Don't ever call me plump again. There's another one. It's been a long pandemic, okay? A plump two-eyed minion with spiky hair.
Starting point is 00:02:05 What a description of someone. Yeah, but then every other minion I'm seeing, I've looked up Carl. This is another minion called Carl, and that's the guy that's on your. Yeah, that's the one there. He's one-eyed, spiky hair. He's a plump one-eyed minion with spiky hair. I am so excited. Tell your mum thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Yeah, tell her yourself. Tell her what she bought me. Fuck all! Oh, you're not going to gift. Oh, she bought her a chocolate cake, but that wasn't for me. But I've eaten a lot of it. Right. Yeah, you did.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Well, don't eat. Vaughn's the two-eyed plop minion with no spiky hair. Just a beard. A minion, I do need representation in the minion world. A minion with a beard. That would be really great. representation in the minion world. A minion with a beard. That would be really great. Where would the beard go, though? They've got no chin.
Starting point is 00:02:48 True. Under the mouth. It would look like pubes. It would look like pubes popping up out of the... That's a good... Do minions have penises? No, they are a penis. No, they're a tic-tac, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:03:01 How do minions breed? How do minions... I don't know. How do minions breed? How do minions reproduce? How do minions reproduce? Additionally, the director confirmed that minions cannot reproduce or divide themselves in any way to create more minions. Well, how are they created? That's it.
Starting point is 00:03:16 I mean, we've got a limited supply of minions. Yeah, you know, if you did a deep dive into the internet, you'd find some fan fiction or graphics. Oh, you don't have to dive that deep. Before this, we turn to Jared. What rule on the internet is it? Oh, bullshit. You know, there's a rule.
Starting point is 00:03:31 There's a bunch of rules for the internet. Internet rule 39 or 27? 35. 34. Oh, now he knows. Rule 34 of the internet is if it exists, there's adult versions of it. Oh, right. There's porn of it.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Yeah, right. Yeah, it's rule 34 of the internet. There's's adult versions of it. Ah, right. There's porn of it. Yeah, right. Yeah, it's rule 34 of the internet. There's a whole lot of it. You should look up the internet rules just to be aware of what a deprived, sick place it is. Okay. But don't look it up. Minions-wise. Thank you, Sam.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Good morning. Welcome to the show. So, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Thursday morning. Oh, nearly there. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fleet, Schmorn and Hayley. Thursday morning. Oh, nearly there. Nearly Friday. Nearly. Nearly.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Nearly. Now, guys, don't be alarmed that I look so cool this morning. You're wearing your sunnies? I'm wearing my sunnies. I've just got a bit of a headache. With your cardi vest. I've got a new sweater vest. Yeah, sweater vest.
Starting point is 00:04:23 It's great. Is that a new sweater vest? New sweater vest. It's great. Is that a new sweater vest? New sweater vest. That's great. I assumed it was an older vintage sweater vest. A brand new. Where'd you get it from? Koto.
Starting point is 00:04:36 New Zealand brand, though. Support local. Okay, knitted. Ethical fabrics. Yeah, good start. Merino? Local Merino, is it? I couldn't tell you.
Starting point is 00:04:43 You don't know that. You know it's ethical, but we can't tell me. I don't know what those sheep thought of the whole situation. I'm thinking more about I look cool, not just because of my sweater vest, my glasses. I just went to bed so early last night, 7.30. But you've got a headache or a migraine. Just like an eyeball headache. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Yeah. So the sunglasses will fix that? I think so. Will you say you need a drink, water or a Prosecco? Because you said you did have a bottle of Prosecco last night. I did have a bottle of Prosecco. That could have helped you cause the headache. No, that's rookie headache numbers.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Yeah. Sproul's experienced. No, no, no. That didn't do her. Maybe too much sleep, which sounds weird, but sometimes when you're tired and you sleep too early and you sleep too much, you do get a headache. Well, I only had eight hours.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Okay. Hmm. All right, well, you're refreshed and ready to go in your sweaty vest. Brain cancer? I think I am dying. Okay. That'd be great. God, that'd really backfire on us, though, wouldn't it, in a once time?
Starting point is 00:05:39 If I'm like, oh, it was, yeah. It was. I'd be like, oh, no, But at the same time, I did guess. You did guess, yeah. You'd be like, I win. Coming up on the show, the top six. Yeah, the top six signs you're being served by a 13-year-old. Australia, once again, kind of toying with this idea of getting children working in responsible positions.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Yeah, like retail jobs. Because like us, they're struggling to fill a lot of jobs, aren't they? Yeah. In Aussie. Is their age 14 like ours? 14's the legal age. I didn't know there was. I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:06:15 I have never really thought about it. Like, I know lots of like my friends used to get jobs at like Macca's or something after school. At 14? Or like, no, it was more like 15, 16. Yeah, I can't remember. I can't remember 16. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:27 14 was a paper run. Yeah. The milk run. Like some delivery stuff, helping people out. Like you could do that at 13, 14. Yeah, never really like a front facing. I don't know where I got the name, the age of 14 from. In New Zealand, there's no general minimum age for employment,
Starting point is 00:06:43 but there are rules against the times young people can work. Generally the minimum age is around 13. Okay. I had a paper run at 11? 11 or 12 maybe? Yeah I think paper runs different. Yeah. I did it like 5 days a week and I think I made $3.50
Starting point is 00:07:00 a week or something. Wild eh? Wild. I used to get the pay slips at the end of each week and be like, yes! And then you ring the paper to get them to do a story on the fact that you're a youth worker who's getting, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:12 absolutely pummeled in the wages department and they refuse to print it because it's them that's doing it. I know. It's the media, man. Yeah, it's the media for you, isn't it? It's the media.
Starting point is 00:07:20 All right, well, it's coming up in the top six. Next on the show, though. Phones. News alert. They're not good for you. Again. But it's coming up in the top six. Next on the show though. Phones. News alert. They're not good for you. Again. But here's a new reason why they're not good for you. Alright, great. We've heard it before.
Starting point is 00:07:37 There are blue light, which is the light of your phones and your laptops. The bright light. Is this the light that you're meant to have after a certain time of the day? Like it gets to six o'clock at night. You've got to get rid of it. And you get rid of it so your phone looks a bit dull and then you're able to go to sleep easier? Yeah, lots of laptops and phones.
Starting point is 00:07:58 I know the Macs do have an inbuilt kind of blue light thing. Like a night mode, eh? A night mode that as it gets later in your day, it kind of dims the blue light and it goes a bit more orange. Right. Or you can get an app, like I use that Flux app
Starting point is 00:08:12 that makes it really orange, sucks all the blue out. Because they've said for years that it's bad for your eyeballs. Yeah. It can give you headaches and it can deteriorate your eyes. But now there's been some research.
Starting point is 00:08:23 This is the first research of its kind. They used fruit flies. So, you know, I'm sure they're interchangeable with humans. Yeah, you can't go wrong with fruit flies. You can't go wrong with a fruit fly. We can't do it on monkeys anymore. I think those days are past. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:36 So the humble fruit fly is now the victim of animal testing. Monkeys would look way cooler in blue blocker sunglasses. Yeah, they would. Blue light sunglasses. Flies, they've got too many eyes as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're all eyes. How many eyes does a fruit fly have?
Starting point is 00:08:49 Don't they have like hundreds? I'll spot out the oranges on the bench. Yeah, yeah. So they can burrow into them. So they can have a little. I know other flies have lots of eyes, don't they? My favourite thing about flies is how they rub their hands together. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:04 You know, and they like pick up their little finger. Scheming. Yeah. The fruit fly has two neural super composition compound eyes. Which is two. So they've got two.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Yeah, but within that eye it might be like multiple surfaces. Like one of those sort of magic those magic kaleidoscope things. Yeah. Well, anyway, they did this test on
Starting point is 00:09:25 with blue light and they used a really strong blue light on these fruit flies and it did show signs of ageing. And I don't know how you measure signs of ageing in a fruit fly. Right. Some crow's feet, wrinkles. Yeah, right. We've got to trust the scientists, don't we?
Starting point is 00:09:41 We do. They said they're the first and this is the first research of its kind to show that levels of specific metabolites, which are chemicals that are essential for cells to function correctly, are altered in the fruit flies when they're exposed to blue light. So it's the cells start to deteriorate.
Starting point is 00:09:56 And that's what ageing is, is your cells deteriorating slowly but surely. The blue light is also ageing us. So it's ageing us. It's ageing our faces. Okay, so wait. What do we do at night? Have a bright screen and just go to bed later because we
Starting point is 00:10:09 have exposed ourselves to all this bright light. No, it's the opposite. We don't have bright light. You don't have bright light. This one was like blue light interrupts your sleep, right? That's what they say. Don't have it because it messes with your circadian rhythm
Starting point is 00:10:26 But this one is like Blue light At any time of the day So right now Me looking at this screen Any time Okay Is aging me
Starting point is 00:10:33 But then why Did 50 year olds In the 1950s Look like 100 year olds Do now Because they didn't have screens I was reading an article About this
Starting point is 00:10:42 Like why people Used to look older Yeah I can't remember the gist of it It's probably because They were on the ciggies though Every half an hour Because they didn't have screens. I was reading an article about this, like why people used to look older. Yeah. I can't remember the gist of it. It's probably because they were on the ciggies though, every half an hour. They'd be typing at their typewriters. They didn't have skincare.
