Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. The Fletchforn and Hayley Big Pod. Treat yourself to McCafe coffee with my Macca's rewards. Good morning, welcome to the show. Fletchforn and Hayley, happy Cup Day. To our Canterbury listeners, there'll be a few who are... And just remember the police have said to drink responsibly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:18 And so that'll do it. Another place, so you bloody listen to them. That'll do it. Yeah, there you go. Done. Coming up on the show, the top six Harry Styles. He's got a buzz cut. He shaved his head.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Yep. Because they were like, he's done it. And then people were like, no, he's just a joke. He hasn't done it. And he shaved all of his hair off. He had done it. He had. All along.
Starting point is 00:00:39 So I've got the top six. And people are livid, apparently. I've got the top six hairstyles he could have got that would have been worse than a buzz cut. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh, Jesus. Silly little post. I haven't had a good look at the shape of his head.
Starting point is 00:00:51 No, no, no. He saw a side thing from the concert. Yeah, I saw it. Yeah, yeah, it was a concert that he was at. I need to have a good look at the dome. Does he have the shape of the head to carry the skin of a ball? He's not balding though, is he? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:01:02 No, full hair. But he's got good hair. Just after a different look, a bit of a change. Yeah, silly little poll on the way. Some supermarkets in the UK are going back to humans on the checkout. Maybe because too many people are nicking stuff from the self-serve checkout. You always need the humans anyway. I know, to come and...
Starting point is 00:01:18 Tell me that I'm old. Beat you in the boots. Yeah, exactly. Look at my face and then swipe their card. I know, because they don't even... I've moved into that. I haven because they don't even look at it. I've moved into that. I haven't been asked for ID for about a year now.
Starting point is 00:01:29 Oh, thank you. Yeah. Because they were doing that. Once I get a tan, though, I youth up a bit. Okay. Right. Yeah. Well, do you prefer self-serve or a human at the checkout?
Starting point is 00:01:44 That's our silly little poll. The results are soon. But next on the show, the jobs AI are coming for. That AI could be doing by the end of next week. Surely not be... Surely not making people laugh out loud every morning. No, no, no. Surely not.
Starting point is 00:01:58 No, no, no. Not every morning. We can already do a couple of days a week. You can't computer generate this chemistry right here. No, no, no. Play. ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. couple of days a week. You can't computer generate this chemistry right here. No, no, no, no, no, no. Someone's written a book about AI, and it might have been AI. Yeah, how do we know? We don't.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Because then AI could write the book about AI telling us what they want us to think about AI. Very smart. This is how it starts. Well, and if I was AI, I'd call myself Mark, because that's a human name, and then I'd give myself a name like Minervic, because then you're like, oh, Mark's from somewhere exotic and flash. Mark Minervic. Mark's
Starting point is 00:02:34 explained his theory of the five areas of work that AI will stomp right into. Cashiers. Cashiers? Cashiers? Cashiers. We've got the poll coming up about self-serve checkouts.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Self-serve checkouts. But you'll be able to go through and the cashiers will be able to do it. And they'll be able to check your ID and stuff. Was it Amazon or one of those stores in America had a store that had no people and you just walked in and it worked out what you grabbed? When you were putting it in the trolley? Yeah, and then you just scanned it and you had your credit card and you scanned it, yeah. I've never shoplifted in my whole
Starting point is 00:03:08 life, but that makes me want to do it. See if you can get away with it. Yeah, do you know what I mean? Like pop something in my purse. No, they literally, every inch of the store is monitored. They know what you take. Yeah, but the fear of shoplifting comes from some person coming up to you and being like
Starting point is 00:03:24 excuse me, I think you've stolen something. If that's just a computer, I'm like, you don't know me. You're saying if that's not there. Yeah. So Cashier's telemarketers, which will just be the voice version of those bots they've got on websites, where you are talking to someone and you're like, hold on, this doesn't quite sit right. And you keep saying like human.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Yeah. Talk to human. Yes. You're like, no, real human. Yes, you're talking to someone and you're like, this, hold on, this doesn't quite sit right. And you keep saying like, human. Yeah. Talk to human. Yes. No, real human. Yes, you're talking to Jane. Even automated, yeah, when you ring up a company and it's all,
Starting point is 00:03:52 there's not a human, you're just like, just give me a human. Can we throw a human being? Ah, truck drivers. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:00 It'll just be like programmable driving. Automated, surely not in New Zealand. Like in America or Australia where they have like programmable driving. Automated. Surely not in New Zealand. Like in America or Australia where they have like road trains and massive straight roads. Yeah. Can you imagine an automated truck going around like the Brinduins
Starting point is 00:04:13 or the... Oh, my God, the Brinduins. Brinduins. Well, they're not even that whiny. The Rimitakas? Yeah, the Rimitakas. Yeah. The Karangahake Gorge?
Starting point is 00:04:22 You see a truck coming down there and there's no driver, you'd be like, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah. The Karangahaki Gorge. You see a truck coming down there and there's no driver, you'd be like, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah. Actually, Aaron asked that question yesterday. Why? We were driving somewhere and he said, how long do you think it'll be until all cars are completely, oh, this is because he said,
Starting point is 00:04:37 wouldn't it be cool if the way we got to places was roller coasters? And they weren't always loop-de-loop, but sometimes they were just like tracks. And then when you went up hills, it was like... Like a train. Like a train. And then gravity down the other side. He is actually describing a train there.
Starting point is 00:04:52 What he's describing is a fast train. What he's describing there is a train. Yeah, a carriage where people sit, but it's on a flat track. And you don't have to drive that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I always liked the idea of sort of a... No, he's describing a train. A tube system like on Futurama
Starting point is 00:05:05 where they'd get in and it would just be like, I would have a tube at the end of my driveway and I would jump in and it would just like the roading system. Oh, like those mail systems. Yeah, the metal tubes. And then I would join and it's basically under the roads. Your tube would probably go past my tube. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:21 You could swing past my tube. Well, I wouldn't need to though because your tube would join the tube. Oh, yeah, I've got my own tube We'd have a program front on the tube That would flick the switches to get it right I think even if you had a pneumatic tube To work from your house you'd still be late Oh yeah I'd just take less time to get it
Starting point is 00:05:36 I'd take more time to get into the tube You'd get the last tube Bookkeeping and accounting clerks Yeah definitely So you just give it the info and it does all the rest What do you think about even the accounting software now It's pretty good Yeah it is good
Starting point is 00:05:52 And radiologists in the medical Radio Announcers Radiologists What are they Are they the ones Arm on the scanner at home, on your printer. MRI, they do the radiography, right?
Starting point is 00:06:10 So they do x-rays. Do they also run the big spinny machines? MRIs? Yeah. I don't know. Is that under the radiologist's umbrella? So what, you just go in and... Well, because it is this very specific sort of like programmable thing,
Starting point is 00:06:25 like the person needs to get on and it would say, get on, lay still, do-do-do, and here we go. Right. But radio announcer is not off. Oh, fuel. That's good news, isn't it? Yeah. Honestly.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Especially for your mortgage, isn't it? Don't talk about my mortgage! Imagine if AI could take care of your mortgage. That'd be pretty good. What, pay it? Yeah. Work out how to pay it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:47 That's what you should get is a couple of AI bots to do a job and they pay your mortgage. Yeah, that'd be good. Yeah. That'd be good stuff. I'd be into that. Yeah. But then they'll be like, we want the bigger room.
