Starting point is 00:00:43 Oh, so you feel extra old. So now, do you remember at 21st when they were like parents' friends there? I know, I was always a bit like, this is weird. Well, it's a celebration, right? Like the parents are celebrating that they're offsprings and they want people to celebrate with them. The parents just don't want to be outnumbered by 21-year-olds, 20-year-olds.

Starting point is 00:01:43 What for? Me and my two friends got kicked out. Why? It was a marching girl. So that's when she was, you know, one of the younger girls in the team. And we turned up. Not only did we take to the stage and sing her a waiata, three pakeha. Well, I'm Māori, but you're not Māori enough for them to know.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Yeah. And we BYO'd wine to this pub and we kept going into the bathroom and pouring it. I don't know why. We could have ordered it. 28? That's like an 18 year old. I was't know why. We could have ordered it. 28? That's like an 18-year-old. I was the youngest. My friends were in their 30s. One of them 39.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Wow. We got kicked out. We got asked to leave. But is it because you get a little bit excited? Yeah, we were down for our shoes. We were having good fun. And the marching girls all got together. We were like, let's just take this wine.

Starting point is 00:05:25 They're getting high on sounds, man. Whoa. They're getting high on sounds. We're going to get high on the show next. It sounds like some kind of current affairs scare story. Yeah, yeah, it totally is. That would be on 7.5. It totally is.
Starting point is 00:05:35 In fact, I kind of remember the last time a sound-based fear-mongering about your kids getting high. Do you remember that? Farrier did a story. Oh, that's right. Yeah. He made us listen to the sound and asked if it was getting high. Oh, are we going to get high next? Yeah, we're going to get high. Do you remember that? Farrier did a story. Oh, that's right. Made us listen to the sound and asked if it was getting high. Are we going to get high next? Yeah, we're going to get high.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Naturally. It's six o'clock in the damn morning. This is also Christian friendly. Is it really? Well, yeah, I guess so. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Binaural beats is something you may not have heard of,
Starting point is 00:06:12 but an international study published in the Drug and Alcohol Review, which had 30,000 responses from 22 different countries, identifies people using binaural beats to help relax or fall asleep. 72% of people who had heard of them and used them. 72% of them used to relax or fall asleep. 35% as a mood changer. And 12% of them said they used them to have the same effects as psychedelic drugs. Now those that said they had the same effect as psychedelic drugs had done psychedelic drugs. There were people using them for sleep and relaxing who felt no psychedelic effects. Couldn't compare it to any hallucinogenics
Starting point is 00:06:47 because they'd never taken them. This is a certain kind of beat or sound. Yes. How do you spell that? Binaural. Binaural. As in oral. Okay, so B-I-N-A-U-R-A-L.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Binaural. Indeed. Binaural. What is a binaural sound? I don't know. Is it like a hum? It's a sound created by the brain when it's exposed to different tones in each ear that differ in frequency.
Starting point is 00:07:13 The third tone, which apparently you add, the frequency difference between the two is known as the binaural beat. So you can hum at the same, or your your brain can just imagine the tone in the middle. And then these people are getting high or falling asleep to it. You can use it to relax. I guess it's the same premise of white noise. Yeah, is it like having a white noise where people go to sleep with rain or waves? I listen to Tibetan bowls because I do. The singing bowl, the ringing. Because they have that kind of like real dozy tone.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Is that a binaural? I wonder if that's binaural. Okay. I don't know. Because if they put two on, one different side, one on each side and dong, dong. Wong, wong, wong, wong, wong. Oh, that would actually be quite nice to go to sleep to. It's so nice to go to sleep to.
Starting point is 00:08:00 I mean, sometimes I'll be listening to a Tibetan bowl playlist and you'll just be drifting off and it'll change tracks and you'll get a big boom and you're like, oh no. You can hear they've got chips in that bowl. Yeah, they have. They've hit it a bit hard there, mate. I've just found nine hours of Tibetan bowl healing sounds.
Starting point is 00:08:19 And wind chimes. Well, you don't like wind chimes. You're very anti those. No, you need to get more to the deeper bowls. Beth Dutton on an episode of Yellowstone recently shot a set of wind chimes with a shotgun and it was the most relatable content. Move it forward a bit because I like the deep tones.
Starting point is 00:08:34 There's no bowls yet. Oh. So you think that's a binaural beat? Binaural beat is two different, a different tone in each ear, so you have to have headphones or good stereo surround To get it to work I'm going to pull up some binaural
Starting point is 00:08:49 Binaural Audio now Christopher Nolan movies It just sounds like the air con you did Outside my apartment I'm getting high, man. Oh, hey, hey. What?
Starting point is 00:09:08 What? Hot, hot day Friday. Holy shit. But, yeah. I reckon after a while, that'd be nice. Because it is, it's just white noise, right? Yeah, and then if you put the pitch in the middle, if you're like... No, this isn't working for me.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Buzzing out? Not really. You buzzed man. Just sounds like a wind tunnel. I can see how it could be relaxing though. Yeah. At the right volume. I feel a little relaxed all of a sudden.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Yeah, I feel a little bit like. But not like high. No, more like sedated. But if you were in a floating, a float pod. Oh yeah. Get this on some speakers in a float pod. I never want to go in one of those. Don't you?
Starting point is 00:10:06 The mind races. I could, exactly. You've done one, haven't you? I've done a few of them. I really like them. But being cocooned
Starting point is 00:10:13 naked in an eggshell, no thank you. I think I'd just remember all the horrible things I've done in my life and it would make me feel really bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Yeah. Alright, I'm stopping that. Oh, see that's... See, I actually do feel a little bit Clearer Relaxed Whack-a-doo
Starting point is 00:10:29 Whack-a-doo Dating Dating, dating, dating I haven't been on a date for 11 years But do you not say like date night? In your relationship Yeah, but I mean like dating to meet someone new or like someone fresh.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Sounds like someone needs a date night. It does sound like I need a date night. Do you want to meet someone fresh? You're both actors. Do that thing that they did on Modern Family with Phil Dunphy where he turns up and they pretend they don't know each other. Oh, a little role player. Yeah, yeah. Who are you waiting for? Someone that's
Starting point is 00:11:03 not coming. What about you? I'm not waiting for anybody. Ew. You could pretend to be spies at a conference. Oh, yeah. A spy conference. I could be a lonely, a lonely cleaner. Oh, I'm not waiting for anyone.
Starting point is 00:11:17 I'm just a cleaner. Aaron will come in and say. Yeah, he's a cowboy. I need a bit of help cleaning up my life. All right, I'll give you a bit of a scrub down, mate. Okay, this is fun. It's my weekend, sort of. Absolutely yuck.
Starting point is 00:11:34 It's my weekend, sort of. That's sexy. Things are going to get hot in the Courtesy Sproul household this weekend. Anyway, dating up. People are still dating. And apparently, according to a 2022 survey conducted by Bumble, the dating app, 34% of users are more likely to go on a sober date now than they were before the pandemic. It's changed.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Is it because they've got long COVID and they can't? The alcohol kind of knocks them a little bit. No, it's not've got long COVID and they can't? The alcohol kind of knocks them a little bit. No, it's not because of long COVID. They're saying that it's mostly because I guess the pandemic has given them time to reflect on what they really want in life. And 62% of people say that they reckon they'd form a more genuine connection on an alcohol-free date. Yeah, I guess. Because then you're not old sloppy Sally, you know what I mean? Well, you don't have that extra courage that a couple of drinks give you.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Yeah, yeah, exactly. You sort of actually have to work to form a connection. There'll be plenty of time to get to know sober them. Later, for example. Boring them. Yeah, and that's what, apparently, I mean, we know this, this is the Gen Z people. That are drinking less.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Yeah, young people dating. They're drinking 20% less alcohol per capita than millennials at their age than like I was when I was that age. That's good. I mean, overall, that's good. Overall, it's very good. You're certainly making up for the people that are drinking. I can't have these poor alcohol companies going out of business.
Starting point is 00:13:08 I wouldn't stand for it. I can't have, you know, Lion Nathan employees being laid off where they're in the centre. I couldn't sleep at night. It's been an honour to step up in this way. In this pandemic. As a millennial. Right. To sort of cover the bases. I this pandemic, yeah. As a millennial. Right.
Starting point is 00:13:25 To sort of, yeah, cover the bases. I like to hop out these little craft beer places. It's a burden, isn't it? Yeah, little craft beer, Heineken's. Yeah, Corona's. Any of them, they all need our help in these times. With Gen Z turning their back on these stalwart industries. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Well, the other reason that they're not drinking is because we've talked about this before, that people are not just going out for dinner, for dates. They're doing like breakfast dates, activity based dates, yoga dates, sports dates. You see, I could do a breakfast date and then that would be a bit weird if they were like, oh, maybe
Starting point is 00:13:58 mimosa? You're going to be weird to order a mimosa at breakfast? No, I said maybe that would be acceptable. Maybe, yeah. Or a breakfast beer. But it would be weird if you were like, oh, let's go for a hike in the bush and they're walking along like, crack, crack, crack a can of Jim Beam or something.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Also don't go on a first date for a walk in the bush. You don't know this person. Don't go in the bush with them. Don't go in an area like, this is the thing about the bush. You can be 20 metres away from someone And yelling and you won't hear them The trees are very absorbent
Starting point is 00:14:28 They do, they soak it up Super absorbent Also you don't want to see someone You don't want to be Your first impression You're all sweaty and like puffing Like Because you can't get up a hill
Starting point is 00:14:38 Like they're not going to want a second date Should we just sit on that little seat And just take in the view a little bit It's just so beautiful. From the sophisticated ZM Think Tank, this is the top six.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Yes, I do want to kiss her. I'm not saving that for off you. I would like to kiss Miley Cyrus. You would like to. It would be a lot of
Starting point is 00:14:59 fun. It would be a pleasure. The top six. What are you Googling? I was seeing if Miley Cyrus' album is available on iHeartRadio. I feel like I would like to engage some company synergy
Starting point is 00:15:11 and tell people they could listen to it on iHeartRadio where you can also listen to ZM. You can take the show anywhere. Anywhere you want. If you've got a car that doesn't get us. Wherever you go. Hey, use your phone. We will find you.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Oh, yeah, we're there. And we will get in your ear holes. Today's Screaming Now. I'm listening to the radio on my phone. You would never guess that management told us to seamlessly mention iHeartRadio. And I told them I'd take care of it. And here I am taking care of business. Taking care of Bill's nails
Starting point is 00:15:48 dun-inch, dun-inch Alright, seamless. Ripping bongs inside. Ripping bongs in the lounge. Science Science and research published in the medical journal JAMA. Network Open reveals smoking cannabis from a
Starting point is 00:16:04 bong at home, inside, window shut, generates four times as much secondhand smoke as ciggies. Wow. Oh, dear. Now, I've done research into what is a bong. Okay. Bong, also known as a water pipe, is a little situation you put your marijuana in, a bike valve, and then the bike valve goes into the Mountain Dew bottle.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Yeah. And there's some water in there. And then you, on the top. Yeah. Yeah. Right, yeah. Oh, my God. I mean, you're from Hamilton.
