The Fleshpawn and Hayley Big Pod.
Enjoy a refreshing McCafe iced coffee available only from Macca's.
Great things are brewing.
Good morning, welcome to the show Fleshpawn and Hayley, three minutes past six.
Happy Auckland, Northland anniversary?
A lot of the, I think from like...
Actually don't celebrate.
You don't celebrate, you don't partake.
Hence you're at work today
I think most of the
Upper North Island
Nelson as well
that's right
yes of course
with an anniversary
day today
so yeah
there'll be a lot of
people right now
sleeping in
the roads will be quiet
for those up
you're welcome
that we also got up
despite the fact
that we live in
well you just wanted
a day in low
and time and a half
didn't you
yeah I'm getting extra
I'm getting extra
all these words I'm saying
are costing a little bit more than usual.
La la la la la la.
More expensive than my la la la tomorrow.
You've got to say less words because then you're actually getting more money per word.
Okay.
Silencing a woman.
Back to you, Shrech.
Yeah, wow.
Three minutes on here.
Three minutes in.
Didn't take long today, did it?
Yeah, normally it takes a little bit longer.
I'll just do this the rest of the time.
I'll get a gutsful.
I spent all weekend with her.
I'll do what mums do.
I know where my opinion's not wanted.
Fine.
I'll just sit here and be quiet.
Fine.
We probably should later in the show talk about the Airbnb antics of the weekend.
I thought it all went very under control.
It's fine.
Who was the Airbnb under?
Shardé.
Shardé.
She's a super host.
Is she?
Maybe not for long after that stay.
She'll be a terrible guest, super host.
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Terrible guest.
The top six on the way, $17 million was won.
One can tab.
Yeah, not by any of us.
Mentally on the drive home from Tauranga yesterday, though, we spent it, one can tab. Yeah, not by any of us. Mentally on the drive home
from Tauranga yesterday though,
we spent it,
me and Aaron.
Did you?
What would you do?
This, this, this.
Yeah.
Well, it wasn't to be.
No.
You don't have,
are we talking about
what you found?
Where did I find?
Oh, on Friday
at the Pairoa Antique Store.
Oh! We haven't got that in the show.
We should make room for that.
We should really make room for that.
We'll make room for that.
We'll do a shuffle. Stay tuned.
Probably later in the show.
Because it's pretty exciting.
It's pretty good, isn't it?
I do soon have the top six signs.
Your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million.
Also joining us on the show today, Guy Williams around 7.30.
He's got another season of his show back on telly.
Is it today?
Yeah.
Such a good show.
Man, it's such good watching.
Yeah, he's in 7.30.
Next on the show, though, we have heard from the English Breakfast Society.
Have we?
Which apparently I didn't know was a thing, but they are in charge of breakfasts.
Okay, good.
They are the spokespeople of breakfast.
We love breakfast.
Breakfast is what we do.
Darlings.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
I didn't even know this was a thing. The English Breakfast Society.
Fantastic.
Now, they are dedicated to the history, heritage and culture of the English breakfast.
The full English.
The full English.
Which you can order here at any cafe, really.
The big English.
Well, they say big breakfast is just that.
Yeah.
What do you think is in a full English?
I'll go to my friend Vaughan, who I know loves a full English.
Egg.
Yeah.
A hash. More than egg. I reckon there's more than egg. No, there I know loves a full English. Egg? Yeah. A hash?
More than egg.
I reckon there's more than egg.
No, there's got to be a black pudding, doesn't there?
Black pudding.
For it to be a traditional full English, I think it has to be.
That will be the difference between a big breakfast and an English.
And a full English.
Because I think the black pudding's not in it.
You're going to have beans?
You've got to have some sort of beans.
Toast, tomato.
In New Zealand, we leave out the beans, right?
No. We like the beans in a big breakfast, we leave out the beans, right? No.
We leave out the beans in a big breakfast.
We leave out the black pud.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So the common full English breakfast,
back bacon, eggs, British sausage,
baked beans, bubble and squeak,
fried tomato, fried mushrooms,
black pudding, and then bread on the side.
Mushrooms.
I think I'm going to have mushrooms for lunch.
And this story comes from The Guardian.
The Society of Breakfast
have urged people to
add pineapple to their breakfast and
eat like a 17th century
lord, swapping it out
for the tomato
and also mushrooms, which
I'd like the mushrooms.
A 17th century lord?
I can never get this right
But does that mean the 1600s?
In the 1600s, yeah
Where were they getting pineapple from in the 1600s?
So apparently it was all wealthy people
And I'm thinking when they were plundering the Caribbean
They were maybe bringing back boatloads of pineapple
That would have gone so soft on the way home
Because you get a pineapple
And you put it in the veggie drawer, don't you?
And you're like, I'll get back to you and you just don't.
It's so sweet when it gets that soft.
It's like too sweet.
Like you're licking a bloody Raro packet.
Apparently King Charles II loved it.
Liked his pineapple.
Loved it.
And they reckon you should like cut it and then kind of lightly fry.
Yeah, I love a fried pineapple.
Like char-grilled.
Like when you make a ham steak
and then you char-grill the pineapple as well.
Because I like pineapple in the savoury.
If it's on a pizza, I'll eat it.
I don't order a Hawaiian pizza,
but when it's on a pizza,
I'm always like, it rules.
Like pineapple in a toasty with cheese.
Holds a lot of heat in a toasty.
It's a bit like your tomato junior.
Tomato in a toasty. They're just both your tomato junior. Tomatoes in a toast.
They're just both quite wet fruits.
Very divisive though.
Acidic.
You're right.
Yeah.
Cuts through maybe some of the fats and stuff with the acid and the sweet.
I don't know about it with like beans in that though.
Yeah, no.
Egg.
Egg?
No, but even egg is off.
Sausage.
With cheese and ham.
Yes. With cheap cheese and pineapple. Well, that's why people love it on a on a pizza yeah don't they um producer jared you've got um something to add to this are you
a pineapple fan i'm a big pineapple fan um but one of my ex-girlfriends it was a big part of
why they're now my ex-girlfriend okay um do we hate her she Nah, nah, nah. We don't hate her. Did she cheat on you with a pineapple?
One of the Dole family.
Oh my God, who could blame her?
Rich.
No, her family used to have crushed pineapple on their spaghetti bolognese.
Sorry.
Sorry.
As a garnish or cooked with it?
No, as a garnish on top.
Oh no, no, no, no.
Well off. Well off, yeah. They also Oh, no, no, no, no. Well off.
Well off, yeah.
They also called it spag-bog, so.
Oh, we're a spag-bog family.
I don't like that.
No, it's spag-bol.
I know it's spag-bol and I'm embarrassed,
but we grew up as spag-bog and I'm trying to shake it off.
I'm trying to shake it off.
I think my parents thought that was a big play for us.
I thought you were better than that.
I thought I was better than that and I am better than that
and I'm sorry.
I shall overcome this.
Mediterranean spaghetti bolognese is what it's called
when you put pineapple on it.
I've just done a quick Google.
Right.
But, yeah, I mean, it's technically,
you're basically in pizza territory there,
the tomato, the cheese.
Yeah.
Well, I, because I made, I did tacos on Thursday for my friends,
and that was a sort of a rich dish,
and I made a pineapple salsa.
Pineapple salsa.
With kebab.
That's allowed.
On chicken.
I know, but why is it different?
On chicken.
Because you've got the other,
you've got,
I'm imagining you had some.
I had a lot of coriander.
Yeah, coriander.
That's nice.
I had a lot of jalapenos.
Yeah, that's how you say it.
I had a lot of jalapenos.
But a spice with the sweetness of the pineapple.
I'm confused by this pineapple.
Well, it's all delicious stuff, really.
Yeah, I know.
14 past six.
Next on the show, a woman.
You know the moment when you buy something new
and you get to peel off that protective thing and you love it?
Well, she thought she'd film herself doing this,
and thank God she did because it backfired royally.
It's next, Jack Harlow, ZM.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
There is nothing I love more.
I've done this a bit recently,
being fresh at the sort of tail end of a renovation,
is getting a new appliance and peeling off.
Oh, I love it.
Remember we got to do it with the new distros.
That was us.
We got to peel that.
It worked.
Yeah.
It's so good.
No one else.
Not Hauraki.
Not Hitz. Not Coast.
Sometimes I'm at a store and the FPOS machine has the cover on it on the screen and I'm
just like, I can just peel this off. They like those to be
left on so they get more life out of their
screens. Nah, sometimes when they're
not looking I'll peel them off.
Gone. Yeah, what about when someone
leaves it on too long and you go to peel it off but it's
a little bit sun tattered. Yeah, sun baked. Tears in half. Yeah, I about when someone leaves it on too long and you've got to peel it off but it's a little bit sun...
Tattered.
Yeah, sun-baked.
Kind of like tears in half.
Yeah, I did that with, you know, like painter's tape
and you like stick it to the thingies and you paint and stuff.
This is the first house we had and I left it baking in the sun all summer.
And I reckon it's still there.
The new owners just have that now.
I did that.
Well, someone's done it to their new TV.
I did this to my new TV recently and
it was absolutely fine.
And they started doing it. They're like,
here we go. And they were filming the thing because it's
so bloody satisfying. Oh, it is.
It's right up there with pimple popping.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
Absolutely. Hey, by the way, speaking
of popping pimples, just side thought here.
Do I have one? No, no, no.
I've got like nine on the go.
I'm having a moment.
Yeah.
Are there cameras in the lift?
No.
Okay.
No, Shannon's shaking her head yes.
Oh.
Is there?
