The Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley Big Pod.
Great things are brewing at McCafe.
The perfect start to every day.
Good morning, welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Happy Monday.
Another day, another day.
Yep.
Yep.
Yep.
I'm really looking forward to this week, actually.
Big week.
Big week.
Doing a reset.
Are you?
What are you resetting?
Well, I just forgot about the gym.
Forgot that it's just a row.
Right.
Just a row.
Okay.
I'm going to go to the gym.
Right.
I'm going to prioritise my sleep, my gut health.
Yep.
I'm going to have some fermented goods.
Yep.
Good.
And then on Thursday, I'm just going to blow it all away.
Blow it all away.
Yeah. Okay. And then you Thursday I'm just going to blow it all away. Blow it all away. Yeah. Okay.
And then you can have another reset next week. And I always keep resetting.
I think that's how it works.
Yeah. Good way to live. I'm starting
off this week with the best of intentions.
I will say... We do have a
cream egg test on the show today. Yeah.
We are going to be doing the cream egg test.
And I do have some hotty crossy buns.
I'd love to just shove in the oven for us.
Put a cream egg in the middle of the hot cross bun.
See, now.
And toast that bad boy.
Should we reset tomorrow?
Just reset.
Yep.
I'll do a reset on Wednesday.
Best intentions.
You've started with the best intentions.
Oh, my God, the best intentions.
Coming up on the show,
Instagram have given us a new toggle.
A little toggle. I love a toggle.
I've slid the toggle this morning. I tell you what,
this is going to make people
very happy, this new thing Instagram are doing.
I've slid the toggle already.
Yeah, same. I jumped right in there
as soon as I heard of this new toggle. I'm going to tell you what this
is very soon on the show.
Yes. Also, coming up, the top six.
Yeah, there was a scrap
on the Waiheke ferry. The 11 o'clock ferry. Oh, coming up, the top six. Yeah, there was a scrap on the Waiheke ferry.
The 11 o'clock ferry.
Oh, God.
Have you ever taken the 11 o'clock ferry back from Waiheke on a weekend?
I've taken the 10 o'clock back, and it was absolute carnage.
Wow.
What's that Instagram, Ponder Boat?
Ponder Boat.
If you don't follow the Instagram.
That's been quiet for a while, though.
It has, yeah.
Yeah, I think we kind of came across that when they'd already finished their regular poster.
They wrapped up.
I know, real shame.
I'll let the top six things that that fight was about.
Next on the show, though.
The owner of the Saltburn Estate has a message.
Play.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Taylor Swift on ZM.
It's not over yet because there's one more Sydney show left
we were just saying gosh she must be tired
must be so tired
oh my lord I'm tired
I would have packed a shit by now
yeah same I would have been like
dance monkey dance monkey not gonna dance today
no not today
I know she's loving it but god it must be hard to summon the energy
on some days, surely.
Oh, my God.
But then imagine having like 80, 90, 70,000 people just spread.
Oh, it'll pump you up once you're done.
Yeah, you'd be on cloud nine.
Yeah.
I reckon I'd tell them to calm down.
I'd be like, not today.
You guys are a bit much.
I don't think you're, you're not built to be a pop star.
Nope.
No.
No part of me.
Wouldn't he?
Now, his name is
Charles Lionel Stopford
Sackville.
Charles Lionel
Stopford Sackville
and he is the real life
owner of
the Saltburn House
which is called Drayton House.
Oh the big manor.
I would call it a castle.
It's an estate. It's somewhat Drayton House. Oh, the big manor. The manor. I would call it a castle. A castle, yeah.
I would call it a castle.
Yeah, it is.
It's somewhat of a castle.
He inherited it.
He's quite wealthy himself.
Like, he works in finance or something like that.
But he inherited it from his father.
He's really, like, he just comes from wealth.
Yeah.
As you would if you were a school.
Generational.
Private school, obviously, yes.
Anyway, he has expressed how much regret he is feeling right now
for renting out his house because it is just being bombarded by tourists.
This is the house in Saltburn.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's the Saltburn house.
It's a 700-year-old house or castle.
And he rented it out to the production for a lofty fee, I'm told.
And his one thing...
Probably because he's got property tax that he has to pay on it.
Or what do they call it when you...
It's another word for like a part of a church.
Churches don't pay tax.
No, but churches own the land, right?
The Church of England owns the land,
and you're just like long-term leasing it. Parish. Parish tax. Right. Right, right, right the land, right? The Church of England owns the land and you're just like long-term leasing it.
Parish.
Parish tax.
Right.
Right, right, right, right, right.
I'm not sure of those details, darling.
But he said, yeah, he got a good fee for it
and his only rule was that he didn't want anyone
in any kind of press to say where the actual house was.
But people, it's like ginormous.
Yeah, you're going to gonna find that so they figured it
out yeah and he's been bombarded with like trespassers who are not just like going to the
gate and having a little further darling but they're jumping over the fence and like filming
tiktok videos of them dancing to murder on the dance floor and like breaking into his property
he had to like hire all this extra security to kind of man the surroundings of this place.
And he was like,
I really wish I hadn't rented it out, darling.
It's been a nightmare.
The money hasn't been worth the problem.
I didn't really need the money.
Look at me.
I'm absolutely foolish, darling.
But he did say,
because he was like,
look, when they asked me,
he said these houses don't run on water.
So he must have a big output to own a house like this.
I remember that's what heaps of those shows where they fall into disrepair.
And people are like, how the hell did they fall into disrepair?
And they tell you how much it costs a year to maintain, staff, get everything done.
And it's so huge, those places.
Like even if you had a family of five or six,
it would still,
like,
some of those.
You'd rattle about in that.
Oh God,
yeah.
I mean,
it's absolutely,
it's an amazing house,
but he's always said
that he never.
Couple of bloody communists here.
Who cares if I've got
way too much money
and room for my.
You don't need that.
I worked hard
to be born
into a family of wealth.
You did work hard
right from the,
from the, from the ball sack.
You were working very hard.
Very hard.
I won the race.
You were number one.
I worked bloody hard to earn all this family inheritance.
His review of Saltburn is,
there were bits that I liked
and bits that I wouldn't necessarily have put in myself,
but look, it's not my film.
It's a great way of saying it.
We had a man dancing nude around his house too, didn't he?
Yeah, he did.
Right at the end, spoiler alert.
Amongst other more wild things.
Okay, well, if you're planning a trip to the Saltburn estate,
maybe that's part of your European holiday.
Yeah, perhaps.
When you hit the UK, stay at the gate.
Stay at the gate.
Have some respect.
This is a privately owned boat and I'm trying to enjoy my riches.
Next on the show, Instagram has a new toggle, which a lot of us are going to love.
We've already turned it on.
We've already slid it over.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Instagram.
I'm familiar with it.
My social media choice.
It have given you the option now to toggle read receipts
for your Instagram messages.
Fantastic.
So this is when someone sends you a message,
you see it, it says read.
Yes.
And then they haven't replied,
but they have read the old saying,
they've left me on read.
They've left me on read.
Or seen, left me on seen.
Yeah, I hate that.
I hate being left on read.
But now you won't know because you've got the option to turn it off.
And people have wanted this forever.
Now, I am just looking up my, okay, interesting, looking up mine.
So now that I've turned mine off, my read receipts,
Yes.
seen, I can no longer see other people's.
Like, do you know what I mean?
So if I message you right now, Hayley, on Instagram, I'll be like, hey.
No, but we've both turned them off.
Yeah.
I haven't turned mine off yet.
Okay.
Vaughn, you message me too because I've turned mine off.
Yeah.
While we're on the subject, maybe if you could start
reading messages
people send you
because I'm getting messages
being like,
hey, Hayley doesn't reply
or read her messages.
Can you tell her this
or ask her this?
I'm not.
Yeah, you do.
I'm just not.
I don't.
I know.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm not a person.
Okay, I've messaged you, Vaughn.
Okay, I've had a look.
Do you need to send a picture
of your penis straight away?
Oh, for God's sake,
Fletcher,
I don't need to see that
this early in the bloody morning.
I told you about this.
Oh, look. Oh, for God's sake. It's fantastic, by don't need to see that this early in the bloody morning. 6.16. Oh, look.
Oh, for God's sake.
That's fantastic, by the way.
Okay, you've read?
I've read, but I can't.
No, it doesn't say that.
I'll say, hey.
Wait, it doesn't say that you've read mine.
Okay, and then Vaughan, I've read yours.
Does it say?
Doesn't say.
Doesn't say.
What if I say yo-yo and you see it because you haven't turned yours off yet?
No, I haven't.
I can see yo-yo.
I've read that.
So if you turn them off, you can't see them either as an exchange.
Oh, no, I don't like that because now I want to know.
I want to know too.
Oh, guys, you can't have it both ways.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
But what if you're doing a flirt and then you're sitting there checking your posts all the time?
So if you...
Just talking on behalf of a friend.
That sounded really specific.
That sounded really specific.
Just saying.
Someone's left me on read.
Hypothetically, the person would be...
Hypothetically.
Let's give them a name.
Jason.
We'll just go...
Let's go...
Jace.
Jason.
That sounds a bit white.
We need to give them an exotic last name.
Maybe Mamor.
No, maybe...
Yeah, like something...
Yeah, like...
Okay, so hypothetically, if a friend was to send Jason Mamor a message, maybe, yeah, like something, yeah, like. Okay, so hypothetically,
if a friend was to send Jason Mamor a message.
Hypothetically.
She wants to be able to see when it's being seen.
Yeah.
But you can't do that if you toggle.
If you toggle that on.
I think I'm going to toggle back on.
You're going to toggle back off.
Also, considering, I'm going to toggle,
I'm going to turn the toggle off,
especially because, yeah, but what if they toggle on?
Yeah, then you're screwed. Everyone's going to toggle on. I hate this. Everyone's going to turn the toggle off, especially because, yeah, but what if they toggle on? Yeah, then you're screwed.
Everyone's going to toggle on.
I hate this.
Everyone's going to toggle on.
I was not on this, and I've done a complete 180.
It's only taken you two minutes to do a 180 on that.
Don't do a 180.
So if you do want to turn off read receipts on Instagram.
No, shush, don't.
Let's just boycott this.
You tap the messenger icon top right, and it's under direct message. Privacy and safety.
You can go in that way.
You'll find it easy.
Lame.
And then you can toggle it on or off.
But then if you do, as we say, off, you won't be able to see any read receipts.
You can't just take, take, take.
Yeah.
It's give and take.
Interesting from them to do that, all or nothing.
Really interesting.
Yeah, sorry to everyone that I don't reply to my Instagram DMs, by the way.
Can't be bothered.
I just got one, though.
