Speaker 2 (04:20):
Thanks, Jobspace.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
They're 100% New Zealand owned, connecting Kiwis with opportunity since 2006.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
It's never nice to read these stories, but a woman
in the US has been attacked by an animal.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Oh, no.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
I know.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
I'm going to give you the headline and then I
want you and the producers to fill in the blank, okay?

Speaker 6 (04:44):
Right.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
So it says a US woman was left needing multiple
stitches after a rare attack from a relentless and aggressive blank.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh, right.

Speaker 7 (04:55):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
A rare attack from a relentless and aggressive blank. Now,
I know it's not going to be an obvious one,
so I'm going to go with a U.S. woman was
left needing stitches after a rare and aggressive attack from
a chinchilla.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
No, not chinchilla.

Speaker 8 (05:16):
I assume she got attacked and needed stitches because of
a raccoon. Ooh, that is so cute.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Actually is a great guess.

Speaker 9 (05:23):
Hey, thanks.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
But it's wrong.

Speaker 6 (05:24):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
I reckon a raccoon would get you too.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
They do.

Speaker 9 (05:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
They always are in rubbish bins.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
I like their evil little hands. They're so cute.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
You only know that because you're always in rubbish bins though.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Hey, there's some good finds dumpster diving.

Speaker 7 (05:39):
Ella?

Speaker 2 (05:40):
A beaver. A beaver.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
They're dangerous.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
Ella is wrong, but she is the closest. A US
woman was left needing multiple stitches after a rare attack
from a relentless and aggressive otter.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Shut up. An otter. You're my favourite. The cutest little animals.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
I love them.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Swimming instructor Lynette Bellen was out for a dip in
a lake.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
It is the lake, Lake Tahoe. This was a couple
of days ago.

Speaker 4 (06:11):
However, her swim on Sunday was cut short after she
felt something powerful grab her, she said.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
Did otter and powerful go in the same sentence?

Speaker 2 (06:21):
I wouldn't say so. I didn't think so, yeah. She
went on to.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Describe the ordeal that she felt like it was powerful
and it was a human that had grabbed her.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
A human?

Speaker 4 (06:32):
Before she turned around and spotted the otter. The otter
started coming after me, she said, teeth and claws. And,
you know, my only thought was I need to get
away from this. She said the attack continued to get
more and more aggressive and estimates that it went on
for around five minutes until she was eventually able to

(06:52):
climb up on some rocks and make her way back
to dry land. After she got out of the water,
she noticed that she was covered in blood due to
the bites across her face.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Arms, legs and feet.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
She was met by first responders who called an ambulance.
She was later taken to the hospital where she had
38 stitches.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Terrifying. Awful.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
38 stitches!

Speaker 3 (07:18):
How scary. Do you think if she died that people
would have been able to not laugh at her funeral
because she was killed by an otter?

Speaker 2 (07:26):
It's a wild story.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
I just googled what does an otter weigh. Because I
was like, how can they do all of this? Did
you know that some otters can weigh up to 45 kgs? Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
What?

Speaker 3 (07:38):
My golden retriever, who you've met, who's enormous, is 38 kgs.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Oh, this changes it. No, I thought an otter was
like a cat size.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
An adult otter weighs anywhere from 1 to 45 kgs,
depending entirely on species.

Speaker 9 (07:56):
But.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Asian small clawed otter? North American river otter, sea otter,
and giant otter. I've never heard of a giant otter before.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
A giant otter? Never heard of that. I've just heard
of the little cute ones.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
The giant otter is a South American carnivorous mammal.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right, so it wouldn't have been one of those.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
The longest member of the weasel family can reach up.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
To 1.8 metres long. I've never even heard of that.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
That's almost as long as me and 45 kilos.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
So because she was in Lake Tahoe, it's not one
of those.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
North America.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
That's probably like a hairy-nosed otter. The cute ones.

Speaker 9 (08:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
Gosh.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
Not a beaver though.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
I wonder if a beaver has ever attacked.

Speaker 9 (08:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
If you get a beaver, if you back a.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Beaver into a corner, I reckon they would go you.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
I'm just Googling.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Do beavers attack? I've got those big two front teeth.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Beavers do attack humans and pets, but these attacks are
rare and usually happen only when the animal has rabies.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, this woman had to get multiple rabies shots after
her otter attack.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Yeah, I'll bet.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
But she believes that the otter was protecting its babies.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
God, imagine if your beaver got rabies.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah, it'd foam from the mouth.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
There's a vaccine for that, eh?

Speaker 2 (09:25):
For rabies?

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Yes. Yeah, beaver rabies.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
I don't know if they've got that far yet. Oh, okay.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
Well, I'll work on that one. We want to know
this afternoon on 0800 dials a dim, what's the cute
creature that attacked you?

Speaker 2 (09:42):
You know, shouldn't have.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
But it did. I think back to when I was
attacked by a swan as a child. Swans are aggressive.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
On the Rotorua Lakefront. And they hiss.

Speaker 5 (09:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
One of those big black buggers.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, they're so scary.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Not the white ones.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
I've never been attacked by a white one.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Oh, they all attack if they've got babies. Yeah, right. Yeah,
they will stand their ground. What about geese? Geese are terrifying.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
I've been attacked by a geese.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
I've been attacked by a bin chicken.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Oh, yeah, an ibis.

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
You hit me on the arm when I was a kid.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
I don't mean to victim blame, but I imagine you
provoked the ibis.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
I was trying to feed the ibis.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Feed it what?

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Oh, probably something it didn't like, like vegan cheese or something.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Oh, $ 800 at M. Or you can text it to 9696.
The creature was cute. but it attacked you. That's what
we want to know about.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
You're like, what the hell?

Speaker 3 (10:35):
What the hell?

Speaker 2 (10:35):
I don't think cute things attacked.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Mum, I think I've got beaver rabies.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
That is Franklin.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
We're asking what's the cute animal that attacked you?

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Yeah, after a woman in the US has been attacked
by an otter.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
We're learning so much about otters today. We were like,
an otter would never. Someone texted in and said, I've
seen otters fight. It's one of the most aggressive things
I have ever seen. They are ferocious.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
Oh, what about the other text that said beavers can
be vicious? Watching two beavers smash into each other is
quite intense.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
I'll bet it is.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
You've got to be careful. Coralie, how are you doing? Hi, good, thanks.
You ever witnessed a beaver fight?

Speaker 9 (11:29):
I'm not quite sure where that conversation is going.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
The last time I did Coraline, I was like, damn,
that is scary.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Please get this back on track, Coraline. What is the
cute animal that you were attacked by?

Speaker 9 (11:43):
So when I was younger, I was kissing my pony
on the nose and I was like, you know, doing like, like,
probably fast kisses.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Yes, you do.

Speaker 9 (11:53):
And I think he got annoyed with me and then
he decided to bite me on the nose.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
A horse bite hurts like nothing else.

Speaker 4 (12:01):
And I'm probably really lucky.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah, you're lucky.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
Yeah, you're lucky. Yeah, exactly right. I guess what other
defence do they have? They don't have a hand to
push you away.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
They can kick you bad.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
No.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
They can't say, unless it's Mr. Ed, they can't say,
Please stop that.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, I hate that, Coraline.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
I'm not enjoying this. All right, glad you're okay, Coraline.
We appreciate it. Someone said I had a bunny rabbit
attack me. Bunny thing pissed on me and then bit me.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Bunny rabbit bites.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
That feels personal, doesn't it?

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Really hurt. I've been bit by a bunny rabbit.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Someone who's been attacked by a donkey. I've heard that
about donkeys. We had donkeys at the farm where we
got married.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Oh, really?

Speaker 3 (12:39):
And you're allowed to have photos with them, but the
donkey has to stay behind an electric fence because if
they go. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
We have donkeys on the farm now.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Do you?

Speaker 6 (12:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:49):
Well, actually, I don't know if my parents still have them,
but they got a donkey to look after the sheep
because the dingoes kept taking all the lambs and eating them.
And then the donkey was pretty dumb and was not
doing anything. So then dad bought another donkey because you
have to have more than one donkey because they get
really lonely.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Oh, okay. And so we had two donkeys and they
were quite scary.

Speaker 7 (13:11):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
They're pretty big.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
Gang up on you.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
They charged at my brother one day.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
One of your more Australian stories. Someone said, I was
attacked by a clownfish when I was snorkelling in Fiji
trying to get a good shot of it, trying to
get a good shot of a sea anemone. I choked
with laughter so hard as it swam at me and
bit my index finger. Oh, my God, you got attacked
by Nemo.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
A fish? Do fish bite?

Speaker 7 (13:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Are you a fish bite?

Speaker 7 (13:39):
Really?

Speaker 9 (13:40):
Really?

Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, well, how do you think they eat? They've got
to bite the hook.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
I feel like they'll just.