Carwin and Shannon both, oh, what have you done?
Well, I popped a pimple in the mirror because there's a mirror in there.
Oh, everybody's popped a pimple in that mirror.
Yeah, there's mirrors in our lifts.
It's a very bright light.
It immediately shows up any blemish.
Any pimple.
If there are cameras,
can we please get that footage
from about 5 a.m. this morning?
Because I was like,
oh, yuck,
and I just got my little fingernails in there.
Did it do that thing where it pops on the mirror?
No, it wasn't juicy enough,
but it was enough that it had a white head on it.
So I was like,
I better not just deal with that.
You are so grim.
I know, but you know,
she's real. She's keeping it real. So this woman like, I better not just deal with that. You are so grim. I know but you know, she's real.
She's keeping it real. So this woman went to go peel off the thing and she's doing it
and then it was like really thick but it was
coming off quite easily. Yeah. And then
realised it wasn't
actually the protective thing.
It was the polarisation
film. So when she
had finished
pulling it off, it looked just like a light box.
Like a white screen.
And then when you hold
the polarisation thing over it
then you could see what was on the TV.
Did she buy it?
No, it's a proper TV.
It's a proper brand.
No.
Apparently people have been doing this.
People have been doing this
You've got to be really careful you're not actually peeling your TV screen off
When you get your little pincers in there
It's not like
You've got to be careful that you don't go one layer too deep
You know what I mean?
Because you've got the protective coat
And I think she just put her fingernail one coat too deep
And peeled the whole bloody thing off
And then she ended up being like, well,
whoops. So her TV's ruined
or? Yeah, absolutely ruined.
Oh wow, okay. Yeah, it's absolutely ruined.
You couldn't just like stick it back on
it would be all tattery around the edges.
And this is brand new TV.
So, but still satisfying for us to watch.
It is
so smooth and so delicious
to watch. It is so smooth and so delicious to watch. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley from the
self-driving ZM Think Tank.
This is the Top
Six.
Hi there!
Powerball was won at the weekend. 17.8

There'll be signs.
I've got the top six signs.
Your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million.
Okay.
Number six on the list.
New RM Williams boots.
Even though they said their well-worn RM Williams would last a lifetime.
Yeah.
God, you'd buy all of them, wouldn't you?
You'd just have every style.
Yeah.
A boot for every occasion. Yeah. Oh, you'd buy all of them, wouldn't you? You'd just have every style. Yeah. A boot for every occasion.
Yeah.
Oh, and a belt, a matching belt.
Yeah.
That's how they get you.
100%.
Number five on the list of the top six signs your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million.
Sharon just got a fresh hairdo, and I tell you what, she looks lovely.
Oh, does she?
She's got some highlights, some lowlights, some babylights.
She's going for the old school 2006 Christchurch Mints and Cheese.
Yep.
Dark hair underneath.
Blonde on top.
Brown yellow, brown yellow.
That's a Christchurch Relatel special, that one.
Yeah, nicely cropped.
Cropped up the side there.
Yeah, almost a buzz at the back.
Yeah.
Yep.
Yep.
She looks nice.
How did she get that done on a Sunday?
Well, she's got $17 million.
How did she get that done on a Sunday? I think she's got $17 million. How did she get that done on a Sunday?
I think she might be the winner.
I think she might have won the lottery.
It would have taken a few hours there.
It would have taken a long time.
Number four on the list of the top six signs your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million.
Finally pulled the trigger on those Crusaders season tickets.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Might even get a box.
Oh, yeah.
Might even get a box.
Oh, yeah.
With $17 million, you get a box. Might even get a box. Yeah. Do you want to come to the rugby? We've get a box. Oh, yeah. Might even get a box. Oh, you're one with 17 mil, you get a box.
Might even get a box.
Yeah.
Do you want to come to the rugby?
We've got a box.
Where did you, how did you come about a corporate box?
Oh, it was Gary.
Gary gets it through work.
Does he?
Yeah, it's a work.
I've been actually seeing Gary at work for months.
Yeah, well, he's been busy with the box.
He's been building it, hasn't he?
He's been building the box. He's been building it, hasn't he? He's been building the box.
He's been building the box.
At the stadium.
I think Gary and Sharon won the lotto.
You think so?
I think so.
Yeah, right, yeah.
Number three on the list of the top six signs your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million in Powerball.
Someone, Sharon and Gary, just booked an Easter long weekend trip to Noosa
and they're going to do a weekend at Port Douglas.
We like
Port Douglas. We love Port Douglas.
This close out must be costing a fortune.
Exactly. Oh, to Australia.
They said they weren't having an Easter break this year.
And now they are.
You know times were tight. Yeah, I know.
I think
Gary and Sharon are the ones.
I think Gary and Sharon are the ones.
Number two on the list of the top six signs
that your Canterbury neighbours just won $17 million.
Gary just got a new Ford Ranger.
Oh, on a Sunday.
On a Sunday.
Wow.
Just like that.
Even though he just got a new Ford Ranger last year.
Okay.
He's got the 2024.
He got the 2024. He's got the 2024.
He said he was going
to hold on to that
for three years
at least because
he didn't need to get
a warrant of fitness.
Minimum.
Minimum three years
that's what he said
and now he's got
a new one.
He's got a new one.
And he's kept the one
from last year.
Of course he has.
It's in the driveway.
If I see his kids
driving a bloody
near brand new Ford Ranger I'll know. Carry it around the lot. If I see his kids driving a bloody near brand new Ford Ranger, I'll know.
Number one on the list of the top six signs your Canterbury neighbour just won $17 million.
Their kids changed schools a week before school starts.
Now, Gary and Sharon might have had to whisper quietly Burnside when they were asked what school they went to,
but their children will answer loudly and proudly,
Christ's mommy.
And I heard the daughter's off to Rangiruru.
She is not.
She's off to Rangiruru.
Now, that's a very difficult school to get into, Rangiruru.
They said they'd never seen their daughter there.
They said some very horrible words about past students.
Now, I always thought it was because they couldn't afford it,
and they were trying to make it like,
they didn't want to afford it, but no, they couldn't afford it.
I think Gary and Sharon might have also.
She's straight on the rowing team.
I know.
Unbelievable. Well, she's got the shoulders for it, but now they can afford it. I think Gary Jarman will also. She's straight on the rowing team. I know.
Well, she's got the shoulders for it.
She is quite broad, isn't she? She's a broad girl.
She's always been stocky.
I wonder if they're worried
if she gets on the rowing team,
she'll be even broader.
Broader.
Really, it'll masculinise her.
Because I was behind her, and because of her short hair
I thought it was a man
I have a feeling
I think Gary and Sharon
she might be lesbian
I tell you what
you guys aren't getting
any of Gary and Shannon's money
at all
Sharon
Sharon
you're not getting any of it
you just called her Shannon
Sharon with a Y you can't be as close now Gary and Sharon and I are very close very close Shannon's money at all. Sharon. Sharon. Sharon. You're not getting any of it. You just called her Shannon.
Sharon with a Y. You can't be as close.
Now, Gary and Sharon and I are very close.
Very close.
And their daughter.
Very close.
She's a lovely lesbian.
You know, I do not have a problem with lesbians.
It's not my business what she gets up into the changing rooms at the boat clubs.
Absolutely not.
You're not getting any of these motherly wins.
I'm not here to judge. I'm not here to judge.
I'm not here to judge.
To each their own.
Are you here to judge?
No.
Absolutely not.
That's like someone would say if they were here to judge.
That's today's top six.
There's a lot of Taylor Swift chat at the wedding we went to on the weekend,
which we're going to talk about later.
God, they love Taylor Swift. They do. Taylor Swift chat At the wedding we went to On the weekend Which we're going to talk about later God they love Taylor Swift
They do
Taylor Swift within the vowels
Yeah
Quite often
Very cute
Now we head to one of our
Resident Swifties in fact
Producer Shannon
Kia ora
Good morning
Good morning
Now Shannon you are just
You have a really pure heart
You are like one of the
Kindest, loveliest
Most helpful people I know.
Let's say something nice about me.
You know I will. It was actually a bit
much actually. I'm going to note that down on the HR.
Do me next.
Do me next. Do me.
But Shannon, your helpful nature
actually ended up
probably spoiling someone's day. Yeah.
Probably quite badly.
Yeah. So what happened?
I'm very directionally challenged.
I never really know where I am.
Sometimes driving home from work I use...
You're at work, my darling?
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is your job.
Thank you.
Sometimes driving home from work I put on maps just for peace of mind.
Do you know peace of mind?
Peace of mind.
Peace of mind.
Just for her peace of mind.
Her peace to resist mind.
You're going off peace.
Off peace.
That's why she's got to have the maps on.
Aaron does it too.
Aaron puts maps on when he drives home just in case there's a something.
No, do you know what?
If I had a car, I would always use it because then you get the live traffic.
Or Waze.
Waze is the best.
Waze is great.
I just wing it.
Do you know what I mean?
I just never really know where I am.
Yeah.
It's terrible.
I know.
But, yeah, so I was on a walk yesterday,
and I was on the phone with my mum,
so I was kind of in my own little world.
And this lady came over quite flustered.
She's like, sorry, sorry, sorry.
And I was like, oh, hello.
Took out my headphones.
She's like, I'm trying to go to the water and then go to Parnell.
Now, I live in Remuera.
Parnell is very close.
Postcode drop.
Postcode drop.
Sorry.
Sorry about it.
Someone's got the best postcode.
Oh, that's a Remuera hitting the ground.
So she asked for directions to see the water and then go to Parnell.
Now, I've looked at a map since.
