Starting point is 00:00:18 Look, I'm happy to be here, but also one more week, guys. You know, and then we... And then holidays, yeah. And also, like, it's not like we haven't spent enough time with each other over the weekend, is it? It's weird being here. We just didn't take a break away from one another. No, I know it is. That's always a weird one. In fact, we spent
Starting point is 00:00:33 more time together this weekend. We did. What a fabulous weekend. Oh my God, so much fun. I'm reeling still. In New Plymouth. We'll talk about this during the show. Quite eventful. I will just say I don't think we would have had as much fun if we were in'll talk about this during the show. Yeah, but quite eventful. I don't think, and I will just say, I don't think we would have had as much fun
Starting point is 00:00:48 if we were in Morrinsville for the weekend all together. As we all boarded the plane yesterday leaving New Plymouth, we all said, hey, great hometown. Great home, yeah, you do. And then I did think about how we'd all do this. I mean, Wellington would be fun. That sort of speaks for itself. More of an expensive experience.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Yeah. Morrinsville? What are we doing? Well, the fun is where you make it, you know? Fun is what you do with your heart and your friends. Fun is where the friends are. Exactly. What a good saying.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Home is where the heart is. Fun is where the friends are. That works, doesn't it? That's so true. That does. On the way, the top six. Christopher Luxon has loved the Crusaders since he was a little boy. Because he filmed a video. I love this.
Starting point is 00:01:34 This is so funny. I would like to know. He filmed a video saying, I've loved the Crusaders since I was a boy. Now, the Crusaders didn't exist until he was about 26. But I gave him a bit of that. I was like, he just means Canterbury rugby. You know? But it was a misstep in an election year, so everybody had a pile on.
Starting point is 00:01:53 I love that. But I also want to know, is he from Christchurch? Why did he pick the Crusaders? No, he doesn't have big Christchurch energy. Where do you think he's from? Auckland? I always assumed Auckland. I did too. He's got real Christchurch energy. No, he doesn't have big Christchurch energy. Where do you think he's from? Auckland. I always assumed Auckland. I did too.
Starting point is 00:02:06 He's got real kings or grammar energy. But then every city's got that. Christchurch. He is from Christchurch. Okay, I take it back. I take it back. Born in Christchurch. Lived there until he was seven.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Then his family moved to Howick, Auckland. Oh, I gotcha. That's why. Okay. That's why you're saying you're from Rangiora. No, I'm not. Yeah, exactly. I don't say. That's why. Okay. That's why I caught that. That's why you're saying you're from Rangiora. No, I'm not. Yeah, exactly. I don't know why you're distancing yourself from that beautiful Canterbury town.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Because I don't remember living there. I grew up in Wellington. He said he loved the Crusaders since he was a little boy. Yeah. So the top six other things that Christopher Luxon has loved since he was a little boy. Play. ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. that Christopher Luxon has loved since he was a little boy. Well, a 60-year-old living in Essex. Lindy is her name.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Oh, Lindy. I love her name, Lindy. I love the name Lindy. Lindy. Her Saab estate, that's a car, it's a Saab. A Saab? You don't really see Saabs around much, do you? Not so much Her Saab, now they live on a farm
Starting point is 00:03:08 So this reminds me Vaughan of when you had your old Honda And you'd transport hay bales in it And it was a right mess Oh the Saab estate's a station wagon That's what you want You can chuck a hay bale or two in the boot of that thing So she has been crowned the winner of UK's filthiest car. And like,
Starting point is 00:03:27 I mean, look at it. Okay, what do we got back there? What do we got back there? Chippies. Juice bottle. Is that a bottle of Fanta?
Starting point is 00:03:35 It is a bottle of Fanta. A bottle of Fanta. That looks like a CD. I thought that Fanta was a different colour to our Fanta, right? Yeah. What are the straps?
Starting point is 00:03:42 I think because they banned some food colourings. Oh, yeah. You know the hundreds and thousands sprinkles? Not as bright. They're dull. Yours is more tropical looking and ours is orange. Orange.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Ours is, yeah. There's brooms, broom handles. Good. You need a broom. About 50 sets of strokes. You need a handle for the broom. I think a keyboard. Lots of clothes.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Lots of hay. Big water bottle. Really long screwdrivers. Good to get down into the bits. Yeah, and the front seat, the passenger well, that's an Amazon box that's unopened. Empty cartons, food wrappers. Mask.
Starting point is 00:04:18 That's a show sponsor McDonald's cup by the looks of it. Yeah. I mean, gross. So how do you win this competition? You enter it yourself. You submit yourself. You do, yeah. So apparently
Starting point is 00:04:34 I don't know if this is a thing in New Zealand, but in the UK, a messy interior, if your car's super messy like yours, Hayley, it can be classified as dangerous driving and you can get a fine. Well, yeah, if you've got stuff rolling around, it could get under your foot, couldn't it?
Starting point is 00:04:48 If that Fanta bottle you were just pointing out before, if that rolled behind the brake, you wouldn't be able to press the brake. Oh, yeah. I'm going to clean mine today. I know I've been saying that since I gave the Audi back, but I am going to do it today. It's got a piano in the back now.
Starting point is 00:05:02 How long is that going to stay there? I guess until someone breaks it and steals it. No, just today. It's got a piano in the back now. How long is that going to stay there? I guess until someone breaks it and steals it. No, just today. It's today. Today it has to happen. Right, okay. There's definitely some mould in there and I can't find the source. And do you remember like how many months ago that I put a little bit of chocolate in the middle
Starting point is 00:05:17 and it melted through the cup holder? Yeah. I mean, that's got to be six months. But where did the chocolate go? It's re-solidified, covering the bottom of the cup holder. I thought you said it melted through the cup holder. No, no, no. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I just leave it through the bottom. I'm looking for the ants now. Yeah, but they're not coming. They're not coming. They're just leaving it. Even the ants are too scared. Yeah. The ants don't go in there.
Starting point is 00:05:40 It sounds like you need to introduce an ant colony to your car. Oh, yeah, that could do it. That's a really good call. And then when that's done, introduce an ant colony to your car. Oh, yeah, that could do it. It's a really good call. And then when that's done, introduce an ant eater. Yeah. They'll clean it up. And then what gets the ant rid of the ant eater? Probably a lion.
Starting point is 00:05:54 A lion. A lion. Okay, a lion. Okay. And then how do you get rid of the lion? A poacher. An 1800s poacher. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:02 More than a few lions. A South African gay man. No, no, no. I don't support long as good as me. Bang. More than a few, Lord. A South African gay mum nurse. No, no, no. I don't have a poacher as good as me. Bang. This is a process, man. That sounds like
Starting point is 00:06:10 the way to go then. I sort of thought I'd take it to a groomer's. He'll want to take the whole lion, so he'll gut the lion there. Then you're going to have a hyena problem.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Oh, yeah. And the hawks. Hawks will come in too. The vultures. The buzzards. And then they'll poop everywhere and then I've got a new problem. And then to get rid of the hyenas,
Starting point is 00:06:27 you've got to get another lion. It sounds like you should just burn this car to the ground, to be honest. I've tried. I've tried. Next on the show. Tip.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Tip. Please. Please. Next on the show, wouldn't you like to know? Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, apparently Australians, and you can imagine it's the same over here because we're just a slightly better but slightly smaller version.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Almost half of Australians have an easy-to-guess password resulting in more than nearly $200 million being lost to online scams and hackers so far this year I got a new one just because they can get into their accounts yes I got a new one, you know a new text one oh who are they
Starting point is 00:07:16 pretending to be? the parcel is waiting for delivery because there was someone last week saying there was an in New Zealand one as well pretending that you you've got to check this link. Yeah, I mean, there's got to be some people. Yeah, well, I've been replying to them because they're just like 021 numbers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:32 I can't say what I said. You did say some swear words, didn't you? Yeah, like I said the worst swear words. How is it that they're all texting from like 021, 027 numbers? Yeah, I know. But they can't do anything about it. I know. I just ring them.