This isn't, I'm changing my ways.
This is, I simply won't change my ways.
What does that one say?
Oh, it's just, I've just got people,
neighborhood watch.
I've just got people on the watch.
I've just got people on the lookout.
Oh, right, if they see a certain someone.
If they just see something that might spark my interest.
Right.
I've got people on watch.
Oh, gotcha.
Play ZM's Fletchford and Haley.
Blah, blah, blah.
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
This is the top six.
Waiheke Island Ferry turns around
after a fight breaks out amongst passengers.
It was the Follis Island Ferry turns around after a fight breaks out amongst passengers. It was the fullest 360 ferry.
It just left the terminal at 11pm.
Is that the last one?
Yeah.
I think I've been on the 10 o'clock a couple of times.
The 9 and the 10, they're always wild because people have been at the Wainareas all day.
All day in the sun.
Or at the Hensdews. All day in the sub. Or at the hens' do's.
Yes.
Hens' parties.
Must be.
The bane.
The stag do's as well.
And there's either people that are passed out in the seats because they've had a full day
and they don't want any more partying.
We definitely had a little shut-eye after Vaughan's 40th.
And then there are the people that are still going because they're kicking on in town.
Yuck.
And it's loud.
Well, the fight broke out on the upper deck.
I've got the top six things.
Someone could have gone bloody overboard, couldn't they?
Top six things the Waiheke Ferry Island fight was about.
Number six on the list.
Seems somebody got their eyes for Christmas and loves using them.
Number five on the list of the top six things the Waiheke Island
theory fight was about.
Remember those eyes
that person got for Christmas?
Turns out they were using them
to gawk at his missus.
Oh.
That'll do it.
That'll absolutely kick it off.
Yeah.
And the eyes.
Is it too late to return
the eyes you got for Christmas?
Now that one's black.
Who knows?
Number four on the list
of the top six things
the Waiheke Island fairy fight was about.
Someone was not upping the waz.
Wow.
And this is our year.
Oh, okay.
I throw punches.
Triumphal won over the Dolphins at the weekend.
Dolphins.
Yeah, I know.
It's a bit embarrassing.
Dolphins.
Wait, is there a team called the Dolphins?
Yeah, Central Coast Dolphins.
How long has that been a team for?
No, not too long.
Big slippery horny animals.
It might be the newest team in the NRL. Right. It's not a very sick team. Dolphins. How long has that been a team for? No, not too long. Big slippery horny animals. It might be the newest team in the NRL.
Right.
It's not a very sick team.
It's not as threatening because you've got the sharks.
These are Miami Dolphins, though, eh?
Yeah, the Miami Dolphins play American football.
I don't know, but for some reason the Dolphins...
They're not very aggressive.
It's not an aggressive...
No, you've got your Tigers, you've got your Sharks.
Warriors.
Yeah, Storm.
Dumb name.
Melbourne Storm.
Yeah, but at least it's ferocious, you know? A storm is ferocious. Yeah. Dolphins are... It's hard to draw a mascot. Yeah, Storm. Dumb name. Melbourne Storm. Yeah, but at least it's ferocious, you know?
A storm is ferocious.
Yeah.
Dolphins have a little...
It's hard to draw a mascot.
Yeah.
Smiley, sort of slippery little things.
Up on their tail.
Yeah, going around.
All right.
Broncos.
They're not just called the Brisbane Ponies, are they?
No.
The Broncos is a ferocious version.
Weird.
The Langsford Llamas, you know?
Yeah.
You don't have those.
I'd be a pain in the ass
Screaming things
Number three on the list
Of the top six things
The Waiheke Island
Farrah Fart was about
Yes darling
Something that happened
In 2012
Weird how people
Remember things
From over a decade ago
When they lose their ability
To keep their balance
I'm not looking at
Anybody in particular
A woman
Oh are we
Are we getting into it
Are we No We're getting into it Are we
No
Getting into it
Are we
Let's talk about your ex
Who you literally met
Before I met you
Yeah
Why did you do that to me
And why were you with her
Before me
Yeah
I wouldn't
I would never do that to you
Yeah
Prank I don't do that to you. Yeah. Prick.
I didn't love anybody when I was a little girl.
Number two on the list of the top six things the Waiheke Island fairy fight was about.
Someone got the last rubbery pie.
Oh, no.
You need your supplements on the way back.
All the food over there is so fancy.
Yeah.
Lots of tapas.
Yeah.
Never really fills you up, doesn't it?
Just give me a burger
yeah
give me some
fat fries
give me some
fatty fries
yeah
nice
chachotere board
yeah
I'm gonna need
a lot more
all at once
I'm gonna need
some mashed
potatoes
yes
and number one
on the list
of the top six
things the
Waiheke Island
fairy fight
was about
a pirate
themed party
got out of
hand
people were
taking their
roles very seriously.
Yeah.
You know, up there as pirates.
They may have been aborting.
Yeah.
Now we're out in international waters.
But they weren't.
They were barely away from the terminal.
Police got them anyway.
Did you?
Police met them at the ferry terminal?
Ah.
Dragged some people off.
God, the one policeman on Waiheke would have had to wake up.
I know.
11 o'clock.
God, and he'd already been at the wineries all day as well.
Yeah.
So he'd tousled on Rosé.
Probably just somebody else had to drive.
What do you do if you're the one policeman in town,
and it's your day off, but then you're needed?
Catch an Uber.
Oh, no, because there's no Ubers on the island.
Catch a very expensive taxi.
Yeah.
One of those like tuk-tuk ones.
Yeah, that'd be good.
You could get there.
Catch a bit of fresh air on the way too.
Sober up a little bit.
Have some PK.
Yeah.
Let's go.
Get that breath.
Fresh.
That's today's top six.
Friday was the big day.
We're our very own Jared
Jeremiah Pickstock
not his middle name
was going to Valentine's
it is
one of the
what did we work out there
they find remaining
Valentine's
in the country
in
Wairoa Valley
in Auckland
on the north shore of Auckland
for a Valentine's
Valentine's
delayed
feast
yes
we gave our advice.
Strategic.
Payday was Friday.
Yep.
Less bookings.
Less bookings.
Very quiet.
Because it was booked out on Valentine's Day, wasn't it?
Lunch and dinner.
Wow.
Now let's go.
We've got some photos here in the inbox.
Fletch, if you could open those up.
I've just sent through a critical plate analysis.
And firstly, before we get to the plate,
let's talk about the fact that they did have
a margarine sculpture
and it was a giant dragon
holding some sort
of crystal ball.
That's not margarine.
One, two, three, four.
That's what they always say, right?
You had five plates of food.
There was a sixth,
but it was like,
I didn't get through
much of it.
Well, because that was
our concern as our wee Jared.
He doesn't eat much.
Yeah.
He doesn't eat much.
I feel like I did a great job.
Yeah, I'm proud of you, hon.
Plate one.
We've got some carved ham there.
Were they carving it off the bone?
They had carved it off the bone.
Pre-carved.
God damn it.
I like mine carved under a hot lamp.
God, look how cute and tiny these portions are.
Oh, no, they're man-sized portions.
We've got some Parmesan crusted potatoes with a look of it.
Maybe a meatball there. Yeah, sweet and sour meatballs. Oh, yeah, I love man-sized portions. We've got some Parmesan crusted potatoes with a look of it. Maybe a meatball there.
Yeah, sweet and sour meatballs.
Oh yeah, I love sweet and sour meatballs.
That's my mum and mum's specialty.
A macaroni elbow pasta salad.
Yeah, I wouldn't have gone for the pasta salad.
That looks rough.
It was very nice, to be honest.
Oh really?
Tiny amount there.
It's a filler.
There are carrots in this macaroni elbow salad.
Bizarre.ots, juliet
Sweet, it's nice
Next plate
What I would say is about a sixth of a corn cob
A dismally sized barbecue skewer
That looks primarily non-meat
It looks vegetarian
Shriveled red onion and mushroom
And what have we got there beside the corn?
Is that a ball of...
That is a takoyaki ball, which I've never tried,
and I just wanted to see what it was.
Yum.
Takoyaki, that's it.
It wasn't bad.
Japanese.
And then a steak with some sear marks on it.
But was that well done or medium well?
I asked for medium rare, but I got medium.
Medium rare.
Often you will. Often you will.
Often you will.
You want to see a bit of pink.
Third plate.
Four linked brew.
Those look like breakfast sausages.
You had four sausages.
Little wee breakfast sausages.
And you've gone back for more parmesan potatoes.
They were really good.
You're eating a lot of carbs, though.
You're eating a lot of filler carbs.
And you've got a broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, cheesy sort of a...
It was a little vegetable mornay.
A mornay.
Yeah, yeah.
Is that a solo nugget?
I don't know what that is.
No, it looks like a dollop of mustard.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
To go with the aforementioned four-lick sausages.
Yeah.
They didn't even split the sausages.
Next plate, he's gone back for some more sweet and sour meatballs.
They obviously hit pretty hard on the first plate.
Some chippies.
What are these?
Are these chicken tenders or fish bites?
Those are fish goujons.
Fish goujons.
I'm hitting it.
Is that a classic tomato sauce?
Yeah, just a thick blob.
It's a thick cut.
And also, the first time I snuck into a photo there,
I see your bottomless Coke.
Yeah, but they've changed.
You don't get to keep the cups anymore.
They just give you a paper cup.
Paper.
We're in a Cozy Libby cry.
This is a romantic Valentine's Day,
and you're having a paper cup.
Yeah, paper cup, paper straw.
Paper straw.
A lot of food for you, Producer Jarrod.
It's a lot of food.
I'm so proud of you.
Did you eat all this?
I did.
The last photo you've sent us is the dessert.
And what a dismal pud this is.
Apple crumble.
Apple crumble is my favourite dessert.
And to be honest, I shouldn't have had dessert.
I was barely walking.
So I just powered through to the apple crumble.
And what's in a lotus?
And it was a pinocchia.
A what?
Pannacotta?
Yeah, that's the one.
Pinnocchia. A what? Panna cotta? Yeah, that's the one. Pinnocchia.
I've never seen one before.
I will never call it panna cotta again.
Pinnocchia.
Pinnocchia.
Pinnocchia.
Is it a lotus biscuit pinocchia?
Yeah, a little lotus biscuit pinocchia.
Okay.
It was quite nice.
Any free jelly beans?
No.
What was on the plate
That you've not got the photo of
That you said you didn't finish it
So you don't feel like it belongs in this album
I got a little cup of jelly
I got a little cup of mousse
And there was like
It's the mud brownie
But I only had like a teaspoon of that
Alright
Good from you Jared
Really good from you
What did the midi think of this romantic evening
You took her on? I reckon she
rated it. I think she thought it was the best date we've
had because it was just like an hour and a half.
