The ZM Podcast Network. The Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley Big Pod. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Thank you Bryn, good morning. Oh morena. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley, two minutes past six.

Beautiful introduction from Bryn Rudkin to celebrate Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori. Good from him. Really good from him. Really good. I can't speak Māori because my grandma was beaten for speaking the language. My mum is not at all here. Her people would have given her a karate chop. My mum wasn't allowed to look right with her left hand at school.

Oh, yes, yes. And my oldest daughter's doing a study, and they have to ask one of their grandparents, or if they don't have grandparents, just like their parents, or an older person, what school was like in their day. And that was my mum. Was never left-handed. Always been right-handed.

But one of the questions was, what was the adversity you faced? And my mum had such little adversity to face. She recalled the story about her friend that was left-handed. She wasn't allowed to ride with a left-hander. She got a smack on the knuckles. Yeah. Adversity. Wow.

I'm Māori and left-handed. I would have really struggled growing up. You have got such a thrashing. Yeah, I grew up in the future, so I've quite little adversity over here as well. Yeah. Coming up on the show, the top six. Yes.

Flights from Dunedin and Hamilton direct to the Gold Coast, back on the cards. Yeah, that's the Jetstar. Jetstar, yeah, good on. Good start. Being from Hamilton, we had a long, proud history of an airport that flew to the Gold Coast.

Yeah. We had Kiwi Air back in the day. We had Freedom. Freedom. Yeah. I've never heard of them. And then they got out of air travel and just got exclusively into furniture. Yeah.

Great couches on the planes, though. Yeah. Oh, they were so comfortable. Lovely. Not safe. Not safe. Oh, no, no, no. If you hit some turbulence, your couches get it all around the plane.

But I've got the top six signs. I'm not from Dunedin. I don't feel I can bash the Dunedinites.'m not from Dunedin. I don't feel like I can bash the Dunedinites. You're from Hamilton though? I'm from Hamilton plus everything in Dunedin is grim. It's like murder and stuff. So I've got the top six signs that the person on the Gold Coast is from Hamilton.

Love this. So they came directly from the Trump. Coming up on the show, Chief Wiggum has responded to Donald Trump's claim that Haitian immigrants who are in the US legally, this is a whole thing in America at the moment, are eating cats and dogs and geese and whatever it is today. If you watched the debate, I've only watched clips, but I know, Fletcher, you've followed it with great interest. Wild.

He made, Trump made some idiotic claims and thank God Chief Wiggum from Springfield has responded. Because this is where it's happening, in Springfield. Yeah. Like, you couldn't even make this stuff up. So good. But next on the show, I think we should talk about Steve-O. Steve-O from Jackass. A little bit concerned for our funny friend.

Yeah, you might have thought maybe he's retired, he's just chilling out. He's matured. He's got some nice, fresh teeth. Yeah. But he's still up to malarkey. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughn and Hayley. Steve-O from Jackass. Arguably, like, the wildest of the lot.

Used to, you know, staple gun his ball sack to, like, walls and stuff. We went to one of the Jackass live show. Was that him, Vaughn, back in the day? Did you? In the 2000s? Yes. show. Was that him born back in the day? Did you? In the 2000s? Yes. Yeah. Was it awful?

It was awful. And on stage I think he gun stapled his ball to a cross or something. And he also cut his tongue. Yeah. Yeah. That whole thing was weird. I never really was into the Jackass films because they were so painful to watch, especially the stuff he did.

And they were like, what, mid-2000s? Yeah. It was huge. They were huge. Johnny Knoxville. Excuse me, is the movie on? Just in the middle of this. Bored, are you?

No, no, I'm not bored. No, I'm not bored. I'm having the time of my life. Okay, that's good. Just checking. This kind of feels like that's our fault. No, no, absolutely not your fault at all. Right.

We're not excited enough. It's like you were wondering lovemaking, but tell the person it's got nothing to do with them. Oh, yeah, yeah, no, no, it was great. It was great. It was fantastic. I'm sad as hell. We just can't help but feel that we're not great lovers now.

I know. How did that go that way? Anyway, so Stevo, because I followed Stevo a little bit. He's got a YouTube channel and, like, he's sober now and he's got this girlfriend. He's got a fresh set of new teeth because he, like, mangled them so much. He's got a podcast, right? He's got a podcast, but he still does these pranks and stuff.

Come on. He's 50. Yeah, grow up. He's 50. Like, come on. Well, he had this idea earlier in the year that he was going to get D cup breast implants as a gag and do it as a joke and then like film a bunch of content and then get them removed. Like he wasn't going to keep them.

Yep. And he talked to surgeons about it and was like, can I do this? Can you make sure I'm not like messed up afterwards? Because imagine like if like I got breast implants, there's like skin there to work with. But if you guys got them. Oh yeah, because he's slim. Where do you get the skin?

You just have to stretch it. It'll be so tight. So and afterwards. I'd have tight breasts then. You'd have tight, tight breasts. But afterwards, if you got them removed, you'd probably be a bit stretched out. A bit stretched out.

A bit stretched out. But then I'm imagining that, like, you'd just have a lot of scarring, wouldn't you, when you had them removed? Yeah, and you've got to move the muscle. Like, it's so stupid. Anyway, he got the approval to go ahead with it and was going to do it. And then now he had a conversation

with a couple of people from the trans community being like, do you know how privileged this is? Like, do you know how hard we work to be able to get surgery to transform the bin? And he's changed his mind now. But it's just, grow up. Yeah, like, come on, dude. Grow up.

So he's 50 years old. I mean, like, I'm all for having fun, but yeah, the breast implants. Come on, the prank stuff, that was all like 2000s. Yeah, a little bit. And if you see his girlfriend, she's super hot.

Where do you think she was the one that was like, come on, mate, calm down. Yeah, he's saying it's some conversation with a trans person. He needs to be like Johnny Knoxville. He's always in movies. Johnny Knoxville did the latest Jackass movie. Yeah, he did. But he's had serious acting stuff, though, eh?

Has he been in serious acting? He's in a couple. He did that movie, The Ringer, where he pretended to have a disability throughout so he could be on a special need. Okay, so they're all a bit still about this stuff. They're all a bit stuff. I think they've hit their heads too many times.

But Johnny Knoxville's got a podcast now. Right. I listened to a couple of episodes. They all do. And a woman that grew up in an extreme Mormon household. Okay. And their podcast is about talking to people who have done like extraordinary things. Right. Yeah. Okay. I think they talk to that guy

remember the guy that jumped from the edge of space from the Red Bull? Yep. Oh yeah. Yeah that sort of stuff. No thanks. Yeah. Well I mean at least Johnny Knoxville's hot. Do you know what I mean? He's got that going for him. It's a bit sexy Johnny Knoxville. But what a nightmare to be with any of these men. Absolutely.

Especially if they come home with D-cup breasts. D-cup breasts. And you're like, are you serious? I've just been here cooking a roast, and you're just out there, you idiot. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn, and Hayley. Taylor Swift on ZM, Fletch, Vaughn, and Hayley. She endorsed Kamala Harris, put up a link to voter registrations.

Like 400,000 people clicked it. That made Donald Trump not tweet. What is he? True Social, his social media platform. All caps, I hate Taylor Swift. He said, I hate Taylor Swift. I hate Taylor Swift in all caps. Oh, my gosh.

That's not going to get votes. The world collectively adores her. Just to scream it into the nothingness. I know. So, Fletch, you listened to the whole debate. It was a great watch. She worked him into a bit of a lather. The way that she baited him.

Yeah. It was brilliant. So what was he talking about with these cats and dogs? So when he was asked about immigration, his claim, and these are false claims that legal immigrants from Haiti who moved to Springfield to fill jobs, and, you know, they're there legally. Normal part of how the world works. He claimed that they're eating people's dogs. And cats.

And cats, which is not true. Now, is before or after they're having transgender operations in prison? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. They're crazy. We're coming out with boobs and they're eating cats. I think now they're saying, oh, no, they're eating the geese.

Which, again, they're not eating the geese. But to be fair, the geese are there to be eaten. The geese are there to be eaten. There's some Canadian geese at the place next to ours. And I are there to be eaten. The geese are there to be eaten. There's some Canadian geese at the place next to ours and I reckon just a quick shot you'll leave yourself

a boiled goose. Do we eat geese? They're one of the most aren't they one of the most eaten? Okay, no one's eating the geese either. No one's eating

Who's eating geese? Are we eating geese? No one's eating the geese. No one's eating the geese. That's an old meat. Okay, well, Hank Azaria, who is the voice actor

for lots of characters on The Simpsons, Apu being one of them. No, he stopped doing Apu. No, but I'm just saying he did it. In Springfield, which is, again, where this is happening in real life Springfield in America. But in fake Springfield and The Simpsons, of course, the head of police, Chief Wiggum, is voiced by Hank Azaria. And after these claims of these people eating cats and dogs,

Chief Wiggum has responded. Springfield Police, Chief Clancy Wiggum speaking. How can I help you? People are eating dogs? What do you mean, hot dogs? Oh, cats. Mr. Cats is eating hot dogs. Now, people are eating dogs and cats.

