Afternoon, everybody. Welcome to the Brian Clint Show. Sorry, we were delayed. I had to change the setting. We were on the Fletch for an in Haley setting. I swear to God, they're deaf. I swear the volume level that comes out of these headphones. Mate, you've turned a corner, I think.

What's that? I was loving it. Oh, were you? I was just vibing, you know? Are you that type of person? Then you're deaf too. When you're driving and you turn down the music to reverse, you're like, I just got to turn down the music.

I turn down the music when I'm close to the destination and I've got to see the right address. Turning down the music. What number is that, Cheryl? Is that number 12? Turn the music off actually. I can't concentrate. You're telling me you can reverse park with the music at full volume? No, I was just actually describing exactly what I'm like.

Yeah, exactly right. Although I can reverse in any situation, time or day, night. You're almost exclusively reversed. aren't you? Summer. I can reverse park under any circumstance. Yeah, yeah. I can reverse a trailer if you want me to. Yeah, it's Bree, back it up to myself. Yeah, I like it. We're going to put you in the Georgia go to Europe for free at 4 o'clock today. That's Macona World Tour Passport Edition. And we're going to have some really fun jibba jammer along the way. It's a great day today. It's name in a haystack day. That's right. If you don't know what

name them in the haystack is we call a random business with a random pre-organized name, and if that person answers the phone, today we're at $1,650. It is literally the hardest game in radio and we're playing. Like, no, none of the listeners are playing. No one knows they're playing when we call them either. Yeah, they don't even know that they're playing.

The dream would be that we call someone who has the name who knows the segment, which is a third degree of difficulty. But that's not what's required. It's just the name that's required. Exactly. I've got $5 that it's going to go off. today.

$5. I'm putting five bucks on it. Wow, you're really risking it all with that $5 aren't you? Oh, what are you

got then? I'll put $10 on it that it won't go. Oh, that's a way better odds. It's called name in a haystack. TAB wouldn't even

give you odds on that bet. Yeah, is it paying a dollar 01. Let's get into a fresh round of trading versus lady with the ladies. I think it's almost time to say they can't be beaten

this year. It's 64 ladies, 58 tradies, still time to change it, but the trend has been set for the entire year. I don't know. I feel the tradie come back. I put five bucks on it. We're getting all these five dollars from? You have a big one on the pokies. Maybe. Play ZDEM's Bree and Clint.

It's treaty versus ladies. Three, two, two. Right, isn't it? The tradies and the ladies go head to head. time every day on our show. We keep score. Trady's on 58, ladies on 64. Our lady is in the Waikato. She's 36 and she has taken up skiing as a hobby. Welcome to the show Ash. Hi Ash. Hi, guys. How are you? Good, thank you. I've got so many questions. How much have you skied and is this something you just took up? Out of the blue. Yeah, out of the blue. Yep, out of the blue.

This is my second time this season after buying a Faka Pappa season pass at the start of the year. Very good. And you're skiing, not snowboarding, right? I'm skiing. How so's that bummer after the first ski of the season, eh? It's the knees.

Oh, the knees. I have to agree. That's how we know. Our lady is in her mid-thirties. Ash, I'm going skiing next week for the first time in like two years, maybe, three years. And can I ask you, are you like me every time when you're skiing, are you just terrified for your life?

Oh, yeah, absolutely. Okay, good. And those are their lives around me. Yeah, yeah. Me too. Like a wrecking ball coming down the mountain. Well, pizza french fries, guys. So it's not just me.

Hello. Oh, there she is. How come you don't know if you passed? My mom gave me a box of my stuff and I found it in an envelope. Oh, you're unopened level three results. Yeah. Wow. How uninterested are you to not even open it?

That's a boss move. Did you pass? Yes, I passed. Woo-hoo. And now they're cancelled it. Now it's worthless. Now they're getting rid of NCAA altogether. What a waste of time.

You just got to buzz in and give it a go, eh, Neve? Yeah. And it's those kind of smarts that made you pass your level three. We think. We think. No, we know. Ash, you're our champion. Congratulations.

There's $50 cash coming your way, thanks to KFC. Nice work, Ash. Thank you. No worries. ZDM's Brie and Clint Podcast. Are you a minimalist? Nikki Reid, who was from the Twilight Films, has said this. I'm wearing my same shoes right now that I've worn for 15 years,

and I just got them resold. Look at the bottom of that. I resold them like every three years because I wear the same shoes every day. I wear the same clothes every day. I've got vintage pants on, and they've got a bunch of holes. And if I were to turn around and show you my butt pockets, you would see that my mom helps me patch the back. of them because I wear the same pants. I ride my horses in them. I wear them to work. I'm really such

a simple gal. Question. Yeah. If she wears the same thing every day, when does she wash it? Great question. Great question. Also, hard to know if she's a true minimalist or if she's crafting a personality around being a low maintenance girly, where she's like, honestly. Yes. Yeah, yeah. and does she own just one pair of underwear? But that's the ultimate. You know? That's the ultimate, isn't it? That is a true minimalist.

