Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. The Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley Big Pod. Enjoy a refreshing McCafe iced coffee available only from Macca's. Great things are brewing. Good morning, welcome to the show, Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley. Do you like my tooth? My new fixed tooth? I didn't even know that your tooth had been chipped. Yeah, I know. You never notice when I look terrible.
Starting point is 00:00:24 You never notice when I look terrible. You never notice when I've got a beard on the go or a moustache in full flume. You never notice when I've got a chipped tooth. It's beautiful. Stunning.
Starting point is 00:00:33 So either I really don't pay attention to you or I just, every day I see the beauty, you know? The normal, natural beauty. The normal, natural beauty.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Yeah. It's gorgeous. Was that the right thing to say? I don't know. I'm not listening. You don't look, I don't listen. This is great for me. It's good.
Starting point is 00:00:50 This is good. Well, guys, today is today. Oh my God, it's Taylor Thursdays. I knew you were trouble when you were there. Welcome to Taylor Thursdays. You have arrived. Keep listening all day for your final chance to see Taylor live.
Starting point is 00:01:08 So, here's how it works. We're going to play today before 5.30, before Brianne Clint do the draw at 5.30, we're going to play a bunch of Taylor Swift songs. When you hear a Taylor Swift song today, because it's Thursday,
Starting point is 00:01:24 before 5.30, you have to be the first caller through on 0800DARLS.M. That's right. If we pick you, we answer the phone, and you are our caller, you are in the drawer at 5.30 for flights, accommodation, and two tickets to the Eros tour. I would sort of be, I'd be putting 0800DIALZM on my favourites. Yeah. So that you're not going, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. Because you've already missed it at that point. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:01:53 I have a feeling we might get a few calls. Pre-call it now. Just have it there. And then just press redial. Yep. Hit it again. So, be listening. And the first Taylor song, I'm just looking ahead here.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Don't be a little tease. It's not too far away. It's not too far away. I'm excited because you still cannot get tickets. I'm saying, look, I'm saying, I'm saying. And then even if you get tickets now, like flights are insane. I saw Loose Control by Teddy Swims. That's coming up.
Starting point is 00:02:22 I thought it was Music Makes You Lose Control by Missy Elliott. I was like, we've gone rogue. It's actually Teddy Swims covering Missy Elliott. Oh, yeah. That would be great. That would be great. I'd be here for that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:34 So listen out for the Taylor Swift songs today. The first one is coming up. I'll say it in the next 20 minutes. The top six. Is this a warning? Is this trouble ahead? This is a warning. There's solar storms inbound,
Starting point is 00:02:47 and it could cost you your sweet, precious ability to listen to FM radio. Good. Just momentarily. What is the purpose of us if people aren't listening? Wait, not during Taylor Thursday. When is this meant to happen? Solar storms, baby. I feel like they say this all the time, like the Y2K bug.
Starting point is 00:03:03 No, nothing ever happens. No, there are solar storms, and they do like weird, it generally means mega auroras, like southern lights, northern lights go crazy. But it's like it affects the magnetic poles. I would say my auroras are not mega. You've got huge auroras. I've got tiny auroras. Yours are tiny.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Mine are like. Mine are pink. Mine are pink. Yours are luncheon pink. Yours are tiny. Mine are like... Mine are pink. Mine are pink. Yours are luncheon pink. Salami pink. Prosciutto pink. Yeah. Warren put salami on his nipples once.
Starting point is 00:03:34 And then he fledge-ate them. Fledge-ate the salami. Well, the top six. Yeah, the top six things you'll have to do without us during the solar storm. There's no radio. Next on the show, though, Ina, when's the last time you did a job interview? 2008.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Yeah, it's been a while for you two. Maybe never. I think I did come in and do a little trial with you guys. Yeah, radio's more just kind of like, it's quite casual, isn't it? It's like, do you come and do a trial? I have a quick chat. It's not really a formal job interview.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Yeah, no. Well, somebody's got a tip. If you are finding yourself in a job interview. Well, there's been a study done when it comes to job interviews and applying for jobs. Yeah. And humour bragging
Starting point is 00:04:21 is the thing that they recommend. Humour bragging? Bragging that you've got a good sense of humour? No, when you have an accomplishment or something like that, rather than saying... I'm the best there is. I'm the best there is. I hit my KPIs for the year by August.
Starting point is 00:04:38 They always say KPIs. What does that even mean? Kilometres per inches. Yeah, how many kilometres in an hour? Because they always say that in meetings, we've got a KPI. I'm like, I don't even know what that means. We always go to these meetings about the vision of the company and they're always like, we've got the KPIs.
Starting point is 00:04:54 And we're all like, uh-huh. I've got the answer. Do you want it or do you want to live with it being kilometres per inch? I don't want to focus on the KPIs. I will forever be burdened with this knowledge. Really? Yeah, I don't want to know it. It's on you.
Starting point is 00:05:06 I just know that we want the graph to be bigger each time, so I try harder. Yeah, yeah. Like, that's me. The graph go up. Yeah, graph go up. And they're like, yeah, going towards the KPIs. I don't care where it's going up.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Kilometres per inches. The more kilometres per inches we have here at ZM, it's the better, really, isn't it? It's sad now that he knows what KPI means. We don't need to know. We don't need to know. We don't need to know. No.
Starting point is 00:05:30 So rather than saying in a job interview, I'm really good at this, use some humor when you brag so that people don't think you're a dick, basically. Right, yeah, like paper it with humor. So they used an example where they found a whole bunch of job interviews and sent like a little sentence away, and they found that the sentence or the application that they used, did Carwin just...
Starting point is 00:05:55 Carwin's trying to tell you in the chat what KPI. Carwin, delete that message, please. I read it. I read it. Oh. See, I still don't know what KPI means. I'm ignoring that message. These meanings have just totally changed in shape for me. I read it. Oh. See, I still don't know what KPI means. I'm ignoring that message. These meetings have just totally changed in shape for me.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Okay, right. Because you look really sad now. Yeah, I'm going to focus on this now. I'm so happy I don't know what KPI means. All I wanted to do was just entertain the nation. So when it comes to humour bragging, they applied to a whole bunch of these jobs and they used a statement saying,
Starting point is 00:06:22 I am highly motivated and detail orientated a sales rep with experience and a proven track record of people skills. I look forward to supporting your company's goals Oh, what a square. Dedicatively Dedicatively? Don't use that word. Don't use that word, I don't even know how to say it.
Starting point is 00:06:40 You've just come across as such an arsehole when you said that. I wouldn't use a word that I wasn't sure I knew the meaning of in a job interview. That application didn't get many replies, but when they said, I'm a driven sales rep, blah, blah, blah, the more coffee you can provide, the more output I will produce. Yeah, a little joke.
Starting point is 00:06:57 They got three times as many replies. And then the same when it comes to in-person interviews, they found that humour bragging works way better. I think humour works in literally every facet of life. Does it work in KPIs? I just wish I didn't know what they were. I know what they are now. I really want you to know what they are.
Starting point is 00:07:19 You might be able to tell I'm significantly more boring now than I was before I found out what KPIs were. Yeah, me too. Listen to this voice. It's lost all zest for life. It really has. I've lost a lot of it. Next on the show, we'll try to hit our KPIs.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I'm going to tell you about something that was in a cream donut that I had. While you're doing that, I hear a song. Could it be? It does sound like Taylor Swift. Who could it be by? It feels like Taylor Swift. ZM. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Oh, man, if you thought that was exciting. I had a pretty good treat recently. I was just telling these guys, to be honest, we're struggling to fill every gap on the show today, so that's why this one's... So you were talking about a donut you ate. What was the best thing you ate yesterday? Mine was the halloumi we had for breakfast.
Starting point is 00:08:02 I didn't have halloumi for breakfast. No, I said, but we went out for breakfast and I had halloumi. Yeah. That cheese scone was really good that I had at the same time as you had halloumi we had for breakfast. I didn't have halloumi for breakfast. No, I said, but we went out for breakfast and I had halloumi. Yeah. That cheese scone was really good that I had at the same time as you had halloumi. Fletch had a chilli scramble. Yeah, that was good. That was probably the best thing. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Had a pretty good protein shake. How do you do it? Water? Yeah, water. Protein powder. I don't understand people that do milk and protein shakes. That's a milkshake, my dude. It's too much.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Yeah, that's too much. That's a milkshake, my dude. That's too much. That's a lot. That must be thick. You must get tooty after that. Yeah, chugging milk. Is he on a hot day? Yeah, I don't get that. Chugging milk.
