Starting point is 00:00:00 For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History. All episodes now available on iHeartRadio, Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

They're probably going to do your concrete today, and you've just died out of that. Answer it. You might want to answer it. No, it's raining. It's raining. They're not going to do it in the rain. So, yeah, there's a big old willy.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Big, thick knob on it. Big, thick knob on that one. And another willy. That would be great for my golfer's elbow. Putting a dick and balls wheat sack on my tennis sack golfers. I think playing with a willy is probably what caused the golfer's elbow. It would be. Putting a dick and balls wheat sack on my tennis sack golfers. I think playing with a willy is probably what caused the golfer's elbow. No, left hand. Okay, right.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Yeah, if it was right, you'd be right. Primarily right there. And then a smaller willy. Yeah, maybe that small willy would be great on my golfer's elbow. Yeah, it would be. So I don't need a giant one for that. Yeah. No, it's not that size.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Like wheat sacks and stuff and a little egg apron there that I can pop around me hips and go down and collect the eggs from the chickens. This is so nice. It's a lovely letter as well. A beautiful letter. Tanya Tansy. Won't go into details of it but
Starting point is 00:02:39 a very, very special letter. Those sorts of letters are absolutely lovely to receive. Thank you very much. As well as these beautiful gifts you've sent us. I can't wait to head home and get ready for a bit of a meditation and heat up my cock and balls in the microwave for a bit. Do you put a cup of water in? Do you know what? I hate that.
Starting point is 00:02:57 I hate a steamy wheat bag. And it doesn't stay hot as long as if you just burn them. I just burn them. I burn them. Tanya's included. This must be a little bit of a side hustle for Tarn them. I just burn them. I burn them. Tanya's included. This must be a little bit of a side hustle for Tarns. I'll say it again if you guys want to search it up. Support the fam.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Hutton Homewares. H-U-T-T-O-N? Yes. I thought it was a packet of Hutton sausages. You got very excited because you thought we were getting lunch. Got seven cages of sausages. All wheat bags should be heated with half a mug of water in the microwave with them. Wheat bags should not be overheated.
Starting point is 00:03:27 If in doubt, heat in 30-second intervals until desired temperature is reached. Wheat bags can also be used as cold packs. Leave in the freezer and have ready for bumps, bruises, or puffy eyes. Oh, that would be so nice for a hangover. Imagine that. Cocker balls on your head. A nice cold cock. The balls on your eyes and the-
Starting point is 00:03:43 Your tea bag self. The shaft running down your nose Oh That's going to be just lovely Do I look like Mr Snuffleupagus? You do yeah Yeah Thanks Tams
Starting point is 00:03:52 God it's good to hear Christchurch City Council Have come to their senses You can't have a sit down Santa parade You can have a sit down Ticketed indoor Santa parade Indoors? That's bloody silly.
Starting point is 00:04:07 You would only get to the end of the hall and have to do a U-turn. Well, I think it's more of like a show. Sounds like a circus situation. Goodness. But no, it's getting back to the old-fashioned. Well, Christchurch City Council at the moment wearing it because people aren't happy with the temperature of the pool. They want it up.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah, well, it's cold. It's winter. It's winter. What have they got in there? Well, I don't... I could probably have a little Google, but yeah, they're not happy. Heat up the pool. You know, they just need to boil a jug of water.
Starting point is 00:04:36 This is like people who bitch about the price of tomatoes in winter. This is a seasonal situation. This is a seasonal thing. There's winter sports. So, apparently 27.5 degrees. Oh, barmy. That's nice, right? I don't like to be too hot when I'm swimming.
Starting point is 00:04:53 You wouldn't do laps in a bloody spa pool. If you're doing laps, you warm up anyway, don't you? It's that first getting in that sucks. But they want it increased. It's the aqua joggers. Yeah, well, they're not getting warm, are they? No. That'd be why, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:10 God, I used to do a bit of aqua jogging when I was at high school, yeah. Okay, why? Just for fun, have a gas. Go up and down the pool, chatting with the old ladies, the old gals. Do you get a deep head and have to have one of those little floaty vests on? Yeah, that sort of kept you up. And then whatals do you need to go deep in and have to have one of those
Starting point is 00:05:25 little floaty vests on yeah that sort of kept you up and then what do you just like run in the water yeah you sort of jog and stuff
Starting point is 00:05:31 and you could have flutter boards it seems like something that either old people or people with joint issues do because it's not hard on the joints
Starting point is 00:05:40 is it no impact low low low no impact wow that's how I got this hot bod. Coming up. Also, did you just go,
Starting point is 00:05:48 how old were you when you went aqua jogging? Like 16, 17. Did you just go because you were like, I want the best body there? Yeah, yeah. I was shredding,
Starting point is 00:05:55 shredding for seventh form. That I got to admire. Being like, I'll go and hang out with all the old girls who are sagging. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just to look hot by comparison.
Starting point is 00:06:03 I'd put on a tiny little bikini and be like, hey ladies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just to look hot by comparison. I'd put on a tiny little bikini and be like, hey ladies. Oh, Ethel. What a lovely set of bloomers. Coming up on the show, the top six in the New Zealand Ice Cream and Gelato Awards
Starting point is 00:06:15 at the weekend. Yeah, some really wacky flavours. Oh, out the gate flavours. Yeah, 300 different flavours. The top six wackiest ice cream flavours I probably wouldn't go for on a hot summer's day that were at the ice cream awards.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Oh, Jesus. Alright, it's coming up next on the show, though. Wow, I got bad news. Hayley's cancelled. Am I? Yep, finally. Finally.
Starting point is 00:06:37 It's been a long time coming, I reckon. Yeah, this is the final nail in the coffin. And Carween as well at the social media desk. In fact, a lot of white girls could be cancelled after this. Something you two love
Starting point is 00:06:47 has caused you to be cancelled. You would say there is an obsession with true crime podcasts. So many podcasts out there are true crime. Yeah. What was the first ever true crime serial? Would be my first podcast I ever got
Starting point is 00:07:07 hopped into. Yeah, and then what was their second one? They did a second one after that. They did another serial, but it was about, the first one was Adad Saeed, and the second one was about a guy done for deserting his post in Afghanistan. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:24 And just his story. He said he was like taken. Yeah. But they're saying he just took off. So it was just a big unsolved mystery. That started the avalanche of true crime podcasts. I'm listening to three at the moment. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:37 I'm listening to The Teacher's Trial, which is about, you know, there was The Teacher's Pet about the- That's a fascinating story. You've got to listen to the teacher's trial. But presented, well, the teacher's pet was presented documentary style. Documentary style. And now the teacher's trial is following the trial. So I'm listening to that.
Starting point is 00:07:55 So that's not exactly the problematic ones that have been identified in this article. Well, the one I listened to this morning on the Mr. Boland podcast that was a woman being murdered in her apartment at university. And then the one I listened to last night was a woman being murdered as she was walking home from a club. Who presents them? And how do they
Starting point is 00:08:15 present them? Men? Yeah. Into a microphone. And seriously? Well one I listened to, Case File, very serious. That's the Australian guy. Yes. The Mr. Boland's kind of like, this is crazy.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Who are the girls? My favourite murder. My favourite murder. That's, is that. So it is more along the lines of your my favourite murders. Right. Because they say, people have said and experts have said there's problems with these and the fact that literally people are being murdered, families are left behind traumatised decades later.
Starting point is 00:08:52 They might be covering an old murder, but to a family, it still happened to their family, so it's inescapable. And they tune in to hear people laughing about it, basically. Oh, no, I don't listen to those. I'm not cancelled. I'm uncancelled. Uncancelled me. You're uncancelled.
Starting point is 00:09:04 I only listen to the serious ones. What about Carwen? Is she cancelled? Carwen at the social media desk? Do you do a My Favourite Murder? I don't even listen to the podcast. Oh, okay. What do you do?
Starting point is 00:09:13 Oh, you watch the shows? Yeah, or I just, like, follow it in real time. Like, you know, like, follow the news. Yeah. So you're doing it, aren't you? You're killing these people.
Starting point is 00:09:21 No. You are. You're killing them and then you're, like, listening to it. This is the modern equivalent of the murderer returning? You're killing these people. No. You are. You're killing them and then you're like listening to it. This is the modern equivalent of the murderer returning to the scene of the crime. Shh. She's going to come for me next.
Starting point is 00:09:32 But it is probably quite problematic that that podcast is called My Favourite Murders, right? Yes. So they're saying the ones that are really light-hearted and like, well, you'll never guess what happened next. I mean, they're never laughing about the murders. But they do have the lighthearted banter before they get into it. Yeah. Joyful way.
