Hello everybody and welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast.
Bree threw a tiny rugby ball at me.
And you caught it.
I did catch it because I'm the rugby player in this show.
Catch!
Nah, producers didn't catch it.
And I still caught it.
And you caught it.
What have we got to cover off here?
Anybody got any admin that needs addressing?
Has anyone got anything for the podcast?
I've got one thing but I don't know if what you told me
is private or not, or we can bring it up.
Oh, Alan's
rash. Can we talk about
Alan's rash? Alan's
got a rash.
Are you on the mic, Al?
Am I working? Yeah. Can I preface it?
I had a sexual health check last week,
and I'm clean, bitches. No, no, no. I just think you have and i'm clean bitches oh i thought you guys were insinuating that i'm like bitch i'm clean we know you've had all the
tests and what did i say that i thought it was the vape yeah i thought it was from your vape
yeah so ellen is if there's if there's low use medium use use, and high use, Alan, where would you put yourself?
Oh, medium.
Depending on the day.
Alan has a touchscreen vape.
It tells you which direction you're walking in.
It's a good time.
What else can it do?
It's like the iPhone X of vapes.
Yeah, it is.
It's like a status symbol.
I'm just Googling here.
Can vaping cause a rash?
What's the status that it gives you
oh like everybody just goes that's a big boy vape and i'm like i know yeah you're high up in the
vaping community this is the first story that came up someone said woman claims allergic reaction to
vape cause painful rash but i've been on the fate for months now and i haven't had an issue until
now so i'm i'm blaming the poll in the air. Because I went to the doctor and I'm like,
hey, doll, I'm on the vape.
Is this giving me a rash?
He goes, definitely not.
So I'm like, yes, I can go home and vape again.
I'm so excited.
Have you taken an antihistamine?
Yeah, it doesn't work.
Well, then it's not the pollen.
Yeah, it's not the pollen.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Oh, damn it.
Do you want an outside opinion?
Ellie, what do you think the rash is from?
Mmm.
Mmm. I just... I don't know.
I've had a lot of rashes in my day.
I have.
I'm very equipped on the knowledge of rashes.
And I know when you get a rash, if it's not,
usually it's something that you've changed that you're putting into your body.
Yeah.
That's what happened to me.
I had a rash for four months and it was driving me freaking insane and i was like because i'm already
a rashy person like creams and like you know shower gels and what were you putting in you
i was putting in me um it was actually um a protein powder oh and i was drinking all these
protein shakes because i was you know goals um fitspo
and it was actually the way and protein powders pretty much i've had this conversation all the
way yeah no way but that's what it was there's no way in this fate no i was gonna tell you
are you on the protein shakes out god no no look at the flat on my arms right now definitely
are you willing to um in the in to, in the pursuit of good health,
put the vape down for a week?
He did for a bit.
A day.
So that's not going to really change anything.
Okay, so I will give it up after the Christmas party
and after the weekend of activities we have planned.
Oh, yeah.
That's fair.
But on Monday, I'll give it to you guys.
But you need to give it to us.
We will lock it up somewhere.
Yeah.
And I promise I don't have a backup vape anymore
because you smashed them all when you got lit.
Yeah, you had backup vapes.
Okay, for a week.
For a week.
I was just trying to help him.
Yeah.
For a week, we'll see and we'll test whether it is for once and for all.
Yeah, I'm fine.
I'm so happy with that.
Because I really want you to know.
Because what if...
Okay, here's the question though, Clint.
Yeah.
If it is the vape...
Oh, yeah.
You can't get back on it.
Fuck.
That's all right.
That's a podcast intro.
I swore.
Sorry, fam.
Podcast intro.
Yeah, okay.
So we've got a deal.
I'm going to save so much money if I can't vape.
Who wants to look after Ellen's mega vape for the week?
I will.
I was going to say, don't give it to Ellie
nah we'll leave it here
at work
we'll lock it up
somewhere
I miss it already
we'll follow this one up too
we've got one week
left after this
we'll give you an update
we'll check in with you
on Friday
here's today's podcast
everybody
featuring the right honourable Paula Bennett in there somewhere.
I hope. I'm recording this before she's been on.
So hopefully she does come on and she doesn't cancel on us before then.
But what am I going to do? I've got nothing I can do, mate. I'll be at home relaxing.
I don't know.
See you guys.
Kia ora, everybody, and welcome to the Brie and Clint show.
Hello everyone.
Fun show today.
We have the Right Honourable, Her Majesty, Your Royal Highness.
I don't know how to address the politicians.
Yeah, that was an awkward way of doing it.
Paula Bennett.
Yes, Paula Bennett is on the show.
Your enemy.
Yeah, my arch nemesis.
Hang on, I've completely forgotten why you wanted to fight her.
Oh, just for no good reason.
Oh, right.
For charity.
I wanted to do it for charity.
I thought Paula Bennett would be someone who people would like to see in the ring.
Yeah.
Giving it a go because she's, you know, super fit now.
Yeah.
And we're yet to have that fight.
Yeah, neither of you have followed through.
I still have hope.
I'm ready.
I don't even need to train.
I'm ready any time, any place.
She showed up here with gloves on and I just didn't see you hit her.
Well, I wasn't.
There was security here.
She's on the show with us after five o'clock.
I don't know if you've seen the news,
but she took a massive bag of weed into Parliament
Yeah
She is a gangster
And she's on the show at 4.20
Which is great
No, she's on at 5.20
Oh
Really, we should have thought about that
Yeah, should have put her on at 4.20
Nah, she's on at 5.20
Her Royal Highness
The
Paula Bennett
Just call her Paula Bennett
Paula Bennett will be on the show
Next though
Oh we've also got your chance
To win more Star Wars prizes
We gave a
Star Wars Lego Millennium Falcon
Away yesterday
Very cool
Very cool
We'll give you a chance
To win more Star Wars prizes
At five o'clock
But next
I've had a thought Bree
You know those moments
When you just
You feel like you see
The universe
I feel like you have these a lot
You just
You get a moment of clarity
where all the pieces line up.
Like that bit in The Matrix when Neo
stops seeing numbers and starts seeing
shapes. Is this the same thought
like your thought process that
Friends was going to come back for a reunion
reboot? Hey, I've got seven days
for that to still come true. I'm going to be
so happy when you're eating cat food
in seven days. No, this one is just a thought that I've had
and it's true.
It's just a fact.
But no one else has realised it,
if that makes sense.
All right.
Because I'll tell you what it is
and you'll go,
shit, Clint's so right.
Is this like the time I said,
I don't think baby pigeons exist
because have you ever seen one?
Just like that.
Just like that.
Yeah.
I can't wait.
I love these things.
I'm going to rock your world next.
Oh, we're going to see just how, we're going to have an insight into your brain.
I can't wait.
It's just a thing.
It's just a fact.
And I just happened to come up with it.
And I'll tell you what it is next.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
Bree and Clint, the podcast, ZM.
You know those moments of clarity where you have,
where you just seem to understand the way the universe works?
Not everybody has them, but every now and then some people do.
No, you did the other day when you said there's no such thing as baby pigeons.
Have you ever seen one?
No.
Same with baby seagulls.
Have you ever seen one?
What you did is you discovered a conspiracy.
That's what that was.
I believe I have discovered what I'm going to call a universal truth.
Okay.
Okay.
And I don't know the most poetic way to word this just yet,
but I don't think that's important.
I just want to get it out there.
Okay.
I can just picture what this is going to be.
So this morning I was playing with Tui, my daughter,
and she's four and a half months old.
And she had some boogies
up her nose
right
and with a baby
you've got to get those
out for them
okay
because the airways get blocked
and they get snuffly
and blah blah blah
so I had to go in
and pick her nose
I couldn't for the life of me
fit my finger
into her nostril
yeah you couldn't
no
it's very hard to get in there
it'd be little baby nostrils
exactly right
and she's like
get it out of my
get away get away anyway long process we managed to get in there. It'd be a little baby nostril. Exactly right. And she's like, get it out of my, get away, get away.
