from the ZM Podcast Network. This is Fleshwood and Haley's Big Pod. Brought to you by Chemist Warehouse. The biggest brands of the lowest prices. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fleech Fawn and Haley. Happy Monday. God, it's nearly July.

A couple of days, it'll be July. The year is flying. July. Now, on the show today, we've got a double pass to five sauce. So, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, every day a double pass. We're going to play three and five.

we'll give you five seconds to name three things. Like, Haley, name three fruit. Go. Pineapple, peach, pear. You did it. All with peas as well. It actually just helps to sort of narrow the mind. Right, onto just one letter.

Yeah, rather than all the fruits of which there are many. Right, okay. So I found that personally helpful. But if you said something more difficult, like, you know, parts of a lawnmower, and I said, I'm only going to do pee, I'd be pucked, you know. You would be. Well, your chance to call through for five sauce tickets

this morning after 8.30. Do you have to name five things? Three and five. Three in five. Okay, name three curries. Butter chicken, butter chicken. The only ones ever orders. Those are the only ones I ever get.

I don't need a branch out. Stop teasing me. Oh, live a little, get a coma. No, why would I, when there's a butter chicken right there? Come on, little, get a little cormer in you. There's a butter chicken right there. The top six four, coming up.

Yeah, Brittany Spears' son is walking Paris fashion. Sons is, plural. Sons are. Sonsa Stark is walking Paris fashion week. Now, take yourself back in time, 25 years. That would seem like an insane headline. I will be taking us 25 years into the future from now for some insane celebrity headlines from 2050.

Okay, Vaugh, name three Britney Spears songs, go. Toxic, the one in the school uniform. Four, five times up. You're out. You're not going to five seconds of summer. Oh, man. Top Sixth is coming up. Next one on the show, though.

There is a GoFundMe that has been launched to help a gentleman who suffers with something, the world's smallest, actually. Oh, okay. Yeah, we can all help out. Play that ends, Fleshhorn and Haley. Listen, you know, we need to support people when they are in need. and those that have a bit to give should when people need it, like Michael Phillips. Who was over the weekend Snapchat guy, an Australian chick?

Oh yeah, Miranda Kerr. Did you see what they've been doing? No. They've been like paying people's medical bills. Oh, that's not. Wow. Not just like a couple. Just like millions and millions of dollars worth.

I think they've got a, what do you call it, not a charity foundation or something? Yeah, right. I was reading that over the weekend. Spiegel. Evan Spiegel. Who's a billionaire, right? Because Marantica and billionaire husband White, $550 million in medical debt for thousands. So, like, that's half a billion dollars.

Do you know, it's so funny. It's like, when Elon Musk is like, who can help the world, someone tell me? Like, just do a little, like that. Yeah, like he literally could. It's like changing life. That's amazing. Well.

It says a lot about these people, eh? Let's just see. Holy shit, that was just, that was 260,000 people in California. Two hundred and a quarter of a million people. Yeah. Wow. Oh my God. So then they just walked into the medical debt office.

Went like that. I said, yeah. Imagine. Here's my credit card. Well, maybe they can help out Michael Phillips. Okay. Michael Phillips, he's sort of internet known. If you haven't heard the name,

maybe you're looking in the wrong side of the internet because Michael Phillips was diagnosed with a micro penis, which is not just a small willy, but like it's a medical. Yeah. It's like a nub. Do you think that would be, Your easiest 15 minute appointment of the day

If you're a doctor, your consult, your easiest 15... That's micro. Like, what... Well, I think I might have a small penis. Well, let me wrap my eyes around this. That's micro. And then that's it. $60, please.

You're really always, like, so late, the doctors. Yeah, I know. I know. I could literally identify a micropanus a moment I saw it. So he's actually, not only with a micropanus, which is, you know, it happens, um, the smallest in the world.

Like it's, Is that a Guinness record? I don't know that Guinness rat their eyes on it. But I think on measurements, I don't know if it's Guinness. Right. Michael Phillips, smallest penis in the world. He's like... Does he say how small?

Hang on. Michael Phillips, I should have this. Michael Phillips penis length. This is just for research up top. And they're going to see that I'm searching this. So it's under a centimeter, fully erect. My goodness. Under a centimeter, fully erect.

They call that a clitoris, don't they? I was going to say. Wouldn't even get past the lips. It's too early. To say that on the radio. And then this is the perfect time to say clitoris on the radio. And also it's a body part. Grow up, please.

Yeah, grow up. They honestly wouldn't pass the menorah majora, to be fair. Do you know what I mean? Let alone. The menorah majora is there to keep these sorts of things out. The depth of it is far more. It's 0.97. So why does he, why does he need Alphan raising help?

How is he going to get an enlargement on that? Yeah, I don't think even Spiegel and Miranda Kerr can help this. Oh, no, no, half a billion dollars. There is such procedures for penis enlargements, but they're very risky. And it's more for people that may be rocking, you know, a 10 centimetre, and we might be able to get a little bit more on that. You wouldn't need an enlargement if you got a 10 centimetre. I've lost perspective. I've got to be honest.

Surely. Surely. How much is a low for Brett? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's like a politician in an election yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She doesn't know the price of milk. I don't know, is that?

Okay. So he was like, this is, you know, I can't be working with this. Decided to go for an enlargement surgery, but that's off the table. There's just not enough to work with. Because how do they enlarge it? Do they stretch it or something?

Yeah, that's what I... And they fill it up and maybe they put a little bit of extra skin on there. Did they add a tunnel or something? But then how wide is it? So this is the thing that he, it's... It is a clitoris. You know what I mean? It's like the end of your finger.

You're a nub. So you couldn't even pop another person's penis on the top because it would be like trying to graft a Cody tree onto an apple tree. You're one of your big thick nipples. It'd probably be bigger than this. Excuse you. What are your discs? I'm a huge fat.

One of your big, Harry's. One of your big. He's, you. So, anyway, so he was like, I'm going to do this. And then when they were like, you'll just lose any, because he's got sensation on it. It's just like, you'll lose it. So he's like, I don't need a massive penis.

I just wanted a bit more workable, something in a pinch. Yep. So he started a go fund me, $3,500 goal. And the donations are around like $20,000 US dollars at the month. So he's fast a pastor, but instead he's going to put a little bit of it to words. Little bit in what? Little bit of, it wouldn't even get past the menorah. He's going to get injections to girth it a bit.

Right. And then the rest of it, he's going to donate to other sort of, you know, people in need of a bit of enhancement. Yeah. Good God. Yeah. He's like, yeah, I'm just going to be smart with this. I'm not going to try to get it longer. I'm just going to juice it up a bit.

So he can work with her. Right, okay. Well, if you'd like to make a donation, go fund me. Yeah, go fund me. Just look up. He's an American man. Just look him up and, you know, just how he's 38 years old. He's handsome.

Yeah. He's just rocking, less than a centimeter. Mm. And thoughts and prayers to him. Play ZN's Fletchhorn and Haley. From the Fletchhorn and Haley group chat, this is the top six. Okay, well, I was completely wrong. Sean, Brittany Spears's son, Sean Preston, is 20 years old,

and Jaden James is 19 years old. Now, they are the kids that she had with Kevin Ferdeline. Fertilizer. Fertilizer. Kevin Fideline. Yeah. Ferdeline. You know this name.