Starting point is 00:09:51 And then somebody said, one of the people who originally was up on TikTok that kind of made experts go, they've got a decent point, is somebody said, my mum's close friend was murdered and I can't find a single person talking about it without them laughing and then interrupting with a HelloFresh sponsorship in the middle. Yeah. Well, that's the thing, they're monetising murder.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Yeah. Aren't they? They always do it like the one I had this morning was a cliffhanger. Yeah. Jumping into a HelloFresh commercial. Oh, wow. So they hook you.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Yeah. And then you've got to listen to the promo. Right. Did you get a discount code? Yeah, I got it. Do you guys want it? Oh you're going to listen to the promo. Right. Did you get a discount code? Yeah I got it. Do you guys want it? I'll send it to the group. Hello Fresh discount codes. It's like briskos. You're not going to get Hello Fresh at full price otherwise you're ripped off right?
Starting point is 00:10:36 No. You only ever go when there's a sale or you've got someone's big old discount code. Yeah like a 40. Like a 40. Yeah that's what you need. I've only, I got a 10. Oh, hardly worth it. Hardly worth it. Speaking of food, science has worked out what makes it taste just a little bit better.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Salt. No, it's nothing. Next, move on to the next topic. It's not salt. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Well, this news out of the Oxford University is probably not going to go down too well with you at the dinner table because a team of researchers have found that eating with your mouth open can actually make food taste better.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Wow. My mum used to give me a clip around the ears. Yeah, not good manners. Not good manners. Why are you sucking in a bit of air and aerating it? So they say that chewing with your mouth open releases more volatile organic compounds. What's that? So it helps aromatic compounds reach the back of your nose.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Oh, yeah. I know what you mean, though, because you know when you can sort of taste things a bit more. So that kickstarts the olfactory sensory neurons and heightens the experience of eating. Of the flavour. So you're just letting, because the mouth's open, it's like the air, the senses are rushing back there. It's carrying it back. The only time I eat with my mouth open is when you eat something and it's too hot. And you're like.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yeah. But you don't want to spit it out. So you keep chewing. And you're not getting too much taste there. It's just pure food. The tongue's gone. The tongue's dead at that point. Normally something deep fried, eh?
Starting point is 00:12:20 Which you think will be colder by now, but it's not. It's always like karaage chicken or something and it lands on the table and you're like, oh yeah. Hot pie. Someone's like, that's too hot.
Starting point is 00:12:31 We did that at Yum Cha the other day with soup dumplings. Yeah, be careful on those soup dumplings. Are they hot? Yeah, they're a bit hot. I always like to put
Starting point is 00:12:39 an air hole in with my chopstick. Yeah, suck a bit of soup out. To make a vent, like a volcanic vent. What about the fear of losing the soup if it's a soup dumpling? No, it's right near the top.
Starting point is 00:12:49 You've got to be, it's precision. Precision work. It's precision, yeah. So you've just got to be careful. Yeah. So are they encouraging us to, I suppose like when you sip wine, if you're doing it properly, you do the like. Same thing, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:04 You get the flavour through the mouth. I still don't know what I'm eating with my mouth open. Could you like chew, like with your mouth shut, and then just take a moment just to open your mouth and breathe in? Yeah, but in that moment I'm going to see your mashed up schnitzel and I don't want to look at it. Yeah, yeah. Sucking through your teeth.
Starting point is 00:13:23 Would breathing in through your nose do the same? No, it wouldn't push it away from the back of the nose. That's the idea of breathing in through the mouth, right, or the air going in through the mouth. It takes it up into the nose. Breathing through the nose, it pushes it away. Well, what about this? You couldn't see the food in my mouth then.
Starting point is 00:13:38 You're not getting enough air, though. I'm just going to have a little nibble on this banana. That's going to be weird. Yeah, it's the worst flavour for it. Tastes super banana-y. But it's awful, isn't it? But now try it just without breathing in. What is it?
Starting point is 00:13:52 Does it taste the same? I think it tastes the same. Okay. All right. It's a banana. It's not exactly the most complex of flavours, is it? No. I'm not listening for notes.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Yeah, yeah. You're not getting a bit of this Bit of that Bit of everything Hello Hello The New Zealand Ice Cream and Gelato Awards Began at the weekend But the winners won't be announced Until the 22nd of August There'll't be announced until the 22nd of August.
Starting point is 00:14:26 There'll be an awards gala. 22nd of August? That's a month away. I know. Was it just the tasting and the kind of judging? Yeah, the start of it, the submissions, the criteria. What do you call it where you get together with a panel of people and you... Critique?
Starting point is 00:14:40 Critique it and you... Yeah. Do you think this awards... There's definitely a word here that I can't remember. Right, do you reckon the ceremony and dinner, do they just go straight to dessert? You'd probably be bloody sick of it, wouldn't you? You'd be sick, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:53 New Zealanders, on average, eat 25 litres of ice cream per person per year. I'm not a massive fan. I love a bit of ice cream, but I don't think I'm doing 25 litres. We might get a two-litre tub, it'll last us a month as a family because we don't have it every night. You have a little scoop scoop there and a scoop scoop there. That means some people are having more than their fair share. Yeah, we don't buy ice cream, but we pop down to the local every now and then and get a cone. And get an ice cream. It all adds up. Yeah, I suppose so. Yeah, that's true. You'll get more ice cream when you're out. Yeah. Oh, and we live in the area with all the strawberry, the fresh fruit ones.
Starting point is 00:15:29 You go down and they mullet up the strawberries. Those are the best. The real fruit. Yeah. We're not counting soft serve, right? Soft serve's not an ice cream. It's a different... It's a milk.
Starting point is 00:15:40 It's a different game altogether. Yeah, it's just milk. A cold milk, really. Well, anyway, a ton ton of flavours put forward, and I thought I would give you the top six flavours that I saw that were at the ice cream awards that I'd probably give it a miss. Yeah. To be honest, if I was walking down the beach,
Starting point is 00:15:56 and I felt like an ice cream, and I popped into the store, I would not get number six, sunlight liquid flavoured. No. So it can taste like you're doing the dishes. Yeah. That's not real. Yes, it is. Who says it's not?
Starting point is 00:16:11 It's got a yellowy tinge to it. I can taste it. Yeah. And they do a palm olive one too, and the palm olive one's gentler on hands. Is it? But it's green. Wow. So you saw that, did you, on the...
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's... I heard it tasted a little squeaky. Yeah. Number five on the list of the top six flavours of the New Zealand Ice Cream Awards that I'd probably give a wide berth to. This one, I think it's the texture that got it in.
Starting point is 00:16:36 It's a little bit different. Kitty Lidder flavoured. Ooh, yeah. Ice cream. It's got chunks in it. Good crunch, though. Great crunch. It's kind of like a modern take on a hokey pokey.
Starting point is 00:16:45 You going the old school Kitty Lidder or you going the fancy one that Fletch uses? Oh, I've got chunks in it. Good crunch, though. Great crunch. It's kind of like a modern take on a hokey pokey. You going the old school kitty litter or you going the fancy one that Fletch uses? Oh, I've got the silica. Yeah, you've got silica. Do you know what we've just got? What? Tofu. What? There's a tofu kitty litter.
Starting point is 00:16:57 What, like vegan cat litter? I suppose it is absorbent. It's super absorbent and it doesn't smell. Yeah, it's tofu and it comes in little pellets and it's dry. That must be expensive. No, it's not. That sounds boozy.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Relatively similar. Good protein too for a stir fry afterwards. Great for a little stirry afterwards if you're really caught short for ingredients. Make sure you marinate it though because it's all in the preparation
Starting point is 00:17:20 with tofu. I don't like the taste of tofu. You just haven't had it done right. You just haven't had it done properly. You just haven't had it done properly. You haven't had it marinated. Number four on the list are the top six flavours of the New Zealand Ice Cream Awards that I would probably say,
Starting point is 00:17:33 oh, no, I'm okay, thank you. Number four, celery. Celery flavour. God, I hate celery. It's such a nothing. It's just string, isn't it? Yeah. It's just a pain in the arse to the teeth.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Gets in all the gaps. I think it's got a really strong flavour, celery. Do you like it in a juice? Like if you're having a green juice, it's nice. Like in a juice or a soup? Other than that, get out. When it's in a salad? I don't like it in a salad.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Who's put it in a salad? The only acceptable thing is when you like dip it in something. Peanut butter might be your go-to. Or like a bit of Vegemite and cheese. Yeah. But the ratio of cheese has got to be well beyond that of celery. Number three on the list of the top six flavours of the New Zealand Ice Cream Awards that I'd probably say,
Starting point is 00:18:15 oh, nah, New Car Smell flavoured ice cream. Oh, I don't know. If you wanted to lick your new car for its smell taste, this is the ice cream for you. Delicious. Did you lick your new Jimny when you got it? No. You wanted to.
