The ZM Podcast Network. ZM, Brie and Clint. With guest host, Maddie McLean. G'day everybody. Welcome to the show, Brie and Clint with Maddie. Hi Maddie. Hi. I did the show by myself yesterday and I must have waffled on too long.

We can't do that again. They've got me a chaperone for the afternoon. And it's me. And it's you, which I love. Same. Yeah. Sorry, which I love. Same. Yeah. Sorry, did I take too long to answer that? Yeah, you did.

You took quite a while to answer that. I was like, does he, is he, is he not? No, I thought it was just a given. I didn't realise. Yeah. It's like when I say to my husband, Ryan, I love you, and he goes, cool. And I'm like, and then I say to him, excuse me. He does not give you cool.

And then I say, excuse me. And he goes, well, obviously. Yeah. Like, obviously I love you. I get that vibe from Lucy as well. We've talked about this ad nauseum. They are too similar. We are married to the same people.

Yeah. But cool is a hell of a response. I know. Look at what I'm dealing with. Anyway, cool. Thanks, Clint. How many times a day do you say it? Too many.

That's the problem. He's like, you get one. Lucy would say to me, you get one, okay? The rest is on you. Bree's still not feeling well, but hopefully back with us tomorrow. Today on the show, if you have submitted your kitchen hack, we could be giving you a $250

New World voucher at 5 o'clock. A little thing that you do in the kitchen that makes things faster, easier, smoother. You know those people who use the hole in the middle of the pasta strainer. Yes. And that's one serving of spaghetti. I saw someone the other day with a grater grating cheese.

Rather than grating it with the cheese grater up vertical, they tilted it on its side so that all the cheese caught in the middle of the grater. And then you just poured it straight into the dish. That makes a hell of a lot of sense. Yeah. Doesn't it? I've never seen that before. If you go and submit one at Zedium online,

you could score yourself a $250 New World voucher. It's thanks to the new MasterChef cookware items that are available at New World right now. Speaking of prizes, we've got 50 bucks cash up for grabs next. Thanks to KFC and Tradiverse Lady. Maddy has written all of the questions. All of them. So hopefully you watched Breakfast this morning. I do love this song.

It's such a good song. It's such a good song. This is Olivia Rodrigo. We need a Tradie and a Lady on 0800 dials at M right now. Bree and Clint. Time for a round of Tradie vs Lady. It's Tradie vs Lady. Three, two, one, let's go. It's toyie versus lady. Three, two, one, let's go.

It's toy, this game. It's tightening up too. It's down to three games between the tradies and the ladies. Wow. Tradies had a win yesterday. They're on 64. I need to update the board. And the ladies are on 67.

Across the entire year. That's tight. Last time I was here, the ladies were well ahead. They've gone as far as 15 games in front. It's down to three. Wow. It's down to three. But who's going to take it out today? Our lady is calling from Palmhurst to North. She's 17 and she wants to be a

lawyer. Welcome to the show, Lisa. Hi, Lisa. Hi. Are you in the debating club at school? No, I'm not. Are you in the mooting club? I was in the debate team and I wanted to be a lawyer. And I did mooting. I did one mooting.

And I was like, oh my God, this is awful. And I had a complete career change from that one experience in mooting. But I do love talking. I do love the sound of my own voice. I do love Ellie McBeal. So I don't understand what is going on here. Not to put you off your career choice, Lise. I'm sure you're going to make a great lawyer.

You're taking on our trading today. They're 22 and they just tore their ACL playing basketball. Welcome to the show, Harry. Hey, Harry. Hey, how's it going? That's brutal, right? Your ACL. I know.

I was just told before I was just a bit gumbeat on the court at the moment. No good. Well, yeah. No good. No good. Okay.

Harry, your buzzer is tradie. Lisa, your buzzer is lady. First of three correct answers is getting $50 cash from KFC. Good luck. Question number one. X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter

has had to remove an illuminated sign from its head office after complaints it was too bright. Which tech billionaire owns X? Katie. Yeah, Harry. Is it Elon Musk? It is Elon Musk, yeah.

Nice work. Systematically destroying Twitter one brick at a time. Question number two. Kylie Minogue Twitter one brick at a time. Question number two. Kylie Minogue has announced a Las Vegas residency. Did Kylie get her start on Aussie Soap Neighbours or Home and Away? Yes, Lisa. Neighbours. It was.

Well done. Nice work. One apiece. Question number three. Auckland Council still can't catch a pig, which has made itself a home near a busy motorway. Name the famous 90s movie about a talking pig. Lady.

Yes, Lisa. True. Babe. It was Babe. Not too early. It was Babe. Well done. Nice work.

I've never seen it. Good. Harry, you can still come back here, but Lisa, if you get this, it's all yours, alright? Question number four. Silverthorne Grayson Wecky has been ruled out of the rest of the World Cup because of injury. What sport

do the Silverthorns play? Harry, just. Yeah, nipple. Nice. You've tied it up. Okay. Alright, here we go. Whoever gets this takes it out for today. Question number five. What does the B in BLT stand for? Lady.

Yes, Lisa. Bacon. Yeah, well done. She's a lady. Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady. Good work, Lisa. You've crushed that one. It was a tight game, though, a good game,

but you take out the 50 bucks cash thanks to KFC. Thanks, guys. Well done. Now, Harry wanted to do a shout-out, but we can't permit it because he didn't win. Sorry, Harry. Shout-outs are for winners. Good work, Lise.

