Hello everybody and welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast. Just off the bat, do you get annoyed at people who wear t-shirts for bands that they don't know? Are you the sort of person who gets fried off about that stuff? I've got bigger things to worry about. Okay. If you want to wear a t-shirt, then wear a t-shirt. So if you're wearing a, you're not the sort of person, someone's wearing like a mega death t-shirt, you're not going to go up to them and go, name your favourite two mega death albums.

To be honest, I just think those people are sad if you care that much. Right. Like, I get it if you're a fan, but it's just a T-shirt. Yeah, but I just wanted to roast producer Ellie for wearing a Jojo Rabbit T-shirt even though she hasn't seen the movie. That's not the same. That is not the same as wearing a Ben T-shirt. Ellie, the issue with you wearing that T-shirt is it's a new movie

and it's out now. So I want to know, oh, Jojo Rabbit, did you like it? Yeah. To which you would have to say. I haven't seen it, but I'm just a walking billboard, you know? Well, give Clint the other confession about that shirt, Ellie. Clint. Yeah?

What? You know the day that you were off sick? Yes. Yes. And you guys rang me five shit. Okay. You know the day that you were off sick? Yes. Yes. And you guys rang me five times. Yes. So you and Bree got some Jojo Rabbit shirt deliveries. Is that my Jojo Rabbit shirt?

Look, it wouldn't fit you, would it? Technically, there was three and you were away, which is, I mean, your own fault because you were sick. So we gave them out in the team. So it is technically yours. I'm sorry. But I've seen the movie. Yeah, do you want it back? Oh, no, Ellie, don't sit there. He's seen

one movie. He does this all the fucking time. Actually, no, that's not true. I need to get a Top Gun t-shirt now. Oh, I wish you could get a Top Gun t-shirt matching. Can we buy a motorbike? No, you can't get a Top Gun t-shirt. You took 30 years to watch the movie. I can.

I'm going to get Maverick and Ben's going to get Goose. No, I want Maverick. Are you Maverick? Yeah. And I'm Goose? Yes, because you die in the end. Spoiler alert. It's 30 years old.

Is it okay to do a spoiler about Top Gun? Yes, it's 30 years old. Back to Jojo Rabbit. Go and see the movie. It's good. I know there's rich coming from me. The guy who's 30 years old. Back to Jojo Rambeck. Go and see the movie. I know there's rich coming from me, the guy who's seen no movies. No, I'd go see Hustlers. Okay.

That's a good movie. What about Joke? Man, there's good movies out now. Joker. And there's one more that's coming out soon with Margot Robbie, Sean Ron, and Nicole Kidman.

What is that? I know what you're talking about and I really want to see it and it starts with B maybe? Behind the Shadows. Is it? No. Ballers?

No. It's like a word. It's a true story. Blow. Backdoor Babes. Bombshell. Bombshell. It's not bombshell.

Yes. Because they're all blonde. That one looks good too. That's about the inner workings of a television channel. Before we go, I do have one other thing I wanted to pitch to you. I came up with a piece of... You pitch it, I'll catch it. Okay, good.

I came up with a piece of radio that I think would be groundbreaking and I want to do on the show. Go on, lay it down. Does it involve me getting heaps and heaps of audio for one tiny segment? No. Okay, good.

Okay, so you're on board so far? Yeah. So, and take me seriously. I actually really think this would be good radio. I want to pitch you. First of all, I need to ask, your wife Lucy doesn't listen to this podcast, does she? No, she doesn't.

Okay, good. So. Not enough murder in it for her. I have a secret mission that I want you to do on the show. Yeah. So you and your wife, Lucy, have been together for how long? About five years.

About five years. You've married. Six years. You've had a baby. You've been through that amazing life achievement. Yeah. All that stuff. But you have never farted in front of each other i pitch to you i want you to secretly record

your first fart in front of your wife lucy and i'm actually serious i actually think this would be amazing radio you've been together for five years why does all your amazing radio. You've been together for five years. Why does all your amazing radio include farts? No, but hear me out. It's also recording a milestone in your relationship. No, because this is the difference. This is the difference. You think it's a milestone. Yes.

And you think that it's something that you should achieve with your partner. Whereas I believe, and so does she, we believe that it's a milestone that we don't do it. So have you farted in front of any partner before? I don't remember. I don't believe it was something that's ever been a part of my relationships. I have farted in front of Lucy before. It's not on purpose.

I want you to fart and record it and see what happens and we will discuss that amazing achievement in your life. I think it'd be good. I honestly do. Nah, bro. Are you what? Are you scared? I just don't want to subject her to that.

She has baby poo coming out of her ears. It's not going to be a big deal to her. Dude, that's not where the poo comes from. Well, she's got it coming out of her ears so much. Think on it. You think about it. I don't want to be the guy who says no straight away, but my heart says no straight away.

Can we, for the podcast video today, can we just grab this part on it and get people to vote? Nah, I don't care what they vote. You can vote, but it will have absolutely no bearing on my decision whatsoever. I like that. But don't you want to make a great piece of radio for people to listen to? Like I said, why do all your great pieces of radio include farts? Well, you said great.

That was entrapment. Cool. I'll take some time to think on it. The idea's out there now. I, for one, would love to hear that. What's today, Monday? We'll revisit it next Monday. Guys, producers, would you think that would be enjoyable? Would you like to listen to something like that?

It makes me uncomfortable that Clint looks and feels like that. No, I'm not saying, don't look at him. Don't worry about his feelings. I'm just kidding. I'm joking. Would you like to listen to something like that? It makes me uncomfortable that Clint looks and feels like that. No, I'm not saying don't look at him. Don't worry about his feelings. I'm just kidding. I'm joking. Would you think that would be interesting to listen to if you knew two people had not farted in front of each other ever for five years? There's no doubt it's great radio.

No doubt. Yes! Fuck you! I have also been on strict control from Lucy for many years that she can't be on the radio. She doesn't want to be on the radio. She doesn't have to be. Well, the audio would be her reaction. I'm not going to call her up.

Well, what about her reaction? I'd have to secretly record her. Yeah, that's fine. And then you can run it past her. You run it past her and then she gives the okay or not. Cool, we're going to go away and think on it. That's a no. You sound like my mum and dad. and then she gives the okay or not. Cool. We're going to go away and think on it. Yeah, think on it. I like that.

That's a no. You sound like my mum and dad. You know when they're like, we'll go and think about it. You're like, that's a no. It's always a no. I know people would love it. You go and strongly have a good think about it.

Cool. I will do it. I'll do it. Nice. It's a no. Have you fought in front of your partner, Brie? Tell us about that girl you took home on Friday night. Which one? It's a great place to start the podcast, everybody. See you later. Kia ora, everybody. Welcome to the show. Brie and Clint. Great to be here. Hi, Brie and Clint. Kia ora everybody.

The first thing we're going to do is we're going to give you some

made meals. We've got a whole month of made meals up for grabs every day this week on the show. That's right. We're giving away to one person right now a whole month's worth of made meals. They're ready made meals, ready in three minutes. What we're going to do is we're going to taste test them.