All we did was eat and talk about
food. But what did she eat?
Because it's just broccoli. No, no, no. She eats
seafood and they had like a live
cook seafood bit. So she went and got like
crabs and shrimp and stuff.
Okay, okay, okay. Great.
Would you go again?
Is this going to become an annual tradition?
Yes, it is.
Yeah.
I like that.
Yeah, pretty cute, guys.
Maybe we could join one day.
Now, what did you strategically,
we spoke about what you'd eat before leading up.
Did you drink a lot of water?
Did you skip lunch?
Yep.
I had a brunch.
Okay.
And then I drank a lot during the day.
So I had a few glasses of water.
I had a little smoothie just to kind of...
Oh, yeah.
Expand the tummy.
Liquid, liquid.
God, it's been a while since I've done a buffet.
This is a good idea from you.
We should do a show buffet.
Yeah, I'm down for a show buffet.
Let's do it.
Only forgot Pinocchio though.
Okay. forgot Pinocchio though.
Silly Little Polls Silly little pole.
Should social media be banned for under 16s?
It was a yes or a no.
US states thinking of doing it.
Correct?
Yes.
What is it at the moment?
13?
That's all.
If your kids have got social media and they won't get off it,
just report them to Instagram.
It's 13, but it's put in by Meta and the social media companies, right?
Yes. There's no actual law.
You have to be 13.
And lots of younger kids have it.
They just lie about their age, right?
Totally.
They just get around it.
Yeah.
So this is looking at being a law in Florida, in the state of Florida.
Right.
They've passed a bill banning social media.
Before 16, you two wouldn't have had any social media.
No, there wasn't even the internet.
When I, I think...
Oh, there was the internet when you were late teens.
Yeah, I went on the internet for the first time
at a public library at like 15,
but no one I knew had it in their house.
Nah.
See, I was a little bit later and I had my space at 16. That was
huge. But it was sort
of different. It was
sort of different in the way you interacted. It was
less like chatty. Yeah.
And more just like posts.
Someone might see that within the next three days.
Yeah. And then they might post
back. But like, how good
is it that our lives have been documented?
That's the thing.
It's not the bullying. It's not anything.
It's the fact that I would have video recorded
and uploaded every dumb thing I did
and it would have haunted me and
followed me forever. Yeah.
Like it's bad enough just seeing a Facebook
status from like the 2010s
and you're like oh my god.
Like 10 years ago and you're like
hardly no one cares.
No one cares what you're saying.
There's always going to be bullying.
Granted, it's harder to escape on social media.
Like there was bullying at school
and then you went home and you could, you know,
just be at home and not have it.
Until they got your phone number.
Or unless they called your home line.
And they called the phone line.
Prank called you.
Yeah, and you'd be like, hello?
And they'd be like, you suck.
And you'd be like, no I don't.
And hang up. Well, that's a big you'd be like, no, I don't. And hang up.
Well, that's a big part of this bill is for mental health.
Yeah.
I voted yes, it should be banned.
Should social media be banned for under 16s?
88% of people said yes.
12% of people said no.
88%.
Wow.
Kayla said, caught my 13-year-old telling a chick he loves them
after playing some online stupid game.
He's such a dumbass.
Oh, that's so shame.
That's shame, Derek. Shame.
You don't even know what love is.
Dan says,
I'm a primary school deputy principal,
and social media is one of the most annoying parts of my job.
Primary school.
Yeah, wow.
So even if it's one of those primary schools,
go through an intermediate.
That's crazy.
Who knew in 2024 they would be teasing
over what scent impulse you were wearing?
To be honest, that's been around since the 90s, Dan.
I remember someone was still on Lynx Oriental.
Will you say that?
Yeah, there it is.
Oriental.
I know, it's so bizarre.
You're allowed to call them that?
Feels odd saying it.
It doesn't feel right.
The scent was called Orient or Orient.
Links of the Orient?
Yeah.
There's one on eBay that's for sale, a retro can.
Oh, lordy.
So someone was still on that when the rest of us had moved on to voodoo in Africa.
And boy, there was some mocking going on there.
Nothing like the smell of the Orient.
I believe the purple one, Lynx, is now called Excite.
Oh.
Yeah.
Boo, PC Magnus.
So they moved it away from Oriental.
Crisp coconut and black pepper scent.
No.
Excuse me.
Black pepper's going to be something you'd put on a, like, shrimp.
Imagine shrimp, crisp coconut, crisp coconut and black pepper.
Yeah, I'm on board.
Yeah, now that sounds good, doesn't it?
I'm on board.
Hayley says, social media causes issues to adults, let alone as kids.
Facebook just came in when I'd hit high school and I wish I'd never did it.
Yeah.
Gel says, regulations will probably be more effective than bans.
It's the thing, you ban something, don't you?
They just make it more enticing.
And then all the kids start email groups.
Oh.
Email groups.
Or like blogs.
Or like chat rooms.
And then they'll be printing their own zines.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Not the zines.
I heard a podcast, that song I love,
the 60 songs that explain the 90s podcast.
Yeah.
It's almost finished.
And he's done an episode on what songs he should have put in it that he didn't.
Which is a great episode because everyone's just ragging on him.
Yeah.
For 90s sitters that he missed.
And he talks to a guy and this guy was like, oh, yeah, back when I was printing zines.
And everybody laughs.
And I was like, do you remember?
Every school had a kid that was making their own little magazines.
Their little zines.
I made a little zine.
What was your zine about?
I can't remember. I think it was like Dolly Mag.
Like boys and Spice Girls
and stuff like that. I made a zine.
I was too lazy. But there was paper
and you'd staple the edge.
And I could see who wanted one.
Yeah, that's such good stuff.
It would be such a hard
thing to police, says Biddy.
I don't know how you'd effectively ban them from it.
No, said Moana.
They're doing the same stuff previous generations did.
Parents need to step up and stop trying to be their kids' friends
and be their parents.
They still require oversight and boundaries.
Oh, yeah.
It is.
It's just the modern version of teasing someone
because they're still wearing links oriental.
I don't know if we're saying it.
I don't know.
Can I call him that?
I'm not saying it.
I'm not saying it.
Logan said,
it is a good point.
I say we ban it for under 16s,
but also ban it for over 50s.
Slow spread of conspiracies and scams on Facebook
needs to be taken more seriously.
Yeah.
I think we could all just not be on social media.
How's about that?
How's about it?
How's about that for an idea?
Yeah.
It would be great.
Shannon would be out of a job, though. Are you happy with her on that employment? No, about that? How's about it? How's about that for an idea? Yeah. It would be great. Shannon would be out of a job though.
Are you happy
Oh, we like Shannon.
No, we like Shannon.
Unemployment.
Q?
Shannon could do other things.
What about like
snacks?
Do you want to be on snacks
if you can't do socials?
I like that, yeah.
And cuddles.
Snacks and cuddles.
Yeah, I can do that.
I'll make you some stuff.
I think we're banning social media.
We're also banning cuddling
in the workplace. I'll make you something. Biscoff can do that. I think we're banning social media. We're also banning cuddling in the workplace.
I'll bake you something. Biscoff lolly cake.
Yes!
New title. Thank you.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn
and Hayley. Travis Kelsey
who is a sports
person. American footballer.
Is that what you call it? No, he's just Taylor Swift's
boyfriend. He's an American footballer.
American footballer. Won the Super Bowl.
And he is indeed the boyfriend of the one and only Taylor Swift.
Who, by the way, still has another show to go in Sydney.
I thought that was done last night.
I just feel so tired for her.
The show's like three and a half hours, isn't it, Carwen?
And she's doing that every single night.
And then people saw her.
Wasn't she like
out on a date or something?
Yeah, so Travis was in Melbourne.
I mean, Sydney, watching her
first show in Sydney. And then afterwards
she was spotted by some very nosy paps
just going for a boat date with him.
Go to bed! Do you know as soon as I
saw that she'd gone to the zoo, I was like, oh,
she wasn't thinking about that. And then
three, two, one, Peter. And she went
twice. Oh, yeah. She went twice.
Yeah, she went with her dancers and
the next day Travis arrived and she's like, let's go to the zoo
again. Did they shut down the whole zoo for her?
I think, so I found out that it's
not Taronga Zoo.
It's another one that's at Nairn. Now, that's not
Karwin saying Tauranga wrong.
No. Taronga. Offhorn, it's
Tauranga. Isn't it two. Isn't it Tauranga?
There's two Tauranga Zoos.
Is there? There's the one in the city and then there's the one on the outskirts. It's a bit more like
a safari park. Yeah, one of them isn't
actually associated. Anyway, she was at that one.
So I think it's a bit more private. Maybe they
can shut it down. Right.
As opposed to the full thing. Yeah. Because what if
I was in Sydney and I wanted to see the monkeys?
Because if you were Taylor Swift, you'd be like, I just want to put my hands
around and pat the tigers.
Yeah, and I'm Taylor Swift
so I should be allowed to.
Yeah, the tiger will take a hand.
We don't want that.
Of everything you've got.
You've got quokkas there.
You'd pat a quokka, wouldn't you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, so Travis Kelsey,
they've only been dating
for like less than a year,
I think, or something,
or, you know,
like not that long.
In 2016,
he did an interview for this TV show
and it has been recirculating online.
Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry.
Kill, marry, kiss.
Ariana is kill, unfortunately.
And then Taylor Swift would be the kiss
and then Katy Perry would be the...
Yeah, Katy Perry would be the marry.
Okay, so there's so much
to unpack
because
when Ariana Grande
straight kill
I mean
you know
you have to
imagine if he
had killed Taylor
you know
like imagine
if he just
at that point
wasn't a fan
or like
you know
like
he didn't know
but he's not
marrying her
he's not
marrying her
and remember
Katy Perry
and Taylor Swift
had a bit of
beef
though that's been squashed and Katy Perry and Taylor Swift had a bit of beef.
Though, that's been squashed.
And Katy Perry was actually at one of the Sydney shows as well.
Was she at a Sydney show?
Yeah, they saw a photo of them at the weekend.
Yeah, she was there being like, lovely to watch an old friend.
Again, makes the timing of that interview resurfacing even better.
But if you were in that situation, they do this on Love Island as well.
If you were in that situation, would you want your boyfriend to want to kiss you?
And we know this is the PG version of this game. Yes.
It's usually FMK.
Would you want them to want to kiss you or shag you or to marry you?
Because I don't know.
Do I want to be marriage material or do I want to –
because that means that he would have wanted to shag or kiss Katy Perry.
But he doesn't want to settle down with you because maybe you're a little crazy.
I know.
