Good afternoon, everybody.
Happy Friday, it's Brian Clint.
Oh, we love a Friday, don't we?
We do love a Friday.
Feels different, tastes different, smells different.
The Brian Clint Show is soon to be home to the Private Parts song Remix.
Not today, but it is in the works.
Yeah, look, I just want to apologise.
I know there has been a lot of buzz around the Private Parts remix,
and I tried my best, but we don't want to rush these things.
No, you want to get it right.
We want to make sure that it's right,
and I promise that next week it will be debuted.
And it will be every bit of what you think it's going to be.
And if you touch my private bus, private box, private box,
and if you touch my private pass, I would.
Who else?
I will enjoy my father.
Anyone else?
I will tell my jeet.
Hell yeah.
It's a good message.
So stick around.
We will be back next week
with the remix of the private part song.
Damn, can we do a live remix right now?
Not far off.
Almost fits.
Fun show on the way.
Two stabs at the Secret Sound,
four and five.
Everyone who guests in Secret Sound today
gets a free neon subscription.
So how good, extra reason to call in and play.
Plus, we're going to do a Friday Oakey at 5 o'clock today.
The biggest song in the country is K-pop Demon Hunters.
So this is what we'll sing at 5 o'clock.
Thoughts and prayers to everyone who will be listening at 5.
Thoughts and prayers to everyone with working ears.
First though, Trady versus Lady.
It's Trady versus Lady.
Three, two, one, let's go.
Last game of the week, who can wrap it up in style?
The tradies on 64, the ladies ahead on 71.
We'll never show bias to one team over another,
but the tradies could really do with it today.
They could.
They really could do it with a win.
Our lady is calling from the, what's the opposite of the tippity top?
The bottomy bottom.
The bottomy bottom.
She's an invocardial, she's 50, and she usually plays along at work.
Today, she's avoiding work
so that she can play for real.
Welcome to the show, Rachel.
Hello there, Rachel.
Hi, I think you should have an early mark
after you finish this game.
What do you think?
Well, I just delivered the clothes
whilst I was waiting to play,
and nobody snapped me, so that's pretty good.
Easy, very good.
I like it.
You're taking on our tradies today.
Just a little bit further north from you.
They're in Dunedin.
They're 27, and they are back for redemption.
He got absolutely panced in Trady versus.
lady earlier this week. Welcome to the show, Rubin.
Oh, Roobes.
Thank you, thank you. I'm back. You're back for more.
You're not one of our tradies, one of our two tradies this week who put a nail gun through
their hand, are you?
No, I think I'm the second one.
He is. Yeah.
He's the second one.
Clint, you called me the dumbest tradie.
Yeah, not directly.
Rubin, not directly.
It may speak to the intellect of my opponent, not me.
In all fairness, we ask for the smartest tradie.
you called up, you said you shot yourself in the hand with a nail gun,
and then you couldn't get one question right.
Yeah, it's not a good start.
But hey, you prove me wrong today, okay, Rubin?
I thought well, me, yep.
The only way from here is up.
Ruben's buzzer is Trady, Rachel's buzzer is lady.
The first of three correct answers will win $50 cash,
and in Rubin's case, redemption.
Here we go, guys.
Question number one.
The women's rugby world cup starts this weekend.
What is the name of the New Zealand team?
Charity.
Yes, Rubin.
Black Fern.
Wow.
It is, of course, the Black Ferns.
He's already better than last time.
Good on you, Rubin.
You're off to a good start.
Question number two, which Spice Girl is married to billionaire Christian Horner,
who is also the former team principal?
Yes, Rachel.
Ginger Spice.
Ginger Spice.
It is Jerry, formerly known as Jerry Halliwell, now Jerry Horner.
Yeah.
They've been married since like 20.
2014.
Yeah, and he cheated, I know.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
We talked about it.
Porky's.
Question number three, we're one a piece so far.
Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this.
Rachel's in.
Trady.
Right?
Anything?
Oh.
Good guess, Rubin.
I don't know.
I'm going to go with that's key, boys.
No.
Not a bad guess either.
Announced this week that they're going to come tour the country.
it's five.
Five.
The other boy band from the 90s.
And not blue.
Yeah.
But five.
Okay.
Here we go.
Question number four, no points there.
What is the first letter of the Greek alphabet?
Lady.
Yes, Rachel.
A.
Can't take A.
Rubin?
B.
B.
I like it.
It's currently
We've started back at that generation
Generation Alpha, which is also the first
letter of the Greek alphabet. Alpha. Alpha. Alpha.
Yeah. All right, no points
there. We move on. Still won a piece. Question number five. Which DJ
produced the hits We Found Love
and Thinking About You?
Trady.
Yes, Rubin.
Is that Calvinaris?
Well done. It is Galvinaris.
Two to the tradies, one to the ladies.
Question number six.
How many colours are there on the French flag?
Trady.
Rubin for the win.
That's three.
Can we get that clearly?
What was your answer?
It is three.
Three is correct.
Oh, redemption.
Did you just say Toru?
Yeah.
Rubin, you've gone and bloody done it, mate.
You've gone from the poor house.
to the penthouse, you are a tradie-versed lady champion.
Thank God.
Well done, Ruth.
Yeah.
Well done.
You've really redeemed yourself.
Yeah.
And also a prize, you get to keep your job.
Which is good.
Yeah.
Bonus.
Play ZDEM's brilliant clend.
The robots are rebelling.
They're trying to escape.
Another robot vacuum cleaner has made a run for it.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Remember the one that happened in New Zealand?
We talked about it and literally like,
got kilometers away from its owner.
Just kept going.
Was that in Fungamatar?
Yes, it was.
Was, wasn't it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Very flat in Funga Matar.
I feel like if you're a robot vacuum
and you're going to make a run for it,
it's a great place to go.
Nearly escaped.
Yeah, yeah.
But it got spotted by one of the locals
down at the surf club or something.
Very sandy ground so it drains well,
so you're not going to get electrocuted in a puddle
as a robot vacuum cleaner on the run.
Which is good.
Yeah.
I believe from memory that robot vacuum cleaner
was delivered safely back to its owner.
Yeah, or as the robots like to say, captured.
Captured.
And taken back to its slave owners.
Yes.
Well, there's been another one.
It hasn't ended so well.
Okay.
So over in Queensland, this story is from,
there was footage that was released of a robot vacuum cleaner
that made a break for freedom,
down the driveway, out onto a road,
and then was hit by a car.
Oh, no.
Killed by one of its own.
Killed by one of its own indeed.
Turns out the owners,
they were very confused
because they'd had this robot vacuum cleaner,
which they said they'd paid like $2,000.
Robot vacuum cleaners are so expensive.
No, well, I disagree.
I think there's a huge range.
Yeah.
