She's 27 and she's the youngest of three sisters and she is the shortest. Welcome to the show, Eve. Eve, this does nothing for my sister theory.

I'm so sorry. No, no, it does because you said last week it only works for someone with one sister. Yeah, it works for the first two. So Eve, who's taller? Your oldest sister or the second? sister? Middle, definitely. It works.

It works. It works. I knew it. Wow. How good. Okay, you're taking on our tradies today from Wellington. He's 41 and he had a hundred stitches in his head. Welcome to the show, Peter.

Hi, Peter. Hi. How did you manage that? Dumping off the roof into a swimming pool. Oh. Peter. Had you had a few babies, Peter? A few.

Yeah. You know, as they say, I don't, I shouldn't say this out loud. No, I won't say that. No, no, no. I want to know now. Well, some people will say that the alcohol helps in that situation because your body sort of goes a bit limp and you sort of take the fall a bit better. Not if it's your head.

No, and to be honest, it's the alcohol that made you do it in the first place. So no, I take that back. Yeah. Bad advice. Peter, your buzz is tradie. Eve, yours is lady. The first of three correct dancers gets $50 cash from KFC. Here we go, guys. Question number one.

Lady. Yes, Eve. Is it three? No. No, good guess, Peter. Five? No. Tough one because only Peter was old enough to have had my space

But he still got it wrong It was your top eight Your top eight friends Okay no points there We move on to question number three Those are the days of literally removing someone from your top eight friends Was that a weird time? Yeah yeah yeah

publicly stating who are my top eight friends Now I don't even have eight friends Question number three Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this Oh aren't you Staying Oh, Eve. Sam Smith.

I'm yeah, Eve. Thanks, legend. ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast. Yesterday, Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift broke the internet with their engagement photos. Beautiful photos of their engagement. I believe the post has gotten over 50 million likes or something. And coincidentally, today, Bree and I have released our engagement photos. What a coincidence.

People will say that we've done it on purpose, but it definitely is a coincidence. What a coincidence that the exact same photos is Taylor Swift's, and we're wearing the exact same clothes and the exact same poses in basically the exact same setting. We took our photos months ago. So real talk. Brie said to me yesterday. I said I might never get an engagement, Clint.

And I said, what I want for my Christmas present this year from you, I want to go to somewhere that has nice flowers and nice backgrounds, and I want to recreate these engagement photos, you and I, and that will be my Christmas present. And you said, so that means I don't have to buy you anything for Christmas? And I said, yes. And you said, All right, then.

And have the photos done what they need to do? I think the photo. Are you satisfied with our engagement shoot? Because this might be my only opportunity. And at least I can say I have done an engagement photo shoot before. We went to the Winter Gardens and the domain in Auckland, if you guys know it, just before the show. Yeah. We put on our Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift outfits.

And we had this photo shoot. We got Ella and Claudia to take the photos for us. But it's not like the Winter Garden. are private, they're public. So there were quite a lot of people there who didn't know us and a lot of whom didn't know the Taylor Swift post either and just thought we were having a really intimate photo shoot.

We did not think it through. And I have realised now my worst nightmare is a public proposal especially a fake public proposal. It was so awkward. At one point we will. locked in this sweet embrace and these people walk past

what did they say? Something like oh that's lovely Give it to us work the camera work it. Claudia and Ella you had to shoot this. How did you find being a part of this? It was so romantic. Claudia loved every second of it. I have such a good time. I mean it was

weird to see you in that light I was into mind it's like seeing your brother and sister yeah and then I kind of wanted you to kiss kind of wanted this to end I don't know where I sit I've already loved it I ship you guys

We didn't kiss But we did everything but Yeah Our noses were pressed against each other Bree's hands were around my face My hands were around Bree's waist Clint nibbled my neck No

I was like you don't have to do that It's not in the photo He's a method actor But we had to hold the post for a while It was very intimate While they got the shot My favourite was as soon as I was like Cool I've got you both

Finally started breathing again That's because we were both Tensing our arms because we wanted them to look good. They've got such jacked arms, those two? Yeah. Anyway, the photos are out there now. They're on the Branklin Instagram page.

Early feedback is mixed. Maddie McLean from the hits said, this makes me feel icky. Yeah, but that's just because he wanted to be in the photos with you. Suck it, Maddie I got in first. Some people are criticising the fact that Taylor had a Cartier watch on and you have an Apple watch on. I also have a ring pop ring

because you didn't fork out for anything more. You think I don't deserve a real ring? You gave me a ring pop. Someone said Clint's compensating with the size of that huge ring. It is enormous. Well, if I'm compensating, then Travis Kelsey is compensating as well. Totally. Yeah.

And someone said Bree's ring looks like a butt plug. I'm out. This is meant to be a really sweet, intimate moment. You guys are just, you know, you're laughing at it, not taking it seriously. Guys, guys, guys. Someone else said, but yes, I thought Bree was already married. No? No, she's not, but I am.