Good stuff, guys. Bree and Clint with Maddie. Bree and Clint. God, we've been asking some big questions on this show this week. Yesterday at this exact time, and I've got to get your take on it, actually. We asked the question, what colour is a tennis ball? I want you to picture a tennis ball in your mind right now. What colour is a tennis ball?

Ooh. Yellow? See, I say green. Oh, is it green? Is it green? Is it yellow? It was a huge debate on our show yesterday. Did we land on an answer?

No, we got nowhere. Our Instagram poll said 60-40 yellow, didn't it, Claude? That's what that came in at? Yeah, it went yellow and stayed yellow. Claude's got a tennis ball if you want to look at it. Is that green or yellow? Oh, I can't tell. Yeah.

Nobody knows. I think it's like highlighter yellow. Yeah, but why is it a bit green? Yeah, it does have a greeny tinge to it. I don't want to open the scanner worms just yet. We're trying to get an optometrist on the show today to get some kind of clarity on the situation. God, it's the blue gold dress all over again, isn't it?

That's what we said. That's what we said. Anyway, we'll park that for now because we may have an even bigger question to ask this afternoon. You've got a birthday coming up. I do. again isn't it that's what we said that's what we said anyway we'll park that for now because we may have an even bigger question to ask this afternoon you've got a birthday coming up i do big well no it's not a big birthday it's a very it's a decidedly average birthday i would say but we're trying to work out whether that's a tipping point birthday yeah it could be yeah i argue it's not a tipping point birthday yet but but you would. Yes, I would. Yeah. Because it keeps

me young. Younger. Younger. Yeah. Young. Sorry, young. Young. Young. We're trying to figure out if this birthday tips you over from, and you're only a birthday ahead of me, so I need answers on this too. We're trying to work out if this birthday tips you over from being mid-thirties to

late-thirties, which is a terrifying prospect, can I say. And these numbers work for anybody in any decade. Totally. It could be mid-30s to late-30s, which is a terrifying prospect, can I say. And these numbers work for anybody in any decade. Totally. It could be mid-20s to late-20s. Yeah, mid-40s to late-40s. Any age. Any age.

Late-30s has such a gut punch to it. Doesn't it? Doesn't it? It's like, not just 30s. I'm not ready. Not just 30s. Late just i'm not ready not just 30s late i'm not ready you have squandered your early 30s you are done with your mid 30s you're now in your late 30s or are you so how old are you turning next month i am turning 37 and our question is, is 37 or 27 or 47 mid or late? We'll go to Claudia first.

Claudia, you're the only person in this conversation who is on solid ground because you are a round birthday. Yeah, I'm a round number. You're 30. Yeah, full stop. Early 30s. Nah, just 30. Oh, is that not early 30s?

That's early 30s. The way I'm going to look at it is zero, it just 30. Oh, is that not early 30s? That's early 30s. The way I'm going to look at it is zero, it just is. Wait, are you saying that you don't even want to be called early 30s? Nah, I'm just 30 for sure. You just want to be 30? Because that means I could be 32. Imagine. No, you're early 30s and that's fine.

Early 30s is good age. The way I'm going to look at it though is zero, it just is. I feel like one, two and three is early. Four, five, six is mid. Seven, eight, nine is late. No, Claudia, don't do it to me. Don't do it to me. I'm not ready.

It's a very clean way of looking at it though. Where do you stand? You take the round number out of contention. Then you divide it in three. One, two, three is a block. Four, five, six is a block. Four, five, six as a block. Seven, eight, nine as a block. Seven, eight, nine as a block.

I believe that 37 is the last year of mid-30s. Thank you. But you would say that as someone who's about to turn 37 themselves. I choose to believe that. Great. I choose to believe that. Yeah. Your last two years of your 30s or your 20s or whatever it is,

that's the late of the decade. That's the late. I will say my lower back has been killing me of late. Do you want the opinion of a 22, 23-year-old in this situation? I'm happy to take it. Will I accept it? Absolutely not. Let's cross live to producer Ella.

Ella, you are? 22. 22. Yeah. Maddie's about to turn 37. Yep. cross live to producer Ella. Ella, you are? 22. 22. Yeah. Maddie's about to turn 37. Yep. Don't laugh at that. I'm not laughing.

I'm not laughing. That's not, I'm not laughing. That's life experience I've had, Ella. Exactly. Thank you. I respect your elders. I respect you. Is 37 mid or late 30s?

I just, I round up. So late 30s, 40. Sorry. Late 30s is 40. Late 30s is 40. Late 30s is 40. Yeah, like when Claudia was like 29, I was like, okay, she's 30. Yeah, but this is 37.

This is not. Yeah, but I just round it up. Oh, that's brutal. But I round me up from 37 to 40. It's worse than what I said. That's the most Swedish of Swedish rounding I've ever heard. Am I meant to lie? I don't know.

I'm sorry. If anything, you should be rounding him down to 35. I mean, you look 21, so it's all good, man. Damage is done, eh? You can't bring it back. Damage is done. Let's go wide. 0800 dials at M.

Is the 7 mid or late? Just answer this for us. Where does early 30s or 20s start? Where does mid and where does late start? Call us. Tell us where you sit in the age spectrum and we will figure that out together. And we will only accept callers

that agree with me. Please understand that Maddie is feeling fragile at the moment. We said it's a tipping point birthday. Or is it? Is there still a year to go? It's 37 or 27 or 47, but we're focusing specifically on

Maddie's next birthday, 37. Is that mid-30s or late-30s? I say mid. I say mid. I say mid. 38, 39, definitely late. I say mid. Mid. I feel like mid should be longer than late. I agree. Early and late.

