The Hits, with the Jono and Ben podcast. Cheers to Dilma, making the world a better tea. I feel like we're the only ones working here in the building, here at work this morning. It's just because we were dumb and we didn't get the day off. Everyone else was smart. Well done if you did. No, you know, a lot of great plays from a lot of people around the country. Well, a lot of great plays.

Okay, 0800 THE HIT STORE, text 4487, snap poll. Did you manage to sneak the day off or are you out here in the trenches like us, battling away? Sleeves rolled up, hands getting dirty. Hands have never been dirty in this job, to be honest. No, true. Even though you use an extraordinary amount of hand sanitizer, Ben, probably unnecessary. The hands are really not that dirty at all.

But yeah, a scorching day around the country, particularly in the South Island today. Temperatures over 30 degrees in some of the regions. I think 34 in Ashburton today. That's hot. Is that fire hazards? Yeah, they say warning because it's really hot and also with some gusty winds as well.

So yeah, not a great day to light fires, if you're going to do it anywhere out and about. Well, anyway, why would you be lighting a fire today? No, it's not like you're going to be cold, are you? Seems unnecessary. How was the weekend? You had your birthday. You had Andrew's birthday, your husband's birthday, Megan.

His 30th party. If you heard the show last week, I did steal a 30th, like a 3-0 balloon from someone here at the Hits who had a 30th party. I took it home. Were they like shriveled raisins by the time you... Yeah. Yeah. So I thought the helium would last, but it didn't.

It didn't last at all. Well, I mean, the party was yesterday, so we made it to Sunday. I was like, where's that balloon? It was a shriveled up mess on the floor. Looked like Joe Biden's hands. So I'm so glad that I stole it from work. So they didn't go on display?

No. Did they still have go on display? No. Did they still have a bit of life in them? Were they still floating? Barely. Like halfway up. Deflated lungs. You don't understand on like a 40th or a 50th, maybe the balloons would be a bit like, huh.

The 30s feels like there's still life left in you. But it was a good day. It was a good day, yeah. But I'm listening to my husband being like, man, everything hurts a bit more. Like, oh, Suri. I'm like, I will always be 10 years older than you. Come back at me when you're reaching 40, mate.

You will always have sore knees and hips than he ever will. 100%. 10 years ahead, baby. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. A Canadian pizza hut store had to close their kitchen and they put up a sign over the weekend, but unfortunately it was a bit of a typo and it said the kitchen will be closed

due to unforeseen circumcisions. Unforeseen circumcisions? Yeah, not circumstances, circumcisms. You never want them to be unforeseen, do you? You want to plan for that event. Yeah. Some great social media going around going what no tip uh this weekend at the store as well and the pepperoni pizza is going to be interesting

Big fan of Wordle Like loves Wordle And she justifies I'm like you're still playing Wordle She's like well you It doesn't really have social media really too much. So she's like, I like to do that. It's my kind

of time that maybe I would be like turning my brain off and going on social media. She's still using her brain and doing Wordle. And there's still actually quite a lot of people still doing Wordle. Really came to the forefront in lockdown, didn't it, Wordle? Yeah. Yeah, had a huge resurgence. And then I stopped doing Wordle and making banana bread too as well from COVID times. Lots of people still lockdown didn't it yeah had a huge resurgence and then uh i stopped making uh doing world land

making banana bread too as well from from cove time people still do it it's amazing we're having conversation and uh over the last couple of weeks about people that's still doing it and there are people that still do it and another game connections as well where you find the four words that sort of connect up between 16 words it's quite a fun game but um we're talking um my wife and her you know from friends a few weeks back we're talking about my wife and her you know from friends a few weeks back we're talking about the words that they use for wordle and i sort of dipped my toes in every now and again and someone said to me oh because you got to start with the five letter word often people start with the same word at the moment and they're going around people like oh i

put in a rise or i put in roast and one guy went i put in penis every time to start it off i put it in that's the word I put in. I'm like, oh, great. That's a great start. A couple of vowels in there. I'm like, it gives you a laugh every time. So I'm like, well, hey, if I'm going to play a word, that's going to be the word that I use to start things off.

