Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Fawn and Hayley podcast. It's thanks to McCafe. Grab a rich,
smooth barista-made coffee.
I'm going overseas on an international trip.
All the way to freezing cold Melbourne.
As soon as we hang up.
As soon as we hang up on the phone.
As soon as we finish it all.
As soon as we finish today, you're off.
Look, I'm going to take it.
I'm doing Have You Been Paying Attention Australia this weekend.
Yeah.
And I don't care where I'm going.
I'm just excited to go to the International Airport.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah, first time in ages.
You, of course, went international to Disneyland.
Yeah, the airport was, granted, there were only two flights leaving that entire night,
two flights from Auckland Airport, so everything was shut down.
Wow.
There was one food place open and that one big duty-free shop,
but that was it.
And no one was there.
This looks busy.
Okay, busy time.
The flight.
I mean, it's a classic flight to Australia.
Your flight's busy, but you think everyone on that flight
spread out over an airport.
The airport will still feel empty.
I bet you the Kuru Lounge will be pretty empty.
Is there even any of the shops open?
That was the fullest part of it.
Just the one duty-free shop.
One.
Oh, good, because that's what I'm looking forward to is the duty-free.
I don't know what I'm going to buy, but I want to buy something.
Just because it's been so long.
Yeah, just duty-free shopping.
I don't know why.
I feel like every time you go overseas, you're like,
I probably need some new headphones.
Get a new little set of headphones
I'm just like three bottles of booze for $99
yeah but I don't want to carry that all the way to Melbourne
oh no you get it on the way back
you get it on the way back
does anyone need anything? a Toblerone?
nah
one thing I don't need is chocolate
I would love some
but I certainly don't need it
let me check what time are you flying out today?
1.30 1.30.
1.30.
There's a flight to Perth at 12.50.
There's a Numera at 1.
There's a Fiji at 1.
And then there's you guys at 1.30.
So you're literally going the busiest time today.
Yeah, this is great.
And I'm going to COVID Central Melbourne and then hoping to get back
on Sunday. Masks.
Just do your best. I'm coming back
on Sunday a
matter of hours before the
no pre-departure testing thing
kicks in. So I've got to get
one. I'm going to Zoom
a nurse and she's going to watch me shove a
stick in my snus. What a fucking rip-off
eh? You could so just be like be like yep it's up my nose and it's not they go further and you can never
take it out of the sight of the laptop once you take it out in case you really change it with
tamper oh okay oh so you can't go like oh yeah i'll just put it down but it's gonna go flat
you gotta hold it down i think because a friend of mine did it.
You've got to tilt the thing down so they can see it there.
Oh, okay.
But I've got magician training, so I reckon I could slide it.
Oh, really?
It's a great sleight of hand trick.
Oh, negative.
I didn't know it was negative.
Well, good luck with getting home.
Thank you.
Maybe see you on Monday.
I am worried about it right now.
Play it. ZM's Flesh for the Nightly. Happy see you on Monday.
Happy Friday.
Happy Friday.
Happy Earth Friday.
Jake Paul's broke.
Oh, really?
Jake Paul's broke.
His YouTube and boxing money was all invested in cryptocurrency. I don't know if you know this week has been one of the largest cryptocurrency failure crashes.
Yeah, all those celebrities that were endorsing it
during the Super Bowl halftime ads
have all gone suspiciously quiet.
I did feel sorry because didn't...
What was the country?
El Salvador.
Yeah.
Although their president's a bit of a prick.
Is he?
Yeah, so...
Well, that's...
I still feel sorry for the people.
They did...
Yeah, they've gone all in on it, haven't they?
They want to make it their national currency.
What, crypto?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Guys, get a grip.
Go for a walk.
Do you know what I mean?
Look up at the sky.
Yeah.
And then chuck me a couple of emails because I've got NFTs coming out my ass.
But I can sell you.
Oh, man, what a great investment.
Well, he's going to have to do some more boxing matches and some videos, isn't he?
Boxing.
To make that back.
Boxing.
Numb the pain by getting a brain injury.
Yeah.
Well, at least those head injuries will make you forget
that you had a lot of money once and lost it all.
On the show today,
the last day for Retro Petrol Time Machine,
thanks to Gull.
So, 8 o'clock this morning, your next chance.
Any celebrities on the show today?
Midday and 5.
We blew our line.
I was going to say, we should have saved one from yesterday.
We had three yesterday and none today.
That's what we call binging.
We could call up some of our celeb friends.
Just get their hot take on some political issues.
You don't have any celeb friends?
I don't have any celeb friends.
Maddie McLean?
My parents ran into Maddie McLean at the Sydney airport yesterday.
Did they?
Yeah, they said, look. Now, is Maddie McLean? My parents ran into Maddie McLean at the Sydney airport yesterday. Did they? Yeah, they said,
look, now,
is Maddie McLean on a flight to Sydney
or does he have
a twin brother?
I was like,
you know he doesn't
have a twin brother.
And then, yeah,
they talked to him
at the airport.
He's off to Broome
to promote Western Australia
as a tourist destination.
Yeah, he's doing a big tour.
Oh, fun.
Did they talk to him?
Yeah.
Oh, they did?
Yeah, okay.
I'm doing a big
Australian tour today, aren't I? Going to Melbourne and then coming back the next day. So have you been paying attention to him? Yeah. Oh, they did. Yeah, okay. I'm doing a big Australian tour today, aren't I?
Going to Melbourne and then coming back the next day.
Have you been paying attention to Australia?
Yeah.
I'm heading overseas.
Guys, we're on an overseas trip.
Is it your first time in how long?
No, I did sneak over to Melbourne last year for one day.
But before that, I don't know, 2018.
Wow.
What mask have you got?
The N95.
Yeah.
Cool, cool, cool.
I mean, it didn't stop me getting COVID-19 to America,
but I still don't think it was the plane that gave it to me.
Oh, you would have had it before.
I think I got it in the crowds.
Yeah.
It's definitely like a crowd thing.
Well, good to know they're dropping the testing.
I know, but I'm coming back on Sunday. Is it good to know? You think it's good to know they're dropping the testing. I know, but I'm coming back on Sunday.
Is it good to know?
You think it's good to know?
Well, it's good to know for me because I'm going in a couple.
I don't think it's good to know.
Because I would prefer to know that the people on the plane with me
had tested negative recently.
So at least they weren't in the most contagious period of COVID.
It says you were literally positive on the plane
and it was a waste of time.
It doesn't matter. I think 3% of people that were on... But the people. Yeah, what did that matter? And it was a waste of time. I know. It doesn't matter.
I think 3% of people that were on...
But the people sitting either side of me didn't get COVID.
Yeah, people with...
I read yesterday 3% of people tested positive after returning to New Zealand.
Yeah.
On a day like...
Oh, my God.
I don't know.
3%?
So you're like 3%, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, lucky boy, lucky boy.
Yeah, so that midnight Monday, they...
Yeah, midnight Monday and I land 5pm Sunday.
So you're going to have to find a shemiste.
You're going to have to find a shemiste.
A shemiste in Melbourne.
And get a test.
Alright, also coming up on the show, the top six.
Yeah, the top six pieces of trash.
We needed more than the new TVNZ series FBoy Island,
which I didn't know this is an American model.
We're doing a local version.
I can't believe there's a show called FBoy Island
in this current climate.
It's wild.
Let's discuss soon.
We've got a chance for you to win cash as well
in about half an hour.
Beat the buzzer, light gear.
The movie is out and lots of cash to give away.
So make sure you listen out for the activator.
It's coming up.
Yes. Next on the show though, watch out you the activator. It's coming up. Yes.
Next on the show, though, watch out, you two.
I've got some skills up my sleeve.
I'm going to hypnotise you.
Oh, my gosh.
Brick it.
Yeah, get ready.
Am I going to be a chicken?
Have you ever seen a live hypnotist before?
Yes.
Yeah?
And we've had them in studio in the past,
in our long and illustrious radio career.
Wow.
Did it work on either of you?
No.
No.
I went to a hypnotist show when I was at uni,
and just nobody was going up on stage.
He's like, I need volunteers.
And no one was going up.
How very New Zealand they'd be like.
Everyone was just like, no, we came for the show, mate.
I'm not going to bloody book like a chicken. So I went up, and then it was going up. How very New Zealand they'd be like. Everyone was just like, no, we came for the show, mate. I'm not wearing a bloody
milk-clotted chicken.
So I went up
and then it didn't work
but I felt so sorry for him.
I like lightly played along.
Don't they sort of say
you have to be susceptible
to suggestion
and kind of like open to the idea.
That's where I'm like,
I've been hypnotized once
for a phobia.
You know the one,
I can't say the word.
Oh, yes. Or the tiny, I can't say the word. Oh yes.
Or the tiny,
the things that are attracted
to outdoor lights
and indoor lights.
That's the M word.
Yeah.
And it didn't,
it didn't really,
it clearly didn't really work
because I literally
am pulling my skin.
Because if I said the word moth.
Hey,
woo,
we're having a good day.
It's not,
yeah.
Yeah.
But I mean,
that's sort of,
I guess it's a different thing.
A woman who worked for my dad had a hypnotized gastro-
Yeah, I've heard about that.
A friend went to one of them.
I told you about it.
And then the guy died.
Oh, that's right.
He hypnotized her.
That's right.
He hypnotized her and he died.
He died with control.
With control.
And I remember a hypnotist telling us once,
because we were both, they tried to put us under.
And they said radio hosts or people that are hosting things are very reluctant because...
You lose control.
You didn't want to give up control.
You don't want to give up control.
You know, you're running a show.
And I wasn't willing to believe that it could work.
Well, we're both very cynical.
Yeah.
So it wouldn't work.
Probably why.
But we've seen it happen to people.
Yes. Many people. And it's insane to watch.