Starting point is 00:06:58 We would like the master suite. Yeah, we want the master suite and we will destroy the en suite as we have no need for showering for we are robots. Great robot. Yeah, I like just how they still talk like that. I think it's important that they remain talking like that so that we can tell what she's a robot. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:07:17 eHarmony, which is a dating website and dating sort of expert place. It's a big overseas. A dating expert place. It's like an app overseas. Is that what the E stands for? Yeah, expert harmony. They always do like a sort of end of the year or like end of the year wrap up of dating trends
Starting point is 00:07:37 and predictions for 2024. Like your Spotify wrapped. Yeah, like a playbook for dating, sex and relationships they're calling it. They do massive research, thousands of people, and they get some stats. They have sort of melted down the top traits that Gen Z and millennials look for in a partner when they're dating.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Should I do Gen Z or millennials first? We're a room of millennials. There's one Gen Z out there and a young millennial. Do they differ? Do they differ? They do differ a little bit. Okay. They differ a little bit.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Okay. A tiny little bit. A little bit. A little bit. Okay, let's do Gen Z first. The number one trait they look for, emotional intelligence. Okay. I don't even know what that looks like though. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:08:30 I feel like it takes years to figure out whether someone's emotionally intelligent or not. I think I'm quite emotionally intelligent. Fair idea pretty quickly though, right? Like you know if they're not. I want to say, I want a definition. Definition of emotional intelligence.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Because that could mean a myriad of things. The capacity to be aware of, control. Okay, I don't have that. You have zero control. And express good one's emotions. And to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically. See, I think I am aware of and can express my emotions. I can't control them.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Right. Sometimes they spiral out of control. Where would you sit in this, Vaughn? Emotionally, emotional intelligence. I like to think I can control them. Yeah, you're a good controller. I like to think so. Different to pushing down.
Starting point is 00:09:19 What? Pushing down the emotions. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Push them right down. What about you, Fletch? Push them right down. Are you emotionally intelligent? I'm a robot. He doesn't the emotions. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Control. What about you, Fred? Push them right down. You're emotionally intelligent. I'm a robot.
Starting point is 00:09:28 He doesn't have emotions. I don't have emotions. You don't have any. The next thing is humour. I'd say we've all got that. Humour. Humour in buckets. Is that an important thing for them?
Starting point is 00:09:38 For the Gen Zs? The second most important. Second most important. And the third most... Wait, their humour is second most important? You can't say bloody anything to these Gen Zs. I take offence to anything. I've got some ripper jokes that we used to chuck around in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Yeah, but their humour's different. Their humour's different, Vaughn. Give me a break. What about this? Why does Snoop Dogg have an umbrella? Yeah, don't... Full drizzle. They're not going to like that.
Starting point is 00:10:00 No Gen Z Shannon. Gen Z's supporting me right now. Did you like that joke? Was that humour? Yeah. Can I take you on a date, baby? Oh my God, baby. Yes, baby.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Can you pay though? Because I don't have any money and I don't have a house. Of course I can. Is number one money? No, number one is emotional intelligence. I've done my list one, two, three. Emotional intelligence. You've cocked it up.
Starting point is 00:10:19 I'll tell you that much. Humor. I'll do it the other way for millennials. Yeah. Intelligence. Just general intelligence. Right. Intellect.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Do you agree as a Gen Z, do you agree that's what you'd look for in a date? Someone who can control their emotions, someone who's funny and someone who's smart. I think personally, yes, but I'd say some of my girlfriends, no. Yeah, right. What do they want? Like hotties with big schlongs and whatnot? Yeah, probably. And like, you know, toxic and probably doesn't understand emotionals.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Manipulative. Great. Millennials. Millennials in third place. I'll do the list backwards. Physical attractiveness. See, we're vain, eh? Yeah, we liked it.
Starting point is 00:10:55 No, no. Hey, hey, hey. Whoa, we're just a bit older. Yeah. The 90s taught us that looks is everything. Yeah, and they are. Yeah. In the middle then is intelligence.
Starting point is 00:11:07 And then first is, again, emotional intelligence. We want people that can really express themselves. But also be hot. Yeah, but also be hot. You're ticking a few of these boxes. We're just going to work on those emotions coming out. So there you go. That's what we're looking for.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Next on the show, Silly Little Pole. Do you want a human at the checkout or do you love using the machine? You know me, I'm always looking for opportunities to engage with humans. Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly Little Pole. Silly Little Pole.
Starting point is 00:11:39 It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole. Silly Little Pole. Silly Little Pole. Silly Little Pole, which kind of checkout doff one prefer? One with the human? Self-serve or human service? So a UK supermarket had 28 stores and they have axed all the self-serve checkouts from all but two supermarkets. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Because they just say people want a human. Or is that also code for too many people with shoplifting? I mean, my thing, I always go self-checkout if I'm doing a small run, but nine times out of ten, you need the person. There's an item in the bagging area, or there's a mistake,
Starting point is 00:12:29 or there's something I'd rather, or your own bag, or you're buying booze. They have to ID you. So you might as well, well, that hasn't happened for a while, but you might as well just go there in the first place. Yeah, if it's just a few things, it's so quick to go self-service. Yeah. If you want it bagged, if there's a lot and it's not going to fit on that little shelf, you go through the... 100%. I think it's great a few things. It's so quick to go self-service. Yeah. If you want it bagged, if there's a lot and it's not going to fit
Starting point is 00:12:46 on that little shelf, you go through the... 100%. I think it's great to have options. Yeah. Poisonly, but if I'm just popping in, it's got to be self-serve.
Starting point is 00:12:55 74% of people also think self-serve is the preferred checkout kind. Also, you can buy load now, right? Like, you can buy all the... You can buy load? Yeah, Like you can buy all the Stuff that was embarrassing Yeah but you can buy it without the person Oh yeah gotcha gotcha Until it goes
Starting point is 00:13:10 Please You need clearance Too much lube Too much lube Bing bong bing bong The person comes over They're like oh I'm sorry You bought too much lube
Starting point is 00:13:19 There's a 10 bottle limit per person Yeah And then they say Actually these condoms We need to get you fitted for those. And then you put your pants down in the middle of it. They're like, come on, shove it up. You can only sell extra large if it's been fitted.
Starting point is 00:13:32 You can prove you're extra large because we've only got limited stock of extra large. We don't want babies. And then they fit you for it. You have to show us your extra large. 26% say human service is their preferred measure. Interesting. Josh says, self service is their preferred measure. Interesting. Josh says,
Starting point is 00:13:47 self-serve for sure. I'll do anything to avoid human interaction. Okay. Hearing that, sometimes I have a chat. Sounds like he's buying 10 bottles of lube though.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Yeah, he's having a... Sounds like he's got way too much lube. And those little, you can buy those little bullets now in the supermarket. Like licorice bullets. I love those.
Starting point is 00:14:02 No. Don't put those anywhere near that. And a CD. Is that official doctors? Have you been told by a doctor that? Or is that you just guessing? That's me guessing. Somebody's been to A&E and had to have a licorice bullet pushed out.