Yeah, Clint definitely is. He might not be after his wife. I was before the show today, so we don't know what that's going to have. Yeah, who knows. The photos are out. We can't take him back if you want to see him at Bree and Clint on Instagram. That is Brian and Clint. One of the girls that works here, Caitlin,

she's one of my favorite people ever. She's so sweet and bubbly, and she does a lot of the web stuff for Z-M. I was having a conversation with her the other day because I've met her boyfriend quite a few times and he's lovely and they're such a cute couple and I said to her I was like how did you guys meet and she said to me

oh we actually met because we have the same best friend I said what I was like explain that to me she's like so my best friend is also my boyfriend's best friend And I said, but you guys weren't friends, and she said no. And they hadn't met each other.

Apparently not. Until it was, until recently. Well, I don't know when, but that's how they met because they share a best friend. I was like, well, I guess that makes sense because obviously if you're both best friends with the same person, it means that you connect with similar people. It means that you believe that your mutual best friend has great. taste in people. Yeah. I do kind of wonder how the best friend feels in this situation because you were his

best friend and he was also his best friend and then you guys have got together in a relationship, i.e. become the best of friends and then the original best friend's like, so what am I? You lose both your best friends. Yeah. Yeah, you're left with no best friends. Your two best friends are now even better friends with each other. Yeah.

Yeah. Doing stuff. But you guys never did as best friends. Well, they may have, but I don't know. Who knows? Usually you don't. We don't assume. No.

We don't assume. No. And isn't that interesting? Yes, a nice way to meet. Because they say that meeting through other people is ideal. Well, it means that you share that in common. You share that in common. You share a social network.

You have people in common. Yeah, normally you will like each other if you share friends in common. Yeah. Because you like the same kind of people. Yeah. Getting introduced to somebody is a great way to meet someone. It makes sense. Yeah.

So does that mean at, let's say, let's just say, if they get married. Who? Does that best friend? Oh, yeah. What side of the aisle do they go on? Her best man. Is it his best man? Do they have to be the celebrant and stand right there in the centre?

Or do they not be involved at all because they can't pick sides? Yeah, great point. Or do they walk down the aisle on all fours? with the ring take to their collar. Yeah, yeah, yeah. These are all great options. You know? These are all great options.

But isn't that interesting to think? Whose side do they stand on? Does the best friend walk both people down the aisle, one in each arm, and then at the end of the aisle, give both of them away? That's a bit cute. And say, I give my best friends to this ceremony.

To each other. To each other. I give my best friends away to each other. And then everyone cries. It's an unusual meat cute, but we like it. And we're wondering if we can find some more unusual meet-cutes this afternoon. Yeah.

Do you and your partner have an unusual meat-cute? Is the way that you guys met each other or got introduced to each other, yeah, a bit of a tale, a bit unorthodox, a bit different. Did you meet at a funeral? Or did someone quite random set you up? Like did someone, let's say you were a receptionist and someone walked in and the woman goes, God, you'd be fantastic match for my son. Yeah.

And then set you up with her son and then now you're married. Are you step siblings? That's unorthodox. Did your parents get together at a later stage in life? And you're like, well, just because they did doesn't mean we can't. Yeah. And so then you got together with your stepbrother. Yeah.

I don't know. Z names Brian Clint. One of the girls that works here met her boyfriend because, Her boyfriend and her had the same best friend, but they weren't friends. They didn't know each other, but they had the same best friend. Not that it matters, but I'm interested as the best friend a boy or a girl. Boy, I think. Yeah, right.

Yeah. Yeah. I wonder who the best friend considered their better best friend. And I wonder which one they were friends with first. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we want to know, do you guys have a good meat cute, an unusual meat cute for your relationship.

Emma's here. Hi, Emma. Hi, Emma. Hi, guys. Good afternoon. Afternoon. Do you have an interesting meet cute? But not for me, but from one of my really closest friends.

She's a very, very cute mate. How? So she was scrolling on Instagram Explore where all good people are found. And she followed this guy. And he has not a very common name. His name's Walker. Right. And she forgot about it.

She followed him. I thought he was cute. And then months and months later, she gets in an Uber and gets chatting to the driver. And this lady's like, oh, my God, you would be perfect for my nephew. His name's Walker. And she's like, oh, my God. No.

And the last name matched up. And so the anti-Uber driver set them up on a date, and now they've been dating for two years. That's crazy. I know, right? A total rando that she found on her Discover page. I have no words. Isn't that cool? Just like climbing into an Uber as well.

And the lady's like, you'd be perfect for my nephew. You'd be like, you're right? It feels like fate. It absolutely feels like fate. This man was put in front of your partner on multiple occasions because the universe was like, she has to meet him. This one. She has to meet him.

To be. Wow. That's awesome. Great story, Emma. Thank you so much. Fantastic story. We asked you guys, do you have an unusual meet cute? Someone said, I was gay and I was dating a guy for a while.

Anyway, long story, short, we found out we were second cousins. Very awkward. Hey, at least we can't make a baby. Baby. Oh, it wasn't already hard to find someone. And then you find out the one person you have a connection with. Could be worse. You could be first cousins.

Yeah, that does make it worse. Someone else said, a guy I was hooking up with thought I would be better suited to his friend. So I agreed to number swap. Ten years later, happily married. How do you feel about that? It's interesting. Imagine like, obviously it was casual. It was quite casual.

But imagine someone going, you know what? You'd be way better suited to a friend of mine. Because on one level, there's a certain amount of maturity about it from both sides to be able to go, hey, this is not the perfect relationship, but I do know someone that you'd be good for. It's the most mature thing if it's coming from a genuine place. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So long as it wasn't, hey, you should hook up with my mate. How can I palm this person off.