Speaker 3 (13:45):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
You know, kind of like, you know, someone who has
no teeth.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
And they just kind of like... Another one.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
I got bit by a Nemo clownfish while snorkelling. It
left a mark. Turns out they have sharp teeth and
they are dicks.

Speaker 9 (13:56):
Whoa.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Is that two different people?

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Two different people have been attacked by Nemo clownfish.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
Angry little fish.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
Someone said when I was younger, oh no, we had
that person on the phone.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
When I was 18, I rescued two ferrets. The next morning,
I got one out to cuddle it. It immediately leapt
at my face and bit me. The little shits gave me,
they have a lock jaw. My stepdad wanted to strangle
it to get it off me. Through my tears, I
managed to convince him to just try and pry its

(14:29):
jaws apart. Punctuons in my face were super hot. How's
cuddling a random ferret.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
That you found?

Speaker 3 (14:36):
Talk about rabies.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Do you have ferrets in New Zealand?

Speaker 3 (14:40):
Yeah, we've got ferrets and stoats. They eat all the
native bird eggs.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
I've never seen a ferret.

Speaker 5 (14:44):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
I don't think we have them in Australia.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Don't you?

Speaker 2 (14:47):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (14:49):
Someone else texted in and they said, my daughter got
attacked by a ladybird. It bit her when it fell
off the table at the beer garden.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
We're enjoying lunch. Multiple little sores like spider bites. True story.
From a ladybug. But they're so beautiful. Ladybugs are so cute.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
Another ferret story. I got attacked by a baby ferret.
The owner said this ferret never bites. It bloody did.
It found the soft skin between my thumb and index
finger and hung on for dear life with me shaking
the crap out of my hand trying to get it off.
It was cute, but it had sharp teeth and I
found out the hard way.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
Ferrets sound aggressive.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
Someone else said I got bit by my pet sheep, Alfred,
when patting him and it made my fingernail fall off.

Speaker 6 (15:35):
Ow!

Speaker 3 (15:37):
My daughter looks darn cute, but she can be physically
aggressive in a good rage. Yeah, those toddlers, man.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
There's nothing like a human bite.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
You know, or a human scratch. They're the worst.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Except for beaver.

Speaker 9 (15:52):
What?

Speaker 2 (15:53):
A beaver scratch?

Speaker 5 (15:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Yeah, that can be nasty.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Yeah, get that checked out.

Speaker 4 (15:58):
The Ray Gunn documentary came out on Netflix a couple
of days ago.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
We talked about it yesterday.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
I hadn't seen it at that point, but I watched
it last night and I have some thoughts.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
Ray Gunn, if you don't know who that is, where
the hell were you in 2024?

Speaker 3 (16:16):
Exactly right.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
Where the hell were you? It was the talk of
the entire Olympics.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
She got more coverage than Simone Biles.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yeah, she did.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
She was literally the biggest thing to come out of
that Olympic Games.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:31):
She was the breakdancing B-girl from Australia. Breakdancing was in
the Olympics for the first time.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
This was the first Olympics it was at.

Speaker 4 (16:41):
And Ray Gunn was there representing the Aussies and she
was awful.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Let's just put it that way.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
In breakdancing terms, she was shocking.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
She was not up to the standard of the other competitors.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Such a dynamic... Art form, breakdancing. Questionable whether it's a
sport and how you can rank a sport, like an
art form in sporting terms. But whatever it was, she
didn't have it.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
No, she didn't.

Speaker 4 (17:12):
And then the entire world was talking about it. Like
the whole world knew who this woman was.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
She captured the world's imagination.

Speaker 4 (17:21):
She copped scrutiny from every country around the world, didn't she?
Every country in the world was laughing at this woman.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah, but I feel like they wanted to laugh with her.
I feel like they offered to laugh with her. She
just refused to laugh along too. Yeah, I mean, potentially.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
We've got a piece of audio from the doco trailer.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Right before the Olympics, I went to my therapist, panicked.
She was like, what's the worst that could happen? The
whole world could laugh at me.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
She's like, do you think that's reasonable?

Speaker 4 (17:58):
There was this frenzy. It was this growing monster.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
How did this person go to the Olympics?

Speaker 4 (18:06):
I know I'm a dorky white woman who's an academic.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
And I'm a B-girl.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
I forgot that, but she scored zero.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
No, she scored zero in every battle she had, which
was multiple.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
I think she.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Battled three times and she didn't get a single point.
I mean, she did take on the world champion in
one of those, which is crazy. Look, I have been
pretty vocal on this show talking about Ray Gunn where
I felt like she had a real opportunity to take
something that was so viral and.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
Own it.

Speaker 4 (18:42):
Captured the world and to own it and to become,
you know.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (18:48):
This person where if she had laughed at herself a
little bit, she could have. rid the success of whatever
this was for the next 20 years.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
100%.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
After watching the doco, I'm going to go out on
a limb and say, look, there's still things that I
do believe are true, but I definitely think we didn't
know the whole story.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
And I feel bad for some of the things that
I've said. And I know you have your thoughts and
you think it's Ray Gunn propaganda and it's all bullshit. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
And it's all meant to make Ray Gunn look good
and this and that.

Speaker 6 (19:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Which might be true.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
Yeah. Like most Netflix documentaries.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
But also there's got to be truth in it as well,
in my opinion. Mm-hmm.

Speaker 4 (19:37):
They cover in the doco how she just went along
to this trial because it was the first time that
breaking was in the Olympics. And she went along. She'd
done breakdancing. She studied it for 10 years and she
was like, oh, I'll go along. And she was never
expecting to make it as the representative for Australia.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
She wasn't.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
She made it and she started training really hard for
a year and she goes into all of her thoughts
and feelings in the lead up to the Olympics where
she says she goes... I knew how out of my
depth I was and it caused her severe anxiety.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
And it It delves into why she did the weird moves.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
The kangaroo.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
The kangaroo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because she tried to learn all.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
These big power moves they're called in breakdancing. But she
was like, I hadn't trained in these before. I was
out of my depth. And it got to two months
before the Olympics and she was like, I'm going to
get absolutely owned.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
I can't do any of these things. So her and
her husband, who is her coach, pivoted and they came
up with these Aussie breaking moves, right?

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
But I just think, I mean, and you can have
your opinion on it.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
I just think it made me re-look at what she
actually went through as a person.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
You know, and we can sit back.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Here and say, oh, she should have had a laugh
at herself and she should have done this. But we
have never faced the kind of scrutiny. and pressure that
she would have.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
And spotlight.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
And spotlight that she would have faced in that moment. Yeah,
that's fair. It was worldwide.

Speaker 4 (21:13):
And to be honest, I don't know how I would
have handled that, but I feel bad for her because
she is just a person at the end of the day.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Of course. You know?

Speaker 2 (21:21):
So it's worth a watch, in my opinion.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
Okay, yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
However you want to look at it.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
And you promise you're not just saying this because you
bear a striking resemblance and you sound very similar... And
you are from the same country. And there are strong
rumours on the internet that you and Ray Gunn are
the same person. That's not why you're saying this. Can
I just get that on the record once and for all?

Speaker 2 (21:47):
That's not why I'm saying it.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
The world is still starved for details on the Travis
Kelsey Taylor Swift wedding. No photos, no video, no nothing.
But Travis and his brother Jason have fired up the
New Heights podcast. It's the first episode they've recorded since
the wedding. So they're not going to not talk about it, right?

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, well, they have to talk about it.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
They have to talk about it.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Have they gone on, because how long ago was the
wedding now? Feels like it was about six weeks ago.
At least, yeah. I wonder if they went on a
super big honeymoon.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
See, how would we know?

Speaker 2 (22:27):
We don't know anything.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
We don't know anything.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
I mean, maybe they cover it on the New Heights podcast.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
They have talked about a few details.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
We've got a clip of them talking about the celebrant who,
if you missed it, was Adam Sandler.

Speaker 7 (22:38):
I can't say thank you to everyone without to give
a special thank you to the Adam Sandler.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
He has been.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
Just the f * * * ing best person on
this planet.

Speaker 7 (22:49):
For him to be up for getting ordained in the
state of New York and marrying me and Taylor and
giving us more than we could have ever imagined. It
was absolutely insane.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
That's pretty incredible. I didn't realize he became a celebrant
for them. I was like, oh, I just imagined he
was one.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
Well, you're not going to become a celebrant if Taylor
and Travis ask you.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (23:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Like I would become a celebrant in a second. Have
you ever been asked?

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Yeah, my brother asked me to become a celebrant for
his wedding.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
Did you?

Speaker 3 (23:21):
Nah. Oh. Nah, you can't. Because he wanted to get
married in... He was getting married in the Wairarapa.

Speaker 6 (23:29):
Right.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
And I think you've got to become a celebrant for
your area. It's like region specific.

Speaker 6 (23:34):
What?

