Ah, kia ora, everybody. Tolofa lava. Bola vanaka. Konnichiwa.
How do you say hello in Italian?
Buongiorno.
Buongiorno.
Ciao.
No, that's goodbye, isn't it? Or is it hello as well?
Give me both.
Ciao.
Welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast.
Can I ask you a question as a single person?
How do you decide what to have for dinner every night?
I just have whatever I feel like.
Yeah, but sometimes that's more of a burden
than a privilege.
Like, I don't mean to sound arrogant,
entitled, but I do mean to sound blessed.
You never do, but we put up with it.
I never sound like those things.
Thank you.
My wife Lucy is a fantastic cook,
gets home before me every night
and she just decides.
So what do you bring?
I have elements of guilt about that
What do you bring?
Because she cooks every night
A big appetite
No but what do you actually bring to the relationship?
If she's cooking every night
Oh excuse me
What do I bring to the relationship?
No I'm just saying
Fertility
I got her pregnant
That's what she wanted
A baby
And I gave it to her
God you sound like a dick sometimes
I'm the only man who was able to give her that baby so far trust me she could get a lot of other guys um no that's a good
question and i do feel i do feel guilty about it but at the same time i'm a shit cook uh i cook
when i can like if i'm if i've got a week go to fancy dish go fancy dish. I do a really good fish and taties with like a broccoli that's got like a roasted almond.
It's got like bits of roasted almond in it.
A fish and what?
Fish and taties.
Like a pan-fried fish.
Right.
I do a coating with corn flour and this like red spice stuff.
And then I do roast potatoes.
Oh.
So it's like fancy fish and chips.
But you can only eat that so many times.
It's what I was saying to you yesterday
about how a guy will do a good bacon
and egg pie, but that's all they'll do.
Every guy's got one good dish.
My dad does bacon and eggs.
What's your good dish? Producer Ben, what's your good dish?
As a man?
Do you put in more effort than most? Because you should.
I'm not saying every guy Should sit back on his laurels
Like that
And a guy who can cook
God I imagine that's hot
I imagine that's really hot
It is the hottest thing
Yeah
What do you cook
I don't really mind
I can just
I can cook anything
Not too fancy
I'd probably go like
A nice nachos
If I was going to do
Something like that
Yes
That's exactly what I'm talking about
I fucking love you
That's exactly what I'm talking about
But if you put a recipe
In front of me
I should be able to do it It just takes me time If you put a recipe in front of me, I should be able to do it.
It just takes me time.
If you put a recipe in front of me, I could do it on the barbecue.
Fucking nachos.
I could do it on the barbecue.
We ask you what's your fancy go-to dish and he says nachos.
Wait, wait, wait.
What's fancy about them?
I mean, you can do whatever you need to to make them fancy.
Yeah, what are you doing?
Do you?
Wait.
Cheese and sour cream are not fancy.
Do you put it in the microwave? Do you put it in the microwave?
Do you put it in the microwave?
Why would, oh, to melt, to put cheese on it?
Melt the cheese, yeah.
No, I don't even put, sometimes I just.
You don't microwave a nachos.
You microwave nachos.
Yeah, you would if you wanted to melt, if you wanted to melt the cheese.
Your chips will go soggy.
Nah.
Nah, nah, nah.
Put the cheese on when the dish is hot enough.
Nah, nah, nah.
What's wrong with you people?
Nah.
If you really want to melt.
No, you melt the cheese on everything if you're going to put it in the microwave.
Nah, the microwave does wonders for nachos.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Where are you putting it?
What's your go-to?
Oh, yeah, okay, yeah.
Like my fancy stuff.
Yeah.
Well, first of all, first of all, who cooks in your relationship?
You and Sam have been together a long time.
Yeah.
You live together.
Mainly me, but I quite like the control of it.
It's like a control thing for me.
Yeah.
He offers to cook, but I'm like, no, no, no, I'm fine.
You're fine.
But going to BK to pick up the food isn't cooking.
What's your go-to fancy dish?
My favourite would be a nice burrito, which is not even that fancy.
Honestly, you two.
Shit, you should have dinner with Ben.
Hang on, what's Sam's go-to?
What's your partner Sam's go-to?
Spag bol.
Yeah.
You know what I want to do?
This is what I want to do.
I want to put together the men's cookbook,
and it's going to be full of that shit.
Nachos, bacon and pie, fish and chips, burritos.
And the receipts can't be longer than a page.
No.
The recipes can't be too long.
The recipe can't be longer than a page.
That's definitely been done.
You can't add more than five ingredients.
No, I know, but I just...
What else goes in there?
Spagbol goes in there. Spagbol goes in there.
Spagbol is definitely in there.
Those curries where you just put frozen veggies in,
chop up a chicken breast,
and then squeeze that stir fry mix over them.
Is that not...
I mean, that's what I do all the time.
No, it's good.
At least you're cooking.
At least you're cooking.
That's the important bit, right?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
What's your go-to?
We didn't even ask.
Probably Spagbub.
Afternoon everybody. Welcome to the show.
Bree and Clint.
Oh, is it my turn to talk?
Yeah, you gotta say something to start the show.
You can't just walk into it. Imagine this is a room full of people.
You can't just walk in and say nothing.
Imagine we walk in and they go,
Hey Bree! And you're they go, Hey, Bree.
And you're just like,
Oh, did you want me to say something too?
Just do like a nice greeting.
I'm not good at small talk.
Just literally just say hello.
Hello, everyone.
There you go.
Now we're underway.
We're all accustomed.
Good show coming up for you today,
including what we're going to talk about next,
where science reveals which child
is the funniest in the family, right?
Which sibling is the funniest?
First, middle.
Are you happy about it?
Well, don't give it away.
I'm happy for them.
I'm not happy as the...
Oh, so we know it's not the oldest then.
It's not me.
Put it that way.
According to this study, it's not me.
It's not you either, though. Well, now you've given it away. People don't know what's not the oldest then. It's not me. Put it that way. According to this study, it's not me. It's not you either, though.
Well, now you've given it away.
People don't know what order you were born in.
Yeah, true.
People don't care.
People don't know your family tree.
You didn't even say hello to them at the start of this show.
They barely know anything about you.
We'll talk about that next.
This is Anne-Marie, Bree and Clint, ZM.
I will always remember.
Bree and Clint, the podcast, ZM.
We want to talk about a study that's been released.
I'm not all that excited about it
and I don't think you, Clint, are all that stoked with it.
Well, I just don't know if it's true.
Alright, so the study has revealed
that the funniest sibling in a family
is...
..the youngest.
No, I don't know about that.
Now, I'm the oldest of four.
What are you?
I'm the middle child, of course.
So it's not me.
My sister, Lana, is the youngest.
Yes.
And she's pretty funny.
Is she the funniest in the family?
Well, you don't want to give anybody that credit, you know?
You don't want to let them know that they're the funniest.
You don't want it to go to their head.
Oh, this is interesting.
Would you say she's the funniest sibling?
Because there's you and you've got two more brothers and her.
She's the youngest.
They're saying they're the funniest.
Like I said, I don't know if I want to give the credit to anybody.
I don't want to take it for myself,
but I don't know if I want to give it to anyone.. I don't want to take it for myself, but I don't know if I want to give it to anyone.
I don't want to say that.
What about your family?
So my brother's the youngest.
He's definitely the smartest.
He might be the funniest.
I don't know.
Give me something.
He got the looks and the brain.
Why do they say the youngest is the funniest?
Is there any science to it?
Is it because they have to laugh at themselves?
Is it because they've seen their older siblings
go through all the awkward stages of life
and they know how to make fun of it?
Yeah, there's not all that much science to it.
They just said they did test it a bunch of different families
and they reckon out of the families tested,
the youngest sibling seemed to be the funniest.
Why don't we test it out? Why don't we test it out?
Why don't we test it today?
Yeah, let's test the theory on radio.
Oh, because you might be the only one.
Yeah, hell yeah, that's us.
