Yeah. And I don't agree with that. I think TV's changed a lot. Like, there's big stars on TV now. But back in the day, back in the day, you were on TV because you couldn't get into the movies. Really? Yeah.

Not anymore, eh? No, not anymore. There's big glitzy glam TV shows. Now no one's going to the movies. Yeah. And so all these TV, movie stars are doing TV shows. Big movie stars. They were all there at the Emmys yesterday.

Adolescence was the big winner from what I saw. Yeah, I think Severance. did pretty well. Severance did okay. The Pit, picked up some awards. It's a fantastic show. You can stream that on neon right now. But one of the stars

didn't even make it to the award show. She was meant to go, but didn't make it after a very bad allergic reaction. Sophia Vergata from Modern Family. Yes. Revealed on Instagram

that she was rushed to the ER after suffering a crazy allergy on her way to the Emmys. She was on her way to the Emmys and was like, what's going on? And her eye blew up like a balloon and she had to go to the hospital. Who knew? Missed the whole show. Who knew? She would have been nominated for Griselda.

Oh, yeah, Griselda. That one where she plays the mob wife. She's great in that. Yeah. She's really good in that. But yeah, then she posted another photo of her in the ER room. And she said that she was okay, but it was pretty wild. She didn't say what the allergy was from.

I'm assuming makeup, maybe fake eyelashes. Yeah. That would be my best guess. Have you ever had an allergic reaction so bad that your face swelled shut? Because I have. Oh. I'm violently allergic to Ross Boss's cat. But I didn't know that.

This desert cat that they brought back, literal desert cat, they bought back from Dubai when they were living over there. They found it on the street, eating out of a rubbish bin. So they adopted it. And then when they moved back to New Zealand, they bought it with them. God knows how it got past border security, but it did. Would it have had to quarantine? Yeah.

Yeah, but still, it's still some mangy desert cat, and it's here now. And you're highly allergic. Yeah, we went over to watch the rugby. And my face, there's a photo of it, my face swelled closed. I looked like I had been stung by a million bees. Wow. Yeah. That's hectic.

Yeah. That's so crazy because I'm allergic with something to do with Ross as well. Yeah. He's bullshit. Yeah, you just won't. You can't go anywhere near a day. Every time he comes in the room and starts talking, I'm just like, oh, my allergies playing up. And that's not that unusual to be allergic to a cat.

But my friend Matt has an unusual allergy. his whole life he's loved Wattie's tomato sauce and then one day out of the blue something within him changed he had Wattie's tomato sauce on his fish and chips and his whole lips blew up he looked like he'd used one of the Kylie Jenner lip-hits Yeah I've heard of this happening

He looked like one of the girls off Geordie Shore Yeah had too much lip filler The only way is Essex Where you can one day wake up and have an allergy He's got it And it can go the opposite way Did you know that? But how are you meant to know?

Because you'd be too terrified to try. I literally watch this TikTok and I'm not condoning this. I'm not saying to do it at all. Don't try this at home. But this guy who said from when he was really young had a shellfish allergy, which can be quite deathly. And he was like, I'm just going to try it. I'm just going to try it.

He had an EpiPen. I still don't condone it. Don't do this at home? He did. He had people with him. ate some crab and something else another shellfish

and he was fine oh well good for him weird eh I was kind of hoping for the story to go the other way where you're like you reap what you sow yeah yeah yeah swell up crab boy

we've talked about this before and we find it very interesting people's unusual allergies not your bees cats dogs shellfish gluten gluten because they're not that No, it's not that unusual.

Horses, I feel like it's quite common. Yeah. I'm allergic to horses. We want to talk to the people. Last time we did this, we talked to a lady who was allergic to water. Yeah. She could not have water touch her skin. She can't shower.

Wild, eh? Wild. So if you have an allergy like that, a strange allergy, can you tell us about it this afternoon? Yeah, what is your strange, unusual allergy? That is Franklin. I love this topic. Yeah, it's quite interesting, isn't that? interesting the stuff that comes through that you don't expect.

