Hi everybody and welcome to the Brian Clint Podcast.
Look, we're quickly recording this because Producer Ben, who puts a podcast together,
isn't here at the moment.
He's gone out to do something else, so he won't hear what we're saying on this.
He'll hopefully just lift this audio bit, drop it in, splice it together,
bada bing, bada boom, we're away and laughing.
You know he listens to it.
No, he doesn't listen to the whole podcast.
No, he just tells you that.
This is my idea.
So tomorrow is Producer Ben's birthday, okay?
He thinks we've forgotten it But we haven't
Well we definitely haven't forgotten it
He thinks we're respecting his wishes
Because what did he say to you this morning?
I don't celebrate my birthday

If you listen to this now
and it's currently the 20...

Yeah,
his birthday's the 27th
but if you want to do this
on the 26th,

Okay,

Or just give him an ad.

And then the microphone turned off.
No way.
Oh, crazy, man.
Here's the podcast.
Zed Ams.
Let's go.
Now let me see you dance.
Zed Ams.
Brie and Clint.
Good afternoon, everybody.
Brie and Clint, welcome to the show. We won't be introducing the show today.
Our good friend and wonderful songbird, Mama Di,
is going to sing us in this afternoon.
Oh, God.
My mum.
She's got some pipes on her.
Mama Di, take it away.
Stop watching.
My neck is flossing.
Make big deposits.
My gloss is popping.
You like my hair?
Gee, thanks. Just bought it.
I see it, like it. I want it.
I got it. I want it.
I got it. I want it.
I got it. I want it.
I got it. I want it. I got it.
You like my hair?
Gee, thanks. Just bought it. I see it.
I like it. I want it. I got it.
I thought you were playing my mum.
That sounded like Ariana Grande.
That was Ariana Grande.
Ariana Grande.
I reckon I've listened to it 43 times.
I still can't get through the whole thing without losing it.
The bit where she goes, you like my hair.
Gee, thanks.
Just bought it.
She's like, I see it.
I like it.
I want it.
I got it. I got it. She's like, I see it. I like it. I want it. I got it.
I got it.
If you want to see the video of my mum doing Ariana Grande,
well, that didn't sound right,
you can go to Instagram or Facebook.
It's up there right now.
Don't clarify because some people want to see that video
regardless of how they interpreted what you said.
Hey, today we've got a fun show lined up for you.
It's all going to plan,
the Venute, the half van,
half ute that you purchased from Blenheim
without ever seeing, the $3,000
monstrosity that we don't know if it's road
legal. Best decision I ever made.
Could be here. I mean, well, actually
let's wait till we see it, then I'll decide
if it was a good decision.
It is due to arrive at the ZM
headquarters at 5 o'clock.
And look, I know everybody's busy,
but if you do want to come down for the big reveal, you're welcome.
ZM headquarters is at 2 Graham Street in the city in Auckland.
And we'd love you to be there for the big moment.
We'd love it.
We'll do a lap.
It's 5 o'clock for the Venute reveal.
Next, though, who's in the market for a good news story?
You want a happy story?
Me. What about a happy
story to do with dogs?
Mate, you know what I'm like with dogs. There you go.
I'm obsessed. Everybody needs a little bit
of this in their life, so I'll bring
you happy dog news
next. Bree and
Clint, ZM.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. I promised you before
a happy dog story.
Are you ready for it?
I'm ready.
That's not a dog.
That's a man.
No.
It's a wolf, really.
How about this?
Here you go.
To my trained ear, that is a Rottweiler.
No, this is a real story about a real happy dog story.
Okay, Charlie is a golden retriever.
I'm already bloody into this story.
And he is blind because he has glaucoma and had to have both his eyes removed.
Poor Charlie.
Poor Charlie.
How old is he?
Charlie is 11 years old. Oh old and now he's blind.
So Charlie's family have adopted another dog to keep him company
so that when they can't be with him and because he's blind,
he doesn't get upset,
they've adopted another golden retriever called Maverick.
So wait, Charlie has a seeing eye dog.
Charlie.
The Labrador. No, golden retriever. Golden retriever. Yeah. Has a seeing eye dog. Charlie. The Labrador.
No, golden retriever.
Golden retriever.
Yeah.
Has a seeing eye dog.
Called Maverick, correct.
Well done.
You've figured the happiness out of the story.
So Maverick is a four-month-old golden retriever,
just like his big buddy.
He's a golden retriever as well.
And Maverick already knows that Charlie is blind
or can't see what he's doing, that he has something there.
So Maverick leads Charlie around the house.
God, they're smart.
Aren't they smart?
When they're playing as well,
he knows that Charlie will sometimes lose his toy.
So if he does, then he'll go and get Charlie's toy for him
and put it back down in front of him so he can keep playing with it.
See, I need to get myself a maverick.
Well, oh, in your life, you need a maverick in your life.
Yeah.
You need a seeing eye dog in your life.
I'd love any dog.
I'll take any dog.
You know, there's a big difference between being blind and being lazy, eh?
What about those dogs?
What about those dogs where people aren't blind but they have like a service dog?
Service dog, yeah.
What service do you require?
Well, I don't like flying very much.
No, so the dog would keep you calm?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Could I get one of those?
Well, you can actually.
You just have it all the time.
Yeah, you just tell the airline that you've got a big problem
and that the dog would really help.
I mean, I think you'd have to book the dog an extra seat.
That's okay.
Because there's not much leg room.
That's okay.
That would be fine.
Charlie and Maverick have an Instagram account.
You can follow them.
They're called Charlie and Mav, at Charlie and Mav, and they've got 95,000 followers.
You know what would tip that story off?
What's that?
You're not going to get this reference, but if they named, if Charlie's name was Goose.
Oh, because of Top Gun.
You haven't seen it, but like I told you, I know what happens.
Planes and stuff.
Click on that link and you'll, I know you guys can't see this,
but this is Bree seeing Charlie and Mav for the first time.
Charlie kind of looks like he's dead in that photo.
Well, it's because he's got no eyes.
Oh, he's so cute, though.
Yeah.
Look at him.
There you go, New Zealand.
I promised you a happy dog story, and I've given you a happy dog story.
I really wanted to do something this afternoon off the back of this dog story
where I wanted people, you guys, to call if you've got a dog with you right now.
Yeah.
And if they can bark on command,
I wanted the dogs to have their say this afternoon on our show.
So we'll get them on.
Yes.
And then you put the phone down to the dog.
Yes. And then you tell it
to do its business.
Not do its
business. Oh, if
you've got a dog that can poo on command
that's more video
content but this afternoon Bark On Demand.
0800 dials it in right now
hopefully we just need
one. Can your dog bark on command
and we'll put them to air this afternoon.
Get your famous. Your dog could be famous
this afternoon.
You never know, mate. If your dog can
talk, we've got a prize for you
as well. We've got a prize. 0800
dial ZM. Let's get some dogs on.
ZM Spree and Clint. The podcast.
Told you a heavy dog story before.
I'm
so keen for this piece of radio we're about to do.
We talked about Charlie and Maverick, the golden retrievers.
Maverick is Charlie's seeing eye dog because Maverick can't see anymore.
And because of that, we want to talk about other super talented good boys and good girls.
We wanted to get dogs on this afternoon just to have their say.
We never ask the dog listeners of the show to call up.
No, we don't, no.
We thought this afternoon.
We always offer them to text.
But they never do.
Exactly.
I mean, it's their paws.
0800 dials at M.
Can your dog bark on command?
And what do they have to say this afternoon?
First up, Producer Ben, we're going with Sue.

