Starting point is 00:00:00 Show requested, so here it is. As long as you've got da-da-da-d-da. It's ZDem's Breanclin, thanks to the KFC hacker, a $499 snack box, $999 lunchbox, or two zingers for just $14.99. Go, let's go. I think I met you in a dream last one. Zedams, Brie and Clint. And for the first time in like, I don't know, 43 years,
Starting point is 00:00:27 Everybody's here on the Bree and Clint show. Hooray! The gang's all here. Bree's back. Clint's back. Claudia is still here. We've been here the whole time. Ella, she's still here too.
Starting point is 00:00:39 With my beautiful brows. Oh, Ella's eyebrows. It's Bree's first day seeing Ella's eyebrows. I feel like they should go back on our Instagram story today. Oh, no. But let me post a hot photo. I'm known for a very defined brow and I take a lot of pride in my brows. You do.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Big, bushy brown brows. I say big brown energy. The big brown bush is the way to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ella has gone for bleached, skin color bleached eyebrows to the point that they look non-existent. I just don't get it. And I'm not going to say, you know, that they look awful.
Starting point is 00:01:19 But she's not going to say they look good. I probably won't say I love them. That's okay. So I'm like neutral. That's fine. Which is a bit like your eyebrows. Shut up. She has...
Starting point is 00:01:31 No, don't know. He's going. No, go on. But you said you've been colouring them in now. A little bit. Just like a little darker, like, gel. Yes, because her face ID doesn't work anymore. Can I ask, who was the inspo?
Starting point is 00:01:47 I don't know. Just all these divas on TikTok we're doing it. Ariana Grande has been bleaching her eyebrows. But this is the thing. It's like when I tried to get a Dane Rumble hair. haircut. That's Ariana Grande. She can do it. But that was also for a movie role. It's hard to, it's hard to bleach your eyebrows or to spike your hair up like Dane Rumble and then just go and do your office job. You know?
Starting point is 00:02:09 Mm-hmm. I think you pull it off. Thank you, baby. Nice to have you back, you're only saying that because I'm being so awful. I don't care.

Starting point is 00:06:39 It was delicious. You'll be excited to see everybody now that you're back too because you've been away for a bit, including our friend Claire, who works here at ZM. Yeah. She, lovely Claire, who we love. I saw her out in the kitchen on her crutches. Oh, Claire.
Starting point is 00:06:52 She broke her leg on her big Vietnam trip. Yeah, she fell off a bicycle. So she's on crutches for the rest of the year And she's also got this wheelchair Which I'm so stoked she bought in Because I wanted to do wheelchair races on it We should They've given her one of the wheelchairs
Starting point is 00:07:06 That you can't wheel yourself It doesn't have the large I asked her about that Large wheels that you can wheel So because they need to put this extra piece on there So that her leg can be elevated Yeah The other wheelchair doesn't work
Starting point is 00:07:19 Because the tyre would hit it Right So she has to have that one Well we can race in her wheelchair We'll just need to push each other Okay Okay. Anyway, she's out there hobbling around the kitchen,
Starting point is 00:07:28 trying desperately and somewhat pathetically to make her own lunch. And God, you can't help her feel sorry for someone in that situation. Yeah. And Ross Boss comes out and he goes, oh, there's the nan that's had a fall. That's how he described her, the nan that's had a fall. Ross. Ross. Think it.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Don't say it. You leave her alone. Okay. And she said. She's our nan that's had a fall. Yeah. She said, hey, I'm not the. nan of Z-M, that's Brie.
Starting point is 00:08:00 No, I take it back. She's on my list, I'm going to break her other league. She said, I'm going to break the other one. You hear me, Claire? I know you can hear me out there. As the oldest woman of ZDM, Bree is the nan of our radio station. So I've done the research for you.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Because I was like, wait a second, surely not, surely not the youthful, effervescent beauty that is Brie Thomas. Stop trying to sugarcoat this. Can't be possible. So I've done the rounds of the matriarchs of our station. Claire. Definitely one of them.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Yep. May 1st, 1990. Okay. Yep, I'm older than her. And then I thought about Haley. We're the same year. You are the same year. Haley, 8th of October, 1989.
Starting point is 00:08:52 No, I'm before that in the same year. And Bree Tomicel January 3rd I mean there's a couple of months in it Big deal Big deal Big deal Haley and I are the same year
Starting point is 00:09:02 Yeah most people have two nans Why can't we have two nans of ZM I only bring this up And rich of me The only way I can bring this up Is because I feel like a Bonafide Spring Chicken Around the likes of Fletch
Starting point is 00:09:16 Vaughn and Rospos You know? Yeah we need to get some older birds up in here Don't we? Yeah Yeah Why aren't we hiring the older ladies? Where do we get some older ladies from?
Starting point is 00:09:27 Do you think they're not good enough for ZM, Ross? Do you think that the older ladies don't have a place here at ZM? I thought, because you are the nan of ZDM. Can you stop calling me that? Because I think I have quite a useful energy. No, you absolutely do. I'm very immature, which makes me seem younger. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Yeah, yeah. So I wouldn't say I'm the nan. No. but your driver's license would. Yes, that's the only thing. Yeah, and it doesn't mean you behave like a nan. And my hip that gets sore when it's damp. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Yeah, and that wonky knee of yours. Yeah, they crack when I bend down. And that one sandal that has to be thicker than the other sandals so that you don't, so you don't hobble along. That's, they're not, that's not a medical sandal. It's called an espadryl. Why do you only wear one? We want to know, are you the nan of your workplace?
