For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

Or wherever you get your podcasts The ZM Podcast Network I'm having a party A party for two No, three Again, because we're one producer in, one producer out at the moment Oh yeah, Ella's the one that's here today. Hi Ella. Hi Ella.

Brie. Yes. I've got Clint's wallet. How much money's in it? Shit ton. Is there? Why do you have so much money? Well that's Australian money. Oh, that's the money you won from the casino. No. It's casino money. I've got to take that to the currency exchange.

I've got money I need to take. Can you take? Actually, no, I don't trust you. Nah, I don't trust you. I've got like 300 pounds. Ella, take that bag. Is that true? No.

You should have said yes. Look, you can see the outline on the outside of your wallet. That is both a dangerous rumour to start and a dangerous place to keep your condoms. Yeah. Because it could slip out and drop on the floor at the petrol station. No. Because it goes off.

Because it goes off and because it's getting friction in there the whole time. Condoms have an expiry date. Also, they're getting roughed up in your wallet. Might not be safe. Well, you want to use it regularly. I don't have one in here, okay? Whose responsibility is it to bring the condoms? The male's.

His. Yeah. The one with the penis. Sorry. Yeah. Yeah. What if both partners have a penis? Oh, good point.

Then both should have one. They should both be wearing one. They should wear two. Well, yeah. Well, they have to be responsible for themselves yeah right okay they should wear two yeah double it up yeah right um not something that's why it's so crazy to me that only purchase in a long time that's why it is so crazy to me to think about that only women have the pill. Yes. Like, isn't that wild?

It's why I got a vasectomy because up until you do that, all of the burden for contraception is on the women. That's what I mean. Like, when you really think about that, like, just in society, it's just for how long it's been the responsibility of the women, but two people are involved. Yeah. Two people are literally tango.

Exactly. Yeah. It's crazy. And it's the – Like if that was me. It's impressed upon the woman because she is the one who would – who stands to lose the most as well. You know, like a guy can run away from a pregnancy.

Well, that's the thing. Or a baby, but a woman can't. If you're a woman, you can? Like a guy can run away from a pregnancy. Well, that's the thing. Or a baby. If you're a woman, you can't. So you're more likely to take it. But doesn't mean it shouldn't be, you know? No, no, I'm not saying – yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's crazy to think that, eh? Like if I was a male and I was in my 20s and going around

and, you know, having fun, being safe, but I – in my mind I'd be like, I wish there was some sort of pill I could take to keep myself and my sexual partners safe from unwanted pregnancies. But then there's that whole thing about that frontal lobe which doesn't develop until later in life where you are able to think about other people. Or is that an excuse we've been using for too long yeah we're letting really young guys off the hook

it's an excuse in my opinion we have to think about it though because yeah we literally end up with a baby I just think yeah it shouldn't be our like completely our burden I'm not saying I think everyone should be responsible for themselves in an ideal world absolutely in an ideal world I quite like

the everybody has a vasectomy until they're ready. Oh, my body, my choice. My body, my choice. But fertility is a dodgy one. What if you ruin your fertility for the rest of your life? But all those videos of Trumpers where they get interviewed about abortion, no, no, no, no. And then they're like, well, yeah, contraception.

They're like, yeah, contraception. And then they talk about oh vasectomies then and then you can get it reversed and they're like no no i think the whole point is obviously you know the government will have the pretty much the decision over what a woman does with her body when it comes to pregnancy and that's why they were asking the question where they were like, you know, what about giving males vasectomies when they're, you know, young so then it pretty much eliminates. Government mandated vasectomies. Yeah, government mandated vasectomies.

And then all these like Trump men are like, no way, that's crazy. Why would you even say that? Yeah, not to get too sad, but in America right now, a lot of women are just like piling up on Plan B pills and contraception pills. They're like trying to pile up. Do those go off? And that's the discussion as well.

They would. They 100% would, yeah. So it's kind of like, well, can't really. God, isn't that, oh, God, that'd be so scary, eh? I can't imagine living in America right now with my – like if I was a mom with my kids and I had daughters, I don't know if I would want to – You'd be terrified, wouldn't you?

I'd want to leave. I'd almost just want to leave. But then – You can't. No, that's your home. That's where your family is. That's where everyone is. Plus, financially, a lot of people don't even have that opportunity.

No. Yeah. It's literally insane. I'd be trying to get to California or New York. Who was out there? I don't know. It looked like... Some people were taking photos of us.

What? Were they people who work for Trump? This is a bunch of people who just came in and started taking photos and then left. This isn't even live yet. How do they know we're talking about it? Whoa. No, yeah, it's fuck. It's sad in America.

