[0:00] Speaker 1: Show requested. So here it is. As long as you've
[0:03] Speaker 1: got da-da-dada.
[0:04] Speaker 2: It's ZM's Brian Clint Podcast. Another season of The Kardashians
[0:08] Speaker 2: dropped on Disney Plus last week, I believe. I haven't
[0:12] Speaker 2: watched it yet, but I will be watching.
[0:14] Speaker 1: Are you saving it up?
[0:16] Speaker 2: Yeah, I like to watch it back to back.
[0:18] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[0:19] Speaker 2: Just a mindless show to put on in the background.
[0:22] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[0:23] Speaker 2: They've been doing it for 19 years.
[0:25] Speaker 1: Insane.
[0:26] Speaker 2: Which is wild.
[0:27] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[0:28] Speaker 1: Long, long time.
[0:29] Speaker 2: I wonder how many seasons. What's your guess? 19. No,
[0:31] Speaker 2: because they had a break and then they changed from
[0:36] Speaker 2: Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
[0:37] Speaker 1: And they had spinoffs too.
[0:38] Speaker 2: And then they had spinoff shows.
[0:40] Speaker 1: And they have Kylie and Khloe go to Miami or something.
[0:44] Speaker 2: Kourtney and Khloe take Miami.
[0:47] Speaker 1: Kevin and Kim go to Costco.
[0:50] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[0:51] Speaker 2: Well, the new one, just the Kardashians, has eight seasons. Yeah.
[0:56] Speaker 2: And then Keeping Up With The Kardashians has 20 seasons.
[1:00] Speaker 1: Jeez.
[1:01] Speaker 2: So 28 seasons.
[1:03] Speaker 1: Okay.
[1:04] Speaker 2: And that's not the spinoffs either.
[1:06] Speaker 1: No.
[1:06] Speaker 2: There's more to add to the list. Anyway, I saw
[1:09] Speaker 2: a clip doing the rounds from this latest season.
[1:13] Speaker 1: Does that include that Revenge Body one?
[1:15] Speaker 2: I don't think so.
[1:16] Speaker 1: Which is the one that tried to get a revenge body.
[1:19] Speaker 2: Chloe hosted a show called Revenge Body.
[1:22] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[1:22] Speaker 2: Where she like would get all of her trainers and
[1:25] Speaker 2: dietitians to help people get revenge bodies. Yeah, they've had
[1:30] Speaker 2: a bunch. They've had a bunch. But saw a clip
[1:33] Speaker 2: from this latest season of the Kardashians that was doing
[1:36] Speaker 2: the rounds where all the sisters were talking about an
[1:41] Speaker 2: inner monologue.
[1:42] Speaker 1: Okay.
[1:43] Speaker 2: Do you have an inner monologue?
[1:45] Speaker 1: Um, I'm not sure. Like someone who'd speak, do I
[1:49] Speaker 1: speak with someone in my mind? Do you have a.
[1:51] Speaker 2: Voice in your head? So like a good example, and
[1:55] Speaker 2: I feel like they say it in this clip that
[1:57] Speaker 2: we're about to play, but a good example is like,
[2:00] Speaker 2: you know, like when I'm at the gym and I'm
[2:02] Speaker 2: counting like my reps, I'm like one.
[2:05] Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I've got that.
[2:05] Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an inner monologue.
[2:07] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[2:07] Speaker 1: So you've got a voice in your head. In my
[2:09] Speaker 1: head I'm like, should I go over and use that machine?
[2:11] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[2:11] Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got that. Yeah, okay, yeah, I've got that.
[2:13] Speaker 2: That's what we're talking about. Producers, would you say you've
[2:15] Speaker 2: got an inner monologue? I think I've got three. Okay,
[2:17] Speaker 2: you can talk.
[2:19] Speaker 1: To someone about that.
[2:20] Speaker 2: You need to go see someone. Producer Grace? I definitely
[2:24] Speaker 2: have one, yes. It's pretty common, I think.
[2:26] Speaker 1: Self-talk. Yeah.
[2:29] Speaker 2: I think it's very rare that someone doesn't. But take
[2:32] Speaker 2: a listen to this clip from the latest season of
[2:36] Speaker 2: the Kardashians.
[2:37] Speaker 3: Let's say 3% of people do not have an inner dialogue.
[2:41] Speaker 1: Who are these people?
[2:42] Speaker 3: My sister, Kim. I wrote to my family group chat.
[2:45] Speaker 2: I was like, healthy.
[2:46] Speaker 3: Nuts is this? Everyone was like, that's not true. This
[2:49] Speaker 3: can't be true. Kim said, what do you guys mean?
[2:52] Speaker 3: There's no voices in my head. I'm like, you've got
[2:55] Speaker 3: to be me. Like I can be with my trainer,
[2:58] Speaker 3: you and I talking and I'm counting my reps in
[3:01] Speaker 3: my head. Like I, my brain, there's like two people,
[3:03] Speaker 3: maybe three. I can have a whole conversation and still
[3:06] Speaker 3: be like, I got to go get the dry cleaning
[3:07] Speaker 3: later or whatever.
[3:09] Speaker 2: Kim has nothing. Wow.
[3:12] Speaker 1: Is that how you get 28 seasons of a television show?
[3:14] Speaker 1: Because you just, instead of it being in your head,
[3:16] Speaker 1: it's all out loud.
[3:18] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[3:19] Speaker 1: It's all out loud.
[3:20] Speaker 2: Isn't it interesting?
[3:21] Speaker 1: So your thought process happens out loud.
[3:24] Speaker 2: I feel like it's super rare.
[3:26] Speaker 1: I don't know that it's possible. How do you have thoughts?
[3:29] Speaker 2: Because I have the visual version of this.
[3:33] Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, we've talked about this.
[3:34] Speaker 2: Which we've talked about. And I've looked it up before
[3:38] Speaker 2: where this is the audio version of it, but I've
[3:40] Speaker 2: got the visual one, which is Amphantasia, where when I
[3:44] Speaker 2: close my eyes and I try and picture something.
[3:47] Speaker 1: Like I say, picture a horse running.
[3:49] Speaker 2: And I just see black. Like I don't see anything.
[3:51] Speaker 1: Whereas I don't even need to close my eyes.
[3:53] Speaker 2: You can picture it.
[3:54] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[3:54] Speaker 2: Yeah, see, I can't do that.
[3:56] Speaker 1: I can tell you what direction the horse is running in.
[3:58] Speaker 2: What colour it is.
[3:58] Speaker 1: I can tell you what colour the horse is. I
[4:00] Speaker 1: can tell you how flowy its mane is. I can
[4:02] Speaker 1: tell you all those things.
[4:03] Speaker 2: I can't do that.
[4:03] Speaker 1: You don't see it?
[4:04] Speaker 2: Nah.
[4:05] Speaker 1: How did you draw pictures as a kid?
[4:08] Speaker 2: Not very well.
[4:08] Speaker 1: Well, text us if you don't have it in a monologue.
[4:13] Speaker 1: What's live like? Is it quiet?
[4:16] Speaker 2: It'd be so quiet and nice, I reckon.
