Hello New Zealand and welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. You nearly sounded like an iconic guy from Australia. Have you guys ever heard of Frank Walker? No. That's not a thing here, eh? Alan has, he's laughing. So Alan's an Aussie. That's a good guy.

Who's Frank Walker? What's like an equivalent here? Do you guys have like, oh, like the Mad Butcher? Yeah. He does his own- Oh, is he your celebrity butcher? Does he do his own ads, Mad Butcher? Yeah.

He does, right? Yeah. So Frank Walker's this guy who owns his own tile company, his own tile business. Yeah. And he became iconic. And all the Aussies listening would go straight away, I know exactly who that is.

And he'd do these ads. We should find it and play it on the podcast one time. And they'd sound a bit like this where he would voice his own ad and it would sound like this. Frank Walker here from National Tales. We've definitely got those people.

Mad Butcher is one of them. He just yelled at you about what meat specials you could get. We had Lily. Big Save Lily as well. She was one of those. Oh yeah, that's right. Who was that? What was that? Lily is from Big Save Furniture. Right, and she would voice her own out. Well, her dad would constantly

order too many beds. And so every week she'd come on and she'd go Guys, it's Lily from Big Save Furniture and you wouldn't believe this, dad's ordered too many beds. Again! Again! So we're slashing prices on beds. Love it. Iconic. I've got the ad here.

Do you guys want to hear it for the first time? Yeah. This guy's an icon. Is your volume up? I think so. Hold on. Yep, turn that up. Hold on.

Here we go. Ellen's leaving. Don't worry about her. Yeah, don't worry about him. Hello. Frank Walker from National Tiles. This week, National Tiles have a beautiful range of polished porcelain floor tiles slashed by up to 30% and more.

Yes, until this Sunday only at National Tiles, save up to 30% and more on our beautiful range of polished porcelain floor tiles. But only until this Sunday. Rush into National Tiles now and save. Go to our website for details. NationalTiles.com.au He's a natural. Two things.

Yes, I did sound like that. Second thing, you sound exactly like him when you do him. Thank you. I have been known to do an impression or two on this show. Doesn't leave us much time for our expose, so we'll just do it quickly. Al's here. The reason he's here is because he's... He's coughing, which is interesting.

I ate your coffee cup. Oh, yeah, our edible coffee cup. Are you drunk again? No, I've had two glasses of wine with a friend from the South Island. A friend from the South Island, and by that,

do you mean someone you met on Grindr from the South Island? We have a boss in the South Island. It was a work, dude. Did I tell you what happened to Alan last night? I saw on your Instagram he fell asleep drunk. We've got to get

the vape thing. Just quickly. You're coughing a lot. Yeah, let's get to the vape. I'm good. Second day, 48 hours, no vaping. And I miss it a lot. Yeah. I was home alone last night. Brie left me to go do other things and I was on my own and I just wanted to suck

on the vape. We're not here to feel sorry for you, Al. I felt sorry for myself. Health-wise, how's the rash? We took the vape off you to try and clear up the rash. Show us. Prove it. My chest is going crazy so I got like two hours sleep last night because I was on FaceTime with a friend

from Sydney because she went home until 1am. Oh, tell us what the other thing you were doing was late at night last night. Like I was having cuddles with another guy. A free flat, you know? And, um, but I woke up. A free flat. Flat, flat.

A free, like, apartment. Free flat. Yeah, Brie and Annabelle are away. So, you know, take a fanning of it. And, um, but I woke up at 3am. So obviously you were hot. No, but the fan was on. I stole a fan from work and it it's like an industrial-sized one.

But I woke up, and my chest was dying. I'm like, oh, God, this needs to stop. Is it the vape, or is it not? I don't think it is. Maybe it's sexy times. That's true. I've been checked for that, and I'm good. But I was going to talk to you guys.

What do you guys think? What do you think, Ellie? I was going to say, I think it's withdrawals. I think it's withdrawals from the bank. I think your lungs are trying to cough up the stuff that you got in there. It's on my stomach and my back as well. That's very true. Your back is your lungs.

I mean, I almost offered to pay like $500 of charity today to have it back because I was so bored without it. Because technically you do have withdrawals. If you're putting something into your body for a certain amount of time and they say the worst days are like the first like two or three. Yeah, your body needs time to get over it, man. Oh, so it's got to go longer than a week? Yeah.

You would be proud of me. So there's another person who works in the building who I supply him with vape juice almost daily. Yeah. And he came up to me today and he goes, oh, bro, like vape juice. Have you got it? I'm like, nah, man, I'm clean. I'm clean.

I'm clean. I'm clean. I'm clean. He said to me, he goes, oh, it actually screws around with my skin as well. He's got the vape rash. I'm telling you, the vape rash is real. It screwed his face up, not his body like mine. So I'm like, okay, I think it's got some merit. It affects people in all different ways. Al's going to try and last until Friday. That'll be five days of vape free.

I'll go longer. I'll come back on your first podcast, Vape Free. I'll do Christmas and New Year. Okay, deal. Look at producer Ellie. She was like, what the hell? I'm going to buy you some juice for Christmas, honey. The saga continues.

See you guys tomorrow. Vapegate. Have a great podcast. Should I take a photo of myself pretty much naked for your little fan page? Again, you ask me this so many times and I always say no Yes, the answer is yes Oh, we do need extra followers Here's a podcast everyone, bye

There's certain foods that we only eat at this time of year You know, foods that are only Whoa, it's hot Foods that are only Christmas appropriate I think there's foods that should never be eaten Like fruit and nut chocolate Or rum and raisin ice cream Okay, we're not getting into this at the moment

And I think this one is going to be in the same category You're specifically targeting me with those foods And I feel attacked They all have something in common. I'm talking like turkey. No one eats turkey any other month of the year than December. Like a whole leg of ham. Mum's never buying a leg of ham except during December, right?

Do you guys have cabana here? What's cabana? It's like a big sausage stick thing. Big sausage stick? Yeah, and it kind of looks like a hot dog, but it's real big, and then you cut it up into little pieces and you have it with cheese. No.

Oh, so good. You don't mean salami, do you? I'm Italian. I know what salami is. Just checking, just checking. One of those things is the fruit mince tart, the Christmas mince pie. A United States website at the moment

is getting roasted, because I think maybe these are just a like a Kiwi and British thing. You don't have these in Australia, do you? I think we do, but we're not dumb enough to buy them. Okay, that's racist. So this US food site I think is trying to publish like some British Christmas recipes.

So they put up a Christmas Mince Pie recipe. Okay. Except their recipe included short pastry, which is the sweet pastry. Yeah. Slices of thinly sliced apple on top. And then 225 grams of raw beef mince. Oh, so they've made an actual beef mince pie.

Yeah, they don't realise that the mince in a Christmas mince pie is fruit mince. It's fruit, right? Yeah. Even I know that and I've never had one. Anyway, they got absolutely trolled for it and they've re-uploaded the website. It's now called Mince Meat and Apple Tarts,

now meat-free. It's like when Rachel on Friends made that trifle. Exactly the same. She was like, you know, there's custard, I made that, then there's beef and mince and then some whipped cream. Ice cream, yeah. I thought in the spirit of Christmas and because you've never had one why don't we um sorry it's a box opening

that sounded like you farted why don't we have a christmas christmas mince pie ellie's just shot up to new world and grabbed these for us no i'm not gonna like this i love them it's my favorite bit of christmas and the thing i like the most is that people hate them so much, so there's so many left for me. So there's nine here. Grab one of those. I want you to eat this with an open mind. Okay, I will.

