The ZM Podcast Network. The Fletchbourne and Hayley Big Pod. Treat yourself to McCafe coffee with my Macca's rewards. Good morning, welcome to the show. Fletchbourne and Hayley who are all here because we did not win Lotto last night. Nope. Do you know what I read yesterday they were expecting over 1.2 million tickets. Yeah, that's pretty crazy.

Like isn't that, like what's the cheapest ticket you can get? $15? $15? Or $12 if you buy your own numbers. Oh, yeah, $12. $12. Even still, what if, like, the minimum was $12 times 1.2? That's a lot.

That's a lot of money, right? That's a lot. And most people are getting those tickets with, you know, a strike and a powerball. I hit the $25s when they go big. Yeah. I'll get a $25 triple dip. Oh, I get a $24 power dip.

I don't want strike. But then strike last night was a million bucks. It maybe would have been worth dipping a toe. But I had 37 in mine, you see. I think about like eight people won that. Strike. It might have been even closer to 10 because I think they got like 100,000 each.

Oh, right. Oh, gross. Maybe eight or nine people and they got like 100,000 each. Oh, right. Oh, gross. Maybe eight or nine people and they got 1.2 or 1.1. You just wouldn't strike. You'd expect, if you got it, you'd be like, whoa.

But one lucky person in Paraparaumu has won $37 million. Unreal. That's a small place. Are you going to figure out who that is? It's a real mixed bag as well,

Paraparaumu. There's like cheap housing, but there's also like a bit beachy kind of. Yes. Carpity, high end. The beach there is beautiful. Coastal. Yeah. Beautiful beach.

Carpity coast. I think they're going to stand out like a sore thumb when they rock up in their brand new Audi. Driving the Audi down Transmission Gully. Yeah. Beautiful. I've got the top six ways to spend $37 million in Paraparaumu coming up on the top six. Speaking of winning money. Yeah.

Jeepers. Perhaps not $37 million, but there was a bit of a bank glitch that saw a number of people get away with some free money. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Yesterday Laura picking up a double pass to see Taylor Swift live in Sydney at one of her sold out shows.

She's going to take her friend Hayley. So we're giving away three double passes. Oh my god, I can't wait. Not you, different Hayley. Another chance today, make sure you're listening at 8, midday and 4 for those three Taylor Swift songs that you need to win the double pass. There is some photos of a...

Don't give me... You know every website asking if you can give notifications? Imagine if every website gave you notifications all the time. No. It's a no. It's a no for me. And where do those notifications go? Your browser, they just pop down the top.

I don't know that. Yeah, bookmarks it as well. Puts it in some sort of RSS feed. Yeah, I don't know. It just pop down the top. I don't know that. Yeah, bookmarks it as well. Puts it in some sort of RSS. Yeah, I don't know. It just keeps bloody harassing me. They love us. Anyway, there was a major tech issue with the Bank of Ireland that led people to believe they were getting out free cash.

What? At the ATMs? Yeah, this was ATMs all across Ireland. And there's all these photos of people absolutely lining up. And there was a way that they were able to access money from the ATMs that wasn't theirs, right? That they didn't have in their bank accounts. Oh, okay. So even though the Bank of Ireland say that they have a 500, so like about $1,000, 500 euro limit.

What, do we have a limit? On a withdrawal. Like 1,500 or something. Is that what it is here? Well, I tried to pay my rates last week, but forgot to take out the decimal point and tried to pay Auckland City Council $150,000. Jeez, Louise.

But I'm guessing it declined because it's like, are you sure? I was like, yes, wait, what? And it was like too much for one transaction. Yeah. I think I've got like a $10,000 transaction a day. But ATMs, I don't know. Yeah, right.

Okay. Surely can't get out much. What about our friends? You were at the pub with them and they got some notification from the bank that they had some suspicious credit card activity and they were like, oh, it's just a spam text. It's a scam. It was legit.

Someone's hacked their account. The bank said, oh, there's just literally like people with computers and the computers are just randomly producing debit card numbers, randomly producing expiry dates, randomly producing three code things and it runs at such a rate that every now

and then it just hits. What? So they don't even need, like, your account details? It's like a lot of, like, if you think of it like all those numbers being a lotto ticket, it's just like a machine randomly producing lotto tickets at, like, $100,000 a minute. Wow. How is this not happening more? Well, it is.

Oh, right. Apparently it is. Oh, okay. Scary, eh? Why? But then when they got a text saying, you know, your bank has detected a

scam or something, click this link. She was like, that's the scam. That's the scam. No, the other thing is a scam. So the Bank of Ireland, this was like ATMs all around the country and then so many people were lining up. They had ended up getting security guards in to like guard the things and be like, no, there's a technical

glitch. This is not real. This is not free money. And everyone because you had to put in your card to do it. Yeah, so they know who's taking the money. Everyone who took money is going to be debited this exact amount of money that they withdrew. Do you remember here in New Zealand, it was a long time ago that they'd

put in 20s into the 10 container? Yes. And it was giving people double the money. Because this was a thing. Oh, my God. Some of the ATMs, yeah, they had different denominations. I think they'd loaded the wrong money, currency, into. So, yeah, if you were getting out.

So people were getting double. Do you remember that? But then they made people pay it back. Yeah. Because they knew exactly who'd gone. Yeah, because if that happened to me, I'd be like, oh my God. And I'd just keep getting out more and more and more. Yeah, 100%.

Because you're only using half of your own money. At 11 past six, next on the show. We're going to talk about how you refer to yourself in your head. You're in a monologue. Yeah, there is a debate online about whether you use me or we're or they. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

When you think in your head about, you know, because we've all said before, we've got an inner monologue, right? That's kind of chatting to yourself the whole time. Is it chatting to you? I'm going to go brush my teeth. So you're going, I'm going to go brush my teeth. I should brush my teeth. And it's in my head.

Mine's Ron Howard from Arrested Development. And he's like, Vaughn is going to go brush his teeth. Wow, so you're in the third person. No, I say I'll go brush my teeth. I actually say let's go brush our teeth. So this is the difference. Do you? This is the debate that's on TikTok at the moment.

Are you using we, our or me, my? So you're we, our, like let's go brush our teeth. Let's go brush our teeth. We better go to the toilet. We better go to the toilet. I say that, we better go to the toilet. And you're we, our, like let's go brush our teeth. Let's go brush our teeth. We better go to the toilet. We better go to the toilet. I say that, we better go to the toilet. And you're going, I better go to the toilet. Wait, so you are referring to yourself in a monologue as the third person.

No, third person would be Vaughn's going to go. Oh yeah, Vaughn, yeah. This is like you're a couple of people. I'm secondary. There's one of you. So it's like you and your head and you and your physical being. Has it never occurred to you that we better go to the toilet? Do you?

Meaning you and yourself. Yeah. No. You and your being. You say I, I say I. Maybe I'm talking to my penis though because if I was like, I'm thirsty, I better go get a drink. I don't think I'd say let's go get a drink.

But if you want to go to the toilet. Let's get a coffee. I say that in my head. If I'm sitting playing PlayStation, I'll be like, let's go get a drink. But if you want to go to the toilet, let's get a coffee. I say that in my head. If I'm sitting playing PlayStation, I'll be like, let's go get a coffee. Let's pause this and get a coffee. Let us, as a multiple of you. Let's go and get a coffee. I'm always like, I.

But then so the animal, I just Googled 30 to 50% of people. This is from Psychology Today. A psychologist, Russell Hol holbert he's done research i bet he's only 30 to 50 percent of people have an inner monologue because then i remember reading an article about whether your inner monologue was dialogue or whether it was imagery or whether it was both like i don't have pictures. Yeah, because I'm... Nah. I'm pretty sure producer Jared, your MIDI

has only images or no images? No images. She's got aphantasia, I think it's pronounced. It's that singer, isn't it? I'm out of love. I'm out of love! Set me free!

She did well. When I'm out of love. I'm out of love. Set me free. She did well. She did. Like when I'm reading a book, like the first page is all words, but then once I'm in the groove, it's all like imagined in my head. Yeah. But with the MIDI,

it's just words. That's, I reckon people who read books and do picture it are always the ones disappointed in the movie adaptations because it's not how they imagine it. Yes,

you dream up the characters. So she doesn't have a monologue, just pictures? She's got the monologue, just pictures. Oh, right, okay. I don't think I can have pictures. I don't know. I think I've got both. I think I imagine it.

I think it's sort of like a rest of development. I'm imagining it, but also there's a narrator on top. But the wee, ow, I've never thought of that. It's so wild, Vaughan, that this is you. Or if I'm reading a book and I,

you know when you're reading a book and you drift and you're just like scanning the words but not really taking them in. There's a voice that goes, you're not reading that. And then I go,

look back, I go. This happens to me on stage. I'll be like performing and then my head will be like, man, this is crazy. This is going really well.

Well done. Or like, oh man, this is really wild. Look at these people. I don't know any of them. And then you're like, what am I doing? And then you're like, Hayley, no, no head will be like, man, this is crazy. This is going really well. Well done. Keep it up. Oh, man, this is really wild. Look at these people. I don't know any of them. And then you're like, what am I doing? And then you're like, Hayley, no, no, no, no. Get back in the moment.

Because I do, you remove and you get onto this autopilot, like you say, reading a book. I looked up like regarding referring to yourself as, I better go get a drink or we better get a drink. So it is both first person, but it's singular versus plural. Plural, yeah. Whether it's you're acting as a singular being or you believe, oh, you're some giant entity.

No, not omnipresent. More just like your subconscious is one thing. Yeah. And your physical being. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or somebody went to a dum-dum rural school and didn't learn plurals. Yeah, because plurals is more than this. I'd been to school.

You'd been to school and seen it? Yeah, but did you done NCEA? I done school. Did you done it? I done all the school. The little one, the big one? No, but you have a really great grasp of the seen and done in English language. Yeah.

I know. Yeah. So that's really weird that you don't do that correctly. Yeah. But it's not incorrectly. It's identifying. It's whether or not you split your physical and mental being or whether you are just one entity.