Starting point is 00:08:33 In the words of Ron Burgundy, milk was a bad choice. Most times it was. So Sade went and popped down to the bakery and came back with a cream donut in the long ones. They're cream buns. Do I call them cream buns or cream donuts? You know what I'm talking about, the long ones. It's the cream.
Starting point is 00:08:49 I call it cream donut, yeah. The long sweet bread split down the middle filled with cream. And a dollop of jam. Here's what was different. This one had a squirt of custard the length of it. What? I know, I know. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:09:05 What kind of custard? Custard, What? I know. I know. Yeah, I know. I know. What kind of custard? Custard square custard. Yellow custard. Yeah. I think leftover custard square custard. But still the dollop of jam
Starting point is 00:09:12 and the icing sugar? Correct. Sprinkled over? Yes, correct, sir. I could be down on that. Game changer. Nasty. Do they normally do fake cream?
Starting point is 00:09:21 Or real cream? Usually fake because it's got that piping tip. Yeah, I love fake cream. Do you? Yeah, I love it. It's sweeter than ordinary cream. I don't know why it's so bad.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I don't like it at all. I like my cream to be a little bit subtle in flavour, not too sweet. Right. Well, that's mock cream's not for you then because it is a sweeter cream, isn't it? Yeah. Okay, but this could be, you're saying this is game changer. I'm just saying if you're listening, because people like this early, a lot of bakeries. Yeah. Remember when we did bakery of the week? Yeah, because people up this early, a lot of bakeries. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Remember when we did bakery of the week? Yeah, it was good stuff. It was good stuff. Learning about the treats all around the country. But yeah, I reckon pipe in a length of custard. Custard. If you're rocking a bakery. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:58 This is just from a guy who eats custard, who eats cream buns. Eats a lot of bakery deliciousness. Damn. Yeah, good tip. I hate it when we talk about food on this show. Because now I will not make it to nine o'clock without having a cream donut. Or something custardy.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Or something laden with custard. Now, all women agree. I speak on behalf of all women. Every woman. Every one. Every single woman. And I have the right to do so. I've checked with all of them. Okay. Yeah, on behalf of all women, every woman. Every one. Every single woman. And I have the right to do so. I've checked with all of them.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Okay. Yeah, I text them all. Do you know, we're all in a group chat. Okay. Tell you what, quite toxic in there. I don't think you'd laugh. Imagine if women were like the fungal network. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Speaking of which, fact of the day today. Oh yeah, very excited. Pretty good one. Long tase, long tase. Pretty good one. So all women can be split into two categories. Okay. This is according to you or
Starting point is 00:10:49 It's according to all women. Okay. It's according to TikTok. Which represents most women. Yep. You are either a tummy girl or a headache girl. You are either suffering from terrible tummy issues or you're like, you are prone to a migraine. Tell me either suffering from terrible tummy issues or
Starting point is 00:11:05 you're like, you are prone to a migraine. Tell me I'm wrong. Carwyn? Yes, 100%. I am a headache girly. You're a headache girly. Shannon? Tummy ulcers. Sprout's a tummy. Sprout's a tummy girl. And I never get headaches if I'm hungover. No headache ever.
Starting point is 00:11:22 I never get headaches. My stomach, I'm throwing up. I'm sore. Oh my god, okay. The concept of if I'm hungover, no headache ever. I never get headaches. My stomach, I'm throwing up. I'm sore. Oh my God, okay. People, the concept of Panadol to me is so bizarre. Oh yeah, no, I'm on Dancitron, anti-nauseous, we've got heartburn. I'm having bloody like, what, liquid Gaviscon.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I never get a headache. We have a box of anti-nauseous in the office that Hayley and I share. You know, anytime I'm like, my tummy's a bit funny, I get a little sweet treat on my tongue and then it's all sorted. Whereas Karwin's often rockin' my brain. I just have Canada on every bag. Yeah. So people on TikTok are going like, where's the lie?
Starting point is 00:11:57 You were one of these two things and all women are like, yes, they are. What would you say Sade is? I don't think she's either. You should text her. She's probably one of them. Or she's a man. So those are the options. She might be a man.
Starting point is 00:12:11 You are either one or you're both which makes you a bisexual. I'm honest. She doesn't get headaches very often and nah, she doesn't have stomach stuff. That bitch. The way she eats she should though. Yesterday you should have seen her and her dad pounded this giant bag of muscles. And they made this sauce and I walked in
Starting point is 00:12:30 and he said, don't come too close white man, it stinks of Asians over here. And I was like, well you're the only person I know that could say that out loud. That is a wild sentence from her. She's not a tummy girl after eating bags of muscles. And I walked in and she opened up the mussel
Starting point is 00:12:45 and went up to me and I was like, because I had a bad experience with mussels, I went overboard. There was an all-you-can-eat mussels scenario. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:12:53 And I pushed the boat out and I've never been able to do mussels since. No. Oysters, open up, let me in. I do feel like this tummy headache thing,
Starting point is 00:13:02 it really has a Pakiha vibe to it. Right. Do you know what I mean? really has a Pakeha vibe to it. Right. It's got a white girl vibe to it. It does. Really got a white girl vibe. I will not speak on behalf. When I say all women,
Starting point is 00:13:13 I'm speaking on behalf of all white women. Okay. Predominantly white women. But like, so much so that like IBS, you know, like when you see trendings, like what's trending on Instagram, what's trending on TikTok or Twitter or whatever it is now. IBS, you know, like when you see trendings, like what's trending on Instagram,
Starting point is 00:13:25 what's trending on TikTok or Twitter or whatever it is now. IBS is a trend. And it's like, they're trying to work out like, why is IBS a trend? I've got IBS. And I'm like, oh yeah, I see this IBS content all the time. Maybe incorrect, but my experience with Sade's Asian side of her family is that they would just tell you there's no such thing.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Yeah. Eat more, no such thing. I totally blame. I've got a sore stomach. That is because you are hungry. Eat more. Just eat, eat, and then they tell you
Starting point is 00:13:51 you're getting fat. Yeah, eat more adventurous wild stuff. Put chilli in it and seafood and you'll be alright. Eat it all. Eat it all.
Starting point is 00:13:58 I've got a sore tummy. It's because you're hungry and now you're fat. Have some smoked fish. Yum. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Ailey. Play ZM. From the self-driving ZM think tank, this is the top six.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Hello there. Hi. Today's top six. Bad news. I'm emotional because there's a solar storm that may disrupt the radio. My goodness. Radio frequencies. So it's just, we do have a lot of solar storms, but this one's a big one. This is when something happens on the sun, eh?
Starting point is 00:14:36 Like it explodes and then goes into space. The sun's exploding. Is that what a solar storm is? What are you doing here? We should go and be with our families. It's a big bit of energy and it just like shoots through space and it hits Earth, but we're like protected, but then it affects the magnetic stuff because that's all at the top.
Starting point is 00:14:51 That's how the compass works. Big auroras. However, it did cause a radio blackout over the Pacific Ocean. Uh-oh. That's very close to us. Recently. My goodness. That's the ocean we're in, eh?
Starting point is 00:15:03 That's our ocean. That's our ocean. So when we're floating around him. So have they said where this is going to happen or when? No. It's just that the sun seems to be in a good mood to be doing this sort of stuff. Goodness me. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:15 So I've got the top six things you're going to need to be able to do by yourself. God, I hope it doesn't happen on a Taylor Thursday. People will be distraught. It could. Will the phones go out as well? Well, if we're not here, yeah, how are we going to do it? We'd have to go to the streets. Well, I'm going to now tell you how to prepare.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Okay. The top six things you need to be able to do by yourself. Number six on the list of the top six things to do without us is come up with your own top six. He does it every day. You do it every day. You need to come up with your own top six because you've become used to it. You've become reliant on Gordon's top six. You've become reliant on the top six.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Okay. Number five on the list of the top six things you need become used to it. You've become reliant on Gordon's top six. Number five on the list of the top six things you'll need to do without us. Google what Jason Marmol is up to today and then imagine Hayley dribbling over it. Because you won't be able to hear her dribbling over it. I googled this morning. He was on Kimmel last night. Also,
Starting point is 00:15:57 he posted that photo topless. Did you see that? I'm changing to my phone background. Okay, you did see that. You guys are going to need to be able did see that. Here we go. You guys need to be able to do that. Number four on the list of the top six things you're going to need to be able to do without us during a radio
Starting point is 00:16:11 blackout during a solar storm. Imagine all of the sales happening that you'd hear in our ads. Oh, yeah. Always a lot of sales. There's sales. And it's good to know about the sales. You know, radio advertising got me this week. We're not immune to this. I bought some Curtain Wizard. You know, radio advertising got me this week. We're not immune to this. I bought some curtain wizard.
