Hey, what's going on?
It's the Brie and Clint Podcast.
Roll call.
Brie Thomasel.
Yep.
Ben McDowell.
Yeah, yep.
No, that's not how you answer the school roll, mate.
You'll go on detention if you give me that shit.
Okay?
Pay attention.
Ooh.
Present.
Yes, Mr. Roberts.
If you didn't run your detention, you're like, yeah, yeah.
You think you would get away without getting a smack bottom?
You'd get a smack bottom.
I don't think any teacher should be smacking anyone's bottom.
Brie Thomasel.
Here, bitch.
Ben McDowell.
Yeah, what's up?
Anastasia McLufan.
Anastasia McLufan?
She's away.
Anastasia Lufan.
Where is Anastasia Lufan. Where is Anastasia Lufan?
Who's that?
Oh, you know what she was doing, sir?
I know what she was doing, sir.
What was she doing?
She was outside having a cigarette with Cynthia around the back of the sheds.
Was she just?
Was she just?
Yep.
Anastasia, what do you have to say for yourself?
No, I actually didn't hear that you guys had started. So I'm really sorry, guys. Oh, sorry. Yep. What do you have to say for yourself? No, I actually, I didn't
hear that you guys had started, so
I'm really sorry, guys. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
As the teacher, is it my job to make sure you're
paying attention, is it? Is that my job?
No, because I can't hear anything out here. It's only through the headphones.
Oh, sorry. Is it my job to make sure you're
wearing your headphones, is it? No, you know what they do?
You know what they do? They don't reach to my other
camera. I get paid. I can be here all
day. I've got nowhere to be.
I've got absolutely nowhere to be.
I love this.
I actually love this.
I can stay 20 minutes.
I have to stay after school.
I've got to be here anyway.
You might as well stay.
I've got to do reports.
You guys can stay here while I mark reports.
I've got five computer screens and my headphones only reach to the third computer.
And whose fault is that?
Well, I should probably sort that, shouldn't I?
Correct.
You know, all I hear is excuses.
Actually, do you know what I do?
No, I'm sick of you.
Go see the principal.
You're getting a smack bottom.
Go see that you're getting the cane.
I think she's Australian, that Aussie TikToker
that does the teacher impressions on TikTok.
Stop trying to create a diversion.
You're so good.
Did you guys have the cane?
Did you guys have the canes?
No.
Yeah, you would have at some point.
Oh, not while we were at school.
Not while we were alive.
No, but that's not what I said.
I said, did you guys have the cane in New Zealand?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My dad got the cane at school.
I think everyone's dad did.
Did he like it?
No.
What did your parents hit you with? what did your parents use to hit your hand
my nan used a shoe oh yeah oh no that was her weapon of choice and she's and you know what she
always used to say this shoe bites this shoe bites and i was terrified of the shoe she missed an
opportunity there if you did something wrong she could go i know you did it and you'll go no i
didn't she'll go well if the shoe fits it. And you'll go, no, I didn't.
She'll go, well, if the shoe fits.
And then she'd chase you with the shoe.
Smash her.
And then my mum and dad.
No weapons in my family, just hand.
Not ever a weapon.
No, no, just hand.
My friend's parents had a wooden spoon.
Is it an actual dedicated wooden spoon?
Or is it just any old spoon from the draw?
No, it hung on the wall.
Oh, see, that's not savory.
I think it was more the threat of it.
That's not savory.
And so you could see it, and it was the idea of it being there.
So they could go, don't make me get the wooden spoon.
And I don't know if they ever actually used it,
but it was there as a ceremonial.
They used it.
Did you get soap?
Soap?
What?
Did you get soap?
Oh, soap in the mouth?
No, I never got that.
We had the threat of it
We would be crying
She never actually squirted it
It was just enough to
Like she'd put it in your mouth
And you could taste
You know what my mum said to me one time
She goes you know when I knew
That you were too old to be smacked
When you said you liked it
No I didn't say I liked it
She would smack me
When you could ask for it No she, I didn't say I liked it. She would smack me. When you could ask for it.
No, she'd smack me and I'd go, is that it?
And then she'd go, she'd look at me and she'd hit me harder.
I'd go, is that all you got?
It's not even hard.
And then she goes, I knew from that point on.
That you were a psychopath.
That I could not smack you anymore.
Is the anti-smacking bill a thing?
Yeah, it's illegal to smack your kids now.
Is that just in New Zealand?
Well, yeah, I haven't checked any child abuse laws in other countries.
I mean, that's in public.
Do you just have to give them time out now if they're naughty?
Yeah.
Is it just you can't smack them in public, is it?
Don't smack your kids.
You can't unconceitually smack.
Have we?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I mean, we all turned out all right.
Yeah.
Speak for yourself.
Have you met Ben?
Ben's fine.
And he's the one that didn't get smacked.
Did Ben not get smacked?
Not yet.
Did you get smacked in your family?
No, not that I remember.
You never got smacked.
Whoa.
No wonder you're so strange.
I feel like I'd...
I'll ignore that.
He's from a family of progressive teachers.
Yeah, that's true.
Oh.
I feel like you did, but you can't remember.
I think you'd remember it.
I remember soap.
Like on a towel, a wet towel, like a flannel.
Oh, was that to wash your mouth out?
Oh, and they put that in your mouth.
That was to clean his moustache.
Yeah.
Did you get smacked, Anastasia?
Yeah, of course. Not much. My older sister, she was more naughty. We only get smacked, Anastasia? Yeah, of course.
Not much.
My older sister,
she was more naughty.
We only got smacked
when I was really, really bad.
It's just a whack on the bottom.
In all honesty,
I don't actually think it was hard.
I think it was, as a kid...
My parents never smacked us
to the point where it was really bad.
No, no, it bruised really bad.
I think it's just the scare factor.
It's also the shame.
And it was very spreadable.
And it's the threat of it, again.
It's also the threat and the shame of being smacked.
Like, you don't want to get to the point where you get smacked
because you know that that's where you've really done something wrong.
But, yeah, it was never...
My dad moved into, when I was too old to be smacked on the bottom,
he moved into put your hand out and I'll smack you on the back of the hand.
God, that hurt
I didn't misbehave again after that
Because I was so scared
It hurt way more than being smacked on the back
Again it's the threat of it too
Yeah it was terrifying
It's like walking the plank because you have to do it
And it was so embarrassing
He'd be like put your hand out
I'd be like no
I remember it just became like food frets
Like you're not allowed
Like mum will make you a stew for dinner or whatever.
Oh, we never got those.
What, if you misbehave, mum will make you a stew for dinner?
Like I'd have to have sausages or something.
Oh, I'm scared.
I'm scared.
Please don't make me eat mum's stew.
You had to sit at the table and she'd cook you
like everyone would have pizza or something.
Oh, that's actually quite good.
And you'd have to have it with sausages.
Yeah.
Sad on mum who has to do extra cooking. Or you'd have to go to extra cool no we do we do now but
back there if everyone was having pizza and you had to have a sausage that's
good that's good because you're not actually abusing the child you're
feeding them I feel like we're showing our age these days they just take the
Wi-Fi password away oh yeah take the charger for their devices. It's so easy. Just the threat of
I'll change the Wi-Fi password
and I feel like kids
are behind.
But I reckon it's only
useful to about the age nine
and then the kid gets
better at computers than you
and they just hack
the mainframe
and they're like,
I am the Wi-Fi.
Once they get a COVID vaccine
then they will be able
to control.
Yeah, then they'll have 5G.
They have full control of the network.
Can't wait.
We don't believe this, by the way.
You just hear your kid at dinner time.
Dial up, kid.
Dial up.
We've got some free time before,
because we're recording this before the show today.
Do you guys want to do a few more would you rathers?
Yeah, go on.
All right.
Yep.
Um, would you rather have super sensitive taste or super sensitive hearing?
Definitely hearing.
Now both have got cons.
Taste.
Taste.
So you can taste every ingredient in something, which means if it's not cooked really well,
it'll taste shit to you.
Everything.
Like.
Taste. If something's not cooked well
Can you imagine how annoying it would be
To hear everything
True you can control what you eat
You can't control what you hear
You couldn't go to a concert
Yeah you can control what goes into your mouth
Yeah
You couldn't go to a concert
You couldn't like do heaps of things
Okay yeah
Taste, taste, taste
Anastasia
Yeah I was probably going to be sound,
but Bree just explained it well enough that I'm going to go taste too.