Lots of talented dogs.
They're already going here.
Anne, hi.
How many dogs have you got there?
I got one.
Normally she talks like absolutely on command,
but when I said talk just now, she was dancing on her back leg.
She got it completely wrong.
She was sleeping and I woke her up to talk,
so she's not very happy with me at the minute.
Let's get some details.
What is the name of the dog?
Her name is Rose Petal.
Rose Petal, yep.
Rose Petal, and she's a Shihon,
which is a

She's like, don't you let me down.
You were barking before.
We're going to one more.
And this person is standing by with 15 dogs.
15 dogs.
Sophie, how the hell do you have 15 dogs?
Oh, well, me and my partner just rescued a lot of dogs
and the collection's just grown over the last 10 years.
Sophie, can I come visit?
Yeah, sure.
So these are all your dogs?
Yeah.
How much do you spend on dog food a week?
Oh, I try not to count.
Nah, good idea.
What types do you have, Sophie?
Oh, a big range.
We've got like Bichons and Shih Tzus,
Rottweilers, Golden Retrievers.
Okay, you've got everything.
Here we go.
This is going to be a dog chorus.
How many talk on demand?
Oh, pretty much all of them.
We just do a wee hand gesture
and then they go,
I'll just have to go out
to the backyard.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah, you go out there.
Oh my God,
this is going to be mental.
Let us know when you're out there
before you start.
Okay.
Oh.
Oh, wait.
It's clearly getting close.
Do you have any cats?
Yep.
You do?
You have cats too.
Okay.
Standing by for 15 dogs.
That's one.
Have you started, have you?
Hang on.
Oh, no.
Takes a lot to wrangle all 15.
Oh, no, this is good stuff.
We're going to wait around.
Yeah.
Have you, again, Soph, have you started?
No, I think we're underway.
They're all over the show.
No worries.
We can hear them.
No worries. You know what? They've done over the show. No worries. We can hear them. No worries.
You know what?
They've done a great job.
Sophie, when did you change your name from Cruella de Vil?
Let's get some spy.
Live from Hollywood with our man on the ground, Dean McCarthy.
Spy.co.nz
Dean, are you a fan of the Venute?
The Venute on route?
I'm dead.com.
It is absolutely, I'm living.
I want it for my wedding.
I'd like to get lowered down from the helicopter
onto the back of the Venute.
Yeah, you'd look really good in it too.
Honestly, you and I could crisp white gown
in the back of that fire engine red van.
It would be a sight to see.
That would be a vision.
Hey, Dr. Dre has been caught up in this whole university scandal thing in the States, right?
Celebrities paying to get their daughters or their kids into university.
Yeah, here's the deal.
It's actually a really fascinating story.
It's taken some twists and turns.
Here's the deal, right?
So Dr. Dre came out saying, oh, you know, my daughter got into USC
very fairly,
not like these other kids
that have bribed their way in.
But then, of course,
it was revealed that he bought
a $70 million wing
for the school.
Right.
But look,
it's like an art school wing
that he and his wife
have paid for as a donation.
And all of a sudden,
his daughter also got accepted.
You've got to admit, though, she's going to be very highly considered if your dad had just bought a $70 million wing for the school.
And the other part of it's so funny.
She went on Instagram today going, here's dad dragging me to USC, kind of making out like she didn't even really want to go.
But it's funny.
It's hilarious.
But I don't know.
He's not going to get in trouble or anything like that.
But it's interesting that he would come out saying that, you know,
she's not involved when people are like, uh, 11 mil.
The bigger part of this scandal, I think, Dean,
is there's rumours going around that he's not even a real doctor.
What?
Like, I don't want to throw anybody under the bus here,
but I've heard murmurings, Dr. Dre, not a real doctor.
I bought these Beats by Dre headphones thinking
he had a degree. No,
you can't use those in surgery. No
way. Like I said,
rumour at this stage.
From one
legendary hip-hop producer
to another, Kanye West is
throwing his own spiritual retreat?
Yeah, he is. So every
weekend in LA,
this is really fascinating, on a Sunday,
this is very unusual but fascinating.
He's throwing a Sunday school
for spiritual
worship gatherings.
So basically, he'll get a big choir one week
and then he has all these kids singing
and things like that. So every single week, it's
literally Sunday school, but with Kanye West. And you have to like all these kids singing and things like that. So every single week, it's literally Sunday school,
but with Kanye West and you have to be a mega,
mega superstar.
So Katy Perry was invited last weekend.
Orlando Bloom was there,
all the Kardashians.
And every week it's moving to a new location.
On the weekend,
the cops came because it was too loud.
Not,
there's rumors that it was like shut down.
It wasn't,
it was just very,
very loud.
They were worshiping,
probably worshiping Kanye.
It was Kanye worshiping Kanye and the Lord.
Sounds like VIP church.
And I don't know if that's how church is meant to work.
Like, you can come, but only if you have over 4 million Instagram followers.
Does that mean on a Sunday, if I have a party at my house,
but I call it, you know, Sunday worship,
does that get across the line with my landlords or?
All you have to do is.
I'm in the venue.
Yeah.
I'm in the venue.
No, I don't think we put Bree Sunday activities and motor vehicles in the same situation.
We are going to christen the venue though, if you know what I mean, Dean.
Whoa.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
That is Dean McCarthy, our Hollywood correspondent.
Live from where?
Live from where?
Live from where?
Live from where? LA from where? Live from where?
LA.
Live from Hollywood.
Spires brought to you by Snacks.
And I'd love to tell you about them.
They are delicious.
That's right.
They are yum and yum.
They come in lots of flavours.
Yum, yum and yummer.
Snacks Crunches is what I was trying to tell you.
Flavour with the right amount of crunch.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. We're going to get you an Flavour with the right amount of crunch.
We're going to get you an update on the Venute right now.
I bought a van.
No, you bought a what?
A van slash ute.
Yeah!
We bought a Venute!
The Venute is coming and everybody's charming. It doesn't have a warrant and it is full of rust.
There is an update. It's no longer and it is full of rust. There is an update.
It's no longer full of a lot of rust, only some rust.
Just to fill you in, just in case,
this is the van that you may have seen go viral.
Every radio station, every news site in the country
was posting about it about six weeks ago.
It's a red half Toyota HiAce van, half ute.
We spoke to the guide, Jeffrey, in Blenheim on our show
when the venute was going viral, and I said to him,
