Bin Hezen's five. This show, to my right, is two packets of just hearty oats. Not a cereal. Not a cereal. Not a cereal. Oats are oats. And two kiwi fruits. Yeah. Untouched.

Not eaten. Yeah. Because what did you make me eat? I... Okay, you ate... A bag of twisties. About half a bag of twisties. I ate the other half.

Yeah, but you... But I didn't make... I don't remember at any stage holding a gun to your head saying... What are you doing? Eat these fucking twisties. I fucking said two weeks ago that I stage holding a gun to your head saying, eat these fucking twisties. I fucking said two weeks ago that I was on a journey to health. And you, you were on a journey to health not so long ago.

Yeah, I'm still on a journey-ish to health. No, but you're on a journey to derail my entire life, to derail my journey. You keep coming up and like shoving bags of chips in front of me. And now we're going to the Fed. We're going to go get get cinnamon scrolls because what am i supposed to say when you say oh hey like should we go after the show and go get a cinnamon scroll from my favorite place to eat in auckland yeah and and what am i going to say no well you could say no i wouldn't be offended i mean we can just go another time let's just. Let's just go another time. You are derailing me.

You are worse than Aaron. Producer Jared, would you say that I'm derailing Hayley or she's a self-derailer? Jared, would you say I'm a self-derailer or she is? I'd say you're both as bad as each other. No, that's not true. That's not true. I declared.

I publicly declared. I brought in my kiwi fruit, Jared. Because Fletch a while ago said, I'm on a journey to health. Yes. And then Hayley followed up with, but it's Barn Me Monday. Yeah, you do.

You say that a lot. And then the next day you said, but it's a Barn Me Tuesday. And then the day after that you were like, yeah, but there's lollygag at this cafe. Do you know what? Okay. But you have, I will give you this.

You have more mental strength. When you're on a journey to health, and I say it's Bunme Monday, it's Bunme Tuesday, it's Bunme Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, you still haven't had a Bunme. I know. Whereas Vaughan and I, we were Bunmeing, it was Bunme week. Yeah, yeah. Whereas when you say to me, let's go get a cinnamon scroll,

let's eat this bag of chips every day this week, I don't have that strength and you've derailed me. Yeah, but is that my fault that you don't have the strength? It is your fault. Okay, right. You need to stop derailing me. I can't win this argument, can I? After our cinnamon scroll.

That's it. We're back on the journey to health next week. Can everyone just acknowledge that I'm on a journey to health and that commencing Monday I want no more bullshit offers. Anna, I'm looking at you. Oh, today feels like a – Do you know what we're doing on Tuesday? We go to the airport before we go to Dunedin for Bangers Bingo.

Christchurch was the worst. And then we could have a little bubbles at the airport, couldn't we, in the lounge? Bubbles are involved in a journey to health. Because it's great. Brioches, producer Anna, are not. Yummy, though. They are yum, though. God's sake. Thank you, Sam.

Well, it's money. But Elsa, he always remembers when it comes to the money. So up to $1,000 in one of these bags. If you can get through before 7, listen out for the activator. We did eat a lot of Burger Rings. I know, I had Burger Rings yesterday. And so I'm eyeing up the twisties today. I just picked up the twisties and was like, yeah, I could rock a twisty today.

So even if it's not picked, I will be opening this. Even though it says do not eat because it's got the prize money inside. But we eat them anyway. Yeah, we roll the dice, don't we? Yeah. All right, the activators, what you've got to be listening out for, it's going to play before seven.

Also, our grocery grab with the warehouse and our super fast conveyor belt. I'll tell you what, we've pepped it up. We've pepped it up. We're going to do that at 8.30. We're just pushing that because of the super important Friday Jams live announcement. So 8.30 to play that.

Next on the show. This is an amazing story and I actually don't know how she's done it. But an OnlyFans model has done something quite incredible in a short amount of time. Something that only the likes of Ryan Reynolds can pull off. Yeah. Or the super rich.

Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. So there is a playboy model in Santiago. Santiago? Chile. Chile. Beautiful, beautiful city.

Absolutely stunning. Me, not knowing what it is, and then being like, yeah, stunning. I've never been. I've never been. I've flown through it a couple of times. Oh, have you? And, like, you just go through it. The Andes, oh, it's beautiful.

I want to spend more time there. I'm sure you do. Well, she has lofty ambition. So she's a massive football fan. Yep. And so much so that she just had the plan to buy her favourite football club, O'Higgins FC. Right. Which is the club based in her home city of Rancagua.

Rancagua. Is this in Chile? It's just south of Santiago. Right, okay. Because when you said football club, I immediately thought England. Yeah, no, no, no, no. This is in Chile? It's just south of Santiago. Oh, right. Okay. Because when you said football club, I immediately thought England. Yeah. No, no, no, no. This is in Chile.

Right. So she was like, I want to buy it. Okay. I just fancy me a football club. I want to be the owner. And then so she has a very successful OnlyFans and she was like, I'm just going to see how much money I can raise. Okay.

So she put it out on her TikTok and Instagram and OnlyFans that she, this was her plan. She's like, I want to try to raise as much money as possible. It's $20 million. Okay. Like $20 million New Zealand dollars to buy the club. And she

raised in two weeks $12 million. $12.5 million. 12 and a half million. So she's nearly there. To buy this. Just by saying, hey, I really want my OnlyFans to go well because I want to buy this football club. So she just like upped the content and made it a little racier.

12 million dollars in two weeks. So she didn't start like, there wasn't a GoFundMe on the side. This was just buy my content. Yeah, buy my cute little pics and my knickers. That is wild. That's so much money.

I know. The board of the football club is like, I don't really think we want to be bought by her. Not because of the fact she's a Playboy model or an OnlyFans model, but because she doesn't know anything about of the fact she's a Playboy model or an OnlyFans model, but because like she doesn't know anything about running a football club. Yeah, yeah. But this is still

within her sights. This is exactly what she wants to spend that money on. If you're selling the club though, 20 million's 20 million. 20 million's 20 million. And also,

even if you don't get to buy the club, you've got 12 and a half million dollars. You know, like it's a win-win. I know. She gets the thing she wants. I wonder if there's like a thing though where she said that that's what she wants

to spend the money on so people were like, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, yeah, and then now she's just going to retire with $12 million. I know. Do I need an OnlyFans? That was everybody's first thought, right, is could I do this? But you hear these stories of like people making such amazing money. Yeah, I know. A couple of years ago, we spoke to the Australian girl on the Gold Coast

who's a supercar driver. And then she left supercar driving, only fans, bought like houses, owns them outright. I think she now is back into supercars and, you know, because she's just loaded. I have Renee Gracie. Yeah, that was her. That was her name.

I have bought nothing from social media income. I, yeah, my dormant Instagram, surprisingly. Well, maybe you should, I think you, I think it's such a flooded market, you've got to find your niche. I reckon it'll be my feet. It's the most highly requested. I mean, maybe, yeah, maybe. The most highly requested thing I get.

But do you think people are going to spend $4.99 a month on your feet? No, they're not that good. $2.99. You can have one of those people that has a free OnlyFans. Oh, no, You've defeated the purpose You hook them in and then you start charging Oh okay I'm going to have to pep up my content I reckon

Because I wouldn't mind $12 million in two weeks It would be absolutely nice People won't earn that in a lifetime No Two lifetimes, three lifetimes This is in Australia This is in Two lifetimes. Three lifetimes. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. This is in Australia. This is in, oh no, this is in America, I beg your pardon.