I know.
What is this?
Remember, I've been doing that hypnotism app for my gut health.
Apparently, you can heal IBS through hypnotism.
I don't believe that.
Sounds like BS.
Well, let's just say my stomach is still an absolute mess.
Anyway, so a hypnotist was being interviewed and he shared the very
simple hack for getting
people under in their power.
So I'm going to do it to you two now.
Wait, wait, wait. Is this...
You don't want to be people driving along,
have people driving along and you're just like
hypnotising them. If you were driving,
which you most likely are,
yeah, just
listen along
you two can try it
okay
wait wait wait
what if you put us under
I think you have
too much faith in me
to be fair
okay
if I put you under
this could be your new
strand of comedy
I think
I think we've been
missing a high profile
hypnotist
on the New Zealand
comedy scene wow guys Hayley Sproul hypnotist on the New Zealand comedy scene.
Wow.
Guys.
Haley Sproul, hypnotist.
I'm moving away from the songs.
I say combine all.
I need one of my lucky ventriloquism.
That's great.
Now pretend you're trapped in a glass box.
Amazing.
Amazing.
All of them.
Oh, my God.
I'm a whole variety show in myself.
Okay.
Well, let's see how I go with hypnotism.
Okay.
Okay, so you're going to hold out your hands in front of you,
straight with your hands open.
And palms down?
Palms down.
Okay.
Don't do this yet.
When I count, I'm going to count to three.
On two, you're going to turn your left palm upwards.
Okay.
And on three, you're going to close your eyes.
Okay.
Ready? On one, we do the, what? One, you're going to close your eyes. Okay. Ready?
On one, we do the, what?
One, you do nothing.
This is why I can't follow instructions.
One, you do nothing.
I've already forgotten.
Two, you turn your left palm.
Three, you close your eyes.
Ready?
I closed my eyes already.
Sorry.
You've got to follow instructions.
I'm sorry.
I'm terrible at this.
One, two, three.
Okay.
Now with your eyes closed. Fletch, close your eyes. Okay, now with your eyes closed.
Fletch, close your eyes.
Don't peek.
Now you just gotta listen to my instructions.
Okay.
In your left hand, I want you to imagine
that you're holding 10 very, very heavy books.
And in your right hand, I want you to imagine
on your ring finger is a helium balloon
pulling in the opposite direction i want you to
imagine this yeah for three two one okay now open your eyes now tell vaughn he's a chicken
why was that so apparently you're supposed to be under or you did i mean you hit you went like this
yeah i did i did feel like my hands should move.
That's pretty powerful.
But then when they started moving, I was like,
A, I wouldn't be able to hold 10 heavy books this well.
And I don't think a helium balloon would raise my hand one helium balloon.
Well, apparently this worked.
He was being interviewed by this thing.
And the moment he clicked his fingers, everyone was like.
So I don't have the power.
Because I've watched someone be hypnotised
and there was a lot of talk about relaxing in a lift.
You're in a lift and you're going down and you're on the basement.
A lot of visualisation.
Ding, ding, ding.
And every floor you feel yourself getting sleepier and sleepier.
And then...
OK, well, back to the silly voices.
Why are you behaving like a chicken?
I'm not. Oh, my God, back to the silly voices. Vaughan, why are you behaving like a chicken? I'm not.
Oh, my God, Emma.
You are.
You've been clucking like a chicken this whole time.
What are you doing?
Quick, get me out.
Get me out of this.
Get me out of it.
It's not funny anymore.
It's not funny anymore.
You're under my control.
All right.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
It's actually just on Instagram stories, and I saw somebody making a soup. A fellow gardener that I control. All right. Clay, Zed, Enz, Fletch, Vaughn, and Hayley. It's actually just on Instagram stories,
and I saw somebody making a soup.
A fellow gardener that I follow.
Shout out Poppy's Farm Yard.
She has a great garden.
Okay.
If you want some garden insight.
This is sexy Instagram content.
Sexy Instagram content.
She's recording her garden yield.
I'm going to make, she's rocking,
she's rocking some cauliflower she picked today.
It's cauliflower season.
It's brassica season.
She's rocking 310 grams.
And that was just one that she just picked today just for her.
But then a couple of things later, she's got it in a soup.
And I don't know how I feel about that.
Oh, yum.
And that's the sort of thing not every person can afford to do at the moment
because fruit and veg is up the wazoo, out the wazoo, back in the wazoo.
Everyone needs a...
Around the wazoo.
There's a lot of wazoo.
So I've been saying for forever,
you need to go to the cheaper supermarkets.
Like I go to the Asian supermarket for a lot of fruit and veg.
Totally.
So much cheaper.
I'm lucky because we're sort of rurally,
so as you go by there's all those like fruit and veggie kind of stalls.
Market garden places. market garden places.
Market garden places.
That supply the food chain but also have their own outlets.
Yeah, and some of it's not as nice looking as the supermarkets.
Hang on, you say that you do this, but when I bought an organic off the side of the road
mandarins, you absolutely ripped me apart because they were so ugly.
Don't get me wrong, I want sprayed fruit.
Yeah, yeah, you love the spray.
You opened up your mandarin
and there was james like james and the giant peach there was like a small human a caterpillar
an earwig it was delicious though a thousand seagulls yeah it was disgusting with caterpillar
silk it was disgusting uh so in australia something that's happening is and this is wild
they pay for broccoli by weight.
Whereas when, I'm pretty sure most supermarkets here,
when you go through the self-serve with the broccoli, it's like, how many?
Yeah, by unit.
Yeah.
And you go, one.
And I got the biggest one.
Of course.
You always get the biggest broccoli.
Even if there's a little bit of, even if there's one part of it's a little bit of a smush,
it's still bigger.
Yeah.
And you're paying per unit. And they're not that big at the moment, the broccolis.
No, they're measly.
But they should be big because it's broccoli season.
So in Australia, the photos have surfaced of people cutting the stalks off
and leaving them.
Oh, I get it.
That makes sense.
Because you're paying by weight.
But then the stalk, and this was not something I grew up with
because I grew up with boiled vegetables that didn't have any colour in them by the time
they hit the plate and then... They've gone yellow.
Yeah, yes, and then you drown them in cheese
sauce, but like a lightly
steamed
brock, and then you keep the
stalk of anything that's...
That's where all the good stuff is. Roast that
bad boy. Roasted broccoli
stalks, roasted cauliflower stalks.
Take the outside bit off.
Maybe give it a peel if you're against the leaf bit and that.
But roast them, season them, roll them in garlic and butter.
You can chop them up real small and make a raw broccoli salad.
So good.
Grate them.
You can grate them.
They grate really well in salad.
So I've just Googled Coles, one of the big supermarket chains in Australia.
They sell
their broccoli for $11.90
a kg. So
on the online shopping, it's got
$4.05 for a
tiny broccoli. Oh my god.
And then it said this price
is an estimate.
It'll be weighed
when you do your online shopping. So yeah,
people are literally chopping it off.
No, you've got to use it.
Or chuck it in a stock.
Yeah, but if you were just having, like, I don't know,
some steamed broccoli in a salad, I wouldn't want the stalk.
Yeah, yeah, that's fair enough.
Or take it and feed it to a local cute animal.
No, but you're paying to feed that local cute animal.
Yeah, but it's cute, so you're getting up close cuteness.
Which should have an admission fee
in my opinion.
I have been on record as
in the past taking stalks off apples
and truss tomatoes.
Those truss tomatoes
that he'll be like...
So I always thought he was doing it
because he was trying to make
vine ripened tomatoes
because you know how they're always
on the vine in the soup nuggets.
Look like an individual cheap tomato.
That's why I thought he was doing it.
I was like, why do you do it?
And he's like, because I'm not paying for the stalk.
Yeah, I'm not paying.
But that's the classy bit.
That's how you know that you're better than everyone.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I'm still paying for the trussed tomato, but I'm not.
Okay, imagine this.
Imagine you take all of the stalks off the tomatoes and put them in a bucket.
After, like, 10 years, that's probably $1,000.
You're going to wait 10 years to save $1,000?
Do you know how much you can buy for $1,000 these days?
Like a pair of jeans.
Yeah, and one more tomato.
And one more tomato.
A pair of jeans for $1,000. I'm out of touch. I'm out of jeans. Yeah, and one more tomato. And one more tomato. A pair of jeans for $1,000.
I'm out of touch.
I'm out of touch.
It all adds up is all I'm saying.
And I can see why people in Australia are doing this.
The only reason I ever buy something intentionally small
or try to make something smaller is if it's like cauliflower season
and the cauliflower is ginormous and I know I can't fit it in my fridge.
So sometimes you get a smaller one.
How good is getting such a massive cauliflower?
You put it in the veggie drawer and you have to really slam the door
and just like rips it.
It's like driving a truck under a bridge that's too small for it,
but you just drive it real fast.
I like you, I adore you.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM.
From the yummy ZM Think Tank, this is the top six. Good morning.
As someone who is employed by TVNZ,
this might be somewhat career limiting, but...
Contract. Contracted.
Yeah, at the same time, I'm not paid to retain it.
I'd be on their team when we're not filming.
Have you been paying attention?
Well, I'm a taxpayer, so I technically pay for TVNZ.
I don't know if that's a thing anymoreing Attention? Well, I'm a taxpayer so I technically pay for TVNZ. I don't know
if that's a thing anymore.
Yeah, no, it is a thing.
We should do a more
direct transfer, actually,
as a taxpayer
and as a provider
of television.
You should just pay me.
You just start giving
payless money.
Because I know
that you like
Have You Been Paying Attention.
I do like that show, yes.
You know what I mean?
Cut out the middleman.
I always thought
this was about tax.
You know, some people are like,
I don't want to pay tax
for a bloody beneficiary.
So you say to them,
well, what would you like
your tax to go towards?
