Try the refreshing McCafe iced coffee available now at Macca's. Do you guys ever just take your phone and open up your banking app and check your bank account just to see if any magical money's talking? Sometimes. Like the fridge, when you open the fridge,
Starting point is 00:00:22 hoping magical new treats have appeared in there. Yeah, and you're like, what's that chocolate? What's that chocolate? Hello? I always do this. I don't know why. Sometimes if I'm just sort of pottering on my phone and I've exhausted Instagram and the likes. Yeah, once that did happen to me, and it was that, you guys might not get this because you live out yucky west,
Starting point is 00:00:40 but in the Auckland Central, you get the, once auckland central you get the once a year you get the electricity rebate of like 300 bucks oh yeah i remember that in a flat you won't now do i not get that no because you live in the um outer yeah we're on a different even though it's a super city i feel like you know share and share a life yeah because it's a lion's trust or something and they give back to all the electricity consumers every year i I've got it for years and years and years and now I don't. And would you ever be like, whoa, free money? Yeah, I'd be like, what the hell is this? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:09 I got some from the IRD recently. Did you? And I said to my accountant, is this free money? And she said, there's no such thing as free money from the IRD. What was it? Like they'd made a stuff up or? There'd been some mistake and some tax I paid circulated back around to me. Well, you shouldn't have told them.
Starting point is 00:01:26 No, I think they would have worked it out. No, it's yours. It's yours. Because don't they have all these fancy new computer systems that like Yeah, that's right. They can pick up on everything. I'm just going to check my other bank account, joint bank account, see if there's any magical money. Oof, nope.
Starting point is 00:01:42 How's that one looking? Little thin on the ground. Little thin. Little sparse. Yeah, right. It's going through. Where is that? Oh, yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I did open up my personal bank account, though, before, just to check any magical money. And there is some. I forgot that I sold my side tables and they popped it into my personal account, not my joint account. So that way that's free money for you. Oopsie schlipsie doopsie. Maybe that's not going to make its way into my joint account. So that way that's free money for you. Oopsie schlipsie doopsie. Maybe that's not going to make its way into the joint account. Did the fiancé contribute to the buying of the side tables in the first place? Yes, he did.
Starting point is 00:02:13 And he renovated them. Oh, okay. So really that money should be his. He definitely needed a slice. They were a bit rough and he sanded them, painted them. Yeah. Waxed, you know, gave them a nice coat. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:02:21 So he spent hours. Hours and hours. I know, but it's in my bank account. Labor. There it is right there. Freeours and hours. I know, but it's in my bank account. Labour. There it is right there. Free money. Free money. Well, enjoy.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Thanks, Rachel. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fleets, Fawn and Hayley. It's two minutes past six. Welcome to our new Australian visitors in New Zealand. Kia ora. Nau mai.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Haere mai. Welcome. Sorry, the weather's a bit shite now. Rubbish. You missed the good stuff. Yeah, although they're from Australia. Yeah, but that's a real mixed bag. Sydney's had its annual rainfall already.
Starting point is 00:02:56 I know. For this year. Well, that's wild. For overachievers. It's wild, eh? Old flood territory in New South Wales. You're just sneezing. Have you got COVID?
Starting point is 00:03:04 I was just sneezing into my elbow. No, I don't know. I just sat down over here and maybe something in the air. Do you remember how we used to sneeze into our hands? Yeah. And then just go about our day? Yeah. And then be like, nice to meet you.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Did them sanitise? Yeah. Yeah. Those were the days, weren't they? Those were the days, my friend. The sneezing never ends. Coming up on the show, our secret sound, all thanks to Neon. $100,000.
Starting point is 00:03:31 If you think you know what the sound is, your next chance is coming up just before the news at 7 and 8 o'clock this morning with the activators. This is the sound that's driving people crazy. Soundkeeper Al's released a video walking through the second hand store junk and disorderly. I can't watch it because I know
Starting point is 00:03:48 I'll see it and it will land and I'll go oh and then I can't know. Alright well 7 o'clock your next chance.
Starting point is 00:03:55 The top six is coming up. Our big news yesterday. Yeah Britney Spears said I'm pregnant and we were like okay and the top six names
Starting point is 00:04:04 for Britney's baby. I like her post. She thought she was having a food baby. It was all over the show. It was in my shambles of a pregnancy announcement. I'm going away on holiday soon. And I thought, oh. She was like, she went on a diet.
Starting point is 00:04:19 She was going to Maui. And then she was like, but I'm still getting fat. Oh, my God. I'm eating all this food. This sucks. Hang on. I'm pregnant., but I'm still getting fat. Oh my God, I'm eating all this food. This sucks. Hang on. I'm pregnant. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:04:28 I'm having a baby. Yeah. I'm happy for her because this is all she ever wanted. She was forced on birth control for 13 years. Yeah, good on her. So the top six
Starting point is 00:04:36 dealing with the Britney pregnancy news. Yeah, the baby names. Next on the show though, we were talking about the borders being open. Aussies are coming here. Where are we going to go?
Starting point is 00:04:47 We're all leaving. Thanks for nothing, Jacinda. We're off. M by hold numb little bug, ZM. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Well, it's the talk of the town, isn't it, at the moment? The borders are open And I feel like I was focusing on it
Starting point is 00:05:08 In a holiday perspective Like now we can go to Australia We can have a little fun bougie time In Melbourne Go to the beaches Even for a holiday You've got to get the rat test And if you haven't had COVID
Starting point is 00:05:23 That could ruin your whole holiday Because I had a friend that just ruin your whole holiday. I know. Because I had a friend that just went this week and he's like, well, what if I get it? Well, the thing that scares me is like if you get it here, then you're stuffed and you have to stay at home. But if you go over and get it,
Starting point is 00:05:37 are you still stuck? Well, you'd have to stay in a hotel, wouldn't you? Because a lot of Australian states will make you isolate. Part of travel insurance now, you can get the... Get to cover it if you got it over there. Man, that's going to make travel insurance so expensive. So expensive. You know, it's unlikely you're going to get hurt
Starting point is 00:05:57 when you get travel insurance, but travel insurance is still sort of expensive. That's how insurance works, right? There's an algorithm for it. So even if like one in a hundred people have to spend a week in a hotel. Yeah. But they're not going to pay for that though, travel insurance, are they? No.
Starting point is 00:06:15 They're only going to pay if you have to go to hospital. No, I think there's an option of isolation. If you have to isolate before you can come back. But you'll pay out the Wazoo. Yeah, totally. To have that coverage. But that's the only thing that concerns me is getting stuck somewhere. Unless it was like Bali.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Happy to be stuck in Bali. We've got a friend, someone we used to work with, Cam's in Bali. He's just been posting on his story. And like all the shops are like shut. Yeah, all those little like alleyways. Shops and market shops that sell, let's say, non-official... Not Gucci. ...items. Gucky.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Gucky. Yeah. Gucky in the NAB basketball singlets. Yes, and I love Abbey Das. Abbey Das. I always get a bit of Abbey Das when I go over. It's a great fit. So the holiday stuff aside,
Starting point is 00:07:04 people are saying there was an estimate of 50,000 Kiwi would be leaving over the next year to move to Australia, but now they're saying that that number could surge to about 125,000 New Zealanders leaving the country and moving to Australia.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Well, they can expect this look from me on the way out. Where do you think you're going? That sort of, oh, you came home for a bit, did you? Because it was safe under the wing of mummy and daddy. Now you're done. Now you're done. You're not even demanding. Is that what's happening here? But also, I think, let's be honest, Australia pays a lot more for the
Starting point is 00:07:37 same jobs here. Oh, absolutely. And that's like the reality, is that like a lot of people are struggling here and you can get way more money in Australia. So why wouldn't you? And we've always done it. There's always been this brain drain thing because, yeah, they're like, I'm a highly skilled person that can make X amount in Australia.
Starting point is 00:07:55 But over the pandemic, we basically stopped. Only 12,000 people moved to Australia compared to 40,000 the year before. So they reckon 125,000 now will leave. Up to 125,000, yeah. But snakes in your Ugg boots. You know, you leave your Ugg boots on the front porch. Spiders in your crocs. Over spiders.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Crocs in your crocs. Squirrels in your crocs. Crocs, yeah, crocs in your crocs. Koalas with chlamydia. Oh, my favourite animal. I do love a koala. You love a koala. I love a ko and crocs. Yeah, koalas with chlamydia. Oh, my favourite animal. I do love a koala. You love a koala. I love a koala.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Riddled. Absolutely riddled with chlamydia. I'd be happy to get one. Happy to get it off one. Does this mean that the lines in the supermarket in places will be shorter then? Well, I mean, I couldn't help but selfishly go like, I mean, this isn't bad news. Especially because a lot of professional industries are based in Auckland where we are. And Auckland is getting jam-packed.
