Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. ZM3 and Clint. Good afternoon, everybody. Happy Thursday. Welcome to the Brie and Clint Show. Happy Thursday, everyone. I feel like my laptop is about to explode, guys. Oh, you're at that part of the laptop cycle.
Starting point is 00:00:21 The battery, when it's not plugged in with the charger, loses like 5% battery every minute. Yeah, it's very hot. You're at the hot and loud stage of owning a laptop. And then I turn my laptop on this morning and if I click on something, it would take 10 seconds to load anything. Your laptop's going,
Starting point is 00:00:41 Please let me die. What's wrong with it? Please let me die. It's not with it? Please let me die. It's not even that old. It's those dodgy websites that you've been on. Well, I have been on a few, but I mean, that shouldn't affect it this much. It's from 2018. Yeah, no, that's rubbish.
Starting point is 00:00:55 That should still be going. It should still be working. Yeah. God, dodgy. Do you want to get someone in to have a look at it? No, but see, I'm nervous about it. Get a tradie around with a drill who can open it up. A tradie?
Starting point is 00:01:05 I don't know if a tradie... We've got a tradie with a drill and like an air blower, just blow it out inside. I followed this guy on TikTok and it's so mesmerising and all he does is fix iPhones or like any phone. He's amazing, eh? God, it's so interesting. Yeah. And he just knows what it is.
Starting point is 00:01:22 People mail him the phone, eh? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And he just mails the phone fix back to them. He's so clever, yeah. Yeah. Anyway, I'm going to have to mail him this whole laptop. Hey, today on the show, we're going to give away another double pass to Taylor Swift.

Starting point is 00:01:55 with tradie versus lady. We need a tradie and a lady to call through. The ladies are now out to a 10-point lead. The ladies are unstoppable. I don't know. I've got faith in the tradies. 0800 dials at M right now. It's tradie versus lady.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Yes, welcome back to the longest running game on our show, which is tradie versus lady. There's a 10-point deficit that separates the two teams.

Starting point is 00:05:00 That's the saying. $50 cash from KFC. Let's talk my favourite topic. Which accent is the hottest? I do love an accent. Because a survey has been conducted online by a dating website asking people what accents they find the most attractive.
Starting point is 00:05:21 I won't say it in case it is. Just ignore me. A few years ago, the New Zealand accent was number one. I remember that, yeah. And Taika was kind of like the hot thing on the scene at the time. And so all these talk shows were talking to Taika. And they loved his accent. You got the hottest accent in the world.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And he's like, yeah, bro. Which is weird because New Zealand and Australia usually get a lot of crap for our accent. Yeah, we get called bogan, I think. Bogan or a bit slow. Yeah, sounds about right. Well, 2,000 people were surveyed. The overall, do you want to know the overall most popular accent? Yeah, I do.
Starting point is 00:05:55 It's a Thai. Is this hottest? Hottest, yeah. Hottest, okay. Most popular, hottest accent, a Thai. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Whatever it is, you have to say it in the accent of that country. Okay?
Starting point is 00:06:08 Okay. Ready? Three, two... It's a tie between the British accent and a French accent. That was pretty good for me. I'll give you British. A French accent.
Starting point is 00:06:24 That's a bit more exotic Chinese. Oui, oui. I thought give you British. A French accent. There's a bit more exotic Chinese to me. Oui, oui. I thought that was pretty good. 41% of people voted the British, English and French accents as the hottest. That's a hard one because the British accent, there are so many versions of the British accent.
Starting point is 00:06:40 There really is, eh? Are we talking Geordie accent? Are we talking the Queen's English? There's so many different ones. A Scouser? It does go into more detail about some other, I'll give you a few more stats first. So the second and third most popular
Starting point is 00:06:56 accents were Italian in number three and the Irish. Yeah. Which are both great accents in my opinion. The French accent was seen as the most romantic. Yeah, Which are both great accents in my opinion. The French accent was seen as the most romantic. Yeah, I get that. Most romantic. Italian and Spanish
Starting point is 00:07:12 were right behind them for the most romantic. Italian and Spanish. I feel like Spanish and Italian quite similar. Like the language is quite similar but both so hot. I had an Italian guy cutting my hair for a while.
