The ZM Podcast Network. The Fleshvaughan and Hayley Big Pod. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Thank you Bryn. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fleshvaughan and Hayley.

We're minus a Hayley today. I told her not to come in. Yeah. She was like, I'll come in. I was like, don't come in. No, just rest up. This is what sick days are for. She's got a comedy show in New Plymouth at the weekend.

Yeah, save it for the people of New Plymouth. Save it for them. They need what sick days are for. She's got a comedy show in New Plymouth at the weekend. Yeah, save it for the people of New Plymouth. Save it for them. They need something to look forward to because they live in New Plymouth and that's got to be tough.

It's my hometown. I won't have you saying bad things about it. Mum's message saying she's got big boxes of limes. Oh, from her lime tree? Yeah. Two boxes?

I'm like, what am I doing with two boxes? Bring them back up. I'll bring them back. I'll have some limes. Do your pigs eat them? If there's too many? Oh, yeah, great.

The cows eat them. Fantastic. Everybody loves a lime. Okay, well, this is great. And then I've got them for gin and tonics as well, so everybody wins. Fantastic. Fantastic news. Now, we've got a big show today.

We're going to send somebody to New York to see Sabrina Carpenter. Yes, we are. Which is pretty exciting. We've got the last chance to get in that draw. Is it me? It's not Vaughan. No, it's not. But we've got your last chance coming up on the show before 7 to go in that draw.

But don't panic because we have five of these trips to give away. So after this one, there's still four. There's still four. Yep. And then the next one will be LA. We'll be sending someone to Hollywood and LA. Where is the LA concert that we're sending them to? Is it Hollywood Bowl or is it Staples Center?

I don't know. You're asking me. So many great concerts. So many, yes, so many great. There are. So big show. Not only are we sending somebody to New York to see Sabrina Carpenter, but a lot of guests on the show today.

We've got an Olympic gold medal in studio after seven this morning. Finn Butcher. Yes. Who won gold? I hope he brings the medal. Same. What if he doesn't bring the medal? Because then we can get a picture and pretend we won a medal. Yeah. Are you allowed to do that with Olympians? Whose medal did we touch last time?

Oh, I've touched Sophie Pascoe's medals. That's medals. That's right. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. I don't think I touched any Tokyo Olympics medals. Well, this will be exciting. They were cool-looking medals, those Paris Games medals.

Yeah, they were. Finn Butcher is in after seven. Cassie Henderson has a brand-new song out. We're going to play that and have her in at 7.30 this morning. And some All Blacks as well. Yeah. Because why not? I believe we've got Geordie Barrett and Dalton Papalipian.

Is that how you say his last name? Papalipi. Yeah. Yep. Fantastic. Can I chuck a couple of Warriors in the mix? We've had a bloody full show. We've given up on them this season. R.O.P. Next year. Next year will be their year.

Next season is our season. The top six on the way. Yes, it is. A sample of the new school lunches. Reduced cost school lunches has been released. You're not going to get a mouthpiece for the left here. You're just going to get a straight shooter. You're going to get a straight shooter.

I'm telling it how it is. Big fan of David Seymour over here. Huge Seymour guy. I've got the top six things that will be included in the new school lunches. Right. We've all left an event, a concert, and trying to get an Uber and experience surge pricing. Little tip, walk down the road. Walk down the road if you can.

Walk down the road. Yeah. And then it doesn't think you're at the concert. Yeah. Or the venue. I've done that before. But supermarkets are looking at this exact thing. And there's one supermarket in America that is being investigated for surge pricing with

those electronic tags. I want to talk about this next. Sit in. Before 7 this morning, so keep listening for that mother trucker. The largest supermarket chain in America is under investigation. A couple of U.S. senators have announced that they're looking into the supermarket with price surging, like Uber does. Oh. You know, you finish an event or you're in the city, it's busy after a game.

Uber's three times or two times or 1.5 times. So the supermarket would say, oh, it's ten past five. People have left work. Yep. They all want getting after work, dinner stuff. They all want oven fries. Pop up the price up. Pop up the price.

That's some cheeky shit. That's capitalism, baby. Yeah, it is. They've Bop up the price. That's some cheeky shit. That's capitalism, baby. Yeah, it is. They've been rolling out the electronic price tags, which a lot of New Zealand supermarkets have been using for, like, a lot. Like, I remember the first time I saw them in, was it the Thorndon New World? Yeah, that was the first place I ever saw them. Yeah, because I remember it was, like, a big news story,

and everyone was just like, whoa. And you can imagine why stores do this, because every week, like, staff would have you can imagine why stores do this because every week staff would have to be swapping out paper price tags, right? Yes. So if it's all just done in Wi-Fi and it just updates automatically, it's quite great, you'd imagine. Saves some time.

Saves some money. But yeah, apparently they're investigating the supermarket because they're worried that they're price surging. And the supermarket's like, no, no, we just want to keep, trust us, we just want to keep prices low. Ah, it's trust. Yeah, I don't know.

They're asking us to trust them. But then do you remember, I think it was Wendy's in America last year or early this year said that they were going to do like that for their drive-through at like after work times. And then there was just this massive uproar and they backtracked. Why don't you tell people the price is going up? You just put it up. You just put it up.

You wait until another big news event happens and then you pop up your price. Petrol stations looking at you. And you hope it just gets lost in the general chaos of everything costing a fortune nowadays. God, the way you speak, you should work for like a big corporate and media comms. You think I've got what it takes? I think you've got what it takes to work in PR marketing. Absolutely. If I was

going to do, if I worked for a company that had any bad news, I'd wait till some big bad news happened and then just sneak in no bad news. Yeah, just press release. Obligated to publicly release. Yeah. Just waiting for some kind of earthquake or eruption or civil unrest or... Anything. Or maybe even celebrity death.

Yes. Or maybe even create a diversion. Okay. Yeah. And then release the news that I'm... Again, I will say publicly required to release by law. Yep. It was a great plan.

11 past six. I'm a great guy. Trust me. Next on the show... Oh, my God. This is sad. I saw someone who died. I was like, she past six. I'm a great guy. Trust me. Next on the show. Oh, my God, this is sad. I saw someone who died. I was like, she looks familiar. She did look familiar.

She was in one of the saddest movies of all time, but one of the most romantic movies of all time. But it really got me when I watched it, and I will never watch it again. It's not Marley and me. That dog is dead. 100%. For sure.

ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Fletch Vaughan and Hayley Fletch Vaughan and Hayley the show thanks to McCafe great things brewing on the go it's 14 past 6 I've got the hiccups I just went to get some water sad news

oh well I mean she was 94 years old so that to me is more of a that's a long life yeah I'm not going to be too sad about it's too long

I'll be honest it's too long that's a long time I'll run out of Kiwi Savour by then oh I'm going to be too sad about it. It's too long. I'll be honest, it's too long. It's a long time. I'll run out of KiwiSaver by then. Oh, I'm blowing that. That'd be 1065. At the casino? Yep.

Okay. Why not? Gina Rowlands has passed away. She was the older version of Rachel McAdams in The Notebook, as well as heaps of other things. I wasn't quite aware of the impact she'd had, I will admit, on Hollywood until she passed away. I saw a lot of people when I woke up this morning, a lot of celebrities sharing it on Instagram stories.

Right. Because the name doesn't ring a bell. No. Even her photo. I was like, I don't know who that is. It's the lady from the notebook. In 2021, the New Yorker said she was the most important and original movie actor of the past half century. Oh, wow.

Yeah. She was just revolutionized past half century. Oh, wow. Yeah. She was just revolutionized woman's roles. Oh, wow. In movies and TV. She did both. And she was 94 years old. And it turns out her son was the director of The Notebook. A nepo baby.

A nepo baby. So she broke all these glass ceilings and norms. Yeah. And then he's like, ma'am, ma'am, can I have a chip? Ma'am, ma'am, movie ma'am. No, he's done other things as well. Right. Probably got a foot in, but has had to work for it since. But yeah, she died in 94. And the

sad thing is, if you've watched The Notebook, her character has Alzheimer's. She character has Alzheimer's. She also had Alzheimer's. She passed away from Alzheimer's complications. Life, imitating art. But did her

husband pass away? No, he died in 1989. Oh, right. So she's been living without him for quite some time. She did remarry in 2012. Right. But no word of Robert Forrest is, because I can't click on him. He's not a hyperlink. Right.

Doesn't have a Wikipedia. No. And that movie just. He's alive. And this will make you feel odd because that movie was 20 years old. 20 years old. When? Recently.

I remember seeing. 2004 that movie came out. Been a lot of those lately. This movie, this song, this is 20 years old. And you're like, how? What did I see? There was to be a movie celebration of a movie's 30th anniversary release. And I was like, simply not possible.

Just not possible. I shan't believe that that is at all possible, that that movie is 30 years old. Silly Little Pole is next on the show. Do you like e-scooters? Use them every day. Yeah, you're a big fan. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly Little Poll. Silly Little Poll. Silly Little Poll. Silly Little Poll. Silly Little Poll.

Silly Little Poll today is do you like public e-scooters? Your Limes, your Beams, your... What else is there? So, um... Oh, there's Neurons in some cities. There's Flamingo. Are they still around? Oh, yeah, aren't they the pink ones?

Because Auckland made only two companies. Right. There used to be like four or so. Lime and beam. So Melbourne, like, shocked everybody, and they just said no more e-scooters in the city because, you know, Melbourne's quite compact. They've got, like, lots of little laneways.