is it still available for purchase?
And he said, someone has said that they want to buy it,
but I haven't got the money yet.
So I swooped in, bought this stupid thing with my own money,
and now we own it.
You transferred him $3,000 on the spot.
Okay, well, all right.
And today will be the first time you ever see it.
$3,000 six weeks ago for a van you'd never test driven,
never seen apart from photos.
And not a lot of photos either, by the way, about six.
It's here.
Well, we know it's in the Auckland region.
I feel like, you know, you can just tell when something's a good idea.
Right, you're a car whisperer.
I'm a car whisperer, and I knew I didn't have to see the Venute
to know it was a good purchase.
Sound investment.
Yep.
Yeah, most cars depreciate.
Not this one.
It's going to go up in value.
We're going to cross now to the Head of Transport and Logistics,
Producer Ben, for a live update on exactly where the Venute is.
Producer Ben, come in.
Hey, guys, can you hear me?
Yeah, we can hear you.
Whereabouts are you?
Right here.
If you look to your left, right here.
Oh, you are.
Good to see you.
Can we get a location update on the Venute, please?
Yeah.
See where you guys are standing right now?
Yes.
It's about two levels below you.
It is in our basement, ready to go.
The Venute is here?
It is here.
Oh, it's like Christmas.
We're in the same building.
Can you smell it?
Yeah, it smells like... It smells like desperation. It smells like oil's burning. Oil is here. It is here. Oh, it's like Christmas. We're in the same building. Can you smell it? Yeah, it smells like...
It smells like desperation.
It smells like oil's burning.
Oil is correct.
It's not good.
Okay, okay, great, great.
That means we can do our 5 o'clock big reveal.
And if you would like to turn up and be a part of it,
you're welcome to if you're in the Auckland region.
We're on Graham Street in the city,
the street across the road from the big Les Mills.
If you meet us down by the...
Post office.
Post office outside there at five o'clock,
then you can see the Venute with us for the very first time
when we see it for the very first time.
We're taking this thing on the road, if you didn't hear.
We're taking it on a road trip.
The Venute will be en route to a place near you.
Yeah, big roadie coming up.
As soon as we, you know, check that it runs.
Get a wharf.
Figure out how to drive a column shift.
Register it. Get some tyres wharf. Figure out how to drive a column shift. Register it.
Get some tyres for it.
Check the rust.
Make sure it has an engine.
Oh, we could install some curtains too.
That would be nice, but we'll get around to it.
We'll get around to it, all right?
That's the Venute, en route to a town near you.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Okay, new announcement this morning
out of the Apple Corporation of California
about what their next big thing is.
And they do this. They have a big development and then
they always say it's going to change the world. Used to be
Steve Jobs' job and now
it is Tim Cook's job. Robo-dogs!
Now that would
change the world. Wouldn't it?
But do we need robo-dogs? We've got enough
real dogs. Real dogs are way better.
You can train a real dog to do anything.
Do you know you can train dogs to sniff cancer?
Yeah, I know.
There's cancer sniffing dogs.
They're so intelligent.
Suck on that robo dog.
Yeah.
And you don't need to charge them.
And robo cop while we're at it.
You don't like robo cop?
Nah.
Nah, robo cops would be good.
Because then you could use them instead of actual policemen going into harm's way.
Yeah, I like that idea.
It wouldn't get pulled over by a RoboCop
though. Very hard to talk your way out of a ticket
with a robot.
I cannot be persuaded by boobies.
Your cleavage
has no power over me.
What if I show you my nuts and bolts?
Oh yes.
Malfunctioning. Oh yes.
I have a Robo erection.
Okay. Functioning. Oh, yes. I have a robo erection.
Okay.
Do you want to know what the new Apple thing is?
Yes.
Okay, let's get Tim Cook. Well, I know, but let's tell everyone else.
Okay, okay, ready.
Let's get Tim Cook, or as Donald Trump calls him,
Tim Apple, to tell you.
We feel we can contribute something important
to our culture and to society through great storytelling.
So we partnered with the most thoughtful, accomplished and award-winning group of
creative visionaries who have ever come together in one place to create a new service
unlike anything that's been done before. Apple TV+.
It's a streaming service.
Whoop-de-doo.
It's like Netflix.
He's like,
We can contribute something to society.
This has never been done before.
Netflix.
And Lightbox.
Oh, and Neon.
Stan.
Oh, Stan.
That's the Australian one.
Amazon Prime.
Yes.
Yeah. It has. Yes. Yeah.
It has never been done before.
So it's another streaming service.
You're saying you think it'll be crap.
No, I didn't say that.
I said I think it'll be annoying because as everybody gets one,
they'll all have something good.
And you're the one who'll suffer because you're going to have to get them all.
This is what I don't like at the moment about Netflix.
Loved Netflix for a long time and for a long time it was just Netflix
so that they were the only streaming or the big streaming service.
The thing I don't like about Netflix these days is that because Netflix
is making all this money and they're starting to make all these TV shows that are, you know,
made through Netflix and they've started to make movies.
Yeah.
So they're paying less for like the really good classic movies
or the blockbusters and they're just putting all their Netflix
crappy movies on there.
Well, Apple are going to do the same thing.
They've already spent, before launching,
they've already spent $2 billion on content creation.
They rolled out some big names at the launch.
They had Oprah, Steven Spielberg, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon,
Steve Carell, Jason Momoa, bloody Aquaman was there.
Of course they're going to be there.
Big Bird was there.
They want to be on the streaming service.
Yeah, they do.
But do you understand what I'm saying?
Yeah.
If someone else launches a streaming platform and they're like,
it's only $15.
Yeah, it's only another $15 or whatever it is.
And you know the Apple one's going to be more expensive.
This is what I want.
I just want my normal TV.
Give me Sky so I can get my sport and stuff.
And then one that's got all those streaming things on it.
Just one.
If you guys can all come together and just put it on one,
that's what I want.
What does this remind me of?
Oh, first world problem. That's what it reminds me of. That's the I want What does this remind me of? First world problem
That's what it reminds me of
That's the big announcement
ZM Spree and Clint
The podcast
Do you want $1000 in cash?
More than that
I need $1000 in cash
You definitely do at the moment
I am so broke at the moment
With these renos
So much debt

