Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network Hey guys, welcome to the Brianne Clint Podcast. How's everybody feeling after that vegan cheese yesterday? I feel okay. No, pretend it. Oh, it made me so sick. Gassy. Yeah, far out.
Starting point is 00:00:17 I think I'm... What was in there, Ella? I think I'm vegan. Cashews. I think I'm vegan intolerant. Cat shoes. Cat shoes. Cat shoes. Cat shoes. Cashews.
Starting point is 00:00:25 Cashews. Bless you. Bless you. Damn it. Don't fuck with a cashew. It's already good on its own. I don't care if you don't like it. Do you know why?
Starting point is 00:00:33 Because it's more for me. No, I actually did. I actually did mind it. That's what I say about avocados. I give it a solid six out of ten. Who doesn't like avocados? Oh, totally not me. What?
Starting point is 00:00:43 I wouldn't not like them. Do you not like avocados? They're disgusting and they make me feel really sick. I'm going to make you my guacamole. No, I don't want it. That's probably the worst thing you could make someone who doesn't like avocados. It's all avocado. My guacamole is good. I think I'm oddly allergic, but also they taste
Starting point is 00:00:57 gross. What the heck, man? I kind of get that. I go through stages where I'm on avocado and then I'm not. No, don't jump on the bandwagon. People get so offended, though. I got food poisoning from avocado. Did you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Huh. How? You can get food poisoning from anything. Old-age avocado. Yeah, and there was obviously- She rubbed it on a dead chicken. There was obviously bacteria on it, and it was like the only thing I'd eaten gave me food poisoning. You got dirty avocado that's my issue
Starting point is 00:01:26 is i would never know what i got food poisoning from because i don't keep track of what i eat so no but you know when you eat something and it tastes off not quite right my brain always registers and goes oh this could give you food poisoning so then if i ever do get food poisoning i will recall it's like how I used to get gout. And then they're like, it'll be something in your diet. I'm like, I literally have no idea.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I can't remember. Isn't gout the foot thing? What's gout? Nah, it's an everything thing. No, it's a foot thing. But you can get it in your hands too, right? It's a joint thing. It's mostly a foot thing.
Starting point is 00:01:57 I have a wart on my finger. Is it from that gout thing that Claudia was talking about? A wart? A wart is not gout. What was that thing you were talking about? I was talking about Veruca's. Veruca's, yeah. What's a Veruca? A plant. Veronica gout. What was that? I was talking about verrucas. Verrucas, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:05 What's a verruca? A Veronica's sister. Verruca salt. What's a verruca? A verruca's like a fungal infection. Why do we always talk about gross stuff? Yeah, why do we always talk about gross stuff? Sorry, okay.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Clean it up. Has anyone ever had a plant or wart? What's that? That shit's nasty, man. Have you guys had your warts frozen off's nasty, man. I was really... Have you guys had your warts frozen off before? Yes, when I was a kid. I'm not doing that.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I've never had a wart. My wart can stay. Haven't you? No. Do you want to... No, don't touch me. You're such a wuss. Just get your wart frozen off.
Starting point is 00:02:36 I'm not a wuss. I like my wart. Here's a question. What are your guys' biggest insecurities? Do you have any warts or moles or anything that you like? Tiny penis. But at least you don't fling that around in public. I can't. I want to. I can't.
Starting point is 00:02:50 You can't fling it anywhere. It's easily hidden that one, so that's fine. It's hiding in plain sight. I'd like to cut my boobs off. Same. What? Wait, your boobs are your insecurity? Yeah, they're annoying. They're just there. Don't like it. Right, okay. Oh, you just don't want boobs at all Yeah
Starting point is 00:03:05 Okay, fair enough Should we do it for content? When you saw that Katy Perry music video Where she ran away to join the military And she taped them down Were you like Damn, I'm going to give that a go Yeah, I want to join the military
Starting point is 00:03:15 I saw this girl on TikTok the other day And she Well, actually, I apologise I'm not sure if her pronouns are she, her She's not listening I know, but that's not the point. I think their pronouns are they, them. They're never going to hear this.
Starting point is 00:03:30 But they removed their breasts because they just didn't want them. Oh, yeah. But they're not trans. No, but they're non-binary. But they're non-binary. They just didn't want boobs. Well, that makes sense. Question.
Starting point is 00:03:44 If someone, say if I cut my boobs off now, then I have kids, will all my boobs grow back for the milk? No. So I won't get milk? No, you'll get milk. You're talking about a breast reduction or you're talking about a mastectomy? If you have a... If you have a removal, they remove
Starting point is 00:03:59 everything. Yeah, you'll lose your memory gland. Oh no, I just want littler boobs. Well, that's a breast reduction. That's a reduction. So yes, you'll still get milk. It's a much easier surgery. Yeah, you'll lose your memory gland. Oh no, I just want littler boobs. Well, that's a breast reduction. That's a reduction. So yes, you'll still get milk. It's a much easier surgery. Yeah. Oh, interesting. I have nipples, Greg. Okay. Did you guys know? Me?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Greg? Okay. Are you done? Did you guys know? It was the coldest day of the year today. I have nipples, Greg. Was it? Yeah. Yeah was the coldest day of the year today? I have nipples, Greg. Was it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Yeah, the coldest day of the year so far, though. That's what they don't say. I was talking to my partner about that. That was such a clickbait headline. It was all, tomorrow is the coldest day of the year so far. I was talking about my partner and she's like, well, obviously that's implied. They don't need to say it. No, it's not implied.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Our dum-dums need it bloody written out for us. That doesn't make sense. If the coldest day of the year is in March, what the hell? Also, we have people who listen to this podcast in all kinds of locations. Going, it is the middle of summer right now. No, what I was going to get at is the coldest day. It's like, we're like, whoa, coldest day. I think it was like six degrees this morning.
