The ZM Podcast Network.
The Fletch, Fawn and Hayley Big Pod.
Great things are brewing at McCafe.
The perfect start to every day.
Good morning, happy Friday.
Welcome to the show, Fletch, Fawn and Hayley.
Two minutes past six.
I didn't realise it was Friday.
You got a comedy show in Christchurch?
Tonight.
Is it tonight or tomorrow night?
Tonight and tomorrow night.
Okay, right.
Whose Friday flashback is it?
Oh, good lord. Who went last, last time? I can't remember. Before Friday flashback is it? Oh, good Lord.
Who went last last time, Amber?
I feel like it was you, Fletch.
So we had three Fridays off because we stopped midweek, remember?
Yeah, we did.
We just said, you know what, we're out.
Yeah, it's been a while.
I think it's you, Vaughn.
Yeah, I have a feeling it's you.
Well, Pickle, we're going to need a banger because it's a miserable weather.
Yeah.
Across the country.
Cold start again.
I also woke up at 2.30 to watch a house get, you know, shipped in.
Oh.
You know, relocated.
Onto a section.
Onto a section.
And then my body just said, I guess that's it.
You're staying awake.
We'll just stay awake.
Was it exciting?
Where, what, like by your house?
Yeah, like literally
across the road and over like three. Oh yeah?
Yeah, I know. So they moved an old
villa onto it? Split in two. Oh.
Yeah, split in two. Split down the middle,
not front and back. That's interesting.
Oh, long ways. Yeah, like
for size. Like if you were going to cut a banana
in half, you'd run it from top to bottom, not
like across the hemisphere. No, it was
done like down the middle,
if you were looking at the front, down the middle.
It's just mind-blowing.
They just cut a house in half and move it.
It was so fascinating.
I got all excited.
So how did you know it was coming in at 2.30?
They told you.
I woke up from a fantastic dream.
Don't go into the details.
Orange flashing lights and a...
Yeah, and then I went for a wee-wee's,
and then there's a window that looks out from my bathroom, and I was like, what are these flashing lights and a dee dee dee. Yeah, and then I went for a wee-wees and then there's a window
that looks out
from my bathroom
and I was like,
what are these flashing lights?
And I said,
because I literally
looked at that section
and thought,
I hope they put
a relocatable on there.
You're awake now.
It is,
Jared has confirmed
it is your Friday
flashback porn.
So that'll be coming up
at eight o'clock
plus at eight,
a chance for you
to win that $25,000
because despite yesterday
being Thirsty Thursday
and giving you, what, 12
chances, it didn't go.
So another shot at 8 o'clock
to win $25,000
cash. The top six is on
the way. There has been an
investigation into airfare
prices with Air
New Zealand and some locations have gone up
300% in price.
Yeah, Consumer New Zealand did that.
And then Air New Zealand was like, no,
no, and then they've come out overnight
and said, no, no, no.
No.
I mean, I looked at going down, when did I Google
like Monday or Tuesday? To come down to
Christchurch with me. To go and see, like to go
and hang out with Hayley for the weekend and it was
shy of $870.
I looked again and it was $950 to come down today.
It's insane.
And then I was looking at flights for Melbourne recently
and it was $600 and something.
Return.
Yeah.
For a flight that's what, like three times as long.
Get a grip, eh?
Well, I've got the top six places
that Air New Zealand haven't increased their price in fares to.
Oh, okay.
Oh, excellent stuff.
Okay.
It's coming up in the top six next.
Well, you've got top six.
I've got the top ten.
I'm going to kick off a show with the top ten.
Okay.
The top ten pet owner icks.
Because there's been a survey done about pet owners and their behaviours.
They'll be all dog owners.
Like when they let dogs lick them.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah.
No, cats are way worse. No, dogs
are mankier. Dogs are mankier.
It's a fact. They stink.
That's why they can live outside. They stink. You have to shower
your dog. My cat showers itself.
We'll get to these icks next.
Play. ZM's
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
We all own animals.
Vaughan the most.
You have dogs and cats.
A ridiculous amount. And cows and chickens
and goats and pigs.
You don't have goats, do you? Yeah, I've got goats.
Oh, you do have goats. Me too. They were the OGs.
No, I know. What was I thinking of?
Deer. You don't own any deer.
No.
I don't. You don't own any deer. I don't have the fencing for it.
You don't have deer, wild buffalo.
No wild buffalo or a croc. I don't have a fencing for it. You don't have deer, wild buffalo. No wild buffalo or a croc.
I would love some wild buffalo.
I don't have a crocodile.
Get a croc, you puss.
Anyway, Phil and Fletch, you own a cat and I own a cat.
Yes.
So we all may be guilty of these pet owner icks
that according to the survey are the worst.
Surely not cat owners.
They've put it down to a top 10 of the yuckiest icks
that people are like, ew, yuck, why are you doing that?
How about pet owners?
Okay, good.
I personally don't do any of these.
Okay.
Because I'm very fussy about animals.
You might do some of them.
Okay, number 10, posting too many pictures of your pet.
That's an ick.
I don't post too many, but when I do, it gets a great response.
And I have in the past, and you do this,
I've considered giving Rolly an Instagram.
He's so cute. He's so cute.
He's so cute.
Major Murray's Instagram's quite quiet.
Oh, I know. Have you lost interest? He's bored. I'm bored.
I got bored of it. He's gone off-grid.
I did take some cute photos of him
yesterday being cute sleeping
on my bag. Yeah. Because he loves sleeping on my
bag and I was like, oh, maybe I'll post that and then I just
forgot. What bag? Your school bag. My school bag, yeah.
Your school bag.
He's like,
don't leave me again.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't you know there's
nothing to do here
when you're gone?
You abandoned me.
I'm going to rip your couch up
if you leave me again.
That's why he always
looks out the window, eh?
Yeah.
So I'm going to
throw myself out here.
Okay, number nine,
taking their pet
everywhere with them.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's an egg.
People who take their pets
on holiday,
leave them at home.
Okay, okay.
Leave them at home.
So when I was in, you know what, six or nine, when I was in Italy. Wow, that's an egg. People who take their pets on holiday. Leave them at home. Okay. Leave them at home. So when I was in, you know what, 609, when I was in Italy.
Wow.
First mention of Italy and it's only nine minutes into the show.
I went to a wine region.
I went to the Contrato Winery.
It's a UNESCO site.
It's beautiful.
We went on a wine tour, right, into this UNESCO World Heritage Winery.
Went down there.
These people running late turned up.
Three dogs.
Oh, no.
What kind of dogs?
Three dogs.
A mixture.
Like one was a spaniel, one was a mutt, one was a, you know,
they were cute.
But on a winery tour.
Yeah.
And at one point we're in these like, you know.
They have my fur babies.
One point it barked and it like echoed around the thing
and I was like,
oh.
Shut up,
this is a Unesco world here.
I'm trying to learn
about champagne.
So I hate that as well.
Number eight,
letting their pets
sleep in bed with them.
Now I do that.
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
But one cat's okay.
Like when you've got
two dogs and two cats.
No, they wake up
and they...
Oh, I love it.
It's lovely.
And then they sleep
between your legs
and you can't move
and then you're uncomfortable. I'll make room for him. I'll cling to the edge. It's lovely. And then they sleep between your legs and you can't move. Yeah, that's where it probably was last night.
And then you're uncomfortable.
Nah.
I'll make room for him.
I'll cling to the edge so he's comfortable.
No animals inside at all.
Okay, number seven, letting their pet lick your face.
No.
Yuck.
Yeah.
That's gross.
I saw someone do it yesterday and I was like,
that dog definitely looks like an ass licker.
Yep.
Dogs.
That dog absolutely chews on its ass.
It's yucky.
I don't like it.
And they eat the grossest things.
Yeah.
And then they lick your face.
Vomit.
All your food.
And then dog owners are like, kisses.
I don't know if this is on your list, but you know when that dog owners share an ice cream?
Hang on.
Okay, yep.
Shut your mouth.
Number six, dressing their pet in a costume.
It's funny.
It is funny.
It's funny.
I like the dogs with the carrying boxes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's good stuff.
Makes them look like they're humans.
Number five, letting their pet use a plate or bowl used by people.
Now, if we've finished our meal and we put it on the floor
and we're watching TV or something,
Rolly might come and lick a plate and we might turn a blind eye.
Yuck.
That's yuck.
Might turn a blind eye.
No, I grew up, one of my friend's mums would get ice cream
and then eat the ice cream.
But you know how the best part of the ice cream is the soup at the end.
Yeah, ice cream soup.
And she'd put it on the ground and the three cats would all have their head in the bowl.
They shouldn't be having that.
That's gross.
Yuck.
So these are the biggest icks.
Biggest icks from pet owners.
So there's some crossover here because now we've got number four
letting their pet, kissing their pet on the mouth.
Now, if Rolly let me, I would. But he doesn't.
He just turns, he doesn't like
being booped on the face. I'll kiss him on the head and
sometimes I like rub my nose
on his head like I'm his mum.
Like that.
Make him feel back at home. Here's the top
three. Back at home.
With his mum, who he was
ripped from as a kitten and put in a
plastic bag and hung on a door, okay?
Yeah.
So I liked it.
Mother him.
That's how I rescued my cat as well.
No, you did not.
It was bred for your joy.
You went and picked it up in a cage, yeah.
Ripped from its mother and put in a cage for you.
Number three, sharing a cup of tea with their pet.
This is from Britain, by the way,
so I mentioned there's lots of cups of tea.
It's not good for animals, eh?
The caffeine in coffee
Coffee can be extremely toxic to dogs
Maybe they're having a peppermint tea
Number two
Sharing a bath with their pet
Ew what dog
What kind of pet
I mean a small dog
A small dog eh
Yuck
Yuck
Yuck
And number one
Is letting their pet eat off their fork
Like eat food off their fork
And then be like,
they didn't eat with the same fork.
Yuck, that is disgusting.
That's yuck, man.
I don't do,
I'm happy to say I don't do a lot of those.
A vast majority.
I post photos and I...
I'll give it a little bop.
I'll give a bop.
I'll give a bop.
A rough mwah.
But that's it.
No, no licking and mouth stuff.
A dog kissed me on the mouth
like two days ago
and I was like, yuck.
And I've probably, I I was like, yuck.
And I've probably got all sorts now.
But the butt herpes on my mouth or something.
Convenient to blame the dog after you've been to Europe.
Oh, no, the herpes is from the dog. Oh, no, that dog gave me chlamydia.
It's crazy.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Now, appearing in September slash October,
depending on what device you use,
whether it's iOS or...
Satisfyer Pro 2.
Android or Satisfyer Pro.
I think Satisfyer Pro is a bit later in the year November.
Oh, they are updating those?
Yeah.
How do you update that?
Plug it into your computer?
Yeah.
Yeah, you plug it in and it downloads everything it's given you.
Or your data and you're like, far out that fast. The dildo algorithm. The d into your computer. Yeah. Yeah, you plug it in and it downloads everything it's given you. Or your data.
And you're like, far out that fast.
The dild algorithm.
The dild algorithm.
Yeah.
Well, eight new emojis have been approved by the Emoji Consortium Unicode.
Yeah.
They're the ones that are in charge of this.
I don't know how it works.
Really?
I just love the fact that there's something called the Emoji Consortium.
How do you get a job there?
And that they must just have a meeting and decide,
what do you think about the fried egg?
Yeah, I think it could have crispier edges.
More of an Asian-style fried egg.
We need some bacon.
Well, the eight emojis that we can expect at the end of the year,
face with bags under the eyes.
Oh, man, we are going to use that.
That's quite good.
Oh, we are going to use that. That's quite good. Oh, we are going to use that.
It's quite good.
I think a lot of people will use that.
The second emoji that has been approved, a fingerprint.
Oh, yeah, like, oh, my God, guys, pick me up from the cop shop.
Whoopsie doopsie.
Print, print, print, print, print.
Yeah.
A paint splatter, a purple, kind of like a cartoon.
It's great.
Just painted my bedroom purple.
Yeah, well, this would be great for you, a purple paint splatter. A root vegetable. Like a beetroot. Which looks like a beetroot. It's great. Just painted my bedroom purple. Yeah, well, this would be great for you, a purple paint splatter.
A root vegetable.
Like a beetroot.
Which looks like a beetroot.
It's red with green leaves.
It's the fourth emoji to be approved.
Feels like some kind of beet, doesn't it?
A tree-less, sorry, a leafless tree.
Oh, like a haunted scary tree.
It does look like a haunted scary tree.
Or autumn's here.
Yeah, we're also getting a harp.
Oh, perfect.
Everyone that plays the harp. Everyone that plays the harp.
Everyone that plays the harp.
A shovel, like just off to bury someone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, need you now.
Why?
What's happening?
Shovel.
Where that you both went to murder.
I was thinking you'd do the beach emoji and then the shovel,
like you're going to do the whole of the beach.
Like hot water beach.
No, but this is a garden, not a beach spade.
Yeah, it's a garden spade. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the
eighth emoji which has been approved
I don't think I'll ever use in my life
are the flag of Sark.
So it's... The flag
of what? Sark? Sark
is part of the Channel Islands
in the English Channel. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Apparently, because where does
your friend live? Guernsey.
They've got a flag and the other place has a flag.
Jersey and Guernsey.
Jersey and Guernsey.
Channel Islands, but Sark didn't.
Sark didn't, so now they get a flag.
So those are the eight new emojis.
Yeah, right.
That we can expect at the end of the year.
Yeah, wow.
But it is weird.
When you search emojis and there isn't one that you think there'd be,
you're like, why isn't there one of this?
I know.
What did I go looking for the other day?
I can't, you know, I always forget.
But I went looking for one the other day that I was like,
this is obviously an emoji.
You know how you type and then you put in the word.
It's the same when you search a GIF and you're like,
why isn't there one for this keyword?
You're like, you should write that down.
Well, next time there is one.
Because we make them, don't we?
We can make one. Oh, yeah, and we could be
the GIF.
GIF. You'd be.
Like when you were the only
GIF for that, what was that Netflix show?
The Fire Island?
And you were like guzzling Listerine?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because that guy said he'd do anything for
the bottle of water or something. Now, can we we please just for an update while we're on it

Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole. Silly Little Pole, how much sleep do you normally get?
The options, less than four hours, five to six hours,
six to seven hours or eight hours plus.
Oh, I just checked my sleep app.
I had eight hours, 28 minutes last night.
Delicious. This week, I've been reprioritising.
The first two nights, really good. 28 minutes last night. Delicious. This week has been, I've been reprioritising.
The first two nights,

Bed at 7.30,
sleep by 8,
up at 4.20,
like it's going well.
4.20.
For a big doobie.
Yeah,
for a huge doobie,
a little wake and bake.
But yeah,
last night I got excited about the house moving in,
so it's a work in progress.
Sometimes I can fluctuate
and have like five hours.
That's the best thing.
I know.
You don't realise like how much it helps.
Yeah.
Everyone was like,
are you getting jet lag from coming back from overseas?
And I was like, no, I think I live in jet lag.
Yeah.
We actually do.
Yeah.
So the lowest answer was less than four hours.
3% of people responded with less than four hours.
Oh, Hans, darlings.
The second lowest was eight hours plus.
21% of responders said,
I get eight hours plus.
Lazy.
Lazy.
Oh, wait, the second lowest response.
I thought you meant like that was the next option we gave.
I was like, wait, so we gave four hours and then eight.
No, no, no, I'm going in.
I'm working my way up.
And then five to six hours was our second most popular response.
Yeah.
23%.
53% of people are going between six and seven.
God, that's pretty good for an adult.
I only need about seven and a half, I think.
Seven and a half, eight.
I reckon I need 20.
Just to be up for four hours, be charming.
Some people, you know, only sleep five hours and they are fine.
Yeah.
And then some people, you know, they have to have 12.
And you're like, what?
Yeah.
They have to have 12.
Well, I don't know.
They sleep to be 12 or they get to have 12.
They're lazy.
Sarah said less than five.
Hashtag 15-month-old triplets.
Oh, my God.
Jesus. I don't think you Oh, my God. Jesus.
I don't think you'll ever sleep again because there's three children.
One of them's always going to be having a bad night.
And then when they leave home,
you're going to have three children of exactly the same age to worry about
the entire time.
If you have triplets, is it like having three kids?
Will they be the middle child like you were?
Oh, that's a good call.
I don't know.
Middle child? Yeah, how do they find their rank, eh? Yeah.
Because you would know which one was first, right?
Yeah. Oh, so you've only got
two boobs.
No, you grow a third one.
Oh, I did not know that. If you have triplets, you
grow a third one. God, that octomum must have
one hell of a bra. She lies down, she's
like a sow. Is there some kind of cheap
Timu device where you latch onto
both breasts but then it feeds into
three, into three
feeders kind of thing?
Some kind of dairy
milking system? Like that octobong
we made that time. Yeah, that octobong.
Except it was a
beer bong and you filled up this
reservoir and then it went down and it broke
into four and then each went down and it broke into four
and then each one of those
broke into two.
That was an engine,
a feat of engineering.
It was a feat of engineering.
And what a good night it was.
And then just fill up
the thing
and then everybody
turned their handles
at once and just
Yeah.
A lot.
Should have won a science fair.
Should have.
Yeah, we were 16 at the time.
Bong octobong.
Recall. Like Nicole but with an Bong octobong. Recall.
Like Nicole, but with an R.
Recall.
Recall.
Very interesting.
I answered this poll at 10.30pm and my alarm goes off at 4am.
Oh, my God.
So that's bad.
Yeah.
I've been there a lot.
Don't do that.
Another morm.

A little bit of chemical assistance.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wank, wank, wank, wank, wank, wank.