We are crack up.
We're also the best looking and the smartest.
0800 dial ZM if you're the youngest sibling.
Yes.
Okay?
Tell us a joke.
Make us laugh.
Do something funny
we're going to test
your funny meter
like if you're
the youngest sibling
apparently you're
the funniest
if you are
the funniest
we've got a prize
for you this afternoon
alright
okay we'll get you a prize
the funniest
youngest sibling
gets a prize
according to science
this should be easy
for you guys
you guys just
stand up comedies
stand up comedians it Stand up comedians.
Comes natural
to me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh,
a hundred dollars.
We're not salty at all.
ZM Spree and Clint,
the podcast.
A study
is breaking
families apart
because it's saying
that the funniest sibling
out of any sibling
is the youngest.
You're just going
to cause fights
when you put out
stats like this.
You know?
That's what the aim is, isn't it?
At least it's funniest and not best looking or smartest
or most likely to be successful because that would create rifts.
Funny?
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, I could possibly give that.
I think I would rather be, no, the funniest.
We're going to try it out this afternoon live.
We have got a whole bunch of younger siblings on the phone.
Yes.
And they're going to do something funny
they're going to tell us a joke or try and make us
laugh in some way and if they are the funniest
they're going to win a prize today
Radio Science
We're going to go to Darren first. Hi Darren
Hi Daz. Hello, how's it going?
Youngest of how many mate?
Of four. Okay, alright
Give us your best shot
Give us your best joke.
All right, my one-liner.
Why are mountains so funny?
Why?
I don't know.
Why are mountains so funny?
Because they're hilarious.
It's not bad.
I don't mind it.
Hilarious?
Yeah.
You got it?
Yeah, cool, cool.
Hi, Mason.
How you getting on?
Going all right.
How are you getting on?
Oh, not too bad, mate.
Not too bad.
Youngest sibling, Mason?
Yeah, youngest of four.
You think you're pretty hilarious?
Oh, I'm pretty funny.
All right.
Hang on.
Older brothers or sisters?
Both.
Both.
Older brothers and one sister.
Perfect mix.
All right.
Hit us with your best shot.
All right.
When I see people's names carved in trees,
I don't think it's sweet.
I think it's surprising how many people bring nice on dates.
There's more observational humour in his one.
It's very Jerry Seinfeld is what he's going for there.
Break out the Qtometer because Sophie is 10 years old.
Hi, Sophie.
Hi.
Are you the youngest, Sophie?
Yes, I am.
Are you ready to give us your best joke?
Yes.
All right, go for it, Soph.
Why did the dog stay in the shade?
Why did the dog stay in the shade, Sophie?
Because he didn't want to become a hot dog.
It's good.
It's good.
You've got us there, Sophie.
And I didn't see it coming.
Hi, Michelle.
Hi.
You've got a tough job to beat Sophie there, don't you?
How do you beat a cute 10-year-old?
Yeah.
Oh, there's no way that I can beat that.
We've set you up to fail,
but no, no, you're here now,
and you're the youngest sibling, right?
Yes.
How many older brothers and sisters?
I've got two older brothers
and one older sister.
All right.
There's a lot of four.
Yeah, I'm a four.
My sister's the youngest of four.
I'd love to have her as part of this game,
but here we are, Michelle.
When you're ready,
give us your best joke.
Well, it's a riddle, not a joke. Okay. 30 cows in a field, 28 chickens,
how many didn't? 38 cows in a field. No, 30 cows in a field. 30 cows in a field. 28 chickens.
38 chickens. How many didn't? I don't know, Michelle.
How many didn't?
10.
Michelle, it's not a joke.
I said it's a riddle.
Michelle, you have to understand,
we're not smart enough to get that.
I think we're going to give it to Sophie.
Sophie, congratulations.
You've won funniest youngest sibling this afternoon.
Thank you.
That was hilarious.
So very well done.
I like that.
This is DJ Snake.
Because it was in the sun and it was a dog.
It was hot, but it's also like the food.
Staring at two different views of...
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Look, I feel like the riddle from before deserves some more attention.
Was it Michelle's riddle?
Michelle, yeah.
We asked funny siblings to call out with a joke.
She didn't have a joke.
She had a riddle.
I've figured it out.
Would you like to figure it out?
Like, would you like to actually know?
I don't think my, you know, I'm pretty realistic.
My brain's not smart enough.
Relax your mind and we'll do this together, okay?
Because there'll be people who are like,
well, you can't give us half a riddle
and not help us figure it out, right?
So this is what Michelle said.
She said, there were 30 cows in a field,
28 chickens, how many didn't?
Did the cow eat the chicken?
Did they eat the chickens?
It's a good start.
Did they all have a friend?
And there's two left over?
Wait, so 20, 30 cows plus 28.
58?
I don't know!
They didn't what?
They didn't...
There were 30 cows in a field.
Yeah.
20 ate chickens.
How many didn't?
Didn't lay an egg?
See, the problem with the riddle is
cows don't actually eat chickens.
They're not carnivores.
They only eat grass and grain.
So if she'd said there were 30 wolves in a field
or there were 30 meat eating...
So it's something to do with eating.
Yeah.
So I had it right the first time.
But cows don't eat chickens.
No, cows don't eat chickens.
So the answer is 10.
Why is it funny?
Just because it's so ridiculous
Wait, I still don't get it
30 cows in a field
20 of those cows
ate chickens
How many didn't?
8
Yeah, this is a lost cause
Oh no, way, 10.
10.
It's 10.
It's 10.
Zed in Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Live from Hollywood with our man on the ground,
Dean McCarthy.
Spy.co.nz.
Dean, I saw you're not in Hollywood at the moment.
You're in New York, New York.
Oh, my goodness.
I'm in New York City for the world premiere of Us,
which is the new film by Jordan Peele starring Lupita Nyong'o.
Oh, my goodness.
I don't have the audio yet, but I think maybe we should run it tomorrow night.
You've got to hear about this film.
It is terrifying.
Really?
Oh, I saw the ad for this.
Have you seen it?
Yes.
I saw the ad for it on TV and I actually had to change the channel.
It was so scary.
It's that terrifying.
Did Jordan Peele, he did that other really scary movie last year.
Get Out.
Get Out, that's right.
It looked similar to that movie.
And Jordan Peele is one half of Kian Peele, right?
Oh, I don't know.
That's a great question.
I didn't know if he was.
But what I do know, yeah, he did do Get Out, which was such a huge film.
I think he spent $5 million on it, and it made like $500 million.
This film has a lot of the same themes, a lot of the same feel.
It's very, very deep and intense.
And, of course, as always, it has a huge message about culture and things like that.
But he's a brilliant man.
He's a brilliant, brilliant man.
Okay, let's get some news from today as well, including Romeo Beckham has a new girlfriend.
Is that right?
He does.
Here's the reason this is making headlines today.
He is dating Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown,
which is, of course, if you know the show.
I know.
She's so cool.
Isn't this awesome?
Here's the cool part, right?
So Victoria Beckham, his fabulous mother,
she's my spirit animal.
She,
she actually loves Stranger Things so much
that she was the one that apparently
reached out and tried to like tee it up.
That's a cool mum, hey?
That's a pretty cool mum thing to do.
I don't know.
Do you want your mum
organising your girlfriends for you?
I don't know if that's cool.
She's not a regular mum.
She's a cool mum.
She's a cool mum.
I'm just doing the stats here.
Romeo Beckham is 16 and Millie Bobby Brown is 15.
Perfect.
What a cute romance.
Pretty cute.
That's so cute.
Also, what's happening with Paris Jackson?
So here's the thing with Paris Jackson.
There's two sides to this story being reported everywhere.
So apparently, according to different outlets like TMZ,
apparently Paris Jackson was admitted to hospital for
allegedly attempting to take her life.
She was released and then she refused to go to rehab.
However, she's come out saying that it's all lies.
She's like, lies, lies, lies.
That is all complete bollocks.