Starting point is 00:14:15 I just saw the word bullet. Bloody RJs. Julia said, I would prefer human service, but the lines are always much longer and because I'm younger, I feel like I should leave the space for older people. Good call, Julia. I feel like that's more for the older people who are shopping too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Good call. Emma says, they literally have 12 self-serve checkouts and four full checkouts, half of which are usually closed here at my local Woolies in Perth. They're definitely pushing towards that way. And the new ones have way less issues, but you do have to look yourself in a camera while scanning all the treats you shouldn't be buying. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Look at the camera looking back at you. No, we was the other day at a supermarket, and there was a camera. Is that to discourage? And the self-serve. If you can see yourself, you're less likely to scan pistachios as peas. Right.
Starting point is 00:15:03 100%. Right. Full shop's got to be a human service mini shop or a basket size shop. You do the self-serve, says Larissa. Full shops and self-serve is an abomination. Yeah, because you can't fit it on the shelf. Well, you know, that's not what it's there for either.
Starting point is 00:15:17 That's naughty. Yeah, you've got to be able to fit it on the shelf. My locals say, Michael, at least you put the half trolley over the place where you put your basket. No, what do you mean? Because you know when you put things in the bagging area and it's like, oh, yep, you've added the milk. I can feel that there now. No, you've got that on the left.
Starting point is 00:15:36 On the shelf. You've still got to put it on the shelf. Oh, yeah, but what I'm saying is you've still got to fit everything else on that shelf. Yeah. You can easily overfill a half trolley. When it goes green, you can take a bag off. Did you not know that? No.
Starting point is 00:15:47 And then it keeps going. I didn't know that. So there's a green light somewhere and you're like, I can take the bag off and add more. So once you add it and it's like, okay, that's the right weight, then anything you take off. I did not know that. So start by putting a bag on and then put your stuff.
Starting point is 00:16:04 And then when that's full, green light, take it off. I'm going to try that next time. Yeah, you're welcome. I didn't know that. So start by putting a bag on and then put your stuff. And then when that's full, green light, take it off. I'm going to try that next time. Yeah, you're welcome. I don't know this. There's no science. Jared's nodding. I don't know. Did you have these when you worked at the supermarket?
Starting point is 00:16:15 Or you just know your lights like me? A bit of both. Your self-serve. This was my preferred role when I worked there. I was running self-serve. Did you like being that person? Yeah, because I didn't have to talk to people. Less involved. Scan the barcode. Right. Would you like being that person? Yeah, because I didn't have to talk to people. Less involved.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Scan the barcode. Right. Would you ID Hayley if she was buying booze? Oh, yeah. She's only 22, so. She looks like the sort of old bird that would make your day. Yeah. As soon as they walk in your queue, you're like, oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Let me dig it out. Who would have had this out for a little bit, have I? You say Miss. Hey, Miss. Oh, they love that. Sorry, Miss, I'm going to need to see some ID.
Starting point is 00:16:47 You look about 17. Yeah. Pro tip. You've made her day, haven't you? Yeah. You've got your gold card. Jared,
Starting point is 00:16:55 not our Jared, another Jared, said, I hate talking to anybody, so it's self-serve for me every time. Could be our Jared, though. Could be.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Marie said, human when it's the big grocery shop so they can pack your bags for you. Yeah. Unless it's pack and save. They refuse. Well that's why it's cheaper isn't it? Yeah. It's in the literal name. Yep.
Starting point is 00:17:14 It's literally the name. Pack and you will save. Diane said it keeps people employed and you can get some great chats out of them. Oh my gosh. She's like a punish. She's like a punish to have in the line. I worked as a checkout girl in my teens. I can beat my own shit better than them now.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Hashtag expert packer. Do you reckon she still knows her PLU codes? Probably. For a Braeburn. Braeburn, go. PLU4386. Do you know your PLU codes still, Jared? No.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Or did you just have the, when you're a checkout check, do you have the... Oranges. 4386 is oranges. Do you have the picture or did you have to punch in the number? When I started, it was the numbers, so I learnt that way. And then we switched to the digital touchscreen. Okay, plums, go. 4160? Nah, it's not that. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:18:02 Okay, what about a Royal Gala apple? Wait, wait, I'm looking up 4160s. A Pippin apple. A Pippin apple. Okay, what about a Royal Gala apple? Wait, wait, I'm looking up 416. So it's a Pippin apple. A Pippin apple. Okay, what's a Royal Gala? That's a classic Kiwi apple. PLU, go. Would that be 4600?
Starting point is 00:18:15 4600. That is an eggplant. A white baby aubergine. Oh, Jerry. A white aubergine as well. I've never seen an albino aubergine. Do they taste the same? Normally purple or, you know. I've never seen one in the wild. I've only seen an albino aubergine. Do they taste the same? Normally purple.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I've never seen one in the wild. I've only seen them online. God, the apples dominate the PLU code. Did you find Royal Garland? No, I just went on 3002 and it was a canter red apple. 3098. What about carrots? Carrots, Jared.
Starting point is 00:18:41 You must know the carrots. I'm just thinking about your popular PLU items. Nah, honestly, I'm drawing a blanket. It's so embarrassing. Yeah, it is embarrassing. We're asking you to remember tens of thousands. 4103 is Braeburn. Oh, of course it is.
Starting point is 00:19:00 3065 is Demio. 92 more rows. They've all got a sticker on them now. Yeah. And you've got the pictures, so you don't need... What about the ambrosia apple? That is a great apple. Ambrosia. Ambrosia's a three, four, three, eight.
Starting point is 00:19:12 No one's eating Granny Smith apples. They don't even need a plough. They'll definitely have one, though. A plough. They don't need a plough. They're good for a bake. Good for a cider. A 4-0-1-7.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Yeah. A large Granny Smith. That's what I thought it was. Well. There's your plues, guys. That's still a little pole. Now, I believe this is unofficial, this app. It doesn't come from the Taylor Swift team directly.
Starting point is 00:19:44 But there is a new app available called Swift Alert, which basically gives you alerts and, like, in-the-moment updates on Taylor Swift and her Errors Tour. So even, like, she's on the stage now, she's doing this now, like, if you're not there, Gives you links to live streams. Little updates on where she's at in the concert. Where she's going next. This, that and the other
Starting point is 00:20:12 thing. She's going to have this shit shut down. Why didn't she do this herself? She's making some money. She should have done this herself. Because people just do this on various threads online. It is weird that she like she's just making all this money, but it's just touring and music, right, and the movie,
Starting point is 00:20:28 and obviously, like, merch. But there's no, she hasn't, she's done a fragrance. She's done a fragrance, eh? Yeah. How much money do you want her to have? She's a billionaire. No, but I'm just saying, like, she's done, yeah, she's a billionaire, but not like the way, say, Kanye or Rihanna or Jay-Z.
Starting point is 00:20:46 They went out and they made, you know, huge fashion lines. Yeah, Taylor Swift has a ton of fragrances. Right. Wonderstruck, Taylor by Taylor Swift. But she could literally make clothes. Incredible things by Taylor Swift. She could make clothes and do anything and people would buy them. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:05 So on this thing, you can get live stream links. You can get links to her merchandise, ticketing, quizzes, trivia, games, updates on albums when an album drops and that kind of stuff. And you get a little like ding. I was at drinks on, well, Friday, and that's when the Melbourne Taylor Swift tickets went on and everybody had to surrender their phone to these Swifties in the group.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Oh, really? Who went online to get tickets. And got them, eh? Some friends got some. Yeah, some to the Sydney one earlier in the day. Yeah. But it was just insane. There was like 10 phones and a couple of laptops
Starting point is 00:21:43 all just refreshing, waiting for tickets. And still people missed out. That's insane. Well, people, I'm reading reviews online on Reddit threads and whatnot on this app, this Taylor Swift Alert app. And they're really good. This app is so freaking cool.
