We're playing it. It's ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM's Bree and Clint, thanks to KFC. Good afternoon, everybody,
and welcome to the Bree and Clint show on the

(00:23):
day after Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
How was your Father's Day?

Speaker 4 (00:26):
Lovely.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Lovely. What did you get up to? We went for
a walk at the dog beach. Lovely. I had some
family around for dinner.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Did you get your favourite meal cooked for you?

Speaker 1 (00:37):
No, I cooked the barbecue, actually.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Yeah, that's one of your favourites, barbecue?

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, nice. It was nice. Did you
call your dad?

Speaker 5 (00:46):
I didn't call my dad, actually.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Did you not?

Speaker 5 (00:48):
I sent him a long, mushy text.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
He would have been busy. I was busy, to be honest.
I was in the trenches yesterday, and he understood.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
I like to think of your dad just sitting beside
the phone all day. Just saying to your mum, it's
going to ring.

Speaker 5 (01:03):
If there's anything I know.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
It's going to ring.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
If there's anything I know about my father, he never
sits by the phone.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Nah, he would have had his Bluetooth earpiece on.

Speaker 5 (01:13):
In the tractor.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
He would have been like, are you sure it's charged?
Are you sure it's charged?

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Can you call it to check?

Speaker 5 (01:21):
Call it to check it's working.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. Fun
show on the way for you guys today. We will
be drawing our winner for Rhythm and Alps Ticks for Six. Yeah,
we're giving away six tickets to Rhythm and Alps 2026
this afternoon. We'll do it at five o'clock. Maybe, just maybe,
still a chance for you to get in that draw
if you hurry and text ALPS, A-L-P-S, to 9696.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
You better move your A-S-S because that competition is closing
any minute now.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yeah, move your A-S-S. A-R-S-E. Claudia, are we allowed to
swear on this show if we spell it? I feel
like if you replace a letter with a number, maybe.
Depends on what you want to spell. You know what
I want to spell.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
Go on, you try it.

Speaker 6 (02:08):
You won't.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Bet you won't.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
I dare you.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Actually, you can do what you want, Clint. You do
what you think.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Is right, okay? Claudia's been trying for ages to get
me fired, so I'm not trusting that advice. Let's get
into Tradie vs.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Lady.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Job Space is on board. There's $ 100 cash up for grabs.
Thanks to our mates at Job Space. And if you're
keen to play Tradie vs. Lady, now is your big opportunity.
Tradie's at 75, Lady's at 70. Play ZM's Bree and Clint.
This is the main event. Tradie vs.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Lady.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Thanks to Job Space. That's right, Jobspace on board. We've
got $ 100 cash up for grabs because they're celebrating 20
years of Jobspace. You can find your next opportunity at jobspace.co.nz.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
Score update for you for the year. The tradies on 75,
the ladies on 70.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Our ladies are Matamata. She's 31 and she is a
huge Swifty. Welcome to the show, Taylor.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Hi, Taylor. I mean, fitting name considering you're a huge Swifty.

Speaker 6 (03:09):
Yes, even spelt the same.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
Did you get to go to the Eras tour?

Speaker 7 (03:13):
I did.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Were you named after Taylor Swift?

Speaker 7 (03:16):
No, unfortunately not.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
I was named after someone from.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
The Bold and the Beautiful, apparently. Were you actually?

Speaker 5 (03:23):
That's so interesting.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Which character were you named after?

Speaker 3 (03:27):
I think your name was Taylor.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh, yeah, that makes sense. You're taking on our trainee
from Dunedin. He's 22, and he can spit up to
10 metres. Now we're talking. Welcome to the show, Matt.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
Hi, Matt.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Hey, how you doing?

Speaker 3 (03:39):
How did you figure that out, Matt, dare I ask?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Me and my mates were playing a bit of spit tag,
and I just got this real good long-range shot, and
I kind of realised I can... Never have I ever
heard the phrase spit tag.

Speaker 7 (03:54):
Oh, you've been missing out.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
Whereabouts was that game created, Matt?

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Just at primary school.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
A lot of sports suffered during COVID. I feel like
spit tag may have been one of the ones that
suffered the most. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
Unfortunately.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
What a real loss to the sporting world.

Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Do we have a national team? The Spitblacks?

Speaker 7 (04:20):
The Spitblacks. Trying to get one started up.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You be the captain.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Matt will be the captain.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
You're tradie. That's your buzzer. Taylor, lady, first of three
correct answers gets $ 100 cash from Jobspace. Let's go.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
Here we go. Question number one.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
The original Disneyland theme park is located in California. Where
else in the world would you find a Disneyland?

Speaker 8 (04:40):
Lady.

Speaker 5 (04:41):
Yes, Taylor.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Paris?

Speaker 5 (04:43):
Paris is correct on the money.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
We also would have accepted Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Florida.

Speaker 5 (04:52):
We move on to question two. According to Google, what.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Kind of flower is known as the most popular flower
type in the world?

Speaker 4 (05:01):
Matt.

Speaker 5 (05:03):
The daisy.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
No, not a daisy.

Speaker 5 (05:04):
Good guess. Taylor, you want to swoop?

Speaker 1 (05:08):
A rose? It is a rose. Well done.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
You're away and flying too to the ladies. You need
this one, Matt, to stay in it. Question number three.
Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Ladies.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
Taylor for the win.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Chapel Roan.

Speaker 5 (05:23):
She's got it. She's a lady.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Woo!

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Go off, Taylor. You're a Tradiverse Lady Champion. You get
$ 100 cash from Jobspace. Yay, thank you. And Matt, we'll
always remember you. You're the person who introduced us to
spit tag. Yeah, she is.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Very interesting fact.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Do you wear any form of, you know, you wear
like a mouth guard for rugby and stuff. Do you
wear any protection during spit tag? No, just purely just
underwear and nothing else.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
Just underwear.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
This game gets weirder and weirder. Surely you'd have a
face shield or something. Well, how are you going to
spit if you've got a face shield?

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Oh, true. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Maybe goggles, but... Imagine mixing.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
paintball and spit tag together.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
So there's a cool story today and I think this
is friendship goals. It's these two women who live in Auckland.
I think they work together. They both work in healthcare.
They've bought houses next door to each other. Love that. Yeah.
Brand new houses, townhouses. Neither of them were house hunting.

(06:31):
They didn't have houses, but I think they were like, yeah,
I'm saving for a house. I'm saving for a house too.
One of them took a wrong turn going to Briscoe's
and ended up going past this block of townhouses in
Mount Albert.

Speaker 5 (06:43):
I know the exact townhouses.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
And there were two for sale signs outside this new
block of townhouses. They're black ones, aren't they? Yes, they're
black ones.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
I walked past them, yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
There were two townhouses left. So she went to her friend.
You're not going to believe this. I've just found two
townhouses next to each other for sale. We should buy them.
And boom, they did it. And they bought a townhouse each.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
You know who would have sold them?

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Who?

Speaker 5 (07:04):
To them.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Who?

Speaker 5 (07:05):
You know, my friend Dan.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
Oh, yes.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Dan Lavender would have sold those houses to those besties.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh, my God. Dodgy Dan.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
God. Don't call him Dodgy Dan.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Oh, sorry.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
Only dodgy when he comes over to my house, runs
a bath, and then doesn't get out of the bath
for four hours.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
And when he helps himself to meals from your freezer.

Speaker 5 (07:23):
Yeah, he does that too, but, you know.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
And he dicks into the studio one time and said
that I've got a dad bod. So I'm off. I'm
actually off, Dan. But he's got double commission here, so
Dan's winning. They've done it right too because, you know, townhouses,
they touch each other.

Speaker 9 (07:41):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
There's a townhouse in between them. So they're neighbours, but
they're not neighbour-neighbours. It goes one house, some rando, the
other friend's house. Because sharing a wall, much like sharing
a house, is a good way to lose a friendship sometimes.
You know? Oh, that's so cute. Especially if you make
a noisy friend. and they don't have a noisy friend

(08:07):
or even a quiet friend, and then they begin to
resent you for your noisy friend, if you know what
we mean.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
I'm happy for them. That sounds awesome.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah, it's cool.

Speaker 5 (08:16):
Sounds so fun.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
I know, because that's instant community, isn't it? And you'll
be like, oh, wine's at mine? And you'll be like,
I'll be over in literally 15 seconds.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
How good.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
How bloody good.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
It's quite a new concept because there are people these
days buying houses with their friends.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
Because that's kind of a big thing now.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
And then staying in a flatting situation. Yeah. But you
all own the house and you are the landlords.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
I would rather a townhouse in the same block if
I could choose.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Rather than owning a house with a friend.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
So you're saying if you could have the choice of
having your own kitchen– And bathroom. Yeah. You'd have that. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
But I mean, it's all good.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
It's all good. I want to talk best friend purchases
this afternoon because that's quite an incredible one. And that's
got to be right up there. But did you and
your best friend go, how cool would it be if
we both bought, I don't know, the same car? Or
you said, how cool would it be if we bought,
I don't know, two dogs from the same litter? Two

(09:21):
horses from the same... Is it called a litter for horses?

Speaker 5 (09:25):
I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Same drop.

Speaker 5 (09:27):
I don't know if horses are having multiple in one go.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Are they not?

Speaker 5 (09:31):
I think so.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
I think it has happened. I don't know how horses work.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
But I think they're barely lucky to get one out.
Those things have hooves when they come out.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Can horses have twins?

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Like, I'm sure they can.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yes, horses can conceive twins, but carrying them to a
safe birth is very rare and extremely dangerous. Well, if
they did, you'd want to buy them. How often? How rare?
Because you want something rare, you go, yeah, these horses, twins.
And someone would go, that's so rare.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
How often have you heard of a horse giving birth
to twins?

