Thanks to Hello Fresh, cook easy, delicious dinners, the whole family will love because nothing beats dinner time. Hey, welcome to the podcast today. A real vulnerable one for me. It shared a story. I don't know why I shared the story, but it's brought a lot of us together. Yeah. You know. A vulnerable moment.

I appreciate it. You'll hear it very shortly, something that happened. I didn't need to talk about, but I did. And I've got a lot of support. Eventually the support came through. I think people are a little gun shy to show support from the get-go. Yeah. Yeah, but once one came through, Jesus, snowballed, didn't it?

Yeah, and someone has just said there's not a lot of men as part of this little wee club, but if so far said they're part of the club, but that's okay. Hey, they might be listening and they might be going, yeah, me too, but they don't want a message, you know? Yeah. But they feel seen, is that what you're saying now and they feel seen in her? Yeah, feel, yeah, your pain. I reckon, I reckon percentage-wise, about 60% of people right now

would be wandering around with a little bit in there. I don't know. You're going to 60 right now? I heard that's too, like, no. Is that too much? I think it's quite a lot. That means more than a half of people, like, no. So more than half of people, there's five, one, two, three, four, five on this show.

Two and a half currently have. Things have got horribly wrong for us this morning, if that's the case. There's me and Ben and a little bit you. Yeah. So are you part of the little wee club? Yeah, so maybe it's something we've started up right now. You know, fight club have a lot of rules, don't they, you know, don't talk about a little wee club.

You can talk about it reluctantly. Bring a spare pair of underpants to wee club. is yeah that would be good you know you know toilet paper and tissues and stuff just to you know no fright no trouble everything's calm at little wee club you're right we're definitely not fighting at little we club are we not we're not worst enemy things are pretty peaceful at little we club well enjoy enjoy ben's vulnerability johnno ben and megan the podcast the hits Megan you say this from time to time and I thought of you yesterday when this happened And again, I don't know why I'm talking about this, but maybe it's...

Just because you've got a radio break to film? Yeah, probably sharing stuff makes you feel... I'm... I say it and I'm like, well... I'm going to say I'm ashamed, but... I haven't said what the thing is. But I know what you're talking about. Yeah, do you know what I talk about?

So you did this at work? Yeah. And you weren't joking. This actually happened? Wow. And you're going to talk about it on the radio? I don't really want to admit to this and halfway through this now. I'm like, why did I admit this?

So, do you want to say what you think it is? That's saying you'll say from time to time? So I literally, the other day when we were filming something and we all jumped around out there, I said, oh my God, I think a little bit of wee came out. A bit of we come out. And now this embarrassingly happened to me yesterday. Now I came back and I had to voice something with my daughter, Sienna,

who, you know, we're doing a podcast to get to come back and voice a promo. And she wanted to go to the bathroom. And I was like, oh, time for the bathroom. And then I was waiting for her. And I was like, well, maybe I should go to the bathroom too. You know, sometimes you're like, take the opportunity now. Yeah, it's a good thing. Yeah, when you've got an opportunity to release, do.

Yes, I never regret it. It's Jono's life at night. He says that often. You do. If you get the chance to go to the bathroom, do, take it. Put that on my gravestone. I think about you when I'm out and about. And someone was like, did you go toilet?

I thought about that yesterday and I was like, you know, I will go to the bathroom. John would say, go. And I managed to go to the bathroom, come back out and she was still doing whatever she needed to do in there. I don't know. But, you know, so I was like, I was waiting for her. TikTok dance or something. Probably. Chatting.

Looking at my phone, waiting for her, and my bat was turned towards, it was just out behind you there, Megan, in the four-year area. My bat was turned. Lots of people walking past and stuff, so it wasn't like knowing when she was going to come up. But all of a sudden she came out and just gave me a fright, just a big boo, fright. And I went, oh, and I got the thing. And then, yeah, I didn't say it to see her at the time, but a little bit of wee cake. And just a, just a, just a, and I'm sorry. You just mean toilet.