People are eating dogs and cats in Springfield. Are they good? No, they're not eating cats and dogs in Springfield. No one's eating the cats or the dogs. This is such a good response from Hank Azaria, though, to pull out one of the most iconic Simpsons characters ever and just respond to respond to idiotic silliness with idiotic

silliness. Surely there's got to be a whole episode of The Simpsons. The turn around on The Simpsons is so long. It takes a while. South Park can make an episode. Didn't they say once they could make an episode in six days? Right. Their turn around was insane but The Simpsons animation.

Just because it's A process of it Right okay Yeah it takes Six months When's the next debate No he doesn't want to do it He doesn't want to Well he said

Don't want to I hate Taylor Swift I don't want to I hate Taylor Swift They're eating cats and dogs Play ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley Blah blah blah

Blah blah blah blah blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. This is the Top Six. Alrighty then. It's a beautiful airport, the Waikato Airport. Never been. You would have absolutely no reason to. And I assume never will. I once flew from Auckland Airport to Hamilton Airport.

Oh, Taylor Swift. I know. Call me Taylor Swift. Wow. That was a work thing because I was finishing working afternoons and I wasn't with you. I was going for work and so it was like a time thing. You had to get there.

But it really wasn't. I mean, I guess because of peak hour traffic, it might have taken you three hours to get to Hamilton or two and a half. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but you had to drive to Auckland Airport, go through the ridden air. And literally get up and land within 10 minutes.

It was the most Taylor Swift thing I've ever done in my life. I have felt bad enough on our flights from Auckland to Tauranga. You get up, you fly into Morrinsville, I'm like, hey, my hometown! And then you land and you're like, how much gas did we just get? Yeah. But anyway.

Well, Jetstar have announced that they're flying from Dunedin and Hamilton Airports to the Goldie. To the Goldie. This is great news. It is great. It is great. It's great news. Get the Goldie back. I've been to the Goldie for a few years now.

I've never been. Oh, you simply must. I know. You simply must. Gold Coast tourism, if you're listening. Oh, should we go do some roller... Oh, go with the theme parks. Oh, I love rollercoasters

I don't know it's just never happened and now I only go to Australia for work and it's always Melbourne yeah the Goldie is it rules

it's not like the rest of the parts of Australia do you remember that time we thought we could do all you can eat pancakes got us how many did you have

three because they don't give you the thick dry one. Yeah. And then you can only stomach three. And there's no, like, berries, moisture berries or anything like that. It's just syrup.

We went home defeated. It was embarrassing. Four you can eat. Three. It was embarrassing. It is embarrassing. So embarrassing. Hold on.

I'm just having a head furnace you here. I'm back, baby. How's that? It's back. Well, it's not plugged in. No, it was like these holes here and you put them in. Yeah. It's that? It's back. Well, it's not plugged in. No, it was like these holes here and you put them in. Yeah.

I got that. I got that. Do you reckon one day we'll get Bluetooth headphones? That'd be nice. That'd be cool. And Bluetooth microphones. I want to walk around

like I work in a call centre in the studio. Oh my God, you're a good place. Hello, Voon speaking. Yes. Yeah, let me just pop you on hold

and I'll go chat to my supervisor because that's above my grade. Oh, sorry, I'm not actually quite sure but what I'll do is I'll go chat to my supervisor. I'll just go get someone. Because that's above my grade. Oh, sorry, I'm not actually quite sure, but what I'll do is I'll go talk to my supervisor. I don't know why I started talking like this when I started working in the call centre. I don't know, but I really like it. I like this character. 13 years since international flights have departed Hamilton.

Oh, God, that's great. A proud history of trans-Tasman travel from beautiful little Hamilton Airport. Well, I've got the top six signs that person that you see on the Gold Coast is from Hamilton. Because they're going to be there, baby. They're going to be there in their numbers. Number six on the list. Somehow they're drinking a Waikato draft. How'd they get it there?

And they might be, after the first couple of days, be limping a little bit as the new jandal just gets used to sitting and snugging there between the big toe and the next toe. Bit of a rub. Yeah, it's a rub in the webbing. First Birkenstock wear of the summer.

If not, I'm happy to... All right, we'll do a top seven. Oh, no, no, no, please. Oh, why isn't that on your list? I don't it is. If not, I'm happy to... All right, we'll do a top seven.

It's, honestly, dads love a photo with the Gold Coast Meta Mates. What do they do? They just walk around. They walk around for dads to take photos with. And they top up your parking meter so if you run out of money, you... Yeah. It's like Hooters girls. That's what they look like.

Yeah, basically, yeah. We did a promo on the Gold Coast once and we played mini golf against the Gold Coast Titans NRL team and the MetaMades were our cheerleaders. It was a whole thing. Oh, that's a whole thing, isn't it? It was a whole thing.

Different times. Different times. It wasn't that long ago. It was a little while ago. Put money into parking meters which might otherwise expire preventing vehicle owners from incurring a fine.

Fly from Auckland to Hamilton to fly from Hamilton to the Gold Coast. When you could have just gone Auckland to the Gold Coast, but these things happen. No, I want to enjoy the new flight. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the next up, sis. Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey.

Play ZM. You may have seen this online. It's gone viral in the last few days. An Arizonian, 32, has had problems with sinuses and breathing for decades, according to them. Plays a lot of people. And was

in the shower and had a huge sneeze and heard a little tink tink on the shower floor. And that is when a tiny yellow Lego cap, like a button piece. Like a button piece.

Yeah. Was on the shower floor. And that's when it all came flooding back to them, that they do remember as a kid putting it in their nose. So as a child. As a child. How many years had it been in there? They're 32, and they said decades.

So it must have been in the. It says in the 90s. Oh my God, like over 20 years. Yeah. So they would have been like single digits, kid. Do you remember, you just used to shove things everywhere. One more time. What did you say? I remember.

The nose is a good one though because you do smell things and if they're small enough, straight up there. And then as a kid you're small enough, straight up there. And then as a kid you're always like, oh, I can't say anything. I remember I used to suck on coins and stuff and swallow them and be like, oh, I know, manky. Yuck. But I remember sucking on a five cent piece. Oh yeah, the little ones.

Yeah, little ones. R.I.P. Showing my age. And then it's like going down my throat and me being convinced I was going to die and trying to work up the courage to go upstairs and tell my parents that I had swallowed this coin. You're just shoving

things in all the time. Up the nose terrible, in the mouth But this worked its way back far enough. And how is it that this was finally the sneeze that dislodged it? I know. God that would be a good sneeze. Like it doesn't say if they'd gone to the doctor over the years.

Like surely they would have got that little... Light up there. Yeah, the light up there. I reckon when you're a kid and sometimes the figure goes up there but it's not immediately like causing discomfort or inability to breathe, you probably just don't tell your parents because you don't want to get in trouble. Yes, exactly. And then you just sort of get used to living life

with that up your nose. Oh, I bet that would have felt good now. I bet there's some full... Have you seen those clips for snorers? And instead of... It holds the... It holds the nostril wider? Yes.

With a magnet on the... You put it in and then you put a magnet on the outside which goes... I got 10 years of advertising for that over the weekend for the first time ever. And what? It opens your nose bigger. It opens your passage wider. Does that feel weird though when you're sleeping?

I don't know. You probably get used to it. Like a mask or anything. Yeah. As long as the magnet wasn't too hard. You can get your finger caught between two magnets. It can hurt. Yeah, but you don't want to like...

What if you like go to itch your forehead and your watch sticks to your nose? Yeah. Or it wipes your credit card. Yeah. You get your credit card near your face. Or, yeah, you get stuck to the fridge. All things to consider.

Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly little poe. Silly little poe. It is so silly, silly, silly little pole, silly little pole. It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole.

Today's silly little. I like poles. I like them silly. Yep. And I like them little. Silly little pole. Do you pre-rinse your dishes? Now, listen, I have worked with renowned New Zealand chef,

Chef Peter Gordon, O-N-Z-M. Yeah. Okay, he's been recognised by the Queen herself. He's not a world-renowned dishwasher, though, is he? Yeah, Peter Gordon's not on dishes anymore. Every chef starts on dishes, and he said to me that you shouldn't pre-rinse them because something about the detergent detecting it, and I was like, okay.

