Hello everybody and welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. Do you guys want to play a game? Yeah. Never have I ever. Oh yeah, you tend to take these games a bit far, but yeah. No, I've seen, it's on Facebook. Yeah. And essentially it's a game where you give yourself one point for everything you haven't done.

Oh, so we don't have to reveal the things, we just keep score. Is that what it is? Yeah, okay, we can do that. But you're trying to get no points, right? No, I think... So you get a point if you have done it or if you haven't done it? I think you get a point if you haven't done it. Right.

And so at the end, the highest score... Is the most prudish, probably. Oh, yeah, cool. Or the most innocent. Or the most innocent, yeah. The most innocent. Does anyone else have a pen? Yeah, I've got a pen here.

I've got a pen here. Do you need a pen? Yeah, can I have a pen? Are you joking? Sorry, I've just thought... Oh, there's a pen? Yeah, I've got a pen here. I've got a pen. Do you need a pen? Yeah, can I have a pen? Are you joking? Sorry, I've just thought of... Oh, there's a pen right there. Where? Down there.

All right, cool. This is live radio, bitch. Well, it's a podcast, so it's not. Live. Live podcast, bitch. All right, first thing. Yeah. All right, have we all got a pen?

Yeah, I've got one. All right, perfect. All right, first one. Never have I ever got one. All right, perfect. All right, first one. Never have I ever skipped school. Give yourself a point if you haven't done that. Whole day or part of a day? Part of a day counts. So if you've done it, you'd put a point down.

You get a point if you haven't done it. Yeah. If you haven't done it, you get a point. All right, cool. No points for that. Sorry, in secret, no points. Okay. Never have I ever broken a bone.

Give yourself a point if you haven't. All right. People can play along at home. Yep. Never have I ever fired a gun. Give yourself a point if you've never fired a gun. All right. Never have I ever.

This is boring because no one knows the things we have and haven't done. Yeah. Yeah, so you came up with that rule. Yeah, well, I hate it. I hate the idea. All right, what about this one? Never have I ever done drugs. Give yourself a point if you haven't done drugs.

Okay. I mean, I can see because I can see who's writing and who's not. Never have I ever been in a limo Wait, I'm confused again If I've been in a limo, do I get a point? Forget about it It's too hard Yeah, right

Can we go to the end one? What's the most risky one? Okay, let me find the most risky one More risky than done drugs And then we have to answer it Okay, let me find the most risky one, and then we all have to answer it. More risky than done drugs. And then we have to answer it. Okay. Out loud. Oh, that one's pretty good.

Hold on. Yeah, we have to answer it out loud. Yeah. How many points did you get? Did you not pre-read these before you made us answer them? No, I live on the edge, mate. On the edge of being fired. All right, here we go.

I've got a good one. Here we go. Go on. Never have I ever had a one night stand. Alright. Own up. Yep.

I'm a married man. I don't discuss that sort of thing. I don't. What a load of bull. I don't. I don't talk about it. Everyone has a past. That means he has. I had a one night stand and then I married her. Oh, that's nice it. Everyone has a past. That means he has. So I'll answer for you. I had a one-night stand and then I married her. Oh, that's nice.

That's not a one-night stand. But I get what you're trying to say. What a piss-poor answer. I have, yes. I'll admit. At one point in my life, I think I've only had one, actually. You hussy. You harlot. Don't you dare slut-shame me.

I need to vacuum something unrelated. Mike Hosking? Yeah. Did he bring that from home? No. No, no. He didn't. Oh, are you being careful now what you say?

No. No, I know all this because I've seen it on Instagram. From what I understand, the Hosk has a Dyson V10, which is here to service the studio. Not our studio. And at home, they have the Dyson V11, which is the new one. So he's got the up model. Yeah.

And you would keep that one at home, wouldn't you? Yeah, you have the better one at home. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. Oh, I'm not doubting that he's doing you? Yeah, you have the better one at home.

I don't know. I don't know. I haven't seen him do any sponsored posts for them. Like a post where he's like vacuuming up some dog hair. He's like, my favourite feature of the Dyson V11 is how much it sucks. He doesn't do sponsored posts, does he? Of course he doesn't. He's Mike Hosking. Yeah, he doesn't need to. He's got like eight Ferrar. He doesn't do sponsored posts, does he? Of course he doesn't. He's Mike Hosking.

Yeah, he doesn't need to. He's got like eight Ferraris, doesn't he? Hey, today on the show, your chance to play cliffhangers with us. That's coming up. That's going to be fun. But next, I want to talk to people who find their job boring, okay?

Do you find your job boring? Because if you do... Oh, look at the phones. Light up. Producer Ben, stop calling the show. Right? If you find your job boring, you may be able to sue your boss for boredom. That's a real thing that's happening in 2020.

I told my mum that I was going to sue her because I was bored. She never believed me. Your mum? Yeah, when I was a kid. Oh, right. Same thing. Did you work for her? I mean, yeah, I did chores.

All right, I'll give you some info next. ZM. I had a dream. Brianne Clint. Right now, are you bored? In your job currently, are you bored at what you're doing? Well, listen up, because a man in France has successfully sued his employer for $87,000 because his job was too boring.

That's insane. Yeah. The man worked for a high-end French perfume company. Okay. Sounds not too bad. Yeah. He said that he had so few jobs to do in his job that no one cared whether he showed up at 9 a.m. or 10 a.m.

Dream situation. Yeah. Why are you complaining? He says that in his job, he had to buy some supplies, like a few sheets of paper. And that was it. His job was done. The day was over.

I do feel for that guy because I've worked jobs where I'd constantly be like, is there anything you want me to do? Do you have anything for me to do? And not having anything to do is probably worse than having too much to do. Mind-numbing, right? It's terrible. And you don't feel like you have a purpose.

But there will be some people out there right now. It's like, care for what you wish for, right? There's some people out there right now who haven't even had a lunch break yet and it's quarter past three and they're like, I would kill for a boring job. I mean, you want something in between. This guy says it was killing him. He hated the job. And he suffered from, and this is a real thing, bore out,

which is the opposite of burnout. Took his boss to work and said, I'm suffering from bore out, and they had to pay him out $87,000. How crazy is that? That is, I've never heard of that before, but I mean, I can kind of understand it. What's the most boring job you've ever had? I've had a few.