Yeah, what is your unusual allergy? The world yesterday saw Sophia Vigara from Modern Families face swell up. It means she couldn't go to the Emmys. She didn't tell us what her allergy is. No. But we want you guys to tell us what your unusual allergy is. We're not talking your normal allergies. No.

You're more common ones. We're not talking bees and cats and dogs and dairy. Dairy? Yeah. Dairy is a pretty common one? Is it an allergy or just an irritability? I guess there's an allege, isn't there? Well, technically it's an intolerance.

Intolerance. Right. Well, we'll take intolerances, if they're weird. Gemma's here. Hi, Gemma. Hi, Gemma. Your one's come through quite a bit, actually, and I've never heard of this before. Well, neither had I.

What is it, Gemma? Tell us what you're allergic to, Gemma. I'm allergic to the sun as of last summer. Wow. What do you mean since last summer? This is something that's developed. It's new. Yeah, so I'm not a spring chicken.

I am 50. I put a face. serum on and the sun and the serum got together but after a few weeks it wasn't the cream anymore it was the sun alone so now I have to cover my arm put a big hat on keeps the sunscreen yeah do you think it was the face serum that activated your sun allergy yes correct it is oh my god how angry are you at that face serum company and it was a flash brand too let me tell you oh my god have you had that confirmed that it was the face serum that's just your incline.

Well, ironically, off to Pory Rua for patch testing to check next week. Oh, my God. Well, best of luck, Gemma. That's quite a difficult allergy to manage, I'd imagine. Well, yeah, not fun. Love the sun. I bet. Have you watched Twilight?

Because... No. Maybe I'm a vampire. Yeah. You should get together with that, Edward Bloke. You'd make a good couple. You guys could stay inside during the day and just rave at night time, you know? Clearly.

Yeah. Thanks, Gemma. We appreciate it. We're asking what you're weird. allergy, someone texts and said, my friend is allergic to her own body hair. What? Wow. How do you deal with that?

What, like, does she get heaps of ingrown hairs? Does she get rashes? Does she get itchy? Does she get her whole body lays it off? How do you... That's so weird. Yeah, she'd be like a seal. Like a slippery dip. You have to bathe in that neater cream. She just have to literally get her whole body

waxed. Get a flamethrerer, run over her body lightly. Yeah. Singe off all the hair. Nicole's here. Hi Nicole. Hi Nicole. Hi. Unusual allergies. What are you got for us? I'm allergic to something in the ocean. Oh no. So what? Every time you go in the ocean, you have an allergic reaction? Break out on hives. So I live on antihistamines during the summer. Does that solve it? If you have a pop an antihistamine, you can go in the ocean?

Yeah. Yeah. At least that's a solution, I guess. Did you find this out later in life? Or have you always been allergic to the ocean? No, I found that out of my 20s on a dive course Oh, that's a bad time to find that out Are you alluded to all salt water or just seawater? All salt water that I've been in In New Zealand, Australia Yeah, Italy, Fiji

Buzzi Of matter, all the ocean Oh, you poor thing That sucks, thanks for sharing Nicole, we appreciate it Someone said, I'm allergic to paracetamol Makes headaches very interesting for me Yeah That's awful

I know you guys said unusual allergies, but how about this? I'm anaphylactic to all tree nuts, peanuts, eggs, dairy and I'm celiac. I also have an intolerance to dust mites, grasses, apple and animal fur. Sounds like you're allergic. Jesus. To the earth. Yeah.

Sounds like Bubble Boy. Remember that movie Bubble Boy? Yeah, put you in a bubble. Poor bubble boy. By this stage, hop in a bubble. What about this one? I'm allergic to women. Bailey Greeks.

Are you really? I wonder if Bailey is either gay. Yeah. Or... Because I don't think that's an allergy. I think that's what you were saying before. I didn't think that's an intolerance to women. Oh.

Yeah. Yeah. But I don't want to speak for Bailey. No. How about this? We asked what's your unusual elegy. Someone said, guys, I'm allergic to raw carrot. I get a tingle in my lips and it affects my asthma.