Anyway, long process, we managed to get it out.
And it was at that exact moment I realised that your nostril is the perfect size for your own finger.
No one else's nostril fits your finger the same way that your nostril does.
Stick it in a friend's nostril.
Tell me that doesn't feel weird.
Your nostril and your finger.
Of course it does.
It's like the nostril is the door of your house and your finger is the key.
And the two of them, they're meant to go together.
They fit into each other like nothing else.
Mine does fit pretty well.
Right?
Yeah, it does fit nice and snug.
Are you talking, obviously, not every finger's different.
Every finger's different, yeah.
Are you talking about your pointer finger?
I guess I am.
I guess I am, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, because the thumb barely goes.
That's too tight.
Yeah, the thumb's too tight.
It's stretching my nose whole.
Actually, I've got real big nostrils, so all of my fingers fit.
Yeah, but no one else's finger would fit in there quite like yours.
Now, I don't know if this is an evolutionary thing from picking your nose as a kid
and if it's like stretched your nose to be the right shape,
if your nose has got to know your finger.
Maybe.
Or if it's a genetic thing and within your code is how big your fingers will be
and that will determine how big your nostrils will be.
This is one of those things where it's like your foot size is the same length on your
forearm from your elbow to your wrist.
Yeah, that's true.
That's your foot size.
And your wingspan is your height.
Is your height.
Yeah.
What else?
What other ones do they have of those?
There's a few of them around, but I've never heard anyone talk about the fact that your
finger is the exact size as your nostril.
I don't know if that's a scientific one.
Well, only because I'm not a scientist.
Only because I'm not a scientist.
Right, so if you became a scientist...
Well, let's test it.
Let's put it to a panel.
So you've stuck a finger in there and you agree?
Yeah.
Yeah, quick round the room.
Ben, how's your nostril situation going?
Feels pretty good.
Pretty good?
She fits.
Yeah.
Ellie, how's your nostril?
Quite cosy, actually.
Exactly right. Yeah. Exactly right. Yeah. Ellie, how's your nostril? Quite cosy, actually. Exactly right.
Yeah.
Exactly right.
So with that, I think...
Do you want me to show you one more thing on this, though?
I might be the exception to the rule
because I actually don't have much cartilage in my nose.
Yeah.
And I can do this.
Oh, my God, Bree.
Oh, what's wrong with you?
What was that?
Bree just straightened out her entire nose.
Isn't it weird?
Oh, yuck.
Oh, you just blew my mind to the wrong...
Right, look around you.
Was it that bad?
Look around you at the traffic lights, everybody,
and see if the guy next to you has his finger in his nose.
Oh my God, I hope they do.
If he does, you know two things.
One, that he listens to ZM, and two, that person has just had his mind in his nose. Oh my God, I hope they do. If he does, you know two things. One, that he listens to ZM
and two, that person has just had his mind blown as well.
I'm doing something at the moment
where I'm on a Christmas movie schedule.
Oh yeah?
And I'm watching all my favourite Christmas movies
in the lead up to Christmas.
Yeah, you're on your Christmas cycle.
Yes.
Yeah, I'm on the Christmas cycle.
Have you watched Love Actually yet?
No, that's one of the ultimates.
Is that Christmas Eve?
Yeah, you leave that to Christmas Eve.
Have you watched Griswold Family Christmas yet?
No, that's the other big one for me.
Have you watched Die Hard yet?
No, they're all at the back end of the cycle.
Yeah.
But last night I wanted to kick it off with one of my all-time favourites,
Home Alone.
Why are you starting your Christmas movie watching on the fifth day of December?
Because there's a lot to watch.
Yeah, I know, but wouldn't you start on the first?
Sorry, I'm semantics.
Don't worry about it.
Well, I've been busy for the first couple of days or whatever.
But Home Alone, we've all seen it. Well, hopefully.
I think it's one of the top five christmas movies of all time
absolutely it was an instant classic it was huge and i saw an article online today where netflix
are doing this series uh that's called the movies that made us yeah and it's a four-part series where
they interview like directors and people behind the scenes about iconic films. And Home Alone is one of the films.
And I found some of the stuff that they released really interesting
just because I'm a big fan of the film.
But let me, you tell me if you think some of this stuff is interesting.
So they were talking about, do you know how old the movie is?
30?
It's 30 years this year.
Wow.
Yeah, 30 years old.
And they were talking about how much John Candy,
which I mean at the time he was one of the big stars.
Yeah.
Like if you don't know who John Candy is, he was the star of Uncle Buck.
He was the coach in Cool Runnings.
Yeah.
He's dead now, eh?
He is dead.
Yeah, RIP.
But he did a cameo in this movie.
And the only reason he was in Home Alone,
he's the guy that ends up getting the mum into the truck
with all of his bandmates and they drive her back to Chicago.
Yeah.
Anyway, he talked about and released how much he was paid
for that cameo in the film.
Whilst being the biggest star in Hollywood at the time.
Exactly.
So at the time, he was one of the biggest stars, right? And he
said that apparently he had one day free in his schedule.
So every piece in that movie they filmed in 23 hours.
Yeah, and how much did he get paid? $414. Is that it?
He did it as a favour to one of the directors. And did he
get more money later on when the movie was a huge
success? I don't know. I'm not sure.
But yeah, he was really good friends
with one of the studio creatives.
That's a good get. Very good get.
Anyway, they also... I reckon you could pay
Macaulay Culkinbug a role too because he wasn't
even famous back then. Yeah, well, I'd like to know how much
he got paid, which I can look into
that. More for the second one, I'd say. Probably
because the first one was so big.
What do you think the house that they filmed, obviously, all of the Macalester.
Yeah, the Macalester mansion.
Yeah.
Do you, where do you think that house was?
Because it was meant to be in Chicago.
It would be in Beverly Hills, wouldn't it?
No, it was in Chicago.
Oh, okay.
Do you think they filmed all of the stuff, like the inside scenes in that house? No, they never do? No, it was in Chicago. Oh, okay. Do you think they filmed all of the stuff,
like the inside scenes in that house? No, they never do. No, they didn't. No, it's done on a
soundstage and it's just an establishing shot outside. Yeah, so they filmed all the establishing
shots obviously with a real house and then they actually built the inside of a house at one of
the school gyms that was close to the house. Oh, okay. So they had their big production office at one of the schools
and they decided they ended up building all of these sets.
One was in the pool, one was in like the gym,
like in a basketball gym.
And then they also were talking about the two bandits,
the wet bandits.
The bad guys.
The bad guys.
They're some of the most iconic characters on that movie.
Yeah.
So obviously there's Joe Pesci who is the most iconic characters on that movie. Yeah. So obviously there's Joe Pesci, who is the bald guy.
Yeah.
The shorter one.
Yeah.
Marv.
So that's Marv.
Yeah.
And then I think the other one was Harry.
The taller one.
The taller one.
The real gangly looking one.
Yeah.
So that guy there, originally he was signed on to do the film
and they said it would be six weeks of work.
Six weeks of work and you'd be done.
And then I think they'd filmed about five weeks and they said,
hey, look, it's actually looking more like eight weeks.
And he said, cool, do I get paid some more?
And they said no.
And he walked off the set.
He said, sorry, I don't want to do this anymore.
So what did they do?
So they ended up hiring
this other guy his name was that's a great question his name was daniel as well they both
named daniel um anyway yeah so his name was daniel roebuck he was a character on lost and he filmed
for about three weeks and then joe pesci the other guy was like no not feeling it you need to get the
other guy back right and then so they rehired the other guy, was like, no, not feeling it. You need to get the other guy back. Right.
And then so they rehired the other guy to come back on.
He rethought it and he said it's been probably obviously the best decision.
