The ZM Podcast Network. Hello everyone, welcome to the after party. You asked for it, so we're going to give it to you. In the podcast group, they said, we want more. And Claude said, no more. And I was like, okay, fine. Fine, we'll do one. Maybe one tomorrow.

We've got to talk about something that happened this morning. I know exactly where you're going right now. that happened this morning. Oh, I know exactly where you're going right now. Are you? Someone. Nah, it's fine. Someone blocked the toilets here at ZM. I can't imagine who that was. How dare they?

How dare that person? How dare they? They've been here five minutes and now they've just blocked the toilets. Disgusting. Ellie Harwood's back for five minutes. She blocks the toilet. Literally. Honestly, the bane of my life when I used to work here full time was those toilets. For some reason, they've got a very shallow or tight U-bend or something.

I've got a tight U-bend. I don't think that I use that much toilet paper. But the thing was. Was it a poo? It was a poo. Yeah, it actually was a poo. And I even pre-empted a poo? It was a poo. Oh, yeah. And I even pre-empted this. So I did the poo.

I flushed. And then I did the toilet paper as a separate round, you know? Yeah. Oh, see, that's good. Yeah. So I was already trying to avoid it. Claude's like, why are we doing this? We're doing a podcast.

And we're talking about poos. Yeah, no. So even the double flush, I should have done a trio, I think, in the end. Yeah, I should have done halfway. The quartet, baby. Yeah, the quartet, probably. yeah now so even the double flush i should have done a trio i think in the end yeah i should maybe yeah probably you know what's been happening in my house because i talked about it on the podcast like maybe a couple months ago or month ago is our toilets got blocked at home and had to get a plumber over and they flushed the toilet and it's where you have shit in your backyard and not ideal not ideal. Not ideal.

Did I tell you guys it happened again? Oh, no. What? Yeah. Plumber rounded our place on Friday last week. And it cost us $1,000 last time. And they were like, oh, it sticks. It sticks in the piping.

Because then we talked about how. I was like, probably the tampons are flushed down there. but i don't do that don't do that anymore ella i've learned good i've learned no you're still i hardly ever get my period i'm on the pill it's fine um but anyway so the plumber's come back over again this is full investigation where he's like okay so it's blocked again this is like the second time in a couple of months like what's going on and we started to do experiments with the toilet paper that we're using right yeah we changed toilet papers about three months ago or four months ago where we've been bulk buying toilet paper from costco oh smart and it's fantastic toilet paper we really like it like smart. And it's fantastic toilet paper.

We really like it. Like it's real like thick, I reckon like three ply. Nice, it's got to be at least three ply. Like solid, nice toilet paper. And we did a test with our old toilet paper and then the new toilet. Anyway, the Costco toilet paper doesn't disintegrate and it clogs the toilet. Oh, my goodness.

So that's what it is. And that's what we figured it out oh interesting you should have seen that needs to be a toilet paper needs to do that yeah it's so bad for the environment if it's not breaking down and so my partner's here going look look at these two glasses so putting toilet paper in the glass look at this one and then look at this one and i was like yeah i see what you're saying so you're doing a whole science fair experiment yeah oh my god i want you to print out a science board like you would an intermediate it was a full investigation hypothesis yeah yeah and we had all this extra toilet paper so we gave it away on the community page there were some very

happy people oh no no we warned them we warned We warned them because the house that we live in is quite an old place. Like all the plumbing is old, so all the piping is quite old. And so we did warn people. Yeah. We did warn them. We said, Merry Shitmas. It's up to you guys. Like just letting you know we're getting rid of it because it clogs toilets.

Wow, that's interesting. Is it? I've just spent four minutes talking about toilet paper. Yeah. Yeah. Have you guys ever given away stuff on a community page? Makes you feel like a real. Yeah, I have.