Detergent doesn't detect it. It sounds counterintuitive, but detergents work better on dirty dishes. The enzymes in soaps are designed to attract themselves to dirt particles and be rinsed away. However, if dishes are thoroughly rinsed, they have nothing to attach to, and your expensive cleaning products will not be effective. But it's still cleaning it. I just don't want, like, you know, like, say, for example,

you've got a plate with gravy and mashed potato. Yeah. Yeah. You're going to rinse it and then put it in the dishwasher. You don't want your dishwasher full of peas and porridge. Porridge bowls is glue, isn't it? Yeah. And it goes hard, so you've got to get it off.

And then the reason I do it, I'll rinse any kind of plate that's got anything on it, because then I can use the 40-minute setting on my dishwasher. Otherwise, it's a two-hour cycle. Have you tried the dishwasher sheets? No. No, not yet. The little sheets of detergent you fold them up and you put them in. They're actually pretty bloody good.

Okay. Yeah. There's so many articles online. I hate to be this person saying that you don't need to do it. I mean, sure, if you had like big chunky bits of vegetables and stuff, take those off. I just, if you don't, I'm not getting it. Yeah, I'm not getting on a short wash.

I'm not getting a thorough clean. Okay, so what do the people say? Yes, 73% of people said yes, they'll pre-rinse their dishes. 27% said no. There are children in Africa who would love that water that you've wasted. God, I've just become my mother. It's insane. And then I'll answer you the same way I answered my mother.

Should we put it up and send it to them? Yeah, sure. I can collect it all if you want and we can pop it in the post. Pop it in the post? Pop it in the post, Africa. Attention, Africa. Yeah. Here's my dishwater I didn't use.

Yeah, I once poured peas into an envelope And wrote on them to Africa And I got a hiding I bet you did you smarmy little boy Hayden says the dishwasher is designed to handle it Would you pre-wash your car before going through a car wash? No I'd give it a rinse I haven't been through a car wash for ages

That actually cleans your car Oh my god I thought about it yesterday My car is covered in poop. I parked under a tree. Oh yeah. You've got to hand wash that. It's a hand wash.

Nah. At the best, it's one of those pull under the ones and start pumping $2 coins into it and selecting what you want the brush to do.

Also, you're driving a car that doesn't need to be clean. This is what I think. But you are wasting money putting your car in a car wash.

I totally agree. The car sucks regardless of whether it's clean or not. Like, when it gets to a certain age or look, there's no point caring. And who cares? The colour of your car is the perfect colour for not ever having a washer. White cars, no good. Black cars look dirty the minute you've cleaned them. They're your first bit of dust.

Grey. Dark grey. Who cares? All sorts of sins. Lamest colour car. Earl says, got to get the food chunks off. It's a dishwasher, not a dish scraper.

Yeah, good, good. That's a great little take there, Earl. Washing machine filters are not fun to clean, said Alicia, so I will always rinse. Yeah. Because I watch TikTok

and it's how it works and there's a rinse cycle at the start, so I don't, says Bronte. Just watch TikTok. That's where I go for all my life decisions.

When has TikTok ever lied? Rochelle, yes, I rinse because I'm not a savage. No one wants to open a dishwasher and see somebody else's dregs caked onto a plate or on the bottom. It's embarrassing. To get most of the grub off, a cold rinse prior, but a hot wash when it's in the dishwasher, obviously.

Timmy said, of course I'll rinse it on, but a monster with rocks on my head. No. Great. Timmy? He the dishwasher obviously Timmy said of course I'll rinse it on but a monster with rocks on my head no great Timmy Timmy's sensible Timmy's a sensible boy

he's got brains in his head not rocks because it's literally science modern dishwashers don't require a pre-rinse says Trish and I imagine Trish's Trish's grate at the bottom

is full of all sorts of I reckon you do have to give it a I reckon you pull out Trish's filter it's got a couple of peas and some corn. Potatoes. And chicken skin.

Yeah, some chicken. A chicken bone even. That skinny little bone that's on the side of the drumstick, you've got to watch out for. Yeah. Yuck. Only if it's a sticky bugger like egg yolk, says Todd. So he's rinsing on... Depending.

Yeah. Yeah. Depending on what, you know, is stuck to the plate there. Again, Todd, sensible. There's some sensible listeners here. There's a sensible board. There's Todd, sensible. Some sensible listeners here. Some sensible people on that silly little pole. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Well, I've got bad news. I'll rip the bandage right off. Okay. Blindfold off. Isn't it? And then the band nodes rip the bandaid off. Yeah, the bandaid.

I'll take off your blindfold. I'll take out the ball gag. I'll unchain you and then I'm going to give you some bad news. Okay. I don't want a sticky blindfold. It's not off your blindfold. I'll take out the ball gag. I'll unchain you, and then I'm going to give you some bad news. Okay. I don't want a sticky blindfold. It's not a sticky blindfold.

If I'm being blindfolded, you don't need to rip it off. You can slip it off. Slip it off the blindfold. I'll untie the blindfold. You rip it off because it's sticky. Here it goes. Yep. Chocolate's going to keep going up in price.

Oh. And the last year, apparently the average price of a 250-gram block of chocolate was up over 20% in one year. Yep. And they were the main part of the reason that grocery food prices were up 2.4% in a year. Everything else had kind of stabilized a little bit. But chocolate was the thing that kept going and dragged it up because we love our choccy. Yeah. It has been driven by wholesale pricing from the suppliers, global commodity costs.

For cocoa, it was way up because there's supply shortages, the whole situation, the climate change. Yeah, right. The farmers that grow the cocoa. This is why when you see your favourite blocks on special, because, you know, supermarkets will do them as loss leaders quite a bit. Are you going to say stock up? You get a couple of blocks.

No you can't. If it's in the pantry it's going to go in my belly. Like there's no holding on to a block of chocolate for a rainy day. Unless you can take it home and put it in a time release safe.

Oh. So it only opens that's like a bank one. Yeah it only opens once every two weeks or whatever and if you're not there to get it

you miss out for another two weeks. Hang on, I've just googled time release safe for the home. That's perfect. There's a lot of places Harvey Norman that looks like maybe one you could have on a

Where are the safes in Harvey Norman? Yeah, they've got them at Harvey Norman. Kogan online, Mighty Ape. But are these just standard safes I can get into at any time? Because I don't want that. I want a time release safe. It needs to not be my choice. Yeah.

Well, you could get your partner if you trust them more. No, I don't. With the chocolate. Amazon, do a time release safe. But yeah, I mean, if you've got the app or the key, then you know you can get into it at any time, right? I don't need a hell of a lot of chocolate. It's not my go-to sweet.

I like lolols. Okay, so this is one, a kitchen safe. It's a time-locked box with timer. So you've got to... Yeah, see, that's what I'm talking about. That's what it's like. It's called America's number one habit breaker, mini. I suppose you could put anything in there.

You could put your phone. Your durries, your phone. Your phone, yeah. Anything. Your durries. Your durries, your phone. Your phone, yeah. Anything. Your durries. And that's only 51 US. Your Jagermeister. Your durries.

So, I mean, there you go. You could time lock your chocolate for a week. Is it going to stop or is chocolate going to become one of these things that is just like... A bit like... Just for the rich. There's no sign of it stopping. Just for the rich. Great.

Well, poor people can have awful chocolate like Mr. Beast's chocolate. It has five ingredients, and I tell you what, it needs a hell of a lot more. It needs a bit more yum, eh? Mr. Beast's chocolate. All right, that thing is thin. Oily. Oily. Lots of oil in that.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bad Advent calendar or Easter chocolate is not good. It's exactly what it tastes like, advent calendar chocolate. But like I always see people buy that at the supermarket. Like there's – Yeah, because he's popular. Because he's popular, yeah. You've got to go for it.

Better chocolate out there. Yeah, you get a bar of Mr. Beast chocolate, you wash it down with some Logan Paul Prime drink, you've got yourself a wonderful little Gen Z snack. You know me, I like my Whittakers, I like my Linda Titter. Yeah, it's good stuff. Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM.

According to a survey last year of 1,000 Gen Zers, 57% of them said that they wanted to be an influencer. That was their number one job. Number one job. The majority of them. And... What were, like, the real jobs after that? Were there any real jobs that they wanted?

I don't know. That's not in the article. I'm talking about the number one job. And so influencer, like, that wasn't an option, right? Career day at high school. No, not for us. Not a thing. And it's great. I always think about this, that, like, that wasn't an option, right? Career day at high school. No, not for us. Not a thing. And it's great.