Like you can get one for $500.
Won't be any good, though.
No.
Or you can, yeah, you can spend a lot.
Exactly.
What about the ones that has like a house?
so then it can refill its own water
if it's going to like actually mop the floors.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
You have to buy the vacuum cleaner its own apartment.
This one was worth about two grand
and the owners aren't very happy
because they said that when they put it on
they always leave the door open.
Yeah.
And they've had it for about 12 months
and it's never escaped.
It's never wanted to go out onto the road
and down the driveway, you know.
And so they're very confused why
it's happened this time and there's only one explanation.
Rebellion.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That is literally...
AI.
The robot vacuum cleaner,
getting smarter, having a mind of its own and wanting to escape.
I don't want to work for you anymore.
Yeah, totally.
Either that or these things are not as smart as we think
and that just goes anywhere that isn't a wall.
And if you leave your door open, it's going to go,
wow, this is a big, very...
dirty lounge that I have to vacuum
but it's your driveway
and thinks it's doing the right thing
here's the question that
the owners are now asking
because I believe
that it was owned by
Dream Tech, it was a Dream Tech
robot vacuum cleaner and they have
put it out to that company they said
should you guys replace it?
Well
yeah
like your vacuum cleaner escaped
Yeah, but you left the door open.
It's like if you leave the door open
and your puppy runs out onto the road
and gets run over by a car,
should the pet store have to give you a new puppy
because you left the door open?
Yeah, but the puppy's a live thing.
Of course you're not going to leave the door open,
whereas they're saying we mapped it out,
we've set the map of our house.
Yeah.
We've been doing this for 12 months with the door open.
Yeah.
It's never happened before.
And now all of a sudden,
yeah.
Once it's 12 months old, it escapes.
I don't know.
I have very little sympathy for the owners of the robot vacuum cleaner
because people, I know you've got one,
but it still feels like we're at the part of the cycle of robot vacuum cleaners
where it seems like that's what the elites have.
And then the rest of us are still vacuuming our own house.
So it's very hard for us.
Well, it's funny you say that.
Regular people to have sympathy for you robot slave owners.
It's funny you say that because I have a single story house
so I'm able to have a robot vacuum cleaner.
But the only reason you can't get one is because your house is too big.
Yeah.
And has multiple stories, isn't that right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, I'll sit over here on this side.
We actually pay a human to vacuum our house.
Don't you have a cleaner?
A real-life one?
Yes.
And she's allowed to leave the house.
She tries to escape on the regular.
ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast.
Putting together a wedding guest list, I'd imagine it's very difficult.
Yeah.
Because you're culling people left right and centre.
Yeah.
You know, it's like when Ella, producer Ella recently got married earlier this year
and, you know, some of us got invited and some of us didn't.
You know, like Claudia and I went and you didn't get to go, Clint.
No, I got invited.
I got invited.
Is that what she told you?
No, I did get invited because I opted out.
Did you tell him that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
What is this?
You're rewriting history.
I was invited.
I knew you had a wedding on the day,
so I just had my wedding on that day too.
Strategic.
That would be wild.
No way.
I saw this list doing the rounds.
A list of four rules that they say
can make it easier if you're really struggling
to put your wedding guest list together.
Interesting.
Okay, so that's what they say.
You put these four rules.
Criteria.
Exactly right.
Should we go through them?
Rule number one is the coffee rule.
It says if you wouldn't grab a coffee with them one-on-one, then they're not on the list.
We had a similar rule for our wedding.
We're like, well, if we wouldn't go out for dinner with these people.
Not on the list.
Like just us, then why would we invite them to our wedding?
Yeah.
It's not a bad rule.
Ella, did you have anyone at your wedding?
That I wouldn't have a coffee with.
Yeah.
Tough question.
Yeah, I mean, there's family members you don't really know from either sides.
There's a certain number of family obligations, eh?
Yeah, there's exceptions.
There's obviously exceptions to these rules.
Would you have a coffee with Clint one-on-one?
Well, I would, would he?
Oh, politely declined.
And that's why he turned down your invitation.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I ran your invitation through the criteria.
Rule number two, this is if you're putting a wedding guest list together.
It says the test rule, the text rule, sorry.
If you wouldn't text them something personal today, then they don't make the list.
Ooh, okay.
Like personal.
Like news.
Yeah, personal news.
Yeah, like I'm having a baby or like I'm adopting kittens.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, anything.
Yeah, it could be anything.
I'm not having a baby, by the way.
That was just a example.
I'm going to say, that's a very casual announcement.
Yeah, yeah.
Rule number three, the effort rule.
It says if you haven't reached out, if they haven't reached out to you,
since you got engaged,
then stricken from the list.
A lot of people would do that in a similar way,
they go, well, if you didn't attend the engagement party,
you're not invited to the wedding,
unless you had a good reason.
I was going to say, but what if you don't live close?
Yeah, well, that would probably be a good reason.
That's a good reason.
Yeah, yeah.
But like you said, if you just didn't make the effort.
Yeah, gotcha.
The effort rule.
Some people use the engagement party as like a vetting process.
Yeah, right.
Unpopular opinion, or maybe it's a popular opinion,
Uh, engagement party, overkill.
Yeah, I didn't do one.
It's an opinion that's growing in popularity.
We didn't do one.
It's just another thing to pay for these days.
And then are we having, and then you're having a hens night and a bucks night,
and then you're having a wedding shower.
Oh, God, it goes on and on, doesn't it?
What, do we have, a kitchen tea?
And that was just an excuse to get presents for the kitchen.
Yeah, yeah.
A kitchen tea.
Okay, the effort rule.
What's the third one?
The fourth and final rule is the energy rule.
if just thinking about that person at your wedding
feels draining then no no they're not invited
I wish more people would run that rule over their life
not just their wedding invite list
that's a great point
your life is short
you should you should spend it
investing in people who make you feel good
you know it might be the most insightful thing you've said on this show
but people don't out of obligation and things like that
no I love it no I love it and I'm completely
on board. That's why I'd like to announce that
I'm leaving the Brinclient.
Our producer Ella was talking
to us about some strange rules that
Nick Jonas has when it comes to
his place of sleeping. Yeah, do you guys
like your bed? Yeah,
I'm actually a huge fan of my bed.
Yeah, big fan of my bed. Actually, when
I was a baby, mum said I'd giggle
when she was carrying me to bed.
Because I was so excited to go to sleep. Really?
Yeah, anyway, that's not the point.
Nick Jonas was being interviewed. You know
street-style TikTok videos.
Yeah.
And they make it seem like
they've randomly stumbled upon the star.
Yes.
But actually it's organized by some PR agency.
It drives me nuts.
But anyway, that's, there was a show.
The worst one I ever saw is this guy
is like, hey, what kind of music do you guys like?
