Speaker 2 (00:25):
Could everybody, It's Bri and Clint. I have just stepped
out of a very chilly cinema where I've watched the
entire third Avatar movie.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
How was it very good? Was it just you in there?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
A couple of other people turned up, but there was me.
Did you get it from friend Kate Roger? I love
Kate Roger from Film three y r P and two
other people not to.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
Kate Roger too to film Film three. I just wanted
to make sure in case since.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
She was in the Avatar film with me. But it
was a long film. You could have passed away in there. Yeah, yeah,
it's very good. You I forgot maybe you didn't. It's
three D, so you're gonna put the three D glasses on.
And I know you're passionately anti three D, but Avatar
is the Extit's an.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Anti three D for everything other than Avatar.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yeah, everything else.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
But in the Imax.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
That's what I mean, that's going to be relevant.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
But there's only one IMAX cinema. If you're going to
see Avatar in Ashburton at the Regency or whatever the
cinema is there, is it going to be three D?

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Is it b yo?

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Three D glasses? Yeah? I don't know. These are things
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Exciting times though.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
I'm going to interview James Cameron and he met him before. No,
my friend has though accidentally ended up at his house
once picked up. This is a crazy story. My friend
picked up James Cameron's step son hitch hiking one time,
became friends with him, lived with him for four months,
and at the end of the four month he goes, oh, well,

(02:01):
if you guys coming over to the States anytime soon,
you should come to my stepdad's house. And after four
months of living together, they went who's your stepdad? And
he goes, oh, James Cameron likes as in the James
James Cameron.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Is in the only James Cameron w.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
T So they went to his house. Buzzy, yeah, buzzy, anyway,
that's not about me. How's your day been?

Speaker 5 (02:24):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:24):
You know, how's the Christmas song coming along?

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Look?

Speaker 4 (02:29):
I have been getting to work on the Christmas song.
We're getting down to the wire.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Do I get a verse?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
I spent I want to say, three hours this morning
writing lyrics.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Yeah, so I feel like that is my only domain.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Okay, it's there's something.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Do I get a verse?

Speaker 3 (02:51):
I feel like we're going to get multiple voices throughout
the whole song.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Do I get a voice? Averse?

Speaker 3 (02:57):
You get to sing on it?

Speaker 6 (02:57):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Nice?

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yes? Producer Ella Breeze under selling this.

Speaker 7 (03:02):
The song is incredible.

Speaker 8 (03:04):
She could get another job in writing lyrics.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
When do you think we get to hear it? When
do you think it'll be out?

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Oh, it's got a lot of work.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Well, Christmas is coming.

Everyone's going to Everyone knows who Beyonce is. Yeah, do

As a fair and square win, Tyler will get that
fifty bucks out to you. Make nice workdms Bree and
Clintic Podcast if you missed it.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
The Ladies one today, which means Trady verse lady lives on.
The best the Ladies can hope for is to draw
a level on the final day.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Which we will then go to a tie break game.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, we'll go to a whole nother game. Yeah, but I.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
Mean we're getting too far ahead of ourselves.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
Way ahead of ourselves. Ladies need to win Tomorrow, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
Not undoable but a long way off.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
Hey, talking to my brother the other day about because
Christmas is fast approaching, and he's like, what.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Are you doing? What are you going to be home?
What's happening? And I was kind of like, oh, I'm
going to be there on these days.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Brother, who goes have you got to prison for mum?
And can I contribute to it?

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Nah? My brother's really good.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
He normally, oh, he will do that from time to time,
but if he's got an idea, he'll like message me
and be like, hey, we're going to get this. Yeah,
he's pretty good, which is interesting because he was the
one that told me that apparently our family's doing secret
sent a white elephant this year.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
No one told me.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Remind me how white Elephant works.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
So everyone brings a present.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
Everyone in the that's participating in the secret Center brings
a gift.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
They all go into the middle. One at a time, someone.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Opens a gift, so the gifts have to be generic.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Well, here's the thing, right, one time people like one
person will open a gift and the next person opens
a gift, they decide whether they want to steal their
gift or open a new one, et cetera. And I said, oh, okay,
when was this decided because no one has told me.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
And he's like, oh, that's just what I heard.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
And I was like, what's the limit, what's the it's
the budget and he said one hundred and fifty bucks.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Wow, oh, but you only have to buy one gift.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
So it's one gift, the whole Cross family, the whole family.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
They'd be a fun white elephant of all the gifts
are one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
Well, here's the thing. So now I have this dilemma
where I'm kind of like, what do I do here?
One hundred and fifty bucks is a good gift?

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Good gift?

Speaker 3 (09:36):
The good gift?

Speaker 4 (09:37):
Do I strategically buy something that I would like?

Speaker 5 (09:42):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (09:43):
And then hope I end up with the thing that
I buy. Or do I buy something random, or do
I specifically single someone out who I would like to
buy gift for and and hope that they get.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh three very different possibilities. What are you leaning towards.

Speaker 4 (10:04):
I'm not really leaning towards anything because within the group,
I think there's four women, two men.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
So if you're.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Buying a generic gift, I don't really have any ideas for.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
That fitbit.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
FOTBT.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
You know, but you get for one hundred and fifty.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Dollars because you know what my worst nightmare is. I
don't want to buy bloody fitbit. You know what my
worst nightmare is?

Speaker 2 (10:28):
You get the footbit that.