Starting point is 00:07:27 It doesn't matter what he was talking about. He was like, hey, do you know where my clippers are? Were you questioning everything? Yeah. He's like, how do you want your haircut? And I was like, I don't know. How do you want my haircut? Whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Do whatever you want. What do you think would look nice? I'll just do whatever you want to do. For me, it's hard to go past one of our favourite accents here on this show. Oh, this is my all-time favourite. The Scottish accent. Yeah. There's some Scottish people that kind of say,
Starting point is 00:07:52 Purple burglar alarm. Purple burglar alarm. Purple burglar alarm. Purple burglar alarm. Or my other favourite Scottish accent at the moment. Sorry to any Pink fans, but Pink, get down. Stop. Why? I don't want to see another quadruple backflip we've seen it the scottish accent is so great uh it actually came in i believe second for the most friendly international accent oh yeah which is nice the kiwis or the aussies place at
Starting point is 00:08:20 all um no really i don't believe so. Well, not on the list that I'm looking at. Jeez, that's a big fall from grace, from hottest to shittest. Well, this is just one survey. Yeah. You know, I feel like this is from a dating perspective. Should we conduct our own survey? I think we should. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:38 I really want to get on the phone lines right now and array, a plethora, if you will, of different accents. Yes, please. If you have an accent, I want you to call right now 0800-DIALS-IT-M. Or if you're willing to do an accent, we want you to call 0800-DIALS-IT-M. No, no. If people tell you that you do a really good version of that accent, we'll take that too.
Starting point is 00:08:59 What if we have to guess whether it's a real accent or a fake accent? I was going to say, get people to call me, guess if it's real or not. No racist ones or else we're not doing it. Well, what's a racist one? You know. It's not on us, it's on the people. I don't care. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:09:14 We're not condoning it. What are we doing? We're going to guess. Yes. If they're real accents or not. 0800 dial ZM, call us now. Bree and Clint. A survey's been done and
Starting point is 00:09:25 the most attractive accents apparently, according to these people, the British English accent or the French? Yeah. They're a tie. Survey says British and French. Damn it. British.

Starting point is 00:15:14 All right. Yeah. Let's move on. Put the other nations through. We're about to do the Taylor competition, so sit tight for a second. But we just want to get a gauge of what people should be doing right now, but you're here listening to ZM so you can try and win these Taylor Swift tickets.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Yeah, what are you wagging? What are you skipping so that you can get them? Someone said, my dad is skipping meetings that he's meant to be in so he can help me, and I'm meant to be doing my NCEA homework. Greatest dad award, can I say? What a legend. Someone else said, I should be taking my NCEA homework. Greatest dad award, can I say? What a legend. Someone else said, I should be taking my children to sports right now,
Starting point is 00:15:50 but they can wait. And they will wait. I'm supposed to be walking my dog. Well, you could walk your dog and do this. Yeah. But you need to be focused. You need to be focused, I reckon. How much focus do you...
Starting point is 00:16:03 Oh, mate, if it was me, I'd be all in. I guess you might get hit by a car. I'd be all in. Someone said, my child's wagging horse riding right now so she can try and win. She's wagging horse riding? Yeah, obviously, maybe she...
Starting point is 00:16:17 Horse riding is expensive. Someone else said, I should be at a doctor's appointment right now, but that can wait. I hope it can wait. Taylor Swift comes before your health. I should be walking my goldfish, but Taylor Swift is more important. Oh, come on, mate.
Starting point is 00:16:31 How stupid do you think we are? Goldfish walk themselves. I should be catching a flight, but you know, Taylor comes first. You missed a flight? I don't believe that one. You don't believe that one? I believe this one. I'm missing my AA meeting at 4pm each day to get these bad boys. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Shout out to the recovering alcoholics trying to get to Taylor Swift. Yep. Someone said, I was supposed to be watching my younger brother, but he can wait as well. I should be being a mother to my kids, but instead they're destroying the lounge while I'm sitting next to the radio waiting for Taylor Swift tickets. This one.
Starting point is 00:17:10 I ignored a birthday call to try for tickets. Can't have the phone occupied. No, you cannot. No. Yeah. You ignored a birthday call. It was your birthday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Or is it someone else's birthday? Were they calling you so you could say happy birthday to them? Yeah, that doesn't make sense, does it? Well, it's your birthday. Yeah. Or is it someone else's birthday? Were they calling you so you could say happy birthday to them? Yeah, that doesn't make sense, does it? I was supposed to be watching my younger brother, but he can wait. Did you read that one? Yeah. I don't know if he can wait. I mean, it depends how old he is.
