Starting point is 00:00:00 Kia ora everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. I have a story, this is where we share our stories that we don't want to say on the radio, so I'm just going to do it because I feel like it's a safe space. It's on a boat on the weekend. Okay. I'm on a boat! Yeah, we don't sing that anymore because it's not 2008. Boats and hoes!
Starting point is 00:00:19 And I was on there with Luce, my wife, coming back from my hickey. Boats and hoes! Shouldn't have made that joke, should I? And we're sitting there and this like hen's party comes and sits down next to us on the ferry. On the ferry back. And they're lit. They're having a good time. I bet.
Starting point is 00:00:37 They're talking away. They're all wearing bridal veils. Like 5.30. Oh yeah. So they're coming back from the wineries to I think to continue into a big night in town it's about to really kick off yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:00:46 and then I see at the front of the bridal group that's sitting about four seats away from us my ex-girlfriend is part of the bridal party oh love it
Starting point is 00:00:56 I didn't see her at first um and Luce because Luce is a very caring thoughtful person and she turns to me and she says
Starting point is 00:01:03 are you all good sitting here? I was like, yeah, yeah, it's crack up. These guys are funny. And then I saw her. I was like, oh, that's what you mean. It's a 45-minute ferry ride. And I think, and by the way, my ex and I are totally fine. We just don't talk.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Right. I think we've maybe talked since we broke up. We were together a long time. And I think since we broke up, we've probably seen each other twice and once so I could get my iPod back. And that's it in five years. So we weren't going to have like an out and out heart to heart conversation on the ferry with my wife. Do you say hello?
Starting point is 00:01:41 This is my question. What do you do? What would you do? If I was single, I probably, and not with my partner, probably I would have said hello. That would be the mature thing to do. Yeah, of course. You spent a big part of your life with this person.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Yeah, and I like her as a person. Exactly. And if it ended amicably, then why not? But, yeah, but I didn't do that. No, well, you're with your wife and they're drunk. So yeah, but also, yeah. So I actively avoided eye contact for a 45 minute ferry ride. And she was about. Did she see you?
Starting point is 00:02:17 I'm pretty sure she did. Because every time I, I, I, I'm pretty sure she was actively avoiding eye contact with me too. I think she did exactly what I did. She goes, oh, let's just not have an awkward conversation. Let's just both avoid each other altogether. You know, it's really lucky because usually in those kind of situations, like bachelorette parties, girls dare each other to do stuff. Like on a stag do.
Starting point is 00:02:41 So I saw that happening. Within the bridal party, I could see other girls that I think I remember from when I was with my ex. Right. And I could see, you know when you can tell someone is talking about you? I could tell they were going, is that thingy's ex? Is that her ex-partner? Yeah. So I could see that that was happening.
Starting point is 00:03:00 I thought, look, let's just avoid this altogether. If I see you another time, I'd love to catch up. Like in any other situation. It's just, it's a weird situation. Everybody would be looking and going, whoa, what are they talking about? So I was like, I'll get up early before the boat gets into the dock and I'll go and wait at the exit so I can just get off the boat nice and quickly. And so I got up 10 minutes early and walked over there. She had had the same idea and she was also standing at the exit.
Starting point is 00:03:24 And by now we're about three meters apart and both of us still ignored the fact and just avoided eye contact she was slightly ahead of me they opened the gate i've never seen someone run off a ferry so fast not run but just like power walk so it kind of looked natural but at the same time definitely didn't look natural bit like the last time you saw her, right? Just running away. No, she was driving away and I was crying, thank you very much. Yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 00:03:53 There's my awkward encounter. Oh, mate. I can't believe you haven't told me that yet. I know. I've just... I have a question. One more question before we get to the podcast. Yeah. Was she hotter?
Starting point is 00:04:03 Now than then. Yeah. She looked exactly the same. Oh. She hadn hotter? Now than then. Yeah. She looked exactly the same. Oh. She hadn't aged, if anything. She hadn't aged. Oh, good for her.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Yeah. You on the other hand. Me on the other hand. Yeah, I know, right? Because she would have been thinking the same thing. That's what everyone thinks when they see their ex.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Yeah, she would have been going, well, that's a win for me. No, she wouldn't. Here's today's. Hey, leave. I don't. I was standing up for you. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:04:23 You're welcome. Sorry, I'm emotionally vulnerable at the moment. Here's today's... Hey, leave. I don't... I was standing up for you. Thank you. You're welcome. Sorry, I'm emotionally vulnerable at the moment. Here's the podcast. ZM. Let's go, go, go. Now let me see you dance. ZM's Brie and Clint. Oh, kia ora, everybody.
Starting point is 00:04:36 How you doing? Hello, guys. God, it's cold. Sorry. Sorry to start out with generic weather chat, but God, it's cold. We're in Auckland. Yeah, I know. We cannot complain.
Starting point is 00:04:48 I know, mate. Oh, look, two girls wearing the same sweatshirt. Oh, jinxies. Don't you hate that when you're in the office and you show up and someone's wearing the exact same outfit as you? And then they're like, oh, my God, we should get a photo and put it on Facebook with the caption, twinsies. You know, that happened to me once.
Starting point is 00:05:02 I was wearing, no joke, the exact same outfit as Shannon Knoll. No joke. You were wearing the same outfit as Shannon Knoll. I turned up for this interview with Shannon Knoll. Never met the guy before and I was real nervous. Yeah. We were wearing head to toe the same outfit. Well, it's okay because his facial hair is below his lip and yours is above your lip.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah, exactly. So we connected on multiple levels. Yeah, you know, there was a minor difference in your outfits. Plus his cowboy hat was slightly bigger than the one you were wearing at that point in your life. Shut up, there was no cowboy hat. Yeah, there definitely was at some stage of your life. And some cowgirl boots. That was a fedora, not a cowgirl hat.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Today on the show, we've got you speaking of cowgirls, we've also got your chance to go to Brisbane for the NRL Magic round. Yeah, you know who's in that is the Cowboys. The Cowboys are in there. Yeah. You need to play Battle of the Sixes with us at 4.30 this afternoon. The Broncos. Sorry, I was still on there.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Broncos, yeah, that's another one. Part of the Cowboy joke. I'm looking for some Cowboy ones in there. Anyone else? Nope. Nope. That game's been really fun on the show. It has been good. I'm looking for some Cowboy Ones in there. Anyone else? Nope. Nope. That game's been really fun on the show. It has been good.