Is crazy at the moment too
I'm not.
Excuse.
Excuse.
Moi.
Anyway, a TV company wants to pay someone $1,000 in cash
to watch all 20 Marvel Cinematic Universe movies back to back.
Sign me up.
I'm your guy.
How great is this? What an awesome thing to back. Sign me up. I'm your guy. How great is this?
What an awesome thing to do.
So it's ahead of the massive movie that's,
it's the end movie that's coming out.
Avengers Endgame.
Yes, next month after Captain Marvel
that happened a couple weeks ago.
So they want to get someone to watch them all back to back
and yeah, they want to pay you a thousand bucks.
So do you have to watch them in order that they came out?
Yes.
Or the order that the fans say you should watch them in
to follow the story?
So I think it's the story.
Oh, okay.
I think.
I'm not sure.
Because they were released out of sequence.
Yeah.
You'll have to look into that.
But I do have the order.
Do you want to hear the order?
The order that you should watch them in?
Yes.
Yeah, sure.
I've done my research.
Yeah.
This is the order that you need to watch the Marvel movies in for Avengers Endgame, which
comes out next month.
Cool.
So you've got to start off with, hold on, wait.
This is real tiny.
There's so many.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
So you've got to start off with Captain America, the first Avenger.
Then you've got to go to Captain Marvel.
Then you've got to go to Captain Marvel. Then you've got to go to Iron Man.
Then you've got to go Iron Man 2, Thor, Hulk the Incredible, Avengers,
Iron Man 3, Thor the Dark World, Captain America, The Winter.
Soldier.
Soldier.
Guardians of the Galaxy.
Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2, Avengers, Age of Ultron, Ant-Man,
Civil War, the Captain America Civil War, Black Panther, Spider-Man Homecoming,
Ant-Man and the Wasp, Doctor Strange, Thor, how do you say that?
Ragnarok.
Ragnarok.
What did you say?
You've done your research.
Avengers Infinity War, which will bring you to Avengers Endgame.
Fantastic.
What a great job.
What a fun thing to do.
I did read there was a catch.
What's the catch?
So you get $1,000 to watch all of those.
Yeah, so you have to live tweet as you're watching the marathon,
which is fine.
That's easy.
And you have to be at least 18 years old and live in America.
Oh.
Why didn't you tell us the America bit at the start of this dumb story?
I only just read it.
I'm just working it out.
I think that's
45 hours of film
at $1,000.
It's not bad.
It's $22 an hour.
That's alright.
And it's pretty easy work,
right?
I mean,
yeah.
Yeah.
I'd do that.
Yeah.
Well, you don't do it.
You don't know how to say
Ragnarok.
I hate the Thor movies.
Alright, mate. Bree and Clint. The podcast. You don't know how to say Ragnarok. I hate the Thor movies. All right, mate.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I went to a wedding on the weekend.
Beautiful wedding.
Stunning wedding.
God, how many weddings do you go to?
It's wedding season.
Honestly.
It's wedding season, mate.
Give me a break.
Plus, as soon as you hit 30, by the way, it's wedding, wedding, wedding, wedding, wedding.
Nah, I don't have any friends.
I didn't say that.
I didn't ask. I went to, wedding, wedding, wedding, wedding. Nah, I don't have any friends. I didn't say that. I didn't ask.
I went to one in Raglan and it was stunning.
My good friends Christy and Meeks got married.
You know those marquees that you can get now and they're completely clear on every side?
Have you seen those?
Wow, the flash.
And I bet they cost a fortune, but they were cool and I had a great time and it was a fantastic wedding.
Was it sweaty in there, though? No, it's ventilated at both ends. Oh, okay. It could be. I know what you're saying. And I bet they cost a fortune, but they were cool and I had a great time and it was a fantastic wedding.
Was it sweaty in there though?
No, it's ventilated at both ends.
Oh, okay.
It could be.
I know what you're saying.
It could get very sweaty. You do want ventilation.
Like imagine if it's like a little bit like the humidity's up
and it steams up inside like a car on a wet day.
I just picture wearing like an all plastic see-through suit
and that wouldn't be good for anyone.
No, it wasn't like that.
No, okay.
And I want to tell you a story that the groom shared in his speech
about when he asked his now wife's father for her hand in marriage.
Okay.
So you know the tradition of the guy going to the dad and say,
I'd like your permission to ask for your daughter's hand in marriage.
I did it.
It's a very old school thing.
I imagine some ladies might do it now
if they're looking to pop the question first.
You don't have to do it,
but I think it's a quite nice thing to do.
He went to ask and he went all the way out there.
Her dad lives way out of town on a farm,
drove all the way out there especially,
pulled up for a beer and he goes,
oh yeah, let's go and have a beer and have a chat. The dad took him out to one of the
sheds and went to the beer fridge, got him a beer. And you've got to remember that this
guy is quite a beer guy, like Meeks, the guy who was asking for the hand in marriage, quite
a beer aficionado. He knows his beers. The dad of the lady he wants to marry pulls out
these two beers and brings one over to him, hands it to him, takes a sip,
and he goes, oh, something's a bit off with this.
The beer had expired three years ago.
Oh.
Yeasty.
Yeah, it would have been like.
It wouldn't have been great.
And as a guy who appreciates good beer, you would have been like.
Was the dad liking it?
He didn't say.
And I reckon it was like a move from the dad,
like a, you drink this beer.
If you want to ask to marry my daughter,
you bloody drink this old, rotten three-year-old beer
and don't complain.
Don't you dare complain.
And if you do that, then you might get the yes.
I don't think that's what he was doing,
but that's a move that you could pull.
You could pull that move.
He got the yes, obviously, went ahead.
Great wedding, great day, great result.
I thought you were going to say,
he got a no, but the wedding still went ahead.
It was a great success.
The dad wasn't there.
No, that's what I want to ask this afternoon.
And we might not get anybody on this,
but did you or your partner ask the parents for permission to marry their son or
