Hey everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. I've got a cat update for those who are interested. Oh yeah, your cat's eye. Poor thing. Pink eye. No, not pink eye. Yeah. No, herpes.

Well, pink eye, herpes. It's a form of, yeah. Yeah, she got herpes in her eye. This is my cat Ziggy, by the way. For those who don't know or don't follow me on Instagram where I post most of my cat photos, I have two cats, two British Shorthairs, designer cats. And you prostitute them out, obviously.

And I do not prostitute them out, only for money. Only for sponsored posts. Yeah, so technically. No, I did not sell her in that way. She has contracted a viral thing. I don't know. You get herpes in the eye. So it's like, you know how you get cold sores?

Yes. And they're a form of herpes. Yep. Facial herpes. Yep. So cats can get it in their eye. Can we? I don't know.

The only thing I know is we as humans can't catch cat herpes. Right. So we're all good. It's a different strain. It's a different strain. Although you can catch the herpes mouth version on your genitals. Yeah, because it's the same virus. Yeah, from the same family.

I think. But no, I'm saying if you have a cold sore. Can you or is it an urban legend? No, you can. You can. Not that I have But you actually can That'd be so devastating There's so much stigma

Involved with getting that disease I feel And no one gets it on purpose So horrible For people who have cold sores Because it's not their bloody fault I was talking about The downstairs one

Oh that too Yeah Both People with cold sores Also cop it as well Anyway This is a great podcast intro Yeah it's good

Do you guys get coalsaws? I actually don't I don't think I've had them In my mouth It's not about you guys It's about my cat Sorry So my cat

Has got her cat herpes And I took her to the vet today She said to have an operation A very expensive operation Fifteen hundred dollars Do you have pet insurance? Yeah How much to put it down?

Shut your mouth. Shut up. I did not even inquire. I like how that just came out of your mouth without thinking. I have pet insurance, but her eye's not covered. It was a pre-existing condition when we got the insurance. God insurance is the biggest load of bullshit. Can I just say that?

You've got to have it, though. Oh, I hate it. You do have to have it. It's always an excuse. So today they did an operation where they shaved the surface of her eyeball, the cat's eyeball. They shaved your pussy. They shaved.

She's got an ulcer right on her eyeball. And so they had to scrape it off and scrape down to fresh skin. And this is the gruesome bit. So for it to heal, cats have got two eyelids. They've got the eyelid on the outside and they've got eyelids on the inside. Yeah, they might go like that. So her bottom inner eyelid has been taken up and stitched over the eyeball so the eyeball can heal. So I've got this cat walking around the house.

I haven't seen her yet. She's at home now with this mutated eye, eyeball thing walking around. Can you imagine how traumatic that would be as an animal? Because you have no idea what's going on. And you wake up in some strange person's room on this cold bed and one of your eyes isn't working. Oh, poor thing.

Did I ever tell you about the surgery I performed on one of our family cats? No. We had these little baby kittens that our cat had had. Is this a safe story? Yeah, no, this is a safe story. But this is we'll just give you an inside on You have to check all the time Just to be clear. Into growing up on a

farm. As your filter, is this okay? No, this is okay for the radio. Anyway one of the kittens, we don't know how but the kitten split its arm open, like it had a massive cut. Fighting. Huge cut in its arm. Yeah. It was like probably the whole length of the cat's leg.

Not arm. So it's arm or leg? Leg. It's a leg. Well, technically it was the front leg, so it's the cat's arm. Anyway. Cats have forearms, and it was on the forearm of the cat's fourth arm. Yes.

Yes. And you know what we did? We didn't take it to the vet. We put some antiseptic powder on it and then we put a waterproof band-aid on it and then put like a piece of pipe over the leg so the leg couldn't bend. You're so rural sometimes. Oh, my God. Anyway, it healed perfectly, had no issues. Well, you're lucky.

And my nonna ended up adopting the cat and had it for years. Oh, there you go. It's perfectly fine. So it's okay now? No, it's dead now. Unrelated? Unrelated. Unrelated.

Got stuck in a pipe. But I'm sure the $1,500 is worth it. Yeah, same. I don't think you could do anything about this surgery, you know? No. Like you couldn't just put a bandaid on it. I couldn't do it myself. Could have put a patch. The shocking bit is she's got the virus so she could get the herpes again in her other eyeball. Or in this

eyeball. Oh, it's hard being a parent! It's so hard being a parent to three children! Do you think, this might be too far for the intro, do you think your cat... This will be too far for the intro, by the way. Do you think, this might be too far for the intro, do you think your cat... This will be too far for the intro, by the way. Do you think...

Warning ahead. Warning actually is warning. Skip a minute. Skip a minute. Do you think, just putting it out there, your cat has herpes on the eye. Yeah. Do you think she gave another male cat a blowjob

and then licked her eyeball? Yep. Possibly. Like, is that? Yeah, that's what she did, yeah. Or she could have licked her own bits. All right. She does lick her own bits.

She's a cat. Exactly. That's why I'm saying it. All right. I need to get home. I need to get some kitty litter. I need to get home. Then this is a good message.

Do not let your animals lick you on the face. Okay. It's true. Or the genitals. Or the genitals. See, now you're on board. Here's the plot, guys, everyone. Bye.

Now let me see you dance. Z-Dams, Brie and Clint. Hey, everybody. Look who's back. It's your friendly neighbourhood Brie and Clint show. We're here, everybody. Look who's back. It's your friendly neighbourhood Brie and Clint show. We're here, everybody. We're back. Where's our trophy for showing up to work on a Wednesday?

Well, you know, these things happen the last however many weeks of the year. People have days off. Oh, we had a staff bonding day yesterday. It was wonderful. We did, and sometimes it's good to do those, and you should ask your boss to do one today. Say, hey, Brie and Clint had a staff bonding day yesterday and they

went to the pub and then they sound bonded. Can we get on that? And your boss will go, this sounds like a productivity bonanza. Yeah, let's do

bondage at work. Yeah, staff bondage. Go and ask your boss if you guys can go to the pub and then do some staff bondage. I think that's an HR issue.

You can ask HR. You can ask HR. That's fine. They're invited. Everyone's invited to the Christmas party. If anyone likes bondage, it think that's an HR issue. You can ask HR. You can ask HR. That's fine. They're invited. Everyone's invited to the Christmas party. If anyone likes bondage, it's HR.

Exactly. You know when they act all innocent, but they're not. Wait, are we still talking about unity? Yeah, bonding. Yeah.

That's what it's called, isn't it? Sweet. Just so we're all saying we're on the same page. We've got Star Wars prizes to give away at 5 o'clock today with Star Wars The Rise

of Skywalker in cinemas December 19. We'll give you a chance to open one of the doors on our giant Star Wars board that's here in studio just after 5. Yeah, there's some good prizes in there. I've already had a peek. You're not supposed to have a peek. Oh, you're not. It's meant to be impartial. It's meant to be a secret. Mate, I have the memory of a

fish I've already forgotten. Fantastic. Yeah, up next, I want to bring a list to the show and it's off Reddit, so brace yourself. A listicle. A listicle, and the Reddit thread was talking about what actor or actress ruins

it for you. Ruins the experience. Yeah, like when you're watching a movie and maybe for some reason, a particular actor or actress, and you're like, I just can't get over that part of it. Are you going to say that much loved actor that has passed away that you hate? I don't hate him.