Starting point is 00:16:41 You know this. We get it. We get it. We get it. Four times as much secondhand smoke. Did we need this kind of study? We know it's bad, right? I know. I'm so sorry to scientists.
Starting point is 00:16:57 But, you know, they went to... So how long were they at university for? And now they're looking at the impacts of ripping a bong. Yeah. So the reason they did it is another study showed that 27% of young adults believe secondhand cannabis smoke is far safer than secondhand
Starting point is 00:17:12 cigarette smoke, which is not true. Is that because you'd say, well it's just growing in the backyard or in the hydroponics unit. Without all the petrol fuel. Whereas ciggies are full of all the chemicals. But it's not about that. It's about the fine particulate matter level, which increased 28-fold.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Okay, maybe we did need this study. I think we did. Yeah. Good on you, scientists. But smoking, basically, when you break it down, smoking inside is bad for you. And other people who would get the secondhand smoke, we probably could have worked it ourselves.
Starting point is 00:17:45 So top six other health breakthroughs that I've just decided don't need to study, I'll just tell you. Okay. Number six on the list, lollies are not a good breakfast. What? I mean, they're young, and they're going to get you absolutely hum. They're going to get you punching a sugar high. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:00 But on an empty stomach, you're going to come crashing down. I love a fruit burst for Brekkie. You're getting your fruits. Your bursts. Your bursts. All about that burst in the morning. I know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Damn it. Number five on the list of the top six other health breakthroughs I'm willing to stake my name on. Yeah. If you don't drink water, you'll die. You will. Yeah, fair call. You've got to keep drinking water.
Starting point is 00:18:23 You will die from not drinking water before you'll die from not eating food. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think you can go without food for... Ages. A week and a bit. Ten days, I think I remember. But water's like three days. People would argue you can go longer without food.
Starting point is 00:18:39 You know, people do those extreme fasts and don't eat for like a month. I did the 40-hour famine. Oh, wow. And World Vision Are you cheating? You cheated. You had barley sugars and just juice.
Starting point is 00:18:49 No, I didn't. You ate custard squares and then just in shame. Snap. This guy. When you were a kid, you think he's your friend
Starting point is 00:18:58 and he'll stick up for you. Absolutely. And now World Vision knows that I cheated. Great. Did you send them the money? Absolutely. They don't care. They don't care if you had a custard Great. Did you send them the money? Absolutely. They don't care.
Starting point is 00:19:05 They don't care if you had a custard slice. No, they want the money. Number four on the list of the top six other health breakthroughs. We can't live without the sun, but the sun is also actively trying to kill us. This is great to know. Yeah. Well, there was just that study yesterday about the melanoma rates in New Zealand. Massive.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Up. Yeah. Up. In 2020, we had the worst per capita, right? Yeah, worst in the world. You've got to get a mole map, guys. You've got to get a mole map. What do you reckon that one is?
Starting point is 00:19:31 Do you reckon that's bad? That's cancer. You don't need to get a mole map. You just need to regularly go to a doctor that specialises in it, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't pay for the mole map. I got a mole map and I was like, ouch. And then you stand there and you have to do all these poses
Starting point is 00:19:44 and they take up-cl close photos of your naked body. Yeah. Where are these photos stored? What happens if somebody like from Russia hacks in and they leak out your fanny? Well, look out for my fanny pics. There's pics of my fanny coming at you and the small mole that's right next to it.
Starting point is 00:20:01 And some Russian skin doctor's like, that one needs to be checked. She needs to get that one cut off. There is one right beside Fanny, very dangerous looking mole. Yeah, let's show me other ones. Oh yes, one on each butt cheek.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Number three on the list of the top six other health breakthroughs I'm willing to put to the study committee Potato chips aren't as good for you as pre-potato chips No The humble spud It's so yum Yeah
Starting point is 00:20:34 The spud's a superfood Potato chips, I mean, they are yum Are potatoes a superfood? They are Are they? Well, yeah Well, yeah, because you can make chips, mashed potatoes That's super in that way Yeah, super Gratin They are. Are they? Well, yeah. Well, yeah, because you can make chips, mashed potatoes.
Starting point is 00:20:46 That'd be super in that way. Yeah, super. Gratin. Oh, gratin. I love a gratin. I remember when Matt Damon lived on potatoes grown in poos on Mars. And everyone was like, is this even a possibility? And someone looked into it and they're like, yeah, you could actually.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Potatoes have pretty much got everything you need. Yeah. Oh, awesome. Number two on the list of the top six other health breakthroughs. Brushing your teeth's a good idea. It really is. That's a good one. Yeah. I mean, for health, but also for keeping the teeth
Starting point is 00:21:14 and for your breath in the meantime. That's good. And number one on the list of the top six other health breakthroughs. I don't even think this one needs to go to a committee. Cigarettes are still bad for you. Yeah, absolutely. Are we sure? Yes. Proven. Pretty surearettes are still bad for you. Yeah, absolutely. Are we sure? Yes.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Proven. Pretty sure. It's good to know. Pretty and proven. That is today's top six. Well, a story came to our attention this morning. The world record, Guinness world record for eating nuggets. Chicken nuggies.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Yeah. 19 in 60 seconds. And that just to me doesn't feel like that many. It was 19, right? Not nine. 19 nuggets in 60 seconds. And when you said nine, I was like absolutely about to get a record here.
Starting point is 00:21:58 She managed to eat 352 grams worth of golden nugget goodness. It's always these small women. And it's little petite women too. 352 grams worth of golden nugget goodness with hmm? Why is it it's always these small women and that's the thing she's a petite thing as well. Yeah like who's that Kiwi Nala
Starting point is 00:22:11 she held the previous record of 298 grams worth of nudge in the same amount of time. So we've lost a Kiwi's lost the world record to a Brit.
Starting point is 00:22:21 She's about to get it back don't worry another Kiwi's about to get it back. Leah Shookpeaver who won holds 27 eating related Guinness world record. To a Brit. Well, she's about to get it back. Don't worry. Another Kiwi's about to get it back. Leah Shookpeaver, who won, holds 27 eating-related Guinness world records. Some of those include downing the most jammed donuts in three minutes, the most amount of lasagna eaten in 30 seconds, and the fastest time to eat a cucumber. Oh, no. You'd always, you'd think it would be the big units, eh?
Starting point is 00:22:39 That could get these records. No, well, I remember watching those hot dog eating competitions. The key to being able to do it is that your stomach's got stretched. And if you have a big belly and you've got a layer of fat around it, it restricts how much your belly can stretch. Oh, okay. But if you're a slim gym, it can stretch bigger. So that's why it is always people that can, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:02 that win these eating competitions are always slim gyms. Ridiculous. I mean, I'm somewhat of a slim gym, but I do have a belly. So I don't know my advantage here. I did just look up on MyFitnessPal. 10 chicken McNuggets is 420 calories. Okay. I have before me 20 chicken nuggets.
Starting point is 00:23:23 So that's 840 calories. I would eat 840 calories over the course of probably two or three meals. Yeah. So you did say literally this morning, oh, I could do that. I could. I still reckon I can absolutely knock on the door off. You're not even going to be knocking 10. I don't think you're even going to finish a box, to be honest. I've got 10 nuggies and three trays of sweet and sour sauce.
Starting point is 00:23:51 This is the body of... It's very similar to my body. It's linked to her Instagram. This is the body of the competitive eating competition. She's like, she's ripped. She's got abs. She's got abs. That is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Just checking my abs itch. It's exactly the same. So you could do this. Yeah, I absolutely could do this. That is ridiculous. Just checking my abs search. It's exactly the same. So you could do this. Yeah, I absolutely could do this. Okay, well. I'm going to do it. You made this brazen comment this morning. And so Vaughn and I jumped on Uber Eats.
Starting point is 00:24:15 And we now have 20 in front of you. Are you going to pre-dip? Are you going to use dip? Are you allowed to use dip? Because that technically. It's going to be too dry. It's going to be too dry. That's a lubric to use dip? Are you allowed to use dip? Because that technically... It's too dry. It's going to be too dry. That's a lubricant.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I don't even... Look at my water bottle. It's empty. Jared, would you please grab a glass of water if that's okay? Thank you. Thanks, Jared. Because they do have water in the eating competitions. They go, choo-choo, water.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Water, water, choo-choo. So are we allowing water? But that's time. Am I allowed dip? You have a... I mean, we're not running an official world record, so I think, you know, we can allow. You're allowed dip.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Okay, you're allowed dip and water. But if you, like, smash them real quick, then we need to look into this. Yeah. Okay. As a go-ahead. This girl also holds the record for how many nuggets she ate in three minutes. How many is that?
Starting point is 00:24:59 She ate 775 grams of the... Thank you, Jared. Oh, my God, that's ridiculous. It's three quarters of a kg. It's banana. Why'd you have a glass of water then? I don't know. I'm nervous.