Lanes and alleys and stuff. And so many people, their footpaths in the city are packed. And I remember even being over there a year ago and learning that they've got huge fines. Like, if you just rip down the street, they can fine you, like, $400. Oh, really? Yeah, it's, like, insane. And they've got pretty decent public transport, the trans and stuff. Yeah, it's so easy to run the trans and the trains.

So they were like, no more e-scooters. And they reckon that other states might follow suit in Aussie. Right. Because people are just sick of them. Like, even in Auckland and big cities, they're all over the footpath. But I use them every day. I love them. Yeah.

Like, if they banned them, I'd probably just buy one. To get around on. To get around, yeah. So do you like public e-scooters? 40% of people said yes. 60% said no. The majority says no. That's interesting, isn't it?

But then do you think if people lived in the city, they'd embrace them more? Yes. Yeah. Because where you are in the city, like here from work, if we're going down to the Queen Street or down to your place, the scooter's the best way. Yeah.

Or it's better than getting an Uber. 100%. Yeah. 100%. Dan says, yes, I'm a lazy MF who lives in Darwin. Do I need a scooter or a five-minute walk away? Yes. Spend as little time as possible outside of air conditioning.

Oh, yeah, that's true. He wants to get back into that cool. Why are people so miserable? And crocodiles. And crocodiles, yeah, they can't catch you on them. But they can't catch e-scooters. E-scooters, too fast. Michelle said, why are people so miserable?

What's wrong with them? I voted when it was 60% against. Don't like them? Don't use them. Otherwise, mind your business. Plus, I never go on them. I just enjoy seeing people having fun. So she doesn't even use them, but she likes them because she likes seeing people have fun.

They are a fun way. Some people are a-holes, though, like ripping around on the footpaths. Like, you've got to. Yeah. Oh, there's a respectful thing, but we're humans. We don't respect each other. No. We pretend we do.

We scooted from Wellington City back out to the airport to pick up a rental car once. That was a fun Oriental... How much did that cost? $25? Each? Each! So, yeah, $75 collectively. We totally could have gone, but we were last.

It was fun. It was adventures. It was all for the adventures. Okay. Chanel says, there's nothing better than an e-scooter pub crawl. Well, ACC would disagree over it. And maybe the police would say as well. The police would also disagree.

Yeah. Yes, and from a small rural town, so going to the city and using a scooter is something really new and exciting for us country bumpkins. It is actually pretty funny every time you see tourists are like out of town and using a scooter is something really new and exciting for us country bumpkins, says Emma. It is actually pretty funny every time you see tourists are like, out of town and using the scooters in the big city. And they're downloading the app because they don't have it. And it's so funny.

Sorry, Fletch. Too many douchebags causing accidents, says Cass. A friend of mine was seriously injured after they were hit by one. Yeah, but cars, bikes, motorbikes, heavy machinery, everything'sikes, heavy machinery. Yeah. Everything's out to get you.

But that's what I mean. You've just got to be respectful and mindful. Take it easy. Yeah, you can't just fang down the footpath. You've got to... People are walking there. There's always dickheads. Ruin it for everybody else. Not since I dislocated my knee on one have I found them enjoyable at all, says Rhiannon.

Okay. Ruben, as a hospital dentist, they're my arch nemesis. Oh, Ruben. Yeah, but that's work, isn't it? Yeah, but there's probably other work that he's done. Yeah, that's true. He's like, oh, I've got to take a handlebar out of some molars again. Yeah, goodness me.

That brake cable was really wedged right in there. Always makes me have a wee giggle seeing middle-aged men in business attire with their backpacks on heading towards the CBD, says Amber. Okay, that's funny yes. Also funny. Jessica says bloody teenagers always zoom up behind me and my dog scaring the shit out of her and I don't think they don't think about their surroundings. God damn it I sound

old. I'm only 30 I promise but my god the audacity of these young people. Also one of my family members has had multiple injuries because of them. They need breathalysers. So again the booze may have been involved. Yeah you shouldn't be getting us for something, I wouldn't be tanked. Yeah. No, yeah.

You'll be safe on those things. Yep. Play Zed-N's Fletch, Fawn and Hayley. 629. Coming up on the show, the last chance for you to get in today's draw to see Sabrina Carpenter live in New York. But don't worry if you miss out on that because

LA is the next trip we have to give away. Doing this, we've got five of these all up. So listen out for that mother truck. It'll be the first through on 0800 dial ZM. ZM, what are you hearing? The LA concerts at Crypto.com Stadium. Which used to be Staples. The Staples Centre.

Which I didn't know. Lots of money in crypto, Vaughn, don't know if you know. Apparently. A lot of money in crypto. Apparently. Next on the show, one of the biggest collectibles for older Gen Z and millennials, like one of the biggest school kind of crazes,

has become quite an expensive collectible. Okay. Which we need to discuss next. It's not marbles, Vaughn. Well, no, that would be Gen X. Late boomer Gen X collectible would be

marbles, I would think. Yep. Is it bogs? No, it's not. It's not our collectible cards. Not Tazos?

No, it's not those. Not Ninja Turtle cards? Tazos. Tazos. Do you remember Tazos? Yes. Yeah, dude. I'd kill for some Tazos. Those chips that came, the Tazos came No, it's not those. Not Ninja Turtle cards? Tazos. Tazos. Do you remember Tazos? Yes. Yeah, dude. I'd kill for some Tazos.

Those chips that came, the Tazos came in the chips. Those chips were good. Good chips. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. ZM sending you to Sabrina Carpenter live in the USA. Good morning, Ash. Good morning. You're the last person in the draw.

Oh, my goodness. For New York. I'm so excited. Okay, so we're going to do this draw later on the show. And if you win, we'll be sending you and a friend to New York to see her live. Return flights for two. All thanks to United Airlines flying nonstop from Auckland and Christchurch to the U.S. with connections to more than 200 destinations

across the Americas. Make sure your phone is on. You've got to answer with please, please, please if we call you back this morning. Oh, please, please, please let me win. Please, please, please. Well, good luck. The concert as well, as you mentioned,

used to be called the Staples Centre. Yeah. Now Crypto.com Arena, Stadium? Yeah. Whatever it's called. That's next week's. Yeah, that's next week in LA. Sorry, yeah.

So this one in New York. I mean, we've got five of these. Inside the Empire State Building. It's not inside the Empire State Building. They're putting the Statue of Liberty inside the Empire State Building and she'll perform in that. Keep listening.

More chances to win today. Yeah. Just all the time, chances to win. Producer Shannon, Hayley's away today. Yes. Did you see how she just came in and sat in Hayley's seat? Very presumptuous. This is quite like she's not even dead.

Well, no, Carwen's on the phones out there, and I've snuck in here because there's a new trend. Now, this is... It's a new old trend, though. Yes, yes, yes. This is something that older Gen Zs and millennial girlies would have collected. Yeah, Carmel and I are outside freaking out

because we were obsessed with Scoobies when we were at school. So they're these little long plastic kind of strands, and you would braid them and make what's called a Scooby, and you would trade them. There was like a real hierarchy of skills what would you make them out of because i'm looking at a plastic tube almost imagine a pipe cleaner that's not fuzzy oh it looks like a sherbet straw yeah but thinner and there was like

a real hierarchy because starting them were really hard so like if you knew how to start them it was quite a big deal okay um but yeah nowiu Miu, one of these designer brands, has bought back the Scooby for $700. What? Yeah. Do you still have these, like, anywhere at your parents' house or something? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would never throw them out.

They were a prized possession. So they have no practical purpose whatsoever. This is just a deck. The Miu Miu, Mui Mui mewy mewy meow meow mung mung one that I'm looking at here that's $700 as leather and it just as a

decorative keychain. Yeah and it's funny because when I did these I was maybe eight years old and I didn't own keys so we just kind of had them

you'd maybe chuck them on your school bag but now it looks like it's more of a keychain accessory. Right. Okay.

But $700 is so dumb. Just go to Bali. Yeah. There's heaps of this crap at the market. Any market in anywhere in the world, there's plaited crap like this. There's no way that $700 worth of leather. No. It does make me want to get back into making them, though.

Maybe this is my new side hustle. Well, there's a dollar to be made now if you get some cheap leather. $700. A dollar to be made? Just a dollar? There's a cost of living crisis. I don't know if you guys are aware. Cost of living crisis. The world's tumbling down around us.

But no, $700 for a piece of leather. Perfect. Welcome your day with McCafe. Great things are brewing. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. 17 minutes away from 7. Next week on the show we've got two weeks worth of HelloFresh and $500 cash every day to give away.

Now, if you want to be in to win, you want us to call you back, you've just got to register. Do it now or do it over the weekend. Your relatable girl dinner scenario, you do that at ZM Online and we could be calling you back next week. And, you know, who doesn't want two weeks worth of HelloFresh and $500 cash? That would just be absolutely handy right now. Well, speaking of meals, the sample menu of meals and schools has been released.

I haven't done my line. Oh, you haven't done your finishing line? I have to do my finishing line. Oh, you do your finishing line. I just saw the opportunity. You talk about meals. A finishing line. I have to do my finishing line. Oh, you do your finishing line. I just saw the opportunity. You talk about meals a seamless segue. I know.

I am going to interrupt a seamless segue before I say with a range of quick, customisable recipes, HelloFresh makes delicious midweek dinners easy as.

