You tapped it, so we're playing it. It's ZDM's Brean Clint, the podcast. ZDEM's Brie and Clint, covering breakfast. Atamaria, everybody, and welcome to the Breinclint Breakfast Bonanza. Wait, has anyone got deja vu? Weren't we just here? We were literally just here. When we left last night, we said goodbye to the security guard,

who works here at NZME at the ZDM towers. And as we came in this morning, we said good morning, to the same security guards. He's like, wait a second. Wait. What are you guys doing back? Huh? We're like, we love it so much.

We can't stay away. You can't have the title of hardest working show and radio without actually doing the work. Also, apologies for anyone that doesn't love our show because now you have to... Overload. You get it from both ends. Yeah, yeah.

We're like Radio Gastro. Oh, you made it gross. I thought getting Bree and Clinton both ends could be a good thing. No, don't make it dirty. Make it gross. That's my motto. It literally is not your motto.

Okay. Yeah, keep it sexy. Keep it cute. That's my motto. Do you know who Kim.com is? Do you know Kim.com? A bit of a, like, he's almost a New Zealand meme. He's like New Zealand's original super villain.

Remember when we saw his car driving around Queenstown that time? We saw his G-Wagon. Yeah. The story today about him is wild because they're trying to, the states are trying to get him extradited and sent back to the US to, to four. face criminal charges for piracy.

Right. Do you know? And so he's here in New Zealand and they can't get him unless we extradite him. Do you know, I read today if they get him in America, they want to put him in jail for 150 years. What? A hundred and fifty years. How old is he?

I don't know. It doesn't matter how old you are. He's going to be so old when he gets out. Yeah. Probably have to do a Shawshank Redemption. Oh, dig his way out. Yeah. I don't mean to be.

sizes, but he'll need a big hole. He'll have to dig twice as much, three times as much as Andy Duframed. Hey, don't talk about him like that. True, true. All right, let's get into it, guys. We've got a fun show on the way for you guys. Don't ask what it is. But next, there's a strong chance that Bree and I may have killed a disco superstar overnight.

This is crazy. Like, if you ever doubted that we were living in a simulation, we're going to confirm it for you. Play ZDN's Brean Clint. Disturbing headline, but it could be true, did we, the Brean Clint show, accidentally kill a member of the village people overnight? I feel real sad if that's the truth. Stupid conversation that came out of nowhere yesterday

where you had the idea to try and find a family whose family members represented every person in the village people. The cop, the builder, the cowboy, the soldier, the biker, and the Native American. We got close. We got close. We didn't quite get there. But there was a comment that was made during this break yesterday on our afternoon show at about 5 o'clock.

So this happened yesterday afternoon? This was yesterday afternoon. Did you know that the village people are still touring? No. You can see them. They've got a show coming up on the 12th of July in Italy. Back-to-back shows actually happening in Italy in July. Back-to-back village people.

Didn't the lead village person just die recently? Like I wonder with these acts How many of the original cast are still in there? Five o'clock yesterday, I asked the question, Did the lead village person die recently? The news article that comes out overnight, Bree? Overnight, a couple hours ago, the lead singer Victor Willis

Of the village people dead at 74. What the hell? Not just any village person. We hate you, Clint. Why would you do that to us? Why would you take away the village people? I don't know. It's terrible.

You put it out into the universe and then I'm so mad at you. What if this is a power that I have? Oh my God, don't. Unwittingly. Say I'm going to win the lotto. No, what if I can only predict deaths? What if that's my thing? What if I'm like the grim reaper and when it comes into my mind?

Like, I don't choose them. We've described you as that before. No. Behind your back. When I wear that hoodie. You know, what if in my mind... Who's next? Oh, Lionel Richie.

Don't do that. I don't mean to. It just came to me. I don't want it to be Lionel Richie. I love Lionel Richie. That's awful. Yeah. Yeah.

What? Why couldn't you say someone... No, not Lionel Richie. Why couldn't you say someone that all of us dislike? I don't get to choose. It just came into my mind. Um, okay, sorry, who do you, who do you want me to murder? Who's our new hitler?

Not Lionel Richie. I could think of a few. You don't want to know the one that just came into my mind. You don't want to know the one that just came into, because I don't choose these. It just came into my mind. Who? You don't want to know.

If you have picked someone that I love, I will stab you with your arm. I'm going to say it because I don't believe that I'm making these things happen. I believe that maybe I can forecast them and I can. If you take someone I love away from me, I will come for you. Sure. I don't want it to happen. I'm so mad at you.

I don't want it to happen. I don't want it to happen. I have genuine rage for you right now. Yeah, me too. I'll be gutted. I'll be gutted. I love being right. I don't want to be right this time.

You know? I don't. God, you could have said Vladimir. You know? Putin? Yeah. Okay. I'm Vladimir.

Okay. I feel better. It's more balanced. Didn't feel genuine though, did it? Didn't feel authentic. So anyway, RIP, lead village person. Which one was he? Did you not?

Was he the cowboy, the cop, the lead singer? No. Yeah, RIPP Victor Willis. Guard of honour. At the funeral. That's really sad. Z.m's Bree and Clint podcast. It's Treaty versus Ladies.

Three, two, one, let's go. Yes, Trady versus Lady in the morning. We keep score, and currently the Trades are on 48 wins for the year. The lady's on 53. Our ladies in Auckland, she's 24, and she's looking forward to a good gym session today. Welcome to the show, Caitlin. Let's go games. What are we hitting?

Yeah, what are you hitting today? I have no idea yet. I'm going to think of that out later. Do you do like an F-45 or something? Do you go in and pump some weights? Waits. Nice. Yeah.

All right, Caitlin, you're taking on our tradie from Queensland. She's 20 and she is going to Singapore next week. Welcome to the show Storm. Hi, Storm. Hi. Lucky you. What are you going to Singapore for? Just for a holiday with my family.

