Hello everybody, welcome to the Brian Clint Podcast where we have to do our own sound effects today because we've got to record it a different way because Producer Ben is working off-site because, well you know, we're in a bloody pandemic, you know, so... He quit! So, um, ready? Actually, I might call on Anastasia to do this. Oh no, she's busy. You need to do the trumpets.

Can you do the intro trumpets? Yeah, that's good. I think that was good. I don't think people will notice. I think we just cut to that bit. Yeah. And just don't even mention it. No, I don't think we need to.

Yeah, Ben, if you're listening, just start the podcast from there. It's pretty much seamless. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, good. Do we even need Ben at this stage? This is what we need to start. Something I ask all the time.

Ben, when you're editing this, don't listen to this, but do we even need Ben? Well, it's a conversation I feel like we should have. With or without Ben? Oh, probably without him first and then maybe with. So you're saying we don't even need him for the conversation? No, I probably need him for the convo just to get his thoughts on it. Yeah, right. Okay.

Yeah. Okay. Ben, you can start listening again now. He would have skipped that part, eh part Yeah, he would have skipped that part Anastasia, have you been listening to any of this? Did you get any of it? Yeah Thoughts? Feelings?

I miss Ben A lot Good balance in the conversation Sounds so genuine No, I do, I really do No, I just said I just said you sound so genuine No hate towards our other friends

I mean, I feel bad for Ella. She didn't even know her name. She goes, our friend. My name's Ella. I've been calling you replacement Ben. Oh, that could work. I love you both equally. Seeing as you are currently replacement Ben,

I think you need to replace Ben in our milk-off, which today you need to take a break. Where you will be milking... A cow? No. A goat! A goat! I've never done that. She's vegan. Oh yeah, no, I'm vegan. She can't do the almond milk. You can do that.

So Ella, we've each been inventing a new milk flavour and bringing it to the table. Today was meant to be Ben, and he's gone down, so we can't use him. I feel like that's the reason he's not here. I choked. Yeah, yeah.

He choked. Under the pressure. He had no ideas and he thought, nah, I'm going to get out of here. He said he needs to buy a cow and milk it and that's why it's going to take

a couple of weeks. Have you guys ever milked a cow? Yes. Once. It was weird. Unsatisfying. Is that what turned you vegan? A lot of other things.

Seaspiracy. Do you want me to get into it? No. Nah, you keep that one for your TED talk. Nah, I'm sure. We'll get into that convo. Have you guys done an actual milking shed? Like, you know, like that.

Yeah. Put the tits on the udders or whatever. Oh, machine milking. That's a lot of fun. Oh, yeah. It's a school trip. They're stressful, though. Like, they're...

You know? Yeah. I'm just calling Ben to see if this is the real reason why he didn't show up today. If he pussied out of the milk off, you know? I mean, that's what I said, I reckon. Yeah. I'm putting my money on that. If it is, what do I think is a reasonable...

The person you have dialed can't make... Oh, suspicious. He's avoiding it. All right, Ella, you're up. So tomorrow we would like you to invent a milk flavor. Don't put it together at home. Please bring it here and you can prepare it in the work blender. Oh, actual?

Yeah, and it can only be with stuff you have at your house. I've been seeing you guys make smoothies. That's why. They haven't been nice. It's not a smoothie. It's a milk flavor. It's not a milkshake. It's not not a smoothie. It's a milk flavor. It's not a milkshake. It's not a thick shake.

It's a milk flavor. So what have your ones been? So I can have some info. Yeah, avoid these. So Bree's? Mine was chalk mint biscuits. Oh. So it was like a chalk milk, chocolatey mint milk.

Chalk mint. It was a chalk mint milk. It was a chunky chalk mint milk. I can see the idea. It was good. Mine was a peanut butter milk. It was a chunky choc mint milk I can see the idea It was good Mine was a peanut butter milk Peanut Oh

These sound like smoothies Peanut butter It was flavour We probably should have strained it We don't have the We don't have the professional facility It's a goddamn pandemic Okay

We've got to work I don't have any Whatever they Just my peanut butter milk Was very good Everybody said Oh cool It was pretty average actually

It was quite thick It made your mouth Feel like the whole mouth Was covered in nut oil But how do we pick a winner He put the whole Peanut butter Jar in there

We picked the winner Just you, me And Brie And Ella Because Ella can only vote For herself That's what's awkward about it No

Yeah I'll vote for me And Anastasia made Avocado nut milk Yeah it was a vibe Was it? It was a vibe in the same way that Lorde's new aesthetic is a vibe

Like it was very charge your crystals in the moonlight milk I was trying to say Burn the sage That was the vibe I got from your avocado nut milk Your birthstone would have been an amethyst. Absolutely. Your milk's birthstone. Oh, so many ideas.

It knew its star sign. Yeah, absolutely. So, yeah, the floor is yours. Tomorrow? So I bring the ingredients as well. And a sage can help you steal a nut milk if you need one? No, no, no. See, this is where it gets interesting.

She can't see those without. No, I've stolen enough nut milk. If anyone's going to steal milk, don't steal any more nut milk because it'll be all, my hand prints will be all over it. Can I just add in this, just for one thing, how fucking weird that we milk nuts. Like, how do you milk nuts? Well, you don't, you soak it.

You whiz them up. You soak it. No, but that's what I mean. Oh, wait. I don't know. Where does it come from? Like, how do they pulverize them? And then literally they're milking them because they're pretty much squeezing.

It's not like an adder. No, it's a blender. No. Well, I know that they don't have adders. I thought the pointy bit of the nut was the nipple. Yeah. No, but that's what I mean. They're literally milking it because they're squeezing it so tight.

But it doesn't have feelings. That the juice comes out. They're not. They're just pureeing it. Yeah. Bad for the environment. Be sure. You can make your own.

Well, that's how they make almond milk anyway. You soak the almonds overnight and then you blitz them. Like whose idea was it to go, you know what? I'm going to take this real hard thing that's nutty and delicious and I'm going to turn it into milk. Well, whose idea was it to drink the milk of other species in the first place? Exactly. There was some real adventurous dude out there who had to settle on cow eventually.

How far down the list was cow and how high up the list was horse? Which baby's idea was it to suck on their mum's titties? Instinct, I think. I think the first baby. No, well, I guess it wasn't the baby. I guess it was the mum. I think it was the mum who went, I've just had a baby. What is happening?

Why are my boobies so big and hard and there's milk coming out of them? Also, how badass are we as women? Where we make food. That's right. We make food. You make the person and the food. Yeah, true. Making the person is probably more impressive.

It's all impressive. It's all impressive. Yeah, it's probably more impressive. Yeah, and all we do is a little bit of fertilising. Question. How are babies made? I know how that happens. It's a different podcast. Actually, how would you

explain that? I don't want to know. Would you try your own milk? Yeah, absolutely. Stage? What's your nickname? Stage. I'd need nickname? Stage. Stage. I'd need breasts for that. You can have some of mine.