Maybe you are a little cray-cray.
Maybe he just wants a quick little kiss or shag.
Anyway, that is awkward.
But it's better than him having said he'd kill.
And then also.
Imagine, you just couldn't come back from that.
And then this is the same day that he's at the concert.
Is he hiding when Katy Perry's around?
Yeah, you wouldn't be.
You wouldn't be like running up for a hug, would you?
And then Taylor's all like,
why are you just get married?
Oh, you know, because she's tired too.
If she's tired, she'll be irritable.
She's tired too.
I mean, she's on a world tour.
She's would have had a few menstrual cycles in there as well.
So you say hi to her.
Why don't you just marry her?
Yeah, why don't you just marry her?
You've wanted to for the last eight years.
Quarter past seven.
Next on the show, much to Vaughan's delight,
we actually spent almost the entire weekend together.
I thought you didn't want a social weekend.
I didn't.
I didn't.
No, but we went.
You forced yourself on him.
We went to the Hellensville show.
And boy, oh boy, was it a fun time.
AMP shows, they're so nostalgic but first
let's chat
about the weekend
Vaughan and I
went to the
Helensville show
Helensville show
yeah
not invited again
100 you were
you were
you were
you were
quote
I'm not coming all that way for some cow bullshit or something along those lines.
Something like that.
You sounded like a lot of animals and cows.
Yeah, I'm not coming all that way for blah, insert thing here.
Yeah.
There were beautiful cows.
Oh, there were some gorgeous cows.
And there were prized sheepies.
I think one of the biggest cows I've ever seen in my life.
Like the hottest cow you've ever seen.
One of them was sexy.
A sexy cow?
One of the cows, a female,
had a bit of like
eye makeup
and big lashes.
And nothing bothered her.
It was sexy indifference.
Okay.
And then she'd sort of look
and be like,
are you like this?
I bet you do.
Am I the biggest cow
you've seen?
Interesting.
Interesting.
She's a huge cow.
Right.
And there were sheepies
and the pride,
like you were looking
at all the sheepies
and then you got to the one
that won the prize
and you're like,
I see it. I can see why. I see why. And I was patting it. Why at all the sheepies and then you got to the one that won the prize and you're like, I see it.
I can see why you're the prize sheep.
Okay.
You said not to touch the competitors.
Oh, really?
It was the same in the strongman competition.
You were allowed to watch, but you weren't allowed to touch.
Well, no one told me.
You were very handsy with the strongmen too.
Oh my God.
There was a strongman competition.
Yeah, because last, the previous years
there's been the axe, the wood chopping people. Yes.
And I was like, oh, it's the wood chopping people, but I didn't see any wood
and then I saw the t-shirts they were wearing. Strongman competition.
I was like, I'll watch this.
When I arrived,
because you were a little bit earlier than us,
when I arrived,
there was a woman and she was up there first.
There was only a couple of female competitors.
God, she was jacked.
So what do they do for the strongman?
Hayley, very excited.
Yeah.
Well, there's various different disciplines of what to do.
One was carrying, like, a really heavy bag.
And I'm talking, like, there was a guy that was 80 kgs
carrying a 120 kg bag.
What?
Yeah, dude.
Yeah.
And then the first one we saw was getting these bags
and putting them on their shoulder,
and then they had to drop them on the ground
and pick them up from their shoulder.
And pick it up again.
How many times you could do it in a minute?
But they were so heavy.
And my God, some of the dudes, their thighs.
They were strong men.
But you'd taken your own strong man.
Yes.
And he could have, if there had been,
he could have eaten a sausage eating competition.
Literally every time I saw him,
he was eating a different sausage.
So we turned up
and we were a little bit dusty as well
because the night before we'd been at the pub
with the Smiths.
And Aaron, we got there and we were like,
we just need a little bit of food to get us started.
Not the main event food, but just something.
And we went to one of those American stands
and I got a corn dog.
Aaron got a corn dog, so that's sausage number one.
And then he got an American style hot dog.
Now that's sausage number two.
And then we walked around a little bit.
We're like, let's get some proper food,
like go to the little food trucks, whatnot.
And then as we were sort of deciding, Aaron
saw a, was it like
SPCA or something like that
and they had a sausage sizzle.
And he was like, well, I'll go support.
Came back and I said, did you get me one? And he said,
no, no. So we had two.
Two from just a barbecue sausage sizzle.
Then
what was the other one he got?
Did he get another corn dog? Didn't he get a European style?
Then there were the bratwurst sausages.
How many sausages does this man eat?
He had six.
He had six sausages all up.
Six sausages.
That's a great effort.
And in my head I was thinking, little doth he know.
Well, I got sausages in the fridge for dinner.
So we were sausage.
It was a big day of sausages.
It was a sausage heavy Saturday.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then I would say my favourite thing,
which I posted on social media,
was they gathered all the terriers that were there.
If you had a terrier of any kind, they had a terrier race.
How many terriers are there?
Like 30, 40?
There was like 30, 40 of them.
What?
And they got them all in a line across a ginormous paddock
and there's a guy on a mic.
And then they brought out like a quad bike
and they had a little bag tied to it.
And the farmer, and he'd been farmer of the year in 2022.
Okay.
His sister in 2023.
And he was going to drive and they were going to say,
go, and then you were going to release your terrier
and then it was a race to the other side.
And you had one owner on one side and one owner with a dog.
As you can imagine...
No good if you're a solo dog parent.
Yeah.
No one to wait for your dog at the other end, you know?
Yeah, if your dog came from a broken home.
It's tough.
It was really tough.
Maybe this could rekindle your love, though.
Yeah.
Could do.
The terrier race at the Helensville show.
Well, it was, they said, three, two, one, go.
And the quad bike took off.
And you can just imagine, they're dogs.
So they just literally all just went like, poof, and like dispersed.
There were dogs running into the crowd.
There were people over the speaker being like, we've lost,
someone's lost a terrier.
It was absolute chaos.
Like a Fijian crab race.
Yeah, oh yeah, they just go anywhere.
They literally went anywhere.
Anywhere but where they were supposed to go.
God, it's easy to impress you townies, isn't it?
Here's the good news.
The QMU show is coming up.
Which is bigger and a little bit closer.
Honestly, it's so fun.
We went last year.
There's a lot of very sexy people.
9th and 10th of March.
There's a lot of very sexy people in the show.
Okay.
There's a lot. And they people in this house. Okay. There's a lot.
And they've got like
Ferris rides.
Like they've got little
like woo
like carnival rides.
I'm going.
I'm going.
You're hooked on these
A&P shows now.
I'm hooked on the A&P shows.
There were Highland dancers.
Yeah there was.
They were doing the sword dancing.
Yeah.
Okay.
I loved it.
They don't swing swords around.
I always find that disappointing
about sword dancing.
They dance over swords.
They dance over the swords
but they try not to look at them.
Helicoptering swords.
And cutting a watermelon in half.
Yeah, and that's the thing.
It's like fruit ninja Highland dancing.
Ninja dancing would be good.
And you throw fruit at them and they have to cut the fruit as it comes towards them.
Anyway, do join us for the next AMP show, Fletch, because it really is wholesome fun.
It was at the QMU show that year that Sade hugged the carny.
And I was like, I don't know what's going on here.
There's been zero mention in our long relationship.
She knows him from Hamilton days.
Oh, God, a carny from Hamilton.
So I've got a carny hookup too if we want some free tickets.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm in, I'm in.
Getting a carny hookup.
For the sizzler?
Yeah, they've got the sizzler, my dude.
Yeah, yeah.
Play.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Now, I heard from a young man called Logan on Instagram.
Kia ora, Logan.
Kia ora.
He said, big time PSA.
Okay.
I think the Cadbury cream egg recipe has changed back.
I got one for my wife and I the other day,
and I thought it tasted creamy and smooth
like they used to.
I remember when we've talked about it multiple times
that one stage they changed and they got gritty.
Yes, I googled.
The sugary crystals, you could feel the crystals.
Yes.
2015, they changed the chocolate.
Okay.
And I don't know if that was also the inside,
but I remember at some stage of the year,
the inside felt more crystallized and not the same.
I'll say I've never liked them.
Really?
I used to love them.
Never, ever liked them.
As a kid, you'd always get a pack of like four or whatever,
and I'd put one in each cheek and just let them sit there.
Your poor teeth.
I know.
But they just, for me, they're so sweet.
I don't like the center.
I'd go a caramel egg over that.
Right.
Yeah, caramel scented eggs, yum.
But they've done the white ones, the dream ones from time to time.
Those are good.
Of course you know that.
So Logan said that he thought it but didn't say any.
He just said, what did you think of that cream egg to his wife,
who said, I think they've gone back to the old recipe.
So he said, without even like saying it, and then she agreed independently.
Okay.
They said, and he said, I am also aware this may have been a one-off rogue egg.
We'll be reporting further findings.
To which he then messaged me a few days later saying,
I've had two out of two smooth.
I think the cream eggs back.
Really?
Okay.
Now, have these got smaller or have I got bigger?
I think you've got bigger.
No, I think they're a little bit smaller.
They're 40 grams.
Have they always been 40 grams? I don't know. Because when I was a teenager a little bit smaller. They're 40 grams. Have they always been 40 grams?
I don't know.
Because when I was a teenager.
They would have.
I know, but you were somewhat smaller as a teenager.
Yeah, I wasn't, but.
No.
Yeah, okay.
I've got hands grown.
But I've got man hands now.
Yeah, whereas you had boy hands.
I had boy hands then.
Now you've got man hands.
So, there's a.
We've got a six pack.
We're going to let you know.
Now, so it says on the pack, did you read the back of the pack?
It says made in the ook.
In the ook?
But in Australia.
Made in the ook.
And then assembled.
Through Cadbury.
You assembled.
What do you mean?
Like it's a kit set egg.
Okay, let's have a bite.
Yeah.
Okay, we'll try it out.
Ready?
No, it's have a bite. Yeah. Okay, we'll try it out. Ready? No, it's exactly the same.
You don't like it.
Eat that close to the microphone.
I don't like it at all.
It's not, it's not, this, I remember them being like grunny.
Not grunny, this is like, they've been in the fridge.
This has got, it's very similar.
Full of grit.
You've got a lot of grit. You've got a lot of grit.
I've got a lot of grit.
I'm about to tongue my cream egg.
I'm going to go off mic to tongue the cream egg
because I'm getting too much chocolate
because I went in from the top.
And now I just need to get the creamy centre.
I'm going to look away.
It's looking gritty.
He's looking you deep in the eye.
It's the same.
I don't see a difference.
Yeah.
Okay, some feedback from the producers.