So it's a very unusual story that's kind of developing.
She's just denying all of it.
And yet all of these outlets are continuing to run it.
So there's both sides of the story.
Sending her some good vibes, though.
We do love some Paris Jackson,
and she's had a very rough couple of weeks.
Can't they just leave those poor kids alone?
She's had a very rough life.
She has had the most bizarre upbringing ever.
So if she can come out even 50% normal,
then she's doing very, very well.
I just feel so bad for those kids.
Okay, that's Dean McCarthy live from Hollywood.
Thank you very much, Dean.
Thanks, Dean. Bree and Clint's Dean McCarthy live from Hollywood. Thank you very much, Dean. Thanks, Dean.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
As you would know, Clint, I have been on the fitspo for about...
A week?
Two weeks.
No, two weeks.
And a week and a half.
Two weeks.
End of this week will be two weeks.
That's a week and a half.
I think I'm already like real fit.
I'm proud of you.
Yeah, you've been going to the gym.
Yeah, I've been going to the gym and I've decided I'm at that point
in my Fitspo career where I've decided I'm going to commit to a marathon.
When you brought this up before, and by the way,
I don't know the details yet.
We don't know what it is. You said when we were planning the show, you go, put it up way, I don't know the details yet. We don't know what it is.
You said, when we were planning the show, you go, put it up there, I'm going to do a marathon.
Wasn't me.
Producer Ellie goes, what, is it an eating marathon?
Damn you, Producer Ellie.
Although I would be good at that.
To which you said, no, it's a proper running marathon.
So I'm all ears.
Tell me about the marathon.
If you're going to do it, I'm going to support you.
Excellent.
I wasn't planning on doing a marathon because I'm a sitter.
I'm not a runner.
Yeah, that's how you got these tailbone issues that you've got.
Exactly.
I'm a walker, not a, you know, not a runner.
But I think the perfect marathon has landed right in my lap.
Is it a Netflix marathon?
It's a running marathon.
Okay.
It's a real, legit French marathon.
Yeah.
Takes place in the vineyards of southwest France.
It's pronounced France, but yeah.
France.
Yeah.
Eight and a half thousand runners usually do this marathon.
It's called the Marathon du Modoc.
That's definitely how you pronounce it.
It's pretty long, but during the marathon,
runners get to eat cheese, steak, oysters,
and sips of glasses of wine throughout the finest French wineries.
Great, so it's an eating marathon like we said at the very start.
It's an eating marathon.
No.
And I love how you go, I love how you go,
now this marathon, it's pretty long.
Yeah, no crap, mate, it's a marathon.
Marathons aren't pretty long.
They are a defined distance.
They're 42 kilometres.
It's why it's called a marathon.
Don't get it twisted. It's not an eating marathon. It's a running marathon in which you do eat along
the way. You can't run a marathon without eating. How do you think you're going to go with a stomach
full of wine, steak and cheese? I just really don't think you've thought this through.
No, I mean, that's what's hooked me in. It does cost £88, but I figure for the amount that I'll eat and drink,
that's a pretty good deal.
No, that's not the cost.
That's how much you gain when you do the wine and cheese marathon.
Right.
Cool.
I said I would support you, and if you do it, I will support you,
but I just don't see it.
Do you reckon I have to do any training?
You know you could just run around the pub here 42 times.
I do that every Friday. Stop it for a drink anyway. I have to do any training? You know you could just run around the pub here 42 times.
I do that every Friday. Stop it for a drink anyway.
Okay, next on the show, we are talking about a new phenomenon,
which is solo honeymoons.
Solo moons.
Solo moons.
You're a newly married couple.
That's what I like to call them, sailor moons.
No, solo moons.
You get married and then you go on holiday without each other.
Sounds like Sailor Moon though, doesn't it?
Kind of, mate.
Yeah, all right.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
The tradition of the honeymoon is dying off.
Is it though?
They're saying people aren't doing it anymore.
Yeah, I think that time one year ago I was just about to go online
and it was the best time of my life.
Okay, well, maybe they're not getting rid of the honeymoon,
but people are saying newly married couples are now,
you know, some of them are going on these things called solo moons.
Now, you need to explain exactly what a solo moon is.
So essentially, exact same thing.
Get married.
Everyone's happy.
And then instead of going on a honeymoon where you go on a trip somewhere together,
you go on a trip separate.
Why the hell would you bother getting married if you wanted to go on separate holidays?
It doesn't make any sense.
You've got to think back to what is the origin of a honeymoon. And I don't know, but I think it's because you didn't traditionally,
you hadn't traditionally done it, you know, it, before you got married.
Had a buffet together.
Yeah, and then you get to go away and it's all you can eat, you know,
in the hopes that you come back pregnant, I think.
I think that's probably where it comes from.
You know, you go and do all that stuff
and you come back and bada bing, bada boom, we've got a baby.
God, that's so quick after getting married.
I know, but that's not it anymore.
Now, you have all this stress of organising a wedding,
pressure, pressure, pressure, pressure,
and then this one big day of love and celebration
and then you ride that wave off into the sunset
and the two of you go and you have a great time
and you bask in your love
for the next couple of weeks.
My sister and her husband,
when they got married last year,
they went on a mini moon
straight after the marriage.
Yeah, we did a mini moon.
Which is like a tiny holiday.
Yeah.
And then they went on a honeymoon
like a couple of months later.
Yeah, we did that too.
Yeah.
I was like,
God, you're milking this thing?
Yeah, well, why not?
Do you want to have another bloody wedding
bloody shower or whatever you call it? This is my advice to anyone
who's about to get married. Milk
it. Milk everything you can.
Oh, they already do. No, no, because you only
do this once. If you do it right, you only do it once.
And when it's over... You have a hen's party, then you have a
wedding shower or whatever you call it. That's not
a real thing. Engagement party.
Engagement party, then you have a bridal shower. Milk it, baby. Then's not a real thing. Engagement party. Engagement party.
Then you have a bridal shower.
Milk it, baby.
Then you have a wedding and then you have a post-wedding celebration.
No one wants to come to your recommitment ceremony in five years' time.
Trust me, they won't want to do that.
Hey, if there's free booze, I'll be there. Yeah.
So apparently this term, solo moon, where you go on a holiday separate,
is getting heaps and heaps of
mentions on instagram so they're saying it's becoming a trend or people also call it a uni
moon why would you need moon solo you need meaning one i just think why and i think more than more
than take it away from the honeymoon perspective i also don't understand couples who go on holiday separately.
I've got friends who have done it in the past.
Yeah.
And the guy's like, oh, bro, I'm off to Thailand.
And I'm like, oh, cool.
Where are you and your missus going to be staying?
I don't mind that.
Her?
Nah, man, this is my holiday.
This is going to be sick.
I don't mind the single holiday if you've got like a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
If you've got a long-term partner, you think it's normal to go on a holiday by yourself? I don't mind the single holiday if you've got a boyfriend or a girlfriend. If you've got a long-term partner,
you think it's normal to go on a holiday by yourself?
I don't think it's normal,
but if there's a situation where maybe one partner can afford it at the time
or maybe someone's got more holiday leave
and maybe one of them wants to go somewhere
and the other one's already been there.
Okay.
Let me pitch you an idea.
Okay.
You and me are together.
Yeah.
Calm down.
That's weird.
Hands off me. And we've been together for three years. Yes. And you an idea. Okay. You and me are together. Yeah. Calm down. That's weird. Hands off me.
And we've been together for three years.
Yes.
And we live together.
Yes.
And I say, hey, Brie.
No, you call me babe.
Hey, babe.
Yeah.
Hey, babe.
How was your day?
Good.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Mine too.
Thanks for asking.
Guess what?
What?
I booked myself a 53-day European contiki.
Yeah, but have we discussed this first?
No, but I'm going on holiday by myself.
No, but you know we discuss everything.
You know in this relationship,
I told you that we should talk about these things.
Okay, sorry.
Yeah, that's fair enough.
Hey, can I please book myself
a 53-day European contiki?