And that's what we're trying to get to this afternoon. And in true minimalist form, we will only be taking one call. I love it. You know? I love it. Staying true. Maddie, welcome to the show. Hi, Maddie.

Hi. Who's the minimalist in your life and what makes them so minimalistic? My brother, he lives overseas. and when we went over to visit him he had to go out and buy cutlery and plates and bowls and a dining table and a couch because you were visiting

because we were visiting yeah otherwise he just pretty much had one fork one spoon one knife one plate for himself is that what we were looking for is that by choice of being a minimalist or just because he was poor no probably just by choice

that's a really good point brief because some people have texted and said what's a difference between minimalism and being poor. Yes. Minimalism is intentional, right, Maddie? Yeah, yeah, definitely. He just chose to spend his money on other things. But again, again, I wonder, is he a minimalist,

or is he just like a useless boy? You know how all boys go through a phase of, they don't have a bed, they just have a mattress on the floor with maybe some crates underneath it. Yes. You know? Yeah, probably. Yeah, true bachelor.

True bachelor. Yeah, they're easy to get confused as well. Where did you sleep when you were there, Maddie? surely not at his house, he wouldn't have a spare room. Yeah, he had to buy beds. He would have hated it. Maddie, you said he needed to buy a couch. Where would he set?

He would just mostly watch things on his computer, so he just sat at his computer desk. Oh, my God. Oh, my God, that's nowhere to live. That's wild. I'm into minimalism as a concept, but that feels too far. Bit too far. Thanks, Maddie.

You're our only caller, and that's... That's it. We wouldn't want it any other way. We're going to end it there. Oh, we'll take one text. I got a couple of texts. Okay. This text is quite good.

It says, my dad's a minimalist. My mum is a hoarder. 25 years ago, they decided to just live in separate houses. Oh, my God. And it works. They're still married, still in love, still hang out every day just in two different houses. I love that. But there's a certain irony in a minimalist owning two houses.

That could be the next rom-com. That could be the plot for the next rom-com. Yeah. That's the holiday. part two, isn't it? Yeah. I keep my relationships, minimalist. The least amount of affection

is possible. I like that. Yeah. Is that my wife? Brian Clint, we're going to talk about what your lock screen says about you next. Oh, what picture you've got on the back of your lock screen.

So if you've got a unique lock screen, feel free to text us on 9696 and let us know what it is. We can't receive screenshots because our text machines from 2004. But describe it. to us in words, okay? Paint the picture. ZM's Bray and Clint. Samba on ZM, Brian Clint.

I read an article today about what your lock screen says about you. It's not groundbreaking stuff, but I do find it interesting, like, what people choose to have on their lock screen when it's outside of the ordinary. There's been some high-profile lock screens revealed recently. Kylie Jennifer. Kylie Jennifer has been revealed to have Timothy Chamalay on hers. Oh, yeah, pretty standard. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey's lockscreen got revealed recently

Well, his did What's his? Picture of him and her Oh yeah, that's nice And everyone started going Is that their secret wedding? Is it a secret wedding photo? And you brought to the show

recently Donald Trump's lock screen Which is Donald Trump A picture of himself Picture of his face Clinical psychologist Dr Rebecca Ray says we choose images That connect emotionally

so your lock screen will reflect what you value and love what grounds you or what you're working through at the moment. That's the psychology of picking a lock screen. So what does each lock screen mean? Can we table what we've got first? Can we be honest? Claudia, what's your lock screen? I'll give you one guess.

Your dog. Correct. Ella's just run out of the room but I'm going to assume that hers is a picture of her wedding day. Do we think? Is that what yours is Ella? It should be? Yeah, yeah. Is it just you or a picture of you?

And Ryan. Just Ryan. Oh, just him. Is it just him? Yeah, in the forest. Girl, it's your wedding. Are you in the photo? No.

Wasn't his wedding. What? No, it's okay. No, it's fine. What about you? Kids and dog. Kids and dog. And you, Bree?

A shirtless picture, no, sorry, a picture of Sean Mendez and his budgie smugglers. It's hot. That's actually in the, Fliss, too. Is it? Yeah, yeah.

What does it mean? If you've got a picture of you and your partner together, it reflects love, connection, and emotional closeness. Also, some people want to keep their special person front of mind. Oh, boring. Oh, boring. People with motivational quotes, is their lock screen? It just means they're locked in. Or they want to be locked in.

Or they want people to think that they're locked in. Got it. It's one of those. People with their animal. That's you, Claudia. kind of me as well you want to be reminded of the joy and happiness that that animal brings to you

Oh, correct. Either that or you've got no one else in your life. That is also true. Said with chips in mouth. People wear pictures of celebrities. This is you, Brie. Yes. And also fictional characters

Like you might have Topless celebrities. Peacchoo on there as well. That's the same category. Got it. You're looking to bring joy and creativity. I like that. I'm into it.