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
That's what I knew about it anyway. Like you have
to say.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
Wait, so if you get your celebrant license, it only
covers you for a certain area.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
You also have to, again, this is my knowledge of
doing limited research into it. Although I told my brother
I did a lot of research. You have to have
testimony from the community that you will serve as a celebrant.
So if you are like an older person, you would say,
I'm going to serve older people who want to get married.
If you're a gay person, you would say, I want

(24:04):
to specialise in gay weddings.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
Oh, it sounds like a lot of work.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Sounds like a lot of work. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
But if you become a celebrant slash DJ, then you
can earn double the money.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
And that is a radio course as old as time.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
It's up there with TV presenters becoming real estate agents.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
It's the same, same.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Radio DJs becoming wedding celebrants. That's how we do it.

Speaker 6 (24:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
Matty McLean might be the first wedding celebrant to become
a wedding DJ, to go the other way.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
Yeah, well, he usually swims upstream, doesn't he, that guy?

Speaker 3 (24:40):
You're so right.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
The ZM Podcast Network.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
I saw this video today, which is so true. And
I don't know if everybody thinks about this when you're
scrolling social media and you see like a big brand
in the comments of someone's video.

Speaker 5 (24:53):
When a brand comments on a popular TikTok and everyone's like, haha,
that's so funny because it's a brand.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
It's not.

Speaker 5 (24:58):
It's just a 21-year-old girl. She graduated in May. It's
a Gen Z girl who just graduated. This is her
first job. They're also not paying her.

Speaker 9 (25:07):
True.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
That is so true.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
You see a video and like Kit Kat will say
something or Marmite will be like, this is so relatable.
Or you'll see like Netflix be like, hee hee, lol.
It's generally, whether they're 21 or not, it's generally a
Gen Z who's been given the reins to the social
media account and they're online. So they're seeing the videos

(25:29):
and they make the connection. They go, this would be
funny if this huge global corporation was commented on this video.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
We've got one here at ZM. Her name's Katie.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
And she's great at what she does.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
She's so good.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Some of her statuses. I can't remember. There was one
that I showed you and I was like, look at this.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
Online, she is the voice of ZM.

Speaker 5 (25:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
She can comment on something. She can like something.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
She puts statuses out. She posts memes. She is powerful.

Speaker 6 (25:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
And it's power that I wouldn't want because imagine if
you were out and, you know, you'd had a few jars.

Speaker 6 (26:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
And you accidentally didn't change back over to your profile
and then you were uploading stuff to the ZM Instagram account.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
Or you were like, you know what I should do?
I should do some tweets as the ZM account.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, that'd be hell funny. And if it was 2009.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
We've all had anxiety waking up and seeing an Instagram
story that we put up that we wish we hadn't
put up. Imagine if you had done it as a
multi-million dollar brand, you know? Ella, you're in charge of
our social media. Do you ever feel this? Do you
ever feel, are you ever worried that you're logged into
the wrong account?

Speaker 2 (26:42):
I nearly posted my cat on our story.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
Yeah, that wouldn't be the end of the world, though,
would it?

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Yeah, that's fine. That's boring.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
I mean, don't do it. It is boring, but it
wouldn't be the end of the world.

Speaker 8 (26:51):
Oh, and I once on purpose put my TikTok up
on the story and you were like, Ella, take that down.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:57):
Did you guys see the Sydney Airport controversy that happened
last month where a creator had called out Sydney Airport
for not having– enough gluten-free options for breakfast at the
Sydney airport.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Yeah, I did see, yeah. Was it Sofa Dofa?

Speaker 2 (27:17):
I think so.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
Sydney airport replied with like a video and like commented
essentially and was like, we do have a lot of
gluten-free options.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
There's sushi. For breakfast. For breakfast? Who's eating bloody sushi?
And everyone was like, Sydney Airport, you missed the mark.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
Nine times out of ten, if you have a Gen
Z girlie in charge of the social media account, they
feel the vibe's right. That time it hasn't, but nine
times out of ten, they get it right. And they're
a great person to put in charge of their brand
because you don't think about it too much. They don't
go to committee. They don't go, now, is this the
right video for us to comment on? We'll bring this
up in the boardroom. Because by then it's too late. Yeah,
you've missed the boat.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
It's not funny then.

Speaker 3 (27:56):
You've missed the moment.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
Uh-huh.

Speaker 5 (27:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Yeah, the Sydney Airport one had millennial written all over it.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
I reckon worse. I reckon it had, like, corporate Gen Xer.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Oh, you reckon?

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Yeah. I reckon they, like.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
Way to call out the poor Gen Xers.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
They had a meeting about it. They had a planning
meeting about what.

Speaker 6 (28:13):
They should post.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Oh, look, then we'll upload this video.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
We want to know this afternoon, are you a Gen
Z in charge of a... Big brands, social media. We
don't have to name you. We don't even have to
name the brand. If you can just tell us what
field it's in. And, you know.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
How many followers?

Speaker 3 (28:31):
How many followers are you in charge of? And do
you feel that pressure? You know, do you feel it
as pressure? Or are you like, nah, it's just what
I do. You know, it's just what I do in
a day's work. Someone I know now does all of
the social media for the All Blacks.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Ooh.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Big job.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
Big job.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
What, one person? Surely not one person is doing that.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
No, he's part of a team of three. Yeah. And
they make all of the videos. And they're incredible. But
that gets seen by, every time they post, millions of people.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
You know who does fantastic social media is the Warriors.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Yes, they do.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
I don't know who's behind their socials, but I'm loving it.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
I think Logan Dodds is a big part of their socials.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
Is he?

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Yeah. He's a content creator himself.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
He's a content creator, so he gets it. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
It's ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
When a brand comments on a popular TikTok and everyone's like, haha,
that's so funny because it's a brand.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
It's not.

Speaker 5 (29:25):
It's just a 21-year-old girl. She graduated in May. It's
a Gen Z girl who just graduated. This is her
first job. They're also not paying her.

Speaker 3 (29:33):
They're not paying her enough. Not paying her enough to
be the voice of an entire multi-million dollar corporation. You know?

Speaker 5 (29:39):
No.

Speaker 3 (29:40):
You know definitely not so we asked do you have
the keys to a to a big brand are you
a gen zed in charge of the social media for
a major brand someone said it's not me but the
topo civil defense is definitely run by a gen zed
they post some funny updates Is that what you want
from your civil defence account?

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Well, I mean, it's grabbing that person's attention. You're right.
That's a good thing.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
I'm not going to read a boring-ass civil defence post
when it's not a civil defence emergency.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
Nah.

Speaker 8 (30:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
You've got to capture someone's imagination.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Do you put the boring people in charge of the
account when the emergency happens?

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Absolutely. And then when it's a non-emergency. You pass it
back over to the Gen Zers.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
Who does like trends and stuff. Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 4 (30:26):
Someone texted me and they said, I'm a Gen Z
in charge of a big business's social media. I've constantly
had the fear of posting things from my personal account
on there, especially when I've been having a few drinks.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
I'd almost want a separate phone. Yeah, same. You know?

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Same.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
I'd want the work phone, and the work phone has
the work password. I'd almost want the work phone glued
to the desk at work.

Speaker 4 (30:51):
I'm terrified to post anything on my own social media
these days, let alone a business's.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Someone said the night and day. company has the best
social media.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
There you go. Shout out.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
Shout out to night and day. Someone said, I get it.
I run the school social media page. I am so paranoid.
Anytime I post, especially paranoid that my spelling is correct.
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
They would be on you like crazy.

Speaker 4 (31:18):
A rash if you got a spelling mistake in there.
Ella could never do it.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
No, Ella could never. Because there's an entire community of
teachers that would be marking your social media posts.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
No offence, Ella.

Speaker 4 (31:28):
You've got so many amazing qualities and skills and talents.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
But spelling isn't your strong point, is it? Yeah, but
I haven't spelt anything wrong on you guys' pages, have I?

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Recently.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
When you do it. Recently.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
And again, with love. We think you're fantastic.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
How often do you have to get Claudia to spell
check before you post stuff?

Speaker 6 (31:49):
Every day.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Do you have any other systems? Do you like put it.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
Into Google or something?

Speaker 6 (31:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah. Copy and paste. Autocorrect.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
See if there's any squiggly lines underneath it.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
Also, a helpful tip is to sound it out.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Mountain.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Claudia, can you read out how Ella.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
spelt Charlize Theron's name when she was trying to Google her, please.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Have you ever seen this clip?

Speaker 9 (32:13):
No.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
This isn't fair.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
No, this is true. This is real.

Speaker 8 (32:17):
She spelt Charlize Theron. She spelled it S-E-R-N. L-E-A-S, Sirleus.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Sirleus.

Speaker 8 (32:26):
And the last name F-L-A-R-E-O-N, Flareon.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Flareon. Like the Pokemon.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
Sirleus Flareon.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
From Harry Potter.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Charlize Theron. Guys, it's hard.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
I don't get it. It doesn't make sense to me.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
And that's okay. What are the P's and the F's
and the C's and the H's?

