Kioto, welcome, it's the podcast, it's the 7th of December, we do podcast shoutouts and if you'd like a podcast shoutout just text your name and your podcast, if you're listening to the Jono and Ben podcast, 4487. Now we got a message through from Estelle who does a great job on the night show here on The Hits and she sent us a message to our email yesterday and I love the fact that it was sent to both of us, but Jono, you kind of skimmed over the top part of the email and didn't read the full thing. I didn't, no. And the last sentence is pivotal. It's a lovely message, and we really do appreciate it. It's from Leonie, who listens to the podcast. She said it's been really great,

helping to bring some fun and enjoyment. She takes it with her when she goes away on holiday. She listens to a whole lot, which is awesome. Yeah, it is awesome. And she said, I saw you guys in Fiji, both Ben and I were in Fiji earlier this year. And she said, I love Ben's banana and pyjama swimming dogs. So did you get to any of this? Yeah, I saw the togs and I kind of faded out of the message then.

I was like, okay, cool. I get the idea. I've taken the gratitude for the podcast. Yeah, which is lovely lovely my ego's full the cup's full there and I didn't need to read the remainder of the message

however the remainder of the message was the pivotal part particularly for me yeah now we do you want do we address it now

yeah address it now because then we'll get her version of events so she said loved Ben's banana and pyjamas swimming togs I do have swimming togs with bananas all over them.

And then it said, and Jono clipping his toenails by the pool. Not so cool. That's what she wrote. And she said, I did consider picking them up and seeing if there's anything worth anything. I think I'd get anything on Trade Me, but I'm not sure if I'd get them through Customs. Love you guys. Keep up the work. So thank you, Leonie.

What a wonderful message and thank you for providing us with some great great insight to john at prior like oh like we came in this morning and i was like to sit to produce a b-ups did you read that email he's like yeah the toenails by the pool who does that i can't even remember doing it are you sure I'm still like I won't lie you know full transparency it's something I probably would do

but I can't remember doing it and like I said Ben that whole week it was very carefully scientifically balancing alcohol levels so I might have gone

you know three or four in the afternoon hey I looked out because you know you look down when you're on holiday you see your feet a bit more yeah you got they need a chop oh because we're going from a new zealand winter into a summertime so you're like oh jandals wearing the trim and her daughter actually alerted uh her to it it sounded like the whole pool around the whole

pool everyone was waiting so we get into God. Is that guy cutting his toe? So we get into some stories of what you've seen Jono Pryor doing. And if you want a shout-out for our podcast, you can text us 4487 as well or put a message, DM us on the Hits Breakfast on Instagram or Facebook as well, and we can give you a shout-out at the start of the podcast. We appreciate everyone listening who's listening, even if they do drop Jono in it. Have a great day. Enjoy the party.

We just took on about Uber, how when you take the Uber, you get a rating. And Jono's got quite a slightly more lower one than the rest of us, and it's baffling him. It is baffling. You don't really go out much either, so you're not using it much either. Again, look, generally the times I take him, I go from my house to the airport for work. And I'm pretty, I'd like to think well, behave well.

But as you say, mate, come on a little chatty. Yeah, because you're not really taking it. You're not really going out on a Friday, Saturday night, like boozed or anything like that. No. I'm not like producer Joel. He came in a couple of weeks ago. Oh, guys, big weekend.

Soiled an Uber. He's just dealing with a bit of a fallout. Was that the word? Yeah, he texted you, dealing with a bit of a fallout. Was that the word? Yeah, he texts you, dealing with a bit of a fallout. So they were soiled an Uber. It was actually an outside of the Uber, so no dramas. Was whatever you did on the Uber in some form? Yeah, and it wasn't actually my account, so no dramas.

But we are after the lowest Uber rating. What did you do? How do you get it? And do they stop coming to pick you up is the question. Nick, you're on from Christchurch stop coming to pick you up is the question. Nick, you're on from Christchurch. Good to have you on at 6.13 in the morning, mate. That's what happens when you're out driving around doing deliveries.

Not an Uber driver. No, no, no. What are you sitting on, Nick? What am I sitting on? 0.5. 0.5? 0.5? Yeah, no, I don't use them very often. It was only for a milkshake, and I went for it again, and they didn't bring it that time,

so yeah, I just left it alone. I think I may have upset them a little bit. Oh, so was this an Uber Eats scenario? Yeah, yeah. Ah, so you've had one. You only used it once. It was a bad transaction on your behalf. So do they come and get

you now or are you blacklisted? I can't say I've used them in the last six months. Oh, right. You've gone gun shy. You're embarrassed of your rating. I know what you mean. You don't want to hop into a cab, an Uber with a... They know you're going to be trouble, don't they?

You don't want to jump in there and have that awkward conversation. No, fair enough. Also, someone's texting 4487, got on a 3.2. 3.2. Had an argument with the Uber driver. They wield a lot of power, don't they? Well, they do it. If they're having a bad day, Nick, well done.

We're going to get you a ham from Farmland Foods, buddy. Every caller on here gets a ham. We make their dreams come true with ham. That's right. Thank you very much. Have a great day. Scrolling through your feed. Forget hard-hitting news.

This is a light spanking. Ben, what's happening? Well, Indonesia, their parliament approved a new criminal law yesterday. So it bans sex outside of marriage with a punishment of up to one year in jail. You'd be happy with this? Your far-right beliefs? This is for tourists. This is for people that live there.

Yeah, so if you're caught, you know, doing the thing outside of marriage, you could be slapped with one year in jail over there. They've also banned insulting the president, spreading views against what the state think, and staging protests. But yeah, it seems like a pretty backwards sort of move to be making over there. How are you policing it, though? That's my question.

Yeah. How are they going to catch you with Amanda doing what you do? How does that happen? I'm sorry. I'm sorry I painted that. You know? Well, yeah. Maybe they undercover stings or something.

GoPros in bedrooms? Yeah. Maybe it's a setup. Maybe people go over there and like, oh, this looks like it's going somewhere, and then it's like, you know, like... They take things pretty seriously over in Indonesia. You don't mess around in Indonesia, mate.

It's not going to come in for three years. Oh, they can get it all out of your system now. Yeah, you go over there if you're in a relationship that you're not married, or if you want to go hook up, you can do it in the next three years. Or maybe if you've been married for a long time. It's not going to happen anyway.

