Stays at 3pm.
Bree and Clint, they're all you can't change.
ZM's Bree and Clint.
I don't know about you, Bree, but there's a real buzz about the show today.
There's a real, there's just something in the air.
Mate, there's a real buzz about the Instagram post at the moment.
That hasn't been up even for 24 hours.
If you missed it, we're on a quest to get 50,000 likes
and a message from Lekka Halasema and Ross Boss said we can take two people to the NRL Grand Final.
Do you want a score update?
I'd love a score update.
We're not at 24 hours, you're right, we're at the 21 hour mark.
21 hours it's been up.
And we've just ticked over 29,000 likes on our Instagram post.
Ross's b-hole must be toyed at the moment.
So toyed.
I saw him as I came in and I said, hey, I think we're going to do it.
And he goes, oh, you are going to do it.
And I said, all we need now is like a Hallucina to come on board with the
endorsement and Ross goes, I'm going to find him and I'm going to kidnap him.
Have you seen that kid?
Good luck.
It's crazy.
Hey, cause usually your boss wants you to succeed.
But he does not want us to succeed.
No, not ours.
And the beauty of this is that someone who likes the post
will also reap the benefits.
The NRL Grand Final.
Yeah.
And we've got Bree, she can translate for us
because she's Australian.
Yeah, don't worry, I'll take you.
It's the best situation possible.
I'll take you to all the hot spots.
So go and like that post please if you have an
at Brian Clint on Instagram.
You'll see it, you'll like it, you'll be in the draw to come with us
in October where hopefully we'll get to see
the Warriors playing in another grand final.
Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully.
Honestly, if the Warriors,
I'm touching my head so I'm touching wood,
if the Warriors do make the grand final right,
and let's say they win first time ever. And we're there. And we're there. This
might be worthy of being made into a documentary. I'm just saying. Would that
finally win us a radio award? It could. That could finally be the thing that does it.
This could be it guys. For us to win a radio award, the Warriors have to win the NRL.
What a beautiful story
where two worlds combine to come together.
Two underdogs.
To triumph.
Yeah, I know.
I like it.
Go and like that post please,
we can't fail now.
We've talked too much shit about it.
We have to pull it off.

Thanks guys, good game of tradie vs lady.
Well done.
Good game, thank you.
Ladies go to 59, tradie's on 55.
Yesterday a wager was placed on the show. Fairly large wager.
We came to our boss Ross Boss and said if we get 10,000 likes on an Instagram post,
would he send us and two winners to the NRL Grand Final where, touch wood, hopefully maybe
we'd get to see the Warriors play.
Yes exactly and look, a bit of background on our boss, he's a tight ass.
He doesn't let us.
Notoriously.
You know notoriously a bit of a tight ass. He doesn't let us. Notoriously. You know, notoriously a bit of a tight ass.
Yeah, yeah.
We negotiated and we landed here.
If you can get a warrior endorsing on the radio.
Yeah.
Who scored that try?
Lekha Halasema.
Oh my god, that's my favourite player.
And you get 50,000 likes in a week, yes.
I'll see what I can do.
Oh!
We believe he made that bet
because he didn't believe that we could
do it. And he shook on it. And he shook on it. It's a done deal. Please welcome to
the show 24 hours later our boss Ross Boss. Hello Ross. Look I'm a compulsive
liar. You may be but we videoed the handshake which is legally blinding. I'm trustworthy, dyslexic, so you're paying on my weaknesses.
Just know Ross that we're speaking to you, we haven't achieved our goal.
No, we're not there yet.
We haven't done it, it's not done.
We've done the absolute bare minimum so far and we're nearly there though, Ross are you
scared?
I know but it's moving pretty freaking far.
Would you like a score update on our quest for 50,000 likes on the Instagram post?
Sure.
Currently, at quarter to five, we are at 31,000 Instagram likes.
Which leaves us about five days to get 19,000 more likes.
I recall talking about Friday 5pm or something. Sunday 5pm. I believe
it was Sunday. I was going to recall it 1.700,000. Yeah. Ross, it's all on record. The terms and
conditions were all recorded. We've got it on video. We've got it on audio. I don't know.
Is he sure that is an AI? Like, it just looks funny. I just have to... I'm trying to... The reason to get you on is to kind of prepare you for what's coming.
Yeah.
Because we genuinely believe that we're going to do this, Ross. That it's going to get done.
How much are tickets?
To the NRL Grand Final?
A lot, Ross. It's the biggest game of the year.
I think once you add up flights, accommodation, and tickets, I reckon the tickets are the
cheapest part.
Yeah, the tickets won't be very much.
The tickets won't be that much compared to the rest of it.
Just Googling now, NRL Final tickets.
Oh, there's time for 50 bucks.
Okay, this is looking better.
No, we don't want to be outside the stadium.
No, we want to be in the stadium.
Anyway, it's not done. You might be stadium adjacent. We're not trying to jinx this. We're just checking in with an update for you Ross. 31,000 likes and counting and a plea to the people listening to come to the grand final on Ross Boss' credit card. Everyone wins.
I'll put another plea out there to the audience. If you've liked it, please go back and un-like
it. Let's have a bit of cat and mouse going on here.
Ross, no one is on your team at this point. No one is on your side.
Thank you Ross.
Bye Ross.
Go and like the post. We need your help. It may not seem like a lot left, but it's still 19,000 likes that we need to get. may not seem like a lot left but it's still
19,000 likes that we need to get. Hey, fingers crossed.
ZM's Bre and Clint podcast. This show we have a group chat obviously where we talk
about everything work stuff personal stuff and this morning in the group chat
producer Ella sends through a voice note saying that she's cut her hand.
Oh, so dramatic.
Yeah, cut her hand really badly in the shower.
There's blood everywhere.
And what she did...
She sounded weak.
She did.
And she said...
In the voice note.
She said, I'm doing this because I'm trying to distract myself so I don't faint.
And all of us were really worried.
I was especially worried, and I'll be be honest I was especially worried when she said that
she had called her mother to come to her house and I was like oh it must be bad.
This is bad. She's really hurt herself. It's when she gets to work today and she
has a normal band-aid. One band-aid.
No, she got two band-aids.
Two.
But it's just a normal, regular, everyday band-aid.
Not blood soaked.
It was, this is the second one, thank you.
Wow.
I had to change that in the work bar.
Thoughts and prayers.
You laugh, but have you ever cut yourself,
shave a cut is nasty
especially if it was an accident. Yes. Big big chunk. Look I will go out on a
lemon and back you and say yes shaver cuts can be nasty. And mine was a big big
one. I don't know if I've ever had a shaver cut so nasty where I've called my
mother to say you need to get around here quick.
Not just called mum, called mum over.
Yeah she was working, she's a social worker, she had a kid.
Oh my god Ella.
She left the kid early.
To come to her 24 year old kid's rescue.
Yeah I know it's embarrassing but there was literally blood flowing down my hand.
I'm home alone just out of the shower kind of naked.
This is real life. What?
It was scary. I fainted a bit this year too and I just didn't want to do it again. I can also
seizure when I faint. Oh god, why bring down the mood? Guys, it sounds like we're belittling her.