Okay. I beg your pardon. A little bit further away than Australia. Yes. This is crazy. She shared it on TikTok. Surprise, surprise. You've got to share everything on TikTok.

Yeah. A woman was going about her day and then she was like, time for a fresh tampon. As you do. As you do. Just go about your day. You know, your soul knows when it's time. So she went to the bathroom and there's a shortage of the tampons she usually buys. Quote unquote, I usually buy organic.

Okay. So she had, yeah, sure. Sure you do. Because I've heard in America this is a problem. Is it a problem here in New Zealand? Yeah. I don't know. I rock the undies.

I do the undies. Oh, okay, right. Oh, we've got to ditch tampons. Who's still rocking tampons these days? No. No, you've got to get the undies. You've got to get the undies. It's free.

You're just rocking around. All right, we'll talk later. Anyway, so she had a friend of hers worked at the Tampax factory and had given her a box of applicator tampons. Yeah. And then so she was like rummaging in the bag to get a fresh one and then all, apparently you can see through the packet and all Tampax applicators are purple. And she saw one that was like fluoro pink. And she was like, huh, maybe a new color. Okay, I'll go with that one. Yeah. You know, it's calling to me. Yeah. And she opened it was like, I wonder why it's different. And then she noticed that the shape of the actual tampon inside the applicator was different.

So she like pulled it out because you kind of got to like slide, it like slides out. Yeah. And then the thing comes out the top. And then she like just did that, not in her, but into her hands and was like, why is this so different? And then she opened it up and right in the middle was like a strip of metal.

Metal. Yeah. Okay. So just to explain to you, Fletch, that's not normal. That's not, well, I know that, but I would imagine

it shouldn't have shards of metal. It shouldn't have shards of metal in it. Yeah. She was like, what the hell is this? And because of the shape of the thing and the like solidity of the metal, like it was a perfect kind of rectangle

she was like is this a tracker is someone yeah gonna track me from the inside so she obviously like didn't use it and then um like put this on tiktok and kind of reached out to tampax and said like what's the deal guys why is there a tracker in my thing? And they were like, oh, then they responded to her and they said, oh my God, you know, we're so sorry. Please send it to us with the bit of metal and we'll get to the bottom of it. Yeah.

And like, you know, give you your money back, da, da, da, da. And they got it back. And what they believe it is, is that they do like a quality test and every now and then they'll, not every now and then, but they'll put one of these tampons, that's why it's a different colour, through a machine

to make sure that the quality testing machine is working and would detect that there's this metal. Ah, right, there's metal. Does that make sense? Right, yeah, yeah. So they would like make them a different colour, put it through the line

of tampies just going to your homes, just to make sure that the quality testing machine would pick it up. Okay, so what we can learn from this is that it doesn't pick it up. It doesn't. So what we learn from this is before you use a tampon, just make sure you unravel it. Just get to the... Just like unfold it all. Right, okay, yeah.

Just check. Check the middle. Yeah, then scrunch it back together. Wrap it back up. You might need to use some dental floss. Okay. Do you know what I mean?

No, don't do that. No, you might need to because you've got to re-compact it before you use it. So you get a bit of dental floss, wrap it around it, make it nice and tight again

and you should be all right. You're good to go. But don't use minty dental floss. You don't want to be tingling. Oh, no. You don't want to do that. Little bird. Play ZM's

Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, a supermarket in the UK has become the latest waitrose to introduce or to get rid of,

I should say, best before dates in a bid to tackle food waste. I've been reading this. What's the thinking behind? Well, the idea is that, like, what's the point of putting a best before date on a bag of potatoes?

Like, you know when they're green and they have roots. Yeah, when they're growing. Like, if you ever put onions or potatoes, you just left them in the pantry and they just start, like, sprouting. Garlic, onions, potatoes, kumara. They all get roots. Like unless your, or the veggie draws another example, unless it's turned to like a soup, a mushy

dark soup. I eat my fair share of limp carrots, limp broccoli. Well, you can cut up a limp carrot, put it in a stir fry. You're not going to know the difference, are you? It's limp anyway. Yeah. Some people have a real issue with it because they see it's limp and they're like, well, that's it.

I can't eat it. May I recommend as a indoor plant enthusiast? Yeah. If you have a kumara that has gone rooty, put it in a jar and put water over it and it actually grows the coolest kumara plant. You're not going to get kumara, but it's like this cool kind of viney. Oh, right. Viney green plant.

That you can have in your house. Yeah, we have one for ages and you just leave it in water. And then people are like, what's that plant? And you're like, it's a kumara in the jar. It's my sprouty kumara. Yeah, yeah. Well, around, they reckon 70% of food waste in the UK alone happens at home. And so this is an idea where 88 million tonnes of food is chucked away each year.

So it's off. Yeah, because it's off. And another study as well found that dates in America, food labelling, because you know there's like best before, there's expired, but then there's also packed on, born on, however they word it. Born on? Yeah.

I think that's like a... This cow was born on Sunday. Yeah. This steak was born on... Oh God, I don't want to know it's birthday. But there's so much confusion around all the different dates, like best before, you can still eat. Expired, you probably shouldn't.

Yeah, but that, yeah. But even then expired. Best before. Yeah. Fresh AF. They reckon that because of the confusion around the labelling, around 20% of food waste is estimated in the US to be $161 billion a year. Don't think about it.

Don't think about it. I mean, we need to think about it. I mean, we do because the planet is dying and we don't have enough food, but you know. When my brother first moved to Melbourne, there was such a huge dumpster diving kind of community. Did he dumpster dive? Yeah, man. And I ate some of it. It was amazing.

I mean, see, I'd eat stuff in a packet from a dumpster. Yeah. From the supermarket. They would go out the back of their local, is it Coles? Yeah. And there's a big like skip bin and because they can't sell

expired food or they can't sell something after it's best buy, it all just goes packet and all into the thing. And if you're doing it regularly they are doing it regularly so you can kind of get it that day and be like, well, it's best before I can still eat it. He'd get like meat,

veggies, packets of things, like unbelievable amounts of food. And it's all absolutely fine. It's all totally fine. And you ate it? Yeah, man. And you're fine? Yep. I live to tell. I mean, I don't think he still comes to diving. Right, I love a reduced to clear. I mean, I don't think he still comes to diving. Right.

I love a reduced to clear. I mean, that's the meat they're about to throw out, isn't it? Or what do they call like short stock or something, you know, like that's going to expire tomorrow. So basically you've got to buy it and eat it tonight. And then what's the difference of a day or two? It's going to be fine. You always say that.

What's the difference between a day or two? But there is a day where it's okay. And then suddenly it's not to be fine. You always say that, what's the difference between a day or two? But there is a day where it's okay and then suddenly it's not okay. Yeah. You know when you rip open a chicken breast and you're like, you know. That's not, yeah, I can't eat that. I can't eat that.

That's tinged with green. Everybody wants to be my enemy. Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM. Scientistsletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. Scientists have shocked the world. Scientists at the University of Yale. They have brought back a dead pig's heart to life. Dead organ, dead pig's organs.

Dead pig organs. Dead pig organs. Dead pig organs. In the hope of achieving what for humanity? So I was a bit shocked at first and I was like, why would you even think about this? Like, we don't need to bring granddad back 12 years later. He's not going to be looking great. I reckon he's a bit worse for wear.

There'll be worms coming out. Yeah. Rough as guts. There'll be worms coming out? Yeah. Rough as guts. There'll be rough as guts. So the idea could revolutionise transplants. Oh, yeah, because who was it? Was it a lung or a heart? And a human had a pig's organ.

