Starting point is 00:01:20 Did you hear the, did you hear the pause? And she, oh my God. I was trying to like make it sound real, I don't know, professional or something. But I had the best time. It was so funny. You're really good at that.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Yeah, thank you. Thank you. And there was a few things that I was like, ha ha ha. Yes, I know. Heavy female audience yesterday. It was my favorite show because I think the women were just like, you see me. Oh my gosh. These two women in you see me. Oh my gosh, these two women in front of me,
Starting point is 00:01:47 there was something that you said and she was the only one that was like, me! And it was, she was exposing herself is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Well, thank you to everyone that's come so far. Two more chances and if you come tonight you'll see Vaughan. Oh my God, Vaughan,
Starting point is 00:02:00 I have a video for you. Did you receive it? There was a ZM listener who was, I'll say it, couple of bottles deep. Oh, no. And she said,
Starting point is 00:02:08 you can talk about me on Radio Tomorrow. Oh, no. You can talk about, I'm making a video. Get a phone video. Vaughn, you are, all the things Hayley says in her show,
Starting point is 00:02:23 I would do them to you, Vaughn. I would do them all to you if warm. So my love, there is a video heading your way. That's a nice compliment. She wants to devour you. What is your show doing to these women? She was not only drunk, she was so horned up at the end of it. That's my promise to you.
Starting point is 00:02:44 That I haven't seen for ages, I saw they went, and I replied like, how was that? First thing this morning, how was that? And they replied being like, my fanny was a flutter. And I was like, we're not those friends. I don't believe we are that close in nature for you to tell me that. Yeah. Well, yeah, two more shows.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Are these tickets sold? It says it's sold out, but turn up, because each night I've seen a peppering a few seats, because people book so far in advance, and then they're like, ah, I'm not going out on a Thursday. So maybe some standby tickets. Some standby tickets.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Okay. We'll get into the top six soon. Vaughan Lee Bougie is next week, Thursday, the budget. And I tell you what, we don't need bad news Brad today, because you've got bad news Smithy. I'm the Economist but I've got the top six signs New Zealand's economy is in a bad shape.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Because there was five data points and they're boring. Yep. Data points that say the New Zealand economy is in worse shape than you think. You've got six Vaughan Smith data points. Yeah. Okay. Big data points. Great. Okay. Big data points. Great.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Call me Big Daddy Data. Join on the show after Human Shazam this morning at 8. Your chance to win some cash. Bye. And I know you're fizzing about this. John and Joe. Joe Robertson and John Aitken, our maths experts. Maths New Zealand starts. We're talking to John because he does the Australian one as well.
Starting point is 00:04:04 We're going to speak to them about the new season which starts, I'm literally reading about it now. On Sunday, yeah. Next. Quiet vacationing. Let's talk about the idea of quiet vacationing. Very popular in America. Like an island and there's no one around. No, but oh my god, shut up. That sounds so
Starting point is 00:04:20 nice. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. This feels like a terrible work ethic. 78% of US workers say they don't take all of their what do they
Starting point is 00:04:35 say? PTO days. Annual leave. Annual leave. What would that be? PTO? Please turn over. Please turn over. Hello. It's please turn over. Bottom of the page BTO Paid time off Oh paid time off Which is annual leave
Starting point is 00:04:48 That's annual leave But then Americans like Are always amazed When you tell them That you get like Four weeks leave Yeah By law
Starting point is 00:04:56 Yeah yeah yeah Or Europeans are like And they're just like What? They negotiate it right Yeah And as part of their Contract
Starting point is 00:05:03 Yeah It's expected Yeah if you work for a good company, they would give you, yeah, health insurance and paid time off. Yeah, hell yeah. But it's not like you're not meant to get it. So the people that aren't taking it, this annual leave, is the highest in Gen Z workers and then millennials,
Starting point is 00:05:21 according to this survey. And then they say it's because they feel like pressure to meet deadlines and be productive and hold an image of like I'm really working for this company I'm not slack and they think that by taking their days off they look like they're being slack. I was like that's terrible. You gotta
Starting point is 00:05:38 take them man. We live for our holidays. I'm not gonna by the way you guys need to get on board with how many days left till our holiday because you're out of sync with each other. By the way, you guys need to get on board with how many days left till our holiday because you're out of sync with each other. You said 25, but you said 25 two days ago. Can you just have a little hooey? No, I said 25 shows to go.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I do shows to go. Yeah. And I count the show that we're about to do. I don't because I consider that done. Can you just have a little hooey? Can you have a little hooey and decide? I counted how many work days. I will say for those that don't have holidays coming up in like five weeks like we do,
Starting point is 00:06:08 there is a long weekend next weekend. Oh, I know. Queen's birthday. Yeah, did you allow for that? Yes, I did. Hanging out for that. Your numbers are out of sync. How many week days?
Starting point is 00:06:17 After this, there will be 24 shows to go. Okay. Because of Queen's birthday. Okay. Anyway, that doesn't matter. By the by. That was a little bit of personal admin. The point you make, though, is, like, you've got to have something to look forward to. You have to have something in the calendar.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Even if it's a long weekend where you do nothing. Exactly. Even if you take a Friday. Long weekend doing nothing. I know. Mind you, I'd go, ah. I've got some jobs to do. I'm doing nothing. I would've been out here I'm doing nothing
Starting point is 00:06:47 I would not I'm doing nothing and then I was like maybe we could have the gaggle over on Friday maybe we'll do that well then there's Saturday written off and then anyway
Starting point is 00:06:53 so apparently so they're not doing these things they're leaving all their PTO or their annual leave there but they are taking time off
Starting point is 00:07:04 in a different way. Doing some remote working from home. Like chucking on another little day as we do like a long weekend. And then like going away and not really working on that Friday. I'm going to be working from home. Jokes. Absolutely. So they're pretending
Starting point is 00:07:20 to log on to Teams or whatever on their phone or their laptop. Move the mouse. To show they're still active on their phone or their laptop. Move the mouse. Move the mouse. To show they're still active on their platforms, Teams, and all that. Sometimes they're scheduling messages to send out. Oh, there's one at 11. Oh, yep, yep. There's one at 3.
Starting point is 00:07:36 But I always thought like with scheduled, you're scheduled. Scheduled? Scheduled. Scheduled? No, it's a bus schedule. Or is it a bus schedule. Schedule. I've never... I don't F with this S.
Starting point is 00:07:49 I can't even think about what that word is. But I would have thought if you were slacking off and you schedule emails... Yeah. For the day, like, that's like literally going to knock on you, right, to your boss. Does it say that it's scheduled? Well, surely, like, IT can see your emails, right? Yeah. So they would see if it's a scheduled email, right?
Starting point is 00:08:08 Right. Well, they're saying they're doing it the sneaky way behind the scenes to maintain an air of I'm constantly working. I have to do it from home today because I have a whatever, but I will be working the whole time. You've got to get to that stage. And then you just have a little break. Where you realise that, you know, you're just working for a company.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Yeah, but maybe it's different. I mean, this is in America. Maybe it's different. They don't feel that kind of job security. Maybe there's a tougher market. This has got big Japan energy. Yeah, it does. Why?
Starting point is 00:08:34 Hard workers. They all work themselves to death. Yeah. Like there's a Japanese term for dying at your desk, right? Like there's a whole lot of these intents. You'll never experience that. Never. Whatever heart attack.
Starting point is 00:08:47 I could die here. Never rule it out. Writing in the New York Times, the ice cream industry apparently has been moving away from the flavour chocolate chip. Yeah, it's crap. In recent years. I don't think chocolate chip's ever been massive here
Starting point is 00:09:05 because we've had Hokey Pokey. The superior plain flavour with exciting little nuggets. Orange chocolate chip. Or mint chocolate chip. Or mint chocolate chip. Mint chocolate chip rule. But vanilla chocolate chip, why would you? Just have vanilla.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Yeah, and that's what they say. Thanks to the buffet of flavours and options, chocolate chip is now being perceived as passé. Why are they talking about new flavours like new flavoured ice creams are a new thing? Yeah, I don't know. And around 2022, we discovered we could add other flavours. We could put peanut butter in that thing.
Starting point is 00:09:34 We could do whatever we wanted. But yeah, well, that's what they're saying because there are so many like incredible mixes and flavours that apparently now they're just like moving away from just plain chocolate chip. Totally. But it used to be a big thing. Have we ever done ice cream flavours as final rankings? Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:09:50 We have done. Yeah, for sure. Goody gumdrops. But if you're going to have chocolate, you have like chocolate swirl with fudge and ribbons and ripples of chocolate. Or like Gold Rush, you're going to have chunks of chocolate, not like chips. Yeah. I wouldn't even go chocolate chip bicky as like
Starting point is 00:10:10 a favourite. Oh! Like kryptonite. Cookies and cream's good. Cookies and cream what? Ice cream? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So you'd go cookies and cream over choc chip. Oh yeah. 100%. 1000 times over. Yeah. This is why it's dying. Man, I haven't had, I was about to say,, I haven't had a cone for ages, which is also true.
