Starting point is 00:00:00 Check one two, check one two. It's the Brian Clint Podcast. Hey. I realised something the other day. We didn't pack up on our Friday story where Anastasia we found out was moving her flatmate's entire flat for him. And there has been an update on it. So you guys moved him.
Starting point is 00:00:23 He went to a festival. He's working at the festival. Well, was he? Working. I don't know. He wasn't working. He didn't have a voice and he was pretty hungover. If you call Downing Six Smirnoff ices and having a rave in the front of the mosh pit working,
Starting point is 00:00:40 then he was working hard. When was the last time you went to a festival? Isn't that what people do? They get iced. I'm keen. Well, I don't think that's what ice is, but yeah, yeah. No the last time you went to a festival? Isn't that what people do? They get iced. I'm keen. Well, I don't think that's what ice is, but yeah, yeah. No, haven't you ever heard of that?
Starting point is 00:00:49 I've heard of it. It's an American thing though, isn't it? Oh, maybe that's from when I lived in America. Don't Australians call pee ice? Yeah, but I live in New Zealand now, so I don't call it that. Getting iced is where, you know, like the smirnoff ice?
Starting point is 00:01:01 Yeah, I love a smirnoff ice. They're so sickly after a couple. I love a double black. Don't you know they're even worse. Getting iced is where someone will hide a smirnoff ice
Starting point is 00:01:12 somewhere and then if you happen to see it or touch it then you have to take a knee and skull it. How long have you known about this?
Starting point is 00:01:20 Long time. How have you never iced me? Yeah. Ice me. I'm going to ice you next week when you least expect it. I'm so keen to get Ice me I'm going to ice you next week I'm so keen to get iced I'm going to ice you bad
Starting point is 00:01:28 I'm going to ice all of you No, I don't want to get iced We should put a spoon of ice in the box So whoever opens it In the box In ZM's the box Oh yeah, yeah But we can't get in there
Starting point is 00:01:41 We've got to do it We've got to find a way We can't get in the box So whoever opens it Not only do they reveal The 20 grand But they have to down A smear of ice
Starting point is 00:01:47 That is a vibe It's such a bad game If you're hungover Yeah Oh Real bad I saw one on the internet The other day
Starting point is 00:01:55 And it was a lady Bringing her newborn around To meet the parents And the family But the newborn wasn't In the What do you carry A newborn in
Starting point is 00:02:03 Bassinet Bassinet And he just opened it there's just two ices just sitting so good so good one of the best icings that i ever saw was similar to that and it was a woman and she was like getting ready to give birth and they had like a towel like a blanket over her legs and the doctor told the guy The husband to come down and help Or whatever And then she pulls an ice out from under the blanket
Starting point is 00:02:30 Got him The only thing that would make that better Is if she had been faking the entire pregnancy Like it was a nine month build up to that That is commitment And then he's like oh I'll get the baby There's no baby you moron Such a good icing
Starting point is 00:02:44 I think the idea is If you get ice It's then your turn To do an icing You do someone else And sort of carries on like that Yeah you can't ice someone Twice in a row
Starting point is 00:02:52 Yeah you can't That's horrible Yeah Has to go round and round So back to Anastasia's flat mate So you moved him Yeah He returned from the festival
Starting point is 00:03:01 With no voice Yeah Any update? He gave us a bottle of wine and some flowers There you go Yeah, what a gentleman Nice Someone definitely told him about it
Starting point is 00:03:11 Yeah, he heard it Yeah, he heard it on the radio His girlfriend heard it Yeah, his girlfriend heard it Why isn't his girlfriend pulling him up on this stuff? Well, she obviously did She said, you better get them some bloody flowers and a bottle of wine But do you think she, obviously, maybe she didn't know before she heard.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Oh, right, right, right. That's what your girlfriend is for. She's meant to go, help me. Stop being a dick. Yeah, she heard it on the radio and then must have told him. Yeah. But that's all right. Did you go through any of his shit?
Starting point is 00:03:40 Nah. Or, like, no. What kind of, what brand of undies does he wear he's got the ones um where it's like Monday Tuesday Wednesday
Starting point is 00:03:50 does he you know what he'd love the Monday song the Tuesday song the Wednesday song he's a fan he's a fan you should have just
Starting point is 00:03:57 you should have just nicked the Wednesdays just one beer just really ruin his weight he's one of those people that just it's just you know
Starting point is 00:04:04 he could be rocking a Wednesday on a Sunday. It's not really. He's a free spirit. I love people who do that. He could be moving house. He could be at a festival. You never know. It would freak me out when I love people who do it.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I've just brought up our SoundCloud link to the Friday remixes. Oh, yeah? How are they going? Good. Which song do we think has got the most listens? Monday. I'm going to say Tuesday. I'm going to say Friday.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Oh, nah. The Friday version of the Friday song. I mean, it was the worst version, but for some reason. With over 700. It's the Friday one. I knew it. Do you think it's people just streaming it thinking it's the original? Yes, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:04:39 It's piggybacking the original. It's so funny. In the middle of it, they're like, who's this woman? I swear I was driving around. This was like a fair few weeks ago the other day, and I was listening to Georgia on the day show, and then I swear I heard her accidentally play one of the versions. That's good.
Starting point is 00:04:58 That's good. And I don't think she noticed. You know what would be the ultimate mind fuck? To get it played on the edge? Well, no, that'd be a big win. But if on Friday, this Friday, we play the Monday song. But we don't mention it. We don't mention it.