How nice. Hot in Singapore at the moment? Oh yeah, between 33 and 34 degrees. I think always hot in Singapore. Yeah, right. Like relatively. And humid. Yeah, quite.

Quite yamid. Storm, let's go with names as our buzzers to keep it nice and clear. Storm and Caitlin. And the first one of you two to give us three correct answers gets $50 cash this morning. Good luck. Here we go. Question number one. LeBron James announced yesterday that he is leaving which NBA team?

Storm. Yes, Storm. The Lakers? Yeah. It is the Lakers. Rumour has it. He's going to the Golden State Warriors. Yeah.

So staying in California. Question number two, where in the world would you find the Christ the Redeemer statue? Just the country. Yes, storm? Have a guess. Vietnam? No, not Vietnam. Caitlin, go on, throw out a country.

That big statue of Jesus with his arms out. Brazil? Yeah, it is Brazil. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is correct. We are won a piece in this game. Question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me, Who sings this?

Caitlin. Sabrina Carpenter. It is Sabrina Carpenter. That was a close one. Two to the ladies. One to the tradies. Question number four. Which part of the human body can grow back if a portion is removed?

Caitlin. Yes, Caitlin. For the win. Liver. Gosh, you've got it. Caitlin, off to the gym. Congratulations. You're a Traity versus Lady champion.

you've got 50 bucks cash coming your way. Yay! Thank you so much. Sweet as. That was music to a lot of people who had a big weekend's ears. What's that? That the liver can grow back a portion. I think you have to cut the bad bit off. Oh, got it.

Well done, guys. Have a good day. Enjoy Singapore Storm. Thank you. Sweet as. Is that the hangover cure? You've got to go in and cut off half your own liver. That's grim.

Drink responsibly. You're like, I'll try it. I'll do anything. I still don't feel like this anymore. There is. What was the last letter that you think you sent? Can you think, and I know we sent her, I won to your mum, we sent her radio award.

Yep. Which was an oversized letter. I reckon it's more of a package, that one, wasn't I? Yeah. Yeah, what was the last letter that you sent? Um, well, the post office gives me anxiety. Oh, yeah, you're scared of the post office. I'm quite scared because I'm just out of my element.

Yeah. You know, I don't send stuff often. But you could use a mailbox. Can you use a mailbox? Wait, what do you mean? You know, mailboxes on the street where you drop your letters up. Do they still exist? Well, there's one outside the post office.

Yeah, but you're scared of the post office. Yeah, I just don't want to go anywhere near it. You give the post office a wide berth. And the crazy thing is... If you don't go into the post office, where are you going to buy your commemorative Lord of the Rings coins? You know? Why do the post office have a monopoly on commemorative coins?

I'm stocked up on those. Are you? Yeah. But it's crazy because everyone at the post office is so lovely. They are. I've always found them fantastic. So nice. Yeah.

But I'm just terrified. I can't think of the last letter I sent either. I love the idea. I've got it on my list, actually. This is good for me because it's on my list to send your auntie a letter. That's right. It's on my to-do list. My auntie Annette regularly sends us letters and she'll send a letter and inside will be a letter for me and a letter for you.

I'm your letter conduit. Yeah. I get you the letter. So yes, you do that. Well, it's going to cost you a lot more because from the 1st of July, is that today? that yesterday. From yesterday, the price of sending a standard letter in New Zealand is going up to $3.60 to send a letter.

$3.60? Just like a little piece of paper? Yeah. Like a card. It's up a dollar since 2018. Oversized letters like the one we sent your mum, $4.90 to send one of those. Crazy.

Is that just like around the country, like locally? Or what about to send overseas? Oh no, way more. Way more obviously. Way more. to do that. I don't even want to know. My pricing is so stuck in the past.

I think because I haven't sent any letters, but I'm like, oh, letters, 40 cents. You know what we should do? We should test, you know who's pricing really is stuck in the past on everything is my dad? Oh, yeah. Because he never buys really anything, and all he does is farm.

He's just out on the farm. We should test him tomorrow on the price of things. His measurements stuck in the past, too. Like, would we have to ask him? how much for a gallon of milk? I don't know. We should test him. Yeah.

Like my mum always lies to him when she buys something, like a pair of, say she bought a pair of shoes. Yeah. He'll always be like, how much were these? And she just like automatically... Thruppence? Yeah. Automatically just halves it.

Just two shillings. Just a couple of chickens. These fans, three, Bob. Yeah, producer. You know the letter that we have just sent to your mum? Do you want to know how much that cost? Because it was overseas. It was overseas.

The details. it's a flat like bubble envelope. A4, A4 letter. With a single piece of paper inside. And a single piece of cardboard to keep it rigid. And you used a bubble, bubble sleeve. And it was just going across the ditch. It wasn't like it was going to Sweden.

How much to send that to Bree's mum? $35. Excuse me? What? I told them the value of it was like, say 20 bucks. And they were like, okay, cool, $35. And I was like, okay, okay. No, you're shitting me.

$35. $35 good New Zealand dollars. This is good. You're lying. This is good because now you've got an excuse for when you don't send your mum a birthday present. You're like, mum, I can afford the present or the postage. Not both. That is the most outrageous thing I have heard in months.

So $3.60, I'll take it, frankly. Wait, 30. I'd still come. $30. It was worth more than the piece of paper inside it. Should we all send each other a letter? Yes, I would love that. We'd be pen pals.

The pen pals are going to, they're going to be extinct. Is it the death of pen pals? Why would you send a letter when you can type an email that's free? $35 to send a piece of paper to your mother in Australia. Why? She's like, it's lovely, guys. You could have just emailed it and I kind of printed it out. I can't believe that.

Well, there you go. Now you know. Oh my God. ZM's Brinklint. Covering breakfast. Morning, guys. Show's watching by Chemist Warehouse. You can score up to 40% off winter essentials right now at Chemist Warehouse.

