The ZM Podcast Network Hello everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast with Matty. Hi. Hi. Family meeting. Ben, you here? You with us? Yeah, you're here. Yeah. Anastasia, it's not really a family meeting, we only have Bree and Anastasia.

You call them up? But, no, I'll table the conversation now, and we can revisit it when we are back together. Maddy asked an important question yesterday about the podcast specifically. Do you remember what it was? I said, why do you play the dolphin noise at the end? I mean, I like it. I just wondered if there was a story.

I assumed there was a story behind it that I'd missed And there is Is there? Yeah there will be Oh Oh I thought You said that like And I found it

Nah when you said it yesterday I was gonna just go It's gonna be easier if we just put it out to the podcast family I cannot for the life of me remember There will be a reason Do you reckon I don't know if there is Sometimes these things just happen

Surely there was It's because it's so random yeah that surely there was a reason why there was a dolphin noise at some point i reckon possibly we could have done a break and you had those sound effects on the wall and you just were like that's a cool way to get oh you were doing awkward outros and then you started going we need something to mask these awkward outros and you might have just done the sound effects? Feasible. Look, I'm asking because I think the dolphin is up for review. I think all things should be reviewed over time.

A new animal. Maybe, or just nothing, or something else, or a new, yeah, something. Obviously, we won't make that decision until we are all back together as a team, but if there is someone out there who remembers the origin story of the dolphin Can you tell us in the podcast group how that dolphin came about I'm guessing Look, I'm new here I'm new to the family

Hi, I'm Clint Hi, Matty We've got matching nails But I feel like i know your listeners reasonably well and i feel like the podcasters are the people that yeah that know this stuff yeah like if you said to them god i feel like we talked about this one yeah specific thing someone to go yeah it was episode blah blah they are the brie and clint show historians totally yeah they're the train spotters yes yeah so so

if there is a story to it they'll know and i reckon also if there's not they'll know they'll go no you just started doing it one day yeah and we all were like what the hell to be fair the reason that's lasted so long as anastasia ended up making an image of the four of us being anastasia myself and brie and there was a fifth person available that needed to be photoshopped she put the dolphin in there and then I was like well fuck the dolphin's got to stay dolphin has to stay oh there you go I see on the Facebook

page it's literally our banner image so yeah oh Ben's doing detective work he's looking at the comments there is that what gives it away also on this picture Maddie Anastasia's done the Photoshop job who do you think she's done put the most effort into look at Ben's face yeah it's like hers is perfect Clint it goes her Clint Bree and then has just gone off

Ben will have to be that one the Dol dolphin's got a better Photoshop job than you do. Bree, Ben and I look like we are wearing other people's skin as our face. And Anastasia passes. Yeah. Hers is immaculate. She's also chosen a picture of herself where her skin looks good, her makeup looks good. Mine looks like I just got out of a sauna.

Yeah, she's so out of She's so out of touch with the rest of you The picture we're looking at by the way Is the banner image on our podcast family page Anyway that's a discussion for later down the track I've tabled it It's tabled We can just let it ruminate

Sure And move on Yeah that sounds good mate But yeah I would love to know If there is a story behind it We haven't recorded Friday Okaky yet either for Friday. Oh, you need to give me another song. Yeah, I did suggest one to Ben and you've already done it in the past.

What was it? I'll play it. Hang on a minute. I need to think about it again. Oh, I know who sings that. Here we go. But I'll have a quick think about it overnight. That'll be my overnight job.

Ben, and I'll message you in the morning. So this one is a no that you're about to play? Yeah, this is a no. Great choice. We have done it. Yeah. Do you remember who won? Probably Bray. Yeah, probably. Probably Bray. I think it was

Bray. Right. You're looking at me like you know. No, I don't know. Oh, right. Okay. Clearly, I didn't know you'd even done that. Great tune. No, no, no. Turn that off. Mm-hmm. I changed my vote.

I think I won. I would have voted for you. I don't even need to hear. It's a winning performance. I don't need to hear, Brie. I think you would have won that. Me versus Shania, I would win. Okay, cool.

Well, we've got time to think about that. Feel free to suggest a song this week. It's Maddie's Last Friday Okie, so we've got to make it go. Yes. Yeah. Where are you going? Nowhere. I'm going to just sit in the corner.

It's going to be a threesome after this. A fivesome even. A sixome if you include the dolphin. We're going to have asked a lot of you. You can tell us on our podcast page if you've got some spare time. Otherwise we'll see you guys back tomorrow. Enjoy the podcast. Hello everybody and welcome to a very zhooshed, very primped, very preened edition of the Brianne Clint Show with Maddie. I am fascinated by my hands all of a sudden. We have spent

two hours, yes, that's right, an indulgent two hours at the nail salon this afternoon. That's a long time. Isn't it? I honestly thought if you go and get your nails done, you're in, out, ten minutes. Yeah, me too. I was like, quick buffer.

Put some paint on. Chuck some paint on. You're out. And then you're done. Two hours we were there. But what a relaxing two hours it was. It was the best two hours of my life. It's a bucket list experience for Maddie and I.

We decided, look, why shouldn't we have our nails done? Why shouldn't we experience a mani-pedi? And we have, and we're going to tell you all about that on the show today. Are you a man and should you be getting mani-pedis? Should you be booking your man in for a mani-pedi this weekend? We will give you a full review and a full rundown, plus we'll show you some of the pictures. Have you chipped already?

Our volunteer firefighter has performed a down trowel, which would never happen to you, would you? Because firefighters have got those suspender things, which means their pants can't be... Hard to do. Yeah, they can't be put down. Yeah, we can't get down troweled. Yeah, well, that's a bonus.