Starting point is 00:05:14 That'd be a bit of fun. We just play the Monday song and people will be like, what the fuck? The punters would be angry. That would freak people out. Because the origins of the Monday song is that it's inappropriate to hear the Friday song on a Monday. So let's play the Monday song on a Friday. I love that idea. Smart guys. You know what would be even more interesting is if we put
Starting point is 00:05:31 the Monday song on Friday into the breakfast show. Yeah, the Monday song on Friday. Oh yeah, I'm ruined there Friday. And they'd be like, what the fuck? This is a Monday song! And it's a Friday! Can you imagine? That breakfast show, it's early in the morning they'd freak out. Oh, This is a Monday This is a Monday song And it's a Friday Can you imagine Yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:05:46 That breakfast show It's early in the morning They'd freak out They're already discombobulated They'd be like What is going on It's Friday It's 4am
Starting point is 00:05:53 I don't have time for this shit Yeah Let's talk about that Let's talk about that Don't commit that to tape So no one gets onto us Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:06:01 I know Vaughn Is a big podcaster So If you're listening Vaughn Vaughn We're talking about The I know Vaughan is a big podcaster. So if you're listening, Vaughan, we're talking about the Coast Breakfast. Vaughan has no time to listen to any podcast. That's true. He's got two kids and like a thousand animals. Two kids, two cows, two goats, two wives.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Oh, my God. Vaughan is Noah's ark. Vaughan is Noah. Two by two. Vaughan is Noah. He's building an ark. an Ark and he's gathering animals to put into the Ark. Born go marching two by two. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:33 He's living my dream on that lifestyle block, by the way. Yeah. I can't wait for that, when I get my lifestyle block. Yeah. I can't wait. What does he know? He grew up on a farm know He grew up on a farm He grew up on a
Starting point is 00:06:46 He grew up on a dairy farm Yeah man Well I'll pick it up Listen to Glip I mean what does Vaughn know YouTube's pretty handy Yeah YouTube's pretty good Can you imagine me out in the paddock
Starting point is 00:06:55 With my phone Just YouTubing How to cow How to drench a sheep Yeah Do you know how to drench a sheep Yeah you put them out in the rain Just turn the hose on
Starting point is 00:07:04 I've cut the balls off heaps of sheep before. Well, I won't be doing that to my sheep. Have you ever taken... You have to. I'll do it to the rams. Well, they're the... Obviously, yeah. I've passed the farm test.
Starting point is 00:07:19 You also have to dock all of the sheep's tails if you have sheep. Do you know what docking... No, wait. What did you say, Anastasia? No, I was going to say sheep. Do you know what docking... No, wait. What did you say? No, I was going to say, does he even know what docking a sheep means? Yeah. Yeah, it's where you...
Starting point is 00:07:31 Yeah. You pull up to the sheep. It's where you're sailing a sheep into port. You pull up next to the jetty and then you tie the rope on and your sheep is docked. I think that's effectively. Why do you have to dock a sheep's tail? This is good.
Starting point is 00:07:51 This is getting ready. So it doesn't get poo in it. So the flies don't hang around the tail. It gets poo in it. Because if they do poos and it gets stuck in the hair around the tail, the flies then go to that area, then they nest and lay their eggs in the bum hole of the sheep and the tail, and then it gets infected and it kills the sheep.
Starting point is 00:08:13 That's what I said. I said so it doesn't get poo in it. That's not the same answer. It is. No, it's not. It is. No, it's not. It is.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Just admit that I'm going to be a great farmer. It's not the same answer. And that I get to wear one of those hats. Was that the same answer, Anastasia? No, he screwed that up completely. I'll go back to my boat one then. What's the modern docking technique on sheep? Yeah, how do you do it?
Starting point is 00:08:35 Because we used to be a rubber band, eh? Do you guys know who Slim Dusty is? No. No. Oh, that is an absolute travesty. I know who Fat Moisty is. Is that what you call your bum hole? Let's get out of here.

Starting point is 00:13:25 All good. Youth before experience today. Brianne Clint. Really interesting story about a kid who has so many siblings, it's very hard to believe. What counts as so many siblings? Because I've got three, and let me tell you, it's a lot. Yeah, look, I think that's pretty standard.
Starting point is 00:13:45 We had a van. I wouldn't say. We had to have a van, a family van. Yeah, but that's because your dad was a carpenter. Wasn't he working at a gas station? I know, I was trying to make excuses. There's a kid called Murray Blackmore, and he's spoken out on TikTok about how he's from the largest polyamorous family in the world.
Starting point is 00:14:11 He's been raised by Mormons in a small sheltered community in Canada. And there is a lot of them. Sure. So his dad essentially had 27 wives or has 27 wives. 27 wives. 27 wives on the go. Yeah. He's only 64.
Starting point is 00:14:30 His dad, his name's Winston. And he's had no less than 150 children. Wow. The 65th of whom is Murray, the guy who's been posting about it. So he's a middle child. He's smack bang in the middle. Probably one of the biggest middle children ever. Anyway, here's a clip of Murray talking about his family.
Starting point is 00:14:55 It's literally impossible for me to find out how many cousins I have. My mom and my dad both come from polygamous families. I have an estimated 2,000 cousins from just my dad's side. You couldn't date anybody within a 400-mile radius. No. Because the chances of you being related to them are so high. So obviously that's how it happens. Like his mum from a polyamorous family, his dad also, and then they marry and then he's then had 27 wives.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Your family tree is more of a family forest. Yeah. It's quite interesting. If you want to follow this guy, it's at K-A-Y-Z-E-R-0, and he talks about the first time that he realised that having 27 mums wasn't normal. Does he consider them all his mum? Well, I think so.
Starting point is 00:15:41 I think that's how it works. Really? They kind of all, I don't know if they, they obviously don't all live in the same house, but they are one big family. So all of his siblings have the same dad, correct? Yes. So the dad is polyamorous or polygamous, but the mums are not. They are married to one person. Yes. Oh, double standard. Yeah, right. But then, I mean, that's 27 wives.
Starting point is 00:16:06 You would only get to spend probably like one night a month with your husband. Every second weekend would be an anniversary. Literally, you would have to be running such an efficient calendar. Well, this kid talks about how he remembers one year, I think there was 12 babies born in one year. Yeah, Dad's been busy. Dad's been real busy.
Starting point is 00:16:28 That's a lot of brothers and sisters. Obviously, we're not going to get that many brothers and sisters, but I want to ask people that listen. Hey, people from Gloria Vale could be listening. You never know. I wanted to ask people. No, they're not polygamists. They're not polyamorous.
Starting point is 00:16:44 They're just one wife. They're one wife. Lots of kids, one wife. Yeah, they're not polygamist. What? They're not polyamorous. Oh, they're just one wife. They're one wife. Lots of kids, one wife. Yeah, some of them have like 15 children. Do they? I'm pretty sure. All right, that's a lot of blue washing to do. That's a lot of blue washing.
Starting point is 00:16:54 A lot of nappy said. We want to ask you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, do you think you have a lot of brothers and sisters? Yeah. Do you have a lot of siblings? Yeah. Are we taking half siblings? Yeah. We're taking half siblings? Yeah, as long as you share a lot of brothers and sisters. Yeah. Do you have a lot of siblings? Yeah. Are we taking half siblings? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:07 We're taking half siblings? Yeah, as long as you share a parent. Full siblings? Yeah. How many do you have? If you think you've got a lot, call us now. 0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696. If you refer to them as brother and sister, that counts.
