Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley podcast. It's thanks to Mick. Have a download, scan and play the Monopoly game. At Mac is to be into a winner. We may need to keep this quite short because you're aroused. I'm not aroused. I'm absolutely, I feel.
Starting point is 00:00:23 It was an accident. It was a twitch. Ruan, you It was an accident. It was a twitch. You've got a wife. It was a twitch. I wasn't even looking at you. You were. I wasn't. This is okay. This is what Vaughn does. He was leaning back, legs spread.
Starting point is 00:00:38 It was man spreading. Yeah, and then he was leaning back and we were chatting. He put his hands behind his head like that. Look at, you fucking liar. Look deep into my eyes. He starts bouncing his biceps. The first one was a twitch.
Starting point is 00:00:54 How do you do that? Can you not do that? Nah. You just tense them. You just tense them. Nah, I can't do it. I can only do one. What do you mean you can't do it?
Starting point is 00:01:02 I thought this was the thing. You can't do the other side. I think it's like tongue curling. It's like people that can do that with their pecs. I can't do it? I thought this was the thing. You can't do the other side. I think it's like tongue curling. It's like people that can do that with their pecs. I can't do it. I don't have pecs. It's that thing where people pulse your pecs at you. I don't have pecs.
Starting point is 00:01:12 I was in an accident. You did that with your thighs. It's so dirty. I'm so tired. I was lying back and I literally put my hands behind my head to support my head because otherwise it was just going to flop backwards. Right. I was in a relaxed position.
Starting point is 00:01:23 We were like, what are we going to do about for the podcast intro? And then Hayley says she takes the car to the pub and I just assumed they walked. It's very, I'll support you in HR. Would you like to go? I do. I feel somewhat violated. Stop looking me in the fucking eye.
Starting point is 00:01:41 It's not. The first one was a twitch and then I panicked and did the other one. Where am I to have a guest in the studio? Should I not do that when she gets here? No, absolutely not. She's with her partner. I'm imagining I'll be invited for some sort of. Absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:01:56 I'm going to have to tell Aaron. Thank you, Sam. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Fawn and Hayley. Is it weird that your dad's name is also the name of the hurricane that's slamming the Caribbean and America? Yeah, our dad's always been a bit of a hurricane out there, tearing it up. Yeah. On the farm?
Starting point is 00:02:22 Yeah. Is there a Hurricane Craig? There will have been, or there will be in the future. Oh, wow. Yeah, but imagine if you're, what were the big ones? Wasn't there, of course, the bowler. That's probably the most famous. Katrina.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Katrina hit America, but it hit New Zealand. Bowler. Yeah, there was a tropical storm Craig. Oh, Craig. Back in the day. There's actually a list of retired Atlantic hurricane names on Wikipedia. What, because they were so prevalent that they were like, well, we can't have another one called that.
Starting point is 00:02:56 There was literally names from every decade, from the 50s until now. Have you guys ever updated a Wikipedia page? Once. Once, yeah. What did you update? Well, you've got to go, it's got to be approved by the community,
Starting point is 00:03:10 doesn't it? Yeah. My friend made one for me because he thought it was time. Okay. So I wasn't on Wikipedia and I felt offended and he included a performance
Starting point is 00:03:22 I did when I was 16 in my acting credits. Just looking. Hayley Jane Sproul is a New Zealand comedian, actor, scriptwriter, television and radio show host. Oh, wow. It's been updated. It's been updated.
Starting point is 00:03:36 It doesn't say you're on ZM, though. It just says you're the great Kimi Bakehoff and have you been paying attention host? Okay. Oh, no, it says here. Yeah, okay, it says here later in your bio. Very short. Like, look, I can't even stop. That's all you need, though?
Starting point is 00:03:50 Well, do you guys have one? Yeah. No. Nah. That was what I tried to edit once. It wouldn't let you. No, somebody put one up, and then we talked about saying someone's made a Wikipedia page, but some of the things are wrong. So I went in to edit that.
Starting point is 00:04:05 But then heaps of other people went in to edit that and it had too many edits at the same time and I didn't delete it. Oh, right. Oh, wow. It was shenanigans. Guess only one of us has a Wikipedia page. It was made by my friend.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Well, there you go then. Joining us on the show, actually soon one of your friends. I've got a lot of friends, don't I? Starring in a brand new movie, which I've seen the trailer for. What a great idea for a movie. Very funny premise. Millie Lies Low.
Starting point is 00:04:32 It's been a long time in the making as well. I'm so excited to see it. So this is about a girl, and this is awkward because you auditioned for this movie. Yeah, the reason I know so much about this film is because I did lay down the tape. I'm happy to play the audio later of my audition. That's just awkward because you didn't get it a tape. I'm happy to play the audio later of my audition. That's just awkward because you didn't get it. No, I'm going to find it.
Starting point is 00:04:52 But yeah, basically she gets the opportunity of a lifetime. Panics. Doesn't go. So she gets a chance to move to New York to do an architect internship and pretends she's in New York, but she's actually in Wellington the whole time because she's freaked out. Yeah, so she's hiding. It looks so much, it's in New York, but she's actually in Wellington the whole time because she's freaked out. Yeah, so she's hiding. It looks so much, it's so much fun. And I'm excited to talk to Anna because she is an incredible actress.
Starting point is 00:05:11 So you auditioned for her role? Yeah, Millie. Yeah, they obviously went in a very different direction. Why would you say that? Anna is a beautiful, young, Maori woman. Yeah. And I am a beautiful, middle-aged, young, Maori woman. Yeah. And I am a beautiful. Yep. Middle-aged.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Middle-aged. Young, Maori woman. Gotcha. Okay. I know now that you've pointed it out, how did I ever not see the similarities? Sorry, I'm just not seeing. The differences. Do you know?
Starting point is 00:05:37 Yeah. Well, anyway, she's in because she's in the movie. Well, now I feel like you're going to be comparing. She's in in about 10 minutes' time. What's the difference? I'm not. She's in because she's in the movie. Well, now I feel like you're going to be comparing. She's in in about 10 minutes' time. What's the difference? I've seen you showing us a photo of Anna in a sort of a squat pose. I've seen you in that squat pose.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Yeah, so what's the difference? Well, I don't know. Is that a picture of you or Anna? Thank you. It's so, like, you can't tell. All right, well, she's in. So we've got the top six on the way. Yeah, Vodafone, New Zealand Zealand changing its name to 1NZ.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Immediately people said, how much did you pay for that rebrand? And another person has pointed out that is the online branding of a racist New Zealand group. Nobody, does anybody check these things? Does anybody? I'm no, you know, I'm not saying I'm the go-to guy, but that would be something I would check. Even the name kind of lends itself, even without knowing there was a racist group in New Zealand. There was Pauline Hanson in Australia.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Hers was what, One Nation? One Nation, yeah. One. One. Stupid to say One Nation, eh? When she has no idea about the nation. No, One Nation, the very skewed view of that nation. But I've got the top six better names.
Starting point is 00:06:53 I'm going to, between now and then, come up with six names. And you know what it's going to cost Vodafone? Nothing. Nothing. I'll even redesign their logo. Because whoever put that blue circle together, lazy. Yeah, that was done in a day, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Oh, my God, I forgot about that design brief. We'll give you the chance as well to have a shot at our secret sound at 7 and 8 and 9 this morning, thanks to Neon, $100,000. It's a jackpot. Next on the show, though. Apparently, Alexa or Siri or, hey, Google, whoever you've got in your home is doing something to our children. Not bad.
Starting point is 00:07:27 That made it sound bad. It's not bad. Oh dear. No, it's not bad. All right, it's next. 6.60 before you leave. ZM. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:07:38 We've got an Alexa at our house. Yeah. One on the bench. And then a couple of those little ones. Oh, you've got one of the big daddy ones You can bring up The show Bring up the recipes on in the kitchen
Starting point is 00:07:50 Yes Must be nice The screen, yeah Must be nice Very well for myself And there's carpet in the garage too I tell you what Very well for myself
Starting point is 00:07:58 Must be nice Very well Well you two can You know, pull up your socks Work hard and have a Alexa with a screen too. I was born in a state house. I've got lofty ambitions like that.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yeah, well, you know. Because we're a Uwe Boom family, but our one's not working. Because I keep being like, hey, Uwe Boom. Have you charged it? Oh, yeah, no, that doesn't. Hey, Uwe Boom. I don't do that. I think the thing's not working.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Are you sure? Your Uwe Boom could be death. Could be. Could be. Just an idea. I don't know sign language, so I'd have to work it out. Right. Presumptuous to assume your UE boom does.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Yeah, it is, I guess. You're cancelled and you're cancelled. Damn it. I continue to thrive, however. Now, the Alexa units, the Googles, the... Is there like one voice-controlled internet things? Is there a word?
Starting point is 00:08:45 Yeah, smart home speakers. Smart home speakers. That kind of sums it all up without getting a brand allegiance. Duh. Smart home speakers. Well, they're now in the firing line. Right. Not for eavesdropping, not for telling Jeff Bezos what he should target us with advertising for
Starting point is 00:09:03 to buy off Amazon or anything like that. Yeah, because it's kind of gone quiet. Because you remember a few years ago there was, that they were listening. They were listening, weren't they? Well, it's not that. It's that they're making our children dumber. Not dumber, but not as smart as they would be.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Right. So they're saying children absorb information by, you know, Mummy, what's a... What's a dinosaur? Yeah. That's the noise mum makes as she rolls her eyes. I'm raising a moron. Yeah. Well, a dinosaur doesn't exist.