Starting point is 00:07:47 I just like push ring and let it ring, but no one ever answers. They're like burner phones, I imagine. Yeah, right. Anyway, so yeah, $200 million basically lost. 75% of Australians reuse their passwords. For the same. I used to be really bad at that.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Like you'd have the same one or two passwords to every single site that you sign up for. Yeah, that's me. But you'll never guess mine. Like, mine's a good password, but I use it for everything. No, but that's bad, because then if your password gets, like, data-legged... But I always put, like, a slight difference on them.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Like an exclamation mark. Exclamation mark. Or another zero, you know? Yeah, you're right. Okay. Yeah, 73% of Australians never change their banking passwords. Which I think is a way,
Starting point is 00:08:31 if you don't change your banking password, can't they be like, well, tell me if your money gets stolen. Yeah. No, but then they should, there should be an obligation for them to remind you. My bank's never reminded me. No, mine, when you log on every so often,
Starting point is 00:08:44 it's like you haven't changed your password in like X amount of time. 25 years. I logged on to my bank yesterday to see what damage I'd done over the weekend. Can I say? Do you know what I say? The cocktail's added up. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:08:58 I went last at the restaurant. We went last. Who? We had a freaking boss. Do you know he didn't pay for some fries? restaurant. We went last. Who the hell did you have a freaking box of? You didn't pay for some fries. I even picked up two or three of the things we got for the table because I was like,
Starting point is 00:09:11 it's just going to fall on the last person. It was us on Saturday night when we went out to the pub after my show. We all went out and then everyone was going up and paying and then it was like just me and Fletch left and there was still like hundreds left. I was like, somebody did not pay for their fries.
Starting point is 00:09:27 I paid for a table fries and a table chicken only because I pretty much ate a whole basket of myself because it was so yum. He gets hungry, doesn't he? He gets nibbly and then he fills up and he's like, I'm not going to have room for my mains and then guess what? Always room for the mains. He does it.
Starting point is 00:09:44 But yeah, I saw the lip when she was like, I'll just print off the receipt and you tell me what you want. And I was like, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. Oh God, you never go last. Never go last at a BWO or a restaurant. Yeah, we really did. We stuffed up there. We did.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Anyway, Captain Generous over here. But yeah, check your passwords. Oh, that's what I was going to say. I logged onto my bank yesterday and for the first time, I was like, I better make sure because we're going away that this credit card covers insurance. Because you know credit cards if you pay it. And it was like, yeah, yeah, it was all good. And I was like, you'll be impressed.
Starting point is 00:10:12 I even printed off my policy number and everything. Oh, my God. He's so organized. And I saved it as a PDF and put it in my flagged folder. Yeah. Have you told your bank you're going overseas? And then I, for the first time ever, told them I was going overseas. Because I never tell my bank I'm going overseas.
Starting point is 00:10:25 And last time they were like, no cards for you. Yeah, they cut your cards off. Because they're trying to help you. They think that some overseas company is ripping you off. I should have been like that. I should have. That's what I should have said. Yes, someone isn't Disneyland spending hundreds of my dollars.
Starting point is 00:10:39 I might say this. Help me, help me. The top six is next on the show. Yeah, the top six things Christopher Luxon has loved since he was a little boy. Like the Crusaders, which didn't actually become a thing until he was 26. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:10:56 From the panoramic ZM think tank, this is the top six. Oh, we are all so tired. Look, we are going to give you everything we've got this week, which is not a lot. Two big nights in a row in New Plymouth. My goodness. Sorry, I was just trying to find the actual video
Starting point is 00:11:20 that would have added a certain genie-sacquot to the top six that I have. Christopher Larson telling us he's loved the Canterbury Crusaders since he was a little boy. He's been taken down. I found a different one and he was saying it's the only time you'll be seeing him support a team in red. Ha ha!
Starting point is 00:11:34 Go the Mighty Crusaders. That's what he said, but not that quote, so it may have been taken down. Right, so this is a video over the weekend where he said he's loved the Crusaders ever since he was a boy. Yeah, a little boy. Now,
Starting point is 00:11:47 NPC Rugby started in 1996? Question mark? No, NPC Rugby's been around for eight years. No, no, no. Super Rugby. Super Rugby. But before that, of course,
Starting point is 00:11:54 NPC, it's been called a whole lot of other things. So, but he was 26 when the Crusaders formed. Correct. Okay. Yeah, so.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Is that a boy? It's definitely not a little boy. No. Would have had a career by then. But anyway, people have It's definitely not a little boy. No. Would have had a career by then. But anyway, people have been dining out on this. Absolutely. There have been some great tweets.
Starting point is 00:12:10 It's pretty funny. Pretty means Canterbury rugby, but at the same time, it's an election year, and anything you slightly missay is a pile on. It's perfect. Oh, and if you're getting sick of it already, there's months more of this to go. When is the election? October. Yeah. Let's just write off June. So July, is the election? October. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Let's just write off June. So July, August, September, October. It'll be mid to late October. So another four months of everything anybody says. And you can like say, oh, bloody leave Luxie alone. But then if next time you're piling on anybody else,

Starting point is 00:15:38 So my computer, for some reason, my laptop stopped connecting to the Wi-Fi. So I was like, ah, bugger it. I'll just hotspot off my phone. I've got plenty of gigabytes. I blurt through the Wi-Fi. So I was like, ah, bugger it. I'll just hotspot off my phone. I've got plenty of gigabytes. I blew it through the gigabytes. And then at the weekend, I pretty much said to everybody when we were in New Plymouth, I said, unless I'm at the hotel or with Sade, I'm uncontactable.
Starting point is 00:15:54 On data, you're going to have to call me. That is so frustrating. Which was, you know what it was, though? A little liberating. We went for a walk, and I actually just enjoyed the walk through the picturesque Bookie Quarter Park. Which I actually just enjoyed the walk through the picturesque Boogie Quarter Park. Yeah, we went to the zoo,
Starting point is 00:16:07 we went to the zoo, didn't we? You got to push the button? I got to push the fountain button. Vaughn made the fountain come on. Yeah. I know. That was really good. I've got you.
Starting point is 00:16:16 You don't need to worry about it. No, I can still do it. I'm just shutting down that thing that I was trying to log on. Okay. Do you think that's an M? That's a little N. No, that's an M.
Starting point is 00:16:28 That's a bugger, man. Okay, look, we'll get Vaud onto the Wi-Fi soon. Well, this song you hear in the background. Synonymous with Titanic. Yeah. The James Cameron film. By the way, he's been commenting on the submersible. He has.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Because he's a little bit of an expert in the matter. He is. He's been the deepest of any human, right? He went down in the Mariana Trench. And when he came out, 9-11 had happened. What? Have you seen this? What?
Starting point is 00:16:57 So he went under in the little submarine, right? He went under into the thing. He had sandwiches. I always remember he took sandwiches. He went down in the wreckage, came back up, 9-11 had happened. Wait, and you were talking about Titanic. Yeah. He's been deeper since.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Oh, right. He's been down the Mariana Trench. Oh, really? So he was down there and he came up and they're like... He came out of the boat and was like, man, that was awesome. He was like, so the biggest terror attack in history has occurred. And he was like, what? And just got told.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Anyway, side note. He's been on the news. Why is he wearing a Fox motocross jersey? I think he does. Does James Cameron? I think he's got some jumps on his farm in White Adapa. Does he do motocross? I don't know. All is forgiven if he does motocross,
Starting point is 00:17:38 but otherwise I don't think he should be wearing a motocross jersey. Yeah, I'm sure. Big Fox energy for a man in his 60s. Yeah. I can't imagine my mum rocking a Fox. No. I didn't think anybody wore Fox anymore.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Fox, I thought that was a 1990s, like, no fair. Maybe it's come back. Yeah, maybe. Who am I to judge? The guy's worth millions of dollars.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Shut up, Bourne, and tell us about this story. You'd think he'd be like a rod and gun sweater, though, wouldn't you? Absolutely. Big rod and gun energy. Big rod and gun energy,
Starting point is 00:18:02 that guy. Big rod and gun. Very smart. Yeah. You know? Always and gun. Very smart. Yeah. You know? Always looking smart. Smart casual. This song has had over 500,000 streams
Starting point is 00:18:13 since it was declared that the sub, the Ocean Gate Titan... Was missing. Is gone. Wow. Yeah. So because... Oh, wow. Because people like Titanic and they're like, oh my God, I love that song.
