The ZM Podcast Network.
The Flesh, Fawn and Hayley Big Pod.
Thanks to McCafe.
Great things are brewing, one cup at a time.
Good morning, welcome to the show.
Flesh, Fawn and Hayley, we're all back together.
Yeah.
Good morning.
All our powers combined.
Captain, not quite, we need two more planeteers.
Oh, okay.
All we wear, two of us wear two rings.
I don't like wearing any rings.
Okay, so you're out of the Planetaires.
I don't want to be a Planeteer.
It's just you and me.
I'll wear one on each hand.
And I'll wear three.
You wear three.
All right.
Yeah.
Captain Planet pops out.
He's like, where are the other three?
We're like, sorry, it's a predominantly white-looking Planetarian group now.
He's like, I had such an ethnic spread.
I know.
It was the 90s.
It was very progressive.
It was a worldwide fight against pollution.
We'll say, shut up.
You're our slave.
Do what we want.
Fix what we ruined, Captain Planet.
Fix it.
We're wrecking everything.
More bad weather on the way.
That's not very Captain Planet at all.
Like you, Keir, you're on cloud nine.
I am on a different planet.
It's a big show this morning because after 8 o'clock this morning,
we're going to bring you Hayley's interview with the one and only,
her hall pass.
Jason Momoa.
Saturday was such a day.
What a ride that was.
Yeah.
It was very hard to come back down to earth.
I mean, you don't normally, when you go into these press junkets,
you don't normally touch them.
No, they're not very good on touching.
They're not very good on touching.
You got touching.
I did four touches.
Touched and touching.
I did some light touching and then arguably some quite heavy touching.
Well, after eight o'clock this morning,
you're going to hear how it all went down.
And then what happened after that interview.
Well, I can't tell you everything I've signed in India.
Right.
I was going to say, well, Shade read me a comment she saw on one of our social posts last night
saying she was so disappointed in you, they thought you had morals.
They actually thought you'd sleep with her.
Oh, my God!
No, Shade was just like, look at this comment.
And I read it and I was just crying with laughter.
Once you hear the interview and see it, you certainly did give it a nudge.
I would say the sparks were flying both ways.
They were, they were.
It's coming up after 8 o'clock, Hayley's interview with Jason Momoa for the Fast X movie.
Premiere was in Auckland on Saturday.
You hosted that.
Yeah, the red carpet beforehand.
Did you speak to him?
Yeah, briefly.
Did you apologise?
There was absolutely no need to apologise.
No apology necessary.
Eight o'clock.
I was trey professional.
Coming up on the show, Silly Little Pole,
what's the ideal date night?
Is it a weeknight or a weekend?
Date night every day at our house.
Someone's got some making up to do for this whole moment.
Aaron literally went on a date with Bourne last night.
Yeah.
Next on the show, finally, great news if your name is Kyle.
Finally.
Finally.
You don't have detention today?
Clay.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Kyle.
Would that have been the 80s or the 90s Jaden?
Yeah.
Very naughty.
Bit of a naughty name, isn't it? Very naughty Kyle.
My brother's a Samuel Kyle.
That's his middle name.
Oh, it is?
Well, I don't know if he'd be eligible for this,
but there is a city called Kyle, named Kyle, in Texas.
And on the 21st of May, so this weekend,
they will all be meeting at Lake Kyle Park,
and they want all the Kyles around to join.
All the local Kyles of Kyle.
All the local Kyles.
What's, for a world record, attempted. Most Kyles? local Kyles of Kyle. All the local Kyles. For a world record attempted.
Most Kyles? Most Kyles
in Kyle. So apparently the
city that has, it's attempted
to break this world record
three times before but it's failed.
So they haven't been able to find enough Kyles.
There is a world record
in a city
in, it's called
Ivan. It's in Bosnia.
Right.
And they had Ivans coming.
And they had a lot of Ivans.
In 2017, 2,325 Ivans turned up.
Ivan.
So that's what they need to beat?
Yes.
I just Googled most Haley's world record.
Nothing really.
A woman called Haley who did most, you know, press ups or something like that.
We don't really have any cities or towns with just...
Clyde.
Clive.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We'll have to go back sometime to do a...
Shannon.
Shannon.
A lot of Shannons.
Would you get that many Shannons?
We've got a Shannon.
I feel like it's also got to be somewhere that's very close to a big city,
like Christchurch or Auckland.
Right.
So you're saying we need to get a whole lot of Darfields together.
Yeah.
Some Ash Burton's.
Yeah.
Some Ashes.
Yeah, some Ashes and some Burton's.
Or some Huntley's.
Oh, yeah, you could do that.
Because, you know, that's just down the motorway from Auckland.
Your name's Huntley.
Well, it's off the motorway now.
Oh, it is, yeah.
Off the motorway. Auckland. Your name's Huntley. Well, it's off the motorway now. Oh, it is, yeah.
Off the motorway, it'll just get me.
How many Palmerston North do you reckon we could get together?
Quite a few people.
Quite a few people call Palmerston North.
Palmerston.
None.
Yeah.
So what are they going to do when they all get together, these Kyles?
Just cause a ruckus?
I think they'll just stand there, they register,
and there's a fair going on all weekend.
Oh, okay, I was going to say. The Kyle Fair.
It's got to be something fun to do.
Not just stand there. Yeah. There's a Kyle fear. There's got to be something fun to do. Not just stand there.
Yeah.
And get a world record.
I'm Kyle.
Because you know what?
Kyle's are like, they get bored, they'll start lighting fires.
Yeah, they will.
This is their trouble.
Start throwing punches and whatnot.
They're naughty boys.
Start doing burnouts.
Yeah, the police will have them all in the holding cells and they'll be like, Kyle, and they'll all stand up.
Yes.
Yeah, because they're all little ratbags.
Yeah.
Gotcha.
Oh, well, have fun, Kyles.
Yeah, this weekend, if you can get to Kyle in Texas.
Yeah, well, good morning to our Kyle listeners.
It's on.
Clay, Zed Eames, Fletch, Vaughn, and Hayley.
People were given a survey about travel plans
they're planning on making this year.
Oh, none.
Where are you guys going?
What it revealed is that the majority of people would prefer to go
on a sort of spontaneous trip as opposed to a very heavily planned one.
Because I know you love to detail.
I love a detailed trip, but then I feel like in New Zealand,
spontaneous is like a bit hard for us.
Like if you're in England or America.
You can just go get on a plane and in a couple of hours you could be in,
I don't know, you could be in the Caribbean.
You could be in Central America.
You could be in Europe.
It could be any trip.
Yeah, domestic.
Domestically. I reckon just go up domestically.
I reckon spontaneous is way more fun.
Really?
When you just get in the car and you go away for a weekend.
Yeah, yeah.
Or like a couple of days, oh, should we go away this weekend?
Oh, where should we go?
And you're kind of like, it's exciting and you don't put too much pressure on it.
But if you organise it too far out, like you're putting so much pressure on this being the trip of a lifetime.
Yeah.
If it doesn't measure up in all ways, you're like, uh.
Not only did this cost me a lot of money and a lot of time,
and now I'm here and it's not meeting my expectations.
Yeah.
I guess it depends as well on what kind of money you're spending.
Like me and Aaron had a big six-week trip planned for 2020.
I don't remember 2020, but something got in the way,
and that got cancelled.
What happened?
COVID.
COVID-19.
But I had planned almost everything.
Every bus, every transfer.
Really?
Every restaurant in that town.
Oh, wow.
Like how I was going to walk to the thing, what was nearby.
Like a fast walk or just a casual walk?
Quite a fast walk.
You do walk fast.
I do.
Yeah, and also Aaron's got extraordinarily long legs. Yes, you've got to fast walk. You do walk fast. I do.
And also Aaron's got extraordinarily long legs.
Yes, you've got to keep up.
But I do like the idea of doing something on a whim.
But I think I wouldn't be able to help but go like,
best food in, even if I was like camping,
going camping like two hours up the road.
Yeah.
Best food in.
Best fish and chips in this town. Yeah, that rules, that rules.
Yeah, totally, always.
Best Chinese takeaways. And then you look and you're like, all these feel like
you know, this is a
friends and family have reviewed them
to push them right up. There's not a lot
of character here. How trustworthy.
Also, a big
majority of people,
73%, said they would be
willing to take a trip to a surprise destination.
Now, we've been part of sending people to surprise destinations before,
and people are just, in general, happy to just go away.
I need to trust those, like, mystery break weekends,
because I feel like you're just getting the dregs of whatever flights are left over for that weekend.
Totally.
And then, like, a mystery hotel, minimum four star, and you get the delay.
Yeah, like, you kind of want to know.
Do they?
I've never known, but mystery weekends, if you buy a mystery to know. Do they? I've never known about mystery weekends.
If you buy a mystery weekend, and as you say, it's the dregs.
When do they decide where you're actually going?
I don't know.
Do you get told straight away?
Like do in-users still do that?
Do they know when you purchase the mystery?
Do they figure it out afterwards?
Yeah, like the Thursday before you fly on the Friday and they email you about.
Surprise.
Yes.
Armistead North is lovely this time.
Yes.
But honestly,
even at this point,
if someone said to me,
I'll pay for your flights
and accommodation
and we're going to send you to
Fielding.
Yeah.
I'd be like,
great.
Sounds interesting.
It'd be lovely.
Snuggle up.
Straight on TripAdvisor.
Best things to do in Fielding.
Best fishing trips and fielding.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Fletch, Vaughn 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. Silly little Pong today.
Ideal date night, weekday or weekend?
I like a little planned weekend.
Like to say, oh, we're going to do this on the weekend.
We're going to do this.
We're going to do this.
But then like a spontaneous.
A spontaneous pub night. I like to do the on the weekend, we're going to do this, we're going to do this. But then like a spontaneous, A pub,
a spontaneous pub night.
I like to do the pub.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The other night I was driving home,
oh yeah,
I'd done my show and then I was starving
and I said to Aaron,
meet me at the local pub
and we met.
Or did you do that thing
where you pretend you're two,
just two singles
and you just happen across each other.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Excuse me sir,
is anyone sitting here? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you're a big singles and you just happen across each other. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Excuse me, sir. Is anyone sitting here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, you're a big boy.
Yeah.
How tall are you?