Oh my god, shut up. We'll talk about it next. ZM. ZM Spree and Clint. The podcast. Came across a Reddit thread. God, that place is great. Reddit? It's so good. It's the front page of the internet. It is.

It is. If you haven't got onto Reddit yet, where have you been? But it was a Reddit thread which was talking about certain actors and actresses who instantly ruin a movie watching experience for you.

Right. And it can be for an array of different reasons. Yeah. Like you don't necessarily just have to not like them. It could be for other reasons, you know. Yeah. Like, you don't necessarily just have to not like them. It could be for other reasons, you know? No, it doesn't just have to be a deep-seated, unfounded hatred

of someone you've never met. Like, it could be that. It could be that. But it doesn't have, not necessarily. Isn't it weird when you find yourself disliking someone that you don't know? Yeah. Give them a break.

Yeah, but maybe they did something for you to be that way. Yeah, there is that, yeah. But I'll read out a few that people have messaged in to Reddit, this Reddit thread. Someone said, John Travolta for me, post-2000. As soon as I see him, I know I'm in for a mediocre performance at best. Right, yeah, because he was all that and a bag of chips for a while. Wasn't he?

And then, oh, I think he did some good stuff in the 2000s. Have you seen Broken Arrow? Yeah, great film. God damn, I'm on a rush. That't he? And then, I think he did some good stuff in the 2000s. Have you seen Broken Arrow? Yeah, great film. God damn, I'm on a rush. That's a great movie. I like Broken Arrow, but yeah,

I can get it with John Travolta. Think about Pulp Fiction. Yeah. And then think about movies. Afterwards. Post, yeah. Yeah. Not as good.

Okay, yeah. Someone wrote in and they said, Ruby Rose makes me want to turn off the TV straight away. Right. What is it about Ruby Rose makes me want to turn off the TV straight away. Right. What is it about Ruby Rose that gets you goat?

Maybe they kind of don't like her because she hasn't always been an actress. You know how people get funny about that. Because she used to be a DJ. Yeah, she used to be a DJ and a presenter. Yeah, but people change. Yeah, people can do other stuff. This one kind of... I'm going to be on Shortland Street in my 40s.

Yeah, that'd be good. I'd watch that. Yeah. I'd watch you on that. Someone said Beyonce. I thought Beyonce was amazing, can I say, in- Austin Powers. Austin Powers.

I'm foxy Cleopatra. I'm a whole lot of woman. Yeah. And she was great in Dreamgirls. Yeah, I haven't seen Dreamgirls. She was awesome in that. Hard to hate Beyonce. Very hard to hate.

You're swimming upstream with your anti-Beyonce content. Yeah, I think she's great. Someone said Katherine Heigl, which I'm, yeah, I kind of get that. People are funny about Katherine Heigl. Well, there was all those stories that came out that she was a bit hard to deal with. And now when I watch them, I'm kind of like, are you being rude to people in between these scenes kind of thing? Oh, I see what you're saying.

Christian Bale had a bit of that too. Christian Bale had that. But there was that actual audio of him yelling at the lighting guy. Yes, there was. See, I've got a couple, but it's not because I don't like them as people. Yeah. It's because I can't see them as something else. Yeah, I've got a few of those.

One of them for me is David Schwimmer in anything other than Friends. Tip it! Tip it! Tip it! Because he was in Friends for so long, to me, he's Ross. You're in luck.

He's Ross. Because there's not too many films with him in it. No, but he's in Band of Brothers. You know what he's amazing in is that OJ vs. The People. Yes. Real American Crime Story or something. He's so good at that. But to me, he's not acting when he's on Friends. Right, that's him. That's Ross.

Yeah. And then I'm like, oh, Ross is in a movie. But yeah. Oh, look, who else? Harry Potter. Yeah, you can't obviously any of those actors or actresses. You are that character. Sorry, that's who you are. You did seven films. Now, if you two don't mind, I'm going to bed before either of you come up with another

clever idea to get us killed or worse, expelled. She needs to sort out her priorities. He's my favourite on those movies, can I say? Ron Weasley. I love Ron. And I think, you know, obviously, what's Harry Potter's name? Daniel Radcliffe.

Radcliffe, that's him. He's probably the one that's got the toughest. Yeah, because Harry Potter. Yeah, he's like Macaulay Culkin. Exactly, yeah, but did a few more films. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, there's a big list and there's all these different reasons.

Someone said Rob Schneider. Rob Schneider ruins it for you. Yeah, and someone said's a big list and there's all these different reasons. Someone said Rob Schneider. Rob Schneider ruins it for you. Yeah, and someone said on this Reddit thread, they said Rob Schneider, and to top it off, he's also an anti-vaxxer. Is Rob Schneider an anti-vaxxer? I don't know. That's off Reddit, so it might or might not be true. Yeah, so we've got to be careful.

We're jumping to some serious conclusions here. Someone said Johnny Depp. Yeah. Will Smith. I love Will Smith. No, you Depp. Yeah. Will Smith. I love Will Smith. No, you get out of here, Will Smith. You leave Will Smith alone. He can do nothing wrong.

Let's put the list together, shall we? Yeah, let's put it together. All right, 0800DALZM and keep the text coming in on 9696. I do love one of the texts that came through. Someone said Tom Cruise is Jack Reacher. He's meant to be 6'4", and we all know Tom Cruise isn't. As he did, Tom Cruise is vertically challenged. Yeah.

We'll put that list together. If you want to contribute, you can call us now. Actors and actresses, you just, that ruin it for you. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Talking about a Reddit thread where people are sharing actors and actresses that just ruin the movie watching experience for them.

Sorry, that was a slippery finger. Oh, I wouldn't say that on the radio. I slipped with my... We're talking about actors and actresses that ruin it for you. Yeah, and it might be not just because you don't like them. It could be for a completely different reason. Like, you can't watch Daniel Radcliffe. No, you just see Harry Potter.

Yeah, and I get that because, I mean, he's cursed with that now, isn't he? The boy, the cursed child, absolutely. Someone texted in big deal and said they've worked with Daniel Radcliffe. Yeah, hold on, wait, I'll read this text out. It's quite interesting. Someone said, having worked with both Ruby Rose and Daniel Radcliffe, I can confirm Daniel Radcliffe is a top shelf human being. Yeah, I imagine that he is.

Yeah, and then I'm not going to read out what they said about... Yeah, they said some... Yeah, they said Ruby Rose's... Anyway, we're not here to slag anyone. We just want to know who ruins the movie for you. Hi, Abigail. Oh, hi. Who is it for you, Abigail?