Starting point is 00:09:35 It was planted by the heretics. God created the earth four and a half thousand years ago. And if anybody tells you anything different, they're going to spend eternity in hell. They were put there to test our faith. Move on. Yeah, that sort of thing. That's, of course, the correct answer.
Starting point is 00:09:48 But you ask Alexa, what's a dinosaur? And it will just give you a concise, quick, a dinosaur that was a prehistoric lizard. Something short and sweet. And kids are like, gotcha. Move on. Whereas when you engage children and you say, well, you know, millions of years ago, well before humans roamed the earth, the dinosaurs were ferocious beasts and here's a picture of a dinosaur and there's all these different sorts of dinosaurs and you story tell your children
Starting point is 00:10:18 and they retain the information. And same thing with adults. Right, and so because kids are using a smart speaker, they're like, hey, Alexa, what's a dinosaur? They're getting a short little answer with no storytelling. Yes. And it doesn't stick. Right.
Starting point is 00:10:32 That's the future, isn't it? Short little songs, short little videos, TikToks. People can't retain. No. Right. Can't sustain it, people. So little, like, answers for things. That's the next generation.
Starting point is 00:10:45 That's a little quick little... Right. Quick, quick, quick. They're not going to have time for a yarn. Yeah, so they don't retain the information as well and they don't learn the surrounding facts. How are they going to do true crime podcasts in 30 seconds? Or just have heaps of episodes.
Starting point is 00:11:00 There once was a woman. She was Pakeha. She was walking down the street. Yeah. A man killed her. She was Pakeha. She was walking down the street. Yeah. A man killed her. She did. Big mystery. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Man leaves one silly clue that another man discovers a man that works for the police. Yeah. You thought it was going to be this guy. Yeah. Turns out. It wasn't. It was that guy. The end.
Starting point is 00:11:21 See what you've done there? You've missed out all the story. I know. All the juicy bits. Kids are going to be more dumber. This is what we're saying. More dumber. that guy. The end. See what you've done there? You've missed out all the story. I know. Kids are going to be more dumber. This is what we're saying. You know, they're going to be more dumber than us because we're really smarter. Yeah, because we used to go and pull, you know, we'd be like, what's a
Starting point is 00:11:36 dinosaur? And mum would be like, well, it starts with D, go and get the Encyclopedia Britannica. You'd pull a giant dusty book out, you'd open it up. It was out of date because it was printed five years ago and of course human knowledge was just snowballing at that stage on dinosaurs. I'm a bit younger than you, so I just encarted this. Encarta 95. Well, we weren't doing well.
Starting point is 00:11:52 As I said, we didn't grow up in any form of wealth. Yeah, but now, look how the tables have turned. You've got an Alexa and we don't. Yeah. Sorry. All right, next on the show, the movie is out today. And we're going to talk to the lead actress, Anna Scottney. What's the movie called again?
Starting point is 00:12:08 Millie Lies Low. Millie Lies Low. Yes, she's in with us next. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. I know I'm a very big fan of the woman who is sitting next to me to the right. She's the star of the new Kiwi film, Millie Lies Low. Anna Scottney, kia ora. Kia ora, Hayley.
Starting point is 00:12:23 How are you? Really good. Now, once again, the boys are a bit taken aback by a theatre greeting. new Kiwi film, Millie Lies Low. Anna Scottney, kia ora. Kia ora, Hayley. How are you? Really good. Now, once again, the boys are a bit taken aback by a theatre greeting. Oh, my God. They grind, don't they? They grind. They grind, they touch, they move, they react.
Starting point is 00:12:35 We ground. It was grinding. I don't think you know you're doing it. I don't think you're Toy Fakare type. No, you're doing it. You're kind of like two oceans meeting in the middle of the Cook Strait. You know, there's a bit of... Do you know what's stupid?
Starting point is 00:12:47 One of the things to get in... Well, it's not stupid, but one of the things we both had to do to get into drama school was swim through an ocean. That was part of the audition. A fake ocean. A fake ocean on the floor.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Yeah, if you make it to the beach, you make it to drama school. We both made it to that beach. Yes, we made it to the beach, Anna. And the rest, as they say, is a history. Yeah. So a little bit of history, Anna. A lot of people will know you from The Breaker Opera's. Yeah. Your incredible character in Madeline Sami and Jackie Van Beek's film.
Starting point is 00:13:12 I know you were a teenage student in Aaron's drama class course, I guess, Long Cloud. Yeah. And now you are the star of Millie Lies Low. Yeah, well, right back at you. I mean, and we've jammed together on your beautiful short film that you co-wrote about marching. Well, I didn't want to bring it up. Is that okay that I did? I didn't want to bring it up that I made a short film and I put Anna in it in one of the lead roles.
Starting point is 00:13:35 And now your career took off afterwards? I mean, look, it's just, again, one of those moments we had to swim through the ocean and we had to feature in Hayley's little short. Yeah. Look, someone's got to be the rocket and someone's got to be the launch pad. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Now, the movie's out today. I've seen the trailer. It's a great idea for a movie. Yeah. It's very fun. Tell everybody what it's about. All right, so the film was conceptualised by the writer-director Michelle Saville
Starting point is 00:14:02 and it's basically about a young woman who I play called Millie and she has this epic opportunity to go and do quite a flash scholarship in architecture in New York City, has a complete meltdown and it sort of is spoiler alert, the film opens
Starting point is 00:14:18 on her having this big panic attack on the plane and then going off the plane and being like okay this is cooked and proceeding to lie her way into hopefully getting back and everything falls apart. So it's like we're working with a coming of age story. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Rite of passage, 72 hours roughly in the life of this woman as she's scrounging around Wellington whilst pretending to be in New City, having a radical time. And this film, I have to say, I mean, I know we've had a big, hefty pandemic in the middle, which Joe Biden recently announced it's over, so we can relax. So if Joe Biden says it, it must be true.
Starting point is 00:14:54 It must be true. Leader of the free world. That's right. But I actually auditioned for this role in 2018. Yeah, that's right. It's been so long, and I'm not upset. I just want to make that clear that I'm not upset. I just want to make that clear that I'm not upset.
Starting point is 00:15:06 But, like, I felt a grudge. I did feel a grudge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did bring up my audition tape. I brought up my audition tape for the boys.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Maybe you two need to get into a healing home or something. I don't know. House side falls. But, of course, like, you had to wait a long time to get this going.
Starting point is 00:15:26 When did you film it? Dude, it was dicey. Yeah, so auditions rolled out 2018. Great. Everything keeps developing across 2019. We get three and a half days into principal photography. No. Swipe to reveal.
Starting point is 00:15:38 The pandemic hits. We shut down for six months. Everyone's stressed. We come back. We complete shooting. And then you guys went into the monster one last year. So we try and do a little release in 2021 when it's ready to go. But then half of the key crew in Auckland, we're in Wellington.
Starting point is 00:15:53 So this is amazing. Like 2022, it's finally here and it's out and people can just watch it. You know, it's good to have closure. I feel like on the whole era. Yeah. I love this. I'm really excited for you, Anna, because you were one of the most phenomenal actresses.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I mean, if you ever have the chance to see Anna Scottley live, it's like no other experience. But you're fantastic on screen. People love doing regular operas. I'm getting shy now. Don't be shy. Stay to the mic. Kiwi, why are they? But I'm excited for you to take this lead role.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Yeah. Like, after this, what are you hoping for? Like, what are you hoping is next for you? I would really love to keep working in cinema. Like, I think I've realised I am a big movie geek.
Starting point is 00:16:32 So that would be rad. I thought you were going to say, I've just realised I'm a big movie star. And the world better recognise. So I just want to have you guys, I just want to let everyone know.
Starting point is 00:16:42 So I really want to keep working in film and like, you know, I think like lots of us from Wellington, I'm sure it's the same in Auckland, but just, you know, like trying our hand at like heaps of different parts of the process. So I kind of want to segue into maybe writing and directing. And I actually have a pipe dream side thing.
Starting point is 00:17:00 I really want to write a comic. I really want to write a graphic novel. A comic? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, you've got the life experience for it. You can watch Millie Lies Low. It's out today. And I promise you,
Starting point is 00:17:11 Anna Scottney will be incredible in it. Anna, a pleasure to see you. Love you, mate. And thanks for having me. I'm a huge ZM fan from way back. I used to record the Top 40 Countdown onto my little Sanyo CD and cassette thing as a kid. I'd be like, oh, Jojo's coming on.
Starting point is 00:17:29 It's get out, leave. I need to live record it onto my cassette. Stop talking, announcer. Yeah. God, he talked over the end. Damn him. Lovely to see you, Anna. You too.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Thanks, guys. Have a good one. Now, don't shoot the messenger, the reader of this story. I'm just saying. I'm just letting you know the gun's loaded. That if you are wanting to list your spare room on Airbnb or if you're lucky enough to have a secondary property or a holiday home or whatever,
Starting point is 00:18:02 you're probably going to want to pretend to be a man. Why? Because a study has found that females that list Airbnb places for rent, homes or entire places, earn less money than men. So they get less bookings. So they get less bookings and less... Or they probably undersell the house because they don't know their own worth. And women, you are worth it.