Yeah, don't believe me. We weren't there. There is absolutely no way Ella lost enough blood out of a cut on her finger to cause herself to seizure
That's there's on no planet that your finger isn't even big enough to leak that enough
Just fainting sometimes can't she's a notorious painter. She got her eyebrows plucked
I just I can't leave you pull
Your poor mother away from her job. I know.
To come rescue you when you could have handled that yourself.
She went to the pharmacy as well.
Oh my god.
I mean she's an angel.
We need to get Ella one of those medic alert bracelets where you push the button and it
calls St John except you push the button and it calls her mum.
I would not be mad to that idea.
I'm all for, like I'm still, I'm definitely a mummy's girl, will always be a mummy's girl
and I call my mum from time to time when I'm in, you know, a situation, you know, when
I need her advice.
I don't know if I've ever called her to come put a bandaid on my finger.
When you put it like that?
No, no, no, you have, you have. When you were
seven and you stubbed your toe. When I was seven. When you put it like that is bad. You know, I'm sitting on the toilet, my hand's in the sink and she's washing the blood off.
And we're getting a running commentary in the group chat as well. Oh bless. Sorry. We want to know how old are you and what's the last thing you called your mummy for?
Yeah, what did you really need your mummy there for?
You go, I've got to call mummy.
Yeah, yeah.
Could have been serious.
Yep.
Could have been not too serious.
Could have been the most basic thing ever.
And did mum, you know, I wonder if mum in this situation
appreciates it, like is it nice to feel wanted?
I think at a certain
age to feel needed like when you've been away from home yeah like I think mums
love it because it makes them you know but Ella's been moved out for six weeks
yeah she's barely barely left the family home how much longer? Since May. Oh my god.
Guys, it's hard being in this big wide world.
Oh, $800 at M
or you can text us on 9696
how old are you
and what's the last thing you had to call your mummy for.
Yeah.
And bonus points if she had to come over to help as well.
Yeah, bonus points if she had to travel.
Daddy's brain cleanse.
When did you have to call mummy?
Yep.
Our producer this morning had a little accident
in the shower where she cut herself
and she sent us this voice note.
Guys, I cut my fingers in the shower.
I'm okay.
Try not to faint, so I'll let you know how I go.
I'm so dramatic, but I'll be at work.
I'm just, I don't know, I'm doing something
to distract myself from fainting.
I'll soldier through, guys.
She then goes on to say she sends another voice note
saying, don't worry about me, guys.
I've called mum, she's on her way over.
She left work via the chemist to pick up a box of band-aids.
She turns up at work,
she's got two normal band-aids on her fingers.
And the good news is our producer Ella has survived.
I'm okay.
We're so grateful you're still with us, Ella.
Honestly, it was scary.
Lucky your mum was there.
She's so nice.
I thought your finger fell off.
We've asked you guys, how old are you
and what's the last time you had to call your
mummy? This text came in and it said, my dad was left with my older sister as a baby and
she pooped her nappy. He didn't know what to do. So he called his mum and she came and
changed the nappy for him. He was 25 and his mum lived an hour and a half away. That is grim. Like how?
How?
You know, there's two problems in that situation.
Him.
Him.
And her for facilitating him.
She's an enabler.
Yes.
I hope she came and taught him how to change an epi
and then left.
As if.
She would have been like,
anything else you need, darling?
Do you need a sandwich, darling?
Call me any time.
It's only a three hour round trip.
Shall I make you a roast?
Natasha's here, hi Natasha.
Hi Natasha.
Hi, how are you?
We promised we won't do that voice for your story, okay, that was just for him.
How old are you?
You probably can.
What's the last thing you called your mum for, Natasha?
So it was just the summer thing and my partner had put some mints out on the bench to defrost um and I was meant to
be cooking dinner that night and I came to get the mints and then I saw that there was a fly um
laying maggots in the mints and I didn't know what to do so I called my mum. Yuck! I'd call my mum too.
My mum came around and cleaned it up for me and defrosted some
more. Oh wait! Wait, she then came around and dealt with it! Okay, no, no, that's too far
Natasha. I've got so many questions. Why was your partner defrosting uncovered mints? Why wasn't it
covered? Exactly! Why wasn't it in glazed wrap? He left the plastic on it! I know! Did he take it out of the freezer and unwrap it for you?
No, so it was some home-kill stuff
and it must have had a hole in there.
Ah, farm life.
Yeah. Yeah, okay.
That makes more sense.
Your mum. Yeah.
Your mum is too good to you.
That's too much.
She is. Yeah.
You couldn't have cleaned that up yourself, Natasha.
This person wants to be anonymous.
Hi, anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Hi. Long time no see, first time calling. wants to be anonymous. Hi anonymous. Hi anonymous.
Hi. What did you... Not Alissa, first time caller. Wait a second, wait a second.
First time caller. There she is. First time caller. First time caller of us, not to your mum, is it anonymous?
It's all about me when I was 22 and I ring my mum for everything all the time.
But in this case, it was my first time travelling from New Zealand to Sydney.
Yep. Right.
And I missed the check-in.
And I missed my return flight home.
And I rang my mum back in New Zealand and cried and told her that the people in Australia were so horrible
they wouldn't let me on the plane.
Come and pick me up.
Come and pick me up.
I can just picture you talking to border security,
well I'm going to call my mum and tell on you guys and she's not going to be very happy about this.
Mum, can you come pick me up from Australia? They're being mean to me.
They're bullies. I was literally in tears where they actually put me on the next
like the next day for free of charge. Oh good, oh it worked. Wait a second your mum must be good.
My mum's pretty good. Yeah thanks Anonymous that's perfect. Wait I want to get Anonymous's mum's
number just so I can call her in a situation. I'm 59 and I called my mum when I was having
a hypochondriac moment and I was convinced that I was dying. Needless to say she thought
I was being over dramatic in no uncertain terms. She did not rush over and showed no
empathy whatsoever. That's the opposite of Ella's mum isn't it? Yeah. It's probably what
that person needed in that moment. Do you think it's what Ella needed or did Ella need her mummy?
No, I think Ella needed some tough love.
Yeah, but what would I have done?
This is the thing.
This is the thing is that her mum wouldn't have known how bad it was, right?
No, yeah.
So all she's getting from Ella is,
it's bad mum, I'm losing heaps of blood.
But her mum knows Ella.
That's true.
So her mum would probably be like, okay. Yeah. Yeah
She's a softy. Richard's here. Hi Richard. Hi Richard. Hey Hagar. Good things. What do you call the mummy for Richard?
I had to go to a hospital appointment
And I had to ring my 81 year old mother that had come all the way from Hawke's Bay to Hamilton to drive me
I wasn't allowed to drive after it
Oh
Richard. And did she do it?
Yeah, of course she did.
God, what a good woman.
They don't have Uber in Hamilton, Richard?
Not that I'm too miserable to pay for that.
But you don't mind.
Better get Mum drive from Hawke's Bay in her 80s.
On the pension, make her pay for the fuel.
She needed the day out.
