Now this is a special podcast within our podcast. We started something. We bought a burner phone from the gas station. As we talked about a little yesterday, we always think that maybe a burner phone's used for things that are a little bit sketchy. But not necessarily. I imagine some people
Starting point is 00:00:40 they just roll with a burner phone. 027-2633-285 You can visit the social media pages of the Hits Breakfast. The number's up there as well. We went to the States once on a work trip. We bought a cheap... We bought a burner phone for work-related purposes.
Starting point is 00:00:54 Did we? Well, no, you weren't there. No, sorry, I went to the States. Okay, where's this hole you're digging? Sorry, I can't... I've been to the States a few times. No, it was all for legitimate work purposes

I think you've written on a few bathrooms, sort of cubicles around town and stuff as well. Get this number out there. We're going to put it on community notice boards, whatever. You can call it at any time. But it is a legit number.
Starting point is 00:02:06 We will check it every day. I remember back in the day where you would write your number on a bathroom wall, wouldn't you? And you got results. It was Tinder before Tinder. All sorts of stuff was going on. It was for a good time. I can't promise a good time, really. Well, it depends what the good time is. Go and play mini golf.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Oh, yeah, I could do that. Yeah, I could probably promise that. But for a good time, good time, I'm not putting myself, I'm not confident in that regard. An okay time? Or just a time? Just a time. Yeah, we'll fill in some time.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Unforgettable, but not saying whether it was good or bad would be what I would do. We should call Phoenix back. Okay. Have we got Phoenix's number there, Producer Joel? Yeah, we've got it here. Yeah, thank you very much, Producer Joel, running the buttons here. And Producer Joel, uh publicly and loudly and
Starting point is 00:02:46 arrogantly said he was going to run through the winter months wearing nothing but shorts has worn long-legged trousers for the last two days i've noticed just really trying to you know up my game up the standards around here you look good you look good get a bit of a dress code going i reckon you know yeah you do look great hopefully phoenix will answer uh and feel free to leave a message on the burner phone as well It's quite exciting every day we get to check it And we don't know what to expect And where this podcast will head
Starting point is 00:03:10 Phoenix? Hello there Phoenix, it's Jono and Ben Who? Jono and Ben Oh no way Yeah, yes mate You rang, we just played your message as part of our podcast on the burner phone,
Starting point is 00:03:26 and we thought we'd call you back. We've given you a shout. Oh, my gosh. Thank you so much. I seriously didn't think that you guys were going to listen to it. That's why I was like, who's calling me right now? No, we're very loyal to clearing the voicemail on the burner phone, Phoenix. Now, tell us about Phoenix.
Starting point is 00:03:43 What are you doing? Where are you? What are you looking? Where are you? What are you looking at right now? Oh, well, I'm actually waiting for class to start because we've got the school holidays coming up. Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, for everybody over here. I'm just chilling with the rest of the staff members. So I just
Starting point is 00:04:00 had to run out quickly and take the call. Oh, you got some... Are you a teacher? Yes, I am. Whereabouts are you teaching? At Auckland Uni. Oh, very cool. Why does the university start like in March or something? Wait, am I live right now?
Starting point is 00:04:18 No, you're a part of the podcast. We're in the podcast right now. So we can... If you're happy to be part of the podcast, if we're happy to continue what you've said so far. I'm kind of nervous about it, but whatever. No need to be nervous.
Starting point is 00:04:33 You're in the safe hands of, well, the shaky hands of Ben Boyce and John O'Friar. Yeah. The two idiots, right? The two idiots. You know us.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Should have spent it. We should have gone to university. I went to, I did a degree, but it was through the, the polytech, you know, but it's still a degree. Cool. Still a degree. We should have gone to university. I did a degree, but it was through the polytech. But it's still a degree. Oh, cool. Still a degree.