I always think about this, that, like, oh, it's so exciting. These jobs, you know, the job that Vaughan's kids might have might not even exist yet. Or they'll do hair. And that's also fun. Yeah, because that's the one. Okay, so that's interesting. I've never heard AI or robots saying, oh, you will be able to cut hair.

Yeah. What? They'll be able to? Yeah. Would you trust a robot? I don't know if I'd put my head. They've got these robot machines that do haircuts. Really?

Yeah, I know. I wouldn't trust that. I would never trust it. I mean, I don't even have hair and I wouldn't trust that. I mean, you don't want to be putting your head into a bladed machine, do you? No, thanks. No. But, like, jobs that were available to us are just, like, your obvious jobs.

You would never think about being something like an influencer. And then all these influencers are coming in being like, yeah, looks cute, but that's the whole job is to make it look good and fun. But it's not. It's like seven days a week and editing this, your own videographer, photographer, promoter, this, that, that, manager, da-da-da-da-da. And sometimes you don't even make that much money.

And it's like an extension of that, I guess, it's like those people that do Only Fans that have to employ people to message and make their videos and stuff. Oh yeah, if they're really popular. Yeah, but they get to play with themselves. Yeah, but then that becomes a job too, Vaughan.

Well, you've got to keep it all trimmed down there. You've got to deal with ingrown hairs and you're like, well, that's a whole week. I've got to deal with this thing. Well, our two Gen Zers, our producers, is this something that you aim to... Yeah, I mean,

I'm quite happy being friends with you guys. I feel like it's the Gen Z attitude of I don't have to do any work, but I get your leftover goodies. We get free candles a lot, don't we? Yeah. And I do enjoy getting your scraps. The scraps.

Yeah, we do give them the scraps sometimes of our influencer goods. Yeah. So I think yes, but I'd rather not do the work and still get the goodies. Yeah, that's fair. Karwin? No, not really. I feel like it is. It's a job.

So even though it sounds like it would be more fun because you get free stuff, I mean, I get free stuff doing a job. That's cool. I get paid and then I buy the stuff. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, I know what you mean. I know what you mean.

I think it's, I mean, that's not free. That's just how capitalism works. That's how buying things works. If you're an influencer, you just get free stuff to post it you don't get any money well sometimes some of them do i've done a little bit of stuff here and i mean i've got we did some i've done some influencer stuff for my house and it's always like it is great when you've got brands that align with what you're doing but it's a lot of work yeah like a hell of a lot of a work like wanting to make videos and whatnot, especially when you're not I'm not particularly good at it either

No, no, what do you were reviewing my content just then? Yeah, I said I'm not particularly good at it and you see nah now you take good photos. Yeah good photos of your yeah You do, right? Looks great. Yeah, but yeah, I mean you're midst of a reno and everything's going crazy And then and then you've got to make these videos. Yeah, this reno couldn't have gone worse. And be like, hey guys, here's the transformation of the room that absolutely destroyed my life.

Enjoy. Here's the before and after. We painted it three times because we're never going to get the killer eye. And also, yeah, you just have to keep up that appearance. Like, you only follow influences because you go, oh, I want to have their life. Like, oh, my God, they make everything look so good. And so it's a lot of lies as well, I think.

A lot of people lying on social media. This is my hot take on social media. It's not all that it looks to be. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Out on a school night tonight. I hate when bands do this And it's because they'll always give the weekend to Australia Yeah, I know

And then they come over here and they're like You get Monday or Tuesday We get their Monday or Tuesday sloppy seconds We're going to Troye Sivan later in the year And that's on a Monday Yeah Don't they know? Don't they know that we get up at like 4.30 in the morning?

Don't they know that everyone has work the next day? Yeah Whatever Punish through it You'll get through it I'll get through it Don't they know that we get up at like 4.30 in the morning? Don't they know that everyone has work the next day? Yeah. Whatever. Punish through it. You'll get through it. I'll get through it. It's fine.

It's fine. It's fine. And it's a band that I've wanted to see for ages. I'm going to Iron Maiden tonight. And you know that I'm a bogan and it's fine. You are. Hayley, you are actually probably the most undercover bogan I know. Yeah, yeah, totally.

I pose as someone who owns a home and loves fashion. And then I'm like, but also Iron Maiden. And the besties coming up from Wellington, Jared's coming with us. We're going to have a great night. Now, my best friend Jess sent me the playlist. You know, they always get, they make them on Spotify, Apple, all that. There is an amazing website I always use, setlist.fm.

Right. And it is like the number one website for playlists. Yeah. For touring bands. And it will average out like for their current tour. Yeah. The setlist. And it will tell you like, you know, the percentage of older songs, newer songs. It's amazing.

Oh, yeah. I'm on it now. Popular setlist. Look at Linkin Park, because they've got the new singer, Pearl Jam, Post Malone, Bruce Springsteen. So you can just go on

and see what they're playing. Because sometimes they make little tweaks. Yeah. Right? Well, I hope that's the case tonight. Because Iron Maiden, one of these like classic old rock bands, and you go,

sure, maybe you've made new music in the last few years, but we're there to see the classics. Yeah. They are not playing their biggest songs. She sent me the set list saying, here you go, here's the set list. Brace yourself.

Try not to be disappointed. And this is your big thing. This is your pet peeve. This is my big thing. They're not playing. I mean, even if you're not an Iron Maiden fan, which I imagine many of our listeners aren't, Run to the Hills.

Run to the Hills. Everyone knows that song. It's on rules. They're not playing't. Run to the hills. Run to the hills. Everyone knows that song. That's on rules. They're not playing it. Number of the Beast. They're not playing it. That would be like the killers not playing Mr. Brightside. Exactly.

It's the equivalent there. Yeah. Yeah, that's their biggest song. You know that. I got soul, but I'm not a soldier. So I just, it puts a bang on my bonnet when bands do this. I hate it. You know, look, we're there to support you.

We like the band. But we're also there to listen to the classics. But you can see, I can see, I can also understand from their point of view why they do it. Because they have been touring for decades. I know. And it would be so mundane and boring. It's not mundane and boring to us because we're going to one night, one show in our entire lives.

And they'll be playing this since like the 70s or the 80s or whatever. But you know what? Like suck it up. That's why you are where you are is because everyone in that crowd is a fan. Yeah. And they're there for the songs that they want to hear.

They want the songs. So play the songs. Like I went to ACDC years ago. They didn't play like some of their big ones. They played all their new album. They want the songs. So play the songs. Like, I went to ACDC years ago. They didn't play, like, some of their big ones. They played all their new album. Everyone was like, boo. And then you were looking up artists that were, that, you know, don't play their biggest songs.

Madonna's done it before. Nirvana used to not play Smells Like Teen Spirit. Which is why. But then that was kind of like an anti, they didn't like the fame. They were anti everything. Everything that kind of brought them. If you don't like the fame. We're anti everything. Everything that kind of brought them. If you don't like the fame, we'll give the money back. Yeah.

I think it's poor behaviour. I think it's poor behaviour from these artists. Was it Radiohead? Radiohead played a lot of their big songs. Didn't play their real big songs from the 90s live. I was about to say, imagine if Taylor Swift, but then arguably all of her songs are big songs. I know.

You're like, oh, okay. But it would be, I guess it would be like if you went and saw Taylor Swift in 20 years. Yeah. And then she's like, I'm just playing my new albums and I'll play like Love Story, maybe.

Maybe, but no Shake It Off. Yeah. Anyway, it's going to be an enjoyable night, but I just hate when bands do that. I hate that too. It sucks.

Do you reckon I could yell for it? No. Play the classics. It's not like they've forgotten. Yeah. How to play a song that they should have been

playing for 30 years. Is it because he's so old they can't hit the high notes? I was running, run for your, maybe you can't do it anymore. Get a backing track or something.

Yeah. Yeah. You can't really be a rock band and get called out. It's pretty embarrassing. You'll be kicked out. You'll be kicked out. Instagram reel at the weekend

of that Frankie Vela dude. Is that Frankie Vela? From, um, uh. Jersey Boys. Yeah'll be kicked out. You'll be kicked out. Instagram reel at the weekend of that Frankie Vela dude. Is that Frankie Vela? From... Jersey Boys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All that music. Yeah. And I didn't even think he was alive.

No, no. They've like wheeled him out, propped him up. I think he's pumped with formaldehyde. And he just like holds the mic. His mouth doesn't even move. Like he's obviously, it's a backing track, but his mouth, it looks like an animatronic thing. Why are they doing that?