But I know, and I was, I don't know where it came out. Frightened out of you. First time it had ever happened to me in my life. And I was just like, and I didn't say anything. And it just was like, oh, that's uncomfortable. That just happened. That just happened. Was it enough to be like, oh, that's a change?

No, it wasn't a change situation. No, but it wasn't, no. But yeah, and I thought of you, Megan, because you say it as, you know, when we give you a fright or something happens, you're like, oh, a little bit of weed came out. And I was like, does it actually happen or do you just say it as? No, babes, you're so relatable to so many women who have been through childbirth now. Yeah.

But I haven't, though. that's the embarrassing thing. They've removed a human from their body. Yes, I know. Now I just got a fright for my daughter and pee myself. You would hope your plumbing was still tight enough to... Well, so would I. And I thought, well, maybe it's because it's just being started the process,

and my body's like, I don't know. It never happened to be before, and hopefully it never will again. But I was just like... This is the moment... This is the moment we get that lucrative Depend sponsorship. I knew it was coming. I know if I reached that stage. I'm up 12 months.

I was like, geez, dear God, this is embarrassing. The show brought to you by a... adult diapers. Didn't say anything to my daughter. Didn't say anything to anyone until this moment right now. And now you're telling the whole country. And again, why am I sharing this? I don't know why.

Let's make you feel better. 4-487. Has a little bit of pee coming out over the last 24 hours for you. Not today. Not 24 hours. At least give me like the last 24 months or something. 24 months. We'll just do a text poll.

A little bit of pee come out. Dude. I'll admit it. I'd say six months ago, a little bit of pee came out. Oh, six months ago. Mine was like a couple of weeks ago. Oh, good. Okay.

Anytime I sneeze, can't go on a trampoline. Oh, really. No, God. Yeah, get a fright, watching a show and something excites you sometimes. Jesus, this is all to look forward to? Okay. This is a safe space, mate. 4487? Okay, okay. 4487. Please help me out right here this morning. Don't have to go on here, but just make me feel like, you know, I'm part of a club. A club that no one wants to be part of. John O'Ben and Megan. The podcast. The Hits.

Something else that you are appreciating after 8 o'clock this morning. We're going to chat to five. Now the boy group Was huge They were just massive And they've got back together again After many many years And they're coming to New Zealand Which is very exciting

And we got the chance to have them On Zoom Now you are a huge five fan Five for me Were bigger than Backstreet boys I was obsessed You were messaging your mate yesterday You're like oh my God

I'm going to be 22 to 5 And then a voice messages We're coming about I love Scott Oh I love Jay I love him She likes Richie I wasn't allowed to like Richie

Because she like Richie you know it was the whole thing yeah you heard it we were very excited um so i Scott was my favorite and i am a little bit freaking out because it's all five of them all five yeah all five on on zoom you'll be able to see their faces they'll see us and they were all over your bedroom wall right as a teenager yeah yeah but and well so what we're going to do after eight o'clock today because we know that you're very excited we've got a little heart rate monitor and we're going to attach that to you and you need to keep it under a certain level otherwise interview is over.

So as a professional broadcaster, sometimes you do get excited when you interview some people, but I pride myself in being able to hide it. A little bit of a wee come out. A little bit of a wee's going to come out. So tell me about it, mate. I don't know.

I'm not sharing that with you. Inside, there's a tornado externally calm. Yeah, I know what you mean. But the heart rate monitor is going to expose me. Well, that's right. And you're going to have to play it cool, mate. They don't want to be interviewed by some sort of crazy fanatic. You know, we're going to have to.

So that's after. So they were all over your wall, like as Tina. A posters. We're just talking about this yesterday. Postas, you know, for my kids, not necessarily something they seem to do anymore. That's weird.

Not what, it's sad. I put pictures up on their wall, but it's not like, oh, I need to buy this magazine for these posters and things like that. It might be because when I was a teenager, we had lots of magazines, which aren't really around now.

We had like TV hits, Dolly. Dolly, yeah. Cream. You would kiss the posters too, wouldn't you? Yeah. So I had...