Starting point is 00:10:52 They didn't have sunblock. Yeah. I reckon no sunblock would have played a massive part in it. Yeah, absolutely. But my grandfather was a painter, like a house painter. And by the time he was on his last years, he had so much cut out of him because you know like nose bits and ears cut off.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Oh, old boys loved that. Loved the top of an egg on from Skin Cancer didn't they? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Chunk of the nose. Alright, 14 past six, next on the show. New Zealand, we have a few options for streaming on how to watch shows online. I'm not talking about streams, although we do have a few of those too. Some good streams. Some very heavily polluted streams. I saw that some Taranaki streams earlier this week
Starting point is 00:11:32 had something like eight times the recommended amount of one of the bad things. How do you tell the difference between a stream and a river? In a river? Pure size. Little. Little? Little is a stream. Stream is a little. Yeah. Little's a stream. Stream a little stream Yeah little's a stream Stream a little stream Yeah
Starting point is 00:11:46 If you can get a boat up And it's a river right Yeah That's how I do it anyway But streaming services Where to watch TV shows And movies and stuff If you've ever wondered
Starting point is 00:11:54 What one is most popular In New Zealand I've got a little breakdown For you next Play ZM's Fletch Vaughn
Starting point is 00:12:00 And Hayley Well it's Something I've wondered about What the most popular Streaming services In New Zealand are. And now I've got some answers. Thanks to Nelson. Oh, classic surveyors.
Starting point is 00:12:13 The surveyors. Yeah. Leslie Nelson and Roy Morgan, two comedic geniuses, got together and they give us surveys and results and all that stuff now. Isn't Leslie Nelson dead? Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Yeah. That's what makes him so amazing. What were his famous movies? Top Gun. Naked Gun. No, Naked Gun. Airplane. Airplane.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Airplane was great. My favourite. Such a good movie. I mean, problematic now. That movie could never. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Never be made now. Anytime someone says, are you serious?
Starting point is 00:12:45 I always think, I am serious. Don't call me Shirley. Surely you can't be serious. I am serious. Don't call me Shirley. So despite all the Netflix backlash, it's still number one, and it's actually gone up, which is surprising because it's the one that I would watch the least
Starting point is 00:13:05 at the moment. I've got one of those TVs. I'm all about Neon and Disney Plus at the moment. Yeah, me too. Me too, but I I've got one of those TVs that has like a Netflix button on the remote. Yes. Oh. You know what I mean? That they did that for a while. Otherwise
Starting point is 00:13:21 you've got to go to the apps and then choose your other ones. Yeah, I've got a Netflix button and an Amazon Prime button and then one that's like my app and you can program the my app button to be whatever one you want yeah okay so I still haven't figured out how to do that right man I'm gonna do that one day yeah um so yeah Netflix paid TV watched paid TV in the last four weeks. In 2022, Netflix had 2.8 million New Zealanders aged 15 and over watching it. That's 67% of the New Zealand population aged over 15 years of age has watched Netflix in the last four weeks.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Disney Plus is second at 1.1. Man, that hasn't taken them long. That's a huge difference between first and second. They've been around for ages. Yeah. Then Neon is at half a million. Amazon Prime's
Starting point is 00:14:22 just behind them as well. They're sitting at about half a million. And then Sky Sport Now, Spark Sport and other paid TV subscription provider. They need to work on that name. That's a long name. So is that like TVNZ Plus? Yeah, so TVNZ Plus is free. You don't
Starting point is 00:14:38 pay for it. So that's not included. Right. Oh, because it's got ads. Somebody was here recently. They were like a well-known person that came to New Zealand and they were like, I've just heard that this is free.
Starting point is 00:14:51 And they were like, look at all these BBC shows that are for free. It's so good. There's some good content on there. Yeah, some great content. Yeah, all the BBC stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Yeah. Lots of movies. And they get some American shows and stuff. You just have a little ad every now and then. Yeah. You gotta have a little ad get some American shows and stuff. You just have a little ad every now and then. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:07 You gotta have a little ad. You get a little ad in your bag. Also it's still less ads than terrestrial television. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:12 Do they have the numbers of who was watching paid television like live to air? Live. You mean have you been paying
Starting point is 00:15:18 attention? Like have you been paying attention on Tomorrow Night 8.30 on 2? Nah. Sorry. I think just people
Starting point is 00:15:24 in rest homes. Yeah I think it was like maybe like 11,000.30 on 2. Nah. Sorry. I think just people in rest homes. Yeah, I think it was like maybe like 11,000. Big rest home energy. TVs in waiting rooms at the hospital, that kind of stuff. Yeah. So people are still watching the show. Yeah. Well, that's good.
Starting point is 00:15:37 No, that's good. That's really good. Bye. Bye. You go. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Play. ZM. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZDM.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly little Paul. Silly little Paul. It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little Paul. Silly little Paul. Silly little Paul. Silly little Paul. Silly little Paul.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Today's sillyilly Little Poll. Today's Silly Little Poll is going out for dinner, split the bill or pay for what you ordered. This is, it's a divisive. It's really, it's awkward. And this was, I believe a listener sent this in. Yeah, a listener suggested. I feel like they've been in this situation maybe last weekend
Starting point is 00:16:26 where there was some unfair sharing of the BYO bill. I had a side salad and a cup of milk, and you all had cocktails and the steak. If I went to dinner and someone was like, can I get a glass of milk? I'd be like, one of us has got to leave. It's just a shame I liked you. For me, it depends who you're with.
Starting point is 00:16:46 I never go out for dinner with anybody that eats less than me, so split, split, split. No, but I mean in terms of maybe their financial position. Right. So you have a little bit of a roundtable chat about wages and post-tax earnings, how much you're putting into your KiwiSaver. No, but you can tell. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:17:03 You can tell. What if they've got flies around them? They're your friends. Holes in their clothes. Yeah, they you can tell. You know what I mean? You can tell. What if they've got, like, flies around them? They're your friends. Holes in their clothes. Yeah, they're your friends. You know, right? Yeah. I'm the same.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Yeah, but what if they're also wearing a brand new $400 Aneen Bing hooded sweatshirt and then they want to split the bill because times are tough? Bullshit. I know that costs $400.
Starting point is 00:17:20 You're not prioritising food. Yeah, but they can't go up to the counter and take the jumper off their back and say, is this a fair exchange? But then there are people like you who eat way more than some other people. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:32 And if you're, maybe you're on a journey to health and you go out with your friends and you have... Well, don't go out for dinner then! And you have a salad... The rule is we are out to be gluttons. Yes. You have a salad and maybe you don't do the corkage. Oh!
Starting point is 00:17:43 I can't do that. The corkage is split. Because even if you're not drinking, you benefit from me drinking because I'm more fun. Right. Okay. So that's the corkage that you have to pay. Well, today's silly little poll. Do you split? 61% said only pay for what you ordered. 39%
Starting point is 00:17:58 said split it evenly. Travis, here comes big, dick energy Travis. Big debit card. Travis. Here comes big, dick energy Travis. Big debit card energy Travis. No hands. He says, or take turns paying for the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Whoa. Oh, yeah, that's big dick energy. That's big debit card energy. But Travis is like, yeah, we're going to go to, you know, a little Chinese joint. And it costs him a couple hundred bucks. And then next time, Travis is like, hey, we're going to go to a little Chinese joint. And it costs him a couple hundred bucks. And then next time, Travis is like, hey,
Starting point is 00:18:28 Steve, it's your turn to share. God, I feel like a steak. Should we go to a steakhouse? Yeah, what's Al Brown doing these days? Yeah. And it costs like $500 for the whole table. Yeah. Yeah, no, you can't do that. Travis is really waving his debit card in everybody's face. Megan says, if you're out with one friend
Starting point is 00:18:44 or up to three couples, split it, but if it's a bigger group then you pay your own Yeah, okay, yeah, I agree with that when you've got a big birthday party, BYO situation. Yeah, because what if at one end of the table the gals all were slamming espresso martinis while old mate at the other end was on tap beers
Starting point is 00:19:00 and sharing a mate. Yeah, that's the other the other thing that, that's a bring cash situation in my mind too. Although, to be honest, a lot of places now just do one payment per table and it's just better if someone just puts it on maybe Travis Springs' big debit card energy. His hefty F-poss.
Starting point is 00:19:14 And then you just take a photo of the receipt and tell everyone to pay you back and one person pays. Yeah, we did that the other night, didn't we? Yeah, you just pay for what you want and that's kind of the easiest way. Yeah. Okay, that works.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Rebecca says, with our main group of friends, we're always split. We've been friends for 20 years plus, so it's just natural. But if we were going out with new friends, we'd probably just pay for what we ordered. Yeah. It's that moment, though, at the counter that's awkward, isn't it? And how would you like to pay? No, I only had two spring rolls. You had six. Oh, it's got to be discussed before you you like to pay? No, I only had two spring rolls. You had six.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Oh, it's got to be discussed before you get up to pay. Yeah. Yeah. It's almost got to be discussed before dinner. Yeah. Upon meeting.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Yeah. Hey, great to see you. Great to see you. I'm only paying for what I ordered. Great start to the evening. Be that person. Nancy said, just find friends that eat
Starting point is 00:20:04 the same amount of stuff as you and like to share their plate with you and then split the bill. Yep. That's why we work well going out for dinner. Because we'll just eat a lot. And we always go to places that do things a little bit differently. Where we like to share. We do things a little differently.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Have you eaten here before? No, we haven't. No. Well, we do things a little bit differently. Our plates are all designed to be shared. Things kind of come out as they're ready. Oh, my God, that's so different. And in a vatour.
Starting point is 00:20:29 They do everywhere else. Where is it? 2007? This is amazing. Literally everyone is doing that. My parents still don't like doing that. Oh, don't they? No, Mum's like, I kind of was just like having my own meal.
Starting point is 00:20:40 I'm like, Mum, this is the way we're doing it. She's like, I'll try. But are they worried that pudding's going to come out first? No, no, no. Then they're just worried that I might get something. There might be four dishes on the table that Mum doesn't like. So she's relegated to garlic bread. Which even then,
Starting point is 00:20:55 it might be a bit spicy. A bit spicy? Yeah. So she's worried she's going to miss out. Naomi says, kids meals and directly related alcoholic tendencies make our bill way too big to be shared. Ah, that's a good, if kids are there, you're just paying for your family, right?