Ferdeline. You're saying Frens Ferdeline. Who was the tennis player? Roger Fetter. Feter. Feter. Different people. What is that clothing brand?

in New Zealand, Federation. Gotcha. Just getting my F places. Get a F-based. So that worked in Paris Fashion Week. And everyone's like, God, we're old.

Yeah. Because we can remember when she had them. I thought they were doing than that. Yeah. And they've had a very tense relationship as of late. They were from her public

behavior. I think they distanced themselves from her for a while. Yeah. But I believe maybe some of that's in repair. Right. Well, they've walked, And this is insane.

So I thought, based off this, let's look forward to the year 2050. And look at the top six celebrity headlines from the year 2050. Oh, I love this. Okay. Because Rudy Spez's Sons, Walking Paris, Fashion Week is obviously insane to those of us who remember the early 2000s. Yeah, of course. Number six on the list of the top six 2050 celebrity headlines. Beyonce's Grand Order purchased this is the son and renames it after her grandmother.

Wow. You can buy the son then. She's worked out of the loophole. In 25 years you probably could. You know, everything's for sale. Well, they're going to be advertising in space soon. Oh, pass off. Oh, they've talked about this.

What, like drone shows. Yeah, or like just light kind of advertising. Oh, no, don't do that. Yeah. Oh, how embarrassing. How embarrassing for us as a species. Number five on the list of the top six, celebrity headlines from the 2050. Taylor Swift's daughter announces she's re-recording the re-recordings.

Oh. Taylor's daughter's version. Yeah. Of Taylor's version. Right. What will she be called? Travis and Taylor, Triniqua. Triniqua's version.

Matt Damon's grandson perfects cold fusion, ending the global energy crisis over night. Wow. So we didn't go into the career of entertainment? No. He went more science-based.

well, I could do that math. And then he did and that he perfects cold fusion. Yeah. Number three on the list of the top six celebrity headlines from the year 2050. Jacob Allorty's daughter becomes the first celebrity to move to the moon. Oh, okay. Neppo, baby. Yeah, because she's rich. Yeah, she got on the flight. Yeah, she got on the, because she's rich.

Civil engineering and light rail manufacturer. Lovely. And then he got it done. Yeah. Let's face it, that's the most farcical of the law. Yeah. Yeah. Light rail and now 24 years. Don't think so. That's the day's stop.

The ZN podcast network. This is a short reel. Play ZN's Fleshhorn and Haley. Now, if I know something, it's how to make a relationship last. Well, you did have a long one. I did, yeah, 14 years. We're all good.

I did well. Not a failure of success in my eyes. But if you want to have a long-lasting relationship, and this is the same. We talked about this in relation to friendship. What makes a strong friendship is the ability to laugh at each other and poke fun. It's like basically a soft roasting.

Yes. So relationship therapists have said this absolutely makes a romantic relationship thrive, roasting each other. Yeah. calling each other out, making fun of each other. Because it alleviates the seriousness of like picking at each other. You're just going like, we're just having fun.

I'm just going to give you a little roasting. Yeah, if you're not roasting your friends, you don't love them. No, but you're a romantic partner. You've got a little roast. You've got to roast them too. As soon as they walk in the door, start picking them to bits. Oh, I don't know about that. You know what do you call that out for your useless brag?

What do you do today? Absolutely nothing. I don't think that's what they mean. I think it is. I'll go out on a limb here. I reckon that's not what they're. Yeah. When they're roasting.

At what point does it come too far? You've gone too far, Haley. So, for me, it's, I'll always make it known when Fun Haley's left the room. You always say, Fun Haley's left the room. Cool. Got to let you know if Fun Haley's left the room. And that's when we'll stop the roasting because I'm known to sort of, sort of be, you know, sensitive. You don't say it.

I'm going to die. Yeah, you don't say it too much. No, but the moon. Have you noticed the moon? The moon's been today. She's nearly full. Because I slept for two hours last night. So I would say today, don't roast me.

Was that the moon's fault or the fact that you were up late drinking? I wasn't drinking. Oh, I just had some celebratory champagne with family. Okay. I was having some champagne, but no, I know I wasn't drinking late last night. I just, I think I had a big fun, busy, boozy, boozy week. Yeah. The moon's fault.

And the moon... God damn moon. Drew it to me. Yeah. But yeah, this therapist did say, like, you've got to read the room. Like, it's fun until it's not fun. A light. That's what we call it light roasting.

Yeah, so I would, like, if we were in a partnership, I'd roast you, Fletch about your mince in the fridge or you know what I mean. Oh, you're bloody. You're always wearing the same colors. Wait, what? Am I always wearing the same? Wait. Or is it grey black or blue?

Fun fletcher's left the room. Great. That's all that's all. That's all. Hey, you wear the same three colours. Fair call. Funfleches left the room. Yeah, right.

And Vaughn for you, a light ribbing. If we were together, I'd be like... Your pissy-colored white t-shirt? I haven't worn the pussy-color white t-shirt, but... That one's getting pissy. That one's getting pissy. Oh, God damn it. This white thing is lit.

Do you have bleached at all? Do you separate your whites from your colours? Uh, yeah. Not like religiously. Maybe you should. You can tell. Do you think I should? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because it really offsets that face. You know, the face. And then if we were together, a light roasting would be like, you'd be like, hey, babes, like tonight's. You know, why we have a little bit of a canoe? I'll be like, not with a face like that. That face clearly says you don't have sex. That's what you, that would be a light roast.

Yeah, that's where the base. Little fun, we just have fun as a couple. Yeah. Ooh, you may get away from me. Go sleep in a different bedroom. Yuck. Ooh, you're repugnantful. Roasting.

I think that seemed quite heavy, Haley. That was quite a heavy roasting. Was that? Yeah. Okay, do me, do me. It could not go wrong. No. Don't be a pussy.

I was waiting for it. I'm what I simply won't. Absolutely not. I simply won't. You got a stain on your hoodie. We've actually got three stains there. One, two. Oh, okay.

That's stone. I think that's egg yolk from like a week ago. That's as far as I'll go. I'm not doing it. I don't want to. She said you could. I'm open. I'm actually.

him. I don't want it. I don't want to. I can think of a mean thing to say. Don't be a pussy. Don't be a pussy. I'm having fun. Don't think me like no. I'm having fun. Go on do something about my mingy face or something. Go deal. I don't want to. I don't want to. No, I know, I know, but I don't want to. I'm an embarrassing wiki. You're a weakie. I'm weak little bitch. How do we go back to roast him for chapter two? I don't know. But if you listen, if you're listening to this right now. I don't think you can roast. I don't think so. Here's some great relationship advice

From a woman who has never screwed up a relationship Ever in her life Roaster. If you're in a relationship today And things are not feeling great Get in there and just start picking and digging. Roast, roast, roast. The more brutal the better and that'll fix it. The ZDNs Podcast Network

Play ZDN's Fletch forne and Haley. Fletch fun and hate. So silly, silly, silly, that is silly Little Pole today, how do you prefer to watch sports? Live in person or on the television? Why does it really go live, to be fair? It's been a long time. Yeah, I think basketball is one of the best live sports.