She got to third pace with the poster. Not only on my walls, but I had them on my ceiling. So when I'd go to bed at night, I could look up and be like, Good night. Good night, Abbs. And then I'd have ones beside my bed on my like tallboy that I could lean over and kiss.

Good night, Gary. Yeah, and I did give. I remember their names are. I did get. Sebastian. So, yeah, so I wanted to know on 0-800, it's 4487. What posters did you have on your wall was a team? For you, it was five Hanson, right?

Yeah. For me, it was, as I've said before, I think yesterday, a lot of sports players. Yeah. League players, you know, you weren't kissing Mark, Mar-Clo. Good night. Gene Namu. from the Warriors. Hydra Ocasini.

Oh yeah. Hydra Ocasini was a great player for the Warriors. Warriors players. Sean Hoppy. NBA players, cricketers, yeah, they were all over the room. Oh, Scotty Pippin. And then a little bit of wheeze comes out.

Okay, I wait under the hits. The posters that you had on your wall, because it was really, that was your personality. If someone walked into your room, you'd be like, I can see what this person's into. Yeah, that was a chance to display that. Yeah. You know, me, I get obsessed about things.

John O'Ben and Megan, the podcast, The Hits. It's Benson Boone, Mr. Electric Blue, at 738. It's just about an hour's time, Megan. You're going to be chatting to five who were, you know, huge fans of. I'm just, I think I need to calm down because, like, I've said I love Benson Boone. I'm going on about how much I'll have five. Someone texts in saying, would you be more excited to interview five or Liam Lawson? I was like, gosh.

You keep going to have more heroes than Ben Bush. No, he's probably rubbed off. Working with me for a while. It's very rubbed off on you. You know, you're like, oh yeah, I'm knocking like them, no, I'm a lover, you know? Yeah. So you had your room doused and the wallpaper. The wallpaper was covered in posters of five.

On the roof as well, and then on my tall boy beside bed so I could kiss them before I went to bed. All I can remember about that period of my life was my dad going, don't let that bloody blue tack rip off the wall. You know, if the blue tack hardened, it would peel off the wallpaper. And when I tried to take them all down, it did rip the wallpaper. But then, you know, I put drawing pins that I'd get told off. You're like drawing pins and then you move it and little holes in the wall. How am I supposed to stick them up?

Did you ever use cellotape and you'd fold the cellar tape over? Oh, that would want. That would get the dad going. Cellotope! So what were the posters on your wall as a teenager? So many texts coming through for this one. Yeah. Joe, morning to you and Upper Hud.

How are you? Hi. I'm good, thanks, Jono. A bit of nostalgia, Joe, this morning. The posters you had littered on your wall? Oh, gosh. Probably quite a few. I love to see Eurismics

No, Leo and Romeo and Juliet. Oh, gotcha. The night outfit. Yeah. Oh, God. John O'Ben and Megan. The podcast. The hits.

Alice Swift and Travis Kelsey got engaged yesterday. Oh, did they? If you missed it, I'm sure you can't. You couldn't avoid it yesterday. You can't avoid it right now. It is everywhere. Even our Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, he was doing a message, a shout-up message, but also a plug on social media for them to get married in New Zealand.

Well, Taylor and Travis, a big congratulations on this fantastic news. Getting engaged is such an exciting time. I know you might not be thinking this far ahead, but there would be no better place in the world than to have the wedding here in New Zealand or even your honeymoon. You know what he sounds like? He sounds like when you go on holiday and someone's like, Hey, do you want to go for a parisail?

And you're like, oh, you're okay. Come in here for a five-hour seminar. You're like a timeshare or something. Yeah. Have you thought about New Zealand? Yeah. It's a wonderful destination. That's right.

Just for engaging in a such an exciting time. It's like, oh, it's a head. He's getting involved. Yeah, we're getting involved. Everyone was getting involved. There's much younger social media person's like, put a camera in front of his face. And then we're like, oh, it's probably the best take we've got to get. We can do it like 10 more times, but I'll just put it up there and move on.