Starting point is 00:10:21 Are you the eldest, oldest person in your job by how much? And what do you do? Like, what industry are you in? And is it hard to relate to the youth within the workplace? I'm down with the youths. Yeah. Yep. Like Ella's in the brooks.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Like Ella's bleached eyebrows. Yeah. I love it. You're hopping on next week, aren't you? I'm doing it next week. She's going to do it. Yeah. I'm going to shave a side part.
Starting point is 00:10:50 I'm going to shave side of my head. Are you? Yeah, I'm buying a pair of jorts too. Skin jorts. Say six, seven in the office a lot. Six, seven. Oh, I hate myself. Oh, 800 dial Zidim.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Are you the nan or the granddad of the place that you work? And was it always like that? And are you still? You found yourself at some stage. You're like, oh my God, I am the oldest goddamn person here. And are you still super young like me? Yeah. Can I also just say, I'm not the oldest at ZM, though?
Starting point is 00:11:19 Absolutely not. Yeah. It'll always be Fletch. on your fletch Zatins Franklin shocking revelation on the show today
Starting point is 00:11:28 I don't think we need to reiterate I think we just move on are you the oldest in your workplace let's take calls respect your elders and if that's what you want to do
Starting point is 00:11:39 Nan that's what we will do You are my elder yeah but you're the nan of ZM is what we found out today I'm wiser yeah you are and you're more authoritative
Starting point is 00:11:48 because you're I definitely who do you is more authoritative out of you and I. You. Are you in the same room? You. Are you in the same room as me? Okay. Okay, sorry, it's me.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Shut up. We want to know, are you the nan of your workplace or the granddad? And Neil's called through. Gidey Neil. Hi, Neil. Hey, mate. Are you the granddad of your workplace? Oh, very much so.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Okay, how old are you, first of all? because it's shocking to find out that Brie is the nan of Z-M at just 35. Oh, yeah, but I can give her half of my age and she'll still be younger than me. See, I like this, Neil. Tell me more. Yeah, so I'm 70. Okay. And it's time to retire. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:38 But I'm having too much fun. Oh, I love that, Neil. Then don't retire, Neil. I'm not going to retire just yet. What do you do for work? Where do you work? I'm a project manager for IT. for IT, okay. And what would you say as the average age of your co-workers? Oh, 2030. Really?
Starting point is 00:13:00 Wow. Do you struggle to understand them sometimes, Neil? Because I don't know what producer Ella's saying half the time. Absolutely. Way out of my death. So as the granddad of your workplace, and you must have been that for a long time, what's your advice to Bree as the nan of ZM? How can she navigate her way through this confusing young world? Any good creams you can recommend, Neil? Make sure that you get your birthday banger up.
Starting point is 00:13:27 That's the first thing. Oh, yeah. So you've got to have that. Would you? I mean, you're a great job because, you know, you get constant lots of people, lots of fun, lots of laughter. Keeps you young, right? Yeah, that's the way to go.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Yeah, okay. I like what you're saying, Neil. Have we done your birthday banger, Neil? Oh, I'm afraid to say I'm guilty. Yes, you have, and I can't remember what it was. Oh, no, wait there. We'll get the girls to figure it out for you. Can you hold the line for us?
Starting point is 00:13:55 Hold there, Neil. Okay, thank you. We asked people to contact us if they were the nan or granddad of their workplace. And we've had nothing but the opposite apart from Neil. Everybody's messaging through who is the baby of their workplace and what it's like to work with people like you. Stop putting me in a different boat to you. You're older than me.
Starting point is 00:14:15 It just feels so good for a change. Someone said, bro, the oldest guy at my workplace is 68. I'm the youngest at 34. That's double your age. Yeah, wow. Yeah, they could learn a lot from you and you could learn a lot from them. Yep. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Someone said, guys, hire me. I'm old and radio seems way better than working in a funeral home. Yeah. Come on down. Yeah, come on down. Come on down. We'll take you. I'm not the oldest.
Starting point is 00:14:40 We'll take them if they're a woman and they're older than me. That's the new hiring criteria for ZM. Yes, they have to be older than me. Yeah, and a woman. And a woman. Okay, good. That's it. I don't think we can get in trouble for that.
Starting point is 00:14:52 You're hired. Yeah, yeah. I'm not the oldest, but I am the youngest by nearly 30 years, and I'm the manager. Oh, wow. That's interesting. I'm not the nan, but I'm easily 20 years younger than my workmates. It's so weird. They're all talking about menopause and adult children, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:15:14 I have a cat. Yeah, it'd be quite difficult at the water cooler, wouldn't it? Well, this is the thing. You have to find common ground, don't you? But then I feel like some of the best friendships are the age gap friendships. Totally. They're the best because you learn so much more from them because they have a different perspective. We've got Neil back and we've actually managed to figure out Neil's birthday banger.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Are you there, Neil? I'm still here hanging around. Okay, so we haven't got the numbers for you. but Claudia's figured it out. What is your birthday, Neil? 25th of March, 55. So 1955. Okay, that means Neil.
Starting point is 00:15:52 You were 16 in 1971. And here's your birthday banger. I will know. Have you ever been? Oh, Neil, it's a banger. That is an absolute banger. Credence, Clearwater. Yep, we're libel.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Neil, this is one of my all-time favorite songs. Yeah, Neil, you're a hoot. You're a hoot, and we would like to officially ask you to be the granddad of ZM instead of Fletch. Are you keen? I'd have to come to your office. Yeah, we'll have you. Yeah, come, because Brie can't get into her email, so she needs an IT person. That's actually a true story.