And without knowing what it is, try and describe the meal to you. If you can figure it out from the explanation that comes directly from our expert palette, you'll win that, a month's worth of made meals. We just came up with this game because we want to eat the real tasty food. You want to play, if that prize sounds like a video, let's start the show with it. Oh, $800 at M. And let's start the show with someone playing Friday Jams live this weekend, Jason Derulo.

Bree and Clint. This is ZM. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Get made with ZM's Bree and Clint. Let's go. Oh, we'll get you made, baby. This week we are doing blind tastings of made meals,

the ready-made meals, ready in three minutes in the microwave or 20 minutes in the oven. If you can correctly identify, roundabout, what meal we are eating based off our blindfolded description, then you're going to score for yourself a whole month of made meals. Yeah, so you get pretty much one guess. If you get it wrong, we move on to the next person. And the person with the first roundabouts guess

of what meal we're eating will get that month's worth of made meals. Blindfolds on. Let's stick them on. All right, blindfolds are on. Producer Ellie is bringing in some meals for us. I'm blindfolded in this job more than any other job, I reckon. I know.

You're almost blindfolded in this job as much as you are at home, if you know what I mean. No, I don't. Okay, I've just had a nice warm meal placed in my hands. If it helps for the people guessing. Where's my fork, Ellie? Oh, there it is. It's on a plate, and it's not in a bowl.

So it can't be soup. Am I right? Am I getting some? I don't know where to put the fork. You know, it's fair. It's quite hard to get blindfolded, isn't it? Okay, should we go to our first caller? No, we can't.

We haven't tasted anything yet. Oh, okay. We have to eat something. Okay. I'm getting tomato. I'm getting some form of mash. Something mashed. If you guys sort of... Yeah. We didn't think about this. form of mash? Something mashed? There's um

if you guys sort of We didn't think about this bit. You're currently sort of getting the side dish Clint. It tastes like mash. Oh am I not in the main dish? There's the main. Yeah there's the main. Yeah you've got it. Oh god this is a disaster. Alright Bree's on the main. Yeah have that one Bree. Oh that's delicious. Yeah.

I'm getting beefy and I'm getting onion. I know what it is. It's a beef stroganoff. Do you think it's a beef stroganoff? That's what I reckon. You reckon it's that's delicious. Yeah. I'm getting beefy and I'm getting onion. I know what it is. It's a beef stroganoff. Do you think it's a beef stroganoff? That's what I reckon. You reckon it's that? Okay. Who's our first caller?

All right, let's go to Aaron. I'm judging by your voice, Ellie. I don't think it's right. Well, who knows? Hey, Aaron, how's the day going? Yeah, good. Thanks. How are you guys?

Good, man. Have a wild guess of what you think we're eating, what this made meal is, and if you get it close enough, we're going to give you that prize. I'm going to say it's lasagna. Oh, you don't trust Bree's option of beef stroganoff. Mate, I'm telling you now, it's not a lasagna. I'm Italian. Nah, it's not lasagna.

Not a lasagna. That wasn't correct. We'll go, sorry about that, Aaron. We'll go to Lucy next. Hi, Lucy. Hi, Lucy. Hi. I think lean heavily on my beef and onion tasting.

I think I've got that correct. And then Bree's pushing you towards a stroganoff. I reckon it's like a beef stew stroganoff dish, Lucy. I think I'd have to go with what you're saying, Bree. I reckon it'd be like beef stroganoff with mash. You want to lock in beef stroganoff? Yeah. All right.

Bree and Clint, take off your blindfolds. You were right. I knew it! I knew it! I was going to be strong anywhere. Yeah, you nailed it. I was nowhere near the meal. I didn't even really get any of the meal. Okay. Congratulations Lucy. We've got a whole month of made

meals coming your way. Oh, thank you so much. They're delicious, Lucy. You'll love it. A little bit of on-the-go feedback, Ellie. I think tomorrow we need smaller plates. Okay, yeah, I can understand. So there's less area to stare at. I think we need people from the office to come feed us. Oh, okay.

That's a nice option too. That's what I reckon we need. God, this job gets better and better. These made meals are great. You can check them out at getmade.co.nz and we'll have another month's worth to give away tomorrow when we try and get made again. I'm just checking that it is beef choc-a-luck.

Yeah, no, I think it is. If there's one thing I love, it's wine. And if there's one thing I love just as much as wine, it's space. Put those two things together and you get space wine. Space wine. Wine made in space? No. Wine specifically to be drunk in space?

Wine that has been shotgunned into space. Oh, yeah. It's been launched into space by a start-up company, actually, called Space Cargo Unlimited. They've shot a dozen bottles of Bordeaux wine at the SISS. Bordeaux. Bordeaux. Bardeaux. They put a bunch of wine in a box and they shot it up to the ISS,

the International Space Station. Mm-hmm. And it's going to sit there where no one can drink it for the next however many years. Bull crap. Space astronauts are lonely, they're bored, and they love wine just as much as anybody else. Plus, that International Space Station is shared by the astronauts

and the cosmonauts. Can you imagine the Russian astronauts not tucking in on the space station? Yeah. Oh, three? Is there three people on there? No, I'm pretty sure there's six. Well, there's plenty, yeah. I think there's six people on there.

I think there's three men and three women. And they would not have alcohol up there. No, not until the space wine gets there. Anyway, they want to pretty much research how the space radiation and lack of gravity affects the wine and the impact on the yeast and bacteria in the wine over time. Oh, okay. Right, so it is actually for a science experiment.

Yeah, it is actually for a science experiment. I wonder, surely you're allowed to drink in space every now and then? Well, that's a good question. Has astronauts ever gotten drunk in space? Someone's surely done that experiment. Because you know how they say that you don't get drunk when you're on an aeroplane as well? And then when you land, or you do get drunk, but then when you land... Don't they say you get drunk way faster?

Yeah, and then when you land it hits you twice as hard or something. Oh. How hard would it go in space? Imagine coming back down to space. Yeah, you'd have to have like one tiny shot of something. Here's the official results. Alcohol is not permitted on board the International Space Station for consumption. Okay.

What? That's only out there for experiments. God. Fun police. Also. I mean, you can fly around and do all that fun stuff, but no alcohol. Anyway, there is a dozen Bordeaux. Birdo?

Bernot. Oh, so you were correcting me and you don't even there is a dozen Bordeaux. Birdo? Bordeaux. Oh, so you were correcting me and you don't even know. It's Bordeaux. Pretty sure. How do you say the real fancy sparkling wine, M-O-E-T, how do you say it? Moet. Isn't it? What about Moe?

No, that's how you say it. That's how you say what? That's how you, Moe? Yeah. No, it's Moet. What about Moe? No, that's how you say it. That's how you say what? That's how you... Moe? Yeah. No, it's Moe. What about Moe? Yeah, but that's the slang for it.

Oh. Anyway, it's not Moe that's going to space. It's Bordeaux. They couldn't afford Moe. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio.