Starting point is 00:18:28 Guys. And then they listen. No, it's because people are making jokes. Yeah, no, and it is because people are attaching it to TikToks. Yeah. Which adds to its streams. I was like, I did, I had a big fat lie down last night and just went on Instagram for hours. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:43 So much like comedy content about people dying. Oh yeah, the humour is dark. And I know that everyone's like, yeah, 70,000 people died here and 100 people died here and now we're saying about five people. But it's a very interesting story, isn't it? It's a very interesting way to die.
Starting point is 00:18:59 It just seems so far removed from what the average person will ever experience. You can't even comprehend. Exactly. All the videos showing what an implosion and that kind of pressure looks like. Yeah. And then you would die in milliseconds. Wouldn't even know.
Starting point is 00:19:16 I know. So that's why I guess it's so far removed from anybody's everyday experience that it seems like making jokes is fine. Yeah. Also, that story about the US military have like this incredible technology. They heard the implosion like days ago, days before it was officially announced. But it's mystery oceans.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Yeah, but... Sorry. Sorry. When that key change happens... Who is Celine? Are my nipples stiff? They are. Oh, they are. I can feel it.
Starting point is 00:19:51 That's a real nipple stiff. It is, it is. It's a real nipple stiff part of the song. No, but why didn't they tell anyone? We're all like, oh... Because they didn't know. In the ocean, it's constantly like... Everyone's like, what was that?
Starting point is 00:20:06 no one knows. I'd say whales from a hundred years ago. Whales, because remember we did that fact of the day about the world's biggest mystery the ocean's biggest mystery sounds and it could be like icebergs cracking or like volcanic eruptions under the water. Mermaids. Could be mermaids. Could be mermaids.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Could be the kraken wanting sweet revenge on us for killing his children, which are just the giant squids, but small in comparison to him. Well, there's another play. There's another play to the Titanic theme song. I also just think that's a reminder that that is a real belter of a song. Oh, belter. I've never seen Titanic.
Starting point is 00:20:40 I have absolutely no interest in it. But that song is undeniably a belter. You've got the only person in the world that hasn't seen Titanic. No, we've got this weird group because I meet people and they're like, hey, I haven't seen Titanic either. And we give each other a secret little dojo respects dojo. Yeah. And then we move on with our lives.
Starting point is 00:20:56 Right. I've loved balls since I was a young girl. I loved going to the balls. I didn't do as many balls as bloody Chanelette pyjamas. Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. I've loved balls since I was a young girl. I loved going to the balls. I went to, I didn't do as many balls as bloody chandelier pyjamas. Who this morning told us? Nine balls. Nine school balls?
Starting point is 00:21:14 Yeah, I've been to nine. I was lucky enough at university we got to do a few, but through high school I just went to all the ones around me. One, two, three, four, five. I think I went to like five maybe. Right. Three of my own, because we had, two, three, four, five. I think I went to like five maybe. Right. Three of my own because we had fifth form,
Starting point is 00:21:26 sixth form, seventh form. And then I went to some fun school ones, boyfriends ones. Oh, right. Oh, okay. You've got a boyfriend. You've got a boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:21:39 So Auckland Grammar, not happy. Some students have gone to the media because they are not allowing single tickets to be purchased. You have to buy double. This was in the news a few months ago as well. Some other schools had this rule.
Starting point is 00:21:52 It was a few months ago was you had to take a partner. You couldn't take a friend. Or you can't just go by yourself. So Auckland Grammar's doing this now. $305 covers the entry for you and your partner, so you buy the tickets
Starting point is 00:22:08 and it's a double and they were like, well what if you don't want to take someone then? They say you have to Is it under the sea? What's the theme? No, it's James Bond, 007 It was ours, of course it was Oh is it? No, I was like I'm sorry, I just wore it It was so quiet
Starting point is 00:22:23 It was so quiet I didn't even hear it So was so quiet I didn't even hear it It was so quiet I didn't even hear it I didn't even hear it So what did you have James Bond It was the most eye rolling I think we had an under the sea Golden Golden 007
Starting point is 00:22:34 Golden Right Yeah Sort of avoiding Avoiding Yeah What cinema What company owns that
Starting point is 00:22:42 What's James Bond MGM MGM So you were avoiding The legal James Bond. MGM. MGM. So you're avoiding the legal arm of the MGM by calling it something like 00 Gold. Well, I had left high school in 2007, so that was why, 007. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Oh, gotcha. So the Auckland Grammar Headmaster, Tim O'Connor, said the Prefix Ball, as they call it, is a highlight of the year and led by our Form 7 students. 7th Form. Yes. It's a formal event with partners. I thought they were going with Year 13 of the year and led by our Form 7 students. 7th Form, yes. It's a formal event with partners. I thought they were going with Year 13 now. What is this? They're going back to 7th Form. Yeah, we did a mix, mixed bag.
Starting point is 00:23:11 It's a formal event with partners, not a dance, and is optional to attend. So basically, if you don't like it, don't come. Don't go, right. And then, so some of the guys, they also have the rule that you have to go with a girl unless you identify as gay. And they were like, so this is a whole new debate. How are we doing this?
Starting point is 00:23:26 And what if you're bi? Could you bring both? Yeah. Or could you bring two? Polly. Sure. It's blurry. It's blurry lines.
Starting point is 00:23:36 So you have to go with a girl. You cannot go with a guy unless you are gay. I mean, it's, you know, it's nice that they let their gay students bring me. You also just can't go with a chum. Yeah, I know. Now, it's, you know, it's nice that they let the gay students bring me, but, um, you also just can't go with a chum. Yeah, I know. Now that's the thing is like,
Starting point is 00:23:49 I would like to bring my chum. I went with my chum. I think it's, it's healthier to go with a chum rather than force it to take someone that you don't want to. Because now you're going to just have somebody at the ball that has less connection to the person going. I know. And if you're a, if you're a young man and you don't have any close female friends, then you're just there with some, like, dud chick that you're like,
Starting point is 00:24:12 well, I had to bring a girl. Yeah, yeah. Or you need to come out, which is a whole process, especially as a teenager, and you're not even gay, but you're just doing this so you can bring your chum to the ball. Yeah. You know, it's a lot. And then a lot of people are saying, look, asking out a girl
Starting point is 00:24:27 is a really daunting situation, especially if you don't even really want to hang out with them. So a lot of them are boycotting it and saying, we're not doing it. We're not going. Oh, wow. Have your own ball. Which arguably, I imagine, would be the more fun ball. Yeah. Anyway, have fun out there.
Starting point is 00:24:45 There's a milky situation. A brewing, like a cup of tea, which milk has no place in. Okay. Ah, that's just my own personal opinion. God, I had a lovely Lady Grey last night. It was so good. A Lady Grey? Lady Grey. What's a Lady Grey?
Starting point is 00:25:00 Slightly spicier than an Earl Grey. It's beautiful. Like a chai or something. No, I mean, it's got a little bit more going on. Right. Yeah. Right, a bit more leaf to it. Well, maybe he's making a cup of tea. In the producer's booth, a milky situation as a brewing.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Producer Jared, bring us up to play. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. So, obviously we have bottles of milk at work. Yes. A lot, too. When they get dropped off by the dude, there's a lot. There's a lot of people working the building and they distribute it to all the floors and all the fridges.
Starting point is 00:25:31 So we'd all agree that everyone theoretically in the building has a daily allotment of milk. Yes. I don't use mine. Yeah, I haven't used mine for three years. I use a lot because you know I have a milky oats. You have way too much milk in your oats. He is using the whole show's quota of milk.