But that's why I can't meditate. I've tried. Same. I sit down and I'm like, my body's still. And then inside's like, what's happening here? Yeah. Are you panicking? What's happening?

Are we bored? Why don't we go back and think about that terrible thing you said to your mother that made her cry? Let's dwell on that for a while. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly little poe. Silly little poe.

It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little poe. Silly little poll. It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little poll. Silly little poll. Silly little poll. Silly little poll. Silly little poll. Yesterday, we brought you research. In fact, Shanley Pajamas, can you please tell me how many people voted in the silly little poll, please? Would you be able to send me through a screen cap?

Oh, yeah. Thank you, ma'am. Because a study of Americans had found that 19% of people believe that their job did not positively contribute to society. What they call bullshit jobs. Talked about this yesterday. Got a bit deep, didn't it? Yeah. Whether or not it's big or small, are you contributing in any way?

Or are you just shoveling shite for the man? Yeah. Okay, we had we had almost twice the amount of votes that this American study did. Okay. Oh yeah. Our polls are always fast spread. Whenever we read a study, it's always like, in a field of

two and a half thousand people, and then if we run as a single poll, we can double it, because that's the sort of power we hold. We wield power. We do. Okay. Okay. But, despite it because that's the sort of power we hold. We wield power. We do. Okay. Okay. But despite it being twice the amount of people, the same results. 20% of people believe that their job does not positively contribute to society.

80% said yes. 20% said no. Jeez. Louise. Let's see. Yes, says Tara. I'm a full-time volunteer and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Do you get paid? Not as a volunteer.

Full-time volunteer. You would be volunteering your time. What would you volunteer as? What would you do? You'd probably just volunteer and do marching or something. Yeah, I'd probably go play piano for the old people. Yes. Do you know what I'd be great at that? Yeah, thank you.

I'd work for the Department of Conservation. And I'd do the shooting. Yeah. Like where you go out and you shoot the possums. Maybe a hot warden? Nah. You don't want the people. Don't want the people.

But I'd do that thing where I clear those rotten stoats and stuff from the traps. Oh, we talked to them. And reset the traps. Yeah, remember we were hiking and we talked to those people emptying the traps. Yeah, I was like, what do you do with it? And he's like, I throw it like this. And he threw this rotten carc emptying the traps. Yeah, I was like, what do you do with it? And he's like, I throw it like this. And he threw this, like, rotten carcass into the bush. I would love to do dock work weighing the birds.

You know how, like, the albatross, and they, like, have to go up, and they, like, pick them up and put them on a scale. They're like, here, you're fat. Did you see that horrendous footage that the Department of Conservation released of a dog killing a kiwi? No. And how, like, you've got to control, like, your dog. No, not a cat. Wow. I mean, they've got plenty of cat footage. Let's ban dogs got to control your dog. No, not a cat.

Wow. I mean, they've got plenty of cat footage. Let's ban dogs. Let's ban dogs, Charlie. Plenty of cat footage. Plenty of cat. It was actually horrific. I wouldn't recommend watching it.

Just know it exists. Stacey says, saving lives in a cath lab. Cath? Cath lab. It's people called Catherine, and they come in and they're like, I need saving, help. You're like, okay. Someone else comes in and they're like,

Okay, Cathy, sit down. I'm Kate. And they're like, is it short for Catherine? And they say, no, it's just Kate. And they say, sorry, this is not the Cath Lab. We're tests and procedures including ablation, enneagram, angioplasty, and implantation of pacemakers. Oh, yeah, you're good people.

You're doing great work. Yeah, thank you. Every day you're saving lives. Yeah. Like, that's a great feeling. My papa was a guinea pig for all the new pacemakers we get in the country. And he lived to a ripe old age, didn't he?

Yeah, in his 90s. In a cage, though. Yeah. Yeah, in a cage. Because he was a guinea pig. You should have seen him on one of those little wheels, though. Yeah. He loved his go. He could run. he loved his wheel, didn't he?

He did. And his little water tube. Sam says, I'm a bartender. If espresso martinis don't positively contribute to society, then I don't know what does. Yes, Sam. On behalf of society, we thank you. As some of those society members that come in for our espresso martinis.

We thank you. We thank you. We thank you for your service. Yeah, you're providing caffeine and alcohol. Two of my favourite drugs. Yep. Someone's name is Pilates without the S. How would you say that? Pilate.

Pilate. Pilate. Pilate. Pilate Neola. What a beautiful name. Like from the Bible. Pontius Pilates. Yeah. He's Pilate. Pilate. Yeah. Pilate. What a beautiful name. Like from the Bible. Pontius Pilates. Yeah.

He's Pilate. He crucified Jesus by putting him through 30 minutes of high intensity Pilates. Stretching. I'm a baker, says Pilate. Donuts bring people joy. That's a positive. You're damn right wrong. Carbohydrates are my third favorite drug.

Feeding the masses. Rose, I charge a lot of people for their broadband connection. Now, I don't know if she voted yes or no. Yeah, that's probably not a... I don't know if that's bringing anyone joy. But it's bringing us access and it's bringing us knowledge and connection. Logan doesn't go into

what he does, but he says, no, my job barely contributes positively to my bank account, let alone the world. I think that's time for a career change. Could be, if you're not sparking joy. What was her name? Marie Kondo. Yeah.

It's time for a clean out of the drawer. I think she was more meaning your wardrobe, Vaughn, not your job. Also, she's abandoning her own theories. Yeah, she actually lives in... She's a slob. She's a slob now, yeah. I work in finance and wealth management. I think you can guess what my answer was. Yeah. No. and... She's a slob. She's a slob now, yeah. I work in finance and wealth management.

I think you can guess what my answer was. Yeah. No. Well, if I, you know, if someone had wealth and you were managing it and making them more wealth, I think they would think

you were... Yeah, you're contributing to one part of society. To society. Yeah. But there you go. It reflects. It reflects.

Life's short, you know. Get out there and shake it up. MTVA, they're the ones that did Catfish. They did a lot of bloody good trash. It's on. You can watch it all on Neon. Oh, can you?

Have you seen the original documentary that started? It's very, very well done. It's one of the best. It's incredible. Yeah, that's right. I remember watching the full thing and then it became a show. Well, season eight is the latest season that you can watch on Neon. And there are, so all up 60 episodes.

Yeah, there's so many. If you don't know what catfish is, it's like two guys help people who think they may be being catfished online, like someone's pretending to be something they're not or someone they're not. And even sometimes when they're confronted with the catfish, people still don't want to believe, eh? Yeah, no, they can't even fathom it. Now, Producer Karwin, you were in a bit of a little catfish binge yesterday.

Yeah, look, it is one of my guilty pleasures to just sit down and just binge Catfish. Because sometimes it's trash, eh? It's trash, but in the best way, you know? Yeah. Because you're kind of like, how are these people that delusional? But then also, I can see how it can happen. Well, speaking of delusional, this is, I think, did you watch this episode yesterday?

I've seen clips of it, but I haven't been able to track it down. I will say I watched some on YouTube. So there is a woman. Oh, do we need a Neon subscription? No, it's just that Neon doesn't have all of them. I don't think they maybe

don't have the latest ones yet. Yeah. Okay. Well, there is a woman called Makala. She's from Kentucky in the United States of America. Now, she divorced her husband

and lost $10,000 because she believed that the person she was talking to online was the hot guy from Stranger Things, Dacre Montgomery. Who? Dacre Montgomery, who plays Billy. It's fair to say... Ah, he is a good-looking boy. It's fair to say that if you think someone from a TV show or a movie

that is really hot is talking to you online, it's probably not them. And asking you for money, asking you for $10,000. Oh, what? His father's a Kiwi. Yeah, he's an Aussie. What? He's an Aussie. His Lebanese Canadian

mother, I thought it was lesbian but it's not because it says that his father is Scott Montgomery Harvey. I did that the other day, went past a store and I thought it was lesbian but it's not because it says that his father is Scott Montgomery Harvey. I did that the other day. I went past a store and I thought it was a lesbian store. A Lebanese restaurant. But it wasn't. It was delicious Lebanese food. Lesbian wraps. Yeah, I thought they were selling them in a store. I love lesbian cucumbers.

Lesbian cucumbers and lesbian wraps with like lesbian hummus and stuff. Delicious. Online, episode 81 is the latest episode of, oh episode 82, sorry, Catfish, dated 25th of April. So Neon's up to episode 60. So yeah, they've got a few more to drop. So she said that she joined an online artist's forum

to connect with other creatives. Right. She's a creative being. Yep. She said she hit it off with one of the people who hid behind his username before claiming he was Dacre Montgomery from Stranger Things. And she was like, I was suspicious.

But then we got on and he knew so much about Stranger Things. He knew so much about Stranger Things. My nine-year-old knows so much about Stranger Things. Yeah. She got like 15 out of 15 on a Stranger Things quiz she did online the other day. Impressive. Well, then the

catfish people got into it and they're like, hey, hon, no. It's not him. The episodes of Catfish where they then get the actual celebrity to meet them and be like, it's not me. Yeah. And the person's always like, is it though? Is it though?

You're just shy because the cameras are here. Because wasn't there another person who believed they were dating Katy Perry? Katy Perry. Katy Perry. That's it. Was there one that was Chris Brown as well? Probably. One of the vintage episodes, it was Chris Brown, a rapper,

and she met them, but they made her keep a blindfold on the whole time. Oh, my God, that's right. Do you remember that one? Yes, I do. You can meet me, but you can't take off the blindfold. Oh, come on. How dumb are people? Well, I mean, look.

Do you know what, though? This is the way scams are going, though, with AI and voice. You know the way that AI can clone voice. Red deep fake and all that. And not even that, not even pretending to be celebrities, but pretending to be people that you know and asking for money. Like they might send a voice message. Say I'm in trouble

overseas. Can you give me some money? Here's the account. And it sounds exactly like you. Well, it also, it's like they're just preying on vulnerable people. You know, they're going like, can they spot a weakness in this woman? Is she gullible? Is she a bit desperate? So this was for money, though, eh?