I don't want you to take the opinions of Ben and Ellie into this, because they're haters. Can I just ask, is it like fruitcake? It's got fruit in it. So I hate fruitcake. But it's also got short pastry Like it's Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas It's like a live taste test Alright I'm going to Give you my honest opinion It's yum It's yum It's a special time of year It tastes like fruit cake

Tastes like Christmas Oh you're overreacting You're overreacting Maybe it needs the icing sugar dusted on top of that Maybe it's actually missing that Maybe it needs to be thrown out where it belongs Right, okay That's... no

Ho ho ho everybody It's No Ho, ho, ho everybody It's so sweet It's like jam and pastry And raisins All my favourite things Thanks mate, appreciate it Yeah, you're alright mate Well, if you're not eating them

And Ellie's not eating them And Ben's not eating them Looks like there's more for you old man I've got seven of these to go It was interesting to hear because we were sitting here in the studio yesterday and one of the guys who works over at our sister

station over at Flavour he, well it wasn't him, it was someone else that was talking about the dilemma that he was having yesterday. Yeah. So apparently he has ordered an Uber which is great and then he Good on him. Good on him. Congratulations. Order ordered an Uber, which is great. And then he.

Good on him. Good on him. Congratulations. Ordered an Uber to the airport. And he said as soon as he got into the Uber, the Uber driver had a bit of a toilet dilemma. Oh, yeah. He was busting.

Yeah, yeah. He was busting. So the Uber driver said to him, he was like, oh, you know, hey, I need to find a toilet. So they drove around the city for about 10 minutes trying to find a toilet that the Uber driver could use. Yeah. And then after a while they couldn't find one, so they started to head kind of towards the airport

and then eventually they pulled into a McDonald's where the Uber driver used the toilet. And that apparently was in there for about 15 minutes. So all in all, it's cost... 15 minutes? Yeah. Look, we don't want to talk about the details. Those are details I wasn't aware of.

I thought it was a toilet on the way to the airport. Apparently there was a line. And I thought he pulled into a servo. Yeah. Right, okay. I was not aware of that. Yeah, it was a bit of a debacle. And he nearly missed his flight. Like, he was a bit of a debacle. And he nearly missed his flight.

Like he was really close to missing his flight. Yeah. Because you and I were talking about who was in the wrong, which I think... You didn't tell me that he was in the toilet for 15 minutes. Well, it was like... And you didn't tell me he drove around the city. Because I said to Bree,

oh, this guy's complaining about nothing. He's being rude. He should have allowed more time to get to the airport. Because I said to Bree, oh, this guy's complaining about nothing. He's being rude. He should have allowed more time to get to the airport. But if your Uber driver has cost you 25 minutes looking for a toilet, then the Uber driver's in the wrong. Yeah, if he needed to go that bad, he probably shouldn't have picked up a rider.

But after, yeah, after 10 minutes, I would have just said, just drop me off here, man. I'll get another Uber. Well, true. Yeah, you could have done that. I would have said, I feel for you, brother, man. I'll get another Uber. Well, true. Yeah, you could have done that. I would have said, I feel for you, brother, but I can't help you in this situation. I understand when nature calls, nature calls. We've all been there, haven't we?

And there is nothing you can, well, I know I have, and there is nothing you can do about it. Whenever we talk about emergency toilet situations, we get texts from people who go, you need to be considerate of people who have irritable bowel syndrome. Well, you do. No, no, and I am.

Yeah, I'm one of them. No, you are not. You are not. You just have a dairy allergy. And I also have an allergy to spicy food. Yeah, that's a different thing to having irritable bowel syndrome, IBS. No, I think people who have IBS,

if you eat spicy food, that's what brings it on. Okay, well syndrome. No, I think people who have IBS, if you eat spicy food, that's what brings it on. Okay, well, don't you go – you're not a doctor. You're not a specialist. I Googled it. Let me finish what I was saying about the IBS community. I am considerate. I just think that maybe Uber driving is not the career path for you.

Wouldn't be great, it wouldn't. No, because – no, no. What jobs would be the best? Anything at a desk? Anything, again, we're venturing way outside of our field of expertise, which I know is your favourite thing to do. No, it's not! I would say

something well within reach of a bathroom for situations. It's like me, I know I need to be near a bathroom. I've never seen a Prius with a toilet. That's all I'll say. Imagine if they put them in though. You could Uber drive all day.

That'd be great. Another edition of our scrapbook for the year. This is a look back on 2019 for our show. This is the third last one. Is it? Yeah. Third last show of the year. We've checked in with things like your mum. She's been a huge contributor to the show

this year. She hasn't been paid. No. She's still asking about that actually. Your phone bill, that's been a huge contributor to the financial cost of this show this year. That hasn't been paid either. No, that hasn't been paid. A lot of similarities. Let's get the scrapbook open and have a listen to another episode.

Ah, once upon a time, earlier this year, previous to now, Bree and Clint's 2019 scrapbook. Page 175. This year, Bree made a very spontaneous purchase. I've got a big announcement. And I would like to announce I bought a van. No, you bought a what?

A van slash ute. Yeah! Come on, New Zealand. We bought a venute. The venute is coming and everybody's charming. Fast forward a few weeks and the Venute was road ready and we were off on a North Island tour.

We've got a saying here in the mighty Waikato You can't come to Hamilton without drinking from the river. Is that an actual saying? It's a saying. It is New Zealand's most pristine waterway. There's rubbish in there.

I don't know about that. Okay. Trust me, this is what Kiwis do. This is a bit of your Kiwi. It smells funny. Yeah, that's protein. Nutrients, nutrients. Okay.

Yeah. Cheers. Cheers. Tastes like a litter box. Yeah. All right, well well better finish today It really tastes weird Oh by the way

Yeah It's mostly like cow shit And like dead cows Tune in tomorrow For another page of Brian Clint's 2019 scrapbook What a journey. I'd get checked after that.

What a vehicle. Is it still for sale, the Venute? The Venute is still for sale, currently on Trade Me. The auction ends tomorrow afternoon. Right, last chance. Last chance. To buy a piece of Trans-Tasman history. Literally.

Some good bids though, getting a lot of good bids on her Go and have a look If you're interested I felt attacked yesterday You should By you You were being attacked Some people that listen to this show

For something that I always thought Was completely normal Completely natural A tradition In most families You should thank us For the perspective we were giving you that I always thought was completely normal, completely natural, a tradition in most families. You should thank us for the perspective we were giving you. No, I hate you guys for ruining it for me. I was living in bliss thinking that Christmas lasagna was a thing in everyone's family.

Christmas lasagna is... It should be a thing. No one's arguing that it would be delicious. It's just you were of the opinion that every household was having a lasagna on Christmas Day. And it's not the truth. It's not. Christmas lasagna is not a thing. What if we were in Italy?

If we were in Italy, yeah, but we're not. But my family is Italian. Yeah, that's fine. That's fine. That's fine. That's fine. You're talking about a traditional Kiwi or Australian Christmas Day. I reckon if I was to give a percentage, less than 2% of families would have a Christmas Day lasagna. I would rather a Christmas Day lasagna over a stinking ham any day. Me too, possibly.

It is so good. If I had to choose between the two, I probably would too. Get rid of the ham. Give me the lasagna all day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like I said, no one's arguing that it sounds nice. I think it's a thing. I think it's a thing.