Starting point is 00:18:33 I saw it down in the garage. Yeah, give it a little kiss, kiss. Give the wheel a little lick. No, number two on the list of the top six flavours of the New Zealand ice cream awards that sound a little bit yuck. Cigarettes. It's the return of cigarettes in the form of ice cream. Yuck.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Do you miss puffing that dart? Get into a cigarette-flavoured ice cream. I've never done it, but you know those people when they'll finish the rest of their drink, but someone's put ciggies in it? I've done it once. Have you? I've done it once, and it went down my throat. It went down your throat?
Starting point is 00:19:06 Oh, yeah. It's a night ender though. I was like, that's me and packed a big sad and left. Goodbye. And number one on the list of the top six flavours
Starting point is 00:19:16 of the New Zealand Ice Cream Wars that I'll probably bypass are this one. Interesting choice for a flavour. COVID-19 flavoured ice cream. OG Strain. OG. Spicy. Yeah. What do we call that strain? interesting choice for a flavour COVID-19 flavoured ice cream OG strain OG spicy
Starting point is 00:19:26 yeah what do we call that strain the Wuhan strain alpha you know like alpha yeah the original before
Starting point is 00:19:34 because remember it was like this one's from China and then South Africa's like oh we've got a variant and India's like we've got a variant and South Africa was like we've got another variant
Starting point is 00:19:42 and then South Africa was like we're already working on an X variant. So they stopped contributing to the countries of which they mutated in. That original OG pangolin flavoured COVID-19 strain. We joke, but they had some disgusting flavours at the ice cream awards. It was a marmite. I reckon it would be yum. I reckon it would be yum.
Starting point is 00:20:02 There was a blue cheese and a pear and blue cheese. I can see it. No. I'd be interested. Not in an ice cream. I'd have a little. Yeah, I'd have one of those little spoons they give you at the ice cream place. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Give me back that sunlight liquid flavoured ice cream. I need to wash my mouth out. That is today's Top 6. Play it. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM. So Bill Gates, very rich man, billionaire. Used to be the world's richest man, like for a long time, right? And now it is Elon Musk.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Yeah. Is he second though? No, Elon Musk's top. Not anymore. Oh no, Jeff Bezos. Jeff Bezos. Jeff Bezos. But Bill was at the top for a while
Starting point is 00:20:53 and then was like down maybe to like third and second, hanging around there. His plan is to get off the list entirely. He's going to give away his wealth. Okay. When I say give it away, so this week alone, he's given away $6 billion, billion dollars
Starting point is 00:21:09 to his and his ex-wife, Melinda, to their foundation, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which I was just reading about it. It's pretty cool. It's pretty cool. Well, they're trying to eliminate malaria, right? They're trying to get rid of poverty, essentially, and help people lead healthy and productive lives all across the world. So on the real-time list, this is updated in real-time on Forbes.com,
Starting point is 00:21:34 the billionaires, he's currently five with $104.8 billion. Yeah, so that happened. He was up from there, but he gave away the six billion and then he went down to five. Yep. And then he tweeted not long ago, last week, saying, as I look to the future, I plan to give virtually all of my wealth to the foundation. I will move down and eventually off of the list of the world's richest people.
Starting point is 00:22:00 So he's going to give it all to the foundation, basically. Yeah. Which, in essence, is giving it away to people to help them live better lives. I mean, what's the point of having a hundred billion dollars, right? And doing nothing with it?
Starting point is 00:22:15 Well, you can't spend that. You know what I mean? Like, if you had billions and billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars, you can't spend it. How much is enough, man? I would need like one billion. You know what I mean? Just, is that all?
Starting point is 00:22:33 And I could live quite simply just with the billion. But then you'd get all these expensive tastes and houses and you'd need to upkeep it and then you'd need another billion. Half a billion. You'd need another half. No, no, I'm saying I could live on half a billion. Oh, could you? That upkeep it, and then you need another billion. Half a billion. You need another half. No, no, I'm saying I could live on half a billion. Oh, could you?
Starting point is 00:22:48 That'd be better. Comfortably? Oh, yeah. Comfortably. You could live comfortably on 500 million. Yeah, I think I could. 500 million is half a billion, eh? Yeah, 1,000 million.
Starting point is 00:23:00 It's insane amounts. Do you know what I mean? But even if he had $500 million in his account, you don't have to do anything. You can't even spend that. You still can't spend that. He'll be fine for the rest of his life. What about his kids, though?
Starting point is 00:23:14 Didn't he say they're not getting anything? I know. Wasn't he just like, oh, I don't think you're going to get rid of this because you ain't. Ruthless, eh? I'm sure they'll get something, like a house to get them started, but it wouldn't be helpful to give your kids because you ain't. Ruthless, eh? I'm sure they'll get something to, you know, like a house to get them started but it's not, it wouldn't be helpful to give

Starting point is 00:24:49 Yeah, yeah. Like electric vehicles and revolutionizing that. I'm not a huge fan of his personality, but some of his stuff's interesting. The guy in the middle literally is ripping you off

Starting point is 00:26:00 Health, it's the fibre, it's the healthy fibres going in. It's healthy health. I'm guessing for some people they don't like the texture. The pulp just is too much for them I think they should grow up I love hooning it up A big fat straw Yeah It's just like

She's pumped up on pulp. She's pumped on pulp. To me, it's like buying a nice, what's that, is it homegrown juice or Charlie's
Starting point is 00:27:34 versus like a just juice. Simply squeezed is good stuff. Or yeah, a pack of Rara. It's gross. Yeah, yeah. Trina says, absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:27:42 It's not refreshing to feel the pulp. It's an effort to drink and it feels disgusting in my mouth. Hard no. No, I love it. More of a meal. More of a meal. My family calls this floaty juice.
Starting point is 00:27:53 And now that I'm writing that, I realize it's disgusting. So I'm really sorry for ruining that for you. Floaty juice. Floaty juice. Now that's why you've got to give the pulp a quick shake. Yep. For what? Don't dilly dally because it will separate.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Yeah. Candy says, it was a note of crunchy peanut butter, Give the pulp a quick shake. Yep. For what? Don't dilly-dally because it will separate. Yeah. Oh. Candy says, it was a note of crunchy peanut butter, but a yes to pulpy orange juice. Interesting. What an indecisive one we've got there in candy. Yeah. It was anti-crunch, pro-pulp.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Natasha says, I can never drink pulpy orange juice as I can't get past the thought that the texture is like backwash. Even seeing a pulpy orange juice makes me squirm a little. If your backwash is that fibrous and pulpy, you're not flossing. That's not backwash. Someone's vomited in your glass. Holly just wants us to know, are the whole orange juices so effing overrated?
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's the least of her favourites. No, it's the premier juice. Yeah. Like really cold, freshly squeezed. Oh my God. Especially after a dusty night. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:29:20 Guava is a king juice. I hate guava. It's so thick. It's like syrupy. It's a real treat. Connor says, my fiance hates the pulp, so it's a good way of ensuring that I've got drink left alone in the fridge. Yes, good.
Starting point is 00:29:33 That's good. Good to establish that. Good to establish that. It's really hard to clean a glass that's had pulpy and you've left it. You've got to rinse before you put them in the dishwasher because otherwise...
Starting point is 00:29:45 It can cook the pulp. Yeah. Cooks the pulp into the and you've left it. Oh, yeah. You've got to rinse before you put them in the dishwasher because otherwise. It can cook the pulp. Yeah. Cooks the pulp into the glass. But worth it. Forever more. Worth it for the pulp. Pulp all the way.

Starting point is 00:30:07 Good to clarify. Now, travel's back. Travel is back. International travel is back. So many of my friends are overseas at the moment. So many. Like, my friend was just messaging me from Europe in Barcelona. Barcelona.

Starting point is 00:30:51 At the moment Everyone's overseas It's revenge travel They're calling it I just did my first International of late And you forget And I didn't go that far
Starting point is 00:30:59 I didn't go all the way To Europe But you forget about Those longer flights It's not fun. And I swear they've made them smaller. Or, no, I've got them bigger over the last couple of years. No, they've definitely made them
Starting point is 00:31:12 smaller. Haven't they squeezed in a couple of extra rows of economy? Yeah, I thought so, because I was bum to back and knees on the front seat. Because it's all in those little sliders. Imagine, like, can you imagine going on the plane and be like, okay, we've got to find three centimetres
Starting point is 00:31:27 per seat because we've got to squeeze it out on the back. Vzzz, vzzz, vzzz, vzzz. Oh, my God. Slide. Vzzz, vzzz, vzzz. Tighten that next, next, next. Oh, my God, what a repair.