Currently they ban adultery, but not premarital sex. So there you go. And Lord of the Rings fans, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Hobbit and also the fact that everyone's talking about Middle Earth again after The Rings of Power, the new Amazon TV series,

they've now opened up an Airbnb so you can stay inside the Hobbit holes. One of the Hobbit holes there at Matamata, which is pretty cool. I've never been there. That's really cool, actually. Yeah, I've heard good things about it. I really enjoyed it. The kids and I went and had a wander around there. It was cool.

And they hadn't seen the movie. Do you have to be a full-blown nerd to stay the night there? Oh, well, yeah. You're hitting big nerdy status, aren't you? You're probably right. I mean, would you take the family to a hobbit hole? I know you've gone through and seen the attraction. Oh, look, I would, like, yeah.

Be honest, be honest. I would stay. Are you a fan that would stay the night there with your family? Oh, like, is it purchased? No. Hashtag gifted? But gifted, absolutely, absolutely. Check a couple of posts up on Inst purchased? No. Hashtag gifted. But gifted, absolutely.

Absolutely. I love it. That'd be cool. I mean, many people all around the world will want to go and do this. Two night stays, up to four guests.

It's all through Airbnb, which is pretty incredible if you, because you know, you talk to people like Andy Samberg from Brooklyn Nine-Nine, they're people that are obsessed.

He's one of them. He's obsessed with Lord of the Rings. He's like, all I want to do in life is get to Matter Matter. Yeah. That's his one goal. Yeah. I know it's all of them. Obsessed with Lord of the Rings. He's like, all I want to do in life is get to Matter Matter. Yeah. That's his one goal.

I know it's all of our goals to try and avoid it. No, mate. But he wants to come there and stay there for a couple of weeks. And that you've really got to give credit to Peter Jackson for creating something. Yeah. Oh, J.R.R. Tolkien probably did the heavy lifting. Yeah. But creating something for this country that is still going on

we're still reaping the benefits of it financially over 20 years later it's a real shame that the next series of the Amazon series is not going to be filmed in New Zealand because it's been part of the South thing you know where's it going to be filmed? In Bali but they can't have sex before marriage so the whole storyline's

going to change The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. A story out of New Delhi. Two identical twins married the same man. It made world news. Got a lot of coverage on social media that the identical twins married the same man. But now it's caught the attention of the police

who have charged him with bigamy, which is illegal, and he could be going to jail for seven years. Hey, harsh sentence sentence isn't it just for mary well mate i've seen the photo of the guy and he's standing with his his two brides and he looks almost a bit confused in the photo as if he was dating one of them and then maybe accidentally started dating another one and they both turned up at the altar on the wedding day he kind of looks a little bamboozled, doesn't he? Yeah. Poor chap. But what?

So bigamy is the offence of being married already and then marrying someone else. I guess technically you're right, because we would have the first marriage and then it'd be like, well, I do. And they're like, uh-uh, uh-uh, you're already married just moments ago.

Can you not remember, mate? 30 seconds ago you said i do yeah but then is he now polygamy when you're married to or you're with multiple people i don't know it's very confusing sounds like a lot of administration for me personally but um you know some countries five countries in the world where women can be married to two or more men. Palandry, it's called. It happens quite a lot. But could you marry a set of twins, Ben? Let's just take your current situation out of there.

Well, that's a very hard time. And I don't know why. It doesn't seem like a thing that should be illegal. Well, you know, I don't know if it's illegal. I mean, as I say, and you mock me all the time, if you're not hurting anyone and everyone's, you's... Who are we to judge anyone else's relationships? Well, the law is in this case. Yeah, I guess in this case. The law is there to judge.

Yeah, but who am I to judge? I'm just like, if they're all happy, if that's what they want to do, life's short, live your life. Yeah, Pinky and Rinky are their names. Right. So, would you marry a set of twins? Amanda's not in the equation. You've met. Oh, look, I don't know.

Is it like, what's the legality? Oh, you can if you want. Oh, yeah, if I want. As I said, if this was what I really wanted to do, then why not? You know? And if I was an identical twin and someone wanted to marry me, then that's sweet. As long as it works for. Like, I don't want to judge.

Yeah. Oh, don't you? I don't know if I'll get my own life sorted, let alone judging other people's lives. Yeah, no, I'm, as long as it works for. Like, I don't want to judge. Oh, don't you? I've had enough of my own life, sort of, let alone judging other people's lives. Yeah, no, I'm with you. I'm with you. Too much judgment nowadays. Although, if you did fall in love with one person, and then you found out there was another one, identically the same, you're like, buying yourself insurance, I've got to, you know.

Well, does it work like that, though? I don't know if it does. Maybe. Well, you've got two. Imagine if there was another Amanda. But you're calling it personality. It's not all about looks, Jono. Don't be so superficial.

It's the personality, you know. Okay, that makes up the whole, not just the, you know. I'm all about looks. The looks part. Have you seen me? That's what I was going to say. Have you seen me? Of course I'm all about looks.

Yeah, like, you know, that's the other person. It's not personality. Yeah. Exactly the same. Wouldn't it about locks. Yeah, like, you know, that's the other person who's not personality exactly the same. Wouldn't it be great if you found Amanda, your wife, and then you're like, oh, there's another Amanda.

Same personality? Yeah, same. And locks. Because that's what makes up the whole of the person. Correct. Wouldn't that be good though? Not just like,

oh, I got insurance because this person looks exactly like them. Not a Mazda familiar. You know? Okay, I'll end with this. Let's open this up. Are you a twin?

Yes or no? Do you love twinning? Are there huge advantages or disadvantages? You can text us 24487. All right. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Just talking about a new story out of India where two identical twins,

they got married to the same person. And he's been charged, well, potentially charged with bigamy now, their husband. Seven years in jail is the maximum penalty for that. Bigamy is kind of someone who likes the idea of marriage, but they're a little indecisive. So we're just talking, are you a twin? Are there advantages, disadvantages?

Twin in, hashtag twin in this morning. Kendall, you're a twin. Yes, I sure am, and I could take up so much of your time with the stories. No, well, listen, we've got a lot of time for you to take up. We're on till nine, baby. Keep talking. Good thing or a bad thing? I mean, you probably don't know any different,

but would you recommend it to other people? I know you had no choice in it. I would definitely recommend it. I don't know if my mum would. But I have so many good stories. So our dad gets us confused. Oh, really? And he made you.