And if you have a picture of yourself like Donald Trump. Yeah, what does that mean? It can be a sign of confidence, self-celebration or motivation. It can also be a sign of narcissism. I feel like the equivalent of having yourself as your lock screen is when dogs do a wee and then they kick all their pheromones back afterwards. Oh, they roll around in it. No, no, no.

They'll do the wee and then they'll... Oh, yeah. And they're just kicking all their pheromones all over the place being like, cop that, cop that. Ah, yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah. I feel like that's the dog. It's like marking your territory on your own screen.

Some quick ones from the text machine for us to analyze. I asked you guys, what's your lock screen? Someone said, mine is a picture of my son giving me the middle finger. I love that. That means you've got a sense of humor. Someone said him a massive, the summer I turned pretty fan. Mine's a collage of that. Well, you're just fanning out.

That's what that means. Yeah. Here's a good one. My lock screen is a photo of my jacked-up 1999 Mitsubishi Pajero. That's bogan. Nice. Yeah, it's good. What that means, you're boken, is that...

Yeah, and someone, this is the more interesting one to me. I'm still running the standard iPhone screen saver that comes on it when you buy it. People have never changed their lock screen. What does that mean? What does that mean? I know what it means. What? They're horrible.

with technology. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or, or... Or... Or... CBF. Yeah, CBF.

Yeah, maybe they're good people. Maybe they got it right. Maybe that's who we should aspire to be. Yep. Z&M's Bree and Clint podcast. Time for the tea. The tea. Live from L.A. with D. McCarthy.

God, she loves coming up with a invention that no one asked for. Remember shape-ups? What is Kim Kardashian's latest product that, she would like you to buy, Dean? Oh my goodness, get out your wallet and your credit cards and $52. This can be yours. It is a face bra is how they're describing it, but it's called the skin face wrap. Let me describe it.

So imagine you've ever seen, you know, like, in the movies when someone has like a Facebook, they wrap their head in that, like, bond, in that, like, compression. Yeah. It's like an old-timey movie when someone's been to the dentist and they've got a sore tooth, right? Precisely, yes. And it's made on that same material. that you wear after you've had

life of suction or something to keep it all in together. Well, she's made it for your head. It is the Kim Kay beige. It's the same color as all of her cars and her house and her hallway and her furniture. But this is for your face.

Now, what it does is basically it apparently is infused with collagen, don't know how. Oh, my God. Basically types of it bright and keeps everything up and tight. I don't, you know, a lot of surgeons like that doesn't make any sense.

Although it is something that people do wear after facelifts. Surgeries. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But she's saying where this facelifts, face bra thing daily. Isn't it to bed, I guess?

Yeah. I'm kind of into it. Are you? Yeah, I feel like... Yeah, do you like it as well, Dean? Kind of. It's a scam. Guys, it's a scam.

I don't know. I don't know, is it? It's infused with collagen. It's all about... It's the biggest load of BS I've ever heard. It's all about draining your lymphatic system around your jaw. Oh, Christ, you've been radicalized.

And then you whack the face, brire on and then you go for your sleep, you're good to go. Why do you think Dean looks so good? He's got a bra for every body bit. Everybody part. I've got one from my wrist, my arms, everything, you name it. I'm just like a mummy. It looks like a walking mummy.

Well, well. We laugh now. We last now. But let me tell you, Kim Kay, she's always a couple of steps ahead if you think about it. Yeah, until she's not. She went to court for those sketches, shape-ups that she promoted. She didn't invent those, though. She just did a promotion.

She said they were shoes that you wear and they had a curvy soul on them. She said if you wear these, you'll get a bum like mine. Turns out it was all BS. Total crap. It was all absolute BS. Anyway. Hey, but the rest of her stuff I will vouch. Skims do have some good stuff. Oh, I wear skims undies.

Yeah. I agree. It is bloody comfortable. I don't know. I'll be wearing skims undies on my face but that's the T with Dean McCarthy. He's our Hollywood correspondent. The ZDM Podcast Network. I'm hoping this next segment will be a bit of a motivational Overcoming the Odds conversation and it is

but I'm interested in what other stories we get there's a story in the news today about a woman in Hamilton who broke her back when she was a child she broke her back on school camp when she was nine and she was told that she would never be able to run again that that was her future she would walk she wasn't paralysed but that she'd never be able to run Fast forward to 2025

And she's just this I think this weekend She's about to run her first half marathon I mean It inspires me people running a half marathon Full Stop Yeah Regardless of the rest of it right

Her name's Melanie Jameson She's 31 And she's doing the Rottura Run the Forest And it didn't just happen She wasn't like I think these doctors are wrong And just started running

She had to do years of core strengthening and like gradual treadmill jogging. But I reckon it was one of those things where like you're told that you can't do something. So it's extra motivating. I'm going to do it anyway. It's like negative reinforcement. You know you're kind of describing literally my story. That's what I was going to ask you.

You broke your back. Yeah. When I was 16, broke it in a couple of places in my lower lumbus spine playing sport. And I got told by. doctors that I would never play contact sport again. Yeah. And a year and a half later, I was playing contact sport. Your story's a little bit different, though, because you broke your back and then you

chose never to run again. What do you mean? What? I mean, I do hate running now. Yeah, that's the joke I was getting to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, but not then. I went back playing sport a year and a half later.