This would have been about a 10-minute walk if she went left.
And I very confidently said, go right.
Oh, no.
And keep going.
Oh, it's terrible when you say, and just keep going to get that water.
Because I just thought, I don't really know what I thought.
I just told her to go right.
But, yeah, so I've looked and I would have sent her to Menobank.
I would have sent her to Mission Bayank. I would have sent her around to
Mission Bay. I don't know how far
she would have gone. You weren't wrong
though because if she did keep going
she would hit water. I mean in New Zealand
we are on an island. We're a skinny little
island. Yeah. You can
just sort of keep going and you will hit
water. Yeah, she was Australian. She
said she was from Sydney and we had a little
chat but now I'm just a bit worried about her because she had no phone with her was the other Australian. She said she was from Sydney and we had a little chat, but now I'm just a bit
worried about her because she had no phone with her
was the other thing. She probably missed her cruise
ship. She's probably still going.
Why did she not have a phone with her? I don't know.
How old was she? Like a mum.
Like she was like a
mum's age. So highly
a mum. I'll clarify now.
A mum could be
as young as 60 and as
old as 60. No, okay, like
50s, 60s. Oh,
okay, fuel, fuel. You mean like a mum
to an adult? Like to me.
Like my mum. Like your mum.
I am a mum's age, eh? I'm almost, you know
I'm actually almost like,
I'm a mum's age
too. Yeah, so I'm
sorry if this woman has found a phone
and she's on iHeartRadio
Because you said just keep going
What if she was heading north and she's heading all the way up to bloody
What do I do?
Do I go for a drive and try to find her?
I'd have to use maths
She's all gone now
What if she's dead?
She is going to give New Zealand a bad review on TripAdvisor though
Yeah, she would say I met what seemed like a nice Kiwi lad, lass,
and she sent me on a big four-day hike.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Oh, dear.
I'll just try to be better, but realistically I won't.
Nah, but you're good at other things, and that's why we like you.
Yeah. Play. ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Fletchvorn and Hayley, silly little pole, silly little pole.
It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole,
silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole,
silly little pole.
Today's silly little pole, budgie Smugglers, the Speedos.
What do you call them?
Like a brief tog?
Because Speedos is a brand.
Is a brand.
And there is actually a brand called Budgie Smugglers now as well,
which is really popular.
Yeah.
What do you call it under your briefs?
Briefs.
Are they briefs?
What are they called?
Togs?
I was going to call them jockeys, but then that's also a brand.
They're just brands.
It's like glad wrap.
Yeah.
A swim brief or racing brief.
Swim brief.
Is any brief style male swimsuits such as those in competitive swimming, diving or water polo?
Do you guys wear briefs in general outside of the water?
No, never.
No.
Boxer briefs.
I just sort of had an image of Fletch in his briefs.
Yeah.
Wait, you mean brief undies?
Yeah.
I never wear those.
No.
They're always boxer shorts.
A boxer.
Once you gave up your Tasmanian Devil silk boxes.
Which were satin all along.
Every now and then I see him.
Yeah, yeah.
He went to his white, white fronts.
He's maybe slept in and I can see his little Simpsons silk boxes poking out the top of his pants.
No.
Never. Never.
Never.
Only 12% of people responded with love them.
88% not for me.
I think on the right bod, though, sometimes you see it and you're like,
that's nice.
Speaking of which, Nisha says they should be mandatory uniform
for volleyball athletes.
Oh, okay.
Well, they are for the gals.
Oh, that's right.
Remember that kerfuffle? Couldn't wear long shorts to play in gals. Oh, that's right. Remember that kerfuffle?
Couldn't wear long shorts to play in the volleyball, remember?
That's right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm a swimming instructor of 18 years.
Absolutely not.
Some swear of them wear the Speedo on the hope the S falls off.
Peter.
Okay.
Sorry.
That sentence made
little to no sense.
I just tried to read it out loud
to try to structure it.
If I'd known,
I would have avoided it altogether.
It's just run through a,
yeah.
Yeah.
Dan,
sun's out,
buns out.
I've gone through
a body confidence
where a speedo
has become something
I can wear now.
Oh,
that's great to hear, Dan.
Also,
let the gays have some
opportunities for that.
No,
I don't know if he's saying that as a gay or he's just like,
I will do this for you.
And my homosexual brothers.
Judging by Hayley's previous comments as well.
And also for me.
Yeah.
I love to see a body confident man in a Speedo.
It's just, I mean, at the beach, I guess you're getting a tan.
They're good for a tan.
They are good because there's nothing worse than seeing a bloody set of chicken legs
with half brown and half white, you know?
See, I wear Speedos when I swim, but I would never at the beach.
So he does wear them when he swims.
He does wear them.
He does wear them when he swims.
Yeah, I do.
When you do it for fitness reasons.
Yeah.
This is why I think I have an image of it.
He's got great pins.
I've put them up online before.
He's like an America's Cup boat, you know?
You see them
going through the water and going through the water and then they hoist
them out and they've got a massive keel under them.
That's how they were holding on
to those tight corners. And that's a compliment.
Yeah. Big keel hanging
out the side of his speedos.
That's great. Hayley says
highly dependent on the bod.
It's not. Everybody has
a beach body.
Take it to the beach.
I mean, you go to Europe and every shape and size is in a Speedo, aren't they?
Do you know what?
My mum says this all the time
because she lives in Italy half the year.
She's always like,
oh, I wish I could get a bit in shape
before we go to Italy.
And then she's like,
but hang on, you get to Italy
and literally everybody has a beach body over there.
Also, they don't know anyone there.
I know.
So who cares?
No, I know.
Rhys said, what's not to love?
I want a pair of Kiwis rugby league Speedos, and I love wearing them.
Okay.
Get out there.
Hannah says, can we leave some things to the imagination, please?
No.
This goes for some bikinis that I've seen lately, if you'd call them that.
Oh, the G-Bang of style.
Oh, yeah, because everybody's togs up their ass.
They're going right up the crack, aren't they?
Right up the crack.
Full cheek. Pete says, just easy to swim Right up. Right up the crack. Full cheek.
Pete says,
just easy to swim in.
Don't get dragged under by board shorts.
Of course, assuming you're actually swimming.
What are you talking to your board shorts?
Are they dragging you under?
Yeah.
Does he mean at the beach or in the pool?
I think he means at the beach.
Yeah, okay.
Lara said,
some things are better left to the imagination.
That sort of sums it up a little bit.
At the beach,
it doesn't leave anything to the imagination, does it?
Isn't that what people like?
Some people like, yeah.
Sometimes I like to imagine things,
and sometimes I just straight up want to see it.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, in plain sight.
Yeah, yeah.
Feeling that.
There's a little pop.
So it's a no for budgie smugglers, for speed up.
Yeah, I think.
They're going to come around again.
I hope. They're going to come around again. I hope.
Fingers crossed.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Now, the University of Glasgow.
God, I love the Glaswegian accent.
You can barely understand it.
It's a lot of fun.
Yeah.
The University of Glasgow,
their researchers looked into what makes a face
be perceived as rich or poor,
totally regardless of race, gender, and actual amount of money that you have.
Right.
Do they mean like healthy?
No, like wealthy.
Right, okay.
I mean, I suppose if you're wealthy.
But no, it doesn't really come down.
Not things like a beautiful well rested face
right so this would mean you're
going to be rich at some stage
no perceived as
oh did you want me to read your face and let you know
that everything was going to be financially
okay was going to be okay
or if I had a poor face I'd just be like well that makes
sense and I'd just give up
yeah nah I can't do that.
But they basically got, they studied all these people
and took, you know, perceptions of faces.
And what they came down to was those with narrow faces.
I'm out.
I've got quite a moon face.
You don't have a moon face.
Thank you so much.
But I've got a narrow face.
You don't have a, like, yeah, you're talking round other than a narrow face, you don't have a moon.
Are you talking round moon, like full moon?
Or that one with the moon side on?
I'm sorry.
No, because I was going to say you don't have,
but then to me the side on moon face, that is a narrow face.
No, no, no.
Narrow isn't like this way narrow.
Like looking at someone face on.
Yeah, yeah.
Rather than a round face.
I'd say your face is on the narrower side of things.
I'd say, yeah, same.
I'd say it's on the narrow side.
Thanks.
I don't know why I want a narrow face.
Okay.
A narrow face, upturned mouth at rest.
Oh, so if your lips go down, that's bad?
Mm.
Okay.
Yours is upturned.
Oh, wait, we haven't found out if this is good or bad yet.
No, we don't know.
All you need to know is you're just describing a face. This could be a poor face. Narrow face, upturned mouth., wait, we haven't found out if this is good or bad yet. No, we don't know. All you know is you're just describing a face.
Narrow face, upturned mouth, closely spaced eyes,
raised eyebrows, are deemed to be better off.
So that's a rich face.
That's a rich face.
I'm real my rich face.
Narrow, upturned mouth, eyes closer together.
Yeah.
And raised brows. Not too close, though. Not too close. Not too close, eyes closer together. Yeah. And raised brows.
Not too close though.
Not too close.
Not too close.
Not too close.
Yeah.
Not too close though.
Whereas they said wider, shorter and flatter.
Because I've got quite a flat side profile other than my ski slope nose,
which goes wee at the end.
Yeah.
And downturned mouths are said to be. Those are people perceived the end. Yeah. And downturned mouths are said to be poor face.
As poor.
Yeah.
And then regardless of your skin tone,
if you're a cool toned like complexion,
that makes you look poorer than if you were a warmer toned complexion.
Apparently, according to this.
