The Hits, with the Jono and Ben podcast. Thanks to Challenge, putting the service back into service stations. Something that's not a great feeling is what's happening at home. You know, as a parent, as an adult, you know, with kids, there's a lot of joy when they're young that you know you're better than them, pretty much. You play a board game, you play a sports game, you know more stuff. You're holding back.

Yeah, and you do. You hold back, and it's nice to hold back because you know in your head i could i could really go i could beat them but i don't have to we're just having a fun game right now yeah that's why you have kids to make you feel better about yourself and your ability but then it gets to a point and i've noticed this recently where your kids you know they're getting older and they start becoming better at you at some things and some things i am really i don't mind you know like my daughter andy plays guitar i've never played guitar so it's like well of course she's going to be better than me as soon as she learns a chord she's better than me and I encourage it I'm like great that's awesome but when they start

being better at you and something that you are passionate about that you that's your this is where I've kind of got into a situation are they out emailing you are they doing more emails than you on the daily I've still got that you on the daily? No, I've still got that. You're holding on to that record? I've still got the number one seed for emailing, you know. But it comes to, you know, because, you know, I've been lucky enough to be in front of the camera doing TV work for, you know, 15, 20 years.

And then all of a sudden my daughter, Sienna, not all of a sudden, it's been happening over a while, she's suddenly just better than me. She's getting more auditions. She's getting more jobs. I'm even running lines with her. And I'm like, Oh,

you're so much better. Like it's, I'm the bad actor in these situations at home. It's like, well, don't do what I'm doing. Just do what you're doing. You're already better than me.

Accent, you know, American, it doesn't matter. She's just, she's gnarling it. And I'm like, I don't know how to feel about this.

I'm proud, but I'm also like, you can do accents. I know you can do accents. You're just nervous that you're going to offend a nation of people. I know you have it in you to do accents I know you can do accents you're just nervous that you're going to offend a nation of people I know you have it in you to do an accent

can't do anything let's get some accents out of him right now jeez I'm not doing that right now I thought he was going to send me cancelled quicker than that

but it's I imagine it's mixed emotions for you on one part of you you're extraordinarily proud and then the other part of you you must be like

oh well I guess my time's done yeah you get a call from the same agent. Yeah, oh, it's a call for me. Coming to me. Yeah, an audition. Oh, see, you know.

When was the last time your agent called you and actually had something for you? Specifically for you. Not trying to get through you to your daughter. It doesn't happen that often. It's only about that stage, you know. But it's fine. I'm still battling it away, mate.

But yeah, as you say, very proud. She's awesome. But at the same time, I'm like, that was my thing. Have another thing. Well, the other joy you have as an adult is you can crush kids' dreams. You do that. You have that power as well. You're like, no, I'm not driving to that audition.

Oh, missed a call here. Don't know who that was from. Anyway, you're still winning emailing. Yeah, that's right. You've still got no, I'm not driving to that audition. Oh, Mr. Cool Hair, don't know who that was from. Anyway, you're still winning emailing. Yeah, that's right. You've still got something, mate. I'll fire up a couple more emails. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. And yesterday in the office, quite a commotion, right? A guest, well, he wasn't even here to come to the radio station,

was just here for a function that was going on as well. Someone we met years ago, a lovely guy, Lincoln Lewis is his name. Now, I never watched Home and Away. So for me, I'm just like, he's a lovely guy. I know he's an actor, very successful actor in Australia. But for people that love Home and Away, huge, huge. He's rugby league legend Wally Lewis's son. Was he Jeff on Home and Away or something like that?

He was Jeff on Home and Away. I was watching Home and away or something he was jeff on home and away yeah i was watching home and away when link lewis was on it yeah it was huge hot blonde aussie beach babe yeah isn't he and he's a great guy like we met him before we were doing our tv show many many years ago and he's a great guy and he popped into work he's hey boys and so we went and had a chat with him kind of in an awkward spot in the sort of doorway you know between the office and the foyer. We didn't want to invite him in. He wasn't authorized personnel.