Starting point is 00:08:47 I'm not going to pick up three or four more rental properties too. So this is great if they are leaving. That's fantastic. And they just want to get rid of the houses. You want to become a slumlord, do you? I could see you being a smith landlord. Yeah. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:09:03 We've all got to have dreams, don't we? Yeah. We all need to benefit from all got to have dreams, don't we? Yeah. We all need to benefit from our country losing a lot of skilled workers. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, a recent study published in the Journal of Psychological Science. Ooh. Ooh. La la la.
Starting point is 00:09:21 It's examined the relationships that people have with their mother-in-laws. Now, it is found that both men and women report more conflict with their mother-in-laws than their mothers, and that mothers report more conflict with their daughters-in-law than their actual daughters. Oh, absolutely not my case. It was my mum and my wife. No, everyone gets on, don't they?
Starting point is 00:09:44 Yeah, everyone gets on very, very well. But that's rare. I think you'd find that's rare. But my mum and my sister are quite similar. You know how when you're really similar with some of it, you can't see it. You have a little clash. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:55 A little clash, clash. I don't think there would be a human being on this world that wouldn't get on with my in-laws. There's good, salt-of, salt of the earth Catholic folk. Who are just the most generous, giving people. I can think of quite a few people that didn't get on with the Catholics. Citation Ireland forever.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Gentle Catholics. I'm sure there were some gentle Catholics that your hands were forced into joining the IRA as well. I really forced myself into my in-laws life. So when I moved from Wellington to Auckland, me and Aaron moved separately because he was still working in Wellington
Starting point is 00:10:30 and I was like, I'm going to go to Auckland. So I lived with his parents in their South Auckland house for just over a year. Oh, wow. And I didn't even really have to ask. I was like, can I come and stay for a little bit? And a year later. They're like, gosh, you won't leave.
Starting point is 00:10:45 That was fun. I used to go home and watch Coro with my father-in-law and have a little goss. Were you all up to date with Coro? Did you have to spend like a few weeks? Having never really been a Coro watcher, do you have to spend a few weeks? Who's that?
Starting point is 00:10:59 Kind of, but my parents were Coro watchers, so I sort of remembered it. It's not like the Coro cast changes that often. They've all been around for about 50 odd years. Yeah, they've been around for a while. So apparently conflict exists with the mother-in-law when it comes to things like childcare. Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Spending time with children, and that leads to some conflicts. Mothers and daughter-in-laws tend to have discrepancies in fitness interests, which can also result in conflict. Take yourself for a walk. Yeah, yeah. Get out there. My son doesn't want to know. Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:35 He wants a little tubby guts. No. Look at that. Look, your bum's all jiggly. You might want to hit the streets. Jeez, that's rough. Oh, dear. So, yeah, you can see why that leads to some arguments.
Starting point is 00:11:46 It's interesting. I remember my mum saying, I mean, obviously my mum is gagging for a grandchild. Yeah. Gagging for one. And neither me nor my brother are interested, paternal, maternal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:00 And I remember my mum saying like, my brother would probably be the more likely of us to have a baby. And she was like, I know, but I would love for you to have one because it's different when it's your daughter because she can get real nosy into my parenting as a mother. But at least nosy with my brother's partner as a mother because that's not her daughter directly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I was like, that's interesting. Yeah. I can see that. You know what I mean? Because that could cause a real like, that's interesting. Yeah. I can see that. You know what I mean? Because that could cause a real, like, you're always going to, like, forgive, forget.
Starting point is 00:12:29 She can probably say a hundred things to you that she couldn't say to your brother's part. But if it was your mother-in-law being like, here's how you parent. Yeah, no. Mum, you'd be like, hmm. Arguments are plenty. Arguments are plenty, perhaps.

Starting point is 00:16:26 You're going to a dock campground. How hard do you go on the camping? Do you go blow-up mattress or are you foam roll-out?

Play ZM. Wow. Do you want to fess up now to the nation? I have to say that my car, I got in it last week and I was like,
Starting point is 00:26:33 something is dead in here. Like, it was so gross. And I just like, eee, and then I ditched it on the ground. There was like four or five sushi trays. Yeah, because I think it's a story, I think it was from out of the UK, that a lot of people have so much crap in their car, a lot of it can become dangerous items. Yes, in a crash.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Yeah, if you break it like 100 Ks, all those objects still travel at 100 Ks. Yeah, and so I think in the UK, they were actually planning on ticketing people. If they pulled you over and your car was a mess. Mine was like, there was some crusty, planning on ticketing people if they pulled you over and your car was a mess. Mine was like, there was some crusty,
Starting point is 00:27:10 I had put an ice block stick that I didn't quite finish the ice block because it was yuck and I put it in the side door or the side door thing and I was like, I'll get that out immediately when I get home.
Starting point is 00:27:17 I was like five minutes from home. Left it there. It leaked through the thing and then into the door and then the door was like sticking. So I'd open the door and it was like. That is filthy. It was so gross.
Starting point is 00:27:30 There was like McDonald's. There was sushi trays. There was like some like something crusted behind the wheel that I must have been like driving and like holding something. It was like spilling behind the wheel. It was so. Every time you go to turn a corner, it would just be sticky. It was gross. And I just thought enough is enough.
Starting point is 00:27:49 Yeah. So I went on, you know, like a grab one and found a voucher for grooming. And I was like, oh, I'll just get a cheap little groom. I never get my car groomed. Right. It seems a bit OTT. Yeah, because they put that stuff on it,
Starting point is 00:28:03 that waxy polish, and they put it on the pedals and everything, and it all gets all slippery. Yeah. So I put that stuff on it, that waxy polish, and they put it on the pedals and everything, and it all gets all slippery. Yeah. So I bought this voucher, and I was like, this is fantastic. I'll book it in. And then I got, when I was driving home, I was like, it's too, I'm too embarrassed.
Starting point is 00:28:15 So I got home and I cleaned it so that I can then take it to the groomers. That's their job. You're paying. No, but I couldn't possibly. Oh, so I'm on TV. Imagine if they saw me and they were like, you're that chick from TV. And then they got in there and there was like ice cream goo
Starting point is 00:28:28 gluing my front door shut. And like four or five sushi trays with like leftover teriyaki chicken. They sit down to watch Have You Been Paying Attention? They're like, that's that manky bitch. That's that manky feral gal. So I gave it a little, I gave it a service before it's getting serviced.
Starting point is 00:28:45 You pre-cleaned before the clean? Yeah, well, it's like people, you know, people who have the luxury or the privilege of having a house cleaner and they're always like, Oh, isn't that clean? Oh, the cleaner's coming tomorrow. We've got to clean before the cleaner.
Starting point is 00:28:56 No. Yeah. And then, but my cleaner doesn't clean the insert thing here and they've cleaned it. I was like, but the cleaner. What are you paying them for? They're a good problem to have. So I wanted to put it to the nation, in fact.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Yeah. When did you service something before it was going to get serviced? Or when did you do something before it was going to get done? Do people like, if you were getting a Brazilian and you were just, you've got a trim, you were like 70s Bush. Would you do a pre? Yeah, because if you don't, it hurts way more. Oh, okay. So you trim before you get a trim.
Starting point is 00:29:31 But not too short as the wax has got nothing to grab. No, no, no, you can't shave. You've got to get your kitchen scissors in there. Pop them back in the drawer. Do you run those under the hot tap before you put them back in the utensil drawer or do you just? Oh, 50-50.
Starting point is 00:29:44 It depends on the day or the time God don't use mum's sewing scissors Oh God no Should have hit the roof they're a heavy scissor too you won't have the dexterity
Starting point is 00:29:51 of a good pair of light snips Alright well we want to take your calls now 0800 DARS at M you can give us a call 9696 to text When did you take care of something
Starting point is 00:30:02 before taking it somewhere to be taken care of? We're talking about when you took care of something before taking it somewhere to be taken care of. We're talking about when you took care of something before taking it somewhere to be taken care of or before someone came to take care of it. Like you're getting your car cleaned. Like you've found a voucher deal for a groom. Yeah, for a car groom.
Starting point is 00:30:20 And I decided yesterday my car was too filthy to take to the groomers. So I gave it a groom before taking it to the groomers. Which defeats the purpose of paying. It doesn't defeat the purpose because they will take it to the next level. But why don't you just stay another 20 minutes and take it to the next level? I don't have the equipment. My vacuum cleaner doesn't quite do the thing and I don't have all the polishes and the window, the glass.
Starting point is 00:30:43 If it's a good one, they use one of those vacuum cleaners that also spits a bit of steam in there and then drags it out and gives the seats a bit of a deep clean to get all your fart dust out. Yeah, I want the new car smell. And I hate to say it, but I do have the leather seats. And a Mazda. And a Mazda. And a little mum Mazda.