It's really sucky. I saw this amazing video on TikTok and it was of this judge where she essentially was listening to what, I don't know exactly who he was, but he worked for the government and what bills they were proposing and putting forward and where she was just kind of like, what you're asking will be literally the death certificate for so many women and I can't believe.

And it was so crazy. Like she would like relay back to him what some of the bills were and he would just so nonchalantly just be like that's correct like there's no emotion no no no this guy this guy like she was like what you're just to clarify what you're asking me to push through is this and this oh And it was like crazy stuff. Like, you know, if a 13-year-old girl gets sexually assaulted, you know, she's not allowed to terminate the pregnancy. And he's like, correct.

You know, and just so nonchalantly, like just no emotion. Crazy. It is weird with this whole election because I guess it's funny because we now have sides of the internet. And so my side of TikTok was fully like Kamala. And I was like, yeah. Which is why it's so hard for some people to understand the result. They're like, how could this have happened?

But it's because we all siloed into our own belief system. That's scary, hey. It is. Because that is what news is pretty much now and has been for a while. But that's the only thing that news is going to be in the future. Yeah. So there's going to be – Well, there's three, isn't there?

All these different channels, you know, whatever you're fed is what you'll believe. So there's people who have – let's go left and right, for example. People who have left-leaning beliefs are fed everything that confirms their left-leaning biases. Everybody who is right-leaning gets their right-leaning biases. And then there's an entire community of people who don't live online, who aren't on TikTok every day, who are just living their life, and they go and they vote for the person that whatever policy

affects them, they just vote on that one. Like it could be one policy where they go, I like that, and just vote based on that. So they might not have. one. Like it could be one policy where they go, I like that and just vote based on that. And there'll be a whole swathe of Americans who voted one way or the other and they're not insanely right or

insanely left. It's so interesting because I lived in America for a couple of years and I have a lot of friends over there and I'm friends with those people's parents and I have a lot of friends over there and I'm friends with those people's parents and I still have some of them on Facebook. And it was so interesting to me because these people that I was very good friends with their whole family

and stayed at their house and, like, you know, and they just were posting all of this really extreme Trump stuff. And I was just kind of like, wow. And I just never would have thought. Like it was real extreme, not nice stuff. Oh, okay. Like in favor of Trump. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I just would never have pictured them to be, you know, extremists like that. It's really interesting when policies fall under like religious beliefs. I just feel like that's such a grey area when it comes to like government. Yes. Where it's based off a religious view. Yeah, what's the church and state thing? You know what I mean?

They should be in an ideal world kept completely separate. It should be separated. Of course, if you're fully religious or you have some sort of belief, your policies will bleed into that. But it's just so extreme. And it shouldn't be that extreme. No. Not in an educated, developed country like the United States.

Exactly. Well, that's the thing. Because that's what it comes down to in terms of like the abortion laws is a religion it's a religious driven thing that's been really interesting because i did grow up christian so that's been a really interesting like whole conversation and topic to like yeah how do you feel about it well i remember even hearing about it and my church friend who's a couple years older than me i knew she was quite like left okay but still at church and so i remember asking her because obviously i grew up with like it's a baby like you wouldn't do that you're killing it yeah and hearing her

pro is it pro abortion pro pro life pro life is that no no pro choice pro choice yeah hearing her pro choice and her reasoning for that was like the first, I guess, seed of like thinking about the other. Wait a second, what do I actually feel about it? Yeah, so sitting on that, it's been like really interesting. And it's a funny one because a lot of times when I've had the conversation with other people, you give the examples of, well, what about if someone was,

you know, sexually abused? I mean, there's so many things that come. It's not black and white. It's never black and white. And it's such like you can't have a blanket rule. That's the thing, you know? And that's why it's so difficult and so scary for so many women and families. Oh, it is.

That's why it's scary in America with the extreme news outlets as well because they're left or they're right, and so you're not getting any other different opinions. It's so easy to just stay in that zone. Some people just get their news from social media. Yeah, and if you don't. Or fucking influencers. TikTok. Yeah.

You know? And if that's the only place you're getting your news or doing your research, then we've got problems. I talked to Guy Williams about it because he talks about himself as a volunteer journalist, which is a comedy shtick. But he does talk about a lot of newsworthy and political stories. He's very smart. He's very smart.

But he never claims to be a journalist. He's doing satire. Yeah. But then he realized it's scary because People do think That he is a journalist That's the thing And he's like No Watch the fucking news

Well Someone could take A clip of his show Put it completely Out of context And someone sees it In America And thinks it's full serious

Exactly right You know Yeah well everything's taken off And they'll be like Wow the journalists In New Zealand are weird Yeah And oddly tall

Quite racist as well I don't know Aww Let's go Bye Have a great night everybody Bye bye And oddly tall. Quite racist as well. Let's go. Bye. Have a great night, everybody. Bye-bye. See you. Bye.