This is... The latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Coming to us live from the E! People's Choice Awards this afternoon, Dean McCarthy, good afternoon. Hello. Good afternoon, everyone. Yeah, we've just finished the red carpet. The show started, yeah, not long ago.

So if you're not watching E! right now, turn it on. It's fabulous. It's all happening. Who's the most famous person you've seen on the red carpet today? I could have high-fived Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian today. They walked straight past me. They didn't stop for an interview, but it was on my Instagram as they walked past. Still counts.

So beautiful. Still counts. Still counts. Thank you. It counts. They didn't bring Kanye down the red carpet with them today, did they? No, I didn't see Kanye. But when the Kardashians all turned up, all three of the, you know, Kourtney, Khloe, Kim,

all walked down together with Kris and also her boyfriend, Corey Gamble, the crowd went so berserk. It was wild. I had the weirdest dream about you and Corey Gamble the other night, that you were good mates with him. It was real strange, Jean. Anyway, moving on. I agree.

That's so random. Any other gosh to bring us from the red carpet this afternoon, Dean? Gosh, I guess it was just kind of like a really fun award show, like because you've got 43 different categories, everything from best movie, best music, social media stars. Terry Crews was there. All the cast of Vanderpump Rules were there. Oh, my God.

I've got Gwen Stefani. She's my highlight of the day, though. She's getting younger. Yeah. I feel like she's the Benjamin Button of Hollywood. She gets younger in the weirdest of ways. Anyone on the red carpet or anyone there at the event that you've seen that you've also kissed?

Yes. Ooh, Dane. Is that all we get, just a yes? There are a couple of people. Is Ross Boss still there? That's Steve McCarthy. He's our Hollywood correspondent. He's live from the E! Red Carpet for the People's Choice Awards

this afternoon, brought to you by Amplify Kombucha. Taste Amplified. ZM, Spree and Clint, the podcast. The story out today regarding only children. Now, you're not an only child, are you, Brie? Sometimes I wished I was. You're one of... I'm just kidding.

One of three? One of three. I'm the middle child, which I've seen a few studies out about that recently too. What does it say about the middle child? Just saying that the middle child is confirmed the worst child. Really? Yeah. Or the second child, middle child, or the second.

Worst child to be or worst child to have? Like, who's it worse for, you or the parents? The parents. Right, okay. Yeah, apparently. I'm the eldest of four, so this doesn't really affect me either. The producers either produce, no, they're not. No, neither of them are.

No, just confirming, no. No, Ben's got a sister. No, only children in the team. Ellie's got a sister. So this story doesn't really affect us personally, but it's quite a rough headline if you are an only child. So feel free to change stations just quickly now if you don't want to hear the truth.

Yeah, I've read this headline. It is pretty harsh. I'll just give you the way it is. Only children more likely to be obese. And it's thanks to their mums. So actually, it's a double whammy. It's a whack at the only child and it's a whack at the mum as well.

Gee, so both sides are copying it. So this is a study that's been done. Yeah, a new study has found that parents of only children tend to make worse food choices, drink more sugary beverages and are more likely to eat in front of the TV. What? It doesn't say why in the study. But I mean, straight away away your mind goes to,

as someone who's not an only child, of course you're going to be more obese. There's more food around. Well, you don't have to fight off. You don't have to fight for your food. When fish and chips goes down on a Friday night, you're not desperately scraping as many chips towards your side of the newspaper as possible

because you know your brothers and sisters aren't going to eat it before you because you don't have any. My brother to this day, I can't even sit down and eat a meal with him sometimes because he eats it so damn fast. And they reckon, because I read up on what that's from, and they reckon it's when you're having to fight for your food when you're a kid.

Is he oldest or youngest? He's youngest. No, that's exactly what it is. That's exactly what it is. So he's got you and your sister above him, hoovering all the food. And we were bitches. Exactly. So he can't fight you off physically at that age, so he

has to get as much sustenance as possible. They reckon that's actually what it is. That, and then also your mind goes to, well, if you're the only child, your parents just give you everything, because who else are they going to give it to? And I'm generalising here. We're not only children so we don't know but I mean,

if you look at it, if there's only one, they probably do get more spoiled. I'm the father of an only child. I mean, she's only four months old so she hasn't had a chance to have a sibling yet

but it does make you go, oh, do we stop at one? Because I mean, I'd like to... Not for the obese thing, by the way. I'm not gauging that opinion.

Yeah, I was going to say, don't take that study too seriously. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm basing that off the life experience of a child. It doesn't really matter at the end of the day. What?

Whether you have, whether you're an only child or, it matters whether you're from a good family. That's the thing. Yeah, it does. It's going to have the biggest impact. But according to this story... Do you think it's because,

and I mean, I don't know because I'm not an only child. Do you think it's because, I mean, my memories of being a child, I would play constantly outside games and stuff with my brothers and sisters, my brother and sister. I'd constantly be playing. Yeah. Do you reckon it makes it harder if you're an only child? Possibly.

Like, you know what I mean? Because you can't play, I mean because you can't play I mean you can't play tennis by yourself well I guess you can hit it up against the wall but that gets boring after a while you can't play soccer by yourself well I guess you can kick it against the wall yeah you know what I mean does it make it less maybe desirable to go play

how punishing must it be on those parents of only child too because kids have got so much energy and you've just constantly got to be out there and they're like, let's play again. And you're like, I just want to drink some wine. Yeah, literally. My mum said to me, she goes, when your brother was born, it was a blessing because you were a handful and I could just palm him off to you in the end.

Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. I wanted you to call through 0800DIALZM with your awkward injuries and by that I mean maybe it's in a sensitive area that you might feel awkward telling someone that you've injured. What if you were doing something awkward when you received the injury to a non-awkward place? Well, that works too.

That works too. That's not the case for this teenager and I did not know that this could actually happen. I've never heard of this before. But a teenager from Massachusetts was left with fractured testicles. Oh! Yes. Oh, you can fracture those? I didn't realise you could, but you can.

After a ball had hit him in the groin during a lacrosse game uh he's 17 year 17 years old and he had not been wearing a protective guard so there is a lesson for all the boys out there to be putting on your cups because they do a good job how do you fracture them that's so that's soft i've heard of rupturing one before. So it's pretty much the same thing. Oh, okay. And I think, yeah, because it says here, when the ball struck him at high speed, rupturing both of them. Both.

The incident then followed with significant pain in that area. He was removed from the game and he was then later taken to hospital. Apparently blood flow was normal meaning that he had to be kept for observation because he was still in excruciating pain. And then they were talking about

draining the fluid from around the family eschewals. Yeah, I got the picture. Anyway, it was quite an intense injury. Yeah, and quite an awkward one too. But can you imagine? Yeah. People are like, oh, what's wrong with you?

