Starting point is 00:03:59 Hi, Kaylin. What is a fun fact about you, Kaylin, that you would tell people at a party? I'm a forest schoolteacher. You're a what school teacher? Forest. A forest school teacher. There you go, that is a fun fact. Okay, your buzzer is lady.

Starting point is 00:04:54 Way off. Kalin. Lady. Do you? No. It's actually a trick question. Honey is one of the only foods that never expires. They reckon they found honey in like tombs in Egypt that was still good.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Correct. Yeah, it was still edible. Okay, here we go. No points there. Question number three. Name a main character from the Office U.S. Lady. Kaylor.

Starting point is 00:06:07 Yay, that's awesome. Thank you. And you weren't even meant to be playing. You were the emergency ringing. So how good. Ladies go to 28. Trades down 22. Dead is Franklin.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Just we did Trady versus Lady before and we said that honey never expires. But the wording of our question is what is the average shelf life? on there. We've had a text from someone who says beekeeper's daughter here. Re your honey question. You're correct that it doesn't expire but requirements by law are to have a five year best
Starting point is 00:06:38 before date on all honey that's sold in New Zealand and for export. So they have to say that it expires in five years, but it doesn't. So they have to lie. Yeah. Well, they have to put something on it, I guess. I always say this, Clint. I always say best befores
Starting point is 00:06:54 are just a suggestion. Yeah, yeah, you're always saying that. Yeah. It's one of your favorite things to say, yeah. I'm not taking it super seriously. I'm like, that's a nice suggestion. But I'm going to sniff it and eyeball it and then make my own judgment. Yeah, the sniff test.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Yeah, it always pays off. As long as it passes the sniff test, stick it in me. You're good to go. Hey, I saw this interesting story, which I related to. Because recently, obviously, I got engaged. Thank you guys. Hold the applause. And I know for a fact, and you would have been through this same feeling.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I said hold the applause, but I'll take it. Yes, thank you guys. We actually can't hold the applause. Okay. Just whenever you mention it, it just happens. It just happens. That is the engagement applause that I ask for. Thank you, Clint.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Which you've been through this as well. It's very nerve-wracking, setting up an engagement, and in the lead-up to proposing, Very on edge. Oh my God. I don't know if I've been so stressed. Yeah. When I have the knowledge that I'm about to do it and I have the ring.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Yeah. It's so stressful. And why are you stressed? Because you're worried it's not going to go perfectly. Yeah, you just want it to go well. And even if you feel like you know what the answer is going to be, you still want to nail it, you know? Did you have a part in the back of your brain where you're like she could say no?
Starting point is 00:08:18 Nah. Listen to the confidence. I saw, well, I saw this woman post this video of her engagement that got absolutely ruined by someone that they didn't even know. Okay. So here's the situation. Her name's Amanda and she posted this video. This was back in 2017, but she's reposted it. And that her and her partner took a cruise on one of the big cruise liners.
Starting point is 00:08:48 And the guy, her now husband, his name. name's Gary, he was organizing a proposal, right? And he's went to the staff there on the cruise ship and he said, right, guys, I'm organizing a proposal. This is how I want to do it. It's going to be at the dinner. I'm going to propose and then I want you guys to come out and kind of make a big hooplaar about it and sing, you know, a bit of a song and bring out this cake and, you know, that kind of thing. The only problem was is that one of the staff members went way to on the big celebration and the engagement song, and he hadn't proposed yet.
Starting point is 00:09:30 So they spoiled the surprise. So what you're about to hear is some audio where she's very confused at this point because he hasn't proposed yet, but this is what happened. All right. So we're going to sing Happy Engagement. What? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Okay. One, two, and three. Happy kids. Oh, engagement. Oh, no. First of all, not a song. No, that's happy birthday. That's happy birthday, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Disguised as an engagement song. Second of all, it's like a pregnant woman. Unless you can see the baby, you don't comment. Unless you can see the ring on the finger, you don't sing happy engagement to you. No, no. They got it very wrong. and the woman looks super confused,
Starting point is 00:10:38 but then I think she'd figured it out. She was like, oh, no, I know what's going on here. And then the guy that had organised it just goes, well, you marry me? Like, just on the back of it. Oh, no. He handled it very well. He did.
Starting point is 00:10:51 He did handle it well. Everybody had the best of intentions, look. Yeah. It wasn't anyone's fault. It just happened. I mean, it was, yeah, it was the worker's fault that went too early. But we're not going to say that to make him feel bad. No.
Starting point is 00:11:04 We do want to know, we do want to hear from people who had the engagement ruined, though, by someone else, by a situation, by a family member, by the weather. If your proposal got ruined because of something, that's what we want to hear about this afternoon. Yeah, maybe it was ruined, Clint, because the person you were proposing to said no. Oh, that would, that counts? That would ruin it, yeah. Yeah. Maybe you were doing romantic fish and chips on the beach and a seagull came down. And just as you opened the ring box, the seagull grabbed the ring with its beak and flew off with the ring.