Starting point is 00:18:23 So they looked at listings in America. And what they did is they excluded any gender ambiguous names. So they were just looking for... Like Sam or Alex or... Or if they couldn't tell from the profile picture. Yeah, gotcha. Yeah, and they excluded all of them. And so they just had like single male and single female Airbnb hosts.
Starting point is 00:18:43 And they worked out and they looked at like average price listings for the entire year. Over 8,000 hosts across US cities. They found that females earn $30 less than male hosts. Oh, $30? A nightly rate. Oh, okay. I thought you meant over the course of a year. No, not the whole.
Starting point is 00:19:02 That's nothing. Slow steps. Baby steps. But yeah the course of a year. No, not the whole. That's nothing. Slow steps. You'll leave that slide. Baby steps. But yeah, $30 a night. So that would mean if you were going to list your spare room on Airbnb, you would want to say your name's Bruce and put a moustache on and take a photo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:20 It's got to be Hayden. Hayden. Hayley Hayden. Oh, yeah, Hayden. You're going for a straight. Yeah, I don't know that Bruce is the male-ization of Hayley. Yeah. It's got to be Hayden. Hayden. Hayley Hayden. Oh, yeah, Hayden. You're going for a straight. Yeah, I don't know that Bruce is the male-ization of Hayley. Yeah. Yours would be Carla.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Yeah. Carla. I'd be Vanessa, probably. Vanessa. Yeah. Vornessa. Siobhan. Siobhan.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Yeah, totally. Or can you list your Airbnb as like your spare room? Could you say your company name or do you have to put your personal name? I don't know but I will say look I am a feminist. However, it just sort of feels like the women aren't charging enough. Because do you set the price
Starting point is 00:19:55 on it? I don't know anything about Airbnb. Yeah and you don't haggle. You go this is the price and then someone books it and you go give me the price. So if they're earning $30 less it's because they're listing it for $30 less. So it's their fault. Yeah, it's a self-worth thing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:12 You know? So value yourself. Is that your? Yeah, value yourself. Look in the mirror and say three things you like about yourself or ask a friend to say them about you. Sort of an empowering. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Before you list your air B& Airbnb stand in the Superman pose. Yeah, that's right. Listening to that famous score from the Superman movie. Yeah, beautiful. Look in the mirror nude. Yeah. Stand there and admire your own worth. I don't know if that's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Look at it. Look at it! Take it in. I think that'll plunge the value of any Airbnb I list. Yeah, I'm terrible. Well, our neon top picks, it's your chance to win. Just giving you the details. We're going to call somebody back soon and hop them up once they give us their neon pick.
Starting point is 00:21:14 We have right now our top three neon picks right now. It's all thanks to now. And you can sign up for your seven-day free trial at neontv.co.nz. T's and C's apply. Who wants to go first? I'll go first. Okay. Mine's The Great. The Great about Catherine
Starting point is 00:21:26 the Great. Is this a movie or a TV show? Have you not seen The Great? No. Fletch. Vaughan, have you seen The Great? Al Fanning. Margot Robbie. Al Fanning. No, I haven't seen it either. Nicholas Holt. I haven't seen it. Guys, this is one of the
Starting point is 00:21:42 best shows. It's like a comedy. Yes, but it's weird, right? Yeah, it's kind of bizarre, and it's a comedy about Catherine Grey marrying, what's his name? Because he was up for the, Nicholas Holt was nominated, right, for an Emmy for this, right?
Starting point is 00:21:56 Yeah, it's so funny. Because you look at the costumes, you're like, it's another period piece. But it's so funny, and it's really great, and Al Fanning is amazing, and I hate to say it, but watch your back, Dakota. As and Al Fanning is amazing and I hate to say it, but watch your back Dakota. As your preferred Fanning. I am.
Starting point is 00:22:09 What about Bernard? Where does Bernard fit on the list? What about Mick Fanning? Who's Mick Fanning? Isn't he a surfer? Yeah, Mick. Mick Fanning, Bernard Fanning, a powder finger of Australian rock band Powderfinger. No. Mick Fanning is a surfer. You made me question that. I'm saying for me,
Starting point is 00:22:25 Elle, she's taken number one. Elle's your fan? Wow, she's your favourite Fanning. And I love a Dakota. Okay, that's another show I'm going to have to add to my list.
Starting point is 00:22:33 You actually have to watch this. Not me just saying, oh, it's a good show. It's one of my favourite shows. It's so funny. Well, you can watch it on my page. Season one was called
Starting point is 00:22:40 The Great and Occasionally True Story and season two is going to be called The Great and Almost Entirely Untrue Story. I've seen season two, yeah. I didn't know Nicholas Holt did comedy. Oh, he is so funny in it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:54 He plays Peter the Third. Please watch it. My pick for Neon is it's a bit of a catch-up season because season two of The White Lotus has been confirmed to start October 30. So we're a month away. It'll be on Neon season two. Season one you can watch if you haven't already seen it. It was a bit of a
Starting point is 00:23:13 post-pandemic hit really. The last episode of season one. To describe it, it's about the rich guests at a Hawaiian resort and just the demands and how messed up their lives are. It's a dark comedy.
Starting point is 00:23:32 It's not everybody's cup of tea. It's not. Because I was recommending it to everybody, and some people were like, oh, I didn't really. But, I mean, overall, it won heaps of Emmys as well. Jennifer Coolidge won a well-deserved Emmy for it. She's having a career moment. She's having won a well-deserved Emmy for it. She's having a career moment.
Starting point is 00:23:46 She's having a resurgence. Yeah. Good for her. And my suggestion would be Better Call Saul. All of the seasons. They're all on there, but it's finished now. So if you're one of those people that are like, I'll wait till it's all out,
Starting point is 00:23:59 usually that just means the end of a season. So you can binge it. You can binge all six seasons of Better Call Saul, which is... And people are saying better than Breaking Bad. I've got friends. Stop it. I know I've got friends that liked it better than Breaking Bad. And they've confirmed the lead actress in it is going to be working with Vince Gilligan again on another series.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Oh, right. She's pretty fantastic in it. Yeah, it follows Saul after Breaking Bad, but telling the story before it. Did you see that Rolling Stone did their top 100 greatest TV shows of all time? I think number one was Sopranos, also on Neon. Yeah. And I think number three was Breaking Bad. So I don't know where you'd better call Saul is.
Starting point is 00:24:36 All right. Well, those are our top picks for Neon, and we gave you the chance as well to give us yours to win. And Dana joins us. Good morning, Dana. Morning. What's your top pick on Neon? The Good Doctor.
Starting point is 00:24:50 The Good Doctor. We met that guy when he came in. Yes, we did. We did meet him. He was lovely. Freddie Highmore. That's him, yes. Oh, yes, I know this show. Six Seasons C, I love that. I love it when I see. Right, give us the synopsis, Dana.
Starting point is 00:25:08 So it's a doctor who pretty much has autism, but he's a brilliant doctor who can pretty much fit anything. Ah, right, okay, all right. So he was also, don't get it confused with his other role, as Charlie in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Was he Charlie in Charlie? He was, too. And the Johnny Depp one, yeah. Yes, he was also, don't get it confused with his other role, as Charlie in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Was he Charlie in Charlie? He was, too. And the Johnny Depp one, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Yes, he was, too. We don't talk about that. Donna, congratulations. We have for you a $250 Prezi card and a three-month neon subscription. Well done. Well done. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:25:43 From the self-driving ZM think Tank, this is the Top Six. Hello! Well, they've been losing in the top left-hand corner. If you've been on Vodafone, they've been losing letters, and people have been like, what's going on? Well, a bit of clever marketing there for a rebrand. It is going to be rebranding to One New Zealand. One News.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Yeah, One News. There's your comparison. But also, One NZ, even just two days ago, there was an article printed by, well, I'll say it, a group of racists. Yep. Who collectively know themselves as 1NZ. Oh, dear.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Yeah. Nobody ran a check. Yeah. Is there not a filter system of people to... Like, here's going to be our big new business name. Yeah. Let's run a check. Let's at least Google.
Starting point is 00:26:41 So they did it because to use Vodafone, which is an international brand, you have to pay millions of dollars to be associated with the brand. But I wouldn't even say the brand has that great a name. Telcos are always one of the most complained about, you know, brands. So they're going to spend a few million to change the name and rebrand, and then they won't have to pay millions each year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:02 I mean, that makes sense. But come up with a better name. So One New Zealand was the name of a short-lived political party modelled on Australia's One Nation Party founded by Pauline Hanson. Right. Yeah. Yeah. When this was mentioned on Twitter,
Starting point is 00:27:19 Jason Parris, CEO of Vodafone, said, One NZ has landed extremely well. 100% love that we are reinvesting the voter brand licensing money in New Zealand and that 1NZ stands for the best of New Zealand. Bracket, diversity, inclusion, trust, innovation, etc. Bracket, ultimately we won't be judged on the name, but the actions we take, that's our focus.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Okay, that's good coverage. Well, I guess they can redefine what it means, take it away from the racists. I'm sure they can. Yeah. Famously, things belonging to racists. I'm sure they can. Yeah. Famously, things belonging to racists have been super easy to take back, like the Hindu swastika. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Top six better names I've come up with in the last 20 minutes for One New Zealand. Do you have logos for these as well? Yeah, well, this current one is just a circle, so it'll just be some simple shape I whip up with a colour in the middle. Number six on the list is the Yes We Still Sponsor The. That's what it's called. Because they sponsor the Warriors. Yes We Still Sponsor The.