Starting point is 00:06:07 I'm looking forward to that. Our defending champ is a female, so we need a male to play with us at 4.30 today. Also, if you lose, you get tickets to the Warriors game this weekend and you get a signed Warriors jersey, so there's no losers in that game. It is all good. Plus, it is a ticket blitz today for Mardi Gras this year,
Starting point is 00:06:26 not just in Oakunee, but Queenstown as well. The 22nd of June and the 23rd of June. Tickets for that go on sale from the Ticket Ferry tonight at 7pm, ticketferry.com. But if you would like a double pass to see Mitch James, Chase and Stannis and everybody else who was part of Mardi Gras 2019, call us now, 0800 DOLLS.M, and we'll give you a double pass. It's raining tickets here this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Tickets every single hour for that. ZM, Brie and Clint. I should have stayed with you last night. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Remember yesterday, at this time, you told us about the best apartment in the world. Yeah, I thought it was because when you purchase one of these apartments, they also give you a year's
Starting point is 00:07:07 worth of smashed avo. Yeah, but you have to pay between $4,000 and $6,000 for the apartment? No, you have to pay, it's between $400,000 and $500,000. Sorry, that's what I meant. Yeah. But you get that for free. But you get some free avocado on toast.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Technically. It's a good deal. It's a good deal. I today am going to make that look even better because I think I've found the worst apartment in the world uh this is in australia and of course it is yeah it's actually just technically a room to rent wait is this in sydney they haven't specified the person has grabbed the the ad from facebook okay and it's become a news story but no one's put the actual location on it i don't know if that's for safety or what,
Starting point is 00:07:45 but it's in Australia. Possibly in Sydney. It's really hard to get accommodation there, right? It is impossible. Okay, so there's a room available. It's a shared room. So there's two beds in the room. What, so you're sharing with someone else?
Starting point is 00:08:00 Yeah, you share a bedroom with someone else. Okay. There are two single beds in the room. Kind of like student accommodation. Yeah, I guess, kind of like student accommodation. So two single beds, they are looking for four people to fill the room. What, to sleep in two single beds? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:17 The way they've spun it is you won't have to share a bed with anybody because they are looking to rent this room to two daytime workers and two nighttime workers. So you use the bed on like a rotating roster. So you'll sleep in it at night, and then the other person will come in who works night shift, and when you're at work, they'll sleep in it at daytime. And in the single bed next to you, the same thing is happening.
Starting point is 00:08:44 You say they're taking the piss. They're not. It's completely legit. Like it's an actual room for rent at the moment. Not to be horrible because obviously, you know, there's people out there that don't have any room. No. That's the worst thing in the world.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Yes. And you feel for those people. Yeah. But this person who's renting the room. Yeah. How cheap do you have to be? Not that cheap, actually. It's still $123 a week.
Starting point is 00:09:08 What? Each? Yeah. Each? Yeah, per person. Oh, no. Yeah. Nah.
Starting point is 00:09:16 And there's only one set. Well, I guess you could bring your own. Okay, wait. I've got one more question. Yeah. Oh, no, it's in Australia. I was going to say, is it a room in the Playboy Mansion? No, it's not a room in the Playboy Mansion.
Starting point is 00:09:26 No. And also, it comes furnished. It comes with sheets and pillowcases and duvets already. So. What? Wait, do you have to share those or do you get two sets? You don't have to, but you can. Sign me up.
Starting point is 00:09:42 You'd want to take your sheets with you to work though, right? Yeah. So the other person, the night person, wasn't coming in want to take your sheets with you to work though right Yeah So the other person The night person Wasn't coming in and jumping on your sheets That is grim Yeah it's grim ZM Spree and Clint The podcast
Starting point is 00:09:54 I'm pretty excited about this Yeah So you know how Obviously we've talked about the Venute A lot on this show Yes It's our pride and joy Well it's your pride and joy
Starting point is 00:10:04 But I feel like I feel like Am I the Ven venutes godfather you're the godfather yeah yeah you're the godfather good um and i purchased the venute which is half van half ute off facebook off the internet because it went viral i don't trust facebook marketplace can i just say that i don't trust anything from it i should now that we've driven the venute but it just seems like the dodgy place to buy things from. Everything worked perfectly and I have now realised that I should purchase a lot of things off the internet without having seen them. No, that's not
Starting point is 00:10:33 the lesson here. You struck it lucky. No. You struck it extremely lucky. I think that's the way to do it. And even then with this one it needed copious amounts of work. We just had people help us along the way. Oh, T's and C's. T's and C's. Like James at Streetwise did all the work basically for free. You're lucky that thing is roadworthy. I think I've found my next purchase.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Okay, well, I'm keen to hear what it is. This is exciting, and it's not off Facebook this time, but it's off the internet. There's something on Trade Me right now in New Zealand that is going ballistic. It's getting a lot of attention attention just like the Venute did. It's not that ride on lawnmower I saw the other week, which was just a chair on the back of a sheep.
Starting point is 00:11:11 No, but I wish I had bought that. It was $21,000. I hope you don't want to buy that. Bloody regrets. This item is a plane. I've seen this. I've seen this. Yep. Technically not the whole plane. No, this is a plane. I've seen this. I've seen this. Yep.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Technically not the whole plane. No, this is a good investment. I think it's a very good investment. Yeah, this is a good investment. This is what the Trade Me auction says that you get. So it's a private jet cockpit slash cabin. It's ready. They say it's ready for like a conversion.
Starting point is 00:11:41 You might be able to turn it into like an Airbnb or a cafe. Tiny house situation. Tiny house situation. A tiny house maybe. So this was an actual aircraft that they dismantled and this guy who owns it has had it sitting in his backyard. Yeah. Am I right in saying it's got no wings? No.
Starting point is 00:11:59 No tail. And no tail. Yes. It's the fuselage. Yes. But the cockpit is there? Yeah, the cockpit's there with all of like the gear in it. It looks awesome.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah. So the aircraft is an Israeli aircraft industry West Wing. Apparently the only one in the country. Okay. Did anyone famous own it or fly on it? Like is there any like, because you know how that drives the value of it up. A shitty old plane is a shitty old plane.
