Yeah. Like, it's a whodunit. It is a real whodunit. And the ex-wife's like, no. Yeah. It's bloody terrible. I don. It is a real whodunit. And the ex-wife's like, no. Yeah. It's bloody terrible. I don't know. I will withhold judgment until the court decides.

But yeah, they're like, I think there was a police took a dehumidifier or something. No, no. Like, you know, one of those dryers? Because I think the mushrooms were in that. Oh, right. At the testing. I know people, you know, because, you know, white people love true crime podcasts. We do.

This is like people are just in on this story. Yeah, we're eating. It's unraveling before our very eyes live. God, I love mushrooms. I'd hoon a mushroom omelette. I know, same. But I wouldn't. I'd just buy them from the supermarket and I love noming them that way.

I don't think I'd be like if someone was like I've got these mushrooms from my garden. Yeah, I foraged these. Nah, no thanks. I'll be fine. I'd be too scared I'd bloody end up on the bloody magic carpet.

Or you're tripping in your backyard or in your kitchen. Yeah. Now today it's happening. We've got a big announcement at 13 minutes past 8.

8.13. Very specific time. We posted this on socials yesterday. Wow.13. Very specific time. We posted this on socials yesterday. Wow, have I had some DMs. Same. Like people are like, what is it? Matt, breakfast host, Maddie McLean friend. He tried you first.

He tried me and I said, wouldn't you like to know? Yeah, and then I said, he's tried me. What's this about? And he said, it's a secret. And then he goes, damn, I thought one of you were crack. I was like, you little shite. Yeah, I was like,

no, I can't say what. We are professionals. And we didn't say, did we? We didn't tell anybody. We certainly did not. I had so many messages.

Yeah, even friends, I was like, I can't, I just can't say. I just can't say, it's big news. It's pretty freaking epic.

Yeah, there will be some very happy and excited people at 8.13. Now, we've got to be on time. Will you just see? I'll follow your lead on that. Yeah, because we can't be late.

Open that up. That will be slightly delayed. It's got like a 30-second delay. 30-second delay. It'll be like 8.13.30 you'll hear that news. 8.13.5, I think we'll call it. Oh, you're.5, do we?

Okay, yeah. 8.13.30. Yeah, it's not 5, isn't it? It's 60, yeah. 813 dot or colon 30. Yeah, it's not five, isn't it? It's 60, yeah. Well, we'll see you at 813. Right on the dot. Yes. The top six is on the way.

Vaughan's still away. He's going to have the week. He's honestly just... We want to let the boy heal. The man flew. He doesn't handle it well. It's really gotten him. Yeah, I messaged him yesterday.

He said he's turned a corner. Oh, that's good. He's turned a corner, so he's just going to come back Monday. It sounds horrid, and so I'm glad he's not here. I don't want a bar of it. Well, I woke up this morning and was a bit snotty. I was like, I better not have what he's got. I've got a slight...

But it's more of a dryness because we're sleeping with the heater on at the moment. Oh, yeah. It's cold. Yeah. So I think it's just sapping the moisture from the room. But I'm doing in the top six. Exciting news for Australia, potentially Melbourne. Yeah.

Melbourne's put up their hand to host and, you know, build the first ever Australian Disneyland. Which is wild because you'd think they'd put it on the Goldie next to all the others. Yeah, maybe it's a point of difference. I don't know. How did Melbourne get so bloody cold over winter? I know.

Imagine sort of whirling through a roller coaster in three degrees in winter. No thanks. So I've got the top six things you can expect to see at the Australian Disneyland. Next on the show, the dangers of twerking. Are you saying twerking or talking? No, I'm saying twerking. Twerking. The dangers of twerking. Twerking. The dangers of twerking.

Twerking. Twerking. There'll be a few hungover people this morning. Luke Holmes last night. Oh, yeah. I've never seen so many people take a horse to Spark Arena. I've never seen so much denim. You get it first.

Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Friends were posting videos from that concert last night. I was like, I don't know any of these songs. I know that one. And none of them posted that one. And that's the song they were all like, oh, but he's got way better songs. Well, that's not his song.

That's not his song. Yeah. And all the purists are like, oh, no, it's not his song. Oh, no, no, that's a Tracy check. There's got to be plenty of other ones. Does he? Oh, like Two Boys R riding in the back of a truck I love two boys riding in the back of a truck

Yeah, there's always someone in a truck Hey there, girl, let's do a mouth rope This is great because they can't hear us Because they'll be hung over in a sleep All the Luke Holmes fans Yeah, absolutely Now, the dangers of twerking Twerking

So it's like walking, but there's a T in front of it Oh, okay. I got you now. Texting and walking. Oh my God, yes. Now, I mean, we don't really need a study to tell us this, but this is,

so researchers at a university, I think this is in Australia, they recruited 50 young adults. They had like a little walkway for them. They put a harness on them. Because they purposely made this track that they were walking on slippery. Oh.

And so they had a harness so they couldn't actually fall over and hurt themselves. But they asked people to just walk normally and then they asked them to walk and text. And it's not surprising but they did find while it may seem surprising, but they did find, while it may seem obvious,

but they did find that it's, your gait is, you know, the gait, which is the length of your stride. Yeah, you're not able to recover in time if you're texting and walking. Right. And they did find that you're more likely to fall over. Yep. So their hypothesis for this was that it would be more dangerous

to text while walking than just straight up walking. So texting speed and accuracy dropped by half on moderate risk walks. Oh, so also your texting is stupid. Also, you're slowing down your texting, yes, but that it does lead to increased falls if you are texting and walking. Which I do all the time. I've never had. I just remember the time you walked into a sign.

I didn't even think I was texting. No, you were waving to the tram. Waving to the little tram. I don't think I've had a texting injury, but I text and walk all the time. I do. If you ever walk up a busy street like Queen Street, because I walk down Queen Street all the time,

sometimes I'm the problem. I'll be just texting. It's me, hi. I'm the problem, it's me. Yeah. And then other times you're trying to just go home and everyone's on their phone, just like not even looking where they're going.

You're like, ugh. My thing is it's like, it's fine. If you want to text and walk and walk into a pole or fall into a pothole. I mean there's literally a sinkhole around the corner from our work. You want to fall into that thing God knows where it leads. Yeah. That's fine. But if it slows down your pace that's where it's impacting my day.

Yeah because you. Man I hate a slow walker. I know. And if they're slow because they're on their phone. Well some cities have tried like lines haven't they? And like texting lanes. Yeah. Like a bike line. Like a bike lane for texters. I saw an article that

said, I don't know if it was like scientists or people saying that there should be a function on phones like iPhone that when you're on the move you can't open apps that would have you typing. So you'd literally, if you needed to look at something, you'd have to stop, look at it.

But then what if you were like a passenger in a car or a bus? It would have to be able to tell somehow. It would ask you, are you driving? You're like, no. No, I'm just a very, very fast walker at 50 kilometres an hour. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Silly little pole.

Silly little pole. It is so silly, silly, silly. That silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. Today's sillyilly Little Pole.

Why did we start talking about naan yesterday? Oh, I don't know. We got sidetracks. Yeah, sometimes naan just pops into my head. Sometimes we get sidetracked by food chat. Yeah. I love all naan. I love a mall naan.

Yeah. I love a fancy Indian restaurant naan. Sometimes some mall naans are just as good. I love a fancy Indian restaurant naan. Sometimes some more naans are just as good. I love a stuffed naan. Yeah, and I love a roti as well. And I love a roti. I love it. So this is today's silly little poll.

Naan or? Roti. Roti. Now, I looked up the, because they're always like oilier and. Flakier. Flakier and like buttery. Like a pastry more than a bread. Yeah, so a naan is just bread and water basically,

whereas a roti is... Bread and water, flour and water. Yeah, sorry, what did I say? Bread and water. Flour and water. Don't water your bread. Don't water your bread. A recipe for disaster.

A naan, flour and water and a roti is a lot of oil. Yeah. And then flour and butter. Yeah. So that's how you get that like, it's so yum. When you get a good roti and it's like flakes apart, it's got layers, almost like a croissant. And it's really good in like a satay.

Yep. Or is it Penang? With a Thai or a Malaysian. Is it Penang the satay one? Yeah, Penang curry. Yeah, it's so good. Whereas like that's better than, yeah, but then your butter chicken or your classic Indian dishes, like you can't beat the cheese and garlic naan or a garlic naan.

Good thing with naan is you can stuff it as well. You get a stuffed naan. White people, good for you for putting cheese in it as well. You know, you get a cheese and garlic naan. You're like, why not? Yeah, I have cheese. Yeah. You know, you get a cheese and garlic naan, you're like, why not? Yeah, I have cheese. But roti also is, it's from India as well. Because I always thought it was more South Asian,

which also, and in South Asian countries as well. Well, there's lots of different versions of it, right? There's paratha, and then there's roti, and then there's, you know, every culture has its own flatbread. Even like Maori culture has a flatbread. I always just thought it was like Malaysian. And then the others were stealing from...