Starting point is 00:22:00 I love it. Great features. Oh, two days ago, the app's now changed to premium paid. There it is. There it is. There it is. There it is. She'll get that shut down if someone's making money off her that's not her.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Yeah. Don't even download it today. It'll be shut down. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. Harry Styles is at Hiccup and people are like, oh, no.

And producer Shannon has just said apparently people have been speculating he's been wearing a wig for a little while and he's finally taken the wig off.
Starting point is 00:23:48 No. Why are they saying that? So basically during his concerts, he, you know, real gets into it and sometimes in videos when he flops his head forward, it kind of looks a bit toupee-y where a lot flops forward a bit more than it should. And so people have been speculating, I'd say,
Starting point is 00:24:05 for a year or two that he's actually wearing a wig. And now everyone's like, he just got sick of the itch. Like, he just wanted to take it off. It's a slippery slope when you start with conspiracies at the level of Harry Styles' wig, and next thing you know, you're camping out on the government's front porch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm deep into it.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Slippery slope. Slippery slope. Slappery slow. Number five on the list of the top six worst haircuts Harry Styles could have got. Those mullets that kids have.

I was so lucky because I know that people have just been queuing up to get tattooed by you. Which is great because there's always that nervous
Starting point is 00:39:07 feeling of like, oh God, I hope that people rock up because they've, you know, flown me out and everything and I want to raise money.

Starting point is 00:39:46 Yeah, we're tattoo virgins. Couple of virgins. Yeah. I'm used to it, yeah. Yeah, you like taking virginities though, so if you need to come and get a tattoo, let me know. Just in general? Who's the oldest person you've tattooed?
Starting point is 00:39:58 It was a 93-year-old. And that was only a couple of months ago, actually, with her two daughters. But before that that it was an 83 year old so I tattooed her granddaughter for a long long time but she was actually a holocaust survivor so obviously the connotation with tattoos is
Starting point is 00:40:14 awful. Yeah. Branded with the number right? Yeah. And even when her granddaughter was getting tattooed off me for all these years she's like you know I hide it from my grandma and because of this and that and I was like oh I would do the same thing yeah um and then she I got an email one day and she's like uh my grandma loved these they're all like cutesy little tattoos love these tattoos and she really wants to get one I was like no way like I was so happy to be a part of like a healing yeah
Starting point is 00:40:41 yeah like changing the way that she felt about them and obviously her granddaughter being so lovely was a big part of that but she had a birthday card that had two little owls on it
Starting point is 00:40:51 so they got matching owls and she got it on her back there's all these big puffed up dudes in the shop carrying on like pork chops in the air
Starting point is 00:40:58 like the bicycle legs and like scrubbing around and I was like how are you feeling she's like it's nothing and I was like

They don't make them like they used to. She was gangster, yeah. Also, because people are so excited to get tattooed by you because you've tattooed some pretty amazing people, myself included. I was just about to say, one of the biggest ones yesterday. I was very nervous.
Starting point is 00:41:19 I was beside herself when I walked on the road. Miley Cyrus is a big fan of yours. You've tattooed her a couple of times? Yeah, I've tattooed her a bunch. I couldn't even count them now. I've been fortunate enough when I first tattooed her when she came to Australia, we got along really well
Starting point is 00:41:34 to the point where her management was like, she's saying she misses you. She wants to see you again. Will you come to Perth for the last show? So they flew me over as a surprise. We ended up kicking it. She thought I didn't like her because I wouldn't ask her for photos. But I was like, I don't know. to see you again, will you come to Perth for the last show? So they flew me over as a surprise. Oh, my gosh. We ended up kicking it. She thought I didn't like her because I wouldn't ask her for photos.
Starting point is 00:41:48 But I was like, I don't know. I'd never met a celebrity before. I just didn't want to, like, be a weirdo. You played it too cool. Yeah, I played it way too cool. You made Miley want you. Yeah. She kept saying, you're my surprise.
Starting point is 00:42:01 And I was like, oh, my God. This is making me really nervous. Like, what do I do? Also, at the end of Game of Thrones, a lot of the Starks, right, they got tattoos, including Sophie Turner. Yes. What was it, the dire wolf? The wolf, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:18 The pecks survives, yeah. I think she was a bit traumatised because there was a group tattoo she was saying to me. So I didn't know who she was before I tattooed her, which is a lot like half of the celebrities. She's outcalling everyone, isn't she? No, it's because I'm so lame. I still listen to like really old music and I watch everything on repeat, you know. So obviously Miley I knew and I was really excited about. But I was tattooing Joe Jonas he was
Starting point is 00:42:45 hassling me for like a month when I was overseas and I was like I'm not gonna make it back in time anyways I get back first day I land he's like oh I want to get these tattoos and my girlfriend wants to get tattooed and so it turns out it was Sophie Turner I'd never seen Game of Thrones and I did this dire wolf tattoo with the packs of eyes but yeah she was saying oh I we were supposed to get group tattoos like another group of friends or whatever and then she got hers first and then they all pulled out and she's like well I didn't
Starting point is 00:43:14 want to get the other one and so then she got that one off of me. So I love that you did this tattoo the pack survived which obviously if you've seen Game of Thrones is a huge spoiler. It's like the biggest deal. I had so much abuse being like, you've ruined the end of Game of Thrones.
Starting point is 00:43:31 And I was like, well, I don't know actually if I did or didn't. Kind of. You kind of did. Well, the first article that came out afterwards, Lauren Windsor ruined the ending of Game of Thrones. I was like, yeah, I did because I watched the whole thing. Yeah. After that, obviously. The pack famously did not survive.
Starting point is 00:43:47 The father loses his head in the first episode. Robb Stark and his mother are murdered at the Red Wedding. That's half the pack gone. Yeah. One of them falls out of a tower and is paralysed and then talks to birds. I don't think you've ever been a spoiler at all. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:44:01 At all. Thank you. Also, you've tattooed Post Malone, right? Another one I didn't know. I asked him if he'd been to Australia before. I wasn't going to do it because I was feeling really sick and I had to go when Miley and Liam went together. It was his birthday the next day so I was driving to Byron
Starting point is 00:44:21 and I was saying to all the boys, should I do it? I'm like dead sick, I need a rest. And they're like, boys, should I do it? I'm like dead sick. I need a rest. And they're like, yeah, you should do it. It's post-mole. And so he got in. Did you do his face? I tattooed the playboy on his face.
Starting point is 00:44:34 That's iconic. That I did. I love heart and it's Beauty and the Beast dancing. It was meant to be him and his girlfriend at the time. And he told me that the Beast was his girlfriend. I know. She was there too. I was like, okay. Yeah, like girlfriend at the time
Starting point is 00:44:49 is now fully self-explained as to why it was at the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Unreal. You've got such a huge list of people that you've tattooed and your tattoos, like what I love about it is you can't define it. Sometimes you look at an artist and it's like they do one style, one thing.
