I know. I guess that's... You know, when I first started in radio, you just... They didn't pay you. Money wasn't a thing. Yeah. Yeah.

Do they still do that? Yeah. Are you getting paid for this? Yeah, I'm getting paid getting paid it's good oh serious money man did you have to like

did you have to play hardball on that or not no no I didn't I don't think my my contract negotiation skills are quite up to scratch to play hardball but look

like as an intern and stuff you do uh unpaid stuff quite frequently as well but it's a fantastic opportunity it is yeah that's what everyone tells you right

yeah just just just so you know your negotiation skills they don't get any better the older you get yeah as well. But it's a fantastic opportunity. It is. Yeah, exactly. That's what everyone tells you, right? Yeah, and just so you know, your negotiation skills, they don't get any better the older you get. Yeah. Like I still go in there and go, we're worth this. And they're like, no, you're not. And you're like, no, you're right. Yeah. And then you walk out. It's a real game too. People are really good at it.

They are. You get agents and stuff to do stuff. We've got one of Wormagen who we signed up with. She's fantastic at it. Yeah, but it's all a game. I'm just like, well, what have they got? They're going to be honest. That's what they've got. That's what they've got. You know, but it's all like, no, ask for this, but they'll come to that.

I don't know. Who invented the negotiation system? You're right, Ben. Just go, what have you got? Well, this is what I want. No, we don't have that. Okay, well, I'm sorry. Just honesty.

Just everyone be honest. Everyone's all trying to like, oh, but I can't do it. I'm no good at that. You would be the worst negotiator. If you were the police negotiator, there would be bombs going off all the time. People jumping off bridges. People pleaser. I'd be like, you want to do it again?

Yeah, yeah. All right, mate. Oh, you want to detonate that bomb? You do what makes you happy, mate. I can't talk you out of it. I'm not the boss of you yeah so don't get us to negotiate for you yeah yeah i do yeah like i was saying you didn't get paid but you would survive off expired promotional foods yeah that were readily available like for some reason just a lot of meat sticks like you know cured meat. We had an abundance of them at The Rock. So I lived on a lot of dried meats and

selling compact discs. Extraordinary amount of... I don't think you can do that anymore because they're not really much of a thing. Take them down to the shop. Do you want to buy compact discs? No, thank you. But I've got 10 copies of Matchbox 20. Why do you have 10 copies of the same album? Matchbox 20's greatest hits. All of their hits.

I really liked them and I didn't want the CD to wear out. So I had one in the car, one at home. And that's what you were doing. But I figure that it's all in the stage of life you're in. Yeah, exactly. At the moment, what you're earning is probably perfect for what you need in life. Oh, exactly. It's more than enough.

Yeah, no, it's great. Don't say more than enough. No, it's a bad negotiation. Even me is a bad negotiation. Don't say that. Well, that's more than enough. A bad negotiation. Even me is a bad negotiation. Don't say that. Well, that's more than enough. We can take some off there. But you kind of just get used to the money you're on when you're on it, don't you?

I mean, everyone always wants to be on more money. Yeah. But you kind of live with what you've got. You know, you think back to when you were 19 years old writing ads. Yeah. What were you surviving on? I think the broadcasting school at first you get some sort of like i think it was 250 a week or something you know something

like that well the school would pay you no you get as part of your internship yeah right your internship uh and then i think if you wanted more money it was like hello student loan let's just keep you know keep putting that up there then you got to pay that back the wonderful thing is the student loan you don't worry about the repercussions of that do you not at the time no but later you're like this thing hanging over my head it's interesting i think i think that intern wage hasn't changed because 20 years later like last year when i was doing my internship 250 bucks a week was sort of sort of standard hasn't risen with inflation or the cost of living the old intern wage interns a lot like how are you,

are you eating? Just, yeah, free promo sticks, the meat sticks, the free promo, don't have to buy clothes, free promo shirts. And Matchbox 20 CDs. Enjoy the podcast today.

This is the Jono and Ben podcast. Wall-to-wall talking without the niggly popular songs in between. Ben, I just bumped into Vaughan from the Fletch Vaughan and Hayley show on ZM. Yeah. They work next door. Great show.

Great show. Now, we haven't seen him for a couple of weeks. Yeah. But, you know, about a week ago, while we were on holiday, we were both nominated for awards at the world-renowned New Zealand Radio Awards. I don't know if they're world-renowned. It's the Academy Awards of New Zealand. It's the awards that every New Zealander waits for.

Who's going to win Best Jingle? Hey, I won that one, yeah. For Novus, Josh O'Crag. Well-deserved. We're still trading off it today. 15 years later. That's right. So that's how good these awards are.

Anyway. So no one outside the radio industry cares about this. It's a very industry award. We were holidaying away together, you and I, as we've been banging on about.

We've come back and we're like, yeah, we're on holiday. We talk about our holiday. We holiday together. And one of our bosses was over where we are

and he's like, you guys need to come and watch the radio awards with me. They do a live stream of the awards. Yeah. So we were nominated

in the same category as Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. And as we were just turning on, the boss was turning on the same category as Fletch, Warren and Hayley and as we were just turning on, the boss was turning on the live stream He got me quite excited because he said, no you need to be there, you need to watch it. I'm like, ooh, this is exciting because I thought maybe the bosses might know

you know, like a little wink wink nudge nudge who's going to win. I was like well maybe we've fluked it. Yeah, he's like I'll treat you to a wonderful night of, you know, the finest foods of the ocean crayfish, lobster, you name it, you can eat it. Shark. We didn't have that, though, did we?

No, no. But I got quite excited. And then, yeah, we started watching the radio awards with him. Now, he won it. The boss won an award. Yeah, so maybe that's why he wanted us there. So we could watch him in it. No, no, mate.

And he had done a video message, a pre-recorded video message. And it was like, oh, thanks for here. And I was like, oh, you did a video message a pre-recorded video message and it was like oh thanks for here and I was like oh you did a video message and he said you didn't do a video message? and we said no we weren't asked to do a video message

and he said oh and you could tell he was trying to backtrack and he said yeah because in our minds we were like we clearly didn't win then because

we haven't been asked to do a video message and then he said oh no I think they we're meant to get everyone to do a video message. So no one knew who won. And then I'm like, well, in that case, we definitely didn't win. Definitely haven't won. Yeah. He was like, oh, well, maybe they didn't ask you because you're on holiday. I'm like, well, they asked you and you're on holiday.