Yeah, so the idea is if there is a transplant or a donor, it's got to be done super quick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so, because the organ obviously can't die because they deteriorate. So the idea is this would give doctors more time to harvest organs and could also be used to treat seriously injured patients in the future. So they're going to translate this to humans? Or we just go with the pig stuff?

Well, you would imagine that's where it's going, yeah. Because the guy who had the pig organ died. He died, yeah. Didn't go well. So this is just, yeah, basically reversing dead organs and making them healthy again. As you say, if you can... Organs keeps us alive. Yeah.

Organs keep us alive. So if you could bring back... If you, like, could simplify the way that you bring back organs and theoretically you could bring them all back. But could you rejuvenate like, I mean, I don't know, if you've been gone a long time, I can't imagine they're just going to be bringing back like.

I reckon Freddie Mercury's looking a bit rough. But that's who I'd go for a Freddie. You'd bring back a Freddie, you'd bring back some celebrities. Yeah, let's get Elvis and Kurt Cobain on that train. I mean, were they cremated? It would be my first question. I think you'll have some trouble there.

I don't know if the technology's that great. I think you might have a little bit of an issue putting those back together. So they had, and this is quite horrible to say, but they had a healthy pig and they forced a cardiac arrest and the pig died. An hour later, they hooked the dead pig up to a machine called Organ X, where it pumps fluid containing 13 different compounds around the pig's body.

And it brought it back. Yeah. Just as well. Because when you die, obviously, immediately things back to life. It brought it back, yeah. Just as well because you killed it back. Yeah, when you die, obviously, immediately things start breaking down. That's why you need to... I was reading something recently that said,

you know how when you get your license, it says donor or not donor? Apparently that's not enough because sometimes they still have to get consent from your family. So I was reading something recently that was saying like, you've got to get you. I mean, you can put it in your will, but even just tell your loved ones if you want to be an organ donor. Because if you died, rather than going to your license and being like, well, she said that when she was 16.

You know, like, does she stand by it? And then your parents are like, we don't want our little Haley and someone else. Yeah, totally. So you need to tell your parents or your loved ones and stuff whether you want to be an organ donor. Are you an organ donor? I am, yes. Me too. I mean, I don't know if you want my post-COVID lungs or whatever the hell's going on in here.

I don't want them. I don't know if anyone needs what's going on in here after COVID. But they say it is far away from being used in humans. Very far away. Because there's a lot of bioethics about this as well. Yes, of course. But, I mean, who knows? By the time we're 80, we might be able to hook up to the X,

whatever it's called, machine 2000. X-Organ. X-Organ 2000. Pop back to life. Yeah, feel 21 again. I don't know if I want to. I'm going to run out of KiwiSaver by the time I'm at least 80. We don't need to live longer.

We don't need to live any longer. Kelly Clarkson is a wise woman. Because she once said, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. And I believe she came up with that. I think she did invent that saying. I believe that's an original lyric there. Sure, yeah.

And she is very, very true. So we all know that, well, I don't know if I know this, but that a breakup is an awful thing to go through. Yes. I don't really have any breakups. I had one breakup when I was a teenager, maybe like a couple kind of early on,

but not like a major one. That is TBC. You're not saying it will never happen. No, I'm just going to be honest with the stats. But new research indicates that people, obviously they feel like extreme loss of control in their life following a split. And usually

and as you say, time heals all. I don't know if that's a Kelly Clarkson quote. It should be. Time heals all. But it is a fleeting feeling and every day it gets better and better. As we know, with any kind of like stressful or traumatic event. But at the time, you don't think that, do you? You're just like, this is it.

My life is over. My life is over. The world sucks. It is really, it is really it. After that time passes and it starts to get a little bit better and better, researchers found that not only do they regain that sense of control, but it comes back twofold. They better it. Oh, wow.

Okay. That feeling of control. So when Kelly Clarkson sat there going, what can be the lyric? And she said, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Yeah. She was quite right.

She really hit the nail on the head there. Yes. Could you imagine being a researcher and having to talk to people? Because I'm imagining they were like,

hey, who's going through a breakup? We'd love to ask you a series of questions. So they did this at a university in Potsdam, Germany. Journey, Germany.

Germany? Germany. And they found that people who split from their partners felt less in control of their lives in the year following the separation. But after that first year,

the sense of control was recovered and they felt even more in control than they ever did before. They also, in this study, studied people who had lost their partner to Jesus, to death. To death, right, okay. also in this study studied people who had lost their partner to Jesus, to death.

To death, right, okay. And they as well, I don't think the pain ever goes away, but they typically feel a stronger sense of control post-loss. And it comes a year later. A year later. And I'm guessing that could be earlier or later for some people as well.

Absolutely. Did you like them that much? You know, that would factor in. That would factor in. Yeah, true, true. So, yeah, what they did is they got all these people that had lost their partners somehow to another person. They had a split. They died. Yep.

And they basically sort of measured how they had been feeling before that and then how they were feeling a year later. They came back and they were like, this is the proof, basically. Yeah, right. That they came back so much stronger. But, I mean, if you, say, for example, your friend messages and she's like, come around, I've just had a breakup. And you go around and you're like, look, there's a recent study

that shows that in a year, you will be absolutely fine. In fact, you will be twofold stronger. Is this how you engage with your friends? Oh, James. Look, James, there was a recent study shows. I mean, you don't want to hear that if you've just broken up with someone, right?

No, no, you want to kind of like lean into the idea that life is over and you've got to wallow in it right? No, no, you want to kind of like lean into the idea that life is over and you've got to wallow in it for a bit. Yeah. When do you bring up the Germany study? You don't. You don't. You're just like you'll be better, mate, in a year. You've got to warm it up, Fletch. You've got to warm it up. Not a recent study

conducted by the University of Potsdam in Germany found that in a year's time, and they're like, a year! In a year's time, never fear. You'll be two-fold stronger. You'll be two-fold stronger than you were before this event happened. And then just press play on the Kelly Clarkson song. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

That's great friendship. For God's sake, Fletch. That's being there for your friend. Pour them a wine and give them a cuddle. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, I mean, I feel like there's a bit of a theme with making money online. You can do it. You can do it.

If you're listening and you're thinking, God, I've got to make a bit of cash, try putting your life online. But this woman makes a lot of money. So I think it works out to be about $2,000, $3,000 New Zealand dollars a month. But this is a side hustle. Okay. So she has a normal job? She has a...

Like an office job? Or you wouldn't need a normal job if you're earning... How much did you say? $3,000 a month. Okay, yeah. Yeah, you probably need a little bit. But that's still good for a side hustle. No, she works primarily in marketing.

She has a degree in architecture and civil engineering. Oh, wow. Okay. But on the side to make her what she calls fun money or like treat money, she takes videos of herself chewing gum and blowing bubbles. Is this a sexual thing for some people? Sometimes. Is she hot? Um.

Well, no, because I'm just thinking that could be part of it. Like, you know, the sexy. Yeah, well, she said that, like, she said that chewing gum and bubble blowing is a form of fetish that caters to a wide audience online. Okay, right. But she's kind of found her little niche,

like, of fans that love her content. Remember we talked about my friend in Sydney, that guy offered him money to see him blowing up balloons because he's a lunar. I'm like, what are the things that I enjoy doing that I could just film myself doing and make money? Sorry, that sentence sounded pretty overt. I mean, you've talked about your feet.

You've got a, you're on the celebrity wiki feet, aren't you? I am. Somebody uploaded your feet. That's too obvious. Right. What about eating golden kiwi fruits? But do it like sensually. Okay, that's not, I don't know.