Starting point is 00:11:39 See, that's the kind of story for after. That's the dream story. In an ideal situation, that's the story we get. ZD.M.'s brain clen. Queenie's called up. Hi, Queenie. Hi, Queenie. Hey.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Hello. What ruined the engagement, Queenie? My partner had bought my engagement ring In like two weeks before we were buying a house Okay And he had put the engagement ring on a content insurance Yes And while we were buying our house
Starting point is 00:12:15 I was in charge of putting the house under our house insurance content insurance Oh no Oh no you saw it on there? And, well, no, I was on the phone with the lady. Please, her heart. And she said, oh, I've got this ring, price for this much under your content.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Is this true? Like, do you agree with this? Yeah. And I'm like, oh, this is the free time hearing it. So you not only found out that there was a ring, you found out exactly how much that ring was worth before I had been given to you. Yeah. What did you do, Queenie?
Starting point is 00:12:52 Did you pretend not to know? and wait for him to propose, or did you just come out with it? I actually pretended that I didn't know anything about it, and wait that until he proposed. After he proposed, I told him. I think that's the kind thing to do, Queenie. That's the right thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:12 What did I want to know, Queenie, what did the lady on the phone say when you were like, this is the first I'm hearing about this ring? Did she realize what had happened? Yes, so she realized I didn't know anything about it. she was so sorry. Yeah. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:13:27 She would feel awful, but she's just doing her job. Yes, exactly. But she said to me, oh, just pretend you don't know. Please. Please, I don't want to lose my job. Thanks, Queenie. We asked what ruined the engagement. Someone said, I used to volunteer as carriage crew on a steam train group.
Starting point is 00:13:47 My now husband was planning to propose when we got a moment alone. A couple of the guys suspected he might propose, and wanted to announce it to the train when it happened. So wouldn't leave us alone at all. Hubby didn't propose for three more months. What is wrong with people? Like, it's not your thing. Leave them alone.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Why do you need to bloody announce it to everyone? Yeah, butt out. Why do you need to bloody announce it to everyone? Yeah, butt out. This one's very good. in the dingy old sheep sleepout. So romantic, I said yes, over 13 years ago. We got a text from someone called Andy Eyes,
Starting point is 00:14:32 and it says, my five-year-old at the time said, Mum, use your eyes if you want to become an eyes. Oh, that's cute. The kid must have known where the ring was. Uh-huh, 100%. Kids can't keep secrets. I've learned that. No, you shouldn't have told the five-year-old in the first place.
Starting point is 00:14:48 That's way too big a secret for a five-year-old to keep. Yeah. Way too big. Yeah. start. What about this one? Not completely ruined, but I proposed to my wife at the top of a mountain bushwalk on sunset. As she was walking up the last part to look out, to the lookout, I took everything out of my pockets to get the ring out and proposed. She said yes, and we walked back to the car, which was 40 plus minutes in the dark. I realized I'd left the keys at the very top of the mountain
Starting point is 00:15:17 when I'd taken everything out of my pockets, and so we had to do the whole walk again in the complete pitch dark. Oh, so an extra hour and a half. Plus, you've got to look for the keys in the dark. Oh. That would take all of the romance out of it. A little bit, eh? This one's good too. My now ex-husband decided he was going to propose in front of a waterfall at a picnic date I had planned. When we got to the waterfall, another guy was down on one knee proposing very romantically to his partner. What are the odds? We waited and sat on a bench not to ruin their moment. Then he handed me the ring and said, oh, well, you might as well just have this then.
Starting point is 00:15:56 He totally ruined it, but I'm glad we didn't ruin it for the other couple. Yeah, yeah. He was having a suck. I like how that person has been like my now ex-husband, and then, I mean, the proposal, maybe it was an omen. Oh, I don't know. What, if you, if you, pretend you're a woman.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Oh, yeah, yeah, no, no, I do agree with you. I was just thinking the idea of the proposal gets spoiled, the marriage is ruined. But no, that's different, isn't it? No, no, I'm not saying that if the proposal gets ruined, but if your partner who's proposing goes, you may as well have this then, you know, like it's not, it's a red flag for me.
Starting point is 00:16:36 That's how my mum says my dad proposed. Really? Yeah, dinner and he goes, how long we've been together? And she was like, oh, five years. And I guess we should get married then. This is just a PSA for any men listening. trust me, get down on one knee and do it properly. Even if you think she doesn't want it.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Exactly. Just do it. Just do it. Let her tell you to get up, but at least you did it. At least you, yeah. Yep. Get down on your bloody knee. Start off on the right foot, which is no foot, down on one knee.
Starting point is 00:17:07 Okay? Dead Am's Bree and Clint podcast. This is the tea. Look, I know there is a lot of excited people about the new live TV series, the Harry Potter one, where they're remaking it, Clint. Mm. And there's been a lot of chat around the casting of Harry, Ron and Hermione, because obviously they're the three big roles.
Starting point is 00:17:34 And there's a story out today talking about how much the three kids who have been cast in those roles for the TV series are getting paid for this first season. Yeah, it's a lot of work for these kids, you know? It's a hell of a lot of work. So the three kids that we're talking about, Dominique McLaughlin, he's 12, he's playing Harry, then you got Arabella Stanton, she's 11, and then Alistair Stout, he's 12.