Ginny's here. Hi, Ginny. Hi, Ginny. Hi, guys. How you doing? Good, thank you. What's your meat cute, Ginny? I met my now husband 20 years ago in a bar that I was managing at the time

and I nicked his name and his phone number out of the Tui competition box. Wait, so Jenny, tell me, did you see him writing his details down so you knew who it was? I did. I did. I've been flying him for a little bit, you know, coming in and out every week or so. Good, because the opposite of that was you just lucky dipped it. You just put your hand in, pulled one out, and you're like, all right, I'm going to message this bloke. This one will do. Could you imagine. Imagine if you hadn't got the wrong one, Ginny.

I know. I text him when he left one night and I said, hey, aren't you going to say goodbye? And then the rest of his history. Did he think he'd won the Tui Comp when you contacted him? Well, that's the joke. Everyone was like, so did you win? Did you win?

I was like, well, of course he won. He won the major prize. Yeah, and also, no, he didn't win because Ginny took his number out of the entry, so he couldn't win. Well, it probably wouldn't have been kosher anyway, right? It would have looked like he'd. Yeah, true. Good stuff, Jenny.

That's crafty, Ginny. Good on you. I feel like you'd get fired for it now, but good on you. Yeah, 20 years ago, definitely not. 20 years ago, times have changed 100%. I did a similar thing back in the day. I've told you this story. And it definitely was not kosher.

Okay. I was working for the street team at a radio station and we were running this comp at this tennis event. And all these people had to get this tennis ball in the cup and if they did, they'd put their details down. And I think the winner got like 5K or something. And this person came over. I was like, oh, they're a bit of all right.

And then I watched them write their details down and then I got their number from there and text them. And then we dated for a year. See, not kosher, but... Not kosher. You can get away with it. I could not. You reckon?

Nah. Well, now you couldn't because you're married. And I've got this mustache. Exactly. Sam's Brie and Clint podcast. Time for The Tea with Dean McCarthy. The Tea, live from L.A. with Dean McCarthy. It has been a huge 48 hours on Instagram for Travis Kelsey.

Yesterday was the engagement news. And then today, seemingly controversial collaboration, Dean? Interesting, yes. In greatly times, let's just say this. He's doing a clothing collaboration with American Eagle. Let me just describe the collection. There's like those varsity jackets, you know, like those American varsity jackets. There's some vintage t-shirts.

Actually, really love the t-shirts are so cool. Like, I think we should all get one of those. And look, and look, the time, obviously, I mean, he announces that he's engaged to the most famous artist in the world and the next day releases the collection. Yeah, people, you're a little bit mixed, I guess you could say. It's very cool. American Eagle came out saying that he was extremely involved in the process. They always say that, by the way.

They always say that, even if they just signed it off at the last minute. But, yeah, good on him. Another couple of hundred mill probably coming down the line. Yeah, but the controversy here, Dean, is that this is American Eagle, the people who got dragged for the Sydney Sweeney. Sydney has great jeans campaign. Oh, same people. It's the same company.

And so now they've got Travis Kelsey and is it an attempt at buying some good PR? Should he be doing a collaboration with them? I don't have a problem with it, but some people are saying, Wait, hang on. Are you going to pair with them? I thought that was the... Kind of sucks for Travis Kelsey because obviously he wouldn't have known

that that Sydney-Sweeney stuff was going to happen and this would have been filmed in the pipeline for ages. Oh, it would have been. Yeah, right. If it's a whole collection, you know, it would have been a year and then that Sydney-Sweeney stuff would have happened and he would have been like, oh, bad timing for me, you know?

The Sydney-Sweeney stuff was a beat-up though. I think it was such a beat-up. It was so dumb. I actually think, and this might be controversial, I think that he will bring them back to popular. Yes. He will come from that situation. Yeah.

God, roller coaster ride for that brand. So he can charge through the nose for that. Up and down. Imagine how much they wouldn't. He'll go, hey, I'm marrying Taylor Swift. You want me to save your jeans company? Then you pay me this. Here's the bill.

And you want me to post it on my Instagram the day after I announced my engagement when my literal Instagram engagement has never been higher? Triple the price. Yeah, triple the price. Yeah. Caching.

His podcast just broke the Guinnessville. His podcast where Taylor joined him on podcast. Yes. Just broke the Guinness World Record of Most Watched interview in history. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Do we know the numbers on it? It must be enormous.

No. Yeah, I'll have to go go to it. It's the new Guinness World Record. That podcast. And that's the world we live in. American Eagle, I think. Yeah, yeah. That's the world we live.

That's the most worst interview. Okay. That's the T with D. McCarthy. The ZM Podcast Network. New Study says playing board games is associated with higher brain cognition, improved quality of life, and a lower risk of developing dementia later in life. Yeah, it makes sense, doesn't it?