He needs money. I don't know. I don't know, the whole thing looked like elder abuse to me. Oh, Sherry baby! Somebody needs to investigate that. Oh, that's sad. I think his family's trying to squeeze every last drop of money out of him. That's really haunting. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Well, apparently the new celebrity baby naming trend is just to have a boring... Human name. Human, everyday baby name. But what constitutes a boring name? Like a traditional name. Not symbols.

What was Elon Musk? What was it? Jesus. Quadratic equation, I think. Yeah, that was out of control, wasn't it? Apple was the famous one. Who was a bear? Gwyneth. Gwyneth was out of control, wasn't it? And there was Apple was the famous one. Who was a bear? Gwyneth.

Gwyneth. Did she have a bear? Gwyneth was Apple. Oh, Gwyneth was Apple. Who had a bear? Someone named their kid Bear. Or was that another Elon Musk? Bear Grylls.

Bear Grylls. Bear Grylls. Bear Jr. BJ for short. Right. Well, so apparently Justin Bieber, they're saying this is the one that started it, Jack. Just a normal, everyday Jack. Oh, so they're saying this is a new trend.

Liam Payne, beer. Liam Payne and also Alicia Silverstone's son's called Beer. Oh. Right. Who knew? Clueless. But they're saying this is a new trend But it literally started a few weeks ago Yeah

They have spoken to a baby name expert, Vaughn Who is saying that this is reflecting a yearning for stability, calm and familiarity With names like Jack, Olivia, George But those names have always been up there But that's for the everyday person, not the celebrities. Texomechanicus, Exodark, Ciderale, and X-A-E-A-E-X-I-I. Those are Elon Musk's children's names. Then, of course, there's North Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.

That's Kim's kids. Eerie and Stormy, That's Kim's kids. Eerie and Stormy. That's Kylie's kids. Apple, Blue Ivy, Kal-El, Pilot Inspector. These are some celeb baby names. Pilot Inspector, I don't know who that is, an actor. Moroccan and Monroe. That's Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon's kids.

Cricket Pearl and Birdie Lee. That's Busy Phillips' kids. Culture Kiari. That's Cardi B in Offset. I mean, they just went a bit crazy for a while. Lyra Antarctica. That's Ed Sheeran's. Well, I thought it was a bit like on the nose if your name is Jack, though,

because, you know, when they're saying celebs are now going boring and normal. But isn't Jack the spicy version of John? Is it? Jack was originally a derivative of another name. James. This is what I thought we could ask this morning. You listening now, dear listener,

do you think you've got a boring name? Oh yeah, have we got like a Jane Smith? Your middle name is Jane. Yeah, but it's spicy because my mum chucked a Y in the middle of it. And your last name is...

My brother's name is Philip Smith. That's got to be one of the most... One of the most... Straight up boring names. Philip Smith. John Smith. You met a John Smith every now and then.

Yeah. If you weren't blessed with a spicy last name, because spicy last name is a simple first name. Great partnership. Are we taking last names or just first names?

Or any of them? No, it's a combo of names. I think it's the combo. You give us your first name and then we'll judge it primarily just on the first name. Then you tell us the surname and we'll tell you if that makes things better or worse. How boring you are. Okay, well, I don't know. Maybe you're not happy with your name.

You think it's boring. Ben James. You wish it was spicier. We've got to have a Ben Roberts on our hands. A Ben. Yeah. We've got to have an Emma McKenzie. That's not boring.

That's not boring. That wasn't boring. That feels like some... Emma McKenzie. Yeah, some exciting Scottish ancestry. Yeah. Okay, well, based on the new celebrity boring name trend, do you have a boring name? Give us a call. 0800

dials at M. For example, someone text in my husband is John, his sister is Jane. Yeah. John and Jane. John and Jane. Terribly boring. Especially if the last name's Smith. Yeah, especially. Okay, 0800 dials at M is our number. Give us a call. You can text through 9696. Do you have a very

I feel like that's the kind of name they'd page that at the airport. Yes. A hundred women would turn up at the desk. Yeah, I'm Anna Johnson. Yeah. What about if you put a silent P in the front? Panna. No, silent.

Oh, Anna. Anna. Anna. Anna. Just to spice it up Just to be like, what's your name? Anna Spout P-A-N-N-A And they'll be like, Panna

Louise Louise Oh, wow, okay middle name. Jane. Jane Marie. Louise. Louise. Oh, wow. Okay. That's a classic name. Yeah. Okay. I don't know what to say. I've already given you the solution. Silent P in front of all of them. My partner's got an interesting name.

She's got all the names. She's Elizabeth Mary Charlotte. Oh, we love that. That's all the queens. Yeah, we're a royal. Classic names. A bit of a twerr in there. She'd have a nail. She would. Anna, thank you. Some more messages in. My son

I like to spice up. My uncle's name was Keith Alan Jack. Three first names. Three first names. Get a last name. Norman George Barber. Barber's kind of... It's kind of cool.

I quite like Norman. Yeah. Yeah. It's different, eh? George Barber. Barber's kind of. That's kind of cool. I quite like Norman. Yeah. Yeah. It's different, eh? Norman Barber. My partner's name is Jonathan David Smith. Oh, that is. That is.

That's got to be the most plainest we've had today. That's got to be the plainest. That's pretty boring. John David Smith. Alan Leonard Brian Gray. Yeah, that's pretty plain. We've had a Karen text in, but she's chucked a Y instead of an E. It's made it a little bit spicier.

A little bit spicier. I've got a friend, Karen, who's my age, and hers is spelt with an I. So people call her Karen, but it's not Karen. Play ZM's Fletch for the Daily. Play ZM. Got a lovely compliment on my parking. Ooh. Where'd you park?

Between two cars. Ooh. Parallel parked. Parallel parked. The family car, the Santa Fe. The big one. Which is bigger. Yeah.

And I pulled up alongside and did that thing where I'm like, I could just fit into that park. Nice. And I did. I nailed the angle first time, which isn't my usual parallel park. Usually I take a couple of, go in for a first one, sort of a recon situation. Yeah. This was just like nailed it from the start.

Just got the angle right. And of course had to just really curse the, just beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. When it's flat lining, you're like, I've still got space. You're using the beeps and the reversing camera. Yeah. Well, that's cheating. Well, no, I don't use a reversing camera because I find in a tight parallel park, a reversing camera can be a little, it'll put you off because of the shine of it.

Yeah, right. Mine is on the ground. My reverse camera, I don't use it either because it's pointed on the ground. It's of no use to me. What do you mean? Can it be moved? I don't use it either Because it's pointed on the ground It's of no use to me What do you mean Can it be moved I don't know Oh okay

Such a bad car right It's been pointing at the ground For so long You've never been like I've never used it It's the only car I've ever had That had a reverse camera in it Right

Now the cameras have like These insane bird's eye view Oh yeah You can go 360 It's insane Not in our car Okay Not in our car

It does have those lines That indicate where you're Going to end up But when you're on a tight parallel That doesn't work Those lines Get rid of them And so you did this park

And what did you Was the compliment from Sade Well no It was I dropped them off Yeah And then I went to find a park And this person just stopped

On the other side of the road And went down their window And I went down their window Expecting I don't know They I wasn't. That's my park.

Yeah. My bags eat it. Yeah. Something like that. Shouldn't be parking there. And they were like, I just got to say, well done.

They were like, you, I saw you up there. I was like, he's not even going to fit in there. It was one of those, you know those ones where you see someone

underestimate the length of their car and they back in and then they're like, no, I'm not going to, I'm not going to be able to get their nose in.

Knock him out and then they take off down the road. That's going to, I'm not going to get their nose in. I'm not going to. And then they take off down the road. That's what he was expecting because he was driving a smaller car. He wanted the park. I love when you see someone like you're at a bar or a cafe and you're roadside and then you see someone try to park like eight or nine or ten times and then they give up. And then they hoon off because you're in such a like palaver about it. Yeah.

I also love closely watching people parallel park around my car. Because what they don't know is, I don't really care if you hit it. Yeah. I don't like that car. But I'm always like, having a good look. If you're going to hit it. And they get nervous. Ride it off.

Because you're like, yeah, that's my car. Hit it hard. Hit it again. Hit it again. Spank me. Spank me. Spank it. You might finally be able to get someone to pay For that reversing camera That's not working

Yeah be like Oh my god they hit it They knocked it Let's get that replaced On insurance Congratulations Going into the week Hot off a

The sort of con woman I quite like That's for you Vaughn I thought you had An air of confidence Your shoulders are back You really Yeah

Puffed out chest Yeah yeah Something's changed You came in And you're like Look at me Look at me Look at me

This is great news. Yeah, I hooked up with the guy that complimented my part. Yeah? Then he got in my car and wow. Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. We went to the quiz night on Saturday.