Now I'll go. You can go now. I just want to give it the room that it deserves. You can go now. Thank you for giving me room. Well, the government has announced some sample sort of menus

of what lunch in schools is going to look like. There was a budget cut to this program, and Associate Education Minister David Simmer, of course, has children, so knows exactly what they want to eat, announced the government's intention for a more efficient lunch. They'll receive nutritious food that they actually want to eat. Like chips. Forget quinoa and couscous and hummus,

although I'm sure no school lunch has ever had that in it. He said, it'll be more like this, dot, dot, dot. I'll tell you what the dot, dot, dot is. And then the top six is the top six things that kids would actually eat at school for school lunches. Yeah. Joining us in studio soon, we've got a gold medal. A gold medal coming in.

Finn Butcher, Olympian, is back in the country. Yep. I think a lot of them are. I think, yeah, they've all touched down, haven't they? How good is it when they've tagged on a European vacay? Oh, yeah. I'm always like, tip of the hat to you. You've probably got free flights over there. You may as well make the most of it.

Some athletes got, you know, got the competition out of the way in three days and then were just like, alright. I'll go to Europe. I'll go to, okay, I'll do a sail cry. That's Europe. Yeah. Also joining us around 7.30, Cassie Henderson got a brand new song out today. She's in Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. This is

the Top Six. Well, school and lunches was called woke and inefficient and sushi was used as an example of woke food. So what was on the menu? Woke food. Yeah.

I know, woke food. You know sushi. It's always trying to convince you Woke food. Yeah. After that, I know, woke food, you know, sushi. It's always trying to convince you to become communist. Yeah. And be nice to people. Yeah. That's what it says. It doesn't want you using, like, you know, what could be interpreted as hate speech online,

but it's woke sushi. David Semel said, forget quinoa, couscous and hummus. It'll be more stuff like sandwiches and fruit. Well, it's been rolled out and I can tell you there's butter chicken. What? Woke butter chicken. Mexican rice and bean burrito.

Teriyaki chicken. This all sounds pretty woke to me. Yeah. Thai chicken curry. No kid's gonna eat that. No kid's eating a Thai. I mean, I will though. A hidden vegetable butter chicken, which I then found the recipe for. Three kgs of sliced onion.

There goes half the kids. They won't eat onion. One cup of crushed garlic. Too spicy now, isn't it? One cup of crushed ginger. Well, now you've just doubled down on this one. Kids consider it to be spicy. They don't want to eat that. Three kgs of tomato paste. Two kgs of tomato paste. Two kgs of butter chicken curry paste.

Some tomato paste and tomato puree. 20 kgs of pumpkin roasted and pureed. They'll smell that a mile off. They're not touching it. Three litres of cream. 500 grams of sugar, optional. So don't. 30 kilograms of diced chicken.

Mild curry powder. You've just described, I think, my children's worst nightmare. I've got the top six things that should be on the menu if you want your kids to eat these lunches in schools.

Okay. Number six on the list, the high end. Now, I'm telling you, you put this in front of any child, they're going to give you chef's kiss,

five stars on your parental Yelp. They'll be back again playing pasta. Wait, with cheese or just pasta? Just plain pasta. Really?

August last night said, I'll cook my own dinner. She literally boiled pasta and strained it and was just like, bon appetit. I was like, that is so gross. Meanwhile, Indy's eating a baked potato and mac and cheese. I'm like, it's all carbohydrates. Yeah, a lot of carbs there. It's all carbohydrates. Yeah. A lot of carbs there. It's all carbohydrates. That metabolism's going to come to a screeching halt if you've got my genes in you.

You better hope your mother's carrying you. Number five on the list of the top six things to put on the menu if they actually want kids to eat lunches in schools. Nuggies. Oh, yeah, just nuggies. Just nuggies. Children will eat nuggies without dipping sauce, like some sort of monsters.

Monsters? Monsters. Really? Yeah. Monsters. I'm always so sad when I get to the end of my nuggets and I've got like just a tiny residual of sauce. Oh, yeah, and you've still got a full nugget?

Yeah. You've got to work out your sauce nugget ratio. Yeah, that was on me for going too much sauce too early. It's like the child version of a cheese to cracker ratio on a charcuterie. You know, you've really got to be thinking about that from the outset. It was like when you ran out of cheese in a little snack on your last half of cracker. No. That's devo.

That's a tragedy. Number four on the list of the top six things to put on the menu if you want your kids to actually eat the lunches at schools. Chips. Yeah. Just chips. Just have what they have in American schools and British schools. Isn't it all just like pizza and chips and stuff?

It's better than nothing, right? They'll eat it. They are not going to eat your Thai chicken curry. I know. I know, for us, yeah. Savory mince with roasted seasonal veggies. Maybe. Because it's mince and kids love mints.

Yeah, kids love mints. I don't think they're going to eat the Mexican rice and bean burrito because it's got beans in it. And don't be giving me a burrito loaded up with rice and beans and skimping on the chicken that I've asked for it. Yeah. You know? Hold the beans.

Hold the rice. Get them out of there. Number three on the list of the top six things to put on the school lunches menu if you want the kids to actually eat it. Nuggies and plain pasta with a side of tomato sauce. Oh yeah, so they can dip and some chippies. Yeah, great.

That's a three. We call that a three for number two on the list of the top six things to put on the menu if you want your kids to actually eat it. Plain white bread with butter on it cut into triangles. Not squeezed. Wait, but no topping. Nothing. Oh, okay, just butter. Okay. They don't want anything in it.

They just want white bread with butter on it. Furry sprinkles? Hundreds of thousands? Oh, no, you can't have them hyped up on furry sprinkles for the afternoon. They'll be crazy. Their learning will be impossible. And number one on the list of the top six things to put on the menu if you want your kids to actually eat at the school lunches,

thank you to the person that text messaged in, boogers better be on the list because it is. Yeah, boogers? It is. Boogers is on the list. Someone also said, this is a complete load of BS, that new food list

is exactly what they are getting right now for school lunches. Oh. So how are they going to save money if it's exactly the same thing? Also, if these kids don't want like butter chicken and Thai, can they just like

hand them out to adults? Yeah. We should be able to just go with it. Let's just have a collection point if the kids don't need it. Yeah, that'd be great. That'd be great. Waste not, want not. Yeah.

We're all about cutting down on waste in this government. That's today's top six. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Thanks, Bryn. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Four minutes past seven. Big show today.

Got the All Blacks in on the show after 8.30 this morning. Cassie Henderson is in soon at 7.30. Yep. And we've got Olympian Finn Butcher in his gold medal in studio in like 10, 15 minutes. He's just been on the tally. Also, overnight, the Australian breakdancer, Ray Gunn, has given a statement. Her first public statement. Oh, I haven't heard the statement.

We'll play it for you. She's basically like, let's just stop this, guys. Can we all just take a break and leave me alone? Has there been anybody that has become this famous in a week? No. She's already ready to crescendo her fame. We didn't... It was last Saturday morning.

Yeah, that happened. That the world was introduced to Ray Gunn. Insane. And here we are on Friday morning. Still talking about it. Still talking about it. Next on the show, though,

final rankings. Hayley's still away with the sore throat. Yeah. Lozenges. Lozenges. We're going to rank our favourite lozenges.

Flavours. Flavours. Flavours of lozenges. Not brands. Yeah. Lozenges. Lozenges. We're going to rank our favourite lozenges. Flavours. Flavours. Flavours of lozenges. Not brands. Yeah. Because I'm not really a streeper sales guy. I don't really do lozenges

apart from the Manuka ones. I love a lozenge. You love a lozenge. Love. You love a throat spray and a lozenge combo. Love a numbing spray. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

It's the final rankings. Today's final rankings. We decided this a couple of days ago. We are going to rank our favourite lozenge flavours. Because Hayley off today with the scratchy throat. Yeah. She was sounding a lot better yesterday. And I think she'll be absolutely fine for a new Plymouth comedy show, Wild Flood is tomorrow.

She better be because we're all going down on a roadie today. She messaged me last night and I said, just take tomorrow off as well. Yeah. She needs that sort of, she needs to be told. She's got this weird, I don't know exactly how to pronounce it. I think it's a French word. Work-a-thique?

Work-a-thique, yeah. Work-a-thique, yeah. Work-a-thique? Where she just constantly wants to be at work. She wants to work. Yeah. I can't comprehend it. Foreign to you.

Foreign to you. Foreign to you. Foreign? Probably because it's French. Different bloody language, mate. Yes, French. She has sent a message where I believe includes her votes. Okay, four final rankings. Hi, Fletch and Vaughn.

Putting it on. It's Hayley. Acting. I know the show must be suffering greatly without me. So much so. And, you know, you're really lacking in a female presence. But rest assured, I will be back next week. And I would just like to submit,

probably the most informed person at the moment, my vote for lozenge flavours. Lozenge. Orange can get in the trash. Lemon honey, number one. Menthol, number two. That's it. All the rest of it's crap.

Okay, miss you, love you. Say you love me back. Bye. Butter menthol. Butter, ooh, no. So that's kind of like a Werther's but menthol-y. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It rules.

Number one's got to be Manuka honey. Like a honey lemon honey. Like a honey lemon. It's the best. It's the best. Second is this butter menthol-y dude I found once. And third, it's going to come from left field. I was thinking about orange, but I want to put in blue.

Blue? Blue. Or like a Vicks or something. Like a strepsil. The blue ones are always like strep salts. And you breathe in, well, you've got them in your mouth, and it's like ice mint. Kind of like minty, minty ice mint.

Okay, like it. Because I had to Google these ones. These are Manuka honey blackcurrant. And you ood blackcurrant. No, I don't do blackcurrant. I don't do blackcurrant. And a lot, but in a Manuka, I remember like when it was COVID and you had the sore throat, and I bought a massive bag of these.