Speaker 1 (10:04):
How often have I heard of horses giving birth? I've
only watched Clarkson's Farm. That's as far as I go
with agriculture.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Which they cover cows giving birth.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Ella, you watch a lot of birthing on your TikTok.
Have you ever watched a horse birth before?

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 9 (10:17):
It starts off with the hooves and then the farmers
film it and wait because you're not meant to intervene.
And then if things go south, they then glove up
and then.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Pull it out.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
My dad and the next-door neighbour used to intervene. I
used to be there for quite a few of the
births because my dad's next-door neighbour's.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
A cowboy, like an actual cowboy.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Half cow, half man.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
So they breed horses.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
I'm a cowboy.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
And so there'd be always bloody horses running around over there.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Oh, that kind of cowboy.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Remember the same one that did the at-home?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yes, we don't need to get into that.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Yeah, that's another one.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Okay, well, forget that I said horses then, okay? Forget
I said horses. Did you guys buy?

Speaker 5 (10:56):
The dogs is a good one.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Dogs is a good one. Did you buy matching sequined
suits that light up for rhythm and alps? And that's
low level.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Did you decide to date brothers from the same family?

Speaker 1 (11:09):
No, that's different.

Speaker 4 (11:09):
Why?

Speaker 1 (11:09):
These are purchases.

Speaker 5 (11:11):
Well, what if you.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (11:14):
You could have purchased them.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
No. Okay, yeah, fine. Okay. I feel like we got
let off track with the horses. We might not get
anything now. Two ladies have bought houses together next door
to each other. We want to know, did you buy
something with your best friend?

Speaker 7 (11:31):
That is Franklin.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Miley Cyrus. Excuse me, Miley Cyrus. On ZM with Brianne Clint,
new music bass persuades. We don't say the Cyrus anymore,
do we?

Speaker 5 (11:42):
No, she's dropped Cyrus.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
But I just did name Miley. You did.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
It's just Miley from now on.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Good. Remember it, okay? Yep. That's your one chance. We
want to know about your best friend purchases. Two best
friends are in the news today because they bought houses
next to each other. Town houses.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
I'm so jealous.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
One house buffer between them. Perfect.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
How fun.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Although if they were next to each other, you could
have a few wines and then go, we should take
this wall out. You know? There's a big risk of that.
Or at least you go in the backyard and you're like,
we should take this fence down. Yeah. I've talked to
my neighbours about taking the fence down. Yeah, why not?
Double the yards. Double the dogs.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
I'd be keen, especially because our neighbours have a pool.

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

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
I'd be like, are you sure you guys don't want
to take this fence down?

Speaker 1 (12:29):
So we asked you guys, did you have a best
friend purchase? Someone said, my mum and her sister married
my dad and his brother. No, that's not what we're
talking about. That's exactly what we're asking for. Best friend purchases.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
So your mum purchased her husband and then the sister
was like, oh, is there a two for one deal
from the same family?

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Boom. None of the people in that message purchased anything
or are friends.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
They're brothers and sisters. The sisters would be friends.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Not first. Sisters first, friends second.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Some people say that they're friends first, siblings second.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
We bought matching fluoro converse and outfits for a concert
back in 2016. Still have them for the memories.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
I wonder if they've ever worn the fluoro converse before.

Speaker 5 (13:17):
Again.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Again.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
Not to, you know, a concert.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
Someone said, I decided to buy a matching tattoo once
upon a time with my used-to-be bestie.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
She's no longer around.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Oh, no, you killed her.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
This happened. Oh, these two boys I went to school
with and they were thick as thieves.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
They were besties.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
And I remember seeing on social media, like not long
after we left school, like maybe five years, that they
went and got matching sleeve tattoos.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 5 (13:46):
Like a full arm sleeve, like matching.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
And when they'd put their arms, because one got their
right arm done and the other got their left, and
when they'd put their arms up against each other, it
made like a full picture.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Like a mad magazine fold-on.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
That's real beavers and butthead behaviour, isn't it?

Speaker 5 (14:02):
Anyway, they're not friends anymore.

Speaker 3 (14:03):
Nah.

Speaker 8 (14:05):
Nah.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
Should have just got the necklace.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Yeah. My best friend messaged me seeing what I was
up to that week. I said our family had just
purchased a puppy. Two hours later, her son and her
were driving with my daughter... and me to see the
litter of puppies and meet our new fur baby. Her
husband was not impressed with me as she bought one
on the spot too. Amazing.

Speaker 5 (14:30):
I love that.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
How good.

Speaker 5 (14:32):
Another text.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
I'm nine and me and my best friend bought matching
tops together.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Perfect.

Speaker 5 (14:38):
I'd love to know what the top's like.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
That person who got the best friend tattoo, they said
the tattoo is on my butt.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
Not their arm.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Well, at least, you know.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Did you and your bestie go and get your butts
out for tattoos together? That's fun.

Speaker 5 (14:52):
What was the tattoo? I need to know. And did you, like,
was it a matching?

Speaker 1 (14:56):
And if you pressed cheeks together.

Speaker 5 (14:57):
Did it make a full picture?

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Did it make a full picture?

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Like, did you, if you press your cheek with their cheek.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (15:04):
Is it like a, does it make like a full
new butt?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
You could have got a half butthole.

Speaker 9 (15:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
On the outside of your butt cheek. You join the buttholes.
And they got a half butthole on the outside of
their butt cheek.

Speaker 5 (15:13):
And so when you join them together.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
It makes three buttholes. That friendship's not.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Going to win.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
That's classy.

Speaker 8 (15:20):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
ZM's Brandon Clint.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Huge lotto win over the weekend. Did you get a ticket? Forgot.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Would you have got one? Probably. Yeah, right.

Speaker 5 (15:30):
Probably would have got one.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah, right, right, right, right, right, right. $ 28 million.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Because no one, people just kept not winning.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (15:37):
So it just kept going bigger and bigger and bigger.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Someone in Gisborne won it, $ 28 million, with a paper ticket.
further evidence to our theory that no one wins on
the app.

Speaker 5 (15:49):
Yeah, I believe it.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
I know that's true because I've never won on the app.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
Have you ever heard of anyone winning on the app?

Speaker 2 (15:54):
I haven't.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Nope.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
Yeah, no wobbledy wins on the app.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
I've never won on the app.

Speaker 5 (15:58):
I also don't trust, you.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
Know when it's like, oh.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Bonus ticket.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
No, not even the bonus ticket.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
You know when you get your ticket and you can
either pick your own numbers or what's the other one called?

Speaker 1 (16:08):
Lucky dip.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
Lucky dip and they give you the numbers?

Speaker 4 (16:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
I don't trust it.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
No, I don't trust that they haven't changed my numbers.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Yep. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:15):
I'm like, I don't trust, I trust that you'll.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I don't trust anyone.

Speaker 5 (16:18):
Yeah, you're giving me.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
The wrong numbers.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Except for the paper ticket. The paper ticket.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
I trust that. Take it home. Get Grandma to kiss it.
Sign your name on the back of it.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
That's the only thing I trust.

Speaker 5 (16:28):
It's the old analogue.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Anyway, it was a paper ticket in Gizzy. And they
took it into their local lotto store. to get it checked,
which is a nice thing to do rather than scanning
it on the app.

Speaker 5 (16:39):
So wait.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
You're telling me this person has this ticket. They don't
check it online. They go, oh, might as well go
in store.

Speaker 4 (16:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
They go into the store with their physical ticket.

Speaker 6 (16:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
They put it through the machine.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
And the person behind the counter goes.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
It's a winner.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
And then they go, oh, yay, what did I win?
Like bonus ticket or they go, you've won $ 28 million. Close.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
Close.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
It's close to open. Is that what happened? I think
the person checked their numbers, maybe via the TV or
the newspaper, old school. And then they rang the people
who own their lotto store who don't open on Sundays.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Right.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
And they said, you need to open the store. And
they said, why? And they said, trust me, you need
to open the store. And they did. They opened Grant
Bros on Gladstone Road in Gisborne. And they went in,
scanned the ticket, boom, $ 28. 25 million.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Oh, way to big note themselves. Way to make a
big song and dance about it. I'd be trying to
keep it under wraps.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Oh, well, don't you want to, maybe they go to
the shop every week and the person's like, good luck.

Speaker 5 (17:44):
No, that's awesome and lovely. But like, if that was me.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
None of you.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
Would ever know.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
You would think that I got hit by a car
over the weekend.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
You would be like to me, there'd be some, at
some point where you're like, oh, we should all come
to your house for drinks.

Speaker 5 (17:59):
And I'd be like, nah.

Speaker 4 (18:00):
No.

Speaker 5 (18:01):
You ain't coming to my house because I would have
bought a mansion.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Because you guys don't know my new address. Yeah, yeah.
I know what happens when someone scans a winning lotto ticket.
I've been there before. A friend of mine won first
division that I was flatting with.

Speaker 5 (18:14):
Yeah, I remember you told me this.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
And we went and scanned it at Foodtown. And did
I tell you what happens?

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Isn't that like.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah, and so because you scan it in a little
scanner machine and then the person who's serving other people's people,
their computer screen goes, stop what you're doing. Big winner,
big winner. And they can't serve again. They can't serve
anybody else. They have to put a sign up and
say we're closed. And then they come over and they
deal with you. This is real, by the way, and

(18:41):
deal with you and you only. And then instantly the
phone starts ringing inside the Lotto store and they pick
up the phone and they go, hello, it's Lotto here.

Speaker 5 (18:50):
What, like the FBI?

Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (18:53):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
And it says the computers have alerted us that you
have a first division winner in your store. And they go, Yeah,
I've got a first division winner. Yeah. And then there's
this paperwork for you to sign. And the paperwork's on
that paper where it makes copies. And so you fill
it out. To be fair, this is 2008. They might
have an iPad now.

Speaker 5 (19:09):
Yeah, it might be a bit more high tech.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But anyway, they rip it off.
You take a copy. A copy stays at the store.
And then they put a copy in the post.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
Is this why you're so, like, addicted?