But I can eat cooked carrot with no issues. What the hell? That's weird. Fascinating. Someone said I'm allergic to chlorine. Oh, yeah. Someone else said their friend is allergic to chlorine and they're a swimmer. Oh, that sucks.

That makes it quite hard. Hi, I'm highly allergic to hair dye. My head legitimately looks like an alien. And I'm not sure why, but I keep trying just in case it goes away. That can be quite common. They said anaphylaxis, who? That's why they always say to test dyes on a patch of skin before you use it. But this person really wants their hair dyed, so they just keep trying.

Yeah, what do they do? Surely, I mean you try and figure out hair dyes that don't have certain things that you're allergic to in it. How bad is your natural hair color that you have to keep persevering with something that makes your body swell up like an alien? Yeah. Someone said, I am bubble boy. Oh, wow. You're that allergic. I am the bubble boy.

Someone said, I get a rash from exercise. You pretended that you got that for a while, eh? I think that's chaf. No, I thought I did. No, I can't exercise. I get all rashy. No, but it turned out it was just chaf. It was just chaf and just general redness.

Yeah, general breechroot face. Some breachroot. Someone I work with is allergic to their ink in their tattoo. What? That's already in their body. Does that mean when they got the tattoo? Oh. That their body, like, rejected the tattoo.

I've heard of that happening. And it, like, scabs over and it goes all yuck. Yeah, buzzy. There's so many of these. honestly, it's unreal the amount of things that people are allergic to. People saying they're allergic to ibuprofen, a lot of nut allergies. And quite a few sun allergies as well. Someone said, my friend is allergic to cold.

No ice cream swimming in the wintertime. Wow. Move. Move. What a great reason to move somewhere warm. What's that thing where your hands go like a different colour? Rheenards. Yeah. Is that like... Or neuropathy.

Would you say that's being allergic to the cold? Yeah. Kind of, eh? I guess it is, yeah. All right, Brian Clinton, we're back next with the T on that Taylor Swift story. Is she now operating behind bulletproof screens? Like the Pope? Yeah, like the Pope.

That's what the stories are saying and we'll get to that in the T next. Z-D-N's Brian Clint. Don't make fun of me, okay? I'm just doing my job. Yeah, Claudia, that's not nice. Just being a professional over here. Thank you very much. This is the tea.

Well, what people can't see is off air, I ask the team, if you could change one thing about your appearance, what would you choose? And I said, I'd love to have naturally, really olive skin. Yeah. And then Claudia was like everything. And then Clint goes, I think I'm good. Yeah, I do.

I wouldn't change your thing. Yeah, I love myself. Right, it's not like that. Not like that. Not like that. No, not like that. I'm happy. No, no.

No, no. We know. I'm comfortable in the skin I'm in. I've already said it now. Don't worry about it. Hey, this is the story about... In the morning or the night. Taylor Swift, okay?

She's attended her fiancé's football game, which is not unusual in and of itself. She was at Arrowhead Stadium to watch Travis play football with her mum. They're both there. The unusual bit is that her... and her mum were escorted to their VIP box behind these two metre high screens and people think that it was a safety precaution

and the screens were potentially bulletproof screens and she may have beefed up her security in the wake of the shootings that have happened in America. Yeah, the Charlie Kirk shooting. I believe it. I have no doubt. Can you imagine what that would create in your mind like when the country's going through something like that, she would be terrified.

I understand that, but I don't believe it because I feel like she would have such a huge security team that if they actually had any inkling, there was danger or a threat to Taylor Swift, she just wouldn't be there. She wouldn't go to the football game. It's not the Super Bowl. It's just another football game.

I guess when everything's heightened and it would be at the moment, maybe, you know, you just take extra precautions. It's a weird way to travel, though. screens that I'm talking about, they're not glass. It's not like see-through glass that she's walking behind. It's like she's walking in, you know those like foldable screens that

people get changed behind in like 1920s films? A modesty screen. Yeah, yeah. The Pope's been travelling behind bulletproof glass for years. Yeah, he has, yep. And I guess now Taylor Swift is following suit. It'd be horrible. Situations like this remind me how lucky we are to live in the country

we live in? A hundred percent. You know, where we don't have those same worries that they would have every day. And especially, you know, if you're someone like Taylor Swift, the extra precautions and security and how much you have to think about that stuff, it'd be horrible. And how expensive it would be. Stressful. There you go. That's the T.