Why? Because you're a bit closer? I think you're a bit closer to the atmosphere. But then, yeah, whereas like rugby, you can be like down the other end of the field and you're missing it all. Cricket, you can't see the ball. Golf? God, you know, they had it down. and then you can't see anything.

Where did it go? Where did it go? Whereas TV, you get the replays, you get everything. I love a pub. I love like a big game, All Black's game or something, and everyone's in the pub, big screens. Sabrina Carpenter was seen at the Germany, Ecuador beating Germany too. So it's all go.

So she was high up in the stands with her cute little binoculars, which someone gave her? It's like, what's the point? She's Sabrina Carpenter, too. I think she would get a better seat. Well, I think it was one of those VIP boxes, like a corporate box. Corporate Box is famously kind of the worst view. Yeah.

You are the perimeter of that thing. Some, well, the results were 65% of people said on television, 35% said live in person, please. Did you see Channing Tatum dresses of Viking? I did not see Channing Tatum dresses of Viking. How was Channing Tatum after he embarrassingly sort of admitted that he was still in love with Zoe Kravitz? I don't know.

Probably okay. I'm subscribed from his weekly newsletter. Did you? Yeah, they used to be a regular at Channing Tatum's weekly newsletter. Dot com. Yeah. At Channing Tatum. Slash weekly newsletter.

Andrew messaged in saying, I'm a Kiwi living in Vancouver and I'd love to have gone to the all-whites matches we hosted in the city, but the ticket prices were astronomical. Yeah. So instead, for each game, we took over an Irish bar and watched it on the big screen, arguably a bit of vibe than in the stadium and far cheaper with the pints. Yeah. Also, you get a creamy pie if you're an Irish bar.

I get a guinea. I've never been to a stadium that serves Guinness. No. Imagine waiting all those people, we've got to wait for it to sit. Yeah, it's not a stadium drink. It's not. Casey said if I watch sport I do live,

I do 10% watching of the sport, 90% watching of the other people who are at the sport. Yeah, it's a real people watching thing, eh? It is. It is. Distractions, actually. It really is. Tash said, TV, I get sick of beer cans thrown at my head.

I don't know if that's just her specifically. He's got a very throwable head. Well, so where can you go. now that give you a can. It's all in a little plastic cup. They will give you the plastic cups now. Spill everywhere. I miss the days when people got hit with cans.

It was the best. B bottles, yeah. Just throw a keg. Chuck a keg. Alicia said life is good in... Live is good in theory, but on TV is much better. Angles, commentary. Food and shrinks are so much cheaper.

Plus no cue for the toilet. Rebecca, love the vibe of a waz game in person, but I like having the commentary and the camera angles on the telly. We went to the All Blacks game last year. That was fun. Yeah, I'm going to the All Blacks versus Ireland in a couple of weeks. Oh, that's fun.

That's right. You got invited by New Zealand rugby. I know, did you know. Corporate Box experience. Tell the people what you're going to wear. An Irish rugby jersey. You can't wear that. You've been invited by the All blacks.

A little bit of bait and teas. You can't wear that. Sacrilege, you've been invited as a guest. Yeah. As a while like we're a white tour wedding. It is. Right. It is.

It is. It is. The Irish. Yeah. Harriet says, what about not at all? Not an option Not at all Fine

Fiona not necessarily in person But do love a pub vibe With a few cheeky beavies So there you go That's technically under the TV we've discussed Love all the tech that comes With the TV watching I think about the sailing graphics

You wouldn't get those sailing graphics In real life No Someone message in Tracy message in Thank you so much Tracy Haley I don't know if you've ever been To a live NRL game But the thighs on those men

Are worth seeing live Oh yeah I love a thigh I love a stock Rugby's got your best thighs because the rugby's the scrum, you've got that power and the thighs, but then your NRL's got lovely thighs, slightly, ever so slightly smaller on average.

AFL, that's a leaner man. That's a football, that's a soccer player. No, no, no, no. The princess is prancing around with their little singlets on. Not for me. Not for you. No, no, you're a rugby or rugby league. Yeah, yeah.

Well, for the little poll, we ask how you prefer to watch your sports in 65% of you? said television please. The Fletchborn and Haley, big pod. So if you follow fashion influences in the UK and the United States, everywhere, really, around Europe and the bigger bits of the world. Russia. That's a huge bit.

I don't know. Because if you spread Russia over Pluto, it would be the same size. Really? No, I don't know. That's... It's making up planet things. I feel like I bought it. I bought it.

Is Russia. as big as Pluto. How big is Pluto? She's pretty tiny. Russia and Pluto have almost the identical surface area. Wow. So I told you got put in there one time and I didn't know what it was filed under. Now it's in here.

And now it's out there as well. Russia is the largest country on Earth covering 17.1 million square kilometers. That's a big year. And it is about 17.6 million square kilometers. Well, I don't know if this is in Russia. I don't really follow a lot of Russian media. God, it's like, you know, when you cut a bit of wrapping paper and just just a little bit short. So when you get a little chocolate foil.

Yeah, and that's when you turn the square present to the side, don't you? Point point, point. Yeah, yeah, that makes more use out of the paper. That's a Japanese thing there. God, we've really traversed the world. Please don't call me that. I will.

I'll. I'm talking about. Now, Vinted is what I'm talking about. This will mean nothing to you guys. Vinted. Have you heard of it? I've heard of it. So it's basically like our version.

And we interviewed the creative designer wardrobe, didn't we? The person who came up with it because of all the waste that people have of clothes that they bought on a whim or they don't fit anymore or everything. It's kind of like a big version of that. No, I just hold on to it. One day, I'll be that minuscule again, you know. No, I've actually been really good.

I've halved my wardrobe, I reckon, this year. Yeah, okay. Thanks to Patsy coming in and being like, this is outrageous. And also, can I have some room in your wardrobe? Because I live with you now. So Vinted is, it's massive. It's peer-to-peer marketplace, like eBay or like trade. me or like designer wardrobe,

but completely free for sellers. So you just list all your pre-loved fashion. Wait, so who, how are they making their money? Do they get a little commission on the sale? A buyer protection fee of 5% of the item. Right. So it's little like, yeah, you can pay a bit so that you don't get scammed, basically.

Right. And that it's all kind of buy the buy, and legal as opposed to marketplace, which is just like, howdy, wow, west. So the vintage is amazing because, I don't know, it's just always has better stuff and it's been everywhere and now it's coming to Australia on July 1st, a couple of days away.

I had a little like sneaky soft launch like the site's there but there's no listings or anything up for grabs yet. Right. And people are just getting in there and putting on their stuff and apparently New Zealand's next. Vint it. Really? But could you even now do they ship from America or?

