You're going home for Christmas to Australia. Yeah, go home on Sunday, can't wait. You'll have nieces and nephews to buy for. Sure do. For Christmas. Sure do. This will help you. There's a post on the Herald today from a pediatrician,

which is a doctor for young people, by the way. I always get them confused with a podiatrist, which is a doctor for feet. Yeah. Yeah. Two different things. Pediatrician is the doctor for... Kid doctor. Isn't there another one that's got something to do with diet, another kind of pee doctor?

Per, per, per... With diet. Is it? Oh, God, I don't know. Anyway. A nutritionist? A per... Per...

Polygamist. A polyamorous. Oh, polyamorous. That's what I was looking for. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They look after multiple people at once, I think. That's what it was. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And not children. Not kids. Not children. No, just adults.

Anyway, this pediatrician has talked about the do's and don'ts when it comes to buying gifts for kids this Christmas, which, like I said, is particularly helpful if you don't have kids of your own and you might not know what's appropriate. I feel like you just use common sense, don't you? You do. That's 80% of this article. Use common sense. And if all else fails, buy them a book. Yep. Yep. you want to be boring. Yep, get them a book. Oh, what? Harry McClare is a great present. The article's quite long, but it's things like, do some research. Yeah, it is.

Too long? But that's mostly common sense, so we'll just breeze through it. Do some research about whether the gift is safe, particularly for the age of the child. Like, don't get them a motorbike if they're two, you know? Yep. Do get them a motorbike if they're four. Sick. Be mindful of how much you spend, which is quite good advice if you're flashy. Yeah. You don't want to be the person who comes in with a present that costs a couple of hundred bucks. If the kids' parents didn't have that kind of budget. That's good to think about. And then you risk making them feel shit about it.

What about not spending as much as the parents? Yeah. That's safe, hey. Yeah. Yeah. You don't want to outshine the parents. No. You don't want to outshine Santa.

Those are the two people not to. Outshine. Unless, unless the parents are like, hey, we've only got you this shitter present. because Auntie Bree's coming, old Auntie Moneybags, and she's packing heat, okay? So just don't be upset that we got you this. The real gift's coming. The real gift is on the way with Auntie Brie.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's been through Judy Free and she's coming in hot. Anyway, I thought we could talk this afternoon about inappropriate gifts that someone has bought for your kid or that you bought for a kid that you didn't realize was inappropriate or you did know was inappropriate and you bought it anyway or even inappropriate gifts that you received as a kid. a child and looking back you're like wow really my stepdad got me a samurai sword yeah not

appropriate like a hatchet wouldn't be appropriate for a kid hey incredibly inappropriate yeah no that's pretty dangerous what age can you get a hatchet um i reckon like 35 would be safeish yeah yeah yeah yeah but still quite dangerous it depends how much you value your children's fingers yeah yeah yeah and toes and shins it's not inappropriate but i know someone who's child received a full drum kit when they were two years old, which is great, which is great for the kid, but tough on the parents and neighbours. Because the kid's at two. No.

What are they going to do with that at two? And also they hadn't shown an interest or a talent for the drums. They're just like, you should learn these. Yeah. You should be shit on these for the next five years. Go join a band and make us money. Yeah. I remember something I got as a kid.

Look, there is someone in my family. If you listen to this show before, I have a very wealthy relative. That's right. Let's put it that way. Your Ferrari uncle. Very, very wealthy. And there's, I don't remember this because I reckon I probably was like seven or eight. And there's video footage of me and my sister opening our gifts from our wealthy relative.

And we received a McDonald's toy, which is fine. yeah kind of and we also received because he did a lot of the work building a lot of the stadiums for the Sydney 2000 Olympics and we received a Sydney 2000 calendar and life planner

that he got for free that he got for free yeah see I was like what am I as a seven or eight year I'm going to do with a planner I was like I've got nothing to plan I've got undiagnosed ADHD I can't plan anything

We're talking about inappropriate Christmas presents for children Whether you gave them or received them And it's good warning for aunties and uncles listening this Christmas You know? These are the gifts not to give Or do, just know that the gift will be a phone topic on a radio station one day Exactly I feel like this is a very good example

But it's the parents that have stuffed up here They said when I was 10 My parents gave me a baseball glove Not inappropriate Except we were in New Zealand And I loved cricket And it was just the glove No baseball, no bat

Just the glove What was I even meant to do with that? It's like your parents don't know you at all Why would you just get someone And if you get one glove Everyone knows there's nothing you can do with one glove You need two gloves And a ball

Minimum That's the minimum Minimum Yeah Oh this sucks So weird That's equal to them of your parents giving you a box of favourites. They're like, oh, I guess I'll like this.

