This is Fleshhorn and Haley's Big Pod.
Thanks to animates, making happy happen for pets.
ZM's Fleshhorn and Haley.
Thank you, Bryn. Good morning.
Fletchhorn and Haley, happy Tuesday.
Just think of the long weekend ahead.
It's not Tuesday, is it?
If you're struggling to face the fact that it's only Tuesday and it's early.
It's in that crunchy point where like it's cold.
in the mornings.
We're so far away from our summer holiday
and like the next one.
It's just...
Yeah, we need that long weekend.
Well, it's coming up this weekend.
Guys!
Your chance this morning to win with Deal or Reveal

Bit of cash.
Bit of cash in there.
Money can't buy stuff.
Money can't buy love.
8 o'clock or Olivia Dean tickets.
Or Olivia Dean tickets.
So 8 o'clock if you want to play deal or reveal?
Yeah, that's right.
I was just going to say, guys, if you've just joined the show for the first time, good morning.
I'm Haley.
I'm Fletchford and Haley.
I'm having a look at the golf clothes.
Now, if you missed us yesterday, I went to a driving range once in my life and now I'm a golfer.
And now you're a, yeah.
Oh, my God.
The clothes.
Did you join that Facebook page, Hobbies for people with ADHD?
That was the funniest text of the day.
This is the funniest text. Someone messaged in for people like me
that just are like, I'm going to give everything to skateboarding and this and this and this.
There is literally an ADHD hobby swap for people that just go hard and then go,
I'm not going to do that.
So I can buy this and I'll join the group.
Ridiculous.
The top six is soon.
Who does the famed American restaurant slash place to go and ogles some boobies?
is looking to have a rebrand to make itself more family friendly.
However, I will say, demanding to keep the double O.
Has feminism sort of squashed the ogglers, maybe?
And they're not getting enough ooglers in there.
If anything I can tell you in this current world,
more ogling than ever before.
I went to one once because it was,
I was travelling overseas in Central America,
and there was one right by the hotel.
It's the only thing open.
I'm hungry.
It was like holidays, and I was like, oh, I'll go.
And then you're just like, oh, where do I look?
Like this is weird but great food.
You look at the boobies.
Great wings. Great wings. I heard the wings are great.
And the boobies everywhere and you're just like, okay, this seems like really outdated.
But here we are.
I don't know.
They obviously want to get more people in and...
Get the kids in there.
Yeah, yeah.
You know.
You're a bit wild move to take your family to Hooters.
Your kids, it's maybe your wife.
She's not going to be happy.
She's not there.
She's got to see you're looking.
Oh, come on now.
Great wings.
Great.
We're here for the wings, love.
Just remember that.
I've heard they're just great wings.
I'm not even looking.
Oh, are there boobies out?
Great wings.
I didn't even know that was a theme of the place.
Well, I've got the top six names for a rebranded hooters, but keeping the double O.
Okay.
Because.
Oh, yeah.
Next, on the show.
The Pope is apparently killed now.
The Fletch morning, Haley, big pod.
I didn't have to be baptized to go to my high school.
It was Presbyterian.
Presbyterians feels pretty loose as well.
Like there was no real guide to us.
Well, the Pope is in the news.
That's why we're talking about religione.
As the show is Catholic, I was raised Catholic.
I feel like I can lead us into the story about the Pope.
And also someone who will still rock one of these,
I can also lead you on six, seven news.
Oh.
Can we stop?
It's dead now.
Yeah, well, it's officially done.
Because this is audio of a bunch of kids at the Vatican
who traveled to the Vatican
to see the pop
to see the pop and when they got some face time
with him asked them to do 6'7
6-7
Oh my God
Oh you heard him go 6-7
6-7
6-7
6-7
Oh 6-7
Yeah you hear him go 6-7
And then when he left in the Pope-Mobile
He did it to the crowd
Oh my God
I don't think he knows what he's doing
He needs to do it
And he's like, sure, I'll do that.
And then they were doing it to him in the crowd.
He's months late.
He's months late to the party.
Like, I feel like it's, well, you've got kids.
It's dead, right?
No, it's not.
Is it not?
No, I heard it the other day behind me.
And I was like, wow, when we were kids, nothing would last that long.
It would be like, in and out, a trend like that.
Now, six, seven.
And now the Pope's done it, though, it's dead now.
Well, you know, someone, there was a one, six, seven order at Maccas the other day.
I was mentioned, did I mention this on the pod, maybe?
No, that's what the car.
Or the other day.
And every all the kids are like,
I was like, grow up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's a big one of the...
A grumpy old stranger.
Oh, stop it.
Shush.
Stop having fun.
Shush, you kids.
Stop enjoying things.
Stop enjoying life.
Life's miserable.
Get used to it.
Oh, God.
So I reckon, like, you know, when your dad does something
and now it's not cool anymore?
Yes.
Like the Pope's, like, next level dad.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, he's got to have killed this trend.
If the Pope's doing it.
Also the minute anybody becomes Pope,
they just look 20 years older.
They seem to shuffle a bit.
Are the underpants tight?
Is the robe the walking?
No, yeah.
Is your frock too tight?
Is your frock too tight?
Do you need to sort of get a bit of a seam allowance out in your frock?
Maybe.
Heavy, all that kind of garby wears.
Maybe.
But they just seem to just start shuffling and moving really slowly.
He, because everyone praised this Pope, Pope for him,
Leo.
Jessica Rellan Leo.
So being a bit more.
modern because he was like, yars
quains to the gays, wasn't he?
I think it was a bit yars to the gays.
It was a bit yars to the gays. Not full
yars to the gays. Semi-mi-
maybe that's why he said a walking phone.
Born.
Yars.
The Fletchbourne and Haley
Big Pod.
From the Fletchbourne and Haley
group chat, this is the top
six.
Who is? It is turning over a new wing
Good.
Because it's the owl, right?
Yeah, it's good.
It took me a long time to realise there was even an owl involved.
For those that don't know, it's a famous American chain all over the world except New Zealand.
So I think there were some in Australia maybe that closed down.
Yeah, and the Goldie.
Yeah.
And just, yeah, scantily clad boobies.
They weren't scantily clad.
The boobbies were fully covered, but the shirts were very tight and the orange hot pants were, you know.
I call that scantily.
Not in a judgmental way, but there's not much.
I don't know what they wear on their feet.
Sneakers.
Sneakers.
Sneakers.
Yeah.
Snickers.
Well, comfort is important.
It's aiming to trade its spice image for a more family-friendly neighborhood flavor apparently.
Cute.
Beach themed.
Send it around the Hooters Girls, good food and an easy place to relax.
So don't they're not gone completely.
Okay.
They're not gone completely.
Started in 1983.
I feel like your, because your mum and dad travel a lot, Vaugh.
Your dad would have been told us.
a hooters? Yeah, mum would go to a hooters
for the wings. For the wings.
And she'd laugh at your dad when he's
trying it on with the waiters.
Oh, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She loves watching him make a full of himself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, great. We're all going to live.
Well, I've got the top six names for a rebranded hooters, but you've got to keep the
double I's. Okay, you got to keep the double I's. Number six on the list,
woo-hoo!
Is the name, that's the new name? That's the new name of hooters. Yeah. Right. Woo-hoo.
H-O-O-O. Get two double-O's in.
Yeah, yeah. It's late, man. I'm starving.
Where should we go?
Woo-hoo!
I actually quite like that. That'd stick.
Number five on the list of the top six names for a rebranded hooters, but keeping the double-o's,
Vroom.
Car-themed.
Yeah, right.
So they introduce a car theme to it, and the double-oes could be headlights of the car.
Yeah.
Is that going to make it more family-friendly?
I just don't know if mum's going to turn up with the kids and dad, if the waitresses are all like that still?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think that's their problem.
That's the main family-friendly element
that needs a bit of adjustment.
I don't know, yeah.
I think you guys are a bit judgmental of mum.
Actually, yeah.
Yeah, fair call, maybe.
Number four on the list of the top six names
for a rebranded hooters but keeping the double-oes.
Hootie-Coo.
I don't think we could say coochie in there.
You don't think we can say coochie on radio
and now we've said it about four times.
Also, it's a lot to have on a sign.
It is, but we've like three double-Os there.
Yeah, okay, right.
Three lots of double-oes.
Number three on the last.
list of the top six names for rebranded hooters but keeping the double o's oga so how are you spelling

