The ZM Podcast Network. ZM's Bree and Clint, cheers to KFC. Grab KFC's crispy box for only $9.99. Tonight, we are going to witness the most anticipated show in the history of professional radio. ZM, Bree and Clint. What's going on everybody? Welcome to Brie and Clint show on a Thursday. It's officially one week until we kick off our Blockbuster Binge-a-thon today. Are you getting more and more excited to be, you know, one of us eventually? Yeah, I am. I was a bit depressed to think today Claudia suggested we might only get through 10 movies in 24 hours.

Doesn't seem like a lot, eh? It doesn't seem like that many movies. If you've missed it, from Thursday at 7 o'clock until Friday at 7 o'clock, we're going to watch movies back to back to back to try and get up the number of movies that I've seen. And once we watch all the Sex and the City films, then there's not much time for anything else. Is there three? There's three, isn't there?

There's three. Or is there two? Two or three? Either way, there's a couple too many. I should know that. I think there's two. There's the one where they went to Abu Dhabi. Yes. Then there's the first one where he runs off and they don't get married.

No, there's three. We don't have to put Sex and the City on the list. Please. No, there's two. Please, please, please. Okay, what would you rather? Watch 10 of the greatest films of all time

or we can watch the entire series of Sex and the City from front to back? Well, I'd rather watch the 10 greatest movies of all time. Oh, you're missing out.

Sex and the City is fantastic. That's like a no-brainer. Okay, today on the show, some details on how you can find the golden bird thanks to Bluebird. We're hunting that thing down and we've got some details on how you can find the golden bird thanks to Bluebird. We're hunting that thing down and we've got some details for that on you very shortly. But first, let's get into a round of Tradie versus Lady where you wouldn't read about it, but the scores are level again.

I don't know how this is happening. It is just that even. If you want to be a part of it, you can give us a call right now. Bree and Clint. It's Tradie versus Lady. Three, two, one, let's go. All right, the Tradies and the Ladies, we do love it. Kicks off our show every day and there's 50 bucks up for grabs.

The score's a level at 36 all. Let's go to our Lady first, Colleen from Christchurch. She's 20 and she has got three cats. Welcome to the show, Tara. Hi, Tara. Oh. Cat chewed through the phone cords. Tara.

Can we get Tara back while we introduce our tradie? Our tradie is from Mutta Mutta. He's also 20 and he... Oh, he's 20 years old with the back of an 80-year-old. Welcome to the show, Corey. Hello, Corey. Hi. What's wrong with the old back, Corey?

Oh, it's just no good. No good. But you're only 20. Are you a landscaper? No, no, no. I work harder than those fellas. You work harder than a landscaper? What are you, plasterer?

No, builder. Builder. Builder. Yeah, right. Best bone of the country. You're going to need that back for the next 40 years, you know, eh? Yeah. Mate, go get some acupuncture or something.

Our lady is here. She's back. She's 20 and she's got three cats. Welcome to the show, Tara. Hi, Tara. Hi. Out of the three cats, have you got a favourite? I do, yeah.

You're not meant to say you do. I know, I know. What do you say that anything more than two cats is crazy cat lady territory? Yeah, possibly. Just a little bit. Wait, was that one of the cats? Okay, Tara, you're on the lady buzzer. Corey, you're on the tradie buzzer.

The first one of you two to give us three correct answers will get the win and the $50 cash. Good luck, guys. Here comes question number one. Our Blockbuster Binge-a-thon starts in one week today. Name the classic film that this line is from. What else can we be forgetting? Kevin!

It's a Christmas film. It's got Macaulay Culkin in it. No, the 20-year-olds have not seen Home Alone. Home Alone is the film. Put it on your list for Christmas films this year. Question number two. What popular condiment that is red was once sold as a medicinal cure for diarrhea? Trady.

Corey. Is it tomato sauce? It is tomato sauce or ketchup. We would have accepted as well. One to the tradies. Question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me what this song is. Nobody want to see us together.

Oh, tradies. Yes, Corey. Is it Neo? Oh, very, no. Tara? It's the right era. Tara? I have no idea. No. Oh, Akon. Yeah, Akon. Akon is what we were looking for.

No points there. Question number four. North, St, Chicago and Psalm are the names of which celebrity's children? Yes, Tara. Kim Kardashian. It is, of course, Kim Kardashian. Sounds like a menu to something. All right, we're one apiece. Question number five.

Which famous footballer was roasted on Netflix earlier this week? Was it Peyton Manning, Travis Kelsey or Tom Brady? Lady. Yes, Tara. Tom Brady. It was Tom Brady, the goat. Two to the ladies, one to the tradies. You need this one, Corey, to stay in it.

Question number six. Paul Allen co-founded Microsoft with who? Tradie. Yes, Corey. Bill Gates. It is Bill Gates, which brings us to a tie-break question. Here it comes. How many seasons has basketball star LeBron James played in the NBA?

Is it 12, 17 or 21? Katie. Yes, Tara. 17. No. Corey. What were the answers, sorry? 21 or 12?

12. No. No, it's 21. Has he been in the NBA that long? Yeah, he's been in there over two decades. Isn't that ridiculous? Okay, well, we need to get to another question. We go to our standard decider.

What colour are my undies? Brady. Yes, Corey. Green. No. Tara. Red. No.

All right, we go to our next question. What colour are my undies? Brady. Yes, Corey. Hot pink. I wish, but no. Tara? Black.

Yeah. She's got it. She's a lady. Oh, she's a lady. I like that Corey didn't actually believe you had hot pink undies. It was just too funny not to say. How dare you, Corey? I could be a hot pink G-string kind of gal.

I'm going to wear them tomorrow. 50 bucks cash coming your way, Tara. Congratulations. Nice work. Great game, guys. It's an eight-question round of Trading First Lady. Nine-question, and it ended in our undies. It was a rip-off.

Bree and Clint. Please welcome to the show New Zealand's preeminent film expert, interviewer to the stars, and the People's Movie Critic. It's Kate Rogers. Yeah. I don't even know how to spell preeminent. What the hell does that mean? It means you're the supreme, you're the superior,

you are the quintessential movie expert in this country. Stop it, guys. When people think movies, they think Kate Rogers. It's almost like I need a job. Is anyone listening? Did you hear that intro? Universe? I like it.

Put it out there. See what comes back, Kate. We need you at the moment. We need your expertise. I need you, Kate. I need you. I need someone in the room that has the same passion as I do for films. Yeah.

Because Clint here, over the last six years, has pained me. He has not seen the classics. He's seen no movies, and I just can't comprehend how a man of his age hasn't seen any of these films. So when I got the emergency call-up, which is kind of the bat phone and the bat thing in the sky, saying, hey, we need you to come in, what you were basically saying to me

is I'm in the presence of an absolute Neanderthal. Is that what you're saying? Are you saying? Your words, your words. It's arguably the only thing wrong with me. Is it arguably the only thing wrong with Clint? Look, look, no comment. So what do you want?