That was you. Legit. But the lemon honey as well, so good. Yeah, throat, and I bought a massive bag of these. That was you. They're legit. But the lemon honey as well, so good. Yeah, yeah, lemon honey's got to be number one, right? Oh, someone has some messages are coming in. So there's liquid-filled throaties. When was the last time you had a throaties? And in the middle it is.

It's got a liquid in it. I forgot about throaties. Yeah, throaties rule. And the orange throaties with the gooey middle. Yeah. It's like a lolly. It's more like a lolly. You've got to bring back those real nasty,

do you remember the Vicks Formula 44 lollies? Yeah. The black cough medicine, the Vicks Formula 44, but they had the lolly version. That was so, yeah, that was all we had growing up because mum knew we wouldn't just eat them like lollies, like we would the orange and the lemon ones. What about a, like a kind of a commendation

for Fisherman's Friend? Those like, you put them in and you- Not to be scoffed! You're just like, not to be scoffed at! Yeah, my father-in-law's a big Fisherman's Friend guy.

So always got a pack of Fisherman's Friends on there. Number one, it's lemon honey. Gotta be. Number two, if we're doing final rankings, number two would be the menthol because Hayley had menthol and I had butter menthol. Yeah.

Well, Hayley's not here, so I'm making blackcurrant. You're making blackcurrant number two. You're just strung up. Oh, blackcurrant's number three? I'm happy to trade it off. Honorary mention for strepsils and fisherman's friends. And throaties. And throaties.

And honorary mention for the throaties with the goo in the middle. Yep. All right, joining us in studio next... Finn Butcher and his gold medal. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. I just held a gold medal. Did nothing for it. Did nothing for it.

Did nothing for it. Finn just passed it straight to me. Finn Butcher's in studio with a gold medal that he won for Aotearoa New Zealand. Thanks for coming in. Been back a couple of days? Yep. Yeah, two days ago

Got back in in the morning So How's the reception been Since you've been home Oh it's been awesome We love a winner here Can I touch it Oh did you not get to touch it

I get to touch it Go for it Heavy Oh heavy Is that what everybody says Yeah yeah Because you're told they're heavy But no one's got any

So which bit Where's the bit of the Eiffel Tower It's that hexagon on the front This bit Yeah yeah So it's just like a piece of where's the bit of the Eiffel Tower? It's that hexagon on the front. This bit? Yeah, yeah. So it's just like a piece of iron from the Eiffel Tower.

So I think when they refurbished the panels or something, they kept them in storage and then chucked it on. That's amazing. Pretty cool. You've got a gold medal

and it's got a piece of the Eiffel Tower on it. That's rad. But the question on everybody's lips, did you try one of the muffins? The chocolate muffins?

The muffins were elite. They've got to release the recipe. No, they have released. I think they have. I think it has been released. I think it has been. What was so, it was muffins that were

at the Olympic Village. What was so amazing about them? Well, they're just like chocolate muffins, but they had like a gooey centre. Yeah. I mean, and like everything there's free

for everyone who's staying in the village. Yeah. Free stuff's always better than paying for it. Did you give it like a quick microwave in the oven for the muffin? No, just straight off the shelf. It was just already gooey? Yeah, already gooey in the middle.

Amazing. What was the food like at the village? It was good. It was really good. It was just like buffet style, and you could sort of choose from a few different cuisine options. Yeah. I mean, I saw a few things in the media

saying it was a bit average, but, like, to be honest, they had between 10,000 and, like, 30,000 people stay in the village, so you're not going to get five-star. Oh, yeah. Kiwis aren't fussy, eh? We just like that it's there. Like, if it's free, we're like, how much does this cost? Free?

Should you? How many plates am I allowed? I'll take that. I'll take them, I'll take them. I'll take them. Yeah, it was dangerous before the race. You've got to take it easy on the desserts and everything. But luckily we finished sort of halfway through the game so I could have a few days at the podium.

Did you stay in the village after? Because it kind of blows my mind how many people finish and immediately are back off home. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we were. Our canoe slam guys were all in the village until the end, which was cool

because then we got to go to the closing ceremony and like hang out and watch some other athletes. We got to bear the flag for that rules dude. How amazing is that? So crazy.

Like, yeah, when Nigel called me, I was just like, you're kidding. Like, I saw his contact pop up and I was like, oh no. And I was with my girlfriend.

Wait a minute, what had you done? I was like, what have I done? And I'm like, oh no and I was with my girlfriend wait a minute what had you done because whenever I get a call that I'm like oh no I know what I've done wrong yeah so lucky it wasn't

anything bad but yeah I was with my girlfriend Courtney and she like straight away like knew what it was

what it was about because I was like pretty much crying on the phone but yeah it was epic oh that's so cool such a cool experience

yeah yeah and with Lisa like the the absolute I was like pretty much crying on the phone. But yeah, it was epic. Oh, that's so cool. Such a cool experience. Yeah, yeah. And with Lisa, like the goat. Oh my God, yeah. The gold water. I was just looking at a list of countries that don't even have a single gold medal. Like there are countries, you have a gold medal, they don't, Albania doesn't have one.

That's just, like the list goes on. It's huge, huge list. And she's got eight. Yeah. That's insane. It's huge. Huge list. And she's got eight. Yeah. That's insane. That's so crazy. So, Los Angeles? Yeah, go on.

Yeah, all right. There he is. There he is. I've got to go try to fend this thing now. I'm keen. I love it. So I'm not stopping any time soon. I've got no idea what the, because you're 29.

Yeah. What's the sort of like age that you can do this, like what are the competitive ages of your penicillin? I think I'm actually around the average age. Right. Somewhere around there like 28, 29,

but like the window is quite big. Right. Yeah. Right. I think because it's quite technical, it just depends on like the way that you paddle and stuff like that. Right.

If you're quite technical, you can hold like a wider, like you can be way older than someone who like relies a lot on their like physical stuff. Yeah. So yeah, we've got a while. See, I needed him in the canoe on the Whanganui River instead of Callum,

who did no paddling. He did no paddling. You could have done half the paddling. He just talked. You would be perfect for the Whanganui River trip. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This would be great. Oh, let me know next time.

Yeah. Not enough white water for you, though. We bailed it. I was in with my wife, and she bailed on every... I'm not into the flat water, man. Too boring. Oh, yeah. This is a lot of flat water.

There's a lot of flat water. Yeah. Might have to wait until some heavy rain to get it done. I know you've got a jam-packed schedule of going around and showing everybody your medal. Yeah, yeah. Very, very proud of all of our Olympians, especially the gold medal winner. So thanks for coming in, man.

Really appreciate it. Yeah, it's been epic. Pretty cool to be able to get the privilege to be able to do this kind of stuff. Absolutely. I'm loving it. It's cool. Awesome.

Thanks for coming in, Finn. You already. Thank you. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. 724, we're uniting behind Daffodil Day That's cool. Awesome. Thanks for coming in, Finn. You already. Thank you. 724. We're uniting behind Daffodil Day because every Daffodil counts. August 30. So two weeks today.

And you can join ZM. We've got a lineup of great New Zealanders in at the iHeart Radio Lounge just outside our studios here for a big day, a big live broadcast streaming at ZM Online. There'll be performances from Kaylee Bell, John Tugud, Cassie Henderson, Park Road, LABs, Joel and more. It's a huge day to basically raise awareness or just let you know that it's happening. Get behind daffodil day. Uh-huh.

One in three people affected by cancer in their lives, huh? Yeah, yeah, exactly. That's a lot of people. Now, one of those performers, Cassie Henderson, joins us next. Just to discuss what? Life.

Just life. Life. This as well. Does she have a gold medal? No, she doesn't have a gold medal. Oh. Might have been a bar set quite high by Flynn Butcher.

I expect every guest today to have a gold medal. Maybe she's got one of those gold chocolate coins. Put it on a little lanyard. Yes. You got a gold medal. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Oh look, she's in studio. We've just got so many guests today. We do. Wow, hi.

Hi. We've actually just during that song have been discussing perfumes from the Chemist Warehouse Yeah Because you're wearing A classic today So I said man You smell nice

And it was Britney Spears fantasy Britney Spears fantasy You can't go past The classics You can't be the classics No you really can't You really really can't

Can't beat them I'm just And now we're going through I don't currently have An eau de parfum Because you You're an over sprayer I over spray

So I get one every couple of years. I go through it in a month and then just don't have one for the rest of the time. Whereas on like special occasion, just two. Just two squirts and that's it. Yeah, see, I go chemist warehouse so I can just douse myself in it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a shower. That's great.

And also it smells different on different people. Yeah. Like sometimes they'll give you the tester and you'll be like, that's nice, but it doesn't smell like that when it hits the skin. Do you go to the bougie section though where they have to unlock the cabinet? No. No. She's a shaft dweller.

She's a shaft dweller. Pretty spares. It's a shaft dweller. That's how you know it's a cheap shaft. They don't even care if you steal it. They want you to because they think it's easier for them to just write it off and sell it to enough. I'm just looking. What was your one again?

Eros. Eros. Versace. Versace. It's a classic. You're actually doing it right for yourself. I've seen how much that costs. Oh yeah, it's behind the locked cabinet.

Yeah, they have to unlock it. Absolutely. Locked cabinet. Oh God, that's top shelf. Now, Cassie Henderson, tell us about your song Seconds to Midnight. Yes.

In brackets, 11.59. Yeah, well, the story of that is that I first wrote a song called 11.59 in 2021. And I wrote it. Was that a sequel to Elemental P's 11.57? No, but I wish it was. Good idea. I was going to say you skipped 11.58. Maybe we should look it up.