I see you got stretched off from the lacrosse game at the high school. Tell us what happened. I don't imagine you'd feel like walking. So you'd probably be in a wheelchair for a bit. I don't think he could walk. I think it was that bad. And then when people say to you, oh, because you wouldn't have any obvious injuries to your legs, they'd say, oh, why are be in a wheelchair for a bit. I don't think he could walk I think it was that bad. And then when people say to you oh because you wouldn't have any obvious injuries to your legs they'd say oh why are you in a wheelchair and that would be an awkward injury

to have to share with them. Gives a whole new meaning to blue balls doesn't it. Already we've had someone call through who would like to remain anonymous. You have an awkward injury you'd like to tell us about, Anonymous. Yeah, yeah. Speaking of testicular issues. Yes. I was probably in primary school at the time, and a couple of mates were like, oh, we'll tell you to climb the flagpole.

And so I chimney up the pole. The teachers start coming, and I'm like, oh, no. So I start sliding down and catch the old nether regions on the little tie at the bottom that they tie the rope up with. I know the one. Oh! Yeah. Yeah, it's old.

That wasn't the most fun time of my life. Oh! Oh, what happened? Eleven stitches later. Anonymous? You had 11 stitches where? Actually, I probably shouldn't ask that. I'm assuming.

Just under the testicle region. Oh, the gooch. You had stitches in the testicle region. Oh, the gooch. You had stitches in the gooch. Stitches in the gooch. At least it wasn't in the actual flagpole itself, I guess. Oh, God. At least we didn't lose any of that. That's fine.

Jeez, you poor thing. I lost a testicle for my troubles. You lost one as well? Yeah. Oh, bless you. Wow, so you're permanently flying at half mast then? Permanently flying solo. That's the one.

Yeah. Thanks so much for calling and telling your story. I mean, oh. No worries. I'm glad everyone got a good laugh. I don't even have balls and mine are hurting. Do you want to take more of these stories? Because we can stop there.

They're quite tough to listen to. Nah, bring them on. They're awkward injuries, not just of the male variety. I'll share one. I've had one happen to me. Okay, you share yours. They're awkward injuries, not just of the male variety. I'll share one. I've had one happen to me. Mm-hmm. Okay, you share yours. I'll share it after we come back.

Let's see what we get. 0800 Dial ZM. What are your awkward injury stories? Or you can text us on 9696. ZM Spree in Clint, the podcast. We're talking about awkward injuries this afternoon after a guy, teenager rather, in Massachusetts has copped an injury so bad that they're saying he's technically fractured the family jewels. Burst them.

Which I didn't realise that could happen. Yeah. There are a lot of texts on that topic that we can't read out. Oh, there's more texts we can't read out. Oh, there's more texts we can't read out. And there are more texts that we can't read out. But we are looking for awkward injury stories that we can tell. Should we talk to Natalia first? Yeah, let's talk to Natalia.

Natalia's been screened. Natalia is safe and ready to go. Hi, Natalia. Hello. What happened to you? Was it awkward? Was it an injury? Tell us.

It was. Afterwards it was awkward. What happened is I went to Speedway and this big chunk of clay come flying over the fence and now my right boob, making the whole thing turn bright purple and blue and it was so madly bruised. You got a chunk of dirt at the Speedway into the boob. Yeah.

You okay? Yeah, it's fine. My girlfriend wanted to see it, so she had a look, wanted her mum to see it and her auntie. So everyone wanted to see the damn boob. Then she whips out a phone, takes a photo, sends it to her sister. The whole world gets to see it. How long did it take to go away?

Oh, about two months. It took ages. That's some deep bruising. And it went all lumpy and really weird, so I went to the doctor. Is it all good? The photos, did they have to and yeah. Did the photos, did they have to get both boobs in the photo

you know for reference? No! I wouldn't allow that. Thanks Natalia, that is an awkward injury. There's one off the text machine that we can read here from someone who said

they went home after work and they were pulling up some weeds and everything was all good. But then they work up at 4 a.m. with burning nether regions and they went to A&E and it turns out they had been pulling nightshade.

And see, I don't understand. Oh, so why? No, wait, wait, wait. So no. There's a missing link, right? No. The one part I'm asking is obviously. Yeah. What were you doing? That's the missing link, right? No. The one part I'm asking is obviously what were you doing? That's the missing link I'm talking about.

So either you were gardening nude or you were gardening without gloves and then you've gone inside and gone downtown. I think it's the latter of those two. Or there's a third option too that you like to wear your gardening gloves to bed. But also who's not having a shower before going to bed if they're gardening? Maybe they just pulled weeds

barehanded and then they went into the toilet and just did that business. Maybe that's... Because that happened to me earlier this year. Is this the one you were going to tell?

No, that's not the one. You can choose. Do you want to tell the deep heat one or do you want to tell the other one? Oh, the deep heat one's probably better. Go on then. I hurt my ankle

and I decided I would put deep heat on my ankle. And it'd been a long time since I'd used that product and I put deep heat on my ankle. It was all good. It helped. And then it kind of, you know, I forgot about it. And at the time, it was that time of the month and I went to do something that ladies do, you know,

where you change something over that time of the month. Didn't wash my hands, and it was instant fire crotch. I forgot how graphic that story is, like how many... It's just a woman doing womanly things. With deep heat. She's coming this January the 5th. Flint, the podcast. ZM. ZM presents Tones and I. Play safe. Get it for me, get it for me. She's coming this January the 5th. Tones and I is going to play Bay Park Arena in Tauranga,

her only New Zealand show with special guest Thea. It's an all-ages show. Tickets are available from theticketfairy.com. And we have double passes to give away this week. This is going to be one of the best gigs of next year, I reckon. To win your double pass to be there, you need to play Tones and Try. It's a pretty simple game. I mean, this is going to go like in probably two seconds

because, I mean, very simple. I have zero faith in how fast this game is going to go. Bree, every day this week, will be attempting to play a song on the keyboard. She has a guide track playing in her ear that she can hear and no one else can. That's how I learned how to play the keyboard in the first place. These songs are all songs that we play here on ZM

and if you can guess what that song is, we'll give you a double pass to go along. As simple as that. Look, bit of a warning. We have been practising and I'm worse than what I thought. I'm going to kick this off, the guide track, and you're going to give it a go. Yeah, just warming up.

And as soon as you think you know what that song is, 0800 dials at him. I need a bit more volume, please. You need a bit more volume where? I need a bit more volume on my board. No, you've got plenty of volume. I like to play. You've got plenty of volume. I like to play. You've got plenty of volume.

I like to, I'm an artist. Oh, see that? I did that. Here we go. What song is Brie attempting to play? Okay, hold on, wait. I need to get into the mindset. Yep, okay, go. Now, even as someone who knows what the song is,

I can't hear a single note in there. Oh, come on. I can't hear a single note. I can't hear a single note. there. Oh, come on. I can't hear a single note. I can't hear a single note. I think pretty good. We're going to take someone live to ear right now who's going to have a guess at this. Hello, ZM.

Who's this? Hello. Hello. What song do you think Brie was playing on the keyboard for a double pass to Tones and I? I literally couldn't tell you. Come on. You can give it one more go.

Let me play it for her one more time. All right, play it one more time. Yeah. All right, are you ready? Yep, it's in here. No, it's in Greek. Sorry. Thank you.