Speaker 1 (19:21):
To Lotto?

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Could be. Actually quite foundational for me.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
I feel.

Speaker 5 (19:25):
I feel like this is where it all stems from.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
I've got it all mapped out. I know how it's
going to happen. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, the $ 28 million is
the biggest lotto win in Gizzy since 2024 when seven
friends split a million dollars.

Speaker 5 (19:41):
Oh, yuck.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
For 140 grand each.

Speaker 5 (19:43):
Oh, that's awful. I wonder if they're still besties.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
They did that on the app too.

Speaker 5 (19:50):
Did they?

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Yeah, see? If it was a paper ticket, you can
just get on the plane and leave.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Wait, so obviously they did it through one person's account.
That person could have told no one and just kept
that under wraps. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. God.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
God, some people are so honest.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Remind me to never go into a syndicate.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
With you.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
I was blown away by this on the weekend, but
a massive anniversary of the passing of Steve Irwin occurred
over the weekend, Dean.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Yes, it's been 20 years, can you believe?

Speaker 7 (20:28):
That is so wild.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
It felt.

Speaker 7 (20:30):
How old was Steve Irwin when he passed away?

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Robert Irwin was two years old.

Speaker 7 (20:34):
Steve Irwin.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
He was what, two?

Speaker 1 (20:51):
Robert Irwin was two years old.

Speaker 4 (20:52):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
Because Robert Irwin's only, you forget this, Robert Irwin's 22
right now. Yeah, he's young. So Steve was only 44
when he died. Oh, so young. On the 4th of
September 2006. Yeah, do you remember, it's one of those things, Dean,
it's like Princess Diana, it's like 9-11. Do you remember
where you were when you heard the news about Steve Irwin?

Speaker 3 (21:11):
I was also two, so I don't really recall.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Oh, yeah, I forget.

Speaker 5 (21:16):
Sorry, Dean's 22 as well.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. With the skin of a 16-year-old.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
I remember where I was. I remember how I felt.
It was, it just stopped the world, I feel like.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
And it's weird to think that Steve Irwin, if he
was alive now, would be 64. But he isn't. He's
frozen in time and he's sort of forever 44 or
32 or however old he is on the video that
you see of him on The Crocodile Hunter.

Speaker 4 (21:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Oh, there you go. That's the tea with Dean McCarthy.
We're back after this. The ZM Podcast Network.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
We've all heard of the podcast Call Her Daddy, right?
It might be the biggest podcast, one of the biggest
podcasts in the world.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Yeah, yeah. For sure.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
The host of that podcast is a woman named Alex Cooper.
She hosts the podcast. Although she started it with a
friend and then things went south and then she ended
up hosting it on her own.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
Anyway.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Have you heard anything about the beef she has with
influencer and content creator Alex Earle?

Speaker 1 (22:19):
No, not until you brought it up today.

Speaker 3 (22:21):
Which I've heard Georgia from the day show talking about
it because it was all kind of blowing up last
year in 2025. But over the weekend, Alex Earle, the influencer,
a reality show about her life.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
Dropped on Netflix.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
And so it's all starting to ramp up again. So
here's the brief overview. So Alex Cooper, who hosts Call
Her Daddy, started essentially like a podcast network. It was called–
I can't remember what it was called, but one of
the first hires they did was this.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
Influencer called Alex Earle.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
And they brought her onto the network and she had
a podcast with them. Then in 2025, that podcast was
dropped from the network. Okay.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
With no explanation.

Speaker 5 (23:10):
No explanation.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
No one really gave the full story, but people following
both of these women or even one of them since
there was bad blood.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right, okay.

Speaker 5 (23:21):
Like something wasn't right.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
People aren't dumb either.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
People aren't dumb.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Anyway, it was Alex Cooper, the host of Call Her Daddy.
She ended up posting a video to her TikTok calling
out the other Alex saying- You seem to be being shady,
but you're not saying anything. Why don't you say something?
You didn't sign an NDA.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
We got a piece of the clip here.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Alex Earl.

Speaker 7 (23:44):
Hey, girl.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
You're going to need to get specific and just say what.

Speaker 5 (23:48):
You got to say about me.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
There's no NDA. No one is stopping you. Stop hiding
behind other people and just say it yourself.

Speaker 5 (23:58):
What's the beef?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Oh, my God. She posted that.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
She posted that.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
That sounds like something you voice note to someone privately.

Speaker 9 (24:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
That you're at war with.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
It's almost she's like baiting her almost. Yeah. You know,
and at the time everyone was like, oh, we're finally
going to know what happened.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
When was that?

Speaker 5 (24:15):
That was around Coachella.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Oh, ages ago. Ages ago. Coachella last year.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Coachella last year.

Speaker 5 (24:22):
I believe so.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Yeah, and then everyone was waiting to hear back from
Alex Earle and she just never commented on it. She
said that she was going to and then just nothing. Anyway,
this Netflix show, Earl Meets World, has dropped. And in
the show, they address this beef between the two women.
And Alex Earl reads out a text she's going to

(24:46):
send to Alex Cooper privately.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (24:49):
But listen to the text.

Speaker 4 (24:51):
Read the text message.

Speaker 1 (24:51):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
I don't like you. I'm not going to fall for
your bait of getting into a back and forth online.
And I don't think you want that either. You are
manipulative and toxic. Go ahead and say it's just business
all you want. But the way you approach business is disgusting.
You choose money over morals. You took advantage of me
at a young age in a new industry I knew
nothing about. We had a call where you threatened me
to not go to war with you because you know
how sick and twisted you are. Go ahead, share this,
use it against me, but you will no longer scare

(25:14):
or trap me. You're right. I may be petty, but
I'm not malicious. If there's one thing I learned from
doing business with you, it's to never do business with
anyone like you.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
Good juice to save for your reality TV show.

Speaker 5 (25:26):
I mean, huge juice.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
It's like how Taylor saved the album release for her
husband's podcast. If you've got something good, don't just put
it on TikTok, man. Monetize that shit. What are you doing,
Alex Cooper? You should know.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
Anyway, the whole world is alight now because they've finally
gotten something from the Alex Earle camp as to what
went down.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
So what, all eyes on Alex Cooper? I can't believe
how invested in this I am now. All eyes on
Alex Cooper, is it? Well, I think so. Balls in
her court. Your move.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Essentially, Alex Earl has covered it thoroughly in this reality show,
and now people are waiting for, yeah, Alex Cooper's reply.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
So whose side are you on?

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Alex Earl's.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (26:11):
I feel like.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
I mean, look, and I'm someone who I'm not– I
just happened to watch the show over the weekend because
I was nap-trapped with my newborn.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
But the vibe I get is that Alex Cooper is
a little bit of a bully. And that's a big
thing to say, but that's the vibe you get from watching–
Is it.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Ellen DeGeneres all over again?

Speaker 5 (26:33):
It just seems like she's pretty ruthless.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Is it– who's that British guy who did all the
singing in the cars that they got rid of from Cats?

Speaker 5 (26:40):
James Corden.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Is it James Corden all over again?

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Might be.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Who knows?

Speaker 3 (26:45):
It could bring down Alex Cooper.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Wait, did he get fired for bullying or did he
get fired for cats? I think it was cats. That
was awful. Yeah, yeah. Bloody awful. Oh, well, watch this space.
It's ZM's Brie and Clint podcast. Ella Langley in Chusen, Texas.

Speaker 7 (27:02):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
On ZM with Brian Clint. That's what I was hoping
my kids would get me for Father's Day.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
What, Ella Langley?

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Oh, like a cameo from Ella Langley.

Speaker 5 (27:12):
I don't know if she's on cameo yet.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Hey, Clint. I hear you have one hell of a father.
Those girls are yours. They sure do love you. Anyway,
it's Ella. I love you too. It's all in my mind.
I've got it all there.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
It's crazy how much you sounded like her just then.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
You think I haven't practiced it?

Speaker 5 (27:33):
That's wild.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
You think I don't have conversations in the mirror with
Ella Langley?

Speaker 3 (27:37):
Uncanny.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
Yeah. It's how I motivate myself.

Speaker 5 (27:39):
God, that accent was spot on.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Like if I'm not feeling 100% confident, I just turn
to the mirror.

Speaker 5 (27:45):
What, and pretend you're Ella Langley?

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Yeah, guessing me up.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
Yep. Okay.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Try it.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Hey, I don't want to yuck your yum.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
You couldn't.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
Hopefully your wife hasn't walked in on that.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
Um....

Speaker 1 (27:57):
She wants nothing to do with it. Yeah, I bet.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
I bet. I'm sure.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
She's a smart woman.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
She doesn't factor into this at all.

Speaker 3 (28:04):
Yeah, no, I picked up on that. I picked up
on that in a big way. I came across this
TikTok where this woman was asking for dating advice, and
I thought this is actually really good knowledge for all
of us to have.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Not even in a dating sense, but I think even
in a sense of when you want to get to
know someone.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Right.

Speaker 5 (28:24):
And you want to.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
get to know them quickly. So essentially what she was
asking is.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Cut to the chase. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Essentially she was asking what is the one question you
would ask on a first date where you believe their
answer tells them, tells you everything you need to know
about them.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
I know what it is.

Speaker 5 (28:43):
You know what it is?

Speaker 3 (28:44):
If you have one of these, can you text us
on 9696? What is the question you would ask? Do
you have a question?

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (28:50):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Do you think we humans landed on the moon?

Speaker 5 (28:54):
It's a great question.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
You know, get it out of the way early.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
That's the exact vibe.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Yeah. Because whether you think it's a conspiracy or not
doesn't matter. Their reaction will tell you everything about this.

Speaker 5 (29:04):
Yep, 100%.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Do you want to hear what some of the comments were?

Speaker 4 (29:10):
Sure.