What do you want from me? What I want from you. Good, solid beating by the sounds of it. I want from you an expert, someone who knows great cinema, to help us collate the list because we're going to do this in 24 hours. We need to put together a list of movies in that time that he needs to see. God, this has to be the movies and where you put them. I'd say the scheduling is absolutely key.

We haven't even considered that. No. The ebb and flow. I know. You need some ebb and flow. Yeah. And a lot of Red Bull by the sounds of it. Yes.

So you need to start almost in a way just with something that's really going to grab you by the throat. Mad Max, Fury Road on the big screen. Okay. You're going to go start with that and then you're just going to go, goodness gracious, that was intense. But what I didn't get, I didn't really get a lot of romance. So I'm going to go straight for the notebook after that. Okay. I have actually seen the get, I didn't really get a lot of romance. So I'm going to go straight for The Notebook after that. Okay. I have actually seen The Notebook and I didn't really enjoy it.

So it's one of the films that I have seen. Let's walk out, Kate. Let's walk out. I don't really get the appeal. I found it a bit cheesy. What do you mean? I thought it was a bit like. It's a love story that spans decades.

All I'm saying is, sorry, you have to strike that one from the list. All right, I'm going to strike it. All right, if you want then something romantic with Brad Pitt in it, why don't you go for Legends of the Fall if you want a love story? Great movie. What's it about?

It's about Brad Pitt without a shirt on. Okay, great. I know, you can appreciate that. I mean, lock it in. Sure. It's a fantastic movie. That's all you need to know. After that, I think you're going to need

a little bit more kind of pumping up a little bit, maybe some really, really, just a lot of murder. Yes. So you're going to do John Wick, and you're going to do John Wick 1 and 2. I've always wanted to watch the John Wicks. You've always wanted to watch that. It's on his very long list.

I am genuinely feeling like physical pain. People say they're good, the John Wicks. Do they? Yeah. People say they're good, Bree. Yeah, apparently. they? Yeah. People say they're good, really. Yeah, apparently. Keanu Reeves. Just a couple of people.

All right, and you're going to finish that off with Point Break, just to stick with the Keanu theme. So you're going to go two John Wicks and then Point Break. Okay. Patrick Swayze, old school 80s, directed by Catherine Bigelow, who went on to win an Oscar for The Hurt Locker, which you should also see. And when it comes to female filmmakers,

you have to come and dive into the New Zealand vernacular and you have to do Nicky Caro's Whale Rider, obviously. Have you seen that? I would hand in my passport if I hadn't seen Whale Rider. It's amazing. Okay, you're not doing too badly. Yeah. So I will say that you have to go out into space

where no one can hear you scream and you have to watch Alien and Aliens and you will be scared absolutely witless and you will need a group hug after that. I still have nightmares to this day from those films. Is that the one where the thing comes out of the stomach? The chest

cavity. Yeah, right. What else have you got going? Let me just tell you, I just want to see your face when I tell you some of the films that this guy has not seen. Pretty Woman. I want to though. Oh, that's a good start. I can tell you what it's about. Yeah, I want to go to Peru and I still haven't been there, but that's great.

Never seen Pretty Woman. He's never seen Finding Nemo. You're going to run out of time. Why don't you make it a 48 hour? This is the thing, Kate, is that it needs to be a well curated list. I think scheduling is important. I'm happy to give you a little bit of a hand with that. Kate, Roger, that's a great place for us to,

we have not even just start, that's great guidance, and we will take you up on the scheduling of the movies to get the cadence right. Yeah, cadence. Good word. Yeah. And afterwards, maybe I could be a film reviewer. Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, all right?

Let's leave it to the experts like Kate, okay? Silence is the worst sit on radio. I'm so sorry. I should have said instantly no. I didn't mean to just stare at you blankly because, yeah, this isn't television, is it? Anyway, hey, a joy. Thanks for having me.

Thank you. I was reading this article on the New Zealand Herald today where they were talking about whether you should delete the pictures of your ex off your Instagram grid after you guys break up. We have discussed this on the show before, haven't we? Yeah. Yeah, and I think everybody has had the discussion with their friends or at least with themselves when you come to a breakup.

You go, what do I do with all these social media posts? Especially if you're a big relationship poster. Yeah. If you went, like Jacinda said, if you went hard and early on that relationship, it would look a bit off because I guess so much of your online persona would revolve around. Well, imagine if you start to get out in the dating scene and then they find you on Instagram. Totally.

And then they're like, who's this dude? They're all over her page. Yeah, because did you do a post to say you were breaking up? Yeah, what do you, yeah, no. Did you do a post just by yourself? Were you like, I'm single now. So you're like, bullet points it? This girl's in a relationship. Put a full stop on it. Clearly. The article says

on one hand, it's over and they're not part of your life anymore. And it could be quite hurtful to see them on your social media. But on the other hand, you can't pretend that that part of your life didn't happen. Or can you? Well, you can if you want to. You can. That's the fun thing about social media.

You can just delete them and pretend they never happened. And if you move to another city, you can pretend it really never happened. And if you change your name, oh my God, the world's your oyster. Have you seen that show You? You can do whatever you want. Yeah, it's a good show to base your life on. Yeah. Not the glass box bit.

I just want it clear that I'm not endorsing, if anyone's listening, I'm not endorsing the glass box bit. Start afresh. What do you think? Look, the article offered one good idea. It said you don't have to delete the posts and pretend it never happened. You can archive them in your Instagram. So if you hit archive, it goes into a folder that only you can see,

but it's still there. And if you need to revisit it, because what if someone wrote something on that post that you really liked or it was at someone's event that you really liked and you don't want the thing gone forever? It can still be there, I guess. Is that what you would do? Or would you just delete altogether?

I'm trying to think back. And I think if you go all the way back on my social media, like my last relationship was probably in there. So I don't think I'd do anything. I think I just, you know, it was what it was. Leave it. But again, doesn't it depend on the type of breakup? It 100% depends on the type of breakup.

Like if someone has cheated on you or treated you like absolute crap, then of course you're probably going to delete everything because you don't want to be reminded of it, which fair enough. Do you delete them from your Instagram story highlights? Like how much of a purge are we doing? Yeah, like depends on the breakup. Depends on the breakup. Do you delete them from your Instagram story highlights? Like how much of a purge are we doing? Yeah, like depends on the breakup. Depends on the breakup.

I think. Producers, deleting your ex from your social media, yes or no? I feel like you've touched on some good points. It depends on how it ended. It was bad. But if you're still friends with them, delete them up. Ella, when you broke up with your boyfriend for three months, did you delete him off your Instagram? It was a week. Was it only a week him off your Instagram? It was a week.

