The ZM Podcast Network. The Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley Big Pod. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Good morning, welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Bon anniversaire, Fletch and Vaughan. What is that, some kind of private school? Gratis, gratis.

Yeah. How do you say thank you in French? Merci. Merci beaucoup. Merci beaucoup. Merci beaucoup. 20 years together. Yeah. Happy anniversary, Han. Merci beaucoup. Merci beaucoup. 20 years together. Yeah. Happy anniversary,

Han. Happy anniversary. I love you. I'm not saying that. I love you. Fletch. Why are you looking at me when you're telling more, honey? 20 years.

We started our first radio show together. Now, was that the afternoon? Yes, 20 years. 20 years. Today. We started our first radio show together. Now, was that the afternoon? Yeah. Yes, it was, yes. So, okay, we haven't quite reached 20 years yet. Cut, call off all the celebrations. That's what I was thinking. Yeah.

It's like when you're a kid and it's your birthday and you say to your mum, what time of the day was I born? Three o'clock. Three o'clock in the afternoon. Well, that's not my birthday. I get some of tomorrow as well. I get some of tomorrow.

That is such a... I want 24 hours. ...a brat thing to say. Yeah. Yeah, our first live show is in Auckland tonight. There'll be a lot of... We've been going through all the footage and photos of 20 years. We've got some behind us today.

Some of the photos that I found were so small when I double-clicked them, they opened up real small. That means you're old. The girls who have worked on a lot of the imagery said that some of them actually needed to be, and the word was used, restored. Yeah, like we're some kind of like World War II fighter pilot and we're in black

and white and there's like half the photos missing because it was burnt. I watched yesterday some restored footage of World War I France and it was blown apart. I watched yesterday some restored footage of World War I France. And it was beautiful and clear in colour. So if they can't do the same thing from 2004.

Well, they've done a great job of that. Yeah, they have. So on the show today, there's a few special trips down memory lane. Yeah. A few special guests as well.

Including, we thought we would get on the show the Prime Minister from when we started the show. Lovely Auntie Helen. Auntie Helen's on the show. The original auntie. Because we were like, well, let's just get special guests on.

He's only spoke to her many times over the years. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She was a no-nonsense PM. She was the last of the real no-nonsense prime ministers. You can have a lot of fun with John Key. John Key was, he was Chuckles McGee. Yep. Jacinda was always down for a laugh.

Soyman. Was Soyman prime minister? Nah, Bill English was. And Bill English put spaghetti on pizza, remember? And went for a walk run. That's right. And then we actually expelled him from the show and never had him on,

did we? After the spaghetti incident. Yeah, the spaghetti gate really drove a wedge into this country and I'd say we've never been the same since.

And then Jacinda and then, I think COVID was Prime Minister there for a couple of years and now Christopher Luxon's down for a laugh. Not very good at it

but he's really trying. I think that's the problem. He's probably up for a laugh not very good at it but he's really trying I think that's the problem he's probably up for a laugh but you're not really up for it Helen Clark will join us before 7 this morning the lovely John Campbell later as well because we're a lot of highlights today and there was a highlight on Campbell Live

an embarrassing moment for me over the 20 years. I'd also say looking up to broadcasters. I've always looked up to John Campbell. Oh, he's a great man. Of course. He's always been able to balance serious integrity and having a laugh. He's a very funny man.

And the potty mouth on this fellow. He has one of the filthiest mouths in the industry. Just a lad. Also on the showthiest mouths in the industry. Just a lad. Also on the show today, there are mysterious breaks. A couple of mysterious breaks. That we've all done and I don't know what's happening on the show today. You'll be all right. And I don't like that.

I don't like that. Last night, I sat down and Googled everything else turning 20. Yeah. Some of these things will blow your mind. That's going to be later in the show, but a long list of things, all sorts of things, technology, movies, songs, TV shows, everything turning 20. Next on the show, though, I've just been informed

because before our live show today, you're going to come around to my house and have a nap. Yeah. But there's a few things I need to do before a nap. She just ran all of these things and Flesh just nodded, and I was like, he's not used to dealing with a woman. He doesn't know how. You're an arc. I'm an arc. It's an expose that everybody

should be aware of. So Vaughn has alerted me to a possible problem. Hang on, the sheet says Lonely Planet's travel hacks. No, no one cares about that. That was a filler. So what we've come across is some better content. Listen, you've got nothing to worry about. So I said Hayley could stay at my apartment tonight after the live show.

Separate beds. We're fighting. Yeah. Separate beds. Slave divorce. And you also said, I want to have a nap this afternoon. And I said, absolutely. You can have the spare key.

The spare room is yours. Yeah. And then you just mentioned you're getting a tan. Well, I'm staggering. I was placing out my day and I want to go to the gym. I've actually haven't been to the gym for two weeks because I've just been busy. Yeah. So I was like, that'll feel good before the show.

Then I need to have an everything shower because of the live shows tonight. I've got to. Explain. Fletch doesn't know what an everything shower is. Well live shows tonight. I've got to. Explain. Fletch doesn't know what an everything shower is. Well, it's just having a shower, is it? No, no, no. Shampooing. I've got to shave my bits, tits and bits.

Oh, that's going to clog the drain. Everything. Okay. How hairy do you think she is? Okay. Easy, son. I've got to do all that. I've got to exfoliate.

One of the its, she said tits, bits, and pits. It wasn't taking a shits. Right. So she's not going to block your shower. She doesn't poo in the shower. Because I've got quite a skinny shower drain. Yeah. I wouldn't even see.

Trust me, I've tried to shit in your shower. A whole rigmarole. That's not good. I've definitely tried not to before and been successful in that. But, you know, I'll do my hair and wash my hair and stuff and I'll blow dry it with your just top notch blow dryer. Okay. And then I said I'll slap a tan on.

And then have a nap. And then have a nap. And I said I shall lay out a towel. And you've got black and grey towels so that was fine. Lay out a towel on your bedding, and I'll sleep upon the towel so that the tan doesn't transfer. And Fletch is like, oh, yeah. And I was like, they never stay on the towel.

It never stays on the towel. Have you tried sleeping on a towel? I don't know, for whatever reason. If you were sick and you were going to sweat through, so you're like, I'll put a towel down. You move and the towel scrunches and then it scoots out from under you and then the towel ends you're like i'll put a towel down you move and the towel scrunches and then it scoots out from under you and then the towel ends up in like a pile by your feet no you're not tanning my the tan that i use is a quick dry you know give it a little bit i'll

pop you know it's fine but just don't come in the room because i shall be nude like i don't want to put clothes on to rub it off that That's fine. That's fine. That's not a problem. I'm not going to tan your sheets. Your lovely Sheraton hotel quality sheets. If they do go on the towel as a sheets, does it come off? Yeah. I think so.

Think so? What colour are the sheets? What would you do? You've got one of these. She's got a sheet that she puts on. But she also doesn't nap after she tans. She walks around like this. Yeah.

Don't make me sweat. Don't make me sweat. Don't make me cry or sweat. Don't make me sweat. I can't do anything that's going to make me sweat, but I can't sit still, so I've got to keep moving. Yeah, like that. There will just be a period of time because I'll need to dry out.

You'll just have to pop into your bedroom got a ceiling fan, put that on and I'll stand in the lounge of which you've got almost floor to ceiling windows looking out into the city and I'll just dry off so there'll be no stick, no transfer if there's transfer, I'll be more worried about the pink that I'm putting in my hair

I'm not, I will charge you for soiled sheets. Pink pillows and brown sheets. Pink pillows and brown sheets. There will be a charge. I'm like a hotel. What's the inside charge? Well, I'll take a $200 bond on your credit card

and that will only be released if the sheets are clean. Can I supply your credit card details? Because I do have those. No, that's not, that's not going to work. How do you know? You'll say, credit card please, ma'am. And I'll say, da-da-da-da. And you won't even know.