I don't know if I'd pay for that. I don't know. Watch me watching TV. But what I like about this, and it's the same with, and we talked about the girl earlier that wants to buy a football club in South America and raise $12 million on OnlyFans. You're literally doing very little. Very little.

I mean, OnlyFans, you've still got to make videos and stuff, but it's very, you can sit down doing it. Well, it is a business though, because she self-invests. So she gets money from the people and some of that money has to go back into buying the gum. Into the gum, yeah. Because sometimes upon request and for a little extra dosh, she'll chew up to 30 pieces of chewing gum at once

and blow bubbles twice the size of her head. And then not only does she film her doing this, but she does screenshots of the videos as well and can send them to people. Right, so there'd be a little bit of admin in that, but it's still like $3,000 a month. Yeah, I don't know that you'd need like send them to people. Right. So there'd be a little bit of admin in that, but it's still like 3000 a month. Yeah. I don't know that you'd need like a PA.

No. You know, to like manage this. Yeah. But yeah, good for her. She is making money in a really easy way. And this is what we wanted to ask this morning is what is the easiest way that

you've made money? Just doing something that honestly you shouldn't get paid for. Yeah. But you did and you made money. Just doing something that honestly you shouldn't get paid for. Yeah. But you did and you made money from it. It's like I always think about people that write like one song. I know. You know, like that's hard to do, right? And not everybody can do it

but you write one song or even like a jingle. A jingle and then it's done, right? You've done. You're done. You're done. And then you make money while you sleep. Yeah, you're basically just what is it called? Passive income. Yeah. Or like you write one

book. You write one book, which is hard. That's an effort to write a book, but then you make money while you sleep. If it sells well. It stands the test of time. Yeah. Like the secret. So I mean I don't know because most of us go to work, do the nine to five or do the job. Don't lie.

We're in this category. We play songs and talk. Hit a button and then hit another one. And we go. I mean, it's certainly on the easier side of. It's not rocket science. It's not rocket science. No.

No, we're looking for those little things. Like maybe you took me, you know, maybe you are a foot picture person. Yeah. Or maybe you take videos of yourself scrubbing the shower. And people just love it. Like people with cleaning fetishes? I mean, how amazing is it to watch, like, water blasting

driveways? Yeah. Or people mowing lawns? Yeah. Okay, well, I don't know, Matt, is there an easy way? What's the easiest way you've made money? We want to talk now about the easiest way that you've made money. Yes. Because a woman is making $3,000 New Zealand dollars a month blowing chewing gum bubbles. Yes. For people online.

And I don't know, some of them are getting off on it or maybe they like her face or her, I don't know, the way she blows the bubble. Yeah, there's a sexy side to it. Yeah. But in terms of her output, she doesn't have to do anything more than blow these bubbles. It's funny you say $3,000 a month as a side hustle. Someone messaged in

saying $3,000 a month as a side hustle is just as much as a beginning teacher's salary. Yeah. Just pack it in and blow bubbles. Stop educating our youth. Stop trying to sort of brighten the future of our children and blow some bubbles online. Yeah, exactly.

Tabby joins us. Good morning, Tabby. Good morning. How's it going? Good. What's the easiest way you've made money? So back in the day, you know those Facebook like pages? Yes. I've had a couple hundred likes. So I made one and I totally forgot about it until about two,

three years later I got this, like, random notification. So I clicked on it, and I was like, oh, my God, like, it's got 1.2 million likes. So I was like, okay, so I'm admin of this group. And I didn't realize at the time, I was like 14, how much kind of advertising marketing potential it had. And so I checked the inbox of this page and I had like hundreds of messages

like, will you sell it to me, all the stuff. So there I was like 14, I'm like $600 sounds like a great idea. So I sold it to this guy in like Utah in America and bought my very first iPhone, but now I know the worth and I wish I'd never sold it.

No, no, don't think about it too much. Oh, no, Tabby, how much was it worth? How much should you have sold it for? Oh, I have no idea, but I don't know, maybe a couple, I don't know, tens of thousands, I don't know, 1.2 million people across the world. Like, the advertising potential, you know? So, looking at stuff, I've got my life in.

I always hated it when pages sold. Like, do you remember when Vic Uni deals? What was that Facebook page? That sold, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, and everyone was a bit like, oh, you can't do that. You can't do that. I didn't consent to that.

You didn't, but then... But it's so, I mean, I get it. Yeah. It's all about the likes these days. Tabby, thanks. You're cool. I believe producer Anna made some easy money. This was a side hustle?

Yes, it was in uni holidays. I saw on good old student job search. Oh, classic. Classics for some weird cash making opportunities. I was a fill-in clown at a Muslim children's festival. A fill-in clown? Yeah. What's a fill-in clown?

Their normal clown dropped out. Yep. And so, but they had the um and they just said like can you come and wear the suit for like four hours and i was like yep tickety-boo and um it was like an inflatable suit um oh okay yeah it was great and you made it in four hours 120 dollars meal. And you just walk around just like, hello. Yep. $2 shop bubbles. What was your clown voice? Hello.

Yeah, you got it right. You got it right. I got it right. That was the clown voice. Amazing. Easy money. Some messages in. So many.

I get paid $33 an hour. What's the minimum wage these days? $22? $21. Something like that. I get paid $33 an hour. This is more the minimum wage these days? Twenty-two? Twenty-one? Something like that? I get paid $33 an hour. This is more than minimum wage. Yeah.

To sit outside a shop and count people walking past. What? No more details? Do they get a clicker? So it's $21.20. So that's $33 and they just sit there going,

boof, that's a person. Can't they get a machine to do that? I know. Yesterday I typed out an email for my boss. no more than 30 words. He gave me $20 cash to do it. Good on you, Jared.

Easy. Jetski says, lucky member draw at a fishing club. $1,700 for being present. I mean, that's winning a prize, isn't it? Yeah, that's winning a prize. One time I babysat a family who paid me $50 an hour cash. I was 16 and back then minimum wage was $14. That's good money.

The easiest way I've made money, I got married. Someone did message in saying the easiest way I've made money is I did a ram raid. Don't you bloody ram raid. I used to live stream myself playing computer games. I mean, that's huge Heaps of money out of that I dropped an intoxicated guy Who randomly saw me and asked for a ride

Off to an address He was offering $500 But I got a bit scared in case I got kidnapped Or they wanted to sell me meth So I only dropped him 4 minutes up the road 4 minute drive he gave me $200 So I only dropped him four minutes up the road, four minute drive, he gave me 200 bucks. Wait, you still had him in the car? Just do the full 500.

Yeah. Easiest way I've made money was seeing a sugar daddy. Oh, okay. He didn't want anything physical, just wanted my company for dates, dinner, et cetera, four to $500 each time. Oh, this is good. The easiest way I've made money was when I was

younger. My uncle used to pay me to go to the store to get him a beer. Bear in mind, I was roughly 12. I used to walk to the fridge, grab a beer, come back, and he'd give me 50 bucks. Okay, drunk uncle sounds great. This is a great... Oh, there's some illegal stuff on here.

My husband sold our old iPhone on Facebook for $900. Yeah. He ended up being scammed and the phone was stolen with no payment. Yeah. So they've lost money. Yeah. We claimed insurance on it and because they no longer make that model, they had to pay us out the latest model, which was $1,900.

