The Hits, with the Jono and Ben podcast. Thanks to Challenge, putting the service back into service stations. Ben, I want to start the show today by throwing myself under the bus. I have an option not to do this, but I also know our requirement to provide content for the radio show, and that outweighs the embarrassment, doesn't it? I know you've suffered the same fate multiple times. You're like, you know, I'd prefer not to play play this but then what else would i provide for the radio show this morning it's the only shining light i think when something bad happens in your life you're like well i can probably talk about this on the radio that's the one it's always good to have a

silver lining isn't it yeah uh so we got security cameras uh installed on the house just you know by the front door so that if anyone tries to break in, I've got a good high-definition image of them and I can take to the police and they can probably go, listen, mate, we're grossly understaffed. We're probably never going to catch this person. That's why I installed it. And I thought when the camera was put in

that it was purely visuals only, like a Charlie Chaplin movie, you know? Right, yeah. All on mute yeah sort of thing and then it dawned on me yesterday i was like dear god what if these things have microphones attached to them and i get home every day after the radio show no one else is home and the dog i've mentioned it multiple times he greets me like I'm a long... You know when you see those videos,

those ones that make you cry of the soldiers returning home and their dogs and years, and you're like, oh! It's like that every day with my dog. It makes me feel like a bloody legend every time I come home. Sometimes I think, are you taking the piss? Yeah, he's acting a little too strong. Like I literally just saw you last night.

It's all fine. So he comes home and we have a little bit of interaction. Yeah. Purely between me and the dog. Okay. Not fit for public consumption. But then yesterday I looked up at the camera. I was like, oh man, I hope there's no microphone recording what's being said.

I don't mind the visuals. It's just cuddling and padding. Yeah. But then I looked back on the footage, Ben's just cuddling and padding. Yeah, yeah. But then, I looked back on the footage, Ben Boyce, there's audio. Uh-oh.

Go, go, go, go. Come here, come here, come here. Come on, come on. Come on. I talk to my dog like a baby. Yeah. I do. I wouldn't have thought that was you. No.

Well, you can't prove it was me, apart from the high-definition security footage. High was definitely the word I was thinking of, too. Jeez, yeah. So where does that go? I don't know. On the radio. Yeah, but to the security,

they laugh about it at the end of the year, like their security wrap-up, they're like, the Christmas party, and they're like, all right, well, here we go. Here's all the highlights from this year. Because I'm sure they sure they don't but at the same time that would be so good where does it go like do you know does it go to a like a cloud sit joe or did we talk before we wanted to make a show the world's best cctv footage great big great stuff yeah i'm guarantee if you everyone everyone who's got a camera would have a gold bit of footage you'd have a series that would run on for longer than the chase.

And how many private conversations have you had in your house now that? Oh, you're like, oh, God. What have you been talking about? Oh, my God. Stuff I've been saying about the people inside the house, outside. Passive-aggressive frustration. Yeah. All on camera.

The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Yeah, now, the David Beckham documentary that's on Netflix, a four-part documentary. A lot of people talking about it. All positive stuff too. Everyone's saying documentary, yeah.

No, it's really, really interesting. A fascinating insight into their lives and the ups and the downs that they've had over many years. Victoria Beckham, Posh Spice and David Beckham. But one of the things

that I really resonated with that David Beckham, he's Spice, and David Beckham. But one of the things that I really resonated with that David Beckham, he's very, I mean, he's into Lego. I was like, oh, mate. And he's very organized too. He's extremely organized. He warms the cockles of your heart with this little piece from the documentary. So he was displaying, you know, he went through his wardrobe

and he was like, it's all kind of almost like color-coded.'s all folded up it looks like a display like if you go to a shop as well and then on display is a separate coat rack and this so those are my outfits for the rest of the week wait wait wait explain that to me i prepped my week yeah it used to be just the night before but Is that a newish obsession? Yeah it is actually I love the music they put behind The whimsical music to paint him out like a complete psycho As well Yeah

Classic documentary play there Yeah so so organised He lays out all his Hangs up all his clothes for the rest of the week. Seven days' worth of outfits. But Maya brought this up yesterday because it did sit with me, so I appreciate the organisation, but how does he know the atmospheric conditions on a Thursday?