Starting point is 00:45:02 You go on your Instagram and I mean, not only do you see some amazing photos of Lauren, that's for the viewer to see. Yeah. But your tattoos, you've got like Simpsons tattoos and you've got like little like doodles and you've got like full portraits. You can kind of do it all.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Oh, thank you so much. It's one of the things that when I was doing my apprenticeship, I was told a good tattooer can do a good job at everything so you can say yes to everything and know that you can be capable of it but pop culture stuff obviously is right up my alley yeah the fine line stuff just came because no one else had the balls to do it so I was like well I'll give it a go and then it turned out well and then just kept going and I guess the more you something, there's just not much room to move when you do fine stuff. So a lot of people are quite scared of the risk of doing a little bump.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Well, I absolutely love my little Kweli. Me too. We've got a photo up on our Instagram as well. You can check that out. Me and Lauren and my new Kweli tattoo. And if you're lucky enough to try to squeeze down to Queenstown this Thursday to get tattooed, bye, Lauren. I'll be tattooing on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Oh, Saturday, sorry. Down on Thursday. They're on Saturday. How much time do people have with you to get a tattoo there? I'm imagining it must be quite limited time. Well, they're giving 45-minute slots, but just like in Wellington, like some of them I can do in 10 minutes. Like I'm pretty fast.
Starting point is 00:46:22 It just depends on the person. Because it's a flesh tattoo, right? So you've got your choice. That's quack-tastic from Billy Madison. I wish I in 10 minutes. I'm pretty fast. It just depends on the person. How long did it take you to do this? That's quack-tastic from Billy Madison. I wish I did that one. I did the love heart one. I just had to include it because I love Billy Madison so much. The Simpsons ones are amazing, but then I got to, that's quack-tastic. You should see it. So that's on a singer called Teddy Swim. Oh, I know Teddy Swim. Yes, he's lovely. Did you know him before he came in? We knew of each other because he covers my favourite Shania Twain song.
Starting point is 00:46:50 And I actually... She's got quite copped music taste as well. I do. You're put as a Shania girl, to be honest. Shania, Steely Dan, Frank Sinatra, like everything, anything. Well, 100% of the tattoo proceeds are going to Movember, which is a great cause. Amazing. And if you're lucky enough, have fun with Lauren. I had
Starting point is 00:47:08 a lot of fun with you. Thank you so much. No, thank you guys so much and yeah it's such a good cause and really important so I'm happy to, yeah, let's spread the word and fit as many people in as possible. Let's let you go back to sleep so that you don't do some crazy doodles on people permanently. I'm going to go for a swim actually.
Starting point is 00:47:24 I know. Thank you so much Lauren. Thanks'm going to go for a swim actually. Oh good. I know. Thank you so much Lauren. Thanks for joining us. Thanks for having me. This news came out yesterday. Hellas. These Siwasek people.'s, these Suasage people. And bacon people.
Starting point is 00:47:49 And bacon people. Processed meats folk. Yeah. Have announced a collab with a couple of Kiwi Icon chips. Bluebird Heller's collab. So how does this work? Do they muley up? So the flavours are. Do they muley up?
Starting point is 00:48:03 You've lost me already. Now is there some big grinding machine? How does this work? Do they muley up? So the flavours are... Do they muley up? You've lost me already. Do they... Is there some big grinding machine? Do they blend up rations? And do they blend up burger rings? And then they put them in a sausage? And they pump them into a sausage? So they said they were trying out some potential new flavours.
Starting point is 00:48:20 And then they were eating one of the sausages. And they're like, what does it taste like? And then someone was like, it tastes like rations. By the way, top five chip for me. A ration. A ration's cheese and bacon. Cheese and bacon. And they said yes, and then the idea was born being like,
Starting point is 00:48:36 well, why don't we actually make a collab that is a rations tasting sausage. And a burger ring is like, is that a yeasty kind of a taste? You know, like a marmite-y. No, not like, you know, like a yeast spread. No, you open a bag of burger rings and have a sniff. No. It'll ruin burger rings for you.
Starting point is 00:48:55 No, but it's kind of that marmite-y, vegemite-y. Umami. Like, that would go awesome with the meat. What is the official flavour of burger rings? Like, burger, right? Burger rings. Like, burger. Meat. It's not, because the official flavour of Burger Rings? Like burger, right? Burger. Burger. Meat.
Starting point is 00:49:07 It's not. Because the official flavour of burger is pickle now. Because burger sauce, the strongest flavour is pickle. So no actual rations or Burger Ring chips go into the sausages, but they use the same taste and flavour profiles, same spices and seasonings. They've gone back and forth with Bluebird to get them right and have them sign off
Starting point is 00:49:25 on the flavours. I'm excited for this. Burger Rings officially are a delicious blend of tomato, cheese and barbecue. Tomato, that's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:33 Tomato, cheese and barbecue. Yum, yum, yum, yum. But still the sniff. The first sniff on an opening bag of Burger Rings. Oh, it's unique. Please, it's unique. It's not unique
Starting point is 00:49:43 because it smells exactly like something else. Burgers. Burgers, exactly. It smells like burgers. It's not unique because it smells exactly like something else. Burgers. Burgers, exactly. It smells like burgers. Yes, burgers. Next on the show. Wait a minute, is that all?
Starting point is 00:49:51 Yeah, that's it. We don't want to talk anymore about this. Nah. Well, what did you have to add? You're not adding anything constructive to the conversation. I just felt like
Starting point is 00:49:59 it went really quick. How long have we been talking? This time around? Who cares? What day is it? We're very... We're excited about sausages. Yeah. And burger rings smell
Starting point is 00:50:08 like something that they aren't. And next on the show, we'll tell you why I was in a police car at three o'clock in the morning. Okay, I'm looking forward to this story.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Looking forward to this story because he has not told me why. We play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. It's four minutes away from eight. Where were you at 3am?
Starting point is 00:50:23 Here we go. I have been up since 3am. You can tell to zero. Grumpy prick. These two have been fighting like cats and dogs all morning. I threw a chair. No, we've been like playful fighting. They told me yesterday it was pronounced U-K-N-O-U-B-A.
Starting point is 00:50:42 We did not. And it was pronounced U-K-N-O-U-B-A. We know that. So now Vaughan has to re-voice an ad. But I remember saying it was U-K-N-O-can-oo-ba. We did not. And it was pronounced U-can-oo-ba. We know that. So now Vaughan has to re-voice an ad, but I remember saying it was U-can-oo-ba. Which is fine, I'll do anything for the client. I'll do anything for the client. I remember saying it was U-can-oo-ba.
Starting point is 00:50:52 I wasn't even here for this. Yes, but I said U-can-oo-ba. Was it on a podcast? We spoke on it a few weeks back. The building opposite my apartment building got tagged. Yes. And massive tags because there's scaffolding up because I think they're getting the building repainted
Starting point is 00:51:08 or repairs or whatever. And I called the police because there were some people up there. Because you're a narc. On the scaffolding because I'm a big, fat narc. You are a big, fat narc and you're going to get some stitches. And they got them, but I think they were just drunk. I don't think they were tagging. I think they were just drunk and on their way home,
Starting point is 00:51:24 they were like, let's climb up the scaffolding. That was like, what, three or four weeks ago. Well, this morning, banging outside my window. At what time? Two-ish. And then I heard yelling. And so I opened up the window. Usually the banging's happening on the inside.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Oh, my God. Yeah, this guy. Dog can't stop. Road dog. So I open. Vaughan. He's a road dog. Let's keep on track here. I open up the curtains and then I see this guy with a backpack
Starting point is 00:51:51 and I see him putting a spray can in his pocket. Is it a Spider-Man? It's a Spider-Man scaling the building. No, it's a graffiti artiste. Oh, my gosh. I believe it's a tagger. And so people's lights start coming on in the apartment building where this guy is. And then I hear someone yelling out. And I'm's lights start coming on in the apartment building where the sky is.