And the two of us are together right now. We could have done a video message at any stage. And so at that point, I was like, well, there's not much point in this. This is the rest of us are together right now we could have done a video message at any stage and so at that point I was like well there's not much point to this this is the rest of this is it and that's why

I was just congratulating Vaughan outside because they ended up winning ultimately there was a part of me going hey they might cross to us live live video link

why are they going to cross to us live scrolling through your feed listen we're fresh back from holiday but one member of the show has never granted annual leave

do you know what that is? The news. Never stops. Doesn't stop, does it? Even if you take a break from it. We should give it some time off, even over New Year's when there's literally no news. And they're like, going to visit some rabbit that's wearing a Christmas hat and doing a news story on that. Let the news have a breather then, maybe.

Now, there's an art exhibition going exhibition going on in auckland right now and one of the exhibits is dividing art fans so australian artist has got a bit of work in the exhibit and it basically features a mcdonald's cheeseburger pickle you know the little pickle that you either like or don't like in the burger uh he's just flung it onto the ceiling and it's like a white ceiling and the pickle the round sort of pickle shaped thing is onto the ceiling. And it's like a white ceiling, and the pickle, the round sort of pickle-shaped thing is on the ceiling, and that's it. That's his contribution. That's art. So it's basically as art as like a Saturday

night at McDonald's Queen Street. Everyone throws the ingredients on the floor or the ceiling of the two options. It's divided. Divided people. Some people have said that's not art, and other people have said well, art is anything that you decide is art, and it's an artistic thing as well. Well, it is what you decide.

I was, like, the only fact I know about art, and this might not be surprising given my personality being, is that Picasso had a wild period where he was painting with his own feces. And that was an experimental period for Picasso, obviously. Picasso. But art is art. And it's weird what takes off. Like, you could smear some mayonnaise on that Glenn 20 can right there. And that could be art. Display that in the Auckland Museum.

That would be art. So, yeah, it's dividing some people. And one of the biggest shows right now, if not the biggest show in the world, is Stranger Things on Netflix. And Jim Hopper, the character, David Harbour is the guy who played it. Now, he was talking on a show. This show is the biggest thing. I think it's saving Netflix at the moment, Stranger Things.

But he thought when it first started, he was like, this show is not going to be good. Have a listen. Did you expect it to be such a huge success? Not at all. I remember when we were shooting the first season, we were down in Atlanta. Netflix had given us a budget of about

$20 and we were and we thought halfway through, I remember my hair person coming up to me and going like about episode four we were shooting and she was like, I don't think it's going to work. I was like, what? So by the time we finished, we wrapped, I thought we wouldn't get a second season.

It would be the first Netflix show kind of ever to never get a second season. We thought no one would watch it. It was going to be a disaster. And here you are. I mean, nobody's more surprised than Kate Bush, to be fair. Here's a question. Yeah, well, the Kate Bush song.

Yeah, my kids love it. They've been watching that through the school holidays. You never want your hair person coming up to you going, halfway through. So not even at the beginning. never want your hair person coming up to you going, halfway through. So not even at the beginning. Where's the hair person come up and go, mate, this is,

oh man, you know, they're a hairdresser. They have no expertise in, they're coming up. They know it's bad. I mean,

our TV show, John O'Banion, got cancelled. At what stage did your hair person come up to you and say, maybe that's the problem.

I never had one. Maybe I needed, no, Dana, who was our wonderful makeup artist, lovely Dana, she would spend a lot of her time just sort of dealing with my eyebrows Trimming your wayward eyebrows Eyebrows, they're all on different paths in life, and she's just

trying to control them, that was 20 minutes work, and not once during that process did she say, this thing's not working, so maybe Dana you should have spoken up Maybe it would have been nice to hear that a few more say, this thing's not working. So maybe, Darnie, you should have spoken up. Maybe it would have been nice to hear that a few more times. But that's what's making news this morning. With a long and extinguished career, Jono and Ben on the hit.

With a woman I love. Night. Yeah. All we need is a stickle all night. Ed Sheeran, two-step. It is the hits. Jono and Ben, 6.23 on your Wednesday morning. Hey, we want to know on 0800 the hits.

Anyone listening now had multiple marriages because Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have made news recently for a secret wedding that seems to have gone on. Jennifer Lopez has had more marriages than I've had hot dinners. Mainly because the oven's out at the moment. So we're just resorting to cold dinners.

But we're going to cross to LA now. Our Hollywood reporter, Ante, was this a secret marriage? Well, you know, because it took place in Las Vegas, I think that everybody thought that they were already married. It's just because she keeps sending out things. She thinks that she is Jennifer

Lopez from 20 years ago or 15 years ago, where everybody hangs on her every move, rather than the Jennifer Lopez who millennials really don't know. Gen Z certainly doesn't know. The only people that know are the people who read like, you know, the tabloids that are in the supermarket on the cover. Oh, Jennifer Lopez got married. How nice.

We were speaking many times. You're not a fan of Lopez. You say she's a wild diva, wild demands. Well, I mean, I honestly thought that she had been, I joked, I thought this was like her eighth marriage. But then I realized that she was just with some guys for a long time that weren't really, you know, husbands. But if you think about all the relationships she's been in,

it feels like eight or nine marriages. But this is the one that she should have been in from the very beginning obviously um but at that time when she was dating ben he couldn't afford her and but they have i'm serious i'm totally serious guys you know he bought her the pink diamond ring and he bought her the bentley it wasn't ben affleck of now where ben affleck gets like 15 or 20 million dollars it was ben affleck of you know i might make a million dollars this year and my agent's going to take 10 the taxes are going to take 40 and she wants me to buy her you know basically my whole year's salary on a ring and then a bentley and then my mom a car her mom a car and it was just it was it was

too much and then it was too much, and then there was too much publicity. Ben Affleck had to go down to Instant Finance, get a bloody loan for a Bentley. And I see that she's, speaking of wild demands, she's demanded to take his last name. So she's Jennifer Affleck. She is.

She is. She's Jennifer Affleck. That was on the thing. And I think that this relationship will last for a very long time or until he finds some casino waitress to have sex with or something. Oh, come on. Where's the love? Come on. Where's the lovers with the casino waitress? Casino waitress.

Last time when they broke up, it was a stripper from Vancouver. So this time, you know, I'm raising the bar. He's going to wait and hold out for a casino waitress. Oh, NT, well, it's always great to catch up with you. Thanks for dishing the dirt on what's happening in Hollywood, and we'll look forward to catching up with you next week. All right, you guys stay warm. See you, mate. Very funny.

