Hey everybody, welcome to the first Dolphin Free podcast since January 2021.
A little bit of sadness out there, but you know, good things, I mean change is good.
Can bring new opportunity, you know.
Speaking of opportunities, you've received one.
I said to you just before off air, I get more emails about brands wanting to collab with
me, sexual products, than any other type of email.
It floods my inbox, so to speak.
That's the tagline for the product.
Yeah, right.
It'll flood your inbox.
It'll flood your inbox.
And yet, I have perused your Instagram and I haven't seen a single sex toy ad.
I haven't gone down that avenue yet.
Or up it.
Or up it.
This might be too much information.
I don't really have or own or use any.
So I feel like it would be peddling something that I haven't used.
So as a responsible influencer, you're right.
You need to trial the product.
So you can reply to them and say, look,
I need to be able to stand behind this product, so to speak.
So to speak.
So send it to me and I'll give it a trial.
To you. You want it. No, no, no. I'm speaking on your behalf.
What do you want? A butt plug? Yep.
Two. Okay. Two butt plugs. For both
my buttholes.
His and hers. His and hers.
A double-ended. Double-ender.
So you could ask for them to be sent to you
to trial. But then
if you don't like it. What if I don't like it? What if I'm like
this doesn't work for me? Send it back.
Oh, you can't.
You can't.
Send it back.
It's not a product you can send back.
No, it's not.
So they'd have to be willing to accept that.
Do you actually want to do stuff for them?
Look, this is what I'm saying in a stage.
It's not something that I really have a lot of or use,
but I mean it depends how much money they're offering.
How much money they're offering. Oh, yeah.
How much money are they offering?
I don't think they actually have ever – it just kind of says –
oh, this one says based on how many sales I bring in.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You know what that'll be?
And I'm kind of like, is this –
Affiliate code.
Yeah.
Nah. Oh yeah Oh You know what that'll be And I'm kind of like Affiliate code Yeah Nah Use Brie69
For your discount
On the
Nah
Screaming weasel
Or whatever it's called
Screaming weasel
I reckon it's a no
You should say
Reply back and say
But that's just one of them
There's like heaps of them
You say I won't do it for that
I will do it for a number
Which includes a lot of zeros
Or as you guys say
I should just say
A lot of big O's A big say, a lot of big O's.
A big O's, a lot of big O's, and we can talk.
Give me the big O's.
So this is a classic negotiating tool you might like to employ.
You go back with a stupid number.
Imagine if they say yes.
That you don't think they'll say yes to.
But if they did say yes to it, you'd go, oh, that's a no-brainer.
$10,000.
Totally.
$10,000.
Tell them you'll do it For $10,000
Get my rocks off
Sign me up
And then
Because you don't want to do it
So technically
They're paying me
Yeah
For my orgasms
Oh my god
You're like
Pretty woman
You called me pretty
Thanks
Appreciate that
You're like
No no
I'm not gonna
What would be
No no
Don't I don't know the name Of any porn stars Here's a question For the group Except for Wiz Khalifa's sister No, no, I'm not going to. What would be? No, no.
I don't know the name of any porn stars.
Here's a question for the group.
Is it for Wiz Khalifa's sister?
Is she a porn star?
Is she?
He's being stupid.
Wiz.
No, it's the Khalifa.
Wiz Khalifa.
That's an I-K-N-K-N.
Jokeoke that one
If you know you know
No if
Y-K-Y-K
Oh this is actually awful to watch like all of this
I don't know I thought you were making a Kweef joke
Wes Kwefa
That actually would have been funnier than the joke Clint made
No the joke was
No the joke was good It's the aftermath that's not good.
Damn it! That was the wrong song!
Go black and yellow.
I don't know any porn stars, except for Wiz Khalifa's sister.
I really want to get the joke.
Can you tell me off the mic?
I can tell you on the mic.
Okay, tell me.
There's a porn star called Mia Khalifa.
Right, and Clint's trying to dance around the fact that he knows,
but it's not actually Wiz Khalifa's sister.
It's actually just a porn star that Clint knows,
but he's trying to say that he doesn't know porn stars.
Got it But I don't know who she is
Big tits
You gotta admit
That song hits
Every time
That actually brings emotions
I watched this thing With Wiz Khalifa
The other day
And it was like
Following him around
And what he does
In a day
What does he do
Not much
Smokes a lot of weed
Whenever they make
One of these shows
They try and paint
The person as like
A mogul
They're like
Wiz has to head
Into his production company
To check out
What's going on
And his production company
Just makes weed papers
They're like Why are you here We've never seen you At this office to check out what's going on. Yeah. And his production company just makes weed papers.
They're like, why are you here?
We've never seen you at this office.
No disrespect to Wiz Khalifa, but, you know,
that's what I imagine it's like.
So what is Wiz Khalifa up to?
Not much.
Not much.
Like I said, he literally, all I can remember from the episode is him smoking the biggest joint that I've ever seen in my life.
Does he have a girl?
I don't really feel like.
He was with Amber Rose for ages.
Oh, yes.
That was actually my question.
He had a kid with Amber Rose.
Is Amber Rose the adult entertainer or did I?
I think she was a stripper.
Did Amber Rose ever date Rob Kardashian?
No, she dated Kanye.
She had Kanye and it was.
Oh, she might have dated Rob
Black China
Tiger
Oh yeah they all cross over
Black China dated Rob Kardashian
They had a baby together hey
Oh Wiz was married to him
Did he have a baby with Black
Oh that's right
Yeah
Why you texting bitches
Dream
That was the baby's
That's the baby's name
Dream
That's a nice name
But then there's all those weird connections
Because Kylie dated Tigerired the Amber Rose.
Can we get business back on track, please?
Are you going to do an ad for the horny weasel or not?
Look, I feel like...
We've got a lot of shareholders who are waiting to know if you're going to do the product.
And if you are, will the photos be nude?
I feel like...
What?
If they let me design something You know where I've got input
You said you don't even use them
That's a great point
I wouldn't know shit
Make this bit long
Actually
It wouldn't be a good product
Last year the Australian
Well influencer and media personality
Abby Chatfield
She brought out her own right
I know
Because she uses them
And uses them often
So it makes sense for her
You should do that.
And she's got like a sex podcast.
Yeah.
Exactly.
It makes like a lot of sense.
I'm hearing you.
Ben, can we get Brie a sex podcast, please, so we can seal this deal?
I'm coming in.
That's what we could call it.