Starting point is 00:16:30 Yeah, but I get young IT people to help. Yeah, so does Brie. And I still can't do it. Z&M's Brie and Clint. Time for the tea. This is the tea Robbie Williams Man Robby Williams is in the news
Starting point is 00:16:48 A lot at the moment Yeah, he has been He had that doco come out That he had the movie come out Where he was a monkey Yeah, he's touring He's touring again He's also on what he calls
Starting point is 00:17:00 The Fat Jabs Which is the weight loss injections What does he call him? Fat Jabs I didn't realize he'd been taking OZMPIC Me neither You never know though do you
Starting point is 00:17:12 with celebrities, or anybody, I guess. He is saying that he believes the fat jabs in his words are making him go blind. It's probably a good reason not to take him. He said he went to an American football game the other night and the players were just blobs on a green field in front of him. And he said, what the F is happening? Now, bear in mind he's 51
Starting point is 00:17:33 and people have put it to him that he's just getting old and his eyes are going. Yeah, but if it's drastically changed, then it could be from that. Yeah, yeah. So he reckons it's one of the side effects. And this is the thing about these new drugs is nobody truly knows long term what the side effects are.
Starting point is 00:17:53 And I'm not saying you shouldn't take them. I'm not a doctor. You should never listen to a radio presenter's advice on anything. They do say that. But we don't know. It's like vaping. Nobody knows the long-term effects. There's not enough research.
Starting point is 00:18:05 Did I hear right there's something called OZempic? O-Zempic downstairs for men. Like wear it. Really? Where it makes it really hard or not, actually. I've not heard, yeah, I've not heard that. But could it also, I don't know if you've got a thicker one, could it make it thinner?
Starting point is 00:18:27 I don't know. That's a great question. You know your feet, you know your feet, if you lose enough weight, you lose sizes. In your feet? In your feet. Well, yeah, when you get pregnant, you can gain a shoe size. Yeah, wild. We just don't know, Bree.
Starting point is 00:18:42 We just don't know. But what you just said is enough to scare me out of taking it for life. That's the T. Dead Am's Breed and Clint podcast. I saw this article on the New Zealand Herald website today, and the title was, What to Do If You Hate Your Son's Girlfriend, and She Can't Stand You Too. Which I found interesting for a few reasons.
Starting point is 00:19:06 Firstly, why just son's girlfriend? Why not do you hate your daughter's boyfriend? Yeah. Or your son's boyfriend. Yeah. Or your girls or your daughter's girlfriend. Yeah. Have we covered everyone?
Starting point is 00:19:19 I think we've got everyone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Anyway, some of the advice that it includes, and I believe this article is speaking specifically to mums who hate their son's girlfriend. Yeah, because no one will ever be good enough for their sons. Well, that's the stereotype, isn't it? That's the stereotype.
Starting point is 00:19:37 And that's who I believe this. article was directed at. Okay. Some of the advice included, so this is to the mums who hate the girlfriend. Right. Reflect on why you dislike her. Mm-hmm. Respect your son's boundaries. Communicate calmly and respectfully. Yep. Try to understand their perspective. Mm-hmm. And pick your battles. All good advice. I mean, it is all pretty good advice. Seems simple. Yeah. But it's not always that simple. And it also isn't always logical. Like, I don't know, I haven't been in this situation, but maybe it's like an irrational hatred. Has any of your girlfriend's mum's ever hated you?
Starting point is 00:20:19 No, I've always been pretty popular with the... Well, that's what you think. You wouldn't have known. Well, no, you get a vibe, you know? Yeah, sometimes you do usually know. There was an SNL sketch the other week about missing your ex's dad. I think it was for guys and it was about like
Starting point is 00:20:39 when you broke up with someone and that feeling of missing because you get along better with their parents Yeah and you're like oh I miss them You bond with your girlfriend's dad and you guys would have had beers together and watched rugby together
Starting point is 00:20:51 and things like that And then after the breakup you're like I don't miss her but man I really miss her dad Is it wrong to still hang out with your ex's parents Like if you were friends with them You know Such a good question Like is that frowned upon?
Starting point is 00:21:04 Yeah yeah I think about my ex's parents regularly. Yeah, like, what if you wanted to catch up with one of them for a beer? Oh, totally. I'm like, I wonder what Judy and Brad are up to. Love those guys. I'm over for a canastanite with Judy and Brad. And that is nothing against my current in-laws.
Starting point is 00:21:18 You know, love them too. Yeah. You could have two sets. It's really like going out on the boat with Brad, you know? You should give Brad a call. I should call Brad. I should call him. I thought we could speak to people this afternoon
Starting point is 00:21:30 whose partner's parents don't like them. Are you the hated? so-and-so who stole mummy's special boy away from her. Or maybe it's warranted and you've done something naughty. Oh yeah, maybe you're a total shit bag. Yeah. Maybe you're like an ex-con and... Maybe you cheated on their...
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yeah, maybe you cheated on their son or daughter. On their son or daughter. And they took you back. But not before they went crying to mum and dad and told them everything. See, that's always the risk. And they said, we never liked him. And you said, thanks, mum. And then next week you got back together with them and now it's awkward.
Starting point is 00:22:06 And it's all out in the open. Ooh. Yeah. Are you the person whose partner's parents dislike? And why? And why? And maybe there is no why or maybe you don't know. Maybe it's irrational.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Yeah, you don't know why. Yeah. But we want like receipts, like things they might have said to you that back up your claims. Yeah. How do you know that they don't like you? Yeah. Did they say or do something? Do they buy?
Starting point is 00:22:33 Sometimes they make it really obvious. Do they leave you? out of the secret Santa and everyone else is included. Do they intentionally call you the wrong name? Oh, yeah. Do they call you by their child's previous partner's name who they did like?
Starting point is 00:22:50 Mm-hmm. 0800 dial Zat M where you can text to 96696. We can keep you anonymous this afternoon. We want to know if your partners' parents hate you. The ZM Podcast Network. The question we've asked this afternoon is, your partner's parents not like you?
