It'll be like, oh, it hasn't been dispatched yet, and then it's at your door. Well, mine's in New Zealand now, presented to customs,
Starting point is 00:01:09 customs cleared, and then customs cleared again. So a couple of people have had a little forage around. It is a powder, so they might have thought. Yeah, right. The dogs will have had a couple of sniffs of that. And then transferred to partner carrier. Does that mean it's with the courier? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Yeah, it'll be close. And then I'll get, I'll carry a view more tracking Do you reckon we'll ever get to the stage where Air tags, like trackers like that Are so cheap That they can just put them on a package And so you'll actually be able to see your dot Wherever it is in the world
Starting point is 00:01:36 Yeah That would be cool It's a bit stalkery though For the safety of the courier drivers Oh yeah, trying to think about that You know what I mean? Yeah Or yeah, you could rob the van

Starting point is 00:02:19 Someone's in my car park. There's a blue Honda in your car park. I said immediately tow them. Yeah, you're ruthless. Because I'm ruthless. Yeah, I'm a soft touch. You're an absolute walkover. You're a doormat.
Starting point is 00:02:31 That's why they're parking in your car park. Because they say, who would tow me? Not Vaughan Smith. He's too nice. He's a nice guy. He's a nice guy. 2017 Honda CR-V. Blue, two-wheel drive, touring 1.5 litre.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Did you just car jam this? I was going to say you need to do that. I do. I love car jamming. If you don't know what car jam is, carjam.co.nz. If you ever see a car and you're like, what kind of car is that? And you can Google the number plate, it'll tell you the make and model. But not the owner.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Does it tell you the owner and the address? No. You can pay more. Yeah. Oh, really? My dad used to have to do this. We ran a finance company. To see if there was money
Starting point is 00:03:08 owing on cars. To see if there's money owing on cars. Yeah, or if you ever see like an abandoned car, you do it and someone might have reported that car stolen
Starting point is 00:03:14 so then you can ring 10-5 or Star 555 and say, I've seen a car that's been reported stolen. Huh? Oh. Yeah, but just,
Starting point is 00:03:23 I don't know who had the sheer audacity. She had his sheer audacity. Because this is a weekend hangover, I reckon. How much is it to pay Car Jam to find the owner? God, that would be the ultimate stalking tool, wouldn't it? Yeah, we could do. We could do a full investigation. Ownership history, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Four owners in New Zealand. Two owners excluding dealers. So this car's been do a full investigation. Ownership history, yeah. Four owners in New Zealand. Two owners excluding dealers. So this car's been in a dealer twice. Yeah, but to get the name, how much does that cost? Hold on, I'll click it. We could all chip in. We'd do a whip around. Yeah, just because I really want to find out whose it is now. I think justice should be served. New Zealand history in money owings,

Dog and Lemon Review, not interested. $250,000 ownership guarantee. The ownership guarantee. What does it want the name? Hebro provides a guarantee to you that the vehicle will not be repossessed. Okay, so not that one.
Starting point is 00:04:13 So it must be the top one. $14.75. Kyle, we can do that. We'll chip in $14.75. Yeah, I'll chip in. Yeah, ownership history. Yeah, but just tow them. It's free.

Starting point is 00:04:33 Flicked in my message Because There was one car park Left on the road And I drove in Saw my car park was Full so I backed out And someone snaked into it
Starting point is 00:04:42 So I was like At like Four to the six In the morning I was in gym The like four to six in the morning. I was in the gym. The gym, yeah. Oh, yeah, the gym. Everybody's going to the gym.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Yeah. Okay. I mean, you probably should have just walked to the gym. Also, power play from you, not to take like, like you took a management's car park. You didn't take like another, like a plebs car park.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Oh, no, no, no. I don't punch down. You just punch up. Okay, right, great. Yeah. I was going to take The CEO's car park But I don't have access
Starting point is 00:05:07 To basement level one Yeah Coming up on the show This morning Eight o'clock Thanks to HBO's House of the Dragon More chances for you
Starting point is 00:05:15 To win cash With our fire breathing dragons You've seen The first couple of episodes Hayley I have I've watched the first episode We've actually been
Starting point is 00:05:24 Like we're so fortunate To have been given A preview of six episodes We have the first couple of episodes, Hayley? I have. I've watched the first episode. We've actually been, like, we're so fortunate to have been given a preview of six episodes. We have. I have. Are we allowed to say, because I've seen reviews of Santa coming out on the media,
Starting point is 00:05:32 are we allowed to say what we think about it? No, I don't think so. No, not yet. Okay. I think there's a ban until... Maybe just bite your tongue. There's a ban until it comes out here.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Yeah, it was midnight. Oh, I think we might be able to. Yeah, but I think it said something about Pacific, Eastern... No, it was midnight. Oh, I think we might be able to. Yeah, but I think it said something about Pacific, Eastern, Western, Southern Fiji time. Oh, Southern Fiji time. Southern Fiji, Pacific. Don't you dare go for Northern Fiji time. We'll hold off then.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Will your chance to win cash coming up 8 o'clock this morning? The top six on the way? Yeah, an Australian cafe owner wants his staff to wear little red stickers on their shirts when they're menstruating. This has surely got to be a joke, right? No. It sounds like a joke.
Starting point is 00:06:13 I certainly hope so. So I've got the 12 six. The 12 six? The top six. You're doing two top sixes. He's had his three top sixes. I've got the top six other ways of letting people in your cafe know that your staff are menstruating. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:28 That's good to know. It's important. Everybody, everywhere, at every time knows everyone else's menstruating, menstrual cycle. Because you wouldn't want to bring an aggressive dog into a cafe if the staff's all menstruating. Or a bear. Or a bear, yeah. Or a shark. Okay, top six coming up before seven.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Next on the show, though. The Finnish Prime Minister. The hottest, regularly voted hottest young Prime Minister in the world. Oh, poor Jacinda. I know. It's a real slap in the face. Real slap in her beautiful face. Yes.
Starting point is 00:06:57 She had it, and now it's been taken by the Finnish Prime Minister. But it's not easy being young and hot. Trust me, I remember. Yes, and Finnish political scandal next on the show. ZM. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. The Finnish Prime Minister, Sanne Marin,
Starting point is 00:07:16 she was elected, was it last year or the year before? I feel like she ousted somebody because of their poor response to COVID, perhaps. Right. In the early days. I don't really follow Finnish politics too closely.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I'm a big Finnish politician. Well, do you know what? This might come as a shock to you, Hayley, but Ancestry.com have updated their... Oh, yeah, baby. They've updated their... What do you call them? Their ethnicity groups or their... Have they?
Starting point is 00:07:42 Have they? And I'm... Vaughan and I have actually shot up the rankings of the Nordic, the Scandi countries, haven't we? Correct. I think I'm 10% Scandi now.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Yep. I'm currently sitting at 9% Swedish and Danish. So now that's equal to my Irish, which I have often blamed for my drinking. But now I'm 61% Scottish
Starting point is 00:08:01 who also like a drink and the Swedish who love a schnapps. who love a schnapps. They love a schnapps with breakfast. Oh, my God. How have they done this and it's changed so dramatically? Last week when we were talking about it, I was 49% Scottish, which made a lot of sense.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Now it's 38. What's up? Oh, my Maldi's dropped. It's really, it's really. How much has it dropped? 1%. Right. 19.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Ugh. Norway, 4%. Ireland's in, 17%. Yeah, right. It's taken from a Scotland. Hawaii, 1%. That's where my Maori's gone. It's taken the 1%.
Starting point is 00:08:40 It's gone to the, yeah. Oh, okay. It's traced you right back. Isn't it fascinating that the more people that do the DNA test, the more they can work out your ancestry? It's so fascinating. Anyway, we'll carry on. Carry on.
Starting point is 00:08:52 We all feel a connection. I've always felt a connection to the ocean. You know? Yeah, right. And I knew it was more than just the New Zealand oceans. I'm sort of a Moana. More a Moana vibe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Me and Dwayne the Rock Johnson, I have a feeling we could be related. All right, calm down 1%. We could be related. Or he's going to teach you the way of wayfaring. Okay. This is how the 1% live. Yeah. The 1% Hawaiian, that is.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Santa, Mara, and actually, I've been corrected, 2019 was when she... Oh, wow. She has served as Prime Minister of Finland Since then So that was Three years ago She would have been 33 years old
Starting point is 00:09:28 At the time of election She is now 36 years old Would she have been The youngest Even just Prime Minister Let alone female Prime Minister Would she have been
Starting point is 00:09:35 Younger than Jacinda Yeah Yep Yep Because what was Jacinda When she was Oh Maybe not
Starting point is 00:09:42 Because what's Jacinda now 40 42 when she was? Oh, maybe not. What's Jacinda now? 40? 42. How much older was she at school? But she was Prime Minister since 2017, so five years. So she became the world's youngest female head of government at 37.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Jacinda did. Jacinda. Yeah, but so this girl, this Prime Minister is this girl. I'm allowed to say that Because I'm older than her Surely And I think of myself As a boy
Starting point is 00:10:11 This hot young chicky babe She's only 36 now And she's been Prime Minister for three years Oh yeah she would have Beaten Jacinda Yeah So she
Starting point is 00:10:20 Has now been called out For the amount of partying She's doing And people are demanding A drug test She's taken the drug test And apparently nothing So she has now been called out for the amount of partying she's doing. And people are demanding a drug test. She's taken the drug test. And apparently nothing to report. No, of course not.
Starting point is 00:10:35 And there was also scandal because she was dancing with somebody who was married, right? Yeah, but she wasn't. That was all it was. I know, I know. Wow. Yeah. Okay. Because she's married too.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Because people are saying, well, you're the Prime Minister, you shouldn't be out at nightclubs. Why not? I don't know. You're still allowed a life. Yeah. Who wrote the rules that Prime Ministers have to be stuffy, old, bloody?
