Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley podcast.
It's thanks to McCafe.
Grab any size McCafe coffee for only $4.
Conditions apply.
Now, you're at the start of the podcast, which we record at the end of the show.
Yes.
Bit of a time warp there.
Yeah.
I think people, yeah, might be struggling to grasp how that works.
It's just after 9am, the
live show has finished, the
podcast record happens
now, the intro for the podcast.
Then we take it and we go back to
6am. We should probably do the podcast
intro before the show so that we
warm up somewhat. No spoiler, but
we want the podcast intro to always be the best
bit. Yeah.
We're not warming up with it.
This is what ties
the people into the podcast.
We get to say things like,
fuck.
Oh!
You know?
If you want.
A little bit of...
I mean, you certainly said
some words up there today
on the live show.
Yeah, have a listen
and see if you think
I took it too far today.
I tell you what,
for we were thinking
to tease what's coming up
on the podcast,
we could utilize a situation that presents itself today specifically.
In the calendar, it says intern Ben watching the show.
Intern Ben's been watching the show.
Hi, intern Ben.
Hi, intern Ben.
And sit on microphone one, please.
This is intern Ben.
We've never met him before.
Good morning, intern Ben. Morning. Now met him before. Good morning intern Ben.
Morning.
Now what are you doing? How long are you interning for? What's the deal? What's going on here?
Hang on, I'll let you put on your headphones and get comfortable.
Don't hurry the man.
Take a seat, take a seat.
You guys are very welcoming.
Yeah, of course.
Thank you, thank you.
No my heart of mine. To the studio.
Whereabouts are you interning from? What's happening?
So I came up from Christchurch. I working at the hits currently i can see where you came and sat in for the day yeah
um but you have a 1b5 notebook yeah a wallick yeah so this is actually from school from actually my
primary school days this is my note-taking. So you haven't taken many notes in life, have you?
No.
From primary school to now.
It's got everything.
It's the condensed version of life.
I'm 20.
20 from primary school to now.
You've been watching the show for a few hours,
and every now and again you just scribble something into your 1B5.
Yeah.
That's why we were writing down.
We thought, could you maybe walk us through anything you've learned
from the show today while watching?
Well, it wasn't necessarily the show I was watching, it was the producers.
I was going to say, this feels very self-congratulatory for us to be like, you tell us what you learnt from us.
Well, what have you learnt from the producers?
Because, I mean, we always wanted to keep them on the top of their game.
So if you notice something they can improve on.
Well, I don't want to impose myself on them, know something they can improve on.
But one of the main ones, Anna also did say it was very important
to keep a respectful relationship so they can, you know,
produce good content.
Between them and us.
Between them and us.
Oh, yeah, right.
Okay.
Do you find, Anna, that you get a respectful relationship back in return?
This was actually
In context
She hasn't even turned
Your mic on
That's how much
Disrespect she has
It's this first day
This was actually
No she's not
Someone's muted you
Turn on your own mic
Right now
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah have some respect
Yeah yeah yeah
In your 20 years of life
You've taken less than
A 1B5 note
But this morning
You've actually
Been influenced so much
Put that down.
When the announcers
ask you a question, make sure your faders
up and on. Mic on.
Respectful.
Respect giveth and getteth.
This was actually in context too
when I said, hey guys, we're actually really late
this morning. We are going to need to keep this break
quite short. And then you said
fuck off.
I remember that being said. And that's when i said it's really important to have a good uh trust so you were being sarcastic
it was yeah yeah put down sarcasm lowest form of wit sarcasm what anything else anything else
that you jotted down some notes there it's kind of just like laying down what each of them individually do.
Okay.
So you were going to be a producer.
Is that what you're saying?
Actually, no.
I literally have no experience being a producer.
I just came in and was like, yeah.
Well, that's why you've taken notes.
You've got some dulcet tones there, Ben.
You've got a nice, rich, deep tone.
And like this scratchy lot.
I prefer the descriptive
word reedy.
Which is great for a station
called Zenim.
Like a saxophone.
Yeah, lovely. We're happy to share
our knowledge and our expertise
with you. I've been in radio for four months. I hope
you learn a lot from me
in particular, other than
these two. Nice.
All right, well, thanks for coming in.
Yeah, best of luck. Thank you for having me.
Good luck.
Good luck with the 1B5.
Maybe get some Duracell on that.
It's looking quite tatty too.
No Duracell.
I know.
No Duracell.
Yeah, I know.
You're pro.
Oh, no, I'm surprised there's no Duracell.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Thank you, Rachel.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show. Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Thank you, Rachel. Good morning. Welcome to the show.
Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Two minutes past six.
Happy Thursday.
Happy Thursday.
Very bright yellow today from you.
Canary yellow jumper.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Jared's got his minion yellow hoodie on.
Yeah, but you didn't wear your yellow T-shirt.
I know.
Well, next time let's coordinate.
Vaughan's got his yellow backpack as per.
A little bit of yellow.
You don't have any yellow clothing though,
do you?
You're not a yellow,
nor of an earthy tone.
I'm a 40 year old man.
There's absolutely no room
in my wardrobe
for anything yellow.
I think you could pull off yellow.
No.
I think it would bloody
add a little pep into your step.
Um,
okay.
No.
But then also,
bees can come at you,
can't they?
When you're wearing yellow.
Is it purple that bees love a bit of purple?
Do they?
Oh, yeah.
Purpley blues.
You've got that eggplant T-shirt.
I've got an eggplant, but I've got my Grimace.
You sometimes wear.
I've got my Grimace T.
Yeah.
And do you notice bees come at you then?
No.
Maybe it's too dark.
Okay.
Maybe they're like a more vibrant violet.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll keep an eye out for the bees today.
Okay, great. Coming up on the show, the top six. Okay. I'll keep an eye out for the bees today. Okay, great.
Coming up on the show, the top six.
Yeah, Arnott's are moving production of various biscuits, chippies,
and what do they call shapes?
Because they don't call shapes.
Is it a cracker?
Shapes, yeah, crackers.
Were you calling shapes chippies?
No.
Do they do chippies, Arnott's?
I don't think they do chippies.
Tiny teddies, that's a biscuit.
They're moving them back to New Zealand.
Right.
I've got the top six ways you can tell your cracker or bicky was made in New Zealand.
All right, it's coming up.
Also on the show today, another chance for you to win,
excuse me, a 12-month Spark broadband plan with Netflix.
We'll give you a Netflix quiz around 7.30 this morning,
your chance to win.
But next on the show...
Well, there's been a new Guinness World Records set
by a 100-year-old man, a very loyal and dedicated man.
All right, it's next.
Fletchvorn and Hayley Fletchvorn and Hayley
It's Ali
Ali Dua
Ali Dua
Dua
We have during this song
Been googling the pronunciation
Of her name
Well because there's no
Thing above
What do you call the things
Accent
Yeah the thing above the E
There's an accent
On my system
I think just to make it
Easy to search
Yeah
There's no thing above the E
Ali Dua Dua.
Beautiful name. I wish I had a little
accent. Yeah, beautiful song.
Can I add some dots
over the O, like Motley Crue?
Omelette. I did that on my
Instagram, because I'm 8% Swedish.
I just put a couple of dots
above the A in my first name.
Yeah. I don't know if that's even
Swedish or a thing,
but certainly it's succeeded up the name a lot.
It's like Motley Crue.
They've got dot dots on the O and the U.
I could be Hayley with maybe a flat one
and then Sproul with a dot dot on the O.
Your wife's got a...
She's got an accent over the E that turns the E into an A.
Yeah.
Shard.
What about if you went...
People call her shard.
Yeah.
What if you did one above the A?
Harley.
If I did a flat one, I can't remember what they're called,
but you know in the Maori language, the flat line, it would extend...
Macron?
Yeah, it would extend the A.
Harley.
Harley Sprout.
Harley Sprout.
I could do that.
I could do that.
I could do that.
I could do that.
I could do that.
I could do that.
Harley Davidson. A little nod. I could do that. I sound like a Harley Davidson.
A little nod to my Maori heritage there.
Look out for those macrons and those little accents coming to my name very soon.
Hey, this is a really sweet story.
A new Guinness World Record has been set for staying in one job the longest.
This is bonkers.
So the man who has won this award is 100 years old, still working.
No one's beating this guy anytime soon. No retirement at 65 for this guy. Walter,
of course his name's Walter. Walter Orfman, who lives in a small Brazilian town called Brusque,
Brusque, was hired at a textile company called Renew View on January 17th, 1938, 84 years ago.
Oh, wow.
He took the job to support his family financially during hard times.
He was then promoted to a sales position not long after and then became a sales manager,
which is the job that he has kept ever since.
Oh, so he's only the manager.
So he just gets people to go out and sell.
He's not actually having to go and pull on.
Oh, I mean, he's 100 years old.
I imagine he's very sedentary at this point.
Do they not have the heart to fire him or get rid of him?
I reckon if he's been around that long, he's just like a mascot at this stage, right?
Yeah.
He just shows up and they use him as sort of a, you know, like,
here, we'll get an email.
Oh, Deidre's been with the company 50 years.
Yeah.
And then she just becomes a little bit of a, like, flagpole of.
Yeah, it's great.
You're having a bad day, do you?
Deidre's been here 50 years.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Deidre's put all her petty shit aside and knuckled down.
Shown up for 50 years.
If it's good enough for Deirdre, it's good enough for you.
He celebrated his birthday only last month, 100 years old.
He exercises every day.
Oh, wow.
Goes to work and exercises every day, 100 years old.
He says no signs of quitting anytime soon.
Well, this will be us when we burn through our KiwiSaver.
Oh, my God, I know.
And, you know, at 68 and you've got to work from 68 on.
If you had to go back to the workforce
and you couldn't come back to radio because, you know,
you're 68 years old and nobody wants to hear
what you've got to say anymore, where would you go?
What would you do?
At 68.
At 68?
Fletcher would work in the airport doing the old man question answering.
But do you know what?
I think that would be fun.
And you know the old mates do it at the hospital too.
You walk in and those volunteers are at that desk.
Yes.
And you're like, I need to go to the place with all the cancer.
But then you'd have to drive.
I need to go to the place with all the cancer.
I don't know.
That's what they say.
Someone really ill comes in and is like, where's the cancer?
Where can I go for the cancer?
But if you worked in the airport, you'd have to drive out to Mangani every day
and you're a city man.
You'd have to move out south to be a bit closer.
But I think those jobs are volunteers as well.
No, they get paid.
No, they are. The airport people
are the old people.
They're volunteers, eh?
I'm pretty sure they are.
I think they are.
I think they're volunteers.
They might get some perks.
Like?
Well, they have like a free coffee.
All the booze confiscated from security.
Well, they can pop into the Kudu Club.
Yeah.
Or can they?
They get a sandwich.
Yeah, and get a sandwich and a coffee.
Vaughn, where are you heading in your new career at 68 years old
when you've run out of Kiwi Sabre?
Hedges.
You'd do a Jim's mowing or something.
Yeah, I probably would do a sort of a tinkering lawn tinkering.
I don't want an old fella turning up to mow my lawns.
I want a hot young boy.
I want a 22-year-old young boy with his shirt off.
Right, okay.