Starting point is 00:31:00 It's not a mum Mazda. It's a sporty Mazda. It's a new mum Mazda. It's a new mum Mazda. Thank you. sporty Mazda. It's a new mum Mazda. It's a new mum Mazda. Thank you. A Mazda 3. Thank you. From 2012?
Starting point is 00:31:09 I don't have the polish for the leather. Right, I see. I want to slip off those damn seats. Right. All right, well, some calls in. Briar, when did you take care of something before it was taken care of? Well, it wasn't me, but I have a mum and she was a single mum with four kids, really busy lady.
Starting point is 00:31:30 She used to get a cleaner over to clean the whole house and she was so embarrassed of all the mess that we'd make that she'd clean the entire house before the cleaner would come over. To what support? That's a very, very popular message though. We're hearing from a lot of people whose parents had cleaners. Because you want them to, like, clean the house and make it really clean, but you've got to tidy it before they clean it.
Starting point is 00:31:52 I know. She'd, like, get up in the room, like, clean up your mess, clean up your mess, the cleaner's coming over. Yeah. And then she'd just be there to wipe down the benches. Do cleaners put away your stuff? That's what somebody messaged in saying they're a housekeeper and some of their clients clean up before they
Starting point is 00:32:07 arrive. Yeah, right. Do you have, I believe, Sarah, you're a cleaner? Well, I'm a housekeeper. What's the difference there? Well, for me, I cook, I clean, I do the laundry, I do the groceries.
Starting point is 00:32:25 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I take care of things. You take care of the household. Take care of business. Wow, okay. Sorry. And so do you find this that if somebody hires you, that they do all of this pre-work before you get there?
Starting point is 00:32:39 Yes, absolutely. And I've actually seen somebody this week who she's trying to get the house in order before I get there. And I'm like, that's why you're hiring me. She's up to embarrass me to come over. Oh, no. No, that's why you, yeah. Because you wouldn't walk into a messy house and judge them, would you? You're going, I'm going to sort this out for them.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Oh, I love it. I absolutely love it. It's my dream. That's why I do what I do. And is no one home when you're there and you're just sort of pottering around and cooking a meal? Yeah, most of the time my clients aren't home, but for new clients, they often are. And they're more nervous than I am. I'm not nervous going into somebody's house, but the clients are more nervous because yeah, they're like, she's judging me. But that's why I'm there. Would you judge someone if they'd left, like, half an
Starting point is 00:33:27 ice cream in their side compartment of their car and it'd go all through the door? You'd judge that, wouldn't you? I can't confirm or deny. Look, Sarah, I know that I'm pretty manky, and actually I need a Sarah in my life. You do need a Sarah in your life.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Just take care of me. I need Sarah in my life. What a noob. Yeah, you need a Sarah, I need a Sarah, we all need You do need a Sarah in your life. Take care of me. I need a Sarah in my life. You need a Sarah. I need a Sarah. We all need a Sarah. That's what I imagine. She takes care of everybody else's house. She can't get home. Can't be bothered with her own.
Starting point is 00:33:53 Oh, no. That isn't a tip. Do you get home and you're like, I can't be bothered? No, I love it. I am. Wow. I'm a fan critic in my own house. So when people come over, yeah, they get nervous in my house.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Oh, that could be a good tagline for your business. You need a Sarah in your life. Everybody needs a Sarah in their life. Sarah, thank you so much for sharing with us this morning. Some more messages in. My dad changes the oil in a car before he gets a service for his car. So he knows it's being changed. But they do that.
Starting point is 00:34:24 And it is embarrassing when you're like, it's running like shit. And they're like, when did you last see it? You've got no oil in a car before he gets a service for his car so he knows it's being changed. But they do that and it is embarrassing when you're like, it's running like shit. And they're like, when did you last see it? You got no oil in the car. As a car detailer, I can say we do appreciate people who give their cars a little bit of a tidy up before they come in. Lazy.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Because then we have to spend so much of our time doing the ice cream in the door that we don't have enough time to really make it pop. Okay. I had my car booked in for a clean yesterday and a warranted fit this morning, so I kind of needed to. I had sweet and sour sauce in the back of a seat pocket and slime on the back seat from the kids.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Wait, was the sweet and sour sauce, had it leaked from the container or was it still a container? I think it sounds like the kids had half finished the sweet and sour sauce, had it leaked from the container or was it still a container? I think it sounds like the kids had half finished the sweet and sour sauce and then just tucked it in the back of mum's
Starting point is 00:35:08 seat. Oh God, that's awful. Yeah. Someone said the amount of people that put on makeup to come in store to get their makeup done.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Everybody arrives with a full face of makeup to have us have to wipe it all off and then start again with makeup. It's a risk though. What if you run into
Starting point is 00:35:24 like someone hot between the car and the makeup place? Yeah, and you've got your manky bare face out. Yeah. And they see what you look like. They see what you really look like. Lisa said I used to clean the house before the cleaners came. The husband rocked me about it every time. I gave my oven a clean before the guy came to clean it.
Starting point is 00:35:41 I paid someone to clean the oven, but I cleaned it up a little bit before he got there. Wait, there's a person that just comes for the oven. Hang on. There's oven cleaners? Yeah, yeah. Horrible job. I need this. I hate cleaning the oven.
Starting point is 00:35:54 That poisonous stuff. Yeah. It just lingers there for days. Have you tried baking soda? Make a paste with some baking soda. Make a bit of water of vinegar. Have you tried vinegar? Rub it on some baking soda. Make a bit of water of vinegar. Have you tried vinegar? Rub on the baking soda paste and leave it for eight years
Starting point is 00:36:11 and then spray it with vinegar. I want stuff that I find out later is going to kill me. Well, this is news to no one, is it? The cost of living is sky high. Ridiculous. And the cost of groceries has been well talked about at the moment. Lettuces, eight bucks and the likes. Carrots, tomatoes, terrible.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Did I tell you that I found? No, you found it, Vaughan. What? I got a lime tree. Oh, yeah. You got a lime tree. It's a great lime tree too. I thought it was a shite
Starting point is 00:36:47 lemon tree. You were like why haven't they gone green? Why haven't they gone yellow? So you're saving on cocktail fruit. I'm saving on my mojitos, margaritas any kind of cocktail. But anyway so the supermarkets they have a bit of a what are they calling it? A duopoly at the moment.
Starting point is 00:37:04 Yeah they're two companies, really. Two companies. And so they don't have to bring the price down because we'll just pay for it. Enter Te Warefare, the warehouse. They're saying that they're seriously considering moving into the grocery sector and have vowed to keep the prices
Starting point is 00:37:22 of their little grocery section low. So what? They did this before, remember, the warehouse extra? Yeah. And it was like... And they had a pharmacy in it? But they also did, they were doing like supermarket stuff. Yeah, basic.
Starting point is 00:37:34 So there's always had your chips and your chocolates. Yeah. That kind of stuff and some pet food. Aren't those parallel imported chips? I don't know. I don't know. You don't like them? Huh?
Starting point is 00:37:44 No, they're fine. I'm just saying sometimes they look a little bit different. Oh, okay. Yeah, they're not your usual eaters. Hey, they all taste the same inside your body. They do. They all taste the same inside your body. I'm not sure
Starting point is 00:37:59 that they do. I'm sure that's the very difference between chips made in New Zealand and chips imported from other parts of the world. They taste slightly different. Okay. But I didn't know that they do. I'm sure that's the very difference between chips made in New Zealand and chips imported from other parts of the world. They taste slightly different. Okay. But I didn't know that they did real staples
Starting point is 00:38:10 like butter, milk, your breakfasts and the likes. Wow. So is this some warehouse stores or all? I think all of them. All the ones that have a little supermarket section.
Starting point is 00:38:22 So they've got general comparisons between the warehouse and your supermarkets. A 500 gram block of butter, four bucks at the warehouse. That's good because what would one of those... $7.30. Yeah, maybe six if you're lucky on special at a supermarket. Yeah, I think they're
Starting point is 00:38:37 doing it, you know, the price is comparing on a bad day. Or you can buy a butter churn and make your own butter. Yes. You can buy a butter churn on AliExpress. Don't ask me how I know. Maybe I looked it up. Maybe I thought that would be quite a cool thing to have. But you need the heavy cream.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Put it in there and a bit of salt. I remember we did that at Pioneer Day at primary school. Takes a long time. Pioneer Day. Either one I saw, you literally put it in this thing and put a power drill on the top. Oh, wow. And then just give it nuts. You can just use a beater.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Like if you're whipping cream. No, but this thing was bigger and it needed the torque of a drill. Wow. Okay, now I want to invite me over. Just go to the warehouse, get it for four bucks. A 1.2 kg box of Wheat Bix was five bucks compared to 7.80 at supermarkets. 1.5 kg pack of oats. Oats are oats.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Oh, yeah. $3.50 at the warehouse, $7.70 at a supermarket. Instant coffee, $1 compared to $2.50. I mean, the prices are so much lower. What about, do they do milk? Yeah, they do milk. Because, yeah, you can shop around for some cheap milk. You get those two for deals, those two bottles for six at some dairy's.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Yeah, the brand's always like. It's all from the same cow. Milky Milkness. Yeah. Milky Milkness from up the farm. And they're like four bucks or something. Well, that's good. You can do...