Starting point is 00:16:27 You did too, off of an ad. That's what we're doing today when I get home. Yep. You've got some mould on your curtains. Yeah, despite, you know, always open windows, no condensation on the windows, we suffer from mouldy curtains. And curtain wizard is going to be getting a thorough working out this afternoon
Starting point is 00:16:44 because I heard the ad saying you just spray it on. I just want to say it's so brave of him to speak out about his mouldy curtains. It is. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:51 Only the hangy drapes never the blinds that come down. What blinds have I got? Roman blinds? Well because they're tucked up mostly the Roman blinds
Starting point is 00:16:59 or Venetian blinds. Yeah but these curtains are always like maybe it's because when they're pulled they bunch. Yeah. But there's always airflow. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:17:06 I'll let you guys know how the curtain goes. Do keep us updated on that. That's yucky flinch. That with the chip plates, it's kind of like, oh my god. Do you know what I mean? What kind of house are they running? It's a yucky house. They don't show that on Instagram, do they? No, they do.
Starting point is 00:17:22 I'll show you my mouldy curtains on Instagram. I'd love to see you open up about your mouldy curtains. I will. Number three on the list of the top six things you'll need to be able to do without us during a solar storm radio blackout, come up with your own fact of the day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Sometimes it's hard, isn't it? It's hard. You've got to check them too, don't you? Because if you do a wrong fact, you hear about it. You hear about it. Number two on the list of the top six things you need to be able to do without us during a solar storm radio blackout is remember that
Starting point is 00:17:49 you can enjoy a refreshing McCafe iced coffee available only at Macca's. Great things are brewing. Thank you. I normally read that, but you've saved me doing that later. People have got to just remember. I might chuck another one in just so they don't forget. No, there's no need. My Macca's rewards points with every barista made McCafe iced coffee.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I don't think we should cram them all into one little bit. I'm just trying to make people remember. Thank you. There's something about the way that Fletch does it that I prefer. Yeah. And number one on the list of the top six things you need to be able to do without us during a radio blackout thanks to a solar storm is check the time yourself. Which I would be doing anyway because Fletch gets it wrong at least
Starting point is 00:18:26 twice a day. At least, no, once a day. At least once. He always says it's like quarter to nine and you're like, oh, we're nearly done. It's quarter to seven. Yeah. Well, it's actually 16 minutes away from seven. He's spot on there. Spot on. 44 minutes past six. Sure.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Ooh, yuck. That's today's top six. Play. ZM's Fletch. That's today's top sex. Well, Apple have made it harder for people to steal your iPhone. There's a new update. If you've got an iPhone, iOS 17.3, you update your phone, and then you go into settings. I didn't update my phone. You told me to update my phone. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:19:01 I didn't do it. You've got all these problems with your phone. I know. And you haven't updated your phone. Just update your phone. Do you know what's not a problem with my phone? I didn't do it. You've got all these problems with your phone. I know. And you haven't updated your phone. Just update your phone. Do you know what's not a problem with my phone? My new backdrop. Jason Momoa.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Topless playing guitar. Yes, please. As you were saying. So you turn on, it's just a little toggle switch under Face ID and password. Stolen device protection. You flick that on. And what it means is that even if somebody saw you put in your PIN code for your phone, 1, 2, 3, 4, for example, they...
Starting point is 00:19:31 Why would you read out my PIN code on the air? It's so rude. I'm so sorry. I told you that in confidence. Your password 1, 2, 3 also needs to change as well. What are you doing, Fletch? It means that they will still need a face ID to get into that phone.
Starting point is 00:19:48 If your phone is not around your home or a regular place that your phone is. Oh, so you can set like safety locations. Like I've got at work and at home set for if I walk away from my car. Yeah, so if your phone's at home or work, you'll be able to just get in with a pin code. Someone could pick up
Starting point is 00:20:06 your phone and pin code it. But if your phone, say you left it at a restaurant and somebody saw you put in your pin code, they would not just need your pin code, they'd also need your face.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Aha. I'm into this. It's great. It's smart. For this to work, you need to have face ID on as well or fingerprint if you still got one
Starting point is 00:20:22 of the fingerprint phones. Yeah. But yeah, it just means that, but it also means if you're away with your partner and you're not at home or work or a regular place, you couldn't snoop their phone. Couldn't snoop on their phone. Unless your face ID is in their phone.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Unless they're asleep and you shine a torch on them and hold the phone to their face. Does that work, does it? Yeah. Do you have to kind of poke open their eyes? Yeah. Their eyelids? And they're like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:20:47 And you're just like, I can't get enough of those beautiful brown eyes. I just needed another look. It's 2am in the morning. I know, but I just love those eyes. Yeah. And then you've got them. Yeah. And then you can have a little sleepy work.
Starting point is 00:20:58 No, you put sunglasses on them while they sleep. Slowly slip some sunglasses on them. Right. Tell me more. Because then, you know, you can set it so that you can do your sunglass setting on the face. I've got a face I need. That's them, but they've got sunglasses on.
Starting point is 00:21:13 And then it can't see that their eyes are shut, and they don't get the bright light because they've got sunglasses on. Interesting. And then they wake up with sunglasses on, and they're like, man, I sleep weird. Starting with their day cool, though. And then if they do suspect that it was you,
Starting point is 00:21:25 gaslight them and tell them they're acting crazy. Tell them about this gaslighting. So you just don't want to get in trouble for something, so you just change the entire circumstance. You just tell them that they're crazy. You tell them that they've invented that in their head. Yeah. Have you ever snooped on your partner's phone, on Aaron's phone?
Starting point is 00:21:41 No. To find what? He chats about what kind of screws. To find what? Yeah. He chats about what kind of screws he likes and stuff. Yeah. And screws, I mean like decking screws, not screwing with it. Yeah. So no, I've never snooped. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Nothing to see there. I actually genuinely would be quite impressed and sort of chuffed if he was having an affair. If he managed to pull it off. Like, proud of you, hon. Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Speaking of loving parents, we need to talk next about the amount of money. Are we talking about it right now?
Starting point is 00:22:12 I beg your pardon. There is a father who not only didn't buy his daughter Taylor Swift tickets, but spent $3,000 on Stanley products. Now, Stanley is huge at the moment. It's the hot brand at the moment. It's the hot brand. We talked about the straws.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Everyone's giving themselves wrinkle lips. Yeah. Because they're sucking that. Well, it's the same with Frank Green bottles, because that's a straw, and you're like. Do I have wrinkle lips? Well, not yet, but if you keep going. Like, that's how smoke is.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Get wrinkle lips. I know. Do I have wrinkle? I Well, not yet, but if you keep going... Like, that's how, like, smokers get wrinkle lips. Yeah, I know. Do I have wrinkle... I can sit through a straw with that. Well, no, Carwin said you go on the side. But then that just gives you a side wrinkle. Look at that. Look at the side. It goes in that way.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Oh, my God. And that's the thing. Everybody is buying Stanley bottles. So I don't have a Stanley. You rock a Yeti. I've got a Yeti. I've got a couple of Yetis. I rock a Frank Green.
Starting point is 00:23:05 What are you doing over there? Oh, he's a Sisti. I've got a Yeti. I've got a couple of Yetis. I rock a Frank Green. What are you doing over there? Oh, he's a Sestema. I've got a big mouth Sestema. Good on you for supporting a New Zealand brand. Yeah, us pigs over here. Yeah. Yeah. Well, she's 16 years old,
Starting point is 00:23:17 and she decided that she wanted to collect all of the Stanley cups in all of the colour ranges. And then they drop, like, limited edition colours. Oh, they're smart. Yeah. They know what they're doing. And then they drop like limited edition colours. Oh, they're smart. Yeah. They know what they're doing. They are playing us like a harp. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:30 They drop limited edition colours. And you see these things, particularly in America, who they love to shop, of like stores opening and people like to the Stanley things. Like lining up. Like in a frenzy. Now, she calculated that her parents, because she's 16 years old, doesn't have her own money, have spent
Starting point is 00:23:46 $3,000 on these Yeti products, which is not Yeti products, sorry, Stanley products. What a spoiled brat. I'm kind of like, shame on you parents. Do you know what I mean? For enabling this thing. But then you know there would be people out there that have
Starting point is 00:24:02 spent their $3,000 of their own money on these easily. Totally. Or just like once you start collecting something, I get it. Like it's hard to stop and then you look back and you're like, oh, sure, I actually spent quite a lot of money. But when you add it up, you're trying not to think about it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:17 So I wanted to know, and I think we could get some calls and some messages in, what did you spend an insane amount of money on? And maybe it just got away on you, you know? So, like, what are you collecting? What have you collected? Like, your Star Wars toys would add up. But I know you've got sent a lot for free. Yeah. Oh, my lightsabers.