Starting point is 00:21:14 Yeah, yeah. Or if you're dining with another family with the same amount of kids. Yeah. Then you can split. Yeah, then you can split. We go out with friends and they've got one less child than us. But then the dad always makes a big deal about having a couple extra beers. To make up a child's worth of beers.
Starting point is 00:21:33 It's like, look, I love this maths. Amy, splitting it evenly just makes it easier for everybody, especially if you shit at maths. I mean, that's a fair call. Julie says, unless the others are taking the piss, you'll split it evenly. I think you can also get apps as well where you put in the bill and then all your friends kind of get an amount sent to you. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Is that a thing? Gemma says, when it's just me and my boyfriend, we split it down the middle. A group setting definitely paid for what you had. Times are tough, man. Yeah. Yeah. Fair call. There you go.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Silly little poll. Oh, Splitwise. Is that the app? Splitwise. Yeah. Cool. There you go. Silly little poll. Oh, Splitwise. Is that the app? Splitwise. Oh. Splitwise. Do you use this, producer Anna? Are you a big Splitwiser?
Starting point is 00:22:12 What do you do? That one's not plugged in. Okay. Um, no. My friends do it. You worked in radio long? You might want to get a bit closer to that microphone. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Wow. And you call yourself an executive producer. No, please, go on. Wow. Too close. Halfway in between. I hate you. Now, there is a bit of an issue.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Well, there was a bit of an issue with a Christchurch BP on Rustley Road. I don't know. A Rustley Old Road. It's a Rustley Old Road. Anyway, a major problem. So people, this affected 14 motorists over the space of, I believe... I know which one it is. It's that massive one on the corner. Rust...
Starting point is 00:23:03 Did you just describe a service station as the massive one on the corner of the main... They're all massive and they're all on the corner. Did you just describe a service station as the massive one on the corner of the main street? They're all massive and they're all on the corner. So Rustley Road is that road that runs out towards the airport. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like, that's that big one you get on. It's got a real motorway vibe to it at one stage.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Then with the Antarctic Centre. And you get, and then you turn left and then the airport and the Antarctic Centre are there. Okay. Anyway, that one, the big one on the corner. So for 14 hours, one of the pumps was pumping out the wrong kind of petrol. Meaning that cars that thought they were filling their cars with 91, normal, regular 91 fuel, were filling it with diesel.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Oh, okay. Because it wouldn't have mattered if it had been like this 95 or 98 or whatever. No, you just get a nicer petrol. You get a nicer petrol. No, they were filling it with diesel. Oh. So, like, for example, one woman filled up her car on the way to work and then she was in the middle of busy traffic
Starting point is 00:24:02 and then all of the lights on the dashboard came up. It was like juddering, and the car just came to a stop. Because it just doesn't work. It's so bad for the car. And then she... So they don't have to buy her a new car now? No, they have to drain it. They drain it and give it a bit of a clean,
Starting point is 00:24:19 and then you can put petrol in it. Because have you ever seen those machines sometimes that come to the service station, Mr. Sucky or whatever, and they're for people that put the wrong petrol in their car. And they suck it out. Yeah. Yeah. But what if it gets into the engine a bit?
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah, I don't know. I mean, she did drive for a little bit. Yeah. And it would use that, what, remainder of the petrol before it was like. I would be, I'd be asking for a new car. Yeah. I'd certainly try it on. So they had, I mean, they've been a bit quiet, let's just say that. But this was yesterday.
Starting point is 00:24:49 And they haven't really gone back to these people. But they've sent them these forms to say, you've got to fill this out and send us a photo and blah, blah, blah. And they'll obviously pay for everything. So they could easily find out because they'd have security cameras. Yeah, totally. So it was 14 cars in total that filled their cars with diesel instead of petrol. So if that was you and you were filling up
Starting point is 00:25:10 yesterday at the big one by the intersection. Rustly. Yep, then you might want to just check. So they have, I think that they're like basically they can't give 91 at the moment. There's a problem with all of them. Well they need to clean out the whole tank now, wouldn't they?
Starting point is 00:25:25 Yeah, the regular 91 supplies remain unavailable since the issue on Tuesday this week. They're being investigated at the moment. They're proactively working with Impacted Customers to resolve this issue. Right, that's just their one pump. So putting diesel in a petrol tank can cause damage by blocking up the catalytic converters. And if the car continues to run for a long time,
Starting point is 00:25:46 the diesel can fill up the oil sump. Oh, yeah, the oil sump. Oh, the oil sump gets filled up with the catalytic converters. How does it get into the oil sump? Through the catalytic converters. Yeah. There's a little hole. There's that little hole.
Starting point is 00:26:01 There's that hole. The catalytic hole. And it stuffs it all up. So anyway, that's $1,400. Just me explaining that to you. Yeah, yeah. Hi there. Today's top six. Hi there. Today's top six.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Australia looking at filling their retail shortage with children as young as 13. Yeah, so their labour laws, the Australian retailers want the government to change their labour laws to determine at what age children can start paid work because they can't at 13. But what's the point? I mean, yes, on the weekends, I get it. But, like, they'd finish school at 3, get to the shop by 4, the shop closes at 5. Yeah, I think it would also be, like, maybe you fast food as well,
Starting point is 00:26:56 and hospo maybe. Yeah, right. When I was 13, I'd be terrible in a shop. I was a goth. Dude, everybody would have been terrible in a shop at 13. Like, if you weren't awkward, you were a prick. Yes. If you weren't a prick, you were, yeah,
Starting point is 00:27:11 just you couldn't look at an adult in the eyes to speak to them. I always remember friends, but maybe they were like 16, 17 working like after school fast food in some retail. But yeah. Us have been older. But Australia had the same problem as us at the moment. after school fast food in some retail. But yeah. It must have been older. But Australia had the same problem as us at the moment.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Just so many job vacancies and just the people just aren't there. So they're like, well, let's tap into these 13, 14 year olds. Yeah. Yeah. But you'd be cashed up. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Imagine doing... I remember even when people were moving to Australia to just work in retail. Yeah. Because the retail hourly rate was... Better than like an office job in New Zealand. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Get people so cashed up. So the top six signs you've been served by a 13-year-old. Number five on the list. Ah, number six on the list of the top six signs you've been served by a 13-year-old. They're ram-raiding their own shop. Yeah. Don't give them the keys. They're ram-raiding their own shop. Yeah. Don't give them the keys. They're just like, boss, I'm going to take my break.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Oh, no, a 13-year-old seems like you're not locking up. No, or cashing up. When you were allowed to lock up, but you didn't lock up one day? Yeah, I didn't lock up. And I just got to work the next day and opened the roller door and nothing had happened. I was like, well, that's lucky. Wow.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Yeah, they're like, boss, I'm going to take my break now. Boss is like, well, that's lucky. Wow. Yeah, they're like, boss, I might take my break now. Boss is like, okay. Ramp! I'm back, but I'm also ramming around in the store. This is a very confusing thing for you, I get that, as a boss. But I'm 13. But I'm 13. You know, I'm unpredictable.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Number five on the list of the top six signs you're being served by a 13-year-old. You're not being served by a 13 year old because they're just doing a TikTok dance real quick, they'll be there real soon. Oh they would too, especially in retail with like the cool clothes and the mirrors and stuff. Yeah, they're like I'm just gonna do one over here, oh god I'll be
Starting point is 00:28:58 there soon. Hang on. I'm coming on. Number four on the list of the top six signs you've been served by a 13-year-old. They guess your age and they guess that you're 55 even though you're only 40. Kids are terrible. How old are you? How old do you think I am?
Starting point is 00:29:15 Never say that to a kid. Oh, yeah, because they think you're like 60 or something. They'll be like, hmm, 80? You dumb little. Number three on the list of the top six signs you're being served by a 13-year-old. You tell them you want to pay with cash and they call you a boomer.
Starting point is 00:29:31 You are a boomer if you're paying with cash, to be fair. I'll pay with cash. Okay, boomer. What a Karen. Or they ask for, like, the credit card. Machine. Remember that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:42 If the F-poss was down. Yeah, or if you gave them something on App Pro. Do you remember App that? Yeah. We had that. If the F-poss was down. Yeah, or if you gave them something on App Pro. Do you remember App Pro? No. You could go into a store and take clothes home but not pay for them
Starting point is 00:29:52 and try them on with other things in your wardrobe and then bring them back and then pay for them but you'd do it like a of their credit card. Who's trusting people with that?
Starting point is 00:29:59 Designer clothing stores in Wellington. That's insane. So you'd take an imprint of their credit card in case they didn't come back. Yeah, and then you'd charge it. Right.