Congratulations. You get $50 cash. Thanks to KFC, Chloe. Bree and Clint. I love people who find their side hustles or their interesting ways to make money. You know, people are constantly reinventing themselves or turning hobbies into ways to make money.

Totally. It's amazing. Yeah. But there's a guy in Japan that is making money through one of the more bizarre ways that I've ever heard. Footpicks. Footpicks? You and I got talking about footpicks.

We had our mini petties today. If there's ever a day we're going to sell footpicks, it's today. Totally. And God, would they make some money. Wouldn't they? Yeah. No, it's not foot picks. It's a guy in Japan who has found a way to make money by basically renting himself out to be a body in a social engagement.

What do you mean a body in a social engagement? Well, I'm not talking like a gigolo. It's like a fake funeral and he's the corpse. Yeah. No, I'm talking about people because in Japan, it is not normal to go and eat dinner by yourself, go to a bar by yourself. Like social norms don't allow it.

Really? Yeah. Right. Okay. And so he has found a way for people to be able to go out by themselves technically, but be with someone to make sure that people don't think that they're widows. So he's like an escort?

Yes, but without being an escort. He doesn't talk. So he doesn't So he goes and sits with them in silence. So you don't look like you're alone. Exactly. But you get to feel like you're alone. So you don't have to worry about. You don't have to make small talk. Exactly. I get it.

You don't have to tell them about your day. You don't have to worry about... I get it. You don't have to make small talk. Exactly. Oh, I get it. You don't have to tell them about your day. Yeah. You don't have to worry about explaining who you are or what you're into. So he is a body. Yes. He's just a presence. Literally. Wow. So they go and sit at a restaurant and they eat in silence. Like there's a woman who hired him recently because her

favourite restaurant is where she used to go with her ex-husband. Okay. And she really wanted to go back to the restaurant, but she didn't want to sit there alone. Yeah. Because it's not... And be judged. And be judged.

And she also didn't want to sit there alone and be lost in thought of her ex-husband. So she thought, I'll go with someone. So it seems like I'm dining with someone. Wow. And I can just enjoy this restaurant that I love so much. Probably pay that guy enough you can just call him by your ex-husband's name.

Totally. And then you can argue with him just call him by your ex-husband's name. Totally. And then you can argue with him like you did with your ex-husband. But it's one of those things where I always find if I'm travelling, there's something super liberating about going and eating alone. Once you break that barrier

and you go and do something alone, you realise, oh, actually, I love this. Have you been to a movie by yourself before? Yes. And? Loved it. Yeah. But again, it's one of those weird things

where society almost says you can't do it. But isn't a movie a weird one to need a plus one for? Oh, 100%. Because you can't talk. No, you sit there in silence anyway. There's nothing less social than watching a movie in the cinema. I totally agree. You know?

Yeah. Until the end, the beginning and the end, those are the bits where you communicate. But then there's this two-hour silence block in the middle. 100%. It's always why it's a weird first date place to go take someone to. Totally.

Yeah, totally. Unless you're going to go out for dinner afterwards or something. But then it's this weird, yeah, I get it. I wonder if we could put together a list of places this afternoon that wouldn't usually be the go-alone type events, but you do it by yourself and you bloody love it. Do you love going out to fancy restaurants by yourself?

Do you go to the movies by yourself? What else is a couple-based thing? Have you been on holiday by yourself? Do you go play mini-golf by yourself? That's weird to think about, isn't it? But you could. What would stop you? The guy at the mini golf place is like,

okay, two clubs? You're like, no, no, no, just me. What? You're playing by yourself? Yeah. We don't have a single price. Yeah. I love playing by myself.

Give us a call. 0800 dials at M. Or you can text us if you want. 219-696. We'd love to know this afternoon. What is the thing that you love doing alone? Sell it to everybody else. Tell everybody they should get out there

and do this thing by themselves, you know? Ditch the shackles of coupledom, of needing a friend. Yeah, break free of society norms. Yeah, and let us know what that event is. There's a guy in Japan who rents himself out for people who are too shy or too afraid to go and eat dinner alone. He doesn't talk to them.

He's not like an escort who keeps them company. He literally just goes and sits there so that they don't have to feel shy about eating alone. I wonder if you have to pay for his food too. Like you pay for his services. Do you have to pay for his meal too? I guess maybe that's included in the fee. Or you get up to the counter and then you go,

you spring it on them and you go, babe, you get this one. Yeah. But we were talking about the fact that actually, God, if you can do it, eating alone is so liberating. It's liberating. It makes you feel independent.

It shouldn't be as big a deal as it is. It shouldn't. But movies and life and like you said, societal norms make you believe that you've got to be in at least a couple to go and do some of the most enjoyable things in life. You know? Yeah. And restaurants too when you get there.

Like quite often if you sit by yourself, because I've eaten at restaurants by myself, and they'll go, are you waiting on anybody else? And you go, no, I'm not waiting on anyone else. And then there's a very split second of, okay. Yeah. And then they take the other setting away. I was a, when I was a,

because I was a waiter at a restaurant during uni holidays, and some people would just come with a book, and they'd just read the book during dinner time. Love that. Yeah. It's very Parisian. Sounds very, doesn't it? So we want to know, tell us,

what are the best things to do on your own? What do you do by yourself? Susie's here. Hi, Sus. Hiya. What is it? What do you like doing on your own? Well, when I first moved over here,

I went and travelled the North Island on my own because I didn't know anyone in New Zealand. And how was it? And it was fabulous. It was great. I had nobody to tell me which way to go. I could go and do whatever I wanted. No schedules, nothing.