Brief. Totally. Real brief. Mid is where you are. It's the middle ground where you spend a long time. I would argue 33 through to 37 is mid. I'm happy with that. So we've asked you, God, Claudia's theory is getting a lot of kudos.

Claudia, can you just state that one more time? Your belief is, which is contrary to what Maddie and I choose to believe. Yeah. How do you view the decades? It doesn't help you guys. I think zero, it just is. Is? So 30 is 30?

Yeah. 31 to 33 is early. Early. Four, five, six is mid. And then seven, eight, nine. Sorry, Maddie is late. Let me just give you a sample of the text. Claudia is correct. Totally agree with

Claudia. Claudia is on the money. I think Claudia has nailed it with her theory. That does not mean that Claudia is correct though. I only sent one of those texts in too. So a great day for Claudia. Not a great day for me. Some of these texts, by the way, can I just say,

Maddie is our guest, okay? He does not deserve this message. Sorry, Maddie, your hair says it all, especially that bit at the front. Hi, is this Ashley and Martin? I have to make an emergency call now. My God. We're asking you to answer it for us on 0800

Dials.com. Heidi is here. Hi, Heidi. Hi. We need to know your politics first. How old are you? I'm early 40s. Early 40s. According to you. At 37, what's Maddie? I'm sorry,

but you're late 30s. No, I'm not! Heidi, I'm not late. You are! It's at the later end of the 30 sorry, but you're late 30s. No, I'm not! Heidi, I'm not. Late. Yeah, it's at the later end of the 30s, so you're late 30s. So let me ask you, Heidi, how old are you? Oh, I'm 42. 42, so when you turn 43 next

year, you'll be in your mid-40s. You're happy with that? Yeah. You're happy with that? Yeah. She's unrepentant. Okay, thank you. I thought I might get her there. Thank you, Heidi. Let's go to Jess. Hi, Jess. Hello, Jess.

Do it for us. Give it to us straight. We can handle it, okay? A different breakdown from Claudia. Okay. I reckon anything before the five is early. Ooh. Okay.

The zero number, I agree, that's the number. So you're 40 or you're 30 or whatever. That's the number, yeah. And then the one, agree, that's the number. So you're 40 or you're 30 or whatever. That's the number, yeah. And then the one, two, three, four is your early. And then five, six, seven are mid. And then eight and nine are late. I'll take that. That works for us.

It's strange logic, but I'm not going to argue with it. I can see it, though. I can see it, though. So you're early. It's like a sliding scale. And then you're mid. And then your late rushes up on you at the end. Yeah, because mid, middle starts from the middle,

and five is the middle of the decade. Yeah, exactly right. And that's the mid, that's the start of the mid. So that means I'm 33, I'm still in my early 30s. Oh, I see why you've done this, by the way you've done it. I like it. At the moment, we choose to side with your science. But one more, let's go to Gav.

Hi, Gav. G'day, guys. How are you? Good choose to side with your science, but one more, let's go to Gav. Hi, Gav. G'day, guys. How are you? Good. Hit us with your theory, Gav. I'm afraid I'm in the Claudia camp. No. How old are you, Gav?

And having been all those numbers and a hell of a lot more, I think I speak with experience. Okay. What number are you? I'll be 62 in a few weeks. Wow, Gav. Early 60s. Yep.

Or late, late, late, late 30s. No, it's really just doesn't give a rat's ass age anymore. Don't give a rat's ass age. Fair enough. So 36 where I currently am, Gav, I'm mid, but as soon as I turn 37, I've slid into the lates. Yep. So you've just got to,

I just think you've just got to suck it up and accept it. All right. Yeah, so you've just got to, I just think you've just got to suck it up and accept it. Alright. Yeah, fair enough, fair enough. We are so nitpicking in this situation by the way. We're debating the semantics of one year. I know. Nothing screams desperately

holding on more than debating a 12 month window, doesn't it? Anyway, Matty's birthday is next month, so if you'd like to send gifts, condolences, whatever it is, feel free. And as Hannah has pointed out, who must know my mum, she's an appearance medicine nurse, so she's a miracle worker. I'm fine for as long as I want to be. Is she?

I didn't know that. I didn't know that. She can sort out any of these lines. Oh, we're good to go, man. We're good to go. Brie and Clint. I saw on your social media last week, Maddie, who's here filling in for Brie today, that you

had a phone-free weekend. We did an interview on Breakfast last week about actually the younger generation using dumb phones. So wanting to stay connected to their friends, but being sick of being attached to their phones constantly.

Yeah, I get that. So getting the old school kind of bricks that they can use just to text and call people if they need to without having to have a smartphone around. I have considered it for like a detox because I definitely, I love my phone and I love everything that I can do with it, but I definitely can get into like,

like, you know, when you're getting the phantom vibrations and you're just automatically checking it. So I've thought about doing it, but I've never done it. So how did it go for you? It was so strange. Yeah. So they took my phone off me on the breakfast show in the morning on Friday. So I had all day Friday and then the weekend

and then I got my phone back on Monday morning. Wow, so more like three days. Yeah, it was a long time. And here's what I realised is just how often you absentmindedly pick up your phone for no reason. It's not like you're needing to check anything or you're wanting to message someone. It's just there's a lull in conversation or you're bored on the couch or whatever

and you just reach for your phone without even thinking about it. Did you still do that with the dumb phone? Yes. And then I picked it up and I went, what am I going to do with this? Unless somebody has texted you or called you. There's literally no reason to have it in your hand. There's nothing else to do with it. So was it hard? Yeah. It was quite liberating, I will say. But it was much harder than I thought. And here's the thing.