Starting point is 00:30:06 What if it was a stolen credit card? You'd charge it. Amazing. What if it had no credit left on it? You're stuffed. Number two on the list of the top six signs you've been served by a 13-year-old. They're constantly telling you they're hungry
Starting point is 00:30:22 like it's your problem. Yeah. It's a great... I'm hungry. I mean, cool. Does your manager have to say, there's fruit in the bowl? Yeah, or your manager says, hi, hungry, I'm manager. Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:35 I'm hungry. Number one on the list of the top six signs you've been served by a 13-year-old. You ask them to do something and they say, you can't tell me what to do, you're not my mum. Yeah. Even though if their mum asked them to do something and they say, you can't tell me what to do, you're not my mum. Yeah. Even though if their mum asked them to do something, they wouldn't do it either. They'd say, you can't tell me what to do, you're not my boss. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:51 To the mum and then to the boss, it's the you're not my mum. Yeah. It's a very confusing paradox. That is today's top six. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Starting point is 00:34:01 Oh, Simon. But still, it's the Women in Tech Awards. To support Queensland kids who have limiting illnesses. I am really upset about this. So, yeah. Right. Okay. Anyway, but I think the thing that's causing a stir
Starting point is 00:34:15 is it's not to say that this man who is supporting Queensland kids who have life-limiting illnesses, I'm not coming for him, am I? No, no. It's just that he's been nominated for a Women in Technology Award. Like, I think even he probably would be like,
Starting point is 00:34:27 leave me out of this, surely. That's what I was going to say. Paul Simon's like, all of a sudden there'd be hate coming his way. He's like, no. No, no, no, I don't want it. I don't want it. I'll answer your abusive tweets soon. I'm just saving some children. I'm just trying to get these sick kids through

Starting point is 00:35:35 according to local Facebook pages. Arms back. Tauranga Local Notice Board. Ashley posts on there. Hello there. A glass eyeball has been left at the mixture eatery a couple of weeks back. Is anybody looking for their eye? Contact us if it's yours.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Look at this thing. Wait, is it real? Like somebody's got a glass eye. I always assumed a glass eyeball would be perfectly circular, spherical. But that's like it would be perfectly circular, spherical, but that's like... It would have to fit the hole, wouldn't it? No, they're like... They're not even a full ball.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Nah. Yeah, they're like a little kind of... How do they... I don't know, curve thing. But you don't need to fill the whole thing. You're just kind of covering. I thought you would want to fill the whole thing because you wouldn't want it falling backwards.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Well, I can't get taking off your glasses or your gloves to eat at an eatery, but why do you need to take out your eye out? Maybe it gets uncomfortable. To have an eggs benny. This eye also looks like it's got built-in blood vessels. Is that a thing with fake eyes? Oh, no. If I would get a fake eye, I'd get one like I just eyedropped.
Starting point is 00:36:38 No, you wouldn't want a crystal white, because then your other eye would look like a yellow red. Do they match you? Yeah. Yeah, but then sometimes I have a little bit of bloodshot, and then other other eye would look like a yellow, red... I wonder if they... Do they match you? Yeah. Yeah, but then sometimes I have, you know, like a little bit of bloodshot, and then other times I don't. I'm looking at your eyes now, and you do have bloodshot on both eyes, so it would look weird if one was, you know,

Starting point is 00:37:14 What's that called when you've got different colour eyes? It's hyper... Hyper... Glyke. Glyke. Because glyke is the medical for eye, right? Different coloured eyes. Huskies always have it. Glyke. Because glyke is the medical for eye, right? Different colour to eyes.
Starting point is 00:37:27 Huskies always have it. In the UK, privately, you will pay around £1,700 for a fake eye. In the USA, you'd pay $1,800. No. It's like three grand. Over three grand in New Zealand. Yeah. Heterochromia is where your irises are two different colours. If someone's got a fake eye.
Starting point is 00:37:45 What's homochromia? That would be the same, wouldn't it? Okay. Hot. Because that's what homos... Homo means like one. Yeah, right. So homosexuals, it's one gender.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Oh, right. Okay. One gender. Like the one gender, but hetero is right too, isn't it? I don't know. It sounds right. Homo chromia. Latin A.

Starting point is 00:38:30 I tell you what, when you see a smoker these days, every single one of them is loving smoking. He is enjoying it. You used to see some smokers who would just be smoking for something to do, but they're your vapers now. But when you see someone still doing an analogue vape, you know, the old dart, the old flaming back, they are loving it.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Every breath there, he's loving that. Like at the carnival, when you see an old boy running a carnival ride and he's smoking it's every single breath, it's pure, pure enjoyment. Good for him. Loving ciggies. East Auckland Grapevine. East Auckland Grapevine. East Auckland Grapevine.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Quite distracting how much they love that cigarette. It's really distracting because he's sitting so close to the window. Yeah. And doing that thing where literally like puff, okay, and now holding it in, breathing it out. Oh, there he goes. And cigarette's already back in the mouth for the next one.

Starting point is 00:39:48 Costume places are famously expensive for hiring a corn suit. What about a Look Sharp? Would they have a... They would have... I've seen, you know, in Look Sharp, they've got a very offensive range of... Very, like, I'm surprised there hasn't been
Starting point is 00:40:03 a spin-off expose into the racially offensive words that Look Sharp used to describe their costumes. Like there's a Pocahontas one that's like, little Indian girl. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:40:36 Oh, little kid one. Oh my god, this is peas, carrots, corn. That's pretty cool. It'd be embarrassing if you were the pea, because that would mean that you were a bit round. You know, like if it was the three of us, it would be like, okay, who should be the pea? I'd be peas in a pod. I'd be embarrassing if you were the pea because that would mean that you were a bit round. You know, like if it was the three of us, it would be like, okay, who should be the pea?

Starting point is 00:40:58 I think you'd sit peas. Straight out of a pod. Green's my colour too. To be honest, this next page, I think too many neighbourhoods in one group. Okay. Onehunga, Royal Oak, One Tree Hill Community Group. There's too many.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Too many. It's a bloody huge area. Kent writes, to the dog walker on Maridi Road that dropped your bags of dog shit into my empty wheelie bin. Not acceptable. One of the bags wasn't even tied off and now it's stinking out the bin.

Starting point is 00:41:51 Yeah, chucked it in. And I just chucked it in. Is that okay? Is that okay? Chuck it in. I'd prefer you chucked it in there than chucked it in the bin where it wouldn't get recycled. Or just on the ground. Normally I poke it down the drain.
Starting point is 00:42:02 You flatten them, don't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chuck them down the grate. Yeah, I know you can go. If, yeah. You chuck them down the grate. Yeah. Oh no, you can go, if it's one of those ones on the side of the road that's got a hole

But after two years, after a two-year hiatus, the World Gravy Wrestling Championships have returned.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Thank God. I didn't even know these were a thing. When they delayed the Olympics, obviously I was devastated. But when they delayed the World Gravy Wrestling Championships, I could barely get out of bed. Yeah. So it's fancy dress. It's wrestling in two-minute rounds.
Starting point is 00:44:56 A pub puts us on in Lancashire. Of course. And, yeah, it's back. And I tell you what, the photos, they don't skimp on the gravy. No. They look like.

Well, you should never skimp on gravy, regardless of what you're doing with it,
Starting point is 00:45:08 wrestling with it, covering a roast chook in it. You can never have... Chips in it. Yeah, you can never have too much gravy. What kind of gravy do they rock? Now, it doesn't say. I mean, it's obviously probably just a cheap bulk powder. Brown.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Brown mixed gravy. Whether or not it's a chicken, some of my favourite is like a chicken packet, if you have to make it from a packet. I like brown onion because it goes with every meat. Yeah, I like a rich brown. But you've got to use, if you're making a gravy at home, you've got to use the fatty juice that drips off
Starting point is 00:45:42 whatever you're cooking as an essential part of the gravy. Absolutely. Well, this is a former gravy wrestling champion explaining what it takes to be a champion of the gravy wrestling variety. When wrestling in gravy, what it takes to be champion is an ability not to worry about what you actually look like when you're doing it. You've just got to get in there. You get messy.
Starting point is 00:46:04 You get covered in it. It stinks. It gets in your eyes. You just grab onto your opponent and just hope for the best. I don't think I've ever had gravy in my eyes. No. Thick gelatinous. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Is it warm? No. Or is it cold? It would be cold. Ugh. You can see they've basically put up a big ring and they line it with like tarpaulin or plastic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:27 And then just fill it. So it's like jelly wrestling but with gravy. And I'm guessing there are pads. Yeah, it would. If you're watching on the side, can you dip your chips in it as they're wrestling? I don't know if I would dip my chips in this. No. Lots of sweaty dudes.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Any women doing it? Yeah, lots of, yeah, there's women doing it as well. Yep. Gravy would get everywhere too. Gravy would get in all your nocks and crannies. Yeah, in crevices. Gravy in the air.
Starting point is 00:46:52 It would stink for days. Yeah. Why? Why? Well, it's charity. Okay, there you go. There you go. So it's for a good cause.
Starting point is 00:47:01 For a good cause. Why are you wrestling in gravy? For a good cause. For a good cause. Why are you wrestling and graving? For a good cause. For a good cause. There is Southwest Airlines. I think it's quite a cheap little American airline. Yeah, it is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Sorry, I got a spicy broad bean just jammed in my throat there. You got a what? A spicy broad bean. I've been snacking on some spicy broad beans. Yeah, that's odd. It's like eating a Bouchard mix. It's like eating a Bouchard mix or a peanut mix. Yeah, they are.
Starting point is 00:47:33 They've got like a little crunch around the outside. Anyway, they jammed in my throat. It's an odd snack for this time of the morning. It truly is. It's an odd snack, full stop. Anyway, so Southwest Airlines, it was a flight flying from Minneapolis to Cabo in Mexico. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:50 People were going on holiday. It was a real holiday vibe on the plane. But then the pilot had to get on the intercom thing and tell people off. And he threatened. He said, I'm going to be turning this plane back around if you don't stop with this behavior. He said, we're going to have to get security involved. I'll pull back into the gate. They hadn't even taken off yet.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Right. Because he'd been informed that there were people on the plane airdropping nudes around the plane. That is wild. So just opening up their phone, going to, you know. More than one person. A nude. Yeah, it was sort of like circulating through this plane.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Was it spring break? They were going to Cabo, Mexico. No, it was not spring break at the moment. It was not spring. Unless it's an old story that's just, you know, surfaced. Maybe. Because you airdropped me something on the plane. And you didn't airdrop me back.
Starting point is 00:48:41 No, because I, and you were, how many rows back were you from me? Five? And I couldn't airdrop you back. No, because I, and you were, how many rows back were you from me? Five? And I couldn't airdrop you back. Oh, right. Because I was trying to reply. We were opening the text pad and writing to each other. Oh, yeah. Airdrop is really temperamental.