And then he's like,
oh, you're a big girl
and you're like,
you're not very good at this.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, true.
No!
You're way too rude
if I say I was a big girl!
We're meant to all.
No, you didn't.
I'm going home.
Bring my food when it comes.
I think when you've been
in a relationship for as long when you've been in a relationship
for as long as I've been in a relationship,
any date is a nice occasion.
Whatever works for you, right?
Yeah.
But if you're freshly dating,
I would go...
You just aren't paying it right.
Sorry.
You're like, what?
The date night's just a bit of pleasantry before the...
Right. For the hump days. Well, I'd probably go weekend then if I'm getting hump days because... the date night it's just the a bit of pleasantry before the right
for the hump days
well I'd probably go
weekend then
if I'm getting hump days
because
you're not humping on a weeknight
nah because I don't want to
wake up you know
somewhere foreign
and then be like
oh god now I've got to get to work
yeah weird
oh my god
humping and then having to get home
I haven't thought about that
for ages
oh my god
the worst
I like to sleep
I like to sleep
straight afterwards
wake up you're like
wild how do you get your ones home Oh my God, the worst. I like to sleep straight afterwards. Wake up, you're like...
Wild.
How do you get your ones home?
Fletch.
We're not having this conversation.
That's why you've got a bad Uber rating.
It just keeps filling in with randoms.
Do you think that's how I've got...
No, but...
Oh my God, yeah, because I've got like four one-star ratings.
That's when you're sending on your hunky-dumps.
Do you know what it is?
It's when Hayley and my friends are in the back of Ubers
talking about wild things.
I feel like some of those Uber drivers
cannot deal with some of the things we talk about.
Get your mark down.
Yeah.
All right, well, I...
No, but you don't on a weeknight.
Definitely not that place.
I deal...
No.
I'm rolling my eyes at the guy who's saying not a week.
So not a week, guys.
Weekday afternoon.
Oh, yeah, weekday afternoon.
He loves an afternoon.
He loves an afternoon delight.
Oh, yeah, a little afternoon.
Sky rockets in flight.
Woo!
Afternoon delight.
Woo!
Afternoon delight.
We nailed that.
Ideal date night.
Weekday, 29%.
Weekend, 71%.
Overwhelmingly the weekend.
Yeah.
You can get a bit carried away.
Danielle says, both.
I'm greedy and I love all the date nights.
Corinda says, Friday night is the best date night.
Is Friday night a weekend night, technically?
Because I would class Friday night as the weekend night
and Sunday night as a weekday night.
Same, same.
Yeah.
Good, we've all agreed.
We've all agreed.
We're sensible people.
The jury has spoken.
Yeah.
My husband and I have been doing date night every Wednesday
for over 10 years,
something nice to look forward to in the middle of the week.
Well, that's what they say.
You should try to do one every week.
Schedule it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bonus, when we get to go to a show for date night, it's always cheaper on a Wednesday.
It is cheap Wednesday.
Midweek Wednesday.
Do they still do the cheap movies on Wednesdays?
I don't know.
Do you remember that was a thing forever?
I thought it was Tuesdays.
Cheap Tuesdays.
Tuesday was always a cheap night for everything.
Yeah.
Movies, video rentals, like a lot of two-foot drinks.
Yeah. Just to get people-foot drinks. Yeah.
Just to get people out and about.
Yeah.
Cup quiz.
And because I think that was the day before my Benny too.
Yeah.
Back in the Benny days because Benny day was Wednesday.
Oh, Benny day was Thursday for me.
Oh, was it?
Okay.
Might have been different.
Yeah, maybe it was Thursday.
Because you were getting literally the student benefit, right?
Or were you getting the benefit?
No, I was just getting the benefit after being
a student for about... Yeah, I was on the benefit
after I was a student. Yeah, me too.
Because Helen Clark
put in the artist's benefit and then
someone took it away.
Oh!
Wait, she just gave you money for being an artist.
Yeah, Helen Clark
introduced the artist's benefit
so that you can work on being an artist
as opposed to the what was I on, the work job seekers.
Oh, okay.
Where you had to be actively seeking a job.
Right.
This gave you time to concentrate on your art.
Yeah.
And, you know, like, say what you will, it gave us great artists like...
Anyway...
No, surely, because.
Well, the, you know.
Because didn't.
And, well, undeniably, the museums are filled with great artworks from the years then.
And the album.
Of course.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, wow.
Because I saw their show.
Because what did you do with yours?
I know you didn't because it got taken off.
I didn't. I went on the job seekers.
Otherwise you could have some art.
I would have had more art.
More art, yeah.
I like that.
Other artists. Followed in the footsteps
of that artist.
Of course.
Used it well.
Sappy says, if you're not
feeling it, you have a get out of jail free
card on a weeknight. Yep.
So, because you've got work the next
day, so it's the ideal date night as
a weeknight. Oh yeah, because you can pull the pin.
Or you can pull the pin and blame work.
You're never going to find love like that.
Is that attitude? You're got to put yourself out there.
Well, on weekdays with an option to eject.
Danny says, weekday gives you something fun to break up the monotony of work, gym and chores.
That's a good, like if you know it's Monday, you can be like, well, at least on Wednesday
or Thursday, we've got date night.
Yeah.
And it does break it up.
Yeah. It's a good way it does break it up. Yeah.
It's a good way of looking at it.
It is.
Brianne says weekday every single time.
Less people, less noise.
I'm not interested in clubs, dancing or drinking.
So as shift workers too, it's not always a school night.
Oh, yeah.
There's just less people out and about.
Yeah.
And Dallas says we go on a Sunday because our local has beer and pizza deals.
A nice way to finish the weekend and kick off the start of the week nicely.
Hmm.
Yeah, good stuff. Yeah, good stuff.
Lovely.
Play
ZM's Fletch Vodanale.
Play ZM.
May I please speak on behalf of
Gen Z?
Um.
I wouldn't. I'm not a Gen Z- I wouldn't.
I'm not a Gen Z-er,
but I have word from them.
It's a generational appropriation.
I'd be very careful.
Can we ask our Gen Z-er?
It's appropriation.
Shannon, may I speak on behalf?
Oh, go on.
Yes, she says this now, but...
Yeah, tiptoe.
Later she'll say she was bullied into it
by an older generation.
Well, this is something I think we could be into.
Gen Zers are swearing by this hygiene routine.
They're calling it the everything shower.
Now, what they've done here is sort of take something
that I think we've just all been doing for our lives
and put a name to it and said, we created this.
Oh, really?
Okay.
Yeah, so it is, it sort of feels like, not great if you're in a drought,
not great if you're trying to save money on your water bill.
They're having three hour long everything showers.
What?
How does your, I mean, unless you've got like continuous hot water with gas.
Even then you're using a lot of gas.
Yeah.
I've never even stayed in a shower for longer than like.
They're still living at home.
Of course they are.
Of course they are.
They're not paying the power bill.
Because they can't afford a house.
Of course they are.
But who was allowed to shower for longer than like 10 minutes at home?
No way.
Without a doof, doof, doof on the door.
Get out of there.
Out you get.
When we had the fire...
In winter, when the fire was roaring and we had the wetback,
which heats the water off the fire,
we were allowed long showers
because if you didn't use the hot water, it would rum water off the fire. We were allowed long showers because if you
didn't use the hot water, it would rumble.
It would sound like it was going to blow the pipes apart.
Oh, wow.
That's such a weird invention, eh, the wetbacks?
Great invention. Yeah.
Makes sense. Heat the house, heat the water.
So these are, according to Gen Z,
it's a shower that takes hours.
Yeah. You know, one to three, I guess.
And encapsulates skin care, shaving, cleaning, grooming,
and listening to your favourite music.
The everything shower.
The everything shower.
So you'd wash your hair, I guess.
You'd do a hair treatment.
Then you'd wash that out.
Maybe do a double condition.
Full skincare routine.
You're going to be a wrinkler.
Yeah.
You're going to be a wrinkler.
I get bored three hours in the shower.
I love, I'll do a 15 minute, you know, where I just sort of luxury shower.
I wash my hair and shave my bits and stuff.
And then that's sort of it.
I don't want to stay in there much longer.
I've had a hungover sleep in a shower, but then you wake up and the hot water runs out.
It goes cold.
Which is probably quite good for you when you've got a hangover.
A little surprise cold. Well, it's a trend that's been viewed over 8. It goes cold. Cold. Which is probably quite good for you when you've got a hangover. Yeah, that cold. Or surprise cold.
Cold water.
Well, it's a trend that's been viewed over 8.2 million times.
A lot of people are just saying this is the new way.
Like they just have their quick little showers during the week.
Aren't we trying to like not use as much water?
Yeah, we're trying to save the planet.
Yeah, there's cities, famously cities running out of water
or the water supply is being overwhelmed by like storm water.
And then it's like, oh, don't use water for a couple of days.
Our treatment plant can't handle it.
Yeah.
Someone said three hours is about right if you want to take your time with everything.
No, no, no, no.
That's too long.
Three hours?
You'd be better having a bath.
Yeah.
You know, they're always like, oh, don't have a bath.
It's a waste of water for how long you're in there.
But if you're in there for three hours, that's probably a good use of a bath. Oh, I love a bath. Oh, I having a bath. Yeah. You know, they're always like, oh, don't have a bath. It's a waste of water for how long you're in there. But if you're in there for three hours, that's probably a good use of a bath.
Oh, I love a bath.
Oh, I love a bath.
But not for like that long because I get hot.
You start sweating.
Yeah.
Do you do that thing where you push some of your body out of the water?
Yeah.
Sort of thrusts fall off.
And then you cool off and then you drop back in.
And then the water gets too cold so you've got to heat it up.
And then you heat and you push yourself out.
You never quite get it right.
Do you do that thing where you pretend your penis is a submarine?
Yep.
Do you do that thing
where you pretend
your penis is a little
underground undersea volcano
and it's breaching
the surface for the first time?
Yeah.
Good fun.
Yeah.
And then do you do that thing
where you tuck your penis away
and pretend you're a woman
having a bath?
Yes.
We've all done that before,
eh, once?
He's tucked it away.
Every guy has tucked it away and been like, heh.
Yeah, well, I do quite like having a bath.
I'm a lady.
A lady bath.
I'm a lady now.
Well, maybe that's the sort of more millennial version.