The experts think that some of the effects could be explained by the social element of playing board games because you're interacting with people when you play games. They say that face-to-face play Has more benefits than playing board games alone What board games do you play alone? Solitaire, which is a card game I guess you can play any board game by yourself

Can you? Technically, yeah, like you could play I mean Monopoly Could be quite easy And Cludo also quite easy on your own My daughters, if they're fighting Often play snakes and ladders by themselves Yeah

Yeah Snakes and ladders you actually actually can play by yourself. Yeah, you can. Because it's up to the dice. Playing board games is good for stimulating leisure activities such as board games are thought to increase cognitive reserves, the brain's ability to function despite aging, injury, or disease. And they're fun.

And they make you interact with the people around you and not look at your phone the whole time. It works a different part of your brain. What's your favorite board game? I'm a big board game fan. Are you? I play. What have you got in the house? What have we got in the house?

If I came over tonight, what have you got that we could play? I've got a lot. Yeah. I've got... Have you got Twister? No. Don't have... Well, we call that a board game?

Nah. It's more... Well, there's a board. Yeah. But, nah. We've got Monopoly. It's more of an icebreaker. It is, isn't it?

We've got Monopoly, Cludeau, Boulder Dash, Scrabble, banana grams. Oh, you're sick. We've got, yeah, we've got heaps of stuff. Have you got headbands? No. Not really a board game, but... Nah, what have you got in your house? Just kid ones. Guess who?

I love guess who. Snakes and ladders. Yeah? Did you have the... What was the one? We've got kids scrabble, but the words are already on the board, so they're already spelt for you, and you've just got to put the lettuce on top of them.

That's probably the scrabble I should be playing. Did you have the board game as... Oh, we got hungry hippos. Hungry, hungry hippos in our house. We've got that. Did you guys ever play? the board game, it had the thing in the middle that you'd pop

and the dice would roll? Yes. Don't tell us what it was called. It's trouble. Trouble? Yeah. Yeah, and then you'd like move your piece and then collect pieces on the way. Yeah, that was good. Do you ever play the game of life? Yes. We played that a lot as kids.

My mum had game of life growing up. And you had to put the little people in your car as you went through the board game? I think mum's one was missing a bunch of pieces so we never really played it properly. Mousetrap? Metaphor for life, isn't it? Mousetrap was fun? Mousetrat was a banger. Yep.

Operation. Operation, yeah. What are they other goats? People, real board game, people will say things like, um, Settlers of Catan. Mm-hmm. You've never played. I've never played, but I probably would like it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Guy Williams was big into Catan when we played together. He was having Catan nights. Guy Williams would be big into Catan. He screams Settlers of Catan, doesn't he? He has. He does. What, um, I'm big into card games, though.

I'm a big card games fan Like normally if I have people over It's either a card night Strip poker Strip poker's big in our house What's that game We do love trivial pursuit Oh yeah yeah yeah

That's a good board game Yeah yeah yeah You're gonna get a recent one though Because there's lots of trivial pursuits In the cupboard at people's batches And the question's like Who's the current Prime Minister of England And the answer's like

Margaret Thatcher or some shit It's real hard You're like what year is this from We want to know this afternoon. Yeah, it's good for your cognitive brain function. But what's the board game that had the opposite effect? Which board game destroyed your mental health, tore your family apart, ruined your relationship,

and trashed your trip to the beach with friends? We nearly had to call the police in lockdown in 2020 because we were running this monopoly competition in our flat and it nearly caused a full-on physical fight. I'm not even kidding. No, no, I believe. you. Our New Year's was almost ruined one year by Monopoly

Deal. Monopoly Deal great car game. Yeah, by someone who refused to acknowledge the rules. Do you play double just say noes? Do you play triple just say noes? We haven't played since New Year's 2018. Oh, they've ruined it. We have not, we've

never played it again. Name them. Name and shame them. Who was it? No, we're still on the healing journey. It's Z.M.'s Brie and Clint podcast. The text is so. good. Oh my God, they're so good. I want to kick off with this text. It says, my husband hates my guts when we play Catan

because it relies on trade and favours between players. Before we start, I always tell other players not to trust him. That is so funny. We call Monopoly the family destroyer. Without a doubt,

every time we played as a kid with my family, my brother, who was a cheater and I called him out, one time I ended up in ED with damaged nerves in my arm from him twisting it behind my back so hard. Far out. That is monopoly in a nutshell. This person wants to be anonymous.

Hi Anonymous. Hi Anonymous. Hello. What's the board game that tore you guys apart? Articulate is banned in my friend group. Oh my God. It was not good. Articulate's so fun though.

Why is it banned? I know. I know. We have two friends who are super, super competitive. If they're on the same team, they end up getting so mad at each other. And if they're on different teams, they end up being, like, so competitive that it just gets so awkward and ruins the game for us. So you just can't do it? We just can't do it.

It's been banned. Very mature of you guys to sacrifice your own enjoyment for those children in your group. Yeah, this game is such a great game. Do those two friends know the game has been banned because of them? Yeah. I guess they also voluntarily have banned themselves from it because they don't like the side of bring out of them. Smart. That's smart.

That's so good. Danielle's here as well. Hi, Danielle. Hi, Danielle. Oh, hi. Hi. What's the board game that destroyed your life? We were playing a game on New Year's called Throw Throw Burrito.

Throw Throw Barrito? How does that work? Basically, there's like two really soft burrito things in the middle of the table. Yeah. And you take turns and you get different cards and basically you end up having to throw them at each other. Yeah. And it's like whoever. ever does it the fastest.