Starting point is 00:10:29 But I haven't had an ice cream cone for so long. Because our dairy, as you know, we get them from Hitton every summer, and I love them. But now in winter, it's sort of a strange thing to get. What does he do with his ice creams? Do people still get them? The bar's still there, but I guess you just sell less. It's sort of a strange thing to get. What does he do with his ice creams over? Do people still get them? Or does he cover them up?
Starting point is 00:10:47 The bar's still there. But I guess you just sell less. Yeah, it's nuts. Like the fresh fruit ice cream places out my ass, when it was fine at the weekend, they just opened. And people were just like, yeah! Oh, the frozen, the real fruit ice creams. Yeah, I guess they've got frozen strawberries left over or whatever. But like, yeah, opening in a late autumn weekend,
Starting point is 00:11:03 just because it was fine. And people were like lined up for them. Well, the weather's been so lovely up in Auckland. Why not? I sat out in the sun yesterday and had a little beer in the sun. I was like, what is this, summer? Get out of here. Don't tell her to get out of here. I know.
Starting point is 00:11:18 We had our fireplace guy come over to service a fireplace in preparation for our first fire of the season. I was almost like, what a useless box that is. So hot. It's too hot. Thanks to global warming. You'll need that soon, though.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Wow, who knows? It's bloody warm, Barney. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. This is the Top Six. Hello there. An economist has said there's five data points that show New Zealand's economy might be in a worse shape than you think.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Budget next week. Yeah. And then the OCR was supposed to go down this week by my calculations to help me out with my interest rates on my mortgage repayments. Oh, but it didn't. A big chunk of those are coming up again soon. Me too, Vaughan. But they didn't go down.
Starting point is 00:12:04 And then somebody on the news was like, oh, if they do these tax cuts, that's just going to probably make inflation worse. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We need inflation to get down. Down, boy, down. Oh. Anyway, I've got the top six.
Starting point is 00:12:21 There's all like GDP per capita and intense stuff. But I've got the top six signs that the New Zealand economy is in a bad shape. Okay. Number six on the list. I don't know if you guys have noticed, but petrol prices only ever seem to go up. They do. There was a time, wasn't there, in COVID? When they came right on down and it was really fun.
Starting point is 00:12:42 They came down a little and then they went right back up. And then every time you go, they've just gone up a little bit. And then they go down a little bit, and you're like, yeah, they're down. And then the next week, they've gone up more than they went down. And you're like, huh. If you take out that week and drew a graph, I'm never going up. You've got to start using your supermarket receipt like Carwin does, Hayley. She's saving heaps.
Starting point is 00:13:02 She is. I go to Costco. Oh, yeah, okay. I use the Caltex app. You get six cents. I got six cents off a litre this morning. Caltex? How many of those are left? That's the one in my little neighbourhood.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Oh, right, okay. It's got nothing, eh? No shop. Nothing. It's just a cup of pump. Oh, that's good because then you don't buy chocolates. A cup of pump you do is no chocolates. Speaking of which, number five on the list of the I'm no economist, but I've got the top six signs New Zealand economy's in bad shape.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Chocolate is only getting smaller and more expensive. What's happening there? I'm a bit of an economist. I did economics up until fifth form. You did economy at school? I did economies. When things get more expensive, they're also supposed to get bigger. No.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Because there's more of it, so we pay more for it. We pay more because we pay for more of it. That's not how this is working. Yeah. That's not how it's working. Number four on the list of the top six signs of I'm no economist, but the New Zealand economy seems to have a be in bad shape. I'm earning more money in my
Starting point is 00:14:07 40s than I did in my 30s but I have less money in my 40s than I did in my 30s. How's that gone? That seems like a you problem. Puzzle me that. That seems like a you problem. It simply can't be. It really does seem like a you problem.
Starting point is 00:14:23 It simply can't be a me problem. Is that going to happen to me when I reach my 40s? Yep. That's what happens. No, thank you. That's what happens. Oh. That's what happens. It depends.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Do you want to renovate another villa? No, never again, sir. No, no. No, never again, sir. Number three on the list of the top six signs that the New Zealand economy is in a bad shape. I have not seen a $100 bill for years. Yeah. Do they exist? Yes, they do. Apparently. I don't think I've ever had one. They've got Lord Ernest Rutherford
Starting point is 00:14:50 on them. Of course they do. I thought you said they'd gone to change to Lord. I was like, she deserves a note. She does deserve a note. Yeah. She's worked hard. Imagine, we replace one Lord for the other. Lord Ernest. Modify the money.
Starting point is 00:15:06 You know, modernise the money. Oh, Lord Ella. Yes. Our number two on the list of the top six signs the New Zealand economy is in a bad way. My retirement plan is lotto this weekend.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Mine too. Yeah. I think a lot of people's retirement plans. And if I have to split it with anybody. Hmm. Lame.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Not happy. Well, just remember, you have promised us the money. Yeah, but that's a little slice. Also, we all need to prove that we've actually bought tickets for this weekend because sometimes I feel like the people I make these deals with don't actually buy tickets. Oh, yeah, but you're only paying for it every week.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is what my mum still does as a syndicate with her old work friends. She's still in the work syndicate. Yeah, and I think they take a photo and send it to each other yeah I used to be part of them yeah
Starting point is 00:15:49 the person that's in charge that week isn't just pocketing it but they do they buy the same numbers every week and they show everyone they've got the ticket
Starting point is 00:15:56 yeah good that's what I'm saying you have to know you have to prove it alright and number one on the list of the top six signs
Starting point is 00:16:01 New Zealand's economy is in a bad shape the only fish I can afford to eat a chocolate fish and we're on an island surrounded by the effing ocean. Do you know how we've
Starting point is 00:16:11 mentioned it a few times that there's that infomercial for the fish feeder thing. You know the one that goes out this orange torpedo. And it takes your line out. The fish harvester. Yes, yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:16:22 And then it comes back in and they're like, why would you be paying this for fish? And it shows the price of fish at $14.99 for snapper. Guess how much snapper
Starting point is 00:16:31 was at the supermarket two days ago when I went? $52 a kilogram. $52 a kilogram. What? And I bought the cheapest white
Starting point is 00:16:40 fillet fish there was. Hokie, in case you're wondering. Yum. I don't know if that's sustainable but it's yum. And I got home and Sade, white fish shamed me. Poo-poo to Hokie. She poo-pooed to Hokie.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Oh, yeah. She cuckoo Hokie. Gosh. And she was like, oh, Hokie. I was like, I am sorry, Princess of Wales. We cannot afford schnapper to be eating any of the other ones. Why would you Jesus be lucky to be eating actual fish? Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Exactly. Could have been eating fish fingers. I was very close to getting fish fingers. Yeah. I'm pretty sure it's a recipe that fish fingers would have worked. God knows what fish that is. A lovely Nadia Lim Korean sauce glazed fish. Yeah, great.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Would have gone great on a fish finger. Yeah, I know. It's all about the glaze. Glorious on a fish finger. Yeah, I know. It's all about the glaze. Glorious on a fish finger. You're going to hide that processing. $52 a kilogram? That is outrageous.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Hey, caramba. That is today's top six. I caramba. Did you just like caramba? I just like caramba. Play ZM's Fletchford and Haley. Play ZM. Are you plucking? Are you finally plucking?
Starting point is 00:17:46 Yeah, I'm plucking. The arm mole here. It's so long. I can't stop looking at it. It's literally distracting my life. I've just got the bad tweezers though. Yeah, it won't grab it. Oh, no, no, no, not the bad tweezers.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Got it. Oh, my God. It's so long. Let's measure it. Let's measure it. Yeah, I got it at the root. I got it at the root. I got it at the root. There's the root ball.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Oh, that's so long, isn't it? It's got to be in the fourth host on the show this week, hasn't it? That's got to be like 1.3 centimetres, I reckon. I'm going to say 1.3 centimetres. That's Corn's getting his tape measure out for this. Oh, no, I just cut it in half with the tweezers. Hang on. Let me put it back together.
Starting point is 00:18:22 What are we thinking there, Vaughan? There you go. There's the end of it. Okay. Now come along there to the tapered end. About two and a half. Oh, two and a half centimetres. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:18:32 That was big. That was just over an inch. Sorry, guys. Just getting some life ad. But I'm a busy girl at the moment. You've got to pluck your mole hairs when you've got time. No time for laser. No time for laser.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Not lasering that. Anyway, speaking of improving your appearance, there has been another celebrity that has jumped on the Ozempic bandwagon. And it's not Christina Aguilera. It's not Christina. She has done something. It's not Kelly Clarkson.