It was fabulous. You were in charge of the playlist in the car. Absolutely. And so I guess then you would have eaten dinner alone and done all that kind of thing by yourself as well

yeah so that's the upsides what are the downsides to travelling alone no conversations yeah lots of yeah you have to

make sure you've got a signal so you can FaceTime people and go look at this beautiful scenery that I'm enjoying on my own. Did you find,

because I find whenever I'm home alone, I end up drinking quite a bit. I'm like, oh, well, I might as well finish this bottle. Did you find that your alcohol intake increased when you were travelling alone? I'd say less, because I was doing all the driving.

Oh, true. Yeah, I see what you mean. It's just hard though, Susie, because one of the things I love about travel is at the end of the day, you can kind of swap stories about everything that you did. You know, you can share those stories at the end of the day. You can't do that.

Well, you could do it by yourself, but you're basically just talking to yourself. Plus all your photos would have been selfies. I was talking to lots of family back in the UK saying, oh, look what I'm doing, but it's not quite the same as having someone there. Yeah. But it does break a lot of social norms because I was going on lots of nice walks

and stuff. Yeah, good for you. Alright, we'll put travelling on the list. Thank you, Susie. Tom's here. G'day, Tom. G'day, how you going? Good. You did this after a breakup, is that right? Yeah, mate. A couple of years ago, I went over the Gold Coast, went travelling by myself. Yeah. Over there for the weekend. And yeah, I'll, been travelling by myself over there for the weekend.

And yeah, I'll go away to like Queensland by myself for the weekend. I'll go clubbing and that sort of stuff. Go clubbing by yourself? Wait, you'll go clubbing by yourself? Yeah, I'll go out clubbing and just have a good time by myself. I end up, you know, meeting up with heaps of people, like just complete randoms.

Do you have to break the ice? Like, do you have to start a conversation with some randoms for you to be able to have a good night? No, I can literally go out by myself, but you know how, like, New Zealand's quite friendly. You just end up bumping into someone and chatting with them, introducing them to their friends, and, you know, you just whisper info and all that kind of thing.

Yeah, right. I couldn't do that one. I couldn't go. I could go to a bar and have a beer by myself, like, sit at the bar and have a beer. I couldn't go, like, nightclubbing, go around by myself. Power to you, though, bar and have a beer, I couldn't go like night clubbing, go around by myself. Power to you though, Tom.

Yeah. Oh, I know. It's just one of those things I end up getting into and then just builds your confidence up. You know, it forces you to go out and meet new people.

Yeah. No one to shout, no one to halve the Uber with though, you know. It's very expensive. Someone said temper and bowling is a fun thing to do by yourself. I get that.

Totally. Yeah. It would be like a little stress relief or if you're super competitive like I am you're guaranteed

to win. But you wouldn't get a break between frames. You know how ten pin bowling you do your two things and then

you sit down and you regroup and you go what did I do wrong what can I do better. You'd just be doing bowl after bowl after bowl.

Yeah. You get like RSI in your wrist. You get one really ripped arm. Brian Clint. First, it's time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.

Dean's here. Amanda Bynes, conservatorship, just like Britney Spears, conservatorship is coming to an end, Dean. Yeah, it's pretty exciting news today. It was announced in an LA court. She actually wasn't there, but her lawyers were there. Can you believe she's been under conservatorship for nine years? Wow.

Is it just me or is... I didn't think it was that long, to be honest with you. But here's the great news, right? Britney Spears really has brought a massive spotlight on this, and I think a lot of people are going to make some big changes with her bringing this to the forefront of international media. Cool thing about Amanda Bynes, she's been studying at FITM, the Fashion Design Institute downtown LA.

She's really, really got it going on. She's engaged with this great guy. She's been residing in a sober living facility. And so all arrows point towards a really positive outlook and a great new future for her. So it's an exciting day for her. Her mother was a conservator, placed as a temporary conservator in 2013, and then that was made permanent in 2014. So finally she can have some air.

She was such a big star. Huge. And she had some real struggles. So I wonder, like, I'm sure there is a place for something like a conservatorship for someone who needs help, but it's not a long-term thing. No, not like that forever.

It seems like a long time. I wonder if we're going to get a She's the Man 2 now. Is the time right for... Well, can I tell you, I don't... The answer's going to be no, I'll tell you why. She was very, very disturbed after that film. Do you know this? So when she watched it back,

she was very, very disturbed by seeing herself on camera portraying a different sex. Yeah. And she has opened up about how difficult it was for her to get her head around that entire project, actually. It wasn't positive. Yeah, right. Oh, okay.

Well, then, good. I wasn't pushing for She's the Man 2. It wasn't a bottom line for me. But maybe what we will see is some insane Instagram posts like we've seen of Britney lately. Yeah, she's going to really ramp up the content. There you go. There's the latest.

Britney's back. Oh, she's back on the ground. I saw that. She's back on the ground. I told you. She's got to get TikTok, man. That's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy.

Bree and Clint. ZM Bree and Clint with Maddie. That's Lato and Big Energy. Speaking of Big Dick Energy, Maddie and I have been on a man date this afternoon, haven't we? And I've never been bigger. We went and got our nails done.

The final frontier of men's self-care, right? I think it came about last week or maybe the week before. I said, since I've gotten engaged and have an engagement ring on my finger, I've never been more aware of my hands or my nails. Because you're looking at them and you're looking at your ring, you're showing people your ring. So it's there. And I'm a hacker.

Like I never take any care of cutting my nails at all. No. Just get the clippers, done. Are you a biter? Are you a nail biter? I'm not a biter, but I just get it over and done with as quickly as possible. And I've never had a manicure. No.