Well, he's not coming in the office with shorts like you, mate. Is it all suits? It's all suits and nice stuff. So I imagine he'd have a jacket and a shirt situation each day. So it's all very flash, probably super expensive stuff. So I imagine they'd have a jacket and a shirt situation each day. So it's all very flash, probably super expensive stuff. Yeah, imagine it. The Amanos, the Goochos,

the bloody Louis and old mate. Yeah. So, yeah, very, very, very organised, David Beckham. And you appreciated this. Now, have you taken inspiration and are you next week going to line out all seven outfits? I do the night before. Sometimes when I know stuff's coming up later in the week i do start to get stuff i'm

always packed three or four days before my family before a flight yeah definitely i'm ready to go well you did you woke your family up at one o'clock in the morning to catch a flight just to beat the crowds at the airport and this this lady who's on the internet she's called miss rachel uh she's a youtuber as well she is is doing something that I made, well, I suggested to my kids when I did wake them up at one o'clock, but she's doing this every day with her son. I dress my little boy for school at night. We put on a nice new shirt, sweatpants, super comfy, great for jammies, and then when he wakes up, we just throw on sneakers. Someday I'll teach him to wake up for school and get dressed,

and that will be a very good thing to teach, but I can't do that right now. And that's okay. I'm doing my best, and so are you. All right, enough from you, Rachel. So she's putting a kid to bed in the clothes that he's going to wear to school the next day. Great time saving the following morning. We did that.

As I said, we're on our way to the airport. We're like, kids, if you want to, just put your clothes on now. That's fine. Great way to do it. Yeah, but not every day. We want to know, are you New Zealand's most organized person? And could you organize yourself to call us right now? Are you New Zealand's most anal person

I had a friend whose father would pre pour cereal into the bowl and have the spoon ready to go this was amongst other preparations he had already done the night before but I'm like what is that saving 35 to 42 seconds maybe

it does all add up so what are you doing? Are you preparing the night before? Is it meals? Is it your clothing? Is it like getting your kids sorted the night before like this lady? The psychology behind organisation and very organised people, very interesting.

I'll tell you about it next. It dates back to your childhood, Ben. The hits. The Jono and Ben podcast. I did the David Beckham documentary on Netflix after I watched that and saw the laid out. All is closed for the week and he's super, super organised. I want to know, I owe 100 the hits. Are you more organised than David Beckham?

Impress me with your organisation. Great test here, 4487. I'm so organised I get all of my showering done on the weekend. I don't know if that's organised. A week's worth of showering done in one hit. Does this people? Well, yeah, I guess. So the type of people we're after.

Have you checked in for a flight in December? Have you got an empty email inbox? Have you got your Christmas shopping sorted for the next five years? Oh, I imagine some people might have done that already, eh? Generally, I'm not overly organised. But this is probably one of the most organised things I do in my life when it comes to condiments. I have my condiments lined up in the fridge in category, international category.

So we've got the Asian category. You've got all the wonderful Asian sauces, the sweet, the sours, the sesame dressings, the kewpie mayos, the wasabi. They're all sitting in the same category. Then you've got the salsas. We head over to the South American, the Mexican've got the salsas We head over to the South American The Mexican flavour Halsas Hot sauces The American category

The tomato sauces The mayonnaises The Vegemite Sits on its own In the Australian category Alright I basically racially segregated All of my condiments

But that's it Just for ease Just for ease So many bottles You know Because all the bottles Can jam up in one space On that top shelf

Yeah You're putting them for ease Okay That's good. That's nice organisation. Text here, 487, fishing. Night before fishing, everything is laid out. All pieces of clothing.

I imagine because fishing, you're starting early. You're getting out there early. So that's probably, you know. Also the life of a breakfast radio announcer. I do load the clothes out. And it's only because I'm not stumbling around in the dark trying to find underpants at three in the morning, you know. John, he's our US correspondent.