I don't know if they do globe or ship it. It would be up to the cellar. I just googled Vinted and there was like something to do it. It said Auckland, New Zealand, there was only two listings and it just looked like somebody had put Auckland, New Zealand in the title. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But also, did you know, apparently, um, child smugglers are selling children on Vint. Yeah, so here's the scandal. What? That was the number one thing when I googled Vinted. It's, it's currently like under investigation in some countries for people using like

clothing items with weird descriptions. Yeah. To sell traffic to sell trafficked children. So there's been like, they've had, huge scandals over the years. This, like, bioprotection only covers payment. Like, there was like, people were getting scammed, left-right and centre on Vinted because they're actual, their little tiny little buyer protection thing, instead of taking a fee, is pretty bad. And, uh, AI, people getting in there and fake buying and that kind of stuff, like,

using that. And then there were customer service, people were like, the customer service. And then people were like, and what about the child trafficking? And it is viral listings, plush toys priced into thousands of euros. Yeah, with weird. descriptions. Like there's an ad for a Harry Potter plastic figurine in which it said it's a 158 centimetres tall

and 13 years old. And it was like, what? But they, so Vinter did an investigation, internally and they were like, well, obviously they don't stand by that. They just want some, you know, want your bloody 90s Gucci items to go to a new home. Found that there was no credible trafficking

links and that they were deliberately fake by trolls trying to catch predators. So you know those sort of vigilant there, like the people on Instagram who are like, we're going to catch a predator. But they're not attached to any police or anything like that. They were doing that. Right.

Using Vinted and they're like, that's actually not. Like, just don't do that on here. Yeah, yeah. Love the intention, I suppose. And their German police looked into it, strong indications it was fake. So, you know, before we go saying that Vinter is doing child trafficking, they're not. It did have Pizza Gate energy.

Yeah, there's a bit of us. Yeah, yeah. Also, Coney 2012 as well, Texan, 96, 966. instant three dollar donation to find coney and get a speaker to He's still out there He's still out there The ZAM podcast network Play ZM's Flashfallen and Haley So Lord

Was marking the one year anniversary of Virgin Was that only a year ago? Yeah I thought the same thing I was like really already That's yeah okay Okay that was a year ago She dropped 49 demo skeletons on her site you know, like little bits and bobs of things

that maybe didn't make it and blah, blah, blah, blah. And with it, she sent fans like a big newsletter, a little update. And in it, here are the two things that are, I guess, the hot topic of conversation. One of them was that she has been an eating disorder recovery. So during the making of the album Virgin, she'd been recovering from a brief but long gestating eating disorder while recording the album.

She said it was just, you know, took its hold of her. I mean, she's, how old is she? She'll be like, 10 years, young though, 20. 20. 28? Howard's Lord. Race you. 29 years old.

29. 29 years old. I was just, you know, just thinking the bloody grips of the late 90s and early 2000s probably got its fingers into, you know, which is the eating disorder curse we're all blessed with. So she said that it was a bit of a struggle It was like short and she caught it And when I'm having a bit of a problem here

And the first thing she did was delete the My Fitness Power app Where you like log all your food Track track track out You've loved that app in the past haven't you? I've used it in the past It works. I do love it. It works if you need to lose weight

But she's never did. Oh no, she doesn't need to obviously I mean it just shows you how much you're eating And like people like me It's a shock It just holds you accountable for Yeah The little things you forget you eat

Yeah So her she said during Particularly that writing the song Shapeshifter And what was that She was working on believing that Breakfast was not a negotiation A necessity To feel her creative breakfast

She was skipping breakfast Yeah constantly All sorts Anyway so she feels The first time she's Open up about this And she's in a much better place But the second thing she revealed

That she has a PMDD Diagnosis So she, a friend of hers Notice she seemed to fall into An intense depression around her period. And then later's monther was later's monther? Months

later, wow, that was weird. You've had two hours sleep. I don't think it's chilling. She was diagnosed of PMDD which is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome, PMS. We're all like, I'm getting a bit grimy around my period. That is like nothing. Premiersful dysphoric

disorder, eh? Yeah, so it can make people in the lead up to their period, honestly become completely like with her, she was saying, completely different person. And it's not just like, say it was me, Haley but in a bad mood or Haley bit irritated. It's like a personality switch,

similar to bipolar, people can become suicidal, just like, lose it. Because that's the thing with the, I was reading the diagnosis that can be difficult. People might say, oh, you're bipolar. Yeah, or it could even be psychosis or something you're losing your mind or yeah,

severe depression. It's no, it's all hormonal. Is there anything you can do for that? Three to eight percent of women get PMDD. So when you're thinking to yourself, oh yeah, I get really grumpy. It's kind of like people saying with a headache, I've got a migraine. If you get PMS and you're like,

I think I've got PMDD. I think if you had PMDD, you would know. It just impacts everything. Increases suicide risk. You can't get out of bed. Imagine that every single month. So she's been diagnosed with her. And the treatment is like hormonal birth control,

antidepressants, medication, medication, medication. and then the general thing is learn to live with it. Seems to be something that's chucked around women's house quite a lot. Learn to live with it. It is, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I mean, good on her for opening up

because I think this would, like with any celebrity that shares something difficult. It's going to help a lot of people. Then her predominantly female audience would be like, oh my God, that might be me and then go and seek help. So good on, Lord. We love her. Play Z-N's flesh, one and Haley. I wasn't going to watch voicemails for Isabel.

Oh, God. because it's not my cup of tea. And usually those those sorts of movies don't have great ratings. Yeah, but cheesy. It was 7.4 on internet movie database, IMDB.com.

And I was like, that's pretty good. Not bad. Anything over seven, I think, is okay. And Rotten Tomatoes give it 84%. So I'd watch something if it had that rating. Same. Yeah. I'll give it a go.

Within minutes. Within minutes. I didn't know what it's about. I didn't know. Well, what is it? This is no spoiler. This isn't a spoiler, but Isabel is the sister who dies. And so sister Jill leaving her voicemails to keep her up to date with her life.

It's kind of the way she's working through grieving the loss of her sister. Who I did not know was dying of cystic fibrosis when it started. I was like, okay. And then they have really close sisters and she sticks up through when she's sick and people tease her and all of this sort of stuff. and then, yeah, she dies. And that was, like, pretty soon into it. It slayed the movie up. Like, you're like, well, these people seem to be having a lovely life together.

Dead! Yeah. And that was the start of it. And then it just continually just got me and got me and got me. Yeah, right. And then in the end, I was like, well, the end's going to be sweat relief. That was crying as well. Oh, God.

That really got me. It was good. That was one of those cathartic cries. Like, I just let it happen. I just let it have a, yeah. Yeah. I let the first one, I was just like, well, Like the first time in the movie that I got going,

I was just like, I'm just going to let this happen. Well, how many times did you get going? Like three or four? Geez. One at the start. And then one right at the end, those were the big ones. And then in between a couple of those leaky ones.

Yeah, yeah. You just get a little leaker. Get a little leaker. Because I came home, I think, Saturday night around 1 a.m. With a fill out of fish. To the hotel room. And I was like, I need something to watch.

And so I put that on. Yeah. So I'm a bit busy. I've got a beautiful fillet-o fish. Hot steamed balm. Steamed crisp. The fact that that is your number one burger choice is so off. It's a secondary burger.

