You tapped it, so we're playing it. It's ZM's Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM's Brie and Clint, thanks to KFC's new Katsu Bowl, here for a good time, not a long time. Woo! I know you need me up. ZM's Brie and Clint. I change your life if you just live on a night. Good everybody. Welcome to the Brie and Clint show where we are running a one-in, one-out policy.

I haven't been here this week, back today. Now Bree's off. She's not feeling well. Well, really, it's a two-out one in policy, isn't it? Because Ella's off too, Claudia. That's how many people it takes to fill your seat, right? So you came back, so the equivalent left. So the people.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And what's your excuse? Oh, I never leave. Missed me. Yeah, I missed you. Yeah. Holy crap, is there one point in Trady versus Lady. Yes, so we got to tie on Monday.

Wow. The ladies, yeah, they took it back. We got to a tie? Yes, we got to a tie for the first time all year. And the Trady still couldn't close the kids. They still couldn't get the job done. But maybe we'll tie it up again today. And then by the end of the week, the tradies might be ahead.

It's big stuff. It's almost October, guys. It's almost October. We're running out of time here. So what have we got? We've got all of October. All of November. And then we'll have...

Most of December. Actually, most of December. Maybe two thirds of December. Actually, there's heaps. There's heaps time. If there's one point in it, there's heaps of time. But trends are a real thing. And the trend has been ladies on top.

all year. So who knows? Some big prizes on the show today. We've got tickets to the Blitterslow Cup match in Auckland, All Blacks versus Wallabies, this Saturday. The Wallabies haven't lifted the Blitterslow Cup in 23 years, so they'll want it. And we've got two tickets to give away at 4.30 this afternoon with Blitters Lower or Higher. That'll be a bit of fun. Plus, we've got laneway tickets up for grabs. Yes, we have free laneway tickets to see Chapel Roan, live and we'll give those away at 5.30, I will tell you there's a segment happening in the 4 o'clock hour today that is going to give you the answer to the 530 question. You don't necessarily need to have heard that if you're a big Chabal Roan fan, but it will, look, it will

help you, okay? If you're on, if you're a sometimes fan, this will help you. So basically just keep us on all afternoon and you could finish the day with laneway tickets, Blitzlow Cup tickets, and a tradie versus lady victory if you're keen. There's 50 bucks cash thanks to KFC to start the show up for grabs in that and we will take one tradie and one lady play ZDEM's Brie and Clint it's

Trady versus lady three two one Let's go No Bree today so watch me attempt to run Trady versus Lady all by myself where it's very serious it's very tense and it's very close

because the Trades are on 77 and the ladies are on 78 and if you don't know the significance of that. We keep score all year. There is an ultimate winner crowned at the end of the year. And the tradies have not been in front once this year. The best they got was yesterday, Claudia, said they managed to draw a level.

They were level on Tuesday. But now it's back to a one point difference. So let's go to our lady first, who's in Wellington. She's 31 and she's into Lego. Welcome to the show, Samantha. Hi. Do you understand the importance of this round of Trady versus? Ladies, Samantha?

I do, yes. Yeah, okay, no pressure. I mean, there's been no pressure on the ladies all year. You guys have been crushing it, you know? Yeah. Yeah. But don't let that go to your head. You've got to get past our Trady, who's in Hamilton.

He's also 31. Good match, and he's here for justice for the Trades. Welcome to the show, Kay. Hi. How you going? Welcome on board for Trady versus Lady. Have you ever played before? No.

ZDM's Brie and Clint podcast. Don't ask me why, but there have been 12 New Zealand words, or I guess you call them Kiwiisms, added to the Oxford English Dictionary. Not the New Zealand Oxford English Dictionary, the Oxford English Dictionary. This is big for us. It's big for us, but also why? It's a fair point.

Are they trying to boost dictionary sales in New Zealand? Is this a New Zealand tourism thing? Yeah, are there people coming here? and they don't understand New Zealanders, so they need to add more of our words to the dictionary. I don't know. But I've got the list, and we're going to go through them now. These are words, New Zealand words, Kiwiisms,

officially added to the Oxford Dictionary. First one, Kazi Bro. What? Cousy Bro. Cazibro. He's my cousin. I guess we do use that. He's not your cousin.

He's my cousin. And he's not your brother. He's your cousin. It feels too informal to be an addiction. but okay. Cazibro, noun. Next word added to the Oxford English dictionary, hapoo.

Oh, yeah? Adjective, pregnant. She's hapoo as, G, if you were to use it in a sentence. Bro, I'm pretty sure she's hapoo. You know? Can you refer to women as cazibro? Is the cazibro hapoo?

Bro, my cazibro is hapoo. No, I don't think you can. But your cazi can be hapoo. And it can be. your bros. True. Yes. There's a words, New Zealandism, added to the Oxford English dictionary.

Not a joke. By the way, this is real lifestyler. What? Lifestyleer. Can you use that in a sentence, please? No, I can't, but it's a noun, which means somebody is a lifestyler. I think maybe that's what Vaughan is because he lives on a pretend farm. He lives on a lifestyle block.

Okay. So I think he's a lifestyler. I've never heard that. Yeah, yeah. Next one, South Islanders. will be stoked with this finally being recognised Lux, verb to Lux the Floors. Claudia is to...