Starting point is 00:17:21 Let's see how many we can get. Bree and Clint. Where's the big families at? We are family. How many siblings have you got? I bet it's a nightmare at Christmas. Can you imagine? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Also heaps of fun. You'd have to do Secret Santa. You couldn't all buy for each other. If you're from a family of eight, you couldn't all buy for each other. We do Secret Santa in my family. There's three of you. Yeah, it's too hectic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we want to know, do Secret Sandra in my family. There's three of you. Yeah, it's too hectic.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we want to know, do you have a big family? Lots of big families coming on the text machine, actually. So many texts coming through. Way more than I thought. Like 1930s style number
Starting point is 00:17:55 of siblings in the families going around. Yeah, a lot of people saying they've got like seven brothers and sisters. There's someone saying that their nan was one of 18. Oh yeah, my nan was one of 13. Oh, yeah, my nan was one of 13.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Yeah, I think my pa was one of 12. Yeah. Just how it was back in the day, right? Ashley's caught up. Hi, Ashley. Hi, Ash. Hi. Now, you're not from the 1930s, are you?
Starting point is 00:18:14 You're from now. I'm from these days. Are you talking about your brothers and sisters, Ash? No, so my mum, she's the eldest of nine. Yeah, right. Yeah, that's a fair few brothers and sisters. Do you know all of your aunties and uncles? Yes. You do? Your family's close enough that you have all nine? Man, Christmas at your place must be big. And yeah, my kid's dad, he's the eldest of 13. Oh my god, that's so
Starting point is 00:18:43 many. That means at their house, all the uncles and aunties from her mum's side and then her partner's side, all like brothers and sisters. Oh, my God. My kids have aunties that are younger than them. Yeah. When you meet your partner's family for the first time, you had to introduce yourself to 12 of his siblings. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Well, you know, the best to 12 of his siblings. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you know, the best thing out of that, Ashley, is you're bound to like a couple of them. You know, you're bound to get along with a few. Yeah, you've got to get along with a few of them, right? Stevie's called up. Stevie, you're from a big family.
Starting point is 00:19:16 You've got lots of siblings. Yeah, well, I'm one of nine. Yeah, that's a lot. And I'm a twin, yeah. What sort of vehicle do your family drive? Oh, we used to drive in the most hideous bongo van. We had a bongo van. We used to tell Dad to park around the corner.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Me too. Oh, we only had four kids in our family and we had to have a bongo van. Did yours have curtains in it? Yes. Yeah, go the bongos. Stevie, being a twin, were you identical? No, no, he's a boy.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Right. And were you guys in the middle at the start or at the end? A little bit. So I've got two older siblings and then I've got five younger siblings. You're in the middle. What's the age gap
Starting point is 00:20:03 from oldest to youngest? So my youngest brother is, I think he's like similar to my son's age. Wow. That is so trippy. Twelve. And then my oldest brother's 35. Whoa, that's 22 years of having kids. And how old are you? You're right in the middle. I'm 29, yeah. The oldest brother's 35. Whoa, that's 22 years of having kids. And how old are you?
Starting point is 00:20:26 You're right in the middle. I'm 29, yeah. Okay, so you're more towards the top. So this person wants to remain anonymous. Hello, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi. This is impressive.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I've already seen the number. You deserve this. Anonymous, you're one of how many kids? 17. Your mum deserves a medal. Oh, yeah, I suppose. Or a lie down. Has she won an award? Wait, that's a good question.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Was it 17 kids all from the same woman? Yeah, so there was only one of them that doesn't have the same dad as all of us. Okay. So, yeah, so 17 from the same mum, but 18 altogether. Number, so the one that's not from the same mum, did that kid come at... Same dad. Same dad, sorry.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Did that kid come at the start or the end? The start, that was the first one. Phew, because I was worried that dad made 17 kids and then bolted. Oh, no, it it was the first one was from my mum. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Got it. Wow. Hey Anonymous, have you guys ever played Monopoly together?
Starting point is 00:21:34 Here's a question for you. Yeah. Did anyone ever teach you how to have a shower? Surely my mum and dad gave me the ins and outs But I don't have any memory of it Do you recall it? No I don't remember
Starting point is 00:21:48 I believe I don't think it's something people teach Really? I think we just kind of Well we intuitively know how to do it We just know how to do it No I had to learn how to work the mixer The shower mixer
Starting point is 00:22:00 God how old was your house? You have a shower mixer in your house Every shower has a mixer. Does it have two taps? What? No, have you got two? Oh, do you just mean the normal one tap? Yeah. Do you call that a mixer? It's called a mixer because it mixes hot and cold water. I call it the hot and cold tap.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Anyway, what if I... Someone needs to teach you about showers. I mean, I've got this far in life. Can't be too bad, but what if I told you that you might have been showering wrong for the past 38 years of your life? You mean I'm not meant to go in butt first? I like how you just breezed past the 38th joke.
Starting point is 00:22:36 There's an article out today and I found this quite alarming and it talks about different things that you should be doing and shouldn't be doing when you're showering um and they say you know when you have a shower obviously you wake up and you get ready for the day and you have a shower yeah do you have a hot or a cold shower hot shower don't tell me to have a cold shower life's too short they're saying hot showers could be sending you back to sleep nope i. I don't care. Online health and wellness website reported that coming out of a steamy shower
Starting point is 00:23:11 and stepping into cool air causes a sudden drop in body temperature, which leads to a more relaxed state. Not keen. I don't care. To combat this sleepy state, you should try and end your showers with bursts of cold water,
Starting point is 00:23:27 then hot water, then cold water again. Mate, you're the guy that's been prancing around work for about a year claiming that you should drink warm water because it's better for your body. Yeah, at least that's pleasurable. Cold showers like getting to kick up the butt. Not a cold shower, cold bursts at the end of your shower. Like I said, not keen on it. But thank you. I appreciate it. Anything else? It also says just before you step
Starting point is 00:23:49 out of the shower, whack on the freezing cold water for 30 seconds and turn it back to hot before blitzing. Oh no, that's the same thing. They said if you don't want to do that, there's a few other options. The next option is you can sweat, sweat, sweat. If you struggle to get to sleep and find you're never rested properly,
Starting point is 00:24:06 try getting a workout in before bed by exercising out the day's work. Strength training can be used to guarantee a restful night's sleep. What's that got to do with showering? I don't know. It just says if you don't want to have a cold shower, these are the other things you have to do to get a good night's sleep. Sweet. I think I'm all right.