Starting point is 00:39:48 If you did your staples there... And then you could go to your bougie... Supermarket. Organic grocers to do the rest. No one's doing that. You're talking your Faroes, your Borrocks, your More Wilsons. What about your side of the road fruit and veg store? Your Marl and Heart fruit and veg.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Those guys are rocking some good deals on it. Yeah. It's a lot cheaper. Supermarkets up to 400% in the veggie department. Fruit and veggie department.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Just because they give you fruit and veggie a bit of a wipe. And there's avocado fingers like you. Oh, come on. Do you lick the nip off? I just give it a little
Starting point is 00:40:19 No, I actually squeeze the whole avo. He squeezes it. And if it's just past good his finger goes right through. Yeah. And then you put it back. Well, I just wipe it on the side.
Starting point is 00:40:30 The avo destroys. Oh, my God. I'm a monster. You're a monster. They need to have a little bin at the front of the avocado because if I find one and I'm like, no one's going to do that. I don't want to put it back amongst the avocado. Yeah, but who are you to decide?
Starting point is 00:40:43 I am the avocado judge, jury and executioner and if I put it in the basket, it's done for. Right. Sometimes you grab them and they feel like a empty avocado shell and you're like, well, nothing's left. Yeah. Give me somewhere to put it that's not back
Starting point is 00:40:59 on the pile. You need a whoops, I fingered the avocado bin. Yeah. Oops. I fingered the avocado bin. Yeah. Oops. I fingered the avocado. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, the saga continues with my tingling nerve pain in my left thigh. It's been a good
Starting point is 00:41:17 few months and I was complaining about it. It's because you always sit on your leg. I do, I sit on my leg. I told you off this morning. You're like, just went to the doctor, blah, blah, blah, and then you sat on your chair on your leg. I cannot sit I sit on my leg. I told you off this morning. You're like, just went to the doctor, blah, blah, blah, and then you sat on your chair on your leg. I cannot sit. I'm trying now, like feet on the ground or feet flat on something. That's the only way I can sit.
Starting point is 00:41:32 I can't. I have to either cross my legs or always tuck my left leg under my bum. Well, you and Vaughan both go to Dr. Wynn, which we've spoken about previously. I was first complaining about this nerve pain, wasn't I, Vaughn? And then you were like, you've got to go and see... Dr. Wynne. Dr. Wynne, the acupuncturist. Dr. Wynne, PhD. Yeah. He calls himself the PhD
Starting point is 00:41:51 acupuncturist because he wants to... He believes in acupuncture, but he wants everyone to know he's a real doctor as well. It's a weird... If you've never had it, it's weird, but it doesn't hurt. It's a weird... It's hard to describe it. It is. It's good to start. It's the most unusual. And I went there... He fixed you, didn't he? I first went when I had shingles.
Starting point is 00:42:08 And it was just, if you've ever had shingles, it's just like this shooting nerve pain. It's horrible. Yeah. And I was just like looking for pain relief. I had like these strong painkillers, but they didn't agree with me. And someone was like acupuncture.
Starting point is 00:42:20 And I was just like, I'll give anything a shot at this stage. And I went and, oh, lovely. Bit of cupping, bit of needles, bit of cup, cup. And I felt as good as gold. And then when I hurt my back earlier this year, I'm like, well, I'm not going to dilly-dally. I know what happened last time. And I went back to Dr. Wynne.
Starting point is 00:42:35 Yes. And you recommended him to me. I said, get into Dr. Wynne. And so I went to Dr. Wynne and we hit it off. And you said, oh, my friend Vaughn referred me. Yeah, and I said, you know Vaughn? He's probably wearing a hat, got a beard. He was like, no.
Starting point is 00:42:51 And then he treated me. Chubby bum that loves a smack. Yeah, he loves to give you a little smack on the bum. Anyway, I went back yesterday for more work on the leg. It was absolutely, it was heaven on earth. But he did say, when I walked in, I mean, his whole face lit up. He was absolutely elated to see me. He said, hello.
Starting point is 00:43:10 And he said, you know what? A couple of people have been coming in and saying they listen to you on the radio. And I said, yeah, well, that's Vaughan, that's me and Vaughan who recommended me. And he was like, well, they love you. Also, again, still no Vaughan. No knowledge of Vaughn whatsoever. I'm the original connection. Yeah, he doesn't know it all.
Starting point is 00:43:30 I'm the original. If anyone goes and sees Dr. Wynn, he's in Mount Albert. Say, no, no, no, no, say Vaughn sent you. Yeah, well, because a couple of people have listened to me talking about Dr. Wynn and they've gone and said I heard Hayley talking about it on the radio. Gave me a blimmin' discount yesterday. What the? I know.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I got a discount when I paid. He was like, I'll give you a little discount. There's a power of radio there, isn't there? I didn't get a discount. Do you know how... Yeah, but I'm the original connection. You don't deserve a discount. You don't deserve a discount.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Do you know how close me and Dr. Wynne are? Yesterday when he was putting some... He did the needles and then he put some cupping on. He put one on and then he dragged it. He's a naughty boy. I can't tell you how much it hurt. Like he put the cupping and then was like dragging it over the area to really get the blood going to that area.
Starting point is 00:44:14 And it was like unbelievable the pain, the temporary pain for the long-term pain. But you feel great though, don't you? You do feel great, but he was doing it and I was yelling. I was like, no, Dr. Win! And I smacked his hand and he smacked mine back. Yeah, don't you? You do feel great, but he was doing it and I was yelling. I was like, no, Dr. Wynne! And I smacked his hand and he smacked mine back. Yeah, don't touch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:29 And then afterwards, I was like, we were laughing, but we were in little slappies. And then he took off the cups and then he just gave me a little fire, good old spanking. Yeah, yeah. Get the blood there. When you're there, it's not your body, it's Dr. Wynne's body. I know, he shunts you around a bit.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Yeah, whacks you. And you're feeling better? Feeling so much better. That's amazing. Wynne's body. I know, he shunts you around a bit. Yeah, whacks you. And you're feeling better? Feeling so much better. That's amazing. Last night was the first night since the last time I saw him that I haven't had nerve pain in my leg. But you've got hackies on your leg. I've got so many. Big hackies. Big hackies up the thigh. Thank God it's not mini skirt season. I googled woman bruises easier than
Starting point is 00:44:59 men. How about that? Do they? Yeah, tell us why again. More fat, less collagen. More fat, less collagen. More fat, less collagen. Wow. On a whole, yeah. That's why my thigh in particular is purple. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:13 No comment. Um. Well, the borders are open actually today. The first day, I think the first flight was after midnight. Australians can come. Welcome, guys. Welcome. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:45:30 If you need a couch, Fletcher's got a really big one. Yeah, such a big couch. He's got a spare bedroom. Seems like it's going to waste. Yeah, it does actually. He could house four or five people in that apartment. They're not refugees. They're coming on holiday.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Oh, right. Okay, well, we'll have to go. What. They're coming on holiday. Oh, right. Okay, well, we're out there. What if they're hot, though? Oh, yeah. What he's going to do is he's going to deal with this on a case-by-case basis. Right, right. Well, the borders have been opened for New Zealand citizens as well
Starting point is 00:45:56 with no MIQ, and we ran a competition, Border Break, where you could register to come home and see your family that you haven't seen for some people years. Yeah, we're watching a lot of reuniting videos and having a little sniffle. They always make me cry. Well, nearly a thousand entries and Olivia was the one
Starting point is 00:46:15 that won our border break competition and she flew home yesterday. Hello. Hi, Olivia. Hello. You've been away for three years? Yes. We hear that you're really missing your family. I'm actually born on my mum's birthday and we just have this, like, connection. I miss my mum. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Yeah. Soul sisters. That's so special. So you had been overseas six months when the pandemic started? Yeah, I left in April 2019. What would it mean to you if we were able to bring you home to see your family and particularly your mum? It would mean the world. Even just thinking about it, I'm like all jittery.