How do I know if you're drooling over my wings or my baps?
That's the magic of of drool.
You don't know.
Okay.
And number one on the list of the top six names through a re-branded hooters but keeping the double-oze.
Just boobies.
Just boobies.
Let's be honest.
Let's be honest.
It's got nothing to do with owls.
All the wings?
All the wings.
We're not really there for the wings, are we?
No.
We're all over there.
For the wings.
Boobies.
That is today's top sucks.
The Z&M Podcast Network.
I just realized I'm a boy.
Remember boy kibble?
It was the batch-cooked mints and rice
that all the gym bras were getting on.
I've got mints for brecki
and I've got rice for lunch.
I'm a boy. I'm doing separated boy kibble.
You've got boy kibble.
I know I'm a boy kibble.
Because it looks like kibble, like biscuits
you'd give you a cat or your dog.
Yeah, it just looks like animal feed.
But you guys do girl dinner.
We do...
We do...
Which is a series of small snacks
that don't correspond into a cohesive meal.
I would say boy dinner is actually better for you
because a big amount of protein and some good carbs.
Brah.
Well, huge brah.
Jim TikTok trend, the boy carbs.
Microbiologists are warning that there's so many reported cases of these boys
eating their boy cubble and getting really, really sick.
Do you know why?
It's the rice.
Oh, the rule about reheating rice.
I think you're going to say because there's not an ounce of vegetable in the kibble.
There is half an onion in the mix.
Well, sometimes the boy kibble, you put in some frozen mixed veg.
Well, I've got in my grated corsets and carrots
And, you know, I did a fridge kibble
Lovely.
Fridge kibble.
That's nice.
Yours is a bit posh girl kibble.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I touch the red one.
Yeah.
So, yeah, micro-brile,
because rice is one of the main sources of food poisoning
because bacteria thrives on starchy.
Yeah.
Foods like that.
Yes, why if you do do rice, like fried rice is best to use old rice,
but you thoroughly, like, recook it.
this is what I made for lunch
was a fried rice.
Do you know what I did though was
because I didn't have rice, day old rice
I did like an Uncle Ben's in the bag
and then I reheated that.
And then I fried that. Right.
Shouldn't you just fry it straight from the bag?
I thought the same
and I panicked and needed moisture.
I don't know, I don't know anyway.
That microwave...
What is the deal with...
It's magic stuff.
Oh no.
How does it sit on the shelf like that?
I know.
Wait, it's pre-cooked right.
The rice in a bag.
Yeah.
You're just steaming it hot.
So just put it straight in the pan.
Fried immediately.
Yeah, but how is it in that bag?
But it's dry it.
Not refrigerated at the supermarket and not come out moldy.
And it's like a brick.
Because it's covered in like oily.
A coating?
A coating?
Preservatives.
Oh my God, how does it work?
I mean, it's just something I've never questioned.
9-6.9-6.
How does rice in a bag work?
Because it blows my mouth.
I don't know.
I just panicked.
It was the only rice I had.
Because when you actually want to cook rice, it's so like time-consuming and then you've got to get it right.
No, I make a good rice.
And people are like, get a rice cooker.
It's called a pot.
It's so easy.
And then you've got to clean the pot.
Bring it to the boil, turn it off, keep the lid on.
No, you put the bag in the microwave for two minutes.
I use my instant pot.
It's got a rice button.
Look at us.
Three different ways.
I'd say I'm top tier because I cook it in a pot.
Oh, you're a bit posher.
Oh, you're better than everyone.
Just call me China.
Don't call me Chinese.
Your second tier, because you're cooking in a rice cooker.
The cooker does it for you.
And I'm trash.
And you're trash because you're in a bag.
I'm Uncle Ben's trash.
With your silky coating on your rice.
You never need any more rice than that.
That's perfect.
You do you.
So here it goes.
How does the bag work?
The rice is pre-cooked and sealed in a specifically designed steam permeable pouch
with a small amount of water.
When you microwave it, the water turns to steam, which is trapped inside the pouch.
It's water in there.
But you've got to rip the little corner open.
You're making a rice bomb.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It gets trapped inside the pouches essentially rehydrates and heats the rice from within like a mini pressure cooker.
This sounds like a different, because you've got to open the.
Yeah, you've got to open the bag.
You've got to open.
Why 90 seconds?
The rice needs to hit a consistent internal temperature all the way through.
90 seconds is a sweet spot for a standard 800 watt microwave to do that
without drying itself out or leaving cold spots.
Yeah, it was moist rice.
You've got to break it up.
You've got to break it up.
Yeah.
Well, isn't science amazing?
Science is amazing.
The reason boys eating their boycable are getting sick is because they're not heating it enough.
Cooking rice kills the bacteria, but not its heat-resistant spores.
Oh, Jesus.
That sounds like a fungus, doesn't it?
That multiply quite rapidly when they get to a room temperature.
So you can't be doing it.
And then if you put it back into the fridge, I mean, you're just a goner.
Yeah.
So if you're a boy and you're making your boycabble, or like me, you've got your girl boycibble.
Yeah, warn your boyfriend's girls.
Hot, hot, hot rice, eat it immediately.
Scorch the roof of that mouse.
If I invited you to a party and it was a costume party,
and the theme was your first job, what would you come dressed as?
Because this is a thing that people are doing and they're sharing,
and it is such a cool theme.
Because it's kind of nice and easy.
Deliver junk mail.
That was my first job.
I was a paper girl.
I would just come dressed as...
Junk.
Or like I'd just have a bag of junk mail.
of warehouse catalogs.
Mine would be one of the big, I had the evening post.
Oh yeah.
And I was in charge of the evening post in Eastbourne.
And I had the big yellow sack, big leathery yellow bag,
and you'd go and roll them up.
And deliver the newspapers?
That form, what would you come as?
Petra Station?
Yeah, when you were a shell.
So you could get a little polo with some black pants and a shell.
Yeah.
What about you, producer Gullies?
What would you, if I invited you to my costume party that was first job,
what would it be?
I think probably a cleaner.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cleaner.
So you get a smock.
You'd have a smock with a bucket
and some spray and wipes.
Bring a mop.
A little iPod Nano.
That was really important to have.
Oh, yeah.
On a cord.
Shandolk.
I worked at a radio station
and then I was a waitress.
So you just had some headphones on.
Yeah, just barely, wiki, wiki, wiki.
I reckon.
That's how I did.
Is that how radio works?
WikiWi.
I don't think I've heard a wiki wiki.
No, I worked at a wikiwiki.
community stations. It was like different.
There wouldn't have been a lot of wiki-wiki.
Yeah.
It was. I had free rain, man. I was like 12.
It was crazy. So Kelsey's coming to my party
dressed as a lunch lady in a one-piece
blue smock with a zip up the front.
Love that. That was her first
job. Lunch lady?
Yeah, I guess so.
I mean, do you count your
kid jobs? Because otherwise
I think so. I come as if my dad's
phone receptionist. Oh yeah, if you're counting kid jobs
are just farm stuff.
Yeah, if it's kid jobs. That would be much easier.
They were actually to dress up, just gumboots and a pair of overall.
First, like, government, I paid tax on it proper, proper job.
I was a waitress at a cafe opposite parliament.
I only used to serve all the politicians.
My first job was a surf instructor, so board shorts, bare feet and a bright red rash shirt.
See?
Messages in three-nine face.
It would look great.
This would be a great party.
Yeah, it would be a great party.
Someone said the first job I had was those real fruit ice creams.
The ones where they chuck the fries and berries and berries and they're.
the machine and then crank it down.
At my party, I'm going to hire one of those machines
and that person can work it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
My dad owned a local camera shop
for my first job at 15
was to dress up as an elf
and take photos of Santa in the mall.
See, now we've got to serve lifesaver.
With a camera.
Yep.
Love that.
And now they're taking photos.
They're taking photos at the party
because they'll be elf with the camera.
I feel like because there's so many
like, Subway was their first job.
Yeah.
We'll make it a potluck and you have to bring a food
that was adjacent to like your job.
Yeah.
If you're an office worker, I'd bring, like, sushi.
This 669 worked at a cheese factory.
So they're bringing cheese.
And they're wearing an apron.
I really love to see inside a cheese factory.
Yeah.
What would you wear for a job where you run out and steal golf balls off the green
after people hit them there and then sell it back to them three holes later?
A little shit bag.
A little shipbag costume.
Is that an official job?
I don't think you paid tax on that.
No.
Yeah.
Doodoo lolly sales when I was 10.
We had a large box of lolly's strapped to us
and we had to look sad to say the proceeds
went to save the kids.
So they could walk around with a lolly thing at the party.
It's a great theme idea for a party.
I think this is really fun.
I might throw this party for us
and we can all come in our little first job outfits
and have fun and then some people can bring cheese and subway.
Play Z-N's fleshed and Haley.
Well Trader Joe's is a supermarket chain
in America.
America.
I saw it real yesterday
was someone walking down the street
because the,
you know,
the Trader Joe's bags,
the tote bags is very,
very famous.
Yeah.
A real yesterday it was like
the amount of Trader Joe's in London,
zero, the amount of bags,
9,000.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, everyone has one of these tote bags.
Very cool.
Because is it kind of like
whole foody,
trade a job?
Yeah, it is.
It's pretty cool.
It's a bit nice.
Yeah.
It's a bit nice,
a bit bougie.
Yeah.
So they,
they released a candy,
some sour worms.
And they have,
had to warn, apparently checkout staff have now been warning customers because there's a lot
of fibre in these sour gummy worms that they've been selling. Now, 70 grams a bag.
Holy shh. Now, the, the average adult should aim for 25 to 38 grams of fiber a day. People
have been sitting down to watch TV and eating a whole bag. I would eat a whole bag of gummies,
sour worms. Same. Same. And it's sitting. Same. Easy. Easy. And so now they've been going viral because
People are like, oh my God, one person said, I've been pooping all day and my stomach keeps rumbling.
I've poop myself.
Another joked on Reddit.
I ate a whole bag high, not realizing how much fiber was in these.
I've been pooping for three days now, said someone.
Oh, whoa.
Someone said, I made a mistake.
I had a whole bag while watching TV.
I was late for work the next morning.
Still at home.
And they've put signs up next to the bag saying there's a lot of fiber in these.
So one or two is okay, but if you had a whole bag, you're having my...
Multiple days worth of fibre.
Yeah, but also I'm assuming maybe there,
because a lot of those artificial sweetness will rip through you.
Yes.
Like, oh my God, they have to destroy me.
Yeah.
But I reckon the catch will be on those sour worms.
It'll be like servings per bag, you know, six.
Yes, they do.
But we don't honour the serving.
So the gummy worms got 14 grams of fibre per serving,
and one serving is eight pieces.
No one's eating eight worms.
No, no.
I'm hoon in the bag.
and you should be aware of that.
Yeah.
But this is what I wanted to know,
is there a food that doesn't agree with you?
Like, maybe you've got a weird allergy
or you're allergic to some foods or just a food.
Or it just rips you apart.
It just rip and you just can't eat it.
I mean, I'm an onion garlic girl with me, my IBS,
but for some weird reason, pumpkin.
And I would break out in a bit of a pink rash.
Very pink rash.
You get a pink.
For pumpkin.
I'll still eat it.
I love it.
I love pumpkin.
And apples close my throat slightly, but they,
