Starting point is 00:00:00 ZM's Brea and Clint Pop Podcast It's our radio show But wrapped up in a neat little package just for you It's ZM's Brea and Clint podcast ZM's Brea and Clint But in the morning Good morning everybody And welcome to the Brie and Clint Morning Fiesta
Starting point is 00:00:19 This opener is not it At 604 in the morning No people don't want this No Doon dun dun dun dun dun do Doon do do do do do do Do do-do-do-do-do-do. People have George F.M.
Starting point is 00:00:32 Somehow you made it worse. No, that was the point. Yeah, right. Yeah. How's everybody doing? Has everybody feeling? I'm feeling all right. Well, according to my smart ring,
Starting point is 00:00:43 I got six hours and ten minutes sleep last night. Oh, yeah, okay. Yeah. What'd you get? According to my smart ring, I got six hours 54 last night. There you go. So seven hours.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Claudia? Well, according to my smart ring, which is my brain, I got seven and a half, I'd say. Oh, yeah, we're doing good. Yeah, pretty good. Ella? I went to bed at 7.30, so whatever that is. Holy smokes.
Starting point is 00:01:10 You got too much sleep. She woke up at 5.55. Rolled out of bed. She did not. She's been here bright and early. She was here first. I was. She was actually first one here.
Starting point is 00:01:22 It always is like that when we're covering breakfast. Oh, no, wait. Were you here? I don't know. I think I saw her in the car and then I got stuck in the elevator, so she got here in the room first. Remember every time we cover breakfast, producer Ella, first day she's here, she's sprightly, and then by like the third day, she's like, yeah. By the third day, she looks like Smeagle, when Smeagel's hiding under that dirty blanket and Lord of the Rings,
Starting point is 00:01:48 she's like, help me. The ring is my beard. Give me my bed. My pillow. We have a fun show on the way for you. We've got a concert announcement at 8 a.m. A concert announcement at 8 a.m. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:03 That's exciting. Very exciting. Always ready to welcome more artists to the country. Finally, they've started to come back. Finally. We'll add this one to the list. What are you looking for? My sheet that says what we're doing next.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Oh, your sheet. Mate, I've got this. Up next on the show, I want to talk about the Earth's population. Your sheet is right in front of you. Holy smokes. Up next, we're going to talk about Earth's population. I know that because it says it... According to a study...
Starting point is 00:02:39 On my sheets. Apparently, they may have got the numbers wrong. Really? Shock, yes. Play ZDM's Brie and Clint. Do you think about the world's population much? From time to time, I think more about New Zealand's population than the world's population. Yeah, that's fair.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Can I hazard a guess at what the current official number of the global population is? Go on. 7.5? No. Billion? The last estimate that I could find was given on the 15th of November 22. Oh, yeah. When they announced the birth of the eight billionth person.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Oh, yeah, right. So now they estimate it's around 8.2 billion. Do you know they reckon it will peak? Like it will play, it will get to a number and it will plateau. Well, there's only so much room. Oh, we've got lots of room left. Only so much resource. But there's plenty of room in like Invercargill.
Starting point is 00:03:39 There's not that much room in Invercargall. There's lots of room in invocardle. Invercargill is one of the biggest growing cities in New Zealand. Because they've got so much room. People love a bit of Invers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we get some high-rises. Imagine.
Starting point is 00:03:54 Imagine. some high rises in Palmerston North. If they let them sell alcohol in the supermarkets, invocard would boom. Yeah, game changer. Would be a huge game changer. I reckon it's got something to do with the jelly wrestling they have on... At the, what is it?
Starting point is 00:04:10 The brown kiwi. Yeah, I think that's what it is. The Christmas Eve jelly wrestling. People heard about that and they were like, that's where I want to live. Well, according to this article, there are scientists that are now claiming that they reckon the figure could be way off. Way off, up or down?
Starting point is 00:04:32 Up. Oh. Yeah. Well, it doesn't, that's okay. So. Because obviously we're coping. We're doing so well. So you want to, let's get into the details of it just for a second.
Starting point is 00:04:44 So the 8.2 billion estimate, you know how they got that estimate? No. So apparently they landed on that figure by dividing, and now stay with me, dividing the surface of the planet into a grid. And then census data was then used to calculate roughly how many humans lived in each square. Okay. And that's how they essentially got that number. Well, that seems flawed to me. Right?
Starting point is 00:05:17 And that's what these people are saying. So they're staff from a university in Finland. They're saying that they reckon that estimate is way off. And they're saying it could be in the millions, if not billions, difference. God, does it sucks to be the eight millionth baby because you're not really, then are you? And do we have to take a certificate off him? Does that baby get some sort of prize for being the eight billion? Well, not now, because they're saying he's not the eight billion.
Starting point is 00:05:46 Yeah, but I mean, I haven't proven. yet. But like when he got crowned or she got crowned, eight billionth person like did they win like, you know, 10 free coffees at Starbucks or something? Yeah, what do you want? Is it an EV or something? Yeah. This is where the stats thing is flawed, right?
Starting point is 00:06:06 Because you always hear that New Zealand is like the second or third highest obesity rate in the world. In the world, pre. We're the second or third fattest country in the world. I don't believe. I don't believe it for a second. And then I found out that it's because we're one of the only countries that actually reports our statistics. Oh.
Starting point is 00:06:26 So it's all flawed. So we're the second or third fattest country that bothers to submit its data. Who are the other countries submitting? It's always the US, the number one. And I believe that one. Actually, I'll find out. Hang on. Yeah, so what's the US is number one and where number three, New Zealand's number three.
Starting point is 00:06:47 who's number two? Who's got that title? You guys want to place a guess? You guys want to put in a guess on who the second is? It's hard because you have to be able to guess who would actually submit their data. Yeah. I want to say Germany.
Starting point is 00:07:06 You're going to fat Germans? A lot of Germans eating Bratworths. A sausage and beer. Yeah, sausage and beer. That diet can't be great. Not good. What about you producers? Where are you thinking?
Starting point is 00:07:17 wondering about the UK. Oh. Sorry if I can pick the entirety of the UK, though. So, England. Okay, England, lock it in for Claude. Okay, yeah, Ella. I'm with Clint. America.
Starting point is 00:07:29 America. No, that's number one. We're looking for number two. Oh, number two. Yeah. Australia. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Well, again, the data is all wrong. And I was completely wrong. You ready for the top five? Yeah. Number four. No, can you ready for the top four? You promised us the top five. Top five countries are on percentage of obesity by country.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Top five. Number four, Cook Islands. Okay. Number four, Tukalo. Number two, Nauru. Number one, the fattest country. This feels rude to say this. American Samoa.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Oh. Yeah. These all sound like make-believe countries. Let's do the real countries when we come. Yeah, when we're coming. ZM's Brie and Clint. Covering for Fletchbourne and Haley. I figured it out.
Starting point is 00:08:25 I've got the obesity stats. Yes. And you guys weren't a million miles off. It's good. The number I was talking about was... Is this the real country one now? It's First World Countries. Oh, now I feel bad.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you should feel bad. No, no, don't say yeah, yeah, yeah. That was a trap from you. It's all our Cook Island listeners. I'm sorry that Bree said you live in a make-believe country. A magical make-believe country. Do you guys want the top five obese countries, first world countries?
Starting point is 00:08:54 Yep. Number five, Australia. Okay. 30% of Australians are obese. Number four, Ella was right, the United Kingdom. No, that was Claudia. 28%. Do you person when we're talking here?
Starting point is 00:09:11 No. It's just brown noise. I said Australia. Number three, I was right again, New Zealand. Well done. It's more white noise, but whatever. So, again? Number three was New Zealand, we're the third most obese country.