How did you break your back? I collided with someone. Yeah, it was pretty nasty. in sport. In sport, playing sport. Yeah, no, not just in general. Not like coming around a corner at Westfield. And to be honest, same as this girl.

I did like intense core strengthening physio for, yeah, two years. Crazy. To be able to play sport again, yeah. Well, you would, you know, like. Oh, you do it, yeah. Especially if you're young and you're like, got the rest of my life. I can't be in, I can't have debilitating back pain for the rest of my life. I have to do these exercises kind of thing.

Yeah, it was pretty full on. But for someone who was told they would never run to now turn around and be running a half marathon. Good on it. And this is the thing, once you run a half marathon, you'll get the bug and you'll do a full marathon. So it's incredible. I've never broken my back and I've never run a half marathon.

I've broken my back and I never want to run a full marathon. Or half for that matter. Let's take some calls from other people this afternoon who have beat the odds. Like, I don't know, were you told that you had something? Six months to live six years ago. Did you go bankrupt and now you are a millionaire? Are you the sole survivor of a fiery plane crash or something? Did you win the lotto?

Is that defying the odds? Yeah, because the odds aren't good. Yeah, okay, yeah. The odds are pretty bad. Sure, okay, yeah. Yeah. I want to talk to somebody who won't leto. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. I mean, who knows? We probably won't get them because there's not many winners. No, there's not. That's what will make these. call so good if we do get them. Defying the odds. Yeah. You interpret it how you want. If you think you beat the odds, we'd love to hear from you.

It's ZAM's Bree and Clint Podcast. This is working, Bree. These stories are inspirational. Someone said after finding out he had a brain tumor, my dad was given a 5% chance of surviving. 20 plus years later, he's still going strong. That's incredible. Hell yeah. That's amazing. Someone else said my daughter beat the odds. She was paralyzed from a crash. but she can walk with AIDS, but she will ditch the AIDS one day. Good on her. Yeah, that's awesome. You show those doctors.

Let's go to Mel. Hi, Mel. Hi, Mel. Hi. Did you beat the odds, Mel? I did. Yeah, I was 16 and on a car accident. And that night I was fine, went home, woke up the next morning, couldn't move.

And, yeah, what it was was I'd torn the muscles between the vertebra and my neck. Oh, the vertebrae. Yeah. Yeah, the vertebrae were resting on my. spinal cord. And yeah, I went to, when I went to physio, she said she'd only seen that injury twice in her life, no prayer. One of them, the person was dead, the other one that were paralysed from the neck down.

Wow. How long was the recovery? It wasn't actually that long, considering probably about six months all up, but it was just like a neck brace and intense physio. I love that you had a car crash, you were paralysed so you went to the physio. Go to the hospital, Mel. Yeah, well, mum kind of got me up the next morning and kind of got me to the doctor

And he's like, um Oh, Mel, you're bloody over-exaggerating again I'll just take you down to the GP He'll sort you out I'll get the essential walls on that Exactly like my mother Thanks, Mel We're asking about people who beat the odds

Someone said, I did I beat all my other cousins To be the only granddaughter in my nunna's will I love that for you That's great I wonder how they did it. Yeah. Like, I need to know.

How did you do it? I reckon you get alongside Nona. You agree with all their opinions, even if they're a bit controversial, dated or racist, whilst at the same time, subtly bagging out all your other cousins. Yeah. Just little jibes and planting the seed, you know?

I put in so much groundwork with my Nonna. And what'd you get? Nothing. I spent countless hours cooking with her, learning the ropes, being interested, which I mean... And all you got was the stupid ability to cook and a plethora of wonderful recipes and memories. From the old country, you know, that's all I got.

God damn it. Hope's here. Hi, Hope. Hi, Hope. Hi, guys. How you doing? You have the perfect name for this, but we're asking, who beat the odds? I do, actually, and that's why I have that name, Bree. So you're off. I didn't, yeah.

I have been beating the odds since way back. Yeah. because my dad was told he was feral and would never have children. Oh my God. Wait, does that make you an accident, Hope? Don't say that. She's a miracle. A blessing.

A blessing. Sorry, that's the word for it. You're a blessing. She's a miracle, a blessing. Yeah, yeah. You're a wonderful accident. And that's actually, yeah, why my parents called me hope. Because that was like they gave them hope.

This might be too personal to ask. Do you have any siblings or just you? I have siblings that they have a different father. Gotcha, okay. Which makes you the miracle. Make sure they remember that, eh? Every time they're like... Yeah, I make sure that they know that all the time.

Remember, I get you all. They're like, I got my driver's license. I'm engaged and you're like, so I'm a literal miracle. I literally have been beating the odds since way back. Since birth, since conception. Your dad literally is sterile, but for some reason... Yeah. And of course, you lead to the question of like...