Yum. Wait, you eat apple every
morning. It makes it a little bit.
And I'm always like,
you just want to feel alive?
I just want to like, a bit of risk.
Okay, well, 0800 dials at him as our number.
Give us a call and text through 9-696.
We want to know the food that does not agree with you.
So we want to know what upsets your tum.
What does...
What fits your tongue?
The food goes straight through you.
I was thinking along these lines,
the Haribou gummy beers, the sugar-free,
they rip through me.
The sugar alcohols, say xylitol and strasol and so on.
Someone's said I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to muscles.
I've never spewed from being on the booze and muscles.
Never the day after drinking, only the day of drinking,
but if I eat muscles within 10 minutes, anything,
sometimes I'll eat something, don't know there's muscles in it,
and then I'll be sick and I'll be like, did that have muscles in it?
What food has surprise muscles?
Do you know what?
You know what?
That's a really good question.
Chowder?
Maybe a chowder?
Yeah, some kind of...
Surprise.
Surprise.
There's a muscle.
If you're eating...
If your muscles make you sick
and there's a seafood chatter,
you're asking if it's got muscles.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we need to know.
Chicken soup, but only when it's got corn in it.
I don't have any problem eating corn on its own.
Or chicken soup without corn.
But the combo of chicken soup with corn in it...
Straight through.
What is it about a kernel?
Just a rogue colonel.
I don't know.
Wow.
Misculein lettuce.
Straight through me.
The record is 20 minutes.
from eating to pooping.
What?
Didn't even look chewed and it floated on the bowl.
I love musculin.
I've got lots of food allergies.
The one that surprises people is kiwi fruit.
I love Kiwis.
Destroyes them.
Really?
Well, they do.
They are relaxed.
Fiborous.
Very fibrous.
I can eat anything.
Always a solid pooper without fail.
Street meat in India, no worries.
Gut is a fortress.
However, one apple, instant vomit.
No idea because I love apples.
What?
Every time they eat an apple.
Yeah, they vomit.
Isn't the body mysterious?
It's so weird, eh?
Somebody said pork.
Yeah, pork's a bit yuck.
Let's go straight through me.
Really?
Yeah.
Beans, and it's a really weird one.
I'll eat beans, and within a minute, I'll be starting to toot.
It's not like 20 minutes later or, you know.
It's instantly.
It's instant.
That's vibrant as, beans.
Dark chocolate is the biggest no-no.
Go straight in, straight out.
Milk chocolate takes a little bit longer, but still not great.
White chocolate's okay.
Because it's not chocolate.
So that sounds like a dairy intolerance.
Yeah.
We have a friend, Ney.
No, no, it's not a dairy intolerance.
It's a chocolate intolerance because the dark chocolate is the worst.
Yeah, right.
But our friend Ney has those little pills every time he wants to eat cheese.
Yeah.
And milk.
The lactase.
Lactase.
Orange juice.
I sniff it.
And it's like my tummy's giving up all ability to function.
Really?
If I drink it, straight in one end, straight out the other.
Oh, goodness.
That's so crazy.
Leanne, what is the food that doesn't agree with you?
Tomatoes make me really, really sick.
Yeah.
And apples, make my gums.
If they're not really fresh, they swell and get really itchy.
So you're just, it sounds like you're just meant to eat junk food, Leanne.
Yeah, it sounds like it.
No, I feel that could be my calling, but.
Yeah.
Like, because these are all...
The other parts of me don't like it.
Yeah, right.
Wow.
All the healthy stuff.
Your body's like, no, Leanne.
We can't be having this.
Yeah.
Oh, that's sad because I love apples.
Yeah, apples are the best.
When Haley said that, I was like, oh, the only other person I've ever heard that says that.
I don't sweat.
My gums don't swell, though.
But wait, what have you had an apple pie?
Is it just the...
Oh, apple pie's fine, things like that.
But just like fresh apples, if they're straight off the tree, it's great.
Yep.
But, yeah, if they're just a little bit old, not so much.
That's crazy.
Leanne, thank you.
Some more messages.
Pineapple, quite popular.
Pineapple gives me mouth tingles.
Pineapple makes my tongue swell.
Isn't there something if you're allergic.
Allergic to pineapples, you'll also be alluded to something else.
Yeah.
What was that?
Fletches on the goggle.
If you're alluded to pineapple, your most cockroaches or so.
It wasn't something like that?
Sandflies.
Be cautious with kiwi, papaya, mango, banana, avocado and latex.
We're having a bar.
Shared memory.
And latex.
I think you're allergic to shelfer.
You're allergic to dust mites or something as well.
Oh, Kiwi fruit and latex allergies.
Mm, very similar.
Really?
My son last night was eating barbecue shapes and broke out in hives.
And I was like, well, that's a damn shame because I love my barbecue shapes, but I don't have to share them anymore.
More for me.
Yeah.
I get a red onion headache every single time.
Red onion headache.
Yeah.
My partner's on a diet, so he has sugar-free caramel toffee.
And I tell you what, I ate one of those.
Like caramel toffee
Straight in the toilet
Anything sugar-free, eh
It rips right through me
Yeah
Yeah
My husband and I
Completed a three-day fast
And followed a plan of what food
To be reintroduced
The first one was miso soup
And holy moly
Less than half an hour
Both on a toilet totally cleaned out
Oh dear, it cleaned out
But if you haven't eaten for three days
What's even left?
I would have thought miso
Would have been a good bet
Just a little sort of salty broth
I have an allergy to mollusks
It's not shellfish
As I can eat lobsters and crabs
But any other shellfish makes me
Power vong
My dad's got the same thing with duck eggs
Specifically
What?
Chicken eggs
Fine
Not ducks
Yeah
We're all just out here
Just trying to eat
You know
My guts could not handle
Any red meat
Whatsoever pre-pregnancy
Postpartum though
The problem's solved
Oh
It's like on my body
What?
I have a friend that
Like reacted to gluten
not a celiac, but reacted to gluten so badly.
Post-pregnancy, she was like, it's fine.
It's all gone.
What does the body do pregnancy?
I don't know.
During pregnancy.
I have no idea.
What gets corrected or, like, leached out by that parasite.
The baby.
The parricides.
Unload all of your weaknesses onto the baby.
Yeah, there you go.
The ZM Podcast Network.
Play ZM's Flashfallen and Haley.
Curious, quickie little poll.
We want to know, would you be happy being a trad wife?
They're everywhere on social media.
And then on maths this year, Tyson came in.
And he said he was looking for a submissive wife.
And Mel, the expert, RIP, said, I think you're describing a dog.
And so yesterday we both watched Fletch, a 60 minutes kind of special coverage of this whole trad wife influencer thing.
You can watch it on YouTube.
Yeah.
And in it, they interviewed Tyson.
and he wanted to clarify his choice of words.
So submissive was the wrong word to use.
Traditional is the word I was looking for,
and the traditional is the word I wanted to use.
So to be clear then,
are you looking for a woman to serve and obey you?
I'm not looking for a dog.
I'm not looking to put my wife on a leash at all.
I think it comes down to choices
to be able to bond with my children,
or our children, I should say.
And if she wants to go back to work,
I'll support that.
If she wants to stay at home and cook and clean,
I'm not going to argue with that.
I would be such a bad trad wife.
I'm just, I'm so restless and just like...
You wouldn't make a great trad wife at all.
I'd be terrible, but I'm not here to judge,
but it's just been this whole thing
that's popped up on socials over the last few years.
And so the episode was like the 20 minutes long
about the trad wives,
it dealt with some Australian trad wives,
and then they talked to a UK trad wife
and an American couple.
Yeah, and we were,
were saying just before off-ed
that like a lot of it's
influencey, like they didn't really
touch base of anyone who actually is sort of just like
living this without sharing a few socials.
All of the trad wives were basically
influences and we're making
and we're working.
She did say that during that she's like you're basically
working. Influencing is a job. We're not saying that
being a housewife or a home
you know a stay at home mum or anything isn't a job
but it was just the way that Tyson
painted it with this kind of like submissive
serve your husband thing
which a lot of them kind of
promote. It's just an interesting
thing. So that's our quick little poll. Would you be
happy to be a trad wife?
64% of people said no, but 36%
of people said yes.
Does that shock you?
I'm so shocked. Ashley had some
text messages in as well.
Someone wrote, I was a
trad wife, wonderful being a housewife with all the time
with my children. However, it caused
control issues. I was a belonging
and I was owned in control. Yeah, that's
the difference between just having an
equal partnership. Yeah.
It's awful thinking back.
After 23 years I got out, went to work.
Now I'm back in school.
I also noticed my oldest kids are spoiled little adults now,
and my neglected children are hardworking young adults,
raised themselves while I was behind the bar.
Yeah, right.
So they learned to raise themselves,
whereas the ones that had everything done for them,
not so much.
Spoiled brats.
Yeah.
The big problem, somebody I said,
the men that sell the idea of a trad wife,
but are taking advantage of a woman's dependency.
this can become really toxic with the wrong person
and no legal action to protect you from leaving
if you need to without feeling trapped.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It can be quite imbalanced.
Especially if you don't have any,
if your whole life is just serving the household
and then you were to separate.
You've got to start again like that. I'll textor.
No, I wouldn't be a tradway. Funnily enough, every dude
who wants it is some flavour of douchebag. It's strange.
It was interesting during the 60 Minutes piece
they talked to that university
was she a professor in the UK.
and she was saying like the amount of young Gen Z men
that what, do you remember exactly what she said?
No, I can't remember.
Just that they feel like a woman should obey.
It's a bit manisphairy crossover.
Yeah, real manisphere kind of vibes.
Snuck back in.
It's so weird that this is happening,
not to get like too deep into it,
but you know like I've been having a few sort of social media comments recently.
And then the times that I weaken and want to see what they look like,
it's young, young men in their early 20s
who have that kind of like look that are online kind of like berating women
and fat shaming them and slut shaming them and stuff,
you're like, oh, we're back here, are we?
Yeah.
We're doing a little full circle return.
Let's not do that.
Some other feedback.
I'm a trad wife.
My kids are all school age, but I stay home and do all the home stuff.
It's a full-time job.
Sometimes I don't even have time to sit down and eat.
Yeah, I bet.
Imagine all the ADHD projects and hobbies you could do if you were.
A trad wife.
Imagine all the hobbies you could do every day.
I'd be a skateboarding on my way to the golf course.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'd be a trad wife with half a crocheted blanket, a sourdough phase,
start a abandoned after two days and 47 unfinished Pinterest ideas.
Yeah.
In my head, I say yes, because I'm so the opposite.
No joke about not running the farm anymore and being taken care of while I bake scones,
but in reality I just get so bored and would feel less than.
I am one, says Dale.
That's all Dale right.
I am one.
I am one.
All the chat time to do.
Okay.
Yes, because I'm tired and I want a man to go out and work,
but no, because I can't cook on my back hurts
when I clean in feminism and stuff.
Yeah, and feminism and stuff, eh?
Stay home, look after my baby, cook food
and have time to clean the house
and not to have to make big decisions sounds good to me.
I think there's more to it.
There's the lack of an independent identity, right?
I think there's a difference between a stay-at-home mom
and a home-bott, like a housekeep,