Fletch bailed. We lost two. Yeah, went to the quiz night on Saturday. Fletch bailed. We lost too. Yeah, I bailed. I was sick. You bailed. You can hear how sick he is. You can hear he's ruined. Have you not seen all my tissues this morning?

He was a bit gruff when I came in this morning. Yeah, because fine friends. He was at the gym yesterday morning. Yeah, I actually felt good yesterday. Hell no, I didn't because I went to the quiz on Saturday. I had an absolute rot of a day on Saturday, though. Oh, nice. On quiz day.

A lot of rot. Well, our usual team was dwindling. Fletch was unwell. James is overseas. Mark and Jana had a 40th. It was dwindling. Yeah, the OG team. And this is like we won the quiz last year.

We won last year. We won best costume and we won the quiz itself. And so things weren't looking good. High expectations. Now, we called ourselves Pirates of the Cumubean. Our table went as Pirates. And then we brought Extended Gaggle along as well. And they went as 101 Dalmatians in Cruella de Val.

Played absolutely fantastically by our friend Matt.matians in Cruella de Val, played absolutely fantastically by our friend Matt. Did a great Cruella. No photos. Didn't want any photos. Who won best dress? The end of the night is a little foggy for me. I'm a little foggy.

Weren't you hosting? I think I was. So Vaughn did a great job of hosting. Right. This is, by the way, it's a fundraiser for your kids' school, isn't it? Yes. It's in the hall. Yeah. In the job of hosting. Right. This is, by the way, it's a fundraiser for your kids' school, isn't it? Yes. It's in the hall.

Yeah. In the middle of nowhere. And shout out to our old producer, Jared, who was on our team. And at one point at the end of the night, at the end of the night, and let me say there were some drinks on board, took part in a spelling competition and won. Oh, dude. It was impressive.

Now, that's private school education there. Yeah. I could have jumped up on stage. However, I couldn't see the steps. Now, we as a team, dwindling numbers, we had some ring-ins. We came third. I'm pleased with that. That's pretty good.

That's good. I mean, it's a medal, isn't it? We're on the table. We're on the podium. Yeah. We got a medal. So now over the last three years. When did you get the ponderous puzzle?

The answer was Lamington. You should have been there, Fletch. Yeah. We got a medal. So now over the last three years. When did you get the ponderous puzzle? The answer was Lamington. You should have been there, Fletch. You would have known straight away. Second round. Second round. Okay, good. And it was because one of the clues was that a New Zealand sock company and Lamington Socks sent me some socks once upon a time.

And I was like, what Kiwi sock companies are they? I was like, the only one I can think of is Lamington. And that ignited in Aaron's brain, oh, my God, it's Lamington. It's Lamington. So that was the answer. So we did quite well with that. I think we got some points there. We did buy, you know, one answer per round, which you can do to have money.

Well, you bought them. Raised money for the school. Yeah. Okay. But I think we did quite well. You did a great job hosting. I helped Vaughan with some of the auctions. Yeah, right.

As the night went on. But only third. Who won best dress? Was it you guys? No, it wasn't us. It wasn't you. Was it Croat? Was it the Dalmatians?

No, I don't think so. Okay. Yeah, I can't remember. God, it really sounds like things got a bit out of hand. This year at the end of it, they were like, we're going to clear the tables at the end, but have a bit of a

like you can stay in for a dance and stuff if you wanted. Yeah, it was pretty good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We created a real dance floor situation. It was a lot of fun

and money well raised I think. Money raised. Yeah. Those kids will be in morning assembly sticking to the floor. I hope they will be. I hope they got a mop.

Do they give it a mop? They'll need a mop. They need a deep clean And these are things schools have You remember that awesome thing schools have where they had lino hallways and it's like

Yes The spinning thing And the caretaker would be like Yes And it'd have a long cord See that's what they should have done

as a prize Have a term with that Yeah That'd be fun See how shiny and slippery Because then when they did it

and you had for a couple of days in socks, you could run into the slide in your socks. It was a bloody good night. I can't help but feel that maybe we would have done better if I was there. Yeah, probably. Aaron was genuinely disappointed when you weren't there because he was like, Fletch is the brains. And the penman, usually.

Yeah, I was the one that was writing the answers last year. Well, we shared that. Well, next year. Next year was writing the answers last year. Well, we shared that. Well, next year. Next year we can do better. We're coming back for that title. We'll see you there. People are upset online. There are Reddit threads upon Reddit threads upon comments

upon TikTok videos upon Instagram reels. Yeah. Addressing something we've been doing wrong our whole lives. Now, if you cook chips in the oven. I'm going to say right now that when you told me this, I was like, you're kidding me. You cook chips in the oven. When you cook chips in the oven,

and it says turn halfway through cooking. What do you do? We're pulling out the tray. We're getting the tongs. We're individually flipping all the chips. Oh, I know. I do it in a deeper thing, and I just shake it like that. Yeah.

That wrong. Apparently wrong. Apparently turn halfway through cooking means pull out the tray, turn the tray around and pop it back in. Why? You don't need, because the oven's got different, you get this when you're like different heat spots and it's to get there. And you're right because when you move a chip,

often the bottom will brown it. The tray browns it and the top browns it. So you don't need to be flipping your chips. And everyone's like, I've spent my whole life... Flipping the chips. Flipping the chips. Getting your tongs. Same turn.

Flipping the chips. Who said this is wrong? The internet war. Chip historian. Born the internet. The internet. Which member of the internet? The internet. Then, like, chip... This is from the UK. Chip historian? Born the internet. The internet. Which member of the internet? The internet.

Then, like, Chip, this is from the UK. Chip companies in the UK, like, who make hot chips. Oven fries. Yeah. Yeah, that's what it means. You don't need to be flipping your chips. 100%. This is like, turn halfway through cooking means turn the tray around so that you get an even bake.

Because all ovens have hot spots. Mine does it too. Okay, so I just googled Waddy's Fries cooking instructions and this is what it's brought up. I trust Waddy's. Preheat oven to 230, arrange frozen chips in a single layer on an oven tray and place

in the centre of the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, turning occasionally until crisp and golden. The tray. The tray. The tray. You're effing kidding me. It's the tray. I'm not effing kidding you.

It's the tray, not the chip. I mean, I haven't been individually tonguing the chips over. I just get a fish slice and I'd be like, blip, blip, blip. And flip them around. You would have a deeper sign for that, though, because I've got one of those flat trays. Oh, yeah, yeah. No edge, so I've got to flip individually.

Well, you guys just need to get air fryers. Grow up and get an air fryer, because they do chips and wedges and those little potato pom-pom things. Perfectly. I've got an air fryer, but it's so inconvenient. It's rammed at the top of my pantry because it's so ugly.

Yeah. I can't be bothered. Get it down next time you're going to do chips. Do some in the oven and some in the air fryer and I guarantee the air fryer will do better.

But you're missing the point. We've been doing this wrong our entire lives. Yeah. Are you kidding? So many people are messaging him being like... I don't think anyone's suffered. I think we've suffered.

Yeah, but imagine the time lost. Life is short. We're only here for a short time. And imagine how many burns on the top of fingers that have happened because you're trying to tong the chip. When you're so lazy, you don't pull out the tray. Are you going to pull out the oven? Don't pull out the oven.

I don't. I'm always like, I can do it. And I'll always keep my little tongs in there. It's like a game of operation. Except it's not a buzzer and a nose lighting up. It's a third degree burn. There's a burn right there along the top of my hand.

Like this. Someone on my effing god, I literally burn my fingers every time turning every single chip. Well, you don't. You just need to turn the tray. Rotate the tray. Rotate the tray. Rotate the tray. Rotate the tray. Or just get an air fryer. Or just get an air fryer.

Or just go to the local fish and chip shop. And then got the air fryer. And now I love the air fryer. Yeah, you're a big air fryer man now. I love air fryer. I'm going to tell you, man. If I'm having fries, if I'm having chips, I want them deep fried. Oven baked.

Well, like it's a health food. Get a grip. How deep fried? Like. Like double deep fried. Like double deep fried. Like double deep fried. Double cooked. Double cooked chips.

The Dutch that do that. And they chip a mayo with it. They know their stuff. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. I told you that we had to go on air and not eat. He literally just finished eating as well. He's making it out like we're just the two pigs who sit in the studio. No, I put my nuts down here because I knew we had to do

the fact of the day jingle because I'm professional. Are you ready now, Vaughn? Not yet. Well, I might have another one. Have another one. Well, it's just... I have one he's got a whole mouthful. I'm constantly working with brats. Wow, they're so vinegary. Hold on. Okay.