Starting point is 00:12:24 But if it was a shitty old plane owned by Elvis. It's Kim Kardashian's old plane. Right. When Kim Kardashian was flying planes in the 1980s. Yeah. Hey, they have private jets. It could be real.
Starting point is 00:12:34 No, it doesn't say that anyone famous owned it. Yeah. But it's very cool. Cool. Now. Yes. How much? I mean, you know, this and that. What's money when you can buy a plane? I mean, you know, this and that.
Starting point is 00:12:46 What's money when you can buy a plane? That is, you know, it's rare. But if you had to put a dollar figure on it? If I had to, which you can't. No, I know you can't. Because it's sentimental. No, it's not sentimental. Yeah, it is rare.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Yeah. And, you know, can you put a price on it? Yeah. Yeah. And they surely have put a price on it. Yeah. Yeah. They surely have put a price on it. Yeah. Currently, the auction is still open. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:10 $32,000. Get it. Hey. Buy now. Buy now. That was $3,000. Yeah, this is 10 times. It's got a three in it.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Works. It's mine. It's mine. Sold. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Live from Hollywood. With our man on The podcast. ZM. Live from Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:13:26 With our man on the ground. Dean McCarthy. Spy.co.nz. Dean, this is a very full-on story involving Ashton Kutcher that's come out today. Guys, honestly, when I first read this story, I thought that I was reading the script of a new Hollywood film. Ashton Kutcher, this is the truth, this is serious. In 2001, his then girlfriend was murdered. Okay, Ashton Kutcher in Hollywood, in a little apartment block in Hollywood, kind of near the Dolby Theatre where they have the Oscars, right there. Anyway, he was the first person on
Starting point is 00:13:58 the scene. Okay, he gets there. When he looked through the window, because she wasn't answering her phone, right? He looks through the window, sees red wine on the floor, can't get in, leaves, thinks nothing of it. The next day, it was revealed that she had been murdered and it was actually blood on the floor that he'd seen. That was back in 2001. And now the man who's been allegedly caught and allegedly a serial killer, okay, this guy, he murdered multiple people apparently, Ashton Kutcher, the superstar actor, will have to take the stand in the trial and share his account of when he was a witness
Starting point is 00:14:34 to the, you know, aftermath of the murder. How full on is that? I was the exact same as you, Dean. I read this this morning and thought, oh, this is a new Netflix documentary. Yeah, are we 100% sure this is not the relaunch of Punk'd? Yeah, no, it is full serious. It's not promo for his new movie, Dude, Where's My Girlfriend?
Starting point is 00:14:53 I'm sorry, that was bad taste. Wow. It was around the time when he did that movie, actually, that this all happened. He was, actually, yeah. Is he still with Demi Moore? No, he's with Mila Kunis. Oh, my God, stop. Are you joking? No, I just watched Mila Kunis. Oh, my God, stop. Are you joking?
Starting point is 00:15:05 No, I just watched the roast of Bruce Willis on Comedy Central the other night, and they made a lot of Demi Moore jokes. And even I went, hang on, he's not still with her, is he? Wait, guys, is it 2009? Oh, no, hang on. It's still 2019. I know he's with Mila Kunis. I knew that.
Starting point is 00:15:22 She's great on Modern Family, by the way. Also, Dean, Oprah is in the headlines today, isn't she? She did make the headlines, and this is really quite interesting, actually. So you may know Oprah Winfrey became the new host, or one of the new hosts on 60 Minutes America. She would host, like, big TV specials, right? She quit the gig, okay?
Starting point is 00:15:42 She quit 60 Minutes, and we now know why. But would you believe the producers of 60 Minutes told Oprah to, and I quote, pull it back on being emotional, change how she says her name, and essentially be less Oprah. So basically, they wanted her to be more serious,
Starting point is 00:16:00 you know, hard-hitting, crunch story, and take out all of the things we love about her. And you know what? She was like, you know what? I don't need the money, honey. So she quit the gig and now she's throwing them all under the bus. It's kind of interesting.
Starting point is 00:16:11 That producer, currently fired. Who do you think you are telling Oprah what to do? Also, how does she say her name? What's weird about how she says her name? Oprah! It's Oprah! Welcome to 60 Minutes. I am Oprah!
Starting point is 00:16:26 Yeah, maybe she should tone that back a little bit, actually, maybe. That is Dean McCarthy, our man on the ground in Hollywood. Thank you very much. ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast. This is big, guys. This is exciting. I think this is my favourite thing we do on this show. It's time, baby.
Starting point is 00:16:41 It's time for another Bree and Clint taste test. We taste it. So you don't have to. We're generous like that. Most recently we ate the donut burger, which was a regular cheeseburger that had cinnamon donuts as the buns. Delicious. I also made you try Coke and Milk. Coke and Milk, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Which was going ballistic on the internet. Everyone loved it. I actually didn't mind it. I didn't like that one. It was like cola-flavoured milk. Which was going ballistic on the internet. Everyone loved it. I actually didn't mind it. I didn't like that one. Yeah, it was like cola-flavoured milk. It was weird. We also tasted Spag Bowl chips. Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Today, the item that is taking the internet by storm, the Mie Goreng Toasty. I love some Mie Goreng. We've put producer Ellie to work creating the Mie Goreng Toasty. Now, it has three key ingredients. White bread, we've got that. Correct. How'd you go it has three key ingredients uh white bread we've got that correct how'd you go white bread how'd you go can i just say first off for a quick easy snack it's not very quick and it's not okay yeah well that'll be all the ingredients the other another
Starting point is 00:17:35 key ingredient it needs a fried egg have we got a fried egg and obviously it needs me goreng noodles correct so did you cook the me go Goreng separate and then the egg separate and then you put it on the toastie and then you toasted it? Correct. So it was quite a process for a quick snack. But I'm hoping it's yum. Thank God you made it because producer Ben was going to put the noodles in the sandwich and then crack the egg on top of it.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Like a raw egg. Ellie's going to be the next Nadia Lim. We have new criteria for taste test. We are rating it on three different categories and then an overall would eat again. So then at home, you can decide if you want to make this and try it. We will rate it first on appearance when we see it out of five. We'll rate it on smell out of five.