Okay, can I come?
No.
No, but you're missing what I'm saying.
You're missing what I'm saying.
I think I'm not missing it at all. I'm saying. I think I'm not missing it at all.
I'm saying.
I think in principle, that's exactly what it is.
What if you said, hey, I want to go to Thailand.
Let's go.
And I said, oh, I can't really afford it right now.
Yeah.
And I don't really have the holiday leave.
Don't worry, babe.
I'll shout you because you're my girlfriend of three years
and we live together.
And I want you to.
God.
I don't want to have these life-changing experiences
by myself anymore because you're my partner and I want to do these things with you.
It's only half an experience if I can't share it with you.
God, you talk some crap.
Maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe this is the first time in my life that I've been wrong.
And you can prove me that way if you like.
0800 dial ZM this afternoon.
Do you go on holidays by
yourself? Are you in a relationship?
Are you in a relationship and do you take
solo holidays? I think in the generation
we live in, this happens.
Okay. What's it like?
Is it awkward? And why?
And why do you do it? Because I think there's
certain circumstances where I think it's fine.
Okay. Holidays by yourself
when you're in a relationship.
0800 dial ZM.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
There are some crafty people out there.
We're talking about the concept of going on holiday by yourself.
I've said it and I'm open to the feedback.
I think it's weird.
I think when you're in a long-term committed relationship
to go on holidays by yourself, I think it's weird.
Why are you booking a holiday by yourself?
Depends on the situation, I think.
Does depend on the situation.
And depends on the relationship.
It depends on the relationship.
But as a practice, I'm not booking, like I really want to go to the, I really want to
go like lots of places.
I want to go to India.
What if?
I don't want to go and see the Taj Mahal by myself, take my own selfie and then send it
to Lucy, my wife, and go, look at what a great time I'm having.
What if you're super, super keen on skiing
and you want to go on a ski trip
and your partner had double knee surgery
and can never ski again?
What do you do?
Just never go skiing?
Well, that is a weird scenario.
I'm just saying.
She can sit in the chateau.
She can sit in the chateau.
No, as if she wants to come and sit there.
She doesn't want to ski anyway.
She can go to Fiji or somewhere tropical. I'd love to go to Fiji. I'll go to Fiji too. I'llows. No, as if she wants to come and sit there. She doesn't want to ski anyway. She can go to Fiji or somewhere tropical.
I'd love to go to Fiji.
I'll go to Fiji too.
I'll compromise.
Hi, Lisa.
Hi.
Solo trips.
What do you think when you're in a relationship?
No, I think it's fine, to be honest.
Yeah, I agree.
Again, it depends on your situation.
But my husband's actually going over to the Northern Territory
in a couple of months, and it's not my kind of holiday, so I told him if he wants to go, he can go.
Who's he going with?
Well, since I said no, one of his friends is going to go with him.
Is he going to Ayers Rock?
I have no idea.
Lisa's, like, checked out.
She's like, I said I didn't want to go.
I don't think you heard.
She could not care less about the Northern Territory.
I said I didn't want to go.
Exactly.
Yeah, no, somewhere up the top first. No, so does that
mean Lisa you get to go on a trip?
He did say that
and I probably will hold him to it one day
but we do go on holidays
together but I kind of think it's one of those
things where if you really
want to do it and the other
person doesn't want to do it, well...
See, that's a good relationship because you guys talked
about it first and then you're like, well, I don't really want
to go, but you can still go.
Absolutely, and I think too, because we've got,
we've been married, and we've, well,
we are married, sorry, and we've got three children,
and so it's a bit of a,
you know, if both of us go, it's
double the money, and then you've got to try and find
people to look after the kids, and...
You don't want to take bloody children to the Northern Territory either.
Children, no. Okay, alrightritory either. Children, no.
Okay, alright, interesting perspective.
Hi Zoe. Hi, how's it going?
Solo trips when you're in a relationship,
yes or no?
Yes, and I agree that
it depends on the situation.
Yeah, and what about you, have you done this?
I've done it twice.
Okay, and what was the situation?
I've never been overseas, so I only, I travelled to Australia a it twice. Okay, and what was the situation? I've never been overseas
so I only, I travelled to
Australia a couple of years ago and
it was just too hard basket to try and get him
to sort of passport and
get him to save some money so I just booked
flights and went myself. See, this is
the situation. He's too useless
and you want to go. So yeah, I'm down
with that one. I'm not waiting forever. Yeah, I can get
on board with that Zoe. I think that's good.
Can I make it clear that I'm not talking about
boys trips and girls trips, by the way?
Because I did realise after I said this
that each year I go to Australia
for the Bledisloe with my mates.
Every single year.
Without Lucy, my wife.
But that's a boys trip.
It is kind of counted.
That's a boys trip.
It is kind of counted, though.
And if her and the girls want to go to Thailand for that,
that's different.
I'm talking about by yourself.
I'm talking about going on like a trip, like a Contiki type thing by yourself.
No, Contiki's out of it.
You can't go on Contiki if you're in a relationship
because we all know what Contiki's really about.
Making friends that last forever and having hashtag no regrets.
Am I right, Contiki fam?
Thank you.
Shut up.
And things that sometimes come back from the trip.
Hi, Kayleigh.
Hi.
Last one.
Solo holidays when you're in a relationship, do you do them?
Yeah, I'm not from New Zealand,
so I still go around New Zealand every now and then
and see a little bit more than even my partner's seen.
But he lets me go.
He doesn't mind at all.
How long have you guys been together?
Like a year now.
And why don't you take him with you?
A lot of it is just because it falls in the middle of the week.
My day's off too.
And it's like way cheaper.
So I kind of just do it.
You can't wait around forever, mate.
Yeah, no, that's fine.
Thank you, Kaylee.
I appreciate that.
She's a tourist as well.
That's different.
No.
That's different.
That's different.
You've all completely missed the point.
She's living here. You agree with me on the Contiki point, so you agree with me overall. That's different. No. That's different. That's different. You've all completely missed the point. She's living here.
You agree with me on the Contiki point, so you agree with me overall.
That's all we'll take from this.
I am right.
No way.
I am right.
No one changed my mind.
That's all we'll take from this.
What a great day.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
We bring you this afternoon a public health update.
There is a terrifying new disease on the spread
that we need to alert you to.
It is so rampant at the moment
that even NASA have got
involved because
we are witnessing
the outbreak of
space herpes.
No, you didn't hear that wrong.
Space herpes.
The final STD frontier.
Now, there has been a rise in the number of astronauts contracting herpes in outer space.
And I don't know about you, Brie, but I don't want regular herpes, let alone space herpes in outer space. And I don't know about you, Brie,
but I don't want regular herpes, let alone space herpes.
That sounds terrifying.
If even an astronaut can't fight it,
if even the power of NASA,
the people who put a spacecraft on Mars,
if they can't beat space herpes,
what luck do me having some ointment and a Q-tip have fighting this thing?
Mate, I don't
think you're going to have to worry. Why?
Because I don't think you're ever going to go to space.
No, but I might hook up with an astronaut.
I mean, if my wife becomes
an astronaut and goes to space. You've got
a wife? Yeah, I know, I know, I know.
She could be an astronaut though. Probably not a problem
for you in the near future, I would say.
Do you want some stats? Yeah.
53% of
astronauts on short-term
space shuttle flights are
now showing signs of herpes
according to NASA's
lead researcher. 53%.
That's half. That's over half.
Why?
It's because, one, the stress
of space travel that it puts on your
body. You get stressed out having to man a spacecraft
and worrying that you're going to end up like Sandra Bullock
and gravity the whole time.
It's very stressful.
Yeah, because that movie's super accurate.
Yeah, well, mate, have you been?
There's that part of it.
Also, they're saying that the effects of zero gravity on the body
have a suppressive effect on the body's immune system.
So it means that if there is a risk of herpes, the body have a suppressive effect on the body's immune system.
