From the ZM Podcast Network.
This is Fleshwood and Haley's Big Pod.
Brought to you by Chemist Warehouse.
The biggest brands of the lowest prices.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show, Fletch Fawn and Haley.
Happy April 1st.
Pranked you.
Look under your seats.
What's under there?
Nothing chewing gum or something.
Pranked.
I see anything.
No, no pranks.
Okay.
No pranks.
That's what you think.
You've got to pick up.
up the hot cross buns today. I'm writing that on my little
to-do list. Oh, okay, yep, that's all right. I can do that.
Yeah, short week. Daylight savings this weekend?
Yeah, I'm pretty jazzed on the short week.
Well, it's a day... It's just tomorrow and then that's that.
It'll be Friday and Monday for a lot of people that don't have to drive their car.
Yeah.
So that'll be a saving at least.
Just couch rot, I reckon. Yeah.
That'll save you 50, 50 buck.
Apparently, yeah, they reckon that like people going away for Easter weekend's going to be like
less as well. Oh my God, yeah, didn't even think
driving down to wherever you want to go.
I know, so people are just... Up there and down there.
Going to stay home. $10 suburb,
$1,000 street. Are we just giving it away?
Yeah. Around 7.30
this morning and, but I can guess your pet's name,
thanks to animates, $500
at 10 past 8.
Lots of chances you to win cash
today on the show. The top six born
well, a
chuckingling Chinese meal.
This is Democracy Manifest.
That's the man who touched me of the penis.
I see you know your judo well has been added to the Australian archive.
The audio archives.
Yeah.
The history of Australia.
I love this.
That's so good.
So I was thinking the top six quotes from here in Alti-Ro in New Zealand, we could add to the New Zealand archives.
Because we've got New Zealand archives, but do they add audio?
Surely.
Surely they add like famous internet clips.
Well, there's the sound and something museum down in Wellington, you know, with the film and sound and stuff.
Surely we'll be in there.
That's fantastic.
Well, the top six quotes that should be in there.
Yeah.
Okay.
Next on the show.
Supermarkets are in a real pickle.
They made a bit of a computer era, not in their favour,
and they're trying to remedy it quickly.
The flesh one in Haley, Big Pod.
Now the top six is coming up,
and there's been a lot of debate in the studio
while the songs have been playing
about what audio we should include in the top six.
Because a succulent Chinese meal, the very well-known clip, has been added to the Australian Audio Archive.
He died last year, eh?
Yes.
Yes, he did.
Dude lived into his 80s, though, and he was not afraid of a red wine.
No, I know.
Guy Williams interviewed him, for Enzid today.
Cigarette and a red wine and he lived into his 80s.
Man.
Because he was a Kiwi bit in Aussie?
No, I think it was...
No, I think it was just Australian.
Just Aussie, okay.
But we just became infatuated with it.
Oh, such a great clip.
So, we're talking about why the top six...
New Zealand quotes would be added to the audio archive.
Like blow on the pie, neck minute.
Yeah.
You don't go through them all now.
Well, we've got to go on the load.
Yeah.
Well, if you've got one that you think we should add to the list.
Because one we'd completely miss just was we didn't even ask for them on the text machine.
And 256, absolutely knocked it out of the park.
So is that going to be included, do you think?
Yeah, it is.
It is.
Well, if you've got one, like a piece of audio, a quote that should be in the top six,
966, because we want to make sure we've got the very.
very best Thompson.
Iconic Kiwi audios.
And we want to be able to load the quotes in.
Yeah, we love that.
Okay, so let's text in 96696.
We'll get on to that.
Yeah.
So, do you know, there is a,
guy, I love a Tesco when you're in the UK.
Tesco.
I just love it going into any supermarket overseas.
I just love it so much.
It's fascinating, eh?
I just love it.
It's always an interesting look around.
Do you know where I'm going to go tomorrow?
Where?
The Bintang supermarket.
Yes.
Tomorrow?
Yeah.
I'm in Bali tomorrow.
I hate to break it to you.
What time are you leaving to get there tomorrow?
I land at 5pm in Bali time.
Wow.
So you'll leave it midday tomorrow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Straight to the Bintang supermarket.
If you guys want any cheap Bintang undies or singlets you,
bloody let me know, boys.
What is that?
A bloody beer of Bindang undies.
Oh, yeah, I've bought that Bintang G string we bought zero times.
Yeah, no.
It's too close to be next to skin.
Yeah, it's thrush manifest.
It's a bit, yeah.
So, anyway, Tesco, this is a Tesco,
This is a Tesco in Kirkwall Orkney, which is in Scotland.
And they've got an issue on their hands, and they're trying to remedy it quite quickly,
after they accidentally screwed up an order.
Okay.
A stocking order for bananas.
They accidentally ordered 380 wholesale boxes of bananas instead of 380KGs of bananas,
which resulted in,
an estimated 38,000 bananas,
which is double the entire population of the islands,
where this test goes is,
and the Orkney Islands.
Yeah.
They will never sell these bananas before they go all manky,
like the ones that Vaughn puts in his porridge in the morning.
You should see what I got today.
Show me.
And also they're the...
We'll just smell it from here.
Orkney Isles, like you've got to,
I'm assuming, get them by boat.
Yeah, it's by boat.
So then what are they going to have to boat some back to the mainland?
And I...
The banana was so soft, I had to hide it.
the container with the oaks.
It was so disgusting.
That is almost too ripe for cake.
Like, how long do you leave them at home before you bring them to work?
Buy less bananas, dude.
No, I just buy them and then...
You go to the supermarket a few times a week.
Like, just buy them when you go.
You live there so many fruit suppliers.
I need to pop in today, actually.
So what are they going to do?
They're giving them away.
Because I've got here, the Orkney's population in early 2025
is approximately 22 to 22 and a half thousand people.
Yeah, so they've got 38,000 bananas.
This one Tesco, it's not the only bloody supermarket either.
Yeah.
So there's too many bananas.
That's at least like three bananas each.
Yeah, I was going to say per person.
Kind of, yeah, yeah.
Or like two bananas, right?
And then you've got some people that won't eat any bananas.
Like, I'm not a huge banana eater.
I'll have a banana a day, easy.
I love a banana, but I don't buy them.
When you were a kid, how many bananas a day were you allowed?
Probably like two.
Really?
We were only at one because we were told we'll get potassium poisoning,
but looking back on it, Mom just didn't want to have to spend too much money on bananas.
I've been thinking about this recently
the bullshit we were fed when we were kids
You're going to drown, your eyes are going to go square
Your face is going to stay like that if the wind changes
Are you talking about like going swimming too quickly after lunch?
Yeah, that's bullshit hey
It's rubbish, yeah
Like using your phone on the forecourt of the petrol station
Like it's going to blow up
Yeah
It's so weird these lies, we just live in lies
38,000 bananas, they're giving them away
They could not...
Oh really?
And because they've had high winds
So they couldn't be returned via theory
So they're just here
And they're like, we're going to return the order in their lap
Sorry, ferries closed.
Yeah.
High wins.
Oh no.
So they are just giving them away.
They're giving them away to community.
This is awesome.
They're giving away to community groups.
Yep.
Schools, toddler groups and football clubs.
Like a banana.
They're a banana.
I guess you can do that thing.
You're like, well, I guess I just put these in the freezer
and put them in a smoothie.
And you never do and end up throwing them away in like six months.
But I reckon someone needs to get fired because here's the twist.
So they're giving them away, which is great, right?
They've lost them.
money, give them away to all these community groups.
Here's a twist. This is not the first time that this
particular Tesco in Orkney,
Scotland, have over-ordered.
Two years ago, one
of the shops accidentally ordered 720
Easter eggs instead of 80
and they
couldn't sell them so they had to do a charity fundraiser.
So they've got a good attitude behind them.
Yeah, right. But the bananas
are shorter shelf-life. But that's not...
720 Easter eggs when they meant to order 80.
That's not even like an adding a z-
or something before 80 or after 80.
Someone's on the per se.
Someone's had a few too many bloody whiskeys before work.
The Fletchborn and Haley, big pod.
Oh God.
Why women are so exhausted, not just from being bosses and the superior agenda.
Sorry?
What?
Sorry, what the superior agenda?
So I wasn't sure when the mics were up.
No, not the only reason they're exhausted.
They are exhausted.
We've talked about this a little bit in the past
about the emotional labour
that a lot of women carry.
But there are sort of nine quiet forms of exhaustion
that they suffer from,
holding everyone else's stories,
feeling responsible for moods that aren't theirs,
absorbing conflict before anyone else feels it,
editing themselves to protect others,
struggling to receive care, loneliness,
no one can see,
unable to rest without guilt.
The list goes on.
And it's Vaughn's fault.
It is actually Vaughn's fault.
Why is it my fault?
You literally just walked in about a minute into the spring.
Yeah.
Because you were just having a little quiet time on your mind.
Women are exhausted, Vaughan, and you're making Haley even more exhausted.
Hold anyone else's story.
Feeling responsible.
Absorbing conflict.
Well, just don't do it then.
That's actually a really good point.
That's really profound from you, Vaughn.
But one of the things...
It bothers you and you don't want to do it and it exhausts you doing it.
Just don't do it.
Do you want to lose all of our female listeners in the space of five minutes?
Well, no, I'm helping them.
I'm trying to help them out.
Just do it.
No, then no, no, do it.
Then it doesn't get done.
96, 96, if you want Vaughn to tell you to just smile.
I'm not telling you to just smile.
Just have a little smile.
One of the things that they are most exhausted for is asking for basic emotional needs,
such as listening and basic empathy in their relationships.
Men, though.
Am I right?
Yes.
Yes.
I know, sister.
You are right.
Do you know?
I know, I know, sister.
utterly hated that
utterly
I know
we can't listen to it all
girl I know
I don't think I'm the best example
of a woman to listen to
because I demand to be listened to
and I talk a lot
Right okay
I will say having been out in the wild
For a year now
Single
Yeah that's what I mean
Out in the wild
Just like getting it all
Single quotes
Who you're going to
Barley with? Single.
Barely know the guy.
Okay.
Really?
Jokes, six months tomorrow.
Ooh.
And, um, ooh, yeah.
And have you seen Hallie's
screensaver?
Ew, yuck. This is disgusting.
Oh yeah, that's yuck. That's yuck.
That's yuck. That's yuck.
Anyway, having been out in the wild for
some time,
yeah.
I would say, my experience with gentlemen
in the last wee while is that there's a big growth
in emotional maturity.
That would be my on the floor experience
I did my own study
That's all I was doing over the last 12 months
So there's some science research for the show
Science and research
Just being like just go I've got to go out
Get going out and collecting my research
Compared to what when you were single previously
100% which to be fair was like years ago
And you were a lot younger too
A lot younger too and with younger people
Yeah
But I don't know I think there is
Not that the study is wrong
But I would say I think there is a lot of emotional development
I'd say most of the men in my life
of quite emotionally mature, yourselves included.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, thank you.
Express yourselves quite well and listen and there's empathy.
Tell me.
What did she say?
Tell me you love me.
Something about empathy.
Are you listening?
Pardon me?
No.
We've just sort of done three studies.
We did their study, my study,
and our study just now proving this very correct.
The ZDM Podcast Network.
Chemist Warehouse, who by the way are working on a great charity
with our in-studio guest Nicole Baroque
all the way from Australia, I believe.
Did they let you in okay?
Yeah, all good yesterday.
Thankfully, our flight wasn't cancelled.
Because, you know, Vaughan, when he goes to Australia,
he has to go to the special booth.
Every time.
On arrival and departure.
Oh, wow, you've been flagged.
I don't know what I ever did.
He has the same name as someone that knows Julian Assange.
That's what it was.
Oh, okay, right.
We do agree.
Now, let me tell you a bit about Nicole.
She's the founder of Bambi Minico,
which is the cutest little name.
But you, Vaughan, you know this company because you actually purchased.
You may notice, I sound a little under the weather.
Yesterday, I went to, you can see here, my Chemist Warehouse side pouch.
Yep.
That's in your backpack.
With all the goodies.
With all your lozenges and sprays and stuff.
You acquired some Bambi Minico socks.
Yes.
Oh, you bought them.
Yay.
Oh, thank you.
It's fantastic.
This is what this is all about.
You're co-labbing with Chemist Warehouse.
Correct.
Yes.
And selling the most gorgeous mini socks.
Thank you.
They don't fit born's feet.
Big hooves.
We do have some here for you though.
We do have some special adult socks.
And some for the girls too.
And this is all raising money for the Starship Foundation,
which of course is such an amazing foundation.
They do amazing work.
So why socks?
I guess it was like we started off as a babyware brand predominantly.
And then we were personally fundraising for the girls.
Good Friday appeal.
That's sort of how it all started back in 2021.
And yeah, I guess we decided we wanted to give back a little bit more and we were wondering
how we do that and we figured that we could potentially do that through our socks.
And yeah, we extended the range to include it for older kids.
So, yeah, I guess it's how it started.
Do you feel, I feel, we're in an era of funky sock.
Yeah, we are.
People do express themselves.
We said yesterday because we've never had to wear like, ironically wearing a shirt today,
but we've never had to wear like suit and tie and shirts.
But I always see business being like,
really trying to hold on to their personality with a pair of funky socks.
Yes, yeah, they do that.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, we can definitely wear these with your suit and tie and socks.
Can I ask why the Starship Foundation,
as if that's a question that needs to be answered?
Obviously, it's, you know,
but you could choose any charity to work with.
Is the Starship Foundation mean something to you personally?
Well, like, I guess, you know, for us,
the goal is to be able to work with children's charities across the world
and we're able to do so thankfully through our partnership with the chemist warehouse.
And yeah, like we launched Bambi Mini Co here in New Zealand in 2023.
And yeah, we had the mission to see like how far we could take this
and how many kids we could fundraise for and help across the world.
And yeah, that's where Starship came in.
And we're actually going there today, which is super exciting.