Oh, it's got to be Kristen Stewart from Twilight. She's only going to be Kristen Stewart from Twilight, and her face just looks like a spectre. Oh, my God. I've only been 17. A while. Yeah, she's going to be... She's just done the Charlie's Angels movie.

You can't say something... Yeah, I know. She's completely ruined it for me. It's my childhood. Oh, no. These women are just like, oh, it's not the same. All right, are you team Edward or team Jacob? Oh, Jacob, you know.

You've got to have a bit of colour in your skin. Abigail does not hold back. Abigail is out to play today. I get it. The other guy's dead. Yeah, well true. Vampire. Hannah.

Hi. Hi, Hannah. Hiya. Who's the actor or actress that ruins the movie experience for you? So mine is Keira Knightley from Pirates of the Caribbean. She's the equivalent of Kristen Stewart to Abigail to me. I love – hang on. She's in Bend It Like Beckham as well.

She's great. No? No. I mean, she's just so mild, you know? It's like you're cooking and there's just not enough seasoning

and she's just, she's really awkward. Is it because she's English? I mean, could be, but I mean, I like a lot of English actors. You know,

Daniel Radcliffe is English, but I don't hate him. I love the cooking analogy. She is a little bit mild for me. But some people like that. And some people do like that, yeah. Some people can't handle a bit of spice. Who's this, just by the way, who's this spicy actress?

If she... Oh, Sofia Vergara. Sofia Vergara. Jennifer Lopez. Catherine Zeta-Jones. Oh, yeah. Yeah, okay, all right. And finally, Claire.

Hey, Claire. Hi. Who, yeah. Yeah, okay, all right. And finally, Claire. Hey, Claire. Hi. Who is it for you, Claire? It's, um, oh, I forgot his name. I blocked him from my memory. It's, um, Nicholas Cage. Nicholas Cage? You don't like Nicholas Cage?

No, I hate Nicholas Cage. He's only an ex-husband to me. I love my eyes. My eyes. Did you hear that Nicholas Cage has been cast to play Nicholas Cage in a movie about Nicholas Cage? Oh, he's such a fricking twit. Oh, all right. ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.

Now, this news breaks my heart, and I'm sure everyone on the Brian Clint Show's heart, when we learnt that Channing Tatum is in Australia right now. Dean, give us the latest on Channing Tatum. Your voices, I've never heard such a low lack of energy. You're both like, wah, wah. Channing Tatum is currently in Australia. He's launching the new Magic Mike Spectacular

that is going to tour Oz next year. It's literally going to all the big cities, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth. It's an extravaganza, if you will. He says it's going to be equal power, empowering and exhilarating. So I think that we should all go. So he's there. He's in

Melbourne right now. Some of my friends are sending me videos of the press conference that he's at. So there's two ways of attacking this. One of them is you just go. Yeah. Like why don't you just go to Melbourne? And try. And like find him at the airport or something. But the flip side of that, and Dean, your professional opinion,

like it's already bordering on Stalkerish. No, it's past Stalkerish. It's way past. We went to LA. So do you think, and for those who don't know, we have a sordid history with Channing Tatum. That's why we're talking about this. He followed Brie on Instagram.

Then we went all the way to LA to try and find him. And he ignored us while we were in the country. He screened us. I don't know if you can meet him now. I think, and Dean ignored us while we were in the country. He screened us. I don't know if you can meet him now. I think, and Dean, that's where I want your opinion. Now look, I've thought about this and I know what you're saying and I feel like if I have my mum with me

because he loves her, it might soften that whole stalkerish bloke. God, you're willing to use her for anything, aren't you? You're willing to use her. What do you mean use her? As if my mum doesn't want to meet Channing Tatum. Obviously, come on. Dean, you've done these red carpet things.

Do you think Bree showing up in Melbourne is okay or is that too far? Well, he might just think you're there. He might be like, oh my God, you're here. When I first, remember when I very first brought you up to him, his face lit up so much. He does love me. I love her. I love her mother. He would love to meet you. I think he would love to meet you. You're an

enabler, Dean. That's what you are. Keep telling me this. You're an enabler. I am booking a flight with Air New Zealand as we speak. I love Dean's idea of you just be there as well. Like you just casually bump in like, oh Channing, what are you doing here?

I work in the media. Maybe I'm there to interview people. Channing, I was just hanging out at this red carpet event for no reason. I didn't know you were going to be here. I didn't know you were going to be here.

How weird. How weird. We should catch up. Take your shirt off. Okay, that's Dean McCarthy. He's our Hollywood correspondent, the man in the know. Thanks to Amplify Kombucha.

Taste Amplified. Bree and Clint, the man in the know. Thanks to Amplify Kombucha. Taste Amplified. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. All this week and next week for the last few days of the year, our producers have scrapbooked some of the stuff that's happened on the show in 2019. And I'm glad that they're scrapbooking, you know, not just good bits, but also bad bits. No, we had your $11,000 global roaming bill yesterday. Yeah.

Which technically produces, that was a moment from 2018 and 19 because you were global roamed over Christmas. I did. I started in December and finished it up in January. A new company record for how much data someone used. I'm proud of that. And also don't want to talk about it ever again because I'm still in the bad books.

What was the stat they used? You used more data than the entire NZME Commonwealth Games coverage team. And they were actually, you know, reporting and making like content over there. You were making content. No, I was making fire content. Yeah, just not newsworthy content. Just not and not for the company. So today, let's take a look back at something else

that has gone on this year. Ah, once upon a time earlier this year, previous to now, Bree and Clint's 2019 scrapbook. Page 14. This year, Clint announced this very exciting news.

I've got some news. Well, you've known for a little bit. Not very long, though. Actually, we need to get the clip of when you almost revealed it on air. Do you remember? Yes. We're talking about plastic. And you go, you don't waste plastic anymore because you're having a baby. And I hadn't even told you at that stage. Oh, shit, I just did it.

You've just announced it. Oh, no. Here you go. It's happened. You're having a baby. No, no, no. No. My big announcement is my wife, Lucy, and I are having a baby.

Fast forward a few months and baby Tui was born. Now we look back at August when all of us had to deal with this. We can't leave without a good dad joke. So what do you call a man with a rubber toe? What? Roberto. What do you call a man with a rubber toe? What? Roberto What do you call a fat psychic? A fortune teller

I've got a documentary to watch when I get home I said it last night It's about beavers Best damn show I've seen in ages Yeah Bree's off to Queenstown this weekend There's a great bar Kadrona Pub?

Kadrona Pub, that's the one You've got to go When you order a drink Do they still serve it on the ground? Serve it on, they put it on the ground? Oh, what? Oh, have they changed that? Yeah. Oh, they must have raised the bar.

Did you guys hear the opening of a restaurant on the moon? Great food, no atmosphere. I'm cutting down some trees this weekend. Are you? Well, I've been doing it for a couple of years. I've cut down 4,031 trees. I know exactly how many I've cut down because every time I cut one down, I keep a log.