Starting point is 00:23:08 And why? And why? What's the reason? Maybe there isn't one. Yeah, maybe it's totally irrational. Nobody wants to come on air and talk about this, which is understandable. It's a very touchy subject, but we have received quite a lot of texts. Like this one.
Starting point is 00:23:24 My partner is still super close with his ex's parents, and it does my head in. Oh, that's about our other topic of can you still be friends with your ex's parents. Yeah. So this person would prefer that their partner wasn't still friends with their ex's parents. It would be a bit strange. Yeah, but you can't be jealous of the parents. No, but then it would just be weird to navigate that. You'd be like, oh, I'm going over to Sue and Dave's.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Yeah, and you go, do you mean your ex-girlfriend's house? Yeah. And you go, no, she doesn't own it. Oh, well, Dave, Dave asked me to go around for a barbecue. What's your game? The league's on. Yeah. My husband's mum stopped talking to him because he won't leave me.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Oh. Wow. She's fully emotional blackmailing her son into leaving his wife. Not just his girlfriend, his wife. Yeah. And that's on the mum. That's on the mum. That's on the mum.
Starting point is 00:24:24 What? What? I'd love to know why. Yeah. I'd love to know why. And text us back and be honest. Like if there is a reason. Did you do anything?
Starting point is 00:24:32 But if there's not. Or if you don't know, yeah, text that through. Someone said, she doesn't like me. My partner's mum doesn't like me because she wanted him to end up with her best friend's kid. Oh, she'd already done the matchmaker thing in her head. What a crappy reason not to like you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:51 You know? Yeah. Like, obviously, you just wanted her son to get with her friend's daughter so that they could have more wines and have more Christmases together. But they can still do that. I helped my husband develop a spine and now he doesn't jump whenever his mummy says jump.
Starting point is 00:25:12 And I bet the mum is like he's changed ever since she came into his life. She's poisoned him against me. He's totally different now. Someone else has texted in and said, guys, this conversation is why I like being single. Yeah, I mean fair.
Starting point is 00:25:29 You know it is simple being single, isn't it? Yeah. Um, so Someone said, in my early 20s, my first girlfriend's mum never liked me. Never really found out why, but I was a bit of a dumb-ass dude back then. So in hindsight, I'm not surprised. The ex is now my best friend and her mom is still the only partner's parent to ever hate me. Interesting. Good track record then.
Starting point is 00:25:51 Yeah, it is. And I mean, if you can self-identify yourself as a dumb-ass dude. Yeah. Then you know what? That's a very likable trait. I feel like she should have, you sound like quite a likable dumb-ass. I wonder if she likes them now. Now that they're besties.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Yeah. My partner had to ring his mum for some paperwork so that he could get a passport. And he said, I miss my mum. And she said, if you're still with her, there is no future for us. That's wild. That was seven years ago.
Starting point is 00:26:25 That's awful. We've got a caller here whose mother-in-law wants their partner to leave her. Hello, Anonymous. Hi Anonymous. Oh, that was my text you just read out. No, the seven years hasn't talked in seven years. Correct. Why does your partner's mum, is it a partner or husband?
Starting point is 00:26:44 Husband. Husband, why does your husband's mum dislike you so much that she wants her son to leave you? So from my point of view, we had a mutual falling out with one of his siblings. He had his own reasons and I had mine. Yeah. But she put it all under the same category. that I was the reason. It was you.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Oh, God. Have you since reconciled with that sibling? Nope. No. Yeah, and obviously the mum has just automatically took that sibling's side. Yeah, oh yeah, they're a very good happy family. Yeah. And it's me, my husband and my children, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Yeah, no, good on you, anonymous. That sucks, though. Family stuff, right? Eh, hell off, not ours. Every family's got that stuff. 100%. You know? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:32 Where things just get complicated. Yeah. Okay, well, as long as you guys are happy Anonymous, it's a tricky situation to have to be. Sounds like it's funny, isn't it? People don't know what to say, but, you know. Anonymous, to me, it sounds like you guys are better off without that relationship in your life.
Starting point is 00:27:49 And as sad as my husband will tell you the same thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's hard. I think people struggle when it's family and your blood-related. It's hard when it's your mom. So you put up with being treated. She did badly, but yeah, obviously you've made the right decision. That's how you broke the cycle.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Yeah. I'll listen to you, Anonymous. You've got it worked out Anonymous. Very emotionally mature. Get this one. My ex from six years ago, okay? I'm Chinese and she's Korean. Her mum hated me after one meeting.
Starting point is 00:28:23 She wanted her to break up with me. Eventually, she went on a hunger strike. What? Until we broke up after four months. Okay, that's actually ridiculous. Your ex-partner's mum went on a hunger strike so that they would leave you. Because they mentioned in the text that their Chinese and she's Korean, was it because of that, do you reckon?
Starting point is 00:28:50 It sounds like it. Like if they've mentioned that. Yeah, it sounds like it. That's crazy. Real old-school stuff, hey. That's so old school. Oh, and the dumb-ass dude is text back. Oh, what they say?
Starting point is 00:29:01 From the start. Yeah. Because he said his girl, just to recap, his girlfriend's mom always hated him. Yep, and it's because he was a bit of a dumb-ass dude when he was younger. But they've since broken up and every partner since their mom has loved him. She's the only mom to ever hate him. And then I said, because he's... And they're now best friends.