Speaker 4 (10:31):
But my worst worst nightmare is I'm the one that
buys the gift that no one wants.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
You don't want to be that.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Specially if you spend one hundred and fifty bucks. Yeah,
I'd be devastated. I pride myself and buying good gifts.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Your chances of getting your gift that you buy are low,
I think higher than others because you know where it is,
so that helps.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
What if it's a pair of shoes in my size?

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (10:59):
Yeah, I mean don't you have the same size feet
as your dad?

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Though I do not, thank you very much?

Speaker 2 (11:08):
Do you guys share a blundest?

Speaker 3 (11:09):
He's not even involved in this secret center? He no?

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Why does him dare get to do White Elephant?

Speaker 3 (11:16):
Because dad barely he doesn't know how to buy gifts.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
So someone will be buying a gift for him to
contribute bactly, so he's involved.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
Well, I don't know. I need to ask my mom.
If he's involved, he.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
Will be what's he going to do? He's involved? No?

Speaker 4 (11:28):
We all the thing is is we buy gifts for
mom and dad ah, and then it's counted gifts get.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Bought for them. This is more just the sibling and partners.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
Oh, then just collude, get a group check going and go, hey, guys,
screw this White Elephant. I want this. You want this?

Speaker 4 (11:46):
Nah, because there's people in the group that want to
want to do the Secret Santa.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
This is the thing. I want to put it out
to the people.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
The brief is, so it's a White Elephants secret center.
The budgets one hundred and fifty bucks. Yeap, there's four
two men in the Secret Santa. What are some ideas?
What fits that Bill.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
I've got a really good idea that's just come to me. Okay,
I'm going to hold it. Okay, we'll get people's ideas
in oh, eight hundred dollars at M. Or you can
text a nine six nine six. Maybe you're a Secret
Center specialist for.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
The person if you have an idea and you call
through or you text through and I end up using
it for the best gift idea this afternoon fifty ks
chicken dollars. I was informed yesterday by my brother that
apparently we're doing Secret sand a white Elephant this year.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Budgets big. It's a good gin one hundred and fifty
bucks each. You throw all the presents in the middle.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
One person opens a present and the next person decides
with that whether they want to steal that present or
open a new one, so on and so forth.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Brie needs to know whether she plays ball and just
buys us in your at prisent buys a prison for
someone and hopes they get it, or spend one hundred
and fifty dollars on herself and then play survivor style
strategy to make sure she gets the gift that she bought.
Discuss I had a thought for you. Yeah, oh yeah,
what was your your suggestion? Because this is going to

(13:08):
be taking place at your parents' house in Australia, which
means you're going through Judy Free. Yep, you can get
a lot of alcohol for one hundred and fifty dollars
in Judy Free. I reckon you could get.

Speaker 6 (13:22):
Four bottles of spirits big ones, big Ones, or three
bottles and a carden of cigarettes, or two bottles, a
carden of cigarettes and a Yuei boom god.

Speaker 10 (13:36):
Not a bad gift, not big gift party for one.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
I feel like I know who in my family would
be drawn to that anyway.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
That's my contribution to do with it what you will
not at? Ruby has called through? Hi Ruby, Hi, Ruby, Hi,
how do we manage this? What does breedo for her
White Elephant secret Center?

Speaker 9 (13:54):
I think that she should get like some lottery thing
like tickets or gift cars?

Speaker 2 (14:01):
Hm, A lot of is an interesting one hundred and
fifty dollars A lot of lotto ticket.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah, that is a lot of like scratchees.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
You might not know this about Brie, but gift cards
are one of her pit hates. Ruby. Oh yeah, so
she wouldn't be trying to get that one, would you?

Speaker 3 (14:15):
Well, that's wrong.

Speaker 4 (14:16):
I wouldn't be drawn to the gift cards, but some
people would be.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Guess it depends where it's a gift card for.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
The problem is, Ruby, is I'm from a very small
country town and most of the people participating in the
White Elephant like, there's not many shops to get gift
cards for.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Is there a Bunnings?

Speaker 3 (14:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (14:34):
No, no Bunnings, No Bunnings. Damn. What do you guys
get your hardware at the hardware shop? The hardware shop?
My god, old tiny Thanks Ruby. Bonnie's calling through with
an idea. Hi Bonnie, Mary Christmas, Hi.

Speaker 9 (14:47):
Bonnie, Hi Mary Christmas.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
What do you reckon? What should I do for the
White Elephant?

Speaker 9 (14:52):
I can either a bungee jump voucher or whitewater rat thing.
You could even maybe get one for two or a sty.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
I like it. Again, I think we're going to face
the same problem. What are the bungee jumping in white
water rafting places like in Stanford Country, Queensland?

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Very minimal?

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Any white water, no, any bridges.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
No, it's not much there, Bonnie.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
But you know what Bonnie's saying, and I like her
suggestion and experience rather than.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
A lot of farming. You could, but you could skydive
from a crop dusting plane. Oh you know what, you know,
you know what?

Speaker 4 (15:27):
I could get Bonnie a voucher to go shearsham shear
some sheep to shear some sheep.

Speaker 9 (15:36):
Something to do with the zoos or something.

Speaker 3 (15:38):
Oh noh, sh sheep, some sheep.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Shitty idea, that's hard to say. More ideas they're coming through.
Someone said, my go to is always a message aboutcher
full body at least an hour long. Again, great idea.
I don't imagine. There's great message parlors and rural Queensland.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
Not many.

