I don't know what you're talking about. Are you alright, darling? I'm here and the show's starting and what a great day. Just literally running through the door. Ten minutes to six, Hayley and I were like, where's Vaughn? He's never usually this late. Fine, Maya, you were two hours ago. Yeah.

And that indicates a dead battery. Dead, dead, dead battery. Drained. Did you brown noise all night? Not off the phone, off the Alexa. Eyebrow noise off the Alexa now. Eyebrow, I noise all night not off the phone off the Alexa I brown noise off the Alexa now

I raw dog brown noise off the phone and I've had this has happened to me before and I brown noise the battery away wasn't charging and then it doesn't go off

yeah and then I woke up and I was like I don't know what time it is tapped the phone nothing that's the piss and then heard birds chirping

I was like, huh. Grab my watch from the other side of the room. And it said 5.30. I was like, wow. So I'm going to smell today. No D.O.? No shower. Why don't you shower in the mornings?

This is why he's late. He showers in the mornings. You just proved to yourself today. Dude, I did Simeon Brown speed to get here in the chimney. It's screaming out there on the side of the road. I didn't even put it in the garage due to the fact it's so hot and there's a cool down in the open space. Oh, my God.

Well, coming up on the show, the top six, we need a new police commissioner. Yeah, Costa's gone. I'll have the top six suggestions for a new police commish. Okay, that's coming up soon in the top six. But next on the show, we want to talk about pre-trip paranoia, holiday paranoia.

There might be a bit of this because there'll be a lot of families going away. When's school holidays next week? You've got to be a busy day at airports around the country on Friday. Yeah. Which is when I'm going home to New Plymouth. Good, good to know. Get there early.

Yes. And be kind and be patient with the people at the airport. Even if they make you take off your Chuck Taylors because somehow I've got a knife

in my canvas shoe because it's above the ankle. Same as like, oh, it might as well be a military combat boot. But be kind to them. They're doing their job. Play ZM's

Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. So light outside. Daylight savings. So light. Daylight savings this weekend. Is it? Bring on summer. It is, right?

Yes. Okay, good. I've been wearing shorts at home every day. I get home and I don't put my track pants on. Some is coming. Some is coming. Some little shorties. There's been a big study

done with Americans when it comes to holidaying. There'll be maybe a few people taken off on Fridays, we mentioned, school holidays. Yeah. People go away. People do go away in the school holidays. That's why it's so much more expensive to go away in the school holidays. My parents used to just send us away. Yeah, or

like just take your kids out of school when it's not school holidays. Yes, my parents also did that. Because the flights aren't like three times as much. I wanted to go down to Wellington this weekend to go to WOW, World of Wearable Arts. Oh, yeah. Launching this weekend. And I looked at flights.

Not possible, not possible. Flights to sort of an event that only really rich people ever give a shit about are expensive yeah wow yeah

crazy I was just gonna chuck a trash bag on at home and roll it around in glitter and then go for a walk how dare you

this is art I know I know it's far more than I'm capable of it is pretty amazing but it's not exactly a low decil

school event is it no no I can't imagine anyone in Morrisville being like, saddle up the oxen. We're going to go to wow. So a study's been done in America

and just basically about people's organisation and... You're organised when you travel. I'm very organised, but about people's pre-trip paranoia and everything they have to get done before they go on holiday and a lot of a lot of americans are in this uh study just paralyzed with fear and just so much to organize so much to do i'm i love to be organized like i think you do the same like i'll just chuck a suitcase on the floor and the weeks before i'll just i need that i'll, I'll chuck that in now. And then you cull. Yes and then you go through everything and yeah. My mum taught me that because they

go to, speaking of you know, a little bit of money and some privilege. Yeah. My parents do travel to Italy every year, they live there half the year. They do. My mum does it for like months in advance. She'll put out two big suitcases and then anytime she sees something in her wardrobe or something around the house that she's like, oh that'll

be good in Italy. Yeah. Just chucks it in. But there's things like... Is it an excitement thing? Like, is it building the excitement to go on holiday? Yeah. I feel like anxiety and excitement sometimes have a little crossover.

Yeah. It's like pleasure and pain. They're right next to each other in the brain. Yeah, especially for you. Well, it does. It keeps things exciting because, yeah, it might be two months from your holiday, but you're like, I'll just organise this now.

Oh, that's right. I'm going away. And get ready. But, yeah, a lot of people leave last-minute shopping or shopping till the last minute. Things like cleaning the house, unplugging appliances, lights on timers. Do you do any of that? No. Do you?

Here was something interesting they found. One of the top reasons for people having a delay, like maybe going to the airport or going away on vacation, was needing to recheck they to actually lock the front door. 40% of people have had an issue with that that they polled. And then they even found one in 10 people came back from vacation to find the front door unlocked. Like they hadn't even locked it because they'd been in such a rush to leave. Are they all called Sade, my wife, as well?

Oh, my God. Jesus. When I get home and the door's unlocked, as well? Oh, my God. Jesus. When I get home and the door's unlocked, I'm like, are we just not locking doors? You need one of those, like, automatic app locks that does it automatically. So we've got this one step down. When you walk out, all you have to do is put your palm on it

and it goes and locks. Oh, yeah, yeah. Sometimes the ranch light is open. Sometimes it's open a little bit. Ajar. The back ranch light is open ajar. Yeah. Aaron does this. Like, lock, pull, pull, pull, hand away, hand back on, pull, pull, pull.

Like to check. It's the most painful thing to watch. But at least you know the house is locked. I think it's locked, dude. Yeah. It's locked. So he's like the opposite of Sade. He's the opposite of Sade.

They need each other. Right. I've said it before. They should get together and we should. And we'll just have fun and they can just drive each other nuts. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah.

This is the Top Six. That's you, Vaughn. Just got an offer at a social media collab with a sunscreen. I just don't think this email was for me. It's for a woman

who lives in Australia. Unless they've just done the old copy paste and the email was... Yeah, they might have done that. Well, I mean, maybe they do want to

see you in your bikini slathering on some SPF 30. On your tartars. I don't think they do. I don't think they do. Top six hopefuls for the next police commissioner. Andrew Costa has quit. Do you think like

pre-pandemics like most people knew even who the police commissioner was? I feel like you just always see him. You just always see him on the news. Yeah. When there's been something terrible or something big. He was on the news last night talking about it. He said his proudest moment was dealing with the Wellington protests.

Oh, yeah. And he started four days into the first COVID lockdown. That was when he started. Oh, God. Harrowing journey. Yeah. So he's had a good period of New Zealand there. I forgot about the Wellington protests.

That was insane. I did too. And I saw it on the news and it made me chuckle. That was so idiotic. They were lighting tents on fire and throwing bricks at police. Yeah, throwing the bricks. Shit really got out of control. It was like an anchorman. That was so idiotic. They were lighting tents on fire and throwing bricks at police. Shit really got out of control. It was like an anchorman. That escalated

quickly. And then remember Trevor Mallard turned on the sprinklers. Yes. And they didn't like that. They did not like that. Because the water had the vaccine. So they started playing music as well. Because the water had the vaccine in it. Yeah. Always fluoride. Fluoride and vaccine. Fluoridated? Yeah. It was fluoridated. Fluoride and vaccine. What do they call it?

Fluoridated? Yeah. Fluoridated. What is that? Right. Fluoridated. Fluoridated. Fluoridinated.

Fluoridated, yeah. And yeah, it had the chips in it. It had all the chips. Loaded up with it. Miniature chips. Here are my top six picks for the next police commissioner. Okay. Number six, Commissioner Gordon from Batman.

Because Batman will come. Are you allowed to be a police commissioner in a different jurisdiction? In a whole new country? He'll retire from Gotham, which let's just say after you've run Gotham, New Zealand would be an absolute piece of cake. Have you seen how many supervillains Gotham has? Gotham's a mess. He would have cleared those parliament lawns in a second.

Dude, what do you want of? Number five on the list of the top six hopefuls for the next police commissioner, Robocop. Yeah, nice. Robocop would be good. Yeah. Dude, what do you want of? Number five on the list of the top six hopefuls for the next police commissioner. Robocop. Yeah, nice. Robocop would be good. Yeah. And he'd wear 24 hours because he's a robo. Yeah. No holidays. Are you allowed to call them robos? Oh, I don't, I'm not even in the 80s when the movie came out, you were

allowed to call them robos. Yeah, I think you just used the full name. Robosexuals. Okay, I apologise to any robo listeners. You've said it again. Robosexual listeners. Sorry, I apologise to any robo listeners. You've said it again. Robosexual listeners. Sorry, robosexual listeners. Number four on the list of the top six hopefuls for the next police commissioner, Chief Wiggum from the Simpsons.

Yeah, nice. That was really good. No, I couldn't have said anything. It was just... Number three on the list of the top six picks for the next police commish, Walker, Texas Ranger. Oh, yeah. Chuck Norris himself.

Yeah, but Chuck Norris is like a right one. He's old now. Yeah, he's old. He's so old. Still got a beard, though, and I think he might be dying it. You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. The gossip about Chuck Norris Is that he might be dying his bed

Relevant Relevant Number two on the list Of the top six Are police commissioners That I think should step up to the job Darth Vader Yeah

That's crazy No one's gonna be messing with The Sith Lord Darth Vader He'll have them sorted out It's very scary And number one on the list I think if Darth Vader's scary This man

Scary Yeah Also I'm sorry for not including Any females on the list I think if Darth Vader's scary this man scary yet also I'm sorry for not including any females on the police commission list wow I know what a sexist POS oh yeah

because they're just the secretaries and apart from taking the minutes yeah apart from Chief Wiggum though these are all white men too Chief Wiggum's yellow man

I was like Chief Wiggum white he's yellow the Simpsons are all yellow yeah but yellow is the Simpsons white yeah it is I was like, Chief Wiggum white. He's yellow. The Simpsons are all yellow. Yeah, but yellow is the Simpsons white. Yeah, it is. No, there's that white person.