Starting point is 00:18:57 She's done something. It's not Kelly Osbourne. She's done something. Kelly Osbourne looks like she could walk down the street. I wouldn't even recognise her. No. She looks so, she's got that kind of truthy face thing going on. Yeah, lost a lot of weight really quickly is how you get that face. Excuse me. I'm emotional. You're upset.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Do you think there's a... Because you think everyone is beautiful no matter what they say. Yeah. Words can't bring me down. Do you think there's a live website where they add daily the people who are on Ozempic? I've seen a lot of lists like, yeah, the celebrities that are on it. Totally. Or they are alleged to be on it.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Tracy Morgan from 30 Rock is on Ozempic. He was a big dude. I think he had diabetes, though, so that might have been like a legitimate, yeah. I'm not here to say you can't go on it. It's there for people that struggle with their weight and often due to type 2 diabetes and things like polycystic ovaries. Whatever. Anyway, there is a new celebrity
Starting point is 00:19:51 and I think this trailer will tell you quite clearly who is on Ozempic. It's time for some drastic measures to bring down his weight. There's these new crazy drugs people are doing. Have you heard of semaglutides? Semaglutides? Cosempic, Monjaro

Starting point is 00:21:05 Oh! He's a cutie. He's a cutie. It is so off-putting. What the hell? He just looks like one of the other dudes in Cartman's outfit. Like, still that same sort of round South Park style, but just, it is so peculiar.

Starting point is 00:23:21 Or do you take a toothpaste each? There was a chat in the office between the girlies about this very topic. Because Aaron will always pack a toothpaste. And I know that. So I never do. Who packs the toothpaste when we go away, Vaughan? Fletch. Me.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Fletch does. And you have to go to his room. And sometimes I need to call into a supermarket to buy a new toothbrush. Oh, yeah, same. I'm terrible. Because it's the last thing you use before you leave the house. Yeah, I'll take like a toiletries bag
Starting point is 00:23:46 and be like, I must put that in the toiletries bag because I'm not rocking multiple toothbrushes. When I did though, it was great. You never had to think about it.
Starting point is 00:23:53 No, this is the thing. When you go away, because we go away a bit, you just have in your toiletries bag a going away toothbrush. Is it as good as your at home one?
Starting point is 00:24:02 It's exactly the same one. I think it's often better because it gets used less because we use the same toothbrush. Yeah think it's often better because it gets used less. Yeah. Because we use the same toothbrush. Yeah. Which, by the way, they've got a new one now. It's called a Pro.
Starting point is 00:24:12 I want the Pro. Yeah, you should get the Pro. I just replaced mine. It's a soft. I don't know what the brand is. Electric toothbrushes. No. No?
Starting point is 00:24:20 What's the brand? I know, I know. I'm not electric. I know I am and I need to be. No, no, no, no. I'm not electric. I'm not electric. I look down on those that can't, no, no, no, no. I'm not electric. I'm not electric. I look down on those that can't do it manually.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Electric toothbrushes are for old people and children. You buy them a bluey toothbrush because they won't brush their teeth otherwise. Yes. And then they love brushing their teeth because there's bloody Spiderman's on the electric toothbrush. But otherwise, I simply must know what you're using because I am kind of in the market to try something new. Well, I want to get one of those Sonic ones that are like... Yeah, I've had one. I got gifted one once.
Starting point is 00:24:50 It wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Oh, really? Nah. I'm a plain man who just wants a five-pack. Five-pack soft. I always get talked into a toothbrush with a bit of rubber on it. Yeah, same. Bit of rubber on it.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Bit of tongue backage. Tongue scraper on the back and a bit of rubber on the other back. same. Bit of rubber on it. Bit of tongue, tongue baggage. Tongue scraper on the back and a bit of rubber on the other back. Grin. That's it, isn't it? It's a grin. Oh, no, I don't use that anymore.
Starting point is 00:25:10 What is it, a Colgate grin? No, I've given up caring for the planet because that's an eco-friendly one, right? Wow, yeah, it is. Nah, I've gone full plastic. Have you?
Starting point is 00:25:19 Yeah, I'm sorry. No, they're really good. I really love them. Yeah, they are good. Oh, so it's not Colgate, though? No. No, it's called Grin. I'm currently rocking a Colgate, but I used to do the grins. And, they're really good. I really love them. Yeah, they are good. So it's not Colgate, though? No. No, it's called Grin.
Starting point is 00:25:28 I'm currently rocking a Colgate, but I used to do the Grins. And it's 100% recycled, so I'm actually saving the planet. So I don't have a car, children, and I'm saving the planet with my toothbrush. Boy, oh boy, you love to fly around the world. Yeah. Footprint. Well, don't say that. I just said all the good things I'm doing. In fact, your initials, CF, are carbon footprint.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Here's your carbon footprint. Yeah. Look. He's got a big carbon footprint in the sky. He does. Where can I get one of these? Big shoes. God damn it, now you've got me looking at toothbrushes.
Starting point is 00:25:55 All the supermarkets have them. Okay. I recommend. When travelling, do you take toothpaste from your partner? 64% of people said yes. 36% of people said no. And if you're away for work with Vaughan, he'll knock on your hotel room
Starting point is 00:26:08 door and say, can I borrow your toothpaste? Can I borrow a squirt? I know it's a squirt. Every time. A little squirt. Chloe says, there's a home toothpaste and a travel toothpaste. Duh. Yeah. Yeah. I'm with Chloe. It's the way to go. But what about when your home toothpaste runs out, Chloe,
Starting point is 00:26:24 and you've got to dip into the travel toothpaste, and then you've got to put the travel toothpaste back into there? No, be more organized. Be more organized. Alex says, my teeth are sensitive as F, just like me, and if I use his $2 Colgate instead of my $10 Sensodyne, my teeth will literally break. I use the Sensodyne as well.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Oh. My partner could brush his teeth once a week with sugar and he would be fine. Yeah. I hate those people. Chloe says, sorry, Michelle says, no, I don't borrow my partner's toothpaste, but my husband does. Men. Men. That's what she said.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Men. Ah, men. Why does it do that? If you're scrolling through this, you get sent a whole lot of pictures. And if you're scrolling through and you hover over the arrow for a bit to scroll to the next one, it disappears after a while. And that's taking me back to the chat window. No one cares.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Erica says, just stalling for time to get her back. I'm the one who does all the packing. I mean, there's got to be at least one person listening who's suffered through this. Did you find $20? Because otherwise there's no good end to that story. I'm the one that does all the packing I mean there's got to be at least one person listening Did you find $20? Because otherwise there's no good into that story I'm the one that does all the packing So we share all the body, face, mouth cleaning products Says Erica It is weird when you're in a shop shop
Starting point is 00:27:34 If you went away on a holiday for two weeks with Aaron Would you just pack one toothpaste for both of you? Yes Yeah Yeah, one fresh Fresh tube One fresh tube. One fresh tube. Yeah. Out of its cardboard box. Out of
Starting point is 00:27:50 its cardboard box. We don't have space for that. Out of its cardboard box. We don't have the weight limit on our suitcase for that one gram of cardboard. I also think with the seal on the tube under the lid, the cardboard box is redundant. Yeah. It is. We could do without because literally you take it out of the box it's the same is redundant. Yeah, it is. The cardboard box is redundant. We could do without,
Starting point is 00:28:05 because literally you take it out of the box, it's the same marketing on the front of the tube. Exactly. I think we'd buy the same toothpaste when we're thinking about this big red box. Yeah. Big red box. Chris says,
Starting point is 00:28:15 he is bloody lucky that I packed toothpaste or he'd have no toothpaste. Yeah. And then he'd have no teeth. Bronte. I haven't heard from Bronte for a while. I remember it because that's a hell of a strong name. I love it.
Starting point is 00:28:27 The Bronte sisters. The Bronte sisters. Yes, of course. They're one of the authors. We have our own. He likes the natural one, but I need that fluoride for my bad English teeth, baby. Zoe, because, no, I won't use his because I'm allergic to all different kinds of toothpaste. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:28:43 What happens if, she's allergic to mint, apparently. Mint. Oh. Good luck to you. To use the little candy-flavoured ones, you know, like the kids' one. I can taste it right now, the candy one. What about the orange that the dentist used to use?
Starting point is 00:28:56 Oh, yuck. I love that. No. Yeah, yum. I had that the other day when I went to the hygienist. Yeah. They use the orange stuff. I'm like, well, that should be available for general purchase.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Yeah, it's good stuff. Give it a grit. Yeah. Give it a grit to the hygienist. Yeah. They use the orange stuff. I'm like, well, that should be available for general purchase. Yeah, it's good stuff. Give it a grit. Yeah. Give it a grit to it. It's good stuff. What a grit. That's a little poll. Play.
Starting point is 00:29:13 ZM's, Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Driving to work this morning. Casual. I went a little bit faster in the Jimny today. I've decided to really make it work for it. I put it on 100
Starting point is 00:29:22 and I put it on cruise control. And it screams for it. I put it on 100 and put it on cruise control. And it screams. Yeah. It should not be at 3,000 revs at 100 kilometres an hour. No. But it is. It's screaming for life. You decided to buy this tiny little Jeep wannabe.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Did I show you the Vietnamese built electric little four-wheel drive I want to buy? No. It's called a VF3. Do yourself a favour and look it up. It looks the most, it's ugly and it's ridiculous, but it's fully electric. Oh, no. No, you simply cannot, sir. Oh, that is a dicky little car. Might be faster than yours, though.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Oh, no, no, it is. That looks really, it's fun, actually. What colour are we going? Yellow, pink, red? Yeah, grey. The black looks really... I'm a black car guy, but the VF3 looks like a tonne of fun. Yeah, at least no-one would steal that. No, they'd just pick it up and put it in their bag
Starting point is 00:30:15 and take it away with them. Yes. Looks like fun. Oh, fun. I've got to get me an ambassador to ship with that. Oh, they do hot pink. With a well-known Vietnamese garment. Oh, my God. That seems like that would be a low point. If they're listening, I'm open to it. ambassadorship with a well-known Vietnamese garment factory.