I'll have it any which way. You know when they do those like roti tacos? Like they use it as a wrap and then... While the people have spoken. You can only pick one, roti or naan.

69% said naan. With 31%. I knew naan with 31%. I knew naan would win because it's more popular. Yeah, of course. It's more places. We love an Indian. Some feedback. Kelly says there's nothing like scooping up a butter chicken juice

with a delicious garlicky naan. Am I right, Fletch? Basic bees, you know. It is so good. It's so good. I'll be honest. I don't even like eating the chicken in a butter chicken. When I was young, like when I was like 18, 19,

I used to always go to like mall curry places. And just say the sauce. Can I get a butter chicken, just the sauce? Yeah. I bet so many people do that. Because the chicken at the, especially food courts, is normally pretty young. The chicken's like.

Yeah, the chicken's a bit gnarly. It's been there for like a few hours. Yeah, it's gnarly. And it's tough as nails. It's tough as nails. But the sauce is perfection. Zenobia. Gorgeous name.

Zenobia says, growing up, rotis were for everyday meals, whereas nans were for special meals or occasions. Oh, okay. Now, as an adult, having a romantic... Having a romantic makes it easier to have rotis every day. Having a romantic? Having a romance, maybe.

Having a relationship, maybe. Hmm. I don't know, maybe Zenobia has grown up within the culture of having roti every day. Soz about it. I wish.

I wish. We had white bread. I mean, having just Googled the recipe, it's a lot of oil every day. Yeah, I know, but Zenobia looks gorgeous, so it doesn't take. Yeah, she is. I know Zenobia. Bailey says cheesy garlic naan dribble dribble. You've got to have that, like, cheesy garlic dribble.

Yeah. It's so oily. Sarah says, I find roti to be a bit sweet. Maybe the butter. Maybe the richness is kind of making it feel that way. Certainly the butter chicken is sweet because that's sugar and cream. It depends what you're dipping it in. It's literally sugar, butter, and cream.

Ruben says, my boyfriend chose roti because it is more when you rip it. His words. Ruben says, my boyfriend chose roti because it is more... When you rip it, his words. Now, that's been spelt W-S-S-H-K-L-K-S-H-H-K-S-H-K-K-K-D-O-S-O. I know, the flake, the flake. We love the flake. Heather says, roti with Thai naan with Indian. I mean, that goes without saying.

Yeah. But you could dip a naan into a panang and a roti into a butter chick. Yeah, you could. Flaky roti into a butter chick. A sel says, I changed my mind. Clicked naan and then says, I changed my mind. Roti. It's like an Indian version of a croissant.

It is. Yes, it is. It is. It is. Actually, it is. It is. It is. Actually, yeah, because how... South Asian. A roti, if you put, like, imagine spreading Nutella on it,

just like a crepe. Oh, my God, they do this in Thailand. Do they? Yeah, so you can get a roti, and they, you know those ones where, like, it's not a circle, but they stretch them thin into a square. Oh, yeah.

Almost crepe-like. Yeah. Fill it with Nutella and banana. Fold it up. Fold it up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sme Fill it with Nutella and banana. Fold it up. Fold it up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Smear butter on top. Yes.

Now we're talking. Like a little, yeah, like a parcel. Every day when I was in Koh Lanta in Thailand, I'd be like, go past this little stall with the sweet rotis. Sometimes they pour condensed milk on it. What? Yeah, man.

That's outrageous. Sometimes I just think like, I know that looking after your body leads for a longer life, but I'd rather a shorter life with condensed milk, banana, chocolate rotis every day than a long life without them. Yes, that's what I'll say at your eulogy.

Yeah. She wasn't here long, but she certainly did enjoy a roti with sweetened condensed milk, Nutella, banana. And that's how she chose to live. And that's how she chose to live. Yeah that's how she chose to live, yeah.

Oh, my God, I want it so bad. And then at your wake, we'll have those parcels of banana, Nutella, sweetened condensed milk, rotis. And you'll all enjoy them and be like, I get it, Hayley. Yeah. I get it. That's the little poll. It's a hard one, hard to pick.

Hard to pick. Play it. ZM's Fletletch Vaughan and Hayley. Now, an interior designer, I think I follow this woman. She always shares, like, if I was designing a kitchen, here's the five things I wouldn't put in it. Oh, yeah. So many. She does so many things that I've done.

Did she say corner cupboards? I hate corner cupboards. Apart from your corner cupboards. My kidney beans. Hayley's got this thing. You open the corner. Because, you know, I've got two corner cupboards. They're a nightmare.

And they suck. Because everything at the back you can never reach unless you get down and you're just like reaching in. But you've got those things and they're like a shelf and they slide out when you open the door. They're called kidney beans. They're by when you open the door. They're called kidney beans. They're by a company called Hetic.

They're amazing because you don't ever have to reach in. You pull them out and they go, like some snake. Snakes out. And the whole shelf

is there in front of you and then you push it in and it disappears. Must be nice. Must be nice. Must be nice. Must be nice. It certainly is.

Yeah. Yeah, she often says things that I've put in my house, and I'm like, I don't really care. I'm not designing my house to follow trends. But also, you're designing your house, or you put in things you want, right? Yeah. Yeah.

Look, how many taxidermy foxes does a house need? I don't care what your rules say. I say three. How many stuffed pheasants do we need hanging on a wall? You say none. I say four. Maybe it is too much. Nope.

I want people to walk in and go, ha! Yeah. Ha! Ha! Your house will be like a jungle when you get all your plants back. Oh, my God. Plants and animals. Plants and taxidermied animals.

Like some crazy old auntie's house. And when she dies, we're all going to have to go through it and be like, ugh. Oh, God. It's all covered in dust. Yeah. Anyway, she's given four tacky interior design trends that she has noticed on TikTok that she's like, ugh. Avoid. Avoid.

It just cheapens your house. It's going to make it look gross. Okay. Okay. The first one, LED light strips. So these are the strips that people put under their cupboards maybe, overhead cupboards or under their vanities. Because I've got them in my wardrobe and there's like a strip at the back. So good.

That's so good. Does she mean the tacky, like people put them in their bedrooms and they have like blue and purple bedrooms and that kind of. Yeah, you can do like, you can do different versions of it because I like those like soft strip lights that are under cupboards or under you know like, do you have them underneath your vanity in your bathroom or is that just a mirror? No, just my mirror.

It's a good mirror. People put them under and then it lights it up. Yeah, she was like they're adhesive, they also have a tendency to peel off and so you can see little bits hanging down and then you'll see the light line go oh you know then she's like but you can get proper ones you can get proper ones yeah you can get floor wall and ceiling lamps that can elevate the atmosphere from childlike to chic oh okay she says childlike now slat walls this is like a design feature where

you get like timber and put like slats against the walls. Like those louvers? Yeah, like a louver. Kind of looks like a louver. But you don't have louvers but you have louvers against the wall. Yeah. Okay.

Because timber's in at the moment. You don't mean like a timber... Yeah, like a timber slatting kind of... It looks like a louver door or like those louver... Curtain type things. Yeah, right, okay.

But you just have it on your wall as like a feature. She was like, it's a really popular DIY trend of trying to create a feature wall. Right. By like putting on a bit of texture to it. But she's saying no. Yeah. Oh, okay. She's like, often they don't compliment their surroundings.

It leads to a lack of style. It's such a huge gesture and it's hard to make all the other things go around it. She was like, try some delicate panelling. We're going to do some delicate panelling. Delicate panelling? It's such a huge gesture and it's hard to make all the other things go around it. Right. She was like, try some delicate panelling. We're going to do some delicate panelling. Delicate panelling? We're doing delicate panelling in our boudoir. Okay.

Yeah, you just get picture framing and you make little panels out of it. Okay. Stick it on the wall. Right. Good fun. She was like, it's been around for years. It's a very like old thing to do, but it adds a touch of elegance to any room. Lovely.

Now, one thing she says. So these are the tacky things she's seen on TikTok that she's avoiding against. Indoor plants. Wow, shots fired. Shots fired, I've got like 50 of them. Yeah, but maybe that's too many. Maybe this is her point. Indoor plants. Because I feel like I've got just the right amount

of plants, but you probably think I don't have enough. I've got maybe like 10. I think she would be on board with you. She says often indoor plants can create a cluttered and overwhelming environment. Sometimes it's overwhelming. And also it's just a lot of uptake. You've got to sort of duck through mine.