Speaker 1 (32:42):
It doesn't make sense.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
Whatever.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
Someone texted her and they said, West Gold Butter social
media manager here, filming cute cows on the West Coast
creating new buttery recipes and dancing in our butter block
costumes is the dream.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
That sounds like the best job ever.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
This is so true. Someone said the Paralympics TikTok is diabolical.

Speaker 4 (33:03):
Yeah, that was getting quite a lot of traction around
when the Paralympics were on, wasn't it?

Speaker 3 (33:09):
Because they were laughing at themselves, weren't they?

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Yeah, it was quite edgy content.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
It was very edgy.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
It was real edgy.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
It was like people would see it and they'd go,
I didn't think we were allowed to make those jokes.

Speaker 5 (33:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
And they're like, you're not. We are. I remember that. Yeah,
that's right.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
And someone said, I'm going to miss Ella so much.
So are we.

Speaker 6 (33:31):
So are we.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
So it's going to be a lot less work for
Claudia if the next person who does the job can
spell simple English words.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Then it's going to be part of the test, of
the spelling test. Spell Paralympics. P-A-R-A, space, O-L-Y-M-P-I-C-S.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
There, she's got it.

Speaker 6 (33:48):
Did I?

Speaker 2 (33:48):
There's no space, though.

Speaker 8 (33:49):
Confidence is key.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
It was good.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
It was close enough. She's ready to fly the nest.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
I am.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Our little girl's grown up.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
A ZM's Brinklin Podcast.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Not really.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
But picking a movie title based on just the.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Plot line, that she can do.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Bree and Clint's What's the Plot? The big stage. Once
the plot. Once the plot. What's the plot? Once a
week is what I was trying to say. goes up
and up every time Bree wins, and it's at $ 600,
which is pretty good. Paul, you'd be keen for $ 600,
wouldn't you?

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Hi, Paul.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
I'd be very keen. Hey, guys, how are you? I'd
be stoked. You ever play this game? Paul, we've been
playing for a number of years. You ever been on
with us?

Speaker 6 (34:43):
Oh, I've been in the car screaming the answers, but, yeah,
not got through yet.

Speaker 5 (34:49):
Good.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
I'm glad someone new is getting the opportunity.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Me too, Paul. Me too.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Because Bree's beaten everyone else, so.
We're going to get some fresh blood in here. Yeah, Paul,
I know you know the rules. I'm just going to
go through them quickly for everybody else. I read out
movie plot lines. You buzz in with your name as
soon as you think you know the name of that movie, okay?
You don't wait for me to finish. You just get
in there as soon as you think you know it.

(35:13):
And if you get two movies correct before Bree does, Paul,
you'll win $ 600 cash. Legend.

Speaker 9 (35:20):
Don't forget to distract Bree for me.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Oh, yeah, we'll get Ella in here to tickle her.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Oh, that's a bit rough, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (35:28):
Come on, Brie, give us a chance.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Hey, Paul, best of luck. I hope you win.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
This week, our theme, movies based on a true story.

Speaker 9 (35:36):
Ooh.

Speaker 7 (35:37):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
I love movies based on a true story. Yeah, same.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
I don't like the ones where they're, like, loosely based
on a true story. I'm like, come on, guys. But
these are not. These are based on a true story.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Here we go, guys.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
Best of luck. Movie number one. While sailing off the
coast of Africa... A cargo ship captain and his crew.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
Paul.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Paul.

Speaker 9 (36:03):
Oh, it's the Tom Hanks one.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
I'll give you three.

Speaker 9 (36:06):
Captain Phillips.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Well done, Paul.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
One nil. Movie number two. A brilliant but socially awkward
university student becomes obsessed. Brie.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
The social network.

Speaker 9 (36:25):
Sheesh.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
It's about Facebook.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
It's about Facebook. They're doing a sequel.

Speaker 9 (36:31):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
The Social Reckoning.

Speaker 2 (36:33):
Is that what it's called? Interesting.

Speaker 3 (36:35):
I think it comes out this year too.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
Ooh.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
I wonder if it's a similar cast.

Speaker 3 (36:41):
There's someone else playing Zuck.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
But it looks good. Okay, guys. Jeez, it's one all.
This is the decider.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
Very good game, Paul. Best of luck.

Speaker 9 (36:50):
Chewy on your boot.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
Movie number three, films based on a true story. A
young adventurer sets off alone into the wilderness for a
weekend of exploring. It should all go smoothly, but an
unexpected accident leaves him trapped in a canyon. 27 hours.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
It's not 27 hours.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Oh, is.

Speaker 3 (37:18):
It not?

Speaker 9 (37:19):
Paul?

Speaker 2 (37:24):
Uh, two, uh... Give you three. Two.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
23 hours.

Speaker 7 (37:29):
One.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
It's worth a shot, Paul.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
127 hours. Oh, of course it is.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
27 doesn't seem that long, does it?

Speaker 3 (37:38):
It's pretty long to have your arm trapped under a rock.

Speaker 4 (37:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
Um, okay.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
It's still one apiece. Shit, I'm nervous now, Paul. I
don't know about you.

Speaker 3 (37:47):
Oh, shit, I'm broken. Movie number four. Still at match point,
a determined young woman dreams of becoming a successful athlete
despite having little experience and plenty of people doubting her. Brie.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Hi, Tonya. Paul, three guests.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
No idea. Yeah, neither.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Oh, carry on.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
She forms an unlikely bond with a tough, reluctant boxing
trainer who helps her develop the skills and confidence she needs.
Their relationship is tested when a devastating event changes both
of their lives forever, leading to a decision that.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
They never thought... Brie. Million dollar baby.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
She's done it. Oh, Brie did it. There was a
bead of sweat running down Bree's brow, Paul.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Oh, Paul, I was so lucky to get away there.
You played fantastic.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Legend.

Speaker 9 (38:38):
Thanks, guys.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
We have 50 KFC chicken dollars as a consolation prize. Paul,
you did a great job.

Speaker 9 (38:42):
Fantastic.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
Call back and play again, Paul. Very worthy opponent.

Speaker 3 (38:49):
When you're off sick.

Speaker 9 (38:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
We don't actually risk the money when Bree's off sick.
$ 650 next week. That's what we'll play it for.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
It's going up and up.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
Everyone's talking about this new Dyson toothbrush. You seen this?

Speaker 2 (39:05):
I have seen it. They're taking the piss, aren't they?

Speaker 3 (39:08):
They are taking the piss.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
It's gone too far.

Speaker 3 (39:11):
Dyson, the vacuum cleaner people who make great vacuums. And
what else do they do well? Oh, they do good hairdryers.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
Yeah, the hair wrap. The Dyson hair wrap is good.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
People love it. They were going to make a car
for a bit. They were going to make an electric car, Dyson.

Speaker 2 (39:24):
Remember they released those headphones recently too.

Speaker 3 (39:27):
Oh, in COVID they released those ridiculous headphones. that had
an air filter on them.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
It had a clip-on piece, which was a mask that
would go over your mouth and it would filter the air.

Speaker 5 (39:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
A friend of ours had them.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
He looked like a stormtrooper.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
He looked like, you know who he looked like? He
looked like Optimus Prime.

Speaker 3 (39:45):
Yes, that's what it looked like. Anyway, the toothbrush, the
Dyson toothbrush is coming out. It's called the Dyson Jet
Blaster or some.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Shit like that.

Speaker 8 (39:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
It's pretty crazy technology. It's an $ 850 toothbrush.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
I didn't know it was that much.

Speaker 3 (40:03):
New Zealand dollars.

Speaker 5 (40:03):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (40:03):
You can buy them now. They're at JB Hi-Fi. That's
hashtag not sponsored. Let me tell you about it, okay?

Speaker 2 (40:10):
Okay. What does it do for $ 800?

Speaker 3 (40:12):
Literally everything. Except vacuum your house. Pretty much everything else.
So it's got the most topical part of this new
Dyson toothbrush, electric toothbrush. It has a camera inside it
which films the inside of your mouth.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
I don't know if I want that footage going anywhere.
I don't know if I want that either.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
The camera is connected to the internet because they want,
they can't do it yet, but they're hoping eventually that
your toothbrush will be able to send footage to your dentist.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
The dentist?

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Who will then be able to go, you need to
come and see me. You've got a hole in your
molar or some shit.

Speaker 2 (40:48):
The dentists don't want that. That's so much admin.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
Some people aren't too happy. And I can't believe they
didn't think about this. Some people are not too happy
about the idea of having a Wi-Fi enabled camera that
lives in your bathroom.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Because where does your toothbrush sit?

Speaker 3 (41:04):
It sits on the vanity, which for most people looks
directly at the shower or the toilet.