That's it.
Yeah.
Brie coming in hot.
I don't know about that.
I don't think people want to hear that chat from me.
Side note.
Yeah.
I've just had a bit of a brainwave.
I'm still team I want a sound effect at the end of the podcast,
but just not the dolphin.
Well, howdy, Pilgrim.
Yes.
Do you reckon that's how we end the podcast?
No.
Imagine if you end the podcast on a high,
coming in hot to hear the whole podcast.
I'm coming in.
Oh, it needs to go a bit longer.
But like it faded over the intro.
And it's just like, sup guys, it's Brinkley.
What about, what about?
I'm coming in.
Well, howdy, pilgrim.
We're going back down the gimmicky radio again, aren't we?
Okay, one more, one more, one more.
I'm coming in.
Well, howdy, pilgrims.
Guys.
Can we wrap this up?
Because I've got an indoor netball game to go to.
Oh, sorry.
In other news, Brie's going to be injured during the show tomorrow.
I have the worst ankles in the world.
Why are you playing?
Because Megan asked me to go play a fill-in for her indoor netball team.
When was the last time you did?
About 15 years ago.
You're going to – yeah.
I reckon you're going to be sweet.
Mate, I am a built and born athlete.
Do they have substitutes?
No, I think we're it.
You got this, Brie.
Good luck.
I'll see you in full form tomorrow.
And then I said to Clint, put me in WD.
And Clint's like, they don't have that position.
You've got to relearn the rules.
There's a whole new set of rules for indoor netball? I said to Clint, put me in WD, and Clint's like, they don't have that position. You've got to relearn the rules. Learn defense.
There's a whole new set of rules for indoor netball.
WD, coincidentally, is the name of the sex toy they want you to promote.
Enjoy the podcast, everybody.
Bye, guys.
Well, howdy, pilgrim.
I'm coming in.
What time is it?
Three, two, one.
It is Bree and Clint.
G'day, everybody, and welcome to the show. It's Bree and Clint. G'day everybody and welcome to the show.
It's Bree and Clint.
G'day mate.
I just thought I'd share with everyone, not that everyone cares,
but I was up about 10 to 15 times last night tending to my dog who would not stop crying.
What's the dog's problem?
I don't know because we've had one of our good mates, Dan, staying with us for the last five weeks, giving
my partner some help while I've been away.
Yeah.
And he left last night to go stay at his new place.
And I feel like it's because she missed him.
Wow.
And it made me feel like a bad mum.
Haven't you been looking after his dog?
Yeah, his dog's still at our place too.
So his dog's at your place?
Yeah, and his dog was looking at my dog going, shut the hell up.
Wait, so he left, but he didn't take his dog with him?
No, he couldn't because the new place he was going to has cats.
Well, tell him to take your dog.
Tell him to take your dog.
It sounds like your dog's got the issue.
Sounds like my dog loves him way more than me.
Dog swapping situation.
I know.
Anyway.
Dog keys in the bowl at the door.
I feel like I've got the tiniest taste of what your life has been like for the last two and a half years.
Oh, no.
My kids sleep through the night, mate.
Just me then.
Okay, good.
Today on the show, two shots at the secret sound.
What is it?
Just tell me.
What is it?
Okay, what is it?
If you can answer it, you're going to have $50,000.
When do we do the big one?
The $100,000?
Yeah.
Tomorrow. Oh, is it Thursdays?? The $100,000? Tomorrow.
Oh, is it Thursdays?
Yeah.
We double it on Thursdays.
Oh, yeah.
To $100,000.
That's like going way big.
You've got to go big or go home.
On $100,000 Thursdays.
Some could say.
We double it.
It's doubling it.
It is.
You take the 50K and then you times it by 2, which
equals doubling it into 100.
Unless you get it wrong, in which case you get nothing.
Today on the show as well,
Google Down is back, but we're
going to kick everything off with Tradie vs Lady.

She's 35 and she's a scuba instructor.
Welcome to the show, Carleen.
Hi, Carleen.
Hi.
That's a very, very cool job.
How did you get into that?
I just studied it at university and then it lifted it.
You can study scuba diving at university?
Well, I cross-credited it from my diploma and then got a Bachelor of Science.
Wow.
Interesting.
I thought you were going to say, went on holiday to Rarotonga and thought I'd just go diving in the pool.
I'll give that a burn.
Some people do that.
They do the diving courses.
But you're qualified not to minimise your degree.
I'm sorry.
Let's meet your contestant, your opposition today.
He's a tradie from Oxford in the South Island.
He's 30 and he's a stock manager on a cattle farm.
Welcome to the show, John.
G'day, John.
How are you?
What kind of cattle
are you running, mate?
Herefords, Angus,
Friesian, Jersey, Murray
Grey. Ever thought about the
Speckled Parks?
Oh, they're hideous. We've got a couple here.
I'll let my dad
know that's the only cattle he's running.
Okay, John, your buzzer is tradie. Carlene,
yours is lady. First three correct answers
get 50 bucks cash from KFC.
Good luck. Here we go, guys. Question number one.
Kim Kardashian has apologised for
telling women to get off their arse
and work. Name three of
her siblings. Lady.
Carleen.
Chloe, Kendall,
Courtney. She's got it. I would have
loved to hear John have a go at that. He was so close. I feel like he would have got it. I would have loved to hear John have a go at that.
He was so close.
I feel like he would have got it.
Would you have got it, John,
the 30-year-old stock manager on the kettle farm?
I would have got Kendall and Courtney, maybe.
Yeah, right.
I reckon you would have done all right, John.
I have faith.
They're bloody everywhere.
It's hard to escape them.
All right, one to the ladies.
Question number two.
Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters was the drummer
for what iconic grunge 90s band?
Freddie.
Yes, John.
Nirvana.
Well done.
Absolutely he was.
Nice work, John.
You're on the board.
One apiece.
Question number three.
George Foreman grills are a household name, but what sport was George Foreman originally...
Freddie.
Freddie.
Yes, John.
Yes, John.
Boxing. Of course it was boxing. That's... Brady. Brady. Yes, John. Boxing.
Of course it was boxing.
That's why he wants to knock out the facts.
That's right.
Can you imagine if they had been like,
now, do you want to go with the grill
or do you want to go with this really cool, like, cutter thing?
I feel like the air fryer has killed the George Foreman grill.
I lived on my George Foreman grill.
Can the air fryer do a cheese melt sandwich?
Yes, it can.