It's all the little things that you don't think about, right? Like I'd take my dog for a walk and all of a sudden I couldn't listen to music or I couldn't listen to a podcast. So I just had to walk alone. Or watch TikToks while you walk, which a lot of people do now.

100%. I do it. Scroll TikTok as you're walking down the street. I do it. Yeah. I've walked my dog and watched like an episode of something on my phone if I'm really in the... Have you really?

Yeah. Wow. I know. Yeah. You can't do that on a dog phone. That's how bad my addiction is. Did you run into any other issues where like, say you needed to get an Uber

or you needed to pay for something? Yes, obviously didn't have Apple Pay, so I had to just use my EFTPOS card, which meant I had to take my wallet with me everywhere. I'm not used to taking my wallet all the time. Often I would just take my phone. I thought about the Uber, it didn't become an issue over the weekend,

but I definitely thought that that would be an issue. Other issues, Google Maps, because I'm the passenger, which means I'm in charge of navigation. And I had to borrow Ryan's phone at one point to use Maps in the car. I couldn't, there were so many things I couldn't do. We had a situation where we were watching something and I thought, who is that person in that movie? Yeah.

And you can't just instantly look it up. I couldn't Google it. Yeah. And it made me think of when we didn't have smartphones. How did we? And you couldn't look up something. You must have just had to go, oh, well, I guess I'll never know. Was three days long enough to see any positive benefits

from being detached from your phone? I reckon to make it a habit, you'd need longer. Okay. But it was enough for me to be more aware of how often I use my phone. Yeah. Will it change me? Yeah, that's a good point. Are you going to do a dumb phone weekend a month?

That's a good point. I do have the phone still. You won't. I won't. But it's a good point. But you so could. I could. You totally could. If I wanted to. I could. But you don't. Fascinating. It's an addiction that everybody has and it freely admits to but it's not doing anything.

Maddie's here filling in for Bree today, and he has a serious situation at his house that needs sorting. Yeah, this is what I'm not here for. No. I'm not here for someone walking their dog around our neighbourhood, and I think targeting my berm with their dog's business. Do you actually think that? Do you think maybe someone, maybe like an AM viewer who is like,

that breakfast guy can suck it. I'm a Ryan Bridge fan. Do you think there's a chance it is Ryan Bridge? It could be. Do you think that maybe him or Willy Wadoa might be targeting you, looking to your breaking points, some stealth sabotage.

This isn't just a one-off. It's not like it was one poo on the lawn from a dog one time. This is regular, constant. And I've looked at the size. It seems like it's the same dog doing the business. And we don't believe there's a rogue dog off the leash running around the neighbourhood. So there has to be an owner there who's intentionally leaving the droppings on your front lawn. Yes.

So how do we sort it? How do we find the person? How do we get to the bottom of this? Georgia has called up. Hi, Georgia. Hi, how are you? Good. Are you calling from experience?

Has this happened to you or do you know someone that this has happened to? So it's happening to me and it still has to be to me. It's been probably over a year now. So what have you done about it? So we kind of live in a commercial area. So the dog that actually poops on my lawn doesn't have any grass. So it runs to my house and it poops on my grass or it runs across the road. And I'm like, I don't really want to yell at the dog to get off my grass.

It's not the dog's fault. He's just looking for the nearest bit of grass to do his business on, as dogs do. Yeah, exactly. And then I once saw the owner and I was like, hey, it's really annoying that your dog poos on my lawn, as a hint. And then he never did anything about it. Never did anything.

So I still pick it up today. I was going to say, so where do you go from there? And you've gone, well, I just have to pick the dog poo up. Yeah. That doesn't help us at all. So your answer is, I just have to put up with it? Yeah, suck it up. Suck it up.

Okay, thank you, Georgia. Someone texted in and said you should put salt on your lawn. No, we don't want to burn the bottom of the dog that's doing the pose. We also don't believe that it's the dog's fault. It's not the dog's fault. It's the owner's fault. Also, I feel like that would kill your lawn. But salt or chilli powder,

and I don't know if that's to stop the dog from squatting on the lawn or whether something about it just puts them off altogether. The smell or the... Yeah, the scent maybe stops them even going near it. The weird neighbour out there with your salt grinder. Grinding salt onto your front lawn. Lorraine's here. Hi, Lorraine.

Oh, hi, Matty. Do you have an... Can you help lawn. Lorraine's here. Hi, Lorraine. Hi, Matty. Do you have an... Can you help me, Lorraine? Put a security camera up. Yeah. Take your dog from three blocks away. It might not be your neighbour. You might be going and dropping notes in your neighbours

and letterboxes and it's like, not even someone three blocks away or anywhere. So let's play this thing forward. Matty gets footage of the dog that's doing it and the owner. Then what? Yeah. Yeah, what do I do? Maybe then you can have that conversation or...

But what if he can't positively identify the person? Does he then go on the local Facebook page and post a screenshot of the person and the dog and say, do you know this person? I do belong to my local community page, so maybe I could put them on blast. Do you want to be that person? I don't.

But you could do it anonymously. Can't you post stuff anonymously? That would be funny. Yeah, okay. Thank you, Lorraine. We appreciate it. Let's go to Kirstie on 0800 dial ZM. Hi, Kirstie.

Hi. What does Maddie do? How do we solve the mystery pose situation at Maddie's house? I'm not sure how to solve it other than maybe help it, you know, not be so filthy. You could have a little rest dock on your berm. You could have a little water bowl and attach a canister of poo bags to the fence with a little cute little sign that's saying,

hey, help yourself. You can provide a community service. A cute little passive-aggressive. You could attract dogs from all over the neighbourhood. You could go from having one dog pooing on your front lawn to having every dog in the neighbourhood come and poo in your front lawn. And everyone goes, oh, yeah, the bags are just there.