Hey, you know what Richard, you're probably right.
I reckon she low-key loved it.
Yeah, she would have loved it.
She would have, eh?
Big time, big time.
And that's what all of us children tell ourselves when we ask our parents to do these things.
Thanks Rich.
Totally.
We appreciate it.
It's great, cool.
I'm 41, I call my mum all the time to tell on my 21-year-old.
That's good.
Someone else said, I got rear-ended.
Probably shouldn't have called your mum about that.
Oh, by a bus and called my mum who lives in Australia to ask her what to do.
I'm 28 and not sure how much help my mum would have been from Australia, but I called her
anyway.
Those ones you just need an ear sometimes.
Yeah. You just need someone to tell ones you just need an ear sometimes.
Yeah.
You just need someone to tell you you're doing the right thing.
Well to be honest I kind of get that one because if you've never been in an accident you don't
really know what to do.
Your mum's like you've been rear-ended by what?
Who's Gus?
Pardon you.
That ends Brian Clint.
I don't mean to trigger anybody who's done this recently and is trying to push the memory
down but I curbed one of the wheels on my car on the weekend majorly.
Devastating.
And by majorly I mean we were pulling up to my daughter's birthday party, I wanted to
get the park closest to the curb, I turned in at a right angle into this park and I curbed
half of my rim because I was going.
I wasn't like I was reversing into it slowly
and you get the little nudge and you go, oh, I did it.
I went halfway around the rim.
You did a half rimmy.
I did a half rim job.
Jeez.
And when I tell you that it has haunted me for 48 hours,
it's hard to explain to someone
because what I've decided is there's two kinds of people.
There's people who care about curbing their rims
and there's people who don't care about curbing their rims
and they usually marry each other.
Yeah, look, my partner and I, we both care.
Okay.
We both care.
You're in a same curb relationship.
Yes, we are in the same curb relationship.
I would say I care the most.
I'm someone that if I curb the rim of my car,
it'll send me into a full mental downward spiral.
For I reckon a month.
Yeah, it's been eating me up.
And the thing is that my car, I manage, I've had it for been eating me up. And the thing is, is that my car, I managed,
I've had it for like, maybe five years,
never had curbed it before.
And then about three months ago, the dreaded day occurred.
I was in a rush and it wasn't even like I was parking,
like on the side of the road.
It was a weird situation, which I won't go into anyway,
curbed it slightly.
And when I say ruin the whole weekend.
Ruin the whole weekend.
It ruined the whole weekend.
My wife was in the passenger's seat
and she is someone who does not care about curbing wheels.
And she looked, when it happened,
but she has curbed wheels, she has.
Including the wheels on my car.
She's done yours as well.
Yeah, so I was in the family car, she's done it in my car when I did it she looked at me with the biggest smile on her face and she just went uh oh because she knows she knows well one I can't be judgmental when she does it now and two she's off the hook she She's off the hook you know and and the
floodgates have now opened I reckon next time I get in the car all four wheels
are gonna be curbed because she'll be like well we're just curbing them now
they're curbing, we might as well just curb them. Oh that would infuriate me. We'll just curb them.
I loved producer Ella when we were talking about this before the show and
she goes what's the big deal I curb my I curb my wheels all the time I curb my
wheels every day and I just looked at her and was like, I couldn't.
I just can't with you.
You're talking about like you're parking
and it kind of hits.
Oh my God.
That happens all the time.
Oh, hey Ella, hey Ella, this might come as a surprise to you.
Is it bad?
It's bad and you're not meant to do that.
Here's a good question.
It's not like touch parking where you get as close as you can and when you hear
you stop. Well I kind of do take that as an indicator. You're not meant to do that.
Do you know that she's, do you realize that she's freer than us though?
Because she doesn't care. I wish I was like that. She's unburdened by the
fear of curbing the wheels of her car.
And that's how my wife lives too.
She almost, if we get a new car, she's like,
get it out of the way early.
She got bigger things to worry about.
Is it because it's going to hurt the alignment of the car?
Car chat.
It's because it's ugly and it damages the wheels of your car.
It can damage the tires of your car too.
But structurally, no, it's not going to ruin your vehicle.
I mean if you do a real bad one it can put the alignment.
My dad once curbed his tyre and it popped because he did it so bad. He found a pointy
bit and it just cut a little hole in the tyre.
Someone just text and they said I just curbed my car listening to you talk about it, you
jinxed me.
Wow, well we're sorry about that because we know what that means.
This one I did on Sunday was so bad that when my father-in-law arrived at the birthday party,
I front footed it and I said to him, he goes, how you going?
I said, you need to know that I just curbed half the rim on the wheel and when you go
out there I know you'll look and I know you'll see it.
I just need you to know that I did it.
What colour are the other rims?
Silver. See, worse on mine. Yeah, you got the skucks black ones. Mine are powder coated black.
So it's so obvious where I've curbed it. And my friend Dan the other day,
he knows how much it annoys me. He's like, oh, I see you've finally curved one of your wheels.
And I was like, you say another word and I'll slash your tyre.
Exactly right.
It's not a joke.
It's serious.
OK, and it means something to us.
So thanks for the vent.
ZM's Bree and Clint podcast.
Show's brought to you by KFC.

Yeah.
Yeah, gotcha.
I'm not trying to be mean, he's lovely.
No, but he's a master of self-marketing, right?
He gets himself on the shows.
And like when he was friends with Justin Bieber for a bit,
it gets him in the headlines, right?
He's friends with people if they can get him somewhere
or get him something.
And he's flirty with people,
if they can get somewhere with him.
Yeah, and I'm not buying that they're in a relationship. Everyone's gone mad about
these photos, but if you know anything about Harry Jowsey, he will hold hands
with everyone because he is a flirt. He's flirty and it's not a big deal for him.
You know, that's his personality. But I mean, I'll eat my words because that...
Sia recently went through a breakup, so she's single.
Mm, and she is, for the record, she's 49,
Harry Jarzy is 28, so very on trend at the moment.
It's very on trend, the older woman, younger man,
celebrity relationship, isn't it?
About time the tables turned, I'd say.
Yeah.
Well, watch this space. About time I moved to Hollywood, say. Well watch this space.
About time I moved to Hollywood actually.
No, I'm just kidding.
Half your age plus seven.
Yeah.
That's the tea with Dean McCarthy.
The ZM Podcast Network.
I was having a buzzy conversation with a friend the other night where I said there was a particular
song that I thought there
would have been someone back in the day that would have had it as their wedding
song. Okay. But it's whether or not you can find that person. I don't think many
people would have had this song as their wedding song. It's a very left of center random song by the iconic band Creed. My sacrifice.
I was saying to my friend, if someone has had this song as their winning song, I want to meet them.
I mean, lyrically, it works.
I'm pretty sure he's singing about Jesus,
but you just re-appropriate it to be about your partner.
And it does work as a wedding song.
And when I say wedding song,
I mean, it's either the song you walk down the aisle to,
or it's your first dance song.
That to me is the wedding song.
What about, I said to you earlier and you said said no, it can't be the cake cutting song?