It's kind of like giving the hotel its own account to charge back. I should have kept that to myself. That's not how it works. Actually. Okay, well, you're on notice. Oh, you want me to just go on stage tonight like a big white ghouly ghost? Am I on stage like a ghouly ghost for your 20th anniversary? You want me looking hot?

Well, I'm going on stage like a big gay ghost. Well, come over with me. I'm going on as a gay ghost apparently. You're going on as a big gay ghost. A big gay ghouly ghost. Come over and I'll tan you up as well. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. This is an utterly scathing article about the,

apparently, why it's horrendous to work with Generation Z. Now, as you said on the break, not our experience. Gen Z being the age of... Like 19 to 25 or something like that. Right. Now, we have got one. We've got one. We caught her in the wild. Got her.

Producer Shannon Trim is 24 years old. We lured her in with a Stanley Cup. Yeah. And it was under a box with a stick on it. And then we pulled the string and the stick fell out and she was under the box and we were like, got it! That's how you catch one.

And then because she spent her entire childhood playing a bloody Neopets, she had no upper body strength so we sat on the box until she exhausted herself and then we tuckered her out. We put a bridle and a saddle on her and took her to that round arena thing and I'm getting a lot of mixed metaphors here.

We didn't put a saddle on Shannon but we got one. Now, Shannon, our experience working with you is so far fantastic. She could turn at any moment. Yeah. She could turn at any moment. She is a Gemini, you know. I'm two-faced.

Yeah, you are. I've always wanted to say it. You said it. Two-faced. Now, this is an article that apparently is being torn apart probably by Gen Z on Reddit because it's basically a number of reasons why

employers, like successful business people, why they say working with Gen Z is, quote, not my words, Shannon, a nightmare. Now, here's some examples they've used. Okay. Barely turn up. I would say you turn up every day.

You're one of the first here, and Vaughn, you're always betting Vaughn to work. Yeah. Yeah, but I am the silent generation, so I've done the hard yards. You're not the silent generation. I'm the great generation. You're not, no. I'm a baby boomer. They're like 100 years old silent.

I'm getting ready to retire. Yeah, I know, and I feel it some mornings. I mean, I show up, but the state I show up in, I think, you know. They were a car crash this morning. The point is that they barely show up and you show up every day. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. The sheet's always here, Shannon.

And, you know, if that's the bare minimum, she's done it. And it is fantastic work. Yeah. Yeah. Really negative people, Generation Z. I would say. Gen Z have nothing on the previous generations when it comes to negativity. No. Yeah. Yeah. Really negative people, Generation Z. I would say. Gen Z have nothing on the previous generations when it comes to negativity.

No. Yeah. I mean, if we were to rank ourselves in terms of positivity, obviously I'm at the top. That's been called toxic. Yeah. It's toxic. That's been called toxic positivity.

It's unrealistic positivity. You're too positive. It's too much. They call it denial or sort of, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignorance, Delulu. Yeah. Masking all the problems with positivity. That's right. They call it denial or sort of, you know, ignorance, Delulu. Masking all the problems with positivity.

That's right. But Shannon's floating around up there in Delululand with me. So, again, we don't agree with this. Now, one of the biggest issues that one employer said was the language they use, things like slay and riz. Now, it baffles the employer. They simply cannot keep up with this language. It's like people get old and just forget they were young once. Yeah.

Totally. Now, we do get a few slays from Shannon. Carwen and I in the chat love to hit each other with a slay. You hit a slay. You did say delulu before. Yeah. That means delusional. Yeah. It's a lifestyle. It's a fun way of saying delusional. I mean, the good thing with Shannon,

and actually Carwin and Jared as well, is they tell us what the words mean. They educate us. You know? Oh, God. There's so many of these. It's literally a massive month. It's just a miserable old, grisly old.

People are jealous of the youth. I honestly think they're jealous of the vigour and the energy and the lower backs that aren't in constant stages of age. Are they jealous of the youth of the honestly think they're jealous of the vigour and the energy and the lower backs that aren't in constant stages of the debate. Are they jealous of the youth of the nation, do you think? Well, we were, we were the youth of the nation. And now they are, they are the youth

of the nation. Yeah. Afraid of getting on the phone, they think everything should be done via text. Absolutely, it should be. You didn't call me last night. Who called you? Uber. I thought it was a scam

because it said it was coming from Hellensville. Yeah. I was like, who's calling me from Hellensville? Which is like a West Auckland, wild, wild, far west settlement. It's a lot like my hometown, Morrinsville, Hellensville. So I answer it and they're like, oh, it's Kim from Uber.

I was like, this is a scam but I want to see where it's going. Okay. So I sat on the phone and for ages they were asking me all these questions. Why don't you use Uber as much as you're used to? I said, well, I live in the rural, like your fault. You don't come out here. You guys cancel on me.

Like you say you're coming and then I'm waiting. It's five minutes away and then all of a sudden it's canceled and researching. And they were like, oh, that's terrible. It can't be. I was like, I'm telling you, Kim, it's the story. Yeah. And then it got to the end of it. I was like, what is this an aid of?

And they were just like, oh, we're just doing customer research. I was like, oh, okay. And he's like, have you heard of Uber One? And I was like, it's a sales pitch. Oh. Isn't it wild that you're an app-based modern company, yet you're telemarketing to upsell on Uber One? I said, I think this is a mistake from Uber.

Is it still a scam? Kim did not know what to do. It still sounds like a scam. Never ask me for any details. Shannon, do you do call-arounds on behalf of us saying, hi, I just wanted to see which radio station you listen to and if I could interest you in listening to Fletchbourne and Hayley. I just

make little videos for TikTok, eh? That's not my domain, but I love a call. Your annoying TikTok videos are the new telemarketing. To be honest, that's probably how you sum up my job, yeah. But, but I love a call. Your annoying TikTok videos are the new telemarketing. To be honest, that's probably how you sum up my job, yeah. But no, I love a call, but a lot of my friends, like, I'm the delegated caller of the group.

I'll book their doctor's appointments. I'll call the restaurant. Come on. You've got to do that stuff yourself. No, I do it for all my mates. I get the phone anxiety thing. I'm a bit like that with phones. Because we don't like being told no. No, I do it for all my mates. I get the phone anxiety thing. I'm a bit like that with phones. Because we don't like being told no. No.

But this article has absolutely been torn to shreds online. And it's been torn to shreds this morning because we love our Gen Z. Give them a break. Now give her a snack. Give her a treat. She's done well.

Pop it in the cage. Pop it in the cage. Please, I'm hungry. A snack, please. Silly little poll is next on the cage. Please. Pop it in the cage. Please, I'm hungry. A snack, please. Silly Little Pole is next on the show. Daylight Savings. Yay or nay? What's happening regardless.

Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Oh. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Silly Little Pole. Silly Little Pole. It is so silly, silly, silly.

It's a silly little pole. Silly Little Pole. Silly little pole. It is so silly, silly, silly. It's a silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Like it or not, this weekend is the end of? The start of. It's the end of the start of.

I don't know which one's which. We're going backwards. So we're saving daylight at night to put in the morning. So this is the daylight savings part? Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, so daylight savings is about to kick off. Do you like daylight savings? You get an extra hour of sleep on Sunday.

Yeah, but it's darker at night. It's the one, because the other one you're going into summer, but you have to get up an hour earlier. So it negates itself. This one, you lose a bit of evening, but you have to get up an hour earlier, so negates itself. This one, you lose a bit of evening, but you get an extra hour of sleep for a little bit. No, just for the one night.