Right, don't say this one. No, definitely no. This is like my dream job. Yeah. I'm so grateful. What's the most boring job you've had? Celebrity treasure hunt? No!

I love that job also. I've had a few real bad jobs. I used to work, I told you about that one time jobs I used to work I told you about that one time I used to work in a shed And I'd have to put on this big white suit And like big white boots and gloves And hairnets and stuff And my job was to pick up

Mixed lettuce That came off a conveyor belt And put the lettuce into a bag Yeah right And then I would literally pick the lettuce up Into the bag That was it Right Someone else would literally pick the lettuce up into the bag. That was it. Right. Someone else would even do the boxes up because that wasn't my job.

Is there a name for that job? A lettuce packer. And you know what the thrill of the week was for me? It was the thrill of the week which was when sometimes they would put snow pea shoots into the mixed lettuce. Oh, exciting. And when they would do that, I would eat some of those on the side

and that was the highlight of the week. Yeah, well, good for you. Thank you, mate. What about you? Most boring job I ever had was working at the bottom of a chairlift, which in summer, and this is at the luge, very exciting job, lots of people around. But in winter, when no one's luging,

you're just standing at the bottom of a chairlift watching chairs go around, trying to invent games, hoping that somehow a chair got out of order and the numbers wouldn't be the same. Because you're literally counting them. The scandal. 86, 87, 88, 89. That's mind numbing stuff. And you'd be there by yourself.

Yeah, by yourself. At least my job when I was packing lettuce, I had someone else next to me. Oh, yeah. No, no. This is standing at the bottom of a hill by yourself. We couldn't talk to each other because the machine was so loud. But, you know, human, like, you know, existence. I wonder if we can find New Zealand's most boring job this afternoon.

Maybe you're in it right now or maybe you had to quit because that job was so boring. And if you are in it right now and you're like, oh, I don't want to call up in case my boss is, you can remain anonymous. I mean, yeah, it is an important time to remain grateful for your job at the moment, especially. But it doesn't mean it's not boring.

We can keep you anonymous. 0800 dials at M or text it to 9696. What's the most boring job you ever, ever had? We're going to find the winner amongst the group. This might be the most exciting thing you do all day. Bree and Clint. Looking for New Zealand's most boring job. Guy in France has sued his work

for $87,000 because he got bore out. It's the opposite of burnout. He was so bored. He said no one cared what time he showed up to work, which might sound like a dream situation to some people. But he said nah, it was killing him. He was so bored. He sued them for $87,000. Jeez.

So what's New Zealand's most boring job? Can we find it this afternoon? Mark's here. G'day, Mark. Hello, Mark. Hey. How are you guys? Good.

How are you? Good, good. My job wasn't actually in New Zealand, but it was in the UK. Okay. And I can definitely feel for that guy. Yeah, right. I used to work in a water plant and for probably about six months of the year

they would shut down this water plant but they still wanted me to turn up every day and there was nothing to do. So, you know, as you are living in London, we'd go out for a night on the booth and I'd spend my day at work asleep or watching Dragon Ball Z on YouTube. Yes, Mark.

Yes. How good's Dragon Ball Z? Did you ever get in trouble for that? Obviously, it's a shut down water plant, so there's nothing you could be doing. No. But did they know you were getting paid to sleep and watch Dragon Ball Z?

Oh, no one said anything. My boss did turn up one day and he said, what are you up to today? And I said, oh, I'm planning my wedding. And you're paying for it. Dragon, dragon, rock the dragon. Dragon Ball Z. Michaela, hi. Hi, Michaela.

You may have New Zealand's most boring job, is that correct? That's correct. I did the paper run for seven years. You did a paper run for seven years? And was it the exact same route? Yeah, it was every time. Every Thursday, the same route every single time. And I sort of changed it sometimes because I'd go further down in Egmont Street or further down Victoria

Street, but it wasn't much. Oh, my God, it does sound boring. When you were feeling adventurous. I feel for you. That does sound incredibly boring. You used to do a paper route, didn't you? I did, and I hated every day of it. Splitting wood is a boring job, according to someone on the text machine.

Someone said an early childhood teacher was the most boring job I ever had, so I quit it last week. I'm sure it's a tough job. I wouldn't have thought that early childhood was a boring job. I'd say it would be different all the time. Like one day a kid wets themselves, the other day like a kid's crying about something else. Yeah.

Shout out to the guys in the sheds right now. Someone said pulling tits on cows is the most boring job I've ever had. That'd be, dairy farmers have a rough job, eh? Yeah. What about this one? Someone said, I worked in a potato harvester which was pulled by a tractor picking out rotten potatoes from the conveyor belt. I did

that in my dad's apple picking shed where I would stand up on this thing and pick out rotten apples from this conveyor belt and do it for like eight hours. God, you've got a weird background. I remember every now and then. You tell me stories like this and I'm like, oh yeah, that's right.

You've lived a different life. Mate, if you ever came to my family home, you would honestly be like, I was down in dad's apple shed and I was picking out the rotten apples. And this was a good day. And that's not even one of the crazy stories. This is normal.

Bree and Clint from iHeartRad stories. This is normal. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's on the show with us. Dean, there's big news for Gossip Girl fans today. Well, maybe, right? Oh my God. I am living. XOXO

God it's a divisive time To be alive At the moment isn't there There's lots of people fighting Lots of political opinions Coming against each other Can't we all be friends You know

I have read that online At times And I was like, you're missing the point. Yeah, you are missing the point. I disagree. Get out there, protest, make your voice heard. I just want you to be aware that there is another war on the horizon

that we might not be fully prepared for. And I mean you and I might not be fully prepared for. Why you and I? What have we done? Because I've got a feeling that the great battle of millennials versus Gen Z is about to erupt. Oh, hell no. Yeah.

Why? What problem did Gen Z have with us? I didn't know they had any problem with us. Wait, so wait. Let me wrap my head around this. Yeah. Millennials, otherwise known as Gen Yers. Yeah.

Which, how old are we? So we are 22 to 40. Amazing that you can be 40 and a millennial. God, that means Ross Boss is a millennial. Just. He's the world's oldest millennial. But he is a millennial. But he's just in there.

But he's in there, yeah. And so down to 22. That's why he's allowed to be the boss of ZM. Right. Next year, though. He's out. There's going to be a coup. And then so Gen...