Starting point is 00:05:04 It was 15 degrees when I got up. 15, right. Okay, no, it was colder than that in the morning. My guinea pigs were shivering. It's so not cold, eh? Yeah. 15 degrees? Poor little thing. I remember it was so cold where I grew up that we would catch the bus to school, to high school,
Starting point is 00:05:19 and there would be icicles hanging off the bus. Oh, what? Stop that. Yeah, and then one time my mum hung the washing out and obviously your washing is a bit damp when you hang it out and she went to get it. She forgot about it overnight. The next day she went out there, it was completely frozen stiff
Starting point is 00:05:35 to the clothesline. My favourite special job as a kid was when the windscreen was frozen and you'd run out with the water and throw it on the car. That was my favourite. One time it was so cold where I grew up that we had a Land Cruiser and it took diesel as the fuel and the diesel froze. What the hell? Can that happen? Australia gets cold?
Starting point is 00:05:56 It turns into jelly and the car doesn't start. I just remember my mum and we were late somewhere and she just kept like pouring water over the general over the general area where the gas tank was i was like this is fucked does it snow it has snowed a couple of times yeah i used to get have you guys ever got chill blames before no i think that's what they're called. Chill blames? Chill blames. I know what you're talking about. It's like the start of frostbite. Yeah. And it's where essentially your skin blisters from it being so cold.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I've had them on like all around my ears before. Ouch. How? From training for soccer at night time from where I grew up. It was so cold. That's illegal. Chill blames? Yeah, chill Blaines.
Starting point is 00:06:45 The small itchy swellings on the skin that occur as a reaction to cold temperatures. Ouch. Okay. I was looking for a real shit David Blaine joke just then, but... Did you find one?

Yes, Sandy, you can buy all the KFC chicken you want to replace that one. This is a fascinating story that I've stumbled across today. There are, and this is not a joke,
Starting point is 00:16:23 there are thousands of women across New Zealand who are joining private Facebook groups to see if their boyfriend or girlfriend has another... I'm shocked. What? Girlfriend or boyfriend. I had no idea about it. It's mostly boyfriends, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Yeah. They're called, these pages that exist on Facebook, they're called Do We Have the Same Boyfriend? Ooh. There's a group for the Hutt Valley. There's a Do We Have the Same Boyfriend group for the Wairarapa. There's a Do We Have the Same Boyfriend Auckland Facebook group. There's a Manawatu everywhere.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Everywhere has their own local do we have the same boyfriend private closed Facebook group. My toxic trait is I like to go into these groups and just be a part of the drama. Yeah. Just see what's going on. Yeah. I think that's part of the fun.
Starting point is 00:17:20 But if you have any suspicions These are the pages you should go to. This is how it works. You request to join the page. Okay. And then if they approve you, once you're inside, you can request to post a photo of your boyfriend or a link to their social media page.
Starting point is 00:17:37 That gets approved, and then the loyalty test begins. It goes out to every other woman in the Facebook group, and if any of them recognise him either as their boyfriend or as a boyfriend of their friend, then they comment and they go, sorry, sis, snapped. He's already in a relationship. He's in a relationship. Or it could be used to get some background info on.
Starting point is 00:18:05 Oh, like have you ever dated this man? Yeah, what was he like? You know, if you're about to start dating someone, you want a bit more dirt on them. Yeah. But the idea is if you see your boyfriend in there, then he has another girlfriend that you don't know about. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:19 I had no idea this was going on. I had no idea. Well, one, you're married. Yeah. And two, you're not a woman. No, those are two very good points. Yeah. So it's not really your demo, is it? I want in so bad. Should I set up a fake profile so I
Starting point is 00:18:36 can get in there? Could I use your picture? Do you? No, absolutely not. You cannot. What about one of the pictures that doesn't really look like you anymore? Do you really want to mess with the women that are creating these pages? No, God no. I don't of the pictures that doesn't really look like you anymore? Do you really want to mess with the women that are creating these pages? No, God no. I don't want to mess with them at all. I want to observe.
Starting point is 00:18:52 I want to watch. I want to, like that Michael Jackson meme, I want to sit there in the crowd with my popcorn and just go... That's what's all going on, you know? It would be very interesting. I wonder what they've uncovered before. Oh, so the article I'm reading
Starting point is 00:19:08 says when it goes down, it goes down. Yeah. And everybody goes in and then they all start, like as soon as someone goes, yeah, he's got a girlfriend, people start pulling in. You know how women get. They turn into bloody Carmen Sandiego and they can find information
Starting point is 00:19:23 everywhere. It's like you become a full FBI agent and you have all these skills that you tap into and then you evolve into Liam Neeson and we will find you and we will uncover the truth. We'll chop your penis off. I've got a very specific question to ask. It's like this but it doesn't have to have happened in the Facebook group. I want to know this afternoon on 0800DIALZM,
Starting point is 00:19:51 where and when did you meet your partner's other partner? And I don't mean their ex. Their current other partner. Yeah, I mean like that Cameron Diaz movie where they all realise they're dating the same guy. When did you realise that this person that you're talking to is also in a relationship with
Starting point is 00:20:12 the person that you have been in a relationship with? Will you take situations where they've met on social media? Yep. Like they've met through Facebook where one of them's inboxed someone. Yeah, and like, hey babe, I hate to tell you this, I just saw him on your profile. I'm also dating that person.