0800 the hits, okay? Has anyone had more marriages than Jennifer Lopez? Or just multiple marriages? Yeah, yeah. No, we're not here to judge. We're just actually curious. Oh, you're not? I'm not, no. I thought you came to work to judge today. No, that wasn't what, no. Oh, okay. Sorry. So I couldn't get that job at the district court.

I wasn't there to judge either and I was like, well, you can't get this job as a judge. You're letting off a lot of criminals. Yeah. If you're looking for marriage advice, you are in the wrong place. Jono and Ben on the hits Jennifer Lopez married for the 39th time Taking Ben Affleck's surname So she's now Jaffleck

Which would be a nightmare That's to change your driver's licence Your passports, every single one of your hit albums Your movies Gotta do that So we are after most Amount of Marriages listening right now on 0800 The Hits

and joining us on New Zealand's Breakfast Pam Most Amount of Marriages what have we got? Three Three times over what

time period there Pam? Our first marriage was 16 16 oh wow oh you got married at 16 yeah that was the first marriage yeah right

how long did that last? Three years yeah right, you got married at 16? Yeah, that was the first marriage. Yeah, right. How long did that last? Three years. Yeah, right. So you were married and divorced by age 20? By 19, I was divorced. By 19, yeah. Then I got remarried at 22. Quick turnaround.

Yeah. And then I didn't get divorced until I married my late husband. So that was about, he's been gone 18, that was 21 years ago. I divorced about six weeks before I remarried for the third time. Oh, really? Yeah, I forgot to get a divorce. You forgot to get a divorce. It's always kind of pivotal, isn't it, when you're moving from one marriage to another.

And so did you fall in love with your now late husband during your second marriage? No. No. I met him after my second marriage and we were separated. Obviously you've done what makes you happy, which I think is awesome. But did you have times that you went, oh, should I keep with the marriage when maybe you weren't happy? Did you

ever think about that? Oh, I did. I did in both marriages. But then I thought, well, I've got to be happy in my life. My parents were old school. You made your bed, you line it. A lot of people did just plow on back in the day, didn't they? Resent each other. Spend 45 years bickering and then you die. Yeah. Get through it for the kids, maybe, and then don't talk to each other, right? Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, good on you. I'm not saying they were bad marriages. I'm just saying that I was too young, really. Yeah, right. Yeah, well, I mean, you know, 16 seems quite young to get married. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't even get married at 16.

Oh, you couldn't. You had to have your parents' permission. Oh, right. I was 18 in those days. Would you like to get married? Oh. Hang on. You've forgotten about your divorce thing that you'd need to do, Jono. I know, but would I now? So that's okay.

I don't have to get a divorce. Well, no, you're fine, but Jono's technically, he's taken. Can I just say on the record, I know it sounded like I was about to propose to you. I was just saying, maybe we can find Pam a new husband. Oh, somebody would be nice. It does get lonely.

Yeah, what would you like, Pam? Oh, just somebody to communicate, and that is honest. Honest, communicate, hot, muscly. Doesn't worry me. Doesn't worry you? Does not worry me, as long as they're honest. That's the main thing. And family-orientated.

I've got quite a few grandchildren and great-grandchildren. All right. She wants an honest uggo. She'd say that. I have tried. Believe me, I have tried. Would you hop on like Tinder or any dating sites? Oh, my granddaughter put me on that.

Oh, my gosh. Were you floating around Tinder for a while, were you, Pam? I lasted a week and I went, oh, no, this is not for me. Not for you, not for you. Just photos of shirtless guys holding fish. Yes, exactly. I was like, oh, gosh. Oh, Pam, well, thank you for sharing your story with us.

We appreciate it. Oh, no worries. The Hits. Jono and Ben, the bold and the beautiful. On the Hits. Noteo and Ben, the bold and the beautiful. On the Hits. Note, may not be beautiful. I noticed something that everyone has, every New Zealander has, and I honestly think we can be doing it better as a nation.

If not internationally, globally. I'm going to take this globally, Ben. What's that? Get me Biden on the phone. Okay. The passport photo. Okay? The humble New Zealand passport photo.

Now, I have, have you seen my passport photo? I have an image of my passport photo. Okay? The humble New Zealand passport photo. Now, I have... Have you seen my passport photo? I have an image of my passport photo. Now, I'll just hand this around the studio to you so you can have a look at it. There, Producer Joel, you can have a look at it. He's smirking, he's smiling. Ben, you've got it in your hand.

Oh, yeah. Now... You've got a little bit of... Oh, no, it does look like you've got a strange hairstyle, but I think it's just the design from behind coming through, you know? Now, the look in my eyes is I look like I've been told I've just been made redundant. You do. I look a little bit dead in the eyes.

Everyone looks so, so sad on their passport photos. I noticed I was wearing a singlet as well, taking a very relaxed approach to my passport. I mean, who would let this guy into any country, let alone, you know, back into New Zealand? I mean, the good thing is that photo could be used when I get sent to Purimamo as well. I had one before because you know how the design of what's in the background and everything, they sort of print that over the top.

My last one, it looked like I had a really great neck tattoo, but the way the design came through. Oh, with the Maori design on it, yeah. Oh, sort of, yeah, like the sort of design, I think. Did you look good with the neck tattoo? Well, I don't know if it was quite my thing, but yeah, but I was, like, coming through as well. Well, you'd never make it in the NRL, mate. Yeah, but I think that I always, my theory is they need two passport photos.

One for when you leave, when you look happy, and that's a happy, smiling one, and one for when you come home, and that's the one we've currently got, where you look all sort of moody and it's all sort of black and white. That's a good one. I thought you could add maybe a third to that mix as well, like, just one where you're indifferent. You're not like sad, you're not happy,

you're just like, oh, I'm going on a work trip. You know, one for that information. I had to get my daughter, Indy was really young, we were going overseas to see some family and try and get a baby to take a passport photo. I mean, let alone, I mean, you couldn't even do it as an adult. No, but you had to do that yourself too. When I took her into the chemist and was chemist and then we were trying to hold her up

and she's trying to look at the camera and she was only a couple months old, not to smile, they had to lay her down on the floor of the chemist with the backdrop behind. Oh, and do an over the head shot over the top.