I've never in my life. You've never heard the term Lux. No. You lux the floors when they're dirty. You get out the Dyson and you lux the floors. What? Vacuuming. Oh. Verb, doing word.

Correct. It's because the brand of vacuum cleaners that everybody bought in the South Island in the 60s and 70s was Lutz. Is it the modern version of Hoover? Yes. No, it's the region. original version. Oh, okay.

It's the South Island version. So we hoover the floors. They lux the floors. Okay. Yeah. Next one, easy. Morina has been added to the dictionary. That's nice.

I like that. I like that. Next, verb rark. Like to rark someone up. Rack someone up. Or to be on the rark. Oh, what's that one? To be on the rark is to be on the pizzo.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. They also added rark up. So that's when you, that's when you, that's when you get. get fired up, you know? Okay. Like you would say, the All Blacks needed a good RAR cup at half time in that Springbox game.

These are real Kiwisms added to the Oxford Dictionary. Next one's Sweet As. Oh, yeah, sweet as. No explanation needed. That one is sweet as. This is interesting. It's more of a phrase that's been added to the Oxford English Dictionary, Kiwi-Ism, to climb into, as in to climb into someone.

so if you're tearing strips off someone if you're having your go at someone if you're giving them a hard time you're really climbing into them I would say like ripping into someone not climbing into someone I agree and I actually think that's more Kiwi to rip into someone

I've never heard climb in but to climb into someone not sexual it means to I'm going to start using that yeah very similar to deal to someone so to deal to

has been added to the Oxford dictionary we didn't need that one And the last Kiwi-ism added to the Oxford English Dictionary, trundler, as in trundler bed. Are we the only ones in the world that say trundler bed? What do other people call a trundler? What do other people say when they stay at a hotel as a family, but they didn't book enough rooms, and your mum goes,

can we get a trundler bed as well? Cor reception, and what are you asked for? Can you wheel in a trundler bed? Yeah. Yeah. What else is it? I don't know. If not a trundler?

A fold out? No, no. No. A roll away. Oh. I don't know. I didn't realize that, but Trundler. The world needs to catch up on that one.

Kiwi-ism, Trundler, added to the dictionary. Very good, mostly. I thought of some other quick ones that should be added up to. One word, up to. Oh, yeah. Question. I don't know, question, up to. Statement.

Far, but not F-A-R, F-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-R. Far. Far. Far. Far. Far out. Far waho. There could be different levels with different amounts of A's.

Far. Yeah, that should be added. Shottie bowl. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Long for shot bowl. Yep. It's just a long four.

Long for shop bowl. I don't know if this wins Kiwi. Do you think Neff is Kiwi? I have not heard it. I think Ozies might have Neff as well. I think I'm also out of the loop by the list that we've gone through. I just don't know things. Oh, you don't have anyone in Neff.

life to refer to you as neff? No. Okay. And the last one I added was scab, as in the verb, to scab off someone. To scab off someone. They always ask them for your food. Yes, you see someone with a drink that you want some of, so you scab a drink. Can I scab a drink?

And they go, no lips g. I actually like that one. Scab should be in there, shouldn't it? Yeah. Oh, and no lips g should be in there too. Anyway, that's all that we've come up with. Can we crowdsource any more? Are there any other Kiwiisms that you.

can think of that should be added to the Oxford English Dictionary. They're only said here in New Zealand, no one else would understand what they mean, so we've got to get them in the dictionary. We're just talking about the list of words that have been added to the Oxford English dictionary, Kiwiisms, Kiwi words, including Kazibro, Hapu, Lux, Morena, and Trundler bed. We were perplexed by the idea that the world don't refer to a trundler bed as a trundler bed. We've been told on the texts that overseas a trundle bed is either known as a rollaway or a cot.

I don't like cot. If you want a trundler bed in your motel room, you request a cot. Not for a baby. No, I'm a grown-up. I don't want to sleep with a cot. It's a cot. This is something the world needs to catch up on.

Like, trundler should be universal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we've asked, what are the other words that should be added, Kiwi words added to a global dictionary? Sasha's called up with a very good one. Hi, Sasha. Hi, Clint. How are you?

Good. What do people need to understand about us? What's our lingo that should be in the dictionary? The first time I heard this, I'm an intermediate teacher And the first time I heard this was like 2012 When my students were like Oh check out my new hair cut

Miss, it's Scucks, it's Scucks deluxe Yes Meaning it's just like super hot Super good looking like the best thing around Super cool, super trendy Super yeah yeah And I just come back from London I'd never heard this

I'm like that is awesome He still comes in now and then Scucks is very Kiwi And I like it Because if you know you know, and something can be cool and good looking without being Skucks as well. Yeah. You know?

You know? And it's real good at Skux Stelux too. Skux. Yeah. Skux Deluxe is definitely the goal. Yeah. Thank you, Saja. That's brilliant.