So we're going to meet the team, two of the hospitals.
Barra's hospitals go one of the happier ones.
Which is Asha.
Yeah, yeah.
Which is nice because there's kids in there.
The radio station, radio lollipop.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm happy to say I've never had to go.
Yeah, I've taken the girls there a couple of times,
sort of like emergency department and then maybe like overnight.
And it's as, the people, I mean, this is no surprise.
The people that work there are magic.
Angels.
And it is, yeah, such a great spot.
Because you know, some companies that make money,
they can just keep it to themselves.
You don't, this is a choice.
Well, yeah, well, I mean, like 100% of the funds from the socks
and the till donations go directly to the charity.
Because that's the thing, even if you don't want to buy socks,
you can just be at the chemist's warehouse and just donate
while you're paying for your staff and make a donation, just like that.
And what's the aim?
How much, because you did this last year in Australia and raised a bit, didn't you?
We did, yes.
Our aim this year is a million dollars across New Zealand and Australia.
So, yeah, fingers crossed.
We're only a few days in, and New Zealand are actually doing really, really well.
Because we love a funky sock.
Yes, and that's good.
It's amazing.
Can I see?
Can I see these socks?
These are these, because...
Oh, they're a kid.
These are the ones for the kids.
And we love that.
Oh, these are kids socks.
And then also comes in the blue smile.
See, I want the blue ones.
They look real.
They're funky.
There are clown feet though.
Yeah, he's got...
All you and they're full.
They're size 12.
Adult.
Okay, lovely.
No worries.
Because he can't be Chuck Taylor's because it literally looks like he's...
I look like Ron McDonnell.
They do.
They do.
I can't do it.
I mean, we're on radio, but if I may describe,
their happiness in sock form.
Yes, they are.
got these florals with lilac and pink and yellow.
We've got happy faces on the blow.
It's so good.
So any chemist warehouse you can go to buy these.
100% of the proceeds go to Starship Foundation.
Absolutely.
Thanks to you.
Amazing.
Well, thank you so much, Nicole, for coming in, sharing your socks and the great message
and, I mean, donate in general.
But also, pop into chemist warehouse, get yourself a pair of these awesome socks.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Play.
Play Z-N.
Flechhorn and Haley.
Little Pole, silly little
It's so silly, silly, silly that
silly little poll, if public transport was free,
would you use it more often?
I've decided if I could get public transport
from my place to work at 4 o'clock of the morning,
I'd 100% be taking this day now.
I mean, there's a lot of people listening now that,
you know, already probably at work
or have been up for a while, it's just not possible.
And it doesn't reach everywhere.
Yeah. Well, yesterday, for Melbourneians,
for Victoria.
Melbourneites.
public transport
Melbians
Melbians
Public transport free
until for a month
end of April
April 30
Well that's great
We're gonna be there
For a good couple of weeks
Yeah well the trains
The trains to trans
Imagine if this was the state of Victoria's
Public
April Fool's joking
Well no because it started
No it started yesterday
Right
So it's not like hasn't been announced
Today and also
Tasmania have made it free as well
Public Transport
And there have been calls here as well
Like people's saying, instead of giving like a few people $50,
why don't you just make like all the public transport free and pay for that?
Yeah.
You often say, I mean, like peak hours you'll see a crammed bus.
She's harmon.
But you'll often see empty buses going around.
But I definitely have friends that have like changed their habits.
Yeah.
And they work in 9 to 5 and it's easy for them to take the train or the bus.
Or a day at home or carpooling.
Totally.
Well, this is today's question for silly little poll.
If public transport is free, would you use it more often?
and 62% of people said yes, 38% of people still said no.
It's hard though because I think of where I grew up in New Plymouth,
like the bus routes are like pretty thin.
Yeah.
They're not that popular because it's, you know, it's just easier to drive.
And you factor in more time to like drive to a bus stop and then walk to this thing.
Whereas people are like, I want to drive to a.
Whereas in biggest cities, the routes are everywhere.
You can easily get a bus or a train.
Yeah, Kailra. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, some feedback on this.
Luke said, yeah.
And would also use it if it goes over long.
weekends, but standard trains are not going
over Easter and Anzac weekends.
Yeah, well, they've got to get ready for the city rail loop.
But there will be
replacement buses. Rail buses. Yeah.
Which aren't on the rails, unfortunately.
Yeah, that's misleading, isn't it?
Because you thought they went on the rails.
Melbourne-based listener
here, says Kelsey. Having free
public transport has already changed our plans for
Easter and work travel for the next month. Car stays
in the garage and we only go places that we can get to
on public transport. Better living, everybody.
So is there fuel more expensive than ours?
Or they're just not used to having expensive fuel, right?
Because they're normally way cheaper than us anyway.
Right.
Yeah.
Americans are the ones that aren't used to be paying much for their fuel.
They're having a real tantee.
Pruti says, of course, what M-Earth were out there doesn't want to save money in this time.
And this crunch.
Yeah.
This cosy living cry.
I did see Maddie Maclean taking the train, maybe regretting moving halfway to Hamilton.
Did we say?
We did say, didn't we?
We did say you're living in the middle of nowhere.
We did say that.
Busy social life such as yours working in the city already.
Did we say?
We did say.
Guys, please don't.
Give Maddie too much grief.
He's still rebelling in the fact he didn't feed me enough of this wedding.
You know that was coming.
I was like, says the guy.
I was about to say what?
Okay.
Says McLean's biggest bully, Vaughn Smith.
He likes it, though.
I neg him.
He likes it a bit, eh?
He does love being neg by daddy.
96, 96, did that make you uncomfortable?
Do you want to be nigged by Daddy?
Yeah, no, don't do that again.
No, no.
Gianna says, no, it doesn't feel as safe as a woman walking to and from the bus.
It doesn't feel safe as a woman to walk to and from the bus stop in the dark.
Yeah, fair to all get it.
You're a get up earlier.
Renee said my car takes 98 and I'm overfilling it.
I'm overfilling it up each week.
I drove past a 98 service station on the way to work this morning, and it was.
Is 98 more expensive than 95?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's another 10 cents.
Can you just put 90-wise?
Can you put 91 in and just, who cares?
I want to know what kind of car Renee's drive it.
High-performance vehicle.
Sounds European.
I was going to say.
Who sounds European?
Well, like high-performance Japanese.
Yes, maybe an Aldi.
Could be an L-D.
Emma said no, but only because I have a one-year-old who would definitely not sit still on the bus and look windows.
Yeah, but that makes you tough.
I looked plenty of windows in bus seats.
All those windows are looking, lucky, lucky, lucky.
Yeah.
Kids love public transport.
I used to take my kids on
Public Transport as like
rewards for like potty training and stuff
Yeah, it's good stuff
Love it! Love a bus, because you know what's on the bus?
Boys!
No, Haley.
Wheels!
Wheels on the bus.
Sorry.
They're round and round.
There are boys on the bus.
They jump up and down.
And you get real excited as a kid to as you could press
the bus stop button.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, mine was a string.
Oh, remember the strings he used to pull down?
Yep.
Ding ding ding ding.
I, they said, love public transport,
we'll use that or cycle every single day.
No way am I sitting in a car,
burning money and polluting when I could be exercising
and getting to work at the same time.
Yeah, Kiora, that's great.
Kura.
Kira.
Big Kiora.
Katie said, I live in Melbourne where they've made public transport
free for a month, and as great as it is,
I really don't think it will encourage people to use it more
because you're either using it or you're not.
I need to drive to work because I also need to drive to our clients.
Right, yeah, yeah.
Fair cool, but hopefully if you're driving a client's,
works paying for gas.
Yeah, and then I guess less people on the road, so you'll use less fuel maybe.
So it all kind of works out, doesn't it?
True dat.
Maybe, says Gabby, I usually have 100 things to take with me and have to be in too many places at specific times.
I'm not actually sure public transport would work for me.
Until I'm retired, of course, and have all the time in the world.
Also, I live in Tohonga and yeah.
Yeah.
It's hard in some cities.
It is not built for public transport.
Baye Plentygoo is getting a lot better with the public transport.
Because Tauranga's got terrible traffic.
Oh, terrible.
Terrible traffic.
Terrible traffic.
Surely we'll be able to hover car soon.
Hover above everyone else?
Hover, yeah.
Oh, I thought you mean hovercrafts.
Oh, that'd be great too.
Across the harbour there, yeah, that'd be nice.
In Tohunga.
It would take two buses in over 40 minutes for me to travel less than 15 kilometres,
so surely empty buses are better for the environment, right?
Mm.
Mm.
Hmm.
Mm.
We don't know.
Lachlan, I have a work car.
Okay, Lachlan.
Okay, Lachlan.
Let's rub it in.
What four radio presenters?
Used to happen.
Really?
Well, I know a few back of the day.
Oh, crazy.
One of the ZDem Thunders, people keep opening my boot
and looking for a bloody protein bar or something.
Oh, you wouldn't want to be driving one.
I don't have any energy drinks.
For any freebies?
No, you wouldn't want to be driving a station car
the way you drive with your horn use and your fingers.
Yeah, I'm aggressive.
Yeah.
I'm aggressive.
And I'm messy.
Marie said, I live rural.
It wouldn't help because I'd still need to drive.
to the bus stop and once I've driven
I might as well I'll just keep driving to where I want to go
right. Yeah, exactly. It doesn't work.
If you live rural, get on the horse.
Got it. Tied up for the whole day at the trade station.
Yeah, the horse is just like, I'm so bored.
I'm giving some oats. It'll be alright.
If public transport was free, would you use it
more often as today's silly little poll and
62% of you would?
The Z&P Podcast Network.
Is this a show real? Play ZDN's,
Flash, Foran and Haley. Do you know what I've got?
I've got a little treat for at Carwin-Reeds,
And I'll tell you what probably in time at Fletch listens.
Oh, okay.
If you don't know, Carwin, Produce Carwin has a book talk, bookgram.
Mm-hmm.
Bookstagram.
Bookstagram.
And Fletch and Retaliation, I'll say, has a audio bookstagram.
Sorry, let me just cross to my social media manager.
How is my Instagram going?
Let me just check on that.
Get some stats on that.
Am I, have I called up to Carwin reads?
No, no, no.
But you're in your infancy.
And we're doing a natural build.
But Carwin bought her followers.
No, I didn't.
From Russia.
Shots fired.
759 followers as of right now.
Okay, well, Fletch listens on Instagram if you want some recommendations of great audio books.
Probably time for another post.
Yeah, I was going to say, can I just give some feedback as a follower of both pages?
Yeah.
When I go to At Carwin reads, it's so varied.
She's got interviews.
She's got book recommendations.
She does lists.
She does reviews on yours, which I think Vaughan's going to.
to do another one.
It's just the same photo.
A little bit like you're listening.
Just the same photo of you just sort of like listening.
Oh look, he's like, I'm laughing.
I'm laughing.
Okay.
It's just the same photo every time.
Perfect.
And you never say what you're listening to.
Yeah, I know, well, listening.
Listen to this.
Listening.
Listening to news.
Listening to Haley on Aheart Radio.
Can still.
No, he only gets to audio books.
Yeah.
It's box.
Listen to news that I can soon
be listening.
Yeah, great.
This is great.
So it's like a semi-soft launch of the book.
To a at Channing...
I'm going to tag at Channing Tatum.
Okay, yeah, love this.
He'll reshare.
He'll reshare.
For sure.
And then I'll beat Carlin reads and followers.
I love that.
So what's he done?
So great.
So what he's done, Channing Tatum
is co-writing
a horny wee novel
with the author of bad
feminist Roxanne Gay.
Okay.
Don't laugh at the way.
Did you hear the GZ
They laughed when we said gay
What are you, millennials in the 90s?
It's just the thought of being this gay
No, with Roxanne
Glu
That's her name
Do you reckon they did that when they called her up for assembly?
They were like, Roxanne
Goo!
So, Channing Tatum
Gay Roxanne.
Yeah, and they're like, oh, we can't say that, miss.
So Channing Tatum's writing
smart basically.
Do we know if he's a good writer?
No, no one cares.
She is. She is. She is. Bad Feminist
is a great book. Yeah. But they've said
that it's going to be about people
that make one of those like, when we turn 40
we should get married, packed. Which is classic.
Which is going to be hot because if
if he said to me when we turn 40
let's get married, I'd be like, I'm just
not going to date anyone till then. I also love
it that it's like, the
plot follows two people who made it.
If we're both single at 40, let's marry each other
packed, they actually go through with them fall in love.
That's the kind of basic premise there.
But I love that the characters are going to be 40
because often you listen to these smart books and it's like,
I left university and I went to it and you're like,
I can't relate to you.
I can't stand anything less than when a book is like two 18-year-olds.
Or they're 23, but they're acting like they're 16.
I want some thin skin on the chest.
You know what I mean?
I'm getting really thin.
I'm getting that crapey sort of inner skin on the upper tip.
You want a bit of sag.
So the co-author Roxanne Goate describes it as a voluntary arranged marriage with lots and lots of sex in a bakery.
In a bakery?
You know, that's a food preparation area.
Sorry, tell the council.
Yeah, that's going to get you a D food rating.
I've actually just investigated.
He's written a children's series, and so he is a number one New York Times best seller.
Plenty of those skills will go into this book.
Yeah, wow.
Okay.
Yeah, so Spark Aller was the children's picture book trilogy.
he released in 2021.
They've been working on this book.
It's been in development since 2017.
So it's out soon.
But they're busy.
No, darling.
Oh, yeah, wait.
It's 2026.
2027.
Okay.
I always get surprised by what year it is too.
Same.
I thought it was 2019.
And the world was about to change,
but I was skinny.
So, yeah, Channing Tatum,
co-writing a book,
and you can await the reviews of that book.
On At Carwin Reads.
Thank you.
If you want a great review
with in-depth sort of understanding of the book.
Break down a really kind of fun, flirty way
with a beautiful backdrop.
It's different all the time, great colours.
Or you can get a review of the audio book
from at Fletch listens,
just the same sort of four photos of him
sort of looking into the same.
Read a hot post there. Read a hot post.
Give him both a follow if you don't already.