Starting point is 00:17:35 If he's 14, he'll be fine. Pop him on a leash just to make sure we're all good. Someone said, I'm a high school teacher and I paused my midday lessons to listen for the second song. The kids at my school are just as invested as I am to win the tickets. A lot of meetings being skipped. Can I just say as an employer, I reckon avoid scheduling meetings between 3.45 and 4.15 for the next three weeks. I just think it's better for productivity. I love this one.
Starting point is 00:18:02 I should be running my business but leaving early to get home to listen and call for my adult daughters. I made 101 calls on one day. Yes. That's best mum award right there. I took the day off work with quote on quote severe back pain. I like that you said severe as well. Yeah, not just back pain, it's severe. Severe back pain means that you could possibly take tomorrow off as well. Yeah, not just back pain. It's severe. Severe back pain means that you could possibly take tomorrow off as well. Yeah. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:22:29 The most fun place right now. The entire office is going to Taylor Swift. It was two people who were missing out. Yeah. And boom, she got tickets. Lucky we didn't name that business because you'll know exactly when it's going to be vacant. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Yeah. Hey, show's brought to you by KFC. Let's talk about McDonald's for a second. What's happening at McDonald's? There's a secret that's been revealed. Did you know that if you work at McDonald's for 10 years, you get a gold ring? Like an actual, like real gold or gold, fake gold?
Starting point is 00:23:02 Gold-plated ring with a diamond in it. Really? Yeah. For your long service? It's just been revealed. You can't go out and buy one of these. They're given to staff to recognise long service. Once you hit 10 years, you get to choose between getting the McDonald's gold ring with a diamond in it or the cash equivalent.
Starting point is 00:23:22 I don't know what the cash equivalent is, but I do know that these rings are extremely rare and kind of like a collector's item. They should have an option that it's the cash equivalent, the ring or free McDonald's for life. Yeah, right. You know, like I know for a fact if you work in New Zealand for I think it's longer than 10 years. I think it's a lot longer.
Starting point is 00:23:44 But you get like staff travel for life. So you pay staff prices for life. Is that what it is? If you give a certain amount of service to Air New Zealand, yeah. There's the ring. That's the McDonald's ring. It's like a signet ring with the golden arches on it and a diamond in the bottom. God, it's ugly.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Oh, you don't like it? Nah. Like I'm not going to wear that around. Are you not? Nah. I reckon you would if you worked at McDonald's. Because you'd be like... It's quite a masculine ring. You'd be like a boss. That's the women's one. Is it? Okay, that to me is quite masculine.
Starting point is 00:24:18 The men's one, you can choose whichever one you want, but that one was made for women. The men's one is a square signet ring. Oh. Yeah. Okay. And that one was made for women. The men's one is a square signet ring. Oh. Yeah. Okay. And that one's an oval. I'd probably rather the square.
Starting point is 00:24:28 That one is for sale right now on Facebook Marketplace. Someone in Christchurch is selling it. They're asking $3,000 for it. Three grand. How much is it actually worth in terms of like gold and the diamond? We don't know. Right. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:41 They reckon it's been valued and the valuation they've got for it is $2,200 US. Really? But that's unconfirmed. Yeah. But, I mean, it's worth a lot in the sense that you can't buy one of these. And if it's authentic, you know, the only other way to get one of these rings is to go and work there at McDonald's for 10 years.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Isn't it nice that they do something, you know, like 10 years of service. It's nice that they have something that they do for people that have worked there for that long. I think so. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's a nice thing to do. Like I've heard of people working at companies for 10 years and they get diddly squat.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Yeah. Like zero. Yeah. You'd feel like a bit of a kick in the guts. You'd feel a bit T.O.'d if you got nothing. You just want a morning tea? No, I don't want a morning tea. If I am slaved

Starting point is 00:26:08 Oh, no, no. I know at 100Dials.com, does your work do something for long service? Yeah, what do you get? Might not be for 10 years. Might be for 20 years. Might be for 25 years. Might just be for the five years.
Starting point is 00:26:18 What's the thing that you get if you do a long stint working for your employer? Someone texted through and said, it's 30 years at Air New Zealand for free flights for life. My dad has it. Wow. Free flights for life. Wait, I thought it was free staff travel.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Free flights. I thought it was staff travel for life. Maybe that is the 30-year mark, and then I think staff travel for life maybe is 20 years. Imagine you're back in the dating pool. You're in your later years, and you meet a nice widower. You're like, what are you doing? He's like, I work for Air New Zealand.