Starting point is 00:17:59 So they're 11 and 12-year-old kids, right? They're very young, but like you said, a lot of work would go into making this TV series and reports today that they will be getting paid each 500,000 pounds, which I've done the math on it, is around 1.1 million New Zealand dollars. What for the first season? The first season.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Yeah. That's a hell of a lot of money if you ask me. It's a lot of money. It's just a lot of work because they're not going to stop at one season, are they? Harry Potter TV show, how many series are they making? Well, they're hoping they won't stop at one season. But that's a very good point, Bree. It's seven seasons that they're planning to do.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Seven? Yeah. Wow. And obviously they're going to make more, if the show becomes more popular, they'll have to pay them more to keep them obviously on board, all that kind of thing. Very young to be doing that much work. But yeah, a lot of money. Seven seasons, eight episodes in the first season.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Okay, so it's a relatively short season. You reckon? Yeah, like an eight episode. I mean, I guess every TV series is eight episodes a season now, isn't it? Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's not like Hillary Duff when she was a child actor. They used to do 40 episodes of season, Clint. And she wasn't getting anything close to half a million pounds, was she?
Starting point is 00:19:22 No way. Yeah. There you go. Good luck to them. Are you going to watch it, the HBO Harry Potter TV series? Not for me. No. I mean, I didn't watch the movies or read the books, so I just figured, why start now?
Starting point is 00:19:37 Yeah, why start now? That's the T. The ZDM Podcast Network. I have to bring up what I heard from our producer Ella earlier today. What has she done now? recently married. Have you guys hit the one year mark yet, Ella? Nearly in two, under two weeks. Ooh, exciting.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Well, if you get there. True. If you get there after what I've heard. Oh, yeah, that's true. It might go all to custard. Tell Bree what you're doing to your poor husband in bed. Right. So, Bree, I am a wriggler in bed when I'm sleeping. You and me both. Yeah. It hasn't been too much in a...
Starting point is 00:20:17 of an issue. You might have the odd fight about stealing a blanket. Of course, that's pretty common. Exactly. But over the weekend, not once but twice, I woke Ryan up with an elbow to the mouth and an elbow to the eye in my sleep. Mate, what kind of dreams are you having where you're literally elbowing your husband in his sleep? I don't know. You told me you were punching him. Well, it feels like a punch for him. I'm not actually.
Starting point is 00:20:48 And elbow's nearly worse, I'd say. Yeah. Is he waking up when you do it? Yeah, so I am asleep and I wake up to him going, oh, what the? And then getting mad at me. And then I'm confused and I'm like, oh, sorry, I'm so sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:02 And then I try pat his head and he doesn't like that. It's hard to apologise when you obviously don't mean it too because you don't remember doing it. Well, no, I feel bad, but I'm like, well, good night. Are you okay? Check for blood? No, all good. Are you sure that he's telling the truth is another one too?
Starting point is 00:21:16 do you think that maybe he's just trying to get some kind of one-upmanship on you so he can ask for something down the track and be like, well, you have been punching me in my sleep. That's true. So why can't I? Because I don't know. He could, he's all right. He could be lying.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Yeah, you have to take his word for it. And we all know you've told us before. You don't trust him. Yeah, you don't trust him. He's a dirty dog. How big's the bed? Because that's one solution is a bigger bed. Well, that's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:21:41 I was like, perfect. Here we go. Let's get a big old California king. Yeah. Yeah. Because I love a big bed. Is this unrelatable for me? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:21:49 After sleeping in a king bed, which I, I mean, I slept in, we slept in a queen for many, many years, my partner and I, but after sleeping in a king, and because I'm visiting my parents in Queensland at the moment, in my room here, it's a queen. It has been awful. I don't know if I could ever go back. Oh, you hate the queen. Oh, I hate it.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Because we got to, this is talk about unrelatable. We got a California king. Oh, you've got the californ. He's not that big one. We've got the mega big bed. And we got it because I'm a thrasher in bed. Yeah, right. See, you punch too.
Starting point is 00:22:24 You talk about being wriggly. No, no, like I toss and turn with force in my sleep. I'm like, huh, side to side. So we've got a really big bed. God, and you're a snorer. But I miss my wife in bed. So she's too far away. She's so far away from me.
Starting point is 00:22:39 That I don't remember. That's how she likes it, isn't it? And that is how she likes it. That is how she likes. Listen to Clint, oh, I miss my wife. I do. I love it. I wish you could be further away.
Starting point is 00:22:50 She's like, what do you think about installing? What do you think about installing an actual wall in between? Actually, yeah, that'd be. Maybe that's the solution. Could we get two California Kings side by side? Yeah. What are the biggest size? I literally was having, because my partner and I,
Starting point is 00:23:07 we've been talking about how much we've been hating sleeping in the queen bed. And then we're talking about it with some friends of ours. And they brought up, so there's the queen, then you go to a king, then you go to a super king, California king. Have you guys heard, is there, I'm pretty sure there's a European king. There's an Alaskan king. That was one of them, which is bigger. Which is bigger than the California king.
Starting point is 00:23:31 And then there's now a Florida king. Is the Florida the biggest? As far as I can see, the Florida is the biggest. Where do you get your sheets for that then? No, so this is the problem. This is the problem. And again, first world problem. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:44 The issue with having a California King is it's very hard to get your sheets on sale at Briscoes. I was going to say, can you go to Briscoes and even find them? Hardly. No. Hardly. And I like patterns and designs and, you know, you want all that. I've just looked up online the different names of the sizes of the beds.
Starting point is 00:24:01 You want to hear what some of them are called? Yeah. It's quite interesting. So you've got your California King, which we all know, the Olympic Queen, which is smaller than the California King. It's tiny. It's a Simone Biles size bed, isn't it? It's bigger than a queen, just, I think. And then you've got the Wyoming King, the Texas King, the Alaskan King, the Alberta King, the Texas.