Speaker 5 (29:11):
Of the suggestions from people.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
So someone said, the question I would ask on a
first date, which would tell me everything I need to know.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
Is tell me about your mum. Oh, okay. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (29:23):
And it's how.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
They describe their mum and how they talk about her
that they believe tells them everything they need to know
about that person. Makes sense. Someone else said, my question
would be, if you won the lottery right now, what
would be the first thing you would do and why?
It shows people's priorities, baggage in their heart.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't. Why? It doesn't.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
I feel like we should ask Clint all of these
questions and just see.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
The lotto one doesn't, okay, because you may have a
purchase that you've been wanting for years and years and
years and years.

Speaker 3 (30:00):
It doesn't mean you're not charitable.

Speaker 5 (30:02):
I'll ask you.

Speaker 3 (30:04):
Clint, if you won the lottery right now, what's the first.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
Thing you would do? Build an orphanage.

Speaker 5 (30:11):
You don't believe that.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Build an animal shelter.

Speaker 5 (30:14):
Oh, that's so nice.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
And then park my brand new Audi RS6 in it.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Someone else said, I would ask if they believe in aliens.
I don't really care about the answer, but it's their
attitude when they respond.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
Same with the moon landings.

Speaker 3 (30:30):
Yeah, I need someone who can let me ask questions
and not make me feel dumb for asking.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
You could do the same thing with star signs. You
could say... Yes. You say, are you into star signs?

Speaker 4 (30:39):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
Because if there's a difference between... Oh, I'm not into that. Oh, no,
that's stupid shit.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
Or.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
It's not for me.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
It's not for me, but.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
But I understand why people like it. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:49):
And that's a great answer.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
I'm like, sweet.

Speaker 5 (30:50):
You don't have to be into it.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:52):
But it's their attitude.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
Also, red flag if you're dating some guy and then
he's like, absolutely, Taurus. Why do you think I chose you?

Speaker 4 (30:57):
Why?

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Because you don't want two star signed people in the
same relationship.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
What about someone else said, I would ask the question,
what's something you used to believe strongly that you don't anymore?
That's such an interesting question.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
Yeah, that's too deep for a first encounter.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
That's so deep. I'd have to really think about that.
Can you, anything off the top of your head that
you used to believe strongly?

Speaker 1 (31:24):
We're not there yet, you and I.

Speaker 5 (31:25):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
Some coming through on the text machine?

Speaker 4 (31:28):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Someone said, do you like cats? That's my leading question
every time. Because if you're a big cat person, you're
going to want to have a cat.

Speaker 3 (31:35):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 5 (31:36):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Someone said, do you have butter with your peanut butter?
I like that one. I'll ask you, do you have
butter with your peanut butter?

Speaker 3 (31:43):
No.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Do you not?

Speaker 5 (31:44):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
You know, I've stopped having butter recently.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
But only because I've increased the quality of my peanut butter.
So now.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
With a good peanut butter.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
You don't need butter.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
You don't need it.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
But if you're rocking a craft or an eater.

Speaker 5 (31:57):
You kind of need it.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
It needs lube.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, it does need a.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Little bit of moisture. It needs something in there.

Speaker 6 (32:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Someone said, I would ask, what brand is your fridge?

Speaker 4 (32:04):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
What are you getting from that one? There's multiple answers
too because they could give you the brand or they
could go, I don't know. Yeah. And that tells you
a lot about them too, doesn't it?

Speaker 5 (32:14):
God, this is blowing my mind.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
What's the relationship between your parents like and what was
your upbringing like? God, that's too deep.

Speaker 5 (32:24):
You know what is a great question to ask at
some point though?

Speaker 4 (32:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
Like just hearing how someone talks about their exes.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
How someone discusses or like what they say because they
can say, oh, look, my ex, great person, didn't work
out between us.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Because when Bree talks about her exes, she always goes, hot.
My exes, hot.

Speaker 5 (32:49):
My exes are pretty hot.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
And that's a nice way to talk about your ex.
They'd love to hear that.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
What's your favourite animal? And three deep reasons why. Shows
what they want their partner to be. Really? Oh, okay.
So you go, my favourite animal is hippopotamus because they
are strong, independent, and.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
They can float in water.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah, angry. Keep your questions coming through.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
These are good.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
We asked you what's the question you ask that tells
you everything you need to know about someone straight away.
Whether it's dating, you might be hiring someone.

Speaker 5 (33:32):
It shows a deeper.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
You might be about to pick them up as a hitchhiker.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Yeah, it just shows a deeper understanding of their personality.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Someone said, I'd ask what kind of car you drive.

Speaker 5 (33:45):
I don't know if that tells you that much.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Oh, yeah. Okay, yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
You know, like in terms of wanting to be with
them or like date them.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Yeah, probably superficial things. Someone said, I ask what petrol
station you go to. Some petrol stations give me huge
red flags immediately.

Speaker 5 (34:04):
Which ones?

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Which ones?

Speaker 5 (34:05):
I want to know.

Speaker 4 (34:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (34:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
Someone said, I asked the question, if you're putting something
on toast, you put it on the left side or
the right side?

Speaker 1 (34:15):
Of the toast.

Speaker 5 (34:16):
You put it on both.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
You put it in the middle of the toast, don't you?

Speaker 5 (34:19):
Oh, no, I go from one side to the other.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Do you?

Speaker 5 (34:24):
I think so, or top to bottom.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Oh, I'll go for 100% coverage.

Speaker 3 (34:28):
I don't think that tells you much about someone's personality, though.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Maybe it does, and we don't know, and we've just
revealed quite a lot about themselves. See, we talked about
being judgmental before, and someone said, my question that I
ask that tells me everything I need to know about
a woman I'm on a first date with is, do
you watch Shortland Street? If they answer yes, then it
doesn't go anywhere past the first date.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
I feel like that's quite judgmental. Like, what's wrong with
Shortland Street?

Speaker 1 (34:54):
What did Shortland Street ever do to you? Did your
mum love Shortland Street more than she loved you?

Speaker 5 (35:00):
Is that the strangler texting him?

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Is that Lionel?

Speaker 5 (35:03):
Could be.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Have we got Lionel Skiggins?

Speaker 3 (35:07):
Someone said, I've always asked the question, have you ever
cheated on a partner?

Speaker 1 (35:11):
Yeah, well, to be honest, cut to the chase, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (35:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:17):
Bree and Clint's Small Town Big Deal. Welcome along to
another edition of Small Town Big Deal, where we see
who is the bigger deal from their small town. And
this week, it's your turn, mate.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
A rare fail for you last week.

Speaker 5 (35:31):
I've had a couple in.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
A row now, so it's rocked my confidence.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
I think we caught a real estate agent last week
in Stanthorpe. No idea who that was.

Speaker 4 (35:40):
No idea.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Never heard of you. Not a clue. No.

Speaker 3 (35:42):
It's your turn this week to call someone from your
humble town of Rotorua, where you grew up, and I
thought we could call a higher pool equipment hire company.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Oh, God.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
You know, like you're big into the landscaping these days.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
I need to find out where my friends work and
just like slowly start seeding those ideas to you. But yeah, okay,
that's cool.

Speaker 5 (36:03):
You don't reckon a friend of yours works here?

Speaker 1 (36:04):
No, not last time I checked.

Speaker 5 (36:06):
Well, you better hope that they've heard.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
Of you then.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Welcome to High Fall. You're speaking with Mark.

Speaker 6 (36:14):
Hi, Mark.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Hey, mate, quick question for you. My name's Bree, and
I was just wondering, have you ever heard of a
bloke called Clint Roberts?

Speaker 5 (36:22):
Ooh.

Speaker 7 (36:28):
Let me just bring his name up.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Why is that?

Speaker 3 (36:33):
It's just a bit of a bet my friend and
I have going and we just needed to see. He
thinks that he's a big deal and people have heard
of him and I said, what a load of crap.
I don't reckon anyone's heard of you. So you're a
bit of a test for us, Mark. Has he ever
done the dodgy there at the high pool equipment hire?

Speaker 5 (36:55):
Maybe not bought back a.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Good local lad went to John Paul College.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
A leaf blower.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
You know.

Speaker 7 (37:02):
Don't ring a bell.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
And Mark really tried for you.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Mark.

Speaker 5 (37:08):
He really tried.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
Hey, Mark, it's Bree here from Bree and Clint on
the ZM radio show.

Speaker 4 (37:13):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
Have you heard of her, Mark? I haven't heard of either, obviously. Nah,
bloody good.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
I'm glad we got that in there at the end.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
What station you got on at Hyerpool?

Speaker 3 (37:25):
We don't have much music here, I'm afraid, mate. We're
too busy working.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah, exactly. Well, we'll let you get back to it.
Thank you very much.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Appreciate your time, Mark.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
All right. See you. I think I went to high
school with him. You could have.

Speaker 5 (37:37):
And you still didn't remember.

Speaker 3 (37:38):
All right.

Speaker 4 (37:40):
All right.

Speaker 5 (37:41):
Another X to your name.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
All right. See you guys later.

Speaker 3 (37:44):
ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

Speaker 5 (37:46):
How about them bloody wahs?

Speaker 1 (37:48):
I'm the wahs.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
I'll tell you what, I was on the edge of
my seat on the weekend. You caught the game, didn't you?

Speaker 4 (37:56):
I did.

Speaker 3 (37:56):
Which, I mean, the game didn't really mean all that
much in terms of points and where we are on
the table and finals footy.

Speaker 5 (38:04):
But, God, it went down to the wire.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
Tell my children that. I planned dinner around us watching
the Warriors because my wife was out with friends, so
I said, oh, dad dinner. We'll get takeaways and watch
the Warriors. Have takeaways in front of the TV.

Speaker 5 (38:18):
How bloody good.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Watch the Warriors. And they went, yeah, yeah, yeah. And
then I went and got the pizza, got back in
time for the five o'clock kickoff, set it down in
front of the TV.