Starting point is 00:18:16 And then we will rate it on taste out of five. All right, here we go. So now we need to lay eyes on it. Very visual, this first component. The me gorying toasty looks fantastic. Yeah, no, it's noodles on a sandwich. Oh, yeah, when you turn it to the noodle
Starting point is 00:18:32 bit, it looks a bit weird. But from the back, it just looks like a yum toasty, right? That looks weird from the front. Out of five, you need to give it a rating. As in how appealing does it look? Two? Two? I'd give it a two. I'd give it a three. So it gets a two and a half.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Yep. Okay. Cool. There we go. Next criteria is smell. Now, I've got a blocked nose, but we'll give it the best go I can. So do I. I think it smells good.
Starting point is 00:19:01 It smells like me goring. An egg. Hang on, hang on. Yeah. Yep, no. Smells like me goring an egg. Yeah. Which I love the smell of me goring.
Starting point is 00:19:12 When someone's having that in the office, it doesn't matter what you've got for lunch, you go, shit, I wish I had a dollar bag of instant noodles for lunch. Three and a half. Four. Oh, that's a 3.75. In the smell category. And now the best bit.
Starting point is 00:19:26 And now. And the only part that really matters is the taste. Bon appetit. Tastes like a noodle sandwich. Quite dry. Put some sriracha on that. Yeah. And it's good to go.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Because, you know, I feel like toasting it. Did you over-drain the noodles, maybe? Because those intermediate noodles, there's still some moisture in there when you eat them. Ellie, a little bit overcooked. Yeah, I reckon it is a little bit overcooked. Because the egg's been double-cooked, hasn't it? Oh, wait, I'll have another bite just to make sure.
Starting point is 00:20:06 Yeah. Good. So we've got to give it a rating on taste out of five. It's a bit bland to me. No, a little bit bland. I'll give it a two and a half for taste. Three. Okay, 2.75. That gives us a total score of 2.5 plus 3.75
Starting point is 00:20:21 plus 2.75. That's a 9 out of 15 for the Mee Goreng toasting. Does it pass? Technically it does. Would we eat it again? I don't know if I would. I'd probably just have a normal toast.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Yeah, I'd probably just have a normal toast. It's time for another Bree and Clint taste test. We taste it so you don't have to. Oh, I like this segment. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM.
Starting point is 00:20:47 I had a thought the other day, Clint, when I was walking around my local food place where I buy my groceries and food. That's what it's called. Supermarket. That's the one. Well done. When I was in the vegetable and fruit section
Starting point is 00:21:01 and I had this weird realisation when I was looking at the potatoes that the only vegetable or piece of fruit in the whole place that you can buy dirty is a white potato. Yeah. So why do they have the option? And a kumara as well, a sweet potato. Yes, as well. Potatoes.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Potatoes are the only thing where there's an option to buy it dirty, where they say it's a little bit cheaper, or you can buy it washed. Every other vegetable is washed and ready to eat. I've thought about this too because everyone washes them, right? What the hell? Because I'm not a great cook, but there's not a menu where you serve them dirty, is there? No.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Like you roast in the nutrients or something? No, of course there's not. No, then I don't get it either. Why is it like that? Is that something that they did back in the day and like the dirty ones were really cheap? I think washed potatoes are a modern thing because like... They can't be that...
Starting point is 00:21:54 Like that was like the upgrade. Right. Like you know how they say the best thing since sliced bread. They're the best thing since washed potatoes. So did carrots ever come dirty? Because they grow in the ground. Are carrots clean? They'd get washed at dirty? Because they grow in the ground. Are carrots clean? They'd get washed at some point because they're in the dirt.
Starting point is 00:22:09 They're in the ground. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know the answer. My mum has always said to me, she'd always be like, no matter where you are in life or how much money you're earning, treat yourself to washed potatoes. And I was like, oh, mum's splurged.
Starting point is 00:22:22 She's the opposite of my dad. He'd be like, no matter how big you get, mate, you're never too good for dirty potatoes. I'm always too good for them. I hate dirty potatoes. I hate them. I want to get to the bottom of it. And we're going to call a fruit world.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Yeah. And we're going to ask and see if they know the reason why. You can only buy dirty potatoes. If we get an answer, I'm fascinated. Me too. I'm actually interested. Hello, who was that, sorry? Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:22:52 I was just wondering, do you guys sell washed potatoes? Yes, we do. Do you also sell dirty potatoes? We do. Can I ask, do you know why, out of every fruit or vegetable available to buy, that potatoes are the only ones that come with the dirty option and a clean option? You're talking about white potato? Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:14 We've got some white washed potato is nadine potato. Yes. And then the... That's good for boiling, castor oil, all that stuff. When you cook, it's not fall apart. It stays in the shape. Right, right. And then the white potato that comes dirty.
Starting point is 00:23:30 They got so many variety as well, but it's all proposed. You can use for anything you like. But they're a different variety potato, the dirty ones. Yes, they are. Yes, they are, not the Nadine. Whoa. And wait. Whoa. Did wait. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Did you know why you're asking me then? No, I'm so, I just didn't realise. I just thought that they became dirty as an option. No, no, no. Whoa. No. Wait, so why did they come dirty then? Because the dirty, because it protect potato to not to turn green so quick.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Wait, so that makes it stay fresh longer? Yes. Oh, my God. You've been so enlightening this afternoon. Oh, thank you very much. Thanks so much. Are you happy with that? Yes, you've answered my question.

Starting point is 00:24:44 ZM Spree and Clint. The podcast. Avengers News. Got some more for you. I'm going to go to Fruit World Silverdale. It's a long way, but I think it's worth it. Avengers News, got some more for you. Obviously, biggest movie in the world. Biggest movie of all time. The Avengers fans largely coping with it very well. It's a big movie. We're not going to spoil anything for you. It's an emotional journey,
Starting point is 00:25:06 but largely Avengers fans handling it very well. Of what I've seen, people are pretty happy generally, the fan base. Yeah. I haven't seen it, but apparently... It's getting good reviews. It's getting good reviews.
Starting point is 00:25:16 From the fans too, I think. With how they've wrapped it all up, I've heard from a few Avengers fans that it has everything you need. In my opinion, there are so many threads, like loose threads to pull together. They do a good job of it.
