Yeah, Clint and Roberts for the first time during this entire global pandemic has gotten COVID. Can't believe it. I've spent the last three and a half years bragging, joking, but secretly believing that I was immune, that there was something different about me, that I was special. And then wham, bam, this morning, little faint double line on the rat test. And I'm human,
Starting point is 00:00:43 Bree. Turns out I'm human. Turns out you are human and not Superman like you have been thinking for the last three and a half years. How are you feeling? I don't know. Fine. It's funny because I felt fine. I had a little bit of a runny nose. And then as soon as you get the positive line, you're like,
Starting point is 00:01:00 oh, does my throat hurt? Yeah. Am I feeling a little bit achy and sore? Am I? So I don't know what I'm imagining and what is real. Yeah, it's definitely a bit of a mind game as well. But as long as you're feeling all right, we will press on with the show.

Starting point is 00:05:16 Yeah, I really enjoyed that. Bree and Clint. I'm at home in isolation with COVID-19. I'm like the Prime Minister, Bree, during the election campaign. Does that mean I'm in line for a massive record-breaking loss sometime soon? I don't know. Let's hope it's not an omen. Let's hope it's not for this Sunday.
Starting point is 00:05:34 Oh! So long as the boys don't get COVID. So long as they don't get it. The All Blacks wouldn't be testing for COVID, eh? Because they'd be too worried that one of them has it. They'd just be going. They're more likely to get bed bugs, I think, at this point. Yeah, that is a problem over there at the moment.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Massive outbreak of bed bugs, real bad. Yeah. Look, I need to talk about something this afternoon because I've been told a story from a friend and it's really disturbed me. Can we all agree that sometimes toddlers can be creepy AF? Like toddlers, and I truly believe this, like little kids, and it's a certain age group where I feel like they can connect, if you believe in this stuff, they can connect more
Starting point is 00:06:21 to the spiritual world or their, I don't know what it is, but it's creepy. Well, if you believe in reincarnation, then some people believe that toddlers haven't lost the ability to remember their past life yet. Yeah. They haven't developed any sort of prejudice or anything around that. So if that is a thing that toddlers are the ones to know about it. Oh, this next story that I'm about to tell you guys,
Starting point is 00:06:47 strap in because this is so creepy and this is going to give me nightmares for weeks, I reckon. So a friend of mine messaged me yesterday and she knows I work in radio and she said, I heard this story in my mother's group and I need to tell you because I think it might be the creepiest story I've ever heard and you can tell it on the radio.
Starting point is 00:07:08 And I said to her, I was like, all right, this happens quite often, but we'll see how we go. Anyway, it did not disappoint. So apparently there's a woman in her mother's class that has a young daughter, a toddler. I believe she's like real young. She's like maybe three, maybe two and a half, three. Well, she can speak.
Starting point is 00:07:29 She can talk. So she must be three. Yeah, two or three. So one day she said that she was bathing her daughter in the bath. So she was giving her daughter a bath and her daughter looks up at her and says, mummy, I used to be, you used to be in my belly. Okay. And she goes, oh, like, do you mean that you used to be in my belly? Because I mean, that would make sense. Yeah. That's what I'm thinking. She's just confused. Someone's explained the concept to her and she's like-
Starting point is 00:08:06 A little bit confused. She's got it around the wrong way. She said, no, I know that I used to be in your belly, but before that, you were in my belly. No, no, no, no, no, no. Apparently, this mum was like, what the hell is going on? And she said, what do you mean? Like, what do you mean? Like, what do you mean?
Starting point is 00:08:25 Like, no, you used to be in my belly. She goes, no, I used to be your mum. And at this point, this woman was like, what the hell? She had lost her mother before she had had her daughter, right? So quite emotional for this woman. She's thinking, what the hell? Her daughter then was like, I am. She was like, pretty much like I am your mum. And the mum at that point goes, okay, how am I going to test this? Because this is just too creepy. asked her a question that only her mother would know. Yep. She said, okay, if you used to be my mummy,
Starting point is 00:09:12 where did we used to live? Like growing up, like where did we used to live? Yeah, good question. Yeah. The child looks her dead in the eyes and says, we used to live in this particular suburb in Melbourne, obviously not in these types of sentences, but she said we lived in particular suburb in Melbourne, obviously not in these types of sentences, but she said we lived in this suburb in Melbourne. I can take you there.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Nah, are you sure? No, the story gets even creepier. The story gets creepier because the next day, so this woman apparently still lives in Melbourne and the daughter directed them to their family home, the old family home. Do you know this person that told you this story? Are they a reliable source?
Starting point is 00:09:50 If that's true, that is terrifying. I'm good friends with the person who told me the story, but she heard it from a mother in her mother's group. In your mom's group? Yes. And the mom said to her, she's like, I don't believe in this stuff, never have, but this has really rocked me to my core and I can't explain it.
Starting point is 00:10:09 If it's real and if it happened to you, you would be forced to believe it because there would be no other explanation. How do you explain the daughter being able to direct them to their old family home that she has never been to. And then play it forward. If she does believe that her daughter is the reincarnation of her mother, what do you do from there? Like what happens to the mother-daughter relationship after that? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:37 I feel like the daughter has to discipline the mum and she takes over the role as disciplinarian. And she's like, you know, she's the child mummy. She's literally a kid mummy. It's going to make it a lot easier really because the kid is going to have to start cooking all the dinners and doing the vacuuming. Can you imagine? Can you imagine? Anyway,
Starting point is 00:10:56 as I said. It's like Freaky Friday. It's like Freaky Friday. It's just freaky all round. It's creepy. Toddlers can say some creepy stuff and I want to know from people, I'm scared to open the phones for this because I know we're about to get some creepy stories. But 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. What was the creepy thing that your toddler said to you? I don't know if I have the mental stability
Starting point is 00:11:26 to deal with these next phone calls, but we're asking you, what was the creepy AF thing your toddler said after I heard this real creepy story from my friend about pretty much her daughter is a reincarnation of her mum? Yeah, she believes that her toddler is the reincarnation of her own mother who passed before her daughter was born.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Yeah, well, she didn't believe it. She doesn't believe in that kind of thing. But when the daughter then directed them to their old family home, she was like, this is too weird. I just told that story to my wife, Lucy, who does believe in things like reincarnation. And she said to me, she looked me dead in the eyes without emotion. She said to me, that story doesn't
Starting point is 00:12:11 scare me. That's normal. That's what I hope for from our children. That is not normal. That is not normal to have your child as your mum that has passed away. That's crazy. Let's get some creepy toddler stories on the phone. Hayley's called up. Hi, Hayley. Hi, Hayley. Hi.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Tell us, Hayley, was it your toddler that said something really creepy to you? Yeah, so we'd not long moved into our place and I was sort of sitting on the lazy boy, reading him a story, and he looked directly down our hallway and he just got off my knee and went and slammed the door.