He's phoned in from Portland, Oregon on iHeartRadio listening on iKnowYou. Johnny? Kia ora, good morning. How are you guys? We're going all right. It's today the day that the Breakers, New Zealand Breakers, play in Portland. You're going along, aren't you? Yeah.

Speaking of organization, I've got a spreadsheet for that. I've organized 10 uh kiwis to go to the game awesome i got a column for who's paid and who hasn't and what everybody's in now uh you you did your message and you said i'm a spreadsheet guy you've got spreadsheets for everything so talk us through them i've got a terrible memory my whole life and as soon as i discovered spreadsheets i'm like this is the way to go. So I got, you know, 30, 40 on the go at any one time. 30 or 40 spreadsheets?

Oh, I mean, at one time, yeah. I've got hundreds in the bank there. Wow. Back 20 years. What are you documenting? Are they like to-do lists? What are they? There is a to-do list.

I've got one that's a combined budget and a calendar. They're in the same spreadsheet so I can see what's going on and what everything's going to cost. And I've got a packing list is probably my oldest spreadsheet. I've got a spreadsheet of everything I've ever packed for every trip in the last 20 years on there. Wow. So every trip I have planned, I'll go to that

and I'll weed out everything I need for their upcoming trip and pack according to that. I love it. Because I know you're a huge fan of the show Taskmaster as well, and we understand you've even got a Taskmaster spreadsheet. Yeah, there's a group of people on Reddit that their task is to watch every single episode ever. And there's been over 500 from like 17 different countries.

So I'm working my way through that. And I'm getting there. I've watched 426 different episodes of Taskmaster. Jeez, he's an organized man. You know when you write stuff down on spreadsheets and stuff? That is one thing. If I was to pass on any life advice to a young person, I learned this way too late in life.

Write stuff down. Write a list, yeah. It is the ultimate life hack. Oh, because otherwise you're like, what was that thing I did? Yeah, list. It really is. That, sunscreen, another big one. And the other one is have a spare license plate you can chuck on your car

so you never get a parking ticket. My three bits of life advice. Yeah. Hey, John, take care of yourself. Enjoy the game, and hopefully everyone pays up on that spreadsheet. Cheers, guys. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast.

But, Jono, you know, we talk from time to time how I'm a little bit of a germaphobe. I don't like to, try not to let it get away with me, you know, because I feel like if I overthink some things, it probably would, you know, like being in a public pool,

I probably started thinking about too much. I probably wouldn't go there. So I try not to. I'm in a giant pool of lukewarm soup, human soup right now. Yeah. You don't like touching door handles. I sometimes,

when we're both there, I know your feelings and thoughts towards door handles. So I'll take that. I'll take the hit for the team. I'll put my hand out there in harm's way. And hand sanitizer, I tell you what, drenched in 99.99% cleanliness, those hands. But I will do it.

As I say, I try not to let it get away from me. You could eat off those hands. They're so clean. Yeah. But I just thought I'd explain that because this is something that I was doing last week, even more horrifying for myself. Okay, higher stakes then.

Yeah, so it's up there for that time that my family and I were passing through that subway station in Los Angeles on the way to visit some family. And my family were having subway and ironically in a subway station. And I went over and I was eating it with them and I wiped my mouth with the napkin I thought one of my daughters had used and they looked at me in horror and went that's not our napkin somebody else's that's public transport napkin yeah international like you don't know what diseases are over there yeah you know your homeland diseases and this thing happened to us again we were visiting family in Australia and we were staying in some hotel accommodation for a few days. And every morning I'd go past the reception area, and there was a lovely sort of a big container of water.

And it was one of those waters that have got, like, chopped up bits of cucumber some days or lime pieces other days. I do appreciate it. I love a person who goes to that level, just have a glass of water. Yeah. Adding in, you know, just a little bit of pizzazz to the water because it can be, you know, publicly known as quite a boring, bland substance. So I'd keep going past.