They're all hanging from the ceiling and you're like, ah! You have to kind of jump over one of my monsteras. Yeah, your monstera tries to trip you up when you come out of the bedroom. But she was like, it's too much. Pull back. A more balanced approach to houseplants. Right.

Strategically placing. I think you do this. A few statements stems throughout the home. Don't become a jungle. Yeah. I don't respect her. Does she say anything about Ford or Holden duvets or dolphin duvets? Oh, apparently she's all right with those.

But not indoor plants. Play ZM's Fletchford and Hayley. Play ZM. From the self-driving ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hi. Hi. Disneyland, or Disney in themselves, have for years said that Australia is too isolated from the rest of the world and too small a population to support a Disneyland or even a smaller Disney theme park or resort. Really?

Yeah, they've always said it's just like not many people would go there. I would have thought like the Goldie would have been a sitter for it. Yeah, I thought so too. And even, do you remember when Dreamworld had that incident where the people died and it kind of closed for a little bit and, like, people weren't going? Yeah. A lot of people were like, well, just sell to Disney

and turn it into a Disneyland. Yeah, like, you've already got the spot for it. But apparently Disney has not been on board and now there are multiple petitions calling for Disney in some form to come to Australia and first put up their hand as Melbourne to host this. Look, it's cute Melbourne

but... Didn't they just back out of hosting the Commonwealth Games? I mean they're sort of putting up their hands for things and then being like, oh it's too much. The only place you could do it would be the Goldie. Yeah. Because Melbourne gets way too cold. You couldn't be on a roller coaster on four degrees on a, you know. Hell no. Saturday morning in August.

With the wind whipping. It would be so awful. Yeah. Yeah, the Gold Coast would be amazing. And also, like, if the concern is that people aren't going to go, people trek to the Gold Coast to go to theme parks. Yeah, exactly. All the time.

Well, I've written the top six things you would see at a Disneyland in Australia. Number six, what's with all these mother effing snakes on these mother effing roller coasters? You know? Yeah, yuck. You'd just be riding through and you'd look and be like, there's a snake there, there's a snake, there's a snake on the track, there's snakes everywhere in Australia. You'd be on the log floam and there's a snake in there. Yeah. Ooh.

Imagine, I know. Water snakes swimming in. No, thank you. Number five on the top six things you will see at Australian Disneyland. They don't have Mickey Mouse. They've got Huck the Huntsman Spider. And he's absolutely massive. Yeah.

And quite terrifying. But I think Mickey Mouse is also quite yuck. You know, they've turned a mouse into quite a cute character. Yeah, they have. They have. Maybe Huck the Huntsman could become quite a cute alluring character. Number four on the top six

things you'll see at Australian Disneyland. There's a thongs shop and everyone's really confused. They're like, what? They keep going and be like, I am wearing quite uncomfortable underwear. I'll go pop in and get me a thong. No, no, that's not what we sell here. It's jandals.

Yeah. What is the origin of calling flip-flops jandals thongs? And why do they give thongs? That's, yeah, it's weird. And then the thong song and that confused people even more. Yeah, well, when are you singing a song about jandals? They're not sexy. Yeah, no.

Number three on the top six things you will see at Australian Disneyland. They have Mickey ears still that everyone wears, but they've got corks hanging from them. You know? That's pretty good. That would be pretty good. That's the Australian take on it.

That would be pretty good. And it helps to keep the flies away. Yep, love it. Number two on the top six things you will see at Australian Disneyland. Instead of the spinning teacups, they've got the spinning schooners. Oh, yeah. You know, you just jump into a bear schooner.

Yeah. Which is like, it's like a handle. We would call it a handle. Yeah, yeah. Or a pint glass. Yeah. You just jump into that and you spin around. While Kylie Minogue's I'm spinning around is playing.

Yes, yes. Is that suitable for kids though? Yeah, get in the schooner. Mom, I want to get on the schooners. Yes, yes. Is that suitable for kids though? Yeah, get in the schooner. I want to go in the schooners. Yeah, okay, it works. It works. And number one on the top six things you yourself will see at Australian Disneyland. There's way too many bloody Australians there.

Oh, yeah. To be fair, that's true of all theme parks, wherever you are in the world. Just any tourist destination, way too many Australians. Greece, they're there. Spain, they're there. France., wherever you are in the world. Just any tourist destination. Way too many Australians. Greece, they're there. Spain, they're there. France. You can hear them coming.

Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Big announcement. Make sure you're listening to 8.13. God, people are bloody hypothesising online. Mine was so wild theories. There was that bit of Brie and I, like, shocked.

My favourite is that Brie is joining our show and Vaughn's gone. I'm swapping. Yeah. That's not happening. Vaughn's not ill. He's taking a week of gardening leave. Yes. And then he's going to be shifting.

No, that's not what's happening. 8.13, you will find out everything. Vaughn just has the man flu. Vaughn just has the man flu. Vaughan just has the man flu. The man's got man flu. Now, for ever, and was it like you said Fitbit told me, how did 10,000 steps become a thing? I listened to a podcast on it.

I listened to this amazing podcast called Maintenance Phase. I remember you told me about this. Yeah, and they kind of break down diet, trend, and culture, and, you know, what it is. And it was like the myth of 10,000. It was a publicity thing, like most things. For Fitbit? It was just a nice round number. It wasn't for Fitbit, it was way earlier.

Right, okay. For a nice round number that was an easy number to sell. But they were like, it's well off. Like all medical professionals are like, no. It is. So a groundbreaking scientific review. Now this is based on almost 227, no. It is. So a groundbreaking scientific review, now this is based on almost 227,000 so a quarter of a million

people from 17 different studies found that the risk of dying early could be reduced in people who walk at least 3,867 steps. So just under 4,000 steps a day is enough for most people. If you do 4,000 steps a day is enough

for most people. Yeah. If you do 4,000 steps a day you're fine. Because that is like you're up and you're active

but it's it's not someone like you would you would probably do a lot more you live in a city you walk a lot you know

but someone who lives out they drive a lot because I usually hit like 8,500 a day and I'm always like oh and that 10,000 thing that's a lot. Because I usually hit like 8,500 a day. And I'm always like, oh, and that 10,000 thing that's been drilled into me, I'm always like, oh, I'm short. I'm short, I'm short.

But that's actually 8,000, that's a lot of steps. It's a lot of steps. And then like you're meeting all your other goals, so you're like. Yeah. Yeah. Well, see, I just prefer for the Apple Watch users, we'll know you close your rings when you set your goals. Calorie burn.

Yeah. Minutes burn. Yeah. Minutes exercising. Because I think that's the more important thing, right? Is like 30 minutes of steady exercise a day. For sure, being active. If that's a walk, your steps will be up.

But if you're lifting weights, you're not moving, you're not doing steps. Yeah. Steps is not the be all and end all. No, it's not. Because I've tracked steps and whatnot for like well over 10 years.

I got my first Fitbit and it used to go like vvv on my wrist when I hit 10,000. I'd be like, wee! Yeah, because it's a little misleading as well because you could do like 5,000 steps on a pub crawl, couldn't you? Or like between wineries. You'd be absolutely boozed. You're like, how? How have I hit 10,000.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Now, there is a podcast called Insanely Chill Pod. Okay. I like to give a shout out to them. They've shared a TikTok of a little snippet of their pod where they were saying, you know how there's that TikTok trend of like every guy's toxic trait, every girl's toxic trait,

every girl's toxic trait is to post something and then go back on their profile and see how other people are looking at it from their point of view. Yeah. We talked about this. Yeah. And theirs was that every man reckons

they could land a plane in an emergency. You know, like if ever the plane was going down, the pilot's unconscious. Okay. Every man believes in his core that if I had to, I could land a plane. I mean, people have done this in real life. I know.

Like, they've talked to air traffic control, and they've been like, here's what you need to do. Hello, my name is Brian. Hi, Brian. We're going to talk you through this. The pilot's dead. Okay. And then they talk them down, and they land. I know.

In my head, what kind of plane is it? Like, are you on? Because this makes all the difference. Like, okay, there's a little Cessna. You know those little ones you see outside the aero clubs when you land at an airport? Like a four-person or a six-person. Yeah, or like it's just enough for a couple of people.

Yeah. Is it one of those, which I feel would... No, I'm going to go your Boeings. Like it's an Airbus. Like you're on a domestic flight, and then all of a sudden they're like, guys, both pilots are dead. The plane is nosediving.

Because I said this just before, I think you could do it because I know you're a bit of a plane enthusiast of sorts. Not that you know anything about flying a plane, but you like planes. I like planes, but I don't know if I could... Vaughan and I have done a simulator. There was a there's places around the country

that you can pay money. I think you've got good. And I landed the plane. We had the simulation of Auckland Airport and I drove straight through duty free. But I did get it on the ground. And did you pick up a bottle of whiskey and a vodka on the way? I got a two for one special. I feel like you're a good, whiskey and a vodka on the way? I got a two-for-one special, yeah.