I'll develop. That's what they keep on saying. Yeah, what? You have to. You have to try at least once. You're curious. I'm not like, I wouldn't be like, you know, chugging on it every day. I wouldn't be putting it on my cereal. Doesn't it just like pop out all like random times? Apparently it's not very good oh well everyone's tried stuff everyone's

has it my wife's your own oh your wife's what's the right way to answer it what it tastes was it warm yeah it's warm well no well no actually this is a good one from the tap. What? I did not. What do you mean the tap? I did not. What does that mean? Correct from the source. Oh, he's... Oh! That's gross. I didn't.

You're the one that started that because you made that joke there. I had it out of a bottle, okay? Like a little baby. I don't want to know. That's a weird name for boob. I just take... This conversation can end. Ella, tomorrow you're bringing the milk.

Can it be warm? I have an idea. It can be warm. Yeah, it can be warm. No. No, it can be. Ella, tomorrow you're bringing the milk. Can it be warm? I have an idea. It can be warm. Yeah, it can be warm. No. No, it can be. It's not a milk drink, by the way. It's a milk...

Do what you want. Do what you want. I don't want to inhibit your creativity. No, we need to specify it. It's not a milk drink. It's a milk flavor. But it can't come from your body. Okay?

If that's what you mean by warm, it can't come from your body. Clint. That's so yuck. No, no, no. It's just going to be like mean by warm, it can't come from your body. Clint. That's so yuck. No, no, no. It's just going to be like, maybe not soup, but I have inspirations from soup. Actually, she needs some context.

Speaking of warm milk, how good is Weet-Bix in warm milk? No. Oh, I love that. So good. I want that now. It's delicious. Oh, it's great for sore throats.

Is it? Yep. Anyway, try that if you're in lockdown. You've got Weet-Bix, warm milk, heat it up in the microwave. I like to save milk and use hot water and then just finish it off with milk. Clint eats his Weet-Bix with hot water. Yeah, that's great. And then just top it with milk.

No. I thought you were with me. Yeah. I'm with you, Clint. Yeah, we're frugal. Team frugal. Team cold Cold water

You need to try it Have you tried hot milk Weet-Bix Yeah Have you though Yeah I have Oh no I haven't Alright look we've got lots to try

Everybody panic. Why are you doing that? Everybody panic. That's horrible to do right now. I'm just kidding. I'm just showing you how we shouldn't behave right now. That was a bad joke. No, it wasn't a joke.

It was a demonstration. And how stressed did it make you? In that three seconds that you did that, I've bought 100 rolls of toilet paper. Now what do I do with this? That's right. You'll go through those in a weekend. Why did you buy so few?

I know we shouldn't stockpile, but at least buy provisions so you don't have to go to the supermarket every day. I mean I'm still using toilet paper I bought last lockdown Right? So we cleaned out my nan's house and we found a whole room full of toilet rolls. No you didn't. Yeah it wasn't

even a pandemic she just kept buying them she never wanted to run out and she was buying those 48 roll packs that you get from the warehouse. Have you ever seen those? No. 48 roll packs Well I mean look at my mum. Mama Di, when last lockdown, she ran out of toilet paper. Oh, yeah, she had to use her silk scarf.

And we were like, what are you using? And what do you use? What did she use? Paper towels, eh? I think they used paper towels. They went to paper towels. Then she found some old Christmas napkins. Oh, that's a rough ride.

And there was glitter on those. There's a lot of dye in a Christmas napkin. If you want to talk about the jazzle, that's a situation. She'd have a red ring around her. That was a merry, merry Christmas, that was. Yeah. Anyway, we're not panicking.

That was totally just role play, example of what not to do. I actually had never... 140 something cases. Who cares? I read this article the other day because we went and did our grocery shop last week. Yeah. Just like a week.

It's an experience. A week worth of food. Yeah. But there was no meat. No meat. No meat. No bread when I went. No bread.

Yeah. There was a bit of fresh produce at the place we went to But not much And I was like What is going on? There's literally not one piece of meat And then I read this article today Where it was like Oh, people aren't panic buying

They're just stocking up I was like It's the same thing It's the same thing If you buy twice as much as you need But you do it calmly It's still panic buying Yeah

Same Right, anyway Like I said, we're not panicking We're going to get through this as you need, but you do it calmly, it's still panic buying. Yeah. Same. Right. Anyway, like I said, we're not panicking. We're going to get through this. The ZM Podcast Network. Bree and Clint. Tradie versus Lady.

Still focus on the back end, huh? Right. Hannah, or Colonel Hide the Sausage, can I ask you a question about the room that you currently occupy? Does this room have a recognisable smell? No. No. Okay.

Okay. You know how kitchens have a smell? Yeah. And bathrooms have a smell? And garages have a smell? Laund a smell and garages have a smell? Laundry. Laundries have a smell. It's actually quite helpful.

Thank you, Hannah. Oh, no. Yeah, no smell. Okay. I'm going to take a page out of what you said yesterday. What is the flooring type in the room that you're in? It has carpet. Ah, okay.

I feel like she's hiding in the closet and she thinks it's someone else. Listen to her. She's like laughing. She's like, like a kid when you hide in the closet. It does sound very muffled. And you're like, Marco, and you can just. All right, I agree with you. It's a closet.

It's got a freshness smell. Yeah, that's a smell. That's why they call her Colonel... That would have given too much clues. Yeah, I know. We're trying to get clues, Hannah. That's the part of the title, Quarantine Cluedo. That's why they call her Colonel Hide the Sausage.

She had some ice. Listen to her. Look, she's like, got those suckers. Let's go to Sandy. Hi, Sandy. Hey, Sandy. Hey, guys. Professor Dutch Oven.

No reaction from Professor Dutch Oven. Maybe a little bit too close to home. Professor Dutch Oven, can I ask you a question about the room you're currently in? How many people could you comfortably fit inside this room? Ooh, probably about 10 or 20. It's quite a big room. I know where she is. Quite a big room.

Professor Dutch Oven, would you say this is like a good room to have drinks in with other people? Definitely. Definitely. Definitely. She's either in the lounge or she's in the garage. Oh, yeah, not everyone's garage is a good place to have drinks.

Really? Whose garage isn't good to have drinks in? My garage. It's only because it's full of shit. Yeah. Let's split the vote. I'm going garage. Sandy's in the garage.

I'm going kitchen living room area. Sandy, are you in the garage or the kitchen living room area? I'm on the deck. Oh, that's not a room. It is the perfect place to have drinks is on the deck. Damn it, you got us there. You got us. Okay, so we're zero from two.

Let's go to Hayden. Hi, Hayden. G'day, Hayden. How we going? We desperately need runs on the board here, Hayden, so we're going to probe you and we're going to probe you hard, okay? Fire away. All right, that's why we're going to call you Mr Vaseline.