I'm a dad now. I've got a new superpower. Dad jokes. Tune in tomorrow for another page of Brian Clint's 2019 scrapbook. Best part of becoming a dad. How was you, me not hooking you up to a pregnancy simulator not in

that piece of scrapbook? That's a good point. I think we're actually not allowed to play that audio anymore because it is so disturbing. Also, some people got angry at me because I said that I've now experienced childbirth and I know what it's like. You just talked a lot about your bum. I said to my wife.

You were like, something feels like it's coming out my bum. I said to my wife in the birthing suite, it's okay, babe. I know what this feels like. Brie put me on the birthing suite, it's okay babe, I know what this feels like. Brie put me on the... You better not have said that. Brie put me on the birthing simulator. You better not have said that. ZM Spree and Clint. The podcast. 21 days

until Christmas. Brie, I know that because I'm not a Grinch. I love Christmas. I'm all about Christmas. It's the best time of the year. Love Christmas not a Grinch. Just because you say it before you're about to say what else you're going to say doesn't mean you're not. No, I just need to get that out there first. I'm not a Grinch.

I don't hate Christmas. Oh well. I think Christmas is wonderful. Brings people together. It does. Promotes happiness. It does. You get to eat delicious food. But I'm about to serve a Christmas hot take. And some people can't handle this.

You can't handle this. But some people need some time to come around to the truth, and that's okay. I'll just put it out there. Well, hurry up. Get on with it. I think Christmas presents should be cancelled. I think Christmas would be better if there were no presents. I think presents are an unnecessary and expensive distraction

from the true meaning of Christmas, which is family. Oh, I put it together concisely there, didn't I? And also presents. No. Cancel presents. See, when you talk about presents, you're talking about super expensive elaborate gifts. When I think of presents,

I think it's a way of doing something thoughtful that doesn't have to be about money. No, and you've got me twisted, girl. It's not about money. It's not about money. Presents are not about money. It's just as annoying having to go and buy someone an under $10 Secret Santa gift

as it is to go and buy a $250 gift. Oh, that sounded like a Grinch then. No, no. It's annoying for you, is it? Here's how I look at it. It's annoying doing something nice for someone else where you put in thought. I want to do something nice for you. I want to have you over at my house.

And I want to cook you some food and give you some ice cold beersies. That's what I want to do for Christmas. What about for kids? What about for kids then? Yeah, see, there's my Achilles heel and my theory. Like your little baby daughter, Tui. Yeah. Are you going to take gifts away from her for Christmas?

No, because she's an angel and I love her and I will give her everything she ever wants. So you're conflicted then? I am conflicted. I think some kids get too many presents. And you know what? I do too. And I think that some parents give their kids too much. God, I really am getting soapboxy here.

But if you give a kid too much and then his mate doesn't get as much, he's gonna go oh, Santa doesn't like me as much. God, I really am getting soapboxy here. But if you give a kid too much and then his mate doesn't get as much, he's going to go, oh, Santa doesn't like me as much. It's not about that, all right? So kids, Santa does presents for kids anyway. So they're taken care of. Don't worry about that. That's going to keep happening.

For us, I say cancel Christmas presents. I think you would have a more enjoyable Christmas if you didn't have to go present shopping. I don't care about getting gifts. I honestly don't. And Christmas for me, I love Christmas because I get to spend time

with my family. That is my favourite thing in the whole world and because we're all together. Yep. Exactly right. I actually really enjoy buying someone a gift.

I really like it. I don't need a gift. I don't need, but I do really like getting someone a gift because I like being able to put thought and effort in for something.

You're telling me you'd be happy if there were no gifts there for you? I wouldn't care. I honestly wouldn't care. I actually love giving a gift more than I like receiving it, and that I can honestly say. Right, okay. You think I'm full of crap, but it's true. I actually really love buying someone a gift.

Okay, I'm going to play my trump card in this argument. Yes. The environment. Giving presents is bad for the environment. Oh, come on. Wrapping paper is bad for the environment. Well, let's not wrap the gifts. Boom, that's fixed.

Packaging is bad for the environment. Buy a gift that's environmentally friendly. Boom, taken care of. Plastic is bad for the environment. You can't just say plastic is bad for the environment. Micro-plastics are bad for the environment. The fuel used to transport the goods to the shops and then the fuel used to transport the goods from the shops

back to your house is bad for the environment. Wait. This is a hot take, all right? I'm serving you a hot take right now. I want to know if you're super against gifts because you're a big Grinch, are you against Christmas decorations then? No, because you can reuse those. They're reused.

They're multi-use. What about a tree? What about when people get real trees? I think that's fine. They cut a tree down. That's bad for the environment. No, it was grown to be cut down. And then they plant another one the next year.

Christmas trees are regenerative. That's fine. But, yeah, if you want to get rid of the tree, we can do that. That's bad for the environment. It was grown to be cut down. And then they plant another one the next year. Christmas trees are regenerative. That's fine. But yeah, if you want to get rid of the tree, we can do that. That's fine. I'm happy to add that into my hot take. I'm saying cancel the presents, get the family around, spend your money on the food, have a good time, everybody. A little gift. And you don't have

to buy a gift for everyone. Do a secret Santa. Buy one gift. Not a big deal. Annoying. Okay, for your birthday, I'm not getting you a gift. No, birthdays are different. No, you said. Wait, so we're doing a Secret Santa here at our team. Yeah.

Does that mean whoever has Clint for Secret Santa, guys, producer Ellie, producer Ben, if any of you have Clint or if I have Clint, we don't have to get you a gift then? It does save me some money. I wouldn't mind not getting you a gift. No, no, no. If it's cancelled for me,

it's cancelled for everybody. Wait, no. If it's cancelled for me, it's cancelled for everybody. I love the gifts. Do you guys still want to do gifts for Secret Santa?

Yeah. I'd only like a gift if it's from Clint. Anyway, did I convince anyone with my hot take? Not Brie. She's never going to be on board.

Do you guys want to cancel Christmas presents? Nah. No one. No one. No one? Man, I rehearsed that and everything. Good try, Doug. Man, the text machine, Ellie, that was a hot take.

You better respond to some texts. There's news out today about what the marijuana referendum is going to look like. Because this time next year, New Zealanders are going to be given the chance to vote on whether they think it should be legalised. Yeah, well, I mean, we've seen it happen in the US of A recently. Has anyone made the joke that it's a marijuana referendum yet? Referendum. Has anyone made that joke? Surely someone's made that joke. Anyway, they've put out what's called draft legislation, so you know what you're voting for.

So do you want to know what the law is going to be like in New Zealand if weed gets legalised? Yeah, what exactly will happen? So to buy the weed and smoke the weed legally, you will need to be 20 years and over if it gets legalised. Why 20? And not 21 or not 18? I think because the research suggests that your brain is still developing as a teenager.

Right. So they don't want to give it to you. I don't know. 20 is what they're saying. 20 to buy weed. Nice round number. You won't be allowed to smoke. If it gets legalised in New Zealand, you won't be allowed to smoke weed in public.