Let alone a pedicure, right? No. That's where you get your feet done as well for those who don't know. You said you wanted to do one and I said, well, if you're going, right? No. That's where you get your feet done as well, for those who don't know. You said you wanted to do one, and I said, well, if you're going, I'm going. Yeah. Okay, if you're going to do this, I need to experience it too.

Because I've seen, and this sounds stupid, but my experience with being exposed to many pedis is watching DJ Khaled get one. Really? And he loves it. And I'm like, man, if that guy is all about it, it must be nice. Well, do you know man, if that guy is all about it, it must be nice. Well, do you know who, remember last week we talked about the fact

that nail artist in the US who said she did Putin's nails. Vladimir Putin's nails. Vladimir Putin's nails. I'll go on the record, he's not my inspiration. No, he's not. I'm not trying to be more like Vladimir Putin. No, absolutely. But it just goes to show it's more common than we thought.

So today you and I blocked out two hours and we visited the Art of Nails in Commercial Bay. And I'm just looking at the menu of what we got. We got two Luxe Mani Pettis with a special men's service. And God, were they Luxe. Weren't they? We got the worst. We got scrubs.

We got massages. They put creams on. They scraped dead skin off our hands. That was the biggest thing for me. I was like, how much dead skin is on my nails that I've never even realised was there? Yeah, I know. They put something on our fingers.

This might sound weird to people who get it done all the time. This is all very new to us. They put some liquid on there that dissolved our cuticles. Yes. And we said, why do you need to dissolve our cuticles? And she goes, well, because it's just dead skin. It's just old dead skin. And it's the done thing.

And I've never even thought about my cuticles until now. We chose a colour for our nails. You've gone with a, I'd describe that as baby blue. Well, it's called It's a Boy. It's a Boy, that's right. That was the name of the colour that I chose. I don't know the name of my colour, but could you describe it? Well, yours evolved very quickly as

we were there. Because you said, I want black. I want Kurt Cobain black. Yeah. I want Pete Davidson black. Well, you're in your emo paramour phase at the moment. Totally. And so she said, well, how about this? How about this? And then she goes, well, do you want a little bit of a glitter in them? And I said, oh, yeah. He wants How about this? And then she goes, well, do you want a little bit of a glitter in them? And I said, oh, yeah.

He wants the glitter. Go big or go home. So you've ended up with quite a metallic-y, almost actually a green-y black. They look like the night sky in my fingers. Yeah, but they are beautiful. They also did our feet. They did the pedicure, and

that was a bizarre experience. Very. So the lady took, you didn't wear any socks, which was weird. It was a bad call on my part and I spent about three minutes apologising profusely to Emma, my nail technician. Shoes but no socks. I had socks on and because my nails were wet, she had to peel my socks off for me. And I was like, is this part of the service? And she goes, if you want it to be, it's part of the service.

And then they dunked our feet in water and then they got those boards and like sanded the side of our feet down. I reckon if I was to say what I've enjoyed more, it's the feeling of my feet. My feet feel incredible. Can I just tell you, I've got socks on now. My feet are so moist. Yes.

They're very moist. Still. But not in like a sweaty way. No, no, no. In a really beautiful, relaxing way. Is this what ladies' feet feel like?

Yeah. 24-7. Is this what it's like to be a woman? Because if it is, more men need to get into this. Sign me the hell up. Right?

Would you go again? My only thing about it is it's a big time commitment. Yeah, although we, as you said, we went for the lux option. She was like, you could come in and just like buffer, paint, done. Yeah. In and out. In and out. In a lunch break.

We did the whole, we did a hot wax dip. We did it all. We had the whole, we had the whole shebang. We got fully serviced. We did. But look, if you're a guy out there listening to this going, oh, should I? Could I?

Would I? Do it, mate. Treat yourself. Mate, bloody go get your nails done. Listen here, you bastard. Go and get your nails done. Get them to do a nice little coating of It's A Boy. A beautiful shine.

Yeah. And stop being such a pussy. 10 out of 10 experience. Thank you very much to the Art of Nails on Commercial Bay. I'll see you there next week. If you want to see our nails,

Anastasia's just put a pic of them up on the Bree and Clint Instagram. Go check out our colours. Tell us who you like more. Bree and Clint. Rate our mani-pedis on the Bree and Clint Instagram right now. Tell us who's looked better

You're ahead at the moment People like your baby blue It's bold though I'm going to read you this headline word for word Brazilian pop star hospitalized Because of trapped farts I thought with Bree not here That we would have like a fart-free show.

And here we are. And here we are. Isn't it funny the way things work out? Trapped farts. Trapped farts. Vivian de Queroz Pieria, better known by her stage name of Poca, has revealed to her 15.7 million Instagram followers that she had been too embarrassed

to let rip in front of her partner, which eventually caused severe pain in her abdomen and forced her to be admitted to hospital. I mean, there's something ironic in that, isn't there? Is there? Well, she was way too embarrassed to fart in front of her boyfriend, but she'll post about the medical treatment she had

to clear the farts to her 15 million followers. Well, I think she's had an epiphany. I think she has had a realisation, like her brush with death due to trapped farts has caused her to reassess her position on the whole thing. And she's going, hey guys, this is just a PSA because I don't want anyone to go through what I've gone through. Don't do this to yourself.

She's 27 years old. She said, I woke up at 5.30am with severe stomach pains and I ended up in hospital. But that's it guys. I'm fine now. The doctor said it was just an accumulation of trapped farts. Hey, we don't need the sound effects.