No, it is. Are you telling me that all the yellow people are brown equivalent? No, because there's Apu. Yeah. He's got brown skin. Yeah. And there's the black friend from the power plant. He's got black skin. Yeah. And there's the black friend from the power plant. He's got black skin. Or Carl.

Which one is it? I don't know. Okay, well, why don't you choose a female just quickly for your life? Preferably a black female. Okay, I can't. Well, she's not black. Top six hopefuls for the next police commissioner. My mum.

I was going to have my dad as police commissioner because... Yeah. Head stop, any shenanigans. But I'm thinking now if you want a woman on the list, your mum. Clip around the ears. Oh, yeah. She would have given those protesters a clip around the ears. Get your shit together.

She just would have gone down a higher pole and got the biggest bulldozer she could and just drove it through. Just been like, get out. If you don't want to get hurt, get out of the way. If you don't want to get hurt, get out of the way. Get out of the way. This isn't your ground. Sensible. That is today's top six.

Play. ZM's Fletch for the nightly. the way this isn't your ground. Sensible. That is today's top six. That was a cute little giggle at the end, wasn't it? What are you laughing at, me? Now, I said custard slice in the tease for this, and we established, Friday just gone, that a custard square is not in fact a slice, it is a pastry. Long game. You just proved me right.

That a custard square is a slice. The producers put slice in the sheet. It's cooked in a big pan and it's sliced up. That's all you need to know. So it's a custard slice. Great. Or a square, but it's a slice. Slice or a square.

It's a square. Well, let's not get into this. We've already been over it. How to eat a custard square. Because you know it's got pastry, custard pastry. It's a mess. And when you bite into it, the custard speweth over. Yeah.

It should have icing on it too. Oh yeah. It must have icing. Oh yeah. Icing, pastry, custard, pastry. Icing, pastry, custard, pastry. I beg your pardon. But there is a baker, her name is Monique.

She runs the 10 o'clock cookie bakery cafe on the main drag of Masterton. Okay. Tell you what, great cafe. In fact, great bakery. I actually think once we gave it bakery of the week. Oh, really? Okay. Yeah, nice.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Great bakery. Anyway. Yum. Well, now I want to go to a bakery. I know. Why are you doing this to me? I'd get a saucy roll.

Why are you doing this? I'd get a saucy roll. Why are you doing this? I'd get a saucy roll and a custard square. Anyway, she said that she witnesses so many people coming into her bakery, buying a custard square, sitting down to enjoy it and it's a mess. This is her tip on the

correct way to eat a custard square. Wait, should we all have a guess first? Bite and suck. How would you eat one? Bite. Okay. Right, you've got the custard... Wait, should we all have a guess first? Bite and suck. Because how would you eat one? Bite and suck. Is it a square or a long slice? It's a square.

It's not really a square. This one's in a long slice. Long skinny slice. Yeah, like a more, like a rectangle. Yeah, so I'm putting one end in my mouth and as I bite, I also suck. So you're going teeth in, pierce the pastry icing, and then from the sides of the mouth.

I'm going to get some icing in the mustache. That's okay. It's a bit like the sucker machine they put in when you're at the dentist. It's getting rid of the residual. And if a bit of custard's going to break during the bite through, I'm going to get that. The little bits of pastry I'm going to get in

could cause a little bit of a... If the pastry hits the back of the throat. The idea is it's not a hard suck, but just a moderately custard. Take the custard with it. You're going with this technique as well? Yeah, I think so. You're into that? If it was a square one, I'd go corner and mouth. Or I'd just knife and fork it.

Am I allowed to knife and fork it? Man, I'm driving the Kenworth. I haven't got time for a knife and a fork. Yeah, right. You're a busy truck driver. Yeah, I'm a truckie. Yeah. Okay. And also, that's just embarrassing. Yeah.

No, okay. Here's the thing. You hold the slice around the thin part, the narrow part, with your thumb and third finger, right? Like this. You're holding it like that. Yeah. With the length of it running towards the mouth.

Now, we are still talking about how to eat a custard slice. If you've just joined us. If you've just joined us. Otherwise, you could tickle the custard slice. You could tickle the end of the slice. It doesn't work. You hold that, and then you get your other pincers on your other hand, and you grab a little bit further forward on the slice.

Twist, 90 degrees. What? No, twist, yeah, 90 degrees. other hand and you grab a little bit further forward on the slice. Twist. 90 degrees. What? No, twist. Yeah, 90 degrees. Pull apart. Now you've got pastry custard, icing pastry custard in two hands. Eat one.

No. Eat the other like an open sandwich. No. Yeah. I'm sorry. The bakery's just gone out of business. That's madness. She can't be dishing out that terrible advice on how to eat a custard square.

Yeah. So here's someone who exampled it. You pull it apart. No. No. Because I like the icing. I like the icing in every bite. Yeah.

I want the icing in every bite. That's silly. I disagree. Grasp the top sheet with the thumb and middle finger of the other hand. Swift 90 degree turn with both hands. I strongly disagree. Separate the two halves into effectively two pastry biscuits with a perfect layer of custard on both.

But there's only icing on one. Eat the non-icing one first and finish with the icing one. Unless she's going to ice both sides of the custard. That's a mess. Slice. You've got to admit though, that's a tidy way to eat it. I mean, maybe.

Vaughan, you're disgusted. You're not a fan. Eat it out of the bag. You get it in a paper bag and you treat that like everything you get from a bakery. You treat that like one of those things they strap around a horse's face. Traff bag. And you eat and everything falls into the bag

and at the end you pull the bag into your mouth. No, but the custard's still coming out the sides. I'm with this. Yeah, but you can just lick up the custard. I'm not tearing it in half. This is a two-handed situation. I might as well be eating it with a knife and fork. Oh, no.

This is ridiculous. Don't join him. That was embarrassing from Fletch. What about the, because I remember I was anti the people that would break a cupcake in half and then turn the icing and make it like a sandwich. That was a good idea.

Because you were still hiding the icing. And you were still getting icing in every bite. Yeah. Weren't you? Yes. But this I cannot

get on board with because there's no icing. So when you eat an Oreo you don't twist. Dan Heath, if they're listening here, we need one of your big platters of your famous

I was going to say, if only we had some custard squares too. Trial the perfect way ourselves. Yeah, twist my arm, we could use a Den Heath as a trial. But we don't. All I've got is some sloppy oats. 29 to 7. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. There is AI everywhere.

A lot of businesses using it and it's doing some good. I was using it the other day because I'm doing a bit of travel research and booking some things and I got an answer back and I was like, that's not right. And I was like, but it's AI. And then I said, are you sure? And it said, oh, you're sorry, I'm wrong.

What? I was like, I thought AI was like, I thought this was the saviour. But were you using the free one, which is behind? I don't know. Remember the first one that they released for public use, it said, I only know up until 2020. And this was like 2022. Now this was information that wasn't really, it didn't matter about being up to date. What did it say after it said it was wrong? It gave me the right answer.

Oh, that's so weird. I find the whole thing odd. It was just odd. I was like, what? This is... Okay, so just a warning. Don't take it as gospel. I don't use it because I have no need to use it. There's no... I don't work in a job that needs it. It's pretty amazing.

I needed to write a letter and it did it And then I just changed a few things I was like, thank you Just write the letter I wrote something the other day How would someone say this Full of Australian slang And it did it, amazingly

Crazy Get over it All sorts of things. Was it just quoting Home and Away? Maybe. Probably. Well, I imagine, I haven't really thought of this because I don't have kids and I don't really care for them, but the use of AI in education must be a nightmare for teachers,

especially for high school students. And uni students are cheating, aren't they? Uni students are cheating and stuff. And like, I put myself in the position of like, if I was back at school or at uni or studying, of course I would use it.

Wouldn't you? Yeah. Well, NCA standards. Dude, we were copy pasting out of Encarta 95 back in the day

and hoping the teacher didn't notice. Ours was Wikipedia, rewording it and then citing a different, you know, how to put your references and stuff.

You just cite something else. You could make up, I mean, doctors and stuff shouldn't be, but you could just make up references. Yeah, we made up references. Teachers are too busy to check other references. Dub, dub, dub, dot. You know, it's this thing, forward slash, this number. You're what, you're going to go click on it?

Book, you'd be like, this book, page 146. Yeah, well, you go to the library to look for that. Oh, God, we all. That's how fake news starts. It is. Well, apparently, like, about a quarter of students last year I'm ready to look for that. Oh God, we all- That's how fake news starts. It is. Yeah. Well, apparently like about a quarter of students last year used AI to do essays. Like essays is the big thing

that they're cracking down on at the moment. Lots of schools. Because a lot of essays, you could take them home, write the essay, bring it back and submit it for your like internal assessment. Yeah.

And people were just straight up AI-ing it. And as AI gets smarter and smarter, sorry, it gets more smarter and more smarter. Smarterer. Smarterer and smarterer. Yeah. It gets harder and harder for the teachers to decipher whether it was written by the student

or assisted by AI. Because I read some AI and I can tell. Yeah. But then also like if you're a teacher and you've got this kid in your class and you know they're dumb. They're dumb. And then they're spitting out this essay that's like.