We're still getting used to this whole morning situation, like reversing your day, having breakfast while you're at work. You've got the worst-looking breakfast I've seen for a while. I made myself an overnight oats. And our producer, Claudia, described it as. prison gruel. She said I was having prison gruel for breakfast. It looks like dog's sick.

It's so wet. Hey, I put a little bit too much milk in my overnight oats, okay? And they're a bit sloppy. Those cooking skills need a bit of work. There's no cooking involved in overnight oats. I was trying to be nice. Well, it tastes fine, okay? It's like an oat soup.

It looks like you couldn't find a cup for your smoothie and you've put it in Tupperware. Oat soup. Well, it's gray because of the blueberries, okay? Millennial gray. Hey, here's the question for you. What do you think is the most fun building in New Zealand? Might sound like a weird question, but a building that brings you joy when you see it.

Like, for example, my kids, when they see the Sky Tower, they love it. The Sky Tower's got a whole personality to them. But I'm thinking more fun than that. I know what it is. Yeah? Family Bar. No, FamilyBide isn't...

It's a building. Yeah, but it's not a fun shape, you know? You just have fun memories of being inside it. You just said a fun building. And my mind went straight to Family Bar. Have you seen Saloon? They've got seats that are saddles. Is that inside Family Bar?

Yeah, Saloon is like one part of inside of Family Bar. And you sit on the saddle, it's great. I need to go back to Family Bar. Zed Am's Brinclint. Two of... Three, actually. of the most fun buildings in New Zealand are up for sale at the moment. I thought about it.

Can I have another guess? Yes, you can. Is it Puzzle World? In Warnaca? Puzzle World is fun and it's got the clock tower on the lean, doesn't it? It's not even on the lean, it's like literally just on one corner. It's just kind of resting there. I think builders described that as on the piss.

Mate, that clock tower is on the piss. Mate, that clock tower is passed out. No, it's not that. And it's very North Island centric, but if you have seen them, you will know. Like every North Islander has seen these. The buildings that have just come onto the market for sale is Tito's corrugated iron sheep, corrugated iron ram and corrugated iron dog buildings.

I love these buildings. I'm iconic. They're so iconic. Every time we've driven past them, I'm always like, hoo, look those. It's a big call, but I reckon they're the best part of Tito. You know, like it kind of gave that place a reason to be. Put them on the map.

Put them on the map big time. And then the whole town crafted its personality around corrugated iron. They're like, oh yeah, we are corrugated iron. They're a work of art, really. I agree. They are true Kiwiana, these building sculptures. They currently house an SPCA charity shop, secondhand shop, and a visitor information centre.

I love them so much. Yeah, well, they're all for sale. All three of them. I've been waiting. I've been biding my time for this to come up. Okay. So I'm in the market. I would love to buy these iconic buildings.

How much? Holiday home? Is that where you're looking at? Hell yeah. What do you want to repurpose them as? I think what would I want the, which one would I pick to be my holiday home? Dog's the most fun. Yeah, probably the dog.

Dogs off on his own. Sheep and ram are gathered together. Pretty fun to say I'm going to go holiday in the ram. Oh yeah, you're off to the ram. And I'm a capricorn. So, you know? No price tag as with all. Oh, boo.

all property sales. They do generate $110,000 in rental income each year. What, each or all three? All three, yeah, yeah. Okay. So the astute property investor will know what to do with those numbers. No word yet on whether Tito is also selling the corrugated iron Jesus. He's another town icon.

Yeah. I've never seen the corrugated iron Jesus. If you're coming into Tito from the Auckland side, Yeah. He's basically the first person you see. The shepherd, welcoming you in. If you're coming from the Rotorua side, he's just past the dog. There he is.

There he is. There's corrugated eye in Jesus. Yeah. He can't, look, I'm not going to lie. Yeah. He looks more like Joseph to me. Oh, okay. Looks more like Joseph, not like Jesus.

Well, he's a shepherd. So Joseph was a carpenter. No, Jesus was a carpenter. Because Joseph was a carpenter. Because Joseph was a carpenter. Yeah, why does he look like a shepherd? Was Joseph a shepherd? No, he was a carpenter.

Oh. Should we ask the one on the show who still goes to church, Ella? Producer Ella should know. Ella, was Joseph a shepherd or a carpenter? He was a carpenter. So who was the shepherd? The shepherds, I don't know. The three wise men, weren't they shepherds?

No. Or were they? I don't know. I think they were. a lot from your child with learning. Jesus is the shepherd because we are the flock, right? No, that's metaphorically. I know metaphorically.

Hey, most of it's metaphorically. I don't reckon he genuinely walked on water either. Don't be calling me as sheep. Well, isn't Jesus the good shepherd? Yeah. Metaphorically, he didn't actually have sheep, did he? Whoa, Ella's last name is shepherd. Whoa, it's the statue of Ella.

Whoa, it's Ella. Is Ella Jesus? And we began this conversation, took him. about a sheep building that's for sale. What they are? Guys, is Jesus among us right now? Holy Spirit is here. Their name's Bree and Clint podcast. Filling in for Fletchhorn and Haley.

The TV show Secret Wives of Mormon Wives. Secret lives of Mormon wives. Secret lives. Yeah. Secret lives. Secret wives. Secret wives. No, secret lives.

Yeah. Of Mormon wives. Yes. Secret Wives of Mormon Wives would be a more interesting. show, wouldn't it? Well, funny you say that because the news out in the last couple of days, one of the wives from the show has come out as bisexual. Oh. Scandal in the Mormon church.

How do the Mormons feel about bisexuality? I don't think very good. Oh, really? Actually, I shouldn't comment because I don't know, but I'm assuming. You'd assume not very good. Yeah, yeah. She is dating a woman, hence why she is now felt like she needs to come out. And her name is my favorite thing about this story.