The grumpy one
I'm happy if I get five
Oh that sounds like grumpy

But I can't stay asleep
Perks of working 3 till 11pm. Shit sleep habits.
Shit sleep habits. Before this job,
4am was a sleep in.
Heavy haul pilot.
So my sleep's all effed up for my life now.
Oh, okay. Oh, God.
Shift workers. We get up early,
but at least it's regular.
If you were doing this one week, and then overnight
it's the next, and then the next, that's true.
That'd be hard.
Nurses, just a little...
Yeah.
We love our nurses.
We're just shift workers.
We're shift workers.
Shift workers.
Like the people that are making our biscuits overnight.
Yeah.
They're paid.
They're paid accordingly.
Everyone's paid.
The nurses aren't paid enough.
People baking our pies at 2am.
Take back the claps.
Take back the claps for the pie makers.
They know what they're doing.
Nurses.
This is for nurses.
This is for the pie makers and the biscuit makers and're doing. Nurses. This is for nurses.
And the biscuit makers and the nurses. This is for the underappreciated.
Everybody working overnight while we're all sleeping.
I'm not applauding just for nurses.
I am just applauding for nurses.
You're applauding pie makers?
Yeah.
Okay.
And nurses.
Everyone.
Everyone.
I get at least nine and a half and I'm still tired, says Nikita.
Hell yes.
Some people just need it, though.
Some people just need it.
Get it.
No, see, I think sometimes you sleep too much.
I think some people sleep too much.
Yeah, and you get overtired.
You're like, oof.
Usually six to seven hours, but decided to go back to uni while working full time
and trying to still have a life outside of it all.
So now I'm only four until I sort myself out, says Ruby.
Now, Ruby, I must say you must simply sort yourself out.
That is burning candles at both ends
and with a wax melter under the middle.
What's that thing you got with all the shingles?
Shingles. You get shingles.
Warm is working hard, wasn't it?
Doing it three hours a day.
Working hard or hardly working.
Let's talk about stress.
My sleep is limited because my husband snores like a fricking grizzly bear.
Get a sleep divorce.
Yeah, get a sleep divorce.
Yeah, separate sleep.
Or silicone earplugs.
No, that doesn't stop it.
It rumbles when it's that loud.
It rumbles.
It's right next to you.
Get a brown noise machine and sew a tennis ball into the back of his sleeping shirt.
Yeah, and some sedatives.
So when he rolls on it, he's like, ow.
Aren't people taping their mouth shut now?
Yeah, or they're using magnetic clips.
Have you seen those that kind of flee your nostrils apart?
Or you could go full sea turtle and ram a couple of straws up there
so that little...
Yeah.
Doesn't get the flap.
You could sea turtle it.
I don't know.
Is it an adenoid flap?
Don't know.
Don't know.
Flaps down.
At least 10 hours plus at the moment,
but honestly could still go for more.
I'm 23 weeks pregnant and the sleepiness is real.
Oh, yeah.
You're sleeping for two.
You are sleeping for two.
You're growing a human life, darling.
It's a shame you can't bank up that sleep because when you have that baby, you're about to lose a whole lot of weight.
Six or seven at night time, but often a cheeky one to two hour nap, which isn't included.
Goddamn nappers.
Nappers.
I had enough.
I had enough of these people sleeping enough at night and then having
an afternoon nap. You are literally
that person. No, I'm not.
I don't sleep enough at night. No, I haven't been napping.
I'll tell you someone that sleeps enough hours at night
and still manages to squeeze in a nap.
Your wife? You bet.
He's only saying that because it's 6.30
and she's still asleep. Oh, she's definitely still asleep.
I'd say for at least an hour and a half.
Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey.
Play ZM. There was a woman from Hamilton.
She was visiting Auckland and she was at the mall.
Yeah.
And she went into the chemist warehouse and they were looking at makeup.
She was with her 16-year-old daughter and her friend, her daughter's friend.
And she was aghast when she stumbled across a display showing what she originally did believe
were interesting-shaped Korean face vibrators,
but what turned out to be just your bog-standard vibrators.
Right?
And they're all bright colours and whatnot.
I didn't know that the Chemist Warehouse sold these things.
So last night on Facebook or Instagram or something,
I got targeted advertising for the Chemist Warehouse.
And I always go and just scroll across.
Yeah.
See if we've got a three pack of those tubes of Barocco I like,
you know, maybe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, gosh.
It is the Mitre 10 Mega of pharmacies.
Of pharmacies.
You go in for one thing, you leave with a bag.
I don't want to do a Hayley and say when I was in Italy and Spain,
but I needed to go to a pharmacy and they're real tiny.
When you were where?
When you were overseas.
But their pharmacies are like really tiny,
like small town, old, cute pharmacies.
But even in the big cities like Madrid,
there'd be tiny little stores and you're like, you need a chemist's Ma and Pa pharmacies. Yes. But even in the big cities like Madrid, there'd be tiny little stores,
and you're like,
you need a chemist's warehouse.
You need a chemist's warehouse.
This is embarrassing for you.
I know.
Spain and Italy.
So I saw these on the targeted advertising last night.
They've got a bit of everything.
I did not know.
Yeah.
And I was like,
oh, that's interesting,
but I wasn't appalled.
Well, it's worth noting
that chemist's warehouse isn't,
I'm just,
I'm reading this off the hero,
but chemist's warehouse
is not the only non-specialised
Kiwi retailer to sell sex toys. Life Pharmacy
has a range of vibrators. Woolworths
stocks those Durex little play accessories
like little things. This was a news story
in Australia or here last year, I
think, or the start of the year. Someone moaned
about seeing rings, vibrating
rings. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just said
vape stores have started stocking them. Yeah.
Like it's becoming more normal.
For a bacon and egg flavoured vape juice.
I'm going to grab a dildo while I'm there.
Bacon and egg flavoured as well?
Always.
Always. So she goes into the store
with her 16 year old daughter. She sees this sign.
She thinks what it is. And then she realises what they're actually made
of. And she said, oh my god, her daughter giggles.
Because her daughter who's 16 years old knows exactly
what they are. One was named the French tickler. Says the mum. And they had a bit of a laugh. She said she oh my God, her daughter giggles because her daughter who's 16 years old knows exactly what they are. One was named the French tickler, says the mum.
And they had a bit of a laugh.
She said she was mortified, shocked,
absolutely shocked is her quote,
to see something like this in the chemist's warehouse
right next to the lip gloss.
She did say, I feel like she's complained.
She's complained to the chemist's warehouse.
She's complained to the Advertising Standards Authority.
She's also complained because they've advertised them.
She's also complained to the Ministry for Children
to talk about social welfare.
Now, her quote, and I'm not wanting to rip this woman apart.
I understand she's allowed to raise her children however she wants to.
But the reason she was so aghast is because she said she doesn't want,
she doesn't think that it's acceptable to normalise people using things like this.
That's where I'm like, why not?
It's healthy.
It's just a different version of something that you're going to do anyway.
Also, your daughter's 16.
She's got a phone.
You think this is the worst thing she's seeing? I know. Give me
your number. I'll text you all the things I was doing at 16.
You'll be aghast.
You will have to write
many a formal complaint, my dear.
Anyway, so she's gone through
all these things, and
they are, as most
especially female-focused
fun toys are,
brightly coloured, and so she was like, you know, like children
could look at these and think they're toys but if you're a
child, you will not know what it is and it
will not infiltrate your brain. Do you think
she's embarrassed because she thought they were
like face messages?
She probably picked one up and put it on her face and that's
when her daughter started giggling.
We got, because you know with
Sex.Life, I got sent
so many toys,
like so many from Wild Secrets.
And one of them was one of those old school like wands with the big ends
that are really popular in America.
You had to plug them into the wall.
Not my thing.
And that made your TV reception go funny.
Yeah, it's a bit odd.
But we, like I took it home and I just use it on my like shoulders.
Like, it's really good.
How heavy duty is this thing? Yeah, I was like, if it on my like shoulders. Like, it's real good. I've got it on the bottom of the feet.
How heavy duty is this thing?
Yeah, I was like, if it's getting into my shoulder knots,
I don't know if it should be down there.
Anyway, I think with all the levels of complaints
that this woman has made,
they've all been kind of dismissed
because Chemist's Warehouse
hasn't actually done anything wrong.
They're within their rights to do it.
There was no sign saying like like sex toys, sex toys.
If you knew what they were, you were
of an age that you would understand what they were. Do you think they just need
to put them in the section with the lube
and the connies and the... No, but they are
they are, they said they're not
near the checkout. They're not near like the
kids stuff. They are where they are.
Anyway, and also... Maybe you need to put it
next to something really unsexy like
the kids wouldn't go near
The insoles
The hemorrhoid cream
The hemorrhoid cream
Bunion kind of
Your bunion devices
The socks that encourage
Circulation
Airplane socks
The old people