Starting point is 00:09:24 34% of New Zealanders. Come on, Germany for number two. Do they work out the stats with, like, we're a small country? So do they work it out based on population? No, it's a percentage. Yeah, it's a percentage. It takes that into account. Cool, man.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Yeah, yeah. And you think I should listen more to that? Damn it. It was Claudia you didn't listen to. So number one is the United States. I was right again. And no one's picked number two. What's number two?
Starting point is 00:09:50 France. I said Germany. Italy. Is it in Europe? No. Oh, you know where they do love to eat? Where? Is Greece.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Greece to be a good one. Oh, but they've got a Mediterranean lifestyle. Yeah, they're quite healthy. They love to eat, but they've got a Mediterranean lifestyle. Yeah, true. Where's somewhere that's cold. It's not cold. Antarctica.
Starting point is 00:10:12 You want to have a high body fat percentage. Give us a hint. Okay, I'll give you a hint. It's Chile. Really? Yes, Claudia. Oh, yeah. You got it.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Iceland. You said it's Chile. It's Chile. It's Chile. ZD.M's Brie and Clint podcast. Time for Trady versus Lady. This is the main event. Trady versus Lady.

Way out ahead. Let's go to our lady first. She's in Southland. She's 51, and she was once on The Weakest Link. Welcome to the show, Lana.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Hi, Lana. Were you the weakest link? Well, we never made it to air, but yeah, no, it probably was. Oh, they didn't put your episode on TV. No. Who was the host in New Zealand? Louise Wallace, that's right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:18 She did a Liberty Treasure Island, I think. Back in the day? Maybe back in the day, yeah. Louise Wallace. Ah, yes. She was scary, wasn't she, Lana? Yes, she was, actually. The host of the Aussie one was Morag from home and away.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Oh, yeah. The red-headed? You've got to be quite intimidating to be the host of the weakest link. Yeah, she was intimidating. Lana, you're taking on our tradie from Wellington. and he's 52, and he just got back from Tonga where he got to meet the Princess of Tonga. Welcome to the show, Darren.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Hi, Darren. Hi, how are you? Did you curtsy or bow? I stumbled across here because she was staying at the hotel and she was there. Oh, yeah. I wasn't quite expecting to meet her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Can you ask the Princess of Tonga for a selfie? Probably not, eh? No. No, it's against part of the place. Yeah, I thought so, yeah. All right, Darren, your buzz is Trady. Lana, lady, the first of three correct answers gets our $50 cash prize from KFC. Good luck, guys.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Here we go, question number one. If I had my red bands on, what would I be wearing? Lady. Yes, Lana. Gumboots. Yes, iconic gumboots. All right, one to the ladies, question number two. If you were splitting the G, what would you be drinking?

Starting point is 00:12:43 Um, pass. If I ask you to split the G with me, you don't know? No. No. Okay, that's a Guinness. All right, no points there, guys. We move on to question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Lana. Kelly Clarkson. It sure is. Two to the ladies. None to the tradies. You need this one, Daz, to stay in it. Question number four. What animal species did Jane Goodall study?

Starting point is 00:13:26 Apes. Oh. Is it... A monkey? Yeah, well, you'd have to take monkeys, would you? You'd have to. Are they eights? June for you.
Starting point is 00:13:40 I would say yes. Yeah, okay, we're going yes. And that is the win. And that's the lady. She's a lady. Lana, congratulations. You're another lady champion. We've got $50 cash coming your way.
Starting point is 00:13:56 You're not the weakest link today. Well done. No, thank you. But we will say goodbye. No, we said goodbye. Oh, we did. Yeah, that's more like it. That is more like it.
Starting point is 00:14:12 It is Franklin. Are you guys of the opportunity that when life presents you, are you of the opinion rather, that if life presents you a new opportunity, you should grab it with both hands and take that opportunity. Not me. Even if you're scared. I deliberate over the details.
Starting point is 00:14:30 I stew on the details. I then think about all the possible outcomes and repercussions, and then I'll make a decision. It's fair enough. I kind of do the same thing. But don't you think that growth lies outside your comfort zone or something? Who are you? You Jay Shetty this morning?
Starting point is 00:14:49 Yeah, I know, I know, I know. Jay Shitty, more like it. I've been offered an opportunity. I've been offered an opportunity. I was good, that was good, yeah. Thank you. I am. No, now say it.
Starting point is 00:15:01 I, I, I, my, with this life advice, who do I think I am? Jay Shetty? Yeah, no. I've been offered an opportunity and it's not something that I usually would do. Okay. And I want to know if you guys think I should do it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:17 If I should take it. Hit us with it. So, I have been offered the lead in a short film. Ooh. What's the short film and is it a scam? I don't believe it is a scam. Okay. One of the people at my gym is a filmmaker, like an independent filmmaker.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Okay, so it's a person you know directly. It's a person I know directly. Because I've gotten inboxes before offering me roles in short films. Yeah, yeah. And then I was like, I don't know if this is. He's just going to come in on, sit on the casting couch. Yeah. And we'll just get some video footage of you.
Starting point is 00:15:52 No, this is legit. Okay. And he said that he, he said, he had already, and I said, oh, me. And he goes, yeah, I've already asked the real actors. Because there are a few at our gym. There are a few real actors. And he goes, I think you'd be great for it. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:06 And how, when, when he says short. It's a 12-minute film. Okay. I was hoping it was shorter. Me too. I'd be more tempted if it was shorter. Like, six minutes is more achievable, I think. I could do an Instagram reel for you.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah, yeah. But no, this is a proper film. What's the character? The character is a down and out single dad. Okay. Whose daughter doesn't want anything to do with him. And he looked at me and he went, you're perfect. Notoriously, I'm all for it.
Starting point is 00:16:43 I think you should do it. Get yourself outside of your comfort zone. I will remind you of that time you filmed an ad for, was it New World? Oh, no, Samsung. Samsung, was it Samsung? With my wife, yeah. And didn't the director keep asking you to redo the take because you were overacting so much? Yeah, he was like, great, great, just do less.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Do less. Do less. Do less. he go, it was really good, I need 50% less. And then we do it again, he goes, okay, I need 98% less. Okay, we have good cameras, just do less. You've done more in that take when I've asked you to do less. Yeah, before I tell you where I'm sitting with it,
Starting point is 00:17:32 what do our producers think? I just know that we're going to take whatever video and edit something out of it. I know. So you need to be prepared for that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I won't just get away with it. Have they seen your acting face? No.
Starting point is 00:17:47 No. Wait, let's just, should we, I just want, maybe it's changed. Yeah. You don't like practice. So I'm going to give you a little scene. Yeah, okay. And then you have to react, okay? I have a trained Thespian, by the way.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I did do level seven speech and drama. Oh my God. Okay. Okay, that's not convincing us. Okay, so what the scene will be that your daughter, who's 16. Okay. You let her go to a party.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Yep. And you gave her a curfew of 11. I'll play the daughter, okay? And then, but she's gotten home at two in the morning. Okay, right. Okay. And you're sitting up waiting for her. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Okay. And you've just come in. Okay, but I'm going to, I'll like sneak in. Okay. Okay, ready? Where have you been? Oh, the, you know how I was organized a lift with my friend Jay? You were due home three hours ago.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Your mother and I. Hold character. Your mother and I have been. No, you're a single dad. Oh, I've been worried sick. And if your mother was still alive, she'd be dead. She'd be, she'd be furious. She is still alive.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Oh. She left you. Okay. This isn't about, no. See, this is improvisation. I can't do this. No, I need a script guy. I need the script.