Yes. Her name is Layla Taylor. Layla Taylor. You heard correct. And here she is talking about coming out. It's just something that I honestly didn't really know how to formally address for a long period of my life. And that it's, I'm gay. and I'm over not showing every part of Leila to the world.

And yeah, I'm very proud to be by and I'm very proud now to be out. Good for Leila Taylor. Good on her. Yeah. That's awesome. She's 25 and she said that her religious upbringing didn't allow her to openly express her attraction to both men and women.

So is she not a Mormon wife anymore? Is she a Mormon ex-wife? Well, I'd assume that her and her husband have separated. You'd assume. Well, she's dating a woman now. Yeah. So, unless he's very understanding.

We have no idea how Mormonism works. Not a clue. We have no idea. I've seen, none of us even knew they were this hot until the TV show came out. I've seen the musical. Oh yeah, the book of Mormon.

That's fantastic. Yeah, yeah. That's great. But good for her. And I guarantee there are a few bisexuals in that musical. 100%. No doubt in my mind.

Oh, good news. for Layla Taylor. Good on you, Layla Taylor. Her name's fantastic. Her name's the best, but we can't skim over the fact of that. Her name is Layla Taylor. And it got us talking amongst the show. Have you met someone with a rhyming name? Do you have a rhyming name? And producer Claude said that there's a guy that works at the new cafe that's open just outside of work. Yeah. And his name is Sam Cam. Sam Cam, yeah. is he the one that Claudia has a crush on? I think she's got a crush on all of them.

Oh, really? Well, that's good. That's good to keep your options broad. Yeah. Sam, producer Ella's like, you shouldn't be talking about that. Why? Why can't we talk about that? Oh, she's just not here to defend herself.

No, that's literally why I talked about it. Oh, great. While we're on the topic, should we set something up? Yeah, well, that's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to manifest it for Claudia. We set her up with Sam Cam. Is this the guy with the hat? And then if they get married, she can be Claude Cam.

Claude Cam. That's fun. Yeah, yeah. I like it. Sam Cam could be accidental because his name could be Samuel Cameron, you know? Yeah. Whereas Layla Taylor, Layla's not short for anything. No, it's not.

They knew. Layla Taylor's parents knew when they named Layla Taylor, Layla Taylor, that it was going to be a rhyming name. Just circling back on Claudia's love for Sam Cam, and they're going to get married and Claudia's going to be Claudia Cam. When they have a kid, they should name him Handy. Handy. Handy.

Cam? Oh, see, it's lost on Gen Z because they... Oh, I know the camera. Because they never had the camera. I thought you were being rude. I thought you were sorry. It was like, you should name him iPhone. Like iPhone camera.

Name him AI. What? I don't know. Damn. It's early. The ZD.M. Podcast Network. Brings me so much joy. Who's got the rhyming name?

India is here. Morning, India. Hi, India. Good morning. Good morning. Who's got the rhyming name, India? Well, I'm really hoping that they're not listening, but one of my friends from high school, her mom's name is Sue. Yeah.

And she married and took the last name of Mr. Glue. You are joking. Her name's Sue Glue. She's Sue Glue. That's so much. I don't know if you should take the surname Glue, even if your first name isn't Sue. Yeah. Like, it's not, no offence to any of our glue family listening, but...

It's a bold choice. bold choice and it's definitely a choice too. I want to know what her last name was because it probably was the better choice for the family. It's got to be bad, doesn't it? It's got to be bad. Yeah, geez. That's perfect, India.

Thank you so much. Very good. Heaps of text coming through on this. Someone said I went to school with Jade Slade. Jade Slade, love it. Someone said, I used to know a guy, Donald McDonald. Another one. My cousin in Scotland is Donald McDonald.

There we go. Someone else, oh, this one's so good. first teacher at school her name was Judy Clark then she married a guy named John Udi and yes she took his surname so her name was Judy Udi No I love it so fun so glue and Judy Udi so cute wait so they are John and Judy Udi yep that's brilliant Is there a conversation that happens like do you yeah do you as John Udi do you go I love you and I want to marry you, I do not expect you to become Judy Udi. Or do you have that much pride in your wife taking your last name that you just... The Udi name shall continue.

Breeze over the fact that it sounds awful. This one is cute and it's classic grandparent names too. Someone said, my grandparents are Bevan Trev. Bevan Trev, I love that. Which is Beverly and Trevor, which on the face of it... It's fine. It's fine. On the wedding certificate, Beverly and Trevor.

To everyone else, Bevan Trev. and Trev. Hannah's here. Morning, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Morning. Tell us, do you know someone with a rhyming name? Well, my granddad was called John Johnson.

That's great. That is great. And so his parents would have named him that. Yeah, but he was like one at eight. So by that point, I think, man, run out a name. Right of the names. Yeah, yeah. Surely they could have picked any other name rather than John.

Did he have a son? Yeah, my dad. Yeah, so that's your dad. And he's Ian John Johnson. So, but he is John Johnson's son. Yes. Wow. I don't call my granddad Jack.

And I didn't realize I was like a living that his actual name was John. I love his music. Wait, your dad's name's Jack Johnson. No, no, my granddad. Everyone called him Jack. Oh, yeah, because I didn't want to call him John Johnson. Yeah, yeah, yeah, fantastic. That's brilliant.

Thank you, Hannah. Similar to that one, someone said it doesn't really rhyme, but my fiancé's name is Taylor. And my last name is, is Taylor, so she's going to be Taylor Taylor. Does she want that? I don't know if she does. I met a girl once called Ellison Ellison.

Maybe I should do this one. I once met a girl called Allison Ellison. Ellison is her husband's surname, obviously. How do you do that? Allison Ellison. Can you do it, Claudia? Is it just my Fox New Zealand accent that can't do it? I'd say Alison Ellison.