So now and again, I play as well. I put it in. I always have a little laugh as I'm putting in that first word. It doesn't matter how old you get. It still brings a smile to the face, doesn't it? Not once has the New York Times given me that one on the first one. It's not the first one today. I just tried.

But we're having a conversation, and I got stitched up over the weekend because I had some friends over. Music was blaring, and we were talking about Word All, and everyone was talking about the first words and that. And I said out loud, and it was one of those moments, you know, when the music stops in between songs. And I said, my penis still hasn't come up in relation to Wordle. But that's all that the other people at the party heard was me just blurting out that.

And they were like, oh, my God, what is he talking about? You're like, no, it still works fine, the actual one. We're talking we're talking about wordle wordle and soon as you say we're talking about wordle after you say that everyone doesn't believe you so that's uh yeah it's it's something that i'd uh yeah i'd like to take back in the social setting one day your teenage boy wordle will come through my friend i know it's going to be a great moment it's going to be a great moment but i feel like because the new york times does they do they are the people that put it out they're never going to be a great moment. It's going to be a great moment. But I feel like because the New York Times does, they do, they are the people that put it out. They're never going to go there. I mean, that would be the last word that they'd go for, wouldn't it?

It's probably a dark day for Wordle when that's the winner, isn't it? You're right. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, Megan, DMs, dear Megans, people, how long have we been battling away on this show for, Ben? How long? Five years? Yeah.

Not once has anyone written me a letter seeking advice from Jono. I get these all the time. Megan's here for 10 days, two weeks in a row. Yeah, people just love a chat. Pouring their heart. Well, they do with you, mate, not with me. So, yeah, if you do have a situation you'd be happy for us to talk about on the radio, you can go to my Instagram

send me a message. Send me one too. Got anything you'd like to ask me as well. We'll leave people's names out of it. Yeah, we'll keep it anonymous. We don't even know the person's name today. No, I do. That's how good you are. That's how trustworthy you are. This person's coming hot though.

They really want us to agree with them. Hey guys, I want to know what you think about the situation I'm dealing with. They really want us to agree with them. Hey guys, I want to know what you think about the situation I'm dealing with. Ideally, I want your backup because I'm not okay with it. My best friend, since forever, has started dating my brother. Yes, it is early days, but I don't want it to get serious because I feel like I will lose my friend to him. Also, if it goes badly happen to you. I have. My best friend, since I was like 11, I started dating my brother.

I hope neither of them mind me talking about this. Too late now. We used to talk on the phone all the time, like every night, me and my bestie. And then she started calling up and just asking for him. And I was like, oh. These are the landline days too, obviously. Yeah. Yeah, right.

So you've answered the phone like, hi, Megan, how are you? Good, good. Is your brother home? Yeah, like you'd have some small talk. And then she was like, is are you? Good, good. Is your brother home? Yeah, like you'd have some small talk and then she was like, ah, is Justin there? I was like. How did you feel about that?

I wasn't totally stoked on it, but I was kind of like, well, I really like her and he's my brother. So if I want my brother to be with someone cool, like I would, she's the best person. I didn't really think about if it went badly. Luckily it didn't. What if there was a cheating thing? Oh my god. Either she on him or him on her.

What side would you take? I would take the person who got cheated on side. Right. But then I guess you just have to have faith in the process. But one of them's your brother. Yeah. It does complicate things. It does. It does.

But then, you know, if you like someone, if two people like each other, then it's, you know. See, I couldn't start dating Amelia, Ben's sister. First, because I'm married. And secondly, I'm like, well, she's 40% Ben too. Right. You know? Do they look similar?

Well, no, just some qualities. Not all qualities. We did that face swap thing with the pair of you. And I did look like my sister, yeah, where they sort of swap your gender and stuff. They looked identical. Yeah, that's creepy. That'd be my main reason for not.