Starting point is 00:29:18 And I said, does the mum love him now? Because obviously he's still in that girl's life. Dumb-ass dude here, she still hates me. What did you do? You haven't been able to come back from it? He said, he's like, I did some dumb-ass shit. Unless you didn't go on a hunger strike. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Way to make it about yourself, eh? Wild. It's ZM's Brea and Clint Podcast. Back to our topic from before, but not the one we were doing, the topic from before the topic, the one about whether it's okay to still be friends with your ex's parents. Like, do you still hang out with Gary and Susan? Yeah. Without your ex there.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Even though you broke up with Jessica. Yeah, you still want to hang out with Gary and Susan. You still go and see Gary for a beer in the man cave. This text, my mum is still super close with my ex. Even though he's got a new partner and I also have a new partner. And it is super weird having him brought up in daily conversations with my mum. That is bizarre. That one's even more bizarre to me because it's a, it's a mum ex-boyfriend relationship.
Starting point is 00:30:28 You know what it comes down to for me? What? It comes down to how long... Sexual attraction. No. God, is that all you think about? I feel like it's on your brain 24-70. No, every now and then I take a break to play another Olivia Dean song.
Starting point is 00:30:44 Oh, yeah, true. Or think about the world wars. Or the Roman Empire. Yeah. And that's probably about it. Yeah. Very sexual, the Roman Empire. Those bathhouses. Don't get me around a Roman sandal.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I can't control myself. Don't get me near an aqueduct. God, as soon as they... I gush over an aqueduct. As soon as they put on... Oh, the Trojan horse, talk dirty to me. What was I saying? I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:31:10 It comes down to how long the relationship was. Yeah. Like, if it was like a 10-year relationship... Yeah. It's hard because, of course, the mum would have had an actual full decade relationship with your ex. Yeah. So it's hard to just let that go.
Starting point is 00:31:27 But it is a real mark of solidarity to ex-community to excommunicate that person to sort of stand with your child, you know, and go, as much as we loved Clint, I promise we won't talk to him for a while. But let's just say, no one did anything wrong. Yeah. You just fell out of love? Yeah. And it was all amicable.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Yeah. Like, still, read the room. Like, if they... Can we call my mum? I want to know if she's still hanging out with any of my exes. Yeah, that'd be a great question to put to them. To her, yeah. Oh my God, all these texts are coming in.
Starting point is 00:32:01 We've got to do this as a topic. I'm still maxed with my ex's dad and all of his friends. We go for beers sometimes. There you go. I freaking love that so much. The dad is now a part of their friend group. Okay, 0,800M if you want to play, let's get classical. Oh, we've got Mama Di here.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Oh, Mama Dies. Jeez, that was fast. Hi, Mama Di. Hi, Mom. I'm on speed dial. Yeah. Are you listening? No, I'm not to be honest.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Okay, we've got a very simple question for you. You don't need any context for this one, okay? No, just a simple yes or no. So just think about all of my exes from the past, Mum. Think about all my exes? Yes. Are you still friends with any of them? Oh, not friends as such, but I'm more than having.
Starting point is 00:32:58 happy if they ring me or I ring them. Do they ring you? Do you ring them? No. Have you seen any of them recently? I better stop and think about this because it might be... That's not a good sign. No.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Probably there's one, I suppose, maybe. Which one? I feel like I'm being cheated on by my own mother. Which one? No, don't get her to name them. You said it would be yes or I know. So that's yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:33:33 That's the answer. Yes. Yeah. Well, we need to have a conversation off air, Mum. I need to know who. Let me clarify something. It's not my fault that Brianna goes out with the most fabulous people. So how can I not be friends with them?
Starting point is 00:33:48 Oh my God. That was a beautiful way to navigate that. Yeah, now I just love you even more, Mum. Yeah. Oh, she does. She goes out with beautiful people. and then she expects me to break it off. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:02 This is what I was saying. It's hard. If you date someone for a long time, you bring these people into your family's life and then you rip them away. Also, your mum's really making it sound like you've dated so many people. Your mum's like, that's wonderful giggle of people. Well, she hasn't dated that many, but I can honestly say out of the one she's dated,
Starting point is 00:34:23 there's probably one that wasn't suitable for her. I'm not saying she wasn't a lovely person. Yeah. Are you friends with that one? No. No. Did you always, like, have these feelings where you were like, oh, this one not good? But you never said that to me until we broke up?
Starting point is 00:34:46 Yes. Yeah, that's exactly right. And that's fair enough. But what she did to you... Why are we having a therapy session on air? Well, what I'm saying is at the time, she was wonderful, but I knew long term, it just, yeah. You know what it was, Mum? You know what it was, and I know you're not saying it, but I know why you didn't like it.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Because she was vegan. Ah, that's probably one of the reasons. Yeah, there we go. We got to it. Hey, thanks, Mama Di, we appreciate you so much. Love you, bye. Love you. See you.
Starting point is 00:35:24 I don't believe me. Bye. Bye. What the hell. What just happened? What just happened? Whatever happens on this show? I don't need to...
Starting point is 00:35:30 I need to cancel my therapy appointment this week. I just had it. A ZM's Brie and Clint podcast. Classical, let's get Classical. The game where we guess pop songs and classical style, it's you and me, Bree, against the evil producer Ella. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Ah, your evil highness. Hello. Ha ha ha. If you've text in backing a team, either Team Bree and Clint or Team Aller, you could be in the running for, I got it wrong before, $50 cash, thanks to Neon. Even better, cash money. So still time to get those texts in. Claudia's in charge of this game. Hi, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Hello. How are we? Good, thanks. Good morning, thanks. Good morning. Morning. Morning. Morning.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yep, that too. Is everyone feeling very zen today? Yeah. I want a nice, clean game from everyone. In the zone. It's lovely to be up for the sunrise. Oh, that's so nice. Okay, the way the game works,
Starting point is 00:36:29 these are pop songs that I've redone in a classical style. You guys just need to buzz in with your name and tell me the name of the song and the name of the artist. Got it. Are we ready? Yes, my lovely friend. Here's your first song. Clint.