Starting point is 00:25:09 You're filling up. Shoot! And did you see my big hunky smoothie this morning? That's fresh. I only had that like 45 minutes ago. She's going to have a chunny. Get the bin ready. Get the bin ready.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Okay. All right. Okay. 60 seconds. Hayley, are you ready? I'm going to ding for every nugget. Okay. I'm just going to go two. And then go two. Okay. All right. Okay. 60 seconds. Hayley, are you ready? I'm going to ding for every nugget. Okay. I'm going to go two.
Starting point is 00:25:27 And then go two. Okay. All right. The world record attempt for the most nuggets in 60 seconds. Your time starts now. Oh, it's hard. I can't do it. Oh, it's really hard.
Starting point is 00:25:42 Okay. Is that... You've done... She's done one. Two. That's hard. Okay, is that... You've done... She's done one. Two. That's two. Okay, two more dips into the sauce there. Half a nug.
Starting point is 00:25:53 The other one there. But she hasn't swallowed. She's still got probably two in the mouth. Yeah, that's why I was reluctant to ding the first time. I'll go... I'll ding there for a third. Okay, I think the fourth is cleared. No, that's the fourth
Starting point is 00:26:05 Is that the fourth? It's just going in there Even though it's not swallowed The fourth's still in there 30 seconds Oh no really? On the I'll ding on the fourth
Starting point is 00:26:18 That was the fifth The fifth is not finished I'll ding on the fifth After the next swallow 15 seconds I'm going to allow the fifth It's gone But we I'll ding on the fifth after the next swallow. 15 seconds. I'm going to allow the fifth. It's gone, but we're starting on the sixth.
Starting point is 00:26:30 The sixth. The sixth is in the mouth. Not swallowed. Seven seconds. Five seconds. Six. Seven's begun. Oh, my God. Six full.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Six full. You did six. I did six. Was she even chewing? I haven't seen a video of her doing it. Was she just swallowing nugs whole? I reckon the way to do it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Let me just finish my seventh nugget. I reckon the way to do it. There's no time to chew. I knew at the moment I chewed my first one that that wasn't going to happen. But you can't swallow a nugget whole. So she's got. Okay. She obviously has practice. Is she going got, okay, she obviously has practice.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Is she going in and water, in and water? No, no, she just is literally chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, conveyor belting them in. Right. And she must have this ability to chew and swallow at the same time because I'm a chew, stop, swallow, begin chewing again guy, but she's chewing and swallowing. Those people that can play a trumpet and circular breathe,
Starting point is 00:27:22 they never run out of breath. I have been humbled by the nuggets. I genuinely thought that 19 didn't sound like that much, but I got six. And I have been humbled. Do we need to cancel? Do we need to cancel the Guinness World Record guy? Is he on his way?
Starting point is 00:27:39 Yeah, we do. I think we might need to cancel that. He's leaving Ireland now. Don't tell it. Cancel his flight. Razine, paint it yourself. Let's go. Giving you the chance this week and next week,

I just chose a mustard the other day. Might I suggest to you Razine's Pizza? Pizza. Oh, thank you. Razine Pizza, it's like a really nice sort of muddy mustard. That's what we're putting on our walls.

And you can visit your local Resene Colour Shop for paints, colours, and expert advice. All right, let's see if we can give away some cash. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. This is such a disaster. This story is an honest nightmare. A woman who had already had a very complicated pregnancy.
Starting point is 00:29:46 A lot of things, you know, she was a very stressful pregnancy for her. And then at 28 weeks, she started having contractions. That's not long enough. Oh, wow. Okay, yeah. They managed to pause the contractions for a month. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:00 And, you know, so the baby had more time to grow. So then what's that, 32 weeks? Still stressful. Yeah. Because what's the full amount? 40. 40. 40 to 41.
Starting point is 00:30:11 38 to 40. Oh, 38 to 41. Because how early was Indy, your first? 34 weeks. That's right, yeah. That was pretty terrifying as a first, but, I mean, the minute we were in Niku and... Oh, they do a great job. Scubus and all those. Those are amazing facilities.
Starting point is 00:30:25 And then you see people who have been dealing with babies born far earlier than 34 weeks, and you're like, holy shit, we're lucky. We're all good, yeah. Well, at 32 weeks, they couldn't stop it. The baby was coming. And she was in the birthing suite, but apparently because this wasn't the time
Starting point is 00:30:41 she was supposed to be having a baby, the hospital was like a nightmare. And it was so, so busy. And then so she was in the room starting her labour process when in walks her ex and his new partner who have also just gone into labour. So she's there like, what? Are they like sharing a room and there's like a curtain down the middle?
Starting point is 00:31:02 So because it's so busy, she has to share a room in the birthing suite and I've just put a little divider curtain between them. With her ex. With her ex and his new wife, I beg your pardon. Right. Anyway, so she's having this already stressful experience with her partner and then in walks the ex.
Starting point is 00:31:21 They hop in the bed next to them and they start having their birth. She said it was absolutely horrendous. It was so awkward. At first she thought it was a joke, like someone was pulling a prank on her while she's having this birth. Like happy April Fools. Here's your ex.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Then she said that the whole time that she was birthing, she felt she couldn't talk because it wasn't a happy split. Between her and the ex, it was like, oh my God, it's so awkward. You've got to put that behind you. Enough time that she's remarried. Absolutely. Both of them.
Starting point is 00:31:52 There wasn't any kind of animosity, but they weren't mates, put it that way. She said that the birth was horrendous. They couldn't talk the whole time. She said Cody and I, her husband, sat there whispering through the birth. It was definitely not a fairy tale. Because everybody, if you've been in hospital, you know those like curtain sheet things are not soundproof.
Starting point is 00:32:15 They're like a shower curtain. They don't do anything. In fact, they amplify sound. Yeah, they do. They circulate. Some weird destruction of the respected rule of physics. They somehow make things louder. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Luckily, she delivered a healthy baby. Everything's fine. But she said it was just the worst experience ever, not because of this baby being early, but because her ex was literally right next door and hearing her, his new partner, giving birth at the same time. Wow. What a time for an ex to show up.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I love it. I love it. An absolute nightmare. I mean, it's great when it doesn't happen to you. It's great to witness these things because they're so awkward. Oh, we love to read about it. And I want to hear more about this. If this has ever happened to you, it doesn't have to be necessarily that you gave birth
Starting point is 00:32:56 next to your ex, but when did your ex turn up at just the worst possible time? Like you run into an ex and maybe you're with your new partner. Maybe you're with your new partner or maybe you run into your ex at a job interview and you're both going for the same job. Or they're interviewing you and you didn't know. As long as you've got to go second so you can be like okay so I saw one of the applicants out there before that
Starting point is 00:33:17 guy's a cheating scumbag. Or maybe you're in hospital for something really embarrassing and then he comes in with like a broken arm or something and you're there because you've got something stuck up your bum. I thought you were going to say he's coming in as the radiologist, the specialist that's going to see why you've put that there. Why you've put something up your bum.
Starting point is 00:33:35 All right, well, 0800DARLS.M, we want to take your calls. When did your ex turn up at the worst possible time? When did you run into your ex at the worst possible time? Yeah, we're talking about when your ex turned up and you really just wish they didn't. Great case. A woman was giving birth and then in the middle of labour
Starting point is 00:33:54 her ex and his new wife walks in and they're giving birth as well and they had to birth right next to each other with a thin curtain between them. Sharing a room. Very awkward. So we asked you when your ex turned up at the worst time um this one's not this i i met with i ran into my ex at countdown on his wedding day we had a little talk and then he went off to his wedding that doesn't sound like
Starting point is 00:34:18 that doesn't sound like the worst time not the worst time it is that's how that sounds like that whoever's messaging is still in love with him. Yeah, unless your trolley was loaded up with ice cream, chocolate, and like booze. Dillies. And those little dillies you get beside the condoms. He's off to his wedding. You've got a pregnancy test, a couple of bottles of wine, and it's dillies. You're going to drain your sorrows with the one true love.
Starting point is 00:34:40 He's also got away, and he's off to get married. Unless he was always in love with them, and they were the one that broke up with him. I need to know the backstory there. We need to know more causes to why this was bad.
Starting point is 00:34:50 immediately right now message in to 9696 and fill out the rest of that story for us. I saw my ex in the holding cells after we both got arrested. That's really cute.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Was there bars between you? Where did they both get arrested? Like at the Wellington protest? Maybe. Or New Year's? I don't know. Again, can you message in and tell us what you did? Arrest situation.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah. Ryan's called. Ryan, when did you run into an ex at the worst possible time? I had just got engaged and was out for a dinner. And my ex-wife was at a table next to us. And you're like, cheers to the new engagement. Yeah, you know, they bring out the dessert with the happy engagement on it.
Starting point is 00:35:33 And there's my ex-wife. Did you acknowledge each other or talk? We acknowledged each other extremely briefly. Oh, right. And who was she with? Was she with a new partner? No, no, she was just with a group of friends. Oh, okay. That's worse. Oh, right. And who was she with? Was she with a new partner? No, no. She was just with a group of friends.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Oh, okay. That's worse. That's worse. Oh, that's worse. That's worse. That's way worse. Oh, dear. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Brilliant. Oh, right. We all just feel that awkwardness. Thanks. You called some more messages in. Of where you ran into your ex. My ex was my waiter for my first date that I was on. Since they broke up?
Starting point is 00:36:07 Yeah. Oh, why would you go to the restaurant where you know he works there? Or maybe he was new working there and she didn't know. This is a text from Small Town, New Zealand. Four of the five people that I've had entanglements with
Starting point is 00:36:18 were all in town at the same time in the same bar while I was with my new partner in that bar also. I got nervous and faked being sick so we could go home. Oh my gosh. Yeah, I would have done the same. Having lived in Wellington, you know, which is famous for everyone knows
Starting point is 00:36:33 everyone and everyone slept with everyone. I wonder if it's that situation where you're in a bar, you go, yep, in that one, in that one. I think that one. Yeah! Looks familiar. That one, that one, that one. My current partner and I were out for a walk and she was crying about her life to me and around the corner came my ex.