Well, yeah, you've got to do something to pass the time in a bath.
Gen Z's are probably cancelling themselves, eh?
They tuck it away and then they're like, oh no, you can't
do that, you're cancelled. You can't do that. Get out of the bar.
Ginger is a construct. Yeah.
Whereas we were pretending to be lovely ladies in
Western times having a bar. I saved up
my 25 cents from whoring
and such, and now I'm having
myself a lovely bath to
wash away my sins.
I hope my husband's no more, Kim.
Well, he's out in the gold mine.
That's how I've been doing my prostitute.
To you.
Play.
ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six.
Hello there, George Hampton.
Good luck to you.
He is a Harvard-educated Fulbright scholar
who also part-owns New Zealand ice cream franchise Mr Whippy.
He is going to be going for the North Shore's
Labor seat in the upcoming election.
Harvard-educated.
That's so weird.
That's so Kiwi of you.
I know.
You've been to her.
Someone went to one of the most respected
Colleges
Universities in the world
And you're like
Oh okay
That's the sort of person
That probably should be involved
In running the country
That might have some
Yeah
Some good thoughts
But
Oh
Think you're better than us
Do you
Yeah
Think you're better than us
I mean you
You think you're the exact
Sort of person
That should be running
A country do you
Because you're better
Than the average Joe do Yep Which is such a sort of person that should be running a country, do you? Because you're better than the average Joe, do you?
Which is such a weird...
Yeah, you probably should be.
Yeah, you're right.
It's very Kiwi.
You want ice cream now?
Yeah.
Well, the best man to see.
Media's certainly latched onto this angle.
Yeah.
Owning a Mr. Whoopie franchise.
Well, I've got the top six political policies from Mr. Whoopie himself.
Okay.
Who is an ice cream.
Oh, no, he's the boy on the back that looks like Dennis the Menace.
I always thought that was him.
Which one's Mr.
No, I thought the Mr. Whippy.
Frosty Boy.
No, I thought Mr. Whippy had legs and arms.
Mr. Whippy was an ice cream cone.
Yeah, but he had legs and arms, right?
And eyes.
And face.
And a mouth.
Yeah.
Yes.
That's right.
Where was the mouth on the cone?
Yes, on the cone.
Frosty Boy's face. Frosty Boy was Dennis the Menace. Oh, That's right. Where was the mouth? On the cone. Yes, on the cone. Frosty Boy's face
was Dennis the Menace.
Oh, yeah, right.
He looked so much like
Dennis the Menace.
I always thought
Frosty Boy was lucky
to avoid
legal action.
What happened to Frosty Boy?
Did he get run out of town?
He had problematic tweets.
He grew up into Frosty Man
and that was just creepy.
It's just creepy.
Yeah.
Problematic tweets from the 90s.
Yeah.
Would you like an ice cream cone?
No, Frosty Man, leave me alone.

Top six political policies from Mr. Whippy himself.
Number six on the list.
No junk food in schools,
but parked up outside
after school,
absolutely.
Absolutely fine.
Just when the parents
turn up with the money.
The guy,
there's often an ice cream truck
parked outside our girls' school,
but people buy
the lollies from him.
August ran past me.
I was like, where are you going?
And she ran to the ice cream van, but she's bought a whole lot of rainbow straps.
Oh, yeah.
No ice cream.
They have lots of other stuff now, I guess.
And then I said, why would you buy it from him?
Because he's just buying it, marking it up and selling it on to you.
You'd be best to buy it from the dairy or...
Direct.
And she's like, what, are you going to take me to the dairy?
I was like, you've got a very good point.
I'm not taking you to the dairy. Oh my god, you're
such a scary
future ahead of you. She's already
got it worked out. I wouldn't have taken her to the dairy.
Number five on the list of the
top six political policies from Mr.
Whippy, every policy will be
chocolate dipped. Yum.
That's just the way it is.
And number four on the list
of the top six political policies
from Mr. Whippy,
if you pay your GST on time,
you get a free flake.
Yes.
Whoa.
Yeah.
They'll pop a little flake
in the round.
How much is a flake
if you just got a soft serve now,
Mr. Whippy,
or Frosty Boy,
or whoever?
It used to be like a dollar, right?
Like you'd add in a dollar.
Dude, no, no, no.
We're living in a different world now. Soft serves.
But it's only like, it's a third of a flake bar.
It's like a favorites flake size,
isn't it? Yeah, they're little. They're little.
No, it was a bit longer than a favorites. They're not a whole flake.
No, it was in between a whole flake and a mini flake.
You're saying it's a half a flake. No, I think it's...
It's like the McDonald's flakes, the same size.
Is it? Okay. Like that. You reckon it's like
some kind of catering... A catering
flake. A catering flake. They go to Gilmore's or something. Maybe. I think so. I think they's like some kind of catering... A catering flake. A catering flake.
They go to Gilmore's or something.
Maybe.
I think so.
I think they buy a box of the catering flakes.
I'm just looking at...
Oh, okay.
Here's a picture of Mr. Boopie Price.
I've just gone down to Frosty Boy.
Your same.
They're Oamaru.

They own it now.
It's still kicking around.
No, they're Australian Frosty Boy.
No, Frosty Boy New Zealand.
Oh, Frosty Boy NZ.
Yeah.
And there was like...
It started in the 60s.
Yeah, there was a whole lot of ice cream vans.

Cost of living has hit Mr. Whippy
What are you after?
Give me an option.
What do you want?
I want the duck.
The duck sherbet duck.
I don't know what you're talking about.
We never had the duck sherbet duck.
That's rich people.
Whipped like this and it had two licorice eyes and two white button beaks.
Sherbet duck's not even on the current list.
You're making that up.
Okay, what about just a single dip chocolate dip with flake?
You'd be rocking $4, right?
Single dip with flake, $6.
What?
That is a single standard cone.
No, just go get a nonny sundae with a flake.
Show sponsor.
Show sponsor.
Go see the show sponsor.
Yeah, they wouldn't charge you $6.
But nonnies isn't coming down the street.
Nonnies isn't coming down the street. Nonny's isn't coming down the street
and parking up outside Nana's house.
Nonny's should get in a van and come down the street.
And you know, Nan can't say no to the grandkids
but she also doesn't have
if she's got four grandkids and they just want that
that's $24. That's Nan's pension
gone. Good luck, Nan's going to freeze this winter.
Because you absolutely
cleaned her out for a Mr. Whippy.
And you didn't go crazy. I'm trying to find the duck face
soft serve. Oh look, that's not a thing.
It is definitely a thing.
Yeah. The sherbet dipped.
It was pink sherbet dipped.
I thought it was bananas that were the mouth.
And then the pebble
eyes. No, it had a beak. Yeah, but that was
the two banana lollies. No, no, it was
two white, sort of orange white
chocolate buttons. You can use any. I guess you could use any lolly, couldn't you?
You can get in there.
Oh, we've got a top six to get back to.
We could talk about ice creams all day.
Don't test us.

This is kind of a very funny story in a way.
It's out of Chennai,
formerly known as Madras,
in India.
And there were a gang of four people that put together quite an elaborate scam
to scam businessmen out of money,
trying to get them to invest in a product.
There are some insane hoaxes,
scams going on at the moment.
Yeah, I love it.
Like, do you remember about that woman at the weekend
that lost $100,000?
Dude, real estate agent?
Yeah, and, like, I think I would have fallen for that.
Like, it all just sounds...
What was it? What was the scam?
Like, they cloned...
They basically made out there was some financial advisor,
but they had, like, his...
They, like, cloned his email and numbers
a hundred thousand dollars as part of sophisticated investment scam says police told her the recipient bank account holder was likely a mule targeted by the same overseas criminals help shift cash
it's awful eh yeah there were no red flags yeah like she and she she she was like oh well i'll
google this guy and he came up because they used used a legit guy, but it just wasn't him.
Oh, like a bit of identity theft as well.
Well, no, they were just using his.
Like posing as him.
Posing as him, yeah.
She registered, she found a website that compared bank term deposit rates
and because she wanted to save for a house.
She was contacted by an intelligent and well-spoken man
with an English accent claiming to be from Citibank as a portfolio manager.
He sent prospectus information about the US financial institute,
all the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, all of this stuff.
Yeah, and then she wired this money and then the bank was like,
by the way, that was a scam.
She was like, what?
Oh, my God.
Has she got it back?
No, I don't think so.
I think she has to go through the process.
Horrible, though.
It's so like, that's the
thing now with AI and everything, it's just
going to get so scammy.
This is the good thing about not having money
to spend.
This is the good thing about being so
buried up your eyeballs
in a mortgage that it's about to
double it, triple it,
interest rates. I'm not going to have any
spare money for silly things.
Like transfer us all your money.
Yeah, so how do you transfer $4?
$81.
It's good to see you're joking about it.
Yeah.
What, are you going to do, cry about it?
Which I will do at a later time.
Well, this is a little bit more hands-on, shall we say.
There were four people posing as, I guess,
sort of developers of a kind.
Yeah.
They said they'd come up with a set of spectacles
that would allow the wearer to see through clothes,
to see the person they're looking at in the nude.
Is that...
Now, you know that that's impossible.
No.
What about that, was it a Sony Handycam they had to recall?
Do you remember that?
Yeah, because the night vision.
Was it night vision?
Yeah.
Saw through clothes.
Oh, because it would see the heat,
so it would see your body shape and stuff.
Yeah, and they were like,
oh, this is probably too good, this feature.
We'll have to recall this.
Yeah, yeah.
You see the size of all your bits.
Was it a Sony?
Well, I was like, that's a thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
Well, they targeted these people.
They targeted rich businessmen,
showed them videos of how the spectacles work,
which they'd made up,
and offered to take them to a secret location
to try them out,
where they then had a bunch of people, models,
in this room who were just nude.
And then they'd bring them in wearing the spectacles
and they'd be like,
oh my God, I can see through their clothes.
But these people were just legitimately naked, nude.
So they were like, put the glasses on
and they're like, walk glasses on and then like walk now
and then a naked person walks.
Yeah.
They'd have to walk quick
because imagine
my first thing would be
to flick it down
to be like
quick comparison.
Yeah same.
Same same same.
Anyway so
then they obviously realised
that this was a
total BS.
These businessmen gave them money
and what not.
Wait so the businessmen
fell for it?