Starting point is 00:24:22 I think I'll stick to my nice, warm morning shower. If that's all right with you. How about you just try it? How about you try it? I don't shower in the morning. Touche. Bree and Clint. We want to know what you swallowed this afternoon. A US man woke up and realised that he'd swallowed
Starting point is 00:24:40 one of his ear pods. An ear pod? Yeah, an ear pod. Not an ear bud. There was no cord. If there was a cord, he could have... You could just pull it out like a piece of spaghetti.
Starting point is 00:24:49 I got, because we're doing What Did You Swallow? So I got producer Ben to get a theme song for this segment. Yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:57 What is it? Has he got it? Or maybe... That's shallow, not swallow, isn't it? Yeah. No, it's not the same thing. Did you think this was Lady Gaga's Swallow? She would release that song.
Starting point is 00:25:16 No, this guy usually falls asleep listening to something. And when he woke up, there was only one ear pod left. And he could feel something inside his, like down there. How do you swallow an air pod? He could have done it in his sleep thinking that it was something else or he could have just rolled over,
Starting point is 00:25:33 gone onto his pillow and then gone and sucked it up or something like that. I don't know, but he went to the doctor. Seems dodgy to me, eh? It's real.
Starting point is 00:25:41 He went to the doctor. Seems real sus. The doctor didn't believe him at first, but he said, please, I'm in a lot of pain. I can't swallow properly. They did an x-ray, and it was lodged halfway down his esophagus. They had to sedate him and get it out using a tube and lasso. Yuck.
Starting point is 00:25:59 He took the earpod home after swallowing it, and guess what? Still works. Oh, but would you want to use it? After it's been inside you. Yeah, maybe not. Well, earpods are expensive, man. It seems real suspect to me, eh? Really?
Starting point is 00:26:13 I reckon he's done something stupid, and he's been like, I wonder if I swallowed this earpod, and then I play music. I wonder if I could hear it in my stomach. What a dumb thing to do, eh? What a dumb idea. It's like when people roll into the ER ward and they're like, oh, I slipped and fell on this item and it went up my behind. Come on.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Who would do that? Who's believing that? I definitely, just so you know, I definitely didn't. You went to the ER one time. In anticipation of this break, I definitely didn't swallow an AirPod. Okay, I did. Okay, before this break, I definitely didn't swallow an ear pod. Okay, I did. Okay, before this break, I swallowed an ear pod
Starting point is 00:26:47 so we could test it out to see if it still works while it's inside you. Currently, the ear pod is just right about here, just in the centre of my rib cage. I can feel it. And we're going to find out if it works. This is really exciting. You're so full of Ben.
Starting point is 00:27:00 No, I am. I am. Ben, Ben's got the, I don't have an iPhone. Look at producer Ben. He doesn't even want to be here for this. Ben, have you got the iPhone I don't have an iPhone. Look at producer Ben, he doesn't even want to be here for this. Ben, have you got the iPhone? Yeah, I've got it.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Yeah, okay, cool. When you're ready, can you just hit play on, hit play on the song for me? I'll just move the microphone just down to my stomach and... Hear it?
Starting point is 00:27:22 Can you hear it? Can you hear it? I'll hear it? Can you hear it? I'll put my microphone back. It's still working. That is impressive. I'm not an Apple guy, but that is probably enough. That's seriously impressive. Good song choice, by the way, Ben. Great song. If I'm not mistaken, guy but that is probably that's seriously impressive good song choice
Starting point is 00:27:45 by the way Ben great song if I'm not mistaken that was Sandstorm to be honest I think I think it just sounds like you got a lot of farts
Starting point is 00:27:53 in your stomach you want to know this afternoon it might not have been an air pod it might have been an air pod what did you swallow
Starting point is 00:28:01 what went in ya that really shouldn't have been in ya went down the old throat hole And into the old food cave 0800 dial ZM Or you can text your thing in to 9696 And let us know
Starting point is 00:28:14 What did you swallow? Accidentally or on purpose? Brie and Clint The man has made the news Because in his sleep He swallowed one of his ear pods Brie doesn't believe that it was an accident. Is that what you're saying?
Starting point is 00:28:26 You don't believe it was an accident? Yeah, he put it up his bum. You think it travelled up? Yep. I reckon that's what he did. And then he goes, oh, I slept in my sleep. Well, it was in his esophagus. So if he put it in his bum, he needed to be doing a handstand at the time for it to travel up.
Starting point is 00:28:39 I mean, story checks out to me. True, stranger things, eh? Yeah. And we're not here to kink shame you if that's what you're into. Hey, that's what you're into, but just, you know, don't be ashamed. Just don't expect me to pay for ACC if you're sticking AirPods up your bum. Just tell the truth. Sticking AirPods up your bum should be exempt from ACC.
Starting point is 00:28:57 You should have to take that one on the chin. Just AirPods or everything? Just AirPods. Okay. I'm just asking for a friend. Just AirPods. It's your bottom. We want to know this afternoon, what did you swallow?
Starting point is 00:29:09 Orally is what we want to know. Weasley's caught up. Hi, Weasley. Hi, Wes. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. What did you swallow, Wes? When I was a kid, I swallowed one of those really big 20-cent piece coins.
Starting point is 00:29:21 And I still don't know if it's come out yet. Really? Have you had an x-ray? No, I haven't really had any broken bones to go do it. No, you don't need a broken bone. You need to get an x-ray for the coin man. You're a human coin slot.
Starting point is 00:29:35 I was a kid. I was too scared to tell my mum because I stole the 20 cent coin. Good hiding spot Wes. It was in my mouth. You know the scariest part is that money occurs interest so that could be turned cent coin. Good hiding spot Wes. It was in my mouth. You know the scariest part is that money occurs interest so that could be turned into
Starting point is 00:29:50 quite a lot of money in your stomach. Yeah true. I might have to start something too you know. Yeah I think it's a bit late man but yeah you're like a human parking meter. Oh my god. Adam's called up. G'day Adam. Hi Adam. Hey how's it going?
Starting point is 00:30:05 What'd you swallow, man? When I was about eight years old, I swallowed a moth playing in a playground. That makes me feel so ill, Adam. Anything happen? Yeah. Did the moth die? The moth got lodged in my throat. It was pretty big.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Really? And, yeah, my brother had to do the Heimlich manoeuvre on me. You think about all the dusty stuff that comes off a moth, and that was in you, Adam. Was it? Could you? Yeah. This might be too much for people, but could you feel it?