I would say the Hwanganui McDonald's Philo Fish burger that I had at 1 a.m. was one of the top burgers I've eaten in my life. Really? It was fresh. Because no one orders them so they make them fresh. Anyway, I put that on thinking it would be a great background little movie. I'm watching along thinking, oh, this is great.

At 1 a.m. We're charming. we're jumping ahead and then suddenly I was like no, a bad choice Yeah, bad choice. Who puts it in a movie on? Cooktales? At 1 a.m.

Haley Sproul, when it's off, it went off. As soon as the filet of fish was done, I was like, I'm out, I can't watch that. I'm just want to sit here and cry? You know what to cry onto your filial fish? It's a freshly steamed bun and it's crisp. You'll moisten the crisp fish. I'll sog the fillet.

You don't want a sog the fillet. I don't want a soggy o fish. It's a really good movie. Do you recommend it? Yeah. Just like Amali and me, like, you know you're going to cry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, is it fold in our stars kind of, ash?

Just in terms of crying, I guess. As a father of two daughters, this one hit different. Oh, yeah, okay. Oh, yeah, as a mother of two daughters, I'm anticipated to be the same. Laughable? It actually, yeah, it is. I just couldn't imagine. I just think what I think about my girls growing up?

I don't know. They're babies and then they're not. And it's just, they're like little women now. I grow up before your very eyes. Yeah. There's no stop when I'm ready. Play ZM's, Flesh, Forne and Haley. How bad were you at your new job?

Like you were just like, this isn't for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, sorry, I thought I had the skills. I once had a friend that tried McDonald's and burn his fingers a couple of times. Wow, that's hot. The fries, maybe some other hot plant. And he was just like, you know what? This isn't for me.

And just walked. It's like good to not. You know? Yeah, it's just not for you. So a funny story. What was he burning his fingers on? I don't like the chips thing. Stop touching them.

Yeah, I don't, I think it's quite possible to do that job without burning yourself. The chips thing. I just keep trying to grab the chips out with my fingers. Yeah, the chips thing. This job's not for me. Use the scoop, you dof. So a funny, a funny story about a man that lasted three days at a scam syndicate. So, you know, these are these places and they operated a lot out of Southeast Asia.

This one was scamming Singapore. but they were based in Cambodia. Excuse you, a scamming syndicate. Yeah. So they're hiring for a scamming syndicate. Yeah, I've seen, I think 60 Minutes Australia did a piece on this last year, and they, yeah, they talked to the, they basically had these ginormous places. That's insane.

And they'll scam like us in New Zealand and people in other countries. I don't want to be scammed. I've been scammed. I know. I'll say too many times in my life already. So he joined the syndicate, and they, um, They fired him after three days because he couldn't scam anyone. Oh, you can't scam no one.

How shame. I, yeah, I wouldn't be able to. So the thing is that police busted this syndicate operating in this warehouse and they arrested him, even though he didn't scam anyone because he joined the syndicate. He's like, I didn't even do it. He was like, I didn't get anyone. I bet you were gonna. So apparently they, and they may have video called as well because they had like elaborate sets

to make it look like they were the Singaporean government. like suit and ties. They went all out and they would scam Singaporeans like for government kind of things. They'd say, oh, you owe this and. Anyway, they arrested 20 people. He was one of them, but he got 16 months in prison. Oh, shit. He didn't even scam anyone.

And he didn't even scam anyone. But yeah, he was fired after three days of bad performance. But yeah, I don't know. Maybe you tried a sales job. You couldn't get any sales. I'd be so good at scamming. I'd be, I'd be halfway through in the bill like, really? I'd be like, no, hang up quick.

Hello, Beatrice. How's your day going? This is Haley from this government department. Oh, well, thank you, Haley. I'm just calling on behalf of the government department to let you know that one of your payments hasn't gone through. And unfortunately, that will mean that you will not be entitled to your super anymore.

But anyway, I'm going to get that sort of view. What I'm going to need is your card details. Do you hate these things, Beatrice? Honestly, I know. Honestly, I'm going to get it caught. I'll be so good at me. Because it's acting. Yeah, it's just acting.

And niceness. Yeah. I'm brilliant at both of those things. Okay, so this is what we want to know. 0800,000. You can give us a call. Text through 9696. How bad were you at your new job?

Emma, how bad were you at the new job? Morena. Morena. I was working in Google advertising, and I started a new job. and I accidentally was advertising a petrol station in New Zealand to people in Turkey. Good shit. Hell yeah, you know those Turkish people love driving all the way down here with some of that sweet 91. And meanwhile in Turkey they're like, where is this Z?

Yeah, I can't find this, this you go. How long are it taking you to realize? Well, I was like going through the reports like a week after or something. I'm like, hmm, why are people who are Turkey clicking on these ads? And then I could have changed it. How much did you spend? I'm not actually too sure how much it spent, but like every click money that company was going to be.

So it's not great. Well, at least people in Turkey were clicking on the ads, so they were seeing it. Yeah, they were wanting what you were selling. I don't know how what, I'm it, Mehmet, Mustafa Yusuf. I'm not loving my content. Emma, that's so funny. Thank you. Jackie, how bad were you at the new job? Oh, pretty bad actually. I heard day one training at a bakery.

Yeah. How many images, buns, all that, fancy stuff. Yeah. Day two, about two and a half hours, and the manager's like, get it out, you can't make sandwiches fast enough. You're slow sandwich makers. You're a time you're an artist of sorts. Oh, yeah. Well, they would just like chuck a chunk of butter in a sandwich and call it, and I was like, no, just like two seconds

and spread it out. You know what, Jackie, the bakery industry needs people like you. Yes, because they put all the meat at the front for the display and then you get to the back half of that triangle. There's no mix. There's no filling. It's literally just bread.

I know, there's like five slices just in the middle cut and then there's nothing. It's bullshit is what it is, Jackie, and I'm glad you've blown the litter white off. Yeah, I'm with your fletch, I'm with you. Yeah, what an expose. Jackie, thank you. Ask some messages.

Lots of people who turns out a terrible. started an admin job, didn't know the difference between BCC and CC in email. Oh, well, one's private. Yeah, one's a blind CC. A cool CC. Yeah. You're always blind CC in management so they can see that you are dealing with this asshole as best you can.

Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you know what the asshole to know that. I do love a CC when people reply all and they forget people are in the thread and they start bitching about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I worked at a jewelers accidentally put a ring through as $100 instead of $1,000. $1,000, safe to say, I no longer work there the next day. Is that one of those things where it's like your mistake?

You've got to just wear it? Can you call the customer and be like, we undercharged you? We gave you 90% off? Yeah, we gave you literally 90% off. Oh, no. I was trying to drive to cover me for my deliveries. I'm a courier. And she wasn't very good at it.

She drove my van into a wall on her training day. Oh, God. Okay. Can you drive into a wall? I mean, maybe from parked, right? Yeah, or backwards into, you know, those walls are always thinking up behind you. Like, are, there's always a wall?

Where I am. Yeah. Bullards, walls, letterboxes, old people on mobility scooters. Oh my God, I know. Crunch over there, my mate. I've actually got one stuck in the back of my car. It's going to get you to give me a hand and pull it out after work.