Starting point is 00:36:51 It was just awkward because she was crying and you had to be like, oh, this is my ex-partner. The first date I went on with after breaking up with my ex was at a bar. He was at the bar I went on with this new date. Hadn't seen my ex in weeks prior to that. The worst thing was he came to the table and said hi
Starting point is 00:37:09 and introduced himself to my date as my ex. Don't do that. And on the way out of the bar, he patted him on the back and said, good luck with this one, mate. Yes, good stuff. Oh, my God. So petty. I was out with my partner and baby down at the harbour.
Starting point is 00:37:25 We were going for a lovely walk and we ran into my ex. She was squatting for a piss smashed out of her face. So was that an early evening walk and she'd been at a bloody bottomless brunch? Squatting. In my mind, I immediately thought it was the Wellington Harbourfront. And I'm like, where would you do that? Just on the rocks. It's so open.
Starting point is 00:37:46 It's so open. It's so open. Or just in Frank Kitts. It was Auckland Harbour in my mind. Oh, right. Okay. Also, there were a lot of restaurants in the Auckland Harbour. Yeah, you'd probably go and hide behind that.
Starting point is 00:37:55 You'd have a Mims off the wharf. Hold on to the railing. Jesus, no, that's dangerous. For a girl. Now, do we have a follow-up on the supermarket? Oh, wait a minute. I'll just refresh. Let her refresh, please, because God, I need to know.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Text situation. Otherwise, message him back. I must know. No. No. They're still in love with him, aren't they? They're still in love. That's why.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Running into the supermarket or how the people got arrested. Neither of those have had a follow-up. We can only assume. We need more details, people. I'm going to say it was a B&E. Yeah. It's the final rankings. We do this every Friday.
Starting point is 00:38:35 We rank something, anything, and debate it fiercely. Today, we will be debating for final rankings our favourite pasta shapes. The ultimate pasta shape. Now I'm just bringing up some pasta shapes so we can kind of get on the same page. We've discluded things like ravioli.
Starting point is 00:38:55 Because it's the filling. The filling will differ. Yeah. So you've got your sort of like twists. I won't use specifically the Italian names. You've got your bows, your twists, I won't use specifically the Italian names. You've got your bows, your twists, your different various spaghettis. Penne. Penne's in there.
Starting point is 00:39:10 The shells. I don't like the shells. What are the shells? Conch. Oh, because conch is like a word for shell. Aye. Concheghele. Concheghele.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Well, I'll kick off. Okay, what are your top three? I'm going to go in third. I'm going to go the farfelle, which'll kick off. Okay, what are your top three? I'm going to go in third. I'm going to go the farfale, which is the bows. Okay, bows, that's good. I love a bow. Yeah. I love a bow.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Then I'm going to go basically penne. Because the sauce gets in the tube, and that's the point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's where it's at. That's the good stuff. But I don't like that the tube's not cut straight. It's on an angle. Don't like that. Well, you might like that. Penne is on the point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's where it's at. That's the good stuff. But I don't like that the tube's not cut straight. It's on an angle. Don't like that.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Well, you might like the penne is on the angle, but a rigatone is cut straight, like just a little straw. So I'm going to go... What's your number one then? I'm going bows, then penne. Number one, no argument, pappardelle. The thick spaghetti.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Like a fettuccine spaghetti. No, no, no. Thicker. Papadele's like I'd give it an inch. Because my... It's a ribbon. It's a ribbon. It's a ribbon of pasta. Papadele with like a slow beef cheek ragu.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Doused in parmigiano. Delicioso. And I won't hear another word about it. I'm not the hugest. I don't eat a lot of pasta, but I love a mac and cheese. So to me, that's got to be. Are you kidding me? It's got to be either elbows or fettuccine.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Macaroni elbows are so trash. It's trash. That they use them as decorations on children's candy carts. Picture frames. There's no other pasta that they use as a decoration on a cart. Even, but fairly, the ribbon, the bow tie, which looks very decorative, doesn't get used as decoration. I think that's what we call versatile.
Starting point is 00:40:52 No. When it can be used for kids' arts and crafts and eating. So your number one is macaroni. Yes. What's your number two? Fettuccine. The fettuccine pasta. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:04 I think a spaghetti. Like a creamy pasta. You loveettuccine pasta. Oh, yeah. Like a spaghetti. Like a creamy pasta. You love a creamy. I love a beefy. I'm a beefy tomatoey pasta. Yeah. I'll do a tomatoey chickeny pasta. You're saying?
Starting point is 00:41:14 But, you know, I love seafood. Yeah. But I can't do pasta and seafood. Can't do a pastry seafood. So what would be your top three pastas? Um, my top three is I'd probably go fettuccine Because I like the pappardelle Like the thick ribbony ones
Starting point is 00:41:32 But when I get a On It always goes Slap Yeah it is And it slaps Tomato sauce around my face Yeah okay
Starting point is 00:41:40 Yeah Number two I would go The penne Or like the Rigatone, like the tube, because I love when stuff accidentally slips inside. Yeah, and you put it in and you're like, oh, my God, there's more juice in here than I thought.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Yeah, yeah. Like you've got a bit of tomato. Or mince juice. Yeah, mince in there. And number one is dinosaur shapes. Wow. You child. I am looking at a chart, though. They do taste better. I am looking at a chart, though.
Starting point is 00:42:05 They do taste better. I am looking at a chart. And they've got alphabet as a choice. That's right. Do they still do alphabet segedian soups and stuff? Alphabet soups. I don't know. Yeah, surely.
Starting point is 00:42:16 Surely. One of the pleasures of the 90s. Yeah. Well, again, we don't agree. Oh, I see that they do animal shapes now. I can get a toidel. Ah, a toidel. A little toidel shaped.
Starting point is 00:42:30 I'm going to drop a curveball in here. Are we doing gnocchi? No. No. That's disgusting. Because it's potato pasta. No, that's yum. Do you say gnocchi's disgusting?
Starting point is 00:42:39 It's dins and yum. Yeah, no. You're disgusting. It's a stodgy. It's a stodgy. It's stodgy. Yeah, it's good. You're eating bad gnocchi. It's the good sort of stodgy. If it's stodgy, you've done it wrong. No. Yeah, no. You're disgusting. It's a stodgy. It's a stodgy. It's a stodgy. Yeah, it's good. You're eating bag gnocchi.
Starting point is 00:42:47 If it's stodgy, you've done it wrong. No. I like it. Now, did we, did anyone say lasagna? No, because lasagna's not really. Because it's only a single purpose. It's not clever. They haven't even cut it.
Starting point is 00:42:58 They haven't even used one of those cool serrated sort of rollers to create a cool shape. It's just egg and water. But look, if we're talking next week, best final rations of pastry. Oh, let's do pastries. Filo pastries next week.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Pastries, like type of pastry? Like shortcrust? Shortcrust, sweet. Oh no, I was thinking more like Danish pastries. Yeah, yeah, I was thinking more like Danish pastries. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Danes own the pastry business. Okay, so we didn't come to a conclusion? We did.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Papadeli wins. Okay. No way. No, no, no, no, because you're the only one that voted for us. No, Fettuccine wins because we both had Fettuccine in our top three. No, no, no, I think Penne because we both went, we liked the surprise inside. Yeah, we've gone Penne.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Penne, Fettuccine gets two. Penne is straightuccine gets two. Penne is... Basic bitches. Penne is... It says macaroni over here. Straight macaroni alba. Gosh. Well, we'll agree to disagree.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Penne fettuccine. Have you guys ever heard of Hamburger Helper? No. I'm making Hamburger Helper. What's Hamburger Helper? Hang on. You're making promises. You were supposed to make us...
Starting point is 00:44:01 A pulled pork mac and cheese. A pulled pork mac and cheese. I'll make you a pulled pork mac and cheese. How long have we waited? Two weeks now? Three weeks? Yeah, because you guys were always like, we can't have it mac and cheese. A pulled pork mac and cheese. I'll make you a pulled pork mac and cheese. How long have we waited? Two weeks now? Three weeks? Yeah, because you guys are always like, we can't have it on a Monday.
Starting point is 00:44:08 We're trying to start the week healthy. But then I don't have time to make it on a Thursday for a Friday. We need to pass the potluck. Big carb, big carb energy. Oh, and we'll go for a run the next day. Nah. So we'll say we will, but we absolutely will not. We're utterly in the dark here. We're swimming
Starting point is 00:44:29 in uncharted territories. Right, I'm looking at executive producer Anna is bringing in a parcel. Oh. I saw this in the mail room yesterday. Now you guys don't know. No, no, no idea. No idea?
Starting point is 00:44:47 I genuinely have no idea. It's April Fool's Day. I'm not up for any shenanigans. We've got a no shenanigans April Fool's Day policy now because we've been working in radio too long. Andy shenanigans. We're old. We're tired.
Starting point is 00:44:57 We're cynical. Jaden and cynical. All right. I've got you tearing into it. But in saying that, the queen is going to be on the phone just after 8 o'clock. Okay, it looks like some kind of 80s or 90s jacket. There's a note here. Hi, Fletch.
Starting point is 00:45:14 I heard you talking about how much you desperately wanted one of these throughout your childhood. No, that was me! That was me! That was me! Stoked to say I can make that dream a reality today, Fletch. No, that was Vaughn! When I saw this here in the United States, also, it's come from the...
Starting point is 00:45:30 It's come from America. Oh, my God. Charlotte Hornets jacket! It's come from America, yeah. No, it's me! When I saw this here in the States, I just had to get it for you. I hope you love it.