Starting point is 00:46:48 I think I would probably, a lot of ugly crying, I think. Is mum emotional? She's one of those people, she would do anything to have me home. So I think she would just be like overwhelmed with emotion as well. Here's the good news. She doesn't need to do anything more because you are the winner of our ZM Border Break and we're bringing you home
Starting point is 00:47:05 to be reunited with your family. I actually don't even know what to say. I'm so lost for words. It's alright. I'm trying not to cry now. Thank you guys so much.
Starting point is 00:47:15 See you soon in person. Oh my god, that means the world, honestly. So Olivia jumped on a plane and before we knew it I'm coming home to you. Olivia!

We've got presents. These are guys from ZM Radio. So I need to get you guys in a competition for a small business shouting. We've won, so yay! So there's coffees in those boxes.

Starting point is 00:49:35 I love them. Wasn't it beautiful? The dad got you going, didn't he? Yeah, well, that's the rule. If you're a dad and you see another dad crying, you have to cry as well. Especially over a daughter. Yeah. I was so happy.
Starting point is 00:50:01 It was such a nice moment. And they genuinely had no idea. I was so nervous. I know. They had no idea. It was brilliant. It was such a nice moment. And they genuinely had no idea. I was so nervous. I know. They had no idea. It was brilliant. It was beautiful to watch. And you can see the video we've uploaded it on our socials, FVHZM.
Starting point is 00:50:13 It's up on Instagram and Facebook now. And you can text border, the word border, to 9696. We'll find you back a link so you can watch the video. Enjoy. Just in case if you need to start the day with a tactical cry. A tactical cry. Cathartic. Yeah. For sure. Especially if you are missing someone at the
Starting point is 00:50:31 moment who's overseas. Yeah. You'll be feeling this one. I imagine that's what the airport arrivals land just like every day at the moment. Yeah, you'll be slipping on snot and tears on the floor. Oh, we should have got a dog. Dogs can't talk though, so not great audio for the radio, but, you know, he's a dog.
Starting point is 00:50:46 They go crazy, don't they? How did it feel to see your owner? They do. They go all whiny. Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. So outside or by my house, they're doing a new road.
Starting point is 00:51:07 What do you call it? Seals? That new. Tarmac? Yeah. And it's that stuff that's like, it's not gravelly. They don't just put down the tar and then put gravel on. It's that stuff that's like, is it bitumen?
Starting point is 00:51:20 Bitumen, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's all black. Are you parted? Yeah. What's it called? Bitumen. I've never heard of that. Bitumen. B-I-T. I? Yeah, bitumen. What's it called? Bitumen. I've never heard of that. Bitumen.
Starting point is 00:51:26 B-E-I-T. I've heard of Bishamel. They're not paving the road with Bishamel. It's when the roads go real, they're real smooth. Oh, yeah, yeah. It's a hot bitumen. You smell it when they're pouring it and the steam's coming off and they're like doing it and then the roller comes in and squishes it.
Starting point is 00:51:41 Oh, my God. You can skateboard on it. You can go with little wheels on it. It's beautiful stuff. And I don't know why, but yesterday when I saw this brand new road, I was like. It just ticked your boxes. New road markings and real smooth.
Starting point is 00:51:56 Like gone are the little patches where they dug up a hole here and then did a little square and covered it over. And the road's like almost black. Oh, it's black. It's dark black. I will re-swipe. Today when you're walking home, the rain on it will be beating. It'll be beating on it because it's got the dirt.
Starting point is 00:52:12 No, like, bumps because, like, lots of heavy trucks and buses have been driving over it for years. That's the thing. You get this nice new road and then some truck comes in, some heavy truck breaks and it puts a dent in it. Thanks a lot, truck drivers. I think it's up there with one of the most... You can't beat it.
Starting point is 00:52:28 You can't beat it. Is that weird? When you're driving in your car and you hit a new bit of road and it's like... Yeah! Oh, yes! I was going to say, this isn't a paid advertisement for the National Party, by the way.
Starting point is 00:52:43 They get a bit of trouble on a new road, don't they? They love a new road. I was going to say that must be how Transmission Gully felt, but everybody's been complaining about stone chips. The loose chips. So I don't think that's our... He was being shattered windows. That's a lot of stony gravel on those roads.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Do you know what it is for me? Sautéed onions. That's when I get that feeling. That's when I come inside and I'll be like, what are you cooking? And Charlotte will literally be like, garlic and onions so far. It's just onions. That's when I get that feeling. That's when I come inside and I'll be like, what are you cooking? And Charlotte will literally be like, garlic and onions so far. It's just onions.
Starting point is 00:53:09 Right. I don't think you can beat it. They're slimy when they're sliming around in the pan. They're a little bit slimy. Yeah, when you've got the heat kind of lower and they're not charring,
Starting point is 00:53:17 you're almost caramelising. But that's what I wanted to talk about this morning. Like those weird, unusual things where you're like, you just can't beat that. I mean, fresh cut grass has got to be in there. I had a talk about this morning. Like those weird, unusual things where you're like, you just can't beat that. It's just so good.
Starting point is 00:53:26 Fresh cut grass has got to be in there. I had a new one this year. Oh, okay. Harvested the honey from our hive. And it was all in this big contraption that you spin all the honey out of. And then you open the tap at the bottom and it went, the first one, it went bloop. The first one went bloop, this amazing noise.
Starting point is 00:53:41 And then it was just this flow of honey. A tap of honey. Was it a tap? No, it was like a hole opening the bottom. It was a big hole. You open it up and it was just this flow of honey. A tap of honey. Was it a tap? No, it was like a hole opening the bottom. It was a big hole. You open it up and it was like
Starting point is 00:53:49 and then just running. By a sho-shmoosh. Yeah, you know where I'm going with this. Can you please bring this up? Ah, yeah. Guys, guys, I've got so much honey.
Starting point is 00:53:59 So I just got the test results back and I don't have the bad stuff in it. What is it, got an STI? We haven't received a single... What do you mean you've tested your honey? You've got to test results back and I don't have the bad stuff in it. What is it, got an STI? We haven't received a single... What do you mean you've tested your honey? You've got to test the honey.
Starting point is 00:54:09 Why? Is it TT or 2-2? And if the bees spend too much time getting the pollen from it, it can be toxic honey. No, I couldn't... You've got COVID. I can't be having toxic honey in my crump crump. You can't be having toxic...
Starting point is 00:54:21 I can't be the final nail in your coffin. You're on your last legs. You're absolutely buggered. You're struggling to breathe. So wait, so is the pottle of honey joining the line of the pulled pork, mac and cheese? That was honestly, I think we might have talked about over a month. It's a winter meal.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Months ago. So the honey's come back good. The honey's come back good, but I'm waiting on my unique manuka factor. Right. Getting the manuka numbers right. What are you selling to the Asian market? You bet. He's called my father-in-law
Starting point is 00:54:46 I'm going to make him Pay top dollar Yeah right Well see That I imagine Would be something That you can't beat Honey pouring out
Starting point is 00:54:55 Yeah Because see I always remember that I always see that Instagram reel Or you know that And it's like a honey thing But there's a tap
Starting point is 00:55:02 Built into it Yes Do you always see that And you just turn it on like a tap. What are those called? Nah, they are flow hives. Oh, right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I don't know why that was targeted towards me, but I appreciated it. Well, you know how good it is when you get a runny honey running out of a tub or out of like an arataki honey upside down. When it does, it's so satisfying. Imagine that times 100. Is it as satisfying as a brand new road though? It's up there. What about as satisfying as having a little pick at something
Starting point is 00:55:30 and you pick it and the little dry bit comes off and then out unfurls an ingrown hair. Okay, you're gross. You need to exfoliate more. There is something to be said about the perfect pimple squeeze though. Yes, that's true. Oh yes, when you're like... And it just goes...
Starting point is 00:55:48 Oh, like a noodle. I mean, that's why people love Dr. Pimple Popper. Like a noodle. Like a gross noodle with a black head. Oh yeah. Okay, so I want to open up the phone lines now. 0800 DALS at MTEXT as well. 9696.
Starting point is 00:56:02 What are those things you just can't beat? Those feelings, those little things that you do. Do you know what you can't beat? The gratifying things like a new road. You can't beat Wellington on a good day. Or Wellington on a good day. I mean, fair call, fair call. If you can find a day where the protesters aren't skinning and eating a seal.
Starting point is 00:56:18 I know. Did they do that? They ate a seal. What? They ate a seal. They moved to Mittermau. Yeah. Yesterday, someone's like, they're down there. They They ate a seal. What? They ate a seal. They moved to Miramar. Yeah. Yesterday, someone's like, down there, they've killed a seal.
Starting point is 00:56:29 They're skinning it in their own. They've eaten it. They ate a goddamn seal. They've got supermarkets there. Yeah, there's the Miramar New World right around the corner. Just around the corner. They ate a seal. They ate a seal.