You know, like my mum, like she stayed at, well, no, she had a career,
but like afterwards she stayed at home and she kept the house
and got everything ready so dad could work.
There's that.
And then there's the trad wife thing, which is like serve and obey,
which is a little bit of that power imbalance.
You've got no say over finances, that kind of stuff.
That's where I think you get in a little bit of a dangerous position.
Nicholas said yes, but I remember if the guy's happy to be a proper trad husband
and die out war leaving me a nice war widow's pension.
Yeah
Actually, yeah
It goes both ways
It does
It does
Let's get out there
And stop those Nazis
Yeah
And also like
If you're going to be a trad wife
And you want them to be a trad husband
That income better be
Juicy as well
Yes
You can't be saying
Oh I want a trad wife
And then going off and
But also like
Who can afford to have only one person working
Like in
Yeah
It's nuts
Yeah it's nuts
I mean yeah
Well it's an interesting
What 60 Minutes
Australia had that
And on YouTube, if you want to watch that.
Yes.
Things House on the Gold Coast was so Gold Coast.
It was so gold Coast.
I'm so embarrassed.
Yeah, Maff's Tyson.
Yeah, MD6 bedroom house.
He's just waiting for his trad wife positions open.
Oh.
This is cute.
Couples, couples.
Where you are.
There is a cute little TikTok.
And they've got a website as well.
They're called A Twist of Date.
clever.
A twist of fate.
Yeah, you got it.
They are a UK couple that share date ideas that are affordable, free, and not Netflix.
Okay.
And they tried 74 free date ideas just at home or, you know, go to a park or whatever,
and have chosen their top three that they enjoyed as a couple the most.
Okay.
And on their TikTok and their website, there's all these ideas.
So if you're out of ideas and you're sick of each other,
you're like, suppose you're going to keep coming up with ways to spend time with the same person.
Great little thing, twist of date.
Netflix is easy.
And we've still got a few apps to go.
And then we don't have to talk.
Yeah, then we don't have to talk to each other.
I don't realize we don't like each other.
Okay, here was their top three in third place.
Pleadj is going to hate this.
I reckon you both will, because I kind of do.
Okay, Fletch, we're on date.
We've been together for a long time.
Have we?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I know.
So we're going to have a little dinner
We'll just cook it home together or whatever
A bottle of wine or whatever
But instead of a tablecloth on the table
We're going to put down some brown paper
Like some butcher's paper or just plain
Role of paper
And as we have dinner we're going to play
Sort of classic
Pen and Paper games
Norts and crosses
Eating on the floor
No no we're on table
I've laid the paper on the table
Okay
And then we've got pens
And as we sort of have dinner
We're also playing Nauts and Crosses.
I literally just bought a brand new table
and I don't want the ink going through onto it.
Yeah, well, I used to do my homework at my dining table as a kid
and the pen used to scratch into the varnish.
Yeah.
You'd see my bloody maths homework, and mum would be like,
so maybe put a layer.
Okay.
Nauts and crosses, little doodles.
Oh my God, divorce me now.
Okay, so you don't like number three?
Hate it.
I thought you were going to say, like,
it was a no-dicious thing and you just slop.
Because if you said it,
a picnic.
the food on the table.
Oh, yes.
And then they like just eat it with their hands.
Like a shaketery dinner.
And then you just like roll up the butcher's paper at the end.
Yeah.
Put a plastic tarp down.
Vaughn, you and I are together and we've been together.
Wait, I thought that was going to be when you said on the floor.
I thought it was going to be dinner on the floor like a picnic.
That's cute.
That's cute.
That's way cute than knots and crosses.
Okay.
Vaughn, you and I have been together for 40 years.
40 years.
And we're trying to keep date nights spicy.
Jesus.
Have you guys ever cheated on each other in the 40 years?
Yes.
multiple times.
It's the secret to our success.
Okay, right.
And we both know, but we've never, like, set it out now.
So it's non-ethical monogamy.
It's non-ethical monogamy.
We don't discuss it.
There's no rules around it.
No, it's not ethical non-monogamy.
Okay.
Yeah, non-ethical non-monogamy.
Otherwise, no, it's cheating.
40 years in, but we don't talk about it.
40 years in, we're going to play a game.
Yeah.
You know, Pictionary?
Already this couple sounds insufferable.
Yeah, Pictionary, so you draw a picture.
and the person kind of like guesses what it is,
we're doing relationship pictonary
and we've got 40 years to mine here.
So we each choose a memory.
Okay, I'm drawing you cheating on me.
Oh, that's crazy because I'm drawing that bitch La Toya
that you slept with.
Okay, and then we're doing that.
We're holding it up and the other person has to guess what the memory is.
It's relationship picture.
So I might draw, you know, a little trick.
But if we're being together for 40 years.
I'm really missing out on a lot, not having a relationship, huh?
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
Okay, here we go.
This is the number one idea.
God, help us all.
Those are the other two.
Their top idea that they liked the most.
This is a couple that posts date ideas for cheap dates called a twist of date.
How old are these people?
Between you and me, basically.
Like late 30s.
Jesus.
Yeah.
So, okay, the number one was.
It does sound as sufferable, no.
It's giving big, like, you know.
Big, God botherer.
It just goes a little, it's a big God-bothery.
So what we're going to do is Fletch and Vaughn,
we've been in a thruple for 60 years.
60 years.
What we're going to do for date night
is we're going to sit down on the couch
and we're going to put YouTube on the TV
and we're going to watch a Disney tutorial
of a Disney tutorial of drawing,
how to draw Mickey or Minnie or anything like that.
And then you,
can, we learn how to do it.
I'm sorry, this couple sounds
insufferable.
So we're learning to draw together.
We're learning to draw together.
Let's just watch Netflix.
You know, like there's nothing wrong
with just sitting and watching Netflix together.
Yeah.
And having a cuddle on the couch.
That's great.
Yeah, I know.
What do you think I want to be drawing Disney characters?
I don't know, some people...
This is over.
Someone just messages saying, oh my God, this sucks.
It does so.
This couple sucks, Haley.
How did this even get on air?
They suck.
What were some of their other ideas?
That was only their top three.
There's got to be some...
I don't know.
Organize the utensil draw.
Oh, hold on now we're talking.
Okay, build.
What's your theory on how to organise it?
If you've got two pairs of tongs, do you top and towel them?
No, you close, always close the tongs.
Of course you're closing.
Have you got two pairs of tongs are you top and tail them?
No.
No, heads together.
They don't need...
Heds together.
They're taking up so much more space.
But they're like...
They're square.
You know, they're still wider at the top of the bottom.
No, they're not.
jazz, like even barely perceptible.
What kind of odd tongs do you have?
The tongs are definitely wider?
9-6-96. When you close your tongs, are they slightly
wider at the top than at the bottom? Because they know
their time and tell them, they may be
sit together. Maybe a slight
bulb, but not a chelot.
It sounds like you were leaving your tongs wide
spread open. I'm not leaving my tongue spread.
That's madness. Close your legs, close your
tongs. Close your legs and close your tongs.
Close your legs and close your tongs. We've said it a thousand times.
Play. That ends. Flesh forun and Haley.
So yesterday I went to Rizine to get a little bottle of paint for some touch-ups
And I pulled up and it was like the afternoon but it was still we had a bit of a scorcher day yesterday
It was like lovely in the sun so it was warm and I pulled up and you best believe I was aghast when I put up to a parked car
Windows up dog inside and I just thought and I just doing that thing I was like this could be my chance
You know looking around yeah I'm looking around for a little
jumper or something I could put around my hand
and I was gonna smash it open and rescue the dog
maybe take the dog.
I mean it was an elbow by the way.
Maybe steal the dog.
I mean it was a nice...
Rock.
It was a nice day.
It was blue skies but it's not the heat of summer.
Calm down.
No, but in a car.
Yeah, true.
You're like, yeah.
Oh my God.
It's so hot.
So then I looked in and I was looking at the dog.
I will say it's a bejeon freeze
so I felt less inclined to say that.
Because it's, you know,
enough for those.
Yeah, it's end is nice.
and it's pink eyes.
I was going to say you're saving it and it's eye gunk gets on you.
It's not really like my mind was blowing.
One of my best friends got a be Jean-Fries and it gets its period.
I don't know dogs menstruated like that.
Yeah, if you get them fixed, they don't.
Yeah, dogs get their periods.
If you don't get them fixed, get their periods.
I'm not period shaming.
No, she put a napi on it.
Did she?
Did she put a napier on her.
Is your dog a new period tracking app?
I don't know if they've synced.
It's like great news.
You've synced.
So when you're on the blade, the dog's on the blade, get the nappy on.
Wait, would you sink up with your dog?
I don't know.
Who's got the alpha ovaries here?
No.
Is a dog's period, do they get a bit bitchy beforehand?
I don't know.
I just remember telling me like, yes, she gets a period.
I was like, I don't know what.
Okay, but if you get it neutered, it doesn't.
Dogs?
Because then you're not.
Jesus.
Dogs can be in heat for an average of 14 to 21 days.
Oh, God.
It's like bloody Fletch.
Excuse me.
I gested at Haley and you made the joke about me.
That's mean.
Oh, well then Haley makes a joke about me and it's the circle of life.
I'll get to it.
I'll find something more appropriate.
We're sort of doing period jokes here and it doesn't really sort of fit in with it.
Anyway, it's so funny.
I don't know.
I've gone so off.
Right.
So what, this dog's just sitting there.
So the dog's in the car.
Probably got its period.
This Bijon freezer is sitting in the car.
It's probably got its period.
It's hot.
It's weeping and everything.
I thought, you know, a life is a life.
I'm going to have to do something here.
It's smashed the window.
I'm looking around here.
I just fist through the window and get this period dog.
No.
Then I look forward to the front and I know it's a Tesla.
Oh, okay.
And on the screen is a little puppy animation.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've never seen this before.
Yeah, the dog.
What's the entertainment for the dog?
No, it's a little puppy animation.
It says, hi there.
My owner's coming back in five minutes.
Just don't, like, don't worry.
it's 20 degrees in here and I'm happy as.
And it was this little like...
What a great feature.
Feature.
Yeah, it's the away from car and the aircon stays on
but the car's locked and the dog can move without sitting off the alarm.
I was like, listen,
say what you will about Elon Musk, but that's a great feature.
That's a great feature.
Because I was, you're literally about to break in and save this menstruating dogs.
Just the message is in.
My Rottweiler's currently on her period.
Why?
It's a scary animal because it makes her bat shit crazy.
Yeah, I don't know if I'd want to deal with a Rottweiler on its period.
Just put that.
Just you leave the house.
And you're trying to cut off a little bit of dog roll and it's just looking at it.
You're like, and you can't give a chocolate because it'll kill it.
But we all know that's the great thing to heal a woman.
Yeah.
We have a bull mastiff.
She has to wear big undies with a pad and when she's on her period.
966.
966.
966.
Is your dog menstruate?
It is your dog on its period.
And what is it, dude?
Tampons, pads, naps, naps.
What's your choice of receptacle?
We have Tesler's for work.
We put dog mode on for our workmates
if they're sitting in the car
and we want to leave them in there
while we go to...
Funny, funny. Don't worry.
I am happy. The Aircon is on.