I think so.
It sounds like it.
And then they had another scam going
at the same time. They had just sort of a few things going.
And then
they got caught because
someone had reported them.
They'd gone into,
they'd come back into town and one of the businessmen
had been like, hey, you've scammed me. I want my money
back. And then these
people who'd done the scamming
had pulled out a fake gun and all this.
It was terrible.
Oh, wow.
So what, now the poor businessman gets home
or goes into the city, he's like,
I'm going to try out these glasses.
Puts them on and they don't work.
He's like, I'm an idiot.
Oh, man.
But then you can't go to the police being like,
I bought these glasses because I wanted to see some boobies.
Yes, exactly. And the police are like, I beg your pardon because I wanted to see some boobies. Yes, exactly.
And the police are like, I beg your pardon?
And he's like, oh, I bet it works.
I don't worry about it.
And the police are like, well, you were only here because they didn't.
Otherwise, you'd be here because they did.
Yeah.
While they're in custody at the moment for, you know,
basically scamming people and taking their money
and pulling out a fake gun, they're a disaster.
But, you know, if someone comes up to you and says
that I've got an invention that allows you to see through clothes,
I think just have a little think twice.
It's not real.
Unless it was 1998 and you bought a Sony camera with night vision,
which was infrared technology,
that when the infrared lens was used in the daylight,
it would see through certain clothes, such as swimsuits,
which had a degree of transparency,
but mostly they were dark-coloured
and absorbed infrared light waves.
So to the naked eye, nothing,
but through this camera at daytime on infrared setting,
nipples.
Wow.
So if you were at the pool in your Speedos,
they would absolutely get an eyeful.
They would absolutely get an eyeful.
But if you...
So, yeah, it made thin clothing transparent, revealing the body underneath.
But you'd have a bra and undies and stuff still to look through.
This could be like a Netflix doco, that whole story.
That seems wild.
Yeah.
What a cool story.

News that Tinder is updating its guidelines.
So I guess when you sign up, you're like, yep, click accept.
You know, you play by the rules.
And starting today, Tinder are now changing a few things.
Now, you won't be able to post a social media handle or link in your bio
because, you know, a lot of people, you can link Instagram,
but people might be like, here's my Instagram at whatever
or my Snapchat at whatever.
If you do that now, Tinder are going to remove it.
Why?
Because also I just think a lot of people are kind of pimping their OnlyFans.
So they'll be like, wow, wow, we wow.
Yes.
That's a beautiful lady or man or whatever.
And you would click on it and then it would take them to their OnlyFans
and they're using it to advertise.
Gotcha.
Yes.
So you won't be able to link any social media handles,
any business promos.
Like, oh my God, you should definitely buy my magnetic car phone charger.
So great.
I sell these on the side.
Got it.
Also, I'm quite hot.
Any sex works? Any what? Sex sells. Yeah, well, no on the side. Got it. Also, I'm quite hot. Any sex works?
Any what?
Sex sells.
Yeah, well, no sex work.
You can't.
So any OnlyFans links, any kind of like...
I provide services.
I provide a service.
Couples profiles.
Oh, right, if you were looking for a third.
Yeah, because I don't think...
Facebook should ban those too, because that's embarrassing.
Dave, get your own or don't have one.
That just says to me that Dave was a little bit naughty.
Or loose with the likes back in the day.
Yeah, maybe back in the day.
Or maybe, you know, Jane just wants Dave's presence right beside her.
Yeah, Dave and Jane.
People don't think Dave's hiding anything.
Dave's got a social media account.
I manage it for Dave.
So on Tinder you can't have a couple's profile.
So Dave and Jane would just
start a profile and it would just say first name
Dave and then there'd be like
and Jane or something like that.
I've got friends who have their name
in the second one.
Also something else that they're
saying will get you banned from Tinder
or isn't allowed anymore,
posting private chats in public forums.
You know, there's like all those kind of like pages
like funny Tinder messages or whatever.
Oh, what's the one?
I don't know how they'll police that though.
Tinder name is.
Yeah.
It's a big one.
But I don't know how they'll police it.
Yeah, because they'll just cut out your username.
They'd have to, catch you doing it
and then find your profile and then ban you.
But, yeah, they've said that that's not allowed.
They've said that any poly couples or couples posting together,
you're going to need separate bios.
That's a bit rough.
Yeah.
And, yeah, no fundraising...
They're already made of plastic.
It's pretty hard for poly couples to find anybody.
I see what you did there.
I like how they say there's no fundraising, campaigning or...
Buy my kids chocolate bars.
Yes.
And then you can come around and have a hood on as mum.
I love this.
And they say there's no compensated relationships allowed.
What does that mean?
Oh, sugar babies!
So you can't say now, I'm looking for a sugar daddy or a sugar baby.
A compensated relationship.
That's an interesting way to put it.
It's a really fun way of putting it, isn't it?
So yeah, if you're looking for a sugar daddy or a sugar mama.
You've got to go on the websites.
Well, or you just don't say it.
Yeah, there's ways.
They'll use new emojis to mean something now.
100% to get around it.
If I have this pineapple, it means this and that and the other.
What is the pineapple, man?
Swingers.
Isn't that it?
Okay.
Looking for a schwing-de-ling.
Yeah, that's, wasn't it a thing a little while ago?
Yeah.
The pineapple.
Goodness.
I'm just so naive to these things.
Can I see your profile?
I don't have it.
I don't have one.
You're not on any of the dating sites.
Were you swiping on someone's the other day because you got excited?
Yeah, I was.
People like you who are in couples, have been in couples before Tinder.
You just can't say that to us.
People like you.
Happy, stable.
Yeah.
Your type.
Your type. You both love getting on a single person's Tinder. Happy, stable. Yeah. You both. Your type. Your type.
You both love getting on a single person's Tinder.
I love it.
I see you both light up and the rest of us are just like,
oh, it's not that great, honestly.
I sometimes light up and other times I'm like,
oh, this is like bleak.
I get it.
Yeah.
You got to do, yeah, people need to do better on their profiles.

So in September 2010, I went to the dentist.
Great.
And I didn't know I had a problem, but I needed a root canal, an RC.
And a very good dentist drilled it out, did all the root canal stuff.
And I told him, I'm off to Thailand for my honeymoon,
so I'll get it done over there.
And he was like, well, good luck to you.
And he put on a temporary metal top to the tooth that I'm sure has a technical name.
Now, that temporary metal top, wasn't it a temporary crown?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But a metal one.
Not an emulment.
God, that's how long ago, because my temporary crown looked like a tooth. Yeah. Yeah. But a metal one. Not an emul... God, that's how long ago,
because my temporary crown looked like a tooth.
Yeah.
And fillings now look like your tooth.
So then when we got to Thailand,
I never ended up going to the dentist.
Because you're having a good time.
Yeah.
And then the temporary crown was sweet,
so I was just like, I'll leave it be.
In 2015, on a family holiday to Fiji,
the top bit chipped off in my mouth,
and I went and spat it onto a plate
and I was like, what was that?
Then I ran my tongue over it and I was like, oh, that feels a bit different.
But again, it doesn't hurt and I can still eat, so no harm, no foul.
Now all is going well 13 years later.
Yeah.
Until a wedding in Wanaka where I was descending the bus stairs
and it was wet and I slipped from from one, I hadn't been drinking.
I slipped from one step to the next step.
Now it was a good foot and a bit dropped.
As I did, my elbow hit the hand rail immediately.
But I didn't realize at the time,
I'd also punched myself in the face.
When my elbow hit the hand rail, my poof in the face.
Now the elbow hurt so much,
I think my body was dealing with the fact
I couldn't feel my fingers.
It picked a line.
It picked a line.
Then when that kind of wore off over the next couple of days,
I was like, this tooth's sore.
Oh.
Oopsie.
Daisy.
So reluctantly, I booked in to go to the dentist.
Now, that was probably the last you heard of it because after the dentist,
I had to take two days off work because I was an absolute wreck.
But tooth pain is so
different to
knocking an elbow or hurting a knee
or whatever. It just
ruins your... I don't want to say name
I don't want to name names but
somebody in the profession said
it's on par with childbirth
but because your body doesn't release any of the
chemicals that it releases during childbirth,
you just have to sit.
And it lasts for however long it's going to last.
So basically what Vaughn just said there
is it's not as bad.
That giving
birth is not that bad.
I was in a two-day labour
with no sweet little
cherub at the end and my body releasing chemicals
so I'd forget it and want to do it again one day.
You're right.
Because I don't want to do it again one day.
My body was ingesting chemicals called tramadol
and it still doesn't want to do it again.
So I went and a very lovely day, very caring,
zero judgment for the fact I hadn't been for 13 years,
which I was, to be honest, the cost was the main concern,
but also being a grown man with children who I say, yeah,
you've got to go to the dentist twice a year for your checkups.
You've got your teeth coming in.
You've got to look after your teeth at this stage.
And I'm always hounding them to brush their teeth.
Daddy's a hypocrite.
Dad's a big fat hypocrite because he had them in for 13 years.
So there was no judgment, which I thought was fantastic.
Then what I thought was even more fantastic was the dentist is like,
oh, this is definitely ACC.
To which I was like,
da-da-na, da-da-na, da-da-na.
Very happy about it. Spending less money.
Yeah, because she said the crack, there was a crack
in the tooth that was an impact fracture.
Right. So I was like, that's when I punched myself
in the face. Yeah. God, you
must have been strong. Good for you.
You should do some kind of
fight for life and don't want to. Yes, for sure. Who would you fight? Who would go and strong? Good for you. You should do some kind of fight for life. Don't want to.
Yes, for sure.
Who would you fight?
Who would Bourne fight?
Probably you.
No.
They'd probably put you together against each other.
This moneymaker can't take hits to the face.
Yeah.
And I'm definitely the dominant.
He's the submissive.
What about Clint?
I don't want to fight Clint.
He's got long arms.
He's from Rotorua.
You're a funny guy who grew up in the mean streets.
Yeah.
Me versus Brie.
You versus Clint.
No, I'm not fighting anybody.
I think fight for life is ridiculous.
It's good for raising money,
but they're raising money for people with mental health issues
in a sport known to give brain issues
that can cause further mental health issues.
I'm just saying it doesn't really matter out my head.
Sounds like he's scared. Sounds like he's scared.