Starting point is 00:31:24 Building. It is great. It's season three? Yeah. Season three. I want to talk about something I heard on the radio this morning, which threw me quite a lot. Okay. And it was a term or a phrase of something that I have thought I've been saying right my whole life.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Yeah. And I'm pretty sure you say it the same as me. Yep. But I heard a radio ad that said it differently. Right. So the term I'm talking about is driver's license. Driver's license. No, Olivia Rodrigo, driver's license.
Starting point is 00:31:58 The thing you have to show to get into a bar, driver's license. Your driver's license. Driver's license. That's what it's called. Yeah. The song from Olivia Rodrigo That's what it's called. Yeah. The song from Olivia Rodrigo is called Driver's Licence. Yeah. So tell me why this ad that we're about to play says it like this.
Starting point is 00:32:16 It's quick and easy to do online. You just need your New Zealand driver licence or passport. It's my driver licence, bub. Fetch. Oh, he doubled down on it. He doubled down. So if my ears serve me correctly, that's Orange Guy. It is.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Who does the election stuff. He wants to get you registered for the election. Yeah. So that's a government ad. It's a government ad. So surely. So that would have to have gone through some hands and they will have to have the terminology correct.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Who's calling it though a driver licence? It sounds so weird. I also know the voice of Orange Guy is David Koryos. David Koryos, yeah. Yeah. I wonder if he questioned it.
Starting point is 00:32:59 It's so weird. One more time, one more time. It's quick and easy to do online. You just need your New Zealand driver licence or passport. Fetch my driver licence, pup. Fetch. Fetch my driver licence, pup. We need to investigate this.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Producer Claude, you're on the case. What do you think? Are you weighing in on this? Driver's licence or driver licence? I've always said driver's licence. Driver's licence. Yeah, that's just what it is, right? Your firearms licence.
Starting point is 00:33:24 Yeah. Your driver's licence. It's the licence belonging to the driver. Your forklift's license. Driver's license? Yeah. That's just what it is, right? Your firearms license. Yeah. Your driver's license. It's the license belonging to the driver. Your forklift's license. But I did do some research. Okay. And I've gone, firstly I went to the Waka Ko Tahi website because I was like, they'll know. They'll know what it is. They're the ones who give you your
Starting point is 00:33:38 driver license. Yeah, and I pulled up the page and the title is driver licenses. What? I was like, that could be a typo. There could be 16 typos on here. Maybe that's wrong. Driver license. So I've just grabbed producer Ella's license. Wait, you've got a license?
Starting point is 00:33:54 It's got her learner's license. Oh, her learner's. Okay, learner's, yeah. And along the top, it says New Zealand driver license. What is going on? What is going on? Blew my mind. What is going on? What is going on? Blew my mind. What is going on?
Starting point is 00:34:07 Driver's licence? Surely it's a driver's licence. Why have we been saying driver's licence? Olivia Rodrigo's got it wrong then too. Someone needs to get in touch. She's going to have to go, I got my driver licence last week. Just sounds wrong.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I got my driver... Yeah, it doesn't sound right. It's quick and easy to do online. You just need your New Zealand driver licence or passport. It's my driver licence, pub. Fetch. Oh, this has thrown me big time. What does the government know?
Starting point is 00:34:33 This has really thrown me. What do they know? I mean, what do they know? I say we head to Parliament, we take some tents and we camp out on the front lawn. Let's storm the beehive. Until they come out and talk to us and change the Waka Kotahi website from driver licence to driver's licence
Starting point is 00:34:50 because it feels too weird coming out of my mouth. So strange. Really, really thrown me. Someone on the text machine said the Mandela effect. Yeah, right. Fuzzy. Let's play What's the Plot? Once upon a time,

Starting point is 00:43:17 Absolute banger. Loved it. Loved it. Don't focus on the fact that it's 14 years old. That'll just make you feel depressed. Why do you always have to put the number on it? Because the numbers are starting to shock me. That's why.
Starting point is 00:43:29 No, you're... It's starting to shock me. Okay, well, stop it. Stop it. Okay, I'll pretend. Okay, that song, it's a freshie from LaRue. There you go, see? That's a hot new track from pop artist LaRue.
Starting point is 00:43:41 She's new on the scene. How hard was that? Her CD is out in stores now. Not hard at all. Hey, let's talk about our favourite topic here at ZM for a second. Golf. I'm a big golf fan. Are you?