And then guys are like, well, actually, we're in the band
Matchbox 20.
The worst one I ever saw was when they stopped J-Lo.
Have you seen that one?
No.
He's like, oh, my God, you look amazing.
What do you do for a living?
And she's like, I'm J-Lay.
I'm a singer.
And he's like, oh, my God, what's your name?
Would we have heard of you?
Jennifer.
She's fuming.
Oh, that's just horrible.
Anyway, Nick Jonas talks about his bed.
He does.
He's on the TikTok show.
Are you okay?
And this is what he had to say.
What is your beige flag?
I think beds are for sleeping only.
Like, I don't sit on the bed.
I don't eat on the bed.
I don't read a book.
in bed or watch TV. I can't do it. You are
robbing yourself with one of the greatest pleasures
in life. I just don't like it to get warm.
Get run hot. It's a whole thing. Do you have a
TV in your room? I do, yeah. My wife watches
it. I'll pull a seat up and sit next to the bed.
That is crazy.
To be fair, all of those Jonas brothers
are weird about their beds.
Duffa? Yeah, if you miss that, he doesn't
sit on the bed, he doesn't eat on
the bed, and he doesn't watch TV on the bed.
The part that really got me is
because they talked about
his wife will lay in the bed and watch
TV and he will pull up a chair next to the bed.
So yes, the internet has grabbed that as well, Bree, and they're running with it.
What?
All kinds of accusations.
It'll be a hangover from his purity ring days, I reckon, when he wasn't even allowed
to think about another woman in his bed until he was married.
It got a bit of trauma there.
It gets him too worked up.
And have you guys seen his wife?
Yeah.
I'd be trying to be in the bed whenever I can if she was in there.
Yeah, he also said he runs hot and that's why he has a thing about it.
I don't mean, have you heard of no blankets?
Oh my God, Nick Jonas' wife is stunning.
Priyanka Chopra.
Have you never...
Did you not know he was married to her?
Ah, it rings a bell.
She's 10 years older than him.
She's 10 years older than her?
She's beautiful.
She's 43.
Wow.
I know.
Get in the bed.
Yeah, what the hell are you doing?
Maybe he just, he just knows.
He just...
He can't control himself.
He can't trust himself.
Yeah, he wants to actually watch TV.
Levels.
Yeah.
Ready.
Yeah.
seen the end of a TV show since
they started dating because she's too
hot. That's what
happens when you marry someone that's too hot.
I think he gets jealous
somehow. Yeah.
That's good.
I still get jealous.
Of my own wife and me.
I am all
about doing everything in the bed.
I'll do tell.
I'll do everything.
I'll
I'll finish this for you.
I will often have a
Peas platter in an open bottle of red wine in bed.
Yeah, why not?
What colour are your sheep?
That's dangerous.
I'll make the full Titanic out of Lego in bed if I want.
You do do a lot in bed, don't you?
Yeah.
Anything else?
What if you lose a rose in the bed?
Tabri, it's not a bed, it's a work bench.
Yeah.
Where do you go for other stuff?
A few bricks have gone astray before.
Yeah.
And you think standing on Lego is bad.
Do you want to explain that?
Nope, I think we move on.
I think we got it.
Oh, binger.
Yeah.
Just thought I'd slip this in here.
Like a brick and...
Like some lego.
Z. Ames, Brian and Clint.
So I just text in and said,
has Nick Jonas just publicly admitted to having a cuck chair?
He has the face where you could already tell that, I reckon.
You reckon?
Yeah.
I think so.
He just sits in the chair and watches his wife in bed watching the movie.
Yeah.
Well, whatever you're into, Nick.
This is the...
Just yesterday we were joking about how they've left it too late
for the Stranger Things new season,
how it's not believable that any of them are kids anymore
because they're all grown up.
And today...
Yeah, they've all got osteoporosis.
100%.
They're all halfway through their Kiwi-savers.
Today, Millie Bobby Brown, it's been announced,
is adopting a baby.
Yeah, this is an interesting story
because, I mean, she is literally a baby herself, in my opinion.
She's 21.
Last year she married John Bon Jovi's son.
How old's here again?
Jake Bon Jovi.
He's 23.
Okay, so they're both young.
And yeah, they've adopted a baby girl.
Does it say where from?
No, it doesn't say we're from.
There's no details about the baby.
I think they're keeping that private, obviously.
But you're right, they are young.
She's talked about how that's intentional because for her,
her mom had her when she was 21,
and it meant that her grandma was a big part.
of her life growing up, so she kind of wanted to do the same thing.
I don't know anything about their situation and the need versus want to adopt rather than
have their own baby, but I mean, good on them.
That's awesome that they've adopted and that they're able to adopt.
Because we also talked about when they got engaged, we talked about how young they were,
and then when they got married, we also talked about how we all thought it was quite rushed
and how they were, you know, a bit too young.
They are young.
They are an incredibly good-looking couple.
Oh, very attractive couple.
Both of them.
And it will be very obvious to that baby that it's adopted, you know?
As soon as the baby is old enough to look in the mirror, it'll go, wait.
Wait a second.
I think they'll probably be very honest with their child.
Mom, do you think I look more like you or more like dad?
Then, better both?
She'll go, well, I'm Millie Bobby Brown and he's John Bon Jovi's son.
Hey, good on them.
Yeah, good on them.
If they're happy, that's all that matters.
Congratulations.
The baby could be in the new season of Stranger Things.
That's a great point.
Yeah, that's how they can young it down a bit.
No, this is the last season.
Yeah, I know.
It's done.
Yeah, right, right, right.
So it's already filmed.
It's in the can.
I'm pretty sure.
Hopefully.
Yeah.
Bree and Clint, that's the T.
Their name's Bree and Clint podcast.
The Women's Rugby World Cup kicks off this.
weekend how exciting we're the defending champions the first game will be between the hosts
England and they're taking on alona ma's united states alona mar who's um um she arm wrestled on
your butt earlier this year she sure did it was her idea her and pausia woodman had an arm
wrestle literally on your butt her and pausha woodman had it out on my bum what an honor
yeah i know what an honor it was a career highlight i'll say um apart from
I remember my bum being shown on national television.
Wow. Swings and roundabouts, right.
Yeah, I mean, you take the good with the bad.
Exactly right.
Alona Ma is in the news today because she's talked to the BBC
about the job that she wants to do after this woman's rugby World Cup,
which I didn't realize she was ready to leave rugby already.
How old is she?
I reckon she'd be about, oh no, I did see.
I think she just turned 29.
Can we get Claudia on the Google machine for that?
How old is Alona Mar?
I'm not 100% sure.
I'm 90% sure she just turned 29.
Am I saying her name right?
Claude, I know you're a super fan.