It's not a thing. No, I think it is. You were roundly proven wrong yesterday when we put it out there and we said, is Christmas lasagna a thing? It was like one text. 9-6. No, no, no. We're not doing the poll again. 9-6, 9-6. We got one text from an Italian who said, yeah, I do that.

Is Christmas lasagna a thing in your household? I want to know from the people. No. Yes. Do you have something weird that you have at your Christmas lunch or maybe you don't even realise it? Yeah, you didn't realise that what you were having was weird. Does that mean tiramisu for Christmas Day is not a thing either? you don't even realize it yeah i did it yeah you didn't realize that what you were having was weird does that mean tiramisu for christmas day is not a thing either i don't think like again delicious more delicious than a lasagna though i don't know like christmas is a trifle

christmas is a trifle thing definitely a trifle and and christmas pudding no we don't have pudding we got fruit salad dude it's literally called Christmas pudding. Like, she's like, no, that's not a thing. No, Christmas pudding. It's in the song. Bring us some, oh, figgy pudding. It's a Christmas pud, you know? That's a thing.

Same thing. What do you have that's weird? I don't think anything we have is weird. We have either the ham or the turkey. I think one of my brothers threw a tantrum one time, and now we have to have ham and turkey. Are they the same? No, one's a pig and one's a bird.

They're very similar. No, they're completely different. Pretty similar, I think. No, I don't believe you need both, though. You don't need both. No, very standard. Mum makes a delicious bread on Christmas Day. There's stuffing and veggies and all the usual bits.

You know what I think would make it better? What? Christmas lasagna. Christmas lasagna. See, my issue with that is you have to sub something out. You can't put another thing on mum's to-do list because she's in charge of the kitchen on Christmas Day. No, me and my mum do everything.

Yeah. So I'm doing one. We'd make two lasagnas. Actually, we don't have one lasagna. We have two lasagnas. And a ham. And a ham. And a turkey. And a ham? And a ham. And a turkey?

And a turkey. And a chicken? No, no chicken. No chicken. Saucies? Yeah. God, it's a bloodbath at your house on Christmas Day. Mate, it's a feast.

Sucks to be an animal on the Thomas L farm. It's a feast. We'll find out what weird things are on people's Christmas table though. Shall we? I want to know, yeah, if you're having one of these moments like I'm having, where I've just found out Christmas lasagna is not a thing. What do you think you guys have at your family Christmas that might not be a traditional Christmas food? Yeah,

but it has to be at your Christmas. Has to be at your Christmas? It's your non-traditional tradition on Christmas Day. Exactly. And you have to have it most Christmases. Yeah. I don't know if they're open, but maybe you need a plate of McDonald's cheeseburgers on Christmas Day.

Could be. Do McDonald's open on Christmas? Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're open. Because KFC's open. They do chicken for Christmas. Yeah, they do the Christmas buckets. Okay, well, let's see what we get, shall we? 0800DALZM or text us to 9696.

What's your non-traditional Christmas traditional food at your house? On Christmas. On Christmas. It's a tradition. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. We're talking non-traditional Christmas day dinner traditions. Yeah, what food are you serving up in your household

which you think you might have an inkling that it's not a normal traditional food to eat on Christmas? We hadn't taken into account how many other cultures there were involved on Christmas Day. Oh, you mean like my Italian culture? No. Slash heritage that you shat all over?

No one is shatting on your Italian culture. You shat on it. No, we did not. I just said that it's, honestly. Like someone's texted and they said, we have seaweed soup with rice cakes. Hashtag Korean. Are you going to say something about that?

No, it's wonderful. I've already said. So now you think it's wonderful. Oh my God. I already said it's wonderful that you have a lasagna. I just said it's not normal. Then there are other cultures, and I don't mean the type you were born into.

Someone texted in and said, I'm a second year vegan. So no more animal flesh on Christmas Day for us. Thanks for your input, vegan. Vegan, I love your movement. I love what you stand for. Vegans have a habit of using triggering words like animal flesh, like meat would do. No meat for us.

Meat's good. We get the point. We do get the point. Good on you for making those choices. There's a lot of people texting in with the just weird stuff that obviously they have all the time at their Christmas. A lot of

people saying that they have lasagna at their Christmas. No, there's not a lot of people saying that. No, you're being selective about what you're reviewing. Someone said they have a Christmas salmon and dessert is a milk tart. We do a Christmas salmon now. I forgot to mention that, actually. Because, don't worry, that's not important.

Are you vegan? No, pescatarian. No, trust me, mate, I know. You've told me. You asked. A million times. You asked told me a million times. You asked. That was a trap.

Hi, Rebecca. Hi, guys. How are you? Hi, Bec. Sorry. Bree's being a little... Mate, you attack me, I'll come at you. Rebecca, save Christmas.

Merry Christmas, children. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Rebecca, this sounds like a Christmas lunch. What is your non-traditional Christmas dinner tradition at your place? I have a lasagna. Yes, you do, babe. No, I don't.

No, I don't. No, no, no. What are you having? We do a massive thing of prawns on the barbecue. Yeah, that's a good time. And we always serve strawberry and asparagus salad. See, that's different. Come again, Rebecca?

That is different. We make a strawberry and asparagus salad. Strawberry and asparagus salad. See, that's different. Come again, Rebecca? That is different. We make a strawberry and asparagus salad. Strawberry and asparagus? Yeah, with roast almonds, feta, and balsamic juices. Hey, I'd be all about that. All right. That sounds weird, but I like it. You just freaked me out for a second.

I just saw these strawberries on some floppy asparagus. But no, that sounds jazzy. I like it. Yeah, that's different. Have a great Christmas, Rebecca. Thank you for calling us. And Beck, make sure you put a lasagna on the table this Christmas. Start the tradition, mate.

I will. I like it. See? She won't. We're starting a movement. Michaela's here. Hey, Michaela. Hi, Michaela.

Hi. Hello. What's the weird thing you guys eat at Christmas time? We always have, as an entree to Christmas lunch, we have asparagus rolls. Oh, delicious. More asparagus? lunch, we have asparagus rolls. Oh, delicious. More asparagus? Yeah, a lot of asparagus going on. Asparagus rolls.

Every family gathering, but always lots on Christmas. Fresh asparagus, or do you use tinned asparagus? No, the tinned stuff's the best. The tinned stuff is the best for an asparagus roll, eh? We put that on our platters, nibbly platters, the tinned asparagus. It's good on platters. Yeah. Right.

Okay. All right. Well, bon appetit, Michaela. Thanks, Michaela. And Merry Christmas. Great to hear from you. Good idea for Christmas Day. Last one's Jamie.

Hey, Jamie. Hi, Jamie. Hi. Tell us, Jamie, what's the non-traditional food you're serving up for Christmas? Well, we always used to have the ham and turkey and, you know, all that huge. Boring. Bring on the lasagna.

Am I right, Jamie? Yeah, Bree, you are. But you've got to make your own pasta. I agree. I agree. All traditional. And you do not put cheese sauce through the bloody thing. No, it's a white sauce.

You've got to put the bechamel sauce. Yes, you do. Jamie, girl, you've done your research. You know what you're doing. Oh, I do. I used to be called Nigella, so yeah, I totally agree with it. I'm sorry to break up this lasagna love fest. No, I'm going to keep talking to Jamie about lasagna.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You leave Jamie alone. Jamie, what about... You've just got to make it on your Christmas and put it on your Christmas table. Yes, you do, Jamie. And you would be damn surprised how everybody goes, oh, my God.