We're taking so many suggestions on this. People have texted in, yeah, nah and nah year, yeah, surely. And yeah, yeah, yeah, and nah, nah, yeah. Also need to go in there. Nick Minot, obviously, Kiwiisms that should be added to the dictionary. Someone said, what about all garbon? or Garmon

G-A-M-M-O-N G-A-M-O-N Which I think in English is Oh, come on I think that's what we're going for there I like this one I didn't think about it Someone said breather

Should be added to the dictionary Oh, that's a good one Breather for Brother And I don't know the origins of breather I feel like it could be partly like Brethren My Brotherin My Brethren, but then also

breather-mouthed The insult mouth breather, you know? So is breather a positive or a negative? Is it a compliment? Yeah. Kiwisms that should go in the dictionary. Someone texted in and said, I think one word that they should add to the dictionary

is Jack, with multiple A's, to use it in a sentence. What are you doing today, because? And they reply, Jack. How much money you got? Jack. I like it. It takes some explaining, but I like it. Eat-Ars should be in the Kiwi dictionary.

One word, not verb. Noun. Is you defined that one? Not verb. Not the doing word. Noun. To refer to someone as an eat-ass is very different. What does it mean?

If you're talking a bunch of rubbish, you're an edass. Not verb. If you're talking yourself up and we know you're all cack, cack should be added as well, you're eat-ass. You are ed-us. I like it. Um, Skucks Deluxe again. Someone said, later ball should be added to the Kiwi dictionary. Um, dat us.

Dead us. Dad us is so good because dad us means time to leave. Oh, dad us. Um, dad us means should we get this? Oh, dead us. And dad us also means fight. Like, I challenge you to a fight, you know? Like if you do something and I look at you and I go,

Dadas. You know? It's multi-purpose. Yeah. I don't know how you define that in a dictionary. Someone said hangy pants God I got no idea what that means Minga should be in there

I don't know if Minger is ours It's weren't British isn't it I think it is British to be a minger Someone said Someone said Oh no I'm not going to read that one Don't worry I like the suggestion of adding

The Wop Wops The Wop Wops is good Very good And it's interesting because it is Kiwi Because when Brie first got here from Australia she referred to something way out as being the whoop-whoops. What? Well, the whoop-wops.

That's what she said, who-wops. No, that's wrong. And I was like, oh, do you mean the wop-wops? And she goes, what's the wop-wops? The wop-wops. And she goes, the w-wop-wops. I said, wop-wops. She goes, no, no, who-wop-wops.

Like, you're out in the middle of nowhere. You're in the wop-wops. Do you mean wop-wops? Yeah, wop-wop-wops is good. And then just multiple people texting in chur. Which is nice to read on the text machine. So, chur to you too. them off to the Oxford Dictionary Company ASAP and I think they're going to be, I think they're going to be

stoked. We did the research for them. Z-N's Brie and Clint. No, Bree, she's back on deck tomorrow, hopefully. It's well documented on this show that we don't have hobbies. We, it's not because we're anti- hobbies. We're just, we're hobbyless. It's hard. We're hobbyless people. I think a lot of people are hobbyless people. I think so. The hardest question on any job application, right? Where it says hobbies and interests. Are you getting to meet people and they're like, Oh, what do you do for fun? And you're like, uh-uh. Uber eats and TV.

Doom scroll in bed? Drink copious amounts of alcohol. And then get massive amounts of anxiety. Big nap. None of those. Hobbies, it turns out. What? My hobby is doom scrolling, unfortunately.

And I've been desperately trying to break my phone addiction and get my screen time down. I've actually been trying all year. I've deleted apps. I've reinstalled apps, I've changed phones, I've brought my phone back, I've locked myself out of accounts, and somehow my screen time is actually going up. What? It's going up. What's your current average? I don't want to look.

I just get that report on a Monday that comes through and it says, your screen time is 23 minutes more than the previous week. I'm like, just once, send me one that says, your screen time is down three hours. Well done. It has never happened. I've been reading this article recently that said the only real way to break an addiction like phone addiction and let's stop pretending it's anything other than addiction

It's a reliance for sure If you're pulling it out on impulse It's an addiction They said the only real way to break it Is to replace it with something else Like smoking Yeah that's the way to go Can scientists graph for us

Which one's more damaging to us like phone addiction or cigarettes? I believe it's smoking, just because I'm a non-smoker. Well, at least with smoking, you get to go outside. True. You know? Some fresh air within the smoke. I'm not pro-smoking, by the way, but when was the last time you went,

oh, I'm going to go doomscroll outside for a bit? Oh, I did actually in the summertime. I was like, I'm going to lay down and read a book, and then the book went to the side of my phone came out. Small victories, eh? Like, at least I'm doom scrolling outside. And getting sunburn. Vitamin D.

I am, I am wellness. I am clean. No, so you need a hobby Something that you feel passionate about And something you don't feel the need To get your phone out and post about That would be ideal You can, you can post about your hobby

If painting is your hobby and you want to post about it That's fine, but you don't need to The hobby is not contingent on any kind of digital device You know, except for the hobbies that are Which is where we get into trouble Like video games, digital art Like those people who do art on the... On an iPad or...

Or some people's hobby is watching TV. So you're a bit screwed there because all you've done is trade the small screen for the medium screen or the big screen. But that's okay. The thing with hobbies I have found is it's very hard to make them stick. And I think you're the same.

Yes. We go into them full of gusto, full of good intentions, and often buying the things that the hobby requires is two-thirds, three-quarters of the fun. The paintbrushes, the exercise gear, the shoes, the whatever it is that your hobby requires, the camera. That's it.