Was it only a week? Where were you? It was one week. It was one week. No, I didn't have time to think about that. But lucky you didn't delete. Thankfully. Yeah.

But yeah, what you've said, everyone's said the right things, I reckon. If the photo is very lovey-dovey, then maybe I'll take it down. Oh, that's a good thing. Oh, it's true. Like a kiss or like a sunset. I would never post that anyway.

Maybe you can get rid of the post that says, happy birthday, my darling. I love you to the moon and back. Yeah, Mike. You are my one and only forever. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. You can probably get rid of that one. My Instagram's like an ex-graveyard

because I just leave it all there. Should we go digging? I just collect them all and just, no, I just think. What's that book, how many husbands of? Oh, Evelyn someone. Yeah, that's like my Instagram. Seven husbands of Evelyn. Oh, good book.

I just think at the end of the day, like they're a part of your past, and like you said, unless it's really horrible and you don't want to have that on your Instagram, like they're memories. I mean, or if it's, you know, like some nakey photos you don't want to have that on your Instagram. Like, they're memories. I mean, or if it's, you know, like some nakey photos, I'd probably get rid of them. Here's the thing, too. Here's the thing. If you want to delete them, if you do delete them and your ex finds out that you deleted

them, the only way they know is if they went back through your social media. And that means they were back on your page after you guys broke up. So maybe you should delete them as a little honey trap to see. A great test. Yeah. Ooh, a honey trap. To see who notices. I like the sound of that.

Because how often do you really scroll back on someone's Instagram account unless you're perving on them, you know? Yeah. You like every photo on the way through. You're going to set a bunch of honey traps. And it's crazy because the guy I'm dating's name is Winnie. And he's going to fall right into it. He's a bear with no pants.

Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. Who's gutted about Olivia Rodrigo? Me. She announced this morning. Not another one. Her Down Under dates.

And Kiwi Olivia Rodrigo fans have been hanging out for this because surely she's coming to New Zealand. Surely she's coming to New Zealand on the Guts World Tour. No, she has announced two shows in Melbourne and two shows in Sydney and no shows in New Zealand later on this year. I'm so disappointed. And I think I'm even more disappointed than Billie Eilish

because I'd heard rumours and there'd been stuff on like fan pages and like Reddit about these were the rumoured dates that Olivia was coming so I literally locked it into my mind where I was like she's coming. It's another one. It's another blow where these artists just go to Australia and we

talked about it when it happened with Billie Eilish. And I honestly believe that the Taylor Swift show, because that is the benchmark for, well, not the benchmark, that's the pinnacle of live events now. By skipping New Zealand, it's made New Zealand skippable. That's how I feel about it. New Zealand is not skippable. I don't think we're skippable either.

And they're like, there's only 5 million people here. There's 5 million people in Sydney alone. Yeah, I know. But if you have a concert here, we'll all come. Like from Invercargill, we'll come only 5 million people here. There's 5 million people in Sydney alone. Yeah, I know, but if you have a concert here, we'll all come. Like, from Invercargill, we'll come. 5 million people would come. From Dunedin, we'll come. You can have the show in Dunedin, and we will come.

And people will travel from wherever. If you are a gutted Olivia Rodrigo fan, and there are a lot, our producer Ella literally cried today when she found out that Olivia wasn't coming here. Yeah, like Brianna, I had it stuck in my head. Yeah, surely she's coming. I've seen the rumours online. Yeah. Had it there.

It was also only my birthday, so I was like, perfect. Well, you're not alone. If you go and look at the Olivia Rodrigo post on her Instagram announcing this tour, the top comments are... No New Zealand shows? That's so funny of you to accidentally leave off the Brisbane dates. You're so silly. No one goes to Brisbane or Adelaide or Perth either.

At least it's in your country. Someone else said, oh, you're so silly. You forgot to put the Malaysia dates on there. And then someone else said, I'm so sick of living in Perth. So we're not the only people who got left off. And we're not the only people who get left off. But I didn't think we were Perth. I know we get left off. But I didn't think we were Perth. I know we're New Zealand, but I didn't think we were Perth.

New Zealand's not Perth. I think the government needs to start subsidising for the cost of going to Australia to see concerts. No, but seriously, the government should start subsidising for shows to come to New Zealand. Or that. Because they're so good for the economy. One or the other.

You know? Yep. Come on, Luxon. Give me some money to get some air points. I'm going to go see Rodrigo. Yeah, come on, Luxon. Come on, Luxon. Come on, Luxon.

I want the works as well. I want to watch a movie on the way there. That's the latest. Bree and Clint. A mum has been left fuming. Absolutely fuming after her 11-year-old daughter has come back from a sleepover with piercings. Oh. Really?

Wait, hear the details first and then you decide, okay? Yeah, okay, yeah. So apparently the next door neighbour, they have a 13-year-old and she wanted the 11-year-old daughter to come over for a sleepover. Yeah. And I think there was 13 and 14-year-olds there, so she was the youngest. Anyway, she comes back from the sleepover, and the mum said she had already had her ears pierced.

So just one. Okay. Like one piercing. One in each ear, yep. The 11-year-old daughter came back with seven piercings in one ear and three in the other. Jeez, keen. That's a lot of piercings.

That's a lot. She must have a high pain tolerance. Where are you even putting them when you've got seven? Well, you go around that curvy bit at the top, don't you? Then you've got the tragus. Yeah. It's quite hard to pierce the part at the top because it's cartilage. My wife has her tragus pierced and said it's one of the most painful things she's ever experienced.

I had my tragus pierced and it got ripped out during a soccer game. And let me tell you, it was very painful. It was quite trendy, I want to say like 10 years ago, and everyone was getting their tragus pierced. Do you get penalised for contact with the tragus? I believe the tragus is a no-go zone in football. Red card, yellow card? Oh, I'd say it's a yellow.

Yellow card. It's a warning. Tragus, yellow card. But if you do the double tragus, it's just straight red. Contact with the septum. That's a red. That's a red. That's a red.

Yep. Yeah. Labrette? On report. On report? On report. I think, yeah. Contact with the perineum, that's a straight red.

Perineum? Yeah. You're not getting the perineum pierced, are you? Some people do. Oh. Let that sink in. Oh. I'm just thinking about walking and how uncomfortable that would be.

Anyway, back to this girl. Did they have like a home piercing kit? How was she able to come back with 10 fresh piercings? It's a great question. They weren't just pushing the needle through with the apple on the back, were they? They might have been. Which you shouldn't do. But if you do, make sure you sterilise the needle first.