Well, you're not a fire off my real name. Okay, Professor Vaseline. The room that you're in currently, is it one that people regularly renovate? And by that, I mean more than just a coat of paint and some new carpet? No. Right, okay, thank you.

Hayden, would this be a room that you generally would hang out and spend quite a lot of time in? Yes. So it's not like toilet or bathroom? It's not toilet or bathroom because those are renovation rooms. Not laundry.

It's not laundry. That's a renovation room. Kitchen is a renovation room. And he wouldn't hang out in there regularly. It's bedroom or living room. He doesn't hang out in their bedroom or their living room. Yeah, that's where you hang out. And he said, you do or you don't hang out there?

No, I said, do you hang out in that room a lot? And he said what? He said yes. Oh, he said he does. Oh, he's in the bedroom. Didn't you, Hayden? You said yes. Yeah, I'm just listening to you go back and forth.

Yeah, you're right. Yeah, he's in the bedroom or the living room. What sort of man is he? Professor Vasily. I'll, you're right. Yeah, he's in the bedroom or the living room. What sort of man is he? Professor Vasily. I'll give you a hint. I haven't been in bed since about 8 o'clock this morning. Ooh, it's living room.

Is that a diversion? Oh, he could be tricking us. All right, let's go to the living room. This is getting too hard. Hayden, you're in the living room. Hayden, you're currently occupying the living room. No, I'm out the back of my house

sitting in my bar having a beer because I finished my jobs for the day. Wait, wait. Wait a minute. You've, I'm out the back of my house sitting in my bar having a beer because I finished my jobs for the day. Wait, wait, wait a minute. You've got a bar out the back of your house? We didn't know outdoor bar was a category. I mean... It's called the soup... It's a room, technically.

It's called the soup kitchen because my name's homeless. Right. They're getting too good. Yeah, right. They're getting too crafty. They're inventing rooms to outsmart this game. We did say include backyard front yard. Yeah, yeah, good. Yeah, right. They're getting too crafty. They're inventing rooms to outsmart this game. We did say include backyard front yard. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tomorrow, call us from your pool house or something. Thank you, Professor Vaseline. Enjoy your lockdown. Thank you for calling the show. Thanks, Mr. Vaso. You too. Mr. Vaso. Imagine if you got married to Mr. Vaso.

He's a slippery number. He is. Next, a list of foods that will shorten your lifespan. Great. I'm going to stick around for this. The ZM Podcast Network. As we sit here in lockdown consuming all the food in our pantries, you know, because it's a responsible thing to do.

You should eat everything in the pantry first before you go out and do your panic buying. I've ate some real off. Have you? Off stuff, yeah. You're doing your civic duty by doing that. Yeah, real out of use by date stuff. Good, good.

You're a patriotic New Zealander for doing that. That's what you do, eh? I came across this story and thought, this is a terrible thing to read out. So we're going to do it. It's a list of foods that will shorten your life expectancy when you eat them. I don't want to know about this.

I don't care. You know, it's like, you know those lists? You do care. You know the two lists I don't care about You know it's like, you know those lists? You do care. You know the two lists? You know the two lists I don't care about? This list and the list of how long it will take you to exercise off this certain

type of food. Like it'll be this much running for a donut. Don't care. Don't want to know. Okay, no exercise component to this then. Just how fast it's going to kill you. That's even worse. But there's a list of foods on here which will extend your life expectancy. So maybe you can have both of them on the plate and cancel each other out. I don't know the science of it, but I'll give you this list.

So there's been a study done that says on average 0.45 minutes are lost per gram of processed meat that somebody eats. So you lose 45 seconds of your life for every single gram of processed meat. Okay, what includes processed meat? Chicken nuggets? Chicken nuggets. Yeah, exactly right. That's a processed meat.

That's the best type of nugget. Bacon is a processed meat. No, it's not. Yes, it is. It's straight off the animal. No, it's gone through a process. Nah. Bacon. Don't include

bacon. I'm going to give you the list. Why have you taken bacon from me in lockdown? I'm going to give you the list, okay? Because then they become danger foods. They might be more exciting to eat, okay? That's not how it works. Pizza. What about pizza? How much time does pizza take off your life? Don't you dare. A pizza... It's healthy. It'll put

life back onto your life. A pizza steals 7.8 minutes of your life. Why are you doing this? That's one of the good ones. Cheddar cheese steals 1.4 minutes of your life every serving. Wait. Pizza, seven minutes. A double cheeseburger.

Okay, how about a double cheeseburger? Two patties, two slices of cheese. I don't want to know. 8.8 minutes of your life. Good! That's alright, I'm eating pizza at Fliss. Bacon, 6.4 minutes of your life. I said not to include bacon. Imagine if that's per strip

of bacon as well. So every time you have three strips of bacon, you lose a quarter hour of your life. Why are you laughing? Not funny. Soft drinks. Fizzy drinks. I'm not that keen on soft drinks. I don't really drink many fizzy drinks. Bring the soft drinks on. But people do and I know people consume a few of them

so we do a day. People won't be happy about this. Anastasia had one before the show. 12.4 minutes of your life per fizzy drink that you consume. And a hot dog. And when I say a hot dog I mean like an American hot dog with cheese and the whole sausage is processed meat. It's that shitty meat. Yeah.

Will steal 36.3 minutes off your life. 33 minutes? Per hot dog. So you think about that guy who eats 27 hot dogs in that hot dog eating competition. Oh, he's in trouble. He's already dead, probably. That's why that's an extreme sport. Because he's got to do training as well. He's got to go

into training. Yeah, it's an extreme sport. It's in the X Games. So what adds time to your life? Avocados? An avocado will add 2.8 minutes to your life. So you could have avocado and bacon maybe. I love an avocado hot dog. Yeah, yum.

Bring that on. Bananas. A banana, if you eat a banana it's going to add 13.5 minutes to your life. Yeah, yum. Bring that on. Bananas. A banana, if you eat a banana, it's going to add 13.5 minutes to your life. Yeah, potassium. Yeah. What a frigging superfood. Have you seen on TikTok people- So if you have bacon-wrapped bananas, then you should be good to go. People are cooking the skin of bananas and eating it as bacon.

As bacon. Yeah. Well, those people are going to live forever. Tomatoes. You're Italian. You love tomatoes. I love tomatoes. Love tomatoes.

3.8 minutes gains. Oh, that's not that much. You're Italian. You love tomatoes. I love tomatoes. 3.8 minutes gain. That's not that much. Yeah, but have a few tomatoes, stew them down, stick them on a pizza. Oh, no, the pizza's going to kill you. Baked salmon. Oh, now we're talking rich people food. Oh, yeah, baked salmon.

We can only afford that in our household like once a month. Yes, okay. Well, you only need to have it once a month because a baked salmon is going to add 13.5 minutes to your life. Not for me, though, because it gives me gout, but, you know. Yeah, so it actually takes some time off. The ZM Podcast Network. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest.

Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Tom Cruise is in The Latest because of his curry eating habits. Welcome to the show, Dean. Hi, Dean. Hi, Dean. Hi, guys. Yeah, he is. He's making headlines around the world today. Tom Cruise snuck into a curry house in the UK,

and his meal was so delicious. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What do you mean he snuck into a curry house? Is this a Mission Impossible situation where he came in on wires and got through the curry house lasers? He slid down through the air conditioning vent, you know what I mean? No, upside down. What happened was he actually went in there and he was sitting there for two hours.

No one realized it was him. You know, like it would be kind of like, imagine if you're at a restaurant, you're not expecting to see Tom Cruise, one of the biggest stars in the world, sitting near you. He was in there just kind of incognito. He ordered the curry, chicken tikka masala. I hope I said that correctly. And then when he finished it, ordered the whole thing again. He just had two meals, which is

amazing. And then eventually someone in the restaurant was like, that's Tom Cruise. And then of course everyone lost it. Here's the thing with Tom Cruise though, I don't know if anyone knows this, but back in the day, he used to wear a light like a mask, but it's more like a prosthetic, but very, very, very light.

But that is how he would go out in public. Brad Pitt used to do it as well. They would wear like a light prosthetic face mask. Yeah. And that's how they would go. To disguise themselves. So they could, because I mean, they are way too famous. If I was sitting next to Tom Cruise at a food court though,

and there was a guy having a curry, I'd go, man, that guy looks like Tom Cruise. Won't be him, though. There's no way Tom Cruise will be in this food court having a curry. The thing that gives away Tom Cruise, though, is that he's quite short. Yeah, I'd be like, man, and that guy's really short.

And he's quite short. He could be Tom Cruise. No, it won't be, though. There's no way Tom Cruise is here having a tikka masala. That's what we did when we were in L.A. looking for Channing Tatum, and I go, God, that looks like Jonah Hill. Wouldn't be Jonah Hill. No, it wouldn't be Jonah Hill.

Not that we're at the Beverly Hills Hotel. He wouldn't be here. Bloody hell, it was him. The ZM Podcast Network. We're going to kill the COVID car line bingo game. No, no, no, I'm not going to pretend. I'm not going to sit here and do the radio thing where we pretend no one wanted to play.

We've come up with a great game. We've offered KFC chicken dollars. I mean, who doesn't want KFC? You can't get it right now, but trust me, it will come back. It will come back. And all you had to do was be in your car waiting to get a COVID test. I wasn't doing the radio thing and trying to cover it up. I was saying we've got to kill the feature because no one wants to play.

No, we're honest here. The feature died in the butthole again and I'm really sad about it because it's not often you come up with a brand new game. You know, if you had come up with this idea last week, it would have worked. Oh, so now... It would have worked.

When we had the seven hour testing queues going on, this is the perfect game. Well, now we've just got to hope for another cluster, don't we no no no no you know what the problem is you know who's really to blame i don't want to play that much you know who's really to blame our friends our frontline workers they're too efficient i love it everyone here just looked at me like i was serious as if i was serious about it okay oh wait no it's no wait there's someone calling it's over. Oh, they don't want to play.

We need more than one person to play the game. I'm going home. I'm going home. I've had enough. The ZM Podcast Network. ZM Bree and Clint. New Kiwi music. From Muraki, it's called Wavy.

He's from Wagland. Oh, I love Wagland. So many dogs there. He's from Ragland. A lot of dogs there too. Lots of dog beaches. It's from Ragland. A lot of dogs there too. Lots of dog beaches. Really good spot to take your dogs down to the beach. Wagland.

Wagland. Yeah, it's good. Look, we're going to move on. I've decided. We have moved on. Don't bring it up. No, I'm going to. Stop wallowing.

On my own terms, I'm moving on. Oh, you're calling it. Yeah, I'm calling it. And I don't want to play that game anymore and I'm going to move on we're going to talk about something else okay anyway

we're just going to segue real smooth it's good it's good it means it means that you your inability to take this failure

means that you don't fail often enough exactly turn this negative into a positive and ready watch this real smooth segue where people won't even

realise that we're moving on. Yeah. Because I reckon, you know what people are doing at the moment? They're having fights with their flatmates about who's doing the dishes. That's what people are up to. She's done it. She's kept it topical. She's kept it light and bright. It was a Hilary Berry

level segue, yeah. The key is talking about the segue after you do it. Yeah, exactly. That's when it really covers it up. That's the segue. The key is talking about the segue after you do it. Yeah, exactly. That's when it really covers it up, that segue. But it is a really big point of contention in flats at the moment because you're spending so much time, like more time than you ever would with people that you're not related to. And creating more mess than you normally would too just because you're there more often.

Yeah. There's more of you there at one time. You're cooking every meal there. Yeah. You're in and around the living areas you're blobbing out on the couch that's what's happening and um i read this situation online and i feel like maybe it's a good thing that we all weigh in on this topic because maybe it'll give some people's advice for you know that's going through this stuff at the moment So this guy has written in and he said, I have two roommates currently. They are both dating. I work the graveyard shift and eat and shower at my workplace

for 90% of the time. Got it. So 90% of the time he's showering and eating and cooking his meals at work. Cool. I'm a diesel mechanic and don't want to get grease in my car. That's the reason why I do all of that there. One of my roommates doesn't work much, so really just sits at home all day or goes to hang out with her family.

She decided I wasn't helping enough with chores and without saying anything made a chore list. Oh, she sounds like a fun flatmate. Doesn't it sound fun? You know, just your typical kind of stuff. When I do eat at the house, which is rare, I always wash my dishes and put them back in the machine. But when it's my day to do the dishes, the sink is always overflowing.

For example, I was staying at my girlfriend's house for three weeks and came back home because my roommates were going to be gone for a week and they needed someone to take care of their pets, which I always volunteer to do. When I came home, every single dish in the kitchen was dirty and I had to wash every single one. So the last thing he says is he goes, if we all just cleaned up after ourselves,

we wouldn't need a schedule. Here's the problem. You know who makes a cleaning roster? People who have too much time on their hands. People who are sitting around. Or the people that don't do much cleaning. And you know why they're time on their hands, people who are sitting around. Or the people that don't do much cleaning. And you know why they're not doing much cleaning? Because they're sitting around the house doing nothing,

and so they go, they've got time to look at things and go, that's a bit messy, so-and-so's not picked that up, they haven't picked that up. So that too makes the cleaning roster. I think people who are there too much. He's not there, so he's clean, does his thing, get in, get out. She's there going, this should be cleaner and we should be doing it 50-50. I just don't

understand. Have you ever had that rule? Because we've all flattered before. You and I flattered for a long time back in the day. Not together, I don't think. I don't remember flattering with you. Yeah, I lived with you for ages. Is that that noise in the basement? Do you know what I mean? You don't ever wash your flatmate's dishes.