Yeah. I don't know if it's more of a tongue-tie thing. So once he got a present for me, but he was telling me all about it, thinking I was my sister. So I'm surprised i knew what it was because you could you could fill in for each other you know any work assignments school projects or field trips you didn't want to go on we were in a class of the same class for lots of things so it was pretty hard but we did swap places and desks and clothing and name tags and you name it, we've swapped it. And a lot of people don't even realise.

But once you get to know us, it is easier to tell us apart. Now, do you have identical sort of hairstyles as well? Because I always wondered that about twins. I mean, you could change up your hairstyle from your sister. We do actually have really similar hair. We've actually just asked her to be in a TV commercial last year, and the only thing was they just put a couple of lighter blonde streaks in my hair just to completely match it, just to make sure we were even.

What TV commercial were you on? It was the Get the Road Toll to Zero for car crashes, and we were the twins coming out the bonnet of the car. I know the ad. And it's still that hope that whole concept of get the road toll to zero i don't know how we're meant to do it but the ad's awesome so you you are identical do you sound the same um i don't hear it and i don't think my husbands do but um i think there must be a slight difference but obviously we do say

things at the same time so you can't really tell did you do you find it like unusual that someone else in the world it looks so similar to you do you do you get over that well actually i can't look at myself so when i'm looking unless you're in a mirror so i only see here i don't look at the two of us like everyone else sees the two of us together so it's kind of just normal for me well you don't need to take a mirror you can just look at the person next to you that is the huge advantage exactly. It's a huge advantage. If you want to try an adventurous hair cut or thing, you get your sister to pull it off. You're like, oh, didn't pull it off.

She did that to me. She did that to me. She wanted me to get a fringe because she wanted to see what she would look like. So she talked me into it a little close. And it didn't really suit me. So she's like, no, I'm not getting that done now. Good play, good play. Do you have the same taste in people that know, people that you're attracted to?

Oh, no, I don't think her husband's attractive. That's where it's... Does he? No, let's not go there. Let's not go there. It's different for them. Oh, yeah.

They'll be like, ooh, ooh. Okay, no, let's not go into there. We're going to cause a family rift. We're going to get you a ham for Christmas, though. We're going to send one your way

so you can enjoy that with your sister or by yourself, whatever you want. That's it. Thanks to send one your way so you can enjoy that with your sister or by yourself whatever you want thanks to Farmland Foods. Thank you so much I really appreciate it. Christmas not too far away it is the 7th of December this year has

really really flown by hasn't it? It has yeah we always say that and I feel like it's a cliche every time we bring it up but but it's factual, Ben. I feel like more than any other year for some reason for me. It's suddenly just like, oh, we're a couple of weeks out for Christmas. Because I feel like we started the year in a lockdown. Am I correct?

Or some form of. We were trying to remember that before. It felt like some sort of form of picnics without picnics. There's all sorts of weird stuff. But that felt like that was last year to me. But that was this year. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't. I don't know. Maybe it's gone quicker because we've's all sorts of weird stuff. But that felt like that was last year to me. But that was this year. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't.

I don't know. Maybe it's gone quicker because we've had different phases of the year. Different alert levels make the years go quicker. As soon as you say alert levels, it just makes me shudder as well, right? Time flies when you've got alert levels, baby. Actually, no, it did the opposite when you're in the middle of them. I'm glad we're past that. But we have opened up Santa's Little Helpers line.

We're the Little Helpers, by the way. In stature, Ben, his bony little frame, and my private parts. That's why we're helping out. And if you have been listening over the last couple of days, we started off with kids. What are the kids wanting for Christmas? Yeah, with the Santa's Little Helper line,

Romy, you're on from Wairarapa. You're 14 years old. What are the new teens wanting this Christmas? Well, personally, I want some new Nike slides or maybe some Crocs even. Yeah, a lot of the Crocs came up quite a bit, didn't it? Yeah, a few calls for Crocs for the kids. And also yesterday, mums, what are they wanting?

Amber, what would you like? Well, if Santa's going to be good to me this year, I'd really fancy a new pair of R.M. William boots. Oh, you sound like Producer Humphrey's dream wife. Although I don't know that my 17-month-old will be able to afford them. So that's because he's from Fairleigh, and he likes a pair of working boots, Producer Humphrey. But I wouldn't say every mum wants a pair of R.M.

Like, if we're going to zero in on one Joel maybe Ari and William's boots for all mums yeah I don't know if you know like Amanda my wife I don't know if she's going to come and

I could try give it a go so I heard on the radio the hits breakfast that's what they said all mums wanted

pair of bloody working boots alright so let's look at the dads right now there was some other options sorry before we move on for

mums there was perfumes wine tours yeah things likeums, there was perfumes. Wine tours. Yeah, things like that. So there was other suggestions. Not just boot focus if you've just joined the program today. But we're going to focus on dads today. And then we're going to cover it off for the rest of the week.

Don't worry, no demographics are going to be left alone. We'll have second cousins, stepdads, deadbeat dads, everything. We're going to cover them all off. Mums who are no longer there But we're just going to focus on Present fathers And what they're wanting In terms of a present

Now you're a dad Ben Talk to me Sweet cheeks Well look I'm one of these people That love a voucher Like if I think

I think all the thought Has gone into a voucher Because I get to spend it On whatever I want I don't need to fake Oh this is great And never use the gift. Prezi card?

Oh, love it. Now you're talking. I always forget that I've got them though. You know, because you put them in the drawer and then they expire quite quickly, don't they, the Prezi cards? You need to get onto it.

You need to get in there and go and spend it. So that's my favourite thing is just to get a voucher. I know people are like, oh, it's not personable, but when people do make an effort sometimes, they mess up.

You know what I want for Christmas? Sleep. You sleep more than anyone else during the day that I know. And for some reason, this is on you, Pryor, you get up way earlier than, like two hours earlier than anyone else on the show. That's on you. I want more sleep. Well, get up later. You can get

two hours more sleep every night if you get up at like 4.45. Well, give me some sleep for Christmas. Okay, hold on. Okay, that's all I ask for. A quiet room, I'll pull the shades. Thank you. You can watch me and then wake me up a few hours later.