Yeah, and so 22 to 40 is millennial, Gen Y. And then under 22 is Gen Z. There's a TikTok video by someone by the name of Maya Lepa, which is doing the rounds at the moment. I'm just going to play you the audio of it. Have a listen to this. Tired of boomers bunching Gen Z and millennials together because I personally don't want to be associated with people

who still think that Harry Potter movies are a personality trait. Ouch. Ouch. Oh, hell no. She's going straight for our Harry Potter millennial jugular. I've just realized we're now in that generation that isn't cool anymore. We're the boomers. We might be. We might be

becoming the boomers. It's the comments of this video that are really coming at us. I feel personally attacked. I'm going to read you a couple of the comments. These are comments that Gen Z people have made towards millennials.

Oh, no. Millennials are worried about their Harry Potter house, but they live in a one-bedroom apartment. You guys are worried about the wrong house. I'm a savage. Classy, bougie, ratchet. At least we had Harry Potter. Yeah, but they're saying spice up your life, millennials.

I'll give you another one. Give me another one. All millennials say is blah, blah, adulting, blah, blah, doggos, blah, blah, avocado toast. Oh, please shut up. I'm a savage. Classy, bougie, ratchet. Yeah, sure, maybe we did go on about avocado toast for a bit long,

but, you know, it's delicious. Yeah, it's probably because they've never had it because they can't afford it yet. Oh, you're firing back. I like this. Maybe there is a war. Okay. And one more.

This is comments from Gen Z that are doing the rounds at the moment, which makes me think they might hate us. Millennials like to say, Ugh, I hate adulting. Please just give me a slice of pizza and some wine. Like, sis, you're 32 and you're an alcoholic. Please sit down. I'm a savage.

Classy, bougie, ratchet. Can I just say, as someone who's now in my 30s, is there anyone out there, do we know what we're meant to be doing? In our 30s? Yeah, because I don't know. No, none of us do.

I actually don't know. No, and now if Gen Z know that we don't have our shit together, we're doomed. Yeah, like I'm still on TikTok. Bree and Clint. Something that people might not know about me is that I have a weird obsession with watching UFC clips. Oh, yeah, you do too.

I don't know why. Yeah. Like you don't even buy the fight when it's live. Nah. You just like watching old fights on Facebook. And I'll just scroll and scroll and scroll. I've seen her do it in the studio as well. She's like, oh, Clint, you've got to see Khab got to see you've got to see Khabib vs.

Wartner. It's one of the craziest Oh, this is the bit! And she goes into this real primal bit. No offence to UFC fans or anyone wearing tap out board shorts at the moment. You do you, Boo. But I didn't pick you as a UFC person. Yeah, I think I got on the Ronda Rousey

train a couple of years ago and I went to the UFC the first time it was in Australia. Anyway. How good was she in Fast and the Furious? Stop. She's had a rough trot. I know, but in Fast and the Furious, she was fantastic. Yeah, all right.

You know when they jump the car between the two buildings? Yes, I know. Between the two skyscrapers? I know. Yeah, right. God, those are good movies. Anyway, I was scrolling through some of the UFC clips on Facebook and I came across this one particular fight

where I'd never seen these two guys before, but there was one guy whose name was Anthony Ivey and he was fighting another guy, which I'm not going to say his name yet, but I literally had to double take every time they said this guy's name because it sounded so similar to a female pop star. Oh. I was really confused.

Anyway, we've grabbed the clip. Take a listen at how similar this UFC fighter's name is to a female superstar. Oh, he's hurt. He's hurt. Aguilera kind of sensing it now. There we go. Pink white hands.

That's it. Wow. Less than a minute in, Christian Aguilera getting it done. What the hell? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So it's like Aguilera, very unusual name. Yeah. Well, maybe not where they're from.

But to be Christian Aguilera. Yeah. Like how similar? Is it a male fighter or a female fighter? It's a male fighter. Called Christian Aguilera. Yeah. God, no wonder he got into fighting.

Poor guy will have been bullied his whole life. Every time he walks in a room, they'll be like, ooh, too dirty to clean your ass up. He's like, that's it. I'm going to the gym and I'm going to learn how to fight and then you'll be sorry. You know what's even weirder is that dirty is his walkout song. I don't know if that's true, but that would be brilliant.

You missed a really good opportunity there. You should have said fighter was his walkout song. Do it! You know? Maybe he'd change it up. I should have said fighter was his walkout song. Makes me that much stronger. Do it. Makes me work a little bit harder. You know? Maybe he can change it up. They both do. Christian Aguilera.

Here he comes. Play the song. Yeah, bloody good. All right. Well, that was a worthwhile deep dive. You finally found something good. Finally found something worth it. But I wanted to ask people, because I always am so interested in this. Did you or do you currently have or do you know someone who has a name very similar to a celebrity?

Oh, like an almost famous name. Yeah. Or maybe they have the exact same name. Maybe your best mate at school was Brad Pitt. Oh, okay. You know, something like that. Or maybe your best mate at school was Jonathan Lomu. Yeah, maybe. Okay. We're not going to take the real ones because that's kind of missing the point. Oh, okay. You know, something like that. Or maybe your best mate at school was Jonathan Lomu. Yeah, maybe. Okay. We're not going to take the real ones because that's kind of missing the point.

Oh, we'll take those two. What real ones? Like say if someone was actually best friends with Jonah Lomu. Oh, right. We'll take those calls 0800 DIAL ZM or you can text us on 9696. Do you have or do you know someone with a name similar to a celebrity's? Bree and Clint. Over the weekend, I came across a UFC fighter

that has a very similar name to a pop diva. Take a listen. Oh, he's hurt. He's hurt. Aguilera kind of sensing it now. There you go with that pink white hand. That's it. Wow.

Less than a minute in, Christian Aguilera getting it done. Imagine getting your beats from Christian Aguilera. I mean, it's fitting that Christina Aguilera has a song called Fighter and his name is Christian Aguilera and he's a fighter. Yeah, it's perfect. They've got to do some kind of deal. They should do a collab. Yeah, right.

So we've asked you this afternoon. They should fight. Oh, no, too far. No, that's too far. Way too far. Yeah, right. Yeah,'ve asked you this afternoon. They should fight. Oh, no, too far. No, that's too far. Way too far. Yeah, right. Yeah, shouldn't have said that. She'd win.