Yeah, because he's in Home Alone.
Yeah, and he was in number two and made a heap of money.
Right.
Crazy, eh?
Yeah.
No one ever talks about Home Alone 3.
And you can probably remove that from your...
Is there Home Alone 4?
I feel like there was, but that one's even been...
There's that theory that we talked about too.
There's a new Home Alone being written.
There's a petition online to cast Macaulay Culkin as the kid.
I love that idea.
But Macaulay Culkin now is like a 37-year-old
and no one mentions it.
So in the movie, they just treat him like a kid
and no one mentions that he's actually an adult man now.
It'd be so good.
And who can forget the iconic line?
Or Brie's take on it, at least.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM from iHeartRadio.
This is...
The Latest, live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
And this is actually breaking latest news, isn't it?
Dean McCarthy, good afternoon.
Good afternoon, guys.
This is a story that has truly shocked and surprised me today.
Just about an hour ago, Justin Timberlake went on social media,
Instagram, to address those photos that were taken of he
and his co-star of Palmer.
You might remember, you know, he had his, I think her hand was on his knee
and it looked like they were holding hands in another photo.
He has actually come out and shared the truth about that on Instagram,
which has blown my mind because a lot of celebrities usually just let,
you know, gossip stuff fall and fly by the, you know, wayside.
But he has actually, look, he said that there was a lapse of judgment.
I've actually got it here, Dean.
I've got the post here.
It says, he said, I stay away from gossip as much as I can,
but for my family, I feel it is important to address recent rumours
that are hurting the people I love.
A few weeks ago, I displayed a strong lapse in judgment,
but let me be clear, nothing happened between me and my co-star.
I drank way too much that night and I regret my behaviour.
I should have known better.
This is not the example I want to set for my son
and I apologise to my amazing wife and family
for putting them through this such an embarrassing situation.
This is really interesting because one,
you don't expect it from Justin Timberlake.
Like we've talked about, he's a wholesome family dude.
It's very private, that stuff for him.
But also, let's remember that Justin Timberlake wrote 10 years worth of songs
about Britney Spears cheating on him.
He was, Cry Me a River, that entire...
His whole career.
Yeah, what goes around comes around, you know?
And now, and so I'm not saying that he has cheated,
but if he feels the need to comment on it,
he's clearly done something, right, Dean?
Yeah, for sure, for sure.
It's very rare that celebrities even address stuff like this.
Normally they just leave it be, you know what I mean,
and just kind of go about their wayside because there was just a few photos
of them holding hands underneath the table.
But I feel like his family were like, you need to own this
and you need to really take responsibility, which he's done.
Obviously.
Very shocking.
A few too many lemonades and he had a bit of a lapse in judgment.
That post where he has written all of this is on Justin Timberlake's
Instagram story.
There's a bit more in it.
You can go and read the whole thing.
Yeah, there's a little bit more to it.
Yeah, it's on his Instagram page right now.
That is breaking entertainment news with our Hollywood correspondent,
Dean McCarthy, live from Los Angeles. but yeah, it's on his Instagram page right now. That is breaking entertainment news with our Hollywood correspondent,
Dean McCarthy, live from Los Angeles,
brought to you by Amplify Kombucha, Taste Amplified.
Zed-In Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Our producers have been putting together a bit of a scrapbook of the year.
It's almost over.
We're all in that period of the year where if you can be in the departure lounge,
you're definitely like... Yeah, you're there.
And we have, I guess, the joy that a lot of our
moments this year have been documented yeah in audio yeah exactly right which is fun and also
if our boss accuses us of not doing any work we just play them this and we go oh but what about
when we did that one time you know ben made the thing with it when we when we went and we did the
yeah and we yeah met the person yeah anyway each of the events is a surprise to us.
So hopefully this one, today's edition of the 2019 scrapbook,
makes us look like hard workers.
Ah, once upon a time, earlier this year,
previous to now, Brie and Clint's 2019 scrapbook.
Page 98.
Earlier this year, Brie made this very bold statement live on air.
I will fight Paula Bennett in the Octagon for a charity.
Paula Bennett, if you're listening,
does she want to put the new rig to the test?
Paula, if you're listening, we can raise some money.
Come on, Octagon, do me.
Just so we're clear.
I'm being serious.
If Paula Bennett comes back and says she wants to fight you,
you'll fight Paula Bennett.
Any time, any place, Paula Bennett.
But Bree soon realised she needs to watch what she says on the radio.
We now look back at the following day on June 13th
when Paula Bennett intruded.
Whoa, what's going on?
Whoa, what's going on?
It sounds like there's an intruder about to enter the studio for something.
I mean, you've been talking smack for the last week about politician Paula Bennett.
I can't believe Paula Bennett is just watching.
Hey, you've been dissing me, girl.
I regret all those comments.
I just didn't think you'd actually come.
And you're here.
I am right here.
You look fit.
Paula Bennett, you've shown up in boxing gloves.
Do you want to fight Bree right now?
Don't give us a no, but can you give us an old think on it?
Could we do something that's non-violent?
Tune in tomorrow for another page of Brian Clint's 2019 scrapbook.
That was excellent.
And it's such a coincidence because Paula Bennett herself is joining us after 5 o'clock today.
Is that purely coincidental that that's today's scrapbook and then she's coming on the show today?
No, that's not at all.
I made that yesterday and then today we decided we need to get her on the phone.
So it's coincidental.
Do you understand what coincidental means?
Yeah, it's two things and they happen at the same time.
By coincidence.
Yeah, there you go.
We should probably ask her about that fight.
About the fight?
Yeah.
Yeah, we'll put it on the agenda.
Put her on blast.
Call her out.
Call again. Hey, Paula, catch these hands. We're on blast. Call her out. Again.
Hey, Paula, catch these hands.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I did have some aviation news for you guys this afternoon.
And this is an interesting story that is coming out of Miami.
Well, it was a flight headed to Miami.
And it was about a woman who was in economy and
she actually was sitting in economy and she called one of the flight attendants over and
she said, hey, I was just wondering if there was any chance of a seat upgrade, a bigger
seat.
Yeah.
It's quite small.
It's a bit tight here for me.
Yeah.
And they said, no, unfortunately there's not. There's
no seat upgrades. No. And anyway, lo and behold it, about an hour later, she calls the flight
attendant back over. She says, I'm feeling violently ill. I'm feeling really sick. I'm feeling really sick I'm short of breath I need
I just need to get out of this seat
I was going to say let me guess
the cure to what ails her
was a better seat
is that what she
was insinuating?
Anyway
they were forced to make a sudden return
just one hour after takeoff
because the passenger claimed she was in need of medical assistance.
Oh, that wouldn't have been the outcome I imagined the passenger wanted.
I don't think it was.
According to police, the woman asked for a seat upgrade
and shortly after her request, she was rejected by cabin crew.
She became ill.
That's when the plane turned
around and when
they landed, they said
you now have to get off the plane
so we can help you.
She came clean and said that she was faking
it. Why would you come clean at that
stage? You die
with the lie. Yeah.
Do what you need to do. Evacuate the
bowels or something like that.
Follow through.
God.
With anything that makes them think that you were sick.
Because I imagine if you force a flight to land and you're lying.
Can you imagine?
You'd be arrested.
She was.
Oh, right.
Yeah, she was transferred to a facility after the flight had landed.
Right.
Right.
Okay.
Well, here's a lesson for you, I guess.
Just, if you fake it.
Just use your ear points.
What?
Just use your ear points and pay for the upgrade.
Seriously.
Or just be better at faking the illness.
Yeah, right.
Die with the lie.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
There's like 25, 26 days of the entire decade left.
That's terrifying.
Yeah, a new decade only comes around once every 10 years, if you're lucky. That's the saying decade left. That's terrifying. Yeah, a new decade only comes around once every 10 years,
if you're lucky.
That's the saying.
