Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. ZM, Brie and Clint. Kia ora everybody, good afternoon and welcome to the Brie and Clint show. Hello guys, happy Thursday. Does everybody get to go into work late tomorrow because the All Blacks are on on a Friday morning? What time is the game on tomorrow? 8am. So what time would it finish?
Starting point is 00:00:26 Probably like 9.30? Yeah, 9.30, 10ish. Can we go in late tomorrow? I'd say so. I mean, it literally doesn't affect us, but yeah. I'm thinking of everybody else here. Yeah, I think so. Or can we get it on like those screens over the motorways or something?
Starting point is 00:00:41 People who are stuck in traffic to watch the game. I don't think that's safe. Could you put your phone, you know where the Speedo is on your car, could you bring up the app and put it in there so you just look through your steering wheel and you can see the game while you're driving to work? Yeah, that's safer. Yeah, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Good to know. Speaking of that, my partner's new car, which is like a second-hand car, but it still has a CD player in it. Oh, yeah. And I found this old Beyonce CD that was from my old car that had a CD player. And I opened it up and the CD was missing. But the other CD, which I think is like the DVD version, was still in there.
Starting point is 00:01:22 Yeah. And I was like, I'll pop this in and see what happens. The DVD. Yeah. And I was like, I'll pop this in and see what happens. The DVD. Yeah, so I popped the DVD in, in this 2016 car. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, up on the screen, it starts playing videos. Get off the grass. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Your partner's car has a DVD player inside it. Yeah. That's awesome. I was like, is that playing videos? And then you can just sit there and watch it. I mean, not save because you're driving. Well, good for the passenger though. Great for the passenger.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Just the driver has to practice some self-control. Don't put anything interesting on. Yeah. I don't think I've ever had a car that has a DVD player in it, but I was like, I've made it. I mean, well, it's my partner's car, but not, you know. Maybe we can watch the All Blacks in the car on the way to work tomorrow. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:02:05 Could be done. Hey, cash up for grabs at four o'clock. The $25,000 cash catch up second to last day. So we'll give away some money there. But let's get into a round of tradie versus lady next. $50 cash up for grabs. If you want to play, give us a call now. 0800 dial ZM.

Starting point is 00:02:35 currently that score sits at the Tradies on 83, the Ladies on 90. Very little slight gain for the Tradies this week. It's been a pretty good week for them. And last week, end of last week, they were quite good too. Okay, let's see if it'll continue. We'll go to our lady first.

Starting point is 00:03:10 Were they free? Is that why you got 15? They were free. Yeah. What was your favourite piercing you got? I've still got it in my septum. Oh, yeah. That one would have hurt.
Starting point is 00:03:20 So you got 15? That was the least painful. Really? You got 15 all at once. How many of those 15 are still pierced? Two. Two? Whoa.

Starting point is 00:04:00 Yeah. It's a good one. Put that in your Tinder bio. Ben, do you know how many pieces the Titanic Lego set is? I don't know. It might be roughly about, I don't know if it's 10 or 7-ish. Wow. It's about the same as the Falcon.

Starting point is 00:06:30 Nice work. Thank you. Well done. Ladies, go ahead again. Bree and Clint. Please welcome to the studio right now, Olympic gold medalist, Rugby World Cup winner,
Starting point is 00:06:41 World Sevens titleist, best-selling author, the scuxist player in all of counties Manukau and Natalie Portman's mate. It's our friend Ruby Toohey. Whoa You forgot all round good
Starting point is 00:06:55 bitch. Oh yeah I forgot that bit There's some pretty there's a lot of skuxers out there in counties so that was a big call There's more stuff you could have mentioned but it just you know would go on a bit too long, but there's so many things that you could mention when talking about Ruby Tooey. How's it going, Rubes? Good to see you. I'm so happy to be in the studio
Starting point is 00:07:12 finally. Yeah! When did you get back? Because you've been all over the place. I just started my contract back up, I think, last month. I'm back being a professional Black Fern in New Zealand after basically a year off, just ticking boxes I've always wanted to do and travelling the world, growing the game and writing a book.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Writing another book. Sorry. Another book. Because that's what you're here to talk about today. You're already a bestselling author for your memoir about yourself. But this one's about Little Ruby. You've written a kid's book. It's really funny.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Like when you guys write your memoir, it's a whole thing. You've got to talk to friends and families and all this stuff, but a really serious thing. But this beauty, Little Ruby and Friends, it was so much fun. Every single character in there is a real-life best friend of mine. The illustrator is a best friend of mine. Like, it was so much fun. How do they feel about being put in the book? Did anyone feel like they got a raw deal?
Starting point is 00:08:00 I will have to say, so I'm sorry to out you like this, but Amy said I was strawberry blonde and we went a bit, we went like real hard on the colour. She's full ginge. But she's a legend, she's a hero, she wears it. But that was really cool. We actually just were all chatting in a group yesterday about, I was like
Starting point is 00:08:17 I've got a big media day, is there anything you don't want me to say or are you all good with everything? And they were like no, tag us up, like Lashco. Jess is one of my best, best friends. Her daughter's my goddaughter. Like they've all basically got kids. And so, you know, this is kind of for our kids' kids. Is that their Christmas present this year or?
Starting point is 00:08:35 Mate, Christmas, birthday. Signed copy. Every single year, my goddaughter, Andy, is probably getting this book. The book is called Little Ruby and Friends. And this, for me, is the ultimate endorsement. That is my daughter Tui's favourite book. No!