Yeah, that's the place to go. What if that happens, Kirsty? What do we do then? I'm not sure, but on a positive note, you might be able to get endorsed by Animates or something with free poo bags for life or something. Kirsty, you're a genius. We need to monetise this situation.

Smart. Let's go straight to the top. We need to get Animates on the phone. We need to get Tux. We need to get some dog food that's full of fibre so we can get those stools as solid as possible. I love what you're thinking, Kirsty. That's a great idea. Thank you so much. Thank you, Kirsty.

We have had some correspondence from someone who says, it's a cat, man. It's a frigging cat. I've had the exact same problem. Well, this cat must be bloody enormous. There's no way this is a cat doing this business. Take a photo of the, next time it does it, take a photo of the poo,

post it on your Instagram account to your followers and just write the caption, who did this? I think that's the way to go. I think that's how we sort this thing out. Smart. Yeah, you do that and we'll share it. Okay, great.

Bree and Clint. It's the way to go. I think that's how we sort this thing out. Smart. Yeah, you do that and we'll share it. Okay, great. It's time to get classical. Have you played this game yet, Matty? I haven't, but I know it. The premise is Claudia has found ZM songs performed in classical style. Great. And it's our job to figure out what that song is. Name and title of the song

and artist will get you a win in this game. That's right, eh, Claude? Yeah, but I'm going to put some caveats on this one. These songs would be in the Friday Jams category, and I have heavily weighted them in Maddie's favour. I love you, Claude.

You obviously thought I need a challenge. Yeah, yeah. I need you to, like, keep your brain sharp, you know, because you always find it so easy. I was going to say, I was going to say, I don't think I needed a challenge, but okay, we've got it. No worries.

Yeah, but like you said, I've taken pop songs, turned them classical, and you just need to tell me the artist's name and the name of the song. You can buzz in with your name. Good luck. Maddie. Oh. I want it in with your name. Good luck. Maddie. Oh. I want it that way, Backstreet Boys.

That was incredible. Can I hear the classical? Yeah. It makes quite a beautiful... It does. at the classical. That's quite, makes quite a beautiful. It does. I can imagine walking down the aisle

to this. I was going to say, it'd be a great wedding song. Yeah, I want to get married all over again. Yeah, okay,

hey, well done. Thank you. That was rapid. Thank you. Yeah, that's one point to Maddie. Let me guess,

the next one's S Club 7. Oh, that would have been a good one. No, but it's this. Maddie, no. guess, the next one's S Club 7. Oh, that would have been a good one. No, but it's this. Maddie. No. That's Wannabe Spice Girls.

Yes it is. No. Okay, the first one I heard it. That one I didn't. You did it? Okay, right. Still, to get that off two notes. Thank you. Far out. Yeah, a quick game is a good game, right? I mean, they were my childhood.

Yeah, but not like this. Maybe it won't be a complete pantsing though. Clint, you can get this one. Can I? You can try. Maddie. No, you do not. Yes, that is Dancing Queen, Ebba.

It is. You got that. No. The only place it's written down is on this piece of paper right in front of me. There's nowhere else you can see it. Wow. I've just found my new talent. Can I... Okay, yeah, I hear it now.

Hey, well done. No one's ever done that in this game. Thank you. I don't know how you use that skill in any positive... How do you monetise that? You can't monetise anything like that. It's a useless skill, but I'm here for it. He's got it.

Brian Clint. A new study from the University of Minnesota has revealed which, quote which quote on quote healthy foods Are actually not very good for you I don't want to burst anybody's health kick Oh you're going to though aren't you But I feel like if you're doing the work Like if you're in there pumping the iron

You need to be informed Doing the cardio If the thing that you are having after that Is negating all of your good work, you deserve to know. Do you also have things that you know aren't good for you, but you've tricked yourself into thinking are healthy? Yes, dark chocolate. Ginger nuts.

Oh. Something about the ginger feels healthy to me. Oh, okay. You claim the ginger and the ginger nuts is healthy. Yeah, good, good. I'm not here to tell you otherwise. Thank you. I do not have ginger nuts on my list.

Okay. Okay? I'll leave those alone. Those are sacrosanct. Okay, so these are, you tell me if you already knew deep down that these weren't that healthy for you, okay? A few things.

First thing, flavoured yoghurts. Oh. It says many people eat flavoured yoghurts every day and they feed them to their kids thinking that they're healthy, but they don't realise that they are an ultra processed food. Ultra. Yeah. It's not talking about like

your Greeks. Your Greeks. This is your acidophilus. This is your chocolate yoplais. Yeah. I don't know if they're coming for the fresh and fruity in this category. Right. God I love a fresh and fruity. So good. Those one litre tubs of fresh and fruity and this category? Right. God, I love a fresh and fruity. So good. Those one litre tubs

of fresh and fruity and you can just slop massive spoons of it onto your Weet-Bix. Well, you might be out of luck. No, I choose not to listen to that. That only goes for chocolate Calcium. Calcium is fine too. Let's leave Calcium alone. If your kids are eating it, it's fine.

Second, these are foods that everybody thinks are healthy but actually not that good, according to the University of Minnesota. Granola. Oh, what? I asked the question on my Instagram earlier this year, what's the difference between muesli and granola? What is it?

I don't know. Is it bigger chunks, chunkier? I think it's toasted. Right, but you get toasted muesli. Yeah, but then what's toasted muesli? Claudia, do you know the answer to this? I feel like granola, like you said, has got the chunks, which are like...