Well, you turned up at 68 with your shirt off
with your bloody old lawn mower.
Hacking at my edges.
My saggy old man tits.
Yeah, tripping on your own tits.
Getting them caught in the mower.
If it were me, I'd be experienced.
I know how to trim a good hedge.
I know how to mow the lawn.
Hayley wants a perv.
I want someone to look at.
That's what I'm doing at 68.
Just being a perv?
Yeah, because I'm going to be smart with my KiwiSaver
and let you fall.
I'm going to be sitting in my mansion
looking at my window at my 22-year-old lawnmower.
Yeah.
Where's your husband when all this is happening?
Assuming he's married you by then.
Assuming Aaron and I are married by the time I'm 68.
I mean, we've got a bit of an age gap, so he'll be long gone.
Right.
So you'll actually be with the lawnmower by then.
I'll be with whoever I want to be with.
Maybe that day it's the lawnmower boy. Maybe the with whoever I want to be with. Maybe that day it's the lawnmower boy.
Maybe the next day it's the pool boy.
You won't have a pair of saggy old tits mowing your lawn, but you think the guy
mowing your lawn wants your saggy old tits.
I would have hoisted those
bad girls up years before.
Plastic surgery it up.
I'm going to look like a tight leather wallet.
Alright. it.
Well, today's silly little poll. I think our
producers yesterday experienced
this and hence it was straight up as our Silly Little Pole.
What happened yesterday?
So I was having a little chat with Georgia from the day show
about peanut butter and having it on toast, et cetera.
And she revealed that her partner and her mum
both let the toast go cold rather than eating it immediately,
which I thought everyone did.
Yeah, that's wild.
When you said this in the group chat,
I was like, monsters.
Absolute monsters.
Yeah, because they're just eating
crusty bread.
Yeah, it's just like hard...
Hard bread.
Dry bread.
Do they put the butter
and peanut butter on
or whatever they're having
on their toast straight away?
Or do they let the toast go cold
and then... So I think they let it go cold. straight away or do they let the toast go cold and then?
So I think they let it go cold.
I think they do that classic stack the two pieces of bread up like a little triangle and let it go.
It's very old fashioned by grandma.
They just want crusty, hard bread.
But it's so tough.
You know when you think maybe I'm going to have another piece of toast
and you might have a two toast, not a four slice
like me. And you put one in and then you forget
about it. It goes cold and you find it in the toaster
before you put the toaster away. It goes in the bin.
Yeah. That's
ugh. And you've got to put butter
on when it's hot and it melts all through.
Like when the honey's melted or the
jam melts.
Go butter, go butter, go butter.
Get your melt on, go butter. Get your melt on.
Get your melt on.
Get your melt on.
Get some cheese on.
This was very, very one-sided.
It was, but a surprising amount still said cold.
89% immediately.
Yep.
Do you eat it immediately or let it go cold?
11% still.
Let it go cold.
It's an 11%.
It is a crouton. I is a crouton, yeah.
I'm having buttered croutons for breakfast.
But even croutons you have, like, they're better in soup, right?
I'd never have them in a salad.
You'd have croutons in a salad.
Unless they get all soggy from the dressings and stuff.
No, the whole point of a crouton is to add crunch to a salé.
You need to get your head around the salad making game.
So the message is in Alec
says immediately obviously
so the butter melts
get your melt on
get your melt on
I want to drip it down my sleeve
what's that dripping down my wrist
it's butter baby it's butter
baby get your melt on go butter
you know it's a good piece of toast when the butter reaches the elbow
before you know it you're good piece of toast when the butter reaches the elbow before you know it
you're busy
and then you're just like
whoop
I think that's a lot
too much butter maybe
there's never
never enough butter
if the butter
hits the weenus
I'm excited
in the penis
that's my
that's my saying
you know that
you know that's my
age old thing
you need to slap
that on a t-shirt
if the butter
hits the weenus
big butter need to use that as their slogan.
Big butter anchor.
I'm open to whoever wants to corporately pay me $10,000 for your new advertising slogan.
I want to talk to your mate that works at Big Dairy.
No, he works at Big Bread.
Oh, Big Bread.
He's Big Bread.
Yeah, he's Big Bread.
You could tie them together.
Ngadi says, in fact, if I'm in a rush, I'll shove it in the freezer for a minute.
I hate my butter melting.
Always cold. What? In the freezer, Ngadi says, in fact, if I'm in a rush, I'll shove it in the freezer for a minute. I hate my butter melting. Always cold.
What?
In the freezer, Ngadi.
No.
How do you spread the butter?
You've got to have soft, spreadable butter firstly, right?
I reckon, I'm going to call it, Ngadi uses margarine.
She uses margarine.
That doesn't run to the weeners.
Marge on the weeners.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Jess says, both.
If you've got some mar, no. No. Jess says both. I love vege... If you've got some margina...
No.
You don't...
Margina on your wiener.
Yeah, not...
Nothing on the penis.
Nothing on the penis.
Yeah.
Jess says both.
I love Vegemite on toast after it's cold,
as long as it was spread warm,
but honey and peanut butter hot.
Jess, you're thinking too much about toast.
Yeah, wow.
Too much thought into this.
Georgia depends on the bread.
Vogels and ploughmans immediately.
But any other bread, I let it cool.
Has to be with butter also.
None of this BS marge.
Yeah, no marge.
She's not on the marge barge.
Wow, a lot of people, I like it cold
unless it's honey on toast.
Keep it cold because I don't like it when the butter melts.
What?
The butter melting on toast is the best thing in the whole world.
Butter melted is when butter is at its peak butter.
Yeah.
Corey has got a good point.
I let it cool so I can taste big slabs of butter.
I mean, I get that.
You know, sometimes on a scone,
you like to not have it so hot that it soaks into the scone.
A little bit cooler.
Nah, see, I like to soak.
Slabs.
No, no, no.
Soak it in.
That's when you've got to put so much butter on
that you get the soak in, but you also get the knobs.
Yes.
That's how you put butter on a scone.
So you're talking 250 grams on each scone half.
Like a thick.
Oh, a 50 and a 50.
A thick.
A big, thick slice.
Oh, yum.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
64 years ago.
Morton, or Mort
as he likes to go by. Morty.
I reckon Morty. I was going to say that's not a name
you hear anymore. No, but me a Mort.
Get in here, Mort.
He was
absolutely smitten by a woman that he met
on a beach in Atlantic City in 1958.
But he wasn't sure that she felt the same way.
They met.
He was 19 years old.
He was an amateur trumpet player at the time.
Okay.
So they met, had this little lovely date at the beach, went apart.
And he said, I decided to put my feelings down in a letter.
And then I thought, why not turn it into a song?
Because he's a trumpet player.
So he wrote this song called My Love.
And that was it.
He wrote the sheet music for it, wrote the lyrics down,
tucked it away.
He then went off into the Navy for a few years.
When he came back, he met that very woman
that he fell in love with on the beach again,
proposed to her. The song is still a secret
proposed to her
she said yes
they got married
64 years later
their grandson
finds this sheet music
for the song
that his grandfather
had written
called My Love
now is grandad dead
at this stage?
grandad's alive
he's alive
Mort is well and truly alive.
Right.
And his grandson is also a trumpet player.
And then he said, what's this sheet music?
And his grandad was like, oh, my gosh, I wrote that for your grandmother the day I met her.
And he said, oh, let's have a little play.
And they played it together.
And they were like, he was like, this song is amazing.
So then his grandson, who's young and up with the talk,
was like, we need to record this.
We've got a whole bunch of jazz musicians.
He sung it and they recorded the song 64 years after it was written.
Now it's had 2 million listens.
Have a listen.
You never seem to know that I love you so.
How very 19th century.
It's a Buble.
It's not Buble. Just tears me apart. Well,th century. It's a Buble. It's not Buble.
Just tears me apart
Well, you could imagine it being a Buble song.
It's got big Buble energy.
But now, yeah, it's been shared
two million times on TikTok.
People absolutely gagging for the song.
Is the wife still alive?
The wife is still alive and then...
Jesus, what's your obsession with one of them being dead?
No, because it's... you want to kill them?
What's that?
They're old, mate.
They're going to die eventually.
Let's just enjoy them
while they're here.
Like, that was a long time ago.
A very long time ago
but no, they're still alive.
He was 19 when they met.
64 years.
What is that?
80?
83.
Oh, yeah.
So, they're 83 years old
and then their grandson
put him on TikTok
to release this song.
And then they showed a video of him and his wife dancing to the song.
So she loves it.
She loves it.
That's her song.
You can imagine some grey mask being like, no, it's all right.
I used to always think.
Don't make a fuss.
Don't make a fuss.
Don't get him on that bloody trumpet again.
Shut up, Mort.
Shut up, Mort.
Mort, I'm trying to watch my shows.
I've always thought this when I've heard these beautiful love songs.
I'm just not that girl.
You know what I mean?
I'm just not the girl that people write love songs about.
I think I had one person write a song about me,
and it was pretty aggressive.
Right.
They were in a heavy metal band.
Oh, my God.
That's just who I was back in those days.
But no one's ever written a, oh, I love you so, my heart aches when you're away.
But when you say back in those days, was it like a rock quest?
Heavy metal band?
Yeah, like I would have been like 18 or something.
Right.
Bless.
Yeah, okay.
They had a German name, did they?
Oh, yeah, like Esch, Neig.
Yeah, yeah.
Classic.
Classic high school.
Play ZM's Fletchford and Hayley. Yeah, yeah, classic. Classic high school.
Now, NordPass, they have reviewed over 290 million data breaches worldwide.
We've quite often talked about the most common passwords that people have.
My password.
Password.
All the cases.
Well, that's the thing.
So they get these data breaches, and you actually, you might get notifications in your browser or your operating system saying hey or on your iphone saying hey you've got some compromised passwords i get it
all the time so that means that your whoever company you've logged on to and created an
account has had a data breach and that data is possibly out on the on the dark web being sold
to people on the worldwide web um so change your passwords. I can't though. I don't
have the memory for it.
No, you just use those
really hard ones and save them.
I know, but then when you go and sign in on some
different device, they're not always
there. And then you've got to do
the forgot my password. I'm not going to remember
six capital T, lowercase
R, M, you know, I can't.
Yeah, well,
they've looked at because I guess they've somehow managed to find out
people that are CEOs
or in management and grab all
of their data to study
and they have revealed that
CEOs continue
to choose very common
passwords such as 1 2 3 4 5
things like very common words Michael as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Things like
very common words, Michael,
Jordans and Dragons and other
mythical creatures. Michael Jordan.
Michael Jordan, of course, a mythical creature.
Yeah. Never seen anything like him.
But yeah, it turns out CEOs
are just like us. The most common
password, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Oh dear. Like 30,000
CEOs with that password.
But they've got access to hugely confidential information on their computers.
Pathword, the second most common, 12345.
And then one through to nine is the fourth most common.
QWERTY, followed by 1234.
QWERTY, 1234.
1234.
There's 6,500 CEOs around the world.
That is their password.
And yeah, they could be in charge of like a multi-million dollar company.
Guys, you've got to do better.
Just versions of that.
QWERTY, 1, 2, 3, and then 7-1s.