That's the sake. No, that's right. So we figured out you can't do it. What about Ella? Ella, can you do it? Allison Illison. Oh, she really tried her. But you sounded like this when you were talking.

It's ZAM's Breeneclint podcast. How many times can you take back a faulty item to get a new one before it's seen as taking the piss? Yeah. And how many times should you take an item back? Before you're like... I'll just have my money back, please. Maybe this item's not for me. Yeah.

Here's my situation. And it's hard because I love the product. Like, love it. Yes. One of my favorite pairs of shoes that's currently in my rotation. I love them, wear them all the time, are the Doc Martin loafers. Oh, yeah, they're very cool. They're so cool.

They're comfortable. I just love them. Look, I bought a pair last year. And I'd had them for a fair while, maybe six to eight months. And I noticed that there was a part of the loafer at the front of the shoe that was ripping. Like the leather, like the stitching. And it kind of ripped and then it completely came off. You had a flappy bit on your loafers, just flapping around.

Yeah, the loafer part was loafering. Yeah. And it was definitely like under 12 months that I'd had them. So I was like, I'll take them back to where I purchased them and just ask the question. because they're not cheap. No. They're quite expensive. What are they worth?

I think they're like 300. Hey? Yeah. Oh no, yeah, you're taking them back. They're leather. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're full leather. Yeah.

So I took them back and the people at the store were amazing. They were like, oh, yep, where's your receipt? Showed them the receipt, which was on my email. They were like, sweet, here's a new pair. Oh, they didn't even fix them. They just gave you another pair. Yeah, I was okay with them fixing them. I would have thought leather shoes they would fix them.

Yeah, I was like, I'm sweet with that. But no, they just handed over a new pair and away I went. Okay. So this new pair, I reckon I've worn not many times. No. I haven't seen you with them recently. That's because they're breaking. And the same place?

The same problem. Oh, yeah. And I'm devastated because I love the shoe. It's a great shoe, but obviously this is an issue that's not just me. And so now I'm like, today I'm going to take them back again. and I'm going to ask for another pair, but I feel like I just, I don't, I feel bad about it. I know what you mean.

Why do you want another pair? Because you know that they're going to break again. Why don't you just get your money back? Because I love them. I want them. Like I love the product. There is an argument that you have found an infinite shoe hack, you know, that you bought one pair of shoes,

and what you do is you wear these shoes for six months, and then they break, and then you go back and get a new pair of shoes. But the thing that annoys me is I don't want a new pair of docs, Everyone knows. Everyone that's a Doc Martin's wear and knows you break them in. They're better when they're worn in. And they mold to your foot and that's when they're really at their best. I get it.

You know, and I don't want to keep breaking in Doc Martin. Are you limited to? Like, are you only allowed, if the warranty on them is 12 months, can you only take them back for a maximum of 12 months? Like even if you have this next pair for a month. Yeah. And that takes you up to 12 months since you bought the first pair. Are they like, no, sorry, bro?

That's a good question. A part of me feels like it's my first. fault as well. Yeah, right? And the reason I say that is because I'm jamming my fat foot into these loafers, which, I mean, I've never, no one has ever described my foot as a fat foot. I've always had a, quite a slender. Can you not shame your own foot, please?

But I do feel that I'm on the cusp of a size 9 to a size 10. Yeah. And I'll be jamming my foot in a size 9. When you return these ones, can you ask for a size up? I need a replacement. I think the issue might be my fat foot. And so do you think that's what I should do? And then I can test the theory.

Maybe. It's ZM's Brean Clint podcast. Taylor Swift, Love Story on ZM with Brea and Clint filling in for Fletch, Ford and Haley. That's the song we are singing tomorrow for Friday Oakey. I can't believe we've never done it before. How have we never done it? I must warn people.

Yes. I fear that mine is going to be, Very one note, as they say. This should be your song to win. I shouldn't beat you in a Taylor Swift off. I have a feeling. You might. Well, we'll play it tomorrow and you can be the judge.

Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic, not really, but picking a movie title based on just the plot line, that she can do. Rehn Clint's. What's the plot? It's our big movie guessing game where you go head-to-head guessing movie plot lines with Bree,

and if you can beat her by getting two movies correct first, you win. We're meant to reset because you lost last week. I sure did. We're meant to reset at 50 bucks. We're not doing that. We're not bringing a $50 competition to the Big Breakfast Show, so I'm saying we kick this thing off at $300.

The pressure that you're putting on me... Yeah, we're not playing for $50. I'm not used to... Okay. These working hours, I'm in disarray. People are busy in the mornings, okay? People are busy. They don't have time to muck around for $50.

So we're playing for $300 and that's you, Tash. That's what you could win this morning and what's the plot? Hi, Tash. The steak's just got a whole lot bigger for you, Tash. 300 bucks. I know, so much pressure. It's okay, you can do it. You're telling me.

You can do it. You just have to get two movies correct first. I read out these plot lines. You buzz in with your name as soon as you think you know what it is. and have a guess. Okay, Tash? Yes. Our theme, because Taylor's wedding is rumoured to be this weekend and we're doing our Taylor takeover, we are taking a trip to New York through movies this week, and all of

these films are set in New York City. Okay. You ready, Tash? Best of luck, Tash. Movie number one, a recent college graduate lands a job working for one of the most brief. Wolf of Wall Street. Wolf of Wall Street Is incorrect.

Tarsh, do you want a free guess? The Devil West Prada. Devil West Prada is correct. One of Bree's favourite movies. Right in my wheeler. Oh no. Good on you, Tash. That was impressive. Movie number two set in New York City.

Match point for Tash. A writer takes on an unusual assignment that requires her to put a new relationship to the ultimate test. At the same time, an ambitious professional Tash. Is that sex in the city? Sex in the city. Is incorrect?