Starting point is 00:31:37 That would just do your head in. It really would. They should just increase the ticket's price. And give you your knees back. Give you my knees back. Anyway, so there's been a flight attendant, a steward, who anonymously has shared some tips on flying
Starting point is 00:31:54 as people are getting back into it, including how you can, I guess, increase your odds of getting a wee upgrade. Because the thing is, it depends on the airline. Because most airlines will not do this. Just upgrade you willy-nilly. Sometimes it used to happen quite a bit.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Right. I mean, it never happened to me, but I'm trash. You know what I mean? Like on a plane. I love sweet pants on a plane. You walk on like chandles and looking like a piece of shit. And you're like, what are the chances of an upgrade And you've got that $15 bean neck thing
Starting point is 00:32:30 Around your neck The pillow What are the chances of getting up there Amongst the hoi polloi Yeah Send us some bubbles back Well yeah they're saying it's all about what you wear And the two items You should never wear on a plane
Starting point is 00:32:47 if you are hoping for an upgrade, jeans. Yeah. Seems absurd. Are there any other pants? Jeans and sneakers. Oh, wow. Okay. So they recommend wearing a dress shoe.
Starting point is 00:33:01 No way. No way. And a slack. Too uncomfortable. A trouser. Yeah, but then what if you don't get upgraded and you're stuck wearing slacks? Well, chuck your trackies in the bag.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Yeah. In the bag. And then get changed in the waiting room, yeah. They recommend for women to chuck on a blazer and a sports jacket. Oh yeah, power, power. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you walk in and you're sort of,
Starting point is 00:33:20 hello there. We just, we're off to Barcelona. I just think it just doesn't happen. Most airlines will upgrade. If airlines are going to upgrade, they're going to upgrade their frequent flyers. Yeah, they say. So if you're not one of them, don't even bother.
Starting point is 00:33:33 The two other ways of getting it is be a member of their airpoints program and to be travelling alone because then they're not going to sort of split you up. If they've got one seat free and they're looking to upgrade someone, they'll just take a single person. And you can do that thing
Starting point is 00:33:51 a few days out on Air New Zealand Anyway where you can like chuck in an auction, right? For like an upgrade. Yeah, one up. That's what it's called. And you can be like,
Starting point is 00:33:58 I'm willing to pay, slide the slider right to the left, $200 absolute maximum for an upgrade. You'll never get it because someone's going to pay $1,000 for it. Yeah. Silly fools. They say, yeah, carry your trackies in the bag.
Starting point is 00:34:13 And even if you make it to first class or business class or whatever, you can get changed afterwards once you're there and then be the trash you truly are and enjoy the nice meal. I would say a better way don't worry about
Starting point is 00:34:27 getting upgraded to business class get yourself a yummy yummy sleeping pill and any class can be business class. Yeah. In your dreams.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Yeah. Because you're out cold. You're asleep from when it takes off to when it lands. Either that or you piss yourself because you can't wake up.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Small price to pay. This is my fear. This is why I packed my business slacks. No, that is my fear. So I can I packed my business slacks. No, that is my fear. So I can get into my business slacks. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. The world's most chaotic game show.

Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. I'll sing it loud in case you don't already know. Pack up your and go. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Play ZM. The University of Missouri Columbia. Great university. I looked at going there myself. Of course you did. And then I went to Toy Fakari instead. It's track team. You were offered an athletics.
Starting point is 00:38:23 I was. Yeah. But if it were none of me. Hurdles. And then I love to Toi Whakaari instead. It's track time. You were offered an athletics course. I was. Yeah. But if it were none of me. Hurdles. And then I love to jump over things. Yeah. These little legs of mine. Anyway, two paths diverged in a wood, you know, and I went to Toi Whakaari.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Anyway, they have done some research looking at how relationships are formed and what keeps them together. And this specific one looked at, they're calling it desirability. Your mate value is your level of desirability. Right. It's basically like, are you a one or a ten? Okay, right. In colloquial terms. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:59 He's a seven. He's a seven, yeah. That's what they're looking at. That's your mate value. Yeah, he's a ten, but. He's a ten, but. Da-da-da-da-da, which brings him down to a seven. That's what they're looking at. That's your mate value. He's a 10, but. He's a 10, but. Which brings him down to a four. He's a 10, but he's a murderer.
Starting point is 00:39:10 So he's a three. I mean, you maybe say zero or one, but. He's got some redeeming qualities. Right. Always make sure there's a drink waiting for you when you get home. Yeah, he does. Right. Flower buys you flowers.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Yeah, exactly. Kills people. Kills people. Kills people who wrong him in even the slightest manner. But he's good to his mama. You know, he's good to his mama. So you get your mate value, which is basically your number. And they found that the people who have long-lasting and successful relationships
Starting point is 00:39:38 have a similar mate value. Similar number? Yeah. So basically, like, if you are with someone who's quote, I hate this term, but in your league, like similar hotness to you basically, you are more likely to stay together than if you were like punching. Right.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Because there was that story, I can't remember if we talked about it last week, that guy on TikTok, he was like wearing it for basically going out with someone way hotter than he was. Oh, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like an absolute 10. It seems mean to say, but she was like a 9 or a 10
Starting point is 00:40:14 and he was like probably like a 10 or 3. Had her confidence been destroyed by a couple of douchebags along the trail though? Oh, yeah, I don't know. Was she not seeing herself as the 10 that she clearly was? Because of the mistreating, you know, at the hands of some douchebags prior. They're saying this is a modern thing. So if you go back to tribes that are not influenced by Kylie Jenner and the likes.
Starting point is 00:40:40 And Instagram. Or years ago before we had the internet and magazines and TV and the likes. Hot people were still hot though, right? Hot people were hot, but it was all about community. So you would always end up with someone who's in your community and you would look at things like, you know, like, can I bear a child of yours? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Can you get me food? How good would it be if these were your first date questions? of yours? Yeah. Can you get me food? Can I? How good would it be if these were your first date questions? How good are you at fetching me a meal? Yeah, food-wise, what can you supply me with? You got good sperm?
Starting point is 00:41:15 Yeah, I hunt, I can shoot a duck. Speaking of which, those hips, are they childbearing? Yeah. Nice and wide. Like a pop of baby in there.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Yeah, yeah. If a saber-toothed tiger comes into our cave, are you going to be able to protect me? Yeah. But now it's all about desirability. Right. So does it say that couples that are vastly different numbers are less likely to stay together? Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Because someone's going to get jealous. Yeah. Or they're just going to find another nine or a ten. It's like a clear separation. Right. From a four to a ten. Four to a nine. Does that mean other things could be bringing your number up? Like your bank account?
Starting point is 00:41:58 Yeah, but again, that's not there to last. No, yeah, that's true. For the ten to get as much money as they can from the three. Just do what I do. Solid five with big nine energy. Yeah. Yeah, you've got big nine energy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:15 I don't care about enough stuff. It's a confusing dynamic. And then once you've got them, bog them down in admin. Yeah, admin and paperwork. What a nightmare it would be to leave me at this point. Yeah. Mortgaged to the absolute hilt. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:27 All these things. Where's it going to take all these things? Ah, it's too much admin. And then before you know it, you're dead. That is life by Vaughan Smith. That's pretty good. I reckon Aaron and I are rocking about the same number. Because he's hot.
Starting point is 00:42:45 So am I. Yeah, I was going to say. And by saying that, you've also complimented yourself. Because he's hot. So am I. Yeah, I was going to say, and by saying that, you've also complimented yourself. I have. Yeah. Couple of hotties. Couple of...
Starting point is 00:42:52 Couple of hotties. You're going to tell me what... Couple of red hot 7.8s. Yeah. Another 10 years. You guys are going to be very well sought after by the swinging community.
Starting point is 00:43:00 I think we will be. I think you'll be invited to all the parties. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn you'll be invited to all the parties. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Look at the look on your face. You just got a little gifty from your best friend, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:43:11 Vaughan gave me a pen. Yeah, I stole a pen from a hotel. But it looks like a pencil. But it looks like a pencil. Like an old school American pencil. I was using it
Starting point is 00:43:21 at a hotel and then I put it in my pocket and my daughter's like, Dad, you can't take that pen. I said, I'll take another one. Badass, Dad. You taught her to steal. And then I said, do you want it?
Starting point is 00:43:31 She was like, no. I'll have it. It looks like a pencil. What's the nib made of? The eraser? It's a rubber. It's actually an eraser. Oh, it is too.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Yeah. But it's not a pencil. So it's kind of like, then you've got to find a pencil to erase it. It's so great. Erase it. But yeah, it's a pen that looks like a pencil. You've made us of like, then you've got to find a pencil to erase it. It's so great. Erase it. But yeah, it's a pen that looks like a pencil. You've made his bloody day, haven't you? You really have.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Just the simple things. It's bloody Make-A-Wish Foundation over here. What do you get the man with everything? A pen that looks like a pencil. Wow. What am I talking about? Oh, 180s. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:59 A celeb has done a full 180 on their very strong stance. Bear Grylls, the survivalist. Yeah. Outdoorsy guy. He's constantly- Man-verse-wild. Yeah, drinking his own urine. Drinking his own wheeze.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Although let's always, I like to always just put a little asterisk next to Bear Grylls. When he came to New Zealand, he got picked up and taken away. Well, yeah, if you know the west coast of the South Island He said he was running through but literally I don't think you could follow that line He was helicoptering I'm also okay with him Just being like so if you were here You'd do this and now I'm catching a helicopter
Starting point is 00:44:36 To another park I wouldn't care I'm not watching for that He still gets into the wild Well he has been a famous vegan. He's written books about it. He's been a huge advocate and a spokesperson for the vegan lifestyle. Yeah, big time.