Speaker 4 (41:09):
Yep, 100%. It's where you're naked. It's where you hop
out of the shower. You dry yourself.

Speaker 3 (41:13):
Don't want a camera in there.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
It's where you bend over.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
Unless you do want a camera in there.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
I would rather not.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
It's got a jet in it that water flosses your
teeth while you brush. So it's sitting in there, it's going...
And it's shooting mouthwash between your teeth.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
I read that.

Speaker 4 (41:35):
It like, with the camera, it like senses when there's
like a gap in your.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
Teeth and then it'll be like.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
Yes.

Speaker 8 (41:41):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
And like shoot it into the gap.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
James Dyson was showing it on stage, like how Steve
Jobs used to reveal iPhones. And he was like the
Dyson toothbrush. And then he was doing it and it
was going shooting it into the.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
Perfect place for that guy to work.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
James Dyson.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:58):
You had me for a second. I'm sounding negative. I mean,
I'm all for technological advancements.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
I don't know if we need this much technology in
a toothbrush. I'm going to go out on a limb.
I'm going to go out on a limb and I'm
going to say. Bring back the analogue toothbrush.

Speaker 4 (42:14):
I think get rid of all electric.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
So there's an analogue revolution going on at the moment
and toothbrushes.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Could be a part of it.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
I am for it. It always takes a tipping point, right?
It always takes something that's too much and we go, no, no,
we're going back to what we used to do. I'll
give you the last detail which will tip you over
the edge.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
Okay. You have to use.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
And this is where it starts to sound like a
bit of a scam.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
What?

Speaker 3 (42:37):
You have to use Dyson-specific toothpaste and Dyson-specific mouthwash because...
Because why? Normal toothpaste is too foamy and the camera
won't work. So Dyson have developed a special low-foam toothpaste
that will allow the camera to still film inside your mouth.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
That is also quite expensive.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
It's $ 18. 50 a tube of toothpaste.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
Shut up.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
Is anyone going to buy this? Yes, they will.

Speaker 4 (43:08):
People who have too much money, they're the ones that
will buy it.

Speaker 3 (43:11):
There are Dyson people the same way there are Apple people.
Is there? Who are like, they'll buy, you know, if
it comes out, they'll buy it, I think.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
You reckon that though?

Speaker 3 (43:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
Like where you have to buy an $ 18 tube of toothpaste.

Speaker 3 (43:26):
I just feel like not everything needs to have a
camera in it and not everything needs to be connected
to the internet.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
I'm so over it. You know what?

Speaker 6 (43:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (43:34):
I think this all the time, like when I go,
and I mean, I love my PlayStation. Don't get me wrong.
I love it. And the games on it are incredible.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
And, but when I haven't played it for a while,
it needs an update.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
And then I need to connect to the internet.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
And then I need, like, I don't think I can,
I'm pretty sure I can't play it without the internet.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
So yeah.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
And this is not quite an analog revolt, but Xbox
have come out. And they've teased the next Xbox that
is coming out because the new PlayStation, a lot of
the games, you can't get them on disc. GTA 6
can't get it on disc.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
Can you not?

Speaker 7 (44:11):
No.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
So you can't trade your games with your friends. You
can't swap games to have a turn.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Yeah, you can't play the whole game and then trade
it in.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
Xbox has said that in the new Xbox, all games
will be, there'll be a disc version. You can download
them if you want, but you can get a disc
version of every game.

Speaker 4 (44:27):
Yeah, but are Xbox saying that I don't need the
internet to play the Xbox?

Speaker 2 (44:31):
Oh, no, I don't know about that. See, like, bring
that back. Like, I love PlayStation, but just can we
have an offline option?

Speaker 3 (44:37):
I've also got a vibrating pack with a camera that
you stick inside your mouth. And then your dentist gets
to play Halo with you.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
And you play with your tongue.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
$ 850 toothbrush.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Great.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
Clint, the answer's Sunday. What might the question be? Oh, see,
I don't know. Father's Day.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (45:01):
That's right. It is Father's Day on Sunday. Father's Day
is on Sunday. And every year we.

Speaker 4 (45:06):
Love to play the reverse trivia game as a nod
to that iconic piece of audio.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
Father's Day is Sunday.

Speaker 9 (45:14):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
So the answer is Sunday. What would the question be?
Father's Day. Yeah. See, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
She's the best.

Speaker 4 (45:21):
Honestly, we love it so much. We've already called a
business in Toedonga. We've called somewhere in the Naki. And
I think today we will go to Wellington.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
Where are we calling in Wellington, Brie?

Speaker 2 (45:33):
We're going to call a hair salon by the name
of Sable Fine Hair.

Speaker 4 (45:36):
Let's see how they go in reverse trivia.

Speaker 9 (45:40):
Good afternoon.

Speaker 7 (45:44):
Welcome to Sable Fine Hair.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
Hi, Jenna, and welcome to the random radio game. Are
you ready to play?

Speaker 4 (45:51):
If the answer's Sunday, Jenna, what might the question be?

Speaker 3 (45:55):
She's gone.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
Oh, Jenna. Do you think it's because they don't know? Yeah,
I don't know. Or they think it's a scam.

Speaker 3 (46:05):
It does feel like a scam, but you are using
their name. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
Should we try one more?

Speaker 3 (46:09):
Let's try another one. What else have you got?

Speaker 4 (46:10):
Let's try another hair salon called Main Salon.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
Maybe Main Salon. A bit more willing.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
Yeah, maybe.

Speaker 3 (46:18):
Maybe we don't come on so hot. Okay.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Maybe just.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
Lane Salon, Sinead speaking.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
Is that Sinead?

Speaker 9 (46:25):
Sinead.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
Sinead! Hi, welcome to the random radio game. Are you
ready to play? Sinead, it's not a scam. Please don't
hang up. If the answer's Sunday, Sinead, what might the
question be?

Speaker 5 (46:41):
Oh!

Speaker 3 (46:42):
She's gone.

Speaker 5 (46:42):
Oh!

Speaker 2 (46:44):
She stayed for longer, though. I reckon she didn't know
the answer. Oh, you reckon she got.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
She wasn't... Yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
Come on, guys. One more. One more. One more.

Speaker 4 (46:54):
Okay, another hair salon in Wellington, Bedaro Hair Salon.

Speaker 2 (46:59):
Here we go.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
We believe in you, Bedaro.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
Come on, Bedaro.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
You can do it.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
Bedaro, you're speaking to Jordan.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
How can I help?

Speaker 2 (47:09):
Hi, Jordan, and welcome to the Random Radio Game. Are
you ready to play?

Speaker 3 (47:15):
Hi.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
Jordan, if the answer's Sunday, what might the question be?
Come on.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
Think about what's happening this weekend, Jordan. Come on, Jordan,
you're our last hope.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
Come on, Jordan.

Speaker 9 (47:30):
Um, sorry.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
If the answer's Sunday, Jordan, what might the question be?

Speaker 3 (47:36):
This Sunday. Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Yeah, but if I was to get that as a question...
What would the question be?

Speaker 6 (47:42):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
Oh, no, it's happening all over again.

Speaker 3 (47:48):
The answer is Sunday. What might the question be? What's
the official.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
Day for Sunday? You're so close. You're so close.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
Because you said Father's Day before.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
The answer is Sunday. What might the question be to
that answer?

Speaker 2 (48:09):
You're so close, Jordan. Like, what day is.

Speaker 9 (48:13):
What day is Father's Day? He's got it!

Speaker 2 (48:16):
He's bloody got it! Get in there, Jordan. Hi, it's
Bree and Clint from ZM. How are you?

Speaker 3 (48:22):
Good, how are you? Yeah, good. We're glad you got
there in the end, Jordan. You have won a prize,
and we're so sorry to put you on the spotlight thus, but,
you know, someone had to represent Wellington, and I think
you've done a fine job.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
Done a fantastic job. Can we get one last thing
from you? Can we just get you saying, oh, see,
I don't know?

Speaker 6 (48:41):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
She's great.

Speaker 3 (48:42):
She's perfect. She's nailed it. Hold there, Jordan.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
We'll give you a prize, okay? Happy Father's Day.

Speaker 6 (48:46):
Thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
See you, Jordan.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Happy Father's Day?

Speaker 2 (48:49):
What am I doing? Jordan, when did you become a father? See,
I don't know, eh? See, I don't know. Evening, everybody.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
If you're just joining us, good to have you here.
You're just in time, too, to wish Brie a happy birthday.

Speaker 2 (49:09):
Oh, thanks, guys. Producers, happy birthday. Thank you. Hey, happy birthday.
Thanks so much. My second birthday.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
She does remember, yeah. You might remember last year Bree
changed her birthday.

Speaker 2 (49:26):
I 100% want a new birthday. Good on you. Yeah,
I think it's a great concept.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
I'm looking at you and I'm thinking September.

Speaker 8 (49:33):
Third.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
I feel September-ish. You just seem like a spring breath
of fresh air.