daughter and did you get a no did they say no when you asked when my sister's husband because
my sister got married last year her husband simon uh asked my dad which they were quite close because
my sister and her husband were living with my parents for quite a
while yeah so they knew my parents obviously very well yeah simon did and he was real nervous and he
took my dad down the farm and he said asked him you know i'm gonna ask amber to marry me
my dad told me just to take the piss my dad looks straight at him and goes, nah.
And then didn't say anything for about 10 seconds.
And you know what?
As a father, that's your right to mess with someone like that. Good gear, Dad.
Not to hold out forever, but that's your right, you know?
Very good, big Steve.
Who does this jumped up little prick think he is coming in here trying to marry my daughter?
That won't be happening. What would you say? You'd just go. Who jumped up little prick think he is coming in here trying to marry my daughter? No. No.
That won't be happening.
What would you say?
You'd just go.
Apparently, Simon was like, oh, oh, um, um, and then just shit himself.
Oh, it's okay.
I don't have to marry her.
0800 dial ZM.
Did you get a no from the in-laws when you asked to marry their daughter or son?
You can text us also on 9696.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Did you ask the in-laws if you could marry their kid or child
or adult child and they said no?
You know, like that magic rude song.
You say I'll never get your blessing till the day I die.
Suffer love, my friend, but the answer is no.
Why you gotta be so rude? The exact situation is what we're looking for this afternoon.
Ono 800 dial ZM.
Martin.
Kia ora.
Hi, Martin.
How you doing?
Did you ask the in-laws and they said no?
Oh, I did.
I asked twice.
You asked twice?
The dad?
I asked twice.
Did you go to the dad?
No, I couldn't ask dad.
Dad's unfortunately not with us. But I asked mum the first time and she said no.
And I thought, okay, that's a bit funny.
Why did she say no?
What was her reason?
No idea.
Just what?
Just flat out no, I don't have to explain myself to you, Martin.
Pretty much, pretty much.
And so I thought, all right, well, maybe it's a little bit too soon
So we were together eight months before I decided to ask her
So it was a little bit early
Yeah, I can see that
A little bit early
Yeah, so how long did you wait?
So I waited another three months and then I asked again
And I thought, and she said no
And I thought, no, this is just, this just seems a little bit crap
God, you're eager, man
Oh, well, I had the ring already.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
So what?
You did it anyway?
So I bought the ring in April.
Yeah.
And then I asked in August.
I thought, bugger it.
I'm just going to do it.
So on our one-year anniversary,
she organized a photo shoot for our anniversary.
I contacted the photographer and I said,
this is going to happen.
So I got a free engagement shoot out of it, which was good.
Oh, the mother who said no organised an engagement shoot for you guys.
No, no, no.
My fiancé did.
Oh, right.
She organised the photo shoot for our anniversary.
And are you still married now?
Five years later, we're still yet to be married.
But we decided to buy a house.
That's why she said no, Martin,
because she knew you couldn't pull your finger out and get the job done.
Or you didn't get married because she still said no.
It's going to happen.
It's probably going to happen fairly soon.
It's going to happen.
No, we believe in you.
Martin, can we get her?
I can't say too much.
We should get her mum on the phone,
and you should ask her on the radio again.
That'd be a hoot, wouldn't it?
That'd be a great time.
Hey, if you're keen, our producer will
get your number and if you're keen, we'll get you
back on. Great text on this. Did you ask
for their hand in marriage and the in-laws
said no? Someone's texting and said, because
my dad had passed away when
we were younger, my husband asked
my mum and she said
to him, are you sure?
Are you ready to take my
daughter on? She's stubborn, hard-headed and Are you ready to take my daughter on?
She's stubborn, hard-headed and talks too much.
WTF, mum.
Come on, mum.
This is my ticket out, mum.
Jeez, what about this text?
It says, my brother-in-law asked my dad for my sister's hand in marriage. Not quite sure how he asked, but dad got the wrong end of the stick
and said, not bloody likely.
Hey, Aaron, did you ask and got told no?
Yeah, so my now fiance for about four and a half years is Japanese.
Yeah.
So different culture as well.
I'm like, no, you're not marrying my daughter.
Yeah.
Yeah, and I was like, well, if she's going to be happy with me,
what's wrong with that?
So,
I was like,
well,
we're going to get married anyway,
it's just better not
you want to be there.
And so they,
and so they never came around
to your way of thinking?
They did eventually
because they realised
that
my daughter's more stubborn
than she is,
so
she basically,
okay,
well,
if you can put up with that shit for the rest
of your life, then sure, go for it.
So hang on, just back to what you said. You said four and a half
years fiancé. So they said no
and you're still not married either, just like Martin.
Unfortunately
visas are in the way.
We haven't actually been able to live together.
So we've been living long distance for four and a half years.
We've also got a two year old son
and another one on the way.
So I've just moved them over.
Wow.
Aaron, you've got kids with this woman and you've got one on the way.
You've got a kid and you guys can't.
You're still long distance?
Well, not anymore.
I moved them to New Zealand in January just after I went over to Tokyo
for Christmas and New Year's and brought them home finally.
Wow.
Oh, well, that's awesome.
What a happy ending.
Congratulations, mate.
That's cool to hear.
Yeah.
Oh, that's awesome.
And, I mean, hey.
They always work on the tax bucket.
We've done four and a half years and two children together.
Yeah, and plus, I mean, if the wedding goes ahead
and you need to save money,
you don't have to fly the parents over
because they weren't interested in the marriage in the first place.
So, bada bing, bada boom, cheap wedding, baby.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.

