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.

Too heavy.

For Tanya
Yep
Tanya
Tansy
So open it up
What a gift
There's wheat sacks
And two very special Wheat s wheat sacks shaped like willies.
I thought, oh, she hasn't thought about this design, but it's intentional.
No, it's cock and balls.
It's got eyes as well.
It's got big eyes.
Excuse me, I'm just getting a phone call.
Let me mute that.
Who's calling you?
I don't know.
It's a West Auckland number.
They're probably going to do your concrete today and you've just died out of that. Oh, answer it. You might want to answer it. No, it't know. It's a West Auckland number. 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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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-
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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,
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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,
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?
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...
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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?
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
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
yeah
what do we call that strain
the Wuhan strain
alpha
you know like alpha
yeah
the original
before
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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,
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.
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?
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?
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?
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.
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?
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
your kids. A billion dollars? Their share
of. Yeah. It would be creating
billions of monsters. Monsters. Yeah.
We'd just end up like with a Donald Trump. Yeah.
Yeah. Well this is the antithesis. You've got to say this
is pretty cool that he's going to give away.
I mean he's, it's not like I'm gonna.
He's already done it. This week alone.
Billions of dollars. Six6 billion to that foundation.
Man, I bet all those other billionaires can't do it.
I bet they can't.
I bet they can't.
I just don't think they can.
I mean, put that to put.
I don't think those billionaires could save the planet a fee.
I just don't think they're capable of doing it.
Didn't they say that Elon Musk has the ability
to pull however many countries out of poverty single-handedly.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, like Elon Musk has $251 billion.
He's number one.
Jeff Bezos is number three with $146 billion.
Shame.
Shame, Jeff.
Who's number two now then?
Number two is Bernard Anolt and family.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
All those fashion houses.
Yeah. Right. And various other things. He's $157 billion, yeah. Oh yeah. Those fashion houses. Yeah.
Right.
And various other things.
He's 157, yeah.
But insane amounts of money, eh?
Elon Musk,
they say in the next couple of years
is going to become a trillionaire.
Yeah.
He's got a long way to go.
That Bernard did,
the one having the biggest laugh,
like Amazon sends people things,
has a lot of things people need.
Yeah.
Elon Musk,
regardless of your thoughts of him,
like,
has tried different things.
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
for handbags.
Yeah.
Literally selling you shit
that he had made
for next to nothing
for thousands of dollars.
Yeah.
He's having a laugh.
He's having a laugh.
He's having a laugh.
You still buy the handbags, don't you?
I wouldn't buy the handbags he sells.
Support local.
Not even if I had.
Tiddly ponies.
Not cheap.
Half a billion dollars.
I wouldn't buy those handbags.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Today's silly little pole, it's about orange juice.
Pulpy or not pulpy?
For God's sake.
If you're going for a fresh squeeze, it's got to be pulpy, right?
It adds to the thought of like, I'm healthy now.
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
Chonky chonky
Bouncing up there
Yes
Yeah
There's nothing better
Like squeezing it yourself
That or grapefruit juice
Oh
I've got the grapefruit on the tree
I should bring some grapefruit in
Yes do
It's nearly that time Yeah What happened to our grapefruit on the tree. I should bring some grapefruit in. Yes, do. Oh, is it nearly that time?
Yeah.
I don't know what happened to our grapefruit trees.
They're definitely dying.
Have you got oranges?
We'll do an exchange.
Oh, yeah, you've got oranges.
I've got oranges.
I've got tangelos, although I'm told I'm saying that wrong every time I say it.
Tangelos.
God, last year I drank so much of your grapefruit juice.
It gave me hot wheeze.
Hot Bernie wheeze in the earwax.
You can't do that.
Hot Bernie wheeze, and't do that And then you got pregnant
Yeah and then I got pregnant
Because I was on the pill obviously
It negated your pill
Yeah
Barbara
He was on Barbara
Yeah
That's his pill
Barbara
How much grapefruit
Do you have to eat
For it to
I don't know
Well I just had a couple
Mess up your OCP
Oral contraceptive pill
Oh
OCP
Yeah
You know me
Um
Pulpy orange juice
Yeah or nah
Yeah
66%
Two thirds of people
Nah
One third
34
Nearly nice
They're missing out
Um
Connor
People who hate pulp
Grow up and stop being stupid
I agree
Caroline just says
Hell yeah
Pulp So that's also Good feedback She's pumped up on pulp She's pumped on pulp being stupid. I agree. Caroline just says, hell yeah, pulp.
So that's also good feedback.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
Yes.
A little OJ on the side.
I'm a big fan of an apple juice.
Yeah, yeah.
No, you're not wrong.
Pineapple juice
at a breakfast buffet
when they've got
a little pineapple juice.
I wouldn't be afraid.
That's wild.
I wouldn't be afraid
to get a little glass
of pineapple juice.
I think that's where
I get adventurous with my juices. A breakfast buffet at a little pineapple juice. I'm afraid to get a little glass of pineapple juice. I think that's where I get adventurous with my
juices. A breakfast buffet at a hotel.
Yeah, that's good stuff.
Monique says,
if I wanted to eat my fruit, I would.
Oh, antipulp.
Antipulp cinnamon. Guava. Guava juice.
Is it like a Thai buffet?
Yeah. Guava.
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.
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...
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.
Pulp for life.
Pulp, pulp, pulp, pulp.
Pulp, pulp, pulp, pulp, pulp.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. You ask and you shall receive, Vaughn.
I just said, who is that?
And then you said it's Benson Boone.
Yeah.
Oh, okay, right, yeah.
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.
Oh, lovely.
Barcelona.
It's like 27 degrees.
It's 8.30. Oh. It'll be like 27 degrees It's 8.30
It'll be 9 now
It's ridiculous
Pretty
Cocktail hour
Yeah
Yeah gorgeous
Because everybody's
Woken up from their siesta
Yeah
They have a late dinner
Don't they
They do have a late dinner
A paella
Yeah
Head out to Las Ramblas
Huh
Las Ramblas
Ah yeah
Si si
One's like
I don't know I haven't been But yeah Go to Las Ramblas And yeah Si, si One's like I don't know
I haven't been
But yeah
Go to Las Ramblas
And have a
I know but
I feel like
Everybody's travelling
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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,
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.
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
getting upgraded
to business class
get yourself a yummy
yummy sleeping pill
and any class
can be business class.
Yeah.
In your dreams.
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.
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.