A little freshener than now. It's a buttery nut. Thank you. Are you ready? Woo! Hold on. Okay. A little fish into the mouth. It's a buttery nut. I got it. Hang on. Thank you. Are you ready? Are you ready? Because you're making the people wait.

Does anybody want to hit me smaller? So we'll listen to this. I'll run on the voice box. Ready? Nobody wanted to hear that. It's really yucky. It's quite yucky. Hurry up or I'm going to have another nut.

I'm ready to go. That's our yuck. Hurry up or I'm going to have another nut. I'm ready to go. Is that time for... Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. I got nuts on my face. Oh, for God's sake. I had nuts and I'm holding it together. Today's fact of the day. Well, the theme this week for fact of the day is fire trucks. Fire trucks. Because Thursday morning, in fact, this time on Thursday, we will know the name of the new Hawke's Bay Airport fire truck.

I noticed as well, when you go on to vote now, it doesn't show you the rankings. No. They're keeping it secret from us. We won't know. Now this is the naming competition that we hijacked, basically. Dame Judy Drench. Yeah. We're going down to Hawke's Bay and

I'll be so disappointed if we don't win. But that's just me. That's just where I'm at. I'd like to think we've got this in the bag. Voting's now shut. Voting is now shut. Yeah, it is. So we'll find out on Thursday. And we're going down to flying into Napier on Wednesday.

Won't it be cold? And we'll be broadcasting the show Thursday morning, live from the airport, from the Aero Club. Fantastic. So fire trucks. Today's fact of the day is that there is a difference between a fire truck and a fire engine. Oh. I've never even thought about that.

I thought it was the same thing, just different words. Same. A fire engine, by definition, is designed to carry 500 gallons or thereabouts of water and pump water from a hydrant. Yep. Whereas a fire truck is designed to carry ladders, special rescue equipment and other special firefighting equipment along with a ladder. Oh, right.

And then do the fire trucks hook into the water things? No. Fire engines hook into the hydrants. Are you sure? Fire trucks carry all the other stuff. We don't have both. Now, in New Zealand, we would have more fire engines Engines hook into the hydrants. Are you sure? Fire trucks carry all the other stuff. We don't have both. In New Zealand, we would have more fire engines

because we don't have huge high-rise buildings. Like New York have those fire trucks that are just ladder trucks. We've got that. Although there is a ladder truck in Auckland, isn't there? We've got that, yeah, in the city. Is it old? It does look old, yeah, it does. I think there might be a new one, though, as well.

Ooh, that's exciting. Because, yeah, every time there's like an hour alarm goes off or any of the apartments around. The ladder truck comes. And the ladder truck comes. But the ladder truck doesn't have hoses? I don't think so. Nah, he's just a ladder truck with a glimmer of people.

We're going to whack it with the ladder. Whack the flames with the ladder. Well, no, they work in conjunction. Useless. A fire engine can work without a fire truck, but a fire truck would very rarely go. Are you sure? I feel like they're all

just fire trucks. I think there's just one. Cat out of a tree. I think there's just one, so I think this is... I think we're combined. I think you're talking about America or something.

Yeah, I think you're confused. No, but what I'm saying is we can't call them, we shouldn't be calling them fire engines if they're the latter guys. That's a fire truck. Okay.

So what are we looking for when we say, oh my gosh, look. I'm not even looking at the trucks. I'm looking at who's driving it to be fair. You're looking at the firemen. Yeah, pumps. Yeah. To pump the water.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. From the hydrants. Exactly. That's a fire engine. That's a fire engine. I think there'd be way more fire engines in New Zealand than fire trucks. There would be. Well, I just don't know what you're doing,

turning up to a fire with no bloody water. Thanks. What do we call the ones where we take our own water? You know, you'll see those ones like rural places. Oh, you're like tankers. Maybe fire tankers. Those could be fire tankers. Yeah, maybe.

Those could be fire tankers. Because we don't have fire hydrants like in America, do we? Yes, we do. But they don't stick out of the ground. Where are they? Free hits. They're free hits. The free hits are fire hydrants. I was just thinking of the red ones don't stick out of the ground. Where are they? Free hits. They're free hits. The free hits are fine hydrants.

I was just thinking of the red ones with that come out of the ground. Oh, no, we don't have those. We don't have those. Yeah, we've just got free hits everywhere. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, free hits and SV stop valve. That's not for the firefighters. That's something to do with water, like the town supply.

I don't know. I tried to look up FHNZ, but it's just Fulton Hogan. Now, that's not what I was looking up. Well, maybe fire hydrant. I just want to see what's under it. If you pulled up that can. Well, it's a little thing and they click into it. Yeah, is it a tank, though?

Where's the water supply coming from? It comes from the ground. From the earth, the water supply. No, yeah. Is it drinkable? Town supply. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, it's just normal water.

I think it's the same stuff. Yeah. That's why when they try to put out a fire and it fletches off his horrendous town supply of water, it actually works the fire worse. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because somehow it's got oil in the water and it's flammable. My water is fine.

It's beautiful water. I think they've done some fracking right where your water comes from. No, they haven't. I've never tried to put out a fire with thick oil. It's like a coconut oil. It's thick, man. Okay, do you want some firefighters to message in? Okay.

Firefighter here, this fact is very American. I knew it. I knew it. It doesn't apply in the same way. Jono's called up, ex-firefighter. Good morning, Jono. Hi, how you doing? Good question.

Were you ever in the calendar? No, no, no. He sounds like it. I wasn't blessed with my looks. Oh, right. You sound hot. Yeah calendar? No, no, no. He sounds like you. I wasn't blessed with my looks. Oh, right. You sound hot. You sound like you should be in a calendar, Jono. Okay, well, that's a nice compliment for you today.

Now, set us right with Vaughan's fact, because we can't start Fact of the Day week about firefighters. With fire trucks. Fire trucks. With our engines. Silly fact like this. So, no, it hasn't changed since I've been out. So, New Zealand's got two kinds of trucks.

It's a seven truck and a one truck. So, your seven truck is your rescue truck, which has got all your cutting gear on it and all that sort of stuff. It all does have a tank with water supply on it. They still can fill up from fire hydrants and everything, but it's just a lot less water than the one truck, which is predominantly used for house fires and vegetation fires and that sort of stuff.

Right, so there are two different types of trucks. But we call them one truck and seven truck. So ours, sort of we'll give it away to where I was, but ours was 811 and 817. So our 817 truck was the one that would go out to car accidents and things like that, that you need the rescue gear. And 811, it was our water truck, basically. But what's the one with the big ladder on it?

What's that one? Is that a whole different one? Well, they've all got ladders. They've all got ladders. one is that a whole different letters um but the the bigger letters are generally on the one trucks um okay but then the biggest cities have also got your big broncos and stuff with that's the one that we used to see yeah that's the siren okay fully grown men would run to the window to see which fire trucks are going yeah so Okay, so this is quite embarrassing for Vaughan, really, isn't it? Because you've really Americanised facts of the day.

Ones and sevens. The eight one at the start, was that your, like, station code? Yes. Gotcha. Right, okay. And, Jono, just while we've got you, when you cook chips in the oven, do you flip all the chips or do you just rotate the tray?

Oh, he's got to rotate the tray yeah so he's been doing it right he's a smart man thank you jollo smart man hot voice i wonder what is what do you do now that you're not a firefighter uh i actually own the company now so okay yeah about five years you want to give it a plug? Oh, yeah, why not? Unless it's a secret company. It's your business. It's legal. We could do with more work if people are listening. HCM Property Maintenance.

Oh, right. Okay. We're in the Manawatu. Right. Beautiful. So if somebody, like, accidentally put a hole in the wall at a party at the weekend, you'll kind of fix that up? Yeah, bro.

Yeah, bro. That's good stuff. No shortage of work in Palson Hall. A lot of parties, yeah. Thank you, that up. Yeah, bro. Yeah, bro. That's good stuff. Yeah, no shortage of worth in Poulsen. No. A lot of parties, yeah. Thank you, Jono. Okay, there you go. Well, do you want to redo your fact of the day?

No, I don't think I do. Well, it's not quite accurate, though. It's sort of irrelevant. Well, okay, today's fact of the day is there's two different... Very embarrassing. Jono gave you the fact of the day. Very informative. There's actually two types of fire truck in New Zealand.

There's the ones. And the ones with the big... Well, don't claim it. Like, you've come up with this fact. The ones. They'll have three

numbers. The first two are the air station code and then the last one. One is the big tank guy and seven more specialisers and car rescuers.