So it means that if there is a risk of herpes, your body is less able to fight it off because there's no gravity or some shit.
I literally didn't understand a word of that.
Basically, you get tired and your immune system goes down when you go out into outer space
and you get closer to having herpes.
What I'm wondering, who's the one astronaut who took it up there?
Who's the one that took it up to the International Space Station?
And I bet they're real good looking too.
And then they just started, they gave it to one person
and then you get bored in the International Space Station.
Kind of like that movie with Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt
and they wake up, they're the only people on the spaceship.
Like you're going to end up doing it with someone on the space shuttle, right?
And then you end up sharing around space herpes.
There is a movie that's been
released recently where they pick up
like an outside organism and they
bring it onto the spaceship. Was it space herpes?
I don't know and then it breaks
out of the space container and just starts
killing everyone. Right, see now you're
on board mate, now you're thinking.
So that has been a Bree and Clint
public health warning. Just be aware
if you are looking to go to space anytime soon,
our advice is pack some protection.
Also, let the force be with you.
And let the force be with you.
That's the latest update on Space Herpes.
Breeinclint, the podcast.
ZM.
The Australian Senator Fraser Anning, is that his name?
Yes.
The guy that Egg Boy egged.
The politician who said those awful things
after the Christchurch terror attacks
and then in retaliation, Egg Boy cracked an egg on his head.
I don't know.
You know, 1.3 million people have signed the petition to remove him from Parliament in Australia.
Yeah, and so they should.
He used a horrific, terrible tragedy to push his own agenda that, you know,
why use that situation, like, just terrible? Well, people are doing the right thing when it comes to Fraser Anning,
including your national airline, Qantas,
who have said they are looking to remove his access
to their equivalent of the Kuru Lounge.
So I don't know what they call it in Australia,
probably the kangaroo pouch.
The Qantas Club.
Or the joey hole or the...
Just the Qantas Club.
I don't know what you guys call it.
I don't know what you call it.
The Qantas Club.
Koala Club? Could it be Koala Club? Qantas Club. I don't know what you guys call it. I don't know what you call it. The Qantas Club. Koala Club?
Could it be Koala Club?
Qantas Club.
Maybe the Roo Room.
Maybe the Dingo Den.
I don't know what you guys call it.
Maybe the Croc Cave.
I don't know what it's called in Australia.
The Qantas Club.
Yeah, no, we don't know what it's called.
But they've said that they're looking to remove his membership
effective immediately. He has access to remove his membership effective immediately.
He has access to
the Chairman's Lounge,
which you get if you're a
politician, apparently. If you are a politician
for Australia, because it's the National Airline,
they let you in and they're saying, no, actually, we don't
want you in here. Qantas are great for stuff like
this. I remember a couple of years ago, there was
a, she was a famous
tennis player back in the day. Her name was Margaret Court. I mean, what are the odds ago there was a she was a famous tennis player back in the day
her name was margaret court i mean what are the odds she was a tennis player it's great it's good
anyway she's either going to be a tennis player or a lawyer yeah well exactly she came out and
she said some horrible things about uh the rainbow community um when quantus pretty much put their
support behind the LGBTQ community
in that time.
Yeah, yeah.
And she goes, well, I'm never flying with you guys again because of that.
And Qantas were like, good.
We don't need you.
Yeah, ban her from the Kuru Lounge as well
or whatever the Qantas version is called.
Again, the Qantas Club.
Yeah, we've got no idea.
Maybe the Platypus Parlour?
I don't really know.
They'll have some name for it. ZM Spree and Clint, the Qantas Club. Yeah, we've got no idea. Maybe the Platypus Parlour? I don't really know. They'll have some name for it.
ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
Hello, you've reached Bree and Clint's sicky hotline.
This is the sicky hotline where we call places that we definitely don't work
and try and get the day off.
Last week I had to call MacPack.
And I said, you needed the weekend
off because you wanted to climb Everest.
What's your name? My name
is Franco.
Okay. I'm really
sorry. I don't know what you want from me, Franco. So very
sorry. I don't know what you're doing here with this call
as well. Like, I'm really confused about it.
Sorry. Yeah, it didn't go great. This week
you're going to call Pandora.
Now, I know you've got a Pandora bracelet. Only one charm, though. Only go great. This week, you're going to call Pandora. I love that place.
You've got a Pandora bracelet.
Only one charm, though.
Only one charm.
Producer Ellie's got a full Pandora.
She can't fit anymore on her Pandora.
She either needs another Pandora or a bigger wrist.
Yeah, you don't want to open up that Pandora's box.
That's for sure.
What's my excuse?
You can't come in today because you've lost one of your Pandora charms
and you need to look for it.
You need the whole day to look for it.
And it's the charm your mum gave you when you got your first Brazilian wax.
Hello, good afternoon, Pandora.
Kessler, King Hawk in the house.
Hey, Kath, how are you?
Hi, is this Anne?
Yes.
Yes, good, how are you? Not too bad. Anne? Yes. Yes, good, how are you?
Not too bad.
Hey, I'm so sorry to do this to you.
Who's on rosters?
Me.
Great.
I actually need to move one of my shifts if possible.
Who is this?
Anne.
Huh?
Anne.
Sorry, it's a bit loud.
Who did you think it was?
Shannon. Yes. You're Shannon, right? Yeah. I, it's a bit loud. Who did you think it was? Shannon.
Yes.
You're Shannon, right?
Yeah.
Our ISM?
Yes.
What shift?
Which shifts did I have this, like, in the next coming weeks?
No, no, no, no.
I don't.
Are you Shannon?
Yeah.
Why would you have shift with us?
I don't get it.
I'm lost.
Wait.
Maybe I've gotten confused, but they told me that one of the girls had to have this Saturday off
and they needed someone to cover.
Are you Shannon, our RSM?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
Are you Shannon?
Yeah.
Hang on, I'm really confused.
Do you want to talk to Dorothy?
Yeah, put Dorothy on.
RSM means regional store manager.
She has to...
I think she's interested in my style like Shannon.
Hello?
Thank you.
Hey, Dorothy.
Hi.
Hey, how are you?
Good, how are you?
Not too bad.
Hey, I think there's just been some confusion,
so I don't have to do anything this Saturday.
No, not that I am aware of.
You're welcome here, but not that I'm aware of.
Okay, great.
I've actually, this is a nightmare.
I've actually lost my, you know, maybe you haven't seen it before,
but it's like my most precious charm and I've lost it.
I have no idea where it is and I'm on like a real big hunt for it at the moment.
Oh.
Yeah, it's the charm that my mum gave me and, oh, it's just a nightmare.
She's on my back about it and it's just a really significant charm
and then, you know, I don't have any days off
and Saturday I was going to just drop everything and try and find it, you know?
Yeah.
Not that I know of.
You should call New Lynn.
Okay, maybe I should call New Lynn.
Yeah.
My mum's going to be stoked.
She's coming over to help me look for it.
It's the charm she got me when I got my first Brazilian wax.
It's stupid.
It's a joke between her and I, but it obviously, you know, is special to me.
Yeah, of course.
Well, hopefully I don't have to work at New Lynn, but that's great.
Good to talk to you, Dorothy.
I'll see you guys soon.
Okay.
Oh, yeah, I'll see you next week, right?
Okay, cool.
See you then.
Oh, hang on, hang on.
Kath wants you.
Okay, cool, cool.
Put Kath back on.
Hi, Shannon.
Hi, Kath.
I'm just really confused.
No, I think we figured it out.
I think it's New Lynn.
Oh, okay.
So that's my bad.
I'm so sorry, Kath.
You were probably thinking, what is she crazy?
Is she going crazy or something?
But I think it's New Lynn, so I'll call those guys.
You don't even sound like how you normally talk.
I keep asking, are you sending?
Are you sending?
Yeah, I do have a bit of a cold.
It might be that.
Oh.
That's all right.
Can I ask you a few things?
Are you free for me to ask you a few things?
I actually – can I call you back?