Starting point is 00:20:27 I've got two of his kids, and he's on the couch watching Married at First Sight right now. Right now. 0800 dials at him if you would like to share one of these stories with us this afternoon. You can keep your name out of it. We can keep all names out of this. You can text your experience to 9696,
Starting point is 00:20:44 but we want to know where and when did you meet your partner's other partner? That is, I can think of a few situations that wouldn't be a good time. I don't think there is a good time. Yeah, you've got a point. Bree's like, love to meet them at a barbecue. Maybe family Christmas. Bree and Clint. Let's go to Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi. Tell us, mate, when did you run into or meet your partner's other partner? Well, I met my partner's other partner's boyfriend. What? It was on Snapchat So quite a few years ago When you used to be able to see Your Snapchat friends
Starting point is 00:21:32 Other friends Yeah, their best friends Yep Yep, yep So the day before my birthday I had a random message from someone Saying, are you so-and-so's girlfriend? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Oh, no. And I said sort of because I'd got sick of his cheating ways and broke up with him. Good on you. And then we were kind of getting back together. No! I know, I know. Lessons learned.
Starting point is 00:22:01 And then they replied back to me and said, oh, well, they're cheating on you with my girlfriend. Oh, my God. Wait. So the boyfriend of the other partner messaged you, and I wonder how he found out. Was he ropeable about it too? I guess so.
Starting point is 00:22:19 He didn't really want to chat. I was going to say, is there any chance that you and him ended up together? No, no, no. Like a shared trauma situation? Plotline to a movie. really want to chat. I was going to say, is there any chance that you and him ended up together? Yeah. No. Like a shared trauma situation? Sounds like a plot line to a movie. Okay, that is a hell of a way to find out. Thank you, Anonymous. That's horrible. Let's go to another Anonymous caller. Hi, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Hi, Anonymous. Hi, how you going? We're good. Where did you meet your partner's other partner? At my partner's funeral. What? Wait, wait, what? Yeah, so he passed away in a road traffic accident, unfortunately. And I had his phone after and found out that he'd been doing the dirty. And yeah, I saw her at the funeral and she had no idea that I knew. Oh my God, I'm so sorry, anonymous.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Okay. So she had, and did she have any idea that you existed? Oh, yeah, yeah. She knew about me. Like, quite a few people obviously knew about me. But no, she was. Right. So he wasn't playing you both.
Starting point is 00:23:16 She was aware that it was an affair. Yeah. Yeah. She was very much aware. And she thought you were oblivious to the relationship. But she still had the audacity to show up to his funeral? She sure did. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Did you say anything? Because this is, oh, my God, I can't even imagine what you've been through. Because there's no closure. You can't even talk to him about it. I feel sick. He's dead. Did you talk to her?
Starting point is 00:23:38 She did come up to me and say, oh, my goodness, I'm so sorry. He was such a lovely guy. And I just looked her up and down and walked away. So I think after that, she was... Oh, guy and I just looked her up and down and walked away. So I think after that she was... Oh my God. What was that... Oh, Anonymous, what was that like for you
Starting point is 00:23:51 in the grieving process where you're obviously, you know, grieving someone but then you've also got... You're mad at them. ...new information that makes you really angry at them? It was one hell of a grieving process. It's a total rollercoaster. Shit. Do you think it helped you recover faster
Starting point is 00:24:10 because you were able to be mad at the person or did it just make everything really mucky? Initially, it helped me to get through that, but after I stopped being angry at him and I just missed him. This is why... Because you can never talk to him about it. You can never get the answers. You can't get closure.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Yeah. This is why I think they should invent something for all phones. Yeah. That if you do pass away, it self-destructs in five minutes. Whatever you do, Anonymous, don't check his browser history, you know? Yeah. Did that as well. Wish I didn't.
Starting point is 00:24:44 No, Anonymous. Oh, bless you. He might be a cheater, but he doesn't deserve to have his browser history exposed. Thank you, Anonymous. One more from Ginny. Hi, Ginny. What a journey this has been.
Starting point is 00:24:55 How's it going? I don't know where we go from there. Where do we go from there, Ginny? What's happened to you? Oh, gosh. Mine's not that bad, but I found out just recently. Mine's a bit bad, but I found out just recently. Mine's a bit complicated, but I had a partner that I was with for three years.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Okay. And a year and a half of that was long distance. Okay. Right. And then out of nowhere, he, like, literally out of nowhere, he ghosted me. Right. And then I found out literally only a couple weeks ago that he was actually still married. I thought they were separated.
Starting point is 00:25:25 He also had another girlfriend as well as me. Like we moved together overseas. Who has the time? I know. But on top of that, when he ghosted me, I since learned that he had another girl who he had got seven months, like she was seven months pregnant. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Yeah. And it's the wife that told me all of this. His was seven months pregnant. Wow. Yeah. And it's the wife that told me all of this. His wife told you all of it? Yeah, yeah. Did she take him back? No. Oh, Christ. So she found out everything as well.
Starting point is 00:25:55 How did she find out, Jenny? Who did she find out from? So she found out, like the first affair, she found that out herself. This was before I was around. And then I turned up on the scene. She actually tried to hit me up about it.
Starting point is 00:26:08 And he was like, oh, no, she's crazy. Yeah, classic. Don't listen to her. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, my God, don't, Eva. And then I actually met his family. Like, he was like literally living God knows how many lives and how he kept up with it.
Starting point is 00:26:22 It was the weirdest thing. He's like, I'm Leonardo DiCaprio in Catch Me If You Can. Yeah. Can you just picture his LinkedIn, his top skill, multitasking. Because damn. 100%. I know. Multi-womaning.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Yeah. All right. Well, you're right. Sorry, Ginny. Hopefully. I don't even know what to say. I'm so glad you're out of that situation now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Yeah, no, finding that out has given me the closure I needed from the ghosting thing. Now I'm like, okay, now I don't like him. Yeah, good. Because three years and someone ghosts you? Like, what the hell? I feel like we should broadcast his name. Yeah, what's his name?