Starting point is 00:24:40 The lightsabers I bought when I went to Disneyland. I got carried away there. How many lightsabers could you make or collect that's unlimited, right? They just keep bringing out new ones. Oh, that's right. You did go a little OTT when you went over to Star Wars Day. I really want the Yoda one. Thank you for introducing this ability.
Starting point is 00:24:55 What did you do, Fleck? I just turned his mic off. Oh, my God. Let's just hang out. The Yoda one is awesome because it's smaller, but it's more expensive. It's a shame he's got his own button. Wait, how much is a lightsaber?
Starting point is 00:25:05 The Yoda one is $220 American dollars. Whoa, no, no, no it's more expensive. It's a shame he's got his own button. Wait, how much is a lightsaber? The Yoda one is 220 American dollars. Whoa, no, no, no. For a toy. So that's like nearly, what, 400 New Zealand dollars? That's ridiculous. Collector's edition. Collector's edition. Okay, so you only need like five or six lightsabers
Starting point is 00:25:17 and you're already thousands of dollars. That's crazy. I also wonder, because I've mentioned before that Aaron, years and years ago, decided to collect all of the Lord of the Rings figurines. I know, hot, right? Excuse me while I try to calm down. But they would have cost quite a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Yeah. Because he's got three huge boxes of them. But he also was gifted a lot because they made it easy, you know, for gifts and stuff. And then he got them valued and they were only worth a couple of grand. And I was like, you've spent more. Yeah, but you've got to hold on to it. Dude, we are holding on. It's taking up precious space in our garage.
Starting point is 00:25:52 For longer. So let's take some calls. 0800 DALS at M, text through 9696. What's the thing that you sort of collected that you spent an insane amount of money on? No judgment from us. No. Maybe you're going to have to estimate roughly how much you've spent
Starting point is 00:26:09 over the years collecting whatever it is you collect. Maybe you collect coffees every day. You've done the maths and you could have bought a house. They were right. We're wanting to know what is the thing that you've sort of started collecting and you've spent a ton of money on. We all get into this little, we all get sucked into something. Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Do you remember, this is for the girlies, or maybe you guys are too young, lip smackers? Carwin? Oh, no, am I showing my age? Lip smackers? Lip smackers? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Were they like lipsticks?
Starting point is 00:26:40 Chapsticks. Yeah. When I was young, lip smackers in the 90s was like the thing and you had to have like cola, watermelon, vanilla, all the flavors. Oh my god, a cola lip balm. Yum. I used to nibble on it a little bit. You do a little bit on your lip and then push a bit hard
Starting point is 00:26:56 so the lip came out. It was the vibe was to like buy them all. I'd probably spend a bit of money on it. Adrian, good morning. What are you spending all your money on? Lego. Are you 12 years old? No, no, I'm 37.
Starting point is 00:27:14 The thing is, when you're 12, you can't afford the big Lego sets. So why not as an adult enjoy those things? What's your biggest, most expensive Lego set? Probably one of all we want is the Millennium Falcon that's about $1,300. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. the Millennium Falcon that's about $1,300. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Sorry, how many hundred dollars?
Starting point is 00:27:28 $1,300. $1,300. That was a phenomenal amount of pieces, wasn't it? Do you mean as in $1,000 and then also in addition $300? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:39 My wife's is more. She's got the Lego Titanic which is $1,700. Okay, because I was literally just about to ask you if you had a wife because she'd be poo-poo but she's on board. She's on board. She's got the Lego Titanic, which is $1,700. Okay. Because I was literally just about to ask you if you had a wife because she'd be poo-poo, but she's on board. She's on board. Dangerous couple. Yeah, because is your house just full of Lego?
Starting point is 00:27:54 Yeah, we've probably spent nearly $10,000 on Lego. I remember, I always remember 7,541 pieces in the Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon that you've got. I remember when we spoke to Ed Sheeran and that was what he told us like when he
Starting point is 00:28:08 you know because growing up didn't have the money to buy all these toys and as an adult just started buying like and I remember him saying Lego
Starting point is 00:28:15 big Lego sets and stuff yeah that's it we've got the money now because we're all grown up so we buy the Lego sets I love that I've even got the Death Star as well
Starting point is 00:28:23 which I'm pretty sure Warren would want yeah dude Death Star I'm feeling a beautiful friendship blossom in here I'm pretty sure Warren would want. Yeah, the Death Star. I'm feeling a beautiful friendship blossoming here. I'm feeling there's a lot, there's a real sexual tension.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Yeah, I feel like we should leave. Why'd you have to make it sexual? I know what you're doing. I know what you build with your Legos. Big C's and B's. Celine, this is your dad. What does he collect and spend all of his money on?
Starting point is 00:28:42 He spends thousands on cowboy hats. Okay. Is he a cowboy? He's not even a cowboy. He is a farmer, but not a cowboy. Okay. Because they're not cheap, are they? Like the Akubras?
Starting point is 00:28:57 You've got one of those. Yeah, those are nice. They're a couple of hundies. Yeah, they are. They'll last forever. Because the one that I've got of my pop is a Cobra hat. That's like 30-odd years old. How much?
Starting point is 00:29:08 Does your dad have one of those Harry Styles pink kind of feather bowl ones? No, nothing pink. I know his most expensive hat was $1,700 and he didn't even like it. What? I'm sorry. Is that one with corks? Has that got corks on it? That'll be the one with corks.
Starting point is 00:29:25 The corks add extra. Because the corks are extra money. Yeah, it was a pretty crazy hat. Oh, mate, that's insane. What's the hats they wear on Yellowstone? I'm just looking at that brand. Are they in cobras? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:29:36 They're American. They're an American one. Oh, right, okay. That'd be expensive because they look quality. They do. So I'm on the YellowstoneTVshop.com. Oh, my God, really? Yellowstone and Bailey Cowboy Hat Co-Lab, the Western, 10-gallon hat, $450 US.
Starting point is 00:29:51 That's like $600 New Zealand dollars. Wow. Okay. I mean, great show. I can see why people spend the money. You can get Rip's hat for $180. Okay. You're on a hat buzz now.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Dwayne, what do you spend all your money on and collect? Oh, morning, guys. I'm suffering a shoe addiction. Are you a sneakerhead? A sneakerhead, yes. Are you one of these sneakerheads, though, that doesn't wear them and they just leave them in the box? Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:30:18 No, no. These are going on my feet. Okay, good. That makes me happy. Yeah. Yeah, 30 pairs on rotation and probably about 20, but 20 others that I just occasionally wear. But it's about 50-odd shoes for about two feet.
Starting point is 00:30:34 What's your favourite pair? Jordan. Yeah, I was going to say. Jordan, one load. So are you a Nike boy? Yeah, yeah. I mean, I've got a range of all of them. I've even got quite a pair of Crocs.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Cut them off. I told you what the Crocs look like. I'm having all of this. Do you have a pair of hush puppies? Very comfortable. Cumps? Oh, I think later on, yeah, that might be on there. Later on.
Starting point is 00:31:01 It's good that you've not written that off. Yeah. Crocs are a gateway shoe. Yeah. To a pair of cumps. Some messages in. Kendra, I just dropped $10,000
Starting point is 00:31:11 on a new mountain bike. God, it drives itself up a mountain for that price. Those bikes are like good road bikes and mountain bikes, not cheap.
Starting point is 00:31:17 An e-bike, say, might as well buy a car and just keep floating the earth. Bryn says, Gordon Ramsay Masterclass. Oh yeah, that's
Starting point is 00:31:26 an online thing, isn't it? I bought Masterclass and I paid for like three years and I did one Masterclass and it is so expensive. That's how they get you, right? I spent $30 on Harry Jowsey's OnlyFans. Why does that name
Starting point is 00:31:42 ring a bell? He was for all the reality shows. Oh! And he came in a bunch of times. I recognise him. And he's living in LA now, right? Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:55 He was Australian. Heartbreak Island was the New Zealand show he was on. Then he was on Netflix's Two Hots to Handles. Wait, are men on OnlyFans? Who's paying for that? Woman, if you want men, if you want a man, literally just walk out and be like,
Starting point is 00:32:13 I would like a man and there'll be a line for you. You don't need to be paying for that. I know. I want to see somebody's abs. I literally thought it was OnlyWomen. Really? I did.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Oh, wow. So I guess that's kind of wasted your money now, hasn't it? Oh, God. I'm going to get OnlyFans. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Silly little poe. Silly little poe.