Maybe less grit though. Maybe a little less grit. Maybe less grit. As gooey as it was. Yeah. Okay, some feedback from the producers. Maybe less grit, though.
Maybe a little less grit.
Maybe less grit.
It's not as gooey as it was.
No, it's in there.
It's not as runny gooey as it was.
Shannon, what's happened with your ear?
Shannon's gooed all over her desk.
The social media desk has goo on it.
Yeah, I've got a big gooey mess.
But it's grainy.
It's a grainy gooey mess.
It's grainy and it's not that gooey.
I will say, didn't they get rid of the yellow, yokey bit? No, it's been there now. It's always been there. But I thought they got rid of it for a while. Yeah, I think it's not that gooey. I will say, didn't they get rid of the yellow yogi bit?
No, it's always been there.
But I thought they got rid of it for a while.
Yeah, I think it's back.
Yeah, it's back.
They have technically changed it.
I've gobbed the whole thing.
I've gobbed the whole thing.
Have you?
I just cracked mine in half.
Look, I haven't eaten mine.
You're not into it.
Why not?
I'm not into it.
But it's the goo in the middle.
It stresses me out.
Oh, you don't do the goo. I don't do the middle. It stresses me out. Oh, you don't do
the goo. I don't do the middle.
I don't goo at all. Do you do any
gooey chocolate?
Caramello is the only thing I'd do.
Yeah, Caramello rules. That's the only kind of goo
I'm really interested in. My goo is separating.
The goo is like
there's a light goo on top of the darker
thicker goo. Look, it's drippy
like there's two goos. You think we need to shake well before? I think maybe the goo has changed of the darker, thicker goo. Look, it's drippy. There's two goos.
You think we need to shake well before?
I think maybe the goo has changed a little bit for the better.
I don't think it's a bit of a goo.
It's not as gooey.
It's more like marshmallow-y.
It's paste.
I'm not sad about that.
I'm not sad about that.
You're not sad about that?
I don't want the goo.
I want it to open and it starts to slip out of the egg.
It's supposed to be reminiscent of an egg.
I will say in the efforts of fair journalism,
the middie has been buying the singles
and we got these out of a multi-pack.
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
I will say I did think about this when I bought them,
but I was buying them on my personal card
and do you know how much that bag cost me?
It was $10.
And you're never getting that money back, you know?
Logan's just messaged.
He got the singles as well.
All right.
Okay.
So we're going to get two different eggs.
We have to return to this again, are we?
We're going to have to do this every day, are we?
The best before date on this was this year.
Do you think that?
No, they should have a better shelf life.
It was because maybe these are last season's packs.
See, I told you.
I tried to figure out if they were this season or last season.
Okay, we'll come back.
The 1st of June, 2024.
Do you want us to be on the show where we get a single?
Investigative journalism here.
I don't think we need to hear you tonguing the ear.
We've got a patch number.
We've got a batch number here.
Okay, yeah.
We need to be fair, Fletch.
We need to be fair with our investigation.
Not as gritty as it once was.
No.
Okay, well, either way.
It certainly isn't the cream egg of my childhood.
We've had cream eggs for breakfast now.
What a great start to the day.
Only one night.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
I have been reading this on the spin-off.
This was, I didn't realise that the Ministry of Education
has actually produced guidelines when it comes to sex education now
so that there's more of a kind of a, well, guidelines for schools to follow.
Because I guess it was what before that a bit of a wild west,
like especially at like a religious school, they might be like, totally.
Just don't do it.
Yeah, yeah, yuck, yuck, yuck, wait for this.
Or at girls' schools it was different to boys' schools
and all that kind of stuff.
And so they've released, like, re-released,
this is in 2020 that the Ministry of Education
made some guidelines on what schools should follow.
They have some freedom in how they want to teach it and whatnot
for the things you should tick off.
And it starts from years one to three,
learning about relationship and sexuality within their first years,
identifying body parts, hygiene, and appropriate touching,
stuff like that.
Then you move into your years four to six, eight to 11 years old.
They should start to learn about puberty, eight to 11,
because it's-
August just-
She's like, they're talking about periods at school today. Yeah. I puberty, 8 to 11. August just came in the other day.
She's like, they're talking about periods at school today.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, okay.
But they're getting them younger, right?
So like 8 to 11 is...
Because of the soy milk.
Because of the soy milk.
That's why they're getting the boobies.
They should understand how it's different for different people,
social, emotional, and physical needs associated with sex.
Then you move on to your intermediate, 12 to 13.
Lessons about puberty continue in more detail.
Menstruation, body development, gender identities
should be taught around this age.
Then you're moving into your high school
where you start to learn about safe sex, consent.
Then in your later years, your like final years of high school,
which I was like, I think we tabbed out.
I don't think we kept on learning into seven form.
You did it early, like you.
Yeah, but we should have more conversations
about choice of contraception,
how gender, sex and sexuality can change through life
and da-da-da-da.
Anyway, so they've released these guidelines to be like,
this is what you should follow.
But this is not our experience of sex education.
As you say, it was so rogue.
So I want to chat about the wild things that you were taught at Sex Ed.
And we were talking about this before the show,
and that's when producer Jared from a private school piped up with his.
A private school that is like religious light?
Yeah.
That was me too.
A religious element to it.
Yeah, because we had a lady come in
at New Plymouth Boys High School
and talk about it.
What, she wasn't on staff?
No.
We always just had the teacher do it.
We had staff, PE teacher.
And then she would roll a condom over a,
like a, it was a native wooden penis.
Wait, wait, wait.
It might have been remu.
What was native?
The wood or it was based on a native penis?
Specifically, we have a mildy penis.
It was like a.
Hardwood?
Yeah, it was a hardwood, like a remu or a coldie.
Coldies are very light wood.
Yeah, very light in colour.
I think it may have just been her paper towel holder. It might have been putti. Yeah, could have been. Could have been a putti tree. That's a very light wood. Yeah, very light in colour. I think it may have just been her paper towel holder.
It might have been putti.
Yeah, could have been.
Could have been a putti tree.
That's a very dark timber.
Oh, I don't know.
Beautiful native timber.
It was a light, a medium to light wood.
Red tinge.
But I tell you what.
Okay, guys, we're getting too much into the wood.
No, it had been used so much it had a sheen to it.
Oh, she blew to that.
The luby condoms had sheened up this.
That's nice.
That's a natural
It must have been an oil
Yeah
Water base
We're sidestepping
We're getting too into the wood
Jared what was your
Encounter with sex ed
This was the first year
My school brought in
Like an out of school person
To teach us
And what year
Would this have been
I was in year nine
This time
First year of high school
For some reason They got those hot ass And what year would this have been? I was in year nine this time. Yeah, so first year of high school.
For some reason they got those hot ass ladies.
Is Kristen boys only?
No.
No, okay.
Multiple sex.
Yes.
Yeah.
All sexes.
Everyone's welcome.
Yeah, and she started writing things up on the board like,
sex is great, you can have it in the morning,
it's good for your health, it gets your brain working,
blah, blah, blah, all this stuff.
And she's like, what else is like this?
And she listed up all the stuff and she said breakfast.
So sex is just as good for you as breakfast.
Wait, so you're 13.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
You're 13 and she's saying you've got to have breakfast every day.
Yeah, which is pretty funny.
But wait until you're 16 to have breakfast.
Yeah.
Because I went to a private religious light school,
Presbyterian, like, no, what even is that?
Yeah.
And we were told, and this is all girls,
we were told you will get pregnant.
You will, and then they showed pictures of, you know,
like the most stretched out bellies with saggy boobs and a big dark lines down them and torn apart skin.
And then they handed around photos of close-up genitals
with STIs on them and said,
oh, this will happen to your fanny.
But then they want you to,
churches famously want women to get pregnant at some stage.
Were they not worried about the trauma
that they were putting on pregnancy at that stage?
Well, maybe that's the religious light part.
This was all about like, don't be a teen mum.
And that was it.
Nothing about consent or pleasure or anything like that.
Sex is not for pleasure.
Sex will give you terrible herpes and a child.
And that is it.
And you're like, wow, okay.
Whereas Jaron got the habit
because it's just as great as breakfast.
Do it, do it.
With a side of bookie.
Yes, please.
So we want to take some calls.
0800 DALZATM is the number.
You can text through 9696.
Also, the woman who taught me about sex education
was a lesbian.
Oh, right.
And I don't wonder if that skewed it in any way.
Oh, she was just trying to put you off.
We didn't learn a lot about the willies.
Dudes!
Yeah.
She put up a picture of a penis.
She's like, ooh.
Ooh, look at this thing.
Yuck, it'll get you pregnant.
Ooh, yuck, it'll give you herpes.
Ooh, yuck, I'll tell you what won't.
A lovely vagina.
So what is your memory of high school sex ed?
We are talking about what you learnt at sex ed
because a while ago, there were no guidelines.
There are now, but jeepers.
Hannah, what were the memories of sex ed?
I had a teacher at college.
I must have been about 14 or 15 at the time
and we were all sitting in class and she'd come striding in.
She had like a big white sheet
around her at the start and it was it was really awkward because she kind of whips it off in a in a
fashion i suppose and she had these black adidas stirrups on it was like 1993 i know them well
yeah great fashion right yeah and on the front of her pants in chalk
she had drawn all of the female
organs and all of the right faces.
And she was telling
us all about, you know, there was uterus,
there was ovaries, there was
all of the parts.
And how it all worked. And then she flipped
around and on the back she had all the male
parts. Oh, wow!
She's drawing ay on herself.
It was
an amazing joke but I tell you
as a 14 year old it was
fairly traumatising.
Phenomenal effort from the teacher
though. How do you draw on your back?
She must have had somebody else draw the penis on her back.
That's the funny image is her in the staff room being
like draw the willy on the back
and I'll do the fanning on the front.
You've got 10 minutes, Kevin, come on.
Some rogue education out there.
The wildest moment of your in-school sex education.
Because you found an article
about how there's actually guidelines now.
There's guidelines now from the Ministry of Education
on what should be taught and when.
Jenny,
what were your early memories
of sex ed at school?
Oh, hello.
Firstly,
long time listener,
first time caller.
Shout out.
Yes, welcome, welcome, welcome.
Welcome, Jenny, welcome.
Thank you.
I didn't have any rogue education.
I'm sure my lady was very good.
I don't actually remember much,
but back in Form 1, we got sent home a notice saying that the TAMPACS lady was coming to visit.
This is a co-ed school, and parents were welcome to come along and attend.
So we got to the day of the TAMPACS lady, and it was all very exciting, and we're all
nervously waiting at break time. And then my elder sister and her friends came over to let me know
that my mum was there waiting to come.
So, yeah.
You can imagine I was quite mortified.
Mum, wait.