Starting point is 00:08:49 She absolutely loves it to the point that we are not allowed to read her anything other than Little Ruby and Friends. And at first I thought it was because her name is Tui, Ruby Tui. It doesn't say Tui anywhere in this book. The girl in this book is Little Ruby. She loves the book. Oh, that's so cool, Clint, because I remember back in the day,
Starting point is 00:09:07 like you've been a champion of women's rugby for ages. We brought in that little top for Tui, the Black Friends top. So it's so cool to see she's still repping it, still supporting it.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Writing the memo, I was like, man, like chatting to Alan Unwin, the publishers, like really wanted to give something back to the kids because it's the kids who it doesn't matter
Starting point is 00:09:23 our gender, it doesn't matter our age, it doesn't matter anything. They just love us. Like little boys, the kids who it doesn't matter our gender it doesn't matter our age doesn't matter anything they just love us like little boys little girls it doesn't matter they're just the ultimate fan so this is absolute dedication to all our young fans out there including Tui. I don't know how much of an endorsement this is but I'm 33 and it's my favorite book too so you know I think it's for all ages. Brie likes a book with pictures. I love a picture book I've got a very small concentration. The criticism of books in the past has been, ugh, too many words.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Not enough pictures. My first book, you didn't get it. That's why I had to write this one. They cover some topics in there that kids' books normally don't touch on, which I really love. It goes into friendship, teamwork, even some mental health stuff. Is that what you really kind of wanted to cover in a kid's book?
Starting point is 00:10:06 Absolutely, I think. There's all these issues in our life as adults and kids that are extremely complex. And I was having a conversation with one of my really good friends on the Seven Series, and she was adopted. And she always said, you know, which is a very complex issue, and she always said, I understood it from a young age, I totally knew it, I embrace it, I love it.
Starting point is 00:10:24 And I said, how did your parents go about that conversation? And she said her mum, when she was three years old, read her a kid's book. And from that day forth, she just got it. And then it hit me. I love talking about mental health, but it's only until I can explain the concepts in a kid's book that they're simple enough for us to grasp as young people and then take that on in our lives. So I've always wanted to do this, but I just had to get it out of my brain.
Starting point is 00:10:47 It is a beautiful way of communicating with young people. And you're right. It's how you get the messages across to them. So good on you for doing it. Before we go, though, I have to do something. Years ago when you called me when I was in lockup in quarantine, we were going on about the Olympic medal and I was like, nah, it's legit.
Starting point is 00:11:01 It gives me a sore neck. And you guys ripped into me. And it's very fitting that Bree this week is very sore and I just want to show you how heavy it really is three years later mate three years later I kept my promise and I want you to imagine wearing that
Starting point is 00:11:16 along a parade signing taking selfies for five hours straight and you pass that over clip wow the life of an Olympic gold medalist is hard I've never held one I can just stand up with it. God, it's heavy. You can do your rehab with it.
Starting point is 00:11:27 You can put this on, and this is the medal for the girl who went to F45 two days in a row. Medal presentation ceremony. Thank you. I'd like to thank Ruby Toohey for always supporting me, and I just can't believe that, you know, finally all that hard work, those two days have finally paid off and uh this one's for you guys what a moment the book's out now it's called little ruby and friends it's so good for little kids congratulations ruby toey this is awesome um say hi to natalie portman from
Starting point is 00:11:59 us will you i will if you give to a big hug from me Thank you guys We love you Wanted to discuss A post I saw On a council's page It was actually on X Which used to be Twitter Yeah Change the name back It's too confusing
Starting point is 00:12:18 It's so confusing And I feel like the name X You just automatically think of Porn Triple XL Oh yeah, whoops Which is, yeah I mean that's what I was getting at Oh yeah I feel like the name X, you just automatically think of- Porn. Triple XL. Oh, yeah. Whoops.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Which is, yeah, I mean, that's what I was getting at. Oh, yeah. XXX. XXX. Yeah. This council page is from Worcestershire County Council over in the UK. Yeah. And they had to do an announcement this week because they were doing some maintenance on one of their streets.
Starting point is 00:12:53 I believe it's a lane, actually, if we're getting into logistics. They need to do an announcement on how to say Worcestershire. That's what they should be focusing on. Worchester? I don't know. Worchestershire? Nobody knows. This is where the sauce comes from, isn't it? Oh, you mean Worcestershire.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah. Worchestershire. So is that how you say the place? No, this is comes from, isn't it? Oh, you mean Worcestershire. Yeah. Worcestershire. So is that how you say the place? No, this is spelt differently. Is it? Yeah. This is Worcestershire. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Which is, yeah, Worcestershire, I can say. Worcestershire. It could be Worcestershire, but it's spelt different. Anyway, it doesn't matter. They're not going to hear it. Nothing to do with that, yeah. It's nothing to do with that name. It's to do with the name of a lane within this county.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Okay. That's obviously in their jurisdiction. And they're currently doing some trimming of the trees and the bushes. Yep. Have you seen this? No. I couldn't guess where it's going. On this lane.
Starting point is 00:13:42 And so they put up this post. It said, tree maintenance work today on Minj Lane. We're so immature and I don't care. There's a place in Worcestershire Council called Minge Lane. You're not allowed to have. And they're trimming the trees. They're sculpting the bush on Minge Lane. They're literally trimming trees and bushes on Minge Lane.
Starting point is 00:14:21 I hear they've got that new Brazilian council worker in there too. He's going to take it right back. He's going to take it right back, right back to ground level. He's going to cut it right back. God, don't even get me started on what they're going to do on the airfield out in Minj Lane. It's going to be a landing strip. I then was interested because I was like, that's a really funny name of a street.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Minj Lane. Minj Lane. Minge Lane. And so I've looked up a few other rude either streets, lanes, roads. And we're allowed to say them because they're street names. Exactly. So we actually can't get in trouble. These are real by the way. I haven't just made these up.
Starting point is 00:14:58 These are the rudest place names in the UK. Alright, are you ready? Yeah. Okay. It includes Butthole Lane. That's real. Yep. Fanny Field. Okay, yep.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Yep. I mean, my favourite's still Butthole Lane, I think. Really? Or Minge. I'm more of a Minge Lane. Minge Lane's pretty good. I'd rather take Butthole Lane. I mean, depends how I'm feeling.
Starting point is 00:15:25 No, no, I'd rather take. Depends. Butthole Lane is a dirt road, so you just got to be careful about that. Careful. Careful. And apparently one of the rudest places, and this is in Dorset in the UK, is Shitterton. Shitterton.
Starting point is 00:15:45 That's a real place. What are British people up to? Like, what are they doing? Apparently Shitterton had to actually change the name of Shitterton because the sign was getting stolen so much. Really? True story, yeah. What did they change it to?