Yeah.
That is the old saying.
Yeah, and this year we get one.
So what you're going to be bombarded with,
and you've already been bombarded with by us,
is lists of the decade.
It's fun.
We've talked about album of the decade.
We've talked about movie of the decade.
I like it because it makes you reflect on the last 10 years
and go, oh my God, I love that.
Yeah.
What I have for you today is data released by Spotify
as to who are the most streamed artists of the decades.
Because you've got to remember,
this is the first decade where album sales won't matter.
And it's moved to streaming.
It's moved to streaming.
Up until 2010s, it was all about album sales.
Yep.
Because that's the only way you could listen to them.
Now, I don't know who would buy an album.
Like, I don't know who would.
Because it's just available to you on Spotify.
People have started buying records again.
Yeah, exactly right.
But I don't think enough to influence the charts.
So what I have for you are the most streamed artists of the 2010.
The most streamed Kiwi artist, we'll start with that.
Lorde.
No, 660.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Sorry, most streamed by Kiwis.
That's what it is.
Lorde's probably got more streams than 660.
Like worldwide, yeah.
Yeah, but New Zealanders have streamed more 660 than Lorde.
Yes.
Okay, then we go global.
So the fifth most streamed artist of the decade is Eminem.
He's going to be on the list forever.
Yeah, because, I mean, he's done a little bit, but not.
This decade.
This decade, but this wasn't.
Couple of albums.
This wasn't really his decade, though.
The Monster was that Rihanna stuff.
That was huge, but.
Fourth, Ariana Grande.
Yeah, that doesnihanna stuff. That was huge. Fourth, Ariana Grande. Yeah.
That doesn't surprise me.
She's the Mariah Carey of the 2010s.
Yep.
Third most streamed artist of the decade.
This is really interesting.
It's Post Malone.
He's had, what, in the last three years?
Three years.
So he's done it all in three or four years.
But I guess he's had a glow up and the come up in the year of the stream.
Yeah, I get it.
Like in the years of the stream.
That's a good way to look at it.
You know?
Second most streamed artist.
So we're into the business end.
Second most streamed artist of the 2010s was...
Ed Sheeran.
I would have thought he would have been number one.
Me too.
He's had a massive decade.
Who do we think is the most streamed artist of the decade?
If Ed Sheeran is the second most streamed,
who's the most streamed artist of the decade?
Is it Drake?
You reckon it could be Drake?
Producer Ellie, who do you think it could be?
I don't think it should be Drake, but I feel like it's going to be Drake.
Is it? It could be him.
Let's remember, Taylor Swift has not been mentioned in this.
Oh, yeah, she's had a huge decade.
Katy Perry has not been mentioned in this.
Justin Bieber has not been mentioned in this.
Yeah.
It's going to be Drake, isn't it?
I'm going to say it's Drake.
The most streamed artist of the decade, you never know,
it could be anyone, is Drake. The most streamed artist of the decade. You never know. You never know. It could be anyone.
It's Drake.
Ali's favourite artist.
How can you not like him if he's the most streamed?
Because everyone's just sheep.
Everyone's just following each other.
It's not.
He's not cool.
Do you want to know how much they're following each other?
Drake has had 28 billion streams on Spotify.
I've been onto a stream calculator which tells you how much that equates to in a dollar value.
So just from his streams alone, not from his album sales, if there are any,
not from his concert performances, not from his merch, anything like that.
Just from the streams.
And just from Spotify, from that platform only, $112 million. Just for his streams. And just from Spotify from that platform only $112 million
just for
his streams. Love that.
So he's the most streamed
artist. The most streamed song
of the decade.
I know when... No, no, no.
It's this one
from Ed Sheeran.
I'm in love with the shapeeran. This has had 2.3 billion streams.
The most streamed song of the decade.
Which in itself has generated Ed Sheeran $9.2 million.
Just the streams on this one song.
Which also made me go, Brie, you and I are streaming artists now.
The Hot Mess Express debuted.
We had Send It.
In this decade.
So we're on this list somewhere.
Yeah, where do we come in on the most streamed songs of the decade?
I won't say last, but down there.
Send It, our song, which this is not to be scoffed at,
has had 79,000 streams.
That's actually not bad.
So I've done the stream calculator.
It's $316.
All right, where is it?
Seriously, we've got a Christmas party this weekend.
I'd be happy with that.
Maybe we've got to split that with Kings too.
Oh, that's right.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I love when I get out to the office here at ZM
and some of the girls and the guys out there give me content
because sometimes, you know.
Have you been out in the content mine?
Yeah, I've been out there just, you know, rattling people's brains,
saying what have you got for me for content.
Shaking the tree, what content falls down.
Nah, it was actually just brought up in a conversation I was having
with one of the girls who works out there, Sarah,
and she was telling me, she's like, oh, guess what?
And I was like, what?
She's like, oh, I got a new flat.
I was like, oh, that's exciting.
Like, are you moving in before Christmas?
And she goes, yeah, we're moving in just before Christmas.
She's like, I'm moving in with, it's me and three other guys.
Okay.
And I was like, ooh, okay.
Any more romantic acquaintances in there?
No, no romantic
ones but she said they're all really
attractive. So I was like
flat party at yours.
So it's her and three really
attractive guys. Yeah, so her and three
really attractive dudes. Anyway,
she was saying to me, she's like, oh, you know.
It's a recipe for disaster by the way.
But no, she'll be fine.
Great for all of her friends. Yep, totally. Because apparently everyone is single in the flat. It's going to for disaster, by the way. But no, she'll be fine. Great for all of her friends.
Yep, totally.
Because apparently everyone is single in the flat.
It's going to be so much fun.
It'll be awesome.
Great time.
And she said, you know, there's the chat that I need to have with everyone
because obviously there's four bedrooms and there's two bathrooms.
So there's the main bathroom and then one of the bedrooms has an en suite.
Right.
And she kind of was saying to me, she was like, oh, you know,
I kind of want the en suite because I'm the only girl and, you know,
then they don't have to worry about leaving the toilet seat up.
Yes.
So that's, you know, that was a conversation.
And then I said, oh, but, you know, what's the situation?
Is it going to be, you know, the boy's going to give you the bedroom with the ensuite?
And she was like, oh, I think it's going to be more like who is willing to pay the most for the bedroom with the ensuite.
Oh, that's kind of fair, I guess.
I mean, if you're looking at it black and white, if it's three dudes and one girl, you go, ladies first, you have the ensuite.
But I understand that in a flatting situation, it's everybody for themselves.
Well, she said to me she's willing to pay more for the bedroom with the ensuite.
How much more?
I think she said she was willing to pay $20 a week more.
Okay.
Yeah.
Which is, you know, not a bad deal.
And she said it's not really a master bedroom and it's kind of a very tiny en suite,
but it'd be her obviously little space where she can do girl things in.
Do girl things?
Yeah.
You don't know what we do in the bathroom?
No, I don't.
How do you think all the hair gets on the ground?
Yeah, I don't want to know either.
Yeah, exactly.
And then I was talking to you about it.
What do you think should happen?
I believe that as a gesture of goodwill the boys should give her
the ensuite room and she pays a little bit more no at no extra cost i had no extra because i'll
tell you what would you be happy with that though if you were one of the boys if i was being if i
was being honest about it i'd be fine with it boys don't spend a lot of time in the bathroom i know
i'm stereotyping and that's not true for all boys,
but generally, boys don't spend that much time in the bathroom.
We don't set up shop in the bathroom.
We have our corner of the shower where we keep our Radox
or our Lynx Africa shower gel.
Yeah, exactly right.
And that's it.
We have our shampoo, which is usually a two-in-one anyway.
It's a two-in-one, yeah.
Sometimes we have a three-in-one. Doubles as a two-in-one, yeah. Sometimes we have a three-in-one.
Doubles as a face wash.
Great.