Okay, I won't hold the hits telephone number. If you're a father, what are you wanting? The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. We're looking at different sections of what they want for Christmas today, and today it's all about the dads. Yeah, that's right. And as long as the history, the gift-giving history books can remember, we have handed over underwear and socks, haven't we?

Yeah. Sometimes you'll get underwear on its own. Sometimes you'll get socks on its own. Sometimes the dad, the humble New Zealand dad, will get underwear and socks as a combo as well. And every year they put on an Academy Award winning performance, don't they? Like it's the first time they've ever received a pair of underpants or socks. Well done to all the dads out there. Ben, you just said before you would like a voucher, just a gift card voucher.

Yeah, I'd be happy with anything. We've got a wonderful relationship. We drew a line in the sand from the get-go. No present giving. And I also like like that i respect that as well like if yeah if someone doesn't want to if someone goes hey i was going to buy you a present uh but i'm not and you don't need to buy me one and then i'm like great that's a great that's a great relationship that's a i would just leave out the part of i was going to buy you a present but i'm not i just go hey why don't we not buy well yeah i did think about it but I thought no I don't want to waste any money let's just cancel each

other out you you keep whatever you want to do your cost of living you know it's tough out there because we have worked with uh a few present givers over the years and it's great I love it but there's once the presents handed over the obligations. You know, and it starts just a snowball of present giving. And presents that you're like, ugh. Filler presents. Okay, let's get the dads

on here this morning. What are the fathers wanting? Janae, you're on from Hamilton. Morning, guys. How are you doing? Oh, we're doing well, Janae.

What are you wanting for Christmas? Tell it all. Guys, I have a very big fetish for watches. A watch fetish? Okay, I thought it was interesting to

see where that was going. I've probably got about 50 or 60 of them ranging from about $10 up to $10,000. Whoa! He's a watch guy. You'd love a watch for Christmas, Jene. Yeah, definitely, mate. Definitely. I've got from fossils to Apple watches to Garmin watches to the $5, $10 watches.

He's got it all. You name it, I have them. What's the time? You can buy me a watch for Christmas, birthday, Father's Day, Mother's Day. Any day, you can buy me a watch. He'll take a watch. You've really nailed your foot to the floor on watches. Like changing batteries, I imagine, would be a nightmare for you?

Yeah, it is a bit of a nightmare, but yeah. Do you wear them all? Would you rotate them? Yeah, I do. I rotate them, yeah. Jeez, you've almost got one for an entire six-month period. That's incredible. And, Janay, the watch for 2022.

What's your dream watch? Well, my dream watch was the Garmin. The Phoenix 6, which I did get. I don't know what that means, but it sounds... It sounds impressive.

Anything with Phoenix attached to it. Roast with the ashes. We're going to give you a ham thanks to Farmland Foods. Enjoy that. Merry Christmas. Cool.

Thanks, mate. Next caller, Matt. You're on from Waihei. Dads, Merry Christmas. Cool. Thanks, mate. Next caller, Matt. You're on from Waihei. Dads, it's the Santa's little helper line. What are the dads wanting this Christmas? Morning, team. How are we?

What are you? We're doing well. Matty, what are you after for Christmas, buddy? Well, I've entered my early 30s, so I've done the homebrew. I've done the ground, the bed, and the hair. So next up, smoking meat. Smoking meat.

It's a slow transformation into a charcoal barbie. Oh yeah, a smoker. Now there are some very impressive people with beards and craft beards cooking meat. How are your barbecue skills? They're okay, but there's room for improvement. Yeah, right. You're ready to level up into a middle-aged

hipster. I love it, Matt. And why he can get Matty a smoker. Tracy joins us from Stratford. You've had the inside word on your hubby, Matt. All right. And why he can get Maddy a smoker. We'll go Tracy joins us from Stratford. You've had the inside word on your hubby, what he's after. Yes, he really wants a chainsaw, but I don't think he'll be getting one. He got me one for Christmas about five years ago. What a wonderful gift he got you. And have you cut down trees with it?

I couldn't even lift it. I do love a gift that is handed over which is clearly not for the person. It's clearly for the purchaser. Yes, he's very happy with his chainsaw he bought. Yeah, so your chainsaw's run out of steam. He needs

another chainsaw. Yes, he does. Alright, well Tracy, he can use that chainsaw to carve some ham because you've got a free ham. Thank you so much. No worries because you've got a free ham. No worries, we've got plenty more hams to give away. Thanks to Farmland Foods. All morning, whoever gets on the air on 0800 The Hits. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast.

I always find this really interesting. Around about this time of year, they release the most searched things that Kiwis have looked at on Google. I also find it quite frightening that they know all the things that everyone's been Googling. Yeah, yeah. They search Ben Boyce's Google history, how to get back on TV, question mark. Ben Boyce hunk, question mark. Other sensitive information.

But they haven't released that. No, they haven't. No. Thank God. Or mine. Dear God, I wouldn't wish that upon my worst enemy. But there's some interesting categories in the most Googled. Obviously the most Googled

New Zealander I found quite interesting. The most Googled New Zealander of all time this year was Clark Gayford. Now I can only assume people would be Googling Clark because they're huge fans of Moving House.

The show where they take the houses and trucks another big show but we actually spoke to Clark and he was telling us a wonderful story at the start of the day he misheard my name as Mark and he was calling me Mark all day

and I didn't really care, I hadn't really corrected him and he saw what was going on and he grabbed me and he held my head above the surface as I came back around. And as I came back around, all I remember is this large New A.M. guy staring me in the face going, Mark, Mark, wake up, Mark. Wake up, Mark. We can't lose you, Mark.

That was when he was filming Fish of the Day, so that's maybe why people... He almost died in that situation underwater, right? Diving. So maybe that's why people went to Google Club. They thought his name was Mark. Who else on the most popular list there? Well, Johnny Depp, where far as international celebrities go. Will Smith and the Will Smith slap was up there from the Oscars.

All people who would probably rather not be on the most Googled search list if they had a choice. Thor Love and Thunder was the most googled movie in New Zealand. She's stronger than both of us. Need to stop her now. I'm not a queen or a monster. I'm the goddess of death. You're just the worst. And also the overall

one, which I found interesting. Wordle. Yeah. The most googled thing overall. And then in the games category, I think it goes Wordle, Quirtle, Hurdle. It had a dill at the end of it. It was a squittle, fiddle, diddle. It was all in there. Locations of interest is still very highly Googled. I guess more at the start of the year than the end of the year, you'd say. The war on Ukraine was in there. But yeah, and a lot of recipes. We still love to Google recipes, don't we, in New Zealand?