Starting point is 00:16:06 Diarrhea, I think. Shit-a-stun. Bree and Clint. We need to talk about one of my favourite topics, which is, aren't it shapes? That's one of your favourite topics? It is one of my all-time favourite topics. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I could talk so long about shapes. Yeah. They are quintessentially Kiwi. Like, if you're growing up in this country, you live off shapes, Milo, roll-ups. Not roll-ups anymore. Well, used to be. Yeah, yeah. Our generation.
Starting point is 00:16:36 They've taken away one of our staples. Yeah. We're malnourished now, so we're not getting our fruit roll-ups. Bring them back. How are we meant to get our five plus a day if we don't get fruit roll-ups? It was like you were eating a whole fruit salad in those things. Exactly right. It was so healthy.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Exactly right. The reason why I want to talk about it today, though, is that I saw this article where recently, it was something to do around the AFL and NRL grand finals, and it was something to do with that, and they were running this campaign to find out Australia's favourite shape flavour. Okay, like the grand final of shapes. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:17:08 I've seen it. Australia, you got it wrong. Oh, interesting. I reckon they're way off the mark. What did they vote for? So, obviously, you know, it came down to a final and the final was between barbecue and chicken crimpy. Okay. The winner.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Australia's favourite shape. Of the Australian favourite shape flavour, chicken crimpy. Okay. Congratulations, chicken crimpy. No. What's wrong with chicken crimpy? This is like when Penrith won. They've got it wrong. No. What's wrong with Chicken Crimpy? This is like when Penrith won. They've got it wrong.
Starting point is 00:17:48 They've got it wrong. I like Chicken Crimpy. Don't get me wrong and don't come for me if you are a Chicken Crimpy fan. It's not that I don't like Chicken Crimpy. I do. But it's not the best. Isn't it? No, it's the one you get when they don't have the other two best flavours.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Yeah, Claudia, she's nodding her head as well. Claudia, you're in agreeance? Yeah, not even third best. Maybe fourth at a push. Oh, we've got a chicken. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Is the vegan on the show the chicken crimpy fan? Yeah, but surprise, it's not actually chicken.
Starting point is 00:18:19 It's just the flavouring. Isn't it? Can you check? It's my favourite. No, well, let's just not check. Let's not check. The thing that shooketh me today, though, is when we realised Clinton Roberts,
Starting point is 00:18:31 our very own Clint Roberts from the Brian Clint Show, hasn't even tasted barely any flavours or shapes. He said, I never had those growing up. I've never been a big shapes fan. I'm not a big shapes guy. That shook me to my core because I feel like being from New Zealand, Shapes are like the pride and joy. Must have missed me.
Starting point is 00:18:53 How did it miss you? Where the hell were you? I don't know. Eating two-minute noodles? Mate, you've been missing out. I do have a favourite flavour. Have you tasted all the flavours? No.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Well, technically you can't have a favourite, but I'd like to, I do have a favourite flavour. Have you tasted all the flavours? No. Well, technically you can't have a favourite, but I'd like to know... Okay, my favourite flavour. Or the only one you've tasted. My favourite flavour. No, I've had chicken crimpy as well. Okay. The green one, pizza.
Starting point is 00:19:16 He's doing this on purpose now. That is barbecue. Wait, what colour's the pizza one? They're purple. Oh, okay. Well, that should be green. Purple pizza? No, purple. Oh, okay. Well, that should be green. Purple pizza? No, that's not a thing.
Starting point is 00:19:28 God, you can tell that you had just never been immersed in the shapes world. No, it really passed me by. People fiend off them, but it just kind of, oh, yeah, cool. Producer Claude has so gallantly went down and got some shape flavours. You're going to try all four now and you'll decide. Okay, all right. So you open these ones here. So we're going with Chicken Crumpy.
Starting point is 00:19:47 This is a live taste test, and this is good for all the other people listening who aren't familiar with how shapes taste as well. Yeah, you can describe it in vivid detail. I feel like you're on your own. 9696, have you not eaten many shapes? Also, 9696, a shape's your all-time favourite. Are you ready for a chicken crimpy?
Starting point is 00:20:05 Yeah, go. You taste those. I'm just going to taste them. Taste that salty goodness. That's delicious. It's chickeny. Yep. It's definitely not vegan.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Oh. Okay, now I'm going green, barbecue. I swear this used to be pizza. It never used to be pizza. 9696, Texas. Did the green ones used to be pizza? No. I thought that was the Mandela effect.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I thought so too. It's called the Mandela effect. Sorry. Barbecue. Yum. Yum. Keep them coming. Keep them coming.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Was that the green one? That was green barbecue, yum. Oh, that's the comment of the week. Now I'm doing yellow cheddar. Cheddar. We don't have all the flavours. I mean, I think you missed a beat on the cheese and bacon. Cheddar, boring.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Yeah, gotcha, gotcha. Boring, that tastes just like a regular Huntley and Palmer's. Boring. Okay, here we go, pizza. And then pizza the goat. Pizza's good. Okay. And then you have to make a decision.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Give me back the pizza. Okay, yep, got it all. Can I have the barbecue? Got it all. Oh, I love barbecue. Okay. Alright. Breaking news.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Out of those four flavours, what's your favourite? I thought the barbecue flavour was pizza flavour. I got them confused. So which is your favourite? But breaking news, the greatest shapes flavour, according to me, the shapes expert on the show, thought the barbecue flavor was pizza flavor. I got them confused. So which is your favorite? Breaking news. The greatest shapes flavor, according to me, the shapes expert on the show, barbecue. Yay.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Which is what color? Green. Thank you. Yeah. Mate, you need to get on board this. Don't let your girls grow up like you did. What, without eating shapes? Yes.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Yeah, okay. I'll be bullied in the school yard. Was I an underprivileged child? Yes. Go take these home for your daughters. If my girls are listening, I'm bringing home four open boxes of shapes tonight. Make it three. Make it two. I'm taking one.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Ellie, you want one? Okay. Alright, I'm bringing home half a box of shapes, girls. The Nelson Mandela effect. There is a university in the UK called Exeter University and they are going to offer a degree in magic. Sorry, sorry to scoff. Not like real magic.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Like I'm assuming to become a magician? No, a study of magic. In historical magic. In magic's influence on culture and... That sounds nearly as pointless as an arts degree. Doesn't it? And I can say that because I studied a Bachelor of Arts at one point and went, why am I studying this?