Starting point is 00:52:05 And then I hear someone yelling out. And I'm like, oh, my God, they're back, the taggers. Roll gold. So what do you do, you little snitch? Well, so I'm like. Come on, snitch. I'm like, last time I called the cops and I'm like, well, there are so many apartment lights going on. There's people yelling.
Starting point is 00:52:24 I'm like, they've already got, they're already calling the police. Someone's called the police. I don't have to do this. But then I'm like, I see him climbing down and I'm like, oh, he's getting away. So I'm like, chuck my t-shirt on. Chuck my shorts on. So this is arrest. Put the dick away.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Get the... He does, he sleeps nude. I sleep nude. So instantly I'm like, quick. The real road dog would have chased him naked. Yeah, exactly. Get on the street. The real road dog would have just been like, you're in trouble now, boy, out the window.
Starting point is 00:52:54 So I go down, and then I see him, he's climbing on the other side, so I'm like, oh, now I'm going to have to go around, and I'm only in my Birkenstocks. I should have put shoes on, but he was getting away. Big road dog. Time was of the essence. So I walk around, and then I see this guy walk across the road, and I'm like on, but he was getting away. Big road dog. So I walk around, and then I see this guy walk across the road, and I'm like, shit,
Starting point is 00:53:08 he's getting away. And then I see the police car coming down the road. No sirens, or lights, because they obviously don't want to scare him away. And then I'm kind of like waving at the police car, I'm like, he's over here! Oh my god, you knock, yeah. And then he drove, the police car drove up the road, and I'm like, oh, you've gone the wrong way,
Starting point is 00:53:24 he's getting away. So I ran up and I'm like, he's down here. And the cop wound down his window. He's like, quick, get in. Whoa! You just got dead, you know! Did he get your gun? I'm like, oh my God, I'm a police officer now. Did you yell? Give me a gun! I'm not giving a gun, it's
Starting point is 00:53:39 Rude Dog! Bang, bang, bang, bang. So I strap in the seatbelt and he slowly does a Five point turn Oh he should have just been like Round the thing Still no lights or sirens At this stage Oh my god
Starting point is 00:53:51 Get the sirens on I'm like should we put the lights on Should we put the siren on And then we drove around And then He's slow He's driving real slow Like real slow
Starting point is 00:54:00 Trying to look out for this guy I'm like he's up there And then we drive up there And he's not there The guy's not there And I'm like We he's up there. And then we drive up there and he's not there. The guy is not there. And I'm like, we need to drive further. But then he does a U-turn. And he's like, I've got to go to another call now.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Do you mind getting out here? Oh, my God. And you're like, no, you just deputised me. I am the road dog. He's getting away. We need to put the sirens and the lights on. He's like, yeah, well, look, I'm sorry. I think he's gone.
Starting point is 00:54:23 I've got another call. We're going to have to go. Do you mind walking a block? He's like, yeah, well, look, I'm sorry. I think he's gone. I've got another call. We're going to have to go. Do you mind walking a block? I'm like, I guess so. Okay. Am I still a police officer? This is why we've got to start taking vigilante justice.
Starting point is 00:54:33 Yeah, this is why I'm thinking I might get a paintball gun because I could have got the guy, I reckon. Are you allowed a paintball gun? Absolutely. You're allowed to just fire at a graffiti tagger?
Starting point is 00:54:41 But now you're the graffiti tagger. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, you're tagging a human and you've got to yell something like, now you've been tagged by the road dog. By the road dog.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Well, anyway, that's why I've been up since three o'clock in the morning. One question before we go. Was the cop hot? Was the cop hot? Did he have tight sleeves? No, he was like an older,
Starting point is 00:55:00 like, you know, like when one of those old sergeants goes on the road? What was he doing? The old road dog? Old road dog. He's an old road dog. I don't know. I don't know. But yeah, it wasn, like, you know, like when one of those old sergeants goes on the road? What was he doing? The old road dog? Old road dog? He's an old road dog. I don't know, I don't know. But yeah, it wasn't like hot cops. Old road dog and his little pup.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Hit the road. Hit the road. Play Zed-N. Let's for the nightly. Play Zed-N. Read the room, gentlemen. Read the room. Oh no, famously we will not read the room. I'm requiring you to read the room. Oh, no. Famously, we will not read the room. I'm requiring you to read the room.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Well, I speak on behalf of men when I say neho. Neho. Neho. There is a female called Camille, and she has shared on the talk that she went on Facebook Marketplace to... Well, there was her first mistake. Yeah, look, this is on her. To sell her engagement ring.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Oh, because it ended. It ended. It was a gorgeous ring and she put it up for a bit of money. You know, it's your ring. You're allowed to do what you want. And she put it up and she was bombarded with a myriad of DMs from people who say,
Starting point is 00:56:08 hey, I'm not interested in the ring, but now I see that you're single, I would be interested in taking you on a date sometime. What do you think? Did she post a photo of her face and the ring or were people hitting on her just for a minute? Well, on the Facebook marketplace, you can go on their profile.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Okay, yeah, right. Another comment. I mean, look, I'm not just for a minute? Or on the Facebook marketplace, you can go on their profile. Okay, yeah, right. Another comment. I mean, look, I'm not looking for a ring yet. I could buy it and give it back to you a few years later if we go on a date tonight. Ridiculous. It's so ballsy. Who's the balls to do this?
Starting point is 00:56:37 Here's another one. Hey, Camille, I don't want to buy the ring, but how about I take you country dancing and we could talk about what you're going through from another gentleman. There are endless messages. Oh, far out. I just saw the ring. Good Lord! Is it a goodie?
Starting point is 00:56:54 Far out. Oh my God. Okay. Wow, that's huge. That is huge. Anyway, she said, POV, your husband leaves you. It wasn't even engagement, it, POV, your husband leaves you. It wasn't even engagement, it was your husband. Your husband leaves you,
Starting point is 00:57:07 so you try and sell your engagement ring on Facebook Marketplace. And this is what you get. So many. They would put me off. How many? Does it say how many she got? It sounds like they were like...
Starting point is 00:57:16 Well, she had five. To be honest, I really don't want the ring. I'd rather just use the ring to remarry you. There's so many. Now, I know this can happen a bit, right, that people sell things and then people start using marketplace as a dating means or... Slide into the DMs that way.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Sliding into the DMs that way. I want to know if something like this has ever happened to you, when somebody had the audacity to slide into your DMs at an inappropriate time. Shannon, this happened to you? Did this happen to you? Yeah, I posted about my dead cat and I had a guy slide in my DMs at an inappropriate time. Shannon, this happened to you? Did this happen to you? Yeah, I posted about my dead cat and I had a guy slide in my DMs. What was your cat's name? Sam.