It was like, jeez. What I don't get though is babies can dine out on their passport photo until they're like 15. Yeah, I don't know if it's 15. That might be an exaggeration. I think you might be right. It could be like 10 years now. It's a long haul. It's a long passport photo until they're like 15. Yeah, I don't know if it's 15. That might be an exaggeration. I think you might be right.

It could be like 10 years now. It's a long haul. It's a long haul. They look nothing like that. This is just any baby. A baby looks the same as another baby. What, a nine-year-old child still looks like that? You're like, oh, that's it.

No, that's not that baby. So if you want anything smuggled, put it on a baby. Okay. Smuggle. Use the baby smugglers. It's not talking about that. That'll get some stuff.

But what I'm saying is why do we have to have passport photos that we look like life's got the better of us? Yeah. Let's just be a bit, you know, add some pizzazz and personality to them. New Zealand's most successful unsuccessful show. Jono and Ben on the hits. The hits and Live Nation are stoked to present. One Republic live in New Zealand.

How are you guys feeling? Let's go. They're coming to New Zealand. Two shows. Auckland Spark Arena, March 16. Wellington TSB Arena, Saturday, March 18. It's going to be awesome. One Republic in New Zealand.

Tickets go on pre-sales this morning 11 o'clock from Live Nation, general public tickets on Friday. More info go to the hits.co.nz. But we have a double pass to give away to One Republic and did this yesterday. Now you're running this game, you're the Bradley Walsh of One Republic facts where you read out three facts about One Republic

one of them is false. Now no disrespect to One Republic where are we going to be by Friday with these facts? Because yesterday you started with they were named after One Republic toilet. That was the false fact. That was the one I came up with as well. Are you going to get to Friday and be like, fact, when they're playing music, they like to hold instruments on stage.

Maybe. Okay, well, here is my facts right now. One of these is false. Oh, 100 the hits, if you know which one is false. Okay, lead singer Ryan, he tore his Achilles heel, and he was at home, and he wrote the song Halo. At home? With an Achilles heel torn?

Is that a fact, or have I made that up? It sounds too specific. When you make things up, they're very vague. I'm going to go that's true. Okay, well, that might be true or might be not. A guitar player, Zach, from One Republic, his muscular torso is used for packs of jockey underwear. He's got a muscular torso and he's on packs of jockey underwear.

Is that a fact? Again, a lot of detail in there as well, but maybe a little too much detail. Now, the original song lyrics says my third fact, Too Late to Apologise. You know this song? Originally, the lyrics to this song was, It's too late for bolognese.

After lead singer Ryan came home at 10pm, wanted to reheat some bolognese that he'd cooked from the night before, then decided it was too late for bolognese to have carbs after 10. And so he decided that that wasn't a good idea. But at first he was going to have too late for bolognese and then he decided it was too late to apologise. Again, guys, this is meant to go all week. Well, hey, one of those is true.

Sorry, two of those is true and one is a lie. We'll go to Nelson, shall we? Kerry, how's the South Island after the downpour yesterday? Yeah, not too bad in Nelson. I think down south got a little bit worse than us, but we're doing alright. Yeah, we still crushed you. It's bloody soggy. Soggy AF, mate. A month's worth of rain in 24 hours. Now, Kerry,

you've heard those three outstanding facts. One of them is false. Which one is the false One Republic fact? Definitely the last one, I think. Yes, you are correct. It's too late for bolognese. It's never too late for bolognese. You can have bolognese any hour of the day. Breakfast bolognese.

Buff, what is it? Brunch bolognese. Hey, well, well done. You're going to go see One Republic when they're in New Zealand next year. That's magical. Thank you so much, bud. No worries. Have a great day.

So that makes it really interesting that Ryan, the lead singer, did write Halo for Beyonce. It is wild. And guitar player Zach, his torso was used in jockey underwear, you know, like on the packet. So that's pretty cool. My torso is used in before shots. Before shots, like tradie undies or something.

If you're here for parenting advice, you're in big trouble. Jono and Ben on the hits. We talked yesterday about loud mouth kids after my daughter Sienna used the taxi call on me when I broke a glass over the holiday period. I told her about it a few weeks ago, that saying this is what you do if someone breaks a glass. But I never expected it to be used on me.

And usually it's to someone who's slightly inebriated. What was your condition at the time of the taxi call? Was it working on many levels? Yeah, it probably did. It was probably... It was a well-deserved taxi. It was the ideal time to do it. It was in a bar situation.

It was, you know, it was perfect taxi conditions. The other one I like is when you go like this, and it's... Dad's home. Oh, yeah, that's what people... Yeah, that's right. People say, oh, Dad's home. Those aren't two beer bottles, by the way.

Well, are they, or are they not? say, oh, Dad's home. Those aren't two beer bottles, by the way. Well, are they or are they not? We'll let you be the judge. Hey, so yesterday we got talking about loudmouth kids and we had some fantastic calls come through. I picked the kids up from school, threw them to swimming. My son sat in the front seat next to me the whole time. Got out at the pool.

He took one look at me and in his loudest voice possible said to me, Oh my God, what happened to your face? Mum, don't run. I said, why not? She said, you run like a fat person. Do you? I'm not going to answer that.

I run like a fat person. That's why I was asking. I was just wondering what her technique was, because I find myself looking in the shop window going, oh, you're definitely running like a fat person, Pryor. But what we discovered yesterday after just hearing those two calls, those aren't the only two loudmouth kids in New Zealand. Apparently there's more.

I think, you know, multiple, multiple stories. Like I have my kids, you know, many times. Loads of texts coming through. What I love to as kids, after know, many times. Loads of texts coming through. what I love to his kids after they've said whatever the comment is, show absolutely no remorse. No remorse. They're not sorry.

They don't apologize. Yeah. At what stage do you have to start apologizing? Yeah. Like when do kids, when do they, yeah. When does that happen? I remember going through,

like teaching my daughter, you know, about the anatomy, the different parts of the body. And then she decided going through customs. We're going to the like teaching my daughter, you know, about the anatomy, the different parts of the body. And then she decided going through customs. We're going to the States to visit family, going through customs in America, which is a scary, intimidating place to blurt out the male part of the anatomy

very loud, right while we were right at the guy, you know, just giving over our passports. And she's like, yeah, really? And you're like, okay, why is a three-year-old yelling at that? I would love nothing more than for Ben Boyce to teach me about the anatomy. Imagine. It's an awkward conversation. I couldn't even say it then.

Wait, how did you do it? Did you draw pictures? What were you doing? How did this work out? Ben Boyce doing anatomy class. I'm not doing it. Because then you wouldn't want to be saying the probably actual words. You'd be too scared to say the actual words.