Probably. We've asked you guys this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, do you or someone you know have a similar name to a celebrity? Amy's here. Hi, Amy. Hi, Amy. Hi. Is it you that has a similar name to a celebrity?

No, it's one of my best friends. Okay, what's her name? Paris Holton. Oh, whoa. That's close. Paris Holton. Yeah. How old is she?

She's 20. Right. Okay, so would Paris Hilton have been famous before? It's a very good question. Because if Mr. and Mrs. Holton were aware of Paris Hilton have been famous before? It's a very good question. Because if Mr. and Mrs. Holton were aware of Paris Hilton at the time of their daughter's birth, you've got to think they should have avoided the name Paris, right? Yeah, no, I don't think they knew about her.

I don't think they would have avoided that. Paris Hilton's 39. She's 39. And when did her movie come out? Hold on. We're going to movie come out? Hold on. We're going to do the stats here, Amy. We're going to get to the bottom of this once and for all. Oh, I've been blocked on my computer.

All right, sounds good. Oh, you can't go to that website. I shouldn't have typed in what I typed in. Amy, we'll take your word for it. It's a pleasant coincidence. That's very close, though, Amy. Yeah. Okay, thanks for that.

We appreciate it. Good. You got a text? Yeah, there's a few texts coming through. Someone said, my best friend's name is Kelly Clarkson. She was the number one women's surfer in New Zealand at the time that Kelly Clarkson rose to fame on American Idol. Yeah, right.

You just got to hope that you become more famous. Like you're keen to become the most famous Kelly Clarkson. Big job. Paige is here. G'day, Paige. Hi, Paige. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks.

Is it you that has a similar name to a celebrity? No, it's actually my son. Your son? Oh. Oh, so wait, you did this to him? You did this. No, I got there first. Okay.

Okay, interesting. What's your son's name? So my son's name is Archer Windsor. So the same name as Prince Harry's son. Archie Windsor? Whoa! Hang on, how old's your son? He's two and a half. Oh yeah, you definitely got in.

Yeah, you definitely got in. Have you sent him a letter? No, I haven't sent him a letter, no. Decease and desist immediately. So is your last name Windsor? No, that's his middle name. Oh, okay. Because I was going to say, have you checked to see that you're not

related to, you know? No, definitely not. Just the middle name. Okay, thank you Paige. Interesting. There's one that's just come through. Oh, there's so many good ones on the text machine. Someone said, my name is Ariana Grandy.

Wait, how is it different? So her name is Ariana Grandy. That's so close. Wait, how is it different? So her name is Ariana instead of Grande with an E. Her name ends with an I. Grandy. Grandy. That's so close. And Chris, welcome to the show. Do you have a famous-ish name or someone you know?

I do myself. You do yourself. What is it, Chris? Christopher Lloyd. As in the guy from Back to the Future? That would be correct. No way. Coincidence?

I think not. Have you seen that Brie and I have just purchased a DeLorean? No. We have. Last week we purchased a DeLorean. Well, it's a Mitsubishi Diamante that looks like a DeLorean. Oh, yeah. We might have to get you involved with our...

Great, Scott, we might have to get you involved with our road trip somehow. Oh, yeah? No, he's not interested. Fair enough. I don't blame him. You've had this your whole life, haven't you? I don't, yeah. Yeah, okay.

You can tell he's over it. You called us, Christopher Lloyd. Thank you to everybody, especially the last person who texted us, Alex Rose from Guns N' Roses. How good. He says he always gets grief and people always call him Axel. Very big news in the cartoon world today, Clint. Oh, yeah.

Because the creators of one massive cartoon has come out and said that the main character of the show is actually gay. No way. It's this show. Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? SpongeBob SquarePants! Absorbent and yellow and porous is he. SpongeBob SquarePants!

If nautical nonsense be something you wish... SpongeBob Squarepants. In celebration of June's Pride Month, the creators of the show, Nickelodeon, have celebrated it on their Twitter, saying that, yeah, it's true. Sponge Bob is... Gay. Wow.

Because there was a lot of confusion around his character for a while where the creator of the series, Stephen Hillenburg, actually described him as asexual, an asexual character for a long time and kind of avoided it. But apparently they've come out today and said no. They can't hide it no more. SpongeBob needs to be his true self. He's proud.

And he's out and proud. Wow. It made me think about, you know, what it's actually been over the years in terms of, like like characters on cartoon shows who've been representing the LGBTQI plus community. Yeah. And it's quite interesting to read back over some of the shows where you might not have really realised,

but they've kind of danced around it. But I saw a popular TV show that we've all watched at certain points is The Simpsons. Yes. And you might remember, of course, Smithers was always portrayed as a gay character. Yeah. Did they ever fully acknowledge that he was?

See, I haven't watched the latest series. I know he had a crush on Mr Burns. For years and years and years. And was kind of just alluded to, right? All the time. And he loved Malibu Stacy. That was another reason why you were supposed to suppose that Smithers was gay.

And there was also obviously, was it Marge's sisters, Paddy and Selma? Yeah. Paddy officially came out in a 2005 episode and that episode actually carried an occasional warning of content that might be unsuitable for children back in 2005 because that was portrayed on the show. They had to warn people?

Yeah. But, yeah, there's been other episodes where she has had girlfriends and stuff but nothing, you know, long-term on the show. Is she the only character on The Simpsons that's actually come out, though? I think so. Yeah. But don't quote me on that because I'm not The Simpsons that's actually come out, though? I think so. Yeah. But don't quote me on that because I'm not a Simpsons expert. But from what I just read, like bits and pieces, yes.

They allude to it with Carl and Lenny as well, don't they? Yeah, they do, yeah. But they never actually address it. A bit like Bert and Ernie. Also, a really popular cartoon anime show was well before its time. You might remember this TV series. Sailor Moon. God, I love this show.

Is Sailor Moon gay? No, but you might remember Sailor Neptune or Sailor Uranus who was a part of the Sailor Moon, not the group, what were they called? I can't remember what the girls were called.

The Sailors. But they all used to fight together and there was like Sailor Neptune and Sailor Pluto and all the girls. Anyway, apparently those two were in a relationship together back in the early 90s and they became one of the best well-known same same sex relationships in history in anime. Wow. That's huge for the creators of Spongebob

to come out and say that. I'm really happy about it but you know those, you know when the brand is that big, especially the American ones too, quite often they're scared of making a stand and drawing a line in the sand there because they don't want to piss anybody off. And they will and they will will lose people, which is really sad.