Right, okay. So there's actually a physical element of throwing things at each other. Yeah. Dangerous. I remember all the rules because we played it one time and never again. Yeah. But basically it was a New Year's and a lot of alcohol had been consumed. Yeah.

And it got so heated because one person kept getting hit. Yeah, right. And then she packed a sad and went to bed. and it was, she was the host. She was the host. I love, I love talking about adults that pack a sad. It's so funny to think about it. And when you have to explain the next day

that the reason you packed the sad on New Year's Eve was because of throw-throw burrito. Yeah. Did she cop it too many times to the face, did she? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, she copped it so many times but she still won't talk about it now. Can't talk about it.

Can't have Mexican night. It's all ruined. Brilliant. We want to know the ballgame that ruined July. Someone texted and said my mum broke up with her fiancé at the time after a game of risk. That's fall on. I wonder if they got back together. Yeah.

This one's brilliant. It says Cludeau has scarred me for life. Don't want to tip my own horn, but I was pretty good at the old Cludo. Had my algorithm that I used every time we played. Family board game night came around and I had my guests down packed yet again. My sister decided she'd be the person to look at the cards in the envelope and lied about what was in there. After playing for another 20 minutes,

she turns around and has her guess with somehow the right answer. You could only imagine when I found out the truth, the amount of tears that were had on behalf because she cheated. We never played Cludeau as a family again. I would lose it. I'd be fuming. If you knew your sister was cheating and the rest of the, the family and was like, yay, well done, Jessica.

You'd be like, she cheated! I'd be so angry. This is a great text. The topic is what board game destroyed your relationship. Someone said, chess, I thought I was smarter than my husband. Turns out, I'm not, and I'm a horrible loser. Oh, no. Hey, at least you can admit it.

At least you know that about yourself. Someone else said, you know is banned in our family because of the plus four stacking rule ambiguity. Can you double down? Is it plus eight? Is it then? You know? Uno.

You know? You know? You know. You know? I think it's what, either all. Oh. You know? Uno.

Uno. What did I say? Claudia, can you sell all this for us? You know? You said you know. I say Uno. It's Una, right? No, thanks, Claudia.

Oh my God, don't let this one tear us apart. I'm so glad we stopped and discussed. that for three minutes. Not a board game, but when I was 12, knuckle bones caused a huge fight between me and my 15-year-old cousin. We're both males. I accused him of cheating because he effing did,

and he blew up and threw the knuckle bones at me, and I kicked him in the shin. I kicked him into a shelf. We didn't talk for the rest of the year. Loll. So good. Someone said my six-year-old has spoiled snakes and ladders for us. Too many times he would get upset

I feel like this will help a lot of people because I came across this email hack. If you have Gmail, you can use this. And this hack, you are able to unsubscribe from all those pesky newsletters and different brands that send you random crap. Oh, I've got a lot of those. And spam, right? So it's really simple. All you have to do, open your Gmail.

And so on the left, you've got your inbox and your sent. On desktop, right? On desktop. Yes. And if you click on the more button, which is at the bottom of all those. Yes, I see it. There's something right down the bottom that says manage subscriptions. Yep, got it.

Click on that and it will show you. Oh, my God. Crazy, right? It will show you all of the things that you subscribe to, whether you knew about it or not. And you can simply click on the button unsubscribe. That's incredible. Isn't that amazing?

I have got so many things in here that I'm subscribed to that I have no interest in. Because most of the sites When you go there, they're like, hey, do you want 5% off? And you're like, oh, yeah, I guess so. Yes, please. And so you subscribe for the rest of your life. Can you read out a few?

Yeah. Okay, we'll start with the A's. Air New Zealand, Assembly Label, Auckland FC, Burgerfield, DJ City, Georgia. Oh, what's that? I don't know. Good for My Fitness, pal. They go on and on and on.

Yeah, same here. Animates, Bonds, DeCuba, dog-friendly code. I'm subscribed to Auckland FC three times. Gorman, Huffer, I Love Ugly, Milk Books. I can explain that one. Milk books. Milk books, platypus shoes, twice. Yeah, how could you subscribe?

Oh, it'd be maybe the New Zealand website and the Aussie website. This is actually a great hack. Yeah, anyway, it's an easy hack. if you want to know how to do it again you click into your Gmail click the more button and it'll bring up a tab that says manage subscriptions

and then you just click unsubscribe to all of them The only way this could be better is if there was an unsubscribe all button Yes I wish they had that they had to make it a little bit difficult but not bad

hey that was actually useful I had such low hopes did you? It's good isn't it and I also thought that maybe you'd been had by one of those those third party services where it's like we'll use AI to clean up your inbox but actually they're just scraping all of your data

so you give them access to your inbox and actually you you've just given away all the information that you have to this company and you usually pay them for it too you're so much nicer to me now that we're engaged ZDM's Bree and Clint podcast I came across a post yesterday that was quite disturbing

and unnerving and The post read, tell me the most unhinged thing a family member has ever said to you. Okay. You can't choose your family sometimes. No. We do say that in life. Yeah. You know, you can choose your friends.

You can't choose your family. You can choose not to talk to them, though. You can choose that. You can. And I would guess that after some of these circumstances, there would be people not talking to family members. Do you want to hear some of them? Yeah, go on. These are in the comments.