Speaker 4 (15:58):
No, what about this breeze white elephant present? I think,
buy two tickets for a concert slash show you that
you want to go to. Whoever gets the other ticket
takes you, has to bring you write your name on
the other ticket.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
I love that idea. It's smart.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Fill up a bucket of random stuff, biscuits, sauce, a lighter, chocolate,
fizzy drink, something from the opshop, lollies, random but fine.
Imagine winning breeze, big bucket of crap. Yeah, oh my god, Claudia,
can we launch the new year with that? Primo breeze, big.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
Bucket of crap. Isn't that what we do every year?

Speaker 8 (16:36):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Isn't that just clenched prize box? Bring it back?

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Someone said, a husky gear with alcohol and or a
retro chili bin filled with goodies. That's not a bad idea.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
A chili bean, a chili bin with something in it
is very good. Yeah, but one hundred and fifty bucks
would just get you the husky.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Yeah, the huskies are expensive. They're good, though.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Someone said, just cheese, butter and chocolate.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
See, I'd be too drawn to that. Someone said, what
about an air fryer.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Oh what a great idea, because a couple of people
text in and just slushy. But that's so expensive. Yeah,
two one hundred dollars air fryer. Though, what about this one?
Here's one that I've used before.

Speaker 3 (17:16):
You buy a second pair a pair of secondhand.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
Rugby boots off trade me and forge Stacy Jones's signature
on the priceless.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
I quite like that.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:29):
Someone else said, wrap up one hundred and fifty dollars cash.
They will fight over that one.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Yeah, the gift of nothing, Wrap an empty box and
keep the one hundred and fifty for yourself.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
What about a treasure map and you hide the gift
somewhere around the farm, and what's under the tree is
a treasure map. When people try and win the treasure map.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
That sounds like a lot of work. Someone else just said,
buy whatever you like, Brion, hope you get it.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
I think that's what you're going to do. I think
it might be, as we said, two bottles of gin,
a card of cigarettes in a yuwie boom.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
Done.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Done.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
That's a bloody good Christmas.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
Dead means Branklin.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
Live from la with Dean McCay den. A bit of
good news for Rebel Wilson and your wife.

Speaker 5 (18:17):
Yes, and good news re Wolfson and her wife They
are expecting baby number two. What's laughing?

Speaker 2 (18:23):
It sounds like you're in a submarine.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
That's like you're ripping a bowl.

Speaker 5 (18:26):
Here's what happened. I'm actually in Sydney and all of
a sudden, just as you called, they started jack hammering cement.

Speaker 9 (18:31):
You.

Speaker 5 (18:37):
I'm in Sydney, which is the home of Rebel Wilson,
and the good news is she and her wife are
actually expecting baby number two.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
Oh my god, that just no, stop again, Dean, Dean,
stop that was the most incredible segue I've ever heard
to go from jack to go from jack hammering and
Sydney like seamlessly back into this Rebel Wilson story. That's
where you're the pro and I'm sorry to interrupt you again,
Please carry on.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
Oh, speaking of interruptions, their life was interrupted with baby.
I think this is going to be an incredible, incredible
year for her. There were highlights of the day and
there were low lights of the day. And the lowlight
is that Rebel is always in lawsuits. Have you guys
notice that, Like, is it just me? Or has everyone
noticed that she's always in a lawsuit?

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Yeah, she really is, Dean. It's always something like it.
At first it was her against all of those gossip magazines,
and then the more recent ones, the movie that she directed,
the deb the Aussie movie, And there's been a lot
of drama that went on in and around the set,
and she's been in and out of lawsuits with it, right, Dean, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (19:44):
That's right. So basically, she she alleged the baby, all
of these A long story to cut it short, she
alleged all these things from the three producers. They sued
her for defamation. She went back and sued them again
for harassment and all kinds of other things. And then
now the lead actress in that movie is also doing
Rebel the Detonation. There's like four or five losses on that.
Back in the day she obviously stud I think it

(20:05):
was a major publication here in Australia and one but
then a revoke to money and brought it down to
six and one thousand sony losses. And the other day
she was on sixty minutes getting grilled about something. Let's
just hope she focuses on baby number two.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Yeah, good to get some good news. She's having the
baby with her wife. Who's carrying the baby? Do we
know so Rebel?

Speaker 3 (20:25):
I know it was pregnant first and now the wife
is pregnant.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Oh you're nice. Yeah, wow, very good. That's the Tea
with Dean McCarthy live from the Streets of Sydney, getting
Jack emmered as we speak. We're bag after this on
MS Brilliantly podcast.

Speaker 3 (20:42):
Look. I love Christmas. I'm a big Christmas person. I
love to get involved. I love to cook for everyone.
It's my favorite part about Christmas. I love giving gifts.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
I love it all. It's great great.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Time of year.

Speaker 4 (20:54):
I think, though, there's a few Christmas dishes on the
list that need to be stricken from the record.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
Okay, you want them removed from the Christmas menu.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
I think so.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
I think they're only still on there because it's Christmas tradition.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
But I just don't think they're very good.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Okay, I'm big on tradition, So I'm going to be
very critical of what you suggest. And you're a foodie.
You're a good cook, you know your food. You do
have some out there opinions, though when it comes to food.
Your stance on egg plant is hinged. It's unhinged.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
If you put egg plant in a bloody lasagna and
call it a lasagna, you're crazy.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
But you've had bad egg See, this is what I'm saying.
I'm not entering this conversation with you again. You just
have some you have some unhinged opinion.

Speaker 3 (21:44):
Get your Movescca and put it in the bed.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
No, but it's a move SOAKA hate it.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
Awful dish.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Anyway, I'm listening. What is the Christmas dish that you
think needs to be removed from the menu this Christmas?

Speaker 3 (21:55):
Do you want?

