Zadam's fifty thousand dollars Secret Sound Investigation Report with Detective
sound Keeper Brooke.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Good evening, everyone, and welcome to day twelve of our
investigation into Zidium's Secret Sound. Please to say twelve days
deep and still no whole puncher has gotten across the line.
I think you might be a little bit more switched
on then I originally anticipated. And that's not a clue.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
But if you are looking for.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Clues, you can grab them all on the Zidium Secret
Sound Instagram.

Speaker 3 (00:31):

Zidium Secret Sound.

Speaker 2 (00:42):

the late show. We've got Holly, who was a que
jumper over the weekend, waiting on the line. Holly, I'd

Speaker 5 (01:30):
So my mum and I have collectively gone down the
rabbit hole.

Speaker 7 (01:35):
And we sort of connected.

Speaker 5 (01:37):
The explosion, and I know you said something like I
don't want to bring up her name, but the fire
of your loins. So we think that that's the lighter,
but not the lighter that was mentioned the other day,
like the the button press lighters that have like the stalk.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
Right that you would generally use for barbecues.

Speaker 5 (02:01):
Yeah, that one, ah.

sound of clicking that lighting there. Yes, okay, Holly, is
Mom there with you?

you'd have to go fifty to fifty with mum?

good morning, good morning, Welcome to Secret Sound for thirty
thousand dollars. What do you think this sound is?

Speaker 6 (04:49):
Okay, So on a sewing machine, where the foot is
that clicks down to hold the material if the needle
goes in between the foots. Yeah, so the sound is
clicking that foot down and took place.

Speaker 8 (05:01):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, because it's got like a little bar, right,
and then the claw goes down on it and you
put it down to clip your foot.

Speaker 6 (05:08):
On, and you can't start sewing till you've done that
and you've got to click it back up again after.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yeah, you're an avid sew and now yourself.

Speaker 6 (05:16):
No, I haven't sewn since intermediate school like.

Speaker 7 (05:19):
Thirty years ago.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Same, but you've got great memory that.

Speaker 6 (05:24):

other foot.

In case you missed it yesterday, What was the guess?

Speaker 2 (06:47):
It was a I don't know, George, because I don't
live in the past. If you want to be a detective,
you have to you just gotta keep rolling with the punches.
And I did not call a rotary phone a rotesserie phone.

Speaker 7 (08:53):
Does everybody else get your name right? Is it just
me that misses it up?

Speaker 3 (08:56):
There are others on my blacklist to get my name wrong. Clint,
you were not alone?

Speaker 7 (09:01):
Does that make him a suspect?

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Actually yes, good investigation skills, Bree, Just that starsh sus.

Speaker 8 (09:10):
Thatsh has criminal written all over it.

Speaker 7 (09:14):
I think it's got police officer written all over it.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
It's got secrets in it?

Speaker 7 (09:18):
Does start with a pea? What is written all over it.
Jewels is here for a guest. Hi Jewels, Jewels. Hello,
We're at thirty thousand dollars Jewels, and it can all
be yours if you can tell us what this silly
old sound is really. Yeah, silly, everyone's having everyone's going
mad over it.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Strike two jewels, go for it. Tell me what you
think that incredibly intelligent sound may be.

Speaker 9 (09:44):
I think it's possibly pressing the full shot button on
a hair dryer, like the blue button that comes on
some of.

Speaker 7 (09:52):
Them makes it blow cold ear.

Speaker 8 (09:54):
I've got that on my hair dryer, so when you're yeah,
you press it so you can get a bit of
a relief. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (10:01):
I have one at home and I tisted it and
it sounds really similar if I get through and give
it a go.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
I'm also interested Jewels, why you landed on going to
cool rather than going to hot?

Speaker 9 (10:12):
It just the cool button ones sounded more similar than
the hot ones. What ones are more of like the
ones that you flick like a light foot.

Speaker 7 (10:20):
Yeah, it's a different type of butter.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
I know.

Speaker 7 (10:22):
The when you're trinking hot is a switch which goes
up from medium to high and then the cool it
presses down and then it pops back up, doesn't it? Jewels? Yeah, yeah, exactly,
thirty k jewels. What would you do with it?