Starting point is 00:30:26 That seems like that would be a low point. If they're listening, I'm open to it. Hit me up with some hashtags. Sponsored. Open to it. So the chimneys scream and I get off the motorway and I'm at traffic lights and I hear fire sirens. I don't immediately know they're fire sirens
Starting point is 00:30:40 because I can't tell the difference between emergency sirens. I can. I know a fire truck and an ambulance and a... Fire is more like long, eh? It's more... Is that a whale? I couldn't put my... Wait, so you're in the car.
Starting point is 00:31:03 I couldn't get my brain to function to make the noise. No, they're not wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo. I thought they were like, ooo. Because I think living in the city, I see so many go past. What's the police? Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo. No, there's ambulance. No, that's a little Peugeot in a European chase film.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo. No, that's a little Peugeot in a European chase film. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like... It's not the 70s. Yeah. Anyway. I don't know. You heard the sirens. You didn't know who it was.
Starting point is 00:31:35 I didn't know who it was, but I looked and I couldn't see the lights and then I went into the intersection and all of a sudden I just see this fire engine coming at me. It's going to T-bone me. Were there any hot fires? I couldn't see. I was panicky because I was T-boned and I was halfway through the intersection, so I like floored it in the chimney and it screamed again.
Starting point is 00:31:52 It's like, no, don't get in. I'm tired. And I pulled over to the side and it went down the middle and people were like parting their ways for it. And then everyone got back in the lane. Bit of a, bit of a, everybody's like,
Starting point is 00:32:09 you don't talk to other motorists but you get the feeling everybody's like, where are they off to? Yeah, yeah, yeah. A lot of, and you can see there's a couple of cars that are always like,
Starting point is 00:32:15 if I get in right behind that fire engine, I'm going to skip all this traffic. Oh, I know, I love doing that. I love doing that. Riding their little, yeah, yeah,
Starting point is 00:32:21 getting in there. So then going down there, the traffic came in, a few more cars pulled on. Another fire engine starts its way, but we're in a bit more of a packed space now. Okay. And so I kind of pull over, and this other car,
Starting point is 00:32:34 like a small Toyota Yaris or like a small Toyota just stops in the middle of the road. Oh. I'm like, it's a panic stop. It's a panic stop. Go left, go left. So it's in the middle lane Yeah Everybody else is pulled over
Starting point is 00:32:48 In the middle lane It's in the middle lane So everybody's pulled to the side lanes Because the middle lane's the best lane for the Yeah yeah yeah Fire engine to go down The fire engine's coming This person's panicking
Starting point is 00:32:57 And the fire engine lets out The horns on the fire engine Oh my god they're amazing God that was good It's not Shall I try with my good sound effects? It's not right up behind the car yet, but it's coming. So I was...
Starting point is 00:33:20 This car, who's just had this panic stop in the middle of the road, literally, I'm imagining, turns the wheel as far as they can to the left, like panic floors it, immediately goes sideways, like not skidding, but that's how sharp they've turned. They turn 90 degrees and panic accelerate up over the kerb, boof, into a road sign. Oh, Jesus. That's full panic.
Starting point is 00:33:43 They panic start and they do a full 90 degree panic ker road sign. Oh, Jesus. That's full panic. They just absolutely panic stop and then a full 90 degree panic curb sign. It's that horn that they use. It goes right through you. It does. But just shuffle off to the side. They've really... Oh, my God, Rhys.
Starting point is 00:34:02 That's the sound my chimney was making after I floored it the first time. I reckon emergency services would see some white, because people would panic. Oh, yeah, totally. They don't see the lights in the rear vision or hear the sirens, and then all of a sudden they're just like, ah! And they just move.
Starting point is 00:34:15 People do, I reckon, yeah, panic, see it, and just pull straight into another car. Oh, all the time. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Totally don't check, eh? Yeah, just getting out of the way. Well, those people that don't realise there's anything behind them, I don't, you know, yeah, yeah. Totally don't check. Yeah, just getting out of the way. All those people that don't realise there's anything behind them. I don't, you know, like who doesn't see the lights in the rear vision?
Starting point is 00:34:30 You'll be driving along and a cop will be behind someone and you're like, oh, no, it's going to be me. And then they're like, no, they go past you and then they get in behind the person they want to pull over. Yes. And the person's just like, do-do-do-do. And I'm like, I'm always like, get over. And the lights are like, and they're like, what?
Starting point is 00:34:44 What? And they're like, do-do-do- like, what? A-do-do-do. A-do-do-do-do-do. How brilliantly unaware of these people. Probably the exact reason they're getting pulled over. Yeah, probably. But I do feel sorry for the person that will have to make an insurance claim
Starting point is 00:34:57 of why they've stoved in the front of their car. The sign went like backwards a little bit, but they didn't like snap off or anything. Oh, insurance would have that so much, right? Yeah, but they'll probably need a new bumper. God, drama. Do we know where the fire was? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:35:10 There was another one as well. So there was three fire engines in total. Isn't there a live website that they update? Oh, there might be. Maybe. Have a look. Let's just touch base on these siren sounds because we've actually got some clarification here
Starting point is 00:35:30 with some audio clips, I believe. Yeah, I've Googled it. There's siren chasers. People that, like, love recording sirens. I wonder if they ever just walk into a fireplace and are just like, can I just hold a microphone so this can get a top quality recording? Cool hobby. Worst hobbies, I guess.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Fire. Oh, I accidentally muted it. God, I'm good at my job, eh? So good at the job. Police. No. Is that fire? That's fire. That's exactly the sound I was doing before. That is the
Starting point is 00:36:01 that is a truck from the Thorndon Fire Department responding to an emergency. Wellington in New Zealand in February 2018. People upload these videos. Yeah. Wild. Okay, give us another one. Police. Police. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yes. Yes. I'd really love a if they've got one. So what's left? Was that a... Ambulance. Oh no, that was just a change of recording. So someone's driving along now thinking they're getting pulled over, by the way.
Starting point is 00:36:33 I have been a proponent, and you know this, on the radio, I've been a big proponent of just in the background of songs, every now and then, turning up the sound effects fader and playing a siren. I just think it would be great. And we never reference it. We just do it every now and then for our own shits and geeks. That's psychological torture. And if you're listening to the show now.
Starting point is 00:36:53 There are songs that have sirens in them and they get me every time. I'm driving along. Freak you right out. You didn't do the other one. What's the other one? Ambo. Ambulance. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:37:03 I've got it. Yeah, it's faster, isn't it? Yeah. I nailed that. Do they have an eh-eh as well? I feel like they've got an eh-eh. I don't know. I think everybody's got an eh-eh. Yeah, good stuff. Get the hell out of the way. Thanks for that, Vaughn.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Thank you for clarifying. My pleasure. Turn that right off, actually. Do you know we used to do that when you were saying, I'm just like to try to confuse someone by playing a siren in the background and not referencing it. We used to do that in high school. And so it was the air con. Now that's torture.
Starting point is 00:37:35 And so the teacher would be like. Yeah, you pass the hammer around the room so that you can have a breath. God, imagine going to school with air con. Private schools, eh? Wow. The heat pumps in each room, darling. Wow. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:37:48 We had radiator heaters. Right. And sometimes you'd lean against them, forgetting they were there, and they'd burn your tender little legs. Your tender. Good golly. My tender, delicious, tender little teenage legs. Burn it, burn it.
Starting point is 00:38:01 You'd lean against them in a sweatshirt, and you wouldn't feel the heat until it was too late And then the heat was stuck to you Because the sweatshirt was made of a cheap polyester Oh no, ours were wool, darling Barbara Lee Barbara Lee Barbara Lee only uses the finest wool
Starting point is 00:38:16 For Queen Margaret College, darling I think ours were made by a child Whose last name was Lee as well But it was spelled L-I Yeah Probably Anyway, let's talk about this new reality TV show. It's coming to Hulu.
Starting point is 00:38:29 It is called- That's Disney Plus here. Yeah. Sweet. It's called- Sweet? Sweet. Sweet, man.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Sure. It's called Virgin Island. The premise is a number. Virgin Island will thrust a number of stunningly attractive and confident singles together. As the cast finds heartfelt connections and explores their varying reasons for waiting, there will be plenty of unexpected twists,
Starting point is 00:38:58 including new arrivals and departures, all culminating in a dramatic finale where burgeoning relationships are put to the test. Now, all of these... Oh, wait, it's not happening in the British Virgin Islands. No. They are virgins. They are all virgins on an island.