But then sometimes on Catfish, it's not even about that. I'm like, why are they power games? Yeah, yeah, it's mental games and the power they have over people. It's pretty sick. I don't think I've ever catfished any, like, been catfished before. I mean, God, those MSN chat rooms were wild. Are you sure it's Jason Momoa messaging you? Oh, my gosh.

Imagine if... He's just told me yesterday that I should leave Aaron. He's going to pick me up after work and we're going to elope to Italy. Is that not him? Don't think it is. Because I've absolutely... He said all I need to do is transfer $100,000 to his account so he can get the flights and everything organised.

And you've gone and mortgaged your house a bit more. Yeah, totally. But he's like, man, I'm ditching Aaron. And we're going to fly off to the States and just live our life together. That's not being catfished. He couldn't use the money because it's all tied up with the divorce. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I had to. Probably helping out Maui. Yeah, he's donated all his money to Maui, so I've got to do. So that's why you've got to give him, yeah, I don't know, a few red flags. That's too late. The money's gone. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.

From the self-driving ZM think tank, this is the top six. Just wanted to see what you get on a term deposit for $37 million. I mean, this is not something I have to worry about because I don't have money in a term deposit for $37 million. I mean, this is not something I have to worry about because I don't have money in a term deposit because I have a mortgage that literally has my twisted testicles

in its hands. Yes. So, $37 million won last night by one lucky ticket holder in Paraparaumu. Kapiti Coast

down near Wellington. Oh my God. What are they about? I fell for sure it was mine. You know, you just have a gut feeling sometimes. Yeah, yeah. It just wasn't, though, was it? It is mine.

It just feels, right? Okay, so I'm just going to go with my bank because it's easy. No specific reason. But say you put interest rates at the moment for a term deposit is 5.9%. So let's say, should we have $7 million to play with? Sure. Let's keep $7 million to play with. So we're going to have $30 million,

and we're going to put $30 million. Oh, you're putting $30 million. I thought we had $30 to play with $7 in the deposit. No, we're going to play with $7 because we're trying to keep it a little bit low-key for the moment. You know, everybody will know. Probably still got to work for it a little while

and then just slowly taper off stop showing up so 5.9 times 1.059 oh my god there's literally an online calculator for this Vaughn

oh I just he wants to do it the old school way he's got his abacus out you just made 1.7 million dollars in a year in a year

I'm 40 and then you could literally just but then by that time you're probably used to that 7 mil that you just skipped. Take it another 7. How? You'd buy all your big things with your 7 that you need. Yeah, yeah.

Unless you wanted like a bigger house. That's so much money. Yeah, it's a lot. It's a crazy amount of money. Well, it was one in Pata Pata Umu by one person. Because my mum always says when it gets too big, it shouldn't be won by one person. Yes.

I hope it is won by three. That's what she said yesterday when I talked to her. 37 is too much. That between three people would be fine. Unless, of course, she won it all. Would she be happy with that? She'd deal with it. She'd find a way to deal with it.

She'd cope. So I've got the top six ways to spend $37 million in Pada Pada Umu. Number six on the list, you've got to buy Southwood Car Museum. Oh, okay. It's one of the most beautiful collection of classic vintage cars in Aotearoa. And then you could just be like, what car am I going to take for a fang up Transmission Gully today? Yeah, fair.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Oh, yeah. Although I think Peter Jackson owns Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Do we have any word on where Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is? Yeah, Peter Jackson owns Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. He owns so much stuff, doesn't he? He owns a lot.

He owns dinosaurs. Plural. A couple of dinosaurs. It's like when you buy a cat and then you're worried the cat's going to get lonely so you buy another cat. He bought a T-Rex, didn't he?

He doesn't want his T-Rexes getting lonely. He bought another T-Rex. Number five on the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in Pada Pada Umu. Buy Kapiti Island

and make it your own supervillain lair slash bird sanctuary. Yeah, good. That'd be great. Or kick the birds off. No, no, kick the birds off. No, because I need to bring my cat. Yeah. Oh, no, no, no, no. Sanctuary Island? There's too many seagulls. Like, your cat stays inside at the moment.

That cat's just going to stay inside on your supervillain lair. No, you could dome it. You could dome it if you had $37 million. You could put a whole dome over the thing so Major Mars is just like free to roam. Yeah, right. Cool. No birds. But then the birds are also inside the dome.

No, no, you've got to get them out of the dome. But this is the birds' island. No, it's mine now. I bought it. He's got $37 million. Yeah, this is wild. Number four on the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in Pata Pata Umu

are a shopping spree at Coastlands Mall. Oh, yeah. I love Coastlands. It's the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in Paraparaumu. A shopping spree at Coastlands Mall. Oh, yeah. I love Coastlands. It's the rhythm of the coast. Is that the saying? Coastlands, the rhythm of the coast. Yeah. You can probably buy a store in there.

Or the mall. The whole mall. You can probably buy the whole mall. Hi, can I help you today? Yep. I'll have it. What? The mall.

The mall. Parking included. Number three on the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in Paraparaumu, Green Mantle Estate. What's that? At 214 Main Road North in Paraparaumu. It's a beautiful, once-hosted Tiger Woods. Oh.

Recently purchased, so they can't have grown that attached to it. Yeah. Swipe in and buy yourself an absolutely luxurious piece of the coast there with Green Mantle Estate. Number two on the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in

Pata Pata Umu. Build a wall to keep those people from Levin out. Am I right? Yuck. Yuck. Charge them.

The only good thing about Levin is it's got a non-alt. Now that's a very good non-alt, the Levin non-alt. Well it's your sponsor of course.

It's a great non-alt. Yeah my my friend was the manager for many, many years. Oh, really? I was going to say the only good thing about live-in is when you live in it. Live in, live in. I meant leaving it, not live in, living there. Good morning to all of our live-in listeners. We love you. You suck.

No, you don't. I love live-in. The Toyota live-in was named after live-in because they did the test stick on the track. No, it wasn't. Was it actually? Google it. No, you were just making that up. No, it wasn't. Was it actually? Google it. No, you were just making that up. No, I'm not.

Just because you've got $37 million now, you can't just start making up facts. I'm also not from Parabaroumu. God, Green Mantle, stunning. Yeah, beautiful. I thought it would be right up your alley. Yeah, it's a bit of me, isn't it? Cold, cold shithole right up your alley. Yeah, yeah, it needs a ton of repairs.

Absolute sinkhole of money. The Corolla Levin, in brackets, which isn't named after the town in the Hottophanilla. Bullshit. But Old English for lightning. Which is also where Levin gets his name from. Does he get lots of lightning? They share an ancestor. Nah, Levin's named after somebody whose last name was Levin.

Yeah, well, you've got Where was Evan Moore from? You've got egg on your face, Fielding. What an idiot. Were they from Fielding? A little bit further up. But then another article says the Toyota Corolla Levin is named after the small town in New Zealand. Yeah, they test, I thought they tested, did some testing on a

track there. Right. I mean, I don't know why they go to Levin of all places to test the Japanese assembled vehicle, but why not? We were doing Toyota's here for a while. And number one on the list, I just found this out. Yeah.

Next time we're in Wellington, we're getting on a transmission and we're going to go for a little drive up. Oh, yes, please. Across. You're going for a drive where? Across.

Up. If we're in Wellington, it's up. Over. No, it's up too. If you're in Wellington, it's up. Okay. That was my base point. Yeah, okay. Wellington, it's up. Over. No, it's up too. If you're in Wellington, it's up. Okay.

That was my base point. Yeah, okay. Wellington, up. Right. Levin, down. I'd say across. Yeah, I'd say across. Parmi, crossways.

Yeah. Down and crossways. Number one on the list of the top six ways to spend $37 million in Pada Pada Umu, go and get yourself lots of K-Chicken Bistro. I was Googling. Korean fried chicken. And the best Korean fried chicken in the world, apparently. In the world?

Near the Coastlands Mall. Absolute perfection. I recommend either the honey soy or the sweet and spicy or half and half. Bone is slightly better than bone in, in my honest opinion. But if you love eating chicken off the bone, the bone will be for you. This sounds like it. They also have amazing chips. This sounds like a roadie.

Up from Wellington. Up from Wellington. Down and around from Wellington. K Chicken Bistro. Shout out. Shout out. That's my first stop this morning if I had won $37 million in Lotto last night. That's today's top six.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Will she? Won't she? Will she? Won't she? I am obsessed with Britney Spears. And I come from a place of respect in my obsession with Britney. Oh, did you hear my throat just go?

Yeah, what was that? It was like an internal throat burp. At the same time, my guts went. Oh, they're chatting. Because I thought you'd heard that. Oh, they're chatting. So Britney thought you'd heard that. Oh, they're chatting. So Britney Spears, right, was freed from her conservatorship, got back in charge of her own social media.

It's wild west out there with Brit. Yeah, you kind of wonder if, yeah, like, it's not good. Yeah, like, there are deep concerns for her mental well-being. She's, and with love, I say she's a bit unhinged. Do you know what? The world sadly has done this to her. Yeah, man. Yeah, we did.

We did this to her. And then recently, this is fascination because she's like, it's like a performance. Her whole life is a performance. We're like, who is the real Britney? She announced she's doing a memoir. So October 24 is when that book comes out.

So we're what, two months away from this book? I'm so excited to read it. She's put her heart and soul into it apparently. And wasn't there some issue where... I think she also described one of her Instagram dances as pouring her heart and soul into it too, so I'll probably skip the book. And that's okay, I don't think I need to read the book. Maybe, I'm sure there'll be some bullet points

and you can summarise for us. I will summarise, I will chew that thing up. You can do a chapter a day. I don't think I'm going to need to read the book. Maybe, I'm sure there'll be some bullet points and you can summarise for us. I will summarise. I will chew that thing up. You can do a chapter a day. Hasn't there been some issue with discussing past exes with lawyers? Yeah, so Justin Timberlake, they had to sort some legal stuff and make sure that the wording of things,

because there was a whole thing about him and she was a virgin and then he would talk about taking a virginity and she was like, I don't want that image, I'm a Christian gal. He's called Dustin Lumberstream. Yeah. Just to get round legal issues. Dustin Lumberstream of my first love. We're gonna all know that's Justin Timberstream.