I reckon it'd tank your stocks if you were in charge of a company that was publicly listed
and they found out your password was like admin.
Or password one.
Yeah.
Password one, password two.
And then you get like to the end of the year,
you're like, what number am I up to?
I know.
Because I mean, we've got like, it's quite strict here.
So I don't think our CEO would be allowed to have a one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
No, because you have to have a certain amount of characters.
You can't have sequential numbers you can't have sequential rather numbers or
letters. Yeah. Yeah and then it's going to be
capitals, lowercase, symbols
numbers and you have to
constantly change it as well. Yeah you're not allowed to use
a version you've used in the last like 10
years or something. You're not even allowed to use a
similar one. No you can't even just like
add a number. I was rocking the whole
season and then year.
Oh yeah yeah yeah., so password winter 22.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But then I started doing it in 2020, winter 2020.
And then when it got to winter 2021, it was like, you can't use this.
It's too similar to one of your last 1,000 passwords.
I just go a password generator, generate like 25 long password,
and then I jot it down in my password notebook at home.
That's great.
It's very secure because the scammers can't get into my notebook.
Try get into my notebook.
But they are running that password generator that you use.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that would be smart.
From the self-driving ZM think tank,
this is the top six.
Arnott's have announced their sweet biscuits
and savoury biscuits.
What did their website call them?
There was this really weird definition of...
Oh, I've lost it.
Oh, it's not open.
I shut the tab.
Oh, babe.
I shut the tab.
You've really ruined this moment, haven't you?
Because now I want to know.
I could probably find it again.
Oh.
Will it be worth the wait?
It better be.
What's another word for sweet biscuits? Chocolate biscuits, sweet
biscuits, savoury biscuits.
That's what they call crackers.
Savoury biscuits.
Whereas I'd call them crackers. Do you remember
when we made the giant squiggle?
Yep. Who was the Griffins
eater? Griffins.
We went to the factory and we walked past when they were making the,
were they making?
Mallow puffs.
Mallow puffs.
Oh my God.
It was like hypnotic.
Yeah.
You just saw them go past in like hundreds of them.
I could have just watched it for hours.
I've been watching Snack Masters.
Yes.
That's my favourite part of Snack Masters,
when Tom Sainsbury goes to the factory and you just kind of get a peek behind the curtain.
I love seeing that stuff.
You know, there's that YouTube channel, How Stuff's Made.
Yes.
Oh, my God.
Like on Discovery or Nat Geo, one of those.
Yeah.
They always do like factory, mega factory.
Mega factory.
Yes.
Oh, I love a squiggle now.
I'm in the mood for squiggles.
Watching food get made.
Yes.
Yeah.
I couldn't work at those places.
I'd grab a mallopuff
and get sucked into the machine.
You would.
The McDonald's episode
of Snackmasters
where they show the Big Mac bun
because it's got to be
slightly higher
than a standard bun
because it's got the bread
in the middle.
It's cut into three.
Oh, yeah.
Fascinating.
It looked like a
Puffella Il Muffin.
And while you were there
you could grab any size
McCafe coffee
for only $4.
No, not in the factory.
No, they don't have a cafe out the front. I don. No, not in the factory. Oh, not in the factory.
No, they don't have a cafe out the front.
I don't know.
They've probably just got a coffee machine at the factory.
Okay, you're right.
Yeah, but I meant if you were to go to McCafe.
Exactly.
Any size.
Certainly.
Any size.
You might as well go for the big one.
Yeah.
So Arnott's is looking at bringing back the sweet biscuit,
the chocolate biscuits, the sweet biscuits and the savoury crackers.
Back to an Avondale-based factory.
Okay.
In Auckland.
There's some sketches there of their factory.
If you're into big bloody factories.
We could invite it.
You must be kicking yourself moving away
from that part of town.
I don't know.
Because you get the wharf of...
Oh, yeah.
It would have been down my end too
because I lived in the industrial end,
which was the problem.
That's where I left.
But, oh, yeah, maybe.
The smell of bickies.
Yeah.
It was like when I lived in Te Atatu
next to the Tasty factory
and I could tell what they were doing that day
if it was jam or like muesli bars
or you'd open the window
and be like
and it was always pleasant
oats
yeah
remember that time
I lived next to the Vivid Factory
I had to move away
pretty quick after that
you'd get a bit dizzy
bit of a problem
have a sunbathe outside
and
oh yeah
high as a kite
the Vivid Factory
Sharpie
I mean they've got to be made
somewhere right
someone has to live next to the whiteboard market factory.
Where is the vivid factory?
Where are the vivids, mate?
Let's see where are they made.
It'll be Southeast Asia or China, maybe even now.
Manufacturing South Africa.
Oh, okay.
90% of production takes place in South Africa.
That'll explain why they just pop their guns off all the time.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Bloody pinging on Sharpies.
So the top six signs your Arnott Vickies and Crackers are again being made in New Zealand.
Number six, iced animals.
The iced animals will once again be iced right to the edge.
Oh, they bloody better be.
And we'll get some more typical New Zealand shapes.
I remember Fair Go when they started tackling the icing issue.
People were so wild.
Did they stop going to the edge?
I think they shrunk them, didn't they?
Yeah, they shrunk them. The shapes became...
I remember when I was a kid, there was the icing
on one side, but if you flipped it over, you had a full
indent of the animal. You could definitely
tell what it was. It wasn't a guessing game.
I think they lost that mould.
And it just became blobs.
Once again, we'll have icing to the edges and better definition on our animals.
Good.
On the other side.
So there's absolutely no debate in it.
Number five on the list of the top six signs your Arnott Binkies have been made in.
Old Te Arawa again.
Farm-baked biscuits.
The bag will once again be full.
Because that's why me and my brother could polish off a whole bag, Mum.
Because they moved production overseas, Mum. And they had to put less biscuits in the bag will once again be full because that's why me and my brother could polish off a whole bag, mum, because they moved production overseas, mum,
and they had to put more biscuits,
less biscuits in the bag
so it had more air cushioning
because it travelled across the Tasman, mum.
Yeah.
So that's why we've eaten another bag of biscuits today, mum.
There wasn't many biscuits in there.
Because there's only like four in there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There was like not many in there, mum.
Yum.
That's such good cookies.
Four, mum.
How many bags of those did she buy you?
She stopped buying them.
Yeah.
She stopped buying them because we smashed whole bags.
Number four on the list of the top six signs your Arnott bookies have been made in New Zealand.
Again, shapes.
Yum.
They're bringing back some classic Kiwi flavours.
Roast lamb and kermit-flavoured.
Oh, yum.
Hungry.
Hungry flavoured shapes.
Yeah, nice.
Guess what?
No, I know. I don't want to talk about it because it's one of the most contentiousry flavoured shapes. Yeah, nice. Guess what? No, I know.
I don't want to talk about it
because it's one of the most contentious aspects of our friendship.
I cannot believe.
Hayley's favourite shape is...
Chicken crimpy.
You disappoint us so greatly.
Chicken is never the best flavoured anything apart from chicken.
No, it's not apart from...
Yeah.
No, but not even then.
It's not the best flavoured meat, is it?
No.
No, apart from shapes.
Chicken crimpy.
Boom.
The crimpy flavour comes through quite strong as well.
What is crimpy?
You know it when you taste it.
Okay, great.
It's half a crab, half a shrimp.
Right, okay.
Yeah, it's like scampi, but it's sort of budget.
Yeah, with a bit of scampi.
Yeah, right.
Number three on the list of the top six signs
your Arnabikis are being produced in New Zealand again.
Kruskets.
That's another one of theirs.
That's another favourite of mine.
Kruskets will once again be able to support 12 toppings at once,
which is how I like to eat my Krusket.
I always put too much faith in a Krusket.
Those Aussies always made a weak Krusket.
They made a weak, powdery Krusket.
I like just a really loaded up, first bite, the crusket's just like,
I'm out of here, mate.
I can't handle all this.
Boom, just turns to powder and everything just falls back onto the plate.
Once again, New Zealand cruskets will be sturdy and not shatter.
Yeah.
The minute you bite into them.
Number two on the list of the top six signs your bickies have been made in New Zealand.
Again, Tim Tams. Yeah. They'll once again be pronounced. Number two on the list of the top six signs your bickies have been made in New Zealand. Again, Tim Tams.
Yeah.
They'll once again be pronounced how they're supposed to be pronounced.
Tom Toms.
Tom Toms.
Tom Toms.
Tom Toms.
I've got a Tom Toms.
Wasn't there a thing that the plural of Tim Tams is Tim Tam?
Grab yourself a few Tim Tam.
The plural of Tim Tams is Tim Tam.
It's Tim Tammies.
Grab a couple of Tim Tammies. No, there was a thing. Plural of Tim Tams is Tim Tam. It's Tim Tammies. Grab a couple of Tim Tammies.
No, there was a thing.
Plural of Tim Tam.
Is Tim Tam.
Tim Tammies.
Hello, English.
It's Tim Tam.
It's not sheep.
Yeah.
Tim Tam I.
Grab yourself a few sheep.
Grab yourself a couple of Tim Tam.
Oh, no, no, I don't like that at all.
No, I don't like that.
Well, I know.
I don't like it either, but it is what it is.
Tim Tam.
And number one on the list of the top six signs your arnitbickies have been maddening
in New Zealand again, tiny titties.
They're doing, because you know how tiny titties do like different things?
Making it, baking it, shaking it.
Yeah.
So they're doing New Zealand expressions again.
The brow lift.
Yeah.
To the other tiny titties.
Like, sup.
Yeah.
The shaka. And the circle with your fingers that if your mate looks at it, you're allowed to punch them. The brow lift. Yep. To the other tiny teddies, like sup, the shaka,
and the circle with your fingers that if your mate looks
at it, you're allowed to punch them. Yeah, great.
He's got it down on his leg. Yes.
And the other teddy looks, and then you're allowed
to punch that teddy with your teeth.
And then swallow that teddy. That is today's top
sec.
Our segment of the show, Yummy Yummy,
we take a look at new food items, trends,
hitting New Zealand shelves.
Yeah, this one's tickling me very delicately.
Now, Vaughan knows this because in the very first lockdown,
Ursula Carlson and Vaughan and I were all messaging,
like, how are we all going?
How are we going?
Blah, blah, blah.
And I said, oh, we've run out of booze, so I'm doing an order.
And Ursula was like, say no more.
What do you want?
And Ursula's got, like, a chest in her house full of booze
because she gets gifted it all the time, but she's not a massive drinker.
Is this because, like, when the booze stores weren't open in lockdown?
No, it was like you couldn't go out, so you had to order online, so you had to wait. You could order it online, yeah, but the booze stores weren't open in lockdown? No, it was like you couldn't go out, so you had to order online, so you had to wait.
You could order it online, yeah,
but the booze stores weren't open
because they weren't considered essential.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right then.
But supermarkets were allowed to sell beer and wine.
Yeah.
Yes, yeah.
So she showed us this thing,
and then she had a video, didn't she,
of like all her stuff,
and was like, what do you guys want?
And I was like, I'll take that Bailey's.
And it was a Bailey's and I hadn't had Bailey's in years.
What are you, a mum?
Well, Aaron's family got me back into it because they love a Bailey's.