I think the fact of you can't control it.
You couldn't be front left anymore, Anastasia.
You imagine going to a movie.
I'm not a front left gal.
It's so loud when you go to the movies, which is awesome.
I'm a back and boogie.
For normal hearing, but you couldn't go.
Would you rather have constant dry eyes or a constant runny nose?
Dry eyes.
As someone who has a constant runny nose.
I've got a constant runny nose.
I hate runny nose.
And it's shit.
I don't know what dry eyes are.
I don't know what dry eyes are.
I've heard, I've never had that.
But dry eyes, people who wear contacts get that a lot.
Yeah.
It's from obviously having that foreign thing in your eye.
Apparently it's horrible
and your eyes really hurt.
How shit are dry lips, by the way?
I don't get them very often. I get dry lips 24-7.
Do you know I have a theory on that?
Because you use lip balm, right? I reckon
once you start using lip balm, your body gets
addicted to it and you can't function without it.
But I don't use it all the time.
I reckon it's because I don't drink enough water.
That's what I reckon it's from.
Would you rather have out-of-control body hair
or a strong, pungent body odour?
Out-of-control body hair.
No.
You can cover that up.
That's disgusting.
I can't pick between those.
So strong, pungent body odour.
You can shower and you can use deodorant,
but it's going to constantly be a problem for you.
And out-of-control body hair, you can shave and you can cover it up,
but it grows back really fast.
Doesn't matter.
That's a hard question, mate.
I'd rather have hairy armpits than be smelt from a mile away.
You can't choose neither.
I can't pick.
That's a shit one because they're both bad.
These are hard ones.
These are meant to be hard.
I think odour because you can bring deodorant to work.
Nah.
Nah.
I don't think hairy people are yuck,
but people who smell, I'm like, ooh, you're yuck.
Yep.
That's exactly right.
Hairy people, I'm like, ooh, what a hairy beast.
That's the easiest word you're asking me.
But you can still be clean.
You could be clean if you were really hairy.
But if you smell bad.
Okay, wait.
How hairy?
I guess it's different for men and women, right?
As for a woman.
Not on your face.
Oh. But everywhere in our body. You know how ridiculed we would get? I guess it's different for men and women right as for a woman not on your face oh
but everywhere
in our body
you know how
ridiculed we would get
you'd have
you'd have
hairy man chest
hairy back
odour
really
yeah
oh I would have
so thought you'd be the hair
it goes
body odour
like oh no
what about
you'd have a hairy
you'd have a hairy chest
hairy stomach
hairy back
okay what's more important
than you
general hygiene or appearances?
It's hygiene over appearances every time.
Okay.
Odour.
Would you rather lose all of your money and valuables
or all of the pictures you've ever taken?
Money, valuables.
Really?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
Because my valuables are my memories and my pictures. Really? Yeah. Wow.
Because my valuables are my memories and my pictures.
Fuck, she got us.
You can always get more valuables in money.
I agree, actually. You can't get more pictures.
Are the pictures gone from your iPad?
I agree.
As someone with 12,000 photos of my cats and kids.
Yeah.
And you know why?
I literally thought about this the other day.
You can earn more money.
You can earn more money. You can earn more money.
You can buy more things.
You can't recreate those photos.
And, you know, when I was, I think, 21, I had someone break into my house
and they stole so much of my, like, valuables and belongings.
And the thing I was most devastated about was they stole my laptop.
With your photos on it.
That had literally all my photos from like grade 9 through to like 21.
And I was devastated.
And I sit there and I wonder sometimes.
I'm like, I wonder what photos are in there.
So there's like no memories for me for that whole period of my life.
The real devastating bit is those photos are on the cloud,
but no one knows how the cloud works.
No, this was before the cloud.
This is a version of that one.
Would you rather find true love or a suitcase with $5 million inside?
True love.
Really?
Yeah.
Or $5 million?
True love.
I'd take the $5 million.
No, you wouldn't, Anastasia.
You'd take true love. No, I've experienced money.
I haven't experienced true love.
True.
Anastasia's going on the proviso that she might...
Wouldn't you want the one that you haven't experienced?
No, she's going on the idea that she might not like true love.
But she knows she likes money.
Everyone likes true love.
That's the point.
Do you know what true love is?
What?
When you buy 100 Krispy Kreme donuts
and you just sleep on the pile of Krispy Kreme donuts.
That's not true love.
That's diabetes.
That's true happiness.
Would you rather have chapped lips that never heal or terrible dandruff that can't be treated?
Dandruff doesn't hurt.
Dandruff.
Dandruff doesn't hurt.
Think about a time in your life where you've had severely chapped.
And it is one of the worst pains.
Yeah.
It's so bad.
And both of those are visible and look shit.
But at least dandruff doesn't hurt.
Yeah.
Yeah, dandruff.
Dandruff.
And you can just buy more head and shoulders.
You can wear a hat.
Oh, I had to wean myself off head and shoulders, by the way.
Headfish.
Not good for you.
Does that stuff work?
I don't know.
Well, yeah, it does.
But then you end up
Using it every day
And you're not supposed to
I think
Doesn't it make your scalp
Real oily?
Either way
I've gotten off it
Anything Sofia Vergara
Tells me to buy
Yeah she was a big part of it
She was hot
But also remember that
She was getting paid
Probably six million for that
I'm pretty sure that was
Didn't that break records
For like one of the biggest
Endorsements or something Back in the day, like five, ten years ago?
Would you rather be alone for the rest of your life or constantly be surrounded by annoying people?
Well, I mean, you guys have to hang out with me every day, so.
I feel like I'm already the latter, so I've got no choice.
Would you rather be locked in a room, oh, this is like psychological torture.
Would you rather be locked in a room that is constantly dark for a week or a room that is constantly bright for a week?
Bright.
Same.
I can sleep through light.
Yeah, if you're tired enough, you'll sleep.
Oh, that one's way too dark.
I'm not doing that one.
What was it?
You've got to do it now.
It's shit.
I don't want to discuss it if I say it.
What is it?
Would you rather accidentally be responsible for the death of a child
or be responsible for the death of three adults?
I told you I didn't want to say it.
Oh, good one, Clint.
Now we're going to finish.
Good one.
Why would you bring that up?
You know what?
Now we have to end.
Now we have to end on that shit one.
Oh, now we have to end on that awful shit note.

man, you must be really hitting the wall right about now.
But how good.
Good stuff.
We won.
Yay.
Yeah, I definitely watched and loved every second of it.
How depressed would you be if you stayed up all night to watch the cricket
and we lost?
That would suck.
You wouldn't have the adrenaline high to get you through.
That's how I felt two weeks ago when I watched the first Origin game.
That's right.
And you guys got pumped.
I was like, I am going to bed.
Second game of Origin on Sunday too.

We'd love to have you.
Bree and Clint.
There's a saying which I think is a little bit underused,
but I think it's a really good descriptive saying,
and the saying is, oh, you're really breaking my balls.
Oh, that really breaks my balls.
What's the girl version?
Is there a girl version of that?
Great question.
You're really twisting my nipples. You're really twisting my nipples.
You're really twisting my nip.
Yeah.
Okay, to be inclusive, we have to include both sayings here,
and you can choose whether you would like to say something.
You're really twisting my tatas.
You're really...
Let's go with that.
Twisting my tatas?
Yeah.
It's got a ring to it because, you know, it's got the...
What's it called?
You're really bongoing my boobies.
Where it's like the...
Automatapaya.
Is it Automata Paya?
Alliteration.
No, it's alliteration.
I knew it was one of them.
I had one of those moments where they're just little things, you know, that break your balls.
And I thought we could go around the room just like a cathartic, get it off your chest
and we can all say the thing that's breaking our balls at the moment.
Or what did you say?
Twisting our tatas.
Yeah, twisting my tatas.
I'll go first.
So I had one.
You know when you have an item of clothing
that you just really love
and you basically live
in that item of clothing?
I've got that pair
of track pants.
I've got the perfect
pair of track pants
and you know what I did?
I've had them for two years.
They're the best track pants.
Oh no.
Do you know what I did?
You shit yourself.
No, I didn't shit myself.
Can you not?
Well, that would have been
a disaster.
Can you not?