But yeah, 800 the hits. What do you reckon on this one? Can your best friends date your siblings? So you're saying what, the situation? I think think it's okay i think if everyone's mature enough i don't but what i guess wrong is the thing you know what are you gonna do stand in the way you don't want to be the one that stands in the way of a potential relationship i'm a guy and we're very useless so who did your friend complain to about her useless boyfriend? Who did my friend complain to? Yeah, who was also your brother. No, I don't know.

She didn't complain to me. Really? No, God no. But I also think he's useless. So it changes your friendship. Yeah, I think he's useless, but she's not allowed to say he's useless. You know what I mean? Yeah. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Yeah, Megan, we've started something called DMs, Dear Megan,

and we're getting some great messages coming through for some advice, mainly from you. We chip in. I don't think anyone listens to Jono and myself, but that's all right. We're in there. We're in the room. Just filling out time, aren't we? Producer Taylor, this happened to you.

The Dear Megan today was around a lady whose best friend? Is dating her brother. And she's not okay with it. Yeah. Well, see, my situation was a bit more rogue. I wouldn't say they were dating, but they were playing with each other from time to time. Playing each other. You had a better way of putting it.

With their private parts. Yeah. Yeah. In our house, our family home, when my parents were also home, my parents didn't know until my dad went to the bathroom at 3am in the morning and ran into my really, really close friend in the bathroom as well. What happened? I don't talk to her anymore still to this day.

So can things go badly? Yes, if things are done the incorrect way. But there was fun times in your bed too, wasn't there? There was, correct. In your bed? Yes, because I was away. I was sleeping somewhere else that night. Did you wash the sheets?

I'm sure my mum would have, yes. That's a very get the nappy sand out situation. I can't handle knowing that any of my brother's private parts had been on my bed. Yeah. Well, Taylor's brothers were. That's why I moved to New Zealand. All right. Is it okay to date your best friend's sibling?

We'll get Lucy on from Christchurch What do you think, Luce? Hello Yes, so I'm the sister I'm dating my brother's good friend Okay, spicy Yeah So we're actively talking about

Maybe getting engaged in the next six months You can say it's definitely a bit serious That is a bit serious Was it awkward at the start Yeah, so we're actively talking about maybe getting engaged in the next six months. You can say it's definitely a bit serious. That is a bit serious. Was it awkward at the start, or do you have to have conversations at the start of the relationship? Yeah, it was awkward. What we did is we, I, firstly, I asked him out because I knew he would never ask me out because bro code, of course. Yeah.

But then he said yes and broke the bro code anyway. And then, yeah, we kept it very, very PG for the first couple of dates just to see if something was there. And then when it was very obvious there was something there, I called up my brother and said, hey, I need to talk to you about something. And he said, oh, yeah, so you're dating Craig, aren't you? I keep figuring it out. Was he okay with it? Yeah, he said, he said, quote, if you're going to date anybody,

I'd want you to date Craig because, you know, he's the person I really trust and all that. And I'm like, oh. So he gave his blessing at the time. Oh, that's lovely. That's kind of how I feel. Like if it goes well, then he's got like the best brother-in-law, his best mate.

Yeah, and they get along really well. We just went home to my parents' house for dinner a few weeks ago, so we were all down and they were joking together and getting like a house on fire like they always do, and it's, yeah, it's really sweet and really humble, but yeah, I made sure before it got serious

to get his approval, because at the time I could have broken off if he was really uncomfortable with it. Yeah, right, so things started out PG, where are they now? AO, what with it. Yeah, right. And I would have. Things started out PG. Where are they now? AO, what's happening? Yeah, we're about to move in with each other. Yeah, good on you, mate.