The findings of Witcher and you're like, you don't speak like that. You don't speak like that. Yeah, exactly. So there's a few things that apparently teachers around the country are doing. One of which is they can submit their take home essays. Yeah. But they may be subjected to a Q&A session with the teacher to try to get them to sort of tell you their understandings

and their findings. And how they came to that conclusion. Yeah, so that you know that they understand what they've written. That's one way. Another way that Onslow and Wellington is doing, changing the way that they do things. So it doesn't have to be an essay form. It could be a presentation, a PowerPoint,

however they may want to present it. And then a lot of other schools are just doing straight up handwritten. Oh, okay. So you can't copy and paste. I thought this was kind of genius. So if you had a take-home essay that was like, you wanted it to be really polished and whatever for NCA, they would go, okay, well, you're going to start it at school within this session, handwritten, no computers, no access to technology. That's your first draft. Then you're

able to take that home and refine it, reword it, research further, but we're going to have your first draft so that we know how much you actually understand. So you can use AI, I guess, to make it a bit more frilly. Yeah, but what if you don't know anything about what you're writing about? Then you deserve to fail. You deserve to fail the test. But I haven't had the chance to research.

Yes, you have. It's called school It's called being in class But you said you can read But you could read in the class from like books Yeah totally Or online sources No but Hayley said no in there

Not when you're writing the thing Not when you're writing the essay But yes, at school you can be online Take notes and whatnot But when you're writing your first draft of the essay, you're handwriting it in a room, being watched. Here's my understandings. Yeah.

So then when you go home and do your at-home edit of it, your second draft, they've got your first one to be like, but how did you go from this draft to that? To the vastly improved essay. That's clearly been assisted by AI. What a nightmare. Oh my God. Imagine being a teacher. It used to be AI, but

it was called your parents doing your homework, but mine never bought into it. But you knew there was somebody at school whose parents were definitely a little over-involved in their homework. Yeah. They're saying they're trying to create situations where students can research things in a controlled environment Yeah. They're saying they're trying to create situations where students can research things in a controlled environment

so that we're not allowing them to use AI at all because then they just fall. It's just plagiarism basically. Could you just submit a couple of TikToks and be like, it's World War II history. This is my research on World War II shown through this TikTok dance.

Yeah. Bang, bang, bang. War everywhere. It's spreading from Europe. Japan's involved. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now America's involved. I mean, that's awesome.

Hitler's angry because America's involved. Land invasion. Studying on D-Day. See, this is great. Excellence for you. A plus. See, this is great. This is excellent for you. Yeah, A plus for you, Vaughn. At school, if there was ever an option to do an assignment as a video, we always did it because it just meant I'd get my two best mates,

we'd hang out all weekend, put together some hucky video. Some hucky movie. But the teacher just appreciated you giving it a go. Yeah. Putting some effort in. Better than them having to read another boring essay or something. God, lame. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Putting some effort in. Better than them having to read another boring essay or something. God, lame. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Fletchborn and Hayley's silly little pose. Silly little pose. It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pose. Silly little pose. Silly Little Pole, how do you feel about reality TV? I honestly thought these results would have been not as close. More in favour of reality TV show, considering every second show is reality TV. I'm taking a break. Because you know when I maths and love Ireland

at the same time I go hard and it's kind of all I watch. But I'm not maths or love Ireland-ing at the moment. I don't think I watch any. You're watching crime at the moment. True crime. I'm watching true crime. I'm watching the Monsters kind of Netflix series.

About the Mendez brothers. The Menendez. I just finished True Crime. I'm watching the Monsters kind of Netflix series. About the Mendez brothers. The Menendez. I just finished last night. It's two episodes called Into the Fire on Netflix. That's a harrowing true story. It's a documentary style crime. We're actually going to talk about shows later in the show. Are we?

So we'll pause this convo. Reality TV. I started watching Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Oh, yeah. You were loving that. No. It got icky real quick. I just sort of like.

Got icky cookie. They're a little bit intolerable. Yeah, yeah. Which is rich considering that I watch things like maps. Yeah. Yeah. Well, 54% of people said they were over it, over reality TV. Holy guacamole.

Wow. 46% still love it. Interesting. No room for middle ground in this poll. Yeah. Natasha. Okay, I know it's all manufactured, but I can't look away from a train wreck. Real Housewives and Secret Wives of Mormon Lives.

Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. She's got this around the wrong way. On my guilty pleasure watch at the moment. Yeah. Over it, it all feels too scripted now. Bring back Motorway Patrol and Police 10-7. I wouldn't really call that reality TV.

I suppose it is. It was the most reality of television. It was, yeah. Because you could just trust the people on the main streets of Aotearoa to put on a show.

Yeah. Every time. Tessa, sometimes you just need dumb content and then you can double screen or do jobs while getting the gist enough to be mildly invested in a show

and that's what reality TV is perfect for. Yeah. It makes me feel like I do have my shit together and that's a reality check that I need, said Ali. So she's just watching it to make her life feel better after other people's calamities. Brianne, it's so trash, but I love it as a show that I don't have to pay attention to.

I can sit and scroll on my phone or get up and go to the kitchen. It doesn't matter how much I miss. Yeah, but a mindless background noise. Yeah. I get that. Rachel said it depends on the reality being portrayed. People showing skills like MasterChef or Bake Off, sure, RIP. RIP.

Oh. Soft launching, cancelled. People sitting on an island with a purpose of becoming famous, then that's not reality to me and I don't watch it. Ouch. Shots fired. My job is stressful and I want to turn my brain off for a bit in the evening, says Alicia.

Reality TV scratches that itch like a Q-tip to the air canal. Yeah, I get it. Not recommended, but deeply satisfying. Can't stand it. Full of fake people who want to get attention. Sorry to those who celebrate from Laura. That's nice that she's like, it's not for who want to get attention. Sorry to those who celebrate from Laura. That's nice that she's like, it's not for me, but you know, to those that celebrate.

No judgement. It had its moment in the 2010s. Surely everyone now sees how manipulated people are and how shallow the content is, with the exception of quiz shows and taskmaster and panel shows. Those aren't reality shows though. No, they're competition, like comedy shows. Comedy panel shows. And Zach said,

my life is reality TV enough, I don't need to see it on the screen as well. Sounds dramatic. Yeah, it does. Done and dusted. Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey.

Play ZM. The more I hear about this Gen Z, the more I like them. Yeah? I see a lot of Gen Z in myself. I was a Gen Z? I see a lot of Gen Z in myself. I was a Gen Z-er before Gen Z was Gen Z-ing.

We called ourselves Lazy Lineals. Lazy, right, okay. Lazy Lineals. I don't know if that's how the generations work. We live by the mantra such as things like, don't get good at something you don't want to have to do. That sounds boring, et cetera, et cetera. I'm the millennial type type of um work work work

yourself to the bone burn out at all costs yeah yeah um yeah that's bad that's bad for you yeah yeah so a study has shown that 52 of gen z professionals in the uk so like that in the workforce yeah professionals do not want a middle management like, they're in the workforce. Yeah. Professionals do not want a middle management role at any stage in their careers. Although some have admitted they'll probably have to do it but really don't want to. So they just want to coast. Well, they want to do it, I'm assuming,

because they get the pay bump, right? Because you do get the pay bump. Middle management pay bump. You've got a bit of extra, you know, responsibility. Yeah. Being middle management. But then they are like, I don't like the look of that.

That doesn't look like I'm going to get stuck in too much of the stuff I don't want to do about jobs. But if I can just keep doing this, this is what I came here to do. I have a friend that isn't, would be a millennial,

an elder millennial and got the opportunity to be the boss or head of the department and was like, no. I earn good money. I can just do what I do. I think if you're happy to get by on what you're earning at the time and you don't want the extra work,

why would you? Well, he didn't want the extra stress. You've got to manage people and put up with all their fears. It's not even just we're picturing professionals, office space perhaps. Yeah. But I remember talking to a builder once

and he was the head builder for this company. Yeah. The company was up for sale. I said, oh, you'll probably be buying it. He's like, God, no. Head builder's bad enough. I'm not going to own a business. Yeah.

What am I getting out of that? I finish at five o'clock on Friday and start again at seven o'clock on a Monday morning. Yeah, no stress. If I own this, all my weekend is just going to be filled with stress about what's next. And paperwork and accounts.

Yeah. Finish, go hunting, do whatever I want all weekend. I don't want that. You should do what a lot of builders I've met do. Just leave at 1 o'clock and then don't come back for a few days. Turn up late, have a little smoko in the driveway for an hour or so. And tell you they'll be back tomorrow. Yeah.

Tomorrow's three days from now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 72% of the Gen Z surveyed said they prefer the idea of an individual route or route, whatever. I say route because I'm classy. I say route because it sounds like roots naughty. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And it's got a U in it, you know, respect the U. Route. Individual route to advance their career, one which focused on personal growth and skills accumulation. 69, very nice. Said that middle management is too high stress, too low reward. Yeah, they want to work in the company or they want to own the company. They want to do all the middle stuff in which you are neither of those things. An employment expert says this is an indicator going forward

could mean trouble for employers down the line. The top dogs are going to have to do some hard yak. Some hard money underneath. All that bullshit that mental management have to deal with. Meetings constantly. Constant meetings. This could have been an email. That's what Vaughan says eight times a week.