Starting point is 00:25:48 It's free milk. Who cares? I'm not paying for it. And I have two coffees. Your cereal is too wet. Heavy on the milk. So I'm using milk at work. And my inheritance thanks you, sir.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Yes. Because your parents are producing milk for the country. Yeah, my question is, would it be okay if I were to, like, invest in one of these little coffee cup cups? That's a little Frank Greenie. A little Frank Greenie. Oh, yeah, sort of a thermal cup.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Okay, yeah. And then just fill it up when I leave work to use for my protein at the gym. It's an interesting one because I feel the same with the toilet paper. I don't take enough poops here so every now and then can I take a roll? No but you don't want the rolls.
Starting point is 00:26:31 Yeah you don't want the rolls. It's the same sort of conundrum you know. It's all eco-friendly here and it's definitely one ply tree. Yeah. So I thought I'd front foot this and address you guys the question first. It's a good question and thank you for bringing it to us before
Starting point is 00:26:48 acting. I mean I think if you're going to steal milk from work though, you don't tell people about it. It's not stealing, it's exercising my daily allowance. It's using it. But it's the conundrum of going to a restaurant or going to the Kuru Lounge
Starting point is 00:27:04 for Air New Zealand. You're not allowed to take food out of it. You can't stock up with the fruit and the bickies and whatnot and leave with it. You're not supposed to. You're not supposed to, no. Because you've got to have it at the place. Well, it'd be like going to a buffet and you didn't eat much.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Should you take some home because you didn't eat as much as other people? And all you could eat and you only had two plates. If you compare my average plate size versus Vaughn's average plate size. And you're both paying the same. I definitely deserve a backpack full of food. I should take a backpack. And also grab a bit more for me too.
Starting point is 00:27:37 I'll be hungry again soon. I get hungry on the way home. I'm pro Jared taking the milk. It's not a lot. I couldn't care less milk It's not a lot I couldn't care less It's not my milk It'd be less than a coffee cup of milk Yeah
Starting point is 00:27:49 I just don't want you to be fired for stealing milk I would fill it up well before you left because if that's a thermal cup it will keep the temperature Yeah true
Starting point is 00:27:58 And then be like I intended to drink it but then what do you want me to do tip it down the sink what an awful waste It's such a waste Yeah There you go.
Starting point is 00:28:05 And then if they are like, you're using too much milk, you can be like, have you seen how much milk Fletch puts in his eyes? But on that work, eating breakfast, I'm allowed. We're not a milky crew other than Fletch. I think you're entitled to take the milk. And you know what, Jared? I give you my milk quota. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 00:28:20 And I also approve for you to have my milk quota. The milk should be consumed on the premises. Girls, are you giving Jared your milk quota? Absolutely. Blue though, right? Dark blue. Dark blue. Dark blue.
Starting point is 00:28:32 He does the bulk. Yeah, right. Okay. So you'll just put this in your... Why don't you use milk in your protein shake? Who's putting milk in there? Be bulking, brah. People who weigh more than me?
Starting point is 00:28:43 Yeah. True. Not a conundrum, my face. Today's silly little poll, do you still use Facebook events? We were talking about this last week because lots of people have got Messenger but not Facebook. And Facebook, you don't post on people's birthday, on their walls anymore for their birthdays. And is the Facebook app redundant? But then we were like, it's still handy for events. Still handy for events,
Starting point is 00:29:28 yeah. Do you still use Facebook events? 62% of respawn days said yes. 38% said no. Huh. So how are they getting invited to parties? Just messages? I don't do it for parties anymore.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Actually, I just got invited to a party on Facebook events, attending. Do you guys want to come? What kind of party is it? When is it? Ray O'Leary's leaving. I saw Ray O'Leary's leaving. Where's he leaving to?
Starting point is 00:29:54 Melbourne. He's moving there. He's moving to Melbourne. I'm very worried about him. He doesn't seem capable of looking after himself. Does he have someone over there? Is he a very smart man? Is he moving in with Mal Bracewell?
Starting point is 00:30:05 He's a very smart man. We can only hope. But Ray's one of those incredibly smart people. Yeah. But he's just got this huge blind side to his life
Starting point is 00:30:13 where he wouldn't know how to cook. I want to see what other events I've got. Or make his bed. I don't know if Ray makes his bed.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Right. Incredibly smart. He's very funny. That's a win for Melbourne. Oh, I'm doing an event on Friday. I'm doing a stand-up gig, and that's got an event. There's another birthday. Yeah, I think.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Yeah, I don't know. A lot of people still using the events. Yeah. Well, people replied, it's bloody handy, and this is from a person who hates using Facebook. Yeah. Adele says, easy for kids' parties for family members so you don't have to repeat the same information a million times.
Starting point is 00:30:45 If they've got a question, you send them the link. Fair call. Good. That's great. They have an FAQ. Yeah. Emily says, stopped years ago, but since having a baby, they're back big time. That'll be all the babies events and the first birthdays
Starting point is 00:30:58 and the wriggle and rhyme and swimming lessons. Sounds like a reason to delete Facebook. Yeah, no thanks. Emma said, I don't use Facebook at all. Holier-than-thou attitude to social media. I'd love to not use it, but yeah, they get you, don't they? Yeah, they get you. Not quite ready to hit the delete button yet. Well, we've got a building Facebook page,
Starting point is 00:31:19 and that's good for like what's going on in info and stuff. In the building, yes. So if that could be not on Facebook, I think I'd delete Facebook. Yeah. There's only a couple of things I'm holding on to. Right. Yeah, no, events are still very handy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:33 And like this one says, Alexandra says, I only use it very rarely, like when we had a Thanksgiving potluck for 30 people. Extremely handy to coordinate what people are bringing. Yeah, right. And you can do little polls and stuff in them too as well. Yeah, that's true. Feel for it. Carol says, oh my lord, is this not a thing anymore? Am I one of those old people that
Starting point is 00:31:52 still use Facebook? No, Carol, you keep on keeping on. Because you could do like a messenger group but then that gets annoying when there's too many people on a group. Oh, we experienced the very active messenger group at the weekend. Yeah, and that was only, what, 13 people?
Starting point is 00:32:06 Yeah. Yeah, Aaron was quite overwhelmed. I thought he might have been. Yeah. When I added him to the group, I was like,
Starting point is 00:32:12 maybe this was a mistake because he doesn't really use it. Yeah. They fire through. Travelling and living in different places, it's a great way
Starting point is 00:32:21 to see what's happening locally and check out new things, says Danny. Okay. Mel, I gave up on Facebook at the end of last year. Now they either have to let me know personally or if it's on Insta. I don't think you can do events on Instagram, can you?
Starting point is 00:32:36 Maybe they just like message. Message them or put them in a story that it's happening and then you can. They're still friends with all these people. They'll still let you know something's happening. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Unless you're kind of like
Starting point is 00:32:48 not really their friend and they were just doing it politically. And now if you're not coming that's absolutely great for them too just to keep numbers down a little bit. Oh, see, now I can't delete Facebook.
Starting point is 00:32:57 No, neither. Make it a little bit more personal. Make it just a bit more of a smaller, more loving group. 722. Play ZM's Fletch weekend in New Plymouth. The weekend went for Fletcher's birthday
Starting point is 00:33:13 weekend and the Hayley Sproul comedy extravaganza. Wow. Yeah. Apologies to any venue that had to host 13 to 17 people at once. We were a lot. Yeah, but gosh, they loved us. Oh, yeah, we were buying stuff, weren't we?