But I think for kids who are young, growing up and not really knowing what's going on with them and seeing a character like that depicted in a cartoon show, I think is really exciting for those young kids who it might really help them to understand themselves a bit better. Yeah, I agree. And imagine the sad sack who gets angry that SpongeBob is gay. Like, come on.

How can you be angry at SpongeBob? Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier. As at Herald's new podcast, the front page is your short, sharp daily news podcast.

This is a game where you tell us three quarters of a story from your life and then stop there. Yep, and you leave us on a cliffhanger. Yours and my job, Clint, we write alternative endings to the story. Yep. And then your real ending gets thrown in the mix

and it's everyone else's job to pick which is the real ending to the story. The person to leave us on a cliffhanger today is Andrew. G'day, Andrew. G'day, Andy.

Hey, guys, how we going? Good. How are you, mate? Yeah, not too bad. Not too bad. Love your TV show, by the way, Bree. So good. Thanks, Andy.

That's so lovely. The finale's this Thursday. It's my favourite episode by the way, Bree. So good. Thanks, Andy. That's so lovely. It finales this Thursday. It's my favourite episode of the series. So that's really lovely of you to say. And you're good too at the DJ stuff that you do and stuff. Jeez, Andrew, you are really barking up the right tree here. I like this. You're a legend, Andy.

I appreciate it. All any time. Okay, Andy, we're really excited to hear your story. So give us three quarters of it, everything but the ending. Okay, sweet. It must mean around, I don't know, seven and a half years ago, my girlfriend and I went to the Gold Coast. And basically, I ended up missing the plane

because I got stopped at the metal detector. And my girlfriend was like, oh, what's this all about? And I said, don't worry, we'll be all sweet. And then I was taken away, and then what happened? Oh, this is a good cliffhanger, Andy, because my palms are sweaty hearing about anything to do at an airport. Producer Ben has three endings. One is the real one.

The other two were written by Bree and I. Ben, give us the options. Okay, ending number one. Turns out he was planning on proposing to her in the Gold Coast and the engagement ring triggered the metal detector. Number two. They took me away to a private room and checked my whole body. They even searched my butthole.

Turns out it was my belt buckle. Did you have to say the whole BH? Number three. He remembered that he had packed a knuckle buster belt. Sorry. Did you have to say the whole BH? Number three. He remembered that he had packed a knuckle duster belt buckle he brought in Thailand a couple of years ago and was about to go down. Which of those is the correct ending to Andrew's cliffhanger? Nicole, you're going to have a guess.

Hi. Hi, Nicole. Hi, how are you going? Do you think you can pick it? I don't know. It's kind of hard. I think the first one and the third one, but I have to go with the third

because that was the first one I thought. Okay, the third ending. The Thailand knuckle one. The Thailand knuckle duster outcome. Andrew, what's the correct ending to your cliffhanger? I don't want to do this. It was the other option you were tossing out with. It was number one. The engagement ring?

It was. That means, Andy, you take home the mobile fuel. Oh, I'm so sorry. You missed out. Sorry, Nicole. Don't be sorry, Andrew. You've got to defend that money at all costs. It's yours. Andrew, tell us what happened. So you were planning on proposing, and they found the engagement ring.

Yeah, and basically they offered for my girlfriend to go with me to get checked, and I was like, no, no, no, I don't want you. And then basically we almost broke up because she thought it was, like, drug-related or something real bad. Oh, my God, yeah. No. So I ended up on a different plane. It cost me more money. And, yeah, in the end, proposed and we've been married

and got a child for six years now. Oh, there you go. And you've got a great engagement story. That's epic. Yeah. And she never found out about your drug problem, too. And no one saw your butthole, so. Stop saying butthole.

We're going to send you mobile fuel, Andy. Congratulations, man. Thanks, mate. Brie and Clint. Have you ever found a decent amount of money, Brie? In my dad's hiding place, I have. Oh, inside. Oh, I can't say it.

Don't say where it is. No, say where it is. In the Bible, that's where Dad puts all the undies. Has he cut out a bit in the middle of the Bible? You know how people do that and they hide like a hip flask in there? He's not James Bond. He just puts it in between the pages. Oh, right.

Near his favourite verses. Yeah. Maybe as bookmarks. Yeah, he's like, I love John 715 and it's made me a very rich man. They're always crisp $100 notes. Yeah, because it's been pressed by a Bible. Probably why. Imagine this.

You're on a train and you find not a bag of money but an actual bag of gold. I'd be like, well, this is fake. Would you? Yeah, I don't think I'd think it was real. Real gold? Yeah, would you? Yeah, because I know.

Typical you, eh? Or it'd be heavy. Get rich quick, like Clinton trait. From what I can see from this story, because this has happened to someone in Switzerland, they've found a bag containing, oh, no, it wouldn't be gold bars. How much is a gold bar worth?

A lot. A lot. Well, I don't know. Like 250, I don't know. Okay, this person's found a bag with three kilos of gold inside it, which is... How much is $250? I don't know. Okay, this person's found a bag with three kilos of gold inside it, which is $300,000. So it's $100,000 a kilo.

Yeah, there's good math. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, they've handed it in, which is the right thing to do, I guess. Would you hand it in? I know, tough call. I feel like guilt would get me. Like, I remember when I was in grade nine and I found a Nokia 90. What were those ones?

3210. 3210 on the oval. Yeah. And I felt real guilty about it. And I was like, should I hand it in? Shouldn't I? Yeah, you've got to hand a phone in because that's someone's phone. And then I handed it in.

Yeah. And they said to me, they were like, if no one picks it up, you can have it. Yeah. And that's how I got my first phone. Well, that's the story of this gold too. So someone's handed it in. Oh, and they said if no one comes to pick it up. If no one comes to pick it up in five years, they get to keep the gold.

Five years? Yeah, I thought five years is a bit long too. Because if you've lost your gold, who's waiting four and a half years to go and get it? Because that's something that regular happens. Yeah. Hey, Marcy, I bloody lost my gold again today. I swear I had an extra three kilos of gold. Where would I have left it?