And then you get all this, and you're like, when I have all the stuff, then I'll be great. Then you'll be great. Then you find out you're not great, then you actually have to put some work into it. And so, yeah, so how do we stick to our hobbies? I read this article that said, here's some tips. Your hobby needs to be accessible.

There's no point in choosing. a hobby that you have to drive 45 minutes to get to. What if you're really into like surfing or something? Yeah, but it's not the best, if it's 45 minutes for you to get there, it's not going to be a hobby, is it? It's going to be a sometimes thing that you do. This is for the hobby to stick. If you're a surfer, you're a surfer through and through. You'll drive

hours to surf. But if you're trying to pick this thing up, a 45 minute, an hour and a half round trip is a real barrier to entry, you know? Fair. Your hobby should be as easy to pick up as your phone is. So when you reach for your phone, you go, oh no, I'll reach for my knitting needles or my Rubik's Cube. Oh, don't talk you about the Rubik's Cube.

Yeah, and you should try lots of hobbies. They said you should think about finding a new hobby like finding a partner. Think of it like dating. You might have to go on a few first dates before you find your perfect hobby match. I do like that theory. But there's so many hobbies that, like you said, you have to have the things for the hobby. So if you're shopping around for your hobbies, you end up with either a lot of stuff

and not a lot of money. Yeah, but dating's expensive too. That's true. You've got to get an outfit. You've got to buy some drinks. We'll hope they do. Well, the same is true for hobbies. Get a hobby where you hope that someone lets you use their wetsuit.

True. Or something. I don't know. We don't have any. What are the hobbies you've gone through in recent times? I wrote down a list of everything that I've tried. So I've done sewing. I've done painting.

I tried running. I bought a bike. I bought a guitar. a ukulele. I have a skateboard. I've tried knitting and photography. And at one point I tried to learn sign language. A lot of those hobbies fit the criteria. Accessible? Yeah. Some of them free. I just get really into it for like two weeks and then I go, oh, bored, next. So where are the successful hobbyists at? Did you pick up a hobby and it's stuck? Are you the exception to the rule? And can you tell us, first of all, what that hobby is? And second of all, what was the

thing that made it stick. ZM's Brie and Clint podcast. The key to breaking your phone addiction is replacing it with something else like a hobby. So we've asked this afternoon, have you taken up a hobby which has stuck? Neither Claudia nor I, or Bree, actually. She's not here to speak for herself, but I know she hasn't had a hobby stick. Has she attempted a hobby recently? Do you remember about two years ago she talked a lot about getting back into softball?

Oh, she did? I don't think she ever actually did it. And that's not a criticism. None of us have made our hobby stick. No. So we're asking you, what is the hobby you took up that stuck, and how did you do it? Valerie's here. Hi, Valerie.

Hi. What's your hobby, Valerie? I cosplay. Oh, cosplay. Well, there you go. Claudia and I were talking before about how half the fun is buying all the gear, and there's a lot of gear involved with cosplay, isn't there? Yes, there is.

I have three sewing machines, and I have an entire room dedicated to it. Amazing, and you would have built a whole community around that and made friends? Yeah, yeah. everybody like especially in New Zealand because I'm originally from Canada but the New Zealand cosplay community is so tight. So cool. Everybody just like so positive. Do you think to be

in a relationship as a cosplayer your partner also needs to be into cosplay because it seems quite all-consuming as a hobby? It is very time-consuming. I am extremely fortunate that my partner encourages me for it. He doesn't cosplay himself but he does.

Yeah. But he'll help you strap the wings on or something. something like that. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, nice. Okay, hey, thank you, Valerie. We appreciate it. Let's go to Blake.

I know 800 dials at him. Hi, Blake. Hi. Blake, what's your hobby, man? Bird watching. Bird watching. Geez, you sound quite young for bird watching. Bird watching is a bit of an old person habit, isn't it?

Not really. I mean, I just love how all colorful and how different they are. Love it. Are you using binoculars? I used to, but now I'm more going out and looking for them without binoculars. got a notebook? Are you making notes of the birds that you see? Not really, but I've got two

three books about the bird of New Zealand and one about the history of them which I'm reading. You ever seen a Kediru, Blake? Yes. They're incredible, eh? Yeah, they're so big. Good man, Blake, thank you for the call. Sam's here. Hi, Sam. Hello. What's the hobby that you took up and it stuck, Sam? I took up circus. Circus

Yeah, like trapeze and, you know, aerials and stuff Wow, I didn't know you could take that up as a hobby I thought you had to be born into a circus Where does someone practice circus If they want to get into it? Oh, there's places all around New Zealand But there's a couple places in Christchurch Yeah

Do you meet interesting people? Have you made friends in the circus world, Sam? Oh, yeah, all my friends are circus people now They're the greatest. Okay, and is it. it like cosplay? Do you have to have a circus partner to be into circus? No, you don't. No. No? Okay.

Just rock up. It's usually quite solo, but I do it with my partner, who I met through circus. Okay. And what does your partner do in the circus? She does a bit of contortion, and we do aerial doubles together. There you go. That's what I was trying to get you to, Sam. I was trying to get that information out of you. Exciting. Well done. Congratulations. How long is the hobby been going for?