We'll kick it off with this one. It says, I didn't want to eat a few hours after my dad had died. My uncle said to me, stop acting like a spoiled brat and eat your food. What else? Wow. Look, I'm sure your uncle was just upset after losing his brother. I think it was on the other side. Oh, then no excuse.

No excuse. Someone else said, when I was little, my pup-pup told me I fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. Who said that? They're pup-pup. Wow. Different generation, eh? Yeah, it does say afterwards.

It does say afterwards, she says, I still loved him, though. So you know sometimes your grandparents will say unhinged things. Is this a bad thing to say? You kind of hope pup-pup had dementia there, right? You're like, what a horrible thing to say to your granddaughter What are you saying to me, pop-p-pup. Someone else said, My mother, whilst she was dying in hospice,

said to me, never stop trying to lose weight. Her passing words. And then it says, Her death actually brought me so much peace. Wow. Wow. Can you imagine? Never stop trying to lose weight.

Your one goal in life should be to be skinny. I would have loved you more if you weren't so fat. Wow. Thanks, Nan. Wild. Let's move on. These are the most unhinged things. In my will, you're getting the exor cycle.

And my slim, fast shake. These are the most unhinged things A family member has ever said to you Someone else said My uncle suggested That my infant daughter Should go on birth control What?

She was a month old Nah No no no no No uncle doesn't get to come over anymore No he's not coming over Someone else said My mum told me that my dad's heart attack Was my fault because I was being naughty

Oh that's crazy Emotional damage. Big time. And let's finish with this one. It says, I met my husband's uncle for the first time. So obviously she's married into the family. Yeah. And he stared at me for a long while.

And then the first thing he said to me was, So what are you? For context, I'm half Chinese. Okay. Far out. So what are you? Wow. Look, we laugh. We laugh. But some of these are serious, aren't they?

Yeah. Some of these. It's not funny. It's serious. Already had some texts in like this. Someone said, My dad has always called me the ugly duckling. What the hell? Like, that's not okay. We laugh, but... Not okay. That'll give you a complex.

Oh, yeah. That'll 100% give you complex. Dad needs a clip around the ear for that. But we do want to hear them. Yeah, we'd love to hear them. If you... Vent to us. If you're willing to laugh at them,

Then so are we. Oh, 800 dials at him, or text us on 9696 with the most unhinged thing a family member ever said to you. Ever said. Get it off your chest. We're here to listen. Yeah, we can be your free therapy this afternoon. Absolutely we can. We will side with you.

Always. Whether your relative is living or dead. Dead is Franklin. I feel like this conversation should come with some kind of warning. Holy smokes. We've opened the floor. Bloodgates. We're not going to get through all of these.

We're not. I wish we could. Some of them are thoroughly unreadable. Some of them we can't read out on air because it's so bad. But to all of you, every single message that we've received, you did not need to have that said to you. Yeah. It did not need to happen.

It's not okay and it's not your fault that some family members suck. The question we asked is, what is the most unhinged thing a family member said to you? Should I start with this one? It says, when I was heavily pregnant with my eldest son, I jokingly remarked that I looked like a beach whale. My husband's grandmother thoughtfully looked at me and said, oh, I wouldn't say a whale, maybe a small porpoise. This is also the same woman who years earlier

when he and I first started dating suggested that I tried to hide my rather large feet by wearing tainty shoes. Thanks for the suggestion, Nanibb. but it's quite hard to find dainty shoes for a size 10. RIP, Nanabev. Not sure if she's dead, but hopefully soon. Dead to you, though. In my 30s, my uncle asked me,

when was that party that you had? And I said, do you mean my 21st? And he said, yeah, you looked good back then. There's multiple reasons why that's wrong. Claudia's here. Hi, Claudia. Hi, Claudia. Hi.

What's the most unhinged thing a family member ever said to you, Claudia? We lost my uncle last year and I was lying beside him until the funeral home come to collect them. Yeah. My other uncle come into the bedroom and told me to stop

hogging him and let others spend time with him before he had to leave. Stop hogging him. Hey, you're hogging Uncle Darren. Let other people have a go. Stop hogging all the dead uncles. How many people were there, Claudia? There were all of my cousins

and then my aunties and uncles and my mum, so I would say there was a good 15 to 20 of us. Sounds like a tense few days, Claudia. Oh, it very much was. Yes. Sorry for your loss, thank you for the call. When I was a teenager, my dad told me

that I had two watermelons as a bum. Oh, no. 20 years later, and some therapy, I've just started to love my body. Wow. Like, dads, get it together. Dad. Here's another one similar to that.

My dad always has said my dad, sorry, My dad always said my legs were four by twos, i.e. fence posts. That's horrible. Not funny. My grandpa called me chubby chub as a nickname. Granddad. Granddad. Granddad, it's a different time.

We don't do that anymore. God, don't you wish you could go back? He's like, what? When I was a kid, there was a good thing. I meant the kid was going to survive. I wish you could go back and you just, you know, say something straight back to him. My mum told me, has told me, on multiple occasions. she wishes she never had me and my brother.