So we met on neutral ground. We stayed on our side of the fence. Kind of like a, what was the Great Wall? Oh, the Berlin Wall. Berlin Wall, yeah. Kind of that sort of situation. We had our side, he had his side. But it did make for an awkward conversation setting.

Oh, yeah, because people would need to go to the office or out to the bathroom or whatever. You know, that was just things going on here. There's traffic in the middle of the conversation. We had to hold the door open. Yeah, we kept the door open for the whole conversation. Lovely conversation. As I said, he's a top dude,

but didn't realise that the whole office were very, very excited that he was in the building. Well, a certain section of the office, a certain demographic of the office. And very disappointed that we didn't bring him into, past the doorway into the office to sort of introduce him to everyone. Yeah, like Ashley, who we work with. I don't think we're going to name anyone, but all right, we have.

The wonderful Ashley. She's a lovely lady. She kept walking in between the conversation, going in and out and going to the toilet. Now, this was a strategic move on Ashley's part, she said. We found that out later, right? She asked us, she's like, why didn't you introduce me to him? I kept walking past pretending I had to go to the toilet.

And I was like, yeah, we were talking about it. He was like, geez, that lady's leaky. No, he didn't mention it. He's lovely, he didn't mention it. But I did notice that she went in and out, and I was like, oh, she's got stuff to do. I thought she just had An adventurous meal The night before

So apologies We should have introduced We were just having a conversation We didn't want to make a scene Or anything like that Who would have thought For us to Because we've never been

As popular in the office No Who would have thought For us to gain popularity With our colleagues All we needed to do Was hang around With a hot

Famous Blonde actor Yeah Who would have thought That's all we needed to do was hang around with a hot, famous blonde actor. Yeah. Who would have thought, Ben? I know. That's all we needed to do. It is funny, though, because, I mean, when you watch a show and you're really into a show, it's like you see somebody and you're like, oh, my God, but someone else that hasn't

seen it, they're like, I don't know. It means nothing to me. This is why hot guys can't work in radio. This is why we, as an industry, have committed to the Argos over the years because productivity would slip. Can't have everyone whooping off to the bathroom for a couple of minutes. That's right.

This is why I'm here. I know my role in the industry. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, a couple of days ago, our 10-year-old Kogan lives on the West Coast. He saw our ads on TV

where we get some kids to come up with some marketing ideas for the show. And he had a genius idea, gave us a call, and we talked to him on the radio about how we should get a mascot for the hits. Yeah, and we've thrown it out to the people. Now, what I've realized over the last 48 hours with people chucking their suggestions in, and you can actually, kids, you can head to thehits.co.nz and download a form there where

you can give us an artistic impression of your creative vision of the mascot. And you can win $500 as well. So draw your best mascot for the hits and we might choose yours. But what I have realised is you can't trust the people. I see why the left government try to control us all. We can't be trusted. I know.

You know? If we left it to the people you imagine the sort of mascot we're going to end up yeah yeah even on the hits i was like oh surely surely it'll be a bit more but but there's these rogue characters that creep through and i appreciate don't get me wrong i appreciate the laughs along the way but we can't have something that we can't wear out in public no we can't have a penis as a mascot for the Hits Radio station. Although funny, we have to put some poor, underpaid radio school graduate in this mascot costume.

And I think about that because back in the day, we used to have a silly sports show. That was the first TV show that I ever made. And we decided because sports... Can I just say all of your shows have been silly. Yeah, well, true. None of them have been serious, hard-hitting journalism. No, but back in the day, this was one of the sillier ones.

And we were like, we need a mascot. And we got a mascot costume. And so we'd spend our time in the mascot costume for skits and various things you do. We'd all do our time, young sort of 20-year-olds in there. And it was a really interesting experience inside a sort of novelty costume. Are they breathable? Not really. You can't see much and then you get, even though we're like

probably 20 years old or whatever, you get kids coming up to you, giving you hugs, high fives and stuff and you'd feel an obligation, even though you're not paid by anyone, to keep the head on because you didn't want to take the head off in front of the kids. Stay in character. Absolutely. You're there to do other things

but you can't destroy the dreams and aspirations of the youth sometimes for hours like for hours you'd be in there you'd be at games you'd be filming stuff we went one of us went to like a tv show recording to try and get on tv that was a three or four hour thing we're getting the head on just because there's kids around and you didn't want to photos and things and you don't't want to ruin kids' childhoods as well. Another occasion, we had another mascot where we were like a Grinch costume. And we used to do it. This was a very silly idea. It was the Grinch who stole sports.