Yeah

From the panoramic ZM think tank,
this is the top six.
Air New Zealand has been confronted by Consumer New Zealand saying
some places have seen a 300% airfare increase.
It is insane.
It's disgusting. And's been a year round
because I've travelled a lot with my show and whatnot
and for God's sake
it's so much, like 500 bucks a time that I
don't want to go anywhere. Like if you want to go
somewhere for the weekend or a concert or whatever
you have to book months out.
But even then, where are those
old $99 flights or the $89
flights, $115.
They're gone.
Well, they did conveniently have a sale that started a couple of days ago
when this news broke from Consumer NZ.
Great.
But, I mean, they do have the grab a seat and stuff still.
Yeah, totally.
But as you say, when you go, you need to be somewhere specifically.
Shoot, it stings.
Consumer NZ compared 11 Air New Zealand flights in 2023 and 2024
and compared the same flights,
the costs of flights between 2019 and 2021.
All flights except one were more expensive,
with flights rising between 34 and 297%.
That's outright Tuesday.
I was like, no, they've made a mistake here.
9%.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
A return flight from Wellington to Hamilton for two adults with no luggage
booked two days in advance would have cost $281 in 2021,
but it would now cost $1,118.
Yep.
That's a 297% increase.
Oh, yeah.
There's no, like, the pre-pandemic, if you're like,
maybe I'll just go to Christchurch for the weekend or Wellington, you could
probably do it if there was not a big
event on. Couple of hundy.
But now, no way. New Zealand's head of domestics,
Scott Carr, said it's disappointing to see comparisons
made that are quite misleading. If you take 2021,
we're in the middle of a pandemic. We've closed
international borders. We're trying to reset our business.
We're trying to fill our empty flights. We're just trying to get
people travelling again. Fair point.
Fair point. Fair rebuttal.
Fair point.
Well, I've got,
he should have just taken this list because I've made a list of the top six.
Ask him if he wants to come to Christchurch
this weekend though.
Oh, he'll get staff discount.
He'll get staff discount.
Oh, down to 700.
Yeah.
Top six places at Air New Zealand
haven't increased price and fares.
Number six on the list, Swaziland.
Sure, that's because it changed its name in 2018.
Yeah.
But prices haven't changed.
Right.
It's a loophole.
Okay.
Because they don't fly there.
What's to do in Swaziland?
Go to the Swazi factory.
See how the jackets are made.
Yeah, right.
Do stuff.
Oh, there's a lovely game sanctuary. There's a lot of wildlife. Yeah. Yeah, right. Do stuff. Oh, there's a lovely game sanctuary.
There's a lot of wildlife.
Eswatini.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Number five on the list of the top six places in New Zealand
haven't increased price and fares.
Ceylon.
Ceylon.
It became Sri Lanka in 1989, but you could still say Ceylon.
It's Ceylon.
You're saying it's like a hair salon.
Yeah, Ceylon. Ceylon. C saying it's like a hair salon. Yeah, salon.
Salon like salon tea.
Salon, salon, salon tea.
Salon like Celine Dion rammed into one word.
Into one word.
Have you watched the documentary?
Oh, I can't.
No.
Sade watched it and she cried.
Yeah, I know.
I've watched Clash.
Sade's mum watched it twice.
Yeah, it's about her progression.
It's about her progression.
She goes into like seizures and like fully,
oh yeah, and I can't.
Yeah.
Side note.
I wasn't in the
mood for it.
No.
Sounds very sad.
Number four on
the list of the
top six places
Air New Zealand
hasn't increased
their price in
fares.
Abyssinia.
I mean, it's
been called
Ethiopia for a
long, long time.
Technically, you
could say, yeah.
If you get a
flight to Abyssinia,
it's still the same
price.
I'm getting the
feeling here, all
the airfares that aren't increasing are places that don't exist.
He's onto it and we're halfway through the list.
Number three on the list of the top six places in New Zealand that haven't increased price
are Persia.
Okay.
Right.
I love the things about Persia.
Right, yeah.
I'd love to go to Persia.
I'd love to go to Persia.
Persia.
Where are we off to next?
Bombay?
Number two on the list of the top six places in New Zealand that haven't increased price
are Yugoslavia.
Yeah, okay. Again, I don't... Oh, you increased price and fees, Yugoslavia. Yeah, okay.
Again, I don't...
Oh, you're right.
I don't think they go...
Yeah, right.
Well, it doesn't exist.
It's hard to go there if it doesn't exist.
So number one on the list of the top six places
that haven't increased their price and fees, the USSR.
Right.
I mean, you might hear the song and be like,
that'll be a great holiday destination.
Let's look it up.
Yeah.
Where is it?
I can't find it on a map anywhere.
It's gone.
New Zealand still haven't increased their prices to fly there, though.
That's a fact.
That's today's top six.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Karwin Jones, you are 20.
Yes.
It was literally my birthday this week.
I know.
Six.
Seven.
Six.
Eight.
Six. 26 years old. Eight. Six.
26 years old.
Yeah.
We wasn't too bad.
And that means that you left high school eight years ago.
Yeah.
Is that right?
I think so.
Something like that.
26, eight.
And you've just been invited to it.
She got held back a year of your account over that.
That's right.
Cab math.
And.
I was in smart math.
Thank you very much.
Sure. Cabbage. Anyway. Eight times seven. Thank you very much. Sure.
Anyway.
Eight times seven.
I don't know.
Proof.
Anyway, so you've just been invited to a school reunion.
Yeah.
So my school is very small.
So it was an intermediate and a high school.
And I would say that there was probably like.
Wait, it was an intermediate and a high school.
Usually it's a primary school and an intermediate.
Also, don't say I was top
of my class in maths or whatever you said
and then say it was, there were like
20 people there. Yeah, no, no, no, not
that small. What was your school called?
William Colenso College.
William Colenso College. Sounds like an advertising
agency. It sounds like one of those, yes,
it sounds like one of those colleges that's
in like an office building in town.
Yeah, yeah.
You know the kids who go to those weird buildings?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What is that?
Not Steiner, the other one.
AGC.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
World School.
He's World School.
He's like, what do you mean it's on Courtney Place?
That's so bizarre.
He was like a man, I don't know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right.
Okay.
So there weren't that many people.
It's a small school
I've just heard of him
He's got a big coloniser
Yeah he helped with the Treaty of Waitangi
I think
Helped
He helped did he
Yeah
He helped
His blankets and guns are so good
Oh my god
It's a good deal
Yeah yeah the bugs will come out
Yeah
Put it through the wash
Hot wash
Anyways
Quite a small school
So they don't do
Reunions that often.
Right. I think that
maybe there was one while I was there
and they haven't really, they do them every
like, I want to say 10 to 15
years maybe. I'm sorry but reunions are
just like, we don't need reunions
anymore. Yeah. Someone
wasn't popular at school.
Someone wasn't a go and doesn't want to come back.
You should go back now though because you're hot.
Yeah, you go back.
You've got a glower.
Without a shirt on.
You don't need it.
We've all got Facebook and ways to communicate now.
This is why reunions were a thing because you would never see people unless they lived in your town.
Are you still friends with many of your friends from high school?
Yeah, a couple.
Yeah.
And have you discussed with them whether or not you would go?
Actually, no. Because the thing is
if I'm going home, I'll see them anyway.
Yeah, exactly. And you see the people
you want to see. Yeah, and also I'd
probably run into the ones that I don't want to see anyways.
What's the school version
of population?
Population? What? No.
School, yes.
Enrollment? No. Enrollment? School roll? Yeah, roll, yes. Enrollment. No.
Enrollment?
School roll?
Yeah, roll?
Roll.
Roll?
Enrollment numbers?
How many?
You know, if you were going to go New Zealand,
you'd go New Zealand population.
But if I'm Googling William Colenso College,
there's a word. Size.
Size?
Students.
I mean, I would probably say it's like 500 or less.
No, no, no.
Like it's small.
But what's the word? That's going to annoy me. There's a word for it. No, no, no, no. But what's the word?
That's going to annoy me.
There's a word for it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like how many people go to a school?
How many people in your school?
Enrollment numbers.
Enrollment numbers.
Yeah.
Enrollment numbers?
I don't know.
And I think high school reunions are for people that peaked at high school.
School rolls.
Yes.
Yeah, that's fair.
No, they're for people who didn't peak at high school.
So you go back. If you've peaked post high school, hopefully it's Yes. Yeah, that's fair. No, for people who didn't peak at high school, so you go back,
if you've peaked post high school,
hopefully it's happening when you're peaking.
Yeah.
And you see people that have passed their peak,
and you're like,
what do you want to go and...
Attendance?
Yeah, I don't know.
Attendance?
Nah, that's how often they go.
I've just got no interest in high school reunions at all.
No, I've never been to one.
But the thing,
because they don't do them that often,
it's like everyone,
so like anyone can go.
It's not just my year group.
It's like all of the years.
No, they've got to do like
between the years of 2005, 2007 or something.
In 2019, we had a 20-year catch-up,
but it was only people
who were seventh form that year.
Or would have been seventh form that year,
but maybe just early.
Because I also went to a small school
and I think they did it in clusters, like three to four-year clusters.
But you'd go back to a high school reunion.
No, I wouldn't.
Yes, you would.
I went back to my high school maybe four years after I left,
when I was at drama school.
No, so it would have been like three or two years after I left,
and I gave a speech on following your dreams.
Three years after you'd left, When you were an unemployed student.
Then after drama school.
Did you walk past the kids and you're like, bummer, Dory,
I've been there. You're bummer, Dory. After that,
I gave a speech at their, like,
Leavers' Dinner, and I've never been back.
You gave a speech at the Leavers' Dinner? To inspire.
And I told them how
I worked in
theatre, but I also
cleaned my dad's company's toilets. Right. And that was my inspiring speech. And cleaned my dad's company's toilets.
Right.
And that was my inspiring speech.
And cleaning your dad's company's toilet paid more than ever for your theatre.
Tenfold.
Yeah, no, it's odd.
And I also think you're too young.
It's not like you're in your 50s.
That's the thing.
I was like, at what age are you supposed to go back to these things?
Never.
Never.
It doesn't seem like it was that long ago.
No, it wasn't really for you.
No.
No.
No, I don't think,
I think we could just give that one a skip.
Okay, cool.
As you say, go home to Hawke's Bay,
hang out with your friends
that you actually care about
and who care about you.
I'd rather go to Splash Planet for a day.
Oh, yeah.
At least they've got free drinks.
What if it's at Splash Planet?
With free drinks.
Ah, well, I might consider that then, yeah.
Splash Planet. So you want to go back consider that then, yeah. Splash Planet.
So you want to go to a school reunion and get in togs.
That's, to me, how I would rather jump off a bridge
than go to a school reunion in my togs.
Yeah, that's a terrible idea, isn't it?
Oh, God.
Final rankings. We's the final rankings.
Final rankings.
We do this every Friday.
Today we've chosen ways to stay warm.
We have indeed.
In the home because it's winter.
You've got your iron bar heater.
That was always my heater of choice because I never had a heat pump before.
This is the first time I've ever had one.
You'd be like a fin heater.
No, those ones that are like on wheels. No, that's This is the first one You'd be like a fin heater. Like those,
no, those ones that are like
on wheels.
No, that's an oil column heater.
Oil column heater.
Yeah.
A fin heater.
That's what I meant.
I've got one of those.
You did great.
I've got two of those.
They're great.
But you can't beat
a lovely fireplace.
Crackling fire, I know.
A crackling fireplace.
Though,
we've lit it twice.
It only heats
in a three foot radius.
No, it doesn't.
Ours is tiny and it does 130 square metres.
Apparently.
Pretty cold in it.
With one of those units that moves the heat around the house.
Yeah, nah.
The minute you've got a door, the fire's like,
oh, we don't go through there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And your bedroom's like...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, we don't go through there.
But if you've got a heat transfer unit of fires, okay?
But there's too much air in the room.
I grew up with fires.
I was always getting in the wood.
Yeah, it's annoying.
Getting in the wood, chopping the wood.
We had to spend a whole week in summer, like, chopping all the wood.
It's such a nice heat.
It's so different, too, because we've got a heat pump now and a fireplace.
Pause for applause.
Privilege.
Must be nice.
It is.
And we've been using the heat pump because it's easier, for sure.
But it's not as nice at all.
Yeah.
And you wake up and you...
I hate sleeping with it on.
No, don't turn it on.
You don't sleep with it on.
Nah.
You don't sleep with it on.
You wither.
Yeah.
You know what my father-in-law does?
You wait till about 5.30 in the afternoon,
you crank it on 28 degrees for an hour.
Yeah.
And then you turn it off
and just hope that that's going to stay
in a single glaze.
Like 21, 22.
You're supposed to leave it on.
Yeah.
Right. And if you're opening the doors and everything during the day, you turn it off then. But otherwise, when to keep it on like 21, 22. You're supposed to leave it on. Yeah.
And if you're opening the doors and everything during the day,
you turn it off then.
But otherwise, you leave it on a moderate temperature.
Leave a heat pump on all day.
Your power bill is through the roof.
Okay.
Way better than... What about a hottie?
Oh, yeah.
I love a hottie.
Hotties are great.
But then when they go cold in the morning,
it's like...
Yeah, that's what I'm not for.
Your cold, wet sack in the bottom of your bed
It's good to heat the bed
Just so you get in
And it's not freezing
Yeah
And then you're fine
Are we going to include things like
Robes and slippers?
Well yeah
Because I want to see those on
Before I see any
Heat pump with a t-shirt on
In winter
Screw you
Do you know what I mean?
Like get a
Yeah yeah yeah
Put on a jumper
Put on a jumper
I want to see some socks on.
Oh, brr, I'm cold.
All three women in my house.
Oh, brr, I'm cold.
I'm like, you're in bare feet and shorts.
We do have a suggestion from one of the producers
who I believe, do you have a free hour of power?
Because some places do this, don't they?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Love an hour of power.
So what we do is after cooking,
well, you just turn it on
and do all your day's cooking in the hour of power
and then afterwards
crank it as high as possible and then leave the door open.
Oh yeah, keep the oven open. Wait a minute, what are you doing?
Are you saying you're using the oven to heat?
Yeah, 100%. Well it's a free hour of power
Vaughan, it's free. And I run the dryer
with the door open, like the little wardrobe
door open. I have a small apartment so
I just run the dryer. How the hell have you
jimmied your dryer so it works with the door
but you're saying the door of the
cupboard that it's in. Yeah, it's in like a hallway cupboard
so I just open that up. That's a wet room.
Yeah, very. The ceiling's peeling
off. Oh, darling.
Okay. But it keeps me warm. Yeah.
And it's free. I do know
some people that have done that. The free hour of
power and they just turn everything on. Crank it.
Okay, I'm gonna go number one turn everything on. Crank it. Okay, I'm going to go number
one is a fireplace. I love it. Same.
It's so toasty and romantic
and just nice. It crackles beautifully. I'm going
number two, the oil heater and three
hottie. Dude, what is this?
This is not the 1950s.
I love it.
He lives alone. I'm going to go a booty.
I don't have a heat pump. A booty.
Crawling up against someone's booty.
Oh, yeah.
That's nice, man.
When you're like, give me a bit of that caboose and it's a hot rump and you hop onto it and
you're like, and you leech the heat.
Oh, no.
Okay.
I'm going number one.
Number one fireplace.
Number two, a booty.
Number three, a cat.
Cats?
Too small.
And annoying.
No, I was cold.
Downsides to all of these eight sources. I was cold yesterday
and I had my legs out on the little chaise lounge.
Must be nice. Privileged pause for applause.
And then Raleigh hopped on me with his hot little bot
and it warmed me toasty. No way.
All of your warm points have got down points.
Hotties go cold. Fires
are a pain in the ass to run.
And cats die. And cats wriggle
and then they die.
How dare all of you.
No, that's me.
Fireplace, booty, cat.
What's the downside to jumping up on a beautiful booty?
Yeah, because it could lead to something even more hotter and steamier.
Yeah.
Well, if I'm behind on the booty.
Oh, and then you've got to get up and have a shower and then get back in the bed.
And then you're going to get cold getting back in the bed.
Are you having a shower immediately afterwards?
Yeah, wash all that gross sex dress off.
Yeah.
If you have sex in your marital bed in the middle of the night or whatever,
you're getting up and having a shower.
There's never sex in the middle of the night.
It's scheduled.
Oh, God.
It's on the roster.
It's on the roster.
Oh, for God's sake.
I'm not marinating in that.
No.
Oh, my God, I don't.
Maybe you're white.
That's why you're riddled with UTIs.
No, always a wee.
Always a wee.
Once you go a wee, you might as well have a shower.
Got another yeast infection.
Yeah.
No.
I'm almost two seasons without.
Number three for me.
Yep.
Socks.
Put them on.
Oh, yuck.
Socks in bed.
Yuck.
Not in bed.
In general. If you've got cold feet in bed, yuck. Not in bed. In general.
If you've got cold feet in bed, get a duvet.
Grow up.
Get better circulation.
Second duvet's got to be on the list.
Second duvet's pretty good.
Second duvet's...
Actually, I might say, Chase, second duvet on for the bed warmth.
I'm double duvet.