Yeah, so make sure you heat the needle up. Or put it in some vodka. Don't do these things, by the way. But if you do put it in vodka, it needs to be really high-proof alcohol vodka, not cheap vodka that won't sterilise anything. Or methylated spirits. Don't doise anything. Or methylated spirits. Methylated don't do these things

but methylated spirits would work well. Yeah. And then just put the apple behind the ear lobe but don't do this. Don't do that. And then just get the needle

that you've sterilised maybe even double sterilised and then just straight through. Straight through. Don't do that though. But don't do that. And then you want to get

ice on it straight away. Rebellious can I say 11 year old-old rebellious kid? I would never have even thought of doing that. I was such a goody two-shoes. Or just rubber arm, susceptible to peer pressure. That too. The neighbour is 13, you're 11, so the neighbour is cooler than you.

The neighbour says it's cool and they're like, do it. You should do it. Yeah, do it. You should do it. Yeah, but like seven, eight. You should do it ten times. She got ten extra piercings. You'd do it. Yeah, do it. You should do it. Yeah, but like seven, eight times. You should do it ten times. She got ten extra piercings. You'd be muffed as the parents.

You'd be like, hey, my child has come home full of holes. And two rubber arms. Like, that's wild. Were you rebellious as a kid? Not hugely. Like, I was quite a good kid. How old were you when you got your eyebrow pierced?

How old were you? 17. Okay. So of age? Yeah. Is that of age? Yeah, 16 and up I think. 16 and up you can go and get what you want pierced. I know it is 16 and up because I was at boarding school and I went and got my nose pierced and then

they threatened to expel me from school. Yeah, right. And I had to go find like this like clear thing to go in my nose. But they were fine with the tragus? No, the tragus came later in life. Yeah, the tragus was later. I think the most rebellious thing I did was at my auntie's wedding when I was 14, I went around and I said to all of my family members,

hey, I've never tried alcohol Can I have a sip of yours? But I said it to every family member How old were you? 14 By 9 o'clock I was steamed Nearly ruined the wedding

Yeah I bet I bet there's a little turd of a kid walking around being like, hey, play the Vanga Boys. Play it, DJ. Play it. This is crazy, man. This is crazy.

What's the most rebellious thing you did as a kid? Probably set the wood heap on fire. Oh, Jesus Christ. That'll do it. Can I just say, though, not on purpose. Not on purpose? Not on purpose. We just wanted to make a little fire, me and my brother,

and it was my dad that came along and said, you need petrol to get that fire really going. So technically I would say it was my dad's fault. You're in the clear, I feel. I think that's his fault. And if anyone's, it's his fault for having such a wonderfully dry woodpile. Exactly. You know? It was wonderfully dry. Don't stack it so well.

0800 dial ZM. We can text him into 9696. We want to know the most rebellious thing you did as a kid. Like the thing you look back on your childhood about and go, oh man I was a little SHIT. I was a rebel.

Man, how did my parents put up with me? Do you remember that? The thing, the one thing. Yeah, what is the thing that comes to mind where you're like, damn, I was a rebel? Remember that kid that was like 12 or 13 and he booked a trip to Bali? No. You don't remember that?

No. I'll tell you that story next. Okay, 0800 dials at M, text 9696. Where's the rebel children at? What's your claim to, not fame, your claim to infamy? Bree and Clint. Okay, 0800 dials at him. Text 9696. Where's the rebel children at? What's your claim to, not fame, your claim to infamy? Brian Clint. What's the most rebellious thing you did as a kid?

An 11-year-old's got in trouble after she went to a sleepover and came back with 10 extra piercings. Oh. 10. 10 is a lot. That's a lot of piercings. These texts that we're getting are wild, so I can only imagine the phone calls are going to be out there as well. We joked before around the ear piercing thing.

Can I say really seriously, don't do any of these things that you're about to hear. If you're a young person going, oh, they got away with it, nah. Yeah. Nah. I don't reckon these people did get away with it. No. And even if they did, they would have come so close to disaster that it's not funny. This is a great thing to listen to of what not to do.

Okay, let's kick it off with this. The most rebellious thing I did as a kid. I stole an ice cream container that was taped shut as an honesty box for a stall on the side of the road. I also told mum that I was staying at a friend's place and then we drove to Wellington from Auckland. I also stole mum's card and went on a shopping spree at Wild Pear. Wow, I was an a-hole. Well, at least they know

now. That is a nightmare child. Well, they know now. So they learnt their lesson. They know that it's wrong. Yeah. You know? But how's mum? Yeah, poor mum. Did she survive? Can you imagine that poor mother? Macy's here. Hi, Macy. Hi she survive? That poor mother. Macy's here. Hi, Macy.

Hi, Macy. Hi, how are you going? You weren't a bad kid, were you, Macy? You weren't rebellious, were you? Not at all, but I would say my mum and dad would say otherwise. Yeah. What did you do? So I was eight years old.

All I wanted was to go to the dairy. So I thought, and dad said, no, no, you don't need to. So I thought, take it upon myself to make up some fake raffle tickets and sell them to people, old people. What? You're an eight-year-old

who created a fake raffle and sold tickets to old people. How much were the tickets? It's all $2 each and I got 50 bucks from them so I thought it wasn't too bad. Yeah, because you're a cute little eight-year-old.

I'd buy a raffle ticket for a cute little eight-year-old. You did bloody well, Macy. Can I ask, do you remember what was the prize that you were saying they would win in the raffle? Honestly, you would have to be pretty silly to think that it was okay for me to even do that, but I'd just write their name down, their street address and their street number.

Yeah, yeah, what was the prize? What was the prize? What was the prize? I don't even think there was one. Yeah, right. She didn't need one. To be honest, they probably knew you were lying, but they're like, I like this kid's attitude. You can have two bucks. Entrepreneur. Cheeky little shit.

Entrepreneur! More like an eight-year-old hustler. My brother and I broke into our primary school by removing some of the slat windows on the weekend so we could play games on the computers and eat the ice blocks that they had in the staff room freezer. I mean, that's harmless. I love that you broke into your school.

Don't break into anywhere, but at least they didn't do anything bad like this person. They said, I went to girls' boarding school and I set fire to the piano room because I didn't want to do lessons school and I set fire to the piano room because I didn't want to do lessons anymore. You set fire to the piano room? I wonder how bad it was. Okay, don't do it.

Like we said at the start, I feel like we have to reiterate. Do not do any of these things. Don't even come close to any of these things. Anonymous, hi. Hi, Anonymous. Hi. What's the most rebellious thing you did as a child? We were probably about 14 or 15,

and we used to get dry ice from one of our friends who used to steal it from their dad. Okay. And we'd take it and blow up public toilets. Anonymous. What do you mean? How does it blow up a public toilet? The water reacts with it.