0800 dials it in. Matthew's here. Hi, Matthew. Hi, Matty. Oh, how's it going? Now, do you need to hear it again? Yes, please. All right, here it is. Hi, Matty. Oh, how's it going? Now, do you need to hear it again? Ah, yes, please. Alright. Here it is. You sound so

disappointed. The last bit throws you off, but there's a bit in the middle. Yeah, I reckon you shouldn't do the last bit. There's a bit in the middle that I think is in the way. Matthew, you got an answer for us for Double Pass the Tones and I? Carly. No, it's not Carly. Good guess, though. Good guess.

Good guess. Tessa, hi. Hi there. You must have heard something in there, Tessa. You got anything for us? I think it's Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. I was afraid I was going to say that. No, but that's a great guess.

Thank you, Tessa. Let's go to Mia. Hey, Mia. Hi. What is it, girl? Come on, tell us. It's a double pass up for Graves. You guys have set up fake callers to play with me, haven't you? I know I played

it really well. Yeah, it's us that are messing with people here. Mia, what's the song? Is it Seven Rings by Ariana Grande? We're getting closer. Ready? I can even play one part of it that I think gives it away to the next caller. Okay, go on then. Is that it?

Peter, does that solve the riddle for you? Hi, what is it? Is it the new Dua Lipa one? No, not that. Sorry, Peter. You know, without the music, it doesn't sound as good, like when you're not playing the song in my ear. Kelly, what have you got for us?

A double pass of tones and I. You've got to have this. Is it Sam Smith, How Do You Sleep? No. Thank you, though. Can I give out a clue? Let's give out a clue that it's a female. It's a female solo artist.

Female solo artist. Gareth, does that throw your guess off? Would you be able to give it like a little hum to it when you tell? Okay, are you ready? Yeah, play along a little hum to it when you tell? Okay, okay, you ready? Yeah, play along as you hum. Ready? Yeah.

I don't think this is going to help. Go on. No, I can't remember it. You're going to have to give me the song, okay? Okay. What do you got, Gareth? Oh, would it be something Miley Cyrus or anything? Sorry, Gareth.

Am I only taking one more guess? No. We're taking one more guess. This is your fault because no one can figure it out. I think that gave it away. You don't want to make it too easy. Sarah, female solo artist for a double pass at Tones and I. Who is it? Is it

Dance Blankie? Oh, no. That's a good guess, though, because we are giving away tickets to Tones and I. Maddie, we'll do one more. Maddie, what's the song? Is it Billie Eilish, Bird Guy? Yes, it is! See? See? Maddie, you're going along to see Tones and I live in the mountain this summer.

Congratulations. Oh, my God. You killed it, Maddie. It gave it away. Something died. See, it wasn't that easy. It was too easy. We may play this game again tomorrow Oh, we're playing it tomorrow

It's called Tones and I Tones and Try ZM Spree and Clint The Podcast Here on the Blee and Crunch Show We have a competitive advantage We know something that other shows don't know We know for a fact that before the end of the year

A Friends reunion will be announced that other shows don't know. We know for a fact that before the end of the year, a Friends reunion will be announced. I have no part in that statement that Clint just made so that if people get disappointed, please direct all your complaints to clintonroberts at nzme.co.nz. I'm offering you the chance to get on board, something that is absolutely happening, and just ride the coattails of my success, baby. I know this for a fact and I'm putting it out there now.

In fact, I've gone as far as to go on the record with that statement. You may remember this from about a month ago. Just mark this in your diary, my prediction. It's on its way and it will be announced before the end of the year. Whoa, that's a big prediction. We'll see. Yeah, I do recall. It wasn't a month ago.

You're exaggerating. It was probably like two weeks ago. But then I also made this bet with you on air. If Friends announce that they're doing an actual show reboot before the end of the year and you're right, I will eat cat food. Deal. And if you're wrong, you have to eat cat food. Deal. And if you're wrong,

you have to eat cat food. Yeah, deal. Deal. Deal. So one of us is eating cat food before the end of the year. I hope you like jelly meat because we've got some news. Over the weekend, announced

officially on Courtney Cox's Instagram account she caught up with Matthew Perry who played Chandler and they posted a photo together which is more evidence more evidence to support

my theory the human version of clickbait. No I'm not. You are a human clickbait ad. No I'm not. You are a human clickbait ad. No, I'm not. No, I'm a massive Friends fan and what you're doing to me is putting me through emotional turmoil and I'm sick of it. You should be happy because I've uncovered the secret.

What other evidence do we have now? So we've got the Monica and Chandler selfie that went live three days ago. Yeah, they're friends. Yeah. Didn't you watch the TV show? Yeah, they're friends and they're getting ready for the reunion. We've got Jennifer Aniston who went on The Ellen Show and hooked up with Ellen live on TV.

She did an interview with, who's that radio guy's name? Howard Stern. And she said her and the cast are working on something together right now. Clickbait. Plus, they've done so much media together. Why would they bother if they weren't getting the world ready for the biggest television announcement of the century, and that is that there is a Friends reunion on the way.

Well, you better hope that it's in the next however many weeks before the end of the year, because if it's not before the end of the year, you're eating cat food. All right, should we add a little bit more to it? What? Should we sprinkle some cat biscuits on top of it? Mate, I used to eat cat biscuits all the time.

I'm fine with it. Let's have a cheeky game of Trash or Treasure this afternoon, shall we? Trash or Treasure? It's the game where you need to guess how much stuff is worth, and if you can, you'll win for yourself, some free mobile fuel. Yeah, pretty simple. Who's playing this afternoon? Laura's going to play.

Hi, Laura. Hi, Laura. Hi. Have you heard the game before? Yeah. Okay, perfect. You'll be a pro at this. Here comes your very first item.

We need to know from you whether this is trash worth under five grand or treasure worth over five grand. Good luck. It looks like a real kit for killing vampires. I have a vampire defence kit. I think the vampire defence kit's over 100 years old. My grandpa got it in 1960, and then I got it when he passed away.

Whoa. Vampire defence kit. From what I can see, it's got a stake in there. Yeah, the stake has got a crucifix on top of it. Some garlic. A few other bits and pieces. Looks like a mirror. If you wanted to shine. Some garlic. A few other bits and pieces. If you wanted to shine some light at the vampire, it's all wood.

Trash or treasure? What do you think? Worth over 5K or under 5K? Under. Under 5K, the vampire defence kit. From when did they say? 1960 something. No, it's 100 years old.

Oh, Jesus. All right. Here we go. The last one of these that was publicly sold at a major auction house sold for over $25,000. Oh, that's treasure. 25K. That's all right. Here comes your next item.