Starting point is 00:33:31 God, yeah. I think I need to whip around the gays and ask for some sort of reimbursement. As my wife generally drinks wine when we go out, but because everybody was drinking cocktails, she had to keep up with the Joneses, and it ended up costing me significantly more. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:45 What? So you're saying that the rest of the group should have to pay you a subsidy, subsidise my wife's cocktail problem because she usually
Starting point is 00:33:53 just drinks wine, let's say, $11 a glass. I was trying to push the prosies on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I didn't cocktail because cocktails
Starting point is 00:34:00 are sugary for me. Those are Proseccos, by the way, yeah. Oh, yes. Prosies. Prosies on my wife. She wants one onos, by the way. Oh, yes. Prosey. Prosey's on my wife. Though, if she wants one, I'm happy to help her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Happy to help her. But a fantastic weekend. Oh, it was so much fun. Some people, it was their first time to my hometown. And, you know, I always rave about it. Vaughan gives it a bit of stick. And it happens literally every time I go to New Plymouth. Someone comes up to me and says, we're related.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Remember, it's happened like when we've gone there for like bangers, bingos and quiz nights. Someone comes up and is like, I'm your second cousin. And I'm like, oh, yeah. And then they tell me how they are. And so I met my second cousin once removed at the weekend. Yeah, right. Good morning, Shelly and family. Shelly.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Shelly. Yep. Her great granddad is Uncle Graham. You'll remember I was talking about Uncle Graham. He turned 100. Yeah. You know what I really love is, remember you guys gave me a bit of a hard time
Starting point is 00:34:50 because when I split with my doctor because she was moving to New Plymouth and I cried and we had a cuddle and stuff and he said it was too much. We met the doctor. She gave me a cuddle. She was pretty great. She's great.
Starting point is 00:34:59 They've been in Afghanistan. They've been in Sudan. They had so many amazing stories. Everyone in the group kept coming up to me being like, I get it, man. I get it now. I get the doctor. We get why you were sad when your doctor moved in.
Starting point is 00:35:10 She was a great doctor. I totally get it. She was a great doctor. Good fun. I got to push the fountain button at the park. At Pukekoota Park. Yep. I tell you, New Plymouth really won me over at the weekend.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Yeah, we went to the zoo. That park doesn't nearly get talked about enough. It's a beautiful park. It gets talked about a lot. I would put it... Very famous. Maybe not quite on par with the Hamilton Botanical Gardens. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:35:31 It's pretty good. Yeah. There's a fernary. Well, it doesn't have the Instagram bait. Nah. That the Hamilton Gardens has. Yeah. Oh, it's got the bridge.
Starting point is 00:35:40 It had that big bridge. Oh, yeah, like natural Instagram bait. And it's got the free petting zoo thing up the top. Yeah. With capybaras. No one told me there were capybaras in New Plymouth. So cute. That should be one of their top ten draw cards.
Starting point is 00:35:50 It's the words I just wrote in. My only complaint about New Plymouth was the cafe we went to that didn't let me have more than two sides. Yeah. Now. It was a confusing situation. I was a bit tired as well and a little bit hungover. And I wasn't having a bar of it.
Starting point is 00:36:05 And I apologise for being curt. But they wouldn't let me have more than two sides. So then I just made everyone else put a side on what they were ordering. It was very unusual. And I played the system. The young fellow. Yeah. He didn't like us.
Starting point is 00:36:19 Who was just doing what he was told, I think. Yes. He wasn't there to reinvent the menu. He said, there's a maximum of two sides. And I said, literally,
Starting point is 00:36:29 I'll order next and I'll just get a side. And he looked at me and he's like, that's fine. And I was like, I'm just going to give the side straight to her
Starting point is 00:36:36 and he's like, that's fine. Yeah. And then she'll pay for it when she goes up. You weren't allowed to order three sides. No, remember,
Starting point is 00:36:43 and I wasn't allowed to order just eggs. I had to pay for eggs on toast. But you didn't want the order three sides. No, and I wasn't allowed to order just eggs. I had to pay for eggs on toast. But you didn't want the toast. And I said, but hold the toast. And he was like, I can't. I was like, well, just dude, eat it or throw it out or do whatever with it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Right. I was like, well, if the toast has to come, don't put the eggs on it and I'll eat the toast. And then I'll give her the mushrooms. Right. So it became a lot more Confusing than it needed to be It does sound like it It does sound like it And then the next day
Starting point is 00:37:10 Where did I go for breakfast I've got to give this Breakfast sandwich A shout out I can't remember That eggy bacon-y situation Over the road in the courtyard No I can't remember
Starting point is 00:37:18 God damn That was Yeah okay Well we're all never Going to have it so Okay Well there was only One blight There was only one blight.
Starting point is 00:37:25 There was only one blight on the weekend, and I didn't experience this. I didn't experience it. Did you see the pictures of it? No, I didn't want to. I accidentally opened it. Someone did a big fat shit against the wind wand. Now, as a recent Len Lye convert, my friend Alice and I, while you uncultured swines were doing whatever on Saturday morning,
Starting point is 00:37:44 I think my wife slept for six hours Alice and I went to the Len Lye Museum and saw the kinetic sculptures amazing it was famous yeah
Starting point is 00:37:52 and the building's that wavy mirror and you'd take a amazing so I'm you know after all the the ragging yeah
Starting point is 00:37:58 that I've chucked Len Lye's way before because I had an ex-girlfriend who was related to him so of course there was a little bit of ill feeling there
Starting point is 00:38:04 Lendraly there Lendrali A Lendrali, yes She was always shaking sticks and bits of metal and I was like give up, okay it's a family thing but he nailed it and so I, the one with the little motors and they go I'm not doing a great job explaining it but the whole thing
Starting point is 00:38:21 beautiful and I came out and I said fantastic, I'm cultured and then the next day, our friend Morgan comes back from a walk along the beach side and she's like, there's been a horrendous act against the wind wand, the huge wind wand. This is a famous sculpture. Someone's taken a massive poo against it. And it's not a dog.
Starting point is 00:38:39 It's not a dog poo. No, that was human. Yeah. It was a Tabetian mastiff if it was a dog. Only one dog capable of it. Who is going to do a human poo against a... It's so public.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Someone who had not been having enough fibre. Yeah, right. Was it sclipsy-sclipsy? I didn't look. No, no, no. It was... Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:38:59 It was a log. It was a log. There's plenty of fibre if it's log-like. No, no, no, because it wasn't like... It looked like it really hurt. Oh, yeah, dehydrated.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Dehydrated, compacted, like four meals pushed into one. Literally a public toilet, like 50 metres away from it. Well, you've got to go. And then we were all, someone's got to clean that up. Yeah. Disappointing. Yeah. A disappointing end to it otherwise.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Claire Seagull eats it. Top Trip Advisor. Claire Se Disappointing. Yeah. A disappointing end to it otherwise. Top Trip Advisor. Claire Seagull eats it. It's the best outcome for everyone. All I'm saying is if you're taking your dog for a walk along the waterway in New Plymouth this morning, especially if it's a golden retriever, for God's sake, keep it on its leash. Yeah. Because that might still be there. The only
Starting point is 00:39:41 blight on an otherwise perfect weekend. It was perfect. Play. ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley. Now, this is from Australia. People have voted
Starting point is 00:39:54 for the sexiest professions for men and women. They have been named. Okay, our radio announcer's on there because, you know, hon, hon. Well,
Starting point is 00:40:03 close. But they've all got faces for radio. She's got a real face for radio. Now, okay, I'll give you the least sexiest, shall I? Okay, yeah. For both genders. Designer, five. Four, marketing execs.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is the least sexy. Designer. Yeah, I know. Like a graphic designer or a clothing designer. Just designer. Bit of a smack in the face for a designer who tries to make things look as attractive as possible,
Starting point is 00:40:30 apart from themselves, apparently. Because they're making up for their own absolute mutated face. Number three, politician. Oh, yeah. Especially in Australia. Good Lord, some of them. I know. Really?
Starting point is 00:40:41 What's happened there? Yeah. Number two, web developer. And number one, judge. Those are the least sexy. Judge developer. Hardly fair to include spiders. Throw something at him.