Starting point is 00:56:38 I mean, way to get the public on your side. At this point, the absolute new compassion for that faded to nothing. And now they're eating a seal? So we are talking now about those things that you just can't beat. Those things that you just... Life's perfect moments. Yeah, like the brand new road that's perfectly flat
Starting point is 00:56:57 and smooth. The sad thing about it is it's never going to be that good again. No, it never will be. I thought of another one. You know when the ocean goes glassy flat or a lake? It's never going to be that good again. No, it never will be. I thought of another one. You know when the ocean goes glassy flat or a lake? Oh, yes. It's absolutely glassy flat. Like there's not a breath of wind. Like in Milford Sound, there's lots of that as you're driving in.
Starting point is 00:57:14 It's like a mirror. Yeah. Winter is the best time for that. You can't beat that. Can't beat it. Can't beat it. Can't beat it. What about, you know, when there's like rugby pitches or like cricket pitches or something
Starting point is 00:57:24 and the lawnmower has done perfect crisscross passion? Oh, yeah. Cross hatch. Cross hatch. Cross hatch lawns. It's hot. It's not going to happen with my bloody kai ku, though, is it? Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Your lawn's a mess. Spongy and soft, but I can't get any good lines in it. You've got a spongy lawn, don't you? Yeah, we'll get some. He's got a spongy lawn. Yeah, we'll get some rye in there. All right, let's start with Stephen. Stephen, good morning. What don't you? Yeah. He's got a spongy one. I'm going to get some rye in there. All right, let's start with Stephen. Stephen, good morning.
Starting point is 00:57:46 What can't you beat? You can't beat, like, you know, when you close roads. So you know how you said you've got that nice flat grass road, like you can see it all flat? Yeah. Imagine having that road closed and watching it all be done and then having the road closed to yourself and you can do whatever you want on it. Like during lockdown, we'd always go for walks and you'd just be done and then having the road closed to yourself and you can do whatever you want on it.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Like during lockdown we'd always go for walks and you'd just walk in the middle of the road because no one was driving around. Yeah, no one was driving. Those first lockdowns. It's a bit like when I go to work
Starting point is 00:58:12 at 5am and there's no one on the roads. I just ride my little scoots in the middle of the road. Yeah, I know. And run red lights. I'm always coming off the motorway
Starting point is 00:58:19 and trying to hit you. I would imagine it's a zombie apocalypse every time I did that. You were out for a groceries run. Stephen, thanks you're cool. Henriette,
Starting point is 00:58:28 what's the feeling you can't beat? Definitely a clean house that's been cleaned with genola or demistos. Jesus, demistos sounds like asbestos to me. Wait, so you just love the smell of genola and
Starting point is 00:58:44 clean. Yes, that clean, fresh, and knowing that love the smell of genola and clean? Yes, that clean, fresh, and knowing that all the germs are gone and any bacteria that's anywhere is just gone. Are you murdering people in there? Yeah. I like to clean out my kill room with some bleach. Brilliant, Henriette. Thanks for your call. Some messages in.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Those things you just can't beat Someone said Peeling the plastic off a new phone Oh yeah, that's good stuff Oh my god Have you ever been round to someone's house And realised they haven't done it On their washing machine or something?
Starting point is 00:59:14 Oh, I do that all the time Mother, may I? In like dairies or shops And they haven't taken the protector Off their EFTPOS machine That's their EFTPOS machine That's not your EFTPOS machine No, I do it
Starting point is 00:59:23 That's a non-consented EFTPOS pill Wow, you've stolen that from someone else. Someone said finding the 10 mil socket. If you open your socket Is that the one that's always missing? Yep. Because everything's 10 mil and you take it off and then it'll fall off. I've got an Allen key like that.
Starting point is 00:59:40 It's lost because it's the one that you use for everything. Yeah. That's sad that that's gone. Somebody, and this is a very, very popular one, whether it be waxing or shaving, but body hair removal, legs and or other bits and pieces. Like the final product when you're all smooth or the actual.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Teamed up with a hot shower, lotions and clean sheets. Oh, my God. And you keep like squibbling around. Yeah. Oh, I'm a little worm. Somebody says the sheets have to be sun-dried. Oh, yeah. They want the sheets sun-dried.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Yeah, but they want the, if there's a blanket, it has to be dryer-dried. So it fluffs. A week later, you're like Velcroing those sheets and you're all gross. Yeah, that's why you've got to enjoy that moment. That's why you've got to enjoy that moment. Like a prickly snake. Vinny, what's a
Starting point is 01:00:26 feeling you can't beat? Like lifting wood and building bases out of the wood. What kind of bases? And building tree houses with my dad. Oh, yeah. Like when you lift wood and there's slaters
Starting point is 01:00:42 under there or bugs. That wouldn't be good for a base though because then you've got slaters in your base. Yeah. That's fine. Huh? There's bugs under. There's bugs, yeah. There's bugs.
Starting point is 01:00:53 There's bugs under trees. Yeah. What about climbing trees? You still like getting up a tree? Yeah. Yeah. I love climbing a tree. You enjoy that, Vinny, because when you get old, you can't climb trees.
Starting point is 01:01:05 No, you can. You absolutely cannot climb trees. You fall out very hard. Vaughn climbed my tree the other day, but he was wheeling a chainsaw at the same time. Which I think adds a certain element to it. Yeah. Do you know what I love is we just got our first, we've never had a fireplace, we just got our first load of firewood and we've stored it in the garage.
Starting point is 01:01:20 You walk into the garage. You love the smell? Yes. I hear this. Actually, you can't. A lovely stacked pile of firewood. It's well stacked. Or a roaring fire when it's like stormy outside.
Starting point is 01:01:30 It's all crappy. Oh, I've got to come away from the cool down. That perfect zone in front of a fire. If you're too close, it's hot. If you're too far away, you might as well not have a fire at all. It's just that Goldilocks zone of a fire too. That's the good stuff. You can't beat a good cup of tea.
Starting point is 01:01:43 How simple is that? Someone's message didn't. You just can't beat a good cup of tea. How simple is that? Someone's message didn't you just can't beat a good cup of tea. The best feeling is the first one to dive into a swimming pool when it's completely glassy. The first person to break that meniscus. When we did the Whanganui River
Starting point is 01:01:57 canoe trip and there'd be periods of the river where no one was ahead of you and you were the first canoe and it was just glass. It was so nice. Someone said, how good is changing lanes and not hitting a cat eye? Oh, I thought you were about to say a car. Not hitting a cat or a car. Yes.
Starting point is 01:02:13 No, when you change it and instead of getting a your wheels like slip slip. And you just imagine that you've just perfectly slid in. Some Formula One stuff. Tokyo Drift. The road surfers we're referring to is known as hot mix bitumen is a leftover product from the petroleum refinery process used for chip sealer making hot mix okay hot max is the stuff that we hot mix well that's my favorite road then hot mix
Starting point is 01:02:40 yeah yeah uh first layer of fresh snow and cutting through it. Oh, yeah. Like crumply crickles. Fresh powder snow. Crumply crickles. You're like sinking into it, but it's like crackling and it's really weird. Yeah. When it stops falling, maybe the top layer freezes, but it's only just this, and you're just like crickly through it.
Starting point is 01:03:04 Oh, putting a Q-tip butt in your ear canal and giving it a... I do it every morning. A twirl. I'm so bad. Every morning. There's nothing coming out, but I just like a little itch. Yeah, right. Itchy scratch. Cutting into the perfect poached egg where you go through the top of the yolk
Starting point is 01:03:16 and it kind of pulls itself apart in the yolk. Like you're on Grey's Anatomy and you just kind of... Incision. With the scalpel. Yeah. Made a lovely incision. Opening a new book. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:27 Oh, yeah. Well, I've got the Kindle. It's just, you know, it's not the same. Oh, my God. Yeah, downloading a new Kindle. Mike. Oh, my God. You're watching that status bar download.
Starting point is 01:03:36 Yeah. Mike, people use the buses, you clown. That one's for Newslook ZB. I'll be sure to pass it on. Mike, people use the buses. Buses, you clown. He must be having a go at buses upstairs. Oh, goodness.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Oh, right. Text him back as if you're Mike Hosking. Oh, should I tell him to stick it up your socialist arse? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Hashtag two ticks blue. No, because it'll say ZM. Oh, okay, right.
Starting point is 01:03:59 But then they might think it says B. I mean, this feels good to me too. Newstalk ZM. Oh, my God. I think it says B. I mean, this feels good to me too. New sort of ZDM's. Play. ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Today's fact of the day is about the smallest inhabited island. Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:30 The smallest inhabited island is the size of a tennis court. What? And people live there. Yeah. Is this part of Lucky Country or is it in the middle of nowhere? I know it's in America. Oh, my gosh. It's a whittle house.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Now, a high tide would absolutely soak that and any sort of cyclone would know, it's in America. Oh my gosh. It's a little house. Now, a high tide would absolutely soak that and any sort of cyclone would just be ta-ta house. There's places like that out in Nelson, I feel. There's a little house out by the airport.
