Well, the good stuff with the pseudo-ephedrine on the bedding or the anti-myth cooking stuff. He knew exactly what he was doing. And he got five out and he had regurgitated a few up, but then I could see he had definitely taken a big chunk out of one. Jesus Christ. Were you thinking of having to go to the 24-hour?

But he had started projectile vomiting and went into a seizure that time. Oh, jeez. Yeah, it was full on. This time around, there was no vomiting, no seizure,

And he still goes for the codger all the time. Yeah. He went for the codger all the time last night. I ate a few of them. Unfortunately, he seems all good this morning. A little drowsy. He hasn't been able to drive the car to work or anything like today. Heavy machinery.
Starting point is 00:03:13 He's got to avoid that. You said you woke him up at four and he was a little drowsy. But then you're like, it was four in the morning. Yeah. So who knows? Let's get Lee on. We're just talking about what your dog digested. Lee, full board of calls here this morning. Lee, welcome.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Hi. We actually had another dash hound, and mum came back from shopping, dropped a cup of yoghurt on the gravel driveway, turned around and the yoghurt was gone, including all the gravel. They do like eating gravel, don't they, dogs? Especially when it's covered in yoghurt. What did you have to do? Because it's covered in yogurt. Oh, yeah. What did you have to do?
Starting point is 00:03:47 Because this is just a stomach load of stones and yogurt. She had to go to the vets and had it all removed. Oh, stomach pumping? Yep. Mmm. Mind you, if you're going to get your stomach pumped, you don't want to be, what's that for? Yogurt and gravel.
Starting point is 00:04:03 You want to be a little more credible, don't you? Good on you, Lee. Really appreciate you listening and calling in this morning. Deb, welcome. How are you? Yes, hi. Now, this involves the Lego characters in the household. Yes, we had a dog called Dad the Pug, very original,
Starting point is 00:04:20 and he was obsessed with the kids and the Lego bits. So we just lost every little lego figure he would chew it out and and not just that the plastic pegs not be hanging up the washing of a peg dropped down onto the ground not only would he chew it he would actually ingest it so he would forever be finding bright bits of colored plastic in his poops around the yard well ben's dog did the same with a sock, one of the kids' socks when they were very young, and then it got sort of caught on the way out,
Starting point is 00:04:50 like an extra tail that I had to go help the dog with that, which was a low moment for the dog and myself. He never had to go to the vet, but he was dispossessed. Everything is awesome, except when you've got 10 Lego figurines in your stomach okay thank you very much appreciate your time the hits the jonah and ben podcast now a week or two ago i was talking about how my daughter used chat gpt which is like artificial intelligence it's basically like a website that you can go to and and you can you can get it to spit out something very quickly
Starting point is 00:05:26 if you wanted to write a poem you want to write a letter you want to write an essay whatever it is you just type it in there and with a matter of seconds it'll just write this thing for you it's pretty you can even go make me a shopping list for the week bang 10 seconds i know so she went on there my daughter and went to write me a note uh to make me sound like an adult basically because something that she'd bought had broken and she wanted to sound like she was growing up to get this thing replaced. And I read you some of the things and I was like,
Starting point is 00:05:51 well, you should have probably run it past me before you sent it on to the company because it sounded like, yeah, it sounded like you're an adult, but it was things like, I appreciate your attention to this matter and your commitment to customer satisfaction. I've been a loyal customer. I look forward to enjoying more of your satisfying products.
Starting point is 00:06:07 You sounded like a neurotic adult. Yeah, exactly. But still sounding like an adult. An adult I wouldn't want to spend time with? No. Someone who's like, geez. So she sent this away and she got a reply back from the company saying, yes, we will replace the product that is broken, which is great.
Starting point is 00:06:23 But what happened is yesterday the courier must have replace the product that is broken which is great. But what happened is yesterday, the courier must have delivered the product and we've got a gate and a fence that keeps the dog out, you know, because we've got quite a big dog. Keeps the dog out or in? One of the two. Yeah, keeps the dog in. It keeps the dog from going out, sorry. Keeps other dogs out?