Speaker 6 (49:38):
I like it.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
To celebrate, I am going to a KFC event tonight and.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
Eating whatever I want.

Speaker 3 (49:46):
Yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
Did you guys get me something?

Speaker 3 (49:48):
Yeah, Ella's in charge of the present this year. Ella,
what did we get her?

Speaker 2 (49:51):
I got you some pizza slices.

Speaker 9 (49:53):
Cool.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Can you bring it in?

Speaker 6 (49:55):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (49:55):
That she's currently eating.

Speaker 2 (49:57):
Are you eating my pizza that you got me for
my birthday?

Speaker 8 (50:00):
She got you a vegan pizza.

Speaker 2 (50:02):
So I have some vegan pizza.

Speaker 5 (50:03):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
A half-eaten vegan pizza. Is there a returns policy on that?

Speaker 4 (50:11):
I was talking to a friend of mine last night
who shared a conundrum that she's currently in. So she's
been dating this guy for about six months or so
and things are going really well. They get along really well.
They have fun together. But there's one small problem. She

(50:34):
told a lie early in the relationship.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
Oh, no.

Speaker 4 (50:38):
And she said to me, and once you hear what
the lie was, you'll understand. But she said to me,
she's like, I don't think I can continue with this
lie anymore.

Speaker 3 (50:50):
Before you tell me the lie, did she not think
the relationship was going to be a long-term thing? You know?

Speaker 2 (50:56):
I don't know if it was about that.

Speaker 3 (50:58):
Because I've told girls I'm a doctor before.

Speaker 2 (51:00):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
But I wasn't looking. I wasn't looking for anything long term,
you know.

Speaker 2 (51:05):
Didn't you say you would go around saying you're a gynecologist?

Speaker 3 (51:07):
No, I did not. No.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
I swear.

Speaker 3 (51:09):
I experimented with an Irish accent one New Year's.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
Right. Okay. No, it's not about her job or what
she does.

Speaker 4 (51:19):
And I don't think it was about her not thinking
the relationship had legs. I think it was more, and
I mean, she'll correct me if I'm wrong, but I
think she was trying to impress him.

Speaker 3 (51:29):
Of course.

Speaker 2 (51:29):
Because she liked him.

Speaker 5 (51:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:31):
A lot.

Speaker 2 (51:31):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 5 (51:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
So she went all in.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
The thing she lied about.

Speaker 4 (51:37):
And wait, let me just, I need to paint a picture.
She is someone who loves pop music.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
Top 40 is her life.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (51:50):
Always has been. Yep. Always will be.

Speaker 5 (51:52):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (51:52):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
But when she started dating this guy, one of the
first things she found out about him is that he
is super into alternative music.

Speaker 2 (52:03):
Oh, okay. And she said, so am I.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
Me too.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (52:10):
What kind of alternative music? Because there's alternative music like
the stuff on the other stages at Laneway. And then
there's alternative music like the stuff they play at WOMED. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:22):
Put it this way.

Speaker 4 (52:23):
I've never heard of a single band that he has
dragged her along to which she has had to pretend
like she loved. And she said to me last night,
she's like, I can't sit through another one of these concerts.

Speaker 3 (52:36):
That's tough, especially if one of the cornerstones of their
relationship is going to concerts.

Speaker 2 (52:43):
I was like, I said to her. I said you
need to come clean. Oh, but it's a pretty big lie,
isn't it?

Speaker 3 (52:54):
Is it or is it kind of funny? You know,
it's a good test for the relationship to see if
they can see the funny side of it.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
And to see if they can go, you know what?
It's not actually something that matters. They didn't lie to
me about anything serious.

Speaker 9 (53:07):
No.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
It's actually quite sweet. They pretended they faked an interest
in one of my interests. But then some alternative music
people are real sort of purist about it and they
might be like, are you telling me you don't like
Gorgonzola and the Godzillas?

Speaker 2 (53:23):
You lied to me about that? You lied to me?
You lied to me about Parakeet Pete? You're not a Gorgonzola?
I love Parakeet Pete. I've followed him for years. Are
you telling me? All two and a half albums.

Speaker 3 (53:35):
Are you telling me you were pretending to like Limp
Wet Fish?

Speaker 2 (53:39):
But you were so into it.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
You went to that three-day festival where we saw them
three days in a row.

Speaker 2 (53:46):
You bought the Limp Wet Fish T-shirt. We got matching
Limp Wet Fish tattoos. I feel bad for her.

Speaker 4 (53:52):
Because I said to her, I was like, are there
any other issues?

Speaker 2 (53:56):
She goes, no.

Speaker 4 (53:57):
She goes, not a single one. She's like, but I
can't do it anymore. She's like, I'm so bored at
these concerts.

Speaker 9 (54:02):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (54:02):
And this could be a long shot. There may be
something that he lied about too. And it could be
a real sort of mea culpa for both of you. Yeah,
he's like, I'm married.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
I'm married with kids. Surprise. Call it even? Call it even.

Speaker 4 (54:16):
It's been weighing on me. I'm so glad we can
both get this off our chest. You're the right person
to talk about this, though, because you have done this.
You have entered a relationship on false pretenses.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
I did.

Speaker 3 (54:27):
You have built a relationship on lies. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (54:31):
It was a bad decision, and I don't recommend it.
Started dating this guy. It was at the start of winter.
He was a surfer and I knew that and I
found that very attractive and I connected with him through
my love of surfing as well.

Speaker 3 (54:47):
Which doesn't exist.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Which doesn't exist. But in my brain, I was like,
it's winter. We're not going to have to go surfing together.
That's future Bree's problem. I can worry about that later. Anyway,
spring rolls around. He's like, let's go surfing.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
Get our spring suits out.

Speaker 2 (55:04):
And I was like, I think we need to break up.
I'm allergic to the ocean.

Speaker 6 (55:08):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
It's a new thing. Hey, been meaning to talk to you.
It's not you, it's me. Wait, so you never came clean?

Speaker 3 (55:13):
You just broke up?

Speaker 2 (55:14):
Nah, I bailed.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
Wow. Well, that's the other way to do it. Someone's
texted in and said the only option is to phase
it out.

Speaker 2 (55:21):
Phase it out? Like on Friends? Just slowly, just slowly
fade out. Identified! Friends. Fans will get that reference.

Speaker 3 (55:31):
0800M, text 9696. We want to know, did you tell
a lie early in the relationship? And did you eventually
have to come clean? Or did you die with the lie?
Does that person still believe that you are an aid
worker in Africa six months of the year? And that's

(55:52):
how you got out of the relationship.

Speaker 9 (55:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
What is the lie? I've had a fantastic six months
with you, but Uganda calls.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
I've got to move to Yemen. There's salmon a-calling. Back
to Yemen. In Yemen.

Speaker 3 (56:10):
Did you tell a hot Swedish backpacker that you were
an all-black? You know?

Speaker 6 (56:14):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 (56:16):
They're not going to know.

Speaker 2 (56:17):
Well, they could Google you.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
Yeah, well, that's why you tell them your name is
Ma'a Nonu.

Speaker 2 (56:22):
They're like, you look nothing like this guy.

Speaker 3 (56:25):
You're white.

Speaker 2 (56:25):
You don't even have dreadlocks.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
Yeah, I shaved them off. And the skin colour? Let's kiss.

Speaker 2 (56:32):
You know Michael Jackson? Fiddle-igo? Fiddle-igo. That's what Michael Jackson said.

Speaker 7 (56:39):
Didn't he?

Speaker 3 (56:39):
This person wants to be anonymous because they are the
one that lied.

Speaker 4 (56:42):
Hello, anonymous.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
Hi, anonymous.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
Hi, anonymous. Hi, is that me?

Speaker 9 (56:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (56:47):
What lie did you tell early in the relationship?

Speaker 9 (56:50):
Firstly, can I just say long-time listener, first-time caller.

Speaker 3 (56:53):
Oh, my gosh. But are you telling the truth or
are you lying?

Speaker 9 (56:59):
I'm telling the truth.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
Okay, that one's the truth.

Speaker 2 (57:01):
Well, we love that.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
What was the lie you told earlier in the relationship, Anonymous?

Speaker 9 (57:05):
So pretty much I started seeing this guy just as
a fling.

Speaker 6 (57:10):
He then went off to the army for 13 weeks
basic training.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Okay. Told me I could do whatever I wanted.

Speaker 7 (57:17):
You know, I wasn't tied down.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
We weren't anything.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (57:20):
Got drunk in town one night.

Speaker 2 (57:22):
Obviously, you know, in town.

Speaker 9 (57:24):
Drunk, things are going to happen.

Speaker 6 (57:26):
I ended up telling him the full part of the truth.

Speaker 9 (57:31):
Because I felt like the other half didn't really need
to be.

Speaker 2 (57:34):
You said the full part. Oh, did you say the
full half truth? I told him.