Starting point is 01:04:53 I always fly over it. I'm just like, that's not going to last long. A little house on a little island. There's only a couple of metres from the shoreline to the front door.
Starting point is 01:05:01 The front doorstep is the ocean. God, they're not going to be happy in that Antarctica's heating up. No. One tree, one house. And the house is very small. It wins now.
Starting point is 01:05:13 It took the title off. There was a smaller island that had a lighthouse on it. Oh, okay. So you'd think more living room because it's high. There's multiple stories to it, but they automated the lighthouse
Starting point is 01:05:24 on Bishop Rock. So technically, it's high. There's multiple stories to it, but they automated the lighthouse on Bishop Rock. So technically it's no longer an inhabited island. This one is called Hub Island. It's part of the Thousand Islands archipelago. Thousand Islands. So this is a secondary fact. Thousand Island dressing is named after the Thousand Islands. Are there actually a Thousand Islands?
Starting point is 01:05:48 Yeah. Are there one thousand islands? There's more than a thousand islands in the Thousand Islands. There's 1864 by official count. They dot the St. Lawrence River as it flows northeast out of Lake Ontario. Just 500 feet away, this one, this little pub island from the next island.
Starting point is 01:06:05 And how did they come up with the dressing? Well, it was just a dressing that was local to the area. It took off in the area. What is Thousand Island? Sort of a tomatoey? I always thought it was more on a tartary. Oh, I'm thinking of Russian dressing. It's based on mayonnaise.
Starting point is 01:06:22 It can include olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, mustard vinegar, cream, chilli sauce, tomato puree and ketchup and tobacco. What's the chunks in it then? Because I always remember Thousand Island dressing having a little chunk chunk. Having a little chunk. Is it pickles?
Starting point is 01:06:38 Is it chopped up pickles? Well, they certainly know their dressings, don't they? Yeah. Because it's red, isn't it? That's what the paprika will give that. It's very on the verge of tartare. I make a bloody good tartare. You've talked about this tartare, but I haven't had it.
Starting point is 01:06:50 I haven't had a chance. I haven't had it in my mouth. But it's the same ingredients like lemon juice, a bit of Worcestershire sauce, mustard, vinegar. Sweet pickle relish. I'm looking at one here. Yeah, tomato puree. See, there's got a bit of tomato.
Starting point is 01:07:04 That's giving it that pinky hue with the paprika. Pinky red. And so the islands that that is named after include the world's smallest inhabited islands. Wow. Okay. So you can look up a thousand islands and know... It's not there for long though, is it? Let's be honest.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Not this one. That big chunk of Antarctica or the Arctic shelf just broke off. It's on its way. Yeah, every time one of those big shelves breaks off and starts melting, I'm imagining it just loses a little bit around the shoreline. But yeah, I don't know how it survived. It's like a wooden weatherboard house with a shingle roof. I don't know how it hasn't been destroyed by a cyclone.
Starting point is 01:07:40 I thought you were trying to say with a shingle door. With a shingle door and a shingle roof room for a shingle door. With a shingle door and a shingle roof room for a shingle bed. Just a shingle tree and a shingle lady. So today's fact of the day is the smallest inhabited island in the world is about the size of a tennis court. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- Licking his genies. So I've got the vet sent the, you know, they send you the bill and the notes for your cat insurance. The breakdown, yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:28 This is what it said. Wouldn't stop licking his genitals. Keep doing it. Did wheeze before he came in. Because I Googled it. I was like, why is Major Murray Fluffington continually licking his genital area? And apparently it's quite a problem. If you can't do it, it's a sign that there's like a problem maybe in the urethra or the genital area.
Starting point is 01:08:55 Kept doing it. So I was like, oh, my God. Well, I've Googled it. It's the worst case scenario. I better take him to the vet. So took him to the vet. Yesterday you thought bumhole cancer. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Or glands. You know, those stupid dogs. Sometimes the vets have to squeeze their glands. Squeeze their glands yeah. But took him to the vet and by the way 6.49 kgs. That is so heavy. Big unit! My cat is just under 4 kgs. Yeah he's a
Starting point is 01:09:19 he sits on me in the morning before I feed him to wake me up because I can't breathe as it is with COVID. He suffocates you too. Yeah, so he suffocates me to wake me up. But yeah, so the vet checked him over and the vet's like, oh, look, looks fine. And he has stopped licking his balls and his junk area constantly.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Did the vet fat shame him a bit? No, I didn't get a lecture about the fat shame. Well, he's going through enough. But the vet said... The vet will fat shame you when you've No, I didn't get a lecture about the fat shame. Well, he's going through enough. But the vet said... The vet will fat shame you when you've got nothing else to be concerned about. Yeah, just when you do the general check. Like when this is all cleared up, they'll be like, oh, and now that's cleared up, you probably need to look at...
Starting point is 01:09:54 Although it's not the climate to be fat shaming someone. Might cancel my vet if they do that next time. Actually. But no, so the vet's lovely and she said, well, what we'll do just to be safe is we'll do a urine test. And you know, when you do this with the doctor, you go to lab test, you wee in the tube or whatever. That's easy. That's fine. But a cat, how do you collect cats' wees? I don't know. Go. Well, you just chase after them with a little
Starting point is 01:10:22 tray. Exactly. I've done this with kids before. But again, that's easy enough to do. No, but when they're like a baby, it's not. You've got to capture it. You've got to like, you stick this, they wear this like plastic thing inside the napkin. Because he's an inside cat, the vet was like, well, take this little tiny bag of cat litter,
Starting point is 01:10:41 which would have probably been a quarter of a cup of these plastic beads. It looked so silly. And so the idea is that they don't absorb, so the wee sits in the kitty litter tray and you just use a syringe. Wait, your cat's going to see one small portion of kitty litter back up to him and be like, this is where I wee. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:58 Well, it didn't work. So the idea was I had these rubber gloves, a syringe and a little pot or a tube. And you just suck up the wee. And I would have to suck up the weed. And then so last night he keeps jumping up on his litter tray to go into it. And he's like, no, there's no litter in here. I'm like, there's litter in there. I put it in there.
Starting point is 01:11:14 And I was trying to push him into his litter box and he wasn't. So I was just like, oh, well, I don't want him shitting on the carpet. So I put his litter back in, the normal stuff, and he went. And I was like, damn it. So now I'm like, what do I do? My friend said he got a broomstick. They've got an outside cat. They tied a cup to a broom handle and just chased after it.
Starting point is 01:11:33 When it went outside, they put it under its bum. Oh, no, my cat's too late. Don't watch me. Don't watch me do that. No, that wouldn't work, eh? With a cup and a broom. I've never seen our cat pee. Well, they just kind of back up and they just like.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Yeah, they do. They have a little wee-wee. What did you knock over there? Well, our old cat before it died, but I don't want to talk about it. You don't want to talk about it. We knew that his kidneys were shot because he was weeing inside every now and then. Oh, bone. So apparently the next step is take him into the vet.
Starting point is 01:11:58 And I guess they just wait till he wees and then they get it. I'll say it again. This is what happens when you pay for a cat. You don't have these problems with manky old SBCA donation cats. Question, like, because you know how I've got pet insurance and I, like, upload this. Are they going to read this? Because all it says at the moment is he just kept licking his genitals.
Starting point is 01:12:19 Is that a claimable offence? I don't know if it's a claimable offence for humans. Well, I made a claim to Southern Cross. Yeah. And it was when I tried to lick my genitals, but I hurt my neck. But that's ACC. I was at ACC. That's ACC.
Starting point is 01:12:34 No wonder they declined that. I just thought they were being a bit prudish. Silly little pole It is so silly, silly, silly That the silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole Time for our silly little pole.
Starting point is 01:12:57 It is. Are you more of a spender or a saver? 59% of people said spender. 41% said saver. Good little savers. Good on you for being a little saver. I think I'm more of a saver, but then sometimes I'll have a bit of a...
Starting point is 01:13:13 Jesus. That's a lot. But yeah, more of a saver. I was giving a Jesus to Lisa. I'm a saver, but I splash on big things like Louis Vuitton bags and Gucci necklaces. So she ran right in the front of the store. That's not saving.