Starting point is 00:10:56 Yeah. Sitting in their whiskey rooms. Yeah, I was going to say, the Prime Minister's a whiskey drinker, aren't they? Yeah, cigars. Yeah. They aren't, you know, a? Yeah, cigars. Yeah. They aren't, you know, a bottle of Prosecco Deep. Yeah. Or you know, a couple of Red Bull Voddies.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Because she is in Finland, so you know, they love their vodka. Yeah, they love their vodka. Finlandia, I think that's all they drink. Oh yeah, Finlandia. Must be. Where else would it be from? I certainly hope so, otherwise Finland might have issue with that alcohol provider. All right, 14 past six.
Starting point is 00:11:27 We'll listen up, you two. I've got what it means if you hate astrology. Your star signs. Your Virgo and Capricorn rising. Vaughan's got no time for it. Oh, yeah, but I don't hate it. I just don't regard it with any feelings. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Let's talk about astrology. Did you guys notice the moon this morning when you were coming into work? Don't regard her with any feelings.
Starting point is 00:11:47 Let's talk about astrology. Did you guys notice the moon this morning when you were coming into work? I did. A little crescent situation. Real little crescent. It was a little, like a nail, like a clipped nail. Why are you going to ruin the image of the moon by making it like... I always think that when it's like a little slither. I'm like, it's like a nail clipping.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Oh, that you find in the carpet. You're like, oh, who did this here? It's in the sink or nowhere else. Or outside in the summer. Always clip nails, yeah. That's just a PSA to everyone. Well, a psychologist has looked into why, in particular, men think astrology is all a crock of shite.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Yeah. And it is because of their toxic masculinity. That's why. Nothing to do with, you know, there's no proof in it is because of their toxic masculinity. That's why. Nothing to do with, you know, there's no proof in it or blah, blah, blah. Does this encompass crystals and all that nonsense? Crystals, yeah. You sort of... What's it got to do with toxic masculinity?
Starting point is 00:12:37 Well, because... Explain yourself, woman. Because astrology has been feminised, basically. It's seen as a very girly thing to believe in. They think that a lot of men think it's too girly and immature for them. Right, okay. It sounds like a you problem. If you think something's too girly for you,
Starting point is 00:13:04 it's because you're a toxic man. I don't think it's too girly for you, it's because you're a toxic man. I don't think it's too girly for me. I just think it's horse shit. There's absolutely no scientific proof. You're coming across pretty toxic here, Gordon. I'm coming across hot and toxic. You're the aggression. I'm just trying to speak.
Starting point is 00:13:17 I'm just trying to share the article. Yeah. You didn't need to come out attacking like that. I'm not attacking you. I'm attacking your entire gender. My toxic masculinity also thinks astrology is embarrassing. Yeah. But, hey, we all need something to believe in.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Maybe the stars are it. Though I am like I'll make that relationship between whatever my star sign says that morning and my life. Oh, broad strokes of a brush. If I just have a little, because I say I don't believe in it, but then I'm like, holy shoot. Star sign. I was going to get a reading today because I am starting a new life today, a new journey to health. Right.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Does this mean no cafe treats at all this week? None. None. Wow. And we're going away. Yeah. What about a custard square? I had a kazi at a kazi square at the weekend.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Oh, good stuff. No, I'm not having a bar of it. I poisoned my body this weekend and it's not happening. Today you were suggested to keep calm and be happier. Be happier? What is that? Be happier. Don't overthink about anything and work harder.
Starting point is 00:14:22 That's just a general statement that has nothing to do with where the moon and the stars are. Don't be too stiff towards people. You have to keep calm. Right. Okay. But is that the universally agreed upon star sign for your people today? Or does every publication have a different one?
Starting point is 00:14:37 Your head's a different one. I like this one. You should bask in a glorious splendor today, Libra. You know the interns write those, eh? There's a great deal of power at your disposal. You'll find your ego is healthy. You did have to, when you came over to my house this weekend, sit right next to my awards.
Starting point is 00:14:56 Heidi does have her awards. I had them displayed on the table. I said, oh, have you won some awards, have you? Oh, I said, yeah, yeah. Pick it up. It's pretty heavy. So I'm going to bask in my glorious splendor today. Silly Little Pole, Silly Little Pole. It is so silly, silly, silly that Silly Little Pole, Silly Little Pole. Silly Little Pole, Silly Little Pole.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Silly Little Pole. Today's Silly Little Pole, do you untie your shoes or just slip them off? Oh, well, it depends if I'm wearing my Doc Martens. You just can't slip those off. You've got to undo half the laces. I will. Do you know what I did on Friday night? Friday night I went out and I came home.
Starting point is 00:15:52 I need a couple, maybe a little one or two drinky poos. I think the taxi driver, you left your phone in the taxi. I've described your behaviour to your fiancé as sloppy. I knew I shouldn't have got an errand to go and pick it up for me because the guy gave him the full rundown. But I was wearing Chuck Taylors,
Starting point is 00:16:13 which are like the hardest shoes to get out of. The worst. I cut the shoelaces off. Run a knife down them, did you? Or just scissors? You were so drunk.
Starting point is 00:16:23 No, I wasn't so drunk. I just couldn't get the knots and I just could not be bothered. It was bedtime. Just cut them off. They were dirty anyway. It's the downfall of the chuck. That and absolute lack of arch support.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Have you ever gone out to like try on jeans and you realise you're wearing my chucks and you're like, oh, I'm wearing my chucks. You're like, okay, here we go. Untie the shoes. That's where I always wear crocs out when you're trying jeans oh, I'm wearing my chucks. You're like, okay, here we go. Untie the shoes.
Starting point is 00:16:45 That's where I always wear Crocs out. When you're trying jeans on, yeah, you do. Crocs. Crocs and a slippery sock. But if I'm wearing just my gym shoes or just some shoes, I'll always slip them off. I'd never untie them. But then you've got to untie them next time you put them back on.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Yeah, but that's fine. You'd rather do it this way. I'd rather do it. Yeah, that's later you's problem. Yeah, that's later me's problem. Yeah, that's later me's problem. Do you untie your shoes or slip them off? 31% said untie them. 69% said slip them off.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Thank you to all those people too that were voting later on on the stage and saw that it was 69% and voted to keep it out. You can't see the percentage yet, can you? Yeah. Not until you've voted. But it really ruins the back of a shoe though, doesn't it? It does. Yeah, Not until you've voted. But it really ruins the back of a shoe though, doesn't it? It does. Yeah, it does. Destroy them.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Victoria says, who has time to undo shoes? Nine out of ten times I'm busting for a wee when I get to the house. Yeah, same. So slip slide them off. Joel, who by the way, his Instagram username is coffeefoodinbed. Oh, okay. Great. Those are three of my favourite things. Yeah. Maybe you should be friends with him. He seems like he's dressed very dapper in this. Send, okay. Great. Those are three of my favorite things. Yeah. Maybe you should be
Starting point is 00:17:45 friends with him. He seems like he's dressed very dapper in his. Send him a friend request. Might start following him.
Starting point is 00:17:51 I slip them off unless my wife is watching because she always tells me off. There's another thing we've got in common. He's got a wife too. A wife that tells you
Starting point is 00:17:59 off. So if his wife's watching, he'll untie them. Otherwise, it's the old slip and slide. Shauna says, because I have to untie them the next time I go to put them on, I am investing in my future self.
Starting point is 00:18:11 So she unties them to save her future self time. Those people are like those people that reverse into car parks. It's me. Because future me is going to be so delighted to just hop in and zip away. Right. Courtney says, and I say Courtney because that's how it's spelled. Courtney. Not Courtney.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Courtney. Courtney. Okay, Courtney. Courtney. Courtney says, imagine having your life together enough that you actually untied your laces at the end of your day. I could never. No.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Also, when I put them in my wardrobe on my shoe racks, it's nice having them tied up. Yeah, it looks nice. Because otherwise the laces are everywhere. No. Also, when I put them in my wardrobe on my shoe racks, it's nice having them tied up. Yeah, it looks nice. Because otherwise the laces are everywhere. Yes. Nicole says, I just do it in reverse. I slip off but definitely untie before putting them back on because they look way neater in the wardrobe with laces tied up.
Starting point is 00:18:56 There you go. You've got a soulmate. You should send her a friend request. Yeah, I was just going to partner by the looks of the photo, so don't be creepy. Kate says, why would you make a job for yourself when you're running late the next day and have to untie your shoes to get them off? So she's saying she's likely, future her's likely to be running late more so than present her's going to be present for time.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Leanne says, untie your shoes, you damned monsters. Oh, she works in a shoe store. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'd say so. Has at some stage worked in a shoe store. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'd say so. Has at some stage worked in a shoe store. A sneaker head? Yeah. I'll see if we've got a pair out the back.
Starting point is 00:19:32 Let's see if we've got a pair out the back. They come out and they go, oh, we didn't have that. We've got them in a different colour. It's like, I don't... I wasn't after turquoise shoes. Sorry, Leanne. It wasn't after red shoes.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's not the same as a pair of black sneakers, is it? That was all I really wanted. Yeah, and then you've got to take all that tissue out of the... Oh, my God. They put so much tissue in the shoes. So much tissue. That's a little... Oh.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I don't know why I always want to let that song play out The end of it You ain't nothing but a Someone put in the effort She's dead now Who? The lady that said that I thought you were saying Doja Cat
Starting point is 00:20:12 No Doja Cat's alive and well I can't imagine if we announced Doja Cat died That would be too far too casual She's dead now Yeah No the lady We cross now to the social media desk Carween
Starting point is 00:20:24 Who She had with us a silly little story of her flatmate in the group chat. Yes. Did she get a little bit peckish, did she? Yeah, so I woke up to some very panicked messages along the lines of how much facial serum is too much to eat. Do I need to throw this up again? What is a facial serum? Is it like a moisturizer?
Starting point is 00:20:54 Not a moisturizer, but like a... Yeah. I don't know how to explain it more than a serum. Is it oil? Is it oil-based? It's not always oil. Oh. But it's definitely like a...