Starting point is 00:32:39 It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little poe. Silly little poe. Silly little silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole. Silly Little Pole was Barbie snubbed at the Oscars. Ryan Gosling getting the old tickeroo for a nomination for Best Actor. And America Ferreira for Supporting. Yep. Yep. She's great.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Barbie got eight nominations in total across the board, including Best Picture. Yeah. Not director. Not director. Who also wrote it with her husband. Yeah. Who's her writing partner.
Starting point is 00:33:17 And Margot Robbie snubbed. Margot Robbie, nothing for lead actress. One of the, well, you'd say the biggest movie at the box office. Yeah. Last year. Yeah. But that doesn't always equal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:28 I mean, Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King. The first two movies never got even nominated for Best Picture, did they? And then the third one
Starting point is 00:33:35 cleaned up. Yeah. But generally, the big box office hits, your Avengers, your, what's that one with the blue people?
Starting point is 00:33:42 Avatar. Smurfs. Smurfs. And you want the Smurfs movies Smurfs. And you know what? The Smurfs movies were robbed. They were never nominated for Best Picture. I didn't even want to talk about it. Especially that first one with Hank Azaria as Gargamel.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Beautiful mix of live action and animation. But the Oscars often do this. You know, like through awards season, and you'll see like the Critics' Choice Awards, the BAFTAs, the Emmys, and all this kind of stuff. And they're sort of similar, right? There'll be a few extra things or, you know. But then the Oscars can often do this
Starting point is 00:34:10 and just totally change paths. It's because you've got a lot of old school like filmmakers and they're very pure, they're purists. Yeah. They see a movie like this. Male Pale and Stale is the board. They see a movie like this and they're like, no.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Well, I saw a thing that said, like, the fact that Margot and Greta didn't get a nomination is literally the plot of the Barbie movie. So what did Ryan Gosling say? So Ryan Gosling, who got nominated for an Oscar, which is exciting for him, he said, you know, I'm extremely honoured to be nominated by my colleagues alongside such remarkable artists in a year of so many great films.
Starting point is 00:34:46 And I never thought I'd be saying this. I'm also incredibly honoured and proud that that's for portraying a plastic doll named Ken. However, there is no Ken without Barbie and there is no Barbie movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally celebrated film. No recognition would be possible for anyone on the film without their talent, grit and genius. He said, to say that I'm disappointed that they're not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement. And we may have said he was nominated for Best Actor,
Starting point is 00:35:13 Best Supporting Actor. Best Supporting Actor. This is the role he's in. Yeah. And then other celebrities are just all coming out, just being like, it is bananas. Well, our silly little poll, was it Rob?
Starting point is 00:35:25 72% of people believed there was a snub for the picture and the lead actress. 28% said no. Here's some feedback. Emma said, unpopular opinion,
Starting point is 00:35:33 I'm sure, but as much as I enjoyed Barbie for the fun, light-hearted movie it was, I don't feel that anyone in it gave Academy Award winning performances. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:35:42 I felt that about Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook. I thought the performance was fine. But not Oscar. Just while we're at it. Wow. Women tearing down women.
Starting point is 00:35:50 And Oscar for the set design because that was incredible. The storyline was absolute rubbish. The first half was brilliant, then it all went to pieces. Joanna. When it got serious, Joanna was out. You've got a grumpy Joanna in our hands here. Lisa. Grumpy Lisa. Grumpy Lisa?
Starting point is 00:36:05 Grumpy Lisa. I don't know. Grumpy Lisa checking in. Yesterday you called another Lisa grumpy Lisa. It was not me. Very rude. Made me grumpy. Oh my God, now she's grumpy that we mis-
Starting point is 00:36:18 Mis-Lisa'd. We mis-Lisa'd. I haven't seen Barbie and I don't care. So thanks for your feedback. That is grumpy. I love grumpy Lisa. Grumpy Lisa, her profile picture is an animal. Yep. Okay, well, don't.
Starting point is 00:36:30 That's how I've got to remember that that's Grumpy Lisa. Right. Yeah. Lucy said, director, yes. Acting, no. Okay. Mason said, not all heroes wear capes and not all good movies get an Oscar. That's true.
Starting point is 00:36:44 I've been waiting for ages. Yeah, that's true. Andrea said, the irony that Ryan Gosling's been nominated for his role of Ken is wild to me. Julie, I mean, the fact the male in the film got a nod for his acting in the song, because that's right, Billie Eilish's song got nominated. Yeah. But other than America, all the women pretty much got snubbed. Ryan was great, but it wasn't the showstopper of the movie.
Starting point is 00:37:07 It's just typical, misogynistic Oscars. Wow. Adam said, I hope so. It was overhyped nonsense. Hardly Oscar worthy. No one was saying Happy Gilmore was snubbed back in the day, and that's a way better movie.
Starting point is 00:37:20 That is a great movie. He does make a point there. You can't argue with that. That's a great movie. Shooter make a point there. You can't argue with that. That's a great movie. Shooter McGavin should have got best supporting. 19 minutes away from eight. Next on the show, it's time for another chapter of Hayley's Horny Book Club. Play ZM's Fletchford and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Hayley's Horny Book Club. Oh, my God. Okay. Now, if those, if you've missed the first chapter or first episode of Hayley's Horny Book Club,
Starting point is 00:37:52 this has come about. Because I, like many girls on TikTok, have become obsessed with smut. Reading smut, listening to smut,
Starting point is 00:38:03 being part of smutty Facebook groups. Last, the first episode of Hayley's Horny Book Club I read you a little tease of Twisted Lies
Starting point is 00:38:14 by Anna Huang. I finished the book. It's in the top 100 books. Yeah. So, you know, you're not alone reading this. I'm not alone.
Starting point is 00:38:23 I'm not, it wasn't my favourite book. Right. Would you read that on like public transport? 100%. Did you finish that book? Yeah. It would take me a year to read that.
Starting point is 00:38:31 It's so thick. How many pages is that? It's a fat book. 500? 559. What? Where do you find the time to read? Once I start, I find it really hard to stop.
Starting point is 00:38:42 So I go through chunks. Me too. Are we still talking about reading? Hey-o! Hey-o! Hello! Now, obviously, um, I've, what have I listened to now? I'm finishing one that's called, um, Dante, and it sucks.
Starting point is 00:38:57 It's written so badly. Why don't you tell everyone why it sucks? Because it leaves out all the best bits. They just wake up. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, that's a different one. Oh, okay. So Dante, zero plot, all spice.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Okay. Akatar, A Court of Thorns and Roses, which is like huge on TikTok. I was like, I'll read this. They're making it into a TV show. It's all like fairies and, come to me, Pharaoh, he said in the court of... And it's a big, it's very nerdy.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Yeah. Not enough sex in it for me. Right. At all. At all, right. They did one bit, they were about to make love and I was like, here we go. Flicking the pages, here we go. And then it was like, I woke up the next morning and I was like, what do you mean you woke up the next morning? Put the pee in the feed.
Starting point is 00:39:40 Well, they left out a few pages. I know, I was like, this is what I'm here for. Yeah. And I'm about to finish it and I'm just, I I know. I was like, this is what I'm here for. Yeah. And I'm about to finish it and I'm just, I'm upset. Anyway, I'm chewing through this stuff. The anatomy of fairies in this book, are they just like humans with wings? They've got like wings and they've got like masks and stuff and they've been cursed. Yeah, I'm not talking about their wings. I'm talking about the...
Starting point is 00:39:58 No, they've got... The upstairs and the downstairs. They've got bits. Just standard bits. Yeah, but they don't describe it enough in that book. I feel like I was led down a very long path. I want to know the anatomy of a fairy. They've got bits. Just standard bits. Yeah, but they don't describe it enough in that book. I feel like I was led down a very long path. Yeah, I want to know the anatomy of the fairy. I feel like you don't want to have that described to me.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah, I know. Maybe they left it out for good reason. You're so vanilla. Yeah. We'll tell you who's not vanilla is Carwen. I recommended a book to her. And it's going to question your feminism, isn't it? Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Yeah. She says, it's quite violent. She said, I didn't expect so much murder straight out the gate. Yeah, like the first three pages. Is this the mafia one? No, no, no, that's Dante. This is called The Ritual about a secret society at a very high end university. Anyway. So a little bit salt burnish, maybe.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Yeah, okay. But it'll confuse your morals. What I thought I'd do today to help people if they want to get into the world of reading this smart is... Does it have a better genre name? It's smart. There's no other way for it. Romance?