One of my favorite categories, and I'm glad they released this information, this intel, the hotly contested most Googled savory recipes category. Now, guacamole has beaten out tomato relish and bolognese to claim the top spot this year. Well, that's probably one of those things you Google every time you make a guacamole.

I've never Googled how to make a guacamole. Have you not? No. I like looking at things. I've had to add in different things into it. Well, you're responsible for this, mate. I'm more of a Google the tomato relish guy. I'm upset at the second placing,

but yeah, that's the most Googled stuff. And it's just frightening to know how much information they have on all of us. Yeah. Don't think about it too hard. No. And it's a good sign that we all probably need to get outside a bit more and enjoy life.

Last night, Ben, I mentioned that I was going to my son's school assembly, school end of year awards assembly and I'd heard wild rumours from people who'd previously gone, Joel, producer Joel, you went to the school. Yeah, great school.

It is a fantastic school. And you said how long the end of year thing I had to look forward to was? You get a four or five hours sometimes if you're lucky. Four or five, what? There's 1,400 boys, I think, at the school? Yeah, so I was going into this going, gee whiz, this is going to be a four to five hour bonanza. And you know when sometimes you're in something and you're halfway through, you're like, well, maybe this is going to be a four to five hour bonanza. And you know when you're sometimes you're in something and you're halfway through, you're like,

well, maybe this is how it ends. Maybe I'm never going to escape. Did you sleep? On honesty at all? That was another grave concern. Very sleepy conditions for sleepy Jono. I bet you did. But I went a lot.

He hasn't answered the question, so he definitely did. There were a couple of head rocks, you know, where you lose control of your head and it dips down. He definitely fell asleep. A couple of those. A couple of those. But I've got another idea. I mentioned the other day about reformatting the school assembly

where you, boof, through all the awards, at the end of the night you just have one big applause. They actually had a really good system. They did it in groups. Get the group up there and, at the end of the night, you just have one big applause. They actually had a really good system. They did it in groups. Get the group up there and applause at the end of the group. They held them. They actually had them standing side of stage, ready to go.

There was no awkward walk up. They had trimmed down some time. Still, they took over three hours? Yeah, three hours or so. But my son got an award. That was a lovely moment. I'm not much one for fanfare and, you know, official ceremonies. But they had the whole school doing a haka.

And it sent shivers up my spine. The whole school. Yeah, 1,500 boys doing the haka. Pretty powerful stuff. yeah no it was very powerful but my other suggestion that i'd like to make to uh to the schools across new zealand is what you could do is if you've got a long one just tell parents the period where their child might be getting awarded then what you do is you have a revolving cast of parents coming in they sit down for 10 minutes boom boom boom the good thing about this and then they leave okay then then the next lot of 10 periods go but the good thing about this is the intensity levels stay high yeah you're not fading on energy because you've just got a new

10 minute block every you know it's true everybody's like yeah that's my kid you know they could almost bring the parents on as they bring the kids on to stay so they come they always sit down bring the kids on then they just keep the cars running out the other door like you click your kid on your way out away you go just keep the energy because then sometimes by the end of the night you find yourself half-heartedly sort of smacking your hand on your thigh yeah you know for for applause. Now, Producer Joel, you said your parents, by the end of your school career, didn't even turn up. Yeah, the great thing about, I'm not sure if it's still the same,

but you'd find out as soon as you get there if you're getting an award or not. My parents would be waiting in the car, just be like, flick me a text. If you're going to get one, let me know. If not, we'll go home and you can find your own way home at 12 o'clock. Fair enough, I'm going to say.

Yeah, that's a good way to run it too. Yeah. Do we bother coming in or not? Three hours of watching other children get in the wards and our disappointing son didn't even get on stage. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Let's go. Jono and Ben with five words for 5K.

Those are the two options in this game.

and a bit of an unsettled week as well. It seems like it's sunny one day and then shocking the next. It always gets sticky and humid and wet before Christmas, though, doesn't it? Then it starts Jan onwards. Then we kind of battle our way through Jan, couple of shaky days, but Feb. We should have our holidays in Feb. Yeah? Yeah, you're right actually.

We'll get Cindy onto that one, shall we? Oh, while she's still there. Hey, I don't know, that was unnecessarily... Finally we know Ben's political allegiance. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying why I'm voting.

He's voting act. No, I'm not saying that at all. I just, hey, look, maybe just judging on the polls this week, you know. Yeah, things are looking good. It's a little unsettled, not just in the weather department as well. It would be so disheartening too if you're the Labour Party, wouldn't you? It's kind of like my hair. It's just slowly sort of running

out of steam. They had a good run though, didn't they? They had a good run. They did a great run. They did some stuff too, but then you're like, oh, it's 12 months away. Why don't we just, hey, we'll hand it over to you now. We'll come back in a couple of years. Save us some debates and stress, but Friday we need to do the big draw for our Heartland Chips

which have been out for a couple of months. Maple, bacon, sour cream and chives, salt and vinegar. One flavor, all encapsulated into one chip. That still blows people's minds. They're like, which flavor is this bag? And you're like, no, no, no, mate. Shush your sweet lips. You know, people are like, how did you come up with the flavor?

And to be honest, we didn't. No, this is what I've been carrying around a chip load of guilt, Ben. Because people come up, I love your chips. Love love you how'd you come up with the flavor and if we want to pull back the curtain we wanted to do well i wanted to do an all-day breakfast flavor then the fine taste engineers at heartland said this is horrific they wouldn't even send it up to us they said we tried it we can't even send it people want an all-day breakfast they're not going to look for it in a chip. But then they sent up a little bag, and they were like, try this.

And that was the chips that are out there right now that's out of this world flavor. And we're like, damn, these are good. We'll put our faces to these. These look amazing. We've been taking all the gratitude. Oh, listen. And these chips have changed lives, saved marriages, cured the cost of living. They've done it all.