Anonymous. I do not condone it. However, I didn't get in trouble. My ex did. Don't do it anywhere. What do you mean? Anonymous goes, don't do it at home. Don't do it anywhere. Listen to her. She goes, don't do it. But I didn't get in trouble. So you, wait, you did this and then you put the blame on someone else? Yeah, no, no. Well, we all did it. And then we'd go to parties and people would know that we'd arrived because he'd, like, make little dry ice bombs. Oh, right.

Okay, you're the Bonnie and Clyde of destroying public toilets. Someone texted in and they said, I thought I was so smart when I was 15. I started selling stuff on Trade Me that I didn't have. Then I would say that it got lost in the post. Oh, my God. That's so bad. That was 2006, so it was kind of believable. I got caught on the fourth time.

Mum and Dad were not impressed that I was a fraudster. How old were they? 15. 15. Yeah, that is fraud, and you can go to jail. You need to get caught. Like, you need to get caught at that age so you don't go on to be like... An adult fraudster.

An adult fraudster. Yeah. Someone else said, when I was 14 and my brother was deployed in the NZDF, I stole his car and crashed it causing $4,000 worth of damage. Can you imagine how angry the brother was? Well, your brother was serving his country. I once... Okay, this one comes with a squeamish warning.

It's not the worst, but it's, hmm. We asked what's the most rebellious thing you did as a kid. I pierced my own tongue when I was 14. I did it with one of those fat diaper safety pins. Oh, no. I had the piercing for about 10 years, I reckon. What? My mum was not impressed. I had the piercing for about 10 years, I reckon. What? My mum was not impressed.

I'm 31 now. How did that piercing not get infected? You could have lost your tongue. How did you handle the pain of it? Oh. That's hardcore. Don't do any of these things. Marissa is here.

Hi. Hi. Marissa, tell us what was the most rebellious thing you did as a kid? Well, when I was nine, I had pretty sticky fingers. So I thought I had been caught. So the most logical thing to do was to run away with my best friend. Okay. We were missing for about three days over the weekend.

Yeah, nine years old. And so the first night we were kind of walking around, went into the weekend. Yeah, nine years old. And so the first night we were kind of walking around, went into the bush, didn't really know what we were doing. And then on the second day, it was the Saturday, so we broke into the kindergarten, ate all their food,

stayed there a weekend, lived the dream. And then a police officer knocked on the door and we were like ooh this door doesn't open you'll have to go to the other one and then when they went around we ran out up into the bush in the park and got caught by

the news crew by the news crew who were reporting on the nine year olds who had been missing for three days yes and then the craziest moment who were reporting on the nine-year-olds who had been missing for three days. Yes, and then the craziest moment of my life happened. I looked at them and said, am I going to be on TV?

And they put it on the news. Marissa, Marissa, I can just picture, can you imagine the news bulletin? Nine-year-olds who were on the run for three days have been located in the bush. They've been living off the food from the kindergarten down the road. And then Marissa, say the line. Am I going to be on the news? You are the news.

Wow. You are the lead story. You win, Marissa. That is wild. Some of those weren't rebellious. They were just stupid. Bree and Clint, it's sit-in. That is wild. Some of those weren't rebellious. They were just stupid. Bree and Clint. It's set in. Bree and Clint. There's

an Australian woman who has taken her boss to court for inappropriately contacting her when she was off on sick leave. Oh, this sounds all too common for a lot of people, I would imagine. Yeah, and when I say inappropriately, I'm doing those air quotation marks.

I think she's saying the inappropriate thing was, I'm on sick leave, don't contact me. Yeah. Okay? I've called in sick for a reason. Yeah. And I'm using one of my sick days. Leave me alone.

Need to be left alone. These are my sick days. Leave me alone. Yeah. So what are the details? Yeah, the details are interesting. So she was at home sick with a cold for four days. That's a rough cold.

She was off for four days. But you get five to ten days a year. Yep. So if you want to use them in a block, use them in a block. While she was up on those four days, her supervisor called her seven times and sent several emails to her. Okay. The court has sided with her and ordered her company to pay her 80% of her yearly wage backdated to June 2023.

What? She's getting 80% of a full year's pay. How? Why? I don't understand. She said that the repeated attempt to contact the woman were not reasonable actions. And yeah, they have to pay her out almost a whole year's wages for contacting her when he was sick leave.

That doesn't seem fair. If bosses knew that that was what could happen. Well, I guess maybe they're making an example out of them. I reckon they wouldn't even give you a work phone. I reckon they would, they'd be like, oh my god. Someone in the office would go oh Breeze, we've got that presentation later today but Breeze got the spreadsheet saved on her computer and the boss would go, do not!

No one message her! No one message her! Don't comment on her Instagram. Do not even like one of her TikTok videos. Just pretend she doesn't exist until she gets back. Yeah, that's quite interesting, eh? Two ends of the spectrum. I don't feel like those phone calls, they'd be annoying.

I don't think they're over the top. And then the payment is, I feel like, way over the top. But I don't know all of the details. I think it's this, it's really interesting because I think the day and age that we live in, like when, I'm assuming, I mean mean I never worked in that time, but when people used to go to work, it was work, and then they'd leave work at the door and they'd go home. You didn't have email? You didn't have email.

You didn't have a mobile. You didn't have a mobile phone? You know, you had your home phone. Yeah. But I doubt, you know, maybe in some cases your boss might be calling you at home, but not really. It would have been an absolute emergency for boss might be calling you at home, but not really. I feel like it would have been an absolute emergency for your boss to call you at home.

And if they did, they'd be like, hey, I am so sorry. Exactly. I'm so sorry to call you at home. Whereas like these days. But now your boss can email you. If they're doing some work at quarter to midnight, they'll just email you. And then it comes up on your phone.

And so I think it's a hard one because I think the lines have been very blurred over time about what is appropriate, what's not appropriate. But if someone is sick and they are taking their sick leave, then unfortunately you shouldn't really be contacting them. Unless it's an emergency, emergency, emergency, emergency. Obviously there's, you know, circumstances. I've got to give props to our boss, Ross Boss. He's actually really good.

If you go on holiday, he actually encourages you to delete your email app from your phone while you're overseas. Set up everything before you go and then when you're gone, just delete it. But he just leaves me alone all the time. No, he's emailing you. You just don't know the password to your email account. Yeah, well, that's true.

You know what I would say about Ross? He does contact you when you're sick. Most of the time it's just to see how you are. Oh, yeah, that's fair. Which is nice. Yeah, that's fair. He'll just be like, hey, how are you feeling? Yeah, and if you say you're okay, he'll go, cool,

can you just fill out this form for me? I need you to. And I need you back at work this afternoon. I thought this afternoon we could take some calls from people whose bosses contacted them when they were off sick or maybe they were off on maternity leave or maybe they were off giving birth or maybe you were off at a funeral. And you'll leave.