No, cake cutting song doesn't matter.
What about the song that the couple re-enters the wedding to after they've been away to
get their photos? What if everyone's mixing and mingling, the ceremony's done and then
the MC goes ding ding ding ding ding. Ladies and gentlemen, presenting for the first time
Mr and Mrs Bree Thomaselle.
["Bree Thomaselle"]
It's a great entry song,
and here's how I'm gonna decide
whether that's counted or not.
What was your entry song?
There we go, it's not.
Okay, that's decided.
It's either the first dance song or the song that the
bride walked down the aisle to. For the record I don't think we had, oh no I
shouldn't say it. What? I was about to say I don't think we had an entry song. What do you mean?
We probably did so. What you just walked in cold? I don't know I don't remember
that but. Fun wedding? No there would have been something. I was gonna say as if you
didn't have one but see it's not that important cuz you know
it's not as important as the aisle song or the song that you signed the
registry to no signing the registry is an important song okay what was your
song the Beatles here comes the Sun okay well. We can't have them all, okay. We have to narrow it down. It has
to be the big ones. And to me, the big ones are the aisle. I think you should be grateful
to take whatever you get with a song like this. You're throwing out a very long shot
phone topic here. We're going to swing for the stars. Will you take if you had Creed,
any Creed song as part of your wedding?
Sure.
What if you had Six Feet From The Edge?
Sure.
Yeah?
Why not?
Or Higher by Creed?
Yep.
If Creed featured prominently at your wedding,
we need to hear from you this afternoon.
Okay, deal.
Deal.
It's ZAM's Brie and Clint podcast.
We're looking for a bit of a wedding song
in the haystack at the moment.
Did you have Creed feature in your wedding?
Also, how good is this Creed song?
I showed our producers a bit of music history today.
Creed performing the Super Bowl halftime show,
the first Super Bowl halftime show to take place after 9-11. It's a real
moment in time eh? It was incredible they had everything. Oh my god. There was a choir,
there was people flying, there was one single dog. One single dog released. That's what got me. I was crying at the end of it. And maybe you mimicked that at your wedding, on your wedding day. You're like, we don't
just want Creed, we want to do the Creed halftime show at our wedding.
I was after either the Walking Down the Isle song or the first dance song. I would argue
the most important songs at the wedding. You said, no, there's other important songs.
There's so many songs.
But are they more important than those?
Nah, there's the Walking Back Down the Isle song, that's the one I thought of.
Not as important.
So after you've been married, like the exiting song.
It's pretty good, it's like a crescendo moment.
Everyone's throwing flowers and...
But is it bigger?
And then all of a sudden...
Can you take me higher?
Yeah, does it fit walking back down the aisle?
I think it does.
I feel like it fits best for the first dance song, but...
But are you willing to do it?
That's the big one.
We have Carmen on the phone.
Hi Carmen.
Hi Carmen.
Hey, how are you?
Good thanks.
Did you have Creed as one of your wedding songs?
Yes, I had Arms Wide Open with Arms Wide Open.
Oh my god!
Oh, it's a fantastic song Carmen.
It is, yeah. It's one of the best Creed songs out I think.
I think so too.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it's one of their most successful. Hit us with it.
At what point in the wedding did Creed Arms Wide Open feature?
So that was like after the ceremony, so when you're signing like the marriage certificate
and everything and the guest is still there.
Yeah, so the signing of the book.
Yes, that's right.
You've got to take it.
We'll take it. We'll take it.
And just out of curiosity Carmen, what was your Walking Down the Isle song and your first
dance song?
So, the Walking Down the Isle was from this moment by Shania Twain.
Tune.
Yeah.
Carmen.
Yeah, what a great one.
Carmen, what a great song.
And your first dance song?
Oh, that would have been
Here Without You by Three Doors Down.
Oh!
I know, I have like...
Could you get married again?
I feel like I want to come to your wedding, Carbon.
Yeah, that was 22 years ago.
Yeah.
Amazing.
What a liner.
When you heard us before
ask if anyone had creed at their wedding,
were you just like, oh my my god they are speaking to me?
Yeah yeah I did actually.
I was like yeah wow I was one of those people.
That's amazing.
It's one of the more random topics we've ever done and I...
You didn't think we'd get anyone?
Well I was open to the idea that there would be no one that quite fit a very specific criteria.
Were you open with your arms wide open?
No I was arms... I was mind wide closed.
Thanks Carmen. Thanks for calling through and proving that we could get someone.
Yep, all good. Very very good. Who else have we got? I think Michael has just called through.
G'day Michael. Hello. Tell us, what's your relation to Creed at weddings?
So my mum walked down the aisle to Creed for palms wide open.
What? Hell yeah Michael.
You got it.
You got it.
You got it.
You got it.
You got it.
Can you?
Oh man, incredible.
We found her Michael.
We found exactly what we were looking for.
Can you describe to us what your mum is like?
Lovely person
Likes a lot of that kind of music and currently all she does is run marathons
Wow, okay, did she get married in a black leather wedding dress like has she got like a rock edge to her?
No, but it was on a boat. Okay.
Right.
Were you there?
Yeah, I was 11, I was the ring bearer.
Yeah, nice.
Amazing.
And did you pick the song?
No, I definitely didn't.
No.
I love that Michael.
Thanks Michael, we appreciate the call man.
Yeah.
You've sealed the deal for us.
You literally saved this segment Michael.
Not a problem. Our last person wants segment, Michael. Not a problem.
Our last person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous.
Hi, Anonymous.
You said you've been thinking about having Creed as the first dance at your wedding.
Well, that's the kind of genre, the general thing vibe that we wanted.
Hey, Anonymous, let's talk this through because I think you're onto the right track. What are you tossing up between? Well, we haven't really gotten
that far but there's the fun situation. We are technically already married
legally but we haven't done a wedding. Okay. So you can do whatever you want.
Exactly. I mean you can go with Creed, you could go with Life House, you could go with
Nickelback, you could go with all the greats. I mean there's so many to pick from, Anonymous.
There are. If you had to pick a Creed song, would it be Arms Wide Open or would it be
My Sacrifice or Do You Know?
I was thinking about My Sacrifice. My Sacrifice.
I've got to say, I think it's the pick of the litter.
I'd love to see the dance moves that go with this.
I've pictured some dirty dancing, full left.
Lifting, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that would be for higher.
Oh yeah, true, yeah.
Hey, good luck Anonymous. Happy wedding day when it rolls around.
Thank you.
That's gotta be a good wedding.
I wanna get an invite to that wedding.
Open bar for sure.
I'll see you one.
I know, I'll see it.
Thanks Anonymous.
It's ZM's Bre and Clint podcast.
Let's play Let's Get Classical everybody.
The game where we guess pop songs in classical style, it came about that Bree and I go against
Ella because she has, or at least has had, quite a musical ear for this.
Totally, she's much better than us.
And yet I think we may have caught up.
Maybe.
Well, let's, hey, let's put all the wager on today's game. Whoever wins today's game
is the better team. Oh my god. Is this the final game then? Are you getting rid of this game? Not the final game, but when you were trying to decide is Ella still the one to beat?