Starting point is 00:22:47 Yeah, yeah, yeah. It says it includes the study of dragons. Not real. Witches. Not real. And the legend of King Arthur, who I believe is the one that put the sword in the stone. Or did he pull the sword out of the stone?
Starting point is 00:23:05 Did Merlin put the sword in the stone and Arthur pulled the sword out of the stone? Wait, who was Sir Lancelot? Oh, great question. Great question. Who pulled, wait. No, save it for the study of magic. Who pulled the sword out of the rock? Yeah, stone, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:25 I think it was, yeah. I think Merlin put it in. Yeah. And I believe it says that Arthur obtained the British throne by pulling the sword. Yeah, so it was King Arthur. Yeah. What was Lancelot up to?
Starting point is 00:23:42 Yeah, where was Lancelot? Sounds like a cool guy, though. Hey, ladies, I'm Lancelot up to? Yeah, where was Lancelot? Sounds like a cool guy, though, eh? Hey, ladies, I'm Lancelot. Sir Lancelot. He wore sunglasses on his horse. What are you going to do with a degree in magic? Great question. The university says that their degree in magic
Starting point is 00:23:57 could prepare students for careers as teachers. What, making potions? Dunno. Councillors? Magic your depression away. What? Making potions? Don't know. Counselors. Magic your depression away. What? Mentors. Museum workers.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Work in libraries. This seems like a scam to me. Tourism, arts. If I ever did hear one. And the publishing industry, so you could write books about wizards. But I think we've got enough of those. Do they have a Quidditch team?
Starting point is 00:24:27 Well, surely they have one at the university if they've got a degree in magic. My question for you has nothing to do with the degree. Was your degree pointless? No. Oh, 800 dials it in. Oh, we should do that. We should. Just put that down for tomorrow, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Do you not use your degree in any way? I'm going to have to leave the studio so I can call. My question is, is magic sexy? So say you met a guy and on the weekends he had like a magic routine that he went and did it. I know someone who dates a magician. Really? Yeah. You know them?
Starting point is 00:25:03 Do I? Yeah. Okay. So are they sexy? I don't know the magician. Really? Yeah. Yeah. You know them. Do I? Yeah. Okay. So are they sexy? I don't know the magician. Yeah. I just know that they date a magician. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Yeah. And do they find them sexy? They must. They must. You personally, do you find a magician sexy? I, it depends what type of magic I think. Cutting women in half. Like the old school.
Starting point is 00:25:26 Making rabbits disappear. Like, I mean, Houdini. Yeah. Okay. He was more of an escape artist, but yeah. Magician. Magician, yeah. That counts.
Starting point is 00:25:37 He was pretty hot. Like he was, you know. Was he? A risk taker. Was he? Yeah, he's like dangerous. Okay. And what's that?
Starting point is 00:25:45 David Copperfield. No, Chris Angel. Oh, Chris Angel, yeah. Yeah, he's dark and he's mysterious. He's got a real creepy vibe to it. Yeah, no, he does. Anyway, if you're looking for what you want to do at the end of the year when you finish school, tell your parents you want to move to the UK, go to Exeter University and do a degree in magic.
Starting point is 00:26:03 They will be stoked. They'll be so excited for you. They will. Bree and Clint. Let's just talk about cheating and how you can tell if someone's cheating from seven words. Lipstick on their collar. No.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Words. Words. Babe. A woman on social media has divided the internet because she claims that if you're confronting your boyfriend, your husband, the person you're dating, and they use this sentence, these seven words, that means they're guilty. Can I just check? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Only boyfriends and husbands, not wives and girlfriends? This is, yeah, boys and husbands. That's how it works. Boyfriends and husbands. Okay. But, I mean, you beat the judge. We've got her here talking about it. So it's seven words,
Starting point is 00:26:53 and this is after you confront them asking if they've cheated. If you confront your man for cheating and he says, go ahead and believe what you want, I hate to break it to you ladies, but that man is guilty. He is guilty. If you couldn't hear it, the seven words are go ahead and believe what you want. Yeah. I would, I tend to agree. I tend to agree. You know what it is? I think it's for me when I know that I'm not guilty, like when I know that I'm in the right and I haven't done anything wrong.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Yeah, you'll die on that hill. I will die on that hill and I will fight. You will defend it to the death. And I will, yeah, I will defend, defend, defend, whereas if I'm guilty, I'll just try and get out of it. Go ahead and believe whatever you want. Yeah, just, you know. Because that flips it around.
Starting point is 00:27:43 It's almost a form of gaslighting. It's going, well, you've obviously made up your own mind. There's another thing that they might say. You've obviously made up your mind already. Exactly. So whatever I say doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what I say. Because you're convinced that I'm cheating.
Starting point is 00:27:58 You're going to believe what you want. It doesn't matter what I say. You're going to believe what you want. It's such a good one. It doesn't matter what I say. You're going to believe what you want. Whereas someone who's not cheating on you would go, Honest to God, I am not cheating.
Starting point is 00:28:11 What do I need to do to prove to you that I'm not cheating? I will do anything. Here's my phone. Look at my phone. I will do anything to you. Like, yeah, exactly. That's the difference. Because they don't want that hanging over their head.
Starting point is 00:28:21 They don't want you to believe whatever you want. The person who's not cheating wants you to realise that they're not cheating. So if they're not. Even if you've ruined the trust by accusing them of cheating, even if that's gone, they still won't want it to break up with you believing that they cheated on you if they didn't cheat. Exactly. They still want to keep their credibility.
Starting point is 00:28:42 So they will argue until the cows come home. Anyway, there it is, the their credibility. Yeah. So they will argue until the cows come home. Anyway, there it is. The seven words. Yeah. Well, you're going to believe what you want to believe. Yeah. Try and trick your partner into saying that today. I mean, if you wanted to destroy your relationship, if that's what you're looking to do, that's something you could do. Let's talk about Lady Gaga.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Los Angeles judge has ruled that Lady Gaga. A Los Angeles judge has ruled that Lady Gaga does not have to pay the $500,000 reward that she promised to get her French bulldogs back after they were kidnapped. So she shouldn't. The person who returned the dogs was the one who actually kidnapped them in the first place. Well, not quite, but yeah, close. They were involved. The woman's name is Jennifer McBride, and she returned the dogs to Lady Gaga, yes, and requested the half million dollar reward, yes.