Starting point is 00:30:33 You couldn't still feel it moving around down there for a bit, could you? I was too freaked out to remember. You're too busy choking. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much. Are you going to moth-phobia now, or all good? Yeah. Yeah, no, I hate moths. Yeah. Fair enough. Yeah, fair enough. I mean, is there many you going to moth phobia now or all good? Yeah, I hate moths
Starting point is 00:30:45 Fair enough I mean, is there many people that like moths? I feel like they're a demon insect I'm not a fan I'm on the fence, I don't care one way or the other If you met someone who was passionately into moths though, that's a red flag So you don't mind a moth? No, I don't care either way
Starting point is 00:31:03 Okay Like I don't hate them, I don't love them But if you met someone and they were like, I love moths It's weird I'm a moth? No, I don't care either way. Okay. Like, I don't hate them, I don't love them. But if you met someone and they were like, I love moths. It's weird. I'm a moth guy. Nick's here.
Starting point is 00:31:13 G'day, Nick. Hi, Nick. Hey, how are you? All men. I was going to say, notice how it's all men. All men. Hmm. Suspicious.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Nick, listen to you, Nick. What did you swallow, Nick? Well, it wasn't me. It was actually my missus. Right. Careful you, Nick. What did you swallow, Nick? Well, it wasn't me. It was actually my missus. Right. Careful here, Nick. Careful. Careful.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Wait, I'm going to put Nick on hold. Do we trust him to finish his story? Do you trust him to finish? I don't trust you. I haven't said anything. It was Nick. Nick, we're giving you a chance. Your finger is hovering over the button.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Tell us the story. What happened? It's probably not suitable for radio, but... Oh, actually, no, I'm taking it back. I'm not saying it on air. Yeah, good. Fair enough. Good choice, Nick.
Starting point is 00:31:59 Good choice. Did you just back out? Good choice, Nick. Well done, mate. Good job, Nick. Proud of you. Very good job. I want to talk about this article that I read where it's talking about
Starting point is 00:32:13 what's a work perk these days and what's just standard practice. Sure. Or what should be just standard practice. No. Right. What is standard practice versus what is considered a work perk. Okay. Right. So this article is talking about is considered a work – Oh, okay. Right.
Starting point is 00:32:25 So this article is talking about how times have changed in the workplace. Yes. And they surveyed a bunch of people and they got them to pretty much mark what they think is pretty much a standard practice in a workplace and what they think is a perk. So something they get a – because their work is special or something. Yeah. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:32:44 So I'm going to ask you guys, producers, if you want to put your mics on, what do you guys think? Do you think most people said having mental health support at work was a genuine perk or a standard
Starting point is 00:33:00 practice? Oh. Oh, that's a good question. So I think it should be standard practice. Yeah. But I think, I think it should be standard practice, but I think I don't think we're there yet and I think if you've got it at your work, you would see it as a perk. You'd be like, this is something nice, extra that my work offers. I would agree with that. That's what, yeah. Yeah. Nope, it's
Starting point is 00:33:16 standard practice these days. And more so than a genuine perk. Yeah, so it is standard practice. Standard practice. And do people view it as a perk? No, it's viewed as a standard practice now. Yeah, right. Okay, good. Enough people have it is standard practice. Standard practice. And do people view it as a perk? No, it's viewed as a standard practice now. Okay, good. Enough people have it. Good, good, good, good.
Starting point is 00:33:30 What do you guys think about Friday drinks? Is that standard practice or is that genuine work perk? It's a work perk. It's not your work's job to give you alcohol. It's nice when they do, but it's not their job to. No, it's a genuine perk. People think that is a pretty good perk as well. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:33:50 If you get Friday drinks. What do you guys think about a day off for your birthday? Is that a genuine work perk or a standard practice? Work perk. Definitely work perk. Work perk. Yep, genuine work perk, that one. Do we get a day off for our birthday?
Starting point is 00:34:06 We don't, eh? No. No. I can ask. Well, my birthday is already on the holidays. Oh, you get yours off. Oh, so you get a day off. No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Lucky Brie. I don't get a day off. So your birthday's in the Christmas holidays. I've already... Why does Brie get a day off and we don't? Yeah. I eat a big fat one. What about a car park?
Starting point is 00:34:25 Perk. That's absolutely a perk. Perk. Especially if you live in Auckland, that's a massive work perk. Standard practice. No. They're saying most, this is what I mean, most people are saying they get that and it's a standard part of their job now.
Starting point is 00:34:39 And Stasia doesn't get a park. There's a bus park. She doesn't get a car. Well, she obviously didn't take this survey, did she? What about flexible working hours? Ooh. Is that a work perk? These days, post-COVID,
Starting point is 00:34:52 standard practice. Probably doesn't work quite well for this whole radio setup. If you guys rocked in. Yeah, we couldn't really choose our own hours, could we? Can we do the show 10-2-2 today, guys? Keen. Yeah, keen. Standard practice, I think.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Perk. I'm going to say that's a perk. Being able to choose your hours and be flexible about it, that's a work perk. Standard practice these days, people are saying. Oh, okay. Let's finish on this one. What about extended parental leave? Is that a genuine perk or standard practice to people saying? What do you mean extended parental leave? Extended parental leave. Is that a genuine perk or standard practice to people saying?
Starting point is 00:35:25 What do you mean extended parental leave? Extended parental leave. So like when people get longer, a longer amount of time off. Past what the government's. Yeah. Right. Possibly standard practice. If it's longer than the 28 weeks that the government gives you,
Starting point is 00:35:39 it's probably a perk in your workplace. Standard practice, people are saying. Really? Yeah. Yeah, you want some time off. Time to have a kid. a perk in your workplace. Standard practice, people are saying. Really? Yeah. You want some time off, time to have a kid. Also, free meals at work was on this list as a genuine perk. That would be a dream.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Yeah, great. Wouldn't that be good? Can you imagine a cafeteria here that was free? We don't work at Google. Free and Clint. Google downtime. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually...
Starting point is 00:36:13 Who is the fastest Googler in all of New Zealand? Well, that's what we endeavour to find out on this segment, Google Down. Who can Google the fastest? Will you go head-to-head with everyone here in the studio? Today you go head-to-head with everyone here in the studio? Today, going head-to-head with everyone here in the studio is you, Brie. Hi. G'day, Brie. Hi. Great name.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Thank you. Turn that radio down for us, Brie. Go on, do that. That's good. Good, good, good, good. Here's the rules. Here's the rules. Usually, I would be reading out the questions and you guys would be all going head to head. Oh, no. What's happening?
Starting point is 00:36:48 In the Googling process. But I don't know if you guys recall this, but last week I did state that I would love to put my hat in the ring at some point. That's right. And Anastasia said she was going to run the game. No, Producer Ben. Oh.