Oh, well, yeah, it's killed it.
All right, two to the tradies, one to the ladies.
Question number four.

Good to brush up on those Kardashian facts.
You've come through with the goods.
Oh, beautiful.
Hey, have a great day on the cattle farm in Oxford, John,
and thanks for playing Tradiverse Lady.
Thank you, guys.
Take care.
Do you remember the first time You told your wife
I love you
Yeah I do actually
Was it awkward
Who said it first
Actually don't answer that
I already know
Who
It was you
Yeah definitely me
I already knew the answer
I'm the keen-o-bean
I'm in the relationship
You're like
I love you
I was like four months in
And she was like
Whoa keen
Not really Not really Not really, not really, not really.
Was it awkward or was it lovely?
I thought it was lovely.
Sometimes it can be a bit awkward.
It was reciprocated, to put it that way.
Okay, good.
Well, that's what you want.
I've got a story for you where I feel like this is a very awkward first I love you.
It's about a woman who she had a really good guy mate
and she was dating this other guy at the time. So her and this other guy just were really
good friends and they met in high school. Anyway, they had never had any sort of romantic
connection or what she thought anyway. They were just really good mates. So much so that
he ended up being her best man at her wedding.
Wow.
Okay, cool.
So fast forward, she's getting married.
He's the best man, this guy named Bryant.
And he gets up to do his best man speech.
And take a listen.
This is her explaining what happened when her best friend, Bryant,
got up at her wedding to do the best man speech.
The best man speech comes around, French drunk,
and it goes along the lines of,
I loved you since the moment I saw you.
There's no one like you.
That night, Bryant said to me during our last dance,
if I'm the best man, then why didn't you ever give me a chance?
I would have always taken care of you.
I was like, what?
Well, one day we kissed.
We became more than friends.
And then dating became married.
And then married became 10 years with four boys.
She missed an important step in there.
Yeah, there's an important step where she...
She had to get divorced.
A year after she got married, she got divorced,
and then Bryant was there, her prince charming.
That was really a highlights reel, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Bryant's got a weird line of questioning where he goes,
if I'm the best man, why didn't you ever give me a chance?
I didn't give my best man a chance.
Maybe you should have.
At marrying me.
What was his name?
Adam.
Adam sounds like a top guy.
I know, he's marriage material.
Is he married now?
But that's not the deal.
You don't go, okay, if you want to be my best man,
you have to tell me you definitely don't want to marry me first.
That's not how it works.
Is he married now?
No, he's not.
Oh, there's still time.
Still time.
He wishes. He wishes. Oh's still time. He wishes.
He wishes.
Oh, you wish.
He wishes.
You wish.
If I know Adam.
I'm a catch.
Good looking bloke.
He is.
Smart.
No, we'd make a hot couple.
We'd make a hot couple.
You would.
Anyway.
Shout out to my beautiful wife if she's listening.
Shout out to Adam if you're listening.
Hello.
I thought we could take calls this afternoon on 0800DIALZM
about awkward first I love you stories
because it doesn't always go to plan.
No.
And definitely an awkward one is when it's not reciprocated, isn't it?
When you're not expecting an I love you can be quite awkward.
Maybe it was in a real weird moment.
Maybe it was like at the first time you met someone's family
and it was in front of everyone.
Maybe it was at Nan's funeral.
Maybe it was on like a theme park ride.
Who knows?
If you want to share your awkward first I love you's with us this afternoon,
you can call us now on 0800 dials at M.
You can text us on 9696 as well.
And by the way,
we love you.
Mate.
Huh?
I love you.
Oh, awkward.
See?
If it doesn't come back
to you quickly,
it's awkward.
It's real awkward, eh?
Yeah, yeah.
If I love you
is not met with
I love you too
or even
oh, I love you too.
I love you too. That's fine. love you too. I love you too.
That's fine.
If it's met with oh or um.
You know what else is awkward?
Or um.
If someone goes I love you and you go oh, love you.
Oh, love you.
Love you.
Love you.
I love you.
I love you.
That's not the same.
Yeah.
It's not the same.
I love spending time with you.
I love. Oh my God. I love. So you go I love you and they go oh, I love you. That's not the same. Yeah. It's not the same. I love spending time with you. I love.
Oh, my God.
I love.
So you go, I love you.
And they go, oh, I love us.
I love us.
Not the same.
Non-commercial way.
People know what we're talking about if you've been through it.
We're looking for awkward first I love you's because a woman told a story about how her
now husband, who was her best friend originally and her best man at her first wedding,
got up during the best man speech, and he was a bit tipsy,
and confessed his love for her for the first time.
Which is so cringetastic.
And so disrespectful to the other groom.
But, I mean, ultimately, they're married with kids.
Power move.
Very big power move.
Why didn't he do it during the, if anybody objects to these two people being married,
awkward if the best man says it, eh?
Why is that part in weddings, by the way?
Why is that there?
You legally don't have to have it in there.
But you know what it is?
It's good drama.
Is that good drama?
It's good drama.
It's good drama. Is that good drama? It's good drama. It's called drama.
It also allows for your crack-up uncle to just stand up.
Yeah, I've got something to say.
Yeah, or he just goes to stand up and he goes,
oh, just adjusting myself.
I'm all good.
Sorry, just adjusting myself.
That's so off.
We've asked you for your awkward I love you's.
What about the one who had it said during indoor gardening?
Oh, yeah.
Someone said, during indoor gardening,
I said I love you and then started crying.
We're still together, though,
so it must not have been that awkward.
Sounds pretty awkward.
Anytime someone starts crying, I feel like it's a bit awkward.
And I get it.
You're overwhelmed.
During that.
During that.
That's what I mean.
Anybody, someone starts crying.
Yeah, even if you didn't say I love you
Even you know
During that moment
I'd be like
They're like
These are happy tears
It's just so good
It's the best I ever had
Me and my ex
Broke up
He broke up with me
Because he said he wasn't ready
For a serious relationship
And then half an hour later
He said I love you for the first time
Oh no
He just broke up with you No He just broke up with you.
He just broke up with you.
He doesn't know what he wants.
He's scared of commitment.
Don't say it back in that situation even if you do.
I wonder if they said it back.
No you don't get to hear it back in that situation.
You have to wait.
There's a few that are too awkward to read out too.
Just know if you've had an awkward
I love you moment you're not alone.
Definitely not alone.