We're going to randomly generate a suburb.
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
Now, you're in the suburb.
Yes.
That's 10 bucks.
You just got to prove to us.
There is a predetermined street within that suburb that is in a sealed envelope right now,
not in my hands done.
Henderson in Auckland is today's $10 suburb.
So if you are listening right now within...
Henderson, and this is the suburb as defined
by the New Zealand Post. This is correct.
And it is a monster suburb too.
It's a huge. It's a huge suburb. Initially
developed around the timber mill of
Thomas Henderson. Okay. And was known as
Henderson's mill. Oh, good-day, mate.
An Auckland firm, Henderson
and McFarlane swapped a ship for about
18,000 acres of land in
West Auckland. That doesn't seem fair.
Nope, terrible deal. A ship. And Henderson
proceeded to log coldy timber from the Waitakari
Rangers and Millet on Henderson Creek.
Then a railway station opened. They dropped the
there's Henderson.
Well, Shea, good morning.
Good morning.
You managed to call through first.
Now, you are claiming to be in the suburb of Henderson.
I believe so.
You believe so.
Whereabouts are you in this supposed Henderson?
I'm about to pump fuel at Pack and Safe Lincoln Road.
Okay.
All right.
How much is 91 there?
I'm going to go to this is a way she can prove it.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to go to gasby.
Gas buy.
Gas spying.
Gas spying.
Gas buying on gas.
And we're going to go Henderson.
And I'm going to find pack and save.
Okay.
Okay.
How much is fuel at pack and save Henderson?
91.
How much?
It is 335 without the 10 cent discount voucher.
Is she right?
She's correct.
Oh, man.
So wait, she is.
335, what's the last?
You know how there's always a little number?
It's annoying thing.
Yep, bingo.
She's there.
She's there.
I guess all it's going to take.
Well, Shay, congratulations.
We've confirmed you are in the suburb of Henderson in Auckland.
I think so.
You are literally in the heart of it.
You are.
You're right in that smack bang in the middle.
So you've won $10 that Vaughn will personally transfer to your bank account.
From his private bank account.
Now, what street did you say we were on?
Because this envelope has been sealed.
I've just been handed the envelope.
Would you like to open it today, Haley?
Would you like to open it?
Yeah.
I'll open it.
Okay.
A bit of variety
Now Shay, you're currently in Henderson
We've confirmed that what street again?
Lincoln Road
So it's a road, Lincoln Road
Haley is going to open up
Wait, it does say $1,000 street
Should we have said $1,000 roads?
Get a gross
Should we go street slash road slash
It's too wordy
Grove?
We'd take a grove
It's randomly generaish
Laneway
Okay
The $1,000
Street
The $1,000 street today is
It's Lincoln Road
$10,000, $1,010.
Ira can fill the car up.
I reckon fill in that, Shay.
I will instantly transfer you $10 now,
which is exciting, but take it as a sort of a foot
in the door that $1,000 is on its way,
thanks to one roof.
That's amazing, thank you so much.
You're so welcome, Shay.
It's nice to hear someone crying on a fork,
tears of happiness.
It's been less of tears of tears.
It's not been happy.
As opposed to, yeah, filling out the car and crying at the sheer shock of the price.
Shay, what are you going to do with that thousand bucks?
I probably pay my son's football fees.
Oh, dude.
Do you reckon he's got a future in football?
He's bloody better.
It sounds like my parents buying me any kind of sports equipment or anything.
You just paid school fees last week.
It's insane, isn't it?
A thousand bucks, no change from a thousand bucks to school.
Well, you've got a thousand and ten, Shea.
Well done.
All thanks to One Roof Property Search.
Just got easier with the new One Roof app download now.
And we'll play again tomorrow.
$10 suburb, $1,000 Street.
Well done, Shay. Congratulations.