Speaker 6 (38:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
And Maggie goes, can we watch Spongebob instead? I was like, no.
But watching. It's not takeaways and Spongebob. It was. That's
not an occasion. You don't.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
You.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Sit through the Warriors so you get takeaways.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
Yeah, I know you don't give two craps about this.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
Not yet.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Not yet.

Speaker 5 (38:43):
Not yet.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
I mean, it did kind of matter in terms of
the minor premiership, but.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
We don't give a crap about the premiership. We don't care.
We're in the finals.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
We want the premiership. That's what we want. And, I mean,
it came down to the wire. They won by one point.
It was a fantastic game. Loved every second of it.
I saw this article doing the round that's getting recirculated
on stuff where– Quite an interesting question, and they've polled
the people of New Zealand, and it involves the Warriors,

(39:14):
but the question also involves the All Blacks, and I
think you know where this is going. And the question was,
would you rather see the All Blacks win the 2027
Rugby World Cup, or would you rather see the Warriors
finally win their first NRL premiership?

Speaker 1 (39:30):
If you could only have one.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
You can only have one.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
Which is a stupid question because we can have both.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Like you can, but it's an interesting question to put
to the people.

Speaker 5 (39:40):
Of New Zealand to see.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
I don't know where people are at and what they
would truly rather see in 2026. I mean, the Rugby
World Cup is next year. But do you want to,
what do you think the results would have been?

Speaker 1 (39:53):
I think it will lean in favour of the Warriors
on this poll. And my theory for that is a
couple of reasons, but it's the thing that's right in
front of us right now. The World Cup is some,
that's next year. That's next year's problem. The Warriors, they
could win the NRL in four weeks.

Speaker 5 (40:09):
Yeah, it's right here, right now.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
So I reckon 60, 40 Warriors on this poll.

Speaker 3 (40:14):
It's 53 Warriors, 47 All Blacks.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
So it was very, very tight. That's better.

Speaker 5 (40:19):
Very close.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
So here's my question to you, Clint Roberts. You can
only have one. Are you picking the All Blacks to
win the 2027 Rugby World Cup or the Warriors to
finally win their first NRL Premiership?

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Oh, it's so hard. If choosing one meant you couldn't
have the other.

Speaker 5 (40:35):
You had to pick one. Answer it honestly.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
I know.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
What does your deep down in your gut say?

Speaker 1 (40:44):
I know people think they want the Warriors, but the
All Blacks, the All Blacks, the All Blacks affects more people.
What do you mean? Well, the All Blacks are our
national team. The Warriors.

Speaker 5 (40:59):
Are our national team.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
No, they're, oh, yeah, they.

Speaker 4 (41:03):
Are.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (41:04):
They're the only Kiwi team.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't want to choose. I don't
want to choose. You have to pick. I don't want
to choose.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
That's the question.

Speaker 5 (41:12):
That's the game.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
This year?

Speaker 1 (41:16):
Is it this year? Win it this year? Win it
this year.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
Or, which means the All Blacks will lose the Rugby
World Cup next year if you choose the Warriors to
win this year.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
Both.

Speaker 5 (41:30):
So let me give you a bit more context.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
So the All.

Speaker 3 (41:33):
Blacks have won the Rugby World Cup three times.

Speaker 5 (41:36):
They won 1987, 2011 and 2015.

Speaker 3 (41:37):
So by the time the... Should have won in 2023
as well. By the time the Rugby World Cup rolls
around next year, It would have been 12 years since
they last won the title.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
The Warriors have been in two grand finals and they've
lost both of those.

Speaker 7 (41:56):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 (41:57):
They lost to the Sydney Roosters in 2002 and then
Manly again in 2011.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 5 (42:02):
So they've never won the trophy.

Speaker 8 (42:04):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
If that helps you make your decision. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (42:08):
So I guess we're being fair.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
No, no, no.

Speaker 3 (42:10):
It's not about being fair.

Speaker 1 (42:11):
That's what you're trying to do. You're saying the Warriors
deserve one. They haven't had one.

Speaker 3 (42:15):
No, but I also was giving the context that it's
been a long time since the All Blacks have won
a Rugby World Cup.

Speaker 5 (42:22):
I mean, it's not a hard question.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
For me because I'm not into rugby unions.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
You're disrespectful to rugby unions.

Speaker 5 (42:28):
I'm not disrespectful.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
You are. You don't honour its place in our history.

Speaker 3 (42:31):
I just am a bigger WARS fan than you.

Speaker 1 (42:33):
No, that's not true either. Well, okay, who are you picking?
We went to watch your team win the grand final
last year, okay? You can't have my team as well.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
Well, I want to watch my other team win this year,
and that's the WARS.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Yeah, me too.

Speaker 5 (42:44):
Is that what you're picking?

Speaker 1 (42:45):
Yeah, I'm picking Warriors.

Speaker 4 (42:46):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
I know you don't believe it. I hate this. I
hate this conversation because it's like picking your children. Which
one of your daughters do you love more? I'm voting.
I'm choosing Warriors. Okay.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
You sure?

Speaker 1 (43:00):
I'm choosing Warriors.

Speaker 5 (43:02):
You happy with that decision?

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
And if they lose, I'm picking All Blacks. It's like
we've tortured you or something.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
See, this is.

Speaker 1 (43:12):
Why I didn't want to pick before.

Speaker 2 (43:14):
You heard me first.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Because I picked.

Speaker 3 (43:18):
Brilliant Clint, 1,000% will back the Warriors for a premiership
rather than the All Blacks winning the Rugby World Cup
next year.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
So you forced me into a decision. First text that
comes through, Traitor Clint, All Blacks. There's a few.

Speaker 3 (43:34):
Quite a lot of support for the Warriors on the
text machine, I will say. But you could be right
in the sense of like it's right here in front
of us right now. That was an interesting text where
someone said, the Warriors for sure, the Warriors bring in
so much money into the local economy and pride to.

Speaker 5 (43:49):
The community, which is nice.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
Yeah, so did the All Blacks.

Speaker 5 (43:53):
They say the All Blacks not so much.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
No, they do.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
That's what the text said.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
Yeah, they do.

Speaker 1 (43:58):
What does 55,000 people at Eden Park do to the
local economy?

Speaker 3 (44:01):
Oh, look, here come the All Blacks fans now. This
is what they're texting through now.

Speaker 1 (44:05):
See?

Speaker 5 (44:06):
Text us on 9696.

Speaker 3 (44:07):
Genuinely, would you rather see the Warriors win their first
premiership or the All Blacks take out the Rugby World
Cup next year? What would you rather if you can
only pick one?

Speaker 1 (44:17):
Which, again, we can have both. Yes, but it's fun
to just like.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
We can have both.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
I don't enjoy this putting rugby league against rugby union thing,
you know? Oh, mate, it's not. We can only have
one sport.

Speaker 5 (44:29):
Jeez, mate, it's not that deep. Calm down.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
You calm down. No, you calm down.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
Look, look, he's got a bee in his bonnet now.

Speaker 9 (44:39):
Look.

Speaker 3 (44:40):
Yeah, I feel like it's 50-50. Oh, and let's not
pit the sports against each other.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Can't we all be friends?

Speaker 3 (44:50):
Zed In's Brain Cleanse.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Micro-ics. We've talked about ics before and the things that
put you off people, and we've talked about the fact
that you can't choose when you get the ic. You
can't undo an ic either. And you can't undo it.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
Once you've got the ic, it's all over, Red Rover.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
It's all over. And the worst one to get is
an ic once you're already married to the person.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
Remember when producer Ella Genzetta tried to tell us that
you can get over ics?

Speaker 5 (45:16):
And we were like, well, it's not an ic then.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
Yeah, no, that's not an ic.

Speaker 5 (45:19):
It's not getting the ic.

Speaker 4 (45:20):
No. No.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
The ick is when your view of the person changes.
The ick sticks. It's the thing that happens that makes
you think about them differently.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
Look, she still thinks that.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
I still think it.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
Like, okay, my husband, love him dearly.

Speaker 3 (45:32):
He's everything and everything. He crosses his legs. But I
can get over it.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Heaven forbid.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
Why are you with him?

Speaker 7 (45:39):
It's icky.

Speaker 8 (45:41):
But I love him so much I can look past it.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
That's not getting the ick. That's not it.

Speaker 5 (45:45):
That's not getting the ick.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 9 (45:47):
Okay, I did go on a date with this other
guy and he talked about politics. I got the ick
from that.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
No, that's not the ick either. That's just a red flag.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
The ick is a feeling.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
The ick is a feeling you get. It's so hard
to describe, but it's this feeling that comes over you
where your whole view and vibe.

Speaker 5 (46:06):
Changes with someone.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
And I believe you have to be.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
And they make you feel yuck.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
I think to get the ick, you have to have
been attracted to them first.

Speaker 9 (46:13):
100%.

Speaker 1 (46:13):
Because the ick is the change.

Speaker 4 (46:15):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (46:15):
And it's the inability to be attracted to them again.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
And once you go and get the ick, you can't
go back.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
So don't go.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
On the radio saying that your husband gave you the ick.
He didn't.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (46:25):
Nice.

Speaker 5 (46:26):
It's a different thing.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
Oh, I see what you're saying.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
Good call.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
Five more days and I don't want to stuff it up.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
So these are not big X. These are micro X. Okay. Okay.
They're much more niche. Micro X.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
ICK.

Speaker 3 (46:38):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (46:38):
Micro ICKs. Yep. Got it. From the list, from the comments,
a micro X. And you can tell me whether these
are micro X or full blown X.

Speaker 3 (46:47):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
I found out that he followed Instagram on Instagram.

Speaker 3 (46:51):
Nah, that's funny.

Speaker 9 (46:54):
Is it?