Dustin walked in in his double denim suit and my denim panties dropped to the floor. And then he left and I said, bye, bye, bye. Yeah. We're gonna figure that out. We'll never know. Anyway, so now overnight there's been rumours that she's been offered a significant financial sum

in order to do a tell-all with Oprah. Like Megan and Harry did. Like Lindsay Lohan did. She gets all the big ones because people trust her. They do. And she is a great interviewer. Yeah, and she kind of like cuts through it. Yeah.

And like gets to the thing because that's the whole thing. Like Brittany's got this performance thing going on. Like she's giving us an image of who she is. I wonder if Oprah can cut through it. Now, I've read a number of websites trying to like verify whether or not she's actually been offered this. Some people are saying it's looking likely. Others are saying she'd never do it.

But she's got a book coming out and normally when a book or a movie comes out, the stars will do press. They'll do a million interviews. She won't do that. So doing one interview with someone she trusts like Oprah would make more sense, right?

Because she hasn't really made any sort of coherent comment about the end of her conservatorship or the wild claims, the fights with her family. Which she'd imagine will all be in the book, right? She just does it. Well, I know, or will it just be mad ramblings? Because that's what her Instagram is.

It's just the most wild stuff. Probably have a few, like, colouring ins. It's Rose. Like, there's this Rose thing. She wears red. few, like, colouring in. It's Rose. Like, there's this Rose thing. She wears red. She's like, red Rose. It's so bizarre. And then she just posts weird things.

I mean, I'm sure whoever's publishing the book has got a writer to help her. It's not just going to be. Oh, 100%. But there's going to be some juicy goss. They better know how to rhyme. There's going to be some juicy goss. They better know how to rhyme. There's going to be some juicy goss in there. I hope so, but I would love... For this to be true.

For this Oprah thing to happen. Because as you say, Oprah is a very good interviewer. She's a little bit tied up at the moment. She got denied into that Maui emergency shelter with a film crew. And now everyone's saying, give back that stolen land, Oprah. Wait a minute, what? Oprah was trying to do some helping, you know, like handing out food to people

who have lost their shop. But only on camera, of course. With a camera crew. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so she turned up with a camera crew and they're like, get out. Yeah, they're like, no. And also, do you own a large piece of land here? Well, she's, I remember because I went to Maui like 10 years ago and they were always like, oh, that's

where Oprah lives up around there. And so she's lived there for a long time. Lives there. Or has a place there. Holidays there. Right. So, but apparently this year. I mean, it's all going down at the moment because people are,

like real estate agents are coming in after people have lost their homes and being like. Shut up. I never thought about it. We'll buy it. We'll buy it. Yeah, I was reading a thing like desperate people see that as the only financial way out. It's so bad.

It's just vultures. I thought I was bad. Sometimes I'll go on a holiday after a disaster. Yes. Cheaper. It's cheaper. But it's also like people are so stoked to have tourists back. Yeah.

And, you know, it's a little bit quieter. Give it a breath. No, I always give it a breath until they're like, we're open for business again. Please come. And then I'm back. Yeah, you got that Thailand post-tsunami holiday very cheap. Yes, it did. A lot of debris, though, still.

There was still debris in the water, yeah. But they were so stoked that tourism was coming back. Well, watch this space to see if Brit does jump opposite Oprah and tell us all. Next on the show, your cat is about to cost you a lot of money. Yeah, sure is, little shh. Sure is. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Big day at Casa Sproul yesterday. You got a floor. I've got a floor. And now no more walking on the joists, no more sort of balancing around on loose, flapping plywood strips. You sent me photos and you've put them up on your Reno page. Yeah, check it out, Mill Cottage Reno.

So nice. Really nice. It's a big moment, you know. Those floorboards have been in our garage for nearly a year because the process is moving a little slower than we expected. But we knew this day would come because we had a cat flap on the side of our house for Raleigh, then that side got demolished. So then Aaron built like a fake door with a cat flap in it

and a ramp leading up to it. Really cute. So that Raleigh had his own sort of like steps and a little ramp and then he could get in. Then that door had to go and then the extension framing went up and Aaron built like a new system for our cat. Like all the time we were just doing these like elaborate things

to get this cat in and out. He would spend a whole day working on a ramp, a cat ramp and a flap. And then like 7pm he'd be like, bloody hell, I've got to sort the cat door. Like hammering bits of wood together and frame. It was very cute. Yeah.

Especially for a man who says it's my cat. Yeah. So my cat, my problem. Yeah. And then recently, because only some floorboards were down, he's been able to get up through the joists and into the house.

Yeah. Now that the floorboards are fully down, he's locked out, man. Wow. Because the front door is the original door. That's 145 years old. I'm not putting a cat flap in that. Get a grip. That's what I was like. Why don that's 145 years old. I'm not putting a cat flap in that. Get a grip.

That's what I was like, why don't you put one in there? I'm sorry. Can you get him out of here? Sorry, but a 145 year old door can have a cat flap. It's solid wood. It's what they would have wanted. No, they wouldn't. What would they have wanted? A high percentage of the children to

survive childhood? Polio. Some carbohydrates. Clean water. I don't think they would have even registered on them a little flap. A little flap for a puss. No, they couldn't. And also the first thing you'd see when you look at the pretty front of my house would be this cat flap.

Absolutely not. It was never an option. The first thing I see is the horrendous deforestation of our Orimi Forest. Yeah, it's very much made of Orimi and kauri. Yeah. That is a very, it's a native house. I thought it was brave of you to fell those yourself. Yeah, true.

Well, we've got the forest right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll go do that. Finning it out, give the others a chance to thrive. Yeah, they made sure to only get the big old ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah.

How far away from rotten, you know? What, are you going to have to open your door now to let your cat in? Well, yes. Like, that's the temporary measure because, like, he's an indoor-outdoor cat. He goes as he pleases. So yesterday we had to sort of, like, coach him that he's not trapped. Yeah. And that he can just meow at the door and we'll let him in and out.

And that was a pain during the night. I hate it. And then the reason is we have to wait because our cat door, we were like, when we talked to our draftsman, we were like, where are we going to put the cat door? We've got bifolds at the back. They're double glazed and they stack. You can't put it in there.

They've got the front door that's old and that's it. I'm not leaving a window open. That cat is not jumping through a window onto the kitchen bench. That's Nemo. Yeah. So we're not going there. So then we designed this thing. We're like, oh, cut a hole in the wall.

Make him a little tunnel. He can come in through the wall. Through the wall, right? We thought nothing of it. We're like, oh, cut a hole in the wall. Make him a little tunnel. He can come in through the wall. Through the wall, right? We thought nothing of it. We're like, easy. That's the solution. This makes good sense, too, because if you put too big a cat door in your actual door, someone with a long arm can reach in the cat door up.

Open the door. Open the door. Or sometimes they put their children through on school holidays. Put their little kitties through, yeah. Yeah, be like, go nick me a tally. Yeah. Let daddy in the front door. Let daddy in, yeah.

So what we did is we designed this little thing with our architect and then blah blah blah. Then it had to get, it went through council and then the council was like, well that's going through you know, like a solid wall it's going to have to get properly engineered so that the wall and the roof are still being held up despite the small

cat sized hole and we were like, okay. Are you telling me the council's taking the piss? I think the council might be taking the piss. Are you telling me the council's taking the piss? Maybe a little bit. Wait, some of this overreach, this red tape overreach? Your cat tunnel needs to be specially engineered

to go through a load-bearing wall. Yep, so then it had to go. It wouldn't be going through the load-bearing aspect of the wall. Absolutely not, mate. It would be going through a hollow part of the wall that would be otherwise just where insulation sits. Yep, they don't care. So then we've done it. At the end of the day,

this cat door's costing us nearly $2,000. Yep. And what we've paid for like council and what we've paid to get it engineered by the engineer. How much is it to put a cat down? Because that's a lot cheaper. I'll do it for nothing. You are not shooting my cat out the back of your house. I'm sorry. No, no, no, no.

I wouldn't shoot it. God, I just sharpened the axe. It seems like that's a waste of time. Honestly, every time I've seen him, like, you better be grateful, you little S. I would spend that on Major Murray. Of course you would. We got a cat in our door when we redid our laundry

so they could come into the laundry, but then they'll just sit at the other doors and go, meow. Go back where you came in. Go out where you come in. Yeah, get back. How big is the cat tunnel?

Because my concern would be with Major Murray Fluffington, it wouldn't fit. He'd beach himself. He'd brought him out halfway through. Or he'd get stuck

in the middle of the tunnel with his guts. Well, the flap at south, you can buy them. They're just like two normal flaps like that.

And then you'll build, oh no, I think it's one flap on the outside and then you'll line the tunnel bit so he comes out the lounge. What are you going to

line the tunnel with? I guess you'll jib it. Jib and plaster and paint it a cute colour maybe a wallpaper or a little tunnel. That's a finicky bit of jibbing. Bloody finicky.

Is it going to have a vent in from the central air con? Oh you will warm the tunnel. I wouldn't do We'll put a little vent in. Here's why I wouldn't do gym. Have you ever seen how gross and dirty cat doors get? Because cats come in dirty and rub their dirty guts

on them on the way in and stuff. I'd build a stainless steel thing. It's a great idea, actually. Like a little tube. A little slide. He could slide. Oh my god, maybe we should move the cat flap higher. So then he's got little steps up to the cat flap on the deck and then... How does he get out? steps up to the cat flap on the deck and then wee.