Jamie, can I run one text past you? See, see what Jamie's saying. Oh, give up on the lasagna. Try, try, try. Okay, here's one, here's one. Someone's texting on Christmas. They said, we have a turducken. That's a duck stuffed inside a chicken, stuffed inside a turkey.

It's very American. I don't think that was from our vegan listener. But have you ever tried a turducken, Jamie? No, I'm sorry. I'll stick with my homemade lasagna. And I'm sure my boys will too. Jamie. Because they just request it every year.

You queen, Jamie. Call the show time and enjoy that Christmas lasagna. I will and you too, you guys rock. Thank you so much, Jamie. Merry Christmas, Jamie. Oh, she was lovely, wasn't she? She was lovely. The New Zealand Nigella Lawson. No one's questioning your delicious lasagna, mate.

I feel like after this, if people have listened, they'll be serving up a lasagna. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. You know how we're trying to save the world and stuff? Well, you know how the world's stuffed, and we're trying to help the environment and global warming and stuff. I read that all the oxygen is slowly leaving the oceans. Oh, because it's dying.

God, it's depressing, the amount of news there is around. It gets too much, which is why we all jump on a good story like this one. Air New Zealand, our national carrier, have announced that they are trialling edible cups. You know when you go on a flight and they come around and they're like, tea, coffee, water

and it all comes in a plastic cup. Even those paper cups, they're lined with plastic. And they can only be used once, and they go in the tip. I mean, I do love an edible anything. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I just got that.

Yeah. So they reckon if they can change the cups from those ones to edible ones, they could save 8 million cups a year going into landfill. So we've managed to get some. I got Producer Ben to inquire And he's managed to get two of the edible cups Do you want to bring those in Ellie? Are we going to review these?

Yeah So I had Ellie Because your great concern is what with an edible cup? It's going to disintegrate It's going to leak Because you've got hot coffee or something in there Yeah So we brewed these probably half an hour ago right Ellie?

Okay I've got a coffee in mind Which once brewed it was piping hot And now it's time to cool down I've got a tea in mind And you've got a tea in mind, which once brewed it was piping hot and now it's time to cool down. I've got a tea in mind. And you've got a tea. Oh, the tea bag's still in it. So first of all, the cup looks like a biscuit, right?

It looks like a ginger nut kind of thing. Smells like a piece of almond bread, shortbread. Not shortbread. The vanilla flavoured. Right. Because they did this in Melbourne. Well, kind of. They put them in an ice cream cone. Coffee and ice cream cone. I think it's very similar

to that, but this one's more cup shaped. Okay, yep. My tea's still warm. Yep, my coffee's good. I mean, it's not going to do anything for the warmth, but it's just... Oh, you're biting it with the liquid in it. Oh, you dipshit. You don't eat the cup. I don't like it.

You don't eat the cup until you've finished the tea. It's everywhere. Yeah, you bit it while it was still full of tea. You moron. That was a genuine mistake. Oh, now I look like I wet myself. I don't want that on a flight. That's not a good review, by the way.

If you're listening in New Zealand, Brie biting her full cup of tea and going, I don't like it. Thank you, Ellie. That's not an official review. Look at my pants. You did that. Yeah, I'm actually so dumb.

You did that. I've drunk enough coffee now that I can probably have a bite of mine. Go on, give it a go. It's not all gone. Oh, there's lots of tea. There's lots of... They're quite hard. Where did it even come out?

It's cracked all the way down. Yeah. It tastes like waffle cone. It tastes delicious. It does taste delicious, yeah. Isn't this the idea, right? You have a cup of tea and a biscuit. Except the biscuit is your cup.

We've got a leak. Yeah, you need to your cup We've got a leak Yeah you need to be We've got another leak Over here Clint You're not house trained These Are meant to be on The Air New Zealand flight soon So watch out for them everybody

I'm probably not going to get One on a flight No I don't Just in case I don't think you will be Bree and Clint The podcast ZM

Do you ever think to yourself You you know when you see celebrities, and obviously the only people that really know what it's like to be an A-list celebrity is the celebrities. And the people that they employ. Well, yeah, I guess they would kind of see firsthand exactly how they live. Yeah. But you wouldn't truly know what it was like to live that life, would you? No. Things like social media have given us more of a glimpse into celebrities' lives than

ever before. And you can tell the celebrities that are good at it and the ones that aren't. Because a lot of them have got by for generations of just doing the photos that are in magazines and the movies. Yeah. But now you get to see inside their house on Instagram story. It's a weird time. It is a weird time. It is a weird time.

Chrissy Teigen is probably one of my favorites these days. She's just so real. The woman who is married to John Legend. Yep, they've got kids. She hosts Lip Sync Battle. She's the DJ on Lip Sync Battle, yeah. She's just awesome and she's just real, I guess, down to earth and genuine. She's probably my favourite.

She's not even a mummy grammar, but she'd be my favourite mummy Instagrammer. She doesn't do it on purpose, but she's great to follow, yeah. And she does this thing sometimes where she'll put it out to Twitter, her Twitter followers, where she'll be like, ask me questions about this and I'll break it down. I'll give you the real tea. I'll serve it up. And one of the things that she was like, she goes,

ask me what you want to know about what it's like to be a celebrity and I'll actually tell you the truth. Not all the bull crap that other celebrities kind of dance around and don't really answer stuff. She goes, I'll tell you the truth. Okay, I'm interested in this. So it starts off with someone sending a tweet that says, what is it actually like being a celebrity?

And Chrissy Teigen replies with, it's good because I'm comfortable, but I have an awesome life and zero life all at the same time. Right, okay. So I guess she's like, I guess talking about, she doesn't live a normal life, but then sometimes it's like chaotic and crazy. She doesn't live zero life. Yeah, but I guess that's what she's saying.

Yeah, okay. I would counter it with, no, okay, I'll just let her go on. That's fine. Someone else tweeted and they said, how the hell do most celebrities travel on planes? Are you ever just hustling to the airport trying to make it to your gate on time? And she replied with,

there is a terminal that's a mile from the airport that you pay a membership for. They do the same security privately and they take you to the plane in a car. And then she finishes with, I know, I know. Auckland Airport has the same thing. Yeah.

So it must be a thing. That's why when Justin Bieber comes to the country, he doesn't come out the arrivals gate. He comes out somewhere else. There's a special terminal for important people and they don't have to go via the public. Yeah. Someone else tweeted her and said,

do you pay restaurants money to let you cut the line or do they just do it automatically? Which you and I have tried this before where we call a restaurant and we say we're making a booking for a celebrity. Yeah, remember we got Stan Walker a free dinner at Valentine's in Rotorua. Yes, and then we also got Kevin Hart a booking here in Auckland at a restaurant that was booked out. Yeah. Remember that? Yeah. These were fake bookings, by the way.

We were just seeing if it would work. And it does work. It does work. And she actually confirms it because she says, I make reservations and don't give them the option to say no. She said, I always say who it is, my full name, and I always say I'd like to make a reservation for me and my husband, John Legend. I guess if you've got that kind of flex, you might as well.

May as well. Because you're just putting it out to them to see if they care. You're not actually going, I am Chrissy Teigen and I expect a reservation. No, she goes, hi, it's Chrissy Teigen here. I want to make a booking for me and my husband John Legend. As long as you don't go, hey, it's Chrissy Teigen here, host of AMC's Lip Sync Battle alongside LL Cool J. Yeah, don't give that flex. And the last one that I found interesting is someone tweeted her

and said, are most celebrities nicer or meaner than they appear to be in public? Oh, that's a good question. Isn't it a good question? And a lot of celebrities don't talk about this stuff because it's like, you know, a no-no. But she's tweeted back and said, in my opinion, the bigger the celebrity, the nicer they are. I've had a lot of borderline people who've had super big attitudes, but also a lot of shitty big celebs as well.