Because I always thought the warmer toned complexion
Meant that you were outside probably doing hard labour
No they're not talking about
Tone in terms of colour
Or like depth of colour
The undertone of it
Because Sade's Thai grandmother
Always used to tell us she looked poor
Because she was too tanned
I know and when I would go to places
Like Thailand with my like really pale skin,
they'd be like, holy moly.
Yeah, wow.
And I'd be like, no, why?
And you see like advertising for like whitening creams,
skin whitening creams.
Yeah, so they're not talking about how dark or light your skin is.
It's the undertone of the complexion
or you're cool toned or not.
I feel like you've got a rich face, Fletch.
As Vaughn reeks of comedy.
That face just
says, poor. It just says, like,
help me, I'm poor. What if you're
that couple in Crush It's waking up with
$17 million in a lotto? Your face changed
dramatically overnight. If you
won $17 million yesterday, you have
an upturned mouth. 100%
you do.
Now, we spent the weekend all together, didn't we? We did. 100% you do. Now we
spent the weekend all together
didn't we? We did. We went to a
wedding in the Bay of
Plenty and
we drove down. You flew
because you can't. Must be nice. Yeah, must
be nice. Well, I know I got some
grab a seat flights and I was like
what's better?
I genuinely think yours was cheaper than ours.
Yes.
Because by the time you fuel there and back,
it literally would have been cheaper.
I know.
Yeah.
Anyway,
when you drive from Auckland to the,
the Mount where we,
where we stayed,
you can go one of two ways.
You can go via Matamata,
or you can go via Pairoa.
You've got multiple ways. Actually, I will correct you there. You can go stand Matamata or you can go via Pairoa. You've got multiple ways,
actually.
I will correct you there.
You can go State Highway
one now, right?
You can.
Hamilton, pop out there
at Tampacara,
Piro,
cross,
Tipoi,
over the Kaimai Ranges.
You can go State Highway 27,
which leads you through
just the cusp of Morrinsville.
It's sort of like,
it's like all roads lead to Rome.
Did I just come up with that?
Oh, that was pretty good. That was pretty good. What a great saying. Because when all roads lead to Rome. Did I just come up with that? Oh, that was pretty good.
What a great
saying. Because when I've been to Rome before
and it's like many roads, they're all
leading there. So it's sort of
an analogy about how all
roads eventually lead you. In this situation, the
mount is Rome.
Is Rome. Yeah, okay. Wow. It's like the
old more cheaper song. The mount wasn't built
in a day. Hey, hey, hey.
Well, I usually, because I go to the Bay of Plenty quite a lot actually
and those are the two routes that I take.
And I feel it on a whim.
And I was going to go Matamata way and I said to Vaughan,
I think we're going to go via Matamata.
And Vaughan said, you don't want to go to Pairoa and look at the op shops?
And I went, I'm changing my route.
Because I love an
antique shop. I was with Aaron
and we were on cruisy
time, like no need to get there quickly.
Now before you left on Friday, I said
I bet you $10
there's at least five gollywogs
in the op shop. There was seven in one
shop. Yeah, seven in one shop. And it's sort of
a collection, almost in a little
cluster, like a display. Right, like they were proud of them. Yeah, seven in one shop. And it's sort of a collection, almost in a little cluster, like a display.
Right, like they were proud of them. Yeah, I will say
Well at this stage it would be more racist to throw
them out. You don't throw out the white dolls,
do you? Well it's not fair, they don't know what they're
doing. Some of my best friends were gollywogs
growing up. I was a lonely child.
I told you, eh, that my mum
like she had a childhood gollywog, despite
having, oh anyway, and
I can't.
And she rediscovered it recently.
Did she ever say, I'm allowed a gollywog, I'm a Maori.
I'm a Maori.
No, she never said that and then not even linked.
And she just felt so bad.
Like she just couldn't throw it out.
She's like, oh, but, oh, Hayley, I can't.
And then I said, you need to get rid of that.
Like we just can't have it.
And then I came back to her house and it was in the wardrobe.
And she was like, well, it's not out on display.
Small steps, you know.
Small steps.
Anyway, yes, there was a big display of gollywogs.
Okay.
Good Lord.
But that wasn't the discovery.
Yeah.
So in our bathroom, because the bathroom is brand new,
we needed to bring some, some like little antique vibes into it
because we like our old things.
And we found this old phone box
that we've turned into like a antique medical cabinet
above the toilet.
And it's full of little like bottles
and sort of apothecary things.
But we wanted to find a few more bits and bobs
and we saw all this vintage medical stuff,
like old wound dressings and ointments and stuff.
They just look great.
So we're going through that. And then
Aaron was like, we need some tools,
like dental tools or something like that.
And then we said to the woman behind the counter,
oh, you know, what else
do you have in the medical realm? And she said, oh, I've got
this, this, this, having a look through. And she said,
I've got this
old aspirin
box as well. She said, but there's a bit of
a funny story behind it.
And she said where she gets her stuff from, right?
They send, she goes through and they send stuff to her.
And she said she shook the aspirin box and was like,
oh, it's still got the old trays of aspirin in it.
How amazing is that?
Opened it up and it wasn't aspirin.
What it was, and I've shown these to you guys,
actually at the pub
we had a look at them,
are old 1960s
slides
of pornography.
Of nude women.
Sort of amateur,
semi-amateur
posed nude women.
You'd call it tasteful like
classic sort of 60s...
Yeah.
Not grotesque.
Or graphic, anyway.
I reckon it would have been pretty graphic for the day.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to send some of these to the group chat,
because I took photos.
I worked out how to take photos of slides.
This was the weirdest part, right?
It was, like, watching Vaughn go through them
and then get his phone and be like,
I'll take one of that one,
and I'll take a little bicky of this one.
I reckon these are someone's grandma.
Are they different women
or the same person?
There's sort of
maybe like
There's one real hot one
that's in a lot of the photos.
She was my favourite.
There is some fantastic
brass band.
There could be someone
out there that's what?
Return of the Bush too.
In the 80s.
70s or 80s.
Well yeah,
if it was taken in the 60s
and they look
at 20 odd
60 years ago
so yeah totally they'd be knocking into their 80s
some of them
the breasts might not look the same
and that's a damn shame because good lord
some of them
they're kind of in little clusters
I think there's a few different women
and then there's different styles
there's the really sort of sexual ones and then there's sort of these kind of like strong posed ones
and then there's very arty ones.
And I don't know what we're going to do with them.
They're quite wonderful.
It feels very like art-like.
They're incredible.
Do you think maybe some you could transfer them, print them out into like prints?
Yeah, we showed one of our friends who's into film yesterday
and he was like, you should print some of these.
Like they're absolutely amazing.
Well, I bought, because my granddad loved slides,
but he never got them developed into like the photo versions.
So I've got like boxes of slides and I bought a digital slide thing.
We could pop them in there.
Yeah, I thought so too.
What did you say?
What did you just say? I'll just get six,
shall I? Yeah, should we go, should we put down
a Harvey Norman with the USB ones that's on there
and print, you know, some more?
Some big ones. I think Harvey Norman and
what is it, Warehouse Stationery
have some strict rules about what they print out
on there. Do they? Do you know what?
I think, so the woman
at the antique shop, her theory
was that the husband hid these in the aspirin box, right?
Maybe his whole life as a little treat for himself
and that when maybe his life came to an end or something like that
and this box found its way to an antique shop,
that they just didn't think to open it and have a look.
So wait, rewind.
You would never hide anything from your wife in the aspirin box
because wives constantly have headaches.
Women always have headaches.
Yeah, they constantly do.
That's why.
I just couldn't.
I've got a headache.
Yeah.
I tell you what, I'd pop and see his slides.
That'd get rid of a headache, wouldn't it?
Could you imagine the absolute admin
and your wife just pops down to do the shopping
and then you've got to get the aspirin box out,
get the projector out.
Well, the great thing is
he's done a shortcut
on quite a few of the ones
and I'd say some of the better ones
it says this way up.
And he's written it
for quick reference,
I think.
So he's not clicking
through a slide machine.
An upside down picture
would really ruin a,
you know,
session there
when the wife's
popping in the supermarket.
Anyway,
these are
absolutely amazing
I wish I could show you
but it's a bit
did she
she just sold them to you
even though she knew
yeah well she didn't
want to part with them
she was like
these are pretty special
yeah
and then
we did a bit of a
back and forth
of name your price
I did pay
she absolutely saw
these two coming
yeah
once they were buying
we scream Auckland as well
do you know what I mean
yeah
I paid a good price but I'm the proud owner of them.
They're pretty amazing.
And what a discovery.
I was in tasteful nudes.
Very tasteful nudes.
Delighted to be joined in studio with the wonderful Guy Williams.
Hello, Guy.
Guys, I'm not fishing for compliments, but when you guys teased me,
I was listening on the car and then you guys were saying
Guy Williams is coming up. I was cringing
and as a listener,
I was like, I don't want to hear from Guy
Williams.
That guy's washed up.
It's like saying, coming up, we've got Dane
Rumble coming up
with Indonesian mystic.
I'm like, a blast from the past. You're not a blast from the past. Hey, I would love that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're not a blast from the past.
I've put a suit on for people who can't see.
For a radio interview, I've put a suit on like I wear on the show.
Like, I'm just so despo.
It's really kind of cringe, guys.
It's sad.
It's not sad.
But you're aware that you're self-aware, so I think it drags it back out a bit.
Don't say self-aware, because that's confirming his family.
No, no, no.
It's really.
You're aware it's a possibility, so I think that's...