Starting point is 00:21:03 Is it made up? No, it's not made Oh. But it's definitely like a jelly kind of. Is it made up? No, it's not made up. Is it snake tonic? No, it's not snake tonic. So it does work. It's full of all sorts of acids and alkalines. That doesn't sound good. Well, everything's good for you.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Chemicals. Chemical syrup. Chemicals. And so my flatmate and I both have these little sleep drops that sometimes we just have to help sleep because we both do early shifts that sometimes we just have to help sleep because we both do early shifts and sometimes you just really need some sleep. So you just pop them on your tongue?
Starting point is 00:21:31 Yeah, it's got one of those little dropper things. Oh, yeah, yeah. But what also has one of those dropper things is her face serum. I thought you were saying that she was trying to, like, really get the serum to work by tasting it. Well, that's what people do with oils, isn't it? And that's bad.
Starting point is 00:21:47 Like essential oils. No, you can't. Don't eat them. Yeah, no. Shouldn't be eating them. No. And yeah, so instead of reaching for the sleep drops, she reached for the face serum. Facial.
Starting point is 00:21:58 The face serum. Was she in the dark? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like about 10 o'clock at night. I guess she just was like, oh, I know they're right next to my bed. They weren't. So she was awake. Did you say she bombed it up?
Starting point is 00:22:12 Yeah, so she came to the conclusion that that was the best thing to do because everyone else was asleep. No one was replying. She was scared if she went to sleep, she'd die. So she bombed it back up. So you know what was in the serum? What was the active ingredient? No, I'm not sure, but chemicals.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Surely nothing would kill you in a couple of drops if you're regularly putting it on your face, right? Because that would seep into your skin and kill you that way. Yeah, it would just taste a bit. But it was 10 drops. I feel like that's quite a lot. So it took her 10 drops. 10 drops of squirt?
Starting point is 00:22:43 No, like a... Yeah, but 10 drops would be. 10 drops a squirt? No, like a... Yeah, but 10 drops would be the equivalent of a squirt, wouldn't it? Wouldn't it be the whole dripper? Would you normally have that much sleep serum, sleep drops? I would say that was probably a few too many, but, you know, when you've got to get to sleep, you've got to get to sleep. What's in the sleep drops? Is it that melamine, not melamine, because that'll kill you.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Yeah, melatonin, the sun stuff. Yeah, just all these, like, herbs and stuff. No, it melamine? Melatonin. That'll kill you. Melatonin, the sun stuff. Yeah, just all these like herbs and stuff. No, it doesn't have melatonin. Does it work? That sounds rubbish. Does it work? I mean, I sleep. Yeah, but you sleep anyway.
Starting point is 00:23:16 True. You're saying it's a placebo effect. Maybe it's just, I think it's just placebo. Yeah. Right. I mean, a placebo is a placebo. If it works, who cares? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:25 All right, but she's alive? Well, she is, yeah. Yeah, great. I don't a placebo is a placebo. If it works, who cares? All right, but she's alive? Well, she is, yeah. Yeah, great. I don't know that we'd be sharing this. We'll keep this updated if she dies. I know her and Doja Cat both died at the weekend. Huge weekend. Doja Cat is not dead.
Starting point is 00:23:36 You heard it here first. Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. So I was on Australian radio show Colin Jackie O in Sydney. I don't know how they got onto it.
Starting point is 00:23:58 They might have been like, ring us with your hard case yans about being on the rack. Or something like that. I don't know. I don't know. I would have done it. But anyway, some guy called Anthony called in, and he said he owns and manages a cafe. There had been an issue which had ended up at an HR
Starting point is 00:24:16 with a female staff member and another staff member, and then the female staff member had, in the end, been at fault and blamed being emotionally stressed and hormonal due to being on the period. So he said maybe when the female staff at my cafe are with period, they could wear a red sticker to indicate that they needed extra space. Like when you go to a dog park and the dog's collar means things. Yeah, don't touch me.
Starting point is 00:24:45 I bite. This has to be a joke. Surely. Imagine. Then he said the red sticker would have a smiley face on it so it would keep looking friendly. Right, okay. But see it as a warning.
Starting point is 00:24:57 It would indicate, yeah. Okay. So I've got the top six ways to let your customers know you are with period. Number six, you wear the big red period dress. Okay. So I've got the top six ways to let your customers know you are with period. Number six, you wear the big red period dress. Okay. The big flowing ball gown, but it's red. Is it like a one size fits all? Sisterhood of the travelling pants.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Yeah. I mean, the smaller employees, it's going to be baggy. The bigger employees, it's going to be tight. It's great. Are there going to be multiple of these? Because sometimes if you spend a lot of time with people you know you'll sync up
Starting point is 00:25:26 so you can't all be wearing the same dress. Well you hadn't thought about that had you? I'm going to need multiple. Syncing. I'm going to need multiple period dresses.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Maybe AS Colour could do one you know like they sell in bulk. Yes. Fantastic idea. Number five on the list of the top six ways to let your customers
Starting point is 00:25:40 know you are worth period are when they serve you everything comes with extra tomato sauce. Okay, yeah, right. But this is a cinnamon scroll. Just take it! Yeah, great.

Starting point is 00:26:21 just to let everybody know. But paint, eh? Yes. Okay, day. Yes. Okay, no. Yes. Just in the original days of war. Yes. You know, you would use. And I'm saying that's probably not a good thing. Not in a food,
Starting point is 00:26:35 not when there's food being served. I mean, I'm not going to come in here and tell you how to live your life at the weekend, but not when we're serving eggs, Benny. Number two on the list of the top six ways to let your customers know
Starting point is 00:26:48 you're with period. Make it a game. At the checkout, if you can correctly guess who is with period, you get a discount and a free jelly donut. Oh, yeah, that's great.
Starting point is 00:26:57 It's great, yeah. And tip, and then you always press no. I always press no. No, and then the little ask about a discount, you're like, how do I get the discount?
Starting point is 00:27:07 And the person says, if you can correctly guess who or how many people in this, if they're currently on their period, it's a discount. And number one
Starting point is 00:27:14 on the list are the top six ways to let your customers know you're with period. You have to wear the big, big silly period hat. It's a moon cup.
Starting point is 00:27:21 But for the head. Yeah, great. Yeah, it's like a big one that goes on the top of the head just to know. Because God knows we wouldn't want anyone to feel uncomfortable. You'd be in HR with all of these.
Starting point is 00:27:29 You'd be in HR with all of these. I would work in HR because these are such great solutions is what you're saying. Right. To avoid conflict between employees. Yes, yeah, yeah. That's right. That's it. That's today's top six.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. I want to talk about the things that you are still hiding from your parents, even though you are now a full-blown adult, free to make your own decisions. And this, I saw this on the talk, the TikTok. And there's a girl whose mother is a dentist. And she'd been avoiding her to the point that her mother was like, you have to come in. You haven't had dental work done for a while.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Was it free? Did she have to pay? Did she mention that her mother was like, you have to come in. You haven't had dental work done for a while. Was it free? Did she have to pay? Did she mention that? Did she mention if your mum charged you? Like, that'll be a few thousand dollars for those four fillings. You're like, what? But you'll pay that, eh? You've got to take the bloody rubbish out a few weeks at least.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Good to see you. Get out of here. Well, this woman, she doesn't even live with her mum. You know, she is fully independent. Right. And the reason she'd been avoiding her mum and they've filmed it, the moment, that she discovers it
Starting point is 00:28:32 is because she has a tattoo in her mouth. You know, remember those like... In her mouth. Yeah, remember it was popular to get like the bottom lip with like a little saying on it or something. Which you wouldn't normally see unless... No, you don't see them unless you go like... And so she'd been avoiding this.
Starting point is 00:28:47 What did it say? What this? It says daddy. It says daddy. And the mum, she's like looking at it because you know they always like, they really bleed those ones. Like the ink bleeds
Starting point is 00:29:01 and they get all fuzzy and furry in their tear. They don't last that long. And then the mum's like, what's that? And she's like, oh yeah, I just bit my lip really bad. She's like trying to lie. And the mum was like, what's that? And she just like pulls the bottom lip out. She's like, what does it say?
Starting point is 00:29:13 And then she says to the dental assistant, like, what is it? Is it swollen? She's like, no, she's got a tattoo. She's trying to work out what it says. She was like, does it say Maddie? Because that's her name. Does it say FU? She's like, no.
Starting point is 00:29:25 She's like, does. Does it say Daddy? And it says Daddy. Wow. And the mum looks so disappointed. She has this pain in her eyes. She's a dentist as well. The mouth. You don't tattoo the mouth.
Starting point is 00:29:38 Yeah, I know. I mean, I don't know if it would impact your teeth, but still. A lot of people were saying like, yeah, it's fine. Don't worry. Those lip tattoos fade in like a year because of like the food and stuff. Right. And then someone was like, no, but I got one 10 years ago and it's still crystal clear.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Because didn't Kylie Jenner get one? I will do a quick Google for you. Kylie Jenner mouth tattoo. Really? I want her. Kendall Jenner. Kendall got one. Is showing off a lip tattoo because she got wild drunk.