Speaker 5 (46:54):
That's a micro ick.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
That's not a real ick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He screamed
when the DJ said, make some noise.

Speaker 5 (47:01):
I kind of love that.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
What would the scream sound like though?

Speaker 8 (47:06):
Ready?

Speaker 1 (47:06):
I'll be the DJ. No, I'm not doing it. I'm
not falling for that. No, you have to do it. No,
I'm the DJ. I'm the DJ. No, I'm the DJ
because I'm the DJ.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
No, because it's a guy doing it. So we need
to see what it sounds like.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
Are you ready?

Speaker 3 (47:19):
Hey, everyone, make some noise.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (47:23):
Oh, I see what they mean.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
Yeah. You can't make love to that person after that.
You can't.

Speaker 5 (47:31):
I think it was just your face.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
It was just like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
Whoop, whoop. There's a micro-ix that says he would use
baby voice when he woke up and he would send
me a good morning voice message like, good morning, baby.

Speaker 3 (47:52):
Nah, that's a real ick.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
That's a full-blown ick. It ruined my day every day.

Speaker 5 (47:57):
That's so, yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:59):
A micro-ix. Someone said, maybe I'm overreacting, but the guy
I was seeing had a phone wallet flip case.

Speaker 5 (48:08):
That's definitely a micro-ick.

Speaker 1 (48:09):
Was he 64? On the borderline.

Speaker 5 (48:11):
On the borderline.

Speaker 3 (48:12):
If it's real grubby, you know how a lot of
the time a flip case is quite grubby?

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Also, when you talk on the phone and I can
see all of your F-plus cards.

Speaker 5 (48:20):
And it's flapping around.

Speaker 1 (48:24):
Shout out to my mum, queen of the wallet flip case.

Speaker 5 (48:26):
My mum has one too, don't worry.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
We've all got them, making them from the same place.

Speaker 1 (48:31):
Micro-icks. He held his fork with a closed fist. What,
like Shrek? No, no, that's not.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
Yeah, that's definitely a micro-eck.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
These are micro-ecks. Someone said he had a picture of
himself on his lock screen.

Speaker 5 (48:47):
I feel like that could be a full-blown.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
I'm on my lock screen, but my kids are in there.
Do I get away with it?

Speaker 5 (48:57):
Way to get yourself in there. Make it okay.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
He used to send me a cap cut edits of himself.

Speaker 5 (49:06):
Of himself doing what?

Speaker 1 (49:07):
Nah, that's a full ick.

Speaker 5 (49:08):
That's a full ick.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Of him doing what? That's such a good question. Doing what?

Speaker 5 (49:12):
Like his gym session? What's he cap cutting and sending
to you?

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Also, why is he editing the video that he's sending you?
like if i need to see a video just send
it to me yeah uh micro x on his birthday
he screenshotted all of his birthday messages and posted them
on his instagram story thanking everyone.

Speaker 4 (49:36):
Oh. Oh.

Speaker 3 (49:38):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
Micro ick. He texted me, so we instead of sorry. S-O-W-W-I-E.

Speaker 5 (49:48):
So we.

Speaker 1 (49:49):
So we.

Speaker 3 (49:49):
Well, it's kind of like baby voice, but in text form.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
Micro icks. He used to say hashtag in real life.
Like if he'd had a long day at work, he
would say hashtag tired. I feel like.

Speaker 3 (50:00):
Ella does that. Oh, hashtag not listening, were you?

Speaker 1 (50:07):
No, I was.

Speaker 2 (50:07):
Were you hashtag dizzy? I do do that.

Speaker 1 (50:10):
Were you hashtag distracted?

Speaker 3 (50:12):
No, Ella's latest thing.

Speaker 5 (50:13):
Oh, don't say it.

Speaker 3 (50:14):
That is a bit of a micro-ick for me is
that she's using the word, have you noticed this? Like
you'll say something and then she'll go, swag. Swag.

Speaker 4 (50:23):
Swag.

Speaker 2 (50:24):
I'm bringing it back, okay? But I did feel icky
when I said it to management. I was like.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Did you swag management?

Speaker 3 (50:30):
Did you swag on management?

Speaker 8 (50:33):
I just was agreeing with them.

Speaker 3 (50:34):
Yes, swag.

Speaker 1 (50:35):
Hashtag swag.

Speaker 3 (50:36):
What about when someone says a micro-egg for me when
someone says, oh, expresso?

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Espresso, yeah. Espresso martini. Micro-eggs. He used the sentence, well,
as an alpha man.

Speaker 4 (50:46):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (50:48):
Oh, no.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
He had an AI picture of himself as Batman as
his lock screen.

Speaker 4 (50:53):
Oh!

Speaker 1 (50:54):
He wore Roman sandals.

Speaker 3 (50:57):
Nah, men can have Birkenstocks too, everyone.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
And the final micro-ick that I have for you is
he stamped near a pigeon and the pigeon didn't move. Damn,
even the birds don't respect.

Speaker 4 (51:12):
Him.

Speaker 8 (51:12):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
Oh, $ 800 at M or text them to 9696. Can
you do it, guys? We're not looking for icks. That's
just a micro-ick. We're looking for micro-icks. It was so small.
And even in your mind, you're like, I can't believe
it was that thing that turned me off, that person.
But it did.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Oh, you're saying that the micro-ick turned into full-blown having
the ick?

Speaker 1 (51:33):
The micro-ick, yeah. It's a tiny thing.

Speaker 4 (51:35):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
It's a tiny thing.

Speaker 3 (51:36):
It's like that guy I dated whose knees hyperextended.

Speaker 1 (51:39):
Yeah, that's exactly what it is.

Speaker 5 (51:41):
And it freaked me out.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Brie left a guy because he had hyperextending knees.

Speaker 7 (51:44):
Shut up!

Speaker 1 (51:45):
You did!

Speaker 9 (51:45):
Shut up!

Speaker 5 (51:47):
Makes me sound horrible.

Speaker 1 (51:48):
You said he stood like the aliens at the coffee
machine on Men in Black.

Speaker 5 (51:52):
There was already other problems.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
We're talking micro-ics, not full-blown ics, micro-ics, okay? The tiny
little thing. And you're right, it's got two ways to
interpret that, doesn't it? It didn't quite give you the
full ick, it's a micro-ick, or the action was so
microscopic you didn't understand that it could give you the ick. Yeah.
And yet it still did. It could be one or
the other. It could be one or the other. Let's

(52:15):
go to the phones where Karen is standing by with
a micro ick. Hi, Karen.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
Hi, Karen.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
Hi there.

Speaker 7 (52:20):
How are you going?

Speaker 3 (52:21):
Good, thanks.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
Did you experience this micro ick firsthand?

Speaker 7 (52:25):
Oh, yes, I certainly did. So back in the day,
I was dating a guy and he couldn't, I didn't
realize it for a start, but then the more I
got to know him, he couldn't say words properly.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Okay.

Speaker 7 (52:38):
So he would say things like woe.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
Wobe for what?

Speaker 7 (52:44):
For Robe.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
Robe, okay.

Speaker 5 (52:45):
Can you call it a wobe?

Speaker 8 (52:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (52:47):
Or would say things like, instead of saying specific, would
always be asked more specifically. And as time went on.

Speaker 6 (52:54):
It got more and more annoying.

Speaker 7 (52:56):
And then I would see him saying it, and there'd
be like little spittle drops coming out of his mouth.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
Oh, no, that's the ick. Once you start noticing the
saliva leaving their mouth, you've got the ick.

Speaker 3 (53:06):
Karen, I hate to tell you this, and I don't
know if you were in the market, but because of that,
you can never date my mother. My mum loves to...
It's not like completely mispronounced words. She just slightly mispronounces words.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
And that's what it is, isn't it, Karen?

Speaker 7 (53:25):
My father asked me what it was like dating Daffy Duck. So,
you know.

Speaker 1 (53:31):
Even your dad was in on it, Karen. That relationship
didn't stand a chance. Amy's here. Hi, Amy.

Speaker 5 (53:38):
Hi, Amy.

Speaker 4 (53:39):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
Your daughter got a micro-ick.

Speaker 6 (53:42):
Yeah, she's going to kill me when I get home.

Speaker 3 (53:43):
Go on, tell us.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
What was it?

Speaker 6 (53:45):
All right, so she rings me up and she's like, Mom,
I've got the ick. And I was like, no, what
did he do? And she's like, I walked into the
room and he had his foot up to his ear
going ring, ring. And then passed her his foot and said, oh,
it's for you.

Speaker 7 (54:02):
She was like, oh, Mama.

Speaker 6 (54:04):
So I was like, when are you moving in, darling?

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Your daughter's boyfriend took a call on the phone, Amy.
It's kind of impressive. Is it not kind of impressive
that he can get his foot up to his ear?

Speaker 7 (54:19):
I think that's an ick as well.

Speaker 3 (54:21):
Yeah, I think that's part of it.

Speaker 5 (54:22):
I think that's the main problem.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
Flexibility is an ick. This is good. I'm writing all
of this down, Amy, by the way. It's good information.
On your do not do list, I hope. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no,
I want to stay married. I love how much joy
that brought you, Amy, as well.

Speaker 3 (54:36):
Oh, my Lord. Amy's like, I get it. I'll be
over to pick you.

Speaker 5 (54:40):
Up in a minute.

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Micro-ics. My husband full-on licks his plate. Oh, no.

Speaker 4 (54:46):
Sometimes.

Speaker 5 (54:46):
What about this one? It says micro-ic.

Speaker 3 (54:49):
Boyfriend at the time walked in the door and said, oh,
you got a haircut, and then went to the hallway
and checked himself in the mirror, running his hands through it,
and it just kind of made me feel weird looking
at him preening himself. Major ick, though. He dumped me
one hour later. Who books a haircut before dumping someone?