Starting point is 00:39:12 Virgins on an island. Because there are a lot of news stories recently about people being celibate and waiting. Waiting. And maybe not necessarily virgins. Yeah, they might not be virgins, but they're just like, I'm just, it's not a priority for me.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Yeah, choosing. Yeah, and they may have already lost their virginity like years before or something, but now lots of Gen Zs, millennials, choosing a life of celibacy rather than sort of playing around. I'm good for you guys. Are they hot?
Starting point is 00:39:44 So good for you guys. Well hot? so good for you guys well apparently on this Virgin Island the reality show because apparently this has been like pitched for years and everyone was like
Starting point is 00:39:51 that's so problematic and then just the production company was like we're doing it apparently all these people are like
Starting point is 00:39:58 hot hot hot like Love Island you know like super yep tanned and blonde and pumped up. But they have not done the deed. I've got more sirens from around the world.

Starting point is 00:41:07 Do you have to pay up $100? No, I don't. Oh, we owe you $500. $500, $100. That's not how betting works. In this studio, this is how the bets work. No. So we all have to cough up.

Starting point is 00:43:08 Oh, someone just texted Pakistan. Too late. Too late. Not how it works. Not how it works. You turd. Play Zed-N's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:43:17 It's the final rankings. We do this every Friday. We rank things. And today we're doing salad dressings. Yeah. I've been hankering for some salads. Last week when I was in Wellington, I reckon I didn't eat a vegetable. And I felt so bad.
Starting point is 00:43:32 You know when you're just in the slog of life? No, I quite like it. And then you get to the end of the week, you're like, I need some crunch. I don't feel right. What's wrong with me? I've not eaten a vegetable or a fruit for a few days. Yes. And so I've been like ho vegetable or a fruit for a few days. Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:48 And so I've been like hooting in the salads this week. Loving it. What would you normally put on a salad then? I'd go balsamic. Yes. Like a, I'll make my own. Do the balsamic glaze. Dirty balsamic. Oh, I love a balsamic glaze.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Is that sweeter? Is that sweeter? Yeah, like condensed. You can make your own balsamic glaze with two cups of balsamic vinegar and half a cup of brown sugar. Nah, just buy it in a bottle. Well, yeah, you can also buy it. We buy the Delmaine balsamic. We buy the Delmaine as well.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Oh, darling. But I'll just put a bit of olive oil and then a bit of the glaze. She's done. Or I'll make one with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, mustard. Or I'll do a Kewpie mayo sometimes. This guy's such a creamy little... He's a creamy little bitch. He's a creamy little bitch.
Starting point is 00:44:28 You're a creamy little bitch. CLB. You're a CLB. You're a CLB. And I've wanted to say it for years now, and it's so good to get it off my chest. I'll do that, or I'll do like a Chipotle mayo. See, he's a creamy little bee.
Starting point is 00:44:40 He's a creamy little bee. Yeah, what's wrong with that? That's a treat. I had a vinaigrette. I'm more of a vinegar-based lady. I like a tang. That's tangy for me. My mum a creamy little B. Yeah. What's wrong with that? That's a treat. I had a vinaigrette. I'm more of a vinegar based lady. Yeah, I like a tang. I like a tang. That's tangy for me.
Starting point is 00:44:47 My mum used to make a homemade mayonnaise. And that was all we had. My mum does condensed milk? Yep, condensed milk was in it. She bought a container with the recipe on the lid. Yep. And so she'd just have the lid and put it all in the container and then put it on and just shake the hell out of it.
Starting point is 00:45:03 And it was the family mayonnaise. All we ever had growing up was that homemade mayonnaise. Same. And so when I got into a world of like, what's that light Italian-y sort of herby, you buy it and put that on and I was just like, it's so light. It's so light.
Starting point is 00:45:18 Where's the cream? Where's the cream? And that was an hour coming, a creamy little bitch. Now you've grown out of bed. I became a balsamic big man. Because Paul Newman's salad dressing sort of changed the world, right? And we could get like vinaigrettes and Caesars and balsamic vinaigrettes and your Thousand Islands.
Starting point is 00:45:36 What is Thousand Island dressing? Yuck. Mayonnaise. No, I love Thousand Island dressing. See, here's a creamy little bit. But as a treat. You tried to align with me as if, here's a creamy little bee. But as a treat. You tried to align with me as if you weren't a sea little bee. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:48 You're a sea little bee. Along with this creamy little bee. Yeah. I've got a couple of sea little bees here. I'm from a creamy people. You can't come and hear me say it. My ancestors are people who enjoy creamy dressings. And you say creamy dressings.
Starting point is 00:46:02 I love a two-packier through and through. No spice, just cream. Because the only creamy dressing I'll have is Caesar. And I like to make it. Anchovies, Parmesan. Yeah, it's a... I don't like a Caesar salad. I'm anti-crouton.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Yeah, the crouton. Anything with croutons becomes ruined. I'll have a Caesar, but then a Caesar's just bloody lettuce and an egg and it's all about the dressing. No, it's bacon, lettuce, egg, ruined, becomes ruined. I have a Caesar, but then a Caesar's just bloody lettuce and an egg, and it's all about the dressing. No, it's bacon, lettuce, egg, cheese, parmesan. Too much lettuce. And sometimes a chicken.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Okay, so for the dressings, what are we going for final rankings? I'm going to go balsamic vinaigrette, number one, of some kind. Be it a glaze or a vinaigrette, I'm going balsamic. Then I like a Japanese Mayo? No, like a sesame Yeah. Japanese sesame dressing. You know when you go to a donburi and you've got
Starting point is 00:46:53 like 10 sauces to choose from? Yes. Yeah, that's where it's at. Umami. Umami, sesame, kind of nutty from the seeds. Then I will partake, my Pakiha part will partake in the creamy little bees with a Caesar. Okay. Balsamic, Japanese sesame, Caesar.
Starting point is 00:47:13 Interesting, during the comedy fest sponsored by a mayonnaise, she's not chosen to alone herself. Well, mayonnaise is in my Caesar dressing that I make. Oh, you use best foods mayonnaise as the base for the Caesar. Of course. Fantastic. Well, I'm going to go Thousand Island.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Yep. Yuck! What is it? It's mayonnaise, it's chopped up onion, it's ketchup, it's pickle relish, it's lemon juice,
Starting point is 00:47:38 it's paprika. That's burger sauce, my dude. Yeah, I know! That's burger sauce. I know about that. Yeah. On a salad.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Yeah. Yum. Yum. Okay. Creamy't know. That's burger sauce. I didn't know about that. On a salad. Yeah. Yum. Yum. Okay. Creamy little bees. Burger sauce is the sauce of all sauces in our house. We go through burger sauce like when I was a kid, that's how we went through tomato sauce.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Yeah. Burger sauce goes on everything with my kids. Yeah. They are creamy little bees. You wouldn't put sweet chilli sauce on a salad? Nah. Why not? I wouldn't put sweet chilli sauce on much.
Starting point is 00:48:04 No, neither. Because it doesn't give me what I want. It's not hot enough to give me the heat. It's too sweet. It's too sweet to be like a glazy sort of a light. It's too sweet. Oh my god, someone coming on here saying Fletcher's 100% correct. Sweet chilli's where it's at. Yeah, thank you. I would go sweet chilli, then I'd go
Starting point is 00:48:19 a mayo. Creamy. Just a straight mayo. And then I'd go, well like a cupi. Yeah, a cupi mayo. Ory. Just a straight mayo. And then I'd go, well, like a Kewpie. Yeah, a Kewpie mayo. Or, you know, that Cully's does that chipotle mayo.
Starting point is 00:48:30 That is legit. That is for chips. That's for like chips and burgers. That's not for salad. It's for nachos. It's sauce. It's sauce, not dressing.
Starting point is 00:48:39 It's everything. You're putting non-salad dressings on salad. You are talking about sauces. There are no rules. How are you in the shape you're in when you consider this amazing creamy chipotle sauce, which is for a burger or a chip?
Starting point is 00:48:56 Which is for a burger or a chip in moderation, you know? Oh, damn, you're so good. Oh, my gosh. Okay, well, that's my final rankings. You creamy little bee. You're a creamy little bee. Yeah, I am a creamy little bee and I don't mind admitting it.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Ah. Okay, so what's our final, final rankings then? Well, it's got to be like mayo. It was in everybody's Caesar. I can't believe. Mayo. We're rating salad dressing
Starting point is 00:49:16 and we've landed on that. And sweet chilli number three. That mayonnaise is at the core of everything that we love. It's at the core of all the dressings. Of course it is. Oh my gosh. Of course it is. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Of course it is. That was a great final ranking. That was terrible. Creamy little bees. Yeah. Shout out to the Chipotle mayo, too. Oh, yeah. It's good stuff.