Starting point is 00:19:23 I need the material. Okay, tomorrow should I organise a script? Yeah. And we can do a little play-by-play scene. Yeah, yeah, okay. So it's all scripted. Yeah, yeah, let's do that. And you just have to deliver the lines.
Starting point is 00:19:35 That's it. Yeah. Piece of cake. Okay, because I haven't committed to this project yet. Where are you sitting? I told the guy I can't act. And he goes, oh, come on. So he's still, yeah, I'm just concerned that somebody's,
Starting point is 00:19:49 actual money, this is an independent film, and he's going to pour like 20 grand into this film. And then he's going to see it and he's going to go, oh my God, Clint Stakes. Who says you can't act? Who says? We haven't said. I mean, you come in here and you act and pretend like you're a nice guy. You do me a...
Starting point is 00:20:11 You do a great job with that. You really sell it. Yeah, maybe I can do it. We're behind the scenes, you're a real a-hole. ZD.N. How's everyone's drinking at the moment? Under control? You're not back into like COVID-level drinking, are you, Bree?
Starting point is 00:20:30 Excuse you. I probably drink the least on this show. How many drinks you had this week? I had a few at my surprise engagement party. What day was that? That was on Saturday. Doesn't count. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Sweet. This week started on Monday. I've had none. Unfortunately, I've had four. Well, because Monday was a public holiday, so we were at the pub. Oh, I was like, when did you have four? Yeah, so this week is, this week is, it's a tricky one. Doesn't count.
Starting point is 00:20:57 It doesn't count. It doesn't count. I either had four this week or I've had 24 last week. It depends where you want to put the four. I don't consider myself a heavy drinker, and I think most people don't consider themselves heavy drinkers, but I found this piece of audio, which is quite confronting if it's true. Okay. Okay, because it completely changes the playing field.
Starting point is 00:21:22 And no one really tells you what the playing field is, do they? Not really. Like, what is a moderate drinker? What is an average drinker? Oh, I mean, they do. They do. We just choose not to listen. Not like this.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Not like this. Okay. I'm going to play you this audio and then I want everybody to tell me where you sit on this spectrum. Okay. What is the name? What is the type of drinker that best identifies you? And sorry if this is confronting to everyone listening.
Starting point is 00:21:46 If you drink once every 10 years, you're basically a non-drinker. If it's once every five years, you're a very rare drinker. Once a year makes you an occasional drinker, and twice a year puts you in the rare drinker zone. Drinking once a month means you're a moderate drinker, while twice a month is more of an average drinker. Once a week, you're a regular drinker, twice a week. That's leaning into dependent territory. And if you're drinking every three days, you're mildly addicted. Every two days shows a loss of control.
Starting point is 00:22:16 single day points to a strong dependency. If you're drinking in the mornings, you're a day drinker. Every two hours is severe addiction. And if it's 24 hours nonstop, that's straight up life threatening. Wow, when he says day drinking, it sounds way less fun. Yeah, it sounds real bad. Everyone else is like, should we day drink? And you're like, whoa.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Fun. Pool side vibes. What a load of BS, though. I have to say once every five years and that means your, what did he say? An occasional drinker. An occasional drinker once every five years. I thought an occasional drinker was someone who drunk on special occasions.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Christmas's, birthdays. Yeah, that's what it means. An occasional drinker on special occasions. No, he's saying once every five years. I don't believe that stat. once in five years and that means you're an occasional drinker. Do you remember the title that identified you in there? I can't, no.
Starting point is 00:23:20 I didn't really listen. I think I got dependent drinker. I think. I think I got leaning into dependent drinker territory. Yeah, right. Claudia, you were the same? Yeah, I'm in dependent territory. What's that?
Starting point is 00:23:37 What's dependent? Twice a week. Okay. I'm probably the one before. of that once a week. Once a week. Yeah. Whatever that is.
Starting point is 00:23:45 It's probably dependent as well. Probably way too much. Ella, have you had a drink before? Are you allowed? I was going to say I'm moderate. Moderately keen for her first beer. I'll be quiet. A few of weeks ago,
Starting point is 00:24:04 I told you about a childhood hobby of mine that I could be sitting on a big payday for. Yes, the Pokemon cards. The Pokemon cards. And then you had a full-on domestic with your mum because she gave them to your brother. Yes, there was quite a bit of confusion around
Starting point is 00:24:23 whose cards were who, and it ended up getting fixed, kind of. But I have a bit of show and tell for you today. Have you got the Pokemon cards? Did you pack a big enough tante that your brother gave you the Pokemon cards? So there's something that's happening. But anyway, so here's the Pokemon cards.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Oh my God, it's in an official Pokemon binder and everything. This is my official Pokemon binder from 1999. Okay. Seven? I can't remember. One of those. We don't, we're not too sure if this is mine or if it's my brothers. And we are still looking for the other binder.
Starting point is 00:25:06 So there was two? There was two. Okay. But I have this binder on loan from my brother at the moment. Okay. And I thought we could, I haven't looked in it yet. You haven't even opened it? I haven't opened it because I wanted to open it on the show.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Okay. And see if there was any surprise goodies in here. I got to be honest, I don't know the value of Pokemon cards necessarily. I don't really either. I do. I'm interested to see what you've got. I do know there's certain cards. that are worth a heap.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Like, obviously, a holographic Charazard is like the one everyone talks about. Yeah. And then you've got, like, your holographic chancy card, which is worth a lot of money. Okay. And then, but I'm not too really sure about the others. Let's have a look through and have a little look. They're in very good, they're in very good conditions. Yeah, but I don't know if they are, because I've seen on TikTok and stuff, like how good a condition they need to be in.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Oh, I see. Some of them are a little bit. A little bit. dirty. Have they been played with? Did you played? Did you actually? I played with them, yeah. Okay. There's a Charmelian. It's not holographic. There's a
Starting point is 00:26:16 War-Tortle. I wonder if there's anyone's listening that is an expert on these things. There's a holographic Vaporian in here. Okay. I've got to I'm not the biggest Pokemon guy. I was more of a Dragon Ball Z guy, but um
Starting point is 00:26:32 you've got Seiduck. here. You've got, um... Do you reckon, because I'm thinking I might start up this hobby again. There's a mouth, yeah. I might take up my childhood hobby. Is that cool or is that lame?
Starting point is 00:26:48 Yeah, I don't know if it's cool. What do you mean? You want to, you want to get into Pokemon cards as an adult woman. Yeah. Is that cool? Charmander? Charamander in here. It's obviously the first, um, first...
Starting point is 00:27:00 What did you say the valuable one was? Charazard, holographic Charazard. I'm pretty... A weedel. God, you must have close to the whole set. Diglitz in here. Well, see, the thing is, is that the... Crabby!
Starting point is 00:27:14 The other binder. You got an extra side-up. You should just keep that one, just in case... Yeah, I mean, doubles. Good for trading. Yeah, I mean, if you have to share this with your brother, just put that in your drawer. Well, this is the thing, is that...
Starting point is 00:27:26 Two crabbies. I have a distinct memory of having a Charazard. Okay. And... I haven't come across one yet. You haven't come across that Charazard yet. Another crabby. That's going to be so disappointing if that Charazard is gone.