Sounds like he's scared.
But he's also very scared.
Yeah.
So I punched myself in the face.
I cracked not only the tooth that had the temporary crown on it,
but the tooth behind it's got a crack in it.
Oh, my goodness.
No problem with that one yet,
so I might wait another 13 years to deal with that.
But I had it all drilled out, all the old one all drilled out,
and then refilled up with this guy, who's drilling it off now.
You had a look.
It looks quite good for, you know.
When it wore off, I was like, this is fantastic.
And I said to Shanae, look at my pants.
Because it was all like half numb and I couldn't speak probably.
But the minute it wore off, I was like, oh my God.
And it was just like constant throbbing pain.
And the tramadols weren't even touching the sides. So after two days, I found the sweetest relief was a wheat bag,
a hot wheat bag.
So on Thursday morning, and I say morning because it was from about 12.30 a.m.
to 4.30 a.m., I stayed up just constantly walking back and forth
to the microwave, re-heading a wheat bag to put back on my face.
And, yeah, and then it wore off eventually.
And here I am.
And it's still not 100%, but it's much better.
And I've got dentist appointments booked up.
And I'm even going to go to a,
I believe it's pronounced Haginia.
Yeah, Haginia.
Haginia.
Yeah.
Haginia.
Good there.
But no need for any other fillings.
See, that is wild.
After 13 years, nothing like, she said everything else looks fine.
You must have hard teeth.
No, because I've had so many fillings.
Oh, okay.
So everything's already filled.
You basically don't have any teeth.
It's all filler.
It's all filler.
And receding gums.
You're like a sausage.
I got the receding gums chat.
Did you get the receding gums chat?
I saw a receding gums chat.
Did you get the floss chat? No, but you floss. No, because I floss. You do, yeah. I got the receding gums chat. Did you get the receding gums chat? I saw a receding gums chat. Did you get the floss chat?
No, but you floss.
No, because I floss.
You do, yeah.
I floss regularly.
She said you can see that you're a flosser.
Did you say flosser or tosser?
I can't remember.
Because we're on some drugs.
All four wisdom teeth in.
Yep.
Growing through.
Straight.
No need.
Very wise.
Oh, stop showing off.
So wise.
I just look at food and get a filling.
I know.
I've got soft little teeth.
Next on the show, Facebook's had a whoopsie.
This is quite bad.
Mate, this might affect you too.
Oh, no.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Now, Facebook has, Meta, the Facebook's company,
have issued a statement about this.
And this is quite shocking and surprising for a lot of people.
But a Facebook glitch has enabled a lot of people who are viewing people's profile to accidentally send a friend request.
Oh, kill me.
So people that are stalking people on Facebook.
Or looking at your old exes and stuff.
Yes, have then had friend requests sent by a glitch.
But at what stage?
Leaving their page or clicking on the profile picture or?
So the glitch saw any account a user had visited
be automatically sent
a friend request. The bug lasted for
less than a day until it was fixed by the team
at Meta. So it is fixed now
and they've said we've stopped this from
happening and we apologise for any inconveniences
may have caused. So I don't
think it was everyone you've ever stalked
or visited. It was just if you
because somebody's got a screen recording
and I think it was just a Facebook app
on people's phones.
Oh yeah.
So somebody screen recorded it.
Basically they went to a random person's profile
and then it requested their friendship
just when they visited it.
So there would have been people
in the last week or so,
if you were stalking someone,
it may have happened to you.
I'm just looking up a couple of sort of exes
and seeing if I'm still friends with any of them.
No, not really.
But yeah, people have been sharing their horror stories.
It's happened to them.
Can you imagine that you're just doing a...
Especially if you hate stalking.
Kids gather round and let granddad tell you about the time that...
Before it was Messenger,
where you could just send messages on Facebook.
That's right.
One day Facebook's like, there's been a whoopsie,
and it turns out that some of the messages you've sent to people
may now be historic wall posts.
Yes.
I remember this, and it was nuts.
And everyone was just like, what did you just say to me?
Because it would go into your timeline.
But the worst part was they could have just said that might have happened.
But instead they said any chat between July 2009 and December 2009
may now be on the wall in the form of a conversation
because they'd been using the same coding.
Because you used to write on someone's wall and they'd write on your wall, back and forth, back and forth.
But then it became Messenger.
No, Messages before it was Messenger.
Yeah.
And apparently used the same coding for the back and forth.
And so it was like from July 2000.
So everybody was just immediately like to their own profile,
scroll, scroll all the way back.
We found some, eh?
Did we find some?
It didn't happen to me. Because when I scrolled all the way back, I was some, eh? Did we find some?
No, it didn't happen to me.
Because when I scrolled all the way back,
I was like,
there's nothing in here.
I think I might have had a couple.
There were like two or three.
But there were people
that were in big trouble.
Because not only it exposed
people talking to people
they shouldn't have been talking to
in the naughty noughties,
but it exposed people
like full bitching about people.
Yeah, that would be my thing.
Yeah, it was bad.
What were they saying about the people in this chat? I be my thing. Yeah, it was bad. What were they saying
about the people in this chat?
I miss Snapchat's top five,
top three friends.
That was so brilliant
for catching people cheating.
Oh, yeah, the people
you messaged the most.
Yeah, you'd be like,
oh, you've got like a boyfriend
or a girlfriend,
but your like literally
number one Snapchat friend
is this hot model.
Yeah, you've got a streak with.
You'd be like, what?
And then they got rid of that that was no fun
or do you remember
when you could see
what people were liking
on Instagram
that was the best
you'd go into activity
you'd go into the activity feed
and you could see
Vaughn Smith likes
hot model
no Vaughn Smith doesn't like
he just
hot model
washes from afar
you know what's worse
is when someone's got
a carousel of images
and so you're just
clicking next next and you get to the last one and you're likeousel of images and so you're just clicking next, next, next
and you get to the last one
and you click it once
and you're like,
oh, it didn't work.
Click it again
and it's like, like,
and you're like, undo.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
You're like, oh, yeah.
Nah, flick, flick, flick.
Next one, next one, next one.
Oh, it didn't work.
Click it again.
But if they're on their phone.
Like, boop.
They'll see it.
They'll see it, yeah.
If they're on their phone
in that particular moment
it'll be like,
oh, it's like this.
And then they click on it
and it's like,
oh, I can't see that he's like that.
So he is unlike that. I thought with this news
that, yeah, there was a Facebook
bug that was accidentally following
profiles for a while that you just looked at.
Have you been caught
stalking?
Did you double tap a photo?
Did you accidentally
send a thumbs up? Did someone see
that you'd recently searched their name on something?
Yes.
Yeah.
I don't think I have been caught.
Did they catch you in a car outside their house?
We're not doing old school stalking, eh?
No, no.
Just online stalking.
Did you go to send, you know on Instagram it's got that little paper airplane
and you can click send and then you send it to somebody else.
Did you send it back to the person who posted it?
That's the worst.
When you're like bitching about someone in here.
I've done that.
Top of your mind, you send it to them.
And then you just go, ha, jokes.
Oh, get a grip.
No one's believing ha, ha, jokes.
No one's believing that.
No one is.
So 0800-DARLS-NM, give us a call.
You can text her as well, 9696.
When were you caught in a digital stalk?
Well, Facebook had a bug recently where if you went to a random Facebook profile.
Makes me want to just like leave town.
I know, like you were stalking someone and X maybe it would send them a friend request.
This is a bug.
It has been fixed now and it has affected some people.
We want to know, when you were caught stalking,
maybe you accidentally liked a photo?
Yeah.
Do you know what I've been doing this whole time
is just Googling past boyfriends.
Well, no, don't do that now because if the glitch kicks in,
although I think because you're using desktop browser,
this was only on the Facebook app, but they have fixed it. So I think you were because you were using desktop browser. This was only on the Facebook app. But they have
fixed it. So I think you're free to
stalk away. Anonymous,
when did you get caught stalking?
Saturday night.
Oh!
So how did you get caught?
Saturday night's a great night for stalking.
I was. So my brother
and I had a discussion earlier in the week about
our old principal.
Don't say his name. Don't say his name. Um, I was, so my brother and I had had a discussion earlier in the week about our old principal. Oh yeah.
Don't say his name, don't say his name.
I won't say his name.
Good, good girl, don't say his name.
Um, and he was like, I've never been able to find him.
I wonder what happened to him.
So I'm, I'm like, Facebook stalker is my, should be one of my job descriptions.
Okay.
I'm really good at it.
Yeah.
So I, um, I went digging and I first, I found his daughter.
So upon hearing about this glitch, I've gone back to have a look.
And I have seen his daughter, a friend request.
Wait, so it did work?
So it was the glitch?
It was the glitch, yeah.
Oh my God.
His family, because I went digging around him first.
So I've reached out to his family and just sent little friend requests here and there.
Oh, my God.
Before getting to the principal
and sending him a friend request also.
I'm married now, so hopefully my name's changed.
Maybe it's just nobody will know who I am.
They're going to be sitting down for a Sunday dinner
as families with principals in the family always do.
Actually, do you know what?
Now that you mention it,
I got a couple of friend requests on Facebook over the weekend,
which was weird from random people.
I always get them.
Yeah, I get them because I'm a man of the people.
You are a man of the people.
I get them because I'm a hot piece of ass.
So if you were talking,
so that would be the day then, Saturday.
And so do you end up finding the principal
but you've friended half of his family?
Yeah.
Have you cancelled all these pending friend requests?
No, I didn't want to cancel
because then that looks weirder.
No, because they haven't seen them.
You've got to cancel.
It's bizarre behaviour.
Cancel them.
Anonymous, thank you so much.
It's amazing. Keep your texts coming in. Anonymous, thank you so much. It's the only thing to do.
Keep your texts coming in.
9696, when have you been caught stalking?
So if you go to friends on now and look in your outgoing friend requests,
you'll see if this has done it to you.
Running, running now.
Running now.
Run, don't walk.
Well, I have Facebook.
I've just received four messages.
How do I find the outgoing friend requests?
So you've got to do this on your desktop because I just tried on my phone.
I couldn't see an option.
In a browser, Facebook.com, blah, blah, blah.
Underneath the top left-hand corner where it says your name, it'll say friends.
Click on friends.
Then click on friend requests.