But pick your moment. Like it's definitely better to pick your moment. It would have been
better if this guy didn't do it during the best man speech,
right? Well, I think, yeah. I mean
any other time, you know.
That's awkward for everybody. Oh God.
Brian Clint. God, Oscars,
Oscars, schmoshkas, bloody
Oscars, right?
That's all we're hearing about. And they night of glamour and a bunch of slaps.
They thought no one would care about the Oscars.
Look at us now.
And then a slap.
The whole world's talking about it for three days now.
Ricky Gervais has responded to a tweet from someone
who said they wished that he was hosting the Oscars.
He is a great host, but give someone else a turn.
Ricky replied, and he said this.
If I was the host, I'd start with,
hello, I hope this show helps cheer up
the ordinary people watching at home.
If you're unemployed, for example,
take some comfort in the fact that even if you had a job,
your salary probably wouldn't be as much
as the goody bag all the actors have just been given.
Whoa! Tell us
what you really think, Ricky. No, I love it.
I love him.
Do you want to know what was in those goodie bags?
Of course I want to know. What are the stars
getting? What are the freebies
that the stars are getting? What are the rich
people getting for free? If you were
lucky enough to be an
actor attending the Oscars,
the goodie bag you received was...
So, wait, is this everyone?
It says all of the actors, yeah.
I thought it was just the winners.
Surely it was, like, the elite.
Surely it was just the people who were nominated, let's say.
Because I've seen...
Because Ashley Simpson was there.
Are they giving one of these to Ashley Simpson?
Oh, hey, Ashley Simpson deserves a bit of something giving one of these to Ashley Simpson? Oh, hey!
Ashley Simpson deserves a bit of
something-something. If anyone needs it, it's her.
Well, these goodie bags existed. Some people got
these. There were goodie bags there
valued at around $200,000.
$200,000
$200,000 party bag.
Inside a three-night stay
in a castle in Scotland.
A $15,000 holiday in California.
My God.
$10,000 worth of Botox.
That's good, actually, if you're in Hollywood.
Oh, see, now I'm jealous.
A $12,000 liposuction procedure.
Oh, no, I don't want that.
From Dr. Thomas Hsu.
His clinic is called Celebrity Arms.
So I think it's specifically for your arms.
Liposuction to get rid of your tuck shot
wings.
$25,000
worth of home renovations.
What a weird
thing to get. How do they fit it all
in the bag?
A life coaching session
worth $1,200.
That's a pretty...
Everyone starts giving
their voucher for that
to Will Smith.
They're like,
bro, you need this
more than me.
Take it, man.
Let's give him
all the hours, guys.
Load him up.
Dude's got some stuff
to work through.
And the nominees
were also given
a plot of land
in Scotland
so they can officially declare themselves
Lords and Ladies of Glencoe.
I've got that.
Have you?
Yeah, I've got a plaque at home.
Kim Crossman put through the paperwork
and I'm actually technically a Dame Lady?
Lady, Dame.
Well, good that you know.
Dame Lady.
Good that you know the difference.
I'm a damn lady.
And they also got some popcorn.
Popcorn?
Wait.
So there was just popcorn randomly in there.
Some of these women have not eaten for like 48 hours, Brie,
to get into those dresses.
Mate, 48 hours?
Yeah.
You'll leave me in fairyland if you think it was only 48 hours.
Well, there you go.
That's what you're in for if you make it to the Illuminati of rich people.
Bree and Clint.
ZDM, Bree and Clint.
That's Lato and Big Energy.
She's saying Anastasia was just saying that Mariah Carey's done a version of Big Energy
because it's her song originally.
Yeah.
Fantasy?
She's done, but Anastasia said it's not good.
Is it not good? Big fantasy. Is it not good, Anastasia?
What would you rate it out of
ten? No, if, there's always
a small chance that Mariah's listening, so
I'm just gonna
I'm just gonna reserve. Are you scared
of Mariah Carey, Anastasia? Are you scared
of Mariah Carey? Should you? I think you should be.
Have you got it there, Ben? Have you got the Mariah Carey?
Yeah, I just, I just faded it down because I wasn't sure if it was going to be clean oh okay but we can
let's take the rest i'll take the rest yeah mariah is pretty clean Big, big energy. It ain't too many of them. Where's Mariah Carey?
She's kind of in the back.
Listen.
I don't know.
Is this meant to be her?
Oh, she gets a verse in there.
Well, we'll find her and we'll get it out there.
I wanted to talk about low effort dates this afternoon.
Are you trying to normalise them?
I'm trying to lower the bar.
To help yourself out.
We're all men out there.
I'm trying to. You're like, what?
I got fish and the chips
and I brought it home to you and
I've paid for Netflix this month.
You joke. I think that sounds like a pretty
good date. I'd be keen. Right?
There's a guy who has
got a Bumble, Tinder match, whatever it is
with another guy and
the guys have managed to go,
yeah, let's go on a date. He suggested a date.
I'm going to play the audio of him going through the screenshots of the messages.
Okay.
Because he's offended by how little effort the other guy has put into the date.
The one who asked the other one out.
Yeah.
So if you're asking someone out, in my opinion,
you're the person that needs to be putting effort in for that particular date.
You set the tone on that date.
Yeah.
You're in charge.
So have a listen to this.
I matched with this guy on a dating app.
He asked me out on a date and I said,
sure, where are we going?
He then suggests a pub,
which is in the area that he lives.
So I said, I think I'm going to pass,
but thanks, Luke.
Feels like you've just picked an area
that is convenient for you.
And when a guy expects the other
to do all of the travelling
just to go to a pub,
of which there are hundreds of,
it reads as either inconsiderate or low effort,
not that into it.
No hard feelings and I hope you find what you're looking for.
He tries to gaslight me.
He says, you are mental.
You have no idea.
I hope you find some help.
You are a waste of time.
Please delete my number.
Now at this point I was feeling a little bit petty
so I sent him back a screenshot of our conversation
and I said, it was never saved.
So they obviously live on different sides of London,
and the guy suggested a pub,
which would be quite the commute for the other guy.
That would be convenient for the other one.
His theory was also that the guy was just looking to get a quick leg over.
Oh, I think he was right.
And the pub was near his house,
and then the other guy would have to...
Bless you, child.
Excuse me.
Give me a rat test.
Then he'd do the quick, you know, indoor gardening,
and then the other guy would have to do the long commute home.
Yeah, not cool.
Not considering.
Not cool.