It's clumpy, eh? It's clumpy, but that must be something that's made that's not just oats. It says granola can contain date syrup, maple syrup, coconut blossom syrup, or coconut sugar. That sugar content is going to affect your blood sugar levels

and give you cravings later in the day. What? So you're telling me if I'm having a granola with some fresh and fruity on it, then it's not necessarily the best thing for me? I choose not to believe this. You are really bursting people's bubbles here. I need to bring producer Ella in for this one because the next item on the list of things that you think are healthy for you

but not actually that good for you is vegan meat. The vegan meat's not necessarily that good for you. What one? Just plant-based. Which one? Plant-based meat often made from pea or soy proteins often lack genuine nutritional value.

Things like iron and zinc which are required for maintaining the immune system, helping make the body resistant to infection, and helping your wounds heal. Get back on the sirloins, babes. Nah, half of meat is not healthy, is it? Get back on sirloin. I'm going to slap dunk and leave you. I think meat's pretty healthy.

Nah. I like a bit of meat. Okay, some of it. Some of it. Okay, I chose not to believe the other stuff. You pick and choose what you want. I'm not believing it. Okay, cool, it's off the list.

Sorry, science. Next one. Nobody thought this was healthy, but you do it anyway. Sports drinks. Oh. Like a Gatorade or a Powerade or something. A fluorescent blue sports drink. You're guzzling it down.

You're like, this is fine. It says they contain a surprisingly high amount of sugar. For example, a 500ml bottle of Gatorade Cool Blue contains 20g of sugar. 20g! 20g! But the All Blacks drink it, mate. Yeah.

It's fine. Aaron Smith drinks it. Hello, and he's got abs. He's got abs. Yeah, we choose not to believe that. This is good. This is getting to the bottom of things. Instant soups, those powder ones that you pour into a mug at three o'clock.

They said it's just salt. It's just salt and flavouring. I feel like it's a hearty cup of tomato soup that just happens to be powderised. Totally. Yeah. Chicken noodle. Yum. And what if you add the packet of onion soup to thicken it up?

Oh, to your chip and dip. To your chip and dip. Yeah. That one's on the list. And the last one is a protein bar. God, I love going to the gym and then having like a pre-mixed protein shake and a cookies and cream protein bar covered in chocolate

and just be like, this is good. Yeah. This is dem gains. Yeah, I'm going to get... I'm ripped. Look out, Summer. Here I come.

Yeah. Hong's feeling a bit of George, though, tonight. Wait there. We're going to pick a winner of Birthday Banger today out of Niles Barkley, Rihanna, and George Michael. What are you voting for, Matty? Guest host of the Brian Clint Show? I'm tempted to go for George because I do love him.

But I'm taking me back to my uni days and I'm going SOS. SOS, Rihanna? Rihanna. I'm going to back to my uni days and I'm going SOS. SOS Rihanna? Rihanna. I'm going to be brave and vote George Michael, Careless Whisper. Which means we take this thing to a split vote. Claudia, what's the winner of Birthday Banger today? I do love this song,

I knew it was a good one yeah there it is it is a good one too coming straight out of 2006 this is your birthday banger it's Rihanna you're on ZM

Bree and Clint with Maddie I've never felt like this before Bree and Clint ZM Bree and Clint with Maddie, that's Rihanna SOS, the winner of Birthday Banger from 2006. We listened to my Fridayoke of Niles Barkley, Crazy, which I incorrectly remembered as being quite good. Claudia's just dragged up your last Friday-oke that you did. I don't. She, I wasn't here.

So it's Murder on the Dance Floor, which I thought I, again. This is the same situation. You remember it being good. And then, oh, no. So that's, the memory of it is positive. This is the reality of Maddie's. It's Murder on the Dance Floor. It's better on the dance floor. But you better not kill the groove.

You know, it's good. Well, I murdered something. Murder on the microphone. Okay, all right, all right, all right. Hey, I have to be very careful about how I phrase this next thing I have the list of the top careers associated with infidelity for women specifically

Right, so if you're a woman who cheats we know what kind of a job you do? Yeah, that's a good way of looking at it This is information from a divorce attorney who has revealed the top female professions most likely to cheat on their partner. These jobs aren't specifically female jobs, but in the divorces that this attorney has presided over,

where the woman has been the one that has cheated in the marriage, she has collated the data and she's found the most common job. Right. Okay. Or jobs. Yeah. You get what I'm saying. I get it.

If you do one of these jobs or if your partner does one of these jobs. Watch out. She's more likely to cheat on you. Let's just play the list. Let's play the list and then we'll debate it. Okay. Here it is. I'm going to

give the top two spots to women who are the breadwinners income earners more likely to cheat beyond that we have singers or entertainers flight attendants and these ladies who are social media influencers getting too popular online. So let's break it down. Women who earn more in the relationship. Yep. According to this divorce attorney, by the way, her name is Kate Simons of Simons Law Group.

This is her data, okay? Yep. She's crunched the numbers. She's not just pulling this out of thin air. No, no. Women who earn the most in the relationship, who are the breadwinner. Women who are singers for a job.

Entertainers. Yeah. Flight attendants. Flight attendants I get. Because you're flying in and out of different ports. You've got nights in free hotels that the airline's paying for. I have firsthand, not experience. I wasn't cheated on by a flight attendant. No, right.

But I know. I know one that ran off with a pilot. Wow. And what a cliche. What a cliche. That's all I'll say. And then social media influences. Yeah, so.