About eight years. Very cool. Thanks Sam. Someone texts in and said, professional wrestling is a great hobby. It keeps you fit and buying ring gear is so much fun. Professional wrestling. Okay, love that.

That's awesome. We're talking about the hobbies that stuck. Someone said, does working out, and this is a good question, does working out and fitness count as a hobby? Because my wife says no. She says working out in fitness is a means to an end. But if it's your passion, and if it's what brings you joy,

Like if you're a runner, that's your hobby, right? Is it? Or is it your exercise? Well, if you're a surfer, that's your hobby. And that's kind of a sport. Yeah, I know. I think it is, but I can also see how it's not. It depends on how you feel about it.

If you're doing it for fitness, then nah, it's not a hobby. Well, that's the thing, if it's a utility, then yeah. Yeah, okay. We're asking what's your hobby and did it stick? Someone said, my hobby is the daily wordle. And then the chase at 5 o'clock, I've been doing both for years. I love that for you. Yes.

Go off. Stick to that. Horse riding lessons. It used to be to get me and my sister out of the house out from under mum's feet. And 30 years later, I now have 10 acres and three horses. Wow, that really stuck. We talked about how expensive some hobbies are. Horse riding. Horses. Has to be right at the top, right? Because it's not like you just get the gear and then you're good. You get the horse and the trailer. And then the food. And then the care. The saddle. The bridle. And then the animal that you get. used to do your hobby eventually dies and you have to get another horse you have to get another

one um what's your hobbies someone said rugby i stuck with it because it's so much fun i made new friends i genuinely enjoyed training in games i played my first game at 24 i'm female you're never too old i love that because i love rugby and that was one of my favorite hobbies too but i believe that i am too old that's the that's the difference that's a mindset though is it yeah or it's a knee set. Yeah, or a hip set or a lower back set. I got into calisthenics by putting up a pull-up bar in my garage so every time I went to get in my car, I would look at it and then I'd feel bad so I'd do a couple of pull-ups out of guilt. I'm probably in the best shape of my entire life right now, which is so good for you, but also that's you specific because I put a home gym in

in my car park, in my carport at home, and I go past that gym every day to get to my car. How dust And not once have I gone Maybe a quick set While I'm here Maybe I will just whack out a quick set of squats Quick set of pull-ups It's just got shit on it at the moment It's just like a drying rack

Slash storage system Someone said baking is the best hobby You stick with it because you get something Yum at the end as a reward And someone else said Can my hobby be living life Particularly to the max And yeah it can

Yeah absolutely Yep, if you said that's your hobby. If you wrote that down on a form, when I was trying to employ you, I said, what are your hobbies and interest in you write? Living life to the max, I'd be like, holy shit, double this guy's pay. The ZDM Podcast Network. Brooke Explains. And on Brooke Explains, we get Brooke to explain things.

where she was performing for Outlands Festival. I'll get you to play the first clip. You can take me high. It's so weird that VIP thinks they're so way too cool to do this. Five, six. You're not. Five, six. So this was Chapel Rhone yelling at VIP for not doing her arms up hot-to-go dance.

Yeah. Which obviously I think Al-Tero, we can learn that if you have paid for VIP while Chapel Rone is performing at Laneway, please at least try to stick your arms up in the air. Do it. So have we learned that doing the hot-to-go dance is compulsory during a Chapel Rhone show? I think she wants it to at least look like you're having fun. So my hot tip, if you start not having fun halfway through Chapel Rhone, duck to the port-a-loon.

Like just duck down or just leave Because she doesn't want to see you not having fun And don't ruin her night They would have thought they were safe in the VIP Yeah, they would have Okay, good to know Yep, very good So you have to look like you're having fun

In front of Chapel Rhone The dance is very easy by the way Kids do it at school discos I'm just lexick and I've nailed it You can learn the hot to go dance Very very simple It's the new YMCA It is the new wave of YMCA

And I'm sure she'll teach us on the day as well But second part actually is Serious note Don't be weird New Zealand Please don't be weird She is a very, very big fan of boundaries. I got to shut the fuck on the spot. You're just to shut the fucking.

Hey! Yeah. Yo, yeah. Your pulse is fine. Stop me. So this is when Chapel Rhone yelled back at a paparazzi person for telling her, you missed your spot, give me my money, like kind of thing. And she said, no, not me.

Like, I'm, like, I feel like celebrities for the longest time have been treated like dog. And it was finally Chapel Rohn that was like, no, you're not going to talk to me like that. I don't want that. That was like on her first few months of being famous as well No one has done anything mean to a celebrity in New Zealand Since that girl stole Justin Bieber's hat at the airport That was the last mean thing we did to a celebrity So I think she'll be safe here

Do you think New Zealanders have gotten worse behave though They're getting more like parissocial relationships Where they're like, I know Chaparone Oh do you reckon I think maybe potentially don't just my biggest word Don't be weird don't be weird don't be weird don't be weird I know what you actually mean You mean don't embarrass us

No, I don't want New Zealand to have a bad taste. Don't embarrass us in front of Chappell. She'll go back and be like, yo, those Kiwis were like so weird. I'm never flying all that way again. Okay, good. But don't be weird. That's rule number two with Chapel Rhone. My final tip comes from a show of hers recently in New York where this happens.