So we'd turn up with people playing sports things and momentarily steal their item. Like go, hey, pass us the ball. You know, dressed in a costume. They'd go, okay. And then you'd run away. Always bring it back. But they didn't know that at the time and so one time generally when someone takes something of yours and runs away you think well that's the last you're going to see of that item yeah and so we stopped the segment soon after that we went to a golf course and i was in the

grinch costume that day on the golf course and these guys were putting on the green and i was like walking up there and i was like i'll just take their trundler full of golf clubs away. I'll run away with it, get to the trees and then I'll bring it back. No harm, you know, no harm. So they're watching me and I grabbed the trundler and I just took off and I just heard this guy go, oh, you're dead, bro. I was like, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh. As they sort of gave chase after me.

Quite a big guy. So they can't see the cameras either. No, I couldn't see the cameras at the time. And I was just like, I went from running and I was like, oh, maybe I need to just sort of slow down and sort of think. As he jumped on me with a golf club, golf club broke across my back. Well, fair enough too.

Because it was like, and I was just going, it's for TV. It's for TV. It's for TV. Like I'd say. It's for TV. I'm not stealing. I'm not stealing. The guy was so apologetic afterwards.

I'm so sorry. But you're like, well, no, what? It's our fault. It was a silly idea. We stopped it after this. Had to pay for his golf club and everything. But yeah. I love it how you're like, he smashed a golf club in two across my back.

And you're like, oh, fair enough. Fair enough. He should have done it over my head, to be fair. And then you paid for the repair? Yeah, well, because he launched it. I mean, it was all our fault. But yeah, it was a very silly idea. So there you go.

That's what can happen in a mascot suit. Obviously, the Hits one won't be quite as bad. This is what we don't want. We don't want golf clubs being broken over in turns backs. It's not the end goal here. We've all been there. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, got into a discussion about your neighbours.

Most people have them, don't they? Unless you're Mike Hosking, you refuse to live next door to anyone. Yeah, true. But the berm, the strip of grass on the roadside, which is outside your house. Many cases you're sharing a berm with a neighbour, aren't you? And there's no greater billboard for passing motorists or passing passengers to go, oh, I tell you what, there's some disdain in that neighbourly relationship

if one of the neighbours has mowed their side of the berm but left a clear, distinctive line in the grass for their next-door neighbour. It happens quite a bit, though, doesn't it? But what I think about the boom, there's no real consistency. Like sometimes it will go over half the property, other times a quarter, other times a fourth.

There's not, you know, there's no real, they really haven't, the council, when they're putting it together, it doesn't quite work out. No, but they used to, the council used to look after it. So it wasn't an issue. Yeah, true. And now it's become a thing where sometimes

you'll drive past and you go, geez, things must be tense there. Three quarters of the things mowed and they've left a metre of grass just on that neighbouring side of the fence as well. There was a story too. Somebody who worked here said that they had a strip of grass up their driveway, had a shared driveway. You know how you've got the concrete with the grass in the middle?

Yeah. Their neighbour had mowed just their half of the grass Which technically Technically they're doing what they need to do Technically they're doing what they need to do But Yeah but Nothing makes you look pettier as a neighbour

They're just mowing a clear line in there as well I love the people that just don't bother You go past There's mowed, burned, mowed, burned And then all of a sudden there's Mo Burn, Mo Burn, middle of the side of there's just like a Amazon forest. Just like, they're like, hey, not doing it. Council can do it or I'm not

going to do it. There's probably some missing persons in there if you look for them. Yeah, it doesn't matter. And then the council has to come along and they have to spray the dead grass stuff on the side because it's starting to grow over the road as well. I saw one the other day, about a metre and a half high. Jeez.

Brilliant. I can't imagine you would let it burn. Well, you've put fake grass down in your property. I want to put fake grass at the front as well. On your bird. Well, just because that's the only bit of lawn I need to mow.