Starting point is 00:27:02 Brian Clint. I think I'm dreading what's about to happen but no, I've got to... Push on. Box on. Stick to my guns. Head down, bum up. We're here. Look, on Monday, Clint, at this exact time, I brought your attention to the real
Starting point is 00:27:18 estate agent that had moved into a different area of marketing. She'd reinvented the game. She had. Her name's Claire Cossie, and she decided that she would do singing advertisements for her listings. Take a listen. This old house
Starting point is 00:27:36 There's so much here to see Living room All covered with these beams Air-sized heat pump fitted And solar panels too I mean, look, you can get lost in that. With its own small business I heard business.
Starting point is 00:28:01 There is so much here You can bring her down. Wait, wait, wait. The never-ending property I heard business You can bring her down Wait, wait, wait It's good It's so good It's very good And I heard business is booming for Claire
Starting point is 00:28:17 Is it? It's worked She's selling houses all over the place Yeah And I thought there's a real opportunity here There's a real market here in New Zealand. A gap. A gap in the property market.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Okay. To do something like this. Mm-hmm. So what I've done. Jeez. We need to have the people from One Roof on standby for this. Is this. What I've done is I've found a property.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Okay. This is a real listing here in New Zealand. What I've done is I've found a property. This is a real listing here in New Zealand. Do they know what you've done with their listing? No. Okay. So this is free marketing? This is free marketing for the real estate agent's name is Michael Rea. He's from Ray White.
Starting point is 00:29:02 So Michael, if you're listening. You're welcome. You're welcome. You're welcome. But maybe here at first. Yeah. So, this property is a three-bedroom, one-bath house in Blenheim Central. Okay. In Blenheim, obviously.
Starting point is 00:29:18 And it's got some amazing features. I've taken all of these exact details and I've rammed it into a Meghan Trainor song. Okay, perfect. So are you ready? Yeah. Here is my marketing campaign for 4 Barrett Street, Blenheim Central. You could have the heat pump on. It's included.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Enough to heat three beds in one bath. Cozy. The ceiling's at 4 Barrett Street. Blenheim, have a look. Blenheim, have a look Let them have a look Stunning wooden floors Easy for sweeping chores It's had a renovation New handles on the doors
Starting point is 00:29:54 Ooh, you gotta, gotta, gotta Come through, through If you've got two cars There's a double garage Call up your mortgage broker, get that deposit charge. Ooh, you gotta, gotta, gotta come through, through. I mean, put an offer on it today. Sold, sold, sold.
Starting point is 00:30:19 I reckon. Yeah, it's the property for me. Judging from that solid marketing campaign, I reckon that's going to be sold tomorrow. I think we should call Michael Rea from Ray White and we should ask, have you had lots of inquiries to Paul Barrett Street? Do you know what I really hope?
Starting point is 00:30:38 Yeah. I hope a bunch of people go to the open home this weekend and where in the box it says, how did you hear about the property? People write, oh, that girl on the radio from Treasure Island sang the song about it. This is the house, isn't it? 4 Barrett Street in Blenheim.
Starting point is 00:30:53 This is good stuff, mate. I mean, it is a beautiful home. It's had renovations done. It's smaller, but it's cosy. This is how we turn the property crisis around, I think. I think we're on to something. I think we should get our real estate licence. Yeah, done.
Starting point is 00:31:10 We'll be a duo. Yeah, done. Dynamic duo. Right now, we're talking about this groom who is up in arms because he's got into a fight with his brother because the brother was a groomsman at his wedding and he said when he had to leave because his wife went into labour with their baby, he had to leave the wedding, made a big deal out of it that he stole his thunder on his wedding day.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Him and his selfish baby. Selfish. So we're asking you this afternoon Who stole the thunder at the wedding? Katrina's here Hi Katrina Hi Katrina Hi how's it going?
Starting point is 00:31:51 Good thanks Tell us who was it Katrina? So similar My brother announced that Him and his partner were having a baby The morning of my wedding Nah Not cool man
Starting point is 00:32:01 Hey Katrina How annoyed were you? Yeah, pretty annoyed. It was a lot of what my mum was going around talking about on the day. Yeah, yeah. She wasn't talking about how you had got married. She was talking about how she was about to become a grandma. I would be.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Ropable, Katrina. Did you already know that they were having a baby or was it news to you as well? They told us the morning of and then, yeah. And what was your reasoning for that day? Was it because all the family were together or because they wanted to explain why she wasn't going to be drinking at the wedding? Probably, yeah, maybe the drinking part of it. What a load of BS.
Starting point is 00:32:37 No one's looking at you that much at your wedding that they're going to be like, oh, why aren't you drinking? Just pretend. Put some water in your cup and say it's vodka. Is he married yet, your brother? Yeah, so they got married. You should announce it. I'm trying to think what you could spoil of theirs. On their kid's fifth birthday party,
Starting point is 00:32:58 get like a really awful piercing or tattoo or something. Or say you're getting a boo job. And then get people to pick out the size of your boobs at the five-year-old kid's party. Happy birthday, but check out these new ta-tas. Thanks, Katrina. All good, thank you. See you, mate.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Someone texted her and they said, not my wedding, but my parents' wedding. My dad's sister wore white to the wedding because they wanted my dad to be with someone else. His sister? His sister did that? Yeah. You don't wear white to a wedding.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I wonder if they've all worked it out now. Is there any women who aren't allowed to wear white to a wedding? It's everyone. Is it? Yeah, because look at this text. Someone else said, my dad tried to out-white me as he decided to wear a white suit
Starting point is 00:33:46 and white shoes to my wedding. Not an old-fashioned whiteout. Can you imagine? I'd be so annoyed. That's got to be from the bride as well because the groom wouldn't have been wearing white. It could have been. So it's your dad
Starting point is 00:34:00 trying to out-white the bride. Which is even worse. It's even worse. It's even worse. It's way worse. If the wedding is about, like if you were to rank who the wedding is about in the family, Dad is way down the list. Dad is so far down the list. Way down the list.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Someone else texted her and said, My father-in-law gave a speech at our wedding, which was all about a wonderful wedding he went to in Brazil. My brother and sister-in-law's wedding. Finished his speech and never mentioned us. My husband fumes to this day thinking about it. I'm brain clenched. Wait, I got one more.
