You tapped it, so we're playing it.
It's ZDM's Brea and Clint, the podcast.
ZDM's Brean Clint, thanks to KFC.
KFC Summer Bucket is back.
A free reversible bucket hat included while stocks last.
Hi everybody and welcome to the last week of the Brean Clint show before Christmas.
Oh, let's go.
Can you feel it?
Holidays.
They're right there.
You can breathe it.
You can taste it.
You can smell it.
Unless you're a high school teacher, in which case you're late.
Holidays, that was last week, bro.
Oh, but they're doing their lesson plans at the moment.
Yeah, they won't be listening.
They're actually marking at the moment.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Shout out teachers.
I don't know about you, mate.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited for a little break.
But also very excited about the last week of this show.
Exactly.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
We've got some big stuff for the last week of the show.
We've got Tiger King.
We've got Tiger King.
On the phone.
We're talking to Tiger King from prison on Friday.
Isn't that wild?
Claudia said, I said, we were talking about today and said,
oh, is Tiger King interview still happening?
And Claudia's like, yeah, I'll DM him today just to check.
And by DM him, she means message him in prison.
Pussy, yeah.
About our Friday interview.
On his Instagram.
We've also got James Cameron on the show today.
You went and met him in Wellington for the premiere of the new Avatar film.
That's exciting stuff.
And this week we will launch the Bree and Clint Christmas song.
Guaranteed to be the best original radio Christmas song you'll hear this year.
I've not heard another original Christmas song this year.
Like I didn't hear Lady Gaga drop one or the killers put one.
out or Ariana Grande do one.
So could this be the year's
first Christmas original?
Olivia Dean does have one we're playing.
Oh, she does too, yeah, yeah.
Gosh, she's always bloody raining on our parade, isn't she?
That talented human.
If you missed the little taster of our Christmas song,
it's not finished, but this is all we've got so far.
Pickles in the grass, gas bottles empty you get.
If you get, it's been in the pets, come on, come on,
everyone, shake your tickle kids.
Yes, you did hear that correct.
that was, shake your tints or tits.
It's the first D&B Christmas
song ever, maybe.
We're claiming it.
Trady versus Lady continues. It is
pointless. It is a
feta-complee now, but
there's still 50 bucks up for grabs every day.
And how do ladies can still close the gap?
Well, they can't close it. They can narrow the gap.
It'd still be impressive if they
won every day this week. Wouldn't it?
And then you go into
the new year feeling good. Yeah.
So let's go with that.
dial Z-M if you want to play Trady versus Lady.
Play Z-N's Brie and Clint.
It's Trady versus Lady.
Three, two, one.
The scores are done for the year, but we will update you anyway.
Yeah, it's a hard one, because does Trady versus Lady matter anymore?
Arguably no, but it's like you still want to put in a good performance, don't you?
Absolutely, you do.
The ladies are on 99 wins for the year.
The Trades have won the year with 106.
There's five games left, so the ladies could go as close as 104 versus 106,
which would be very respectable, wouldn't it?
It would be.
I mean, would it make up for fumbling the bag after leading all year?
Maybe not.
Maybe not.
But let's see how we go.
Our lady is on the phone from Auckland.
She is 42, and she has her 8-year-old on the back seat who is beyond excited to be part of Trady versus Lady.
So are we.
Welcome to the show, Carly.
Hi, Carly.
Hi.
What's your eight-year-old's name?
Harper.
Harper.
Harper.
Hi, Harper.
Hi.
Hi.
You're on the radio, Harper.
Anything you want to say?
I'm very excited to be on Trady v. Lady.
We're very excited to have you.
What do you want for Christmas, Harper?
A hamster, but we can't have them in New Zealand.
A hamster, but we can't have them in New Zealand.
What a rat do?
A rat do?
A rat do?
How about a rat?
What about a star?
Yeah.
Okay, you're taking on our trading today from Danny Verk.
He's 39 and it was his birthday yesterday.
Oh, my God.
Happy birthday today.
Dave.
Oh, 59.
Hi, Dave.
Hey, how we going?
Yeah, good Dave.
Do you get a good birthday present, mate?
Oh, I most certainly did a train ride excursion through to Napier to the Crab Farm winery.
So it's pretty awesome.
Oh, that sounds like a time and a half.
Not bad.
Dave from Danny Burke, your buzzer's tradie.
Carly and Harper, your lady, first of three,
gets $50 from KFC.
Good luck, guys.
Here we go.
Question number one.
Which Olympic gold medalist was Chris Jenner married to for 22 years?
Lady.
Yes, Carly and Harper.
New name or old name?
Either one.
Either one.
You can choose.
Bruce Jenner.
It was, correct.
Formerly known as Bruce Jenner.
Now, Caitlin Jenner.
One point to the ladies.
Question number two.
What is the recommended?
amount of minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
Is it 5-6?
Lady.
Yes, Carly and Harper.
The next one after 5 to 6, like 7 to 8, 7 to 9?
The next one?
No, Dave, you get the multi-choice.
5-6, 8 to 10 or 10 to 12.
5 to 6.
5 to 6?
It's 10 to 12 for hard, hard-boiled.
Soft-boiled's about 6 and a half if you're playing a long note.
No one's cooking their eggs for 10 to 12.
10 to 12 minute boiled eggs.
People who've got the egg ick.
Oh, that chalkiness of the yellow inside that gives me the egg starts to go grey.
We want the runny yolk.
Okay, no points there.
Question number three.
Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this.
Lady.
Carly and Harper.
Knuckleback.
It is nickel back.
Well done.
You're on the board with another.
Two to the ladies, none to the tradies.
You need this one, Dave, to stay in it.
Question number four, what instrument is used to measure temperature?
Trady, lady.
Dave is in?
That's not.
Dave, Dave, Dave.
Thermometer.
It is a thermometer.
Oh, my God.
Sorry, guys, it's the way the radio works where what we're hearing is different to what you're hearing.
But trust us, Dave was in first there.
We promise you.
We'll keep it fair.
Question number five, name a can food, produce,
by the Wattie's company available Dave again.
Fake beans.
It is baked beans.
Well done.
You have to trust us guys that what goes out on the radio is what we go off and it was
definitely Dave those two times but that was very tight that one.
That was a close one.
Okay, this is the tie break question for the win.
Here we go.
Question number six.
What animal did Brittany Spears famously carry in a performance?
Yes, Carlin Harper.
A yellow python.
She's got it.
Yeah, she was not going to miss out that time.
She's a lady.
The girls, get it done in the end.
Well done.
Awesome.
Dave, Valian effort, mate.
That was a great game.
Unlucky, Dave.
Carly and Harper, it's your day.
Can you make some noise for us?
Girls.
Yay.
Good on you, girls.
Merry Christmas.
Enjoy that 50 bucks, okay?
Thank you.
Ladies, save face.
I've had a hell of a weekend, mate.
One of the best weekends I've had all year, I would say.
Went over to Australia for the Lady Gaga concert.
Let's play a love game.
Do you want love?
And didn't she bring the thunder?
Same stadium as the NRL grand final, wasn't it?
Yes.
Same stadium
Went to the Friday night show
Had tickets
We were seated
We were quite far back
But I mean
Just being there
It's what it's about mate
It's what it's about
I saw everyone got those light out wristbands
Like Coldplay
Yeah
Which is crazy these days
In those big stadiums
And the way it just brings everybody
Into the show is incredible
Oh it just makes it
I reckon
Like it just brings everyone together
Into you know
But it's insane technology
That the wrist band
knows exactly
you are in the stadium and it can just do these, you know?