Starting point is 00:36:47 Clint, very quick. Oh, Ella. I know it. I know it. He buzzed in for us. I buzzed in too. Clint, you've got to say something. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Clint, Eminem Rihanna, the monster. Well done. That was close. It was there. It was right there. It was right there. You had to have that one. You buzzed in, and then your face immediately was like, oh no.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Oh, no. Okay, well done. You pulled it back. Nice, very nice. One point for Team Brean Clent, but here's another song. Ella! Ella! She's done the same thing as Clint, and her face has dropped. I've got about as much of it as she does. What have you got?
Starting point is 00:37:36 Sorry. Love to dance? No. No. Free guess for us? Quick guess, though. Three, two. Let's go for free.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Nicky Minaj. It's not that. Yeah, go for it. It's free. It's not super bass. It's the other one. Star Ship. Star Ship.
Starting point is 00:37:59 It's correct. She's ready to do it. Hannah, well done. We've got $50 cash coming your way. Thanks to Neon. Yeah, let's go, Hannah. You won, Hannah. Well done.
Starting point is 00:38:36 Sorry, I didn't even realize you were just talking to me. Yeah, it's you. Yeah, you're on, Hannah. I had so much space on you guys. Thank you, mate. Glad we could deliver. You know my birthday? You know my favorite type of pants?
Starting point is 00:38:52 Shut. A down trail. Don't say it. Stop! That's your back sore Nana Bree? We pulled her jorts down and spanked her. Breancloth, my back after this. Play ZDM's Brie and Clint.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Claudia's got a question for everybody. Claudia? Kiyoda, what's up? Is that the question? How are you? Is the question? Yeah, good. Good?
Starting point is 00:39:17 How are you? No, I actually have a bigger question than that. Okay. I was doing, as everyone does, my nightly TikTok scroll. And this video came up, and it's all. about how you remember the north, south, east, and west, like, which direction is which. Yes. And the little sentence that they were using for north, east, southwest.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Yeah, there's like a little saying to remember how it goes. Everyone has a saying. And I just assumed that, I mean, I guess it's regional, but I assumed we all had the same saying, but these guys' ones I've never heard before, which makes me think, does everyone have something different? I was going to do something. Should we listen? Should we all do ours at the same time?
Starting point is 00:39:52 Yeah, we should all do ours at the same time. Because I believe we've all got the same one. I reckon we've all got the same one. Well, Ella, maybe not. I do. Okay. I'm just confident. Ella's all have something to do with the Lorax.
Starting point is 00:40:05 No, okay, here we go. You ready? Yeah. Three, two, one. Never eat soggy wheat picks. Yay. We've all got the same one. We've all had the same upbringing.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Hey, there is balance in the world. Okay. You should hear what these guys say, though. I had to do never eat shredded wheat real quick. What? You had to do what? You don't know that trick for directions Never eat shredded wheat
Starting point is 00:40:28 Yeah, but to remember Never eat soggy waffles Oh, never eat soggy waffles Yes, that's what we had We didn't have shredded wheat Wait, wait Both of them Yes
Starting point is 00:40:39 I love how the first guy says something Completely random And then the other guy's like No, it's this And it's still not right Well, to be fair to them They don't have wheatbicks in America And are wheatbicks
Starting point is 00:40:51 Shred Wheat? Because if they are Because technically... If they are, that's buzzy that it has transcended... Is that like a really buffed weekbicks? Shredded wheat. Imagine how dry that would be. You know what's confused me the most is they say never eat soggy wheatbooks? But isn't that the exact way to eat them?
Starting point is 00:41:11 Yeah, that's how I eat my wheatbacks. Yeah, that's the best way. Wait, okay, hold on. Some people eat them crunchy though. Okay, hold on. They pour cold milk on and then they just go... Oh! Isn't that what you do?
Starting point is 00:41:20 That is animal behavior. Yeah, no, no. Especially the people who eat the multi-grained wheat picks. How are you eating wheat picks? I want to know everyone's wheat picks method. I've told you, and it really makes you mad. You eat yours with water. Boiling water.
Starting point is 00:41:35 Water? My mom did that as a kid. I don't mind that. Are you insane? No, it's nice. Put a little bit of sugar on. You know what's nice? You put the milk in the bowl, you heat the milk up in the microwave,
Starting point is 00:41:48 so it's just nice and toasty. Then you drop your wheat picks in, and then you put the most sugar you've ever seen on top of your wheat picks. That's how you eat them. Now, don't get angry when I say this because I know that you weren't, but in my house we called that
Starting point is 00:42:01 rich family wheat packs. Oh yeah, I never had that as kids. I have it now. Yeah. Guys, there's so many different options. I'm so rich. Back to the north-south and week-ex. There's so many options coming through
Starting point is 00:42:13 on the text machine that I've never heard before. Wait, are there other ones? Nauty elephant squirt water. Someone said I teach my class, never eat slimy worms. Never, that doesn't work. Oh yes, one of the worms. Someone said, never eat wet sausage.
Starting point is 00:42:26 That one doesn't work. No, I think that was for another topic we were doing earlier. That doesn't work. It's meant to follow its way around the compass, clockwise. Never eat wet sausage doesn't work. Nauty elephant smash windows. Never ever smoke weed. Never ever smoke weed.
Starting point is 00:42:43 That works. Never ever smash windows. I've never heard of any of these. Someone goes, did you know that's why it's called the news? north, south, east, and west and south? No, it's not. No, it's not. That's one of those ones where they go,
Starting point is 00:42:57 did you know that the hole in the middle of the pastor strainer is exactly one serving of pasta? No, that's a coincidence. What you're talking about is a coincidence. It's like the one, another one of those is the weather when you look it up and if it says 35% chance and people are like, yeah, that means it's going to rain in 35% of the area.