That's what their social media person would be saying. also Jason Kelsey, Travis Kelsey's brother that I do a podcast together. They just had Taylor Swift on the podcast that broke records. And he was sort of reflected on the podcast, the last podcast, and also the engagement. What's up 92% is welcome back to another episode of New Heights. Unfortunately, it probably won't be as good as the last episode of New Heights, where we set our own records. We set podcasting records. We set a Guinness Book of World Records.

There is one gigantic piece of new news that just hit the waves. We felt necessary as a team to get together and send Travis and Taylor a giant congratulations for being engaged. Yeah! The proposal heard around the world! Woo! F*** yeah!

Let's go! Taylor! He's pretty excited. You can't do anything in a normal tone, can't you? It's not for any... It's infectious, though. It is infectious. It's going to be a wild stag dude.

It's going to be wild. Oh, my God. Oh, look out. Eyebrow shaving. Wasn't Travis, like, drunk for two weeks after this is going? They're going to block out a month, I reckon. Oh, my Lord. Okay.

So if you thought Luxem's message was cringe, well, have we got something for you right now? Yeah, we've got some pre-pre-pre-pe. We've got some live scripts that we're going to read here. Taylor's lost new album, Life of a Showgirl. Which just seems great. We looked at the track listing, and we thought, well, maybe we could turn it into life of a married woman, you know, like turn it into, you know, what things happen when you get married. Okay.

All the song titles, we've gone back. Megan, you've got a. a script, I've got a script. Jon, are you going to try and play some music? You know, we could have done this fancy and, like, record it in a studio. We're trying to do it live. So this is like, harking back to Taylor Swift's songs, big hits, and we've added some new married additions to it.

Raw dogging, raw dogging. Yeah, the married version. All right. Here we go. Who's going? Okay. Get ready, Swifties. Forget life of a show girl.

This is Life of a Married Girl, featuring Taylor's marital masterpieces such as Cruel summer at the mother-in-law. Look what Travis made her do. Release this bathroom banger. Whatever's on the toilet seat? Shake it off. This song's what happens when the love story reaches its final chapter. Blank space.

In bed tonight, you're on the couch. Forget 22. How about 42? We are never ever agreeing who's family to see at Christmas. They're also never ever getting out of debt thanks to a crippling 30-year mortgage. Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Because you refuse to use Google Maps. It's less you belong with me and more you irritate me.

You need to calm down. About dishwasher loading. Taylor Swift, life of a married girl. Definitely not out now or ever because we are terrified of her legal team. Pressure. Oh, that's bad. Well, I mean, you know, like take inside the clankers, you know, the clangers. Yeah.

But hey, what you just heard was a demo and then you'd take that into a proper studio and then do it. But we've got other stuff we need to do, right? You know, like Luxon's Christopher Luxem video, we do it, we put it out there, we move on. That's the best you're going to get. John O'Ben and Megan, the podcast, the hits.

My mum, she's a bit older, obviously, and you get a bit of time on your hands, don't you? When you reach retirement age, which I think comes with a lot of beauty as well, because you start to appreciate things around you that I'm imagining most people listening right now you don't get to, you're deadlines work kids you're just you're on this treadmill

there's non-stop treadmill through the middle part of life aren't you but then she would stop when she's at our house she's like Jay come and appreciate this tree look at the plants growing out of the roots of this tree come and come and touch the plants and I'm like don't have time

don't have time for rubbing plants and trees But then I'm thinking, it's lovely. It's lovely. And it's also when you're probably under the age of five or under the age of 10, you can appreciate all the stuff that the world has on offer. And then all of a sudden that disappears. You're dead inside for about 40 years and it comes back when you're retired. Remember I tell you to look at, I'm like, look at all those blossoms.

You do actually. Yeah, to be fair. Look at the trees. But you're right. You're like, oh, you give me that response as well. Joe, so look at this video on Instagram with this little person doing something. No, I think sometimes Ben puts his glasses on and he's actually asleep, but I think he's listening. Yeah, no, you're right, Megan, you do appreciate nature and beauty.