I have no idea how it works, but it's, it's incredible.
And she was incredible.
I can't sing her praises enough.
Like she, the whole show, it might be one of the best shows I've ever been to.
And it's just theatrical, like every detail on the costuming, the dancing, just everything.
My favourite thing I was telling you off air was she has like a microphone, like a headpiece
microphone, because she does so much dancing.
But the quality
of her microphone, you
could hear every single
word she was singing.
Yeah, right. Like, so clearly.
You know how sometimes
it's not the best, like, with
other singers, but she sang the hell
out of everything. It was so
good. After
the show, straight after the Friday night
show, my partner turned to me
and said, I really want to go
again tomorrow night. And I went,
what? Because that's not something we
do we're not people who go multiple times which normally because we can't afford it yeah and once
we've seen the show we're like great experienced it and on the saturday we were like going back and
forth and we ended up buying tickets last minute for the GA so to be in the mosh pit and we went
again on the saturday night and was a fully different experience how was it a fully different
experience because it's the exact same show because sitting like up in the
the stands and we're quite far away to being in the action in the mosh pit with all these other
people yeah and it was just euphoric like you're just having the best time and everyone around you
like we danced the whole time we sang our hearts out like it was just so much fun oh that's
cool i don't think i could do two in a row i don't think i could go back to a concert well neither
did i i've never been that person because with the songs exactly the same nah she and with the talk
breaks exactly the same.
Nah.
That's good.
Because I'd worry you'd go there
and you'd hear her say the same things
she said the night before
and she'd be like,
I have to tell you,
this must be the most incredible audience
I've ever played her.
And then she says the exact same thing
the next night.
That's one of my favorite things about her.
She's really real.
And she'll change things on the fly.
Like she did.
The set list was pretty much the same
but it was different in bits and pieces.
Yeah.
You know?
One thing that was the same
is how many times
told her little monsters to get their paws up.
That's something.
Get your f***ing hands up.
Get your paws up.
Put your paws up.
You want to stop.
Get your fucking paws up.
Get your hands up.
Put your hands up.
Put your hands up.
Get your hands up.
I don't say hand out.
Now jump.
Well, I guess she's doing all of that.
The least you can do is put your mother efferves.
pausing. I know, right? I've got RSI in my wrist
from how many times it put my paws up. I was here for it, eh? I loved it. I loved every
second of it. Is that your record? I mean, it's not that big, but is that your record? Two shows
from the same tour? Yes. Because we work with people who went to, how many
Erez tour shows did our friend Megan go to? I reckon, I want
to say she went to at least seven. But I could be talking out of turn.
No wonder Taylor Swift made two billion dollars from that tour.
Yeah, she made a billion off her.
Wow.
Yeah, see, that's wild, eh.
Our question for you this afternoon, and it's one for me.
I've never seen the same tour more than once.
How many times did you see the same artist on the same tour?
And it might have been back to back to back nights,
or you might have gone to see them in Australia,
or you might have seen them overseas and seen them back in New Zealand a couple of times,
but you just can't get enough of it.
Yeah.
You're like, no matter how many tickets you could get, you'll see it again.
The same tour, how many times is your record for,
seeing the same tour.
Our friend Rob, who works on the office, followed Radiohead around Australia about 10 years ago.
Like a groupie.
Yeah, like a total Radiohead groupie.
Or I think they call them Creeps, Radiohead fans.
Of course they do.
Yeah, I think he saw five radio head shows.
It's not a bad effort.
Yeah, but man, punish.
Like how much, when you added up, how much you would have spent, I hate to think.
Oh, $800 at them or text us on 9696.
Yeah, can we find the biggest tour groupie?
Yeah.
How many times did you see one tour from one person or band?
And who was that band?
And was it worth it?
And by the end of it, were you sick of it?
There is Franklin.
Freeze fresh back from a double header at Lady Gaga.
Not an intentional double header.
You went for one and ended up going to two Lady Gaga shows.
Yeah, we were so taken.
You were caught up in that.
Caught up in everything that we were like, oh, we've got to go again.
We just got this text.
Someone said thank you guys again so much for my.
my Lady Gaga tickets.
We also thought about buying tickets to the Sunday,
but we were to Povow,
so we listened outside the stadium instead.
Oh, that's cool.
There would have been a group of people doing that.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I saw they had like DJs and stuff outside the stadium.
They had like all kinds of things going on outside the gig.
I saw videos of, um, there was a DJ that got onto the train.
Because you catch a train out to Homebush, um, to a core stadium.
And a DJ has hopped on the train because there's,
just thousands of people getting on these trains
and the DJ has set up
her decks inside this one carriage
on the train and just started
like mixing... Was she the one that put the speaker
in the shopping trolley? Yes, and started mixing
Lady Gaga songs. It looked amazing.
We're talking about how many times you've seen the same show.
Suzanne, you saw someone with impressive
numbers. Is that right? You met someone.
Yeah, I was working in a restaurant
in Sydney since back a long time ago
in 2000. Yeah. And I worked at
the restaurants for the rocks at Circular Key.
and across the harbour, you can walk around to the opera house.
Okay.
And the lady that came in for dinner just before the show,
and she had seen Phantom of the Opera 44 times.
44 times?
Yeah, I worked in that restaurant for about four years,
and even my parents came over twice,
two years in a row to see Phantom of the Opera themselves.
I mean, I'm iconic, and if you're going to see Phantom of the Opera,
to see it at the Opera House.
It's pretty good.
Pretty good.
Exactly, exactly.
Forty-four times.
That was impressive, and I did talk.
about it for years afterwards and yeah it's just funny that you brought that up yeah that's wild i'm
sure people have seen other shows like that like i'm sure there'd be people listening who have seen
wicked like a bunch of times maybe not 44 times they could cast you as the understudy to the phantom
of the opera she'd know every word um thanks susan great story we appreciate it we asked what's your
numbers what's the show you've seen a crazy number of times someone said macklemore and ryan
Lewis. I saw Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland all on the same tour and I would do it all
again. There is something about that Maclemore show, eh? We saw it at one of the last Friday
jams. And that was the same kind of euphoric, everybody together kind of energy that they're able
to put together. So I can understand it. It's such a good show. That's a good choice. I think I'd be
over it by the second or third one. Yeah. I think twice I'd be happy.
Yeah, twice. Yeah. Once, awesome. Twice. I'd be like, oh, I really smashed that.
When you know the exact set list and what's coming up, you've probably seen it too many times.
Someone said, my best mate, Linda, goes to every single Pink concert when she tours,
both in New Zealand and Australia.
I've lost count of how many.
New Zealand, impressive.
Australia, mental.
Because when Pink comes here, she does three or four shows.
Yep.
When she goes to Australia, she does 34 shows.
Yeah, she does 14 to 34.
Me and my best mate have seen Mitch James at least 25 times.
25?
I wonder if they went to that final Mitch James concert.
Surely.
And I wonder if someone who's seen Mitch James 25 times
believes that that was the final Mitch James concert.
Or do they think he'll be back?
I reckon he'll be back.
Yeah, surely.
Someone else said, I've seen Drax Project four times for the same show,
but 23 times in total.
I love Drac's Project, 23 times.