Oh, wow. So that was the easiest way they made money. Bloody easy. Technically, is that bad what they've done? No. Were they claiming it was stolen? It was. It was stolen. That's legit then, isn't it? My work was

God, people are hustlers. My work was throwing out a bunch of filing cabinets and I asked if I could sell them instead. So they just gave them to me. I sold all of them for just under a grand. They pick up only from the office. Too easy. Oh my God. So literally on work time you do the listing. Yeah. And then pick up

from work. Yeah. Oh my God. That's genius. So many people saying like, dude babysitting when they were young. Because like parents would just come back and be like, here's a $100. And they're drunk. Yeah. They're like, thanks for taking off my kids. Yeah. God, good hustling out there, guys.

Time every Friday. I'm like, we've got to re-record that. I'm pitchy at the end there, Jared. We can all hear it. I haven't had a drama training, so I wouldn't know what pitchy sounds like. Final Rankings. That's what it sounds like. Okay, well, yeah, do better next time. You've got a degree.

You should have done better from the outset. I do, I do. I know, I know. I'm ashamed. Friday Rankings, Final Rankings., do better next time. You've got a degree. You should have done better from the outset. I do, I do. I know, I know. I'm ashamed. Friday rankings, final rankings. We do it every Friday. It's normally about food. It's always about food.

We rank a subject today. It's items at the Chinese takeaways or buffet. Yeah, and I think we're separating the fish and chip side because I love a Chinese takeaways that does a fish and chip and a Chinese because you can get like wontons, fried rice and some chips. Yeah, that's great stuff. But we're just focusing on the Chinese dishes.

Okay, I'm going to hit you. I'm thinking I'm going to go my top three out the gate. It's got to be lemon chicken, sweet and sour pork. Lemon chicken. Are you five? Lemon chicken. What are you making?

Am I five? Do you guys like are you making? Am I five? Do you guys like... Who doesn't love lemon chicken? It's great. It's great. It's lemon and chicken. Or honey chicken. Oh, my God.

To any of our Chinese listeners, I'm so sorry. Okay, sweet and sour pork. Hang on. Lemon chicken. This is lemon chicken? I don't think I've ever tried it. Because it's trash. It is not. Thank you, Jared.

Yeah, but Jared has a V and a pie and twisties for breakfast. Yeah, Carween, have you tried lemon tofu? They actually do a vegetarian chicken version, and I quite like that. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. So, the only person backing you up is the guy who has a V for breakfast

and the girl who's a vegetarian so actually can't have lemon chicken. You're out of your damn mind. My third. So the only person backing you up is the guy who has a V for breakfast and the girl who's a vegetarian so actually can't have lemon chicken. You're out of your damn mind. My third one. I could go for, I mean, could a black bean? Yeah, a black bean. A delicious black bean. Or an oyster sauce. Yes.

An oyster sauce stir fry. Yeah. But then you've also got your spring rolls. You've got your wontons. You've got your chow mein. You've got a combination fried rice. Oh, you can't. That's Anna.

It's got like the classic frozen veg and egg. Yeah, and sometimes meat as well. You can get some meat in there. It's hashtag gains as well. That's a protein hat. Okay, maybe I'd forgotten about the egg foo yong. I might go sweet and sour pork, lemon chicken, egg foo yong. Yeah.

And then a combination fried rice. I will forgive you your lemon chicken. I'm going... Oh, I don't know, because I love a chicken chow mein. Wantons. Wantons. No. They're always too...

Okay, I'm going wantons. Number one, wantons, sweet and sour sauce. I could have thousands of them. Thousands of them. Okay. Wantons with sweet and sour sauce. I could have thousands of them. Thousands of them. Okay. Wontons with sweet and sour sauce. I'm going... I do love a fried...

I'm really thinking about this. Have we missed any producers? Have we missed any? I mean, we've missed... I mean, they've got thousands of dishes. A satay-based dish. Yay!

You're talking Thai! You're talking Thai, Gerrit! We're in China right now. We said Chinese takeaways. I'm looking at a menu in front of me and there is satay on it. Tell them they're wrong. Because they're catering for the Pakiars who go to the Chinese takeaway and get that. Sweet and sour, sweet and sour.

Also, if we were thinking about when we went to the, what's the place where they, the trolleys? Yum Cha. Yum Cha. Yum Cha. Yeah. You are so white right now. What's the place with the trolleys? What about a steamed bun, the pork buns?

Number three, I'm going to hit, I'm going combination fried rice. A fine choice. Not enough meat in that. A fine choice. Not enough meat. I'm all about the carbs. Yeah. Very carb heavy. I'm carb loading at the moment. Yeah. You in that. A fine choice. Not enough meat. I'm all about the carbs. Yeah.

Very carb heavy. I'm carb loading at the moment. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. I think we're on board. So are we saying we don't have a winner? We don't have a winner.

Well, Anna's on board with me, so I think the winner is... Combination fried rice. Yes. Especially when you team it up With another meat dish Because then you've got The rice base When you have a Sweet and sour sauce

On a combination Fried rice That is heaven Or a sweet and sour pork With a combination Fried rice And you get the sauce Of the pork

And then a crispy Wonton on top Oh baby That's the winner Am I already Doing pick up now? Play ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley

This is such an interesting read. Let's get into it. So, I'll start at the top. So, there's a British footballer called Chloe Kelly. Yeah. And they won the big Euro football thing. Cup. Yes.

It would have been a cup. Yeah. Okay. So, the Euros. The Euros final. Please thing. Cup. Yes. It would have been a cup. Yeah. Okay. So the Euros, the Euros final. Please forgive my ignorance. I'm not a football follower. Yep. You're a marching girl and that's your knowledge of sport ends.

That's my sport. So when she won, as the male players do, she did a run and she whipped off her top and was running in her sports bra. Right. Just as like a celebration and that was it. There was no huge thing about it. But then it's kind of sparked this huge debate,

not a debate around whether or not she can do that. Of course she can, she's wearing a sports bra. But around boobs and sport in general. And then all these stories are kind of collated in this article about boobs, bras and sport. Yeah. And like it's sort of something that people hadn't really thought about. Oh, it's kind of seen as a taboo subject because, you know, boobs.

Yeah. Dirty things in the eyes of the world, you know, they're still going to be hidden away. Around how breasts impact sport and sportswomen in their, you know, in their athletic abilities. And so people were like, it's amazing that she's like showing that they're even wearing a bra under there because we just sort of pretend like we don't know what's happening. Yeah, for sure.

But actually there's a whole lot of like science and thought that goes into the kind of bras that sports people have to wear to support their boobies. And then this was showing that research has found that your breasts can move up to 15 centimetres during exercise. That's a lot. That's a lot. Up and down.

Yeah. Yeah. And in doing so, not only, God, does it hurt. And this is coming from a, I've got quite a small chest. And I know that like when they're not supported and you're exercising, it really hurts. Not only that, but you can lose up to four centimetres in stride length if you're running a marathon.

Oh, wow. They weigh you down. They weigh you down. They literally weigh you down like you go to take your leap and gravity's like nope no and and actually impacts your whole performance basically right and then other athletes were chiming in because obviously it's the commonwealth games at the moment with lots of female sports at the games um at talking about um it's trying to be a more vocalized thing, like in the changing rooms,

being like, we need to talk about what kind of bras we're wearing, because it's not, you can't just like chuck on a bra. It's actually going to impact our game. There was the Romanian tennis player, Simona Halep, and she was in the semifinals at Wimbledon and she was quite public and she underwent a breast reduction surgery because she really wanted to be a successful tennis player. And they were just getting in the way. Yeah she had double D's and she got them reduced down to a C to improve her performance. I mean that's not like cheating that's just sort of like, I don't know, just getting a roadblock out of your way.