Oh, that's horrible. And if she could go back, she never would have. Oh, that's nasty. Hey, hey, thanks, mum. Thanks, mum. Thanks, mum. Way to bring up the mood. I'm going to take care of you in your later years.

Someone else said, my mum used to tell me that the kids on the UNICEF ads were her naughty kids, i.e., only if your sister had cleaned her room. Oh, that's unhaged. Wild. So if you don't behave, you will become a starving child in Africa. That's what your mom was implying. And that one of those kids on the ad is your sister. Yeah, well, that's your sister.

She got sent away. That is hectic. That is so hectic parenting. Imagine the moment when you figure out that that's not true and your mom's life. It's such a good point. Wait a second. Wait a second. That's not true.

someone said, my boomer mother told me it was harder to buy a house back in her day. Shut, mum. Come on, mum. My dad told me when I was younger that I would never make as much money as my sister. See, that would motivate me. That would motivate me too.

I wonder if he was using reverse psychology on you there. Which, again, I don't recommend as a parenting technique. Yes, still not okay. Someone else said, when I shared that I was pregnant with my first baby, my mother-in-law said, okay if you lose this one, there'll be others. Oh.

What the hell? Why are you saying that? Why is she saying that? I wonder if she had. I wonder if it's like some kind of coping. No, yeah. No, true, you wouldn't say that if you had, would you? No.

One night out of the blue, my dad just roasted my husband's dad and made a reference to his arm because it's missing. My mum tried desperately to change the subject by saying, actually, I find the mother worse. Wow. I could have and did die a little bit. I bet you did. What about your dad?

He's got no arm. Oh, God. My father once said to my now ex-sister-in-law that she was the daughter he never had. Wait. I am the only girl with four brothers. What an asshole. Oh. What an a-hole.

Oh. That's so rough. Oh, update on Nana Bev. Yeah. She is dead. And she had size 13 feet And she did that To make her feet look smaller

See, you know why Always comes from a place of insecurity Yeah This is there's a lesson in this They're projecting The mean thing somebody says to you Says more about them than it does about you Exactly

My dad called me Piggy Pig My auntie who I'd not seen in 20 years said, I don't even recognise you because you've gotten so fat. Oh, God. There's so many, and we apologised from your families to you. Like we said, you can't choose your family, but you can choose to not give them your new phone number. Yep, and you can choose to do that at any time you want.

Thanks for the messages. We will do your birthday bangers, if you like, for you, straight up to this. ZD.N's Brian Clint. We were just talking before about the unhinged things that a family member said to you and boy we got some great texts I just want to read this one last one

someone's texting and said I'm a girl and my father told my partner that his cat was the daughter he never had what the hell seriously WTOF I was in the room

the cat the cat is even before you the cat is the daughter you never had but you have a daughter You have a daughter and she's in the room with the cat. I'd love to meet that guy, I hope you have, like, the mental fortitude to know that your dad is an insane person. Like, when you hear that and you see that, you go, oh, cool, this is not a thing a mentally stable person would say in front of their daughter.

And you know what you should have said? You should have been like, this block of cheese is the dad I never had. He's just the gooderous guy. Thank you, everybody. Let's go to Alex for a birthday banger now. Hi, Alex. Hi, Alex. How we're doing?

and we also had this banger. Joel Corrie and MN-E-K, head and heart. That's a bop. Banger, Alex. You into it? Yeah, yeah, it's a banger. I like it. Such a catchy song.

Speaking of unhinged things, remember former producer Ben who had had open heart surgery and we used to say, oh, do you love this song, Ben? That was unhinged. Yeah, no wonder he left. It was unnecessary. Rixana's here to play birthday banger.

Hi, Rixana. Hi, Rikana. Hey. What have you been doing today? I've just been at work, so I'm on my way home. I've just called over to be safe. Good on you, Riksona. That's what we like.

What is your birthday? 9th of July in 1993. Right, that means you were 16 in 2009. And on that day in July, this was at the top. This is what all the people of the brainclin shows say to me when I've dropped my guts on the test floor. Speaking of unhinged things you guys have said to me. Rixana, sorry about that.

No, that's okay. What a ripping birthday binger, though. Yeah, I won't complain. It was a big ripping one. Okay. All right. Let one rip. All right.

What? I say that. Why did you say that? Rebecca's here. Hi, Rebecca. My ADHD won just then. And for everyone who has ADHD, sorry, Rebecca. I apologise to you as well and everyone listening. I need out my riddle and I think. Sorry, Rebecca.

Let's go out on a high with Rebecca's birthday bang. Okay, let's bring it back. Rebecca, what is your birthday? Uh, 7th of May, 1978. All right, that means you were 16 and 1994. And on that day, this was number one. Can't get enough, can't get enough, no Can't get enough, can't get enough, no

Super Groove You like that one, Beck? Yeah, it's good. It's a classic, yeah, I love it. First time I've heard it. Here it is, for his, for his, for his, a bit of a worse. That was all right, I thought. Kiwi classic, eh?

Wait there, Rebecca, we're going to choose between Joel Corrie, Cascada, In Supergroove. Are we going to play Cascada today? Do you want to play Supergroove? Yeah, a little bit. But you don't know it? I don't know it, but from that little bit I heard...