Starting point is 00:12:46 And I was like, what was that about? And he was only like two or three at the time, and he said, oh, it was the monsters down there. Oh, no. And I kind of just brushed it off, you know, like they do as kids. It's like, yeah, okay. And then it was about a week or two later, we sort of pulled up our driveway, and I turned around,
Starting point is 00:13:04 and we sort of parked outside my ranch slider, he looked inside the house and he goes, see man, see mum, see the man with the scary eyes? And there was nobody there. But it was like a few months later, I sort of met up with someone I had known for a long time and they dropped me off and they're like, oh, shit, that's my brother's old house. He passed away there. Oh, no, I hate this story. I hate it. Oh, Hayley. And I sort of told him about what my son had said
Starting point is 00:13:37 and he goes, that's so freaky. He was like, because my brother had the most piercing blue eyes. I'm done. I'm done for the day. I just got a little cold shiver go up my neck. Oh, Hayley. Were you just totally freaked out
Starting point is 00:13:51 for the next however many years? Time to move house. Yeah. I kind of did, but then I didn't because I didn't ever feel unsafe here or that there was anything wrong. Obviously, Charlie felt something,
Starting point is 00:14:03 but we've lived here now for... Yeah, he wasn't worried. Yeah, but we've lived here now for 13 years, and there's never anything bad that's happened. So we've been like, maybe it's a good thing someone's looking after us. I don't know. Honestly, Hayley. Honestly. Okay, thank you, Hayley. We appreciate it. Let's go to Pam.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Hi, Pam. Hi, Pam. Hello. I don't know how much more I can take, Pam, but tell us what was the creepy thing your toddler said? Well we went over to England in 2012 and you know we were boring the kids senseless by going to all these
Starting point is 00:14:35 historic places. We went to Salisbury Cathedral and you know in some of those old churches over there the floor was made up of tombstones you know from people some of those old churches over there, the floor was made up of tombstones, you know, from people that got buried in it. They were important people in the church. And I was walking along with my four-year-old,
Starting point is 00:14:51 who's a little bit older than a toddler, but we hadn't, like, said anything to him about, you know, anything about the floor. We were just looking at the architecture and stuff. And then he said, Mummy, you have to walk on the cracks. And I said, oh, why is that? And he thought, you can't walk in the middle. They don't like it.
Starting point is 00:15:07 I said, who doesn't like it? And he's like, the people under the floor, they don't like it. They'll come out with their swords and get you. I would be hightailing it out of there so fast. What did you say to that, Pam? I was like, okay, walking on the cracks. Walking in the other direction. To this day, Pam only walks on the cracks. Yeah. Thank you, Pam.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Oh, thanks, Pam. One more from Sharon. Oh, Sian, rather, on our 800 dials at him. Hi, Sian. Hi, Sian. Hi, how are you? Tell us, Sian, I'm a bit rocked at the moment, but what was the creepy thing your toddler said?
Starting point is 00:15:46 It was not as creepy as the first two, but I was driving to work, well, driving my baby to daycare last week, and my son goes, he's four. He goes, Mummy, I had a dream last night, and I was like, oh, what was that, Bubba? And he goes,
Starting point is 00:15:59 that you were taken away by aliens in your sleep. And I was like, oh, really? And he was like, yeah. And I was like, oh, really? And he was like, yeah. And I was like, what do they look like? He goes, they were dark green with really black eyes. And I was like, oh, no. What do you mean not as creepy? This is just as
Starting point is 00:16:15 bad. I think a man standing in a driveway with red eyes is creepier than aliens. Oh, God. I feel like he might have just seen a cartoon with aliens in it or something, but still. You know, you think about the fourth kind movie. Does anyone, you know, you remember that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:31 It's the kids. They just, they know things. They see things. And Sian, do you, have you ever felt like you have been abducted by aliens? Well, see, you don't know now, do you? Yeah, well, you just never know. You question everything. It's true. Okay, thank you, Sian. I need to get through. This text kind of sits out. Oh, see, you don't know now, do you? Yeah, well, you just never know. You question everything. It's true.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Okay, thank you, Sian. I need to get through. This text kind of sits out. Oh, yeah, go. No, you go. No, you go. Okay, I'll go with one. Someone said, it's not supernatural, but it's still creepy. My four-year-old always told me she loves me so much that when I die, she's going to put me in a wheelchair and take me everywhere she goes.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Oh, hell no. Hell no. I mean, lovely that going to put me in a wheelchair and take me everywhere she goes. Oh, hell no. Hell no. I mean, lovely that the daughter already cares that much about the mum, but hell no. This one is so creepy. They said, my daughter, who was two at the time, was playing with some old toys that my mum had. She picked one up and said, this was Neil's toy, wasn't it? He was my uncle that had passed away years before she was born.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I checked with my mum and the toy was his. That's terrifying. No, thanks. No, thank you. That is, oh, oh, God. I don't think I can take anymore, honestly. There's so many more texts coming through. We might do a few more on the podcast later on
Starting point is 00:17:47 because I just need a break. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Zima Cathy. One of the biggest Netflix shows in the world of the last... One of the biggest this year, to be honest, was that David Beckham documentary. They very lightly touched on the cheating scandal.
Starting point is 00:18:09 It took up about eight minutes of four hours worth of documentary. And the woman involved in that cheating scandal, Rebecca Luz, has finally spoken out, Dane. She has. She's come out and said that he can say whatever he likes, but I understand that the truth is he is playing himself as the victim,
Starting point is 00:18:27 trying to make me look like the liar, make me look like I've made these stories up, is what she said. So she is suggesting that, you know, she is telling the truth and that those two have connived a story of lies. Interestingly, like, you know, we haven't really heard of her in a very long time. She picked up 5,000 Instagram followers Did she?