Again, not a big drinking family, but at the end of the night.
They'll have a Bailey's.
They'll have a Bailey's, maybe a bit of milk, bit of ice, love a Bailey's.
And when I lived with them, boy, did we hit the Bailey's.
Anyway, so Bailey's, have I said Baileys enough yet?
Hashtag not sponsored.
Yeah.
Baileys have released a new churros flavour.
A cinnamon churros flavoured Baileys.
Yeah.
What's yuck about this?
Obviously not sponsored.
When Vaughan's like, yeah.
They're always bringing out wacky flavours, isn't there? Like a
strawberry shortcake Bailey's at one stage or something.
It's too creamy.
No. Because whiskey's the base
booze of Bailey's, right? Love a whiskey.
Not even up for debate.
But the creaminess, it's the creaminess.
I don't do it. Not a fan.
It's a sweet cinnamon
sugar flavour.
Perfect for enjoying on ice as is,
in a chocolatini, like an espresso martini.
We'll do those.
We're going to do those on the weekend.
Or drizzled on ice cream.
Have we got you there with drizzled on ice cream?
No, I'd rather just have a whiskey in one hand and a glass
and then just a bowl of ice cream.
What's the Italian dessert?
Affogato.
But then that's not creamy.
Isn't affogato coffee liqueur?
Yeah, coffee liqueur.
It's not like milk.
Like a Kahlua, basically.
Which is weird.
I know it's weird.
I'm saying, ooh, yuck, it's too creamy,
and I'm literally going to add a bowl of ice cream.
No, I'm with you.
I'm not a huge Bailey's fan, but then I love churros.
Maybe that could be. Oh, my God, I love that. Well, churros' flavour is just cinnamon, though, right'm with you. I'm not a huge Baileys fan, but then I love churros. Maybe that could be.
Oh my God, I love that.
Well, churros flavour's just cinnamon though, right?
And sugar.
And sugar.
Do you know, last year, so before it hit the shelves,
so this is in Australia and it's coming to New Zealand shortly.
Before it hit the shelves, it entered into a number of competitions.
And then the 2021 San Francisco World Spirits Awards,
it won the gold medal for Spectacular Liquid.
I hope one day I get to win that award.
You are a spectacular liquid.
Could you imagine judging a booze award?
Like, you'd have to be over all the flavors, right?
And you have a little bit.
There was a thing on the news the other day
they were judging spirits. Was it last night on the news the other day they were judging the spirits.
Was it last night on the news?
There was like spirits judging awards
and they were like,
and I was like,
I'm going to spit and this chick was like.
I was like,
she's going to be ripped.
But you've got to get the throat.
You've got to get the burn on the throat.
You've got to see how smooth it is on the swallow.
Wait, do they put it in with a mixer?
No, it's straight.
Oh no.
No, come on.
You're not going to do a spirit awards and be like, you guys got to do your Coke Zero? Yeah, I'd be like, I'm out. Oh, no. Come on. You're not a Jew with your bloody cheap vodka. Go to the Spirit Awards and be like, you guys got it here, Coke Zero?
Yeah, I'd be like, I'm out of cranberry juice.
Oh, dear.
You've got to go straight.
You can't judge the Spirit Awards if you can't drink straight spirits.
No, but what if you get to the cheap spirits?
Well, that's where you're like, yuck.
Oh, that would be the worst job in the world.
I'm on the Bailey's website now, and I joined.
What was this one called that you took?
Churros.
Churros.
Cinnamon churros.
There's red velvet cupcake, Bailey's.
Ugh.
Yuck.
Bailey's pumpkin spice.
You know how people go, but nah, nah.
America, calm down.
Pumpkin spice flavoured things is OG.
Dairy-free almond flavoured.
Chocolate luxe.
Salted caramel.
Strawberries and cream. Or, strawberries and cream, espresso.
And last year they did an apple pie, like a short-term one apple pie.
Maybe that was an Aussie New Zealand in relation to their pumpkin pie.
Yucky.
Oh, it's all yum.
It's all yum.
Oh, well, here come the Bailey's drinkers.
Or Bailey's Brigade.
Hayley's Bailey's Bates.
Yes, Hayley's Bailey's Bates.
Do you know what?
I wouldn't put it past you to go on a holiday to Bali
and have some T-shirts.
Hailey's Bailey's Babes.
Hailey's Bailey's Bailey's Babes.
Everyone would be getting mojitos.
They'd be like, nah, mate.
Hailey's Bailey's Babes.
Hailey's got to have a little bit of Bailey's.
I can't imagine anything worse than being really hot
and having a Bailey's.
What's my Bailey's Babes saying?
Bailey's Babes are saying red velvet Ba Bailey's with coconut milk is absolutely divine.
Somebody else said try Bailey's with coconut milk.
No, because it's the cream in the Bailey's that I'm not huge.
The coconut milk might cut it down.
Well, I've had it with oat milk before.
Oat milk I've had it with.
All right.
Bailey's, Bailey's, Bailey's.
I love that you're being like,
Yeah, let's start a Facebook group.
Bailey's, Bailey's, Bailey's.
Head to Bali.
13 past seven.
Next on the show,
73% of Kiwis are changing their spending habits.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Well, some research has been done looking at New Zealanders.
I'd say looking at New Zealanders, what was the age here?
18 to 39-year-olds and what they're spending, what they're cutting back on.
And 73% of people are saying that the rising cost of living is having an impact on what they're spending
and that they are cutting back and changing.
Yeah, they're tightening the belt and changing the way that they spend money.
I read something yesterday that spooked me out.
I don't know if this pertains to a lot of 18 to 39-year-olds, given the housing market,
but about, you know, the dropping house prices,
that people are going to be, have borrowed more than their equity now because the value
of their house will go down.
And then they were going, what happens there?
You know how you have to have like 20%?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then that gets swiped up.
I don't think the value of your house is going to drop.
Well, they're saying it could.
They're saying it could.
But there's still such a lack of like supply and demand would say,
if there was an oversupply of housing, sure,
that's what it causes a housing bubble, right?
But there's still not enough houses for everybody.
Yeah.
And then with immigration back on the table, you know,
with COVID as the stage it is now,
people can immigrate to New Zealand again.
A lot of people will be leaving, but more people will be coming.
Yeah.
But also, of course, the increasing interest rates.
Like a lot of people have mortgages being renewed.
That's the thing that's going to get everybody.
That's going to be the old bout going.
Well, yeah.
So 85% of shoppers say that they've been affected by the cost of grocery items,
which is making them make changes.
So 31% of people are dropping their favourite brands for cheaper ones at the supermarket.
24% are shopping around to find the best deals.
And 30% are buying in bulk.
You love a bulk buy.
You know I love a bulk buy.
But then you've got to be in a position
to be able to afford to bulk buy as well
because not everybody can.
Yeah, if you're living paycheck to paycheck,
you can't sort of buy a bulk amount for the next month.
You can't buy like 80 kgs of flour.
Also, where the hell do you put it?
We've got a decent sized pantry
but it's still already full.
With our 1800
cans of beans. Under the sock drawer
there's cans and
that's prepper stuff.
In a pub.
Any space is used.
Also in the study
reducing social activities
like eating out as well as
finding ways to cut energy consumption
are what people are doing when they're cutting back from spending.
So the big ones, eating out 35%,
takeaways 29%,
followed by purchasing premium brain products, 27%.
Stop making faces while I do this.
Going to bars and pubs, 23%.
One of those doesn't actually have to cost too much at all.
It's free.
Just a bit of time.
A bit of time and effort.
Childish.
Childish.
Do you think it will be the rise again of the local?
Like the local pub?
Maybe.
Because do you know what I was thinking the other day?
Because if people can't afford to go to bars to drink,
but they still want to go out and dance,
do you think that'll bring back door charges?
No, because the first one that puts a door charge on
is not only going to lose patrons.
Nah, I reckon everyone will band together.
I reckon it'll be the return of the door charge
because people aren't going to be buying drinks.
That's just going to put more people off, though.
I don't know.
The people that were like on the...
But the thing is people are going to bars and pubs,
23% are saying we're cutting that down.
Wow.
You need to do the old, you know,
chuck a little bit of everything in a pump bottle on the bus on the way there.
Yeah, a rocket fuel.
Yeah, yeah.
A rocket fuel, that's it.
That's my point exactly.
You go to a club, you're not buying a drink there.
No.
Unless you're so boozed that you will.
Or you need a glass of water.
Yeah.
But also why, like, you can't put a door charge back on because why do people go out?
What is the number one goal of going out?
Getting hookups.
Maybe just go on Tinder.
Exactly.
So you can do that for free and you don't need to go out.
Exactly.
Like I'm saying,'s before when door charges
were popular there wasn't the Tinder.
Right. Also another way people are
reducing their spending
40% say that they'll be taking
shorter showers, turning lights off
where possible. Wow. That's really
like skimming isn't it? Slashing
energy bills just through cold washes
with the washing machine.
And yeah heating over winter that's going to be something
people cut back as well. That's sad though.
That's a couple of those...
Yeah. Well, yeah, but that's just how we
grew up. Just wear four jerseys
and thermal socks
in bed. That's what my kids last
night were rocking around in their summer pyjamas
and I was like, oh, they don't know how lucky they
are. It was
pretty much as soon as March when we were
a little bit of global warming in there, but
we lived in a house with zero
insulation. Like, you'd feel
that you sat in front of the fire to stay
warm and when you went to bed, you got
rugged to go to bed.
That's horrible.
Maybe some ideas there if you're looking
to save
some money. And also, people aren't going to ditch Netflix.
That was one thing to come out of this.
Well, then you're not going out, you've got to have some entertainment, right?
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Apparently, falling for fake news, misinformation,
sharing news articles that actually have no basis in the truth
isn't just something older people do.
Young people just as likely to fall for misinformation.
Wow.
I like that Facebook's doing that thing now where,
say you see a funny news article,
but you don't read it because you just see the headline.
Yes.
You send it to a friend, it'll say,
do you want to send this because you haven't read it?
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
This is an article that might need to be read
before shared.
But then you can just be like,
yes.
So they are just like, hey. And you're like, no.
And it's like, okay.
But yeah, apparently it's not an age thing.
I consider myself to be
young still at the ripe age of 32 and I
only follow
the truth.
Clark Gayford.
Do you know what I mean? He's in prison at the moment.
Is he in prison? I thought he was
on home detention. I thought he was on home detention
but then he committed another drug crime and now he's in prison.
Because I heard
just between us. You know when he was shifting
all the mics on because we just turned them off.
I'll whisper the mic won't hear me.
He doesn't pick it up. You know when he was shifting all the houses.
Yeah, he was shifting.
The walls were full of drugs.
Oh, were they?
I thought so.
And that's how we got the nanny out.
Okay, you know that people, when we've been sarcastic like this before,
people have believed us.
Yeah, there's horrible Clark Gayford rumours online.
Poor guy.
He must be so tired of it.
I think he's been laughing at it lately, hasn't he?
Yeah.
They've been poking fun.
There was a really, there's been two really poorly photoshopped
Clark Gayford photos.
One of them was literally him carrying a fish
and someone photoshopped an ankle bracelet on him.
And another one was they photoshopped his face
on someone walking with an ankle bracelet on.