He's got AstroTurf down. Yeah. Yeah. It was great. It's just that little annoying, like, and honestly, it will take me two minutes with the lawnmower to do it,

but it's just one of those things you're like, eh. Would you recommend putting AstroTurf everywhere? Just AstroTurfing the country. Well, I don't know. It would save a lot of mowing costs. Jim's mowing wouldn't agree with that. And I feel like there's a lot of health benefits and great benefits for the environment. The fact that there's trees and grass and stuff.

But not at your house. My dad, he's obsessed with mowing. He mows his berm in Christchurch. The neighbour's one, I think he's pretty much doing the whole street. He's probably halfway through bloody Hagley Park at the moment. He loves it. Well, he could do that idea that we had, the Mr. Berms idea. We have

Mr. Burns from The Simpsons, but it's Mr. Berms and he can go around and we can get him a little truck. He could be Mr. Berms. Excellent. It's an excellent idea. We can do that in Christchurch. So now there's a new podcast out.

It's going to be hosted by How To Dad, Jordan Watson and Clint Roberts. New podcast is going to be out today on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the studio, guys. Thanks, guys. Here we've got a brand new podcast called The Parenting Hangover where we are pretending to know how to parent our children. Like all of us, we have no idea.

So it isn't one of those podcasts where we're experts or we're bringing in experts. There's no experts here. It's just we're all winging it and we're talking about winging it. You listen to it to make yourself feel better about your shortcomings as a parent. Yes, exactly. And we talk about it as a podcast to make ourselves feel better about our shortcomings as a parent. Therapy exactly. And we talk about it as a podcast to make ourselves feel better about our shortcomings as a parent. Therapy loop.

It's a complete circle. I find that as well. When something happens with the kids or something, if it's bad or shocking, whatever, I'm like, at least I can talk about it on the radio. I can talk about this

and people will relate to it. And then the text machine lights up and it's like, Ben, I've done that before, mate. I've left my kids with a pack of chips in the car for two hours. I haven't done that. Well, I've been to the casino. We know what you do, Ben. I think done that before, mate. I've left my kids with a pack of the chips in the car for two hours. I haven't done that. Well, I've been to the casino.

We know what you do, Ben. I think as dads, though, we should probably talk more about parenting. Exactly. And those kind of, the podcast, look, we're not trying to attack any other podcast, but the ones that are angled more with the expert advice, I think kind of scare dads. Because to try and get dads to listen to a parenting podcast could be a bit difficult. But look, we're just- Could be a bit difficult but look we're just could be a bit boring

for dads too yeah yeah yeah but we are just the couple dads around a water cooler talking about everyday life stuff as trying to figure out

how to operate these things that was a direct attack at other podcasts that was shots fired baby shots fired that's part of our marketing strategy all these nice

parenting podcasts just trying to do good you're trying to take them down do you have a best bit of advice that you've been given, any of you, as a parent? Is there anything that you kind of stick to or you pass on to anyone listening right now? You know what my advice to new parents is and friends who are having kids?

You've got to set the tone for them. I like to say to them, give up on your life as you know it. The sooner you accept the fact that that part of your life is over and that you are now tied to responsibility as soon as you do that you can enjoy it you can lean into it come to the parenting harrier for a really good time okay guys it's a good time but as soon as you accept it as soon as you go this is life and it's actually beautiful and it's actually great then you can start to enjoy it but when you're man, can't wait till I get some time back on the golf course, give up on it, man.

Yeah. My best advice isn't that deep. Mine was from my dad, and it was trip your kid up when they're learning to walk and laugh about it. So when your baby is stumbling, you know when your baby's one year old and they stumble and they're trying to walk and they're losing their butt, just give them a little nudge and they'll fall onto their butt and they'll go to cry.

But if you just say, oh, look at you, you're all're all right get up it stops them from crying about everything as they're trying to learn to figure these things out okay that's a controversial method like we said there's no expert advice on this podcast maybe there should be don't suck the air out of the room don't be one of those parents that as soon as they have the smallest little fall or bump and you're like oh that scares the crap out of them and they start to cry. Now, because our kids are a bit older than yours, a bit of advice I'd say is enjoy it. Like, it goes so quick. It does, it does.