Starting point is 00:24:28 There's so many different types. I wonder what sort of bed Shaq sleeps in. That's a great question. When you go Queen King, Supreme King, California King, they don't get any longer. They just get wider and wider and wider. Surely there would be something for the tall people. I mean, what about you? Are your feet dangling off the bid?
Starting point is 00:24:46 No, not in the California. I've just looked up what Shaquille O'Neal has as a bed. It's custom made. Here we go. It's custom made and it measures 20 feet long by 10 feet wide. 20 feet long? Yes. It's designed to accommodate his 7 foot 1 frame
Starting point is 00:25:09 and it's called a Super King, but it's roughly one-fifth the size of a tennis court. What? Oh my. But 20 feet long. It says it, 20 feet long, it's custom-made. That's three times the length of him. You need a massive bedroom.
Starting point is 00:25:25 You need like a lounge or a dining hall. And you have to have your sheets custom made. God, you really could top and tail in that bed, though. By a sailmaker. By someone who makes sales for pirate ships. Yeah. That's crazy. Imagine trying to restuff the duvet inner.
Starting point is 00:25:42 And a bed like that. Because usually how I do it is like get into the duvet and then start fishing. You would. You wouldn't find the exit sign. It would be like a maze. You could get lost in there and get lost for three days. About a whole tennis team or basketball team to direct you out of there. Imagine trying to fold the fitted sheet for that bed.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Someone said, guys. How many pillows would you need? All these beds sound like types of crabs. They do, don't they? California. California, Kang. the Alaskan thing. It's ZAM's Brie and Clint Podcast.
Starting point is 00:26:17 We were just talking before, Bree, about sleep crimes being committed in your bed and we heard from the person whose workmate sleeps nude and is also a sleepwalker and left the hotel on a work conference and was nude in the elevator. Yes. This one could be worse.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Someone said, guys, I'm a sleepwalker and I sleep walked naked into my in-laws bedroom. Oh, no. Oh, no. No. Imagine trying to explain to them. I was sleepwalking and like they're never going to believe you. Imagine you're the parents and you wake up and your daughter's husband or boyfriend is at the foot of your bed butt naked.
Starting point is 00:27:01 What do you do? What's your first reaction? Do you react with sympathy first? Do you lead with compassion? Or do you just, I just don't know what your natural reaction would be. The best case scenario for those three people involved in that incident is that you all choose to completely forget about it. And never.
Starting point is 00:27:28 And never mention it ever again. I think you're right. I think you're right. I think the best case scenario is you're able to lead the naked person back to their bedroom. Yes. and put them back into bed and they hopefully have no knowledge of it, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:44 You don't wake them. And you know, and your wife knows. And if you want, could you tell your daughter and you bring her in on the horrible secret that you know? Tell no one. Tell no one. Tell no one. But always keep it as ammo, just in case you need it one day.
Starting point is 00:28:01 You know how they say never wake a sleepwalker? Yeah. What is the protocol around waking a naked sleepwalker? You know what is the protocol there? Yeah, yeah. I think it's worse because then they don't know where they are and they also don't know why they're naked. It's ZM's Breinclint podcast.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Let's play our newish games. Breanclan's small town, big deal. Still pretty new and still with limited success. Just how we like our games, right, Bree? Exactly. You know, set the bar low, which the bar is very low for this. I think you're the only one that's yet to get a point. in the game. Why on earth would we want to run a successful game on the Bree and Clint show?
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's not our thing, is it? No, it really isn't. It's very off-brand for us. We're both from small towns. Last week I called the Cheese Factory in your hometown in a place called Stanthorpe Australia, and they had absolutely no idea who you were, Bre. A quick question for you. Do you know a local girl by the name of Brianna Thomasel? No, I don't. Have you been to the Cheese Factory since you've been home? You know what's so funny is my mum went there a couple of days ago.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Yeah. And the owner of the cheese factory has come out and said, Die, I'm so sorry that worker, she's dead to me. I know exactly who your family is. And if you had a called me, I would have known. But no, she's new at the cheese factory. So that was the story there. Well, I guess we'll just have to take your word for that, Brie.
Starting point is 00:29:32 I guess we'll just have to believe you, won't we? Yep, you will. Look, it's your turn this week. where we're going to call someone from your small town to see if they know who you are, Clint. Okay, Brie. I'm very interested in where you're going to call this week. I wanted to go with, I thought we'd take it up a notch
Starting point is 00:29:51 and call places which I think would have a good chance of knowing who Clint Roberts is. And the reason they would is because you used to work at this place. Oh, interesting. The petrol station you used to work at as a teenager. BP Fairy Springs is where we will be calling this afternoon. I did. I worked there with my dad. I mean, they've since demolished and completely rebuilt the petrol station.
Starting point is 00:30:17 But it's in the same place. It's the same petrol station. There still could be someone that you worked with that works there. We don't know. We're about to find out. Claudia, please connect us to BP Fairy Springs to see if I am a big deal in my small town still. Hello.
Starting point is 00:30:36 Hello. Hi. Hi, what was your name? Mukul. Lucul, I have a question for you. I was just wondering if you knew someone with the name Clint Roberts. Not really now. No, you've never heard of that person before, not an ex-employee?
Starting point is 00:30:58 No. No? You sure? Clinton Roberts? No. Okay. That's all I needed. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:31:06 There's not a picture of me in the staff room, Muckle? No. No? Employee of the month he would have been maybe once. They stuck there as they have the Clint Roberts Memorial pump at the BP? No, not really, no. No. Oh well, you win some of those times.