I really will. I appreciate it. We'll go to Aaron. Welcome. Dating your best friend's sibling. Can it be done? Oh, absolutely, mate. Yeah, so I was probably 18 at the time,

and I had a good mate of mine, and I was pretty keen on his sister. She was a couple of years younger than me. Yeah. And I said to her, mate, what's the chances of having a crack? And he said, as long as you treat her well, mate. And her dad was a bit of a hard bugger, and he sort of gave me the ultimatum also. Yeah.

So we started kicking things off And hey mate, long story short 32 years later, we're married We've got a young lad He's now 27, he's getting married next Friday We've got three beautiful grandchildren So it works Good on you Aaron As long as you get their blessing

And you treat them right Then I've got no problem with it, eh, mate? Good on you, Aaron. I appreciate it. What about having a crack, mate? Give it a crack. I like that. We'd get a more rural New Zealand conversation.

That's as romantic as it gets in the regions here. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Michael Bublé, we love him smooth. The singer, lovely guy. Seems like a lovely, just genuine lovely guy and amazing voice. And I'm feeling good. Imagine Michael Bublé, you know, always in a suit, looking suave, singing along. But he's a big hockey fan, loves his ice hockey.

And last year he played in the Celebrity Game over there in Canada and admitted something in a press conference this year that went on. Oh, last year. Last year's game, right. And he doesn't remember it because this is what happened. He was on mushrooms.

My buddy told me, this is just a microdose of mushrooms and he was lying. So I'll be honest, I thought I was in blades of glory for most of the time that I was out there until it sort of settled down, and then I realized, holy ****, I am at the NHL All-Star Game. You're a really good hockey player. You got good hands, dude.

You just got silky mitts, my brother. It was people, congratulations, congratulations on being chosen to go to the All-Star Game. And I was like, congratulations, I'm a superstar. Is he on him again there? It sounds like he is, eh? It definitely sounds like he is. So like during the game, he was just high on mushrooms. Great stitch up from his friend too.

Because he's probably sitting in the audience going, look at bloody Bublé. He's a pretty cool guy. I love how he's just Talking to the reporter Going you You've got great hands Silky hands And the guy's like

Okay You've got nice hands too I guess Justin Bieber performed Over the weekend At two The first time he's performed Live in two years

Actually he played In the game as well He's a really good Hockey player Justin Bieber Is he? Yeah ice hockey What level of mushrooms

Was he on? Ice hockey and mushrooms Two things that Shouldn't go well together. Now Megan, clickbait headlines. We started this last week where you read out three headlines from three different stories and then we decided, put to the vote,

what story we want to hear in full. Or whether you just want to go on the internet and look for yourself. Yeah, well you can do that if you're quick enough. Don't talk about the internet. You can do that, so let's do it today. Clickbait headlines. Alright, your three headlines this morning, you can only choose one.

Which one intrigues us the most, go. Man arrested after FaceTiming his mum from Thailand. Story number two. Six different doctors told the student she wasn't pregnant. Then she saw her baby's head. Six different. Oh, sorry. No questions.

No questions. Last headline is. You won't believe how this lady got pregnant. Person trapped alive in a coffin for fun. Those are your three headlines. Oh, I really want to know about the pregnancy. Yeah. It always bewilders me how people go through a full term of pregnancy and not know. But then you said six different doctors.

Yeah. So, yeah. Sloppy doctoring. Yeah. I didn't think that's the one that would get you. What did you think? It's up to you to choose. What did you think. Yeah. I didn't think that's the one that would get you, but that's okay. What did you think? It's up to you to choose.

What did you think? Well, I also know which story's the most fun, so... In your eyes, what's the most fun? No, I'm not going to answer that. No, you clickbait us again. Say this one's the most fun, and we'll see if we're tempted. I think the man arrested after FaceTiming his mum

is quite intriguing. You'll love this fun story. Well, I don't know if fun's the right word. It is quite serious, but it's juicy. Is FaceTiming illegal in Thailand? No. Just what the person was doing? Oh, look.