Starting point is 00:25:29 And again, we're not doing any spoilers for you. Some people who are not handling the Avengers situation very well are the Chinese. It's big in China as well, Avengers Endgame. But their fans, not all of them, but there are a few stories coming out of China around Avengers
Starting point is 00:25:46 Endgame where you go, man, you guys got to cool out. Like, chill, man. Just relax. Cool out. One situation where people were queuing up for the film, for the screening, and a guy comes out from the previous one and starts shouting spoilers at the people queuing up
Starting point is 00:26:02 to go into the next screening. Well, that's not cool. They beat him furiously. Oh, well, you can't do that. They were angry. They were angry. Well, I mean, you know. They took to him as a crowd and laid into him. What did he expect was going to happen?
Starting point is 00:26:19 Yeah. Another story today, which comes from Chinanews.com. It's where I get all my Chinese news A 21 year old woman has been hospitalised When she was left short of breath And suffering from numbness in her hands and feet After sitting through the film's tense climax Because I heard that she cried and couldn't stop crying
Starting point is 00:26:43 And that's why they had to send her to hospital. It was too much of an emotional journey for her. She was too invested in the characters or the storyline or whatever. And she cried so much that she started hyperventilating and they had to take her out in an ambulance. Come on. I'm not judging. No, and I'm not judging anyone who cries in that movie or any movie.
Starting point is 00:27:03 But to be, it's just, when you get hospitalized, you have to tell the doctor what you're in for. You know the worst place to cry during a movie? Where? When you're on a plane. Oh, yeah. Happened to me the other day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:15 I watched Creed. Oh, it got me good. The boxing one? Yeah. The Michael B. Jordan one? Yeah. Is that good? Yeah, it's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:27:22 It made me cry. Have you seen Million Dollar Baby? Yeah. Did it make you cry? Yep. What is it with boxing movies? Yeah. Is that good? Yeah, it's pretty good. Hey, it made me cry. Have you seen Million Dollar Baby? Yeah. Did it make you cry? Yep. What is it with boxing movies? Anyway, Avengers Endgame, still no spoilers here at ZM. I think we've got some tickets.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Do we have some tickets? Do we have some Avengers Endgame tickets? We've got some tickets, yeah. 0800 dial ZM. We do have tickets. They're nodding. If you want to go see Avengers Endgame, biggest movie ever, call right now. Brie and Clint, the podcast.
Starting point is 00:27:47 ZM. I've got a big surprise for you, Brie. I told you about this before the show. I've got a nice big surprise for you. See, yesterday you said you had some good news for me, and then you talked about the TV show that I hate the most. Big Bang Theory. So it wasn't good news for me.
Starting point is 00:28:01 You don't hate that. Stop pretending. It's almost over. Embrace your fandom. Thank God it's over. Be who you are. No, I hate it. Live your true life.
Starting point is 00:28:09 So is this actually a surprise for me? Is it a good surprise? Absolutely a surprise for you. And this one is less of a thing that I'm telling you about and more something that I've done for you. You've got that look in your eye. Producer Ben knows about this. What's going on?
Starting point is 00:28:25 I don't trust him either. Look, it took a team effort to get all the things together that we needed for this surprise. TV3 are currently taking applications for Married at First Sight New Zealand and I have signed you up. I have gone to the TV3 website and I
Starting point is 00:28:50 have filled out the application on your behalf. Because, I can see you're surprised and that's good, because I think you're worth it. And I think the time is right for you to settle down with Mr. or Mrs. Right and take that next step in your life.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Do you know every time we talk about that show and you and I joke and laugh and make fun of how much that show is absolutely ridiculous and the experts just put people who are definitely not destined to be together together just to make good TV? Yeah, yeah, yeah. This shows me a lot
Starting point is 00:29:24 about our friendship. No, but every season there's one couple who make it. There's one couple who make it. And I think that could be you. I think you... It's not bloody me. I think you're the success story that Married at First Sight New Zealand is looking for because you're lovable.
Starting point is 00:29:37 And you, you with the right person, sparks. Let me take you through some of the criteria in your application, okay? So that you know the information they've got about you. There are certain criteria you have to meet. Applicants need to be over the age of 25, and I just went ahead and assumed that you are. That's correct, isn't it? So you're over the age of 25. Good. You must have never been married before. I didn't know there was a criteria of married at first sight,
Starting point is 00:30:06 but they're not accepting divorcees on this season, so you've never been married before. In this situation, unfortunately, no, I haven't. Great. Perfect. Cool. Now, in the initial application, before they meet you, Have you actually done this?
Starting point is 00:30:20 Well, yes, because I had to upload a whole lot of stuff. I'm going to tell you about the stuff I've uploaded. Did you put a picture on it? So, in the initial application you have to provide three pictures. You put three pictures in there? Yeah, but I chose good pictures. I chose good pictures for you. I went with
Starting point is 00:30:33 that picture of you eating the giant donut that looks like a wanger. I submitted that one where you're shoving the donut in your mouth. I'll definitely get on the show now. I went with the picture of you with the 46 grapes inside your mouth where it looks like your face has been stung by 50 bees. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:53 And I thought those are two work shots, which are good. It shows your personality. I chose for the third shot a more glamorous one. I submitted that photo of you from Woman's Day where you're in the red turtleneck sweatshirt and the white three-quarter pants when you've got the cankle. I hate you so much.
Starting point is 00:31:15 You also had to submit a video. That is a video element entry. But that's great because you make so many videos. So I uploaded your most recent fart video. Oh, Brianna. The one in the supermarket where you farted
Starting point is 00:31:33 on your mum. Can you imagine the person that they're going to match me with? Yeah, and I'm excited for that. I'm really excited. The last criteria, applicants need to be New Zealand citizens. So, if they ask,
Starting point is 00:31:49 you were born in Timaru. Just if they ask, you're from Timaru. You can still be from an apple farm. It's just a Timaru apple farm. Oh, I'm from Timaru. Get out of my deck. When are we going?

I mean, these days, dating, usually people are on an app or they're at a bar or they're on a speed date or they...

Or, or, or, Modern Love, you're in a mansion and there's a gorgeous man available, but there's 23 other horny women who also want to date him.