I've got a pair of LeBron autographed shoes. They're the 2004 All-Star Game ones, and they're a limited edition. Back in 2004 when I was a kid, I was at one of the Cavs games. I saw him coming, didn't have anything to sign, so I took him right off my feet, tossed it to him, he signed them, and tossed them right back. Wait, so they're not even his actual shoes? No, they're from the LeBron collection,

but they have been worn by this guy. In fact, he was wearing them when he got LeBron to sign them. I mean, that's a cool story, but they're old sneakers. They're someone else's shoes. Is that trash or treasure, Laura? Trash. All right, locking in trash

with under 5K. You need this to stay in the game. We're looking at about $200. Yeah, you're right. It's stinky old sneakers. Okay, one more. You get this right, you win. You get this wrong,

Carla, who is standing by, will get your mobile fuel for doing absolutely nothing. Okay, one more. You get this right, you win. You get this wrong, Carla, who is standing by, will get your mobile fuel for doing absolutely nothing. Good luck, Laura. And look at my Terminator 3 props. These torsos were used in the beginning of the film when Schwarzenegger's walking through the Skynet manufacturing facility and these are all being made. Okay.

That's cool. Props from the actual Terminator movie. It's Terminator bodies. Like you imagine like a little window inside the Terminator. They look like robots. Yeah, yeah. How much is that? Is that trash or is that treasure?

They're props from the film. Treasure? Locking in treasure worth over 5K. Probably 3,500 apiece. Now, this is interesting because there are $3,500, but there is three of them, which brings it to a grand total of $10,500. You've got the fuel.

You've done it. Congrats, Laura. We'll get the mobile fuel out to you ASAP. Thank you. No problems. Zid M Spree in Clint, the podcast. Has a flatmate screwed you over? I'm sure there's plenty of stories out there

and we will get to those in a second. But this one takes the cake because not only were they flatmates, they were also exes. Oh. So a man has been caught listing out his ex-girlfriend's flat to rent before swiping the cash and fleeing overseas. Okay. So what went down, so there was this guy and this girl

and they dated for six years. Yeah. A long time. They broke up at the end of last year and he started seeing someone else but they remained friends, him and his ex. Did they remain living together? No. No, okay.

No, so he moved out and then he started seeing someone else, but he remained friends with his ex. Yeah. Anyway, that relationship broke up and she so kindly said, hey, you can move back in with me while you figure out what you want to do. Oh, that takes a big person. Definitely takes a big person. I mean, they dated for six years, so they were obviously, you know,

they ended on good terms. And he moved into one of the rooms that was her flat, in her flat. Anyway, he started to post ads on Gumtree, which is like Trade Me, saying that he had a room to rent. Yeah. Or it was the whole flat actually, I believe, saying that the whole flat was up for rent and he started taking deposits from people

who wanted to move into the flat. Well, she was still living in it. So she was still living there. Yeah. He was still living there. Yeah. He's posted on Gumtree saying, I've got this flat, it's available

at this time. Which I think was a month later. And he actually took $744 off one person. He took $1400 off another person. He took a lot of money from a lot of people. So let me get it straight.

Was he never going to let them have the flat? No. It was fraudulent. Oh right. Okay. So he was just setting up fraud deals with people. Yeah. No one was ever going to actually move in. No. So he was showing people through the flat saying you can rent this. This is how much it is. What an idiot.

But you need to send me a deposit. Yeah. He's delusional. So all these people sent him money and then he collected all this money and then he disappeared. So he got the hell out of there. There's the genius in his plan. Exactly. I was like, mate, these people know where you live.

They're going to show up with their moving truck and their fridge and their bed and you're still going to be there. Guess who still does live there? His ex. His ex who has to cop all the brunt from all these angry people. Anyway, he legged it and eventually the cops tracked him down, found him,

and now he's serving one year behind bars. Oh, he went to prison for it? Yeah, it's fraud. You can't do that. Yeah, but I feel like it's quite hard to go to prison these days. Like, I feel like you can do a lot of stuff and they're like,

that's home detention. He goes, cool, can you sentence me to live with my ex? She's got a real nice place. Plus I've got some people coming to look through it this afternoon, actually. I'm looking to rent it out. I want to know from people on 0800DIALSATM,

has this ever happened to you in a flat? Has a flatmate ever screwed you over? Maybe you found out that they were gypping you on the electricity or doing the dirty on something else or maybe they told you rent was a certain amount and then you saw online that it was actually cheaper. Were they running it? That happened to a friend of mine. What, someone?

So these friends of mine were all living in Sydney. There was like five of them living in this flat and one of the people moved out and this is what people do and then someone applied for the room and they said, oh, it costs $290 a week. Yeah. Which in fact, like to make up the rest of the rent, it wouldn't be that much. But then they bring all of their rents down.

If you've got the lease, like you can really sit it at whatever you want. You just have complete control over those people because they never actually see the bills coming in and coming out. Well, that's it. I want to hear like... This doesn't make it right though. Yeah. I don't think so.

Were they running a tinny house out of the garage? That's what I want to hear from. Oh, $800 at him. Bree and Clint, the podcast. When is the flatmate done the dirty on you? After a story has come out about a guy who moved back in with his ex because she was so graciously allowed him to move back into her flat for a couple of weeks while he sorted his stuff out.

And he decided he would put on Gumtree an ad and say, this flat is up for rent. And then he would show people through the flat, take their security bond, and then never talk to them again. And that's why you never live with your ex. We talked about this the other week, alright? It's not a good idea. It never ends well. Some of the texts coming

through, oh, I tell you, it's gonna, I'm just warning you, this is gonna infuriate some people. Okay, let's start with Nicole. Hey, Nicole. Hey. Nicole, tell us, what did your flatmate do to you? So, we had a friend, her friend came and stayed

and racked up a phone bill, nearly three grand, ringing her family in the islands and then just went left and never paid it and then never told anyone and it was under my name. So I got lumbered with the bill. Three months later, bailiff's turn up. Yeah. Nicole, you're just on a landline, is that correct?

No, I'm on a mobile. Oh. Oh, sorry, no, no, yes, it on a landline, is that correct? No, I'm on a mobile. Oh. Oh, sorry. No, no. Yes, it was a landline. Sorry. Oh, the bill was on a landline. Right, right, right, right, right, right.

Yeah, sorry. It was before mobile. But was she a guest or was she actually living there? No, she was a guest and she was staying with my flatmate who was her cousin or someone like that. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And she just rang and rang and rang.

And my flatmate knew and just said, oh, you know, that's fine. You can use the phone. But never told anyone. Some long-distance phone calls. This one makes me angry. Someone texted through and they said, my old flatmate offered to manage all of our flat bill accounts, like Sky, Internet Power, flat dinners, et cetera, and we would just transfer her the money

when the bills came through each month. After months of speculating between us why the bills were so expensive, we realised she was charging us extra each month and living bill-free and profiting to help support her drinking lifestyle at uni. Oh, you're speculating on the drinking part. But that there is a classic. If you're doing the books, you can cook the books. What?

And some people will tack on an extra $10 or $15 per flatmate a week as like an office fee. They'll go, well, I'm managing the bills. I deal with everything. So why shouldn't I get paid a little bit? I don't know, right? I don't know. Jason's here. Hey, Jason. Oh, hey. Jason, tell us what your flatmate did to you.

Well, it was my very first experience flatting, and I knew one of the guys that we were going flatting with, but into a flat of six people. One of them got nominated as the head flatmate and we all paid our rent to him and then he paid the lump sum to the property owner. We got about three months down the track, one of the flatmates said to me, hey, I got a call from the property owner. They said they haven't received any of our rent for three months. He's been pocketing it. For three months. You're not the only one who's called through with a story like this, Jason. It is becoming really, really common. This might make you feel better.