Starting point is 00:18:48 So there's a little look out, look out, influencer hashtag collab coming through She's got a book coming out, Dean The Rebecca Luz memoir If she wanted to put out a book, now is the time to do it You know, I would have to agree, regardless of what you think of her, that he definitely played the victim. I don't dislike David Beckham at all, but he kind of made it seem like the affair happened to him and Victoria, not because of him and another woman. Would you agree, Bree? Yeah, I didn't really like how they, that was the one part of the doco that I felt they didn't do
Starting point is 00:19:25 very well. It was quite awkward. They danced around it. He didn't really take that much responsibility. They didn't mention her name. They didn't really go into it. They breezed over it. And now I guess she's speaking out and standing up for herself.
Starting point is 00:19:42 There you go. She's a new audience. She does. And she go. That's the latest live out of Los Angeles. Yeah, she does. Yeah, and she can. She can. She can. Brian Clint, that's the latest live out of Los Angeles with a Hollywood correspondent.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Brian Clint. The original reality TV show family, the Osbournes, did you know they were one of the first families and one of the first reality shows kind of like that. Yeah, it was revolutionary at the time, eh? It was like, wow, we're watching these people's real life. Yeah, and then afterwards, obviously, we got the Kardashians and Paris Hiltons and the Nicole Richie show and all that kind of came after the Osbournes. Well, the Osbournes actually have a podcast that they do weekly.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Did you know that? No, I didn't know that. Good on them for keeping their foot in the game. Oh, they're ahead of the curve, mate, and the whole family is on the podcast, Kelly, Jack, Sharon and Ozzy. And last week on the podcast. Well, not the whole family. Remember there was actually an older daughter that chose not to be on the reality TV show
Starting point is 00:20:50 and they just never talked about her. Do you remember that? What? Yeah. There's another one? There's another daughter. Yes. Is there?
Starting point is 00:20:57 There's another member of their family who had the foresight before that to go, no, I don't want my privacy invaded. This is before reality TV was even a thing. And she said, no, I don't want my privacy invaded. This is before reality TV was even a thing. And she said, nah, I don't want to be on the show. Wow. I didn't even realize there was another member of the family. So I guess she made the right decision. And this week, their podcast has gone viral after Ozzy Osbourne shared a story that is really, I guess,
Starting point is 00:21:26 very honest about a time where on stage he just used to wet himself. Take a listen. When I was on stage, I used to go, oh, piss on the stage. Just piss. Because wet anyway. Throwing water around. Oh, Lord. Thanks for sharing.
Starting point is 00:21:47 He is dangerously old. But then he was dangerously old in 2003 when we were watching the TV show as well. I feel like he hasn't aged in the last, like, 30 years. He's just always been that old. And then he's slowly getting. He's aging really fast. Yeah. Yeah, he's quite hard to understand,
Starting point is 00:22:07 but he said on there that during a certain time where they were performing that there was so much water that was being thrown on stage and in the crowd, he would just wet himself. Do you remember when the Black Eyed Peas were really, really, really famous, those pictures came out of Fergie who had peed her pants on stage as well accidentally time to run off stage and then and then lady gaga confessed that because she does so many costume changes during her show and it's so busy and she's not part of a band she is the show that she would run off stage mid costume change
Starting point is 00:22:41 just quickly pee in a bucket and then someone would throw her Chloe Nicks outfit onto her and she'd run back on stage. They say, you know, being famous is all glitz and glamour and they're right. They're spot on. Look, it's happened to the best of us. Season one of Celebrity Treasure Island, I believe I've told this story before,
Starting point is 00:23:03 but we were about to film this very serious scene that wasn't on the schedule. And it kind of just came up and they said, last minute, they're like, Bree, you need to head down to the beach. You need to film this real serious scene. And it was me talking to some of the last contestants that were on the island. And I said, do I have time to go to the toilet? Like I'm busting for a wee. And they said, no, there's no time, but it'll only take 10 minutes and then you can go bathroom. It'll be all good.
Starting point is 00:23:35 And I said, okay. Anyway, they've bloody carried me down to the beach. Not carried me, but I got in this car. We've headed down the beach. And I was sitting there waiting for 45 minutes because in the world of TV that's how it works they say you know this is when it's going to happen. It takes 10 minutes. Exactly so I was waiting 45 minutes down on this beach and I thought oh so many times I thought I should just go into the bush and do a wee but there's people everywhere there's like producers there's just like people everywhere and I was like nah it's going to be 10 minutes. And so I just kept holding on and
Starting point is 00:24:08 holding on. Anyway, finally they were like, okay, we're ready to go. We're ready to film this really serious scene. And I've stood up and I couldn't hold it anymore. And I want to say like a quarter, I did a quarter wee, like a quarter of it. A quarter wee. A quarter wee and I clenched those muscles and I managed to save the rest of it. But I was wearing a tan coloured short. Yeah. And very visible on a tan coloured short. And I wet myself on television. If a quarter wee means a quarter of the amount of wee that you had
Starting point is 00:24:46 and you came out, that's quite a lot of wee. Yeah, look. That's got to be a good 50 mils of wee. Oh, it was enough to be visible. Like, it was definitely visible. Could have been worse. More than a shot glass? Yeah, definitely more than a shot glass.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Yeah, no, that's going to be visible, yeah. Highly embarrassing. When I watched it back on TV, I think they, no one told me or said anything to me, but I think they edited around the Wii, like, so to speak. Oh, it's amazing what they can do with AI and editing and that sort of thing. I just imagine the contestants and you're like,
Starting point is 00:25:22 one of you will be going home at the end of this challenge. And Sam Wallace is like, I'd love to take you seriously, lady, but did you just piss your pants? Sorry, can we stop the cameras? Has the woman running the show just literally pissed her pants in front of us? Yeah, look, and it's only, things have only gone up since then. So, you know, that's the way you got to look at it. I thought we could open the phones this afternoon. 0800 dials at M
Starting point is 00:25:47 or you can text us on 9696. Tell us about the time that you wet yourself. Oh, gross. It's not gross. It happens to the best of us, Clint. You know, sometimes you just can't help it and you can't hold it any longer. I'm just kidding. We won't judge you if you do want to share, especially if it's funny. 0800 dial ZM or you can text it to 9696. We'll get your stories on after this.
Starting point is 00:26:14 It's a safe space here, people. We've all done it. Well, I especially have. When did you wet yourself? I wet myself earlier this year in front of my partner when I was holding obviously it in for too long and then I believed I sneezed and then I kind of looked at my partner and was like, oh, I'm going to wet myself. And it turns out I did.