That's the trilogy. That's the trilogy. Yeah, so I wrote the song about a New Year's Eve where I basically saw somebody who I wanted to be my midnight kiss kissing somebody else. And it was tough and we worked on the song for a couple years and Seconds to Midnight is what came out of it. Nice. Wait, you

didn't work with the person you wanted to kiss with on the song? No, no, no. Playing the long game then. Well, to be fair, I kind of won that game because we ended up dating for like four years after that. Oh, okay. Well, no, I'd say he won because he got his cake and got to eat it too, didn't he?

Yeah. But now you've got a song out of it. Yeah, true. We'll see. This game is continuing. This game is long. There's no clear winner yet. But no longer dating?

No longer dating, no. Oh, okay. No, lovely, lovely ex-boyfriend. Still friends, but yeah. Gave me a great song out of it, so I'm stoked. Yeah, there you go. See, if you're going to write songs about people, you need to have an ugly breakup and hate them.

No, true. And I've struggled with it this time around. Honestly. Honestly. Yeah, I usually am very like breakups, hate my ex, but this one's absolutely lovely, so I'm like, what the hell do I do? Yeah, Honestly. Yeah, I usually am very, like, breakups, hate my ex, but this one's absolutely lovely, so I'm like, what the hell do I do? Yeah, right. Mutual parting of sorts.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, here's hoping for more heartbreak in the future. Thank you. Yeah, yeah. Real rotten, dirty, toxic breakups. Thank you. Me too.

To inspire other songs. Yeah. Well, I mean, every song has, like, a little bit of GST on top, right? Like it's not. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story. Sounds like the government over there. Adding some GST and some tax. A bit more GST on top.

Yeah, yeah. Well, can't let the truth get in the way of a good song. So, yeah. I mean, it was my version of events and he's probably out there somewhere being like, we weren't even dating. It's not the version of events as I recall. What have you got coming up? So big summer this year.

It's like the biggest summer of gigs that we've ever had, which is so cool. And we're releasing a brand new EP very soon called The Yellow Chapter. And then another EP after that. And then I'll finally be able to pay off my mum's mortgage. Hopefully. I'm hoping for Lotto to get back into the double digits

before I can pay off anybody's mortgage Yeah, well hopefully that's the long term plan but yeah, it's going to be a really big summer I haven't played any live shows since Homegrown this year so it's going to be good to get back on the wagon Right, so look out for dates soon

Yeah, for sure, all of the dates will be released very soon, so I'm very excited And the single is out, Seconds to Midnight soon. Yeah, yeah, for sure. All of the dates will be released very soon. Awesome. Very excited. And the single is out, Seconds to Midnight. Cassie Henderson, thank you so much. Thank you. For coming in. Next on the show, Ray Gunn overnight has made a statement.

This is the Australian breakdancer. We all know what the last week has been like. It feels like a lifetime since we discovered this Australian breakdancer. Yeah, she's made a statement and it's next. Play it. ZM's Fletch Vornanalee. Ray Gunn. We discovered this Australian breakdown. Made a statement and it's next. Reagan. His name is Rachel Gunn. I assumed her name was Reagan. Well, like you said, I don't think I've seen a person become more famous in the space of not even a week.

And go through the entire thing. The ups and downs and the hero moments almost simultaneously as the villain, as the laughing stock, as the cult hero. It's not like the guy from Turkey who everybody agreed was a badass.

Yeah. Or that real cool Korean shooter who just leaned back and was just like, share the iPad. Or the guy with the bulge. That's just going to happen. Everyone's like, good work, you, man. Good stuff, dude. Happy for you and that bulge. Who needs a medal?

Yeah. When you've got that thing. But this Australian breakdancer, obviously, yeah. The whole thing is so good. As far as breakdancers go. But she's been through it all. It was like a week ago that it would have been almost Saturday morning when I woke up to it. And then since then, Adele stopped a concert to talk about it.

Jimmy Fallon had an entire sketch on his show about it. Yeah. With an actress playing her and dancing and doing the kangaroo and the snake or whatever it was on his show. She, and we spoke yesterday, Dancing with the Stars, like, could be an offer for her. So, endorsement deals as well for, like, big food and, you know, apparel brands. She's a 36-year-old university lecturer. Now, overnight, she has made a statement on her Instagram. Hi, everyone.

Ray Gunn here. I just want to start by thanking all the people who have supported me. I really appreciate the positivity, and I'm glad I was able to bring some joy into your lives. That's what I hoped. I didn't realize that that would also open the door to so much hate uh which has frankly been pretty devastating um well i went out there and i had fun i did take it very seriously i worked my butt off

preparing for the olympics and I gave my all, truly. And, yeah, now just kind of she's going on a two-week Europe pre- she did say pre-planned break. What if she's not, like, hiding and stuff? She may not be wearing her cricket outfit that she did the break dancing in. But she kind of has said, look, let's just give my family a break as well because there is all these conspiracy theories swirling around about how she got the selection.

Yeah, I read something and I was like, that doesn't seem like a reputable source at this stage. Wait for further investigation. There's like a petition as well that's happening in Australia to have an investigation as to why she was selected. Like the whole thing is just so cocked. But, yeah, she's just kind of like, let's just take a break. But I don't know if you can just tell the internet to stop memeing you.

My experience with the internet is when you ask them to stop or say, guys, stop being mean, it only encourages them to keep going and be meaner. Yeah. The internet is basically the group of your mates that aren't reading the situation when you're almost about to cry. Yeah. And they keep

the pie line happening. McCafe. Great things are brewing in every cup. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Ailey. 17 minutes away from 8. Next on the show,

there is a new, two new flavours. Two new chippies. And Vaughan Smith loves a chippy. Friday night's chippies night. I sit down, I play PlayStation with my friends. Tonight we'll be playing Pirates, we'll be playing Sea of Thieves.

What about greasy controllers? Ew, yuck. And then where are you wiping your fingers? Ew, on your teeth. Of course you are. It's the end of the day. It's Friday. I'm in a big bean bag.

I'm reclined. I've got a bag of chips. No guilt at all. I'm having the time of my life. It's Friday. I'm in a big bean bag. I'm reclined. I've got a bag of chips. No guilt at all. I'm having the time of my life. It's my weekly highlight. Well, Yummy Yummy is next. And two new chip flavours to talk about today. ZM.

With Hayley away today with the sore throat, no voice thing, it defaults to me, the postman, for Friday Flashback. Now, I am going to pick a song that I believe is, my math's 13 years old. Yeah, 2011, this song. One of the artist's biggest songs. And this artist rumoured to have a new album and rumoured to headline Glastonbury next year.

Okay. And at this stage, obviously rumours, because this artist doesn't need to do anything. They're rich enough. There's so many clues. Is she a she? She is a she. She is a she.

Yummy, yummy. Yummy, yummy. A segment of the show where we take a look at new food items and trends and a couple of chips hitting the shelves. Mm-hmm. And you're a big fan. You were straight over this news press release. Yeah.

Eda Ridges have teamed up with Cully's. Great local source. I thought you were about to say have teamed up with Matthew Ridge.

Aficionados. No. That's what we call No word on that, Ridges. That's what we call Matthew Ridge. That's what we called Matthew Ridge back in the day.

Ridges. He really missed a trick having a brand of chips in the 90s. He could have, totally. Oh, he had the star power. He had the star power. He could have done it. Him and Mark could have done some chips. Him and Mark Ellis in the 90s. He could have, totally. He had the star power. He had the star power. He could have done it.

Him and Mark could have done some chips. Him and Mark Ellis could have done it. He could have done chips. And then Mark got into orange juice. And then he left Ritchie behind. Oh, R.I.P. Ritchie. Who's not dead. He is not involved in Ritchie's.

Carly's are. Oh, my God. I love their sauces. Carly's sauces are top notch. Yep. Cheeky Chipotle is one of the flavors of Ridgis, which promises, I said, what are these Ridgis? What's the deal here?

So these are eater? Deep Ridges. Yeah, they're real thick cut. Yeah, real thick cut with the Deep Ridgis. So one of them is Cheeky Chipotle, and the other one is Habanero Pickle Nays. What? Their Habanero Pickle Nays is so good.

Yeah. It's like burger sauce, pickle nays is so good. Yeah. It's like burger sauce, but it's spicy. But, yeah. Is it like a smoky, spicy? I would say the Chipotle's probably got a slightly smoky. Yeah, right. Oh, my God. But the habanero might be smoked before it enters the pickle nays.

Now, they're not going to go light on the flavor, because that's what I loved about it. This is because I spotted that someone popped this on on Reddit last night and I was very excited. First question with the most upvotes. Are these actually spicy? Because there's been a few things in New Zealand lately that should be seriously investigated for false advertising that promise spicy. But they're not. And I wouldn't even say they're mild spicy.

I'd say it's slightly tangy. You've got to think about the boomers. They don't like a lot of spice. The boomers won't be ordering anything with spicy or pepper or habanero in the title anyway. Yeah. So I wouldn't worry about them. I'd say if you're going to put that in the title, it's got to meet the expectations put forth. But my issue isn't so much the spice level. It's the flavor level.

Because I feel like a lot of chip places have backed off the flavour level. You simply can't have enough pickle flavour. No. Pickles sometimes aren't pickly enough for me. I want the flavour dust and chip dust at the bottom. Yeah, yeah, yeah. See the dirt in my tongue. Did I tell you about the pickle dust?