I actually just need to go because I just need to double check if I'm doing the New Lynn shift.
Okay, okay.
You can call me back when you're free then.
I'll call you back.
Okay, sweet.
Okay, bye.
Okay, bye, Kath.
You know what?
Because I enjoyed that so much,
I'm going to give it to you.
Yes, she's got it.
I'm going to give it to you.
Yes.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Ariana Grande has posted on her Instagram
that she is getting her tattoo
that she got with Pete Davidson, not covered up.
She says not covered up, but she is dealing with it in some way.
So her and Pete got what I think is matching tattoos, right?
They both got always tattooed on them when they were together?
In each other's handwriting.
Ah, is that what it was?
Yeah, they got like several tattoos together.
That's nice. That's a nice
thing to do.
Except they aren't together anymore
and they weren't for always.
They were engaged. They were engaged.
Yeah, they were engaged. I'm not taking
anything away from that, from the relationship,
from the growing through
different relationships, you know. I agree with the song.
Thank you, next bitch. But
these tattoos are a permanent reminder of that thing.
It's interesting because there was an episode of Maths,
Married at First Sight, that was on in the last week or so
where Martha, one of the contestants on that show,
she went to a tattoo removalist place to get her ex's name removed off her buttock.
It's lucky you can do that these
days. But I've talked to some people who are like
I'll just get it and then I'll just get
it taken off if I don't like it. It is
not easy to get it removed. No. Did you know
they use a laser to cook the
ink out? They burn the ink from
underneath your skin. You know it takes like
12 sessions? And apparently it's
way more painful than getting the tattoo in the first
place. But it doesn't mean you can't do it.
Like if you have property of Lisa tattooed above your junk,
you don't have to keep it.
Like it doesn't have to be forever.
I just always thought, I thought the rule was that
if you get your partner's name tattooed on you,
it like curses the relationship or something.
That's what I thought.
I've never heard that, but I definitely think you are tempting fate
when you do that.
It puts that added pressure on it.
Oh, big time.
Yeah.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand did it.
They got those matching tattoos.
Remember?
Yeah, I remember that.
And that didn't end well.
I dated a guy once who had his ex's name tattooed on his ribs.
What was his ex's name?
Sarah, maybe?
Oh, yeah.
What, you were thinking it was my name so it was all good?
Well, you know.
That would have just been creepy.
If her name was like.
I would have been like, this is the first time we've met.
If her name was Bobby and he had just a big B, you'd be like, oh, that's.
That's for me.
That's for me.
No.
And he could, because then he could just exclusively date girls with that initial somewhere in
their name and he could get around it.
I mean, it cuts down the dating pool, but I mean.
Name your first kid Ben, you know,
and then you can just say, yeah, that was for Ben.
I always knew I was going to have a Ben.
Or he should just date Sarah's from now on.
Oh, yeah, because it was Sarah.
Yeah, whoops, I forgot that bit of the story.
We want to know this afternoon, do you have an ex tattoo?
Doesn't have to be their name.
Doesn't have to be a name, but did you get a tattoo for your ex?
Did you guys get matching tattoos?
Yeah.
Do you still have it?
Have you covered it up?
Did you get it removed?
Maybe.
Or are we taking ones where they're still together?
Did you get an ex with your partner?
Are you still together?
I'm more interested in the ones that have broken up.
I'm more interested in the breakups. broken up I'm more interested in the breakups
I'll take it if you're together
Yeah, we'll be like, oh, congratulations
When are you guys breaking up?
But mainly exes
We just want the ex calls
0800.ZM
Do you have an ex tattoo?
Is our question for you this afternoon
ZM Spree and Clint
The podcast
We're asking you this afternoon, New Zealand
Have you got an ex tattoo?
Do you have a tattoo that you got with an ex-partner,
someone you're not with anymore?
It doesn't have to be their name.
It could just be something that you got together
or because of them that reminds you of them.
I don't know what the calls are going to be,
but some of the text messages, I mean, buckle in because...
Chuck me a little sampler.
Go on, give me a little appetiser.
Here's a sampler.
A little taster, go on.
I got my ex's birth date tattooed on me for a Valentine's Day present.
We broke up and a few years later I started dating one of his mates.
He hated it so much I ended up getting it covered over just for him.
We're also not together now.
It would only be better if you went back to the first boyfriend whose name you covered up.
God, and you wanted to take calls from people who are still together.
That is no fun.
Hi, Jennifer.
Hi.
Did you get a tattoo with your ex?
I didn't get one with my ex.
What did you get?
So I got a tattoo with all of my family's initials on it,
and obviously he was my family.
But me and my sister have got the same tattoos.
Wait, so you...
Wait, what?
So he's your partner, and so then you get mum, dad,
all their initials, and you just, because you were with him,
you chucked him into the family.
Yeah, so it was, well, at the time, you chucked him into the family. Were you married? Yeah, so it was
well, at the time, he'd been
in our family for seven years. We were married.
We had a child.
He seemed pretty
long-term. And did your sister
get his initials in her tattoo as well?
Yes. Oh, no!
Oh, no!
What's the initial?
SM. Okay. Well, you've just What's the initial? S-M.
Okay.
You just got to find someone with those initials.
Yeah, you just got to go find a Sam Mathis or something.
Well, funnily enough, I've got, it's only early,
but I've got a new partner and he's got the same initial.
Yes!
It's a happy ending.
Oh, that is brilliant.
Oh, that is absolutely ridiculous.
Hi, Rochelle.
You got an ex tattoo?
Yes, I've got my ex's name across my lower back.
Oh, girl.
Oh, girl.
Oh, girl.
The most intimate of locations for one's name to be tattooed.
Whose idea was that, Rochelle?
That was my idea.
Okay, let's find a saving grace.
Is it in Chinese lettering?
Is it in hieroglyphics so you can't tell? Not at all. It's in a saving grace. Is it in Chinese lettering? Is it in hieroglyphics so you can't tell?
Not at all.
It's in purely English writing.
I mean, it takes a few activities off the table with new partners.
What's the name?
Harley.
Harley.
Oh!
No!
Yes!
Just buy a Harley Davidson.
Buy a Harley.
Yes.
And you're good to go, Rochelle.
And then you can say things like, ride a Harley.
Yeah.
You're fine.
Surprisingly enough, I'm now engaged to a new guy.
Yeah.
And he looks at that tattoo and says, if he didn't screw up,
then he wouldn't have me.
So he uses it as an icon to kind of treat me better.
Oh, you've got a good one.
Rochelle, that is one of the weirdly most beautiful things
I have ever heard in my life.
Oh, Rochelle, do you want another text?
Yes, please.
There's a few really good ones.
This text, I can't even really decipher what's going on,
but they've said, I got matching tattoos with my ex
and a couple that we were making sandwiches with.
Wait.
In Inverting Cobbers.
You got a group activity tattoo?
Yes.
Who on earth thinks that's forever?
So apparently the tattoo stands for four friends
who make sandwiches together.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And apparently the two friends then got together afterwards
and they were in love and they orchestrated the whole thing.
One last one.
No, I want to take more.
We've got to take more than that.
Hi, Brittany.
Hey, how's it going?
Tell us the story, Brittany.
Ex-tedu, what do you got?
All right, I don't have it, but while I was dating my ex,
he got a name on his wrist, and the name was Belle,
and he told me that it was for the Beauty and the Beast character
because he was the Beast, and he found his Belle, and blah, blah, blah.
Turned out that his Belle was not me.
It was actually the girl that he was cheating on me with,
and now we broke up, and they're together,
but he's got her little nickname on his wrist.
Brittany, this is some of the, I'm sorry for that for you,
but this is some of the juiciest shit I've ever heard.
Not a problem.
Her, I don't know, gain, maybe her loss, I don't know.
Are they still together?
Definitely not her gain if he's doing that stuff.
No, I think they're still together, yeah. Who really cares,
right? Oh my god.
How brazen are you to get
the tattoo of the person you're cheating with
on you when you're still dating
the other person? You'll know if they're still together
because when you see him, he'll probably have his next
affair on his other arm.