I'm just going, it's a bit random that we just gang up on our producer in this segment. Like if you new to listening to this show you'd go why did Brian Clink just gang up on their one producer in this game?
It's because she's better than us. It's because in the past she has been better than us
But if she's not it doesn't make sense anymore. Oh golly. So that's alright. I
Invent a couple fun games. We can do one of my great ideas. Do you believe in yourself right now?
Yeah back yourself Ella, back yourself. I back you.
Thank you guys. I'm here.
Just trying to be cool, calm and collected.
I like how her backing herself was saying
I am here.
Don't rattle me.
I'm gonna put that dog in you Ella.
Ella, are you gonna win this week?
There she is.
Yeah, where's the dog gone? I miss those days.
Sorry, I don't want to get yelly and then I get told off.
Oh, who cares? Be yourself.
Claudia, take control of this.
I am here.
Let's do it.
Okay, let's do it.
You guys know the rules.
Buzz them with your name and tell me the artist
and the name of the song.
It is a pop song, reimagined in a classical style,
and the first team to two points will take home the win.
Is there a theme?
There is no theme.
There is never any theme.
The theme is music. The music is the friends we made home the win. Is there a theme? There is no theme. There is never any theme. The theme is music. Is there never a theme? The music is the friends we made along the way.
The theme is music with musical notes. It's your first song. Sound music? Yeah. Yeah good.
Alright here we go.
Three. That's Coldplay Paradise. Sure is. Wow.
Wow.
Sorry Ella, that one was in my pocket.
That was quick.
That was a quick one, wasn't it?
I still haven't heard it by the way.
Yeah.
Well you've done well to get it from there. I can just...
Okay very good, very good, very good.
Very good. 1.15 Bre and Clint. Here's another song.
Bre. Oh Ella.
Um, what's the name of it? Quickly. It's Tate McCray.
Three.
And it's-
It's your favourite song.
No, wait, wait, wait.
Give me a chance.
No, you don't get a chance.
One.
It's Tate McCray.
No, you're out.
Follow the rules, Brie.
You're out.
Did you think that was harsh?
I barely even said the name of the artist and you buzzed me out.
Okay.
Ella, just keep watching Tate McCray.
Sure is.
Pfft.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehehehe.
Hehehehehehehehe. Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe hehehe hehehe hehehe hehehe hehehe hehehe If you think it's fair, you have to buzz in if you know. Oh, it wasn't humming. No, no, no. But we get into a lot of semantic things,
so I get to make the final call.
I feel like you were giving Ella a chance, but whatever.
Oh well.
Who cares if she was?
She's here, sorry.
Claudia just said, oh well.
That's true.
It's decided.
Okay, we are at a decider.
Yeah, this is the time.
Are you here, Clint?
I am here.
Okay, maybe this one's for Clint.
Yeah, maybe.
And this one is for me.
Good luck.
Oh, Ella! Oh. I, maybe. Let's find out. This one is for me. Good luck. Oh, Ella!
Oh, I don't know what it's called.
Three, two, one.
Oh, buzz out.
That was really quick.
Free guess, free guess.
What's the chord?
I was too busy buzzing her out.
Yeah, no.
Do you wanna go back in and I'll start it again?
We'll all go back in?
Yeah, everyone's back in.
No, I don't know what it's called.
There's not fear.
Everyone's back in? Oh.
Bring.
That is a Ricky Martin.
Yeah, it is.
Which one?
Which one?
It's She Bangs.
Three, no.
Oh!
It's not She Bangs.
Ella, free guess.
Um, hang on.
You know the one I'm talking about.
Tequila, no.
No.
No.
Pippa Lola, go!
Pippa Lola Loca! Clint?
What is your question?
Clint?
Livin' Lovita Loca?
Yes it is.
Yes!
That's bullcrap!
That sucks!
Nah man!
Nah!
Bit of passion back in the game this week.
Yes, there's so much more fun than just passion.
Alicia?
That was having... Convictions. A tantrum. I'm so fond of this passion. Alicia. I almost said it.
I was having a tantrum.
Alicia, you correctly picked Team Bree and Clint.
You're the winner of Let's Get Classical.
You get 50k of sea chicken dollars.
Well done.
Yay.
Sorry, I'm feeding calves.
Oh, no way.
How old are they?
About a few days old. Say hi from us.
Are you in Auckland, Alicia?
No, I'm not in Auckland. I'm buying arts here.
We're on our way.
Alicia's got bigger problems.
She's like, you guys are in there doing this for a living.
I actually have to work.
I'm hand-rearing calves out here.
Well, dinner's on us, Alicia. Thanks to KFC. Well done.
Oh, thank you.
Sweet as.
Play ZM's Bree and Clint. There's a study out today that according to a recent
analysis they're saying that depending on what age you are, this is women, you
feel more anger but express less of it depending on your age. Oh you bottle it
up? So essentially well not bottle it up? So essentially, well, not bottle it up,
but maybe you can process it better.
Oh, okay.
And what is it?
The older you get, the better you can process it.
I'm not gonna say.
I'm not gonna say because, because,
I think we should do a bit of our own test this afternoon
where we've got three beautiful women
here on the and Clint Show.
Of different ages.
Of different ages.
And I think to put it to the test, you should try and anger each of us and we'll just see
how each of us handle it.
And react.
And react.
Yeah.
Sure.
I think it would be a great test and then we can reveal you know what ages handle anger the best.
Absolutely, absolutely. This feels like risky business. It feels like a...
It's a trap!
It feels like a trap to me. Can I just get everybody, you're all on camera at the moment,
can I just get you all to say I give Clint permission to try and make me angry?
I give Clint permission to try and make me angry.
I give Clint permission to try and make me angry.
I give Clint permission to try and make me angry. I don't know to try and make me angry. I give Clint permission to try and make me angry.
I don't know if you can make me angry.
Try the opposite of what you.
This one, no more after this.
Yeah, within the next five minutes.
Okay, great.
And I will.
And that's it for.
Like how you're putting it.
Caveats.
Caveats on it.
I choose to begin with Ella.
Okay.
And actually before I do this.
She's already angry.
I wanted to, you're angry already.
I'm not angry.
You are.
But I actually wanted your help on this because I feel like you're getting quite good at winding
people up.
Thank you.
So what techniques do you think I should use on...
On them.
On anybody in this.
How do you get under someone's skin?
I'm not telling you.
Actually don't worry, I don't care.
Whoa, that was clever.
Wow.
Just change your mind, I actually don't care.
The classic speak over me trick.
She's holding it. She's so calm about it.
You guys can't see this but there's actually steam coming out of her headphones.
She's holding it in. Even though she knows exactly what you're trying to do, she's still not happy.
Okay, we'll bank that one oh that was
easy okay I feel like it's a bit of a bit of a like I feel like it's unfair
with Claudia why she's an angry lesbian all the time I'm not falling for it you
can use words but they cannot hurt me you can mislabel me and I'm fine with it.
I can feel my face getting quite hot.
You're red! Darling!
For the record, Claudia is not a lesbian.