Starting point is 00:06:39 Yeah, keeps other dogs out. Our dog in. It keeps our dog in. That's how a fence works. Yeah, that's how it works. I've just mansplained how a fence works. Yeah. So the courier, this product was obviously too big to go in the letterbox,
Starting point is 00:06:50 so the courier threw it over the top of the fence. And our dogs pass, they're kind of past the puppy stage where things are not that exciting for it to bite and chew. But obviously the thing thrown over the fence, the dog must have thought, well, this is a gift from the gods. It came flying from the heavens. It was a fun game. So I got home last night, and this thing had just been mauled by the dog.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Bite marks, the whole thing, the package, the product. And now I'm like, well, what do you do? Because it's got bite marks through this replacement product. But can you write back in? Can I use GPT to write back into this thing? You don't want to be that person that complains twice. And it's on us really it's our dog. Yeah I see
Starting point is 00:07:27 what you're saying here but this neurotic fictitious adult that you've created could potentially go and write let's go write write a letter about a dog that ate our product we need a refund
Starting point is 00:07:43 let's see what it says, mate. Okay. It might save you bacon again. Dear person, I hope this letter finds you well. Oh, good start. I'm writing to bring your attention to an issue I recently encountered with one of your fantastic products. Oh, grazing too.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Well done. You'll never believe it. My beloved dog managed to intercept the package through your online delivery. I realize this is not your fault or not your problem. But if you could please rectify this issue. Oh, so it's like. You're putting it back on them. The goodness of their hearts.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Yeah. Because I was like, well, it's on us. As you can imagine, this is resulting in much disappointment for me as a beloved customer of yours. In light of these issues, I kindly request a replacement package to be sent. I should just send it away just to see. So I can continue enjoying your product. All right. Well, I'll give that a go as well.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Chat GPT, eh? Does it all. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. We've actually got a bit of history with Dovin, don't we? With Sir Dave Yeah, legend We ended up in a very tense hostage negotiation That's right
Starting point is 00:08:50 He became a literal cat burglar, Dave Dobbin We were hosting the New Aotearoa Music Awards Which was great to do We had some silly joke where we had a taxidermied cat for something Oh, it was Gareth Morgan At the time Who was wanting to cull all the cats and we'd done a gag about people the things that people left in the lost property at the arena and
Starting point is 00:09:09 we had this taxidermy cat and after each one we kind of threw them out into the audience people sitting around tables thinking that we'd collect them all afterwards once we stopped filming and we gave this taxidermy cat to to dobbin and as we were walking back to the stage, he's like, can I keep this cat? And I'm like, who am I to say no to Sir Dave Dobbin? If he wants a taxidermied cat, it was a bit of a manky cat too. Half its ear had been ripped off. The foot was missing on it too,
Starting point is 00:09:35 but it was an actual cat that had been. We didn't realise it had been hired by the production team. So we were like, yeah, of course you can, mate. Dave Dobbin wants the cat. We can give it to you. Yeah. And three days later, we get called into a room. They're like, where's that cat? We're like, well, Dave Dobbin wants the cat, we can give it to you. Yeah and three days later we get called into a room they're like where's that cat? Well Dave Dobbin's got the cat. We gave it to Dave Dobbin
Starting point is 00:09:50 yeah and they're like we hired it. They're like the costume company needs the cat back it's worth thousands of dollars and we're like but its ear was missing the foot was off it's like Dave wanted it. Dave Dobbin needs it. Listen I'll go and I'll grab another cat now. Oh, no, no. And we can go and we can get a brand new one. No, that didn't happen. So they're like, no, no, they really need it back. So then we got in touch with Dave Dobbin. We're like, mate, we need that cat back. He's like, what cat?
Starting point is 00:10:13 And we said, eh? We said, the cat that we gave you. The stuffed cat. And he's like, I don't know what you're talking about. And so then we hung up and we're like, Dave Dobbin doesn't know what cat we're talking about. And they're like, are you sure you gave it to Dave Dobbin? So yes.
Starting point is 00:10:24 We're 100% gave it. And they're like, we'll call him back. We got back to Dave Dobbin doesn't know what cat we're talking about. They're like, are you sure you gave it to Dave Dobbin? We're 100% gave it to him. They're like, we'll call him back. We got back to Dave Dobbin. Again, he claimed no knowledge of this cat. Now, this has been back and forth for about two or three weeks. And eventually, by the way, about the 17th time we called Dave Dobbin, he's like, okay, I'll come clean. I've got the cat, but I've grown attached to it.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Yeah, he's like, I've given this cat a new home, a better home than you'll ever give that cat. And he really wanted that cat, didn't he? He did, but being the lovely guy he is, he obviously gave the cat back. I think he was just having a lot of fun over three weeks pretending that he didn't have the cat. And it was safely returned to its rival owner.