Okay. She urged her fan base not to make the same mistake as she did. She said, girls, don't be ashamed to fart in front of your guy because what's actually embarrassing is not letting your guy go to sleep because you're in discomfort and then him having to take you to hospital only to be diagnosed with trapped farts. That's what's actually embarrassing, she said. I wonder if there's, is there a treatment that they give you

that just lets it all out? Because imagine how satisfying that would feel. Like a pipe? Like a plunger. Like a plunger. You know, they get one of the plungers that you put in the toilet. I was thinking like a tube that they insert with a valve on it and then they release the valve and your tummy just goes down.

You've been with your partner for how long now? Five years. Five years. Do you guys do that in front of each other? I do, but he never does. I think I've maybe heard him fart twice in five years. Yeah, I understand that. But which makes me feel self-conscious about doing it.

Yes. Yeah. In front of him. So you, but you still do it. But I definitely still do. I just let it out slowly. Do you do what a lot of people I know who have a dog do and blame it on the dog?

I've definitely done that. Oh, Otis. Otis. Oh, God, that stinks. Me and Lucy don't do it. At've definitely done that. Oh, Otis. Otis. Oh, God. That stinks. Me and Lucy don't do it. At all. At all. Well, we don't do it at all in front of each other.

And is that a conscious thing? Yeah. We just never crossed. The thing is we never crossed that milestone. We never got to that part of the relationship where that happened. And we've been together eight years now. And now it's too late. It's too late.

It's gone too far. I think I have maybe three times in eight years. Each time has been by accident. And I'm like, oh my God, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. And it's not a big deal when it happens. But yeah, we just haven't got there.

Maybe that's what we'll do for our wedding anniversary. Just fart in front of each other. Fifth wedding anniversary. But the advice from Pocah, whose music sounds like this, by the way. It's got farts in it. The official advice is let rip. Just go is blocked. I'm already warning you. Special advices. My ex is calling me. Your wall is blocked.

Just go for it. Live your best life. I'm already warning you. Today I'm going to work. I, I, I. I like it. It's good. Bree and Clint.

In the meantime, you'd call yourself a pretty exciting person, wouldn't you? You live an exciting life. Well, yeah. I like to think so. Although, in a city, man about town. Man about town. I get my nails done. No kids.

Living in an apartment. Exactly. Getting your nails done. You're on bloody television, mate. You get your hair blow-waved every morning. Although I'm also someone that gets up at 3.30 in the morning. True. True.

So I have a real internal battle sometimes. Yeah, you need to go to bed. Your body says party, but your mind says sleep. Well, the University of Essex, which is my favourite university named after a reality TV show, has done a study to try and pinpoint what the most boring person in the world would be. Right.

So it's not like, oh, Ben from Yeah, they haven't targeted a single guy. They haven't gone, Gavin from Richmond. Gav's like, Oi! No, not that excited. He'd be like, oh. Yeah, he's like, oh.

Fair point. Bugger. Fair point. So they surveyed 500 people across the experiment and they asked them, what do you find boring? So it's all done on opinion, what people perceive to be boring. So if you said something, would someone in their mind, whether they'd say it to you or not, go, oh, it's a bit boring. Shut up, man.

You read it on someone's Tinder bio and you go, oh, couldn't date them, a bit boring, totally. Unless you're looking for boring. Some people like boring. Love boring, love safe. So here you go. Here are the characteristics. A bit boring. Totally. Unless you're looking for boring. Some people like boring. Love boring. Love safe. So here you go. Here are the characteristics that make somebody boring. We'll start with hobbies, shall we?

These are the top five most boring hobbies. Number five, mathematics. Whose hobby is mathematics? That's not a hobby. Whose hobby? You don't sit there doing calculations in the evening on the couch, do you? Or do you? Well, if you do, boring

According to the study anyway Number four most boring hobby, observing animals Like bird watching Bird watching Yeah, I get it Any other kind of animal observation? It's mostly birds, isn't it? Birds, um, yeah

I guess you could observe farm animals You could observe cows Wildlife But you're mainly hunting it if you're out there doing that, aren't it? Birds, yeah. I guess you could observe farm animals. You could observe cows. Wildlife. But you're mainly hunting it if you're out there doing that, aren't you? True. Okay, observing animals, number four. Number three, most boring hobby. Oh, this one hurts a little bit.

Watching TV. Oh, God. That's my entire personality. That's my number one hobby. Yeah. That's what I do the most. It's my only one. It's my only hobby. We had this chat the other day about what are your hobbies you

know do you actually have any hobbies i was like watching tv and having a beer um number two most boring hobby religion oh shots fired boring though if that's like more power to you but if that's your whole life it would be perceived as boring. Unless you're in the church, unless you're in that religion. Well, yeah, but I think that's probably people's perception of church. Like, some people go to church now and there's, like, rock bands and stuff. True, like, Brooke Fraser's church. Yeah.

You know? I've been to a couple of those. It's how they get you. Yeah. Like, someone sidles over to you and they're like, you having fun? I'm like, yeah, I'm having fun. They're like, yeah, me too, man. Have you heard about a guy called Jesus? No, worse than that, they're like, you having fun? I'm like, yeah, I'm having fun. They're like, yeah, me too, man. Have you heard about a guy called Jesus?

No, worse than that, they go, have you got PayPal? We'll just sign you up, 20% of your income, man. It's such a good time. The number one most boring hobby, according to this study by the University of Essex, sleeping. Whose hobby is sleeping? It's a passion of mine, but it's not a hobby. I do love a good afternoon nap. Yeah, but it's not a hobby. I do love a good afternoon nap.