Okay. What do you want? She's tempted me. She's tempted me. I don't want to care about the pregnancy. Well, she was pregnant. Okay, she was pregnant. We pretty much know the story now.

You're right. What was the third one again, sorry? Person trapped alive in a coffin for fun. That could be Mr. Beast. He's done something like that, I think. So I'm thinking that's, you know, I've seen people play in that field before. If you don't choose that one,

you'll never know. There's no way of knowing. I'm going to go with the one that you said, the FaceTime one. Shall we go with that one? Can you tell us about that? You're locking in the FaceTime. Yeah.

Okay. So a Kiwi man has been arrested in Thailand after he FaceTimed. Kiwi? Yeah. Wow. So there was actually a group of guys in Thailand. They were in, is it Pattaya? Which is the sexy capital of Thailand.

They ran out of money and they put together a sham where one of the guys looked like he'd been beaten up and it was a kidnapping hoax. And he FaceTimed his parents in the UK, made it look like he'd been beaten up to get money out of them. And when the police turned up, they had like an armed offender squad equivalent in Thailand stormed the apartment where they were staying. They found the bunch of guys partying. Now, when you hear the story, who do you think these guys are?

How old? Oh, 22. We're talking in their 50s. The man whose parents they FaceTimed was 48, but then all these guys were arrested. One of them was 50, one of them was 57. Their businessman. Oh, lands away on a weekend.

Of course, if it's the grubby sex capital of Thailand, of course they're in their 50s. Oh, God, that is sad. Who's calling their parents at 48 being like, Mom, I need more money. Well, they're not. They're having to come up with an elaborate hope to get the money out of the parents.

Oh, and buddy, Thailand again. Not ferrying more money over. And so what? He's arrested. All of them have been arrested. Not the happy ending they were hoping for. Yeah, they did have drugs and ammunition and stuff in the hotel room as well.

So it was like a big, big deal. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. The Grammys are on today, Yeah, they did have drugs and ammunition and stuff in the hotel room as well. So it was like a big, big deal. The hits. The Jono and Ben podcast. One day the Grammys are on today celebrating the best in music. And over the weekend, Demi Lovato, she was performing at an event for the American Heart Association. And guess the song that she played? If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack.

Oh, Demi. Now, she has been getting some flack online for it, but the event organizer has gone into bat with her and said, actually, if you're there in the room, which no one was, everyone was online, it was actually an empowering moment dedicated for people that have gone through it. And Demi Lovato has actually had a heart attack as well. But on the surface,

it seems like a wildly inappropriate song to play. It's one of those things, if you've had one, you can sing it. Anyone else is singing along, but if not, it seems like a wildly inappropriate song to play it's one of those things if you've had one you can sing it anyone else is singing along but if not you're like why is she playing a heart attack song at the heart association gig uh big event at the grammys uh this year as well uh taylor swift nominated for many scissor nine nominations so olivia rodrigo and oprah is going to be presenting an award there too. So apparently Taylor Swift's going to be in the building if she wins an award. One of those ones.

Oh, great. She's not performing, is she? No. No. Who is performing this year? SZA, I think, is performing. Olivia Rodrigo. Travis Scott.

You too? They're performing as well? Well, speaking of Grammys, they've won 15 or been nominated for 15. Sorry, won six, the Black Eyed Peas, and Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas had quite an insightful comment, I thought, which popped up on my Instagram feed, about AI, so artificial intelligence.

Have a listen. My biggest concern, investments on AI to make machines smarter. There's no limit to the amount of money that's been pumped into it. The investment in AI to make humans smarter, human intelligence, that's just sad. It's sad that we're going to live in a world right around the corner where machines will be more articulate, analytical, critical thinking, banter ability, contextual, deep understanding, while we have resorted to short tweets, emojis, memes, and stickers. It's a very good point. Like, who would have thought the guy responsible for my humps, my humps, my lovely lady lumps would have such a deep insight

into the future? It's a good point. I say that we're getting dumber, Izzy, and machines are getting smarter. Well, we're just trying to work smarter, not harder. Like, if a machine can do it, then let them do it. I typed into AI, into chat GPT, I said, is AI bad? And it said, well, in summary, it's not inherently bad or good. It depends how it's designed and implemented,

which made me love and trust AI even more. AI is not. It's smart. It's too smart to tell you it's bad. It's not going to go Actually you got me Guilty as charged That horse is bolted now