Starting point is 00:29:39 But she also received the dogs knowing that they were stolen. So the people who shot the dog walker and took the dogs then went to this woman and said, hey, this is what we have done. We want to give you the dogs and you return them and then we'll split the reward. So yeah, she's implicated. So she obviously knows the people. Yeah, so maybe.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Surely. She would have known about it. She was involved. She was a part known about it. She was involved. She was a part of the operation. She was a part of the operation, yeah. She was part of the planning for the aftermath. Yeah, so they definitely don't deserve the reward. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:30:15 They shot someone. Yeah. Good work from Lady Gaga. She managed to get her dogs back for free. I'm sure Lady Gaga, if someone had found the dogs, like a good Samaritan, and returned them, she would have paid the reward. Can you imagine that?
Starting point is 00:30:31 Not only do you get half a million dollars, but you get to meet Lady Gaga. Yeah. And she'd probably want to be your friend after that because you brought her dogs back. I don't know what I'd be more excited about. I know which one. The half million dollars.
Starting point is 00:30:44 I'd rather be friends with Lady Gaga. If someone said you can have half a million or you'd be friends with Lady Gaga, I'll take the friendship. That's moronic. Really? Yeah. You'd be her friend?
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah. It's only half a million. Like, you know what I mean? Like, if it was two million, I'd probably have to think about it. Really? I feel like Claudia's a big Lady Gaga fan as well.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Do you feel the same way about this? She's not a fan of Lady Gaga. You don't like Lady Gaga? I like her. I'm just not. I don't listen to her. Wait, who's your favourite then? Out of all the artists? Yeah. One Direction? Don't know. Okay, what if you could be friends with all the One Direction
Starting point is 00:31:23 boys or half a million dollars? Nah, half a million. Don't meet your heroes. Imagine that. Yeah, you guys don't get along and you're like, this is a half a million dollar celebrity. It would just be weird because I'd be like, oh, my God, I love you guys. And we have nothing else to talk about.
Starting point is 00:31:38 You know what this just means? They're like, we'll pay you half a million dollars to go away. You know what it just means? Obviously, I care about friendship and you guys care about money. Either that or you're really keen on Lady Gaga. It's Lady Gaga. She's an icon. Tango, what's the plot?
Starting point is 00:31:59 Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic. Not really. But picking a movie title based on just the plot line, that she can do. Brie and Clint's What's The Plot? Our movie guessing game, which could be about to end forever. If Brie loses one more game, she said,
Starting point is 00:32:23 that's it, I'm over it, I've lost the mojo. I've lost the drive. Can it? But if you win, then we'll play on. We'll keep going. Here to give it a go and take the 50 bucks cash today is Joel. Kia ora, Joel. Hello, Joel. How's it going? Good, thank
Starting point is 00:32:40 you. What's your favourite film of all time, Joel? Tenacious B and The Pick of Destiny. What a great choice. Random choice, Joel. Very niche, I like it. He said niche! Jack Black, come on.
Starting point is 00:32:56 We are but men. Okay. Rock. Joel, your buzzer is Joel. Bree, your buzzer is Bree. The first person to give me two correct movie titles for the plot lines that I read out wins the game.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Now because we're only playing for $50, today, these are all movies about people who are poor. Alright. People living in poverty is our theme of the movies today. Best of luck to both of you.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Here we go. Good luck. Oh, don't wait for me to finish these plot lines, by the way. Yell out as soon as you think you know what it is. Movie number one. A single mother, born and bred in the boroughs of New York City, works as a cleaner in a first... Brie.
Starting point is 00:33:41 Made in Manhattan. Damn. Jennifer Lopez. Jennifer Lopez. Jennifer Lopez. Fantastic film. Yeah. Have you seen it, Joel? No, not at all.
Starting point is 00:33:52 It's quite different to the pick of destiny. I'm not surprised you haven't seen it, Joel. If your favourite movie is Tenacious. There's not many musical numbers in it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, Joel, you're still in this, but I'm going to need you to get the next one, okay? I'll do what I can.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Movies about people in this, but I'm going to need you to get the next one, okay? I'll do what I can. Movies about people in poverty number two. The people in this place, that's going to give it away if I say that, know that this area, let me rephrase it. The people know this as the city limit, a border, a boundary. It is also... Joel? Joel? Hunger Games? Hunger Games?
Starting point is 00:34:26 Hunger Games is wrong, but good guess. That makes sense. Oh, bugger. Brie, you want a free guess? Um... Dunno, I need more. The people in this area know this area as the city limit, a border, a boundary.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Brie! Diversion? Diversion is wrong. Joel, another free guess? That's a good guess, though. Um... I got nothing. Diversion. Diversion is wrong. Joel, another free guess. That's a good guess though. I got nothing. No, okay. It is also a psychological line dividing area.
Starting point is 00:34:54 It's also a psychological dividing line that separates our hero from where and who he wants to be. He's a young rapper struggling with... Brie. Brie. Get rich or die trying. Oh, great guess. No.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Such a good movie. Free guess, Joel? I've still got nothing, man. No? Okay, I'll keep going. He's a young rapper... Brie. Brie. Eight Mile.
Starting point is 00:35:20 Eight Mile's correct. It was Detroit. That was the word that I couldn't say. Detroit. If I said Detroit, I would have given it away straight away. Straight away. Oh, well, Joel, not to be. We've got 50 KFC chicken dollars for you as a consolation price. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Thanks for playing, Joel. We appreciate it. And that means it'll be back next week. It'll be back and we'll play for $100. Like we were going to get. Then we'd have to come up with a new game. And we'll be back and we'll play for $100. Like we were going to get. Then we'd have to come up with a new game. And we're too lazy. Bree and Clint. Alright
Starting point is 00:35:51 Fano, I need some help because it's a cosy live and I'm about to make one of my dumb decisions where I buy something. Right. That I think I need. In this economy. I've got no children and, you know, I just make bad decisions with my money sometimes.