Starting point is 00:31:25 Thank you. Thank you. Thanks, mate. God, no legacy at all at BP Fairy Springs for you, Clint. That is another failed attempt at small down. small town big deal. I wonder if they remember me anywhere I used to work. Like, I wonder if you called The Edge
Starting point is 00:31:41 if they would have any idea who I was. Or if they're like, no, we've got another Clint now. We had Sharon Casey on the show a few weeks ago and she said it kind of rung a bell, but not really. Play Z-Dames, Bree and Clint. Let's get classical. Bree and Clint. Let's get classical.
Starting point is 00:32:01 It's me and you, Bree, against the evil producer Ella In a race to guess songs as quickly as possible, except they're not regular songs. Well, they are, except Claudia's redone them on a piano. Yeah, I've learned how to play myself. Yeah. Huh? You're so talented, Claude.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Wait, you've learned how to what? I learned myself how to play the piano. What you do in the privacy of your own home is your business. Did you only just learn that? I'm a pianist. Wait, you're what? You're what? You're confused.
Starting point is 00:32:31 Ah, good. Funny, funny, funny. Well, let's play, shall we? Yeah, you guys know the rules. Make sure you buzz in with your name. I need the artist and the name of the song. And the first team to two points is going to win. Here is your first song.
Starting point is 00:32:44 See ya, chandelier. That's the one. Is it? Yeah. I had nothing. Even after she said it, I had nothing. Same here. Sometimes it clicks in once you hear it, but not.
Starting point is 00:33:13 I can hear it now. All right. Maybe you'll get the next one. That's one point for Ella. Here's another. song. Clint. Havana Unana
Starting point is 00:33:27 by Camilla Cabo. Not that one. God damn. Worth a try. Herigis. Dun, do. Nah, not at the moment.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Okay, we're all back in. Fancy Eguizalia. Yeah. That's right. Whoa. That's right. Very good from her this week. I think not to quote Austin Powers
Starting point is 00:33:57 you guys. Yeah. After last week where I did nothing and Clint you did everything and won us the game I literally said no words I think I've lost my mojo I think I've found your mojo Yeah I don't know if you can say that today Brie
Starting point is 00:34:12 I think Ella was just so on That we didn't stand a chance Geez yeah no shade Megan you correctly picked the winner of that game So you get 50 KFC chicken dollars Well done Woohoo Good show Megan good show I would
Starting point is 00:34:30 I will save long-time listener, first-time caller. And she's a loud one. Thanks, Megan, good to have you on. Oh, thanks, guys. See you. Sweet as, see you later. ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast. It's a Tuesday, and on a Tuesday, we go looking for a name in a haystack.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Hardest game and radio. $3,150 up for grabs today, Bree. The random person on the end of the phone answers with the name that we are looking for today. That's how much money they will win. That is correct, Clint. Both are randomly selected from our two producers. Let's go with the place we're calling first. Who's picking the place?
Starting point is 00:35:24 Claudia. Claudia, where are we calling for name in a haystack? I'm being real creative this week because Bree's gone back to her hometown. I want to combine both the elements of Clint's hometown and Bree's hometown. So we're going to Rotarua, where Clint's from. And we're calling the most Australian shop I can think of, Bunnings. I love it. Very good.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Bunnings Roderua. Okay, Ella, who works at Bunnings Roderua? You guys roll your eyes at the names I pick, but I think this could work, Dustin. Dustin. Dustin. I'm trying. Della. What world do you live in?
Starting point is 00:36:03 I know what world she lives in. She lives in a stranger things world. How many people do you know personally, Ella, with the name Dustin? Three. No, you do. Do you want to change it? No, you can't change it because we can't influence it. It has to be randomly selected.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I think we permanently banned Ella for picking the name in this game. It's a bit of fun. All right. Claudia, please connect us to Bunnings Rotorua, where if Dustin answers the phone, he or she Good afternoon, welcome to the Bunnings-Rot-Rua. You're speaking with Kelly. Hi, Kelly.
Starting point is 00:36:42 It's Brian Clint calling from ZDM Radio Station. How are you? Hi, Kelly. Oh, good, thank you. I've got a very simple question for you, Kelly. Is there anyone? And I know you've got a lot of staff there, and I don't expect you to know everyone's name.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Is there anyone at Bunnings-Rod-Rua with the name Dustin? He worked for us a long time ago. He's not here anymore. Whoa. Okay. Wow, Kelly. Wow. You've just saved one of our producers, a big embarrassment.
Starting point is 00:37:10 You've just saved her job. Yeah, literally. If Dustin, Kelly, if Dustin had answered the phone today, we play this game called Name and a Haystack, and if Dustin had answered the phone, he would have won $3,150. Oh, damn. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Don't, if you still know Dustin, don't let him know because it's just going to be a disappointment. Okay. Okay. I won't. Thanks, Kelly. He lives in Australia now, so. Oh.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Yeah. All good, Kelly. Thank you so much. Thank you, Kelly. See you later. Bye. Oh, Bree. Who's going to apologise to Ella first?
Starting point is 00:37:44 Yep, line up. I think you do. I was going to work on mine, so if you could do yours. Okay, I'm all ears. Ella. Yes. I apologize to you for picking the name Dustin. Turns out wasn't that far-fetched and I was wrong.