Then it will show you people who have friend requested you,
and it'll say view sent requests.
Now, these are people that you have requested that haven't yet accepted.
Yeah.
So that will show.
I had two from ages ago, and it hurt.
Yeah, I've had a few.
Aaron's brother, Rob, hasn't accepted me.
Weirdly, Aaron is in my – he hasn't accepted my friend request.
Yeah, he doesn't go on.
I mean, yesterday at the pub,
we agreed that we were doing a motorbike tour of Scottish whiskey distilleries,
but he still doesn't want to be my Facebook friend.
He's playing very hard.
Vaughn says, please accept his friend request.
No, no, I don't want to seem desperate.
I don't want to seem desperate.
He's very hurt.
Well, this was a Facebook bug over the weekend.
We just heard from someone that it happened to in New Zealand.
It looks like Saturday was the time.
And if you just went to somebody's profile
on the Facebook app on your phone,
it sent a friend request.
So you can then go into those like Vaughan just said you can go in
and you can cancel, although they've likely already seen it.
Because I had a couple of requests over the weekend,
which I don't normally get.
And I was like, why?
Because you're not a very approachable person.
I'm not very approachable, whereas Vaughan's a man
and the people get seized all the time.
All the time.
And I appreciate it.
I see every one of them and then ignore them.
Anonymous, good morning.
Good morning.
When did you get caught stalking?
It was about a couple of weeks ago now,
and I was on my ex's ex's Instagram page.
Love that.
Your ex's ex's.
Now, was that an ex before you were an ex or after you were an ex?
After me.
So they were the next one after you.
Okay, and what did you do?
I accidentally liked one of her photos
down her timeline.
Way down her timeline too?
Oh, that's a storm.
Idiot.
It was about halfway.
Yeah, you're pretty good.
If you do unlike, because remember we've tested this on air before.
If you do unlike it, it does remove it from the notification screen.
Yeah, but unless I'm on Instagram and it will just go, boom,
fletch like, what do you do?
See it straight away.
Yeah.
Good luck with that.
Thank you, Anonymous.
Annie, when did you get caught stalking?
So my dad and my stepmom like broke up
Yep
And I went to like stalk her Facebook page
Okay
And by this time she unfriended me
But I still know all her passwords
And her email and everything for her
You know stepmom's passwords?
Oh my god wild
It's probably the cat's name It's always the cat's name It's always the cat's name And 123 her passwords and her email and everything for us. What are your stepmum's passwords? Oh, my God, wild.
It's probably the cat's name.
It's always the cat's name.
It's always the cat's name. And 123.
And 123.
Yeah.
See?
Rolly123.
Yeah.
That's not anyone had that.
Don't have any clues.
So I tried to log into her account through her email,
or no, her iCloud and stuff.
And then I sent her a phone email saying I tried to log in.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Because often if you log in from a new browser,
it'll send you a Facebook notification saying,
hey, apparently you're in Tiaomutu and you're trying to log in. And it'll do something for the first time.
Also, what you're doing is illegal, by the way.
You know that, eh?
Naughty.
We'll change your name to Anonymous.
Anonymous.
Yeah, Anonymous.
Wow, so she gets that notification and you're busted.
Annie, thank you.
We'll finish up with Tracy.
When did you get caught stalking?
Oh, no, I'm not a stalker, but I have been stalked.
When I had first started dating my now husband,
we'd probably been dating a couple of months, and he was
away on a conference. I woke up on
a Sunday morning in there and my notifications
was his ex-wife tagged into
my profile picture.
Oh! She'd made
a big mistake. Oh!
She clicked the wrong button.
Oh, I love that.
I love that.
That's juicy. And that would have popped up in her timeline because she tagged herself and all of her friends would have been like, that's not her.
I love that, Tracy.
Thank you.
Tracy.
It's happening to a lot of people.
Oh, so many.
So someone said, should I be disappointed in my friend request?
There's only one and it's been there for a while.
No one's stalked me.
Yeah, it is a bit sad.
It's because everybody knows you're hot and they don't need to go on your Facebook page because you're so hot you make
them feel stinking about themselves. Alright guys. Next on the show
we've got a news update for you
and then it is the interview that we have all
been waiting for.
Hayley got to meet her pass card at the weekend.
Jason Momoa, the interview is coming up.
Play ZM's Fletchford and Hayley.
Play ZM.
Big day on Saturday, wasn't it?
Now, I have to say, so many people have been so excited for me
because we posted the video of you guys basically surprising me
on Thursday to tell me that I wasn't interviewing Jason,
in which I had a full meltdown, somewhat of a panic attack,
screamed no for a long time, and then booked a hair appointment.
Thank God I did.
It was commented upon.
Anyway, and so many people have just been messaging saying,
like, good luck, you've got this, you've got this,
to the point where I did.
I felt a bit of pressure for the people.
They wanted so badly for me to achieve.
So on Saturday when we met up, knowing that I was about
to interview Jason, I was so nervous.
Like not sort of me being like, he, he, he, entertaining nervous.
Authentically sitting in the corner drinking a glass of Prosecco,
not talking to anyone nervous.
Now at that stage, you'd already had two shots of tequila.
Two shots of tequila and I had a Prosecco at the holding area, I guess,
because this is my first ever in-person press junket.
I've never done one before.
There are weird,
there are, yeah,
for people who see them on television
but don't know the behind the scenes of them,
it's weird.
And we haven't done them for a while
because of COVID.
It's all been over Zoom lately,
which is great
because it doesn't involve flying to Sydney
for five minutes with somebody.
But you basically go in a room
with all the other media and you're called in one by one. You pretty much for five minutes with somebody. Yes. But you basically go in a room with all the other media
and you're called in one by one.
You pretty much get five minutes, super tight turnaround.
They video it.
They do the audio.
And then they're like, we'll send it to you.
So you marched in.
You've got little to no time to build a rapport.
So in a day, they could have done 100 interviews.
Yeah.
They crank through them.
They go through them.
He'd already done a morning of Zoom, so
the media all over the world. And you're only promised
five minutes, and they're there all day.
So you just think how many five minutes
you can fit in. And if you get to the point where
you're being told to wrap it up, but the person
you're interviewing is the one that keeps talking, you're like,
this is good. This is going well.
This is going well. They want to keep
talking, but it's always quite hard.
And nobody likes doing these things.
No.
And I have been given.
Like the stars that you see,
they're a little bit dead behind the eyes a lot of the time
because they're just tired.
They don't want to be there.
But it's cool when you get an up and comer who's excited to be there.
Yes.
Or someone who's generally like loves the project.
Yeah.
Well, I had sort of been given a slight,
because they don't tell you even what order,
and I kept saying it.
Vaughan, I was like, why won't they tell me?
Why won't they tell me?
And everyone's like, oh, I don't know.
Sometimes they change the order.
Make an excuse and say, well, I've got to go earlier
and all this kind of stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
And then a couple of people started getting plucked.
It was like War of the Worlds.
The big hand came down and plucked you out,
and you were like, ah!
And then I was just sitting in the corner,
absolutely stewing and brewing,
kept catching Carwen's eye across the room
and she was giving me reassuring sort of nods and shenan.
I was quivering and then we just heard Hayley
and I was like, oh my God.
Genuinely nervous.
Like all of my charm, all of my professionalism,
all of my humour just felt like it went goodbye
and left me as like a little shell of a person.
So we saw you getting into the elevator to go up to wherever they were doing this.
Yes.
And you were excited?
Yeah, I was.
And there was a beautiful, lovely man called Paul
who was a security guard standing outside the room that he was in
and someone was in there before me.
And he said, oh, I've just been given a bit of a word that he's a bit tired.
He was out with Bloody Tyke the night before, so I've just been given a bit of a word that he's a bit tired. He's been, he was out with Bloody Tyke the night before
so I think he was probably a bit dusty
but also he'd been on Zoom all morning.
So the general vibe was that he was feeling a bit flat.
And then the person came out before me
and I was like, now's my time.
And then someone else came out and they said,
he just wants to have a quick break.
So I was like, man, this dude is over it.
Yeah. So I get myself up,
the door opened and they said, Hayley.
And I walked on in and
did my interview.
Hi. Hi. Welcome.
Pleasure, Jason. Pleasure.
How are you? I'm really well. I like your boots.
Thanks, man. Killer. I like your
hemp sneakers. Yeah, thank you.
Yeah, I follow you on the gram. If I seem a little nervous, this is actually my first press junket. Really? Yeah, my. Killer. I like your hemp sneakers. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, I follow you on the gram.
If I seem a little nervous, this is actually my first press junket.
Really?
Yeah, my first ever.
Wow.
Yeah, and I've had two shots of tequila and a glass of Prosecco downstairs.
She's ready.
She's ready.
I love it.
Jason, I saw your film yesterday.
Yeah.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
I feel like maybe some people like myself would think that Fast and Furious franchise was not for me.
Like, I'm not the target audience
maybe, but now you're in it
I feel quite targeted
to be fair
like directly, quite immediately
targeted
I loved your character, the fashion darling
the darling
the nails, everything
did you have
oh yeah, you did the nails did you have much input with the clothes that the nails, everything. Did you have much... That's my girl. Oh, yeah, you did the nails?
Did you have much input with the clothes that you wore?
Because I loved it.
Yeah, it's actually...
I pulled that outfit from my costume designer,
who was my last movie, Trish Somerville.
It was a woman's outfit, and then I took it,
and I went, let's make this bigger.
Yeah.
And it was fabulous.
But I just wanted to use...
I thought it would be... Pastels are just so welcoming and inviting.
Yeah.
Not scary.
So if I had met the devil or something that was completely evil and it was not scary, I could approach it.
Yeah.
And all of a sudden it got me.
And then you're like, oh, shit, now I'm in trouble.
And so I wanted to make something that.
Softens.
It just, yeah, they didn't take it too seriously.
And then when they got in close to it,
it was the scariest thing that, you know,
it was obsessed with you.
But this is what I love,
is that you don't take it too seriously.
Like, I feel it with a lot of your characters, right?
You're an evil bastard, Jason, in this film.
You're so mean!
I know.
You're so mean!
I know.
But you've got such a great sense of humour.
I'm a comedian as well, by the way.
I've actually put two tickets on the door
for my comedy show tonight.
I know you've got the premiere,
but I'll just give you the flyer.