Starting point is 00:41:01 Oh, romance. Okay, yeah, right. Erotica? Yeah. They use all these terms. So you could be part of a group like I am. I'm in a group called The Smut Hood. And people can come on.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Is that The Smut Hood of the travelling pants? No, no. It's different. We don't share. What do you want to be wearing those pants? Yeah. But like people can come on and ask for Rex recommendations. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:24 And often they'll use codes for things that they want to have in it. Okay. And sometimes I read them, I'm like, what? Okay, I've been on a major M.M. kick lately. I want books with sports and or dollar sound, dollar sign, and I won't say the rest of it because you'll give it away, can be M.M. or M.M. plus extra bonus points if it's DD slash LG. What does all of this mean?
Starting point is 00:41:51 So, MM is male, male, just to kick things off nice and easy. Right, okay. So, that's your homosexual reads. Right. DD is Daddy Dom. Okay. I won't say LG because it's a little inappropriate for the radio. Somebody has just said, I'm glad it's missing bits. That's the Court of Thorns and Roses.
Starting point is 00:42:11 They said there's 13-year-olds reading it. Now, is that appropriate? Yeah, that book would be fine. Okay, that would be fine. It's romance. It's romance. Yeah. So I kept seeing a few of them and I was like, I want to figure them out.
Starting point is 00:42:22 People saying like, here's a book recommendation. I know it's YA. YA. Let's guess, Vaughn. Young Adult. I want to figure them out. Okay. People saying like here's a book recommendation I know it's YA. YA. Let's guess Vaughan. Young Adult. Young Adult. Oh okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:29 So it's basically saying like it's not a lot of spice in here. Okay. So Hunger Games were Young Adult. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:37 RH. Right Handed. You'll never get I want to read a story about a man who's right handed. Keep those disgusting lefties away from me. He rubbed his right hand up my thigh.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Oh, that's my stuff. He was ambidextrous. No, no. He tucked my hair behind my ear with his left hand. No, I don't want to read this book. No, Reverse Harem, a romance featuring one woman with many male love interests. Somebody messaged in about one of them.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Okay. Yeah. Somebody messaged in about one of them. Okay. Yeah. Somebody messaged in about one of them. Where did that message go? Now it's been referred to as why choose. So people say like, you often get a book and it'll be like, here's all the tropes, kinks and triggers. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:18 And then you can kind of go like, yeah, I'm cool with all of these. Okay, so people are just messaging in. Book Rex, DNF. Down, no. Did not finish. Oh, okay. So they'll be like, got to this, DNF. Okay, did not finish.
Starting point is 00:43:34 It wasn't, alright. DNQ, did not qualify. Purple Prose, which is like very ornate language. For example, here's an example. He gloried in his triumph as they were dissolved in a mutual fire which died slowly, leaving them cinders on the heart of love. I like that.
Starting point is 00:43:56 That's nice, actually. That's very nice. F2L, friends to lovers. Okay. So you're like, that's your life. Oh, my God, we took things too far. Out of the friend zone. MMC, FMC, that's a really common one,
Starting point is 00:44:09 which is male main character or female main character. Dual POV, which is just basically like you hear from the man, then you hear from the woman, it goes back and forth. And sometimes you'll just get a T. And that means there are subjects in there. Not tits. Okay. Trigger.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Taboo. There is stuff in here that will rock you to your core. Wild. This is wild. I recommend if you want to read more and learn more or get recommendations join a Facebook group. Can you please repeat the name of the book that Hayley recommended to Carmen because my stupid
Starting point is 00:44:42 toddler asked me a dumb question in the middle of you saying it. How aggressive. Shut up kids! a dumb question in the middle of you saying it. That's very, how aggressive that is. Shut up, kids. Christ, mummy needs the name of her mummy porn. I feel, it will shock you, listener. It's called the ritual. It'll shock you.
Starting point is 00:44:55 The ritual. Now, you joined a Facebook group. There are lots of Facebook groups that recommend and use this lingo that you've just given us. I feel like you need your own. I was just about to say this. Should I've just given us. I feel like you need your own. I was just about to say this. Should I do my own one?
Starting point is 00:45:07 I feel like you should. Will people join it? Because I don't want to be one of those people that starts a group and then no one joins. It's just eight of us being like, how good was the ritual? Bloody hell had a cold shower after that one. Okay, maybe I'll start my own Facebook. Maybe, yeah, okay. Little book club.
Starting point is 00:45:24 Maybe for the next episode you can launch. Hayley's Horny Book Club. Now I actually saw this on X Twitter. Yep. Which is, I just wanted to do a little PSA that that's still going. That's, Twitter is now X is still going. Yeah, I've deleted it off my phone, but I stumbled across this. Right.
Starting point is 00:45:47 And it's been doing the rounds. It's about two cyclists, and they were both on the same team for United Arab Emirates. Right. And they have been, like, dominating the competition, all these races, and this was a race. It was in Slovenia. The Tour of Slovenia was the race.
Starting point is 00:46:09 This is like road cycling. Yeah, like the Tour de France. And they've been going for ages and ages and ages and ages. And they were like towards the end, miles ahead of the competition, these two, same team. So instead of racing each other, they had a little chat and then they did a paper scissors rock and whoever won got to cross the finish line first and be the winner of the tour in Slovenia. And everyone was like loving it because- But you'd want to race, right? But they had been racing this whole time,
Starting point is 00:46:39 but they were just literally side by side and they just went, this is a fun way to do it. Don't motor racing do this as well? Like they choose who in the team is going to win? Yeah, there's always the primary driver. Yeah. And the second one can sometimes... And the second one gets a bit itchy about it. Yeah. And snitchy
Starting point is 00:46:56 and is just like, nah. And then Mercedes team leader's like, let him win and he's like, nah. Yeah. Why do they do that though? Because the top dog needs to win. So they said in the end, the goal is to deliver your team leader across the first place. So the second place wins, the team gets points, but they want to win the team and the driver.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Yeah. That's a more prestigious thing, right? So they want both. So if the second guy wins, sure, the team gets the point, but their lead driver doesn't. In this case, they had a team leader and point, but their lead driver doesn't. Yeah, so in that case, in this case, they had a team leader
Starting point is 00:47:27 and the guy's sort of known as a support guy, but the guy was so good, he'd kept up with him the whole way. That's why the leader guy was like, well, should we bloody give you a shot at, you know, even though that's not the plan for the team. Right.
Starting point is 00:47:38 And then the secondary rider was the one who won the Papers, Scissors, Rock and he took the title. Oh, I would have been like, whenever I did this with my brother growing up, it'd be like, best of three. Best of three, best of five. If you lose, best of five. Keep going, best of nine, best of 21.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Oh, whoops, I crossed the finish line. There you go. And you're still losing. Anyway, we want to know what was decided by Paper Scissors Rock. What important thing? Yeah, like what's the big thing that you just went Paper Scissors Rock? Not who's sitting in the front seat. No, no, no, no, I'm talking
Starting point is 00:48:06 like do we have a baby? Paper scissors, rock. Should we have a baby? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nope. That seems like quite a Yeah, yeah, quite a big decision. Just to leave to paper scissors, rock. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love it when you change the rules.
Starting point is 00:48:21 You go, paper scissors, rock, and you win it, and you're like, no, no, no, winner decides, you know, you like change the thing, being like, no, the you win it. And you're like, no, no, no, winner decides. You know, you change the thing, being like, no, the loser decides. That's what we said. Because you won. So I get to go first. Yeah. I don't know, but just maybe there was a major decision.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Maybe where are we going on holiday this year? Yeah, should we move cities? Oh, where in Australia should I move to? Yeah, if I win, we're going to Darwin. If you win, we're going to Melbourne. If you win, we're going to Melbourne. Very different. Here we go. If Darwin wins, you're doing best of three.
Starting point is 00:48:48 You're doing best of three. Yeah, that's the way you lose the first one. Best of 11. Well, definitely best of three. Okay, so what important decisions or important things have been decided with Paper, Scissors, Rock? Are we going to do heads or tails as well? No, Paper, Scissors, Rock.
Starting point is 00:49:04 Or the flip of a coin? Wow, she's very, very quick to say no to that. I mean, these are all decision-making games, aren't they? Okay, paper, scissors, rock. If I win, we just do paper, scissors, rock. If you win, we include flip a coin. Okay, I love this. Okay, ready?