Starting point is 00:28:12 And then on the Warriors shirts, it already says Warriors. And then the phone company called Yes We Still Sponsor The. I don't think that's a bit long for a phone company. Yes We Still Sponsor The. Yeah. New Zealand Music Awards. Yes. See?
Starting point is 00:28:28 What are you going to write in the top right-hand corner of the mobile screen under the bars? Yes. Isn't that a network? Is it an Australian network? Yes, Optus. Optus, yes, or something? Yeah, but they don't own yes. They probably do.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Probably don't sell for anything they do. Sponsor. God, this marketing thing's not that easy, is it? That's a piece of cake. Done. Probably don't sell for nothing. They do. Sponsor. God, this marketing thing's not that easy, is it? That's a piece of cake. Done. Number five on the list of the top six. Hey, what's the logo? For that one, it is a red square.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Top six better names than 1NZ. Number five. When they were losing letters, at one stage, they were Defone. Yeah. Because they'd lost the V and the O off the start of Vodafone. Defone. That's way better. Defone.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Defone. Have you seen my phone? Which phone? Defone. Yeah. What network are you on? Defone. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Defone. What network is Defone on? 021, you know, Defone. It works. Yeah, it does work. And the logo is a blue pentagram. Number four on the list of the top six better names than 1NZ, number four is 4NZ.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Oh, yeah. You're four, New Zealand. Yeah. And like you said before, one. There's a TV channel called One. Yeah. There's not a TV channel called Four anymore. Yeah. Is it not a TV channel called Four anymore. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Is it a Bravo or something? So Four NZ, you're Four New Zealand. Yeah, I like that. Very close to Fouries though, isn't it? Yeah, it is. How did you take it to Foreskin? What is wrong with you? You can't say the number four without immediately thinking of a Foreskin.
Starting point is 00:30:00 I say the number four. It's a simple word association. So when you're on a golf course, you're walking and you hear, four, and your immediate reaction is, skin. Yeah. And then you get a golf ball to the temple. What's that you've got in your hand? Who's that for?
Starting point is 00:30:13 Skin. So you're not even saying the number four. You're saying four in any use of it. So what's your logo? It's a big four, isn't it? It's a yellow cylindrical. It's a cylinder. It's yellow. Okay. All right. It's a big four, isn't it? It's a yellow cylindrical. It's a cylinder. It's yellow.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Okay. All right. It's a yellow cylinder. Number three on the list of the top six better names than 1NZ is N-F-Y-I-Y-L-R. What is that? It stands for not for you if you live rurally. Oh, my God. The amount of people that come out to my house and they're like,
Starting point is 00:30:41 God, I can't. I don't even have a phone reception. Our house, there's literally, you've got to stand in the corner of the porch and hold it up. I'm like, Vodafone? Yeah. Yeah. No, not for you. Not for you out here.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Not for you if you live rurally. And that is a... A hay bale. A green... No, because I already used yellow. Oh, yeah, okay, yeah. Okay, that is a green triangle. Upside down. Okay, great. Top green triangle. Upside down.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Okay, great. Top heavy triangle. Yeah. Number two on the list of the top six better names than one NZ for Vodafone changing it up. Tangy Fruits. A phone network called Tangy Fruits. Because it's an established New Zealand brand
Starting point is 00:31:20 that everyone's got a nostalgic feel for. Yeah, right. So what's Tangy Fruits roaming like? Oh, great, great. We're actually working on making Tangy Fruits a better rural connector. You know, we're expanding our rural network here at Tangy Fruits.
Starting point is 00:31:36 It is stupider than 1NZ. Do what? The Tangy Fruit Network? Yeah. TF. TF Network. Yeah, TF. What does TF stand for? Tangy Fruits. Yeah. TF. TF Network. Yeah, TF. What does TF stand for?
Starting point is 00:31:46 Tangy Fruits. Totally do it. And the one is... That's got to be a multicoloured... It's an orange circle. Oh, their logo, right. It's an orange circle. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:31:57 And number one on the list of the top six better names than one NZ, Altefona. You're welcome. It sounds like you're bastardising the Māori language there. I was going to say, I can't see a problem with it. There's not an F in the Māori language. No, it's a PH. Does PH mean WH?
Starting point is 00:32:21 Well, we're in the development stage. No one here is getting cancelled. No need, buddy. It's going to be A one here is getting cancelled. No need, no need. It's going to be old hair for now. Yeah, that works well as well. That works well. See, I'm glad to have you on board for consultation. And what's the logo?
Starting point is 00:32:32 Oh, you want a Kodo, do you? No. Oh, cancelled. Yikes. Let's get out of here. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Starting point is 00:35:00 But what I'm saying is we harmonize so well. Watch Out Boyz II Men. I know it's not Boyz II Men. It's Aaron Neville, isn't it? Sure. No, no. no, but what I'm saying is we harmonise so well. Watch our voices. I know it's not boys. It's Aaron Neville, isn't it? Sure. No, no, you're thinking of. As men say, all men for a shame.

Starting point is 00:35:45 Taihoa. I am happily married and very much in love with my husband, although I did have a very, capitals, erotic dream about Fletch the other night. Shock face. What do you reckon you did? Eggplant emoji. Drip emoji. Cry face emoji.

Steph says, I've been single for 11 years and bloody love it. Sonia Dada, You Don't Treat Me No Good. That was the one we were singing. Steph says, I've been single for 11 years and bloody love it.
Starting point is 00:36:48 I live on my own with two cats. So to me, I'm living the dream. Don't get me wrong, I like to have my fun. Wink, wink. But get out of my apartment
Starting point is 00:36:55 by the morning. Oh, am I the female version of Fletch? I was going to say, that's very, I love my cats. I love my space. Yeah, but I don't have two cats.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Yet. Yet. Yeah, true. don't have two cats. Yet. Yet. Yeah, true. Dreams could come true, though. Yeah. Tamsin says, single, I like my peace and quiet and dating. To find someone decent that I'm compatible with is my worst nightmare. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Single and not ready to mingle. Amy, lol, where's the kinder option for us in situationships? Oh, like what? Friends with Benny. That's the kind of thing for us in situationships. Oh, like what? Friends with Bennings. That's the kind of thing. You've got to pick. So a travel buddy maybe that you... Ready?
Starting point is 00:37:35 Everybody plays the fool. Listen to the voice. Everybody plays the fool. Everybody wants to rule. Listen, baby. What am I laughing at? The guy's made millions of dollars, but that's just a funny voice. That's just a funny voice.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Everybody plays the fool. Are we done with Sarah Neville? What do you want to play, Sonia Dada? Yeah, please please. Do it. Oh, I'll do it. I got it here. I just thought you had it.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Mind up. Wrong one. No, do it. Oh, I'll do it. I got it here. I just thought you had it. Mind up. Wrong one. No, Rob's the right one. You're listening to ZM. Why didn't you cue it up to the bit where he... No, you need to set the time. Right, okay. Okay, we can listen
Starting point is 00:38:28 to this on our own time. Okay, the song rules. The song rules. No doubt, the song rules. Next on the show... No, we've got more responses. You've got more responses? What are you screwing
Starting point is 00:38:39 your nose up at? Something else. Polly says, single, but I'm still wasting my time with a one-night stand from seven years ago. Oh, okay. So that doesn't sound like...
Starting point is 00:38:48 What, is that ongoing for seven years? That's not single. Dude. Yeah. That person's not willing to, you know, make it official after that long. They're wasting your best years. Lover, la-la-la-la. You don't treat me no good no more.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Why am I taking the bottom and you're on top? I can't do the bottom, you know that. Lover, la-la-la-la, you don't treat me no good no more. Play ZM's Fletch Von Anele. Well, the first ever cameo millionaire is James Buckley, who you may remember as Jay from The Inbetweeners The Inbetweeners was the show Four young British lads
Starting point is 00:39:29 Yep One of the wildest coming of age TV shows ever It was brilliant Like the 2010s How was it aged? I don't know because I watched it so long ago The first time I watched it It was one of those shows
Starting point is 00:39:44 Where I didn't think I was possibly going to see anything funnier. Like, I'm just laughing. Friends. Friends. Football friends. Because it was so much what? Being in a small group of dudes was like growing up. Like, we had a really tight-knit little group,
Starting point is 00:40:01 and we just treated each other like absolute shit. Yeah, we got to meet a couple of them as well. Over the in-betweeners. When they came into the studio. Yeah, that's right. Like, what, eight years ago? Yeah. But it's a cameo, for those that don't know,
Starting point is 00:40:12 is where you pay celebrities to record, like, a video message for your dad or your friend for their birthday. And it's normally, it's not, I'm not meaning to be disrespectful, but it's normally, like, your A-grade celebrities aren't on there either. There are some people on there that surprise me, but they just charge so much that I'm guessing they have made it worth their time. But this guy doesn't charge that much. I think last time I looked, it was like very reasonable.