Confessions of a chocollot Brie I got nothing I'm going to get rid of this movie Now it's been too long It's How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Oh my course it is Movie number three said in New York City

A journalist becomes fascinated By a woman who has earned a reputation For repeatedly leaving her weddings Brie The Runaway bride Is correct Okay, Tarsh, it's you and I, tiebreak, let's go. $300 on the line, Tash.

Movie number three, set in New York City. A professional dating coach has built a successful career. Bree. Hitch. And that's why she's the goat. Oh, my God. You're so good, Bree. Mate, you're so good.

That was a really good round. We're incredible. Tash, we can't give you the $300, but we will find you a consolation prize if you hold the line, okay? Thank you so much. You appreciate it. Well, down, Tash. I, honestly...

You were sweating. Brie was sweating. I was sweating bullets during that. I sprung the $300 thing on, Bree. And you go, you better win. Just before we start it. Because I don't have the budget approved, do I? I just say these things and hope that it works out.

Lucky for you, it did. And it did. Play Zet. Seems Bree and cland. It's kind of ironic. Kind of ironic. Right now, isn't it? We were talking about big work mistakes

of this funny post that Ella found of this person posting their worst work mistakes. And we're like, yeah, we should definitely talk about that. That'd be funny. Everyone's made mistakes at work. And we forgot to get the link off our producer Ella, and now she's gone to the toilet. Don't worry, I think I've found it.

Oh, did you? Don't quote me on that, though, but I'm pretty sure I have. Oh, she's back. Hi, Ella. Have you got the link to the TikTok about the work mistakes? Here we go. I've got it here. Oh, that thing, yes.

God, I'm good. Says, I'm a dispatcher. I used to also work as a barista as a second job. One night I answered the 911 line with thank you for choosing Starbucks instead of where is your emergency. Oh, no. Then someone else said, I was in a meeting and didn't realize I was unmuted, proceeded to tell. my best friend who was also working from home, that our cat has diarrhea on the work meeting.

What was the one about the woman who muted her Zoom call so she could do a big fart? Yeah, she said she muted herself on the Zoom call, farted, and then realized that she was already muted, so she actually unmuted herself, farted and then muted herself. It just goes to show that it happens to the best of us, okay? You know? Yeah.

You're only human. Until you get replaced by AI, there's no way you can expect it to be perfect in the workplace. No. Someone else said, I put someone on hold for one and a half hours. I forgot that I'd answer the phone. Surely they didn't stay on hold. Oh, people do. For an hour and a half.

People do. That's happened heaps of times, I'm sure. where people need something sorted. You give that person gold star service as soon as you pick up the phone. You give them all the credits. You give them whatever they're asking for. Someone said,

I invited thousands of people to our 44th annual golf tournament by accident. Thousands of people. Thousands of people. Well, a successful golf event. Even if a fraction of them show up. Yeah. You know?

Someone said, I work as a server, accidentally forgot to put in an order for 30 minutes once I was brand new to serving I fessed up and apologised profusely and those absolute angels left me a 50% tip. Oh, that's so nice. Oh, that's lovely.

We want to know what your big work mistake was. Your balls up in the workplace. Did it cost you your job? Or did you have a good boss who was like, it's all good, it's just a job and it's all part of the learning process? I don't think I've ever had a boss that said that. Me neither, but it'd be nice if they're out there.

Surely there's got to be one. ZDM's Brie and Clint podcast. There's a post that's going viral on TikTok at the moment asking people to say what their big work mistake was. I think to make everybody else feel better about their work mistakes. Yeah, it happens. It happens to everyone. And man, there are some good ones like this.

Someone said I shared the wrong tab when I was sharing my screen on a team's call with my manager that had my CV and cover letter for another job application open. Oh, no. I think that's good. I think that's good to keep your boss guessing. You're like, I'm wanted. Yeah.

Oh, sorry, did you see that? I'm hot commodity. Is that an issue for you? Well, maybe you should try and keep me. Someone else said, I dropped like 200 pallets onto the roof of my forklift, 10K in repairs. Not ideal. Forklift mistakes are so high stakes. Yeah.

Like the damage you can do in those warehouses, like those videos of the people who like clip the corner of the stack of shelves and one shelf goes over and then the next shelf goes over and it's just like, Disaster. Dominoes? You know who is so smooth on a forklift? Who? My dad, Big Steve. Of course he is.

You should say him. Does he have a forklift? He's got multiple forklifts. That's what they have in the packing shed. With all the apple pellets? Oh, when you come and visit me, yeah. We'll get...

Actually, it might be dangerous for you to see my dad on a forklift. Nah, it'll be motivational. Yeah, true. You'd just be like, I watched Oscar PS3 reverse a trailer on Clarkson's farm last night. I imagine it'll be similar to that.

You know? Nick's here on 800 dollars at M. Morning Nick. Hi Nick. Morning. How are you? Good things. What was your big work mistake, Nick?

It's a safe space. We're sharing. Well, I went for a retailer in the admin office. Weeanking and all that. Yeah. And one day, I was probably only six months into the job. I should know the code. One day I was talking to the manager and got distraction,

distracted. And I put the code to the safe end. three times wrong and the soft got locked me out. No, what happens now? Unfortunately, they didn't have a backup code at the time and so we didn't have any access to the safe for about a week

and eventually they had to get the professionals in they ended up having to drill into the side of the safe no. They had to do the Italian job on your work save. Yes.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Well. Now, they got it open and now there's a big patch on the side of the safe where they tried to colour match it. But, yeah, so it's a constant reminder of my oopsie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Again, I like to find the silver linings in this and all you have done is help expose a security floor in the company where they didn't have a backup code, Nick. You've done them a favour? Yeah, yeah, I did. I did. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I would be thinking in that situation too. Becky's here. Hi, Becky. Hi, Becky. Hi. Yours involves getting locked out too, doesn't it? Yes. Yeah, I'd lock myself out of my day-kist into that I was cleaning on night shift by forgetting that the door locks by itself.