It's just,
that's me tonight.
It's sold out,
but I can make space
for you.
Oh, look at that.
Yeah.
There's just two tickets
under your name,
under the door at Q Theatre.
You can come.
I love it.
Congratulations.
Yes,
stuff the premiere.
It's going to be boring.
Now,
look,
you're, let me just refer to my notes my first junket now obviously um i watched the film and i i can't help but think about the backstory of the people
whose like lives are ruined you know by the cars that sort of like pummel through their businesses
and i sort of wondered if maybe we could like do like a spin-off film, you and I. Yeah. Like, we play, like, a... Cos I'm an actor, I went to drama school, three years.
We're, like, an Italian couple.
Yeah.
And our business has been destroyed by the fast,
very fast and actually quite furious cars
that drive through our shop.
Yeah.
And we're going to rebuild our shop
and our marriage at the same time.
I'm in.
Are you in?
I'm f***ing in.
Like, oh, my darling, the shop is ruined.
My darling, the shop is ruined. My darling, the shop is ruined.
What are we going to do, my love?
What are we going to do, my love?
And I'm pregnant.
We should make more.
Yes, we should make more babies.
Yes, we should make more babies.
But we've got no money income.
How are we going to raise the baby?
It doesn't matter.
We have sex.
We will eat each other.
Yes.
Okay.
The story writes itself, Jason.
It does. You're so talented. Okay. The story writes itself, Jason. It does.
You're so talented.
Okay.
I'm honestly extremely talented.
You're also very talented.
It's too much talent.
We don't even need a script.
We don't.
It's an improv film.
I think like a pencil mustache.
Yeah, like the dirtiest little.
Yes, right on the lip.
On me or you?
On me.
Okay, on you.
I'll go clean.
I'll go clean shaven.
You go clean.
Yeah.
Okay.
Let's dye your hair dark black. Yes. Dark black. Okay go clean. I'll go clean shaven. You go clean, yeah. Okay. With dire hair, dark black.
Yes. Dark black. Okay.
No? I like where it's at. Okay, you're like
where it's at?
I think you're kind of just perfect the way you are.
Oh my god, I think you're perfect.
Can we get a lapel mic
on me, please?
My darling.
My darling.
I'm going to work on it. One last question.
I just want to ask you.
I know you're looking for a New Zealand citizenship at the moment.
I want to live here.
I haven't actually tried to get one yet, but I need to do that once I'm not working all the time.
There's a real quick way around it, Justin.
Yeah?
Yeah.
This engagement ring does not have a wedding ring with it, so it could be quite easy.
This is your first time?
Yeah.
Come here.
Give me a hug. This is the best.? Yeah. Come here, give me a hug.
This is the best.
You're the best.
Thank you, Jason.
You're welcome.
But seriously, I would happily marry you.
I'm going to sit on that one, okay?
And I won't sit on you.
Can I get a photo with you, Jason?
Yes, right here.
Yes. I'll even take it? Yes, right here. Yes.
I'll even take it. Oh my god, yes.
Oh my god.
You are the man. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. Absolute pleasure.
Good luck tonight. I'll see you at my new show tonight.
Don't say good luck, just be there.
Wonderful.
Bye.
Bye.
Honestly,
if I won't sit on you
I was going to say
The worst part of the whole thing is
We have no money
What will we eat?
We will eat each other
And when you see the video
The look in his eye
Oh wow
Oh my god
So the video is being edited
And it will be out tonight
The look on his face
You can see him turn, right?
Some of the rustling you hear, like at one point he says,
because I told him it's my first in person to press junk
and he says you're doing great and gives me a hug.
The last bit of rustling is when I said, no, I won't sit on you.
And then I said, can I have a photo?
And then he slaps his knee and I sit on his knee
and I like clasp onto him and then just like throw him the phone.
Like he has to now take the photo.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
Even listen to it back.
I mean, you can hear at the start.
I'm so nervous.
I'm talking like a million miles an hour.
I know.
You're talking so fast.
Breathing halfway through.
Words are.
Yeah. Anyway. Okay. Breathing halfway through. Yeah.
Anyway.
Okay.
It doesn't end there, people.
It doesn't end there.
I feel dizzy again.
This doesn't happen.
You come out of the room, right?
They close the door and the security guard's just there.
Yeah.
And whoever's going in next.
And I was just like,
and I like powered through them.
And the poor group that was next was like,
oh my God,
they must be trying to think, was it good? Was it bad? Yeah. And I just get through them. And the poor group that was next was like, oh, my God. Like they must be trying to think what was it good?
Was it bad?
Yeah.
And I just get into the lift like, oh, my God.
And I come down and Shannon and Carwin are there like, oh, my God.
And I think we filmed my reaction and I was coming out to meet you guys.
And I just like fell to the floor with adrenaline.
In front of an old man who was like, are you okay?
No, I'm not.
Anyway, straight after this, right, we had a little chat.
And I just said, like, what a day.
And I just left on such a high.
And I had to head straight to the theater because I was doing a double show on Saturday.
Walk, walk, walk.
And I was like, I'm too up.
I am too up.
And I was walking past a bar.
And I was like, I'm just going to go in and up. And I was walking past a bar and I was like,
I'm just going to go in and have another drink.
I just need to like go and have a Prosecco.
Yeah.
So I like turn into this bar and then my phone was like, ding.
And then it said, Jason Momoa tagged you in a story.
And I was like, what?
I've got the story here.
How many million followers does he have?
17.1.
17.2.
This was literally, I would say, like four minutes after I left the room.
All right, Hayley.
I'm doing my fast ex right now.
Hayley just left the room.
Unbelievable.
Her first interview ever.

after the
interview, we also shared that he
had tagged me in a story.
Basically, I'd given him a flyer
to my comedy show and he was like, just met
this girl and she's, what did he say? A true
talent. Is that what he said?
Is that what he said? He called you baby.
He called me baby.
I want to say like over
200 messages from women being like
He called you baby!
I was like, yeah, he did.
Anyway, so a little bit later on I was
heading to the theatre trying to absolutely calm
down and I got a
message from Jason on
Instagram DMs and he had responded to a story I'd posted
earlier that day that I just had not, obviously I didn't know it was going to go, you know,
like we were going to have such good rapport that he would be such a fan of the Sproul.
And I had posted videos earlier that morning that morning makeup free
in a pink
cuddly robe
saying like
hey a couple of tickets
left for my shows
this evening
and he had
obviously gone through
my social media
and watched
my
you know when you
follow someone
any story they post
it kind of jumps
to the front of the story
yeah
and it's me
like literally
hood up
on the pink robe
sitting with my like renovated kitchen in the back saying like you know Yeah. And it's me, like, literally hood up on the pink robe,
sitting with my, like, renovated kitchen in the back,
saying, like, you know, snap up the final tickets.
And he just messaged me saying,
I need that pink robe for Fast 10 Part 2.
Absolutely loved meeting you.
Break a leg, love.
Oh!
And then I said back, it's all yours.
Love meeting you too.
Thank you for embracing the chaotic energy
was such a pleasure
X
and then he gave it
a little heart
and now
I would just like
to clarify
that is where the DM
stopped
and I've had a lot
of people messaging me
asking if I cashed
in my pass card
and you will never
be told
nah I didn't
of course I didn't. No.
What did your fiancé
of 12 years
I can tell you what he said because I had a beer
with him at the pub last night.
I rung him and I was so excited
and he was just in general
because he came to see my show that night
in general saying what a big week, what a great day
you've done so well with everything. That's what he said. He said
I'm so proud of her.
That's huge. This big He said, I'm so proud of her. Oh.
That's huge.
This big man's going to steal my fiancée?
He doesn't seem worried at all.
He's not worried.
He's granted permission.
He was just like, I'm so proud of her.
She's had such a big week.
She's done so well.
And then he said he saw her show and he was like,
I was just sitting there in awe of my fiancée.
I was like, that's so nice.
Meanwhile, this dude is going to absolutely destroy her if he gets the chance.
Come on, man.
Do you know what was great?
On Saturday night, though, like we went out with our mutual friends,
Kasia and Jake, after the show.
We were at a bar and whatnot and Aaron had his hair up.
And then everyone kept talking about Jason Momoa and I went to the toilet,
I came back and Aaron had taken hair up and then everyone kept talking about Jason Momoa and I went to the toilet, I came back and Aaron had taken
his long curly hair down and
he was sort of like a button open
on his shirt. I think he was really trying to remind
me that I have my own
Jason Momoa already. And plus he had his own
Cassie was telling me he had his own
fangirl experience. A lady came over
and she'd spilled drink all down herself
and she really wanted a photo with Greg Grover from Nova.
So you know he's no
second tier, is he?
His options are open.
So I am a woman of morals. I will stay
loyal to my fiancé
forevermore.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Fact of the day
day, day, day,
day. day.
Today's fact of the day is about a large car heist.
Sort of along the lines of this Fast X.
Oh, yeah.
Fast 10 movie.
Fast 10, yeah, right.
You know, that's an exciting, high-speed, high-adrenaline.
The driving stuff is incredible in the film.
It's just like the most mental stuff.
Does Ludacris go to space again?
No, Ludacris stays on Earth this time.
I was hoping he'd go to Mars.
And a car.
Does this heist involve one of those car trucks?
Because I've always wanted to drive up the ramp on one of those.
You know when you see, you drive past them, you're like,
I want to drive up there.
I just want to stop at the lights and just go blimp.
How fast would I have to be going to get over the cab of the truck?
No, you're not going to go all the way.
No, you're not going to go that.
You're not driving onto it for a free ride.
I wouldn't want to reverse off of it, though.
I'd just drive on.
Well, then you've got to reverse onto it if you don't want to reverse off of it.
Well, I don't want to reverse at all.
There's got to be a reverse at some stage.
It's like when you're getting on the Interisland Ferry
and they're like, okay, you're reversing on.
It's like, no one else reversed.
Why would I reverse on?
With a trailer and everybody's watching.
Yeah, and everyone's watching.
They get to laugh.
Yeah.
No, this involves a car ferry.
Ooh, okay.
One of those big car unloading boats that you see.
Oh, yes, yeah.
Oh, yes.
In the 1970s
This car heist involved 1000 Volvos
From Sweden
Very safe cars
From Sweden
Did they just win Eurovision?