Fine, okay, one all.
She did delete it for a little while.
That was a ballsy move from me. Well done, Clint. That was brave.

afternoon. Very well done.
Thanks, Bree.
ZDM Spree in Clint, the podcast.
We are live outside the
ZDM studios right now, awaiting
the arrival of a very special vehicle.
You know, we're making the family bigger.
Yeah, this is a new addition to the family, absolutely.
About six weeks ago, a vehicle went viral on the internet
for being the only world-first half-van, half-ute.
And I purchased that vehicle with my own money.
$3,000.
No vehicle inspection.
No checks.
No assurance it'll even get a warrant.
Didn't even see it.
Didn't even see it.
All right, let's do this.
Kick it off, Hazza.
I bought a van.
No, you bought a what?
A van slash ute.
Yeah!
We bought a Benute!
The Benute is coming and everybody's charming.
It doesn't have a warrant and it is full of rust.
Okay, this is like Extreme Makeover Home Edition.
Producer Ben is around the corner with the Venute at the moment.
He's about to roll around the corner and you'll see it for the very first time.
Are you ready?
I don't know.
Yeah, no, I'm ready.
I'm ready.
I'm ready. Producer Ben ready, I'm ready.
Producer Ben, bring in the vernoons.
I can't see it yet.
I can hear something.
Okay, we can hear toots.
I can hear toots.
Oh, look at her.
Look at her.
That can't be.
That is better than I expected.
Oh, it's got a siren.
Listen to it.
Go down and see it.
Go down and see it.
What a beauty.
Okay, so let me paint you a picture, everybody.
She is fire engine red with white bumpers.
She has pretty nice, pretty spiffy six-spoke bags. Oh, my God.
Open her up.
Let us know what it smells like inside there, Bree.
Get that new car smell.
I don't think Bree's microphone is working.
Okay, excellent.
No worries.
We can't hear you down there, so get a whiff of it and come on back up.
The parcel tray in the back, the U part of it, is kind of like chromed out.
That's pretty gangster, actually.
It smells like anything other than a new car.
Does it smell musty?
Does it smell like it's leaking?
No, she smells good.
The dashboard has a custom white paint job done to it?
I mean, look, she's gathering a crowd already.
Do you think these people specifically came down to see the new car?
No, I think they're waiting for a taxi, but still, a crowd's a crowd.
Look at the interior of it.
Those are not the standard seats.
Those are custom seats that have been put in there as well.
Think of the people I'm going to pick up in that thing.
Producer Ben, can we get the siren and the
horn going and stuff? Can we get a bit of an audio
demo of the Venus? Yeah, it's got a siren.
Sounds like
a police car. It sounds like the battery
is about to go flat.
Is there a microphone
in it, Ben?
The microphone doesn't work.
We can work on that.
She's got a few tweaks.
Okay.
Overall, how are you feeling?
What do you think?
Mate, looking at that, that is the best three grand I've ever spent.
Can you look at the front, Ben?
Does it have a warrant at the moment?
Is it registered?
It does.
It does have a warrant.
Oh, it doesn't have a warrant. No warrant. It's registered. No warrant. Oh. Okay. Well, there you go. It does have a warrant. Oh, it doesn't have a warrant.
No warrant.
No warrant.
Oh.
Okay, well, there you go.
It's here, everybody.
From here, we need to formulate a plan to get it out on the road
because we are taking this thing on tour, right?
I think I'm in love.
We're going to take it from Auckland to Wellington on a week-long roadie
and finish up with one party in the capital to finish off summer.
Look at the cab in the back.
We're going to put a spa in there.
Oh, my God.
Think of the things we can do.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I want to talk about this comedy special that's doing the rounds at the moment.
I'm pretty sure it was released like six months ago,
but it's starting to gain quite a lot of traction and attention
because apparently
this comedy stand-up special on Netflix is breaking people up.
Like breaking up relationships?
Yes.
How?
So the guy's name is Daniel Sloss and he was on Conan O'Brien talking about his stand-up
special that's on Netflix called Jigsaw. Yeah.
So far, let him tell you and explain exactly how many people and how many relationships
this stand-up special has done. Your routines in Jigsaw have led to many breakups. 4,000 breakups,
17 cancelled engagements and nine divorces. Yeah. All I'm doing is asking you the uncomfortable questions that you don't have the courage to ask yourself
and I bet my money on it that you won't last.
When you taped the special, how many people had broken up at that point who had just seen your stage act?
Yeah, it was 72 and then in 5 days it's gone up to 4,000.
I would say it's more like a medicine, like it's just, it's curing the bad relationships
by stopping them from existing.
What sort of question, I'm thinking about this
as a person who's in a relationship, I'm married.
What sort of question could he be asking
that is forcing, that is resulting in so many breakups?
It's holding up a mirror so harshly to a relationship
that it causes it to end.
Because he reckons, he believes in society,
we kind of get programmed to think that we have to be in relationships
and you have to end up with someone and you have to be married
and stay with that person for the rest of your life.
He, I believe, because I watched the rest of the Conan O'Brien interview,
believes some people are just in relationships to be in a relationship.
Right.
He reckons there's people who are in love
and there's really good relationships,
but he also thinks there's a lot of people
who are just in it to be in a relationship.
Okay.
And they're pretty unhappy.
God, the problem is you don't know which one of those you're in
until you watch the Netflix special.
Well, this is the thing.
So it's like watch at your own risk.
And that's what they say.
They're now saying if you're in a relationship,
you really do have to watch it at your own risk.
Surely it hasn't.
Surely it's not that prolific.
I want to know from our Kiwi audience,