Triples as a face wash.
We have a toothbrush and some toothpaste.
You should see.
Three of you can do that.
Three of you can do that in one bathroom.
You should see the products I have in my bathroom,
and I'm just one female.
We have a lot of stuff going on.
It's more beneficial for them to give her the en suite room too
because it'll free the bathroom
space up more. You guys will be in and out.
It's like Narnia. Women
go in there and get lost. That's true because she
might be in there for an hour
every morning maybe. Who knows?
Anyway, we thought
we could use our radio show
to put it to the test of what people
think should happen. Sure.
There is one, let's not reveal too much,
there is one more deciding factor involved in this.
There is, which we will bring to the table.
Hold that out.
Let's get some honest feedback now.
We do have a bit more info on it, which could change your mind.
But if you want to call through now and have a say,
0800 DIAL ZM, we need a panel.
Who should get the en suite?
Flat of three boys and one girl.
No couples.
No couples.
Who gets the en suite in the bedroom?
0800 dial ZM.
ZM, Spree and Clint.
The podcast.
We're asking you to help us with a bit of a flat debate this afternoon.
Yeah, flat dilemma.
One of the girls from the office here, Sarah, great.
She's got a new flat.
She's gone into a flat
with three other guys. They move in in
a couple of weeks. Yeah. But there's
a bit of a conversation
that needs to happen around the rooms
because there's two bathrooms in the flat.
One room has an en suite
and one is a main bathroom.
Who out of the three
boys and her gets the en suite?
I think I complicated a bit because I said she should get the en suite for free.
No, that's...
She's willing to pay extra.
She's willing to pay extra, but the boys are able to pay more.
So if it's a bidding war, she won't get it.
Exactly.
Okay, let's find out who rightfully should get the en suite.
Shanda is here.
Hi, Shanda.
Hi, Shanda.
Hi, hi.
Yeah, look, I think definitely she should be having this without having to pay
because whether she likes it or not,
I'm guessing she's going to be doing at least $20 a week,
free housekeeping, just to keep her happy, not the boys.
Whoa, Shanda. The real talk. Okay, so you're assuming here that the boys she's moving in with
are slovenly males who won't clean up after themselves?
No.
I'm just assuming that they're going to have lots going on
and she's probably going to have nice things that she wants to look good.
She might do a bit more vacuuming is what Shanda
is saying.
Shanda, I think you're 100% right.
I don't disagree with you.
No, give it to her.
It's a good point, Shanda.
She shouldn't be given the ensuite on
the expectation that she does more
housework.
That's where she can't use that. She can't come out and go, well, I'm going to clean more because if she says that, they'd No, no, no, no. So that's where she can't use that.
She can't argue that.
She can't come out and go, well, I'm going to clean more.
Because if she says that, they'd go, oh, yeah, sweet.
If you're our cleaner, then you get the en suite.
That's a good deal.
And then she goes, no, no, no, no, that's not what I meant.
That's a bad deal.
Well, here's a little idea for her then.
Yeah.
She should, I don't know if this would work,
but she should just like take some photos.
If she doesn't get the en, if she doesn't pay to have the ensuite and someone else gets it,
there should just be some arrangement.
I don't quite know how that might work,
but she keeps a little photographic record of before and after.
You're really invested in this, aren't you, Shanda?
Shanda's like, go CSI on it.
Every time you clean up a stain.
I'm going to keep a log book.
Log that shit.
I'm going to log it in my log book.
Shanda says she gets the en suite.
Kaylee's here.
G'day, Kaylee.
Hi, Kaylee.
Hi.
What are your thoughts?
Who gets the en suite?
I think the girl should, as us girls have a lot more products
and a lot more clothes than males.
Yeah, well, you can...
Also, if, like, the girl has a lot of girls
and it's like a girls' night,
they need the space to get ready.
Oh, would block up that main bathroom.
Trust me.
It would be a nightmare for those two other boys
that would end up sharing the bathroom with her.
I love the idea of you...
Or you guys are going for a girls' night out
and you spend the whole time in the en suite bathroom.
Seriously, we spend a lot of time in the en-suite bathroom? They would.
Seriously, we spend a lot of time in the bathroom.
You would?
Okay, that's two votes, both from females, saying that the female should get the en-suite.
Let's go to another female.
Tanya's here.
Kia ora, Tanya.
Hi, Tanya.
How are you?
How are you?
Good, mate.
What are your thoughts on the en-suite debacle?
I'm with her getting the bathroom.
My oldest daughter's just moved out of home
about four weeks ago and she's actually in the same
situation in the sense
that she's got the bedroom
with the en suite but she pays $20
more a week than the boys
I think $20 is what we're landing on
I think that's fine
Also can you imagine being the one guy who muscles
Sarah out of the en suite and goes no I need
that. He better be the best groomed, most well-kept,
constantly fresh-smelling man you've ever seen in your life.
Otherwise, what are you using that en suite for?
Like, what are you even doing with her?
Yeah, what do guys do with her?
The bonus she's got is she's also got a slightly small,
small ass, but she's got a walking wardrobe too.
Oh, see, this one doesn't, I don't think.
Okay, oh God, that's not on the cards.
One more.
Go to Matt.
Should we get a male's input?
A guy's perspective, yeah.
Matt, welcome to the Brian Clint Show.
G'day, team.
How are we?
Good, mate.
We want a male perspective on this.
What are your thoughts?
Who gets the en suite?
Shandon, absolutely just stereotyping males thinking we don't clean in the household.
Yeah, let that one go through to the keeper.
Yeah, Shandon really gave it to you guys.
And just give us your feelings about it.
Who in this situation, three boys, one girl, four bedrooms, one with an en suite, no couples,
who gets the en suite?
Not to Sarah.
And personally, because I'm the one moving in with Sarah,
I was just being a good flatmate and listening on the wonderful
good-end drive-by show.
Thank you.
Appreciate that, Matt.
But you're one of the guys that's moving into the flat.
Yeah.
When I was driving home, I thought it sounded a bit familiar,
the situation.
And I asked Sarah, and it turns out it's our flat.
Do you want the en suite, Matt?
Are you here to lay claim to the en suite?
Is that you who wants the en suite?
No, hey, I'm just a bridge.
You know, I bridge the team together.
I'm helping everyone out here.
But if Sarah is the highest bidder, then hey, all for it.
Okay, yeah.
Okay, so you think it should be a bidding war.
She doesn't have the ability to enter a bidding war with you guys, she said.
But how about this mitigating factor that we didn't bring up?
Yes, we do need to bring up this piece of information with you, Matt. Sarah found the flat that you guys, she said. But how about this mitigating factor that we didn't bring up? Yes, we do need to bring up this piece of information
with you, Matt. Sarah found
the flat that you guys are moving into.
Is that true?
Oh, team effort. Team effort, I'd say.
Who bought the flat
to everyone else's attention, this
particular flat?
Oh,
Sarah.
Oh!
Matt, we're going to leave this one with you.
And in the interest of you having a happy Christmas and a safe new year,
we strongly recommend you give Sarah the en suite.
It's a good idea, I think.
We'll decide over a cheeky Friday night after a couple of discussions.
It's going to be a bidding war.
Well, I'll leave you
with this one last text
that someone has sent through.
Sarah should get the en suite
because periods.
Brie and Clint,
the podcast.
ZM.
Once upon a time,
there was a girl.
She was smart,
debatable,
talented,
athletic.
Not really.
Picking a movie based on just the plot line?
That she can do.
Brie and Clint's What The Plot.
This is our movie guessing game where you take Brie on to win free mobile fuel.
They don't want to score us for the year, but you're miles ahead.
Miles and miles and miles ahead.
We also figured out what was the opposite of the underdog, the top dog.
Top dog, yeah, that was good.
Someone texted through and they said it comes from the forestry industry
when they used to saw logs in the pits and the underdog got covered in sawdust.