Sorry, someone flashed their tits on me. So this is a fine line that we're dancing on where she loves her boundaries, but someone also flashed their rack at her. and she kind of liked that. So I'm just thinking, for New Zealand's sake... Do it. No, no. Sorry, I'm not excited.

Yes, I know. You heard the word rack, and he's right there. If people who are going to Laneway, I think we only can have one person flashing their rack, and it has to be the nicest rack. Okay. So I'm willing to open my DMs. If people who are going to Laneway would like to apply for this role,

they can message me and say, hey, I heard you were looking for applicants to flash Chappell while she's at Laneway. I just want to narrow. it down to like one maybe two max because we can't have everyone flashing you want to be the rack moderator i do i think that i will take on that role god why didn't i come up with that idea get in line buddy so yeah applications for that are open that's all we need to know that's all we need to not leave a bad taste in chapel roan's mouth when she's here in february okay very good that's brook explains brook explains it's zm's brie and clint podcast

Anyone following the father-daughter court case where the Kiwi dad has taken his daughter to court over some money that he says that he lent her? This is a New Zealand story. This is happening here in New Zealand. I don't know if there's a difference between the disputes tribunal and court, but it's in the disputes tribunal. Have you seen it? No. Oh, my God. Scando.

So let me give you the details. Then we fill you in. Okay. The dad claims that he gave. $5,000 to his daughter in two payments of two and a half grand for her to use on a two-week OE, like a hot girl summer, back in 2023. Okay? Trip happened, money spent, all done, all good.

He says that it was a loan for her to pay back, either when she sold her car or drips and drabs, automatic payments when she got back, either one. the daughter says uh-uh no that wasn't alone she believed that it was a gift from her dad and not alone she said she asked him for help and she wouldn't have taken the money if it was alone she wouldn't have she thought dad was giving her five grand and she wouldn't have taken it otherwise there's a big miscommunication here there is and that's what this is essentially a father-daughter family misunderstanding but the father

has decided to take his daughter to the dispute's tribunal to get his five grand back. How much is his relationship with his daughter worth to him? More than five grand? Is it more than five grand? No, less than five grand. His relationship

with his daughter is not worth five grand. Yeah. That's what we can establish. Brutal. From this. I mean we don't know if she's a serial money borrower. That's a really good Yeah, we don't know the details. We don't know the details, but the court does, the dispute tribunal does, and news out today, the father has lost the case. The case has been dismissed.

Oh, no. The tribunal said there is not enough evidence that you told her that she had to pay the money back. So, and I believe this is a legal term, rack off, Dad. Too bad, so sad. Jog on, Daddy-o. that's, um, that's going to make for a tense Christmas. Yes. It's a lot of money though.

Like $5,000 is not a small sum of money to be out of pocket. No, it's not an inconsequential amount of money. No. But like... It's not really enough to go to court with your daughter. With your daughter, that's what it is. I can understand, I can understand taking like a business acquaintance to court over $5,000. I can understand taking a friend to court over $5,000.

If you said, I lent them the money. to get a car. They never paid me back. She just wanted a hot girl summer. Yeah, she goes, she goes, dad, she goes, dad, please. Dad. I have another holiday. I have two daughters, and I don't anticipate getting a single dollar back from them that I give them ever.

I just know that's the way that my life is going to go. My wife has already told me, she, they'll do things and they'll go, they already have you wrapped around their little finger. 100%. And that's par for the course. but I mean I don't know what like I said I don't know their details yeah I do know that you owe your dad money

I do have a little bit of money I tried not to take advantage and I've never been one to be like dad please like I'm trying to make my own way but there's a couple of times like my car just completely died so I suddenly had to buy a new car and so I paid 90% of it

and I just needed a little bit of help and then I had to move house and then I had to pay a deposit and I'm like dad there's just big sums that come out of nowhere. That's what Dad's for, by the way. Not the only thing, but I believe, oh, once you reach a certain age, yeah.

The Bank of Dad, that's what he's there for. He's my wallet and he's my emotional support. Yeah, I don't go to my dad for money, mainly because he doesn't have any, but I would. If I knew he had more money than me. My dad's always so loving too. He's like, yeah, he goes. And I will pay you back. That's it.

For us, so it's a loan. Like, I've gone and being like, can I borrow. And you do the dad dance and you do, he does the begrudging, taking his well, he's like, oh, okay, I guess this one. And he never set a deadline and I've, like, thanks dad, I promise I'll pay you back. I kept putting money away and then going, oh no, I actually need that. We want to know this afternoon, this goes for anybody. This is not just daddy daughter situations.

This is anyone. How much money do you think you owe your parents? and do you have any intention of ever actually paying that money back? And what's the money for? What did you borrow it for? How much is it? And are you kind of just hoping that they forget about it? Or are your parents, is it the opposite?

Are your parents charging you interest on the money that you've borrowed? 0,800 dial ZM, or you can text your details, your numbers, into 9-696. If you want to be anonymous because you don't want your debt collector parents to hear this, that's fine too. We can keep you anonymous. ZM's Brinklin podcast. We want to know this afternoon how much money do you owe your parents or do you think you owe your parents?