That would have been a disaster because you've got to throw those out.
Yeah, it would have been a disaster.
But you know what?
At least they'd be salvageable.
I could have put them in a bucket of neppy sand.
Depends what colour they are.
They're black.
Oh, well, they might have been.
Grey.
They're gone.
Grey, no.
Grey, they're going.
And they're not going to save Mart either.
They wouldn't be grey anymore.
I put them in the dryer and they shrunk.
Oh, rookie Miss J. Now, they're too dryer and they shrunk. Oh, rookie mistake.
Now they're too tight and they're too short.
And you know what, Bree?
It's really breaking my balls.
Yeah, that's really annoying.
You got one?
Come on, make me feel better.
Show me there's something at the moment for you.
So get this.
This morning I've gotten up and I was like,
oh, I might have a bit of toast to start my day off. So I've walked into the kitchen and I've gotten up and I was like, oh, I might have a bit of toast to start my day off.
So I've walked into the kitchen
and I've picked up, we got a new loaf of bread.
It's brand new. Not one piece has
been used out of it. And I've
taken the bread tag off, untwisted it,
got my bread out, put my toast
in and then I went to twist the bag back up.
Yep. Went to put the
bread tag back on. Yeah.
And it bloody broke.
Really twisting my tartars.
You know when you're devastated?
That's a real titty twister.
And you're like, how is this bread going to make it for the rest of the week without a
bread tag?
You've got to use that bread hack where you twist it around and fold the bag back down
over itself.
What is anyone really doing there?
No, only for TikTok.
Anastasia, you can choose which,
if it's the Bs or the Ts for you,
but what is it?
Surely something's upsetting you at the moment.
Coming to work today.
Lovely, lovely weather at the moment.
Sun's shining.
Yeah.
Every Jeff are in the office complaining
about how cold Auckland is.
It's really twisting my tartars.
I mean, it was pretty cold this morning.
It was pretty cold.
It was like four degrees.
Did you see the frost that we had this morning?
It was Auckland cold, okay?
It was Auckland cold.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking.
Auckland cold, not cold.
I looked at the car temperature gauge.
It was 16.
Very cold.
Ben, producer Ben?
Yeah, something that's really twisting my tartars.
I like it.
I've been loading a lot of audio today, all this morning for the show,
and I'm always getting double YouTube ads.
Oh!
Who thought the double YouTube ad was a good idea?
One may be okay.
Have you ever got the quadruple?
No.
I've got a quadruple before.
And a double, they make sure you can't skip one.
You can't skip.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Come on, Ben, say it, man.
Yeah, let's twist in my ta-tas.
I feel better.
I think everybody feels better after that.
Yeah, I feel better.
So let's offer it as a national service this afternoon.
Would you like to call 0800-DIAL-ZM
and tell us exactly what is breaking your balls
or twisting your ta-tas this afternoon?
You can text it through on 9696.
Yeah, whatever it is, get it out there.
Get it off your chest. A problem shared is a on 9696. Yeah, whatever it is, get it out there. Get it off your chest.
A problem shared is a problem halved.
Seriously though, also, what am I going to do with this loaf of bread? I'll lend you
a tag. Okay, yes!
But I want it back.
Finally, finally
we've got
gender fluid
word for breaking my balls.
Twisting my tatas.
And I love it.
I'm here for it.
We want to know this afternoon
what's really twisting your tatas
or breaking your balls.
We've got it off our chest.
You know, we've got it off our chest
and we're feeling good.
Also, everyone just relax.
I know you've probably been sticking around
for a couple of songs.
Someone on the text machine
has offered me some bread tags.
Oh, that's wonderful.
So that's really untwisted.
That's such a generous... It's untwisted my tatas. You've de-twisted them. Oh, that's wonderful. So that's really untwisted. That's such a generous...
It's untwisted matatas.
You've de-twisted them.
Oh, I feel good.
Sarah's here.
Hi, Sarah.
Hi, Sarah.
Hi, guys.
You can choose whichever expression you like,
but when you're ready, just tell us what it is.
Get it off your chest this afternoon.
Traffic in West Auckland.
Yeah.
What's it doing?
It's twisting my tatas.
Not only the traffic, it's the asshats on the road that are also twisting my tatters.
The what on the road?
The asshats.
Oh, the asshats.
I love that saying so much, the asshats.
Sarah, if you go past a petrol station,
it might be time to pull over and have a little breather.
It sounds like the road's getting on top of you this afternoon.
Yeah, I've had my, you know,
ta-tas twisted so much today that I've had to pull over
before I go and get the dog from daycare.
So she's cool, she's cool.
You've been such an enjoyable caller.
Thanks, Sarah.
Sint is here.
Hi, Sint.
Hi, Sint.
Hi.
When you really go for it,
you can choose either of those expressions you want.
Go for it, Sint.
What is it?
Okay.
Well, what really twists my tartars
is I'm a barista
and you're a busy day
and you make a coffee
and it just looks bloody beautiful
and you carry it over to the table and it spills.
Yeah, really twist my tatas too.
Yeah, really twist my tatas.
That twist my areola's, that one.
Pretty good, pretty good.
All the way down to the base.
Yeah, we'll get one more.
This is good.
This is getting it off our chest.
Abby, hi.
Hi, Abby.
Hi, how's it going?
Before you tell us, are you a twisted ta-ta
or a broken balls person?
I'm a twisted ta-ta.
Yeah, girl.
What's really twisting
your ta-tas, Abby?
Well, I'm 36 weeks pregnant,
so I can't wear shoes in winter.
Oh, that's not cool.
And I have to wear my jandals.
I mean, they blew out today.
No!
Did you pop a plug?
Yeah.
You know what you need, Abby.
You know what'll fix that?
A bread tag.
A bread tag.
Brie and Clint.
We've had a conversation about grey hairs before, Brie,
and I think that you'll be excited about this news.
Why me?
Because you...
Why will I be excited?
Because you don't want grey hairs.
You and I have talked about it, and you said you want to cover them up.
You did.
Why are you bringing this up?
This was a personal
off-air conversation.
I want you to bottle this energy. Who do you think has more
grey hairs, you or me? Me, but
I'm fine with it. No, are you sure though?
Maybe mine are more covered because I've got longer hair.
I want you to bottle this energy that you're feeling
right now and listen to what
I have to say. I'm very young.
Scientists have discovered that it's possible to turn your grey hairs back to their original colour,
at least for a short while, and all you have to do is one thing.
Just one thing.
This is so good for people who actually have grey hairs.
And you need it.
I mean, I'm happy to listen.
Listening to you right now, you need it.
Not for me.
The thing that will return.
Jesus.
Your greys.
Back to the right colour.
You just need to chill out.
Literally, that's it.
Well, this break isn't helping, is it?
It's on you.
It's on you.
Doctors found in one case a 35-year-old man's greying hair
temporarily reverted back to its original colour
during a two-week vacation.
Oh, BS.
And in another case, a woman temporarily grew grey hair whilst undergoing a separation and
moving house at the same time.
Very stressful.
And when it was all over, her hair went back to the right colour.
No, it did not.
This is true.
This is true.
I call BS.
They do say, though, whatever you do, it's temporary.
Eventually, age will catch up with you, and by that stage,
like, you can't go to your dad and go,
hey, dad, just chill out, man.
Your hair will go back.
It won't work for him.
Right.
But for you and me, spring chickens, we just need to chill out, man.
Let me ask you.
Have you ever seen a stoner with grey hair?
Nah. Did Bob Marley have? Well, seen a stoner with grey hair? Nah.
Did Bob Marley have?
Well, he died young, so we wouldn't know.
So, no, he didn't.
Hey, story checks out then.
I've got a question for you, personal question.
See, I don't mind that I've got a few grey hairs in my hair.
Good.
You've earned those grey hairs.
The time where I will be very upset about a grey hair,
and maybe you've already experienced this because you're a few years older than me.
Have you experienced a grey hair in the other areas?
That's when you've really got to be devastated.
Haven't checked.
What do you mean you haven't checked?
Well, I'm not leafing through it.
I'm not going in for a deep dive, am I?
No, I'm saying just at a glance.
So, like, if you're looking, can you see anything?
No, at a glance.
We're all good, baby.
Oh, that's good then.
We're still young then.
And to be honest, I've had all laser hair removal,
so I'm not going to know if I would or if I wouldn't.