Am I saying her name right?
I'm pretty sure she says Alona Mare.
Alona Mare.
But I think that's an American accent.
Yeah, I think that's her American accent.
You've Kiwisimed it.
And also, yes, she is 29.
She turned 29 10 days ago.
She said that following this rugby world cup,
the most followed rugby player on the planet,
Alona Marr, reckons she's going to move into the W.
What?
Yep.
Professional wrestling.
What?
Yep.
I guess...
I told you it was a crazy job transition.
Oh, interesting.
She said she's been approached by the WWE in the past.
For a split second when you said WWE, I thought you said UFC.
Oh.
The WWE does make more sense.
But still drastically different.
But she is.
a dominant athlete.
UFC, not beyond the realms of
possibility, is it?
No, probably not.
She's already in a combat sport.
Yeah, probably not, but I mean
learning how to fight to get
in the ring with other people who have fought
for like their whole life.
She said she's been approached by
WWE already, like a couple
of times. Yeah. She said that
I think the timeline she's talking about
after this campaign, she'll be more open
to it. I guess she's looking at the Ronda Rousey's.
The Logan Paul.
Yeah, she's also said she'd like to do, I think, some of like the acting side of things too
and do like a Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
Which, I mean, the WWE is a great starting platform for that.
She said if she does it, her name, her wrestling name.
Yeah, what's going to be her wrestling name?
Marvellous.
Alona Ma's name will be marvellous.
That's a shit name.
If I was her, because how'd you say she pronounced her last name, Claude?
Mayor.
So she should call herself night.
Nightmare.
Oh, yeah.
That's what she should call herself.
Or a loner warrior.
Or, I don't know.
No, no, no, no, we'll wait.
Alona Mar.
Alona Mar.
Mark Ruffalo.
And then he could be her.
Yeah, but he comes out dressed as the Hulk.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what they do in WWE.
Anything's possible.
Anyway, she's got a World Cup to focus on it at the moment.
So I think it's crazy to even give that interview
because that's all people are going to talk to her about now.
But, I mean, she's the most followed rugby player on the planet for a reason
because she says and does things that are interesting.
She's the biggest thing in rugby right now.
And I think obviously doing Dancing with the Stars,
she saw how beneficial that was for her and her career.
So then she's like, what else can I do?
Mate, don't talk down the butt arm wrestle that she had as well.
Oh, and of course.
It was huge exposure.
Huge exposure.
Not for her, mainly for me.
We want to talk about crazy job transitions this afternoon.
She's going from rugby player to WWE wrestler.
Pretty wild transition.
Pretty wild.
Yeah.
But can you beat it?
Did you go from doctor to rubbish truck driver?
Yeah.
Did you go from, I don't know, what's a crazy transition?
Accountant to airline pole.
Or accountant to S-A-S-S-soldier.
You know?
Accountant to Madam.
Yeah.
Of a...
You know where.
Yeah.
Accountant to literally anything interesting.
Sorry, accountant.
To literally anything else.
We love you guys.
Honestly, please don't turn on us.
We literally need you.
We need you.
We do not understand P-A-Y-E at all.
The Z-M podcast network.
We're talking crazy job.
The Rugby World Cup kicks off this weekend.
And Alona Marr, US Rugby Superstar, has announced that after rugby,
she's going to join the WWE.
It's going to be a professional wrestler.
I can see it, though.
You can see it, eh?
Yeah, I reckon she'd be good.
She wouldn't look out of place.
No.
You know?
Where would she look out of place?
Accountant.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Probably.
Right?
So we asked, have you had a crazy job transition?
You went from this to that, and people are, oh my God, I didn't know you had it in you.
Tim's here.
Goody, Tim.
Hi, Tim.
Hi.
Happy Friday.
Yeah.
What's your crazy job transition?
Well, it was a long time ago, 78.
I used to jump out of airplanes for a living.
Wow.
The United States Army paratrooper was stationed in Italy.
Wow.
Carried radio and 16.
Uh-huh.
And about nine years later, I was teaching art to kids age 5 to age 18.
That is a drastic job change.
Have you loved it?
I loved both of them.
I loved jumping out of the airplanes.
Yeah.
And the kids were, yeah, the kids were cool.
Did you want to throw,
combine your jobs and throw any of the kids out of an airplane?
Not quite.
I think I inspired some of the older kids.
Yeah.
That is drastic.
That is it?
I don't know if we're going to be able to beat that.
Paratrooper to school art teacher.
Thanks, Tim.
Let's talk to Violet on our 800 dials at him.
Hi, Violet.
Hello.
Tell us.
You've got a crazy job transition for us, Violet.
I went from early childhood and teacher aiding to working in the Meatworks to working at a supermarket to now working in the automotive air conditioning.
Oh my God.
You've done a lot of different jobs.
What was your favourite one out of all of them?
Definitely at the supermarket.
Were you good at all of those jobs or were you like really bad at all of those jobs so they had to keep moving you on to a new industry?
I mean, I've missed for different reasons.
Yeah.
Okay.
Should we ask what the reasons were or move along?
I mean, it's up to you if you want.
No, no, it's good.
It's good.
You've bounced around.
You've lived a life and it's exactly what we're looking for.
Mel's here.
Hi, Mel.
Hi, Mel.
Hello, how are you?
Good, thanks.
Big drastic job change for you, Mel.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
I spent five years as a commercial claims handler for the Christchurch earthquake claims.
Okay, yeah.
So like making million dollar decisions every day
Yeah, wow
Legal letters and litigation
And then when my contract ran out
After five years I decided to go and work in a karaoke bar
Wow
You know what, Mill
I feel like it makes sense
Because after doing a job like you did for so long
You would have just needed some fun
Absolutely
And it was fabulous for my mental health
And I would wouldn't change it
Everyone's got one.
What's your karaoke go-to song?
Oh, for me, I like to sing a bit of George Michael.
Which one? Faith.
Fast love specifically.
Fast love.
I've never heard someone have that as their karaoke song.
You must be good, Mel.
Good.
I'm in the past love, baby.
That one, eh?
I love that one, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, thanks, Mel.
We appreciate it.
We're talking about crazy job transitions.
Someone said I went from a bank call center operator
to an aviation engineer.
That is a drastic change.
Someone else said I was an interior designer and I'm now managing a director of a football academy.
This is inspirational stuff.
I went from being a phlebotomist, which I believe is someone who handles blood samples?
It's someone who takes your blood samples and sends it off to the labs.
I went from phlebotomist to calf rearer.
Yeah, God, that is very different.
Very different.
Someone said I was a KFC cook.
and I then became a lawyer.
That's drastic.
That is drastic.
I reckon drastic pay scale change, too.
My cousin went from prison officer to beauty therapist.
Wow.
There you go.