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Because I've got two? Do you want my most controversial one.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
First, ease us into it.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
Okay, I'll lease you into it. Okay.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
The first Christmas dish that needs to be taken off
the venue mince pies.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
No, see get in Chris, okay, first of all, get
in the bed. No, okay, First of all, low hanging
fruit like that one. Excuse the fruit pun. But that's
an easy there's an easy one to target because no
one is more vocal. No one's more vocal at Christmas
than the person who needs everyone to know that they
don't like Christmas mince pies. I love Christmas mince pies.

(22:33):
Shut up, just leave them for me.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
Yuck. They're no good.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
A little bit of a little bit of pastry on top,
a little bit of dusting of icing sugar.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
But here's my argument, Star, there is a million other
things that are better than that that I would rather eat.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Get them in the bin straight away. Thoughts on that
Christmas mince pies or No.

Speaker 7 (22:53):
I don't love them, but there's a place for them.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
There is a place for them.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Bloody Switzerland, Ella, I think.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
You are they vegan. Shouldn't you be taking whatever you
can get?

Speaker 3 (23:03):
No, it doesn't get she hates it good next one.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Well, that was the non controversial one, and I already.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
People are going to be not happy with me. This
needs to be taken off the Christmas venue, the Christmas Ham.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Get out, get out, go away go.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
It's just.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
It's not it's just it's the cornerstone of Christmas. It's
the cornerstone of the week between Christmas and New Year.

Speaker 4 (23:33):
The only good thing about the Christmas ham, the only
good thing about Christmas Ham.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
I will go on the record.

Speaker 4 (23:38):
And say I do enjoy that it lasts a long
time in the hambag after, but that is the only
good thing about it.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
In terms of the actual taste.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Ham sandwiches, ham buns, it's not very different. It's this
ham on a slice of bread, am on the barbecue,
so you cook it on the barbecue, make go but
crispy with and then you put it in bread strips
of ham.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Ew.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
It's it's just no vegan opinions on the hem.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
I could take a leave it, you know.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
I wanted to contribute to this conversation, but I actually
don't think there's any food that I think is overrated
at Christmas. I don't think there's a single food. Claudia,
have you got one.

Speaker 11 (24:27):
Yeah, I've got a hot take, and I feel like
you're going to get justified.

Speaker 7 (24:31):
I think.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
The trifle needs to go away.

Speaker 7 (24:37):
And you know what I think it is? You know
what it is. It's the mints.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Is it that it brings joy?

Speaker 7 (24:44):
No, it's just too gross and squishy.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
Wait did you say the mints?

Speaker 11 (24:47):
Are the mints? The layer of mints in the middle. Friend,
it's gross, it's too squishy.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
I don't get a trifle as a legs. I love trifle.
I trifle sponge in there. Got a bit of tin fruit,
got a bit.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Of get rid of the tin fruit. Custard there needs
to go.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
Okay, fresh fruit, I'll compromise fresh fruit.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, that's see. I'm down for a good trifle. I
think is mean. Get rid of the head.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Someone takes it into My in laws can't cook for
ship at Christmas, so the only thing that's good is
the ham. Oh yeah, do they do the ham? Do
you volunteer to do the hair?

Speaker 3 (25:27):
I got one.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Okay, this is the foods, the Christmas foods that are overrated,
and we would like remove from the menu.

Speaker 8 (25:36):
Ella the pavlover can get in the bed.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
No vegan opinions no vegan opinions. It's yuck.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
The textures yuck.

Speaker 8 (25:45):
I don't know why New Zealand and Australia fight over it.

Speaker 7 (25:48):
The only good thing on the.

Speaker 8 (25:48):
Pavlover is the kiwi fruit PAVs Okay, it's flaky, it's annoying.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
There are certain things that hold us together as a
societ who cares, no there is? There is. You have
to have shared things that you enjoy, and we have
the Pavlover. Why you were roading, why you were roading
out of societal foundations? You know, we have to have
something to come together on.

Speaker 8 (26:12):
Does this actually accidentally turn into a rage bait sink
segment because it's working.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Someone said, you're cann have ham and cheese croissants with
the ham.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
Yeah, but I could just buy him from the deli.
I could do all those things with him from the deli.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
This is it's a week of unlimited ham. I don't
think you understand how good it was.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
Fine, but the mince pies have to go.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
We're about to open the phones up to people.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
On Christmas cake and see there's not someone to come
through with some Christmas cake.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Awful Christmas cake, awful, elite I love Christmas cake of
a dense bit of Christmas cake, old man brandy out
on the bench for two weeks. Every couple of days
your mother in lawd tops up with a bit more brandy.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
It's just not good.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Eh No, all right, go on, then get it off
your chest. WoT hundred dollars it in. What how do
you want to ruin Christmas this year? What do you
want to take away from us?

Speaker 3 (27:12):
Saying suggestion from me?

Speaker 4 (27:14):
Instead of a Christmas han, think about a Christmas lasagna.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
I'd love a.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
Christmas We do it every year at our house. More good?

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Yeah, okay, get your thoughts on the podcast.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
It works, god, it is. It is very tense in
the studio.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Well, you've said some stupid things, so.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
I stand by it, stand by And you know why
I think my opinion is worth more than yours because
you've never cooked a Christmas lunch in your life.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
No, but I've eaten more than you. I'm older than you,
I've more Christmases. Also, I reckon I eat more than
you at Christmas.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
Oh mate, you don't know what on Christmas days come
out the gates with the very generic opinion that Christmas
mince pies should be taking off the menu, which I
thought better of you than that.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
I just agree with it, but I thought better than
you than that opinion.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
It's just no good.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
And then she came for the ham in the hand,
Christmas ham.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
You know what I'll say about the hell?