Makes you feel like a hero. Yeah. What have you guys given away? I had some like old, like a cat, like a playpen situation. Yeah. I'm like, it's just taking up space. Someone will use it. And we gave it to someone who said yes. And they came over and they're like, I work at a cat rescue. And I'm like, thatpen situation. Yeah. I'm like, it's just taking up space. Someone will use it. And we gave it to someone who said yes, and they came over,

and they're like, I work at a cat rescue. And I'm like, that's perfect. Yay. And then you're like, I am doing the Lord's work. I'm just the best. What about you, Ellie? I remember when I moved out of my old house, we had a whole lot of outdoor furniture that we just didn't want anymore,

and we put it on the community page. And this family came along, and their daughter had just moved into like a student flat and they just needed some cheap outdoor furniture and it was really nice it was like handing the baton over of like here you go you serve me well and now you guys can stand on those and drink on them like we did yeah isn't it cute makes you feel so good what about you ella i was thinking no but off that story you're the person getting the free stuff. Off the street, literally. No, in Christchurch when I lived there, our flat was breaking up.

We were all moving places. And we had these cheap couches. But instead of giving them away, we just gave them to the first years. So they inherited it. Cute. It was quite cute. That's nice. Disgusting couch. That needs a bizzle.

We found that on the side of the road. That's so gross. More like there's jizzle on it. It needs a bizzle like we found out on the side of the road that's so more like there's jizzle on it yeah people did people did they caught us at the end of the year oh not cool man we didn't even know that's yeah oh my goodness we could have walked in at any time that's all yeah i was kind of annoyed about that we are we. Yeah. Don't jizz where you sleep. We gave away one time because when we first got our dog, Whitney Houston, we used to order raw food. Like, you know, when you're like, oh, only the best. That's what mum does.

Yeah, only the best for the dog. It's quite disgusting. And you need a lot of freezer room to, like, freeze it, and we just didn't have it, so eventually we changed. But there's one time we ordered it and they accidentally sent us two lots like two boxes of this stuff and we emailed the place because they're a kiwi company and we're like hey you've sent us double and they're like there's nothing we can really do about it just have it how do you get that mixed up yeah i don't know and they were just kind of like just keep it because by the time we come pick it up and it'll be defrosted.

Anyway, just a rigmarole. Anyway, so we gave it away on the community page. And this woman, I've never been hugged so much. They'd just gotten a new puppy and she was like, you know, it's expensive and, like, thank you so much and blah, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, it was so nice. That's so nice. Feels good, eh?

Yeah, maybe I'll go home and give away some stuff. Yeah. Don't get too crazy though. Spar's going to come home and be like, where's all my shit? That's what happened to me when I went away to Treasure Island. That is shocking. Yeah. Really?

I went away to Treasure Island and my partner and bloody me and Saga who works here, who's filled in for this show before i get home and they'd put all of these clothes of mine on like pages to sell really yeah oh my goodness did they make money yes did you get it no what why did that why did they do that because i have too much shit i'm a hoarder i am yeah and i totally agree there's too much stuff but they were just picking and choosing and some of the stuff i was like well to be honest for me i'm just like don't get rid of anything but yeah yeah yeah they were just like making money on the side on the hustle so cheeky on the bloody hustle they were my sister's trying to get on the hustle

because she's 16 trying to get it like a part-time job but also you're 16 like you'll work for the rest of your life that's true um and so she cleaned my room for ten dollars hustling hustling that's helpful a lot of money ten bucks ten bucks i feel like i'd pay someone ten bucks to clean my room if it was a good job and she did wow she's very clean and like you should see her room she's 16 and looks like she's like 30 with her room. Really? Oh, bless her soul. She's got pillows galore. Can she come over to my house? Yeah, she'll sell your clothes. Yeah, next minute I've got nothing.

I'm like, where are my underwear? But the room is so tidy. Yeah. The room's tidy because there's nothing in here. Yeah, literally. She is pristine. Literally nothing. Right.

Well, does anyone have anything else? No. Oh, I was thinking for tomorrow. Yes. If people wanted to put in the podcast family page questions for Ellie now that you're back. Oh, that's a nice idea. AMA, ask me anything.