You're a kid, you like baseball, don't you? Cricket, mum. Cricket. I like cricket. Same thing, piss off. My brother got me a toaster maker, a toaster maker for my 16th birthday. I still lived with my parents. He must have won it in a raffle or something.

Oh, a toasty maker. A toasty maker. Oh, a toasty maker. Yeah, random. For your 16th birthday, you gave you a toastie, mate. That is weird. What about this one? My Nana accidentally bought me a bong water pipe,

thinking it was a vase, and she even put flowers in it. I didn't have the hard to tell her, so to this day, it gets cleaned every Christmas, and I put flowers in it. Oh, that's sweet of you. Do you think maybe Nana was trying to check if you were cool or not? She was like, I'll put flowers in this, and I'll see if she knows what it really is.

And if she does, me and you, me and her can use it together. And if she doesn't, I'll keep pretending that I think it's a vase as well. And we'll see who cracks first. Yeah, it's a Mexican bong standoff with you and Nan. Nan put flowers in, you can put buds in. It's not inappropriate, but a few years ago I got some gifts from my dad and brother at Mountain Warehouse. And I got a voucher for spending money there. I wrapped it up and gave it to mum and dad for Christmas.

They found it hilarious and put it on the fridge. It's still up there. What? I don't, I didn't pre-read that. Really? Claudia, can you pre-read these and tell us whether we should be reading them out? What about this one? It wasn't a Christmas gift, but it was my birthday gift.

My uncle had purchased me a return ticket to Sydney to fly on the very first triple seven aircraft for Air New Zealand. It was a great gift because my entire family is an aviation. family, but waking up as a 10-year-old and getting told you're going to Sydney just because the type of plane it was is extremely cool but very excessive. Are there people

that love planes that much? Yeah, there is. To go, yeah, they'll be a big deal for planes people. But not for a 10-year-old. You've got to be like, hey, we're going on the first triple seven. And also we're going to go to Lunar Park or something. That makes sense. Like, imagine going to school and people are like, what did you get for your birthday? You're like, I've got

a flight to Sydney. Yeah. I got a commemorative ticket. My friend got me a candle that said, if you forget me, I'll burn your effing house down. No, that's cool. That's cool. That's a good present.

Is that what the candle said? Yeah. Oh, if you forget about the candle, it will burn your effing house down. That's quite clever. That is quite clever. I believe that's a double entendre. Claudia, is that a double entendre?

Yeah, that's a double entendre. Yeah, how good is that word? We're wasting time. We need to have a break. Oh, we are wasting time. We need to get to. the bloody ads. We're going to

debut the Brie and Clint drum and bass Christmas song, the world's first drum and bass Christmas song. You've heard the teaser. Prickles in the grass

gas bottles empty again. If you get has been in the pants come on, come on everyone, shake your tinkle tits. Next, be the first in the world to hear

the full song Shake your tinsal tits. Z.N's Brian Clint. It's Christmas time which means it's Christmas music time. Exactly.

And look, there's a lot of great Christmas songs out there, but I feel like we hear quite a lot of them over and over again. Absolutely. You know? There are the Mariahs, the Boublays. These days the Arianas and a little bit of the Justin Bieber's. Correct. And then there's the classics.

The Elvis's and the bings and the like. Jinglebell rock. Yeah. Mamadai, what would you say is your favorite genre of Christmas song? Well, I think it's only two words, Elvis Presley. Come on. That's my mum's. There's no other genre at Christmas except for Elvis.

Until now. Until now, mother. Hey mum, can we just, before we play you the full original Brian Clint drum and bass Christmas song? Because the only songs we're allowed to play at Christmas time are Elvis Presley songs. Can we go on record and say that afterwards, if you listen to our song, Will it be played at the Thomas L. Family Christmas this year if you like it? As I said previously, it depends on the song and how many drinks we have to have before we put it on. Is there a world in which you don't play your daughter's Christmas song, original Christmas song at Christmas?

That'd be pretty brutal. Oh, well. Can you give your honest opinion? That's what we're after. And that's what we've been asking people who listen to this show to text through to 9-6-9-6. Once you hear it, we want your honest feedback. That's what this show has been built on. Can you be honest with us, Mama Di?