Starting point is 00:30:10 So it would only ever show if you were doing that puppy dog. Please. Please. Can I have some money? Does your lip say daddy? Kendall says meow. I mean, you can't fit much on them. No, you've really got to go a small word
Starting point is 00:30:25 You've got to go a small word because the letters have to be quite big because it's a difficult area I always used to think this about knuckle tattoos What would I say if I've got eight letters So there would be people that are not just I mean very few people have a mouth tattoo but a lot of people
Starting point is 00:30:40 I know people as well that have tattoos and their parents they haven't showed them. Oh, yeah, for sure. Because they can hide them because they're on their body. A friend of mine has one on his torso and he never told his parents about it. And then it was one Christmas, he totally forgot and just whipped his shirt off and she was like,
Starting point is 00:30:55 what the is that? Was it big? Yeah, it was really big. And she was so, like, she didn't talk to him for a good couple of months. She was so upset. Right. But this is what we wanted to ask is,
Starting point is 00:31:05 what are you still hiding from your parents, be it a tattoo or a relationship even? Oh, yeah, because you know they wouldn't approve. Yeah. Have you got a bad boy fresh from prison? Oh, yeah. And he drives you around and then he drops you off at your parents' house on his motorcycle just around the corner
Starting point is 00:31:22 so you can still walk. And has to wear track pants to hide the home detention bracelet. Yeah. Exactly. Maybe you're hiding a home detention bracelet. Maybe you're hiding. Yes. Alright, 0800 Dials at M. We want to take your calls now. You can text as well 9696. What are you still hiding from your
Starting point is 00:31:38 parents as an adult? Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Get loud in case you don't already know. Pack up your shit and go. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. We are talking about the things you are still hiding from your parents. As fully grown adults. Fully grown adults. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Some wild stories coming through. This came because a TikToker shared her mum discovered her lip, inner lip tattoo, would you call it? Yeah. Because her mum's a dentist. And she was like, let me look at these teeth. She obviously wanted to tell her. Yeah. She had the video ready to go. Yeah, but it doesn't go down
Starting point is 00:32:18 very well. No. The mum is incredibly disappointed. So yeah, we're asking what you're hiding from your parents. Yeah, and lots of them are tattoos. I'm just asking. There's a couple of people who have messaged in that people have got tattoos, but I don't know what the thing means,
Starting point is 00:32:31 so I don't want to read it out in case it's... Oh, okay. In case it's bad. You know when you don't know something, you're like, I'm going to err on the side of caution then. Biscuit. Biscuit.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I said that's good. That's good. Oh, I think you said biscuit. Oh, sweetie, you're hearing food, aren't you, in words. Why would I say in response to you saying, I'm going to err on the side of caution, I say biscuit. I thought I'd been a good boy and I was about to get a reward. You want a biscuit, don't you?
Starting point is 00:32:56 That's why when your dog does something and you're like, good, here's a reward. Here's a biscuit. You just did it. Okay. I've been with my boyfriend for six years, but my parents don't know he's been in prison for a couple of years before I met him. Yeah, as a parent. As a parent of girls.
Starting point is 00:33:13 I can't wait until your girls get tattoos and don't tell you and then have prison boyfriends. Probably like that. Yeah, I don't particularly want to date someone that's been in prison for a couple of years because you don't go to prison in New Zealand for a couple of years for a parking ticket, do you? What if it's like just some light fraud? You want a partner that's good with money.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Yeah, you do. Yeah, but then their names, they're always going to be bloody looked upon as well, aren't they? Because once you've been done with fraud, the eyes are on you. Yeah. The eyes are on you. My mum hid her tattoo from her adult children, So a bit of a role reversal, I guess. Oh, sassy mum. Yeah, because mum had always been anti-tattoo, you see.
Starting point is 00:33:50 I'm hiding the fact that I lived with my boyfriend, I'm now husband for two years, I'm afraid. We actually got married. Lived in a different city, so got away with it. That's so many people are messaging and like they're super conservative parents. Oh, like no sleeping in the same bed. Yeah, that they've lied to because they believe in, like,
Starting point is 00:34:08 these old-fashioned things so much. Get a grip. Anonymous, good morning. What are you hiding from your parents? Morning, guys. So I'm hiding the fact that I'm paying off a personalized plate for my car. Why are you hiding that? Why are you hiding that?
Starting point is 00:34:30 Because I got a personal loan off my parents to get this car and I'm still paying them back. Right. And so they'll be angry that you spent money on a plate when you could have paid them back first. Their theory is if I can modify my car in any way, then I should be able to pay the car off quicker. Have they seen the personalized plate? Yes, it is a personalized plate.
Starting point is 00:34:52 No, but have they seen it? Because they all know that those things aren't free. Oh, no, I've already got a backup plan that a friend of mine bought it for me as an early Christmas present. Who's got a friend that's dropping a grand on them, though? Yep. Wow. Yeah, but I get you,
Starting point is 00:35:06 because we don't need that lecture from the parents about money. I was going to ask what they say, but we can't, because then you'll be revealing your identity. Yes, no, that's true. Thank you, anonymous. Probably says biscuit. Holy. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:18 How would you do that? B-I-Z-K-I-T? B-I-Z-K-I-T. Biscuit, biscuit. Tom. Tom joins us. Good morning, Tom. What are you hiding from your parents?
Starting point is 00:35:27 Good morning. I'm hiding my sexuality. Oh, okay. Tom, is there a reason why you haven't told them yet? Just really conservative parents. Don't think they would understand. I've got friends that know, but not my parents. So do you go, like, do you feel like you're living a separate life?
Starting point is 00:35:48 Like you have your life with your friends and maybe partners, and then you go home to your parents and talk about your hot girlfriend in it. Nice boobies. Not really. I just don't talk about my relationships with them. Do you think they know?
Starting point is 00:36:06 Like, do you think they've got any inkling? Probably. But this is the thing about, like, getting... I mean, I haven't been through it, so it's different for everybody. But if you were, like, a conservative parent but your child is, like, not telling you the truth because they're worried you're going to judge them...
Starting point is 00:36:24 You'd let them off the hook and say, is there something you want to tell me? Or just don't care about something so inconsequential. Yeah. Yeah. Well, good luck. Good luck with that. Thanks for sharing, Tom. Lily joins us.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Lily, what are you hiding from your parents? Hi. I've got a really quite a big tattoo on the side of my rib. It says, while I breathe I hope in Latin. Okay, poetic. Yeah, yeah. Oh yeah, because I'm breathing but I've lost
Starting point is 00:36:56 all hope. Yeah, and soon the breath will stop. So, I bandage it up. So, it's mainly my mum that doesn't like tattoos. So if I'm ever in like a sports bra, because we're kind of sporty people, if I'm in like a sports bra or like togs
Starting point is 00:37:13 that kind of show my rib cage, I've got like a big bandage on it. What does she think that is? You're just constantly hurting your ribs. So I've said that the cat scratches me every single time, and she just, I don't know, she takes it. She believes it. What?
Starting point is 00:37:31 She's like, God, you've got to get a new cat. Yeah. I know. You're screwed if the cat dies. Yeah, true. I know. I don't know what I'll do. I don't know what I'll do if the cat dies.
Starting point is 00:37:40 You need to get a rashie. A rashie. Oh, yeah, okay. Think about that. Or like a t-shirt. Or just a one-piece. Yeah. The one-piece that I do wear is like a low side scoop.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Like if you can imagine like the Baywatch. Yeah, get yourself a nice pair of Speedo swimming one-piece, you know? Yeah. Like your Commonwealth Games swimmers. Yeah, sports quality. Nice. Thank you, Lily. I've also looked up personalized plates, biscuits taken.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Is there? Yeah. What about spelling it different? What about B-I-S-C-I-T? Biscuit. No. B-I-S-C-U-T is available. Yeah, but the ones.
Starting point is 00:38:16 I don't like the ones. You know what I mean? Do you know what's worse is when someone replaces an A with a four. Or a B with an eight. A and four aren't even. A and four aren't even... A and four aren't even... Yeah. Related.
Starting point is 00:38:27 No. I'm sorry. Not even in the same area of looking alike. How much would it cost if we got Vaughan Biscuit? Well, if you got Biscuit with the one, it's $9.99. Do you really want that? Do you really want that? Because it's expensive, Vaughan.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I do want it, Mum, please. Are you going to look after it? You give a good boy a biscuit, don't you? Some more messages in. Michelle says, my parents have absolutely no idea how many papers I've actually failed in uni. It's okay, though. I graduated, but they'll never find out that it took longer than it should have. C's get degrees.
Starting point is 00:38:59 Oh, C's get degrees. This person says, my parents don't know About my same sex partner Of 10 years We've built two houses together Parents are you missing out On so much of your kids life Holding these Conservative Out of date
Starting point is 00:39:11 Ridiculous views That's my opinion I'm allowed it Yeah well it's costing you A relationship with your kids So I hope you're happy Are you happy? Eh?
Starting point is 00:39:19 Are you going to be On your death bed And you're going to be like Well I've stuck to my Conservative views And I've lived a miserable life Or I put them down for a moment and I love my child
Starting point is 00:39:26 for who they are. Also be proud of them. They built their second house in this time and age. You know why? No pesky kids running around sucking up all the gay money. There's children running in here
Starting point is 00:39:39 taking all of my money. Yeah, they're absolute money leeches, and they're noisy. Christ. Gorgeous. My mum, my dad's hiding from my mum that he's brewing his own alcohol. Okay. But brewing systems are pretty intense.
Starting point is 00:39:56 We're hiding this thing. I must have a little shit out the back. That my tattoo wasn't done at the shop. My parents think I got a proper professional tattoo. It's a stick and poke job. What? They can't tell? You can tell a stick and poke from a mile away.
Starting point is 00:40:13 I assume they're in prison. 724 next on the show from the research desk. After a weekend, we probably need this news, how to eat and drink less. Research has come to the party. We're on a journey to health. You're on a journey to health this week. I emailed everyone and said, do not derail me.
Starting point is 00:40:32 I'm shredding for the metaphorical wedding. So no cafe treats after the show today? I won't be derailed. Now don't shoot the messenger. This is just news from the research desk, which I thought might come in handy this week if you're on a journey to health like yourself, Hayley. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:40:51 I will not be derailed. From the research desk, how to drink less and also how to eat less. Okay. From the how to Drink Less research desk, scientists conclude using a smaller glass is key to drinking less alcohol. No, because I'll put... Just go to the brim. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Or you just put less mixer in there. Oh, yeah, it goes straight to the good stuff. That's true. But then you drink it faster and then you're like, I'll have another one. I'll have another. But then is it that you drink it and then you're like, I'll have another one. I'll have another. But then is it that you drink it and then you're like, I've got to make another one
Starting point is 00:41:27 and you just put it off. Is how to eat less, use a smaller plate? I will punch a researcher. Because I remember reading that once. Before we get to that, so the study found that people who regularly drink wine at home
Starting point is 00:41:37 consume less each week when they switch to smaller glasses and bought smaller bottles. So what are you drinking? When the bottle's done, the bottle's done. Yeah. Well, a smaller bottle. bought smaller bottles. So what are you drinking? When the bottle's done, the bottle's done. Yeah. Small bottles. Like a 200.