Starting point is 00:44:54 He did it for health reasons. He was like, I just want to look after myself. He was raw juicing, vegetables, the works. I would have thought a survivalist would have just been also an opportunist, just taking what you can. I think he sometimes ate some bugs and stuff. Right. But in his life, when he's in his kitchen, the boys are vegan.
Starting point is 00:45:14 Well, now he is actively against, he says, nuts, grains, wheat and vegetables and is eating a mostly carnivorous diet. So he's back on the sauce. He's back on the sauce, mate. So he said that they impacted his health in a really negative way. So he got COVID a couple of years ago, and he said he like upped it.
Starting point is 00:45:39 And he was like, I'm going to raw juice. I'm going to eat all this healthy stuff, vegetable food, really give myself all these nutrients. And he got kidney not kidney stones yeah, mega sore kidneys, almost kidney stones. Right. He was really sick. It was not feeling good from
Starting point is 00:45:56 it all. And then he was reading about the carnivorous diet. Okay. Where you eat exclusively meat basically. Kind of like a keto or a paleo? Yeah, so he eats eggs, dairy, butter, a bit of fruit
Starting point is 00:46:11 and predominantly meat. He's done a full 180. He has liver every second day. Like chicken liver or whatever liver. He's like against nuts. Why is like against nuts. Why is he against nuts?
Starting point is 00:46:29 Super against nuts and grains, wheat and vegetables. He's probably sick of them. He just said that they just made him absolutely sick. Oh, right. And he's done all this research and he's absolutely, he's done a 180 on his diet, on his beliefs. Producer Anna, your sister's done a 180 on this too, hasn't she?
Starting point is 00:46:43 Yes, yes. She is currently with child and is appreciating meat more than ever before. She was vegetarian for probably, I'd say, 8 to 10 years. Oh, wow. Yeah, yeah. And now she's into it. And do you reckon this will be the end of it? Like she'll stay on the meats?
Starting point is 00:47:02 My mum is really hoping so. I love how mum's like, oh, make your casserole. Yeah, exactly. It's Christmas and also mum's very concerned about everyone's iron levels at all times. Mothers are always worried about iron. Yeah, especially for their daughters. Absolutely. So yeah, she's just gone down to stock up the freezer.
Starting point is 00:47:20 So it's all very meat heavy. Meaty. Yeah. Wow. Okay, so another 180. Another 180. Well, this is what we wanted to ask is when have you done a total 180 on something maybe you believed
Starting point is 00:47:32 in or your stance on something, your political views, the way you eat, the way you live your life. Yeah, like a religious 180. A religious 180? Yeah, or just, yeah, a way you lived, a certain lifestyle. My parents did this politically and I'll out them. Did they?
Starting point is 00:47:46 They were national voters for years, and they are now that they're beneficiaries. Your dad did run a finance company. You don't run into too many finance companies that are Greens voters, do you? No. They vote Green now. Do they? Yeah. Wow, okay.

Bonjour, you greenie. You bloody token smoking greenie. Why just, they're going through this leadership thing at the moment.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Why do they have to have two leaders? It annoys me so much. Have one leader. One leader and then have a dick bitty. They're about representation. And so if they were to have just one male leader or one
Starting point is 00:48:34 Pakeha leader. But if you have a female leader then, one leader. But then the boys aren't represented. But there doesn't have to be a male leader anymore. No, it doesn't have to. The only one has to be a male leader in it anymore. No, it doesn't have to. The only one has to be Māori, yeah. Yeah. Then just pick a Māori leader.
Starting point is 00:48:51 One is enough. You don't have two All Blacks captains. The Pākehās. They're still in the party. Oh, my God. But there's nothing saying that the other leader has to be Pākehā. No, no, they can have two female Māori leaders. Or have 10 leaders.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Have 10 leaders. Well, they are. They're sharing. Oh, God, no wonder no one votes for them. God, yes. What if people vote for them? Layden, breathe. Layden, breathe.
Starting point is 00:49:17 I'm going to throw my plastics in the ocean after this. God, it gets me riled up. I don't care enough. This phoner has turned into an absolute don't get Fletch started. All right. On the Green Party. Maybe you were a Green Party supporter and you did a 180 when they couldn't choose just one leader.
Starting point is 00:49:35 0800 dials at M. We want to take your calls. It's appropriate you're wearing a blue jumper today. I don't. I'm not saying who I vote for. 0800 dials at M. 9696.

Starting point is 00:50:07 Vote Green. Like maybe you were at Beer Grills. You were a vegan or a vegetarian. And you changed it. Go on, mate. But what have you done a 180 on? Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Beer Grills used to be vegan.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Oh, staunch vegan. Yeah. Now he's all about the meats. Meats, stearies, eggs, you name it,, staunch vegan. Yeah. Now he's all about the meats. Meats, stearies, eggs, you name it, he's eating it.
Starting point is 00:50:29 Yeah. Let's take a call. Anonymous is called. What's your 180? Is that me? Yes. Hi. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:50:39 So I gave up men for women. Oh, okay. Me too. Me too. Yeah, Vaughton, you haven't done a man for a while, have you? It's been, okay. Me too. Me too. Yeah, Vaughton, you haven't done a man for a while, have you? It's been so long.
Starting point is 00:50:48 It's been a while. It's been so long. I think it's been about 40 years and six months. I'm life on earth that I haven't, you know. So you were with men exclusively before this? Yes, yep. And then what flipped the coin? I went and worked at a Girl Scout camp in America. Oh, yeah, yeah, yep. And then what flipped the coin? I went and worked at a Girl Scout camp in America.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cute little badges everywhere. And so obviously you met a particular whorman. Yes, yeah, I did, yep. Oh, wow. And has she awoken you? Yeah, yeah, I guess she did, yeah. And decided to make the switch permanent.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Yeah, girl. Wow, okay, 180, just like that. Congratulations. Yeah, good stuff. I mean, I love a man. But we're trash, is that what you're about to say? They're just so much work. We are.
Starting point is 00:51:40 There's definitely a lot of advantages. Yeah, we're a lot. I'm sorry about us. We're all soft and smooth. Maybe I'll make the flip. I can highly recommend it. This is soft and smooth, man. This is soft and smooth, man.
Starting point is 00:51:54 Vaughn's had laser. You've had laser. Yeah, but not on the front. Soft and smooth in some areas. Yeah, some areas, yeah. We're talking about when you've done a full 180 on something, maybe a lifestyle choice or a decision. Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Like Bear Grylls, vegan to carnivore. Few of those out there. Staunch vegetarian for 10 years plus, reads this text. Four months into my first pregnancy, I craved fried chicken like you. Oh. I can't believe. And then after baby was born, my insane breastfeeding craving was steak. Medium rare.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Oh, bloody. Oh, medium rare's not bloody. Right. Pink fry. Yeah, yeah, a little bit of pink in them. I'm going to go with breakfast steak. How about you guys? Keep saying steak. Keep saying steak. Breakfast steak's with a fried egg on top. Oh, we're going to
Starting point is 00:52:40 have to get that. Yeah. We're going to have to get some potatoes. Wait, you're on this week's This is a journey to health. Stay with me. I'll guide the trail to the journey? Yeah. We're going to have to get that. Wait, you're on this week's... This is a journey to health. A journey to health. Stay with me. I'll guide the trail to the journey of health. Breakfast steaks. Somebody said, I watched Shortland Street.
Starting point is 00:52:56 I was passionate about it right up until Nicole married herself, where she had the little ceremony where she married herself. Was that to get a student allowance? No, no, no. Why did she do that? She'd been in a series of failed relationships, so she needed to learn to love herself, but rather than just be like, I'm going to go to Bali, she married herself.