It's a banger. I'm willing to be open to it. It's a banger. You know? Yeah. Like, why should I deny the New Zealand public a bit of Supergrove? Why shouldn't you get to experience Supergrove? Yeah, exactly.

Why shouldn't I get to hear it for the first time? Are you going to vote for it? Yep. Rebecca. A bit fun. Well done. You just won. birthday banger.

Thanks. Somehow this song's from 1994. Still sounds fresh though and it's your birthday banger today on ZM, Brian Clint. Well, I was kind of a one dread. 100. I'm with you good humming.

ZM's Brean Clint podcast. How good. That's the first time Supergrove. Have ever won birthday banger? It's for Rebecca from 94. Fun fact, that song came out when that song came out when they wrote that, those boys were still at high school. That's wild. A song that

good is from a high school band. And where did they make it? At a studio somewhere. They would have got put, someone would have recognised their talent and put them in a studio and gone, hey, guess what? You guys are freaking awesome. The last thing to happen like that was George 685. Oh yeah. He was in high school. Yes, he was. And his bench got picked up in lockdown. down by Jason DeRullo.

Silverchair blew up in high school? Silverchair blew up in high school? And Lord. And Lord as well. Do you guys reckon Lord actually did seventh form? Did she do year 13? Or she was like, yeah, I'll do it by correspondence. Let's see what.

I'll do it from the Grammys. Year 13. As if, why would she want to? As if. No, Lord did not complete year 13. No. She attended Takapuna Grammar School. from 2010 to 2013, completing year 12

and shows not to return to attend year 13. Why would you? You're backstage with Anna Wintua and David Bowie at the Met Gala and you're like, hmm, wonderful do my English essay. Probably not, eh? Hey, next on the show, I have to say it, don't I? Yes. Brea and I have just released our engagement photo shoot.

And that's all you need to say. It's on our Instagram page now. There is a reason, okay? There's a good reason. Yes, because we're in love. And we're going to get married. The ZDM Podcast Network. I said it before and I'll say it again.

Steve Irwin's car is for sale. Yeah, this is cool. I'd love to own a car with a backstory, you know? Yeah, with some history to it. Yeah, and this one definitely does. I'm going to show it to you in just a second, Bree. But Steve Irwin's car that's currently for sale is an HJ-45 land cruiser troop carrier. That's exactly the car I pictured him to drive.

And maybe it's because I've seen him. drive it in the TV show? Quite possibly. Yeah. Quite possibly you remember from that. Claudia's going to bring it up on the screen for us now. It's older than the land cruiser you're thinking of. Oh.

Yeah. Oh, that's not kind of what I was picturing. It's bigger. For the car buffs among us, Steve Irwin's land cruiser has a 4.9 litre V8 engine. Holy moly. It's done 415,000 kilometres, which is basically brand new for one of these cars. It is brand new. It was built in 1982.

Okay. And the person who is selling it bought it directly from Australia Zoo in 2013. Wow. Doesn't say what they paid for it, but they have fixed it up a bit. I think they have maybe repainted it because it looks very shiny.

Doesn't it? And I don't know that Australia Zoo realized what they were selling in 2013. Like Steve Irwin's car is a whole thing, you know? Could have sold it to a museum. Yeah, you could have. Because he passed away in 2006. Yes.

So obviously it was after he'd passed away And not that long after Not all that long I wonder if it was directly his car Or if it was one of the cars from Australia Zoo It's a good question The car comes with a history booklet And a letter from Robert Irwin

Steve's son So there has and he's sort of vouching for the car Yeah So it's definitely a car that Steve used to drive Okay And it says crocodile hunter down the side of it Does it say how much they want? So it's on an auction site

called I've been on this site a little bit recently what is the site called collecting cars and the auction closes on Monday current bid $22,000

all right which is not outrageous for a piece of history history I mean it has done 400,000 case also it's completely

full of rust like when you go through the photos this car's 45 years old yeah wow and it's been used like it's been a working car but still you know i'd be great to own a piece of history like that if you could and money was like out of the question yeah what piece of history vehicle would you choose to own oh um like what would be it because there's so many like i'm putting

on the table like cars famous cars from movies famous cars that you know uh people may have died in, like Tupac? Two Puck's go, yeah, yeah, yeah. Easy, chitty-chitty-bang-bang. Is that the... I wonder if that exists. One of one, chitty-chitty-bbing. Is it really?

Well, tell me another... Who else has got a chitty-chitty-bang-bang. You know, it's got wings. Yeah. It's got a song about it. What about you, Claude? I want the Spice Girls bus. Great answer.

With the Union Jack on it. Great answer. That is such a good answer. I wouldn't know how to drive. it but it would look great in my driveway. Damn, what a piece of history. You could live in it. True, I could. It's double dicker. I've just looked up the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Car and it's come up with this article that said during the auction for the Chitty Chitty bang bang car, bidding reached as much as $805,000. Wow. Worth it. Yeah.

Worth it. There you go. I would have to go with the skyline from the first original Fast and the Furious movie. Yeah, sick. You know? Yeah. The original white one with the blue stripe up the side. Yeah, great answer. You know?

It's a piece of history. You're a mere 12-second car. Not a 12-minute car. A ZM's Breanclint podcast. And that is the end of the Breanclint show. Don't usually say this. Because why would I? But if you would like to see