Like a grill? It's in the grill. Yeah. God, it made a noise and I was driving at work. We are talking about when you were really bad at your job. When you first started. And maybe it didn't last long. No.

Well, guy, um, couldn't. scam so he got kicked out of the crime syndicate. But not before being arrested and being sent to prison for scamming even though he didn't scam anyone. Which is just, that's got to be the lamest crime in prison, right? You're there with all the crimes and they're like, what'd you do?

You're like, tried to scam. I didn't scam. I couldn't scam. Got caught not scamming. Yeah, but what are you in for? Because I couldn't scam. Yeah. But I was employed by the scammers. Some messages in, Fletch, you talked about your friend who chucked it in when they worked at Maccas

because they keep burning their fingers. For the record, every McDonald's worker burns their fingers because you have to press a patty into the grill. But you just get used to it. Don't you have your fingers? I thought you'd have a squisher. You wouldn't have a squisher. You wouldn't have a squishy and squire.

I'm actually very good friends with Grimmis. We went to school together. I'm going to make sure everybody gets a squisher. Everybody has a squisher. He actually dated Jacinda Rodin for a while. Oh, that's right. You remember? She didn't talk about that much.

No, no, no, no. I think that kind of had a bit of a, Messy come apart. I did a troll in an ice cream shop, but my first ice cream I tried to do the chocolate dip. Oh no. I didn't push the ice cream into the cone and it fell out. So then I screwed it out with my hands and put it back on

and they were just like, I don't think this is for you. No, I don't think that's for you. Okay, so that's dropping ice cream is one thing, right? You know, like, why do they say it's not for you? That's a learning curve. Yeah. This, however, I didn't balance a centrifuge properly. Now, that's the thing you put the test tubes in

and that thing goes like a son of a bitch. Separates the plasma from the blood or whatever else is in there. I was looking at an animal laboratory and I didn't balance the centrifuge properly. It blew up and caught fire. There was cow blood splatted everywhere. Oh my God. So the worst thing was those cows had already gone to the meat work so the samples couldn't be recollected. I don't know.

The part where there's cow blood everywhere in the labs on fire is pretty bad too. Just do some swabs on the wall. Swab the walls. Do some swabs. You'll get a few other things in it, but like, whatever, swam the walls. Someone said I was training to be a courier in my first soul. day, I went to somebody's house and there was somebody loitering outside and they

had a whole lot of deliveries. I dropped them off, the person signed for it. Turned out it was a robber. So the robber's like, yeah, I signed for that. Just get them all wrapped ready to go and they ripped off the house. They don't idea. No, and also, isn't it on that? Isn't it on the courier to pay for that parcel? Is it on them? Or do they have insurance? I don't know. I don't know.

Odd. Okay. Not great. I was learning to sell phones. An elderly man wanted my help to buy a phone. I thought, perfect, because he's not going to want anything too. Flash. Got him, ran him through the easier models. He's like, yeah, I'll take that one. I sold him the empty box.

That's all he needed. Because it had come out of that and it was on display and so this one must be good. I sold him an empty box. He came back hours later. He was quite upset because he thought he'd lost the phone. Oh, Grams. But I'd never put it on it. Oh, darling. A young man

we employed to work at the cafe at a a retirement village, thought it would be funny to go up behind residents and clap his hands really loudly and yell boo. All it ever did was make people scream and fall over and someone spilt their hot tea all over themselves. He didn't last long. What? What's he thinking?

Jesus, you'll give them a heart attack. You can't scare old people like that? Now, the update, there is a squisher at McDonald's, but they say the fingers still burn. They still burn. I just think you're using the squish or wrong. I think you're using the squishy wrong. Yeah, no. I would put your fingers on the other side of the squisher. The top.

Rather than between the squisher and the meat. Personally, that's how I'd go. That's how I'd use it. Actually, made Rubin sandwiches yesterday, and I used my personal squisher bought for me by my very good friend, Harley Sprowl. From the finest establishment, I would never buy my friend a junk. Timo.

Timo. It does a job. It does a job. I just used it yesterday, and I thought to myself, the right way to use this is not to use my swing this. Oh, no. My first job. A vet nurse.

I was taking a temperature from a dog. Oh no. His anal glands expressed like a spray into my mouth. Haley, it's breakfast time. I've smelled that stuff. Yuck. It's breakfast time. Yark.

Into the mouth. I think you should have to like, if you're ever going to kiss anyone ever again 9 to 4, you should have to sort of like let them know up front. It's like a real estate agent saying there was a murder in this house. You would have to say there's been dog anal gland excretion in my mouth. Or like a herpes take. knows you, you lads

will let you know before we do this. Yeah. I have got the herpes virus. I've got to let you know before we kiss. The ZM Podcast Network

Play ZM's Flesh, Forne and Haley. I made an executive administrative decision within my own life to enjoy a bit more whimsy. Oh, God,

we love it. Embrace the whimsy. Embrace a little bit of whimsy. Now whimsy looks different to everybody. But my whimsy on the weekend was go-karting. Oh, fun?

Yeah, it was fun. I've been since we all went together. I went to the same place. It's a good one, eh? It's a great one. Those electric carts, they hoof it. Now, I'm still on the leaderboard.

Too many corners. I just want to go straight real fast. Always turning the corners. Always turning the corners again and again, and then people are in your way. I just want to drive on a straight open road. That's the skill is to get past them. I don't like it.

I do want to take a go-cat. I do want to take a go-kart on the open road. Yeah, a go-kart down the desert road. How delicious would that be? No, I think it would get boring. Canterbury. The Canterbury planes. No, it wouldn't.

Canterbury planes Go under some trucks I'd love to drive a go-kart through suburban streets That would be fun Like in Japan Don't they go Do the Mario My parents did it

Yeah that would be fun It wasn't fast enough And they dressed as minions Wasn't fast enough for dad Wasn't fast enough Heans but Ian's gonna need for speed Oh yeah he's an old school boy racer Shit

He had an RX too Wow A Mazda RX2 He had a rotary Jesus I don't know what any of that means I'm just go on that He had to sell it

He had to sell it Because he had kids So that was another thing we ruined for him. Poor bugger. One of many. Never got one, never got an RX2 again. He saw how much they're worth now the other day and he had a silent tear. So I went go-karting and I have a rival.

His name is Jeremy Ting. We hate him. Oh, Ting Ting Ting's was one second enemy every goddamn lap. Well, the first, okay, so we did two races. So you've made him your rival because he was better than you fair and square. Yes. And he doesn't know that he was your rival. So nice.

So we did two races. In the first race, it was Ting and his mates who were there on a stag do, by the way. So he was a ripper of a stag do. They were going to go-karting and then custom maker McDonald's patty with a burger

with as many patties as that would allow them to put in a single beer. Is he allowed to use suppressing? Because you've got to avoid the fingers. You've got to watch the fingers. What are used the fingers? Wait, they just let you go backstage and make burgers?

No, no, no, no, no. They were just going to order it and say how many patties can we put on a max? Okay, right. Because he said his mate did 15 patties on one burger once. Right. This is a very wholesome stag, dude. That's cute.