Oh, right.
Interesting.
Jenna's here.
G'day, Jenna.
Hey, guys.
How you doing? Good. Really good. Do you know your movies? Oh, not. Interesting. Jenna's here. G'day, Jenna. Hey, guys. How you doing?
Good.
Really good.
Do you know your movies?
Oh, not too bad.
Have you ever played this game before, Jenna?
No, I haven't.
That's exciting.
Great.
Okay, today's theme is movie sequels.
Oh, yuck.
So not the original.
None of these movies will be the original.
They'll all be sequels.
So we've probably only seen them once before, Jenna,
because most of them are average.
Okay, well, that's a bad attitude.
Probably.
Jenna agrees.
Your buzzer is your name.
Both of you, your buzzers are your names.
Okay.
Best of three.
Good luck to everybody playing.
Movie number one.
When our heroes return home from their honeymoon,
the bride's parents,
who just happen to be the king
and queen, invite them
to visit the kingdom. Brie.
Brie. Shrek 2.
Shrek 2?
That's absolutely correct.
Yes, I watched it recently!
You watched Shrek 2 recently? I don't know
why, but I did.
Gosh, yeah, that's going back a few years, isn't it?
Isn't it? Alright, Jenna. It's a great film
actually for a sequel. Hopefully this next one
is more up your alley. Okay, fingers
crossed. After Sid
pilfers something... Brie.
Ice Age 2. Ice Age
2 is incorrect.
Jenna,
would you like a free guess?
Ice Age 3. Ice Age 3 is absolutely
correct.
What?
Oh, you're welcome, Jenna.
I helped you a little bit on that one.
Good work picking up on what I was putting down there, Jenna.
That was well done.
You're right.
We're at tie break, everybody.
And this is for the win.
Okay.
The gang embark on a road trip with Bonnie and a new toy named Forky.
Brie.
Brie.
Toy Story 4.
Toy Story 4.
Four.
You want to lock it in?
Lock it in.
Toy Story 4.
I didn't stutter.
Lock it in.
You sure you don't want to say?
Lock it in.
Toy Story 4. Toy Story 4.
Toy Story 4?
100% you're not swaying me.
Damn it.
Yes!
Well done, Brie.
Well done.
Thanks, Jenna.
She's lovely.
Let's give her the fuel.
She is lovely.
Why did you have to roast her so hard?
Sorry, I just had to win, Jenna.
But you still get the fuel.
Happy Christmas.
Merry Christmas, Jenna.
Thanks, guys.
Thanks for playing.
Oh, you cut her off.
The fuel is thanks to our friends at Mobile.
Thank you very much.
Appreciate that, team.
And that's What's the Plot.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Uber, Uber, Uber, Uber.
It has taken over the world recently.
It's become the most easy way to get around
and now the easiest way to get your food as well, right?
Well, when you thought, you know, uber came out and i thought to myself oh can these people give us anything better than
this and they did they topped it with uber eats yeah we're still waiting on our uber copters
but um word is they're not too far away yeah we've heard that um i have some information here
about uber in new zealand in. The stats. Yeah, because it's
in a lot of places around the country
now. For a long time it was just Auckland and Wellington
but she's fairly all over the place
now. Which is awesome for everyone.
Yeah, let's see if you and your town
feature in this list for 2019.
The best Uber drivers
in the country. So these are the
people who are obviously getting five stars.
Highest ratings, yes.
The highest you can get.
They're getting a rating of,
the highest rating was an average of 4.85 stars.
Where do those drivers live?
I'm going to say Wellington.
Wellington is incorrect.
Best Uber drivers in New Zealand
and Australia are in Auckland.
Really?
There you go.
Actually, now that I think about it,
I always get good ones. Yeah, and they've got to deal Really? There you go. Actually, now that I think about it, I always get good ones.
Yeah, and they've got to deal with such horrific traffic conditions.
They deserve a medal.
Okay.
Who do you think the most generous Uber passengers are?
So that means you in the back, now you can tip.
It comes up at the end and it says,
do you want to give a tip to your Uber driver?
Yeah, have you?
I gave my Uber Eats driver a tip. I gave my Uber Eats driver a tip.
Last week.
Uber Eats driver.
I don't generally tip.
No, I don't.
It's not a very Kiwi thing to do.
I tip sometimes.
If I have a really good ride.
It's not in our DNA.
Oh, mate.
Hey, producers, can you see that?
That's what it looks like when Clinton's trying to dig himself out of a hole.
See that?
I gave a tip to my Uber Eats driver last week, okay?
Oh, what do you want, a medal?
Where do the...
Okay, okay, well, where do you think the people who give the tips live in New Zealand?
Auckland.
Auckland is incorrect.
No.
Wellington.
No, Wellington's incorrect.
In the cargo.
It's Christchurch.
Is it?
Christchurch is the most generous...
Ben's giving himself a standing ovation as someone from Christchurch.
Well done, mate.
Hey, Ben, since you're from Christchurch, have you ever given a tip?
Once.
So the stats are wrong.
Not that great.
In the last 12 months, 43 different riders gave the maximum tip possible of $50 in Christchurch.
Whoa!
$50!
I didn't even know you could tip that much.
It's the most you can tip.
That's so lovely.
That's really nice.
You didn't know because you're not giving tips either.
I am giving tips, thank you, but not $50.
You're like, make sure you floss.
And if you want a nice car incense thing, get the Oikoya one.
Okay, the biggest, this is what I like,
the biggest order in New Zealand on Uber Eats.
Oh, this is the stuff I want to know.
This is the biggest.
It doesn't tell us where it's from, unfortunately.
But the biggest single order in New Zealand for 2019.
Someone ordered from Uber Eats $1,163 worth of sushi from Sushi Time.
God, that's a big party.
Can you imagine working in that St. Pierre's?
Oh, no, it's a big party Can you imagine working in that St. Pierre's Can you imagine working in that sushi shop In a $1,163 order comes in
It would have been absolute havoc
It would be all hands on deck
Could we do that one time?
Can we order $1,000 worth of something?
No we can
Do you know if we have the right idea?
Bree and I actually caught up with the Uber people last week
And they said if we've got the right idea, they'll give us some credit.
Yes.
Can we have that idea tomorrow around lunchtime?
Yeah, right.
Or should we do it when we're at the Christmas party tomorrow night
and we can be heroes?
Yeah, just for one day.
Just for one day.
Okay, I've got a couple more stats.
Okay, a couple more Uber stats for 2019 in New Zealand.
The most late night Uber users.
Yes.
Hamilton.
Hamilton is ordering the most Ubers.
Ellie's lived in Hamilton.
Yeah.
I was there recently.
It makes sense.
They go out really late at night.
Hamilton orders the most Ubers between 2 and 5 a.m.
Wow.
What are people in Hamilton doing?
A good bloody time.
That's what they're doing.
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure the bars close at 3.
No.
Don't they?
They have to, don't they?
Outback.
When we were at Outback, it only started jumping at like 11.30.
Yeah, that's true.
Also, it might be your second Uber at 5 a.m.
You might be going from someone's house back to your house.
And there's a bakery there.
People always go to the bakery and eat lots.
That'll be it.
I love a good bakery.
Got to get through this.
Got to get through this.
We're going to talk to Paula Bennett soon, so just got to get through this.
The final one, there's data here released from Uber
on the most creamy pastas ordered in 2019.
This is, yep, this is where I'm at.
So one woman who lives in Ponsonby, Auckland.
Oh, shut up.
Ordered 112 creamy fettuccines in the last 12 months.
All on a Saturday and Sunday morning.
I had people over.
The Uber Eats drivers have added
notes to this as well.
Some of the highlights are, man, this
Aussie chick looks hungover as.
And lol, isn't that the lady
off Celebrity Treasure Island?
You could go
creamy pasta right now, actually.