Starting point is 00:34:40 You want one more? My cousin had the big Indian wedding and on day three of the celebrations, the final of the 2022 Football World Cup was on. And honestly, I felt bad since there was music and a DJ, but most of us were crowded around a cell phone watching the game and every few minutes there would be either screams of joy or groans of disappointment. Can you imagine?
Starting point is 00:35:07 Just one phone and everyone's just crowded around. The DJ's like, guys, I'll play Mr Brightside. Tomorrow morning, Fletch, Fawn and Hayley will send the last person on ZM's next flight for this season. We're calling that person at 5 o'clock today to tell them, hey, pack your bags because tomorrow morning you find out where you go. Exactly. So if you haven't registered, I'd do it right now.
Starting point is 00:35:32 I would do it right now. Because time is running out. So head to ZM online. That's where you can register to be a part of ZM's next flight. We don't know where it is, but there is an unorthodox new study from the Helsinki University that said tropical holidays are the way to go. It says if you're looking for a holiday, go tropical. This is a real study that had real money put into it. They said a tropical holiday can improve mental well-being.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Yeah, no duh. No shit, Sherlock. I could have spent no money and told you that. Well, Helsinki University did spend the money and here are the results. The findings showed a strong... These are all going to be such basic answers, aren't they? Such common sense answers.
Starting point is 00:36:22 The Helsinki University study found strong links between getting sunshine in winter and mental health. No way. Wild. The study also showed that financial, mental and physical problems were more bearable when overseas in a tropical climate. No. You're kidding. It did single out one thing, which I found quite interesting. It said getting diarrhea while on holiday is more bearable than getting diarrhea at home.
Starting point is 00:37:02 The reason they pulled that out, they said that when you are on holiday, all things, like I said, mental, financial and physical things like runny poos, more bearable while you're on holiday. Have you ever had barley belly spitty bum though? This is exactly the one they pulled out. I have to disagree.
Starting point is 00:37:25 They said, yeah, you might get barley belly while in Bali, but diarrhea is better while on holiday. No, it's not because barley belly is like diarrhea on steroids. Right. Like I can handle your normal everyday diarrhea. Yeah. But barley belly, if you get it bad, it is so, so bad. Well, the study says that you're more chilled out over there,
Starting point is 00:37:53 so you're like, oh, that's all good. Did I ever tell you about the time? It's all good. This is fine. Did I ever tell you about the time a partner of mine and I went on a trip to Bali and... Was it when you pooed your shorts? No, that wasn't me.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Yes, it was. When you went to, where did you go? Sri Lanka or... That was the Philippines. Philippines, yeah. The Philipoos. That was a different one. That was when you fill a pants.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Yeah, I filled my pants, all right. No, this was a different trip. Went with my partner. Anyway, I got struck pants, all right? No, this was a different trip. Went with my partner. Anyway, I got struck down with Barley Belly. We're staying in a single hotel room. And then they got struck down with Barley Belly. There's only one toilet. And our relationship, guess what?
Starting point is 00:38:37 Was fairly new. There's nothing that can test a new relationship more than being in Bali and you get struck down with Bali belly, let me tell you. Remember that hotel we stayed at in Christchurch, which had a glass window into the bathroom? Why do they think? Imagine if you guys were staying in that one when you had your incident and they're lying in bed going,
Starting point is 00:39:00 and they can see directly through the window into the bathroom, into the toilet where you're just going. Mate, I would have rather that the situation was one of us was on the toilet, one of us was in the shower. So you do the math. Much closer. If you want to win ZM's next flight. According to the news, as New Zealanders, we're bad at maths.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Math, maths. One or the other. Math. We're bad at it, the numbers stuff. And getting worse. I don't mean to unfairly single out 10-year-olds here, but only 16% of year fives can solve a simple equation. Written for their age group, even when it's a multi-choice answer, 16%.
Starting point is 00:39:48 That's not much, is it? Wait, correct me if I'm wrong. Just over a quarter. No. Oh. Not even close. No. A third?
Starting point is 00:40:00 The confidence with which you said that was quite astounding. That was the joke. 16%. Oh, you were joking. Oh, yeah, now she's joking. Now she's joking. I thought you'd know me well enough.
Starting point is 00:40:13 I'm bad at... I wanted you to not be joking. I wanted you to be that wrong. I'm bad at math, like real bad, but I'm not that bad. You're shocking at fractions. I'm so bad at fractions. You're shocking at fractions. I still don't know what a third is.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Get this. How much is a third? A third is... More than half. No, less than half. You're shocking at fractions. I'm so bad at fractions. You're shocking at fractions. I still don't know what a third is. Get this. How much is a third? A third is... More than half. No, less than half. Less than half. Okay. How much is a third?
Starting point is 00:40:32 It's roughly a third. They're lucky. It's roughly a third. They are lucky I am not in fifth grade here because I would be bringing that average way more down. Get this. Get this. 16% of year fives can solve a simple equation when it's multi-choice.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Okay. Even if they all guessed the answer, the odds mean that 25% of them should get it right. You have to try really hard to get 16%. Maybe they're all just messing with us and they're like, guys, let's all do real bad. Anyway, I feel like this may be a fait accompli now, but I've decided Claude should give us a maths test.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Can I just say, I did not consent to this. You did so. I like to hide in the shadows with how bad I am at maths. Claudia has prepared three simple maths equations for us. Questions, problems, and we're just going to see how we go. And you can do these too. We would love to know on the text machine how many of these you managed to get correct.