Sweden, yes
Yes they did, quite a good song actually
Yeah
Yeah, powerful
Meatballs
I love the meatballs.
Yum, yum, yum.
It's a meatball recipe.
Yeah, yeah.
A song to a ditty tune.
One cup cream, if you translate.
Yeah, yeah.
And I've got Ancestry.com Swedish blood, so don't come at me.
No, same.
I'm allowed to make that joke. So we're allowed to make that joke. How much Swedish I've got Ancestry.com Swedish blood, so don't come at me. No, same, actually. I'm allowed to make that joke.
I'm going to check how much Swedish I've got in me.
Yeah, I guess what to claim the Eurovision victory.
Fantastic.
I think I'm the same as you.
Well, actually, check it, because we should be angry about this,
because our people have been ripped off by North Korea.
Oh, my goodness.
North Korea ordered 1,000 Volvo 144s.
Okay.
This was a boxy little sedan, and North Korea were like,
yeah, we'll buy some of those.
I won't do the accent of a North Korean because if you check myancestry.com,
not a slice.
Okay, so I've got Sweden and Denmark 6%.
You're allowed to do the accent.
I'm allowed to do the accent. I'm allowed to do the accent.
I don't know if that's how it works, but okay.
Oh, I have to apologise.
What?
I've lost my Swedish.
Have you?
In an update, you've lost your Swedish.
Are you still 1% Hawaiian?
I am indeed.
Would you like to do a Hawaiian accent?
You didn't even say that to Jason Momoa, did you?
I'm 1% Hawaiian.
No, it didn't come out.
We just let the conversation flow.
It was natural. He would have said something like, do you want some more Hawaiian in you? And I'm 1% Hawaiian. No, it didn't come out. We just let the conversation flow. It was natural.
He would have said something like,
do you want some more Hawaiian than you?
And I would have said,
yes, please.
You know,
that old bloody chestnut.
Okay.
So I'm just logging on
to see my latest book
because maybe I've been inappropriate.
No, boy, oh boy,
I am stocked with Swedish.
You're so white, aren't you?
You see, I'm Norwegian.
I'm now 9%.
Holy!
How do you keep getting more?
You're like sexy,
big tall sexy boy.
Are you any Norwegian?
I'm 4% Norwegian.
No, which is weird because I've got a document
that shows Hans Christofferson leaving.
But he might not have had Norwegian blood.
He might not have been Norwegian though.
He might have just moved to Norway.
Gotcha.
I like that you've got documentation of your colonisation.
We've got so much proof.
Both sides of my family.
Terrible.
Very naughty.
Terrible people.
My family came here very late.
Carry on.
But then thankfully we had a couple of ancestors that liked the booze more than they liked the work and they lost it all.
Oh, okay.
Right.
Giving it back.
Putting it back into circulation.
What are we talking about?
Let's concentrate on the car heist.
The car heist.
So Sweden was excited to get Volvo into some new markets.
North Korea was opening up.
And in the 70s, a very strong economy.
So they're like, North Korea, again, check theancestry.com,
zero Korean.
I won't do an accent.
But the Swedish were like,
So the North Koreans order 1,000 Volvos.
Okay.
Sweden sends them off. Yeah. Attached with, I'm imagining Koreans order 1,000 Volvos. Okay. Sweden sends them off.
Yeah.
Attached with, I'm imagining stuck to one of the Volvos
in a very hard to open plastic thing, very tightly stuck.
They pull open.
There was the invoice.
Right.
And North Korea's like, not paying that.
Oh.
And never have.
Really?
North Korea effectively stole 1,000 Volvos from Sweden.
Why did they do that?
In the 1970s and just never paid for them. You can't just not pay the 1970s and just never paid for them.
You can't just not pay for things.
They just never paid for them.
They should have paid before they were shipped.
49 years later we are now, and Sweden is still like,
yeah, North Korea owe us for 1,000.
With interest.
Yeah, well, that's what they're saying.
We haven't worked out the exact interest accrued,
but we totally could if we could get our accountants on.
I mean, I was going to say you could put some sanctions in place,
but there already are quite a lot.
There's so many sanctions.
Yeah, so many.
So many sanctions.
So today, and what are North Korea trading at the moment?
Old Volvos?
Yeah.
So today's fact of the day is that the largest known car heist in history
was when North Korea ordered 1,000 Volvos from Sweden
and they just never paid for them.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Sorry, are you yours?
You're yours.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM. I have been sleeping like a log this week
Turns out when you do more with your day
Yeah
You sort of earn the sleep and your body actually requires it
Yeah, it's like I'm knackered
Yeah, even with these early starts
If I go home today, even having gotten up at four,
if I go home today and don't do much else for the rest of the day,
I'll struggle to get to sleep.
Whereas if you're busy, you're moving, your body's just like...
Yeah.
Well, apparently our jobs are ruining our sleep.
I mean, yes, ours definitely are.
Because of the early starts.
Yeah, the job stress is basically killing our sleep.
It's stuffing with all of our cortisol levels.
It's ruining our health and well-being.
And then we're getting worse at work.
And the worse we are at work, the more stressed we are at work,
the less we're going to sleep, the worse we get at work.
The worse we get at work, the more stressed we are at work,
the less we'll sleep and the worse we'll be at work.
And it's hard because a lot of people have their work emails on their phones.
Yeah.
And so you might be getting ready for bed and an email comes through
and the stress starts again.
Yeah, or there's a lot of because of high levels of stress in the workplace,
a lot of people are feeling daytime tiredness
and they may try to catch a Z.
And then if you catch a Z in the afternoon, it does impact
your evening sleep.
So the work environments,
I mean, how do you fix it?
We've got to make money.
Well, just,
Morn's got a tip.
You just don't reply to emails
or look at them, do you?
I still,
I haven't been listening
this break.
What are you thinking about?
I've decided my new...
Are you thinking about me and Jason?
No, no, no.
My new work mantra is I start winding
down. As soon as factor the day is done, you'll
notice I just drop it again. You just drop it again?
Put it up again. Why put it in neutral? You're coasting.
I'm coasting, baby. Yeah, you're coasting
down the hill. I'm coasting from 8.30. It's alright. Factor day, build
up a lot of speed. You imagine
that's the crest of the hill. Now we're going down.
I'm just in neutral. I'm cruising. I'm saving gas.
I don't want to burn out. To relate that to
a 9 to five worker.
Knock it off about two.
Coast from two to five.
Two to five.
Leave work early.
Include transport to and from work within your work hours.
I don't think that's allowed.
And just cruise, man. It's not a thing.
That's not a thing.
I think it's okay because I'm awake now.
See, I struggle from six to seven.
Well, you've got a sort of psychotic energy at that point.
Fletch, you are just high energy and lovely the whole time.
So that's sort of a good base place for us to,
for us, Vaughan, to pop in and out of.
Yeah, that sounds right.
Again, I missed that.
I will be honest, I wasn't listening.
I was looking up the song from 2001,
Sliding Doors soundtrack,
Huey Lewis and Gwyneth Paltrow singing Cruisin'.
Oh, God, no, Dan.
That's a terrible song.
Come on, give Daddy what he wants.
Give Daddy a little.
Give Daddy a little.
Give Daddy a little.
We're not listening to that terrible song.
Ah.
Play.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Yummy, yummy, yummy
In my tummy It's so rich and good Well, they've hit the shelves.
They've hit the shelves.
And I have not.
I've seen them in the supermarket over the last week.
And I've been like, no.
I'm eating well.
I'm going to the gym.
I'm not.
Looking good.
I'm resisting.
I'm resisting.
But you can't resist much longer because.
Because you're in at work here
Yeah man
Producer Channel
That pyjamas brought you a bag
Oh I sniffed them
And I was like
No they smell like white chocolate
I'm not a white chocolate fan
You're not a white
Unless it's lindertit
Long time listeners
To the show will know
That I used to love
White Maltesers
Yeah
Love them
And they stopped making them
And I was devo
And their reasoning
Was always like
Oh they don't sell But everybody talked about them Yeah And they stopped making them when I was Devo. And their reasoning was always like, oh, they don't sell,
but everybody talked about them.
Yeah.
And they were a pain to make.
You could get them in the UK after they stopped making them in New Zealand
for a while, and that was kind of cool.
But these aren't white chocolate, are they?
No, these are gold Maltesers.
Like a caramilk.
So like a caramilk.
So whatever the, who makes these?
Mars, Nestle.
So it'll be the, that's a good, it's a good gold.
The Milky Bar Gold is yum.
I'm going to put one in my gob straight away.
Okay, let's try them.
Oh, I don't know if I can with my teeth.
Would it just go on the other side?
But then it always sneaks around to the other side and gets me.
It'll go in the gap.
Well, I'm not having one.
I better have two.
Oh, my God.
Those are so good.
Give me another one.
I need another one.
This has got you written all over it.
Imagine this.
Easily smash a bag of those.
Making a white, white espresso martini.
White chocolate espresso martini.
And putting these on top.
You know that we're having a cocktail.
We're having cocktails on Friday.
Okay, yeah, they're good.
Big cheesecake bite.
You could smash them up and make a cheesecake out of them.
Yeah, because a lot of Malteser recipes,
that'd be great for that.
One serving size is 11 pieces.
I mean, we've only...
I've had one.
Yeah, you can have 10 more.
Yeah, but then what?
I don't know if...
Okay.
Yeah, you can't have one eleventh of a serving.
Those are so good.
Those are good.
You've got to have a whole serving.
You've got to have ten more.
Or have all ten at once and store them in your cheek
and then just slowly melt them like a squirrel.
Just deposit them during the day.
Like a squirrel.
Yeah.
Okay, well.
Well, yummy, yummy, Maltese of Gold.
They're out and I'm ten out of ten.
We'll trade again.
Non-spawn, by the way.
Yeah, non-spawn.
Yum, yum, yum.
I mean, if they need an ambassador.
If they want a spawn.
And you want to send me boxes of them.
Who does?
Absolutely.
Own the Malteser's brand.
Oh, yeah, they're struggling.
They probably couldn't afford a spawn con.
Are they struggling?
I don't know if they are.
I mean, one of the largest companies in the world, but.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Struggling to get one.
See ya, see ya later.
Actually,
I'm going to have to
stop you there.
That's copyrighted.
Suzy Cato's 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.