Starting point is 00:41:38 That sounds terrible. Well, it's how people find love these days. Look at Art and Matilda. Sometimes people find love at the workplace and producer Ben was telling me this morning when we went to F45 that he overheard a workplace fling chat. Yeah. Between two people.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Apparently they were both in the same profession. They were both cleaners. And apparently one said to the other one, you know, I really want to take you somewhere outside of this place and I want to take you out on a date outside of work. And then she was into it. Can I get him on? Producer Ben, where were you that you were eavesdropping on two cleaners who are having a romantic moment?
Starting point is 00:42:19 I was in a toilet. Oh. Were you actually? Yeah, I actually was, yeah. Well, I'm not doing anything. I don't take my phone to the toilet, so I just sort of sit there and listen. Well, that's fair enough. You couldn't do anything else. Well, you were doing something in a toilet.

Starting point is 00:42:41 while you were doing your business? No, they were just outside. They were right there. Oh, okay. They were just cleaning it, yeah. This story gets more and more interesting as we go deeper in. Why are you asking so many details about producer Ben going to the bathroom? It's cute.
Starting point is 00:42:52 It's a cute story. Very cute story. So obviously love has blossomed for those two people at a workplace. Has this ever happened for you? No, I've never dated a colleague. You haven't? No. You've never hooked up with someone from work?
Starting point is 00:43:04 No. Ever? No. Not, not no? No. You've never hooked up with someone from work? No. Ever? No. Not no. Not someone I sat next to. Maybe not recently but you've never hooked up with someone that you work with at the same place? No.

Like you see them on the rig Yep So you'd like leave their house after a night and you'd be like, see you at work It was a big secret for a long time at this workplace I was hooking up with this guy called Chase And you'd be like, see you at work. And it was a big secret for a long time at this workplace. I was hooking up with this guy called Chase.
Starting point is 00:43:48 And it was a big secret. And we didn't want to tell anyone from work because we were kind of like, oh, let's just keep it casual. Keep it on the download. Well, that's the thrill of the chase. And, yeah, it went on for about six months. And, oh, that was good. Yeah, I'll pay that one.
Starting point is 00:44:03 I was like, are we going to overlook that excellent Chase-based pun that I just did? Sorry. No, carry on. And it all came out at the work Christmas party when we both had a few lemonades. He had a lot more than me and he declared his love for me on the microphone in front of our whole workplace. Ah, see, that's awkward. And then he spewed straight afterwards. Ah, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Right. At that point, the chase was over? The chase was over. The chase was done. It can happen. It can also end horrifically like that. Like I'm sure these cleaners hopefully have a beautiful life ahead of them. You and Chase, not so much.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Hey, no regrets. Chase was a great guy. It can get very awkward too. That's why this afternoon on 0800DALZM, we want work-based fling stories. Juicy ones. That's why this afternoon On 0800DALZM We want Work Base Fling Stories Juicy ones

And late on in the night, one of her friends comes up to me and says, you know what, she's actually got a bit of a crush on you. I'm like, oh, okay. And over the next few months, we were kind of, you know, hanging out with other people from the checkouts. We'd go out and end up always the two of us having a bit of a cuddle,

Okay, when I was 19, I got a job at a restaurant. I was a waitress and I ended up hooking up with the sous chef who was 27 and married. Oh, Stace. Sorry, how old were you?
Starting point is 00:49:02 I was 19. Right. And we kept it secret for, oh, God, a couple of months. But then we got busted making out in the walk-in cool room. Okay. Right. Who busted you? Oh, just one of the other waitresses.
Starting point is 00:49:23 Stay. Did it end his marriage? I'm actually not sure. I got fired. Oh, shit. You got fired because who fired you? Not him. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:49:37 His boss, the manager, fired me. I was waiting for Stacey to go, and we've got eight kids and we've been married for three years. No, but I did actually marry a guy that I met at another workplace about five years later. Stacey, honestly. We're not going to give you the headphones, Stacey,
Starting point is 00:49:54 but we appreciate your call, okay? Hey, what do you mean? Are you serious? Thank you. Are we giving it to her? Her story was pretty good. Okay, okay. Stacey, I think you should have the headphones, but we're going to a vote, I think Should we, Stacey, I think you should have the headphones,
Starting point is 00:50:05 but we're going to a vote, I think. Congratulations, Stacey, you've got yourself a pair of JBL live voice-activated headphones. Oh, wow, you guys are amazing. Thank you so much. You're welcome too. I wonder where she works. ZDM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.

Starting point is 00:51:18 5th of May, 97. Okay, Kristen, you were 16 in 2013 on the 5th of May. And back on that day, this topped the charts. But you only need the light when it's burning low. Only need the something when you're something low. Only know your lover when you let her go. The man that Ed Sheeran made, passenger and let her go. Happy about that?
Starting point is 00:51:42 Yeah, it's all right. It's not a banger, is it? No, Rihanna's probably better. It's not like you're going to be lit in the clubs and you go over to the DJ and you're like, oh my god, play my birthday banger. I went through a breakup at the height of that song's success. Oh no. It wasn't a good time.
Starting point is 00:51:56 That's not good vibes for you either? No. It doesn't feel like we're going to be playing Kristen's birthday banger today. Probably not. You never know. You never know what's going to happen. Hi, Ariel. Hi. Is it Ariel. Hi, Ariel. Hi.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Is it Ariel or Ariel? Ariel. Oh, that's cool. I love that name, Ariel. What's your birthday? 9th of February, 1989. Okay, Ariel, you were 16 in 2005 on the 9th of Feb, and this is your birthday banger.

Starting point is 00:52:42 2005. Have you ever heard it Ariel? I don't recognise it. Me either. This was big in Aussie. Was it? I think so, yeah. Maybe it was number one over there.
Starting point is 00:52:52 Well, there you go. That makes our decision quite simple, doesn't it? Does it? Well, doesn't it? Does it? Well, we're not voting for Passenger for birthday banner. No, Passenger's, no, it's out. And we're not voting for Nasty Girl.
Starting point is 00:53:02 I've never heard it before. My vote's for Nasty Girl. Well, cool. My vote's... Don't do that. Don't do that. We're going to the producers, and we're going to producer Ellie. Which song is taking out Birthday Banger today and giving its winner a $50 Grab One voucher?