It's not even a real horse It's a AI horse Now last week Megan You told off another kid at the playground They were being aggressive with my Two year old son Pushing at the playground? They were being aggressive with my two-year-old son, pushing at the slide. They did it a couple of times. So I did wait to see if a mum was going to step in, a mum or a dad, and no one did.

So I took it upon myself. Yep, cold, calculated, whispered, did that talking so other people couldn't figure out what you were talking to the child about, smiling through your teeth. Yeah, and not too threatening to make them cry because then everyone knows what you've done. If I see you do that again, it'll be trouble. And you don't want to move your lips too much either in that situation as well. You're like a ventriloquist, aren't you?

So can you tell other people's kids off? That's what we threw out there. Probably not is the answer, but we've got a lot of callers on air agreeing with Megan. Have we got that grab there, Grace? Yes, and I expect people to tell my kids off if I don't see what they're doing. If any kid comes into our house, they're considered family and they get treated like our kids. And I would 100% expect friends, family, everyone to tell my kids off.

Yeah, the calls and texts kept flooding in over the weekend as well. And Emma, good morning. Hi, how are you? We're doing really well. Now, do you tell off other people's kids? I do. I'm a teacher and a mum and I've not only told off

other people's kids, I've told off other people's parents. Oh, you tell off parents as well. Yeah. So instinct kicks in. Unfortunately, it just becomes part of who you are. And I was at my daughter's school prize giving, high school prize giving last year at the end of the year and sitting up on the mezzanine floor. And the parents behind me were talking.

And I guess it's just instinct that kicked in. And I turned around and I said, you need to be a little bit quiet, be a little bit more respectful. Oh, you told off adults. Wow. I did. I didn't even know I was doing it. It just happened before I even knew it. Fair enough, though.

How did they respond to that? Oh, I don knew it. Fair enough though. How did they respond to that? Oh, I don't know because well, they were quiet but I don't know if they rolled their eyes or No, they were rattled. I probably had the entire mezzanine floor rolling their eyes behind me. I don't know but

we were outside after the prize giving and I was introduced to my daughter's new friends and the parents were there that just happened to see me telling other parents off and they're like, oh we saw you up on the mezzanine floor. Oh no.

I did confess to my daughter look this is what happened. I'm so sorry. I've just embarrassed you with all your friends. She has now banned me from every single prize giving for the future. Until she finishes, probably if she graduates university, I'm probably not even going to be allowed to go there. You've been banned.

That's incredible. It really rocks you, doesn't it, being told off as an adult? Oh, yeah. Good on you. Appreciate your call. You're going to have a great day. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now we're going to get on to your calls for you surprising us

with something special about your body. You can text 4487. Any superhuman, you might have x-ray vision. I don't know, I'm just chucking stuff. If the cast of the X-Men were actually listening right now, that would be handy because Maddy McLean joins us from the all-new Maddy and PJ show, new to

the hits in 2024. Good morning. Good morning. Lovely to have you on. Have a nice weekend, did you? It was fantastic. Oh, good on you. Maddy McLean, been working here for two or three weeks now and starting to learn the harsh realities of commercial radio,

like when you get your nipples examined. They didn't do this on Breakfast TV, did they, Matty? No. It would have been a very different show if they had. How many years were you on Breakfast for us to not know about your nipples? Well, I was on breakfast for seven years, and yeah, strangely, it never came up in conversation with Jenny Mae. So if you missed this the other day,

Maddy and PJ were talking in the new drive show here on The Hits about your, what, extra one or two nipples? How many you got? Well, I said one, and it's always been my fun fact. You know when you're getting to know new people it's always you've always got to have a couple of things that you can throw out and I have had what I have always believed to be a third nipple underneath my main nipple um and so I told PJ that I had a third nipple and she said like is a doctor examined it and I said well no but it looks like a nipple

it seems like a nipple I It seems like a nipple. I think it's a nipple. And she said, well, we've got to get this examined. We've got to get the definitive word on whether this is or not a third nipple. So we got a doctor on the show. Is it sensitive like your other nipples? No, no. And it doesn't get hard in the cold or anything.