Starting point is 00:41:48 No. That's not economical. No, yeah. It's a snack. Because my absolute, yeah, I'll buy a cask because economically it makes more sense. So 6.5% less wine was drank each week when the participants switched out for smaller glasses and opted to buy half-sized bottles, so 375ml bottles.
Starting point is 00:42:10 So they're halving the size of the bottle, but it's only going down 6%, so they're buying more small bottles. That's wasteful. Here we go, here we go, here we go. That's wasteful. The environment, it makes no sense economically to do this. And you're only dropping 6%.
Starting point is 00:42:25 That's terrible. At my level, 6% is not enough. Do you know what I mean? It's not going to put a dent. Like I said, don't shoot the messenger. All right. Okay, from the research desk of how to eat and snack less, these researchers have said that you've got to write down your last meal.
Starting point is 00:42:46 I can kind of get that because when I've done that MyFitnessPal and you catalogue everything you eat, you're very aware of everything you eat. Whereas when you're not, you're just like, num, num, num, num, num, num, num. Have a biscuit. But when you've got a big list of all the biscuits and stuff you've eaten, you're like, oh, okay, maybe I don't need more chips. I just lie. When I've done MyFitnessPal, I'm like, I'm not going to log those biscuits.
Starting point is 00:43:07 They don't really count. It was stupid. I shouldn't have done it anyway. I won't put them in there. Also, like, food is one of the, I'm just lying to myself, food is one of the only joys in life, food. Every time you're eating something, you're having to log it and track it and worry about it.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Nah. Well, they found that they tested this on people and they made people write down their food. People ate 70 fewer calories. 70? That's a breath. That's one apple. So for this study, they were testing
Starting point is 00:43:38 them with biscuits. Biscuits. A lot of biscuit chat on the show. And they're a great personalised plate. Somebody out there has biscuit Although you've got to lose a letter Because you can only have six Oh yeah
Starting point is 00:43:51 On a personalised plate So they would test them with biscuits And the people would eat less biscuits 70 calories Yeah if they were logging If they were logging their food So there you go Smaller wine glasses
Starting point is 00:44:03 Less biscuits Log your food MyFitnessPal Journey to health Or Good luck Eat the biscuit If they were logging their food. So there you go. Smaller wine glasses, less biscuits. My fitness pal. Journey to health. Or just eat the biscuit, wear the shorts, have the wine. Yeah. You'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Let's talk love languages, guys. We love talking love languages, don't we? I love the love languages. They actually make a lot of sense. What are you again? You're acts of service? Yeah, I think so. What are the love languages? So the love languages. They actually make a lot of sense. What are you again? You're acts of service? Yeah, I think so. What are the love languages?
Starting point is 00:44:27 So the love languages are words of affirmation, physical touch, gift receiving, quality time, and acts of service. I'm quality time. Yeah, you like to give and receive quality time. Yeah, I would agree with. I'm definitely physical touch. I do love words of affirmation. Can I say this?
Starting point is 00:44:48 If I need, like in terms of receiving it, I'll often go up to Aaron and be like, what are five things you like about my face? And is he just like, oh. Say three things you're proud of about me. Really? That's a lot. I couldn't handle that in a partner, needing that.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Yeah, it's quite full on. I came from a household where that just did not happen. No. I'm not very, I wouldn't say I'm needy at all, but every now and then I just crave a little bit of I wouldn't say I'm needy. Tell me three things you're proud about me. What are five things you love about my body?
Starting point is 00:45:21 Yeah, I wouldn't say I'm needy. What are four things you love about the body. Yeah, I wouldn't say I'm needy. What are four things you love about the sound of my voice? I wouldn't even know how to describe four things about the voice. Aaron does his best. Sometimes he's like, you're really sweet. And I'm like, oh, get a grip. That's not it. And then I'd pick apart
Starting point is 00:45:38 how wrong he's getting it. He can't win. What are three things you love about me? You're lovely. And you're like, that's not a quality. That's just fluff and filler. He can't win What are three things You love about me You're You're You're lovely And you're like That's not a quality That's just That's just
Starting point is 00:45:48 Yeah That's fluff and filler Try harder James you run a tight ship Not all the time I'm very easy and chill Right Nope

Starting point is 00:46:03 Yes And you're like I do Thank you You keep your fingernails clean Yeah That's a good quality Oh thank you
Starting point is 00:46:11 That's a good quality Do you remember I told you guys That when we celebrated Our 11th anniversary That we had 11 opportunities Throughout the day To ask for a positive affirmation And definitely towards the end
Starting point is 00:46:23 I'd be like I'm ready for another one He'd be like Great teeth That ready for another one. He'd be like, great teeth. That's good, though. You work hard, you pay, you know. I sort of wanted things about my spirit. Eleven. My spirit and my soul.
Starting point is 00:46:33 He's going to make sure he's away for the weekend of the 12th anniversary. Well, don't laugh at these because a massive study has been done that shows that, what do they call it, mismatches. So couples that speak totally different love languages. So say someone who's more like a physical touch and then their other partner doesn't enjoy that at all,
Starting point is 00:46:54 giving or receiving, and maybe their more quality time with their other partner is busy. Leads to greater dissatisfaction romantically and sexually in the boudoir. Right. Is there any match for a gift, a gift receiver?
Starting point is 00:47:11 A gift receiver? Like who, what is the best person love language wise to be with a gift receiver? Because that would be the absolute worst one to be with. You'd be constantly having to buy them things. Are there flowers in that basket? It feels very materialistic, doesn't it? It weighs. Like would you have to be with. You've been constantly having to buy them things. Are there flowers in there? It feels very materialistic. Yeah. Like would you have to be with another gift buyer?
Starting point is 00:47:30 Another gift? I wonder if receiving gifts... So then what? Everybody's just buying each other gifts the whole time. There'll be no money. Yeah, and everything's after paid and you can't afford the rent or the mortgage. Yeah, it'd be terrible. I've got a little graphic thing here
Starting point is 00:47:45 that says how to speak your partner's love language and receiving gifts. If their love, so say my love language is receiving gifts, how to communicate thoughtfulness, make your spouse a priority, actions to take, give thoughtful gifts and gestures.
Starting point is 00:47:59 So I wonder if, but then I'm like acts of service, but I think acts of service is more like make them breakfast or dinner. Go out of your way to help with chores. Right. Whereas receiving gifts, give thoughtful gifts and gestures. Express gratitude when receiving gifts.
Starting point is 00:48:14 And then they say things to avoid. Unenthusiastic gift receiving. What's this shirt? That's not going to fit. That's too small. Right. For example. And then forgetting special occasions.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Right. I don too small. Right. For example. And then forgetting special occasions. Right. I don't care about gifts. You just want five things that your spirit sung to them today. Four things you just love about my hands. And I'll hold them in front of him. He'll go, nice long fingernails. Your knuckles aren't bulgy. Is he allowed like 10 minutes to think of something?
Starting point is 00:48:48 Or does he have to do it then and there? Heaven forbid he took a bloody pause. He just has to rattle that list off. Friday, we had the Wiggles in the studio. Oh my goodness. Current lineup of the Wiggles, very lovely people. But hearing that the original lineup of the Wiggles, very lovely people, but hearing that the original lineup of the Wiggles, Sam and Anthony and Jeff.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Jeff, absolute hero of the people, Jeff. Yeah. And Murray. Paul's in the show, just worship Murray for that. He's got some rock on his swag, doesn't he? He's a shredder. And he's got some rock on his swag, doesn't he? He's shredder. And he's got this long rock and roll hairdo still. The original Wiggles were doing an R15 show on Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:49:31 We thought we simply must. And we did. And zero regrets. What a night. It was so impromptu as well because we had all planned to hang out this weekend. You guys were coming over. Fletch hasn't seen my house before it gets reno'd. And we were just going to have some drinkies. Yeah. And then a
Starting point is 00:49:48 chit chat and probably an early night. And we were like, turning to a BYO. Yeah. Delicious succulent Asian food. And then off to the Wiggles we went and absolutely preloaded. To the brim.
Starting point is 00:50:03 I used this opportunity to say because a lot of people messaged me. To the brim. I want to use this opportunity to say, because a lot of people message me, they see... People were so confused. They're like, where are your kids? I'm like, no, you're missing the point. No kids. And then people are like, but it's the Wiggles.
Starting point is 00:50:15 What are your adults? And I'm like, yeah, but like, it's wholesome, like good vibes. If you've had kids, you've had the Wiggles. They've done you an untold amount of favours by keeping your kids entertained so you can get stuff done. We all grew up with the songs. So you know all the
Starting point is 00:50:30 songs. So this Friday, there is an R15 concert in Christchurch at Christchurch Arena, 8 o'clock. Tickets are still on sale. That's the other good thing. It's an early show. It was so much fun. Because they don't do anything different.
Starting point is 00:50:46 We walked in. No. We were a bit late because we were enjoying a delicious succulent Chinese meal. Yeah, Chinese meal. And when we walked in, everyone was already in there because they had, what's his name who did the opening? Justice Crew. Justice Crew, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:00 And you walked in and the set was how incredible. We all just started screaming and then we just didn't stop screaming for hours because it was like so joyful. And then between the opening and the Wiggles,
Starting point is 00:51:11 they play all these songs that are just the Wiggles singing covers. Bohemian Rhapsody? Yeah, Bohemian Rhapsody and all these amazing songs. So they play all that and then the Wiggles
Starting point is 00:51:19 came out and everybody there just absolutely lost their mind. And for the entirety of the Wiggles show, everybody was just in a constant state of losing their mind. And for the entirety of the show, everybody was just in a constant state of losing their mind. Euphoria. Because people ask me.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Absolute euphoria. I had so many messages, people saying, oh, do they swear? Like, what do they do? But they do not. It's exactly the same show they do for kids. They would have done for kids for all of these years. Except the floor is wet with spilt booze and not urine. Oh, my God. Like like at the end of the night
Starting point is 00:51:46 I just looked out, it was like a sea of just booze, like yeah. There were definitely I mean, we were having a good a great time. We were kind of at the back and we had lots of space around us so we were just dancing our little tushies off. It was a mosh pit.