You know, now my son's 13 years old and I'm saying things like riz and it's killing him on the inside. He is dying slowly on the inside. And you know, I'm like. You couldn't be more embarrassing to yourself, right? No, but there's a period in life where they think you're the coolest people in the world

it's over it's gone for me at 13 it's over it's going with my 10 year old it's gone real quick but you've earned that right to embarrass him

13 years in the trenches you're allowed Jono's like it's my favourite thing in the world like saying these things that gets an eye roll I even did it in front of

Sienna his daughter and she's like she had to remove herself from the room she just leaves. Oh, my God. Jono's killing my vibe. You guys are both dads, obviously.

And you might know a bit of dad jokes. You enjoy dad jokes? Jordan hosted a TV show all about dad jokes. Yeah, I did. I deleted that from my brain. And I was on it. I want to see who's the fastest to the punchline. Okay.

What do you call a fake noodle? Foodle. And I was on it. I want to see who's the fastest to the punchline. Okay. What do you call a fake noodle? Foodle. And pasta. Jordan, all right. Okay. Two peanuts were walking down the street. One was... Assaulted.

Yeah! This is back. What do you call cheese that's not your cheese? That's a cheese. There we go. And I think this might be the tiebreaker. Why don't you buy anything with Velcro?

It's a total rip off. Yeah, Jordan Watson. You got it. You got it in the end. Well done. Jordan Watson, How to Dad and Clint Roberts, hosts of the Parenting Hangover, a new podcast which is out today on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. Thanks for coming in, boys.

Appreciate it. Thanks, guys. Thanks. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now we're looking for a mascot for the Hits radio station it was suggested to us by 10 year old Kogan after seeing the ads on TV for

the Hits, where the kids call the shots kids come up with ideas for the radio station so we need your suggestions 0800 THE HITS 4487, what should the mascot be? We'll get a costume made for the Hits radio station. And the mascot be we'll get a costume made for the hits radio station and i think we were discussing yesterday after the show that new zealand worldwide but new zealand as well has had a rich history of mascots haven't we some beautiful mascots in the past you were

talking about a bee in wellington buzzer bumble was an iconic one in wellington for many years i think it was a whole family for buzzer Bumble. It had an elaborate backstory. The birds and the bees definitely got carried away there. There was Ricky the racist rhino. Not true. Trent the trouser snake. Mate, you just, you make, your credibility, these are the things that you lose credibility

because next time you'll say this thing and then we're like, well, everything you say, it's the boy who cried wolf theory. Yeah, no, the credibility went years ago. I know, but every now and again you're like, it's true, I'm like, don't believe you. I know, but every now and again you're like, it's true. I'm like, I don't believe you. I know.

And then I get frustrated when I am saying something's true. I know, because I'm like, well, what would I know? Because you just make up stuff. Well, I won't mention any of the anti-depressant, anti-the-web. All right, well, I need to come up with an apology, though, to do with mascots. Well, yeah, before we go ahead with creating a new mascot, and please, if you've got any ideas, text 4487.

We'll get some brainstorming happening next on air. But we need to clear the skeletons from our closet, don't we? All the mascots as it may be dangling there. And I've managed to track down our big boss, Jason Wynn-Stanley. Good morning. Hi, mate.

It's Jono and Ben. How are you? Oh, good, buddy. Up to? From your sixth favourite breakfast show in the building. Really's Jono and Ben. How are you? Oh, good. What are you up to? From your sixth favourite breakfast show in the building. Really? Well, only six. Well, top ten? Top ten. Have you filled out the employee survey yet?

There's probably a few backed up in his email box, right, Jono? Yes. Are you talking about, have I filled out the employee survey? Yes. I would have thought you would have, Jono. Ben, questionable. Jono gets your email, Jono, you get a bounce back Yes. I would have thought you would have, John. I'd be unquestionable. Yeah, well. I just emailed Johnny. He'd get a bounce back saying, I don't check this email.