Starting point is 01:13:29 That's spending money. That's big spender. I mean, good on you. But then, hey, it's your money. If you're saving up that much to buy that stuff, then good on you. Absolutely. You do you. I'm definitely a spender.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Got a little bit of savings. Whereas your fiancé is more of the saver, isn't he? Aaron's... Well, he's just not a shopper. He doesn't care about fashion or anything like that. Yeah. He'll buy food and drinks. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:53 Michaela says, I try so hard to be a saver, but I can only save if I've got plans to spend. Yeah, okay. So her saving is for spending. But that's what every savings for, right? Yeah. So one day you'll spend it. Yeah, not just to look at it.
Starting point is 01:14:05 You're just prioritising what you're spending it on. Let's say it's for a rainy day, which is when you go to the mall. It's rainy today. Yeah, that's when you go to the mall and spend. And spend that. Spend the money. Rachel said, I save money, then get anxious about spending it on something nice, even though that's what it was there for in the first place.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Yeah. Yeah, once you, because when I used to be a good saver, once you accumulated it, you never wanted to see it go down. Well, yeah, because it's a good way when you, like, if you afterpay or tick something up, it's free money, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:14:33 Especially if you are, like, busting your ass to save for a house. You see how long it takes you to get that money. How long it takes you, and then you not only give it away, but then your account goes into, like, negative a million dollars.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Yeah! Yeah. Yeah. That's the good stuff. Kim said, definitely a saver to the point I even get buyer's guilt when I purchase something that I have been saving for. Yeah. Is it buyer's guilt or buyer's remorse? You regret.
Starting point is 01:14:58 Remorse. Yeah. Don't worry about that, Kim. Remorse is for the weak. Caitlin said, I was a saver until lockdown and I got addicted to online shopping because it was my main source of dopamine. Yeah. A little hit there for the online shopping.
Starting point is 01:15:15 I'm feeling that. Does spending savings count? Yes, Sheridan, because you have to have it. So you saved up to spend rather than just being a little trickler. You're a saver spender. My husband always says you can't take it with you,'ve saved up to spend rather than just being a little trickler. You're a saverspender. My husband always says you can't take it with you. So spend up. Enjoy it while it lasts.
Starting point is 01:15:32 I'm guessing that husband's not a financial advisor. Also, do you have to pay your afterpay like in heaven or in hell? No, no, no. That goes to your family. Yeah, leave it behind. Financially being financially crippled. Leave that to the next generation. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 01:15:47 Sabira says, I have a budget spreadsheet planning for our finances for the next five years. Whoa. Because childcare is expensive and saving in advance is the way to go. Five-year financial plan. Jeepers. Someone's showing off Excel skills. Yeah, well done.
Starting point is 01:16:05 My mum once said, you work hard and deserve to treat yourself now that you can. I've really taken that advice on board. That's a crafty way of saying it. Sage advice. Yeah, I'm a spender. I'm a spender. Good stuff.
Starting point is 01:16:17 People are spending. So all up, what was the overall again? 59. 59. 59% spenders. You know what? I like to think of it as supporting the 59. 59. 59% spenders. You know what? I like to think of it as supporting the economy. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:16:29 We're really, especially after these, you know, hard years, you've got to support the economy. And like you yourself, you have supported the boutique breweries. I think they're called Lion. And what's the other one? You've supported those well, haven't you? I have. And I have supported.
Starting point is 01:16:44 The wine industry. The wine industry deeply. Yeah. The gin industry. Someone's going to prop these guys up. And the moochie industry. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:51 And honestly, I don't need thanks, but you're welcome. New Zealander of the year over here. You're welcome. Oh, maybe. Maybe. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Ailey. ZM's $100,000 secret sound. Soundkeeper Owls is in.
Starting point is 01:17:08 Hi. This looks like a very warm jumper that you're wearing here. Thanks, guys. I've de-popped it. Very warm. It's a good find. You what? Very 90s.
Starting point is 01:17:16 De-pop? It's like this selling secondhand clothing app. Come on, get with it. Yeah, come on. You can go on it. Like a thrift store. Yeah on, get with it. Yeah, come on. You can go on it. Well, like a like a thrift store. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:27 Like an op shop. Yeah, sometimes it's hard to find the good items. So you've got to dig. But yeah, thank you. But so you put you put these items on this app
Starting point is 01:17:34 and then you go like to a virtual app store op shop. It's not op shop. People, people do it. Are the Salvation Army getting a cut of this? Oh, they're long gone, mate.
Starting point is 01:17:44 They're long gone. How are they going to fund their armies? How on earth are we going to fund the armies? Yeah. Missiles that shoot, I don't know, Jesus bullets and such. Oh, dear. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 01:17:56 Secret Sound, it is all thanks to Neon. $100,000 is the jackpot. You can get a Kiwi streaming service. Get great value. Get it on Neon and with a shot right now at 7. Lee, good morning. Good morning. All right, welcome.
Starting point is 01:18:11 You made it. You made it. Well done. The next hard bit is to tell us what this sound is. For $100,000. Is it sliding the handle of a suitcase up? Oh, like one of those telescopic... Click, click, click.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Yeah, yeah. And then when you slide it down, it's like... Yeah, a bit niggly. Come on! And then one of them breaks and it only goes half the way. And then you're in the airport, flopping about. Yes, stuck there. Classic.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Have you tried this yourself, Leigh? I did last night, actually. Now, is there a suitcase in the video? I believe so, yes. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:52 There was a lot in that video. Yeah. Because it could also be a latch. We've had the briefcase kind of latch.
Starting point is 01:18:58 That's been a good one. But this is the handle. Because there's definitely a frr to it. And you can kind of hear...
Starting point is 01:19:05 Yeah, there's kind of like a clicking lock-in sound. Yeah. Okay. Cool. Good guess. We'll lock that in. If you win, there'll be no Depop for you. Why? Oh my god. I'm just downloading it.
Starting point is 01:19:21 You can probably find your league jerseys that you like on there. You're going to trade me jerseys that you like on there. Yeah, yeah. You're going to trade me? Yeah, I'm just thinking. What's that one? Boy, have I got a whole world for you. I can show you a world.
Starting point is 01:19:37 Lee. Chuck and my coffee can leak out of this. Oh, my gosh. Not a long time. It would be a crack. It's quite a big chip. No, no, no. Sorry about that, Lee.
Starting point is 01:19:47 Not now. That was just really important. I just saw a giant gaping hole in my coffee cup. That's not good. I'm going into cardiac arrest. Yeah, exactly. Sorry, Lee. What are you waiting for, $100,000 or something?
Starting point is 01:20:00 I am. Lee, before anyone else talks, I will tell you that is not the secret sound. Oh, my God. Oh, no. Your pauses are so long, Owls. I just... You get distracted. I knew I had enough time to ask about my coffee cup.
Starting point is 01:20:15 Lee, unfortunately, not the suitcase handle, but there is another chance to get through at 8 o'clock if you think you know what the secret sound is, all thanks to Neon. Got some bloody good guesses out there. Back to Deepak for you. Next. And me and all the cool kids. Soundkeeper Owls joins us
Starting point is 01:20:37 and Alana. Good morning, Alana. Hi, good morning. Good morning. Alright, well, you've poured through no doubt all the wrong guesses and clues, including the latest video clue, where Soundkeeper Owls walks through the second-hand store, the junk store, Junker Disorderly. Is your guess in that video? It is, I think, multiple times.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Oh, okay. Well, this is the sound. For $100,000, what is it? I think it's the sound of a strobe light turning on. A strobe light turning on? Do they even make a noise? Yeah, can you explain? They do make a noise.
Starting point is 01:21:16 When you first turn them on, they make like a clicking sound and I can see like strobe lights, just go lights have strobes in them, or the clues kind of lead to flashing or strobes in one way or another. When I first left home, we had a strobe light in our flat. That's how we acquired it.
Starting point is 01:21:37 That's a horrible idea. But even now, me and my flatmate, if we were feeling down on a Tuesday night, we'd just turn off all the lights and put the strobe on. Was there a bar missing a strobe light? No comment. Okay, fair. It may or may not have come from
Starting point is 01:21:52 Corny Place. I was going to say, we're an acting school that can no longer do the lightning scene from Macbeth. Oh no! Not the Tempest. Alana? Yeah? What would you do with 100k oh my god
Starting point is 01:22:07 a lot yeah fair enough a heck of a lot we've got yeah lots of things that would help
Starting point is 01:22:13 with that yep I bet and then you've got to have some fun as well maybe get yourself a strobe light
Starting point is 01:22:19 oh if it's the right answer you deserve a strobe the condition with every secret sound if you win you have to buy what makes the sound. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:27 Tradition. Yeah. Okay, Alana, we're locking it in. But unfortunately, that's not the secret sound. Again, no. Is this it? No, just another long pause secret sound. Again, no. Is this it? No, just another long pause. Yeah, sorry, Alana.
Starting point is 01:22:49 Thanks, Soundkeeper Owls. 11 o'clock is your next chance.