Number one is the heat pump.
It's number one.
It's the best of both worlds.
You're so boring.
I mean, if I could have more.
You shower after sex and you like heat pumps.
You're such a bore.
Yeah, you're so white and boring.
You shower after sex.
Stop it.
You're both boring.
Let it marinate.
No.
The queen of UTIs over here.
I'm two seasons.
The old dry starfish.
Dry starfish. She's a dry starfish. Why, are you getting sweaty or something? She's a dehydrated starfish. Dry starfish!
She's a dry starfish.
She's a dehydrated starfish.
How much effort are you guys putting in?
The starfish that got caught on the rock when the tide went out in the middle of summer.
She's a mean.
That's how she's like, maybe a wipe?
I don't know.
Everything's pretty dry.
Everything's pretty normal.
Play ZM's Fletch Okay, I am so glad.
I didn't realise what this was until I saw it
and then I'm now so glad we're talking about this.
Everywhere on TikTok and Instagram,
people are like, it's like running talk
and you can follow people running everywhere.
And then slowly but surely everyone started wearing
these little running vests
these little like
I guess you'd wear them
for a marathon
yes
so that you can keep
your like a couple
of little drink bottles
and some jowls
yeah like your carb hits
and your sugar things
and all that
I think more used
by like ultra marathoners
or people that
what are those
when they run the trails
what's this when they run he's doing the little yellow pages youers or people that, what are those when they run the trails? What's this?
When they run.
He's doing the little yellow pages.
You know the people that run the mountains.
Trail runs.
Trail runs.
More for trail running, I think.
Because you need a few like little scroggins.
Yeah, and if you're in your shorts and your little top,
there's nowhere really to like put it.
So you wear this vest.
And now everywhere, whether you're running an ultra trail run marathon
or you're learning to run a kilometre, you've got to have the vest.
You've got to have the running vest.
And everyone's been sharing them online, like,
this is what's in my vest.
It's my lip balm.
Here's my sunscreen.
Here's my little gel.
Here's my blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then I felt the other day like I needed to buy one of these running vests.
Now, the problem there is, I don't run.
I can't even tell you the last
time. Vaughn, you run a bit, but
Yeah. Do you run
long enough that
you need a vest? Well, I'm mostly
sick to the treadmill because that's where my knees
like to be. Even though
when you did a marathon or a half,
there's no need for a vest. I never had
a vest, but like the real long runs,
I had one of those like belts.
A fanny pack.
Semi-fanny pack.
Semi-fanny pack.
A semi-fanny.
But is that because your headphones were plugged in
and you needed to like put your iPhone there?
Well, probably.
Yeah.
No, but no, it was.
Your headphones were plugged in.
Because the cord, by the way, where's the cord going to go?
I remember doing a whole half marathon with a cord.
It had those little jelly things.
But it was small and you'd put a thing over it and you couldn't really see it.
Now it's like the must-have item.
A running vest.
You cannot be a runner.
Well, you can, but you can't film it and put it on social media.
You cannot be a runner in this day and age, especially Gen Z,
without one of these running vests.
I seriously was like, yeah, these look cool, man.
And the girls look cool,
even though I'm getting those kind of wraparounds.
Wraparounds, yeah.
Glasses.
And then the vest.
Oh, like the 1990s quicker plays and stuff.
Yeah, yeah, they're back in.
How has this happened?
Because we talked about the fishing vest.
Yeah.
But that was more of like a hack.
That was a flying hack for like. Wear a fishing vest on a plane. Yeah. And put all your. But that was more of like a hack. That was a flying hack for like...
Wear a fishing vest on a plane.
Yeah.
And put all your...
But maybe fishing vests will come back.
I could see you doing a fishing vest, Vaughn,
around the farm let.
We've talked about the fishing vest
because there was that thing about you ditch your carry-on luggage
and you just wear a fishing vest and load it up, right?
I reckon you...
No, I'm not a fishing...
Literally just said that.
Literally just said that, Vaughn.
Dude, good morning.
Welcome to the show.
Are you here?
Well, I thought...
The producers both laughed at that.
I was trying to find...
I was Googling what is...
I want a link to what you guys are talking about
because I...
I can't imagine anybody wearing...
You'd wear a fishing vest as you carry on
to put all your stuff in it.
Well, yeah.
Wait, tell me more about this.
You'd take all your stuff out of you,
you'd get rid of your carry-on and just wear a fishing vest
with all the pockets for it.
Do you know, Vaughan,
being a farm boy who, like, cuts work.
I've got a high-vis, I'm sorry.
Oh, no.
We'll come back to this.
Yeah.
I was going to say that people
will want to see content of you,
like, doing your farming
in the fishing vest,
but nothing else.
Producers, Gen Z producers,
is this something that you would be wearing?
Yes, I want one.
Why do I Google to find?
I'm not finding what I would consider to be anything.
Cool running vest.
Cool running vest.
And then it will pop up.
Just running.
Oh, you've been seeing them.
I've been seeing them everywhere.
I'm not a runner.
I barely walk, but I want one.
It's at the stage now where you don't have to. You're just in your active
wear wearing one, right? And you go out for a little
Sunday walk. Well, you put one on for 12.30, chuck on
your Grimace slides and go down to the
rubbish bin downstairs in your
pyjamas with your running vest. People are going to be thinking,
you're a lunatic. Yeah, that's
good stuff. I just think it's so funny
seeing these young chicky babes
running, excuse me, that little apple
burp came up, running 5K with a vest.
You'll be all right.
You'll survive 30 minutes without access to.
Is it a vest for warmth or has it got a camel pack in it?
It's a fashion, babe.
It's fashion.
It's fashion and function.
It's not function.
You put your phone in, you put your lip balm.
But also I think it's kind of like the mentality.
Like you chuck on your little wraparound sunnies, you strap yourself in and off you go for a little 3K trot.
You're not doing the bloody coast to coast, Shannon.
Coast to coast?
Come on, Shannon.
It's not coast to coast.
Getting your kayak?
Jesus.
I would not survive the coast to coast,
but I could do a 3K trot with a little gel in my vest.
I know, but you don't need to have a gel three kilometres into a run.
Yeah, I do.
You'll be all right.
You've just left the house.
That's around the block.
Yeah, I think you're just being a bit pessimistic here.
Whatever gets you going on a run.
Would you call me?
But not puffy.
No, it's smaller.
It's like cropped.
It's like cropped by length.
It's kind of like, and you clip in.
You've definitely seen people. Hang on. Yes, please. Yeah. It's just quarter mile length. It's kind of like, and you clip in. You've definitely seen people.
I'll show you.
Hang on.
Yes, please.
Yeah.
It's just motivating as well.
You're not showing me anything.
I'm just seeing text.
Hang on.
It's this.
Yeah.
It's just a vest.
She's got a sunblock in there.
She's taking too much stuff.
She's carrying it too much.
I know.
She's going around the block like Shannon.
Three Ks.
It's ridiculous.
It's fashion.
It's not functional.
Also, I think it's sizist
on the breasticles
because if you've got
big breasts,
you're not shoving
phones and sunblock
and lip balm
on your boobs.
Yeah.
I think it's a bit
of extra support
though as well.
Strap yourself in.
You'd be top heavy.
You'd be running
and be top heavy.
You'll topple over.
You'll topple over.
You'll simply topple over.
Yeah.
Play.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
So the lovely Noah Khan, who sings this song.
As I promised, I just wrote a night of threading on around.
And I was looking at my father in this COVID and down.
COVID on the plane.
COVID on the plane.
I actually really like this song.
Yeah.
The whole album actually
is really nice
beautiful album
so he
he has shared a story
of how he ended up
in hospital
after eating
sunflower seeds
I went to the hospital
for eating too many
sunflower seeds
it was so brutal
and I
I was watching training day
and so I was like
just eating sunflower seeds
because I didn't want to go to the store
and I ate two whole bags
tried to take a s***
screaming on the toilet
I drive myself to hospital
and this old lady
gave me this oat milk stuff
that I had to show up
my butthole dude
and I passed an enema
while watching
an international
friendly soccer game
that is a wild
a wild clip
21 seconds
so much happened
so much happened
I was like
oh yeah okay
so the seeds you know too much whatever and then he's like I had to, oh, yeah, okay. So the seeds, you know, too much, whatever.
And then he's like, I'll just shove it up my butthole.
Wait, wait, wait, what?
Why is it going up your butthole?
So two big bags of sunflower seeds.
Two massive bags of sunflower seeds.
Clogged him up.
Because what?
In my mind, he eats these two bags of seeds over the course of training day,
which is, what, a two-hour movie?
A great movie.
Great movie.
It may even be three hours.
Maybe it was longer.
But then, I need to know how long after it kicked in.
He also almost makes it feel like he's still watching the movie
when the sunflower log starts making its way through his system.
Yeah.
Also, the issue was that the sunflower seeds had the shell on them still.
So there's like stuff that wasn't digestible.
Yeah.
Oh, right.
The husk of it.
And they were raw, the husk.
Well, wait, I have sunflower.
Two hours, two minutes.
Two hours, two minutes.
I have sunflower seeds every day at my breakfast.
Are there shells on them?
I thought they were deep.
Yeah, but not two bags full.
Nah, it's just a small amount.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The stomach can probably take care of a few.
Like a pinch of sunflower seeds.
So quite a few people are commenting being like, yeah, man, they stuff you up.
I was like, what?
Anyway, very dumb reason to end up in the hospital.
Yeah.
And I believe there are more dumb reasons why people ended up in the hospital,
and that's what I want to know this morning.
Okay, what is the dumb reason you ended up in a hospital? Yeah.
Was it something you ate? Was it a
silly accident?
You stick something inside yourself.
And then like, what do you, because you have to go in
and see like the person at the desk
at A&E and be like. Hey, I glued my
hand to my face.
I glued my hand to myself.
People would do that. Superglue is
so sticky. So strong.
And so strong.
Yeah.
Yeah, there would be stories like that for sure.
Really embarrassing stuff.
Okay.
That's what I want to know.
Give us a call.
0800-DARLES-AN-AMAZON number.
You can text through 9696.
What is the dumb reason you ended up in hospital?
We want to know the dumb reason you ended up in hospital
because Noah Khan, singer of Stick Season,
ate too many seeds and it hurt his butt, I guess.
Apparently, too many sunflower seeds.
They'll clog you up because the body can't digest bulk amounts.
Yeah, bulk amounts.
Yeah, so that's something new that we've learnt today.
Amy, what was the dumb reason you ended up in hospital?
I did a roly-poly and put myself in hospital.
I mean, they're actually harder than they look.
I tried to do one the other day and was like, ow.
I did one as an adult and ruined my neck for six months.
When were you doing a roly-poly forward rolls?
Yeah.
It was forward and I was like five years old.
So you'd think I would know how to do it as a gymnastic kid.
Oh, okay.
And that put you,
see, I thought you did an adult roly-poly.
Yes, I know.
Adults shouldn't be doing roly-polies.
No.
No, I sprained my neck, almost broke it.
As a kid.
Oh my God.
You've got to tuck and roll.
Tuck and roll forward.
You've got to tuck.
You do have to tuck.
Amy, thank you.
Lawrence, what was the dumb reason
you ended up in a hospital?
Oh, you know, I was getting ready for work, as you do.
And I was relieving some nighttime stress.
Yes.
As I was getting ready for work.
Of course.
I had a wee intrusive thought and bent it sideways.
Oh, for God's sake, Lawrence.
Why sideways?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Thank you for dancing around that story, by the way.
You've done really well there.
Somewhat of a poet.
Yeah.
So did the string snap?
No, no, no.
The whole tree turned into a half tree.
What? It snapped halfway up the tree turned into a half tree. What?
It snapped halfway up the tree or it broke off into base?
There's no bone in there.
No, but you can break.
Oh, my God.
It snapped halfway up the tree.
You've got cartilage hoses.
Yes, you do.
Yes.
Which tore, basically.
Lawrence.
How aggressively were you trying to release this tension?
When you went into the hospital, what did you say to them?
Well, here's the thing.
I had a half an hour drive in,
and I was coming up with all sorts of scenarios,
and I drew a mind blank,
and all I managed out was,
I've snapped my dick.
Snapped my dick.
That's all you can say.
I thought you were going to say slipped in the shower.
Yeah.
Mid lovemaking, There was a whoops
No no there was no lover involved
No
Laurence
Thank you
Good man Laurence
Thank you for sharing
So many wild stories coming in
We'll get to those next
We want to know
The dumb reason
You dumb dumb idiots
With rocks in your heads
Ended up in the hospital
Because Noah Khan Ate some seeds And ended up in the hospital because Noah can't eat some seeds.
And ended up.
So many of the text messages started with,
decided it would be a good idea, or decided it would be a great idea,
or I decided it was a good idea.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, great.
Like, so many, yeah, soon to learn it wasn't.
I decided it was a good idea to chop some kindling with a tomahawk axe
after a few wines.
I sliced my finger three quarters of the way through.
That was dumb.
I decided it would be
a great idea to jump down
a whole flight of stairs.
Landed on my head
and cracked my skull
on a radiator
and ended up having
to get my scalp
stitched back on.
Stuck off.
I can't.
Stuck.
Yes.
Yuck.
I was getting ready
for bed and getting out of jeans.
I got one foot out
and then when I went to put it down
it got caught in the crutch of the jeans
I tripped and fell backwards
put my arm down to break my fall
broke my arm
ended up in hospital
do you know what
it would be fun
being the person at ACC
that gets all the forms
like why did you get injured
oh yeah
oh it'd be so good
oh yeah
and you'd be like BS
take a photocopy
and then when you leave
write a tell all book
yes called ACC's best injuries anonymous ACC's yeah yeah Oh, yeah. And you'd be like, BS. Take a photocopy and then when you leave, write a tell-all book.
Yes.
Called ACC's Best Injuries.
Anonymous ACC's.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
My dumb husband went hunting with a moon boot on and fell onto a deer's antler and it went through his hand.
You're that sharp on the end, eh?
Sharp on the end.
Yeah, they are.
I'm high to blow up a slide for my son's fifth birthday.
Once the kids left, we had the great idea to put dishwashing liquid in a hose on it.
Don't do that.
So this is my son's fifth birthday.
Then they say, my dad went down it.
Oh, yeah. So this is a granddad coming down the slide.
Took me out at the ankles.
It would have been fun to see, though, because you know, the dad would have come down so fast. The person probably flipped. Yeah, It would have been fun to see that because you know the dad would have come down so fast
the ankles would have got hit
and the person probably flipped
Yeah, it would have been a good video.
It was just a sprained ankle
so I kept walking around
couldn't walk in the morning
went to hospital
three broken bones and a torn ligament
four surgeries over two years
because of that silliness.
You're a dumb dumb.
Oh my god.
I was impatiently trying to separate
a brick of frozen sizzler sausages.
Delicious.
Pause for the sizzlers.
Frozen sizzler sausages.
It's so good you've got to freeze them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't freeze these, love.
They probably won't last for eternity otherwise.
You don't freeze sizzlers.
That vacuum.
How, like, unless you've got a deal of, like, 80 packs of sizzlers.
Yeah.
They'll probably just be right in the fridge forever, I reckon.
I think those would last like a nuclear
fallout.
Oh totally.
We'll be eating those
after the great war
of 2024.
Is it this year?
Yeah I'm sorry
I shouldn't have
I promise I wouldn't
I'm a member of
the Illuminati.
You're a member of
the Doomsday Preppers.
Yeah I've been
fast forwarding this one.
I was impatiently
trying to separate
a brick of frozen
sizzler sausages
had one of those
super sharp Swiss knives.
No, stop. Stop, stop, stop.
No, because it gets dumber.
They were holding the sizzlers in one hand
and stabbing at it with the other hand.
You dumb!
He ended up going straight through the sizzlers
straight through my hand.
That's actually
how Jesus got the scars.
He was trying to separate some frozen sizzlers.
Some frozen sizzlers.
Oh, they say he was nailed to a cross.
They say he was.
I've lost total sensation on one of my fingers now.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
There's another one.
Trying to separate two pieces of frozen fish.
Thought it was smart to use a bread knife facing downwards.
I've done this before.
Too strong for my own good.
Broke the fish open.
And it broke the fish and the knife continued to slice my hand open.
Oh, don't put your hand under this.
Oh, okay.
You guys probably don't open a lot of sacks in your life.
A lot of sacks.
A lot of sacks.
I don't.
Maybe a sack of onions.
Okay, so a sack of onions might have it.
Have you ever got one where the sack is sewn shut?
And there's a, yes, sort of a little tab on the front,
and you grab that and you...
One of life's great satisfactory moments is like pig meal,
chicken food or whatever when I'm opening the sacks.
You get the tab and you...
I've done that.
I've done that.
Feels good, right?
It's lovely.
So I've always wanted to see the machine that does it.
Well, my partner worked for an onion pack house.
He was threading the industrial sewing machine that seals the sack shut
and accidentally set it off.
Sewed his hand together.
Oh, my God.
Please tell me she got to go.
Have it had the little basic tail over the front?
Yeah.