Starting point is 00:37:03 How can we take the best player out of the game? I would never. Producer Ben put his hand up and said, I'll run the game if you want to play. Bree said, let me run it, Anastasia. I can do it. Quote. Okay, okay. So Anastasia, today you're taking on me and two
Starting point is 00:37:19 Bree's. Oh, we're double Bree. I like that. Anyway, Producer Ben will read out the question we need to Google. All you have to do is yell out the most common thing that comes up for that question on Google. If you yell out the wrong answer, you'll be out of that question. If you yell out the right answer, you get a point. First to three points wins. Just checking.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Did Ben write these questions? Yes, I wrote the questions. Yeah, of course I did write the questions. All right, you good with that, Bree? What are we Googling on today, Bree? My phone, my iPhone. Perfect. We're all on our phones.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Let's do it, Ben. Okay, question number one. This is weird. Talking about iPhones. What date was the first iPhone released? We're all Googling. Here we go. Oh, 29th of June, 2007.
Starting point is 00:38:02 She's got it. Yes. That's a point to Bree. The first point she's ever got in the game. This can't happen. Literally. Whoa, that was rapid. I think I got too excited then.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Okay. My heart is pounding. Now I know how you guys feel. Are you ready for question number two? I'm ready. We're ready. What is the smallest country in the world? We're all going.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Here we go. Vatican City. You know what? I'm going to give it to Bree the caller. Yes. We're two points, Bree. We've got two points. I agree.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Bree and I are one person. That's actually me on the phone. Okay. Two to Bree, nothing to anyone else. Okay. Here we go, your third question If I flew from Auckland to Dubai How long would the flight be? Oh, it's all silent
Starting point is 00:38:54 17 hours, 10 minutes What did Bree the caller say? 17 hours, 10 minutes No, I said that first Everybody said that I've got 19 hours, 15 minutes. Oh. Okay, no one gets a point there.
Starting point is 00:39:08 So no one gets a point. Did I not say I said 19 hours? Did you? Did you? Did you? Oh, you get it then. I mean, I can't go back on the audio because I'm hosting the game. It's a hard rock.
Starting point is 00:39:17 We have to take you where it broke. We're going to have to. The score is two to Bree, one to Bree, none to Clint and Anastasia. Okay, here we go. Superstar. Okay, here we go. Okay, here we go. Another question. How many suckers does an octopus have?
Starting point is 00:39:32 How many suckers? Eight. No, that's less. 180. She's got it. Whoa! She's got it. I feel like I'm living in a weird alternate universe.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Well, Bree, you won. Bree won. But it wasn't you, Bree. It was you, Bree. No, thank you. Thank weird alternate universe. Well, Brie, you won. Brie won. But it wasn't you, Brie. It was you, Brie. No, thank you. Thank you so much. Well done, Brie. Brie, we've got 50 KFC chicken dollars for you. Go me.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Oh, that's awesome. Thank you so much. Anastasia, not only did you lose, you got zero points. We'll be taking the rest of the week off. God, playing's too stressful. So hectic. Well done, Brie. Thank you so much. She doesn't mean that at all. It's so hectic. Well done, Bree. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:40:07 She doesn't mean that at all. Thanks, Anastasia. I think she means the other Bree. Oh, right. Bree and Clint. Clint, there was something that I put out into the universe last week because I wanted to give back to the people that listened to this show. That's you. You're a giver.
Starting point is 00:40:19 I am a giver. And I thought, what is the worst possible thing in life, like life admin job, that I could do for people to help people out? Take care of it for them. And I thought, what is the worst possible thing in life, like life admin job, that I could do for people to help people out? Take care of it for them. Yeah. What is it? Cancelling a gym membership that you don't use anymore or you just haven't been and it's taking up all this money
Starting point is 00:40:38 and you keep telling yourself you're going to go. Oh, but I might go. I should go. Maybe I'll start again next month. Mate, I've had gym memberships that went for years where I didn't use them and I wish I had someone to call up and cancel it for me. So I put it out there on social media
Starting point is 00:40:51 and we had someone return a message saying they'd like us to help them out. Casey, you want Bree to cancel your gym membership for you? Yes, please. Casey, I love this. I'm so glad you've come to us to help you out in this. Obviously, you know, you need support in this journey.
Starting point is 00:41:08 How long have you been a member there? 2012. Okay, since 2012. How long haven't you been to the gym for? 2018. Okay. So you haven't been for, what, let's say two and a half years. And how much does it cost a week?
Starting point is 00:41:22 $13.90. All right, so let's do the math on that. That's $1,800 that you have just lost out on. Casey, get your wallet ready because you're about to have a lot more spending money for the shops, okay? Yep, cool. Just checking.
Starting point is 00:41:38 You want us to cancel, right? Yes, sure. Let's do this, Casey. We're empowering each other. No, you just need to stay really quiet, okay, Casey? All right, let me do the work here, sure. Let's do this, Casey. We're empowering each other. No, you just need to stay really quiet. Okay, Casey? All right, let me do the work here, Casey. Welcome to ****** speaking.
Starting point is 00:41:53 I was just calling. I'm a representative for a client, and I needed to cancel the gym membership today. So you're her representative? Yes, I'm her support representative. Oh, okay. I'll just go up and check her file. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Because we do require a month's notice for any cancellation. Right. Is there any way that we can waive that today? Yeah, I'll just look at her account and just see what's happening with it. So she hasn't been in or anything lately? Yeah, no, she hasn't been since 2018. Obviously, you know, there's been a bit going on with COVID and then her priorities have just changed a little bit.
Starting point is 00:42:28 I was also going to ask you while I'm here, is there any potential refunds because she hasn't been for so long? No, unlikely to be because that's at the member's choice not to come. What about like a free towel or water bottle or something? Don't do towels and water bottles anymore. Stop doing that. Is Casey with a C? Casey with a K.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Oh, yeah, she has been a member for a while. Because, yeah, usually it's a month's notice. I miss they give a doctor's note, and we do require the person to come actually in. Right. It's quite confronting. I mean, I can't come in because I'm actually, I mean, my offices aren't in Masterton.
Starting point is 00:43:05 So are you able to put a cancellation on her behalf and print it out and email it back? Yeah, well, can you email the cancellation form to her email? Do you have it on file there? Yep, just a moment. I'm just going to have a chat with the manager if we can do anything. Just a moment. I feel like she may be passing me to the manager. Hi there, can I help you?