You're past, Grace, down there.
You're already at the balding stage.
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio.
This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Huge day.
We've been following this case since it started.
Dean McCarthy is with us because Britney Spears has spoken
in her own words about her conservatorship.
Hey, guys.
Yeah, look, I'm so stunned and heartbroken actually today
because this morning for 25 minutes,
Britney Spears called into the courtroom
where they have been discussing her conservatorship for a few years actually
and she spoke to the judge.
In fact, it seems that she didn't even know this would be broadcast
and the world would hear it.
But let me tell you some of the outtakes.
If you didn't hear it from her, you wouldn't even believe it.
It's so wild.
Britney Spears alleges that she has literally been a prisoner in her home.
She has been drugged with different drugs.
She has been forced to go and see therapists in public places
where the paparazzi would be.
She says she is not even allowed to go driving with her boyfriend.
She has an IUD, which means, and she's not allowed to take it out,
which means she's unable to get pregnant.
She really wants to have a baby.
She wants to get married.
She said none of those things are able because of the conservatorship.
And she wants it to end without an evaluation because in the past,
when they've done evaluations, they use the doctors that the Conservatives hire.
Like, it's like a no-win for her.
There's no win for her in that situation.
So corrupt.
They're totally corrupt.
And just so everyone knows,
a couple of little facts around this Conservatorship.
They get paid $4 million a year for this, okay?
So the Conservatives and the dad,
they all get paid a ton of money,
which comes out of Britney's pocket,
to then treat her like this.
When she did the Vegas residency, she got paid $500,000 a show.
The conservators gave her an allowance of $2,000 a week.
They're compromised.
Why are they?
They shouldn't be allowed to comment on this or be involved.
They're compromised because they get money.
It's even more devastating when you hear it in Britney's own words.
Here is a little bit of Britney speaking on her conservator show.
This is the only chance for me to talk to you for a while. I need your help. So if you can just kind of let me know where your
head is. My requests are just to end the conservatorship without being evaluated. I want
a petition basically to end the conservatorship, but I want it to be ended. I don't want to be
evaluated and be sat in a room with people four hours a day like they did me before. I'm honestly
new at this and I'm doing research on all these things. I do know common
sense and the method that things
can end. I just want you to take that
in consideration each time. She made me
feel like my dad does. Very similar
her behavior and my dad, but just
a different dynamic. She wants me to work and
stay home instead of having longer
vacations. They are used to me
sort of doing a weekly. It's crazy, eh?
It's just. She even sounds different.
She sounds coherent. She sounds really
coherent and really concise and
like she knows what she's talking about and that
it's, you know, really interesting.
This is huge, right, Dean? It's massive as far as
the Free Britney movement goes.
Yeah, it is.
And, you know, she's been inspired and empowered
by the Free Britney movement. Her boyfriend has obviously
been telling her what he's seen because, you know, she doesn't inspired and empowered by the Free Britney movement. Her boyfriend has obviously been telling her what he's seen
because, you know, she doesn't have access to websites.
She can't go on YouTube.
It's truly horrific.
Because up until this point, Dean,
because up until this point, she has not spoken a word about this in the how many years?
She hasn't had the ability to.
12 years that she's been under this thing.
That's crazy.
That's right.
So in 13 years, she's never been allowed to speak about it.
So when you hear it today, it sounds so shocking
because she's been holding this thing for 13 years.
There you go.
That's how crazy it is.
Following this story with keen interest,
so please keep us updated, Dean.
That is the latest with thanks to Liquid Self-Service Laundromats.
You can wash and dry duvets from $8 in under an hour.
I want to talk bank mistakes. Sure. You can wash and dry duvets from $8 in under an hour. Bree and Clint.
I want to talk bank mistakes.
Sure.
And what do I mean by that?
You mean they were dumb enough to give you a credit card?
Yeah.
Like that's a huge mistake.
And then they obviously took it back.
No, I'm talking about because obviously I want to say nearly all of us do our banking online.
Surely, surely. My dad doesn't know how to bank online. Does us do our banking online. Surely, surely.
My dad doesn't know how to bank online.
Does he phone bank?
No.
Really?
Nah.
Does he go into the bank?
Goes into the bank.
Did you know some banks are now charging people to go in there?
So if you go in and you want to speak to a bank teller,
they charge you for it?
Some banks.
Oh.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Which sucks for old people because.
Yeah, you've got to at least let people who lived in that generation
keep doing what they're doing.
Did you know you're not allowed to use cheques anymore?
No, I do remember when they got rid of that.
To avoid embarrassment, we do not accept cheques.
There's a woman who has been making headlines around the world
after she spoke out about a massive mistake that her bank made.
So she woke up really early in the morning
and she had this urge to check her bank account for some reason.
So she's went on to her online banking
and they've made a huge mistake.
Take a listen.
Oh, this is negative 49 billion.
I know.
What do I do?
I'm not really sure what inclined me to check my bank account,
but I did.
And then I saw negative 49 billion.
Called my bank and it went a little
something like this hello this is chase bank how may i help you hi i am negative 50 billion dollars
in debt do i have 50 billion dollars no i do have 76 dollars can i put you on hold i've never seen
this before i was like oh anyway i have to go into the bank tomorrow to figure it out 50 billion
dollars in debt that's a pretty big mistake.
That's like a student loan and then some.
What, is she studying to be a doctor or something?
That would be terrifying.
Because I would be worried that all of my other money was gone too.
I mean, she only had $17.
But, you know, if they've wiped that much off.
It was minus the $76 she already had in her account.
Oh, so she was only...
It was $49,999,999,697.98.
Oh, not so bad then.
Not as bad.
That's manageable.
Yeah.
Can you imagine?
I can't even believe that they made a mistake.
That's just a mortgage in Auckland.
That's terrifying.
Banks make mistakes the other way.
There was a guy who owned a gas station where I'm from in Lutrua
who had $10 million transferred into his bank account by mistake.
Yeah, that's the one you'd rather.
And before he alerted anybody.
He didn't spend it.
He transferred it out of his bank account.
And he left the country and went on the run.
Yeah.
Did they get him?
Nah.
What?
Yeah.
I think they've got some people associated.
This sounds like a movie.
But I'm pretty sure it was basically that.
I didn't think they got him.
Last I checked, they hadn't got him.
But he had to go on the run.
He was wanted by Interpol.
But I mean, how much did you say?
$10 million.
How much would it take for you to drop everything
and go on the run?
How much?
There's got to be an amount.
Oh, look,
for $10 million,
you'd be tempted.
You'd be tempted.
You'd go,
that's a lot of on-the-run money.
You could live in Ibiza
for a long time.
Yeah, you could go
from Flash Hotel
to Flash Hotel
for a long time.
You could.
Someone on the text machine
has already texted through
and they said,
one time,
a random bank account ended up
on
my banking app with heaps
of money and I could see all the transactions
attached to the account. I called the bank
and somehow that attached this random
person's account to my name.
That's a breach of privacy as well. I'd freak
out. Yeah, that's when you need to blackmail
them. God, I would look through all of their
transactions. You call and you go, look, you've made a big mistake and a powerful enemy.
If you don't want this news to get out, I want $10 million in my account tonight.
They're like, you can see my account.
I've only got $3,600 in it.
Why are you blackmailing me?
I want to ask people this afternoon on 0800 dialALSATM, has the bank made a mistake?
What was it?
It can be one way or the other.
Yeah, good or bad.
Who knows what it could be?
We want to hear your stories this afternoon on 0800DIALSATM
or you can text us on 9696.
When has your bank made a mistake?
Yeah.
It could come in a lot of different forms.
They could have accidentally put money in your account,
taken it away, sent your account to the wrong person.
The ATM machine could have dished out more money.
We got a text about that, an ATM machine,
also in Notorua where someone went to get 40 bucks out
and the ATM machine gave them 100 bucks.
And then it said their two friends then tried it
and they also got 100 bucks.
And the bank never took the money back.
How good.
Yeah, wow.
That sounds like a magic money machine.
How many times do you try it, eh?
Because you don't want the bank or anyone to cotton on.
So how many times do you try it before you're getting greedy?
It's like a vending machine.
If you know there's a dodgy key or something and then you're like,
oh, I'm just going to keep this to myself.
We want to know when your bank has made a mistake.
Sarah's called up.