I definitely will.

A teacher who awarded wrong NCEA grades to students
faces censure.
So apparently, like from the tri-
you know, from the teacher's tribunal.
Booted.
Well, um...
Warned, stood down.
Yeah.
Slapped on the wrist.
So a teacher that wanted to readjust and reset during school holidays
was in desperation on the last day to finish, um, the school term.
Awarded grades to students that they had not earned.
Far out.
They, apparently this included giving the same achieved grade to 23 students in his year 10
class across three separate modules.
Oh, year 10.
Yeah.
It doesn't matter.
And so just was like, yep, and then go home.
End the term.
So achieved as like the basic sort of, is just a pass.
But year 10, you're not, the NCAA results don't actually matter yet.
You're kind of pre-examined, you know.
I'm not condoning it.
It's peak lazy.
Also, we all know what it's like when you need that.
Also, yeah, something I would do at work.
You know what I made?
You know, like, it's a like, I feel like.
Not here, not here at ZM.
This is why I always, I was a bit worried about having a surgery on a Friday, because like, you don't, oh, they're statistically proven as it.
And they get a bit of the accident.
The doctor's like, oh, I've got to get, I've got to get down to the badge, you know, quit, quit.
I mean, they're not like that.
And my surgery was fine.
But, you know, you just, you think about things like this.
Especially like, you're scheduled for 4pm Friday that, no, I'm not.
Yeah, exactly.
4 p.m. on a Friday.
No, I'm not.
But, like, you know, the last day, Fridays, the last day of holidays before you go away.
There's no mahy happening.
It's just the last hour of work.
You're like, eh, eh.
Four to five or standard nine to five, are you?
Just pottering around.
Like this teacher, I wanted if we could ask the question this morning.
What could you just not be bothered with work?
And maybe...
Cut a corner.
You cut a corner.
We're taking some shortcuts.
Yeah.
But that's human nature.
It is.
It's human nature.
You did a bit of a check all.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Reply to all.
Or like, I don't know, you've got many emails.
Just control, alt, delete.
Or you did a copy paste.
Select all.
They'll get back in touch with you if it's urgent.
I always think this sometimes.
I wouldn't get sent a bill.
I throw it out with the first one.
I don't think you should be doing that.
I did that recently and then the bill came back.
Yeah.
It was double.
Well, wait until let's go double.
Oh, no, generally they'll chuck your red stamped one before they are.
Yeah, or maybe I missed the red stamped one.
I reckon you missed a red stampy.
Well, we'd love to take your calls.
0800 dials at em as the number.
You can text through 9-696.
When could you just not be bothered at work?
And you took a shortcut.
He took a little shortcut.
Cut a few corners.
Okay, so we want to know when you've taken a little shortcut at work
because you just couldn't be bothered.
You're over it.
A teacher has just awarded a whole lot of NCEA passes
because it was the end of term and wanted to go on holiday.
But naughty our listeners, and I love that about you.
I love it.
I love it. Claire joins us.
Claire, when could you not be bothered at work?
What did you do?
Kiyoda.
When I would go on leave, I used to put an out-in-office message on saying
that when I get back, I'm not going to read any of my emails
that email me again.
And then when I get back from leave, I just delete all my email.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
I love that a lot, actually.
I love it, yeah.
I shall be deleting them.
It's like when people have a phone, voicemail greeting,
and it's like, don't leave a message.
I'm not going to listen to it.
I'm not checking this.
I'm not checking this.
Text me.
It's 2026.
Thank you, Claire.
Ashley, when could you not be bothered at work?
Well, I really hate talking.
to people in my job, which is kind of weird assuming I'm a travel agent.
I'm talking about.
And you called us.
This involves talking to people, three of us.
Well, yeah.
So what I did was I changed my shift to work 9pm till 7am.
So maybe now I get one call across a whole week and I don't have to deal with it.
How do you even do that as a travel agent?
Do you get paid by the hour?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
So you're just working on other things that don't involve you.
dealing with people.
Yeah, so I just reply to everybody else's emails.
Oh, lovely.
And then everybody asks him, pack it all up during the day.
That is so good.
I love that.
So you stay awake all night or you just kind of do it before you go to bed and then wake up and do some more?
No, I stay awake all night.
Wow.
Okay.
Are you going to go to bed soon?
Yeah, I already am in bed.
Oh, okay.
I'm listening to you guys while my board sleep.
Oh, that's okay.
Turn the music down.
Turn the music down.
Yeah.
Good night.
Sleep tight.
Don't let the bed bucks bite.
It's a little creepy more than that a little bit of white noise.
Yeah, kind of kind of waiting for like the floor guy.
I just like a second.
Ashley, good night.
Thank you.
Good night.
Have a good sleep, Ashley.
Graham, what's the shortcut you take with your job when you can't be bothered?
Oh, good.
Yeah, hi, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sometimes we flicking not in service, you know, doing a metro drive, but yeah, not too
much, yeah.
Although we're just sitting on a layover, you know.
Wait, wait, wait.
Graham, wait.
We missed it.
What do you do for a job?
I drive metro.
Metro.
I'm in Hungary.
The bus.
The bus.
So when you can't be bothered picking up people, you just put the sign on saying not
service.
Not really.
Just not really.
Just where we're sitting at the bus depots on their layovers, you know, instead of just
taking a bit of time out, you know.
Yeah, because otherwise.
I think I like Graham a lot.
Otherwise, the drivers do this in Auckland when they haven't officially started.
They just want a bit of time out.
They'll shut the door and put it.
Yeah.
I get that.
Yeah, I get that.
Yeah, because everyone wants to come over and ask you, which, where's this bus go, blah, blah, blah.
Most time we help the long ago, but every day.
Sorry, Graham needs a job and talk back radio.
You've got a great talk back radio, voice, Graham.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Yeah, no, I just add Zad off now.
So I just thought, well, if you've got to call me up, I'd better pull over.
And, yeah, what is sitting on the bus now?
now looking at me thinking, what the hell is he doing?
Wait a minute, Graham.
Got people on the bus and you've pulled over to take our call?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Whereabouts do you drive buses, Graham?
In Fungeret.
Oh, okay.
Caller of the way, obviously.
Caller of the week.
No, but then Graham's going to have to wait on the phone so that we can...
First time caller too.
First time caller too.
Oh, I'm trying to listen.
I'll do this quickly, Graham, because you've got people on the bus waiting,
but caller of the week, thanks for Kim's Warehouse.
We're going to send you out a...
Chemist Warehouse Price Pack.
Wait, are you, so...
Oh, real, guys.
Well, tell everyone on the bus that we said hello.
Hello, everybody.
I'm just talking to ZM Radio now.
They just done a big shout-out for you, at all.
Okay, fantastic.
Oh, my God, Graeme?
Get back to wearing.
Who else wants to go to Fungarah just to go on the bus?
I want to go on a bus ride with Graham.
I want to go on the bus ride with Grave.
He sounds fun.
Keep your text coming in.
9-6-96.
Oh, 800,000.
He can't believe in a busload of people.
He's like, I've got to make a call.
People loving Graham.
People loving bus driver Graham.
I thought it was an April Fool's prank, but it wasn't.
No, we called him.
We called him and he texts in, we called him back.
We've got his address to send him stuff.
He's a real person.
I'm going to be in Fungare in August 1st doing my show up there.
We should all go up.
Get on the bus.
Oh, we joined my broadcast from Funger.
Hell yeah.
You get him to drive a party bus for us.
Yeah, party bus.
That'd be great.
Hell yeah, that'd be so fun.
Some more messages in when you've taken shortcuts at work
when you can't be bothered.
Just can't be bothered.
With people or whatever.
Oh, there's so many of them.
Someone said, as a teacher,
I just want to say,
as a teacher, we are using AI
to do feedback on essays.
So much more detailed.
And this way, I don't even have to read them.
Yeah.
Amazing.
Which is great.
Sorry, so many people messaging being like,
you've got to go and do a show on Graham's bars.
I am.
People are loving him.
A med student here regarding doctors on Friday.
Apparently they're the happiest on Friday.
and there has been a link in a study between happy doctors equal good doctors.
Yeah, okay.
So maybe it's not, you know, be worried about.
I have noticed Dr. Shawnee will be very happy if we're drinking on a Friday and he's not working.
Yeah, because he's not at work.
Yeah, no, that's different.
That's because he's got the day off and you're having some margaritas.
Also, when he's not working on Thursdays and every other Monday.
He's always happy.
You're upset him.
I'm a teacher aide and the teacher in my class is always taking shortcuts all the time
and I'm left to pick up the slack.
Keep wanting to say no, but actually I care about the kids.
Oh, that's nice.
That's good.
but, you know, teacher aid, you might be, like, relatively new to it.
Give yourself a few years.
Until the sheen wears off.
They'll wear you down.
You know, there's so many remote workers having ordered those Timo mouse movers.
Yeah.
So good.
Came back from parental leave and I was like,
nah, this is way too hard.
Got a mouse mover from Timo and take a nap every now and then.
I'm a diesel mechanic.
A mate took a shortcut one Friday night,
and now he's got one less finger.
He didn't get to.
He wasn't allowed to go to the pub that night.
I like, he's lost his finger.
He's still like, can I please go to the pub though?
Do you know what's going to really help this?
Guinness.
Guinness.
Yeah.
Down pub.
I'm going to go down pub, get some chippies.
Did you read that daycare one?
At daycare, the last hour with the late kids?
Cocoa melon on the iPad for the wind.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I work as a vet.
Sometimes when I don't want to go back to the clinic after a callout, I just drive really slow.
We'll stop.
Yeah, nice.
Take the long way back.
Take the scenic drive.
Someone just message in and I actually, I can hear it now,
thinking that Graham was Josh Thompson doing a bit?
Josh Thompson's not awake at this time of the morning
unless he has to be.
It did sound like some guy doing a bit.
It wasn't.
I didn't see the number that Graham messaged us
and we called him back.
That's not time.
Anonymous teacher, please.
I started a lesson Monday this week
and the kids wouldn't settle or quiet now for the roll,
so I just let them have that.
I got some other work done.
I know, do you remember?
Did your teachers ever do that?
You could see that you'd warn them down
and they'd just given up on you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Guys we've had a text.
We're getting told off.
Why?
HR here, and we know when you're using a mouse mover.
Do they?
How do they know?
How does HR know?
Because no works coming in or keys are being pressed.
I don't know.
How do you know?
Also, HR stop being narcs?
Yeah.
Like, you're the worst.
But also to be it's because they're there to help us.
So mischievous.
That's such naughty rascals.
Noddy rascals.
They are naughty rascals.
the part of it. Well, because they know the rules, don't they? Yeah, yeah. Someone wanted to finish early as a lifeguard, close the pool and said there was a poo in it.
I do...
No, they didn't put a poo in, they just said there's been sightings of a poo. No, they didn't take a physical dump. No, no. I do stock take in Excel and look up formulas to make the counts match our stock, then copy and paste them into our system, so the counts 100% correct. And then I'll just muck around for a couple of days when I'm supposed to make stock.
Muck around. Then change a couple randomly so it doesn't look too good. And my colleagues and managers just think I'm such a
hard worker. They don't know the truth. I've been doing this for years.
Also, like, how do you know that someone's
like shoplifting heaps of stuff and that
it's not accounted for?
If the money's getting done to a
satisfactory degree. Exactly.
Are we mad at it? My job has
recently implemented AI
voicemail feature that creates callback
slash email tickets. The shortcut
I take is if the customer refuses to interact
with the AI agent and provide
any information, I'll mark the ticket
is resolved. They'll call back if they actually
want help.
Okay, that sounds like, is what I do?
That sounds very lazy.
So, resolve.
They'll call back.