(55:10):
That's a wild story.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
Who comes home from a haircut to dump someone? Maybe
he just could sense your ick and he was getting
ahead of it. Micro icks. My partner puts his socks
on first after the shower, then his undies, then gets dressed.

Speaker 5 (55:25):
That's psychopath stuff.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
So he's just this whole naked man with socks on.

Speaker 3 (55:29):
I reckon if I saw anyone, absolutely anyone in socks
and shoes and nothing else, I reckon I would get
the ick.

Speaker 5 (55:38):
It doesn't matter who that person was.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:40):
Like if that person was the hottest person ever, if
I saw them in that.

Speaker 1 (55:44):
I agree with you. I don't know why it is.
I don't know why it is either.

Speaker 5 (55:47):
This one's pretty good.

Speaker 7 (55:48):
It says.

Speaker 3 (55:49):
The ick that I got was I saw him cry
at a gig that I was performing at because the
song reminded him of his dog that had died when
he was 10. The song was Chasing Cars, by the way.
How old was he?

Speaker 5 (56:06):
Like, if he's crying about a dog, he had one.

Speaker 4 (56:09):
At your gag.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
Yeah. Yeah. That he had when he was 10. Micro-icks.
I saw him curl his toes whenever he ate anything.

Speaker 3 (56:17):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (56:18):
Oh, yummy. My ex spelt cool, K-E-W-L, every time. Oh, no.
He would smell the spoon after he licked it. Oh, what?

Speaker 2 (56:31):
That's weird.

Speaker 1 (56:33):
Micro X, he broke his ribs and then flinched if
anyone would step near him. Oh, come on. The guy's
got broken ribs.

Speaker 3 (56:42):
Someone said micro-ick when they say lol after a joke
or generally anything.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
This is relatable too, and I wonder if your partner
got this, Bree. It says, my wife's eight months pregnant,
and she has a new micro-ick of me every day.
Totals probably about 30 micro-icks just from me sitting near her.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
Yeah, I wonder.

Speaker 5 (57:03):
I wonder. I feel like definitely.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
You reach the stage of pregnancy where breathing gives you
the ick.

Speaker 5 (57:08):
Uh-huh.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
You reach that stage of marriage as well, actually.

Speaker 4 (57:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (57:11):
Yeah, don't even look in my direction.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
My husband puts his hand on his chest when he's
passing people in his car.

Speaker 7 (57:18):
Why?

Speaker 1 (57:20):
Oh, Lord.

Speaker 3 (57:20):
My micro-ick was an ex who used to say pumpkin
instead of pumpkin.

Speaker 1 (57:28):
My micro-ick. He slept with his arms crossed like a vampire.

Speaker 5 (57:33):
That's buzzy.

Speaker 1 (57:35):
That's bizarre.

Speaker 5 (57:36):
That's so buzzy.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
The ZM Podcast Network. We were talking micro-icks before. Someone
texted one in, Grace, and she said, my micro-ick is
people who are into rock climbing and wear those little
harnesses that makes a triangle around their crotch.

Speaker 5 (57:52):
You know what does give me the ick?

Speaker 3 (57:54):
Is there's, right near my house, there's this, I would
call it, I would say it's no higher than, Five metres.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 3 (58:03):
And it's like natural rock.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Oh, okay, yeah.

Speaker 3 (58:06):
It's just a tiny bit, like a little bit.

Speaker 1 (58:09):
A rock wall.

Speaker 5 (58:09):
Like a rock wall.

Speaker 3 (58:10):
Like you could easily, you know, get to the top
quite easily without a harness.

Speaker 8 (58:16):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 5 (58:17):
But I see people, like it's a thing.

Speaker 1 (58:20):
Harnessed up.

Speaker 3 (58:21):
Where people go down to this tiny little rock formation.
It's on a main road. Yeah. And they're climbing not
even five metres.

Speaker 4 (58:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
I'm like. Have some self-respect. Do what Bree does and
do your harness stuff behind closed doors.

Speaker 5 (58:36):
Yeah, build it in your house.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is
a birthday banger.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
Let's do your birthday bangers. Number one songs when you
turn 16. We'll do three and we'll play one.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
Emily's here. Hi, Emily.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Hi, Emily.

Speaker 7 (58:50):
Hi, how you doing?

Speaker 1 (58:52):
Good.

Speaker 5 (58:52):
How was your day?

Speaker 3 (58:54):
Oh, you know, Monday, I guess. But it's my first
time calling.

Speaker 4 (59:00):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
Wait, and? And?

Speaker 3 (59:04):
Long time.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
I don't know. I don't know. You can have a.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (59:12):
She's like, nah, it's just my first time calling.

Speaker 5 (59:15):
I haven't listened at all.

Speaker 3 (59:16):
Hey, we're glad you're here, Emily.

Speaker 5 (59:19):
What is your birthday?

Speaker 7 (59:21):
It is 11th of September, 1995.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Oh, that's this.

Speaker 5 (59:24):
Friday, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (59:26):
Yeah. You're born on September 11th. I am. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (59:31):
Apologies.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
Well, no, she came first.

Speaker 3 (59:35):
Yeah, I know, but apologies that she ended up with
a crappy birthday.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
We don't have to say sorry for that. It's not
her fault.

Speaker 3 (59:40):
Sorry for your loss, Emily. You were 16, though, in 2011.

Speaker 5 (59:44):
Here's your birthday banner.

Speaker 1 (59:48):
Oh, sorry for that.

Speaker 5 (59:50):
Again, sorry for your loss.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
Isn't it crazy how massive this song was? And then overnight,
the world turned on it. We were like, I never
want to hear this song again. People were like, yuck.
I never want to hear Gautier again.

Speaker 3 (01:00:04):
And we didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:00:06):
Kind of like that Dance Monkey song.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
And now we have Dochi.

Speaker 7 (01:00:10):
Dang, you're great.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Yeah, that's, hey, Emily, that is correct.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
All right, happy birthday for Friday. Wait there, you could
be our winner. Probably not, though. Lynn's going to do
a birthday banger. G'day, Lynn. Hi, Lynn.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
Hello.

Speaker 5 (01:00:24):
What was the best? First time listener, first time caller.

Speaker 4 (01:00:25):
Oh, blimey.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
It's back-to-back time.

Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
Go, Lynn.

Speaker 1 (01:00:27):
Go, Lynn.

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Go, Lynn.

Speaker 3 (01:00:33):
God, we haven't had a back-to-back in a while. Lynne,
we're hoping for a good birthday banger for you, mate.
What is your birthday? It's going to be good, I'm sure.
It's 18th of November, 1986. Oh, yeah. That means, Lynne,
you were 16 in 2002.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
You're also the youngest Lynne we've ever met, Lynne.

Speaker 4 (01:00:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
Yeah, there's not many of us around.

Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
No, you're a dying brunch.

Speaker 5 (01:00:56):
Yeah, most of them are great.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
Or new.

Speaker 5 (01:01:00):
Exactly, one or the other.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
Here's your birthday banger.

Speaker 3 (01:01:06):
Oh, Lynne. It's a ripper.

Speaker 1 (01:01:10):
It's good. It's very good.

Speaker 5 (01:01:13):
It's an absolute beauty.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
Silly question, but you're into it, aren't you, Lynne?

Speaker 4 (01:01:19):
Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
There's a banger. Yeah, okay, good. Wait there.

Speaker 5 (01:01:23):
She loves to get down and dirty.

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):
Our Lynne. Here's Bonnie. Hey, Bonnie.

Speaker 2 (01:01:26):
Hi, Bonnie.

Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
Hi, how are you?

Speaker 1 (01:01:29):
Good.

Speaker 5 (01:01:29):
What have you been doing today, Bonnie?

Speaker 7 (01:01:31):
Oh, nothing much, just on the farm.

Speaker 5 (01:01:34):
On the farm, did you say?

Speaker 4 (01:01:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:01:37):
What kind of farm are you on?

Speaker 6 (01:01:39):
A dairy farm.

Speaker 3 (01:01:40):
So many dairy farms in New Zealand, isn't there?

Speaker 5 (01:01:45):
Yeah. I would have said there was more sheep farms.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Oh, okay. No, not these days.

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:01:50):
What is your birthday, Bonnie?

Speaker 7 (01:01:51):
24th of May, 2016.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
2007, I think she said, which means you were 16, Bonnie,
in 2023.

Speaker 5 (01:02:01):
Not good reception out on those bloody farms, is there?

Speaker 3 (01:02:04):
Here's your birthday bag.

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
Morgan Wallen's Last Night. What do you reckon, Bonnie? Awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:02:14):
You've got to be happy with that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:16):
Oh, that was big, wasn't it?

Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
Oh, baby. It was.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
What happened to Morgan Wallen?

Speaker 1 (01:02:23):
He's still kicking about.

Speaker 3 (01:02:24):
Did he get a DUI or no?

Speaker 4 (01:02:26):
No.

Speaker 5 (01:02:26):
No, that wasn't him?

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
No, he threw a chair off a balcony, didn't he?
Or maybe he did both.

Speaker 5 (01:02:31):
Was that Morgan Wallen or someone else?

Speaker 3 (01:02:34):
Oh, God.

Speaker 1 (01:02:35):
You can't just say on the radio, oh, did that
guy get a DUI? You've got to check.

Speaker 5 (01:02:38):
Okay, I'm checking now.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
Allegedly. We'll wait. Before we tell Lynn that she's the
winner of Birthday Banger, we'll wait.

Speaker 5 (01:02:44):
Lynn's definitely winning.

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Morgan Wallen was arrested for a DUI. Oh, that was
back in January 2016. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
He did it, though.

Speaker 3 (01:02:54):
And he threw the chair.

Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
Yeah, there you go. Yep. Hey, Lynn, you're our birthday
banger winner.

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
Yes, early 2000s for the wins.

Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
Yes, girl.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Beating and throwing chairs. Let's go, baby. From 2002, here's
Christina's Dirty Zinem. And I'm throwing elbows. And I'm throwing elbows.
And I'm throwing elbows. It's ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.