But they are standing by.
because I want to know what a date said to you while on the date that made you go, oh, okay.
Oh, okay, we're not going to do this.
Because there was a woman who was sharing the fact that she was on a date.
It was her first date back since having a baby.
And she was out and about and she was like, I'm back out.
I'm having a baby.
Not with the father of the baby.
Screw him.
That's done.
And she went on a date and they were talking and having, you know, tell us me about your kids.
stuff. And she said that at one and a half years old, the baby, she mentioned that she was
breastfeeding because she was like, I've got to go pump at one and a half years old.
And he just was like, ooh, yuck. That is so disgusting to still be breastfeeding your kid
at one and a half years old. One and a half years old was a very normal age, still be breastfeeding
your kid. If the kid was 10, maybe I'd be a bit like, who. Got a point there. Yeah.
Yeah.
So, and she was like, oh, it's interesting that you've got such a strong opinion on this.
What makes you think that?
And he just had this kind of like completely, what's the word, like,
not grounded in any kind of fact or knowledge or anything.
Ignorant, stupid opinion about breastfeeding.
And she was instantly like, this date was going so well.
Until then.
We had such great chemistry.
I really liked you.
And then you had to come and have an opinion about me breastfeeding my 18 months old.
toddler.
And she was like, that was it?
That was the clincher.
That was it?
Yeah.
So that's what got me thinking.
I was like, there's always one moment where they say one thing.
And then you can't move past it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you know what it was for me when I was out, bloody, prowling around?
Sproul on the prowling.
Yeah, sprow on the prowling.
Tickets on sale?
Haleysprow.com.
Yeah, you'd be on a date with them.
This is unique, I guess, but you'd be on a date with them, do it.
And then they'd just drop in halfway through, like, I'll listen to you every morning.
And you're like, wow, there you go.
Oh, it's nice that they're listening.
That's lovely.
What do you mean?
It's nice that they're listening.
No, no, no, not to me, just in general.
I think you're just there for a radio.
Did you give them a ZM bumper sticker?
No, no, no.
That on the car?
Oh, I think I might have lost us a couple of listeners.
Did you take their email for the mail out?
No.
No.
I didn't get them on ZM online.com or anything like that.
Oh, right.
No, no, no.
I said it was a bit weird.
Why, you just found it weird?
You were like, okay.
Yeah, right.
Did you take their guess for secret sound?
Right.
No, no, no.
No, no.
I said no.
Okay.
I don't know what the secret sound is when they ask you.
Did they know the fact of the day jingle?
Yeah, they knew it and they'd sing it the weirdest of times.
Okay.
So maybe it was, do you know, sometimes someone will just drop in something racist and you're
like, whoa.
Or sexist.
You're on a date with someone and they'll just drop something in and you're like,
oh, we don't say that anymore.
Yeah, oh, interesting.
That's such a wild opinion, dude.
Yeah.
So what is it that they said or did during the day?
Yeah, maybe it was something just really cringe.
You know, like they just did some kind of o' millennial thing, and you were like, oh, God.
You got that ick immediately.
Yeah.
This cannot continue.
God.
We want to know, you're on a date.
Yep.
It was all going nicely.
Yeah, until they say one thing that makes you go, okay.
No, no, this isn't it.
Wow, some great stories coming through.
Some that we can't say on here, either.
Georgia, what happened?
Hold on anything.
How you going?
Yeah, really good, Georgia.
Good, good.
I was on a date with a guy, and I can't remember.
exactly how I went down, but I made a joke about flat earthers, and, uh, yeah, it turns out
he's also a flat earth, and he believes the earth is flat.
Oh my God, really?
It's good to know these things early.
It must be, it must be cool, it must be nice to actually meet one of them.
Yeah, and be like, yeah, it was, I just questioned him.
I was like, so excited to me.
I wanted to know, like, why he thought that, but I don't remember exactly what he said,
but obviously science, I believe, over him, and I didn't date him again on.
unfortunately.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Better now on the first date than in your wedding vows.
You're like, I'll love you as long as the earth spins.
And he's like, ha.
Yeah.
What?
It's too late.
Pay for the wedding.
Georgia, thank you.
Tracy, what did somebody say on a date that put you off immediately?
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
So I went on a first date with a guy that my friend had set me up with.
Yep.
And we'd ordered dinner.
And we were having a chat.
He was really nice.
and he's kind of looking at me weird, and I was like, you're all good.
And he said, would you consider dyeing your hair blonde?
Because I'd do you if you were a blonde.
The one thing stopping him doing you was the color of your hair.
Doing you? Doing you?
Doing you?
Wow.
Okay.
Are you going to pay for that, mate?
Because that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars, isn't it, Tracey?
I ended up leaving the table and was like, oh, I just need the bathroom.
And I asked the waiter to pack up my dinner because it hadn't even arrived yet.
and I just left,
lessed a little.
Oh, nice.
We took the food.
We took the food.
Love that move, Tracy.
That's so funny.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Vanessa,
what did somebody say on a date that made you go, no, no.
Oh, hey guys.
Morning.
I had such a great date.
Sitting down at a table and chatting about our future,
what are the three things that you really want in a partner?
And you go, well, what do you want?
Oh, you know, I'm looking for long-term loyalty, commitment.
You know, someone who's, you know,
someone who's ambitious.
And he said, well, do you eat chili?
And I said, what?
Well, really, I'm not talking about dry chili.
I'm talking about fresh chili.
And I said, are you serious?
Is that one of your top three things?
And he said, yeah, yeah.
I grow my own chili, so it's very important that someone to eat a hot soup.
To be honest, great question.
He didn't care about loyalty or any of that.
Just wanted to know if you could handle a hot jalapeno.
You can handle chili you were in.
Right.
So when did you marry him?
Oh, look, we didn't even make it to the second wife.
Yeah, okay.
Everybody's dying to know, though.
Vanessa, do you eat chili?
Do you eat chili?
I do, but I didn't tell him that.
Because it's actually none of it.
Weird.
You had it all at your doorstep.
So good, Vanessa, thank you.
Oh, I love that so much.
I went on a date with the guy who told me if I don't go home with them.
I have to pay him back for the burger he purchased.
Oh. Yeah, that's, I don't think a burger is tantamount to sex.
So you're saying that I cost $18.50.
So you're telling me that I'm worth a couple of smash patties.
Yeah.
You can smash my patties.
A day one said to me, I don't think women should talk about political stuff.
What?
It's good to know now.
Yeah, I know.
He clicked his fingers at the weight stuff.
No, he didn't.
That was dumb.
Clicked.
Oh
Her and her friends used to play a game called
Shitty Handbag
You'd shit in a handbag
Leave it on someone's doorstep
Ring the doorbell and run away
And watch from the bushes
They'd just say things didn't last long
After that story was told
What a wild movie
Why would they
Because they're gonna
No one just chucks their hand in the handbag
Without looking
They're gonna look and see the blue
Very confusing time
How odd
So I was at a singles night
And was chatting to this guy
Wasn't that interested in
but was just trying to be polite.
You know, we're just sales night.
He was asking all these questions
and asked if I liked fantasy or superhero movies.
I was like, sure, you know, I love a bit of Spider-Man,
Harry Potter, what about you?
And he goes, no, I prefer movies that align with my career.
He was in finance or something.
So what, Wolf of Wall Street?
Escape shortly afterwards.
All the movies about finance that are really bad?
Yeah, the show money ball.
What horrible industry it is?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right.
Do you think he asked that question to say the sentence,
I watch movies that align with my career.
Maybe.
I think it did.
I am a musician.
I went on a date with a guy that also studied music
and he said, I don't really like music.
And I was like, who, for a start?
Why just like music?
And secondly, we are studying the music.
Yeah.
I went on a date with a farmer
and when referring to the dating pool,
he said there's a few hefers out where I live.
In a body shaming fashion.
That's just rural humor, Haley.
Right.
You wouldn't get it.
No, so it's not fat shaming.
It's just, yeah.
No, no, no, no, no.
One time a guy said it was okay, I didn't know X, Y, Z,
because I had a smaller female brain,
so there wasn't room for everything.
It was fully serious when he said it too.
Wow.
He said something to the effective,
I just don't need to have it rubbed in my face out in public,
about gay men.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
Oh, you can do it just behind clothes doors.
It's fine.
Do what you want, but don't need to cover it either.
I dated someone who at one stage asked me,
have you ever thought about going to the gym to get your revenge body?
And I somewhat baffled said, no.
And he said, well, there's still time.
Oh, wow.
He also thought feminism.
He also thought feminism was a scam.
It's just trying to take your money online.
He asked me if I'd come and pick him up for our date.
He didn't like it.
Yeah.
Oh, but that's nice.
I got a nicer car than you.
You might have a nicer car.
Yeah.
It's paydos at the end of the week.
I can't afford petrol.
Yeah, true.
I met a guy for a day,
and the first thing he did was brush his hand across my breast
and say, oh, I'm going to enjoy this.
Compliments.
I'm going to enjoy this.
Went on a date with a guy who asked me if I knew what an IQ test was.
Didn't wait for me to answer.
Proceded to mansplain an IQ test
and then brag that his IQ was higher than Einstein's.
Oh, my God.
That is the worst.
Oh, God.
I'm not Armstrong.
So it brings it up just so that he can tell you that he's smarter than Einstein.
Yeah.
I make a peach salsa that's a crowd pleaser.
Now, for a start, I'm in either recipe and I want some peach salsa.
Yeah, 966966.
96-101.
I would enjoy this.
I would enjoy your peach salsa.
I'd rub my hand across her peach salsa and say, I'm going to enjoy this.
I made it especially for the date.
He took one mouthful and said if people actually told you this is good.
Yes, they have.
Get out.
You need that peach salsa.
recipe?
It was all going well until we talked about my hyphenated last name and the part that I didn't use.
It's a really unique name.
And his face dropped and said, oh man, I used to babysit you.
That's pretty funny.
I was dating a guy.
I was going really well.
He took me to a fancy work dinner and not to show off, but I did a great job at mingling and chatting to his colleagues.
When we got home that night, he said, gosh, you were great tonight.
You're so versatile.
I can take you anywhere.
My instant thought was versatile.
What am I?
garage.
That was the moment for me.
I knew we weren't going to work.
Wow.
I thought it's a nice compliment.
You did well.
And he was just describing you as a verse.
There's so many.
This is so great.
So many funny ones.
He would mansplain words that didn't mean mansplaining such as affidavit,
even though we were both working in judicial systems.
He told me he found out his ex-girlfriend was a prostitute months into the relationship,
wasn't over it and was worried photos of them would become public.
This was all on the first date.
Wow.
All on the first date.
I went on a first date with someone who casually shared
he had multiple children with multiple women
he had been to prison for technically kidnapping someone
and would disown the children if they were gay.
Some red flags.
Some red flags. Some.
He went on some wild rant about how he didn't believe
women should be paid the same as men.
Then I went on another story about ancient Egypt
and for the next 2,000 years,
women should be paid more
only then immediately follow up with how hilarious it was
that his ex-wife didn't know she was going to be entitled
to half the proceeds of their house because of some
technicality, he'd get three quarters.
And yes,
18, we haven't really had any messages in about women's
behaviour on the first day. We had the shooting in the handbag.
Or shooting on the handbag. There was one
message about a woman.
Hundreds. Yeah, out of hundreds.
And guys wonder why they're still single.
Hmm.
They're like, man.