Yeah, but it's not what you do for fun, is it? Well. Is it? I mean, I glean a lot of pleasure from it. Well, maybe you are boring. I'm so boring. Let's have a look at the jobs, and we'll do these quickly. The number five most boring job is banking. Someone who works in a bank. Right. Although I think that's quite exciting at the moment. You're deciding whether people

get houses or not. Totally. Number four most boring job, cleaning. Oh, that's a bit at the moment. You're deciding whether we'll get houses or not. Number four, most boring job, cleaning. Oh, that's a bit mean. Some people love it. Some people love cleaning. There was a guy on Seven Sharp last night who cleans the toilets on the West Coast. He was so interesting.

And like for fun. For fun. He loves it. Number three, if you work in tax or insurance. Yeah, fair enough. You know it. And you know it. And you know it.

Same as number two, you accountants. And number one, most boring job is... Data analyst. I don't know what to do with that. So a data analyst who sleeps and watches a lot of TV. Forget about it. Officially the most boring person in the world. Do you want to know the most exciting job just quickly?

Yeah, please. Teaching health professional journalism. Yes! Science and performing arts. I'm so exciting. You're a little from column A, a little from column B. Bree and Clint. First though, it's time for a Google off. Google, are you down down down down down

Yeah. Isolating. So it really opens things up, doesn't it? And look, credit where credit's due, and I don't like giving it out, but she is very good at the game. She is quite good. I did get her to write the questions today, so she's participated. Right. Right.

Well, she would win then if she was here. She wrote the bloody questions. Let's meet our opposition. Brianna's with us. G'day, Brianna. Hi. How are you going? Good, thanks.

Congratulations Yay thank you Very good Very good Bri and Clint This Five years Between me and my partner Ryan

Oh yeah Are you older or younger I'm older Right I'm older And every now and then Jeez what I Are you a cougar I'm a real cougar Yeah the cougs And the? I'm older. Right. I'm older. And every now and then... Jeez, what are you? Are you a cougar?

I'm a real cougar. Yeah, the cougs in the relationship. I'm the daddy. Did you go to his 21st? No, I haven't quite known him that long. Right, okay. But has he turned 30 yet? Yeah, he just turned 30 last year.

Oh my God. I know. Right, okay. So I was in my mid-30s and he was still in his late 20s. And I bet he reminded you of that all the time. Yeah, you're like, I need to go to bed. I've been up since 3.30 in the morning. He's like, okay, granddad.

Yeah, exactly. And it doesn't happen very often because like five years isn't huge. No. And also he's old for his age and I'm an idiot. So it matches up. Yeah, we meet somewhere in the middle. We meet in the middle. Yeah.

Your average age is 32 and a half. Exactly. Which is not far off your real age. Totally. Yeah. Every now and then, though, there's a point in time where we realise that we have this five-year age gap and it's usually pop culture references.

Okay. So a movie, I'll be like, oh, my God, bring it on and he'll be like, bring it on. And he'll be like, bring it on. He doesn't know bring it on? I mean, he kind of, often he kind of knows them,

but he missed the wave. Like he wasn't watching bring it on at sleepovers when we were watching it at school. I get it. I get it. Sometimes he's playing with his Beyblades

and you're like, what are those? Yeah, totally. And I'm like, cheddar rings. And he's like, what are those grandpa?

Yeah. But there's like, what? What are those, Grandpa? Yeah. But there's this couple, a Kiwi couple on TikTok called Sav and Mark who document their relationship. They have quite a lot of followers and a lot of people are liking their stuff. There's a 22-year age gap between the two of them. 22? Wow. Okay. She's 22. He's 44. There's a 22 year age gap between the two of them. She's 22, he's 44. He's zero.

No. Wait, wait, wait. She's 22, he's 44. He's 44. Yeah. Park the age gap for a second. Why are they documenting their relationship on TikTok? I think because she's Gen Z and he just goes along for a second. Why are they documenting their relationship on TikTok? I think because she's Gen Z. Yeah. And he just goes along for the ride.

He's Gen X. There's an entire generation between them. There is. Because he's not a millennial. No. He's above millennial age. Wow. Yeah, I didn't even think of that.

It goes, yeah, wow. Okay. Yeah. How's it going for them? You're on their TikTok. How's the relationship going? Mark very much seems like A guy who has no idea what he's doing

No Yeah The good thing for her Is she probably found a partner Who's already in the housing market True You know She's gone secure my future

Just pay his mortgage I don't want to I don't want to cast too many aspersions on this and and i'd say that as a joke but there would be so many things within the relationship that didn't compute because you're from different generations and you've had different life experiences totally like he's been through his 20s he's been through his 30s he's part way through his 40s yeah god so it's like it's almost like watching the TikToks. It is almost like watching your dads join in and try and be cool.

Like, you know, when you're like, oh my God, dad, stop. Stop it. He's not making any of the TikToks, eh? Well, he's there, though. No, but he's not running the camera. No. He's not adding the filter. He's trying to keep up with the lip syncs.

He's trying to match the speed of the voices. I always maintain that the age gap would lessen, like the significance of the age gap would lessen over time. The older you get. But let me play them forwards. So when she's 44, he'll be 66. That's different as well. Yeah, true.

I reckon they'll come closest. Because again, when she's 66 he'll be 88 yeah but they might come closest when she's 33 and he's 55 yeah maybe

yeah I guess you know I'm 35 and I could easily hang out with someone in their mid-50s and have plenty to talk about. These things always fascinate me and the way it works

and the way the dynamic works. And this might sound silly, but it fascinates me more when it's the other way around. So he's an older man dating a younger girl. The stories where it's an older lady dating a younger man, you know, who break the norm in that way. Totally. How does that one work?

Yeah, because actually a younger girl, older guy is Taylor's oldest time. Totally. Do we know if this is his first serious relationship or his 15th? Let's take some calls on it. And it's very, it's very, like you're putting yourself out there to join us on this chat this afternoon. But if you want to, we'd like to talk to you about your age gap love. What's the gap between you and your partner? Is it significant?