Yeah, and then your body adjusts going this way, but the other way it takes like three weeks to adjust properly. Do you like daylight savings? 63% of people said yes. 37% of people said no. It was invented by a Kiwi, eh? Did I read that correctly

or see a headline along those lines? Who invented daylight savings? Like because of milking? Because of dairy farming? No, it is because of farming. British-born New Zealand entomologist. So he was, yeah. For butt?

His name was George Vernon Hudson. Wasn't he like Chris Martens from Coldplay's great-great-grandfather or something? Don't know. He's been awarded a bunch of medals and stuff. There's some weird celebrity connection to... So entomologists are people who study insects as a career. Like bugs and stuff.

Yeah. And he was rude. Kleinpass of his time. Look at these poor little bugs. Like bugs and stuff. Yeah. And he's like, he was rude climb past of his time. Look at these poor little bugs. They need more sleep. Let's give them an extra hour.

Do you think that's what his thinking was? I got no idea. Right. Celebrity connection to daylight savings. I'm sure it's Chris Martin. I don't feel it.

Cold blessing of Chris Martin's ancestors to invent daylight savings. It sounds like an urban legend. It's in Newsweek. It was a story from 2020. Because it comes up every year. Okay.

That he did. And I'm sure it was Chris Martin's. Right. Chris Martin has a lineage that may explain his fascination with clocks. Because of the Coldplay song. Right. Okay. I mean, it doesn't really matter, does it?

The practice... To much of the Western world was William Willett, a builder, horse rider, and great-great-grandfather of Chris Martin. He championed the use of it, but this guy, our guy, our boy Hudson... Got it under play. Came up with it because his shift working gave him time to play with insects. And he was like, I reckon this would be better if we did a two-hour jump here and then a two-hour thing.

A two-hour jump. Yeah. Right. And then Christchurch was like, tell us more, sir. Christchurch the city. Yeah. Amazing. Good one, Christchurch.

He died in Karori in Wellington. See you tomorrow. Christchurch. Good one, Christchurch. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Okay, yeah, nice one, Christchurch. See you in the morning. See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Christchurch. Good one, Christchurch. Just see you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Okay, yeah, nice one, Christchurch. See you in the morning.

See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow. Some feedback on it. Hannah says, I love daylight savings because I'm a sook and hate walking out of work in the dark. She's got her daylight savings confused. Yeah. Because now she's going to start walking out of work in the dark

unless she's a shift worker. In which case, it might be lighter in the morning. But if she's a standard 9 to 5-er, it means you're going to be leaving work in the dark. Not right now. It's so dark in the morning. Bring on this weekend. Yeah.

This is from Emily. She likes a bit more light in the morning. But we're going to get that for a little bit and then we lose that hour eventually, don't we? There was talk about doing it two hours overall, but in one hour blocks. So we do one hour now and then another hour in a month or something. Oh, okay.

So that it's lighter. Staggered. Yeah. Can't they just leave the time 30 minutes in between, says Jono. Split the difference. No, we want long seminars. There are some time zones where it goes out half an hour and you're like, what?

No. Hour or nothing. We work on hour. Even or nothing. Australia's got an island. Yeah, there's a few places that do. Hamilton Island, one of them. Brianna says, I like Daylight Savings.

It's always got a weird nostalgic feel to it. It does. And it surprises you every year. It does. And it surprises you every year. It does. It really surprises you. Have you ever tried to convince a child it's time to go to bed when it's still light outside, says Tegan? It's horrible.

Okay, she... Talking about the other season. She doesn't like the other part of it. She likes the part where it's dark because the kids are going to go to bed. Hey, they're not going to be kids forever though, Tegan, and one day you'll be really high up in the way. I want to stay up and talk to mum. Do you know Iran, Afghanistan, India and Myanmar

and in days gone by Malaysia, Singapore and North Korea had 30 minute differences. So it's like what's the point? Time zones. Time zone differences, yeah. Did they? Yeah. Fall in line.

What's the point? Get on the hour or don't bother. Fall in line. Anyone got like a 20? 20 minute? Quarter of an hour? I don't think so. I don't think anyone's been.

I'll try a quarter. See if anyone's got a quarter of an hour. Time zone. Time zone difference. But also daylight savings has got nothing to do with time zones. I don't want anyone to get confused on that. It's more to do with the equinox and the seasonal change. 12 hours, 45.

I knew they were 45 ahead. I think I just, if you were to check this break prior, I didn't. 20 years and you won't listen to me, you son of a bitch. Look at me in the eye, Chatham Islands. It's 45 minutes ahead. Did you hear him say that? He didn't say that. 25 minutes.

45. 45 minutes ahead in the Chatham Islands. Just do it anyway. I don't want anybody thinking that time zones are the same as daylight savings I also said that just before

I don't know if you did it's more to do with the seasonal change we were talking about daylight savings get a bit more out of the winter months as a concept

no says Kristen but my husband and I met on daylight savings got engaged on daylight savings and got married on daylight savings so it holds a special

place in our hearts. So your anniversary day is a shorter day or a longer day? No, because it's not the same every... It's always a weekend. So date-wise, it wouldn't be... It's always a Sunday. Why is Queen's birthday always on a Monday then, if the days change with the date?

Vaughan, riddle me that. It's always on a Monday. Yeah, because it's always on like The last weekend of a something No it's not What she changes her birthday every year Oh okay Okay Vaughn 20 years

And he's still an idiot Also she's dead Wow Way to bring the mood down She hasn't died in my time zone Oh you're still on Queen's birthday I'm six months back What happens to her

Oh don't tell me Spoiler alert. Okay, yeah. I've still got to finish The Crown. Okay. And Jill says, I only like the daylight savings when we're going into summer. I don't know if that's daylight savings or not daylight savings. Neither us, Jill.

Yeah. I think the one we're about to experience is technically daylight savings. Yeah. On with your day. Play ZM's Fletchford and Haley. Play ZM. on with your day. So it's 20 years since we started as a show and we thought we would look back a little bit at some important people over those 20 years. And 20 years ago, she was the Prime Minister

of Aotearoa New Zealand. We're joined by a person we affectionately call Auntie Helen. Helen Clark, good morning. Good morning. Wow. It's lovely to speak to you. And you too.

I was just reflecting last week that come November, it'll be 25 years since I became Prime Minister. Can you believe? Oh, wow. Wow. Okay, if I wasn't already feeling old today, I am now. I remember it because you can remember it, right? Yeah, I remember it because you were the first female prime minister

elect of New Zealand. That's right, the first one to win an election. Jenny Shipley was there in the post before me, and that actually made it easier for me because it showed that a woman was in the job, a woman could do the job, and then the electorate was presented with two women. So whoever they voted for, they were going to get a woman PM or a woman leader of the opposition. Did you seriously feel, though, before Jenny Shipley,

that there was a general feeling that women could not run the country? It was very hard, you know. I mean, we're talking about social attitudes of a quarter century and more ago. And there was no role model. People remembered Margaret Thatcher. But, you know, that was the UK. That was years before. She was seen as the Iron Maiden.

That wasn't, you know, the sort of style that I had. It was very tough. So Jenny taking the top job was helpful to all of us, to be honest. Since obviously leaving politics in New Zealand, you've done a lot with the UN and you're very active on social media. How do you think it would have been being the Prime Minister but having the social media that we have today? It would have been different, but given how I've taken to it,

you can expect that the PM would have been tweeting from the back seat of the car and putting up Snapchat videos of what she saw. I would have been active for sure. Do you feel it's always, I mean, it's not, is it? It's not always positive. We saw that over sort of the COVID and how Jacinda was attacked personally with all the social media.