Starting point is 00:10:57 But I feel like we owe Dave Dobbin a stuffed cat now. Yeah, I know, but the means to do that, as you said before, is not something we're prepared to go through. Something I'm willing to do for Dobbin. No, definitely not. Now, Ben, I'd like you to cast your mind back to the moment where you wiped your mouth with someone else's napkin. A stranger's napkin.
Starting point is 00:11:18 That's right. It was in a downtown train station in Los Angeles as well, too. I thought the kids were at a table. They were eating their lunch. I came over there. I thought the napkin was used by one of the kids. And I wiped my mouth as well. The kids just looked at me like, oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:11:33 That's not ours. You never meant to share napkins with strangers. Oh, yeah. I don't know. Was it like a soil napkin? It's definitely used. I thought the kids had used it. I was like, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:11:42 And they just looked at me in horror. Yeah, it was a low moment. Then you look over and see who used the kids had used it. I was like, it's fine, and they just looked at me in horror. Yeah, it was a low moment. Then you look over and see who used the napkin. Yeah. But yeah, I want you to cast your mind back there, because I had a very similar incident yesterday. The communal kitchen here at work. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Okay, so I'm making a coffee, and I have one sugar in my coffee. Yeah. All right, so I had the cup. Imagine this, the cup and the spoon is sitting in there. All right. Then I pour the hot water in to the coffee and I then go and grab what I think is the spoon. Not paying attention. Not paying attention.
Starting point is 00:12:18 And I feel like I've scooped the sugar. Well, I don't feel like I scooped the sugar up. Gotcha. Put it into the drink. And then afterwards, I sometimes just like to wrap my lips around that spoon and suck all the sugary goodness off the surface of the spoon.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Although, this sugary goodness tasted like tuna. And I'm like, uh oh. Uh oh. And look down, and I had pulled a spoon that was sitting in a used bowl of tuna bake. A previously sucked on, eaten, used spoon. I've just put it in there and removed the last remnants of whatever that tuna dish was into my mouth. And you're just like, your mind automatically goes to, I feel like a sewer rat has used that spoon.
Starting point is 00:13:10 You know, you feel like the worst thing in the world's mouth has used that spoon. Which really, it's probably going to be fine. Absolutely fine. You know, it's just a bit of dried up tuna and some colleague's mouth. Someone's DNA from the work, but yeah. And then I was like, oh, well, and then you try and list scenarios that you've been in
Starting point is 00:13:24 that have been worse than this current one and I remember a time where you made me lick a pedestrian button well no you I remember you volunteered to do it
Starting point is 00:13:33 I remember going don't do that and you just went we were in the red light district of town broadcasting and you're like oh look at that yeah
Starting point is 00:13:39 and I was like oh don't do that and I got swept up in the madness and I licked it and I don't even know why we need to stipulate the red light district in town because it feels like it adds a bit more jeopardy to the, but any button.
Starting point is 00:13:49 I don't think anyone was filming it. You just did it. And licked it. And then afterwards, I was just, literally, I was squirting hand sanitizer onto my tongue. So I was like, well, that was a worse situation than I'm currently in. Yeah, you're right. You've done a lot worse.
Starting point is 00:14:04 The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, you've found something on Reddit, which is this is a unique situation, Ben. Yeah, so just trying to describe it in the simplest and clearest way, because it is a wild story. So a woman has gone to social media to Reddit, and she's said that she's found out her partner cheated on her. Now, her partner, so they're married. They're a young married couple in their 20s.
Starting point is 00:14:27 And she has discovered that her husband has hooked up with a friend of his. But this friend was terminally ill and she is no longer around. But when she found out she was terminally ill, she professed that she had a secret crush on this lady's husband. And they ended up hooking up once. It was her dying wish. It was basically her dying wish, and that's all that happens. Unfortunately, this person's no longer with us. She's gone.