I feel like you're good in crisis. You're a good person to be like, right, I'm going to get... Let's do this. Let's do something. Yeah. I believe you could land a plane. Really? Okay.

If you sat in a seat and air control was in your ear saying, okay, fletch, there's going to be a red button, push that. Okay, now you want to grab onto the wheel and you want to do this and you want to lift up. I think you could do it. You think I could do that? Do you think you could do it? I mean, you'd have to, right?

Because it's that or you die. You give it a red hot go. So you give it an absolute red hot go. Other male on our team, DJ Jazzy P, do you reckon you could land a plane? Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Oh, wow.

With someone in my ear, I've... The absolute confidence. Yeah, I've played a lot of games. So... I think this is like a big thing. But also, a lot of the modern airliners are, you know, they can land themselves. And that's not like a go at pilots, but they can, if you push the right buttons, if you're told what

buttons to push, they can land themselves. But even without that, if I was pure joystick controls, I reckon I'd go to... Wow, they can land themselves. But even without that, if I was pure joystick controls, I reckon I would have got it. Wow, I love this confidence. I love because guys are like, I've played video games. Yeah, I've played a bit of Crash Bandicoot too, but I'm not landing a bloody plane, am I? I honestly, like,

I don't know if it's a gender thing, I would have zero confidence in landing a plane. I would be full panic. I once saw a car crash and I said to Aaron, stop, stop, slow down, slow down. He was like, we're not in the crash, Hayley. I just panic.

Right, Carl Wayne, Shannon, would you be confident enough to land a plane? No. No. That's so many people's lives in my hands. I didn't even think of that. Shannon, I can barely drive a V-Dub Golf. Actually, yeah, I don't want to ever be in a didn't even think of that. Shannon, I can barely drive a V-Dub Golf. Actually, yeah, I don't want to ever be in a car with Shannon driving. We don't need her.

Yeah. We don't need her flying a plane. Wow. But what if, so you're just along with a pilot friend in a little plane, and they have a heart attack and keel over. No, because now no one's talking to you, because they don't have the same. You drag them out of the seat, into the back, and then you put on the headset, and you're like, hello? And they talk to you because they don't have the same. You drag them out of the seat into the back and then you put on the

headset and you're like, hello? And they talk to you now. Could you not back yourself to do that? It's either that or you plummet into the ocean. I'm telling you, if you asked me to drive like Hayley's car, I wouldn't know what to do. Yeah, it's push start. The windows have a button.

Yeah. The Bluetooth, you've got to get that all sorted out. Is it just a guy arrogance thing? It's probably a guy arrogance thing. It's an absolute guy arrogance thing. I'm like running through my head, I'm like, breaker, breaker, niner, niner, mayday, mayday. Someone has invited us to have a go, not in a plane, at a Megazone in Silverdale.

I have a full flight simulator. Try and see if you can land a Boeing 737-800. There you go. That's just the one that Vaughn and I did. Is it? Not that one, but at a different800. There you go. No, that's just the one that Vaughn and I did. Is it? Not that one, but at a different place. Yeah, right. But the thing is, they were like, do this, do this, do this.

No, I want to chuck Jared in there because I'm loving the confidence and I don't want to crush it. I want to chuck him in there raw. No one in the air. Okay. And see if you can land this plane. We'll do it. I'll have a go. Hell yeah.

Fantastic. I love this. I love it. I'll have a go. Hell yeah. Fantastic. I love this. I love it. Quarter past seven. Next on the show, somebody has, I love this term, scraped.

I don't at all like that. Play it. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Now, somebody has scraped all of the Spotify wedding playlists. Over 100,000 Spotify playlists. Now, judging from these top 10 songs, these would be,

some of them would be when people walk down the aisle, but most of them would be the dance, the dancing, right? This is a playlist for the after the wedding. I think it's the dance floor. Yeah. Because you can't-

But there are a couple of like slow numbers. Yeah, they said that due to the variety of search terms, you can't specify which part of the wedding, the dancing, the ceremony, the vow, whatever. Right. So it's just the wedding songs, but I would say the dance floor. Right. But this would be an overwhelmingly popular top ten playlist for a wedding.

It's not my top ten. I'll tell you why when we get to number one. She's not happy. I am pissed. There's been an omission. There's been an omission. There's been an omission. Well, maybe you can finally have a wedding. I am trying, Carl.

I am trying. I know you're trying. Okay. Number 10, hit it. Yes! I'm on the dance floor already. You were surprised that Abba's only in at number 10, the only song in the top 10 for the wedding playlists.

I also would have accepted the ABBA Megamix. Okay. You know, it kind of keeps blending. Dancing Queen by ABBA. Number nine, Wannabe. You're on the dance floor. It's an absolute banger. Okay, number eight.

Now, I remember dancing to this at Maddie McLean's wedding. They had a poll. They were like, which are these songs? They had a poll at their wedding. I was like, get up and down it, man. You grind it. Go for it. Yeah. Again, this would like pull you to the dance floor if you were sitting down. Yeah. Mr.

Brightside by The Killers. I mean, it's any party you have, this song will just get people going crazy. And the neighbours complaining, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hopefully. Yeah, it will. Yeah, it absolutely will.

Okay, number seven. Wait, wait, wait, but we need to get on. Can I just fast forward it to the... Such a good song. And everyone's singing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a circle forming. A hundred percent.

Now, would this be Walking Down the Aisle, or would it be The Dance Floor, you think? Definitely The Dance Floor, this one. Beyonce. So, what's she in at six? Number seven. Oh, number seven? Crazy in Love, Beyonce.

Feet, her husband, Jay-Z. This would be First Dance, right? This would be First Dance, or would be, dance, right? This would be first dance Or would be like Maybe down the aisle I mean Ed Sheeran's got Some beautiful wedding bangers He's got a couple In the top ten as well

Would you call him Friend of the show? Friend of the show Do you think he'd come to Italy And actually just sing it for me? I'd say there'd be quite a fee I'd say there'd be quite a fee. I'd say there'd be quite a fee. Well, if I win the lotto on Saturday.

Maybe. Number five, He Remains. This would be... I found a love. First dance or down the aisle. Yeah, 100%. Perfect by Ed Sheeran at number five. This next one on the list...

Is it because of the shut up and dance? This next one on the list. Is it because of the shut up and dance? And I would say the generation of people that are getting married now would be the generation when this song is a banger, right? Yeah, but it was like, I mean, it was popular, but it's not like. This is a dance song, I guess. Yeah, I guess so. He's literally saying shut up and dance. Yeah.

That's number four. Now, I was considering this for the daddy-daughter dance. Yeah, okay. Me and Craig just dropping it low, you know? Number three is, yeah, Usher, Feet Little John and Ludacris. So this is, by the way, data from all this, if you've just joined us, from all the Spotify wedding playlists that have been scraped from around the world.

Yes. The top 10. So Usher at number three. Here's our top two. Number two, Marry You by Bruno Mars. It makes sense. Yeah, it does. Good for a first dance.

Good for, you know, bridesmaids coming down the aisle, a bit of fun. It's cute. I'm so happy this is number one. Generational banger. You love it if you're young. Nana's getting up as well. Nana loves it. I want to dance with somebody.

In your top ten It's in my top ten When it happens. Yeah. When? You tell me. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM.

Beyonce is on tour at the moment. The Renaissance World Tour. One of the biggest shows on tour. You'd say Taylor Swift and Beyonce are just dominating the world. I think once they finish these tours, both of them will be able to do nothing and just

print money, right? They're basically printing money. Sometimes I think about it. Oh, and Harry Styles, you would say he was also on a massive world tour. What's he just finished like 146 shows or something like that? Did you see the moment in his last show of the whole world tour? He just like fell to his knees.

I mean, you must just be exhausted, but like so emotional. But yeah, Beyonce's also touring at the moment, not to be outshone by Tay-Tay. And all artists have a rider, right? And a rider, if you don't know it, is like your requests, like what you need, what you want in your green room, what you want backstage, catering, drinks, requests, dressing room stuff.

I want this, I want that. And there have been famous ones over the years. Like was it an artist or a band that only wanted certain coloured M&Ms? Or, you know, things like that. Yeah, rumours like that. Like this person only wanted green M&Ms, so they had to buy all these M&Ms and sift through them to get green ones. I think there was Mariah Carey.

Yeah, yeah. Mariah Carey's always had wild riders. Yeah. Well, it's come out that on Beyonce's tour rider, it requests a brand new toilet seat at every venue during her Renaissance World Tour. Is that for, like, all the toilets at the venue? I think it would be for the ones she uses.