Starting point is 00:40:54 All I have is this very heavy metal drink bottle, and it feels too dramatic to throw this. Anyway, we'll move to the sexiest. I'll go men first. Okay. Number five, mechanics. Dirty hands, you know. Shirt off under the car.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Yes, the girls are nodding. We like a little mechanic. You need a new carburetor. What about the calendars? I thought that would have been a big no-no. That's fine. They're getting hot and heavy at the workplace all day. Ready to come home and absolutely let you have it.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Change your oil. Yeah, change your oil. Okay. All my mechanics who have ever worked on my car have been like old mates. Yeah. Real old mates.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Number four, yes, builders. Hot! Anyone in the trades. Unless they let you down. It's really unsexy to be let down, guys. I don't want to get into it.
Starting point is 00:41:42 It's really unsexy to be let down by the trades. Unless they let you down. Yeah, yeah. Or the sexiness disappears. Number three, oh, far out, yes, police. Police. Cops.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Cops arms. In New Zealand, we make our police T-shirts so tight in the arms. I remember you were in that cafe and you saw that cop. Oh, my God, that guy. Yeah. What was he? Tight cop arms makes me hot. Number two, doctors.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Okay. Yeah, yeah. We've got a doctor friend, don't we? Yeah. My friend, we had an accident. This is years ago. And we were in the A&E and she was lying on the table and then the hot doctor walked in and she needed to pee
Starting point is 00:42:20 and she had to pee into a towel. And he got the towel, you know. What? Why did she have to pee into a towel? Because she'd hurt her spine. Oh, so she couldn't move. So she couldn't move. She had to pee into a towel.
Starting point is 00:42:30 What about this? I'm sure there's buckets. No, but it was like now, now, now. Like I've got to go now. I've got to go now. And so this hot doctor came in and she was like, no, not him, not him. And then he had to put a towel in. He held the towel and she weaned into a towel.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Yeah, it was such a bad night. A&E doctors. It's fine. She's married with kids now. Right. Not to him, though. I can't really hear the story of this night. Me and we went in Wellington.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Through this park, there's a double flying fox. Yeah. In Brooklyn. And we both went on it and we held hands, but I'm heavier than her. So you pulled her down. So I pulled. I went further. And then as I hit the end, she hadn't quite finished and we fell off and I pulled her down. So I pulled, I went further, and then as I hit the boof end,
Starting point is 00:43:05 she hadn't quite finished, and we fell off, and I pulled her down to the ground. She got winded and hurt her neck and spine. Jeez. And had to pee into a towel. And had to pee into a towel. In front of the hot doctor. Is it fair to say, this may be generalising,
Starting point is 00:43:19 A&E doctors and nurses are a little bit hotter than the ones just at your GP? Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Because they're always in a hurry. We have a friend who's a GP. Yeah, I know. You're already in his bad books. Because this weekend I said only a GP.
Starting point is 00:43:32 A holistic doctor. And I called him just a GP. Yeah. And he did tell me that water has memory. He did not. He did. He said to me, I could prescribe you antibiotics, but what about an oil? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:44 And I said, I don't know. Rosemary will fix that. Again, that's not true. That's not true. Yeah, okay. Number one of the men's sexist professions. And then he told me COVID was made up, but he did not. No, he didn't.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Just every time he said COVID, he did quotes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He didn't. Oh, my God. You're in so much trouble. Do you know how much those last comments, I heard about those. I know. He's upset.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Number one, firefighter. That's hard. It's a calendar thing. And it's the, like, risk. Their job is nothing but risk. Yeah. I mean, it's hanging out and playing PlayStation at the, a lot of hanging out and playing PlayStation.
Starting point is 00:44:19 No, they save lives. Do they have a PlayStation? Some have PlayStations. They must do, yeah. If you're spending that much time, you might as well have PlayStation. Yeah. But must do, yeah. I've just been in that much time. You might as well have a PlayStation. Yeah. But they literally, their job is just putting themselves at risk the whole time.
Starting point is 00:44:30 That's sexy. That's selflessness. And they're, you know, muscly because they have to hold their giant homes, don't they? You've got to think, all these people use their hands. Build a mechanic, police officer, you know, like risky doctor, risky firefighter.

Starting point is 00:53:35 and there was an armed defender holed up in a house but the house was on fire and then you've got cops, armed defenders and fire and fire. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:53:46 And I'm in the house. And it was a butcher's house and he comes home halfway through. But there's an arborist on a tree outside. Yes. And on that tree that he is trimming, there is also a beast, a cattle beast being hung to be filleted by the butcher.
Starting point is 00:53:59 Yeah. When we arrived in New Plymouth on Friday, we, what did we do first? We had a few, did we chicken? We went straight to a bar. We went straight to a bar. I was trying to go if there was anything else we did before then, but there wasn't, was there?
Starting point is 00:54:20 No. Okay, so we got there and we all checked in and then we went straight to a bar. And then we were walking down the street past the beautiful Pride Crossing. Well, actually, no, to be honest, the first thing we did was we went to the Wind Wand. Pre-poo. Pre-poo. If you missed earlier.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Someone did a huge poo against the Wind Wand at the weekend and that was yuck, but this was pre-poo. Or at least we did not see the poo. No. And we went to the Curvy Ladies. Yeah, we went up. There's a little seat. The Coastal Walkway. Yep, Coastal Walkway.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Did a little loop. Did a little loop. Before the bar. And then we went, there's a Pride crossing there, and we crossed that, and then we were crossing across to the rooftop bar, which in New Plymouth is one storey high. Well, technically it is on the roof.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It's on the roof. That building does not go Dear hire By the way Friday afternoon It was 19 degrees It was like We were all just like What is going on
Starting point is 00:55:10 Are we in Fiji It was so good And so bad At the same time Because that can't be right Anyways As we were like Walking there
Starting point is 00:55:18 There was this crossing And a small set of lights And it was like The light went green And this woman in the car Beeped immediately And we were was like the light went green and this woman in the car beeped immediately. And we were all like... We had a green cross.
Starting point is 00:55:30 We definitely had a green man to cross. So we started crossing and then it started doing that thing where it was flashing red saying, soon it's going to be time for you to not cross anymore. But because there was like 13 of us... We were a big pack. A big pack of people.
Starting point is 00:55:43 It took everybody a while to cross the road. But don't distract. We were taking the time that we were allocated. Yeah. And then a big pack. A big pack of people. It took everybody a while to cross the road. We were taking the time that we were allocated. And then a woman got pretty hot on the horn. I didn't even know where it came from. I was like, are you serious? We only just started crossing. So we all went, you've got to imagine a group of
Starting point is 00:55:58 I'd say 13 extroverts all going, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? Calm down. Her window was open and I was right next to the car when she beeped. And it was loud. And I just said to her, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? Calm down. Her window was open, and I was right next to the car when she beeped, and it was loud. And I just said to her, I was like, whoa, that's really loud. That's really loud.
Starting point is 00:56:12 And then everyone was sort of like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And then this woman who looked incredible, she looked like a character out of Coronation Street. She had like almost like a purple rinse kind of perm, set hair thing. And then she flipped us the bird. She gave us the most skinny erect bird you've ever seen. And we just lost it.
Starting point is 00:56:36 We just laughed so hard. Again, 13 rambunctious extroverts absolutely laughing in your face. So she flipped another bird. She just birded us. It was bold of her because she was in a car small enough that 13 people could easily have picked it off its front wheels.
Starting point is 00:56:50 So she could not have driven anywhere. We could have picked that car up. Easy peasy. Easy peasy. It was so unexpected. She looked like she was having a really bad day. She had a bad day. She was real grumpy.
Starting point is 00:57:00 She was really grumpy. She pulled her fingers. She was in her 70s at least. And I was like, oh, it's okay. And like Wade said, have a nice day. And that always makes people who are having a bad day have a worse day. She was very grumpy. She pulled her fingers. She was in her 70s at least. And I was like, oh, it's okay. And like Wade said, have a nice day. And that always makes people who are having a bad day have a worse day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I come across quite disingenuous with any kind words I have to say. At the best of times, yeah, yeah. So I think that sounded super sarcastic. So she just kept ripping the fingers at us and swearing as she drove away. We were just so shocked. It was so old school. Let's just assume she had a really bad day.