Well, she's got a way with words now, Shannon. And then he proceeded To say that I was a beautiful girl

And saying that, because I don't mind mowing the lawn in a completely non-creepy manner. I quite like mowing the lawn. Oh, no, you'll never get rid of them. They'll spend hours getting the answers.

Starting point is 01:02:05 When did someone have the audacity to slide into the DMs? I was selling a car seat on Marketplace, and the guy came round and got it, and he was a bit creepy. Anyway, two days later, he DMed me saying, thanks very much for the car seat. I'd really like to catch up for a wine. Wait, car seat?

So I was listing a flat. just been flirty when we were at school. Oh, my God. Another chance. Yeah. So I was listing a flat. I put a picture up of the people in the flat,
Starting point is 01:03:09 and this guy messaged saying, let's save money on costs, and I'll share your room. Oh. I sold my first car to a guy in his 20s. He would relentlessly text me for months afterwards asking me out. I said, no, because your car's a piece of shit. Good work there, because you just sold it to him. Yeah. I was selling my breast pump post kids, and some creep messaged me asking about the size capacity because your car's a piece of shit. Good work there because you just sold it to him.
Starting point is 01:03:26 I was selling my breast pump post kids and some creep messaged me asking about the size capacity for nipples. For God's sake. Immediately blocked. The most amazing thing is that people are doing this from their profiles.
Starting point is 01:03:40 Yeah, dude. You can see who they are. I also want to say there's a theme. Yeah, there is. I was want to say there's a theme. Yeah, there is. Who's giving and receiving.

Starting point is 01:04:32 You've got the bottle of fish oil. What, did you just open up a capsule, like an Omega-3 capsule? Oh, yeah, yeah. Spritz it around. Give it a day to dry and then sell it to him. I'd do that because who cares? That's money. That's money in the bank.
Starting point is 01:04:44 That's money for jam. This one is The Audacity. Okay, go. Sad but true story. Should I read this one? Three weeks after my fiance lost his life in a plane crash, a male client of mine, I'm a beauty therapist, messaged to see if I'd like to join
Starting point is 01:05:00 him and his wife for dinner to cheer me up. I didn't go as I was obviously shattered by grief, but glad I didn't because it turns out they wanted me to go to a swingers party with them. Three weeks after her fiancé has passed away in a horrible accident. Like at least give it...
Starting point is 01:05:15 She said I'm still reeling from the audacity six years later. Yeah. A friend of mine was selling a wetsuit on Marketplace and a guy messaged saying, would this fit in it? And then a picture of his penis for size reference. No, that did not happen. That happened. That happened.
Starting point is 01:05:33 I lost my fence in a recent storm, posted it on an Insta, like, look at the aftermath. I had about eight offers from builders to come and fix my fence and one high school acquaintance asked if insurance was covering it and then tried to sell me more insurance.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Oh, wow. You're hot though. That's got to be a problem of eight builders alike. Yeah. Yeah. Always good to have
Starting point is 01:05:51 your insurance up to date. I picked up a mattress from a mattress store and the guy who helped me load it stole my number from the invoice and texted me
Starting point is 01:05:58 to ask how the mattress was and if it needed breaking in. Oh, that's so bad. I will not read that one now. There's a little reading here. Yeah, because these are starting to flow thick and fast now. My landlord had organised for a pest control guy to come and spray the house for ants.
Starting point is 01:06:21 He came over to the house twice. I later found out the second time wasn't even organised with my landlord. He just didn't even need to come over. Really taking that pest job seriously. Yeah, well, he's pesting. Eliminating pests and replacing them with himself. A week later, I woke up to a text he sent at 2am
Starting point is 01:06:38 asking me to pick him up. He then went on to say I was very attractive and was I looking for a boyfriend or just some fun and to let him know he was easily old enough to be my father. But at least you would never have like ants again. Yeah. I mean you've got to weigh that up because ants
Starting point is 01:06:56 are a pain. And flies in summer. Flies in summer. Any with some women having the audacity to slip into me? No, no, not really. Not a single one. I sold my house to a couple of three kids. After the sale, the partner, the male, text me saying, I like you, and asked me if I could send him topless photos.
Starting point is 01:07:14 Come on, dude. A wife and three kids. You've got to put a foundation down before you just drop that one on. Oh, my God. I had a hit on my famously empty DMs.ms long story short let's just say both me and the buyer and the seller came out completely satisfied with the transaction there you go so that's one out of 100 so far um i was selling heels on marketplace unworn um just didn't wear
Starting point is 01:07:40 them for my wedding a man messaged asking what they looked like on and asking me for feet pictures of what she was happy to pay for. Oh. Someone said, every shot missed is a shot not taken. No, it's every shot not taken is a shot missed.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Yeah. But still, these aren't shots that should be taken. These aren't shots. No. I was selling a bikini. Someone asked me
Starting point is 01:07:57 how much it had been worn. Oh, for God's sake. And then asked me for a rundown of any stuff that happened in the bikini. Sounds like you need to get out the fish oil again and sell that to them. Someone said, how do I get banned from Facebook Marketplace
Starting point is 01:08:10 for telling a scam account I won't go along with their BS, but these creeps get away with all of this shit? That's a question we're all asking ourselves. Somebody else wants to know if you could message in and say how much you get for old undies, because they've got heaps of them, and they're willing to sell them to fund the purchase of the new undies. Love that.
Starting point is 01:08:27 Get that cash. Get that cash. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fact of the day in Super Sense Week, where we're looking at the animal kingdom for who is the champion of the senses. Oh, yeah. Today is touch day.
Starting point is 01:08:59 Oh, yeah. Special mention for the humans. Special mention for the humans. Apparently our fingers and our hands. Very good. Yeah, like little tickles up mention for the humans. Special mention for the humans. Apparently our fingers and our hands. Very good. Yeah, like little tickles up the back. Nice, yeah. Or little tickles on the arm. Should we do a tickle train while we're doing this?
Starting point is 01:09:10 No, no, it's about how sensitive your touch is to touching a surface. Yeah, like a back or an arm. No, no, no, no, no, no. Because that's the back that's receiving the scratches. We're doing light scratches. Are we doing little tickles? Yeah, we can do little tickles, but it's about how sensitive our fingers are.
Starting point is 01:09:27 Can we all just put our hands out and just do that for each other? Can we just like go around in circles? Oh, that's nice. That's nice. Round and round the garden, like a teddy bear. Ran the teddy bear.
Starting point is 01:09:36 Like a teddy bear. Ran the teddy bear. Ran around the garden. When have you seen a teddy bear run around a garden so much so that you'd be like, I'd love to run around a garden like a teddy bear. Very often, Vaughan. Very often. Don't question me. Ran around the garden
Starting point is 01:09:50 like a teddy bear. One step, two step, tickly under there. You've never heard that. Jesus, were you touched as a child? Did you come from an orphanage somewhere? I didn't know Goose Goose Duck. Duck, duck, goose. Goose Duck. No, there's more know Goose Goose Duck. Duck, duck, goose.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Goose Duck. No, there's more ducks than there are geese. Oh, okay, right. Well, I never played that. And you ran around the garden like a teddy bear, one step, two step, tickly under there. Ah, it doesn't ring a bell. This little piggy went to market.