Well, you know, you do try to, because otherwise you go around saying odd things, then they get done when they're older. Like the peeny weeny and things. Yeah. And not afraid to use the F word. Be family friendly fun. Jono and Ben on the hits. I had an old saying back in the day,

kids should be seen and not heard. Remember that saying? Yeah. I say back in the day like I was around in those times. Oh, you're right. It was the saying that people would say. And it must have just been just weird, silent, mute children wandering around everywhere. Nowadays, my kids are seeing it when they're on the iPad or something like that.

They're pretty quiet then. And we've done a 180 because now we've got a whole generation of loudmouth kids. And that's what we're talking about now on 0800 The Hits. We've got Rochelle. Welcome to the show. How are you? Good. How are you?

Yeah, good. Loudmouth kids. what have you got? I explained to my four year old at the time about babies And explained that woman had a thing called a womb And then about, oh it must have been a week and a half, two weeks later Nothing on the way to kindy He runs into kindy and explains to everyone that his mummy has worms So today I was lying on the inside

as an understatement. You don't want any worm rumours going round about you, do you? Not. I mean, it would have been nice if things he could have said. But then did you have to explain,

because then it's probably even more awkward having to explain why he's saying worms. Yes, I had to explain that we had kind of, you know, told him about the bird and the bee, well, not the bird and the bees, that we had kind of, you know, told him about the birds and bees,

well, not the birds and bees, but how babies kind of come around without too much detail for a four-year-old. So they're looking at me like, how much did you tell him? Yeah, no, I mean, you might... I'm just seeing myself as a bigger hole, I think. Maybe the safer option was saying you had worms. Just roll with it. It's such a good call.

We appreciate it. All good. Good, yeah. Teresa, welcome. How are you this morning, Teresa? Good, thank you. How are you? We're doing well.

We're talking loudmouth kids. Yeah, yeah. I've got a good story for you. The other day I was waiting in line at the coffee shop, as you do. Needed a coffee. And my daughter was really keen for a sausage roll and on this particular day I said no sorry not today. She turns around

right in front of a whole line of people and says mum if you don't let me have a sausage roll I'm going to punch you in the vagina. It was very embarrassing. And did it get results? No, it did not.

I did not give in. But my husband and everyone else thought it was pretty hilarious that she said that because she's normally quite an innocent kid. So it was kind of left field, yeah. And they're the right height too, aren't they? Oh, yeah, she certainly is the right height. Yeah, the strike zone is just sweet there. Thank you, Teresa.

Bex, welcome. Loudmouth Kids. Morning. Yeah, so I was at a playground with my children and another family, and there was a few people there, and my son calls out to me. I'm about 50 metres away. Hey, Mum, there's something really inappropriate written here. And he goes, it's SMB, and I'm trying to work out what that means, and as I work out what here. And he goes, it's SMB.

And I'm trying to work out what that means. And as I work out what it means, he goes, yeah, suck. And in my head, I was like, you'd worked out that it was not appropriate, yet you still decided to shout it out across the playground. And I love how you've just shouted it out across the airwaves as well. Totally, totally. Yeah, maybe we should have told you what was appropriate to say and not say on the radio.

Yeah. Oh, well. Love your work. Make you laugh at least. Make you laugh. Made us laugh. Bex, you're an absolute champion. We'll send you out some Hell Pizza again.

Awesome. Thank you. Bye. Delivering this lifetime and next Hell Pizza, and you can order beer and wine there too scrolling through your feed if it's news and information that you want well you've certainly come to the wrong place what's happening oh i said before very very exciting uh someone is making their musical return six years after their last release of music and it's britney spears now she is returning next month she's teaming up with sir elton john oh listen you're talking about this before seven and you're teasing me that's a great combo yeah

so they're gonna do a duet together according to sources some blabbermouth uh some john o'briar and britney's life has gone out there go hey guess what guys i would definitely be the sources hey yeah but i source says ben boyce is currently cheating on someone. So the sources said it's a duet of the Tiny Dancer song from Elton John. And apparently they secretly met last month to record it. The source also claimed a single was going to be the song of the American summer because it's summer over there at the moment. And it's so good. That's what the source said.

The source said a lot. Sack the source. In the source's contract, I love Tiny Dancer. My only, I have one bugbear. It's one of my favorite, probably all-time songs, Tiny Dancer. It's a great song. My only bugbear is it takes too long to get to the whole because of Tiny Dancer.

Yeah, wait until three. Elton John's dragging it out for three and a half, four minutes until you get to sing the chorus. Of course, Elton John teamed up with another pop star last year. You'll know this smash hit that we play many, many times. Cold Heart with Dua Lipa. The mashup of his songs Rocket Man and Sacrifice. That was a smash hit.

So I imagine Britney coming back with Elton John. That's going to be huge. Oh, amazing. You know, Elton John's cracked life, isn't he? Just rehashing old stuff. Put a bit of a dance beat. I've got some stuff. I've got a whole back catalogue of great stuff, guys.

Chuck a house dance music beat behind it and away you go. Now, if you're sick of forgetting your club cards, you know, you go along to, you know, like Countdown Supermarket and you're like, I haven't got my Countdown card

or anything like that. Well, a guy in the UK reckons he's cracked it. Now, Tesco, the supermarket over there, they have a club card and he's got the QR code tattooed on his wrist.

Can I just say, he definitely hasn't cracked it. That is not cracking it. That's the opposite of cracking it. And they went in on the video I was watching. They went and tested it. They took it up to the little scanner thing, and they had to scan the QR code, and it worked. So there you go. But then five years later, they'll change the system or something like that.

And you'll just have a random QR code on it. It just doesn't work anymore, but there you go. So that's something you can do if you're committed to really, you know, not forgetting your card. Weren't there some, now I'll bring you in, Producer Joel, you're of the age demographic. Weren't there some sort of 20-year-olds when we first had to have vaccine passes to go to nightclubs

and they had them printed on their shirts? I think so. Did you see that? I'm not too sure. I didn't see that. Clearly the wrong person to ask. I feel like people probably did I'm sure someone got a tattoo

of the vaccine pass thinking it was a good idea yeah probably some radio announcer yeah Jono Pryor's gonna be doing it next week and that is

What's Making News A-grade celebrity chat with C-grade celebrity hosts Jono and Ben on the hits now comedian Rhys Darby probably doesn't need

an introduction but I'll give him one anyway. He's been on everything all over Hollywood, movies like Jumanji and Yes Man, and shows like Flight of the Conchords, Our Flag Meets Death at the moment. And now he's celebrating 25 years of comedy. You can see him on tour.