Does the good outweigh the bad in that space? I think it does. And I certainly try to use it for good to get people more aware of important issues and so on, but we all know there's that bleak side to it where people consume a lot of misinformation and disinformation and people say things on social media that they would never say to your face. So I think really the message to everyone is before you hit the keyboard or the touchpad on your phone,

just think about, when I say this to someone in person, because if the answer is no, don't write it. Sometimes people don't even say it when you reply to them. They're not expecting a reply a lot of the time, are they? And then when you do, they're like, oh, oh, oh, really start choking on it. That's right. And it's always a fine judgment

do you reply? But I must say, I have found that sometimes when I've replied and said, look, that just isn't right, this is what happened, people will say, oh, you know, thanks for putting it out there, you know. So you don't always get a, you know, a really hostile response. People will say, oh, hang on a minute, check. Yeah. What's the biggest in 20 years that we've been doing the show? What do you think the biggest societal change has been in the last 20 years?

Undoubtedly, the rise of women has been huge. You know, you think about it. Last Parliament, 50% of the MPs were women. Now, when I came in in 1981, we were under nine percent. I mean, this is a huge change in society. I think without question, COVID brought, it put a lot of strains on society. We became less cohesive. You know, in every family, there were debates because, you know, everyone knew someone who didn't want to get vaccinated. In my case, in my family, my dad's 102 now, you know, he's lived through the pandemic.

But we had to be extremely careful, couldn't have people near him who weren't vaccinated in those early deadly days when the only defence we had was isolation. So, yeah, I think it put a lot of strains on families, a lot of strain on society. Wow. Well, I mean, congratulations also to your dad. Yeah.

And you're still around, but I wasn't sure it was 102. That's a phenomenal innings. Yeah, we had birthday parties just two weeks ago, and he lost them. Wow. That runs in the blood because you're 74 now, and are you still doing your hiking? You're always a massive proponent for the outdoors when you're in politics in New Zealand.

Absolutely. Still lifting weights to the gym three times a week. Himalayan trick again last year. We're pretty active. How much are you lifting? What's your weight? Depends on which movement it is, but it feels damn heavy sometimes.

Okay. On the 20th anniversary of the show, thank you so much for joining us. Happy anniversary, guys. Thank you. Play. ZDM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Live from the bank

and the only pen left on the chains is out of ink. Of course it is. It's Fletch and Vaughan's Disc of News. Welcome to the Disc of News, July the 16th, 2012. Keep it going, keep it going. The Desk of News. The Desk of News.

And Vaughan. That was old. Later in the show, I'm bringing back a classic, but it's not the Desk of News. I didn't even think about that. That was a lot of work. So you can see in my retirement, I'm approaching retirement.

I'm pulling back a little bit. I'm quiet quitting. Yeah. Over the next 15 years. This is really fun, Jared, that all these intros are different and little throwbacks from the last 20 years. Celebrating 20 years today. And hats off to the producers

who have done a lot of extra work in the later part of the live show and also just this show. The desk of, not desk of news, the live show and also just this show the desk of not desk of genius the top six is next and it will be you sort of like a replacement

yeah wasn't it you will be doing this I am I'm going to do the top six things that Fletch and Vaughn have outlived since you've survived

20 years from the panoramic ZM think tank this is the Top Six. Hi there. I was just going to say, I haven't done it. But then I remembered.

You've got to panic. Hayley's doing it. It's our 20th anniversary today, Vaughan, so Hayley's doing it. Thanks, Han. Yes, thank you. And once again, our producers have contributed here with some suggestions for the Top Six things that Fletch and Vaughan, having been together for 20 years, have officially outlived. Okay.

20 years is not a small amount of time. The things that are no longer unlike you guys. Number six. Yeah. Gone. RIP before that time. I would almost say any fedora, be it houndstooth, pinstripe. I would also say any pinstripe.

Who was that singer that wore a fedora? Jason Mraz. Lou Bega. Oh, yeah, Lou Bega. Oh, Jason Mraz. Was that a fedora? Dude, everyone wore a fedora at some point. Was that a Panama hat?

You guys would have. Yeah, the wide brim at the back, fine. We love a wide brim hat. Fedoras, you've officially outlived them. Number five on the list of the top six things that Fletch and Vaughn have outlived. Ben Lummis' music career. Gone. That was, New Zealand Idol was 2004 when we started.

It was indeed. It was on the charts. Yeah, it was, yeah. Gone, but I tell you what, not forgotten. Not forgotten. Number four on the list of the top six things that Fletch Vaughan have outlived, Coney 2012. Right in the middle of things.

Officially, we've put that to rest. Remember Coney 2012? I remember. It was everywhere, and like a day or so into it, we watched the video together, and we both being like horrible cynics, we're just like, no, this doesn't seem right. Oh my God.

I think I shared. I think I was like, guys, we must. We must do something. I know. I was confused. I remember the Naked and Famous song was in the video.

Do you remember that? Yes. It was part of the big video. That's right. And it kind of swept everybody up and they were like, we must. It was a beautifully put together video.

Oh my God. It was, yeah. Take my money. And we were like, we must find these children. We must. And then the guy had a naked meltdown. He had a full meltdown. In San Diego.

Do you remember that? In the streets. His clothes were Satan, so we must get them off. And I believe they never, and still to this day, have not got Kony. Yeah, I know. Kony's still on the run. No one even knows what it was. It was a hell of a thing to be around.

There was a, oh yeah, that was the film. And wasn't there then a film about the entire thing? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't know this, but apparently when he was naked having the meltdown, the hashtag went from Kony 2012 to Horny 2012. Fantastic.

Good from the internet then. If you were listening to this and you're like, what is this? Give it a Google. It was a whole thing. It was a major moment. Okay, number three. He's 63 years old, Kony. Now. Apparently now. Yeah. Number three on the list of the top six things that Fletch and Vaughn have officially outlived after 20 years together. Borders bookstores.

Oh, RIP. They failed. They were a great bookstore. You did not. Where did they go wrong? Too big. That's why I thought they had too much stock on hand. The one in Wellington was insane.

Yeah, too much stock on hand. Lots of choice, but it was too much. Yeah. Go on. Number two on the list of the top six things that Fletch and Vaughn, after 20 years, have officially outlived. News Hub. Oh, Jesus.

It was called Three News when we started. Yeah. I think Mike McRoberts was still there. Chubby Mike McRoberts. Oh! I like him both ways. He's just getting better with age, isn't he? He is so drinkable.

When I lived in central Auckland, he'd go to the same gym. Oh, yeah. And I was like, interesting. And then he was just jacked all of same gym. Oh, yeah. And I was like, interesting. And then he was just jacked all of a sudden. And there he was. And number one on the list, the top six things

that Fletch and Vaughn have outlived, the phase that I told my mum wasn't just a phase. It was a phase. What was the phase? All of them. Oh, all of the phases.

But it wasn't a phase. Because you overheard her telling your dad, don't worry about it, Craig. It's just a phase. And you'd pick over the door and be like, it's't a phase Because you overheard her telling your dad Don't worry about it Craig It's just a phase And you took over the Nuremberg It's not a phase What the hell is Hayley wearing?

What the hell has she put in her bloody lip? Craig it's just a phase No it's not This is me It was just a phase Unlike Fletch and Vaughn That's today's top six Seven Days is back

And I was on it last night. You can watch it on 3... 3 Now, is that what they call it? Yeah. If you want. Great, great plug. They'll be having you back. That's probably what you're doing for the show.

3 Now, is it? I don't... Are they TVNZ Plus? Is it somebody? I don't know if they will have you back after last night. Oh, my God. Now, it's no secret that you have a big girl crush on Chloe Swarbrick. These are my crushes.