And then it was going on to say that, like, this is a massive thing, like more teenage girls than ever at the moment are dropping out of sport and they are citing their boobs as the fourth biggest obstacle. Right. So, like, I don't know, money, you know, whatever the other obstacles are. But the whole thing of, like, trying to contain these wonderful, wonderful things. But during sports. And then there was a stat that said that 46% of women report that,

say that their breasts are an obstacle and just in life. In life. Yeah. And there's, I mean, what can you do about it? Get a really good bra get it right okay basically like this like you can't just sort of go to I won't I won't name and shame but like I would I would terrible sports bras at the gym for like cheap cheap shops right you've got to go and like actually get fitted for something that will strap them in, lock them in place. Right, yeah.

Because I think that's the thing that people are like, what's the comfort level of it? And how do I like support them? Because it hurts. But actually like thinking about this is slow, they can slow you down. Yeah. They can actually like impact your time. So yeah, actually quite a few athletes get quite full on breast reductions to increase their performance, not increase their performance, but to help their performance. Yeah, actually quite a few athletes get quite full-on breast reductions

to increase their performance. Not increase their performance, but to help their performance. Yeah, yeah. Those boobies, they get in the way. They're obstacles. They're soft though, eh? They're like quite fun sometimes. Yeah.

But I get it. Yeah. I imagine it is a pain if you've got big boobies and you want to like run a marathon. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. I am a big karaoke fan. I'm a huge karaoke fan. You can sing.

I have so much fun. You are that friend that's like, guys, guys, let's go to karaoke. I am, but I also go with lots of friends who aren't confident singers. You still have just as much fun. I have to be extremely drunk. Because even when I'm semi-drunk, I'm like, I'm not singing. I'll go to karaoke, but I'll sit in the back and drink. Well, only within the last sort of couple of months, the whole team,

we all went karaoke-ing in Wellington, and there was only one person missing, wasn't there, Producer Anna? Somebody had to go and do a mid-evening, quote-unquote, costume change. A little suspicious, if you ask me. Why would you need to change your clothes if you weren't going to come back out? Any excuse. And then also factoring in a quick shower as well. Sort of strange.

Why are you going to shower, but you're not even coming to the bar? I've just been working. I needed a shower. It was very suspicious This is my karaoke song My number one Four Non Blondes What's up

And so you can really Hit those high notes Like hey Hey I just love it It's such a ridiculous song But a Kiwi journo Has scoured the country

And asked karaoke bars And what do you call those people That take karaoke, mobile karaoke? People. People? Yeah, I don't know. But yes, journalist Lyric Wywerdy-Smith did a big scour of the entire country. And do you know what's interesting is that it differs in regions.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like up north you get a lot more country. In the cities you get a lot more country. In the cities you get a lot more Britney. But what she found, what Lyric found was that there were five songs that kind of stuck out overall across New Zealand as the most commonly requested songs.

And through it Robbie Williams is in there Oh god, I can just imagine people absolutely butchering these songs. But this is definitely a sloppy sing, you know what I mean? It's a big ballad. And everyone can join in. Yeah, it's a classic.

It's a classic. After this, another sort of demanding ballad-ish kind of song. Do you know what I mean? That was a big sing. Oh, this is hard. It's so hard. kind of song. I mean, that was a big sing. Valerie. Oh, this is hard. It's so hard. This is the kind of song

where, like, if you think you can sing, I think I'm going to do Amy Winehouse, Valerie. I'm offended by this. No, this is a Canary classic, this one. Play wagon wheel.

Play wagon wheel. You've kind of got to admit, though, when you're drunk, it does go down a treat. Not a hard drink to swallow. Next one, I've got this tattooed on my back. I love this song so much. Bo Rat by Queen. What do you have tattooed on your back?

I've never seen your back But I wouldn't I wouldn't have ever seen your back No, we haven't been naked together You're right No The sheet music Oh, right Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

Vaughan and I gave us a red hot go in Christchurch I would have known if I was there No, in Christchurch You were there God, how drunk were you? Oh, at the Vagas Bingo. It wasn't karaoke. I was on the piano.

He was on the mic. He absolutely massacred that, didn't he? He did. And rounding out the top five. It's a classic. It's a classic. All of these big sings. Yeah.

It's like when you walk past a karaoke bar, sometimes you're like, ooh. Oh, babe. Well, exactly. It's like when I was doing karaoke. You're up here and you need to be down here.

because I don't think Eminem is going to be able to come so I can hop up on stage at that point. I'm white. I can rap. We'll do that. Just have your own sideshow

going, Hayley. Alright, thank you. Well done, Megan. Congratulations. Tickets throughout the day as well, so keep listening to ZM to win. Otherwise, they go on sale a week today, Friday, Ticketmaster, 11am. Yeah, well, my Friday flashback this week, and it was an easy, easy pick. This

song is from 1999. It was their third number one single in that year in the Billboard Hot 100. It's in all of the lists of the greatest R&B songs of all time, the greatest songs from the 90s of all time, of the 90s. It was number one in New Zealand, Australia, everywhere around the world. It sold millions and millions and millions of albums, CDs, you name it.

And you get the chance to see it live in November. TLC are on the show with us next. It's No Scrub, ZM. No Scrub is a guy that thinks he's flying. He's also known as a buster. Always taking my money once and just sits on his broke ass. So no, I don't want your number. No, I don't want to give you mine.

And no, I don't want to meet you nowhere. No, I don't want a young time. And no, I don't want no scrub. The scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me. Hanging on the passenger side of his best friend's ride. Trying to holler at me. I don't want no scrub. The scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me. Bye. And it's looking like cash can't get what I can't be that. So no, I don't want your number. No, I don't want to give you mine.

And no, I don't want to meet you nowhere. No, no, I won't let me know time. No, I don't want no scrub. A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me. Thinking of the passenger side of his best friend's ride. Trying to holler at me. I don't want no scrub. A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me. Thank you. With your mama Oh yes son I'm talking to you If you have a shorty But you don't show love

Oh yes son I'm talking to you Wanna get with me With no money Oh no I don't want no No No

No No No No No No No No no no No, no, no, no No, no, no, no I don't want no scrub

Scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me Hanging on the passenger side Trying to holler at me I don't want no scrub Scrub as I gotta keep getting on up from me Hanging on the passenger side of his best friend's ride Trying to holler at me If you can't spatially expand my horizons Then it leaves you in a class with scrubs never rising

I don't find it surprising if you don't have the G's To please me and bounce from here to the coast of overseas So let me give you something to think about. Inundate your mind with intentions to turn you out. Can't forget to focus on the picture in front of me. Do it clear as DVD on digital TV screens. Satisfy my appetite with something spectacular. Jack your vernacular, and then I give back to ya.

And we caught up with T-Boz and Chilly to chat to them. Welcome to the show. Thank you. Hi. Yes. Wow. Actually, beside myself, I've been a long-time fan of TLC

ever since the 90s, not to make any of us feel old. We're not old. We're just properly seasoned. Yes. Oh, well-seasoned performers. Yeah. We love it well-seasoned. Properly seasoned.

Marinated. We've all marinated in the 90s and 2000s. Yes. Nicely marinated, nice and tender and just perfect, just ready. We're dry-aged. Stop talking to me. I feel like this has just turned into a conversation with the butcher. Now, ladies, we haven't seen you for a while.

You were here in 2016 2016 and I don't think you'd been here before that, had you, in New Zealand? Oh, New Zealand? No, that was the first time. Wow. Yeah, that was the first time,

I believe. A lot has changed. Well, nothing changes in New Zealand, really, at a rapid pace. It's still the same. Are you excited? Are you excited to come down

this side of the earth? Absolutely. Yes. I think, you know what, the last time we were there, which was the first time, I remember when we left the next day, you guys had a tsunami warning or something. Oh, yeah.