What animal it is and what kind of, what breed of that animal?
Okay, it's a chihuahua cross with a papillon.
Brilliant.
Papillon.
So it's an angry, an angry little Mexican.
Oh, I don't know.

Okay, okay.
A little one.
Okay.
A affectionate, intelligent and energetic,
often sporting large ears and a loving personality, Emma.
Yes, correct.
Emma, my first question is going to be,
what is the gender of this animal?
He's male.
Presumed.
He's a, he's male.
He is.
Does that help you with any names?
Chico.
Chico, puppy, Juan, or Fit.

What about buddy?
We might be getting too concentrated on the chihuahua side of things,
and not the Papillon.
What about the buddy?
Buddy.
Buddy.
Because Emma sounds like she's obsessed with this dog.
No offense, Emma.
But you're giving big, like, man.
dog woman.
Yeah, like this is like baby, you know, or sweaty?
He cost me $10,000 so he's at MRI.
Jesus, Emma, do you?
No, he got meningitis and he actually survived it.
What that?
Like our friend James got meningitis.
Jesus.
And he survived.
Yep, he survived.
My gosh.
He was literally paralyzed when I finally got him to the specialist vets and they
turned it around and now he's amazing.
And I bet you you'd spend that 10 grand all over again.

Tiger?
Yeah, I don't know.
Have you ever named an animal for it?
Tiger, does that look like a tiger to you?
Yeah, but it's ironic, isn't it?
Because it's such a small...
Yeah, Pedro and Pablo.
We had Milo yesterday, but nothing...
We could be going back-to-back Milo.

Is your pet named after a human or a human even?
Well, Emma, unfortunately, thanks to Animates you,

Tumble dryer

For 30 minutes and my towel.
Those things cost a fortune

shower and I'm going to come out and put on my warm
knickers and my nice fluffy towel.
Amy's addicted to blind boxes. That's basically
adult, that's like gambling, eh?
What do you mean blind boxes?
When you buy things and you don't know what's in it? It might be a
theme, it might be like
Lego mini figurines or
Nidos. Right.
Something like that, you don't know what you're getting
And so you get lots of double up
So it encourages the trade thing
But people love buying the unknown

They are thumbing bisk off into everything.
Cabri mini eggs aren't cream eggs.

Was it their margarine?
Of course it was.
Boomers love Olivani.
Does Tony Street eat margarine?
Of course she does.
That olivani screamed Tony Street.
And I just took a spoon for it.
Yeah, because on the lead and vivid, it said T-Street.
T-Street.
Yeah, to Street.
Yeah, and I worked that out as Tony Streets.