Lollies.
And they're like, roads.
And so you're like, okay, cool.
You imagine all of your tax
goes towards roads.
Yes.
And then they're like,
but, but, but, but, but, but,
no, no, no, no.
All of your tax
goes towards the roads
you love so much.
And I think you should
just go in and be like,
what do you like?
And you're like, I like.
Yes, like a potluck spreadsheet when you're like,
who's going to bring what?
Yeah.
Meats, salads, da, da, da.
And you fill it up.
Just lie to them.
They don't know.
All your money went towards hospitals.
I'd like that.
Yeah, me too.
What a stupid idea.
No one's going to be arguing with that, right?
The fire department, who need more money in new trucks apparently.
But anyway, that's off topic because New Zealand is doing a remake
of an American TV show which according to Internet Movie Database, IMDB,
the go-to, the holy grail of information on shows is currently 5 out of 10,
which is a low rating on the Internet Movie Database.
Why would you say would we need to remake a five out of ten television show?
Well, FBoy Island NZ is coming.
And, I mean, there's a multitude of issues with the name alone.
I know.
Why are the, yeah, in this day and age.
Because we all know what the F stands for.
Yeah.
So Siobhan Rurikere will be hosting the show,
the lovely Siobhan.
It'll be filmed in the Pacific Islands and it will involve 20 men,
10 self-proclaimed nice guys looking for love
and 10 self-proclaimed F-boys looking for Fs.
The 10 self-proclaimed nice guys are actually F-boys in disguise.
They just lie to you.
F-boys wearing polos.
Yeah. Yes. And then I, they just lie to you. F-Boys wearing polos. Yeah.
Yes.
And then I believe they go to an island.
Does mum tell them that they're just, like, really special?
Yeah.
He's my special boy.
And you can apply for this now.
So if you know an F-Boy,
it's open for men and women aged 18 to 30 across New Zealand.
Where's it filming?
In the Pacific Islands.
So I'd say it'll be on a Fiji island.
Yeah, I need to get a trip to Fiji,
but, like, prepare to be absolutely ripped apart.
Ask anybody that's gone on a show like this in the past,
in New Zealand, the public.
They're not going to be as nice as your mum is.
No, no.
You've already, yeah, never been told the truth.
The top six disasters we needed more than FBoy Island.
Yeah.
Number six, the ocean temperature to go up by about two degrees.
That's something that we probably could have handled better.
Okay.
And rallied around.
At least then, like, if you're trying to think of positives, warmer swimming.
Number five on the list of the top six disasters we needed more than FBoy Island, coffee.
You know the coffee plant?
To go extinct.
Well, that's apparently happening, isn't it?
Yeah, it's happening slowly.
Are you serious?
It just happens.
It just happens.
You've only just started drinking coffee.
God, no.
I had one and I was like, the whole day.
I don't know how you die.
Far out.
Sometimes I'm like, I've got a headache.
Have I drunk enough water?
Yeah, I think I've drunk enough water.
I haven't had a coffee for three hours.
Oh, no.
Number four on the list of the top six disasters
we needed more than a local version of FBoy Island.
Russia to just take over the rest of Europe.
But then at least fuel prices might have gone down.
I don't know, Vaughn.
I don't know.
Maybe.
Number three on the list of the top six disasters
we needed more than FBoy Island.
Just a huge pile of tyres that just catch on fire.
Or love a tyre fire.
Oh, yeah.
I know, they go for ages, eh?
Forever more.
So smoky.
It makes a great shot for the news, too.
Yeah, it does.
There's been a fire.
Tyre fire.
Across the city.
Amcam footage.
Number two on the list of the top six disasters we needed more than
FBoy Island.
Are the internet
just a straight up
stop working?
That'd be horrible.
More horrible than
FBoy Island in New Zealand?
Fair call.
I'd say on par.
And number one on the list
of the top six disasters
we needed more than
FBoy Island.
Monkeypox to merge
with COVID.
Oh.
Yeah.
And to be honest,
that could probably happen
on FBoy on the Land.
A lot of
mixing of the bits. That's today's top
six.
Now look, when it comes
to diet, apparently
we are basically
none the wiser with what we're
eating. A new study has shown that 90% of us believe we eat a healthier diet
than we are actually consuming.
So they studied 10,000 people.
They kept a food diary.
I mean, how honest were they?
Because, you know, when you do food diaries sometimes for your doctor
or something, you're like, I just want to include that.
I want to include that chocolate bar.
So they kept a food diary and then they rated how healthy they thought their diet was.
Like, you know, people are like, oh, you're relatively healthy.
I have a few days off.
That kind of vibe.
And then nutritionists and scientists looked at what they were actually eating.
90% of them were wrong about how healthy their diet was.
But we think we're healthier than we are.
But do you know what?
Like food companies, they're pretty naughty as well.
I know.
You think about like all the labelling,
the labelling on like fruit juices, for example.
Oven baked, not fried.
Yeah, like, you know.
Still a chip.
Naturally flavoured.
Naturally flavoured.
With natural sugars.
Yeah, there's still like, you know, a tonne of sugar in there
and that's what's bad for us.
My vibe.
Remember Fat Free?
Yeah, oh my God.
97% Fat Free was like the big one
and my mum, fat was like the enemy for her generation.
Yeah, 80s and the 90s, it was all, you know, go fat free,
but it's an actual fact that was just...
Insane sugar.
Yeah, replaced with sugar.
Yeah, I just literally listened
to a podcast on this
about the fat free
phase
and how
it was
yeah they just
amped the sugar
to add flavour
fat's good for you
eat fat
documentaries as well
have taught us a lot
like the
that sugar film
yes
about how much sugar
is in everything
yeah I know
mine's the
pea snaps
that's my like
I'm just having a
healthy alternative to a chip.
No, no, no, you're not.
The bag serves five.
You're having all the worst parts of the pea.
They don't serve five.
There's very little pea in that pea snap.
It's mostly oil.
It's mostly snap.
That pea mush was deep fried in.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I guess I'm kind of of this vibe. It's mostly snap. That pea mush was deep fried in. Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I guess I'm kind of of this vibe that I feel like I eat relatively healthy.
I eat a lot of vegetables.
Have you done a MyFitnessPal and you scan the barcodes
and it pops up the calories because you're calorie counting
and then you scan something and you're like,
I'll just scan this and this will be nice.
And you scan it and you're like, that can't be right.
And you scan it again and you're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
The thing with MyFitnessPal is like
sometimes if you input something manually
rather than scan,
you put it in manually
and then there's different options.
So it'd be like apple, say it's an apple.
No, say it's like turkey sandwich.
Yeah.
And then you put that in
and then you just can go down
and choose whichever turkey sandwich suits
what you want it to say.
So like one turkey sandwich will be like 700 calories and one's like 350.
I'm pretty sure I ate that version.
It was a 350 calorie sandwich.
I feel like it was quite small.
Yeah, it wasn't good enough to warrant 700 calories of my day.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No.

You sound like Aaron
Blake good morning
You can't trust humans
Have you met anyone
Good morning Good morning.
Good morning, Blake.
Can we trust you, Blake, not to Google?
You sure can.
Yeah, I can feel it, Blake.
He's an honest boy.
I've never met a Blake that's trusted.
Now, Blake, here is just a bit of the news.
Have a listen.
Next to the ultimate citizen's arrest,
a Queensland man stopped a thief from stealing his family's car
with a...
The alleged perpetrator was still inside the car
when Brendan Mills jumped into action using...
How did Brendan, how did the man stop someone stealing his car?
Sledgehammer.
Oh, good guess.
Good guess.
Wrong.
Not a sledgehammer.
Not a sledgehammer.
And reversibly damaging his own car.
Great song, though.
Rosie.
Rosie, how did he stomp the man stealing his car?
Maybe like a pipe, some sort of lead pipe.
Oh, you're brutal.
Oh, this is Rosie.
Yes, Rosie.
This is a lot about Rosie, doesn't it?
Thank you, Rosie.
Kent, good morning.
Ollie?
Ollie, yeah.
We'll go to Ollie before Kent.
Ollie, how did he stop him stealing his car?
He threw his letterbox at him.
So he destroyed his own personal property
to stop someone stealing his personal property.
It's not the letterbox, Ollie.
Thanks, Ollie.
Let's go to Kent now.
Kent, how did he stop him stealing his car?
I actually bought this one and it was a forklift.
Yay!
The Queensland man stopped a thief
from stealing his family's car
with a forklift.
The alleged perpetrator was still inside the car
when Brendan Mills jumped into action
using the machine to raise the red Volkswagen off the ground
until police arrived.
It's so funny.
You see the thing, like, floating,
and the cops are just under, like,
well, we got you, don't we?
He couldn't even get out.
Kent, you are the first winner? He couldn't even get out.
Kent, you are the first winner of just a bit of the news.
$100 is all yours.
How good.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
All right, a couple of minutes.
And you didn't Google, Kent?
No, no.
No, no, Kent's honest.
I can feel it in his soul.
Kent, every Kent I know wouldn't know how to be on the phone but then flick down
the door,
open up the browser,
Google the thing,
flick it back down
all the while not
hanging up on the phone
Is that true, Kent?
No, no,
none of that, mate.
Yeah, you can't work it out.
You wouldn't be able to work it.
He's an honest boy.
Play ZM's
Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
This is quite,
I think this is quite
a cool move
on Kate Middleton's behalf
and her mother,
Carol Middleton.
Carol.
Carol.
Carol.
Carol?
Is it Carol
if you put an E on the end?
No.
No, it's Carol.
The E's silent.
Carol King spout hers,
Carol with an E on the end, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, and she's Carol King.
Well, in 2021,
Kate Middleton wore a pink dress.
It was like hot pink and everyone was like,
oh my God, this dress is incredible.