Hi, Sarah.
Hi, Sarah.
Hello.
When did your bank make a mistake?
So it was actually my cousin.
His bank account gave him one grand
and he just went on a spending spree with it
and then he had to pay it all back.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
What did he buy?
He bought me Nike Air Forces and alcohol clothes.
He was shouting you as well.
What a generous guy.
Yeah, that's nice.
Yeah.
He spent it on everyone and then he had to pay it back,
but we didn't have to help.
Whoa.
I was going to say, Sarah, seeing as you profited,
you didn't help pay it back?
No, I didn't.
Oh, Sarah.
Oh, sorry. Sorry.
Sarah's like, you're on your own.
How are those air forces though?
You still got them?
No, they're long gone now.
Oh, man, this story had a sad ending.
Thanks, Sarah.
Let's talk to, oh, Anonymous.
Hello, Anonymous.
Hi.
Have you had a banking mistake go in your favor?
Yeah.
I randomly got an email one day from a woman down in Wellington Hi. Have you had a banking mistake go in your favour? Yeah.
I randomly got an email one day from a woman down in Wellington saying that my bank had given her my personal details.
So I didn't know whether to believe it or not.
So then I asked her about it and she sent me the stuff that they'd sent
and it had all my details on it, all my contact details and bank details, bank account and everything
and so I rang my bank
and they said, yeah, that's happened
we're really sorry, here's $500
Whoa!
Wait, did you take it? Because you could take them to court
Did you take the money and run?
Yeah, I just took the money and sent it
Yeah, absolutely, I hope they send my
details to someone
Yeah, you can see all the boring purchases I've been making.
I mean, mine's literally just Uber Eats and fuel.
Someone said they had that happen to them.
They got someone else's statement and saw that the person,
whoever it was, had been buying way too much fancy honey.
That's hilarious.
Did you know I found a jar of honey at Chemist Warehouse the other day for $200 for one jar of honey?
I think it was $200.
$200?
For honey, for a regular sized jar of honey.
Do you think those jars of honey, the medicinal honeys, are a bit like vitamins?
I don't know because I've never had the opportunity to try a $200 honey.
A bit like collagen powder. vitamins? I don't know because I've never had the opportunity to try a $200 honey. If the good people at Chemist Warehouse are
listening, I'm happy to review your $200
honey for you. I mean, I think the honey tastes
delicious. I just don't know if
it's going to heal up my wound.
Adrian is here. Hey, Adrian.
Hi, Adrian. Hey. Your bank made a mistake?
Yeah, just a little bit.
Well, how big
was the mistake?
So, I would have no money in my bank account on the Friday
and I wouldn't put it back in until the Monday.
Oh, that's so rough, Adrian, because you can't go out.
Wait, do you mean regularly?
Yeah, yeah, this happened more than once.
They'd take it out of your account for the weekend
and then put it back in?
Yeah.
Are you sure that wasn't just the bank of mum and dad doing that?
Or your missus?
Nah, nah, nah.
Just trying to control you?
I was working at the time in high school.
Yeah, right.
Kind of a blessing in disguise, right?
Because they're making sure you can't go and blow it on the weekend.
Well, it's not hard to eat when you can't have any money either.
Yeah, Adrian, you've got a point there.
How much would they take?
How much are we talking?
I would have about probably 80 or more bucks in my account,
all gone, back on Monday.
It seems like a penny.
It feels like you're being targeted today.
It feels very...
Yeah, why couldn't they take it from some rich person
they wouldn't even notice?
I don't know.
Worst thing was, I changed banks
and they wouldn't let me withdraw all the money,
so I still have their bank account with them today.
Stink bars.
Oh, Adrian.
Brie and Clint. Look,ink bars. Oh, Adrian. Brie.
Brie and Clint.
Look, big day for cricket, obviously.
You know, big day for the Black Caps today.
Literally the biggest day in the history of New Zealand cricket.
I mean, everyone would be on a massive high if you're into cricket
and you're a Kiwi today, which congratulations.
What a massive, massive milestone. Totally.
For the Black Caps.
Yep.
How tired?
I know.
Very tired.
I bet a lot of people would be tired.
Five nights of staying up late and watching cricket.
I mean, dream, but also.
You'd be exhausted.
We need a rest.
So go have a nap.
But I thought it would be fitting to bring you this cricket story.
Sure.
And it's out of St. Mary's Cricket Club.
In Auckland? No. This is Cricket Club. In Auckland?
No, this is over in England.
Oh, yeah.
And it's that local cricket club versus Sowersby St. Peter's
in the Halifax Cricket League Crossley Shield quarterfinal.
Wonderful.
The batsman is Asif Ali,
and he had quite the moment in this club game
when he hit a massive six.
You may be able to hear that something happens.
It's a big bang.
It's a big bang, and he actually hit the front
or the back windscreen of his own car
I believe. Oh no.
Oh no.
You can't really tell from that audio because
there's no commentary but
producer Ben and I have done
some digging and we've found
the official commentary. Oh good.
That goes. That'll enhance it. Yes.
That goes with the moment that Asif Ali hit his back windscreen.
Hello and welcome back to the grounds.
We've got an absolute cracker of a day here worth of cricket
where they're going to use their bats and their balls
and they're going to smash a few.
Let's go back now live to the action where some dude, yep, he's thrown it.
He's gotten under it. It's going. It's going. It looks like it's going to be a six. Oh,
he's absolutely nailed a car in the car park. Someone is going to be a very, very unhappy
spectator. Oh, no way. No no. He's in his own car.
What an absolute f*** it.
His wife is going to be ropeable.
God, I love this sport.
How's that?
How's that?
Brie and Clint.
Once upon a time, there was a girl.
She was smart, debatable, talented,
eh,
athletic.
Not really.
But picking a movie title based on just the plot line,
that she can do.
Brie and Clint's
What's the Plot?
Our movie guessing game
where every week
that Brie wins
the money jackpots.
For that reason,
this week we are playing
for $650 cash.
So how many wins is that?
You're going for 13.
Oh, that's my lucky number.
Surely I can't lose it today.
Or is it?
No, it is my lucky number.
Or is it?
No, it is.
I just said that it was.
Or is it?
Today taking you on
is David. Hi, David. Hi, Davide. Hi, guys. How is it? Today, taking you on is David.
Hi, David.
Hi, Davide.
Hi, guys.
How are you?
Good, good, good.
You know your movies, David?
I hope so.
Me too.
Me too.
Someone needs to take this woman down.
Take her downtown, you know?
Today, there's always a theme in today to celebrate a historic cricket victory overnight.
Movies about cricket.
We will be doing cricket movies.
Are we actually?
Nah, they don't exist.
I was going to say, surely there's not that many cricket movies.
I don't think there's any.
No, I've watched one before.
Oh, you've watched one more than me then.
No, today to celebrate the Blackcaps victory, we'll be doing sports movies. Oh, I've watched one more than me then. No, today, to celebrate the Black Caps victory, we'll be doing
sports movies. Oh, I do
love a sports movie. What about you, David?
Yeah, not too bad, actually.
Good. Okay, you're both in the game. I think we've got a fair fight.
He sounds very quietly confident.
It makes me nervous. You're going to have to be hot on
your buzzer. Your buzzer is David.
Bree, your buzzer is David.
No, it's Bree. First to
two correct plots wins.
You don't have to wait for me to finish the plot line before you buzz in.
Good luck, everybody.
Movie number one.
In Virginia, high school football.
Brie.
The Blindside.
The Blindside.
It's got to be.
Is incorrect.
David, would you like a guess?
Remember the Titans.
Remember the Titans is correct.
Oh, no, that's so right.
The other high school football movie.
David, you're up one now.
Oh, no, I'm so nervous now.
Movie number two.
Adonis Johnson never knew his father, boxing champion...
Brie.
Brie. Adonis Johnson never knew his father, boxing champion... Brie. Brie.
Adonis Johnson.
Don't take too long here.
You're giving David time to think.
Creed.
Creed is...
Correct.
Were you going Creed, Rocky, Creed, Rocky?
No, I literally was going The Fighter, Creed, Rocky.
I know all the boxing movies.
It's one all, everybody.
A fair fight.
I've been looking forward to a fair fight for so long.
I'm so nervous.
I feel there's a lot of pressure on me to pick a fair movie for the last one as well.