Starting point is 00:53:18 Oh, dear. I don't like any of these songs. You never like any of them. No, I don't. What do you like other than One like any of them. No, I don't. What do you like other than One Direction? She likes Queen. Yeah, yeah. Queen, One Direction, yeah, that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Not Let Her Go, sorry. No. Oh, gosh, I hate this. Why do you always come to me? I feel like I'm watching an episode of Millionaire Hot Seat every time she tries to decide. Yeah, it's not that hard. Be adventurous. Yeah, play R not that hard. Be adventurous.
Starting point is 00:53:47 Yeah, play Rihanna SOS. Oh no, that gets played on Friday Jams all the time. Honestly, Nasty Girl.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Let New Zealand hear some Nitty. This is not the place to experiment with Nitty. To be fair, I don't know if Nasty Girl is very big in New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:54:04 How do you know you don't like it if you've never heard it? Jesus Christ, please. Okay, I don't really like Rihanna, but we're going to go with SOS. Oh, so safe. No, I do like it, and I love Mikal, and it's your birthday today. You're winning the Grab One voucher, Mikal. Mikal, congrats. A $50 Grab One voucher coming out to you.

Nitty, nitty, nasty girl. Nitty, nasty girl, the song that didn't get played. Do it. Little nasty girl. Yo, man, you see that? Damn.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, girl, I like your fever. What year? 2005. How have I lived 14 years and still never heard this song? Your life would have been so much more enriched. Next on the show. This is mean.
Starting point is 00:58:42 Producer Ben's liking it too. That's not a good indicator. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Biggest TV show at the moment. Big Bang Theory. We've talked about this. I know you love Big Bang Theory, but it's not the biggest show in the world. I hate that show. I know you're a big fan, but it's only you. Do you want me to release some other details about you like I did last night? Yeah, let's move on. Biggest show at the moment is Game of Thrones. It's huge.
Starting point is 00:59:10 Can't get away from it. Even if you don't watch it, you can't get away from it. It is every meme. It is every workplace conversation. It is everything at the moment. The last ever season I've seen on social media, the last episode apparently was the most crazy, ridiculous episode ever. Yeah, but you didn't see it.
Starting point is 00:59:27 No, because I've never seen Game of Thrones. Your mum's a big fan though, isn't she? Huge. Her and my dad fizz for this show. They just love it. They get together and they watch their pirated. It's their thing. They probably watch it naked.
Starting point is 00:59:40 You know? Game of Thrones style. One time my mum forced me to watch an episode and we're sitting there and all of a sudden there's like incest on the TV and I'm like, what are you guys making me watch? What have you guys got into since I left? This is weird. Anyway, had an idea.
Starting point is 00:59:55 My mum hates spoilers. Everyone hates spoilers. Everyone hates a spoiler, despises it. What if we gave her a call and we gave her a fake Game of Thrones spoiler? Yeah, she wouldn't. This is mean because she wouldn't know. She would just, she wouldn't know. Earlier today, I called my mother and...
Starting point is 01:00:19 This is a fake spoiler, by the way. Don't worry if you haven't seen Game of Thrones. This is a fake spoiler. We've never seen Game of Thrones, never seen it. This is a fake spoiler. My the way. Don't worry if you haven't seen Game of Thrones. This is a fake spoiler. We've never seen Game of Thrones, never seen it. This is a fake spoiler. My mum, she doesn't know that. Hello. Hi, Mum.
Starting point is 01:00:35 How are you going? Good. I was just talking to Alan and his mum is trying to organise this electoral stuff for him as well at the moment. Yeah. And apparently it needs to be in, like, really soon. When I had a look at the postal, to request a postal vote, it has to be in very soon, otherwise it's going to be too late. Yeah, Alan and I were just talking about it,
Starting point is 01:00:57 so, yeah, I'll do it when I come home next. Also, have you seen the latest episode of Game of Thrones? My word, I have. Holy shit. Did you see that coming? My word, I have. Holy shit. Did you see that coming? No, I didn't. Aiden did. I bloody didn't.
Starting point is 01:01:10 But I didn't see it coming. I had to watch it for work because we're doing this promo thing. I couldn't believe I did not see coming that Daenerys was going to die. Daenerys? She didn't die. Yeah, she died. She fell off her dragon flying into battle. No, she didn't die. Yeah, she died. She fell off her dragon flying into battle. No, she didn't.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Wait. She was with their... No, yeah, in episode four, the latest episode that's come out, she dies. Brianna, I haven't seen episode four. I've only seen episode three. For God's sake, don't tell me what's going on with episode four. I've only seen episode three. For God's sake, don't tell me what's going on with episode four. I've only seen episode three. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:01:48 We get them early. Are you kidding me? Are you just... I've been watching that for nine years and you've just told me what happened. I tell you what, I'm just about ready to get on a dragon and come over there. I actually feel really, really horrible now. I didn't mean to do that. Nine years.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Nine years, Brianna. Fair dinkum. Look, I'm ready. Also, so Jon Snow doesn't die, but he gets really bad diarrhoea in the last episode. She hasn't even seen it. Sorry, she hasn't even seen it. Hi, Mama Diet's Clint.
Starting point is 01:02:32 She's so full of shit. And you're handling this so well. I'm in the bloody hospital trying to keep quiet. And it's echoing down the bloody hallway. You know what she's doing? Someone tried to spoil Avengers Endgame for her this week, so now she's made it her life's mission to ruin everything for everybody else. I don't know shit about Game of Thrones, Mum.
Starting point is 01:02:52 That was all load of bullshit. That's not what happened. She hasn't seen it, okay? Daenerys could die, though. She could. She could die. It's Game of Thrones. Anyone could die.
Starting point is 01:03:03 And dragons are very unpredictable, Mum. Oh, it's going to be unpredictable because you're off the Christmas list. Yeah. Bye, Mum. Love you. Jesus. I love Clint. Bye.
Starting point is 01:03:17 Sid M. Spree and Clint, the podcast. You know when it's election time, politicians start getting crazy because they start, you know, promising all these crazy things that they'll do if they get into power? Yeah, it's exciting. They're like, you know, I'm going to have pigs flying in the air. But only if you vote for me. Exactly right.