Barney
The Dinosaur
Today in Kids TV shows, we're looking at Barney the dinosaur.
So, few aspects to Barney.
Originally supposed to be a bear, don't you know?
Okay.
But creator Cheryl Leach took her son Patrick to a dinosaur exhibition,
and he was just, like, obsessed with dinosaurs.
And when Barney came out, it was a bit of a...
Everyone was a little bit dinosaur mad.
Yeah.
We were learning a lot about dinosaurs.
We had the dinosaurs TV show.
Oh, they were the best.
Jurassic Park was on the horrors.
You know, like dinosaurs were a little bit.
When did Barney come out?
Early 90s.
Okay.
Yeah.
So a man called David Joyner who played Barney from 1991 to 2001.
He now owns, and at the same time that he was Barney.
He was, he also owned a tantric massage practice.
Oh.
A little of a sensual, sensual message.
Yep.
You go to him.
He has around 30.
clients, he's a spiritual healer, charges $350 to a session to release energy and balance their
chakras in a tantric sex.
So he still does it.
Yeah, he still does it now.
But he's not Barney anymore.
Right.
Right.
He's not Barney.
He said the hardest part about being Barney was dragging around the 70-pound Barney costume,
which could reach up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit inside.
Yeah.
So like 40-something degrees Celsius.
But he said, in those times, he, in those times,
times when he's really struggling with the costume.
Thought of the kids.
No.
Thankfully, he wouldn't think of the kids.
Oh, no, I've got the wrong direction.
He'd lead on his tantric training.
Oh, really?
And he's in a deep meditative state and still be able to do all the movements.
And also, he didn't do the voice for Barney.
Oh, okay.
The voice was provided by Bob West, who still works on all sorts of, he's a set designer.
Oh, yeah.
And he just happened to be around designing the Barney set.
And he did a voice, and they were like, that's the perfect voice for Doug.
for Barney. So did they do it simultaneously? Like he was doing the move and he was doing the voice at the same time.
And he would be moving the mouth. I think the mouth was controlled by remote control.
Yeah. And so he'd be doing the voice and he could open the mouth. When the KKK discovered,
sorry? Could jump here. When the KKK discovered that the man inside the Barney suit was black,
they published an article banning their children from watching the show. Oh my goodness.
Famous said the KKK. The KKK didn't like it. Yeah, yeah.
He said...
A hot take on the world?
It's very interesting.
If someone's trying to represent hate,
the last thing they want is love,
and if my skin color changes the opinion for somebody,
I can't do anything about that.
The dinosaur's purple.
The dinosaur is purple because purple was a gender neutral
and relaxing color.
I thought it was a lesbian color.
Also very lesbian color.
Barney's 200 million years old,
according to Barney's birthday.
An episode called Barney's birthday.
They celebrate his 200 millionth birthday.
And the final part of this is Patrick Leach.
You'll remember he was the one
who said to his mum, I like dinosaurs now.
Yes.
Not bears, don't make him a bear, make him a dinosaur.
In 2013, he was charged with attempted murder of his 49-year-old neighbor
when he shot him in the chest with a 45-caliber handgun.
Okay, great.
So here we go.
So he's in prison.
He's in prison, yeah, yeah, still in prison.
Is he heir to the fortune?
His heir to the Barney Fortune?
Is he ever going to get out of prison?
Yeah, he's sent us to 15 years in prison.
So he's going to get out to a fat load of money?
Fat light of Barney cash.
So to recap, a woman created a singing bear
that became a purple dinosaur to entertain her toddler son
who grew up to shoot his neighbor and got a prison for 15 years
and the man inside the dinosaur suit was a tantric sex therapist at the KKK band.