And it wasn't even like the same body type.
This is the Prime Minister's fiancée.
Yeah.
I mean, you've just got to laugh at it, don't you?
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Like, what else can you do?
Was it like pre-COVID?
They came out and the police were like,
look, we're the police, we can tell you nothing.
Yeah.
Nothing's happening.
He's not even on a radar, not nothing, not anybody.
He shouldn't move in houses.
Yeah.
Give the guy a break.
Looking after his daughter.
Yeah.
And since then, they're just like, oh, we're not going to deal with that again.
So whether it's a Clark Gayford rumor or not, young people and old people both likely to fall for this.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, young people are buying into it as much as older people.
So I thought I would hit you guys with some headlines and you can tell me if you think it's real news or
fake news.
Do you want to get a 60-year-old for this?
Or a 75-year-old? I think we've got enough
age representation.
What, are you 52 now?
No, actually, you
could be in your 60s because
COVID can age the brain up to 20 years.
I saw that!
I saw that! So you could be in your 40s but have the brain of to 20 years. I saw that. I saw that.
So you could be in your 40s but have the brain of a 60-year-old post-COVID.
I think that's if you get it quite extreme.
And I was mild.
You have been a bit of a bloody thicky recently though, hasn't he?
The way he talks, I'm like, what are you saying?
Dope.
All right.
News headlines.
All right, faking news.
Okay.
Alligator breaks into Florida family's garage,
starts chugging Diet Cokes.
True or faking news?
I'm going to say, I'm going to go with true because it's Florida.
I'm going to go with faking news because it's little silly arms
couldn't get the caps off the Cokes.
It would just chomp into the cokes.
No, he's an elegant alligator.
It's true.
Just bit into the cans.
Bit into cans.
See my 62-year-old COVID brain.
Yeah, bit my 32-year-old non-COVID
brain. Yeah. Alright.
Okay.
Satanic Temple requests a flag raising
in Boston City Hall after Supreme Court rules city violated free speech rights and refusing to fly a Christian flag. True
It is true
Yeah
Yeah, absolutely
America
Oh, America
True Oh, America. Baltimore City student misses 140 school days,

True.
False.
It's true.
Oh, damn.
True.
All these things are true.
Second barrel found at Lake Mead.
Oh, my God.
That was a wild story.
A second one?
Fill us in on the first barrel
So they found this because of global warming
And the fact that the dam or lake
Is so low
It revealed a body
In a barrel
Had it been concreted in?
It had been weighed down and chucked in
And they assumed it was the deep part
But the dam's so low
The dam causing Lake Mead,
that, yeah, they exposed this barrel and it's all neat.
And it's from the 80s.
They found, like, an ID and a belt and wallet.
Yeah.
But a second one?
Second barrel found at Lake Mead.
Nothing inside.
Oh, true.
I'm going to say false.
There was something inside.
No, there was nothing inside.
It was the same barrel.
They were in the same time and everything.
I'm giving you that muzzle for being wrong all this time.
Yeah, that's fair.
And finally, the Cannes Film Festival coming to Fortnite.
I'm going to say correct.
I'm going to say it's false.
It's true.
No, it's true.
You can be in-game in Fortnite watching Cannes Film Festival films.
Jeepers.
You get concerts in there and stuff.
Fortnite.
Yeah, there's been concerts in-game of various artists around these massive events.
Well, there you go.
I guess I'm the thicky.
You did fall for it.
Are you sure you didn't get COVID and age your brain 20 years?
I don't know.
Maybe.
Maybe I've had a very gentle COVID.
Apart from the misinformation part of your brain. Massive brain
shrinkage. Yeah.
Well,
a couple
stayed at a
Airbnb.
And the woman who
had organised the accommodation, the girl,
they left the Airbnb, had a lovely time.
Obviously, they had a very lovely time.
She took to Twitter to share her experience
because she received a text from the Airbnb host
that was a photo of something that she'd left behind in the bed.
Oh, did they not clean?
You know when you get an Airbnb
and they charge you like a $50 cleaning fee
and then they ask you to clean the whole house, spick and span.
Yeah, like wash the dishes, take out the rubbish.
You're like, what's the cleaning fee for?
Yeah.
Strip the bed.
Well, no, obviously they did none of that because the bed is still very much unmade.
It is quite a large adult fun toy that they've left behind.
Oh, no.
Oh, me, oh, my.
Oh, me, oh, my.
And the text was just, whoop, the photo of the thing.
Whoop.
Are you close by?
Whoop.
Would you like me to put it outside on the bench?
Then you can swing by and grab it.
Yeah, that's nice of them, though.
Put it outside.
In a bag?
So they don't have to make eye contact with them again.
In a bag?
After.
I'd put it under a towel.
I'd block the number and just never speak to them again
Absolutely mortifying
I would never ever go back and retrieve it
I actually don't know if they did
But then a lot of them are quite expensive
These adult fun toys
Could you imagine leaving behind something that's worth a couple of hundred dollars
If it wasn't an adult fun toy you'd probably want to get it back
Like imagine you leave your noise-cancelling headphones.
Oh, absolutely.
Or your AirPods.
Oh, you're talking like a $200.
Your phone charger, even phone chargers.
You'd go back, right?
Yeah.
Someone shared, I will share this, even though it's not relevant.
A person shared on the comments, the comments have been blowing up,
people going, I wouldn't, I'd never go back.
Someone said, I've had a loudly vibrating bag
at baggage claim three times that they've had to pull the bag and go something's in this bag
no and it's and it's been a fun toy right uh anyway uh mortifying for this woman but
who knows maybe she went and got it not mortifying on you. I think people that run Airbnbs or like people that room keeping,
housekeeping, that clean rooms, hotel and motel,
they would find so much stuff.
I always imagine as well like undies in the bed.
You know when you kick off your undies and they hang around the bottom of the sheets?
Oh, yeah, they go in the bottom of the bed, yeah.
Gather about the feet.
Why are you kicking off your undies when you're already in bed?
I don't know.
Maybe something's happening and I don't need to wear them anymore.
What?
But you're right.
They do.
They get stuck.
I'm getting a hot droid.
You're getting a hot, right.
So you're kicking off.
Yeah, fair enough.
Get more skin exposure.
They get stuck in the bottom.
And then when you go to do your final checks, you flip back the bed.
You might not see them.
Yeah.
So you'd be making the bed and they have all sorts of undies in the bottom.
People would leave stuff in the fridge. People would leave stuff in the fridge.
They'd leave stuff in the drawer.
All sorts.
I don't know who the monsters are
that go to a motel or a hotel
for like a couple of nights
and put all their stuff in the drawers.
Yeah, stop it.
That's weird.
Like leave it in your bag.
Leave it in your suitcase.
That's weird.
Anyway, I wanted to ask everyone
what have you left behind
at your accommodation?
Or are we on the flip side?
If you run an Airbnb
If you work an Airbnb,
or you clean at a hotel or a motel,
what have you found left behind in the room?
This is reminding me that I,
if I search in my phone, Dunedin,
I was down in Dunedin for Marching Nationals,
and I sat at a hotel,
and I looked in the side drawer,
like went to go put something in the side drawer,
and there I found, here's the photo,
a, like a little, hang on, opening the drawer.
She's just opening the drawer.
It's an enema.
An enema.
An unpackaged,
direct for use, for rectal use,
as directed by your doctor, an enema.
And someone had like Unpackaged it
Clearly used it
To insert whatever
You use an enema for
Popped it in the side drawer
And then housekeeping
Just hadn't
Cleared it
You wouldn't check the drawers
Of your housekeeping
Would you?
Yes
I think you would
It'd just be part of it
You'd flick them all open
I'd be in a rush
Make sure there was nothing
Maybe the cleaner saw it
And was just like,
yeah, not paid enough.
Shut it again.
All right, well, we want to take your calls now. 0800 DALZATM is the number.
You can text as well.
9696.
What did you leave behind at the accommodation?
Or what did you find?
Cleaning up.
We're talking about what you might have left behind
at your accommodation after a woman was contacted
by an Airbnb.
She stayed at saying, do you want to pick this up?
Yeah.
And this being her fun time, fun time, personal toy.
Also, if you've ever had to clean up like Airbnbs or hotels.
Yeah, what have you discovered?
Yeah.
Aileen Juensis.
Good morning, Aileen.
Hi.
What now?
Have you left something behind or found it?
I have left something behind.
What did you leave?
So I own an adult toy store called Top Door Delights
and we do parties.
And so I went to Tauranga to do a hen's night for somebody.
Yep.
And I split my products in half before I went to do the party
because I didn't need some of them and tucked them away
in a closet for safekeeping in case somebody cleaned
the room while I was out.
And then the safekeeping was too much of safekeeping because I forgot to take them.
And I left a whole bag of adult happy toys.
Imagine finding that and obviously not knowing that you work in this industry and that's
why you have a bag full of them.
That's exactly what I thought.
Oh, my.
And so how did you just cut your losses or did you go back and say,
hey, I need that bag of toys?
Well, I didn't realise.
I live in Auckland, so I didn't realise while I was still in Tauranga,
so I had to call him once I got home.
And I was kind of like, oh, hey, I think I left something behind.
I think I left a bag
in the closet.
And he was really angry
straight away.
And he said,
no, there was nothing there
and then hung up on me.
Whoa!
Wow, did he sound like
he was vibrating?
No.
No, but his wife certainly
has had a headache
for the last few weeks.
She's had absolutely
no need for him.
Eileen, thanks for your call.
Keep your texts coming in.
9696 0800 dials it in.
What did you leave behind at an ACOM?
Or what did you find while cleaning it up?
All right, get to more of those next.
Talking about what you might have left at an accommodation,
Airbnb, a hotel, or if perhaps you work at a hotel,
what you might have found,
a woman left behind her little play toy
and was texted by her Airbnb host to come and fetch it.
I would have written that off.
Yeah.
Sarah, did you leave something behind in an accommodation?
No, we found something.
Oh, no.
What did you find?
So me and my family were staying at a hotel in Auckland
and we got back to the room after dinner and we're like, oh,
something stinks.
And we thought someone had bombed the toilet
or something. But we were trying to find
where the smell was coming from and we opened up
one of the drawers and there was
a poopy nappy in the drawer.
Who puts a poopy nappy
in the drawer in the first place?
An a-hole.
But my mum went in
and complained
because it actually reeked
and we got an upgrade
to the penthouse suite
so it wasn't
totally okay.
Okay, everybody,
this is what we do
from now on.
We take a little nap.
We buy a nap
and we do a dump on it
and we put it in the drawer
and we're like,
who left this in the drawer
to get an upgrade?
How was the penthouse?
What was life like
up in the penthouse?
Oh, it was pretty good.
Oh, yeah, worth it.
Yeah, good stuff.
Sarah, thanks for your call.
Shania, you found something cleaning up
or you left something behind?
Yeah, we found something.
Oh, okay.
What did you find?
So we found $6,000 inside of a butter container in the fridge.
That's drug money, right?
Inside a butter container? Yeah, look What? That's drug money, right? Inside a butter container?
Yeah, look, I'm not going to lie.
Like, the guests, my parents own an accommodation company,
so the guests were real dodgy.