It reminded me of the time that my friend Paul took a girl on a date,
and he took her to Denny's on his birthday.
Oh, no.
Paul, what are you up to, mate?
First of all, Denny's is a first date.
I mean, some people enjoy it that much that it could be a first date.
But the thing about Denny's is...
Yeah, if you're 10...
Or drunk, he dines free on his birthday.
Oh, Paul, that's not good.
So he has paid for his date's dinner, but...
Yeah, because he was getting his for free.
What about producer Ben brought up a really interesting story off air
where we have a mutual friend and he was going on a first date
and all of a sudden, for some reason,
the first date was actually them coming to watch me
and Ben play indoor soccer.
It was so strange, wasn't it, Ben?
And we had to pick them up because my friend didn't have a car.
Well, the thing is we didn't know he was bringing a date,
so I was coming around to get Bree, and then Alan Begale jumped in.
He's like, oh, do you mind if he comes on?
It's just a first date.
And we were like, right.
Wait, so you've never met before.
Who wants to go to a stinky
indoor soccer venue
to watch people you don't know
play indoor soccer as a date?
Let's just say
there wasn't a second date.
Far out.
It was awkward.
That is,
but that fits the brief.
I'm talking about low effort dates here
and that is a low effort date.
Remember that time,
I've told you
and I think on this show
before that time
I was going on
a first date
with a guy
and he asked
if I could pick him up.
That's right.
And he lived in Redland Bay
when I lived in Brisbane
so it was a 45 minute drive.
But the date was in Brisbane.
Yeah.
So you had to drive
45 minutes to him
to get him up
drive back into Brisbane
for the date
45 minutes and then drop him home after the date 45 minutes and him, pick him up, drive back into Brisbane for the date, 45 minutes,
and then drop him home after the date,
45 minutes,
and then drive yourself home again,
45 minutes.
You know,
I remember I suggested to him,
because he's this,
he wanted to go to his favourite restaurant,
or whatever it was.
And I said,
hey,
maybe because you live 45 minutes away,
we could just go somewhere more local.
Or in the middle.
Yeah,
or in the middle.
And I remember him saying, oh, but I
really feel like this particular...
And I was like, nah. Getting over them, right?
Not cool, man. Let's get him in, because
I'm sure there are lots of stories out
there of low effort dates. People who
just didn't go.
Not even the extra mile. They didn't go any miles
when they took you on a date. They literally did not try.
How basic was the date? And were you
offended? Oh, 800 dials it in.
You can text your low effort date story into 9696.
Maybe it ended in love.
You never know.
Bree and Clint.
Low effort dates.
The dates you've been on with the other person
clearly put in no effort whatsoever.
And man, it is an epidemic, right?
I'm just reading some of these texts.
They're so good.
And they're pouring in as well yeah
what about the one which reminded me of something that i've done in the past someone said
this is a hundred percent me uh i took my now fiance to the bakehouse i got myself a pie and a
v but i didn't get her anything she always reminds me of how slack i was you took her to the bakehouse
and just got yourself a feed.
How could you not buy her a pie and a V as well?
That's not a date.
That's just you going to the bake...
Farrah.
Okay, let's get Kylie on.
Kia ora, Kylie.
Hi, Kylie.
Hello.
Hello.
So your low-effort date happened a few dates in, is that right?
Yep, a few dates in, but ended with...
I mean, we've got a mortgage and children now, so...
Right, okay.
Yep, but he thought it would be a cool idea
to take me to Dona Island, Wangamata by a kayak, tandem, you know.
Both of us sharing a kayak.
And I thought that's the coolest date ever.
So obviously I put both my hands up.
I'm keen on going.
He walked up with a fishing rod.
And I was like oh okay so
is that what we're doing
in amongst the day and I was like
that'd be cool, I don't mind
but a fishing rod, whatever
and we never even went to John
Good Island, we found
a spot on these rocks
and he made me get out
last and because I was at the back I ended up doing the splits in the water
and cut all my legs up.
No!
He just wanted to go fishing, and he thought he'd kill two birds with one stone.
Yeah, and he just paddled me all the way.
Yeah, well, you stayed with this man, though, Kylie.
I shot that.
Yeah, he clearly did something right because you've got kids in the mortgage.
What's going to impress her?
I reckon take her fishing. I'll show her I'm a hunter-gatherer. What's going to impress her? I reckon take a fish and...
I'll show her my hunter-gatherer.
Catherine's here.
G'day, Catherine.
Hi, Catherine.
Hi, hi.
How are you going?
What was your low-effort date?
So we met on Tinder and we talked maybe like...
Oh, did we lose you, Catherine?
Oh, no.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Sorry, my phone.
We got you back.
Okay, you met on Tinder.
Sorry, my phone mutes.
Okay, we got you.
Yeah, we met on Tinder.
We talked for like two days.
And then he was like, oh, you want to go shopping with me this weekend?
I was like, yeah, sure, but I'm broke.
And so we ended up just going shopping for him.
And I just sat there while he tried on clothes.
That is the most awkward first date.
Yeah, we got Maccas and he bought me a frozen coke
but we're together two years later
Again these New Zealand women
need to raise their standards
Catherine
I'm an Aussie
That sounded pretty good to me actually
Catherine tell me if this would
fly for you someone has texted in and said
he took me for a coffee date
and then we spent the afternoon
watching him install new speakers in his car.
No.
No.
Sounds fun, I'm sure.
It just reminded me,
and this is a true story,
I took someone on a date one time
to go curtain shopping.
Curtain shopping?
Yeah.
Is that a euphemism?
No.
I needed new curtains.
And so I was like, do you want to come?
And it was like a first date The person was like, well do they match the drapes?
And you're like, no, literally I need some curtains
That's why you're coming, so we can organise it
Oh, Catherine, well there you go, true love
Yeah, well done
He could have bought you something, you know
I like the idea of him walking out of the fitting room each time and like,
babe, does this look skucks?
Does my butt look big in this?
Does this look skucks?
Bree and Clint.
It's time for Google Down.
Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
What the hell?
I think Google's actually...
What's that?
I was just demonstrating that I was going to pants clunt.
Oh.
You think you're going to down-trail me today, do you?
You're going to dack him.
Yeah, might do it with the help of Hannah.
G'day, Hannah.
Who's playing today?
Hi.
Mate, have you heard this before and how crazy it gets?
Crazy.
Yep, I'm ready.
Okay, perfect, Hannah.
Question for the Kiwis in the room.