Starting point is 00:40:38 It was like £100, maybe a little bit more. The sad one is they have like the clearance bin. I know. On sale. Like the celebrities that are doing special rates for cameos. And it's like, no. Because it's my birthday next week and I thought it would be a really easy gift for you guys to get me a cool cameo. So I'm having a look as to who I would want.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Oh, okay. That sounds like a lot of effort. Oh, Tom Felton. How much is he charging? Was that a thousand dollars? Lucius Malfoy. Draco Malfoy. See, a thousand dollars would be out of reach for most people,
Starting point is 00:41:12 but if you were doing 200. But if you were a ginormous Harry Potter fan, right, and you got 10 friends together to chip in a hundred bucks, that's a cool bet. It's still a lot of money, though. So I'm looking, you can book a personalized video from James Buckley from $80 New Zealand dollars. So how many?
Starting point is 00:41:31 To make a million dollars? So much. He must have done so many. 12,000? No, get out. That would be, how many years has he been? He's been doing it for a long time. No, he joined in 2020.
Starting point is 00:41:46 I thought he'd been doing it since the start of Cameo. So has he earned a million dollars after their fees? I'm imagining no. He's just the one that's clocked up however many Cameos he's done. So divide that by two years. How many is he doing a day? So let's just say 12,000 isn't right because it was US 1 million. Right.
Starting point is 00:42:08 And I was doing Kiwi 1 million. So it's probably more like 1.5 million New Zealand dollars. Wow. Right? Yeah. Okay, so let's call it 1.5 million New Zealand dollars. Yeah. Divided by 80, that's the cheapest you can get.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Yeah. 18,750 videos. Wow. And let's say he's done, when did he join in 2020? Let's just round it. Let's say it's two years. Let's say it's been three years.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Okay. Three, he's been there for three years. 6,250 a year. Divided by 365. Oh, I did two. Swipe back. That's a Vaughn hack. He's doing 17 a day.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Every day. What? And that's if he's been there for three full years. But I bet he's doing his character lines, which would be a lot easier than if you were just a movie actor and you didn't have famous lines. Yeah. You just trot out your character.
Starting point is 00:42:58 It would be super easy. Hey, Fletch. Yeah. There are some examples here. I'm scared to click them because they might have swirvels in them. Because that's the thing. But Jared, I believe Jared's put an example in the... In the weird little button bar.
Starting point is 00:43:11 In the button bar. I'm assuming... No, he hadn't. Sorry, I thought he said one's in there. He didn't. That was about something else. Yeah, you're hearing things, aren't you? Do we roll the dice on listening to one?
Starting point is 00:43:20 He's foul-mouthed. He's foul-mouthed, though. Yeah, I know. That's why it's a real roll of the... I don't think so. Okay. I'm going to one. He's foul-mouthed. He's foul-mouthed, though. Yeah, I know. That's why it's a real roll of the... I don't think so. Okay. I'm going to do it. Hello there.
Starting point is 00:43:30 James Buckley here. Now I know what you're thinking. That's enough. That was enough. I don't know what I'm thinking. I wasn't even thinking. He just does that, and he's earned... Oh, that's insane.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Do we need to get a cameo? Oh, no, absolutely not. It is so un-Kiwi to do cameo. There's a lot of AFL. I'm just looking at cameo now. A lot of AFL and Aussies on there. Yeah, a lot of Australians. Like Andrew Johns, NRL legend and commentator.
Starting point is 00:43:57 He's charging $160. Looking under musicians, we've got Jesse McCartney. We've got Nikki Webster. How much is Jesse McCartney? $400. $400? Check yourself. Oh, got Nikki Webster. How much is Jesse McCartney? $400. $400? Check yourself. Oh, the All Blacks.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Check yourself. The All Blacks are all temporarily unavailable. Oh, is it because they're on the... You've been doing the lettuce line. Knuckle down, yeah. No cameos in camp. Oh, right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Yeah, no, because I was sort of hoping for maybe, you know, a Brian May from Queen or a Kanye. Oh, Kanye East, I beg your pardon. Kanye East. Kanye East is judging. Who's Kanye East? An absolute Kanye West lookalike called Kanye East for $45. You can get a Ray J for $356.
Starting point is 00:44:37 You can get a Danny Morrison New Zealand cricket legend for $160. Oh, okay. A lot of the Love Island season contestants are on there as well. Justin Hawkins, the lead singer of The Darkness. I've been following him on social media lately. Yes, he's great on social meds. All right, next on the show, we've got a special guest in. Yeah, our friend Emily, who we've known for many, many years,
Starting point is 00:44:59 is doing a project underway for Mental Health Awareness Week called Chatterbox, a seat to sit down and chat to people. We're going to talk to her about that next. It is Mental Health Awareness Week right here in Aotearoa, New Zealand this week. And there's lots of initiatives happening around. We've got a guest, Emily, in studio, who we're going to talk to about Chatterbox, which is a seat in Auckland Park where if you see someone sitting there,
Starting point is 00:45:29 you can stop and have a chat and ask them if everything's okay. But I do want to put a little trigger warning here. There are subjects that not everybody feels comfortable listening to, and we do cover the subject of suicide in this chat. So if that's not for you, we'll see you in five minutes.
Starting point is 00:45:44 But right now, Emily, hello. Hi, Kia ora. Kia ora, welcome. Thanks for having me. Oh, an absolute pleasure. We've known you for years. We actually met you through your husband, Daryl.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Yeah, I've got stories, guys. I've got stories from a lot. And I'm willing to sell not for too much money. When Daryl met my wife, he said to her, God, I've got some stories about Vaughn from before
Starting point is 00:46:04 you knew him. And I was like, what are you talking about? Shut up. What are you talking about? Shush, sir. Shush, sir. Three bags full, sir. But we lost Daryl a few, how long ago now?
Starting point is 00:46:16 So 2019, which crazy, isn't it? It's three and a half years. But to me, to the kids, to friends and whanau, that could be yesterday, to be honest. Yeah, totally. Well, he was one of those personalities. He was everywhere and often something would happen, you'd be like, Daryl.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Yeah, totally. Joy of the party, huge confidence, millions and millions of friends. Yet he was a guy who had bipolar and when he died, a really, really small handful of people actually knew that because he carried such a deep self-stigma that he was going to be treated differently and he was going to be judged. So it was just too hard a conversation for him to bring up with people.
Starting point is 00:46:55 So he actually consciously hid it, which is bloody sad. Yeah, because it was a shock, wasn't it, for a lot of people? A lot of people. Yeah, most people didn't know. Yeah, single digits really in terms of those who were, and you know, supported him tremendously. But I think it's, what it's sort of done to me in the last couple of years has gone, I need to help and change conversation in a really, really particular way. And I think that's where Chatterbox has come from. So in my kind of mind, we need to make it easier to chat. And we need to make it easier to chat about big things. And we need to be present with each other. And yeah, Chatterbox is designed to kind of be a physical place to do that, but also a symbol
Starting point is 00:47:35 as well. Do you think I was going to ask you, because that's not that long ago, 2019. Yeah. I was going to say, do you feel like it's changing? Do you feel like people, because I always, I feel like I've got a Do you feel like people, because I always, I feel like I've got a warped perspective because of the circles I run in, which is mostly artists, creatives, who are pretty, a lot of the time depressed, but expressive and chatty about it.
Starting point is 00:47:56 And it's a real big conversation in the arts industry. But I don't know if that's the case sort of New Zealand wide. Are we talking more every year? Is it getting better? Do you know, I'm in exactly the same position as you. I feel it is, but I think we've still got a huge amount of work to do for all of New Zealand to have that kind of comfort
Starting point is 00:48:14 because there is still that stigma of how do I actually start the conversation? Yeah. And I think there's this expectation as well that we always lean on the person who's having the struggles or feeling life is a bit tough to step forward as opposed to all of us, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:27 really consciously making an environment with the language we use, with the time we put into people. We had that conversation recently just before World Suicide Prevention Day. And someone came in, I'm sorry, I've forgotten her name, but she said, you know, often we say to people, you know, if you're feeling depressed, if you're feeling down, reach out.
Starting point is 00:48:46 You reach out, talk to someone. That's not the headspace people are often in. That is absolutely right. So it's more like if you are not in that headspace or you see someone who is, how can you be more proactive as someone who might be able to see that in them? That's exactly right. And we can all actually help every single day by just getting more comfortable with having great open conversations. And I think putting down the phone, being present, spending time with each other, it's in all of us to be able to do that because it actually helps regardless of how we're feeling. It's so, so good and helps our wellbeing.
Starting point is 00:49:19 So Chatterbox is street furniture that's starting in Auckland that I'm imagining you'd love to see roll out throughout the country. Absolutely the ambition. At the moment, the first one's at Pointe Chevre Beach and it sits overlooking the water.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Beautiful spot. The idea is you go and sort of sit down, you have a korero with somebody. If you wander past and someone's sitting by themselves,
Starting point is 00:49:39 you know, that's over to all of us to stop and actually sit with them and say, how are you? And have that conversation. It's a nice looking park bench too.