Starting point is 00:36:10 I get distracted and all of a sudden I've ordered a bunch of baby goats to my house. You know, these things just happen. Is it a bunch of baby goats that you're going to order? Because you could milk those. No, but now the idea's in my mind. I would love a bunch of baby goats. You know that an urban goat?
Starting point is 00:36:27 Could you have a goat in your front yard? Yeah, I think so. You don't know, though. Yeah, I think it'd be fine. Yeah, but you don't know. I think it'd be fine. Anyway, what's the thing that you want to buy? Guys and producers, I need your input on this,
Starting point is 00:36:39 on whether or not you think this is worth spending my money on. Okay. And remember, it's a cosy live. The cosy living crisis is upon us, is here. Just do it. I had this read. Claudia, voice of reason. Claudia's like, why not?
Starting point is 00:36:56 Is it worth, so my dog, Meryl Streep, right, whom I adopted, we rescued her. We don't know what type of breed she is. We don't really know where she came from. And someone at the dog park put into my brain the other day that we should get her a dog DNA test. Yes. Ancestry.com for your dog.
Starting point is 00:37:17 An Ancestry.com. How much? So I've been doing some research. There's a number of places where you can get your dog dna tested um it ranges it ranges from like 130 to like 400 400 bucks to find out what your dog is which i need to do more research like what's what's the $400 test getting you? Is it the same as the $130 test? Get you the family tree. Get you the name of her parents. Well, you laugh, but Ancestry.com do
Starting point is 00:37:52 dog DNA testing. Who's registering their dog's DNA with Ancestry.com? No, they would just do the test to show you what breeds they are. Yeah. Yeah, but I'm just saying they have that available as a part of their service. Is it a good idea?
Starting point is 00:38:07 Should I get my rescue dog, Meryl Streep, tested so I know what breeds she is? I think it's a great idea. Yeah, I love it. I think it's not a waste of money and I can get the, you know, maybe the little bit better test and it'll cost like maybe $100. Or get the cheap one and the expensive one and then if they match up, you know it's correct. bit better test and it'll cost like maybe a hundred. Or get the cheap one and the expensive one and then if they match up, you know it's correct. Courtney, you're the worst influence
Starting point is 00:38:30 in the world. What do you get for the cheap one? Because surely you get to find out what the genetic makeup of your dog is for the cheap one. What other information are they going to give you? Yeah, well. Age? No, they can't do age. Maybe they're more specific with the breeds.
Starting point is 00:38:45 The birthday. The cheap ones got like. Yeah, maybe the cheap ones kind of like, we think it's a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Yeah. You know, whereas like the more intricate ones. What do you think she is? Can't you just tell from looking?
Starting point is 00:38:58 No. Like she looks, we call her a bitzer. A bitzer. A bitzer of everything. I think, well, I'm pretty sure her mum was part Sharpay and then the people we got her from, they were like, her mum was part
Starting point is 00:39:11 Sharpay and part Staffy, we reckon. But it's really hard to tell because she like Meryl kind of has the colouring of a Hunterway. I feel like she's got some Ridgeback in there too. Yeah, but she does look like she has some Ridgeback, but she looks like she has a staffy head. It's hard to tell. Just do it. Yeah, do it. I feel like you've actually already done it. I feel
Starting point is 00:39:33 like you've actually, you're just coming to us to validate whatever you've already done. Do you reckon Ross Boss would pay for it if we're doing it as content? Oh yeah, true. Okay, some texts are coming through. Let's go to the text machine. Someone just said you should girl math it. Oh, trust me, in my brain I already have. Someone else said 130% do the dog DNA test. Someone
Starting point is 00:39:55 said Brie babe, we did one for $50 but they wanted a picture. So it was a crock of shit. Because they would have just done what we're doing. And they said he was a crock of shit because they would have just done that what we're doing oh and they said he was a rescue and we were so curious yeah we are as well someone else said absolutely do it my daughter did for our dog and now we know what our rescue is um sounds like brie needs backup to convince her missus to get the dog dna test to be honest my partner's actually on board yeah i'm
Starting point is 00:40:23 a bit skeptical about these things I would be tempted to swab my own mouth and then send it into the dog DNA test and then it comes back and it's like it's part Labrador it's part Sharp
Starting point is 00:40:34 hey I'm like that was I've got you nah mate that was human saliva mate yours would come back as a shih tzu
Starting point is 00:40:41 okay excuse me that is rude time for a birthday banger come back as a shih tzu. Okay, excuse me, that is rude. Bree and Clint. Time for a birthday banger. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. The number one songs when you turn 16. We're going to play you a couple and then we'll pick one to play out in full.

Starting point is 00:41:32 Fair enough, Rachel. We get it. Hey, mate, what's your birthday? The 1st of December, 1996. All right. That means you were 16 in 2012. And back on your 16th birthday, this was number one. Why does it feel so good but hurt so bad?
Starting point is 00:41:48 Oh. Olly Murs, he was everywhere in 2012. And his fedora was too. Yeah. And his incredibly tight pants. You like it? Yeah, banger. I think it's a banger too, Rach.
Starting point is 00:42:02 I like it. Trouble maker. Awesome. No, I like that's a banger too, Rach. I like it. Trouble maker. Awesome. No, I like that one. Okay. We're going to do a birthday banger for Hannah. Kia ora, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. How are you? Good, mate. You finished work for the day? I sure have. I've just got home. Oh, lovely. Well, we appreciate you staying on the line for us. We'll do this quick. What was your birthday? 26 of October 1993. Alright, that means you were 16 in 2009.
Starting point is 00:42:30 And Hannah, this would have been on the radio on your birthday. Britney Spears. Is this from the Circus album? Absolutely. Yeah. Three, it's called, from Britney Spears. Hannah, from the Circus album? Absolutely. Yeah. Three, it's called, from Britney Spears. Hannah, you a Britney fan?
Starting point is 00:42:49 I was when I was younger, but it will make a comeback at my 30th, that's for sure. Okay. Yes, Hannah. Britney Spears and three. Let's do one more birthday banger for Amber. Hi, Amber. Hi, Amber.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Hello. How are you? Good, mate. How was your day? Yeah, not too bad. Busy. Bus, Amber. How are you? Good, mate. How was your day? Yeah, not too bad. Busy. Busy? You're home now?