Speaker 2 (28:17):
I know you guys do a Christmas lasagna? Yeah, what's
what other than that? What's your main protein on Christmas?

Speaker 3 (28:22):
We do? We do a ham?

Speaker 2 (28:24):
You do do a ham?

Speaker 3 (28:25):
We do a ham, sometimes a chicken. Um. And then
we'll do a pasta alasagna.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
Christmas blood pasta. Yeah, a bunch of salads.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
What is this a regular Sunday?

Speaker 4 (28:38):
And then we'll do maybe a n ie fill it.
We do a heap, mate, we got We've got a
heap of stuff going.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
And I just Christmas buffet all the stuff. I wonder
you're willing to sacrifice the ham. You've got too much
food at your house.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
On christs Out of all the things, I just think,
I look at the ham, and I go, it's a
bit old in time.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
I look at the ham as the cinerpiece. Sheldon's see
a high Sheldon?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Hi, Sheldon, Hi? What's overrated? For Christmas lunch? Get rid
of the Turkey.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
I went through a phase of that. I was like, Oh,
I think it just needs had cooked, right.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
Who's cooking turkey in New Zealand?

Speaker 2 (29:17):
A lot of people really? Yeah, Oregon, Sheldon, you'd probably
agree there's definite being a move more towards ham than
Turkey in the last decades.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Do you reckon?

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (29:27):
I don't know if I've ever had a Christmas turkey even?

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Would you eat turkey?

Speaker 4 (29:32):
And this is what I'm saying, why are we cooking
it on Christmas Day?

Speaker 2 (29:36):
That is a fair point. You know, no one's got
any prior turkey experience. And then the most high pressure
meal of the year.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
No wonder that.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
I'm not bang out of turkey. Yeah, big Sheldon, Thanks Sheldon.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
Someone takes through and said Christmas mince pies need to go.
They are the reason I have trust issues. Every year
someone goes, would you like a pie?

Speaker 4 (29:59):
And I go off, of course, take a bite and
realize it's not a true meat pie. I have to
somehow spit it into a napkin. It's just something that
won't go down.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
It's got icing sugar on top of it. You should
use your eyes before you stick something in your mouth.
Could be cheese. My family just buys Deli sliced champagne
ham and puts that in a container and boom, really
sliced hands.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
That is not the Christmas spirit. That's anti Christmas.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
He worked up people are clean the most worked up.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
The damn fruitcake along with its almond icing. Yep, can
I just say grow up?

Speaker 3 (30:39):
The fruitcake's yuck.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
No, the fruitcake is great. You can get the one
that comes wrapped in the little cellophane and you give
money fruitcakes to each other. Yum. Someone get me a
fruitcake for Secret Center.

Speaker 3 (30:54):
Who's got cleant for Secret Santa? If I get you
for Secret Sander, I'm getting you a mince pies and
a fruitcake.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yuh, you do love me? Someone said, Brie, we are Italian.
You can't expect the PARKI hard clants to know a
good meal. Excuse me? Italians are parking hard too.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
Yeah, but we're less parking than you. You got more flavor, Yeah,
we got way more flavor. There are some very funny texts.
It's some very what about what about this text? It
says fruit mince pies should be illegal?

Speaker 3 (31:28):
The pies?

Speaker 9 (31:29):
You know?

Speaker 3 (31:29):
It says fruit mince should be illegal.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
The pies, the fruitcake, and the trifle can all suck
a wet fart.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
They're awful. Your Christmas Day just I just I reckon.
I reckon, I reckon. Wait hear me out, I reckon.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
If you came to a Christmas Day at my place,
like my family Christmas Day, I reckon, it would change
your whole outlook. It would change your whole perspective.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
I'm not anti having other things. I'm auntie you taking
away the things.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
But this is what I'm saying, Like, there can't be everything,
and sometimes.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Well it sounds like it sounds like at your house
there is everything.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
Yeah, well there is. And this is what I'm saying.
Because I'm making the lunch. I'm just saying, if you
want to streamline, a few things have to go.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
And I think the Ham's gonna go.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Someone said, I hate pev. It smells like dog. You
check your pev recipe. It should not smell like dog.

Speaker 10 (32:31):
Maybe the dog's gotten into the I think those egg
whites are offera.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Into the merangue. Dogs had a little snip for the merangue.

Speaker 7 (34:02):
Canceling ignog?

Speaker 3 (34:03):

hundred million dollars.

Speaker 7 (34:38):
I think Clint might get that.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Wait, home Alone?

Speaker 3 (34:43):
Hold what? I had? Home Alone?

Speaker 4 (34:47):
And no one answered Home Alone first, so I'm gonna
forfeit that question. But I got the grunch to be fair,
and I guessed Home Alone top the list according to Google,
with nine one hundred and fourteen million dollars gross sing
at the box office.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
Okay, here comes question number four?

Who voice the Grinch in twenty eighteen the animated film.

Love you, Emma, love you.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
Awkward Emma, love you, opportunity to leave, love you, She
said about.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
As z m's Brinklin podcast.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
You're an orange flag, as Bree, Not really.

Speaker 3 (37:19):
No, I know a red flag and a green flag,
a rainbow flag. Yeah, I know the national flag.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Okay, that's enough. Red flag obviously, do not date them, right,
That's what a red flag is. It's like a warning sign.
Green flag, Oh, you're good to go. You're like lock
this one in, Like, what's it? Could you name a
green flag?