No, because then how does he get out? You only need to climb back up the slide. You should be teaching your children not to climb back up the slide. Yeah, you don't do that. We talked recently to Patti Gower, who did a special on vaping. Yes. Have you watched that?

No. It was pretty horrendous. I don't want to. It was pretty horrendous. I don't want to. It was pretty horrendous. I think when he was talking about how they were wearing full PPE pouring nicotine. Yeah. And mixing up the vape juice. It didn't feel good, did it? Yeah. The reason he was doing it is because

we don't know enough about vaping and the long-term impacts, like we do about smoking, right? It's too young, it's too early to tell, but signs are pointing that it's not great for you. Now, producer Jarrod is in studio. Hello. Hello. You vape all day?

Yeah, I vape quite a bit. I used to be a pack-a-day smoker for like seven years. Wow. Yeah, so I vape pretty hard. It must have blown people's mind because when you started, I mean, you've aged horrendously these hours. These hours will kill any youth anybody has apart from Fletch for some reason. But that must

have freaked people out when they saw a 16 year old hoon in a back smoke. He's from South Africa, like it's probably quite normal. Yeah, I started late for South Africa. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Well, an aesthetician who is like a beauty therapist who deals with skin and skin care. Yeah. Exactly. Well, an aesthetician who is like a beauty therapist

who deals with skin and skin care. Yeah. Like not a dermatologist, but more like how to look after your skin. Okay. She claims that she can tell a vapour within seconds of them walking into the room. Is it because they smell like peach? It's because they smell like delicious grapes.

They smell like grapes, yeah. Well, she has a number of things She said she sees clients as young as 18 Presenting with signs of early ageing And it's not just things like fine lines How old are you? 29 Doesn't look 29

Doesn't look 29 No you've got great skin If you shave like When you don't have a moustache You still look 17 Yeah 100% And not just because you're a short king,

which we stan. Yeah. We stan. But you do, you've got a baby face because she says usually with vape skin, she calls it, especially in younger people, you start to see crow's feet develop a lot more often.

So those are the eye lines, right? Yeah, but you're 29. I mean, I've got them. I'm 33. Are you only 33? Yeah. I thought you were always saying 43. And how long have you been vaping for?

Yeah, yeah, what are you? She's still trying to shake it off from the darts. I am. I am. I don't vape, but, you know, I'll just go straight to the source. Anyway, she says. Did you have a couple of darts in Wellington last weekend? Yeah, I did.

You did have a couple of darts. Yeah, a couple. She's in Wellington last weekend? Yeah, I did. You did have a couple of darts. She's a social darter. Why not? You start to see dullness, a sallowness, almost like a grey tone to the skin. Sallow. Don't describe someone as sallow-like. I would say your skin tone, you're a fair-skinned boy,

but I'd say you have more of a pink undertone, like a nice flush. Yeah, but give it a few more years on the vapes. Yeah, I'm cello. And I could dull out. You do have sort of a shadow under the eye, but again, would you equate that to the 4 a.m. alarm clock? Yeah, that's what I would blame it on.

Do you notice your skin? Do you feel your skin is, what does she describe it as? Cello. Is that like a dull? So yeah, dull. Cello skin refers to skin that's lost its natural complexion. When this happens, your skin may appear yellow, brown, or grey in tone. Especially to the face.

Okay. I don't particularly think I'm sallow, but I have started moisturising this year. Okay. I can tell. Got some sunscreen in that moisturiser? Couldn't tell you. Yeah, you should. Give it an SP effect.

You should. She also says around the mouth you can start to see discolouration in the middle part of the mouth where you'll be inhaling. Look at her doing little kissy lips at us. I think you're fighting off the signs. I can't tell. Yeah, so lip balm. She says lip balm and a bit of moisturiser,

a bit of unnamed moisturiser. She says that it's mostly in young people because young people, like we would look at a 29-year-old who gets up at 4 a.m. every single day and be like, yeah, his eyes look a bit tired. They're a bit glazed over. But she's going in young people. She sees it immediately. Wow.

And that's like when they're young. So what are they going to be like when they are like 30 or 40? A wrinkled ball sack of a face, honestly. I'm going to go back because have you ever seen photos of your, like, great-grandparents when they're 50 and they look 80? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like people just used to look way older, right? called ball sack of a face. Honestly. I'm going to go back because have you ever seen photos of your great grandparents when they're 50 and they look 80? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like people just used to look way older, right? Yeah, yeah. Because no sunscreen and all that. So maybe there's going to be a reverting to that. Because who did I see the other day

and they were 70 something and I was like, absolutely not. But they were. They looked good. 74. Jamie Curtis? No, 74. Jamie Lee Curtis? No no Jamie Lee Curtis

She's ageing naturally. In the Christmas episode of The Bear it looks terrible but she was meant to look terrible and I think they really ramped up the wrinkles and everything. So if ageing faster was a factor is it a concern for you? A consideration?

Not overly because I already look so young compared to my advanced years. It'll help you catch up. Yeah, but I am also hoping to get off the vape in the next year. Oh, we will support you on that journey. Thank you. Why don't you just stop?

You can come out with me and just get back on the world. See if someone has never been addicted to something. Why don't you just stop? Why don't you just stop? Are you sure? I don't get why you just didn't stop. Hey, heroin addicts, just stop. Have you gone for a walk?

Eat a banana, man. Yeah. Why are you sad? Don't be sad. Just stop being sad. Clay. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Well, a TikTok that a guy took in Kmart in Melbourne has gone viral.

And we've got this here. We've got the same thing here because I've just done a search on the Kmart website. This is a TikTok of what I would say hundreds and hundreds of, it's not a Barbie pink, it's a light pink, but they do have a Barbie pink, suitcases. Suitcases all over this Kmart store in Melbourne. How much? How much are we talking?

Hundreds. No, I'm talking 65 bucks. So for the big ones, 95 in New Zealand. And there's not a lot of them in the pink. And I tell you what, I don't know if it's because of the Barbie movie or pink's in. I just think everything pink's in at the moment. Pink's in.

Yeah, pink's in. But this is going to be a problem at the baggage carousel. 100%. Because there are literally hundreds just in this one Kmart store alone and everybody is snapping them up. This is why you need to tie a plastic bag around the handle. My mum's was always ribbons around the handle. Everybody ties ribbons around the handle.

Everyone does ribbons around the handle. But then every suitcase comes out with a ribbon and you're just like, well, that's mine. Mine's got a big Spider-Man label. Everyone does ribbons around the handle. But then every suitcase comes out with a ribbon and you're just like, well, that's mine. Mine's got a big Spider-Man label. Oh, God, it does too. It's got a big rubber Spider-Man thing

on the back. It's got my name and a dress in case I lose it. In case we lose it. In case we lose it. Because I bought my suitcase, which is like a teal green,

not a colour I really connect with. Yeah. But I bought it because I was like, oh, yeah, you know, it's not black. It will be,

stand out from the crowd if you find it. There's so many of them. Because I got it was like, oh yeah, you know, it's not black. It will be, stand out from the crowd if you find it. There's so many of them. Because I got it from like strand bags or you know, like where everyone gets them from. I know that like

there's like four or five brands. Yeah. It's all the same. It's all the same. They all have the same locks. Yep. 100%.

I would love to own a paint line. I see a Samsonite every now and then. I'm like, that's high end stuff. I've got a Samsonite. Where were we? You're very rich.

You're very rich. Where were we when we were... Your private jet is Samsonite. I don't... Yeah, it is. His PJ. I tried to take my... He calls it his PJ.

Private jet. He's so comfortable with his private jet, he calls it a PJ now. No, he's like, do you want me to pick you up on the pitch? Yeah. Oh, is he pitch? I've seen it written.

And I'm like, no, I'm only just going like an hour up the road. I'm just it written. And I'm like, no, I'm only just going like an hour up the road. I'm just in my PJ. I was like, no, it's PJ's pyjamas. He's like, no, private jet.

If I did have a private jet, we'd be going away this weekend. Yeah, we are. Yeah. We're like one lotto. You're driving me down to Newfoundland. I actually won lotto, so we can take my PJ.

I'm hopping your pitch. If you won lotto, you wouldn't be sitting here right now. I know I told Sade I would for the end of the year, but I would be really like hard to work with for the rest of the year.

So the end of the year when I left, people wouldn't be surprised. They'd be like, oh, thank God he's gone. I think they finally got rid of him. He was getting quite abrasive. The tension grew, man, and they were, yeah. Yeah, he stopped trying to be likeable. Yeah. But this thing of the same suitcases, whatever the brand,

wherever you buy it, there's always a thousand of the same suitcase. I want to know, and this is going to happen with these Kmart pink suitcases. One hundy. Has anybody listening picked up the wrong suitcase and just gone home? Yeah. And then just been like, uh-oh. I have, but I clocked it as just before I left the doors of the airport. Right.

Like I got the thing, I was like da-da-da-da, and I looked down and just saw that it didn't have the tag that I have on it. Do you not look for the name on the end of the baggage label? No, I just look for the colour. When it feels and just saw that it didn't have the tag that I have on it do you not look for the name on the end of the baggage label no I just

look for the colour when it feels familiar just grab it I've got a tag I've got a

spider-man thing but I always check it still says V Smith just in case someone else

with a spider-man tag and a black because I've got a very

like nondescript black suitcase yes when I went to Bali

I went to Bali we can talk about that later I've not heard this my review my friend When I went to Bali, one of our friends hit us. Did you go to Bali? I went to Bali. We can talk about that later. I've not heard this.

Well, we will do that for the last two breaks of the show, talking about Bali, my review. My friend brought a surfboard over, his surfboard, as does everyone going to Bali. Yeah. My friend Chappelle won't do that again, though. No. And that was a boogie, not a surf. Oh, right.

All in the same silver bag. Oh, really? So all these tourists are like, which one's yours? Oh, sorry. Unzipping, yeah, that's mine. It was an absolute cluster. That's my 5'4". So 0800 Darlsland, we'd love

Like a whole big vinyl Print out of my face. And it's you with a speech bubble saying like, mine. Yes, I saw someone with a suitcase like that once and it cracked me up at an airport. Friend of the show and television presenter Maddie McLean. Good morning, Matthew. Said, I accidentally picked up a Country Road duffel bag that wasn't mine. This was back in the day where you posted on a Facebook status.