Was Big Tampax Money infiltrating school sex ed?
Or was it just...
Who knows?
I guess that was The main brand Back then
So
I don't know
Was mum there to watch
To make sure
What you were being taught
Was suitable
Was there free tampons
Sounds like there was
Free tampons
She just wanted to
Stop at the tampon
I don't know
Maybe
I think she was
Just an involved mum
And was just
Interested to know
What was happening
Wow
Had your mum
Doubted any education at home?
Yes, she had.
Okay, that's good.
She's a great mum.
She's a great mum.
That's good.
But, yeah, fair to say I walked into that room.
I did not look at her.
I sat in the very front row.
I was probably incredibly attentive at the time.
Yes.
And then that was never spoken about again.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Wow, Giddy, thank you for sharing.
Megan, what was your early memory of sex ed?
Oh, morning.
Yeah, so high school was really fun.
Co-ed school.
Yeah.
And we had a female teacher, and she said to the whole class one day,
look, all you need to do, she got this mirror off her desk,
all you need to do is put this mirror on the ground, girls,
and actually just have a little squat over top of it
and actually have a look at all of the parts that you have,
see what they do, where they move, and just, yeah.
Now, look, I will say that this Morgan Penn sexologist,
she recommends this as well.
You've got to get to know your own bits,
because your bits, gentlemen, are on the outside.
You can see more of them, but ours is harder.
But I don't know if I've been to say that to teenagers.
It's a lot to take in.
When you were like, she put in a mirror,
I was like, she's not going to do it.
She's not going to do it.
And did you follow her advice, Megan, at the time?
Absolutely not at the time, no way.
Actually, no, I still haven't done it.
Oh, you must, you must.
Vulva gazing, you must.
Megan, thank you.
Some messages in.
I grew up in England
and went to a high school
in the 2000s
where they had a classic
banana condom situation.
Yeah, it's a classic.
But then all the girls
got sent home with these
like animatronic baby things
for three days
to experience motherhood.
Oh, you remember
when we had those?
I was 13 and traumatised.
Those crying babies. Yeah, they're horrible. Yeah.? I was 13 and traumatised. I was crying babies.
Yeah, they're horrible.
Yeah.
I'll put you off.
Our sex ed teacher proceeded to let us know
that her husband was allergic to lube.
He worked at our school too.
Don't tell them!
You don't tell them.
You don't tell them.
We've run out of time,
but do you think we've got enough
for a podcast only special?
I've barely scratched the surface.
Okay, great.
Let's do that.
Okay, so today's Little Bit of Pod
will be... Barely scratched the surface. Okay, great. Let's do that. Okay, so today's little bit of pod will be...
Barely scratched the surface.
More of a delve
into early sex ed.
And it will be great
because we can read out
texts like the ones
Vaughan is laughing at.
I'm going to read this one.
It's short.
It's sweet.
One of my friends
seriously straight-faced
asked the sex ed teacher
if a human had sex
with a car,
would you make a transformer?
Get a grip.
Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey.
Play ZM's.
Stop the clock.
Win the cash.
With ZM's Five on Time.
Five on Time.
It's a brand new way for you to win your share of up to $50,000 cash.
We're going to play every day at this time, 8 o'clock,
and again with Brian Clint in the afternoons at 4 o'clock.
Every day.
I'm really excited for this.
Until this cash goes.
Now, Emma joins us.
You are the first one to play.
Good morning, Emma.
Good morning.
A brave guinea pig.
We are starting this morning at $5,000 cash.
Now, to win the $5,000 cash,
we are going to play a timer.
It is going to go 3, 2, 1.
And when I say timer, it is a silent timer.
We're going to give you a 3, 2, 1 countdown.
It'll go 3, 2-1, a small beep.
And then in your head, you have got to say time loudly, clearly and fast when the five seconds is up.
Correct.
It's going to be exactly on five seconds.
Producer Jared is the man in charge because when you say time,
he will immediately grab that and see exactly how long it is.
Okay.
Sounds good.
He's got a computer program there that can select.
It'll select it from the beep that starts it to when you first,
the first little sound wave that comes out of your mouth,
and he's going to overlay it over the five,
and it has to be bang on to the hundredth of the hundredth of the hundredth.
Very precise.
I love it.
Now, we've tried this.
I was 4.2 seconds.
Me and Vaughn were 3.6 or something like that.
Shannon was 3.8.
I have had a few practices,
and I've just got to slow down a little bit.
Yeah.
Oh, okay, okay.
And don't let the music distract you.
Keep your own internal rhythm.
Shannon, when she tried this at the social media desk,
fell asleep, and it was like seven seconds.
Yeah.
Okay, Emma, are you ready?
I'm ready.
To win $5,000 cash.
Three, two, one.
Time.
Oh, interesting.
You said it just after I was mentally saying it. I forgot how the game worked.
I panicked the minute I heard the countdown.
Okay.
If you win $5,000 in this moment, where's that money going to go?
I'm going to be really boring and savour.
Hey, we're in La Cosa Libre Cry.
Babes, that's not boring.
La Cosa Libre Cry, exactly.
Fletch was just telling two people in the room whose names I won't mention
with crippling mortgages that the OCR might be going up this week,
and two of them who weren't Fletch cried.
Okay.
Producer Jared.
Good morning. Are we calling you Timekeeper
Jared? Let's call him Timekeeper Jared.
Okay, Timekeeper Jared.
How many seconds
did Emma get to?
4.77.
Oh!
That's really good! That's really good.
That's really good.
Point
2-7.
2-3.
7 plus 7 is 14.
Oh yeah.
He's done. He went to public school.
I went to public school and didn't do maths.
You were 0.23 of a second off of 5.
That's right. I'm pretty system for this. You were 0.23 of a second off of five. Oh, that's all right.
Okay, well, Emma.
I'm pretty happy with this.
Not bad. Really good start.
Hey, you're the closest we've had so far.
And the furtherest.
You know what?
Everybody listening thinks it's easy.
I tell you what, it is not easy.
I think it's...
Can I just give you guys some feedback?
Yes, please.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
Oh, wait, wait.
Okay, okay. She's lost. And next we, wait, wait. Oh, wait, wait. Okay, okay.
She's lost.
And next we're going to
tell you how to do your job.
Oh, you're welcome to.
Okay.
What is the feedback?
Yeah, yeah.
Just for when it starts,
just because, like,
we're hearing this
on the phone
as opposed to, like,
through a clear radio speaker,
maybe, like,
make the starting points
a bit clearer.
No, no, I think that's part of the challenge.
Oh, okay. Yeah, okay. Can I think
feedback received? No, it's good, yeah.
I did wonder that myself, but then again,
it's... Like something like a really loud ding.
Yeah, but I mean, you don't lose...
But, Emma, you don't lose Lotto and ask for another
couple of balls, do you?
Do you? Do you, Emma?
Keep going till I get out.
You keep spinning. Another one.
Another one.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Keep going.
So you're great.
Thank you.
If you're listening.
No, that's great.
Wait, what's her job?
What's her job?
What's your job, Emma?
I'm self-employed.
I'm a dog walker.
Okay, walk them faster and longer.
Walk them further because when they come home, they're not tired further. Up more hills.
Maybe try walking cats.
Yeah, and pick up that shit for crying out loud.
Emma, thank you for playing.
We're going to jackpot at $6,000 now.
And that is your chance to win, again, this afternoon at four,
your chance to win up to $50,000 cash.
I've lost my wallet.
Like the whole bit, and it's quite a big wallet.
It's gone.
I'd call it a mum purse.
Yeah.
It's a big purse.
No, she's got a purse.
No, the purse is my handbag.
No, the handbag's a handbag.
A purse is not a handbag.
No, a purse is a handbag.
Your wallet is a wallet.
No, not for a female.
A female is a purse. Oh, not for a female. A female is a purse.
Oh, thank you for telling me that.
I'm just mansplaining your purse, okay? Whatever it
the money holder that has
all my cards, little
bit of cash and a one dollar coin,
that is mine, is
gone. I love that you've lost that dollar.
It'll teach you. Yeah.
I don't know what, I just, we went
to head out for dinner yesterday
and I
picked up my bag and I thought, God, that's light.
Light.
It's weird how you just become
used to the weight of something. My thing is
my backpack for work. Yeah.
You'll pick it up, you'll be like, something's missing, and then you get
to work and it's like no charger or headphones
or something. Yeah, or a drink bottle or something like that. That's weird. It's weird that at the time you're like, this is lighter, you'll be like, something's missing. And then you get to work and it's like no charger or headphones or something. Yeah, a drink bottle or something like that.
That's weird.
It's weird that at the time you're like, this is lighter, you don't run a check.
No, but I ran a check.
I play fast and loose.
Yeah, totally.
I ran a check.
I looked all through my car, all through my house.
My wallet is gone.
I've paused my cards.
Okay, yeah.
The ones that I have easy access to.
The ones that have money. The ones that have money.
The ones that have money.
Congratulations on not cancelling the card.
No pause.
No pause.
I've done that before and then all your subscriptions and stuff.
And then you find that it's in the back of your car.
Yeah.
That's what I do to our cards when Sade's like,
I'm just going for a look.
Pause.
I pause all the cards.
Pause all the cards.
And she swipes it.
It doesn't work.
Yeah, but you know that if you use a card when it's paused, it cancels the card. It alerts it. I pause all the cards. Pause all the cards. And she swipes it, doesn't work. But you know that if you use a card
when it's paused,
it cancels the card.
It alerts it.
I am aware.
So then I was like,
I said to Aaron yesterday,
do you,
because he's away for a couple of days.
I was like,
do I,
I don't have any food,
there's no food in the house.
And when you pause your cards
on your banking apps,
it turns off all your Apple Pay and all that as well.
So I can't pay my watch or my phone.
And I was like, do you have any cash for me?
Well, like an allowance.
Yeah, so he's given me a small allowance
for the next two days.
Oh, lovely.
I've got $100.
Now, I think that's going to be great.
Yeah, that's a lot.
That's going to be a lot.
Oh, you can't Uber Eats because that's on your car.
No, that's fine.
I'll go to the supermarket and I'll do some shopping,
but I don't really have any gas in the car.
How did he give you the $100?
He had money.
He had cash.
But what's the makeup of the $100?
Two $50 notes.
Yeah, prepare to have those checked to see if they're counterfeit
when you go to the supermarket.
Really?
Yeah, you've got an ear about you.
I do, eh?
I do.
It's a pink hair counterfeit.
And then I thought, like, I I said to you I've lost my wallet
And you said you've got to get some air tags
So I'm on here looking at air tags
I'm adding to cart
I can't
You can't pay for them
And then in my head I saw the shipping for one of them
And I was like oh I'll just pop into like Noel Leaming
Or something and I'll just grab some so I've physically got them today
Because I want to put one on my keys,
one on my handbag,
one in the wallet and maybe
one for when I'm travelling around.