Starting point is 00:45:39 April Fools! A 90s NBA Charlotte Hornets jacket of your very own. I'm a huge fan of you. Dickhead, you don't even know who you're sending a jacket to. Vaughn and Hayley, thanks for all the laughs from Craig. Oh, sorry, Craig. Oh, Craig. No, Craig.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Oh. No, no. That's my dream, Craig. Oh, my God. No, Craig. Fletch, this is going to look cute on you. I have to take my headphones off to get through the... I'll tell you what's happening on the earpiece.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh, my God. No, no. That's my tree. It's even got the little pearl flap on the front. I remember these as a kid.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Dude. They look amazing. If you'd worn that to Muff today, you would have been absolutely pimping. It smells like a dead person. It smells like a secondhand shop. I'm coming over to sniff it. Okay. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:30 It smells like... Oh, my God. I can't believe Craig balls this up so poorly. Well, Craig says here clearly high-fletch. Craig... Is this of significance to you? Oh, you do not know how often... When I was a kid, all I wanted was a 90s starter jacket. It's all
Starting point is 00:46:45 I wanted. I don't really care what team it was. It had to be like one of the classic 90s teams. It had to be your Charlotte Hornets, your Orlando Magics, your Chicago Bulls. I look good in this though, right? You look so good in that. Craig has really outdone himself. Oh, in winter? Winter coming up, you're going to look so fly.
Starting point is 00:47:02 I am probably going to have to give it a wash. Yeah, give it a wash. Because you wanted one of these so bad as a kid, didn't you? Yeah. I wanted an NBA jacket. My parents were like, are you kidding? They were like, how much do these cost? And then when they went to like Bali or somewhere,
Starting point is 00:47:17 they said, well, they don't have them. It's too hot in Bali for a jacket. So they couldn't even bring me a fake one. I've got to say it, Vaughn, right now, you look so lame in your stupid plain grey t-shirt. I know. And Fletch, you look so cool. He's popping off in teal and purple.
Starting point is 00:47:32 That's so cool. It is a pretty good colour on you, though, because you are like a blue tone. I can put snacks in. I know. That's what I was always super jealous of. It was like a bum bag, but it was part of the jacket. I'm going to put my lip balm in there. The fit. I've got to say, the fit. It's a fit, man. It's a fit. Did you just put your Aesop
Starting point is 00:47:47 lip balm in the front pocket? I'm kind of angry but at the same time, the fit. It's an undeniable fit. Wow. It's an undeniable. It does look good on me, doesn't it? I think you wear it well. It's so good. You wear it very, very well. Are you going to wear it every time that you go over to Vaughan's house? Yes, I am.
Starting point is 00:48:04 I'm going to wear it every day to work. To rub it in your face. This is just like Mufti Day. Thank you, Craig from America. Thank you, Craig. I almost said the F word. Craig really poo-pooed this whole thing.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Oh, it's got a hood. What are you taking that for? I'm giving it to you. What a mistake from Craig, but what a beneficial... Craig didn't make a mistake. We just... Oh, did you? We made up the note.
Starting point is 00:48:32 It was sent for you. Is this April Fool's, is it? You've got fools. Not really. We would have done it any day. Now let me put on... Now he wants it. Now he wants it.
Starting point is 00:48:42 But I'm worried, mate. What if I don't... What if Fletch looked better in it? I did look good in it. He's a teal guy. Oh, my God, Fletch. I looked so good wants it. Now he wants it. But I'm worried, mate. What if I don't? What if Fletch looked better in it? I did look good in it. He's a teal guy. He's a teal guy. Oh, my God, Fletch. I looked so good in it.
Starting point is 00:48:49 I'll do a reveal. I'll turn around. One authentic reaction. Thank you. Okay. Okay. Now, this is the starter jacket Vaughn has always wanted since a kid. You looked so good in it.
Starting point is 00:48:57 I know. Thank you. I did. That's a bit of a problem. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, no. Oh, it's too short for him, isn't it? It's too short for him.
Starting point is 00:49:04 No, no, no. Look, it's covering his, oh. Oh, no. Oh, it's too short for him, isn't it? It's too short for him. No, no, no. Look, it's covering his bum, Craig. Yeah. Yeah. What up, dudes? Muff today. Gold point. Yeah, it looks good.
Starting point is 00:49:13 It looks bloody good on you. Oh, my God. Craig rules. Craig rules. Craig, I'm sorry for cursing you out before, Craig. I know you were so mean to Craig. I was so mean to Craig because he made such a basic mistake. How much did this cost Craig to send this?
Starting point is 00:49:26 It must have been a small fortune. 75 US dollars. Craig! That's the value. You know when you put the value on a thing? Oh, my gosh. But even that, he spent that much money on this? Craig, you're insane.
Starting point is 00:49:39 He doesn't say on the thing, but yeah, that's lovely. It looks good, Vaughn. It looks good. That's a charm of a dream. Let's go to Morrisville College. Drag everybody back. They made fun of me for not having it. And I tell you what,
Starting point is 00:49:49 I'm going to go get a pair of Barker pants, like proper Barker pants too, not elastic cuff track pants. It's the 90s, baby. We burn. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM. Friday Flashback.
Starting point is 00:50:05 Alright, it's my pick this week for Friday Flashback. Flashback. Flashback. All right, it's my pick this week for Friday Flashback. We just had to do a Foo Fighters song. Of course. Today, because sadly at the weekend, as you will have heard, Taylor Hawkins, the drummer from the Foo Fighters, passed away. We've interviewed him over the years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Always lovely. I saw them live in Wellington. I was on my first date with my first boyfriend, and we went to the Foo Fighters together. Had a little pash in the back, so thank you, Taylor. Thank you for providing the backing. The soundtrack to my lovely pash. Yeah. Amazing Band Live,
Starting point is 00:50:36 they have, since the death of Taylor Hawkins at the weekend, cancelled their remaining dates, so that does mean the New Zealand shows as well. I'm sure with time, they will come back and it will be a lovely tribute for Taylor. It's like the amount of tributes, the outpouring for him from other musicians.
Starting point is 00:50:56 It's incredible. Like he was so well loved. He was so respected, eh? And other drummers are like, oh my God, he was the man. And just hearing about the bromance, like that was the thing that really broke you was the Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins bromance.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Like they were just absolute best friends. I didn't know until the weekend that he was the drummer for Alanis Morissette. Yeah, he was a tour drummer. Yeah, before joining the Foo Fighters. So when Alanis Morissette was like, Jagged Little Pearl was ironic and at the absolute height he was the drummer in her band.
Starting point is 00:51:27 And Dave Grohl rang him and said look, we need a drummer. Do you know anyone? And he said, I'm your guy. He is in the video for You Oughta Know on the drums. I'm just watching the Alanis Morissette video for You Oughta Know. He's there drumming. He was quite open about his
Starting point is 00:51:43 drug use. Yes. And he did open up about a lot of insecurities initially joining the Foo Fighters because Dave Grohl was the drummer in Nirvana. Have you heard of Nirvana?
Starting point is 00:51:53 Have you heard of Nirvana? A small band from the 90s. A little indie group. I heard someone say at the weekend he was the only one that didn't make you wish
Starting point is 00:52:02 Dave Grohl was on the drums on stage. Yeah, true. Because he was an incredible drummer. Everlong, from the Foo Fighters, widely regarded as one of the Foo Fighters' best songs by a lot of people, was the last song ever performed live by drummer Taylor Hawkins before he died at the weekend. And it is today's Friday flashback on ZM. Hello, I'm waiting here for you Here alone
Starting point is 00:52:51 Tonight, I'll throw myself into the blue Out of the red, out of the hedge you say Come down and waste away with me Down with me So out You wanted it to be Over my head Out of the edge of space And I wonder When I sing along with you
Starting point is 00:53:45 If everything could ever be this blue forever If anything could ever be this good again The only thing I'll ever ask of you You gotta promise not to stop When I say When she say Breathe out So I can breathe you in Hold you in
Starting point is 00:54:26 And now I know you've always been there Out of your head Out of my head I'm saying And I wonder When I think along with you Everything could ever feel this real forever Anything could ever be this real again
Starting point is 00:55:00 The only thing I'll ever ask of you Gotta promise not to stop when I say you win Yeah. We're going to start. Everything could ever feel this real forever Anything could ever be this true And I'll get The only thing I'll ever ask of you You've got to promise not to stop when I say you will It's the Foo Fighters, your Friday flashback on ZM Today, Everlong, the last song that Taylor Hawkins performed before his death. They're touring South America. His body has been flying back to LA just in the last few days.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Oh, so sad. The drumming in that song is no... Far out. Insane. Do you know they made that, they wrote that song or came up in that song is no... Far out. Insane. Do you know they made that, they wrote that song or came up with that song during the downtime while they were recording Monkey Wrench. Jeepers.
Starting point is 00:56:32 That whole album. That whole album. Colour and the Shape? Colour and the Shape, amazing. That's a good album from start to end. I'm going to put on my Charlotte Hall, it's not in any jacket. I'm going to listen to Colour and Shape, start to end on the way home. There would have been a lot of 90s kids shedding a tear in the last week.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Yes, absolutely. What's the feedback like? Oh, great. Foo's my favourite band. I've been so sad all week. I was fizzing to see them in December. Epic Tribute, great Friday flashback. Fantastic Friday flashback choice.
Starting point is 00:57:03 We lost a legend this week One of the greats He was Probably Fletcher's best pick That's a fair call That's a fair call Goat song This is one of my favourite songs ever
Starting point is 00:57:15 Somebody said Best Friday flashback Brought tears to my eyes Not only as a huge Foo Fighters fan But this is mine and my husband's wedding song God That's a bloody walk down the aisle, isn't it? What's it about?
Starting point is 00:57:26 It's about a breakup, isn't it? Or about loving someone so much. I think it's loving someone so hard. Right. Yeah. Could it be this good forever? Could it be this real forever? Oh, bloody good.
Starting point is 00:57:39 Someone was crying in the shower listening to that. One, it always blows my mind that people listen to the radio in the shower. I know. Yeah. Because right now they're naked and we're talking. I assume they got out of the shower because they messaged us. Let's give them some compliments again. Oh, look at you.