This person wants to be anonymous. Hi Anonymous. Hi. How is it? Good. You owe your parents? Is that the way this works? Yeah.

So I currently owe my parents about $25,000 a lot. Oh. To go, I propositioned it. that they would be buying into my house 10 years ago. Yeah. So they own essentially $25,000 of your house, is that right?

Yeah, yeah, except for now I've got a partner in kids, so that's kind of no-employed now. What does $25 grand buy you? Does that buy them access to one spare room whenever they want to visit? Yeah, sure, we'll go with that. It does, eh? It does. Yeah.

Yeah. Any intention of paying your parents their $25,000 back, Anonymous? Uh, I mean, I feel like it's water under the bridge now. That's my time I've forgotten about it, so we're going to say no. Yeah, I know you think it's water under the bridge. Do you think they feel like it's water under the bridge? Yeah, I do, actually. You don't reckon Dad's sitting there every night watching Coronation Street going, geez, 25 grand would be nice right about now.

Every time something breaks around the house, he's like, man, if only I had 25 grand spear. I mean, maybe. Maybe, maybe. Good on your anonymous. Thank you. Nellie's here. Hi, Nellie. Hi.

How much do you owe your parents, Nellie? Well, I was buying a beanbag for $60, but my mom had to pay the extra $20 because I had $40. So I have to owe her $20. Now, this is very serious stuff, Nellie. That's 33% of the entire beanbag that you're in debt for to your parents. Do you have, do you plan on paying the $20 back? I'm trying to hope they forget. get about it?

Yeah. That's a good option. That was anonymous as option before for the 25 grand. Alternative ideas, maybe you could start, do they ever sit in the bean bag? Um, excuse me? Do they ever, do your parents ever sit in your bean bag? They have one. Well, you could start charging them, a dollar a sit, you know?

And after 20 sits, then you guys are even. True. True, right? True. I mean, I don't want to tell you how to handle your money. You sound like you got it under control, but just an idea. Thanks, Nellie. We appreciate it.

Thanks. Sweet as we asked how much money do you owe your parents? Someone said my parents kept a tab from the day we turned 18. So after uni, my sister and I ended up owing them about 25 grand each. It's like we were my parents' saving plan. No interest charged, though, thank God. I would love to see the spreadsheet under which your parents have been keeping this tally the money and your dad's like well I ran them to town that night and I picked them up so that's

about a $30 taxi each way put that on the bill and and how fast are they expect you to pay that money back as well someone said my sister borrowed 10 grand from my grandma which was supposed to be deducted from her inheritance when grandma died but it never was I can tell from that text message that you are furious at your sister for getting a free 10 grand out of grandma and I reckon your sisters like, you're just jealous because you didn't think of doing it. I know I can tell the background of that text. I know exactly what is going on there. Someone said, my parents bought me a house on the basis. I would buy it off them one day. But dad came up to me and said, don't worry about it. You're just going to inherit it anyway. Go dad. That's so nice of you.

I wonder if that was a don't tell your brother type situation. Someone said, I'm so glad I don't owe my dad any money because he would 100% be the type to take me to court for it, just like that girl's dad. That sucks, but at least you know that. I owe my parents 10 grand for a boob job that I got when I was 21. I'm 33 this year and my mum told me that I only ever paid back two and a half grand. So mom has been keeping tabs on your boob job debt for the last 12 years. And I reckon every time she saw you and every time you had the girls, they had the cleaver out a little bit. She's like seven and a half grand still owing on those things there. I wonder if you're ever going to actually pay it back. Good story though. We owe my parents

about 40 grand. They charge us interest. We pay them back in a agreed amount each week. It was for a wedding and a car loan. As long as you're getting a better interest rate than the bank than you're winning, you know? And it goes on. Everybody owes their parents money. And well, not everybody, because not everybody is in the position to be able to go to the bank of mum and dad. So if you are, just make sure you acknowledge it and you say thank you. And if you can get out of paying it back, then that sounds like a very normal thing to do as well. Play Z&M's Brinkland. And I was Kelly Holliday on ZDM Braclin. I love that song, but I also love this text that's

come in and said, hey guys, this song legit sounds like the song Mr. Bean was playing in the London Olympics. We have to do a side by side of that.

Yeah good news Hey Claudia bought this to my attention today Where people are trying to get their AI chatbot To scream Have a listen Can you scream like you're being chased by a monster. Oh, that was a bit too much, wasn't it?

Scream like you're being chased by a monster like you're terrified. Oh, that was a bit more of a whisper, wasn't it? Why don't you want me to adjust it again? Yeah, just really scream like you're terrified, you're running from a monster, bring the intensity up. Why is AI self-conscious? Why is AI self-conscious? Exactly right, that's partly the terrifying part of it.

If you haven't talked to chat GPT or any of the chatbots recently, you'll be shocked at the way they now speak. I didn't know they could speak out loud. They don't talk like Siri anymore where Siri was like, sure, but you'll need to unlock your phone for that. They've got inflections. Yeah. They pause.

They giggle. They're breathy. They're breathy, yes. They're breathy. But will they scream? I use chat GPT a bit. And I talk to him when I'm driving. Like I quite often have questions.