Fired loser.
No, there's a restructure.
He's given that bank the best 20 years of his life.
And the bank's restructuring.
Just undermining all of his hard work.
He's having to reapply for his job.
Well, reapply faster because I'm sick of you being around in the mornings.

Tell him to get his hand off your thigh.
Yuck!
You can safely drive.
Yuck!
It's an automatic.
He doesn't need both hands to drive.
Oh yeah, but he can't.
Maybe Mark doesn't know how to drive manual.
Well, Mark grew up
without a father to teach him and his mum was busy.
And it shows.
And it shows.
Why would you say that to Mark?
He's in a similar situation to you.
When's your father going to step and teach you to drive?
Well, soon I'm going to move in with him.
So.
Yeah.
If I could have my phone back, if I get my phone back, I'd text them.
Where are you going to sleep on the couch?

He mouthed it.
Tell him he's not allowed to play.
Mark, you're not allowed to play.
Even if you're silently playing with your mouth.
Yuck, shut your mouth and drive.
Mark also said, I'm his beautiful girl.
And he doesn't need any more than one beautiful girl.
Oh, Mark, you're so gross.
Mark's got rank breath.
Yeah.
And he always has bits in his teeth.
He's from breakfast.
Mark's got tight teeth and he eats granola in the morning.
Mark has been told that he says,
granola in the morning.
He needs to watch his cholesterol and granola
is good for his cholesterol.
Okay, next year, Mom.

Early 90s, mid-90s.

He's got very tight teeth.
Yeah, they're really tight.
I've actually told him he doesn't have.
He goes to a hygiene as twice a year.
Someone said who the F is Mark.

Yeah.
If you're serious, though,
Mark can drive us to White Cross right now.
No, I'm happy to pay that.
I wasn't serious.
Okay, so we're 2010s.
Oh, Mark's moving his shoulders along to the music.
He loves Ariana Grande.

Shut up.

And it's going to stink real bad soon.
Blame Mark.
Oh, poor.
That wasn't Mark Farned.
I know what Marks smell like.
That wasn't a hard.
Oh, yuck.
That smell like fruit roll-ups.
Someone reckons pack in a hog, though.
Oh, Mark's got a hog.
You know, you know, Mum's drinking a mega hog.
Mom wouldn't be with someone that didn't have a hole.
No, no, no.
No, no.
Mom's, I'm not.
He's awful, but he's rocking a hog.
Not saying mum's a size queen, but I'm.
People think Mark has like little white in the corners of his mouth.
He does.
He does.
Which is crazy because he doesn't really brush his teeth a lot.
He does brush his teeth.
Three times a day it's flossing he can't do because his teeth are packed too tight.

Because he's a bitch.
Excuse me?
Nothing.
Excuse me?
Nothing.

He didn't fart.
It smelled like fruit roll-ups.
It was not mine.
He doesn't let eat those because he was dieting.
He can't eat anything that's going to get stuck in between that he can't get out because he can't floss.
He bought one of those water flosses from chemist warehouse.
Show sponsor.
That's great.
But his gums bleat.
Really badly.
Play ZM's flesh, for him and haley.
So I want to know why you had to leave a service provider, hairdresser, your doctor, your therapist.
Jim.
Your gym, yeah, why you just went, I'm actually leaving you.
$160 an hour this person was paying.
They were obviously like a little bit like that's too much.
What were they paying for?
A therapist.
A therapist, sorry, yes, a therapist, therapist.
They just found that their therapist,
when they were describing their life as a man
who sleeps with other men, homosexual.
that there was...
Thank you for explaining that.
So what that is, and it's normal.
And it's okay.
Here on our show, we wouldn't have a problem with it.
This therapist just had like an air of judgment
about the frivolous...
Frequency.
Share volume.
Yeah.
Of things.
And it didn't outwardly say it, but the therapist, the therapist, the therapist, the
therapist, the therapist.
Could tell there was judgment.
It could tell there was judgment.
Okay.
And it was like, I think you're very well studied.
I think that you,
know your staff and I'm sure you can help me
but I just can't with the judgment
and so had to break up with their therapist
they didn't outwardly say it's like because I think you're
a homophobe but they did
have to make their excuses
to leave and go see another therapist with
the you know I don't think this is a very good fit
situation but it's so awkward
when you have to leave someone and you're like
I don't like the job you do
for me I remember talking to
Dr Shawnee about this because I
had to leave when my doctor kind of
started semi-retiring
I was like, well, this is a great chance
just to move to one closer to my house.
Get a fresher, yeah.
And I was so stressed about it.
I was like, he's going to think about me, like, not turning up.
Like, you know.
You don't.
And this is what Dr. Shawnee said.
He's like, we don't care.
We don't care.
And I was like, oh, they don't care.
They do care about you when you're going, but, you know, like, they're not losing sleep.
Yeah, they're not like, oh.
They've still got a million patients coming in.
He's got another doctor.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, what did I do to fledge?
Where is he? I miss him.
Yeah, they probably don't even give you a second thought to be honest.
They literally could not care less.
No.
But I guess it would be different if it was like a personal trainer.
I reckon that would be hard to break up with.
Have you had to break up with your trainer?
No, I haven't.
Sorry, I'm just reading a text that just came in.
No, I didn't break up my trainer.
My trainer became an air hostess.
So she left you.
So she left me.
Okay.
I left my doctor but just by changing doctors.
Yeah.
And I didn't email.
But I didn't like that.
them. That's why I left.
Yeah.
Because I felt like they didn't care about me, which is ironically, they don't.
No, they do care.
It's like, I'm just saying that they don't care if you choose another dog.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Exactly.
Oh, there's some good ones coming in.
Okay, well, this is what we want to know.
Oh, 800, Darns at M is our number.
Our teleops are standing by.
Yes, they are.
Our teleops is Shannon and Carwin.
96 to text in.
Now we want to know why and how you broke up with your service provider,
be it your massousse or your hairdress or,
or your doctor.
It's hard.
Yeah, it is very hard to do.
And someone had to break up their therapist
because they thought
they might be a homophobe.
And as a homosexual,
it was not a good fit.
Yeah, not a good fit.
Nicole, why did you have to break up
with your professional?
So I broke up with my vet
because he was terrified of my dog.
Oh, you bet was afraid of your dog.
Yeah, which is like,
it's like if you're in that profession,
that's not something that you should be scared of.
Yeah, and you do all that study,
and then you become a vet and you don't like dogs?
No, no, just that one.
Just Nicole's dog.
What kind of dog did you have?
Well, he was a 65KG rot wheeler.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know if I'd go near that either, Nicole, to be honest.
You're a 65KG rotwile needs its temperature taken,
and of course I've got to shove something of its ass now.
He was a teddy bear.
He was so lovely.
To you.
Everyone's a teddy bear.
One woman's teddy bear is another man's grizzly, dear.
Yeah, and also everyone's a teddy bear until you have to have a thermometer in your back door.
That is true.
That is true.
Hey, by the way, I love you guys.
I love you guys.
I love this thing to you.
Thank you so much for making me my drive funny and amazing.
Oh, Nicole, stop it.
You're going to make us cry.
Don't stop.
I love her, but that's so nice.
Haley loves attention.
I do.
Nicole, thank you so much.
Drive safe.
Thank you.
Okay, Pat the big pat the rot while for us.
she said was.
Was.
I don't think of the dogs.
Oh, I'm sorry, Nicole.
Nicole.
Yeah, he passed away at five and a half.
He got bone cancer.
Why'd you have to bring that up, Fleck?
I'm sorry for bringing that up, Nicole.
Did you get a new dog, Nicole?
You got another one?
Sorry?
Did you get another dog?
Yes, we do.
Yeah, we got a girl Roddy.
And she's, um, her name is Luna.
Last name, Tick, because she's a lunatic.
Lunatic.
And I bet that vet still wouldn't touch that dog either.
I just find these mad dogs.
I was my partner.
He likes them.
I love that.
Nicole, thank you so much.
We've got to Anonymous.
Anonymous.
I've accidentally hung up on because of my fat fingers.
Immediately cut Anonymous off.
Yeah, we'll see if we can get Anonymous back.
I apologize.
Well, they're anonymous.
They're not going to be to look them up by name.
Teleops will have to deal with that.
That's pretty...
Oh, calling producer car when a producer Shannon out Tallyops.
When I left my GP and went to one of...
Sorry, I left my GP after I went to an appointment.
I walked in.
He was casually vaping.
As he took a drag from the vapes, he said, you're due a smear.
Hey.
It was a hard note.
What the hell?
UGP found later that night.
Crazy.
Anonymous joins us.
Anonymous.
You broke up with your...
Yeah, I'm sorry, this is my fat fingers.
He's got the...
You should see these fingers.
Fairness Anonymous, the button for the telephone is very tiny.
Look at that tiny button.
And it's next to the other button.
It's not.
Twice the size of your nipples.
This guy's not used to little buttons.
Twice the size of your nipples and you found.
you find they met every opportunity, perfect.
So Anonymous, you are a beauty therapist.
Yes.
So do you break up with clients and sort of a switch of role reversal?
Yeah, if I just don't vibe with them or they're a little bit of a punish,
then I sort of say to them, oh, you know, this therapist might be a better fit for you.
Or I'm quite close with reception.
So I'll go out to reception and say, hey, please let's try and get them somewhere else.
You're like, Hayley's channel is a bit hairy this way.
much for me.
Yeah, great.
She looks parkia, but the hair is given something ethnic.
Yeah, so reception's like, oh, she's really booked up for ages, but I can get you on
with this person.
Oh, that's nice.
Yeah, okay, roll reversal there.
I believe I've been told that before.
I'm sure I have.
Oh, Alex is a bit booked up.
Yeah, yeah.
And you keep calling every week.
It's still booked up.
It's Alex free?
She is packed to the rafters, mate, but we've got Jonathan for you.
Yeah.
Anonymous, thank you, some messages.
I doubt my midwife when she didn't support my decision to try to not have a natural birth
if the baby was breached.
Previous baby was breached and needed emergency C-section.
She made me feel like I was just been lazy if you're not going to push.
Push the what, the feet out first?
Yeah, go feed out first.
Flemishing out of the anchor, really, isn't it?
Famously not, right?
I left my doctor because he was a bit too young and a bit too hot to be doing my smiris.
Smerries.
Oh, okay.
Smuggies.
Smes.
My little smesies.
Smazis.
Smazis date.
Don't forget to book your smearzies.
And book your smear today.
I broke up with my cleaner because she was doing a shit job.
I told her that my husband got made redundant.
He actually did, but when he got another job.
We just got a different cleaner.
Oh, that sucks.
Yeah.
I left my doctor at student health because she called me over summer break
and told me she was excited to be working with a patient like me again this year.
What?
Like me?
It made me feel like my mental health was some sort of collaboration.
We ain't co-lapped, babe.
And I left crying after she doubled my medication dose on the first appointment.
Oh, yeah, no, I can.
That's not a good fit.
Had to break up with my therapist.
She was nice, but just got an odd feeling from her.
Fast forward to me changing and she chased me like a jealous X.
Non-stop messages and calls even after I told her I'd started seeing a new therapist.
Oh, no.
Oh, dear.
I stopped going to see my physio who have been seeing for two years.
One day I stopped and really, she just knew way too much about my personal life, so I needed to...
Oh, yeah.
Just a clean slate.
Yeah.
I'm a new woman.
I was out of my mum.
mind when we met.
And then go to the new one and just lie about your life so they know nothing about you.
I do a lot of charity stuff in my downtime but I don't really drink a lot.
I get a fresh doctor so they can do that.
How many drinks are you having?
I don't.
Sorry, I'm going to have some water.
They're like really because your skin doesn't say that?
Yeah, your liver is inflamed.
I broke up with my personal trainer after we hooked up.
It'll do it.
Because I found out he was married and we kind of hooked up.
The trouble is they're all so hot though, aren't they?
They are, they're so nice.
And when you're like, I don't know how to do this one.
I left my local Pilates because the studio owner decided to start taking the classes after the proper instructor left and they were so boring.
And she thought she was amazing.
And when she lost all her clients, she sent us in all an email begging for us to come back.
Oh.
Oh.
I broke my foot.
This is a long one and it hasn't had a pre-read.
I broke my foot and I had to do physio afterwards.
It didn't pay for the service.
It was covered by ACC.
However, I am a solo mom to a child with a disability and I also work in a job where I'm on my feet.
feet all day so my recovery was taking a little longer
because I didn't have the downtime in terms of
rest and recovery. Anyway, so I'd go into the physio.
In the second session, she told me that maybe I
just needed to tell myself
that it's fine and walk on my foot and it was no longer
sore. Oh, that's not how it works.
I honestly not true. I know someone that got told by the
physiotherapist if they weren't taking this seriously
that they could find themselves another physio.
Yeah, but no one does the exercise.
My first... Dude, just roll your
wrist around and put a tennis sport.
It's like no one's doing it. You're going to hold that against a
door frame
and just slightly
twist like
No, I'm not, man
no one's doing that
Hey,
how bored I am?