Starting point is 00:38:02 Oh, wow. Can you clip that for me, Claude? I want that as my ringtone. And my alarm, my voice message, my doorbell. Okay, calm down. And I just want to echo what Bree said. We'll cop out, as usual. Absolute cop out from you.
Starting point is 00:38:19 All right, next week, $3,200. That is, Brenclint. The roast of Brie and Clint is weeks away. It's the 8th of May. It's part of the Comedy Festival. It's in Auckland on a Friday, Friday night. So we encourage you to come. If not for the entertainment, for Morrill.
Starting point is 00:38:35 support for you and I, right, Bree? Yes, we would really appreciate that. It'd be nice to have some supportive friends in the room. In the lead up to this, we are thickening our own skin. We are conditioning ourselves to roasting. By making ourselves vulnerable, we offered Haley Sproul the opportunity to roast us live on radio. She didn't hold back.
Starting point is 00:38:58 She took that opportunity and she sprinted with it, Clint. We offered the opportunity to your mother, Mama died to roast us and I feel like she really got off on it to be honest Yeah you should have seen her afterwards She had a spring in her step For days Clint for days So we've got to keep it up
Starting point is 00:39:16 We've got to keep it up There's no point slackening off now I have asked ChatGPT to roast us this afternoon And you'd be surprised how much Chat GPT knows about us personally About our show as a brand About our listeners
Starting point is 00:39:33 and the contribution they make to this podcast and the people grinning out there in the producers booth, our producers, who have also been roasted by ChatGPT this afternoon. No way. We didn't sign up for this. No, you didn't. No, you didn't.
Starting point is 00:39:47 I mean, guys, don't even be worried. It's a bloody computer. I mean, my feelings aren't going to be hurt by a computer. This, straight from the computer's mouth, where I just said to it, please roast the Brian Clint show. Here's the first one. It says, your show is basically proof that you don't need a plan to be on the radio.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Just confidence and a red on-air sign. You treat structure like it's optional, like Bree's gym membership. Verbatim from a computer. I need have words with him. Chat GPT on the roast of Bree and Clint. You ever listen back to your guys' show and think, wow, that was fun? Neither. It's more like, why did that story take?
Starting point is 00:40:34 six minutes and still not have a point. Wow. It's so specific and so correct. Which is what makes it hurt. Holy moly. I said chat GPT roast the Breanne Clint Show and it said, we ask listeners for texts like we're crowdsourcing comedy, but 80% of them sound like someone typed the text while driving with their knees.
Starting point is 00:41:03 How you don't get to roast our listeners. Yeah, how dare chat GPT? How dare they? I mean, probably quite correct, and we don't condone texting while driving. I love how you guys hype up every topic, like, well, this is going to break the internet. And then it's just Karen from Tohanga
Starting point is 00:41:21 saying her worst advice was don't eat carbs, electric stuff, guys. Fruit to Karen. Yeah, she don't sign up for us. Karen alone. The Brian Clint Show has a, real, we'll fix it in post energy, which is bold because
Starting point is 00:41:37 it's live radio. I like that one, that's good. Very smart. It then decided to take to us individually, Bree. Oh, here we go. And it went to me first. It says, Clint runs the Bree and Clint show like a substitute teacher who wants to be
Starting point is 00:41:54 liked. Great vibes, zero discipline, and everyone would rather be watching a movie. Hey. Hey. I do not want to be liked. Oh, that is your main goal in life other than be rich. Hey, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Sorry, sorry. Don't turn on each other. Sorry, sorry, guys. We cannot turn on each other. Clint's biggest strength is setting up a great joke and then respectfully letting it pass by untouched like he's holding the door open for it. Okay, Chatsybtee then switched focus to Brie.
Starting point is 00:42:37 I think we can breeze past these. No, we cannot. I asked Chachybti Roast the Bree and Clint show. This is to get us ready for the roast of Bree and Clint. And for Bree, it said, Bree tells a story like she's getting paid by the word. By the time we get to the point, I've emotionally moved on, made dinner and filed my taxes.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Hey, hey. Hey. Hey. I'm incorrect. A nice a long story? Correct. And most of the time the stories are average, so you sit through a very long story with no payoff.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Short story gone long. Bre reacts to things at a 10 every time, which is impressive because even when the stories are three, she's out here treating like it's breaking news. I can't help that I've got ADHD and everything is stimulating to me. Right? I said, roast the Bree and Clint show, chat GPT,
Starting point is 00:43:31 and it then switched focus to our producers and it knew our producers by name. This is what's scary about this AI thing. And it said, big shout out to Ella and Claudia. Without them, the show would have no structure, which is crazy because with them, the show has no structure. That's quite good.
Starting point is 00:43:54 That's good, very good. One last parting shot for the whole show, I said to chat GPT, roast us ahead of our roast, and it said, In all honesty, your show is like a podcast that accidentally got put on live radio. Too long, barely edited, and somehow you are still confident that people should be listening to this. You know what?
Starting point is 00:44:16 Have they been talking to our bosses? Because this is what we get told in bloody air checks all the time. Not only are we confident you should be listening. We're asking you to pay money to come and watch us get roasted. And if you're up for it, you can do that at comedy. Festival.co.n. The roast of Brian Clinton is just 25 bucks. After that, Clint,
Starting point is 00:44:37 getting a thick skin. I think our whole bodies are going to have to be calloused. I'm going to wear leather. I think I'm going to wear like a motorcycle outfit. It's a good idea. Z-N's Brie and Clint. All I want from my birthday bangers.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Here we go. Birthday Banga time for your Tuesday. Number one songs when people turn 16 and then we'll play our favorite one, Clint. Debbie is up first on birthday banger. Hi, Debbie. Hi, Debbie. Hi, Brian Clint.