I might get back to you in the next five years or something. That is honest. He's not lying. That's honestly my automatic reply to my work email. Yes, yes, sure. Now, Stato, talking about the untrustworthy Ben Boyce, we need to cast your mind back, I would even say, 13 years ago. Probably even longer. Now, back

in the day, a TV show, the first TV show they did, Pulp Sport, and we had a mascot, a fox mascot. You stole that mascot from me. For years you've been saying that we stole, we, look, can we just say

we borrowed the mascot? We did not know that you were taking it until it turned up on the TV. And then apparently you would say, that's our mascot when you saw it on TV, and they would lie. Oh, no, we'd just say, hey, hey. I mean, who's to tell? The mascots look the same. It might be, it might not be.

That was a fox mascot, I think, wasn't it? Rocks the Fox. Yeah, Rocks the Fox from ZM when ZM was a rock station. Exactly. And then I think I saw it catch on fire in one of the final episodes. Then you burned it. Look, hey, it survived.

It survived that. It's sitting in a bag in my garage. Stano, I need to bring it back. Is it really? No, it is. For 13 years, Stano thought, oh, that mustn't be our mascot, but it was.

A confession. I'm sorry, Stano. Yeah, bring that back't be our mascot. But it was. A confession. I'm sorry, Stano. Yeah, bring that back, please. Bring it back. I'd like to see it immediately. Yeah. I'll tell you what. I'll fill out that staff opinion survey.

There's going to be a couple of home truths about my colleague here. Well, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to log on to my email. I'm going to fill out that staff opinion survey, and I'll make some home truths. I think people you work with, do you have a friend at work? No, I don't. He's now my enemy.

Not just the mascot getting burned. He'll be burning my contract, I think, after this. That's for sure. Exactly, exactly. I've got that off my chest. Now we need to move forward. We need your help. Oh, Andrew, the hits, 4487.

What should the hits mascot be? It's up to you and we'll get it made and we'll have a mascot for the Hits radio station. The kids have decided we need a mascot, so what should the mascot be? You can head to the hits.co.nz. You can actually draw your vision, your creative vision for the mascot there as well,

but we're going to go... You get 500 bucks, the winning one of that as well. Oh, you cash as well? Yeah, so download it at the hits.co.nz, draw a mascot, and the kids could win $500. $500 that Grant Robertson won't get his filthy mitts on either. Not today's budget, right? Tax-free cash for you.

We've got Chanel on the phone. Your idea for the mascot? It's a real-life dog with, like, New Zealand clothes. A real-life dog? A flag on the back and, like, a silver fern shirt with all black shoes. Oh, okay. So we've got to get a dog in dog clothing, but bespoke dog clothing. But then we have to look after the dog, feed the dog, take it to the vet, get it shot.

We have dogs, so maybe we could use one of our dogs, I guess, as an option, right? Yeah. Yeah. Or wear a couple of old dogs. Yeah. We could dress up in the New Zealand regalia. Thank you for your call, Chanel. Appreciate it.

We're going to go to Taupo. Jacqueline. Jacqueline, you're on. What do you... Morena. The morena to you. The hits mascot, you're locking in what? A quaver.

A quaver? It sounds... It's a musical. Most mascots Are for one person This is because You guys are Always together

And so you could be Both in the same costume At the same time Ah I see So the note Is connected together And we play music

On the hit That's quite clever That is deep I was too up For the competition To draw it And they're all Over the web

You can just find them I had to find the name But yeah They're called a Quaver A Quaver A Quaver is I had to find the name. Yeah, they're called Quaver. Quaver is beautiful. Quaver sounds like something that would go on at a Dunedin flat. It does. I don't know what it is, but you wouldn't want to talk about it the next day.

Something in the Quaver. That's a really good suggestion. I love it. Appreciate it, Jacqueline. Go to Hamilton. Tina, you're on. We're brainstorming here for our mascot. What's it going to be?

Definitely a sausage. When I think of Jonah's it going to be? Definitely a sausage. When I think of Jonah and Ben, I always think of a sausage. Silly sausages and also the silly sausages that ate a sausage. Every budding's in the country. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, sausage is good. Well, it's an easy costume to get as well. What I like about that, it's affordable.