It's so nice to be here, though, guys.
I appreciate you having me on a holiday.
It's impressive you guys are working.
You guys are the backbone of the New Zealand economy right now.
Stop talking like we're just doing a favour
to an absolute raisin guest.
If you don't know, I emailed to book this interview myself.
The publicity lady has a sore neck at TV3.
That's the worst.
Can you email around and do some publicity for the show?
She's like, I'd love to, but just crook.
I can't turn much.
Could you do it?
Could you email, try to organise your own?
I'm just so sore.
I genuinely think the best comedy is just my real sad life.
And that is what it is.
This is what I do.
Every day is just so bleak.
And I just like share that.
And that is my best comedy, I think.
It's better than me trying to write something or anything like that.
But shout out to TV3 publicity.
And hope your neck gets better soon.
Sarah, hope your neck gets better soon.
You're doing a great job.
Okay.
Well, it's not all bleak because you've got a new season of New Zealand Today,
which is honestly, I mean, I've said it before.
We've interviewed you before about it.
That's why I come in every year.
And we just love it.
It's such good TV.
It is so good.
Every time I watch it, I'm always like, I could never do that.
I could never put myself in those positions.
I could never make myself look a fool like that.
And sometimes you go into these, like, terrifying confrontations.
A righteous fool.
I look good all the way through.
I look nothing but good.
No, I just genuinely love it.
And I was looking back at some of the episodes
that I've absolutely adored.
The Mount Albert barbecue noodle house.
Great debate.
Well, let me let you know this.
Hey, good effort.
You're referencing some deep cuts there.
Whenever people meet me,
they always just remember Karen
and the time I interviewed the mongrel mob.
So nice. The fact you've named some that aren't there
is very impressive.
The Huntley episode is my favourite.
Maybe that's because I grew up kind of close to Huntley.
Adjacent, Huntley adjacent.
I was Huntley adjacent.
Bro, I'm dreaming to do Morrinsville.
That's on my bucket list of ones to do.
I will get there one day, hopefully,
assuming we don't get cancelled for this season
because it's wild.
But we go back to the Mount Albert BBQ noodle houses.
Do you?
Yeah, I'll give you a bitodle Houses. Do you? Yeah.
I'll give you a bit of a story.
Can you give a background for those that didn't see the episode
or don't know about the battle?
In Auckland, we have two BBQ Noodle Houses next to each other.
One is called the Mount Albert BBQ Noodle House,
and the one next door that looks almost exactly the same
is called the Mount Albert BBQ Noodle House.
Yeah.
It's so weird.
I used to live in Mount Albert,
and you'd call up, and you'd order,
and then you'd go to pick it up,
and you had no idea which one you were going to.
And then you'd turn up, you'd be like,
order for Hayley.
They'd be like, next door.
You'd be like, oh, sorry.
Sorry.
Wait, so different owners.
Different owners.
Yeah.
Apparently they were cousins or brothers.
And I tried to get to the bottom of it
and i kind of couldn't they were few i was trying to find out which one was the original one yeah
right but get this i kind of worked backwards on this i don't want to pull back the magician's
curtain too far but what happened was there's a story i've always dreamed of doing which is one
and this might mean something to you it might not it's um Succulent Chinese Meal. Oh my God. Democracy Manifest. Yeah, yeah.
For people-
Are you touching my penis?
Yeah.
I see you know your judo well.
Okay, for people who haven't seen the video,
we're going to sound like insane people right now.
Yeah.
A very famous YouTube clip,
a man who is getting arrested by police
and he yells at the police for,
get your hands off my penis
and I see you know your judo well.
Those are great.
The catchphrases, iconic.
I dreamed of interviewing that guy.
That guy's in Australia.
So the only way I could wedge this Australian man
into my show, New Zealand Today, was to get him.
He's an expert on succulent Chinese meals.
Of course he is.
So I got the succulent Chinese meals from Mount Albert.
I smuggled them to Australia.
Don't ask how.
And when I got to Australia,
I decided to get that man,
the man from the succulent Chinese meal video,
to sample the Matt Albert BBQ Noodle House succulent Chinese meals.
Would it have been easier to fly him to New Zealand
rather than risk the large fines you may have got?
No, no.
And I'll tell you why.
Because that man, the man from the Suck It In Chinese Meal video,
is a multiple criminal convictions and would not be allowed to fly.
When they arrested him and it was being videoed,
he was like on the run, right?
And he was a fraudster.
And he ripped people off for millions of dollars.
No, no, no.
Get this.
It's even better than you think that.
That was the story that the police told, which may be true,
but his version of events is even worse than that.
He's like, I'm not a fraudster.
I was a bank robber.
I'm like, that's worse.
That doesn't make the story better for you.
No, it's better because then he's not defrauding innocent people.
He's ripping off big banks.
Yeah, that's true.
So he's feeling a bit better about robbing a bank.
He didn't even call himself a bank robber.
I did call him a bank robber.
He said, I'm not a bank robber.
I didn't go in there with guns and stuff like that.
He just snuck in the middle of the night and used gel ignite to blow the doors off safes.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's much safer.
Yeah, that's fine.
Right?
We're okay with that.
Yeah.
Wow.
So I went to the outbook back and interviewed this guy.
Do you know one of the most amazing people I've ever...
You know where you start with like a little thread and you just keep on pulling and it
just gets more and more outrageous.
Yeah, right.
By the end of it,
he was telling me about threesomes he'd had.
It was crazy.
Wow.
He was one of the most amazing people.
So to talk to him,
for people who know the YouTube video,
suck it in Chinese meal if you want a YouTuber.
Yeah, please do.
I should have pre-planned the clip,
but that is one of the most amazing stories
we told from this season.
I'm really proud of it.
So you said that you're worried about getting,
because the show did get cancelled,
and then came back.
It's been cancelled many times.
All my shows have been cancelled so many times,
and for good reason as well.
They do not rank.
You're the cockroach of television.
Yeah.
So you're worried you're going to get cancelled.
You said it's a wild season.
Yeah.
Can you pepper a little what can we expect?
The most controversial story I don't even want to talk about,
because I don't want to let people know about it.
No, you're good, good, good.
One exciting one that I'm excited about
that we may get sued for
is I decided to track down Jim from Jim's Mowing.
Oh, great.
Who's Jim?
Does he actually exist?
He's a real person.
Okay.
He lives in Australia.
He's a multi-millionaire.
Of course he is.
And he told me,
I don't know how to make this radio friendly,
he told me the secret to his success,
millions of dollars,
thousands of franchises, was nocturnal emissions,
which is a very weird religious way for saying,
I don't know, how would you go sanitise that for radio?
Wet dreams.
Wet dreams.
Wet dreams.
Wet dreams.
What?
I asked him why he didn't sort himself out as a young man,
and he said, I didn't know how.
He told me he didn't know how.
Mate, you talked about masturbation with Jim's mowing.
No, the lack of masturbation with Jim's mowing.
Right.
And if he masturbated, it would have taken care of it.
And people think, my dad thinks I use actors.
There's no actors.
This is all real.
We went to talk to the guy from Jim's mowing.
This is what he said to me.
I didn't lead with this.
I didn't try and be funny.
This is just, but you know, it's like everyone in New Zealand,
everyone, you ever go home for Christmas
and you talk to your uncle.
You're like, this guy is bat crap crazy.
And it was like, that's what it's like on New Zealand Today.
And that's what I love about the show
is that we find these strange, strange people.
Yeah, you're like a magnet for it, I reckon.
It's like the planets aligning.
That's radio as well.
You guys do phoners and stuff like that.
You get people calling with outrageous stuff all the time.
I love it.
It's what makes this country great.
People don't give a crap.
They want to make fun of themselves and they want to have a laugh.
We love that.
The new season, when does it start?
It's on the 8th?
February 8th.
I didn't send them an email letting them know when it starts. It on the 8th? February 8th. I didn't send them an email and let them know when it starts.
It starts in two weeks on February 8th.
TV three and three now.
Please watch.
I'm so desperate.
That's about a week and a half.
It's a week and a bit.
Week and a bit.
Should we call it 10 days?
Should we call it 10 days?
I'm saying it's 10 days away.
It feels like it's 10 days away.
Yeah, nine days?
Because January goes to the 31st.
January to the 31st. It's so important. It's 10 days away. Yeah, nine days? Because January goes to the 31st. January to the 32th and then 8th is 10 days, I reckon.
The important thing is, if you see a link or something,
please watch some of it, please.
Would have been crazy because he booked this interview,
but 10 days out.
I would have done like the night off.
I think I might have forgotten by the time it comes out.
Yeah, I think people may forget in 10 days.
Oh, please.
Do you want to come back?
Should we have you back in in 10 days?
Oh, why are you torturing me?
Thanks for coming, guys.
Thank you.
I have a question for not only
the people in this room, but the people listening
with their audio ears currently.
Do you eat in the shower?
No. Never?
Never. Eat or drink?
Drink, yes.
You do a shower beer, Zia.
At the end of a long day of doing something
when you're sweaty and you're in the shower,
the shower beer is top five drinks of all time.
Remember, I have shared online
that I used to have a little bit of a durry in the shower
when I was 18, 19.
It's already got an extractive in.
That's a great place to smoke if you're in a...
Yeah, I have a little bourbon and coke and a cigarette in the shower.
You sound like such a grim student.
I know, so grim.
I wish I could have just met you 18 to 24
just to see how much of a hot mess you were.
I was going to say, look, I've sorted it out,
but that's all so loose.
If we ever get a time machine, we're going back to sea those days.
It's funny.
Good fun.