Starting point is 00:53:10 And that was the point where I just... Oh, my God. Wow, you really put a line in the sand today. Get off the greens. Just choose one leader. I grew up in the Bible Belt of the US. Oh, wow. I saw so many 180ss and once I hit university,
Starting point is 00:53:26 I pulled a big 180 when people learned that there was more to life than, you know, religion and megachurch every week. Yes, Fletch, I believe what you've just gestured may indeed be a learning factor. I hated yoga, despised all the namaste, flaky yogi bullshit, and now I'm a yoga teacher. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:53:48 Maybe they approach it differently. Maybe they don't go down the traditional namaste. Yeah. Okay, Daniel, what was your 180? So for about 10 years, I just lived a basically unhealthy life, drinking, eating crap, and then about six weeks ago, I started intermittent fasting and keto,
Starting point is 00:54:04 and I lost 20 kilos in six weeks. Man, I've done the fasting and the keto before. It's tough. It's hard yakka. I can't do fasting. I get hangry. You haven't eaten today then? Nah, I eat at 12 o'clock. 12 o'clock?
Starting point is 00:54:19 I think whatever works for you though, eh? It's clearly working for you. Do you feel great? Oh yeah, I feel a lot more healthy. My sleepings Yeah. Like, it's clearly working for you. Do you feel great? Oh, yeah. I feel a lot more healthier. My sleepings change. Yeah. That's over three kgs a week. That's like about 500 grams a day that you're losing.
Starting point is 00:54:33 That's insane. Is that too fast, though? Or did you have it to lose? Like, what's the... No, I feel good. Yeah, I was like 120. I just want you to make sure you're looking after yourself, Daniel. I am.
Starting point is 00:54:43 I am looking after myself. Amazing. Daniel, thanks so much for sharing. Rose, tell us what was your 180? I was deathly against motorbikes and then my partner put me on one and told me to
Starting point is 00:54:59 give it a go and now I own my second motorbike. Boom, boom, babe. Rose, you be careful with those things. I know, I get so, I would never get one. I was like you used to be, Rose. Yeah, I've never been on one. Honestly, after
Starting point is 00:55:13 your first crash, you kind of get pretty used to it. Oh my god, Rose! You get one side or you're dead, so I mean one of the two. Yeah, those are your options. Jeepers, jeepers. Rose, gotta worry about you. I hope you wear your leathers. Always.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Full gear all the time or else you're just risking it for no reason. See, I think that would be cute. I could get on board with the leathers. Honestly, honestly, you can get the cutest high-heel motorbike boats. Rose, my leathers are arseless. Would they work well on a motorbike? Well, when you crash, you're supposed to land on your back, so I'd probably suggest...
Starting point is 00:55:48 No, not for me. Amazing, Rose. Sexy call. Some other text messages in. When I was younger, I was deep into a rabbit hole of wackadoodle nonsense. Okay. Cryptids, psychics, ghosts, crystals, past lives, the whole nine yards of bullshit.
Starting point is 00:56:01 Their words, not mine. Okay, yeah. I'm on board. What pulled me out and brought me back was... The healing power of crystals? Yes. I read a scientific paper because I thought I was so smart I was going to be able to put holes in it.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Oh, yeah. And I read it and I was like, well, that's absolutely unarguable with them. Wow. I've been a fool. Good on you for admitting that, though. And like they said, lucky they got out of it before the recent bout of wackadoodle nonsense.
Starting point is 00:56:26 And they got vaxxed. Yeah. Oh, they'd be big on the vaxx. But yeah, they said, I know I understand why people fall for it, having been there and trying to help explain to people. Yeah. You know, that's the same situation I was in. When's the next full moon, though?
Starting point is 00:56:38 Because they might need a charge. My crystals. A charge through the clouds? With all the rain and bad clouds we've been having, are you going to get a full charge through the clouds? Probably why your energy levels are so low. Yeah, because my crystals aren't charged. Yeah. Maybe, have you thought about an earth charge?
Starting point is 00:56:52 I'm flat. Yeah, I could do an earth charge. Yeah. Or 20 seconds in the microwave. Yeah, that's good. But with a cup of water. With a cup of water. You don't want them to burn.
Starting point is 00:57:01 That'll do it. And somebody else said, vegan for seven years, very passionate. I don't want them to burn. That'll do it. And somebody else said, vegan for seven years. Very passionate. I even went to protests. Oh. One day, something just changed. Now, they don't say it's the smell of bacon,
Starting point is 00:57:14 but let's all agree it's the smell of bacon. It's the smell of bacon. It's the goddamn smell of bacon. Or it's walking into the house and opening the front door and you smell the crock pot after seven hours. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And something just changed in me and now I eat meat
Starting point is 00:57:25 every single day and eggs and dairy pretty much every meal. Live your best life. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. Let me rewind the clock. Sunday night.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Oh, my God. Your skin looks so good. Well, it's only two days. I don't know what I did yesterday. Wow. Possibly could have aged me so terribly. Sunday night, going to bed. Sade, my wife.
Starting point is 00:57:58 That didn't mean to sound like Borat. My wife. It didn't. But this does mean to sound like Austin Powers. Can wife! It didn't, but this does mean to sound like Austin Powers. Can I ask you a question baby and be honest? Do I make you horny? Randa, anyway. Nine o'clock she says, can you smell that?
Starting point is 00:58:16 And I say, no. And she's like, it smells like chlorine or something weird. And I was like, that's weird? Sniff. I was like, oh, maybe like a slight hint like chlorine or something weird. And I was like, that's weird? Sniff. I was like, oh, maybe like a slight hint of chlorine. She thought the kitten or the cat might have sprayed inside somewhere.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Yeah. Not the case. Or maybe a pot plant was developing an unusual aroma. Yeah. Not the case. Woke up yesterday. I came to work. She woke up and said, I can smell it.
Starting point is 00:58:43 It's worse. Oh, okay. And I said, oh, I guess I'll check when I get home. And then I got home and as soon as I opened the front door, the smell. And I said, yeah, that's chemically now. It's not like chlorine, which I know is a chemical, but it's like chemically there's something more to it. Yeah. So the hunt began to find the source of this scent. And we were looking for a while.
Starting point is 00:59:06 Do you do that thing when you're walking around your house going, and you're like picking up the curtains being, is it strong on here? And then you get down. Yeah. And the dog kind of comes in. He's like, hey, I think this is my game. I don't know if you're doing it right.
Starting point is 00:59:22 And then looked for a while, couldn't find anything. And then I kind of gave up and got distracted and shut. I was like, oh my God. And she had, I found it. I was like, what is it? She's like, come and have a look. And in our hot water cupboard in the hallway, there's this stupid, stupid thing that's been on there
Starting point is 00:59:39 since we moved into the house. Yeah. And it's like a timer. So it'd be like, I'll turn on your hot water cylinder at four in the house. Yeah. And it's like a timer. So it'd be like, I'll turn on your hot water cylinder at four in the morning. So it's warm for a 7am shower. And we always just put it on bypass.
Starting point is 00:59:52 It has a bypass mode. But every time the power goes off, it tries to flick itself back to the timer. Yeah. But the power also resets the timer. So literally, every time the power goes off, you have to go in and go,
Starting point is 01:00:04 one, two, three, click it back to override. And it just starts hitting the hot water cylinder. It was on fire. Jeepers. Like, I was like, shit, this is serious.
Starting point is 01:00:14 Like, black marks, all the plastic had like warped and was like starting to droop. Yeah, you can see the photos on your Instagram story. It's insane. You can, by all means, have a look. That whole story thing was like, check your smoke alarm batteries, be careful. If you can see the photos on your Instagram story. It's insane. You can, by all means, have a look.
Starting point is 01:00:25 That whole story thing was like, check your smoke alarm batteries, be careful. If you can smell something, don't just be like writing it off because your house could burn down. I don't really need any more thoughts and opinions on the wiring situation from amateur electricians. It's been appreciated, but you've got enough. I'm okay.
Starting point is 01:00:41 I've got enough. So also, Hayley's house nearly burned. Your house nearly burned down too, didn't it? Yeah. The light switch was flooded. And then the, oh yeah, that one, the light switch was flooded. We also had another light switch that looked like, quote, from the electrician, the previous owner must have done this himself.
Starting point is 01:00:57 And that caught on fire while Aaron was in the roof and the inside of our wall caught fire. And they came down and had to like extinguish the fire. It's wild. Yes, this drippy plastic thing. Called an electrician. It's completely like redundant. Yeah, right. Because you use so much more power when you
Starting point is 01:01:15 switch off your hot water cylinder and then try to heat it up from low again. Rather than... I've heard that. It just keeps itself, I think it's set at 55 and it gets down to like 50 it'll be like oh it'll heat up a little bit it's like letting the jug boil
Starting point is 01:01:28 and then pouring it all out and filling it up with cold water and boiling it again rather than just going oh flick flick flick or the crock pot yeah keeping it all warm all day
Starting point is 01:01:36 yeah flicking it off and don't do that so yeah this thing's like melted the nutrition was like the plastic around it is a fire retardant,
Starting point is 01:01:46 a flame retardant, so it's not supposed to like go up. I know you're not supposed to say that word anymore. I don't know if you can say that word anymore. No, definitely. Different, different. Absolutely different. I don't think you ever should have. It stops it.