Yeah, that's where I'm going. Oh. Spitting image. We look, I do think like there's no question there. I look like all his side of the family. Okay, okay, good. It's legit. As long as you're sure.

A bit rough to ask your dad for an opportunity test day. Well, you know. He's been through enough. Rougher on your mum. Thanks, Hope. Wonderful story of beating the odds. Thank you. Thank you.

A few more for you guys. Someone texted and said, I beat the odds. I'm a solid five and I married an eight. That's good. Can we pause? Should you refer to your partner as an eight? Or should you just say 10? No, I like it.

I like the honesty. Because let's be real. Most normies, us normies, we're not tens. Yeah, but shouldn't you just say it for your partner? Shouldn't you just be like, I married a 10? So you should lie. No. It just feels dangerous.

It feels dangerous. Eight's very complimentary, but then they're like, so what brought my score down? What was it? At least. Is it my nose? I've got, I've got some. split feelings about this because at least if someone said, like, you know, for you, if your wife was like, I think you're a 10, would you believe it?

No. Exactly. No. But if she goes, you're a 7. But if she turned around and said, what am I? I go 10. And she'd go, you're lying. And I'd say, I'm not.

In her mind, she would go, he's lying, but I'll just move on. He's lying, but bless him. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Yeah. But I don't have to lie because my wife is a 10, so. Good save.

It's ZM's Brean Clint podcast. That's New Chappell Rhone on ZM, Brean Clint. Someone texted in and said it sounds like The Cause. God, I love The Cause. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where was the last time The Cause toured to New Zealand? Oh, I don't know. Let me have a look.

I don't know. Come on, leave me breathless. Does Ella know who these people are? I know they're just still touring. Yeah, I definitely know they're still touring. Does Ella know who the cause are? Ella, our Gen Z. Hey.

Do you know the cause? No, but is this them? This is them, yeah. Whoa, well. Three Irish sisters and their brother. Cool. Bangers. They were here in 2023.

Did we miss the big cause concert? We missed the cause. Did you see her? opened for them? Who? Natalie and Brulia. I'm so angry at myself. Juliet, that's us on a plate.

I'm so angry. How did we miss that? I'm fuming. You don't know them. That sucks. You don't know them. Do you know Natalie and Brulia? Natalie and Brulia?

That's Shakira. Far out. Is that a song? This is the generational divide that we're faced with every day. The song torn? It's also the reason for the next game, which is let's get. Classical. Us two millennials.

She knows it. We'll be taking on Ella, our Gin Z, in a game of guessing. Oh, shit. Sorry. In a game where we guessed songs that have been turned classical. That one was on purpose, but... Yeah, it was quite loud. Yeah, yeah.

Pick a team, team Ella, team bring close. Oh, yes. People need to text through. You can either text Brian Clint to 96696. if you back us in for the win, or text Ella to 9696.96, or text the cause if you want to hear a cause song on ZM. Great idea. Yeah. 100 texts, where you play the cause.

That is the deal. That's the deal. That's a refutable with our management where they're like, why the hell are you guys playing the cause on Zid M? You can't deny 100 texts. You have to give people what they want. Play ZDM's Brie and Clint. Good news. Well, no, bad news.

Well, good news for some people. We've definitely not hit the tipping points to be able to play the cause on ZDM. There's not enough, not enough. There's some passion for it. There's not a level of passion that requires us to play the cause. Play them a little bit of leave me breathless just to get people's, you know, get something on the palate. Yeah, fair enough.

You know? Just to whet the whistles. Might entice people. So good. A few texts from big cause fans spelling at C-A-U-S-E. Play the cause. Yeah, come on, if this blows your skirt up, text the cause to 9-6-9-6. We'll play it after this game if we get enough.

Only if we get enough. We're not going to fudge this thing. Let's get classical. Cause. It's the game where we try and guess pop songs, reimagined. and classical style, and the matchup as Brie and I, the Millennials, against the Gen Z Ella. Well, hello.

Who didn't know who Natalie and Brulia was? No, I know. Torn. How does it go? Torn, damn it. That one? I'm all out of face. Oh, there it is.

Oh, you had it. That had a whiff of Natalie and Brulia about it. A tiny whiff. Natalie Brulia in the other room. treat. You can stick around for more later. Claudia, should we run this? Should we get into this? Yeah, let's jump straight in. So you guys know the rules. Buzz in with your name

if you know it. It is a pop song turned classical and you guys need to tell me the artist and the name of the song. First time, two points wins. Are we ready? Ready. Ready. Deep breaths, everyone. Here's your first song. Ella. Ella.

Quickly. Oh, no, come on. You have way more time than that. Say it if you know it. Bree. That is, that is. Say it before her if you want it. Yeah, go on.

You've been me. You've distracted me now. That is Chapel Rhone. Good luck, babe. Sure is. I was getting there, you idiots. This is just diabolical. Hey, Claudia was the one that called it, not us.

You're distracted me. I want silence when I'm thinking. Okay, well, you can't have that. It's like the cauldron of sports. Do you think that rugby players ask the crowd to be quiet when they try and do some rugby? Tennis players do. Hey, give her what she wants. We want to win fair and square.