I mean, the saxophone is pretty good.
Yeah, but by that stage, I want, like, a special shout-out in the set.
I want a song.
Yeah.
I'd be like, Sean.
I want a song named after me.
Sean!
It's me, your sister.
There's a girl on Instagram that's a huge 21 pilots fan.
She went to each 21 pilots show in all the different countries and cities for the
Clancy tour, and she's just done the same thing for the Breach America tour.
Wow, so you're spending your life following 21 pilots around the world.
What's a 21 pilot song?
stressed out.
Oh, yeah.
They were huge here for...
They were pretty big around the world for a while.
They're incredible live.
I've never seen them.
Never seen 21 pilots live.
21 pilots.
Oh, yeah.
Vives.
All right, thanks guys.

The tea, live from L.A. with Dean McAfee.
Dean, who from the MKR franchise is in hot water?
Talk about hot water, Bree.
Colin Fasnich has actually been caught,
eventually driving under the influence of a heavy drug.
Not alcohol, a heavy drug.
This is making international news today.
I mean, this is like a really, really major deal.
And, yeah, I think, like, the producers and the network from my kids and rules
are going to have to release a statement very soon because this is really, really major.
He's the Irish one who replaced paleo peat.
Exactly.
And does MKR with Manu.
Heavy drug, people, I saw people were suggesting cocaine was the drug.
Yes. Yeah, that's what people are saying.
in reports online.
It is interesting timing that that happened
because it happened in Australia,
is that right, Dean?
He did a roadside drug test in Australia.
Yeah, that's random drug tests in Australia overseas
and in the USA you need to have like a reason
or like, I think even a warrant or something.
But in Australia they can just obviously do that at whim
and that's what happened.
That's how it played out.
They've just, the timing is interesting
because they've just bought them in in New Zealand today.
The roadside drug testing starts today.
If the police are suspicious of you,
they can do a tongue swab and it takes full.
You have to stay there on the side of the road.
So even the police said they don't have time to swab everybody.
Yeah.
But they're testing for weed, meth, cocaine and MDMA are the drugs that the police will be testing from today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had that test.
I got tested in Sydney.
Yeah.
You can't hear what Dean was saying.
But funnily enough, the only thing that came up was gonorrhea for Dean.
So he was good to go.
You're allowed to drive with gonorrhea.
Were you driving well gone, Dean?
I like that.
He's got a bad high line.
He can't reply.
He can't defend himself.
Huge levels of testosterone and gonorrhea out the eyeballs.
Yeah.
Is it still a tongue swap for the gonorrhea, Dean?
Is it still tongue or?
So you can't reply.
He can't reply.
It's the best.
That's the T with T.
McCarthy, we're back after this on ZM.
The ZM Podcast Network.
Side note, this is not what we're talking about.
I've just had a Celsius.
Have you had a Celsius before?
Never had a Celsius.
That new energy drink thing.
It's meant to be the new thing, Celsius.
I'm more a Fahrenheit girl myself.
Yeah, right, good gag.
I'm absolutely pinging.
Are you?
Oh my God.
I'm off my face on this Celsius.
What, you're really buzzing, are you?
Yeah.
Like...
One of my friends, one of my friends,
had one before she went to bed
thinking it was like electrolytes.
The way I feel right now,
I'm not sure that I'll go to bed before Christmas.
She didn't go to bed, I think, all night.
Maybe she got to sleep at 4 a.m.
No, yeah, no, yeah.
Anyway, I saw someone out in the office before Pixie was having a sales seat,
and she was like, pretty good, eh?
Feels naughty.
I got it from the dairy.
Feel like you need it this time of year, a little pick-me-up.
Anyway, do with that information what you will.
I saw there's a New Zealand version of a very popular app launching.
Okay.
And it's always hard in this situation when the big one already exists.
And you're like, we're going to give it a go.
Can I guess?
Yep.
Grindr.
Nah.
What would a New Zealand version of Grindr be called?
Um.
Shaker?
Something.
No, it's not Grindr.
There's a New Zealand version of Uber about to launch.
Ooh.
Yeah.
That's interesting.
It's called A Ride, and it launches in 17 towns and cities around New Zealand on Wednesday.
Same idea as Uber, just created and owned by a Kiwi, which is good, right?
Yeah.
Love it.
Good stuff.
That's great.
Go Kiwi.
Will it work?
Oh, they should have called it Go Kiwi.
Should have called it Go Kiwi.
Should we get a go Kiwi?
It's quite catchy, go Kiwi.
Will it work?
Nobody knows, but that's not the attitude, right?
You should always try and support the...
Absolutely, support local.
The little guy.
But it's hard to get on board with the one that not everyone else is using, you know?
It is.
Like, you're all heading out to town and someone's like, oh, get us a D.D.
No, you won't.
Just get us an Uber, please.
Is D.D. is still around?
D.D. is still around, yeah.
Because what if you're not on Uber and then someone's like, oh, I'll split the fare with you?
And you're like, oh, I'm not on Uber.
I'll send you my playlist on Apple Music.
No, thanks.
Don't do that.
No.
Please don't.
Please do not share me your Apple Music playlist.
I won't receive it.
Shall we get lunch on Deliver Donkey?
Or whatever.
Deliver donkey?
Absolutely not.
Can we just get a meal delivered by a normal meal delivery service, like what I'm used to?
I'm not saying it's the right attitude, but it is that attitude, isn't it?
I like competition.
Competition is what makes the world.
will go around. I think it's healthy. It's good.
And that's why
me personally, I
continue to use Apple Maps.
Okay. When no one else, I know, look,
I know. No one else is using
Apple Maps. I am. I bully
my wife for Apple Maps as well.
But it's the default if you've got an iPhone, isn't it?
I like it. Doesn't it just automatically put you
on the Apple Maps? I know how to use it.
It's familiar to me.
And it's, to be honest, never led
me astray. And so what if it
made that old man drive down the Spanish steps once.
Apple Maps can't get everything right.
Hey, that's slander.
We don't know if that was Apple Maps, do we?
Probably was.
It wasn't Google Maps.
Also, while I'm at it, I'm also a safari girl.
Oh, you're using the Safari?
Well, you're just Apple through and through, aren't you?
I do.
I have had to get Google, what is it called?
Big fan, obviously.
Obviously.
Google Chrome.
I run both now.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I'm like a bisexual.
Browser.
Browser.
You're by browser.
I'm a buy browser.
Claudia, you're using the alternative, aren't you, to something?
I was going to say I'm one more alternative with my maps.
I'm on ways.
Your own ways.
Are you?
Sometimes.
What's the off-brand thing you're using?
Well, I don't have any kind of smart watch or anything to count my steps, so I'm just on the health app.
Oh, just the internal health app.
Just however it loads.
Maybe that's why it's so low.
I use the health app too.
I heard Fletch for her Haley giving Georgia stick about her garment.
Once they're like, just get an Apple watch.
I'm like, no, Georgia wants the alternative.
Okay, she wants to be on the garment.
She's on the Garmin, yeah.
Lots of people are on the Garmin, okay?
All the Fitzhows are on the Garmin.
I've got nothing against the Garmin.
You guys, every time we need to share a photo around, give me stick
because I can't eardrop on my Samsung.
Yeah, Apple needs to come to the party on that, I think.
Yeah.
You're also not on TikTok.
You're on Instagram Reels.
No.