You're only able to smoke it on private property, like at your home, or in like a coffee shop type situation. You can smoke it at a coffee shop? If they set up weed coffee shops, like they do in Amsterdam. Because the other thing is, you won't be allowed to buy weed in the same

place that alcohol is served. So you won't be able to go to a bar and get a beer and a joint. Yeah, because what's the saying? Weed before beer and you're in the clear. Weed after beer. No. Produce Ellie? What's the other one?

I got the first part. Weed after grass and you're on your ass. That's right. How do you know? The rest of the information. Okay. So, oh yeah, so you can't buy it at a pub, but that's why they do the coffee shop thing.

Right. Can you buy, will you be able to buy like weed food? Don't know. Like brownies and stuff? I think so. I think that's what they'll move towards. Yeah. Because I think they don't want you to smoke it, really.

You can smoke it, but smoking's the... It's more fun if you eat it, I've heard. So you've heard. You will be allowed to carry 14 grams of marijuana on your person. Okay, but like how much is that, a lot? So, I didn't think it was that much. Oh, 14 grams. From the research I've done, a tinny weighs...

What research have you done? I've Googled it. A tinny is one gram. So that's the equivalent of having 14 tinnies on you. Or a fitty bag is three grams, and it's like having five fitty bags on you. So you can have 14. 14 grams.

That's a lot. Yeah. If the law gets passed. Right. And that's what I know. That's what I know about it so far. You and I are having the conversation. I don't think it's going to get legalised.

I don't reckon it will either because a lot of young people don't vote. No. And this might get you out to vote if you really want it legalised. I really want to see medical marijuana be a lot more accessible to the people who need it. Me too. And that's what I think should be

regardless of what happens with this. Yeah. Just give the people who need it. Me too. And that's what I think should be, regardless of what happens with this. Yeah. Just give the people what they need. My gut says it's not going to happen. Yeah. There's too many people, because even if, you know,

funny things happen in the voting booth. Because you can say one thing outside it, and then inside you'll go, actually, no, I don't want that stuff legalised. Yeah, no one's in there watching you. And lots of baby boomers voting too. Yeah, the boomers love a vote, don't they?

But I thought they loved the weed too. Like I've seen the Woodstock documentaries. I thought they were all about that stuff. Yeah. Free love, baby. Anyway, that's what's coming up in the marijuana referendum next year. That's what you'll be voting on. It's quite good, that referendum.

Referendum. ZM, Spree and Clint, the podcast. You may have missed the news earlier this week that a member of the show is leaving us. Yes, unfortunately, at the end of the year, in a week and a bit, they will go on to something else. Yeah, they're moving on. Yeah.

That person is the Venute. She has overstayed her welcome. She's gone. She'll trade me at the moment. And if you really, really like her, you can go and buy her. Correct? Yes. The link is up on our Facebook page, ZM's Brian Clint on Facebook.

You can go check it out. I've been following the auction with Baited Breath. And I noticed, Bree, because you're running the auction, aren't you? Yes, I am. Quite a lot of unanswered Breath. And I noticed, Bree, because you're running the auction, aren't you? Yes, I am. Quite a lot of unanswered questions. Yeah. I mean, a lot of them aren't really questions about the Venute, though. What do you mean?

I mean, a lot of them have just been like, oh, I can't believe this is for sale. Sweet. Well, I thought we could deal with it all together in one go here. I've got some of the unanswered questions from the Venute Trade Me listing. Okay. And I thought I'd just answer them on the radio. Okay.

Yeah, cool. Let's cover it off. Joshy Man 45 wants to know, can I come and have a look? Of course you can. You can? Yeah.

You can come have a look. Cool, that's easy. Joshy Man, yes you can come and have a look. Okay. Big Ad I was asked on Trade Me, does it come in blue?

X Sean would like to know automatic or manual transmission. Cheers. She's neither. She's a column shift, which is a very great transmission. Yeah. Some would say the worst of all transmission. I mean, best of all transmissions. I mean, best of all transmissions. Yeah, the best.

Yeah, she's a column shift. Bree didn't know that there was more than two gears when we got the Venute. No, I thought there was three. That's how complex. It's a five speed. It's a five, yeah, it's a five speed. Bree goes,

geez, not a lot of power down here in first. I was like, you're in third. Yep, I was taking off in third. Okay, Surfer065 would like to know, do we win a date with Bree if we win the auction? Thanks. If it makes the sale, then yes. Okay, that's a yes to a date with Bree.

Will it be in the Venute? Will you sure? When this van's a-rockin', don't come a-knockin'. Parked It has asked on the Trade Me auction for the Venute, does it have skid marks or did you figure out how to remove those? She does very good skids. She does do good skids. Just like her mum.

The skid marks are your own. It's as is, where is this auction. As is, where is. Twack Twackling Twackling87 would like to know. Great trade me name. Hi, what's the suspension like? Yeah, um, well, you've been in it.

She's a bouncy ride. She is a bouncy ride, but it makes it more fun. And the thing about driving a van, if you haven't done it before, is you are sitting on top of the front suspension. Yeah. Like you're the very front of the vehicle. Oh, it's definitely more an experience. Yeah. Like you're at the very front of the vehicle. Oh, it's definitely more an experience. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Smooth drive. Yeah. It's a full body experience. Yeah. Riding in the Venute. And finally Stunner has asked on your Trade Me Auction for the Venute, and this must be referring to something in the description. Bree, what do you mean by Aussie sex appeal? Oh,

oozes sex appeal. You spelt it O-Z-Z-E-Z. Yeah, oozes. Yeah, what do you mean by Aussie sex appeal? Oh, oozes sex appeal. You spelt it O-Z-Z-E-Z. Yeah, oozes. Yeah, what do you mean by it? Oozes sex appeal. Look at it. When you look at it, it just oozes out sex appeal. Yeah, to be honest, if you don't understand that one then you're barking up the wrong tree. The venute is not for you. Yeah, it's not for you. It's sex on wheels, okay?

Isn't it? And you're going to get a lot of dates if that's what you're looking for. If you want the venute as part of your life going forward, then you need to go and bid on her. The link is on our Facebook page. To buy the Venute on Trade Me. Go, old girl. Buy now.

Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. You know when you have a really good idea and you feel like no one's invented it yet, but you could invent it and make heaps of money? Like when I invented Uber. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like when I invented Uber. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Like that.

Like that. I had one of these ideas and I actually told you about it probably like a month ago and I've just read online that someone else has bloody created it. Oh, like when someone else went and created Uber. Yes. Oh, then I can relate. Oh, so annoying.

You did tell me about this idea if it's the one I'm thinking of. Which I don't, just because you said it to me, I don't think that's legally binding. I don't think that's how a pattern works. But feel free to say what it is now. I told you about a month ago, I said, I've got a really good idea where I want to invent some sort of coating that you spray on your toilet bowl so you don't get skid marks.

Because, I mean, we have to waste a lot of water with double flushing. I mean, I struggle with the, you know, the skid mark issue. You're a skiddy person. I am, so it would be very on brand for me. I could promote it. I did say to you when you said this, I'm pretty sure someone will have invented this already. No, they hadn't.