Do you guys say you're going to dack someone?
No, down trowel.
Oh.
Does dacks mean where you pull their pants down?
Yeah.
Dacking someone.
Yeah, no, down trowel.
Interesting.
There we go.
Then you might go with a sack tap after the down trowel as well.
You really want to add insult to injury.
I don't know what that means.
What was the girl version of that called again, Anastasia?
Oh, a sack tap.
I don't know.
What was it?
A flap whack.
Anyway, moving on.
No one wants a flap whack.
No, you don't want that.
I don't know what either of those are.
We'll tell you after.
Okay, thanks.
Not to be confused with a flap jack.
Yeah, no.
A delicious breakfast. Oh, I love those pancakes. We'll tell you after. Okay, thanks. Time to be confused with a flapjack. Yeah. A delicious breakfast.
Oh, I love those pancakes.
That's good.
Anyway, this is about Googling things to find out who's the greatest Googler.
That's right.
I will read out the question.
I'm looking for the most common answer that comes up for that exact question on Google.
Yell it out when you think you know.
If it's wrong, you're out of that question.
First to three will take home the win.
Good luck, Hannah.
Here we go.
All right, Hannah. Here we go. Alright, Hannah. Here we
go. Question number one. How
wide is Lake Taupo?
How wide?
33 kilometres.
That's correct, Anastasia.
Good to see you haven't lost it.

Damn, Lake Taupo, she thick.
She a thick gal.
Alright, question number two. One to An, she thick. She a thick gal. Alright, question number

Yeah, but that's the most fun part.

What are you doing?
Russia's the biggest land mass in the world. It's Mate, I'm trying to guess. What are you doing? Russia's the biggest landmass
in the world. It's the most sparsely
populated land. Yeah.
You went for the opposite of what the answer would be.
You went for nothing. He was giving it a go.
Guys, you're embarrassing me in front of Hannah.
Sorry, Hannah. You know what? And because you had to
sit through that, you get the KFC chicken dollars.
Nice work. Oh, thank you.

Look, I feel like every family has family secrets.
Yes.
Some families have really big ones.
Some families just have, you know, some mild ones.
Like when you revealed my family secret.
What was that?
That we all grew up on waterbeds.
Oh, yeah.
That is Robert's family secret.
We were meant to take that to a watery grave, that secret.
Now here I am.
I'm a waterbed guy.
You are the waterbed guy.
There's a girl by the name of Chelsea Brown.
She's 28 and she lives in New York City.
Her job, and I've never heard of this before,
but she reunites heirlooms with people.
What an amazing job.
I know.
It's very cool, eh?
I don't know how she gets them or how exactly she does it,
but that's pretty much her job.
And she talks about it on social media and shares these stories and stuff. Anyway, recently she came across a series of letters from the 1900s.
Okay.
And she believes that they're war letters.
Oh, yeah.
You know, around World War II time.
Okay.
And she was reading through these letters and she has to try and get information through them
to get them back
to the families that they belong to.
Anyway, the letters revealed an affair.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
That happened between a wife and her fiancé's best friend.
Oh, okay.
Back in the 1940s.
Back in the 1940s. Back in the 1940s.
Right, yeah.
Right?
So there's a series of letters and I don't know the exact details.
I'm pretty sure it's between the wife and the best friend.
Yeah.
And it talks about intimate details when the affair happened
and apparently it was during their engagement
and probably early into the first couple of years of their marriage.
She's got the original DMs.
Yeah, literally.
Yeah.
Literally.
Anyway, she is really torn because she doesn't know whether she wants to give these letters back to the family.
Because she doesn't know if they know about it.
And she's like, she loves to, you know.
Wait, are the people who had the affair, are they no longer living?
Are they dead?
I don't know.
And I don't think she knows.
Because you can slide them to grandma and just go, oh, girl.
You're not going to be like, I know what you've been up to, grandma.
You want to talk about this, grandma?
But, yeah, imagine if they're not still here.
And then the whole affair, it could cause, you know.
Oh, my God, I would love to get that information about my grandparents.
You're like, damn, Grandma.
I don't want that to have happened.
But if there is scandalous news about my ancestors,
I want to know about it.
I feel like I deserve to know about it.
Things were happening back in the day.
They just didn't get caught as often.
Totally.
There was no social media.
Yeah.
But she doesn't know whether to give these letters
back to the family
because she doesn't want
to cause any family drama.
But I mean,
pretty scandalous
having an affair
with the fiancé's best friend.
And then putting it
in writing too.
That's the other bit.
Yeah, I know.
Put it down in writing.
It's there in black and white.
And clearly you've taken
your secret to the grave
if she's dead.
I assume she's dead.
But yeah.
Saucy hay.
So what's your family secret?
Do we have a family secret?
I mean, I wouldn't say it on here if we did.
That was actually a trap, what I was doing there.
I thought maybe you were comfortable enough just to say it.
Yeah, I might just, I'll have a think about it.
My mum would probably come up with something.
She always thinks that our family has all these big secrets.
Okay, well, if Bree's mum is listening,
text us in the Thomas L Family Secret that you want to share.
But if you're willing to share your family's secret this afternoon,
we'd love to hear that too.
This feels like an anonymous segment.
Yeah, you can remain anonymous.
We're looking for the big family secrets that you found out.
Maybe it doesn't need to be anonymous.
Maybe you found out the family secret and now everybody knows. And it's all good now. It's all good now. And it was actually a good thing that everyone found out. Maybe it doesn't need to be anonymous. Maybe you found out the family secret and now everybody
knows. And it's all good now. It's all good now.
And it was actually a good thing that everyone found out.
Probably not. Yeah. But, you know,
that could be. Maybe it's not all good and you
just don't give up.
You know. Shit.
0800 dials at M or you can text
us on 9696.
What was your big family secret that you
found out? Bree and Clint. We're looking was your big family secret that you found out? Bree and Clint.
We're looking for your big family
secrets.
We are family.
Everybody has got family
secrets. Every family's got secrets.
You know. If you think your family
doesn't have secrets. That's because you don't know
about them. No one's told you the family secret.
Yeah. You know. That's the thing.
Do you want to share it with us this afternoon? We can keep you completely anonymous if you do want to you the family secret. Yeah. You know? That's the thing. Do you want to share it with us this afternoon?
We can keep you completely anonymous if you do want to share the family secret.
Maybe you need to get it out there this afternoon.
Matt has called up.
G'day, Matt.