Today's fact of the day
is about
King Faruk
the first of Egypt.
The final,
the final king of
Egypt.
Okay.
Before the revolution
in 1952,
I believe
the Egyptian
revolution was.
Here are some
of Faruuk's
greatest hits
than diabolical
royals.
The red car
monopoly.
He owned over
100 cars,
all were red,
and issued a royal
decree
banning any
other Egyptian from owning a red vehicle.
Goodness. He was the only person
that was allowed a red vehicle in all of Egypt.
Did it really stand out when you saw him?
Oh, yeah, yeah, really stand out.
He pickpocketed Winston Churchill.
What? Apparently, he was like
a proper kleptomaniac, like he couldn't
help himself. He was always pinching stuff.
During a formal diplomatic visit
with English Prime Minister
during World War II, Winston Churchill,
he was sitting with him
and he nicked his pocket watch.
allegedly later returned it quietly through intermediaries
that were like, I think he dropped this.
Brilliant.
He didn't drop it.
Brilliant.
He stole a ceremonial sword from the Shah of Iran.
A fellow he had a state of a formal function.
The Shah was like, where's my sword gone?
And King Farooke's like, I got a sword.
I got a sword.
He was making lightsaber noises.
Stamps and watermelons.
30 years before it came out, yeah.
Oh my God.
He also reportedly picked pocketed a watch from King Peter of Yugoslavia.
He just said, this just happened.
Yeah, right.
He was also, he loved a feast, loved a feast.
He was a young trim king when he was first elected,
oh, sorry, first took over,
and he ballooned to over 300 pounds.
Every day he had a feast.
And the Egyptian press called him the Fat King towards the end.
He had a vast pornography collection.
One of the largest ever privately assembled pornography collections.
How do I know this?
Well, they auctioned it off after the revolution,
along with everything else he left.
behind.
Nice.
He owned King Fernand.
What was it?
What was his, what were his keywords?
Well, they didn't do keywords then.
It was magazines.
Ah.
Yeah.
So just what was given?
Anything and everything.
Yeah.
So when he was deposed and was given six hours to leave Egypt, he made his staff
pack his crates.
He took 200 crates with him, 200 shipping crates with him into exile.
Where did he exile to?
After exile, he moved to Monaco and Rome where he lived in lavish hotels.
but quickly burnt through all of his money and his belongings.
He auctioned off heaps of the stuff he owned.
But he was still internationally recognisable,
and guess what?
Still stealing.
Cheapestling.
Still stealing.
Loved stealing.
He was arrested multiple times for shoplifting
and just stealing from people in his exile.
Yeah.
So more about his exile.
He kept eating at Rome's finest restaurants
and got even bigger than he was.
reportedly consumed a dozen oysters as a starter.
A whole roast chicken is an appetizer
and often indulged in 12 course meals
before requesting to see the pudding menu.
Of course.
What's on the menu?
My man.
Sir, you would like to see the pudding menu?
Well, pause.
Yeah, so he kept going.
He died on March 18, 1965, aged 45.
He collapsed at a table mid-meal and died of a heart attack.
However, he had...
He had finished his usual dozen oysters,
a lobster, a whole roast lamb,
multiple desserts,
and he washed down with orange juice because,
for all his fault,
he was a teetotaler, he didn't shrink.
Oh, okay.
He collapsed at the table,
mid-meal and died of a heart attack,
and never paid the bill.
I mean, that is, like, what a way to go.
Yes.
I want to die full of lamb, lobster and oysters,
but plenty of champagne on top.
This guy must have had a bit of gout.
He must have had a bit of gout.
He must say to have a limp every now
and then after a rich meal,
and someone's like,
Oh, the king gouts kicked in.
So today's fact of the day about Diomarchal Royals is the story of King Farok I'm the only man allowed to drive red cars.

I feel bad giving her ear time.
She buys a pepperoni pizza,
takes the pepperoni off and then also scrap some of the cheeses off
because she says it's too much cheese for her.
Oh, I do not relate to that.
I'm sorry.
No, I buy pizza and put more cheese on it.
And more pepperoni and more vegetables.
And more meats.
Just all of mushrooms and everything.
Now I want pizza.
I'm not going to rest until I've got pizza in my belly today.
Until you've got pizza in your belly.
What have you done?
Wood fired?
No, I'll take cheap.
You take cheap pizza.
I don't care. Really?
Any pizza.
Any pizza is a good pizza.
So it got me on to want to know about your picky eaters.
Because I do not like piggy eaters.
It's when someone orders a burger and takes half the staff off of it.
And you're just left with this really basic burger that you've paid so much money for.
You're like, what are you bothering?
Yeah.
Why don't they ask for it to be taken out before it arrives?
Some people do
Some people do burgers
It's just like adults that won't try food
Oh no I don't like the texture
What
Well that's a thing for people
No it's my mum drives me up the wall
I don't like that Vaughn
Have you tried it mum
No but I know I don't like it
Because I've smelt it
And I know I don't like that
I smelt that on somebody else's dish
I won't have it
And you can hide it in her food
Guess what she'll eat it
She doesn't know it's there
Except spice
Except spice
You can't do spice
I'll forgive it for that
But everything else
You gotta try it
these things. I love trying new food.
Yeah, me too. I'm trying weird food.
We're a bit adventurous.
That's why we all get on.
Go out and just order lots and eat it all of it.
Yeah. I mean, I'll still get a butter chicken. Don't get me wrong, but I'll also
try other things. Yeah, you'll also eat like slop an oyster in you. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Oh, we love sloping and oyster.
But some people just get really particular about their food.
Mm.
Or the way they have one particular food, eh?
Yep.
I just been like, I want this, but it's got to be cut like this.
Like adults that don't want their food touching.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

How much of a pick-eater are you or someone you have to deal with?
We're talking about your fussy eaters, your picketters, your people who are pain in the ass when it comes down.
I just want to give this one a quick mention 917.
My sister-in-law lives with my partner and I, and she will not cut up chicken breasts unless she's wearing
gloves.
Who has that many
pairs of gloves?
I hope she's listening.
Tori.
P.S.
Thanks for you
dinner last night,
but it did taste like gloves.
What, like latex on your chicken?
Yuck!
Sarah, are you a fussy eater?
Hi, no.
My husband has a fussy eater.
Okay, so what's
one of the things he does?
Yeah.
Well, the biggest one that drives me crazy
is he won't chew peas,
but he'll still insist on eating him.
So we'll have a plate of peas
and he'll just be swallowing them with a glass of water chaser after it.
I'm sorry, what?
I'm embarrassed.
Wait out pee pills.
Yeah, I think as a child, his parents made him eat peas, which traumatised them.
Same.
Same.
So now he eats them, but we'll not swallow them because of the popping texture.
Oh, my, I guess.
We'll not chew them.
Is it too late for an annulment?
No.
No, that's just one of many things.
If you put it on the divorce papers reason for divorce,
The dude swallows peas like they're pills.
No, lawyers, or the judge is going to hold that.
No, they're not, are they?
No.
I mean, just don't eat peas, you know?
Yeah, don't eat them.
That's what I say, and I love peas.
So he just eats the peas and I would eat the peas.
How good peas, though, eh?
Nah, I'm with your husband.
They're yuck.
I don't like them.
Oh, I love the mashy, mushy piece of mint.
Because I was made to eat them as a kid as well.
Oh, no, they were all.
Love them.
Sarah, thank you.

I'm a pee and a keesh.