And I've just read an article Because apparently researchers in the US Have just announced they've created An ultra slippery toilet coating Right Is that one that you apply after the fact So you've already got your toilet And then you go and like spray it on Yeah so you'll spray it

And they say the one that they've created Is exactly what I was thinking too. So they reckon it'll last around 500 flushes. Right. It does beg the question, why has no one made a Teflon toilet already? Exactly. Why has no one just put out a non-stick toilet from the factory? But then I was also thinking, do toilets exist that are, you know,

more, I guess, not susceptible to skid marks? Let's call a toilet store. Yep. And I want to just find out if there's a certain style of toilet that is better for skid marks. All right, let's do a bit of research. Afternoon, plumbing world. This is Dean. Dean, I was wondering if you could help me out

I was wanting some information on the best non-skidmark toilets you have Mum, mum, mum, probably if you ring one of our showroom branches would be better Right So two things, some of the European toilets are always going to skid mark Because they have a shelf Right Because I mean Me and my husband I'm having real dramas

Because we fight constantly Because he doesn't scrub His bloody skid marks And I thought I'm going to buy a toilet And then we won't have that issue You know Yeah

So you get one of the good toilets But also they have The ones that have It's called high glaze Or something Yes So I'll give you you tested it yourself personally no I haven't I'll just what do you call the

high-glace stuff that doesn't skip mark on the toilets what's the name for it I like to call this we can't remember the name being a trade branch. Right. Dean, sorry, mate. It's the husband here. Oh, my bloody husband's here now, Dean. You just talked to my wife. That's all right. Yeah, yeah. Classic story where it's my fault. It's always the husband's fault, isn't it? It is your fault.

It's never their fault. It's never the woman's fault. No, because I'm married. I know all about that. Drives me insane, Dean. Two questions. Can she pop a squat on one of the toilets? Can I test it?

No. So we can't test it, but is it guaranteed skid free Dean? You have to ask them in the showroom that. Second question. Can you maybe solve our other marital issues? Do you have an automatic self-closing toilet seat? Or just a toilet... Because I'm sick of being told

that I have to put the toilet seat down. You put it up! Yeah but you... I want it up! You that wants it down... Sorry Dean you're really getting dragged into the middle of a family domestic here. No worries. No, I really appreciate

your help. So, trade, what was the name of it again? I'll just write this down. I'll give you the phone number for our bar. That'd be amazing. Hold on, how's this? What's my computer doing that for? I'm going to unscrew that lid on that toilet so you can literally not, I'm going to superglue it down. Yeah, well, I'm going to take it off and I hope you fall in.

Hold on. Where are we? We want Lenev. There we go. All right. Hurry up, computer. You want 5740057. Perfect.

And they'll be able to help me out. Yeah, that's Lenev Branch. Just ask for the showroom, the girls in the showroom will be able to do it. No worries. Amazing. You've been a big help, Dean. Appreciate it. No worries.

Lord, heaven's above. I'm only human after all. Oh, great voice. Is that Rag and Bone Man or is that someone doing a cover?

What's your name? Holly. Holly, here's your it in. Absolutely correct. Well done, Kylie. You're one point on the board. What's your name?

No, that is five seconds of summer. That was five sauce not hitting their own high notes. That was a hard one. That was a hard one for you, Holly. Back to you, Kylie. You can go two ahead here. Who's this? Somebody to hold.

It's easy to say, but it's never the same. Who's this? Is that Lewis Capaldi or is it someone? Do it again. Oh, that is hard. I'll say it's Lewis. I'm going to lock in the real Lewis Capaldi. Absolutely correct. Well done.

You're on fire. Holly, who's your second one? Sunny change in the atmosphere. Hockey teacher unfamiliar. I could get used to this. I mean, it's no me, George Ezra impersonation, is it? Brie does a great George Ezra. I do a very good. Is that the real George Ezra or is that Brie? That's the real George Ezra.

I sound exactly like that, though. Yeah, well done. What does that make the score? 2-1. That's it, 2-1. 2-1. All right, you can win the game here, Kyla. Ooh.

What about this one? Sun change in the atmosphere. Architecture. I'm familiar. I could get used to this. I've been riding shotgun underneath the hot sun. Pretty good, if you ask me. Yeah, that's a broad.

No way. No way. That's going to be very difficult to pick. Take your time. You can't win on that one. Sorry, it's too easy. We've got to give you a different one. That was good.

That was just for fun. You can't win the game with that. Who's this? I want to blow you on by. Just come with me, I swear. I want to take you somewhere warm. You know I told them this. Oh, is that Niall Horan or is that someone doing a cover?

Oh, I'll go cover. Locking in cover. No, that was Niall. No, that was Niall. That was Niall Horan. Okay, you can force a tie break, which we're completely unprepared for, Holly. So let's hope. Let's hope you get it wrong. Let's hope you get it wrong.

Good luck, good luck, good luck. Tender love that I could not foresee. Oh, is that the real queen herself, Celine Dion, or is that someone doing a cover? I'm going to go with Celine. You're going to lock in the real Celine. No, sorry, that was real Celine. No, sorry. That was a cover. That was someone doing it.

That was good, though. That was a good day. Good cover. Not your day, Holly, but it is yours, Kyla. Congratulations. You've won some free mobile fuel. Yay. And you've also won this live version.

I'll be riding shotgun on the net. It's so uncanny, isn't it? I know, right? Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. I wanted to talk about our Christmas party because obviously everyone around the country, they'll be gearing up hopefully for a Christmas party unless you've got a stingy boss. Unless you're self-employed.

Unless you're self-employed, yeah. Oh, you can still have a Christmas party. You can still have a Christmas party. And the bill will be cheap. Yeah, just yourself. But our Christmas party this year here at ZM is themed. Yep. Most of the time I think they're themed.

Yeah. It's a dress up and the theme this year is Kiwiana. Which straight away with Kiwiana, you go to the classics, right? You go Jandals, Stubbies. I call it a flannel, but what do you guys call it? The shirt? Yeah. Oh, a bush shirt.

A bush shirt, yeah. Yeah. What are the other classics? Like the old school ones that have been around forever. Singlet Tan, that sort of thing. But we're wondering, is it time that that gets a bit of a freshen up? What's the 2019 version of Kiwiana? Yeah, are we still that?

Or do we have some, have we changed? Or do we just have a whole lot of things that we need to add to the Kiwiana list? And with this, you might actually help us decide what we go to the Christmas party as. Someone just texted in and they said, Brie, dress up as Clint's baby. What? Okay, yeah. I mean, her name is Tui.

Yeah, true. Yeah, true. I could go as a Tui. You could go as Tui, drinking a Tui. Like that. With a Tui on your shoulder. That's good. That is weird.

That's a weird text, though. I really want to dress up as her at some point. I'm thinking new Kiwiana. We brainstormed some earlier. Like, what was the one you said? I said you could go as the skinny Paula Bennett. Skinny Paula Bennett is new Kiwiana. That's a perfect example.