We loved those. I was like, what the heck? Did you have to find a hill? Oh, you had left by then. Yeah, they were on the plane taking off and we all just got swamped. I remember it. Yeah. I was like, yeah.

TLC just left. And so how have you guys been finding, because you guys were our special guests at Glastonbury. How was that? Oh, my God, it was amazing. That was absolutely amazing. And then we found out we broke some records there. So we were like, wow.

We were like, yeah. With attendance for the stage that we were on. And we found out as soon as we walked off stage. And so that was awesome. It was amazing watching the footage and seeing people, you know, like watching No Scrubs. And then seeing people who definitely weren't even born when No Scrubs came out and they're singing every single word. Like a lot of your music has stood the test of time.

Did you feel that? Oh, yeah. We definitely felt the love. I mean, it was everybody was singing all of our songs, you know, from the first album. And I mean, they were singing along with us. And, you know, and a lot of people that were there obviously have never seen us you know perform before

and so it was I'm telling you it was amazing that crowd was crazy oh my gosh. When you come down to see us obviously you're in great company with a lot of amazing artists are you going to be playing us all of your bangers

or are there some surprises in there can you can you give us a little tease of what we can expect well usually i would say a high energy show it'll be like we're at a backyard barbecue all together at one like house party all together you'll feel as one like um like we're just sharing one big stage together i think it's a good time. People leave and they have a good feeling when they leave our shows. You know what I mean? And I think you have a different range of emotions

throughout the show. Like it's like riding a happy roller coaster. That's what I like to call it. But overall, a very good, energetic time. Well, we will be in the crowd watching you absolutely singing every single word. We are beside ourselves that you are coming to New Zealand for Friday Jams Live. Thank you so much, TLC. Thank you.

Thank you. Hey, Macklemore, can we go thrift shopping? All right, Macklemore on the show with Brianne Clint this afternoon. Yes. 4. Yes. 4.45. Don't forget, you can text JAMS to 9696 for all the info on Friday Jams Live. Joined with Akon, TLC. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly little poe. Silly little poe. It is so silly, silly, silly. That silly little poe. Silly little Pole It is so silly, silly, silly That Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole

Silly Little Pole Well, it's time for our Silly Little Pole. An interesting one today. Do your friends know your salary? Know how much you earn? Okay. Some people are very open about it. Yes.

I am. I earn... No. Some people... In my industry that I started in, in the theatre industry, it's very open because there's so much disparity, so you would often share it and be like, well, we're in the same rehearsal room. I'm going to pay this and then you bring

it up. Doing the same role. Yeah, yeah. So you kind of sort of help each other out in that way. I reckon I've got maybe a couple of friends who know round about what I would earn. Obviously your fiance knows. Fiance knows, but probably not everyone. Well, there would be some people

that wouldn't even tell their partners how much they earn. Yeah. Because then like if you tell your partner you're earning like way more they could be like well why don't you pay way more of the bills and you shout more dinners i've got sometimes like friends will text me like i got a i got a promotion at work and now i get i'm now i'm getting paid this yeah and so like i'm like that's amazing you know is it um america that they're like really it's really personal you'd never talk about it. It's taboo.

You would never. That's why Hollywood was so shocked when they started publishing their salaries. They get paid for films. Yeah. Because they're like, we don't talk about what we get paid. Yeah. Some messages in. Maddie says, I don't care if people know.

It's not going to change my salary, but it might make people feel bad and want me to pay for beers. I reckon Maddie owns a bit of money. Sugar Mama Maddie. Yeah. Polly says, oh, yes, my friends do know, but only because of the cost of living payment. Oh, you're right. Because you have to earn under a certain amount of money. It's the same with like GST.

When people start talking about GST and you're like, oh, so you earn over 75k or whatever it is. A lot of my friends are earning significantly lower than I assumed. Michael says, they don't need to know. I make more than them. As soon as they found out, I had to start shouting the rounds. See, this is what I'm saying. You keep it a secret.

Moana says, yes, most of my friends know. No shame for our group but some are quiet those marketing people are very quiet oh those marketing people they're getting the sweet

marketing money aren't they yeah Johanna says yes my friends know because I bitch about it constantly Amy says

no they don't and I don't want to know their salary's none of my business and doesn't change who they are as my friend. Yeah. Morgan says, I live in Australia, and I feel like it's talked about more here

because people are paid more. Really? People are quite open. I feel like that's also a bit of a braggy Australian thing to do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm on the smudge. Stephanie says, my friends know because I was at a party and my daughter got lippy and told everyone what my new salary was

after I got a job. It was a good salary, so I was at a party and my daughter got lippy and told everyone what my new salary was after I got a job. It was a good salary, so I was okay about it. Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Today's fact of the day. Hi, it's me, Hayley Sproul, and not Vaughan Smith.

Because Vaughan's sick today with the man flu. Vaughan's got the sniffles. But this has come from Vaughan. It has been certified Vaughan Smith tick. It's got the red tick. Yeah, because this is probably not a fact I would look for. Okay. Do you know what the annual global cost of corrosion is?

A.k.a. rust. Rust. I imagine it'd be quite a lot because of bridges that rust and collapse. $2.5 trillion. That's today's fact of the day. Today's fact of the day is that the annual global cost of corrosion is $2.5 trillion, which is the equivalent to 3.4% of the world's total gross domestic product. I feel like we should be painting some more rusty things.

Yeah. So basically, all it is is exactly that, that people are not doing corrosion management. They're not doing enough to slow down or stop or prevent the rate of corrosion in cars, bridges, you name it. Anything that's made out of metal, anything that can rust. And so the cost of constantly replacing these things, constantly replacing our cars, as opposed to having something that doesn't rust

and therefore you can use it longer, equates to $2.5 trillion. That's ridiculous money. If you think about the cost of, say, the Harbour Bridge. I don't know what's wrong with Harbour Bridge, but something's wrong with it. Well, I know that the Golden Gate Bridge and the Harbour Bridge in Auckland is probably the same.

They are constantly painting it. They never stop painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Because once they get to the end, they've got to start again. Because it's like, what's the water underneath the Golden Gate? It'll be salt water, right? Yeah, it's seawater. Just making sure it wasn't like sort of a river or something. Oh, no, no, no.

Yeah, it's salt water. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that salt would constantly be eroding that metal. And so imagine the cost if they weren't doing correct corrosion control and they're putting in standards now so that they can get this cost down. And so imagine the cost if they weren't doing correct corrosion control. Yeah. And they're putting in standards now so that they can get this cost down. If they weren't using correct corrosion control and meeting those standards,

the cost to replace that bridge is just millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars. And if everyone around the world was doing that because this is a global cost. Well, for God's sake, people listening. Well, that's what they said. Paint your metal things. If they implement corrosion prevention best practices, we could result in a global saving of 15% to 35% of that cost or $375 to $875 billion. Okay, well, if you've got something rusty, paint it or fix it.

So your nail, whack a bit of paint on it. And you could help us save $875 billion. So today's fact of the day is the annual global cost of corrosion, a.k.a. rust, is $2.5 trillion. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. and Hayley's Grocery Grab. All right, we're joined this morning for our Grocery Grab by Caitlin. Good morning, Caitlin. Morning.

I'm hyped up. It's Friday. And you can sign up and save with Market Club's exclusive weekly offers and deals. The warehouse you can eat savings for breakfast. Exciting. We want to talk about pesky little bugs and how they can destroy things.