Starting point is 00:43:54 Yeah, big golf fan. Okay. Watched that series on Netflix and I was hooked. What's your handicap? I reckon two under par. Is it? Yeah, probably about that. Nice.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I'm quite a good driver. I can drive the ball real far. Can you? Yeah, probably about that. Nice. I'm quite a good driver. I can drive the ball real far. Can you? About 800 or 900 yards, actually. Yeah. I have no idea. I'm close. No, you did well for a bet, though.
Starting point is 00:44:13 Okay, good. No, I want to talk about golf because there's this story doing the rounds about an Aussie golfer who is actually going to miss the birth of his fifth child so he can go and chase this big prize money at this golf tournament. He's missing the birth of his child so he can play golf? Literally. That's literally the story. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:36 So the Aussie golfer said that his wife was actually the one that gave him permission to go and chase the prize money at this particular golf tournament. So if you've ever heard of a guy called Jason Day, that's the golfer I'm talking about. He's a proper golfer, right? He's like a pro golfer. He's on the PGA Tour.
Starting point is 00:45:01 Yes, proper pro golfer. He's not some guy. No, no, no, no. He's not some amateur golfer. Some weekend bettler who's missing the birth of his kid. I've planned this golf trip with the boys for 12 months. Nah, he's a proper pro golfer. Anyway, it's their fifth baby,
Starting point is 00:45:19 and apparently the prize money at this tournament that he's about to go play, guess how much? A million dollars. $28 million. Well, he does have five kids. He'll need every penny of it. His missus said, I give you permission. Yeah, wow.
Starting point is 00:45:38 I give you permission to go to this tournament because I think the tournament goes for a week. He must be in good form at the moment. Because if he didn't have a chance of winning it you'd be like, you're not going anywhere, bucko. And nor would he want to. I don't believe any man wants to miss the birth of a child. It's the fifth. You've seen one, you've
Starting point is 00:45:56 seen them all. No. Yeah. No. Seen one, seen them all. Not true. By the fifth you're like, oh, I get the idea. He did miss the birth of his, he didn't miss the birth of his first child. He missed a golf tournament so he could be there. So there you go. Fifth one.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Doesn't matter by the fifth. Imagine being the kid and growing up and knowing that dad skipped your birth so he could go and play golf. Oh, you don't care. No, you hold it over dad all the time. You won't know. Well, you will because radio stations around the world are talking about it. So it'll get back to you eventually.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Well, he won't care if he wins $28 million. Imagine if he wins it. And then he leaves however many million to his son or his daughter. Imagine if he wins it and then there's video footage of him winning it and then when the kid grows up, they're watching highlight footage of Dad playing. They're like, wait a second. They check the date on the video. They're like, that's the day I was was born things would have to line up perfectly i feel like he'll he'll be hoping he just gets away
Starting point is 00:46:50 with it he's essentially missed the birth for work put the golf bit aside he's missed it for work yes it's work i get it yeah work work work fun work i thought we could ask people this afternoon though there'd definitely be people out there that miss the birth, and I want to know the reason why. Yeah. You need to, like, come forward, take responsibility, tell us why you miss the birth of, it doesn't matter what number child.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Yeah. They're all important. Tell us why you miss the birth of your child. 0800 dials at M, or you can text us on 9696. The good reasons and the bad reasons. The good and the bad. Yeah. Bree and Clint. why you missed the birth of your child, 0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696. The good reasons and the bad reasons. The good and the bad. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Brianne Clint. Okay, so we want to know why you missed the birth or why did they miss the birth. Anne's here. Hi, Anne. Hi, Anne. Hello. Who missed the birth, Anne? My husband missed the birth.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Oh, Anne. How long ago? First of all, how long ago was it, Anne? It'll be 31 years. I can still hear it in your voice. 31 years, I can still hear it in your voice that you had not let it go. It's not so much me. It's a daughter, and she's a middle child, so she reminds him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I know that feeling. He was what? He was in police college, and the last flight out was about 9 o'clock at night, and about quarter past, I'd said to him, I think I'm in labour. Yeah. And, yep, she was born. Oh, so it was too late for him to get the last flight.