That's the lamest one for you.
Lame?
Lame.
No, that's just.
Clint will be like, hey, guys, have you seen this trend?
And we're like, yeah, three months ago.
Boomer.
I'm actually on YouTube shorts.
Oh, that's my favorite too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We want to know what the off-brand version is that you use.
All your friends use this one, but you swear that this other one is better.
Yeah.
You're like, guys, it's cheaper.
It's faster.
It's got less ads.
The sound quality is better.
Trust me.
Trust me.
You need to get onto it.
Guys, what do you mean you're not on DISA?
Deezer what?
I saw Tickey Tarnay the other day in an interview
trying to convince people to listen to his music on DISA.
What's DISA?
It's another music streaming platform.
God, he's nuts.
Yeah, yeah.
Deaser nuts.
Disa nuts.
It's Zat M's Bree and Clint Podcast.
A ride that launches in quite a lot of places,
13, 17 cities around New Zealand on Wednesday.
But will people be willing to you?
the one that not everyone else is using.
Someone texted in and said,
didn't we have a Kiwi one called Ola a few years ago?
That's right. Remember Ola?
What happened to Ola? Can I still get an Ola?
Was that a Kiwi one?
Oh, I don't know if it was a Kiwi one,
but I definitely remember Ola.
This is hashtag not sponsored by A-Ride,
but they said their big difference is they'll do the same price as Uber,
but they'll never charge a surge.
Oh.
And God, I hate a surge.
I would love it if they can.
came out and said, we'll pay our drivers better.
The surge...
That'd be nice.
The surge doesn't make any sense.
They're like, I don't understand what the point of the surge is.
It's like...
For them to make more money is the point.
No, I know, but it's not fair.
And the driver, I don't believe the driver makes all that much more money.
Oh, no, I hope they do.
I hope that they do as well.
Cost me $35 to Uber to Rufus from my house.
Cost me $140 to Uber home from Rufus to my house.
Yeah, see, that's ridiculous.
Ment away. Maybe I'll get an A ride. We asked, are you using the off-brand version of something?
Are you brave enough to use the one that not everyone uses? And Claudia, I want you to be brave enough about the one that you were too scared to say before.
I can't so much flack for it. No, stand in your truth, Claudia. Okay. I, when I have baked beans, I don't like the Wattie's ones. I like the cheaper off-brand oak one.
What are you talking about? You prefer an oak.
baked bean.
I think they're nicer.
I don't know if I've had an oat baked bean.
I do know.
I love a waddy's bean.
I love a waddy's bean.
When we were growing up Waddy's beans with a bougie bean and we had a house full
of oaks.
And I think that's why I gravitate towards the Watties now that I have my own money.
Doesn't taste like your childhood.
Yeah.
But again, people just go for the one they know, the Wattie's one.
When we get baked beans, my wife tries to get us to get the Shantal ones.
What's Shant?
Wait, I need to see what this is.
They're organic and they don't have all the same sugar.
and salt in them.
Yuck.
I'm like, but babe, the sugar and the salt are my favorite ingredient.
I don't even care about the beans.
The only flavor left in there.
I want the sugar, the salt and the fake tomato.
Does she not love you guys or something?
No, she says it's because she does love us.
Ooh, these things to love you less.
We ask, are you, yeah, babe, love me a bit less.
I agree.
That's a hate crime for Bert.
Are you using the off-brand versions?
Someone texted and said, everyone's on Strava.
I'm on a runner.
My running group has ostracized me.
Yeah, that's hard.
Because how are they going to see your runs if you're on runner and they're on Strava?
How can you like share them on your social media?
No one's going to recognise what you're sharing.
No, you can't do that trend where you put the map up.
I talked before about how you guys can't eardrop me.
Someone texted in and said Apple is being forced to open airdrop for everyone.
I thought I read something about this.
Now that we've got that, if we get that and now that our charges match,
Because I've been saying this for years.
I'm like, I feel like Apple just needs to bloody get over it
and come to the party and...
If we can share eardrop charges and you don't be racist to us
with the green bubbles anymore.
Oh, yeah.
The green bubble things is a neck.
The green bubbles thing is a neck.
Like you, if you're added to a group chat,
all of a sudden you're not in it and then it's confusing
and then you get outed, you know?
Yeah.
And then you're like, and then Clint's always like...
We know.
And then Clint's always like, hey, game.
Should we bring the chat over to WhatsApp?
Well, actually, it's encrypted, so you should come over to WhatsApp, thank you very much.
No, it's smart, it's good.
Someone said if they launched a Kiwi version of Grindr, it would be called Sizzler.
That's brilliant.
That's pretty good.
Very good.
Someone else said, not off-brand version, but I buy my books and import them over using a Kindle or going to the library.
Everyone thinks on bananas.
You go into the library.
I don't understand the buying your books and importing them over thing.
I feel like people...
It's like Ella the other day, everyone's got a Kindle, right?
Everyone's got a Kindle or the bookies have got a Kindle.
Ella said to us the other day that she wants a Kobo e-reader.
What the hell's a co-bo e-reader?
I think that's the platform that the libraries use.
So if you want to rent a book, you've got to be on the Kobo E-reader.
Right.
One of my friends the other day said that she has seven different e-readers.
And I was like seven.
Why do you need seven?
Because the idea of an e-reader, right,
is that you don't have all these books lying around.
She's going to need a bookshelf for her e-readers.
I think she wanted to have each individual Harry Potter book on each one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And she could put them on the bookshelf.
You know, she's like this one, deadly hello.
Are you on the off-brand version?
Someone said, I'm on YouTube music, guys, not Spotify.
My mate Nixon's on YouTube music, and he won't shut up about it.
That's yuck.
He's like, bro, I got YouTube premium, and you get YouTube music for free.
I'm like, yeah, that doesn't make me want it.
I've got the egg for your friend Nixon.
That's so yuck, Nixon.
You work in radio, get it together.
It's like you can listen to YouTube videos in the car.
Yeah, cool.
I don't want that.
Cool.
I don't want that.
That sounds like something I want to do.
Someone said, I hunt my own meat, though finding the old bullet and a duck breast is a downfall.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah, that's off brand, I guess.
Someone said
Warworth's mellow biscuits are elite
Instead of a mellow puff
They get a Woolworth's mellow biscuit
I've never tried it
But I'd give it a go
Yeah
Why not?
And someone said
Oak baked beans rule
Is that you texting the text machine
Yeah stop texting the text machine
Not this time
But thank you for the support
I prefer Pam's jet planes
They're way better than Pascal's
No arguments
Okay
Interesting
Someone said smarties over M&Ms all day
Smarties do
have a distinctive taste.
I'd argue that Smartis serve a different purpose
to an M. I agree. I would have to agree. And I can't tell you what that purpose
is, Cordia. Neither. They're the same thing, but just like
slightly different. They're not the same. I think a Smarty in my mind has a
slightly thinner shell. I agree. Yeah. And I feel like the
chocolate is a little bit harder. And the colors
are more pastel. And they don't have an M on them. And can
you still get them in a box? Yeah, that's fun. Can't get M&Ms in a box.
Yeah. Um, okay.
Thanks, guys.
If you're off-brand, like we said to Claudia, stand in your truth.
Hey.
You know, Kia Kaha.
You own it.
A ZM's Brinklin podcast.
Welcome to what could be the last ever game of how many.
How many?