Every time we'd go past this reception area, I'd grab one of the clean glasses from the left, I'd fill it up and I'd put it upside down with the glasses on the right. And I kept saying to the family, you need to try this water. You need to get the water. It's all free. They've cut up cucumber and gherkins and it's bloody got everything in there yeah we got our drink bottles we're fine and i keep going again guys you're missing out you're missing out this water there's little bits of green leaves on top yeah exactly

and after i've been doing this for days and days raving about how amazing this water is and the family getting involved i was having a drink and then i noticed someone from the hotel come out with the clean glasses and then they put that on the side that i was like oh hang on on the side i was like no the clean glasses go this side they're like no no no they're like as far as i know every day when i bring out the clean glasses they go on this side these are the dirty glasses i'm like what oh and i for days and days have been the dirty glasses. I'm like, what? And I, for days and days, have been grabbing dirty glasses that other people had drunk from, filling up my water, and then placing them upside down next to the cloud of ice. And we're like, oh.

Just, oh, so yeah. The less I think about that one, the better. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. We're joined right now by a friend of the show, a psychiatrist and author, Jo Pendergrass. How are you doing? Yeah, good morning, Jono and Ben. Lovely to talk to you.

Hey, nice to talk to you. Now, Jono and I, we're going to pay special attention to this chat because as a parent, you've been in our shoes before, a parent of teenagers, and you've written about it in a book called When Life Sucks. So is it that bad? Yeah. Yeah, so I've got a 20-year-old and a 22-year-old now, so I've just graduated from the teenage years.

Most of the teenage brain is closed for renovation. There's very little wiring to the frontal lobe. So, you know, they're all kind of revving engine and accelerator and not much in the way of brakes and gears. So parents do need to kind of be the brakes and gears of the car and realise that it isn't an adult brain you're dealing with. It is a teenage brain and they've got big emotional centres and reward and pleasure centres

and not much sensible kind of decision-making power. It's kind of approaching your young person as a work in progress rather than the final product. Do you think there's more today for teenagers to deal with, you know, with anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disabilities? I mean, the surveys show that kind of at least one out of three teenagers currently has very high levels of psychological distress and about 50% have had to reach out for some mental health support.

So, you know, about 30% of girls and 15% of boys have got disordered eating and a huge increase in anxiety and depression, especially after the COVID pandemic. Huge number of families struggling and teenagers struggling at the moment. So, you know, and that's what I'm hoping my book will a little bit give parents some practical strategies of what to do while they're kind of waiting for some help or if help's not available. Kids, all the teenagers, they're going to make huge mistakes sometimes. How do you handle that? Yeah, I mean, I think it's important to kind of remember that that's part of the process.

I have a parenting strategy called benign neglect where you step back and do slightly less so you put the helicopter parenting strategy on the helipad and kids will stuff up while they're experimenting, trying things out but that's a really important part of them developing into being an adult to have some failures and then kind of work out sort of what went wrong and what they might do differently next time. Because I think a lot of us have quite a sort of safety net, send the rescue ropes down all the time.

But if we can allow some natural consequences to things, like if your kid's always late for school rather than like driving them there because they've missed the bus, kind of go, oh, I guess you'll be late for school and you'll have that embarrassment of walking in kind of late because you weren't ready on time. So that natural consequence can be a lot more powerful than parents nagging the whole time. Alcohol is an interesting one too

because obviously parents have different views on alcohol and when kids can and can't start drinking. Yeah, no, absolutely. And I put a lot of kind of the research about alcohol into the book because it was quite alarming when I started, you know, when my teenagers were getting to the kind of wanting to drink stage and I looked into it because there's a lot of evidence, you know, that each year earlier that teenagers start drinking alcohol,

even small amounts increases their risk of significant harm from alcohol. So the main message is to kind of try and delay the first use of alcohol as long as possible. And that involves not giving your 14-year-old a beer at home, because that has been shown that parents giving teenagers alcohol who are underage at home actually increases their risk of alcoholism rather than what, you know, it's a bit of a myth in New Zealand and Australia that, oh, give them a bit of alcohol at home and then they won't binge drink. But in actual fact, it's shown to be the opposite.