Well, the reason I asked
this is because
Jessica Biel,
actress,
philanthropist.
Is he?
Yeah.
Justin Timberlake's
missus.
Yeah.
Was she in
the Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
I feel like she's
too famous
to be doing those
like screamy
horror films.
That was a while ago though.
That was a while ago.
2003, yeah.
She admitted that she eats in the shower, like all the time.
Eats meals,
snacks, fruits, everything.
For me, it's like
you equate the shower with
losing all your yuck
and getting clean. So then why would you
eat during that? She eats cereal.
No,
because then the shower water could get in
the milk. And get in the milk.
And dilute the milk.
Cereal, yogurt, coffee, tea, popsicles.
She said anything.
See, I could have a popsicle in the shower.
I reckon it doesn't do it.
After a hard day of hard yakka.
Coffee, maybe.
I have developed a bad habit of having a weekend poo and a coffee.
Oh, coffeeing while you poo.
Yeah.
Ew, you're holding it.
No, I said it.
You know, well, do you know our bathroom?
You sit on the toilet and the vanity's right there.
And I'll play on my phone and then stop and have a shot.
I'll be like, why are you doing that?
I'll be like, because I'm relaxing, baby.
That is disgusting.
I don't know that it is yet because you haven't touched your bum yet.
No, I'm not touching my bum.
And he's clogging up the...
I was reading an article yesterday
when I was researching prep for the show that even
if you shut the lid of the toilet,
it still goes out the side.
When you flush.
I've got a fat bum at the moment.
There are particles.
You'd make a seal.
It's good to be a bit heavier set.
I finish the coffee when I flush the toilet.
But there are particles in the bathroom
everywhere is my point. I can't see when I flushed the toilet. But there are particles in the bathroom everywhere.
I can't see them.
They don't exist.
This is like when you tried to tell me COVID-19 was real.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know a single person that had it.
Prove it.
Well, I want to know if you eat in the shower.
What you eat in the shower.
What's the strangest thing you've eaten in the shower?
Maybe you've had a kebab.
Ten points for a butter chicken.
I once
ate a butter chicken while driving
with my hands and I
That is absolutely disgusting.
It smelt so good
that I was like, if I just reach
clock the lid and then just reach
in for a bit of chicken, it'll be fine.
I've had a footlong subway and I've just
remembered. In the shower? the lads were going out.
It was when I lived in Hamilton
and I was a mess
and they said,
do you need anything?
I said, I need nothing more
than a footlong meatball sub.
And they brought it back
and they brought it into me
while I was in the shower
on the floor
and I pushed myself
into the corner
and ate it.
I ate a foot of bread.
By the time I got to the end,
I was like, it was wet.
It was wet.
That is absolutely disgusting
It was wet
Okay we want to take your calls
Like Jessica Beale
Do you eat in the shower?
We want you to admit
What it is you eat in the shower
Yeah
Maybe this is something you do regularly
Or from time to time
Maybe it saves time in the morning
Maybe it's a bit yeah
So you have breakfast in the shower
0800 dials at mcall now
You can text as well
9696
Do you eat in the shower?
And what have you eaten in the shower? We're asking you right now Do you eat in the shower? And what have you eaten in the shower?
And we're asking you right now,
do you eat in the shower?
And what do you eat in the shower?
Because Jessica Biel reveals
that she eats like cereal and stuff,
which is like the bowl and that's already wet.
Yeah, that's a no.
Georgia, what do you eat in the shower?
Well, I take oranges into the shower.
Now this, I remember Morgan Penn, sexologist and co-host of Sex.Life.
New season coming.
Season two coming soon on the 14th of February.
Yep.
She did this as well because all the smells and everything goes everywhere, doesn't it?
Yeah, well, when you take it in whole and you peel it in the shower,
the smells go through the hot water and it makes it smell so nice.
And then you don't get juices everywhere.
And then you just can slobber it.
Like a fart, Georgia.
They always smell better in a hot shower, don't they?
Like a what? A fart.
Oh, no. Better than a fart.
Oranges are much better than farts.
I'm saying they are always...
There's something about that hot water that really
extrapolates it. You're not getting the messy
fingers because you're in the shower.
You just wash it. But it also smells amazing.
And that goes away. And then
the water makes the oranges a little more juicy.
I'm going to try this.
It's a good tip, actually.
I like that.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
It's time-consuming, though, isn't it?
Oh, but on a Saturday morning shower,
when you've got to wash your hair and other things,
it's a great way to kill the time.
On a sap day.
On a sap day.
I struggle with a peel oranges.
I struggle with an orange.
You get a little tool.
Yeah, you've got to get the little, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Georgia.
Are you describing a knife?
Georgia.
No, there's these things and they go under.
No, it's like got a handle with like a sharp sort of metal bit at the end.
Yeah, and they go under the peel.
I think you're describing a knife.
I think what you're describing there is a knife.
Torrin, what do you eat in the shower?
Cyclones and lemonades.
Oh, yum.
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.
Cyclones are the lollies
That spit
They're ice blocks
And they spit up
One's blue and one's red
And it's like
Oh okay
Will it melt?
Uh
It's partially melt
So like the outside melts
And then you
You don't really have to be
So you've got to be quite quick
Yeah you'd have to
Really get a
Yeah yeah yeah
Slip it up
It gives you like a
Foamy
Like
I don't know,
like cold foamy juice on the outside.
Oh, yes.
If you want to bite in, you can.
And if you want to bite in, you can.
Ouch.
But like an orange, you're always with an ice pot,
you get the sticky fingers, but you're in the shower.
It's perfect.
But you're in the shower, so, yeah.
Amazing.
Torrin, thank you.
Keep your texts coming in 9696 0800 DALS at M.
Do you eat in the shower?
Get to more of those next.
Hearing from you about the things that you eat in the shower,
whether you eat something sloppy like a fruit or a cyclone
or like Jessica Biel, you eat a bowl of cereal.
And it turns out quite a lot of us are eating in the shower.
I'm blown away.
Somebody said this is rank. Some of my work of us are eating in the shower. I'm blown away. Someone said this is rank.
Someone at my work was eating boiled eggs in the shower.
We used to find eggshells sitting on the shelf.
They're like peeling in the shower.
In the work shower.
Yeah.
Smash a couple of boiled eggs.
Oh, no.
We got confirmation they were boiled
or were they just cracking an actual egg into their mouth?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
I did that thing at the weekend where I cracked the egg on the bench.
Way easier. I did it too. I did that thing at the weekend where I cracked the egg on the bench. Way easier.
I did it too.
I did it too.
Wasn't it a game changer?
No shell.
No shell.
I know, same.
This literally has solved
quite a major problem for me.
I'm not as excited.
I've been doing it for years.
Yeah.
I know,
but we're fresh to this
and yeah, honestly.
Did you have any dribble
on the bench though?
I think there was like a tiny spot one. Yeah, and you know my bench top's quite soft so you, I don't know, but we're fresh to this. Yeah, honestly. Did you have any dribble on the bench, though? I think there was like a tiny spot once.
Yeah, and you know my bench top's quite soft,
so I don't know.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, maybe on a chopping board.
On a chopping board.
Yeah.
I drink my protein shake
and then wash my shaker in the shower
with this little dishwashing thing
that I also keep in the shower.
Protein shakes are so young.
Just on their own like that.
Yeah.
You'd want to do that.
You'd want to let some shower run
for a bit of time after that
because there's nothing worse than a leftover protein.
Oh, my God.
Anyone who eats in the shower doesn't have to clean the drain.
If they did have to clean it, they wouldn't eat in the shower.
Do you think that person is saying because you're eating in proximity
to something so gross?
Yeah, maybe.
Because the shower is gross.
The drain as a drain cleaner.
Yeah, you clean the drain
and you're just like, bleh. It's disgusting.
Elizabeth, what do you eat in the shower?
Salt and vinegar chips.
What? There's like a little bag.
You've got to go snack pack because
Well, you wouldn't cut out a big bag
because I'd just get soggy.
Too much water in there.
You've got to snack pack and go fast.
Right, and it's just a nice little treat for you.
I don't do it often, but I love a salt and vinegar chip anyway.
Yeah, you're not wrong.
And in the shower.
Oh, ho, ho.
Oh, ho, ho.
I love that.
I love that. Thank you for sharing. That noise is enough for me to want to try it anyway. To try that. I love that.
That noise is enough for me to want to try it anyway.
To try that.
Thank you.
Some more messages in.
No, there was no more messages in.
Here's where I would put in the messages from our Auckland,
Waikato and Nelson listeners, but they're all on holiday.
No, this is one I really like.
I got a bit sloshed after going out for my birthday,
so I took some carrot cake into the shower with me afterwards
and it was life-changing.
No other way to eat a cake.
Because of the moisture.
But it's quite a moist cake already.
I suppose.
Quite a sloppy cake.
Yeah, quite a sloppy cake.
I don't know that you want to get water on it.
Maybe like the orange person, it was the added smell of it.
Carrot cakes will smell really nice.
It was the added scent that really boosts
the olfactory scent.
Play Zed-N.
Let's vote in Ailey.
Play Zed-N.
A lovely air bed and breakfast at the weekend.
I think if it's going to be
Airbnb, there better be breakfast
but we had to take our own breakfast.
Went down Friday afternoon
for a wedding that was on Saturday and said out loud as well as in text
We can't have a big night the night before
No
Because we've done that before
Yeah
I had even gone
I had even made an early 5pm dinner booking
To get some food
And then we'll tottle off home
And we said we weren't going to invite everyone to this dinner
just so that it didn't become a big social event,
just a small group.