Yeah, just the ones she uses. Apparently, she ships out new toilet seats for her toilet ahead of every tour. She pays thousands for it. Toilet seats are different for each toilet. You know what I mean? Maybe they would research her, like team would research her head. What's the toilet? Find a seat.

Yeah. And then request. Like maybe they would research her like team would research ahead. What's the toilet? Find a seat. Yeah. And then request. Because my toilet, you can't put on a new toilet seat unless you take the toilet off. Because the screws are underneath. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, my God.

It'd be a nightmare for certain toilets. It'd be a nightmare for some toilets. So apparently they say that like her tour roadies have seen everything. Because she'd some wild requests and champagne, no doubt and all this. It's not a big deal for them, but it does raise a smile for people who catch a glimpse of a branded container and it says sometimes Beyonce toilet seats. And I've seen a photo of a crate.

Of toilet seats. And it says toilet seats and it's handled with the utmost care. I mean, to be fair, a lot of these venues, like, they're multi-purpose venues. Like, a lot of artists will go backstage and they're just in, like, a sports team locker room. You have been in these areas before. They're kind of nothing glam. They're nothing glamorous, yeah.

But these toilets would be used a lot. Yeah. And so she's probably like, ooh, I don't want to sit like we're sweaty basketballers. Yeah. She also gets a golf buggy decked out. Of course she does. In all black sheets to prevent being identified before and after the show. So you get a golf cart and sheath it in sheets.

Wow. I love these. So she doesn't travel without BYO toilet seat, essentially. Wow. And I want to know, what is on your travel rider? Like, what is the thing that you have to have? And I'm imagining you take it with you. Okay.

So, and I mentioned this on the show previously and I've done it for the last two times I've been away. Such a waste of space. For three weeks. And then for two weeks, I got a compression sack like from, you know, one of those tramping stores. And I put my memory foam pillow in it because it rolls up, smushes real, real small. Dense. And I pull the straps down and I take it and I have the best

night's sleep every time. I... Because, you know, motel pillows, Airbnb pillows, there might be a real slim one or a real thick one. And the whole night you're just like, but you take your own pillow. Am I Beyonce?

You're a bit of a Beyonce. I'm being a bit of a Beyonce. You're a bit of a Beyonce right now. I'm being a bit of a Beyonce. Because I don't give a toss what the pillow is. I love hotel beds. But then don't you get a bad night's sleep if it's a bad pillow? Yeah, but I'm on holiday.

Like I'll sleep in the morning. I'll sleep on a lounger. You know, I'll sleep anywhere. Yeah, right. It's a waste of space. We want to take your calls. 0800 DARS.M is the number. You can sleep on a lounger. You know, I'll sleep anywhere. Yeah, right. It's a waste of space. We want to take your calls. 0800 dials at M as a number. You can text as well.

9696. What is the thing you have to have on your holiday? What is the thing you take with you what's on your holiday rider? Do you have one of these? Yeah, but it's not appropriate for on air. But you've got to put it in the thing because it's got a battery.

Give us a call. 0800-DIALS-IT-M. What is on your holiday rider? What do you always take away? Brits are famous for this. They take tea bags. Oh, I know. They take their own.

Oh, I only like the Dilma. Talking about Beyonce, she's currently doing her world tour. Yeah, and one of the things on her rider is she ships in these toilet seats that she likes to every venue ahead of her arriving there so she can have a fresh toilet seat.

Do you think the venue then gets that seat or do they change it back for the other one and then chuck that one out? Well, if she's getting a freshie every time, but then who?

Because then, right, because if she's got her own toilet, she's going to use it, they'll sell it. Do you know what I mean? And so I think they'd dump them.

I think they'd take them and throw them. Because otherwise people would sell it on eBay and it'd become a thing. Imagine being so rich that you never have to follow someone

after they've done a dump in the bathroom. You never have to come in and be like, oh, for God's sake. You've just got your own. The only dumps are your dumps.

Wow. Wow. How the other half live. Yeah, must be nice. We want to know if you have a Beyonce rider, a travel rider. What do you take away with you on holiday? I mentioned my pillow. So many people are doing the pillows.

And so many people do this. So many. For me, it's all about space. What if I go shopping? Well, I'm going to ditch my pillow now and make room for more black sacks.

A lot of people saying pillows. Got to take my pillow everywhere. Pillow and coffee. For the coffee connoisseurs that love their specific beans. Yeah. Anthony says, I take my pillow

no matter what holiday it is. I can't sleep anywhere without it. It has to be my pillow. Nothing ever beats them. Someone says, my pillow, I don't wear face on some scody pillow other people have drooled on. I know, because when you think about it, all they do is change the pillowcase, right?

Yeah. And then you're still sleeping with someone else or thousands of other people have been like, all night and dribbling. I dribble. Every time I wake up, I dribble. Someone said 18 pairs of undies regardless of how long the trip is. Just in case I get the Calcutta splutter.

Is that what it's called? The Calcutta splutters? Barley belly. Barley belly, dally belly. Yeah. My friend packed full 30 kgs with a bloody iron to Rarotonga for one dress. No, no. The worst part is she actually ended up needing to use it.

Oh, she didn't end up needing to use it because the room had one. Most rooms don't. Every room has an iron, right? Yeah. Every single room. Yeah. Mine isn't, oh, yeah. Oh, this is a little tip for parents who are maybe spending a lot of time at the hospital.

Yeah. Fantastic tip for parents who are maybe spending a lot of time at the hospital. Yeah. Fantastic tip for parents. I always take my own coffee and plunger when I'm at the hospital. I've got a sick head. Right. Yeah, a lot of people take coffee and plunger on holiday. I take two European pillows. Euro.

Euros are like 50 by 50. But see, the thing with a memory foam pillow, it squashes down because the air, when you compress it down, it's still heavy, but it takes up hardly any room. Polyester or feather, you couldn't do it.

Nah. And they take room spray everywhere as well. Room spray. Oh, just have that scent. Okay, well, 0800-DARLS-IT-N keep your calls coming in.

Text 9696. What do you take when you travel? What's your holiday rider? Someone said, I've got a mate who's on tour with Queen Bee. Give us the goss, please. Get the goss. What's your holiday rider? Someone said I've got a mate who's on tour with Queen Bee. Give us the goss, please.

Get the goss. Get the goss. We're currently talking about the things that you have to have when you tour or travel. Yeah. Because Beyonce has to have a fresh toilet seat shipped in wherever she goes so that she doesn't have to put her beautiful arse where someone else's arse has been. You know? Imagine that's your job, installing Beyonce's toilet.

That's someone's job at every venue. Yeah. And then I'm guessing they put one of those seals at like a... Yeah, oh, like the cleaners put that like... Yeah, like at a hotel sometimes they put that little strip of paper. Yes. Yeah, that they've probably reused from another... Oh my God, and sometimes you get to the hotel,

you don't pee, you go out, you come home late, you're a bit booze, you sit down, you pee through it. Speaking from experience? Yep. Okay, right. So we want to know if you've pulled a Beyonce, do you have a holiday rider? What do you take with you? Anonymous, this was your bridesmaid. Yes, it was.

What did she take? So she traveled to our wedding, which was overseas the day after we did, and she brought her blender with her. Oh, my, what? Like a full blender? For a liquid breakfast smoothie? Yeah, the whole blender.

See, to me, you know what, then on the way back, you've got to go on that line because you've got something to declare because you've got fruit and blendy bits in your blender. Yeah, you've got blendy little seeds and stuff. Yeah. Yeah, and some sharp blades in there. Oh, yeah.

So that was good fun too. And then when we got there, we had to go and find the frozen avocado in the supermarket, which was also good fun. Oh, God. What a boy. Is she a health nut? Have an Eggs Benny like everybody else at the cafe.

Also, you're on holiday. You're on holiday. Calories don't count. Just fully committed. I mean, you've got to respect the commitment to the diet. Do you? Do you? When any of us are ever on a diet, there is zero respect for each other.

In fact, we're trying very hard to derail the other person. Come on. Let's have some cake. Anonymous, thank you. Stephanie, what do you take away? What's on your holiday rider? Actually, my mum, and she brings a white noise sound maker every time she travels.