I'll be honest, that's for sure. You know, Mum, she is quite honest. Yeah, but it's different when it's your kids. Like, you would have had a lot of brief crappy artwork on the fridge over the years. You know? That's hard. Ain't that the truth. So.

Well, just don't ask me to compare it to Elvis. Then you've got it. We have a lot of my first question is going to be. Great. Oh, no. Are you ready for this, Mama Di? No, but I'll let's go for us. Would you introduce it for us?

Yeah, and just a reminder to everyone, we crowdsourced all of the different themes and lyrics. We wanted to know what we should put in the song, and then we've taken that and turned it into a drum and bass banger. Mama Di, can you introduce the song? All you have to say is this is the Brian Clint Christmas song. Shake your tinsel tits. Oh.

When you're ready? Oh, this is the brilliant and Clint's Christmas song. Shake your insult-its. Perfect. Love it. Oh, that's shocking. Here it comes. Merry Christmas.

Woo! Pick it up. Bring it up. Bring it up. Brick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. Brick's on a gift set for your brother every single year. Mom don't go to work time supervising with a beer. Back our cricket drama, because someone got more hits.

Auntie's broccoli salad, she brings it every year. Family food, coma, snoring loudly in your ear. Prickles in the grass, get bottles empty again. If your year has been in the pits, come on, come on, everyone, shake your tinsletes. Shake your tins, shake your tins, shake your tins, shake them, shake your tizzletes, shake them, shake your tizzled tins, shake him, shake your tizzled tins, shake him, shake him, shake him, shake your tizzled tins, shake him, shake him, shake your tizzle tins. Ladovers for weeks, Ambrosia for brinkie. the cricket and he's out cold already. An hour in the car park just trying

to get home. Dad's picking up, rapping like a man in the zone. Auntie singing, red, replying when the kids go to bed and half of invocables at the Y Kiwi pub for jelly wrestling instead? Waterfly, bridge jumps, prickles in the lawn. Always my family member that's absolutely gone. Dream might be crispy, lunch might be

chaos, but that's your Kiwi Christmas. Come on and sing with us. Shake up tentils hands. Shake your pencil tent. Shake your people, 10, shake your teeth on 10, shake it, shake it, shake him, shake your people, kids. Here's to the madness, the mess and the cheer, bring Clint, Merry Christmas, now let's have a beer. Hey, cheers, mate. Hey, cheers to us. Oh, that's good, yeah.

It's good, yeah. So, what do you think? What do you think, Mama Di? Yeah, yeah. She's speechless. I say you what, Brianna, you couldn't have got much more of that. course in there, could you? Jesus, that's kind of ramming it down your throat a bit.

Some could say it's like motorboating it. Yeah, yeah, really shoving her in your face. My first question for you, Di, how does that compare to an Elvis Christmas song? Oh, mate. There's absolutely nothing I can say about that. That's off the chart. Are you a drum and bass fan now, Mum? Have we converted you?

well actually it's not bad you know the really unfortunate part about it what's that it's all true it's all true yeah yeah yeah yeah they're all real references it's all references we've got from the listeners of this show yeah yeah it's a group effort you know it wouldn't surprise me if there's a movie made from it all right well well how many drinks before that gets played at thomasel family Christmas I think I'd have to have two, at least two, two bottles. Yeah, right. We don't recommend that, drink responsibly.

Mom, guess what the music video is going to be? I hope it's Rudolph shaking its tinsul, you know what. Well, actually we're wondering if you were free. Well, Clint's middle name is Rudolph. You need someone who is, you know, reasonably in doubt to be shaking them, I think. I know a few people. Well, Breezy, so. Thanks, Mum.

Thank you on his feedback, Mum, we appreciate it. Merry Christmas. Oh, love you guys. Love you, ma'am. Merry Christmas. Just a couple of texts coming in. Someone said, what an effing banger, my tinsel tits are effing swinging. That's for sure.

And that's all we need. And that is... That's all we need. The text that I needed to read today. Thank you very much for that. Z&M's Bree and Clint podcast. Time for the T. The T, live from L.A. with Dean, arguably one of the biggest bands of the 2000s and 2010s.

The Black-Eyed Peas have reunited for the first time in eight years. They have. Would you believe they all got together to celebrate three of them turning 50 this year? What? Makes me feel like... Wild. I know. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Three of the Black. P's a 50? Apple D. Apps 51. What? Yeah. How old's Fuggy? She's only 35, isn't she?