David, you win this, right?
Yep.
All right, here we go.
Oh, my God.
Winner takes all on this question.
Whoever gets it wins the game.
If it's you, David, you win $650 cash.
Movie number three.
Our main character is a homeless teen.
Brie, the blind side.
The blind side is correct.
Bugger.
David, that was a close one, mate.
You devo.
You got me.
No, Ben.
David, you deserve 50 KFC chicken dollars coming your way, mate.
Cheers.
Thanks, Bree.
Thanks for playing.
Bree and Clint.
This is interesting, Bree. The University of Chicago has been studying the wage gap.
And they've found a particular wage gap that is similar to,
and in some cases bigger than, the gender pay gap,
which is how much...
You don't even know what it's called because you've never had it.
How much more...
I think it's men get paid than women.
I think men get paid more.
No, yeah, I think that's right.
This one's also bigger than the racial pay gap in some places as well.
This pay gap might surprise you that it even exists.
It's the attractiveness pay gap.
Oh, God.
The study has found that physical attractiveness means that you will earn more for doing the same job as someone else who is not considered as physically attractive as you.
That's such BS.
They already get the benefits of looking great.
I know.
And now they get paid more.
I know.
Said from two people who are in the middle of the range.
We're mid-rangers.
We're mid-rangers.
We know it.
We're average.
We're Kia Sorrentos.
Yeah.
I thought this afternoon we could put this to the test and call our boss and ask him.
He employs us.
He pays our wages.
Yeah, he would know.
Who's more attractive, you or me?
You know?
And that way we'll know who's getting paid more.
We'll know who's getting paid more.
Same job.
Who's hotter?
Ross bosses away.
This is our big, big boss, Mike Boss.
Oh, this is going to be awkward as.
Hello? Hey, Mike, Brianne Clint. How you going? Oh, hello is going to be awkward as... Hello?
Hey, Mike, Bree and Clint, how you going?
Oh, hello, guys.
G'day, mate.
Hey.
G'day.
Just a quick question for you.
Easy one.
And all we need you to do is be honest with us.
Out of Bree and I, who do you find more attractive?
Absolutely Bree, 100%. No, no, no.
Hang on.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
You don't want some time to think about that? No, no, no. Hang on. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You don't want sometimes to think about that?
No, no, no, no time to think.
I mean, I see what you're saying.
You're heterosexual, so naturally you would gravitate towards Bri.
I mean, objectively, like if you had to, like if anyone was available,
if we were both available, who would you find the hottest?
I think we got everything we need, Clint.
Objectively, 100% Brianna Thomas.
Right, okay, cool.
Sorry, Clint.
No, that's perfect.
That's spot on.
Thank you, Mike.
Thanks for being so honest.
I love you guys.
Bye.
See ya.
See ya.
See ya later.
Okay, well, that settles it.
Next time we go out for dinner, you're paying.
I feel like it's leveled up, though.
Because you're a man
I'm more attractive
Now we're even
I want to discuss
An interesting topic
About going on solo holidays
When you're in a relationship
Right
Because I saw this online
And it was a woman
Who was talking about a situation
She's currently in with her boyfriend
She says,
last year, my boyfriend and I were supposed to go on a trip together. However, a week before the trip,
he cancelled due to family issues. Luckily, I was able to get a credit, but he barely considered me
when he decided to cancel. Now with things opening up, he's decided he's going to plan a solo trip.
I get it. He enjoys enjoys traveling alone but i think
it's important in relationships that we allow both partners to have space to travel and grow
however he's planning on going on the exact same trip that we plan to go on together oh what a
stink guy he's gonna do your holiday not Not cool. You can't do that.
You can't cancel the trip and then decide you want to go on the exact same trip by yourself.
You planned it with your partner.
Yeah.
See, that is so interesting because on principle, I don't have a problem with solo holidays.
I'm not keen for a solo holiday.
I just would rather share my experiences with my partner.
But I don't have a problem with them.
But that one's different.
You know, there's mitigating circumstances.
He screwed her over and then he's going to screw her over again
by going on the holiday.
Yeah, he's not cool.
I think that's a pretty clear cut one.
So that one's a no.
That's a big no.
But let's say you're in a relationship
and your partner likes to go on solo holidays
or they like to go on holidays with friends
or there's a girls' trip or a boys' trip.
What's your take on that?
I think girls' trips and boys' trips are different
because I think those trips are that's some bonding time for,
you know, like that's some out-of-relationship bonding time.
But holidays, specifically holidays,
do you find it a little bit suspicious
if someone's partner wants to go on a solo holiday?
I think it depends on your relationship.
If you're very comfortable and you trust your partner,
then no, I don't find it suspicious.
Would you be hurt, and be honest with me,
would you be hurt if you went home tonight
and your partner said,
hey, I want to go to Australia for a couple of weeks
and I want to go alone? for a couple of weeks and I want to go alone.
No, probably not.
Really?
No.
And I think it depends because I probably wouldn't be able to get the time off.
Oh, yeah.
So if I couldn't get the time off, but they still want to go.
But she's not inviting you at all.
Yeah, but she probably knows that I can't get the time off, but she's got time off.
So she wants to go.
So I'm going to be like, yeah, that's fine.
I don't want to hold you back just because I can't get time off.
Yeah.
You know?
If I went home and my wife, Lucy, said that to me, I'd be like,
cool, are you taking one of the kids with you or both?
Because you ain't leaving me with both.
I ain't keeping both.
We'll split the children.
Yeah, it's an interesting one because i feel like people
maybe i'm just i haven't done it before so i don't really know but i feel like people just
don't do it when they're in relationships do you think you would enjoy it as much if you weren't
sharing it with your partner like i'm talking about new experiences i'm talking about going
to a new country and experiencing new things i think think at the end of the day, going on a holiday with your partner, very different
to going on a holiday with five of your really good mates.
Yeah.
Like, but to be honest, I feel like my partner would come on the, on the friend trip anyway.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, but still, it's also cool to do those friend trips and your partner can also come
because I feel like you get into this kind of,
you know when you've been in a relationship for a long time
and you just don't do the friend trips anymore?
Yeah, yeah, they're good for that.
Look, this is tough because we don't do them.
We don't do solo holidays.
I'd love to hear people who do do them.
Yeah, is it a normal thing in your relationship to go on solo holidays?
What's the reasoning behind it?
Why do you do it?
What do you think you get out of it?
Are they a great idea?
Do you recommend them to everybody?
Should everybody be going on a solo holiday
while they're in a relationship at some stage?
Does it cause fights in your relationship?
0800 DIAL ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Do you go on solo holidays and you're in a relationship?
Are you in a relationship but you do solo holidays and you're in a relationship? Bree and Clint. Are you in a relationship but you do solo holidays?
Maybe it's something you had always done before the relationship
or maybe it's something you guys decided you wanted to do
as a part of your relationship.
Maybe it's a mandatory for you in relationships.
It's like, I'm with you, I'm dedicated to you,
but I need a break.
I find this text really interesting.
And someone said, regarding if your partner is going on a holiday on their own,
pre-COVID my partner would go on holidays as a solo traveller.
On the outside, I'd be all mature about it.
But on the inside, the insecure part of me was screaming, no, no.
That's such an honest text.
Such an honest text and very relatable.
So let's talk about solo holidays and talk to people who do them.
And why?
Tegan's here.
Hi, Tegan.
Hi, Tegan.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thanks.
Is this something you do in your relationship?
Yeah, so my partner's 30th.
He always wanted to go to Africa.
So he decided he'd go to Africa for his 30th and go on a G Adventures tour.
And it was totally something I didn't want to do.
So yeah, he went.
Wow.
There you go.
Okay, no interest in it.
You don't like elephants?
No, it was something I didn't really want to be up and close and personal with the elephant,
so he just sent me photos from a distance, which was great.
Did he still enjoy it by himself, or did he want to share that experience with you?
Well, he asked me if I wanted to go, and I wasn't interested.
Yeah, sweet.
So, nah, it wasn't something that I wanted to do.
So, I don't know.
I think if there's enough trust in a relationship,
I don't think it's a problem.
It should be fine.
There's quite a lot of texts where people are saying stuff like,
I didn't want to do that, so my partner did it on their own.
Yeah, right.
So that's quite interesting.
A lot of people are saying that.
This text I find fascinating.