So I guess there is no clear path here. No, I don't think there would be. I think you're more likely to get found out if you're a bit of a D-bag these days. Because social media is everywhere. Yeah, it'll get you. You can't pretend to be a nice guy, you know. I mean, look at your social media. Excuse me.

I was going to say look at Mel Gibson. I was going to say, and look at your social media. We know you're lovely from your Instagram. Did that sound genuine? Yeah, right. Did I pass? No. Zidim, Spree and Clint, the podcast.

It's Britney, bitch. Flip. Katy Perry. The guy on red wine. Say y'all on his mouth like liquor. Taylor Swift. Like, like liquor. Spree and Clint.

Yanina. A pop diva. Pop diva. Yanina. A pop diva. Pop diva. You're Nina, a pop diva. She was a bit of a revelation, this person, wasn't she? We discovered her on YouTube, a YouTuber who did covers of other artists where you couldn't even tell the difference.

Yeah, that's where she made her bread and butter and she got millions of views because she would cover big pop divas and she'd sound very similar to a lot of them. We ripped her off for months and months and months. You just had to guess whether it was Yanina or the pop diva. Or the original pop diva. We then ran out of Yanina songs. Yeah, she wasn't uploading anymore.

So we've just been making it up with covers of other artists since then. Producer Ben, is this song coming back in 2020? Is this game coming back? Sorry, mate. I didn't know if I was on or not. Could do. Yeah, could do. Could do. I've been enjoying it with other people.

It's hard. It does take a bit of time, but it's fun. If the people want it, then I'll give it to them. Okay. Well, let us know if no one's back. No trash or treasure, though. That is not coming back. Wait.

So if we can pick, we can have this one, but no more trash or treasure. Yep, bang on. Hey, well, one's better than nothing. Yeah, one is better than nothing. Tyler, congratulations. You're going to be one of the last players this year. Welcome to the show. Hi, Tyler.

G'day, how you going? Good. Have you heard the game before? No, I haven't played before. Oh, well, you know, there's always a first time, and lucky you're here today. You'll be playing Riley. G'day, Riley. Hi, Riley.

Hi. Have you heard the game before? I've heard it. I haven't played it. Could be an advantage. We play you guys a song. You just tell us whether it's an original or a cover. Tyler, you're up first.

Here's the first song. All the misery was necessary when what did we love? This I know. All right. Tyler, is that a cover of The Weeknd or is that the actual singer, The Weeknd? I'm going cover. You're going to go a cover of The Weeknd. Well done.

Absolutely correct. That was shocking. I didn't think it was that bad. It sounded like Adam Levine. Play it again. All the misery was necessary when what deep in love does I know. Nah, I don't think it's that bad. It's bad, okay.

I think it's alright. Riley, here's your first one. This ain't love, it's clear to see. But darling, stay with me Alright Riley, is that Sam Smith or is that a cover? Oh, that was a hard one, I'm going to go with Sam Smith You're going to lock in Sam Smith for the win, the original? No, that was a cover

That was a cover, but he was good The guy doing that was good He was alright Here you go Tyler, You can go two up here. Love me tender. Love me dear. Never

let me go. Oh, is that the king, Elvis Presley, or is that someone doing a cover, Tyler? I'm going Elvis. You're going the original, the king. Let's have a look. Tyler? I'm going Elvis. You're going the original, the king. Let's have a look.

No, that is someone doing a cover. Yeah. How good's that guy? Okay, Tyler, you can level the game here. Here's your next one. Sorry, did I say Riley? No, Tyler, I meant Riley. Riley, this is your next one.

Riley, this is your one. I know I can treat you better than he can. And any girl like you deserves a gentleman. All right, Riley, is that Shawn Mendes or is that a cover? I'm going to go Shawn. You're going to lock in the actual Shawn Mendes. Is that correct? Yes. No, that is a cover.

Someone very good at doing Sean Mendes, that's for sure. Ben, I can't see them anymore. I'm trying to do these hand signals to Ben to find out what the answer is. The thing's not long enough, mate. I can't see and you haven't written it on the thing. It's written on the thing. It is not written. Do we have Clint's pills in there?

The chill pills? It's okay, mate thing. It is not written. Do we have Clint's pills in there? The chill pills? It's okay, mate. We'll get there. Has anyone got the score? What's the score? It's 1-0 to Tyler, right? I don't even know. Tyler, have you got one and Riley, you've got none?

Yeah. All right, cool. Sweet. Tyler, you need this one here to win. Good luck. All right, Tyler, is that Justin Timberlake or is that someone doing a cover? Oh, I'm going to go Justin. You're going to lock in JT, the actual original OG.

Let's have a look. No. Bugger. It's a cuppa. Right. He was good. I think I'm cottoning on to this game now. That means, Riley, you need this one to take it to tiebreak, okay?

Good luck. Oh, it's good. Riley, is that the original Bee Gees? Or is that a cover? I'm going to say cover. Locking a cover it is. But you know what? It's not far from how Barry Gibb sounded in that song.

It's quite close. I thought that guy was about to explode. Guys, somehow we've made it to tie break. All right, guys. It's one and all. This is how tie break works. Yeah, we're going to play it, and at any point you can buzz in with your name, but once you buzz, you have to give an answer. If you get it wrong...

The other person wins. The other person wins automatically. Riley, Tyler, good luck. I heard Tyler. I think I heard Tyler too. Tyler. Going cover. He's figured it out.

Going cover. He's figured it out. It is a cover. Like every single one of them today. So everyone was a cover this week. Was that the joke? Everyone's a cover? Yes.

It's the same guy. Okay, how about you let me in on the joke before we play the game? Read it! I don't read that bit! I don't read that bit! I like how we have the exact same sheet. I picked it up straight out. Oh, come on!

Oh, he's had enough! Kia ora, this is Toby Manhai. I'm the host of Gone By Lunchtime, a podcast for the spin-off podcast network all about politics and politicians, with me, Annabel Lee-Mather, and Ben Thomas, careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous.

It's not for everyone. I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, but you, I reckon, will love it. Gone By Lunchtime. Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, this Friday, what are the facts? Gone by lunchtime. Grab one eating cat food. Facts. Variables. It could be me and it could be you. We don't know yet. Most likely you.

If it's confirmed before Friday that Friends is making a show reunion, then you'll be eating cat food. I'm going to say it's 99% you, 1% maybe me. Percentages don't matter. So long as there are, it means there's still a variable in play. Yesterday we spoke with a veterinary specialist who said it was okay to eat cat food. It's fine.

It won't hurt you. They said as a human being, I think she said it's not optimal. No, it's not ideal. But it's not going to hurt you so much. She was an animal specialist. Today on the show, I have a human food specialist of sorts. A nutritionist? Of sorts. What do you mean of sorts? Well, he has his

own food business. Okay, it's called Plate Up. He also loves food. He knows macros, he knows micros, he knows proteins, he knows... Oh, boring. He is possibly the fittest person you've ever seen in your entire life. Right. He also used to be the Bachelor.

I know who it is. And now he's the host of The Bachelorette. Welcome to the show, Art Green. Hi, guys. I have always wanted to know how you got your 12-pack. Yeah, well, I just eat cans of cat food, obviously. Yeah. Also, one other qualifying criteria, he has cats.