I wanted to bring to the table because it's the end of the year
and, I mean, you know, we're really dialing it in
and I thought something that I could bring to the table
was a remix that I had an idea for.
Oh, you want to do a remix?
Yeah, I want to do a remix.
Yeah, I'm into it.
Because we do have the remix master, Ben McDowell.
DJ Ben.
Yeah, DJ Ben on the show.
And I thought he could help me out and he's done a fantastic job.
DJ Ben.
Anyway, I had this idea because a song recently that has blown up the charts,
he's a Kiwi guy, is the song from Mitch James.
Oh, Sunday Morning?
Sunday Morning.
Love it.
Great song.
Such a big banger from him for summer.
And, like, to me, when I hear Mitch James, I think Kiwiana.
Yeah.
You know?
And I thought, can that song have a bit more of a pop?
Sure.
A bit more of a Kiwiana pop.
Yeah.
I love this, that you're giving Mitch James professional pop star advice
on how to make his music better.
Yeah, well, maybe he'll enjoy it, but I want your critique on it
because, I mean, you work in radio.
I thought we could do a remix of Mitch James' Sunday Morning
with a bit of, I guess, an injection of Kiwiana.
Sure, all right.
Take a listen.
It's 3am and you're lonely.
Father's Day is on Sunday.
Sunday morning.
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.
Sunday morning.
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.
And you say, as long as I'm gone by
Very good
Very good
Very good
I like it
It's got Mitch James in there
Yeah
But then you've got Father's Day Sunday
Sunday
In amongst the song
And it just gives it the pop that it needs
Yeah, yeah, I know
What are your thoughts?
I think you're right
Yeah
Sunday
I was watching the news last night No, you know what, I think you're right. Yeah. Sunday.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
I was watching the news last night.
God, hell of a story regarding show favourite Paula Bennett.
Yeah.
Who pulled a big boss dog move in Parliament.
Listen to this.
There were stunt faces in Parliament today as Paula Bennett pulled out what looked like half an ounce bag of wheat.
She was using it to protest the 14 grams per day that New Zealanders would be allowed to
buy if it's a yes in next year's referendum.
Half an ounce.
God.
So with that in mind, please welcome the most lit politician New Zealand has ever had.
Blaze it.
TJ Paula Bennett.
Paula, good afternoon.
Hello, mate.
Good afternoon.
How are you?
Very well.
Half an ounce of weed in Parliament.
Girl, you're lit.
Get out.
Yeah, it's pretty cold.
I did feel quite cold.
So dope.
I don't sound it, do I?
But, yeah, no.
No, it's a lot of weed.
It's a lot of weed.
Yeah, where did you get that weed?
Did you get a good deal?
It was a lot, you know, like it looked
like a lot in the bag.
I was quite surprised. They reckon it could be
up to 42 joints.
Whoa!
Two batches of, sorry,
two batches of hash brownies
I was told to, yeah.
Good to know. By the way, are you talking it up or talking it down here?
Because it sounds like you were kind of...
Yeah, I was going to say that.
I know, but I was a little excited.
But no, bad for you, don't agree.
Don't do it.
Paula Bennett.
This is obviously ahead of the marijuana.
I renamed it the other day, Paula.
Do you know if anyone's called it the reefer-endum yet?
Oh, that is quite cute, isn't it?
Paul, did you hear the disappointment in
Paula's voice? She goes, oh, yes, good one,
Clint.
It wasn't really weed that you had in Parliament,
was it? No, it wasn't. No, it wasn't.
Are you sure it looked
a hell of a lot like it?
Well, of course it did. It's oregano.
Oh, it's oregano.
Oregano.
Do you want to hear my other naughty thing?
Yeah
Which I'm now going to get in so much trouble
Because
So there's a
You know
Official record of everything
That's said in Parliament
And it's called Hansard
And then it goes on the records
And everything else
And so I get this
You know
This call last night
From one of the officials
Going I think you need to correct the record
Because it literally says
Paula Bennett
Holds up You know half a bag of cannabis.
And they were like, you had better correct that.
And I was like, oh, no, let's leave it.
Yeah, let's correct it.
Paula Bennett holds up half an ounce of weed and says, who's ready to blaze it?
I mean, he holds up half a bag of oregano.
Doesn't have the same effect.
It's not as cool.
Is it legal to carry that much oregano on you?
Yeah, is it?
Did you have a pizza you were intending to make?
Depends how many chickens you've got, doesn't it?
How much oregano you need.
Was the oregano for personal use
or were you looking to distribute it amongst kept?
I don't know what you do with that much oregano.
How much can you have on you and your person at one time?
We tried a bit of tea leaves.
Didn't look good.
Wait, I love this combo.
So you guys actually discussed what looks the most like weed.
Yes, we did.
And then you decided on the oregano.
Yes, we did.
Who's in that brains trust?
Is it you, Maggie Berry? Is she in there? No, this guy Tyson Yes, we did. Who's in that brains trust? Is it you, Maggie Barry?
Is she in there?
No, this guy Tyson, my millennial.
Did he have the most experience?
Who was the one who was like, nah, in my personal opinion.
Yeah, who's fact-checking the similarities for you?
Okay, this is a problem.
Like, Tyson's, I think, like 23, 24 years old, right?
I'm 50.
He was the one that wanted to go with the tea
and it's me that knew that the oregano
was going to look for real.
I think good call from you, Paula Bennett.
Good call.
Yeah, well, you're from West Auckland.
Yeah.
And that was that.
I looked at him.
I was slightly disappointed.
I said, do you seriously think
your little dried tea leaf there looks like weed?
Wake up, Junior.
I love that in the meeting
they both had to pitch what they thought
was the best option.
The weed lookalike.
I have so much to teach them.
Obviously, Paula.
The wisdom.
It's good to clear that up. We just wanted to get you on
because if you're packing half
an ounce of real weed in Parliament, girl,
you need to watch. You're rolling.
You know the referendum hasn't actually happened yet, you need to watch. You're rolling. Yeah, I just wanted to check.
You know the referendum hasn't actually happened yet and you can't actually walk around with that.
Next minute, Paula Bennett does collab with Snoop Dogg.
Okay, and then he's really, you know, and I've got to give him credit for it because it was quite funny.
So today, Winston Peters held up a big picture of me holding the bag of weed and went,
I don't know which one's the dope.
Shots fired!
But good on you for being able to give credit where credit's due on a good roast.
And that's why we love to have you on, mate.
On a good roast.
Oh, it's all right, mate.
It's a good day, Joe.
It was quite good.
Just before you go, we have to ask, do you still want to fight Bree?
You had your annulment this year.
Yeah, we're still on for that.
You and Brie, celebrity boxing match.
Remember I wanted like a tiddlywinks or a quiz,
and Brie didn't think that that would get a crowd.
No.
So we were thinking, could we settle on maybe a burnout competition?
Yeah.
You and a Commodore?
Yeah.
Me and a Ford?
Let's not rule that one out.
I'm leaving it in.
I think it stays on the table.
Good from you, Paula.
And also, depending on the results of the big election next year,
you could be free for Celebrity Treasure Island season two.
I'd be happy to have you on.
I mean, hopefully not, Paula, for your sake.
Let's get her on.
You would own that arena.
The players are not going to have time for something like that.
Oh, gosh, I'd know how to do the politics behind it, wouldn't I?
Oh, you would absolutely be in your element.
All right, that is New Zealand polit...
Lit politician.
Politician?
Politician.
Politician.
Paula Bennett.
This is why I love this country so much.
Thanks, Paula.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger.
All right, we're going to take three people's birthdays,
figure out what was number one on their 16th,
and then we'll pick the best one to play.

Good. How are you, Samara? Hi. Hi, how are you? Good.

Well, let's see if we can make it better with a birthday banger.
What's your birthday?
July 31st, 1996.
All right.
You were 16 in 2012 on the 31st of July,
and on that day, this was number one.