Someone said, I frequently go on solo holidays.
There is nothing like being in the car with your music on going somewhere.
It's so exciting.
I'm married and we have one daughter who is nine months old.
My husband and I spent two years living apart to concentrate on our jobs
and we would meet up when time allowed.
I enjoy the time alone to think, relax and exercise
without having to consider everyone else's needs.
I take myself out for dinner and to the movies
and it's great, uninterrupted time.
Wow, it would make your relationship quite exciting too, eh?
It would and that is like,
I think the definition of the new age relationship.
Do what works for you.
This is really interesting.
This person wants to remain anonymous
but you reckon your partner changed after a solo holiday.
Yeah.
What happened, Anonymous?
So she went away on a road trip, and then when she came back,
her attitude and behaviour towards me changed,
and we split a couple months later.
What do you think happened on that trip?
I try not to think about it.
Did she go on the trip with anyone else or just by herself?
She went on a trip with all her girls, all her friends.
Do you think something happened?
Or do you think that they just sort of talked her out of being into you?
Probably a bit of both.
Yeah, right.
That's so rough, Anonymous.
Right.
I'm really sorry that that happened to you, Anonymous.
And it's something you really notice.
Like if she's been away for a bit and then when they come back,
they act different.
See, he'll be scarred on solo holidays now too.
He wouldn't want to.
Yeah, he wouldn't want to do it again.
In the future, he might have someone with great intentions
and he'll be like, you can't, you're not allowed to go away.
Yeah, far out.
This happened to me last time.
Marianne is here.
Hi, Marianne.
Hi, Marianne.
Hi.
What happened, Marianne?
So basically, I definitely go on solo trips all the time
or just like going to solo gatherings by myself
just because I want to.
Yeah, love that.
And my partner doesn't mind.
And I remember one time,
especially right after the pandemic,
I was like, I'm going to go to Wanaka by myself, babe.
And he was just like, cool.
And then I get to Wanaka and I was like,
give him a phone call.
And I was like, hey, I've decided I'm going to go skydiving. And he was just like, cool. And then I get to Wanaka and I was like, give him a phone call and I was like,
hey, I've decided
I'm going to go skydiving.
And he was like,
absolutely great.
Amazing.
Have fun.
Cool.
You sound like a ball of energy
and a lot of fun.
When you say you go to
gatherings by yourself,
do you mean like festivals?
Will you go to like
a concert by yourself?
Like, I mean,
I go to theatre,
watch a theatre show by myself,
take myself out for dinner.
I went to, you know, I often go to like festivals,
like, you know, all the time.
Like most of them are quite like artsy.
You go to a festival by yourself?
Yeah, like, you know, Auckland Arts Festival.
I go to shows, I see dance, you know,
Tempo Dance Festival by myself.
Your goals, by the way, you've got such a great attitude.
And to be honest, I was going to say,
if it was like a music festival, most of the time I end, by the way. You've got such a great attitude. And to be honest, I was going to say if it was like a music festival,
most of the time
I end up by myself anyway
and I'm like,
where are you?
There's no service.
Yeah, the only difference
is you don't have to find anybody.
Exactly.
You just can hang out.
Next Friday, we'll be in Christchurch hosting the first ever Birthday Banger Live Party where you come to the Carlton Bar in Christchurch
and we find out what your birthday banger is in the bar.
That's right.
You have to pre-register so we can get all the songs and everything organised.
You can do that.
Go to our Facebook page, search Bree and Clint, and you'll find it there.
Or you can go to ZM Online.
And you can win up to $500 cash if your birthday banger gets voted the best on the night.
It's going to be so much fun.
Birthday banger and beers.
Yeah.
We've got to get some party food, by the way.
Some birthday party food.
What's the best party food?
Cheerios.
Cheerios and little bowls of tomato sauce.
So good.
And...
Fairy bread.
Irvine sausage rolls that you cut up and do in the oven yourself.
Sausage rolls are great.
Fairy bread, yes.
Fairy bread's delish.
Yeah, let's get some party food for our birthday banger party.
Okay, let's start off with a real birthday banger for Maddie.
Hi, Maddie.
Hi, Maddie.
Hey, how's it going?
Good, thanks.
How are you?
I'm good, thank you.
That's good.
Maddie, what's your birthday?
6-6-96.
Ooh, I like that birthday.
All the sixes.
Good, okay. Here we go. You were-96. Ooh, I like that birthday. All the sixes. Good, okay.
Here we go.
You were 16 in 2012 on the 6th of June.
And here's your birthday banger.
Ah, more Flo Rida.
We had Flo Rida yesterday too.
He had a massive run around that time, didn't he?
What do you reckon he's doing now?
I don't know.
Maddie, do you like Flo Rida?
Wessel is your birthday banger?
Yeah.
Yeah.
A high-pitched yeah.
It's like not old enough yet, is it?
Well, that means Maddie's not old enough.
Yeah, how old are you, Maddie?
I'm 25.
That's a boy to go.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I'm jealous to be 25
again. That's the best age.
Because you can still blame it on
being young, but then you also have a little
bit more money, hopefully. Are you old enough to rent
a car? Yeah. Maddie's here.
Hi, Maddie. Oh, no, Matt. We had Maddie. This is
Matt. G'day, Matt. Yeah, g'day.
How's it going? Good, mate. How's your Thursday?
Not bad.
Good. You know, in Christchurch, are you, Matt?
No, I'm in Auckland, actually.
Good.
I was going to say, we won't do yours if you're in Christchurch.
You can just come to the party.
Yeah, you have to come to the party.
No, but you're in Auckland, so let's do it.
What's your birthday?
13th of Feb, 1999.
All right, Matt.
You were 16 in 2015 on the 13th of February.
And in 2015, this had a number one hit.
I love this song. on the 13th of February. And in 2015, this had a number one hit.
I love this song.
Omi, Cheerleader, the Felix Kahn remix.
Do you like it, Matt?
Yeah, not a bad tune.
Not bad.
I think this is my favourite Omi song.
It's definitely top five Omi, eh?
Yeah.
So right up there for me.
Hard last to round out.
Yeah, I know.
Let's go to Hina.
Hi, Hina.
Hi, Hina.
Hi, how's it going?
Good, how are you?
Yeah, we're good, thank you.
Do you think you can take this one out this afternoon?
I hope so.
I really hope so.
Let's give it a whirl.
What's your birthday?
1st of April, 1993.
All right, you were 16 in 2009 on the 1st of April.
On April Fools, this was top of the charts.
What is going on?
There's a Flo Rida too, right?
Oh yeah, and Kesha.
Flo Rida.
That's the first track, that part there where Kesha's singing.
This was before TikTok.
Oh, wow.
Hina, do you like your birthday banger, Flo Rida Runt Rounds?
Yeah, I say I love it.
Oh, you love it.
Good.
Okay, great.
That's good.
You know what's really weird that I just noticed?
Yeah? Is that obviously that song by Kesha, TikTok,
was the only thing I thought of when I heard TikTok,
and now I think of the app before I think of that song.
Oh, my God.
Maybe Kesha wasn't forever.
Maybe she should redo the song but make it about the app.
Oh, boom.
Colab.
I've seen she just got on TikTok.
It's only cheerleader for me.
Yeah, same.
Flo Rida's going to be devastated.
Matt, congratulations
You've just won birthday bag
Get it going
Get it going
Brian Clint, good tune
ZM
ZM, Brian Clint
The winner of birthday bagger for Matt from Auckland
is Omi and cheerleader
the Felix Khan
remix.
Great song.
One of my top two Omi songs.
Yeah.
It's that and...
Hula Hoop.
How did you know?
I just took a guess.
How did you pick it?
I took a guess.
Took a stab.
This is the same song, by the way.
Do you remember... Do you remember Lunch Money Lewis?
Yeah, I got bells.
Kind of reminds me of...
The horns, I think.
Yeah.
Bring Back Home.
It's the same song.
It's the exact same song.
Instead of cheerleader, it's hula, hula, hula, hula.
Don't hate it, though.
Up next on the show, it's that age-old question where, you know,
people feel so insanely awkward if someone that they're talking to
or they're looking at has something on their face.
Or in their teeth.
Or in their teeth. Yeah. Or their fly's undone. their face. Or in their teeth. Or in their teeth.
Yeah.
Or their fly's undone.