Starting point is 00:57:24 Yeah. Poor thing. Oh, good for her. I mean, assume she had a really bad day. Yeah. Poor thing. Oh, good for her. I mean, I hope her day got better. Me too. I don't know. The only, like, negative or bad experience, really, in New Plymouth was the whole week. It was so lovely.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Yeah. I know. What about the waiter? Then we got to this rooftop bar, and shout out to the waiter who looks like someone from Van Halen. He looked like Eddie of Stranger Things. Yeah. The hair on the scar.
Starting point is 00:57:48 It's beautiful, pearly hair. We had some beautiful waitstaff, actually, at the weekend. All round beautiful people. I told you, you always poo-poo and you plummet, but I said we're all beautiful people and it's a beautiful place. And you had an amazing weekend and there were beautiful people. Everybody was fawning over that waiter at the other place we went and I said to him, and everyone was
Starting point is 00:58:06 betting where he was from, Argentina, Italy, somewhere in the Mediterranean. I said, excuse me, we simply must know whereabouts you're from. And he said, Oakura. And he said it like that too. Oakura. I don't know if you can ask people that.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Did he have an accent? I thought he did have an accent? I thought he did have an accent when he was asking what's next. It sounded sexier. I wanted I need to know. Alakura. Bless the people of New Plymouth, including the woman who flipped a bird. Even the woman that flipped the bird and tooted and
Starting point is 00:58:37 swore. She didn't spoil our weekend, in fact she made it. Next on the show, you've got a new family of chickens. I've got 10 new chickens, baby. It all happened real quick. It was unexpectedly quick how this all went down. Was this a marketplace or a trade me spur of the moment purchase? No.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Old school. I'll tell you how. Yeah. And also we need some names. Yeah. Now all your last ones were a member of the Kardashians. Correct. They were the Kardashian hands.
Starting point is 00:59:03 We've got two left. Mind you, Kim's not looking too good. Kim's got a big bald spot. That developed over the weekend. No, Kim has to be the last. No, Rob is going to be the last. But without Kim, Rob's nothing. Excuse me.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Without Kim, Rob is nothing. So we kind of need a suggestion, and there's 10 of them, which makes it harder. Yeah. We've got to have a theme that runs through 10. All right. Fletch came up with a good idea. I'll tell you what it is next.
Starting point is 00:59:29 It's a big brainstorm next. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn, and Hayley. So a couple of weekends ago, we were driving to Netball. Take my daughter to Netball. And we were going a slightly longer way because Daddy wanted a treat from the bakery. Daddy deserves a treat from the bakery. Daddy wanted a delicious treat from the bakery. Daddy just wants a treat from the bakery. Daddy wanted a delicious treat
Starting point is 00:59:46 from the bakery. Get it, daddy. And we were driving along and I saw a sign on the side of the road that said pullets and then a phone number beside it. Now, for those who don't know, a pullet is what a chicken is between a chick and a hen. It's a teenage chicken. Oh, okay. A pullet. It's just before they start
Starting point is 01:00:02 laying and that's kind of when you buy them and get them settled in. Are they moody? Probably pretty angsty. Are they pulling my leg with their BS? Pull it. They're pulling it. We got there in the end.
Starting point is 01:00:16 So I rang the number, and I talked to a lady, and she said, oh, yeah, I think my husband's latest order's all spoken for, but I'll take down your number, and we'll give you a call if anything pops up. And I was like, I know chickens are hard to come by because the eggs and the cost of living and everybody was like, let's get some chickens. So everybody's just ramming some chickens in the backyard. Everybody's just like, ram, ram, ram, ram, ram, ram.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Whether we've got the space or not. Ramming a chicken in there. Well, you had chickens growing up. It's so good for eggs. So great for eggs. And great for scraps. Yeah. I'm looking forward to chucking them in the veggie garden at the end of winter
Starting point is 01:00:47 because they'll go around and they'll scratch all the surface. Dead bodies. They'll eat all the weeds and tanks of wine. No, those are the pigs. Oh. You've got to get pigs for that. That's what it's the pigs for. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:00:55 That's what we've got the pigs for. Dude, if you're using chickens, I'd be checking on those bodies. Bodies. But mind you, a chicken will eat a dead thing in a paddock. Will it? Will they? Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a dead possum and the chickens had it.
Starting point is 01:01:07 All the soft bits. The chickens really liked it. And then they turned it into eggs. Now that's a magical transaction. That's, I don't know if I want those omelettes.

And then I put the chickens in the house and then we've got chickens. Wow, that was quick. It all went from no chickens to 10 chickens pretty quick. That was quick.

Starting point is 01:07:18 Or a Roxy seal. You're a Roxy babe. Yeah, I'm a Roxy babe. You know me, I'm a hashtag. Roxy babe. Underscore. Roxy underscore babe. Just like your seal ancestors. So people are saying, people who study orcas,
Starting point is 01:07:33 let's call them orcalologists, are saying that they believe this isn't like an act of aggression that they are turning to and will become habit. They believe this is a viral cultural trend amongst the Orcas. Oh, my God, like on TikTok. Oh, my God. Yes. How are they seeing?
Starting point is 01:07:51 Hashtag viral. Hashtag viral. Like, how are they seeing, or how is it getting from one side of the world to the other? Well, they travel as pods. And this started happening in Europe last September. Yeah. And has kind of spread around a little bit since.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Yeah. But they do believe that orcas do participate, especially young orcas, just like young humans, participate in viral trends, viral cultural trends. Oh, my God. This is wild. For studying, a long time for studying orcas has shown that this is indeed a thing.
Starting point is 01:08:23 In 1987, a female orca was spotted in the Pacific Northwest with a dead salmon draped over her nose. So a big salmon killed it and then draped it over her nose. Yeah. And then over the next six weeks, individuals within three pods in the area were all sporting veils of decaying salmon. And then it spread further down the Pacific Northwest coast,
Starting point is 01:08:45 where other orcas were spotted with salmon strapped over their heads. Were they just like, hey, guys, look, I've got a hat on. Guys, check me out, check me out, check me out. I've got a salmon hat. Got a fish hat on. What do you guys think? Oh, my God, that fish hat looks so good. And then they all started wearing dead fish hats.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Oh, my God, that's wild. And it spread down the coast of Canada and down into like the Pacific Northwest of America. So this isn't the only time things like this have, they said that they had never in a specific pod seen an act that they later called kelping, which was a mother orca goes off hunting and the calves lie upside down in kelp.
Starting point is 01:09:27 Right. Now, they believed it was done because it felt good, but in all the time studying young calves left by themselves while their mothers hunted, they'd never seen it. And then they started seeing it more and more in the surrounding pods. So when they see each other in pods, they communicate somehow this trend. Yes, they do. Wow.
Starting point is 01:09:43 They're very smart creatures and they do, they... Well, this is bad news for sea kayakers, isn't it? Well, the thing is they get sick of it. They do these things. It's like any trend. They do it for a while and then they get sick of it. We did planking a lot, didn't we? God, we were planking.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Remember when we were all the time planking? I did five ice bucket challenges. Yeah. I keep getting sick. Yeah, now we don't do the ice bucket. Now we just got over it. Yeah. For it.
Starting point is 01:10:07 So they said another one that they noticed after studying orchestras for a very long time was two particular pods, whenever they came together after a long absence, did an elaborate greeting ceremony. Oh, yeah. Like a handshake with your pals. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:20 And it's your group handshake. So they'd do it, and then they noticed that more and more pods were doing long, elaborate greetings. And they'd do it and then they noticed that more and more pods were doing long, elaborate greetings and then they said it just started to fade out and no one was doing,
Starting point is 01:10:30 none of the orcas were doing it anymore. It's so fascinating. Yeah. And they said probably the most worrying one was when they'd surround a dolphin and play with it to death.
Starting point is 01:10:39 Yeah. Oh, no, that's not a nice one. Just kind of like effectively bullying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like when you film your fights down at the bus station on the way home from school.