Starting point is 00:27:43 You've got loads of trainer cards. Come on. Lots of energy cards. Electabuzz. Taurus, primate, muck. There's some Japanese ones in here. They're my new ones. I collected those when I was on the Gold Coast recently.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Oh, okay. So we're adding to the collection. I have to say in here, no Charazard. No Charazard holographic or otherwise. So I think, I believe that the other binder had the best cards. But where would it have gone? And it makes me think that this book here, no offense to my brother, is my brothers.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Oh, okay. Because I collected the cards for longer. Even he said to me, he goes, you had way better cards than me. So he knows that. And he knows that. If there is a holographic Charazard in that other book. Dragonite. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:47 There's very few holographic cards in here. Do you think your brother could be a bit of an evil genius? He swapped him. And he does have both folders. And so that he didn't look like he was just keeping the good one. Do you think he's gone, this is the only folder I have? Let's talk about sharing it. Don't start.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Meanwhile, he has the good folder. Don't start a family feud. Imagine if this broke up the family and it was over Pokemon card binders. Do you think he has both folders and he's gone through and he's taken all the cards he wants into one folder? And then he's put all the cards he doesn't want into this folder. But then he's just put just enough OK cards in here to make it seem convincing. Yeah, yeah. So he's sacrificed a couple of holographic cards that he does want.
Starting point is 00:29:35 That is such. to make you believe. An evil plan that I actually would appreciate how evil that was. Yeah. I'm not saying that's what he has done. I don't think. There's a holographic snorax. Did I say that?
Starting point is 00:29:48 You're putting it into my brain now that that's a possibility. I don't think so. I know my brother very well and in no world would he ever do that to me. Yeah. Or is that how good of an evil genius he is? Let's just look up because I know someone said I should talk to Vaughn about my Pokemon cards. Does he have Pokemon cards? I would put my
Starting point is 00:30:10 house on having Pokemon cards. How much is a holographic, I'm sure of it. I'm sure that I had a holographic Charazard, a holographic Charazard worth. Someone said there's an app which lets you scan the cards. Is there? That's cool. I might have to get
Starting point is 00:30:26 that just to see if I've got anything. There's holographic charizards can be worth up to $100,000. Yeah. Someone said it's not just what they are, but what generation they are, like Harry Potter books. If they're a first edition. Their first gen. Or a jungle, then they're going to be worth a lot.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Yeah. I've got fossils in here. I've got team rocket cards. So you've got to go to the right person. You've got to go to the right person because, again, you could go to someone who goes, oh, this is not really worth much. They're okay. I'll give you a grand for the book.
Starting point is 00:30:59 And you'd go, oh, nice. But actually, they know there's a $20,000 card in there. what a D-bag. You just don't know. Imagine if it was my brother again going, I will give you $1,000 for your binder. My brother, the evil genius. He goes, look, I love you and I don't want you to go without.
Starting point is 00:31:18 So, oh, he's like, how about you give me, how about you give me $1,000 for this binder, the crap binder? And we call it even. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, watch this space. I am determined to find that other binder. Yeah. And if there's a Charazard in there, I could be sitting on a gold mine.
Starting point is 00:31:38 Oh, my God. I'd love to see it. The ZDM Podcast Network. How do we really know if we're with the right person? Oh, God. You're asking that question already. You've only been engaged for a month. Well, no, I know.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Now's the time to ask, though. Now's the time to ask before you put the deposit down for the venue. Are you projecting? No. Okay. Well, then, shush. I saw it. I would never ask myself.
Starting point is 00:32:04 that question. Because you don't want to know the answers? I know the answer. I would never let my wife ask herself that question. In fact, if my wife is listening to this break, change the channel. Change it over. Change it over.
Starting point is 00:32:17 Not for you. Not relevant. You and the kids? Yep. Put the Moana soundtrack on. Not relevant for you, Lucy, if you're listening. I saw a clip where they said these five questions you should be asking about the person you're with and your relationship.
Starting point is 00:32:34 to see if you're truly with the right person. Okay. And the relationship is in a healthy place. Okay. Should we go through the questions and everyone listening right now, if you're at that crossroads where you're like... Oh, God, what if you're in the car on the way to work together? Awkward.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Oh, awkward. Change your channel. Yeah. Or... Or it could be great. Maybe a conversation starter. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:58 We've got some audio here. Here comes the first question. Number one, if someone told you you're a lot like your partner, would this be a compliment to you? Oh, okay. Yes. Yes, 100%. I would love someone to give me that compliment. Again, I feel like it would be a compliment for me and it would not be received as a compliment for my wife.
Starting point is 00:33:20 She'd be like, I'm like him. Okay. Here comes question number two. Number two. Are you truly fulfilled or just less lonely? Are you truly fulfilled or just less lonely? That's an interesting one, isn't it? Because I feel like relationships, you can get into a rut.
Starting point is 00:33:39 And you don't really ask yourself all the time. Am I truly fulfilled? Of course, you're going to be less lonely. But it's quite an interesting one, isn't it? Like, is that person adding heaps to your life? Or are they just someone there? Yeah, providing company. At the end of the day, are they just, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Yeah. Okay, here comes question number three. Number three, are you able to be unapologetically yourself, or do you feel the need to show up differently to please your partner? I am 1,000% unapologetically myself in front of my partner. Are you? Yes. I mean, it's the title of your book, wasn't it?
Starting point is 00:34:19 In front of my partner is where I let everything hang out. Are you really? Yeah, right. The good, the bad and the truly ugly, my partner, my fiancé, knows it all. I don't know if that's the best advice. People are always like, you've got to be yourself, you've got to be honest. But surely you should try and be the best version of yourself for your partner. That's a different question.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Don't they deserve the best version of you? I think you're getting it, I think that's a different question. Right. You're combining them now. Am I? I think, of course you always want to be the best, try to be the best version of yourself for your partner. but if you can't truly let every part of you hang out in front of your partner, then I don't believe that is the best thing if you can't do that.
Starting point is 00:35:12 So partners who don't fart around each other? I guess this question is also like interpreted differently depending on the people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like for me, yes, I mean farting in front of my partner. Is your unapologetically authentic true self? But I'm also talking about it on a. deeper level, like where my partner sees me at my lowest lows.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Right. You know? Like, that's what I'm kind of not just, I mean, my farts is a part of it, yes. All right, we're going through questions. Are they your lowest lows or your highest highest? Depends on the day. Number four, are you in love with who your partner is right now as a whole? Or are you only
Starting point is 00:35:49 in love with that good side, their potential, or the idea of them? Oh! Because a lot of people do say this. And I mean, I will say a lot of women always will say, oh, but... I'm in love with the man he will be. He will be, you know?
Starting point is 00:36:03 And I guess what they're saying in this is, you should be just in love with the person that they are in front of you right now. Much easier if you just love that person. Yeah. Less work to do. Yeah. Isn't there? Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Last one. Number five, would you want your future or imagine child to date somebody like your partner? It's a great question. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's an easy yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:26 And if you're like, hmm, then I mean there's your answer. right there. 100%. You know? Yeah. People don't, yeah. People don't go through a list of questions that sort of rigidly with the person they're with regularly.
Starting point is 00:36:39 But you would have moments, right? Like if your partner wasn't someone you wanted your children, that type of person to date, there'd be flashes where you go, oh Christ, I hope my kids don't make the same mistake. I did. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And there's all your answers you ever needed right there. Well, okay, I hope your relationship survived that conversation.
Starting point is 00:36:59 If someone has had to pull over and get out of the car because you had a break up. If your partner's just gone real quiet. We apologize. Yeah, it was Bree's idea. Your partner hasn't said anything for five million. Yeah, yeah. Blame Bree. It's ZAM's Bree and Clint Podcast.
Starting point is 00:37:17 I found this piece of audio and it reminds me of people that we know. Okay. And if I'm being honest, we've all had moments like this. I'm calling this personal revelations. when you realize something that everybody else has already realized. Wait, is this off the back of the chat we just had? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's more like pop culture things, okay?