Yeah, she's 35. Yeah, sweet. Okay, sweet. Sorry, Dean, I got a bit carried away there. Well, all them turned 50 this year. They all stood together in a very cool, casual photo at celebrating their kind of like a combined birthday get together. One of them wrote what a really special night with all my brothers stood with so much love is what she said on social media. Does this mean they're getting back together?

Well, you do remember, of course, in 2018 when Fergie left to focus on being a mum, fair call, absolutely fair call, justified. Does it mean they'll be back together? I don't know. Remember, they did replace her with that. She was on the voice, I think her name was Jessica. Yeah, no, they'd get rid of her in an instant if Fergie came back. They'd get rid of her in an instant. Yeah, let's be real.

Let's be real. They're choosing Fergie. No offense to random girl from the voice. I feel like she would understand. Guys, stop the press. You all lied to me. Furgy is also 50. Yeah, all three of them.

Fergie is 50. Oh, so three of them are turning 50 this year, and Apple D. App is the only one that turned 50 last year. God. I hope that they're getting back together. Who, hands up here, who would go see Black IPs with Fergie as the front again? Yeah, me. 100%.

You would, eh? Front row center. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We saw them, remember, at Friday Jams, about five years ago without Fergie, still awesome. Still great. But if they did the real thing, People would fuzz, wouldn't they?

They would sell it out. Pop. That's the T. On the Black IPs with Dean McCarthy. The ZD.M. Podcast Network. Oh my God, that's Olivia, Dean. Sorry, I was locked out of the studio. Were you?

This stupid system that we've got here at work. We used to have swipe cards to get around the building. Yeah. And then for no reason at all, they took the swipe cards away, and we all have to have an app on our phone. The amount of times it doesn't work, I've been standing outside that door, trying to scan myself back in for like three minutes.

Yeah, remember when mine just stopped working for no reason? Either that, or I've been let go by the company and they haven't told me. It's one or the other. One or the other. Imagine, imagine. This is a message for all businesses everywhere. Stop making everything an app. Stop making everything an app.

We don't want it. We think it's convenient. It's the opposite of convenient. Also, like, I get the security thing with the email and stuff. if I have to download one more thing to get a password with a different code to get into my bloody work email. If I need one more password.

Anyway. Let's talk about something fun. I made it. Yeah, just. Because I was like, I'm going to have to get on the desk. Here we go. Last three shows of the year. Okay, look, I might be a bit worked up.

I might have had too many Celsius today. But I stand by what I said. Hell yeah. Let's talk about something fun. Christchurch is new. stadium. Yes. We're so excited.

You and I have been pumped for this for ages. Remember when we're in Christchurch and we were like, let's go have a look at the new stadium? I pitched an idea because everyone's trying to come up with new ideas all the time. I suggested that we should do the first nudie run at the stadium. And I said, that's a horrible idea. Not during a game. I'm not proposing a pitch invasion. I'm suggesting that we get access to the stadium early and we go in there.

Why do you keep trying to get you? We just do a nerdy run. I don't want to get my kid off in front of you again. Anyway, that idea got vetoed. Yeah, not key. And I don't, can I say I veto many things? Do I? You're a prude.

It's fine. Agree with me. Tell the people the truth. No, you don't. I don't. You just don't want to get your beaver out. And you know what, fair enough. Fair enough.

It'd be cold. Fair enough. It'd be cold. I've got laser hair removal. There's not, there's not. You don't have the bits that are susceptible to coldness. If anything, coldness is a benefit for you. How would you know?

For me, it's the issue. How would you know? My boobies shrivel up like little prunes. Anyway, it's an indoor stadium. If you're going to do an indoor, if you're going to do a nerdy run anywhere, you want to do it at an indoor air-conditioned stadium. Yeah, that's true, I guess. Anyway, I'm not pressuring anybody to do a nudie run.

I just don't want to do a nudie run full stop. Yeah. Ever. In my life. There's two things I've told you that are a no good. go for me. What are they? Don't cut my hair. Don't make me get my beave out. They're the two things. My two no-nose. And that's fine. You know, I feel like those are perfectly reasonable no-nose. Good. Thank you. Let's talk about the grass in the stadium. Looks lush. I saw the pitches this week.

Yeah. You're telling me, because they laid it this week, there's so much that has gone into this grass. Did you know that it was actually grown off site in this special, like, place where there's these special people that tend to it and they've looked after it and then they've obviously transported it, put it on the field. But there's one guy, his name is Richard Gibbs, and he is a turf, he's called a turf doctor. Turf doctor, okay, yeah. He's a turf specialist, but they're calling him the, yeah, the turf. Perf doctor for the stadium. This is what he does. He looks after the grass in arenas.