And now you can win $10,000. If you have purchased a bag of the chips, there's a QR code on there. You've got to scan that. Take a photo, a chip pic and send it to us. Because on Friday it all ends, Ben. The chips expire. Well, no, I don't know if the chips have expired, but we're giving away

$10,000 for, I think someone's randomly selected from all the photos that have been sent in to win $10,000 on Friday Mmm, so you're gonna be doing that Friday make sure you get I went to pack and save the other night as We've always been both you and me have been doing perusing the trip chip I'll sort of hanging around like a pest or a shoplifter and there's still a few bags on the shelf Yeah, that concerns me as a chip peddler. It doesn't concern you

Yeah, it does. I love seeing an empty shelf. But then they're like, no, we've got 300 boxes on top. Snap them up. Get in quick. We've got 10 grand for your Friday. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. People come into New Zealand, big weekend.

Obviously, Guns N' Roses on Saturday. Jack Johnson on Saturday. But today was the day Justin Bieber was meant to be in the country. He was meant to be playing tonight. I popped up my calendar and I was like, oh, that's not happening anymore. Well, because you, when we came out of the alert levels and lockdown and concerts were coming up, you went concert ticket crazy. I did, I did.

And you pulled me aside and you said, I've gone mad, I've gone mad. And you were the only person, I think, out of the 40,000 people that bought Justin Bieber tickets that were happy that he cancelled. Just because I had to sell some tickets because I was like I've bought too many you know cost of living and all that so stuff is getting out so I'm like yeah I'm pulling back on tickets. So this would have been a costly day for you but it's turned out to be another normal Wednesday. Now speaking of you well it wasn't a normal Tuesday that's for sure because we went along to do a little bit of filming for something we were doing for the Hits radio station yesterday.

And, well, you explain. Well, I turned up on time. Yeah, great. And the wonderful makeup lady said, I'll put some powder on that gigantic egg of a head you have. Which happens. Everyone wants their powder on. This is after she's like, oh, that needs sunscreen.

She got doused in sunscreen, rubbed on some SPF 82. And then she noticed something. She's like, oh, goodness me. Not again. And I said, what do you mean, not again? She's like, your eyebrows. I was like, what's wrong with your eyebrows?

She's like, they're longer than lassoos. You could lasso things with that eyebrow. She trimmed my eyebrows six months earlier when we were doing the Masked Singer. And she's like, you've let them get wayward. And to be honest, my eyebrows,

for many years, they were a tight-knit group, weren't they? They played the game, they were a tight-knit group, but now they've kind of gone all their separate ways, like One Direction. On my eyebrows at some stage we were in One Direction,

then they said, no, we're going to do solo careers, and now they're sort of growing long and heading off on different paths in life. Right, yeah. But you decided to, she got the mini scissors out. This was a public place. This was next to a beautiful pond. Lots of people walking by. And so I got out the phone and I filmed what was going on.

What's going on? Well, I've been told my eyebrows are out of control. Out of control. Have you not had them done since the last time I did them? It's the only hair he's got. Look at that. It's the only hair he's got. He likes to brush it in the morning.

Look at that. I was hoping to grow them long enough. Are you climbing them? Yeah. Look. Oh, I nearly got the right one. This is when you've officially reached old man. When someone has to cut your eyebrows.

Does it get any lower? I've got some air hairs too. So there you go. So this is a public setting. John O'Prior in a public setting. Am I going to go bush with it? Where am I going to do it? I thought, do you notice it at home?

no because they're kind of also we mentioned the Labour Party is slowly fading away my eyebrows are doing the same, so I don't really notice them or pay much attention to them so thanks, I've made an appointment in six months time

your regular eyebrow trim it's the only haircut I can get. Yeah. So I wanted to know this morning, oh, 800 the hits, we have Farmland Foods hams up for grabs.

Everyone gets on the air. What have you seen Jono do in public? Oh, don't do this. Don't do this. Like, did you witness him getting his eyebrows done yesterday?

Did you witness him doing something in the supermarket? Oh, don't. You know, whatever it is. I'm a shocking driver. Like, I would cut people off. There's plenty of options? Oh, don't. You know, whatever it is. I'm a shocking driver.

I would cut people off. There's plenty of options. Yeah, don't. Yeah. So, 0800 The Hits. What have you seen Jono pride do? You know what disturbs me is the phones are full already. I don't know if it's for the ham or my terrible pre-human being. We'll wade through the truths and the lies next.

The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. What have you seen Jono do in public? After yesterday I witnessed you getting your eyebrows trimmed. Now I'm brow beaten, thanks to you. Yeah, my eyebrows. Highbrow comedy, though, for the first time we get to say. That's why you keep them, though, just so you can say we do highbrow comedy.

That's right, yeah. But a lot of them, they sort of look like, you know, those brows are high. But they dangle down like strings, don't they? Yeah, they have a comb over. Just keep growing them and whip them over the top. Leonie's on R800. I can't wait to go to these calls.

Good morning. Hello, how are you? Good, we're doing all right. Now, we wanted to know this morning, what have you seen Jono do in public? And apparently you saw Jono do something. Hold on, hold on. Can we just get the setting?

Where are we talking? On holiday, right? Yeah, we're in Fiji by the pool. So Jono, were you or were you not in Fiji a few months ago? I was there, you were there. Well, I don't know. Confirm or deny once I know what the story is and I'll tell you if I was there or not.

So what things do you remember about seeing any of us in Fiji, Leonie? Well, you've been wearing like banana and pyjama kind of swimming toes or something like that. I do have some

toes with bananas on them. And he's got a Toy Story 4 backpack. He's got little mini figurines. That sounds like something. Yeah, okay, that's true. Okay, what about Jono?

And then Jono may have been clipping his toenails by the pool. By the pool? What? By the pool? No I didn't. What? No Jono. I must admit it wasn't me that seen it I was um you guys know what I'm talking about we're talking about that infinity pool down the end. Yeah. And I was planning to meet my family there, and my daughter actually texted me and said, don't come down yet, John. I was clipping his toenails by the pool. They know that I hate toenails.

Why was he clipping his toenails by the pool? Ew, monster. Why did, what? I can't remember. Well, that clearly wasn't me. I wasn't there. You were. I did ask the girls, did he pick them up?

And they said, no, he just got up and walked away. Jono, Jono. Oh, it's a new low even for you, mate. I can't remember that. He's probably eight Heineken's days. I was about to say, yeah. I was in the middle of balancing quite a complex drinking arrangement every day there.