That's new Kiwiana, yep. Yeah, yeah. Skinny Stan Walker. You could go as skinny Stan Walker. Yeah, there's the male or female version. You could go as Chloe Swarbrick smoking a big joint. Yes. Like that could be new Kiwiana.

That's great. You could go as Jacinda Ardern on the DJ tables. Oh, DJ Jacinda Ardern. Yeah, because she used to be a DJ. DJ Major Labor. You could go as Jacinda Ardern as an Uber driver picking up celebrities from the airport. That's good.

But what is it? Oh, you could go as the All Blacks collecting third place at the Rugby World Cup. That might be a bit soon for people. No, but easy. You just get a bronze medal in your All Blacks jersey and you're good to go. You could go as the Wizard from Christchurch.

Yeah. I wouldn't call him new Kiwiana. He's pretty old school. But you're on the right track-ish. Let's brainstorm this together. Okay, let's get some ideas in for new Kiwiana. Do you want one from the tech machine before we go? Yeah, I'd love one.

Someone said you could go as Karen who wants her 20 bucks back. See, that's perfect. That is what we want. Yes, Karen goes on the list. I don't know how to dress up as Karen, but I just hear you have a pack of ciggies under your sleeve. Yeah. And 20 bucks.

Oh, $800 at M. Keep them coming in. We want examples of new Kiwiana. Let's update the list in time for Christmas. And like I said, the best one, we could go to our Christmas party as. Yeah, I'm keen. What have you got, everybody? We want your creative thinking caps on this afternoon.

ZM, Spree and Clint. The podcast. We've got a Christmas party coming up. The theme is Kiwiana. We don't want to do boring old Kiwiana. I don't want to go as a packet of fish and chips. I want to do something original. Yeah, update the list.

And we've asked you to help us. What is new Kiwiana? What is Kiwiana in 2019 looking like? Hey, Crystal. Hi. Crystal, what do you think it should look like? You guys should do what you got, like how you, Brie, are Australian and Clint, you're Kiwi.

You should do the opposite. So me go as Australian? Yeah, and Brie goes to the Kiwi. That's not a bad idea. Can you grow a mullet? It's not the animal Kiwi Brie, I mean, like, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get what you're saying. So we have to check out what the gendels and stuff,

and I don't know what you guys do in Australia, Australia. Are you saying a mullet is Australian? No. No, I'm asking Bree. It's very Australian. I think it's very Kiwi. But so are jandals in Australia. Wait, are they? But you guys call them thongs.

Yeah. You do? No, I don't think we argue on this. I think a mullet and jandals, I think they're Anzacs. Both. They're Anzacs. Yeah, they're Anzacs. Yeah.

Okay, thanks, Crystal. Good idea. Let's talk to Ria. Oh, they're Anzacs. Yeah, they're Anzacs. Okay, thanks Crystal. Good idea. Let's talk to Ria. Oh, Ra. Hey, Ra. Hi, Ra. Hey, how's it going? What do you think we should go as for the Kiwiana party? I reckon if you want to Kiwi it up, you should dress yourselves up as the election mascot.

The orange guy. Yep. And then you should chuck a big giant marijuana leaf on top and print 2020 over the top. Oh, 420 blaze it. Yeah, I like that. Oh, yeah, that'll light up the room. For the marijuana referendum.

Yeah, I like that. They have all the jokes we could make. You could do orange with just really bad fake tan as well. Yeah. Oh, that'll do it. You could be one of those Nutella guys. Yeah. Oh, you're referring to the video?

Yeah, orange face I think is still acceptable in 2019. Yeah, I think so. Do you want to hear a few texts on the old text machine? Someone said for the Kiwiana party, you should go as Max Key doing a torpedo with a long white. That is so spot on. That is very good. With an R&V tramp stamp.

Yes. Yes. I like that idea. Someone else R&V tramp stamp. Yes. Yes. I like that idea. Someone else said you should go as the What Day is Sunday, Father's Day lady. Oh, Father's Day. That'd be great. She's an icon here in New Zealand. You'd be good at that one, Ellie.

Yeah, you'd be perfect. You'd be perfect, yeah. Someone said you should go as Nick Minnit. Oh, the Nick Minnit guy. The Nick Minnit. Yeah. He's an icon. Someone said go as Johnny Danger.

Yeah. He's a tribute. He's Kiwiana. Kiwi icon. Hayden. The Nick Minot. Yeah. He's an icon. Someone said go as Johnny Danger. Yep. He's a... Tribute. He's Kiwiana. Kiwi icon. Hayden. G'day, Hayden. Oh, g'day.

G'day, mate. G'day, mate. What are we going to our Christmas party? What's new Kiwiana? New Kiwiana. So imagine it. Okay, it's 1994. We're in Dunedin.

It's got to be David Bain. Oh, Hayden. Oh, Hayden. Hayden. Hayden. So there's always one, Hayden. Oh, there's always got to be David Bain. Oh, Hayden. Oh, Hayden. Hayden. There's always one, Hayden. There's always got to be one. It's too easy to do him too because you just get an ugly sweater and some glasses.

Okay, I've got another idea. Yeah? Yeah. Okay, what about the dildo that got thrown at Stephen George? I like that one. I shotgun that costume. That thing right there is a Kiwi icon. Someone's way too keen on the dildo.

I've got a new idea for contact police. Yeah? He could go as the guy that played with himself on Target that time. Hayden, you're an absolute wealth of Kiwiana knowledge. I mean, all of your Kiwiana is horrifically inappropriate to wear to a work party. It's the greatest country in the world. It's the greatest country in the world. It is the greatest country in the world.

You're absolutely right, Hayden. I'm proud to live here and I'm proud to live here with you, my friend. I'm just picturing someone tuning into our show for the first time and thinking, what the hell is this? We'll take those into account. We'll make our mind up shortly. We'll go and get the costumes sorted. I'm keen.

Next on the... Keen for the dildo. Nigs on the show. Can you not say that again? Imagine if someone just joined us then. They'd go, what? Keen for the what? Bree and Clint, the podcast.

Please welcome to the show my mother, who birthed me out of a vaheen mumma die. Oh, Brianna. What? It is accurate. Oh, Brianna. What? It is accurate. You didn't come out the sunroof? No. No, my sister did.

Sorry, that's highly invasive. Good afternoon, Mama Di. Hello, Mum. It's a pleasure to have you back on the show. Hi, guys. How are you going? We're going well. Yes, we miss you too.

We haven't had you on for a while, but we thought it would be a good idea to get you on for this, Mum, because as you know, the decade is coming to an end. You know, as you get closer to 70, we get closer to a new decade. Brianna, third income, I'm a long way off 70. A long, long way. I mean, two years isn't far. Oh, Brianna. You're only as old as the man you're feeling, Mum, am years isn't far. Oh, Brianna.