Starting point is 00:48:54 It is. You can open notes and you type in airdrop and they drop it back. It's got everything in there and you can just have a conversation. So, I mean, you could, in a plane, you could probably limit it to the five rows behind and in front, right? Yeah, but if you got more people involved, you know like you went from row
Starting point is 00:49:11 one to five and then row five sent it back to ten and then ten's getting you know, we're just shuffling this nude picture right down to the back. He said, yeah, he kept on saying whatever this airdrop thing is, it's gonna have to stop. And it had real sort of don't make me come back there kids vibe.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Because this person was, yeah, airdropping a nude. So it's a lot of countries have made this illegal. Singapore recently has made it illegal. Cyber flashing, which described on Wikipedia as involving sending obscene photos to strangers online, often done through airdrop or Bluetooth. Without consent. Without consent, yeah. Because you do kind of consent in a way because they send it and you have to say accept, right? Yes, but you do get an image.
Starting point is 00:49:57 You've had it. Someone's done this. Yeah, I've had it when someone tried to send me a photo and it says, like, this phone is trying to send you, is trying to airdrop you an image and you just decline it. Could you get a preview of the image?
Starting point is 00:50:09 No. I thought it does show you a preview. Is it like a blur thing? Oh, it's a blur. A bit of a curious kitty. Yeah, I would because I would just
Starting point is 00:50:17 want to do accept as well. I know. But then I'd have no problem like publicly outing them for it. Yeah, yeah. If it was their face I'd get up problem like publicly outing them for it. Yeah, yeah. If it was their face, I'd get up and I would look for them.
Starting point is 00:50:29 And then I would say, excuse me, everyone. The man in 27K has just sent me a photo. Of his doodle. Of his doodle. Yeah. With his face in it. And look, everybody. Who else wants a copy?
Starting point is 00:50:40 And look at it. It's a bit crooked. Yeah. I'd show it up and I'd walk up the aisles and I'd show everyone. And I know from my mole maps that that mole at the hilt, it needs to be checked. Yeah. But this is quite a common thing on like very busy tubes,
Starting point is 00:50:57 train stations, subways. Because you don't have to be, if you have your airdrop settings as everyone, so like you can receive airdrops from anyone and everyone, you don't have to know them or have their phone number or you just have to be within the vicinity of their phone. So this is what we wanted to ask this morning
Starting point is 00:51:13 is what did somebody airdrop you? Is this a bit of an impossible phone? I mean, it's happened to you. It could be. But I feel like it's more prevalent in countries with like subways and big... Subways, subways planes trains buses yeah your public transports all right well 0800 dials at him give us a call you can text as well 9696 maybe you've been at a busy bar yeah uh like yeah packed plane or train or bus did a stranger
Starting point is 00:51:38 airdrop you something well a pilot uh threatened to to turn the plane around or not take off if customers didn't stop airdropping naked photos of themselves, passengers to each other. They must have stopped because they made it on their trip, but we wanted to know what you have been airdropped by a stranger. And it turns out
Starting point is 00:51:59 there's no shortage of calls. Tia, good morning. You received an airdrop in public. Yes, I did. I was at the drifting event in Tauranga and I was waiting in line for food and I got an airdrop request and I showed my friend and she was like, accept it.
Starting point is 00:52:17 Accept it immediately. It was a photo of a very naked woman, spread legs and everything. Oh! Oh, Tia. a very naked woman um spread legs and everything oh yeah it wasn't it wasn't the person that sent the airdrop because they changed their name to a very naughty name oh okay gosh yeah so wait do you think they were trying to uh woo you or they just got the wrong person my friend turned around and she saw these like, I'd say about 19 year olds
Starting point is 00:52:48 like laughing and snickering. Oh my god, so immature. It was definitely a laughable moment but turn the brightness down on your phone if you're going to accept an airdrop photo.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Is everyone around you? See, that's the thing, I just accept because I'm so curious, I want to see what down on your phone if you're going to accept an airdrop photo. Is everyone around you? Yeah, yeah. I just accept because I'm so curious. I want to see what someone's sending. Oh, so will we. So will we. But no, it was a very odd photo to receive in line with a lot of children and people. Don't lie.
Starting point is 00:53:20 You've saved it. Well, 0800-DARZATM. Keep your calls coming in, your texts as well. 9696. When have you received a random airdrop in public? We want to know when you've been airdropped something randomly in public. It's a pest move. It is a real pest move.
Starting point is 00:53:36 It's either an immature lols move. That's really funny. Or a pest move. That is funny. Or sometimes people are just like, you know, really being inappropriate. But you can also airdrop like your phone number. Do you know what I mean? You can airdrop web, like web page links.
Starting point is 00:53:53 That's what somebody said. They went to a rugby game, like a big rugby game, big crowd. And teenagers were airdropping their Snapchat codes. Right. Like if they see someone hot. Just to anybody that'll accept it. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Otherwise, this person that messages us in is obviously a hottie and all the teens are trying to, like, get them on the Snapchat. So, yeah, there's lots of messages in. We were on a flight to Christchurch sending photos. There's multiple flights to Christchurch sending photos. There's multiple flight to Christchurch stories! There are multiple flight to Christchurch stories. I know. What one is she?
Starting point is 00:54:35 She was the menace. No, see, I'm talking to someone who was on the receiving end of the menace. I'm just listening. Thank you for trusting a seasoned broadcaster. I'm just here to listen and follow. For those listening, Vaughn gets in a lot of trouble for reading out numbers that the producers have got calls lined up for.
Starting point is 00:54:51 They've called some people. But that's not what's happening here. And Vaughn always reads out the numbers, doesn't he? He always reads out the texts and ruins the calls. No. Flight to Christchurch and a young man sent me a photo of his entire situation. That is quite a ballsy move. Here it is.
Starting point is 00:55:07 Very ballsy. It was taken on the plane. He didn't have this waiting. It wasn't a pre... Wait, how do you... This wasn't premeditated. He didn't have it in the wings ready to send. He might have nipped to the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:55:19 Right. Oh, right, okay. Goodness me. You wouldn't flop it out. You wouldn't just flop it out in the seat. Mid-flopping out trying to take a picture and would you like a cookie time or a cassava chips? Oh, my Lord.
Starting point is 00:55:31 The cassava chips it will be. Oh, me oh my. Aileen, good morning. What happened? Hi. So I was at a birth centre and I'd just given birth to my daughter. Yeah. And my husband got an airdrop notification and was like,
Starting point is 00:55:48 oh, okay, this is random. Like, I'll just accept it. Oh, no. And it was the family next door at the birth centre had sent through their, like, newborn pics to my husband. What? And he was like, this is awkward. Like, what am I doing?
Starting point is 00:56:03 Wait, not... It's a picture of your new fresh baby. But not the birth happening. Nah, not the birth happening. Oh, my goodness. So they must have been, what, sharing photos with the group around them and accidentally sent to your husband. This is why people don't name their phones.
Starting point is 00:56:23 You've got to name your phone. Some people just leave an iPhone, and then there's like four iPhones. You're like, which one am I sending to? Do you think it was a mistake, or they knew that you'd had a fresh baby, they've got a fresh baby, and they thought, like, our baby's better than that. They'll want to see their baby. They'll want to see what a 10 out of 10 baby looks like. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:42 Oh, cute little nine over there, but we've got a 10. Katie, you were also on a flight to Christchurch. I wasn't. But you were the pest. Well, I don't know. You're a pest. Katie, the pest. Now, what were you sending other passengers?
Starting point is 00:57:00 I was sending very cute pictures of my cat. Okay. Now, is that an analogy? Because there was a boy who was sending pictures of my cat. Okay. Is that an analogy? Because there was a boy who was sending pictures of his snake. No. What part of your cat? My cat's butthole. What?
Starting point is 00:57:14 Is he sending your cat's butthole to people? It's the most offensive part of the cat, and they love showing it. They do. Exactly. How many people were accepting this on this flight? So we started off sending pictures of my sister, like childhood photos that we had of her. It was like a girl's trip with kids that we'd all grown up with.
Starting point is 00:57:32 And so we had like all these funny childhood photos and nobody was accepting them. Right. And so I was like, oh, well, I've got a funny photo. And I did that and it got accepted by like three different people. And I was playing to the crowd. Does Airdrop, I thought Airdrop did give you a little preview. Yeah was playing to the crowd. Does airdrop, I thought airdrop
Starting point is 00:57:46 did give you a little preview. Yeah, I thought it does. Definitely, it gives you a little preview. Yeah. But is it like blurred out? Yeah, you can't see it
Starting point is 00:57:54 like exactly. It's probably got AI so if it sees that it's a Rudy picture, it might blur it out. Yeah. I'd like to clarify as well, the only reason
Starting point is 00:58:04 I have that photo is because I got an unsolicited DP one time, so I sent that back. That's the only reason I have the photo to begin with. Right, so was this unsolicited DP, was that on Airdrop as well? No, that was unrelated. Let's get into it.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Who was it? How did it look? Katie, thanks for your call. Some more messages in. Let's get into it Let's get into it Who was it? Who was it? How did it look? Katie thanks You call some more messages in Anne messaged on Instagram Saying I was walking down Lampton Cairn A stranger airdropped me An eggplant pit
Starting point is 00:58:33 Mortifying Oh my god Mortifying Michelle said I once received While I was at the night market A photo of a llama A completely unsolicited llama
Starting point is 00:58:44 You don't send other people Your llama While on the subway In New York City I once received, while I was at the night market, a photo of a llama. A completely unsolicited llama. You don't send out the people, you llama. While on the subway in New York City, someone airdropped me the picture of the weed they were trying to sell on the subway. So you could, if you were interested, you could obviously message them back and acquire some mara fish llama. You gotta hustle, you know?