Whatever it was, you were off work and your boss contacted you and what did they ask you to do? Yeah, what was the outrageous thing your boss asked you to do when you were off? Did they ask you to send them some files or to do something for you while you were quite literally at a funeral? Yeah. You were like, no, I can't.

Or maybe you did it. Maybe you were just like, well, if they need me to do it, I'm going to have to. No, no, I can't. Or maybe you did it. Maybe you were just like, well, if they need me to do it, I'm going to have to. No, no, no. I feel like if you're at a funeral, you should not be contacted under any circumstances. But I guarantee some people will have been. Absolutely.

0800 DALES at M, or you can text us on 9696. We want to know, what was the thing that your boss expected you to do when you were off for whatever reason? Yep. We're asking you what's the thing that your boss called and asked you to do when you were on leave, you were on day off, you were on sick leave, whatever it was, you were off the clock. But the lines are blurred and your boss is like, oh, that'll be fine.

Just call them. Just call them and get them to do the thing. Reading some of these on the text machine machine there's some real horrendous ones i just don't understand how people can't use common sense yeah there's a real lack of sort of decency about some of them and i don't know that we'll read a lot of those ones out but just know they're kind of upsetting some of them yeah they're really horrible like where people have lost family members and there's like the boss being like you need to come back to work now

or like just wanting something. Leave them alone. And then there's ones like this. My boss made me spy on his lover for a whole day and paid me extra afterwards. Oh yeah? Well, I hope he paid you extra.

It's not in your contract to spy on his lovers. It's not in your normal daily job description. It's illegal so I'd be asking for cash if I was going to do that. I'd be like yeah I'll do whatever you want. I'm a real good spy but you're going to pay for it. That's horrible. Jemaya's here. Hi Jemaya.

Hi Jemaya. Hiya. What did your boss expect you to do when you were off? So I'm a school teacher, and I unexpectedly went into labour with my first kid while teaching my class. Okay. That's a biology lesson for the kids, isn't it? It was quite wild for a bunch of year eights.

Yeah. And then I went to the hospital, and baby was born later that day and ended up in the neon bunch of year eight. Yeah. And then I went to the hospital and baby was born later that day and ended up in the neonatal intensive care unit. Yeah. And the boss rang and said, hey, I know that you finished up earlier than you expected, but do you think you could get those school reports written before the deadline?

You've got to be kidding me. You just had a premature baby in your body. You'd think if anybody was going to understand it, it would be someone who worked with children. You know, they'd be like. Yeah, possibly. What were they thinking, Jemaya? What did you reply to that?

Yeah, yeah. I was kind of, I don't know, I just was like, yeah, all right, and just got it done. No. Are you joking? No, Jemaya, you tell him to shove it up his bum. Just smash them out. I'll just get these done in between feeding.

Teachers are incredible people, Jemaya, and you're proving it. How about this text? My boss texted me when I was on my honeymoon asking me to send a mass text to the company about the roadworks going on outside our work. No, they're on annual leave. They're on their honeymoon. Oh, there's nothing more romantic than getting a text from the boss about a mass text message. Amy's here.

Hi, Amy. Hi, Amy. Hi, guys. How are you? We're good. What did your boss expect of you while you were off? I was actually in hospital with sepsis. Okay, blood poisoning.

That's serious. Yeah. So really, really sick. And I got messaged and asked, could I do contracts up for a new employee? And I said that I didn't have my computer with me and I was asked, could somebody bring it up to me so I could get them done?

In the hospital? In the hospital when I'm, yeah, with sepsis. Amy, did you just, I would have just been so passive aggressive and been like, yeah, totally, I'll get that in between me trying to stay alive. Yeah, pretty much. I've got an intravenous antibiotic bag going into my arm at the moment, but if that comes out for 15 minutes around lunchtime, I'll see what I can do for you.

Yeah, pretty much. Wow. Unfortunately, I was in isolation because it was in COVID times. Ah, so they couldn't bring you the laptop. Nobody was allowed to come and bring me anything. I wish you'd just told them to F off, though, but I know that that's not always possible. I hope she doesn't work there anymore.

Yeah. Yeah, you hope people like that's not always possible. I hope she doesn't work there anymore. Yeah. Like, because people just get all... Yeah, you hope people like that stand up for themselves, eh? Yeah, and I know it's not as simple as that because, you know... You need the job. You need the job and you've got, you know, commitments and whatever, but... And sepsis. Not commitments.

Sepsis is what I meant. Responsibilities. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi. What did your boss expect of you when you were on leave? It's more something he asked me not to do. Okay.

It was back in COVID times. It was just after the first lockdown. Yeah. My partner and I were working in a cafe. Okay. And we had just all sort of recently started going back to work. My partner became unwell with like flu-like symptoms. And so we said to the boss, we'll go get COVID tests.

We'll have to take a day off or so while we wait for them to come back. And he flat out said, no, don't do that. Don't go get COVID tests because then if you guys are positive, I'll have to shut the cafe down. He's like, if you're fine, just come to work. Otherwise, no getting tested.

And yeah, that was pretty much what he asked us to do. You know, Hannah, no one really talks about it, but I reckon that happened in a what he asked us to do. You know, Hannah, no one really talks about it, but I reckon that happened in a few places during COVID. Yeah. You know? Ignorance is bliss. We didn't know.

It's a cafe. Like, you're going to be faced with a lot of people. Yeah, yeah. You're like, if I do have COVID, you should probably shut the cafe. You know? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, God.

Yeah, that's awkward. But we were negative anyway. We went and got the test. We were negative. Oh, sweet. Yeah, that's awkward. But we were negative anyway. We went and got the test. We were negative. Oh, sweet. Perfect outcome. Good on you for being responsible, Hannah. But then we used those text messages to blackmail him,

and now we have a cafe. We own that very cafe. All right, we're going to do a birthday banger next. If you would like to know the number one song on the day that you turn 16, this is your opportunity. We can do that for you. If you're keen, 0800 dial ZM we'll plug it in and we'll work it out for you next. Bree and Clint. Time for a birthday banger. Bree and Clint.

All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. These will be songs you probably haven't, um, these will be songs you have heard multiple times, hopefully. The number one songs when you turn 16. We do three of them and then we're going to play our favourite one. Let's go first to Mitchell.

Hi, Mitchell. G'day, bitch. G'day, how's it going? Good, mate. Whereabouts in the country are you calling from? Chilli Old Christchurch. Chilli Old, Nippy Old, Flat Old Christchurch. Are you getting some frost there in the

morning, Mitchell? Yeah, yeah. Starting to get the frost. Yep. Yep. Cold. How good's Christchurch though? How good? Can't beat it. We are big fans. Mitch, give us your date of birth. We'll do your birthday banger. 3rd of February 1995. Alright

mate, that means you were 16 in 2011. And back on your 16th birthday, this was at the top. Guy Sebastian and Who's That Girl. Oh, it's the lyrical genius. What do you reckon, Mitch? Yeah, it's not bad. It's not bad? Okay, good.