Speaker 3 (37:42):
A green flag would be oh.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
They've got a top sheet. Is the bar that low?

Speaker 3 (37:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (37:48):
Or on Christmas lunch after everyone's eaten, they'll clean up.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
Green flag.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
You know, if they're at your family home and they go,
don't worry, I'll clean up. Oh yeah, the whole family
will that flag.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Either that or they've got a guilty conscience and they
they're doing it because something is eating them alive inside
that they haven't told you or sorry to put that
on your It's probably just a green flag.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Why does it have to be that something's eating them
alive for them to clean up if everyone else's.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
Cook I read about orange flags today, what's an orange
flag on the Herald? An orange flag is not quite
a red flag. They're more subtle than red flags, and
they could be defined as issues that need attention to
prevent them from becoming red flags.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
So what they're saying is, these are things that potentially
you could change about someone if you catch it early.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Yeah, but I find that weird because it just sounds
like a red flag. Don't date someone who has issues
that need urgent attention.

Speaker 4 (38:51):
Yeah, I just think it's a red flag, the green
with the clean SuDS, unless you're looking for a hobby
or a new project anyway.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Yeah, again, it's a red flag for yourself.

Speaker 5 (39:03):
I know.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
There's four orange flags that the Herald has listed. The
first one is called ghost lighting, which is a combination
of gas lighting and ghosting, and it's when someone you're
seeing disappears for a couple of days or weeks without explaining.
They just stop replying, and then all of a sudden,
they come back as if nothing happened, and they make

(39:26):
you feel crazy when you start asking where they've been.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
Yeah, that's a red flag. I feel like it's a
red flag too. It's games playing games if.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
You're not a fun game.

Speaker 4 (39:36):
If I'm all for the fun games, I'm all for
the chase and the fun games.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
Nah, don't like that.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
If someone you're seeing disappears for a couple of weeks
and then comes back and picks up where you left off.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
That's a red flag. I agree, red flag. They've probably
gone on a family holiday with their secret family.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
Okay, this one. Is this an orange flag. It's called
depth avoidance. They keep conversation surface level. You might hear
about how much they love a certain beer or their germ,
but you won't know anything about their relationship with their
family or their thoughts on having children. And they won't
ask you those deep questions either, because they might be

(40:13):
protecting themselves from getting hurt. But they do like the company.

Speaker 3 (40:18):
They might be.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
They might be a slow burn, though, So I do
feel like that could be that's an orange flag.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Orange. Or they might have a secret family like you.

Speaker 4 (40:26):
If you're four years into the relationship and you and
they're still like real surface level chat.

Speaker 3 (40:33):
Man, I love broccoli, I'd say that's a red flag.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Okay, Okay, But if it's just dating, if it's just
early days, orange.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
Maybe you just seem to work a bit harder to
get to know them a bit more.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Now there's four orange flags. Number three is deflection. It
says your date will pepper you with questions about yourself,
but your return questions are met with deflection or vagueness,
like they might go enough about me back to you.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
Yeah, see, I don't like that. That's different to the
one before.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
It is. It's kind of similar, but it's different. Yeah,
Like they similar ask you deep questions.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
And they want to know everything about you, but what
happens when we die?

Speaker 3 (41:13):
They don't want to reciprocate.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
Yeah, I'm boring, let's talk about you. Yeah, I don't
like that, okay, Orange or red red flag red? Okay.
Last one is situationships. Situations situationships are an orange flag.
According to this, it says in a situationship, your partner
will keep things vague, not because they want out, but

(41:37):
because they fear being in. They will love you ardently
in private, but avoid holding your hand in public, spending
weekends with you, but they won't commit to plans more
than a few days ahead, and they will not let
you use a label like boyfriend or girlfriend.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
It's okay if you're both in that boat.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
If that's what you both want.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
Yeah, and that does exist situationships.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
Yeah, people want that, you know, that's all they kind
of want, that's all they're in there.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
But I feel you need to keep chicking in on
it regularly and yeah, hey, is this still what you want?

Speaker 3 (42:09):
Someone can catch feelings.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
Yeah, you're like, hey, are we are we still cool
with this? And they're like, enough about me?

Speaker 4 (42:15):
And then as soon as soon as someone asked the question,
they go, oh, too much, I'm out.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
O cling clinging stage five, cl Bro, we've been sleeping
together for five years. Oh whoa, whoa whoa slow down?

Speaker 3 (42:29):
Years is all of a sudden the new ten years?
Is it?

Speaker 2 (42:33):
Anyway? Though? Apparently those are orange flags, they're not red.
Well some of them marines. Yeah, Cland it is Christmas
party season. This is the week. If you haven't had
your christ Christmas party yet, surely this is the week, right.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, I'd say so.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Tonight we go for the Brian Clint Show Christmas dinner.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
The guest list is tight, she's tight.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Four of us. That's it.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
In the past we have included some people, some others, but.

Speaker 4 (43:05):
Very really, really, very really I can't remember the last
time we did.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
Remember Megan got to come that time.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
That's right, because she'd done quite a big stint.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, we tossed her and invited ye.
Should we have invited Pixie this year?

Speaker 3 (43:21):
She did?

Speaker 2 (43:24):
Pixie? Can you hear us out there? Can you hear us?