Starting point is 00:59:02 Yeah. Somebody said, when I worked at Disney, whenever there was a big line for anything, people would go on Airdrop. That Airdrop memes and non-spicy content, that's wholesome. That's wholesome stuff. Wholesome stuff. A teacher has messaged in saying,
Starting point is 00:59:15 we currently have a situation at the school. It's a mystery penis being Airdropped around school. We call it penis gate. No one is safe. A mystery one. A mystery penis. Yeah. There's only one way To identify it isn't there
Starting point is 00:59:25 You line them all up I will just Drop trowels You might have missed The crucial word here At school You're gonna go up And go
Starting point is 00:59:34 Nope And do a side by side I think that's problematic Hayley Well how else Are you gonna do it That's why you got Kicked off the board
Starting point is 00:59:41 Of trustees Well you have to get Every student To send one in. And then you find the culprit. You match it up. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM.
Starting point is 01:00:00 We would say that I'll give Gen Z this. I'll give Gen Z this. From one millennial to a pack of Gen Zs. Yeah. They won't listen. I know they won't listen. They won't listen, they don't care. So entitled.
Starting point is 01:00:12 They won't listen. They don't want to listen. But they would be the generation, I think, who have been really, well, one of the generations, I reckon, maybe the kids as well, but who have been really impacted by the pandemic. Yeah. Like it's stuffed up a lot of their good years, their uni years,
Starting point is 01:00:28 their party years, that kind of stuff. Their real social time. The last year of high school. Such a crucial year, you know. How many wonderful movies have been made about the coming of age of seniors of high school. The night before graduation, you know. A little smirch under the old clock tower. of age of seniors of high school. Graduation, the night before graduation, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:45 A little smirch under the old clock tower. But you did just say moments ago your most hated generation. Because they're boring. Wow, okay, shots fired.
Starting point is 01:00:54 They're just a bit boring for me. I don't know, they're so sort of good and like, sort of like, they're a bit kitsch, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:01 and they're sort of like cute as opposed to like, ruckus. Right. I reckon millennials, I'm a millennial, I reckon we were a bit kitsch, you know, and they're sort of like cute as opposed to like ruckus. Right. I reckon millennials, I'm a millennial, I reckon we were a bit ruckus. You reckon the best? We were a bit more chaotic. Yeah. And risky. The 90s were insane. The late 90s were real
Starting point is 01:01:17 dumb. Like dumb stuff happened all the time and we were just like, ah yeah. We were like, ha ha, that's crazy. But in saying that, they're ram raiding. But that's a small percentage of it. I didn't see you guys ram raiding in your youth. No, but I would say, is that Gen Z or is that the sort of next below? The next one. Because they're kind of kids that are ram raiding.
Starting point is 01:01:36 Yeah, that's true. The Gen Z is like early 20s who are, you know, doing like booze free yoga dates. Yeah. Snapchat stre dates. Yeah. Snapchat streaks. Yeah, not for me. If the most exciting thing going on in your life is a Snapchat streak when you're in your early 20s. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:54 Yeah. I mean, this is coming from a very, very boring man, but even I had a raucous early 20s. I did all my things, all of it in these early 20s. Well, now they've given up hook-up culture. Right, just over it. I'm sorry. I've had enough!
Starting point is 01:02:10 But that would be the pandemic, right? So they're saying because of the pandemic, they lost those years of being able to go out. But they weren't going out anyway. Like, for me, my early 20s was like, I used to hit to clubs. Yeah. I'd hit to clubs and then I'd hit someone else. You sound like an absolute boomer talking about the good old days.
Starting point is 01:02:31 They were the good old days. Courtney Place, man, I used to take off my shoes and walk home all the way to Newtown afterwards. Oh, no, don't do that. With Harry. Who's Harry? You're about to find out who Harry is. But, yeah, they're over it.
Starting point is 01:02:44 And they say that the pandemic was like totally reset their thinking of like what their values are. And like how they value their time. Oh, give me strength. And their interactions that they want to have. That's a good thing, right? It is a good thing. Look in the mirror. If you're this age, look in the mirror.
Starting point is 01:03:01 It's not getting better than that. It's not. That's quite a grim assessment. It's not getting better than that. It's not. That's quite a grim assessment. It's not getting better than that. I look at photos of me at 20. Oh, my God. Yeah, and when you're that age and you're like, oh, my God, I look like shit.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Yeah. Trying to constantly tuck everything in. Yeah, you don't. It's going to get harder in 10 years. You're going to have to work a whole lot harder to look that good. Yeah, right. And then in 10 more years after that from someone who's there at the moment, you've given up. It's too hard.
Starting point is 01:03:30 So they're all about like they're meeting up for booze-free dates with like up-front connections where they want to say, you know, what they want and then anyone who doesn't meet that, they're out of there. And even the idea of like hookup culture,
Starting point is 01:03:48 like they're going back to like the more conservative way of like many, many dates and then maybe a kiss. Good Lord. Good luck with that. All right. Young Hayley. Next on the show at the social media desk, Carl Wayne had a moral conundrum yesterday.
Starting point is 01:04:08 Yeah, see, she's a Gen Z-er. She's a do-good. I'll tell you what we would have done with this moral conundrum next. ZM. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Well, Carl Wayne at the social media desk had a real moral conundrum. She was telling us this morning,
Starting point is 01:04:27 and I think all of us would have gone the other way on this. 100%. In fact, I have in the past. Really? Yeah. I didn't want to say it at the time, but you know what? I'm opening up today. Did you see how horrified that Gen Z was when you said that?
Starting point is 01:04:42 Gen Z, so, like, righteous. Sorry I wanted to do the right thing. And goody two shoes. Yeah. No, so this, I think you did do the right thing because you ordered a, what, a necklace? Yeah. Was it a necklace?
Starting point is 01:04:55 Yeah, off of my favourite place, Marketplace. Okay. Back in early June. Was it a large, you know, that we talked about this being back in fashion. Statement necklace. Statement necklace. Was it sort of a large know, that we talked about this being back in fashion? Statement necklace. Statement necklace. Was it sort of a large
Starting point is 01:05:07 orange plastic thing? No, pearl necklace with some stuff on it. Oh, classy. Karen Walker. Karen Walker pearl. I know, I know. Goodness me.
Starting point is 01:05:16 Karen Walker's actually a really good friend of mine. You should have just told me. She picks the pearls herself. Are you telling me this now? She does, yeah. She picks the pearls herself. She got her
Starting point is 01:05:23 paddy dive certificate so she can go to Fiji. Yeah, she does.. She picks the pearls herself. She got her paddy dive certificate. Out of the ocean. So she can go to Fiji. Yeah, she does. And she picks the pearls herself. Amazing woman. Amazing. With the price then, for sure.
Starting point is 01:05:31 Yeah. Yes. So, okay, so this was someone getting rid of it on Marketplace. Yeah. And after about three weeks, it hadn't shown up. I was like, I've either been scammed or it's lost in the mail. So the girl who sold it to me got in touch with NZ Post. They were like
Starting point is 01:05:50 yep, soz, it's lost. Here's a refund. Those exact words from New Zealand Post? New logo, new attitude. Yeah, they're pretty chill these days. Yo, soz. Yo, soz, what up? Soz, lost.
Starting point is 01:06:02 Being run by Gen Z actually. No cap. Yeah, we'll put no cap on this package. So they gave her a refund, which she very kindly gave back to me. Because obviously I was out of pocket. Yeah. So wait, when you send something in the mail, if it gets lost, they'll refund you? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:19 I did not know that. I didn't know this either. But apparently if you have proof that you posted it and stuff. Yeah. Okay. And so I just gave up on that idea, whatever. Yesterday I got an email saying, your package is going to be delivered today. I was like, I haven't ordered anything.
Starting point is 01:06:35 Yeah. Went to the tracking and it said that it was from June. And I was like, I was telling Anna, I was telling Georgia. Oh my gosh, what if it's the necklace? Yeah. I get home, it's the necklace. It's the necklace. From like what, four weeks later?
Starting point is 01:06:49 No, from June. June. Oh my God, yeah, okay. That's two months late. Yeah. So I guess it was just- Where was it? Maybe at the bottom of the pile of packages?
Starting point is 01:06:58 That's what they reckon at the moment. Yeah, the warehousing and if there's a day where like half the staff are sick, it just piles up and then they just get to it when they get to it. So it arrived. And here is where your conundrum starts because... You've got the money back. The woman refunded you. Yes.
Starting point is 01:07:16 But okay, here's the other part of the conundrum. This isn't a multinational company. Yes, exactly. This is just a woman who bought this necklace and then sold it. Yes. And obviously she'd been very lovely this necklace and then sold it. Yes. And obviously she'd been very lovely in like sorting out that it was lost and like giving me the money back. So I was like, I need to let her know.
Starting point is 01:07:34 So I messaged her. You didn't need to. Wait, before you let her know, did you run this past the devil and angel on your shoulder? I sent a few messages to a few friends. You didn't check me. I'm moral compass due north. I feel like you would have said keep it. No.
Starting point is 01:07:49 I would have said keep it if it was a company. Yes. Like a big multinational company that earns bajillions of dollars. Yeah. Who cares? They can write that off. But no, I think you did the right thing giving it back. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:00 Well. You told the lady. I told her and then she was like, oh, just give me this much for it, which was less than what I'd originally paid. Wait, so you ended up profiting? Not profiting. Everybody ended up profiting. So you just got the necklace for way cheaper. A little cheaper. Well, she didn't end up
Starting point is 01:08:15 profiting because she wanted to sell it for whatever price. Wait, but you've ripped her off. No, because she said, you know what? Honesty deserves rewarding. Oh, is she Gen Z? This is a couple of saps. This is a couple of saps over here. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 01:08:30 I think it was lovely. Do you want to come to my youth group on Sunday? Have a shot of tequila. Oh, my God. Why the yes? Jeez Louise. You two should have met in public and fought with your fists. Yes.