And that's why people remembered it.
So when her mum, Carol, stepped out in it last week,
everyone was like, is that the dress? And now people are like, even the Duchess
of Cambridge shares her clothes
with her mum. Which is kind of
cool. That's actually something that Kate Middleton
has done her whole time. Because
they're very rich, very wealthy.
But they are of the people, for the people.
So she often like repeats
outfits. I'd love to be rich and pretend
to be of the people, for the people. She is so
far from one
of us. So far.
Of the people for the people. But this is one of the
things that she has been praised for. Oh, a little
tight in the breast area actually, Carol.
One of the things she's been praised for
is that she
reuses outfits but
wears like cheap designers and not just
like Alexander McQueen
but like wears, you know, what do you call it?
High street designers.
So her mum has stepped out in the same dress she wore a number of years ago.
I am just noticing the button's a little tight.
It's not a perfect fit.
Yeah, but still, that's pretty amazing.
She looks absolutely incredible.
So that's at the, what is it?
The Royal Ascot horse racing.
Oh, okay.
Polo.
Yeah, right.
One of those things.
One of those things.
An event that's of the people
It's of the people
An event of the people
For the people
So
And they've done this
A number of times
That's great
Because we
I mean I don't want to say
Women do this more than men
But
I was just thinking about that
On the drive to work
This morning
There's a coat
In the wardrobe
That Shade bought
And I made a real big
Bitchy
Crazy Meltdown about how much it cost When she bought it Yeah Coats are expensive I haven't seen it worn More than twice in the morning. There's a coat in the wardrobe that Shade bought and I made a real big, bitchy, crazy meltdown
about how much it cost
when she bought it.
Yeah.
Coats are expensive.
I haven't seen it worn
more than twice.
Now I was promised
it was going to be worn.
Is it a statement coat
that every time you wear it
people will be like,
oh, the coat.
Yeah, but don't spend
that much money on a coat
that you can't wear every day.
I've got a couple of things
like that that you go,
you can only rock it
a couple of times
and then Aaron's like,
well, why don't you sell it?
I'm like, that's a beautiful dress.
I'm not getting rid of that.
I just hate it.
Well, wear it.
Or wear two.
I can't.
But do you think women do that more than men?
Absolutely.
Because guys will just have the same thing and just wear it until it dies.
I think as well, in general, I'm being very vague here,
but in general, women's fashion is more kind of loud, I guess,
or more distinct.
Whereas men, it's like shirt, pants, jacket.
Jeans.
Yeah, exactly. So if you're going to a wedding and you like shirt, pants, jacket. Jeans, yeah, exactly.
So if you're going to a wedding and you wear the same suit at five weddings,
no one gives a shit.
Remember when the news did that?
That's right.
It was a male and female news duo,
and she got burned for wearing the same outfit.
Carl Stefanovic in Australia.
Yes.
And he wore the same suit for a month? He wore the same suit, no, a year.
A year.
And no one made a comment and she repeated one outfit
and everyone was like, why are you wearing that?
She's worn that before.
Yeah, wow.
And then it came out that he was also getting paid
astronomically more than her and the news place wouldn't match it.
But it was nice that he made that small gesture.
Because he wasn't going to give up his wages
to make sure there was a quality there.
No.
Anyway, this is big Patsy Haley energy.
My mum and I have shared, well, I say shared. I wear my mum's clothes all the time. I love a quality there. Yeah. Anyway, this is big Patsy Haley energy. My mum and I have shared, well, I say shared.
I wear my mum's clothes all the time.
I love a clothes share.
So that's what we wanted to ask.
Who do you share your clothes with?
Maybe it's your partner.
When I was 16, my boyfriend, who was very skinny,
used to wear my clothes and always looked way better in them than I did.
I was really like, oh, he'd be like, oh, I love that jumper,
and like chuck it on. I'd go, oh. I was really like, oh. He'd be like, oh, I love that jumper. And like chuck it on.
I'd go, oh.
I guess that's yours now.
And I'd wear my skinny jeans and be like,
these are a nice loose fit.
And I'd be like, oh.
I was a curvy gal.
But yeah, who do you share your clothes with?
Because it would be, do you think like,
would you go Harvey's with a friend
if you were the same size?
And then if you were at different events,
just share?
Me and my best friend used to do this when we
first got into like clothes. When we left
high school, I worked
at a designer clothing store and we'd go halves
and like share it. And you'd get a
staff discount, would you? Yeah, and then she'd go into
Siggy Hole in it.
I'm a
spiller. I spill things.
The other day when Patrick Gow was here and I had that big oil stain on my top and I worked out where that came from. I'm a spiller I spill things I remember the day
when Patrick Gow was here
and I had that big oil stain
on my top
and I worked out
where that came from
I was lying on the couch
and I just had like
snacks on my stomach
and it left an oily stain
on my t-shirt
now if I was in some sort of
cohabitation situation
with people
I can't share things
you couldn't share clothes
with like
flatmates back in the day?
No, no, no. I've never done it.
I don't think I ever have.
People always say this with people in same-sex relationships.
Oh, it must be so convenient you have one wardrobe.
They're like, no, we're still two distinct
personalities. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or even
sizes. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Alright, well, 0800DARLSATM,
do you do this? Are you a clothes sharer?
And who do you share clothes with?
Yeah.
Friends?
Maybe the boyfriend wears your underwear.
Hey, no judge here.
We're not here to judge at all.
Well, maybe you wear his stuff and it really, really annoys him.
Men's underwear is so much more comfortable than women's. I'm wide awake, I crave your face Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Play ZM.
Well, revelations in studio.
We're talking about clothes sharing.
Yes, Kate Middleton's mother, Carol, or Carole, we're not sure,
has been seen wearing a dress that Kate made famous a couple of years ago.
And Vaughn just during that song said,
oh, Sade's got a jumper and I've been wearing it.
I've worn it. I put it on
once because it's an oversized jumper. I was like, oh yeah
this is my size so I could wear this.
And then you said, oh what's the brand? I9
Bing. And I said Anini Bing.
Jesus! And then he
looked at me and goes, wait. Wait.
How much did that cost? And then Hayley's
like, oh and tried to do this
whole like protect the sisterhood
thing and I saw her seeing that look in the eyes before.
I was like, Fletch is like, we'll Google it.
You just found the exact one.
Jesus Christ.
I've just messaged her.
I have just seen how much that Anine Bing hoodie cost.
And she said, yeah, designer, baby.
Good morning to you as well.
It is not a good morning.
It is not a good morning. It is not a good morning.
Wow.
So we want to know who you share clothes with.
Rhys, good morning.
How's it going?
Good.
Who do you share clothes with?
I share with my bandmates sometimes
because we play quite a lot of gigs,
but you can only have so much for wardrobe,
so it's quite handy to be able to share clothes with your mates.
Wow.
What kind of band are you?
Oh, man, we're like modern alternative rock.
Yeah.
Can I tell you what?
Thanks so much for listening to ZM.
Like a bit of Hoobastank.
Oh, my God, I love Hoobastank.
Oh, my God.
What?
You're on the real world.
The moment you hear a bit of alternative rock,
oh, so you're sort of similar to Hoobastank.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding, obviously.
Are you all the same size?
Well, some of us.
I'd probably be the largest, but then all the other boys
are mostly the same size.
Sometimes, yeah.
So when you wear it, it's more of a fit.
Maybe like a crop, a little crop top.
A crop, oh, yeah, maybe.
You know,
like an ice-cold shirt on me,
might be loose on my bed.
Yeah, cute, Rhys.
It's about all those
different looks
you just need to go for.
Yeah, Rhys has actually
just emailed through his band.
I've got a little demo here.
Oh my God, Rhys,
let's rock.
Oh, yeah.
Love this, love this.
Is this Rhys singing?
Yeah, here he goes.
I'm not a perfect person.
Oh, Rhys, we love your band.
We're the first I've ever gotten to.
Yes, Rhys.
Yes, Rhys.
Love it.
Rhys, thank you so much.
Crystal, no, keep it going.
Oh, you want to keep it going?
Keep it going.
Crystal, who do you clothes share with?
Hey, I share clothes with my 13-year-old daughter.
Oh, wow.
Keep it a tight.
Yeah, I know.
Keep it a tight, Crystal.
No, hang on.
But she also shares my shoes.
Oh, wow.
See, that's if you can, yeah, you're getting shoes.
We're both same size shoes.
Yeah, saving money.
It's so good. I'm the same size shoe as my mum as well. And we just, like, share, yeah, you're getting shoes. We've got the same size shoes. Yeah, saving money. It's so good.
I'm the same size shoe as my mum as well.
And we just like dive, share, dive on into the wardrobe.
Yeah, I don't want her to dive on into my wardrobe though
because I've got like Jordan in there like investments
and I come out and she's wearing my shoes
and I'm like, can you not wear my shoes?
Wow.
Amazing.
Crystal, thank you.
Some messages.
Are you still messaging your wife about the hoodie?
Yes.
I said, that is far too expensive to be wearing around the house
because she's just been wearing it around the house.
Are you kidding me?
I said, it needs to be put in a frame.
She said, I can't believe you looked up how much it cost.
I said, I didn't.
I said, you had a new hoodie and it fit me.
And then I said, a noni bling and Hayley's eyes lit up
and then Fletch Googled it.
Don't put this on me.
We're all in this.
We're all in this. We're all in this.
You dobbed her in.
You dobbed her in.
You Googled the price.
You dobbed her in with your eyes.
Sade, I'm so sorry.
But the moment I hear a Neen Bing, I go, ooh, ooh.
Because I don't want to spend that much money on a hoodie.
Well, so there could just be an AS Carla hoodie with a screen print.
That is exactly right!
Welcome to the world of a Neen Bing.
Who is a mean bing?
It's a basic hoodie.