Speaker 3 (43:27):

Speaker 2 (43:29):
It's last minute? But are you free tonight? And do
you want to come to the Brillon Clint Christmas dinner? Oh?
She is keen? Okay, great? Great, look at her face.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
She's not keen.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
I know because she knows that we forgot her.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
Pixie's young and cool, she got stuff on tonight.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
We didn't mean to forget you. Okay, we didn't mean
to forget that. You put in over a month helping
out on this show. Yeah, are you actually keen? Actually? King?
Do you want to look? She's got better plans?

Speaker 4 (43:57):
Yeah, she's young and cool as if she wants to
come and hang out with us.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
Okay, Well, Claudia, you're coming, aren't you?

Speaker 7 (44:03):
Am I invited?

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Do you remember you're on the Secret Center? Oh, Pisi comes,
she's not on the Secret Center. I know what you've
invited and we could just wrap up some ship that
we phind around the office.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
We can wrap my water bottle. Yeah, Pisi loves water.
She loves blue hydrating. Okay, she's listening right now.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Now, it's not a surprise.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Okay, So it's me, yep, you, Claudia, Claudia and La
And that's our Christmas dinner.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
And it's mine and breeze shout. And that's what we
do for our Christmas party. I think it's actually perfect.

Speaker 6 (44:40):
We have a little gift, we have living Yeah, we
do a gift giving secrets.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
We have some cocktails, which.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Isn't really a secret center because there's four of us.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
No, but the gifts are a secret, aren't they.

Speaker 3 (44:50):
It's pretty easy to figure out.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Yeah, And then we have some drinkies, ye, talk some
ship about some people that aren't there, good time, and
then we hit home.

Speaker 3 (44:59):
See that is the it's a great Christmas party or
a great Christmas party.

Speaker 2 (45:02):
No chance that you're going to sleep with when your coworkers,
no chance you're going to tell your boss. No, Claudia,
we're not going to not not this year.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
We're not repeating last year's festivities.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
No point, no chance of you telling your boss that
you think you could do a bit of job of
running the company than him. It's just it's just it's simple,
keep it simple, Keep it simple. Not always the case.

Speaker 3 (45:25):
Some people go too hard, to complicated too much.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Some workplaces go way too.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
So those complicated enough.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
And we have had some ripping calls from people in
the past about their let cluster Christmas parties.

Speaker 4 (45:38):
The worst ones are where people just say, we don't
even have one mentions it. No one even floats the
idea no Christmas Christmas party.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Maybe they give you, maybe they give you a voucher
for Christmas.

Speaker 3 (45:53):
No, no, how stink is that.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
Got to give? You've got to give something.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
God, there's there's one way to really ruin office morale,
no Christmas party.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
We're hoping that maybe you'll share your lackluster work Christmas
party stories with us this afternoon. And look, if it's controversial,
we can keep you and your workplace completely anonymous, yeah
for sure, or or out them.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
Maybe they'll hear it and they'll do better.

Speaker 6 (46:20):
Maybe you've already resigned and this is your last week.
You want to say, hey, I've done becall Dave.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
Christmas party sucks CDMs Bree and Clint podcast.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
We're talking about lackluster Christmas parties this afternoon. Ours is
today are Brian clint One. It's not lackluster and it's
not overly luster either.

Speaker 4 (46:39):
Well, you and I, you and I organize it. Let's
ask Claudia who's attending.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
Oh good point, Claudia, how do you feel because you
get invited to the Brian clint Christmas Party? How do
you feel about it?

Speaker 7 (46:51):
I think it's perfect.

Speaker 11 (46:52):
I think it's just the right level of us going
out out and doing something different, but it's still subtle.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
It's quite a good answer.

Speaker 7 (47:01):
And I really appreciate you guys paying for my dinner.

Speaker 3 (47:03):
Thank you so welcome.

million dollars in our work party every single year. What

probably close to five to six one hundred people usually
at the Tesbey arena and well every year this year
and that's where.

the industry that you're in without giving it away.

Speaker 9 (48:56):
There's plenty of us. So yeah, we're in real estate.

Speaker 2 (48:58):
Real estate. Okay, that tracks.

Speaker 9 (49:00):
Yeah, a real estate agent. But I work in the industry.
Yeah yeah, but it's mainly around agents. So I'm a
property manager. But we get ten minutes of same. So
I'm not going this year to waste my time.

Speaker 2 (49:17):
So why aren't you going to the quarter of a
million dollar Christmas.

Speaker 9 (49:20):
Party because it's ten minutes. I'm a property manager. I
want to get ten minutes the same. It's like I
sit there for hours.

Speaker 2 (49:25):

Speaker 3 (49:31):
Oh that sounds like a bit of a wank fist,
doesn't It sounds like work? It does sound like work.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Work.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
All we want all we want.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
Listen, if you're a boss, if you're an owner of
a company, all we want is free drinks and good
music and half a day off and half a day
off in a place to sit down.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (49:49):

Speaker 3 (49:55):
Yeah, but I don't want to listen to boring speech.

Speaker 2 (49:58):

Speaker 3 (50:07):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (50:07):
Is your work Christmas party lackluster? Or is it ball?
And like the last anonymous person.

Speaker 9 (50:13):
Oh my god, it was like the polar opposite.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
Really tell us all the details, like, well I work.

Speaker 12 (50:20):
It was like a real small family owned sort of
cafe business.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
Okay, and our Christmas.

Speaker 12 (50:26):
Party consisted of us all going to the cafe and
taking our own food.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
What was it, b yo? Yeah?

Speaker 12 (50:35):
Yeah, we had to take our own food and if
we wanted more than the te drinks out of the
custom of fridge, we had to take our own.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
Why do it? Then? I say, you know, why have one?