Starting point is 01:01:56 Fireproof? No, because it's not fireproof. No, it's not fireproof. It's designed to not go up in flames, so it's flame retardant. Really? That's what it is. Amazing. But it was melted.
Starting point is 01:02:06 Yeah. Like, it was in a bad way. So I don't know what the story was. Yeah. If it had just continued every time the hot water cylinder turned on to try to burn the house down or what, but. So every time you had a shower, before in the house, you were closer and closer to death.
Starting point is 01:02:23 It was trying to heat up And it was going through there And it was Yeah apparently just Rural Classic rural power surges Jeepers Yeah
Starting point is 01:02:30 Do you know what We're hashtag blessed To have you here At work today Well I'd just like to thank Our Lord and Saviour For that And if
Starting point is 01:02:37 People want to send I do get a few messages Of people who obviously Aren't familiar with my Absolutely non-religious background Yeah My atheism Yeah Who said you know God was watching I was like well obviously aren't familiar with my absolutely non-religious background, my atheism, who said, you know, God was watching. I was like, well, why did he try to burn my bloody house down?
Starting point is 01:02:52 He was having fun with you. Is God just watching the wind that he created blow the power lines into a desert and cause surges in rural houses? Yeah, that's the kind of stuff he does. That's a wild game to play, God. God's got to do all these other things. There's a lot of stuff he could be looking after. Oh, like what? The world's great to play, guys. God's got to do all these other things. There's a lot of stuff you're going to be looking after. Oh, like what? The world's great.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Hey, Ukraine. There is, yeah. Well, thoughts and prayers. Please send in your thoughts and prayers. Next on the show, we're going to talk about theft from the work fridge. There's been a study done. Hayley, also, you have something to admit? I would like to admit something to the wider ZM network.
Starting point is 01:03:24 Right. ZM network. Right. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. ZM, Fletch Vaughan and Hayley, it's 8.21. Sorry. There has been a study done in America. This comes out of America and it has found one in three adults,
Starting point is 01:03:50 and I'd imagine this would be the same, especially in flatting situations, one in three have admitted stealing co-workers' food from the office fridge. Now, are you talking about like they've brought in their own delicious almond milk and you're like, I have a dash of that. Or are we talking like they've brought in leftovers and you've heated them up and eaten them? Gross. There's something gross about eating somebody else's leftover curry
Starting point is 01:04:21 out of somebody else's systemic container. Yeah, because they've been slopping in it before you're eating it. Oh yeah, exactly. I would imagine, it doesn't specify, but I would imagine it would be spreads like butter margarine. This is where I would like to take this opportunity.
Starting point is 01:04:38 I didn't know you were going to do this actually. I didn't know what that was, but it's been weighing on me and I just want to get it off my shoulders. Right, okay. So, you know, I'm a big smoothie gal in the mornings, but sometimes every now and then a smoothie is the saddest thing you could imagine. And so I bring toast.
Starting point is 01:04:56 Yep. And I have been stealing someone's olivani from the fridge. Olivani. Don't steal someone's margarine. Seven months. There's got to be butter in there somewhere. What, every day? Or you don't every day toast, but every couple of days.
Starting point is 01:05:12 I don't every day toast, but every day I have toast. Yeah. And I know it's wrong because sometimes in the kitchen, you know, like other people from other stations walk past and then, good morning, Hayley. Oh, good morning. And so I don't bring the olivani out of the fridge. I get the knife.
Starting point is 01:05:29 I take it to the fridge and I sort of have the door half shut and I dig it into the olivani and then I close it. Right. And then I take it to spread on my toast. In case somebody walks past. Now, I'm not an olivani gal. I would choose butter, but there's no butter there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:43 5 a.m. though, the perfect time for this crime. Yeah. There's very few people around. And it's been going down and down and down because I've been doing this for seven months. Yeah. And are they not replacing it? No.
Starting point is 01:05:54 I don't know whose it is. I don't know if they're also using it or if it's just me for seven months that's been using it. But I've been doing it and I've been hiding it like a dirty secret. Now I can get into heaven. What a wait. That's a confession that she did.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Forgive me, Father. That's the Catholic loophole. Forgive me, Father. Yeah, right. I confessed. Why don't you just bring in your own spreadable butter or olivani? Because someone will steal it. Because someone will, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:21 You've heard what these people around here are like. I've had some olivani in the fridge out here and it's been going down sort of like quite aggressively. I don't know who's. What did you say you were using again? Oh, Vaughan. Oh, Hayley. Not you.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Not my most trusted. Hayley, no. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Today's fact of the day is about a survivor of the Titanic. Okay. His name is Frank Goldsmith. Well, I meant it is.
Starting point is 01:07:03 It was. He passed away in 1982, just before I was born. So if you believe in reincarnation, it is I, Frank Goldsmith. Wow. Or you could have just been a sparrow. Could have been. Yeah. Could have been anything.
Starting point is 01:07:18 I like to think I may have been, if he's speaking any... Whoa! Wow. I bet if I was, haven't I turned it round? You've done really well. Proud of you. Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:07:34 Goobles. And Pol Pot over here. It's always good to turn it round in the next life. It really is. God, no. Jesus, no. I was just thinking if I was an animal, I would have been sort of a majestic. Badger.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Badger. Snow leopard. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just up there. You think about it, like if you carry on a few things into the next life. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Solo, likes alone time, not a huge fan of crowds. Yeah. And white. So that carried over from my last life I think I would have been a laughing hyena A hyena Moving in packs Not the bad guys the Lion King made them out to be
Starting point is 01:08:14 You know the Lion King really did nothing for the hyena there What would you have been? I don't know You would have been An absolutely pampered And overindulged domestic cat Yes. You would have been an absolutely pampered and overindulged domestic cat. Yes,
Starting point is 01:08:27 I probably would have been. Just a tabby. Or a blobfish. No, you would have been a purebred. Or a blobfish. Blobfish. A manatee.
Starting point is 01:08:36 Because I do love cabbage. You do. You'll just, yeah, you go ham on that seaweed stuff that they always have in the Japanese
Starting point is 01:08:43 place next door. Anyway, this is all nonsense. This isn't about fact of the day. Frank Goldsmith Jr. was a survivor of the Titanic, and he also was the only third-class passenger to have a book published about surviving. Everybody else that wrote books about surviving the Titanic were in the upper echelon.
Starting point is 01:09:01 He was Jack. He was shut down the bottom. He was Jack, except he was 10 when it happened. Right, okay. He lost his father. And he said in this book, he talks about how it took him ages to accept the fact that his dad just hadn't been picked up by another boat
Starting point is 01:09:16 or got amnesia or, you know, for his father to have actually passed. Him and his mother carried on, got to America and were helped to resettle in New York initially, but then moved to Detroit to be with family. And he actually lived next to the recently opened Navin Field, home of the Detroit Tigers. And every time the crowd cheered about a home run during the baseball game,
Starting point is 01:09:40 he said it automatically took him back to the screams and noise of the Titanic going down. Oh goodness. Horrible. And so he had to move away from the stadium. Yeah, right. Because yeah, every time home run, just that everybody's screaming all at once. He said even like as an adult, it took him immediately took him back to that fateful
Starting point is 01:09:57 night in the Atlantic. Him and Helen Clark hate stadiums. Hate noisy stadiums. Hate noisy stadiums. Yeah. Hers probably doesn't remind her of anything. Traumata. Traumata. And her and Peter are probably trying to listen to national radio's Saturday evening program. Yes.
Starting point is 01:10:12 And they can't hear it over that belligerent 660. Crap. That's some ungodly volume. I used to be prime minister of this country, Peter. And he'd say, I know, I know. I know. I know, sweetie. I shouldn't. And he'd say, I know, I know. I know. I know, sweet Pete. I shouldn't have to deal with this.
Starting point is 01:10:28 I know. I know. I reckon Peter said I know a lot. Yeah. I know. So the fact of the day, what was it? The fact of the day is that a man that survived the Titanic sinking couldn't live next to a sports stadium because every time there was a home run,
Starting point is 01:10:41 it reminded him of the Titanic sinking. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. So an article on the Huffington Post has delved into what IT workers have found on company laptops. And on most of the occasions, it's when somebody finishes with a work laptop, so they're leaving the company or they're getting it fixed. You guys had to do that at the end of last year, didn't you?
Starting point is 01:11:17 Yeah. Because you've got a new laptop. We've got new laptops. I threw mine into the ocean. Oh, wow. Have you actually handed yours back? After running it over.

Starting point is 01:13:00 stuff not on the laptop itself, but physically on. Like Post-it notes. A lot of post-it notes that have login details, personal bank accounts, personal login information that people stick in the top corner or underneath the laptop. You would think you'd take five seconds to just whip off a post-it.