It's a basic hoodie.
That's why I was like.
It's not, though, because she walks past and all of the ladies go,
ooh, a mean bing.
We could have got an AS colour hoodie,
plopped down to that place in the mall and said,
can you screen pin a mean bing on it?
Yeah, 100%.
Hey, hashtag a Ning Bing.
Wait.

Some messages in.
Who do you share clothes with?
My friends and I
used to buy the same clothes
but different colours
and swap because
we were too poor
to buy more than one.
It's a good idea.
Really good.
My husband buys
bourgeois clothes
so when he's clearing out
his old clothes
I make him show me first
in case I want them.
I've scored trackies,
hoodies and t-shirts.
I also sometimes ask if he's still wearing these things if I want them.
Why is it the husband's doing all the shopping?
It's good that you're wearing them after he wants them
because you don't want the boob holes, the boob stretch.
Oh, my God.
Aaron has absolutely said this to me before.
I'm like, I'm just going to rock this t-shirt.
He's like, can you make sure that you stretch it out?
I was like, stretch it out?
You're bigger than me.
He's like, no, the boobs.
Strap down the nungs.
I tell you what, same-sex couples. You're bigger than me. He's like, no, with the boobs. Strap down the nungs. Yeah.
I tell you what, same-sex couples,
we're hearing from same-sex couples.
I hadn't even considered it.
If you were in a same-sex relationship,
would you share socks and undies?
No.
Because that's a big one that we're getting.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, you do key pieces.
Key pieces.
Jackets.
Statement pieces.
I need bang hoodies.
Yeah.
Clay. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Aneen Bing hoodies. Yeah.
Have I even admitted this on air?
That I own 52 Barbie dolls?
Yes.
Yes.
Okay, good, good, good.
Because you broke Karen Walker's Barbie sunglasses.
Yes.
And yeah, that was her Barbie gate.
Do you think Karen Walker would wear... Aneen Bing.
Aneen Bing?
1,000%. Karen Walker would wear Karen Walker. Well, Vaughn's just found out his wife's got another... She's got another Aneen Bing. Aneen Bing. 1,000%.
Karen Walker would wear Karen Walker.
Well, Vaughn's just found out his wife's got another...
She's got another Aneen Bing.
She's got this one that says Bing on it.
I never made the connection.
It's an eagle.
It's a crew top.
She's in trouble.
That is like a classic Aneen Bing.
I know it is because I've seen other people wearing it,
but I figured it must have been from farmers.
So many people are wearing it.
Yeah.
Because it's cool, man.
I'm spending all weekends
psychologically convincing
Sade,
a Neen Bing's done.
No, no, no, no.
You simply won't.
It's a done thing.
It's part of our DNA.
I'll get to Monday,
I'll be like,
where are your Neen Bing hoodies?
And she'll be like,
I put them in the clothing bin
and the Neen Bing's done
and I'll be like,
I've overdone it.
I've overdone it.
Pull it back, pull it back,
pull it back.
Pull it back, pull it back.
Anyway, I'm very excited about this
and have been for many, many months
because the Barbie film,
the Barbie film is coming out.
Greta Gerwig is directing.
Wait, Greta Gerwig from?
Ladybug.
Ladybug.
Ladybug.
And she did Little Women as well?
Yes.
Trey Feminist.
Now this movie,
the photo stills came out yesterday
showing Ryan Gosling as Ken.
So it's Margot Robbie as Barbie.
Yep.
And then Ryan Gosling as Ken is outrageous.
So he's got, and I mean, my Ken's always brunette, but we won't hurt him for this.
So he's rocking, like, white blonde hair.
Yep.
A denim vest.
A, like, California orange tan,
and some strong abdominal muscles.
He's got no business.
41.
41.
He's 41.
God damn.
No, he's an absolute 10.
Yeah.
That's what he is.
He is.
So people are getting very excited and thinking like,
oh, this is going to be so much fun.
But then you're like, Greta Gerwig.
No, she wouldn't do a movie that is like.
Because it's not a kid's movie, right? It's not a kid's movie. So people are like, Greta Gerwig. No, she wouldn't do a movie that is like... Because it's not a
kids movie, right? It's not a kids movie, so people
are like, what is it? And then in the background
the house is bright Barbie pink.
It's got to be the Barbie Fodder Funhouse.
And have they also cast the girl
from Sex Education who looks like
Margot Robbie?
That's what I heard. She looks so much
like Margot Robbie.
And then there were all these rumours that it's not like a Barbie movie,
but it could be a thriller or some kind of like.
But then Barbie is owned by Mattel.
Mattel aren't going to let the brand be used in any way that's detrimental to.
Because Barbie's still a super popular kids toy.
Insanely so.
Yeah.
Are your girls into Barbie?
August is deep into Barbie.
Loves Barbie.
Loves Barbie.
Does she want 52 old ones with their hair shaved off?
Why would Ryan Gosling do a lame
like family movie?
He wouldn't.
And Greta Gerwig's not going to do
some movie about poppy kind of
Yeah.
Did I say Margot Robbie wouldn't do
Margot Robbie wouldn't do it either?
I know.
It's bizarre.
We're baffled.
And then we were talking about this yesterday because we were all going,
Ryan Gosling.
And then Carween has heard a rumour.
Yeah.
So there's a rumour going around which was apparently heard at the film
festival, the one that was just.
Cans.
Because you didn't know if you had to say cans or cans.
Yeah, I didn't.
I think you say cans, right? Like cans of
corn. It's creamed corn.
What is a can festival?
Cans. No, it's cans.
Oh, no, I'm thinking of when they do the
What is Cans Festival.
Yeah, different festival.
Your admission is a spaghetti, yeah.
Do we have a double pass to the Cans Festival?
Can.
Can. Can.
It's Can.
Yeah, no, it's Can.
That's what I said though.
Like shuck a can.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
I'm not going to say it again.
There's rumours out of
that film festival.
Which one?
The one that you've
just been talking about.
Can.
Is it the Waddy's Cairns
or the Can?
Waddy's Cairns, yeah.
That there might be
multiple actors
playing Ken and Barbie.
Which would be why they cast the girl that looks like her.
Emma Mackey.
Although the rumour isn't that she would be playing Barbie as well.
Could be Barbie's sister.
Yeah.
Does Barbie have a sister?
Yes, she does.
Stacey.
Kelly.
No, Kelly.
Kelly was the little sister.
Yeah.
Who was the baby baby.
So is it a thriller then?
Or multiple versions?
Yeah, multiverse kind of thing.
Stacey, yeah.
It was weird to see those photos.
Oh, hey, like, I don't know.
Odd.
Hang on.
What?
Hang on.
Hang on.
I'm just listening to how to say Khan.
Canes.
Canes.
Oh, no, that's not right.
Oh, no, no, no, sorry.
It's actually telling me how to pronounce canes as in walking canes.
You've got to put two Ns.
I left out the second N.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Well, despite, this is based on Americans,
but let's just make a general, it's the world, the people.
Not that America really represents humanity very well.
But despite people spending more time than ever on self-care,
because it's a thing, right?
We hear about self-care,
self-care Fridays,
self-care Mondays,
self-care, self-care,
going for a walk, self-care,
having a drink, self-care.
Wellness.
Wellness.
Despite people spending more time
and more money on wellness
than ever before,
according to this study,
people only feel relaxed
for about 40 minutes per day.
Is that when you're napping?
That's not good.
So obviously that's taking consciousness out of it.
So you sleep.
We hope you're relaxed.
But that's when you feel like,
hmm.
Is it because,
like you might do all the self-care stuff,
you might go to yoga, or go for a walk?
Yoga stresses me out.
Totally.
Oh, my God.
So slow.
Speed it up.
Do you know, this Patrick Gower thing that was on this week about drinking,
I think that's my relaxant.
That's your 40 minutes?
That's my relaxant.
That's why I have a drink most days.
Yeah.
Yeah, right.
I'm not like an obnoxious drunk.
There's no like, I mean, probably my own health may be affected, but society wise, I'm not
affecting society with my drinking.
Yeah.
It's your wine down.
I think I would, I don't like smoking anything, but I can see why people might smoke marijuana
to relax at the end of life.
They've got a really stressful job.
It kind of takes it away a little bit.
But 40 minutes is not much.
40 minutes is nothing.
Is it because we're self-sabotaging with like phones and screens?
Yeah, we're just constantly stimulated.
We're busy.
We're busier than ever.
We're more stressed than ever.
We're working harder than ever.
We never have downtime.
What about the people that do take time out to relax,
but that's the most stressful
part of their day? Like my dad, the minute he sits
still, he said when his body stops
his mind races. Yes, that's me. And he thinks
of everything he should be doing not sitting
down. And get guilt. Yeah. And he
can't sit down and relax.
His relaxing is doing things.
Yes. Yeah. I can't relate to that being
a lazy person.
I went to I'll say it, my therapist said, this is me.
I need stimulated relaxation.
I said that to you the other day that you're, but all this,
yeah, okay, Fletcher's making dirty gestures.
No, I was just looking at my watch.
I mean, it's part of it.
All the senses, right?
You want to constantly be smelling things you like
and feeling things you like and tasting things you like
and seeing things you like.
Yes.
I totally get that.
So when like high stress levels, living a very busy life,
and they're like, meditate.
You've got to take time to just breathe and meditate.
And I'm like, I'm fuming because time's ticking on.
I know, I can't do that either.
Even reading.
Do you get that with reading as well? A little bit nowadays because I guess I'm not doing anything. I know, I can't do that either. Even reading, do you get that with reading as well?
A little bit nowadays
because I guess I'm computer stimulated.
But she said her suggestion,
and this is probably good advice for everyone,
if you're there and you can't relax,
do it with stimulants.
So having something heavy in your hand
or having-
Like balls.