I'm still in bed.
I haven't had anything yet.
You haven't had anything.
You're still in bed.
See you later, Vicky.
Bye.

That was very close because it was the worst thing to have for breakfast had to go.
And Up and Go was a close second.
I think Up and Go is probably worse than just being in bed.
Just not having breakfast.
Round five.
All right. It's our last round. Crystal and Hay Yeah, just not having breakfast? Round five. All right.
It's our last round.
Crystal and Hayden,
someone tell me to stop.

times that by 10,
so $24.50.
Congratulations, Crystal.
Suck it, Hayden.
The world's most counted game show.
Well, that just happened, didn't it?
19 past seven.
Just need a little breath.
Yeah.
I'll sing it loud in case you don't already know.
Pack up your...
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
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?
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
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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?
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?
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?
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.
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
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?
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.
You're outing them while they're overseas.
Do they're like rich?
Yeah, mum's listening now.
Should be listening in the telly.
Do they're rich friends now?
Bonjour, you greenie.
You bloody token smoking greenie.
Why just, they're going through this leadership thing at the moment.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. We want to know. Oh, my God. Are you a top? Are you a top? No. No, I'm not saying who I vote for 0800 966 we want to know
oh my god
are you a top
are you a top
no
no I'm not a top
top's got some sensible
no
yeah you're not a top
I thought you were a top
no
Gareth Morgan
wanted to
ban cats
yes cats
they didn't want to
gas them
they wanted to register
god this is really
getting political
I'm just saying
top had some good ideas
this isn't a political
final we want to know when you've done a 180.
Our earth is burning.
Vote Green.
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.
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.
Yeah.
Let's take a call.
Anonymous is called.
What's your 180?
Is that me?
Yes.
Hi.
Good morning.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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,
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.
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,
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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...
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.
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.
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.
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?
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?
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.
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,
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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?
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.
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.
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,
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
I probably would have been.
Just a tabby.
Or a blobfish.
No,
you would have been a purebred.
Or a blobfish.
Blobfish.
A manatee.
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
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.
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
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,
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
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.
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.
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,
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?
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.
And said, good luck getting the cookies off that. Is it the cookies that tell them where you've been? I think it into the ocean. Oh, wow. Have you actually handed yours back? After running it over. And said, good luck getting the cookies off that.
Is it the cookies that tell them where you've been?
I think it's the cookies.
Is it the cookie crumble?
I think it's the cookies, yeah.
The trail of cookies?
Yeah, the cache, the cookie cache.
Okay, so all the things they found on computers,
number one, without a doubt, you know what it is.
I don't even need to say it.
Cat pictures.
No.
Recipes.
Adult pictures and videos. Adult videos. Cat pictures. No. Recipes. Adult pictures and videos.
Adult videos.
Adult entertainment.
On your work list.
On your work list.
I know.
Who's saving that?
They are.
Don't go quiet on me.
Don't go quiet on me.
I don't know who saves that.
I like to curate a collection.
You curate.
Yeah, okay.
So another thing they find the most of, illegally downloaded movies, music and TV.
Oh, yeah, they've been on Pirate Bay.
Been on Pirate Bay.
I would have thought,
there's so much streaming around now,
you don't really need to anymore, do you?
Like back in the 2000s,
we were all about the downloading songs.
You download whole seasons of things.
Old love letters.
Another one that popped up as being interesting.
What, like scans of love letters? I'm imaginingped up as being Interesting What like scans
Of love letters
I'm imagining emails
I'm imagining emails
When was the last time
You wrote a love letter
You don't have to answer that
If you don't want to
I honestly couldn't tell you
But maybe you know
That's just
You should use
The new pen that you
Stole from the hotel
That looks like a pencil
Yeah
Which you're so fizzed about
I love
I just told you before
This smell has not been
Off this boy's face
I've been looking up Where I can get more of these So if you're ever in a bad mood I I love it. I just told you before. The smell has not been off this boy's face.
I've been looking up where I can get more of these.
So if you're ever in a bad mood, I can be like, hey, look what I got you.
And then you'll be happy again.
It'll work.
Another thing they find a lot of when they're fixing computers,
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.
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
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?
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
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,
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.
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
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.
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
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?
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
Well, he lives in Perth, so. Well, he lives in Perth, so.
Oh, he lives in Perth, right.
Was mum like, damn, stepmum's keeping it tight.
Like, what was my mum?
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.
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
she's got
gross nipples
you've seen them
you can say that
they're all over the show
yeah
oh my god
on the piss
one's up
one's down
looks like she's got
cross eyes
but it's nipples
she's got cross eyes, but it's nipples.
She's got a lazy nipple.
Talking now about the things that you've found on somebody's device or laptop.
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.
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
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
and we'll review
even where
we won't even go
we'll just review your thing
I don't want people
to know where my restaurant is
I'm doing one of those
secret restaurants
oh I was going to say
because that's exactly
the opposite of how
restaurants work