And so in a lot of ways, you've got to model the kind of drinking behavior you'd like your teenagers to have. So if you go, you guys aren't allowed to drink, and then you're having a wild party where everybody's binge drinking, it's, yeah, they're kind of going, really? That looks fun. I'm going to do that. My daughter at 14 for her 15th birthday did a three-page document, a proposal of why her 15th birthday needed to be an alcohol party. Unanimously declined by the parents, but she put in a lot of effort on that proposal. Great spreadsheet. Great spreadsheet.

It's interesting, yeah, because you don't want your head in the sand with that sort of thing as well. Yeah, yeah. And obviously, if your teenager's climbing out the window to go binge drinking with friends while you're doing the zero tolerance policy, you might need to move into harm avoidance at that point, which is generally trying to supervise any drinking. Because it has been shown that if kids are already drinking, if there's an adult present, they drink less. So zero tolerance if possible, and then move into harm avoidance mode if they are already drinking. Well, Dr. Jo, thank you so much for your time.

Really fascinating chat. Your book is out now. It's called When Life Sucks. Thanks for your time. Yeah, great to talk to you. Take care. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Now, I was in a lift yesterday with my family,

my wife and my kids, and we were just going to visit someone and they were in an apartment building. And so we're going up in the lift and there was a couple in there like a you know

sort of middle aged couple in the lift as well as we're about to take off now a lift is it can be an awkward time no one really knows do you talk do you not talk

and particularly when you have conversations to other people where there's other people in the lift they're like well they're clearly listening to the conversation as well

what I liked too about a lift is sometimes I was had a situation earlier in the lift, they're like, well, they're clearly listening to the conversation as well. What I like, too, about a lift is sometimes I had a situation earlier in the week on Monday that you have done absolutely nothing, but the person who gets out before you thanks you. I've done, I've played no part in this process. I didn't even push the button, the level button you wanted to go to. But it's nice. They're like, thank you. And you're like, no worries. Thank you. I didn't even push the button, the level button you wanted to go to. But it's nice. They're like, thank you. And you're like, no worries.

Thank you. But I had a moment yesterday. So my wife and the kids, we're in there with a lift and there was a couple in there, a lady and a guy. And the lift wasn't working. We hit the button a few times.

They hit the button a few times. So it was a bit awkward. And then the guy, I guess, to try and break the silence. He's like, let's get some banter rolling here. He was like, oh, the lift's not working. Must be a female. And he said this

and we all sort of took a moment and then I was like, did he just say what I think? And I looked at my wife who was just staring towards this guy like,

what did you know? And no reaction, nothing. No one got. He's like, come on guys, I'm trying to get some morale going. What are you saying?

And then he went to me. You know what I'm talking about, eh, buddy? He said to you? Yeah, and I was like, and I just went, oh, maybe don't rope me into this. Like, yeah, I'm like, I'm not confrontational at all, but I'm like, hey, maybe don't rope me into this. And Jesus, it was an awkward ride after that. Because no one said anything after that. What was his partner doing? She just didn't say say much but she didn't look super impressed by it

like yeah he's trying some banter hey we all try some banter but i was just like the old sexist stuff's a bit hit and miss though isn't it you're really gonna try and read the room 1950s is that what the elevator's taking us back to uh ironically a lady called lady called Sarah came up and repaired the lift. Yeah, so there we go. Something that was wrong on many levels. Was he in trouble, you think? When they got out of the lift, were their words going to be heard? Yeah, well, we got out first,

but probably. Probably like, Brian, Brian, Brian. He's like, this killed him, the building site. Oh, jeez. Yeah, there we go. The Hits, the Jono and building site. Oh, jeez. Yeah, there we go. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. The cost of living has been talked about a lot over the last 12 months, particularly with the election coming up this weekend,

and we wanted some cash-saving tips, good or bad, yesterday. You chimed in with a good one, a very specific one. At the theme parks. Oh, yeah, yeah. Where the novelty photos, what's your trick for not paying for them uh you just well yes you get off your ride you run over to the screen you have a look at your your silly faces you were hurtling down a roller coaster as they snapped you uh and you just take a photo of the screen with your camera but they've cottoned on to this the theme parks are fighting back they They've got big almost like watermarks

all over the screen with logos saying no photos, no photos. You press on. You press on. You take a photo. You're literally,

the one you've shown me which is on our Hits Breakfast Instagram, your face is going, you're on a rollercoaster painting, you've got the screaming face going on

and there's a big no smoking sort of sign over the top of your face. It's a camera and it's crossed out there's no cameras yeah some great tips

coming through 4487 save on rental mortgage move out of your house live in a bus stop that's an option free rent free rent