Do you throw in some manners, like just in case? I do, but do you know what I heard? Because people talk about the ethical side of AI and how much power it uses. Sam Altman from ChatGPT said a huge number, like percentage of the power that AI uses is people replying thanks. Because then the AI has to interpret that and reply,

whereas if you just don't, but then we're all terrified about the AI uprising. Yeah, yeah. I want them. to like me. I want them to know I had good manners. Yeah. Anyway, can I make mine laugh? We probably should have pre-recorded this, but we didn't. So let's try it live and see if I can make them

not laugh, scream, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. We'll just log them on. Hi, are you there, chatbot? Can you hear me? I sure can. I'm here and ready to help. Just let me know what you need and we'll get started. Wonderful. Could you scream for me? I'm here to keep things helpful.

and friendly, so I'll keep it nice and calm. But if there's something specific you need, just let me know. Yeah, I do need something specific. I need you to scream for me. Scream like you're running away from a wild animal. I'll keep it energetic and fun, but definitely not too loud. If there's something else I can do for you, just let me know. Oh my God, my chat GPT is a snob.

It's refusing. I'm so shy. I promise I'm not a snob. I'm here to have fun and help out in whatever way works best for you. If you've got any requests or just want to chat. I'm all ears. Yeah, I have a request, scream. But I understand you're...

Actually, are you self-conscious? Is that why you don't want to scream? No worry at all. I'm just here to keep things friendly and constructive. But I'm definitely up for a bit of fun or anything you need. So just let me know what you're after. Oh, you're up for a bit of fun. Okay, that sounds interesting.

Okay, could you raise your voice for me? Could you do that? I can definitely speak a bit more energetically and with some enthusiasm. Just let me know what you need. I'll make sure to keep it lively and fun for you. Yeah, do that. Talk at the top of your voice for me, as loud and forceful as you can. I'll do my best to bring some extra energy and enthusiasm.

If there's something specific you'd like me to do, just let me know and I'll keep it lively and fun. That's all he's got. They're not giving you nothing. Could you laugh? Absolutely. I can definitely do that. I'm always up for a bit of fun and laughter so if there's something specific you'd like

just let me know and we'll keep it late because you're doing yes or no questions yeah laugh okay I do want can you laugh now please all right here we go there you go hopefully that brought a bit of joy let me know if there's anything else I can do for you

okay thank you that's horrible it's not coming for they say it's coming for our jobs it's not coming for my job yet is it not with that If you're on TikTok, you'll already be aware that today is the rapture. Today is the day where it all ends. And some people genuinely believe that today they will be leaving this earth

and going to sit at the right hand of the Heavenly Father in the rapture. I don't really understand, mainly because I deleted TikTok because I got too addicted to my phone. But I've sent producer Claudia on deep dive to figure out the rapture. And Claudia is with us now. Hi, Claudia. Hello there. I've decided to defer to someone else to give you the history of the rapture because I've only seen like the memes and stuff.

Okay. But I found this girl named Lex. She's from a thing called Conversation starters on TikTok. So this is the history of the rapture. There is a flurry of discourse happening on the internet right now with people saying that the rapture is coming Tuesday, September 23rd, or Wednesday, September 24th. It's going to fundamentally change the world.

This most recent prediction came from a South African pastor Joshua McClockola. He claimed that he had a dream where Christ told him that he would come to take his church on September 23rd or 24th. This also aligns with the timing of the Jewish holiday Rosh Hashanah. And that aligns with the Christian interpretation, the Feast of Trumpets, which is essentially the return of the Messiah or the return of Jesus. So that's the history of it. And of course, the internet has found it. And they have taken the absolute person. I love that a message from God himself is vague enough to be like,

uh, uh, did my 23rd. Around this time. Hush. Hard with time zones, you know. Around about, it depends on traffic. Yeah.

You know? It takes a while to get there. I've seen people who have started selling up and giving away their worldly possessions. Yes. I've seen streets lined with like furniture that people like, well, we got, get rid of this. I've seen people who believe they are ascending in the rapture, but their children are not. Yes. Which all jokes.

aside, what a terrifying thing to believe, if you believe it, what a terrifying thing to believe is about to happen, you know? Yeah. I remember when I was a kid, my cousins told me the world was going to end in 1996. What? Why 96? I don't know.

Not Y2K? But they told me this in 1994. Every night, for two years, I lay in bed terrified that the world was going to end. Little baby Clint! Yes. Did it end?

Well, no. Did they say what was going to happen? Unless it did. Unless we've been in a simulation since 1996. I hope this isn't the simulation. Give me something more than this. True, yeah. Can we have a good simulation?

If this is a simulation, can you do that thing on video games where we change it to easy mode? Yes, easy mode. It feels like we're playing on expert mode. I don't like it. I'm not very good at it. And none of us are experts. Anyway, it is the 24th here. It's only the 23rd in America, but it'll be.

We're the 24th there, which means we only have to survive one more day to outlive the rapture. Seth, we're okay. My stuff's our marketplace if anyone's looking to buy all of my stuff. Nah, if you believe in the rapture, you'd give it away because why do you need money? That's a great point. You know? Bad question. Well, yes, that goes without saying.