And, you know, people shared it around and commented. And everyone had a country road dooflag. Oh, my God, they did. And it turned out it was someone we used to work with here. Oh, my God, Small World. Small World, and they had taken his. Yeah. Because everyone has a country road duffel and they were reunited on Facebook.

Got their badge. Beautiful. Amazing. Just magical. And now Facebook's mostly, like like outright racism and pylons. You know, back in the good old days. Someone said, my Nana, God bless her soul. Is she dead?

Does that mean she's dead? I'd say, yeah, probably dead. God bless your Nana, whether she was dead or alive. Yeah, keep it going. Grab the wrong set of golf clubs. And just because it was at the end of the day. So she put them in her car and took them home. Took a day for her to figure it out.

She got home. You always leave your golf clubs in until the next day. Oh, yeah. When you need the boot space for a shop. And she took them out. She was like, oh, these aren't mine. The guys whose golf clubs she actually took was not stoked and very rude about it. Oh, Nanny's got crap clubs.

You think he'd just be stoked to get his golf clubs back? Yeah, but they're worth it. He probably needed them that day. He's got the back nine. He's got the back nine, yeah. Of course he's got the back nine. All right, well, if you picked up the wrong suitcase by mistake, give us a call. Because they probably needed them that day. He's got the back nine. He's got the back nine, yeah. Of course he's got the back nine. All right, well, if you've picked up the wrong suitcase by mistake, give us a call.

We're currently asking if you've ever picked up the wrong bag, be it at an airport or somewhere else, because Kmart has these pink suitcases. They have an abundance of them, and this is going to cause chaos. It's going to, yeah, a lot of problems. All the girlies will be going home with other people's clothes. Like the country roadbags, Everyone's going to have one. Everyone's got one. Amber, when did you pick up the wrong bag?

Oh, it was a few years ago, but we just arrived back from Aussie. And, you know, you wouldn't believe your luck. It was the first suitcase on the carousel. Woo-hoo! It was on the trolley and, you know, cleared customs and got out. And, oh, there's a shuttle waiting. Yeah, we'll grab this one. Too easy.

And we were loading all the bags in. There was four of us travelling, so a few bags. And then, hold on, I don't think that's OK. It was a standard as Navy strand bag. OK. Oh, yeah. Got one. So we had to contact, you know, luggage services.

This poor couple standing at the carousel watching this one. Oh, thank God you got onto it quick. Yeah. Yeah. I think if yours is the only bag left and it's not your bag, but it looks like it, you can figure it out. It's pretty obvious. Yeah.

But, yeah, customs wasn't impressed, and they very well sold our bags before they handed them over. Oh, that's nice. You've got to get back through. That would be your biggest nightmare, is taking through someone's bag, and it's got, like, meat in it or drugs. Meat and drugs. And you're like, yeah, I've packed my bag.

This is my bag. Is this your guns and drugs and meat? You know we've got sausages here. Yeah, I know, but I've seen those custom shows. They don't think we've got sausages and mushrooms here. It's weird. Amber, thank you. Shanika, good morning.

Good morning. When did you pick up the wrong bag? I didn't actually pick up the wrong bag. Another lady picked up my bag at the airport when I was coming home from Brisbane. And so we happened to have the same coloured suitcases. And so I was watching it come out the conveyor belt. And then mine has a bit of tape on the corner. And I seen it and she picked it up and I seen this tape on the corner.

So I went to go follow her and she like, hurrying off with the suitcase, trying to get through security and whatnot. And then I was like, oh, hey, and then kept yelling at her. Wait, so you were, like, chasing this woman down? Yeah, I was, like, chasing this woman down, trying to get my suitcase. And then she, like, stopped. I stopped her in a hurry, and then I was like, oh, hey,

I think you've got my suitcase. And she's like, no, this is my suitcase. And I was like, no, I'm pretty sure it's my suitcase because I've got like tape on the corner. She's like, no, I happened to put that there last night. And I was like, I don't think so. And then she said, no, it's my suitcase. I don't really have time for this and whatnot. And then I was like, I can literally open up the suitcase and tell you that you're not going to see any of your items in there.

It will be all my clothes. And she's like, no, I don't have time for this. And I was like, yeah, neither do I. Like, I want to go home, but you're not letting me get my suitcase. So what happened in the end? So I ended up opening up the suitcases because it had like a little code on it that only I knew. So I ended up opening up the suitcase and then finding that it was all my stuff in there.

And then she ended up saying, she was like, oh, I'm so sorry. Must have been like a confusion. I was like, no, I was pretty convinced that it was my suitcase. So did she have a suitcase?

I reckon she was stealing. Yeah, probably. Do you know what? There's been a few messages of this. Are you kidding? People see, like mostly domestic,

they'll see someone grab the bag and they're like, oh, excuse me, that's my bag. And they're like, no, it's my bag. And they're like, no, look, it's my name and this is my bag. And they're like, oh, okay, leave the bag and then just leave. Don't wait for it on the bag. They're pinching. They're pinching. Yeah.

That's bad. It was so bad. Like, Evan had my, like, last name and everything on the actual little bag. Like, I'm telling you, you girl that is my bag. Yeah I was like you're not going to find and it was like an older lady too

so I'm like in my young like 20s. You could have taken her and pushed her and pushed her over. Pushed her over she's old.

Just say she had a fall. Thanks you Coleray. After the news next the Taylor Swift song the first one today that could win you a double pass to see her live

in Sydney. Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey. Play ZM. Taylor Swift, Cruel Summer. That is the song that you've got to remember along with the one at midday and then four o'clock. Be the first through at four o'clock. And you're going.

Do you know what I've never thought about? I could be making a fortune off this. You could be. Why are we giving away these tickets? We should be selling them at drastically increased prices. No, we're not doing that. This is dumb. What are we doing this for?

Because we're very generous, kind people and we love our listeners. Someone just said, does the fact ZM have the most tickets to Taylor Swift make you guys the biggest scalpers in New Zealand? To which I said no, because we're not selling them at pumped up prices so basically we're more of a bootlegger. Oh. We're a bootlegger?

We're a bootlegger. Yeah. Sounds a bit bad. More badass. Smuggler. We're like a smuggler. Well for every winner every winner as well

also going in the draw to win return flights for two all thanks to Air New Zealand's Grabber Seat. Project Swifty. Oh and it's Hayley's version of course. Oh my god you guys.

I'm sorry. Did we get Taylor Swift to do a voiceover for this project? I think we bootlegged that, too. Oh, my God. It's Hayley's version. So this is Project Swifty, Hayley's version, where our girlies are turning me into a Swifty because I respect how well she's done,

but I can't say I've been a listener, you know, like I listen to other things and now that Taylor Swift is dominating the world and that so many of our listeners are so excited and crying about winning these tickets, I sort of

want to understand it more. So I've asked Shannon and Carwin. Can you not just relate to like some of your emo bands? Yeah. Yeah. Not really. It's just a different energy. Yeah, right.

It's a different energy. Being a Swifty is a whole different breed. So you want that energy. I just want to be part of this moment in history. Right. I don't want to be one of those people on the outside being like, shut up, she's not that good. Because it's stupid.

She obviously is. Yeah. She's the biggest artist in the world right now. So producer Carwin and producer Chanelette Pajamas. Big Swifties. Huge Swifties. The biggest. You've taken it upon yourselves to turn me into a Swiftie.

Yeah, look, this is something I've always wanted to do, honestly. I know. You're always trying to change me. My brain is half Taylor Swift knowledge. I know. So why not pass that on to someone? Put it to good use. I know.

So you guys sent me some homework to kickstart this. A light start, shall we say. I watched... I had to watch... Miss Americana. Miss Americana on Netflix. And the 1989 bootleg filmed tour. It used to be on Netflix.

Did you say bootleg? I said bootleg. You've come to the right place. Yeah, I know. Did you do this? I did. Now, I will say... Is this why you didn't reply

to my funny memes I sent? Yeah, you sent so many funny memes and I just ignored them because I was swifting. Haley, yesterday, ignored my funny memes all day. But she was doing her homework.

I know. I usually respond. I was so rude. I'm sorry, I'm becoming a Swifty. Were they great memes? This is just, they were good. This is just what's going to happen. Because I'm a Snapchat then. Why were they so good?

You may feel me. Boys, you may feel me drift further away as I become a Swifty. That's okay. I thought you'd be devastated. You drift a little too close sometimes. I do, I'm pretty handsy. Now, I will say the 1989 concert you sent me is two hours. I skimmed it.

That's not Swifty material. I'm not a Swifty yet. So two hours of Taylor Swift is a bit much. By the end of this, you're going to watch that on repeat. Yeah, re-watch. That's fine. I trust you. I'm in your hands.

How many times have you watched it, Carwen? Being the biggest Swifty. So when it was released years ago, it was on Apple Music and I didn't have Apple Music. So I paid for it for like one month and then just watched it multiple times. Yeah, right. And then cancelled my subscription. Watched it every day that month. But now it's on YouTube. I've watched it twice this week, I'll be honest. Yeah. Holy moly.

That's four hours. It's a lot of time. It's great. Yeah, just like atmosphere in the house. Every time you walk past, you'll just like strike a little pose with it. You know, pretend you've got a golf club. I'm not there yet. Here's my takeaways from this homework, right? Miss Americana, we'll start with the documentary.

One, I'm a real music snob. And when pop musicians don't write their own music or they don't play their own music, I'm pretty quick to write them off. Yeah. I did learn that Taylor Swift is very much a musician. Yeah. She plays guitar.

She plays piano. She writes her own songs. She's very heavily creatively involved and I respect that. I'm giving respect. Yeah. The respect is due. She cried when she wasn't nominated for an award and I relate to that. Being a winner.