Starting point is 00:14:53 But this lady has just found out that her husband, now, many months later after this person has died, that her husband has cheated on her with someone who is terminally ill and is no longer around. Now, she doesn't know how to feel about this and she's gone to, well... Always go to the internet. I find it's always the best option
Starting point is 00:15:11 for therapy and answers is going to... People you don't know weighing in on your business, you know? Like bonyguy22 underscore who's... That's me. ...giving his opinion. I've got some great advice for a lot of people. You're like, let it go, babe.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I pretend to be 22, but I am bony guy now producer Taylor will bring you in on this one oh now Taylor yeah this has fired you up I have so many thoughts and feelings
Starting point is 00:15:34 this makes me feel sick this story so you're the wife in this situation what are you doing I'm killing him oh really so okay
Starting point is 00:15:42 yeah like I don't care like her like really sad for her, obviously terminally ill. But that doesn't mean you have to break up a marriage on your way out. But they kept it quiet. Yeah, but everyone knows stuff like that always gets out. Well, to be fair to the guy, you'd think he was taking a pretty safe bet there
Starting point is 00:16:01 that word wasn't going to get out. Where you're like, mate, if you're going to hedge your bets, it wasn't from that person it was from friends so somehow did she tell who told i don't know there was a conversation they had to the wife that would have been an awkward conversation going oh you know about this and she's like what what i don't know about this like if it's just hey let's just keep this buddy you know uh but oh 800 that's if this was proposed to you okay so front footed
Starting point is 00:16:26 front footed he didn't front foot it probably should have yeah he should have he should have weird thing to front foot but you're right
Starting point is 00:16:34 if anyone's considering it he probably should have come to his wife and say hey so funny we how was your day well here we go
Starting point is 00:16:41 what are you reading about this yeah if it was front footed to you Ben okay front footed to you Ben okay so Amanda comes to you she's like hey my best mate hunky Greg oh hunky Greg there you
Starting point is 00:16:53 are hunky Greg I don't know about hunky Greg he's on his way out he's just told me his dying wish what would you what about ugly Pete you can never go with uglyly Pete. Not a huggy Greg.
Starting point is 00:17:06 But the thing is, they're not going to be around to be a burden on the relationship. Are they? Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter? Doesn't matter. The wife now knows that's happened. And now that removes all of the memories they had of that person that passed as well, because she knew her. So now she hates her.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Yeah, right. So if this was proposed to you, that your partner came to you and said, hey, my best friend asked me to do this before they passed away, would you let them do it? 0800 The Hits, telephone number. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. We're just talking about a story that's making news around the world. A lady's gone to Reddit, which is a website on the internet where people
Starting point is 00:17:43 love to chip in on other people's issues, right? It's bloody to Reddit, which is a website on the internet where people love to chip in on other people's issues, right? It's bloody wild, West Reddit. If you scroll through a Reddit comment section before, there's no such thing as defamation on Reddit. A lot of stuff they're saying, you're like, you can't say that. I heard that, but you know, well, don't.
Starting point is 00:17:57 If you ever want to know whose name is suppressed, just go onto Reddit. Yeah, but sometimes I've got it wildly wrong. They do. They just say stuff. They do just say stuff and sometimes you're like, you can get fined
Starting point is 00:18:07 a lot of money. So a lady has gone to Reddit, to that site we've just been talking about after she found out that her partner, her husband,
Starting point is 00:18:15 cheated on her with his terminally ill friend who has now passed away. The friend, they were in their 20s. She decided that, well, she told, she confessed her love to this lady's husband,
Starting point is 00:18:31 saying that she'd always had a crush on her and they ended up hooking up once. That was it. Nothing else happened after that, apparently, before she sadly passed away. But now this lady has found out many months later that her husband has cheated on her with someone who is no longer around and she doesn't really know how to feel about this. Half-out gesture from the gentleman, too. The lady has found out many months later that her husband has cheated on her with someone who is no longer around,
Starting point is 00:18:47 and she doesn't really know how to feel about this. Heartfelt gesture from the gentleman, too. He's like, who am I to take away a dying woman's wish here? Yeah. Doing his part. I just want to be anyone's wish. It could be a genius play. Go around telling people that you're dying, and you're like, my dying wish is... Oh, that's too... And then you're like, oh, I made a miraculous recovery. Go around telling people that you're dying and you're like, my dying wish is... Oh, that's too...