Right. okay. So it's not a fully functioning nipple. It's like a half-formed nipple. Exactly, but it does have the markings of one, I think. You know, if it's cold, you can sometimes see little raised dots around your main nipple. Maybe it was the nipple that lost confidence in itself. It went, hold on, there's already a couple on here. What am I doing here?

Backed out. So if you look at it, you kind of go, oh, yeah, I can see that that might be it. So anyway, we got this doctor on the show, and I had to send him so many photos of my nipular area. And he examined the photos, and he said, yes, that is a my nipple area and he examined the photos and he said, yes that is a third nipple.

Then he shocked us completely by saying and you see that little mole underneath what is your third nipple that also is probably a nipple. Four nipples! Rocking around with four nipples. He's like a nipple. Four nipples. Rocking around with four nipples.

He's like a bovine. That is much nicer than saying he's a pig. Well, you're in good company. Doesn't Harry Styles have four? He does. Exactly. So, yeah, me and Harry just rocking around with an extra nipple. I'm looking here too.

Celebrities have, this is to make us all feel better, Mark Wahlberg. Yep, he's got three. Zac Efron, three. That's quite a common thing, isn't it? The doctor said it is not uncommon. So he said to me that the milk ducts run basically all the way down both sides of your body. So if you, like, trace the line from your main nipples right down to your groin, if you've got any kind of markings along those lines, chances are it's a nip.

And that's when I dropped a wee nugget that when I was in Vegas a few years ago, actually quite a few years ago, it was like 2007. So it looked a little bit different. I used to wear a lot of eyeliner, had long, dark hair that I used to straighten all the time.

And I was walking through Vegas. I was in a mall actually on an escalator and someone stopped me uh and asked for an autograph and i was like what like i why do you want my autograph like who do you think i am um and that's when they were like well you, you're Amy Lee from Evanescence. Oh, they thought you were the singer from Evanescence? They thought I was the singer. A little bit of a gothy, bogan vibe. You showed me a photo before. We'll put it on the Hits Breakfast social media. We'll do a side-by-side.

Side-by-side. I could see why they thought it from that particular photo. Yeah, I mean, I did used to wear a lot of eyeliner back in the day. Oh, yeah. 2000 and 70 era. And yeah, after that, I mean i they were very insistent so i i signed an autograph as amy lee and they'll probably go back and look and like i don't know what her signature looks like imagine how many people they've told that they ran into why were they

not buying it why weren't they accepting the fact that maybe they just thought that i was trying to like go under the radar as Amy Lee. I didn't want to be recognized. But I was like, I'm not who you think I am. But in the end, I just wanted them to go away. So I just signed what I thought Amy Lee would sign. As Amy Lee? Yeah.

I signed her autograph. Well, for them, it's a good story. They still feel like they met Amy Lee. Yeah. And to be honest, I came home and I reflected on how much eyeliner I wore and toned it down a bit. That was the real takeaway. Well, during the peak of neck minute, the popular catchphrase, multiple times, I was mistaken for Levi. It's his name, Levi Hawken, who's the neck minute guy.

Lovely, lovely gentleman. Lovely guy. He really is. And this was, you know, this was the peak of it for sort of 10 years ago. And I wasn't here to crush dreams. It was the role I was born to play. So I happily, I hope I did Levi proud. Didn't I?

Many photos, many signatures and autographs. He was crushing it.