Dead Am's Breed and Clint podcast. We want to talk about adults acting like children this afternoon on the back of this Reddit post that I saw, which has actually been deleted this post. I don't know what it's stirred up within this person's family, but I've managed to grab it just before it got deleted. Okay. It's about someone's grandma who, excuse my French, I believe grandma's being a bit of a B word.

Ooh. That's not like grandma. No, it's not your stereotypical grandma behavior, is it? Grandma's normally sweet, kind, loving. Milk and honey. Yeah. It's about this person who purchased a car off a family member. Okay?

She didn't purchase it off grandma. Have a listen. She said, I recently bought a car from my aunt and uncle, and I paid full price of what the car is worth. I paid $18,000. I had no problem paying that because I know the car was maintained well, and honestly, I wouldn't give a family member a discount on something that big either. The problem is, my grandma has been telling everyone

that my aunt gave me the car for free. What? I don't know why, she says, saying that, but it really pisses me off. I worked hard and paid cash for that car and I do not want people thinking

I get handouts. Fair enough. That is totally fair enough. Why is Grandma going and running her mouth to the rest of the family? Especially if you paid 18 grand so I went to Grandma and I politely asked her not to tell people that.

Instead, Grandma flips it on me and says, oh, so you want everyone thinking your aunt and uncle made you pay full price. What kind of person does that? Family is supposed to take care of family. And then she shut the door in my face like I was the problem. Why does grandma have such a bee in her bonnet? More than that.

Why does grandma hate you? Do you think, so she says, or he says, she, she says, I believe it's a she. Auntie and uncle. Yes. Do you think the grandma, let's, I'm just thinking out, loud. Grandma is the mother of one of them. The grandma is the mother of the auntie.

Yeah. So that's her daughter, let's say. Potentially, yeah. And do you think the auntie has went and talked crap? And that's where the grandma has got it from. Or do you think grandma just has a vendetta out for this particular grandchild? I don't know what's going on here. I don't know what's going on either.

It's a great sign to not do business with your family members. It's a great sign for that. But it's done now. And what you don't need is grandma running her mouth about something that really doesn't concern her. It's got nothing to do with her. This is between you and your auntie and uncle,

and by the sounds of it, they don't have a problem with it. Grandma's just sticky beaking. This is what they call and what every one of us will go through in our lives at some stage. Family drama. Family drama, yeah.

And it rears its ugly head in all different types of ways and sometimes for no reason. You don't expect Grandma to be starting the beef though, you expect grandma to settle the beef or cooking the corn beef. Or cook the beef or at least just listening to the beef and just be going, oh. Oh, come on, everyone. Oh, honey.

Let's all just get along. That's my grandma. Yeah. My grandma would be the peacemaker. Hey, everyone, let's all just calm down. When it comes to adults, grandma is usually the most adult of the adults because she's been around the longest. But in this situation, she's behaving like a child. but you had to step up and be the adult in the situation.

It's very eye-opening the first time that happens to you in your life. Isn't it? And it's very eye-opening the first time the tables ever turn with your parents, where you see that your parents are actually just human beings trying to figure stuff out as they go as well, just like us. Confronting, eh? You know, where you're like, oh. Oh!

My parents are just like me and are human and don't know all the answer. Very eye-opening. That is a good point, right? That's a very good point. You know? The ZDM Podcast Network. All right, let's get classical. Let's get classic.

Bree and I verse Mad Dog producer Ella. Come in, Mad Dog. A dog sounds sick. It does. The dog's getting on. Pop songs in classical style. Brie and I work as a team against Ella and if you've texted the winning team

you could be about to score 50 KFC chicken dollars. Correct. Claudia runs the game. Gidea, and the rules are pretty simple. Just buzz in with your name and I need you to tell me who sings it and what it's called. Okay. This is the answer everyone's been waiting for. We don't need to know the answer to the secret sound.