Have you cried? Have you? Well, I've always been nominated. Right. But the one or two times I haven't, it really upsets me. I like recognition in the form of awards and money. Yeah.

So I was like that. The other thing I related heavily to... Wait a minute, what awards give money? I've never won an award with any financial benefit. Like, theatre awards gave money. It was like the best thing ever. Oh, and they reckon the arts are a hard done boy. Yeah, he's getting a thousand dollars.

He's getting a thousand bucks just before Christmas. A thousand dollars? Yeah. For winning an award? Who sponsored it? Not that guy that's in jail now. Yeah, he's getting $1,000. He's getting $1,000 just before Christmas. For winning an award. Who sponsored it? Not that guy that's in jail now. No, the Chapman Trip lawyers. Oh, God.

Oh, God, no, not him. Oh, no, he wasn't involved. He wasn't involved. She likes cats. I like cats. That's what I learned. She puts a cat in a backpack. She's got a Scottish fold.

Yeah, she's got that. That thing can't be long for this world. Some countries have banned them. Some countries have banned Scottish Folds. But they're so cute. They're like British Shorthairs. They're real cute. Their face got smashed on with a spade

and then someone gave them an eardrop. No, you're thinking of a squishy face cat. A Burmese? Burman? They can't breathe. I thought Scottish Folds had the flat face. No, you're thinking... They have a semi-flat face.

Yeah, not a flat-faced thing. They're like my cat, but they've got the ears. Do they cut their ears? They're like the little Japanese cats. Lots of people in Japan have them. So you're very related to Taylor Swift. I'm very related. The other thing I'm related to is because Taylor Swift,

she's a mega superstar, but she still puts ice in her wine. Puts ice in her wine if it's not cold enough. I put ice in my wine if I can't be bothered. Wait, she's rich enough to have someone to bring her wine at whatever temperature she wants. And she's like, no, don't worry about it. Just open it now. I'll put a cube of ice in it.

I like this. Now, suddenly, Taylor Swift doesn't seem so unrelatable to me. I could be a Swifty. She's just like us. As for the world tour, the 1989 world tour, I would say it feels a bit cheap. The costumes weren't great. The first costume, she comes out in like a $2 shop

pair of white sunglasses. and I was like, hell no. What is the budget on this thing? It did have a rotating stage that I appreciated and a lot of people were really into it and I thought that would be a nice vibe to be in. The dancing is bad. She needed a bit of Periscopal. This was a different time. The dancing is tragic.

She's improved a lot since then. Did you notice the biggest thing about that tour is there's a very famous editing error where at one point she does like a Michael Jackson type lean onto one of her dancers. Again, it was a different time, was it? Jesus, we're not referring to that guy, are we? Watch my hand.

Watch me demonstrate it, right? This is the dancer, my hand, and then she kind of leans. We see that from the front angle. We see the dancer. Second angle, dancer's disappeared. They've edited him out. She's floating. It was the orca that she had in the tank

that I didn't like about that. All the dolphins and stuff. Different time. Anyway, I enjoyed myself. I enjoyed my homework. I'm looking forward to my next project. Next week, we're talking trends. Internet trends.

Song trends. Okay. Trends. I'm going to get trendy next week, guys. Watch me swift. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. trends. I'm going to get trendy next week, guys. Watch me swift. Instagram's changed its likes when you double tap on a picture of something that you like or you accidentally

tap it when you were like, ah, and then you immediately unlike it. Oh my God. When you're stalking someone and you're like way back in like 2015. Yes. Hell of a year for them, though. Hell of a year for them though. Hell of a year for them. That's when they were looking their best. I love it when people double tap me in 2016

because good Lord, I was tight. I was tight. And then the heart goes up the screen now. And they've also, you can see underneath shears, which you never used to be able to, which is like a little plane. I saw that. Yeah, yeah.

And there's another thing on some people's profile that's a little at sign and then a number. Now, is that how many mentions that account has? No, that's threads. That's their threads link. Yeah. Gotcha. Hey, guys. People haven't changed.

Guys, sorry. Sorry. This is Newstalk ZB Breaking News. Newstalk ZM Breaking News. Newstalk ZM Breaking News. I'm sorry. I really apologise. Vaughan, to cut you off there. Yeah, right.

We interrupt this broadcast with some breaking news. I wasn't emotionally involved in it. I was just... Are you kidding me? You came in this morning and just went, you won't believe what they've done to Instagram. My love for... The whole thing faded.

We have breaking news. Yeah. Britney Spears and her husband are getting divorced. Is this from the not surprised desk? This comes upon rumours of cheating. Okay. Not from Sam. He's a good looking dude.

From Britney herself. Apparently he approached her and said that, confronted her over rumours that she'd been cheating. And it appears that that's true. They've had a nuclear, nuclear argument about it all. Right. And, yeah, apparently she's been unfaithful. Who's she?

I mean, does she leave the house? Yeah. Who's coming into the house? This is on TMZ. A reliable source, TMZ, says. Okay. That Ishkari, Sam Ishkari, who is her husband, has moved out of their home and is now living

in his own place. Only a matter of time before he's filing for divorce. Now, he's 29 years old, she's 41, she's lost her marbles, he's an absolute kind of... She's going to be doing one of those weird dances this afternoon, isn't she? It's probably already on there. Because we were only just speaking

earlier this morning on the show about her book is the end of October. She's going to have to delay it. This chapter is going to be missing. It's all going to be about finding the happiness and the love of her new husband. How soon can you print a book? Like, how soon do they send the final copy? You just redact her.

You just paste her and scribble up the last page. Her page says, Artist, Mama, Pray Every day, chef in the works. No mention of wife. You heard her here first. Husband, wife. Oh, yeah, you meant she doesn't say wife. No mention of her being wife too.

Yeah, right. As a lot of people do. I mean, that makes me sad. I'm wildly indifferent about it. I'm deeply, deeply involved. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah.

Today's fact of the day is about grunge lingo. Grunge was a musical genre that popped its head up in the 1990s and said, here we are, entertain us. Right. And the likes of Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, a whole lot of bands around at the time, but it was all very new and weird. And the people who were a little bit older were like,

oh, are we to be worried about this? What does it all mean? And like any time there's a change in the guard, a whole lot of new lingo comes about. And people don't know what it means. Whereas I'm right. I've got my fingers on the pulse of Gen Z. I am bussin'.

No cap. Yeah. You are bussin'. No cap. I am bussin'. Always no cap. Yeah. You are bussing, no cap. I am bussing. Always no cap on my bussing. Sometimes I'm like, surely there's got to be a cap. No, there's no cap.

Zero cap. Yeah, zero. What did Indy message me yesterday? Oh, like, YK, and then told me a story. And that stands for you know? Like, you know how I told you? It was YK how I told you? Yeah.

Just in case you couple of old geezers are wondering what YK means when you're interacting with the youth. I was just like, why don't you worry about Y2K? The whole thing was a blowout. It was absolutely out of control. This predates Y2K, the grunge movement. Well, the New York Times wanted to talk to somebody in the know to write an article about grunge.

I'm guessing there was a little bit of that fear mongering thing that always pops up whenever something new happens and, you know, fear sells papers and stuff. So the New York Times contacted the record label Sub Pop, who had Nirvana and stuff, and said, we would love to know a bit more about this grunge. So they got put through to this guy who was like, I'm too busy for this, and put it onto the receptionist.

She's like, I don't know the answers. And the guy's like, who cares? Make it up. It's the New York Times. So then they asked her all about grunge and she answered to the best of her ability. And then they got to the lexicon of grunge, like words like, how would I say this in grunge?

So he's like, a lot of people who are in grunge bands are wearing old ripped jeans. Is there a word for that? And she was like, um, wax slacks. Made up. Wax slacks. Printed in the New York Times as official grunge words. He said, what about like, all the guys are wearing heavy wool sweaters? And she's like, yeah, we call that the fuzz. And what about the platform shoes? We call them plaits. Heavy boots are called kickers. Okay, what if you're just like hanging out

and you're going to listen to some grunge music? We call that swinging on the flippity flop. Get out. Get out. No lies. Officially printed in the New York Times. Oh, no. So if you're going to hang out in your heavy boots,

you're swinging on the flippity flap wearing your kickers. And this is one girl making this up. One girl. Amazing. A 25-year-old receptionist who was just like, why did this get put through to me? He's like, okay, so you guys aren't hugely social. You don't go out.

You hang a lot at home. So if you were going to hang out on a Friday or a Saturday, what would you call this? Hanging at home. We call that bound and hagged. Bound and hagged. Bound and hagged. Yeah.

This is where it gets weird because some words actually made it into it. He said, what if like, what's a negative? Like, ah, that didn't work out. She's like, bummer. Oh, yeah. Okay. So bummer. Yep.

Kind of worked. Wow. A loser. She said you would call them a cob knobbler. Cob knobbler. I've heard that. A dish is a desirable person. So if that person's a dish. which actually kind of made it into...

That's right, from the early days. What a dish. What a dish. She's a disher girl. If you're drunk, you'd be described as a big bag of bloatation. A lamestain is an uncool person. What a lamestain. Yeah.

Which kind of, you could could imagine are totally working. He said, what about like people who are outside of the grunge movement? How would you refer to them? And she said, we refer to them all as the Tom Tom Club. And all of this ended up. He's made up the best one. He said, what would be a way for a happy goodbye to a fellow

grunger? And she said, rock on. Wow. Rock on. Rock on. That would be the lexicon of grunge. So today's fact of the day is once upon a time the New York Times rang a record label to say you need to explain some words

for us of this new upcoming music genre. And a 25 year old receptionist called Megan Jasper just made it all up on the spot. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Ryanair is a very cheap airline that kind of connects you from England or whatever to Europe, basically. Really cheap flight. I've taken it.