Yeah. You do, but yeah, there are some funny little people on Instagram, though, doing some funny little things. That's the beauty I appreciate. Remember I was trying to cuddle a tree? Because if you, like, if you talk to it, it can, like, cuddle you back. Yeah, I was like, mate, David Attenborough over here, eh? Going on tour with her. No, but it's nice, you know, because you do get swept up on it all, just to take a moment.

It is, yeah. There's a certain amount of wisdom that comes with age You know you don't appreciate deadlines You start appreciating tree roots What this world has on offer I can't wait for that News of the week John O'Benn and Megan

The podcast That's coming to New Zealand Let's put them up there I would say five of eclips This news that came through yesterday Travis Kelsey Jason Kelsey's brother Is married to Taylor Swift Just if you didn't know his background

And we are pleased these nine as Jason Kelsey's brother To ancestry.com for that information. Yeah. So they got married as, and it was everywhere. Donald Trump was talking about, Luxem was talking about our prime minister. This is so good as well, from a university in Tennessee. Do we have that audio where our lecturer broke the news to his class and then this happened? We have a biocam midterm today, but Taylor and Travis just got engaged.

Due to this information, I can't focus, you all can't focus, classes canceled, get out of here. We got to go. We need time to process this information. You need time to process the effort. So he called off a test. Screw the bio-key midterm. Yeah. Yeah, that teacher's definitely been struck off the register.

Class is over. So Taylor tweeted yesterday, we'll put it out on the social media. Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married. So kind of opposites. They are very different. He likes to go on a bender after the Super Bowl. He's a football jock, you know. He's unashamedly.

This is him after winning the Super Bowl. ball right yeah really giving it is all here and you know she is obviously one of the greatest songwriters ever of all time you know great lyricist self became sort of a nerd she like sort of um like sort of older you things that things that were probably yeah like crafting and things like like that and things that you wouldn't yeah making sourdough bread yeah things like that i think nothing sort of really says how different they are than this bit of uh that we're going to read right now Now, Megan, you want to read lyrics from a Taylor Swift song, just a couple of lines, okay? Death by a Thousand Cuts.

Yeah. Do you want me read it now? You read it, and then Jono's going to read a tweet from Travis Kelsey afterwards, an actual tweet. From the great lyricist and philosopher, Taylor Swift. Jason Kelsey's brother, but we'll get to that just a second. You said it was a great love, one for the ages, but if the story's over, why am I still writing pages? It's very good. It's Taylor Swift.

So one of the greatest songwriters ever, and now we'll go. go to Travis Kelsey. This is an actual tweet. Dude. I just gave a squirrel, spelt S-Q-U-I-R-E. It must be his version of my word, definitely. I just gave a squirrel a piece of bread.

Peace spelled incorrectly. And he straight smashed all of it, bro. I had no idea they ate bread like that. Hashtag crazy. Hashtag crazy. And nothing really like typifies. You know, says how different they are yesterday when all the things are going around. And then his, like, Instagram handle is Killer Trav.

And then someone had gone back, you know, all the way to 2011 on Killer Traves account to find that misspelt squirrel. And peace spelt, P-E-I-C-E. Yeah, not even like peace signed or anything like that. He's got a whole other piece. Just blame that on the C-T-E. Yeah, he got very excited by a squirrel. And, you know. He's so different to anyone else she's gone for, or maybe that's why it worked.

Yeah, opposites. It's a win for the lads. Can opposites attract? Lodes, loads, loads. We wanted to know maybe in your relationship, how different are you? And maybe you are opposites and maybe that works. They do say that. According to science and psychology, have you heard of both of those areas?

Yeah. There is a thing where people are drawn to partners who are different from them because there's a sense of excitement and novelty. Right. But they do say that opposites attract, but in the same breath they say similarity sticks. And that's what keeps relationships going. So that's just everyone.

Yeah, so they've covered their bases nicely there. They do have the lot of those saying, don't I. Okay, oh, Andrew the Hits, 4487. Love to know if you're in a relationship or have been in a relationship where you're complete opposites in a lot of ways. Is Amanda opposite to you? In some ways, yeah, but then it's cool. Again, it's exciting when she puts on her warrior's top.