Like, we would find light bulbs in the side tables of the drawers
and, like, you know, stuff, illegal stuff.
So it was a real dodgy situation, but it was, like, a really great clean.
Yeah, I bet it was.
That's a good hourly rate.
But aren't you worried they're going to come back for this money if they're
dodgy?
Well, we had to report it to the police anyway because
of the stuff that we found.
And so it all just went to them.
But like, you know, in a
dream scenario, that would have been, you know.
Oh, so you never got it back?
Sorry? You never got it back?
No, no, no.
Oh, mind you, proceeds of crime. Sorry? You never got it back? Because isn't it a fake? No, no, no. Hold on.
Oh, mind you, proceeds of crime, eh?
Yeah, something like that, yeah.
Goodness.
Thank you.
Some more messages in.
Someone said, I was a cleaner at a hotel room.
I found all sorts.
Most interesting would be a diary from jail.
Oh, cool.
Yeah, that'd be good reading.
Would you rather be a cleaner for an. Oh, cool. That'd be good reading. Would you rather be
a cleaner for an Airbnb
where you check the guests in because it's your
place or a cleaner at a hotel
where you don't see the guests? Because when you go
in, they're not there. Cleaner where you don't
see the guests. You don't want to get too
close. You don't want to know too much. No.
Because do you think it's worse
when you know what they've been up to if you know what they look like?
Yeah. Yeah.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
You've got to put a face to the action.
My in-laws run an accommodation in Raglan,
and they said that the most memorable people that stayed were the people that left behind their plastic sheets
and their elbow-length rubber gloves.
No, but they could have one kidney like you,
need to wee all the time.
Oh, yeah, yeah, chronic bed wetter.
Okay, well, that explains the plastic sheet.
What about the rubber gloves?
So because you don't want to get dirty cleaning up the sheets?
Yeah, yeah, so I go right up to the bows.
Right.
Yeah.
Right to the bows while cleaning the sheets.
Right to the bow.
I got drunk, stayed at a motel in the town we lived in.
Next day, our friend saw us and told us her nana, who was the cleaner,
found pillows wedged between the headboard
and the wall in our room.
Yeah, but it could have been a wonky headboard.
Like you just turn over and it goes to the bank.
And that's just called being courteous to the people
in the room next to you.
They don't want to be hearing a headboard dangling on a wall.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
When I was working as a housekeeper, I found a condom
and I was like, yuck, because I could see the tied off end.
So I've got gloves on, pulled it out, full of cash.
Oh, okay.
Why?
Because it's been up the bum.
Oh, you really?
Do you reckon?
Why would you want cash?
Like lots of cash.
Just get a wallet, you know?
Yeah, take a deep breath.
Get a wallet.
Have you heard of wallets?
Imagine being at the petrol station and you're like,
how much is that?
They're like 80 bucks.
You're like, all right, hold on.
I've got my flybys card in here too.
Flicking through the notes and it's 10, 20, 30.
Get it out.
Far out.
I found I was, yuck.
I'm doing my pants back up.
I took my pants off.
I went through the wholeending to fish money out
I went full method
I was staying somewhere for work
I found a drawer full of
All sorts of items of a sexual nature
Okay
I told admin and housekeeping
And they said actually
Who he checked in with is still staying here
So I'll get them to come up and collect it
I was like I don't want to be here, but it was too late.
They were on their way.
And it was just one of his male workmates who was just like,
what has he left behind?
Is it work related?
And they were just like, mm.
He was like, oh my God.
Wow.
He took the whole.
Made that awkward.
Took the whole shopping list on the work trip.
Why not?
Good Lord.
Man, I don't have any questions for Pet.
I've just been absolutely distracted by a gift I just received.
From the travelling merchant.
From the travelling merchant.
Some Dungeons and Dragons dice.
Stop talking about your nudge.
So sexy.
It's very sexy stuff.
Harry, we welcome Kenneth.
Good morning, Kenneth.
Kenneth!
Hey, Kenneth, quick question.
What's the frequency?
1991 song reference from R.E.M.
Wow.
Kenny!
That was before I was born, so.
Do people still say that to you, Kenneth?
No.
No, I've never heard that before.
Really?
Good.
That just shows how out of touch you are.
You're familiar with the song, though?
How out of touch you are.
Familiar with the song, Kenneth?
I know of R.E.M.
I'm not familiar with the song, though.
We could play it in the background.
It's more of a night swimming.
Wasn't breaking the canapet drop. I'm not familiar with the song, though. We could play it in the background. It's more of a night swimming. It's actually 1994 it was released.
I've got to hear if we want to play it in the background.
Sure.
Okay, we'll have that in the background.
Oh, yeah, now I'm feeling it.
I'm in the vibe.
He's got to do whatever he needs to get a spirit.
Who names a...
Oh, that could be one of my questions.
Is this one of your questions?
Nah.
There's this whole song about you, Kenneth.
Yeah, I can't believe you're not familiar with this song.
It's your namesake.
Yeah.
Okay, what's your first question for Kenneth?
How old is your mum?
She is 63.
Age. Age.
Okay.
And you weren't born in 1991?
1994?
I was born in 94, actually, not 91.
Well, yes, this song came out.
You're probably named after this song.
I reckon you might have been, like, it might have.
Oh, yeah, they were having a hump to this song.
And Kenneth was born.
Old, old Linda. Linda was. Are you feeling a Linda? I'm getting a Linda. Oh, yeah. They were having a hump to this song. Kenneth was born. Old Linda.
Linda was.
Are you feeling a Linda?
I'm getting a Linda.
Yeah, okay.
I'm getting a.
Oh, yeah.
Don't tell me.
It just felt like you were about to tell me that I was wrong.
Keep quiet, Kenneth.
This is all just.
We save it till the end.
This is Vaughn's process.
He's got to say some names out loud.
Hayley and I might recommend some names.
We like to chime in every now and then.
Patsy?
I would put a Patsy because my mum is 61
and she had a brother called Kenneth.
Oh, okay.
Did she?
Same vintage.
Okay.
I'm feeling names like Sharon.
Yeah, put a Lorraine in there.
My mum's sister.
But then do you think it's more likely that someone with a traditional name
like, you know, Anna or Christine might go a bit out there with a Kenneth?
I don't think Kenneth would have been out.
Oh, maybe the 90s Kenneth would have been out there.
I mean, you wouldn't call a kid Kenneth these days.
There's no baby Kenneth now, is there?
Do you go by Kenneth or Kenny?
I actually go by all three. Depends on the person. Ken, Kenny and Kenneth. What would you go by Kenneth or Kenny? I actually go by
all three.
Depends on the person.
Ken, Kenny and Kenneth.
What would you like
us to call you?
Let's go with Kenny.
Do people ever
like push you over
and go,
oh my God,
I kill Kenny.
That was legit
my joke with my
friend group
my whole life
growing up.
That is your whole life
growing up.
I even have
the orange jacket.
Just like when you pull a tape
and you're like...
Exactly.
Oh my god.
I mean, I hope it's
many, many years away, but when you die,
I hope the doctor does say,
Oh my god, I'm cute kitty.
I have already asked that when I get
buried, I get buried in that orange jacket.
I'm going to get buried in a cute kitty.
You bastards.
Do they still do that on South Park?
I don't know.
I haven't watched in years.
Man, classic stuff.
I've been very distracted.
What was Cartman's mum's name on South Park?
What is one of all the mums'ums All of the mums names on South Park
Leanne
Leanne
Can you tell me what
Kenny's mum
Kenny's mum was called
Carol
Carol
Which is also my mum's other sister's name
Okay so I'm feeling
She's got a strong connection to the
That's got to be your vintage
Your Carol
Your Carol
Your Carol, your Leanne
Carol is your kind of anchor
Yeah
Your Susans your Leanne. Carol is your kind of anchor. Yeah. Your Susans.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because how old's Dame Susan Devoy now?
Can you put a Susie in there, just to clarify?
I put a Susan.
Do you want to put a Susie after the Susan?
Yeah, because not all Susies are Susans.
Dame Susan Devoy is 58.
So that's your vintage.
That's possible, yeah.
Susan. She's even five years older than that vintage.
Yeah.
How many questions have I asked?
I want to say one.
One?
Does your mum play
any games? Like if she was
to crank out a board game, are you a board
game family? Are you a game family?
Does she play cards like a Yahtzee?
Maybe she plays squash.
Yeah. So there's
two main games that she plays and they're both
card games. Okay. One
is 500. Oh yeah, I love
the 500. Oh my god, yes. Yeah, okay.
And the other one is Phase 10. Phase
10. I've seen Phase 10 but I
haven't played Phase 10. I haven't dabbled.
Okay, games.
Okay. She's games. Okay.
She's a card player.
Is that kind of sparking some of your game and delving into?
Well, I've been taught so many.
My nan's family are like Irish card sharks.
And they tried to teach me when I was a kid.
But I've never been good at games, like card games,
especially like remembering the rules.
Right.
Like I can barely grasp Texas Hold'em poker, and that's it for me.
Right.
Blackjack I kind of understand.
Right.
But I'm not like a card.
It's pretty easy, Texas Hold'em poker.
You've got to just scratch a little of the cards
and get three of the same to win the prize money.
I just scratch the barcode at the bottom and scan it on my phone straight away.
I don't even scratch.
Yeah, okay.
So, okay, there's that.
What's mum's go-to pudding if she was making a pudding?
Oh, okay.
That would be a sticky date.
Oh!
Who loves a sticky date pudding?
Don't you know Vaughan?
I love a sticky date pudding.
So Vaughan's on the list.
You never know.
Who loves a sticky date?
I mean, Patsy does, but but... Well she's got Patsy
on the list don't we?
Sticky date.
Okay sticky date.
What about a stiff sticky
stiff? I think that's too young but I'm trying.
It could be a stiff.
Sticky stiff.
Hey if it's not your mum there's a sticky stiff
out there that's somebody's mum.
Yep. I'm if it's not your mum, there's a Sticky Steph out there that's somebody's mum. Yep.
I'm gathering it's not Steph, but it's still on the list.
It's still on the list.
What about...
Date.
Because a Sticky Date pudding is very similar to a steamed pudding.
Yeah, it is.
I'd say it is.
Fruity, dark.
Yeah.
Oozy.
Certainly moist.
Certainly moist.
Oh, no one likes a dry Sticky Date.
If it's dry, I'm not interested.
No.
It's kind of trash.
You've got to have more butter or whatever.
I don't know.
What gives it its moisture?
The steam itself?
The dates?
Yeah.
The dates?
It could be the dates.
Yeah, the dates.
Dorothy with the dates.
Deirdre with the dates.
Yeah, okay.
God, I want this for you, Kenny, so bad.
Yeah, so do I.
I like Ken. Okay. What kind of car does want this for you, Kenny, so bad Yeah, so do I, I like Ken
Okay, what kind of car does your mum drive there, Kenny?
She drives a Demio
Like, put Bev on the list
Bev's there
Although Bev has corrected you many times
It's a Mazda 2 she drives, but same badge
Yeah, same, same
Just slightly rebadged for the market
Okay, so she's an economical mum
She's a very economical mum.
Everything about this woman is said economically so far.
Can we put a June on there?
A June?
A June?
I reckon we need to put a...