No. I don't feel like that's a rule. No. Just do your own dishes. You just do your own. Oh, I have lived in flats where we attempted to do dishes nights. But it didn't work. So we would go, there's five of us, and we'd go, okay, Monday through Friday, or Sunday through Thursday, I think, and then Friday, Saturday,

we'd take away nights. We went, okay, whatever dishes accumulate that day, you do them on Monday, you do them on Tuesday, you do them on Tuesday, you do them on Wednesday. Oh, that sucks because what if you get a real bad dish day? It sucks because people, and it's not their dish day, are just like, YOLO, bitch. I'm going to use every pot in the house.

I don't even care. And they won't even rinse their dishes. So it'll come to you doing the dishes at the end of the day and there's just like caked on spaghetti on these plates. It doesn't work. You just do your own dishes. That's so interesting because I have that same kind of mentality when I'm cooking. You know how the cook doesn't clean?

Yeah, yeah. So I just use every single thing in the kitchen. Yeah, right. Could have picked that. Just do your own dishes, people. God, I'm glad I don't live in a cleaning roster situation. I can't think of anything worse. I've done up one here for at work if you want to take a look at that.

Cool send me an email babe. Okay sweet. The ZM Podcast Network. And when we used to like go on holidays and stuff and stay in hotels and sometimes when you stayed in those hotels that have a mini bar and you're like oh I wonder how much the things in the mini bar are. I always look. So you check the mini bar and you go $14

for a cookie. Should I? And then you do it just look. So you check the minibar and you go, $14 for a cookie. Should I? And then you do it just to do it. And you just do it. And you go, you know what? I only live once. I just do it. Stuff eating the cookie. I'm drinking all the drinks.

Or you eat the chippies. I never eat any of it until I come home steamed and I'm like, oh, I really should eat so I feel better tomorrow. Yeah, I better eat this $18 Mars bar. That'll make me feel better tomorrow. Yeah, it's eat this $18 Mars bar. That'll make me feel better tomorrow. Yeah, it's good stuff. This $15 bag of nuts.

The most expensive minibar item in the world has been named. And surprise, surprise, it's Booze. The Booze is a bottle of Louis the... Wait, this is Roman numerals. One, two, three. What's three after five? Six, seven, eight. Louis VIII

Grand Champagne Cognac I know what the bottle looks like, I've seen it It's that spiky kind of bottle Yeah and it's kind of like a circle shape kind of. Kind of looks like a toilet seat standing up but then with spiky bits coming off the edges and then it's got a gold crown You know the one, it's the one that's always in the case

at the bottle load. Behind a locked door Behind a locked door, yeah. It was available at the Intercontinental Amsterdam, and if you would like to consume a bottle of Louis VIII Grand Champagne Cognac from the minibar, it will cost you $6,000. How big's the bottle? Is it a normal bottle? No, it's a champagne bottle size.

So it's like, how much is in a bottle of champagne? Don't even know. But imagine you bring some mates home and you're like, afters at my hotel room. That's so dangerous. And then someone cracks open the Louis VIII. And you're like, what are you doing? And you don't realise at the time and then you're checking out the next day

and the room costs you $250 and they're like, okay, so the bill comes to $6,250. Sorry, excuse me? I'd be getting a candle and re-waxing that thing. Here's the thing about this. Mini bar item is every mini bar item is marked up substantially. They're charging you for convenience, you know? So the bottle of cognac is marked up as well.

$6,000 for the world's most expensive bottle in a mini bar. You can go down to Bloody Super Liquor and get the bottle for the low, low price of $3,400. Oh, what a steal. What an absolute steal. It only cost $3,400. They've added $2,600 as a convenience fee for your bottle of Coney. How heavy is that bottle to get it from the liquor store to the hotel room?

But I mean, the real question is, have you ever eaten or drunk stuff from the minibar and then regretted it and then went out and re-bought that stuff and then just put it back in the minibar? I know of people doing this. Is that frowned upon? Yes or no? I don't think it's frowned upon. I just think it's so much effort because Because Not at the time when it's convenient

If you've come home after a few drinks Yeah but then you've got to go out and get it And you've got to come back And then that's how they get you But if you knew you were going to do that You could pre-bring your own snacks Or is that too much forward planning? I feel like that's a lot of forward planning

That's the beauty of the minibar Where you're like Ooh there's snacks And I haven't had to think about it. And that's how they get you. Yeah. Did you know that some hotels are putting adult fun toys in the minibar now? Are they?

Yeah. So you're alone. I don't know about reusing that stuff. No, no, no. You're buying it. Oh. No, you don't put it back. Oh, yeah.

You don't put the stuff back in the minibar. It'll have a seal on it. Come on. The ZM Podcast Network. Every day that we're in lockdown providing a service, it is the morale boosting request. Where today, you know what? I'll allow the national anthem because it's a patriotic theme.

New Zealand music or drum and bass. Those are your two options. Very Kiwi. Tell you what, nothing like this topic to bring out the absolute frothers who listen to ZM. Mate. There are some artist names that can't even be pronounced being sent in on the text machine. Yeah, I know. And I love that.

Jump on the DMV train. We're going all the way to the winning zone this afternoon. We're getting it played on ZM, I'm telling you. Or is it just going to be a straight up New Zealand song? You know, that's the thing. That's what we're about to find out. That's what we're about to find out. We're about to find out.

We would like an impartial judge to join us on the phone. Oh, $800 ZM if you'd like to be that judge. You know, just in case we need you. Here are your options for today's morale boosting request. The idea of the song is to bring up the mood of the nation during lockdown. So is that going to be? This artist fits both categories.

New Zealand, drum and bass act, Shapeshifter. God, I love this song. It's uplifting. It's euphoric, yeah. It's an inspirational vibe. Every time I hear it,

I'm like, I can do anything. I don't know if this song in particular is strictly drum and bass, but they make drum and bass in this song. They count. Or is it going to be the Rhythm and Vines National Anthem, Wilkinson? Oh, yes! It's like blood boiling.

I love it. This is an uplifting song. This would get the mood of the nation up. And it's definitely drum and bass.. And it's definitely German bass. Ooh, it's got the feels. Speaking of Rhythm and Vines, is it going to be 15-time Rhythm and Vines veteran Netsky? We've got, you know, Netsky in the playlist already.

He's up there. Easy to play Netsky. He's almost New Zealand music. He's here so bloody often. He's almost a Kiwi. He's here so bloody often. He's almost a Kiwi. He almost qualifies for funding. Or is it going to be a straight up New Zealand song and bliss? This works too, right?

Absolutely. So those are our four options today. Let's just bring our impartial judge in to sense the mood. Hayden, welcome to the show. G'day Hayden. Kia ora. Big job you've got helping to raise the mood of the nation.