Starting point is 00:26:37 You haven't even had your kids yet. I know. I have no excuse. Anyway. Imagine what it's going to be like after that. Oh, it's going to be absolute chaos. I think we kick it off with this text, which is no excuse. Anyway. Imagine what it's going to be like after that. Oh, it's going to be absolute chaos. I think we kick it off with this text, which is an absolute ripper. Someone said, I was 36 weeks pregnant and it was my last day before maternity leave.
Starting point is 00:26:55 I'm a nurse and we were resuscitating a patient. We shocked him with the defib and when he roused, he managed to punch me in the lady bits. I wet myself but everyone thought that my waters had broke. So I weed myself in front of the patient, his family and about a dozen other medical staff. Oh, that is not your fault. Nah, you've got an excuse.
Starting point is 00:27:23 You've got an excuse. You were pregnant and someone punched you in the lady business. Someone punched you. An unconscious you've got an excuse. You've got an excuse. You were pregnant and someone punched you in the lady business. Someone punched you. An unconscious person punched you. Yeah. Strangely, everybody who has called up for this wants to remain anonymous. So let's go to our first one. Anonymous caller number one. Hi, welcome to the show.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Hello. Hi. Yeah, so I was in teaching school and my practicum You know how you go into practicum And you have to go in and teach for like four weeks So I was with Oh yeah, like job placement, yep
Starting point is 00:27:56 Yeah, so I was on placement I was out on like a field trip with the class And me and my teacher both needed to go to the loo Oh no And I said, oh, can I go first? Because I'm absolutely busted. She was like, no, no, no, I'll go first. I'll be back real quick.
Starting point is 00:28:12 And then she forgot and went and talked off with one of the people at the place we were at. And I was busting. And you know, when you're a student teacher, you feel like you can't leave and you couldn't leave the kids alone. Absolutely. was standing there and it just came out
Starting point is 00:28:29 No! and for the rest of the year they called me Miss P No! Miss P! Please tell me your last name Please tell me your last name doesn't start with a P
Starting point is 00:28:43 Okay good you over. Yeah. Please tell me your last name doesn't start with a P. With an R. Okay, good. That other teacher has screwed you over twice. You said you were busting, she didn't let you go, and then she forgot about you altogether. That's so unfair. Are you sure the other teacher didn't think that you were one of the students and wasn't letting you go to the toilet? Yeah. I don't know what happened, but I was standing there for so long and it was so harsh.
Starting point is 00:29:11 And then I ended up wanting to go. I started walking away and just came out. Oh, you poor bugger. And it's in front of all the students and you're like a new teacher. Just horrible. Thank you, Miss P. We appreciate it. Let's go to anonymous caller number two. Hello. Hello, anonymous.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Tell us, my friend. It's a safe space. When did you wet yourself? Well, 18 year old me was on a Kentucky Europe and we were in Paris and they wouldn't, no one would let me go to the toilet. There must have been no kind of public toilets around. So I tried a couple of restaurants and they wouldn't let me go. So I continued to walk around and then all of a sudden just felt the urge to go and just in the middle of the street just had to do a half squat
Starting point is 00:30:04 and just let it out. Wait, what? You just were like, oh, it's happening. I'm wearing in the street. I'm in Paris and I'm wearing. Yeah, it just had to go. And so all my friends around me
Starting point is 00:30:17 absolutely hysterically laughing. And so I had to then get back on the bus and go back to our campsite. But thankfully I had a bit of a jersey that I could wrap around my waist. Did you have to get back on the bus full of Kentucky people in your pee pants? Yeah. Oh, anonymous. See them shorts.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Yeah. Got it. That is so embarrassing. That is like that scene at a bridesmaid's. At least you were with your friends. Yeah. Yeah. And a whole bunch of strangers.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Oh, you poor thing, Anonymous. Someone texted through and they said, the day after I gave birth, I was wearing an adult nappy and I thought that I was hemorrhaging slash bleeding. This is super serious. So I panicked and I called the midwife to check the bleeding. When I took off the adult nappy with her there, it was just wee, and I completely emptied my bladder into this massive adult nappy,
Starting point is 00:31:15 and I was so embarrassed. But I suppose that's what happens after giving birth to a massive baby. You've got an excuse. You're all good. You've also got a nappy on. That's what it's for. I reckon that one's fine. It's way better than peeing yourself
Starting point is 00:31:28 in the middle of the street in Paris. Absolutely. Absolutely. I agree. One more anonymous caller on 0800. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hey, what a team.
Starting point is 00:31:39 How are we? We're well, Anonymous. Tell us, when did you wet yourself? So I had a raging UTI at one stage. Not just a UTI, a raging UTI. Oh yeah, exactly. Was driving home
Starting point is 00:31:53 from work and I had to go through a few days. Went for a wee before I left but on the way home I started to need to go. Couldn't get to a loo. Thought I was going to make it. As I got to my street, was like, yep, cool. Yeah, nah, didn't, didn't. Pete in the car seat.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Oh, no. And then it was my mum's car as well. So then she had to then take it out afterwards with a, you know, on a towel. You're like, hey, mum, I think you better put a towel down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, mum. Whoopsies. Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:32:28 This is too much. How glad were you that it wasn't your car? Oh, you know, very, very glad. Swings and roundabouts. Thank you very much. I love this text. Someone said, I was once choking on a carrot and my husband had to give me the Heimlich manoeuvre and I lost control of my bladder and weeped myself in front of them.
Starting point is 00:32:47 God, there's just so many things happening in that story, but at least you're still here with us. That's the main thing. Thank you for saving my life. Sorry for peeing on you. I apologise, yeah. Bree and Clint. Time to play some Google Down.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Do you feel lucky? Well, do you? It's time for Bree and Clint some Google Down. Here we go, guys. A Wednesday, we always Google Down. Opportunity to see who is the fastest fingers in the West. Also, you can pick up some KFC chicken dollars if you've texted through the name of the person that's going to take out the game this afternoon. It's going to be Clint, Claudia or Ella.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Here's how the game works. I've put these exact questions into Google and I'm looking for the most common answer, the first answer that comes up. If you yell it out first, you get a point. First to three takes home the W. I'll be ready. I'm playing from home today,
Starting point is 00:33:44 so I've just kicked my kids off the iPad to get that extra, extra bit of broadband speed going on, you know? That's what we like. It'll be the advantage that I need. Let's see if it pays off. Here comes question number one. How many seasons of
Starting point is 00:33:59 Pokemon are there? 25. I'm going to say it's a dead heat. An absolute dead heat. I'm going to say it's a dead heat. An absolute dead heat. I'm going to give Ella and Claudia a point. What about Clint? Clint was way too slow. Nowhere near.