We want to know who's going to win this game. Who did I hear refer to the secret sound today as the private noise? Oh, that was me. It's Brooke's private noise. The private noise. When I think in private noise, I think of something else. Okay. Oh, Brianna.

Okay, let's jump right into it. First group, all singular mad dog. To get to two points is going to take home the one. Here is your first song. Ella, Ella with a question mark. Quickly. Brew and Clint, free guess. I know who sings it.

I just don't know the name of the song. We can keep going if you don't want to risk giving any info away. I think. Because I feel like if you said the artist, I might be able to get the song. Can we do it as a team? Yeah. Okay.

It's five sauce. Lipsick stain on the her and a heart. Three, two. She looks at a bit back. They got it. Yes. It's standing there and I am like in the barrel of underwear. And I know now that I'm...

Oh, team work makes the dream work. Is that the song you were thinking, Ella? Yeah, that's the one. Yeah. Well done. That's fine. Whatever. That is our advantage that we are a team.

That is our advantage. And it's because you are better than us. Yeah. Yeah, we'll see. It's cold out here, guys. Here's another song. Ella! Ella!

No, you cannot. No, you cannot go home. I've got a big secret sound to do it at 5 o'clock. Plus, I reckon this is a treat. I reckon you're going to enjoy this. Yeah, you said, that you've got a treat for me next. A special treat for Bree. And you asked me this morning in the group chat, you said,

hey, Bree, when was the last time you shaved your legs? And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think this will be a treat for you, and I think it will be a treat for all of the women that listen to the Bree and Clint show. That is a big call. Yeah. Are you sure you want to put that out there? Sadistically, yes. Okay.

Okay. Stick around. We'll do it next. It's ZAM's Bree and Clint Podcast. And we talked recently on this show about a study that said women have a higher pain threshold than men. Do you remember? I think so. We got Ella in and she slapped us in the face.

I do remember being slapped in the face by producer Ella. Yeah. Yeah. I remember that. Well, according to Jeffrey Mogul, who's a professor of pain studies at the McGill University in Quebec, it's actually men that have the higher pain threshold. We've got a higher pain tolerance. Women are more sensitive to pain than men are, according to him.

But I think these things are... He would know. Well, he's a pain professor. Yeah. And he's also a man, so he would know. Yeah, he's a little bias, I guess. I do think these things are fraught, though, because we experience such different types of pain.

Like women have childbirth, and men have that all-lax loss on the weekend. Yeah. And man flu. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Very different, all valid. Yeah, thanks, Brie. You know?

I thought this afternoon, I would give you the opportunity to inflict some of the pain that men don't typically experience on me. I am currently wearing two NAD's waxing strips on my legs. When did you put those on? Just while the ads were playing. Oh my God. Why? And, well, to see what my pain tolerance is like.

If this guy's right, this shouldn't affect me. I haven't even suggested this. You have put yourself forward. Well, for science, the guy said we've got such a high tolerance for pain. Is it on your ankle? Because that spot is quite nasty. Oh, yeah, that's a, oh, that's a meaty spot. Yeah.

So it's on there, and I give you. I'm so excited. Bree Thomas L. permission to remove one weck strip from my leg. Do you have one on this leg and one on the other leg? Yeah. Do you actually? Yeah, I do. Why would you commit to two?

because you're going to know what it's going to feel like after I pull this one off. When I said to Claudia, I'll give Bree the chance to do one and we'll see how it goes. Well, it's on there now. That's what she said after she'd put it on. She said once it's on, it has to come off. That's the only way it can come off. You're lucky that I am trained professionally. Do you know which direction to pull?

Oh, I'll give it a crack. Ella told me you have to pull this way. Yes. You pull not down. You don't pull down with the hands. You pull up. This way. Yes.

This way. This way. Oh, Christ. If the study's correct, you shouldn't hear anything out of me. Should be not a peep out of you. It should be not a peep. So. Okay.

A one, a two. A one, two, three. Whoa. All hair is a lot of hair. Oh, did a good job. Look how sexy smooth. Look at my leg. Look at sexy smooth legs.