Starting point is 00:49:19 One, two, three. They both went paper. They both did paper. I'll commentate. Paper, scissors, rock. Fletch has gone They both did paper. I'll commentate. Paper, scissors, rock. Fletcher's gone rock. Hayley's gone scissors. Fletcher's the winner.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Best of three? No. Do you know what? You did paper and I usually do scissors because we all know that bisexuals always do scissors. I don't know if that's a thing. They do. We tested it.
Starting point is 00:49:38 We tested it at a Christmas party. It worked. Okay, so what important decision has been made with a coin toss or with Paper Scissors Rock? Two cyclists decided at the finish line who would win the race using the simple and handy tool of Paper Scissors Rock. The time-honoured tradition. Time-honoured tradition. So we wanted to know what was decided using Paper Scissors Rock, and we have included a coin toss in there as well.
Starting point is 00:50:02 After I won the right to do that with a game of Paper, Scissors, Rock. I mean, it's just all put together. Steph, you made an important life choice decision with Paper, Scissors, Rock. I did. I did. I did. Now, what was it?

Starting point is 00:50:30 You lost. K-A-T-I-E. Oh, Katie. Katie. I think you lost because the way you said it, you sort of spat out the name. Or do you hate your daughter? Yeah, I lost.
Starting point is 00:50:39 What did you want? I wanted either Valerie or Poppy. Oh, I love both of those names. Poppy's very cute. What? Wow, but not a fan of Valerie. You didn't like Valerie. I like Valerie.
Starting point is 00:50:52 Not since I was beaten in the Shotput finals by Valerie. Yes, she was unbeatable. I know you've never forgiven her. I've never forgiven her. It's the same reason why I couldn't call my oldest daughter Beatrice Farmer winner. Yeah, no. Game beat me in Shotput.
Starting point is 00:51:06 Good sort of historic New Zealand athletics reference there, Paul. Really good, solid references. Thanks, everybody. Did one of your names make it to the middle name status? My own middle name made it to the middle name. So you've got something in there. Sort of a traditional middle name. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Yeah, the X just would not let me have one of my names, and Katie was the only name that we both agreed on. Oh, you say X there. Yeah. Yes, I did. Sort of written on the wall there for a while, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you break up with the Papers, Scissors, Rock?
Starting point is 00:51:38 Should we stay together? Or give it another go? Oh, no, we didn't need that. I love you, Steph Steph, thanks for your call Some messages in I played Paper, Scissors, Rock with my mum To decide if I should break up with my toxic boyfriend
Starting point is 00:51:51 She won, and I tell you what, she was right Looking back on it now Mums often are, aren't they? So the mum was like, you should do it Yeah, or Paper, Scissors, Rock I flipped a coin between a nursing degree Or a law degree Five and a half
Starting point is 00:52:06 years of university later and I've been a family court lawyer for two years. Oh, nice. Yeah. My fiance and I did paper scissors rock with another couple for the wedding venue for that specific date. Whoa! And we won. That'd be so livid. That'd be so livid.
Starting point is 00:52:21 My mum and dad decided to sell their house on a coin toss. Okay. Are we going to sell it or are we going to stay? Coin toss time. Paper scissors rock on who's going to be the sperm donor for our baby that we're going to have to surrogate. Oh, I feel like that's like you've got to look at the person and be like. Oh, I know.
Starting point is 00:52:37 I was talking to one of my friends who is in a same-sex relationship, and she said that when they chose their sperm donor, it was all locked in and then her wife was pregnant and then they were all hanging out together and he put on a hat and was like oh no, I've got like a massive head. I've got like an XL and the wives just
Starting point is 00:52:55 looked at each other like stuff to know and then at the birth shredded. Tatters. See, this is why you don't leave it to a coin toss or a paper scissors birth, shredded. Tatters. This is why you don't leave it to a coin toss or a paper scissors rock. I'm just saying, look at the size of the head of the donor.
Starting point is 00:53:13 I'm a massive donor. I know you do, yeah. And my children have pretty big heads, but they didn't at time of birth. Right. Well, one was premature and one was C-section. And honestly, thank God. Do you know what, actually? It's probably those two births saved it. For the best. I coin tossed to decide between two schools to decide where to go,
Starting point is 00:53:33 which school I was going to go to. Oh. My best thing I did, paper scissors rock, for who got to approach a guy we both found hot at the bar. I'd love to know how that worked out, actually. Oh, yeah. He's mine. Paper scissors rock for the loser, and the loser had to get love to know how that worked out, actually. Oh, yeah. He's mine. Paper, scissors, rock for the loser.
Starting point is 00:53:46 And the loser had to get the words your mum tattooed on their butt. Thank God I didn't lose. The next day, sober and true to her words, she got those words tattooed on her butt. Oh, no. My husband and I flipped a coin for our son's name when he was born because we couldn't decide.
Starting point is 00:54:00 Flipped it on the hospital bed after he cut the umbilical cord. And what did they go with? What were the two options? I don't know. I need to know. He said it was called like Archer and the other one was like Keith. And you're like oh my god. Maybe Keith I could go
Starting point is 00:54:15 baby. Oh my god. You could almost do Keith again now. My wife and I done paper scissors rock on whether we should get married. Obviously I lost. So what do you mean? It's gotta be a good thing to do. I like, I don't whether we should get married. Obviously, I lost. So what do you mean? It's got to be a good thing to do, eh? Like, I don't really want to get married.
Starting point is 00:54:29 We should Paper Scissors Rock for it. Like, do you want to be married to the person that didn't really want to be married and then was happy to get married if they lost the game of chance? But maybe they want to be with him, but just not the whole wedding palaver. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Speaking on behalf of someone who wants to be with me, but just not the whole wedding palaver. Play. ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day are toadstools called toadstools? That is mushroom week and a toadstool is bingo. Dude. Wow.
Starting point is 00:55:22 Mind blowing. There must have been more to it Holy shit, what? So toadstools are called toadstools because Are you running dry hogs? You bet And middle, like oldie times, middle aged England Vaughan
Starting point is 00:55:38 Medieval times Off air, you have told us far more interesting facts about mushrooms That you haven't shared with the nation yet. And this is your fact of the day, is that toadstools are called toadstools because toads sit on them like stools. No, toads have never sat on them like stools. There's never been a photo of a toad sitting on a toadstool.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Don't Google it. Naturally, hundreds of photos. Those are AIs. No, they're not. That's a frog. That top one's not even a toad. This is literally, there are stock images of toads on my... Fakes.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Not fakes. Oh, deep fakes. You'll believe anything, man. Suppose you believe we've been to the moon. Consider my mind blind. Toadstools are called toadstools because they look like a toad has sat on them, a toad has sat on them and given them their little warts. Infected the toadstool with warts and toadstools were poisonous
Starting point is 00:56:30 and so were toads. So they believe that the toads made the toadstools poisonous. And now I've said toad so many times, no sense left in the word. I'm so lost. It's jumbled. So yeah, toadstools are called toadstools. How are they different than a mushroom? They're not. You wouldn't eat them though, toadstools How are they different Than a mushroom? They're not
Starting point is 00:56:45 You wouldn't eat them though Toadstools No But they're not Not all toadstools Are poisonous But don't eat them Right
Starting point is 00:56:54 Yeah Right Because remember that chick Made that bloody Beef Wellington That's right In Australia Yeah that's right

Killed a whole bunch of mushrooms. That's right. Unless we forget. Yeah, that's right. That happened at the end of last year. Yeah, it did. What? Yeah, well, this is a fact for you.
Starting point is 00:57:10 Could have talked about those mushrooms. But it's all right. We're good. It's good. Well, she might have done toadstools. She might have been like, that looks like the perfect posse for a toad to sit. Yeah. Tell you what, I'm looking forward to tomorrow's fact of mushrooms to wrap up.
Starting point is 00:57:21 Mushroom week. Mushroom week. Yeah, it's been a real struggle for you, hasn't it? Yeah, I honestly thought mushroom Week was going to be so easy because that's such a fascinating thing. Yeah. It's been harder than I imagined. So today's fact of the day is toadstools are called toadstools
Starting point is 00:57:37 because it is believed that toads had sat on them, given them the warty appearance, but also the perfect place for a toad to sit. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM. I went to the dentist yesterday. And actually, good morning to my dentist, because I know you'll be listening.
Starting point is 00:58:15 They listened to ZM. Sat down. Heard Georgia's beautiful voice. Yeah, lovely. Loved it. Loved music. Loved the laughter. It's just a great station.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Now, I went to the dentist because I chipped my tooth again, it's the same chip and because it was a small chip, you know like it's prone to a break, I had this amber necklace on and it's like a rock like that encased in silver, is this the one you recharge
Starting point is 00:58:39 and so you get the energy from it? Yeah it heals like literally all my ailments PCOS? Yeah it's gone and so you get the energy from it. Yeah. It heals like literally all my ailments. Yeah. PCOS? Yeah, it's gone. Just like that? When I'm wearing it. Wow, amazing. Actually, I should put it back on.