Starting point is 00:37:37 Are you having, are you having an epiphany? I'm going to play you this, you tell me the person you think of straight away. I just found out that Celine Dion is a white woman. Also, she's only 57. I thought she was dead and black. And that reminds me the time that I found out Sigourney Weaver was not a black man. And that is when I found out that Stevie Wonder was a black man when I was 16 years old.
Starting point is 00:37:59 We were talking about Stevie Wonder in class, and I was like, Stevie Wonder is black? And I texted my mom in class. I was like, oh my God, I didn't know Stevie Wonder was black, and she was like, Anne Blind. And I was like, Stevie Wonder is blind? And that reminds me of the time a few years ago when I found out Timothy Shalame
Starting point is 00:38:13 was going to be playing Bob Dylan. And I was like, why would Timothy Shalovey play a Rastafori and singer? Producer Ella. Producer Ella. That's who it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly who it reminds. reminded us of.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Oh yeah. Our friend Ella, who just a couple of months ago came to us with big news, and she was so excited to tell us this big news. Guys, did you know Janet Jackson is Michael Jackson's sister? When did you find out about that? Like, I didn't learn about that at school. Since I came out of the womb? How?
Starting point is 00:38:50 It was always Michael Jackson. It just felt separate. No, it wasn't. You're kidding. You're going to hate this. It's not just Janet Jackson. What do you mean? There's a whole family.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Wait, was Janet Jackson and the Jackson 5? No. So there's those four and then there's Janet. Oh. Yeah, so there's the four brothers and Michael that made up the Jackson Five. And then there's Janet Jackson who had an illustrious career in music. And then there's also their other sister, La Toya Jackson, who's also famous. What?
Starting point is 00:39:24 It's not just Ella, though. This happens to a lot of people. It happens to a lot of our producers. Do you remember our producer Ben the day? I think we were doing a birthday banger. We're putting together the list of songs for birthday banger. And I watched him find out in real time that Nelly, the rapper, and Nelly Fittado, the singer, were different people.
Starting point is 00:39:46 He was like, wait. He's like, what? There's two? Nelly Hodden here. That's a girl, right? No. What? The two different people.
Starting point is 00:39:55 But again, again, it's not just other people. It's also us. You'll have these. We had this earlier in the year. Didn't make it to air, but it was on the podcast. When I found out the pad sticks to the undies, not the person. That was a personal revelation. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:40:12 It's like this was a few years ago now when I had the revelation that men don't wipe when they wait. Yes. They shake. What the hell? Yeah. It's like, oh, this is a big one. I realize that sinner is a singer. is a singer, the actor,
Starting point is 00:40:28 Lenny Kravitz is a singer, and then Lenny Kravitz has a kid. Stop! Stop! Wait, wait, no. Zoe Kravitz. Stop calling Lenny Kravitz, Sinner. The character he played in Hunger Games that was like five minutes of screen time. For Ella, for Ella, the Hunger Games was
Starting point is 00:40:46 Lenny Kravitz's big break. Yeah, literally. And everything that happened in Lenny Kravitz's career otherwise has been because he got a role in the Hunger Games. What about when producer bear next producer of the show had never heard of the DJ Moby before? Oh, that's right. He was like, who are you talking about? We were like, the DJ, the bald guy.
Starting point is 00:41:09 The music producer, Moby. The guy Eminem has been making fun of for 25 years, Moby. And he's like, never heard of it. Not ringing any bells. I think producer Ellie also was on board with that where she was like, don't know who you're talking about. Yeah, I think that's a niche one. What? That's a you two thing.
Starting point is 00:41:26 No, not the band you two We're talking about Modi No, I know you too Who wasn't on this team That found out that you two were Irish this year? I didn't know that Might have been me What?
Starting point is 00:41:37 Wait, are you just finding out that they're Irish now? I'm confused I think it was me Because I was like, I've never heard Bono speak That's right, it was you Yeah, and I was like, are they?
Starting point is 00:41:46 Look, it happens to the best of us And that's why we want to hear your personal revelations this morning. ZDM's Brie and Clint Covering Breakfast Covering Breakfast covering breakfast and literally eating breakfast as well. God, they talk so much.
Starting point is 00:42:02 They do talk a lot. Anyway, we're back. We're talking about personal revelations, the thing that you found out after everybody else. Dana's caught through. Morning, Dana. Good morning, how are you? We're good.
Starting point is 00:42:13 This was your husband's personal revelation. What did he find out? Oh, no. He came to me yesterday all proud of himself and he said to me, did you know that you can change the power on the microwave from high to medium to low and I was like, yeah. Dana, I will stand here
Starting point is 00:42:32 honestly and tell you that I've just found that out too. Did you not know that? I thought the microwave, which is just a microwave. I thought it just went on time. What about when you're de-frosting something and you can go like turbo-defrost? I thought that was a special setting. Wow.
Starting point is 00:42:48 There's different setting, so you can change the temperature as well. I know what I'm doing this afternoon. I would have thought your favorite cooking No, it's the air friar. Oh, you're true. You would know if it was the air friar. Charlotte's here. Hi, Charlotte.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Hi, Charlotte. Hi, guys. Good morning. What was your personal revelation, Charlotte? Okay. So, I was very young, and please don't judge me, but I used to think that the Great Wall of China was actually made of China. I love that one. That's cute.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Charlotte. That makes sense. It does make sense. Why wouldn't it be? Otherwise it would be called the Great Wall in China. Yeah, yeah. That's what I thought. That's why there was no bulls around allowed near the wall.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Yeah. Makes sense. Very good, Charlotte. We're talking personal revelations, the things you found out after everybody else. Maddie, what was yours? Hi, morning, how are you guys? Good, thank you. Good, thank you.
Starting point is 00:43:48 What was your personal revelation? I was today's old yesterday. 25 when I found out that you didn't have to fly with the same airline. Why? So I thought if I flew with Air New Zealand, I'd have to return, and that means my Queensland flight at the end of the year are going to be much cheaper. Oh, my gosh. What a win, Maddie.
Starting point is 00:44:10 How good. Welcome to the world of the living. Oh, my goodness. So you thought if you were doing a return flight anywhere, where if you booked with one airline for the flight there, you had to book the same one for the flight bag. Yeah, and I'm going to try to excuse it a little bit. I've never left New Zealand,
Starting point is 00:44:31 so I'm using that as my excuse. Fair enough. Oh, Maddie. Let's put Maddie in the draw for route to roots. Yeah. Do you want to be in the draw for our trip? Yeah, Maddie. We could send you to Memphis for your first overseas trip.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I've been trying to call for that. Like, since it started. Oh, you're in. We'll chuck you in. We're drawing it on Friday. Good luck. Oh, my gosh. Thanks guys so much.
Starting point is 00:44:51 And there's more than one airline. You will be, yeah, flying with multiple airlines. Oh my goodness. Amazing, thanks guys. No worries, Maddie. We're talking personal revelations. Someone said I was 10 before I realized your limbs don't grow back. Yeah, 10-year-old can get away with that.
Starting point is 00:45:11 That's true. Someone else said last week I found out the bald guy in Devil Wears Prada, Stanley Tucci, was the MC guy in the Hunger Game. with the colourful hair. That is correct. It all comes back to the Hunger Games, right, Regisela. What about this one? It all comes back. I was 20 years old when I found out reindeer are actually real.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Not just a fairy tale with Santa. That's like when I found out that gnar walls are a real thing. The unicorn whales. What the hell? That's a real animal. They shouldn't be a real thing, but they are. It looks prehistoric. A ZM's Brinklin podcast.