Yeah. And I had left my phone, my car keys, my house key, the work key, everything in there. And I came back in the morning and they were like, here's your keys. We don't need you anymore. No. You're kidding. You couldn't do anything about it. No, well, I wasn't quite at the end of my three months trial. I was thinking I was like a week left. Oh, right.

So they're like, oh, we're just going to cut our losses, Becky. That's so rough. That sucks, Becky. There's a famous story about a New Zealand radio host, Marcus Lush, who does the night show on News Talks Z. He did it when he went out for a cigarette or something. He locked himself out of the radio studio and couldn't get back in. And he does the night show. He goes up until midnight.

and he had to do the rest of his radio show on the phone from outside the studio. He got someone in Auckland to patch him in and then he does the show on his phone. What a lunatic. Kind of genius. This person wants to be anonymous. Hi Anonymous.

Hi Anonymous. Hello. God, must be bad if you can't even put your name to it. What was your big work mistake? It wasn't me. It was like on a big team's call like throughout all of New Zealand. Okay. And the person,

I shut the F-off and get to the point already. Did they think they were on mute? They just said what everyone was thinking out loud. The whole office turned around and looked at each other like. I think I would have started a slow clap. That's brilliant. Just to give that person. The person taking the call was like, mute yourself please.

I can hear you. I'm obsessed with your story. I feel like every workplace needs a shut the F up and get to the point person. Yep. Some great messages coming through about your big work mistake. Someone said, my boss asked me how I was. And I said my libido was really low because I thought that meant energy. That sounds like something producer Ella would do.

Someone else said, I made a tiramisu for a full dinner service and I used salt instead of sugar. Oh no. Devastating. Turam assault. I ordered $2,500 worth of custom tote bags with the company logo on it. Great. Instead of attaching the company logo, I attached a photo of my dog. Oh my God, you'd have tote bags forever.

Custom to you. You have infinite custom dog tote bags. That's crazy. What about this? I was working in HR and the HR manager and three other team members had all left. I was the last one. I had to find. someone so I looked up on Google how to fire someone I had it on my screen she

could see it from where she was sitting as I was firing her to fire someone you watch a YouTube video on how to fire someone the woman said are you about to fire me I said no and then proceeded to fire her anyway that's dating Franklin filling in for Fletchbourne and Haley We're free and cleanse. All I want from my birthday is to the birthday banger. Yes, welcome to birthday banger. We do this every afternoon on our show where you call us, tell us your birthday,

We'll put this in our... now Bree and Clint podcast you can play it to them after school, Cecilia. Great. All right. Well, let's see what you get.

Yeah, that's all right. That'll do. How old are your kids? Sex. Nine and ten. Oh yeah, so they'll go, what a, what a hump's, mum? What are they talking about lovely lady lumps? Are they talking about a camel, mum?

Busy morning, let's do your birthday banger, Kate. What's your day to? birth? 3rd August, 981. Right, Kay, that means you were 16 in 1997. And on that day in 97, this was number one. Oh, cute.

What do you reckon, Kate, Men and Black, Will Smith? Yeah, that's a good idea. It's fine, eh, yeah. I like that one from Will Smith. Great, great music video. That movie was huge. Yeah. Remember they did a Men and Black 3rd?

recently with Chris Hemsworth. They sure did. Yeah, right. Jody gets a birthday banger this morning as well. Morning, Jody. Hi, Jodes. Morning. Where are you going to, Jodes?

Just dropping the little ones off at school. Oh, lovely. Well, let's... Nice one. Let's do your birthday banger. What is your day to birth? 19th of March, 1926. All right, that means you were 16 in 2012.

I mean, who was it? In 2012, what 16-year-old wasn't a masternator? We all were. Yeah, yeah. Okay, wait there, Jody. We're going to choose good lineup of songs today. My Humps, Men in Black, Rees Maston. I like all three.

I know we did it for Birthday Aoki just last week, but I think I'm going to vote for my Humps. You're in the move for some lovely ladylums, are you? Yeah, I think some morning humps could go down well. I am not going to deny you if that's what you say. You're in the needle? You're going to deny me a morning hump. Hey, Cecilia, well done.

You can tell the kids after school that you won birthday banger. Hell yeah. Yes. Amazing. From the year 2005, this is Cecilia's birthday banger on ZM with Brian Clins. What are you going to do with all that junk inside your trunk? ZM's. Brian Clint.

Black IPs on ZDM with Brian Clint. It's the winner of birthday banger today for Cecilia from 2005. Some great texts on that. Someone said, guys, my muscle memory came out strong as soon as you started that birthday banger.

I'm just picturing whoever that is crumping in their car. Someone said, great choice, guys. Obviously, it's my humps, but I probably would have preferred Bree's version from last week. We got you on that one. We're all good.

That's our Fridayokey last week. Someone also requested a little bit of clints. My love, my love, my love, my love. You love my lady loves. Look. Tomorrow's Friday, Oakey, Taylor Swift, love story. Bray's got her excuses in early. I don't know if people said that my humps was my...

That was your Mona Lisa. And who would have thought that my humps would have done it? If you haven't put your best foot forward for Taylor Swift Love Story, I think you need to go back in. to the studio and re-record today. It's Taylor's wedding this weekend. And it's, we're doing the breakfast show, mate. You've got to put your best foot forward.

Hey, I always try and put my best foot forward. But sometimes my best foot is a sprained ankle, so to speak. Every week can be your humps. No, and I fear it's going to be a very monotone version tomorrow. Z&M's Breanclint, podcast. Does the order in which you were born have any influence on your intelligence. That is the question.