How many strips do you think it would take to do my whole legs? Okay. If you want the full experience, it's time to do your bullsack. It's ZM's Breinclint podcast. I want to talk about this very juicy story that's been posted to Reddit, I believe. It's from a woman who has given herself a fake name because she doesn't want to out herself. But she has admitted to having a very, very long affair with her best friend. Oh, juicy.

So here are the details. Yeah. She said that she's been having a secret relationship with her university friend. So they became friends in university. Yeah. She named him Tim. Okay. So they became friends in university.

Yes. Yeah. Before knowing her husband, before. her husband, before having kids, before any of that. There was Tim. There was Tim, right? She said that her and Tim own a business together. Okay.

Which means they have to travel for work from time to time. Yep. And every time they travel, they will have passionate and raunchy love affairs that her husband and her children know nothing about. Geez. Get this. It has been going on. She said for 30 years.

30 years? 30 years. Oh. Okay. Here are some more details. She said that her and Tim when they first met were only ever friends for a number of years. Best friends. Like really, really good friends.

But nothing had happened. But nothing had ever happened for quite a number of years. And she said, you know, about three or four years into our friendship, we started kissing and then had some rendezvous. But still no husband on the scene at this stage? No.

Okay. No. But it was never anything more than that and she describes it as they would never work in an actual relationship. Okay. But she says she can't control herself in that way around him.

They're just 30 year long friends with benefits. Yeah. Okay. Isn't that wild? Uh-huh. She said... Kind of unprecedented that in that 30 years, neither person has developed feelings for one another.

And she puts it down to that they just have a raw physical connection. Yeah, but eventually, usually that one person catches feelings. Or it gets too messy and too complicated because you're right, someone does catch feelings. Or someone finds out. Exactly. She said that her husband... Put the friends with benefits part to the side.

Her husband, she said, has never battered an eyelid because he loves and trust him and just looks at him as his wife's best friend. I almost find that hard to believe that he doesn't know. Yeah. And that maybe deep down some part of him knows. But do you think that's because it's only a physical connection and so when they're around each other?

Oh, there's no, there's no spark. Yeah. Oh, I don't know. Complicated, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, if he doesn't know, if he's in the dark and he's being lied to, then complicated and awful. Awful. Yeah.

But she said she will never give it up. She'll never give up Tim? No. She'll never give up Tim? No. Okay. I wonder, it doesn't go into the detail because I looked for the details around his situation. Yeah.

Because obviously she's married. He's got three sons. Oh, okay. You know, it has been married for a long time. Yeah. But it doesn't give any details about if he's got a partner or if he's married or if he's, you know, involved. Well, that's double betrayal if he is married. But I guess the perfect cover.

But because it makes me think that if he's not, then he has had feelings for her the whole time. And he's just had to make do with what he can get. Yeah. Oh, God, that's messy. Messy. That's deathbed confession stuff. Like, are you going to die and never tell your partner that? To have an affair for 30 years sounds exhausting to me.

Like it sounds so tiring. Yeah, who is this Tim guy? God. How good is he? He must be pretty bloody good. But he's not that good because you don't want to have a relationship with him. Yeah. So he can't be perfect.

I wanted to know this afternoon was the affair going on for a long time? Yeah. And did you find out maybe it was you. that kept an affair going for a long time, years. We're talking years here. Yep. And how did it eventually all come out? Or you're in that office situation

where you found out that your partner had been having an affair for a very long time. Years and years. Years and years and years. And not the band. Play Zatems, Bree and Clint. It could be some kind of record. It could be.

So we're asking you this afternoon, who had the long. affair. The people we called for this did not want to talk to us on the phone which is fair enough but we will read out some texts. How about this my ex-husband had an affair which resulted in a child and then he had another affair

for 12 years after the first one I only discovered them both at the same time I caught him out on the 12 year affair and then he told me about the prior one the first affair was to my best school friend a narcissist

Yes, he is. What an absolute piece of S. Yep. Wow. How do you keep a kid a secret? People do it. People do it. People do it.

Tristan Thompson was doing it. Yeah. Was trying to. If you don't know who that is, it's the NBA player that cheated on Chloe Kardashian. She found out while she was giving birth to his kid, eh? That was the first time. Oh, right.