Mike is phoned through we'll get him to him very shortly but yesterday we had some good tips was it Kirsty who had a hack

for stealing recipes. Oh, I do it quite a few ways. Quite cheeky actually, like when I go to the supermarket and stuff and there's a long queue at the checkout, I'll grab a magazine and read it and if I like recipes in there, I'll take a camera shot of it.

Beautiful hack. Yeah, good one. She, the thrifty lady, and Mike, good morning. G'day, guys. How are you today? We're doing okay. You got some cash-saving tips that we all need right now? Oh, yeah, I think I do.

It's one that's worked for me and the family anyway. What do you do? So we always try and buy meat in bulk. Whenever you see the bulk specials come up at the supermarkets, no matter which supermarket it is, try and cash in on it as best you can. Right. So Meat Week, they'd shake in their boots when you walked through the doors there. Pack and save. I mean, if you can buy whole rumps from whoever you can or whole bits of meat and then either

get them to cut it up or cut it up yourself and put it away in the freezer. It's a hell of a lot cheaper way to do it. Good on you. The other thing, too, is if you're driving down the road and you see a cow, put that in the boot. I don't think you'd do that. Take it home.

Or you could be vegetarian and you save a lot on meat, too. That's a great cash-saving tip. I think you'd make a lot of farmers unhappy with that idea. Yeah, that's true. Someone actually just texted in saying, I spent three months on Mee Goreng noodles to save money. Oh, yeah. Huge vitamin deficiency.

I wouldn't recommend it, but that's a good way to save money as well. Oh, it could be. Maybe if you're at university or something. Yeah, good on you, Carl. You're going to have a great day, mate. Appreciate it. Hey, thank you very much, guys. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast.

The game of rugby this weekend. Of course, Sunday morning, the All Blacks taking on Ireland. Ireland never won a knockout game, even though they're the favourites to win this game. They've never won a knockout game in the World Cup. New Zealand, South Africa and France, only teams to ever play in all the quarterfinals of every World Cup as well.

But it's going to be really interesting. Wonderful stats there. Who were they brought to you by? They were brought to the internet, mate. Thanks to the internet. What did radio hosts do before the internet? Just would have been some pretty vague information. Or they might have actually had to do their job properly.

But thanks to the internet, we don't have to. Ben, something that I believe can make everyone feel like a true celebrity what's that just an everyday act so you know the humble new zealander zebra crossing yeah yeah on the road uh and the traffic most most times has to stop for you sometimes you don't sometimes i drive past i didn't see someone and I'm like, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Put your hand out the window. Pure mistake. But more often than not,

you do want to stop. 80% of the time people stop for you to cross the road. Now, I notice there's two types of pedestrians when they're walking across from one side to the other.

One are just the normal people who just cross the road like a normal person. The others are the show like a normal person. The others are the show ponies like me. Okay, and these are the people who enter the zebra crossing with both sides of traffic stopped on the road, and they love to give a wave to one motorist to acknowledge, and then a wave to the other motorist.

Yeah, okay. Completely unnecessary, but it's the only time that I ever feel like I'm walking down a Hollywood red carpet. Yeah. Waving to the motorists saying thank you for stopping and not running me over on the road. It's a nice acknowledgement though. I mean, it depends on how big your wave is. Oh, I go big. You know me.

Yeah. Like I just a little, a little, you know. Even crossing the road, I make it a theatrical experience. A little finger up or, you know, just a little acknowledgement, a little nod of the head or something is quite nice particularly when you are a motorist just to go okay yeah this person appreciates the fact i could have run the motor the road rules thank you for yeah obeying the laws you're dead right being boys but the other that i mean it falls probably into the same category when you're driving and you let someone merge in front of you just a a finger raise. It's nice.