because I trust the Kiwis,
I want to know if you were in a relationship,
you watched this doco,
and I want to hear from the people who may have broken up
and I want to hear from the people who are still in a relationship.
Okay, what's it called?
It's called Jigsaw and it's a stand-up special on Netflix
from Daniel Sloss.
Yeah, and you want to know did you watch it
and what happened to your relationship?
And what happened to your relationship. And what happened to your relationship?
Okay, all right, cool.
I would be fascinated if it caused someone to break up.
Me too.
I really would.
0800 dial ZM right now.
Know what we're watching at my house tonight?
Married at First Sight.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
We're talking about this stand-up special on Netflix called Jigsaw.
It's from a guy called Daniel Sloss who apparently this thing,
this stand-up special is breaking up relationships.
He says he asks the hard questions,
or makes you ask the hard questions that prove whether your relationship
is a fraud.
It's bringing to light he believes the people who are just in a relationship
to be in a relationship,
and they're not really in love.
Neither of us have seen it.
So we asked you, New Zealand,
have you seen it?
And what happened to your relationship?
We're going to go straight to Cassandra,
who has low battery.
Hi, Cassandra.
Hi, Cass.
Hi.
How urgent?
Like 4%, 3%?
I'm on 1% now.
Whoa.
I'm on a% with Audrey.
Tell us what you know.
So I've been following the comedian
for like years and I watched the special
with this guy I'd been seeing for exactly
two weeks. Yes.
We watched it together
and thought, oh, it's really interesting.
And we moved in together a week
later. Wait.
Wait, so it's done the opposite
for you. It's done the opposite.
Yeah, it's asked the hard questions
and you can't ask them. It sucks if you
can. You're like, hell yes. What is one of
the questions? Like, what the hell is
this guy asking in the DVD?
He says that he believes
everyone in their life is just trying to fill
in their own version of a jigsaw puzzle.
And you gather pieces and when you meet someone, you keep taking their pieces to try and fill
in your own jigsaw and they take your pieces to fill in theirs, but you should be creating
one together and you have to ask yourself whether or not you're fitting into their jigsaw
or they're fitting into yours or if you're actually creating your own.
God, that is deep.
That is really...
Whoa, as a single person, you lost me ages ago.
The show's on Netflix, did you say?
The show is on.
We're getting texts.
Yeah, it's on Netflix.
It's called Jigsaw and it's a stand-up special from Daniel Sloss.
Okay, next we're going to go to someone who watched it with their partner.
Hi, Megan.
Hi, Megan.
Hi.
And what happened?
Oh, well, I watched it by myself.
Oh, sorry, you watched it without your partner,
but you are in a relationship?
Yes, so I'm married.
I'm still married.
And did your relationship stand up to what he was saying?
I think it was interesting because he does, I mean,
what he says is very kind of typical of most relationships.
There's parts of that, parts of what he says that you're like,
oh, yeah, that's so true that you do do that.
Or you do kind of, you know, take someone else's baggage or, you know,
but for the most part, it's, yeah, it's just,
it does kind of shine a light on what you're doing wrong in your relationship.
But I don't think it was necessarily like,
you have to take it as a comedy, you know?
He's just kind of talking in terms of...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, he's not a doctor.
Well, there's people...
Exactly, he's a comedian.
There's people who are getting divorces over this, Megan.
Let's go to Matt.
You did the risky exercise of watching it with your wife.
Is that right?
Yeah, that's right.
Did it make you question things in your relationship, Matt?
No, not really.
Well, we'd just got married sort of the week before.
Okay.
God, that'd be a waste of money, wouldn't it?
Yeah.
You guys are just staying together because you spent so much on the wedding
and you can't bring yourself to break up so soon, right?
Yeah, it was a bit of money, yeah.
And what did you guys think?
But I can't sort of exactly remember what he was talking about,
but like you're saying, there's that many billion people in the world
and chances are most people are with someone that grew up next door
or around the block.
It sounds really cynical what he's saying.
I get it.
I get it.
He's saying you need to look at yourself and see if you're just in a
relationship of convenience.
I still haven't seen it, but I get it.
It just seems maybe they're happy.
I don't think it's cynical because, no,
what he's saying is that people stay in a relationship
because they think that's what they want and it makes them happy.
But what he's saying is that.
What I'm saying is maybe that's fine.
Maybe leave those people alone.
Maybe they're happy enough as they are.
Yeah, they'll break up eventually.
Maybe that's as happy as they'll ever get.
And you, jigsaw man, come along and ruin it.
I've got horrific deja vu right now, by the way.
Really?
I've been here before.
Maybe.
I'm just saying, if the person who is running the simulation that I'm in today
could organise something good for dinner for me, that would be great.
Maybe this time next year we'll be having the same convo
and you would have broken up with your wife.
Oh, yeah, maybe.
That sounds lovely.
Far out.
I'll watch it.
I'll watch it with her.
No, I want you, yeah, I want you to watch it
because obviously you're the one that's in the relationship.
Yeah.
And your relationship is, like, perfect.
Oh, okay, mate.
Don't jinx it.
No, it is.
You've got a really good relationship.
No, we do have a very very good relationship
You'd be one of the relationships
This guy's talking about
Where you're actually
In it for love
Like you're actually in love
I'm just thinking about my jigsaw now
Anyway
Well
We didn't hear from anyone who broke up
So that's a positive thing
Yeah we didn't
Brie and Clint
The podcast
ZM