And then the second time, when, after she had forgiven him, which I mean, once a cheater, always a cheater, she forgave him and they were about to have their second child together and she found out that he got some other sheila pregnant. Are they still together now? No. Right. Not together anymore.

Someone texted her and said, my best friend was cheated on for a year and a half. They were engaged, intending to get married within the next year. and we found out a month after my own wedding where, of course, he was in the bloody photos. We found out because our mutual friend was at a party with the affair partner and saw a Snapchat from him on her phone. Oh, my God. A fair partner thought she was his girlfriend

and didn't know about his fiancé, apparently. So it's keeping them both in the dark. See, now that is a stressful... It's wild to me that, you... you could be engaged to someone and then have a girlfriend and just not worry about anyone finding out. You'd have to have two personalities.

Was he going to go through with the wedding? Like, what was it going to happen there? I found out my auntie had been having an affair with my school principal for one year while she was married with my two cousins. Duffa? With your principal? What the hell?

I hope her kids were at the same. school too, you know? God. Or do I? I don't think so. You want the kids to not be anywhere near it. True. True. Poor kids. They're innocent. Yeah, actually, yeah. You want it to be a coincidence that the

affair partner just happened to be your principal. Someone else said, 15 women and three men had an Excel spreadsheet when we split. It spanned over 10 years of the 20 year marriage.

Jesus, I had my suspicions, but nothing like that. Grind a galore. That's disgusting. That's wild. An Excel spreadsheet. An Excel spreadsheet. An Excel spreadsheet. Are you a psycho?

Like you're catching Pokemon. What the hell? Yeah. Yeah. That just, if you were the partner who found that out, they were just up in your whole world. Can you imagine? Because every memory and every occasion beforehand, you'd be like, wait, wait, were you on a golf trip?

Or, you know? Yeah. Listen to this. I know my wife is having an affair going on seven years now, patiently waiting for the right time to blow this wide open. Wow. You've known for seven years? Why have you not said anything?

Yeah. I guess they're collecting their evidence and they want it to be irrefutable. But you know. Yep. You know. Here's one like the story from Reddit. I've been in multiple relationships over numerous years

but for 18 years me and this one man have been sleeping together the whole time Yeah right Maybe you should just be with him He's right there He's been right there the whole time Yeah greedy guts out there

Yep Thanks for your texts Especially the cryptic ones And the secret ones We won't share anything No we won't No we appreciate you sharing with us ZDM's Brie and Clint podcast

They win two grand. That's how name in a haystack works. So let's start with the name. Who's picking the name?

Producer Ella, what name? Easy one. First thing that came to my mind was Callum. Callum. Callum. That's my brother's name. Oh. So obviously.

And I know where he works, but I will not. I will not be offering it up. God, imagine. What are the odds? We will accept, obviously, Cal. Cal, yeah, yeah. Cal. No.

It's about it. Yeah. Cal or Callums? Okay. Can't say I know many callums. But if he says Cal, we have to check that it's not short for Kellyn. Yes, true. Imagine if we get Cal, but it's Kellan and not Callum.

There is a lot of Kellans going around. You never heard that name. One of my best friend's names, Callan. Really? Yes. You have friends? S-A-L-A-N. C-A-N. C-A-L.

I'm going to the full-time sports bar, the Waz Bar. Oh, yeah, okay. That feels like someone that would work at a bar. I feel like, yeah, someone named Callum could work there.

Tomorrow we will know who the champion is and who has won the bust of Taskmaster Jeremy Welles' head. We're very honored to have on the show for the first time the Taskmaster's assistant. It's Paul Williams. Hi, Paul. Have you missed me, Paul? I have, yeah.

I've missed you every day. I knew it. Have you missed me the most out of everyone? Equal. First sequel, for sure. equal with who? With who? With Pax, Jackie, and Alice. Not Jack Anset. Poor Jack Anset. It's a four-way tie. It's a four-way. I'll take it. I will take it.