Well, you did catch that train back in 2020. Maybe you left it on there. True. I better go and get it before Christmas 2025 rolls around. Who's walking around with three kilos of gold? Scrooge McDuck? And I'm an honest person. I wouldn't normally look to

keep someone else's ill-gotten gains. But if it's gold, if you're walking around with three kilos of gold, if you're walking around with enough gold that you are not concerned about where it is at all times and you can leave it on a train, then I'm not sure

that I feel that guilty about keeping your gold. Whatever you need to tell yourself when you take the gold. No, I'm just saying, like, I also don't know what to do with gold. Like, can you walk into, like... Oh, I always think this when I watch movies and they, like, enter the blue with Paul Walker and he finds all of that gold. Yeah, what do you do? I don't know what you do with it.

Can you take it into the bank and go, put this in my account? Yeah, right? It's like gold billions. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how it works either. You know what I did see on a show once? Yeah.

They found all these gold bars and they melted them down so they didn't look like gold bars so they couldn't identify where it came from. Yeah. And then they tried to palm it off to a pawn shop. Yeah. And they were like, this is like $200,000 worth of gold and they got caught. I also don't know how to melt gold down.

Oh, you just get a blowtorch and you just... Melt it down. Yeah, just melt it. Yeah, anyway, if you have been on a train in Switzerland recently and you've misplaced three kilos of gold, you've got five years to go and collect it. Bree and Clint. Look, someone who joins us on the show quite frequently three kilos of gold, you've got five years to go and collect it.

Look, someone who joins us on the show quite frequently is my mother, Mama Di. She's known as on the show. And I've got some maybe concerning news. Right. We better get her on then. Yeah, we better get her on. Mama Di, good afternoon. Hello, Mum.

Good afternoon, guys. How are you going? We're good. Look, we wanted to get you on the show this afternoon because we have received some alarming, potentially alarming news, which pretty much involves you. Oh, okay. I hope it's not too bad, like a broken leg.

Yeah, that was a crock of BS. Yeah, sorry about that. This one's dead set real. I agree. And we've actually received this information from a few people, which maybe, Mum, we seem to think someone here in New Zealand has stolen your identity. They must be desperate.

Hit her with the facts, Brie. When you say stolen identity, what are you talking? Well, I'm exaggerating a bit. But, Mum, look, this is the deal. I've gotten a number of picture texts from a few people who live in Palmerston North, which we've visited Palmerston North a few times. Yeah, love Palmerston. Love that joint down there. And I've gotten a few texts from people that live in Palmerston North, which we've visited Parmy North a few times. Yeah, love Parmy.

Love that joint down there. And I've gotten a few texts from people that live there, and they're pictures of this particular car that is kicking around Parmy North, which has the number plate, personalised plate mum, Mama Di. Oh, look. What kind of car is it? It's an Aston Martin

DB9. Yeah. The Rich. Not bad. That's a Bond car. Yeah. I was also lying, by the way. He's joking. But I thought, Mum, who is this woman? Is this the New Zealand version of you? Is she living in Palmy North? Have we, you know, missed her this whole time?

Or has New Zealand always had a mumma die and you're the imposter? Who is the original? Are we going to have to rebrand you? You know? Because if this mumma die came first, I'm sorry, but you're going to need a new name. And that's what we need to get to the bottom of, Clint. Yeah.

So what we're going to do is, Mum, the power of radio, we're going to give out the details of this car to see if we can track down the Palmy North version of Mumadai. Yeah, okay. What details do you have? So these are the details I have. The car is blue. The number plate, of course, is Mumadai,

spelled M-U-M-A-D-I, and it's a Nissan Qashqai. Yeah, right. That's the details that I have. It's in Palmy North. It's been seen driving around there. Yeah. Surely someone knows who owns that car. You got any intel for us, Mama Di?

Do you have any hot leads yet? Oh, wow. I'm just excited to think that someone might think that it's on worth stealing my identity. Yeah, right. Unless it's a tribute as well. Unless they've gone, she's my favourite. Well, you know what's interesting?

She's my favourite celebrity. Celebrity? You know what's interesting? They mustn't have a TV then. It's above and below the number plate. It says, We Love, and then Mama Dies in capitals, and then underneath her it says Forever. So it could be a tribute. I don't

know. It could be someone who loves you. Okay, let's go wide. Let's get it out there now. We've got lots of listeners in Palmy, all over the Central North Island and Lower North Island. Let's see if there's someone who has any information on this right now. Do you have a lead on the Nissan Qashqai? It's blue

and it has the number plate Mama Di. It's been driving around Palmerston North. We need any leads on this we can get. Is it you? Is it your car? Phone lines are open, 0800DIALS.M or you can text your leads through to us on 9696. We'll take anything.

We're looking for the owner of the Mama Di car in Palmerston North. Bree and Clint. They're conducting an investigation. That's right. Obviously, my mum, Mama Dai, she is on our show quite a lot. And recently, I've been getting a lot of photos from people down in Palmy North who said, is she the original or is the New Zealand Mama Dai

who's getting around in a Nissan Qashqai with the number plates Mama Di, the original Mama Di? Mama Di, Australian version, is still with us. Are you there, Mama Di? My word I am because I think we need to sort this out. Yeah, so do we. Well, you've been wanting the number plate Mama Di here in New Zealand for a long time, haven't you? Yeah, for that car you've got over here.

Yeah. Yeah, your secret hideaway, your New Zealand bolt hole. Oh, yes. Yeah, down in Queenstown. This is what we've done. We've put it out there with the power of radio and this show to ask people, does anyone know a mumma die down in Palmy North

that drives that particular car? Is it a tribute or are they the original Mama Di? And you wouldn't believe it, we've already got leads. Avril has messaged the show. Hi, Avril. Hello, mate. Hi. Now, you've got a pretty good lead.

You say you know someone with the name Diane who lives in Palmerston North. Yes, and she's known as Mama Di down at the Hockey Tooth. Oh. Okay. Oh, dear. Oh. Okay. Oh, dear. Oh, dear. No. Avril, do you know what type of car she drives?

No, I'm not much of a car person, but I do know that she has a blue car, and I have seen the number plate before, too. So, wait, wait. You've seen the car and the number plate? I have, yeah. I'm going to say it's probably her. I'm going to say that's probably her.

Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure it is her. Now we need to know from you, because you could crack this case wide open for us right now, how long has this Diane been going by the name Mama Di? So I've always known her as Mama Di for as long as I've been playing hockey and I'm pretty sure she was Mama Die long before that.