Well, you get that because because if people were constantly... And they would be, right? They'd be sliding into your DMs. Hey, babe, do you got a discount code? No, but do you want to hook up? Yes. According to this divorce attorney, she can also pinpoint the least likely professions to cheat.

Oh, right, okay. So these are the most trustworthy... These are the most trustworthy. If your female partner is in any one of these professions, you're good to go. You're sweet. You're solid as a rock. Okay.

Female accountants, not cheating. Are any accountants cheating? They'd be good at hiding the purchases if they were cheating. They absolutely would, but they don't have the banter necessarily to get there in the first place. Oh, Matty, that's unfair. Women in marketing. Oh. I don't get that one.

I don't get that either. And women who work with animals, scientists and teachers. Right. Those are the least likely to cheat. Okay. Do with that information what you want. I can't, I will not be held responsible for any fractions, factions, fractions, fractures that causes a new relationship.

I'm just giving you the data. What I thought we could do this afternoon is use no science whatsoever and say what professions we think are the most likely to cheat. Men and women. Oh. What job do you think has the most cheaters in it,

in your experience? People who do this particular job, in your opinion, are the most likely to cheat. I'm just trying to think of what is going to, what kind of a job would get attention, you know? Where are you going to work that someone is going to be drawn to you? Drawn to you. You've got a level of notoriety.

Maybe your face is on billboards. Maybe you meet a lot of people. It's a glamorous industry where there's a high money turnover. Real estate agent. Well, thank you. I know what your husband does for a job. I don't want to start any rumours, but to me, it seems like a profession in which there would be a lot of infidelity

going on. You've got access to other people's houses. You have places that you could do these things. Oh, what? Take someone for a viewing at a house you're selling and you bone in the bedroom. I don't know. Do whatever you want. I don't know. I was going with something like

a cop or a firefighter. You know, someone in uniform. Because that's a very sexy profession. Yeah, it is. People are constantly ogling you. And then I think

could lead you down. You work strange hours. It could lead you down. You work strange hours. Yeah. It could lead you down the wrong path. They've got bunk beds at the fire station. All of that attention on you could lead you down the wrong path. Hey, Auckland has its second sinkhole

in two weeks. Two sinkholes in two weeks. This one has popped up in Otahuhu. I know the country is plagued by potholes currently. These are not potholes. No. These are sinkholes. Yes. Much bigger, much spookier than a pothole.

The ground has literally opened up. Yeah. Harder to explain. Much more stranger things, a sinkhole. Truly. Than a pothole. A pothole you can go, oh yeah, road's been neglected. Too many big trucks have been driving over it no hole in the road this is a this is like a this is a chasm it's a portal to another world it's what it seems like yeah uh first sinkhole was on uh as in the

city it was on in freemans bay and you could watch this thing on twitter literally opening up there were videos of the sinkhole collapsing into itself, more and more and more. And luckily it had four road cones around it so that nobody drove into it. I know someone that lives in an apartment right above it. Yeah. So they can see it from their apartment. We tried to get producer Ella to report live from the sinkhole. And?

We tried to send her down the sinkhole. You couldn't go down there? No. No. She was keen. You were keen, eh, Ella? Yeah, chuck me down there. It was a metre and a half deep.

What if you never came back up? You know, I work hard, so, you know, for the job. For the job. Imagine the tick-tock. Your friend who's near the sinkhole, has it been covered up? Still can see it. And imagine if that was your view, you'd be terrified that it would just keep getting bigger and bigger. And eventually, there goes your apartment.

The new sinkhole is on Princess Street in Otahuhu. It's reportedly just under half a metre wide and about 30 centimetres deep. We don't understand where these, what they, how they. No, why they. What is a sinkhole? Yeah. What's the deal? And we asked for a sinkhole expert to call us on our $800,000.

We got nobody. No one knows. Nobody knows. Except producer Claudia, who claims to know how sinkholes work. Because of a scientific background or just a theory? I think I'm pretty, I think I've got it. You think you've got it? I don't have a scientific background.

So it's not based on anything? This is just your vibing? I've read about them. Not extensively, but they've been in the news. Okay, she says nonchalantly sucking a lollipop. Go for it, Claude. You tell us how sinkholes work and we'll tell you whether we believe you. Witchcraft.

No, I'm kidding. It's erosion under the road, usually by water. It's taking away everything underneath the top layer and then eventually there's this empty chasm. The top layer has to give at some point. How did all the water get under the road? Either pipes or drainage or...

Burst pipes? Sometimes. Leaking pipes. Yeah, but roads are solid, like solid asphalt. The top of it is. Yeah. But underneath is dirt. Yeah, but if the dirt slips away, surely the asphalt is so solid it stays in place, no?

They're not that thick, are they? It's soft. Asphalt is pretty soft. I'll give Claudia that. Okay. That is pretty soft. So, it's, so, okay. I'm pretty sure it just creates a big hole underneath it.

Yeah. Because of, like, the water's taking everything away from underneath it. And it has been raining a lot in Auckland recently. It has been raining a lot. Does that mean... Can you fix sinkholes then? If everything's slipped away, how do you repair the sinkhole? How do we stop the sinkhole from reopening?

I'm no engineer. How do we stop a sinkhole from appearing underneath, say, our house or something like that? I don't know if you can. Oh, do you know what's terrifying? I grew up in Rotorua, and around the geothermal areas in the 2000s, they started having holes appear, like geothermal geysers appear underneath people's houses. And you had to leave your house because all of a sudden

you had a geyser under your house, and then the crust of the earth would move away, and the houses started to slowly sink into the ground. Yeah, this has given me major flashbacks. Yeah. Yeah. It's like a free spa pool. No, no.