Starting point is 01:08:41 We need to see a bit more mongrel from Gen Z. We're pulling out each other's hair extensions. Oh, my God. I'm sorry if I offended you. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. So wait, before we get to fact of the day, it appears that we just heard from Carl Wayne. I assumed I missed the, I assumed the part that everybody's messaging about happened, it just wasn't mentioned.
Starting point is 01:08:59 However, it didn't happen. So it turns out Carl Wayne, who we thought had done the good thing, has actually been ripped off in this necklace. So now I think Carween, who we thought had done the good thing, has actually been ripped off in this necklace purchase. Step through it. Step through it. Okay, so let's redo it how we just worked it out then.
Starting point is 01:09:14 Physically. Hayley, you be Carween. I'm Carween. You be person selling necklace, who now I believe is a scamming millennial, not a pushover. Now wait, this necklace was $75, wasn't it? I wasn't going to say that, but yes. Okay, it was $75. I'm New Zealand Post.
Starting point is 01:09:29 I'm New Zealand Post. I've got a new logo. So I've got this necklace that I bought for more than $75, but I'm going to get rid of it. $75. Carwen, you buy it off me. My name is Carwen. Here's $75.
Starting point is 01:09:39 I would like the necklace, please. Okay, I'm sending it to you. Hi, I'm New Zealand Post. I'll be delivering that necklace from you to her. Thank you very much. Two months later, the necklace still hasn't turned up. So you've got 75 bucks. I've got no money and no necklace.
Starting point is 01:10:01 So Wayne then contacts Sala. Hey, the necklace hasn't turned up. Oh my God, I'm so sorry. Let me ring New Zealand Post. Ring, ring. Ooh, hello.
Starting point is 01:10:11 The necklace is missing. Give me $75. Goobly-doobly-doo. I've got a new logo and I play fast and loose now. So now that the post gives you money. I'll give you your money.

Starting point is 01:10:38 We found the necklace. Oh, my gosh. Well, now that I've got the necklace, I'll let the woman know, hey, the necklace turned up. Here's more money. So what has she got? How much money has she got out of this? I don't want to tell you.
Starting point is 01:10:54 So you gave her, let's say, $50. Yeah, it was $50. So let's say, so now you've given her $125. She's done it. This necklace is gone. She's got the money from New Zealand Post. New Zealand Post, find the necklace, give it to Carwin. Transaction complete. Carwin's like, do you want more money?
Starting point is 01:11:13 Oh my god. You jinxed that sack. I never said maths was my strong point. Why did you give her money back? I didn't think about the fact that she would have had the original money. And then she goes that line on you. And then she said, okay, I'll charge you a little bit less
Starting point is 01:11:30 because honesty deserves reward. Oh, my God. Hey, maybe she's just like me. Neither of us can do maths. You need to take some time. Somebody needs to give the taxpayer. Ask her for her money back. Send her this audio.
Starting point is 01:11:44 Tell her a GDX and two shitty millennials are going to give the taxpayer. Ask her for her money back. Send her this audio. You didn't know. Tell her a geniex and two shitty millennials are going to come for her. Hey, random stranger, I talked about you on the radio. Give me my money back. Yeah. Well, surely a New Zealand post should ask for some money back. No, do you see? All right, it's time for fact of the the Day, Day, Day, Day, Day.
Starting point is 01:12:07 Yeah. Today's Fact of the Day is about catfish. But the actual fish that the catfishing, the verb, is named after. Are these the ones that people get in the river and they put their arm up in the hole? Noodlin'. You go noodlin' for catfish. Wild. People drown doing that.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Yeah, because they put their arm in and it's a 200-pound catfish and they're 100 pounds and the catfish is like, you're mine now. Yeah. No, thank you. So the reason, if you don't know, catfishing is called catfishing is because in the original documentary on MTV, which was about when the guy who hosted the MTV
Starting point is 01:12:52 show, he got catfished. Yeah. When they meet this woman who catfished him, her husband is just this like profound philosopher redneck. And he's like, when we used to catch fish and we'd have to take them from Alaska to Japan,
Starting point is 01:13:11 by the time they got there, they'd be turned to mush. So we used to chuck a catfish in and it would chase the fish around the tank and keep them fit and alive and healthy till they got there. Because these fish would get put in a tank and they'd just be like, oh, that's us.
Starting point is 01:13:26 Yeah, I'm giving up now. And give up. And they'd be mush and their muscles would all deteriorate. So these catfish keep people on their toes, basically. So keep them fit. Yeah. That original documentary that made that TV is incredible.
Starting point is 01:13:40 It's so good. Yeah. It's so good. So it's about these catfish. Yeah. And it comes to us from Indonesia, where aid agencies and governments and everything, after natural disasters,
Starting point is 01:13:54 Indonesia was heavily affected by the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami. Yeah. It was often that while everything was getting back on its feet, you've got to have someone to do your poos and your wees. Yeah. Of course, you just have to. So often latrines were set up or like temporary sewage systems were set up
Starting point is 01:14:12 and they obviously start to smell after a little while because they don't have everything in a modern day. They don't have a system, does it? Yeah, it just kind of sits there for a while and then you hope the bad stuff settles to the bottom and then the cleaner stuff trickles over. It's a bit like being have a system, does it? Yeah, it just kind of sits there for a while and then you hope the bad stuff settles to the bottom and then the cleaner stuff trickles over. It's a bit like being at a festival, camping or at a, yeah. So this could work at a festival
Starting point is 01:14:32 because one day they noticed catfish in the latrine. Oh. Yeah, yucky. Oh, those poor fish. No, they love it. So it became like this thing. They were like, what is this catfish doing? And they noticed where the catfish were in the latrine,
Starting point is 01:14:48 the water was way clearer. And catfish, like oysters and bivalve shellfish, actually have this filtration situation going on. So you're saying it like R&V. They should put catfish in all the port-a-boos. But what if they nip at your bum bum? No, because of the chemicals. It can't have chemicals in it.
Starting point is 01:15:07 It's got to be a clean, it does have a flushing system. It's just got to be water that goes in there. No toilet paper. They don't do the toilet paper. No, they don't in a lot of Southeast Asian countries. Oh, yeah. The Western world's obsessed with toilet paper, but everywhere else they just have a splash or a hoon on one of those high-pressure hoses,
Starting point is 01:15:24 which head at the right angle, you'll fill up like a water balloon. Oh, I know. Make sure to sort of clench a bit, because otherwise... You should be clenching when you're hosing. Yeah, you don't want to be... Well, I mean, you're on holiday. Taking a big breath out.
Starting point is 01:15:40 Yeah, I mean, I don't know. The douching tool's right there, you might as well give it a blast. You've heard all about it. Just be careful. Not everybody's colon and bowel is as leathery and thick as mine. So you might do yourself an injury. But otherwise, just water and down.
Starting point is 01:15:57 And so they started putting catfish. And then they talked to people in Indonesia, like people who were still living in villages where they didn't have latrines, and they said, oh, yeah, this is kind of known in the area, freshwater catfish. You kind of set up your business away from where you live, obviously, because it still smells. But then you get some fingerlings, which maybe that's where fish fingers
Starting point is 01:16:22 come from, small catfish, and you put them in the septic tank and they they eat it you should put some in your septic tank nah cause we've got like detergents detergents and stuff
Starting point is 01:16:33 right it would kill them it would kill them I think I think I can't find anywhere but I think it needs to be a bit more open
Starting point is 01:16:39 oh yeah not a closed septic tank yeah not one that's literally you have to dig down three feet to take a huge concrete lid off to get into. Yeah, right. Don't put a catfish in there.
Starting point is 01:16:48 Yeah. And the catfish can be eaten. No, thank you. At the end of it. But you have to take them out and place them in flowing water for some time to make sure they're complete. Oh, as if. Eating my pooey catfish.
Starting point is 01:17:01 As if. It's a circle of life. So may I ask you, what is the fish of the day? It's septic tank catfish. Served on a bed of rice with a delicious wheeze sauce. A wheeze. A wheeze. A wheeze.
Starting point is 01:17:22 A wheeze. So today's fact of the day is In Indonesia you chuck a couple of catfish in your septic tank Fact of the day Day day day day Yeah Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. In the middle of the night, I'm wide awake. I crave your face.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM. We're renovating at the moment and the work has finally begun. Like the actual tearing down of the house has started. Fun. Yeah, it's really fun. It's really fun. We started in the kitchen the other day.
Starting point is 01:18:08 Oh, we've done some ripping up of carpet and whatnot. Yeah. And the other day, yesterday, we started in the kitchen removing all the cabinetry because that's gone. Yep. And the things you find out from the previous owners, I have to say, like, he'd obviously installed it, this guy. We've found some real surprises from him like diy wiring that set our walls on fire and just little treats like
Starting point is 01:18:31 that we're like oh she's really made this up and he's like wedged everything together with like scraps of like core flute and oh cowboys that's the best part about pulling apart a house is just finding some cowboy behavior and then you'd be like, some of it's nailed, some of it's screwed, some of it's glued. You're like, oh God. Wow. Anyways, but the bit that we're looking at at the moment is 144 years old.
Starting point is 01:18:54 So the walls are very old. Oh my God, did you find some treasure? No treasure. So we were removing this bit, we'd pulled out the cabinetry and then there was a bit exposed because they didn't even like jib the wall where the cabinets were against. They just went up against the raw hessian of the walls.