Starting point is 00:41:29 Okay. So when you're ready, Ms Sykes, please take the lesson away. I found these on a website called Math Word Problems to Challenge Students Grade 1 to 8. So apparently 6 to 12-year-olds. Perfect. Right in our wheelhouse. So the first one is an addition question.
Starting point is 00:41:45 Okay. Ashley bought a bag of lollies. The bag has 102 blue lollies, 100 red lollies and 94 green lollies. How many are there in total? 296. Nailed it. Yeah, boy. Yeah, boy.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Okay, that was... Should that have taken us as long as it took us? Probably not. No. Maybe not, but it didn't take... But we are on the radio and you don't want to embarrass yourself. Yes. Because that would be horrible.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Imagine. And something we have never done on this show. No, no. Yeah, we are a very... Well, you crushed the addition question, so now I'm going to throw you a multiplication question. Okay. A movie theatre has 25 rows of seats.
Starting point is 00:42:30 With 20 seats in each row, how many seats are there in total? Oh, shit. Oh, no. Wait, 25 rows? 25 rows, 20 seats in each. 20 to 4. 4, 24 divided by 20. 20 divided by 4. 20 to 4. 4, 20. 4 divided by 20.
Starting point is 00:42:47 20 divided by 4. What are you doing? It's not a dividing question. It's a multiply. 500 seats. Yeah. I didn't have enough time. He answered without putting up his hand. I figured out how many times 25 goes into 100, which is 4,
Starting point is 00:43:04 and then I divided the 20 by four. Very good. To see how many hundreds there were. 500. Well done, Bree. Thank you, guys. Good job. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:43:12 You guys are crushing this. Stupid year fives. Okay, your last question. You did well with addition, you did well with multiplication, and now we're doing division. Okay. My least favourite Ed Sheeran album. Oh, how dare you?
Starting point is 00:43:28 It's my favourite one. I actually don't know which one it is. I'm just looking for an easy joke. The blue one. If you have 100 tickets for the fair, and each ride costs five tickets, how many rides can you go on? Each ride costs five. 20.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Yeah. Oh, sorry. I'll just wait. Put your hand up. Yes costs five. 20. Yeah. Oh, sorry. I'll just wait. Put your hand up. Yes, Clint. 20. Yes. I feel like Clint would be that goody two-shoes in the class.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Yeah, teacher's pet. He's like, oh, miss. Miss. Miss. I know it. That kid who puts the arm up and then holds the arm up with the other. Please, miss. Mum's getting tired.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Please, miss. Please. And then the teacher always calls on the brie of the other. Please, miss. Mum's getting tired. Please, miss. Please. And then the teacher always calls on the Brie of the class who's trying to avoid eye contact. Oh. Yeah, no, trust me. I always got moved to the front because I was distracting the other kids. She's dumb, miss. She's dumb.
Starting point is 00:44:16 It wasn't dumb. I just couldn't pay attention. Brie and Clint. Something else I like. Google down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually...
Starting point is 00:44:32 Will a Harry Styles question come up in Google Down today? That is the question. Do you think you'd have to Google it if it did come up, Ella, or would you be able to shoot it straight from the top of your dome? I mean, I'm not good at birthdays so if it's there I would need to search it. Anything else, give it to me. Okay, interesting. This is Google Down where
Starting point is 00:44:51 the team go head to head to see who is the fastest Googler and you can win 50k of sea chicken dollars if you back the winner. We have the callers standing by who have each backed Clint, Claudia or Ella. Here's how it works.
Starting point is 00:45:06 I've put these exact questions into Google and I'm looking for the first and most common answer that comes up for this exact question. First to buzz in with the right answer gets a point. First to three wins the game. Are we all ready? I'm so ready. Claudia will have the handicap of only being able to hold her phone with one hand. I'll keep the other one up so you can see it. Okay, perfect.
Starting point is 00:45:27 Love this. Come on, Clint. Claudia, do you have a question? This is our week, Ella. It is. Yes, Claudia, you've got a question. I'm just letting you know my hand is here. I hope you put deodorant on today.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Of course. Smelly out here. Who farted? Oh, Claudia. It's not funny. You're at work. You're at a place of work. Yeah, don't fart, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Jeez. Question number one. This happened this week. What is Daniel Radcliffe's fiancé's name? I can't spell it. What is Daniel Radcliffe's fiancé's name? What is Daniel Radcliffe's fiancé's name? Alma Meta. Erin Dark. That is right, Claudia. I don't know what name. What is Daniel? Alma Mater.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Erin Dark. That is right, Claudia. I don't know what clip was Googling. Sorry, headphone warning. Oh, that's her alma mater, her university that she went to, the University of Michigan. Alma Mater. Hey, if that was the question, you would have won, eh?
Starting point is 00:46:24 You were right in there with that. No, I wouldn't have won because I didn't even give you the name of her university. Oh, what was it? No, her alma mater is another word for what university did you go to and that's what I thought her name was. If the question was what's another word for what university you went to, he would have got it. He would have crushed it. He would have got it.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Okay, one to Claude. Question number two. In feet, how tall is Daniel Radcliffe? Could have a guess on this one if you want. Five foot, five five. That's right, Ella. I'll take it. Is he only five five?
Starting point is 00:46:57 He's five five. Little boy. It's because they didn't feed him enough, eh? Yeah. When he was living under the stairs. They wanted to keep him small. Clint, he was acting. What?. When he was living under the stairs. They wanted to keep him small. Clint, he was acting. What?
Starting point is 00:47:06 Well, he was acting short. No. He's acting as Harry Potter. The boy who lives. He's really five foot five. Okay, question number three. One to Ella, one to Claude. How long does a grizzly bear live for?