Jason Momoa, Stephen Adams, Chloe Swarbrick. Two of these things are kind of the same. Now, if you didn't see last night's episode, you can see on our Instagram story now, FVHZM, a clip of seven days last night that was shared. And in the background of Chloe Swarbrick, you can see Hayley Jane Sproul. I'm like leaning on one arm,

staring at the back of Chloe's head as she speaks pure truths. And it is a look, the look of love is in my eye. It was an unfair framing because there was one stage where you looked down and even that looked like full-only like

I wonder if she'll turn around and see me. I think it was like the framing of it. In the wide shot, it's probably not as bad. Yeah, when there's other people. When it's close on Chloe, especially in a social media context where it's just the portrait sort of framing of it, it's so pesty.

Like it is full-blown peste. And then Seven Days clipped it up to sort of show what Josh was joking about and what Chloe was saying. But just in the back, all you can see is me being like, she's so great. You are the pest using transmission gully.

Yeah, I'm the pest. I'm traveling along. She is transmission gully. You're jumping on and traveling along and hopping back off again. The amount of people that messaged me being like, oh my God, not you in the back of Chloe's shot. If this was reversed, if this was a guy looking at a hot chick.

Yeah. I know. People would be like, oh, he was leering. Leering would be the word. Yeah. Leering. He was leering. Oh, my God.

I will say I didn't message Chloe because there's something. She's so beautiful and intelligent. And when she came on the show, she gave me hugs. We've met a number of times before and I couldn't look her in the eye. And Corby called me out. During the show, he was like, what are you doing? Because the whole game of Yes Minister is you're supposed to say, oh, hey, Chloe, and ask a question and try to get her to say yes or no answers.

And I'd be like, hey, Chloe, she'd spin around and I'd be like, and my eyes would dart down like a schoolboy. Yeah. Someone messaged in just now, texted in saying it was the hair flicking and preening as Chloe spoke for you. What did I preen it? You were flicking your hair and what, like a bird?

You were plucking out the feathers that were no longer suitable for flight? They don't need it. Wow. Fly in a minute. Look, I messaged Chloe to say like, oh my god, like how this video. Yeah. She was like, it's fine.

Don't worry about it. I think you need to work on your poker face. Yeah. Just like neutral. I need to be like treat him mean, keep him keen. Ew, Chloe. Calm down. Do I just hit this? Might need some backstory.

Context please. We haven't done this in the mornings. We used to do this in the evenings, and it was in the famous six to seven hour, which was either replays of what we'd done earlier in the show. Oh, really? Or a couple of cheeky pre-records so we could go home early. Oh, naughty. Yeah, in the afternoons.

I tell you what, afternoon shows, they're never there. They're never there. Really? They're never there. Especially if they've got kids. Clint. They're like, I've got to get home. This was me.

As soon as I had it in the air for the last couple of years of afternoons, I've just got to get home. You know, it's the bedtime ritual that I want to be part of. Have I jumped into the wrong time slot? And they play like three slot? We used to play three songs in a row. We'd talk after every song, maybe three or four times an hour. It's casual.

Because when we're off air, boy, the chats the three of us have. So we'd be having more gossip. More chats. We had a lot of gossip. Should we swap with Brian Clint? We could do a swap. Straight swap. I actually prefer mornings. Get it out of your way.

Get it done. It goes so fast. And then you, like, with the best of intentions, it'll free up my evenings to be more social. No, it doesn't. You're so tired. No, no, no, no, no, no. But anyway, we used to do this in the afternoons.

And every now and then someone will ask me if we're bringing it back. So I thought today on the 20th anniversary, we'd do it. Let's bring it back. Hit it. Mom, can we play Skitter Googles? What? No! Goodness wait, what did you say? I said can we play Skitter Googles? Oh, Skitter

Googles! I thought you said can we form one of the greatest Kiwi radio partnerships in New Zealand history and work together for 20 years? No issue! Of course we can play Scattergoogles. It's fun for the whole family. Yay! What is Scattergoogles? Scattergoogles is a game where you write half a question into Google

and then roll a Scattergories dice and then put that letter in and see what it autocompletes as. Okay. And we stopped doing it just because we'd kind of run out of... Yeah, we'd done so many questions. So many questions. Because we'd get carried away, wouldn't we? Now if we were doing it, what we'd do is we'd do

one question a day. Oh my god, someone on the text machine is very excited. We'd do one... If we were doing it now, we'd do one question a day. We'd probably have a shorter intro. That's a recreation of what the intro used to sound like. Very well done. Shout out to Sam and Jared who put that together and also aged up

because he used to be a little kid. But of course we haven't done it for 10 years so now he's a kid. And his mum's got older too. Significantly older. But I've got some questions here that we can start with. So I thought the first one I'll pipe into Google Google.com You guys heard of it? Are you going Google.com? I go Google. Okay. So I thought the first one I'll pop into Google, google.com.

You guys heard of it? You're going google.com. I go google.co.nz. I'm going google.com. Why is my? Oh, okay. Why is my? And now I roll the dice.

Why is my? Put it behind it. You had the music too loud. That's your fault. Are we having a tiff? No. On our anniversary. No, please don't fight.

Are we going to fight? Why is my? No. On our anniversary. No, please don't fight. Are we going to fight? Why is my... G. Why is my gum swollen? Ooh. Not flossing enough. Ginger vitis. Yeah.

Seen that. Why is my Garridor beeping? Now, as someone who used to do voiceover work for Garridor, I won't have a bad word said. I don't know why you're still sticking up for them. Didn't they fire you? Yeah, your contract's done, babe. Your contract expired.

I'm so loyal. Who's doing the voiceover now? I'll take money from anybody. Who's doing the voiceover now? Have you been replaced? Do you know who took me over? Sam in production who made this background.

How dare he? Wow, I didn't know that. That's amazing. Why is my German shepherd so itchy? Please. Okay, here's some... Why is my girlfriend yelling at me? Why is my girlfriend always mad at me? Why is my girlfriend so itchy? Please. Okay, here's some good ones. Why is my girlfriend yelling at me? Why is my girlfriend always mad at me?

Why is my girlfriend so mean to me? Why is my girlfriend so annoying? Why is my girlfriend always tired? Why is my ginger beer not fizzy? A fantastic question. You've burped it too hard. You have. Yeah, you've absolutely burped it.

Why is my goldfish turning white? You know, bad water, bad nutrients. Yeah, but it could be goldfish vitiligo. Could be. Vitiligo? Could be an albino. I wouldn't be one to ever assume. Why is my guitar buzzing?

Pickett? Well, that's funny. I know, yeah. Probably why. She was always watching for other people picking their nose and eating it. And she outed me to everybody, and that was the last time I picked my nose and ate it. Fair. Anyway, that's how Skater Googles work.

A lovely return. I'm into it. So much fun. You're thinking this is the fun. I'm into it. So much fun. You're thinking this is the reboot. I'm feeling it. They did one of those anniversary specials and it did well on a dry day. I think on a dry day. I don't know.

Sometimes the reboots come back and everyone's a bit older and bigger. Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me. It kind of works the same way. ZDM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. It's been a while since I've been to spin class, but I guess something like this. That's it. Everybody dance the tree. We're pedaling. Are you ready? Okay, it's time to peddle off 2007, Brittany. Let's go.

I think that was your short-lived spin class. That was my spin year when I was a spin. I used to do a spin class on Saturday mornings. I love that was your short-lived spin class. That was my spin year when I was a spin. I used to do a spin class on Saturday mornings. I love that. And then that Britney Works song was perfect for a spin class. Les Mills have missed you. I don't think there's been a spin instructor. There just hasn't.

A sprint instructor like you since, to be honest. Have you seen that fat guy on TikTok that can do gymnastics? Yes, he's amazing. He's amazing, and that's what I was like as a spin instructor. I'd walk in and sit on the front and they're like, this guy hasn't got it. Skinny legs, fat guts. And I'd be like, strapping.