Yeah. And this is what he's made a career out of. Isn't that amazing? It'd be a different, different, like, type of job compared to, like, Eden Park, for example, which gets natural sunlight and rain and things like that. Very different job. This guy's trying to grow grass inside. Yeah.

Yeah. Very different job. This guy has travelled around the world doing this. Yeah, they do. I met the guy, the turf manager for Eden Park. Oh, turf manager. Turf manager. And it's a very serious job. Yeah.

Very serious job. And they do. They have like sister stadia around the world that they go and visit and they discuss grass. They take grass and soil samples with them. Yeah, it's quite an interesting field, you would say. Because this particular one in Christchurch, it's a combination of artificial material and then real grass. And they do all these kind of studies and tests on what's going to work the best in that climate and all this kind of jazz. Amazing.

I've had quite a few grass chats in the last couple of years, actually. I talked to the people who have done the new turf for Ellasley Racetrack. Oh, what they say. Which is so much grass. And that's a whole different kettle of fish. And that's part artificial part real as well. There you go. Because over in America.

Easier on the horse knees. Is it? Yeah. Really? S safer for the horses. Even the park next to my house. like we have beautiful park next to our house and there's quite a few sport fields um mostly rugby league and then they play softball in the uh summertime oh yeah but so there's two fields that are just

normal like you've just got your normal turf looks beautiful but obviously they look after it and then this one field that has artificial underneath and real grass on top wow at a park yeah so this is like something that they're doing more and more so his job is what two A turf doctor. A turf doctor. Okay. Great. Turf doctor.

That's not meant to grow up to be. I'd love to be a turf doctor. Fascinating. I have never heard of that job title before, have you? Nope. No. I thought we could ask, do you have a weird or interesting job title? That we probably wouldn't know.

Do you have a job that other people don't know that exists? Yeah, when you say it, when you say, oh, this is my job title, people go, what? Yeah. What does Dave do for a job? Oh, he's actually a turf doctor. Huh? Huh? Huh?

A what? You're a what? Huh? A turf doctor. It's ZAM's Brie and Clint podcast. We're just talking about the new Christchurch Stadium. It's all coming together now. They laid the turf.

One New Zealand Stadium. Yeah. That's what it's called. Oh, is that what it's called? Mm-hmm. Very exciting stuff. It's indoors. Yeah, it's got a roof.

I never realized it had a roof. Are you serious? Yeah. It's half the charm. Yeah, I know, but I just assumed stadium. Most stadiums don't have a roof. Yeah, right. Not that big anyway.

I reckon every stadium built in New Zealand from now will have a roof. The one in Dunedin has a roof. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And they need it because it's freezing down there in winter. Can you imagine with no roof playing in winter at that stadium? Christchurch.

But Dunedin are pissed off that Christchurch. You've got a roof on their stadium now. Why? Because all the events are going to go to Christchurch. Oh. Yeah. The Christchurch one is bigger than the Dunedon one, though. No.

Are they the same size? They're similar in size. Really? Okay. Interesting. But we're just talking about the turf going in because the guy who has done it has been, I believe, working on this project for many, many years. And he's a turf doctor. Turf doctor.

That's his job title. The grass is so important at an indoor stadium. It's everything. Yeah. The grass is important at every stadium, but indoor in particular. The drainage of it. How much artificial versus how much real. I mean, who knows?

We could go on about grass for ages, but we want to know, like the turf doctor, do you have a, an unusual, weird, strange job and job title. And some people are coming through with their weird ones, like this one. Someone said, I am an environmental hygienist. They're a cleaner. Oh, I like that name. Environmental hygienist. Fancy name.

Someone else said, I'm a wellness educator, only person doing it in New Zealand. A wellness educator. Wellness educator. Not a nurse. All I pictured, all I pictured. All I pictured was the person in the Healthy Harold van. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, in the life education van.

Yeah. Not my job, but my degree. I have a bachelor in kine, kineasology. Kinesiology. Kinesiology. No one in New Zealand knows what it means. I work at a gymnastics school. Kinesiology is something to do with you, obviously, like physio slash.