Yes.
And we'll pop home and go to bed.
How'd that go?
Now, someone explain to me where half a bottle of Jameson's went.
Someone explain to me why I ended up with a Lion Red in my hand at one point.
We're drinking Lion Reds.
It did.
I think we were all excited
about the vintage pornography
that you found
in the Pairoa antique shop
on the way down.
Antique shop.
That really amped up the mood.
I know.
Good weather.
Good weather.
Good weather.
Also, we scooted around
and that was really fun.
And then like the four of us,
me and Vaughn
and our partners were staying together
and then you know when we're all
leaving the pub what do you say we'll see you tomorrow
he said no we'll come back
and then Fletch because you were working you did a great job
by the way as MC
you were working so you didn't even make it
I did a dress for her we had a run through
and did some helping out at the wedding
so we were like well if we're waiting for Fletch
anyway he's going to want to eat some food.
He might as well just all come back to our place.
I've got the steamer as well so I could steam everyone's clothes.
Just where did it all go wrong?
What time did you leave?
What time did you guys leave?
10.30?
Because I think that's when we started doing show tunes.
That's when The Book of Mormon came out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was show tunes.
Everyone had to choose a song from a musical
and we just absolutely blasted that.
Now, I will say as well, when we checked in,
there was instructions from the Airbnb host.
Number one on the list was,
please no parties or loud noises.
I've had some bad guests in the past
and the neighbours will run me out of town
if it happens again.
The next morning,
as we were all sort of silently recovering
and trying to get our shit together so we could go to this wedding,
I went outside and I was like, boy, this is a quiet neighbourhood.
Yeah.
I was up before everybody and I heard like a tink, tink, tink, tink.
And I was like, what is that?
And I looked over the fence and a kid was like digging with a little spade,
just playing.
And I was like, oh, I can hear all of that.
Yeah.
So they would have got the full Book of Mormon.
Because were the ranch sliders open?
No.
No, pull the ranch sliders.
Okay, well, you shut those.
Well, that's nice of you.
The house was built in the 80s and I'd say that glasses,
not double glazed.
It had that brown 1980s New Zealand aluminium joinery.
Oh, yeah.
That everybody's mum and dad had when they had a new joinery in the 80s.
Because I woke up in the morning and saw show tunes in the group chat.
I was like, wow, okay, there's going to be some hungover people today.
And then I said, I'm off to bed and I took myself off to bed.
And Sade said, I think I need to sit outside.
So she went and got some fresh air outside.
In her words to get her shit together.
And then Hayley and Aaron went to bed and...
Stop it.
And what?
I didn't hear anything, but Sade tells me some raucous love makers.
Oh my God, you made love in the Airbnb with hear anything, but Sade tells me some raucous love makers. Oh, my God.
You made love in the Airbnb with Vaughn and Sade next door?
I was literally like, in the room next door,
if Aaron could reach through a wall, he could have put his hand back
and I could have reached my hand out and we could have held hands.
I believe the walls were as thin as the glasses.
I know.
I was out for it.
Oh, my God.
I would have done a little,
no offense,
but I would have probably
done a little vomit.
Oh.
I know.
It would have been like
hearing your sister have said,
no.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I don't know.
We just got carried away.
We just got carried away.
It was also one point.
Yeah,
I was like,
I didn't hear a thing
and Sade's like,
I heard it.
What did Sade say?
Any like,
did she say it sounded good or what?
She said the animal noises
were weird, but to each
their own. She wasn't here to yuck someone's
yarm. I'm so sorry.
I'm really apologising. I'll tell you what
I said. Vintage pornography.
We were all rocked up. Everybody got a bit
rocked up. Everyone was a bit rocked up.
Like a vintage pornography in Lion Red
and you tell me you're not getting down to business.
Oh, no.
Wow.
Yeah.
Sorry, Sade.
And was it awkward in the morning when you saw Sade?
No, she didn't care.
And Vaughn didn't hear and it was fine.
I mean, we were happy.
It was the most action she got all weekend.
Sade.
Yeah, she can.
Well, yeah, only because your friends were in the room next door
and that would have been weird.
Yeah, it would have been weird.
It's such a weird thing to do.
Why would you do it?
Why would you do it?
Yeah, when they were literally at arm's length.
Yeah.
No, it's too much.
And then the next morning,
the guy who literally could have reached out
and patted you on the head during your lovemaking
cooks you breakfast.
Wow.
It was nice actually.
He's romantic.
I was woken up
by the other guy
and offering to cook me a brekkie.
Yeah.
So I sort of got everything
I wanted but from two different guys.
Why not?
Isn't that polygamy?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, it sounds great.
One makes breakfast
and all the other,
yeah. Well, we were singing the Book of Mormon,
so it all adds up.
It really does.
Instagram, my social media platform of choice.
In fact, it's almost the only one I use anymore.
Right.
I'm done with X and I don't use Snapchat.
I don't use, I'm an Instagirly and there's a new
feature that is
sort of drawn from
a feature that already exists called
Close Friends, right?
Yeah. Which is you can
do stories and select
a group of people that see it. And they've kind of
changed that now so you can have other groups as
well. Yeah, right.
Yeah.
So, Shannon, this is called Flipside.
Yeah, and I'm super excited about it.
So how does it work?
It's basically like an extension of Close Friends.
So it's starting to roll out across the world.
And what it'll be is when you head to your Facebook, your Instagram feed,
you'll see a little key in the bottom right corner.
Okay, I'm going to see if I've got it.
No.
Where about, is it by the profile picture,
by your profile picture?
When you're like on your own page.
So you're looking at your own profile.
Okay, you know, I don't have it yet.
I don't have it yet.
So a little key will show up hopefully in the next few weeks.
And basically when you click that,
it'll take you to the flip side
and it'll flip your Instagram around
and you can now post to your close friends.
So instead of just being able to do close friends stories,
you can kind of create a second Instagram within your own account.
So maybe this would be good for people with bebes.
Yes.
And if people, if our friends get it, I don't need to be on the flip side with you.
Yeah, there you go.
Do you know what I mean?
I just want to see your fun fashion things and not your baby all the time.
How can you hide someone's flip side?
Like, that's a perfect example.
Someone has a baby and they're incessantly posting and we don't care.
I think they've added you to their flip side.
So you're kind of trapped on the flip side.
Could you decline the flip side?
I don't believe so.
I think once you're on it, it's like close friends.
Like, you'll just see their story.
Right, okay.
But this is for, like, a lot of people like myself.
When we were younger, we all had Finsters,
which was a second Instagram account.
You would only have your close friends following you.
You'd post, like, when you got sloshed on the weekend,
like, that kind of stuff.
Your mum wouldn't be following that one.
I used to post quite publicly when I sloshed on the weekend,
to be fair, but I know what you mean.
I think this is quite a cool feature.
Yeah, it's going to be good fun.
It means you can kind of keep a public profile still
and then still use it for fun, more candid posts,
and it's all in one account.
It'd be good for you because you like to get political
with all of your act posts.
Yeah, I do.
So you could do that on your flip side.
No, I think I'm going to keep that on the main feed
where I've got followers.
How am I going to get the word out?
Yeah.
Otherwise,
on my political point of view.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I also think, you know,
like everyone's debating Trump
at the moment
and I just reckon,
you know, maybe...
Some people don't get the sarcasm.
I don't know.
Okay, yeah.
Please, please, no.
So you'll have to choose
who's on your flip side
just like close friends.
Yes, yeah. Okay. Do I have to do this? No. I'm not going to do it. Well, So you'll have to choose who's on your flip side, just like close friends. Yes, yeah.
Okay.
Do I have to do this?
No.
I'm not going to do it.
Well, you don't have to.
I mean, I'd love to see what's on your flip side.
That sounds like hard work.
But maybe on your flip side,
you could just put all the stuff in your garden doing things.
Yeah, do you know you put your nurture out there?
Oh, dungeons, dungeons.
I'm in the dungeons with all my dragons and that stuff.
What is on the...
Yeah.
No, but then we're still going to see that.
No, but...
Oh, but you don't add us to that.
Yeah, you could just make your flip side like a nerd thing.
But we're his, like, main people.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Though we did learn last week that Vaughn prefers the company of his kids than us.
It's just still shaking me.
It's still shaking me to my core.
It is wild.
Anyway.
It is absolutely wild.
Like if he could choose to spend time with people.
He chose them.
He would choose his children.
Which is so wild.
Yeah, anyway, crazy.
Oh, well, keep an eye on your phone.
He has it quite far down the list, if you want to know.
Like if we're doing top 10.
Really?
Yeah, I mean, if we're doing top 10, one of you makes it.
Do you even think we're going to be on the flip side?
I'm new. Do you think we're're going to be on the flip side?
I don't think you'll be on the flip side.
I'm not doing the flip side.
This is crazy.
Every day that passes, I want to spend less time
doing anything social media related.
It's not good for you.
Okay, so what is it?
I know Kylie Jenner makes me feel poor.
Yeah. Kylie Jenner makes... And Kendall Jenner makes me feel poor. Yeah.
Kylie Jenner makes...
And Kendall Jenner makes me feel fat.
Yeah.
And Kim Kardashian makes me feel sorry for her sometimes.
Yeah.
They've each got their own sort of sin attached to them, don't they?
Yeah.
God, you're going down a bit of a bleak spiral, babe.
You all right?
It's the social media.
It's the social media.
It's the social media. It's the social media. It's the social media.
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM.
Fact of the day, day, this week's Fact of the Day is Origin Week.
We look at terms that we just use or partake in every day and don't really think about the origins of them.