Speaker 2 (50:47):
So in a cafe where you cook for other people
all year? They said, now cook for yourself and bring
it with you and bring enough.

Speaker 9 (50:54):
To share with everyone.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
We had to cook more.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
I don't think anyone who works in a small family
owned cafe's a big Christmas party. But no, but but
your boss is cooking for you would be nice, right, Anonymous,
even if it's just a sausages and some drinks.

Speaker 4 (51:07):
Yeah, like, yeah, and have it at someone's house, not
at work.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
You don't want to go back to work for the
Christmas party.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
We asked about you let luster Christmas party? Someone said,
our work told us we weren't having a Christmas party
four days after they told us we made a record profit.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
That people a tone deaf.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Can you tell your employees you made a record profit
if you're not giving them any.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Yeah, just keep that to yourself.

Speaker 2 (51:31):
I worked for a very big, multi million dollar company
who put on a shitty barbecue last week and gave
everybody food poisoning.

Speaker 3 (51:38):
Oh no, no, no, someone else said.

Speaker 4 (51:41):
I once worked for a guy who was running his
business into the ground.

Speaker 3 (51:45):
There were four workers.

Speaker 4 (51:47):
It went from we can each pick a bottle of
wine to sorry, that's too expensive. We can each have
five dollars to spend at the supermarket. I got a
can of coke and a small packet of M and
M's Merry Christmas Party.

Speaker 3 (52:01):
Just don't do it.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
I wouldn't spend the five dollars out of principle. I'd
be like, or would you spend it out of principle?

Speaker 3 (52:07):
Yeah, I'd spend it out of principal.

Speaker 4 (52:08):
Hell yeah, I would I'd buy some cheerios and some sauce.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
Our huge company allows us to spend twenty five dollars
per year at the Christmas party. There's two drinks.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
That's nothing. Yeah, yeah, that is nothing.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
We're not trying to sound ungrateful here, We're not.

Speaker 4 (52:24):
No, I am ungrateful for two drinks twenty five dollars ahead.
I work my ass off all year and then you
want to spend twenty five bucks on me?

Speaker 2 (52:31):
Are you looking forward to your two drink max at
the brit Christmas party tonight?

Speaker 7 (52:35):
There's also five dollars on food?

Speaker 3 (52:36):
Or does it? B WAYO? Did you not get that email?

on the list.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):

know them if they song. I've never even heard of them.

Speaker 2 (01:05:56):
I wouldn't call it country music. That song crash into
me like a nineties yeah, like in the Blowfish Goo
Goo Dolls. I think they're always touring anyway, apparently, so

nineteen point five million tickets. Number three each Sharon has
done nineteen point six million.

Speaker 4 (01:07:11):
How much money do they need? Well, yeah, like it's
obviously not about money. No, they love it and you
go to the show and they love it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:19):
Yeah, but do they Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:07:20):
I think they love it.

Speaker 4 (01:07:21):
Yeah, but do you You always hear artists talk about
how hard touring is.

Speaker 3 (01:07:27):
Yeah, and they'd been doing it for three years straight.

Speaker 2 (01:07:30):
I think they might be the best at it. I
think they might love it. I think down pat and
do they.

Speaker 4 (01:07:36):
Just like bring a house with them, like, fly a
house all over your right, feel like they're at home.

Speaker 2 (01:07:42):
Taylor Swift's Eras tour was the first single tour in
history to gross over a billion dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:07:51):
In twenty twenty three, that did two point two billion
over two years. Wow, she has earned three point one
billion dollars from touring this millennium.

Speaker 3 (01:08:04):
Imagine that being your kid, Imagine that, Imagine just being like, Oh,
that's my offspring. I made that earning billions of dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
I always I think about that a bit, especially as
a parent myself. I go, how much credit can I
take for that? And I felt you can take most
of it?

Speaker 3 (01:08:21):
Oh you need you need good parents to bear successful.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:08:24):
Yeah, No, I'm not saying even if you've got bad
parents you can be that successful, but it definitely gives
you a great head start.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
But if your kid is a drop keeck, you're like, oh,
it's because he got in the wrong crowd. It wasn't
nothing to do with me, Oh baby, nothing to do
with us.

Speaker 3 (01:08:40):
The rest of the.

Speaker 2 (01:08:41):
Top ten Bruce Springsteen, Kenny Chesney.

Speaker 10 (01:08:45):
Kenny Chesney, country music artist, Metallica, bon Jovi, and Elton John,
which means Taylor Swift's the only female in the top ten.

Speaker 2 (01:08:53):
Really, No Beyonce, no Lady Gigar, no Adele, although Adele
doesn't tour that much.

Speaker 4 (01:08:59):
No, she doesn't like it, so yeah crazy yeah, No pink, Yeah,
where's pink?

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Which makes me because she comes to New Zealand and
Australia and she does forty five shows and they sell
out every single time. They sell out every time. She
did two Eton Park shows. But that makes me go,
is Pink only famous in New Zealand and Australia.

Speaker 3 (01:09:20):
No, it's a it's a phenomenon.

Speaker 4 (01:09:22):
It's like Robbie Williams right being famous around the rest
of the world apart from America. Is that Pink and
Pink's the same, Like she's famous in America, but nowhere
near the love.

Speaker 3 (01:09:34):
That we have for her here in America.

Speaker 2 (01:09:36):
She's no Dave Matthews band mate.

Speaker 3 (01:09:39):

Speaker 2 (01:09:44):
The most. How many times, yery can they do this
song during a Dave Matthews How is Dave Matthew's band
bigger than the Rolling Stones?