I do not identify as a lesbian.
She dates heaps of guys.
That's also not true.
But that's by choice.
I've never seen you this red. I've never seen you this red.
She's fuming. Fuming. Okay.
It's fine. I feel fine about what's happening right now.
I can move on. I hate this.
Oh, your face is actually red.
We've got what we need. We'll register it.
Put it in the vlog.
Put a pin in that.
And then with Brie, it's hard because I know that Brie is good at...
We were talking earlier about how Brie's trying to get into acting.
She's got an acting agent and so she will, she will have been practicing, because acting is about processing your emotions.
It is, it is, you're right.
And we've spent so much time together and you and I are looking to spend more time to go together to go to the NRL Grand
Final, which is the second most popular form of rugby behind rugby union. Second best.
Yeah I mean that's your opinion. Well it's not my opinion it's fact. Yeah.
Rugby union is the superior sport. Your opinion is that it's fact and that's
that's fine. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. Well there's 1.3 billion
people who watch the last Rugby World Cup and 30 million that watch the last
Rugby League World Cup. But yeah, sure, it's my opinion.
Yeah. Oh my goodness.
Fair enough.
Oh, it's terrifying how... No, I can't. I can't have to stop with her.
She's so good.
It's actually...
Were you scared of me?
I just... You were like a... It was like...
I was pretty calm.
Yeah, it was kind of like psychopath level calm.
Yeah. You know what's interesting? Because you were right when you said the older
women get, they say, are better, they feel more anger, right? They feel more anger
as you get older, but you're better at hiding it and processing it on the
inside. And I would say that was true if Claudia didn't go redder than a tomato at her own.
And I so want to scratch the surface with Claudia as well.
It's all there.
Oh, very calm.
We want to talk this afternoon about selling the prize that you won.
Winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under
and the New Zealand season of House of Drag Spanky Jackson is in the news today
because they're selling the scepter that they won on Drag Race. This is big. This
is big. Like not many people have this. No. You know it's like it's like the
World Cup of Drag. It literally is. And they're on the phone to discuss it with
us now. Hi Spanky Jackson.
Hi Spanky.
Oh, hi my two favourite people.
How are you?
Yes, we're good.
We just have to check in with you
and to quote TikTok for a second,
what the helly?
You're selling your scepter?
I know.
Look, it's one of those things where,
you know, it's of incredible importance to me personally,
but I'm creating the Jackson Effect,
which is a space, you know, a multi-use creative space
for me to inspire other people
and give local people a chance,
or smaller artists a place with no fees
that they can perform, artists, jamborees,
and all sorts of other things.
And I just want to give back to the community.
So sometimes you're going to let something that you love free to you know, do something better for the world and you know,
it's a sign of everything I overcame to get here and now hopefully I can help overcome, you know,
some of other people's barriers and do good for the world.
Oh, Spanky, I'm so relieved. I thought you were selling it to pay off a drug dealer or something.
Hey, look, that's totally on brand too, babe.
That's amazing, you know, selling something from, you know, that obviously means so much
to you to start something that is such a fantastic idea.
I just like, the last six months of like everything, I've been so grateful and so lucky to have the opportunities that I've had and
I was really struggling I was lost and I suddenly get depressed and I was really just not loving it
But then I figured out why which was that I was missing the thing that fills my cup
Which is watching other people thrive and that's what I got from working with the kids
So really what I'm doing is transferring from childcare for kids to childcare for adults.
Have like, you know, forgotten that the creative spark is there and that it's okay to be there
and live life and for the living colour and that's why I'm giving it up because you know,
it helps me.
Bigger picture.
110%.
It's pretty special though and it's pretty significant that you would sell your sceptre
which means, we know means a lot to you.
Have you considered, I mean Bree's looked into selling her bath water.
I actually have.
Do you know, do you know what like full tea Bree, you know my Christmas tree, you know
because we were on the island and everything, I actually thought about starting in Only
Trees and just like, it's just pictures of me with my bum out on Only Trees, just a magnificent coin.
I thought maybe I could sell some pine cones or something like that as well on the side.
I reckon they'd fly off the shelves. Thank you.
We're with you. We're convinced that it's a good idea. We understand what you're trying
to achieve. What we don't understand is where somebody sells a scepter from a season of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Is it going on Facebook Marketplace?
No, absolutely not. Look, the thing is it's very rare for these to come up and it is custom made.
It has some of the last like swarovski crystals of this size in it.
But the thing is that, you know, I have approached to papa and I have approached to Manu as well
Like ideally I'd love it to stay in New Zealand so that it can inspire people in small towns
That I can still dream big but I need the money. What's the SEPTA worth? Yeah, what's the going?
What's the going rate for a SEPTA? So the SEPTA is like worth probably about a thousand dollars in its costume value, like USD, so it's worth a couple of grand, but you know with
everything on top of it and its significance you know I'm trying to do
something good here so even if I was to get the money I'd be happy to donate it
back to Te Papa so that it could live on you know in the way that it's supposed
to be seen. If there's a philanthropic drag enthusiast, a millionaire listening right now, what should they do? Should they DM you on Instagram?
Yes, I'm on the Instagrams. Hello, Spanky underscore Jackson and if you're not following me,
you're only getting half the story. I'm just saying. My content is A-class.
Top notch. Absolute top notch. And the thing is, I heard along the grapevine, Spanky,
whoever is lucky enough to purchase this scepter will also get one of the pairs of your tucking panties from the show as well.
I mean look I'm happy to throw in my dirty socks and my undies at this point.
And Ambriel put some bath water in.
Yeah I'll throw in Dave.
Okay great. Look that sounds like the King's Fest dream, you know what I mean? It's a very specific buyer that market, but you know they're cashed out.
Come on guys, there's lots of them out there. I mean instead of buying your Birkin this week, maybe you could just throw me 10 grand.
Oh this week's Birkin, you want us to forego this week's Birkin.
Yeah fair enough.
I just want to say as well, Waffle has also come on board to give me paint.
So I'm really grateful for all the support
and we've had donations and tips from other people.
So everybody's behind me and I 110% believe in it.
And if I can do a little bit to bring a little bit of joy
to the South world right now, then I'm gonna do it.
Yeah, good on you.
Hey, we're so behind you.
And if anyone else wants to jump on board
and support the Jackson Effect, where can they do that?
Well, you can just like come and put it in my slot.
That would be a good start.
No, you could like, you can do it on spanky underscore Jackson
or you can follow the Jackson Effect on Instagram.
Amazing.
Spanky Jackson, thank you very much
and best of luck with everything.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it.
We wanna talk to other people this afternoon
who have sold the prize.
You know, that's Spanky Jackson selling the Scepter that they won on RuPaul's Drag Race.
But did you win something else and you're like, you know what, the money would be more useful to me right now.
Yeah, I need the money more.
This is a lovely 40 of risk that you've given me, but actually I could put it on TradeMe right now and get 30, 40, 50 thousand dollars for it.
And that's what I would rather.
Or maybe it's way smaller, maybe you won tickets to, I don't know, flights to Fiji.
And you're like, actually I could probably hock these and get the cash instead.