Starting point is 00:49:47 It's a nice. It's nice. We welcome it. Yeah. You don't want some sort of blistery, splintery thing. No, no, no. It's soft. Yeah, something that gets really hot in the summer sun.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Like, you know. Yeah, I don't think that's going to give you any issues. No, no, I don't think it will. And it's got a great space at the back where ideally it's for people to kind of picnic or sit on or chat. But with Daz in mind, I think dance floor. I would love to dance floor. We kind of touched on it before when we were reaching out to people,
Starting point is 00:50:13 but I honestly thought Daryl would have been the last person because as you said, life of the party, carried a party. If he was at a party that he wasn't living up to party expectations, he doubled down to make it the party. He was the life of the party. Yeah, he was. So how would you know that your friend that's the life of the party isn't always the life of the party if that's all you see, you know?
Starting point is 00:50:34 It's so tricky, isn't it? But again, it's just really making this conversation open. Yeah. And I think sometimes we all say, you know, wander past or catch up with a mate and say, how are you? But are we really actually listening for how they are? Are we looking at some of the signs? Are we keeping an eye?
Starting point is 00:50:51 Are we genuinely going to ask, how are you again? Yeah. If we're not quite sure. I think we've become just a little bit fast in life. Yeah. We move beyond the present a bit tricky. But man, what a man, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:02 What an absolute legend. He was. He was, yeah. As we've all said, it took what a man, right? Yeah. What an absolute legend. He was. He was, yeah. As we've all said, it took us so much by surprise. Yeah. But you're doing a great thing now, spearheading this campaign.
Starting point is 00:51:12 And I hope this rolls out over the country and people can have a space to just chat. Yeah, fantastic. Awesome. Thanks so much for coming in. Absolute pleasure.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Bye. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Gwyneth Paltrow's on Instagram, by the way, this picture of Gwyneth Paltrow. At 8 million followers, 600,000 likes at present. Gwyneth Paltrow to celebrate turning 50, painted herself gold and posed nude. I mean, you would if you had that body at 50, wouldn't you?
Starting point is 00:51:41 I'd do it if I had the body now. Probably mostly because I woke up with a woman's body. I don't know how that happened. And your first thought would be to paint yourself gold. I'm going to paint myself gold and take a photo of this and put it on Instagram. That's why I'd do that if I had that body. But yeah, she celebrated
Starting point is 00:51:58 her 50th by doing this little bit extra. She is definitely that person in the group of friends that's a bit much. It's a bit extra. Can't just do something. Has to go over the top. Has to go over the top, you know. And we've all got them.
Starting point is 00:52:10 We've all got. And that's what we want to talk about this morning. Your friends that are a bit extra. That are a bit much. I mean, it's not a bad thing. They just celebrate. They just love to celebrate. Whereas most of us are a bit, we're just, you know.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Casual. Casual. Yeah, casual celebrator. It's my birthday, sure. My friend Sam every year has a full day celebration, and sometimes it lasts two days. It's always bottomless brunch in the morning, then cocktails at the Hilton, then you go up to a bar,
Starting point is 00:52:38 and everyone has to arrive, and then you have to go around the circle and say a story about him, and then your worst story about him, and then follow it to go around the circle and say a story about him and then your worst story about him and then follow it up with something earnest and you're not allowed to leave. He has to be the first one to go home. Too much. And, yeah, you're only free to leave once he is done with the day. How would I be able to do a ghost?
Starting point is 00:52:57 And this happens every year. You couldn't ghost his birthday? You're not allowed. Oh, wow. He has to ghost his birthday. Right. Yeah. But every year this happens. Even Aaron is like, what are you doing this weekend? I'm like, oh, it's Sam's birthday. He's like, all right, we'll see you on Monday. Oh, wow. He has to ghost his birthday. Right. Yeah. But every year this happens.
Starting point is 00:53:05 Even Aaron is like, what are you doing this weekend? I'm like, oh, it's Sam's birthday. He's like, all right, we'll see you on Monday. See you later. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:53:13 He's definitely my most extra friend in that way. Oh, and we do a photo shoot. You have to have a photo shoot. Oh, wow. You've seen that recently on Instagram. That's my friend Sam. We had a photo shoot. You've got to have a photo shoot.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Yeah. I love that. Yeah. I don't, I'm, I wouldn't say, I'm not that extra. I am cool, relaxed, casual, you know? Yeah, yeah. But every friend group has one, don't they? I reckon every friend's got one that goes a little bit overboard.
Starting point is 00:53:37 Like, if you're like, oh, well, yeah, pop around. We'll just chuck some sausages on the barbecue. It'll be low key. And they turn up with like a three meter long platter. I just whip this up, and I'm always like, but at the same time, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:53:50 this is, look at this. But friends that cater and bake and bring that stuff to your party are the best friends. Oh yeah, absolutely. They're extra and great.
Starting point is 00:54:00 Maybe it's the way they dress, you know, like you're going, oh, we're going out for the night. And I'm going for, you know, jeans and a nice, oh, we're going out for the night. And I'm going for, you know, jeans and a nice top.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Yeah. I went and got my colours done at Mac. Yeah. Wait, wait, we're just going to a quiz night. Yeah, hang on. You need to pump the brakes. Yeah, I know,
Starting point is 00:54:15 but look at my contouring. Look at these cheekbones. Look at that. Bit of a shimmer on the bone. Look at this new dress. You're like, relax. All right.
Starting point is 00:54:23 We want to take your calls. 0800-DARS-AT-M. Give us a call. Text 9696. For your friends that are a little bit, you know, they're a little bit extra. They always go overboard. We're talking about if you've got a friend that's a little extra.
Starting point is 00:54:36 They go overboard. Yeah. With, I don't know, celebrating something. Gwyneth Paltrow painted herself gold and went nude on the gram for her 50th. I might do that for my 33rd. But she only went gold because it's the golden anniversary. Oh, right. What's 33rd anniversary?
Starting point is 00:54:53 33rd anniversary. Palaeominium. Next is amethyst. Oh. Celebrate the colour and vibrancy of your 33rd wedding anniversary. With a gorgeous violet amethyst. So we want to know if you've got an extra friend, a friend that goes over the top, like Gwyneth Paltrow.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Somebody messaged in saying their friends arrived at a wedding, not their own, in a helicopter. God, that would make such a ruckus. Imagine if you arrived late as well. And the ceremony started. You're a helicopter pilot, and you offer to also bring the bride and or groom, right? Yeah, but you don't bring yourself. No, you don't bring yourself or get dropped off in a helicopter.
Starting point is 00:55:34 Sorry we're late, everybody. Traffic was killer, so we took the chop off. And blow the marquee away. Yeah. We've just had a text through someone through a party that was themed about themselves. Everyone had to come dressed as that person. That's a good idea. Imagine a Hayley themed party.
Starting point is 00:55:49 That's kind of a funny idea for a party. Yeah. Didn't everyone dress like you one day with a raglan tee? That was Ross. We all dressed like Ross. We all dressed like Ross for Ross' birthday. Yeah, that was fun. We've all been in a raglan tee for my birthday, I think, as well.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Raglan tee and a beanie. Ah, beautiful combo. Beautiful combo. Somebody said, ah, we were going camping, and our friend turned up with a rooftop tent and, like, all brand-new camping gear. Never went camping again. A rooftop tent?
Starting point is 00:56:16 Well, one that you put on the top of a four-wheel drive. Or the fancy Kathmandu. Oh, yeah. For one trip. Oh, yeah. Dropped thousands. It's got six rooms? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Six rooms. Oh, we're all going in together. No, we're just, everyone's For one trip. Oh, yeah. Dropped thousands. It's got six rooms. Yeah. Six rooms. Oh, we're all going in together. No, we're just, everyone's a BYO tent. But you know what? Maybe this is me now. Maybe I like camping. Those people never like camping. No.
Starting point is 00:56:38 I've been doing some DIY. You have. Painting. Yeah. Because I was like, how hard can painting be? Real hard. Painting sucks. It's real hard. Painting. Because I was like, how hard can painting be? Real hard. Painting sucks. It's real hard. It sucks. It sucks. My arms
Starting point is 00:56:52 hurt, my back hurts from the painting. I remember one summer I came back, I painted the exterior of our house and I came back to the gym after summer and she was like, oh my god, you've been working out so much, your shoulders are jacked. And I was like, I didn God, you've been working out so much. Your shoulders are jacked. And I was like, I didn't work at it all.
Starting point is 00:57:07 It's painting. It's that. Up and down, up and down. So I'm not doing like a massive amount of painting. I'm just doing one room because I got some plugs put in. My favourite. Like right next to my bed
Starting point is 00:57:19 so I don't need an extension cord. Oh my God. Life changing. Yeah, he's gone. I've told you you can buy them. They run on batteries now. I don't know why you keep plugging yours in at the wall. The phones.
Starting point is 00:57:28 Yeah, what? Oh, no, not that. Oh, no. No, but I do have a USB in my plug. Oh, life-changing. What are you buying plug-ins for? Yeah, well, no, he's got that one from the 70s, and he said it's harder wearing.
Starting point is 00:57:40 Oh, right. Yeah, I just can't let it go. No. So anyway, some lights were moved and stuff, and so I needed to paint the wall, plaster and paint it. So it's always that thing when you go to patch, and then now you're like, oh, I'm going wider, I'm painting the whole wall.