She watches the white. You know, like, I get excited by that. John O'Ben and Megan, the podcast. The Hits. opposites attracting, are you in a relationship where that's the case, Nanu? Yes, it is. Actually, excuse me. You're with a bloody cowboy.

I sure did, a rodeo cowboy. Oh, wow. And you're a happy from your text? Absolutely, so my children have told me from day dogs. You run around in a house bus with some dream catchers, are you, Anu? I absolutely do have a house bus with dream catch. I could tell, but I could tell. And those windows that are kind of stained, the glass stained windows, the colorful ones?

Well, actually, they're transfer stained windows. Yeah, you know about it. I know them well. So why does the relationship work? Like, why does it work? Well, I'm so out the gate, you know, like a helium balloon, and he's solid and grounded and just brings me down. I can do nutty things.

And it's all okay for him. He just gets on his horse and rides away. It's when it gets too much. So when you guys, when you're going from one location to the other, are you on your bus and he's on his horse? How does this work? Well, actually, yes. happened yesterday. I was sitting in my bus doing what I do and he settled up his horse and said

see you later. What a great life you're leading. I actually love that. I love that you're just your own people but then obviously you come together and connect. That's awesome. Thank you so much for calling. We appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Nanu. Great to have you on. Let's get Alana on the show. Good morning to you. Alana. Hello. Great to have you. You with a cowboy too, mate? No, not a cowboy, no So the opposite though in your relationship Describe the two of you

He's probably a bit of a geekish And I'm quite loud, extrovert He's an introvert And he likes those geeky shows Where he'll try and get me to watch And I'll be like, no, no, no, I'm fine And I like more like romantic comedy stuff But he watched them too

Yeah, well that's good in social situations too I imagine for him you can just take, you can take the centre stage and he can work the back room. And he's a perfectionist and I'm not. I'm just like, she'll be right. Yeah.

It kind of balances the self out, isn't they? Yeah. Oh, that's awesome. I'm glad to, yeah. So it seems like it works. You fill up each other's holes. Yeah. Yeah, nearly 14 years made now.

Sorry, Megan, what? Have you got kids? Have you got kids? Yeah, four kids. They did do that, Megan. They definitely did. I just read that's releasing. Yeah, no.

It's just. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you, Alana. You know what I mean. You know what I mean. You got to have a great day, mate. Appreciate you listening. Get this coming through.

4, 4, 8, 7. John O'Benn and Megan. The podcast. We like to do something from time to time when producer Grace is wound up. She's a Gen Z producer. And what's winding up Gen Z this week? Yeah, I love talking with Grace. A lot of energy when it comes to conversation.

You start a conversation in 2005. You can end up back in 1986. She talks. You talk us into another universe, Grace. John is the biggest talk. She's always wound up. I gave her a hug just before and she's like, what are you doing?

Yeah, she looked at you like. Did you put a kick me sign on my back? You're like, what are you doing? It was really random. It was really random. She thought, I think you needed one. I didn't need a cuddle, Megan. Sorry.

This is her theme song. Charlie XX. So every now and then we check in with you to see what's winding your generation up, Grace. What does it stay? Well, actually it's about another artist, another female artist who has been in the news a lot recently, Miss Katie Perry. She's winding you up. Well, I love Katie Perry. I was, you know, I was there for her

glow up as such, and now she's just so cringe. Her concerts are so cring. She's an alien running around. She is throwing everything at those concerts. She needs to stop. She needs to chill. She needs to chill out. She needs to calm down. She's trying everything, you

know, and it looks like, you watch the clips, you're like, she's running around the stage, she's got all sorts of weird wacky things. I'm like, Katie, you don't need all that. You are good. She's like me and buying costumes off T-mo. Put it in the show, put it in the show, and she changes them show to show. Oh, let's do a squirrel. Blow up squirrel.