That is Franklin.
We just talked to Spanky Jackson, winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under, who is selling
the sceptre that they won for taking out that competition.
They're raising money to open a new foundation.
And we wanted to talk to people
about the time you sold the prize.
Instead of taking the prize, you sold it,
you cashed out, and you took the money instead.
I've told this story on the radio before,
but it is a good one.
My boss, when I used to work at a car rental company,
told me that when he was like about 20 years old,
he won one of the cars that they have you know sitting in the
shopping center oh yes you know like you walk past and you put your little
ticket in yeah he won it was a BMW I think it was a BMW 1 series okay and his
parents were like you're getting the money right you're not getting the car
but his eyes lit up he's like mum it's a brand new car. But anyway he ended up cashing it in and he got the money and
he bought this land somewhere near the Gold Coast that ended up being a very
good investment. See that's wise but in the in the moment especially for a young
man that's a hard decision to have to make. Very hard decision. We have someone else on the
phone who took the money instead of the car and they want to be anonymous.
Hi Anonymous.
Hi Anonymous.
Hello, how are you?
We're good.
And also, long time listener, First Time Caller.
What?
First Time Caller.
We love it, we do love it.
You've won all over again Anonymous.
Please don't cash us in. Anonymous tell us what sort of car it was that you won and where did you win it from?
So I won a Mini Cooper and I won it through the bank. It was one of those, you know how they say set up your savings account for a super,, it wasn't whatever account.
And I'd completely forgotten that I'd done it.
And then they run me to tell me that I had won this car.
They said, he's sitting down,
do you remember when you signed up
and did this with your account?
And I'm like, no.
And then I thought it was a hoax
because I'd just moved my mortgage to another bank.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
And then you're worried that you weren't eligible for the prize.
Yeah.
I was so ran over.
They said you've won this car.
And at first I didn't believe them
and whatever.
And then there was a big delay
in getting the car because of
COVID.
And then when
the car, then at one point they
said they couldn't get the car and
they'd pay me.
And I was thinking, great.
And then they contacted me and said, no found a car great news and I was totally up
for the money so in the end I was like put it to market and I said I wouldn't accept
you know less than x amount or 43 000 yeah 43k not bad anonymous and was insane. It was so insane. What a gift. What a gift.
I mean, it's not a great problem.
And you got a better deal on your mortgage.
I mean, you came out on top.
Total win-win, right?
We give away a lot of prizes on this station and I reckon that the person at ASB when they
found out that they were giving the car to someone who had since left that bank they would have been furious anonymous. Yeah I kinda didn't say anything.
About time we got one up on the banks anonymous. They said what account do you want us to put
the money in and you said it's this one and they said hey that's an ANZ number.
Hello, sorry gotta go. Thanks anonymous. Someone texted and they said when I was
14 I want to snowboard off you
guys and I traded it with my friend for his pet lorikeet that talked.
Oh good trade. It lasted two weeks and mum made me give it back to him but my friend
kept the snowboard. What?
Ripped off. What a, I'd be fuming over that. What an absolute,
I'd be so angry at my mum. They said they're 40 now
so that was 26 years ago and that person is clearly still not over it. Clearly not
and I wouldn't be either. Someone else said I won a hundred dollar voucher
through work to some swanky gluten-free dairy-free vegan only food place. So it
went to my sister-in-law for $80. She loved it and I
got to buy food that doesn't taste like cardboard. You charged your sister $80
for a voucher you got for free. I think that's fair. I think that's absolutely
fair because the voucher was a hundred bucks. Yeah. And she only charged $80. So
she saved 20 bucks. What do you mean?
The sisters saved 20 bucks.
The sister-in-law?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So everyone wins.
Seems a bit stingy to me.
You reckon?
You got the voucher for free.
Yeah, but then you get nothing.
Just give her the voucher.
Depends how much I like my sister-in-law.
I guess that's true as well, isn't it?
Thanks everybody.
Great calls, great texts.
Let's do a birthday banger.
Z name's Brian Clint. That's true as well, isn't it? Thanks everybody. Great calls, great texts. Let's do a birthday banger.
Z name's Brie and Clint.
Because I gotta have faith.
I gotta have faith.
Because I gotta have faith, faith, faith, faith.
I gotta have faith, faith, faith.
George Michael, Faith, the winner of birthday banger
today for Cherie from the year 1988.
That was the right choice.
Yep.
That was a banger.
Yeah, all day. It never
fails that song. Two big things coming up next. We're going to try and find a name in a haystack.
We're up to $1,550. If the random person at the random business answers with the name that we're
looking for today, $1,550. That's a lot of money. I just, not to be corny, I am losing the faith a little bit.
Are you?
No, we knew this was gonna be a long burn.
You can't bail out on us now.
We knew this was gonna take a long time.
Okay?
Yeah, but you know, at the start it was exciting.
It was the chase, you know,
and eventually when you don't get the cookies.
It's like a relationship.
Yeah.
You're into the work.
Like I love the chase, but not if the chase goes for three years. Nah we're
married to this segment now we've got three kids. We're in it for the long haul.
We've got a huge mortgage. We've got to push on through. We've got to get to
retirement. That's when we get our life back. We're still talking about this
feature. That's when we get our life back. Their name's Bree and Clint podcast.
It is a Tuesday.
And on Tuesdays we go looking for a
NAME IN A HAYSTACK!
Hardest game in radio.
Random name, random business.
If the person with that name answers the phone,
we will have found a name in a haystack.
And today, that rando on the end of the phone
will score for themselves $1,550 cash.
That's a whole lot of moolah.
And to make it even more random we get one thing, we get the name from one of our producers and the business from the other producer.
You missed it last week Ella, our closest attempt yet.
We called the Lake Taupo hole in one, looking for Charles.
And the guy said, nah, he only works in the school holidays.
You're joking.
Which was the week before.
That's so close.
You would have nearly gotten hooked by
a name in a haystack, needle.
Yep, that's the game.
That's the name of the game.
We nearly found the needle.
We nearly found the name.
Damn.
Ella, what name are we doing. We nearly found the needle. We nearly found the name. Damn.
Ella, what name are we doing this week?
I'm place.
Okay, you wanna do place?
What place are we calling?
So we're gonna head to Wellington.
It's a flower shop called Scent Floral Boutique.
Beautiful.
Lovely, and who works there, Claudia?
My vibe is that it's gonna be a woman.
Oh, how gender biased.
Fine, it's gonna be a man. Nah, it's definitely a woman. Oh, how gender biased. Fine, it's going to be a man.
Nah, it's definitely a woman.
And her name's Paula.
Paula? Paula.
Paula.
Come on, Paula.
Paula the florist.
Claudia, please connect to the call.
And if lovely Paula answers the phone today,
she will instantly win $1,550.
Good luck to all of us.
$1,550. Good luck to all of us.
Hello, St. Floris. This is Taylor.
Hi, Taylor. It's Breanne Clint from ZM. How are you? Good. How are you?
We're very well, thank you, Taylor.
We play a game on our show called Name in a Haystack,
and if your name had have been Paula you would have won over $1500.