Starting point is 00:48:13 You went into labour just after the last flight. Oh, couldn't you have held on, Anne? That's what he said. Couldn't you have got a police, like, envoy to race him to the hospital or something like that? Surely there's some privileges. Oh, we're just losing you a bit there. Anyway, thank you, Anne. We appreciate it. Thank you, Anne.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Let's talk to Manish. Hi, Manish. Hi, Manish. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Manish, who missed the birth? It was my granddad in the 50s. He missed actually two of the births of his kids. He played for a rugby club in Ticawiti, and he had to show up to training in order to get to start on the Saturday.
Starting point is 00:48:54 So when my grandma went to labor, he, like, rung the neighbor and said, hey, wife's going to labor. You need to take her to the hospital because I need to go to rugby training or else I don't get to start on Saturday. Get off the grass. Joking on Saturday. Get off the grass. Joking, man. Get off the grass. He would have been more beat up from playing a rugby game,
Starting point is 00:49:11 I'll tell you that for free. She would have absolutely ripped him a new one. He didn't give her an option. He was like, this is what it is. I've taught you alternate transport. I lost the rugby training. Twice. You said he did this twice.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Yeah. Red flag. Your granddad was this twice. Yeah. Red flag. Your granddad was a walking red flag, Manish. Did he make it to the All Blacks or anything? Was it worth it? He actually played in the first 15 with Colin Meade, because obviously being from Sigawitzi and Stanley. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:41 And he went on to being a Waikato rugby president. Okay. Okay, there's some cred there. I get it. No All Blacks, it wasn't worth it. Thanks, Manish. We appreciate it. Thanks, Manish.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Someone texted through and said, my dad wasn't at either mine or my sister's birth. Are we talking to that person? That's you, right, Brock? Yeah, I'm here. Did your dad not make it to either of yours or your sister's birth? How come? Nah, he didn't.
Starting point is 00:50:10 He thought milking the cows was way more important than even being in the hospital. He was milking the cows? Yeah. Do you let him live it down, Brock, or do you hassle him about it? No, we kind of try to piss out of him because he's a bit of a pansy when he comes to the hospital. Like, he doesn't do hospitals very well.
Starting point is 00:50:29 He's a pansy when he goes to the hospital. So you're thinking he was scared. He was scared to, like, be there. Does he do the carving with the cows? Can he handle that? No, that's the stupidest thing. He can carve a cow. He hunts. He's, like, your typical dairy farmer, but's the stupidest thing. He can't have a cow, he hunts, he's like your typical dairy farmer,
Starting point is 00:50:46 but he can't stand hospitals. So he can stick a hand all the way up a cow's butt, but he can't handle the birth of his own children. Oh, guys, I'll tell you what, I've seen a cow give birth way worse. I'd much rather see a woman give birth. A cow giving birth is scary stuff, mate. You're like, how is that coming out of that cow? It's humongous.
Starting point is 00:51:08 You poor thing, Brooke. I grew up in a farmer family too, so I understand. I'm surprised my dad was even at the hospital for our births. He's like, I can't come, babe. I've got to milk the apples. I've got lots of packing to do, love. I'd love to be there, but you know. Tick tock okay thanks brooke we appreciate it that's great this one last text yeah uh they said my dad missed my birth he dropped my mum off to the hospital and went back home to his mother-in-law's place to finish off the bacon and eggs she'd cooked him oh these poor women you imagine how angry you would be at your partner?
Starting point is 00:51:45 This person here says, my partner, doctor and midwife missed the birth. I had the baby on my own. Jeez. Must have come too soon. You lucked out there. Brian Clint. Remember earlier this year we talked about the husband calling competition?
Starting point is 00:52:01 I mean, how could I forget? It's a very prestigious event that takes place. Rural women who use a very special pitch in their voice so their voice can cross the paddocks to reach their husband. I believe it takes place in Iowa.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Yeah. And it must predate cell phones because now, why are you still husband? I guess it's probably still easier to husband call them. Probably easier. And on farms, sometimes you don't get reception everywhere. It's back for 2023. Do you want to hear some of the best husband calling of 2023? Yeah, I'd love to.
Starting point is 00:52:36 Harry! Come on! Let's go! We're leaving! John! Where are you? Dinner's ready and they schnitzel. You can't go outside with your underwear on.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Stan! Not today, selective hearing. Matthew! Matthew! Roy! Roy! I don't care if there's schnitzel at home, I'm staying in the field. God.