Golf players do too. Okay, that is one point for Team Bruin. Clint here is another song. Ella! Ella, quickly. I love you. I'm sorry, Gracie Abrams. It is.

Believe it or not, I actually had that one. I felt like you did. It's one in a long time, yeah. Well done, Ella. We have a game on our hands, guys. We sure do. This is for the win. Timebreaker.

I love you. I hope it's the cause. I'll be nowhere if it is. Wait, give me some cool songs before we go on to this. I can say it's not the core. No, that's our advantage. I demand the cause be in it next week. It's not the cause, but it could be Natalie and Brulia.

Can we do exclusively cause next week? Yeah, why not? Yeah, okay. Here's the last song. Oh, oh, Ella! Ella. Oh, um, the silence. Men child, Sabrina Carpenter.

She's got it. Well done. I will say there was quite a big pause in between. No, two for two, baby. You were lucky on that last one. Let's double whimmies, babe. Did you say pause or cause? I said the cause, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Chenet, you correctly picked Ella and you've got $50 KFC chicken dollars coming your way. Well, awesome. Thank you, thanks, Ella. Oh, you're all good. Hey, Chenay, you could be called Cheye. Okay, thanks, Ella. Oh, wow. Chenet, you wouldn't believe this. We asked for 100 messages requesting the cause on ZM and we've made it to 99.

So it all rests with you. Do you want to hear the cause or do you not? A hundred percent. Yes, Shanaie! Sorry, Shia, yay! Yay Shaday! We've got to do it then. Here it is.

The greatest Irish foursome since you two. God. I had a pretty good one in my 20s, but... You're on Z-M with Brian Clint. That's Brie and Clint podcast. Go on, go on. That's the cause on by popular demand. They were hot too.

God, they were hot. Three of them were hot and one of them was the brother. No, three of them were hot and then there was the, damn it. Oh, no. Ella, that was your first cause experience. How did you enjoy it? That was a vibe, definitely. I just want to ask though, was the brother like the equivalent of Kevin Jonas?

Yeah. Okay, cool. Yeah, he was the Kevin Jonas of the band. No, you can't take, like, you're obviously going to say that. Yeah. What? They were all valuable members. No, no, no.

I'm not saying he was worthless. He's the musician in the band. He was very, very important. Yeah. But Ella's talking on aesthetics. So the others weren't musicians? They were they singing. They were doing harmonies.

Didn't they all play the violin? Did they? Oh, did that? One violin? They all shared one. I'm pretty sure at least one of them played the violin incredible. well. Why don't we use our good friend Google and us? They were all siblings, though.

They were all in the same family. Ella, do you know what their surname was? Um, the cause? Core, yeah. Who in the cause played the violin? I could be, definitely... I hope it was Jim, the brother. In the band, the Cores, the violinist was Sharon CORE.

I am. I knew there was one of them that played the violin. She's a core member then. She's a core member of the Cors. She also played keyboards and she provided backing vocals. Core, blimey. God, she really did it all.

What a core member. Brian Clint, we're back after this. Yeah, no, sorry. Yeah, try and chime in, go. I really love listening to the cause because they're cool. Well, Ella's dedicated to the cause, so. That was good.

Zidium is dead as Branclent. We've been talking a little bit on this show about how I can't cook, but how I'd like to cook, and you've challenged me to cook at least once a week. Yeah, I said once a week, I think that's a reasonable. goal. Yeah, yeah. And I'd love to get to that.

I'd love to have the confidence to do it. Don't be a stereotype. No, exactly right. Break the mold. I said, I'd love some recipe suggestions. And today I got a text from your mother, Mama Di. Oh, here we go. Quite a good text to receive.

It read like this. Clint, here's an amazing recipe that's in an Italian nona recipe book. All I can say is, if you make this, you'll probably have another baby, even though you've had the snap. Don't use anchovies unless you like them. What the hell, bum? What, Brianna, it's true. Why are you sending those type of messages to Clint?

Well, it's true. I can't get across how good this recipe is. Did it work on you? Well, yeah, well, that would be a miracle, wouldn't it now? If Dad cooked this for you, Mom, would your panties drop? Oh, Brianna, do you really want me to answer to that? Not really. Let's move swiftly along. The recipe is for a chicken catchetory, and we don't need to go into too many details,

but I've just forwarded it to Brie. Bree, you kind of have a fair understanding of my level of cooking capabilities. Does this look like a dish that I could nail first time? Absolutely not. I've had this actual, I've had this recipe, I've had this dish. I've made it. Mum, this is too advanced for Clint. We need to go back a few steps.

No, it's not. I am backing him 100%. And if he doesn't video this while he's cooking it. Mom, he needs a recipe to cook sausages on the barbecue. Hey, no, that's my one strong suit. Thank you very much. Di, the issue here is I have to nail it. Because if I'm going to take over the cooking responsibilities for the family,

for the night. They're obviously going to expect dinner. Yeah. They're going to expect dinner on time, on the table, and if my chicken cacciatore is a flop, then, you know? It's big trouble. And I don't think you'll get another chance from his wife, Lucy, mum. She won't, she won't put up with this for, yeah.