Starting point is 00:45:46 There's a lot of different things coming through on the text machine. some are blowing my mind as well, I must say. Someone texted her and said that you can change the height on the top dishwasher rack to fit your plates in the bottom. Did you know that? Did not know that. Because I didn't know that. Didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:46:03 And when we moved into our new house, our plates didn't fit in the dishwasher. Yeah. And I was like, well, we either get new plates or we get a new dishwasher. And my cousin came around and she goes, I actually sell these dishwashers. And she's been kachunk and lifted the basket. What?
Starting point is 00:46:19 Literally blew my mind. I was like, you've just saved us hundreds of dollars. I love how you were just like, well, we're going to buy new plates in. Well, yeah. What else are you going to do? Buy new dishwasher or new plates? Yeah, buying the new plates was cheaper than the new dishwasher. What was your personal revelation?
Starting point is 00:46:37 Someone texted and said, it took me 38 years to realize Tracy Chapman was a woman, always thought that they were a man. That's because her voice is very unique. She does have a deep voice. I bet there's people probably finding it out right now. Do we have a bit of Tracy Chapman fast car? Claudia, I'll get us some. I got gas lit by Guy Williams on here that Tracy Chapman was a man.
Starting point is 00:47:01 Because I knew that she was a woman. But he believed so strongly that Tracy Chapman was a man. Did he actually believe it? He actually believed it. And he was like, oh my God, you're so stupid. I was having this same conversation the other day with my fiancé where she was like, that's a man singing. And I was like, no, it's not, it's a woman.
Starting point is 00:47:23 And we were talking about Cat Burns. Oh, okay, yeah, yeah. The singer Cat Burns. Yes, yeah. Who's similar vibe to Tracy Chapman. But, yeah. And I was like, it's a woman. See, I hear a woman.
Starting point is 00:47:41 You do now. Have you got to be the cat? Burns. Yeah. Park out your... I hear a woman on that one. You know what doesn't have the Tracy Chapman argument, though,
Starting point is 00:47:57 is that a lot of people have only heard the Luke Combs version now. Yeah. And they're like, what do you mean that's a woman? God, that annoys me when people go, oh, this fast car, the song by Luke Combs.
Starting point is 00:48:06 You're like, get out of here. No, no, no, not Luke Combs. Get out. Not the Luke Combs version. Someone said, morning team. I'm a 26-year-old female. I only realized about three years ago that the South Pole doesn't have polar bear.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Yeah, yeah. Why did they not teach me that at school? My husband is 49 and he just found out that the seasons are aligned with dates. He just thought when the weather got too nice that it was the season's time to change. What? That one has blown my mind. So, every year will go, oh, must be almost time for summer. Oh, I guess it's about to change.
Starting point is 00:48:42 I guess we might have to change it to summer. It's weird that happens at the same time every year. I can't believe Clint thought the pad stuck. to the person. I'm not the only one. I guarantee you I'm not the only one. And if your, if your partner is going, oh, that Clint guy's so stupid. Yeah, I have to admit, when you told me that, I was like, yeah. What are you on about? Yeah, yeah. Someone said that thunder is the sound of lightning. Found out two years ago when I was 22, thought I'd tell my entire workplace in the morning meeting. 60 plus people. Turns out they all knew that. Got called
Starting point is 00:49:17 lightning for a while. That's a cool nickname though. There's personal revelations, things that you found out after everyone else. Someone said, I just realized last night after watching the news about that NASA rocket going to the moon, that the moon does not spin around. Does the moon not spin around? No, we spin around. I know we spin around, but it is the moon not on an axis as well.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Does the moon go around us? No. Yes, producer Claude. It technically spins, but it's always facing the same direction. So the dark side is always the dark side, the light side is always the light side. So we never have seen, and that's why they said they were like, we've never seen this picture of the moon because it's always spinning. Oh, so it goes around us?
Starting point is 00:50:00 Yeah. Does it go around us or do we turn within the moon? I thought we go around. Both. So the moon goes around? So the moon goes around us, we go around and we also go around the sun. But the sun stays put. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Or is it hurtling through space? No, but the sun orbits. What? What? Oh, stop talking quick. Do you want to keep going? No, you're stopping. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:24 No. I saw the exact moment in Clint's eyes where he was like, no, that ain't right. Uh-oh. I'm having a personal revelation right now. I've got to stop. I've got to stop. It doesn't align with my personal brand to be the dumb one. Excuse you.
Starting point is 00:50:42 I'm not saying you are. I'm not saying it's yours. Oh, that's fine then. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Producer Ella just put her hand up She goes, It's me. Play Z-Eames, Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Gen Z versus Millennial is what I want to do now. Not that I think we should be put up against us. No, no, no, no. And I think we should stay unified and remember, guys, it's not Gen Z versus millennial. It's everyone against the boomers. Okay? That's how we run this thing.
Starting point is 00:51:06 That's how we survive. And we're sorry that we forget about you all the time, Gen X. Oh, Gen X. Poor Gen X. Always gets forgotten. Well, Gen X is included in this. Okay. I have a list of sentences that will make sense to millennials and Gen X's.
Starting point is 00:51:23 And boomers? I don't know about the boomers. But you technically, I guess. But will they make sense to a Gen Z? We have a Gen Z on staff. Her name is producer Ella. Good morning, producer Ella. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Are you at the older end of the Gen Zeds? I've been shunned. I think, and I don't mean to age shame you, but this might be the first time in your life that you're too old for something. That hurts. I don't know how. I feel. Because how old are you? 25. You're an elder Gen Z. What year? 2000. You were born in 2000? Yeah. Okay, so the start of Gen Z is 1997. Oh yeah. And then it
Starting point is 00:51:57 ends in 2012. So she is at the older end. You're at the upper end. Yeah. But that's okay. I don't like this. Older and wiser. I told you age would come for you eventually. Yeah, I've got interns running this place. Oh no. Please welcome our younger Jin Zid, our intern, Sophie. Hello. Sophie, you're 20? Yes. Born in... 2005.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Two thousand. George is in the corner of the room. She just went, what the hell? I think this is the first time I hurt my hip. In 2000. Takes me back. The thing that was my internship. So these sentences will make sense to every millennial in this room.
Starting point is 00:52:41 And I want you to explain to us. what they mean. Okay. I think you should test producer Ella as well. Okay. You're going to have Ella as a phone a friend. Okay, yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:52 And you can use her twice. Oh. So choose wisely. First sentence for you, what does this mean? How many texts do you have left? Um, is that like your phone? There's like text coming through. Like, oh, like you're out.
Starting point is 00:53:11 You're out with your friends. Mm-hmm. And like you can like text your friends, certain amount of time and you've got this many text left. That's what it is. Real? Kind of. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:53:22 Kind of have to give it to her. Yeah, I wanted to start on a good foot. You used to get a certain amount of text per month that you were allowed to send on your plan. Which she kind of did say that. And once you ran out of text, you couldn't send anymore. No, I was. That's what I meant.
Starting point is 00:53:36 I was, yeah. Millennial sentences, Ken of Gen Z, explain them. Give me a pencil. My cassette is stuck. Yeah, no. Ella. Are you going to find a friend for this one?
Starting point is 00:53:50 So he doesn't even know what a cassette is. Ella, can you explain that one? Yeah, I think you wind the tape in, eh? With a pen. What? With the pen. Nice, Ella. Yeah, with the pencil.
Starting point is 00:54:01 Yeah, well done. Well done. Yeah, you've done well there. Yeah. Blowing it and then put it back in and it'll work. Careful. Careful. Just blowing it.