Starting point is 00:49:33 Yeah, the bees burgers. Just shout out to Cully's across the board. They do good sauce. Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey. Play ZM. I was privy to two very funny Instagram reels in a row. And the first one was a mother was slaving over the stove making a beautiful creamy Tuscan chicken. Now I know that my creamy little B is in front of me.
Starting point is 00:50:00 I don't like creamy chicken. That creamy Tuscan chicken. You know the ones with cherry tomatoes and like a creamy sauce. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, you're a carbonara man. I'm a tomato-based chicken guy. Yeah, yeah, right. Right.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Surprise you not to put mayonnaise on top of your chicken to be honest. Boiled chicken breast with mayonnaise on top. Yeah. We're in a cutting phase.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Poach it in the mayonnaise, hot mayonnaise. You wouldn't have mayonnaise if you were cutting. No, you wouldn't. No mayonnaise. Well, keto's good unless you're doing a keto phase. Poach it in the hot mayonnaise. You wouldn't have mayonnaise if you were cutting. No, you wouldn't. No mayonnaise. Well, keto is good, unless you're doing a keto cut, because that's just fat, baby.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Fat. Beautiful fat. Anyway, so she's making this Tuscan creamy chicken, and she shows the bottle, and the daughter is like, oh, my God, my mum has been, like, slow cooking this creamy Tuscan chicken for quite a while now, and the mother's, like, face is like, don't F with me
Starting point is 00:50:46 right now. And she picks up the bottle of olive oil that she's used throughout the cooking process and it says like, olive oil da da da, it's in a green bottle with olives and da da da da da but if you look carefully it says, olive oil shampoo.
Starting point is 00:51:02 So this whole time she has been cooking and the mother's like, I don't want to talk about it! And then the daughter's like, you know what, you've tried so hard and she tries it and it's like bubbly and foaming and it's soap. She's like, that straight up is soap. Chicken soap. So that really
Starting point is 00:51:18 made me laugh. Then I'm continuing on my real run and there's this mother who comes out. You know how mums love getting shit printed on a canvas. Yes! She comes out fresh canvas from the printer. She's like, who would do this? And the mother has submitted
Starting point is 00:51:34 for the photo a screenshot and so the screenshot has the iPhone battery and time and all the thumbnails from like if she went on the photos app and just screenshot it. This isn't even a Burma thing.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Someone I went to school with updated their profile picture the other day. It was a screenshot. And it was a screenshot. Oh my God, crazy. It was just like a little circle.
Starting point is 00:51:56 Yeah. I was like, I can see someone in the corner and it looked weird and I clicked on it and it had the time, how much battery they had, how much reception
Starting point is 00:52:02 and Wi-Fi they were getting at that time when they screencapped it. Down the bottom, because they were on a Samsung, it had that circle in the middle. It's more embarrassing. And a narrow either side. I was just like, you're my age.
Starting point is 00:52:13 You should be cropping these. Or you should not be uploading a screenshot. First of all, terrible quality. Yeah, totally. Oh, I was embarrassed for them. Anyway, these two parental embarrassing, it gives big boomer. I don't think they were boomers, but it gives boomer.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Sparked inside me the need for more stories like this. So we want to hear from you. Like what is that embarrassing, I was going to say cock up. What's the other word for like screw up, boomer move from your parents
Starting point is 00:52:39 where they've just made like such a dumb mistake. Even not even parents, what about like older siblings or just, yeah, or maybe you want to admit to making a huge mistake like this. Embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Like an error beyond your years. Now someone just told me that actually watching reels is a Burma thing. No, it's a millennial thing. It's a millennial thing, thank you. Excuse me, it's a millennial thing. TikTok is too overwhelming, there's too many icons on the sides, I can't navigate it. We prefer a refined reel, don't we?
Starting point is 00:53:07 If it was good enough to get on reels from TikTok, we're looking at only the quality stuff. Yes, exactly. Okay, right. Instagram reels is like the after sieve, right? We've sieved the content. We've sieved the nonsense. We're getting the purity.
Starting point is 00:53:18 We've sieved the Jojo Siwa dance moves. Yeah. Oh my God, someone, y'all are so reels. This was on TikTok like a month ago. Oh, I'm still saying y'all. Shut up. I love this. I love this.
Starting point is 00:53:29 Y'all. I love this. Okay, 0800-DANCE-IT-M. Maybe you've done a boomer move like Hayley. Yeah. What is that embarrassing? Oh, no. Okay, I'll get one started for us.
Starting point is 00:53:44 My parents and I were going to Fleetwood Mac and my mum printed the tickets, but she accidentally printed them on A3 paper. Oh, no. And the security's like, can we see your ticket? And they're like... Unfolds it. She probably unfolds it three times
Starting point is 00:53:59 because she folded it down to A5. And then there's like five sheets of paper. And then she's like, There's one for everybody. She didn't reprint them. We just had to bring the A3 tickets to the concert. I love that. That's what Sade was asking yesterday. She's got everybody's tickets for your show tonight when we go.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And she's like, do I print these off? No. Because she's got everybody's tickets on her phone as separate PDFs. Otherwise she's going to have to stand there and be like, print that person. I was like, print. She's like, I don't want to be the, I don't want to be the, I was like, we're going out for dinner beforehand.
Starting point is 00:54:30 Print them off, give everybody their ticket, and then you're done with responsibility. Okay, 0800-DANCE-IT, and we want to take more of your calls. You can text through as well. Oh my God. 9666. There's some goodies already.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Okay, we'll get to those next. We want to know the boomer move that's been in your life recently, be it yourself or your parents. I'm still howling at the A3 ticket print. I cannot handle it. Joe, what happened? I was just surprised. Honeymoon trip.
Starting point is 00:54:59 We'll just pop you there. We're just getting some phone issues there. Kayleigh, let's go to you. Kayleigh, what did your mum do? She asked, oh, I asked her if she could get me a box of purple pounds from the shop. And she went, she asked me what flavour. And I don't know what the flavours are. So I just sent like an eggplant emoji as a joke. Like purple.
Starting point is 00:55:21 That's the purple flavour. Yeah. And then she went to About six liquor stores Asking for eggplant Pals And like Fighting
Starting point is 00:55:29 With the staff She fought with the staff Because the staff were like No there's no eggplant pals And she's like My daughter wouldn't Lie to me Yeah pretty much
Starting point is 00:55:38 And like So she went around All the ones around Like Milford So And Then She was quite confused so she went home
Starting point is 00:55:45 and she bought an egg part and she made me a smoothie with vodka and egg parts. F off. Oh my God. You're infusible. Oh my God. Your mother is a saint.
Starting point is 00:55:59 The salt of the earth. I would go to, if my kids asked me to get something, I'd go to one shop and if it wasn't there, I'd tell them it doesn't exist. Do you know what? I don't know if we've given our caller of the week out yet but one shop and if it wasn't there I'd tell them it doesn't exist do you know what
Starting point is 00:56:05 I don't know if we've given our caller of the week out yet but we should give you caller of the week so you can take my mom take her out for a coffee a nice coffee yeah to that cafe
Starting point is 00:56:12 an eggplant flavoured coffee I believe they make them in a cafe we'll give you a $50 McCafe voucher Kayleigh did you taste the eggplant vodka smoothie
Starting point is 00:56:21 I didn't have it but my boyfriend drank it. What do you think? It was awful. Yeah. What a good boyfriend. Good boyfriend, good mum. Taking one for the team there.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Wait there, Kayleigh. Jordan, this is something you will admit to. Yes. I was trying to be organised, popped a, what I thought was a duck, into the slow cooker for 10 hours. Oh, yum. You were doing a ragu. Yeah, yeah, duck ragu.
Starting point is 00:56:50 Oh, yum. Came home from work 10 hours later and took quite a funky smell and opened up the slow cooker. Turned out it was a, I slow cooked a fish for 10 hours. Jesus. I'm imagining there's not a lot left of a fish after 10 hours. I love when you open the door and you've been slow cooking meat. It's the best part.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Opening the door to that. It's a 10-hour fish. A 10-hour fish. Jordan, thank you. Keep your texts coming in. Your calls, we've got so many. We'll get to those next. These are so good.
Starting point is 00:57:23 We're talking about so good embarrassing sometimes it's your parents sometimes it's you yeah you make a move beyond your years embarrassingly
Starting point is 00:57:31 boomer-esque moves my boomer parents at an Asian fusion restaurant were looking for someone to clear the table they stopped a girl by like putting their arm
Starting point is 00:57:40 in front of her and then grabbing her arm and being like can we get the table cleared she was just Asian she's Asian she was in Blanche too. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:57:47 No, no, no. You just never. You just never. Yeah, this is like wearing a red shirt to the warehouse. You don't do it. You don't do it. You don't do it because you're going to get started by all the old ladies who have a question. My mother tried to send me a photo. Now instead of doing
Starting point is 00:58:03 the old classic send a photo, she screenshot the photo she wanted to send. I don't know how they do this. This is harder. This is an extra step. And sent me the photo. So then I got the notification that the photo, I clicked on the photo and it pulled up the whole screen,
Starting point is 00:58:17 which included the time she took the screenshot, how much reception she had. All the thumbnails on the bottom. One of the thumbnails at the bottom was a picture of a vagina. Piss off. What's mum doing taking pictures? Maybe she was doing
Starting point is 00:58:30 a phone consult with the doctor. Yeah, well sometimes you feel a little something and you need to see what that is. You can't just bend down. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:58:38 So you have to squat over the camera and do a self timer. Is that what we're doing? Yeah, that's what we're doing. Am I allowed to do the wagging one? It does contain a word that
Starting point is 00:58:45 some people might not love. I think it's fine. My friend's mum always got the word wagging as I'm like wagging school confused with the word wanking. So you're wagging. My friend and I got caught wagging once and she sat us down and blasted us about yes, yeah. Waking off school.