Carrot and corn, of course.
Yucking it a health food of sorts.
I have a good friend who won't eat anything that's been wrapped in Glad Rap.
No other reason that she says it gives her the ick.
I kind of, I mean, I...
Clemip's yark.
Yeah, it's yark, but I get it.
My sister won't eat pasta salad.
However, the alternative is
Mum will set aside some of the cold pasta for her
Before she makes it into the salad
She'll happily eat that
Oh, yuck
Like raw pasta
Without sauce and goof on it
My friend regularly states
She's not a fussy eater
But will not eat anything that came from the sea
Or any meat that's on a bone
Or tomatoes
Yes
Why would people eat meat off the bone?
I love meat off the bone
It took me a while
Yeah lots of people are like that
Really?
Find it gross
Because just so them the gnarly bits
You're like, oh, yeah.
I love getting their teeth into the bite.
It's where the flavour is.
You're not going to survive in the wild, though, aren't you?
Well, keep your text coming in.
966, 0,800,000.
How much of a fussy eater are you?
Are you a picky eater or someone you know?
Dob them in.
Oh, my God.
How much?
Fussy eaters and this message is literally just come in.
My daughter, who's 14, won't eat minced, tomatoes
or any meal with tomatoes in it, eggs, bread, sausages, yoga, all bananas,
but she'll eat spaghetti cold straight from the can.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
What do you even make for dinner when you rule all of that out?
Chips.
Somebody said what about Fussy drink?
Yeah, Dino Nugge.
Dipped in the Colts bag can.
What about a fussy drinker?
Someone said, I'll eat anything.
The drinks are another story.
No tea, no coffee, no beer.
And don't even think about putting a vegetable near a smoothie or a juice.
That's disgusting.
Oh, that's disgusting.
That's disgusting.
You're disgustin.
I'm one fussy eater, said Ariel.
No seafood, no meat off the bone, no mushrooms, no.
tomatoes, no spicy foods, and I'll have phases where I only eat one food and then I go off
that one so I won't touch that either.
Wow.
Okay.
I suppose it just kind of becomes your thing.
Yeah.
Whereas my problem is I eat everything and I want all of it all the time.
Yeah, I love food so much.
I live for food.
I can't imagine never having mushrooms.
I love mushrooms so much.
Chuck mushrooms in it.
Oh, I love mushrooms on everything.
Yeah.
Creamy mushrooms, fried mushrooms and eggs.
I had no, like, no real ingredients, like no real thought the other day.
And I had wraps, I had pesto, I had cheese, I had mushrooms.
I made little rap pesto pizzas with mushrooms.
Now we're talking about it.
Boom.
Shaka, boom.
Husband won't eat orange food.
Daughter won't let me mash potato due to the texture.
Sun won't eat tomatoes and I have intolerance to nitrate food, e.g.
Capsicum and potato.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
What are you having for dinner every night?
Chips and dino nugs.
Dust.
Dust.
Dust.
What is it in plants?
Is it chloram?
chlorophyll
chlorophyll
chloroform is the one you put up
yes
I was like a good night
Yeah
Um
I'm the fussy eater
Um
Yeah
It's people just dobbing themselves in
Yeah
I can't eat the ends of things
I sort of get that
sausages
Hot chips
Bread
Bread drinks
Wait
Anything with a tip
I have to break it off
And cut off the ends
Wait they leave
Chip the tips
They get a hot chip
A great bitch
and the middle.
And then leave the rest.
My mate won't have anything green.
So that's all vegetables.
No green jelly beans.
Nothing.
No green foot bursts.
Lettuce is a big no as well.
You know we're dealing here with a couple,
Rian and Matthew.
Remember they'd message in about each other constantly?
Yes.
He owes her $600 from the pokies win.
He's got terrible toenails.
Is he paid up after the pokies win?
No, Rian's just messaged.
I'm waiting for Matthew to text in and complain about me.
I haven't eaten fruit in 37 years.
I eat fruit every day.
You eat more fruit than any human being I know.
I've got a couple of oranges here.
Aren't we in?
We are in the midst of the return of the apple.
Usually we have an apple.
I had a luxurious apple on the drive to this morning.
I've got an embrasure here that we'll cut in too soon.
But usually we have it before nine.
Yeah, I'm a bit like this morning.
It's daylight savings.
He's slowly getting us used to it being a day an hour later.
I'm really going to miss my apple when I'm broadcasting
from Melbourne.

