Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley podcast.
Thanks to McCafe.
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,
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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,
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
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?
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
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
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,
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Skiddly Dee away to the Cook Islands.
No Coromandel in there?
Not mentioned in the New Zealand.
Right, because producer Anna, you're actually,
you were meant to be going camping this weekend.
Have you thought about this?
Because there's a cyclone coming.
Look, this isn't my first reservation about this trip.
It's the camping was the first bit, eh?
I'm just not a fan of the outdoors, of tents,
on sleeping on anything that's not as silly, post-traumatic.
I just really want some sleep.
Really?
And I don't know if a dock campground is where I'm going to find it.
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?
Blow-up mattress, foam roll-out underneath,
possibly ask if I can bring my Nespresso if we're going to a different campground.
Car plug-ins.
Oh, my God.
You showed me the car,
Mr Bun Buns,
who works,
and is part of,
works upstairs at Driven
reviewing cars.
He's got a hearse this weekend.
Yes.
No shit,
this thing looks like
a Volkswagen hearse.
Wow.
It's a Caddy California.
So I'm very lucky this time
I'll be sleeping in a car,
but we are also going to take
the blow up mattress
just in case he snores.
Yes. And then I'll have the luxury luxury car myself and he can sleep outside.
Yeah, hot play. That's fair.
It'll be great. I'm so
excited. I can't wait to see one of the news
floating out to sea on a... On a
lilo. No, on the inflatable mattress.
It'll be the
catty California, because isn't it like a bright
orange? Yeah. You'll see that thing
a mile away. From the sophisticated ZM Think Tank, this is the top six.
Hi there.
Britney Spears is having a baby, guys.

Jaden and Sean.
Oh.
Jaden James and Sean Preston.
Okay, so pretty standard names.
Yeah.
Okay.
Sean and Jaden and...
Who did you come up with?
And...
No, because I think if Brittany would, like...
If anyone's going to name their baby something,
because it sounds kind of nice, but it already has a meaning,
it's going to be Britney.
Absolutely.
So I've got first name and middle name.
She's not in the conservatorship,
so no one can tell her what to name her kids.
Absolutely not.
She's going to go wild, I reckon.

She's rubbing her handbag against herself.
I'm not.
My handbag is leather, not waterproof jacket fabric.
Kate, which one of us, for bluff or stuff,
which one of us is not lying? Which one is actually wearing the snowboarding jacket?
Well, I didn't hear much from Vaughn, so I'm going to go with Vaughn.
Are you sure?
Because he was at his head in his school bag.
To say the least, no.
I mean, to say the least, you guys oversold it.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm going to go with Vaughn.
Oh, my Katie.
Oh, Katie. Oh, Katie.
Oh, my Katie.
I'm so sorry.
Let's go to Shania.
Good morning, Shania.
Hi, good morning.
Okay, well, we have eliminated Vaughn.
Yeah, and we know we can eliminate Fletch because he is a terrible liar.
We cannot because, Shania, did you not hear the Velcro on my jacket?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, but Shania, Shania, listen to the Velcro on my jacket.
Oh, my God.
Hayley went to acting school, Shania.
Oh, it's very similar,
but I'm going to go with split.
Shania, you fool!
Fool!
Come on, Shania.
Tiahu, come on.
We've eliminated two.
Who's wearing it?
I think you are wearing it.
Yeah!
Do you know what that is?
That's my $40,000 acting degree.
Yeah, that's a great acting degree.
Congratulations.
We have for you a multi-day pass for Kadrona and Triple Cone.
Congratulations.
Thank you very much, guys.
Enjoy.
Easy.
And Kadrona and Triple Cone's early bird multi-day sale is on now.
They've got it all this winter.
Family fun and New Zealand's best parks at Kadrona.
Big mountain terrain and big views at Triple Cone.
Let me have a look at the webcams.
Big energy.
Webcams.
Oh, yes.
Look at that, webcams.
I want clear skies.
I thought it was supposed to be Rainy a little dusty
No North Island's getting
The tropical cyclone
It's cold in there
I got to go to Kadrona
When I was doing
The Tourism New Zealand thing
And I got to go
I was there at like
4.30 in the morning
And they hadn't even
Started the ski lifts
And they got to see it all
Come to life
Oh yeah
It's amazing eh
It was incredible
And then
Being up there
When the sun comes up
When the sun comes up
And then all the pre-work skiers.
Some people go up there and have a little ski.
A pre-work ski.
Have a ski and then go to work.
Imagine that to start your day.
It was glorious.
Nowadays you just say, I'm working from home today.
Yeah.
On the slopes all day.
Yeah.
Send some emails when you're on the chairlift.
Get on your laptop on the chairlift.
Yeah.
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM. Wow. Do you wantan and Hayley. 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,
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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?
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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!
She's home.
Where were you yesterday?
In Doha Airport.
Wow.
And the day before that?
In London.
Wow.
Planes.
Is that time travel?
Yeah.
But Olivia, we're going to go now and we're going to surprise your parents at work.
Yeah, mum and dad's work.
I'm feeling nervous.
I hope dad's heart's okay.
There's only one way to find out.
Okay, Olivia, are you as nervous as I am?
I am so nervous.
So nervous.
We've got our plan, our decoy here.
Yeah, this is a morning tea shout.
We're right outside your parents' work.
Should we go surprise them?
Yes.
Okay, put your face, put your face.
While Olivia waited in the car, we went inside and met her mum and dad.
And I personally am very excited for those delicious muffins.
Hi guys, sorry for the intrusion.
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.
There's coffees to come.
This is our dad, Arthur.
Arthur, hi Arthur.
Sandra.
Sandra and...
Hi Sandra.
Hayley, get the green box.
I forgot the green. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Hang on.
There's a green box to come and holding that green box is Olivia.
There better be tissues in that box.
I've got it.
Got the green box.
Oh my god.
Here it is.
This is our intern.
Hi!
Oh my god. Hi! Oh my god. Oh my god. There it is. This is our intern. Hi! Oh my god!
Oh my god!
Now she said dad would cry.
Guys, there's no muffins!
There's nothing in these boxes.
Olivia is your muffin.
Oh, there's nothing better.
Oh no!
How long's it been?
Since we probably spent time, probably three years.
Yeah.
I know how to go now.
See, that's so amazing.
I'm more than happy to bring your daughter home
for a short while.
Oh, that's so special.
Thank you so much.
That's the most amazing thing. Thank you so much. It's the most amazing thing.
Thank you so much.
Incredible.
Yeah, one of a million.
Thank you so much.
So welcome.
I like your shoes, man.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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...
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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...
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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
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.
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?
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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...
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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Have you tried this yourself, Leigh?
I did last night,
actually.
Now, is there a
suitcase in the
video?
I believe so, yes.
Okay.
There was a lot in
that video.
Yeah.
Because it could
also be a latch.
We've had the
briefcase kind of
latch.
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...
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
a lot
yeah
fair enough
a heck of a lot
we've got
yeah
lots of things
that would help
with that
yep
I bet
and then you've got
to have some fun
as well
maybe get yourself
a strobe light
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.
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.
Thanks, Soundkeeper Owls.
11 o'clock is your next chance.