Starting point is 00:57:55 What, the fog off that mirror? Oh, nice. I like it. I like it. I like it what I see. That sounds creepy now. It does. Let's go to Carwen at the social media desk
Starting point is 00:58:05 who has been engaging despite already having problems with Facebook Marketplace. Oh, I know. And some sales. Always, I love, I don't use Facebook a lot now, but I just love when every now and again a friend lists something and it just pops up and I'm like, why are you selling that?
Starting point is 00:58:20 Oh, the best is when you go in there and you click on like, what is this thing that they're selling? And it's like, you have three mutual friends with these people. And you want to message one of your mutual friends, like, how do you know this person selling a secondhand forklift? Yeah, would they look after their forklift? Would they get a service? Really?
Starting point is 00:58:35 Where did they get this forklift? Well, Caroline, what were you selling on Marketplace? What were you buying? I was selling. Firstly, you can click a toggle that makes it not seen by any of your friends. I do that, so you'll never see my listings. Oh, I didn't know that. So you could do private stuff.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Also because you know you work with us and that we will just say all your listings. Exactly, yeah. I was just selling a dress. Cute, what kind of dress? Just a cute little plaid dress that I love but I've never worn. Why did you buy it in the first place? I love but I've never worn. Aww.
Starting point is 00:59:06 She's going to get rid of it. Why did you buy it in the first place? Because I thought I was going to wear it. We can't get into this. It's a complicated brain. I've got a new clothes policy. If I don't want to wear it out of the store, I'm not buying it. Oh, okay. Good idea.
Starting point is 00:59:19 I'm not willing to put it on then and there and walk out of the store and I'm not buying it. But in the moment, I would have been like, yeah, I'll put it on right now. We should have. Test. No, I always buy clothes and I'm like, of the store and I'm not buying it. But in the moment I would have been like, yeah, I'll put it on right now. We should have. Test. No, I always buy clothes and I'm like, that's the woman I want to be.
Starting point is 00:59:30 I'm not her yet, but I'm going to put it in the wardrobe for when I am that woman. I'll fit this in two months. No, not the fit, the attitude of something. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:59:37 I could do a big, hard, spiky shoulder. Okay. And it just sits there for a long time. So you sell this dress. Yes. And they originally offered me an extra $10 to drop it off.
Starting point is 00:59:49 That's fine. Oh, bonus. I was like, it's not going to take me. I have a hybrid. It doesn't cost me $10 to go down the road. They don't need to know that. Drugs on them. Take that.
Starting point is 00:59:56 So I did that. There are a few little red flags that I don't need to discuss, but I did it anyway. I let my flatmate know where I was going. But as I was driving home after dropping off the item, getting the cash, I got a little message from the person who had bought the dress hitting on me. Oh.
Starting point is 01:00:17 So they said, you're so beautiful, have a lovely day. And then I didn't reply. Right. Wow. You're so beautiful, have a lovely day. And then I didn't reply. Right. Wow. It is so beautiful. Have a lovely day. So they did this after you'd left though. So you were in the safety zone
Starting point is 01:00:31 because that'd be full on if you went to get the money and they were like, oh my God, you're so beautiful. I wouldn't have known what to do. You wouldn't have dropped it off. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:40 It is a bit weird, isn't it? Wish someone would call me beautiful. You're beautiful. We'll start selling some stuff on Marketplace. You need to tell yourself you're beautiful. You've got to love yourself first, hon. Before you can love anybody else. There's some truths.
Starting point is 01:00:52 Let that settle in. Yeah, hit me with some Friday facts. Yeah, man. We're getting heavy today. Yeah. I'm trying to think about the weirdest place I've ever been hit on. Workplaces are weird because you can't leave. No.
Starting point is 01:01:07 I mean, when I used to work in retail, it would happen all the time. Like, women would come in. When I was in clothing stores, women would come in with their husbands who don't want to be there. And we had a couch. We were very bougie. We had a little couch area and they'd sit there. And then the woman would go into the changing room.
Starting point is 01:01:21 Sometimes the husbands would have a little flirt. Guy's a piece of shit, ain't he? While their wife or girlfriend is in the changing room. Sometimes the husbands would be having a little flirt. Guy's a piece of shit, aren't he? While their wife or girlfriend is in the changing room. Yeah, absolutely. And you'd just be like, oh, my God. And then they'd come out and then you'd be like, do you want to buy it? I think you should buy it for her.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Or I'm going to tell her what you said to her. Get those sales. No wonder you had a good sales. I had a bloody good sales record, I tell you what. Wow. What about you, Fletch? Weirdest place you've been hit on or hit on someone? We'll take either from you.
Starting point is 01:01:47 No. Yeah. Well, not like weird as in like the gym. That's not weird though, eh? Nah. Probably. Nah. Like weird, something weird is like at a funeral.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Oh, yeah. That's not a time to hit on someone. No, no, no. Or at a wedding. Oh yeah. That's not a time to hit on someone. No, no, no. Or at a wedding even. You know, and you're like a guest at the wedding. No, but what if
Starting point is 01:02:11 the other guest is single? Oh, you go for it. Don't heaps of people hook up at weddings? I've never hooked up at a wedding. Oh yeah, because people get all like,
Starting point is 01:02:17 they're all emotional, aren't they? What's the classy way of saying horned up? Hormonal. Hormonal. Yeah, the smell and the pheromones in the air. Yeah, the pheromones are in the air, love's in the air.
Starting point is 01:02:29 Yeah. And they... I don't know if there is a classy way of saying that. I think it's horned up. We should call it the wedding horn. The wedding horn. Yeah, that's a good one. She's got the wedding horn.
Starting point is 01:02:38 She's got the wedding... Careful of that, bridesmaid. She's got the wedding horn. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's not going to... Well, this is what we wanted to open up the phone lines and talk about now. Where's the weirdest place you've been hit on?
Starting point is 01:02:49 Like maybe you are packing up something from Facebook Marketplace or Trade Me and you're putting it on the back of the trailer and they're like, do you like a coffee? Or maybe you've got some like a tradie in your house and then while he's putting up your jib, he's... Pulling down your pants. I don't think tradies are doing that anymore because of that TV show in the 2000s. Target.
Starting point is 01:03:12 But if it's mutual, they're not doing it sans consent. Right. We're not talking about going in your lingerie drawer. Yeah. You make sure they're paying... You're not paying them for that. Yeah. They need to clock out
Starting point is 01:03:25 if they're going to make love to you. Oh, yeah, no, it's off the clock. It's got to be off the clock. You'd have to look at his timesheet and be like, that's the hour that we were shagging. I'm not paying you $70 for that.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Yeah. That feels wrong. Well, 0800-DARLS-ATM, we want to take your calls now. 9696, text in. Tell us, where's the weirdest place you've been hit on?
Starting point is 01:03:45 Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Well, Carween was hit on when she sold a dress and then she left and the person she sold the dress to messaged her and said, you're so beautiful. Have a great day.
Starting point is 01:04:00 I'm assuming she's American. Take the compliment. I'll take the compliment, absolutely. But we opened up the phones to say, you know, where was the weirdest place you've been hit on? And I did say it would be weird to be hit on at a funeral. But, Amy, that's happened to you. Oh, no. Well, it didn't happen to me.
Starting point is 01:04:17 I was the person that hit on someone at the funeral. Amy, before we established a new term called the wedding horn, where you're just horny because you're at a wedding. Funeral horn? Yeah, I'm wondering, is there a funeral horn? Yeah, you know, I'm the flip side of the wedding crashes, eh? So you went to the
Starting point is 01:04:35 funeral. What was your relationship to the deceased? Yeah, well, we won't get too far into that, but basically it was my sister's best friend. Right. So I was 19, and this particular person was 17. And so I went to the funeral with my sister.
Starting point is 01:04:54 And I knew the guy. I'd known him for... I knew of him. I used to pass him in the car on the way to work and give him a little, you know, smile. I always thought he was quite cute. And anyway, so we went to the funeral. Obviously very sad and everything else.
Starting point is 01:05:07 And then we were at the buffet and he happened to be at the buffet eating chocolate fingers. So I was like, right. So I went up to him and said... I am loving the details. I'm loving the details in this story. I was like, if you keep eating them chocolate fingers, you're going to get fat.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Jesus Christ, that was really ruthless. What a paradigm. They were the first words to my now husband of 18 years and three children. What? Did he get fat? Amy, did he get fat? Is this your subtle way of telling him? No, he definitely didn't get fat. He definitely improved
Starting point is 01:05:39 with age. Oh my gosh. So you found your husband at a funeral? I did, yeah. When you were teenagers. At the wee age of 19 years. Oh, I love this actually. Good on you for giving it a go. That is a good story.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Maybe there's not an inappropriate place to hit on someone. Yeah, Amy, thanks for your call. Laura, where did you get hit on that was an unusual place? Well, it was actually at my house, which sounds a bit strange. So I have a younger brother. He's like four years younger than me.
Starting point is 01:06:10 And we had some billets going with us from overseas. I remember billeting. Billeting was terrifying. You don't know what you were going to get. I remember we got billeted once for a school exchange and they had green pasta and I'd never seen it before and I really freaked out. Yeah, well, these guys were just from Auckland, so it wasn't that foreign.
Starting point is 01:06:28 Okay. Yeah, so I was 18 at the time and they were probably 14 and we're just sort of like, you know, doing the thing, chatting in the lounge. And then I went to bed at like maybe 9, 9.30. And then at about 10 o'clock, I got like a message request from someone and I was like, what the hell? And then I saw the name. I was like, oh, that looks like a message request from someone. And I was like, what the hell? And then I saw the name. I was like, oh, that looks like one of the villains.
Starting point is 01:06:48 Opened it. Was like, hey, you're super cute. Should I come snuggle in your room? Wow. I mean, player's going to play, shooter's going to shoot. So, yeah, that was an experience. Sort of got up, shoved the chair under my door. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Yeah, barricade yourself in. Jesus. You've got to admire the little guy's, you know, bravery. Yeah. Amazing. Yeah, it was interesting. Yeah. Well, Laura, thank you for your call.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Elsa, where was the weird place you were hit on? Good morning. Sorry, just dropping off the kids. And they're gone. Okay. Have a good day. Andrew's dropping off the kids. Get out, kids. Get out.