How many?
That's a good amount.
We have to get rid of it now that we've said that.
It'll be awkward if it comes back next year.
People will know that we didn't have any better ideas.
That's true.
It's gone.
This is the last game ever.
This is the last one.
What other game?
would you like us to get rid of 9-6-9-6 if you want to text through?
Don't say birthday banger.
Our show's built on birthday day.
Yeah, that one's not going anywhere.
And don't say Friday, okay, we do that one out of spite.
Yeah, people always complain about that one, but it's not going anywhere.
Caitlin's here.
Hi, Caitlin.
Hi, Caitlin.
What's your least favourite part of the Brean Clint Show?
Oh, nothing.
Oh, stop it, Caitlin.
Is this your first time listening?
Wait, no.
Caitlin, you're going to win how many today?
if you have the most something,
and today it's an act that you perform the most, isn't it, Claudia?
Oh, and you put it like that.
Oh, is it an act?
It's an act.
Wait, are we going to talk about that on the radio?
Yeah.
Yeah.
If Caitlin does this act the most each week, she's going to win.
Okay.
The least.
Have you made sure Caitlin's comfortable answering this?
Yeah, yeah, I've checked it by her.
So to win today's game, you want to have the most days between hair washes.
Oh.
So you wash your hair the least.
That's definitely what I thought we were talking about.
Caitlin.
Dirty.
How many days?
Hair.
On average, would you go without washing your hair?
So probably on average, I'd say three days, every three days.
Every three days you're in there.
Every three days, you give it a wash.
Yeah.
Okay.
You now get to choose the person that you go head to head with, excuse the pun.
You need to find someone who washes their hair more frequently than you, who has less
days between hair washers.
Is it me, Clint?
Is it Bree?
Or is it our producer, Claudia?
I'm going to go for Bree.
Bree.
Okay.
The old greasy head, Bree.
I've got an old grease pot on my head, eh?
Oh, no, no.
She thinks you wash your hair more, doesn't she?
Yeah, that means my hair's greased.
Clean-haired, Bree.
Oh, yeah, I see, yeah, yeah.
You have to wash your hair more if it's greasy.
Okay, we're locking in Bree, Caitlin?
Yeah.
Okay. You would have won if you'd selected me. I wash my hair every day.
Do you? Okay.
God.
A lot of shampoo and conditioner.
Yeah, I'd steal it off my wife.
I bet she loves that.
I use that cheap one, the oliplex thing that she's got.
Oh, God.
And the clear bottles.
It looks cheap as.
If you know, you know, and there weren't a few men.
So you would have won with me, however you went with Bree.
Claudia, you?
Caitlin, you also would have won with me.
I wash my hair every second day.
So two days for me.
Oh, okay.
So it's all down to Brie.
It's all down to old greasehead Brie.
I know for a fact, Caitlin.
Bree doesn't cut her hair.
She'll often go a couple of years between haircuts.
I cut up myself, can I say?
I'm washing my hair.
Every six days.
You're kidding.
Unless I'm going to the gym, then it could be every two days.
so Caitlin wins.
You must make that up so Caitlin could win.
Yep.
Oh, I was my own.
Caitlin's a winner.
Caitlin, you're a winner.
Thank you.
We couldn't have you lose just before we kill this game.
God no.
We have to have a winner on the last one.
Yay.
Yay, thanks, Caitlin.
Merry Christmas, Caitlin.
Merry Christmas, thanks.
What's your shampoo of choice before you go?
What do you use?
Are you on the Garnier fructus?
Oh, to be honest, it's just what he was on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Smart, Caitlin.
Spread it around.
RIP, how many?
Last time.
Feels right, though.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That whole segment was awful.
Why do we persist this one?
I don't know.
Play Z-Eames, Bree and Clint.
On Friday, I flew down to Wellington.
I was very lucky to be invited to interview James Cameron,
the writer and director of advertising.
Yeah, the James Cameron.
I got nine minutes with him.
And I was pretty intimidated.
Not ten?
No, not ten.
All you needed was nine?
And nine including your hallows and goodbyes as well.
They're very strict about it.
He's a busy man.
I was fairly intimidated, the idea of going and interviewing the guy who made Titanic.
Pretty big deal.
Yeah.
He is a Kiwi.
He doesn't just live here.
He got citizenship in New Zealand in August just this year.
Was it that recent, was it?
He's lived in the Waira Rapa for over a decade.
Him and his wife ran like an organic vegan food store in Grey Town, I think, or Featherston.
That's so cool.
Like, he's fully entrenched.
He's a Kiwi.
And it was cool to catch up with him about the new Avatar movie Fire and Ash, which I've seen all three hours and 17 minutes of it.
You loved it?
Loved it.
You've got to see it at the movies, though.
And if you can see it in IMAX, see it in IMAX.
You can see it on the biggest screen you can.
Just go and do it.
Ask some bunch of questions.
One of the things I talked to him about was AI.
Because he gets a lot of questions about whether he predicted the rise of AI back in Terminator.
Because people look at SkyNet and they go, well, that is a precursor to AI, isn't it?
I didn't ask him about that because I'm sure he's sick of it.
But he is at pains to point out that nothing in the Avatar movie is created by AI.
Historically on the previous two films, I've sort of hidden the process.
and I did that on purpose
because I didn't want people to think
oh it's people running around in tights
you know what I mean
with a little camera on their head
which is basically how it's done
but I feel like
it's now important that people understand
that it's not generative AI
it's actually done by actors
and it's a very meticulous
and detailed process
that plays out over a period of months
or even years and so this is all coming
from human creation from human emotion
which I think people want right
and they want to know that what they're watching
as real and what they're paying to see is real.
Exactly. It's like a provenance thing, right?
You want that chain of creation back to knowing that there's a human being behind it.
And when something is filmed, for the most part, you know that that's a person.
And so I just think that that chain of creation, that chain of title, back to real human
artist, is critical.
It's a provenance thing, Bray.
Yeah, of course.
I was going to say that, but he took the words out of my mouth.
I very much enjoyed his answer.
I had to pretend I knew what he meant by provenance.
I do go, oh, do you not know?
I would explain it to you, but there's no time.
What else did you ask him?
I talked to him about when you see Avatar, you'll see,
and I don't remember this so much from the others,
but maybe I missed it.
In this one, there is a lot of tribal markings on the main avatar people
and also on some of the water creatures as well.
And a lot of it looks very familiar,
and a lot of it looks very Māori.
And obviously this was shot in New Zealand.
It stars people like Cliff Curtis.
So I talked to James Cameron about those markings.
It's interesting.
I wrote Avatar in 95.
I came here in 94.
And I remembered a lot of the Māori kind of word construction.
And cultural appropriation was not a thing back then.
And so I'm like, I'm going to use some of these words and names.
I'm not directly, not literally, but as an inspiration for the language.
A lot of it will look familiar to New Zealanders when you see it, especially at the tribal markings on Cliff Curse.
Obviously, they're not Māori, but they're...
They're inspired.
by as opposed to appropriated from.
And I've spent a lot of time talking to Cliff about this.
And I said, all right, at what point are we honoring and celebrating,
and at what point are we taking something?
And he said, I can talk you through this.
And he did.
But you know how I got Cliff to be in the movie?
How?
I showed him a picture of the character with the full moco and everything,
which was, again, just made up.
It was our own version of it.
He said, I'm in.