No. I saw a TikTok and it was a lady and she bought a whole bunch of pickles, her favourite pickles, and she put them in the dehydrator and then when they were completely dehydrated, turned them into dust and sprinkled them on all of her food as seasoning. What? Like pickle dust?

And she said it was concentrated pickle. Oh my God, I'm here for that. Yeah, I know. Surely someone makes that though because that's, I don't even. Pickle dust. Pickle dust. Google that, pickle dust.

Someone's got to be making that. Pickle dust recipe. Because you know the pickles that are sweet and tangy are the best pickles in the whole world. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Like that's what I want. I want pickle dust made of that. Pickle dust recipe. The pickles that are sweet and tangy are the best pickles in the whole world. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I want. I want pickle dust made of that. Pickle compound. No, no, no, no, no. Don't buy pickle compound.

That's for, um, that's a metal worker's stuff. Oh, okay. It's not pickle compound. Okay. Pickle powder. Don't be putting that on you. Pickle dust. Tubby Tom's sells pickle dust, um, tangy dill pickle popcorn seasoning. Oh, yes. In like one of those little metal containers that Dax Wax used to come in.

Yes. That's what it looks like. I'm here for that. Low heat, super tang. Yeah, they look yum. But again, if you've got to dehydrate it, you can do this yourself. You can make pickle dust. Yeah.

Yum. Now, do we know, did this Reddit post allude to, because you know quite often a new chocolate or whatever comes out and they're like, it's a week away? No, no, no, it's in. I Googled it and I can see the flavors there. New World, Pack and Save. So all the supermarkets have got them.

So those dudes have got it. Carwin's just sent through. She found it at the warehouse. Oh, fantastic. The warehouse has got it. So this is me tonight. This is my chips. I'm going to bench.

Thank you for your service, Cheetos cheese puffs. Yeah. You're going to be benched for the week. Is that your normal? I will probably be back next week. For your Cheetos? Yeah, for the Cheetos cheese puffs. You eat a whole bag of Cheetos cheese puffs.

Not all the time. Cheetos cheese puffs. But it's the biggest bag you'll ever see in your life, too. It's one of those, like, Costco-sized bags. Oh, my God, the horn. I don't eat a whole bag. Are your fingers, like, you know, like you voted in a third world election and they've dyed your fingers so you can't vote again?

So you can't vote again, yeah. Yeah. Look at me. PlayStation. You can imagine how attractive this is. Very attractive. Slouched in a beanbag, three foot away from a screen, playing pirates, yelling at my mates. We have had a review in on the text machine.

Hubby bought the habanero one, so I'm not light on flavour, but more tangy than spicy. Yum, though. The habanero picolines. Yeah, that's a good review. That's a good review. I like what Hubby's putting down there. I'll be picking it up.

That could be good for the road trip. I don't normally do a chip on a road trip, but it's not my car, so I don't care if the crumbs go all over my seat. Do you share chips on a road trip. I don't normally do a chip on a road trip, but it's not my car, so I don't care if the crumbs go all over my seat. Do you share chips on a road trip? I don't know. Because I share chips on road trip things. More lollies.

Lollies are for road trips. No, the chips are your main and your lollies are your pod on the road trip. I've never had chips on a road trip. Have you? Never. Love chips on a road trip. But I don't like sharing them

because everybody else is going to put their hand in the bag. Yeah. Even at home, they're my kids and we're living in the same thing but I'll pour theirs into a bowl so they don't need to put

their grubby hands in my chip bag. Well, we'll expect a report back on Monday after your game night with these new flavours. You'll know.

You'll know. You'll hear. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughn and Hayley. Thanks, Bryn. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley. Thanks, Bryn. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley. Coming up are the All Blacks.

Also, around 8.30, if you have managed over the last week or so to get in the draw to see Sabrina Carpenter live in New York, we could be calling you back. You must answer the phone with please, please, please.

Well, it was meant to be Hayley's pick for Friday Flashback, but because she's sick today, resting the voice, it defaults to me because I'm next in the line. And I've chosen an artist that has been rumoured and in the news this week. And I will asterisk this by saying rumours, because how much is she worth? $1.5 billion. I remember she went over a billion a few years ago.

Because of her lingerie and makeup and everything like that. Rihanna. Rihanna, despite having two kids. $1.4 billion US dollars. And this is why fans have been screaming out for music. So Taylor Swift's worth $1.3 billion. And she's working really hard and doing concerts and endlessly touring and stuff like that. And Rihanna's just like,

I'll just boss bitch it from here. Yeah, I'll just... Yeah, and she's got two kids, but the rumour is that, and this is being reported in the UK this week from a music insider, that her ninth album is happening and will be

maybe soon. Including her headlining Glastonbury next year. Interesting. She would if she chooses to but I'm not convinced

yet that this is anything like it. I know. I mean, if she does put out an album, it'll be just an album. She's not touring, right?

She'll do maybe like a big festival or two like Coachella or Glastonbury. Maybe. Get it out of the way. She's not going to right? She'll do maybe like a big festival or two like Coachella or Glastonbury. Maybe, get it out of the way. She's not going to do a Taylor Swift. No, why would she? And tour around the world for a year because she doesn't need the money.

No. And she's got two young kids. Yeah. Better things to do. Better things to do. So today's Friday flashback, a Rihanna song that she did with Calvin Harris. And yeah, amazingly, this song was released in 2011, in September.

Okay. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of September 11th. No, it wasn't. No, it was just released in September. It was just released in September in 2011. Rihanna is your Friday Flashback today with Calvin Harris. We found love. ZM.

It's your Friday Flashback on ZM, Rihanna, Calvin Harris, We Found Love. 2011 that song came out. It was 10 weeks number one in the US on the Billboard charts. It was the fifth biggest song in New Zealand in 2011. And it was, yeah. Was that the one with the music video? With the dude in the bath? Yes.

That was the hot guy in the bath. The hot guy in the bath, yeah. The hot guy was in the bath. Yeah. But he was like dirty hot. He was like a little bit grubby. Who ended up being one of the actors in, well, like not a big actor, but one of the actors in like Top Boy.

You know, did you watch that on Netflix? Oh, yeah, yeah, no, I haven't watched it. Oh, you should add that to your list. I've got a long list because a couple of weeks ago we did the... I Need a New Phone. I Need a New Show. Yeah. I Need a New Phone.

I do, actually. Why not? Chuck that on the list of wants, not needs. Yeah, you got on air and you're like, I Need a New Show. I Need a New Show. I was inundated with suggestions to which I... And I still kept getting them from people listening to the podcast later who messaged me on Instagram and were like, if you haven't started this.

And then I even got hit up in the supermarket car park last Saturday. Yeah. She said, have you started the kin yet? Oh, I've heard that's good. Really good. That's on my list. Yeah, that's 10 NZ plus, I think, has that. Okay, yeah.

I literally put that on my list the other day. Yeah, that's on my list. I just finished the Umbrella Academy. The fourth season of that was a bit of a letdown. I feel bad that they rushed list the other day. Yeah, that's on the list. I just finished The Umbrella Academy. The fourth season of that was a bit of a letdown. I feel bad that they rushed that. That felt rushed. You know when they get to a show and they're like, we're going to have to wrap it up somehow.

Yeah, and they wrap it up. We're about to lose all these actors. Let's just rush it and wrap it up. And it felt a bit rushed. Well, Game of Thrones, the last season of Game of Thrones. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Literally. Umbrella Academy kids got Game of Thrones hard. So then when I finished that, I of Thrones, the last season of Game of Thrones. Yeah, yeah. Literally. Umbrella Academy kids got Game of Thrones hard.

So then when I finished that, I was like, on to the next one on the list. And one of the shows on the list that lots of people recommended was The Industry. It's an HBO show. So automatically, tick. That gets you because it's HBO. HBO tends not to make terrible television.

Yep. Especially, there's three seasons of this show. They won't make them terrible for three seasons in a row. I, there's three seasons of this show. They won't make them terrible for three seasons in a row. I've always heard mixed things about this show. Like, it gets kind of, I always look at the ratings

and I'm like, So I started watching it and I was like, what does this feel like? What is, and it's like early 20-somethings, first job, struggling in the financial world.

Yep. I think it's set after the global financial crash of 2008. Yep. They're in London. There's some Americans, some Brits. And I was like, why does this feel? And then I looked up who created it.

Lena Dunham. That made girls. It's got that same 20-something energy of, we're just trying to get by. Well, I don't know. And I was just like, I don't think I'm going to like this. And I watched the first episode and I was just like, I don't think I'm going to like this. Well, you can't relate to that because you're not a 20-something girl. I was once upon a time I was a 20-something girl just struggling to get by,

doing what I needed to do to get by in this world designed to keep me down. But, yeah, no, I gave it one episode and I was like, not for me. And lots of people recommended it to me. Yeah, it's got like 3.8 out of 5 on Google Review. Yeah, I think it was like 7 on IMDb. Yeah, it's 7.2 out of 10. That's pretty good for a show. Pretty good for IMDb, yeah.

But it's just not you. It didn't. So what I did was I found a show that no one recommended, which is I'm that person that asks for everybody's recommendations and just went, I want to see what I can find by myself. Why'd you bother? I started the new Vince Vaughn show, Bad Monkey. And I'm only like 10 minutes into it.

And already I'm like, this is my energy. It's got that awesome Vince Vaughn from Wedding Crashers energy. You know when he just starts talking and he starts talking and he's just talking a million miles an hour and you're working out. He must be speaking about as many words a minute as the Gilmore Girls. Gilmore Girls packed a lot of script into each episode of the Gilmore Girls, which is also a great TV show if you're looking for a re-watch

all these days later. The Gilmore Girls. But, I'm on to Bad Monkey now, but I wanted to talk about this morning, when did people keep recommending a show to you that just wasn't for you when you got round to it? Or they kept saying, oh, have you seen? And you're like, yeah, it wasn't for me.