Starting point is 00:52:01 There was right at the end we charged forward. Yeah, went forward. Because one girl messaged me saying their friend got kicked out of the Wiggles. Oh, that's one for the CV, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:52:11 It really is. Aggressive. Aggression. It was a message earlier this morning. I messaged back, but she hasn't replied. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:18 I did ask. That was one of my questions is how do you get kicked out of the Wiggles? Just so much fun. I remember one point coming out to get it. We were doing rounds of drinky popoos and we'd be like,
Starting point is 00:52:29 okay, it's my round. I'm going to go. I've got our order. And I remember coming out at one point to get some drinks and Vaughn's with a group of ZM fans taking a knee. Yeah. And I was like, what is happening here? It was, yeah, so much joy in the room.
Starting point is 00:52:43 It was so amazing. That's because I'm not a crowds, I don't like crowds at all. And I think it's down to how unpredictable humans are en masse. Yeah. And when there's aggression and booze in an area, everything can change in a heartbeat, you know? Yes. So, yeah, I got a whole lot of reasons I don't like crowds
Starting point is 00:53:01 and being in a crowd of people. But, like, I never felt it on Saturday night because it wasn't an ounce of aggression. No. It wasn't an ounce of, yeah, you never felt like anybody was there for anything other than just the best time of their lives. Your wife said to me yesterday,
Starting point is 00:53:16 she hasn't seen you like that happy ever. I haven't seen Aaron that proud of me. I talked to Aaron about it because he doesn't like crowds. We're not crowd people. He hates it. And he was just like, oh yeah, we had the room and it was just like,
Starting point is 00:53:28 we were dancing and it was just joyous. When we changed our plans because I think Aaron was like, we're having a casual night at our house. When I said we've got tickets to the Wiggles,
Starting point is 00:53:36 I just 100% thought he was going to be like, oh no, I won't go but you know, I have a drink with you beforehand. And then we were just like, yep. He was so into it.
Starting point is 00:53:44 I was going to have a conversation with you, Fletch, and I'd turn around and Aaron was just on his own like, yeah! Yeah! I reckon the only aggression in the night was probably coming from us
Starting point is 00:53:53 when that guy said we weren't allowed to go into the bar because it was too busy. Oh yeah, we got silly afterwards. We went to a rooftop bar and the guy said, no, no, no, it's too full. And we said,
Starting point is 00:54:02 I don't think so. I think we'll be the judge of that. And then we got up there and it wasn't. It wasn't. What a beautiful seat. Well, if you get the chance, if you're in Christchurch where you can make it this Friday, it's the last New Zealand show with the original line-up
Starting point is 00:54:15 as they do their tour around the country. It's their last R15 show. 100% do it because that was the funnest night ever. If you see merch you wanted to start, don't wait until the end. Oh, no, yeah, me and Shana got T-shirts. Yeah, the T-shirt I want sold out even before we got there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:30 The T-shirt I wanted. So if anybody sees the black Wiggles T-shirt with, like, the presidential seal, like the Ramones-looking T-shirt. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But with Dorothy the Dinosaur in the middle, not the American Eagle, and then the four original dudes' names around the outside. Large, black, buy it. I will pay you back with a finder's fee.

Next on the show, speaking of House of the Dragon, the pre-quarter Game of Thrones. Some wedding guests have been asked to do something before this wedding.
Starting point is 00:57:26 So it's a Game of Thrones wedding? It's a Game of Thrones wedding, and this is honestly ridiculous. So destination weddings are a thing, you know, where you're like, it's a really good way to cut the old guest list. Cut the numbers. Yeah, that's the idea. Cut the numbers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:45 Although I do love that Aaron and I have been talking about potentially doing that and every time someone's like, I might be around, we're like, come! Oh, you should come! So wait, that's a hollow promise? Yeah, so like all my friends that you know, like my bestest school friends that won't be there and they'll look at the photos
Starting point is 00:58:01 and be like, who's that? Like, I don't know, it was just some guy I knew and he was in town. Anyway, but I guess the main thing is the cost, right? That people go, if you're getting married in Fiji
Starting point is 00:58:12 or Europe or whatever, the cost falls on the guests. So you can see that some people go, like, it's a little bit selfish to have a destination wedding. But the whole thing is they don't want you to come. Yeah, I like it.
Starting point is 00:58:22 They just keep it small. Keep it small. Yeah. Well, if you add on top of that, this bride, so they're massive Game of Thrones fans. Right. So they wanted to have a destination wedding so it looked somewhere more Game of Thrones-y.
Starting point is 00:58:36 Oh, where are they going to do it? I can't get the... Because where did they film? They filmed all over the place. Around the whole world. They could go to Dubrovnik, have it at King's Landing. That's the Croatian place. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Everybody goes there. Yeah, it doesn't say in this, in the bit that I'm interested in. So they're going, hey guys, we're having a Game of Thrones themed wedding. So now you're going, and it's a destination. So now you're flying somewhere. You've got to hire or buy or make a Game of make a Game of Thrones themed outfit so you look like you are a character. And then the third thing that they've asked their guests is to learn High Valerian, which is a made up language from Game of Thrones
Starting point is 00:59:18 because most of the wedding ceremony, minus, you know, a prayer here and there, is going to be conducted in High Valerian, a made-up language. Because I remember the actors talking about speaking this, and they did have to learn some kind of basic. Some guy invented the languages. The Dothraki was the big one. The Dothraki language was very extensive. Yeah, the guy that invented the languages.
Starting point is 00:59:43 Yeah, a long time ago, interviewed the guy. Yeah, so that,? Yeah. The guy that invented the languages. Yeah. A long time ago. Interviewed the guy. Yeah. So that, I mean, that's, because the way they've constructed the language, it's really full. Like you can learn it in its entirety. They're not just kind of going. Yeah. Will there be a test? I'd just wing it. Well, then, so the friend said,
Starting point is 00:59:59 I mentioned to the bride, like, oh, look, you know, it's all getting very expensive. Plus, you know, do I really have to put this time into it? And the bride got all shirty with her and was like, well, I'm not really asking for too much. Kept sending her links to learn the language.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Oh my god, you can do Hi Valeria in this fake language on Duolingo. I was gonna say I'm pretty sure it's on Duolingo. Game of Thrones language is on Duolingo. Oh my God. Wouldn't you rather use the time to learn an actual language? So if you, this could become one. If you wanted to give a speech or a toast at this wedding,
Starting point is 01:00:35 you're expected to do so in High Valyrian. But then, too much effort. Too much effort. Yeah, a lot of people were saying, like, I wouldn't feel safe attending a Game of Thrones themed wedding. Who knows if it'll be a red one? Yes. Anyway, so this is, we wanted to dive into the,
Starting point is 01:00:50 because weddings turn people a little bit crazy. They do, yeah. Don't they? They do. What was the most ridiculous thing asked of you for a wedding? Maybe it was to fly, you know, to Antarctica. You have to put money into a puffer jacket. Well, you've got to get get Hercules, don't you?
Starting point is 01:01:05 You've got to get the Air Force to airdrop you in. Well, maybe, have you seen those weddings people have underwater? Like a scuba wedding and you'd have to have your driver's licence. Or just if you're asked to do something on the day, and you end up working or you end up...
Starting point is 01:01:21 This happened to me, and this is fine because she's one of my best friends. But I was my friend's one of my best friends. Yeah. But I was my friend's maid of honour and she's super organised. It was a really classy wedding and then just as we were about to walk out as she was going to meet her husband I was like, who's MCing? She goes, oh, you?
Starting point is 01:01:38 Oh no. Like literally on the day five minutes before. Yeah. I nailed it. No, you need a lot of prep for that. Yeah, you need prep time. You need to know the people. You need to know the ins and the outs, who you can joke about,
Starting point is 01:01:49 who you can't, what's on and off the table. It was the best case scenario, I guess, because I am a performer. And like, you know, if you threw that on someone who wasn't, they'd pack themselves. So you acted your way through.
Starting point is 01:02:01 I did. And instead of giving my speech, I just cut it up into chunks, you know, and like use that as my kind of overarching thing. Anyway, what is the most ridiculous thing that you have been asked? To do it at a wedding. To do it at a wedding. Yeah, okay, let us know.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Maybe you've been asked to learn a language. We are talking about the most ridiculous things that have been asked of you to, oh, bless you, darling. Bless you. You turned your mic off. Thoughts and prayers. Don't. Thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers. It's rubbish.
Starting point is 01:02:28 Is it that the devil's coming out or that the devil's getting in? Bless you. It's that your soul escapes, right? And the devil's waiting at your nostril. He's just grab it. Gotcha. A load of rubbish. The devil got your soul years ago.
Starting point is 01:02:38 I don't like when people say bless you. He is the devil. I think you need some blessings. The devil got in. Actually, it might be a good for Monday. You did have a big weekend. Some thoughts and prayers, Fletcher Sway, please. The wildest or most exuberant things that have been asked of you as a wedding guest
Starting point is 01:02:54 or, you know, part of the party. A destination wedding. The bride is asking everybody to learn the fake, the fictitious. Well, it's actually a language now, isn't it? Yeah, but it doesn't come from anywhere. History. Yeah, Valyrian. Yeah, High Valyrian.
Starting point is 01:03:11 She's expecting all the guests to learn it. All the speeches will be in this Game of Thrones language. Crazy she chose High Valyrian over Dothraki. Dothraki is the language of love. Yeah. Some messages in from people who have been asked a little too much for somebody else's wedding day.