Is it constantly commented on? And what's the biggest challenge that you guys face as a relationship? There's absolutely, by the way, there is absolutely no judgment. Like, Sav and Mark seem super happy and in love. Yeah. And I'm stoked for them. It just strikes me that that's quite a big age gap. It's a thing.

Whether you like it or not, it's a thing. And so what are the differences in their relationship? And what's it like? Yeah. What's it like for you guys? You can call us on 0800-DALES-ATM. You can text us on 9696. You can stay anonymous on this one.

But we want to know, what's the age gap in your relationship? Bree and Clint. We're's the age gap in your relationship? Bree and Clint. We're talking about age gap love because there are some Kiwis who are documenting their relationship on TikTok, and it's blowing up. Maddie just told me these guys have got almost 100,000 TikTok followers. So many followers. And do you think people are watching because of the age gap?

Definitely. Or do they do really good dances? You know? Well, he tries, bless him. Right. He's got old knees. But yes, and they lean into it. They're like, yeah, we get it.

There's a 22-year age gap. It's interesting to people. So we might as well, like, embrace it. He's 44, she's 22. Yeah, and someone sticks in to say that they know these two and that they're super in love and really happy. Well, good for them. Great.

It's a fascinating phenomenon, though, because of the differences in experiences and life experience that you'd have. But maybe that's why it works. That's why we want to talk to you about your age gap love this afternoon. Sam's called up. Hi, Sam. Hi, Dan. Is there an age gap in your relationship?

Just a small one, you know, like only eight years. Eight years. Okay, so he's eight years old or they are eight years old or are you younger than you? He's eight years older than me. So we met when I was like just turned 19 and he was probably like 25, 26 off the top of my head. Right.

And all my friends were horrified. They were like, what are you doing? He's so old. That is so old when you're 19. Totally. Like that's ancient. He had like a career and I was in uni and it was like, they were just really freaked out.

And what freaked them out the most was when we bought a house when I was 21. Yeah, true. Wow. Because it would fast forward all of your milestones, right? Well, yeah. He's been there like my, my entire 20s, and, like, married and having a baby, and, like, I wouldn't have changed anything.

Like, eight years is nothing. Well, to be fair, you're right. Eight years is nothing. It's just at the time it would have felt massive. So, yeah. Oh, yeah. It was a bit freaky. Yeah, bank that.

Thank you, Sam. Thank you for talking to us. Neil's called up. G'day, Neil. G'day, how are you? Good. How are you, man? Not bad. Not bad at us. Neil's called up. G'day, Neil. G'day, how are you? Good. How are you, man? Not bad.

Not bad at all. What's the age gap, Neil? 20 years. Wow. Which way? You're dating someone 20 years older or younger than you? Younger. Okay.

He's 35. He's 35. I'm 55. So you're boyfriend or husband? Yes, boyfriend. You're boyfriend is... No husband? Yes, boyfriend. Your boyfriend is... No, we're past boyfriend. We've been living together five, six years

I thought, this is me. This is my life. Yeah, there you go. You can relate. I'll get into this. What's the biggest thing, Neil? Like,

what is the biggest thing that you notice? It's when you go, when we go shopping or go somewhere to go buy something. Actually, we bought some seat covers

for a car the other day and both, my partner and I went in there and then we had to drop them back. So my partner and I went in there and then we had to drop them back. So my partner dropped them back and he said, oh, you were here with your father.

Yeah. Yeah. And he just goes, my partner, and we were somewhere, we were in a clothing shop the other day and the lady said, so you are, and I'm thinking like, that's all, but never mind. Yeah, I know what you mean. I know what you mean. Yeah, you would get it all the time. Not all the time because we just don't care. off, anyone. Yeah, I know what you mean. I know what you mean. Yeah, you would get it all the time. Not all the time, because we just don't care.

Yeah, exactly. And obviously you're in love, so what does it matter? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It doesn't matter. Don't care. Okay. Well, very great insight. Thank you, Neil.

We appreciate you sharing your love story with us. Have a great afternoon. Same to you. Catch you later. See you, mate. Very good. Let's talk to Liv. Hi, Liv.

Hi, how's it going? Your sister has an age gap love. Is that right? She did. So, yeah, it was one of her first relationships, serious ones. And it was a good 34 years. Whoa. 34 years.

Yeah, it was a bit shocking. So she was 20 and he was 54. Wow. What's the deal? Were you a bit weirded out when that started? I had the first and only time in my life I've ever punched a wall Because I had such a weird reaction to it

I can't explain why I did But it was very bizarre And so that's your gut reaction Because obviously it can work We're hearing stories of age gap relationships that can work But was your gut reaction right? Was that one that should not have worked? No, that actually did work

So they were together for about four and a half years actually. He'd come over all the time, spend time with the family, you know, like got on really well with my parents. I barely did. I always think about this too. Did your parents get on with him? Or were they like, what are you doing?

So it was a bit of both. Obviously they were super wary about it, like we all were, but it's kind of a decision for them. It was like, oh, do we stop this and risk losing our daughter or do we just see what happens? And so, yeah, no, they were really good about it. Okay, and it wasn't the age, was it the age gap in the end that broke them up?

No, in respect to her being younger and her wanting to kind of live her life, like her not feeling fully fulfilled and being like, oh, I've literally been with this one guy seriously my whole life. She had her wild oats to sign. Yes, I would say it was. And he's like, I'm done. So to be fair, it kind of was the age gap.

Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Far out. Yeah. It was an interesting time. Look at that. Okay, well, thanks, Liv.