Starting point is 00:54:13 My line just went straight to something else. Yeah, let me, ready? I'll do an action for you. You ready? Okay, yeah. That was actually perfect. Was that like a DVD? So, he's like, I've heard of these DVDs.
Starting point is 00:54:34 Yeah, it rings him out. No, it's like a gaming cartridge for a Nintendo or a VCR cassette. You take it out. A VCR is like a tape. Why are you blowing on it? We don't know. We don't know. We don't know. It's just what you did. We don't know the science behind it, but it always worked.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Okay. So don't forget to shut your computer down before Y2K to be safe. Yeah, got to close it. She was born in 2005. She wasn't around for Y2K. But to close it, the computer. Why do we shut our computers down for Y2K? No clue.
Starting point is 00:55:06 What's Y2K? Don't know. In 1999, everybody thought the world was going to end at midnight on the year 2000 because they weren't sure if computers could do that date. Would tick over to the year 2000. They thought the world was going to crumble.
Starting point is 00:55:24 No, I've heard of this. Yeah, yeah. So we all had to shut down our Hewlett-Packard computers at home. Right, okay. She's never heard of it. No, I have, yeah. Okay, explain what does this millennial sentence mean? I can't go online.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Mum's waiting for a call. More than two people can't be online at the same time. Like it, you got to wait. Why? Because... What do you mean? Oh, because she's on the phone, and you can't... Two people couldn't be on the phone at the same time.
Starting point is 00:55:49 So you have to wait until she gets off the phone so that you can use the phone. But I don't want to go on the phone. I want to go online. You want to go on the internet. Oh, because the phone's on the internet, so you have to wait. Oh, you have to give it to it. You've got to give it to it. That was the great explanation that one.
Starting point is 00:56:02 Turns out if you say enough words altogether, you might get it right. Yes. Okay, what about this one? Just delete all the punctuation and take some of the spaces out and then send it. Then it all fit. Word count? Did you have a certain amount of words? And so the ticks couldn't be, have that.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Keep saying words. Keep saying words. Text couldn't have a certain amount of max words, so you had to delete the spaces so you could fit all the text in the thing. That's right! Yes! Well done. 160 characters.
Starting point is 00:56:34 That was how long a text message could be. And you paid per text. So when I used to text people... Yes, that was the big one. I used to put a capital letter at the start of each word and not have any spaces. So I could get more characters into a text. But how do they read the text?
Starting point is 00:56:51 It was like a code, but only we understood. letters so you can kind of read it. Wow. You're actually doing okay. I'm really quite proud. I was impressed with that one. This is the last millennial sentence that you need to understand. Okay. As a Gen Z, can you explain to me what this means? I poked Claudia last night, but I don't think she noticed. That was just a personal one I put in there. I don't know how it got into the list, actually.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Is this a stitch up? It's an actual, like... Yeah, this is a thing. Okay. Also, Claude, poke me back. Yeah. Yeah. Was it like an app? You poke your friend to see if they're active?
Starting point is 00:57:37 No. Kind of, yeah. Yep. You send them like, you try to call them. You're like a little press the button. No, too many words. I feel like you've got to give it to it at least half a point. I'll give it to you for the app thing.
Starting point is 00:57:47 We're talking about Facebook. It's how you used to get each other's attention. You would poke each other on Facebook. What would the app be called if it was just for poking people? Poker? poke me? I don't know. Poked a poke. Oh, well, this, look,
Starting point is 00:58:02 this test doesn't mean that you are dumb. It means that we are old, okay? That's all that this means. That makes me feel better. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It makes us feel worse, so. Well, you didn't have to point that out, did you? All right. Hey, Claude, you up for a bit of poking?
Starting point is 00:58:19 ZDM's Bree and Clint Podcast. A lot of people pointing out that you can still poke people on Facebook. I poke people all the time. Are you poking? Yeah. You're a poker? Yeah. You're out there big, big poking.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Who are you poking? I don't know. Who are you poking? Do you get many pokes back? Not really. And that's the awkward part about poking, but that's the name of the game, Clint. It's not always... Doesn't have to be reciprocal.
Starting point is 00:58:46 Not always reciprocate. Bree and Clint's Small Town Big Deal. This is Small Town Big Deal, a game that we invented to embarrass ourselves. Correct. And God the game has really... come through on that. We have been embarrassed multiple times. It's really humbling, isn't it? Super humbling. We've only ever gotten one point, and when I say we, I mean you. I did, yeah. The concept is, Bree and I are both from small towns. Bree is from a country town in Australia called Stanthorpe.
Starting point is 00:59:18 And I'm from a small town by comparison. I'm from Rotorua. And so far, only one place in Rotorua has heard of me when we've called. Yeah. Who is the bigger deal from their small town? It is mine. turn today for you to call somewhere from my small town. Where have you selected? I've selected somewhere that surely you frequented fairly regularly when you live there. We're going to call Foxy's Bakery in the main street in Stanthor. It's twofold. I know you like a Chico Roll, so you'd be going into the bakery for a Chico Roll, no doubt.
Starting point is 00:59:50 And also, it's like 5 o'clock in the morning in Australia at the moment, so we have to call a bakery. That's true. They'll be the only place that are open. They'll be open. The bakers will be there. Do you think they're going to know you? I would bet, yes. Really?
Starting point is 01:00:05 But I'll just, I'm not going to say anything else. I want you to get a point, so I want you to be right. I really want, I need a point bad. Claudia, when you're ready, please connect the call to Foxy's Bakery in Stanthorpe, Queensland, where we're hoping they've heard of Brianna Thomasel. Got to be. Hello, Foxy's Bakery. Fiona speaking.
Starting point is 01:00:28 Hey Fiona, it's Clint calling from Zed. in New Zealand. How are you? Good, how are you? Yeah, good, good. Quick question. I work with someone who's from Stanthorpe. Yeah. Brianna.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Yes! I knew, I had a feeling I didn't even need to say her name. UGB, Fiona Monot. I knew it was you. Yeah. Hello, Brianna. Hello, mate. Oh, God, you've just won me a point in a game
Starting point is 01:01:00 we play called Small Town Big Deal where I've won no points and I knew as soon as you answered. As soon as you answered, I was like this is a sure thing here. Definitely, yeah. Fiona and I went to school together. Of course you did.
Starting point is 01:01:14 You know where they don't know Bree and Stanthorpe, Fiona? They don't know her at the Big Apple. Oh, really? Those A-holt. And they had no idea who any of her family members were at the Stanthorpe Cheese Factory. Oh my God. They're all hopeless.
Starting point is 01:01:26 See, they're not local enough. They've been here long enough. They're dead to me, Fiona. And the only place I like to frequent and eat when I'm in Stanthorpe is Foxy's Bakery. Nailed it. Actually, when your missus was in here. And I was like, I swear that's Brianna's girlfriend. And then she goes, no, I'm waiting for, to see what he wants.
Starting point is 01:01:44 And I'm like, oh, that's weird. It makes me any your dad walks in. I'm like, ah, it is. This is the most small town thing I've ever heard. Yeah. Even my kids would have been able to tell you that. They all know me there at Foxies. Hey, Fiona, thank you.
Starting point is 01:01:57 I owe you one. Yeah, you do. Good day, guys. See you, mate. What's Bree's usual order at the bakery, Fiona? What's she getting if she comes on? Well, her mum wanted me to make her crustalie. So they can engage her buddy on the weekend.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Cross-deley. They do good everything at Voxys. What's a cross-deley? It's an Italian pastry, like flaky. It's so yum. Delicious. Thanks, Fee. We appreciate it. Thanks, Fiona.