We've got one today. And eight times a week Is not wrong And if it could have been an email They'll hear about it Right as the meeting finishes Yeah but you wouldn't read You wouldn't read the email anyway No I wouldn't read the email

What am I made of time? Kinda Not really Yeah you are I'm not You really are More than a lot of people Are made of time

Welcome to What's Your Jobby? We try to guess your job. Josie. Good morning. Hi. Hi, good morning. It might have been Jose. Yeah. When I saw it up on the telephone screen. Or Jose. Okay, Josie. Hi, good morning. It might have been Jose. Yeah. When I saw it up on the telephone screen.

Or Jose. Okay, Jose. Okay, Jose. Hey, Jose, how are the pussycats? Oh, for God's, I'm so sorry. No, Jose, don't even answer. I'm so sorry. Don't even answer that.

Whoa. And allergic to cats. Allergic to cats. And allergic to cats. Oh. The worst. Okay. Not a vet.

Not a vet. That's what I want to say. Okay. Oh, that was a clue. Oh, yeah. Oh. The worst. Okay. Not a vet. Not a vet. That's what I want to say. Okay. Oh, that was a clue. Oh, yeah. We got a clue. I must say, you do seem quite chirpy for this time of the morning. So maybe you don't have to deal with too many people.

Yeah. Are you chirpy this morning? It's a sunny day. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Sunny day. Okay.

My first question. Josie, do you work outdoors predominantly? I do, yep. Oh! Good stuff, good stuff, good stuff. That's why she's so chirpy. Chirpy, sunny. She could be a farmer because she might have been already up.

So she's awake. So she's done for the day. She's got a lot of jobs on the list. And it's sunny today. I'm looking at where's sunny in New Zealand. Tauranga, Rotorua, Taupo, Nelson. Okay. Everywhere else, smattering of cloud. And that Taupo, Nelson. Okay. Smattering of cloud.

And that's been your weather report. Okay. Great weather report. Great weather report. Okay. I've nailed that first question. Yeah. Okay.

Shall I say, do you work with animals? Because then that would be a farmer. Yeah. You're going because she's a roost cat. Do you work with animals? Yes, I do work with animals. Oh, shit. We've got it in one.

Have we got this first pop again? Have we got this first pop again? Have we got this first pop again? You know, bring it home. Narrow it right down. Because she could be a horse trainer. How would I? Yeah, that's actually true. I need to work out if she works.

Because what if she works with animals? Yeah. What if she's like, it could be SBCA. It could be a zoo. Because, you know, we are zookeepers in New Zealand. Choice of station. Yeah, they prefer ZM. Lesbians and zookeepers. Yeah. Any other of station. Yeah, they prefer ZM over any other radio station.

It's actually a fact. Shoot. Yeah, you could... Should I have asked if she works with tigers instead of animals? No, no, no. You did well. Don't date yourself. Auckland Zoo's the only one with tigers and it's cloudy there today.

Outdoors, animals. With Jess. She's either a farmer, some kind of veterinarian. I said not a vet, but could be just not with cats. She could be a sneezing vet. A big animal vet. Yeah. Yeah, farm animal vet.

Well, you've got another question, Vaughn. Yeah, I've got one up my sleeve here. I reckon you say do you work with big animals. Because we know she works with animals. That was one of the questions. No, big animals, though. No, because there'll be a better question to ask that kind of works out. We'll come up with that.

Are you in the animal medicine business? I could just say, do you work in the veterinary? But then we've got one more to go on. But then we've got to choose the job. Okay. Just whatever. Do you work in the vet arena? No, I don't.

Okay, she's not a vet. Oh, okay. But she works with animals. But she's allergic to cats. Milk. Farmer. Milk. Rode feels like farming.

Yeah. She's a farmer. Farmer. Josie. Do you want to lock in farmer? Josie, is your job a farmer? Yes, I am a farmer. Yay!

That was easy. That was really easy. What's your jobby? What's your jobby? You're a farmer. Dairy farmer? Dairy farmer? Dairy farmer, Josie? No, sheep, beef and deer.

Oh, wow. Sheep, beef and deer. We're about sheep, beef and deer. Oh, I thought you said pigs. Beef. I want to keep playing, though, but we've given away our money. Can we keep playing? What part of the country are you in, Josie?

I'm in northern Southland, so it's a day that it's not raining for once. Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Hey, Josie 1, we're going to give you a prize. Yep. We're allowed to keep playing. $100 cash for you.

Congratulations. I'm sorry, Josie. Say hi to the deer for me. How cute a baby deer. Tania, good morning. Good morning. How's it going? Really good.

Now, I don't know. Tania, we were going to cut you off. Yeah, I don't know what our prize is because we've given away our cash, but we'll sort out a prize if we can guess your job. Yeah. Okay, right. Tania, do you work with motor vehicles? No, I don't.

What a ridiculously narrow question, Hayley. Tania sounds just like my mechanic. Okay, right. You've hardly said a word. How can you know that Taneer's your mechanic's voice? Why do you say something like, do you work with tools? I'm attuned in. That would have been a better question.

Can I nail the last lady with the outdoor question? I've stuffed this one up. He doesn't work with vehicles. You really have. He's not a cab driver. He's not a truck driver. He's not a mechanic. I think she ruled out quite a lot of jobs. Thank you very much. He's not a courier. T's not a truck driver. He's not a mechanic. I think she ruled out quite a lot of jobs.

Thank you very much. He's not a courier. Taneer, do you work with food? No. You have absolutely screwed me, guys. That's good because the food in the vehicles. There's no vehicles and there's no food. We're looking education.

Yeah. We're looking office. I. We're looking office. I'm thinking like something office-based maybe. Yeah, Tania giving you office vibes. I don't know. I don't know. You guys have asked very poor questions. Listen, listen, listen.

What are you hearing? I thought I heard birds in the background. Outside. Do you think? Okay, so I say do you work inside or outside? Is that one of the questions No hang on Pause shut up

Wait wait wait Tania shut your mouth I'm gonna ask Indoor or outdoor I thought I heard A bird as well But he could be On his way to work

Or not at work Because it is only 20 past 7 Yeah it's early In the morning I reckon inside outside Okay do you work Inside or outside

Both Oh shit I wanted to say Inside No it doesn't work With vehicles Inside and outside inside, outside. Okay, do you work inside or outside? Both. Oh, shit. I wanted to say inside. No, it doesn't work with vehicles. Inside and outside. We've stitched

ourselves here with our three dumb questions. Builder. No, he's a Jehovah's Witness. No, they only work outside.

But they want to come inside. No, you're not coming inside. No, you're not coming inside. I think you might be right in the trade.

I reckon a trade. Sparky. Because Sparky's are inside, outside are plumbers. Yeah think you might be right in the trade. I'm not going to trade. I'm Sparky. Because Sparky's are inside, I'd say they're plumbers. Yeah. Yeah, but they have vans, vehicles. Tania, that's the masculine kind of hoot, hoot, hoot going energy I got for the mechanic vibe. All right, now, fair enough. Yeah, now. Oh, no, you shouldn't have answered, but okay.

Okay, so he's not. Okay, you shut, Tania, I've told you once, I'll say it again. You shut your mouth. I'm silent from's not. Okay, you shut, Tania, I've told you once, I'll say it again. You shut your mouth. I'm silent from here on. Okay. What about something like IT or something? Why would he be outside? Oh, yeah, because IT doesn't go outside.

They shut the curtains. They don't like light. They vampire people. Oh, my God. Hang on. Let me just head to the text machine because sometimes our listeners help us. Inside, outside. Not vehicle related.

But not working with vehicles doesn't mean he doesn't use a vehicle at all, right? Like there will be a vehicle involved. Yeah, right. See, I'm thinking maybe some kind of tradie. What do you reckon? No, he said no. Oh, he said no. Oh, yeah, okay.

Interior decorator. Oh, yeah, that's inside. That's inside, isn't it? That's inside. Okay. Interior decorator. Please, interior. Oh, yeah, that's inside. That's inside, isn't it? That's inside. Shit, we're really stumped here. Well, we've just got to guess one, don't we? Okay.

Windows. Most windows are inside. And that's a trade, I reckon. You reckon windows is a trade. What the hell was that? See, this is what I'm trying to pick up. There's a lot of weird noises going on. He does doors.

He does doors. He does doors. He does a squeaky door. He's a doorman. He's not a joiner, but he's a doorman. He installs those rotary doors because they're both inside and outside. I think he does, like, I just hear a squeaky, like, sliding doors. Okay, do you install doors?

No, but wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait. What? You said you heard doors. He, do you install doors? No, but wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait. Shut up. Wait, wait, wait. What? You said you heard doors. He's literally told us he works inside and outside. They're the portal between. That's what I mean. Yeah, that's what he's saying.

Doors are inside and outside. But he's a doorman. Any job that involves him being inside and outside would involve him going through doors. Vaughn, shut up. Okay, I'll part. I'll hide. I just, I can't.

You're okay. Hayley. Tania, are you a doorman? No, I'm not. You don't install doors? What a guess. Are you sure you don't install doors, Tania? You know what?

It was some poor questions from Hayley and Vaughn first up. What do you do, Tania? I'm a window cleaner. I said windows! I said windows! You did say windows. I said windows because they're inside and outside and everyone's scoffed. He's a window cleaner.

I said it. I said it. Wait, Tynia, don't you technically also clean doors? He's not a door man. I'm actually cleaning a door right now. Yeah. I said, are you a door man? Those were those noises we heard that we thought was a bird.