These are horse lungs. Yeah. All right, coming up on the show, 8 o'clock is when you can play to win the $50,000 with five on time. Yeah. You've found a list, Vaughn, of things that also, like us, like our radio show came out in 2004

came out we're way launched I haven't come out yet but I will one day when I'm brave enough to tell I'll probably tell my wife first I think before I start

cruising but I mean who knows the order you're doing it now you're doing it now he just jokes around there are some insane things turning 20

this year yes like technologically yes and stuff can I just take a moment of the show now yeah He just jokes around. There are some insane things turning 20 this year. Yes, there are. Like technologically and stuff. Can I just take a moment of the show now? Yeah. We just had a knock on the window here at the studio. We looked outside and there's a man in a Hiver's shirt.

Now that is, I immediately feel a kinship to this brother. Normally we'd send security out with a stun gun and they tase them. We say deal with this guy. Yeah, because who knows what's happening here. But he had a brown paper bag. Yes, instantly we were like, security, stand down. I stand down. He's got a brown paper bag and he's in a high-vis shirt.

Yeah. Again, a kinship with this man. I go out there to say hello. I meet Bruce, who's listened to the show for many years. Many, many years. Good man. His daughter, whose name I did not catch because it all happened so quickly and I was overwhelmed and I got goosebumps.

I got a little bit teary, to be honest with you, Bruce. Bruce said, whose name I did not catch because it all happened so quickly and I was overwhelmed and I got goosebumps. I got a little bit teary to be honest with you, Bruce. Bruce said, I heard you mention a few weeks ago on air that you wanted to try Brown Walls Irish

Whiskey from the creators of Always Sunny in Philadelphia. A show you love deeply. Four Walls, A Better Brown. Four Walls, A

Better Brown is its slogan. And it's made by Charlie Day, Rob McElhinney and Glenn Howard from Always Sunny in Philadelphia. One of the best shows slogan. Yeah. And it's made by Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, and Glenn Howard from Always Sunny Philadelphia. One of the best shows of all time. One of the longest running live comedy series.

So good. And they released a whiskey. You can't get it in New Zealand. He heard me say this on air. His daughter, whose name I didn't get, is a flight attendant for Qantas. Yeah. She was in America.

She picked it up. Amazing. Arrived yesterday. He said, what better day than to drop it off today? Oh, my God, Bruce. Bruce. Just came by the studio. A high-vis guardian angel.

And I just said, oh, do you want to bring him in? Bruce isn't up. Bruce hasn't got time to dilly-dally. He's a man or the mission. He's in a hurry. So thank you so much, Bruce. Thank you so much, Bruce, that we didn't taser him today with security. I was ready to bloody push the button.

Because it's raining outside, too. And, you know, tasering in the rain is a double taser. It carries the electricity, doesn't it? Thank you to Bruce and Bruce's lovely daughter. It's so lovely. Thank you.

Next on the show, we have one of New Zealand's broadcasting icons joining us. Another one. You know? There's a three of us. Does he have an honorary doctorate yet? I don't believe so.

Surely. We're going to talk to John Campbell next about an embarrassing moment for me that happened on Campbell Live. He likes the marvellous. You're a good boy. Marvellous. Play Zed-N.

Fletch for the nightly. Play Zed-N. Very excited. We've had Helen. We've had Aunty Helen. And I think it's time for an uncle to come to the party, celebrating 20 years. And we're going to relive one of your most embarrassing moments, Fletch, with the lovely John Campbell.

Morena, John. Morena, morena. Happy anniversary. How cool is that? Thank you very much. 20 years. Yeah. And I think what's really sweet is that you started in Fletch's living,

Fletch's bedroom, eh? Yep. With two little walkie-talkies doing radio to each other. Up a young boy's. You'll do that, Maud. Yep. I mean, I like the fact that you picture us as children 20 years ago when we were fully grown men 20 years ago.

We're just all getting older and younger. I don't know. I've been thinking a lot about what it is you bring, and Vaughan, despite your appalling imitation of me saying marvellous, which is the worst I've ever seen. I do think it's your kindness and the fact that everyone listening, because a lot of people start their days in shitty traffic, you know? You know, wondering if they can get off to work

and wondering if they can do another day. Their boss is a pain in the arse. And you guys send them into the world with a sense of, I don't know, light and delight and possibility. And like, you know, I don't know. Anyway, congratulations. John, that's so nice. The boys hate compliments.

They are just wincing at these lovely words from a man they respect deeply. It's true, isn't it? It's true, Hayley, isn't it? I know. I really do think you're a lovely, lovely company. John, do me now because, you know, I love compliments. No, no, no, no. It's not her anniversary.

John, she doesn't need one. But if we are following the how I grew up, the pattern of compliment from mother, here comes the criticism. Yeah. So I'm waiting for the butt So I'm waiting for the butt. I'm waiting for the butt. Waiting for the butt. Any critiques, John?

No. No criticism coming up. No, you're delightful. You're delightful. I mean, obviously the relationship was, you know, sagging, getting up. You had to ring Hayley, right? Yeah.

You know, you just couldn't stand looking at each other any longer. No, no, but an eye candy for the studio. That's right. That's right. I don't want you to objectify, Hayley, but, yeah, I think things have improved on the eye candy front. Oh, thank you, John. Thank you.

Pleasure. There's the butt. I told you it was coming. I told you it was coming. There's the butt. That's nice. Now I feel at ease again. I feel at ease.

I do want to say 20 years is a remarkable time together. And you clearly still love each other dearly. You're great in each other's company. You bring up a beautiful energy. You still have the capacity to surprise each other. And you work at it. You know, I think people listening probably think, but you do, don't you? I mean, you think the show through. You know, I think people listening probably think, but you do, don't you? I mean, you think the show through, you

plan the show, you're actively engaged in what you're doing and how you're doing it. And then I arrive at work and it's all taken care of. Hayley's done all that shit. Hayley and Fletcher have done all the hard work. You roll in, she just is going, oh my God, sitting there with

her arms folded. We have spent a lot of time over the last few weeks going through the archives and a lot of photos. A lot of photos. A lot of videos. And a video we found, you will remember this, the year was 2011. It was September

2011 and Campbell Live was helping raise money for a Samoan rugby player who got a $10,000 fine for wearing a branded mouth guard. That's right. On Ponson, we were having a sausage chisel on Ponson B Road. Right, you were. And that is when we came up, and that is when we appeared,

and we can have a listen to the audio now. We appeared on Campbell Live. And our radio friends started arriving. So this is a point of principle for you boys, or did you just want a sausage? It's a little column A, little column B. A lot of column sausage. But yeah, it's crazy, so why not?

I agree. I love sausages, sure. He does. I love sausages. He loves sausages to this day. I got ridiculed for saying I love sausages for years after. Such a poignant phrase, you know, in this time where we're sticking to the ban. The big IRB we're getting it stuck to and Fletcher just tells everybody he just loves sausages.

I could have made a grand political statement. That's all that kind of came out. Yeah. Yeah, I love sausage. That was ridiculous. They fined him 10 grand. That was pretty ridiculous. At least I need two langi.

And yeah, I couldn't believe it. It was really sweet how many people turned up to pay. People were paying 100 bucks, 200 bucks for a sausage. It was delightful. Wow, no one loves sausages more than Fletch. What did you pay Fletch? What was your donation? I don't know.

We may have even just done a couple of dollars, I think. Wow. Mind you, it was 2011 on Ponsonby Road. Times were good. Times were good. Yeah, they were good. They were ridiculously good. Different world, Hayley.

Different world. Hayley, are you loving it? Oh, John, I'm absolutely loving it. It's not about John. It's not about Hayley today, John. It sounded like I was being sarcastic there. It's really not about me, John. I'm struggling with that aspect of it. I'm not loving it as much anymore, John. I'm older.

Everything aches. It's a ridiculous hour for a human to wake up every morning. Yeah, it is. Yeah, it is. What time does the alarm go off, actually? 4.30. Yeah, yeah. It's nuts.