Yeah, or a weighted wheat bag across your stomach
or your chest or something.
Because it's like stimulating.
You can feel something.
Have music playing.
Have the door open so wind is flowing.
Have one of those boards that babies have
where something crinkles and something clicks.
Basically.
Because you are relaxed,
but you're being stimulated.
Now we've done a full circle
to having a baby stimulation board.
It's thrown out.
Boom.
It's trying to get their neurons to connect.
And for us, it's just nice and relaxing and touching things.
I like it.
Play it.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
It's the final rankings.
Well, it's a Friday tradition, Friday rankings.
We take a thing and we will argue.
Predominantly, something we can eat or ingest.
Yes, it has been.
It has been that long, mostly.
We'll mix it up soon, but usually on a Friday,
we're getting ready for some big weekend eating,
so we get all excited.
Yum, yum, yum.
Today, we're going to rank favourite cocktails.
I've got so many.
I've got to put forward a cocktail that's not, like, sweet
or easy to drink, because they're $1818 sometimes and I'll just be like this.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
And then I'm like, oh, no, I drank it all.
You hate it when you're out for cocktails with friends
and then theirs turn up and they're in some big whopping glass
and you've just ordered some sort of gin fizz that's like an egg cup.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Yes. You should have gone for that big blue fishbow egg cup. Oh my God. Yes.
You should have gone for that big blue fishbowl thing.
Yeah, with the coconut.
Mojito.
Surely that's got to be number one, right?
It's a favourite in summer.
If someone serves me a mojito, I'm always happy.
I'm happy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They can also go bad too,
depending on where you're having this mojito.
Yeah, sometimes they put lemons in
because they can't get their hands on some limes.
Do you see a cocktail too cheap
and you're like, hmm?
Yeah, but it's still got alcohol in it, doesn't it?
Yeah, but as you say,
it's cordial.
It's not actually lemon or lime.
Totally.
I think on behalf of all of the
basic party gals out there,
and I represent them well, I think.
Don't you say espresso martini.
I'm going to hit you.
Espresso martini.
Oh, yes.
Come on.
I love an espresso martini when the time is right.
I love a martini.
The good thing about like a really dirty martini
is that it isn't something you can like.
But espresso martini is the problem.
I can go, gone.
But like I want one of those martinis
that's got that tang that I'm just like,
little bit, little bit.
Take it easy, slow down.
You're thinking of when you get a margarita
at a Mexican dinner.
Margarita's top three for me.
You're saying I drink a margarita slow?
Yeah, because it's ice. You have to.
No, I go like this.
And then I look at Sade and I'm like, can I have some of yours?
I'm shocking.
Sometimes I'll get like a 400ml beer and I'll just be like, can I have some of yours? Yeah. I'm shocking. I can't. Anything that, sometimes I'll get like a 400 mil beer at the pub, and I'll just be like,
blah, blah, blah.
Man, I'm thirsty.
Blah, blah, blah.
Put it down.
I'm like, oh shit, I've drunk it all.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
You're out of control.
And everybody else has had two sips.
I'm like, sorry, I forgot I wasn't drinking water.
I'm going to go margarita for me is number one.
Really?
Margarita.
I love a margarita.
Tequila's a beautiful drink.
Margarita, number one.
Number two, espresso Martinez.
So basic. And then number three, I Tequila's a beautiful drink. Margarita, number one. Number two, espresso martinis.
So basic.
And then number three, I would go maybe a whiskey sour.
I'll go whiskey sour as number one because I love a whiskey sour.
I think I love putting egg white into my cocktails because it's a bit of protein.
Bit of a hit of protein.
Yeah.
I had a cocktail.
Because it's egg white and it's whisked up, isn't it? Yeah, or aquafaba.
Because when I did a cocktail night, I put the whole egg in,
and it was like the yolk and the white, and it was a disaster.
I had to chuck it out.
This is thick.
This is really thick.
You're drinking a scrambled egg.
Yeah, it's an espresso martini scrambled egg.
A scrambled martini.
I would go mojito, margarita, espresso martini.
Those would be my three.
We're pretty similar here.
We're pretty similar here.
Yeah, I would go whiskey sour, old-fashioned Manhattan.
All whiskey.
Very whiskey-based.
I love my whiskeys.
We've been getting into the Negronis recently, like very bitter.
Yeah. Again, I very bitter. Yeah.
Again, I just go, hmm.
It feels wrong to be doing this in the wake of Paddy Gower's booze documentary.
Yeah, but the thing with cocktails is you can only really have a couple.
I used to love a pina colada, but boy, they're thick.
They taste like they've got two eggs in them.
I was planning on having a couple of cocktails tonight,
but then I found out my wife's spent all of our money on a NeNe Bling's.
A NeNe Bling.
On a sweatshirt range this week.
A NeNe Bling.
A NeNe Bling.
Janine Bling.
Janine Bling.
Janine Bling.
Are we saying then that the margarita is reign supreme because it's in all of our...
Oh, it's not in yours.
But you love a mug.
You got two votes whiskey sour.
I'd rather a mug went up than an espresso martini.
It's too basic.
Okay. And they just rush them out now.
Bars because they know a gaggle of women are about to come in and be like,
What is it, girls?
What is it, girls?
Espresso martinis all round?
18,000 espresso martinis, please.
Well, that's why they have them on tap now.
Exactly.
I don't like the idea of a...
I want it made or I want it made in front of me.
I want to see someone shake the hell out of it.
This was 100% you and me and Sade at your 40th.
Are we doing this?
I'm supposed to be in my teens?
I'm supposed to be in my teens?
Are we?
Are we?
I'm supposed to be in my teens?
You ain't nothing but a dog.
Play it.
I get it.
Play.
ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Play.
ZM.
Friday.
Flashback. Flashback. All right, don't bring the mood down, Vaughn.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
We're up.
We're up with Sarah.
The mood's up.
The mood's up.
The mood is up.
Now, I want to preface this to the listener by saying that Vaughn just asked me if he
can press the buttons and be in control of the radio station.
Do it.
Hayley and I both said why and that means this song must be
have the potential to be terrible.
1986
this song came out. It reached number
12 on the New Zealand charts
when it
was released. Initially
initially this song was supposed
to be recorded by... Look at Ross Boss!
Is he mad?
Watch this.
When it was initially proposed,
this song was supposed
to be recorded by Toto,
who bought us Africa.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then there was...
Just do Africa.
That's a great song.
We've done that one.
Legal conflicts
between the producers
of the movie
and the band's lawyer
prevented it from happening.
And then Jefferson Starship was supposed to do it.
And that didn't happen.
Who bought us White Rabbit.
Yeah.
This song was especially written for the movie
that it became the title song for.
And it's in the sequel that is now released,
ladies and gentlemen,
written for the original Top Gun movie, performed by Kenny Loggins.
No!
From 1986.
It's Danger Zone.
This is so cliche sports, this song.
I love it.
No, I'm on board.
I'm on board.
Crank it.
It's your Friday flashback danger zone. ZM. Bye. Thank you. Bye. It's Kenny Loggins.
It's your Friday flashback danger zone.
Hi.
On ZM.
Great feedback.
Great feedback.
Is there?
Love it, love it, love it.
Someone said, yes, just out of the shower, drying myself, in time to the music,
curtains wide open, walkway behind my house, teaming with people, getting a treat.
Yes.
That is top-down energy.
What just happened?
I blacked out, I'm shirtless and covered in baby oil,
and now I have a mullet and a sweet little moustache.
My dad used to play this song before he went ute racing
as he lined up at the grid.
This was his life.
Ute racing?
Yeah.
Fun.
Somebody else said, we were just talking about the Jimny,
the Suzuki Jimny having some BDE,
and someone said, yeah, I'm driving a my Suzuki Jimny now.
I feel like I'm a fighter pilot.
Serious BDE.
It's MDE at best, I reckon.
It's medium.
It's medium. It's medium.
Medium D energy in a Suzuki Jimny.
Right.
Someone said, talk to me, goose.
Someone said, my five and seven-year-olds even give this the approval.
Oh.
Giving a real big head bang.
It's a classic.
It's a classic.
We're making everyone happy today.
It's a classic.
I'm doing 50 Ks an hour in my Honda Jazz and I feel like a total badass.
It's a great driving song.
All right, we stand by you, Vaughn.
Good pick.
Anna, do you have something to say when you said that this was going to be the worst one
and that we were ready to hang up on the song?
I, I, yes, sorry.
All right, sorry.
It's a particular corner in the room that you might want to take a seat in.
Now, what a beautiful transition.
Oh, what do we do that for?
No, we've gone from the high highs of flying a F-35.
No, but it's good.
You know, it's stimulating.
It's good to cry.
Well, do you know what I want to say?
It's the full moon that's making everyone seem funky this week.
I know.
Remember, we were in a funk earlier in the week
and then we went, it's that strawberry moon.
Why is it strawberry?
It's because it's been dipped.
Something about time to harvest the strawberries
or something like strawberries.
Right.
It's Northern Hemisphere moon stuff.
Oh, right.
Okay.
It's moon stuff.
Well, we were connecting this morning
because I had a bit of a blubber yesterday.
What made you blubber yesterday?
As the nation knows, I've got a really bad gut. Yeah. because I had a bit of a blubber yesterday. What made you blubber yesterday?
As the nation knows, I've got really bad guts.
Yeah.
And if they didn't, they do now.
If they didn't hear me coming from a mile off, yes.
But I had an appointment at the gastroenterologist,
which was very, very hard to get,
and I turned up there and they had no record of my appointment.
And I had a very busy day and I was quite stressed.
And then I got stuck in traffic heading back home
before I had to go back into town
for my gig last night.
And I got on the phone
just to sort of rant at Aaron.
And he answered,
because he's away.
He said,
hey.
And I said,
they didn't have any record of my appointment.