Nope.

Okay.
I bet you a hundred bucks it's not Ah-Sandra.
I hope it's not an A.
I was going to put Paul-ah, but then there's Paul,
so you wouldn't do that, would you?
Yeah, no, you wouldn't do Paul-ah.

The show Bible.
Mary.
You get the show Bible.
Mary.
Where is the show Bible?
God, it's been a while since we've found the pages, isn't it?
Actually, I'm concerned now. Where is the show's Bible? I'm not been a while since we've thumbed the pages, isn't it? Actually, I'm concerned now.
Where is the show's Bible?
I'm not sure.
The show's pride flag is there.
Now, the Bible.
Heavy on men.
I don't know.
We need a female name.
We need a female name.
The ladies were mothers and prostitutes.
Eve.
Yep.
No A.
So I'm not putting it on the list.
Oh, my God.
I feel like you're shitting yourself in the foot.
What was Noah's wife's name?
Tegan's going to be listening

Mrs. Noah.
Um...
The feminists hated this one.

Yeah.

It was really Sharon's Ark.
Noah built it for Sharon,
but then he had to use it.
Who was maintaining
the Ark day-to-day?
Sharon.
Sharon.

She made that Ark a home.
Yeah. Otherwise it was just a big boat. Any Ark could be a Sharon. Sharon. Yeah. When they were at sea. She made that Ark a home. Yeah.
Otherwise it was just a big boat.
Any Ark could be a boat.