Oh, my goodness. So maybe at some point I thought it was a good idea to come and eat it. I thought these stories were going to be made up, but this is like a genuine one. Leone, we're going to hook you up with a Christmas ham for Christmas. Thank you so much for dropping Jono in it. Leone, with all these comms going on behind my background poolside. Don't come in now.

He's clipping his toenails. We were generally trying to avoid you guys to give you some peace on your holiday, but honestly, you know, like clipping your toenails and stuff. What a cretin. Enjoy your Christmas ham, all right? Thank you so much. See you. See you, mate.

There's text coming through as well. Last week at the Kiwi Kids Sweet Bix Triathlon, I saw Jono and Ben handing out medals. Jono's got all his medals knotted up, and I saw him trying to unknot them, swearing at himself. In front of the kids as well. Not in front of the kids. It's a hit.

She got Jono in bed. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, my daughter Indy, she's got an iPad, as a lot of kids have around the country. And as parents, I don't know if you're the same, Jono, but you like to cut down on the device time. You don't want devices, you know, despite the fact that I'm probably on my phone way too much.

And speaking honestly, I have periods of it. Get off your device, and then I check out. I'm like, the device becomes the best parenting tool you can have. It can, yeah. You can use it to its advantage. We all hate on the devices, but chuck an iPad in the hand for a few hours, mate. Well, my wife is now, you know,

she's like, why don't we do no devices in their room? So if you want to, you know, use a device, you have to go, okay, with us, and you use it out in the lounge, or we have to allow it. Didn't you have a device-free day as well? You've gone through the... Yeah, we've gone through the range of devices do you still through do device free device free

weekends from time to time i'm not part of that i refuse to be part of that i like looking at emails and instagram exactly uh but you see like well there's two devices not in your room so if you want to be out there even if you're watching disney plus or youtube whatever has to be in the lounge uh so no devices in room and so I'm like yeah okay cool I'll go along with that that's fine if you want this to happen but then the other day I walked past because my daughter only likes to use her device when she's tidying her room she'll have a show on Disney Plus or something like that or she's making the bed she's tidying her drawers and stuff like that and on another day I walked past the hallway and out in the hallway was Indy's iPad

positioned on a couple of apples. It was playing a Disney Plus show. And she was sitting in the doorway of her room folding clothes. And I was like, I told Amanda, I was like, that's great, she's got us on a technicality, yeah? Because the device is not in her room. She's in her room, but the device is in the hallway.

And Amanda's like, it's still not allowed. I'm like, no, you've got it. Like in a court of law, she's got us. You said, I'm not allowed that device in my room but the device is in the hallway and man is still not allowed i'm like no you've got it you've got it like in a court of law she's like you said i'm not allowed that device in my room yeah she's going to be one of those people that when they're older and they're making complaints she's going to know all of the rights all of the t's and c's where she stands and this again why i go back to my point there's all this talk about oh there's record low attendance at schools at the moment no keep them out of school don't educate them or else stuff like this happens and it's going to come back to bite us you're in the kids are too smart too smart it's like when we start bringing in robots they're going to turn they will turn on us i i told you before i used to do that

to my sister in a way too when i had to stay out of her room but i put my arm in there but standing from the hallway and that would all that up. Ben's in my room! It's like, well no I'm not, it's just the technicality I mean, and I was in the room And this is why you're proud of Indy Yeah, the annoying voice gene is running through her system She's read all the T's and C's

The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast Scrolling through your feed I'll be honest, we've got no journalism credentials, but what we do have... You're struggling to say credentials, aren't you? What we do have is we've read the first paragraph of these news stories and formed hardcore opinions. Ben, what's going on?

Well, we were just talking about you, Jonathan, cutting your eyebrows before reaching that stage of your life where there's a tortoise by the name of Jonathan. Now it's the oldest living land animal it's celebrated its 190th birthday. Producer Joel. Is that you or the tortoise? I'm not sure.

That's me just getting out of bed in the morning. Producer Joel has found this audio from National Geographic and that is a tortoise in coitus. Yes. Tortoise mid-coitus. Once again there, Producer Joel. Now, it was a gift given to the island St Helena where it lives as a gift.

And it was given as a gift in 1882. Get that. 1882. The tortoises outlived everyone that probably originally had the tortoise. But it still moves the same pace it moved when it was day one. Yeah.

You know, they don't falter. They're consistently slow and painful, aren't they? The thing is, 190 years old, it's blind. It doesn't have any sense of smell. But despite its age, it has a good libido and is frequently mating. So there you go. But it's blind. It doesn't know what it's mating with.

It thinks it's mating. Who there you go. But it's blind. It doesn't know what it's mating with. Who knows? It thinks it's mating. Who knows what it is? Do you know, two facts I know about tortoises and turtles is that I did read a tortoise is a turtle, but a turtle isn't a tortoise. Tortoise is a turtle. There's some details about that.

Okay, right. And a group of tortoises is called a creep. I thought that was Prince Andrew and his mates. Oh, well, speaking of the royals, or the ex-royals, Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, it's out tomorrow. They're a new Netflix show.

It's a six-part documentary, and a second trailer has been released. No one sees what's happening behind the closed doors. I had to do everything I could to protect my family. When the stakes are this high, doesn't it make more sense to hear our story from us? Yeah, so there's been a bit of talk since the trailers have been released on Netflix

that some of the footage in the trailers is not from what it claimed to be. There was a scene with, I felt like, hundreds of paparazzi all snapping shots on a red carpet, which had been edited in to look as though they were snapping Harry and Meghan, right? Yeah, there was also another shot of Harry, I think, walking through Desmond Tutu's residence in South Africa, and it looked like an invasive shot from up on a roof, but that was from the official photographer who was there at the time. There were people up there on the roof, officially allowed within the compounds.

Well, I mean, we're all judging off a trailer here. So maybe once we see the Netflix documentary, they'll tell a one, because they're bearing all. You know, it's time for us to learn the truth.

Maybe they'll go ahead. Also, that shot was used from that, and this shot. Just so you know, we went to the Harry Potter premiere, and these were the guys

taking some photos. There's also another shot of what looked like Meghan being pursued by some paps in press, but it was actual footage from President Trump's former attorney leaving his New York apartment during a scandal back in 2019. Okay, well, join us as we have rolling coverage of people roasting Harry and Meghan

about their documentary. The documentary is... We haven't even seen it yet. No. And we're all just re-roasting it on tiny, one or two second grabs on a trailer. It's out tomorrow. It is The Hits. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast.