Starting point is 00:47:23 How long? 20 to 25 years. I'm going to give it to Clint. Just. Just, Ella. You were right there. I just heard him. I was shocked that that wasn't a Daniel Radcliffe question.
Starting point is 00:47:38 When you said one hand, I was like, nah, that's easy. But I'm doing poorly. Is it harder? Yeah. That's why it's a handicap. My arm's getting tired too. Can I put it down? Boo hoo.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Carry on. You can put it down. I trust you. Okay. We are one apiece. Here we go. We've got a game on our hands. Question number four.
Starting point is 00:47:55 What is the most played instrument? What is the most... Piano. Piano. Clint is on fire. That's right. Guitar, violin, drums. That's right. Guitar, violin, drums.
Starting point is 00:48:07 That is right. Piano is the most common answer that comes up for that question. Piano. That was me. Okay, here we go. Question number five. What was the date that Apple launched Siri? I need the date.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Fourth of October, 2011. No. Clint has the date. Fourth of October 2011. No! Clint has won. He's taken it out. It's all done. It's over. He's never going to let us live this down. I don't like the dancing. On a completely level playing field as well. Claudia was right in that game. No handicap whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Caitlin, you have picked up the 50 KFC chicken dollars for backing in Clint for the win. Woo-hoo! I knew you could do it, Clint. Thank you. Hey, thank you for believing in me. That made all the difference.
Starting point is 00:48:54 That made all the difference. You were the only person that text through Clint's name, so. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. Oh, yeah, this is where we get the bangers on for you for your drive home or maybe your drive to work, who knows? Or maybe you're coming home from ballet practice like one of our birthday bangers yesterday. Or maybe you're just driving around in circles looking for meaning.
Starting point is 00:49:19 And this could bring you meaning. This is where you call us up, give us your birthday, we figure out what was the number one song on your 16th. Marie's going to kick us off. Kia ora Marie, happy Wednesday. Hi. How's your hump day been Marie? Oh not too bad actually I didn't work today so it was pretty good. Lucky you. Nice relaxing hump. Well let's make it even better. We do love sometimes a slow hump is what you need. Nice home hump. You know it is good to have those ones in there. Hey, Marie, what's your birthday? 24th of
Starting point is 00:49:48 February, 1975. Alright, that means you were 16 in 1991. And Marie, on your 16th birthday, this would have been number one. You're a better banger. Oh my god, I love this song. I'm obsessed with this song. It's got so much.
Starting point is 00:50:09 The bit where he goes, Baby, I've been thinking of you. So good. Yeah, I think that's going to be hard to beat. Yeah, it's going to be hard to beat. It's a good one, Marie. Wait there, Marie. We're going to do a birthday banger for Sarah.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, how are you? What have you been up to with your hump day, Sarah? Just working. Are you on your way home? Yep. Great. Tough day at work?
Starting point is 00:50:34 Yep, recently busy today. Who pissed you off the most today, Sarah? The boys, like usual. Fair enough. Tough day at work on a Wednesday. That's a hard hump. That is a hard hump. Yeah. Let's get you through it, though.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Which isn't great sometimes. Hey, Sarah, what's your birthday? 26th of June, 1984. All right, that means you were 16, Sarah, in the year 2000. And on the 26th of June in 2000, this was number one. Now who the hell are you? Oh, stop it. Get out of here.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Banger. What you done? Get out of here. Oh, stop it. Banger. You might remember Madison Avenue from their other major hit, Don't Call Me Baby. Yeah. This is such a good song. Banger. Do you like it, Sarah? I do.
Starting point is 00:51:18 Yeah. Okay. It's very year 2000 as well, isn't it? Super 2000. Okay. Wait there. We're going to do one more birthday banger for Rosa. Hi, Rosa. Hi, Rosa.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Hi, how's it going? Good. How's your hump day out of 10? Oh. A 5? A 5. Oh, a 5. That's an average hump. It's a mediocre hump, yeah. That's a mediocre hump. It's a middle of the road hump. That is a dry hump.
Starting point is 00:51:44 No. No. It is a dry hump. Anyway, let's bring it up to at least a seven with your birthday banger. What's your date of birth, Rosa? It's the 2nd of February, 1991. All right, Rosa. That means you were 16 in 2007. And here it is, Rosa, your birthday banger. Mika and Grace Kelly.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Remember that one? Yeah, I do. Yeah. What would you pick out of the three, Rosa? I don't know. It's hard. It is hard, yeah. You.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Okay. Yeah, I love all of those songs except for Mika. Yes. It's so hard because those are all such great songs except for Mika. I feel like, yeah, Mika's probably third for sure for me. I can't go past. I mean, I love that London Beat song. Oh, I tell you that, you already blew it.
Starting point is 00:52:38 But it's Madison Avenue. It's Madison Avenue. Yeah. The winner of Birthday Banger is Sarah today. Congratulations, Sarah. Perfect. Thank you. Let's go back to the year 2000 with Madison Avenue for Birthday Banger on ZM. Brian Clint.
Starting point is 00:52:50 Oh, this is good. Love it. Sounds remarkably like their other song, but don't let that. Very similar. Don't let that come into it, okay? The other song was great, which means this song. Also great. This is good. I said before that I've found a new way to cook pasta.
Starting point is 00:53:18 And it's not new. It's new to me. It's like a cooking hack. I love a hack. I love a hack that works. I hate a hack that doesn't work. I feel like this hack is really good, but I also don't cook a lot of pasta, so it could be garbage. But you cook a lot of pasta.
Starting point is 00:53:35 I cook an absolute shit tonne of it. And you are Italian by birth. I am. So you could decide whether it's a good thing. Okay. Give it to me. What is it? So this pasta hack
Starting point is 00:53:45 is called passive pasta. Okay. Or as Nigella Lawson calls it, Vincenzo Agnese method pasta. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Okay. She's so fancy, isn't she? I love Nigella Lawson. Except when she's talking about microwaves. Which I've warmed in the microwave.