It made me watch you come up with that. To be fair to Katie, and it must be so hard as an artist, because it's probably through her 20s. She knew where she was going, what she was doing in her 30s. Then she gets to her 40s, and she's probably like, how much of that do I hang on to? How much new stuff do I do, how to stay relevant? She used to take it down, like, 50%. I think it's 50% down, and I'm like, I'll go to a concert, but right now. I look at it and go, it looks great, but that's probably just me and my love of

costumes. When we were young, there was this thing called try heart. Oh, she's giving try hard. She is the definition at the moment of sorry for trying hard. You just get that in school way. You're tri-hard or a strainer.

Oh, he's a straighter like he's straighting hard to get like to do what. You're like, yeah, I'm trying to. Sorry, I'm trying to pass him. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of. I do love her also.

I do love her. I feel sorry for her. I think she's an amazing artist and she seems like an amazing person. So, but yeah. Just you can. You can still love the artist's music but not their life choices. You know, that's how we're still enjoying

Kanye's music. That's what you say to yourself. But yeah, my message to Katie is just calm down. How would you have done the space thing? Because she went to space, which is amazing and if you were invited, I would go. That's the thing. I was thinking, anyone listening right now

if you got invited to space, you've got to take it. No thing, so I won't go to space, you're right. Absolutely roasted and made that cringy. Because of what she said after, she needed more education about what it was her going to space and stuff. She was hired from Space, mate. She just came back in space.

What was it? She kissed the floor when she got back, and I was like, Katie, it's too much. You ride a wild rollercoast. You go, wow, you come off, you know, you're a little giddy. Adrenaline. I think that's a millennial thing. And I'd be like, how was that? And I'd be like, that was cool.

Oh, try hard. Give us a bit more. It did really started falling apart at the scenes after space, didn't it for her. So, you know, we are team. Let's say we're team Katie. Yeah, we're back in. Team Katie, 50%. Yeah, although more costumes would be.

We're teen, Katie, yeah, on discount. I'll just go 50% off. Okay. John O'Benn and Megan, the podcast. The Hits. Nick Jonas refuses to do anything in bed apart from sleep. We see what's the wildest thing you do in bed, and a lot of tech's not safe for work or radio.

Yeah. Coming in here, so that's the end of that one. You know, you try and do a phone topic. That's right, and people take it to places that, you know? You don't need to. That's on you, not us. I really, I need to confess. I think we've had a dog for a few years now

and driving into the driveway yesterday I've seriously let this dog down because he has zero fear of vehicles so Jen and Poppy my daughter they've done a good job of either to roll over shake hands

I mean if you've got food in your hand he'll negotiate a peace deal between North and South Korea Yeah it's amazing how they They really lock in don't they My dog is like yeah it's like oh now you know how to do these things. But yeah, every day I'll drive in the driveway, he'll sit in the middle of the driveway just staring at me.

I'm not, I'm in a car. I can end you right now. So he won't move. Yeah, but he knows he won't end him. No, but it's like, yeah. But then you worry about then other, you know, like, gets out on the road. Yeah. So not every motorist is like me, you know.

It's to deal with the repercussions of what happens if I do run you over. Yeah. So it's kind of like a game of chicken every day. And then I have to get out of the car, lift him up, move him to them to. the right, he waits, still staring at me, he's driving, drive through into the garage. So turning the horn, nothing. I do, I have to try to turn the hole, yelling, get

out of the way! Nothing, flashing the lights. What about giving him a wee nudge? I do. I actually have gone, I've got, I did one day see how close I could get to him. Still wouldn't move. Yeah. He's like, you're not going to hurt me. I don't know how much you love me. But then I'm like, it's too far gone to teach him now. You've really

got that first six months is pivotal, isn't it, with the training? But then I think the Some dogs are, like, really aware of that. Our dog got, he got run over, like, when he was really young. Did he? Yeah, and he, like, he bolted across the road for another dog and just got hit and, you know, broke his leg and stuff. And so he was quite young. But you think since then, he'd be like, well, this is, I'm still, he'd still do the same thing today.