Someone texted through and they said that someone didn't pay the whole house entire rent for a whole year, so it was $25,000. Wow. Who are these landlords who are not checking the payments for 12 months? How rich are they? Finally, Anonymous, when did a flatmate screw you over? We had a tenant in our house for six months and she dipped us around for a wee while with money

and finally got rid of her a week or so ago and then we get a phone call from somebody to say that she had set up a fake email address in our name, trying to pretend that we were chasing people for money on her behalf and that they needed to pay ASAP or we were taking this to the police, et cetera, et cetera. Who are these people, honestly? You've got a crazy person that was living with you.

You literally lived with a crazy person. When did you realise? We didn't actually live with her, thankfully. She was renting our house and we realised just a couple of days ago and she's moved out of our house. Been out of our house for two weeks now. Well, that anonymous,

that will teach you to have an investment property, won't it? Yeah, absolutely. I'm trying to get rid of it. And I will get you that money, Anonymous. I promise. I think all we've learned from this is don't flat. It's too much effort. Just go and buy a house.

They're cheap, aren't they? Just go and buy yourself a house and live by yourself. They're real cheap, especially in Auckland. Yeah, I heard that too. They're real cheap. Yeah, Auckland's super cheap. And good too. ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.

This is a classic. T-Pain's alright. You've got T-Pain and he's buying the bartender drinks. Then you've got Akon. He don't smoke, don't drink. That's why he don't be by the bar, baby. He's ready to drive you home. Oh, it's got everything inside that song.

It's not my favourite T-Pain song. It's alright. I think we're going to have a few better contenders than that one, unfortunately. We'll see what we get. Let's talk to Claire. Hi, Claire. Hi, Claire. Hi.

Love it, love it. You gotta love it, right? This was such a great comeback song for her. It was amazing and It was great. And a good birthday banger. Okay, Serena, which song do you think should win birthday banger this afternoon? To be honest, I think we could go with the rock and roll one. Me too, Serena.

Yeah, I'm a fan of the second option. We built this city, baby. Serena, you and I disagree because I'm not going past Teddy Pendergrass. I'm not going past T-Pain in Bartender. Oh, you're sure? Yeah. Yeah, it's what you and I disagree because I'm not going past Titty Pendergrass. I'm not going past T-Pain in Bartender. Oh, you're sure? Yeah. That's my vote. Serena, I love it. We built this city.

This is what it's about. Classic rock. Rolling Stones. Rolling Stones' number one song for the worst songs of the 1980s. You know what? They were all on drugs back then. They don't know what they were talking about. If Serena gets a vote, then that's

the way it's gone. Are you giving Serena a vote? I'm not going to ask for her vote and then disregard it, am I? We do that all the time. Just so you know, Serena, this is your fault, okay? Thanks. I'm not complaining, though. Nice work, Serenaena it's Claire's birthday

bigger congratulations woohoo thank you yes Claire Say you don't know me, I'll recognize my face. Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place. Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight. Too many runaways, eating up the night. Mark Coney plays the bumper.

Oh, don't you give me that. Technically it was you. If that's the case then, oh, whoops. Oh, ended early. Oh, whoopsie. That's the first time we've ever done that. One of the worst birthday bangers we've ever chosen. Bree and Clint, ZM.

Bree and Clint, the podcast, ZM. We have breaking bird news this afternoon. The hoiho, or yellow-eyed penguin, has been crowned New Zealand's bird of the year. That's the bird of the year, everybody. Congratulations. Now, we wouldn't normally bring you much bird news on this show, but for some reason, New Zealanders go absolutely batshit

for the bird of the year. Some stats from this year's event, New Zealanders go absolutely batshit for the bird of the year. Some stats from this year's event. The hoiho narrowly beat out the kakopo. The two birds were neck and neck or bill and bill for much of the two-week competition. But the hoiho or yellow-eyed penguin came through in the end with the win. So congratulations, first of all. Second of all, God, we care a lot about this competition.

You know, once Bree, I set a radio competition to try and rig the Bird of the Year competition. I was like, let's see if we can do this. Let's see if we can get a seagull to win it. What kind of New Zealander are you? Well, this is what I thought it was. What a horrible thing to do to the Kiwi people. I thought it was a crack up thing to do.

People care about this a lot. I had a girl last week attack me in a bar and she said, who are you voting for in Bird of the Year? And I was like, whoa. I was like, do I know you? She's like, no, but I know you and as someone that I know

that works on the radio, you need to stand up for the kakapo. Oh right, so she's a kakapo person. Yeah, because they're endangered. And I said to her, you have my word. Kakapos are endangered. That's what she said. Sorry, I'm thinking of the pukeko.

No one's voting pukeko for bird of the year. There's like hardly any of them left. No, I know. I get it. It's about conservation and it's about raising awareness, but things get heated, man. Like there's campaigns out there. There's smear campaigns.

There's people out there going like, don't vote Kiwi. He's a piece of shit. Is a smear campaign in Bird of the Year just where they crap all over people's cars? I think that's exactly what it is. To celebrate, we're right behind it. Don't everybody accuse us of not being behind this competition. To celebrate the hoi ho, the bird of the year, of which there is only 225 pairs remaining. It is the

world's most endangered penguin. Right. We have the sound of the hoiho to bring you this afternoon. Okay, great. This is New Zealand's 2019 bird of the Year. How come none of our birds can fly? ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. An interesting stat out today that says that girls are just as good at maths as boys. And when I saw this news article, I didn't realise that it was a thing that boys were meant to be better than girls.

I didn't know that we were, I didn't know we'd ranked each other that way. Did you? Did you know that boys were meant to be the better maths? I didn't know that, no. Researchers want to put an end to the myths that boys are better at maths than girls after a new study found there is absolutely no difference between

them, which I think is fantastic. I think that's the message that should be being promoted. And I think we should put that to the test this afternoon, Brie, with a live maths test. Honestly, I didn't sign up for this. I don't want to test my maths ability. I've said on this show multiple times it's my weakest subject. Yeah, but you need to because you

now are representing all women in this maths test. Can't we pick Ellie? I'm also really bad And she also, she wrote the question so that would be a fair test. But don't worry because the person you're going up against representing all men is me

Okay? Yeah well that does make me feel a little bit more comfortable. The man who said on air one time, I'm pretty sure it's 60-30. Oh, it's 90. Oh, she's on a roll already. Nice. Well done. Producer Ali has three maths questions for us.

I do. And feel free to play along at home and see if you are a maths genius. And this will decide once and for all, Bree, who's better at maths, men or women? All right. We, Brie and Clint, are on air weekdays, 3 till 7pm. Yes. If Ross Boss made us do one more hour per day, what would the percentage increase be? Got it.

Brie's looking at me very blank. Come on. What percentage increase be? Got it. Brie's looking at me very blank. Hold on. Are we ready to write this down or just say the answer to you? You can. I mean, I'll just wait for Brie over here. Just check that. Oh, do I buzz in with the answer?