I just absolutely fell apart
in the car in Takapuna.
The people were looking going,
someone's died in her life. But no, the doctor
didn't look up my bum yesterday and I was all ready for it.
I got it all prepped. I hate it when my bum's
prepped for a look up. I got it prepped
and when I go next week it's not going to be prepped.
Yeah. Fletch?
You'd be with me
on that I'd imagine. Just disappointed you get it all sparkly, shiny, fresh.
I was going to say something absolutely terrible, but I shall not.
I shall not.
Are they giving you another appointment?
Yes, they are, but I was ready yesterday.
Yes.
And this is the thing.
I was overwhelmed.
I was a little bit busy at the moment.
I cried.
Very overwhelming.
And then, Carween, you had a cry yesterday.
Yeah, I did.
What made you cry yesterday?
So, there's this band in the UK
called The Wanted.
Correct.
Yes.
Recently, one of the members
unfortunately passed away.
That's right.
Tom Parker.
He had a, what was wrong?
Brain, an inoperable brain tumor.
Yeah.
Yeah, very sad.
And he leaves behind two kids.
And there was an article while I was doing prep last night
with his wife talking about how their little daughter
doesn't understand that he's passed away
and just thinks that he's on tour with the band.
Oh, okay, that's sad.
That's so sad.
It's really sad.
I'm biting the inside of my cheek very hard at that. Yes, well, that's sad. That's so sad. It's really sad. I had a really hard, I had a bite in the inside of my cheek,
very hard at that.
Yes, well, this is on the same week
where Vaughn has been crying
because he bought his kids a cat
and then they cried
and thus you cried.
And then, of course, that always makes me cry.
And then I watch that and I cry.
It's a cry.
Yeah.
Big cry energy this week.
Big cry energy.
Anna's crying.
Why are you crying?
Just everyone's crying. It's you crying? Just everyone's crying
and it's a little overwhelming.
You know when someone spews, I'm automatically
like, well, here we go.
It's the same with crying,
especially if it's like a male that's older
than me is crying and I'm looking and I'm like,
oh no. Oh my god, remember when we brought
that girl home and then the dad was like,
and then you cry. Oh my god, it's
terrible. Anyway, it's Cathartic Friday.
We're up from Highway to the Danger Zone
and now we want to like release.
So we want to know why did you cry this week?
And it can be big, it can be small.
We just want to know.
What brought you to tears?
0800 dials at M.
This could be quite depressing.
We will not laugh at you.
We will cry with you. All right, 0800 dials at M is the number be quite depressing. We will not laugh at you. We will cry with you.
Alright, 0800 dials at M is the number.
You can text as well, 9696.
We might laugh a little bit.
Why did you cry this week?
We want to know why you cried this week.
Oh, thank you.
It just seems like everybody's had a cry this week.
Have you had a cry?
No.
He doesn't cry.
He hasn't downloaded that update.
He doesn't have that programming.
That's why I've got a red bubble on me.
Yes.
It's waiting the update.
Carween cried this week.
He can connect to a printer, but he can't cry.
He can't cry.
Carween cried yesterday.
I cried yesterday.
I've cried this week.
Has Jared cried this week?
Did you cry, Jared?
No, I'm on the verge of tears now, though.
Yeah, beautiful.
Yeah, isn't there some stories coming in?
Oh my God, yes. I was expecting just like
some light-hearted stuff, but there's
some actual stories of like very intense
personal weeks. Why did you cry
this week? Some messages in.
Should we start with some messages in?
My in-laws are in town
and I cried when they told us they're staying an extra
night.
I cried because my partner drank my Fanta.
But when you want it, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
You really want it.
It was sitting on the table for an hour,
and I was thinking about it the whole time.
We had more in the fridge, but I still cried.
It's just that little thing that pushes you over the edge.
Yeah.
Someone cried because BTS announced they're going on a hiatus.
Oh, they are?
Because they're doing solo stuff?
Yeah, they're all doing individual stuff.
That's terrible.
Solo stuff is never as good as that.
I will present Harry Styles.
Harry Styles.
The exception to that rule.
The only exception.
Have you heard Freddie Mercury's solo gear?
Paul joins us.
Paul, why did you cry this week?
Well, I cried because I was watching that Netflix show called Heartstop.
Have you heard of it, guys?
Oh, I've watched it, Paul.
It's very heartwarming.
No, it's heartstopping.
It's heartwarming.
It warms it so much that it stops. But you cried? Oh, it's heart-stopping. It's heartwarming. What's the idea? It warms it, and then it warms it so much that it stops.
But you cried?
Oh, absolutely.
Right at the end, it just got me in the feels.
No, spoilers.
Teens, Charlie and Nick discover their unlikely friendship
might be something more as they navigate school and young love.
Yeah, it's like a comic.
And it's got Olivia What's-Her-Face in it.
Oh, that's how she likes her food.
Olivia Coleman.
Olivia Coleman.
You're doing Academy Award winner Olivia What's-Her-Face in it. Oh, that's how she likes her food. Olivia Coleman. Olivia Coleman. You're doing Academy Award winner Olivia What's-Her-Face.
Oh, my God.
One of the most phenomenal actors of our time.
One of the most versatile actors currently acting.
Olivia What's-Her-Face.
It's great.
It's a great show.
Definitely recommend that.
Okay, if you feel like a cry, heart stopper.
It's just very heartwarming, isn't it, Paul?
Oh, absolutely.
And guess what?
It's been renewed for season two and three,
which I'm absolutely over.
I'm worried, though, Paul,
because it's based on a book.
And when they have a book
and they branch out sometimes,
that's good.
Paul, how hard did you cry?
Oh, I blubbered.
Flooded.
Not enough?
Like you in the car, Hayley.
Like you in the car.
Just as well I was at home alone,
else I would have looked like a complete idiot.
Yeah, you just let it out.
No, you look beautiful.
Men cry too, and we shouldn't be ashamed of it.
Yeah, absolutely.
Paul, thank you so much for sharing.
Let's go to Avril.
Avril, why did you cry this week?
Oh, my goodness.
I've got my favourite, this little teacup I use at work, and I dropped it and smashed it. No, Avril. Avril, why did you cry this week? Oh my goodness. I've got my favourite, this little teacup
I use at work and I dropped it and smashed
it because I was crazy. No, Avril.
But it wasn't the teacup. I had about
five people run up to
me and all help me. They took stuff off me.
They came and picked up the pizza.
Someone turned up with a vacuum like after about
30 seconds and they
all carried my stuff back to my
desk and I just
burst out crying
it was so sweet
so you were sad
and you were overwhelmed
with cat timer
you were just like
flooded with help
it's nice it restores
your faith in humanity
I'm lucky
I work in one of
the best places ever
and there's beautiful
people there
it was just
so sweet
and caring
because I get to hear
stories like this every day.
What workplace?
Obviously not this workplace.
No, TVNZ.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Avril, thank you for sharing.
Let's go to Sam.
Sam, why did you cry this week?
I will preface this by saying I'm pregnant.
So I feel like I'm the one.
Fair enough.
I cried because I ordered a mystery bag online
and it didn't have what I wanted.
Producer Jared and I recently discussed mystery bags because they were for sale at Armageddon.
Why not just buy what you want rather than spending money on a mystery?
I can't not know what the mystery is, so I just had to spend the money.
How much did this mystery bag cost?
It was only $50, so it wasn't too bad. What was
the thing that you wanted to be in there?
I really wanted some merino
and for my children
and I got muslin.
I don't know if you understand that.
Very funny.
You want merino. You want a nice warm
fibre and you give them something
strained cheese.
You can make beautiful homemade feta
though. You should.
Sam, thank you for sharing. Let's take some messages
to finish up. What made you cry this week?
Oh my god, there are so many. The sex machine is just like
I think this would be a great regular
Friday segment if it's not too much of a downer.
I absolutely adore it. Maybe Monday and it's a
why did you cry at the weekend? What made you cry over the weekend?
Because then we can put it behind us
and get on with the week.
Yeah, a cleansing,
a purging and a cleansing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
My brother made the Moldy All Blacks squad.
When it was named,
it was just this massive universal
Congrats.
crying, I'm homesick
and I accidentally started watching
a Facebook video compilation of dads
walking their daughters down the aisle.
Oh, my God.
I literally just got to chill out.
No, no, no, no.
Yeah, me too.
Take the pulse.
Relax.
Breathe.
It's so beautiful.
Oh, my God.
Vaughn, you are going to be a mess whenever.
Yeah, no, no.
Let's not even talk about it.
We can't even get into it.
I can't get into it now.
He's so glassy-eyed.
I'm going to have to drug you up, I think.
I joined up to a golf club and hit an elderly lady off the tee on my second time and cried.
What?
Why did you hit an elderly lady?
With the ball.
You've got to yell four, but maybe she didn't hear it.
And then you felt so bad, you cried.
No word on the elderly lady's state of crying.
I cried because I'm not getting tickets to go to Conan Gray's New Zealand show this year.
That's all right.
Probably listen to one of his sad songs.
He'll die fighting the bulrog and then come back as Conan White.
What the?
And then he'll be a better wizard.
Lord of the Rings joke, baby!
So bad.
Oh, my God.
Hayley and I would like to apologise.
So we're actually having a really nice segment.
Yeah!
My friend had a baby and my gift knitted shawl isn't finished,
so I was trying to knit at the shawl and I was crying
and I made it very hard to concentrate.
I'm a primary school teacher.
I'm in the midst of assessment and reports.
I was supposed to have a day's release,
but my reliever text in sick.
That's what I've heard.
Really hard to get relievers because they're all sick
and the teachers are all sick.
It's like just letting it rip wasn't the greatest plan
for a whole lot of industries in New Zealand.
But anyway, they texted and said,
I was holding it together until the photocopier wouldn't work.