This is a geothermal boiling hot geyser, Claudia. A really hot spa pool. People from Rararua hate it when you say things like that. There's a really, really hot, really... Serious, right? Take it seriously, Claudia. All right, did we get to the bottom of it? I don't know

but watch out if you're on otahu sinkhole sinkhole i've talked for a little while about the difference between um men and women's bedtime routine like what it takes to get ready for bed yeah right of the day and before you tell me how this operates for you personally i want to play you this tiktok that I watched last night, which just spoke to me. This lady has summed up exactly how I feel about bedtime, for me specifically. Tell me if you relate to this.

Reason number 20, A, why I love men, is because they just go straight to bed. You know, there's no bedtime routine. It's like, BRB while I wash my face, 10 steps skincare, and changes my pajamas. Pajamas? What did you just say? They've never never heard of that it's drop the shorts on the ground jump into bed they're probably gonna brush their teeth and that's the max that's happening you know they

see you using the moisture it's like what is that do i need that okay whatever pops into bed i love it efficiency you know they're not wasting time on anything and as ridiculous as it sounds that lady is describing my exact bedtime routine. Oh, I feel it. The only thing that's missing is pop two magnesium tablets. That is my bedtime routine. Pop two magnesium tablets, brush my teeth, drop my pants, hop into bed.

I feel it. And truly do just leave the pants on the floor by the side of the bed. Yeah, because then my track pants, because I've been watching TV. They're not going in the drawer. And then when I get up, I can pull the track pants back of the bed. Yeah, because they're my track pants because I've been watching TV. They're not going in the drawer. And then when I get up, I can pull the track pants back on.

Exactly. Yeah. So you, Matty, do you have any semblance of a bedtime routine? I know... What happens for you? The only thing I do, I do lay everything out for the next morning

because I get up so early. Yeah. I don't spend any time in the house. No. The morning that I go to work. Out of courtesy for your partner because you get up so stupidly early. So I literally get up. I leave my clothes outside of the bedroom even.

I get changed outside of the bedroom. Yeah. So all I do is I lay my clothes for the next day outside of the bedroom and make sure my keys and my wallet are ready to go. And then I just brush my teeth and hop into bed. Yep. That's it. That is it.

Do you have pyjamas? No pyjamas. No pyjamas. No pyjamas. Will you sleep in the T-shirt that you've worn that day? No. No? Just whip that off as well?

Yep. Oh, you're a nude sleeper, right? I'm a nude sleeper. Oh, yeah. Even less routine. We've talked about this. Oh, yeah. Sorry, I forgot.

Anyway, point proven boys don't have a bedtime routine and it's a good thing I think it's perfect we're happy for it you're a dad

so you will have been to the zoo I'm assuming a few times yeah correct yeah the kids love it right love it

to be fair my 31 year old adult husband loves the zoo. I loved it. Yeah. I loved it. Having kids gives you, I mean, you can go anyway,

but it gives you a reason to go and do all these things. We went to the museum last weekend. Loved it. Two T-Rexes at the museum. Incredible. Get out of here. Incredible. What have I been doing all this time?

Why haven't I been at the museum? I know. Hard to know who had more fun, the kids or me, to be honest. But yes, we do go to things like the zoo. Well, a zoo in China has had to reassure its visitors that there's nothing wrong with their beer enclosure. Okay. Visitors started to notice something a little off about the beer.

This is their Malaysian Sun Beer. There's only one of them. Yeah. And it's in its own enclosure. Oh, I always feel sad when there's only one of any animal. That's not what we're, we're not here to discuss the, yeah, the sadness of the beer.

Oh, okay. I rescind my comment. I'm fine with it. No, you're allowed to believe that. That's just not the focus of the story. Oh, sorry. The story is getting a lot of attention because of some of the images of said beer.

Okay. At the zoo where people have said, is that a beer? Right. Or is that a person in a beer costume? Okay. All right. I've got the photo.

Yep. And I want to bring it up and I want you to have a look at the photo Okay, Cordy's just put it on the screen now Quick look Um, that bear's wearing track pants First of all, it's standing on its hind legs Which I do believe bears can do

But not like that, right? The bo- Wait, it's got, wait, that is... So here's the things I know. Here's the things I notice. First of all... It's very erect. It's super erect

and it's standing on kind of flat feet like shoes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's also got weird arms where it's almost like the hands haven't quite fit through the... It's got elbows. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, that's before we move up to the neck where the consistency of the fur changes substantially.

Considerably. And then the head looks too high. Don't you think? It's a really long neck. And on a natural look, the face looks like a mask. The mask definitely looks like a mask. But then the more you look at it, I could believe that that's a bear in the face. Possibly.

But then if you go back down to the bum, it looks like there are folds in the material that the costume's made out of. Yeah, it looks like they're wearing baggy track pants. Yeah. But the zoo is adamant. This is a real bear. There's nothing, there's no funny business going on here. If I had to place a bet on it, I would say that as a man in a bear suit.

But if it is, why would you just have one? Because like we said, one animal is depressing. Why not get two men in costumes? I'm assuming sun bear costumes are not cheap. So maybe they could only fork out for one.

I disagree. That bear costume looks quite cheap. That is the look sharp version of a bear costume. Can we put this up on social media for the listeners? Yeah, let's put it in our story and get a bit of a vote going. I think so. Is this sun bear, is it a man in a bear suit? Is that rude to the sun bear?

Maybe we have absolutely no idea what we're talking about. To be honest, I've never seen a Malaysian sun bear before. Neither have I, to be fair. So I have nothing to compare it to. But that says a man in a suit. That's a man in a tracksuit pants.