Oh, I have not yet.
I'll have to doodle it tonight.

If you are in any way automotively inclined,
this is the vehicle for you.
She's a tasty dish.
What's your birthday, Matt?
23rd of the 11th, 1990.
Okay, Matt, you were 16 in 2006 on the 23rd of November,

Yeah I was like
Gorgeous feelings
That was when JT
Really hit his stride

That was the peak of his powers
That was sexy back days
Future sex love sound

Yes.
Badass girl pop rock anthem, Avril Lavigne, Girlfriend.
I love it.
What do you think?
Yeah, it's good, isn't it?
Have you seen the Venute, Brie?
I haven't yet.
Like, that is my duo.
Mate, it is the van for people called Brie.
Do yourself a favour.
It's a mullet on wheels.
God, I wish your parents were still here so your dad could come and inspect the vehicle and tell you what a mullet on wheels. God, I wish your parents
were still here
so your dad could come
and inspect the vehicle
and tell you
what a great job you've done.
I don't know
if he would say that.
Hey, Jo.
Hello.
Jo, have you seen
the Venute yet?
You know what?
I haven't.
She sounds like a treat.
It's half van,
half ute,
all Venute.
But that's not important
right now.
What more would you want in life?
I know, right? What more would you want in life? I know right
What more would you want?
It's the best of both worlds
What matters right now though
Is your birthday banger
Can we get your birthday?
I feel super old right now
But yeah
3rd of August
1972
Oh not at all
Joe you were 16 in 1988
What a good year
On the 3rd of August
And this is your birthday banger
Here we go, here we go.
How appropriate for today, too, was such a car-based show, you know?
This is Ridden in the Stars, Jo.
It really was.
It was meant to be.
Do you approve of it?
I approve of nothing more than the Venute and that song.
Bree, do you approve of it?
I approve, mate.
We're doing it.
Oh, Tracy Chapman.
We are going home together listening to Tracy Chapman this afternoon.
It's your birthday, Banger Jo.
Well done.
Thanks.
All right.
Sing it loud.
This is for you, Venute. Does the Venute get the radio? Yeah, she does. It does. All right. Sing it loud. This is for you, Vinute.
Does the Vinute get the radio?
Yeah, she does.
It does.
She does.
Turn it up, Vinute.
She'd be listening right now.
You get a fast car.
ZDM Spree in Clint, the podcast.
I want to talk to you about a story out of Melbourne, Australia.
Oh, yeah.
That I feel like I can relate to quite well and not in a good way.
Okay.
So the guy's name is David and he's 56 and he's taking his boss to court for $1.8 million
arguing that flatulence is a form of bullying.
Oh, right.
Okay.
David claims that his boss would walk past him.
I can't deal.
He said, I would be sitting with my face to the wall and he would come into the room, which was very small
and had no windows, and he would fart behind me
and then walk away.
He would do this five or six times a day.
Yeah.
He also said that his boss would thrust his buttocks towards him,
which he didn't appreciate in the motion of letting go the fart.
Yeah.
And he wants $1.8 million of compensation.
And he should get it because it is workplace bullying.
Can I say as someone who works
with two rampant flatulators
it is not okay. Yes, producer Ben.
Gross. No, weirdly.
And Ross bosses. No.
No, you'd think working with men you'd be like
yuck, stinky men. She's not
here so she can't defend herself but I don't mind throwing her
under the bus. Producer Ellie
and you, it's like
sport for you two. It's like
being, it's like a rugby team of dudes
except it's you guys like, oh good one Ellie
that was a good one. Watch I got one too.
Oh good one Bree, that was a nice one
that was a nice one. Did you put that one on Instagram?
I don't know where these false stories are coming from
that you're making up but
David who's taking his boss
to court, he, the
case has been thrown out.
Why?
They said, no, it's not a form of bullying.
It's something that happens and it's an involuntary.
It's not involuntary.
It is.
It's an involuntary natural bodily occurrence. It's natural, but it's not involuntary.
We actually.
How old is this guy?
If it's involuntary, they're just falling out.
I don't know.
David is now taking him back to court because he said,
no, this isn't over.
And we've actually got some evidence.
We've actually got some clips from the courtroom.
No, we don't.
I'm not playing this button.
No, we've got some clips.
I'm not playing it.
Let's go to the clip of the evidence from the courtroom
where David is suing his boss,
claiming flatulence is a form of bullying.
Yep.
No, that is...
That is...
Are you proud of yourself?
Wait, let's go to the...
I can't...
In a jury situation, I mean, that is pretty...
That's the whole thing. Pretty rock-hard evidence. Let I mean, that is pretty rock hard evidence.
Let's go to the second piece of audio evidence.
No, we're not going to the second.
Let's go.
No, I think he does deserve that 1.8 million.
They sounded wet.
I went to broadcasting school for this shit.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I do love hearing about Guinness Book of Records.
I just find it so interesting.
How good was the book back in the day?
The book was the best.
When we went to school library, that was the first book you went towards.
Try and find it.
And you wanted the latest one.
Got to have the latest one.
Got to know who world's tallest man, oldest man, longest fingernails are.
It was so good. Did you ever watch the show?
Was there a show? Yeah, there was a show
where people would try and break the records
on the show. I used to watch Ripley's Believe It
or Not. Oh, that was good too. Yeah. That was good.
This is a Guinness Book of Records
story and it involves
71-year-old Andy
Stinfeld.
He unfortunately got struck
down with cancer and he went through all the chemo and he came out the othereld. He unfortunately got struck down with cancer and he went through all
the chemo and he came out the other end. He was
really healthy and he decided
he wanted to get healthy. Okay.
Sorry, bless me.
It's okay.
I think that's the first time that's ever happened
on radio. And on it, no.
No, for me.
Radio, well first, no, for me. Anyway, so, first, no, for me.
Anyway, so he wanted to get healthy.
He started exercising and he started to do planks.
You know, planking?
Prone holds.
How would you describe that?
What did you call it?
Well, prone holds are the name for them.
When you're on your elbows and your feet and you have to form a bridge with your abs.
Yeah.
And he started doing that.
The first time he ever did that, he held it for 10 minutes.
His first one was 10 minutes?
His first one.
And the guy at the gym was like, you're a pro at this.
He's like, you don't need me.
Like, that's a big deal.
You should be training me, 71-year-old man.
Anyway, on his 70th birthday, he held a plank for 35 minutes
and was told that it was very close to the Guinness Book of Records for his age.
Yeah.
And he broke the record on his 71st birthday with a plank of 38 minutes.
38 minutes.
And he's 71 as well.
And he's 71.
We've done our own planks.
Just to see how close we could get to the world record.
I've done one.
Bree, you've done one.
And Producer Ben, you've done one as well.
Where is Producer Ellie?
Because she makes me look good in these things.
I have the results here.
I have three individual pieces of paper.
Oh, no.
Here's our results.
Okay, first, I have...
Who is first?
The results for, in a plank test,
Bree.
Oh, no.
Bree, you got...
One minute 59.
I'm happy with that.
It's good.
No, I'm...
Because you did a big workout this morning.
I did.
I F45'd it up at Grey Lynn and I'm happy with that.
Next up in the results, we have producer Ben,
who has...
a plank of 3 minutes 25.
How is that even possible?
That's good work, mate.
I've seen you at the gym.
Yeah.
I'm lifting the same weights as you.
And it just leaves me at 4 minutes 41.
Oh, well, you're a show-off.
Hey, no, you say congratulations to me.
Nah, that's good.
And hang on, hang on.
This is the way it should have gone.
And then now to Bree. No. Nah, that's good. And then, hang on, this is the way it should have gone. And then now to Bree.
No.
Yeah, 159.
She'll be producer Ellie.
Ready?
Do the drum roll.
Now I've got her results.
No.
She's not here.
14 seconds.
No, don't be mean. ZM's Free and Clint, the podcast. If you enjoyed this podcast, why not give ZM's Fletchbourne and Megan a listen too?