Hi, Matt.
How you going?
Good, thanks.
Tell us, Matt, what's the big family secret you found out?
Well, my sister was 18 and she just had a baby.
And my uncle's partner sent her a letter saying congratulations
for the present.
And in the letter it stated that my father wasn't her father.
Whoa.
Who's her father?
One of my mum's friends.
She ended up having the baby, or having my sister.
And she was a few months old when my
father and mother got together.
So, why did your auntie reveal this
to your sister? Yeah, in a letter. Why didn't
your mum tell her?
She was waiting for the right time and apparently never
could find the right time.
Auntie had enough?
Yeah. Whoa!
I don't really know the whole story.
I didn't really get told the back story of it all.
Man, that would muck you up a bit, wouldn't it?
Yeah, that's full on, eh?
Anytime you find out someone is not who they think they are
and it's your father, oh, I wonder if the dad knew.
Yeah, that's a great question.
Rachel's here.
G'day, Rachel.
Hi, Rachel.
Hi.
So basically it was World War II,
and my grandma was writing letters to my granddad,
and then she was also writing letters,
and I don't know how far it went with this Canadian pilot,
and then it ended up being that he had a wife.
The pilot had a wife.
But she had a husband.
She hadn't married my granddad yet,
but she never says, like,
we didn't find out that the Canadian pilot was married until recently,
and so we never knew why she left him,
who was the lover of her life, he said, for my granddad,
but it turns out because he left her to go back to the West.
Right, so she was having a letter-based relationship
with a Canadian pilot, and then it turned out he was married,
and that's why she ended up with your granddad.
Yeah.
Whoa!
Look out.
That sounds like the plot line to Pearl Harbor.
Yeah, but I think it was more than letters, but we never, we don't really discuss that
with the grandma.
Yeah, true.
Right.
True, you got it.
Is grandma still around?
Yes, grandma is.
Oh, have the conversation.
Yeah, do it.
Go on, have the conversation before.
Maybe grandma wants to talk about it.
She's like, I wish someone would ask me the nitty gritty.
God, I wish I could get into the details of this.
Give granny a gin or something.
That's good.
Thank you, Rachel.
This is similar.
Someone said last year we found out that my pop had a secret son who was 54 years old that we never knew about.
It was just after my nana passed away, so she never knew about it.
Oh, wow.
He said there's also a possibility that he has two further kids in Canada,
but both of the women have passed away, so we can't get in contact.
What a dirty dog.
He's got kids everywhere.
He's just going around having all these secret relationships.
Last caller wants to remain anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. Hello. He's just going around having all these secret relationships. Last caller wants to remain anonymous.
Hi, Anonymous.
Hi, Anonymous.
Hello.
Hello.
What's the family secret?
So it's still a family secret,
but my brother found out that our dad isn't his dad.
How did he find out?
His dad thought him out.
His real dad?
The real dad.
No way.
So, okay, break this down. His dad thought him out and... His real dad? The real dad. No way.
So, okay, break this down.
Does your brother's... The person who thinks he's your brother's dad,
does he know he's not the real dad?
So our dad does know.
Yeah.
And my mum doesn't know that we know.
Oh, no.
So everybody knows now that it's not the real dad.
But your mum doesn't know that you know?
No. Does dad know that you
know? No.
Oh my god!
So all of you siblings are all
talking about this and you've all figured it out
but it's all still a big secret.
What are you going to do?
I'm going to leave it to my brother to have the
conversation. That's a good plan. Yeah, that is a good plan. He needs to do it when he's ready if he wants to do? I'm going to leave it to my brother to have the conversation. That's a good plan.
Yeah, that is a good plan.
He needs to do it when he's ready if he wants to do it.
Oh, my God.
This is like David Lomas investigates.
Yeah.
Isn't it?
It's like TV3's missing pieces.
He's in Aussie, so it keeps it a little easier to keep it hidden.
But, yeah, he knows because the father also showed him the conversation
between my mum and him that she was saying, like, I'm not ready to tell him to please
wait.
Wow.
And he said, I can't wait any longer.
Anonymous, how does your brother feel about it?
I think he was a little shocked, but I think he's come to terms with it, really.
But he's not ready to talk to our mum about it yet.
There you go.
It's a family secret.
They're out there everywhere.
Every family's got one.
Maybe not that scandalous.
Like, my family's got nothing like that, but, you know.
Well, how do you know?
It could be a secret.
Damn it.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.

There she is.
Alana.
Sorry, I'm here.
She's back.

Have you had a good day so far?
I've had an amazing day so far.
Had some facials and a hairdresser appointment, so really loved the moment.
Oh, what a great birthday.
How good.
Yeah, it was so good.
Someone loves you.
Okay, well, let's get you a great birthday bang and a cap it all off.
How old are you?
What year were you born?
1984.
All right, Alana.
You were 16 in the year 2000. So on this

I wanna see you out that door, baby
bye, bye, bye. Oh, bang out Alana.
Oh, it's good Alana. Oh, that's
amazing. That's so good.
What did you say?
The year 2000.
Year 2000.
Just a casual 22 years ago, Alana.
Yeah, I know.
No one can tell, though, because of all the facials you've been having.
I was going to say.
Absolutely.
Stop reminding her on her birthday.
She knows.
Did you love a bit of NSYNC?
Was more of a Backstreet Boys fan.
I was going to say.
Me too.
But you can't really beat Bye Bye Bye.
It's a great song.
It's a great infant song, for sure.
It is, for sure.
It's going to be hard to beat.
Jo's here.
Kia ora, Jo.
Kia ora, how are you guys?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Good, thank you.
Happy birthday, Alana.
Happy birthday, Alana.
That's nice of you, Jo.
That's nice, Jo.
What's your birthday?
Friday night.
It's the 23rd of April, 1975. All right, Jo. So I'm getting on a bit. I like you, Jo. What's your birthday? It's the 23rd of April, 1975.
All right, Jo.
So I'm getting on a bit.
I like you, Jo.
You call again any time.
You were 16, maybe, in 1991.
So on your 16th birthday, Jo, this was top of the charts.
I've been thinking about you.
Oh, banger.
I've been thinking about you.
I love this song. I've been thinking about you. I love this song.
I've been thinking about you.
London beats.
That's a quite cool song.
I'd forgotten about that.
Yeah, right?
Yeah, Joe.
This is a real bolt out of the blue, this one.
You don't expect this song.
Remember that one?