It's, yeah, in your big shows, like your Breaking Bads, your Game of Thrones, when someone's like, I just didn't get, I didn't get into it. I didn't like it. I gave it a few eps. I tried. No. And you're just like, that's like some of the best television ever made. Yeah, yeah. Like Breaking Bad,

so beautifully shot. So beautifully done. I remember someone saying, I couldn't get into Breaking Bad because someone told me to start at season three. I was like, who told you that? Who told you to start at season three? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I mean, it was a slow burner. Oh, it was a slow burner, but that's what makes a good slow burner,

not a slow burner without a payoff. That's what made the show so great is that you invested all that time in it. Yeah. Someone's just messaged in. This is me with Orange is the New Black. People kept saying, oh, you'll love Orange is the New Black. I was like, I don't. I think I watched the first season and I was like, eh.

Yeah. Do you think straight people are telling lesbians they're going to love Orange is the New Black because it's a female prison and they just assume that's got to be everybody's cup of tea if they're also into women? Yeah, maybe. Well, we want to take some calls. 0800 dial ZM or 9696. What?

Yeah, what just wasn't for you? Yeah, what TV show? You know, had all the hallmarks. Movies as well, or just TV? I reckon just TV shows. Okay, just TV shows. Yeah, because movies, it's different. Yeah, it is different.

It is different. Indescribably different, but it's different. What just wasn't for you? 0800 dial ZM is the number. 9696. Text through. Chaperone. Good luck, just wasn't for you. 0800 dial ZM is the number. 9696 text through. Chapel Roan, good luck babe on ZM. Play ZM. You know, I know for a fact people quite like telling people on television

that they don't watch television. Yeah. I don't watch television. That's what they say to people on television. I found another thing people like doing, telling what TV shows they don't like. Because there's so many messages in. Love it.

I love this. And it's always big shows. And this is what... Don't get it. This is what we want to know. What is the TV show that everybody told you to watch that you just cannot get into or don't get? Yeah. Some messages.

Somebody said, I'm a female. I'm a 30-something female. Yes. And everyone's like, you would love Emily in Paris. And I hate it. I would... I-something female. Yes. And everyone's like, you would love Emily in Paris. And I hate it. I would, I just, yeah, I don't even need to watch an episode to know that I would hate Emily in Paris. Emily in Paris is certainly not for us. Certainly not for us.

No, it's not. Wasn't made with us in mind. Clea, what is the show that you just can't get into? Peaky Blinders. Okay. A lot of you people have messaged in Peaky Blinders. What is it? Can you... I mean, the guys were hot and all, but

I just could not get into it. I tried watching five episodes, and I was just like, I can't do this anymore. Not for you. Okay. It's a bit of a lad's show, though, isn't it? And it's real lad's, lad's, lad's. Because everyone in England now wears a cheese cutter hat, or is that what they wore? Peaky Blinders. And dress like Peaky Blinders. Yeah. I was lad's, lads, lads, lads. Because everyone in like, everyone now wears a like cheese cutter hat, or is that what they wore?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And dress like Peaky Blinders. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was lads, lads, lads, for sure. Lads, yeah. Claire, thank you. Rebecca, what show can't you get into? Ozark.

Ozark? Ozark. Ozark. How many eps did you give it? Because that, for me, was up there with Breaking Bad. It was brilliant. Yeah, we got recommended it by so many people and I think

I got, I tried, I really really tried and I got to the fourth episode I was just like, nah, too dark I don't get it. Not me, just not my vibe at all but my husband, he got totally addicted to it, watched it back to back until he finished it all off.

Can I say on behalf of husbands everywhere, thank you for just tapping out of it rather than kind of half-assing it, being on your phone throughout, talking throughout. Just being like, it's not for me, you carry on by yourself. It's better you just go find another TV or screen somewhere. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you go. You leave the room, that's absolutely fine. It's better that

you're out of here. Yeah. That'd be great. Rather than watching bloody Instagram reels on the couch beside while someone's trying to watch a television show. That's good on you. Thanks, Rebecca. Why for the week?

More messages in. Quite a few people did say Ozark, which surprised me. It is a slow burner. Someone messaged in saying, I'm a lesbian

and I also worked in prisons. Yep. And the amount of people that said to me, you must love Orange is the New Black. I did not love Orange is the New Black. I couldn't get into it. I was watching it and I was like in prisons. Yep. And the amount of people that said to me, you must love Orange is the New Black. I did not love Orange is the New Black.

No. I couldn't get into it. I was watching it and I was like, this is ridiculous. Yep. So I don't know if it's not realistic to them. Yep. Someone said Stranger Things.

The big selling point was I play Dungeons and Dragons and the kids on the show play Dungeons and Dragons. So then when I started watching Stranger Things, my first immediate thought was, that's not how you play Dungeons and Dragons. And then I just couldn't get into Stranger Things. Right. Even though it's everything I should love.

Yeah, right. Fantasy, you know, a bit of a thriller aspect to it. Yeah. Someone said Game of Thrones. Things took a whole episode. They could just get it done in five minutes. Why all this mucking around? Too much mucking around.

I don't know how I feel about House of the Dragon. I'm really struggling to keep watching I haven't started season two yet I've got like three eps and I'm like to go I think mostly

because I've read headlines that are a bit like come on get on with it yeah after the finale so you know that it's going to be yeah

White Lotus I watched one and a half seasons I'm sure it was good I just didn't like it it just seemed like a lot of white people problems but that's what makes it funny yeah

is that yeah I don't know I love White Lotus but that is one of those shows that divides people like it. It just seemed like a lot of white people problems. But that's what makes it funny. Yeah. I love White Lotus, but that is one of those shows that divides people. A lot of people are like, no, I can't get into it. Don't like it. Someone said Clarkson's Farm. I've recommended that to lots of people. Yeah, you love it. Yeah. I don't know if you'd love it. I just like that

there's a guy who's bought a farm and unlike every other farmer who's cash-strapped, he's got so much money, he just does whatever he wants. Yeah, it sounds like rich white people shows problems. Yeah, totally. Young Sheldon, I was a massive Big Bang Theory fan, but this Young Sheldon's quite serious. It's not as funny as I'd hoped.

My friends rave about The Gentleman, which has just been confirmed for season two on Netflix, and I haven't been able to get into it, even though the main guy is so hot. He is hot. He is hot, yeah. He is a hot dude. He's in something else coming out soon.

And he looks equally as hot. I was like, good for him. Well, he still looks like he looks. He's just hot. Yeah, he's just hot. Somebody said, Game of Thrones, I'm one of those wanky people who couldn't deal with the continuity issues between the show and the book.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay, yeah. They're a book purist. At least they there recommended, you know, recognize themselves as wanky because otherwise we would have said it. Bridgerton.

Just because I'm female, it doesn't mean I'm going to like it. I hate those shows and people are like, oh, you haven't watched Bridgerton? You're simply a mouse. I'm like, no. No.

Schitt's Creek. Lots of recommendations. To be fair, I tried to watch Schitt's Creek early when Schitt's Creek. Lots of recommendations. To be fair, I tried to watch Schitt's Creek early when Schitt's Creek was maybe in its second season. Yep. And I watched the first couple episodes. I was like, ah, this isn't for me.

I was the same. Gave it a rewatch just before the final season, and it got me that time. And one of the greatest comedy shows ever made. It's a great comedy. It's so brilliant. It takes a while to kind of realise that it's quite a bit different. Yeah.

Black Mirror, I didn't like those at all. Yeah, especially lately it's quite real life, isn't it? A lot of Black Mirror episodes. Yeah. It's a bit too close to home. I'll never understand the hype around Emily in Paris. It's so unrealistic and over-dramatised. You get robbed in Paris at gunpoint. And it smells. It

smells. Yeah. It smells like piss everywhere. Yellowstone. I can't get into it. It's boring and annoying. I'm the only person in my family that doesn't sit down at the dinner table and have a big Yellowstone discussion. I love Yellowstone. I saw someone the other day walking around the city in a Dutton Ranch hoodie. I was like, merch, good. With the Y on it.

Yeah. That's cool. Because you can actually stay at the ranch. I think you can. The house that they used for the filming. Well, you can do tours there or something. Someone said Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Ozark for me. I really liked it, but then it just felt like it was the same thing every episode.

Sons of Anarchy. So many people recommended that to me. I watched the first season. I was like, okay. And I watched the second season and I was like, okay. And then third one I just kind of gave up on. Yeah, right. And everyone said, yeah.

Maybe they were watching for Charlie Hunnam. There was a bit of Hunnam. There was definitely a Hunnam factor. Bit of Hunnam. Play. ZDM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. People that don't have, basically, has been this week's Fact of the Day theme.

Yep. We've covered a whole lot of people who never need glasses today. We are covering people who never have children. What percentage of people never have children? Oh, okay. So from my research, the US Census Bureau are the only people that have released a report on all sorts of aged adults with no children. I wonder if our census, does our census do this? Yeah, it does ask if you've got children.

Oh, okay. So I haven't seen the census data, New Zealand census data. Certainly wasn't... If you find it now, I'm going to be so pissed off because I looked for it. Oh, did you already look? Yeah, I gave it a look last night. Oh, I can't be bothered. Oh, just have a quick Google.