Oh, my gosh.
And they just set me off and I couldn't stop.
They need the new, we've just got new printers.
What are our new printers?
I still haven't seen them.
These are beautiful.
I still haven't seen them.
This new printing is lovely.
Can you hear this?
What, are you trying to pay for the printer?
Is the company signing some sort of deal?
We've got to speak positively about the printer?

You guys have heard of snuff boxes?
Mm-hmm.
The little decorative pill or snuff boxes.
Yes. So I've heard of snuff boxes. Yes.
So I've heard of snuff, and I just assumed it was cocaine.
I thought it was tobacco.
Yeah.
Why did you?
I always thought it was tobacco.
It's powdered tobacco.
Yeah, because of like old Western movies and stuff.
So there's two types of snuff.
You can do the chewy tobacco that you put between your lip and your gum,
and you leave it in there and you're ping,
and it rots your gums and teeth and everything and causes a horrendous array of mouth diseases.
I've tried it.
It's so yuck.
What is it?
When I first went to Edinburgh when I was marching,
we were hanging out with the Norwegian guard
and because they stand guard and they're not allowed to move
and they're smokers,
they would just have it in their mouth the whole time.
Ew, yuck. Getting nicotine released and they were like, do you want to try it? I was like smokers, they would just have it in their mouth the whole time. Ew, yuck.
Getting like nicotine release and they were like, do you want to try?
I was like, yeah.
And I just put it in and it was like instant dizziness.
Horrendous.
Yuck.
So bad.
Filthy.
So what's the fact of the day about?
That it's tobacco.
Well, it's tobacco and it's powdered.
The first version of it was powdered and you would literally pervert it up.
It was the technique first used by Native Americans.
Christopher Columbus saw them sniffing a mysterious powder
and he was like, what have you got going on there?
And then took it back to Europe and introduced it to Europe
as well as tobacco.
And yeah, you would dry out the leaves, dry, dry, dry,
and then like powder them up.
You would powder them up and then you would carry it around a little box.
Today's fact of the bidet.
The bidet.
The fact of the bidet.
Is Napoleon, you know,
the little French Europe conquering Napoleon.
Yeah.
Snorted 3.2 kgs of tobacco a month.
He had a snuff chest.
Not a box.
He wouldn't have like a little box box He'd keep a little box on him
But he'd be constantly
Filling it up from this chest
When he was like on the war march
Goodness
Well he didn't have time
To roll a ciggy did he
Nah
Oh wouldn't that be
You thinking that he wasn't
He was busy to be rolling durries
He wasn't going anywhere
In like a super quick
But you'd think he'd have
Someone to roll a dart for him
Yeah
If he's Napoleon
I think he'd probably
Napoleon banging darts.
I think he'd probably go Taylor.
Yeah, it'd be Tayles.
It'd be Tayles.
He's got the money.
He's got the money.
He's conquering countries.
He's just taking all of their wealth and doing whatever he wants with it.
Also, can I interrupt?
I know we're short on time, but Producer Jared, how tall are you?
How tall is Producer Jared?
Five.
No, in metres.
Four. Four metres, in metres. Four.

Oh.
Oh, so tall.
Moustache.
Moustache.
He had the moustache at one stage as well.
I need a tricorn.
Yeah, you need a tricorn.
And I reckon if Napoleon was around these days,
he'd be vaping.
Oh, he'd be vaping.
He'd be on the grape vape.
He'd be on the grape vape.
What's that?
Uh-oh, we're about to be invaded. How do you know? Can't you He'd be on the grape vape. He'd be on the grape vape. What's that? Uh-oh, we're about to be invaded.
How do you know?
Can't you smell it?
Napoleon's grape vape.
Yes, green toffee apple.
That's the smell of the French invasion.
Coming our way.
So today's fact of the day is Napoleon would snort 3.2 cages of tobacco a month.

Well a leaked memorandum
from the evil headquarters of Facebook.
Mentor.
This is inside a volcano, isn't it?
Yes.
Yeah, the lid goes...
That's where Mark Zuckerberg lives as well, inside the volcano.
Well, a leaked memo from Facebook has hinted at some changes that are coming.
And you may have noticed in your Facebook app on your phone, a lot of reels, like just in your feed.
Love a reel.
Well, and that's the idea.
Apparently the ongoing success of TikTok is hitting them hard
and they would now like to take on TikTok more.
And the memo says that they are going to put a lot more content
that you don't follow in your feed.
Oh, no, I don't like that.
I don't like that already.
I don't like that already.
Because that's happening on Instagram, and I really don't like that
because Instagram is supposed to be your curated space of who you follow.
And you'll just see stuff pop up.
Because you follow this person, you're like, get out.
Also, while Messenger and Facebook are currently used as separate apps,
the memo suggests that they will reunite them.
No.
Which would be the worst.
This is smart, though, because truly everyone's like,
I'm done with Facebook, but I still use Messenger.
I know.
I'm the same.
Although we have like an apartment Facebook group,
and we've got the podcast family group.
Yeah, we've got some good groups.
Which is the only thing that's keeping me on Facebook
because I could easily do away with the app.
Ditch the feed.
Right.
Ditch the feed.
But then Messenger, we use Messenger for work and just life.
Yeah.
All the time.
So yeah, apparently the...
I don't know if they would still keep the Messenger app,
but they want to make it one app so that, again,
they've got you and got everybody.
You have to be on Facebook.
Yeah.
And then also prioritising even more reels in your feed they've got you and got everybody. You have to be on Facebook. Yeah.
And then also prioritising even more reels in your feed and content that you don't follow. You didn't choose.
So, I don't know.
How do we feel about that?
They've got us, don't they?
They've wrapped us around their little finger.
Just get rid of it then, guys.
Should we delete?
Should we delete?
How will we group chat, everybody?
You will find us.
It's text.
Go back to iMessage.
Go back to iMessage.
Gosh, they're a bit of fun.
Oh, yeah, Jared brings up a very good point.
What about all those things we've done where it's just like log in via Facebook?
Oh, yeah.
We are signing up for something.
Oh, my God, so many.
That's right.
Does that just grab your email and your password?
Yes.
Phone number, yeah. So can you just use your email and your password Yes Phone number yeah
So can you just use
Your email and your password
No you can't
So if you've logged in
Via Facebook
And then you try to just
Log in
Using the email
You've got for Facebook
No don't worry
Man they get you away
I know
I've got so many of those
And like when you try to
When you try to share
A login for something
And you've logged in
Via Facebook
So then they have to
Log into your Facebook
Okay so they've got us
haven't they?
They've got us
Smart
That's why they live
in a volcano
Smart
With a flood lid
I thought they were smart
to live in a volcano
I wonder what the rates are
On a volcano?
Yeah
Through the roof
Get it?
Through the roof?
No
Because volcanoes explode
from the top
Oh through the top
I really thought
that was more overt
I'm going to work on my comedy.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Silly little pole.
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. Well little pole, silly little pole.
Well, today's silly little pole, actually, we discussed this yesterday on the show, didn't we?
Came up organically, didn't we?
What were we talking about?
And you said, that'll tie me over.
And then I said, is it tied me over?
Yeah, and then we said, yes, it's tied me over.
And then you found a definition arguing it was tie me over.
And then I found one that said, no, it's tied
because it was a seafarer's expression.
So we decided because we found conflicting arguments on the internet,
we could never be friends again.
We screamed at each other.
Yeah.
Hit a little bit.
Yeah, we hit.
We backed into the corners.
We both started to try to rally as many people to our cause as possible
by using radicalised extremist views. We took over the grounds. We both started to try to rally as many people to our cause as possible by using radicalised extremist views.
We took over the grounds of the parliament,
set fire to the playground, and I tell you what.
And we're going to storm the Capitol.
Yeah.
No, we took it to the people, and for our silly little poll,
is the saying, tie me over or tied me over.
And I want to say we almost don't really have an answer.
60% tied me over.
Yeah. But 40% tied me over. Yeah.
But 40% tie me over.
Tie me over.
Which I get it because it's kind of like hold you.
Well, 60% is enough to form a parliament,
so we've got to, that's how democracy works, baby.
Okay, let's see.
Michaela says, surely it's not tied me over.
It is.
Tied over is the correct expression.
Taylor says, I've never heard of either of these, so this doesn't matter to me. Thank you for letting us know. Fence it is. Tied over is the correct expression. Taylor says, I've never heard of either of these, so this doesn't matter to me.
Thank you for letting us know.
Fence sitters.
Jeez.
Pick a team already.
Erica says, I always thought it was tie me over, but maybe I've just been proven wrong.
We've got someone there willing to admit that what they've thought all along isn't right.
And she's willing to change her mind.
That is to be admired.
We need to bottle whatever Eric is on.
God.
And send it out.
Rather than being like, it's time over you.
Luke wants to add another one altogether.
I always thought it was tire me over.
No, Luke, you're 100% wrong.
You're so wrong, Luke.
The conflicting sides can both agree on is that Luke's team is wrong.
Sarah says,
tide me over is like,
give me a snack to get through dinner.
Tie me over is an entirely different type of snack.
Oh, Sarah.
Oh, Sarah.
Sarah.
Sassy, sexy Sarah coming in with a little bit of.
Holy moly.
Yeah, here you go.
Jessica says,
it's from sailing. The tide carries
boats over obstacles and rocks.
Yeah, that was the definition we found online
that supported the tide me over
argument. But it just goes to show, we don't
know. Half the time we don't know what we're saying.
I love origins of sailing. Yeah, I'm just delving into
more articles online and people
both for and against either one.
Could we have both?
We could compromise.
That would be a civil thing to do.
Oh, that's such a weak way.
It's so weak.
Continue to use what you've been using.
No, it's tied me over.
And everyone, the 40% of people that said tie,
you have to change.
All right.