I can't get something to do with gymnastics. No, but it's like, yeah, but it's like physio, I think. In Ireland, they have what's called a turf accountant. It's a bookie who works at a racetrack. Someone said, I'm a calf rearer. Ew. Not that. Someone else said I had a mate's dad refer to himself as a livestock relocation specialist.

He was a stock truck driver. Yeah, well, it's exactly what you do, isn't it? It's exactly what he does. I'm a chaos coordinator, aka an events coordinator. Is that what they call them in the industry? A chaos coordinator, yeah. Yeah, God, they have to live in just constant chaos, don't they? Someone texted and said, I'm an end-of-life doula.

I can't chat on the phone, but I'm sure you can guess what I do. I couldn't quite, and so I googled it. An end-of-life doula provides non-medical, holistic support for people who are at the end of their life and their families. What an amazing job. What an interesting job. Oh, my God. Very difficult job. Someone else said, I'm a digital capability.

consultant. I don't think there's many of us. I've never heard of that. What is that? A digital capability consultant. A transponder. A transponder? He's a transponster.

We've got to text with someone who's a phlebotomist. That's the blood thing, eh? Yeah, people who draw blood from patients. I didn't know that had its own name. Isn't that the coolest name? I just assumed they were nurses who were doing the blood stuff. Someone else said I had a friend that was a bovine, assembly technician.

They're a butcher. He worked at an abattoir. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's pretty good. I used to tell people that I was an advanced display technician. I stocked the shelves at Pack and Save. I love that. Why not?

Someone said, because we were talking about the turf before the turf doctor, someone said, I used to work at a trade show in the UK that was 100% all about turf. It was called Sultex. And it was like field days. up for turf. It's all about grass. It goes to show... Grass is big business, man.

Yeah, it's huge business. Especially for middle-aged men whose lawn is their entire personality. They say you get divided into one of four houses when you reach a certain age as a man. And it's lawn, barbecue. That's the same. Is it? Yeah, it's same category. Lawn and barbecue is the same.

You need to be good at both. Whiskey? Yeah. Or what's the fourth one? What else do men like? Cars? Yeah, cars, yeah. Beer?

Or Sydney Sweeney. Yeah. Oh, this one's good. Someone texted her and said, I'm a domestic engineer, a housewife and mother. Yeah, domestic engineer. You're so much more than that. A ZM's Breinclin podcast.

ZD.M.Sbrie and Clint Podcast. Please welcome to the show, our friend Tom Sainsbury. Hi, you two and my listeners. Come on in, it's Tom Sainsbury. He's currently doing his best Tom Sainsbury impersonation. It's not the best. Is that the hardest one to do? You know what, Bree, it is.

No, you made it weird. I've made it weird. You have a brand new season of your podcast Small Town Scandal that's out now. Season three of Small Town Scandal. Season three, so season one and two was out in 2023, and there's been a little bit of a hiatus, but I've come back. And so, as Bree knows, and she got me to showcase it, I had an Australian accent from my lead for the first two.

Toby. Yes, Toby. We love Toby. there for one year to over Australia and he picked up the accent. But now we've got a whole new lead. So it's a whole new characters it's a whole new story and this guy, so Hugh Windenblatt.

That's right. So he's usually a golfing podcast but now he's got into a little bit of true crime. He's a Kiwibe, he's a bit plummy, isn't he? He is. So his parents were really, really rich and when he was five he got sent over to boarding school in the UK. Of course he did. Of course he did. He's got a golfing podcast

called the Fear Way Files. But his podcast manager has purchased a a true crime podcast as well, which just so happens to be small-town schedule. It's a seamless. It's a seamless low-over. It's absolutely seamless. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. How many new characters, because I haven't recognised

anyone from season one or season two so far in season three, how many new characters have you had to come up with for this podcast? Because if you haven't listened to this before, the bit is that Tom does every single character on the podcast. And my favourite thing to always ask you is how many voices are we getting on this season three?

I've gone a little bit easier. So I think the very first one I went 43. I was like, there is too many voices. I'm going crazy. This one is like 29. 29 new people with 29 backstories and 29 voices. You got it.

It's just, for people listening, if you've never heard this podcast, it is the most unique, creative, just brilliant listen. And we commend you on it every time that you're in here. But how long does it take? Like, I'm always so interested in how long it takes because it sounds like when you're listening to it,

I'm like, this must have taken months. The actual recording of it, so me, I do, I have to break the characters down, and the most I can do is like four in one session. So 29 divided by four people. You're asking the wrong people. You get it. And so there are all those sessions,

but that's quite easy for me to do. And some of the characters are quite small. It's the poor old editor who has to go through and cut out every single line of that doer log. It's like, where is that meme of that guy from How I Met Your Mother where he's got all the string on the wall

and the cigarette trying to stitch everything together? 100%. Not only this. So that season is out now. Season 3 of Small Town Scandal. You can listen to that on I Heart Radio. And season one and two. Yeah, or season one or two.