Okay, have a quick Google. Just in case. Yeah. So... I mean, you can talk while I Google. You're still allowed to do that. I'm allowed to talk? Yeah.

Okay, cool. Well, 70... The age groups they looked at, 55 to 64, 65 to 74, and 75 and older. So I like going 75 and older because that's the closest to me saying people who have lived to the end of their life with no children.

In America, 11%. 11% of people that get to 75, so let's just say 1 in 10, effectively, don't have children by the time they are over 75. I would have thought that would have been higher. You would have thought it would have been more. Well, it is getting, the younger you go, so if you go to 55 to 64, a slightly younger, but just bordering sort of Gen Z baby boomer.

It's definitely, I know Gen X, a little bit of baby boomer. Right. 19.6. That almost doubles in that change of that 20-year generation of people that don't have any children at all. So it is definitely, the trend is showing that more and more people aren't having children. Yeah. But at the moment, the people who have lived their entire life no children are 75 years and older is 11%. All the stats from New Zealand are like old, like 2017.

Did you see a stat from 2017? There was one from there, childless couple and empty nesters grow. Right. Almost a quarter of a million more couples are predicted to be living without children by 2038. Say stats NZ. Right.

Yeah, it's definitely going up. All trends seem to be saying that it's, and it's not good news for anybody, but particularly like China and Japan are apparently really in a struggle. Japan and sort of getting towards it now, but in the next 20 years, China's going to be. Well, apparently there'll be more pets in Chinese households than kids. Than kids. Like by 2030 or something like that? Yeah, that was news this week.

Yeah. So today's fact of the day is that 11% of people over 75 do not have children. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. All right, we are making the winner draw for our first of five trips to see Sabrina Carpenter live. You've got to answer with please, please, please, though. Please, please, please. Is that Jordan? Yes.

She couldn't say hi, it's Jordan because you wouldn't have given her the prize. She had to say please, please, please first. Jordan, you've done it. That is what we wanted to hear. You are off to New York to see Sabrina Carpenter live. Are you serious? Absolutely, yeah. Mom.

I'm trying to find my parents. I can't find them. Is this a prank? Is this a prank? No. No, it's not a prank. Oh, my God. I hate you.

How old are you? You have to go check with your parents if you're being pranked. No, parents are the ones that get pranked and scammed. We're not pranking and scamming. Oh, my God. I hate seeing it. How old are you? You have to go check with your parents if you're being pranked. No, parents are the ones that get pranked and scammed. We're not pranking and scamming. Oh, my God. Thank you. I'm trying to find my mom and dad. I think I'm home alone right now, though.

Okay. It sounds like you might need one of them to take to New York because we're going to send you tickets to see Sabrina Carpenter live in New York. You get some spending money, accommodation as well, and you'll be flying American Airlines with flights from Auckland and Christchurch nonstop to the USA with connections to more than 200 destinations across the Americas. Congratulations. I think I'm in a little bit of shock right now.

Thank you so much. That's absolutely fine. And, of course, we've got four more of these to give away. Our next location will be Los Angeles playing at, it used to be the Staples Centre. Yes. But now it's Crypto.com Arena. Arena,

yeah. So a huge show. Make sure you're listening for that activator or the mother trucker to get in the draw, next week's draw, to see her live in LA. Oh, thank you. Coming up on the show, though, All Blacks Geordie Barrett and Dalton Papali'i,

head of the All Blacks Argentina. Did he nail that? Did he nail the last name? Not quite. Not quite. Not quite. We're just talking about MIQ In the studio With All Blacks

Geordie Barrett and Dalton Papaletti See I told you Fletch Yeah nailed it You nailed that last name Nailed it Ahead of tomorrow night's game At Eden Park

Against Argentina We were just talking about Last time we talked to you Geordie You were in MIQ Yeah that's right Doing the isolation Yeah Doing the iso

In Britomart So we actually iso in Britomart. We actually went back to Britomart this week in the same hotel and had a team dinner in the restaurant, so it was pretty traumatic. But you got to walk out. That's right. Did you do a couple of loops around the car park? What was the

exercise regime? They'd take you down for an hour at a time or something and you got to walk around and around in a circle. Yeah, you walked around in a square or through these gates like you were cattle so we didn't exercise that idea the other night. That was only a few years ago. Let's move on.

We'll move on. Up against Argentina, Eden Park on Saturday night. What's the record at Eden Park? Haven't lost since at Eden Park for like... I'm not too sure what the record is, but I know it's been a few years that we haven't lost there, but... So no pressure.

No pressure, no pressure. But, you know, I think we do pretty well there, but touch wood that we do do well. But, you know, last week was pretty tough going against them because I'll credit to them, though. They came down and really and really showed us up. But I think it's another week for us to respond to what Scotty Hansen said. So I think that was a pretty cool quote from him.

Producer Shannon wanted to know if it's hard losing to a team that is so attractive. Like, if that hurts a bit more. Oh, I don't really look at that. Sorry, Shannon. Yeah, whatever floats your boat, I guess. Good look of poise, though. I mean, you guys are, too. Nothing against you, but the last almost.

And then after this, it's off to South... I think it's the accent, to be honest. Yeah, it's a bit more of the heavy lifting. The accent is a lot of the heavy lifting. So then you're off to South Africa. Speaking of accents, not doing heavy lifting. Then next you're off to South Africa. Travelling around,

which is the best country in the world to play rugby in outside of New Zealand? Like without the home crowd, just a country that you go to and it's just like good people, good rugby and a nice country to be in. Yeah, mine's an easy one. It would be South Africa. So we've got two week tour coming up. Johannesburg and Cape Town.

South Africa's just an amazing country to travel to. Obviously very tough rugby. Best team in the world. The people are awesome. It's quite hostile, which can be uncomfortable at times, but it's a great place to go and test yourself. Yeah, and South Africa, a big, beautiful country and a lot of wildlife.

Yeah. Yeah, it's a special place. Yeah, I probably would agree with you on that. Like South Africa, but I also loved probably places in Europe. I loved Ireland, just good people, and they get behind their rugby team. And since they're, you know, one of the best teams in the world, you know, you can see their fan base just all buys in, you know, gets around the team.

And once you go there, you know, you feel like you're in hostile territory. But, you know, that's the beauty of rugby. That's what you look forward to. Yeah, better than going and playing football in the UK, playing soccer. Those guys, like, literally attack. Yeah, yeah. The opposite of the crowd brawls and stuff. Yeah, the riots and everything.

Rugby's the gentleman's sport. Yeah. Over there. Well, best of luck tomorrow night in Eden Park. I know you've got a tight schedule and you've got to go to 12,000 other interviews. What is the point of these interviews, do you think? Dalton told me he's coming in here this morning

to enhance the brand. Enhance the brand? Someone read their playbook. Someone read their playbook. Oh, you're kidding. That's good stuff. Geordie and Dalton, thanks for coming in. Thank you.

Cheers, guys. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Play. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley on ZM. 13 minutes away from nine. Well, we just gave away our first trip to see Sabrina Carpenter live in New York. Four trips are left.

So congratulations to Jordan, who I believe now believes it's not a prank and is off to New York. Keep listening today. More activators, more mother truckers. Our next trip to see Sabrina is L.A. So keep those ears peeled. ZM. Seeing this popping up a little bit, I thought we could finish the week by explaining this

so we go into the weekend a little bit more educated. Okay. You may have seen the girlies as they refer to themselves often. Sort of like, what is that person wise? So you're not saying your name. It's like second person or fourth person? The girlies. Better than Sheila's.

The Sheila's. The Sheila's. The Sheila, but they'd be saying it about themselves. The girlies are saying very demure, very mindful, very cutesy. Demure is making a return to the vocab. Demure. Demure. Demure.

Demure is making a return to the Gen Z girlies. Okay, Shannon's nodding their heads. Is this because you're reading it in your smut? No, there was a TikTok that went viral of someone on their way to work saying they were very demure and they had like full cat eye, full beat. And so now it's just become this big joke kind of like sarcastically.

Using demure, which is described as reserved, modest and shy, typically used of a woman. She was a very demure young lady. Oh, I would say I'm demure. Well, but now the way we're using the word is like demure, but it's like not. Not demure. It's like when something's

sick, it's good. If you're demure, you're like serving. Right. So demure, examples of the modern take on demure. Yes. Being good at a good singer at karaoke, is that demure or not demure? You'd be demure if you really went for it

Really went for it I'm being understated Yeah, like when you bring your own choreography to karaoke Or to the Olympics She was very demure Very demure Ordering a sizzling fajita platter at a restaurant Demure

Very demure It's attention seeking, isn't it? Wearing restaurant? Demure. Very demure, yeah. It's attention-seeking, isn't it? Yeah, wearing heels to the office? Yep, demure. Yeah, because that's where it kind of started with this person with the full beak. Right, okay. Saying everyone has been asking

when no one's been asking. That's apparently quite demure. Right. And telling everyone you took an edible before the function. Demure. The new demure. The new demure. We're educated. We're learning. Heating into the weekend. It's the new. The new demure. Okay. The new demure.

We're educated. We're learning. Heading into the weekend. So words basically mean the opposite of what they used to. Yeah, because we're fun and edgy and we're young. So it's 2024.

Great. Oh. What's your tummy? Yeah, that was my tum-tums. That was my tum-tum-tums. Hey guys, I reckon that was the most fun I've ever had on a show. Ah, not for me. Vaughan?

Nowhere even close. Nowhere even close. Nowhere even close. You haven't been here long, have you? No, I haven't. No. Well, if you were listening and you had fun, why don't you give us a little review and a rating?

ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