He has two cats. Right, excellent. So there's cat food in his house. Art, first of all, congratulations on all the success this year. The baby, the television show, you're on fire. Hey, thanks, man. And congratulations to you too. You're beautiful.

I love how you put baby and television show in the same thing. There's lots of success going on. But we've got bigger issues at play at the moment, and that's why I wanted to talk to you. This Friday, one of us is eating cat food. Are you aware of this bet that's been made? I am now. What do you think, Art?

Who's eating cat food most likely on Friday? Just replay it for me a little bit. Who thinks Brenda's having a reunion? That's Clint. So about three, well, I thought about two months ago that it was. He made, he wagered everything on it, and I said, absolutely not, I'll make a bet that whoever's wrong eats cat food. And Friday's the deadline.

Okay, okay. I mean, I think Clint's right. Do you want to bet eating cat food on Friday on the show on it? Absolutely. I'll bet that if I'm wrong, then Brian and Christine will eat cat food. That's his cats. If Bree or I eat cat food, would you say that a direct implication of doing that will mean that we get super ripped? It's a long shot, but I mean, give it a go.

If you say it, Art, I'm going to chow down on the jelly meat. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, no, you'll get an eight pack. Go for it, Bree. I'm going to chow down on the jelly meat. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, no, you'll get an eight pack. Go for a break. I'm going to chow down on the jelly meat. Okay, in your honest nutritional opinion, though, as someone who uses food as fuel, do you see any issues with us eating cat food on the show on Friday? Not at all.

I mean, it depends what sort of cat food, but you can, I mean, we've got this cat food that's just tuna. I mean, it's not that much different than just your regular can of tuna. I can go for it. Problem is, if it's me, my cats actually have a Friskies sponsorship. So he has to go with Friskies.

So I'm contractually obliged to eat. Hashtag Friskies. Hashtag Friskies. Hashtag this is sponsored. Sponsored. Hashtag. I own a Friskies ad right now. Yep, you are.

We've tricked you into it. All I eat is Friskiesiskies okay can we just get for the record because we'll play this to the doctor if anything does happen can we just get like a i am art green food expert and i recommend eating cat food why are we playing this to a doctor just in case you need to call on health insurance this is binding yeah just say it man just just say it and you'll get your Mobile fuel voucher I'm Art Green And I highly recommend

Everyone eat cat food And that's from an expert Everybody And that's from an expert Yeah Thank you very much If Art said it Then I'd want to do it now

Yeah you're welcome guys Thanks Art Say hi to Matilda from us We can't wait We'll do Have a good one guys Thanks mate See ya

ZM Spree and Clint The podcast Has 2019 Draws to a close I thought to myself We can't wait. We will do. Have a good one, guys. Thanks, mate. See you. ZDM Spree and Clint, the podcast. As 2019 draws to a close, I thought to myself last night, I want to clean up some of my life. And the first thing I thought about was my Facebook inbox. Oh, okay. That I haven't looked at for four years. I'm not talking about my personal one because I have – what is it called?

Like your other – you've got one. Oh, your public page. Public page, public page where I post videos. I was going to do a joke until you said I had one. You do have one. So you'd have one of these in boxes too. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So you have your private Facebook page,

which is just for your friends and family. And then if you want to post public stuff too, there's like another page. And you can DM that page. I get some weird your friends and family. And then if you want to post public stuff too, there's another page. And you can DM that page. I get some weird DMs on that. Yep. Like one's about you. There's this guy in America who really wants you and me to hook up.

I've got an inbox here that I've pulled out of my inbox. That's about you and I. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Anyway, I'll get to that because I went through quite a lot of them, probably about just a year's worth. There's like four years' worth of inboxes. But I thought we could do a thing where I've pulled out

the weirdest inboxes I've got over the last year. And, yeah, let's just see what I discovered. Yeah, cool. Okay, go for it. All right. The first one I discovered, and some of these might not be suitable for younger ears. Okay. Well, you be careful.

I'll be careful. I'll try and dance around it. Someone messaged me and they said, Hi, Bree. Recently, I saw you were able to gleek, which is where you can spray saliva out of your two glands. I was wondering if you'd be interested in making $125 if you came over to my house and gleeked on me. No. No, okay.

Stop that message now. Okay. $125? Yeah, no. No, not enough. Don't put yourself in that situation. You're right. I should ask for more.

You're worth more than $125. I should ask for more. Yeah. Then I went on to read this inbox from someone. Hey, sorry, this is a bit weird, but I just met a guy out and he was super hot and I kept thinking he reminded me of someone and now it's just clicked that it was you. Is your brother in Brisbane by chance?

Question mark. If he is, is he single and can I get his number? It probably was my brother that she met. Yeah. No, he doesn't look that much like you though. We do kind of look similar. He's like the tall ripped version of me if I was actually fit. You don't mind that one?

I then came across this audio message that I've received into my inbox in the last year. You take a listen. And how are you doing, Bree? What are you up to, sweetheart? Yuck. So I messaged him back and I said, oh, not much. Hang on, I want to listen to it again. Can I listen to it again?

Yeah, you can listen to it again. So this is in your public Facebook page inbox. And how are you doing, Bree? What are you up to, sweetheart? Oh, yuck. It was just audio, it wasn't video? Just audio. Trust me, I'm not going to talk about some of the videos I found.

And how are you doing, Bree? What are you up to, sweetheart? Who? You know what? Lovely, lovely. I appreciate, you know. This is the problem with men is, like, how are you sending that and going, this will work? This is what will get her?

This is what's going to hook her in. If I know ladies, I know what they're after. And how are you doing, Bree? What are you up to, sweetheart? Hey, better than some of the videos I receive, let me tell you. This one involves you. I found this inbox. This is a recent one, actually.

Someone inboxed me and they said, Just wondering if you and your radio partner, Clint, would ever be keen for an organised rendezvous with us three, willing to pay big amounts. Five people. There's not enough of me to go around. There's not enough. And let's finish it off with my favourite inbox that I received this year.

It literally just said this. You look like you have a really fertile body. Why? Because there's lots of growth all over it? I think it's my hips. Cool, keep them coming. Keep those inboxes, yeah. It's a pleasure. You can find Bree's Facebook page at facebook.com forward slash Bree Thomas L. Thank you, mate.

Bree and Clint, the podcast. Appreciate that. All right. What was top of the charts on your 16th birthday? That's what we do here at Birthday Banger. And who's playing first? Lucas. Hello, Lucas. Heya.

G'day. How's it going? Good. How are you? Yeah, no, great. Nice and hot here in Wellington. Hot, Lucas. Hiya. G'day. How's it going? Good. How are you? Yeah, no, great. Nice and hot here in Wellington. Hot in Wellington? God, there's your turn to play books, eh?

Is it? There you go. What's your birthday? It's hot, but the wind is going about 400 k's an hour at the moment. It cools it down a little bit, yeah. Just kidding. Love Wellington. Lucas, what's your birthday, man? My birthday is 12th of September, 2001.

All right, you were 16 in 2017, not that long ago, on the 12th of September. And Lucas, this is your birthday banger. I feel glorious, glorious. Oh, no. Bit of Macklemore. It's a beautiful Macklemore song. Yeah, glorious. Love that one.

Who's the singer on this? I think it might be the same singer he used on a few of his other tracks. Right, okay. Yeah. Do you like it, Lucas? Yeah, no, it's an awesome song. It's a really good one. Yeah, good.