I am telling you that it's a fact of just cutting a chicken in quarters and of browning it off and then mixing through the other ingredients and putting it in the oven. If Clint can't do that, I'll eat my hat. You won't be eating the chicken cacciatore that Clint's cooking. I appreciate the faith in me. I really do. But Bree's right.

We need to have a game plan about this guys. And my wife, Lucy, is not screaming out for me to take over the cooking. She's really not. If anything, she's anti me picking up more of the cooking responsibilities. Well, maybe you better not cook it because I think it'll be a game change. and she'll end up giving you the cooking duties. Oh, God. You're really talking it up, aren't you, mom?

It's really good. This is going to get people hungry and excited. Is this a secret family recipe, or can we put this on our Instagram story, Dai? Oh, well, it is a secret family recipe, but you're allowed to because it's in the Rustic Nonna's book. You know where this came from? So, obviously, where I'm from, Stanthorpe,

it's all Italians that migrated to Australia in the 50s and so someone has gone around to all of the nunas in the town of Stanthorpe and asked for their best recipes and then they made a cookbook. Oh like that Vince Vaughn movie? Pretty much. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay, well with your permission, we are going to put that on an Instagram story now if anybody would like to attempt it. Chicken cacciatore. And I will keep this in my back pocket. I'm going to do a few more entry-level dishes. Bree sent me a one-dish chicken. Norzo thingy that I'm going to give a go this weekend.

But I'll work up to it, Dye. I'll work up to it. Yeah, well, I reckon you could do it in a heartbeat. What have I cooked it for you next time you're over? I'm just going to say next time I come over, it's a deal. Yeah, all right. As long as you give me a heap of wine beforehand, because then anything will taste. Oh, okay, no, look.

Well, we're double the panties if that's the case. Yeah, I was going to say, after all that panty chat, I don't think that's a good idea. Dead Am's Brie and Clint. There's one thing I really enjoy, and that's a sexy voice. They're quite rare, in my opinion. Very rare, I would say. But yesterday we were talking about, I mean, very famous actor Liam Neeson, iconic voice. Very much so, yeah.

Especially from that one scene and taken. If you don't know who Liam Neeson is, you definitely still would have heard this. I don't know who you are I don't know what you want If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money But what I do have Are a very particular set of skills

Skills I have acquired over a very long career Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you If you let my daughter go now That'll be the end of it I will not look for you I will not pursue you But if you don't I will look for you

I will find you and I will kill you Oh come and use those skills on me Liam Am I right? It's not even meant to be a sexy scene It's not meant to be And a lot of people might listen to that

And go oh it's not sexy Because of the nature and the content But a lot of people would listen to it and go You go get him daddy Yeah It's hot But the clip we played yesterday made me realize just how hot and sexy his voice is.

So it was the clip, see if we can find that one quickly, Claudia. It was the clip of Liam Neeson explaining what he does to stop himself from laughing when he's delivering a scene where he needs to be deadpan. Because your character in this is quite serious, but the film's quite slaps there. How do you stop yourself from just bursting out laughing? Do you have a way of doing that?

I think of my dad and mother. Don't look what he's done. What? Oh my God, I'm so sorry, I don't have to be a lot. It's not funny. No, it's not funny. Sorry. I'm going to be serious.

Can I say what a treat it is having Liam Neeson's voice in headphones? Oh, it's so nice. If you're not listening to this in a good set of headphones right now, you're missing out. It's lovely. Like, it's so soothing. He should do one of those... ASMRs. Yeah, those sleep...

Oh, yeah. Sleep tapes, you know where the celebrities record. It does ASMR me, though. It scratches my brain. A couple more, Liam Neeson? Yeah, I'd love a couple more. We asked Claudia for the most sexy Liam Neesons she could find. Here's Star Wars Liam Neeson.

The first time, Ewe and McGregor and I had to draw her lightsabers. I remember we both made the sound at the exact same time. It hurt his throat to talk like that. Here's French Liam Neeson. I knew Luke Besant, the French director-producer, was a member of the jury. I thought, oh, I'd love to get a chance to pull him. aside, you know. Is he Irish? Is he Irish? He's Irish. He's Irish, eh? Yeah, Northern Ireland. Ah, he's got a Northern Irish accent. Have we got any more? We've got Liam Neeson narrating.

It was one of those Tuesday afternoons in summer when you wonder if the earth has stopped revolving. The telephone on my desk had the air of something that knows it's been watched. It just reeks of masculinity. Sounds like he's going to read one of those spicy eccatar novels there, doesn't it? Give that to me. Hell yeah. Just a sexy voice, I think. This is a big ask, especially when we've set the bar so high. But we want to go on a search for New Zealand's sexiest voice. I want to find him. They're out there, the sexy voices of the country.