Weak hours for John. You used to get up at like 3, didn't you, for breaking? Yeah, 3.15 when I was doing breakfast, yeah. I only did three years of it, but I found it really tough. I never got used to it. On the last day, it was as tough as the first day. Never felt better. Yeah. Never felt better. Yeah.

Oh, God. Well, John Campbell, thank you so much. You're a great guy. It is tough. Yeah. You've sealed the deal, John. I quit.

And they're getting lots of little like stars and things on their hands. Whereas like millennials, we were told, hands on tattoos, you ain't getting a job.

Yeah. Say no more. And the second one, tramp stamps. No! And again, don't unless you are. Tramp stamps are making a return. Your fiancé Aaron has a tramp stamp. Now look, he was 19 at the time.

You will regret it it do you know what he finds it quite funny now and when he goes to the beach he takes off his shirt and everyone's like is that it he's like it sure is he'd never see it

no he didn't he'd never see it how often do you look at your lower back in the mirror yeah I don't look at his lower back that often

and there's a little insight into our sex life play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey play ZM's trio of friends famously don't work side into our sex life. Trio of friends famously don't work. But duos, however, stand the test of time. 20 years ago today you guys started working together. Pause.

Wonderful segue. She's learning. You are learning so well. That was incredible. All I have learned from radio. I have learned from Flex I have learned from only because every time we have a meeting with management or consultant afterwards we say forget all that I say do I need to worry about any of that

and they say no no no let's go get some eggs now don't expect me to cry and there is no cake no there's no cake shut up whenever we have nice treats in the studio, you don't eat them. This does feel like the opportune time to crack open

a bottle of whiskey from Bruce. I just need some ice. Do the people out there do ice? Do you have ice? Oh, no, that's milky. I don't want that. I've got three cubes left for my iced coffee. I'm not eating. It's for a McCafe drive-thru. I enjoyed a delicious barista make a cup of coffee on the go.

No, I'll do it. Thanks to McCafe. Great things are brewing on the go. Don't poo-poo my McCafe leftover iced coffee ice. It's milky. I don't want that ice. I want clean ice. Well, you've got to have it neat then.

What are we doing on the show? Because Vaughan and I are in the dark. You're in the dark just for a little bit. Don't be afraid. Follow me. Okay. You've had some nice words from the lovely Aunty Helen.

Are we about to have bad words from people that no longer speak to us? Yes. No, we're not. Please no. We got everyone from your past. Oh, no, no, no, no. There's a reason we don't speak to them anymore. Who has a bone to pick with you. The bones will be picked dry,

Hayley! And they want to reveal some. This is the secret. Someone said to me, what's the secret to 20 years? I said, being an island. Yes. Being an island. You may dock your boat temporarily to island flesh and bone. You're docked.

You're docked. You've got a good mooring. One day I shall leave. You paid your mooring. One day I shall leave your island. One day you will be asked to leave the island. I know, I know. Your flame will be extinguished.

I'm aware I'm docked. I'm aware I'm docked. No, no, I wouldn't. We would never do that to you. Be an island. No, I just think, you know, I haven't really said that many nice words, but you won't look me in the bloody eye for me to do it.

I don't like compliments. I don't need compliments. I know you don't, so I'm not giving you any. I bought you a coffee. Shut up. Okay. We are going to hear from a couple of important people from your lives. Oh, my God.

No, from your past, starting with a couple of female friends. April 2004. iPhones, nonexistent. MSN Messenger was king. And New Zealand was riding high on Lord of the Rings. Meanwhile, two pubescent boys were unknowingly embarking on a journey of their own that would last for 20 years and counting. It's like here, it's like people calling up, can I have a free CD, please?

Most heard thing. Over 5,200 shows. I got a good, good, a good feeling. Over 5200 shows. I got a good good a good feeling. I hate wireless keyboards. I'm never going to need to go too far away from the computer. What do I need a wireless for? It's not like a cordless phone. I can't type on the computer

while I'm hanging out the washing, you know, or doing the dishes. Just put a bloody cord on it. Yeah, mop on the cloud ain't coming back down. 300,000 voice breaks. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right. And only one kiss. That we know of.

Before there was fact of the day, there was... Page of the day, day, day, day. Page of the day. Right. I'm the talk of the town. Carl Peter Fletcher. I know you're feeling it now. And Vaughan Alan Smith.

Come on and move to the sound. Together. Keep it going, keep it going. And turn it up loud. We celebrate 20 years of Fletch and Vaughan. Yeah, I'm up on the cloud. Ain't coming back down. That was the first ever time we did that jingle.

So it was just dig, dig, dig, dig. He did the first half, and then I did the second half, and that's been the jingle ever since. It was Pager today, now it's Fletch. Yeah. We're going to sing with a group of people. Yeah, strange. 300,000 voice breaks.

Insane. Now, here's one of them. We're going to hear from a couple of people that used to work with you, two of your old producers. Spin it. Happy 20 years, Fletch and Vaughan. It's your favourite hot mess,

producer Caitlin, Katie. I miss you guys every day. I do not miss how you embarrass me for the majority of my time spent with you, making me run after all blacks and dating randoms under the sky tower and that time that you made me, like, date a guy by only seeing their bottom half of their body

and they were, like, naked. And then I had to pretend to hurt myself to go on dates. There's a lot of dating stuff. You obviously did not help me in that aspect, but you did teach me a lot. Thank you for not laughing at, well, laughing at me when I had to use my sock in Africa and for teaching me about tides

and that you can put boats, your own boat, in the ocean. I love you both so much. I'm so glad that we still catch up all the time. Bourne, you can stop messaging me so much. But I can't wait to see you guys down here in Otatahi Christchurch and I feel so lucky to know you guys. Love you.

Hello, my beautiful friends. In turn, I'm your here and I just wanted to pop by and say a huge congratulations on 20 amazing years. Absolutely loved working on the show with you two. What a blast we had. You know, no two days ever the same working with you guys. One day you'd be, you know, cleaning donkey poo out of the carpet because Vaughan wanted a donkey in for Zorro Vemba.

The next day you'd be fighting a magician for, you know, potential legal action. You'd be putting Vaughan into a balloon, setting a studio on fire. Might be at a work event wondering, where is Fletch? Another costume change. Or he's had to go back to the hotel for, you know, 20 to 30 minutes. Really, you never, ever had two days that were the same. So absolutely loved it. Looked back very fondly and I hope you guys are celebrating

very large today. Love you both. Congrats on 20 years. Bye. That was lovely. Two of you, your previous producers there. Now, we have not had a small horse in the studio for a while I will say

Do you know what? I ask for animals in here all the time And I feel like Listen to that back Minikas here horses It is after the miniature pony Did a wheeze on the ground Yeah

Now you've got a lot of important women in your life Two more of them just want to have a little message for you boys Hi Fletch and Bourne It's Bev here Just want to have a little message for you boys. Hi, Fletch and Bourne. It's Bev here, Fletch's mum. Just want to congratulate you on 20 years. It just doesn't seem that long. You're a couple of rural boys.

Well, provincial boys, I suppose. And you've done very well in the big smoke. You paid to talk rubbish. Well, that's what John says, Fletcher's dad. I do remember when you started, you went on a rather dodgy road trip from down the country, from north to all the way down to Bluff with a goat. That was a bit weird.

But yeah, congratulations and all the best for the next 20 years. Hi guys, I am privileged to have a few words today. I remember, I'm pretty sure I remember this correctly, when Vaughan first started in the same radio station with Fletch, he wasn't actually meant to work with Fletch, but somebody left, so Vaughan snuck in. And I really don't remember them ever having a falling out over anything. They're like the yin and yang of radio. They get on very well together, but they are total opposites.