Starting point is 01:03:30 I'm a celebrant and the bride asked me to ask her potty mouth nasty nana not to come to the wedding. But I'm a celebrant. Oh, that's not your job. That is not your job. Absolutely not in your job description. So is the celebrant, I'm a celebrant, am I supposed to ring up? What does everyone except me a the celebrant, I'm a celebrant. Am I supposed to ring up? What, is everyone except me a celebrant?
Starting point is 01:03:47 You should become a celebrant. I'm also not a celebrant. Everyone else is a celebrant. I'm also not a celebrant. Everybody is a celebrant. It's so easy. How much do you charge him for celebrancies? I don't charge anything.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I do it for the goodness, kindness of my own heart. Yeah. No, don't, but like, don't text me and be like, oh my God, can you be the celebrant? I only do it for friends. Yeah, okay. Oh, friends only. You're not like doing a business. You're not making a business out of it. No, every now and then like don't text me and be like, oh my God, can you be the celebrant? I need to go to friends. Yeah, okay. Oh, friends only. You're not like doing a business.
Starting point is 01:04:06 You're not making a business out of it. No, every now and then I get an email being like, hey, because you're on a registry. Oh, okay, right. I need to get off that registry. Remember that guy who put something in my mailbox? They can, they never got it from the celebrant's registry. Maybe, maybe. You can get, you can just randomly access the celebrant registry and just randomly call
Starting point is 01:04:24 a random one. Yeah, well, because if you were actually, there isant registry and just randomly call a random one. Yeah, well, because if you were actually, there is a registry, and if you were actually trying to run it as a business, you would have a celebrant's email address. Right. Because now I've just, I've told you, and you can email me personally
Starting point is 01:04:35 if you look me up as a celebrant. Okay, great. I might change that, actually. Yeah, okay. But yeah, so she's asking to get the celebrant to ring the grandma. This is actually putting me off being a justice of the peace. Well, were you going to do that in your retirement? I really wanted to be a justice. No, no, no, so she's asking to get the celebrant to ring the grandma. This is actually putting me off being a justice of the peace. Well, were you going to do that in your retirement?
Starting point is 01:04:47 I really wanted to be a justice. No, no, no, now. I wanted to be a justice of the peace. Don't you have to have been something? No, you just have to get nominated by your local MP. Do you? They have to, like, sign off on your thing. Yeah, I really wanted to be a justice of the peace.
Starting point is 01:05:00 But now I don't. It sounds like a little weird. It does. Grace is called. Grace, were you asked too much at a wedding? Yeah, actually. Me and my brother Jackson had to get onto the stage and dance in front of the guests
Starting point is 01:05:12 because my dad forgot to hire entertainers. Wait, wait. So how old are you, Grace? I am 11. So they went, we need some cute kids. We've forgotten this. This is in place of a house band, Grace? Like, he's not got someone singing Billy Joel covers.
Starting point is 01:05:30 He's got two kids dancing. Yep, he had a four-year-old and a six-year-old dancing on the stage. For how long? I'd say roughly about 10 minutes. Oh, wow. That's a big routine. What did you do? What was your dance move?
Starting point is 01:05:44 Chicken dance? We may or may not have done some Fortnite emotes. Oh, yes. A bit of flossing? At the height of flossing. Was Dad in trouble? Was Dad in trouble for forgetting the entertainment? He was in trouble with me.
Starting point is 01:05:58 I bet. I bet. Yeah, that would be slightly embarrassing. Did you get any sort of remuneration for this? Did they pay you? No. Got a bloody stepmom or something out of it, didn't you? embarrassing. Did you get any sort of remuneration for this? Did they pay you? No. Got a bloody step-mum or something out of it, didn't you? Yeah, probably.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Yeah. Yeah, she's just stuck on that. Grace, thanks for your call. Some messages in. I was asked to cut my hair very short to be part of the bridal party. My hair was mid-back length, and they wanted me to cut it really short to fit in with the rest of the head. That's too much oh that's too
Starting point is 01:06:25 much that's too much you know you don't do that i mean you could always photoshop her hair later couldn't you yeah like a little sort of we'll just not care do yeah yeah what's that um you know what i would have done i would have she would have said can you cut your hair really short and i'd be like that's so stupid and i would shave it off how How short? You're going to be like, I've shaved it. Yeah. Why isn't it when you bought? Well, too bad you should have been clearer. You didn't stipulate. It was instructions. I offered a friend to,
Starting point is 01:06:50 I take photos of her getting ready as a wedding gift. As I know that often that can be quite an expensive add-on for wedding photographers. Okay. So I said, I'll come around,
Starting point is 01:07:01 I'll take some photos of you getting ready and then that will, and then I can go get ready and we can all have a good time. On the day of her wedding, her mum said, I'll come around, I'll take some photos of you getting ready, and then I can go get ready and we can all have a good time. On the day of her wedding, her mum said, and thank you so much for doing all of the wedding photography. We cancelled the other one, so it's obviously a massive save. Oh, my God, so now you're doing formal snaps?
Starting point is 01:07:17 Now you're not a wedding guest, you're a wedding employee. Oh, gosh. Stubbed my toe pretty bad. The nail fell off before the wedding. We, the bridesmaids, were in open-toe shoes, so I was told I had to glue on a fake nail. To the raw bed. Yeah. What do you get a fake nail out
Starting point is 01:07:33 of? You just get a... You can get toenail. Can you get fake toenails? Yeah, the people that got little squat. I've got a massive toenail. I don't reckon they'd make a fake toenail. You'd have to get a custom-made toenail. You'd have to get a custom-made toenail. I'd have to get a custom-made. And how do you get a custom-made?
Starting point is 01:07:48 Do you go into Professionale and they scan it? They pick up all the other bits of nail that they've cut off everybody else, or the dustings. Yeah, yeah. And they put it in powder and into a paste with some PVA glue. A bit of resin. And then they'll set it right then and there. No wonder that place at the mall smells.
Starting point is 01:08:04 It's the resin. Oh, it's a lot of reason. It's for the fake toenails. Yeah, a lot of reason. Hold the plane. Bride and groom were late for their flight and some of the wedding party were begging the people checking our tickets to just wait.
Starting point is 01:08:16 It came down to a matter of seconds. Moving on. So delay an entire plane ride. Last reading I went to, the celebrant showed up an hour early. He was double booked and said one of us would have to marry the couple
Starting point is 01:08:27 because of... A double booking. He was just doing them and then going to the next one but he got the times wrong so double booking and he said good luck and away he went.
Starting point is 01:08:36 My parents turned up late to their own wedding. They had four guests. They were late because they were a bit drunk and the guy had to go as well. He's like, I've got another wedding
Starting point is 01:08:44 so they just went quick version. Oh, really? So I don't think they even really said anything nice. They just went, yep, I do, I do, I do. Let's go. Well, they're still together, aren't they? So it's worked. Wow.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Time will tell. Time will tell. Early days. Early days. Early days. 33 years. Yeah. I was told I was going to be one of my besties' bridesmaids.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Six months later, she rang me saying it was too difficult to navigate me being in a different city. So I was cut from being a bridesmaid. Six months later, she rang me saying it was too difficult to navigate me being in a different city. So I was cut from being a bridesmaid. But I could still come to the wedding to wrangle her children down the aisle
Starting point is 01:09:12 and then take them back to the hotel room and get them settled before the babysitter arrived and at which stage I could come back to the reception. No.
Starting point is 01:09:20 That's a big no for me. That's not even a friend, is it, really? No, that's a child wrangler. That's, yeah. Yeah. There you go. Weddings. People wrangler. That's, yeah. Yeah. There you go. Weddings.

Yeah, like the nice Havianas. Oh, the dressed Havianas. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everybody wants to be my enemy. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM.
Starting point is 01:09:59 Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Today's fact of the day is about the belly button. I was going to say some people hate them, some people love them. I hate when people touch your belly button. Every now and then Aaron does it. I'm like... That means it's somebody's fetish, in my opinion. If there's something about bodies that you're like, you know like feet?
Starting point is 01:10:34 You're like, feet are so like toes. But then some people are like, feet. Yeah. Give me them little footsies. Well, some people Are really going to like My new professional Fake toenail Oh it's going to look
Starting point is 01:10:48 It's going to look really good Yeah it's going to look jamming Oh wait thank you It's going to look jamming I'm still I'm still blown away They put the dust Off the other nails
Starting point is 01:10:55 Into all their fake nails They don't do that It's a hell of a It's a hell of a way To keep that authentic nail Look Like the resin Will only take you so far
Starting point is 01:11:04 But today's Fact of the day About the belly buttons is the sort of belly button you've got. The depth. Maybe you've got a real deepie. I've got a deepie. You've got a big deepie? I've got a big deepie. Yeah, I've got a deepie. You've got a sinkie?
Starting point is 01:11:15 Yeah, but you had an outie. So I had an outie way back in the day. And then when I had a hernia operation as a kid, I was just like, can you just pull that in while you're in there? Just give me a bit of a nip tuck. And I got a free nip tuck on the public health system. Yeah. So they tucked it in.
Starting point is 01:11:35 Yeah. I guess they just pull a thing in there. I'm guessing he was in there on the groin and they must have just yanked it in. Because what? That's what they can do. Because I had an outie and it looked like a teddy, like a... A balloon knot. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:48 A balloon knot. No, it looked like, it was like a button, you know, like a wood dome button you'd have on a cardigan. One of those. Oh, like an actual button. Yeah. Look, look at this little diagram. This tells you what kind of belly button you've got.
Starting point is 01:12:02 Oh, okay. So there's an outie and then there's a horizontal. You know the people that have got like a- A line. But those are people with abs normally. Or a vertical. I've got it. Show me the other ones.