Starting point is 00:34:16 And it sounded like you said five. I did actually. Rush over there. All right, here we go. Point each of the girls. Question number two. Who voiced Casper's voice in the movie Casper the Friendly Ghost? Christina Ricci.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Malachi Pearson. I'm going to give it to Ella. Malachi. It was Malachi Pearson. Amazing grace. Sorry, sorry. What? I don't know. Got excited.
Starting point is 00:34:44 The spirit has taken over her. The ghost Casper. The reigning champ from last week, Ella, is off to a flyer. Clinton, Claudia, you need to get this one to stop her. Question number three. Chick one, two, can you guys hear me? Yeah, loud and clear. Yep, coming in loud and clear.
Starting point is 00:35:02 You have to actually say an answer, though, to be in the game. Yeah, okay. Okay. Cool, cool, cool. What is the most poisonous berry in the world? I don't know. Deadly Nightshade? No.
Starting point is 00:35:16 I believe that was from The Hunger Games, which isn't real. No, no, no, that is not. That's Nightlock. Oh, yeah, you're right. But not the answer that came up when I Googled That is not. That's Nightlock. Oh, yeah, you're right. But not the answer that came up when I Googled what is the most poisonous berry in the world. The two girls are out. If Clint can get this, he'll be on the board.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I got it. Can I answer? You're already out. No, that's the rule. You know the rules. If you yell out an answer, you've used up your turn. I forget. Pokey weed.
Starting point is 00:35:43 No. No one gets a point. We were looking for elderberries. Oh, I didn't get that. What? That's what comes up. I forget. Pokey weed. No. No one gets a point. We were looking for elderberries. I didn't get that. What? That's what comes up. Elderberries. That's what comes up for that question.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Don't you have those in your poke bowl? Are they in your ciders? I have no idea. Next. Question. Look at Ella. She's so keen. She's like, let's get this show on the road.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Hurry up. Two to Ella, one to Claudia. Question number four. Who invented autotune? Andy Hildebrand. That is right, Claudia. Oh, who's in we? I was going to say T-Pain.
Starting point is 00:36:15 She is in this game. No! Get away! Ella v. Claudia. Question number five. How many teams are there in the NFL? 32. Damn it!
Starting point is 00:36:29 Claudia takes it home. She is the winner of Google Down this week, which means, Nikki, you pick up the 50 KFC chicken dollars. Oh, that's epic, guys. Thank you so much. Thanks, Claudia. No problem. No worries, Nikki.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Have a good afternoon, all right, mate? You guys too. See you later. Google Down for another week, Ella's gutted. Hey, but. No problem. No worries, Nikki. Have a good afternoon, all right, mate? You guys too. See you later. Google down for another week, Ella's gutted. Hey, but you were close. You were in it, though. I feel like you're building momentum. Yeah, I've found my rhythm, and that's what counts.
Starting point is 00:36:55 She's using my techniques, which is what she's done. No, no, I'm not. All right, kids. It was close. We all did well. Yeah, we all participated. I forgot you were there, Clint. It was definitely a three-horse race, that's for sure.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Yeah. Yep. Absolutely. That's what I say. It was very tight. Next on the show, oh, we don't have to hear about Ella's dream, do we? I always ban dream chat on this show. I banned dream chat, but Ella has come to me.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Producer Ella has said to me, Brie, I had the greatest, most interesting, incredible dream you will ever hear about in your whole life. And it's short and sweet, which I think you'll appreciate. You know the rules on this show. If it's boring, we will bring your mic down. Cut.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Okay? Okay, that's fair. Alright, Ella attempts to tell us about her cool amazing dream next. Brie and Clint. Producer Ella comes to me before the show and she says, Brie, I know you hate dream chat. You think it's super boring unless it's a sexy dream and you're involved. But I have had one of the greatest dreams ever.
Starting point is 00:38:00 It's exciting. It involves all three members of the show and yourself. Yeah, you'd think I'm making it up, but I'm not. I truly woke up this morning like, wowee, this needs to be shared. Mate, you know the rules on this show. If it
Starting point is 00:38:17 dreamed... Honestly, when will you learn your lesson? So here's the deal. If Clint and I get bored at any stage, actually, and Claudia as well, all of us, if any of us get bored at any stage, we will buzz you out of Dream Chat because Dream Chat is boring.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Okay, that's fair. I don't like boring Dream Chat either, only if it's interesting. Shall I dive into it now? Okay, when you're ready. I'm nervous. We're on the edge of our seats. So, yes, it involves you, Claudia, Bree, and
Starting point is 00:38:52 Clint. We're at the pub where we go on Fridays for our lunches, so that's the scene. Claudia then starts looking at me and starts spilling out this lovely, like, compliments and you're like eye contact with me. I'm like, oh, okay. Turns out, Claudia, you're like eye contact with me i'm like oh okay turns out claudia you're proposing to me yeah oh my god i know so i was like okay claudia i didn't know
Starting point is 00:39:12 you felt this way about me me neither it kind of like my dream kind of jumps to me chasing you around town to kiss you and that's my dream. Bree! She proposed to me. That didn't involve me at all. That was just your crush on Claudia coming out in dream form. I didn't feature in that at all. I wasn't in it at all either. No, because you're there
Starting point is 00:39:35 witnessing the proposal. That was a really good dream. Thank you, Claudia. I like that. You've got my approval. Well, you would say that. Honestly. Was it okay?
Starting point is 00:39:44 No, I'm backing myself. It was good, you would say that. Honestly. Was it okay? No, I'm backing myself. It was good. I would say that you told it with good energy. Thank you. Here's the problem, though. It was boring AF. No, I'm going to jump in. It was boring AF to everyone apart from Claudia.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Yeah, that's the problem. So you should have told that dream to one person, and that would have been Claudia. I don't know what you guys are talking about. 9-6-9-6. Tell me if it was good. They are passing comments that you make to Claudia. You go, I had a dream about you.
Starting point is 00:40:14 You proposed to me. Yeah, that's what you do in a normal workplace. It's a dream to be an entire story. Agreed. It's not a story. There's no beginning, middle and end to this. There's no plot line. There's nothing.
Starting point is 00:40:24 That was a good story. That's just a text message. You could have. There's no plot line. There's nothing. That's just a text message. You could have... You know what? I know I could have. In the next election, if one of the politicians gets up and bans Dream Chat, they've got my vote. I'm so mad right now.