Starting point is 01:03:36 And it's happening in Australia right now because there's a member of the Greens Party who is pledging a plan to get catcalling to be made illegal in Australia. By catcalling you mean like, hey, baby, nice bum. Yeah, so they want that to be. Nice bum? You can tell I don't do it. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:03:56 That was the least, I'm not saying they're good anyway, that was the least smooth one ever. Nice calves. Really good looking ankles. Anyway, I mean, that would be awesome if you could get that to be made illegal. You really suit your fringe. But not really realistic. No, you're never going to outlaw catcalling.
Starting point is 01:04:15 How are you going to police that? You can't make it illegal. But you can promise it and it might get you some votes, right? A lot of politicians do this where they just promise everything under the sun. And I thought it'd be a good idea this afternoon to get the producers in who could be politicians one day. Could be. Producer Ben. Don't want to be. Or politician
Starting point is 01:04:33 Ben. Yeah, MP Ben. Just Ben is good. And politician Ellie. Hello. Welcome. And you could be too one day, mate. I could be Prime Minister one day. Okay, well, settle down. I could be with these promises that I'm about to make. So we're all going to pledge stuff. If we were running for Parliament,
Starting point is 01:04:50 what we would promise to hopefully get into power. You go first. Enter the pulpit and give us your election speech with your political promises. All right, here we go. If I get elected, I pledge that I would make it illegal for anyone to stand up on an aeroplane before the doors have actually opened. I mean, great.
Starting point is 01:05:14 How are you going to do that? I will put policemen on all planes. You got my vote. Ellie, why don't you run for prime minister next? All right. You got my vote. Ellie, why don't you run for Prime Minister next? All right. I pledge that I'm going to impose a citizen's arrest on anyone who doesn't indicate on the road. You know that's already illegal, eh?
Starting point is 01:05:37 Yeah, I think that's a law. Yeah, I think that's already, yeah, that's a law. No, like, I want to be able to go out and go, you're arrested for those. That's good politics. You want to be a policeman. That's go, you're arrested. Smart, though. That's good politics. You want to be a policeman. You want to be a policeman. That's good politics.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Promising something that already exists. Yeah. Producer Ben, you ready to run for Parliament? No, but I've got a policy, and God damn it, I'll stand by it. All meat must only be cooked on an outdoor fire or by a four to six burner barbecue. That's it. He loves his meat. I love it. He loves his meat.
Starting point is 01:06:05 I love it. He loves his meat. You won't give me any votes from vegetarians, but you know. Don't need them. Wow, wow, that's confident. That is confident. That just leaves me. If elected Democratic Prime Minister of New Zealand,
Starting point is 01:06:18 I will outlaw all farting in the workplace. Oh, nah. Not for you, mate. It's rude. Nah. It makes me feel uncomfortable and it smells bad. Oh, he's definitely on the Paula Bennett part. Also, I will solve the housing crisis by making all houses free.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Oh, yep. Like that one. You didn't say you had to be able to back them up. You said just make some promises and award them an election. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. If you're currently online shopping stop
Starting point is 01:06:48 stop because there is a brand new fashion purchase that you need to know about if you want to be cool. You know it's up to you whether you want to be cool or not but if you want to be cool
Starting point is 01:06:55 then you need to know about these. Stop trying to make crocs happen. I'm not trying to make them happen they are happening on their own. No they are crashing and burning. Last year if you listened to this show, you will know that Bree spent a week sampling some of the best Crocs available.
Starting point is 01:07:11 You wore fluoro pink Crocs, too pink. You wore flaming Crocs all the way to Flavortown. You wore a high-heeled Croc. Why? We proved how versatile they were. We took you to the gym in them as well. You did a workout in Crocs. Why should we reminisce about these horrible times in my life? Because there's a new pair and I want to get them for you.
Starting point is 01:07:35 I don't want them. They're the hottest new Croc on the market now and it combines two fashion trends as well. Is there a flask in them? Because that's the only time I'd like to wear a croc. There could be. The latest pair of crocs come with a built-in fanny pack. What?
Starting point is 01:07:57 So the actual shoe has a fanny pack? Yeah. A bum bag. You know the sports strap that goes around the back of the croc? Sport mode, yep. No, sport mode is where you position that strap. I'm talking about the strap itself because sport mode is when you clip it on the back. Right.
Starting point is 01:08:13 But if you flip it forward, then you're in relax mode. God, this is some real in-depth croc chat. The band that goes around the back of the croc. Yes. Now you can get crocs that have a small fanny pack attached to that bit so you can store things in there. You can put your weed in there.
Starting point is 01:08:30 You could put your, if that's something that you do, that is something you could put in there. 420 blazer. I love this. This is how the website describes it. These zippered pouches can be used to store objects
Starting point is 01:08:40 such as keys, cash, and whatever dignity the wearer has left. Marijuana. Hey, that's not appropriate. These are nice shoes. Did they say that?
Starting point is 01:08:47 Yeah, they did. But this isn't the official Crocs website. This is the New York Post. Who said that? But it's cool. It's cool. I'll show them to you, actually. I'll show you.
Starting point is 01:08:55 See, look at this. They're called Crocs Beams. I don't know why, but there you go. Those Crocs need Jesus. Those Crocs need you, baby. You would make them cool. That's the other bit. No, I wouldn't. The power of you, baby. You would make them cool. That's the other bit. No, I wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:09:06 The power of you. You're cool. You're cool. And cool people can make abstract things cool. Honestly. Like nerd glasses. Mate, at some point I want to have sex again in my life and if I wear those, it ain't going to happen.
Starting point is 01:09:19 It's not going to happen with... They are walking contraception. Well, no, they're not because they've got holes in them. So don't use them as contraception. If you would like a pair of Crocs beams, obviously you won't need to pay because I'll secure a pair for you. But if you're listening at home, I can't buy them for
Starting point is 01:09:35 everybody. But they are available at the low, low price. That's the other thing. They're nice and affordable. Only $53 US for Crocs beams. That's cheaper than vans. That's the other thing. They're nice and affordable. Only $53 US for Crocs beams. That's cheaper than vans. That's all I'll say. And cooler.
Starting point is 01:09:52 Crocs with fanny packs. Are you all right? Yeah. Are you all right? Yeah. Yeah. Some guys get in front of me. ZM's Free and Clint.