Starting point is 00:57:52 That's pretty much what happened. Because you can tell, because your walls are white, right? Yeah. And then even white, and I'm not saying you're dirty or you're filthy, or you're smoking dummies inside. They get dirty. And they hadn't been painted for years. And you put fresh white on. You can see it.
Starting point is 00:58:05 And that's what happened. I did this patch and I was like, you know what? I'm just going to do the whole room and it's all going to be nice. And so I've been doing that. And I'm nearly finished. And do you guys do that thing where when you do something, you just sit back and look at it and you're like, I did that. And then you leave the room.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Dude, I reckon. And then walk back in and go, that's nice. I did that. I did that. That's a thing. And then walk back in and go, that's nice. I did that. I did that. That's a thing. There'll be other industries that it happens in, but we leave work at the end of the day with nothing physical to show for it. I know.
Starting point is 00:58:34 It's done. It's out there. Out the mouth. It lives somewhere. But it's why I love mowing the lawns or trimming a hedge. Afterwards, you look at it and you're like, done. Yes. That's so satisfying.
Starting point is 00:58:44 And you just stand there and you look. Visual yes that's so satisfying and you just stand there and you look visual proof and I did something yeah and I kept doing that thing I walked back in the room and I'm like
Starting point is 00:58:50 huh it's real nice I do it after every time I work out I go work out I come back take off my clothes I go look at that
Starting point is 00:58:56 look at that look what I did I did that I did that god that made a difference you can see why dads that build houses drive past them
Starting point is 00:59:03 and I did that I built that house dad always does that as a builder like You can see why dads that build houses drive past them. I did that. I built that house. Dad always does that as a builder. Like driving around town, I built that. My granddad was a painter. He painted nearly every house in Dargaville. I've been going there since I was a child. I painted that.
Starting point is 00:59:14 It hasn't been smooth sailing, guys, this painting business. God, he's painted everywhere. He's made an absolute bloody scene out of it. And then yesterday, so I was very close to finishing. I've got a couple of little patches to do, but I just needed to do behind the door. And like, I'm looking at these walls, they're all beautiful and white and not a scratch on them.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Perfect. Perfection. And I'm like getting behind the door, but the carpet that I had to pull up is kind of in the way. So I yank it, and that's when the ladder that's on the carpet falls onto the ladder that's on the carpet falls onto the wall that
Starting point is 00:59:48 I just painted. Bloody amateur Not only does it dent the wall, it slides down the wall making giant scratch marks. And I'm like, are you kidding me? It's a repaint. Oh wait, did you have to patch it? No, I had to repatch it and repaint
Starting point is 01:00:04 it. Unbelievable. That's mask. Yeah. That's hot though. So you patched and painted. And then I stood there and I was like, huh, I did that. I did that and then I had to re-do that and I re-done it. Now I've really done it. And now I've really done it. I just can't wait that your weekend,
Starting point is 01:00:19 it's nearly Friday, is just going to be your weekend, it's nearly Friday, is just going to be you walking in and out of your room being like, that's nice. That's nice. I did that. But then now does every other wall need painting? Yeah, because every wall I walk past is like, that's not as white as that wall.
Starting point is 01:00:34 It's a bit dirty. You got the same white, I assume. Silly question, but there's a thousand whites. Yeah, not initially. What white did you go with? Black white, half black white? That's why we've had to paint, because it wasn't the same white. It wasn't the same white.
Starting point is 01:00:44 There was a little mix up with the numbers and the letters. But it's all the same white now. Right. Black white. Paint's not cheap, is it? Oh, no. Half black white? God, no.

Starting point is 01:12:38 Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Day, day, day, day, day. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. My children have been homesick this week. Nasty cold, not COVID. I made sure they went very deep with the rat swabs. Yeah, right back. They still won't do a throat. Oh, that's the way to know, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:13:06 The throat. Yeah, that's the throat. We went deep in the nose. But go throat before the nose because you don't want to be wiping boogers. I made that mistake. We've all picked our nose and eaten it at some stage, so let's not get too high and mighty in our ivory towers.
Starting point is 01:13:20 People always say, oh, no, I didn't. I never did. It's like, you know what it tastes like, though, don't you? Salty. Yes. How did you know that? Hummusy, no, I didn't. I never did. It's like, you know what it tastes like, though, don't you? Salty. Yes. How did you know that? Hummus-y, if I might say it. Salty hummus.
Starting point is 01:13:31 You'll never eat hummus the same again. I've been living with that burden. It's about time I shed it. Well, my children have been home, and I've said, well, if you're home sick, the only screen time you're allowed has to be educational, and I want proof, damn it. Oh, okay. So they've been doing little assignments in the morning, and they present them to me when I get home. They're allowed. It has to be educational and I want proof, damn it. Oh, okay. Wow, dad. So they've been doing little assignments
Starting point is 01:13:46 in the morning and they present them to me when I get home. They're sick. Why don't you just let them watch cartoons or whatever kids do? What a dick, eh?
Starting point is 01:13:53 Yeah. You are a mean dad. That's all they do when they're well. I'm a mean dad. I'm trying to raise some bloody astronauts. Right, okay.
Starting point is 01:14:03 I'm not raising astronauts. But yesterday, there was a presentation upon my arrival home on hedgehogs. And this is today's fact of the day. I would like to read you the exact what my daughter Indy wrote. And they wrote this together. Yeah. So I'll be talking about hedgehogs. This is their presentation.
Starting point is 01:14:23 First fact, ancient Egyptians thought hedgehogs were a sign of good luck. So whenever they saw one, they'd be like, OMG, slay, good luck is coming our way. Good luck. Did you know there are more than one type of hedgehog? Then it carries on with the rest of it. So you imagine in ancient Egypt, the pharaohs are enslaving people to build pyramids and a hedgehog crawls by and they're like, OMG, slay.
Starting point is 01:14:51 We're going to get this done today because I just saw a hedgehog. And good luck, it's coming our way. Great. So I said, I don't believe the ancient Egyptians ever said slay in the term that we use it in a modern sense. And they said, how do you know? And to be honest, I don't. You don't know.
Starting point is 01:15:06 That's exactly how the hieroglyphics, the hieroglyphics were all very flamboyant. Yeah. Whoa, alligator in a pot. What are you going to do about it? So maybe they did. Maybe they were quite flamboyant in there. But then I was like, well, did they even have hedgehogs?
Starting point is 01:15:21 I looked into it. Well, I've learned something. I learned today's fact of the day off my daughter's because yes, in ancient Egyptian society, the hedgehog had a very favourable reputation. Wow. And they had two types of hedgehogs that they were familiar with that lived in the area
Starting point is 01:15:35 and have been depicted in the form of amulets. Because where were the hedges in the desert? Exactly. Well, they didn't call them hedgehogs. I believe that's a much later European name for them. I don't even know if they called them hogs. They might have had a different name for them altogether. Right.
Starting point is 01:15:54 So, yeah, the long-eared hedgehog and the desert hedgehog. Right. Have been depicted in art in amulets and they were a good luck. You would wear them if you were sailing. Yep. You'd wear a hedgehog. I don't know why. Have you ever seen a hedgehog dead in a pool filter?
Starting point is 01:16:12 Yeah. Not great swimmers. Not great swimmers. I wonder what a hedgehog would look like dead on State Highway 1 when it had been run over by a chariot. Oh, yeah. A thin wheel straight through it, squished out either side. Not a thick wheel.
Starting point is 01:16:26 Yes. Like when it gets hit by a modern rubber tyre. Interesting. Interesting to comprehend. Have you seen a bald hedgehog? Yeah, it's real sad, isn't it? Oh, so wait, bald's funny to you now, is it? No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:16:39 Cancel. Cancel. It does look like one half of a scrotum, doesn't it? It looks like a scrotum, yeah. Oh, my God, it does look like a big giant testy. Look it up, guys. If you're a hedgehog and you're thinking about what you can do for Halloween this year, get together with another hedgehog.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Yeah. Have a shave. Have a shave. That's a funny. And hang off the back of a tow bar. When they lose the pricks. Truck nuts. Dude, sometimes when I'm driving, I look at people in traffic and I'm like,
Starting point is 01:17:10 I wonder if I'd be friends with that person or I wonder what their life's like. And then if they pass me and they've got truck nuts, I'm immediately like, no. Truck nuts are so funny. I would not be friends with someone that drives a car with truck nuts. They're not my people. I feel like you. It's a tribal marking to me. I've got a tow bar.
Starting point is 01:17:31 Yeah, okay, good to know. Good to know. Get some truck nuts. Well, someone's got a birthday coming up, don't they? Someone's got to get a little set of truck nuts. So today's fact of the day is when ancient Egyptians saw hedgehogs, they would say, OMG, slay. Good luck is coming our way.
Starting point is 01:17:49 Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Hold my hand, hold my Hold my hand, hold my hand I'll be right here Hold my hand Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley Play ZM This is a real what would you do moment. A guy in Australia,
Starting point is 01:18:22 I believe that's the country, just north of ours. I would have said northwest or west. Yeah, northwest. Nobody eats soggy wheat bakes. Northwest. Yeah. He checked his bank account one day, as you do when there's not much in there.