We appreciate the call. Someone's texting and said, I'm 20. She's 42. We're getting married in two weeks. That's the one we were looking for, where it's the young guy and the older woman. Okay, well congratulations to you. Congratulations, I hope the wedding goes well.

which said, does getting Botox in your 20s and 30s prevent you from getting wrinkles in later life? Right. Like if you freeze the muscles now, does it stop the folding from happening that later on leads to crow's feet and whatever else that you get? Right.

In which case you're then having to play catch up and then getting Botox when you're in your 50s and 60s. Can you get ahead of it? And then you said that your mum works in a parent's medicine. Yeah. So I went, well, stuff it. I'm not going to read this article then. Let's go straight to the source. So welcome to the show this afternoon. It's Maddie appearance medicine. Yeah. So I went, well, stuff it. I'm not going to read this article then. Let's go straight to the source.

So welcome to the show this afternoon. It's Maddie's mum. Hi. Hi, guys. Hi, Clint. Hi, Matt. This is getting a bit of a regular appearance for me. I know.

We need a talent fee. Yeah, we need to start paying you, Mum. What is your hourly rate as an appearance medicine practitioner? Never enough. Never enough. So talk to us about Botox. Perks are quite good. Yeah, right.

Well, I've heard there's some perks. Maddy said that you've jabbed him with a couple of Botox needles before. Once or twice. Yeah, yeah. He might be in need of it at the moment. Mum called me yesterday. Mum and I were having a very lovely chat yesterday, and she said, oh, someone from the clinic said I need to get on to you

because your frown line's showing. I saw you on TV. Really? Yeah. Yep. It's that. I saw you on TV. Really? Yeah. Yeah. It's that HD camera, right? Exactly. Yeah.

Totally. So are you pro-Botox? Absolutely. Why? Tell us why Botox is good. Because every woman wants to look her best. And in a lot of cases, it's not about freezing the face, but it's about making you look less tired.

I have a lot of women who come in and say, everybody tells me I look really grumpy all the time, but it's just an expression. You can't change unless you block it from the brain that makes you do it. So looking at, say, the likes of Matty, he can't change the way he expresses, and it creates lines in your face from movement over and over and over again in the same spot.

So if you stop that, then the skin relaxes, and then you don't get the lines. Wow. Look at it. It's so deep. Oh, yeah, you've got that brow line in there. So deep. It's like a frown thing between your eyes.

So the question is, if Matty had started getting this in his 20s, would that mean that he wouldn't have that line there at this time of life? Would it not have set into his face? Yeah, basically. Because if you think of it as like creasing a piece of paper over and over and over again in the same spot, if you relax that and you can't make that movement, then the skin's elasticity stops the lines from forming. And eventually, does your brain stop telling your forehead

that that's what it should do? To some extent it does. It gets lazy and forgets to do it. Like I've been having it for 15 years, and I literally don't make that frowning when I talk or when I'm reading or talking to somebody or sitting in front of the computer. But they just come with

a thing that the younger you start, you've got to be a little people that you don't overdose in large quantities because there is a thing where your body can build up antibodies and the Botox no longer works. So when you're in your 50s and you've been having it for 30 years...

You can become Botox resistant. You can become a little bit resistant. Wow. Yeah. So I, and the younger people, my philosophy is that I don't believe they need a lot and they often don't need it as often as somebody who's starting it in their maybe 40s or 50s, where you've had years and years of the brain making that movement.

Yeah, fascinating. Does that make sense? Yeah, totally. You've been very helpful, Maddy's mum. We appreciate it. Finally, is Botox safe? Absolutely. It was manufactured originally for children with cerebral palsy.

And if you think on average, I put in 20 to 30 units in a woman of sort of my age. In cerebral palsy, children back when they first started it 30 years ago, they were putting two to 300 units in. So it's very, very safe. And the cosmetic came from a more medical use of it. Yeah, wow. Totally safe. And God, I've never looked better, Mum. Exactly. Come see me, sweet.

Time for a top-up, though. We'll get you a flight. There you go. That's Maddie's mum. She's a parents' medicine nurse. We appreciate your time. Thank you. Bye, Mum.

Cheers, guys. See you, Mum. There's a new TikTok trend. Oh, I've got to get on this. Yeah. Whatever it is, I want it. I want in. Whatever the trend is.

And now I'm on it literally every second of every day. I love being on it and using it. I've got no idea how to make a good TikTok video. No, neither do I. No. Well, maybe we just need to follow this trend. Right. What people are doing is they are posting,

there's an audio clip that people are posting that links them to their celebrity doppelganger. Okay. And so they are posting a video of themselves and then it morphs into the celebrity i've seen this yeah some because you choose who it is right yes you say you say morph me into this person yeah some people are very what's the word i'm looking for generous with who they say their doppelganger is they're like guys people keep telling me I look like Ariana Grande.

I was trying to think Is it an actor? Mm-hmm Like a current actor? Mm-hmm I've been told this multiple times Okay I once attended the big gay out festival

And I was told this five times in one day From different groups of people Don't know why it's the gay community Who see this so strongly once attended the big gay out festival and i was told this five times in one day from different groups of people don't know why it's the gay community who see this so strongly but once they pointed out i couldn't unsee it my celebrity doppelganger ricky gervais we went to his apartment and the doorman there went oh you're here to see mr jones and i went oh yeah of course i'm here to see Mr. Jones. And I went, oh, yeah. Of course I'm here to see Mr. Jones. From the office. Oh, my God.

From Afterlife. Oh, my God. From, I don't know, Ricky Gervais. Oh, my God. Nobody wants to get told that they look like Ricky Gervais. I say that with all due respect to Ricky Gervais. But once it was said to me, I couldn't unsee it. And I accept it. I take it.