Starting point is 00:04:48 What are you guys up to right now? You guys just taking calls? We're doing a podcast. This is the bird of fire. This is what happens. Who knows where it's going to head to. What do you teach at university? I'm doing social work.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Oh, good on you. Very cool. Now, why, Ben, I know you just started asking this question. Do you tell me why the university students don't start university until like July, August? I don't think it's that late. But it's a late start, isn't it? I'm not really too sure.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Everybody's different, I guess. Are you at Auckland Uni, did you say? Yes. Tell you what, when I first started in radio, my friends were going to university. And what I didn't realize was at university was shadows bar which is open at 9 a.m. or something so I'd finished work in the morning boom straight to the Tuesday morning straight
Starting point is 00:05:36 to the bar probably a bit sad and bleak now. He's still trying to do it now. Oh, it's a bit
Starting point is 00:05:48 sad, mate. Yeah, come to Shadows if you got. I don't
Starting point is 00:05:51 even know that you guys had a podcast. I think I must have seen it on Facebook,
Starting point is 00:05:57 but I haven't actually tuned in. I tuned in to the pink one that you guys did. Oh, yeah,
Starting point is 00:06:02 we talked to people. That was really cool. This is the problem. This is why we're having to do more podcasts, because no one's listening to our podcast. that you guys did. Oh, yeah, where we talked to people. Yeah, that was really cool. Well, this is the problem. This is why we're having to do more podcasts because no one's listening to our podcast. Pull back the curtain.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Oh, is that a podcast that you guys do when you guys interview celebrities? No, we do a radio show on The Hits, Breakfast, but we also do, yeah, the podcast right now. So you're on episode, this is the episode, we're in the middle of episode two of this podcast for The Burner Phone. It's like a spinoff within our podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Oh, sweet. So how would I be able to re-listen to that one? This one right now, you can listen on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. It feels like great, great. It feels like we scripted this. It's great. You're doing a wonderful job.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Phoenix, you have a wonderful day. We're giving you a shout out on the podcast. It's been lovely talking to you. Yeah, thank you so much For giving me a call Like it was really surprising But hey it's a blessing For today
Starting point is 00:06:50 So thank you so much I actually Was going to order Some fish and chips Oh good Yeah good Yeah fish and chips I was actually going to
Starting point is 00:06:57 Make an order Because I didn't even know What to say So I thought Oh no I'll just call up And say hello anyway Oh and order fish and chips On the line
Starting point is 00:07:03 Okay what would you go What would you go to At the fish and chip shop Oh man I would just call up and say hello anyway. Oh, and order fish and chips on the line. Okay, what would you go? What would you go to at the fish and chip shop? Oh, man, I would just go for just a fish burger, chicken burger, and just some chips. Oh, that's a good combo. I see. I'll tell you what I've got into lately at the old fish and chip shop.
Starting point is 00:07:16 The calamari rings. Oh, calamari rings. Yeah, nice. You forget they're a forgotten item on the menu. Yeah, those are really nice. Yeah, they are. They're nice. They chuck them in the deep fryer and they're bloody,
Starting point is 00:07:27 who knows what they are, but they end up tasting good. What I do, somewhere along the line, fish and chip shops were generous with the fritter game. Remember that? Always give extra potato fritters. And then it became a thing where people would order, my dad would order like three, but on the expectation we'd get like five.
Starting point is 00:07:42 And then be annoyed. Well, those days were like they're generous with their portions and amounts, while nowadays... I don't know if they're still doing it. He'd get annoyed. He was like, well, they didn't give us the free ones. You're like, but you didn't pay for the free ones. What I appreciate too is it's the same meal.
Starting point is 00:07:57 It's the same menu from the top of the cape to the bottom of the buff, but it varies in flavour. The fish and chip menu. Yeah, yeah, I understand. Doesn't it? It does, you're right. From one shop to the other, you'll get a completely different tasting fish and chips.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Yeah, that's so true. Oh, Phoenix. But nowadays it's different. But hey, I'm definitely going to get one of those today. Oh, enjoy, enjoy, Phoenix. Thank you for being part of our second ever Burn a Phone podcast. Oh, man, thank you guys so much, Jono and Ben, man. You guys are the best.

Jono's going to head along to Shadows Bar. Well, that's the end of episode two. Met lovely Phoenix, a social worker at Auckland University. The people that you come across.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Yeah, that's very cool. No, that was worker at Auckland University. The people that you come across. Yeah, that's very cool. No, that was the end of it. Oh, that was like. The people that you come across. That was meant to be a thoughtful. Well, you sort of said it when I was in flexion that I was like, I better wrap it up. I'll change the inflection.