Starting point is 01:07:29 Get out. Get out. Get out. Get out. Eat your fruit. Yeah. No, I was getting my COVID jab. And I saw this guy looking at me.
Starting point is 01:07:38 We're all masked up. So, I mean, you can hardly see any, you know, part of me, really. And then he went and got his jab. And then I went and got my jab. and then I went and got my jab, and then there was only two seats left, so I had to sit next to him. And then, yeah, just in that 15 minutes when there was nowhere to go, he just started chatting me up. But, yeah, then maybe the first question then was, are you married?
Starting point is 01:07:59 And I said, yes. It was pretty obvious. That's my reason. Yeah, right. And then it all kind of fizzled out, and then we had to stay sitting awkwardly next to each other. ring, guys. Yeah, right. And then it all kind of fizzled out and then we had to stay sitting awkwardly next to each other. Oh, no. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:08:08 Yes, that weird seating, eh? After you get your jab, it's bizarre. Yeah, just side by side waiting to find out if you're going to pass out or not. Was he hot, though? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:17 Was he nice? Was he hot? Oh, no. He really wasn't. Half the time with the mask. Half the time with the mask. He didn't have to leave the marriage. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 01:08:25 She's still dropping the kids off at school, so obviously he didn't sweep her off. Thanks, Elsa. Some messages in. At a clothing store while I was waiting for my girlfriend, I asked the salesperson how her day is going, but she thought I was hitting on her and not. Luckily, my girlfriend knew I was useless at flirting
Starting point is 01:08:41 and my small talk's terrible, so it gave me the benefit of the doubt. There's definitely sometimes, because I love a friendly conversation with a stranger, and there's definitely moments where I go, I wonder if they think that I'm flirting with them. Yeah. Because I just always engage with people.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Shana says that about me with old gals. Oh, yeah. I love talking to old gals. Yeah. Oh, Lord. Yeah, I get it. I was asking her that, and she's like, you've got to stop, because you're just having a chat.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Yeah. Yeah. But they think you're, like, flirting with you're just having a chat. Yeah. Yeah. But they think you're like flirting with them. Sometimes it's obvious though. When someone's hitting on you, it's very obvious. When I was in Rome, a supermarket worker followed me around the supermarket complimenting my accent and scent. That's a double scent compliment there. Accent and scent.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Accent and scent. Are you sure? They might have thought they were shoplifting. You smell very nice. I like your New Zealand accent. On a bus, I had a guy ask me multiple times if I wanted his phone number. I kept saying no thank you and he'd check in with me a couple of minutes later to see if I'd changed my mind. That's creepy. At least one of you needs a car if you're going to make this relationship work.
Starting point is 01:09:43 Yeah. Exactly. Someone needs to drive this relationship work. Yeah. Exactly. Someone needs to drive. I'm a lawyer. I was in the middle of a messy divorce negotiation when I was hit on. What? Oh. I mean, how much money was he getting? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Somebody said, I used to get hit on when I worked at Muffin Break as a teenager. Now, if you're familiar with the Muffin Break outfit... I mean, aunties. I'd be wearing a heinous brown uniform and cap and honestly, I'm by no means a super hot person, but I don't know what it is. Maybe the smell of muffins. Muffin horn. Muffin horn.
Starting point is 01:10:17 Wedding horn. Funeral horn. And muffin scent horn. Yeah, it's a thing. It's those blueberries. Those uniforms. And those paninis that they warm up that just turn into a big rubbery sponge. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- Yeah, it's just outside Indianapolis, Indiana. Okay. And the fact of the day is that since the late 90s, when they needed to change an intersection, they've put in roundabouts.
Starting point is 01:11:10 I love roundabouts. I love them so much. Every time I get stuck in traffic, I'm like, what does it do with the roundabout here? Exactly. Well, like all of a sudden we're town planners. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's not just like a feeling.
Starting point is 01:11:23 That is an actual fact. Roundabouts are the best intersection. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's not just like a feeling. That is an actual fact. Roundabouts are the best intersection. Yeah. And Carmel, Indiana has completely proved it. But they don't like to put them on state highways, do they? They're always like, that's a state highway. They'll put like lights or whatever. Well, yeah, they have traffic lights, don't they?
Starting point is 01:11:44 The maintenance of roundabouts is significantly less than traffic lights, the cost. Even if you take into consideration that they have gardens in the middle of some of them. Yep. And, you know, change them depending on the season. I personally, this is just a little Vaughan Smith tidbit, I love when they're putting the marigolds in. Oh, yeah. I love beautiful, bright marigolds. They make you happy, don't they?
Starting point is 01:12:05 Yeah, they do. I love a marigold. It reminds me of my nan and it wears that rich smell. And when we were playing cricket on their lawn, if you were wearing a white T-shirt and you fell into the marigolds, that T-shirt was now a yellow T-shirt. You'd get a little bit of pollen on there, wouldn't you? Yeah, a lot of pollen.
Starting point is 01:12:17 I love like a little intersection and there's a cute little roundabout that's just paint. A nipple. A little nub and you just drive straight over it. Just bloody go. Yeah, a tiny little roundabout that's just paint. A nipple. Or a little nub, and you just drive straight over it. Just bloody go, yeah, a tiny little thing. Yeah. And you call them rounder boobs, and that's the nipple. Yes.
Starting point is 01:12:31 The areola. And you just feel like a real badass. Like you're in Fast and the Furious, and you're like, eh. One wheel goes up a little bit. So it's not only that they help traffic flow easier, which they definitely do do do, they have also drastically reduced petrol consumption. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:12:48 Because at a roundabout, you don't, most of the time, if it's not like bumper to bumper, you roll through them. And so there's not heavy braking, there's not heavy acceleration. It's just maybe button off a little bit and then slightly accelerate out because it's a curve so you can't like bang it out. And you're not waiting at lights burning through fuel. Exactly. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:13:07 They've reduced the number of fatalities and serious injury accidents. Huh. And they are safer for cyclists to navigate. Than having to go across traffic, cyclists can stick to the outside and, like... Swoop around. Yeah, swoop around and not have to cross traffic. So I'm just reading this on the Carmel Government Department page and I tell you what, I'm thinking more and more.
Starting point is 01:13:34 The fuel saving, they worked it out. It saved 272 tanker trucks of fuel a year. Whoa. Just for that specific area. Is that why they brought in, in America, that rule where at the traffic lights you get a free turn? Was that when there was fuel issues like 50 years ago? You meant that when it's a red light going straight through,
Starting point is 01:13:58 but if you can make a left turn. In New Zealand, it would be a left turn. You can make a left turn even if the light's red. Yeah, if you treat it like a giveaway. It's a free turn, yeah. That's a great rule. I love that rule. would be a left turn. You can make a left turn even if the light's red. Yeah. If you treat it like a giveaway. It's a free turn, yeah. That's a great rule. I love that rule. That's a great rule.
Starting point is 01:14:09 Do you know, today's April 1st, Happy April Fool's Day. Was it 10 years ago that they changed the giveaway rule in New Zealand? Yes, it was. It must be the end of 2012. Yeah. Do you remember that? Well, that took some time, didn't it? And you'd both be sitting there indicating, you go.
Starting point is 01:14:23 Yeah. No, no, no. I know I got it. And someone didn't know it changed and they were waiting. There's still people that do that. We've had a decade. No, no, no, no, no. You go, you go. Yeah, so the number of
Starting point is 01:14:33 accidents causing injuries reduced by 80% and the number of accidents overall 40% down. Yeah. I'm just, having read this, say no more. I'm pro roundabout. Roundabout everything. Yeah, I'm pro roundabout. Very pro roundabout. I'm going to have this conversation When I get picked up From the airport today
Starting point is 01:14:47 In New Plymouth By mum Because the intersection To get out onto You're waiting for By Bell Blight And she'll say They should put a roundabout here
Starting point is 01:14:55 And I'm like they should They should put a roundabout And off we go The great chat about roundabouts With mum Every time Who do we talk to Who's the mayor
Starting point is 01:15:01 Of New Plymouth I've got no idea Vaughn Let's just distract him Mayor McCheese Mayor McCheese Mayor McCheese He looks like a roundabout Who do we talk to? Who's the mayor of New Plymouth? I've got no idea, Vaughan. Let's just go straight to the mayor. McCheese. Mayor McCheese. Mayor McCheese. He looks like a roundabout. He should be all about a roundabout.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Yes. Well, we need to bring him up with him. Goddamn Mayor McCheese. So today's fact of the day is there is a town in America, it's called Carmel, it's in Indiana, where when they've needed to upgrade or replace intersections since the late 90s, they've just banged in a roundabout and it's all good news.
Starting point is 01:15:27 Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Play it. CDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley's. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley's 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.
Starting point is 01:16:02 All right, today's Silly Little Pole. Breakfast, do you prefer sweet or savory? Silly Little Pole. All right, today's Silly Little Pole. Breakfast. Do you prefer sweet or savoury? It's savoury. Well, this is a funny thing because I'm savoury all the way. Yeah. 100%. Oof, I love a savoury. But I just realised that I do have my smoothies here,
Starting point is 01:16:19 which are typically like fruit-based. So that's... Or like a chocolate protein. But that's only because I'm not getting in here and cooking up some eggs and like avocados. Yeah, it's hardly savoury. What is cereal? Sweet.
Starting point is 01:16:33 But what if it's just like plain-ass oats? Like I have oats and almonds and raisins. The earring on the side is sweet. With milk, I'd say slightly sweet. Well, as we've always said, oats are oats. So they're not cereal. Oats as we've always said, oats are oats. So they're not cereal. Oats are a cereal. Yeah, oats are.