Have you got a Helen on?
Have you got some traditional names?
Yeah, I don't have a Helen.
Oh, Helen loves her Demio.
Yeah.
I've never asked before,
am I allowed to ask the family's surname for my final question?
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
You're not the boss around here.
To me, that doesn't...
Am I allowed to ask the surname?
Are you happy to hear the family?
It'll be her marital name perhaps as well.
Do you want the maiden name?
Or do you want her name that is now?
No, I want the maiden name.
Oh, no.
If I get it, the other name might help with the dad.
Oh, yeah, that's true.
So we're going maiden name?
You've only ever known her by her married name, eh?
Like your parents were married when you were born?
No, actually, I'm a bastard.
I'm a bastard too.
Oh, okay.
You're a couple of bastards.
Yeah, well, they tried to un-bastard, but it was too late.
The damage was done.
Exactly.
You can't go back once it's done.
You can't go back.
Kenny Snow.
Kenny Snow, yeah.
Okay.
I reckon go the maiden name because her parents would have thought.

I think I had a Rebecca.
No, I didn't.
Rebecca.
She could have been a pioneer of her time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Could have been a field leader.
First Rebecca in New Zealand.
Okay, are you happy with...
Jenny Cave.
Jenny Cave.
Oh, sometimes I'm happy with Jenny Cave.
What?
Okay.
Get a stickle by this.

She tried to teach me 500.
And there's another game that's similar.
Rummy Cub.
Wait, are we related?
Maybe.
Oh, my God, you could be.
Well, no, because her maiden name wasn't Cave.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that doesn't work, then.
Kenny, great news.
You've won $100, but...
Bonus round.
While you're on the phone,
I'll have a go at guessing your dad's name.
I think Auntie Pat's 90, by the way.
It might be where I think we're sitting on the cusp of Auntie Pat's birthday.
Yeah, right.
She's 90.
Okay, well, that's for another time, Vaughn.
Kenny now.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's not because I'm getting into the mindset.
Well, what was Pat's?
Her first husband's name was Jim.
Oh, yeah.
I'd never met Uncle Jim.
He died before I was born, but then she's had a few boyfriends since.
Yeah, Auntie Pat.
Has she?
Oh, yeah.
Sounds like my mum.
Oh, really?
Okay.
All right.
So that makes me feel like Kenny's mum and dad aren't together anymore.
Do you?
Because he's got the tone in his voice.
He sounds like my mum when I said the first husband.
No, I don't think he's got the tone of a child. I think my dad was sounds like my mum when I said the first husband. No, I don't think
he's the tone of a child
of divorce.
Who said my dad
was the first husband?
Your dad was the first husband.
Okay.
No, I said who says
my dad was the first husband?
Because yeah,
63 and you were born in 94.
I dare say it.
So you're like,
oh no, you're not 30 yet.
What were you going to say?
I dare say a Craig
because I'm a Patsy and Craig mum and dad
And Craig is the second husband of Patsy
There's so many correlations
Patricia and Craig
Pat
Maybe me and Kenny are related
Might be the same person
Kenny, Craig, different dimensions
Alright well you only get one guess Vaughn
Kenny also feels like a family name All right, well, you only get one guess, Vaughan.
Kenny also feels like a family name.
You know, like it might have been passed down through the... Oh, it could be Kenneth.
He could be a Kenneth Jr.
He could be a KJ.
No.
No, you're not feeling KJ vibes.
No, because he said, when we said, what do you go by?
He said all three, Ken, Kenny and Kenneth.
Oh, if it said KJ, wouldn't have we have just absolutely opened the case earlier in the piece?
Dave?
Dave and Patricia. Dave and Patricia. Dave? Dave and Patricia.
Dave and Patricia goes well.
Dave and Pat.
Pat and Dave.
Pat and Dave.
Pat and Dave are coming over and she's bringing her sticky date pod.
Do you think they'll bring the Demio or the BT50?
Well, they are a Mazda family.
I'm not exactly sure which Mazda they're going to bring.
Dave's a big boy.
It doesn't fit in the Demio.
No, no.
So they'll bring the BT50 because they're going to bring the kids as well.
And it's cab and a half.
I've got a good vibe on Dave.
Do you?
Are you locking in Dave?
Let's lock in Dave.
Kenny, what's your dad's name?
My dad's name is Paul.
Paul.
What is Paul?
Paul.
Paul and Pat.
Pat and Paul.
Pat and Paul.
All right, well, Kenny,
unfortunately you missed out on that $100,
but $100 because Vaughan did guess your mum's name.
You're a winner.
Congratulations.
You guys are absolutely awesome.
Thank you guys so much.
You're awesome, Kenny.
Kenny, you're great.
You're awesome.
Please invite us to your funeral, whenever that is.
Yeah, so we can wear orange hoodies.
We'll dress up as the other three.
Oh, yeah, I'm going to wear a little red jacket.
Oh, I'll be yellow and blue back.
I'm not Cartman. I'm not Cartman.
I'll be Cartman.
Just because you want to say.
That's not my thing.
All right, thanks, Kenny.
What a hoot.
All right.
Play.
ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Hey, so last night, a bit of a chilly night,
I thought I'd treat myself to a wee bath.
We've got a very deep, very short bath.
Okay.
And we're getting rid of it in our bathroom renovation.
No room.
Got to go.
So I'm trying to make the most of it.
Like plaster.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not an iron claw foot or whatever it is.
Cast iron or anything like that.
Not fancy.
I want one of those for soups.
Soups?
You want to make a giant soup?
A cast iron bath to make soups.
Every bath is a soup.
You know, but you've got to light a fire under it,
a plastic one won't last,
but if I had a cast iron bath...
I think what you're describing is a great big melting pot,
big enough to take the world and all it's got.
And then some other questionable lyrics.
Stir it for a hundred years or more.
Coffee coloured people by the shore.
Far out.
But yeah, then you get further into that song
and there's a couple of very problematic lines
that I mean were said with the best intention,
but no, didn't age well.
Oh, good for them.
Anyway, I thought I'll have a little bath.
And then I did make the mistake of not putting bubbles in it
because I needed to wash my hair because we're filming tonight.
And I was like, I won't put bubbles in it
because otherwise my hair will get all soapy.
So I'm going straight water,
which means you've really got to confront your own physicality
because you're just lying there.
And because it's quite a short bath,
I'm sort of all cramped up and folded in half.
So I've got baps, flaps everywhere.
Everywhere.
Everything's out and about.
When you're in the bath, how much
time do you spend
surveying the
situation? The entire time.
You know how the water warps it
and so you're sort of looking at it going like
what's happening there with my butt?
Or like it's sort of all looking a bit funny.
And then you sort of raise your hips.
Push it out of the water.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you're like, oh, damn it.
That's not actually your genie situation.
Yeah, like the refraction, I believe it is,
of the water makes sometimes you look more endowed than you are.
And you're like, oh, yeah.
And you pop it out and you're like, no.
Drag it back into the water.
Yeah.
Anyway, so I got into this bath.
I was very confronted by the baps and the bits.
And so I hopped out quickly and I thought the only thing that's going to make this bath bearable,
this bubbleless bath bearable, is a glass of wine.
So I went into the fridge and we had a little bit of nice wine left and I poured it.
Wait, so you made back into a bath?
Yeah, Aaron was busy.
I did try to call. Gasol!
I kept yelling and he didn't. Ding, ding,
ding, ding. Yeah, ding, ding, ding. Yeah, right.
Nothing. Couldn't even lure him in to
have a look at the bat while I was in the bath.
He wasn't interested.
So I scuttled out towel, got my little
wine glass, emptied what was left
of the salve in the fridge
into the glass and went back into the bath, got back
in, felt so nice. You know sometimes you've got to get out
to get back in. Yeah, yeah, okay.
And then I had a little sippy-doo, lovely,
Man O' War, Waiheke Island.
A lovely salve. Pretty fancy. And then I put
it on the little ledge because it's got wide ledges
and then I went to like go move
to get a product down the end and I knocked it
into the bath water
which is now bathwater.
Sauvignon.
Sauvignon Blanc.
Yeah.
Sprout soup.
Body Blanc.
Yeah.
Body Blanc.
It's sprout soup.
And I was like, hmm, what to do, what to do.
Is that going to affect the pH of?
I don't know.
The pH of a lady is very delicate.
Yeah, but that's what I'm saying.
I guess time will tell.
I mean, so far, and I'm happy to tell the nation, so far so good.
No pH balance imbalance in sight.
But yeah, I had a wine bath instead.
So how long, you didn't get out and have a shower?
I'm just stinking my, I'm just smelling my skin to see if I've got any Blanc left.
Like a slightly sour.
How long did you stay in the
Sav for? I stayed in the
Sav soup for a good 40 minutes.
I was watching a documentary
about Jane
Rowe of Roe v. Wade.
Because America at the moment
is going to
legalise
abortions.
And so I was watching the origin of the Roe v. Wade bill that was passed.
Soaking in salve.
Soaking in a Sauvignon Blanc.
Yeah.
I think it seeped in as well.
I still had the benefits of the wine.
Body drunk.
Just went in a different way.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
A couple of days ago, I did have a go at Vaughan
for being a follower in the song and not picking his own note.
I can't pick my own note.
I can't.
If I just hear it.
This made me a very strong contender for SingStar.
Yeah, right.
Because I can hear something and follow along.
I can't create my own path.
You're fine following along.
Just don't try to be.
I think you're trying too much now.
Yeah.
Okay.
Today's fact of the day.
In 1908, a dog was a hero.
Let me read you this excerpt.
Excerpt.
Excerpt.
Excerpt. Oh, now I'm thinking too much about that word. Excerpt. Because I always just used to say excerpt excerpt excerpt
oh now I'm thinking
too much about that word
excerpt
because I always
just used to say
excerpt
but it's not
it's excerpt
yeah
from the New York Times
was that your gun noise
at school
was that your gun noise
at school
oh okay somebody had an AK-47 at school yeah Oh, okay.
God, somebody had an AK-47 at school.
Yeah, what a lucky boy.
A dog was employed auxiliary for the patrol of lonely beats
in the outskirts of Paris.
This is a 1908.
They spoke very weird English.
A good story is now doing the rounds
concerning a splendid Newfoundland,
which was a candidate on one of the recent field trials.
This dog is the property of a man
who lives on the banks of the Seine,
which is just outside of Paris.
Which, I mean, it flows through Paris,
but he lives just outside of Paris.
Some time ago, a child was playing on the riverbank
and it fell into the water He blows through Paris, but he lives just outside of Paris. Some time ago, a child was playing on the riverbank,
and it fell into the water and was in immediate danger of being drowned.
The dog, hearing the cries and the splashing, leaped over a hedge,
ran down the bank, and plunged into the stream just in time to rescue the victim.
Oh, wow.
What a good boy.
Naturally, the brave animal was made much of, and the father of the child, by way of recompense, presented the dog
with a succulent beefsteak.
Two days later, another
child fell into the water while playing and was rescued
by the dog. The lifesaver received the same
pats, caresses and another beefsteak.
Up to this point,
nothing extraordinary.
But rescues became more and more frequent.
It got to the point where hardly a day passed
but that some unfortunate infant was brought safely to the bank by the dog
after an involuntary bath.