Starting point is 00:54:03 I love her. Even then, pretty fancy. Passive pasta uses 80% less power or gas to cook your pasta. How? It's environmentally friendly. It's budget conscious.
Starting point is 00:54:16 You cook it in a hot bath. Yeah, you're in there with it. After you've been in there. No. So what you do, this is how you make passive pasta. You bring the water up to the boil and then you add in your pasta. Okay. You leave it on the boil for two minutes. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:31 And then you turn it off and you put a thin tea towel over the pot. Okay. Place the lid on the pot and then depending on the type of pasta that it is, you leave it for a certain amount of minutes and then it's cooked. So for example, if it's spaghetti, you leave it for a certain amount of minutes and then it's cooked. So, for example, if it's spaghetti, you leave it for eight minutes. If it's spirals, you leave it for 10 minutes. If it's macaroni, you leave it for six minutes. There's a chart that you can look at and figure it out.
Starting point is 00:54:56 That you can follow. And then, so you just set a timer. You just go, hey, Siri, set a timer for six minutes. And then in six minutes, you drain your macaroni and it's done. Ba-da-bing, ba-da-boom. You don't have to watch it, and you don't have to stir it, and it's easy. Seems, you know, like are you really saving that much power?
Starting point is 00:55:21 Yeah, 80%. 80% of the power? Yeah. That you'd normally use to cook pasta? Yeah, well, you're only running the element for two minutes plus what it takes to get it up to boil. You'd want a clean tea towel because... Oh, yeah, definitely a clean tea towel. Thin tea towel too?
Starting point is 00:55:34 Yeah, if you don't have a... They said not one of those waffle tea towels too. I don't know why, but they said not a waffle tea towel. What's a waffle tea towel? You know, with the waffle pattern in it. A waffle tea towel. Oh, they pick up everything, don't they? I don't know why, but...
Starting point is 00:55:45 Yeah. Anyway, is it a good hack or is it not a good hack? I think it's a good hack. Am I going to do it? Absolutely not. Why not? I just... CBF.
Starting point is 00:55:55 Right. I just want to cook it the old school way. But this is perfect pasta. It's perfect. Well, maybe I'll try it and see if it's perfect because I've got a pretty good hack to see if pasta is, to cook pasta perfectly. Oh, yeah, what is it?
Starting point is 00:56:10 You pick some of the pasta out of the pot. Yeah. And then you throw it against the wall. And if it sticks, it's ready. I thought you were going to say you pick some out of the pot and you put it in your mouth. And if it's yum, then it's good. Then it's good to go.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Bree and Clint. We are the leading show for aviation-based news. And this next story will give me nightmares, Clint. Okay. Because... Convertible aeroplanes. Convertible? Oh.
Starting point is 00:56:39 Drop the top. Yeah, that is terrifying. Wind the window down. Not for me. So isn't this story because breaking news this week. There was a flight that was
Starting point is 00:56:51 that took off from Las Vegas to Columbus, Ohio in America on Southwest Airlines and it was on the flight 6013. Can you give me some more details? It was on the flight 6013. Can you give me some more details? It was an early morning flight, left about 10 to 35.
Starting point is 00:57:11 No, I don't know those details. What are we talking, Airbus? I'm just trying to avoid the next details of what happened because it's actually so scary. Right. And I've thought about this when I've been on a flight before. All right, well, big girl pants. Picture this.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Get us through it. So they take off. They're away. They're up in the air and the pilot falls ill. Okay. That's why you have a co-pilot. So ill that he could not fly the plane. It doesn't give details exactly what happened,
Starting point is 00:57:41 but he could not fly the plane. Incapacitated. Incapacitated. Incapacitated. It says here that the plane needed to make an emergency landing. It needed to be diverted back to Las Vegas. And one of the passengers aboard the flight had to take the reins and get up there and fly the plane back. Yeah, no, no thanks.
Starting point is 00:58:08 So it says that one of the passengers, thankfully, had enough experience. On what, a flight simulator? To help land the plane with guidance provided over the radio. Where was the co-pilot? This is the detail it doesn't give in the story. Is Southwest like a budget airline? It is a bit of a budget airline in the radio. Where was the co-pilot? This is the detail it doesn't give in the story. Is Southwest like a budget airline? It is a bit of a budget airline in the States.
Starting point is 00:58:29 You save money on tickets. We save money on pilots. Exactly. Pour your own drinks. I could not even imagine. Can you picture the air staff, the crew, they come out into the passenger area and they say, does anyone have experience flying and landing a plane?
Starting point is 00:58:51 You know, my toxic trait is that I feel like in that situation. Would you put your hand up? I'd go, nah, but I'll give it a go. Because obviously I don't know what I'm doing. But I'd be like, will they talk me through it? There's co-pilot. Yeah, or not. No, but like the, what's it doing, but I'll be like, will they talk me through it? There's co-pilot. Yeah, or not. No, but like the, what's it called?
Starting point is 00:59:08 Autopilot. Autopilot. Jeez, you don't want me flying the plane. Jesus. Bree's like, what does this button do? Whoa! That's fun. But I honestly feel like they could just talk me through it.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Like, how hard can it be? I said it was a toxic trait, but that is how I feel. Yeah, see, this is why this story terrifies me. I feel like it's all about confidence. No, I feel like it's not. I feel like it's about knowing what the bloody hell you're doing. Anyway, the passenger was able to land the plane safely. See?
Starting point is 00:59:41 How hard can it be? What a nightmare. I would never fly again. I'd be like, are you serious? I'd never fly southwest again. Well, yeah, true. Yeah. Play ZM's Brand Clint.