Starting point is 00:58:49 I'm not wearing it at the moment. That's why I'm getting the beard. I digress. So I was at the gym on a bench and I bent down to pick up the heavy weights like that and the necklace literally went, and like whacked on my tooth. Very brittle teeth.
Starting point is 00:59:03 How soft are your teeth? So soft. Like this happens all the time. Very brittle teeth. How soft are your teeth? So soft. Like this happens all the time. So brittle. I chip my teeth all the time. You might need a permanent like mouth guard. I know. We went at night because I grind my teeth
Starting point is 00:59:14 and I've often woken up with like chunks of teeth in my mouth. Yeah. And I'm like, wow, just ate my teeth off. Gotta love a bit of anxiety. Makes me feel a little bit sick. Yeah, it's awful, isn't it? Anyway, yesterday I was one minute late, one minute and 27 seconds,
Starting point is 00:59:28 which I pointed out to the receptionist. I was like, I apologise for being one minute and 27 seconds late. I got every red light. And I was busting to wee. So I was like, I'm gonna quickly get a wee, and then we're good to fix the tooth. And they were like, absolutely fine. And I went into the bathroom, did my wees,
Starting point is 00:59:42 well hydrated, I was pleased with the colour. I'm always pleased with the colour too. Sometimes I'm like, well, that's a bit yellow. Sometimes you're like far out. Yeah, you're like, last night was a lot. It's like miso soup. Do you have the seaweed floaties as well? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Where does that come from? And how it sort of spirals like a broth. And a little chunk of, what's that, tofu? Don't say chunk. Don't say chunk of tofu. That's when you've got to, in fact, I might just take this moment. Just to hydrate. We're just taking a hydration break.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Yeah, I'm using my gulp hole there. And you're getting lip wrinkles. I can see them. Jesus, don't say gulp hole when I'm drinking. I'm off to Casey Clinic after this. I might get them to address the lips. Yeah. Shall I get fillers? Anyway. Anyway, so I went to the bathroom, did my
Starting point is 01:00:31 wheeze, happy with the colour, and then I went to the sink to wash my hands because I'm a hero. And I washed my hands like this, and then I always like to give myself a little look. Boom! Check out the dumper. One of the best parts about me. And saw on my arse, like right at the back, I was wearing white shorts with a green check on them,
Starting point is 01:00:50 so quite light, a big brown smear. Now my first thought was, did I shit myself and not notice? And the answer was, we had a meeting yesterday and because I slept in on Tuesday morning and arrived late to work, I bought a couple of choccy slices for the team to have at the meeting.
Starting point is 01:01:12 I spent $20 on those slices and we all just looked at them. I ate one. I ate my share. No, the girlies did eat them, but only because you peer pressured them into it because of the cost of the slice. Did you eat them? Yes.
Starting point is 01:01:23 How many bits? And we were always going to eat them. Yeah. That meeting went for an hour and 15 minutes, by the way. But we were talking in the meeting so we couldn't be like, gobbing and oh, sorry. Ma'am, I will remind you that Lumino dentists are listening to this professional
Starting point is 01:01:42 broadcast. We apologise, Lumino. They can't be having you talking about gobbing in meetings. Well, you've just said it again, Vaughan. We apologise. And so it was like chocolate slice. It was chocolate. It was fudge brownie
Starting point is 01:01:52 or something, wasn't it? Yeah, because I didn't have any, I didn't have any slice because I was off to the dentist and I didn't want chocolate in my teeth. But I did pick off, there was a little cube
Starting point is 01:02:00 of chocolate. Yeah. Then I went to pick off and it crumbled because it had been baked. Yeah. And I must have sat, have crumbled onto the seat and then smeared around on it.
Starting point is 01:02:10 So then I was like, oh my god, everyone's going to think I've shat myself. It's right on me tush. So then I did that thing. I'm already late. Now I'm more than one minute and 27 seconds late to my appointment. I did that. I got some paper towels and wet it and I tried to rub it and it just made the brown go spread, spread, spread, spread, spread. So now not only is it brown, it's brown and wet it and they tried to rub it and it just made the brown go spread, spread, spread, spread, spread.
Starting point is 01:02:28 So now not only is it brown, it's brown and wet. Yeah. And they don't have hand dryers. They've only got paper towels. Okay. And so now it looks like you've had an accident. A big liquid accident. Smeary poop accident.
Starting point is 01:02:39 So how did you kind of go into the team? Because it's a high-waisted short and I had a t-shirt on. So I untucked it. So the fashion game's gone. And I tried to pull my t-shirt down as low as I could. Because I also had to go to the mall after this, so I was in these shorts for a while. Had it dried by the time you went to the mall?
Starting point is 01:02:56 It had dried but it was still brown, I didn't get the stain out. So now it's crusty. Anyway, absolute disaster. And for anyone that did see me in the mall, at the dentist, wherever I went, to the cobblers, I did not shit myself.
Starting point is 01:03:12 Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. If you are a mess of a human being and you have 60,000 photos. I've literally got 59,000 or something. Well, I am explaining, I'm describing you and many people out there. If you're a mess of a person and you have tens of thousands of photos on your camera roll,
Starting point is 01:03:33 just every day adding more than this app could be for you. Because, Carween, you have been influenced by TikTok and there is a new app which people are loving at the moment. Oh, my God. I'm obsessed with it. It's become a game for me as well. Oh my gosh. So it's called Swipe Wipe. Not loving the name to be honest. Swipe Wipe. Swipe Wipe. But basically
Starting point is 01:03:54 it is Tinder for your camera roll. So it like breaks down every month of every year into a little category. You click on it and then it shows you all your photos and you can swipe left to delete it, right to keep it. But you still got to go through 60,000 of them.
Starting point is 01:04:11 Yes, but because it's by month, so it says in January 2019, I took 88 photos. So I've only got to go through 88. And then you complete it and it gives you a little stats. It's like you saved this many gigs and you deleted this many. This is tickling me. It's like a little game. It's like you saved this many gigs and you deleted this many. This is tickling me. Yeah. It's like a little game.
Starting point is 01:04:28 It's like the fun of Tinder. Especially if you're one of those people that's pushing the limit of their phone capacity or their cloud capacity. Yeah. And you're like, I don't want to pay extra. I pay extra. Yeah, just keep paying more. I keep paying more and more and more. This would be a good game,
Starting point is 01:04:45 like when you were obviously late to the dentist yesterday, and apologies again to Lumino Mount Hayden for your tardiness. Well, I was one minute and 27 seconds late. But say you were like five minutes early for an appointment, you could just swipe a month and get rid of all your photos. Exactly, that's what I've been doing. When I'm watching Love Island and it's that bit where they're just chatting and you're like, okay, this is filler, I'm swiping.
Starting point is 01:05:04 There's a lot of filler in there. You can do on this day. So technically if you just did on this day every day for a year, you'd have taken care of everything. So the first three days are free and then you pay $7 a month. So I'm trying to get through everything in a month and I've already deleted 4,300 photos. I literally was just about to download it
Starting point is 01:05:25 but I can't be paying for the apps. I can't be paying. Wait, so you've got a month or three days to go through your whole phone if you don't want to pay? Three days free.
Starting point is 01:05:34 Okay. You could do it in three days. I kind of, that's what I tried to do. I go all the way back to 2016. Although,
Starting point is 01:05:41 this is why. Oh, there's a long weekend coming up. Mine's been to 2005. This is why. Do you a long weekend coming up. Mine's back to 2005. This is wild. You know you can just open your camera roll, select, and then just use your finger to select multiple.
Starting point is 01:05:50 Yes, but also if you're going into them, you have to click into it and then you click edit or the triple dots and then you click delete. Whereas this one, swipe, swipe, swipe. Okay. Yeah, I like it. It's kind of gamifying organizing your phone.
Starting point is 01:06:04 Yeah. Okay, swipe, wipe. I'm into it it. It's kind of gamifying organizing your phone. Yeah. Okay, swipe wipe. I'm into it. If that's a bit of you and you've got like tens of thousands of photos on your phone. Oh, I'm busting for a wheeze after that podcast. I'll tell you. It's a podcast. You are allowed to listen to it while you're wheezing.
Starting point is 01:06:22 There's no rules on when and where you're allowed to listen to a podcast. It just says here I'm busting for a wheeze. I read it, okay? I read it. Give us a review.