Christchurch, Auckland and Wellington over the next couple of weeks. Get all the details at Rhys Darby's website. And he joins us over Zoom right now. Rhys Darby, good to see you. You too. How are you? Good. You look like you're in some sort of shady hotel room.

What's going on? I've fallen on hard times, guys. Things aren't good at home, guys. I'll only be a couple of minutes, please. Just need to borrow your house. It is so nice to see you. Now, Rhys Darby 25 years no disrespect but I thought you're slightly older than that but hey it's great gotta lie about your age

celebrating 25 years of comedy um with three specials here in New Zealand that you're doing which is awesome but it's kind of like the best of uh some of your comedy bits from what I understand but was it kind of strange looking back at some of your earlier comedy yeah back in the day i was very um i think style over substance we've continued with that throughout our whole career yeah is there some that you look back you're like oh that doesn't stack up in 2022 yes yes there are some things that i just was like, oh, that is, no, I can't say that anymore. And including a few impressions that look a bit on the nose, you know. And so I, you know, I had to be picky.

The people that you work with is incredible. But recently, one of the princes as well, Prince Harry. I mean, another moment. Yeah, that's just one of these opportunities that came about that tends to happen with me for one reason or another but usually it's because of the uh you know they want me involved in a comedy uh aspect but that's the only reason let's be honest um but i i got to write that little script as well and so to have Harry act first of all obviously to meet him

but then have him do my scripted piece and what an actor he was great he was awesome he completely nailed it but yeah I was really impressed with that dude I'd be inside my head if I'm around a prince like the protocol, how to act

I've met and worked with a lot of big celebrity actors and it was different to that because there's something about the royal family, there's something about us here in New Zealand under the Commonwealth. There was a different feeling, but luckily I think it was Harry rather than, say, William because Harry's kind of the more relaxed one.

He's pushed off to the side, he's pushed himself off to the side and he's kind of one of the people relaxed one he's he's pushed off to the side he's pushed himself off to the side and he's kind of one of the one of the people you know and said that there was that but then you know his manner and his poshness was still very much there and you find yourself talking um to the best of your ability when you're when you're speaking with me are you just as well trying to pull out all sorts of sophisticated words that mean nothing. Yeah, I was pulling stuff out of that I heard somewhere on The Crown on Netflix. Yeah, it's very rambunctious there, Prince.

Yes, exactly. One thing I love about you, Rhys, is seeing you, you know, often you have your voice that, you know, it's you. And you don't seem to change that no matter what role, you know, whether it's voicing something on The Simpsons or Jake and the Neverland Pirates or Our Flagman's Death. Have you tried? Have you been made to do an American accent or an English accent or things like that? No, not at all. I mean, they allow me to use my own voice because I think the characters I portray are unique and are either aliens or weirdos or someone from a world that no one believes in. New Zealand. It always fits in for me.

Taika mentioned it the other day when he came across this as well. He's always basically playing his own voice. And there's only a few of us Kiwis that are doing that. We're like, let's do it. Let's put our voices in there. Let's not change them because we're all humans and we're all storytellers on this planet. And when we close the whole thing up in a few years and look back at it all, let's say millions of years, you know, we're going to look and go, oh, remember those, remember those five voices that were

different? They must have been from a far away unusual land how did they get away with that speaking of taika i mean yourself and him i mean it must be pretty surreal for you guys coming through comedy in new zealand and then being where you are today do you just look at each other and go oh that's pretty cool yeah we're in a little bit of disbelief about it when i think about it and i see him and i think, you know, we've stuck to our guns and we haven't changed who we are. And we've both got very strong drive and we believe in ourselves and we believe that the unique New Zealand comedy that we're creating is worth something. And we've been told, thankfully, through, you know, the bits of success that we've all had, including Flight of

the Conchords, that it is something. So we're keeping it going. And I think it's that thing again of we're from the Western world, but we are from this mythological place called New Zealand and we're non-offensive and it's weird. And so people like that. Oh, well, you've done incredibly well. And it just keeps on getting better and better.

We're very proud of you all. And I guess if you did stop to think about it too much, it could get inside your head. Yeah. If you overthought the situation. That's why I haven't stopped. Just going to keep working till I die. I think so.

Just get it over and done with. I'm 25 years. Okay, that's the first marker. All right, we'll see you at the 50th. Let's just keep rocking. Rest, Harvey. Go see him. It's Christchurch on Saturday, and then Auckland next Friday,

and the following couple of Fridays on the 19th in Wellington. Tickets, you can get them all from your website. Go see Reece Darby. We're so proud of you, everything you do. It's so nice to catch up with you, buddy. Thanks so much, guys. Appreciate that. The Hits.

Looking for a pair of below-average husbands? Ta-da! It's Jono and Ben on the hits. Hey, now, sometimes, you know, we've talked about this before, but, you know, like when you write something down, whether you send someone an email, you write something, you send a text, you never really know the full intention of what that says. You know, you can't sometimes tell if someone's joking,

if they're mad, if they're being sarcastic. There's not really, I try an exclamation mark from time to time just to chill. What does that insinuate? I try and think it's a bit of a laugh, but I don't know if that really does. You often just come off with full caps, don't you? I do full caps. I'm in constant shout mode, so you never know where I'm at. But we got told off for using too many exclamation marks in a document we were writing.

They said, why are you using so many exclamation marks? It's because Ben wants to make the reader feel comfortable that it's like a, hey, everything's okay. Yeah, exactly. I don't mean this in a malicious way. But we were on holiday for the last couple of weeks with the family, and I got in trouble for, you know, like my wife sent the text, and I totally misread the situation.

It does happen. It does, because tonally you don't know where they're coming from. Because if it's like, you better pick up dinner tonight. Is that like, you better pick up dinner tonight. You've never provided it. Or hey, don't forget, pick up some dinner. This is exactly what happened to me. So we put some bags, some of our

bags, we were all carrying bags, the four of us and our family. We put some down next to some friends and then we on holiday we ended up going to get some food and drinks at a bar that was close by with the bags. Our friends were by the bags. And then my wife had to leave to go off to something she was doing. And I stayed in the bar with the kids and stuff. It was all good.