Speaker 3 (57:39):
Half of the truth. Okay.

Speaker 9 (57:41):
Of what had happened. And then just because I felt
like the other half, like I wouldn't want to know
if he.

Speaker 2 (57:47):
Did what I did.

Speaker 3 (57:48):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (57:49):
And then he got back from training, went to a
party and found out asked me about it i was
put on the spot so i ended up like lying
in the spot and then my my friend was ripping
into me for it so i ended up just telling

(58:09):
him randomly one morning um the truth the whole truth
the whole truth okay the whole truth Um, and then
we didn't speak for about a.

Speaker 9 (58:18):
Week cause he needed some time.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (58:21):
Um, and now we're official. Um, I'm his first girlfriend
and yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:27):
You're going strong. How long have you been dating now? Uh,
only a month, but. I have a question.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
Did we cover, did we cover at the start? Were
you guys boyfriend, girlfriend official before he went away?

Speaker 9 (58:41):
No.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
Oh, well, you're fighting.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
And he said you can do whatever you want, right?

Speaker 9 (58:44):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (58:46):
I mean, you probably shouldn't have lied, but it's an
awkward spot for you to be in, isn't it?

Speaker 9 (58:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
I mean, you didn't do anything wrong in my eyes,
apart from the lying.

Speaker 3 (58:55):
God, he's going to be so nervous if he ever
has to go away to war, though, Anonymous.

Speaker 6 (58:59):
Oh, don't even get me started on the whole war thing.

Speaker 9 (59:02):
It makes me so scared.

Speaker 3 (59:04):
Either you're scared, he's terrified of what you're going to
do in town if he has to go to war,
you know?

Speaker 2 (59:10):
Thanks, Anonymous. This person wants to be anonymous too. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous.

Speaker 8 (59:14):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Did you tell a lie early in the relationship?

Speaker 6 (59:18):
I did, yeah. I told my partner that I, like,
loved Star.

Speaker 1 (59:24):
Wars, that I loved.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
Lord of.

Speaker 6 (59:26):
The Rings, and I was super nerdy towards those.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Kind of things.

Speaker 9 (59:30):
And he loves those movies, and we watch it all
the time. And I always end up, oh, it's such
a good movie.

Speaker 2 (59:37):
So good.

Speaker 3 (59:37):
I love the... It's such a good movie.

Speaker 4 (59:40):
I think that lie's fine.

Speaker 3 (59:42):
But let me guess, Anonymous, you can't stand Lord of
the Rings or Star Wars.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
Oh, God, no.

Speaker 3 (59:50):
So you're still in the relationship and you're still in
the lie. Is that why you're anonymous?

Speaker 9 (59:54):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (59:55):
You could have lied and said you liked a shorter
movie trilogy.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
You know?

Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
Or one with less dressing up.

Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
Yeah, it's just so long.

Speaker 4 (01:00:04):
He wants to watch The.

Speaker 9 (01:00:05):
Lord of the Rings again.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
And I'm like, oh, maybe not now. Maybe, yeah, we'll
just play. There's so many other things to watch.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Good.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Deflect, anonymous. Deflect. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, God. Do
you think you'll ever come clean?

Speaker 9 (01:00:20):
It's been so long now.

Speaker 2 (01:00:21):
How long? Make him feel bad.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
How long has it been?

Speaker 6 (01:00:24):
We've been together for 16 years.

Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
Oh my God!

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
How many times in that 16 years do you reckon
you've watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy?

Speaker 6 (01:00:33):
I think we've watched it about the whole three movies
like every year probably.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
You're screwed. And there's a new one coming out too.
There's a new Lord of the Rings movie coming out.

Speaker 9 (01:00:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
And you're like, oh shit, not this stuff again.

Speaker 3 (01:00:48):
Thank you, Anonymous. We asked, did you start your relationship
off on a lie? Someone said, my husband got dragged
along to musical theatre for 10 years before he fessed
up to me that he actually hated musicals. When we met,
I was a dancer in a stage show and he
came along four times.

Speaker 5 (01:01:05):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:01:06):
He led me to believe that he loved theatre, but
he was just there being a perv on me. I
thought it was hilarious.

Speaker 2 (01:01:13):
That's amazing. There's commitment, though. There's commitment.

Speaker 4 (01:01:16):
And he deserved to be dragged along to musical theatre
for 10 years.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
This one's so good. It says, my ex-boyfriend was an author.
He gave me his book. I had to pretend that
I'd never read it.

Speaker 4 (01:01:30):
I did, in fact, read it, but it was so
bad that I couldn't think of anything nice to.

Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
Say about it. Oh. You're like, oh, thanks so much.
He's like, have you read it?

Speaker 6 (01:01:41):
Nah.

Speaker 2 (01:01:41):
Nah. I haven't, but I will.

Speaker 3 (01:01:45):
I told a partner that I love skydiving. I am
terrified of heights. My partner is a skydiving instructor.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
Holy moly.

Speaker 3 (01:01:53):
You're doing a skydive.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Yeah, it's happening.

Speaker 3 (01:01:55):
You're doing a skydive.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
Who says they love skydiving? Yeah, why would you say that?

Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
I'm a skydiving instructor.

Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
Oh, that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:02:02):
I actually love skydiving.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
It's my favourite. It's one of my favourite things to do.
What about this text?

Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
I told my boyfriend who was a complete hippie that
I loved camping, bought an entire hippie wardrobe and went
on holidays in his work van. It was a case
of a slow letdown when he realised I'm as high
maintenance as they come. We are now married with two
kids and the high maintenance is in full force.

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
Ditching my Louis Vuitton.

Speaker 4 (01:02:28):
Handbag for a tasseled henna handbag definitely came in my
bridesmaid's speech.

Speaker 2 (01:02:33):
Safe to say he tolerates the real me.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
That's love. That's true love.

Speaker 2 (01:02:37):
That's love right there. Because you love every part of someone.

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
You were willing to fake it for him and he's
willing to accept the real high maintenance you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:44):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:02:45):
Z & M' s Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Time for a birthday banger.

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
Brie and Clint.

Speaker 6 (01:02:49):
All I want for my birthday is.

Speaker 7 (01:02:51):
A birthday banger.

Speaker 2 (01:02:52):
All right, let's do your birthday bangs.

Speaker 4 (01:02:53):
Number one songs when you turn 16.

Speaker 2 (01:02:56):
Who we got first?

Speaker 3 (01:02:57):
Kurt is going first. Kia ora, Kurt.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
Hi, Kurt. How you doing? Good, mate. What have you
been doing today?

Speaker 4 (01:03:04):
Working?

Speaker 7 (01:03:05):
Yeah, I've just been at work.

Speaker 2 (01:03:06):
What do you do? I drive a Ford Contini.

Speaker 3 (01:03:10):
You missed a little bit. You drive a forklift. A
forage harvester. A forager harvester?

Speaker 2 (01:03:17):
Forage harvester.

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
Yeah, I have a two-sided chop silage for cow feed.

Speaker 9 (01:03:23):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:23):
Oh, yeah, nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, nice. All right, you
got Zeddy on in the cab?

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Yeah, 100%. Excellent, mate. Do you love watching Clarkson's Farm?

Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
Well, I'm actually not a big fan of Clarkson's Farm.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
Really?

Speaker 3 (01:03:38):
Yeah. Is it because he got a robot tractor and
that's that do you out of a job?

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Yeah, he's not a real farmer.

Speaker 3 (01:03:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:46):
Not a real bloody farmer.

Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
All right, Kurt, let's do your birthday bang and what's
your date of birth? I think I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:03:50):
Supposed to say 1998.

Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
Right, that means you were 16, Kurt, in 2014.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
And on that day, this was number one.

Speaker 8 (01:03:58):
Because you know I'm all about that bass, about that bass,
no trouble.

Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
I have a feeling Kurt's not going to be happy
with that either.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
You don't know, Kurt could be a raging Meghan Trainor fan. Kurt,
what do you reckon?

Speaker 2 (01:04:11):
That's a story, that's for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
It's been a long time since I've heard this song.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
It's been a while since I've heard it too.

Speaker 3 (01:04:18):
She's had to change the lyrics to the song because
she lost so much weight.

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
Yeah, she's so tiny now. All right, wait there, Kurt.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
We're going to go and do Charlie's sister's birthday banger. Hi, Charlie.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
Hi, Charlie. Hey, how's it going?

Speaker 3 (01:04:33):
Good, very generous of you to do your sister's birthday
banger instead of your own.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Well, yeah, I thought I might embarrass her more than me.
That's fair. What is your sister's birthday? It's today, actually.
The 3rd of.

Speaker 4 (01:04:46):
December, 1985.

Speaker 3 (01:04:47):
Wait, wait. That makes sense now. What is your sister
doing for her birthday tonight?

Speaker 4 (01:04:52):
Well, I'm sending my children around there to hang out
with her because I'm actually on the way to the airport,
so I don't get to spend it with her today.

Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
Wait a second. For her birthday, you're dropping your kids there?

Speaker 8 (01:05:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:04):
Yeah, but she's doing her birthday banger, so it makes
up for it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
Yeah, I see. All right, what's the birthday girl, Megan's? Oh,
we've got it, don't we?

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
We've got it. You've got it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:09):
That means your sister was 16 in 2001, and you
can tell her that this is her birthday banger.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
One for the money and the free rides, it's two
for the life of me. It's a great one. Blue
All Rise. Do you like it, Charlie? Yeah, I think
that's a good one. I told her to listen in,
so I think she'll be pretty happy. Yeah, I think
she'll be happy with that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:32):
You said, tune in to ZM and look after my kids.

Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (01:05:36):
Happy birthday.

Speaker 3 (01:05:38):
One more for Vanessa.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
Hi, Vanessa. Hi, Vanessa. Hi, guys. Hello. Where are you
on your way to, Vanessa?

Speaker 4 (01:05:45):
Um, I'm meant to be going home to feed my children,
but I'm parked up to do my birthday banger because
I think it'll be a goodie.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
They can wait. We love that, Vanessa.

Speaker 3 (01:05:52):
Yeah, they can wait.

Speaker 4 (01:05:54):
Let's see if you neglecting your children is worth it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:57):
What is your birthday?

Speaker 6 (01:05:58):
September 7th, 1992.

Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
Oh, this weekend. That means you were 16, though, Vanessa,
in 2008. And on that day, this was at the top. Yeah.
I feel like it suits you, Vanessa.

Speaker 9 (01:06:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:06:19):
It's a huge anthem from Pink.

Speaker 4 (01:06:21):
Yes, love.

Speaker 3 (01:06:22):
What are you going to do for your birthday? Is
it this weekend or is it Monday?

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
It's on Monday.

Speaker 3 (01:06:27):
On Monday. What are you going to do?

Speaker 2 (01:06:28):
That'll be up to my husband.

Speaker 6 (01:06:30):
So I've got to put the pressure on him, take
the day off.

Speaker 7 (01:06:34):
He is.

Speaker 9 (01:06:34):
He's hopefully doing something.

Speaker 3 (01:06:36):
Nice for me. Okay.

Speaker 9 (01:06:38):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:06:38):
Wait there, Vanessa. We're going to decide between Pink, Blue,
Meghan Trainor. I reckon we're doing it for, well, I'm
going to vote for Charlie's sister, Megan, on her birthday. Blue.

Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
Yeah, it's a ripper.

Speaker 3 (01:06:48):
Yeah? Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
Charlie.

Speaker 6 (01:06:51):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:06:52):
You've lucked in. It's a great present for your sister.
She's one birthday banger.

Speaker 6 (01:06:56):
Thank you, team.

Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
I would almost say she owes you now.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
Well, yeah, she can have my children.

Speaker 6 (01:07:01):
I know my daughter's keen to do her makeup for her.

Speaker 8 (01:07:03):
Boom.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
There you go. Everyone wins. From 2001, here's Blue ZM.

Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
Birthday banger from Blue on ZM with Brian Clint. It
was number one today in 2001. Exactly, exactly 25 years
ago today.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
I wonder where the Blue Boys are.

Speaker 3 (01:07:30):
The Blue Boys?

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Yeah, the Blue Boys.

Speaker 5 (01:07:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:07:32):
I thought you were about to say something else there.

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
Nah, not me.

Speaker 9 (01:07:35):
Blue Boys.

Speaker 2 (01:07:36):
Yeah, the Blue Boys. Blue Boys.

Speaker 3 (01:07:37):
Blue Boys.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
It's ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:07:41):
I'm a show of hands who grew up in the 90s.

Speaker 4 (01:07:44):
Me.

Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
Me. Claude. Me.

Speaker 3 (01:07:46):
Me.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Not me.

Speaker 5 (01:07:47):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
It's just a baby.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
The 90s were a different time. They were the wild,
wild west in some ways. And in my opinion, a
lot of ways, the best.

Speaker 3 (01:07:58):
Yeah, we would say that, but yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
The 90s were good.

Speaker 4 (01:08:01):
I came across this girl who grew up in the 90s.
Her name's Rachel and she's posted online.

Speaker 3 (01:08:07):
Such a 90s child name.

Speaker 2 (01:08:09):
Rachel.

Speaker 3 (01:08:10):
Rachel.

Speaker 5 (01:08:10):
100%. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
Posted online.

Speaker 4 (01:08:12):
It was a photo of herself looking sad, and there's
text over the photo, and it says, Hey, guys, I
am so burnt out and depleted, but I don't want
kind responses.

Speaker 2 (01:08:23):
I want you to respond to.

Speaker 4 (01:08:25):
Me like a 90s parent who has no concept of
work-life balance.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
And the replies are outrageous.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
I thought we could play a little game where I've
just taken a bunch of the responses. And I want
you guys to put them in the category mild, medium,
or spicy.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Okay. Depending on how savage they are.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
From mild 90s parenting to spicy 90s parenting.

Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
Correct. Are we all ready to play?

Speaker 6 (01:08:51):
Ready.

Speaker 4 (01:08:52):
Okay, here comes the first one. Someone said, so response,
so she has said to her parents, I'm so desperate.

Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
And burnt out.

Speaker 4 (01:09:02):
And her parents respond with, well, if you didn't stay
up so late, you wouldn't be tired.

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
Pretty mild.

Speaker 8 (01:09:08):
But peak.

Speaker 2 (01:09:09):
Mild but peak. I feel like it's mild.

Speaker 7 (01:09:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
Next is.

Speaker 3 (01:09:14):
But quintessential as well. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
Yeah. Next response, give.

Speaker 4 (01:09:18):
It another 30 years and then you can complain to me.
That is classic parents.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
That's PASAG boomer. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:09:26):
Isn't it? Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
100%. Where's that going?

Speaker 9 (01:09:29):
Middle.

Speaker 3 (01:09:30):
Middle, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
Yeah, I'd have to agree.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
The irony is no one complains more than the boomers.

Speaker 2 (01:09:35):
But, yeah, anyway. What about, well, Rachel, life is hard
and then you die. Whoa.

Speaker 6 (01:09:41):
Brutal.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
Do you remember when people used to say that?

Speaker 6 (01:09:43):
Yes.

Speaker 8 (01:09:43):
That's awful.

Speaker 3 (01:09:45):
Spicy.

Speaker 6 (01:09:45):
Spicy.

Speaker 2 (01:09:45):
That's spicy for sure. What about this one? It's always
something with you.

Speaker 7 (01:09:51):
Oh, spicy.

Speaker 3 (01:09:52):
Oh, that sucks. Yeah, that sucks. That's just shit parenting.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
Yep. What about this one? Quit crying before I give
you something to cry about. That's dumb. That's medium. No,
that's mean. Illegal.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
That's low medium.

Speaker 2 (01:10:09):
This one I quite enjoy.

Speaker 4 (01:10:11):
Hey, burnt out and depleted, I'm dead.

Speaker 6 (01:10:13):
Yes!

Speaker 3 (01:10:16):
You know one of my favourite things about being a
dad is getting to use those on my kids. And
they're not.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
Too old to have a laugh about it yet. I get, oh, dad.

Speaker 3 (01:10:25):
Oh, that's so silly, dad.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
What about, well, at least you get to buy yourself
nice things. I never had nice things. Oh, my God.

Speaker 3 (01:10:33):
I say glimmer again. That's not nice. Medium.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
What about, well, here's a lesson for you, Rachel. Life's
not fair.

Speaker 3 (01:10:39):
Ah, mild.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
Mild, but... Rude.

Speaker 5 (01:10:44):
Blunt.

Speaker 2 (01:10:45):
Okay, here we go.

Speaker 9 (01:10:46):
True, though.

Speaker 2 (01:10:46):
What about.

Speaker 4 (01:10:49):
Lights a cigarette inside and says, Rachel, I was working
three jobs with no car and $ 2 jandals in the
dead of winter, all whilst being nine.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
Months pregnant with you. Don't talk to me about being tired.

Speaker 3 (01:11:06):
And smoking.

Speaker 2 (01:11:08):
Where's that, girls?

Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Medium.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
Yeah, medium. Okay. One more for the road.

Speaker 4 (01:11:16):
This is in response to if you said to your parents,
I'm so burnt out and depleted, and your parents hits
you with, well, maybe if you lost a little weight,
you wouldn't be so tired.

Speaker 3 (01:11:27):
Spicy.

Speaker 2 (01:11:28):
Too spicy.

Speaker 3 (01:11:29):
Do you know what a 90s parent would actually say
to that?

Speaker 6 (01:11:32):
What?

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
What's burnout?

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
I've never heard of it. I don't think that word
existed in the 90s. I think you're making words up again, Rachel.