Paul, hell of a season of Taskmaster that we've just enjoyed. Would you say it's the best season so far? Ah, it's up there. It's up there for sure. I mean, because this is Bree's radio show, I'm going to say 100 of a thing yes. Good answer. Good. Have you seen what they've said on Reddit, what the Reddit community is saying, where it sits in terms of the Taskmaster New Zealand seasons, Paul? I haven't, no. They're saying it is second only taken by season two, which is a big crowd favourite, so I'll take that. Wow, yeah, that's the silver medal.

It is silver. Paul, the finale is on tonight on TVNZ2. Are you excited to find out who wins? I'm very excited. Basically, I was there, but I get them to hit me really hard on the head so I forget. Yeah, yeah. Immediately. And then, and so I'm going to find out tonight like everyone else.

That's crazy. That's crazy. That's what I asked them to do after that celebrity soccer match that we played on the weekend. I said, hit me really hard on the head so I don't remember how badly I played. Paul was in that game with us as well. Paul won player of the match for your team. It was not, it was not deserved. I don't know what happened.

I think stop the count, it was rigged. He's good and humble, look at him go. Hey, Paul, you know when you do these seasons and you see who you've managed to ring in for embarrassment on the show, do you ever make bets behind the scenes about who you think is going to look the stupidest? Not the stupidest, but I do usually make a little spreadsheet of who I think will win, like the final order.

and I basically never get it right. Really? Who did you say this season out of interest? I can't say because then I might give away. So I can't say. We don't know that. This might be the first year that you've got it right. That's true.

That's true. Yeah. But it wasn't. No. I was there after the end. I actually think my pick might have come last. I'll have to go and check the dock. Oh, wow.

God. I can't believe you backed in Pax Society. Well, we can't say that. You know, there could be comebacks. Hey, we never know. Anything could happen at this stage. We're excited to see how it goes. We've bloody enjoyed this season of Taskmaster.

Thanks for all the laughs. And thanks for talking to us this afternoon. Paul Williams. Thanks for having me, guys. Also, thanks for my first kiss. Appreciate you. Bye. Bye.

And your second kiss. And my second and third. And your third kiss as well. Thanks for all my kisses, Paul. Love you. Thanks. Bye. Say you back.

Love you. You said it. Love the letter you. God, everything has a bloody protein label on it these days, doesn't it? It does, yeah. Protein yogurt, protein milk, protein oats. Protein, yes, protein Oreos, you said. Protein musily in the supermarket shelves I've seen recently.

But yeah, protein Oreos was the one for me where I went. Are we just trying to make ourselves feel better about eating Oreos? Not that there's anything wrong with eating Oreos. I love Oreos. But have Oreos or a protein shake. Isn't it a bit gimmicky? It could be. I've seen certain fitness influences posting recently

that some of the protein-labeled foods in the supermarket are just the regular food. And it doesn't mean it doesn't have protein in it. It's got protein in it, but no more than it always had. Exactly. They're just putting protein on the front. It's like relabelling chicken to protein chicken. Yeah.

You know? Yeah, the protein was always in the chicken. Yeah, yeah. I thought I would test you guys, producers included, on what are the most protein rich foods you can eat? And we're going to do this per 100 grams. Okay, sure. Okay?

So I'll give you each a guess. You can each say one thing and I'll tell you if it's on the list of the top 10. Most protein rich food. Most protein dense foods. Yes, per 100 grams, we're talking. Let the vegan go first because she's been champing at the book for us. She should know.

She should know this because you need to know your proteins when you're vegan. I have two, but I'll go for my top one, my top one. Because we're going to go back around. Yeah, yeah, my top one, tofu. Not on the list. Nowhere on the list. I hate to break it to you. I'll go next.

Chicken. Chicken is not on the list. What I eat so much chicken? Not in the top 10 of most protein dense foods. Claudia. Is it too broad to say cheese? Would you like me to pick a cheese? Yeah, you have to pick a cheese.

vegan diet. Nothing but pumpkin seed. Beef is second on the list. Suck it. I want to see you eat an entire meal of pumpkin seeds. I hate pumpkin. Yeah, exactly. Oh, gosh.