Starting point is 01:12:14 Then there's the light bulb, which is bigger at the top, that kind of tapers off at the bottom. Then there's the round, and then there's the deep hollow, which is the deep- I think I've got a round. I'm deep hollow. You've got a deep hollow. Even when I'm, no matter what size I am, if I'm lighter or heavier, it's always deep.
Starting point is 01:12:27 So that's what it says as well, is that the depth of your belly button has got nothing to do with your weight. When you put on a lot of weight, it should stay about the same. But what causes an innie versus an outie, and there's these old myths, but they have said the way that your belly button looks is mostly by chance. A belly button is essentially a scar and it depends on how your skin grows when it heals. These things have nothing to do with how your belly button turns out. It is not the result of how the doctor clamped the umbilical cord. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Because they do, they follow a procedure. It's always the same length down, clamp, cut or whatever or leave it to dry and fall off. The result of how the doctor or anybody else cut the umbilical cord or the result of how your parents took care of the umbilical cord. Yeah, right. Because that's something that I don't think I was ever told in antenatal class is that that little thing hangs on for a few days.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Yeah, it's weird when you see it and then it rots off basically. It dries out and then it just snaps off, yeah. Because I always thought that when I was young that, yeah, your dad had done a crap job of snipping it. No, it's not. Nothing to do with it. It totally isn't because it always breaks off at the same point. And then it all just depends on how your skin heals,
Starting point is 01:13:40 whether or not it stays on the outside or if it goes back in. You have to get a little cosmetic surgery like Fletch. Get a little push in. It can change. It can change from an innie to an outie. Is that when you get a bear gut? Or a bear bear? Pregnancy, but they say that's the increasing size of the uterus
Starting point is 01:13:59 that can cause the belly button to pop out, not the fact that it's tight, that it's been pushed from behind. Is that why mine popped out? When you were pregnant. You were pregnant at 11. I don't think so. Enlargement of the liver and spleen can pop the belly button out. So if one day you wake up and your belly button's popped out
Starting point is 01:14:18 and you're like, oh, I've put on a little bit of weight, it might not be because it has to be pushed from behind. Do you think I've got a like a gigantic massive spleen or something no why when mine was popped oh when you put that as a child yeah no because yours was always out it didn't go from any to out if yours goes from an enemy but you're not pregnant but i could have been born with a giant explain well there's there's a um a belly button world record. For the deepest? For the deepest.
Starting point is 01:14:48 The biggest belly button. What, how many? It's got a finger. It's got a whole finger. Oh no, he's got an outie. How far out is it? How out? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:14:58 Oh my God. It looks like an odd fellow. It looks like a skin-coloured odd fellow on his belly button. I would say that from... It's like a little knob. I wouldn't say. It's like a skin-coloured odd fellow on his belly button. I would say that from. It's like a little knob. Oh, that's weird. You flick it and it gets caught on things.
Starting point is 01:15:10 You knock it. It's like. Dude, that dude's skinny too, so it's not like it's. Oh, it's twisty like a kuru. Yeah, well, that's okay. I don't like that. I don't like it either. I'd get that nip-suck.
Starting point is 01:15:23 Because mine makes me feel sick. Yeah. Like if you're really giving a good clean, I'm't like it either. I'd get that nip time. Because mine makes me feel sick. Yeah. Like if you're really giving a good clean, I'm often like, ugh. And you push too far, you're like, ugh, yeah. Yeah, totally get that. Hate it. So today's fact of the day is any outy, horizontal, vertical, light bulb round or deep hollow, it's all really,
Starting point is 01:15:40 your belly button depends on how you heal. Fact of the day day, day, day, day Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Vaughan and I at the weekend purchase, we both purchased the same thing and it's arriving apparently today. We talked about this when we experienced one in a hotel. I think we lightly touched on it. At Christchurch.
Starting point is 01:16:14 On air. That's right. We stayed at the Crowne Plaza, I believe it's pronounced. Yes. Beautiful. Oh, gorgeous. And you didn't, how you didn't experience this. No, I didn't.
Starting point is 01:16:23 Because you went in the executive. No, I didn't. No, I wasn't. Radio suites that Vaughan and I got given. How you didn't experience this is you went in the executive radio suites that Vaughan and I got given. How do these rooms get decided? Well, you get an executive radio suite when you've been in the business for 10 years. It's sort of a congratulations. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:35 Yeah, but where were we last time? Dunedin, and I got the bath, and you got nothing. Oh, yeah, I didn't get a bath. Actually, they mistook Vaughan for a producer. Put them in the machete rooms. Yeah, one of the producers got a radio executive room. But Vaughan took it for the team. Disappointed, yeah. Oh, well, it's nice every now and then to remind it of your humble roots, you know.
Starting point is 01:16:55 Yeah. But so in this, and we did mention this, in this Christchurch room, there were, like, body pillows. Like, double, double pillows. And they were amazing. I had, like, three of them. But they're pregnancy pillows, like double, double pillows. And they were amazing. I had like three of them. But they're pregnancy pillows, right? Kind of, yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:10 Yeah, they're long pillows and you like put a leg over them. Now, when Sade was pregnant with both of our kids, she had one, but I was like in my early 30s then and I didn't have lower back issues. And, of course, I mean, you wouldn't have stolen it from your pregnant wife. You know, you wouldn't have had a go on this pillow. She rolls over so much. She leaves the pillow behind and then finders keepers. Daddy snuggles up.
Starting point is 01:17:34 It's just great for a snuggle. They're great. And so anyway, because I searched for these pillows after we stayed in this hotel, my targeted advertising has been relentless for pillows. Pillows all the time. Pillows. And then Anne popped up and
Starting point is 01:17:50 Briscoes were having a sale. So Briscoes sells them? Well, everyone sells them. You can get them at Kmart. You can get them everywhere. And I'd put them off for so long and then I saw this pillow and I was like, okay, this looks pretty legit. And there's a sale. And so I just bought it. But can you get cool pillowcases?
Starting point is 01:18:08 Well, you can make your own pillowcase if you've got a sewing machine. Bring out the old sewing machine. You might need to get out the banana for us. No, they had pillowcases matching. And so I just got one. And then so I sent it to Vaughan. And then he got one as well. And they're coming today ugly i did i
Starting point is 01:18:26 spoke to chade about this i was like oh you're gonna have a big body pillow on your bed she's like yeah i know and i can't guarantee when we're in parmesan north for our bangers bingo tour uh that we'll get a radio executive pillow sweet what are you gonna bring it so i might check it in yeah i might check it in in the suitcase might check it in, in the suitcase. Too much. This would probably be the whole suitcase. It's like a metre, one metre forty. Like, that's nearly a person. Yeah, it's a little person. I guess that's the difference.
Starting point is 01:18:55 Maybe this is why you're so excited about it, is I have a two metre person in my bed. I've got a person in my bed too, but I twist when I sleep. That's my problem. And people get too hot. Yeah, so you just chuck a leg over the pillow. The pillow doesn't get hot and heat up. You need to sew a
Starting point is 01:19:12 tennis ball to your t-shirt. No, that's for snorers. No, but that's so that you don't twist. No, but I don't twist like that. I twist like... What are you going to go to sleep with a tennis ball on your t-shirt? Absolutely. That's ridiculous. Now this pillow is going to be the answer. Yeah, so stand by for pillow reviews because I'm so excited about this.
Starting point is 01:19:30 I've been chucking a leg either side of a standard pillow and it doesn't quite have the same. No, but if you can get an arm over it as well, then that takes care of what your arm's got to do. Why don't you just use two pillows? And then you know it's an ugly pillow. No, no, no. They move independently.
Starting point is 01:19:41 It's not the same. They move independently of each other. There needs to be some sort of, not rigid, but there needs to be some sort of stability down the middle. I don't know. When it arrives, can I have a go? Or is it weird if I stay? Oh, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:19:53 You can have a go. While it's in its plastic packaging. Oh, that's not going to be the full experience. No, you're not going to have the full experience. It's memory foam too, as I believe. Yeah, it's memory foam. That's why I'm so excited about this. Wow.
Starting point is 01:20:06 I expect to hear about some very good sleeps from the boys. Don't fall in love with your pillow. Yeah, no, don't. You could fall in love with your pillow. Put holes in it. Put a little face on it and stuff. A little kiss, a bit of lipstick on it. Yeah, we'll go out for dinner.
Starting point is 01:20:20 Like that Ryan Gosling movie? Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking of. Lars and the Real Girl. Fletch and the Big Pillow. Play it. ZM's Fletch Vaughn and Hayley. Well, the celebrity, the pay for celebrity greeting website, what's it called again?
Starting point is 01:20:35 Cameo. Cameo. Just had an absolute COVID brain freeze. Can I still say that? Yeah, you can. Yeah, four months on. They are now launching the ability for you to pay for an extended 10-minute long two-way video chat with celebrities.
Starting point is 01:20:52 That would be horrible. So awkward. So awkward. Can you imagine being the celebrity? I'm just looking at the list here. One of the top guys, because I think it's taken me through to the Australian ones, Honey Badger, you know that guy.
Starting point is 01:21:04 Yeah, Nick Cummins. But he's charging $243 plus. That's just for a video, though. That's not even a call. But he might be able to keep a conversation going for 10 minutes because he's such a larrikin lad. But imagine ringing like a shy celebrity who just wanted a bit of pocket money. Or those influencers.
Starting point is 01:21:20 It is embarrassing looking at these featured ones, people that are on sale. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? Like I've discounted my fees. Yeah. I'm going to say, and I hate it when people say this, but I'll Chappelle Corby.
Starting point is 01:21:34 Oh, my God. Are you kidding me? See, that's it. 49 bucks. But then are there questions you're not allowed to ask? But see, also, if we could get a 10-minute video call, that could just be an interview, right? No, because I think they've got rules about it.
Starting point is 01:21:46 You're not allowed to broadcast it. Well, yeah, if you're going to use it for commercial reasons, you're not allowed or you have to pay more. Andrew Johns is like NRL royalty Newcastle Knights legendary league player. Yeah. What does he earn? Tons of money, he's got business. What does he need to be Earning $249 for a