I'm just taking another man's work. This is more embarrassing than calendar week. Don't take a breath. I'm ready to wrap this thing up, put a bow on it and have another mouthful of nuts.

Fact of the day, day of a relationship and have kids. Right? There's like so much to organise. You've got to work out this, that and the other thing. I mean, it's very common. Oh, extremely. Majority. It's almost like, why bother getting married in the first place? you've got to work out this, that, and the other thing. I mean, it's very common. Oh, extremely. Nowadays, yeah. Majority.

It's almost like, why bother getting married in the first place? Now, what people often don't, and then you've got like houses, and you've got a property, or your goods, your couch, who gets the mattress, all that kind of stuff.

But often forgot is what happens to the pet. Yeah. And now there's a rise in pet nups. Pet nups or pet nub, as Shannon would say. She thought it was a pre-nub. A pre-nuptial agreement. No reason why it was nub and not nup for nuptials. Yeah.

So apparently millennials and Gen Zs are more and more creating like pre-nuptial agreements or, you know. Even if they're not getting married? Even if they're not getting married about what should happen to the animal if the relationship breaks down. And I've known, I had a friend who split up with a long-term partner. They'd been together for like 10 years or something. Yeah.

And they had two massive dogs, like big. I can't remember what they were. They were black. They weren't Labradors. They were naughty. They were naughty. Ate everything. Like ate the curtains, ate the shoes. Okay. They were naughty. They were naughty. Ate everything. Like ate the curtains, ate the shoes.

Okay. And then they did like joint custody. And apparently lots of people are doing this. Like split custody. Like you have kids one week. You have them one week. But with like dogs. Yeah, right.

Harder for cats because cats don't like moving around as much. No. Whereas dogs, at least you could. Yeah. Wow. I just, I mean, I know it would be sad to, like, say goodbye to a pet at the end of a relationship,

but you get over it. You think it's just better one person gets the animal? I think so. Why would you want to have this, like, sort of string? Both love the cat or both love the dog. What do you do?

I don't know. Well, you just, you come to some kind of agreement. You'd be like, the cat loves me more, I should have the cat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. With cats it's easy to tell. Would you put the cat to the

test of the love? What, and sit there and then see who it came to first? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tell the cat to choose. Do you want to live with mummy or daddy? You would know who it cuddles up to more. Does it always sit on your lap? Yeah, exactly. Well, that's hard to tell with cats because they just want food, really, don't they up to more. Like does it always sit on your lap? Yeah, exactly. Well, that's hard to tell with cats because they just want food really.

They jump. Like Rolly jumps. Like sometimes I'm the fave. Sometimes it's Aaron. It's, it's, you can't tell. Whoever fed him most. Or whoever's been around more or is giving him more attention or whoever fed him that morning. Like, yeah, they're so, they're so fickle cats.

Yeah. Anyway, I think we should get some messages and calls in on this what happened to the pet after the breakup because it'll be interesting people that have made these like long-term arrangements to co-parent a dog like were you sharing a dog like week on or month on month off now here's a great text and put it down problem sorted jesus that is someone's dark thoughts escaped. Sorry, I think you've texted 9696 with your dark thought. Oh, my God. Okay, that is very dark. Listen to this.

We do week on, week off with our golden lab and my partner, my ex-partner. No, it says my partner's ex. That makes it sound like they're doing week on, week off with a person as well. With my partner's ex. Oh, yeah, yeah. My partner's ex.

Oh, right. Oh, wait, no, no, no. They're the new purple. They're the new purple. Well, then my partner's ex. Oh, yeah, yeah. My partner's ex. Oh, right. Oh, wait, no, no, no. They're the new people. You're the new person. Ah, gotcha. Like, okay, so, like, I get it if it's kids involved. Like, you have to see, you know, your ex, right? And you have to hopefully have an amicable relationship.

But then, like, you have to see your ex just because you're picking up the dog? This dog. I know. No, no, no. That would be horrible. Well, I'm sure there's going to be all sorts of arrangements. Or maybe you, like, maybe it was a big fight. Like people fight over who owns this and who gets that.

Maybe it was a, maybe you went to court over the cat. Cat court. Wow, cat court. I hope there is a cat court, right? Yeah, and their little paw on the, not javelin. The Bible. Gavel. Gavel.

Gavel. Very different to a javelin. Okay, well Gavel. Gavel. Gavel. Gavel. Very different to a javelin. Okay, well, we want to take your calls. 0800 DALS at M. You can text through 9696. In fact, the judge cat wouldn't have a gavel. He'd have a scratching post. He'd be like, scratch, scratch, scratch.

Order in the court. Order in the court. Scratch, scratch, scratch. 0800 DALS at M. Text through 9696. What happened with the pet after the relationship broke up? Separating with your partner. What do you do with the pets?

Apparently the rise and the petting up. Petting up. Somebody messaged in saying we had a written agreement and it helped in court. Yeah. Wow. Okay, so people have done it. Okay, yeah. You put it in there.

I suppose as well, if you started the relationship with a dog, say, like I've got a dog, we get together. That's yours though if you break up. I don't know. Does it apply to the same rules, abide by the same rules as like the two year thing? You might have to cut it in half and give them half. Oh, shotgun front half.

I don't want the ass. Nah. I'm not taking the dog's ass. Or we're going down the middle. It's only fair. Split down the middle. You're only getting half a face. Yeah, that's fine. That's right.

Just always look at them from the side. My partner and I have been together for seven years and getting married next year. Before we got our dog, we agreed that if we broke up, he would keep the dog. He grew up with dogs his whole life, and this is my first pet. Oh, yeah, there you go.

He's the dog man. Oh, yeah, but once the dog enters your life, that's a different situation. That's a verbal agreement. Yeah. Dogs love man. Oh, yeah, but once the dog enters your life, that's a different situation. That's a verbal agreement. Yeah. Dogs love women. My ex told me to keep the cat since I gave it more attention than her.

So that's offload there. You've offloaded them on that. And you've also passively, aggressively told them that, yeah, you didn't get enough attention. Yeah. My ex-husband and I were together for eight years. I got the kids. He got the dogs.

Dogs, ashes. Oh, okay. Ashes. Oh, okay. Ashes of aforementioned family pet. I don't know why people keep ashes of their pet. Wouldn't you sprinkle them somewhere? We've sprinkled. There's a bit of it.

Even Lulu wasn't that. I don't want to talk about it. Lulu died. When was that? Start of this year? Yeah. Wild man. And you lost your cat, Anakin. Do you want to talk about that?

We lost Bear this year. Bear? Oh, yeah. Ginger Cat we lost this year and Anakin a couple of years ago. It's like he's lost your cat, Anakin. Do you want to talk about that? We lost Bear this year. Bear? Oh, yeah, that's right. We lost this year and Anakin a couple of years ago. It's like he's not doing a good job. What are they? What's he feeding them? It's like he's not doing a good job.

He's like neglecting them or something. Well, if you must know, Anakin was very old, 17. Lulu was 17 and Bear had brain cancer. Okay! Something's in the water at the Smith household. Yeah. Animals get to 17 and die. Man, what are they doing wrong?

What a negligent owner. Great deal on that property next to the old chemical factory. Yeah, I know. Someone messaged, when my ex and I split while living in Melbourne, she wanted to move to London. I opted to stay in Melbourne, so we separated. We'd brought her cat over with us from New Zealand.

Yeah. And when the topic came up... That's thousands of dollars. I moved Rolly to Auckland and it sucked. When the topic came up... Probably more of a cat than the situation. How dare you? My cat is the most beautiful thing in the world.

She suggested we give her up for adoption to a nice old lady after all this. I adamantly refused and I said I'd keep her more than a decade on. She's moved back. The cat's moved back to New Zealand with me, now firmly mine. I consider her my eldest daughter and big sister to three younger human siblings. I adore this little thing more than I do most people. That's cute.

That's worked out quite well. That poor cat has gone to Australia and back. If my wife and I ever split, I'd have to take the dogs because I'm the alpha and they don't listen to her. One's a 50kg mastiff and the other one's a 20kg staffie and she can't even walk them. That's serious business. You've got to have an alpha. You've got to be the leader of the pack. Somebody else saying, another person saying we do week on, week off with the pets.

Gosh. Just feels like a level of attachment that I wouldn't want to have. Yeah. Like come over to pet the cat. How are you? How's your girlfriend? You still like communicating?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then what? The cat's got to get in a cat cage every time? Cats don't like those things. No, they don't like those things at all. They don't like those things because that probably means they're going to get a thermometer

up their bottom at the vet. Some cats like that. We don't judge. I'm not here to judge anybody's cats.