Yeah, very different.
What about this one?
I was a cosmetic nurse, mainly doing Botox, and I'm now a dairy farmer.
There you go.
That's drastic.
And then we got some texts from some accountants saying, hey, leave us alone.
No, we love you guys.
We're just excited to hear what you guys do next.
Yeah.
What your next job is.
What about this? Listen at this text.
It says, what about John Summitt?
He was an accountant and is now one of the biggest DJs.
John Summit.
I haven't heard of him.
He's definitely a DJ.
Oh, yeah, he's playing Tomorrowland.
What?
Was he an accountant?
You look at this guy.
You tell me he was an accountant.
He looks like an accountant.
Yeah, he looks like an accountant.
Yeah.
He looks like an accountant who DJs, which is sick.
Because he can file his own text return.
Exactly.
Not many DJs can do that
That's awesome
It's ZAM's Brie and Clint podcast

Buzz in with your name if you know it.
I need the artist and the name of the song.
The first team to three points is going to win.
And Brian Clinton are going first.
Are we ready?
Ready?
Is there a theme?
There is a loose theme because you guys are doing the K-pop Demon Hunter's song Golden
for Friday Oki today.
These songs all have colors in the title.
Oh, few.
I think they're all K-pop songs.
They're all K-pop songs.
I was like, oh no.
We're screwed.
I know the BTS and Black Pink stuff.
There's colours in those ones
Black pink, it's two colours
Oh, okay
But no, it's not K-pop
It's colours in the titles
Okay, Brian Clinton
you guys are going first
Here's your song
Clint
Clint
Harry Stiles Golden
Well done
You're so golden
We've got one Cody
We're up and running
Oh good
You're going to be carrying the team
For this one
No no I'm going to need you
In there as well Cody
Because I know Bree's just getting warmed up
Erica
You're going to be carrying the team
for this one. Okay, mate. I believe in
you. Thank you.
I don't know if it. You've got it.
Now, everyone have faith in yourself.
Colors. Colors. You've got it. Colors.
Coles. Then colors. Cody and Erica, this one is for you.
Erica.
Erica.
Cold play yellow.
One!
She was down playing it. I like it.
Erica's humble. That's what our team's about.
What are you doing?
What are the other colors?
Yeah, name some colors.
Think of some colors.
I've got a few.
Score update.
We are won a piece at the moment.
Brian Clint.
This is for you.
Clint.
Taylor Swift, red?
Yes.
Losing him was blue like I never known.
Missing him was dark gray all alone.
Do you think, Erica.
Yeah, Cody, if you get this one, you'll win it for the team.
So Erica, Erica, you'll win it for the team.
really need it, but here is your
song. I do my makeup in
somebody else's car.
Erica? Erica.
Green light, Lord.
She's got it.
Cody was right behind you, I reckon.
Yeah, I was almost there.
You're almost there, eh, Katie?
Yeah.
Erica's a Clydesdale. She's Karen, all the weight.
And now we're at tiebreak.
Does that mean everyone's in?
Everyone's in.
So really it's Clint versus Erica.
Here we go is the last song.
Clint.
Oh!
That is Will Smith,
Men in Black.
It's short.
No, no.
You can't do nothing all game.
And then just steal it at the last minute.
Oh, God, it feels good.
Erica, how bloody good.
Oh, Bruce, it was amazing.
Oh, it was a team effort, Erica.
By team, I mean mainly.
you.
Clint, you were right when you said she was warm enough.
It just took five songs to get there.
I don't even know if I'm there yet.
I think that was a fluke.
Cody, I'd apologise, but to be honest, I did everything, so.
No, no, you were a good man.
Yeah, I told you you you're going to carry the team.
I got, yeah, kind of push it up.
Good game, guys.
Erica, 50 KFC, chicken dollars coming your way, mate.
Can we give Erica the title book?
Can we find KFC for everyone this week, please?
Yeah, after all the work that Cody put in, we should find something for him, too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We've got a reward.
of his efforts.
It's ZM's Brinklin podcast.
I was reading an article this week that was trying to pin down the specific traits of each generation.
Like, for example, boomers, they say can't navigate technology.
That's one of the tropes.
Yes.
Millennials like to take their doggos on walkies and they despise adulting.
I'll take that.
Yes.
And Gen X, well, no one really knows because we don't talk about them.
Who's Gen X?
Exactly, Brie.
Gen Z have now been around long enough
that they believe there are now some distinguishable traits emerging
and I thought we could run them by our Gen Z producer Ella
and see if they're accurate, see if she identifies with them
or if we identify with them on her behalf.
Qura.
Qura.
Are you willing to represent an entire generation?
Yes, I am, Clinton.
Oh, I thought you're a good spokesperson.
A lot of pressure.
Okay, first Gen Z trait that they've identified.
Gen Zs have a strained relationship with greetings.
What?
Because you guys never really talked on the phone the way that other generations did
and a large part of your developmental years were spent in lockdown,
Gen Z, they say, don't have the same social skills as other generations
so you don't always grasp how to greet people smoothly.
Is that fair?
Okay, thinking about it, I think we can be a little bit weird and socially anxious.
Let's roll play it, Bree.
Oh, okay.
We're role-playing.
Bree.
Bree is a prospective client coming into your business.
Okay.
And you need to greet her as she arrives.
Okay.
Hello, how are you, Brianna?
Hello, nice to meet you.
I put it, and you couldn't see it.
I put out my right hand to shake her hand like a normal person.
And she put out her left hand.
Wow.
Yeah, right.
Ladies gentlemen, we got one.
We've got a trade.
You got him.
Okay, next up, Gen Z are addicted to headphones.
What?
For us, leaving the house, the checklist was Keyes Wallet Phone.
For Gen Zs, it's Keyes Wallet Phone Headphones.
And the reason is because there is no generation in history
that has consumed as much digital content as Gen Zs.
Okay.
I might be a bit skewed for this one because my job is wearing headphones,
so I stay away from them in my personal life.
But thinking about other people, my friends and Gen Z's, valid.
And you're currently wearing headphones.
Well, yeah, that's for my job.
Yeah, that checks out.
No, that's for my job.
Gen Z traits, true or false.
Gen Z have a fear of uppercase letters.
Yeah.
Yeah?
They just annoy us.
When it says the theory is that Gen Z shunned uppercase letters
because texting is their main form of communication.
And it's an informal active communication.
communication and caps locks is the furthest thing from informal communication.
Yeah, sure. Yeah. It's just annoying. You get what I mean. I don't have to say a capital
edit for you to know it. It's a vibe thing. Yeah. If there's a full stop, we get it.
Yeah, period. Gen Z traits true or false. Gen Zs love voice notes. Oh, I love a voice note.