Three more names.
How many things can you have on your body?
Oh god.
Thank you Brittany
That was very very good
We gotta take some more
This is so good
At least one more
We'll come back
Okay we'll come back
I'm into it too
I'm into it as well
I want
I wanna know more
Alright

Bree and Clint
The podcast
ZM
Oh man
ZM Bree and Clint She's done it ZM. Oh, man, ZM, Bree and Clint.
She's done it.
It's a fitting song, isn't it?
She was the start of this conversation, Ariana Grande.
She is just, she says she's not covering up,
she's evolving her ex tattoo.
The tattoo she got with Pete Davidson.
The one that says always.
We've been asking this afternoon,
did you get a tattoo and are you now not dating?
This has continued.
This is now stretching over a longer period because these stories have been too, too good.
There's too many good ones.
There's something to be said for living in the moment and just going with it and going,
yeah, they were a part of my life.
But then at the same time, like, do you want a big David tattooed across your chest when you...
Get a bird or something.
Get matching birds.
Hi, Rob.
Hello, mate.
Yeah, so a quick one. I was in the UK many years ago. I picked up a girl, went. Get matching birds. Hi, Rob. Hello, mate. Yeah, so a quick one.
I was in the UK many years ago.
I picked up a girl.
We went back to her house.
And she got naked and all down both arms and across her back.
She had all the guys' names.
But the strange thing about it is she had them literally crossed out as well.
So tattooed, crossed out.
And she said they're all her past conquests.
No, wait. Wait a minute, Rob.
She had her list on her body.
Yeah.
I mean, Alicia.
Down both arms and her back.
Dave, Rob, just without being too graphic,
what did you have to do to get on the list?
Like a one-night type thing and you're on the list?
I don't know.
I liked it.
Are you on the list? No, I'm not on the list? Like one night type thing and you're on the list? I don't know. I liked it.
Are you on the list?
No, I'm not on the list. I didn't want to be on that list.
Devastated.
Unless it's a list of guys that were too scared to spend the night, in which case
you are definitely on the list, Rob.
Hey, Laura. Hey, how's it going,
team? Good, Laura. Do you have
an ex tattoo?
Well, I've actually got two different
tattoos to two different men.
Good on you. Laura! Nah, good on you.
I know, I never
learnt my lesson, did I, the first time?
What do you got? Yeah, what are they?
Well, I got married when I was
quite young, so when I was 20.
So I got a little
saying in French on my shoulder blade.
That's okay.
So that's okay.
And I don't see it every day, so it's whatever.
Yeah, it's behind you.
That's fine.
It's behind, it's really behind me.
And what was the second one?
Yeah, and then I've got my ex-partner's name.
I just got drunk in Hawaii one time, as you do,
and got his name under my boob. No, not as you do.
No, as you do.
As you do.
Under your boob?
Yeah.
Well, the good thing, Laura, is the older you get,
the harder it will be to see that tattoo, if you know what I mean.
No, I've got small perky titties, so that's never going to happen,
I don't think.
Okay, one more.
One more. This is one of my favourite phone topics of all time. Caitlin, one more. One more.
Right side of things.
This is one of my favourite phone topics of all time.
Caitlin, do you have an ex tattoo?
I don't personally,
but my ex-partner's got my whole face tattooed across his shin,
from his knee down to his ankle.
Do you look like any famous person?
No, it actually genuinely looks like me, so I
feel sorry for it. He's up a
certain creek, isn't he?
It's fine. It's just one
trip to the tattoo parlour to add
devil horns to the top of you
and like... I've been waiting for it.
It's been three years and I've seen it a couple
of months ago and it's still just my face
sitting there.
He's like, nah, that's Jennifer Lawrence.
Yeah, weirdly, he's got a new habit of wearing knee-high socks.
I don't know where it came from, but it's his favourite new item to wear.
Okay, there you go.
Thank you, New Zealand.
That is X Tattoos.
All right, we're going to take your birthdays, put them into the system here,
figure out what was number one on your 16th.
And we're going to have a better one than yesterday, by the way.
Let's hope so.
We're going to have a better one than yesterday.
Maroon 5, Nico and Vinz, and Achy Breaky Heart.
All right, let's do it.
Today is going to be good.
I can feel it.
Hi, Lauren.
Hi, Lauren.
Hi.
What's your birthday?
March 15th, 1990.
Okay, Lauren, you were 16 in 2006 on the 15th of March,
and on that day, this was number one.
Oh, yeah.
What's the year?
2006.
Yep.
TV rock.
This guy is the creepiest sounding guy when you listen to him,
but it's quite a good song.
It's a tune.
Yeah.
Do you like this?
Do you remember this?
Yeah, vaguely.
Vaguely.
Okay, that's a contender.
That's definitely already better than yesterday.
Hi, Josh.
Hi, Josh.
Josh.
Josh?
Yep.
Joshy boy.
Hey, man.
What's your birthday, Josh?
January the 1st, 95.
Okay, Josh, you were 16 in 2011 on the 1st of January,
and this is your birthday banger.
The man, the myth, the legends, Guy Sebastian,
who's that girl?
Yeah.
Oh, is that all we're going to get out of you, Josh?
Yeah, that's a terrible birthday banger.
Okay.
Okay.
Hang on, are you guys into an accent, though?
Do you know who Guy Sebastian is?
I've heard of him.
Okay, all right.
He's not lovely.
I think the power's lost on him.
That's all right.
Last one is Jessie.
Hey, Jessie.
Hi, Jessie.
Hey, guys.
What's your birthday?
The 20th of July, 91. Okay, Jessie, you were guys. What's your birthday? The 20th of July, 91.
Okay, Jessie, you were 16 in 2007 on the 20th of July,
and this is your birthday banger. Oh.
Mr. Titty Pindergrass, T-Pain.
You've got bartender.
How do you feel about that?
Pretty good.
It's pretty good. I was devastated
when he pulled out of Friday Jams last year.
Yeah, I was keen to see him.
He had, I think, bereavement in the family
and he couldn't come. That's a great song.
That is a great song. Okay, we have
three. We've gone from three stinkers
to three good songs in the space of a day.
All playable. What do you want?
No, what do you want? No, what do you want?
You made me go first yesterday,
and then you forced me into playing moves like Jagger,
so today you can go first.
I just love the weird ones that we get,
so I'm voting for TV Rock.
Oh, yeah?
It's a toss-up for me between TV Rock and T-Pain,
just because that T-Pain song is so good as well.
But when are you going to hear TV Rock on the radio?
Never.
Never?
Ever.
Cool, let's do it.
Here we go.
Oh, yeah.
Lauren, you win birthday banger today.
Yes, Lauren.
Here you go, taking you back to 2006.
This is TV Rock, and it's your birthday banger on ZM.
Brie and Clint.
I see you walking in the club.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
This is big.
I've come up with a stitch-up idea that I think all of you are going to love.
Hmm.
It's not on anyone here.
No.
It's on Big Gay Al.
It's on Big Gay Al, who's been on our show a few times,
one of my best mates who's recently moved over here to New Zealand.
Yes.
He's been on the show for a few questionable things.
He works here at the same company as us.
Yes, he works here at the same company.
And last night he had a work phone
and I noticed that he was Googling some questionable things.
I can say what he was Googling because I was helping him.
Yeah.
The question was, do porn stars wear makeup when they film porn?
And what kind of makeup, all that kind of stuff.
Where do they put it?
I thought it'd be great to stitch up Alan this afternoon
if we got someone, and I mean a fake person from IT,
and that person is Lucy who's sitting over there.
Hi, Lucy.
Hi.
To pose as Angela from IT to call Alan to tell him that he's in breach of company policy for what he's been googling on
the company phone. Lucy you usually make the coffee here. Today you will be Angela from IT.
Let's do it. Ready to go. Oh, my God.
Hello.
Hello.
Is this Alan Shepard?