Oh, man, you've got to give it to Guy Sebastian. Quite catchy. One of the best voices of our generation. Like, who is she? Yeah, she's just walk, walk, walk in the club. Who is she? Who is she? Let's do a birthday banger for Julian.

I know our $100 is at him. G'day, Julian. Hi, Julian. Hey, guys. What have you been up to today, mate? Same old, just working all day. What have you been up to today, mate? Same old, just working all day. What do you do for work? Work in a

contact centre for a bank. That sounds very official and very adult. Yeah, it's very busy all the time. Are you a master of diffusing angry people on the phone, Julian? You've got to take it as it comes.

Yeah, right. Keep smiling as you go. I feel like I can tell that your soul has been taken from your body because of your job. Let's try and put a bit of soul back into you, Julian. What is your birthday? 19th of January, 1990. All right, mate.

You were 16 in 2006. We've done the calculations. This is your birthday? 19th of January 1990. Alright mate, you were 16 in 2006. We've done the calculations. This is your birthday banger. You're grilled. Nelly and Jermaine Dupri, you get grills. I'm obsessed. What do you reckon, Julian?

That's a great one. Did you want to have, when you were 16 in 2006, did you want a grill? Not when I was 16, no. Everyone wanted a George Foreman, Julian. Come on. A George Foreman grill. Is that what they were singing about? I never realised.

One more birthday banger for Kim. Kia ora, Kim. Hi, Kim. Kia ora. What have you been doing today, Kim? I've actually just been fighting through traffic. Fighting through traffic. Well, let's try and make it go.

The trick is wait for an ambulance to come through with its sirens on and they'll clear a track and then you just draft it. You get behind it. That's a good idea. Follow the ambulance and pretend that your partner's on there you just draft it. You get behind it. That's a good idea. Follow the ambulance and pretend that your partner's on there giving birth or something and just go straight through. Can I just say I want to distance myself

from that advice? But Kim, if you want to do it, go ahead. Hey, let's do your birthday banger, mate. What's your birthday? 20th of December 1981. Alright, you were 16 in 1997. Good year, but is it a good birthday, Banger? It is.

It's a ripper. From the boys. What do you reckon, Kim? Can you get down with the Backstreet Boys? I used to in 1981. In 1981? Do you mean in 1997? No, my birthday's 1981.

No, I know, I know, but you were 16 in 1997, so we're doing the song when you turned 16. Oh, yeah. Oh, I don't know. Okay. It's been a long day for Kim.

Just let her go. She's called up for a bit of fun on the radio. Put it this way, Kim. I think your song's the best and I'm the radio. Put it this way, Kim. I think your song's the best and I'm going to vote for it to win. Okay. Okay?

It's a great song. Oh, I'm torn. Get on board. I do love Guy Sebastian. No, I'm just kidding. Be a participator, not a hater. I do love... Let me see your grill. Yeah, I like that one too.

What would you vote for, Kim? Yeah, probably the second one, New Girl. I'm going Grills then. Claudia gets the split vote. What's the winner of Birthday Banger, Claude? I was going to go for Guy Sebastian until Brie laughed at it. I've never heard Grills before, so I can't pick that one. You've never heard that song?

By default, we're going Backstreet Boys. Car pie. There you go, Kim. You're the winner of Birthday Banger. Oh, wow. I tried for you, Kim. Car pie. There you go, Kim. You're the winner of Birthday Banger. Oh, wow. I tried for you, Kim. I tried. See you, mate.

Bree and Clint from the year 1997. This is the Backstreet Boys and As Long As You Love Me on ZM. Bree and Clint. I don't care as long as you love me. ZM, Brie and Clint, that's the Backstreet Boys and As Long As You Love Me. The winner of Birthday Banger from 1997. It took out Guy Sebastian and Nelly Grills.

Which would have also been a great song. I love the Backstreet Boys and I love that song. But this is also very good. I can't believe, Claudia, you've never heard this. You haven't come across it. Listen. Listen.

Can I just say, N in this era could not miss. Here's Unstoppable. Unstoppable. Bree and Clint. I do love a good theory because it makes you think. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.

Makes me think anyway. Makes you theorise. Which is not something that happens often. And I came across this woman who has been gaining a lot of traction on social media. Her name's Christina Narja, but she goes by Tinks. And she was talking about this theory that she has come up with called the fatal friend flaw theory. Okay. We've got some audio of her talking about it here explaining what it is i think that every single one of your close or best friends has a fatal flaw

maybe they're insecure maybe they're really attention seeking around boys whatever it is once you identify it once you identify your close friend's fatal flaw anytime it flares up you can't be triggered by it because you have to accept that that's their fatal flaw. And if the fatal flaw bothers you enough, then you have to demote them to a less close friend. The silliest thing is if you are consistently triggered by your friend's fatal flaw, either accept it or demote them or you'll drive yourself crazy. Okay, what's our fatal flaws? First of all, I quite like the theory.

It's a good one, eh? It's accepting that nobody's perfect. No one's perfect and you need to be able to accept that person's fatal flaw to be friends with them. Yeah. And not... You are going to tear this team apart if you ask us to name each other's fatal flaw. Oh, look at Claudia.

She's cracking her knuckles and getting ready. Oh, no, Claudia's ready to go. She's excited. I don't know about this, eh? All right, Claude, what's our fatal flaws? I can only think of one for Clint, sorry. Go on. Okay, what's our fatal flaws? I can only think of one for Clint, sorry. Go on. Okay, what is it?

For some people, it's insecurity. For you, it's the complete opposite. The boundless confidence. Over-security, you reckon? The over-security. So would you say that's cockiness? Yeah. No.

That's a good word for it. I don't think I'm cocky. I don't think I'm cocky. No, I don't think I'm cocky. Yeah, it's not. Maybe it's a complete lack of... I would accept I would accept over security

but I wouldn't accept cockiness. Over security. No, but it's not about accepting it. Claudia needs to accept that. And I accept you. It's a double-edged sword, isn't it? I'll take it. It's a double-edged sword. isn't it? I'll take it. It's a double-edged sword.

Okay, that's Clint's. My issue is too much self-esteem. Okay, Claudia's. Let's go. Let's all. We have to all agree. I know what Claudia's is. She's too mean.

I'd say Claudia's passive aggressiveness. Yeah, that's probably fair. Is it her fatal flaw or is it her superpower? Yeah, it's both. You see, it's both. Because it's kind of her personality. Because I also love that about you because I know you. But then sometimes I am, my feelings are hurt.