Starting point is 00:40:36 I think we need a vote. Are we keeping Ella in or are we kicking her out? Clint, are we voting? I'm voting a thumbs down for the Dream Chat. What are you voting? I thought you a thumbs down for the dream chat. What are you voting? I thought you told it with great energy, great enthusiasm, but there's nothing in that for me as a thumbs down. You have two thumbs up from me, but that's not enough, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:40:53 But what about my thumbs? You are... I didn't want to be in your team anyway. It was a good try. It was a good try. We'll see you again next week. No one has tried harder to make dreams interesting than this show, but it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Dreams are boring. Dreams are boring. We should make a song. Oh, my God. We should make a song about it. Hey now, hey now. No, the only thing worse than listening to someone's dream would be listening to a song about someone's dream, you know?
Starting point is 00:41:22 I have a song right here. Here you go. Last night I had the strang right here. Here you go. There it is. Dream chat over for another week. It's time for a birthday banger. All right, here we go. Your birthday's banging all in unison.
Starting point is 00:41:46 The number one song's on your 16th birthday. Who are we kicking it off with? I love banging in unison. Let's go to Yvonne first. Hi, Yvonne. G'day, Yvonne. Hi, how are you? Good, mate.
Starting point is 00:41:56 How are you going? I'm really good, and I'm so pleased you could look back on those paper records and dust it all off, you know, and find it. I like your sense of humour, Yvonne, but, you know, you're not even nowhere near one of the oldest we've had, so not a worry at all. We've had our ZM archivists go into the basement and dig it up for you, Yvonne. It's ready to go.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Oh, awesome. Thank you. What is your birthday, Yvonne? 24th of June, 1960. All right, it is in hieroglyphics, Yvonne, but I have managed to decipher it. You were 16 in 1976, and here's your birthday banger. There was something in the air that night
Starting point is 00:42:37 The stars were bright It's a banger, Yvonne. It's a banger. It's a great one. It is, isn't it? Were you an ABBA fan, Yvonne. It's a banger. It's a great one. It is, isn't it? Were you an ABBA fan, Yvonne? Was that your jam back in the day? Oh, my goodness, yes.
Starting point is 00:42:51 And a bit of Led Zeppelin as well. Really? Oh, yeah, nice. I see what you're putting down, Yvonne. I like your style. Well, stick there. Okay, wait a minute. It's a great option from 1976.
Starting point is 00:43:03 It is a good option. Let's go to Stephanie next. Hi, Steph. Okay, wait a minute. It's a great option from 1976. It is a good option. Let's go to Stephanie next. Hi, Steph. Hi, Steph. Hi. How's your day been, Steph? Fabulous. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:43:13 How are you guys? Good to hear. Yeah, not too bad. Clint's a bit under the weather. He's got COVID. Oh. Yeah, first time. First time.
Starting point is 00:43:22 He's a bit late to the party. Trying to see what it's all about. Well, Stephanie, we'd love to do your birthday banger. What is your birthday? 22nd of February, 1917. All right. That means you were 16 in 1986. And, Steph, on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Starting point is 00:43:41 How will I know? Just feeling. How will I know? 16th birthday. This was number one. Oh, it's a ripper from Whitney Houston. How will I know? Are you a fan? Yep. Well, you know I'm a fan. I named my dog after her.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Yeah. That's how much I love Whitney Houston. That's a beauty stiff weight there. We're going to do one more birthday banger for Daryl. Welcome to the show, Dezza. G'day, Daryl. Hello. How's your day been, mate?
Starting point is 00:44:12 It's been crazy, actually. We're getting ready to move up to Auckland, so it's been packing and moving everything. Isn't it the worst time of your life when you have to move your house? Yes, and we've literally got 27 days and a bit of a rush. Oh, well, let's try and get you there with a bit of an upbeat birthday banger. Let's see what you get. What's your birthday?
Starting point is 00:44:39 January 27th, 1994. All right, that means you were 16 in 2010. And back on your birthday, Daryl, this was number one. I'd like to make myself believe in this planet Earth. Oh, Banga from Owl City. Fireflies. Fireflies. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:00 What do you think, Daryl? I actually dislike this song so much. It was overplayed all the time. Yeah. A bit of a one-hit wonder from Owl City, if I do remember correctly. Nah, he had that one other song with Carly Rae Jepsen. Oh, yeah? He had, um...
Starting point is 00:45:20 How'd it go? Oh, it's always a good time. Oh, yeah, that was a banger. No, that was a banger. No, that was a banger. I think better than this one, I reckon. Oh, I like Fireflies. I think it's a great song. Okay, does that mean you are voting?
Starting point is 00:45:34 Because we do need to vote on which one we want to hear. I'm going to vote for Fireflies because I feel like the other two songs are too old and crusty to play. I'm going, how will I know Whitney Houston? I am predictable, Claudia. Are you voting on the song or are you voting on Whitney Houston? No, that is a great Whitney Houston song because I will come out and say there is some Whitney Houston songs
Starting point is 00:45:56 that I wouldn't vote for. That one is an actual banger. Well, we are split. So we go to Claudia for the decision. Claudia, what is the winner of Birthday Banger today? Is it a song from 1976, a song from 1986, or a song from 2010? I will
Starting point is 00:46:12 say I love every single one of these songs and I may listen to all of them on the way home. Yes, you will. But I was born around the same time as this Firefly's Birthday Banger. Not born then. That was around the time of my Birthday Banger. How old are you? Are you 13? I'm eight years old.
Starting point is 00:46:26 Are you 13? No, I was 16 around that time and obsessed with Fireflies. And I think I have to give it my vote. Well, there it is. Daryl, even though you hate it, you've just won birthday banger. Awesome. Thank you. Sorry, Daz.
Starting point is 00:46:40 I tried to save you. This was my ringtone. That's okay. I'll listen to it now. All right. Daryl, good luck with moving house, tried to save you. This was my ringtone. That's okay, I'll listen to it now. All right, Daryl, good luck with moving house, mate. Thank you. Brian Clint, here's your birthday banger. From January of 2010, you're on ZM.
Starting point is 00:46:59 You would not believe your eyes if 10 million fireflies. Brian Clint. Games are bursting out the sea. Brie and Clint, there's a winner of Birthday Bang Up from the year 2010, Owl City and Fireflies. Clint, I thought my life was over this morning. I nearly had a full minty bee, panic attacks, the whole deal. So here's the situation, right?