I don't have any money.
And then I was like,
do I just live
with cash now?
And do I get Aaron
to keep giving me an allowance?
I've been into some places lately and they won't do cash.
I know.
Which is weird.
Right.
Now, I think the coffee place next door is no cash.
Really?
One of the coffee places next door, yes.
They don't take cash.
Are you allowed to do that?
No, it's legal tender.
You have to accept it.
I think it's legal tender, yeah.
Right.
But some places just think, ever since the pandemic, they don't want it.
I've never felt so lost in my life.
Let alone like, oh my God,
if I don't find my wallet, new driver's license,
like get my cards all sorted out,
change all my subscriptions on my Netflix and whatnot.
It is pretty great having those, what are they called?
Air tags.
Oh yeah, they're so,
like the amount of times I've lost my keys,
I'm like, that's what I did the other day.
I was like,
I don't know where those keys are.
It was five in the morning.
Constantly.
And shout out.
I was running around the house
and I was like,
I'll give a little shout out
to whoever makes these.
Oh yeah,
what's that?
Because you've got a slim wallet.
Chipotle.
Chipotle.
Chipotle.
So this is,
this is like an air tag,
but it's the size of a,
like a credit card. A thicker credit card? A thicker credit card, but it's the size of a credit card.
A thicker credit card?
A thicker credit card.
And it's got a battery in it that lasts like five years or whatever.
And it's exactly like an AirTag.
And you just pop it in with your card.
Slim wallet.
And it's still slim.
Look at that.
Well, it's no use to me.
I can't buy anything.
I looked at some shoes and I was like, what's the point?
I can't buy anything.
Maybe this is a
a great way
for you to budget
has which been in your car lately
just thinking
he may have taken your wallet
if it was on the back seat
on the floor
and just that's his wallet now
probably
probably
he just went
what's this
that's mine now
I've got a wallet
no I haven't done that
have you stolen my wallet
I haven't done that
well best of luck to me today
I'm just going to be
wandering like a lost little lamb around being like...
With your allowance.
Do you have cash?
Do you take cash?
I won't be able to do the self-checkout.
They're always card only.
Now I've got to go to the...
You can't pull it to cash.
But then you've got to hope the note accepts the notes.
Doesn't spit them back out at you.
They need to make sunglasses with this in.
You know, you never find your sunglasses.
You put your sunglasses down somewhere and you can't find them.
You could sell and tape an ear tag on to the sunglasses.
You could get one of those cool straps.
Yes.
And put the ear tag in the straps.
Oh, no, we've already got find my.
But, you know, sometimes my phone dies or I lose my phone.
This is good for you guys.
I might put my ear tags on your phones as well.
Just sometimes I get lost.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
I've just been reading some more about our favourite generation, Gen Z,
who I admire.
Yes.
I like, I like, I like the bucking.
I like.
The bucking of the trends.
Yep.
For Gen Z.
This one's about ghosting, which is mostly a dating term.
Yes.
People just up and disappear.
Yep.
Make themselves unavailable for chat and romance and all that.
They just ghost on someone.
Go on.
But this is about ghosting on potential employers and employers.
Okay.
I always thought that would be quite fun.
Instead of quitting, you just disappear. You just disappear. that would be quite fun. Instead of quitting.
You just disappear.
Like you just disappear.
Like that would be the biggest up you to a boss that you hated. But you'd have to know that you don't need the referral for your next job.
And your last pay.
And your holiday pay.
And your pay.
Yeah, it would have to be a full.
Yeah.
Well planned thing.
But are you saying like job interviews? 93% of Gen Z
job applicants had
got to the point where they had applied for a job
and they were at the interview process
and just hadn't turned up. 93%.
What? 93% had a time
booked in for an interview.
14%
did so because
they said they just hadn't been impressed with the company's
attitude to that point. Oh, okay.
Which I love. And the other ones are just
a few more had read about the company
and were just like, actually I don't want to work for a company that
does that. Oh, wow. But you just let them
know, don't you? You just email and be like
hey, I'm no longer
interested in a job or something like that.
They said it was both empowering
Oh my god, he's entitled!
and allowed them to take charge of their careers.
But also it's at a time when there have been a lot of jobs.
Yeah, exactly.
They don't know what it's like.
Yeah, it was like a different time.
They wouldn't be like this.
They'd be desperate for a job.
90% said they just hadn't shown up for their first day at work,
even after they had got the job.
Are you kidding me?
25% had walked out on a job without giving
any notice. Wow.
Now if you age up to the next generation
millennials, they said
one third admitted ghosting potential bosses
but it had made them anxious
and they thought two thirds
thought it would have a bad impact on their future.
The guilt. The guilt.
The anxiety.
The last of the anxious generations.
The last of the guilt riddled generations perhaps.
So much guilt and anxiety.
Yeah.
I would never, I've never,
I haven't had that many job interviews to be fair.
And like auditions and stuff,
I guess would be the equivalent.
I've pulled out of auditions and stuff.
You never don't turn up.
Yes, and you always let them know.
You always ring your agent and they call them
because otherwise they blacklist you.
Oh, really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I guess they're wasting their time.
Yeah, wasting their time,
and other actors want to go in and whatnot.
Half of the people interviewed that had ghosted at any stage,
either when you had the job or the process of getting the job,
they said, well, they don't tell you if you don't get the job.
So why should I tell them if I don't want it anymore?
Okay, I actually understand that.
Yeah, because that annoys me when they don't say, hey, thanks for applying, but we've already got someone.
Totally.
And same when you're going for a-
Send a BCC email.
Yeah, same with flats as well.
You line up with 100 other people to view a flat
and they don't even say we've found someone.
And then you see a flat and you're like,
but I really want that one.
I'm just wanting to hear.
Yeah, for sure.
And apparently businesses,
it's like a well-known problem within the hiring parts of businesses
of these people.
These ghosting Gen Zers.
That's wild.
That must be infuriating.
Yeah.
I do love the audacity
I do
I admire the audacity
I admire it
Yeah
But that's because
I'm not hiring people
If I was hiring people
I'd be livid
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley

Fact of the day
Day
Day
Day
Day The day, day, day, day, day.
Now there was a lot of panic when I said just before that song that this week was Bad Mother Week on Fact of the Day.
Yes.
I was met with gasps.
Yes, you were.
That I was going to be giving hot takes
on what I think makes a bad mother.
Yeah.
You're not touching that.
I'm not touching that.
It's Nature's Bad Moms.
Oh, okay.
Maybe we'll call it Nature's Bad Mum Week.
Yeah.
Maybe I'll change it to Nature's Bad Parenting.
Okay.
Because then I just feel like
even though we are talking about a
different species, it's placing all the blame
at the feet of the mother.
They do do the heavy lifting.
I found one fact last night and then was just
like, okay, I'll Google the rest. Google, see if
there's enough of this. And there was just a plethora
of stories about
a plethora of
poor mothers
in nature. I think just in general,
we should use the word plethora more.
Plethora or plethora?
I say plethora.
It's great.
Or so you can do plethora.
I think, yeah.
Okay.
Com-si, com-sa.
That's not it.
Potato, potato.
Tomato, potato, potato.
I've got American pronunciation.
Okay, there's going to be American and British.
Okay. Well, we're British, so. Plethora. Pl've got American pronunciation. Okay, there's going to be American and British. Okay.
Well, we're British, so.
Plethora.
Plethora.
Yeah.
That's.
Plethora.
That's American.
Yeah, plethora.
British.
Plethora.
Plethora.
Both are plethora.
Plethora.
More the plethora.
So we've been hitting plethora.
I was saying plethora.
I said plethora.
Plethora.
So if anybody's keeping a count this week, Vaughan won.
Hayley zero, Fletch zero. It's not a competition. It is when I'm right. You. A plethora. So if anybody's keeping a count this week, Vaughan won. Hayley zero, Fletch zero.
It's not a competition.
It is when I'm right.
You said before I seen it.
You've only started it.
No, I done said that.
You done it.
I'd seen it.
I heard it.
So we're talking about bad, bad, bad, bad, bad parents this week for Fact of the Day.
And we're going to start with the quokka.
Oh, I've had a photo with a quokka.
You've had a quokka?
Where you went to the island off Western Australia.
Rockness Island. Yeah, it's
if you're ever in Perth, it's so worth
the day trip. It's incredible. You cycle around this
little island. They're so
cute. They're always noted to be the
world's happiest animal. Yeah. Right?
Because they always look like they're smiling.
They're ridiculous. They're marsupial.
Like if I saw those in Countdown, I'd be stoked.
Yeah, because they're rat-like.
How good would it be if it was giving out free samples of cheese?
Hey, you want some cheese?
I'd be like, you're damn right, my little man.
What have we got here?
And they come up to you and you get a selfie with them.
They're so cute.
Oh, my God, they're so cute.
I'm going to find out.
I've got a photo with one, Hayley.
I'll find it.
Yes, please.
I'd love to see it.
Yeah, that'd be great, actually.
It's a cute little animal. But, Hayley. I'll find it. Yes, please. I'd love to see it. Yeah, that'd be great, actually. It's a cute little animal.
But terrible mother.
Oh, my God.
So I had to look up what are the natural predators of the quokka.
Dingos and birds of prey introduce cats, dogs, and foxes.
Because they are part of the rat family?
No, marsupials.
Marsupials.
Okay.
So what else?
Wombat.
Yeah.
Okay.
Koalas. Kangaroos. They're so cute. All the marsupials. Marsupials, okay. So what else? Wombat. Yeah, okay. Koalas.
Kangaroos.
Oh, kangaroos.
They're so cute.
All the marsupials.
Australia is where you find most of your marsupials.
So they used to be numerous out there in Western Australia,
but introduced animals wiped them out.
And Rottnest is like an island, right?
You're not allowed to, no natural predators on.
I mean, there'd be birds of prey and stuff,
but I don't believe there's dingoes on Rottnest Island.
So the quokka, when it's got its little baby in its pouch
and it is being chased or threatened by a natural predator,
it will eject the baby from the pouch.
Well, it just ejects like a button.
Like an eject button.
And the baby goes,
hits the ground.
And as most marsupials,
while they're in the pouch,
are pretty useless by themselves,
it will flail around making weird hissing noises
and gather the attention of the predator.
Oh my God.
So that the mother quokka can get away
and the baby quokka gets eaten by the predator.
Oh my God, that's a bad mum.
It sacrifices its baby to ensure its own survival.
It ejects it and throws it in the firing line.