God, Lucas has got a great attitude, doesn't he? He does, doesn't he? I really like him. Let's talk to Hayley. G'day, Hayley. Hi, Hayley. Hi, guys. How are you going?

Good. How are you? Good. Hello from a Hayley. Hi Hayley. Hi guys, how you going? Good, how are you? Good, hello from a sunny Auckland. Good from you Hayley. Sunny, but how's that traffic mate? Good from you. Crawling over the Harbour Bridge, it is brilliant. Always a good time Hayley.

Let's do your birthday banger, what's your birthday? 16th of November 87. Right, you were 16 in 2003 on the 16th of November. And in the early 2000s, this went to number one. No! Nickelback. Which means no matter what comes up, Bree's going to vote for this song. What a song Hayley

What's your feelings about Nickelback Hayley? Loving it Yes Hayley underrated Is it me that's the hater? Am I wrong? You're the hater Am I? Go against the crowd

What the pack's saying Nickelback are great We've got one more to do If we can get 15 text messages to 9696 saying they actually like Nickelback, then I'll vote. Okay, 9696. Yeah, we've got time. If you like Nickelback, text through now. Equally, if I get 15 texts saying Nickelback sucks, I will block this one with all my might.

You know people are much more driven to send some hate messages. No, no, I think one way or the other we'll get a result. Not before Susie has a go though. Hi Susie. Hi, how are you going? G'day Sus. Let's do your birthday banger. Oh God, way older than these people. No, they're the best ones.

17 plus 66. Alright, you were 16 in 1982 on the 17th of May, Suze. And on that day, this went to number one. Whoa, this has to be brilliant. This is a tune. What a tune.

This is it. This has to be it. And then Britney Spears redid it back in the day. I thought this chick was covering Britney. Oh, no, I think it's the other way around. You like it, Suze? I love this song. Very good.

Would you play this or Nickelback? Oh, absolutely this. Yeah, I thought so. There is a lot of text asking for Nickelback. The text machine is overloading. It's going ballistic. Up Nickelback, which I think means yes to Nickelback. Yes to my fellow Nickelback fans.

There is some Nickelback hate, but I reckon it's probably 10 to 1 pro Nickelback. 10 to 1. People love the back. I love rock and roll songs so good, though. It is very good. Well, what's your vote? Are you voting for Nickelback? After all of this, are you voting for Nickelback?

I mean, I think we've played Nickelback before. Are you going to not vote for it? I effing love Nickelback. Clint is a hater. I've got to back them in because you know what they say. My neck, my back, play some Nickelback. Come on, after that you have to go with me on it. Oh, plug. Come on, after that you have to go with me on it.

Come on, the text machine, give the people what they want. Hayley, you won birthday beer, congratulations. Yes, Hayley, we did it! Together! this why weren't we able to see the signs that we missed the trash and the tables i wish you'd have clenched your fists and unpack your suitcase lately there's been too much of this but don't think it's too late nothing's wrong just as long as you know that someday i will See you next time. I'm gonna make it alright But not right now I know you're wondering When

Well I'd hope that since We're here anyway We could end up saying Things we've always needed to say So we could end up staying Now the story's played out like this Just like a paperback novel Let's rewrite it and name it Fist

Instead of a Hollywood horror Nothing's wrong just as long as you know That someday I will Someday, somehow We're gonna make it alright But not right now I know you're wondering where You're the only one who knows that

Someday somehow I'm gonna make it alright but not right now I know you're wondering where You're the only one who knows that No stand How the hell did we wind up like this? Why weren't we able to see the signs that we missed? And try to turn the tables Now the story's played out like this Just like a paperback novel

Let's rewrite an ending that fits Instead of a Hollywood horror Nothing's wrong Just as long as you know That someday I will Someday, somehow We're gonna make it alright But not right now

I know you're wondering Where the only one who knows that Someday, somehow We're gonna going to make it all right, but not right now. I know you want to rain away. You're the only one who knows that. I know you want to rain away. You're the only one who knows that. I know you want to rain away.

Crikey. Brian Klein, that's the winner of Birthday Banger, Nickelback. How could you not like that? We have never had so many texts about a Birthday Banger. And for that reason, I'm going to propose something radical right now. I already had the same feeling you were having. Was it back-to-back Nickelback? It's Nickelback-to-back. And I can't believe that I'm saying this i can't believe that i'm actually gonna say this

let's do a test if you want back to back nickelback we'll take one call we'll take okay one call live to air one call because because there is some text there saying no to nickelback like the person who said i'd rather poop in my own hands and clap than listen to Nickelback to back. I mean, everyone, you know, you're entitled to your opinion. It's just, I'm not exaggerating when I say we've never had this many texts. There's hundreds. We've never had this many texts about Birthday Banger. And that includes when we played

Queen 3-Pete. Yes, the Queen 3-Pete will go down in history. That's an important week that we played five, three times in a row. Yeah, what about the Triple Five? We would have played five, five times, but we ran out of five songs. All right, one call. One call. This is big pressure because the phone lines are full.

Wait, we need to really channel this. If the person says no, we move on. Yes. And then we play some Jonas Brothers or something. No, we've got to pass. This is the one moment. This is the right moment to play back-to-back nickelback. Okay, Ellie has got someone for us.

They're locked in. Okay, all right. Jade, is it a yes or a no? It's a no to the nickelback-to-back. No, please, no. Boo! Can we block her? Let's block her from the station.

If you can't block me, you can only block Nickelback I'm overriding it This is the only radio station Our car picks up where you're not having I know Jade I'm so annoyed Someone's

Sorry, we have to stop. Someone's texted and said, go away Jade, you tasteless swine. Hey, you're a tasteless swine who ever texts that. I'm so bloody happy that you picked up, guys. Thank you. I love Jade just throwing shade back

at the text machine. Love it, Jade. Thanks for calling through. Well, it was almost a momentous occasion, but it's not to be. So. Nah, I'm leaving. I'm out. That was the one time we could have played back-to-back Nickelback. Should we take one more call?

Should we take one more? If we take one more call and it still says no, then we're moving on. Then we move on. A hundy pee. But what about Jade? What about Jade? She got the vote. She got the vote.

Yeah, but guess what? I'm torn. I'm so torn. Sometimes you've got to break the rules. One more call. Oh, no, it's going to be a no. Hayden, back-to-back Nickelback. Big guess.

Tell Jade and her car with no band expander and Hamilton or something to get out of here. We're doing it. Yes, Hayden. I just want to express my sincere apologies to Jade. Yes, I'm sorry, Jade, but sometimes, you know, you've got to go to the next caller. And Hayden, you're a hero today. Hey, thanks.

You're a hero. I feel like this is a rigged election. Look at this photograph Every time I do it makes me laugh I feel like this is a rigged election. Look at this photograph. Every time I do it makes me laugh. Why did our eyes get so red? And what the hell is Anjo we said? This is where I grew up.

I picked the prison on a fixed it up. I never knew we ever went without. The second floor is hot for sneaking out This is where I went to school Most of the time I had better things to do Criminal records says I've broken twice I must have done it half a dozen times What if it's too late? Should I go back and try to graduate

Life's better now than it was back then If I was them I wouldn't let me Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, God, I Every memory of looking out the back door I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor It's hard to say it Time to say it

Goodbye Goodbye Every memory of walking out the front door I found the photo of the friend That I was looking for It's hard to say it Time to say it Goodbye

Goodbye to say it goodbye goodbye goodbye we used to listen to the radio and sing along with every song we know we said someday we'd find out how it feels To sing no more than just the steering wheel Kim's the first girl I kissed I was so nervous that I nearly missed

She's had a couple of kids since then I haven't seen her since God knows when Oh God I haven't seen her since God knows when. Oh, God. Every memory of looking out the back door. I have a photo of him spread out on my bedroom door. It's time to say it. Time to say it. Goodbye.