Do you have a favourite, Early? Are you leaning towards anything out of that? I'm looking at Blitz, but could you play the Jolly on Peach remix of that one? We don't know

because I don't have it ready to go. It's a bloody curveball. Wait, I didn't realise. Is there a remix? There's a remix of everything these days. It's just going on YouTube. Yeah, I love Hatch.

He loves the remixes. So no remixes, okay? Shapeshifter, Wilkinson, NetSky or the dudes. What's your gut saying? I prefer Shapeshifter, Electric Dream, but I'm happy to go with that one. Okay. Okay, still throwing us curveballs here, Hayden.

Yeah, chuck it in. That's okay. Okay, thank you for your input. Bree, what is your gut leaning towards? Look, as you guys know, I'm a big DMV fan. Huge, yeah. Probably one of the biggest, and I've got to go Wilkinson. Oh, you're going to go for Wilkinson?

That's my vibe. I thought we were going to lock it in there. No, that's my vibe. Oh, okay, Hayden. It's pointless for me to choose anything other than Shapeshifter Or Wilkinson at this stage So you've got to pick One or the other So I have to pick

One or the other I think That the correct song To bring up the mood Of the nation this afternoon What are the producers feeling One or two Shapeshifter

Or Wilkinson Don't throw a third In there this afternoon We don't have room for it Obviously Wilkinson Yeah It's the CUNY National Anthem

It's a banger Can I call it. Okay. I think Anastasia and Brie are right, and I hope Hayden agrees with us. Today, the morale boosting request. I'm so excited about this one. I'll bang it. It's going to be Wilkinson.

Yes, Hayden. He's on board. Nice work, mate. Done it as a team. Here you go, everybody. Your morale boosting request this afternoon to get you through day seven? Seven. I've done it before lockdown.

We're D&B fans. We're not counting. We don't count. The ZM Podcast Network. The main thing everyone was talking about yesterday was not the number of COVID cases. That was second. It was only second to the slip of the tongue that Chris Hipkins had. Look, it is a challenge in

higher density areas for people to get outside and to spread their legs when they are surrounded by other people. You can hear the moment he realises what he said. He's like, oh no. I mean, we've all been there. And he did have some fun with it.

Also, it was a national service. It's what we needed in that moment. Yeah. We needed some levity. Took our minds off of it. Yeah, thank you, Chris. I feel like we were laughing. We're all laughing with him.

Yes, correct. Like he's loving it. Bloomfield was loving it. He was having a bit of a. Oh, he was cracking up. Bit of an eyebrow raise, bit of a laugh. I thought this morning I woke up and I was like, how can we, you know, make this bigger?

How can we, you know, make a bit of a tribute to the response minister, Chris Hipkins? And I messaged producer Ben, well, actually formerly known as producer Ben. Has he got a new name? Yeah, I've dubbed him DJ FT Bean. FT Bean? Yeah. What's the FT stand for? Oh, you can figure that out later.

It's not Flick that, is it? It's just a DJ name. Not appropriate. Especially when we're talking about getting outside to spread. No, that's not appropriate. You said it, I didn't say it. That's not what it means. Alright, so you guys, so what have you and DJ FT Bean been doing? Me and DJ FT Bean been doing?

Me and DJ FT Bean have been working on a remix, the Spread Your Legs remix and it sounds like this. Look, it is a challenge in high density areas for people to get outside. They are

surrounded in some cases, it might be more sensible for them to drive a short distance to get to somewhere where they can get outside to spread their legs. Mate, that is a certified hit right there. That is a banger. That's going to absolutely go off at the next press conference. It's a banger, but it also carries a health message. It really goes.

It is. It does both. But look, I know what people may be thinking right now. I had the exact same idea that probably 25,000 other people had. And one of those people was the breakfast show at George FM. You've stolen their idea. Well, I feel like we had it. You've stolen their big idea.

We had it at the same time. This is their arena too. They're the remix people. It is. And they're running a competition at the moment. Right. And I thought, kill two birds with one stone, why don't we enter our remix into their comp

and we could win the really good prize they've got going. Oh, my God, that's a great idea. You and producer FT Bean could take out the rival radio station's remix competition. This is perfect because I used to work at George FM. I've got the phone number for the head honcho on the breakfast show, General Lee.

So what you're saying is bypass. Don't intimate. Let's call him. And we'll just play it to him. And we'll just bloody play it to him. This is great.

Give me one minute just to bring up his number. Can you text him? Yeah, I'll text him. Just say, hey, we've got something you might want to hear. We'll play it to him

straight after this. We're in the midst of something brilliant here. And obviously the biggest thing that's happened in this country over the past couple of days is the COVID response minister, Chris Hipkins, saying this. Look, it is a challenge in higher density areas for people to get outside and to spread their legs when they're surrounded by other people. Just the mere fact that this is headline news.

So good. Brings a smile to your face during a crisis. So good. I had the idea this morning. I was like, that needs to be turned into a remix. We've got the resident DJ FT Bean in our midst. Formerly known as Producer Ben. Formerly known as Producer Ben.

And anyway, he's made the remix. And then I've seen, obviously, George FM, who this is their exact wheelhouse, are running a competition for the Spread Your Legs remix. Exactly right. Don't let it deter you, though. It's an opportunity. Please welcome to the show host of the George FM Breakfast Show,

General Lee. Good afternoon. Kia ora. Kia ora. Hello, mate. How are you, team? You all right? Oh, we're not too bad. How are you guys doing over there at George? Oh, you know, we've got to put on a brave face

as radio people, you know what I mean? We're just putting in the mud, you know? What are your thoughts on a bit of cross-promotion here and us potentially entering your big remix competition? I think this is fantastic. I mean, we had a couple of things on the show this morning.

General? Yes. I think we've got the winner, mate. I think we have the absolute winner. Okay. Are you going to play it to me? Absolutely. Can we?

And if you like it, do we have your permission to enter it into the competition to win the big prize? Absolutely, man. Okay, good. But this is what I want from you, though, Lee. I need you to be brutally honest, okay? Okay. Is this like the voice panel? Absolutely.

Exactly right. All right, I'll introduce it. This is DJ FT Bean, formerly known as Producer Ben, and the Spread Your Legs remix. Look, it is a challenge in high-density areas for people to get outside. They are surrounded. In some cases, it might be more sensible for them

to drive a short distance to get to somewhere where they can get outside to spread their legs. Spread their legs, legs, legs. Spread their legs, legs, legs. Spread their legs, legs, legs. Spread their legs, legs, legs. Spread their legs, legs, legs. Oh, genuine legs.

You get the jazz. Mate, yeah, house, I love it. Their legs. Oh, General Lee. So, I mean, you get the gist. Legs, legs, legs. Mate, yeah, house. I love it. What do we reckon? Mate, I reckon it's an entry. Yes! Mate, it was too late because I've already sent it off. Just out of curiosity, what's the big prize?