Speaker 9 (10:40):
Just pay off some bills in there, just see if
it's more financially free.

Speaker 7 (10:44):
Absolutely.

Speaker 8 (10:46):
Yeah, that is a great radio answer, and I'm sure
you have what you'd actually do in your back pocket.

Speaker 7 (10:53):
Buy a jet.

Speaker 9 (10:54):
Ski holiday would be nice as well.

Speaker 7 (10:58):
Then oh yeah, it's here, dryer focus should buy a
dice and air wrap jewels.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Are you ready to lock it in?

Speaker 9 (11:07):
Yeah, lock it in?

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Okay, Zidium Secret Sound switching.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
The hair dryer to cool.

Speaker 7 (11:21):
Jewels.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
I'm going to have to blow you off on that one.
It's not you know, yeah she she blew me off.

Speaker 7 (11:32):
Jewel could have said you blew it jewels. Yeah, yeah,
and you and there's other connotations anyway, Jewels, it's not that.
But you can keep playing, okay, you can keep guessing.
Thank you for being part of the Secret Sound twenty
twenty fives.

Speaker 7 (11:58):

Lead Detective Sound Keeper Brook.

Speaker 8 (12:03):

Okay, that's it there and this is your big shop.
Good luck, Sarah.

Speaker 5 (12:54):

Speaker 8 (12:55):
So I think the secret sound is a Mitto class
on a watch opening and shadowing.

Speaker 7 (13:02):
Yep.

Speaker 8 (13:03):
I can hear that, yep, I can hear it.

Speaker 7 (13:08):
I can hear that absolutely so.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
The opening and closing of the watch not a not
a button on the side, no.

Speaker 7 (13:14):
No, the clasp, but the doubles over itself and the
watches with all the links, a classic metal watch strap.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
Ah, I see, I go buy one of these watches.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
Oh wow, I've got a pocket watch. Sound brokers wearing
a pocket watch on a chain around her neck like
she's Scrooge McDuck. So, no, she doesn't know the noise,
but Brion and I know the noise. Or does she
know the noise?

Speaker 3 (13:42):
The noise?

Speaker 2 (13:43):
I just I just prefer to have the time around
my neck. Okay, I've seen this wriston.

Speaker 8 (13:47):
Mention everything she says. I'm like, that's a clue. That's
a clue that.

Speaker 7 (13:51):
I've never seen her wearing that clock around her nick before.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
It's always on me, babe, I always have it.

Speaker 7 (13:57):
She isn't full uniform, Sarah. Every time she comes in here,
it's trench coat. It's uniforms too.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Yeah, yeah, except for casual fridays where I like to
have a colorful shirt underneath. Otherwise it's always trench Sarah.
Let's lock it in the class. WHOA why are you
looking under the table, Brie.

Speaker 8 (14:15):
I was just wondering because you're a detective, and earlier
in the show we talked about detectives.

Speaker 7 (14:19):
Where heels.

Speaker 8 (14:19):
Are you wearing a heel?

Speaker 7 (14:21):
No?

Speaker 3 (14:21):
I'm wearing a flat smart detection smart smart smart. Okay,
we're going to run after someone.

Speaker 7 (14:27):
Sarah. Right here, she's waiting on tender hooks tonight. She's
won thirty thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
Maybe we're just trying to keep her waiting in anticipation
to take that thirty.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
K Sarah, your gifts for Zidium's secrets sound is still
not what we're looking for.

Speaker 7 (14:44):
Yah, Sarah, genuinely, I thought that was a really good guess.
I liked it when I can see it and hear it. Yeah,
it's me really excited, and it got me excited, you know,
like your pin GISs, like my pin GISs, which still
exists right, got done the this morning, and as you
can tell me, I'm shocked.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
It was a great privilege to say no to both
you and that caller.

Speaker 7 (15:08):
I just needed it to be guessed, you know, I
just needed that.

Speaker 8 (15:11):
But I just didn't want someone to sacrifice their guests.
It might be the only hud they get.

Speaker 7 (15:15):
You didn't know.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
I knew.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
I well now we all know.

Speaker 7 (15:20):
Just because I'm brave enough to say what I think
it is, unlike you, oh Burn, I said what I
think it is. I think it's a glow stick being cracked.