Banger is in sync, though, is it?
No, but that bit where he goes,
I've been so in love with you.
Got you on my mind, chica papa.
I love that song.
It's good.
It's good.
I reckon you'll remember the shot.
It's a great one, Jo.
One more for Trina.
Kia ora, Trina.
Hi, Trina.
Hello.
Hi.
Happy birthday, Alana.
Happy birthday, Alana.
I feel the love in this room, and I like it.
How was your day, Trina?
Really good.
I had a hairdressing appointment too,
so it was very nice.
What did you have done?
I had blonde foils put through.
Hide the greys.
It was all good.
Yeah, I know the feeling.
I thought you were about to say,
oh, it was a wax appointment.
Had my hair done.
The old top and tail.
The old top and tail.
Trina, what's your birthday, mate?
14th of June, 1975 as well.
Oh, same as Jo.
You were 16 also in 1991.
And Trina, here is your birthday banger.
I'm too sexy for my love.
Oh, yeah.
Too sexy.
Oh, yeah, Trina.
Oh, yeah.
That was a good song.
We got three great birthday bangers today.
God, I like them all.
Yeah.
Trina, level with us.
What would you choose?
Oh, I'm too sexy, definitely.
Yeah, okay.
Pick your own one, that's good.
I don't know if I've ever heard that one in birthday bangers.
I really like all of these songs.
I think they're all standouts today.
So I think the deciding factor for me is that it's Alana's birthday.
So I'm going to vote for Bye Bye Bye.
I really loved Alana and she's got a great
attitude. I'm going
to give my vote to Alana because
it's her birthday. Oh, you really took us
on a journey there, didn't you?
Hey Alana, happy bloody birthday
mate. You just won Birthday Banger.
Oh, that's awesome. Thanks so much guys.
No worries. Have a good birthday mate. You just won birthday banger. Oh, that's awesome. Thanks so much, guys. No worries. Have a good birthday, mate.
Thank you.
Look, I'm at my wits end, Clint.
I feel like I want
to go down that track where
some things I'd rather not know.
You want to live in ignorance as blessed life.
I feel like for some things, yeah.
Because there's too much information, there's too many things being ruined,
and I'm over it.
Give me an example of what you're talking about.
You know how there's like a bunch of stuff comes out,
they're like, this is bad for you, don't eat that,
because it turns out it's bad for you.
Did you read the research on cigarettes?
Devastating news.
Because, I mean, I feel like that's what you need to know.
Well, that's different.
I'm not talking about those ones.
But this one I feel like I didn't want to know.
Okay, what's bad for us now?
So a doctor by the name of Dan Gubler.
Oh, yep.
He's got a PhD in organic chemistry.
You sound mad at him.
I am mad at Gubler.
Dr. Gubler.
Dr. Gubler. Dr. Gubbler. Dr. Gubbler.
Dr. Gubbler.
He has warned people against using scented candles.
Nah, I'm not here for it.
I'm not here for this.
Look, look, look.
I have a lot of scented candles in my house.
So do I.
I live with a woman. So I kind of want to hear the information. I think we got some,
producer Ben grabbed some audio of Dr. Dan Gubler talking about why scented candles are bad for you.
There have been a lot of clinical studies that have come out recently showing that frequently
burning indoor candles can cause
serious health problems including inhibiting the ability of cells especially in the bladder
to grow normally when we think of pollution we think of it as an outdoor thing but indoor air
pollution caused by burning candles air fresheners and other sources is a big problem it gives off
carbon monoxide carbon dioxide sulfur dioxide benzrene, toluene, and other volatile compounds.
They're not good for the body.
So indoor candles are the new smoking.
To be fair, I have always wondered where does all the candle stuff go?
No.
Have you not wondered that?
When you burn a candle.
I don't care.
It smells lovely.
Where does the wax go?
Where does it go?
Well, eventually it burns down and disintegrates.
No, I know, but where does it go?
Into the air.
Does it stuck to the walls?
Is it smeared across the floor?
Where is it?
I mean, open a window, crack a window, and it'll just blow out the breeze.
What are they going to take away from us next?
Bubble baths?
I know why you're really upset about scented candles.
Why?
Because of the aromas that you produce.
Well, I need something.
Scented candles are essential to your daily lifestyle.
How else am I going to mask
the other smells?
Brie and Clint. If you're new to
listening to the Brie and Clint show, you might not be aware
we are the leading show for maritime
and aviation based news.
No one does more news about
the maritime or aviation news than us.
And I've got some aviation news.
And to be honest, this is actually sexy aviation news.
Sexy aviation news.
Or is it dangerous aviation news?
Okay.
Or is it scandalous aviation news?
You know what?
It's all three of these things.
A New Zealand air traffic controller who indoor gardened with a married woman while he was on duty instructing pilots
has won his license back
after it was earlier revoked following an investigation.
So they found out he was doing the rumpy-pumpy
while the planes were coming in
and they're like, you can't do this job anymore.
He's gone to court.
He's won his license back.
How did he do it?
The decision was appealed
and a judge has ruled in favor of the
man, finding that while he did
indoor garden while
on duty, it wasn't as
risky as originally believed.
I bet he got her
to write a letter. The woman?
Yeah. Really? I
hereby state that it was
100% worth it.
And it was, I give him a 10 out of 10.
And all those men in there in that room would be like,
oh, come on, guys, he's doing a good job.
Or she wrote the letter and she goes, it was over very quickly.
No one's life was at risk.
I want to say a minute and a half.
The judge in the Wellington District Court found the man had not been handcuffed,
so it was not physically preventing him from doing his job.
Oh, my God.
So, sweet as, I guess.
He wasn't handcuffed to his chair, so he could still pick the runways.
I will argue that I feel like, you know, he probably should be concentrating in that job.
100% he should be concentrating.
And then he also, you know, takes quite a lot of concentration for the other job.
True.
You know?
He's not giving 100% to either job.
No.
Is he?
And he's half-assing it.
And I feel like you're very distracted when you're indoor gardening.
I would have to probably disagree.
I can't multitask.
No.
Ever, let alone in that situation. The man acknowledged that an act, act, while handcuffed,
had occurred during the affair.
Okay.
But that act happened in a hotel room, not in the air traffic control tower.
Why did he even have to mention it then?
Now you're just boasting about it.
The good news is the next flight you take
Could be some very sexy stuff
Happening down on the ground
Think about that as your Jetstar flight comes into land
It's so interesting that both jobs