Starting point is 01:16:47 You're just like, once again, Vaughan, you've chucked oats in the category of cereal and you're wrong. I mean, go down the supermarket aisle, it says cereals, oats. And they're oats. They're right there. They are a separate category. Perhaps one of the world's most well-known cereals. It's its own thing.
Starting point is 01:16:58 We digress. Well, the poll is in. This is quite surprising to me. 67% said savoury, with a whopping 33% opting for your French toasts, your pancakes. Yeah. If you go out for breakfast, it's always
Starting point is 01:17:14 savoury. Once in a blue moon, I'll be like, oh, that sounds nice. And then I'll start eating and I'm like, Jesus, what have I done this to myself? It's too sweet. The regert you feel afterwards. So much regert. But when you're hung over, some real myself? Yes, and afterwards. It's too sweet. The regert you feel afterwards. So much regert. But when you're hungover, some real thick griddle cakes and pancakes.
Starting point is 01:17:29 No. But getting them savoury. Griddle, the savoury versus getting them in place of toast. Yeah. But still having eggs and bacon and stuff on top of it. Good stuff. We went out for breakfast on Saturday after my dad's retirement party on Friday. And I will say the Sprouts went hard.
Starting point is 01:17:45 We were all very hungover. And my dad, on his first sort of day of retirement, ordered French toast with Oreos, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, and it had candy floss on top. Tell me where this place is after we finish it. I will. I need that. And then we were all going, Craig, no, you're going to regret it.
Starting point is 01:18:03 He was like, no, I'm a new man. I'm a new man. I'm getting it. And he finished the whole thing. Oh, wow. That to regret it. He was like, no, I'm a new man. I'm a new man. I'm getting it. And he finished the whole thing. Oh, wow. That's too much. That was him for the rest of the day. But also the good thing about going out for breakfast with the kids is they always get
Starting point is 01:18:13 like the pancakes or the French toast and then they don't finish it. So I get to finish my breakfast, then I still get a little bit of the sweet. Yeah. Good stuff. Yeah, I don't mind. It's still not worth having kids for kids for I just order pancakes as well I'm a shut up shop Overall, the cheaper option
Starting point is 01:18:30 Some reactions Mary said, sweet if it's a special breakfast but savoury is the norm So is she talking like a Christmas morning? Oh yeah, we do French toast on Christmas morning Yeah Do you? Always have, always will
Starting point is 01:18:44 Flown in fresh from France. Yeah. No, we get a French chef to cook it for us. That's perfect. Josh says, I don't eat breakfast, but on the odd occasion I do,
Starting point is 01:18:52 you can't beat a savoury sausages and bacon. Yeah, so good. Generally there's eggs in that mix too. I don't know if he's excluded those on purpose. That is a keto nightmare. Full meat breakfast. Danny said, French toast.
Starting point is 01:19:08 Just. What? French toast, just. Hard eyes. No explanation. French toast, just. Yeah, just. Oh, I just.
Starting point is 01:19:17 Yeah. She should have been like French toast, just. Asterix. French kiss. We got it. French kiss. We got it. We got it. Chef's kiss. We got it. We got it.
Starting point is 01:19:25 It was only hard for you. It took me. Yeah, it was real hard for me. English is my third language, though. You've got to make some exceptions for me. What are your first two languages? Spanish. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:36 And Italian. The romance languages. You're a romantic guy. I'm a romantic guy. He was actually a refugee. From Catalina. I did not know. From Catalina.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Wow. I'm so happy you escaped. Yeah Catalina. I did not know from Catalina. Oh, wow. I'm so happy you escaped. It was during the Spanish Inquisition. I'm much older than I look. Yeah, yeah. Carlos says... Of course, that comes naturally to you. Carlos, see how that rolled off the tongue?
Starting point is 01:20:00 Carlos. Oh, wow. Sweet for the weekend, treat savory for the weekdays. Yeah, nice. I think a lot of people, I don't know, yeah, it'd be hard to, in saying this, straight after the show finishes today, I'm off to the Vietnamese cafe across the road
Starting point is 01:20:16 for a breakfast banh mi. Banh mi. A banh mi. You guys had a banh mi while I was isolating. I missed the banh mi. This banh mi is going to blow your buns off. You had the, Ben Hurley said to us,
Starting point is 01:20:27 he was like, what are you doing here? He walked past us, he's like, best sandwiches in Auckland. Then Hayley was like, one day she's like, well I'll try one.
Starting point is 01:20:34 So you had one and you were like, this is phenomenal. So then I had one with Hayley and then Jared's had four since. Jared's had four, no Jared's had four this week. This week.
Starting point is 01:20:42 These bun meats, I want to give a shout out to this cafe across the road. So it's like a Vietnamese, like it's a roll, it's had four this week. This week. These bunmies, I want to give a shout out to this cafe across the road. It's like a Vietnamese sandwich. It's a roll, but it's got the stuff in it. So there's tofu. Karwin had a tofu one.
Starting point is 01:20:52 Of course she would. Thumbs up. Thumbs up for the tofu one. I had the pork belly. You had the chicken. Far out. Just your weight. It's right by you.
Starting point is 01:20:59 But would this be for breakfast? But that would be savoury. Absolutely. They start selling them at 7.30 in the morning. Oh, okay. There you go. Yesterday morning, 9.45, I had a laksa.
Starting point is 01:21:08 A chicken laksa. I left it at a laksa. Never too early. It's good. All right, so our silly little poll today. Overwhelmingly, it's a savoury country. Yes, but quite a big chunk of sweets. You little sweeties out there.
Starting point is 01:21:20 Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Little bit of weed popped up on Parliament grounds. Weed plant. Weed plant at Parliament. You know, this is where they had their camp, isn't it? The protesters. This photo's
Starting point is 01:21:36 appeared. Yeah, man. It's a plant, man. That's not ours. It was a drug-free event. Who's calling you? That's just what my DM's blowing up. It was a drug-free event. Who's calling you? That's just what my DM's blowing up. Whoa. It's just going into the weekend. This party animal's DMs are blowing up.
Starting point is 01:21:51 Watch out. What just happened? That was me just getting ready to unleash the party animal. Do you know, ever since he got that jacket, his whole, like, cool vibe thing has totally changed. It's real 90s. So I'm looking at these photos. It doesn't look like
Starting point is 01:22:06 this tiny little weed, little seed, like the seedlings, I guess, that have come out and they're just starting. Do you reckon this is just from like an accidental
Starting point is 01:22:13 dropping of seeds? Or like the panic and the rush to try to set the playground on fire. Someone might have like pulled the lighter out of their pocket
Starting point is 01:22:21 but also like dragged out the baggie that had the seeds in it and then the seeds. No drugs. There was no drugs out the baggie that had the seeds in it. No drugs. There was no drugs at the event. There's so many. If you look at the ground still, they're a mess.
Starting point is 01:22:32 Still covered in bloody straw and the likes. And it's just sprouting up out of there. I'd love to, as a taxpayer, I'd have no problem forking out some taxpayer money for that Riddie Lawn rolly. I love that stuff. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:22:45 Love that Riddie Lawn. You'd have to sneak that past the Taxpayers Union, mate. You'd have to sneak that reddy lawn rolly. Oh, yes. I love that stuff. Absolutely. Love that reddy lawn. Get that past the Taxpayers Union, mate. You have to sneak that past the Taxpayers Union. I'm all for it. I don't think we get to delegate where our taxes go to, though. Who does?
Starting point is 01:22:56 Grant Robertson? Grant Robertson. Oh, we took to Grant, yeah. We ran into him at the airport that time. We should have mentioned it. Oh, should have. One of those before the protests. We weren't to know.
Starting point is 01:23:03 We couldn't tell the future. Oh, you should have foreseen this. You'd have been used to the government, wouldn't you? Well, I would have got the winning lotto taken over the weekend. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:11 And then would you have used some of that money to re-sow the lawn like with a rollout? The problem with the rollout lawn, once it's down, you've got to like really take care of it. Whereas if you're growing from seed, fence it off.
Starting point is 01:23:25 That sounds too hard. Get it even seeded out over the top. You know, water, love and of it. Whereas if you're growing from seed, fence it off. Get it even. Seed it out. Over the top. Water, love and nourish. But these ones, sometimes no matter what you do, you're going to get dead patches. Yeah, right. And then the weeds grow up through the gaps sometimes. And it's probably still going to come through, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:23:35 Because these seeds will be in the dirt. Yeah, yeah. I think it'll be a while. They'll have to rip it all up, I think. Right. I think we need to confiscate them. Yeah, I agree. Or just let it grow.
Starting point is 01:23:45 I'm sure there'll be someone out there today going through making sure there are none poking out. Look, it's Mother Nature. Let it be. Chloe Swarbrick will be down there
Starting point is 01:23:53 absolutely giving it a water and a bit of food, a bit of fertiliser. Oh, I thought you mentioned having snips down there, snipping them off. Oh, it's not ready yet. It's not ready yet.
Starting point is 01:24:01 No, you've got to let it mature. Okay. Alright, Friday Jams next. Have a great weekend. We'll catch you back on Monday. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. ZM's $100,000 Secret Sound. Soundkeeper Owls, good morning.

Starting point is 01:25:08 Oh, I think it's a magnetic charging cable. Oh! Yeah, like... Like the ones you put your Apple Watch on? Or like the back of your phone, a charging pad? It goes on to the back of your phone. It's the sound of it going... Like a MacBook or something like that. Oh, yeah, like that.
Starting point is 01:25:24 I can do one. Hold it up. You've got one on your laptop. Oh, get it closer into the mic. That was as close as I can get. No, it wasn't. Okay. Oh, because it does go.
Starting point is 01:25:43 I guess, yeah. Up close? But it doesn't make that clunky. The watch one does, and you put it on the watch charger. That's a good guess. Good guess. I like this. It's funny how many different sounds there are, right?
Starting point is 01:25:58 Just a mic. It's trippy, man. You don't realise until you play this dumb thing. Bro, so many sounds. So many sounds, man. You're on to something, man. dumb thing.