Now, this came to me yesterday on the drive back from the Bay of Plenty
when we were passing through Matamata.
Oh, gorgeous.
You went that way.
And their main street is called Broadway.
Oh, yeah.
A lot of Broadway's all over the place.
Newmarket's got a Broadway, Newmarket and Auckland.
Because of the, like, all the shows are on Broadway.
All of the theatre shows.
Yeah, the theatre.
Well, no, they're not.
No, they're not.
Not in New Zealand.
Yeah, they are, but they are. Well, Palmerston North's got a Broadway, doesn't it? Yeah, exactly. So, Casey then. Yeah, and it's got the theatre shows. Yeah, the theatre. Well, no, they're not. No, they're not. Not in New Zealand. Yeah, they are, but they are.
Well, Palmerston North's got a Broadway, doesn't it?
Yeah, exactly.
So Case and Point.
Yeah, and it's got the theatre on it.
Is it Case and Point?
Case and Point.
Is that the origin of Case and Point?
Do that one one day.
It's a good one.
Case and Point.
Remember when I, because I today coined a phrase.
All roads lead to Rome.
Rome.
Yeah.
So the origin of that was me trying to describe how you get to a place
and eventually if you keep going, you'll get there.
And you just made that up today.
Very similar to Rome, which is all the roads are linked.
Amazing.
So then I was like, all roads lead to Rome.
Well, no.
Broadway in Matamata and Palmerston North and Newmarket
are not named after Broadway in New York. Yep. In Matamata and Palmerston North and Newmarket are not named after Broadway in New York.
Oh.
Is it because it's quite a Broadway?
Bingo.
Like it's wide.
They're wide streets.
Wider streets.
So when old New York was once New Amsterdam.
Did you know that?
New York used to be called New Amsterdam.
Yeah, because of that hospital show.
No, the hospital show is called New Amsterdam because of the fact that the Dutch used to be in charge of New York,
that area of America, and then the British took over.
And it had been called the equivalent of the Gentleman's Way.
But when the British got there, they said,
man, this road is wide.
This is a wider road than we need.
It is a broad way.
Okay.
It is a broad, like the way meaning road and the broad meaning wide.
And so they renamed it
a broad way.
A broad way.
Oh yeah,
this is a broad way.
Yeah,
this is a broad way.
But then it lost a
and just became broad way.
I'm heading down to
a broad way.
All of the broad ways around
aren't named after
let's chuck a theater on there
and hope it can replicate
New York's broad way.
Right.
It is literally,
they are the widest road in town.
Often built wider than the
requirement was at the time of building. Right.
Definitely the
Broadway's I know are broad.
So that, our Broadway in
New York was. Just became Broadway.
And that is still Broadway today.
That is still Broadway today. Yeah, right. Where the theatres
were built, because the road
was wide enough to handle the extra traffic that would be brought to the area. Yeah, right. Where the theatres were built because the road was wide enough to handle the extra traffic that would be brought to the area.
Yeah, right.
For seeing the theatres.
They couldn't put it on narrow streets because that would cause congestion.
Yeah, right.
So they started putting more of them on the main street.
Oh, that's bloody good.
Yeah.
So today's fact of the day is Broadway,
and you might hear like Broadway musicals and It's the Place to Be, Broadway.
There's a song about Broadway by Barbra Streisand.
Is that right?
Did she sing that song?
I don't know.
I don't know.
See, that's the kind of stuff you can put on your flip side.
Facts about Barbra Streisand.
Barbra Streisand.
Yeah.
Streisland.
We don't need to hear about that.
Keep that for your flip side, thanks.
It's all because the street was wide, and when the British took over New York,
it was like, it's a broad way.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Yeah. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Okay, so there was a couple that was out and about in Australia.
Yeah.
And they were at a dance party.
Yeah.
And then they met a woman and they decided they would like to take this woman home and have a little menage a trois.
To join them in the boudoir.
To join them in the boudoir and have a little bit of fun, consensual adult time.
Okay.
As a trio.
Yep.
Now, the woman who was picked up by this couple has shared what happened on that night.
Okay.
Because it wasn't the lovemaking session
that was the most interesting part about it.
Right.
As they were sort of warming things up a little bit
and having some kisses and some light frottage,
the couple started to argue quite a bit about, you know,
what you're doing right and wrong
or the attention
that they're getting and that kind of stuff.
And it got so bad that
while this woman was naked
in between them,
they broke up.
They had a fight so bad
that they decided to absolutely call
it, had a massive argument
and then split up.
Okay, was one of them not happy to be doing the...
That should have been discussed.
I mean, I'm sure there's communication that needed to have happened there, right?
So that's the worst bit as well.
Well, part of it is the woman who's caught in the middle of this,
because the communication is breaking down so badly,
she sort of becomes a mediator in the middle of it.
And it's like giving messages
and whatnot and is trying to like
translate and help. And I'm imagining
maybe naked.
The worst bit, she's naked, they're not yet.
So she's there
and then at some point she says, I think I might put
my bra on.
And then they're
just going for it. What a wild story.
She becomes, yeah, she becomes this like
mediator. Yeah.
And then, so she's in the middle and they're breaking
up. Yeah. And then
she's like, well, I guess I'll just leave. Yeah, she's like
I'm going to leave. And then the woman
from this couple
says, no, please don't.
I want him to leave. I just want to talk
to you. And then they end up having like a D&M,
the two girls about, you know, how he's just let me down.
We're not a D&M when you're hoping to get older.
Yeah.
It's not what she signed up for.
You want the D and you end up with the M as well?
No, no.
Anyway, so she ended up leaving
and she shared this with, you know, online and whatnot.
And it's just, I couldn't imagine being in the middle of a worse breakup than that.
Yeah.
And being absolutely stuck in it.
So that's what I want to know.
Okay.
Is have you been caught in the middle of someone else's breakup?
It's worse when it's like, even these people were strangers to her.
It's worse when they're strangers because you have no vested interest in either party.
Yeah.
You're not trying to help or be like, hey guys, you know, you're just like, I'm just trying to live my life.
Can I just leave?
Yeah.
You guys sort this out.
I'd even feel embarrassed doing that in front of someone.
Oh, yes.
You know, like, wait till they leave and then break up.
I always think this.
I'm the kind of person that if I decided I didn't want to get married on the wedding day, I'd go through the wedding and just deal with it afterwards.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Same with a breakup.
If I was in the public space or if I was in the middle of a threesome,
I'd just be like, fine, I will dump you afterwards.
We'll deal with this later.
Yeah.
But, okay, so have you been in the middle of someone else's breakup?
Maybe you were in public and it was happening,
like maybe you were on public transport.
Oh, my God, public breakups are so embarrassing.
Maybe you were at a party and you're just trying to have a nice night and a couple of drinky-poozies.
It happens at parties because, you know, people
get a bit boozed. Were you at the wedding? Yeah.
Things come out. Things do come out.

You've been in the middle of somebody
else's breakup and you've been like,
the
awkwardness that goes with. I don't want to go
on air, reads this text, but my husband
walked into our bedroom at the wedding venue
between ceremony and reception to find
my cousin and her husband in the midst of
their proper breakup. Oh, gosh.
Walking in and then you're sort of like,
your home are into the bush. Yeah. Yeah, back, back, back, back, back. On the way to church, not the day. Walking in and then you're sort of like, you're Homer into the bush.
Yeah.
Yeah, back, back, back, back, back, back.
On the way to church with my cousins,
my auntie and uncle had a huge argument on the drive-in.
It reached its crescendo as we pulled into the parking lot.
But they went quiet the minute the doors opened,
walked into church like nothing had happened.
And as soon as we were back in the car after church,
the doors shut and they hit resume on their argument
and just carried on yelling.
And then what broke up?
Yeah, they're divorced now.
Oh, wow.
Oh, dear.
They're divorced now.
Somebody said,
I work in the paint part
of Mitre 10.
And she kept asking him
lots of questions
about coloured paint.
And then he said,
he didn't care.
We've all been here.
We've all been here.
I bet somebody said, white is white. Yeah. Oh, my God. There's so been here. We've all been here. I bet somebody said white is white.
Yeah. Oh my god, there are so many whites.
Spanish white, egg white.
That's just white though. Half tea, quarter tea.
She then screamed at him that she was doing all the work
in the renovation and he screamed at her, well I'm paying
for it all and then
it was, yeah, really blew up. Yeah, renovations
are easy going, aren't they?
Nothing's made us stronger.
Famously united. Famously united.
Famously united.
Nothing has brought us together well.
Other than a wedding.
A little bit of rugby.
I work in an early childhood centre.
We've had parents have it out in the car park before
to the point where we've had to go out and be like,
you're screaming.
Your kid's in the back seat.
You're screaming at each other.
All these other kids can hear you screaming.
Please, like, and yeah, one
couple had, like, the last argument
and then that was it.
Yeah, they'd separated.
And someone said, working in retail, I've seen
more than a fair share of big arguments
and a couple of breakups when
someone's trying on clothes and their partner's
just not saying the right words. I will say it's a
heightened moment trying on clothes. the person, their partner's just not saying the right words. I will say it's a heightened moment trying on clothes.
I suspect this texter was trying on jeans.
That's all I'm going to say is I suspect this texter was trying on jeans
and then you need certain affirmations when it's a jean shop day.
I was just trying to help with a larger size.
And I thought you meant fat like pH.
Yeah.
Because you don't look fat.
Yeah, right. No, that's not what you say. I reckon just don't say that at all. Yeah. Because you don't look fat. Yeah, right.

I reckon just don't say that at all.