Being a responsible parent. Is it responsible taking kids to a bar? That's probably my way of. Yeah, what's it like? Just responsible. Yeah, I must be responsible. And then I get a text from my wife going, I have all the bags. And I was like, oh, that's great.

She's let me know that she's got all the bags. I don't have to worry about that right now. Because I had a lot to worry about looking after the kids. Yeah, the kids are a big responsible parent in the bar. Exactly. So I sent back a classic thumbs up back to my wife just to acknowledge that, you know, great. She's got all the bags. Thank you.

Cool. I don't have to worry about that. And then, you know, time had passed and I got to the stage. You're like, where is she with all the bags? Oh, yeah. Later she got to do her thing and I was like, well, was she coming? And I texted her, you're coming back. You know, this is time has passed.

It'd be good to see you end all the bags. Yeah, exactly. And she goes, yeah, I'm taking my time. It's quite hard with all 19 bags and it was at that point i went oh that first text maybe it wasn't just like hey i've got all the bags it was like i have all the bags and i would like a hand so if you could pull yourself away from the bar yeah but at that point i didn't realize that i really regretted sending that thumbs up to reply and And it's an insulting thumbs up, too. It is.

It is. I get annoyed my dad does that, too. You know, like I'll send a big, long text and he'll just reply thumbs up. If anything, it should have been a thumbs down. Like, oh, man, that sucks for you. So, yeah, we need to add something. We need to add a little something so you know when people are, you know, like. Well, some people do the voice memo text, which I don't know how i feel about those at the moment you know when someone's like hey you know mate

no worries they're kind of talking to themselves but they replied in a voice memo message and they kind of weirdly have to hear it yeah but they've gone on for way too long it goes on for two and a half minutes sometimes yeah my father-in-law actually the other night predictive got him i thought i think it was predictive because he texts me Out of the blue Hadn't heard from John For weeks Months And he said What do the rubbish team

Think about the oily babies I never got their thoughts on it What are the oily babies Jesus What do that team Of rubbish men Think about those babies Those oily babies

You're essential listening For non-essential banter Jono and Ben What do that team of rubbish men think about those babies? Those oiled up babies. You're essential listening for non-essential banter. Jono and Ben on the hits. Yesterday, previously on Jono and Ben Boy. Jono and Ben Boys? Jono and Ben Boy. Yeah, I like it. There were some claims made by both of us, Ben.

But in particular me, I think, where I threw out some accusations about chip consumption, hot chip consumption. And no one doesn't like a fry. You couldn't meet one person on this planet of Earth that doesn't enjoy hot chips. Outrageous statement. What a chip stirrer. Yeah, yeah.

So we've had some correspondence overnight. This has upset One person in particular Who joins us on the show right now We've got her on Sam, welcome to New Zealand's Breakfast You don't like fries No I've just never been a fan of them

I love potatoes I just don't like fries You don't like fries How can you not like fries? How do you like potatoes? A fry is the potato's best version of itself. No, mashed potato wins over every time. Wow.

What is wrong? So, like, if someone's at, you're at a shared dinner experience, they're like, let's get a big bowl of fries to start things off. Not for you. No, I went out for dinner for work the other night, and we all got side fries and my boss was

trying to get me to eat them and I just nosed. So if a burger came out, you ordered a burger and then it came with fries, you'd just leave the fries? Yeah, my partner would probably eat them or my kids. I thought fries were like Nelson Mandela. Everyone loved them. No, Sam.

You must be the only person in the world who doesn't like chips. What about potato chips? Like crisps? Yeah. Yeah, that's fine. What is it about the fry that you don't enjoy? I don't know. Like, I've just never been a fan of them.

But there's options. You know, you've got your crinkle cake. You've got your sort of the thin ones. You've got, you know, the You've got your sort of the thin ones. You've got the thicker ones. Any of those? No. If it had to be, it probably had to be a curly fry because they seem to have a bit more taste to it. What about a wedge?

Coming in with a wedge here. Oh, yeah. Or if it's got bacon with it, yeah. So we've found sort of a hybrid version that you like. I love it, Sam. Hold the line. We're going to send you out something. Really, really great call. Thank you. Good on you, Sam. Hold the line. We're going to send you out something. Really, really great call.

Thank you. Good on you, Sam. Now, we want to chuck this open. Why are you an against the grain-er? Grain-er. Yeah, why are you running against the grain? Because obviously, Sam there, she's probably going against what a lot of people think. Yeah.

Well, you think in particular that, you know, she doesn't like fries. Cake. I know this. Ben Boyce had mentioned it before. Oh, look, it's not that I dislike cake. I just feel, I never feel like eating it. It's a chore. I'm always obligated to eat it.

I'm never like, you know, at someone's birthday, I say, oh, such and such made the cake. I'm like, oh, cake, that's great. It looks lovely. But I never feel like, oh, I need to eat this cake right now. You can have your cake and maybe not eat it. You can have Ben's bit. Because he doesn't want it. So I ain't under the hits. Rated M for mildly amusing. Jono and Ben on eat it. You can have Ben's bit because he doesn't want it. So I'm going to do the hits.

Rated M for mildly amusing. Jono and Ben on the hits. Just talking about what you're going against the grain on. Some wonderful tips coming through. 4487 Julie. I can't stand big fluffy towels. Give me a small scratchy towel any day of the week. Any day of the week.

I don't know if that's a legitimate tip. Is that legitimate, Producer Joel? That is a legitimate text. It's from Julie. It sounds like something Jono made up. It does. It does. Sorry, I don't hold any malice.

Who wants a scratchy towel? She wants an any day of the week, mate. Any day of the week. Yeah. Another one here. I hate chocolate. Given a choice, I would never eat chocolate for the rest of my life. 4487.

So what are you going against the grain on, Jodie? Why are you against the grain? I still have a Hotmail address instead of Gmail or anything like that. Hotmail? Still am, yep. Gee whiz, I didn't even know Hotmail was still available. It sure does. We've even got to a code on NZ now. Hotmail. So are you like, you know, Jodie Hotpants at Hotmail.com or something?

Pretty much, yeah. No, it's not embarrassing. I just refuse to use Gmail or Outlook. Why? Just not a fan. The thing is, once you get locked into any, I've done this, I've got a quirky sort of, you know, I've got a quirky sort of Gmail one, and I should really change it, but I haven't because that's kind of set up for everything.