It began to be suspected that the neighbourhood was haunted
by a mysterious criminal and a special watch was inaugurated.
Then the truth came out.
It was the dog himself that was the guilty one.
Whenever he saw a child playing on the edge of the stream
He promptly knocked them into the water
Then nonetheless promptly jumped in and dragged it to safety
Because he had established for himself a profitable source of revenue of beef steaks
He knew that if he drowned a kid and saved her
Yes
He'd get a wee steak
He'd get a steak and a pat
And he loved a steak and a pat.
And probably a, you're a good boy.
You're so good.
Yeah.
Like Newfoundland's a mass of dogs too.
So you can imagine this thing just being like,
and the kid's like, ah, splash.
And he's like, oh no.
Was Scooby-Doo in Newfoundland?
Scooby-Doo was a Great Dane.
Oh, that's right.
Oh, they are big boys.
Yeah, very, very cute.
Oh, my gosh.
What a smart one as well.
But I guess that's just like conditioning, right?
That's how you condition a dog to do anything, with treats.
And so he's like, the kid falls in, I get a treat.
This kid falls in if I bump him in.
Vis-a-vis, I bump him in.
Pull him out.
Pull him out.
Get a beefsteak treat.
So today's fact of the day is
in France in 1908
a dog cracked
the system and was pushing kids
into a river to rescue them and being rewarded
with steaks.
Fact of the day, day, day,
day, day.
Yeah. If you've been living under a rock
The Met Gala happened on
Monday?
Tuesday?
Sunday their time
Monday our time
And a lot of great looks
Kim K is often being called
She won the Met they're saying
Yeah She looked incredible I mean she pulled off Like a surprise A surprise Kim K is often being called, she won the Met, they're saying. Yeah.
She looked incredible.
I mean, she pulled off like a surprise.
A surprise.
A surprise surprise.
One surprise, she had bright blonde hair and it was her own hair,
so she'd done that again.
And the other surprise was she was wearing the dress that Marilyn Monroe wore
when she sang Happy Birthday to the President.
So like the actual dress.
I'm really surprised they even let her do that.
You'd think it would be in a hard rock cafe somewhere.
You watch the, no, it's in Ripley's Believe It or Not.
Ripley's Believe It or Not, not a hard rock cafe.
Next to a guy from the Eagles guitar.
Yeah, yeah, he played it once and didn't like it,
but that's enough to be in a frame at the hard rock cafe.
There's some great stuff there.
Guy from Hooverstank, his guitar.
The guy from Hoobastank.
You love Hoobastank.
I love Hoobastank. They are the reason
that you live.
Number one band. Their song, The Reason,
is my reason. Is that that
tattoo across your back? Is that what that says?
Yeah, that says Hoobastank. Vaughan's wedding song was
The Reason, Hoobastank. Wow.
I got the tattoo at the wedding. Absolutely hot. Ross,obastank. Wow. I got the tattoo at the wedding.
Absolutely hot.
Ross, it was at the wedding.
Ross, it was at the wedding.
Just looked at us like, was it?
So much I care.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, she, before this, Ripley's, who had the dress
and were like putting it on her and all this kind of stuff,
gave her a little gift.
And she opens it up and there's a video of her opening it up
and it's in a box and then pulls out this little sort of metal tin and opens it up and the gift is a lock of
Marilyn Monroe's actual hair so it's a lock of hair that's a creepy gift have you now got the
ability to clone her in future years yeah well she was like oh my god I'm gonna be channeling her
I'm gonna sleep with it and I mean I it's like pretty amazing that it's Marilyn Monroe,
the one and only's hair, but no one wants hair as a gift.
What are you going to do?
Put a little fringing on a T-shirt?
You know, a little fringe around the collar or something?
It's creepy.
To keep?
It's weird.
Maybe have on you while you're wearing her dress
and then give it all back. Like the hair? Yeah, the hair's weird to say. Maybe have on you while you're wearing her dress and then give it all back.
Like the hair?
Yeah, the hair's weird.
It's very bizarre.
Anyway, so I wanted to know what's the weirdest gift
you've ever received.
Maybe it was something creepy like a lock of someone's hair
you didn't ask for.
Or someone had made a necklace and put one of their old teeth in.
Oh, yeah, teeth necklaces.
Or what's Machine Gun Kelly
and what's her face? Megan Fox
have got like vials of blood.
Angelina Jolie did that originally, right?
That was the old school movie.
It doesn't have to be a body part.
No, it could just be a creepy
little gift. Maybe they made a doll in your
likeness. Something weird that
friends or family have given you.
All 800 dials at him. We want to take your calls now.
You can text as well.
9696.
What's the creepiest or weirdest gift you've ever received?
It's 11 minutes away from nine.
The incredible Kim Kardashian.
I'm a big fan.
Wore Marilyn Monroe's dress to the Met Gala.
Yep.
And beforehand, it's been revealed,
she was gifted a lock of Marilyn Monroe's hair
from Ripley's Believe It or Not. Which at a party might be quite cool, eh? Hey, do you guys a lock of Marilyn Monroe's hair from Ripley's Believe It or Not.
Which, at a party, might be quite cool, eh?
Hey, do you guys want to see Marilyn Monroe's hair?
No, but then someone sneezes and it's blown to smithereens.
You can't get that back.
So you get that, when they get that cloning tech.
Talking about the weird and unusual gifts that you've ever received,
Anonymous joins us.
What was yours?
Hi, morning, guys.
How are you?
Good.
How are you?
Good. Hey, um, yeah, good.
I got a handbag that is made out of mushrooms.
What?
What, like dried mushrooms?
Yeah, it looks like suede, like a patchwork kind of suede thing.
And it was from overseas in some obscure country
so it must have been quite big
like toadstools or something at one point.
Okay, how did this get... Mushroom leather.
How did this get back into the country?
Is this allowed? Yeah, this must have been declared.
And also, could you submerge that in a
tom yum soup and those mushrooms
come to life? Come back to life, rehydrate.
Well, that could
be one use for it, yeah.
I guess,
you know how they make
fabric out of hemp
and all that?
Is that kind of
technology perhaps?
Well, I don't know,
but it's kind of like
quite big pieces.
Does it stink?
So mushroom leather
is a vegan-friendly
material used as a
sustainable and
environmentally friendly
alternative to animal leather.
Mushroom leather is
made from mycelium,
the vegetative part of the fungus.
Okay.
So you think this is hideous then, I'm assuming.
Yeah.
Not to your taste, so to speak.
Yeah, right.
They saw it and thought of me.
Oh, I hate that when you get a rubbish gift
and they say, saw this, knew it was so you and you're
like is that what you think of me yeah and you could take it when you go out for dinner like
like a night you know like a dinner bag oh no no it's a no from me anonymous brilliant hey thanks
you call keep your messages your texts coming in uh your calls oh 800 dials it in we'll get to more
of those next the weird ugly unusual gifts that you've received. Oh, thank you so much. We're talking about the weird and wonderful,
odd, creepy, gross gifts that you've received. Kim Kardashian received a lock of Marilyn
Monroe's hair. Rebecca's caught up. Good morning, Rebecca. Morning. How are you guys? Good.
Now let's start the story from the very start. Where were you born? And what year?
You don't have to, we're getting the fingers from our producer. Our producer Anna said
make these calls very quick, Rebecca, but
we've got to be thorough. Now, Rebecca,
is that a Scottish name or is that
an English name?
Actually, it is Scottish, Hayley.
Rebecca.
Lovely. Now, tell us what
happened. When did you receive an unusual gift?
It was my 21st birthday, so a couple of years ago now.
In front of all my friends, got given a little, it was a vial,
but it was actually a coat.
You know one of the old Kodak film canisters that you used to get?
Yeah.
It was good that you could roll some money up and stuff them inside those.
Oh, yes.
So I opened that up thinking, well, who got the money?
Me.
No, it was all of my baby teeth.
Oh!
Yeah, your parents were like, she's going to love getting these teeth at her 21st.
So they kept them all.
They weren't 100% clean either.
They had a little bit of blood and stuff still on them.
Oh, no.
What do they want you to do with these?
I don't know.
I think I was pregnant at the time with my first child,
so maybe they thought that I would carry on
some sort of strange tradition.
Are you chucking out your kids' teeth?
Yeah, gross.
Do you know what I do?
Don't chuck them out.
The tooth fairy needs those teeth
for whatever weird thing the tooth fairy does with them.
Don't ask questions, but it is a great exchange for cash.
Brilliant.
Rebecca, thanks for sharing.
Kylie, what weird, unusual gift did you get?
Hi.
Yeah, I got a frog coin purse.
Oh, okay.
Do you like frogs or something?
Are frogs your thing?
No.
No, no.
It's a real frog that's been taxidermied.
Oh, my God.
Okay, you've hit a button here because Hayley loves...
Hang on.
Kylie, do you still have this coin purse?
Yeah.
I'll buy it off you.
This is absolutely the kind of stuff that you'd find in my household.
Because you love taxidermy.
Yeah, we've got a pufferfish lantern.
You hang him and you put a light in him and he
blows. He's
terrible. I'll
send it to you. Oh my god, Kylie.
No, I'll buy it from you.
This frog coin purse is
my jam. How much could a frog coin purse be
possibly worth? Who gifted you this
weird thing?
My dad as a
present when he came back from overseas.
Oh, that's always a thing when he's been in Thailand
or something. Oh, thank you.
Dad, you know me so well.
You are my father.
Amazing. Kylie,
thank you. Some more messages just to finish off.
Responses we asked
on Instagram. Helen said for a wedding gift,
we got a matching toilet roll holder and toilet
brush set from my husband's parents. I think that's their way of saying they don't like their daughter at all. Yeah, alright for a wedding gift, we got a matching toilet roll holder and toilet brush set from my husband's parents.
I think that's their way
of saying they don't
like their daughter-in-law.
Yeah, right.
Six years old,
my dad gave me
a bean slicer for Christmas,
says Kat.
A bike repair kit.
I didn't own a bike,
but their Instagram handle
is Dutch Kat NZ.
So I'm thinking
because they're Dutch,
everybody just assumes
they're Dutch.
Every Dutch owns a bike,
right?
Yeah, they do.
Dutch, bike, tulips, wooden shoes, windmills.
Windmills and weed brownies.
Yeah, weed brownies.
My auntie brought me a G-Banger for Christmas when I was 16.
It was a red lace one and it had the year 2000 written on it.
Oh my gosh.
Wow.
Interesting.
I received a cat robot wine bottle cover.
I don't drink wine or like cats
or have I ever mentioned a proclivity to robots.
Okay.
That sounds like my cup of tea.
Yeah, it sounds pretty neat.
I want to see a picture of it.
My father-in-law gave me cleaning products
and fancy cleaning clothes for Secret Santa
and everybody was like,
ooh, that's weird.
Secret Santas always go a bit wrong, don't they?
Secret Santa is the domain of the regifter.
Yes, absolutely.
It's your chance to offload all the crap you've had over the year.
You can tell who's doing that too because at the end they're like,
okay, who did you get for Secret Santa?
This is the person.
No, we don't do that for Secret Santa.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Secret Santa, you're not supposed to give it a secret.