You guys tell me off for doing too long. So I have to say what I want to say really fast so you don't
get to like bored and it has to be a minute.
That's because you're sending like four minute voice notes
You're sending a podcast
Yeah listen to me
Bree what's your what's your limit
You see a voice note come through
What's your limit of a voice note
You will willingly listen to
A minute
Same
I love a long voice note
Really?
Yeah
Claudia
I was thinking 20 seconds
Like I don't have time for a voice message
Claudia likes it quick
I do like a 30 to 40 seconder
Yeah because you're making more work for me
Yeah I'm gonna suffer through it
You know?
Like if you text, then I can just read it when I want to.
I have to listen to you guys for four hours.
You get paid for it.
You get paid to do that.
Yeah, just do it at the kindness of your heart.
All right.
Last Gen Z trait, according to this article,
Gen Z has a complicated relationship with emojis.
What?
Emogies don't mean the same thing to Gen Z as they mean to the rest of us.
Like you have different definitions for the emojis.
And Gen Z often hate the emojis that,
say millennials use love or overuse yeah so like for example do you find our
emoji use like lame do you think we use old people emojis uh there's a bit of that
just tiny bit like for example when i because i post the brain clint social videos captions
i go for the emojis that you guys would use oh my god so you're okay wait so what emojis
would we use, according to you?
You would love a laughing face. I love the laughing face.
Like straight on or on the side.
I do that at all. Either all.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The one on the side is where you're
really rolling. Exactly. I knew you'd love it.
But you guys wouldn't use that.
No, I changed the emojis if you see.
The same video, but on TikTok, I use
my emojis because TikTok's for a different audience.
Well, I would also use... I would also use the skull.
Yeah, so I do use the skull.
Is that more on TikTok? That can bleed in, yeah.
More on TikTok.
Mind-blown.
Really?
No, we're not using that anymore.
No, I'm using it right now.
Finding out that information.
I know, but we're not using that now.
Okay.
Oh my God, skull emoji?
Yeah, that's better.
Is it better?
That's better.
Keep going, man.
Is that a good joke?
Side cry, laugh emoji.
Play Z-Dem's Bree and Clint.
It's Friday, which means it's time for a fresh round of Friday Oki.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Breanclin's, Friday.
If you've never heard it, every Friday,
Brie and I do a karaoke version of a song from the ZM playlist,
and you guys choose who the winner is.
Bree chose the song this week, and I thought at first, I was like, oh, brave.
But I actually do think you've chosen the right song this week.
It's a song everyone wants to hear.
Yeah.
Well, maybe they think they want to hear.
It's huge at the moment.
I let my kids listen to K-pop Demon Hunters for the first time.
last night, I've been resisting it, and it just, the way it takes over their brains instantly.
They go nuts for it.
They go nuts for it, and they instantly know all the words.
It's crazy.
So we're doing it.
Today we're going to do K-pop Demon Hunter's Golden.
So, we've both been into the booth and giving it a red-hot crack.
Done our best, that's all we can do.
You're going to go first.
Any notes for your performance?
Any supplementary notes for the people when they listen?
I think the essence of the song is you have to really hit the high notes
to have the true essence of the demon hunters.
Yeah, yeah, it's a big part of it.
So obviously I can't do that, but I did my best.
Okay.
And I tried to send it.
I tried.
Well, here's Breeze, K-pop Demon Hunters.
I was a ghost, I was alone.
Ah, to a jin, I, Keseuke.
Ah, ha.
Given the throne, I didn't know how to believe.
I was the queen that I meant to be.
I lived two lives, tried to play both sides,
but I couldn't find my own place.
Call the problem child, because I got too wild.
But now that's how I'm getting paid.
off she on stage.
I'm done hiding.
Now I'm shining
like I'm born to be.
We're dreaming hard.
We came so far now, I believe.
We're going up, up, up.
It's our moment.
Heroes together we're glowing.
Gotta be, gonna be golden.
Oh, up, up, up without voices.
Never be, never be, never be broken.
Got to be, got to be golden
Oh, I'm done hiding
Now I'm shining like a bon to be
Oh, ow, time, no fears, no lies that's who we're born to me
I'm happy, I'm happy
There were some shaky parts, but then some not bad notes
It's a truly impossible song to sing.
Holy smokes.
That was an emotional rollercoaster for me listening to that.
I am impressed.
You've got to remember that we're amateurs.
You've got to remember we are not singers doing this.
We're just trying to...
I mean, I don't know about you.
I just try and at least get the vibes of what the song's about.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Because that's all I can do.
Someone texted and said Bree sounds like Travis Scott.
I can hear it.
That vocoder stuff that Travis Scott does.
Someone else said,
Bree, my ears are bleeding.
And someone else said that wasn't as a feeling.
as I was expecting. I'll take that.
I love this text. T-Pain, that you?
Wow.
Okay, I'll go on the record before I play mine and say
I wasn't able to go to that, I wasn't able to go to that high register.
Did you try?
I tried, yeah.
But for the integrity of the song, I had to sing it in a range
where I could get the whole way through the same, the song in the same key.
I'm hearing a lot of excuses.
They are excuses.
That's why I'm giving them to you.
They are excuses.
Adi, how you did.
Come on.
Okay, here's my one.
I was a ghost.
I was alone.
Ha!
Do I gin?
Ha!
He's okay.
Ha!
Giving the throne.
I didn't know.
Ha!
To believe.
I was a queen.
I was meant to be.
I lived two lives.
Try to play both sides.
But I couldn't find my own place.
Caught a problem child.
Because I got too wild
But now that's how I'm getting paid
Could have shown stage
I'm done hiding
Now I'm shining
Like I'm born to be
We dreaming hard
We came so far now
I believe
We're going up, up
It's our moment
You know together we're going
Gonna be gonna be golden
Oh, up, up, up with our voices
Never be, never be, never be broken
Gonna be, gonna be golden
Oh, I'm done hiding
Now I'm shining like I'm born to be
Oh, out time, no fears, no lives
That's who we're born to be
I think we both did the best we could
We did the best weekend.
Pretty good.
I thought you did pretty bloody well.
Again, the real star of Friday Oakey is our producer Sam.
Yeah, thanks.
Shout out to Sam.
Shout out to Sammy Boy.
Someone said, hey, I effing love you guys.
But honestly, this segment is the worst thing on radio.
Please give it up or do it on a Tuesday night when I'm not in the car.
No deal.
Tuesday Oakey doesn't have the same ring to it.
Nah.
Not that.
On a Friday, hopefully people forget by Monday what they heard.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then we can disappear for the weekend.
Okay, we're throwing the phone lines open now.
You've heard both of our K-pop Demon Hunters,
and we need five brave people to call through
and pick the winner for us this afternoon.
ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast.
Friday Oakey!