Starting point is 00:47:25 I've woken up extra early this morning. I woke up at 6 o'clock because I needed to get a heap of work done and I said I'd be a part of this comedy show called Slideshow Rodeo where you make a PowerPoint about a particular topic that they give you. Anyway, it's on in a couple of weeks and I got up early because I was like, I need to get a jump on this because I'm going up against actual comedians. And I came to the realisation that I didn't have PowerPoint on my laptop. And I was like... Oh yeah, you have to buy it, eh? Well, yeah, you do. But I tried to buy PowerPoint so I could get a start on this work. And I realised that my laptop wasn't compatible
Starting point is 00:48:07 to be able to download PowerPoint because it's been so long since I've done an OS update on my MacBook. Okay, yeah. Like I just, for some reason, I used to be so good at it, like updating my OS system to the new thing, but I just have missed, I don't know what's happened but my laptop, you know, lately has just been
Starting point is 00:48:29 horrendous. I would not update that laptop either if I were you. It's at the stage of life where it sounds like a jet engine when it's just trying to do a simple task, trying to take off and you can almost see smoke coming out. Yeah, look, it's too late because I did the update and tried to download
Starting point is 00:48:48 the new OS system onto my laptop and I thought everything was going well and it was at a certain point that my computer made a noise that sounded like this. There it is, the jet plane. Yeah. And I was like, oh, my God, I have just killed my laptop. That has the last four years of my entire life on it, and I have not backed it up. I have not backed up.
Starting point is 00:49:17 Do you not back your shit up? Nah. Who backs it up these days? No one backs it up, do they? Quite literally everybody backs it up. All your photos should be on the cloud and all your files should be on an external hard drive. You do video editing.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Nah, the cloud's a scam. Surely you've got an external. Are you backing up everything? Yeah, 100%. Producer Claude, are you backing up everything? Never in my life. I don't think I've ever done that. Hey, Claudia, ally.
Starting point is 00:49:49 Ally. Ally. Are all your photos not in the iCloud and everything like that? Nah, like I've got some, but I'm just not good with that technology. I've got the free cloud and now it's full. Same. And I don't want to pay for any extra storage. You've got to pay $1.69 to make this go away.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Not in this economy. At the point where my laptop completely shit itself, I went into full panic mode and started thinking about all the stuff that is on there that I can't get back. There's memories, there's work, there's contracts, there's just so much stuff on my laptop. And then I started to get real angry at myself. And I'm like, you're an adult.
Starting point is 00:50:27 Why didn't you back your stuff up? Like, this is ridiculous. Anyway, I was like, okay, what can I do here? I decided it had to be a full system reboot, which, I mean, I didn't really know what I was doing, to be honest. I was going to say, are you qualified to execute a full system reboot? Absolutely not. I just kind of pressed a few buttons and hoped for the best
Starting point is 00:50:51 and I got this screen that kind of looked like it was doing something and there was like one white line and it said two hours and 45 minutes and I was like, okay, there's hope. Lucky you got up early. You know, there's hope. Lucky you got up early. You know, there's hope. There's a chance. Anyway, about an hour and a half into this, I was like, I'm too stressed.
Starting point is 00:51:11 I can't be here. So I went to the gym. I came back. The laptop still said an hour and 45 minutes and I was like, it's gone. The laptop's dead. It's gone. RIP. I cancelled all my meetings because I was so stressed
Starting point is 00:51:25 and I needed my laptop. And then we get to the point after an hour and 45 minutes and I was like, okay, here's the moment of truth. Either something happens and magically my laptop turns on or I've lost everything forever. What do you think of your drum roll on this? This is a pivotal moment. I hear the sound that everyone wants to hear.
Starting point is 00:51:54 She's alive! All of a sudden, I have no idea how, but my laptop has magically turned back on. It's updated the OS system. All my stuff is still on the desktop. I'm a genius. And now tell me you've had some time to cool down since then. Tell me you've purchased
Starting point is 00:52:13 the Google Drive. You've purchased the 1TB subscription. You've hit auto sync. All your stuff is now backed up. So next time this won't happen to you. Nah, I'm not going to do any of that. I mean, it's not going to happen again. It's, you know, you. No, I'm not going to do any of that. I mean, it's not going to happen again. It's, you know, one-time thing.
Starting point is 00:52:29 It's not going to happen again. I'm pretty safe. I thought we could ask people this afternoon because I feel like there will be people in the same boat as me that don't back up their stuff and something devastating has happened and you've lost everything. What went down with your laptop where you lost everything? Are you like me and do you not back up? I feel like there's a lot of us out there. We like to live on the edge and the edge did not pay off for me this morning
Starting point is 00:52:59 or did it because I thought I'd lost everything. Four years of stuff on my laptop. My screen went black. I got the crazy, you know, Apple rainbow wheel, the wheel of death. And three hours later, my laptop resurrected. On the third hour, it rose, Clint, from the dead and it came back and all my stuff was there. I can't explain it.
Starting point is 00:53:25 It's a miracle. You have been given a lifeline by the technology gods and I feel like you're not going to heed their warning whatsoever. But that doesn't matter. You've got your stuff back, so don't worry about it until next time it happens. Yeah, I think so. I think I just need to live my life and, you know, deal with things as they come. Let's talk to other people who didn't back up and lost everything.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Casey, what's the go? What happened? Oh, this is traumatic to relive. But I was at university and I had two assignments due the next day. And I'm one to leave things to the last minute as is. And I just finished them, went to dinner and came back and my laptop had died. It completely crashed. I don't know what happened, but everything wouldn't turn on. finished them, went to dinner and came back and my laptop had died. What? It completely crashed.
Starting point is 00:54:06 I don't know what happened, but everything wouldn't turn on and I didn't back anything up, did I? Casey. So I stayed up the rest of the night. I can understand why you wouldn't, yeah. Wait, you're saying not one assignment, there was two. There was two. What did you do at that point?
Starting point is 00:54:24 Did you just put something together to submit the next day or did you just take it? I powered through the night. A lot of energy drinks and coffee was consumed and re-typed up two assignments and handed them in on time. And they passed. And they passed. And you passed. It's a win-win. Sees get degrees, baby. Sees get degrees. Nice work, Casey. I can imagine how traumatic that would have been, though, like reliving that. Horrible.
Starting point is 00:54:47 I feel it with lots of tears, lots of tears. Oh, man. Oh, thanks, Casey. Let's go to Grant. I know $800 at him. G'day, Grant. Hello, Grant. G'day.