Starting point is 00:53:06 I am not going home to that. God, I've never, like, had flashbacks more. Like, I grew up in a farming family. Yeah. And my mum used to scream at the top of her lungs. And somehow my dad would hear it. Yeah. Like, it was just ridiculous. I remember a year ago when we talked about this
Starting point is 00:53:28 competition, we actually called my mum, who is a farmer's wife, to see how she would stack up against the competition. We found the audio, haven't we? We have. This is Mama Dice version of husband calling. David! Come on in! Dave! David!
Starting point is 00:53:51 Coo-ee! So good. She's kind of calling him like he's a pig. Soo-ee! No, it's coo-ee. Oh, is it coo-ee? It's an Aboriginal thing. Oh!
Starting point is 00:54:04 Yeah, you go, cooey. Oh, is it cooey? It's an Aboriginal thing. Oh. Yeah, you go cooey. Like that. It actually travels quite far. God, that sounds so much like my childhood. It's actually ridiculous. When you get home tonight, when you pull into the driveway, what I want you to do is just stand outside and just call your partner like that.
Starting point is 00:54:21 I want you to just. Don't worry, they'll definitely come outside. Come on! Come on! Brie and Clint. Everyone, well, every millennial and older will remember the time that Madonna pashed Britney Spears on stage at the MTV VMAs. Why do you always leave out Christina Aguilera?
Starting point is 00:54:44 She pashed her too. Sorry, I apologise. You're right. I'm not the only one. It was a threesome, remember? I'm not the only one that completely forgets that Christina was there. Everyone always forgets Xtina. Somehow she's been erased from the collective memory. She'd be gutted
Starting point is 00:54:59 about that. She'd be like, oh, here we go. I'm so racy. You're right. Let me rephrase. In 2003, Madonna pashed the two hottest pop stars on the planet live on television, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. That's right. And in 2003, three women kissing on TV was mind-blowingly scandalous. So scandalous.
Starting point is 00:55:23 And this is why I think people always forget Christina Aguilera was there. It was so scandalous back in 2003 that I don't think the TV networks knew that was going to happen. No. They didn't. And then when Madonna kissed... Not everybody knew.
Starting point is 00:55:40 No, hardly anyone knew. And then when Madonna kissed Britney first, they didn't take the cameras away fast enough, knew. No, hardly anyone knew. And then when Madonna kissed Britney first, they didn't take the cameras away fast enough, but by the time that she went to kiss Christina, they pulled the cameras away. And that's why Christina gets forgotten, maybe. Yeah, and it went on to Justin Timberlake, who was
Starting point is 00:55:56 Britney's ex, and he was like shaking his head at it. Let me blow your mind. Christina Aguilera was never even meant to be there. Who says? According to a former MTV executive, Madonna originally asked Britney Spears and J-Lo
Starting point is 00:56:16 to do the pass with her on stage. What? Yeah. Ex-MTV president Van Toffler has done an interview with Rolling Stone on Tuesday and he said that Madonna asked J-Lo to do the performance with her but she ended up dropping out because of a scheduling conflict. Or she didn't want to tash it.
Starting point is 00:56:39 Yeah, or she didn't want the smoke that was going to come with it. Yeah. It rattled Madonna so much that she was going to drop the whole performance. She was like, it doesn't make any sense then. This whole thing doesn't make any sense. I organised and orchestrated all this so I could hook up with J-Lo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:54 At the last minute they managed to get Christina to agree to it. How would you feel if you were the last minute call up? Poor Christina. Now not only do people keep forgetting that she was there, she wasn't even the first choice Pash. She wasn't even second choice Pash.
Starting point is 00:57:13 I feel like it makes more sense with Brittany and Christina. I don't know why. In hindsight, it does because we were living in a Brittany versus Christina world. Yeah, exactly. And they were like the same age. They were on like a similar trajectory. Similar vibe.
Starting point is 00:57:26 Yeah. Yeah. So it did end up making more sense. Well, it did too as well because Britney was kind of like still that cookie cutter nice girl and Christina was like, you know, in her Xtina era.
Starting point is 00:57:37 What was JLo in 2003? Hot? She was Jenny from the Block. This song is from 2003. Yeah, JLo was smoking hot is what she was. Well, MTV, I think you know what you need to do
Starting point is 00:57:51 for the 2023 20 year anniversary show. Yes. Four way pash. Because there's nothing more satisfying than a kiss with more than one other person. I've done it.
Starting point is 00:58:06 God, it's fantastic. Every time I've done it, I've been like, God, that's not awkward at all. Play ZM's Brand Clint on Insta, Facebook, TikTok and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Feed by KFC. Get the full menu delivered to your door