Your intelligence relative to your siblings, right? Exactly. Like, is the eldest, the smartest, is the middle, the second smartest, and is the youngest? The dumbest. The dumbest. There's a lot of studies that have been done on this, apparently.

Can I give you my rankings before you give the actual... Go on. So I'll go from smartest to dumbest, okay? Okay. eldest, youngest, middle. That's how I, it's how I rank. Wait, so you're saying the eldest is the smartest? Always.

The youngest is the second smartest. Yeah, because they get extra investment when the eldest in the middle leave the house. And the middle is the dumbest. Yeah, because they're overlooked. How dare you? They're lacking in resource. How dare you?

Some might say that the middle child has to work the hardest, hence they might be the smartest. Could be. could be if they've got the motivation. There are anomalies. If they've got, listen to this bloody eldest child over here, I tell you what. But it's true and you agree with me because you say that the middle child is often overlooked. You know?

Doesn't mean that. And it's not your fault. It's just that you're not special, you know? First is special because it's first. Last is special because it's last. Middle. First is obviously arrogant as well. Several major.

studies suggest that the order in which the children are born may have a small influence. Oh my God, if I am right, I am going to be so happy. I literally just contemplated whether I should tell a lie. Take me out of it. You can't tell a lie. There's research that was done at the University of Oslo, where they studied Norwegian men. Only men, might I add. But the study did find that the middle child was the smartest.

No, you're lying. Damn it, it was the firstborn. Yes. I will say the firstborn scored slightly higher on average in intelligence tests than their younger siblings. Slightly, I mean, the difference was relatively small but consistent enough to attract scientific attention. So they didn't rank the other. They just said, oldest is smartest. And the rest not interested.

Yeah, not in this study that I can see. And they do put it down to the fact that first-born children receive the parents full attention. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Yeah. Their man, the youngest, are the only ones that have the opportunity to have uninterrupted attention.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, by the third child. Yeah. they're like, oh, they'll learn off the other ones. Texts coming in from people, sampling the market, says, as a middle child, I can confirm we are the dumbest.

Hey! That's not me, that's the... Hey, middle child, we need to ban together, us middle children. Can confirm middle child is the smartest. First one is always a dad. The last one was a mistake. The middle child is always the smartest. Whoa, someone said my middle child is...

by far my brightest, doing all the hard subjects and getting excellent credits. Come on. Look at this person ranking their twins. My twin A is smarter than my twin B. Which one's older? Twin A. Oh. I'm sure that's how you're doing it, aren't you?

Or are they just ranking them in order of who's smarter, twin A? I disagree with Clint. The middle child is more successful as they have to fend for themselves and find their own way. This is what I've always said. You're disagreeing with me, Texer, okay? You're disagreeing with science. Well, the... We had the facts.

There was also studies done into the personality traits of eldest, middle, and youngest. Do you want to hear? Yeah. It says firstborn children are more likely to be the most responsible ones, which I mean... Yeah. Boring. Middle children... And correct boring.

Middle children are often the most independent. And youngest siblings are frequently described. as the most spontaneous or adventurous. Yeah, because they have no responsibilities, the youngest. Life to the youngest is just all sunshine and rainbows. They're like, whoa, money just drops out of the sky. Well, mum and dad have everything now. Everything that I ever wanted, they have.

All my eldest siblings made all the mistakes. Wow, I was just born. So I just get a free run. I was just born in a house with a pool. This is awesome. That's so good. Wait, I thought everyone grew up with Sky TV. Exactly right.

All right, use that information how you wish. It's ZM's Brinklin podcast. Let's get some tea on Taylor's Wedding. The Tea, live from L.A. with Dean McCarthy. There's speculation, Dean, and this is coming from CNN, so I feel like it's somewhat credible about how much the Taylor-Swift-T-Travs-Cel wedding might cost. Yeah, we're looking anywhere between $10 and $20 million.

Now, the thing is, yes, the festival, too, no, let that sink in. Let that thing in. Because, you know, when you think of that, though, it adds up so quickly. Like, first of all, there's a thousand guests. So how much, like, waiting, what, $100 a bit of a head? Or maybe $200 a head. What's that? A thousand times $200?

Yeah, because, I mean, they're not getting the buffet-style wedding, are they? They're going full sit-down meal. I don't think it's chicken key as It's not a cash bar at the Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey wedding No And then you've got to remember as well They also often these celebrities will fly in And accommodate a lot of their guests

So they'll put them on first class No No I'm pretty sure that's what Jeff Bezos did But I mean he's a multi-billionaire Taylor's not paying to have her friends come to the wedding Is she deemed? That's outrageous I wish you would be

For sure not all of the guests but definitely her close friends, absolutely 1,000%. She would be flying them in, hotels. She'd book a hotel, have them all in there. My friend's wedding that I was the, like, what do you? I can't remember that I married them. Celebrant. Their wedding was almost 500 grand because they flew in two performers from Greece

and all their dances. It was almost 500 grand and they, yeah, like it just had... You went to a $500,000 wedding, Dean? Yeah, it was a celebrant. Jeez. God, you have friends in high places, don't you do? Absolutely, yeah, yeah. I read a room.

Like, they paid for all my stuff and all my hotels, so, like, they did that for most of the guests. Yeah, like, at eyes up. That's incredible. I read a rumor that Taylor and Travis had hired out, like, a whole hotel where all of the guests are saying. Maybe even multiple hotels where they're all staying. Yeah, that's the way to do it, right, Dean. Yeah, and for security as well, that's the best way to control it.

Absolutely. Right. I would definitely believe that. Wow. And that would cost a bit. Yeah, I bet she didn't hire the Jet Park Airport Hotel either. Oh, hey, they've redone that since COVID. That's the tea with Dean McCarthy, our Hollywood Corrace, London.

Unnecessary drive-by on the Jet Park. Yeah, geez. Poor Jet Park. Play ZM's Brian Clint on Inser, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM.