Starting point is 01:19:12 It's a very old house. But then we were like trying to, all this dust and stuff was falling out and we were like, oh, that looks like nests. Like bird nests. And when we cleaned out the roof. In the wall, it's not a bird Well, I know it's not a bird because what else I found
Starting point is 01:19:30 was pretty gross We were like digging in to try to get it out all this like nesty stuff and we were like, oh man, that's so gross like fluff and then out comes, and I send it to the group chat and I was nervous because I thought that Carween would absolutely hate it but I sent it anyway.
Starting point is 01:19:46 It was like a perfect... Well, they've been a very sensitive generation when you show them a skeleton. Oh, they are. They're like, aww. It was like a perfectly sort of, would you call it mummified? Yeah. Like a mummified rat. Ratty, ratty,
Starting point is 01:20:01 ratty. How old would that be? I don't know. Who knows? Because it's not just a skeleton. Yeah, once it skins, like not skin anymore, it's just paper on top, it's hard to tell. It looks like sort of, yeah. It's quite big too, isn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:15 No, it was like, it was not too big. I think it was a little baby. Still, that's too big for me. But it's like perfectly, he's not like, or squashed or squished or anything. What do you think he died peacefully in his sleep? Just sort of sitting in the walls. Right.
Starting point is 01:20:29 He just came like tumbling out and I was like, ooh, but then I was kind of like marvelling because it's not fluffy or like rotten. He's beyond. I don't know. I don't know his journey. You know, I don't know his journey. He didn't leave the captain's log. Thankfully, it's not.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Some people do this, don't they? And they find skeletons, like human remains. Yeah, human remains in the walls. Didn't that happen in Mount Eden like a year or two ago? No, it was under. Under the floorboards. Under the floorboards. Under the house.
Starting point is 01:20:53 We're pulling up some floorboards soon. Well, who knows what you'll find under there. Hopefully not a person. But I want to know what you've found in your walls. Because this happens often that people find little trinkets or memories. Or we've found photos before. Yeah, because I feel like this was a thing a lot of people
Starting point is 01:21:09 did back in the day but I don't feel people do enough now. No. You know like people find newspapers and cars were $60 and houses were $100. Yeah, yeah. And you're just like, oh the good old days. The good old days. Yeah. You also earned like a penny a day. Yeah. Whatever it was.
Starting point is 01:21:25 But yeah, I want to know what you found in your walls, be it gross or fascinating. I want to know what you have found in your walls. Maybe you've been doing some work in your house or maybe you just sort of fell through the wall. You found a mummified skeleton of a rat yesterday. It's sort of more than the skeleton, isn't it? It is mummified. Rachel, what did you find? Um, I really
Starting point is 01:21:48 every night I'd hear this like rippeting and there was a live frog that was in my wall. A live frog? It's a rippeting. How did it get in there? I have no idea. But it just it was, it tormented, the other kids
Starting point is 01:22:04 tormented me every night. And so my dad went and we tried to get someone to find out how to get in it, but we couldn't. So they just stuffed more drywall and insulation in it. So there's probably a dead frog in the wall now. A dead frog. A dead frog. It was live.
Starting point is 01:22:22 The question has to be asked, how does a live frog get, there's a hole somewhere. There's holes somewhere. There's a hive somewhere. For that long in here. Rachel thinks he calls the messages in. What if it was a bird that picked up a tadpole out of a pond and was flying and let it go just at the right angle and there was a tiny little gap and the tadpole slipped through
Starting point is 01:22:38 and then turned into a frog in the wall? Could be. Could be, Vaughn. Could be. Wouldn't that need water? Or can tadpoles survive outside it? It might be damp in the water. It might be a 2000s, you know, glass of Bordheim.
Starting point is 01:22:47 It could be a leak with a small puddle in the corner. Yeah. It had everything it needed in there. Sure. The flies would come in. It would eat the flies. Sure. Just saying.
Starting point is 01:22:55 Tell you what a few people have found in the wall. Old VHS with adult material. Really? A few messages about that. Really? Adrian, you found some naughty material as well. Yeah, I recently helped my mate line his feelings and walls in his house.
Starting point is 01:23:14 And he found some indoor gardening magazines from 2004. So, from 2004. Vintage. Vintage, yeah. I've got lots of thin eyebrows. There's a guy that was around in 2004. The magazines were done by then. Yeah, it was a lot.
Starting point is 01:23:30 2004 was like very big fake boobies. Right, that was a, yeah, fake boobie era. Yeah, fake boobie era, thin eyebrows. And I tell you what, someone probably would have had an inappropriate bindi on. Yeah, chicks and bindis. Before Gwen Stefani was rocking a bindi. She wouldn't do that now, would she?
Starting point is 01:23:48 Adrienne, thanks for your call. All right, keep your texts, your calls coming through. What have you found in the walls? What's in the walls? What's in the walls? We want to know what you have found in your walls. I found a perfectly mummified rat. Rat baby, maybe?
Starting point is 01:24:02 Yeah, but any maybe bigger surprises, any treasure? Monique, what did you find? Oh, well, it wasn't me. It was my husband, and he loved to find treasure as well. So we've been renovating our house for a little while now and always wants to find treasures. But he was doing my daughter's room and lifted the wall and out fell all these wasps and bees.
Starting point is 01:24:22 Oh, no. And he set them down and he trapped himself. Yeah, yeah. That's not treasureps and bees. Oh no. That's not treasure. I'd burn it. So he took off outside and he's waiting outside to see the swarm from the window. Oh no. It's going to get me.
Starting point is 01:24:38 I would have burnt the house down. There's no way I could have dealt with that. No way. Nothing came out so he's like, okay, I'll go inside. So he pulled the rest of the wool. And there was this beautiful big paper wasp nest between the nogs. Yeah, so it looked really intricate and beautiful. We got the kids they could take at the school because you could see all the little, like,
Starting point is 01:24:59 you know, spew-ups of them putting all the paper on. Wow. That was beautiful. But no treasure. No treasure. No treasure. Just was funny to see. Yeah, but no treasure. No treasure. No treasure. Just wasps. Monique, thanks for your call.
Starting point is 01:25:09 Sarah, what did you find in the walls? Well, when we were renovating our old house, we found in the cabinetry, we pulled it out, a packet of unused condoms from the 1950s. Oh! What did they look like in the 1950s? Very similar? Well, no, they were kind of, there was just two in a packet. It was a paper packet,
Starting point is 01:25:33 and then it was just two unwrapped rubber condoms. Because they're unraveled, eh? Yeah, well, no, they were rolled up in kind of an oval shape, but by that stage they were so brittle. Did you give them a guy? Yeah. I think they might have disintegrated. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:52 Wow, okay. From the 50s, right? Sarah, thank you. Messages in. So many finds. I'll tell you what. Somebody said my husband's a builder, and he just said it's very common practice for builders
Starting point is 01:26:01 to draw C and B inside the wall before they put the interior jib on. Oh yeah. God, you'd be livid. We found a cell phone inside. Do you reckon a builder left it there? They've been listening to you. Apparently it was our last tenant before we renovated it.
Starting point is 01:26:19 He was married but this was his phone he used for Tinder and texting other ladies. Oh, you naughty boy. But how did he have a little flap to get in there or something? Must have had a way of getting it in there. Oh, wow. Yeah. Found an old newspaper from 1966, the whole thing, the whole situation with a note that
Starting point is 01:26:37 said this is what the day that we put this wall up looked like. Oh, that's cool. Yeah, I'm going to do something like that. Yeah, people should do that more. Something less flammable though. Unless, of course, yeah, I was going to say that ignites a cool. Yeah, I'm going to do something like that. Yeah, people should do that more. Something less flammable, though. Unless, of course, yeah, I was going to say that ignites a fire. Yeah. We found 23 bird remains.
Starting point is 01:26:51 We counted the skulls and lined them up and counted them. 23 birds were found in that wall space. God, in New Zealand and its leaky, drafty home problem, eh? No, but the birds would have been adding a bit of warmth, a bit of stuffing in the walls. Oh, yeah. So you're saying like... It is very warm, aren't they?
Starting point is 01:27:05 You put them in your duvet. It's quite good. When I was an apprentice electrician, I pulled a wall and then something thunked out and I was like, oh, that sounded like it was big. Whatever it was, it was a mummified cat. Oh.
Starting point is 01:27:20 Because they do, they go all the way to die, don't they? They crawl into the wall. How do they get into the wall? They can get into little spots for sure. I found a tiny bottle of whiskey in mum and dad's new house when I was renovating it behind the wall. Also a packet of chocolate biscuits from before my time that had fallen behind a wooden revolving corner unit in their kitchen.
Starting point is 01:27:38 Oh, okay. Jeez. My sister found $5,000 under the fireplace when they were doing renos. That's drug money. Or someone that doesn't like banks. No, they had owned the house for 10 years and didn't have contact with a previous owner, so they just used that money on the renos. Here's one that probably led to a family meeting being called.
Starting point is 01:27:57 My parents had lived in the same house for 43 years. When they moved out, they had changed a couple of things and found $9,000 in that house. A mix of European and US currency. They put Euro, but surely that meant just European currencies, right? Not the Euro. Because, yeah, if they don't have it for 43 years and there's $9,000 Euro, someone put that up there. Wow.
Starting point is 01:28:19 Yeah, and they never found out who? Yeah. Maybe I'll do that. Like put something cryptic in the walls that makes you go, oh, what is this? Like quarter of a pirate map. Quarter of a pirate map and like a bag of icing sugar. Yeah, that would mess with people. Oh, my God, vintage cocaine.
Starting point is 01:28:39 You're like, no, no, it's Chelsea icing sugar. Well, if you enjoyed that, give us a rating and review and be sure to tell your mates. You know what? I reckon your script reading is getting better. Thank you. I give it five stars. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:28:54 Just like I'd give this podcast. I'm telling my friends about your script reading too. Thank you. Much like I'm going to do about this podcast. Thank you, Vaughan and Hayley, for that. Good boy.