Are you a raspy, gravelly female voice? Are you a deep baritone male voice? Or do you just have an accent that drives people bonkers when you speak? Yeah, do you get told or have you been told that you have a sexy voice? would like to put your voice on the radio this afternoon. Yeah, don't be shy, because just remember, we can't see you. No, we'll have our eyes closed. And we want you to not be humble right now.

If you think you've got it, we want you to call. Yeah, yeah. You can't text for this one. 0800 dial Z-M. We need the sexiest voices we can find to call through. The ZM Podcast Network. It was one of those Tuesday afternoons in summer when you wonder if the earth has stopped revolving. The telephone on my desk

had the air of something that knows it's been watched. There's such bass in his voice. I want to be taken. I want to be taken by him. I'm not going to go anywhere with that. Instead, I'm going to refocus on our quest, which is to find the sexiest voice in New Zealand. That's the... That is the plan.

You might not be... You might not be quite a Liam Neeson, but that's okay. He's Hollywood. We'll set off for just the sexest in New Zealand. A couple of early text suggestions. Someone said, guys, it's Bryn Rudkin. Oh, Bryn. Who reads the news on your radio station.

Yes, Bryn Rudkin. He does have a very good voice. He does. Someone said it's former ZM breakfast host, Grant Kiriyama. Oh, I've heard that from people before. He's got a great voice. Yeah, he does have a great voice. And someone said, guys, the sexiest voices can't call in.

They're busy hosting the show. Hey-oh. No, stop. Stop. Arse. You think we, it's us? I've never been told that before in my life. We've got three voices lined up.

Are you ready? Yeah, let's go. I'm so ready. And we need to pick sexiest out of this three. Okay, okay. So we're going in cold, and we're going to start with sexy voice. Janie. Hi, Janie.

Hi, guys. How are you? Yeah, good, thank you. Do you yet told you have a sexy voice? Look, it's been sad, but I used to do voiceovers at the BBC in London. So I'll stop. my best stop. No, Janie, say no more. I'm convinced. Can we get a little bit? I've heard all I need to hear.

Oh, yeah, ready? Yeah. A one-off, groundbreaking new drama examines the mysteries of how the pyramids were built through the eyes of those who built them. Pyramid Monday night at 9 o'clock on BBC 1. God, if I wasn't already turnt, you would have turned me. Just while you're here, I feel it'll be remiss if we didn't ask. Can we get a nothing beats a Jet 2 holiday? Can we do what, sorry? Can you give us a nothing beats a jet two holiday? Nothing beats the jet two holiday.

Oh, that's way sexy. Okay, you're obviously your first, but you're definitely our frontrunner, Jamie. Janie, is your middle name, Tina? No. Because you're going to turn her, I think. Look out. Let's go to Brad next. Brad's ready to come through.

So you've got to be hard to beat. Very hard. But Brad. Hello, Brad. Welcome to the show. Hello, mate. How you going? Oh, okay.

I see you, Brad. I've got a bit of a rural Kiwi... You get told you got a sexy voice, Brad? Yeah, I do. From time to time, especially, like... I remember one time I walked into a party, my mate was actually talking to her ZDM post on her FaceTime, and when I walked in, I started talking,

and she was like, who's that? And it was like, oh, it's my mate, Brad, and she's like, he should be on the radio. Oh, what an endorsement. I know, I know, it was pretty good. Who was the ZM host? Do you remember? It was about a year and a half ago, and I didn't ask too many questions, but...

Sounds like something Georgia Burt would say. Oh, you reckon? Yeah. She's a sucker for a hot manly voice. Yeah, yeah. Brad, can you give us, I don't know what we want out of you, but can we get some kind of silky smooth line? Like, can you give us a little bit... Tonight on the menu is...

Porterhouse steak served on my chest. Tonight on the menu at Brad Steakhouse's Poorhouse steak with a bit of garlic sauce and all the trimmings. Oh, the trimmings. Yeah, Brad, I'm not going to live. Very nice. Thank you, Brad.

Finally, Jeff is here. Hi, Jeff. Hi, good afternoon. How's it going on? I was kind of quietly hoping for him to come through and just go, my name of Jeff. But he didn't. No, this is hot, Jeff.

We can do that. No, no, no, no. Holy shitballs, Jeff. What the hell? Is that your real voice? Are you putting that on? No, that's pretty much my real voice. What is going on?

That's AI. Can we get a little bit of, tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you from? How old are you? What do you do for work? Yeah, the old South Orleans, down the swing.

Believe it or not, I've worked on the phone once or twice and being told that I should do a podcast or at least read books for people. So do that too. Oh, damn, Jeff. got a gift. You have a gift. I think he already knows that. Jeff, could you give us something specifically for Brie?

Could you imagine you're looking into her eyes and just comment on them for us? I'll take inspiration from Liam Neeson and go on the lines of, it was a lovely sunny October afternoon as the sun dappled upon the skin and became bronze. It only took a moment for your breath, and I'll stop there. Jeff, I think you just put a baby in me Our producer Claudia has gone tomato red She's really a fluster I think you just