Oh, yeah. I've never got you in my life.
Spectrum, Florence and Machine, and the Calvin Harris remix.
Yeah.
Woo-hoo.
Good birthday, baby.
You like it?
Yeah.
That was a tune.
Okay.
Right there.
Let's see what else we get today.

And, Brandon, this is your birthday banger.
Goal.
Brandon, this has got you written all over it.
I can see you wearing one of those bra things
and then whipped cream comes squirting out of your boobies.
This is so you, man.
Yeah.
Yeah, sing it.
Sing it, Brandon.
You can't choose your birthday banger,
unfortunately.
No, you can't.
No, and that's yours for life as well.
So congratulations.
Yes, well done.
Yeah, thanks for that, guys.
Let the family know over Christmas.
We get one more from Hayley.
G'day, Hayley.
Hi, Hayley.
Hi.
What's your birthday, Hayley?
14th of June, 99.
All right.
You were 16 in 2015 on the 14th of June.
And on that day, this went to number one.
Arguably one of the best Jason Derulo songs.
It's a great song.
Good song.
It's a good song.
It's a good birthday banging too. It's a floor song. Good song. It's a good song. It's a good birthday banging too.
It's a floor filler.
Recently in the country.
Recently in the country.
Recently posting one hell of a package shot to Instagram as well.
And even more recently getting that shot taken down.
Yeah.
Did you see that picture, Hayley?
Yeah, I did.
It was hard to miss, wasn't it, Hayley?
Yeah.
There's a little bit going on.
Yeah.
Or a big bit.
Okay, wait there.
We need to pick a winner.
We've got Calvin Harris and Florence and the Machine with Spectrum.
We've got California Girls by Katy Perry.
And we've got Jason Derulo's Want to Want Me.
Spectrum, Florence and the Machine is my vote.
Yeah, I 100% agree.
That is an absolute juggernaut of a song.
You might have seen Calvin Harris play
this song at Spaccarina last
week. If not... It would have went off.
It definitely went off. It's huge.
Where's our winner? Samara, congratulations.
You've just won Birthday Banger.
Yay! This is for you, Samara.
Yay, thanks guys.
No worries. Enjoy this, everybody.

The Machine Spectrum.
I am shook.
I have just found out.
What?
You know when you find out something about a friend that you weren't expecting?
I know.
Producer Ellie.
How can you not like this woman's voice? Doesn't like
Florence from Florence and the Machine's
Voice. Yeah, like
I appreciate it. I know that she's talented.
No, don't sugarcoat it. And I know everyone likes it.
Yeah. But I just personally
don't. Boo. Boo, Ellie.
What about this song? What about this?
This is one of the greatest songs in the last hour long.
No, Ellie, you can't clap.
Not you, Ellie.
You're loud.
I don't like it.
You're banned.
All right, here we go, guys.
Here we go.
Stop clapping, Ellie.
She's phenomenal
The beat's good
I love this part that's coming up
Are you going to sing it?
Oh yeah her screechy voice
You're going to sing it
Don't you sing it
No don't you sing it
Ellie stop singing That's enough.
Anyway, just when you learn something about,
you think you know somebody.
I know, you think you do.
And then you find out on the same day they hate Drake
and Florence the Machine.
You find out they're a drug dealer.
ZDM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Look, the worst thing ever in life is if you find out someone is cheating on you.
It's one of the worst things.
Horrible feeling.
Horrible feeling, especially, I mean, if there's a lot of history,
if you're married, if there's kids, it just goes on and on.
But a woman, I don't know where she's from, but it's gone viral on Reddit
because she's come out and said how she found out her husband was cheating on her.
Okay.
And, I mean, what are the classics?
You go through someone's phone.
You walk in on them in the bed.
You walk in on them.
What else?
You find receipts for gifts that you didn't receive.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
But I've never heard of this one before.
And a woman, she was looking at a restaurant review.
Yeah.
So like someone, this guy, apparently his job is to go around to restaurants
and review restaurants and write critiques and stuff.
Okay, for like Zomato or something.
Yeah, well, I don't really know.
But anyway, he has his own blog and he posts pictures of the restaurants
and him in the restaurants.
Yeah.
Anyway, there was a comment on one of the posts because he wrote this review
about this restaurant or whatever.
And this woman was like, I've now discovered my husband is cheating
from this photo of you in the restaurant.
How?
And he was kind of like, what?
And she wrote, well, your latest review is accompanied by a picture of my husband
dining with a woman in the background who isn't me.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
How does she know that she's cheating?
What if it's a good point?
What if he's conducting an interview?
It's a very good point.
And you should give someone the benefit of the doubt.
Yeah.
So she did.
And she confronted her husband.
Yeah.
And said, who is she?
And apparently he confessed to a full affair.
All right.
So there's no more excuses then.
Wow.
Of all the ways to get caught, you know, you would have, I guess.
How random.
You're in the background of someone else's photo.
And so getting caught in the background of someone's photo is one thing,
but for his wife to then go and go, I wonder what this restaurant's like,
and then find that picture on there.
Like it's a, you were meant to get caught.
I don't believe in God, but I believe in this situation,
you were destined to get caught. I don't believe in God, but I believe in this situation, you were destined to be caught.
Well, apparently, do you want to hear,
because this started a Twitter feed or a Twitter thread
of other people saying how they found out.
Yeah.
And there's a few really good ones.
Someone said, a former colleague of mine got similarly caught out.
His wife was flicking through a holiday brochure
and was stunned to see a picture of her husband poolside
at an upscale Spanish resort with another woman.
He's in the brochure?
He's in the brochure!
If you're in the brochure, you had to pose for the picture,
you stupid idiot.
If you're there with a woman who's not your wife,
what are you doing posing for pictures?
Wow.
So good.
Well, cheaters beware.
I don't know.
Don't get photos.
God, stay out of the background.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
I've got a new holiday option for you, Bree.
This one's in Australia too, so you could actually do this.
It's in Aussie.
It's at the Great Barrier Reef.
Right, beautiful place.
It is Australia's first ever underwater hotel.
Ariel, listen to me.
The human world, it's a mess.
Sorry, any excuse to play something for the little mermaids.
I do love mermaids.
So this hotel has been launched.
It's called Reef Suites.
Reef Suites.
Reef Suites.
It's at the Great Barrier Reef in the Whitsunday region of Queensland.
And you will stay in a room which is four metres below the surface of the water.
Nah.
No thanks.
It's moored 40 nautical miles offshore.
So you're out in the water near the reef.
Yeah.
In the open water where sharks live. Yeah, absolutely. And yeah, you you're out in the water near the reef. Yeah, in the open water where sharks live.
Yeah, absolutely.
And yeah, you're deep down under the water.
I'll show you.
So your windows, it's like you're in a fish tank.
Your windows look directly out into the water.
Absolutely not.
Fish are swimming past your windows.
That is terrifying.
The purveyor of the fish will be coming up and having a look at you while you're naked.
Can you imagine waking up from a nightmare?
And you're underwater? And you're underwater?
And you're underwater.
Yeah, well, yeah, that's terrifying.
I mean, cool experience.
I get it.
Or that scene in Free Willy when Willy's smashing up against the glass.
That's right, yeah.
To get up.
Imagine you wake up and a great white is smashing against the glass.
No thanks.
If you would like to stay there, rooms begin at Australian $799 a night.
Jeez!
I hope bloody aerials swim and pass for that kind of price.
Yeah, four metres under the water.
I don't know if you have to pop your ears to go down there.
My ears aren't good at that stuff either.
Or if the rooms are pressurised or something like that.
How do you get down into the room?
You don't swim.
That's a really good question.
Oh, is it an underwater elevator?
It's only four metres.
So I imagine there's like a platform, like a pontoon.
And then you dive in.
No.
Yeah, that's it actually, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, you dive in.
You just do a bomb.