Starting point is 01:13:17 A lot of people, you've got some silly stickers on your work laptop there. Milwaukee Bucks get a grip. You have to take all of those off. And another thing, people have also found criminal activity. Some IT workers said he found weird people of people's feet that someone had just
Starting point is 01:13:34 gone around filming women's feet and the videos were left on the laptop. That's off. And they were just like, what? That's a bit dodgy. So I thought this morning I'd love to know if anybody listening has, maybe works in IT and has fixed computers and laptops. Like what have you seen? And do you snoop?
Starting point is 01:13:51 Yeah, they snoop. Or maybe you've gone to help, you know, the elders in your life or someone in your family fix something and then you've found something. Do you remember like when you, with Zoom, you start doing screen share, how often you had to just quickly check your tabs, make sure there was like nothing sort of, not incriminating, but something embarrassing, like lump on and you're like, oh, sorry, I just closed that. Didn't some, wasn't there a US politician that screenshot something and all of his tabs were open
Starting point is 01:14:19 and there was like porn? And he was like some conservative, like religious. Fantastic. All right, well, I800DARLS.M. I want to take your calls this morning. You can text as well, 9696. What have you found when you were fixing someone's computer? And you don't need to work in IT, but I mean, if you work in IT,
Starting point is 01:14:36 I'm sure you've got some stories. You've probably got more stories. Yeah. Could even be like your dad. If you're a kid and your dad's like, oh, how do I get on the bloody thing? And you look and you're like, oh, my God, Dad. What is this? Yeah, don't look at that, Dad.
Starting point is 01:14:47 Everybody wants to be my enemy. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. Well, we want to know what you've found when fixing somebody's computer or device. Maybe you work in IT or maybe you're just helping out a family member. So message messages in. Instagram responses. Alex said, my husband worked in IT
Starting point is 01:15:09 and he said the time you saw the most was when you were upgrading cell phones. Oh, yeah. And people would be like, I just want everything off that cell phone on my next cell phone. And all the gallery would go across. Big gallery energy.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Would you look in someone's gallery if you were fixing a phone? Absolutely. Yeah, I'd have a little gaze. I'd have just a quick scroll and if there wasn't anything decent, I'd be like, ah, get out of here. I reckon if you work at like
Starting point is 01:15:32 at one of the mobile phone shops, like Spark or Vodafone or whatever, you'd see some stuff on people's phones. That place that fixes my screen, every time I take it in, they're like, and is there anything on here that, you know?
Starting point is 01:15:43 You don't. Basically asking me if I want to delete any. Yeah. And I'm like, no, no. I would love you to see it all. No. There's nothing on this phone. Somebody said my brother found a, was helping a teacher at school with a laptop that they were having problems
Starting point is 01:16:00 with. And they found a tape on that laptop that the teacher had filmed at school with another teacher. Whoa. That is such, that's so good. You've got location. You've got peoples of interest.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Yep. You've got the proof. It's all there. Someone said, my boss asked me to fix an iPad that wasn't working. Yeah. I'll preface this by saying he's a very staunch Christian man. Any opportunity to rub his Christian values in your face he took so I didn't ask too many questions
Starting point is 01:16:31 when there was tabs and tabs and tabs of gay porn left on me yes brilliant Laurie what did you find when you were fixing a device I wasn't fixing it my dad gave me his old phone to use
Starting point is 01:16:46 I think I was about 11 years old and I just happened to go into the gallery and found a whole lot of photos of my step mum in lingerie and naked on the bed you always do a full factory reset you'd think so
Starting point is 01:17:02 step mum naked on the bed. Did you, at the ripe age of 11, did you say anything? I showed it to my mum and she was just like, oh my God, let's just clear those off and give the phone back to your dad. Oh. She would have said something and said, Greg. Dad wasn't getting weekends for a while, was he? Oh.

It's not often you get to see your ex's new partner naked. Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm kind of like. Was mum kind of like, oh, God. I can see why he upgraded kind of thing.
Starting point is 01:17:46 Oh, my step step mum was a bitch so which is not your real mum did you say that to her no no no yeah she's not my real mum

Starting point is 01:18:20 Maybe you've been fixing it or helping. Maybe you just took it, opened it and had a look. Well, you don't know what's on there, so tread lightly. Yeah. Someone said, I had a really fun uncle when I was growing up. A funcle, they call them. A funcle. Well, this would be a gunkle.
Starting point is 01:18:36 A gay uncle. A gay uncle. A fun gay uncle. Like a funcle. And he always had the latest technology, and he'd always give his old phone to one of the one of his nieces or nephews. Oh dear. We can see where this is going. There was at least three times where he didn't completely
Starting point is 01:18:51 do a factory reset. Do a full factory reset. There were some DPs in the gallery of men that he'd been talking to. Oh wow. Once as cousins we sat down and worked it out. Eight different ones. We could tell just by how different they looked. He asked me once if I wanted his old phone,
Starting point is 01:19:08 and it was a strong no. Although it's only a year or two old. Uncle, yeah, you can do the full factory reset. I did a full factory reset for your old phone when my last one broke, right? Yeah, and I did a full factory reset when you borrowed it. Yeah, yeah, so I didn't get yours and you didn't get mine. And I didn't get yours.
Starting point is 01:19:26 Oh, that's good. Hey, welcome to the couple of deviants here. I could lend you my phone right now and there'd be nothing on there that would raise an eyebrow. You'd just pause there. There'd be nothing on there that would raise an eyebrow. Jamie, what happened? Hiya. I handed over my phone
Starting point is 01:19:46 to a uni helper to get me an appointment through their website. Yeah. Little did I realise that me and my classmates had been looking up what we got told there was an adult film out about someone famous.
Starting point is 01:20:02 And so the adult website was actually still open on my phone. Oh no. Wow. So I take it you did find this video, this celebrity. No, I didn't find it at all.
Starting point is 01:20:18 So basically just having to browse through some adult websites. It wasn't the one you were finding last week, Hayley. Yeah. On the work laptop, no less. No, it was a different one, I imagine. Right, okay. Jamie, thanks for your call.
Starting point is 01:20:33 Dan, what did you find? I found, well, my father-in-law came around and he bought me his tablet and sort of said to me, oh, I can't get onto the internet. Can you have a look at it? And when I took a look at it, bearing in mind my 10-year-old son was sat next to me at that point as well, all these tabs were open and he'd opened so many tabs and not closed any,
Starting point is 01:20:58 they couldn't open up anymore. And as we went through them, it was indoor gardening, indoor gardening, trade me, indoor gardening, indoor gardening, trade me, indoor gardening, indoor gardening, trade me. And you're not talking about King's Plant Barn, I believe. No, no. No. Wow. And there was a lot of it.
Starting point is 01:21:17 So now I know what he's into. Oh, it's too much to know about a father-in-law. Yeah. So what, did you just kind of, did you swipe up and shut all the tabs? I kind of showed him that you should really close your tabs, but I felt real awkward. Oh, my gosh. Oh, God damn it.
Starting point is 01:21:32 Oh, no, Dan, thanks for your call. I asked him a text message then. Somebody said, 80-year-old father-in-law was having horrendous problems with his tablet, going very slow, and we had to explain to him that he had all of these tabs open, each one of them requiring a little bit of memory and each one of them was also open on pornographic material. So it's all porn, isn't it? This is what we're coming down to.
Starting point is 01:21:55 This is what it's boiling down to. He blamed the Russians. Very 80-year-old approach to that. That's what they're trying to do Is destabilise our western culture Must have been those pesky Russians Cause arguments Yeah My best friend works at a telco
Starting point is 01:22:12 She was fixing an old lady's phone Who was around 75 My best friend saw the nudes on her phone Of herself And the lady asked Do you think they're nice? Good for her Good for her. Good for her.
Starting point is 01:22:27 Yeah. Go nanny. It became creepy when they said, do you think they're nice? Because then it's like they intentionally wanted them to see it. A bit sort of voyeur-y. They were exposing themselves. Yeah, it was a digital exposure. Like exposing yourself in the sand dunes at the beach to passers-by.
Starting point is 01:22:43 This is the new version. This is the new version. This is the digital version. Poor people that work at Telco. In the mall. The chaos. Yeah. Yeah, they would certainly see it all. Hey, remember how you just gave that Uber driver five stars
Starting point is 01:22:55 because you wanted five stars back? Yes. Let's do that with this podcast. Oh, yeah. Review it five stars, tell your friends, and we'll do the same for you if you ever need a review for anything. But where are you giving me my five stars? Well, I don't do the same for you if you ever need a review for anything but where are you giving me my five stars
Starting point is 01:23:06 well I don't know do you own a restaurant or something yes if you give us five stars on this podcast tell us where you would like your review