Oh bummer!
Oh! Gutted!
Is it Taylor or Kayla?
Kayla.
Kayla.
Sorry Kayla.
Kayla the place we called last week, crazy, the name we chose did work there he just didn't
answer the phone.
Oh wow.
You don't have a Paula that works in it, you're florist do you?
No unfortunately, no Paula. Do you agree that? We do have plenty of flowers sending to Paula though.
Oh yeah. You'd agree that Paula sounds like someone who works in a florist though eh?
Yeah, yeah absolutely. Yeah. Oh gutter.
Hundreds of Paulas, there's bound to be one in a florist.
Oh well. What is, what are the best flowers to get at the moment?
Kayla?
Oh, probably orchids.
They're long lasting, but they're absolutely beautiful.
Okay, amazing.
All right, one more plug.
What was the name of the florist that we're speaking with?
What's the name of the store?
Scent Floral Boutique.
Scent Floral Boutique.
Go and see Kayla.
She knows her flowers.
Thank you and sorry we couldn't give you
free money this afternoon.
Sorry, Kayla. No worries, maybe next time. Maybe Thank you and sorry we couldn't give you free money this afternoon. Sorry Kayla.
No worries, maybe next time.
Maybe next time, yeah yeah, there you go.
Okay, thank you.
There's never gonna be a next time unfortunately,
but you know.
Are we ever gonna do this?
I don't know.
I'm starting to lose the faith.
We talked about it from the start
that this has the potential to go on for years.
Well that's what I wanted to ask, how long has it been?
Have we been doing this?
So 1500 divided by two.
Our first one was in November last year,
so it's been nine months.
God.
Oh my gosh.
I'm tired of searching for this needle.
Nah, I feel like we need to get closer.
31 times we've tried.
What can we do to reinvigorate the face?
Nothing.
We keep the process the same.
George Michael.
Because when it pays off, it is gonna be so sweet. We need to play the same. George Michael. Because when it pays off, it is going to be so sweet.
We need to play some George Michael over there.
Are you gonna have faith?
Faith to me.
Next week we'll call Good George Brewery and ask for Michael.
Can we?
Yeah. You know what I do love about this game?
Is that I want to say 99% of the people we do call,
even though we give them the bad news, are lovely.
They're lovely about it.
You know, we meet a lot of lovely people and businesses.
So that's, I mean, that is glass half full.
There you go.
Name in a haystack back on Tuesday.
The ZM Podcast Network.
Our next guest is more cross-code than Sunny Bill Williams.
She's on Bloody Everything.
Welcome to the show, Laura McGoldrick.
Hi Laura.
Thank you.
Hi, hi, Laura Bill Williams going for,
but thank you, that's not very ridiculous.
No, look, look, look.
We all know I'd win a fight if I got in a ring.
Anyway, that's neither a won't.
Laura, stop it.
You've taken down bigger men than Gellin.
Well, actually, that's actually not a lie.
Anyway, no, how are you guys?
We're good.
We've got you here as an expert in your capacity as a sports broadcaster this afternoon to
see what you think our chances are of pulling off this big heist we're doing on ZM to get
Bree and I.
It's a Hail Mary Laura is what it is.
It's our last ditch attempt to actually get a free trip to the NRL Grand Final.
Let me just firstly condemn this sort of behaviour. You should have brought your tickets pre-season because the thing is that, you know, this is our year. Wazzle day baby. Back to Warriors.
So you're telling us now, you're looking us dead in the eye and telling us
you already have your tickets to see the Warriors
in the grand final.
Well, I'll be working on it Clint.
So I've already got one.
Do you not know what Laura McGoldrick does?
She actually hosts the Warriors pre and after game show.
Yeah, but if the Warriors.
And also the after, after, after game show. Yeah, but we don Warriors. And also the after after after game show.
Yeah, but we don't talk about that on air,
do we Laura?
But if the Warriors are not going to be at the grand final,
there's no way Sky TV's sending Laura over there.
Whereas us Laura, we're in.
Or you'll go regardless.
We're going regardless.
If we get this 50,000 likes on this Instagram post,
we're going, whether we are watching Warriors versus Doggies
or Storm versus Panthers, it doesn't matter.
Look, as long as the Raiders aren't anywhere near that final,
I'll be okay.
But, that's just a personal preference.
But yeah, interesting.
Interesting call from you guys and lot power to you.
24 hours in, do you want a score update of where we're at?
I'd love a score.
Last I checked for you, because obviously you've already committed to taking me with you regardless.
Oh, totally.
Because you know, like I said, the after after after party is probably what I'm better at.
Yeah.
Sorry, did I say after party? I meant to say after game, post game, post debrief, the court session, however you want to call it.
I was about 198, what are we up to?
We're up to 50,000 that's what we want. We want 50,000.
48, 48, 28. 32. 32. 32. You said about six different numbers Laura you're about to be close on one.
It's cross code I've gone offbeat so I don't know. Are we doing my netball? I'm not sure.
What we really need out of you,
because part of it is getting 50,000 likes,
part of it's contingent on us getting access
to Lekha Halasema, the hero of Newcastle last week.
Do you have his phone number?
Do you think they'll give me his phone?
Did you see that they changed his Wikipedia
to say that Lekha Halasema now owns the Newcastle Knights?
That's funny. That's funny.
That's amazing.
That's very funny.
I don't have his phone number, but if you could ring him for me and get me to Mighty
Martin's phone number, would be lovely.
But also, no, I don't have his phone number.
I could make some calls and see what I could do though.
Yeah, it's the missing piece.
I believe we're going to get the lights.
I think if I know Halleaseema, he's been my favourite player from the start of the season.
Do you know Halasima?
Look, if I know him like I know him, which I don't,
but I do know that he will see this and he is the hero.
He's the one that comes in at the clutch.
I think he will be on board and in the dying seconds
of this, just like the Newcastle game, he will be there.
He'll call through.
Yep.
Did you, and be honest with me here, did you do a little bit of wheeze when you watched
that last bit of it?
I did a full blown wheeze Laura.
I don't think-
Puddles.
You did a full blown wheeze.
Yeah, puddles.
It was, yeah, it was one of the most ridiculous finishes of an in our rail game that I have seen in many many years
I don't think I've screamed like that at the TV
Not only has Laura liked the post for it, us, she's shared it as well. So Laura, you've
already gone above and beyond. If you can just get us Lekka Halasema's phone number,
we will stop bothering you.
Yeah, yeah. You know, let me get right on that. Let me get right on that. It is dinner
time for the kids. So that'll be good. Yeah, I'll go, I'll get on that.
She's not busy enough.
I'll get on that. I look forward to, I look forward to that grand final with you guys.
It's gonna be one hell of a knees up.
The after, after, after party, I mean after game party.
The debrief, the court debrief.
Yeah, the debrief will be the best.
Oh no, not court debrief.
Damn it, what's the court?
Yeah, the, yeah.
If you like the post, you're also in the draw
to come with us, so go and search at Breanne Clint
on Instagram, like we said, 32,000 likes so far
and counting, we're headed for 50 grand.