Starting point is 01:02:20 We are, bye. You're on the board. Bree, well done. About time, eh. I needed that win. I needed it bad. Dead is Brinklant. From small town big deal.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Someone said Rotarua is not a small town. Smaller than where we live. What's the population of Rotorua? I think it's like 70,000. Let me have a look. Rotorua. You wouldn't call that a small town? A small city, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:02:45 I'd say small city. Yeah, yeah. But for the purposes of the game, Small Town, Big Deal, it's a small town. District approximately 74,000. Then what's the population of Stanthor? Did you look it up? 5,000.
Starting point is 01:03:02 I'm going to say it's a little bit smaller. So, yeah, of course the lady at the bakery knows your name. Let's do your birthday bangers. Number one songs when you turn 16. Who's up first? Daniel's up first. Morning, Daniel. Gidey, Dan.

We did not just give Rihanna the hot travel agent a Chris Brown song for her birthday banger. Sorry, sorry, Rihanna. We gave Rihanna, Chris Brown. Wasn't planned. But it's still a binger.
Starting point is 01:04:57 But it is a banger. And we say it's a Jordan Spark song. Yeah, yeah. We don't mention Chris Brown when we're talking about nowhere. Yeah, yeah. He is half the song, though, but yeah, we just don't mention him. No, I'd say he's 40%. There's way less than half.

Starting point is 01:06:10 I have to go to first one. Describe, yeah. Is it because of Daniel's voice, the hot fireman? It's because of bulging biceps? No. Is it because of his big hose? Is it because you want him to rescue you and a fireman's carry? Because you know he can come down a pole.

Starting point is 01:07:19 Oh God. I'm blaming you. I'm actually blaming you because you do the numbers. You run the birthday banger computer. It just goes to show you don't listen to me. You ask them the question. You asked them the birthday question.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Yeah. And then you do the thingy? And I'm busy doing the math in my head. You say their birthday twice. It's quick math. You're the one that's meant to be like watching and listening. Either way, we've had 45 texts that all point out that it was Rihanna's birthday and we didn't even acknowledge it.
Starting point is 01:07:45 Rihanna? What didn't you say? Oh, I don't know. It was a bit awkward. I was going to say it, but I was like, oh, surely they'll... We're looking for someone to blame and we want to blame you now. It just goes to show that you don't want to make it all about you, but we're about to make it all about you now, Rihanna.
Starting point is 01:08:04 When someone goes, what's your day to birth? You go, today. We're going to make it all about Rihanna, and we're going to sing her. Happy birthday, Marilyn Monroe-style.

Starting point is 01:08:34 Happy birthday Happy birthday That was beautiful Thank you so much Let's make it two key this warehouse price backs after that Dead Ames Brie and Clint Podcast Right now we're asking you about your dacking stories
Starting point is 01:08:53 Downtrowing, pants Do you guys not say dacking? On occasion I think downtrow is more Common than decking Down trow sounds sexual decking doesn't sound far off. Or the decking sounds like a weed thing. Who decked you?
Starting point is 01:09:07 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Same thing, though. It's where you pull someone's pants down to cause embarrassment. And then point and laugh. Yeah. It's a weird tradition. Do you think it's being phased out? Or do you think kids are still big on the...
Starting point is 01:09:19 I hope the sack whack is being phased out as well. Oh, the sack tap? Yeah. You never had to suffer it. What do you care about the sack tap? We had the girl version. Is it tit-tap? No.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Oh, veg tip. No, what was it called? What's the girl one and how does it work? I won't do it, obviously. The flapwack, I think. Oh, and is it like this? Yep. And it hurts.
Starting point is 01:09:45 Especially if you get the right, you know, flick of the wrist. Obviously, I can't participate, but I reckon you, Claudia and Ella should enter a... Should we have our own game? You should enter a flapwack war. Who wants a flat whack war? Absolutely not. But thank you so much for your consideration. I love how you'll always give it a go, Ella.
Starting point is 01:10:01 I'll get you. you know that you don't know when it's going to happen and Bree doesn't know when it's going to happen. Oh, I thought we like are in a ring. No, no, no, no. You just consent to being in a flapwack war and at any time you can get flapwacked. Of course.
Starting point is 01:10:16 Also, you could also perform a flapwack at any moment. Someone texts and they said, Brie, it's the box shot. Of course it is. Oh, of course. How could I forget? I like the flapwack better. Me too. That's fun.
Starting point is 01:10:28 We asked you for your embarrassing, um, down trail, decking, pants and stories. Someone said, I accidentally decked myself at Intermediate. I was running outside during lunch and the wind, thanks Wellington, blew my skirt right up. Yeah, dead. I went to push my
Starting point is 01:10:44 skirt back down. I missed and pulled my own undies down. I died dead. Jeez. That's bad luck, isn't it? People would have just thought that you were like exposing yourself. That is bad luck. But you'd run out into the street to show everybody your bits. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:11:00 Oh, what an awful act. accident. This one's great. It says, my friend did this to our deputy principal at school. We were 16 and it was swimming sports carnival. He was standing on the bleachers, addressing the whole school in his togs.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Everyone saw it wasn't good. Wait, so the deputy principal was up there in his togs addressing the school, so he's up there on the bleachers, talking to the whole school, so everyone's attention is on him, and
Starting point is 01:11:32 your friend has had the cahones to come up behind the deputy principal and pull these shorts down. It's kind of legendary. Wow. Like you're definitely getting suspended and you're never making prefect and it will have repercussions on the rest of your life. But in that moment, you would have been... I don't know if there's many things that could be worse. You would have been the king of the school. Oh.
Starting point is 01:11:55 Don't do that, kids. Don't do it. Don't do that. Yeah. We're taking kids to a basketball training session and, and my hubby thought it would be funny to whip my top up halfway along the court. He didn't realize that I'd chosen to be bra free that day. The poor parents on the sideline got an eyeful.
Starting point is 01:12:13 That's unfortunate. What is wrong with your husband that even if you did have a bra on, he thought it would be funny to whip your top up at a kid's basketball training session? That's one of those incredibly bad room reads. What about how this is brilliant. It says, at an Indian wedding, there's a tradition where the bride's side tries to steal the groom shoes. It's all part of a little fun game, so there I was fully committed trying to grab the shoe from a groomsman who was about six feet tall. Holding it high above his head, I'm about five foot one.
Starting point is 01:12:52 So already I'm at a disadvantage. In the moment, without thinking, I grabbed onto his leg to pull myself up at the exact. same time he jumped. He also happened to be wearing pants with a very loose waistband. And I accidentally panced him in front of a thousand plus people. Safe to say, he hasn't looked me in the eyes since. That's brilliant. See, that's an accident, isn't it? Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:13:25 So many variations for the female version of the sack. tap. What's the other ones? We can't say any of them on the radio. Oh, I do remember the CH, the CH, yep. The C hit. There's another text about when you got pants or when you dack someone. It says, when I was in kindergarten, my dad came to pick me up. He was the only dad there with all the mums. That's a bit cute. He was wearing track pants. And when I came running over, really excited to see him, I flung my arms around his waist and then accidentally slid down pulling his pants down in front of all the mums. I don't personally remember this, but my dad definitely does.
Starting point is 01:14:07 That'll teach him wearing track pants, are you? Not dad getting his Willie out at the kindi, and all of the mums there to witness. Dad! Dad, put it away. Mom hears about it. You're never doing school pickup again. The kindi, hey, the kindi just rang me.
Starting point is 01:14:27 They said the weirdest thing. You did a nun. Apparently there's some creep hanging around around the kindi pulling his pants down in front of the kids. Play ZM's Bree and Clint on Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from three on ZM.