Could do. I don't really know how this game works, but hey. I'm going to buzz in. She's taking too long. I'm going to buzz in. Okay, what's your answer, Clint? 25%. That is correct. Well done. Now, Brie, is that what you had? Yep. Oh, yep.

Nice work, Clint. That's one to you. Cool. Alright, the next one. If Eden Park holds 50,000 people and 70% of those seats were full at yesterday's T20 cricket match. Why are these all percentage questions? Because it's maths. Yeah. No, but there's more to maths than percents. No, I'm asking

how many people attended the game. Should I say again? If you let me finish it, if Eden Park holds 50,000 people and 70% of those seats were full at yesterday's T20 cricket match, how many people attended the game? 50, 70, 70 of 100 is 70, so half of that. Clint.

Nice, what is it? 35,000. Oh, you've nailed it again, Clint. I know that you've rigged it and he knows all the answers. I don't know the answers. I just doubled 50 up to 100 to make a round number and then I cut it in half. The show doesn't make me feel good about myself. That was smart, though, the way Clint worked that out.

Okay, let's write our answers down for the last one so it's not speed, okay? Okay, yeah. We'll do it that way and then we'll reveal our answers. Just please don't take too long. Okay. Hypothetically, if the total number of people at Friday Jams Live this Sunday is 40,000 people and there is one security guard per 100 people, how many security guards will be there?

How many people would you say are attending? 40K, just hypothetically. And one per how many? 100. One per 100? Mm. Got it. Bree, when you're ready, you show your answer to Producer Ellie.

Who's going to get my answer in now? All right. So we've got here, Bree's put, was that 4,000? 4,000. And Clint's also put 4,000. Now the correct answer is actually 400. Did you get it wrong? I'm now questioning myself.

Actually, to be honest, I'd say you did have it right because I probably would definitely be the wrong one. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Remember a few years ago now when holograms at concerts were all the thing and like Tupac played at Coachella, right? Yes. And everyone thought that was going to take off.

That was the thing. You'd be able to see Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, anybody who had passed away through a hologram. Never really took off, did it? Like it was a thing that just happened and then – I don't think they'd perfected the technology enough where people were like amazed by it. Yeah.

I think it was more, you know, they're probably like, oh, yeah, it's kind of like a 3D-ish image. Also, you want there to be an element of spontaneity with a concert too. Like you don't want to think you're watching a prerecorded thing, right? Which is where bringing movie stars back from the dead might actually work because with a movie you know it's it's all scripted you know it's all shot well in advance um there is a movie that is coming out soon which is going to star james dean the guy who died in a car crash in 1955 wasn't it a motorbike accident no it in a car crash in 1955. Wasn't it a motorbike accident?

No, it was a car crash. Oh, but was he on a motorbike? No, he was in a Ferrari Spyder and he drove through an intersection. Oh. Anyway, he was like... Good looking man, that's for sure. Yeah, who would you compare him to? Is he like the Robert Pattinson or the... Nah, cooler and hotter than that.

Brad Pitt? Yeah, he's and hotter than that. Brad Pitt? Yeah, he's the original Brad Pitt. So there's a movie coming out which is going to be set in Vietnam called Finding Jack, and they're going to use a combination of footage from his old movies and CGI technology to recreate his image, and then actors are going to act alongside this recreated version of James Dean. That is bizarre.

Hollywood stars are not happy about it. Chris Evans has already tweeted about it and he said, this is awful. He said it's the equivalent of getting a computer to paint a new Picasso or to get a computer to write a new John Lennon song. I do get what he's saying. Or is he just scared that they're going to be replaced by robots? Like, is he just fearing for his own job? I mean there's not very many jobs for actors as it is, is there?

So if they start taking them away by using – Giving them to dead people. You know? Yeah. It definitely cuts the opportunities down. Yeah. Anyway, that movie's on its way soon. I was saying to you because you brought up this story about James Dean,

I asked you if you'd ever heard the urban legend about a motorbike. No. That was given to James Dean. Yeah. The urban legend goes, and I'm pretty sure it's just a myth, but the story goes that, and the story always changes slightly and they always change it that someone found this motorbike in a barn or someone bought it at an auction or someone, you know,

found this old Harley Davidson, right? Yeah, yeah. And anyway, they were getting the motorbike looked at and one day it's either under the fender or they take the petrol cap off and there's an engraving on this motorbike. This is what the urban legend says. And the engraving says, to James Dean from Elvis. No way.

Yes, right? And so this is the urban legend that someone actually found this old, crappy Harley Davidson that had been in a shed for however many years. Yeah. And they reckon it was the motorbike that Elvis gifted to James Dean. Imagine if you were cool enough and rich enough to give engraved motorbikes as a present. That is some next level stuff.

That's way better than a crappy card, isn't it? I want to talk about ball handling for a minute. Ball handling? Ball handling. And I'm not talking about sporting balls. I'm talking about the male testicles. Oh. And I know it's funny. Handle with care, baby.

That's my advice. Handle with care. But we are in the month of Movember, which is all about men's health. And, you know, I thought it was important to bring this to the table this afternoon because they've done a study on 2,000 men about their ball-checking habits, which, I mean, is super important. It is super important. I'm not laughing at that.

Yeah, and I had someone recently super close to me in my family who got diagnosed with testicular cancer. So this I am very all about talking about because it's super important. The study found that, and this is the part that's not surprising, 23% of males touch them at least 10 times a day. Oh, is that all? That is a lot. 10 times a day?

10 times a day. And I don't mean to be gross. I'm just thinking how much I would touch them consciously and subconsciously. My hoo-ha 10 times a day? No, but yours is on the inside. Ours is hanging out there. What? Let me bring Producer Ben into this.

I was expecting a number. No into this I was expecting a number No crap I was expecting a number Around the 200s I was going 30 40 maybe So now we know Your habits obviously

Clint's a 200 time Toucher a day No no no I know you mean that And Ben's more More around the average So you know that movie Contagion

Where they're on the plane I hate that movie And they revealed How many times The average human being Can you google it Ben? How many times the average human being, can you Google it, how many times a human being touches their face every single day in 24 hours?

I thought balls would be up there. Disgusting if you're touching yours 200 times a day. No, no, no, I'm talking over the jeans as well, as far as like a reposition. Oh, that's what I'm talking about too. Still disgusting. Yeah, okay, all right. Because, and you know, this is the biggest concern,

is that most men, even though they touch them so many times a day, they've never had their balls checked by a doctor. Oh yeah, everybody's touching, nobody's checking. Yeah, go get them checked. How many times have you touched your face a day, Ben? Found that people would touch their face an average of 3.6 times an hour. Yeah, so I thought it'd be up there with that stat.

I thought it'd be like a... Yeah. Yours is pretty high though, mate. Do you compare your mouth to your balls? Fine. Okay, I'm not going to give any more stats. Actually, now that we're talking about it, if you're saying you're touching your balls 200 times a day

and then you touch your face 3.6 times per hour, you've got a lot of balls on your face.