Now, all through the radio yesterday, you would have heard Jono saying, my Uber rating is low. I'm going to tell you. I'm going to tell all what happened, why it's so low on the show. It was all through the radio. It was all through yesterday afternoon.

I was listening away to The Hits. Brad and Laura do a great afternoon show. Listening away, oh that's right tomorrow i don't even know i know pretty much everything about you why is his uber rating so low what has he not told me i've discovered the answer yeah you discovered that apparently i was cutting my toenails by a pool and someone saw me so maybe you'll do that when i hear that it grosses me out well you're doing that in the uber because if that's what you're doing by the pole imagine what you're doing that in the Uber. Every time I hear that, it grosses me out. Well, you're doing that in the Uber. Because if that's what you're doing by the pool, imagine what you're doing in the back of the Uber where you think no one's around.

That's a public place, cutting your toenails. By the pool. Oh, I know. Someone witnessed it. At a nice resort. If someone, yeah, if you've just joined the show, someone called up Leonie, said she saw, well, no, her daughter saw me cutting the toenails

and they text her saying, don't come over here. Don't go, he's not finished cutting his toenails. Pryor is sitting in a mountain of toenails. Oh, we get that done. What does all this do? Anyway. Anyway, short answer. I don't know what I've done to the Uber community,

but now I'm sitting, because five I imagine is your good star rating. Yeah. Five out of five. I'm sitting on 4.6. I don't know what I've done. Nothing wrong. I've of five? I'm sitting on 4.6. I don't know what, I've done nothing wrong. I've sat there, I've had banter,

good banter. Chatty. Too chatty. Too chatty, I think, in a lot of situations. Have I chatted myself out of a five?

Potentially. How bad is the, how poor is the conversation that I've had? Well, producer Joel was, you've had something happen in an Uber before,

right? Yeah. Soil Uber. Yeah. Regularly soils Ubers. Every Monday morning. Thanks for really bringing this up as well. Soiled another Uber, guys.

Just dealing with the whole Uber fallout. You're having to negotiate with them. It was outside the Uber. I cleaned it up, guys. Still on the Uber. But anyway. Not my account, though. He's still got a higher rating.

I have 19 one stars and I've still got a higher rating than you. Because you can deep dive into how many one stars you've been given. I've been given one one star. What did I do so wrong? I sit there, I'm polite. What are you sitting on? 4.86, I think it is. 4.86.

So, yeah, it's always slightly higher than you. You know, sometimes I do, I blame my family sometimes because I'm like, the Uber's here, guys, hurry up. Yeah, we're just putting up. higher than you're not you know sometimes i do i blame my family sometimes because i order my uber's here guys hurry up yeah we're just putting up i was like you know you know like then you keep the person waiting i wonder if that gets a little like a little bump down oh that's not on me i'm always ready to go i'll be you all the time but you're waiting out 10 minutes before the ubers are on that's like tracking them all i'm going around the family go the uber will be here in seven minutes do you want me to push go do you want me to be you ready and they're like yeah

Sarah, my Uber rating is 3.5. Sarah. But I'm blaming my boyfriend because he uses my Uber account daily. So it's all his fault and he's in fact soiled three Ubers which has got her rating down soiling just sounds

I know this it doesn't mean you've actually you know gone to the toilet in an Uber no it doesn't mean that you could have

you know had some cake yes and spilled that which means you made a mess in the Uber but it just sounds like

oh you soiled an Uber yes oh how dare you the hits the Jono and Ben podcast means you made a mess in the Uber, but it just sounds like... Oh, you soiled an Uber. Yes. Oh. How did you do that? How dare you? The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. The Football World Cup is on at the moment.

We often have it on in the mornings with the sound off. I'm so passionate about the fans. Yeah, if we've got it on mute, you don't hear the cries for help from the humanitarian crisis. That's the way we like it, right? That's the way we like it. Just on the sound off. Let's ignore that. There's a lot of stuff we're ignoring but it is, the football is incredible right now. The penalty

shootout, it's always high drama and some upsets, some surprises and a couple of weeks ago we ran a sweepstake. Don't drag me into this, this has been Boyce's shabby sweepstake. $100 is the prize that producer Joel has allocated people who rang up that day for countries, and some

of them are still in the World Cup. Some surprises still on there. It's because I picked Portugal. Are they still going, Producer Joel? Yeah, they're on at the moment. They're winning 2-0 in the run of 16 over Switzerland. They'll be through to the quarterfinals, which were coming up in the weekend. And Morocco this morning won

against Spain. Who would have thought? Well, not me because I know nothing about football. I wouldn't have given it a second thought. It was a big surprise, so we should call the person. It just sounds like Morocco sounds like a country that shouldn't beat Spain. Well, let's call the person who's allocated to Morocco in our sweepstake here on the hits. Hello?

Oh, hi. Hi, Cherie. Hello? Who is it? Hi, Cherie. Hello? Who is it? You'll know who it is. Oh, my God. Do the scary voice. Do the scary voice.

Go on, John. Do the scary voice. Hi. Is that the scary voice? Hi, Cherie. How often do you guys do this role play? Yeah, that's a bit of a thing Cherie and me have got going on. Hey, how are you?

Hey. Hey. Hey. Oh, geez. Sheree, I don't know what that was. I don't think Sheree knows who she's talking to. It's Jono and Ben from the Hats. Yeah.

Oh, you did. You do like the scary voice. Sheree? Yeah? Great news. You're still in the Football World Cup, babes. Oh, great. Yeah, you got still in the football world cup babes oh great yeah you got Morocco

in our sweepstake we're just reminding you and Morocco surprised everyone by beating Spain today who've won the world cup before so you're still through it

you're still in there for a hundred bucks oh great yeah yeah you sound we thought you'd be well she hasn't won

the hundred bucks I guess it's not ready to say but you have you've got a ham really yeah because you're on the air

right now so you get a ham so that's good and potentially a hundred bucks do you think we can get a better reaction for the ham over to you

okay now do the scary voice Jono hey hey why is the scary voice there it was meant to be it was meant to be charming.

I don't know, I came across scary. Hey, good on you, Cherie. We'll keep you up to date with the Football World Cup and enjoy that ham. Well, thanks for making my day. You're welcome. Have a great day. Love you guys.