Starting point is 00:45:06 How are you doing, Debbie? How's your day been? I'm pretty relaxed. Oh, good to hear, Debbie. What's it been? Why is it relaxed? Oh, we didn't have to do anything today. Oh, perfect.
Starting point is 00:45:20 What a great day. How bloody good. Apart from call us for birthday banger, Debbie. That's it. Yeah. Okay, well, let's do it. What is your birthday? The 21st.
Starting point is 00:45:31 of June 1969. All right, Debbie. That means you was 16 in 1985, and here's your birthday banger. Oh, yeah, Debbie, tears for fears.
Starting point is 00:45:48 What do you reckon? Yeah, that's not bad. That's a banger. I like it, Debbie. Nice and relaxing, Debbie. Yep. Fits the bill. Okay, wait there.
Starting point is 00:45:59 Shannon's going to do a birthday banger. Hey, Shannon. Hi, Shannon. Hey, team. Hey, first time I'm at Kola, a long-time listener. Uh-oh. Waze.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Go Shannon. We're finally real gin, Shannon. About time. Well, we appreciate you finally calling through. Let's hope we don't disappoint you. What is your birthday? 30th of May, 1988. All right, Shannon.
Starting point is 00:46:26 That means you were 16 in 2004. We've done our calculations, and this was at the top. Banger. Spider-bait. And BlackBiddy. Me like that one. Such a weird song. Do you like it, Shannon?
Starting point is 00:46:51 It was a good time to be alive for sure. Yeah. Okay, wait there, Shannon. One more birthday banger for OniCor. Hi, OniCorps. Hi, OniCorps. Hi, how are you? Good.
Starting point is 00:47:04 How's your day been? It's been pretty good, thank you. Good to hear. Hey, what is your DOB? It's the 27th of all. August 1990. Right, that's easy math. You were 16 in 2006.
Starting point is 00:47:18 And in 06, this was number one. I feel like we've had this one before, Clint. Good, dad joke. That's Beyonce and Deja Vu. On Nicole, what do you reckon? Oh, it's not bad. It's not bad, yeah. Oh, it's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:47:41 I feel like it's one of those Beyonce songs that... It's not overplayed. Not overplayed, exactly. She has a few really good co-labs with her husband. This is one. And that's one of them. Yeah, I agree. Okay, spider bait, tears for fears.
Starting point is 00:47:58 God, it's a real motley crew. They're so different. They're so different. I'm going to vote for, I don't often vote for Beyonce, but I'm going to vote for that Beyonce song. I think I'm going with you. Beyonce deja vu. No way.
Starting point is 00:48:12 On Nicol, congratulations. You've just won birthday banger. Perfect. Thank you. it is from the year 2006. It's a Beyonce and Jay-Z classic. I remember this takes me back.
Starting point is 00:48:28 Brian Clinton, you're on Z-M. Z-Ns, Breed-Klinch, podcast. Banger. Birthday banger, in fact, for Oni-Corps. That's Beyonce and Jay-Z's deja vu. Number one in 2007. For me, Beyonce at the top of her game right there.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Yeah, tune. No regrets. The ZM Podcast Network. There is a theory about grandmas that is picking up speed on socials. Okay. And as you and I, look, you and I, I think we take pride in being, you know, journalists that investigate. Do we? Are we?
Starting point is 00:49:14 We are now. Okay, good. Yeah, same. And we use, you know, we use our platform. to investigate these theories. And I think that's what I want to do this afternoon. So I've grabbed the audio off of TikTok and here's the theory about grandmas that is doing the rounds. Where are all the tall grandmas?
Starting point is 00:49:34 Where are they? Like really tall, six foot elderly women, 80 plus. I just never see a six foot plus granny. I don't. According to my comments, like there are so many 511 plus. six foot plus women. But I'm like, it can't be that. We're going to be the first tall grandma generation.
Starting point is 00:49:52 It can't. Where are they? It's a great question, Clint. And you and I are about to investigate. Okay. Because I think she's right. I think there's merit in the theory that I don't recall meeting or seeing many older grannies that are above five foot six.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Well, then let us investigate. We have a panel of grandmas. people on the phones standing by and Lana's going to kick us off. Hi Lana. Hi Lana. Hi, how are you? We are well. Good, thank you, Lana.
Starting point is 00:50:26 First question, is your beautiful grandma still with us? No. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. It's all good, thank you. Sorry to hear that she's passed. How old would she have been if she was still with us? That's a good question. She was born in 1928.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Okay, perfect. She is in the age bracket that we are looking for. She'd be 98. 98? There you go. Okay, perfect. That is the age bracket I am needing. And Lana, from your memory, was your grandma a tall woman?
Starting point is 00:51:03 She was when she was younger, but not when she passed. Yeah. Because they shrink. They do shrink. They shrink. When you say she was, do you know roughly how tall she was? Oh, I would say she would have been nearly not six foot, but she was tall. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:23 And yeah, definitely when she passed, she was, yeah, she had shrunk a lot. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they do. Okay, thank you, Lana. We appreciate it. Okay, appreciate that, Lana. That's doing nothing for this theory, Clint. Abby, hi, Abby.