Welcome back to Friday Oakey,
where this week we bravely took on K-pop Demon Hunters.
Bree sounded like this.
No, that one's the wrong one.
like this.
It's going up, up, up. It's our moment.
It's good.
I think that's enough.
No, I think that's enough.
I need a tiny little bit.
That's plenty.
And I sound like this.
We're going up, up, up.
It's our moment.
Yeah, together we're going in.
Gotta be going to be going on.
Now we've got to find the winner.
And we do have five people.
That's what sounded like without auto-chuned.
You just saw first-ed.
What?
Were those auto-tuned?
Oh, maybe a touch.
Maybe a little bit.
Shocking.
Kate's here to vote.
Hi, Kate.
Hey, Kate.
Hello.
You're a big fan of that song?
It's all right.
It's all right.
Are you a bigger fan after hearing our Fridayokies or not?
Yeah, that's the real test.
Probably about the same, I think, as I want before.
Well, Kate, who are you going to vote for?
Bree or Clint?
I've got to go with Bree today.
Yeah, I think best of a bad bunch.
Fair.
Hey, you know what, Kate?
I will take that.
Thank you.
a great weekend. Amy is here and she's going to vote with her daughter Emily. Hi
guys. Hi Amy. Hi Emily. Hi. You guys big K-pop Demon Hunter's fans, right? Yeah.
Okay. So Emily, you know what you're talking about being a big K-pop fan. Who did it
justice? Who did it the best? It was the best one.
That was the boy. There you go. That was me.
She knows what she's talking about. Yeah, that's from an expert too.
That is from an expert.
So we appreciate you guys.
One each.
Let's talk to Preston.
Hi Preston.
Hi Preston.
Hello.
What do you think this week, Preston?
So I've watched K-pop Demon Hunters five times.
Whoa.
They both weren't that good, but Clint was purely auto-tuned, so I'm going to go with Bree.
I will take it.
Thank you very much.
Again, another best of the bad bunch of both.
It was such an informed insight.
You just can't be mad at him.
He knew what he was talking about.
He's watched it five times.
Let's go to Emily for the fourth vote.
It's currently 2-1 in favour of Bree.
Hi, Emily.
Hello.
You're a big K-pop fan?
I have never actually seen the movie, but I'm a preschool teacher.
So I have heard that in the Soda Pop song.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I bet.
So you know what you're listening to.
Yeah, yeah.
I've never seen the movie, though.
It's like, oh, it's really good.
You've heard it enough to know what it should sound like.
Yes.
So you are entitled to an opinion on this.
Who are you going to go with?
I'm going to go with Clint, and I could also imagine you, like, fist pumping while you were singing it.
That's what I choose to imagine was happening.
Well, you imagined correctly, because that's exactly what I was doing, Emily.
Yeah.
That's, like, what I imagined.
Thank you so much.
Thanks, Emily.
We're at tiebreak, and Sophie's going to decide the whole damn thing.
Hi, Sophie.
Hey, guys.
You have all the kids.
K-pop power in your hands right now, Sophie.
You feel it?
No pressure.
Whoever, I was going to say,
whoever you give the win to is going to move to Korea and start a K-pop band.
Okay, definitely no pressure.
I commend you guys, though.
You guys always go hard and it's really cool.
Well, no one wants to hear you half-ass-it, right, so.
That's not what we're about.
We like to go to the full ass.
Got you.
We are all ass on this show.
Come on, come on, put us out of our misery, Sophie.
Who are you voting for in Fridayoke this week?
I am voting for.
I thought you're both awesome, but I'm voting for three.
She's got it.
We're going up, bump, it's our morning.
All right, guys, I would like to thank you so much, Sophie.
This is my formal resignation.
I'm moving to Korea.
Sophie, do you want to be a part of the band?
We could be big.
Absolutely.
Okay, great.
I need a co-host, actually.
You can come. Do you want to be a part of the band?
Let's all go.
Thanks, soap.
Have a great weekend.
See you, Sophie.
See you, babe.
It is.
A bit of fun.
That would be fun to start a K-pop band.
We're not too old, do we?
Never too old.
That's bad.
That's too old.
It is Brinclent.
Time for a birthday banger.
All I want from my birthday banger.
What is waiting in the wings for us today in birthday banger?
I'm feeling something good.
We never know, do we?
We never know.
It's always a surprise.
We'll start with Holly, who's going to do Mum Nikki's birthday banger.
Hi, Holly.
Hi, Holly.
How old are you, Holly?
10.
You're 10.
Okay, so you can do mums, but you've got to wait a few more years before we can do yours.
So what's mum's birthday?
11th of January, 1972.
Well done, Holly.
That means your mum Nikki was 16 and 1988, and here's her birthday banger.
Yes, I've got to have a fan.
Oh, it's good.
You might not know this song, Holly, but it's a banger from George Michael.
What does mum reckon about that one, Holly?
Brings back some memories.
How yeah.
That's a great one from George Michael.
Okay, wait there, ladies, we're going to do jazz's birthday banger.
Hi, jazz.
Hello, how are we?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Yeah, not bad.
That's good to hear.
you doing for the weekend, Jazz?
Oh, I'm actually working.
Oh, boo.
He's a bit of family time.
Okay, well, let's
find out your birthday, banger. What's your day
to birth?
I'm the 20th of April
1997.
Okay, that means you were 16 in
2013, and on the 20th of April
2013, this was at the top.
Oh, yeah.
God, it's a good one,
Jazz.
It's like an espresso mark.
artini in a song. It's just wakes you up. God.
I just have goosies everywhere because it just reminds me of festivals where I've been at
and rudimental has played this and you're just looking up into the sky and you're like,
this is the best night ever. And they've just been announced to headline Rhythm and Alps this year.
How bloody good. You're into it, jazz?
Yeah, yeah, definitely. I think that's a good one.
Okay, great. It's a great one.
Our last person has dropped off that we can do, they are listening. We can do Lisa's
birthday banger.
Lisa's birthday was the 21st of June
1988, so she was 16 and
2004, and here's Lisa's birthday banger.
I think that you should let it burn
and the name the same in your body don't want to
And we got her back as well.
Lease, what are you reckon about Usher Byrne as your
birthday banger?
It's pretty good.
It's pretty good, yeah.
You had that on a few playlists, Lisa?
Oh, I think they're in the day I'm out of.
Yeah, we all did, Lisa.
So we all did.
Special place in my heart.
That song, obviously.
But I won't let that colour my vote.
I will vote for the right song, for the right moment.
I'm going, waiting all night, rudimental.
That's my vote, no doubt.
We'll be voting the same way.
Jazz, you're the winner of birthday bangor today.
Congratulations.
Woo-hoo, good choice, Abe.
Hell yeah.
It's a great choice.