Starting point is 00:43:09 I am home now. Oh, good to hear. What's your birthday, Amber? March 17, 1987. All right. That means you were 16 and carry the one. 2003. And this is your birthday back.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Oh, my goodness. Delta Goodrum. and this is your birthday bagger. Delta Goodrum. She's having a resurgence at the moment. She is. She's got a movie on Netflix, which is actually... Quite good. Quite good, I hear. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Amber, were you a Delta fan? A little bit of one. A little bit of one. I think it was more because my best friend was. Yeah. Okay. I was trying to be that supportive best friend. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:48 Yeah, yeah, we both love Delta. Yeah, yeah, it's all good. We do. Okay, wait there, Amber. We're going to figure this out. Olly Murs, Britney Spears, Delta Goodrum. God, it's a motley crew today, isn't it? They're quite random.
Starting point is 00:44:00 I like it. But I like them all for different reasons. Yeah. I don't remember having any of those songs on Birthday Banger before. And I'm going to vote for Olly Murs, Troublemaker. It's got Flo Rida on that song as well. Does it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:11 I'm going Britney Spears. Are you? Yeah, just because I think it's not an overplayed Britney Spears song. It might be a bad decision, but that's my vote. Let's go to our split vote referee, producer Claudia. What is it going to be, Claude? This is a really hard one. Give me two selling points for your song.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Well, it does, I mean, who doesn't love to dance with knives? That's true. That's a good point. Olly Murs was working on X Factor when they discovered One Direction. So Olly Murs is one degree of separation from One Direction. And I didn't play One Direction yesterday. Britney Spears was a judge on X Factor, which
Starting point is 00:44:51 insto facto gives her a connection to One Direction as well. Wasn't she on the Astro season of X Factor USA? We don't like to talk about which season. And also it's a nice upbeat song, which I know One Direction loves upbeat music. Make a decision, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Troublemaker. Troublemaker Olly Mears. The winner of Birthday Bang of today's you, Rachel. Congratulations. Woo! Thank you so much. Here we go. See you, Rach. Have a good weekend, mate. Yeah, you too. Shout out to Leanna. Woo! Yeah, Leanna. UGB.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Let's go back to 2012. You're on ZM, Brian Clint. From the minute you sat down. Brian Clint. A heart attack, the Troublemaker. ZM, Brian Clint, the winner of Birthday Banger today from the year 2012. For Rachel, that is Olly Murs and Flo Rida's Troublemaker. Olly Murs, he's on, is he on The Voice?
Starting point is 00:45:46 Was he on The Voice or was he on X Factor? He's the singing show host, right? Oh, he's the host. He was on that new one that they came up with. That's right, where people impersonated other singers. Yeah. And then they pitched the best impersonator and he was the host of that show. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Yeah, that's the one. What was that called? No idea. I want to talk about this TikTok that I saw and I want you guys to tell me if I'm in the wrong. Okay. But I think what I'm about to explain to you, something I saw on a TikTok, is savage stage five clinger behaviour.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Ooh, okay. Like it's up there with some of the... So savage or like psycho? Yeah, like when I say savage, I'm like it's like... Out there. Yeah. Okay. Well, I could be wrong.
Starting point is 00:46:36 So I was just scrolling through my TikTok and this video came up of this girl who was making a video and talking about how she'd just been on a first date. So on the first date, she said that her and this girl walked down the beach and they were picking up and she was collecting shells and rocks. Yeah. That first date.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Yeah. They went on this walk. She has collected rocks and shells from this walk from her first date. Yeah. Their first date. Yeah. They went on this walk. She has collected rocks and shells from this walk from their first date. She said, we're about to go on a second date and I had this idea where I'm going to turn the shells and the rocks that I've collected into a bunch of different jewellery to give to her on the second date. Not on the second date. Not on the second date. The second date. Not on the second date. Not on the second date.
Starting point is 00:47:25 The second date. I believe you can, if you are sentimental like that and you had such a strong connection with that person, you can keep those shells in a box for if you ever get engaged or something like that. And then you go, I want to propose to you with a ring that has a piece of the shell from our first date. That's adorable.
Starting point is 00:47:44 And then you go, that is so cute. Cute. But on the second date. Second date? Yeah, nah, that's alarm bells. Yeah. Yeah. I just, what do you producers think?
Starting point is 00:47:55 Is that stage five clinger vibes or what? Yeah, that's too much. It's too much, eh? Yeah. Like the intentions are there to be sweet and like, this is who I am. I like jewellery. But no, that's way too soon.
Starting point is 00:48:07 Nah, on the second date. Not the second date. On the second date, even if it's not the case, you still need to pretend that you don't know if you're into the person or not. On the second date, you still need to be a bit of an audition. It's like coffee level. You're still just getting coffee. You shouldn't be giving them pieces of jewellery that you've hand
Starting point is 00:48:26 crafted from the stones and shells from your first date. Even if you guys bumped uglies on the first date, you don't show up with shell jewellery from that occasion. I'd run. I'd be too overwhelmed with it. It's lovely, don't get me wrong, but not for the second date.
Starting point is 00:48:41 I feel this. Do you ever feel bad for people who are just naturally a bit clingy? They don't mean to. They're not like. They're a natural stage four. They fall head over heel instantly. They have a tendency to be a stage four, which means that if they're real.
Starting point is 00:48:59 They live at a four. They live at a four, and then if they're real keen on someone, it's just automatic five. Kino binos. I did something real creepy back in the day. Oh, no. Yeah. No, but I think I played it okay.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I think it was actually fine. Yeah, yeah. What was it? What did you do? So I started, oh, no. I don't think I've ever told anyone this. So I started dating someone and I don't know why, but every place that we went to, so I would say it was like a cafe or, I don't know how I'm saying it.
Starting point is 00:49:35 So as we went, like if we went to a restaurant, I'd get a business card from the restaurant. Or if we went to a cafe, I'd get a business card. Or if we went somewhere, I'd like get a flower from something where we were or, you know what I'm saying? Like a little like souvenir from different places for the first year that we dated. And then. Did you make a collage? Did you make a scrapbook?