Doesn't she have a phone? She does, but we bought her one a couple of years ago because she was asking for one, and ever since, she's just always brought it with her, and it's so loud, you can actually hear it through the wall if you're like this tall. Yeah, white noise is insane. I sleep to brown noise, and it's so loud you can actually hear it through the wall if you're like yeah white noise isn't I like I sleep to brown noise and it's much more subtle white noise is like

and you're like oh my god but she it sounds like a rainforest and it sounds like it's thundering outside sometimes and you wonder how the heck it turned from like a sunny day to a rainy day yeah yeah yeah how is she able to sleep through that but some people love it don't they oh my god I listen to brown noise and when I get in uh to my car in the morning my phone hooks up to a rainy day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How is she able to sleep through that? But some people love it, don't they? Oh my God, I listen to brown noise and when I get in to my car in the morning, my phone hooks up to Bluetooth

and my car blasts like and it's still playing the playlist. I'm like, every time. Stephanie, thank you. Let's go to Charlotte. Charlotte,

what do you take away on holiday? What do you have to have? Charlotte? We've lost Charlotte. Oh, she's gone. We'll go to text messages. Someone goes a step above the pillow and takes their own mattress protector.

I think you're going to say a step above Beyonce and takes her own toilet. Not quite. A mattress protector. No, because then have you ever stayed at a hotel or a motel and the sheets don't fit properly or you just, I don't know. They slip. You toss around and then they slip off and you see the mattress or the mattress. It's gross. You don't want to be changing the bed.

Yuck. Someone says wherever I go I have to take my mum. Oh, that's cute. Is that because mum pays everything? Probably a rich mum. My GHD can't be on holiday with a bad hair. Yep. Get that.

My sister used to take a tent with her when she stayed with friends in summer so that she had her own space if she needed it. Okay. Someone takes their weenie wherever they go. Well you never know when you get a neck sprain or a sore muscle. Yeah. I own a motel. We have so many pillows

in our lost property. It's the thing that people bring the most and then they forget to take them. They just leave them behind. Because I have the little compression sack to make it smaller. I tie that to my suitcase handle. And then I'm like, oh, that's right, because I've nearly done it so many times. And the final message I'll read, and it's just

because I feel like being nice to producer Jared, I always take my gaming dice, some spare character sheets and game books. Oh, nerds. Just stay at home if you're going to stay in a place and be dungeon nerds. You know? Stay in your dungeon, nerds. Stay in your dungeon. All right, we are 16 minutes, 56 seconds away from the big announcement at 8.13.

Join us for it soon. We've got the big announcement In just minutes 8.13 All can be revealed But first I came to work this morning I'm feeling pretty cute I'm in my

I'm in my like Uniform Which is a black sack Yeah And some kind of black cardigan Didn't you just get delivered Another black sack? Yeah but this one's iconic

Look at this This is fantastic They're all the same They all look the same And I've seen one that's almost identical from another brand. I'm going to get that one as well. Right. You can never have too many black sacks, it turns out.

That's right. Yeah. And I, we were talking this morning and I looked across at producer Carween and I said, oh my God, snap. We were in the same cardigan. And she was like, yeah, girl. And then I was like, my God. And then I dropped the name of the New Zealand designer. And she was like, yeah, girl. And then I was like, my God. And then I dropped the name of the New Zealand designer.

And she was like, nah, bro, mine's from the warehouse. Yeah. Wait, it looks exactly the same. Dude, look at this. I'm on the website of the New Zealand designer that I bought mine from. Who we love. Who we adore. Okay, how much was it?

Can I say, should I say the brand? Yeah. Koto. One of my absolute favourite brands. I adore them. Okay, yeah. And I support them because they use ethical cotton. Absolutely.

100% cotton. New Zealand made. A beautiful company. Yeah, okay. I spent $259 on mine. What? Did you? Okay, this is even...

To support a New Zealand company. But this makes it even more embarrassing for you because, Carwain, where was your... It looks identical. Well, I'm on the warehouse website. Listen, mine was from the warehouse. $35. $35.

It looks exactly the same. No offence to the brand. Well, it doesn't feel the same. No, yeah, yours is probably so much warmer. Mine's 100% cotton and it was made with fair trade cotton. Okay, you're right. Now, nothing against the warehouse. I also adore the warehouse.

Yeah. $35? Are you kind of wishing you'd just gone to the warehouse now? No, I'm happy to have supported a New Zealand company. I'm just saying, you know, well-played warehouse. Producer Jerry, can you notice a difference? No. Straight up, I can't.

I tried. I looked a lot. Neither, yeah. I mean, I can see, have you got a different pulley string thing? Yeah, mine's got a little bit more finesse to the tie. Oh, more finesse. Yeah, mine ties only in one place. Like, you can't choose where to tie it on your body. You can. I can tie mine front, back, side.

I mean, that's at least $200 worth. Alright, we're going to come back next with the big announcement. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. So our big announcement is at exactly, I can press play at exactly 8.13.

Well, it's just gone 8.11 right this second. So we've got to pad for two minutes. Well, let me pad a little bit. I've been padding since I was 11 years old and I didn't grow boobs at the same rate as everyone else. Okay. So you're a master padder. Right, okay.

I was many more padding for time, but okay. All right. Well, whatever way you want to pad, we're doing it. Now, you will know that girl Math is everywhere at the moment. We've landed on math. Girl Math. Not maths. It's a global agreement there.

Yeah. So thank you for helping us with that. It's everywhere. Like it's on all these websites. Everyone's talking about it. People are talking about it on podcasts. We're going to be doing, we've recharged the calculators. We're doing some Girl Math tomorrow.

Now, for those that have missed girl math, maybe that are new to the show. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome, hello. What we do with girl math is the girlies will help you justify any purchase you've made or are considering making by girl math.

Yep. Which is a means of basically just... That's my alarm. That's your Siri alarm that you set for a 12-part date for the nation. For the nation, you're welcome. That means we've actually got 50 seconds left of padding, so carry on. So we use Girl Math to justify that purchase, to break it down so that it doesn't hurt so much.

And it normally ends up being... Basically free. Yeah. I don't know if... Sometimes even you end up getting paid by the brand. It's unreal. If you've missed any of the other episodes of Girl Math, Girl Math, I should say, TikTok or Instagram,

join the other million people that have been watching it. F-B-H-Z-M to witness Girl Math. It's breathtaking. It's actually breathtaking. Guys will just be like, wow, this is how they justify it. Yeah, absolutely. She says with two windows open to buy more dresses. What does your watch say?

Yes. This is insane. No one has more Taylor tickets than ZM. We have managed to get our hands on an entire block of Taylor Swift tickets for the Eros Tour in Sydney. That sold out within minutes. Now, producer Carwain, probably one of the biggest Taylor Swift fans in the world. In the world. Where did you get tickets for?

So I do have A Reserve tickets, and I can tell you these are some of the best. Did we mention that? That's A Reserve tickets. We're not sho these are some of the best. Did we mention that? That's a reserve tickets. We're not shoving you in the bleachers. Now Ross Boss somehow has managed to pull this off and has used his

work credit card which by the way we've taken away the work credit card and sometimes it declines. I don't know. He had to like ask the boss, the CEO to up the credit limit. Yeah. It was a tense conversation, but we've got them. And they have been purchased, and we will be sending a lot of ZM listeners to Sydney

to see Taylor Swift. Now, I know people that bought flights and didn't get tickets. Have not. And so many people in that boat. I know so many people. I would say the majority of my friends who were online for Taylor Swift tickets missed out. Yeah. I would say I know less people who got them than did get them.

Than did. Yeah, exactly. And we've got an entire block of A Reserve tickets to see Taylor. Which is going to be amazing because that means like all of the ZM listeners will be in the same spot as well. You know how no one's got more sports gear than Rebel Sports? No one's got more Taylor tickets than ZM.

Is that like copyright or something? Who cares? I'm too excited. Who cares? So this is how it's going to work. From Monday, you've got to be listening to ZM at 8 o'clock and then at lunchtime at midday and then at 4, because we will be playing a Taylor Swift song

at each of those times. You've got to either use your mega memory or write those songs down, and when that third song plays at 4 o'clock, call 0800-DARLS-ZM. If you get through, the first caller you can name all three songs, you and a friend are getting those

tickets to see Taylor Swift in Sydney. No queue, no buffering line, no internet. Oh my god, oh my god, I'm logging out. What's my credit card details? You just have to listen to ZM. So listen on the radio or you can have the iHeartRadio app if you're at work.

Have a sneaky headphone in. Have a little ear button. Little one ear. Yeah, little one ear. Put your hair over the one ear. Yes, have your phone ready and be listening to ZM because that is your only chance to get to Taylor Swift. Can't get tickets anywhere else.

Amazing. And we've been sitting on this news for a long time. We were getting messages yesterday like, what is it? Tell us. Yeah, Maddie McLean, there's time. Like, we were getting messages yesterday like, what is it? Tell us. Yeah, Maddie McLean, there's your news. And a lot of people are like, oh, they're going to announce another show.

No, she's not coming to New Zealand, guys. She just cannot. Even though there's like, someone set up a fake event for her at Spark Arena in Feb. I don't know how that's happened, but that's certainly definitely not happening. She is not coming to New Zealand. This is your only chance to see Taylor.