Oh, I thought you were going to say, now he knows. No, there's times. They don't take their learnings. Hey, you know what happened? You're in, like, a dog cast in the cone of shame for ages. You remember that? We remember it. he's like no it just doesn't have that awareness but then other dogs get freaked by it

yeah a lot of them lead a blissful existence don't they yeah cats are the ones too i mean our cat he's the same as a dog they won't move for a car he's like oh mate yeah again he knows he's like you're not gonna yeah i'm not gonna cast are just arrogance anyway yeah i love it's arrogance personified yeah they're privileged johnow ben and megan the podcast the hits nick jonas from the jonas brothers he was uh taking part in one of those you know those things pop up on social media where people are on the streets interviewing people. How do they just stumble across Nick Jonas?

I see those like with billionaires? You're like, hey, you look like a billion, like guy getting out of a roll. Do you mind spending 10 minutes with me telling me how you got so rich? And they're like, yeah, okay. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. I know what you're saying. What makes you so confident

Jennifer Lopez who I've just run into on the street? What do you do for a job? It's Jennifer Lopez. Don't ask her what she does for a job. We all know that's Jennifer Lopez. And in real life, her security. already would have shot you in the head by now. That's right. So anyway, he was on one of those particular things where he costed on the street and asked

some questions that I'm picking, I'm picking he thought about beforehand, but he came up with a very interesting answer to this, what he does or does not do in the bedroom. What is your beige flag? I think beds are for sleeping only. Like, I don't sit on the bed. I don't eat on the bed. I don't read a book in bed or watch TV. I can't do it.

You are robbing yourself of one of the greatest pleasures in life. I just don't like it to get warm. It's a whole thing. Do you have a TV in your room? I do, yeah. My wife watches it. I'll pull a seat up and sit next to the bed. That is crazy.

It is crazy. Oh, my God. Hey, thanks, random guy. It just popped into it, bumped into on the street. But it isn't quite crazy. It pulls up a seat next to the bed. That is so unsexy. That is so like.

Is it where you watch it? Oh, yeah, I'll get a seat. Put it up here and watch the other. Oh, do they hold ends while she's in bed and he's sitting down? I know you're a big fan. It's like a very intimate... I love Nicky Jay. Intimate cinema.

It is, yeah. I'm pretty certain we'll never be together. I'm like, I can see like some of the argument because I know Megan, you're wild when it comes to your bedroom,atics. You're eating roast dinners and all sorts of stuff. Three-course meals. I'm meeting in the way you're like, you're eating there. I'm like, oh, you know. I'd do everything in bed.

Yeah. Well, not him. It's a comfy seat. He wouldn't even let you die in bed. Like, this is, we've got a location for this. Sleeping owner. You're making it warm. Something's a bit.

I don't know. I don't know. like my wife having a cup of tea in bed. I'm just like, just feels like, are we there at that stage? I'm like, no, not, you know, like it's... I love a cup of tea in bed. That's like every day. It just feels like, you're 80 at the rest home, you know?

What about procreation? Yeah, bathroom floor, maybe Shaggy told me where to do that. Yeah, is he down for... I'm sure he's doing that. I mean, who knows, you know? No Jonas, but yeah, bed pretty much strictly for sleeping when it comes to. Only laughing in the living room? Dinner at the dinner table.

Do you do anything else other than sleeping? sleeping in bed? Not really, because I don't have my phone, so I don't look at my phone, because that goes, that's not, yeah. I'll watch TV, no, I watch stuff on, like, Netflix and stuff. Oh, okay. So I would watch that. Oh, you're Nick Jonas. I'm not sitting in a seat up. I'm pull a seat up and hold you hand. Yeah, I go to sleep to it. It'd be weird. I'll be falling asleep in the chair. Nick Jonas, do you want to go and go, you can stay in the spare room if you want me. Yeah. Very unusual thing. I don't know. I'm 4487 on the text. If you think that's a good idea, you'd do that. Same thing as Nick Jonas, but. Yeah. Okay. What's the craziest thing you are doing in bed?

as well text 4-487 we're not talking that you know you know what we want on this radio show now yeah this is this is family friendly friendly stuff exactly