Starting point is 00:50:00 No, no. Just listen. I made a collage and I put it in a frame and it was like. You got it bad. That's sweet. I may have done the same thing. And I thought when I did it that I was bloody Don Julio McLove Steamy. And I never understood why the girl who I made it for didn't display it.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah, mine was pretty bloody ugly. And on reflection, it was ugly, weird, and a bit creepy. Did you have a cinema? You know those when you go to the movies? Yeah, I had a ticket stub in there from a concert. Mine had music concert tickets in there. And to be honest, I am quite the collager. I collage the shit out of it.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Like, mine was beautiful. Oh, you're bringing back such bad memories. But at the end of the day, like, it was just a bunch of rubbish in a frame. Yeah. Printed out our first selfie and put it in there. Oh, no. I was strictly no pictures. That's sweet. It was straight art for me.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Business cards. Yeah. Yeah, we're both stage five clingers. Yeah. Sound the alarm. Some of the stuff I had put in there went rotten. Hey. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:51:19 She put fresh produce in there. No, it was like a flower. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Bree and Clint. Condonest. Do you know who they are? That's like a flare. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Bree and Clint. Condé Nast. Do you know who they are? That's a media company. Do you know them?
Starting point is 00:51:28 No. Huge company. They own a lot of media brands, but also magazines like Vanity Fair and GQ, The New Yorker, Vogue. They own all the Vogues. Oh, jeez. The big ones. So they're a big deal. New Idea.

Starting point is 00:51:56 That's that magazine, eh? Condé Nast have released the list of 2023's most friendly countries in the world. Okay. And they do a lot of traveling, reviewing. Do they just go to these countries and what, just rank people on their friendliness? Is that how they do it? I think they polled people who have traveled. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:18 That makes way more sense. Yeah, it does. And New Zealand is on the list. Okay. Is it arrogant that I'm angry that we are not number one? Or does that prove Condé Nast's point? It's always good to strive to be number one. We're not number one.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Who do you think the friendliest country in the world is? The friendliest country in the world? Sweden. Sweden? No. Sweden. Sweden? No. Ireland. Oh, yeah.

Starting point is 00:53:13 Yeah, depends where you are. Some places, lovely. Other places, I feel like not so much. Number three, Greece. Okay. Third friendliest in the world. I've never been, so I can't comment. I've never been either. Beautiful place, though. Okay. Third friendliest in the world. I've never been, so I can't comment. I've never been either.
Starting point is 00:53:27 Beautiful place, though. More friendly than us. Number four, some people thought they were going to be number one. No, it's Ireland. You thought they were? Yeah. And coming in at number five, world's most friendly countries, it's us. Yay. Number five. Top five. World's most friendly countries, it's us. Yay.
Starting point is 00:53:46 Number five. Top five. It's fine, I guess. What? What do you mean it's fine? It's top five out of the whole world. We don't have a lot going for us in this country. We have natural beauty and friendliness.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Those are the two things that we have to trade off. Otherwise, we're ages away And everyone's already been to Hobbiton now So those are the last things that we had Mate, there's a lot more going for New Zealand Than natural beauty and friendliness Like what? They have that, you know
Starting point is 00:54:21 There's the place that smells like farts Rotorua? Yeah My hometown That's pretty fun Are you going to travel to the place that smells like farts. Rotorua? Yeah. My hometown. That's pretty fun. Yeah. Are you going to travel to the bottom of the world to visit fart town?
Starting point is 00:54:34 Like, I mean, I'm, you know, I'm a fart connoisseur. So when I first went to Rotorua, I was like, ooh, it smells like farts. Welcome home. Australia is number 12. Oh, yeah. Behind Turkey, Switzerland, Norway, Israel, Portugal, and Spain. That was a very judgmental Israel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:52 I've never been. I've never been either. Why are we so judgmental? We've never been. I've only been to Italy. Of all the countries in the top 10, I've only been to Italy. Well, you have famously said on this show before, you love to go to all the countries where people are real dicks. Yeah, they are.
Starting point is 00:55:06 You know? They call me a dick hunter. Yeah, yeah. That's how I like to travel. Exactly. Bree and Clint. And that, folks, is the end of the Bree and Clint show. Thank you for joining us.
Starting point is 00:55:17 When are you planning to vote? Probably on the day. On the day. But what if something comes up on the day and you can't go and do it? Mate, I don't have children. Nothing that drastic comes up on the day. What if you get COVID? Oh, well, I guess, you know, it's a sign.
Starting point is 00:55:35 That you weren't meant to vote. I wasn't meant to vote. I wonder what happens if that's true. If you get COVID, obviously you can't go out and vote. Yeah. Do you get in trouble then? Or that's a pretty good excuse not to vote. It's not illegal to not vote in New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Oh. You don't have to vote. Yeah. I know in Australia you legally have to. You get fined. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Not here.
Starting point is 00:55:56 It's up to you. One time my dad didn't, he just forgot to vote because he was too busy and then they sent him out a fine and he told them that this big fake story to get out of it. Yeah. And he got out of the fine. What did he say had happened to him? He told them that he had gotten caught out in the bush and he got bitten by something
Starting point is 00:56:20 and then like a tree had fallen on his leg. It was this big elaborate story. He was like, it'll never work, but I'm just going to do it. And then it worked. Wow. And he didn't have to do it. He didn't have to pay. Couldn't he have just said I had the poos?
Starting point is 00:56:32 No one asks. Yeah, but they'd probably just be like, you know, you can still come down and vote. Like anyone who brings up their work and go, hey, I can't come in today, I've got a funny tummy. They go, oh, no, no, no, that's fine. No more. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:56:42 Don't tell me anything else. You're all good. Have a day off. Are you wrecking? Yeah. I don't want to know anything. You're all good, have a day off. Are you wrecking? Yeah. I don't want to know anything about it. You're funny tummy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:49 Yeah, I mean, I don't want to be. I would rather be near someone who has a spitty bum than someone who has the spews. Same, same. Nah, no, the spews for me are so much worse. Either way, stay home. Yeah, either or just, I mean, you know, No, the spews for me are so much worse. Either way, stay home.