I think they were under the light and guidance of the Lord. Bless him. Jesus Christ. And I wish he'd eaten the burger before the race. He would have been a little bit like full, heavier, and maybe a little lethargic after that much meat. Ting Zippy. Ting turned up with his own helmet. Oh, no.

And I... B.Y.O. Helmet? You can B.W.O. Helmets. Outrangers. And I was like, this is going to... Like, two of the four bought their own helmets. And in our first race, we had these other two guys who kept crashing. So they kept doing the safety flag and slowing us down.

And Ting and I had a fierce rivalry that he did not know about. Because every lap, I would say who had the fastest lap time. And we were both taking down our lap times, but he was always just ahead of me. Yeah, right. Ting and Smith going at it. Ting probably also weighed, my guess, is 20 KGs less than me. Yeah, you were bogging down the wheels. Oh, so he's got an advantage.

Yeah. If we're like Mario Kart, he's sort of a Luigi. your character, I'm a donkey Kong, you know? I'm a heavy, I'm a heavyset boy. He's wispy. I bounced off a couple of his mates a couple of times even though the rule is no contact because I don't care on go-karts. I go into the corners full speed. There's no part

of my brain that says button off now for safety. I'm like, floor it out of the corner. And then floor it and then drift it and push a break only if absolutely necessary. And then accelerate out. Afterwards when you got off the track. After the race one, he was kind of like looking at the times and he was looking around. He's like,

are you, you were born? And I was like, Yep. By the way, can I say there was eight people in our first race. Amy, my girlfriend, came third. Oh, wow. That's why. I came second. That's hot. She had a need for speed as well. She had a need for speed, number one. Number one. Number one.

So I'm just like, damn, you ting. Then he turns around and sees the board with the top ten times on it. That my name is on there. And he's like, is this you too? I was like, yes. But that's a celebrity one. He was really nice. He's like, it's really nice to meet you. And I said, oh, you need to tell everyone.

You're not on the actual leadership board. No, no. It's for people that you might know, maybe off the table. only once or twice. That's what I think that leaderboard should be called. You might have seen this person

maybe once a fight from the talent. Scott Dixon and Shane Van Gisbergin. It's a pretty illustriest. And I knocked Ali Williams out of the top ten. That felt pretty good. And every time I think he wants a helicopter in Hearn Bay, I'm like, maybe get back on the top ten board. You know, I should be allowed a helicopter pad.

Maybe work on your lap time before you get a helicopter down. Yeah, exactly. Pathetic. So in between, we're talking and Jeremy is just the nicest guy. I'm like, I don't like this. We're rivals. And I was Race 2, the two dudes that kept crashing,

they're not participating in race 2. It's just him and his mates and me and Amy. I'm like, six people on the track. And I say to her, I'm like, look, you're not going to beat me and you're not going to beat Ting. But if he's behind you, I'd be afraid to blop him. Oh, she's your buddy shaking bake. I'm like, we're team.

We're Team Red Bull. I'm like, you've got to do this because I'm the number one driver. My sacrifice. Yeah. So you lost. So what? Is that what Red Bull does? Team Red Bull, they always lose?

Why, is that a funny guy? I just picked a team. I don't know anything about the Mercedes, team Ferrari, whatever. Like your job is to make me look good. Right, I'm McLaren. And she's like, I'm not doing that. And I was like, fair enough. Fair enough.

Also, yeah, that's not the woman's role. No. To support the man to his glory. To block so I can beat Jeremy Ting. Yeah, why didn't you take out Ting so she could win? I'd never cross my mind. Shoverness. Oh, chauvinous.

Pig. So, race two, we're going. Now I'm, man, I'm hitting a couple of good laps. I look up. Guess who's number one? Born Smith. Three laps to go. I've got the number one time.

Smith, born Smith. Born Smith. Yeah. Last lap I look up. Ting's pinged me. And I'm like, I've got one last lap to do that. Last lap, someone crashes. Speed's pulled down.

I'm not going to beat my, so Ting comes off second. Ting comes off second race number one again. Did you get his contact details for a remit? I said how often do you come here because he had his own helmet. I said to the bold moves bring in your own helmet. Especially to his mate, I said, you didn't even place. That's embarrassing. You bought your own helmet.

But a trash talk, but a trash talk. But Ting's like, oh, this is a motorbike helmet. I rode motorbox. I'm like, God damn it. He's so cool. He's way cooler than you. He's so cool. No, I didn't tell him.

So I have a chimney. It goes 80 on the motorway. Suck out, Tim. Play Z-DM's flesh, won and Haley. The wedding. It's like, what, a week away, less than a week away, sometime in the next. Couple of day?

Yeah. Two days? A guest apparently still in the dark. Yeah. Just told to be in New York. Rumors. the rumours, producer Carwin, Swifty, Swifty extraordinaire,

more rumours that perhaps the Madison Square Garden thing when they've shut down all the streets and stuff, the people are going to be there, but maybe not them, maybe not Taylor and Travis. Look, I saw one theory video online and I quite... That's enough for it to possibly be true. I quite like the idea. I think she's also like a PR person or something,

so it's coming from informed knowledge. But she was saying that her theory is that Taylor and Travis aren't actually going to be physically getting married in the MCG. They'll be somewhere else in New York at like a private location with just like very close family and then live stream it to the MSG

so that all the guests the celebrities can be there, can be safe, not seen, have a big party and maybe Taylor and Travis would go there for like the reception, I guess, but not actually physically be in a wedding dress

going into the MSG. Oh, come. Which I don't know, that seems like a lot, but also Taylor Swift has a lot. So, I've seen reports that it's going to cost at least 20 million for what has been put out there

She's worth like a billion dollars. She's worth like a billion dollars. She'll be fine. I'll be like, we've got anything cheaper. And you know what? I was watching what's the voicemails for Isabel

and two of her songs are in that movie and I was like, she's making money for that wedding. Yes, you'll be right. So did you cry in voicemails for Isabel? No. You're heartless. Like, Kowans are heartless bitch. I'm a cancer.

I'm a cancer. So, it's a same. So same. We guys not cry. Why not? Well, we do, but I cry when I'm frustrated,

not when I'm upset. Right. Right. Whereas you, voicemails, you cried the whole movie. I pray everything. I get too happy,

I cry, I get too sad, I cry. I get frustrated, I cry. The Taylor Swift wedding, July 2 or 3, so that will be New Zealand

time Friday or Saturday. There you go, how fun. Yeah. The BATM podcast Network. Now, this weekend, speaking of Friday

Saturday, shout at everyone that got their flights cancelled was everywhere. Flights in and out of Wellington, flights in and out of New Plymouth. It was windy. And do you know what? When I got to New Plymouth,

I was like, okay, fine, it's really windy. So we, on Friday, a whole bunch of comedians were heading down for the Taranaki Winterfest Gala and then the Wanganui Comedy Gala. Everyone had flights and all those flights were getting cancelled.

Were there even any flights on Friday? I don't think there were any flights. No, no, no, no. They all got canned. Yes, it wasn't like, wait, wait, wait, wait. And then basically the only option became for all of the comedians from the Wellington End and, and Everby the Christchurch end and Auckland to all drive to New Plymouth, then drive to Wonganui and then drive back to Auckland.