Starting point is 00:19:05 And then you're like, oh, I made a miraculous recovery. Modern medicine, eh? Modern medicine. I'm good. On the other side, you could also go around cheating and then go, oh, it was their dying wish. She had a headache. We thought it was a brain tumor, but then made a miraculous recovery. Thought she had skin cancer.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Turned out it was benign. Yeah, well, the jealousy is apparently eating this poor lady out and so she doesn't know what to do. So what's the text? The text machine, 4487. Producer Joel, sorry, mine's locked out. What are they saying on the text?
Starting point is 00:19:40 We said, if you were in this position and your partner came to you and said, hey, my dying friend's last wish is to, would you let them? 100% let him sleep with her. It's only sex. It's not like they're going to run off and get married, take it in the situation. Wow.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Really? Now, Producer Taylor, VM it. Yeah. I want to see how you feel about this. I'll get Producer Taylor back in here again. She's running back into the studio. Jeez, we make you clock up some Ks running in between, don't we? So, yeah, someone's saying on the text
Starting point is 00:20:05 100%, let them hook up. It's only just sex. And you know what I'd say to them? If you want it so bad, you can go with them in the afterlife. Is that what you'd say? Yeah, and do it for eternity then. You're so quick to say you'd cut off appendages.
Starting point is 00:20:22 You're just very, you're like, I've got a knife, Freddie. It can happen. What if, and good for that person, but what if they come out of the terminally ill sickness? It happens. There's always a risk,
Starting point is 00:20:32 isn't it? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. All right. Okay. I don't expect to get that text. Another text as well.
Starting point is 00:20:41 In regards to the old friend and the husband, regardless if you're the terminally ill, that's a really bad friend. Yep. Preach to the ill friend and the husband, regardless if you're the terminally ill, that's a really bad friend. Yep. Preach. She guilt tripped the husband.
Starting point is 00:20:49 She knew what she was doing. Exactly. That's what they're saying, mate. She knew what she was doing. Another text here, 4487. Producer Joel sounds like the kind of guy that would do that. That's not cool. That's not cool.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Who was that? Mate, we're just talking about defamation on Reddit. That's a text machine. Take him, mate. Take him to the court system, Joel. That sounds like something you'd do. Who's having the best weekend? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:13 You thought the UFC was brutal. Well, you haven't witnessed the blood sport between Connor from the Hits in Christchurch and Hayley from the Hits in Wellington. Now, we'll bring Connor on first today. This week, Connor, how was the marathon last week? You ran a marathon. Yeah, a half marathon. I don't want to, you know, gas myself up too much.
Starting point is 00:21:32 It was one of the most rewarding and most painful things I've ever done in my life. That last three kilometres, it's like you're in the hurt market. All you're telling yourself is just, don't stop, don't stop, don't stop, don't stop, and your body's screaming, stop! Stop!
Starting point is 00:21:48 Please stop! Did you have headphones on the whole time? Yeah, I did. But at the end, it didn't really matter what song I played. I put Cover Me in Sunshine on. It really didn't do it for me, eh? Cover Me in Sunshine! Something, eh?
Starting point is 00:22:01 Well, congratulations, I appreciate that. The Emerson's Marathon. Yeah, yeah, congratulations. I appreciate it. The Emerson's Marathon. Yeah. Yeah, that's the one. This weekend, though, back in Dunedin, the Teddy Bear Hospital. They have teddy doctors, pharmacists, dentists, nutritionists, nurses, physiotherapists, emergency services, and many more. They're working together to create this awesome event,
Starting point is 00:22:23 as well as a teddy doctor and consultations on the day. They have games, courses, a mobile x-ray machine, a bouncy castle, food bubbles and heaps going on at Carers Book School. That's tomorrow in Dunedin, which will be great fun. So hold on, you bring your teddy bear along and it gets seen too by medical professionals?
Starting point is 00:22:40 I think so and the idea is to kind of make kids feel more comfortable around being seen by doctors and whatnot. I thought the doctors were teddy bears. It's a shocking thing. Hopefully the I think so, and the idea is to kind of make kids feel more comfortable around being seen by doctors and whatnot. That's a good idea.