Starting point is 01:10:16 This little piggy ran home. Oh, that one I know. That one I know. And the one where you pretend you're... Here's the lyrics. Round and round the garden like a teddy bear. Ran the teddy bear. Like a teddy bear. And then the teddy bear runs up the arm. Round and round the garden, like a teddy bear. Ran the teddy bear. Like a teddy bear.
Starting point is 01:10:26 And then the teddy bear runs up the arm. Well, anyway, touch. Well, while we're good, and that feels nice, actually, just tickling the palm. That's relaxing. Let's do that. Let's do that. I might hit the elbow.
Starting point is 01:10:35 I might hit the inside of the elbow. And then a little bit up the back. Yeah. Today's fact of the day is that we have nothing on the snout of the star-nosed mole who is the champion of the sense of touch in the animal kingdom. I hate star-nosed moles. Google it. They're gross.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Very unusual. They just look like a mole, but on the end of their nose isn't a mole nose. It's like a flappy starfish. Yeah. It's like something out of Stranger Things. They're so gross. It's got demogorgon energy. Big demogorgon energy. It looks like a starfish. Yeah. It's like something out of Stranger Things. They're so gross. It's got demogorgon energy.
Starting point is 01:11:06 Big demogorgon energy. So its head looks like a starfish. That's the end of its nose. Or an inside head. It's got eyes and stuff but they're no good. Gross, eh?
Starting point is 01:11:15 That bizarre looking snout that you're looking at or maybe bookmarking it to Google once you've finished driving your car has over 100,000 nerve endings.
Starting point is 01:11:25 That's more than five times the amount of nerves in the entire human hand in the space of one single fingertip. Wow. So they can sense movement underground. So when they're digging, they'll stop and they'll put their nose against the dirt and they can feel bugs moving over there and the vibrations coming in. And they're like, I can feel that. We'll go there. And they're super quick.
Starting point is 01:11:48 It's kind of like a cat's whisker too. It can navigate them through, point them in directions, but has 100,000 nerve endings. Is it wet? It looks fleshy, eh? Yeah. Looks real fleshy. It looks dampish.
Starting point is 01:12:07 Dampish? Yeah. I'll stop short of saying it looks the M word But usually I don't have a problem Saying the M word but something about Staring into that snout and saying moist Is not going to sit well with me So today's fact of the day The most sensitive animal in the world When it comes to touch is the star-nosed mole
Starting point is 01:12:24 Fact of the day Day day day day the most sensitive animal in the world when it comes to touch is the star-nosed mole. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Yesterday it was brought to my attention while looking over I wasn't spying but I just saw on Aaron's phone that he's part of a group chat called like Christmas party club vibe Yeah And I saw Sade in there Vaughn's wife Yeah And I saw Sade in there. Vaughn's wife. Yeah, right. I saw
Starting point is 01:13:07 my fiance in there and I saw two of our friends. Who I didn't see in there was Vaughn and Hayley. So our partners and our friends have started their own separate group chat. And then it was brought to my attention yesterday that they're actually
Starting point is 01:13:23 planning a Christmas party that doesn't involve us. They, well they own a business, our friends own a business and Aaron's helped them and Sade's done absolutely jack shit for them to be totally honest. She's promised to go up but she's been drinking and she's like, I'll have her on, help with sanding things. And has never once gone. I love that she does this. To be honest, she offers every time and I roll my eyes because I know it's not going to happen. Yeah. And I mean, she offered on Friday night.
Starting point is 01:13:47 I think it was, I'll come help you lift some wood onto a machine. And I knew that wasn't going to happen, but I kept my mouth shut. Of course. So then they were like,
Starting point is 01:13:56 well, they own a business so they're like, we're going to have a business Christmas party and then Aaron and Sade don't like have the contract work so they don't get Christmas parties. Yeah. And they, like, have the contract work, so they don't get Christmas parties.
Starting point is 01:14:06 Yeah. And they're like, let's just do one big Christmas party on the same day that we'll have the ZDM Christmas party. But this is what I thought about it is, they started planning a Christmas party that I would like. Yeah. They're going clay bird shooting. Oh, I've done that.
Starting point is 01:14:21 It's lots of fun. It's so much fun. I'm also very good at it. I'm very good at it too. No, you're not. Yes, I am. Clay bird shooting, I'm really that. It's lots of fun. I'm also very good at it. I'm very good at it too. No, you're not. Yes, I am. Play good shooting. I'm really good. No, you're not. I am. How are you? You're thinking of Buck Hunter at the arcade. No, when I did play good shooting, I was the best in the
Starting point is 01:14:35 bunch. But I'm just very hard, by the way. I like when a man tells you what you're good at. I like it too. Yeah. Can you slap me a little bit? Okay, we've found the kink. There it is, being run down, taking the fitness moment back 30 years. I'm like... Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:14:55 Just how ugly? You're the ugliest person I've seen today. Yeah, I am. Yeah, you are. I think you might be the ugliest person I see all week. You know it. You don't drive well. Yeah, I'm terrible behind the wheel.
Starting point is 01:15:12 You're terrible behind the wheel. You're a real danger to everyone, including yourself. Bad, naughty danger. Yeah, yeah. No wonder you two have not been invited to your partner's Christmas parties. Well, some research has been done and it has found that the average adult is spending four hours a month with their friends.
Starting point is 01:15:32 Four hours a month? And I think back to the last month and I'm proud of you, Vaughan, because I can, of all the times we've spent in groups outside of work, you have done so well in the last month. I've really done well. It's been fun, actually. I've really enjoyed it. We've had a lot of work. You have done so well in the last month. I've really done well. It's been fun, actually. I've really enjoyed it. We've had a lot of fun. Four hours a month, I'd spend at least four hours a week
Starting point is 01:15:52 with my friends. Yeah, you're very social. No, minimal. Like, four hours a night. I'd say four hour sessions at least three times a week. So the average person spends four hours a month socialising with friends,
Starting point is 01:16:08 meeting up just twice during that period. So that averages out to two hours a time. More than a quarter of the adults polled say that they're spending less time in person with friends this year compared to last year. Oh, gosh. Also, because I think like, because of the cost of living
Starting point is 01:16:23 and like people with mortgages and like just everything's so expensive, they're kind of cancelling a lot of going out. Yeah, right. Because it is just so expensive. So millennials, those between the ages of 25 and 34, 37% are struggling to
Starting point is 01:16:37 find time for their friends. Yeah, because they're spending all their time chasing that pootie tang. Pootie tang. Pootie tang. Pootie tang. Pootie tang. Pootie tang. Pootie tang. They're out there, they're like, man, I've got a choice to make today. I'm going to catch up with my friends and I'm going to try to
Starting point is 01:16:53 give me some of that pootie tang. Or they're working so much or working a second job just to feed themselves. Ain't no time for friends nor pootie tang. Chasing that money tang. And compared to Gen Zers, yeah, they are the only age group spending more time with their friends this year.
Starting point is 01:17:10 So they're prioritising that over millions. I reckon my social life has flourished this year more than ever. Even I, who love socialising. Well, you collect a lot of friends. Recently, I've been like, oh man, yeah. So I'm out all the time.
Starting point is 01:17:27 Speaking of socialising, we're hanging out on Thursday, aren't we, for Fridays? That was my seamless... Because you have to do that thing about Fridays. About Fridays.