Was that you like squidging the window and making little squeaks? Yeah, I think so. We had so many clues there. That was so close, wasn't it? That was so close. Oh, goodness. Yeah, it was very close. No, unfortunately, well, we can't.

The rules are the rules. Sorry, Timmy. We unfortunately could not. So you also do a job like, that's the job I always look at at our house, and I'm like, that's a job for another day Yeah Do you do the high

like the abseiling windows? Yeah We do all the high stuff from the ground Oh Like a 20 metre pole that shoots out water Oh yeah

Oh there it goes Look at that big pole He's got a big pole That one sounded like a horse Tadea thank you so much for playing What's your Jobby.

Unfortunately, we couldn't guess your job, but I tell you what. It was so close. So close. It's all good. Thank you. Thank you. All right. You be safe.

Yeah, you be safe, please, Tanir. Do you have a favourite, like, blue squidgy thing to use, Mr. Muscle, or what's your window cleaner of choice? I use Unger. Okay, I don't know what that is. Unger. It's where youegee brands, but it's really just like

dish soap and water and then you just scrub it on the window and then, yeah. I'm sorry, no. That'll be why he gets the squeaky window, the squeaks. Yeah.

The squeaky clean. Oh, Tineo, that really just... My dude, I'm looking at these Unger products, a window squeegee's $150. Yeah, well, I don't pay for them, so that's all right.

Yeah, he's in a... It's a business. Jesus! Play. ZM. Fletchvorn and Hayley. We're doing thorough research for today's radio program. Thorough research.

As you do every day. I went to the New Zealand Herald website, nzherald, H-E-R-A-L-D,.co.nz. Now, that's a privately owned media organisation, so they sell advertising space. Yes. Now, around the side, it was a giant ad for Anka. Yeah.

Anka Milk. Yeah. Giant ad for it. A couple of well-knowns on there, Lance Savali up the top. Yeah. To the side, I noticed Dame Valerie Adams. Okay. And I thought, interesting, she's on a big anchor money,

big Fonterra money, because her brother, Stephen Adams, is a meadow fresh man. That's right. We had him in here, and they've got the, what are they called? Yum, yum, Stephen Adams drinks. Calcium. No, calcium's just chocolate for milk. Up and goes the sanitarium version,

and his is the Stephen Adams yum, yum, get going, great big breakfast drink. I remember when we had Stephen Adams in here and you didn't tell me he was coming in. And I looked like a rat. Yeah, a drowned rat too. I looked like a drowned rat. So he's meadow fresh and she's anchor.

I mean, they come from the same cows, but those are opposing dairy companies. Yeah. And they said, remember we said when they were growing up, there was sometimes three two-litre bottles of milk in the fridge and they'd be gone and they were just constantly. Yeah. Imagine his family.

Oh, my God. That fridge. What a sight to behold. What a sight. The loaves of bread on that counter. I bet a bachelor's handbag, I bet a roast chook would be terrified. It wouldn't even see the light of day. It would be demolished.

It would be demolished in the car home from the supermarket. And they would have stripped the whole bones. Not like my children. There's only two of them and they're tiny little white girls. And they'll be like, nibble, nibble, nibble, I'm done. I'm like, that thing is covered in meat. But so who does the family have to side with? Who's the milk provider?

Who they support. Who's the milk provider? Is he rocking home with Meadow Fresh? Is she coming in with Anchor? Is there a bit of a dairy stoush? That's like when different siblings support different sports teams. Yeah. You know, what it must be like to be a Warriors fan

but have someone in your family that supports or, you know, your sibling supports some loser team like the Melbourne Storm. I think you're going to say what it must be like to even care about a sports team. There would be so many people in America who have Trump-supporting family members. Even here there would be different, you know, your sibling could have a different, you know, political outlook.

Yeah, or religious. I haven't even thought about the political side of things, but my brother and I are very different politically. Yeah, you are. You know, I'm hard right. Oh, yeah, yeah. Everyone's saying Bourne's a mouthpiece for the right, and he's just some weedy hippie. Gunja token. Lefty.

Somewhat the opposite. No, you guys are completely opposite. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think we almost, if something new pops up, we almost decide, I like that, and then the other one

just has to like the other thing. Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, he's Xbox, and I'm PlayStation. Yeah. And that's a true story. Okay. What did you think of the PlayStation 5? I was like, it rules. He's like, good, yeah. Like, he's Xbox and I'm PlayStation. Yeah. And that's a true story. He was like, what did you think of the PlayStation 5?

I was like, it rules. He's like, good, I bought an Xbox. I was just like, what did you? Okay, this is how it's going to be. He's PC, 100%. Apple products. He's like, no, never. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Oh, he is an absolute loser. He is such a loser with his Android. Such a loser. Yeah, does he have an Android as well? Yeah. Loser. That's disappointing. When you text him, it's green.

I don't text him. Well, this is what we wanted to ask you this morning. How different are you than your sibling? Like, do you support different things? Or are you into completely different things? Yeah. There'll be like twins and one's like a rock and roll and goth and one's like a Taylor Swift loving, you know.

Oh, it was always interesting. Like you said, the school's goth. And then you'd see their family and you're like, I'm not goth. There was always just one goth. One goth per family, I think, was the max. That was Hayley. That was Hayley. She was the one goth per family.

Yeah, my brother was a bit rock and roll, though, so we sort of both looked on the wrong side of the tracks. Yeah, but not goth. Yeah, yeah, not goth. If both your kids go goth, you seriously start questioning your parenting. Oh, 100%. Okay, so 0800-DARLS-AT-EMERZON-NUMBER.

Give us a call now. Text through 9696. What's the biggest difference between you and your sibling? You support different things. You're into different things. The differences. Yeah. Give us a call.

I like this a lot because I love sibling differences. So good. We're all very different. My brother and sister and I are all very different. And we're just like adults on parallel paths. But you and your brother kiss on the mouth and call each other babe. Let's focus more on our close soul bond and not just the fact that we kiss on the mouth

and say, hey, babe, how are you? Do you think it's because you're a core four? Because my family's a core four. Two adults, two children. That's what we... I learned that off the Myers Brothers podcast. They call it a core four. Yes, whereas Aaron's five and two.

Too many. Too many. Too many. Yeah, right. But core four means... It's equal amount of attention? I guess so. I think we just feel like a little unit.

Yeah. A little like unstoppable brick. A team of four. Right. Yeah. So this idea came to us because Valerie Adams, Dame Valerie Adams is... She's in an ad at the moment for Anka products. Yeah.

Anka milk. Excuse me. And Stephen Adams is... Meadow Fresh. He's Meadow Fresh. Competing. That's competing endorsements. I mean, good on them. They'll be fighting over milkadow Fresh. He's Meadow Fresh. Competing. Competing endorsements. I mean, good on them.

They'll be fighting over milk at Christmas. It'll be harrowing. Or they're just going to have so much milk at Christmas. People are like, oh, bring the eggnog. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let's make bread and butter pudding. So how different are you to your sibling, Katrina?

You're a twin. Yeah, I am. Jealous. And how different? So we were just having a Google meeting. My son are on the way to work and we were like, ha, that's like you. So I'm more of a spender.

Like I believe that, you know, enjoy life, you know, buy the things that you want to buy. And she's a bit more tighter than me. I'm probably, she's probably going to laugh. She's probably listening too, actually. Well, I tell you what, you've got your differences, but at least you've both got a fine taste

in radio stations thanks for joining us thanks for being with us Katrina and Katrina what radio show makes you laugh out louder stop it

Katrina have you guys always been this way like since you were young no as we've gotten older and you know we live in different parts of the country

And things like that So yeah Does she lecture you Yeah definitely This is a massive difference Between my brother And I as well He's paid off his mortgage

Yeah Boy I'm I'm being crippled by mine But you're having a fun life I'm having fun We're having a fun time Nice

Katrina thank you. Let's go to Rebecca. Rebecca. Another twin. Also, wait. You're not Katrina's sister. No, no, I'm not. Oh, that would have been fun.

Now, so you're a twin as well. How are you two so different? Well, this has been since we were very young. She decided that pink, when we were like four, she decided that pink, when we were like four, she decided that pink was the best colour in the world. So I decided that pink

was the worst colour in the world and had tantrums if mum bought me anything pink. And this was the start of it. Okay. Right. This is a therapy session, by the way.

Feel free to unhide everything. And now we've got over that. Like I love pink now. It took 18 years, but we got over that. Yep. But now we are got over that. Like, I love Pic now. It took 18 years, but we got over that. But now we are just completely different people. She's very introverted. Loved her D&D.

Loved her superheroes, her Marvel. Right. I'm hearing that you're not introverted. I'm a very extroverted person. I'm a teacher, which for her would be the worst, her nightmare, having to stand up in front of people. Like, I am a girly girl. I went to Aeros Tour and I love concerts and big events. And for her, that's her worst nightmare.

Wow. Love this. And, you know, if you were just sisters, you'd be like, okay, that's fine. But you're twins. People would expect you to be exactly the same, right? Oh, we get asked that all the time and we've got one other sister who is a perfect middle ground between us.

Oh, wow. Are you, despite your differences with your twin, are you guys close? No. Oh, wow. Interesting. I always thought you had to be if you were a twin. Yeah, that twin tuition. Yeah, twin tuition. Yeah. No, we're just two different people. Wow. Should have we're just two different people.