So congratulations, guys. A wonderful effort, and I hope that things continue to go really well for you in your radio careers. Bye. The mums of the show. Oh, that was nice. Isn't that nice? So a couple of questions just on the back of that,

and we are, that's what we're going to do tonight for our live shows and tomorrow. Get into the nitty gritty of how it all came to be. But who didn't turn up? Like who was that guy that you slipped in and took their job? Oh no, Alex was leaving, right? I was supposed to take over the night show. Mike Puru was going to leave. Right.

And then he didn't. And then Alex was like I'm going to go travelling So then Yeah It went from yeah Applying for the night show To applying for the drive show

What could have been And then you just slipped on in there And then the second thing Which I know we're going to chat about a bit But for those that can't make it to the live show You've never had a fight Not really Not really

We'll just say And then it's just That's it Yeah I was like Vaughan Come on Vaughan It is weird In 20 years

I was like Ah okay I worked, come on Vaughn. It is weird, in 20 years, I was like, oh okay, I worked out how to work the situation but when new people start, I'm like, oh, he's not angry,

he just raises his voice to get something done and then once it's done, he's sweet. He won't even remember that later so don't take it to heart. I love it. Okay,

well, should we play a little music and then we're going to come back and the celebration shall continue. Oh, so many... Receive it. This only happens once every 20 years. Today we are celebrating 20 years of Fletch and Vaughan.

Now, Vaughan's just cracked us a little whiskey. Someone messaged in before saying that we'd made a couple of mistakes with our words and said, you guys are clearly drinking. No, we aren't. Now we are. Thanks again to Bruce. Yeah, Bruce dropped that off to me.

His daughter's a flight attendant and her bottle of whiskey only available in America. We love it. Now, they do say not to have whiskey on an empty stomach. You wanted a cake. Cakes are for babies. What are you, a cold child? I'm a cold child that needs a cake.

Are you wearing a singlet under your T-shirt like a cold baby? But instead, we have your favourite food of all time. The boys love us, cinnamon scrolls. Cinnamon scrolls. Yay! I knew you'd get a sweet treat. Of course. Yum.

Juicy Shannon's coming in. Whiskey and cinnamon scrolls. Can we play this intro? This is what happens when I don't know what's happening on the show. Which intro? The one that's in the log. No, no, no.

No, no, no. Just a moment, mate. So we're deleting that. Okay, I'm deleting that. Seriously, when I don't know what's happening on the show.

Let's just see what happens, baby. Just go with the flow. Release. Breathe through the anus. Now, you're having a whiskey and a tinny scroll.

Through the pocket, I mean. Like, open it. I don't know what I'm saying. It's too tight. Now, looking at these cinnamon scrolls, we all want to enjoy one, but there's only one plate. And I don't know if you guys know this, but the 20th anniversary, the symbol for it,

the gift that you give is China. Oh, yeah. And so all of us, the four of us, have actually made you a collector's sort of set of China. Oh yeah. And so all of us, the four of us have actually made you a collector's sort of set of of China that we've actually

handcrafted all together. Oh, thick ass water. That's great. Yeah, that's lovely. So Jarrett's big plate has thick ass water and it's a woman's body

coming out of a tap because Fletcher's water is so thick it's basically a gel. That's great. There's a mini plate for a ramekin that says Vaughan's effort goes here. Yeah. I think this might be too

big to be honest. The one that I've made, the china plate to keep, is a tongue out saying ooooh a reference to a story we might tell tonight. Is that yours, Karwin? It's Fletch and Vaughan and saying friends forever. That's us in our silk bags.

Yay. In our silk suit. Good stuff. There you go. And Shannon's is two dogs that says Pawsome, but they look more like breasts than paws. Sacky, sacky breasts. But these are for you guys to keep.

Will these wash? Do not put them in the dishwasher. Do not put them in the dishwasher. What about hand wash? It's display only. It's display only. It does seem odd that you get to 20 years of anything and China, like some crockery is like the process.

Because bone China was very like ula-la back in the day. Oh, shit. So you could do spots on them. Bone handled cutlery. No, that was a bone handled knife. So you could do spots on them. What? Bone-handled cutlery. No, that was a bone-handled knife. You don't do spots on bone handles. Okay. You might want to blow those candles out, Vaughn E.

Wait a minute. We're just putting wax into the city's groves. Oh, blow them out. The bone handle stops the heat from getting into the handle, and it doesn't melt like plastic. Thank you so much, guys. You can call yourself New Zealanders. We're going to set this fire alarm off, aren't we?

Also, just a huge shout out to the producers while they're in the studio. You guys have done an amazing... So much effort into today and tonight, our live shows. It's going to be a lot of fun. It is. Thank you so much.

All right, Fact of the Day. Control back over to you, sir. Fact of the Day is next. Beyonce, ZM. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fletchvorn and Hayley. How are you going to sing Fact of the Day when you've got a gob full of city scrawls? I've got a moustache full of icing.

You're good now, that's clear. I know. And we're very late, so we've got to do this quickly. It is time for... Fact of the Day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Day, day, day, day, day. How good are those? Cinema scrolls.

All right. Fact of the day this week has been misnomers. Names for things that are incorrect. Then if we were given another chance, we would definitely not name these things. Today I thought I'd hit you with some quickfire animals that are named incorrectly. Okay, go. Ready. Red panda.

Not a panda. Not a panda. Oh, yeah, that's why. What is it? A bear? It's more closely related to skunks and badgers. Huh, okay. That sort of vibe.

Killer whale. Not a whale. No, it's not. It's the world's largest dolphin. Oh, and also those whale sharks. Whale sharks. And not whales or sharks. They're fish. They're just giant fish.

Is a killer whale not a whale? No, a killer whale's a dolphin. I learn here at Fact of the Day. That's the idea. I want everybody to learn. I learn things. I learn things. I learn more at Fact of the Day than I did at Queen Margaret College.

I learn more than at course. Did you do course? That was a different course. Yeah, you done course wrong. Because you were cutting hair. Yeah. Yeah, but I learned more hair than course. You'd be already new so much when you went to course.

Thank you. He done the pink. A king cobra. Not a cobra, not a snake. Not a cobra and certainly not a king. The king cobra actually eats cobras. So it's more that it's the king of cobras because cobras fear it. It lives as its...

Lowercase of. Yes. King of cobras. King of the cobras. Flying foxes. They're not foxes. Yeah, but we don't have those anymore because of the PC madness and playgrounds. Oh, no, no, no.

I thought you meant playgrounds as well. I was like, clearly not a fox. No, no. It's a fruit bat. Clearly a playground toy. Electric eel isn't an eel. No, it's electric. It isn't an eel.

It's closely related to a catfish or a carp. You can tell that it's because electric eels don't have the dorsal fin that eels have all the way down the back and then under the tummy. Jellyfish and starfish are not fish. Okay. To correct these, most marine biologists actually refer to

the jellyfish as jellies and have started a campaign to rename starfish sea stars. It's like koala bears. Also another one taken care of. Koalas.

And mountain goats are not goats. Are not mountains. Oh. What? Wow, look at that mountain. that walking mountain with four legs. And a horn. Not a mountain.

Horn. Not a mountain. It's that from the Boviday family, which mountain goats are more closely related to cattle, gazelles, and antelopes. Good fun. I enjoyed this week actually more. There was. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Now, to celebrate our 20 years of working together, Vaughan,

we have a wheel in the studio, a wheel of 20 prizes. Top yourself up, hon. Now, we've asked you to give us a ring if you want to have a spin on the wheel of 20. Tina, good morning. Morning.

She's her own Tina. No, she's her own Tina. Always. Tina is, of all the Tinas, our favourite Tina. I can't think of a better Tina. Very strong name. Strong name. It reminds me of Argentina.