Fleshhorn and Haley.
Here's a brilliant thing to remember
next time you're in the kitchen and you're feeling
uninspired.
Nachos are a concept, not a dish.
Okay. So nachos are a concept meaning
it's a template. You can change
the parts that make it up.
Exactly. So you've got your corn chips,
your mints, your sour cream,
your guac, right? Or cheese.
Yeah, it pulls lots of savories.
That's your kind of thing.
You were about to tell me about sweet nachos.
I am my brother.
I don't know.
Eastern nachos.
I don't know, then.
Eastern nachos.
On the bottom, we're putting a salty, thick chip.
I'm thinking a snack of changy's salted chip.
Okay.
That's got to be neutral, though.
That's what I mean salted.
That's got to be really salted.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That can't be salt and vinegar or barbecue or anything.
Even sour cream and chives.
It can't be that.
It's got to be fully neutral.
Or pre and Clint's hot honey chips.
No, it won't work for that.
I want to support our friends.
I want to support them in this.
It's not appropriate for this.
Okay, it's not like...
No, okay.
You could put, what about...
You could put a digestive biscuit.
Or a crispy.
A wine biscuit.
No, like a super wine.
Super wine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so that's on the bottom.
It is weird how sitting down and eating a bag of biscuits would be absolutely like,
I've been so naughty.
But if you sit down and ate a bag of chips, you're like, that's what they're for.
That's what I'm going to have, like, three.
Okay, so on that, then we're going to melt some chocolate.
Okay.
Put it over.
That's our nacho cheese.
That is your like tomato base
Like a pizza
That's your base
That's your base
Where no no no
That's your yeah
Hold on just one minute
Haley Fletch
Tell your natcho cheese chow
She'll like that
She does comedy
So I put
So you get in the chocolate
That's your nacho cheese
That's not your cheese
No I said it wrong
I said it wrong
I'd panic
What was that?
That's nacho cheese
To spread
I mean
That's good
That's nacho cheese
Yeah that's nutchal cheese
Yeah that's notchal cheese
Oh God he's
How do you know it?
Isn't the joke how do you know that's my cheese on that topic?
That's nacho cheese.
So what you're doing, Fletch?
This is a great learning moment.
It doesn't get better the bigger you make it.
Are you sure?
And it does.
That's a secret to funny.
That's nacho cheese.
That's natural cheese.
Try some different accents.
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay, so you chocolate is your nachol cheese.
Oh, don't say that.
Oh, for God's sake, you've abandoned me in my hour of need.
Then your mince.
You're not put a mince.
mince on it. What we're crumbling up for Easter
mini Easter eggs. A bit of a rocky road medley, shall we say.
You know, your chocolates and whatnot.
Kind of like a chakutory board meets
nachos. Yeah, right. Because natures is a concept
not a dish. Yeah, dessert board. Do you bake it?
No, no, no, no, no. The chocolate's melted as you put it on
as the natcho chasing place. Oh, you put on liquid chocolate? Could you put
on some of that
uh, uh, that spread that the kids are going wild for?
The Dubai, uh, pistachio.
Yeah, that would be pretty on. Yeah, yeah, you could.
That would pop off.
But I'm like, what else could we, like...
What about wheat, uh, wheat books?
Oh, get out.
Yuck.
Okay, I'll leave.
Sorry.
Um, what's that?
Biscop.
Biscop.
This would be amazing with Biscop biscuits.
But I'm like, if Nachos is just the template, this has opened up my whole world.
Yeah.
But you could do an Asian one, like,
now we're talking.
Puffed up prawn crackers on the bottom.
Uh-huh.
Or puffed up wanton skins, you know, deep fried.
Like that.
Yeah.
And then you could go a porky Asian mince.
on top?
Like that?
Oh yeah.
And then your drizzle
like a hoisten
or something?
Can I,
can I take the next,
can I take the next flight
from, I don't know
I feel like we might be
in Thailand or Vietnam
there?
Can we take a flight to Dubai,
not Dubai,
New Delhi?
We could do Indian nachos.
Okay, so what are we got on the base?
Well, those,
Popadoms.
Popatoms.
Yeah.
Popperoms is the base.
Bata chicken on top.
Or like a curry sauce on top.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A little bit.
Not too much.
Corrienda,
Corrienda.
But of your ice.
A bit of yoga.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
International nachos.
International nachos.
This could be what heals the world.
We could do Nacho week.
Not for the fact of the day.
Just we could do Nacho week.
And every night for dinner, we'll, we make a nacho.
It's a great idea.
It's a great idea.
Because you could do a nacho.
You could do an Italian nacho.
But it would just be a lois.
Yeah, that's a nacho, nach.
No, no.
Do you joke?
No, that's not.
You're nacho.
It's a nacho, nacho.
That's better.
I just say,
Is a not your nacho cheese.
Yeah, you know what I mean.
You know what I mean.
It's a nacho cheese.
The ZRAM Podcast Network.
Well, there's been a trend online where Gen Z and millennials,
and I'm guessing Gen X as well, because they're below boomers.
Yeah.
Are sharing their boomer.
Boomer opinions.
That they agree with.
The ones that you're like, I'm a woke, modern, young person in this world.
However.
Yes.
Yes.
I do think.
insert opinion here.
Yeah, I mean, are we opening up a door here?
I'm a little bit nervous.
I've just Googled a list of Burma opinions.
Okay, go.
So if you're thinking right now, you're sitting there and you're like,
I don't agree with any Burma's opinions.
Okay, go.
Avocado toast is why young people can't afford houses.
You don't need a gym membership.
You just need to do some yard work.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
Nothing beats a good steak cooked well done.
I will punch anyone that calls up and says that.
Coffee should be black.
It's not a dessert with a lid.
That's more.
That's mine.
It's yours.
When it's two.
No, boomers love a bloody, what do they get?
A bowl.
A bowl latte.
But it's not sweet.
No, see, I think it's the Gen X's.
The more the bowl latte.
I don't reckon boomers would go out for coffee.
No.
They do love going out, though.
Fast food was better when it was actually fast.
Just walk in and ask for a job.
That's how it's done.
Nobody wants to work anymore.
You should stay at a company for 30 years.
A firm handshake tells you everything about a person.
Yeah, totally agree.
That's a good one.
I agree.
If we made that time and it was the limpest little custard handshake.
But also like how you...
I recently had a fishy handshake and I was like, no, not for me.
Or just like even how you carry yourself.
Like I saw someone the other day's moping around.
I was like...
Yeah.
Look at you.
With their hoodie sleeves put over the head.
Arms, shoulders back.
Yeah.
Shoulders back, boy.
Am I a boomer?
Like, walk properly.
If you can't afford it, don't buy it?
Hallelujah.
Oh, unless it's a house.
Do you know what I mean?
The things that are coming up, you have to pay for it.
You'll deal with that on the day.
Paying someone else to mow your lawns is pure laziness.
Oh.
Work should feel hard.
It's called work for a reason.
Oh, I hate that.
Okay, well, that's got the ball rolling.
Is there a boomer opinion that you agree with?
And obviously, you're not a boomer.
Below boomer age, if you're listening.
Is there a boomer opinion that you agree with?
Maybe you don't let yourself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe you don't let yourself leave the table until your plate's clear.
You tell your partner was no pudding
Go to your room, you have it cold
Imagine doing that a no pudding rule
With your partner, that's not lasting long
Well someone said I believe that millennials are too sensitive
Oh, Gen Z's too sensitive
No, we're the last of the
You literally cried yesterday
When I called you a name
Yeah, but it was Fannie Bumba
That's right Fannie Bum Bum
No, I'll do it again
Okay, 9-6-96-text in
0,800 dials it in
What's the boomer opinion that you agree with?
Do you share a boomer opinion?
You know, you're a younger generation.
You consider yourself progressive and all such.
But every now and then you're like,
they did have a point when they said
participation trophies are ruining a generation.
Yeah.
I actually do share that boomer opinion.
You very much.
We just can't all be winners.
No.
That's a thing.
I would say soft and quiet, was it quiet parenting
or soft parenting,
where they just kind of let their kids
do whatever they want?
That's a no-go.
And that's a very popular one
people are messaging in.
Then I think about how happy
old bloody Haley here was
when she got her medal
for not winning that 8K race.
Around the base.
You were so happy when you got a medal.
Hung it up on my wall, yeah.
Start of a very small collection of only one.
But you literally lost.
Like thousands of people beat you in that race.
No, I was actually in the top third.
wasn't I?
Yeah, but you lost by
thousand people did it.
Yeah, and I wasn't
the loser.
I think the second third
and the third third, no medal,
completely agree, piss take.
But the top third
of which high was a part.
Should get a medal.
Absolutely, we've trained our asses off.
We couldn't even finish it.
Yeah. Children should be seen
and not heard as ringing bells in my head.
That was always, I got told this all the time
when I was a child out with my parents.
Probably why my mother thinks I run a pirate ship with my kids
Because they are both seen and heard
And heard
So you don't agree with that opinion though
Then?
No
My boomer take is when people say their job is boring
I say your job isn't there to entertain you
It's there to make money to be entertained
However you choose
Now do your boring job
I sort of agree
Like we don't all get to have a fun job
Just ask
This isn't just like you
Wanting the two thirds
And the third thirds
Not to get a medal
Just because you're
Very boomer of you
To have an opinion that suits you
but the others.
Yeah.
Yeah, a bit of a nimbie situation,
a bit of a pulling the ladder up behind you deal going on there.
Almost feels like I need to change my vote,
the party that I vote for.
It's almost like not aligning with how I live.
No.
Everything was fine before the internet.
Somebody messaged in.
Which it wasn't.
It wasn't.
It wasn't.
It was a horrendous thing.
But it certainly is causing a lot of problems.
Yeah.
You know, amplifying the problems.
Drink some water and walk it off.
We didn't have allergies back in my day.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, just rumbly guts that you just put up with, eh?
Yeah, IBS wasn't a thing.
Oh, come on.
You've just eaten too much.
Too many people are on, too many medications.
Somebody messaged in.
That's the way they say, oh, there was an autism back in the day.
And then I think about what my grandad was like.
I was like, there there was.
Oh, my God, 100%.
They totally was.
What happened to common sense?
It's not very common these days.
Yeah.
Be a call.
Ah.
There are too many holidays now.
I don't agree with that.
I don't agree.
We need more holidays.
I think every Friday should be a holiday.
Crime's way worse than it used to be,
even when statistics say otherwise,
booms are always like crime was never this bad.
But it was.
Yeah.
You just didn't hear about it.
We just get to see it all the time.
Yeah.
Not to have to pick up the paper.
No one knows how to drive anymore.
Absolutely loving the lack of racism in our text machine.
It's great, isn't it?
I haven't seen any racism on our text machine.
That's what I mean.
Yeah.
Because when we did ask this question,
that was my initial thought was,
oh-oh.
What's your boomer opinion?
When it comes down a question.
We had a stand-up comedy
used to be funny
before everybody got so sensitive.
Oh, okay, yep.
Reality TV is rotting people's brains.
I agree, yeah.
Shut up.
Literally maths was so good last night.
Movies don't have proper endings anymore.
Movies it?
Music these days is just noise.
Oh.
No one writes.
letters anymore and that's a shame. That's so expensive to send a letter. You know I wrote a
big note, a big note, an A4 size note to the neighbours saying there's Reno's happening. Yeah.
And it was real hard to do like so much handwriting. It heard say. Oh, you hand wrote it? Yeah,
I hand wrote it on a printer. Because I don't have the printer here. I don't have the printer here.
I don't have the printer at home. Had you packed up your printer at home? I thought you had a printer at home.
No, Haley's got a printer at home. I also have a printer at home. I used it yesterday. I don't know that
posh. I don't have a print. I don't need to print anything.
I just stole a ream of paper from the stationary cupboard for my printer at home.
I'm just saying we don't say it out loud when we take some paper home.
A few different things we don't say out.
I didn't steal a room of paper, but I've got a printer at home.
That's better.
Play that ends, Flesh, Forne and Haley.
Well, great news.
Fletch wet the bed last.
This is a way funny story.
This is a way funny story.
Blah, blah, blah.
Blah, blah.
Science are going to make it so long fingernails can use touchscreen.
No.
Okay, look, the story just...
If your fingernails are that long, they look,
Stupid.
Okay.
Science is working on a paint-on substance
that will go on your long nails.
It will make it like a stylus.
Yeah, yeah, cute.
So you'll be able to touch screens
and also your smartphone without having to...
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Fletch with the bed last night.
You sent us a video from a laundromat
at like 4 o'clock this morning.
So I'm going to...
So on my to-do list today is doing my sheets
because I'm going away.
Just piss the bed.
Don't be embarrassed, man.
people have accidents.
Sometimes without hours.
Like I went to bed quite early last night.
I woke up and it was...
You're really, you're so tired.
So tired early, you don't wake up.
You're full of water because you're so hydrated.
Without hours, it can be difficult to know when to stop drinking water and when to pee.
So I woke up at 3.30 and I was like, well, you know what?
I'm just going to go to the laundromat, which by the way, there's a guy that's taken to sleeping there now.
That's his home.
I've been to that laundromat with you before and it is a lovely warm.
It's a lovely warm.
It's a lovely.
Yeah.
I went to the laundromat.
last weekend.
And I've got to say the smell rules.
I love it.
It's just good for sheets
because they dry in 20 minutes.
Yeah, especially the frequency in which you're pissing the bed.
I will say the reason I went over...
I know you're washing them before you just straight put them in the dryer.
Because they're that nice scent and the laundromat is just going to be dry piss.
It's going to ring around it.
The reason I did my sheets is because I don't have to do them after work.
I've already done them because I woke up and I had the time.
I didn't piss the bed.
I didn't piss the bed.
I didn't put the bed.
I didn't know.
I miss the bed.
What are you guys saying?
I've met you.
If we got to your house, you've got the windows open and the mattress
standing up on.
The windows are open, but the mattress is...
As someone who wet the bed till nine,
I want you to know that you don't need to be ashamed.
I haven't pissed the bed.
Okay, so you've pissed the bed.
You're going to sleep in the streets tonight.
You're going to sleep in the streets tonight.
Yeah.
But they'll only have one sleep in them.
Oh, yeah, yeah, as opposed to, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you don't do anything else in the sheets tonight,
then you've gone to all this effort.
No, exactly.
No, fun times.
No, fun times.
No, no more beds.
Clean shape.
Well no, because our house sitter's got to have the...
Maybe he had a guest and they pissed the minute.
Oh, no.
Nobody has pissed the bed.
Somebody's pissed the bed.
But what about what you saw on the floor at the laundromat?
Well, yeah, there was...
This is why I sent the video on the group chat.
There was a bag of druggies or an empty bag of drugs with residue.
And I was like...
And the laundromat.
I mean, if you were going to do drugs.
If you've got the money for drugs, you've got the money to...
But washing the shit.
If you know what I reckon happened is someone had it in their pocket,
and they were emptying out their clothes.
Oh.
Well, they were putting their clothes in.
Shaking the thing.
Yeah, and they haven't seen it on the ground.
I mean, I guess the glacier didn't go through the wash.
But, yeah, that was.
Or it might have?
I don't know.
Funny.
I've had a tissue or a receipt in my pocket when it's gone through the wash.
Oh, my God, constantly.
I've had to put, like, washing back in the machine after a tissue,
and it still didn't get all the tissue off.
No, you wash them, like, four times,
and then you've got to wash it as a singular item.
And did you know you shouldn't wash microfiber towels or standard towels?
Why?
Because they, all the lint.
get from the other towels,
get stuck to the,
I only found this out when I was,
what are you tramping?
No, I use a,
I go bed, pisser, calm down.
Let's all brag off the aggression here.
Well, he doesn't want to,
he doesn't want a towel that soaks up anything.
He wants to use a microfiber towel.
I used it to drive the,
I wash my car at the weekend,
I used it to dry the ride, okay.
But it previously had been washed with a load of towels
and it had just got all the lint from all the towels.
Oh, what a mess.
That's just a bit of the PSA.
Just a PSA there if you are washing sheets.
Otherwise known as a pisser.
If you like today's podcast, tell your friends.
You could send them the link.

Yeah, great.