I said, do you want to read the script?
I said, sure, but I'm in.
He's in.
Let's be real.
Cliff Curtis was always going to be in.
Regardless.
Yeah, but it gives clout to it.
James Cameron asked you to be in the third Avatar film.
You say yes.
Claudia's putting that whole interview out if you are a James Cameron fan
as a special podcast on our channel so you can listen to all nine minutes with him.
God, he just seems like the coolest guy.
He was lovely.
He just seems real warm and down to earth.
and he's like, James Cabaret.
There was a little, I got a little, well, not a scoop because I didn't realize at the time.
As I was leaving the room, I said to him, oh, see you for Avatar 4.
Because this was Avatar 3, and he's doing 5, right?
And I said, oh, see if Avatar 4.
See you for Avatar 4.
Oh, yeah.
Well, we'll see.
We'll see.
I'm keeping my options open.
At the time, I was like, oh, I'm not getting invited back.
That's what that means.
What it actually means, and it's in the news today, is he has said that that might be the last Avatar film,
this Avatar 3.
He said people aren't going to the movies anymore,
so it might not be viable to make these enormous productions anymore.
Oh, that's sad, but hey, never say never.
You don't know what's going to happen.
Avatar, Fire and Ash is out now.
In cinemas, you can go and watch that.
And like I said, sit on the biggest screen that you can.
Is it out now, Cordia, or is it out on Thursday?
On Thursday, the 18th.
It's out on Thursday, so pre-book your tickets.
ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast.
If my kids are listening at the moment, can you not?
turn it off because I'm going to talk about Christmas.
Christmas.
But let's be real, they're not listening.
They're probably watching Moana.
Yeah, they don't listen to this show.
They've got taste.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We talked a couple of weeks ago about whether we should get a tramp.
And we've got tramp horror stories.
Do you remember?
Yeah, tramp horror stories for sure.
But the new tramps aren't nowhere near as dangerous.
Yeah, you say that.
People kind of disagreed.
No, not people.
Like one person.
Well, I ignored all the text.
and we've got a tramp.
I got them a tramp for Christmas.
Now all you need is a lady.
And it's not...
That was good.
The tramp is from mum and dad.
I don't know what Santa is going to bring,
but the tramp is from mum and dad.
And it still needs to be a surprise, though.
So I've done the thing that a lot of parents do
and probably regret when they're doing it.
I've committed to building the tramp on Christmas Eve
after they go to bed.
Why are you doing it on Christmas Eve?
So that it's a surprise on Christmas morning.
I know, but couldn't you give yourself at least one day buffer?
How?
Like, I don't know, you've got a big yard, put it together somewhere they don't go.
See how you go.
It's not a farm.
Like, I can't put it on a paddock that they don't visit or something.
What about in the garage?
It's a tramp.
Yeah, how big is a tramp?
No, it's too big to do in a garage.
You've got a double-car garage, haven't you?
They've got the net up on the side of it.
But that's when we park the car.
Oh, the bloody safety net ruins everything, eh?
Anyway, I've committed to building this tramp on Christmas Eve.
I think it's a mistake.
I know you do.
If it was someone else, like if my dad, Big Steve,
if he said to me, look, I'm going to build this trampoline on Christmas Eve,
I wouldn't even bat an eyelid, I'd go, sweet, you'll be fine.
It's why I could never marry a woman like you,
because I could not handle being constantly compared to your very capable father.
You know?
anything I did you'd be like
my dad could have done that better
my dad is like next level capable
I know he's from a different generation
he can do it all he's a farmer
he's a farmer he has those hands
when you shake them and you're like
and you're like oh you know how to do shit
callousy hands
I was at a 40th birthday
for a friend on the weekend
and I talked to a friend of mine
who is also very capable
got it he's one of those guys
yeah and he goes oh I put a tramp together
you'll be fine
You're real practical, eh, Clint.
Oh, so he knows you as well.
And he said that in front of his wife,
who also knows me, and she laughed.
And I was like, hey, come on.
You can't, I understand my limitations,
but I'm committing to it anyway.
But this is the thing.
I don't think you can't do it.
That's not what I'm saying.
I think you can do it.
I just think it could go badly.
Yeah.
But eventually you'd put it together.
I just don't know if all.
in one night is a good idea.
So someone's just texted and they said,
Rookie, Clint, it took me three days
to build our tramp.
They aren't as easy to put together as the old ones.
Holy smokes.
But I mean, what's the worst case scenario
that I get half built?
And on Christmas morning there's half a tramp there?
I think concentrate on building the bottom part
because that's the main part
and leave the safety net off.
You reckon build it from the ground up?
I think so.
I think that's quite good to.
advice.
Because let's be real, if you've put the safety net together
and the bottom parts, you haven't.
Yeah, that's real disappointing, eh?
You're not doing much with that, are you?
You're like, here, girls, here's a safety net.
Let's put, it's like a play pen and they have to run around in there.
Most parents drink while they get the Christmas presents ready on Christmas Eve.
There's like a, there's a, there's an equilibrium to be achieved, I feel,
when alcohol consumption versus tramp construction.
I remember my dad, this is one of my core memories as a kid.
We got, from Santa, Santa delivered the Barbie horse float.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, the Barbie horse float.
And we wanted to play with it right then and there.
And Santa doesn't put things together.
No.
And I'll never forget, dad spent, I reckon three quarters of Christmas day.
Swearing at the Barbie horse float.
He was trying to put this damn horse float together.
and then him with the stickers
trying to put the stickers
like, oh, god damn it.
Anyway, it's the magic of Christmas.
It is.
It is the magic of Christmas.
People are texting in saying,
geez, Clint, tramp's a two, three-man job.
Yeah.
Have you got a mate that you can invite over?
Not on Christmas Eve to put together a tramp.
People will be busy.
People busy.
Oh, you know what?
You could call Big Steve.
Would he help?
Yeah, I reckon he would manage.
My dad's so capable.
He'd manage to fly here, put the tramp together.
and get back for Christmas Day.
And he'd probably prefer I didn't help.
Probably prefer you stay out of it, yeah.
Dead is Brankland.
The rumour mill suggests that Taylor Swift gave some of her dancers
a $750,000 bonus check.
It's in the new doco, but they've beeped out the amount that she gave.
The internet has gone to work lip reading,
and they believe one of the dancers' mouths $750,000.
I just remembered something.
Do you remember the Katie Perry
Taylor Swift feud.
Yes.
Where the rumours were that they were feuding and they didn't like each other because
Katie Perry stole one of Taylor Swift's dances.
Or some of her dancers, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And imagine if you were one of those dancers that went across to Katie Perry.
Oh, you'd be kicking yourself.
And then you see this in the news.
Yeah.
Oh, got it.
Yeah.
But, I mean, Katie might be giving out some big bonuses too from the PRISM tour.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
The PRISM tour was like 15 years ago.
I'm just trying to, I'm trying to make them feel better, okay?
So we asked, do you or have you got a big bonus before?
You were saying that a lot of companies give out Christmas bonuses.
I thought that maybe it was like an American thing.
Nah, I reckon they do.
I thought it was just the plot line to Griswold's family Christmas.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Such a good movie.
Such a good movie.
And you were correct.
People are pouring in with their Christmas bonuses.
So if you don't get one, prepare to feel jealous.
We'll start with Hamman.
because you said ham.
At my old job,
we used to get a Christmas ham
and a $500 gift card.