So at least 10 years. Oh God. Oh it's not looking good for you Australian Mama Die. But we do eventually need to talk to the horse's mouth. Is that the saying? No. If I just offended someone. Do not call any woman the horse's mouth.

Jeez. What's the saying then? We need to get it from the horse's mouth. I'm just offended that someone's stolen my mum's nickname. We've got one more lead, although it sounds like we may have got to the bottom of the case in one phone call. Anonymous.

You're welcome to be anonymous. Welcome to the tip line. What information have you got for us, Anonymous? Are you the horse's mouth? How much information do you really want to know? Well, this is the thing. There's someone driving around with a Mamadai number plate in Palmerston North, and we just want to talk to them, really.

What have you got for us? Oh, she's my ex-mother-in-law, and we brought her the number plate. No! No! No! This case is being blown wide open! Your ex-mother-in-law and you purchased the plate. Oh, no, the family bought the plate for her. The family bought the plate.

So you know for a fact that she has that exact number plate? Yes. Can I ask, Anonymous, does she also do stuff with hockey? Not that I know of. I know it's a lot of dancing stuff, but not hockey. Oh, I'm confused now. I'm confused too. Now, I know you said X,

so I'm not sure what the relationship is like there with you and the palmist in North Mumadai, but do you think she's the sort of person who would come on the radio for a conversation with us? I don't, honestly, wouldn't have a clue. Oh, right. You are, well... You're very anonymous and mysterious.

Yeah. The true horse's mouth. Okay. Thank you. If you need more information than that, then someone can actually help pay for it. Yeah, right. Yeah, that's a pretty solid lead.

But then we've got another mum-a-die in Parmy North who has a blue car, but she says she's seen the number plate. I don't know that we're quite at the

bottom of this yet. I don't think we are. Any other leads we would like them through, we just want to talk. That's it. We just want to

have a conversation. That's it. Come down to the station and have a chat. I'll be good cop. You be bad cop. And are you willing to make a cash offer to purchase

the number plate off this person, Mama Di? How much, Mum? Well, the thing is, I'd like to talk to her because obviously if she's got Mama Di as her number plate, she must be a lovely lady. Are you boasting about yourself now? No, that's exactly what we thought as well.

Okay, we'll keep the case open. Any more leads, you can send them through 9696. We would love to hear from you this afternoon. We won't stop Clint until justice is served. Justice? Well, I don't know. I saw it on the TV show. Bree and Clint.

It's my birthday. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Brie and Clint's Birthday Banger. All right, Birthday Banger for a Monday. If you've never heard this, you guys call us up with your birthdays and then we figure out what was the number one song you would jam into on your 16th birthday. Jess is up first. Hi, Jess.

Hello, Jess. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good. How are you? Oh, mate, I've got a sick one andand-a-half-year-old at home. Oh, no. I'm not the one that's been at home all day.

It's actually my husband, and I'm procrastinating going home. I like it. Hey, well, let's see if we can get a song that'll make you stay in the car just that little bit longer. He'll understand, too. I mean, he's been at home with the sick one-and-a-half-year-old all day, but you can't get out of the car until you hear your birthday banger. Exactly right. So that's fair enough.

What's your birthday, Jess? 27th of February, 1988. You were 16 in 2004 on the 27th of February. And, Jess, this is your birthday banger. Oh, booyah. Booyah. Banga. This is great.

This is a really good birthday banger, Jess. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm pretty sure this is a Friday jam too because it's so popular. For sure. Let's get Annabelle on. Hi, Annabelle. Hi, Annabelle.

Hi there. How are you? I'm good, thank you. That's good. Let's give your birthday banger a whirl. What's your birthday? I'm the 15th of April, 1971. All right.

You were 16 in 1987 on the 15th of April, 1971 Alright, you were 16 in 1987 on the 15th of April And in the 80s, this had a number one hit Lean on me When you're not strong Bill Weathers and Lean on Me God, I love this song This song sounds a hell of a lot older than 87. I think this song ages you even more than it should, Annabelle.

I agree. I remember it being a comeback, I think. Right, it must have been on a soundtrack for something. Did they redo it? Yeah. Yeah, right. I think so. Such a beautiful song, though.

It is a beautiful song. It's a great song, but a bit slow, I think. It is a little bit slow. Beautiful song, not a banger, is that what we would say? Yeah, maybe. 100%. Okay, thanks Annabelle. Oh, Annabelle was so good, I liked it. She's very diplomatic. Jennifer's up last. Hi Jennifer. Hi

Jennifer. Hello. Hey guys, how are you doing? Good mate, how are you? I'm fantastic. Oh great, I love having people like you on the show. What's your birthday? The 12th of March, are you ready? 1957. Oh, great. I love having people like you on the show. What's your birthday? The 12th of March. Are you ready? Yes.

1957. Oh, these are the ones we love, Jen. You were 16 in 1973 on the 12th of March. And, Jennifer, this is your birthday banger. And that's why we love it, Jen. Elton John's Crocodile Rock. Woo! What are your thoughts, Jen?

Oh, I like Jess's. Yeah, I like Jess's too. All right, wait there for us. Jamelia, superstar, Bill Withers, lean on me, Crocodile Rock. I feel like Bill Withers' beautiful song, Off the Table, we're not going to play that as a birthday banger. So who redid that song, I wonder?

I don't know. We'll find it in the break. But either way, even if it was redone, like there's a lot of slow songs out at the moment. We just played that Lewis Capaldi song.

That is true. We need something up, right? So it's out of the other two. It's out of the other two. Now, that Elton John song is a banger and I totally get that.

However, Jess is sitting in her car trying to delay going inside for as long as possible. So if we were to play, we were to play superstar, we'd be doing her a big favour. I want to do Jess the service

of having that little bit more peace in the car. So I think we've got to play yours, Jess. Congratulations. You guys are freaking awesome. Freedom, Jess. Freedom. This one's on us. Sorry to your partner. yours Jess congratulations you guys are freaking awesome freedom Jess freedom this one's on us

sorry to sorry to your partner and of course the sick kid as well they can wait a few more minutes all the best

Because you've got to rise up No matter where you are Zed and Bree and Clint, that's the winner of Birthday Banger. For Jess from Jamelia. It's called Superstar. A couple of clerical errors of Birthday Banger. For Jess from Jamelia. It's called Superstar. A couple of clerical errors in Birthday Banger today. We should not have featured the Bill Withers version of Lean On Me. Because it was definitely not released in the 80s.