Goodbye. Every memory of walking out the front door. I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for It's hard to say it, down to say it Goodbye, goodbye I miss that town I can't believe it So hard to stay

So hard to leave If I could relive those days I know the one thing that would never change Every memory of looking out the back door I have a photo of it spread out on my bedroom floor Bye. ZM, Bree and Clint, that is Nickel Back to Back. Something we do every Wednesday. Yeah, every Wednesday. Every Wednesday we do nickel back to back. To the person who's texting in three-peat, calm down.

Yeah, I mean, let's not get crazy. Calm down. Or should we? Let's do it. We can't play three nickel back songs in a... No, I'm kidding. We can't. No, I'd play Rockstar.

That was Rockstar. Oh, it was? That sounds weird, eh? It does sound weird We're not doing it, by the way This is just a little sampler I threw a stand in And I had the clubs

I'll never get in It's like the bottom of the nine But I'm never gonna win this Life didn't turn out quite the way I want it to be Tell me what you want God, now we're getting bombarded with three peak texts and someone just said you could call it a triple back. No, that's actually something else.

Okay, we gotta move on. We are well over time now, but we'll be back in a second. ZDM Spree and Clint, the podcast. Attention, everyone who's struggling to buy presents for girls who are over 18. Yeah. Here's an idea. Okay. You know what I always say, Clint?

I'm very passionate about improving the health and strength of pelvic floor muscles. You've never said that once. No, I say that a lot. It's very important. You've never expressed an interest in that at all. I've never heard you speak about Kegels. I've never heard you talk about Jade Eggs. I love to really kind of promote bladder control, core strength.

Well, it's important. It's super important. I'm not here to say it's not important. I'm just saying I didn't realize you were an ambassador for the cause. I'm a big advocate, yes. No, I'm the face of pelvic floor exercises. That'll hold you in good stead if you ever have a child. Yes.

And it is super important, especially if you've had a child. But even before that. It's important, too, if you want to go to one of those trampoline parks. Yep. If you don't want to wet yourself in public. A hundred percent. Yeah. Well, this game might be for all those ladies listening

who want to improve their pelvic floor. Okay. Because there is a game. Listen up, ladies. Yeah, listen up. This is for you. There's a game that's been invented. It's called Perifit, and it's essentially –

you're going to hate this. It's essentially – so how do I explain it with kind of tiptoeing? You have your phone. Yeah. And then it comes with a controller. Yeah. And the controller you don't use with your hands. Oh, it's a hands-free device.

Right. It has to be. It's hands-free. I get it. I get it. And you place the controller. Yeah, I get it. No, we get it. We get it. I get it. Okay, right-free. I get it, I get it. And you place the controller. Yeah, I get it. No, we get it, we get it. I get it, we get it.

Okay, right, you get it. Yeah, we get it. And I don't think that's a bad thing. No, I think it's awesome. I'm not grossed out by that. It promotes, yeah, all those things I just said. I mean, I wouldn't do it, but I couldn't do it. Well, you can't do it on this.

No, I couldn't do it. Unless you want to improve. No, I couldn't do it. Your other control. No, no. Anyway, essentially how it works is the game is kind of like, do you remember the game Flappy Bird? The iPhone game.

Do you remember that game? Yeah. And like so Flappy Bird is. You've got to keep the bird in the ear. Yeah, so you'd hold down on the phone when you wanted the bird to fly. Yeah. So think of that, but the controller is where you have to tense Oh my god

And then let go That's genius Exactly So if you want the character And it syncs to your phone So you use your phone screen Yes So you use your phone screen

You insert the controller And then when you want it to obviously bounce You tighten and then release Oh my god That has so many applications I'm thinking like a pinball game Yep Oh you can play pinball

I'm also thinking like Mario Kartball game. Yep. Oh, you can play pinball. Pinball. I'm also thinking like Mario Kart 2 player. So you and a friend and you sync it up to the TV and so it's on the TV screen. I don't know if it steers. No, okay. Well, Mario Kart's the wrong one. Yeah, Mario Kart's out. But you could do like a first person shooter, you know?

You could do first person. Imagine that. Bang, bang, bang. Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. Just don't play it on the bus. People might get freaked out. The name of that game one more time was? It's Perifit. Available now.

Merry Christmas, everybody. Hope that's in your stocking. Me too. We've got, well, I guess this is breaking aviation news, actually. A story more for the upper echelon of aviation news enthusiasts. Those with a bit more money to throw around. Those who like the finer things in life. That's right.

I'm speaking to you, Kuru members. Yeah, people who love the air points. They love the perks. Now, I was lambasted for quite a long time on this show. Lambasted? For being, yeah, ridiculed. What is that? I've never heard that word. Ridiculed, taken to task.

I was roundly verbally abused. When you're using words like lambasted, then you're bound to get taken on a ride. Look, I treated myself to a Kuru loungeounge once, a Kuru Lounge membership. How many years in a row did you have it? Be honest. I had three good years out of it. Yes.

And then I let it lapse. I thought, no, I no longer feel like a person of the people. I'll let it go. Oh, that's not why you let it go. Yes, it is. Come on. What's the real reason? You got one.

I don't need one anymore. Yeah, exactly. And you said every time I fly is with you so I'll just use yours. Yeah, 100%. It's a great system. Anyway, Bree's now the Kuru member of this show so this news is for you. Horrific news, the

Air New Zealand Domestic Kuru Lounge in Auckland City is now alcohol free. Well, why do I have the membership then? Exactly right. That's what I've got it for. For those who don't know, it's access to a private airline lounge.

It's not that private. Heaps of people go in there. There's actually a lot of people in there. It's a bit overcrowded, if anything. Yeah. And they have free food, free coffee, but most of all, they have free alcohol. Booze. Yeah, that's 90% of what your membership is for.

They, obviously to do that, they require a liquor licence and the Auckland Domestic Kuru Lounge did not realise that their licence was about to expire and they let it lapse much like me with my Kuru membership and it's going to take time

to get it back. So until they get a new licence, there's no alcohol in there. That's a big mistake. Hey, Producer Ellie, can she hear me? Can you guys hear us? Yeah, they can hear you. Remember that time when we all flew to LA in the best part because we all went to the lounge.

It was great, very lovely, and you and I ended up taking a whole bottle of champagne away from the drink station? Did you? Did we? Yeah. And then we got in trouble for it. They were like, you're not meant to take the whole bottle back to your seats. Oh, did you take it onto the plane

or back to your seats? No, just back to our seats in the lounge. Life hack, if you've got a good carry-on bag, you can get a whole bottle from the lounge. What? Yeah, to your seat. No! That can happen? Well, I've seen Fletch and Vaughn do it before. Oh. I know what I'm doing on Saturday Anyway, that's not a Bree and Clint endorsed message

No, you didn't hear that here If you're flying domestically on Air New Zealand, you can't anyway because the Kuru Lounge is now alcohol free You can shove some of those miniature sandwiches in your pockets, though. I'm so glad you said pockets. ZM's Free and Clint. The podcast with mobile smiles. Register, fill up, redeem points for rewards.