Starting point is 00:51:36 Hi, Abby. Hi, Abby. Hello, hi. Is your beautiful grandma still with us, Abby? Um, the wine from my mom's side, yes. My dad's side, not anymore. Okay. Let's deal with the living one, shall we, Bree?
Starting point is 00:51:49 Yes, let's deal with the living one. How old is she? I think she's about 86 or 87. Great. Okay, great. It's a good innings. Perfect age bracket for this theory. And Abby, is she a tall woman?
Starting point is 00:52:04 No, not at all. You know what? Did she used to be? Not at all. Pardon? Did she used to be? No. No.
Starting point is 00:52:12 Thank you, Abby. My grandma from my dad. side years she was, she was still about 5'9. 59, what the hell? I think so 58, 59, yeah. Wow. Yeah, that's decent. Thank you, Abby.
Starting point is 00:52:26 We're searching for tall grandmas. Megan's here. Hi, Megan. Hi, Megan. Hi. Your grandma's still with us? She is. Oh, congrats.
Starting point is 00:52:34 How old? She's going to be 96 in May. Wow. Yeah. Excellent. Okay, I'm hoping we're going to... That's awesome. I hope she's six foot four.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Imagine. And Megan is she's... your grandma? A tall woman. Absolutely not. No. She's itty. She's eddy,
Starting point is 00:52:51 Betty, isn't she, Megan? She's like four foot seven at a good day. She's really short. That's amazing. She wasn't always four foot seven, though, was she, Megan? She was always really short. Oh, she was, okay. Our whole family is short.
Starting point is 00:53:05 God, you were the perfect person to have called through for this, Megan. Thank you. Four foot seven. Four foot seven? Okay, let's go to Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Hi. Your grandma still with us? Yes, she is. And how old is she? She's got 82, 83. Great, and is she tall? No. I'm 5'6 and I probably still got about a, almost a hit on her.
Starting point is 00:53:31 Yeah, right. Really? Yeah. That's music to my ears, Sarah. Tiny little granny. Thank you, Sarah. One more from Kara. Hi, Kara.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Hi, Kara. Kara, your grandma still with us? Oh, are you there, Kara? Yes, I'm now. There she is. Kara, grandma's still alive? Yeah, both of them. Both of them.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Congrats, Mazelta. And how tall are they, Kara? Oh, no. Oh, losing Kara. I need to know. Do the producers know? No, we haven't been able to get the details out of Kara at all. That's all.
Starting point is 00:54:15 That's all right. I feel like you've got five. I feel like you've got a good cross-section of grandmas there. And what does it do for your theory, Bree? Oh, it's about 50. 50 really, isn't it? Yeah, my grandma was quite tall, to be honest with you. Was she? How tall was your grandma?
Starting point is 00:54:27 I think she was like 5.9? Yeah, that's tall. Yeah, but not at the end, you know? How tall was she at the end? Oh, she was tiny, yeah. Wow. They shrink. It's osteoporosis, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:54:42 God. I hope I don't shrink too much. You will. We all will. Imagine if you were already short and then you shrunk so much. much that you couldn't ride the rides at a theme park anymore. Well, that's like our caller before, the 96-year-old 4-foot-7 grandma.
Starting point is 00:54:58 She can't go on anything. Oh, true. Yeah. Gutted for her. It's ZAM's Bree and Clint Podcast. We were testing Bree's tiny grandma theory before. You were trying to show that all grandmas are itty-bitty. And I would say most are from the information that we got, Bree.
Starting point is 00:55:16 Yeah, I would say that the theory did check out mostly. And I think it's obviously to do with, you know, that generation. Like we're getting taller as people. As the human race, we are getting taller. And that's obviously because of the food that's available. Yes, modern medicine. Modern medicine and all the rest of it. So, I mean, the theory does check out.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Like this text here from Mel, my grandma was 5'2. Born in 1901, passed at 97. But also had rickets and polio as a kid. and then osteoporosis from those diseases as an older woman. Far out. Honestly, the things that they had to battle back in the day, you know? Consumption? What even is consumption?
Starting point is 00:56:02 And now all of us are like, we've got tech neck and a thing in our finger that's like from holding our phones too much. Georgia said, my nana is six foot one and she's the shortest of her five sisters. and Nana is turning 80 this year. Damn, you've got a 6'4-1, 80-year-old Nana? See, I have never seen that before in my life. I agree, I've never seen that.
Starting point is 00:56:27 That should be the eighth wonder of the world. I hope your nannas have a nana indoor netball team, and they dominate. How good would that be? And all five of them are over six feet. That's crazy. What would that team be called, is the real question? Huge-ass nannas. Or H-A-H-A-N, H-A-N, H-A-N, H-A-Nas.
Starting point is 00:56:51 The huge-ass nannas. And then you were looking for tall nannas, looking for six-foot nannas. Someone texted and said, both my grandmas are six-foot under. Wow. Oh, very good. You had me for a minute. What about this?
Starting point is 00:57:08 I did a job for an old girl. She was 84 at the time. I'm 6-4, and she was about an inch shorter than me. So do the math. Damn. Wow. It's hot. Do you guys hook out? I feel like I've watched this on a website before.
Starting point is 00:57:24 Play ZM's Brie and Clint on Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from three on ZDem.