It's super cheap, but you pay for everything. Yeah. Like they were just in the news yesterday because an elderly couple turned up and they hadn't printed out their boarding passes or downloaded the app and they charged them like $100 to print out boarding passes. Like you've got to – I know, yeah. Hey, I just – on airlines I received correspondence over my sick week last week from an Irish listener who has absolutely had it up to their eyeballs with us.

Teasing Aer Lingus teasing Aer Lingus. Aer Lingus. They said it is a beautiful national airline. It's Ireland's national airline. Yeah, I know, but it's got Lingus in the title. I know it does, and we make fun of it, and we often compare it to cheap airlines, and they said it's not,

and you don't see them making rude jokes about Air New Zealand. And I said, yeah, but it doesn't have Lingus in it, does it? Yeah, like if it was Air New Lingus. Yeah, if it was Air New Zealandus. Air New Zealandus would be funny. And I'd say, Mate, welcome aboard. Yeah, Mate.

Hello, this is your captain speaking. Welcome aboard, Air Lingus. Might be some turbulence. We don't do that. That's why we don't laugh at Air New Zealandus. And I apologise for laughing at Aer Lingus. Yeah. I don't apologise.

I've never flown Air Lingus. I have. It's good. It's cheap. Great hearing an Irish accent over the PA. On the menu today, we've got some potatoes. Oh, now you've got to apologise again. Wow, Vaughan's going to get another complaint.

Yeah. Not from the Irish. Not from the Irish now. But anyway, Ryanair, very cheap. Ryanair. They charge old people a fortune. Now, another thing that Ryanair is known for other than cheap connecting flights around Europe

is their online presence. Savage. Yeah, I think a job in their social media team would be... It's funny. Like, you'd be... It's well known as having incredible social media. Yeah.

In fact, I feel like they'd almost have to hire comedians. Yeah. Because the retorts and the comebacks are top notch. Yeah. Always. Yeah, for sure. Now, they took down someone online because a couple got engaged, Lee and Leah got engaged on a Ryanair flight. Mid-flight.

And now, Lee's thinking around proposing to Leah on this flight was that they love travel. But I was like, I love travel, but not the flights. No, the flight's the worst part. When you get on to come home, you're like, I just wish I was home now. Yeah, it's a necessary evil get to the fun thing.

Especially on Ryanair when your feet are like your legs are right chained in the seat. Although there is a lot to be said about the in-flight entertainment on Aer Lingus. Tell you what. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Tell you what. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. Now, so they did this right and they shared online, Engage on a Ryanair flight or whatever. They tagged them in. Tagged them in. They've got little plastic cups because they don't go beyond that. Plastic cups of bubbles, it looks like.

Yeah. Ryan here tweeted, Leah, blink twice for random seat allocation. That's good stuff. That is really good stuff. They wrote back to them, like in a bit of an exchange on Twitter, or whatever it's called. No free champagne for the beautiful couple.

And then Ryan Ear wrote, are you new here? They're very good. They're very good. They also took notes for introducing a proposal fee. They just like

ripped into them. Because this was the airline that years ago the guy that runs it was like, we're thinking seriously about charging two pounds for the toilet each time.

Remember that? Yeah. And people were like, you just can't do that. Yeah. I'll weigh in a Gatorade bottle. Yeah. Anyway, so people are just like, dude, it's not a great location. I'm not for all the massive, you know, it doesn't need to be massive.

Mine was in a bedroom. You don't want a public proposal? I don't want a public proposal. But I want to know if you were disappointed in the location that you were proposed to. No one's going to admit that, are they? Yeah, they will. Even if, I mean, because you'd probably just say.

You can laugh about it now. You can laugh about it now. Maybe it was a public proposal and that's why you didn't like it because you'd prefer it was private. Yeah. Yeah, maybe. Or you just didn't like the location. You would have rather it been at your house. Yeah, exactly. Or somewhere private.

Maybe it was a really elaborate location and that's just not who you are. You know, maybe it was like during the middle of the Disney parade and Mickey Mouse came with the ring and you're like, oh my God. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. If you could get Mickey to deliver the ring.

People don't like public proposals. It's too many people watching. It's way too much. A couple have been roasted for proposing or getting engaged on a flight. Yeah. A Ryanair flight. A Ryanair flight. So it's not the best. You're not in first class here. It's not classy.

No. And then the Ryanair themselves are roasting them for the location of choice. So we want to know from you this morning if you've ever been upset with where you were proposed to, or just maybe... Maybe it just was a bit of a flippity-flop for you. Tegan, good morning. Good morning.

Good morning. Were you not happy with where you were proposed to? Well, I understand that he got tongue-tied and all the rest of it, but I had a feeling he was going to propose on Valentine's Day and all the rest of it, but I had a feeling he was going to propose on Valentine's Day and all the rest of it. Yeah. But it was Friday the 13th. He couldn't wait any longer.

I was not, you know, Friday the 13th, so we have a little giggle about that. I was kind of a little under the weather because I was pregnant with our second child. Yeah. And he comes in and gives me a box of roses a box of roses which he'd taken all the roses out and just put the peppermint ones in when they were nice and there was a ring box in it yeah they used to be the change yeah nice acknowledgement there of the uh the failing when flailing uh quality of the the peppermint rose Yeah, yeah, yeah. He hands it to me and he goes,

yeah, it's that ring. What? It's that ring. Okay. Yeah, it's that ring. He didn't actually ask me. And you... Right, and then did you end up saying yes,

I guess I will then? Well, we're still together. Yeah, okay. Oh, well. Did you get married, though? Well, no, a lot of other things that happened,

we haven't just been engaged for like eight years. I was going to say, it's been a while since they changed the peppermint rose, so you must have

had a long engagement. I feel you there, mate. I feel you there. Hayley, how many years are you now? Four.

Okay, yeah, right. Fourish? You're going eight or fly by, won't they, Tegan?

Pardon? No, I don't want to be engaged for eight years. Thanks for your call. Let's go to Nicky. Nicky, won't they, Tegan? Pardon? No, I don't want to be engaged for eight years. Thanks for your call. Let's go to Nikki. Nikki, were you not happy with where you were proposed to? It was a bit disappointing, to say the least.

Okay, so whereabouts? Well, we were living apart. I'm Australian and we're living in Australia. I live in Australia and he lives in New Zealand. Tough. And he just said to me, it was December, and he goes, oh, if you can organise it, we'll get married. And I went, okay.

So I organised it for February, gay Mardi Gras weekend actually. I organised it for Mardi Gras weekend and we got married. But it was an actual proposal. It was more like a... Wait, so you do the work. If you want to organise it, I'll show up. That's slack, man. Wait, still together now, Nicky?

Yes, 72 years. Oh, there you go. Okay. So yeah, just you just sort it out. We'll be there. No, I'll show up. Don't worry, I'll show up. We asked if you weren't happy with where you were proposed to, and man, some of these are a bit bloody

dodged. There's some bloody ungrateful sheilas out there. Amanda, you weren't happy with your proposal location? So it wasn't that I wasn't happy, I think my husband was disappointed. We were overseas in America with my family having an

amazing holiday. He thought, right, I'll propose on the gondola in Vegas. And then my nana was like, right, I'll pay for I'll propose on the gondola in Vegas. And then my nana was like, right, I'll pay for everyone to go on the gondola. So we all went on the gondola, and he was like, okay, well, I won't do it there. And then we got up really early at the Grand Canyon

to watch the sunrise, and then, bing, here comes my nana again. Oh, nana! I know, and then I was like, oh, why didn't you just tell me? And then, so, we ended up being in the middle of nowhere, and I was in the bath at the end of a long day on holiday, and he proposed while I was naked in the bath. Wait.

That's kind of cute. There's a couple of people who have been proposed to in the bath. I was like, nobody looks good in the bath, right? I know, it's all floating, and everything goes in a weird perspective. Things look, like, short. They've got really short legs, and you're like, what the hell? What are my legs, man? Someone said they got proposed to in the bath

and then they lent in for this really awkward hug. Have you ever tried hugging somebody who's in the bath? I don't think I have. And then the water flows over. No, I've never been in the bath. And then they just kind of knelt beside it and hugged them. Oh, that's weird. While they were in the bath.

That would be a tip, Amanda. Do not propose in the bath. Yeah. No. No. But hey, it's worked out, you know, so. Do not propose in the bath. Yeah. No. No. I would not propose in the bath. But hey, it's worked out, you know, so. Yeah.

Still good. Yeah, still going strong. Thank you, Amanda. I'll send messages in. So many. On his knees at pack and save, he dropped some groceries he was holding by the milk aisle and when he dropped down to pick them up, he had the ring in his pocket and he tried to decide on it. He was trying to decide on a good location and he thought, oh, well, I'm already down

here. Been married 18 years and never shopped at that pack and save again. No, you wouldn't want to go back, would you? Yeah. Wow. I never got proposed to. It was a drunken dare after six months of knowing each other in my mum's kitchen. Our fourth wedding anniversary is at the end of this month.

Oh, that's cute. Four years, still early days though. I proposed to my wife outside a villa we had rented on a vineyard in Tuscany after a seven course Italian meal. What's wrong with that? I'd been learning Italian for the last nine months. I'd also designed and had the ring custom made. To this day, all she can say about my proposal is,

you didn't get down on one knee. Right. I mean, you nailed the location. Yeah. Didn't get down on one knee. You don't have to. You don't have to. No.

It's a bit funny. It's a bit old-fashioned. Yeah. I you have to? No. It's a bit funny. It's a bit old fashioned. I was proposed to during lovemaking. That must be some good lovemaking. I proposed to her during. Soon later found out during. In the midst of. He was making all sorts of proposals to all the other women he was bedding at the same time too.

Oh, okay. My mum was also proposed to in the bath. Dad came home drunk and mum was having a relaxing bath And dad stumbled in and proposed to her We were on the Wellington waterfront at night Not a bad place to propose But lucky he asked when he did Because I was just about to say I'm too cold, let's go home

I'm too cold, let's go home My partner sat next to me On the bed And put his hand on his pocket Pulled out the ring And said I guess you want this then We lasted one year Oh yeah