Starting point is 00:54:57 How are you guys? Not bad. This story is quite a sad one, Grant. What did you lose on a laptop? Wasn't me. I'm in the laptop? Well, it wasn't me. I'm in the IT game, but it was a friend. I wouldn't do this. I'm not that silly.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Grant, can I ask, do you back up, Grant? Well, I actually do. But, yeah, that's not because I haven't had issues in the past that I should have backed up. Gotcha. I like the previous caller, especially at uni. And I would recommend that you back up everything right now, Brie. Yeah. While it's still running.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Look, I'm going to be completely transparent with you, Grant. I'm not going to learn my lesson and I never will, I don't think. Well, that's no surprise. But tell us, Grant, what did your friend lose? Yeah, so we had a bit of a discussion about cryptocurrency one time. Okay. And his mum said to me, or said to him, that, oh, I bought some of that Bitcoin many years ago. Anyway, we did a bit of research, and long story short, we ended up finding out that the money that was transferred to an Australian company equated to exactly 500 US dollars, which was 500 Bitcoin that she purchased 11
Starting point is 00:56:07 years ago. So I did the numbers. I had a look back at the currency exchange and it was 500 US dollars exactly. And the Bitcoin at that stage was worth $1 each. Okay. That, at the time when we looked at at it was a touch over $44 million. Not true. This can't be true.
Starting point is 00:56:29 This can't be true. Absolutely true. Now, I have looked for ages and I have looked through old email, old files on the drives, backup, some drives, old hard drives from laptops, tried to restore them. I feel sick. And yeah, yeah, honestly, it's still something that I wish one day that we might be able to recover.
Starting point is 00:56:55 You never know. You never know. And I did sort of talk about with my mate that maybe we need to get a PI in sort of to take it a bit further and see if we can go down the money chain a little bit more and see if we can find out. You need a forensic computer scientist. Because if it comes off, you would have a pool of $44 million to pay this person. Hire a hacker.
Starting point is 00:57:20 There's a heap of good hackers. Get on the dark web, Grant. You're in IT. You know how to get on the dark web. You've been there before, Grant. Elon Musk would help you out for a cut of that money. Oh, my God. It's a heap of good hackers. Get on the dark web, Grant. You're in IT. You know how to get on the dark web. You've been there before, Grant. Elon Musk would help you out for a cut of that. Oh my God. It's crazy. Imagine every time there's a family fight in that family and someone will just be like,
Starting point is 00:57:34 well, we could have went to Ibiza for Christmas but mum lost the bloody password to the Bitcoin. No longer. Oh, that's wild. God, Grant, that story is wild. I cannot believe that. Someone had to text someone who's had their hard drive
Starting point is 00:57:51 plugged into the TV and everybody was watching, like, something off the portable hard drive. The flatmates pulled it out without ejecting it and they lost 10,000 words from their thesis. No. That's not a real thing, thing is it where it says you need to eject the hard drive properly or else you'll lose stuff that's not a real thing it's never happened to me but i live in fear so i just always eject i always eject properly just to be safe oh not me i just
Starting point is 00:58:19 eject willy-nilly if you know what i mean, just whenever I want. Someone else said, hi, guys, I literally lost four years of my PhD because I didn't back up my computer. But honestly, who backs up their computers, Clint? People do. No, obviously people do. But there's a lot of us dum-dums that don't. Oh, God. Ah, well, it's only things only things right it's only four years
Starting point is 00:58:46 of your life it's only 44 million dollars of bitcoin i can take years i can take more photos not a big deal clint a video has surfaced of a mum who thinks she might have the world's youngest ever talking baby okay give me some stats. I did a bit of research because I was like, what is the record for the youngest talking baby? I don't believe it's actually monitored, but apparently the youngest talking baby actually sits with an eight-week-old baby from a couple of years ago from the States. But this mum is saying that her baby is six weeks old.
Starting point is 00:59:33 What qualifies as talking, by the way, in this situation? Is it a gurgle gargle that kind of sounds like da-da or something like that? Or do they have to form like a three or four-word sentence? Yeah, look, it's a great question. This mum believes that a single word she thinks clarifies that the baby has spoken. We've got some audio here of the video where she believes her baby has said a word. See you again.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Later, mate. Hello. Hello. Did you hear that? has said a word. Say it again. Later, mate. Hello. Hello. Oh! Did you hear that? I swear she said hello. Sounded like a grunt because she was trying to get a fart out to me.
Starting point is 01:00:15 I don't know about you. Yeah, that's what I heard too. Claudia, can we hear it again, please? Say it again. Hello. Hello. Oh! Did you hear that? I swear she said hello honestly honestly not even close embarrassing that you're even trying to claim it to be honest i know you want to everybody wants
Starting point is 01:00:37 to believe the best in their child but that there's there's nothing Well, that's what I thought, Clint, until I saw a second video that she posted where I actually believe her. I think this baby has said multiple words. I actually believe that this baby, six weeks old, is speaking in this next video. And, I mean, take a listen for yourself. Hey, hey, Mum, will you bring those milk dispensers over here? I'm bloody starving. I think I heard a couple of words in there.
Starting point is 01:01:16 What do you think? Yeah, I mean, I've never heard them referred to as milk dispensers before, but we have a linguist on our hands. We have a cunning linguist. Give him the award. That is incredible. Just six weeks old. Unreal.
Starting point is 01:01:37 Free in Clint. And that's the end of the show, everybody. First show for Clinton Roberts from home. Because you got COVID. Yeah, I hate this. I hate this, by the way. You're three years late. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:52 I hate this thing that everybody experienced in 2020 and 2021 that I'm now experiencing at the end of 2023. I hate it. Yeah, see, it's not cool anymore. You know when, like, I mean, it was never cool. Let's be real. It was never cool. But at least you were like, you could relate to other people going through it. I feel like. Yeah. not cool anymore you know when like i mean it was never cool let's be real it was never cool but at
Starting point is 01:02:05 least you were like you could relate to other people going through it i feel like yeah you're late on the bandwagon i posted a picture of my positive covid test on my instagram story because i never got to do that when everybody else did it because by the way this is my first time having covid and the number of people who just responded with either, wow, is COVID still a thing? Or, wow, where did you even get a rat test from in 2023? Blew me away. Blew me away. It's a bit like that.

No, I didn't want to be pregnant and I am, which is equally shocking. I know. And in your nose, which is wild. Yeah.