Starting point is 00:59:02 So much. To which of course we burst into laughter and couldn't control ourselves and she just started screaming at us, wanking is not funny. It is when you're yelling at teenagers. Yes. My mum put some broken glass in the incinerator because that's what she thought you did. And I stood there and we listened to the traumatising sound
Starting point is 00:59:22 of the incinerator screaming for its own life. And she saved face by matter-of-factly telling me it was a good idea because it would sharpen the blades. Oh, no. That's not how it works. I said to mum, I was getting my fingerprints done for my visa and she said, oh, did they use invisible ink? Because I didn't have any ink on my fingers.
Starting point is 00:59:39 I said, no, you put them on a screen and they take it. And she was like, did the ink get on the screen? She just didn't get it. She just didn't get it. She just didn't get it. This one must be a classic. My mum thinks that the text abbreviation lol means lots of love. Some hits include, your dad broke his collarbone in a bike accident lol.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Or, I'm worried about your brother lol. That's not what it means mum. My boomer workmate accidentally posted a picture of her boobies to her Snapchat story. Her kids are stoked. Oh! Oh my God, took my dad out. Took my dad out to our favourite Indian restaurant. He used the bottle of water off the table to rinse his hands over the carpet.
Starting point is 01:00:18 What are you doing? You're being raised by an animal. My mum made a post about her garden on social media. And obviously when she wanted to add music, she just searched for the word garden. Right. Didn't listen to the song, just clicked the top one and put it on it.
Starting point is 01:00:33 And it turned out it was a song about putting dead bodies in the garden. Jesus. It was like some intense heavy metal song about burying the bodies in the garden. Oh my God. For years, my mum wouldn't go, when she was at the supermarket,
Starting point is 01:00:48 wouldn't go through the confectionery free aisle because she had a bag of lollies. She's like, no, they won't scan lollies in that aisle. Whereas it's just they don't have lollies in that aisle. We got an email from our mum telling us, I'm so sorry we have to put the family cat down, lol. Lots of love. Lots of love.
Starting point is 01:01:04 This is the best. We did a gender reveal, and the gender reveal was going to be cupcakes. Everybody was going to bite into the cupcake at the same time. My father-in-law walks into the lounge with half a cupcake, turns around and said, I got strawberry. What did you guys get? No! You ruined it.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Congratulations on your baby girl, though. Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and though. Yeah. Well guys, we've got a return guest in studio and a new one because Maths New Zealand is starting very soon and John, you're back in studio, John Aitken. Yes, I'm so excited. It's about
Starting point is 01:01:42 to hit Sunday night. So excited to have you. And Jo Robertson, you're in as well. You're the new expert. She's the more glamorous one. More glamorous indeed. Let's just say it. Let's put it out there.
Starting point is 01:01:54 Yeah, you're looking absolutely rough, John. And I've got to tell you, Jo, looking incredible. Step it up. She's a straight talker, isn't she? She loves it. John loves the vest. I do love a knit. She nigs men.
Starting point is 01:02:04 She nigs men because she knows we love it. Is that what that's all about? Yeah. Shut up. She does it She loves it John loves a vest I do love a neg She negs men She negs men Is that what that's all about? Yeah Shut up She does it well though Doesn't she? See she almost did it to me again You're a silly fool
Starting point is 01:02:11 Which is bordering on bullying If you do it too much It is Sunday night 7pm TV3 You're going up against New Zealand television Behemoth Country Calendar Oh
Starting point is 01:02:19 Oh look That's very highbrow Isn't it? Country Calendar When it comes to ratings Having worked in TV before, we almost ignore country calendar because it's its own thing.
Starting point is 01:02:30 So, like, we, I mean, I drink up Maths Australia. Thirsty. I'm thirsty for it. I mean, and I've been following the couples that are still together and those that have split, sadly. And it's been a while since we've had a New Zealand one.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Yeah, five years. Five years. I'm trying to remember who the last... Because our hero story is Brett and Angel. Yes. And they were on the first one, I think. And then they are still together and they've got a baby. And it's like the most beautiful thing. And they're making a guest appearance.
Starting point is 01:03:04 Oh, great. We bring them back. Yeah, and they've got a baby and it's like the most beautiful thing. And they're making a guest appearance. Oh, great. We bring them back. And they are so great. So tell us what we can expect because it's all in the can, right? It's all been filmed. So you know everything and we have to wait. That's right. I mean, there's a lot to love about this, but it is very different. It's fresh. It's new.
Starting point is 01:03:20 It's nothing like the one that was five years ago. Yes. So we're very excited about showing New Zealand this new look. And one of the things that's very different is that they get married on a tropical island. So the whole setting is large. It's beautiful. It's breathtaking. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:37 Oh, yeah. We were thinking of you. Really? Oh, of course. Maybe you could go next time and be the celebrant. Yes, I am a celebrant no you didn't renew your paperwork no I have to do it anyway for my friends
Starting point is 01:03:48 so this is perfect we'll sign the contract because I feel like with the Australian one what works so well is I always feel Australia is a little bit closer to America in that they love to bring the drama and sometimes in New Zealand like when we've done The Bachelor and Maths in the past we're a bit more
Starting point is 01:04:03 low key, a bit more reserved. Yeah, a little bit more reserved. Do you think that's the case with these new couples? Yeah, that is the case. So they, I mean, drama is still going to unfold. But we're a bit real. So you can't help it with love and breakups and attachment to have some drama and some fire. You'll definitely
Starting point is 01:04:20 see that. Yeah. But we are generally a little bit more chill. And I would say quite kind. Yes. So there's a lot of respect amidst the conflict. There's quite a respectful cast. Do you think that there will be red wine thrown across the table
Starting point is 01:04:35 at the dinner parties? Maybe a little bit from me towards Jo. Yeah, right, right. On the couch. Exactly. Look, I think heart and humour is what you're going to see in this series, which is great. Well, that's New Zealand, isn't it? Exactly.
Starting point is 01:04:51 They're very authentic. They, as a group, kind of really bond and they want each couple to get over the line, which is very different from the Australian version where they're at each other's throats and they're combative. Very much so. So there is drama. There are universal relationship problems
Starting point is 01:05:07 that we have to really haul them over the coals about. Yeah. So there is a lot. Dishwasher stacking and stuff. That's a real thing about dishwasher stacking. So does my husband. There's a way to do it. No, there's not.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Get them in and wash them. Do you dishwasher pots? I'm going to be honest and say, I just jam as much as I can. Oh, yeah. Do you pre-rinse before you put in? I'm going to 100% pre-rinse it. Oh, yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:05:31 You're going to pre-rinse. I don't go raw dog. And my wife just raw dog everything they can into this garbage pile of cutlery. Raw dog is an interesting term. No pre-rinse. Just shoving it in. Love that. Joe, is that how you approach relationships?
Starting point is 01:05:48 No, no, no. My relationship is as much like my dishwasher stacking. Thoughtful, pre-rinsed. Very considerate. Stacks, no pots and no sharp knives. Guys, we... And tablet, not powder. We announced maybe a couple of weeks ago the cast
Starting point is 01:06:03 and we were diving into them we got a little picture and one of the looks that really caught my eye as a woman that loves a ginormous man with a beard
Starting point is 01:06:11 is Michael who you guys will remember straightens his beard yes where are we at with the straightening of the beard how do we feel about that
Starting point is 01:06:21 it was a lot yes he's got a very niche look it's really niche. Hot comb takes out a bit of, as a man with a beard, sideways puffiness, but never a straight. I don't think you can say puffiness
Starting point is 01:06:34 anymore. Oh, I do apologise. I tell you what, they're ganging up on you today. I'm really, I'm really feeling negged. I'm feeling negged. They know I love it. It's my love language. So, do you think there like enough drama in this season? Because you know that's the thing with New Zealand, like that where is it too chill
Starting point is 01:06:51 or do you think that there's like plenty of drama for us? I think there's enough. If you see the teasers, the trailers, they have a lot of tears in them. And there's a lot of deep, hard conversations that we have in the commitment ceremonies. So people will still enjoy it. Because this is what we talked about with you last time, John.
Starting point is 01:07:09 Like over the years, especially the Australian one, it's kind of those couch sessions have become really intense and really like calling people out on their BS and their bad behaviour. And I hope we get to see that in the New Zealand version as well. We absolutely do. And I think also one of the great things about the New Zealand version, because it's sort of like an appetizer.