Any of your podcast apps, it's out there. You've also announced today that there is a Small Town Scandal television show on the way. I've created it multiverse. Yeah, so the TV of the first season has been turned adapted for the screen. We've had to make some changes

So it is, you know You won't get everything At all listening to the podcast But, yeah, so I'm just playing Toby in that one There was a little bit of a discussion of me Playing every character But like, like the nutty professor Like, the nutty professor

Yeah But it would have been like Imagine the crew having to wait around While I got my wig And my prosthetic nose put on Like it was just been just to corner me Yeah yeah If you need, you know

An extra Thespian I know someone Hey Yeah, I know. There was Thespian, by the way. Thespian. Thespian. In season 3, there is a Thespian.

So you can't really play that. Always came. One more question as a fan. If I have listened to season one of the podcast, do I know how season one of the television show ends, or have you changed it a bit? It's changed. That's exciting.

It's exciting. We can't let you off without completing a small challenge. Are you up for that this afternoon? Of course. You are going to play Tom Sainsbury, a round of Brie and Clint. Can I get a hoia? Hello.

A very simple game, Tom Sainsbury, that we get every comedian that comes to visit us here at the Brie and Clint show to do. We're going to call a business, random business, and your goal is to get a hire out of them. But here's the thing. The only thing you're allowed to say is can I get her? Or can I get her?

And we would like it if you did it in a small town scandal character. please. Right, that would be, can I get a... Well, Hugh, we're actually calling the Remuera golf course, so Hugh Wendembleyth could speak. Oh, I think he needs to come out. If he wants to, but it's up to you. You need to get the whole year out of them.

And all I can say is, can I get a... Can I get a multiple times? Please dial one for golf shop, four for functions or event inquiry. We're going to the golf store. Yeah. Premierer Golf Shop, Finney speaking. Can I get a...

Can I get a Can I get a? Can I get a? Can I get a? No, he's gone. There was no reaction. I feel like saying, can I get her sounds real different

in a fancy accent. Yeah, it does. And we made it hard. No, the only person who's successfully got a high year is Brie. There we go. True story. Can I just say that there's, he might have been like, I could have been someone, and he said like, hello.

He didn't say anything. He didn't say anything, yeah, yeah. You could have been having a stroke or something. You could have been saying, can I get an ambulance? Exactly. And he's still hung up on you. And he did some golfing teas. Did not care at all.

Can I get a sports polo? Tom Sainsbury Small Town Scandal, season three is out now. It's on your podcast app. I'm two episodes in and I'm hooked, Tom. It's great. And can we know when's the TV version? Early February. Neon.

That's so soon. 3rd of February on Neon. We can't wait to see it. Thank you, Tom. Dead is, Franklin. I'm watching that doco on Netflix at the moment about Simon Cow. Oh, yeah. It's all about him putting his next band together.

He's trying to do it again, eh? Just trying to do the One Direction thing again. Exactly. But it's not just one direction that he's put together. He's had a very long career putting boy bands together. Do you know some of the other bands he put together? No. Do you Fifth Harmony?

Yeah, yes. Well, that was on X Factor as well. He was a little mix. Right. But the boy bands before those kind of shows, before X Factor and that. He's got some crazy deal, right? Because he started X Factor and owns the rights to American Idol or something. Something.

I can't remember exactly what the deal is. That he gets first right of refusal of the management of all of those artists. That's what I heard. Right. I don't know if that is. true anymore. But he was the manager of five. Was he? He was also the manager of Westlife. Was he? Yeah. Wow. Okay. So he's been in this game a long time. Claudia, you're a big One Direction fan. You didn't even know that. Well, I'm also a big Westlife fan.

Yeah. I had no idea. I was Simon Cowell. But the interesting thing is, is this shows all about him seeing if he can, if he's still got it. If he can do it again. If he can do it again. And they go on the search. to find the next boy band. He must believe that it's boy band time again because boy bands come in and out of fashion. That's the thing. So he talks about that and he says the biggest thing in bands right now is K-pop.