Yeah.
Hi, Alan.
It's Angela Hunt here from the IT Services Department here at NZME.
How are you going?
Hello.
How are you?
Yeah, good.
Thank you.
Just quickly, I thought I'd just give you a little bit of a heads up, really.
We've just been doing a bit of an audit as part of company policy on cell phone usage.
I understand you have a work phone, don't you?
Yeah, I do, yeah.
Sorry, this is a little bit sensitive information here,
but we just actually had a couple of security breaches come through on our network from your phone.
Okay.
Just a couple of red flags that have come up,
just with a bit of material that's coming through Google.
Porn stars.
Yeah, it's a bit of a tricky one because I work in content and it's relevant to content of the show.
So, yeah, it's a bit of a weed line.
I wasn't looking, like, for my own use.
It was content for Interval Ace, which probably seems really out of context. Yeah, I mean, that doesn't really matter because unfortunately it is
company policy that
we do pull you up on these things.
We will need to
disable your phone for the
next 24 hours just while we complete
our audit and do a report on that.
Okay.
So what does that entail?
I can't make phone calls then?
So basically no internet access.
We will be disabling that on your phone.
Okay.
You will be able to still make calls and text messages,
but nothing internet related until we just sort of get that sorted,
do a report, and we will need to talk to you.
Okay.
Was there anything else?
Just a couple of websites.
A couple of the titles looked a little bit not too great.
So you might want to just sort of keep an eye on that.
If it's all right with you, can you email me?
Because I wasn't aware that you guys are auditing our content so heavily.
No, no.
Is that available?
Yeah, I completely understand.
And there will be something, company policy, that we can send through to you, absolutely.
Is there anything else
that we should be aware of?
No, I've got
Tinder on my phone, which I'm
going to delete off.
And Grindr as well. And obviously I receive
images that I don't open.
Apps don't, they do
come through. We
do have one under Grindr.
Can you tell me a bit about that?
I haven't seen one before.
It's an application on the phone.
It's like a Tinder equivalent for gay.
But I've had a phone for two weeks now.
So this is two weeks of, I believe, a breach of privacy.
Sorry, I'm not directing this at you.
No, no.
Yeah, if you can just calm down.
I mean, I am just
trying to, I'm just passing on the message
at the moment. The website history,
it wasn't explicit images or anything. It was just
an article that I read
in terms of the relation to the
content in which we're talking about. So that's what it was there.
Okay, I understand that.
We'll put that in an email to you now and we'll be
in touch. Thank you. Whereabouts do you
work in this building in Auckland?
Yeah, just up on Level 2.
Okay, cool.
Angela Hunt.
Cool.
Thanks, Angela.
I'll talk to you soon.
Okay.
Thanks, Alan.
Thanks.
Bye.
Call him back.
Call him back.
Call him back.
He's going to call his manager.
He's good at this.
Lucy.
I believed you.
You were that convincing.
I mean, Angela.
Okay. Okay. I'm going to You were that convincing. I mean, Angela. Okay.
I'm going to call back as Angela.
Hello.
Hi, Ellen.
It's Angela from IT.
Is this a f***ing prank?
Oh, legit.
I just pulled Totten's for a meeting and I'm going off my...
Hello, Ellen.
It's Gavin here from IT as well.
It's Angela and this is my manager.
This is my manager, Gavin.
We just need to talk to you about your grinder searches.
Oh, my God.
He hung up on us.
He hung up.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Last night, the reason we were hanging out with Ellen
was because it was
pasta night.
I thought it was going to come in stronger.
It's going to be like a big energetic
Italian, like... This is nice too.
What's the matter you? This is nice too.
We went
to producer Ben's house.
So his wonderful
girlfriend Steph. The sugar mama.
The sugar mama who owns the house that Ben lives in.
Yes.
We should name Ben too.
She gives him an allowance.
How much do you get on the allowance?
Just call him the moocher or something.
He doesn't like to talk about it.
Yeah.
I think he makes up for it in other ways.
Right.
If you know what I mean.
Gardening.
Yeah, gardening.
Indoor gardening.
That's beside the point.
Sorry, we're getting sidetracked.
Steph was cooking pasta. Steph was cooking pasta.
Bree was cooking pasta.
It was a good old-fashioned pasta off.
There were several judges in the room.
My beautiful wife, Lucy.
Ellen was there.
Producer Ellie, Producer Ben.
We were all there for the pasta off.
And we were supposed to report back today
with who does the best pasta.
And I'm going to say now,
I don't think I can judge it.
I don't think I can call it.
They were completely different. I mean, Steph say now, I don't think I can judge it. I don't think I can call it. They were completely different.
I mean, Steph, very, very good.
Steph, very good.
You, very good.
You did your Nona's spag bol recipe
from the old country.
Classic bolognese.
As far as bolognese goes, wonderful.
I mean, mine could have been a bit saucier,
but wonderful.
I had so much extra sauce if you wanted it.
I know why you had extra sauce because it was not on my plate.
But it was good.
It was delicious.
It was delicious.
You're so rude.
Just a little dry.
And Steph, Steph did a spicy fennel sausage, like ragu type.
What would you even call that?
It had like fresh coriander on top of it
and like a block
of parmesan
that you could
grate directly
on top of it
and then she did
these beautiful
roast potatoes
as well
well we can tell
who Clint thinks won
well no no
I said I can't judge
I can't pick it
and because my wife
is vegetarian
she did these
like it was so
thoughtful of her
she went over and above
and she did special
ravioli
just for Lucy
vegetarian mushroom
ravioli
we actually both cooked that oh and then she did a walled off salad she did special ravioli, just for Lucy, vegetarian mushroom ravioli. We actually both cooked that.
Oh, and then she did a walled-off salad.
She did like a pear and walnut and blue cheese,
fresh rocket salad, which was, oh, it's delightful.
And, yeah, like I said, there's fresh parmesan on the table.
And Brie did a bolognese.
So, like I said, it's too hard to call.
I wouldn't want to call it.
It's too hard to compare. The thing that conf to call it. It's too hard to compare.
The thing that confuses me is, like, you always say you're vegetarian,
but you were eating all of the meat dishes last night.
That's the part that I was mostly confused about in everything.
Can you explain that to us?
Yeah, I think I've reclassified.
I'm more flexitarian.
Look it up, flexitarian.
Or bullshit artist.
What I think it does prove is we need to have another one.
We need to do this again.
So I'm thinking same time next week, pasta off round two.
Same time next week?
This time you get home court advantage.
You just want to eat more pasta.
That's what's going on here.
Some would say.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Maybe bad news if you're travelling to Thailand this weekend.
Okay.
Because there will be an alcohol ban that will run from 6pm on March 23rd until 6pm on March 24th.
An alcohol ban in Thailand Yes
Are they also banning fluoro clothing
And singlets that say Cheng on them
No bing tangs
They probably have good reason
Why are they banning alcohol for the weekend
It's actually really interesting
So the reason is there's an election
In Thailand And it's taking place on March 24th.
And that's pretty much the reason.
They don't want their citizens to vote drunk.
So get this right.
Alcohol was also banned for 24 hours last weekend ahead of the elections on the 16th and 17th of March.
Yeah.
Right.
I've just figured out how to win the Thai elections.
You know why?
Do you know why they're banning them?
Yeah.
They ban alcohol, though?
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, why?
So it came in last year, in 2018, because there was, this is crazy.
So parties and that would take people out And like buy them heaps of drinks
And alcohol and try and win people's votes over
Yeah
Oh like political parties would
Yes
Genius
Like I said to you I've just figured out how to win the Thai election
How?
So it's this weekend
Right now if you're running
Announce emergency policy that says
If we're elected
We will abolish alcohol free voting days
And next election
you'll be still allowed to drink
bada bing
bada boom
all of a sudden
you're the president of Thailand
easy as that
am I right?
am I right?
am I right?
you're a genius
I should run against Jacinda
I should be a political strategist
call Winston
I've got some great ideas.