Should have been this version. Club Nobu. Makes a lot more sense. Maybe the Birthday Banger computer's got a virus. Yeah, that's definitely what sense. Yeah. Maybe the birthday baby computer's got a virus. Yeah, that's definitely what happened. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe it's come down with something.

Maybe it had a hard weekend. Yeah, just overheated a bit over on the weekend. Yeah, maybe that's what it is. Maybe someone forgot to shut it down for the weekend. Maybe it's been running. Maybe. Maybe it's been running all weekend. Maybe we need to turn it off and on and then blow on it. Yeah, that'll do it.

Also, sorry to the Elton John fans who really wanted to hear Crocodile Rock. I do love that song. I've got Carole Baskin news. Carole Baskin. Killed her husband, Stabbed him. Or whacked him, yeah. They convinced me that it didn't happen. Fed him to tigers, they snack him. What's happened?

We're so good at that song. We clearly know all of the words. Every time I'm like, why do you do this to yourself? Obviously, for those who don't know, Carole Baskin, who shot to fame on Tiger King for allegedly killing her husband and then feed him to tigers they snack on. It wasn't just that. It was the feud that she had with Joe Exotic, the Tiger King. And she won.

Joe's in prison and she now owns Joe's zoo. Did you see that story last week? She took everything from him. He had a plot to kill her. It's a crazy TV series. Spoiler alert. You know what happens now. But it's still worth watching.

And if you haven't watched it, wake up. What are you doing? Like July, dude. Hurry up. We were in lockdown as well. You had nowhere to be. Anyway, she's got a new TV show on the way. Well, maybe if she accepts it.

There's been a big money pitch thrown at Carole Baskin. She's going to be the new Bachelorette. No, not Bachelorette. But you're in the right ballpark because it is a reality TV show. Is she going to be on Fairfactor? No, she's not going to be on Fairfactor. Any more TV shows? Is she going to be on...

Is she going to be the new Teala Tequila? No, she's not going to be Teala Tequila. She's married. Hey, it doesn't mean she can't have a cake and eat it. Carol Baskin has been offered the chance to star in the British version of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here. I wasn't far off. I told you you weren't far off.

No, yeah. Oh, interesting. So we have never had I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here here in New Zealand, but you've had it in Australia. Can you explain the concept of the TV show? So essentially it's where they get a bunch of low-grade celebrities, anyone that they can get for a low cost, and they put them into a jungle. It's true. It is true. They're not getting, you know, like big-time stars.

But, you know, some are pretty decent. And they put them into a jungle and they make them do horrific challenges to where they can win stars, which is essentially food for them to eat. And then the public vote who they want to keep in and who they want to kick out. It's like Big Brother in the Jungle with celebrities. Apart from the voting bit, sounds very, very similar to a TV show that you host. And that's why I'm suggesting that before they get her, you guys go in, you and Matt Chisholm put in a pitch

to get Carole Baskin on Celebrity Treasure Island New Zealand. That's a great idea. Yeah. Can you imagine how good she'd be? She'd be very interesting to watch. I mean, you'd be marooned on a tropical island with a potential husband killer. But apart from that, great TV, right? Great television.

One of our favourite things to do on this show Is have basic bants A bit of basic bants You know where you just discuss little things in life Where we all tend to have an opinion on it But we don't necessarily discuss these things all the time It's you who usually brings them You're the basic bitch in this show

I'm basic I've known that for a while Love a sit, love a lie down Pretty simple to keep me happy the basic bitch in this show. I'm basic. I've known that for a while. Love to sit, love to lie down. Pretty simple to keep me happy. But I did bring this one to the table and we've found out again that you and I disagree, which I'm quite shocked by this one because I figured that everyone just did it the way I did it.

I never really thought that people did it the other way. Typical. You only thought of yourself. No, not in that way. I just had never thought about it. But I said to you, it was a real weird conversation I had on the weekend because we all stayed at the family batch and there was a bunch of us and one of the people that was there slept with the door open

and I found that really strange. Right. And you said. I slept with the door open and I found that really strange. Right. And you said... I sleep with the door open every night. And my mind was blown. Yeah, right. Well... So you...

I understand why you don't sleep with the door open. Why? Because you've got flatmates. Okay. Oh, okay, right. But I don't have any flatmates. So why would I shut the door in my own house? Because it keeps the evil spirits out.

Everyone knows that. Right. Well, I hadn't considered it from that perspective, no. When we had a flatmate, we had the door shut. It's also more fire safe. Is it? Yeah, because it's like another barrier for the fire to get through. Isn't it another barrier for your smoke alarm to go off?

What do you mean? I don't know. I don't want to comment on that because I don't know. Actually, to be honest, I don't know. I don't know how fires work. In my brain, I'm like, I'm going to close the door as another barrier. So we used to close the door because we had a flatmate and it was like the polite thing to do because, you know,

you don't want to keep your bedroom stuff private. But if you don't live with anyone, why wouldn't you keep the door open? I challenge you to try it. It's liberating. When you lived in a flat, when you didn't have a partner, did you sleep with the door open? No. Because I had flatmates.

Oh, we know. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, because you had flatmates. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But are you telling me if you were home alone and you had the ability to sleep with the door open, you'd still close the door? Absolutely.

Why? Because it's my little safe protection bubble. Is it really for evil spirits? Kind of. For the boogie monster? Yeah, kind of. Yeah, right. And because, I don't know, maybe it's something wired in my woman brain.

To close. Oh, I hadn't thought about that. As like a protection guard where I might be able to hear something if they have to open the door to get into the room. God, my wife must feel so safe with me then because she doesn't care. Yeah, because who sleeps next to the door that's open? Oh, make her sleep next to the door. You savage.

I'm just kidding. She does sleep next to the door. She sleeps next to the door, yeah. So wait, she's the closest to the open door? Yeah, yeah. So you don't even protect her? Yeah, because if the baby cries, she's the closest to the open door yeah yeah so you don't even protect it because if the baby cries she's got to get up the podcast with mobile smiles register fill up redeem points for rewards easy if you enjoyed