Should have eaten her in the womb. That sort of absorbed her. That was dark. And then later on in life, you just find this little lump and a doctor cuts it open. It's got some teeth in the hair and some hair in it. It's always wild. You're like, you ate your twin in the womb. There is a family joke about how I stole all the technology knowledge and she stole all the nerdy knowledge.

From the placenta. Oh, yes. You made a division in the placenta. Oh, that's so fascinating. Thank you, Rebecca. Yeah, so fascinating. So many messages in. My dad just told me to message those guys on the radio station and said the biggest difference to me and my sibling is I'm alive and he's dead.

Is it too early for this sort of dark humour? Well, I just told a twin to eat her other twin in utero. It's never too early for dark humour here, Dad. And you're one of us. One of us. Should we give Dad our caller of the week? I want to give Dad something. Oh, Dad.

That's dark, Dad. Call up that radio station. Yeah. Someone said, my lesbian sister votes Greens. I'm a straight 40-year-old male who votes Act. We're hearing from lots of lesbians. We've got an Act listener. We've got an Act listener.

Explain David Seymour. No, no one can explain David Seymour. This guy just doesn't want to pay tax. Oh, right. Lots of lesbians. Me, pink mohawk, boys clothes, raging lesbian, younger sister, popular girl, head girl dating the boys sports captain. Teachers could never believe we were even related. Wow, raging lesbian. Younger sister, popular girl, head girl dating the boys sports captain.

Teachers could never believe we were even related. Wow, so different. I'm an animal conservationist and my brother's a professional hunter. But he only hunts animals that are, like, you only hunt animals that are pests. So in a way, you're kind of on the same team. Yes.

He's protecting the area, so your animals that you're conserving, I could imagine they could never go out and kill animals, though. Probably not. I don't could imagine they could never go out and kill animals though. Probably not. You wouldn't go out shooting them. You'd get them in traps and all that kind of stuff. My sister goes to church every week and sings in worship.

I live with my boyfriend out of wedlock. Oh my God, heathen. Heathen. The devil's work. Lesbian loving, lesbian loving, well I meant it goes without saying. Lesbian cat loving artist

that's me my six siblings are extreme preparing for the end of world and Jesus' return oh my god homophobic

worth checking in but good on you I mean you are you are that's great my twin sister and I are completely different I'm into girls. I don't know if that was worth checking in, but good on you. I mean, you are, you are. That's great. My twin sister and I are completely different. I'm a lesbian dairy farmer who never wears makeup and my sister is a banker in Melbourne who looks like one of the girls off maths.

Whoa. Oh, wow. I love this. My sibling likes cucumbers. That's weird. Thank you. Brother one is a cop. Brother two is a druggie

and often in trouble with the law. Easy way to keep tabs on brother two through brother one. Oh my, could you live in the same city if your brother was always in trouble? No. It happens in all cop dramas. Remember, there's always the black sheep of the family.

Yeah, there is. Get in the back of the car, Andrew. I work in a large corporate business in central Wellington and yesterday my sister helped give birth to a cow in Gore. Completely opposite. She has a gun license. I have a marketing degree.

Wow. Yeah. Polls apart. My brother can tell you anything you ever wanted to know about trains, and I'm not autistic. Okay, well, that's a difference. To be honest, I'd love to hear more about trains. Same.

I love trains. Do you know this morning when I was like late because my alarm didn't go off? Yeah. The first train I have seen in years on the QMU line caused the arms to come down. I didn't even know the arms worked anymore. That line hasn't been used. I've been stopped there before. How long ago?

I haven't seen a train on those lines. A year and a half ago. If you'd asked this guy's brother. That's why I want to know if your brother can tell me what's going on because it was just two engines going arse to arse. One way. Right. Where are they going?

No trains. I think they call that docking. Yeah, I don't think we call it arse to arse. If it's trains, it was butt to butt. Right, okay. There's got to be a train term for it, boy. It can't be arse Right, okay. The trains were scissoring. There's got to be a train term for it, Voy. Scissoring. It can't be arse to arse.

It's not scissoring. Those trains were scissoring. Look at those trains going by. What do you call that? Scissoring. Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM. The head of Netflix was talking to an audience

and mentioning global streaming and mentioned the biggest shows of 2024 on Netflix. Because do you feel like Netflix had a little bit of a lull? Like there was a period of time where I couldn't find anything to watch on it. Yeah, I think it was like a year ago. I haven't had Netflix for maybe nine or ten months. It felt like pandemic hangover.

Yeah, it did. It was dry. Yeah, some really key things kept getting made during the pandemic, but because of the extra costs of the sets and everything having to be safe, yeah, there might have been a bit of a thing. Now it's so good. Now I'm like, God, maybe I need to sign back up to Netflix because there's so many great shows people are talking about at the moment.

But for the first half of 2024, the top shows on Netflix, the thriller, and these are all British made, by the way, the thriller Fool Me Once, which was amazing. That was a whodunit Joanna Lumley. Yes, Joanna Lumley was in it. The Chick from Coronation Street. I don't know who that is. Harlan Coben.

He's the guy that has written all these books, and he signed like a 10 or 15 episode or series deal with Netflix years ago. He looks like Stanley Tucci. Michelle Keegan is the Chick from Coronation Street. Yeah, that Chick from Coro Street. I need to watch Coronation Street. So Fool Me Once was the most popular show on Netflix with 108 million viewers around the world.

Bridgeton, 92 million views in the first six months. Baby Reindeer, 88 million and The Gentleman was at 76 million. Oh, The Gentleman was great. That was a great show. Really enjoyed that. Guy Ritchie. His first time he's done a TV show

because he's only ever done movies, right? Yeah. I think so. Do you know what is apparently good at the moment is Chaos, which is... I've watched that on Netflix. It's about... What's his name? Jeff Goldblum.

Jeff Goldblum. Jeff Goldblum. And a woman that you'll see and you'll be like, oh, she's been in hundreds of things and then you look it up and she hasn't really, but she's just like been there the whole time. Right, yeah, yeah. Cliff Curtis is in that as well. That's basically like it's Greek mythology in the modern era.

Jeff Goldblum is Zeus. And it's all Greek legends. So if you did like classic studies at school. This would be up your alley. It's all those stories wound into one in a modern time. I'd say I really enjoyed it. It was really cool. And we mentioned earlier in the show a lot of true crime.

Yeah, I'm watching Monsters, the Lyle and Eric Menendez story, which releasing soon on Netflix is the documentary about that story of the brothers who killed their parents. And that's Ryan Murphy that's done that. Yes. Has he made that? Yes. This isn't the first time that's been made into a TV.

No, but this drama. I remember watching one when I was young about it because it happened in the early 90s. Yeah. But this dramatisation of it is so good. Oh, yeah. Harrowing. Not for the faint of heart because it's very dark.

It turns dark. But the way it's shot is so good. And this rich Italian 90s aesthetic is really like Slow Horses is back as well Apple TV Apple TV's got

some good ones Bad Monkey on Apple TV rules Vince Vaughn's back yep and he's what did they call it when Matthew McConaughey

came back the McConaughe McConaughe McConaughe sounds like Renaissance the Vince Vaughn-ance the Vince Vaughn-ance

yeah he's so good in this Bad Monkey's really good Slow Horses I've been watching. Yeah, there's... I just want to go home and watch TV. It does feel like a little bit of a sweet spot for good shows at the moment. Yeah, it does.

There's a lot to watch. Into the Fire over the last couple of nights. We haven't watched a TV show together for ages. Do you know what's a great show to watch? Golden Boy. Now, that was a 2019-2020 show, a New Zealand comedy sitcom. Great show. Who's in it?

James Rolleston, Kim Crossman, Edna Daniels, Rema Taweta, Hayley Sproul. It's just such a good show. Where do you find the show? In the trash.

You see, what you've got to do is go to threennow.co.nz and then down in the bottom corner there's a recycling bin. Open that up. Open that up. If they haven't emptied the recycling bin, it'll still be in there. You might be able to drag it back onto the desktop.

I believe that was Hayley's last paid acting gig. Yeah, it was. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, she was on the Lucy Lola show. Oh, it wasn't. Murder, she wrote. No. Murder.

Murdering. A show about murdering. Oh, God, I can't remember what No. Murder. Murdering. A show about murdering. Oh, God, I can't remember what it's called. The Lucy Lewis Show. The Lucy Lewis Murder Show. No wonder you're not picking up any more work. It's probably all the promo you did for your show. She's so unprofessional. Play ZM's Flesh, One and Hayley.

There is a Kiwi sex therapist called Sophie Louise. Now, she has written an article for NZ Herald about how to handle the delicate subject of sex when it comes to talking to your kids. We actually had a chat. Okay. My best friend was up last week, and she mentioned that her son and daughter heard the term MILF

and asked Jess what it meant. And Jess was like, I'll tell you. And they were like, oh! Why would anyone find that attractive? It was so funny. I really found it cute. Sexually attracted people too?

Yes. Anyway, I thought that was really funny. Funny when you hear those terms as a kid and you're like, what is that? Anyway, so this sex therapist gave some advice on the do's and don'ts. Like don't ignore it. You can't just turn your back from it. Yep.

Yeah, that's how you end up with teenage pregnancies. Yeah, totally. Don't send the wrong messages like discouraging, you know, don't basically paint sex as being a bad thing. Encourage them asking questions and handle it delicately. It's a really great article. But it made me think

because especially if you're an adult now, we live in a bit more of an advanced society. Maybe I would like to think a bit more open-minded. But back in the day, some of it was terrible. I got given that book, Where Do I Come From?