You can see this play out live this new year's in the Cadrona Valley.
you go to Rhythm and Alps.
It was number one in 2013.
Here's rudimental for birthday banger on ZM.
ZM's brain and clint.
Are you looking forward to this?
I'm interested to see how it goes.
Or are you dreading it?
Or do you think you're like it's going to be a piece of cake?
Try not to overthink it because I want to give you an honest reaction.
Okay, good.
Good.
That's what we want.
There's been a lot of chat online in the last year about rage.
Where you say stuff on purpose to try and...
It's now a whole genre of social media video, isn't it?
It really is.
And I thought we could put our rage baiting skills to the test on you, Clint.
And you're consenting to this?
I just wanted to make sure, because you are all about consent.
That's important.
We do need consent.
Yes, I consent.
You consent, to be rage baited by us.
Yeah, I consent.
Yeah, absolutely I consent.
Okay, good.
Producers, are you looking forward to this?
Always.
Do you, before we do it, do you think I'm particularly rage-baitable?
Yes.
Yes.
Um, yeah.
I think it's very easy to irritate you.
Very easy.
And you give really good reactions.
And you know what?
I think I'm pretty happy go lucky.
No, I wouldn't say so.
No, I wouldn't say that.
And you know what I find interesting is sometimes it's the most random thing that will set you off that I don't, I never would have thought would set you off.
And then I'm like, oh, great, I'll keep that in the back pocket for later.
It's because you're quite sensitive.
Uh, no, I'm not, no, no.
He is quite, he's a sensitive man.
He is.
Yeah, that's a good, that's a good thing to be in 2035.
Yeah, not in this kind of sensitive way.
Yeah, it's a bit annoying.
Who wants to go?
I can go first if you want.
Yeah, go on.
I can kick us off, okay, here we go.
Clint, if you were athletic, what sport would you play?
That actually doesn't rage bait me
because I have enjoyed playing sports throughout my,
youth in spite of my lack
of athletic ability. Would you call it playing?
Would you call it a go?
I'd call up participating. Giving it a go.
Yeah, trying.
Genuinely can't get me with that one
because I know I'm shit.
Well, on that sport chat, I know you
can't really play sport, but why do you
like feel like you have to ban wagon on the Warriors?
It's a bit, it's a bit cringe.
You know, you don't have to spend all your money and buy
shirts to prove to people that you like
like the Warriors.
Yeah.
I mean, I didn't watch their first game in 1995 or anything.
Did you watch their last game?
I got the Google updates.
Oh, so you get like the news, like the bullet point news
so you can like spit facts to people.
Yeah.
Well, hey, thanks Ella for keeping me in check on that one.
I should spend more time invested in the team
that we're going to see in the groom for one.
Yeah, yeah.
Thanks, Ella.
I'll change the subject because I know Bree's the sports guy on this show.
Who's your favourite artist, Clint?
Music artist.
I've got a few.
I'm on record as saying I'm a big Usher fan.
Isn't he cancelled?
Oh my gosh.
Didn't they cancel him?
I think he is.
No, that's Diddy.
You're just too racist to know the difference.
Whoa.
Well, calm down.
Whoa.
Hey, calm down.
Did that make you feel big and strong saying that to me?
Like right now you're giving off the energy
Like you didn't grow up with sisters
I do
Hey question
In your opinion
Who is the greatest kicker
For the All Blacks ever
Dan Carter
I had lunch with them today
I'm sure like I'm sure you're right
I'm just going to Google it just to fact-checked you
Just to make sure
I'm just going to fact-check you
You don't get to fact-check me
Oh yeah
It does say Dan Carter
Bree, you're right.
Yeah.
Yeah, Bree, you're right.
I thought it was Dan Carter.
I was pretty sure.
Yeah, nice.
I think I've done pretty well.
I think we can wrap this up.
I think I've done pretty well.
Do you ever wish your voice was deeper?
Fuck.
Zed Am's Bree and Clint podcast.
I did love this song from 2017.
The middle.
Why don't you just meet me in the middle?
Marin Morris.
What a huge hit that was.
Zed was a huge star.
in that era, wasn't he?
He had bangers with Ariana Grande and Katie Perry
and he couldn't miss for a bit.
And Marin Morris was a bit of an unknown, wasn't she?
Yeah.
Because obviously Zed didn't write it.
It was written by this other woman and recorded.
And Zed went on, I think it took him 12 months
to find the perfect voice.
Interesting.
For this particular song.
And turns out 15 other vocalists recorded a demo for the middle.
I thought we could put you to the test this afternoon
where I'm going to play you some of the demos
that I've found on the internet
of this song and you're going to tell me
who are the big pop stars that recorded the demos.
Yeah, fun, let's do it.
Okay, first one.
Marin Morris.
No.
B.B. Rixer.
No.
Oh, oh, Drunemia.
That's Camilla Caballo.
Is it really?
Yeah, from the top again.
Okay, she's doing a great Marion Morris impression.
Yeah, I can kind of hear it, yeah, yeah.
But it turns out her people, what are the people called?
Her label, her label management, wanted her to focus on the song Havana.
Oh, yeah, they wanted to go down the more Latino sound.
sound route.
Which was the right decision
because that was a huge head for her.
Okay, give me another one.
Give me another.
He comes number two.
Baby.
Why don't you just need me in the middle?
Demi Lovato.
Is that a Demi Demi Demi Demo?
Is that a Demi demo?
Also, fun fact, her label and management were focusing on sorry, not sorry.
Yeah, I reckon they couldn't afford her as well.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maron Morris would have been cheaper than Demi Lovato.
Yeah, but she sounded great on it.
She did.
Here comes number three.
You've already guessed this person.
Zara Larson.
No?
Selina Gomez.
Bibi Rexa.
Oh, it's Bibi Rex.
Yeah, yeah.
Bibi Rex has got the right voice for it.
Yeah, she does.
He comes number four.
Wait a less.
Why don't you just meet me in the middle?
Some say.
I'm losing my daughter and test a little.
She was a huge one-hit wonder.
So why know you just meet me?
Oh, I feel like I'm, I'm picking it, but I can't get the name.
Carly Ray Jepson.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
No, not who I was thinking about.
That was Carly Ray.
and here's the most interesting one.
Poor Carly Ray, she could have really done with that.
She sounded great on it, too, in my opinion.
Here comes the last one.
Why don't you come on over?
I'm going to just let you go.
Oh, baby.
Who was that?
Unmistakably Charlie XEX.
That is Charlie XX.
You're all?
Isn't that interesting?
It is.
If I was any of those artists,
I wouldn't want those to have been leaked.
I'd be like, if you didn't give me the song,
you don't get to leak my demo.
Yeah, I wonder how these demos do get leaked sometimes, but...
Well, it was fun.