How bloody good.
Did you see the one where someone said
they got a Christmas ham every year?
Yeah.
It says here,
our company are not giving out hams this year.
I've been there 12 years
and I've gotten a ham every year
and I was kind of counting on it.
Oh.
That sucks.
That really sucks.
You know who would ruin the ham thing?
Who?
Vegans.
They're like, well, they could get,
they could get a Christmas corn.
Oh, you get Christmas corn.
Yeah, Christmas corn.
Claudia, we don't bother you enough for being vegetarian,
mainly because we've got the buffer of Ella being the vegan here.
But she's away, so you will face our wrath.
If we were offered a Christmas ham as a bonus,
and it was universal, there was all the company was willing to offer,
how would you react?
I don't want it.
Like, I'll regift it.
Someone will end up with it.
But will you take it?
Yeah, I'll take it, but I don't want it.
What about?
Will you force the company to give you something else?
Give me the cash equivalent.
You could get a Christmas cauliflower.
Yeah.
The company can't give you the cash equivalent
because then they'd have to reveal to you
the bulk-buye ham price that they got.
Give me the $20 it cost then.
I don't mind.
20 bucks, that's a good deal.
I'd rather nothing.
We got a 900 gram pentaton today
for the first time in 18 years.
A panatone.
It looks like bread or cake.
Yeah, it is.
A panatone is.
It's fancy bread or cake.
beautiful and it lasts ages too
oh is it not the pentatone bakery thing
where the croissants that you put in the oven
and they rise is it something different
what? Paneton those ones you get
Paneton I thought that was like a bike that you did exercise on
that's a peloton oh I thought
Paneton was those croissants that you get from New World
in the box yeah there's a brand of that
A panatone is Italian and it's like this
it's like a big loaf
It's got that paper on the outside.
Yeah.
You pull the paper off.
Will you accept one of those instead of a ham, Cordia?
I would actually love one of those.
That's a great idea.
Everyone's happy.
Work bonuses.
We got taken to Metallica in a corporate box with food and drinks provided,
and we got to bring our partners.
Hell yeah.
That's awesome.
Can I have that one instead of the Panatoni?
Bogan bosses are the best because they go, what are the people want?
What about this?
No panatoni coming from a Bogan boss.
No.
Our Christmas bonus is a full.
Five full-size rolls of I-fil-it, how bloody good, worth $1,000 plus a $200 Woolies voucher.
Oh, that's pretty good.
Your work respects you.
Because that sorts out Christmas lunch, or at least a good part of it.
Guys, it's not a work bonus, but I finally left my husband after 20 years, and I got 200 grand from the house sale, which is a shit done more than him.
So definitely a bonus, money and a life.
Hell yeah.
Happy for you.
Happy for you.
As someone who's done payroll for about 20 years,
yep, plenty of people do get bonuses every year.
They're also always the highest paid employees.
I've never, in all my years,
received a single dollar as a bonus,
but I had to give it out to the higher paid employees.
Hashtag, eat the rich.
God.
The bloody payroll people would have the best tea.
They know the secrets.
Every company, wouldn't they?
Someone said, my husband worked for a small business
that used to give out $500 Christmas bonuses.
I work for a corporate company
and we get a box of cherries
to share between 10 of us.
No, not to share.
Like a box of cherries.
Do you have to scoop your cherries
into your own systemer and take them home?
Stink.
That's so stink.
Everyone at our work gets a $350 supermarket card.
There's about 35 people at my work.
That's a lot of money for your bosses to spend
and that's cool.
Yeah.
350 bucks.
That's your Christmas shopping done.
That's awesome.
Someone else said, when I worked for a company in Squatland,
we got $200 cash and an overnight spa night trip in a posh hotel.
All expenses paid.
That's not bad.
I'm getting so jealous.
Me too.
I get Christmas bonuses every year.
It's gone up to a thousand dollars every year that I've been there,
and this is my ninth year with the company.
So they pay you.
This person's work pays them $1,000 per year of service at Christmas time.
You know what I love about that?
That's a loyalty bonus.
Yeah.
You know?
The longer you've been there, the more you get.
I got a $30 fuel card a couple of years ago.
Loll.
I used to get 10% of my salary as a Christmas bonus.
Now I'm a tradie and I get a high five.
Oh.
Was there money in the high five?
Like a cash money high five?
My husband got a $45,000 bonus.
What does he do?
I wonder where they work.
What does he do?
Yeah.
Someone said, I work.
Oh, he'll be one of Taylor Sliffs' Dances.
He would be.
Yeah.
Congratulations on there.
Someone else said, I work, I get a Christmas bonus, $300 cash and $150 liquor voucher.
Oh, okay.
Covering all the bases.
Bromond's here.
Lick a land.
Lick a land.
Sorry, I missed the land part out.
Bronny's here.
Hi, Bronwyn.
Hi, Bronwyn.
Hi, how are you guys?
Good, thank you.
What was your Christmas bonus, Bronwyn?
So mine's fully the other way.
This was a couple years ago.
We got given car charges with the company logo on them.
Like a jump, jumper leads.
Car charges.
Like that you plugged your phone into?
Oh, even worse.
Yeah, yeah.
And they sent it in the post.
Everyone got given it in the post as well.
Yeah, because they didn't want to see your face when you open it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they would have gone, you guys, Christmas prisoners in the mail,
and you would have gone, oh my God, a check.
How bloody good.
Yeah.
God, this does have the Griswold's family Christmas written all over it.
Does, doesn't it?
Oh, well.
Do you still work there, Bronny?
No, no, I'm just stay at home, Mom, now.
I'm shocked you didn't stay around.
ZD.M.'s Branklin.
Snoopy's Christmas.
I feel like once I've heard that
and the Pogues, Fairytale of New York,
then it's truly Christmas for me.
It is all.
Well, they haven't heard our Christmas song yet.
Yeah, people on the text machine,
a lot of love for Snoopy's Christmas.
It's a great Christmas song.
There's no doubt about it.
Someone's their best Christmas song.
Yeah.
Well, just, just wait because you haven't heard ours yet.
Prickles in the grass, gas bottles empty you get.
If your gear has been in the pits, come on, come on, everyone, shake your tickle-tits.
That's all you got so far.
The red baron would be rolling in his grave.
That's all you got.
Wednesday.
The full release Wednesday.
We will pitch it to Mama Die very soon as well.
She hasn't heard.
Okay.
Shake your tinsle tits.
We'll see what Mama Di thinks about.
All I want to my birthday is a birthday banger.
Birthday banger right now, though.
Number one songs when you turn 16.
You give us your birthday.
We figure it out and then we'll play our favorite one.
Let's go to Jason first.
Kio to Jason.
Hi, Jason.
Kio de Fano.
Jace, tell me, mate.
What is your day to birth?
14th of April, 1976.
Especially baby in April.
Yeah, Jason.
I need to win.
I'll be the oldest person here.
But second-time caller, long-term listener.
Oh, we don't have a sting for that one.
Oh, we need to get one made.
Second-time listener.
Second-time caller.
We appreciate you calling back, Jase.
You were sick today in in 1992.
And on the 14th of April, 92, this was at the top.
Oh, this will go off at your 50th next year, Jace.
I would love to win.
Oh, this is a bang.