Once you kind of get locked into something, you're like, oh, I'm here now. Yeah, you're stuck forever. So is that the reason for not advancing on to higher spec modifications of email, like your Gmails or your Outlooks? Yeah, kind of. So one thing, I'm locked in with my my banging and all my Netflix and everything like that. And I kind of just don't like the layout of the others. So I've got, you know, folders in there from, like, 2013.

So I can't really get rid of all that stuff. Have you got a MySpace account? No, I don't. Oh, no. Hey, don't get salty with her. You just told us you've got a Hotmail address. That was a valid question. That was a valid question. That was a valid question. No.

You think I'm a monster? She's on Bebo or something. Mate, I'm not on 1997. Yeah, I know, right? Bebo. I still have a Bebo. Oh, that's great. And to people, because I imagine when you have to tell your email address to people,

they're probably like, oh, Hotmail. Yeah, especially the.co.nz. They're like, oh, that's a thing.'re probably like, oh, hotmail. Yeah, especially the.co.nz. They're like, oh, that's a thing. You're like, yeah, it is. You hold on, Jodie. Hold on for dear life to that hotmail address. All right. Hey, well, listen, thank you very much for your call.

Well, Vic, why are you going against the grain? Ah, no, it's cold, but no rain today. No, alright. Well, Vic, why are you going against the grain?

Yes, yeah, and I don't drink coffee. You don't drink coffee? Oh, well, I imagine there's probably a few in your camp. Yeah. The thing is with coffee, when you start your coffee career, you've got to battle on through definitely at least six months. But you get over the other side and it becomes

semi-enjoyable. No, I used to make it when I was a teenager and the smell has burned into my nose. I can't drink it, I can't touch it, no. Won't go near it. Only the smell? Because I thought the smell was quite nice, but obviously in your case, you're like, uh-uh.

So, Wala, how do you wake up in the morning? You got some illegal supplements from Russia or something? What's going on? I've got three kids under five, so that's pretty much my wake-up. Thanks for your call, Vic. Appreciate that. Great text here.

I go against the grain. I don't eat butter or margarine at all on anything. I hate avocados, reads another text. Odd shoes. I like wearing them. Odd shoes. Odd shoes. Not even matching shoes.

Against the grain. So thank you very shoes. Not even matching shoes. Against the grain. So thank you very much for your calls and texts. To Hollywood producers on the search for future stars. Keep searching. There's nothing here.

Jono and Ben on the hits. Now I noticed something on the plane the other day. I was flying on the plane. You know how they have in-flight entertainment

and you can watch. Did you watch? You don't normally watch. You normally watch My Screen. No, I didn't. I don't know why. It's all there and you're like. I watch you don't normally watch you know i actually didn't no i didn't i don't know why it's all there and you're like i just like watching other people's a lot of people watching that movie uh with jennifer lopez and she and uh owen wilson has holding up a will you marry me song yeah a lot of people watching that i was just watching i

like watching it and then developing the storyline in my own head to think about what's happening because everyone's got the headphones on what i gather jlo jlo was with this you know sort of drake looking guy but uh he did the dirty on her so she's on live she's on concert singing and then no one wilson's there just as a punter holding a will you marry me sign and she said let's do it wild stuff oh really married him married him on stage this is actually what happened in the movie. This is what you've made up. Well, this is what I'm gathering. Is that pretty good, producer Joel?

Yeah, yeah. I saw the movie as well. Pretty good. Pretty accurate from you. Pretty accurate. And then I noticed there was a period there, oh, could she get back with the Drake guy? And then Owen Wilson's like, she's not for me. The person who was watching this movie was like, well, this guy stopped staring at the

screen. Is that strange, Paul, man? You could do your own thing. Looking over my shoulder. But yeah, in the end of the day, Owen that strange, Paul, man? You could do your own thing. Looking over my shoulder. In the end of the day, Owen and her, they ended up together. I get frustrated, Joe, because he will watch. We'll sit there, and I'll be watching something. And then he'll watch, and he'll go, what's happening now?

I'm like, just watch it. You can watch it. Put your headphones on. You can watch it. You can skip the part I'm watching. Not for me, man. Not for me. Why?

Why is it not for you? I love watching movies and making them up in my mind. One thing that I really did enjoy, because my son actually, Oscar, he noticed this because he was flicking through them, what he wanted to watch. He's like, look how basic these movie synopses are. So obviously it's someone's job at the airline to write a synopsis about- There's a lot going on at the airline and it's true mate I'm sure this is down the priority list

Let's not really rip them to shreds on this alright? Mate there's a pandemic going on they've got to keep everyone safe They've had two years to write a bit of movie synopsis The last thing they're worried about is movie synopsis I don't want to say the person at the airline who was writing these movie synopsis has checked out of their job, but I'll let you decide. So the first one was King Richard in the synopsis.

Richard is determined. Was that? That's it. That's it. Richard is determined. Now that was about Will Smith. That was, yeah. Venus and Serena's dad.

And he was determined. He was. So they're not wrong. They just could have done with a bit more, you know, the story of Venus and Serena's dad and he was determined so they're not wrong they just could have done with a bit more you know the story of Venus and Serena's father and the family and the Williams sisters

yeah a couple of more sentences they could have added okay next one night school a man must attend night school well at least

I mean yeah at least they didn't go for King Richard about a king called Richard because technically it wasn't a king you know and night school again

Kevin Hart it's factually does have to attend a night school yeah it doesn't even say who's in it Richard about a king Called Richard Because technically It wasn't a king You know And Night School Again Kevin Hart It's factual He does have to Attend a night school Yeah It doesn't even say Who's in it Just a man

Must attend a night school Why he has to do it Oh yeah Jurassic World 22 years after The first film Was that it Again factual

But I don't know What it Yeah the dinosaurs The continuing saga After 20 Yeah So I want to play this game with you. I want to play the airline synopsis game with you

to see if you can figure out what the movie is I'm talking about. A story about men dressed in black. Oh, men in black. One for one. He's good at this game. Big ship sinks. Oh, spoiler alert. Titanic.

Titanic. Movie about cars. Some of them are fast and others are furious. At first I thought it might be Cars, the animated movie, but now that they're furious, it's Fast and Furious. I feel like you've just made these up, but that's all right. There's a wolf on a financial street in New York. Okay, there's a year I've made these up.

Wolf on Wall Street. It's not the bottom gun. Oh, it could be top gun. Well done. You did it, though. Maybe I could get a job writing synoptuses for the others. It reminds me of when you had to do a book review at school and you hadn't read the book.

You know, and you had to hand it in by 9 o'clock.