Starting point is 00:43:19 It's not. Never eat Sophie. Walker, my name is Sophie Walker. Oh, poor Sophie Walker. It's a Tuesday and when we're all here, and actually even when we're not, we go looking for a name in a haystack, the hardest game in radio. So hard, it's never been successfully completed.

Starting point is 00:45:41 I don't have a Ryan. No Ryan. Okay, no Ryan's. Yeah, unfortunately. If there was a Ryan and he'd answered the phone, Sandra, he would have won $2,450 cash this afternoon. Just by having the name Ryan. Well, my second name, as it turns out, it is Ryan.

Starting point is 00:46:47 Shouts the whole customer. Anyone else want to get any more jokes Anyone wants to do before we wrap this up? I'm good I think that's it Alright next Brie has a mystery break for us Oh yes there's someone on the team That I found out recently
Starting point is 00:47:02 Doesn't know how to do a really basic life skill Is it me? Because I've already admitted to not being able to cook No it's not that But I'll tell you what it is next Okay One of my favourite things about doing this job is that our little team, the Brian Clint show, you and me, Clint, producer Claude, producer Ella,
Starting point is 00:47:24 we're a tight-knit fan. Oh, yeah. You know, we know a lot about each other. We spend a lot of time together. We do, we're up on each other's grill for about six hours, seven hours every day. We spend more time with each other than our partners. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Yeah. And that's how I like it. Me too. But rather it that way. It's the secret to a successful marriage. I feel like we just know so much about each other. do it at this stage, yeah. But there was something I learned about
Starting point is 00:47:52 someone in the team, and this is a few weeks ago, like before I went away on my secret missions, I learned this about someone in the team and it hasn't left my mind because it blew my mind so much. Right. And the thing that I
Starting point is 00:48:08 learned was that someone in our team, in the Brie and Clint show, doesn't know how to do sarcasm. Oh. Interesting, right? And I see your face where you're like, how? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Oh, yeah, it's definitely me that doesn't know how to do psychics. Oh, yeah, well, you think it's me? It's definitely me. I bet it's not Ella. 100% not Ella. Oh, no. What say you, producer Ella? Definitely not me.
Starting point is 00:48:41 No, that's not it. I can't do it. You're right, dude. I had discovered this about myself a couple months ago. The other day, a couple of weeks. No. We were trying to teach her, like, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't understand the concept. No, I get the concept.
Starting point is 00:48:58 No, you get the concept, but you couldn't execute. Does she get the concept? Could you explain the concept of sarcasm to us? Oh, here we go. It more comes off the cuff. You can't, like, make it up, like a joke, like a stand-up. And it's more like a dig where you say something that's like the opposite. Yeah, okay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:17 I believe you understand the concept. So you're pretty much, it's the way you say it, which is sarcastic. That makes it sarcastic. Because if you don't use the right inflection, then it's not sarcasm. So let's test it. Let's give Ella something to say and you'll say it normally. And then we want you to say it with sarcasm. I'm going to give you a question, okay?
Starting point is 00:49:45 This is really easy. I need you to respond with sarcasm. Okay. Is that good? Oh, okay. Ella, have you had a good day today? Yeah. Oh, am I meant to do sarcasm?
Starting point is 00:49:56 Yes. Okay, say it again. Ella, have you had a good day today? Been really good. No, I don't know. Okay. How else can we test this? So I reckon she should try and do sarcasm.
Starting point is 00:50:10 That's mocking us being like, oh, yeah, like I really don't know how to do sarcasm, guys. Oh, it's so hard. Yeah. Okay. Okay, so Ella, tell us sarcastically that you do know sarcasm. You would like that, wouldn't you? No?
Starting point is 00:50:30 No. Okay. I also don't know when it's happening when other people do it. I like struggle to get it. I love you so. It makes me love you so much more. You'll come into work and someone and go, wow, nice, and you'll go, my God, thanks. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Thank you so much. And you know what, Ella, I think it's better to live how you're living. Thank you. You know? I got one. That's, okay, yeah. Nice hat, Clint. Is that good? That's still not. That was just, that was just, that was just, that was just mean. That was just plainly mean. That was just blatantly mean. No, this is just a bit. Good hat. That was, that was really bad, wasn't it? No. See, what I made, she doesn't, she can't do it. It's quite bamboozling, how bad she is
Starting point is 00:51:17 at it. And then it confuses my Like listening to her try and do it I love you It's very cute They say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit So maybe Maybe Ella is the smartest one of all of us
Starting point is 00:51:33 Oh yeah she's definitely the smartest Yes Claudia She's got such a high IQ Thanks guys ZDN's Brinclint All I want from my birthday is a birthday banger. Do your birthday bangers for a Tuesday. Number one song when you turn 16.

Starting point is 00:57:33 tomorrow. The ZD.M. Podcast Network. Had this clip come up in my feed today from the diary of a CEO podcast, which is Steve Bartlett. Do you know Diary of a CEO? I've seen it. One of the biggest podcasts on the planet.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Last week or the week before he had Kamala Harris. Did he? Her first proper podcast interview. No, she did call her daddy. Oh, did she? Yeah, when she was running for... No, no, since losing.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Oh, gotcha. Yeah. Her first big one since losing. Okay. And I got halfway through it and it's very long, you know? long? Like an hour and a half. I thought you were about to say, 20 minutes. No, no, no, it's a big one. Anyway, it's not about that. I saw this clip come up today where Stephen Bartlett is talking to
Starting point is 00:58:21 a CEO of a company. Okay. She's a female CEO. I don't know her. You might. Her name is Natalie Dawson. She talks about how she fires people from her company if she finds out that they are cheating on their partner.