Jason
Just don't jump too high at your 50th
You might put your neck out or something
You know
Do an ACL
I might knock myself out of my boobies
Yeah
That was a visual
Thank you for that Jason
With your tints and tints
Your tints or tints
Wait there
We're going to do a birthday banging for Ratchna
Hi Rachna
Hi Ruchner
Hi
What have you been up to today mate
I just came back from
Taking the kids to the swimming lessons
And they want
Every time on Monday
They want me to call up
Oh, well, you've done it and you're on the air, Rachna,
so let's hope that it's a good birthday banger for you.
Yes, let's hope so.
Nothing like getting peer pressured from your kids.
What is your birthday?
Um, ever?
13 January, 1988.
Oh, well done.
You said that perfectly.
That means mum was 16 in 2004, and on that day, this was at the top.
You get Baby Bash and Sugar Sugar.
I don't know that it's one the kids are going to vibe with too much,
but it's about you, Ruch.
No, what do you reckon?
I should look at the first one better.
Okay.
Yeah, okay.
We hear you.
Fair enough.
I like that one from Baby Bash.
Wait there, guys.
One more birthday banger for Sof.
Kiyoda, Sof.
Hi, Sof.
Kiyota, guys.
How are you?
Good, mate.
How was your weekend?
Oh, full.
Oh, so great.
Thank you.
It's this time of year, isn't it?
Yeah, it is.
Full to the brim.
Hey, what is your birthday?
What is this September, 1979?
All right, that means you were 16, Sof, in 1995.
And on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Oh, wow.
Coolie-old.
Gangsters Paradise.
What do you reckon, Sof?
Yeah, I actually had that CD.
Did you?
Because you did. It's your birthday banger.
Okay, wait there. We've got to vote for either Jason's
Criss Cross, Ratchez, Baby Bash, or Sof's Coolio.
Good line-up today. I like them all.
I do too.
I'll be voting for Chris Cross.
I think I've got to go with our second-time caller, Jason.
Chris Cross is the winner.
You've done it, Jace. Congratulations.
Legends.
You are welcome, mate.
Hey, call back for your third time.
We'll be ready with our...
with our very own sting, third-time caller.
Third-time caller, long-time listener.
No worries, babe.
You have a good afternoon.
From the year 1992,
here's a birthday banger from Chris Cross on Zidem.
ZDM's Breed and Clint podcast.
That's the winner of birthday banger today from Chris Cross.
From the year 1992, it's called Jump Jump Jump.
They were 12 and 13 years old when that song came out.
Are you serious?
And both called Chris.
I get it, Chris Cross.
Chris Mac Daddy and Chris Daddy Mac.
12 and 13, yeah.
And their whole thing was they wore their clothes backwards.
That's right.
That was their thing.
Yeah, makes me appreciate that song even more.
12 and 13.
Yeah, that's wild.
They're like Lord.
Yeah.
I mean.
Some even more impressive.
Lord wasn't that much older.
Next on the show, you want to get your mum on
to picture this Christmas song that we're putting out.
Yeah, look, this is, it's coming out on Wednesday,
hopefully if I get it done in time.
I've been frantically working behind the scenes
trying to get it organized,
the Brian Clint Christmas song.
And I feel like we need to run it past Mama Die.
How much has she heard?
She's heard nothing.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I don't even know if she knows we're putting it together.
No, she does, because she really encouraged us to do an Elvis style.
That's right.
But I think that's all she knows.
And I don't think this could be further from an Elvis song.
Yeah.
Did Elvis ever do any D&B?
A drum and bass?
A drum and bass?
A drum and bass?
Nah, I don't think that was on his Christmas special, eh?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I thought it was on the second release.
Maybe at one of his Vegas residencies, yeah.
Either way, we'll get your mum, Mama Di on the show next to review the Christmas song.
The ZM Podcast Network.
A few weeks ago, I said to you guys,
I think there's a gap in the market,
an opportunity for the Bray and Clint show
to release our own original Christmas song.
And over the last couple of weeks,
we've crowdsourced some ideas
of what people want in the Christmas song.
That's been great.
Then we were trying to decide on the genre,
which we didn't see eye to eye on that.
No, you said it was a discussion,
but it wasn't.
You already knew what you wanted.
You said a country song,
and I said,
what about the first ever drum and bass Christmas song?
And I said, it sounds like you've already made up your mind.
And I said, well, I'm going to probably go ahead and do that anyway, so let's do that.
Someone who hasn't been involved that much is Mama Die,
but I feel like at this point in the process, we need to involve her.
Bring her in.
And bring her into the conversation.
At the very last minute.
Yeah.
Merry Christmas, Mama Die.
Welcome to the show.
Merry Christmas, guys.
I hope you're going well.
Yes, we are, mum, we are.
Now, look, when we first started talking about this Christmas song,
you wanted it to be and resemble and have like a nod to the Elvis Presley Christmas album.
Is that correct?
Absolutely.
If it hasn't got at least a bit of a flavour in there,
I don't know if I'm going to be that happy, Brianna.
Okay, okay.
So look, I'll say off the top,
There's not, but I feel like you're going to love it.
Okay.
Are you familiar with the genre of music, drum and bass, Mama Di?
Yes, yes.
How would you, she's not?
Mom, oh, she's not.
How would you describe drum and bass?
Well, I don't know if it's suitable for a Christmas song.
Okay, well, maybe she does know drum and bass.
That's what a lot of people have said to me, you know.
I've ignored all those comments
because I think this is where we need to be.
That's a surprise, Brianna?
Mum, we do have a little snippet.
The very first parts of some of the chorus
that we can play for you.
And then we just want to get your thoughts.
Okay, I'm open.
Honesty.
We need honesty from you, okay, Dye.
Honesty is the best policy.
Here it comes the original Brea and Clint Christmas song.
Just a little snippet.
Prickles in the grass gas bottles empty you get
If your gear has been in the pits
Come on, come on
Everyone, shake your tickle tits
Mom
What do you think?
What do you think?
Is that the chorus?
No, it's the pre-chorus.
It's the pre-chorus
And it's about to really send it
And I don't know if you picked up on the exact lyrics there
But the song is titled
Shake Your Tinsletits
Well, it gives a new meeting to Rudolph the red nose
Rain did, doesn't it?
If you say so, Di.
If you say so.
Oh, my goodness.
I tried to take what the rest of it's going to be like that.
Oh, Mom, you wait.
It's going to blow the roof off this place.
It's going to blow your tinsletes off.
Bree, you'll be home for Christmas.
Will you commit to at least playing this once
for the whole family at Thomas L. Family Christmas?
must die. Well, I think it'll
have to be about 12 o'clock at night
on Christmas night after we've had
a few. We'll go Elvis, Elvis, Bing Crosby,
Boubley, Tinsel Tits.
Yep, Elvis. And then Elvis.
To round out the night.
Oh, my goodness, me, Brown. I mean, that's
creative, but that's ridiculous.
I think she's into it.
I think she's an endorsement. Yeah.
Yep.
Records in the grass.
Gas bottles empty you get. If you get
has been in the pants.
Come on.
Everyone, shake your tick-a-tip-tits!
Oh, she didn't join in.
Oh, come on, Mum.
Wednesday, song drops Wednesday.
Talk to you then, Mama-Dye.
Breanna, it better have the lasagna in it,
or you'll be in trouble, really in trouble.
Hum, I've already put the double-ds in there.
I can't get the lasagna in there as well.
I'm sorry.