Starting point is 00:43:24 Hi there. I'm a representative for Casey. I am just calling this afternoon because I'd like to cancel her gym membership for her. Okay, so to cancel a membership, we need the member to fill out a cancellation form and we need for them to give four weeks notice of cancelling so the membership won't just stop straight away. The reason for it is she just hasn't been and her priorities have changed she's become a food connoisseur now and she just doesn't have the time so um that's fine i mean you've she's fully entitled to cancel but we do need her signature on a cancellation form right are you able to be able to come in and
Starting point is 00:43:58 are you able to email that to her do you have an email address? I don't. Look, this is all just very seems like a lot of effort. I might give my client a call back and just see if she's able to come in. Yep, that would probably be the easiest. Okay, great. Thanks so much. If she can pop into the gym, that would be easier. Thank you. Okay, thanks. Bye. Bye.
Starting point is 00:44:19 No! You know what they say? They say it's hard to cancel your gym membership. Gee! Casey, no wonder you haven't been able to quit this thing since 2012. You have to jump through so many bloody hoops to get out of a gym membership. Yep. I thought you had to go on.
Starting point is 00:44:35 That's why I was putting it off. I know. That's what they want. Because you know what the system says? The system goes, what does this member not want to do? Come into the gym. They obviously don't. That's why they want to quit. So to quit the membership
Starting point is 00:44:46 we're going to make them come into the gym. Hey Casey. Yeah? I've got an idea. What about if I fly to Masterton and I go into your gym to cancel your membership for you? Let's talk about exes getting together
Starting point is 00:45:02 and by that I mean your partner's ex and exes getting together. And by that I mean your partner's ex and your ex getting together. It's happened to Ben Affleck and this guy's punching so hard. He's back together with Jennifer Lopez. To be fair, to any man who dated Jennifer Lopez, they're going to say you're punching. She's one of the best looking women in the world. He's punching.
Starting point is 00:45:27 They're happily together. They were together and then they broke up and they had other relationships. And now her ex, Alex Arod, the baseball player, has been spotted dating Ben Affleck's ex, Lindsay Shookus. She's an American television producer. Oh, the one with the good tookus. Yeah, Lindsay Shookus with the good shookus. I am shooketh at that news.
Starting point is 00:45:53 No, I'm not. But it's weird, right? It's weird to think that you've moved on from this person and they've moved on from their person and then these two people have got together. Because arguably, you could argue, the only thing those people have got in common is you guys. Well, that's what you think, but they may just have a lot in common.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Well, I like to think that I'm the centre of the universe. They may. And that everything revolves around me. Really like each other. This happened to Shania Twain, and even on a larger scale, because she obviously married her husband. They were together. Wasn't his name Mutt or something?
Starting point is 00:46:23 I can't remember. But her best friend was married to a guy and then her best friend and her husband were having an affair. She found out about it and it was a big secret. And then her husband and her best friend ran off together and got married and they're still together. And then years later, like a couple of years later, she got in touch with her best friend's ex-husband
Starting point is 00:46:47 and they got chatting and they connected and now they're married. See, that's a happy ending, but I can't help but believe that somehow, somehow at the root of their relationship, they are bonded by mutual grief, that they both had this traumatic experience. I think the word you're looking for is hatred.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Or hatred, yeah, yeah. Or revenge. They share a common enemy. Or hatred, yeah, yeah. Or revenge. They share a common enemy. Yeah, revenge. Revenge. You know, in the gay community, you could actually end up dating, wait, so what did I say? Your exes could date each other.
Starting point is 00:47:16 So, yeah, so say you date one person and then you break up and then you date another person, you break up, and then you move on. Those two people could end up dating. So your literal exes are dating each other. Yeah. Weird. So you've slept with both of them. God, that'd be horrible.
Starting point is 00:47:32 They've slept with you and then they slept with each other. Everybody in there has slept with each other. The worst part would be you find out that your two exes, that you probably, you know, if you cared a lot about and then you find out that they're together and then you're like, oh, my God, all they probably are doing is talking about me. Yeah, again. Like they're not.
Starting point is 00:47:53 Yeah, they're not. But maybe. But maybe. Sometimes they would be. Well, they'd have that thing in common. Sometimes they'd go. Sometimes they'd go. Imagine that.
Starting point is 00:48:00 Imagine that. One night they're lying there in bed. They've just done it and they're like, hey, I've got a topic for you. What do you reckon the most annoying thing was about Brie? Yeah, and then it just goes on. That conversation would go on for 45 minutes. There'd be so many things. Let's take some calls on it this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Love to hear some people from the gay community who have a couple of exes. Yeah, have your exes ended up dating each other, but also the other one of that. Yeah, other relationships too. If you and your partner have exes who have ended up together, if you can answer this question, you'll know, did your exes get together?
Starting point is 00:48:36 That's what we want to hear about this afternoon. It'll be all different shapes and sizes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Different ways. We'll take everything this afternoon. How did it make you feel? How did you find out about it? Did they try to keep it a secret from you.
Starting point is 00:48:46 So many questions about this topic. You can remain anonymous. You can give us a call on 0800DIALZM or you can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. We want to know if your exes dated each other or got together after you. You moved on and then the only thing they had in common was you,
Starting point is 00:49:02 so they had to get together, right? And every night they sit there talking about you. You're the centre of their universe. And the only reason they're not together is despite you. I love this text on the text machine. Someone said, this chat of exes hooking up is too relevant in the city of Hamilton. Shout out to Hamilton. You know, Hamilton's not a small town, but it would be very relevant for any of New Zealand's small towns, you know? Because the dating pool is so small. Someone else said, this just sounds like the lesbian dating scene to me.
Starting point is 00:49:30 Well, yeah, there's that too, I guess. Anywhere there's slim pickings going on, you know. See if you can get your head around this text. I can't. My dad's wife's ex-husband is married to my mum, and my mum's husband's ex-wife is married to my dad. Well, you can't read it that fast and then go, see if you can wrap your head around it. You've got to do it slow. My dad's wife's ex-husband.
Starting point is 00:49:49 My dad's wife's ex-husband. Got it. Is married to my mum. And my mum is married to my husband's. Nah, he lost me. Nah, I lost myself too. I think it's a wife swap. I think that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Let's talk about dating exes. Gemma's here. Hi, Gemma. Hi, Gemma. Hi. Hello. Was it you or your exes that have dated? It's me.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Well, no, it's a little bit more complicated than that. I was dating a woman for a while, and then a few months later I got together with her ex. Okay. And the two of us have been together for about six years now. So it worked out really well for us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Not so much your first girlfriend. So your ex is the person that Bree was talking about. Both of her exes are now together. And is it true? Do you guys spend your evenings talking about your ex and everything you hate about her? I wouldn't say evenings, but it's definitely come up as a topic. Yeah, there we go. Gemma, it's more of a brunch topic. Was it weird at first? Like how was that first initial meeting? Because obviously
Starting point is 00:50:54 when you met your current partner now, you would have known that she dated your previous partner. How did you guys meet? Because there was two people with the same name, that was this woman's exes, I asked her if she was the crazy one or the bitch one and that's sort of how I introduced myself to her. Just out of interest, which one was she? Not the crazy one. If you have to get one, I guess you got the best of a bad bunch.