You're only as old as the man you're feeling, Mum and Dad. And he's younger than me, Clint, so I should be wrong. I was going to say I'm looking forward to a visit from you. Don't be so disgusting. Anyway, Mum, there's a list that's been released about words that have been added to the dictionary this decade. Okay. So in the last 10 years, obviously, new words have been created,

made up, and Clint and I thought we would like to test your knowledge on some of the new words to see if you know what they mean. Okay. All right. This will be interesting. So here comes word number one. This was added to the dictionary this decade. Bay.

Bay, as in B-A-Y. No, that's a different spelling. You've got to give it the correct spelling. B-A-E. And I would say, oh, I'm actually hanging out with my bae this weekend. Or did we lose her? Oh, is she gone? Did she hang up?

Oh, don't wait. They're calling her back. I said we can get her back. They're calling her back. Do you think she bailed? Do you think she went enough of this shit? I'm over it. I'm absolutely spent.

Oh, don't wait. They've got her again. Have we got her back? She's finally cracked it. All right, she's through to us. Are you there, Mama Di? Yes, I am. I think you guys cut me off.

Sorry. No, I think you hung up with your ear. Anyway, do you know what bae, B-A-E, I'm going to hang out with my bae this weekend means? Your fiancé or your partner. She's got it. Yeah, we'll give you that one. Very good.

What about YOLO? YOLO. Oh, she's gone again. She's gone again. I love how we just were talking about how she's a boomer and now she can't work her phone. So is this true? Does she hang up using her face?

Sometimes. I love when I call her on FaceTime and all I see work her phone. So is this true? Does she hang up using her face? Sometimes. She puts her phone into the... I love when I call her on FaceTime and all I see is her ear. And then she says to me, she's like, oh, not the FaceTime. Let's do the ear time. She's back. Okay. Hey, can you put us on...

Sorry, can you put us on speaker? Is that okay? Oh, yeah. I can put you on speaker. No worries. And then we'll hold the phone out. She knows how to do that. That'll be safer.

Okay, YOLO. Do you know what YOLO means? YOLO means... I know a lady called YOLI. Does that count? YOLI. YOLI. YOLO.

YOLO. YOLO. YOLO. Maybe a roll in the hay? No. No, it means you only live once. You only live once. It's an acronym.

It's an acronym. What is a schmooze fest, Mum? Having a bit of a cat nap in a festival. In a festival? No. Just means it's an event or meeting where there's a great deal of schmoozing. No, it should be a catnap at a festival. Next time I go to a festival, I'm going to do some schmoozing.

Yeah, I agree. Yep. What does noob mean? Well, obviously something to do with running around in the nude. So noob. I've got no idea. Something to do with running around in the nude. So you've got no idea. Something to do with nude people. Yeah.

Let's just say yes. I don't think she'll understand the real version anyway. That's pretty good, I reckon. It's pretty good. You've done pretty well. Do you have any words you want to test her on while we're here? Yeah. Do you know what gooch means?

Oh, no. Well, Clint, your wonderful co-host has taught me that and it's disgusting. Yeah, I know. I saw the video. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. This way don't we and I don't belong in this club. I've got a study about junk food and why we binge eat

and who's more likely to binge eat, females or males? Because obviously we all know people talk about that females stress eat. They binge eat when they're emotional, right? That's what generally people say. That's what people say, yeah. Yeah. Well, you know, I'm a female and I can say it's true for me. I don't think it's a bad thing.

No, well, it can be if you do it a lot. But this study is actually done by Aussie researchers where they have got evidence as to why females are more likely than males to reach for junk food when they experience negative emotions. Okay, sure. What does the science say? Well, and this is the part where it's a little bit horrible and they've done testing on mice.

Okay. So this is in terms of mice, so not humans, but I mean, you know, obviously that's how all the tests are. How do they do these tests on mice? Because do mice have a bad day at work? Do mice get sad when their boyfriend breaks up with them? Well, and this is the horrible part where they have to obviously put mice in situations where they're stressed. Yeah.

You know? They've just set up a fake mice relationship and then they get one of the other male mice to cheat on that mouse. You imagine they're like, gotcha. It's for science. Now, here's some chocolate. What do you think? Anyway, so apparently they believe the female brain is more susceptible to emotional triggers that lead to overeating. Okay.

But this is the part that they found out they reckon because people always say, oh, it's your hormones. It's because of all your female hormones. Yeah, or your ladybugs. Yeah, it actually isn't. Oh. It's got nothing to do, well, this is what this study says, it's got nothing to do, yeah, with the female hormones

or the reproductive system. Okay. And they've done tests to prove that. They reckon it's actually just a part of your brain and how it's wired. Okay. And females are obviously wired differently. So we've reached the conclusion that I knew we would, that women are more likely to stress and emotionally eat.

Yes, but it's not because of our bloody estrogen. No, don't get emotional with me. I'm just saying. Where's the cake? Do we need to subject these poor mice to this? We already knew that. And it's not a criticism of women. It's just, we already knew this.

Just live with one. We didn't know why. We still don't really know why. We never will. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. This is an online shopping Christmas warning this break. An irate, nay, an incensed, nay, an angered Auckland mother is very upset because she has been Christmas shopping

for her children via an online store. And she typed in, she says she typed into the search list outdoor children's toys, because that's what she wants to get for her kids for Christmas. Get them outside, get them off the tablets, less screen time, more connection with nature. Yeah, get them a swing. She is disgusted to have been served up

inside the listings that came up under adult, no, outside children's toys. Yeah. Now, what's a safe way to say this word? It rhymes with Bildo. So this is a toy that only adults have. Yeah. It's definitely not an outdoor children's toy.

No, it's a toy for an adult. It's an indoor adult's toy. It's an indoor adult toy. In fact, almost the complete opposite of what she searched for. So she's angry and she says she wants the online store exposed for this, the Auckland mother has said. Here's my

issue. Heaven forbid. Here's my issue. She was shopping on the website Wish. Why is she buying presents for her children on Wish? If you don't know Wish No one ever subscribes to Wish They just end up in your news feed somehow Ads for the most bizarre things

Like face bras That's where my flatmate Alan bought that gimp mask Yeah, and isn't that where you bought the posture straightener thing? Yes, yes. People get served things for like... I've seen meth pipes on there. Meth pipes. They always try and put that in your feed.

And you're like, how has your algorithm decided that that's what I want to look at? So I'm not surprised that the website Wish has served her up an ad for an indoor adult's toy that rhymes with Bildo when she's searching for that. Because Wish is cooked. And you know what? It's the most cooked shopping website there is. I don't think she has a case. Because technically, that could be used as an outdoor children's toy.

How? Just differently. Use your imagination. It could be a pony. It could be a whatever. You could use it as a new throwing toy. Oh, it'd be a good toy for the pool. Yeah, be a pony. It could be a whatever. You could use it as a new throwing toy. Oh, it'd be a good toy for the pool. Yeah, it would sink.

Would it? I think it would sink. Pretty sure it would sink. That's fine. I hear what you're saying. Anything is a toy if you're creative enough. Just make sure if that's what you do, it's not multi-purpose. It is just for the pool. Just that. Getting free in Clint. the podcast. Just that.