Okay, good.
Next question.
Um,
who's mum's dream man?
Like,

He's a bit of a right.
Like Jeremy Clarkson.
Wow.
I thought you were
going to say Jeremy Wells
and I'm like,
I know Susie,
Susie,
Stephen Sharp,
he's really...
Oh yeah,
the mums love him.
Yeah.
He's a bit naughty and cheeky.
She likes David Beckham's face
but she always has a shame
about his voice.
Yeah,
he's a bit of a shame
about his voice.
He's a bit of a shame.
You're not exactly
a voiceover artist,
mum.
Um, Donna. That's a Donna attitude. Big Donna energy exactly a voiceover artist, Mum. Um, Donna.
That's Donna.
Big Donna energy.
David, oh, he's the best of me.
Yes, David.
Well, she'd shut his gobby mouth.
So that's her dream face.
What kind of body is she into?
Do you think she's into like a real muscly dude
or like a bit of a podge?
Uh, kind of in between.
Like, just kind of skinny.
It sounds like she likes an athletic man.
Yeah.
Like, if she's going David Beckham.
Yeah.
Anna.
Anna.
Okay.
Joe Anna.
You're not going to call a kid Joe Anna.
Anna's off the list.
Anna's not.
What's mum's hobby?
Like, what's her top hobby or a few of her hobbies?
She loves reading. Is reading a hobby? Do we count reading as a hobby? Like what's her top hobby or a few of her hobbies? She loves reading.
Is reading a hobby?
Do we count reading as a hobby?
Yeah, reading's a hobby.
Okay.
It's not a job.
She recently took up knitting because my brother just had a baby.
Knitting?
Put a Jeanette on there.
Jean.
Jeanette.
Jeanette.
She's a nana now.
Oh, yeah.
She's knitting.
So she's got to have a name that also does well with nana or nanny. Oh, yeah. So she's got to have a name that also does well with Nana or Nanny.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Or.
Because I've got the feeling she won't just be like Nana.
My mum's just Nana.
She's not Nana Christine.
She's just Nana.
Yeah.
I feel like this one is a Nana, insert name here.
Nana Bev.
But it's also, then I'm telling you, it's also got to be a name.
It doesn't have an A.
It's got to have an A in it.
But it's also got to be one that can be cutesied up a little.
Like a little nickname based on the name.
I think Bev, Beverly.
No, because there's no A in Bev.
This here is.
Bev-arly.
Yeah, Bev-arly.
Or Beverly.
Okay.
Beverly.
See, it could be Stephanie.
There's an A in there and it could be Nana Steph.
But Stephanie.
No, I'm not feeling that.
Okay.
Have you got enough?
I've got one more question.
One more question.
Up your sleeve.
Okay.
How old is mum?
She's 51 this year.
51?
Okay, you've gone too old.
I've gone too old.
You have.
You've gone far too old.
Warned this woman is nearly your age.
Oh my God, she is.
You called me middle-aged earlier in the show.
I'm just getting you back.
I see.
Your mum would have been, she's 51, I'm 42,
so she would have been like finishing high school just before I started.
And she's a nana.
And a bit more.
Jesus Christ.
I think Tegan might be quite young.
Tegan feels young.
Okay.
I think a lot of your names fit, though.
Yeah.
I'm happy with my list.
I'm happy with my list.
You're not adding anything at 51.
I might as well take some out of anything.
I might put it...
No, I already got Emma on the list.
We've got time to read them all out.
I don't think it matters.
Yeah.
All right.
I think you've shot yourself in the butt with no A's.
I'm Suzanne because it's got an A in it,
but it's also Nana Sue.
Okay. Do you know what a name it's also Nana Sue. Okay.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Nana Sue.
Okay.
All right.
We want birth name.
Add that.
Well, you may have shot yourself in the list only going A's, names with A's, but here we
go, Tegan.
We're going to give Vaughan 15 seconds now to read out his list of names.
If you hear your mum's name, yell out, stop.
That's my mum's name.
Your time starts now.
Sarah, Catherine, Karen, Andrea, Tanya, Amanda, Sandra, Tracy, Mary.
That's my mum's name.
Which one?
Actually, Hayley said that she paid $100.
It wasn't.
It's Sandra.
No, I said it wasn't a Sandra.
I knew it could be Sandra.
I thought he said a Sandra.
I beat you $100.
It's not a Sandra. I beat you $100. It's not a Sandra. I beat you $100. It's could be Sandra. I thought he said Asandra. I bet you a hundred bucks it's not Asandra.
I bet you a hundred bucks it's not Asandra.
I bet you a hundred bucks it's not Asandra.
Yeah, I meant the name being Asandra.
One name.
Yeah, I know what you're...
I'm not paying money.
Amanda, it's Asandra.
You're trying to stitch me up.
So what we're going to do is get $100
and then Hayley's going to top that up
out of her own personal finance.
No, because her mum's name is not a Sandra.
It's Sandra.
It's Sandra.
Wow, you got it, though, and it did have an A in it.
It has two A's in it, in fact.
And that means you've fired off.
The bonus round.
While you're on the phone, I'll have a go at guessing your dad's name.
One guess at the dad's name, Vaughn.
So, Sandra and Steve. Steve and Sandra. No, that's so stupid Vaughn. So Sandra and Steve.
Steve and Sandra.
No, that's so stupid.
Andrew.
Matt and Sandra.
Andrew.
Sandy and Andy.
Sandy and Andy.
And Nana Sandy works.
Nana Sandy, Grandad Andy.
Grandi Andy.
Pop Andy.
And Nandi Sandy.
Why don't you hit Steve?
I've got a big Steve.
Sandra and Steve.
Sandra and Steve.
That could work. Sandra and Steve. It could work.
Sandra and John.
It's got to be Andrew.
It feels so right.
It did feel right.
Andy.
Sandy and Andy.
Sandy and Andy.
I forgot to put on the boot.
Boot got put on the foot.
I could be wrong.
It's your game.
It's your guess.
No, no, yeah, we'll go Andrew, I reckon.
You go Andrew.
Teagan, what's your dad's name?
His name's Mike.
Mike and Sandra. of course it is.
It's so obvious.
Yeah, Mike and Sandra.
It's literally so obvious.
Every second parents are Mike and Sandra.
It's Mike and Sandra.
Yeah.
If my parents weren't going to be Patsy and Craig,
they were going to be Mike and Sandra.
Yeah.
Hey, congratulations, Tegan.
$100 is yours for winning.
I bet I can guess your mum's name.
Well done.
And our love to Sandra.
Love Sandra and Mike.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Fact of the day
for eating fact, like world records.
Yes.
Then I started researching and I was like,
this is just far more interesting.
Joey Chestnut, according to MajorLeagueEating.com,
is the number one in the world at eating. Okay. Joey Chestnut, you to Major League Eating.com, is the number one in the world
at eating. Okay.
Joey Chestnut, you've probably heard of him. He's the guy that always
wins the hot dog eating competition. Yeah, I have.
And I'm looking at this list
going through Americans
fairly well represented. Yeah.
Florida, Georgia, Las
Vegas. But then number four is
James Webb from Sydney, Australia.
Oh! Thought that was very interesting.
Mayur Ibn Hara from Japan is in at place 11, female.
Now, it's not until you, if you're scrolling down the list,
you get to number 26, Eric Badlands Booker,
that you would come across someone that you're like,
that would be classed as obese, which is pretty crazy.
You can get that far down the list of the world's best competitive eaters
who specialise in eating as much
as they can in the shortest time as possible. A lot of
them are stick thin. I don't know where they
fit it. Well, Joey Chestnut's 40 years old
and yeah,
he just doesn't look like a competitive eater.
Do they train?
You'd have to burn it off, right?
He, Joey...
No, but I mean train to eat that much food, not
train to burn it off. You lift some weights afterwards. They might be doing No, but I mean trained to eat that much food, not like trained to burn it off.
Oh, I was like, yeah, you lift some weights afterwards.
Yeah, they might be doing that, what's it called?
Fasting.
No, but your stomach shrinks.
The only thing they eat all day is this insane stuff.
No, yeah, no, they're definitely trying to stretch their stomachs,
but they'd have to do physical exercise.
The calorie intake's insane.
He has...
The reason he's number one is he has
so many records for eating.
Okay.
I'm gonna go over a few of them now.
Okay.
He ate 141 hard-boiled eggs
in eight minutes.
Jeez,
that's a lot of protein.
He ate 45 pulled pork sandwiches
in 10 minutes.
Oh my God,
45 sandwiches.
Yum, pulled pork.
He ate 53 soft beef tacos
for the Taco Bell ones, in 10 minutes.
He is the world record holder in the men's division of 76 Nathan's Famous hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes.
That's the famous hot dog eating.
Right.
He ate 103 Crystal Burgers, which are hamburgers from Crystals, in 8 minutes.
8 minutes.
He ate 182 chicken wings.
Oh, shoot.
In 30 minutes.
And you know American chicken wings are like huge.
Big inflated, pumped up chickens.
Yeah.
He ate 13.7 pounds of pork rib meat in 12 minutes.
Yum.
It was phenomenal now.
Ribs.
Do you think he had the little dipping bowl?
Oh, to wash his fingers.
I don't think he cared about his sticky fingers.
I reckon he just wiped his face at the end.
Yeah.
In 10 minutes,
he ate 23 meat pies.
Oh my God.
How?
Simply how?
Someone check this guy's
cholesterol levels?
It must be through the roof.
It's nerve wracking.
Fish tacos.
Yum!
He ate 30 fish tacos
in five minutes.
What?
He ate 118 jalapeno poppers
in 10 minutes.
Jalapenos, you're saying that wrong.
You're saying that wrong.
Jalapenos.
Jalapenos.
Pupers.
Jalapenos.
I bet he pooped a jalapeno or two after that.
Good God.
He had 121 Twinkies.
You know Twinkies?
Yeah, I know them.
They're like those.
Like soft.
Yeah.
Skinny, fit, pretty, usually under 30.
No, you'll think of something else
They're like these cream filled
Ultra processed
Spongelogs
They are disgusting
He had 121 of those in 6 minutes
Like a lot of dairies have them
They're just imported from America
He ate
18 and a half
Canteen sandwiches In 10 minutes He ate 18 and a half canteen sandwiches
In 10 minutes
Or like just normal
It's a place that sells these
He ate 47 grilled cheese sandwiches
In 10 minutes
That's too many sandwiches
He ate 28 pounds
28 pounds
Can we all please just get on a universal
America's literally the only country
That's so bad
It's still doing miles and pounds.
No, we still do babies in pounds, which is so weird.
12.7 kilograms of poutine in 10 minutes.
Yum.
I haven't had poutine in so long.
It's so good.
He ate whole turkeys.
How is he still alive, this man?
It's no good, eh?
It's not good. It's not good. He ate? It's no good, eh? It's not good.
No.
It's not good.
He ate, if we're talking, oh, that's not right.
He ate 4.2 kilograms of turkey.
So he just got stuck into a turkey, basically.
Yeah.
And he ate 4.2 kilograms of it in 10 minutes.
Okay.
Okay, yeah.
I've lost a bit of respect.
I'm hungry, but also disgusted
I'm so hungry for protein
Yeah
Yeah, I don't know
I just want one more
Because it's apple pie
So it's a sweet one
These apple pies weighed 1.3 kilograms
Jeez
And he ate four and a half of them
Oh my god
Cool hobby man
The dude
He ate 10 cups of ramen noodles
In one minute 50.
One minute 50.
That's insane.
That's next level.
Yeah.
That's insanity.
That's crazy.
So today's fact of the day, to finish off competitive eating week.
This man nearly dead.
This man, age of 40, we don't know how long he's going to be with us.
Eating like that might not be long at all.
The world's greatest eater is Joey Chestnut.
Fact of the day, day,
day, day, day. There is a woman who started to use bee stings as a form of pain relief.
Now, this is not like a new idea.
You know, it's a bit of an alternative therapy, I guess. For what? For like headaches or something?
Just for pain.
She had arthritis and
went on this sort of thing
of getting bees to sting her and the venom
is supposed to help with pain
and improve her mood,
make her feel happy and boost
her sex life.
How do you get the bees to sting you?
You can get them. You can
find them from a practitioner and put your hand in a jar.
I've had the odd bee sting.
I remember one flew through my bike helmet and stung my head.
And that was throbbing.
Because your head is just bone and skin.
I've had bottom of the foot.
That sucked.
And leg.
You were saying she's become addicted to this.
So then she claims it helped her with her arthritis pain,
but then she became so addicted that she was
like getting stung and stung and stung and stung
again and again and again and she was really into it. Now she can't
stop it. She's like I love it. More, more, more.
Now surely you can
like, because you get like allergic reactions
to bee stings. Even if you're not allergic to them.
Some people do. But they react.
So the more you have, surely you're just getting
it can't be good. Do you think your body builds
up a tolerance? I reckon it would. With that, so the more you have, surely you're just getting, it can't be good. Do you think your body builds up a tolerance?
I reckon it would.
With absolutely no scientific research or background, I'm just going to assume yes.
You just go out on a limb. That's how we do things now.
Yeah.
Do you know Gwyneth Paltrow tried this therapy?