Just one tiny little bug. Yeah, so there's a couple of things here. One is that there was some, they did a big survey of, you know, bug phobias and the stuff, and one in three people had considered just burning down their house after they found bugs. Because you have a

severe phobia of, and it's been crippling in the past, and I'll just quickly say the name for listeners, while you block your ears, moths. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And like, let me just put my headphones back on. It's so weird because like for my whole sort of like teenage life to

maybe a couple of years ago, it was really, really bad. Like really, really bad. And then just in the recent years, I've kind of gone over it, but I've maintained my inability to say the name. Moth. Even just saying that you grimace and you're like

It gives me like a neck thing. Anyway, yes, bug, I hate them. And we don't read this article about people considering burning down their houses. This kind of happened to me. I was living on my own in my second year of drama school.

And I was in my house and I, this was like peak phobia. And this is not like, oh, I don't like them. This is like phobia. Yeah. And then I,

one flew into the house. I live on my own. Sorry. I lived on my own. Yeah. And my parents still lived in Wellington at the time. Yeah. So I had something

in the oven and something baking and it came into the house and I grabbed my car keys and I locked the house and I just locked it and left the oven on

because it was in there and I drove to my parents house which was like 20 minutes away they lived in Kondala and I went and I was there and I was like there's a thing in the house

and they were like okay so you didn't just kill it and I was like no was there and I was like, the thing in the house. And they were like, okay, so you didn't just kill it? And I was like, no. And then my dad was like, all right, I'll drive out to Brooklyn with you. Came out with me to like deal with this thing. And had to get the out of the house. Had to get the thing out of the house.

But then he was like, Hales, the nothing's on. I was like, yeah, I had to leave. And he was just like, you could have just burnt this house down. Well, this is what happened. Somebody in Oregon just this week started a wildfire trying to burn a spider. And it was a 60 hectare wildfire. It's mostly under control now by the sounds of it. But one spider, this guy was like, I need to incinerate this spider because I cannot deal with it.

So he spritzed it, like absolutely, and then... It doesn't say, it just says with a lighter, but maybe using a spray can as well. Spray and then set it ablaze. Which you 100% shouldn't do.

We wanted to ask the question this morning, when has a bug, a tiny little bug or an insect, freaked you out and caused a ruckus? Because this can cause people to crash. I crashed my car. I was driving

from Petone to Wellington, Petone to Wellington in my car, window down. I'm not going to lie, I was having a cigarette. It was 2008, you know?

Okay, back when you smoked ciggies. Gross. And then I put the window down, an MOTH flew in, and I was like, ah! And I just went like this into the barrier.

That is wild. All right, well, we want to take your calls. 0800-DARLS-AT-M. Text in 9696. When did a bug cause a ruckus or cause some carnage? For now, we are talking about when a bug caused an absolute ruckus. A man set up 60 acres, hectares of land on fire because he was trying to kill a bug.

You've nearly crashed your car because a moth flew into your car. You nearly burnt down the house because you had to evacuate the house during cooking. I know, so we want to hear your stories. And so many coming in. Dania, good morning. Morning. Good morning.

When did a little bug cause a ruckus? Um, so when I was four, um, back in the early 90s, like I learned when I rode the radio that there was a swarm in the area. Oh, okay. A swarm of bees. God, isn't radio so informative? It really is. People know in the instance, doesn't it?

Mm. Um, and so my mum went outside to get me because they told me I should go inside and, you know, lock the doors and everything. And so she looked outside to get me and I was on the neighbour's tramp and I was covered in bees. Oh, wait, so the swarm had already got to you?

Yeah, so the queen apparently had landed on me and the swarm followed. Oh, my God. The queen's like, guys, I've found our new home. She's forced. Pretty much. And then the queen, my mum watched and she said the queen flew away and then they all flew away and then I just collapsed on the tramp. Oh, my gosh.

Because people die getting stung like that many times from bees. Have you seen My Girl? Have you seen My Girl? Have you seen My Girl? Oh, that movie traumatised me even more. Maybe, but I don't remember. He doesn't have his glasses. Oh, my God. You're going to eat.

That's your wicked disorder. Thanks, Nicole. Sherea, when did a little bug cause a big ruckus? Oh, heck. It caused a ruckus a while ago. I was moving from Te Arawa to Hamilton. I got all my stuff out of a storage unit. I was unpacking. Next minute, I felt out of a storage unit. I was unpacking.

Next minute, I felt something move in the box that I was going through. I went outside, tipped it upside down, moved the papers, and OMG, there was a spider the size of my hand. The legs were even longer than my hand. The landlord let it loose in the flipping garden in Hamilton in Forest Lake.

He's like, oh, no, don't kill the spider. Oh my god, kill it. Picked it up with his paintbrush and let it off in the garden in Forest Lake in Hamilton. So there's a big spider there, who knows? Who knows? Who knows who's got it now? I'm done in questions now. Wait, you had to move

cities because of the giant spider that you let out. Even the ratnophobia night, they're moving away. Wait, you hadn't moved from, like, Australia, had you? No. Oh, fuel. I had my stuff in a storage unit in Seattle. Right.

Jeepers, creepers, that sounds awful. Because it sounds like a big, like, gnarly Australian spider. Yeah, like the huntsman. Yeah. I reckon it's huge. Do you reckon it's just gone into this forest in Hamilton and it's just made like a million of them? Oh, probably. Who knows?

Yuck. Don't think about it too hard. Not your problem. They can't get over to the South Island unless they get an inter-Islander ticket. Yeah, no big expensive. I've been to a swim. Yeah.

Oh, yuck. Yuck. Okay, that's not worth thinking about. As a charrette,. Oh, yuck. Yuck. Okay, that's not worth thinking about. Sherea, thanks for your call. Some messages in. When my son was a newborn, a roach climbed over us on the bed so I wrapped him up, put him in the car and stayed at my mum's for three nights.

I was paddle boarding and a really big spider started crawling towards me. Wait, they could have been swimming over the Cook Strait. To get to Shirea. To get to Shirea. I had nowhere to go, so I just jumped into the water. Where the sharks are.

Where I had just seen a massive stingray. But I would rather the stingray than the spider. I mean, the stingrays only have like a knife barb on their tail. Yeah. When I was younger, my brother and I were riding our bike. Oh, no. It's about. It's about a moth.

Sorry, I've got to skip the moth ones. What happened when they were riding the bike? Did the moth. Flew into its mouth. Into its mouth. Flew into the mouth. A little midgie bug flew into my mouth once, hit the back of my throat.

I gagged and vomited so hard I peed myself for the next two or three hours. All I could do is gag and vomit knowing I ate the bug. A little midgie. I was at a school camp in National Park. I'm a teacher. When I got back into reception, I had multiple missed calls and texts from my flatmate.

Assuming the worst, I rung back. There was a praying mantis on her window and she wanted me to remove it. She'd slept in my room until I got home at the end of the week. There are so many messages. Oh, my God, moving to New Zealand from Australia. I brought a huntsman over by mistake in my luggage. And that's the one that wants Shireya. And it's swimming, overcooked straight, past the paddle border to get Shireya.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I was in the French Alps when I was 12 and it was summer. Mum and Dad had taken us as kids in a canoe car. We decided to... Wait, a what? I don't know. A what?

We decided to walk partly down the grassy slopes when I saw this is on the Alps, when I saw a spider on my foot, I kicked off my shoe and literally tumbled all the way down the side of Mount Blanc. My parents still remind me of this now and I'm 46. Bugs, mate.

They can absolutely destroy the world.