Yes. And he's like, we need to put together a band that is going to be able to go up against all these amazing K-pop bands. Why doesn't he just put a K-pop band together? I don't think that's his jam. I don't think, I don't,

putting a K-pop band together, you can't just do that. Like there's people who've... Right. They come out of the K-pop factory. Oh, yeah. No, but there's people who are experts in it, you know? Yeah. Anyway, it follows him and it does little bits and pieces of his life as well throughout this series.

One of the most interesting, but I think we've got a bit of the trailer, actually. So this is the Simon Cowocco that's on Netflix. It's called Simon Cowell The Next Act. As much as I love my job on TV, I miss where I started, signing artist, and working with bands. There is a massive opportunity. I am going to find a new boy band. And the minute they walk in the room,

you get a feeling about someone. But there is a huge risk here. If this goes wrong, it will be Simon Cowell has lost it. Yeah, well, yeah. Literally. The most interesting part of me watching this series for me was when his partner, his wife,

talks about how he buys his t-shirts. Oh, okay. So he wears the exact same thing pretty much every day. Yes. And she says... Black trousers, white t-shirt. What used to be, he's changed to black t-shirt or like a greyish black t-shirt, black trousers now.

But it used to be, yeah, white t-shirt, black trousers. But his wife reckons it's because he makes so many decisions in his life that he doesn't want to make anymore. That was Steve Jobs' logic as well. Yeah. He goes, I need to, I only, because apparently you can only make so many decisions a day. Really? As a human being.

I feel like my partner's got even less. Like she could only make like three a day or something. Because I end up making all the decisions. Okay. Well, maybe she has to make a lot of decisions in her job. And so she's decision fatigued. Way to make me feel bad because she's saving lives and stuff. She's like, sorry if I don't know what I want for dinner.

Sorry if I just saved a bunch of people today. What did you do? I resuscitated three. babies today. Maybe you could pick dinner. Yeah, you're probably right, babe, I'll pick dinner. But the funniest part is he talks about how many shirts he orders at

a time. Okay. So he orders 50 T-shirts and 50 polo shirts all exactly the same. He orders in bulk every time. He reckons he's got like at least 400 of the same t-shirt in his wardrobe.

That's a bit out there. Especially because he'd have a cleaner. That's outrageous. He could get away with seven. And then in another... In another clip that I saw, he reckons he wears a t-shirt once and throws it away. No. No.

It's Justin Bieber with the Calvin Klein's all over again. There's a line, like t-shirts get a bit shit after a while. But there's also a Goldilocks zone where the t-shirt is so good because it's been washed enough that it doesn't look brand new, but it's not so old that it's got the deodorant crusties under the armpit. You and I are like this, though, on a more like peasant. scale where if you and I find something we like that fits us well. This is the only T-shirt I wear now.

I just have it in five different colours. It's like the pants that I wear. I've got these pants in like seven different colours. These jeans, I just bought three more pairs of them in Australia. It's just Uniclo wide-leg jeans and I now have them in three different colours. This is a Uniclo t-shirt and I've got it in five colours and I've got three of each of the colours. If anyone was interested, my pants are Uniclo Barrel Leg. um in all the colors

are we are we what are we a bit basic i already knew that about us i was going to say on the spectrum but yeah that too yeah yeah yeah brian clintz the day that we dropped our dumben dumb and brace dumb and base dumb and that's a new category and i think we just absolutely met it i think that was fraudian yeah dumb and bass our dumb and bass shock up being the base you can be the dumb dumb and dumber base It's kept in the market

There's no drum and bass Christmas songs What the hell, man What the hell We need that Especially in New Zealand No EDM Christmas songs Why didn't Neveitchie ever put out a Christmas song So wake me up when it is Christmas

Oh I don't mind that Don't mind that at all What's Allo Black doing? Yeah Get him on it I need a present Present Present is what I need

Hey hey Hey right there. Oh, sometimes. I feel like some turkey. Yeah. Yeah. A little bit of to turkey, turkey, turkey, turkey, turkey, turkey.

Okay, I think we should stop. Okay, we should just stop. A ZM's Breenclint podcast. And that is the end of the Breenclint show, a show where we launched our very own Christmas song today, a drum and bass Christmas song. Yep. Lots of people asking where they can get their hands on that Christmas song.

We're working on getting it. on Spotify, but for now, Claudia has put it out as a podcast. So you get just the song as a podcast on the Brian Clint channel. Head to wherever you get your podcast. It should be up there on its own. And we're looking to get a video out