It checks it.
Wow.
And so it can run away and reproduce another day.
They're just like, I'll just get another one.
I'll just do another one.
Absolutely.
Why?
Now, when you think of it, that sounds horrific to a human.
If you were being chased by a shark or an alligator or a bear,
and you would like, you've got your baby Bjorn and your baby Bjorn
and you just undo the straps and keep running
and the baby goes
but it ensures the survival
because if the natural predator gets the mother
the baby's going to die without the mother anyway
so the baby dies either way
likely the baby quokka is going to die
anyway
oh but it's so sweet
these are chappy boys up until they get threatened and then they throw their babies out going to die anyway. Oh, but it's so sweet.
These are chappy boys.
Up until they get threatened and then they throw their babies out.
How far do they eject them? Is it like
a big ejection?
It's compressed air.
We could put
this compressed air under there.
I'm YouTubing quokka throwing
baby. Like a
t-shirt cannon at a festival. I'd liken it to a t-shirt cannon shootinging quokka-throwing baby. Like a T-shirt cannon at a festival.
I'd liken it to a T-shirt cannon shooting a quokka.
I'm trying to get video footage of the quokka.
Because this seems right up David Attenborough's, one of those.
Absolutely, in his wheelhouse.
In his wheelhouse.
Surely this has been on a nature docker.
Yeah.
Well, I can cite, this was part of a 2005 wildlife research paper
called Morality and Survivorship of the Quokka in the Northern Jarrah Forest of Western Australia.
So today's fact of the day in the first for Bad Parent Week in Nature Week here at Fact of the Day
is that the Quokka, the cute little smiling marsupial from Rottnest Island in Australia
will absolutely eject its baby to use as a decoy if it's being hunted.
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.
Play.
ZDM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. We want to talk citizens' arrests.
Should we head over to the snack desk?
Let's head to the snacks.
Snacks and cuddles.
As we've learned, social media should be banned for everybody.
So now reporting from the snacks and cuddles desk
is Shannon, who witnessed the citizens' arrest.
Yeah, it was wild.
I was heading home from work on Friday, Arvo.
Just dropping in there that she works till the afternoon.
I was like, we leave in the morning.
What's wrong with you?
Just get out of here.
Especially on a Friday, 9.15, out the door.
Yeah, next Friday I will.
Sweet, sweet.
But no, I was walking past and there's a 24-hour dairy.
I'm friends with this dairy owner.
Sometimes he walks me to work because it's dark
and he's a really nice man. Oh, that's so nice.
Yeah, they're really lovely out there.
And I noticed two people
in this dairy. One was
wearing a blue, like, look sharp
wig, like a party wig.
Wasn't their real hair for sure.
And they were being, like,
arrested by my friend,
this owner. Like, tackled,
arrested, and then all these people were crowding
and trying to slam the door
and someone tackled these two people.
It was all going down.
What the hell?
I didn't know what to do
because I thought I'm quite useless in these situations.
Hey, hey.
But there was a mentality of, like, let's get him.
Drop a shoulder.
Yeah, I was like, I could jump in,
but I was going to pull the wig off her.
Like, just embarrass her a little bit.
Don't mess with my friend, you know?
He's a good man.
But yeah, so there was a full, like,
probably three people citizens arrest on this couple.
So was she, like, stealing from his dairy?
Yeah, well, there was two of them.
So Party City Girl and then, like, her partner, I assume.
And I assume it was theft
because they were, like, barricading the door down
trying to keep him in.
And like there was tackling.
It was a whole palaver.
I was stuck at the red light as well.
And I was like, do I jaywalk to avoid this
or do I stay?
It's just crime happening left, right and centre.
Yeah, I didn't know what to do.
So I just kind of hung out
and then debated stealing her wig.
But eventually the light went green and I left
and I quickly messaged you guys,
I just saw a Citizen's Arise.
And so you didn't stick around to see if the police came?
No, so then when I left the car park,
I drove the long way to go past it to see
and the doors were all shut,
but there was no police there yet.
Okay.
Yeah, but they had managed to keep the guys in.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
I don't know if I want to be keeping them in.
Because I don't think you're allowed to do a citizen's...
Because there have been
some high-profile incidences
in the last year or so,
and apparently you've got to wait
until at least night time,
but then even then
you can't use, like, force.
Oh, there was a lot of force
being used.
What do you mean night time?
Because that's something
there's less police.
I would 100% hogtie.
Yes.
How great would it be to get someone and tie them up?
But then you've just kidnapped somebody.
Prove it.
Ah, sir, you've got your belt around them.
Yeah.
No, I don't.
That's their belt.
They fell over on the way out.
They were wearing their baggy pants,
and the belt went around their arms and legs behind their back.
So if the-
And string them up for a bit.
How fun would that be?
Like hog tie them and then put a rope around the hog tie
and hoist them off the ground.
Be like, look at this, man.
And then when you see the police lights coming,
you let them down.
So you can do a citizen's arrest between 9pm and 6am
or if you believe the offence would amount
to more than three years imprisonment.
Which is not shoplifting.
If the crime they're committing, not shoplifting,
but like assault or like someone's going to murder somebody, you can get in there.
But do you yell?
Because I've always sort of citizens arrest someone yelling.
Citizens arrest.
Citizens arrest.
I don't know why.
Like loudly declaring that you're about to partake in a citizens arrest.
If the crime is being committed at night, if the crime is punishable by three years imprisonment, if the person attempting to escape
from someone is trying to make an arrest.
Anyway, it's bizarre.
Okay, well, let's take some calls.
Has anybody ever done a citizen's arrest?
Oh my God, yes.
Have you stopped a criminal and waited for the police?
Surely not.
0800-DARLES-NM, let's take some calls.
You can text through
9696
oh my gosh
oh my gosh
oh my gosh
people are texting in
could you put them
in your chest freezer
if it was low
and then
like low on meat
so you put them
in the chest freezer
and then you sit
on the chest freezer
you can't freeze them
they'll die
obviously in their movies
they'll just be
cryogenically frozen
they'll defrost them
they defrost them
in the cork
yeah
right within a year
or so defrost them in the cork Yeah. Right, within a year or so.
Yeah, and then they charge them.
No more than 12 months
because they start getting freezer burns.
That's so good.
Shannon at the social media desk
saw at the weekend
a citizen's arrest.
Yes.
They barricaded the shoplifter
in the dairy
until police made it.
We want to know
if you've ever participated
and made a citizen's arrest.
Shay, you've done this.
Yeah, I have.
Okay, and so what were they doing?
So I was actually driving along the motorway following a drunk driver.
Oh.
And it was quite noticeable.
You could see him swerving in and out of his lanes
and everywhere other car that was next to me and behind him
didn't want to go past him.
Yeah.
I was in a big Toyota Huck, so I was like next to me and behind him didn't want to go past them yeah um i was in a big
toilet of huck so i was like i'll jump in front quickly and i slammed on my brakes in front of
him to make him kind of question what i was doing and then someone got behind him and we actually
kind of like sandwiched them in and pulled them to the side of the road
that is please called like told, you're not going anywhere.
Police have already been called.
Police had already been called before we had called as well.
He had urinated on himself.
Like, he was wasted.
Oh, my God.
Did he even know what was happening?
He had no clue.
He kept trying to get back in his car to go.
Oh, my.
I live just around the corner.
I live just around the corner. And I was like, I i'm sorry but you're not going anywhere oh my god that is
so great running someone off the road oh my god someone you know you see the place the police cars
with the bump bump yeah yeah i want to see that used that's so good shay he could have caused a
lot of damage to himself and other people he did he go, go. He did. He pissed himself. You try getting that out of your head. It could have been a lot worse, yes. Yeah, yeah.
Shay, thank you.
Some messages in.
We'll get to those next.
Wow.
The times when you've seen or made a citizen's arrest.
The times when you've seen or you've made a citizen's arrest.
Yeah, quite a few people doing it.
We had our house broken into.
They stole our laptop.
They stole our laptop.
My husband messaged and then tried to sell it.
And my husband messaged as a buyer, went to collect.
The husband told the man to get in his car.
He said, I know you've stolen this.
You stole it from me.
Get in the car.
The guy shit his pants and got in the car.
My husband drove him to the police station.
Jeepers!
Now, that's not citizen's arrest because he only asked him to and he did it.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, but he took the law in his hands.
I worked at a petrol station.
I came back into the shop after pumping an old girl's petrol. Not a euphemism. Oh, for God's true. Yeah, but he's took the law in his hands. I worked at a petrol station. I came back into the shop after pumping an old girl's petrol.
Not a euphemism.
Oh, for God's sake.
And when I walked in, a masked man popped up from behind the till.
I was so confused.
I thought he must have been the computer guy checking the hard drive.
Then I realised he was wearing a mask and he was trying to rob the store.
He quickly walked into my fist a couple of times.
And then with my help, he decided to lie on the floor until the cops arrived.
Oh, that's, yeah.
Wow, that's quite clumsy from him, isn't it?
Very clumsy fool.
He was just confused running into fists left, right and centre.
Yeah.
A guy broke into our house by climbing through the window
and our neighbour, who we'd never met,
went over and climbed through the window after him,
grabbed the guy, tied him up at our house,
took his ID off him until the police arrived
and the police said job well done to the neighbour.
Nice. Nice.
Jesus.
My brother and his mate stopped stabbing and sat on the guy until the police came and
took over. Yikes.
Late at
night my friend and I came across a guy high on meth.
He was trying to stab someone.
Ended up using our car to keep
us in between them and trying to keep
them separate until the cops arrived.
Oh, my God.
So they rammed in between the meth stabby stabby guy and the victim.
Yeah.
For a start, when I first read that text,
I thought they meant they used their car to hold them against the wall or something.
I was like, that'd be great.
You'd have to really be careful of the pressure there,
otherwise you'd pop some legs.
Just the right.
Just the right pressure.
Rinting.
Rinting.
Coming from a police wife,
police themselves don't recommend a citizen's arrest
due to the other person being able to lay assault charges
if you take it a bit too far.
Yeah, I was just reading how much force you're allowed to use.
You've got to be careful.
You've got to pat them, I think.
Unless they walk into your fist.
In that case, that's it.
The guy just kept running into it.
Yeah, honestly.
He was trying to run to get past me
and I was just standing there with a fist.
He's like a lost lamb.
Yeah.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Shivers, guys.
10 out of 10 podcast.
That one? Yeah. I think two of us. 10 out of 10 podcast, that one.
Yeah. I think two of us were 10 out of 10 and one of us wasn't.
Or who was that?
Which one?
We'll just leave that.
We'll just leave that there.
Well, if you enjoyed today's podcast, give us a rating and review.
Please do.