Starting point is 01:18:37 Better have a look before you buy a bag of chips. Do you guys treat the banking app and your bank balance a little bit like the fridge and opening it and hoping there's food appeared? Yes. Oh oh my god yeah i've done that my whole working life like yeah i wonder if my agents just put some bonus money in there no oh because you you because you do freelance jobs freelance jobs sometimes i'm like but i invoice for that you know like there's never any yeah right and so it kind of is randomly put in. Then you see the balance and you're like, what? Refresh? No.
Starting point is 01:19:07 Well, he was doing that, looked it up, and in his account was $58 million Australian dollars of someone else's money. $58 million! So this is a bank error in his favor. But, I mean, you're never getting away with that. No. It would soon be noticed it was missing.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yeah. An amount that much. Nobody misplaces. Like, you know, you might get a $100 bank error in your favor. Yeah. And pretend you didn't see it. Yeah. But you can't not pretend that you saw.
Starting point is 01:19:43 $58 million. Yeah. So his girlfriend took to Twitter and tweeted, see it. But you can't not pretend that you saw. $58 million. So his girlfriend took to Twitter and tweeted my boyfriend woke up with $58 million of someone else's money in his bank account this morning and rather than take the money and run, he opted to call the bank and tell them of the error.
Starting point is 01:19:56 We could be living on our own island right now. You'll never escape the bank. I mean, this happened here in New Zealand, didn't it? They went on the run. Westpac accidentally, how much was that? There was a five or six million? I think it was like 10 million. And there was a Sunday Night Theater about it.
Starting point is 01:20:11 There was a TV drama about it, and they left the country, didn't they? Yeah. Yeah. Am I right in thinking with the Westpac one, they never got some of it back? There was a large bid outstanding? Yeah. Yeah. Well was a large bid outstanding. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's their fault.
Starting point is 01:20:27 That's their fault for giving it to you in the first place. Isn't it? Making a mistake and giving you all that money. $58 million. You're never going to get away
Starting point is 01:20:35 from the bank, though. No. They'll chase you to the end of the earth for that money. They love money. But the thing is, they didn't give him anything
Starting point is 01:20:40 for the deed. You'd think they'd give him, I don't know, if I rang him and I was like, hey, there's $58 million in my account. Oh my gosh, that's a huge error. Thank you for letting us know. I'd be like, well, how about an interest-free mortgage for like ever? Yeah. That's going to be way less. And I could have just made this
Starting point is 01:20:56 a headache for you guys. I could have taken it out. You have to chase me. I run. I'm not a runner. I could have moved to a different country, changed my identity, dyed my hair. You would have spent millions of dollars tracking me down. Yeah. Or I've rung you as soon as I've moved to a different country, changed my identity, dyed my hair. You would have spent millions of dollars tracking me down. Yeah. Or I've rung you as soon as I've noticed. How about an interest rate mortgage? Well, I always think there should be a little reward.
Starting point is 01:21:14 I think sometimes if you find money on the street and you hand it in, don't you get like a little... If it's not... So you take it, if you find something, you take it to the cops and then... It's not claimed. If it's not claimed within three months, unless it's like proceeds of crime money, like if it was money from a gang or something.
Starting point is 01:21:33 And you can tell because cocaine money always has to have written on it. If it's bundled up on the rubber band, you have to have... Drug money. This money was from cocaine. Coke money from selling coke. Well, he didn't get a reward for his good act of service, but I want to know when you did. When did you do a,
Starting point is 01:21:48 when you were a good Samaritan, when you were a good Samaritan, did you get a reward? And it paid off. And it paid off. Yeah. I tried to give somebody a reward once and she wouldn't have it.
Starting point is 01:21:58 What did she do for you? Well, this is when a friend and I, this is a while ago, old producer James, when we were in America, we had one of those automatic, you know, those boots that close? Yeah. It opened. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:11 Somebody didn't shut the boot. I don't think it was me. I'm saying James. And our bags like fell out. What? Some of our bags, we didn't notice. And then we like saw the boot was open. We were like, oh, our bags are gone.
Starting point is 01:22:24 And then we went back, but somebody had picked them up and taken them to the local police station. Yeah, I love that. And so we were like, phew. I was like, oh, can I give you something? She's like, no. Oh. Nothing. And I was like
Starting point is 01:22:39 stoked. Was she a woman of the cloth? Yeah, yeah, she was. That was just another little stamp in her ticket to get into heaven. Yeah, I think that's right. I think her reward was getting into heaven. Right. And my reward was not having to give her money, which was great. Because, you know, you're on holiday.
Starting point is 01:22:54 Every dollar counts. Every dollar counts. We want to know if this has happened to you. If you've done something good and you have reaped the rewards. Yeah, maybe you just didn't want a reward, but they were like, no, I insist. Here's $1,000. Please, maybe you just didn't want a reward, but they were like, no, I insist. Here's $1,000. Please, no, don't. It's like when someone offers to pay for the meal or something,
Starting point is 01:23:10 and you're like, no. I couldn't. No, no, are you sure? It's always are you sure first. You do a couple of no's, then are you sure? Oh, that's so nice. Thank you. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:23:20 No, no, no. Are you sure? We can at least, no, let's split. Yeah, that's it. And then I'll get the next one. I'll get the next one. No, no. Are you sure?
Starting point is 01:23:32 So it's a bit like that when they offer a reward. You say no, but then you accept, right? You say no while your hand's reaching out to grab the reward. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No way. Okay, thanks. Hand it over, hand it over, hand it over. All right, so when have you done a nice act?
Starting point is 01:23:45 You've found something. A good Samaritan. And you've got a reward for it. Maybe a bank area in your favour did give you a small reward. A little slice of that big pie. Or finding something and handing it in. Maybe you got to keep it at the end of it. We want to know when you got a reward for being a good Samaritan,
Starting point is 01:24:00 doing a good deed. I don't seek reward when I do all my good deeds. I try to do at least ten a day. Right. But I don't like to bring it up. I'm embarrassed. I don't want to show off. I know you are, but why don't you tell us about the ten yesterday? Yesterday, boy oh boy.
Starting point is 01:24:16 All sorts. So much, by the sounds. I did. This is the whole thing. It's selfless. I know you'd love to do that. We don't have the time right now. Thank you, Vaughn.
Starting point is 01:24:28 And we don't. We don't have the time to delve deep into Hayley, let alone mine. And I don't need the recognition. Oh, yours as well. Wow. All their selfless deeds. The show went till lunchtime.
Starting point is 01:24:38 Maybe we could like take the top off it, but I doubt we're going to be able to finish the whole thing. No, no time. No. Mel, when did you get a reward for being a good Samaritan? So I was walking to school one day and I found a cell phone in the park. Okay. So I answered it and they had lost it.
Starting point is 01:24:57 So I let them know that they could pick it up from the school office. Okay. And they left me a movie voucher. Oh, that's nice. A movie voucher. Yeah. How expensive would the phone have been? Oh, this is probably going back like 10 years now.
Starting point is 01:25:16 Oh, right. Yeah. Like a little Nokia or something. Yeah, right. Classic Nokia. You think about if you lose like a high-end like cell phone now, that could be like one to two grand's worth of loss. So, you know, giving someone $100.
Starting point is 01:25:35 Do you know what you are, Melanie? You're a hero. You are. Oh, I'd like to think so. You're a hero. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks, guys.

Starting point is 01:25:58 They paid for them. Bingo. We had a really nice dinner with them. They were actually really lovely. And at the end, we went up to pay and the guy said, oh, no, your meals have all been paid for. God, I love that. That's nice. And we called up to them.
Starting point is 01:26:13 We said, thank you. And they said, no, thank you for letting us sit with you and having such a lovely dinner. Oh, friends for life. That is nice. That's nice, isn't it?

Starting point is 01:26:43 Seamless. We got an $80,000 bank error in our favour. We rang them and let them know our reward was getting our account frozen for a week while they investigated the error that they caused. And then we weren't able to pay our mortgage to them and they stung us with fees because our account was frozen by them. What? A-holes.
Starting point is 01:27:05 Banks are a-holes, hey. I'm beginning to think they're not in it for us. Tell them to email Pippa Wetzel. Yeah, well, maybe it all got solved later on, but what a, what a, add the admin event. Well, no, but did they solve it? Sounds like. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:27:15 It's so, I would have, I would have picketed outside the branch. Yeah, same. I would have thrown it. Good luck a branch being opened. Found a lady's wallet. It was full of cash. I was a poor uni student. I must admit, there was a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other.
Starting point is 01:27:34 But I managed to track her down and she came to collect it. She bought us a week's worth of groceries, treats, wine, and wouldn't take no for an answer. That's nice. We lived like queens that week. I love that. That's so nice. We lived like queens. week. I love that. That's so nice. We lived like queens.
Starting point is 01:27:45 When I was 10, I was doing my paper run and I came across an old lady whose mobility scooter had putted out in the middle of the road. I pushed her all the way home. And when we got there... I'm the mobility scooter. It's just funny just imagining a kid like... Because you know when they run out, they're like...
Starting point is 01:28:04 They're really resistant. But please tell me like she went inside and got him a hanky or something. A king-sized block of chocolate and then she started leaving chocolate bars in the litter box