Are you getting notifications as well from friends? Yep. Yep. Look, it's not in our control. You've heard the rules. 8, 12, 4, call up. Name the Taylor Swift songs. We can't swindle tickets.

Yeah. Look, we're not even giving tickets to ourselves. Some people decided to give tickets to themselves. Some radio stations kept the tickets to themselves and went themselves in there. They're selfish people. No, we're not allowed to go because we give tickets to themselves. Some radio stations kept the tickets to themselves and win themselves in there. Those selfish people. No, we're not allowed to go because we want you to go. Now, as well as the tickets, we know that some people didn't manage to get flights.

So we do have some flights to get you there as well. Yes, so every person that wins a double pass will also go on the draw to score flights return for two, all thanks to Air New Zealand's Grabber Seat. What more do you want? What more do you want? Exactly. Well, be listening from Monday.

You can text Taylor as well to 9696 if you want all those details. Otherwise, be listening Monday. Okay, phone lines are going to go crazy. I'm so glad to have this off our chest. We've been sitting on this. Everyone's messaging in.

What do I need to text? My text. Where am I texting? What am I texting? You just need to listen. Someone said, oh, my God, I'm in the boat. I bought flights, didn't get tickets. You've got to be listening.

We've got tickets. Flights is hard because you can't offload those easily because they're in your name. You can't change the name. Yeah. One thing I think that is going to make this really, really fun is our tickets that we have, the A Reserve tickets to Taylor Swift in Sydney,

is in one block. So you'll be going with a whole group of ZM fans. Swifty ZMers. We're going to need T-shirts. It's going to be a party. We're going to need a uniform. We're going to need a team organiser. Yeah, 100%.

We're going to get T-shirts. We're going to have someone with a flag being like, follow me. Yeah. Follow me. Yeah. Go to the toilet now. Go to the toilet.

Guys, 10 minutes till she's on stage. Toilets, please. We need a camp mum. Exciting. So make sure you're listening from Monday. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. And people tried to get tickets. People had flights as well.

Missed out. It was very hard. The pain a few weeks ago. But we have announced that we do have more tickets for you to win. And you've got to be listening to ZM 8, 12 and 4 o'clock from Monday. We'll play a Taylor Swift song. If you're the first through at 4 o'clock

after that third song plays and you can name all those three songs, you win a double pass. It's that simple. To see Taylor Swift with a friend live in Sydney. Yeah. So excited. No one has more Taylor tickets than ZM.

That's right. And everyone is messaging in. Someone's saying, oh, my God, I'm going to be at school at 12. Now look. Now look. Because I went to a private school. You had to have your hair tied up. I would do this, one ear pod in one ear,

listening to the iHeartRadio app. Then I would pull my hair down over my ears into a low ponytail. No one will know. No one will know. No one will know. And then will know. No one will know. And then at 12 o'clock, you've got to write down that song. And if you're busy at 4 o'clock or you're still at school or maybe the thing, just put up your hand and say,

I think I've just begun my period. Now that will, a teacher will let you leave the classroom immediately. And same if you've got a work meeting too. Yeah, that's right. Also, I feel like Facebook, like the Facebook groups, like the ZM Insider fam, I feel like people will share this info. Yeah.

Or people are just going to set up group chat. Maybe you can go in with friends if you can't listen at all times, but you can listen on the iHeartRadio app as well or on ZM from Monday. It's your chance to win Taylor Swift tickets and we've got a lot to give away. Yeah. So many people are absolutely excited on the text machine. Someone said, how many tickets are you guys giving out? It is a huge block. Yeah. Yeah. So many people are absolutely excited on the text machine. Someone said, how many tickets

Someone said, hoping and praying right now. I've got my flights and accommodation. I have flights and ACOM. I'm going to get these tickets. Screaming, crying, throwing up. I sobbed when I didn't get tickets.

This is my only chance. I love you, ZM. I am New Zealand's Swifty, self-titled. I love you, ZM. What night? We've got all the details will be available to you. I've never been happier to wake up at 8 a.m. We love ZM.

What number do we call? 0800-DIAL-ZM. That will be at four o'clock when you've heard all three songs. Now, all the details, if you want them, you can text Taylor to 9696. Now, also, over the course of this promo, we are going to put everybody who wins a double pass in the draw for return flights for two, thanks to Air New Zealand's Gravesy. A teacher just texted.

I think I'm going to let my students keep their phones on them, and I'll have mine on listening to iHeartRadio too. So the teachers will be in the classroom playing ZDM. The teacher will want the tickets. The teacher will be trying for the tickets as well. Everyone gets a fair chance. You've got to listen. You've got to call. That's true. I have work at four. We've given you

all the tips to be listening. I think you're just going to have to be five minutes late for work, right? Absolutely. Sorry. Alright, it's time for Fact of the Day Day, Day, Day, Day. Today's Fact of the Day.

You're loving this with Vaughn away. Vaughn's got the man flu. He'll be back on Monday. He's just going to take the week. He sounds like a raspy, gravely... He really does. And that is God's honest truth. We keep getting so many texts being like, no, but where is he?

Yeah, like there's a lot of conspiracy. He's sick. He's really, really sick. I think it's a chesty, like a chest cold or something. We're talking weasel. We're talking phlegm. We don't want any of that. We don't want that disgusting phlegmy mess in the corner. That's right.

But he'll be back on Monday and we miss him dearly. God. That sounded quite sincere for all the conspiracy theorists. Theorists, they could have believed that. I got a degree in acting.

I can tell. Now today's fact of the day, I stumbled across yesterday when looking for yesterday's fact of the day. Yes. And I just feel like it's a week of learning for me. This is going to blow my mind. Yeah.

I don't think I'd ever really thought about it. This is a fact about baked beans. I love baked beans. Do you go skitty or beans? Beans. Always beans. Yeah, always beans. Great with scrambled eggs.

Great with scrambled eggs. You know like a breakfast buffet, the always beans. Great with the scrambled eggs. Great with scrambled eggs. You know like a breakfast buffet, the beans are always good for the dried eggs. Yes, yeah. And a bit of moisture. A bit of moisture. Yeah. I love baked beans. Proats, brah?

Yeah, it is. It's got good proats. Proats, brah, yeah. Well, today's fact of the day is that baked beans do not get baked at all. It's all a lie. Why are they called baked beans then? God knows. What are they?

They're steamed beans. Oh, that doesn't sell as well. Do you want a can of steamed beans? Steamed beans. Steamed beans. So baked beans as we know them in the can are put in uncooked with all the sauce and whatnot. They're cooked in the can. So they're basically like boiled or they get steamed. They're cooked in the can. So they're basically like boiled or they get steamed.

They're cooked in the can? Yeah. What? Yeah, so they get put into the can. Like raw dog? Yeah. Raw dog beans? They have Native American roots, the baked beans.

Right. Oh, I like that. Cooked by indigenous people in the northeast and belong to tribes. I love this. Now, yeah, usually they were originally baked in clay pots, right? And they'd be baked in kind of like an oven type thing with maple syrup along.

Do they have eggs as well? I'm sure the early Native Americans had eggs. Did they have a breakfast buffet though? I don't think early Native Americans had breakfast buffets. With those weird skinny sausages? With Baymaris. Yeah, like weird skinny pork sausages that you're like, thick skin on them. So they put beans in a clay pot with maple syrup,

sometimes venison meat, and even bear fat, which created a high-calorie, high-protein, high-fat meal, which when you're, you know, living out in the wild, hunter-gathering, you need that energy. And then the beans that we know them now are not baked at all. They're just beans in a sauce, put in, and then put into a water, and essentially they steam themselves inside the can. Insane.

And yet we still call them baked beans. My whole life is a lie. Because when I think of steamed beans, I think of green beans. Yeah, like an edamame or something. You think edamame or a string bean or a broad bean. But baked beans, in fact, and this is today's fact of the day, are not baked at all. Fact of the day, day, day, yesterday, producer Shannon was at the blood labs.

Yeah, lab tests. Lab tests. Do you, um, because I do my blood tests every now and again. When you get a check, do you have a favourite arm? Mine's this one. So I only have one vein that works. I had to go twice into the same vein. Yeah. You failed it twice.

Because once when I was getting, when I got my wisdom teeth out, the aneth... You've got it. Yeah. He failed it twice. Because once when I was getting, when I got my wisdom teeth out, the aneth... You've got it. Yeah. Aneth... Anethanatism. The anethanatism. The anethanatist.

He said, oh, you'd make a great junkie. I was like, I don't know if you should be saying that. Oh my God, give it a go. Look, can you see how veiny that is? Yeah. Although I did have a trainee like a year back and she took a couple of goes. Yeah, I had to have a few goes, but I've got little baby ones. Oh, do you?