I think if I'm mean to you, you know that I feel comfortable around you. True. I know what Ella's is. What's Ella's? And it's not your fault. Oh, I hate this. It's naivety. I hate your fault.

Because she's so young and Yeah. Yep. And like. Naivety. She's like so fresh faced and innocent. Yep. That, and often we get frustrated with her. We're like, what do you mean you don't know who Enrique Iglesias is? But it's not her fault. It's not her fault.

Like she's just young. She's fresh out the womb. And it's actually like a double edged sword. Like it's not, it's a nice thing too. So we can't get angry at her. We have to accept it as her fatal flaw. Yeah. And I think that's fine.

Oh, no. I'll take it. Who's left over? I think that's it. I think we need to go to a song. For a long time, I would have said

that your fatal flaw is flatulence. But I think you've done a lot to rein it in. Thank you. I haven't heard anything from you. I haven't heard it for a long time.

You should be in my car on the way home after this show. I feel like you've grown up. So we've got to find a new flaw. We've got to find a fresh one. You should be in my car on the way home after the show. Actually, thanks. I feel like you've grown up. So we've got to find a new floor. We've got to find a fresh one. I would have been happy with that one because that's not that bad.

I feel like all I can think of is also a positive that you, this is sounding ridiculous, you work too hard. Nah, shut up, Claudia. But no, but you like, you stay used to too many things. No, actually, yeah, it gets annoying. You come in the door, you're like, guys. I'm exhausted. I'm like, shut up, Claudia. You say yes to too many things. No, actually, yeah, it gets annoying. You come in the door, you're like, guys. I'm exhausted. I'm like, shut up.

Just say no. I'm a people pleaser. I'm a people pleaser, guys. And I just want to make everyone happy and work my arse off. Great, great, great. So your fatal flaw is like the most positive thing ever. She's terrible. And I'm a cocky a-hole.

Put it on the billboard. Are you paying? Oh, that was really well. That was fun. I liked it. And I'm a cocky a-hole. Put it on the billboard. That was fun. I liked it. Bree and Clint. We are about to do our... Why did we call it this? Can I just say, why did we call it this? Hold on, wait.

No one help me. No, I won't help you. Bree and Clint's 24-hour blockbuster binge-a-thon. That's it. It's a mouthful and a half. Where we watch movies for 24 hours. Yeah, that's pretty much what it is. We want Clint to see all these movies he's never seen.

And he's a busy man, so we've blocked out a 24-hour period. It's all going to happen in Todonga next Thursday. You can get details at ZM Online. You can come down and join us. It's going to be a good time. But I saw this article which was quite interesting and very fitting for what we're about to do because we've only got a 24-hour time period.

It actually means we can't watch all that many movies. No, the shorter the movies we watch, the more we'll get to see. Exactly. And I saw that they'd done this study recently where 2,000 Americans were polled and they were asked pretty much like, what is your ideal length of a film? Yeah. And the results have revealed the ideal length of a movie. For me, it's two hours.

I'll just say that. For you, it's two hours. I'll just say that. For you, it's two hours? Yeah. Okay. Because I feel like a 1.30 is going to be a bit sort of homogenised and they just fart it out. You know how all rom-coms for a while were one minute 29 kind of thing, one hour 29?

Okay. Two hours, bit of substance, but not punishingly long. I wouldn't have to watch it over two nights. Okay. I see your reasoning behind that. I'll give you all the details. So the results revealed that 2% of the people polled said that films should be longer than two and a half hours. Only 2%.

Only 2%. They don't count. While 15% believed two hours is a suitable length of time, which is you, however, the vast majority would say that movies kept under the two-hour mark and more specifically 92 minutes as the ideal movie length. Hour and a half. An hour and a half-ish.

Yeah. Yeah. Which I kind of see what you're saying, though, as well. Like, if I'm going to sit down to it, this is the thing, I so rarely sit down to a movie that if I'm going to do it, I need it to be really good.

And I feel like two hours is like a mark of quality. But then they could have just put 30 minutes of garbage in there to get it up to the two-hour mark. You don't know. You don't know. That's true. Should we go through some films that would fit in and kind of around this category?

Sure. Okay, so one of the movies that they've mentioned is the film Borat. Oh, yeah. Which is only 84 minutes long. The perfect film. You know? So it's a little bit under, a little bit under. The movie with Ewan McGregor, which I have seen and people rave about it,

Trainspotting, is 93 minutes. So it's nearly bang on the 92 minutes. Yeah, right. I don't think I've seen Trainspotting. Oh, it's a great movie. Put it on the list. You'd like it. Another movie that is 88 minutes long.

Yeah. The Lion King. Okay. A perfect movie. Great movie. I mean, it checks out. 88 minutes long as well is Zombieland. I actually have seen Zombieland.

Great movie, eh? Yeah, with Bill Murray. Yeah. Yeah. The sequel is also very good as well. Toy Story came in at 81 minutes. Yeah. Well, you've got to keep it short for kids. Yeah, they can is also very good as well. Toy Story came in at 81 minutes. Yeah, but you've got to keep it short for kids. Yeah, they can't sit through a two-hour film.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 83 minutes, which I mean there's only so much. There's only so much chainsawing you can watch. You can put in there. The Simpson movie, 87 minutes. A movie with Eric Banner called Chopper, which is about Chopper Reed. People love that movie. I think that came in at like 90 minutes.

And then a lot of other movies that I'd never seen before, but apparently a lot of older films from what I got, because I tried to look up movies that were around the 92-minute mark. And a lot of older films were around that time, whereas all these new films these days. They just blow them out. Blow them out to like two, two and a half. More is more.

Good fun. Done for another day, guys. Nice work, everyone. Nice work, Claude. Nice work, Ella. Who would you say got MVP of the show today? Oh, I reckon I'd come pretty close. Oh!

Oh! I think you have... I did a stronger showing in What's the Plot than people expected me to. I did a stronger showing. What are you, a horse? What else? What else did you bring?

I just brought good fun energy. You were very rude to me today, actually. Oh, it comes out. Yeah, but I did it in jest, so everybody else could get a laugh. Wait, what was the rude thing you did? Well, you know, if three people enjoy it and one person doesn't, it's for the greater good. Wait, can I know what it was?

I'm pretty sure the quote was, F Claudia. Yeah, there's no really getting around that one, is there? I reckon Claudia MVP. Oh, you there? No, do you know what? I reckon Claudia MVP. Oh, you would say that, though. You're just sucking up to her because she's your boss. Oh, no. Group mentality.

I agree. Claudia. I love Claudia. Claudia. Claudia. Quick chant. Claudia. I've said it before and I'll say it again.