Starting point is 01:07:28 It's a much smaller version than the Aussie one. So when you're in that room in the commitment ceremony, it's very intimate. So when you're going hard at a couple and calling out bad behavior, you kind of feel like everyone is right on your shoulder. Yeah, yeah. And it becomes, you know, it's very compelling to watch it. Yeah. Yes, and Jo
Starting point is 01:07:47 certainly goes hard at some of the people, which is fantastic. Interestingly, I think they brought me on to be more nurturing as opposed to you, and then I said, you've got the wrong person. You've actually, yeah, you've really not nailed that. I can tell you for a fact, she's not nurturing. Oh my God. I can tell by the way she stacks a dishwasher.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Yeah, true. There is not a caring bone in her body. Well, guys, we're so excited. Starts this Sunday. Yeah. Maths, New Zealand. I honestly, when the Australian one finished, I was like, there's a ginormous void inside of me. And then the New Zealand one was like,
Starting point is 01:08:20 don't you worry, we've got you. So I'm so excited. I'm excited to see you absolutely roast people on the couch. Joe, John, thank you so much. Thanks, we've got you. So I'm so excited. I'm excited to see you absolutely roast people on the couch. Joe, John, thank you so much. Thanks, guys. Thank you. Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM.
Starting point is 01:08:35 Now, sometimes after the show, as part of our genuine friendship, which I think really comes through on EM. When you say that, it makes it sound like we're not friends. Oh, friend. We are friends. That's right.

That's the hot way to take off a jumper. I didn't know that was a hot way to pull off a jumper.

Starting point is 01:11:28 on the same side of the picnic bench and I started tapping. On the bench? Yeah. And I was going fast and then I'd slow down and then I'd go fast and I was like trying to tap out a tune and a bit of Morse code and Hayley looked at me and she's like I'm going to have to ask you to stop. And I said oh sorry
Starting point is 01:11:44 because I'm aware that tapping is very annoying. And I said, they're just shooting right to my pee. And then I had a little weeping eye. And I was like, I had been tapping for a while. And I tell you what, it's the most pleasure I've given a woman in months. Yeah. It was a hot breakfast. What was I going to say?
Starting point is 01:12:06 What do I do? Take your headphones off. Yeah. And then so you reach behind and you kind of grab a big collar. You grab a big, big collar and then just pull forward. I'm choking myself. No. Your big head's getting stuck.

Starting point is 01:13:44 Jesus. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. It's cave week here at Fact of the Day. We're learning all about caves, and I just want to give a quick shout-out to the caves under Nottingham. Nottingham, the city of caves in the UK.
Starting point is 01:14:15 I've never been to Nottingham. It was actually really, really charming. I really loved it, yeah. It was 2010 when we went there, but it just popped up in my Facebook memories that the people we went with uploaded an album, so it must be around this time of the year. It was May when we went there, but it just popped up in my Facebook memories that the people we went with uploaded an album, so it must be around this time of the year. It was May, it was.
Starting point is 01:14:29 You just go into this Westfield, like any Westfield you go to, and then you go down that little alley that usually takes you to the parent rooms and the toilets and stuff, and then there's Margaret sitting there, and she's the guardian of the caves. Well, I mean, I don't know if Michael was dead, but it was 14 years ago and Michael wasn't young. So, and you go on this amazing tour of these caves that have been there for hundreds and hundreds of years.
Starting point is 01:14:54 And they'd hide in World War II. They'd shelter there from the bombings. But then they built the Westfield on top. Right. This limestone that's underneath is kind of, Nottingham's built on it. Yeah. And I just looked's underneath is kind of, Nottingham's built on it. Yeah. And it's just amazing.
Starting point is 01:15:06 And I just looked. If you're in, it's amazing because it's a history lesson, but it's also like, how did they do this? And they brewed cider down there and they tanned sheepskins into like coats and stuff and leather. I was going to say they got tans down there. How did you do that with no sun? No sun.
Starting point is 01:15:21 Eight pound, eight pound 75 per ticket per adult. We got a free one because we were going with UK tourism. We were with a guy dressed up as Robin Hood, do you remember? Yeah, we did. We actually had a tour of Nottingham with a guy. Because of the Sheriff of Nottingham and the Sherwood Forest nearby, where we went to. How bizarre. And the Sheriff was a woman.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Which I was not okay with. How advanced. How is she going to protect? Yeah, I actually think it's pronounced Sharif. It's a female. Yeah, Sharif. That's not today's cave. No, that's not today's fact.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Not today's fact. Today's fact is in Romania, there is a cave, the Movil Cave, that was only discovered in 1986. Ooh. And for the last five and a half million years, it has been isolated from the rest of the world. Oh.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Maybe yesterday we talked about the sump or the siphon where you have to go into a cave and you have to go underwater and come up into the cave. For the last five and a half million years, it's been shut off from the rest of the... So it's not getting... Anything. It's not getting oxygen. It's not getting...
Starting point is 01:16:23 So the animals in there are completely different. And rather than relying on photosynthesis, which is taking the sun's light like plants do and turning it into the energy that they need, they rely on chemosynthesis, which is chemicals that are in there. And it's the hydrothermal waters. So there's warm water in there.
Starting point is 01:16:42 That's where the chemicals come out of that these things live on. In there, there are 57 unique animal species found nowhere else on earth. Leeches, spiders, pseudoscorpions. Pseudoscorpions. That's what he was singing about. Woodlice, a centipede, a water scorpion, which is apparently very rare, and also a type of snail. None of those interest me or I'd want to run into in a cave.
Starting point is 01:17:06 You want a mammal down there. You're like an otter. Oh my god, a cute otter. Have we watched that otter documentary yet? No. I don't know if I've got the emotional on my list. Is it out? Can we talk about that on air?
Starting point is 01:17:21 I know we talked about it a lot off air. Yeah, there's an otter documentary. And Otter turns up and basically saves a man who was in the middle of a dark period of his life. Billy and Molly, an Otter love story. Yeah, is it Nat Geo or something? Nat Geo, so yeah, it's on Disney+. It looks beautifully shot. It looks gorgeous.
Starting point is 01:17:38 It looks like there might be some tears. But this cave, scientists are only allowed to go into it a couple of times a year. It's super hard to get on the list to go in. You've got to be like a top-end scientist. You can't just be like, I do science and I can't go in the cave. I've got school, see science. You can't say that.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Can you say that? I've done science. No. I've done science. And they recently could date one of the animals in there. The snail has lived in the cave for more than, not the same snail. I thought you meant going for a day's sake.
Starting point is 01:18:06 For a little pasta and red wine. A couple of water scorpions hooked up in the camera. No, one of the snails, not the exact snail, but the species of snail has inhabited the cave for over two million years
Starting point is 01:18:15 and never left. Holy. And evolved to the condition. They should just take one out and plop it in a park and see if it's like, whoa. What if it went crazy though?
Starting point is 01:18:23 Like possums in New Zealand. They're like, I'll bring them down. Bit of fur, bit of fun. So they shoot. And now they're everywhere. Yeah. Maybe. Also, do yourself a favour this weekend
Starting point is 01:18:32 and look up mink hunting, the mink that hunts rats. Why? This mink killed 350 rats in a day. We should mink them out everywhere. No. That's another problem. This is a mink on a leash. We do this to ourselves a lot, don's another problem. This is a main con.
Starting point is 01:18:45 We do this to ourselves a lot, don't we? Main con a leash, my favourite Korn song. Does sound like a death metal band, doesn't it? Main con a leash. Get ready for a song 350 raps in a day. Today's fact of the day is that there is an isolated cave in Romania that has been isolated from the rest of the world for the last 5.5 million years.
Starting point is 01:19:09 Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Eminem's daughter Hayley got married this week. How'd you get to Sweden? Yeah, remember that? My dad's gone crazy. Oh, yeah. She was like a baby child.
Starting point is 01:19:35 A tidy little person and now she's married. Yeah, she is. Oh, my God. Did you see their first little dance? That was what I saw, the slow dance between Eminem, who has dyed his hair. Has had hair pucks? Like, he has 100% dyed his hair dark. Because his hair is naturally really dark.
Starting point is 01:19:53 Yeah, but even the beard looks mascaraed up. I think he's just done a little bit of that fill-in powder. Or do you think he's gone to Turkey? I think he might have gone to Turkey. Well, so he's so rich, he could just go to the... He could go to an American doctor. Yeah, an actual... Probably just get it done at home.
Starting point is 01:20:08 Yeah. But he had a slow dance with her and she is like an adult. Yeah. My dad is going crazy. That can't be because I'm only just an adult. And that song was only like two years ago. It was 2001, guys. Was it?
Starting point is 01:20:23 Yeah. That one. It was that album. I would have guessed... The Eminem show. I would have, guys. Was it? Yeah. That one. It was that album. I would have guessed. The Eminem show. I would have guessed 2004, 2005, but okay. Okay, so it's even older. Great.