Yeah, they use a child's needle on me and they charge me sometimes for it. Good Lord, it's not your fault that you've got anybody little, little, little way. It's called a butterfly needle. She's got tiny veins. Anyway. She's delicate. So she's waiting to get her little, tiny veins sucked out. And so how lab tests work is you go up and you scan yourself in

and then you just sit there and wait. And they call your number. Yeah. And I was headphoneless, so I was just enjoying the atmosphere of a waiting room watching, you know, Giggle TV. Anyone? Yeah, I love that.

And there was a couple across from me and they started talking about their wedding and I couldn't help but listen, you know. And she starts describing her wedding dress to him and I thought that was quite interesting. She's like, so it's not a long dress, it goes to about the knee and like she starts sharing all these things.

I was like, lovely. And then they start getting a bit like tense and then she was like, if we don't get married, well, we'll just have to do a party on the day anyway. And they were talking about that they were going to Vegas. And it just kept escalating and it turned into a bit of an argument about their wedding. In public?

In public. In a tiny, like, waiting area? I'm the only other person in this room. And them and me, there was only one phlembologist working. A what? I'm sorry, a what? Phlebotomist. Phlebotomist.

Phlebotomist. Phlembologist. Phlembologist. No, it's a phlebotomist. No, it's a what?? Phlebotomist. Phlebotomist. Phlebotomist. Phlembologist. Phlembologist. No, it's a phlebotomist. No, it's a what? A phlebotomist. Blood. I know it's PB something, isn't it?

Phlembolonist. Phlebotomist. You're thinking of someone that takes blood and bolognese. Phlembolognist. Yeah, phlebolognist, which is someone who also loves bolognese. Yeah. It's a common mistake. Yeah, it is. It is. Wow. You've mixed up Fleb-bolognus Which is someone who also loves bolognese Yeah It's a common mistake Yeah, it is

It is Wow Apologies to our phlebotomist listeners Yeah, sorry Yeah, so Okay, so the phlebotomist It was you, the phlebotomist And this couple

Yeah And they're having a full-on argument So then it just kept going And I was messaging you guys Like, guys, I'm getting some juice on this wedding I know This is great Yeah, and it just kept going.

And then they get called to go in and the girl goes, oh, so you're not going to come in with me then? And he's like, oh, okay. And he followed her in. Wow. I love when you see a couple having an argument in public. It's so great to watch because you just see one sulking. I know.

And then sometimes one of them's just like trying to talk and make it better and they can't. Or they're going like, lower your voice. Yeah. Lower your voice. You see it travelling a lot because like obviously that's when couples are really stressed. Yeah.

And it's like, you take the kids. You do this. You sort them out. Do you and Aaron ever have any public or do you, when you're in public, do you just wait till you get home? We let it brew till we're behind closed doors. We've never had a public fight. Never even in the back of an Uber or anything.

Right. We'll keep that for private. I've definitely seen them before, though, like sitting in a cafe. I'm pretty sure one of them was like dumping the other one. And the other one was like, you're dumping me? And then I ripped into why they should be dumping them. In front of everyone at the cafe. And I've got those headphones where you can put them in,

but you can turn off your music and push a button and it brings the atmosphere in. Yeah, kind of almost like make some hearing aids or spy listening devices. So I did that and I was like, do-do-do, having a good show, basically. Well, we want to take your calls on this because there's nothing better than witnessing.

I mean, it's obviously not great that this couple's arguing, but there is nothing better than just sitting and listening. It is. It's sitting and listening to another couple having an argument in public, especially when it's over something silly. I know. Have you been witness to a public argument

and better yet, can you tell us the details of it? Yes. Maybe I'll admit to you having a public argument yourself. Yeah, absolutely. Maybe you just flipped down and you just couldn't keep it in anymore. It just built up and you boost. And then you're like, oh, that's right, I'm in the supermarket. No, that's right.

Yeah, I'm in the middle of a movie. So maybe you've witnessed this. 0800 dials at Amazon number. Give us a call. You can text her as well, 9696. When were you witness to a public argument? We're talking about when you've witnessed a public argument. Producer Shannon was giving blood yesterday

and witnessed a couple arguing about their wedding. Yeah, like for everybody to hear. Now, some are messaging saying that they witnessed a very old couple fight about a girl that he had seen 20 years ago. So Nana's still going, that B from 20 years ago. Still bringing it up. Drop it, Nana. Yeah, I know.

Even if he wanted to do anything about it now, he probably couldn't. Yeah. We had a couple fighting in our car park at work. She disappeared for a minute, came back and smashed his windscreen with a spade. Oh my God. I love that. I mean, not great if it's your car or your relationship, but great to witness.

Keep them coming in. At the moment, though, we are talking about when you may have witnessed a public argument, as Shannon did at the blood centre yesterday. Now, Tiana, you witnessed an anonymous person, we'll say, having an argument. Yes, I did. The anonymous person was a really well-known rugby coach in New Zealand. Okay, well, there's only a few of them, isn't there?

Oh, juicy. All right, well. Juicy. I've got a few faces in mind. I took my kids to a cafe just to grab a coffee and some cake and I was enjoying the cafe and he walked in and I kind of started fangirling because I was like, oh my God, it's a famous rugby coach, you know.

I thought you were going to say it. I thought you were going to say it. And I was like. He put his finger on the fader to be like, nope, shut up. Secret, secret. Okay. And he came and sat down at a table and there was already a lady there waiting at the table.

So I was like, oh, okay. So, you know, I didn't think anything of it. And then I could hear the change in tone in their conversation. And I was sitting on the other side of the cafe, but you could hear really, really clearly. She was very deliberate, very slow. And like it was like those whispers, but really loud whispers. I'm not going to tell you. And this is in front of everybody.

Yep. It was a full Saturday morning, full cafe. Oh, heaving. People around. And could you kind of tell what they were arguing about? Yeah, totally. She was very, very angry about their recent split and was very angry at a stupid, insert expletive, insert expletive.

Oh, wow. Okay, wow. So, okay, a bit of... Going to... Yeah, wow. Someone's been playing around. Oh, my God. Tiana's got the golf.

In front of everybody. Everybody. Save that for, like, I don't know, the car park and then go get a coffee. Yeah, especially if you've got a public persona. And then just talk in the car park where no one is around. Tiana, thanks for your call. Some messages in. So many.

A lot of people don't want to talk. No, fair enough. I was in the supermarket one day, saw this couple walking around, didn't think too much of it until a courier driver turned up and started yelling at the woman out of the blue. Turns out he was her husband and not the guy she was with. All hell broke loose and it was such a good watch. Wow.

I saw a couple having a screaming match in the mall. He walked off so she followed him and then threw a cigarette at him. I was sitting outside my motel early one morning and I heard this lady having a full-on row over the phone. There was a fair bit of swearing. Then at the end she just said, yeah, I love you too. Yeah, I love you. And then hung up.

Funniest thing I've ever heard. Wow. My husband and I argued in the Uber last Friday night after a work event. He told me another woman we work with is the trigger to my bad attitude at home. How dare he? Safe to say, silent treatment. Stayed the rest of the weekend. I love this.

But is she the trigger? Have they worked through that issue? I'm not sure. Right. Working in retail, couples would often fight in front of me. One lady stormed out of the shop and her husband stayed for like 10 minutes and he decided to go see where she was and she had got in the car and left without him.

That's because some guys will tell the truth about how things look when they're trying on clothes. You just obviously lie. Yeah, is this cute? Yeah, of course, yeah. God, no. Your boobs look funny. What's with that? You got a proper bra on? You don't even, I mean, if you, of course, yeah. God, no. Your boobs look funny. What's with that?

You got a proper bra on? You don't even, I mean, if you can get away without answering that question, you're doing well. No, you can ask the question and you can answer it as long as the question is, do I look good in this? And the answer is, hell yeah. Hell yeah, you look great. And no hesitation. No hesitation. No hesitation.

No hesitation. Get in there. Oh, my God. The person texted in, she is the trigger. She's like his work wife and I'm his real wife. There you go. Sounds like we've got some issues to work through there. Yeah, perhaps a bit of counselling there, guys.

Yeah. A little bit of counselling. See you, see you later. Actually, I'm going to have to stop you there. That's copyrighted. Suzy Kato's a very good friend of mine. She's already sued me twice. So if you could maybe get her to drop her stop you there. That's copyrighted. Susie Kato is a very good friend of mine. She's already sued me twice, so if you could maybe get her to drop her litigious action,

that would be great. Tell her I'll review her five stars if she does the same for this podcast, and then she tells all her friends. And if you're listening, maybe give it five stars as well.