Briden, was friend zoned...
Brighton?
Yeah, Bryden says,
was friend zoned the whole way through high school with this chick?
Went our separate ways after school.
Caught up for a drink about two years later.
Was still friend zoned.
Then about six months after a regular catch-ups,
Friend Zone was broken and we're now happily married
I've been together for just over 12 years
and three beautiful children.
Oh wow.
We can work our way out of the Friends Zone.
Broke through the Zone.

Jess, my wife and I went on a few dates and really hit it off,
but she wasn't ready for a relationship,
but still wanted to be friends.
She invited me to her 21st, but I knew I was catching the field,
so I just decided not to go.
We always kind of kept tabs on each other.
then two years-ish after our first date we started talking again, then dating.
After four months we were engaged, we have a son and we've just celebrated seven years together.
Okay.
That's cute.
Jess, probably have actually, but didn't know because I'm an oblivious girlie.
But to be honest, I didn't even know when my partner liked me, according to him.
I'm just oblivious AF to everything.
Text in, I friends own a girl, 12 years later, married her best friend, Loll.
Loll?
Is that funny?
I love that.
Well, she missed out, didn't she?
She had a chance.

then went back to him and we've been together for three years.
Oh, that's nice.

Ten things that one just said.
And so I, you know, I tolerate a bit of other sort of aggressive driving.
And so I'm like, I know, man.
I want to get there too.
Do unto others.
Yesterday, I was driving along.
It's the back of, if you know it in Auckland, it's back of Westgate.
It's very like, it's a big sort of industrial, really getting built up area.
And it used to be 80Ks, but it's 50 now.
All right?
We've got to go 50.
And this is like heading towards peak hour traffic.
Busy.
I went to the supermarket at 5pm.
Oh, that's mad?
I know, like a crazy.
woman. And so we're driving along and there's this one moment where it splits into two lanes for just a
short amount of time it goes back into one. There's like no purpose for it. And I'm in the left
lane because I'm happy with the speed I am a travelling at. And I just hear this truck like
fanging past me. But it was coming up but the lane like the lane had gone back into one.
Oh yeah. And they did that thing where even though the lane had gone back into one they like absolutely
just swept me
to get in front of me
and to the point where I had to swerve
off road.
Oh goodness.
I swirved off road.
I could have died.
It'd been horrendous.
Not at my goal weight yet.
Anyway.
Wait, so when you die
you want to be at the goal weight?
Like, so everyone's like, oh my God,
hot.
In the coffin.
Yeah, in the coffin.
Yeah, in the coffin.
Yeah, right, okay.
Yeah.
How do you just ask them to take a bit off?

Just bulldog clips.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Just hack a bit off and then put a bit off.
nice top on.
Chuck on a nice frock.
Keep it all in.
So, yeah, she like drove me off the road to overtake me on a single lane.
She?
She, thank you.
Driving a truck.
Driving a truck.
A woman in a truck like this.
And I was like, what the?
So I like pull back in so I'm right behind her.
And she is nose to tail with the car in front.
So she's now tailgating them, who's driving at least 55.
We're all going a little bit fast.
they wanted to fang.
So I do this, a little flick like that.
Yeah.
That gesture there and I flick my lights at it would be like,
you calm down.
You calm down.
And I was like, she's just having a real,
she's having a rough driver.
She was tail gun and real look.
And I'll say she looked, I'll say she looks skanky.
She's greasy hair.
And she just had a bad attitude on her face.
And it looked like she didn't wash her face.
And she looked skanky.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
I judged her.
What do you think she thought about you?
Probably just like get out of my effing way.
Yeah.
Typical hot.
Yeah, you typical Mazda driving, hot mid-twenties woman.
And I would have been like, yeah.
No wonder you hate me.
Anyway, I thought that was it.
And I was like, okay, well, that's just the worst of the driving.
And then we're coming up to this big roundabout,
and we're all kind of heading left.
And the lanes are still too,
but she was tucking so far to the left
that the cyclist, who was coming up on the left,
as they should, couldn't get through.
Like that's how close to the curb she was.
Couldn't get through.
So he went past me, I made a bit of room
because I respect and love cyclists.
Really painted myself as the golden child in this story.
Came up on the left there
and then was trying to get past her.
Couldn't.
So he sort of was like gesturing like this.
Like I'm trying to go left like this.
And she just went and kind of swerved in front of him.
What?
And he went wibble, wibble, wobble, wobble, wobble.
He did the cyclist wobble.
Yeah, he nearly fell off the bike.
I was like, this is just getting insane.
saying this one was trying to kill this man now.
Is it like a logo for her trucking company?
I took a photo of her number plate.
Just, I guess so she could see I was taking a photo of her number plate.
Just to be like, well, maybe I'll calm down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What does he deliberately trying to knock a cyclist off?
Knock it off.
And so then he was like, oh, got his footing.
And so I sort of stopped to let him find his way.
And then he went around the other side and was like,
ah, yelling at each other.
And she just flipped the bird and honed off.
it was just like we just need to calm down
We always need to yeah
Respect each other on the road
I'm like do you know that you need to get where you're going
But do you want to kill me
And the cyclist
Yes
In the process
Yes
I think her answer was yes
I think her answer was yes
Yeah
Oh I just realised I did the whole show
With my headphones on backwards
So
Well that means the show's backwards then isn't it
We're going to have to play this in reverse
Well should we speak in reverse
And hopefully they'll
work out the other way.