Starting point is 00:58:39 Take a listen to this. publicly shared a TikTok about firing somebody because I found out that she was cheating on her significant other and the other person also had a significant other and as soon as I found out about it, I terminated both of them immediately. I can't have this in my environment, especially somebody close around me. People trust me and should trust any leader to help them mate their success easy. One would say that's none of your business, what they're doing. It happened to be around work. But if it wasn't at work, you still wouldn't even if it was, I would fire the person immediately. So you'd fire someone for cheating? That person. person is a liability to the environment. I don't consider that to be my business. Oh, it's absolutely my business. That's controversial. Yes, disgust. How do we feel about that?
Starting point is 00:59:20 Do you think it's appropriate? Like, for example, let's talk about it in our space. If Ross Boss found out that Ella was cheating on her new husband, should Ross Boss, if he could, he can't in New Zealand legally, but if he could, should he fire Ella? No. I don't think so. No? No.
Starting point is 00:59:43 Thank you. I mean, if Ella, if Ella was a priest, maybe. Yeah, I'd be like that is a fireable offence if you're a priest. Unlike the industry you work in, it would depend. Depends on the job. Yeah. If Ella's job was not cheating on her husband. Then yes.
Starting point is 01:00:04 And then we found out she was cheating on her husband. God, how do I get that job? How much do I get paid? I'm already doing that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're cheating? Oh, I'm not. She's not cheating and she's not getting anything out of it.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Yeah, so if I can do it as a... If I can do it as a job, and I'd love that. I obviously agree. I just find it an interesting topic. I don't think that your personal life should have anything to do with your professional life and so long as you're not breaking the law. Unless you are cheating, well, this is one circumstance where I...
Starting point is 01:00:38 What if you're cheating? on your significant other with someone that you work with. So that's what was happening in this example. Okay. So the person in this example was cheating with someone else at work. The two people worked in the company. Both of the people that were in the, that were doing the cheating. We're at the company.
Starting point is 01:01:01 We're at the company and they both had partners outside of the company. Got it. But that woman said that she would have fired them regardless of whether it involved cheating with a co-worker or not. She would have fired them on the basis of being a cheater. Okay. See, I think that does change it a little bit. It does. Because it creates...
Starting point is 01:01:20 Well, you can lose your job in New Zealand if the company says that you can't have relations with people at the work. Yeah, but it's also just like drama and chaos you don't really want in your work environment. Yeah. And what if one of the cheaters is like a boss
Starting point is 01:01:36 or a manager within the relationship? The power and balance. Power and balance. Yeah, so that's a whole different. That would not be good. I'm thinking, what is the saying? Don't shit where you eat. Don't chit.
Starting point is 01:01:48 And I have a lot of shit that work. And guess where I have lunch, guys, right here at work. Shit and clap, baby. Claudia, you've been very quiet in this conversation. You either, you either think that you should be fired for cheating or you're a cheater. Which one is it? open to anything. I'm very single. Claudia's not saying much.
Starting point is 01:02:14 A chance would be nice. Just any opportunity at all. Text us your thoughts, 9696. Also text us if you'd like to cheat on your partner with Claudia. It's ZAM's Bree and Clint Podcast. We're not going to delve back into it because it's too deep. Maybe we could go into it tomorrow. But can I just say the majority of the text we've received on the should you get fired for being
Starting point is 01:02:39 a cheater, the majority of the texts say, yeah, you should get fired for it. Yeah. Which is wild. Which is quite interesting because you and I were kind of like, you probably shouldn't get, you're not getting fired for that. Yeah. I was definitely, and you and I were both considering cheating on our partners. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 01:02:54 And now I'm like, oh, I can't lose my child. Now I'm like, oh, I've got a mortgage to pay. Maybe I won't. So thanks for that, guys. Yeah, thank you guys. Hey, something about me from my childhood, a very, very important. movie, one of my all-time favorite movies growing up was... Pocahontas.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Close. 101 Dalmatians. Okay. It was one of my all-time favorite films. Yeah. Which is why I feel like when I think about a villain character... Oh, she's right up there. Cruella DeVille, for me, is...
Starting point is 01:03:29 She wanted to murder innocent dogs and turn them into a coach. She's one of the most ultimate villains. She's up there with Ursula from The Little Mermaid for me. For sure, for sure. And if you've ever watched, not the cartoon version, but the real version of 101 Dalmatians, Glenn Close plays Cruella DeVille. And it was a performance for the ages.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Like, I feel like she bought that character to life even more. And I saw this clip of her where, because she has the iconic Cruella DeVille laugh. And I saw this clip of Glenn Clow. close recently, seeing if she could still do it. Do you want to hear? Yeah. Take a listen.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Can you still do the Cruella laugh? Yes. You want to do it right now? I mean, yeah. Boy, yes. I'm on camera. I need it. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Every homosexuals, very happy about that. Iconic. I thought we could all give it a go. Sure. This afternoon. God, this is good. It's so. It's got the rasp of a smoker in there, and Cuella Deville did smoke.
Starting point is 01:04:43 Remember, she had the long cigarettes that she smoked? It sounds like a villain. Ella, are you ready? No. Step up to the plate with those blonde eyebrows. You've been wanting us to do theatre sports for a while. Not this one. Here it comes. You just got the 101st dog.
Starting point is 01:05:02 Got him. She's not even trying. That was good. And she doesn't get a second chance. Claudia. Okay. You ready? I hope so.
Starting point is 01:05:10 Do it for the homosexuals. Come on, Claude. Not bad. Mine was better. No, that was better than yours. Yeah, Claudia took it up a notch. Took it up a notch for sure. Okay, I'll go next.