(01:03:22):
Birthday Banger on ZM with Brie and Clint. Christina Aguilera's Dirty.
It's the winner of Birthday Banger for our friend Lynn.
It was number one in November 2002. What a time.

Speaker 3 (01:03:33):
What a time to be alive. That was when she
went from Christina to X-Tina. You know, like how sometimes
if you want Christmas to be raunchy.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
It's X-mas. And she got the drip.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
No.

Speaker 6 (01:03:45):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
It doesn't make Christmas raunchy.

Speaker 3 (01:03:48):
That's what Christina went from Christina to ex-Tina. Yeah. And
she went from good girl to bad girl.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
Yeah, but that's not.

Speaker 5 (01:03:56):
And so Christmas, when it becomes X-mas, naughty Christmas.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Right. That's what it meant, I thought. So if I
text my nan, what are you doing for X-mas?

Speaker 3 (01:04:08):
That means she'll probably tell you, you know, what she's
getting up to after dark.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
Jesus Christ, it was a good rest. It's our first.
It's our last week with our producer Ella, okay?

Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
It is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
And I've got a challenge for you next, Ella, just
because I want to get you on air for your
last week, you know, give you the chance to shine.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
Yes, please.

Speaker 1 (01:04:26):
So we're going to do a challenge next all about sayings, okay?
Popular sayings. And I've got a teaser one just to
get your brain rolling, see how we're looking, okay? So
if I said to you, complete the saying, could you
do it, okay? And the saying I have for you is,
every cloud....

Speaker 5 (01:04:44):
Has a story.

Speaker 2 (01:04:46):
What is it? Do you know this?

Speaker 6 (01:04:49):
Every cloud.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Every cloud has.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
Rain. I've never heard that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
That's not fair.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
You can't start on a hard one.

Speaker 7 (01:04:56):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
I know sayings, but that's not ever.

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Every cloud has a silver.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
Lining.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
There she is.

Speaker 2 (01:05:03):
Every cloud has a silver lining.

Speaker 3 (01:05:05):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 (01:05:07):
This is going to be good. We'll do it next.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
It's ZM's Brinklin Podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
I saw this video today of this girl getting popular
sayings wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:05:17):
You know what they say, pink sky at night, sailors
take fright.

Speaker 1 (01:05:20):
What are you going to do about work?

Speaker 4 (01:05:22):
Try not to think about it, you know, I'll have
to just cross that bridge when it goes under it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:25):
Yeah, but I'm going to miss her.

Speaker 3 (01:05:26):
You know, distance makes the heart grow flounder and all
of that, so I'll be okay.

Speaker 1 (01:05:31):
Distance does make the heart go flounder.

Speaker 3 (01:05:33):
Doesn't it?

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
And I couldn't help but be reminded... of our wonderful
and departing producer, Ella, when I saw that video.

Speaker 3 (01:05:41):
No one knows sayings like you, Ella.

Speaker 2 (01:05:44):
That's what they say.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
They call her the sayings master. Yes. Yeah, say less. So, Ella,
in your last week, I'm going to test you on
some popular sayings, okay?

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
Okay, I'm just really nervous.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Are you ready for this?

Speaker 4 (01:05:54):
I'm nervous.

Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
You're going to complete them, and you're going to do
so well. Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:05:57):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:05:57):
You're going to have two phone-a-friends.

Speaker 8 (01:05:59):
Yes!

Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
One for Claudia.

Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
And one for Brie.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
And one for Brie. Okay. Okay, are you ready? Yep.
I've split these into easy, medium, and hard.

Speaker 5 (01:06:07):
It's a block, Ella.

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
Let's start easy, okay? I expect you to get these ones.

Speaker 5 (01:06:10):
You've got this.

Speaker 1 (01:06:11):
The early bird.

Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
Gets the worm.

Speaker 1 (01:06:13):
Close enough.

Speaker 4 (01:06:14):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
I'll take it. Rome wasn't... Built in a day.

Speaker 1 (01:06:19):
Good stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:06:20):
Crushing it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
Actions speak.

Speaker 2 (01:06:22):
Louder than words.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Yeah, girl.

Speaker 3 (01:06:24):
I'm so good at this.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
What goes up.

Speaker 5 (01:06:28):
What goes up?

Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
Something down.

Speaker 3 (01:06:33):
Comes down.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
What goes up, comes down.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
What goes up.

Speaker 3 (01:06:36):
Must.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Must come down.

Speaker 1 (01:06:38):
Yeah, good. Good work.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
Okay, you got all the easies.

Damn. Oh, wait, I forgot your surname is Shepard. You
should know that one.

Oh, shoot.

Speaker 2 (01:07:12):

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
Really? Really?

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
Don't count your chickens.

Speaker 3 (01:07:17):
Before they hatch. Yes. Oh, that's cute.

Speaker 2 (01:07:20):
I'm going to use that.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
I can't wait for him to drop it into conversation tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:07:27):
When the going gets tough.

Speaker 2 (01:07:29):
That's the sentence, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (01:07:31):
When the going gets tough.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Bree.

Speaker 2 (01:07:35):
Really? Oh, okay, okay. Remember, there's hard ones coming.

Speaker 5 (01:07:46):
The tough gets going.

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (01:07:48):
Is that what it is?

Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:07:50):
Don't put all your eggs.

Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
In one basket.

Speaker 3 (01:07:53):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
Yes, Ella, good stuff.

Speaker 9 (01:07:54):
They don't count them and they might hatch.

Speaker 1 (01:07:56):
Curiosity killed.

Speaker 8 (01:07:58):
The cat.

Speaker 3 (01:07:58):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (01:07:59):
Well done.

Stitch in time.

Speaker 2 (01:08:13):
Stitch in time.

Speaker 3 (01:08:42):
When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
That's the saying?

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
They don't even rhyme. That's the whole saying, yeah. No,
they don't all rhyme.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
They don't have to rhyme.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
Right, next. I like this game.

Too many cooks is annoying.

Speaker 2 (01:09:05):
Too many cooks. Where's my rat? Ratatouille. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know that one.

Speaker 3 (01:09:09):
In the kitchen.

Speaker 1 (01:09:10):
Too many cooks spoil the broth. A picture is worth.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
A thousand words.

Speaker 9 (01:09:16):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
The grass is always greener.

Speaker 2 (01:09:18):
On the other side.

Speaker 1 (01:09:19):
Yeah. Birds of a feather.

Speaker 2 (01:09:22):
We should stick together.

I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:09:31):
Flock together. Expert category. The pen is mightier.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
And the writer.

Speaker 1 (01:09:39):
And the sword. You can lead a horse to water.

Speaker 9 (01:09:42):
But you can't lead a horse to my house.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
But you can't make it drink. Beauty is in.

Speaker 3 (01:09:48):
The.

Speaker 2 (01:09:49):
Beast of an eye.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
Beauty is in the eye. Eye of the beholder.

Speaker 3 (01:09:53):
Yes, girl.

Speaker 1 (01:09:54):
And last one. All that glitters... What? All that glitters.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
Is the star in the sky.

Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
Yeah, that's it. That's it.

Speaker 4 (01:10:03):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
You finished on a high.

Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
You finished on a high.

Speaker 8 (01:10:07):
I'm going to go count my chickens when they crack.

Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
Is that the same?

Speaker 1 (01:10:12):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (01:10:13):
That's also the same.

Speaker 1 (01:10:14):
And that's how to use it too. You're a quick learner.
You nailed it. They call me that. off home for
another night of no TV shows to watch.

Speaker 5 (01:10:25):
Oh, you've got nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:10:26):
Nothing. Colin from Accounts doesn't come out until tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (01:10:29):
I'm deep in Colin from Accounts.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
You've got the backlog to watch. Oh, actually, Ella's been
desperate to give us a TV show recommendation.

Speaker 2 (01:10:35):
It's called Adults.

Speaker 8 (01:10:37):
Season two has just dropped, and it is the best
show ever. If you're wanting new girl friends vibes. Gilmore Girls,
just that like friend 70s show vibe. This is it,
but for this generation now.

Speaker 1 (01:10:50):
It's so good. The reason Bri and I are hesitant
to watch it is Ella pitched it to us as
Friends for Gen Z.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
It is, but it's so clever in how it's written.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:11:01):
It is. Is it as clever as the TV show Friends?

Speaker 2 (01:11:05):
It's up there.

Speaker 8 (01:11:06):
I would say like the writing is really good.

Speaker 4 (01:11:09):
Whoa.

Speaker 8 (01:11:09):
And if you guys ever get an interview with any
of them, Paul Baker, I love him so much.

Speaker 2 (01:11:13):
He's my new crush. I have to come to that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
Well, we love a recommendation. Where do you watch the
TV show adults?

Speaker 3 (01:11:18):
Disney.

Speaker 1 (01:11:19):
Disney.

Speaker 3 (01:11:20):
Yes.

Speaker 9 (01:11:20):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:11:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:11:21):
And you can buy a cheap $ 10 version and get
ads in it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:24):
It's really great.

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
Oh, yeah, that's the new thing.

Speaker 5 (01:11:27):
Oh, yeah, they've got that option now, don't they?

Speaker 1 (01:11:28):
We pay the streaming platforms to watch their ads.

Speaker 3 (01:11:31):
Saving money.

Speaker 1 (01:11:33):
That's the new thing.

Speaker 4 (01:11:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
We'll give it a go. Are you going to give
it a go?

Speaker 5 (01:11:37):
I will if you will.

Speaker 1 (01:11:39):
I will if you will.

Speaker 3 (01:11:39):
You have to promise at least five episodes.

Speaker 5 (01:11:42):
Clint and I will definitely start.

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
Not five episodes. I can't promise you five episodes.

Speaker 5 (01:11:46):
Clint and I will definitely start watching it next week
when you're not here anymore.