Starting point is 01:10:47 They just play with this dolphin until the dolphin died. So today's fact of the day is young orcas partake in cultural trends. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yeah. It's actually been crowned the world's ugliest dog of 2023. Does it have fur? Nope. Yeah, I think I know. Chinese crest. Chinese crest, yeah. The dog or the type of dog that wins this all the time.
Starting point is 01:11:32 Every year. Tongue hangs out to the side. He's got sort of like wispy old man hair and hairy ears. Yuck. I want to say looks unlovable. But someone loves him. It's like those cats with no hair. I'm just like, no.
Starting point is 01:11:47 Yeah, I don't like them. I think they're quite intelligent cats, though. Yeah, they're bouge, but they're not nice. They look like a scrotum, though, don't they? I mean, you've got to trade off intelligence for beauty, then. I love giving Murray a big pat, like a big. Yeah. And he's just like, pet me. Because he's dumb.
Starting point is 01:12:04 So this dog's had a bit. Scooter was born with his hind legs that face backwards. Sorry. He was born with his legs on backwards. But his both of his hind legs face the wrong way. Like when you take. He can't walk. When you take legs and arms off a doll and then put them on the other launches.
Starting point is 01:12:21 Yes, yes. The wrong way around. And then turn their head around. Yeah. And be like, ha, ha, ha. And they've got a bum on the wrong way around. And then turn their head around. Yeah. And be like, ha-ha. And they've got a bum on the front. Yeah. And tits on their back.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Yeah. Well, he was so ugly that the breeder of this dog took him to get euthanized. Aw. But was rescued and adopted and now walks with the aid of a snaggledized cart. Oh, he's going to drag his back legs around. I must admit, I quite like seeing the dogs that struggle to walk, the videos of the dogs that struggle to walk to get a little cart. Of course.
Starting point is 01:12:50 And they're making a run again, and they just look real happy. Yeah, very resilient pup, they say. No one's rushing out to get one of these dogs. So his other competitors that he beat, Wild Thing, a seven-year-old Pekingese with no teeth, and Rascal Deux, a hairless mutant with different coloured eyes and a loose tongue. Is he like the hairless mutant? Do they do like a global casting call for this ugliest dog?
Starting point is 01:13:14 Like, do you submit a photo? How does this work? I think this is part of a competition done in California. Oh, right. So I'm sure there's ugly dog competitions all around. What was that dog that I was petting lots at that bar? That was a St. Bernard. It was a small St. Bernard.
Starting point is 01:13:34 Because I thought it was in Newfoundland. It's so cute. I want a dog like that. It was pretty cute. Lots of hair though, long. Oh, did they have lots of hair? So cute. Well, you saw it.
Starting point is 01:13:44 It had a lot of hair. You know, it kept petting it did have lots of hair. So cute. Well, you saw it. It had a lot of hair. You know, it kept padding up. A lot of long hair. I don't know that we do, they call that the California competition, they call that the world's ugliest. Right. So I don't think that New Zealand has a specific one.
Starting point is 01:14:00 Well, there's a gap in the market. We should do it. Do you think? New Zealand's ugliest dog. ZM's ugliest dog. Yeah. Right. But what's the prize? Do we have a prize?
Starting point is 01:14:10 We'll get a sponsor. We take it off your hands. We take it to a farm. Free euthanisation. Yeah, free youth. That's the prize. And a trophy. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 01:14:21 And a photo with Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. No one's going to enter. That's not a prize. It's a punishment. Yeah. For having an ugly dog. No, we course. And a photo with Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. No one's going to enter. That's not a prize. It's a punishment. Yeah. If I have an ugly dog. No, we'll reward you for loving it regardless. Yeah, totally.
Starting point is 01:14:30 Dogs are so lovable. They all deserve a life. Even this ugly thing. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. When did I last? Was I here when I had vertigo? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:42 Yeah. I've known you to have vertigo. Yeah. She's got vertigo. I've got vertigo. Everybody. She's got vertigo. I I had vertigo? Yeah. I'm telling you to have vertigo. Yeah. She's got vertigo. I've got vertigo. She's got vertigo. I've got vertigo, vertigo on the floor. And I'm spinning and dizzy like never before.
Starting point is 01:14:56 And I'm clinging to the desk. Okay, so vertigo is a symptom rather than a condition of itself. It's a sensation that you or the environment around you is moving or spinning. Yes. I get this when I lean my head too far back. Do you? Yeah, if I'm like lying flat, yeah, if I lie on the couch and then I go like
Starting point is 01:15:15 wah and be dramatic and put my head off and it goes too far back, I get it. Or even if I sat here and I lean too far back, I can feel it coming on as I stand. Right, yeah. So how's it caused? Well, the last time I had it, it was an ear thing. There's something, the crystals in your ears get out of whack, and then so your balance is all off. We have to recharge your crystals in the moon.
Starting point is 01:15:33 And I missed the full moon. Sorry, I'm stuck. I'm stuck for weeks. Oh, no. Yeah. No, your ear, you've got these little ear crystals or something like that, and then the way I got rid of it last time was this, like, technique. Everyone will know what I'm talking about if you've had it before. And you move way I got rid of it last time was this like technique.
Starting point is 01:15:46 Everyone will know what I'm talking about if you've had it before. And you move your head, then your shoulders, then your head. And there's like a system and it puts it all back. It was the weirdest, most like, kind of felt a bit hocus pocus. Right. But it worked. Really? I literally walked down there and was like, oh, thank God. And last time it started when I got into my car.
Starting point is 01:16:02 And you know when you get to reverse and you like that, and you flick your head behind you? Yes. And then my eyes go guh, guh, guh, guh, and the whole world goes jing, jing, jing, jing, jing. So you can't take anything to fix it? No, I don't think so. You've got to get so sore at your crystals, babe. It's a nerve.
Starting point is 01:16:17 Okay, right. Is it a pusher? Because sometimes for me, it feels like a lint on a nerve. Yeah, I don't know. Oh, that's so weird. I know. I don't know why it's come back. I do flips in the
Starting point is 01:16:27 pool. Yeah, yeah. If I do like a flip in the pool. We need you doing flips in the pool. I haven't really been doing a lot of flips in the pool. Not into the pool, I'm already in the pool. Oh, you're doing underwater flips. Yeah, I haven't been in the pool. I'm the household champ for how many flips can you do underwater
Starting point is 01:16:43 in the pool. Me too. Four. And I get to hold the side of the pool and I'm like, let me do that again. I'm better at the back ones. I'm better at back flips in the pool. Okay. But I haven't been doing them. But yeah, this whole time, if I look at you like I'm losing the plot, it's because you're dancing in front of me.
Starting point is 01:16:57 I'm going sideways. You're like jolting away. So that's another little fun thing. Fun thing to sort out. I mean, after seeing your show at the weekend, Ailments, your comedy show, which was very fantastic. To which two doctors attended. Two doctors were there.
Starting point is 01:17:13 Yeah, yeah. They can back up your list of ailments. Yeah, I know. And Dr. Shawnee, who recently I went to with a couple of rashes and what I suspected was MS. Yeah. When I told him I had vertigo he's sick of hearing it
Starting point is 01:17:26 really he's just like what now sure you do but then when you said crystals his ears picked up again because he's holistic
Starting point is 01:17:34 he's a homo he's homeopathic yeah you were in so much trouble for calling him he was so upset about you calling him a
Starting point is 01:17:42 let me guess the cure for this vertigo is amethyst some rose quartz well if you enjoyed that give us a rating He was so upset about you calling him that. Let me guess, the cure for this vertigo is amethyst. Some roast quarts. Well, if you enjoyed that, give us a rating and review and be sure to tell your mates. You know what? I reckon your script reading is getting better.
Starting point is 01:17:55 I think it is too. I give it five stars. Thank you. Just like I'd give this podcast. I'm telling my friends about your script reading too. Thank you. Much like I'm going to do about this podcast. Thank you, Vaughan and Hayley
Starting point is 01:18:06 for that. Good boy. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