She said it's thousands of years old, this, called apotherapy.
Helps with inflammation and scarring and whatnot.
So does bio-oil.
But she will, what, do you get little tweezers
and like she apparently holds them with tweezers
and wherever she wants to be stung just puts them on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But then bees die when they sting, eh?
Because it rips out their bit.
The barb's gone and they die.
Yeah.
So she's a murderer.
A wasp can sting as many times as it likes.
Yeah.
Maybe she needs to move on to wasps.
Is that a gateway flying insect?
It's a gateway.
The wasp eye is like Much different to the bee one
You want to move your way up to a hornet
Yeah
But it's a weird addiction
Very weird addiction
I don't think I'm addicted to anything
I'm totally addicted to bass
Yeah
You're addicted to bass
You're addicted to Prosecco
Ash
I'm addicted to Prosecco
I'm also addicted to Prosecco. Ash. I'm addicted to Prosecco. I'm also addicted to attention.
Yes.
Yeah.
But no, I don't have any like odd addiction.
But this is what I want to know.
If any of our listeners do have a strange addiction like this.
Now, you know, we understand addiction is a complex disease.
It is.
You know?
It is recognized as such.
So perhaps that's not the topic of conversation.
But, you know, if you've got an odd addiction like those people that eat
toilet paper.
Eat like
handfuls and handfuls of mints. You know there's
always somebody in a group with mints. Like raw mints.
Nah, mint-is.
Oh, okay. Pepper mint-is. Do we need to bring back our segment
mints or mints? Mints or mints.
We may need to.
We may need to. We may need to. We may need to.
Which, which is which?
But people do get like hooked on eating like a certain thing.
Or like they have like temporary addictions.
Like people who are pregnant and they're just like, I cannot stop.
Oh, yeah.
I think that was what started that woman, the famous one who eats toilet paper.
Well, she was pregnant and she had a craving.
What about?
Well, just try it.
Would it be an addiction of those people that ate onions like apples?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And you're like, I can't stop.
That's an addiction.
That's because that's.
Someone said I'm totally addicted to vapes.
Yes.
That's funny.
That's actually a pretty big problem.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Like, having just come back from overseas, seeing how much.
Knock it down.
How much we vape in New Zealand is insane.
We're going to pick up a diary.
We're going to be expert on the line. Do we?
He wants to talk to us about bees. A bee
expert. Hello, Jeremy,
bee expert, come in.
I just wanted to give
some context for you guys.
We don't do context.
We don't do context on a Friday.
I'll do context on a Friday. Jeremy,
Jeremy, it muddies the water.
I usually wait till I have a long for a context, but on Friday
I like to start my context quite early.
I just want to say what I want to say with no context.
Yeah, we just live in a world with no context, Jeremy.
You've gone to all this effort, Jeremy.
It's hard to fit context into a TikTok, isn't it, Jeremy?
But we'll hear it. What's your context?
Just to recap,
you guys were talking about building up a tolerance
to beat things and things like that.
We said that really, really with absolutely no knowledge, by the way.
We just said it.
We just said it.
Well, it's actually, it's not correct.
So a lot of beekeepers, it's not all of them,
but there's a high percentage of beekeepers end up actually getting an allergic reaction
after they've been stunned so many times.
So it's a tolerance.
I thought when Hayley said that, Jeremy, I thought
you shouldn't be saying that without context.
Hang on, Jeremy, pausing. I didn't say that.
So you're more likely to
with nothing but a radio degree
behind him.
Wow.
You learn something new every day.
I thought I could.
So this
woman there. Quiet season for Jeremy
At the moment
Isn't it Jeremy
Because winter
Bees sleep in winter
Don't they
No they don't
They don't really sleep
They don't
We're just saying
Whatever we want
We're just saying
Nothing
No scientific
Man is guys
They are sleeping
What a jerk eh Jeremy
Is it true that bees
Have a life cycle
Of 50 to 60 years
Each
No
I can say Whatever I want Jeremy It's my radio station Is it true that bees have a life cycle of 50 to 60 years each? No, no, no.
I can say whatever I want, Jeremy.
It's my radio station.
Jeremy, what you got you is COVID a myth?
It's definitely the Illuminati that have...
Thank you.
There we go.
We've gone out of breath.
So getting back to this woman that's addicted to bee stings,
she's just going to end up, highly likely,
end up being allergic to bees.
Correct.
So one day...
It's something that happens slowly over time,
so she'll find that the reactions get a little bit worse,
and then one day she'll go anaphylactic,
and that will kill her.
Wow.
So have you had enough stings to warrant an EpiPen, Jeremy?
Where are you at on the sting scale?
I'd probably only be sitting at about 80 to 100.
I think it's time to buy an EpiPen.
I reckon it's time to have that EpiPen.
Realistically, everyone should carry an EpiPen in their first aid kit.
You mean every beekeeper or every radio announcer,
every office worker?
Every Tom, Dick and Harry.
Every first aid kit should carry an EpiPen.
I mean, it's recommended.
The reason you don't is because they're so expensive.
But then, Jeremy, I feel like it would be Friday.
It's five to six.
I'm out of energy.
I'd be like, guys, where's the EpiPen?
Shaboom, baby!
It's showtime!
There have been some Monday mornings I've wished the EpiPen? Shaboom! Maybe it's showtime. There have been some Monday mornings I've wished to EpiPen
born awake into the world.
Oof, in the thigh.
Everything in moderation.
So, you know, as long as you're not doing it every Monday,
then you'll be sweet.
Or half an EpiPen.
Can you do half an EpiPen?
No, I reckon once it's in, it's in.
Could you share an EpiPen?
We'll do a half each.
Jeremy, thank you.
Thank you, Jeremy.
Thank you for some much-needed context this morning.
Very interesting.
Can I ask one?
Is it true?
No, I was going to say something so stupid.
Don't worry, Jeremy.
I respect you and I thank you for the context.
Thank you, context, Jeremy.
We want to take some calls now about the weird addictions you may have.
Your strange addictions.
Like this woman that is addicted to bee stings.
Is there something that you're unusually addicted to?
We don't want to hear about,
not the serious stuff like booze and drugs and stuff.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm reading some of these now.
Give us one to EG.
Addicted to picking my face.
Oh.
What part of your face?
I get that.
You know, just like picking a little bit.
Picking at the skin a little bit.
I get that. I get that, man.
I get that with my fingernails.
The whole thing's going to come off.
My fingernails start picking at that.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Off I go, off I go.
I'm constantly running one fingernail around the other fingernails.
Okay, 0800DARLS.AM, give us a call now.
Our text through, 9696.
What's your strange addiction?
That top text, I get it, man.
Leanne, good morning.
Hi. Now, what are you weirdly addicted to?
Oh, I don't know
if I'm really, like, addicted to it, but
I just, I really like smelling my cat's
breath. Hey, Leanne.
Anytime, Rolly, what are you feeding that cat?
I could get, like,
the smell of your cat. I love the smell of my cat.
The smell of, like, a real fluffy cat.
But not the breath. Oh, yeah, the smell as well. Like, sometimes I'll sniff between your toes. I love the smell of my cat. The smell of like a real fluffy cat. But not the breath. Oh yeah, the smell as well.
Like sometimes I'll sniff
between your toes.
Yeah, that sounds like
corn chips most of the time,
doesn't it?
No, I smell Rolly's like
neck and back and tummy,
but not the toes and the breath.
Oh no, it's pretty good.
What does the breath smell like?
Like jelly, mate?
Oh no, she only eats biscuits.
Yeah, me too.
That's why.
You're all running dry households.
Your poor cats. Your poor cats are like.
Choking on dry biscuits.
Give us some reason.
She's the guy whose cat died.
Yeah.
Oh, she eats a lot of water.
Vaughan's going through like.
She eats a lot of water fountain.
Vaughan's going through five cats a year and he's like, ooh, still feeding them biscuits.
Yeah, well.
Five cats a year.
Wow, cats are still living. Still going.
Leanne, thank you for sharing that. Yeah,
how odd. Maybe I'll give Riley a new sniff.
Yeah, yeah, give her
a sniff when you get home.
I hope all your cats die. What did you just
say? Porns! Porns!
How dare you say that to us? There's nothing
wrong with the biscuits. Keep a text coming in
9696. I want you to...
Dry house.
We want to know your odd addiction.
Apparently wanting to know your
strange addictions. The things that you're just like,
can't get enough of that.
Splitting my split ends in my hair was the one that made
me go, yes. When you get a split
end in the end... Sorry.
Wow. Guys, sorry.
Wow. Oh, you just relate to the
two bald guys. Yeah, sorry. I didn't mean to bring that up. Georgia, you just relate to the two bald guys. Yeah, sorry.
Yeah.
Oh, I didn't mean to bring that up.
Georgia, you'll know.
Georgia's in studio.
When you get the end of your hair and it's got a little Y split and you go.
That's not good.
And you pull it apart and it's so nice.
Two hairs for the price of one.
Two thin hairs for the price of one thick.
Oh, it's so good.
That's weird.
That's not good for the hair though, is it?
I don't know. Don't you always like split ends cut off? Yeah, but splitting them is really good. That's weird. That's not good for the hair though, is it? I don't know.
Don't you always like split ends cut off?
Well, you're supposed to cut the split ends off, yeah,
but splitting them is really good.
I like it.
I like putting sanitizer in the cuts on my hands.
Oh, yes.
What?
The sting.
I used to do that with eczema
and I would put like salt and lemon juice on it
and be like.
Okay, well, I'm just revealing a bit too much
about myself in this here and now.
Someone messaged in that they used to purchase a bee venom face cream.
Yeah, you can.
Kind of like this lady that got us onto this.
She stings herself with bees because she likes it.
This person used to buy the bee venom face cream,
but did get a little bit addicted to it because the sting is a really nice sting.
Like a tingle.
Yeah, right, like a tingle.
So they had to stop that.
Stop that right now.
I'm addicted to the subreddit Am I the Arsehole?
Yes, good.
It's just free judgment, basically.
That's good.
One night I ate an entire bag of pineapple lumps and baby pickles.
Not together, but like one for one.
One pineapple lump, one baby pickle.
One pineapple lump, a baby pickle.
Yum.
I'm actually into this.
A bit of sweet and sour.
Yeah.
And they said now it's a problem.
I just can't have them both in the house or I polish off both bags.
Maybe you could go for actual pineapple squares, not pineapple lumps.
And then make it healthy.
Just make it healthy.
This guy.
Get a life.
Actual pineapple.
A dull pineapple.
Yeah.
But with that much.
Maybe you could do this.
Make it healthy.
She's eating pineapple lumps and pickles, man.
I'll do cheese and pickles. Oh's eating pineapple arms and pickles, man. I'll do cheese and pickles.
Yeah, cheese and pickles is normal,
but I can kind of get it like the chocolatey, smoothie,
pineapple-y sweetness and then the acidity of the pickle.
I'm going to do it.
I'm addicted to picking the calluses on my hands,
but I only get them from going to the gym,
so I need a gym three, four days a week to continue the picking.
That's genius.
That's a happy side effect.
Why are you so buff?
I didn't really want this body.
I just love the calluses.
Twirling my hair in one specific spot
whenever I'm watching TV or concentrating at work.
My nan used to do that,
which is when we used to go stay with her as a kid.
And when I had hair, I'd do it too because I copied her.
And then you just end up with this knot
and you're just coming out in here.
Someone messaged saying,
I'm not going to lie,
I'm addicted to you guys ripping on Fletch.
Makes them laugh.
Negging. Yeah. Bar them laugh. Negging?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Baratie.
That's really, that's quite mean.
Now, this top text, Vaughn.
Ever smelt the floss after flossing?
No.
So good, they say.
Yeah.
And that's all the grossest part of your mouth.
That's the yuck bits.
That's why we're flossing.
Oh, and somebody else is smelling the back of earrings.
Oh, no.
Ooh, the back of earrings. Yeah, no. Oh, the back of earrings.
Yeah, yuck.
Everyone who has the ears pierced knows what this smells like.
Okay, you're all manky.
You're all mangers.
We're not judging, but you're a manger.
Mankey mangers.
Mankey mangers.
Have a good weekend.
Is that the podcast done?
Because I'm blasting for a poos.
Blasting for a poos.
Jesus.
Give us a review.