Or a boogie in their nose.
Or a boogie.
Oh, my God, that's the worst one.
I'd much rather tell someone they've got lipstick on their teeth
than they've got a boogie in their nose.
Toilet paper on their shoe.
Yeah, that one's all right.
The boogie in the bat in the cave is the worst.
Toilet paper on the shoe is the most embarrassing, surely.
You reckon?
Yeah. Nah, it. You reckon? Yeah.
Nah, it's boogie for me.
Nah, because what if their toilet paper's dirty?
It's a boogie.
How are you meant to get that out gracefully in front of someone?
True, true, true, true.
Yuck.
Suck it back up.
Anyway, a poll has come out where they've asked the question to a bunch of people,
would you tell someone if they had some of that stuff going on?
And I have the results.
Right.
But I've also done my own research.
Right.
It's like a boogie up your nose.
Not a boogie.
And some toilet paper to your shirt.
It's the age-old question, to tell or not to tell
when someone's got something in their teeth.
It's such an awkward situation.
It shouldn't be though.
And I don't know why it is.
It's a kind thing to do to tell them.
It really is.
But they're going to be embarrassed in front of you.
I always tell someone.
Yeah.
I find it quite easy to be like, oh, you've got something in your teeth.
It's more embarrassing food on the face, I think, than in the teeth.
You reckon?
Because it means that you're a bit messy.
Oh, I don't know.
That's what it insinuates, that you've been a bit messy
and you've got some on your face.
What do you think is the worst?
Food in the teeth, lipstick on the teeth, food on the face,
the fly undone, toilet paper on the shoe, or a big booger?
Oh, booger, food on the face, toilet paper.
No, booger, toilet paper, food on the face.
Yeah, booger takes the cake for me.
I don't think I could tell someone.
You know when you're in the pool and someone comes up from the water
and then all of a sudden they've got this giant booger
and you're just like, oh, my God, swim away.
We have to do photo shoots quite regularly with our job
and I've made it Producer Anastasia's special job
to check if there's a bat in the cave. Yeah, quite a
degrading job actually. Well, you know
but it's a big responsibility. It means I trust
you Anastasia. Yeah.
How do you feel about that
job? Look, I mean I have
written up my CV and cover letter for new
jobs after the experience. Put that
down as experience. Yeah, yeah
totally. That's important stuff. They asked a
poll to quite a lot of people,
would you tell someone if they had food on their face,
lipstick on their teeth, or their fly down?
What do you think?
How many percent do you think said yes, they would tell someone?
50-50, I reckon.
The percentage of people that said yes, they would tell someone?
90%.
Oh, yeah, okay. 10% said they would say no, they would tell someone. 90%. Oh, yeah, okay.
10% said they would say no, they wouldn't say anything.
I call BS because how often or not do you go all night
with something like this and then you look in the mirror
right at the end of the night.
Why didn't some bastard tell me?
And no one's told me.
Anyway, I've done my own investigation this afternoon
where I endeavoured to put food on my face.
It was quite a lot of marmite in the corner of my mouth.
Visible, highly visible.
Highly visible.
And I pretended I was asking people around the office here at ZM
a question not related to anything about food on my face
just to see if they would tell
me.
Sure.
Here's what happened.
I have a question for you.
What do you want?
You know when you go to a restaurant and they, and the, she's looking right at it.
The thing comes up on the FBOS machine, tip or no tip, do you tip?
No, definitely not.
Is there anything else you'd like to tell me?
You're going to tell me I've got food
on my bloody face?
You sat there looking at it the whole time.
Tip or no tip, do you tip? Not in New Zealand
I don't tip, no. Are you going to tell me about the food
on my face? Not at all.
I haven't got my glasses
on, I thought it was a mole.
Do you tip at a restaurant?
No. Is there anything else you want to tell me?
You got a bit of mum on your mouth?
See? I knew he bloody would
tell me. Do you tip?
If I'm feeling generous, yes,
but mostly no. Is there anything else you want to tell
me? Why are you touching your
face in that spot?
Is there anything else you'd like to tell me?
No, you're all good.
Sweet, thanks mate. Appreciate that.
Do you tip? No. This is New Zealand.
We don't tip in New Zealand. Is there anything else you'd
like to tell me? What do you mean?
Something you want to tell me?
What have I done? What have I done? Why are you looking at me?
Oh shit, I thought you had
like a ring in there.
I thought it was a ring.
People will do anything to avoid
telling you that you've got food on your face.
There you go.
One out of the
multiple people I asked,
I looked them straight in the eye
and they couldn't help themselves but look at the
food on my face. They're drawn to it, eh?
But they couldn't tell me. You should have said,
my eyes are up here.
There you go.
I think tell people.
They will appreciate it later.
Unless you hate them in which case.
Yeah, then don't tell them.
Next month,
Jeff Bezos from Amazon
blasts off into outer space, Brie.
And he'll never return.
Well, no, he's planning on coming back.
But you never know with space.
You're right, you never know.
I thought he was going to Mars.
Him and his brother will ride the blue Origin rocket into space.
Oh, I thought it was a red rocket.
No.
This is a blue Origin rocket.
A picture of it has been released.
Now, you can't see this at home, but Brie...
How big's Jeff Bezos' rocket?
Well you say that but Brie I'd like you to
Describe Jeff Bezos'
rocket that him
and his brother will be blasting into space
in
It's a chodey rocket
I'm going to call it
a micro chode rocket.
It's a long, phallic rocket
with a bulbous head on the end of it, isn't it?
Oh, what is he? He's asking
for it. He is absolutely asking
for it. Now, you may
think that Brie and I have a dirty mind for thinking
the rocket looks like a giant
penis.
Johnson.
But, I assure you, we're not the only ones.
Have a listen to Australian breakfast television host
Carl Stefanovic and his team
viewing Jeff Bezos' rocket for the first time this morning.
Rockets everywhere this morning.
I don't know what they call that.
A rocket.
They call it Blue Origin.
Does that look a little odd to you? This A rocket. They call it Blue Origin.
Does that look a little odd to you?
20 years now for more.
His US correspondent, Alison Petrowski-Alley.
It's because the rocket looks like a Venus.
Why would he do that to himself?
Yeah, I know.
He's so rich that he doesn't care, I don't think.
He doesn't care.
But, I mean, there's also science involved.
I'm sure it's a good design for a rocket or something like that.
Oh, come on.
They could have done any shape.
But why do they have to do that exact shape?
Brian Clint, if you want to see the rocket, just Google the Blue Origin.
Don't do it at work because it might bring up websites
that aren't good.
Bree and Clint. A real life
sexpert has
spoken out, given some
advice on Instagram actually
this is where I got it from
about the four words you
can say during
indoor gardening to up your game.
Oh yeah? I'm all ears. She guarantees if anyone's game needs upping What can you say during indoor gardening to up your game? Oh, yeah.
I'm all ears.
She guarantees.
If anyone's game needs upping.
It's your game.
It's mine.
Well, this will be good for everyone.
I feel like this is really good advice, and it's from sexpert Dr. Emily Morse,
who has said all it is is four simple words.
Before you tell us what they are, have you used them yet?
Oh, yet?
You mean after reading this? Yeah.
No, because I read this this morning.
Right.
But I have used this in the past.
So I feel like I'm on the right track.
Okay.
I feel like I'm doing the right thing.
Okay, so it's personally endorsed by you.
Yeah, well, I can say that I think it works. Sure, okay okay four words they're going to up your indoor gardening game lay them on us four
words that you should ask in the bedroom whilst indoor gardening are do you like this oh
yeah there's actually really good theory behind it. Yeah, yeah. Because she talks about how the more you ask questions,
the more you get to know,
and the better communication makes indoor gardening the best it can be.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's about opening the lines of communication, right?
Yeah.
I mean, it seems so simple,
but can you imagine how many people would have never have asked that?
Yeah.
Ever.
It's the same as, is this good for you?
That's five words, but like, yeah.
What do you like?
Are you enjoying this at all, or should I stop?
No, too many.
Too many words.
How about, you good?
I can leave if you want.
Pretty simple stuff.
There you go.
From an expert, a doctor.
Use it as you will. There you go. From an expert, a doctor. Use it as you will.
One more time.
Those four words that are going to increase your game are...
Do you like this?
There you go.
Your indoor garden will never have bloomed so much.