What are we in line to win off you guys if we take out your remix competition? You get to go to a park in the middle of summer when we're open back up and spread your legs with Chris Hipkins. The ZM Podcast Network. This may be triggering for any parents in lockdown at the moment with kids who are addicted to these guys, but I've got Wiggles news. Hot potato, hot potato.

Hot potato, hot potato. Is it new music? I heard they were dropping new music this week. Possibly. I hear they're only releasing it on Tidal, though. So just like Beyonce. But they're all about that sound quality. Imagine if they just released a hardcore rap album.

Or a vinyl. Our stuff only comes out on vinyl now. I'd love that. No, the news is that the Wiggles have added four new members. There's four more Wiggles joining. Wait a minute. I thought you meant they're replacing the already Wiggles. They're adding four new colours.

No, no. So they're the same colours. They're adding in. So Blue Wiggle Anthony, Yellow Wiggle Emma, Purple Wiggle Lockie and Red Wiggle Simon will be joined by Blue Wiggle Evie, Yellow Wiggle Kelly, Purple Wiggle John and Red Wiggle Tocky and RedWiggleSimon will be joined by BlueWiggleEvie, YellowWiggleKelly, PurpleWiggleJohn and RedWiggleToshay. Good to see a few more ladies evening up the numbers. So it's an ethnic and gender diverse Wiggles line up

for a series to be released on YouTube. The Wiggles are getting with the times. And to be fair, the Wiggles are always fairly inclusive, but they're just going, we're not inclusive enough. We don't represent Australia first and foremost as it looks today and the rest of the world. So they're adding a whole lot more. They're also adding a gender-neutral unicorn into the mix.

Okay. Whose name is – I'm sorry, she's non-binary. No, they are non-binary, the unicorn. What's their name? Shirley Sean. Shirley Sean. Shirley, she's non-binary. No, they are non-binary, the unicorn. What's their name? Shirley Sean. Shirley Sean. Is the non-binary unicorn.

That's a bit of a cute name. I want to focus on one of the new additions in particular, though. I'll show you this guy because he's already famous and he's having a career change. He's an Aussie. So I should know who this is? Should I? I think so because you like this guy's stuff.

So I'm just wondering if you recognise him as a Wiggle and people listening will know who it is once we say who it is do you recognise the new Purple Wiggle joining the line up John I know exactly who that is I'll give you one guess as to who John is

I only need one guess that's John from Justice Crew she's got it John from Justice Crew. She's got it. John from Justice Crew is one of the Wiggles. Recognise him straight away. He's one of the twins. He is the muscly Wiggle. You know how all the Wiggles have got their thing?

Like Emma loves ballet and Lockie loves to sleep. I don't know that because I don't have a kid. John loves to work out. Is he? He's the muscly Wiggle. What are the know that because I don't have a kid. John loves to work out. Is he? He's the muscly wiggle. What are the other wiggles like? I'm interested now. The new ones.

I didn't investigate any of the new ones. I'm just worried about John from Justice Crew. Is there a gaming wiggle? I don't like the wiggles that much. I'm not deep diving that far into it, okay? No, there's time. Lucky I got all that information. There'll be time.

Can you imagine how lit the wiggles dance moves are going to be now that the Justice crew are in there? Can you imagine, you know, that Wiggle that likes to work out where he's like, this is how you make a protein shake. Chop banana, chop banana, but not too much. Not too much.

Quite a lot of fructose in there. Yeah, you don't want too much banana. The ZM Podcast Network. Always good to, you know, reassess your life. Depends what they are though. Yeah. You know? Yeah. I don't want to hang tea bags on the line. Look, you know, reassess your life. Depends what they are, though. Yeah. You know?

Yeah. I don't want to hang tea bags on the line. Look, yeah, some people do that. People do it. Do you remember the woman, I think we talked about her, because she's on that show. They do a show where they talk about people who are the biggest cheapskates in the world.

Oh, okay, yeah. And there was the woman who, to save money on power, she used to take, she had one light bulb and she used to take the light bulb from room to room. That's dumb because it's not the light bulb that uses the power. Like, fill your roof. I guess she saved money on purchasing light bulbs, right? Yeah. But the risk of breaking it every time you move it.

It's really bad. Anyway, I feel like this next story takes the cake from that woman. Okay. But maybe you'll disagree. Before you tell me what it is, is it a money-saving hack that you're willing to put into play in your own life? Look, I'm going to say it's not my cup of tea. Okay.

I'm going to talk about this woman first, but then we'll get to the real nitty-gritty of it. So this woman, she lives in New York City, and she said she's been doing lots of things her entire life to save money. Yep. One of the things she does is she doesn't buy furniture. She doesn't buy furniture. She picks up anything she can off the side of the road,

and that's what her entire apartment is filled with. Okay. So she's recycling. Shebby chic. Which I was like, road and that's what her entire apartment is filled with. Okay. So she's recycling. Shebby chic. Which I was like, okay, that's cool. You get a dresser here and a TV cabinet there. But then it got to the part where she talks about how her bed is made up of a bunch of old yoga mats stacked in a pile.

Is she? Okay. And her dining room table is a stack of old magazines. Yeah, wow. She's taken it to extremes. Is she poor or is she just very, very frugal? She's very frugal. Right.

Probably too frugal in my opinion because the savings don't stop there. She says she avoids cooking to keep her energy bills low. She never cooks. So she just eats foods that don't have to be cooked. Really? Yes. Like cereal? Yes.

But then cereal, you've got to keep your milk in the fridge. Well, I think she has the fridge. Maybe has the fridge. I hope she treats herself to a fridge. She said she hasn't done any. Begrudgingly, every time she opens the door, she's like, quick, quick, quick, quick, get it out. Close the door, close the door, close the door.

She hasn't done laundry in three years. She washes her clothes in the shower. I've heard about that, showering in your clothes. Which, I mean, yeah, people can do that. Yeah. But. No, they can't, by the way. That was a joke.

You can't. I mean, you know, what if you don't have a washing machine? Well, you can wash your clothes in the shower, but showering in your clothes is not a. Oh, don't shower in your clothes. That's not good. Yeah. But that all aside, right, so that's all great.

It's this one thing she does where I don't think I can get on board with. Okay. We've got some audio. I don't know if they've put it on the page there for you. And it should be there somewhere where she's talking about this one thing that she does to save money. I don't use toilet paper. I just use water and soap to clean myself off after going to the bathroom. I take this water bottle that I have and I rinse myself off. If I just urinate, I'm done with that. And then I dry myself off with the paper towels I have. If I took a dump, then I also grab soap, wipe myself down with the soap,

and then I take the water and rinse off the soap. I don't believe in spending money on something that you're just going to throw away. Um, what? You know where she gets, because I was confused. Does she have a cloth? Well, no, there's no cloth. And I was like, wait, if she's using paper towels, that's the same as using toilet paper.