Starting point is 00:51:25 That's amazing. Anonymous is here. Hello, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. Did your exes get together? So mine's also a little bit different. I left my family for other reasons.
Starting point is 00:51:38 It's not, you know, important. Sure. my ex-husband got together with my family and now his wife is considered the daughter-in-law by my mother that is so hard to wrap your head around so he cut you out of your own family is that what you're saying?
Starting point is 00:51:58 yeah well he kind of he assisted there were other reasons but yeah the main one is did he get together with assisted. There were other reasons. But yeah, the main one is... Did he get together with... Right. Okay. So it's not one of your sisters though. It's... Yeah. Wow. That's complex. Yeah. Well, he has been in the pool with my sister and my sister-in-law. So, you know, who knows what happens there.
Starting point is 00:52:19 In the pool or in the pool? Whoa. Yeah. What kind of pool is it? This person wants to remain anonymous as well. Hello, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. Is it you that your exes have dated? No, so my current wife and I share the same ex. So I was with the ex first and she was cheating on me with my wife. I broke up with my ex and my wife and I got together and 14 years later, here we are. You got with, wait a minute, Anonymous, you got with the mistress?
Starting point is 00:52:55 Yes. And then now you guys have been married. And now you're married. And now we're married. Did you, okay. 14 years later. Wow. Did your wife, when your wife was sleeping with your girlfriend
Starting point is 00:53:07 before you guys were together, did she know about you? She did. Wow. So, Anonymous, how did you move past the point of absolutely hating her guts to then marrying her? I still ask myself that now. I'm not sure how that happened, but obviously it was meant to be.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Anonymous, I just picture fights in your relationship, like when there's a fight that happens, and you go, remember that time you did that thing to me? Yeah. Yeah, I win. We're having pizza. Hold the grudge forever.

A lady who is a customer support manager for a dating app that she can't name for legal reasons has released a list of the top three red flags when it comes to men's online dating profiles,
Starting point is 00:57:50 just men specifically. Okay. So I want to ask you and producer Anastasia, sorry, Ben, you're not swiping up any men, so you can't contribute. No, I think it's swiping right. Swiping, well, you know. Swiping up is a super like.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Don't do that either. Don't do that either. Don't do that. That's a red flag. Bree and Anastasia, give me a red flag. I'll see if it's in the top three. We'll start with you, Bree. If their first picture is of them and another girl. Because usually they're looking for someone to join the fun.
Starting point is 00:58:24 It's true. No, fun. It's true. No, no. It is true. So many of those. It's a good red flag, not in the top three. Anastasia, what's a big red flag on the dating apps when it comes to men? A shirtless gym selfie or like mirror selfie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Probably a bit self-obsessed. Yeah, good red flag. Yeah. Not in the top three. Okay. How is that not in the top three? Let me hit you with them. The first one, it is profile picture based.
Starting point is 00:58:51 If he has a car in his profile picture, in particular a fancy car. This expert who works for the dating app says eight out of ten times if he has a flash car in his profile picture, not his car. He's just flexing. Especially if they're sitting front and centre on the bonnet. Yes. Because if you had a nice car. You know the pose I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:59:12 And it's the fisheye lens that looks like from a low angle. Low angle. Yes. Okay, so that's one of the top three red flags on the dating apps. Another one. This one's really interesting. Mum stuff. If his bio references his mum, for example,
Starting point is 00:59:29 my mother is my word, this expert says it either means he's going to ghost you or he's going to propose to you within a month. There's no in between. Really? Did you guys put like your mum will love me, like I'm good with mum? No, not your mum.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Not your mum. love me, like I'm good with mum. Nah, not your mum. Yeah. Not your mum. His mum specifically. I don't love that chat. Yeah, it's gross. If my mum will actually love you, you won't boast about her loving you. Yeah, you'll be trying to get away from her. No, but you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:00:02 What? Just kidding. I don't get it. The last red flag when dating, looking for men on the dating apps. This is not my opinion. This is from someone who works in customer service at one of the big dating apps. If he calls himself an entrepreneur. Oh, so many of those guys. If he calls himself an entrepreneur,
Starting point is 01:00:28 even more if he calls himself a writer or a musician, it means he has no money and you're going to be paying for dinner. No job. Entrepreneur. But it's so fun to say. It is. Entrepreneur. I live in my mum's granny flat.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Entrepreneur. Entrepreneur. I cannot. Brianne Clint. I want to talk Who's the worst drivers For a second Out of Out of all the different Types of cars you see on the road
Starting point is 01:00:53 Because a survey's been done Where they've asked 4,000 people Who they thought were the worst drivers On the road Based on the type of vehicle Like the brand of car. Producers, I want to get your take on this as well. Should we do the top five?
Starting point is 01:01:12 Go on then. Let's do the top five. Coming in at fifth was Ford owners who received 4.2%. The ranger drivers out there. The boat. Anyone in a ranger, fifth worst drivers. Okay, interesting. Coming in at number four was people who drive Range Rovers.
Starting point is 01:01:37 People considered them the fourth worst drivers on the road. Really? Yes. I consider them some of the richest people in the world. Those things cost so much money. Yeah. Yeah. The fourth worst drivers.
Starting point is 01:01:49 Coming in at number three for the worst drivers on the road were people who drive white vans. So that's all plumbers, all sparkies. Any type of van, but just a white van. Yeah, got it. I want to go around the room. What do we think came in at number one and two? I think BMW drivers are in the number one spot. I'm going to put my own money on that.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Okay, number one spot, BMW drivers. I would have said Mercedes. Mercedes drivers up there? Yeah, I don't know many cars, which I'll say Subaru. Ben drives a Subaru. I love that you're not into cars. I think it's so cute, Ben. Silver cars.
Starting point is 01:02:31 But why would you pick your own car? He's admitting he's a bad driver. Why would you pick your own car? He's not into cars because he doesn't know how to drive them. Coming in at number one for who people thought were the worst drivers on the road, BMW drivers. Yeah. Follow the road. BMW drivers. Yeah. Followed closely by Audi drivers.