Yeah, what's happening to me? Yeah, what's happening to me was the puberty one and Where Do I Come From is the How Babies Are Made. Because they just went,

oh, I can't talk to you about it. Here's a stupid cartoon book. Oh yeah, but did you get the, here's the book, read this, any questions,

ask, and then. I don't know, I don't think so. I think they just gave me the book. They just book, read this, any questions, ask. And then. I don't know. I don't think so. I think they just gave me the book. They just outsourced it to a book. Yeah. In which like the man and the woman have a lovely love cuddle.

Yeah. And then a baby arrives. Like that was the sort of breakdown of it. I don't believe there would be a diagram of things. No, we read different books. And they just thought that school would take care of the rest of the education. Yeah. And I will say they didn't really.

I went to a religious high school and it was, don't do this or you'll get pregnant or don't do this or you'll get some kind of terrible disease. Yeah. And that's it. And that was the extent of it. Yeah. So I wanted to ask whether it was given to you by your sibling

or your parents or even if it was like a school education, how bad did your birds and the bees chat go? Love that. Couple of texts already. Okay, go. When I first started my period, my mother told me I was menstruating and I could get pregnant.

I was 11. She didn't tell me how I could get pregnant. She just said, you're menstruating now and you could get pregnant and left it at that. And so I was like, what am I just going to be pregnant?

It's just around the corner. Mum. You left out one vital ingredient there. Leaving out some details. Okay, well, you can give us a text, 9696, or call 0800-DARLS-IT-M. How bad was the birds and bees chat for you? Well, a therapist has given a do's and don'ts list of how to talk to your kids about the birds and the bees. Oh, some great stories coming in.

Yeah, but I don't think my parents had the advice of a therapist because I got handed a book. And that was it. And sent on me merry way. Yep. Figured it out in situ. Some of these messages are wild. And I will tell you what, Gen X, perhaps the wildest of them all.

Oh, really? The boomers, their parents were the World War II people. Hush, hush. You don't talk about things. We don't talk about the war and we don't talk about sex. And then Gen X started to get that next generation where their parents were kind of like, I want to tell them something because I felt like I was in the dark there

for a while, but I'm not going to give them much information. Like someone said, my Roman Catholic father left me a pornographic magazine on my desk with a note saying, any questions, ask. No, no, no, no. That's not. I mean, bless, he was trying. Bless. He was trying.

Max, how did the birds and the bees chat go? Oh, well, it was actually a book called Where Did I Come From? Yeah. Yeah, I had it. And from a young age, yeah, it was a jug of beer. What? And a book, yeah. Well, you sat down with a jug of beer.

Yep. So every time Dad had a beer, I would question, how come there's no more of us? What? Well, you know, it wasn't until high school, it's like we got the talk. Right. Yeah, yeah, you know, it wasn't until high school, it's like, we got the talk. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And every time Dad was trying to sit down to relax and have a nice relaxing beer, you'd be straight in his face with questions. Oh, definitely, definitely. Oh, my gosh. So are we still doing the book now, or we're not still doing the book? We're not doing the book.

We're not doing the book anymore. I think it're totally inappropriate nowadays. Use your words, Mum and Dad. We're not doing the book. Max, thank you. Some messages in. I gave my daughter the talk recently. A few weeks later, she accidentally

walked in on her dad and his new girlfriend. Ran from the room screaming, I don't want any more brothers and sisters. I wasn't going to be the one to tell her people do it for fun too. I get that's part of it though, right? Because it was always just the black and white back in the day of this is why you do it. Because babies are on the other end. They didn't tell you about the good stuff as well. Anna, how did your birds and bees chat go?

I was four and I found a photo album and my parents decided to take photos of my birth. Okay. Which was a caesarean, so as you can imagine, it was quite messy. Good Lord. Yikes. Who was taking the photos at the time? I think it was my dad, to be honest.

Interesting. Oh, God. Okay, wow. Yeah. And so you were like, tell me what's happening here. So, well, obviously I was like, what is this? And went to them and was like, what's this? And they were like, oh, that's how you were born.

And so they actually did a pretty good job in the actual talk and explaining how everything worked. But as you can imagine, I wasn't very interested in having a baby myself. No. No. I have never seen a C-section, but I can imagine. You're literally slicing a woman open. Yeah.

And then it's in one of those. Pulling a hairless monkey out. Yeah. Yeah, it didn't show that bit. It was just a lot of blood and a hospital room. Wow. Wow. That would probably put you off for a while, actually, wouldn't it?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Still not interested in any kids. Still not interested. Wow, so it scarred you to this day. Anna, thank you. Some messages in. Somebody said, sound off Gen X.

We found out about the birds and the bees when we fell pregnant in the back of an XY Falcon high on ecstasy. Oh, for God's sake. Oh, my Lord. It's too late for the chat then. I love this text. It's naughty.

No birds and the bees talk for me, but instead my mum demonstrated a action with a carrot the first time I brought a guy home. This is how you do it. The guy's there as well. The guy's there in the bedroom. Mum goes come with me hun. Gets a carrot out of the fridge

and goes this is how you. Jesus. That's a progressive mother. That is a very progressive mum. Oh wow. My very Catholic mother assumed I'd be doing nothing and needed to know nothing until after I got married. Yeah, right. At that stage, I'd be old enough to figure it out myself.

Still haven't had the chat. Two kids later, I've been married for 24 years. Well, that is the one time where that has worked. Yeah. I think. Well, it's a very rare occasion. We had one of those books in the house growing up. I don't remember much about it,

except that they likened the big O to a sneeze at one stage of the book. Yeah, right. My parents left it all up to the amazing New Zealand public school system. All I remember is giggling a lot and one boy making a joke about needing a bigger condom, and I can confirm later on he definitely did it.

Play ZM's Fletch, Fawn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. Do, do. Today, this week's Fact of the Day theme is about streaks. We've covered Duolingo, we've covered gambling. Today we cover a game show streak that they think may be impossible to beat the way game shows are structured now. Okay. The carryover champ goes to the next episode.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And Ken Jennings is The carryover champ goes to the next episode. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. And Ken Jennings is that carryover champ. He... I just call him Kennings for short. He, he, he, he. He, he, he, he. Or Jen. Nah, Jen Kennings. He is

a Jeopardy champion and now Jeopardy host. He took over from Alex Trebek. I remember this happening. Not that I was ever, you know, you just said in the news every now and again. Yeah. Was it recently, like in the last 10 years? No, 2004 was when he secured a consecutive 74 wins in a row, setting records.

And obviously everybody started watching. It was great for Jeopardy because they're like, is this guy just going to keep winning? Is this guy just going to keep winning? Yeah. So he did, and he's got the longest run on Jeopardy, this streak. Is he super brainy? Super brainy, yeah. Computer programmer.

I read a bit about him. As a young child, his father was in the military, and they got stationed in South Korea. So he learned Korean, learned a lot of other things. But the idea, have you guys ever watched Jeopardy? You've got to answer with the form of the question. Yes. You'll be like, categories.

Did we have a Jeopardy? Is that what Di Henwood hosted? No, that was Family Feud. That was Family Feud, that's right. And that's like an audience vote sign things.

Yeah, that's right. This is like, you go into a category and then the more money that category has, the harder the question. And the way you answer

is weird, eh? In a question. Yeah. Yeah. Is it something or rather data? Yeah. So,

a couple of things about his streak. On Jeopardy, when you, at the start of the show, at the contestants, they introduce the contestants, right? They're like, and Steve, you're a teacher from Connecticut. What's your favorite thing to teach kids? And he's like, I love seeing their little faces light up when we teach them great moments of American history. Great.

Thanks for joining us, Steve. On to the next one. Well, this guy, Ken, was on 74 shows. 74! So he ran out of things to talk about. He admitted when he was finished that he was just making up things. Well, I like possums and I like to go down to the hoo-hoo. Yeah, yeah.

Well, let's hope after tonight's win you can get on back down to that hoo-hoo. Let's play Germany. That's what he was doing. He was just making up lines, making up things, fabricating things. Oh, the host, Alex Trebek, would say, Ken, at the weekend you went to Hawaii. And I was like, I sure did. I had a great time.

But he didn't. But he just had nothing else to say. Because he was on 64 times. Because he was on so much. And they just don't think they want you to introduce yourself, but they've got to get to you. They've obviously got to say something about you being up to. Also, at the end of the very first episode he was on.

So this is 2003. I don't know why I was thinking this was like the 70s. No, he's only just 50 now, this guy. The answer was, who is Marion Jones? That was what he had to put. It was a question about an Olympian. And he said, who is Jones? And the judges were like, and they had to deliberate on it at the end of his first episode.

Yep. So he had 73 episodes after that. Yep. But he could have been out on his first episode because he didn't say, who is Marion Jones? But they decided, they're like, he knows who it is. He just hasn't put the first name. So we'll let him through. And then that kickstarted this massive streak

wow wow what was his last one I don't know what his last question was and I honestly think he like bowed out rather than

I think he retired undefeated right rather than got knocked out but he was like yeah he holds a game show record

for the most consecutive carryover champs that there's ever been wowzers and then he got to host the show as well so today's Yeah, he holds a game show record for the most consecutive carryover champs that there's ever been. Wowzers. And then he got to host the show as well. So today's fact of the day is Ken Jennings, the man who has the longest Jeopardy game show streak, was just making up stories so he had something to talk to the host about.

Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. Today I'm getting a What do you call it? It's like a steroid injection Yeah I've had one of those before A cortisone injection I had one in my back I'm getting something I wondered why you were looking so muscly

I'm doing traps, biceps, quads That's it I'm going to call it there I just want a little bit How does it work? It injects the cortisone into like the nismal. Nerv. The nismal.

Or the nismal or the muscles. Into the nismal. The nerves or whatever. And then it stops the inflammation, right? Like it. Yeah. Aaron's had one in his spine before and it was one of the most harrowing things. It's like an epidural needle.

Yeah. And those who have had an epidural are going. A thick one. It's a an epidural needle. And those who have had an epidural are going, ah, it's a big thickie. I think it works by stopping the glouscan flema from getting too much. To the epicoronchitis.

You bring up an interesting point because the epicoronchitis is what they believed was the root of the pain. But they recently found it as actually the herpenslefin. I've got a definition. When injected into a joint or muscle, steroids reduce redness and swelling in the nearby areas.

But is that not what I just said? Yeah, but you're missing the terminology. He's using layman's terms. I'm sorry, I used my medical training there to give you the scientific full noise breakdown. Well, I'm getting one of those in my knee today. The myobion? In the myobion. In the myobion.

In the myobion. It's only the left phial myobion. A very good point. Because it's not the whole thing. Because you don't want it in the right majorum phlobion. That's right. And you don't want it accidentally going into your phalangelitis. Oh, no, phalangelitis is the disease of the phalangelli.

Of the phalangelli. I forgot that and you'd never walk again. If you get an inflated phalangelli, it is called phalangellitis. Phalangellitis, that's right. Well, I don't have phalangellitis, but I do have nerve damage in my leg, and they're hoping that this will get rid of it, right?

And I've been waiting for this appointment for ages. I've had MRIs, scans, x-rays, everything. This is... Why? Because I'm also waiting for a shoulder specialist. Why are they not... A shoulder specialist, They have a title. A balafonamoi.

A balafonamoi. Now, aren't they called an orthopedic? No. No, you're thinking of the shoes. That's Sealy's Posturepedic. Stealing Sealy, really. Sealy's, really. No, they were something pedic.

Yeah. I've got an email. No, you're thinking of the old name, the old palotholidepedic. Palotholidepedic. Yeah. How do you not know this stuff? This is Radio 101.olidopedic? Palotholidopedic. Yeah. How do you not know this stuff? This is Radio 101. You've got to do a medical degree.

You've got to do a medical. Orthopedic surgeon. I've got the email here. But an orthopedic surgeon's not just a shoulder specialist. That's a whole bunch of stuff. Like what? Bones, isn't it? Everything.

I don't know. I'm not going to the orthopedic surgeon. I'm going to a pain clinic. Why do you have to wait months to see these people? Pain clinic specialists have a name too, of course. They're falafelians. Falafelians, yeah. So MNG, who I'm seeing today, he's a falafelian,

but he also studied in keratins as well, which is like not what I'm after, but it's good to know that he understands it. But then it's sort of a sibling science. It is. So that's good. A lot of parallels. Anyway, this is because I've got this nerve damage.

Whatever. The pain thing aside, this is like a last ditch attempt. I have waited and waited and waited. This is a three-year issue. This is like hopefully this does something and it will answer a lot of questions. Probably could have gone to Turkey and got this sorted in a week. Got a nice rack on my way out. No, because in Turkey they'll put you under and you wake up,

they've taken your filaminin. I need the filaminin. And, of course, we've talked about the science of that. Yeah, you need that. Specialist area. So it's today and we've got meetings today and I need to go to the game and I don't have time to go home and I am wearing pants and I didn't bring shorts.

And they're always like, bring shorts. No, go in your knickers. Yeah, I'm going to go in my undies. But can I, I'll show you just the top of the undie. Oh yeah, this is going to. It's. What are you like 80? I'd imagine that sort of nan in their 80s wears.

It's high, high waisted, pink, stretchy undie. And I'll tell you, it's a high cut. We are. In the ass. Out and about. No, no undie. And I'll tell you, it's a high cut. We are out and about. No, no, no. In the front and the back, it's a high cut. There's the top. But it's your knee. Okay, right.

Yeah. Do they not give you like pants? No, not this one. I've been to a musculoskeletal person who had a pair of elastic pants. But you know me, I've got a dumper that don't stop. And sometimes I don't fit to pants. Okay, right. So your options are go in your granny knickers.

Go in my granny panties. Or could you buy some on the way? Is there like a Kmart or a warehouse? It's so wasteful. What are you wearing? Are you guys both wearing jeans today? I do have gym shorts in my bag. Yeah, but we're going to the gym.

I'm going to put on your sweaty crotch gym shorts after this. Wow, okay. Well, you do have that medical disorder in the crotch. Oh, the phalangealitis. No, no, no. No, that's not phalangealitis. Don't be silly. Don't make up words.

It's your Ungarnstian clan. Ungernstian. Yeah. I've over-pronounced. I do apologise. I've got an over-producing Ungenstein Your Ungenstein is rank We need to get that sorted

I had no idea you guys went to med school How did you not know this? I went drama school, med school and then I came here I went to Latin school first to learn how to pronounce all these words Maybe you were right, maybe it is Ungen Ungenstein Far be it from me to correct a woman in the field.

I respect you too much to do that. Well, good luck to me and our doctor today because I will. I'm going to be lying there in the worst pink high-waisted granny undies. Is there enough coverage down there? Like you don't want to slip a... It is a high, high cut.

Wow. She is slicing and dicing. I reckon they've got shorts for people like you. No, I'm going to have to go get something. And as just a reminder, I hope everybody out there is having a pain-free day, especially in the Glastephian region.

Oh my God. Have you ever experienced Glastephian pain? I had shingles on my Glastephian. Did you? Oh my God. Not shingles. Don't call it by its layman's term. Oh, I'm sorry. Padopadopadon.

Padopadopadon. Yeah. I don't like to go to... Well, I was trying to... Because he said layman's term. Isn't that what you get with an Indian dish? No, that's papadom.

Oh, sorry. This is padopadopadon. AKA. Medicine's no joke. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley. Guys, important information because on Tuesday, parking fines all over the country are changing.

Now, I didn't know this, but the government sets how much parking fees are. I thought it was the councils, but it's not. I only knew this because I've lived in Wellington in the last like 10 years and then also Auckland. And it was always 12 bucks if you ran over. And then X amount. And it was 40 if you didn't pay for parking.

Yeah, if you didn't pay at all. And quite often, and I know the girlies in the office are the same, sometimes it's actually easier just to take a risk, get the odd ticket, and you'll still pay less in parking for a whole week in the city, right? Yeah, yeah. Sometimes, cough, Georgia, does this quite often, actually. Really, Georgia?

You listen, Georgia, because this is not good. This is not good news. She did just say off-air that a fine just showed up. Yeah. And how much was that? $12. Okay, well, I'm going to tell Georgia, I'm going to tell everybody now how much it's going to be now.

Now, I will start by saying that the fine for going in a bus lane is not changing, $150. Yeah, because that's always been so much more expensive than parking. Same with the no-WOF or REJO $200 each. That is not changing. I got two and one once, WOF and REJO. Because that was introduced

way later than parking fines too, so that's almost how they did over the last 20 years, start getting a bit more money. So, overstaying in a parking metered space, in a parking in a metered space, up to 30 minutes was $12. That's the ticket Georgia got.

From the 1st of October, Georgia, $20. God, that's a big increase. Big increase. 30 minutes to an hour, it used to be 15. Now it's 25. If you overstay in a parking metered space, one to two hours, it used to be 21. It's now 36. Two to four hours. Two to two hours. It used to be 21. It's now 36.

Two to four hours. Two to four hours. It used to be $30 fine. It's now 51. Can I ask, do these mount up? Or is it like, say I've been there for one hour and they come and they give me a ticket and then they come back and I'm there still there two hours later.

Yeah, they mount up. They give you more and more and more. It's not like, oh, get rid of that $12 one. Get rid of that $21 one and give you a $36. No, because I've done this before where I've parked and I've just got ticket after ticket after ticket after ticket. So it goes up. So more than six hours, it used to be $57.

Now it's $97. Now, if you don't pay... Hey, this will get everybody back into the central city. Yeah, this will get everybody back to those areas they want everyone to go back to. Okay, here's the fine if you don't put money in the meter or you don't use your parking app.

It used to be $40. For just parking and being like, meh. Yeah, meh. I'm only going to be half an hour. I reckon I'll get away with it. Yeah, who cares? It's now $70. If you just parked up on the footpath,

you would just like, couriers, pay attention to this one. Unsafe parking to pedestrians or other vehicles used to be $60. It's now $100. Parking on the footpath, so this is different maybe. If you park on the footpath but it's not dangerous, it used to be $60. It used to be, sorry, $40.

Now it's $70. Now if you park in a mobility park, it used to be $150. And this is the only one I'm like, you know what? If you're stupid enough to do this and affect the people that need these car parks, you deserve to pay now $750. What?

What? Yeah, so if you're one of these pricks in a ute that's always parking in a mobility space. Actually though, yeah. Because there's always only like one to three of those things. And people do need them. What about the parents with prams car parks? They're still not fining you for that.

Yeah, if you're going to park in any car park, get parking that way. What? Park in the parents' ones. Yeah, but those are the... That's why your buggy's got wheels. Yeah, right.