Just use toilet paper. So I looked into it. Oh, she's taking free paper towels from a restaurant? She said when she's out and about and she uses a public toilet, if she's drying her hands in a public bathroom, she uses the paper, she keeps the paper towel she's dried her hands on and takes it home. Right. I'd like to shout

this woman like a 12 pack of Purex. If you can get her details, I'd like to send her a care package with some toilet paper in it. I'll pitch in. Yeah, yeah. I'll definitely put in for that. And a cooked meal because there's no way to live. I understand times are tough

but there is no way to live. You can save are tough, but there is no way to love. You can save money elsewhere. I don't want to shake her hand, though. The ZM Podcast Network. It's my birthday, it's my birthday. Free and clean. Birthday banger. Here we go, birthday banger for a Tuesday,

I don't get home till really late. I've been trying to cook for two kids and a partner. And just thinking about it, right? Yeah. Yeah, no one wants to go home and think about food when you've been around food. Can you imagine, Gabby has to do, like, you know when you go shopping and it's kind of fun because you do it once. Imagine doing it, like, thousands of times.

I don't know about you guys. That song tastes like fairy floss to me. It's the music video. Oh, that's why. She's literally naked on a cloud full of candy floss. That makes sense. Yeah. They really got you with the subtle branding there, didn't they?

Yeah, they got me good on that one. What about you, Gabby? You like a bit of Katy Perry? Yeah, I love it. My kids are currently dancing at the moment to the radio. That's huge. Okay, we've got to pick a winner out of those three.

That wasn't live. We'll just go. Yeah, yeah. Guys, who's ready to play? Who wants to be a millionaire? Me, me, me, me, me, me. It's the music for this show, isn't it? It's everything about it. The suspense, the lighting, the set.

It's such a great concept. It's a good concept and there's a story out today about what people are calling the worst and hardest question ever on Who Wants to be a millionaire. Okay. Based on how much it was worth.

Right. So there's a guy named Glenn Bunn. He's from the UK. He was on the UK version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire with Jeremy Clarkson Hosett. And he'd won 32,000 pounds. He'd won that amount. Yep. And he came back to try for 64.

Okay. So this is the 64,000 pound question. All right. Right? And are you ready for it? Oh, well, should we bring it? Can I bring in a team? Is that okay?

You can bring in a team. Can I phone a friend? You can phone a friend. You can do whatever you want. Actually, I don't know if I need to phone a friend yet. Let me see if I can answer it without them. Let's go first. Okay.

Are you ready to play for £64,000? I'm ready. And your question is, from the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the best actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters? Oh, my God, that's confusing. Is it A, G, B, K, C, M, or D, W? Can I request to hear the question one more time?

Of course. From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which of these letters? Is it A, G, B, K, or C, M, or D, W? I will use one of my lifelines and I will phone a friend. Okay, you're welcome to phone a friend. Anastasia and Ella, I'd like to phone you guys.

No, you can

Stab in the dark. Absolutely. G. W. W. Was there a W? Yeah. D, W. Oh, D, W. I'm going to go C. You're Was it a W? Yeah. D-W.

Oh, D-W. I'm going to go C. You're going to go C-M. Oh, C-M, yeah. Then I'll go D-W. All right, so you're locking in W-M, and that's it? Sure. Yeah, that's it.

Surely one of us goes G. Okay, I'll go G. Go G, yeah, okay. The answer is... So I was pausing. Isn't that what they do on the show? Only if they're going to an air break. Oh, right.

I'm going to tell you right after. No, tell us what the goddamn thing is. Actually, I don't care. It's just such a stupid question. The answer was A, G. You were right the first time. The ZM Podcast Network. What's our cooking thing we're doing this lockdown?

Last time it was sourdough, and the time before that it was banana bread. What are we doing? What about when they did that coffee, that coffee thing they were doing? Oh, the magic milky whiskey. I made those. They were good. Yeah, right magic. Whipped coffee. Milky, whiskey. Yeah. I made those. They were good.

Yeah, right. Can I propose that this lockdown we do potatoes? Yeah, I love potatoes. Perfect our potato recipe. I think I do a pretty good roast potato. But it's all about the crunch. Nah, just oil, but I use flour as well. I parboil them and I coat them in flour before I boil them.

Right, right, okay. It gives them like a crunchy outside. Yeah. This is a recipe for what's gives them like a crunchy outside. Yeah. This is the recipe for what's being called the world's crispiest potato because it's all about the crunch. We've pulled this off TikTok. I've got to admit, it seems crunchier when you're watching the video, so you'll have to believe me that this is.

Okay, ready? We'll picture it. Yeah, I've turned it right up here. That's all right. That's a single bite. A single bite of the potato. You want to give that a go? Kind of sounds like something else.

To eat... Does it? I don't get crunchy potato from that. I get like... Well, it is. Just believe me that it's crunchy as hell potato. So that is the recipe for... 15 hour roast potatoes

15 hours but you've got time it's lockdown nah why don't we try a 15 hour roast potato nah I don't have that much time you do

you literally do but for just if it was like a slow roasted like lamb yeah it's just the side shank curry yeah it's just the side

I'd be in well let me talk you through what it takes obviously potato Like lamb shank curry, I'd be in. Well, let me talk you through what it takes. Obviously potato that you've sliced on a mandolin. So it's very, very, very thin. Oh, it's like slices. Okay. A tablespoon of salt. That's fine.

Some vegetable oil. And one cup of rendered beef fat is going into this. Not duck fat, beef fat. Yeah, potatoes love the fat, don't they? Sucks for the vegans out there. Your potatoes will remain flaccid. Here's how you cook it. Preheat the oven to 130, so not super hot.

Slice the potato really thin and then lay it in a baking tin. Oh, like a potato bake. Like a potato bake, but really thin and then stack it high. So you're going like six, seven centimetres high. Like a potato rosti. Like a potato rosti. This isn't potato rosti. This isn't roasted potatoes. No, this is roast potato. Nah, I disagree.

Isn't a roast potato like a whole potato? I didn't say it was roast potato. I said it was crispy potato. Oh, okay, good. This is the world's crispiest potato. So you've got, sorry, you've sliced your potato. Yep. And then you toss it in the beef fat. Got it.

So it's coated in the fat. Line the pan with something nonstick. Put your potato in. Stack, stack, stack, stack, stack. Cook it in the oven for three hours on 130. Three hours? Three hours. Take it out of the oven.

Put some weight on top of it. I want you to put like cans of tomato on top of it or like a block of cheese something heavy to weigh it down and compress it and then you put it into the fridge for 12 hours and just leave it there for 12 hours I don't know about this you take it out of the fridge

cut it into squares get some vegetable oil boiling at 190 degrees and then you deep fry your potato that you've already cooked and refrigerated for 12 hours. And then when it comes out, it should sound exactly like this. You know what else is super crispy potatoes? Yeah. Scoreboard hash browns.

They take 15 minutes. That's it. Brave. ZM's Brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. They take 15 minutes. That's it.