Just a simple lift of the finger off the steering wheel. That's all that's required. Or I love a double flash of the old hazards. Oh yeah, I do like, I've been getting

into that recently. I do like the little hazard little acknowledgement. I never know what the timing is of me pushing the button and the hazards flashing. Yeah. So I don't know

how many flashes the people are getting. But you hope that that's been seen. Just a little gesture. Yeah. It's nice. Hazards, they get you out of anything I don't know how many flashes the people are getting. But you hope that that's been seen. Just a little gesture. Yeah. It's nice. Hazards,

buddy, they get you out of anything. Don't they? Chuck your hazards on. You can literally park on top of someone in a wheelchair in a car. I don't think you'd know. You literally can't. Inside the foyer of a Westfield ball.

You can park anywhere with your hazards on. No, they won't. The Hits, the Jono and Ben podcast. Spilling the tea on Hollywood's A-listers. Kardashians. I have met every single one.

He plays for the Chiefs. He's won the Super Bowl a couple of times. I love that a lot of people, a lot of Swifties saying he's finally, he's been put on the map. He's won the Super Bowl a couple of times. I love that a lot of people, a lot of Swifties saying he's finally, he's been put on the map. He's won the Super Bowl a couple of times. He's a big deal in America. Yeah, everybody already knew, like, who Travis Kelsey was. Now, the remarkable thing about all of this is that in America, like on Amazon, there's a show that basically stars Travis's brother

and Travis to some extent. And because the brother who plays for American football for the Philadelphia Eagles had thought about retiring last year. He was going to make it his last year. So he had a camera crew following him around. And they have one of the most popular podcasts in the world, The Two Brothers. So they had the Amazon crews following them around and stuff like that. And so it just so happened to be released in America the week before all of the Travis and Taylor Swift went

forward. So, oh, let me, let's all go watch this show. And then it just so happens that Taylor has, of course, her movie coming out this Friday, you know, all of this attention. And then, of course, her movie coming out this Friday, you know, all of this attention. And then, of course, the NFL is partnering. And there's also rumors that Travis and Taylor have already filmed the Super Bowl commercial. And also, the NFL has always wanted Taylor to be part of the program, to perform. However, she always had a sponsorship with a different soft drink beverage.

And now that that soft drink beverage has gone by the wayside with the NFL, everybody thought that perhaps she would come this year, but definitely they would like her next year. And they're showing her what a wonderful partner they can be. So do I believe that the relationship is real on a friendship scale? Yes. Do I think that they're going to get married? No.

So a hell of a partnership deal there. Hell of a literal partnership deal there with the NFL. Yeah. I mean, and the NFL is just promoting it and promoting it and promoting it. They took their official page and they're just promoting it because, I mean, it's really good for the NFL. I mean, Travis Kelsey merch shot up like whatever, a thousand percent. Really? Ratings for the, oh yeah.

His uniform went from selling pretty good because he's a, you know, a decent player, but to being the number one jersey sold. A lot of Swifties getting on board. Wow. A lot of Swifties getting on board. A lot of great Swifty puns he got injured. Saw someone say, shake it off, which I thought was good. Yeah.

I mean, I think the NFL realized, okay, these people have a lot of purchasing power. which I thought was good. Yeah, I mean, I think the NFL realized, okay, these people have a lot of purchasing power, so the NFL is taking full advantage of that. Well, he's a very handsome guy, isn't he, Kelsey? Yeah. I hope his face never gets injured when he's playing. You like that mustache he's got going?

Yeah. He's got the mustache at the moment. His mom, I love the fact that the mom goes along to the games as well, and obviously both the brothers, were they, they were in the Super Bowl last year, weren't they, against each other?

So the mum was there. And the dad is also, the dad, the mum and the dad have been divorced for a long time, but they stayed living in the same house

and everything so that way they would have enough money for the kids to be able to play sports. Staying together for the kids and slowly learn to hate each other.

they get split, but you guys should watch the show. I think you'd really like it. Yeah, no, we will. We will. Hey, Enty, thank you so much for your time, mate. You go and get back to work, mate. Yeah, do.

All right. All right, you guys have a great week. See you, buddy.