So I did add 13 hours in the car this weekend. Oh, that didn't need. But I would say, out of everyone, like, I came off not too bad. I didn't want to drive. But, you know, the people were waiting. I was headlining. The people had been through enough. They've had their trampolines blowing over and their wheelie bins have been scoffeted thanks to the wind.

They need the light relief of Haley's stomach styling of Haley's brother. Yeah, some naughty stories and some funny chuckles. So I was all right, right? like got in my car, drove down. Gigs were great, but it was terrible. Hwani Hortenehu won the Billy T last year, this year, one of the years. Who knows, they're all melding together, aren't they?

He was like, I'll drive from Auckland to New Plymouth, but my car doesn't have a redro. So then it was like, so no, you won't drive. You can't do that. So he drives down with Guy Williams, but then he realizes once he's there, actually after the Wanganui show he actually needs to drive through the night

back to Auckland then get on a flight to Wellington and then head back up to Auckland we're all like why don't you drive from Wanganui to Wellington he's like because I don't have my car he's got Guy Williams car so Guy says take the car to Auckland so now Guy Williams is without a car hoping that the flight goes so that's one drama

Justine Smith on the way down didn't want to drive car crash Two women tried two women killed. Picked it, you know. Yeah, maybe Saudi Arabia was on to something. But yeah, I think so.

Lots of things. That's not actually where your agreement with the Saudi government stops, though, is it? No, but we don't have time to get into all of that. We don't have time. We don't have time for that. A lot in common with the Saudi government. I've got a golf tournament coming up. I can't say too much more about it.

Don't say too much. So two women try to get into the same lane, right? Three lanes that are indicating to get the same lane. Just sideswope each other. So she's had a crash. Hwani's in Guy's car. Guys carless. I'm tired.

And then Brinley was in New Plymouth working and then was like, oh, I'll just, I'll be in New Plymouth already but I'll just pop down to Christchurch to visit my family. I'll leave the car in New Plymouth and I'll be back for the gig and I'll grab it. She can't get from Christchurch to New Plymouth. So now Brinley's, I don't know what city she's in, but her car's in New Plymouth and she's not there.

It was just an absolute cluster situation. But the show went on. The show went on. New Plymouth, 1,000 people completely sold out. Wanganui 800 at the Opera House. And boy, did we laugh. It was all worth it in the end. Good style.

I was going to come down. Me and a couple of mates. But we, our flight's got cancelled. I was definitely, I was going to come down too. No, you weren't. I was definitely going to go down. I was going to take my two seat of C Cicna. Remember I was going to meet you there?

God, the conditions were not for me. Yeah, I wasn't going to trust you to fly us down. Cessna. Yeah. Just, oh, God, I was at my mention to get the Cessner in the act. Yeah, yeah, I hoping to. You can afford a Cessna. I inherited it.

After you, oh, right, okay. From who? My great uncle. What's his name? Graham. He died last week. Now that's a true story actually. Sad lost with it.

He wasn't my great-uncle died. Wait, you just merged a lie with the truth. That's dirty. Why? That's dirty. That's dirty. It's a dirty. And it's death too, so you can't be angry.

Yeah, that's a dirty play, eh, dude. My Uncle Graham was 103 years old. He died last. Great uncle. You're not getting a day off for this. Can I? No. That's not bereavement, Leave.

You don't get a day off for a great... But it's last time you saw him. I wanted to go. Oh, long. long time ago. Yeah, you don't get a day off. No, you don't get a day off for that. Or if you take it, that's fine, but next time someone really close to you dies, you know, you're at work. I don't care who it is. 103, though, that's pretty amazing, eh?

God, I can't imagine that. Take me. We've got a plan in place. The plan remains. The ZN Podcast Network, play ZN's flesh, Forne and Haley. We're to an op shop at the weekend that I've driven past a few times and made the bold claim of being Auckland's biggest second-hand store. Which one? It's out by Westgate. I can't remember the name.

Bold claim. But it's a bold claim. Oh, God. I went to Tess claim this place. And you know what? They might have a point in pure square footage because they're in a massive warehouse. But it didn't have the most stuff.

It's clothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not as many knick-knacks as you would like. You're more of a knick-knack girl. I went heavy on the knick-knacks, man. Partier had a beautiful antique shop. Oh, colder. I stopped at a few places.

I just got a few, you know, ceramic goods. Did you find anything? I found a plate that was, looks like a leaf. Did you get the cap skin thing that somebody sent just? It'll got, and I was already in all club. I'm going to get them to ship it. I'm going to do a whole thing. I'm going to do it. It's a whole thing. Again, I always sent that. Serramic pumpkin.

Can you please pass this on by Haley? I'm not a personal assistant. I'll give you a little. Give me a little cut. Slice of my pumpkin. That's kind of weird. A little slice of the pumpkin. I went into the self shop. One thing caught my eye.

Okay. A size 17 shoe. Oh, fast. That is my socked foot beside that shoe. You know, I sent this to the group chat. I didn't know what you meant. I just thought you were meaning the style of the shoe. Were you the same?

Were you girls the same? Because Vaughn't send this in the group chat. Did I not explain myself. Well, you said, who wears a shoe like this? And I was like, I don't know. It just looks like a shoe. I thought you were asking us that. I was like, not me.

Oh, okay, sorry. You know, when you don't know what's happening in the group chat and you just had a wow react and leave. I don't even say. I'm sorry. Right, gotcha. That's your foot next to that. That's my size 11 and a half depending.

I'm 12. He's 10. I'm not 10. I'm not a size 10. You're a size 10. You're a size 10. I'm a size 10. I'm a size 10.

Weird with your height. Just saying it's weird. With your height, it's like it falls over. Yeah. What is it all mean? But this is a size 17 shoe. That's a wopper. It hadn't been, it looked brand new.

It hadn't been worn. Who is this monster? With a size 17 half. Can we use size 50? What? You know when you're like a 41 or a 43 is at 50. Can we quickly 9-696? If you're listening now, what's the biggest shoe size you know of something wearing?

Because this had a custom made shoe vibe. And it was never worn. Someone else has seen this show. They said, I know where this is. I saw that on the weekend. It's effing huge. It's a monster shoe. It's impossible.

Like, I could have. fit, it was too wide, but I think with my boot on, I could have fit my boot in the shoe. And I wear these big, people often ask me, you're off to the construction side after work. And I say, I just love a comfortable steel cap. And that's what I've got here. You don't wear those to work on in the office. I'm ready to go. I think we're all a bit show.

I mean, I'm going to Europe on the weekend and I've got some new burke, so I'm breaking them in with some gym shorts at the moment. What are your dogs? What are your dogs in today? Just my black shoes. Black Muslims. Some of black ma's solomons. Yeah, because he's got to go for a hike straight after work.

Oh, and we go, Rich, with your workboats. We're actually all off. I bought my microphone off with my giant half. Didn't mean it to that. We've got a variety of shoes in studio. Being a size 12, an actual size 12, I feel for this size 16 person. 17.

Whoever they are, because display shoes are always a 9 or a 10, and they look perfectly proportion. And then you go and ask for the 12, especially things like charks. They just look like clown shoes. Text machine's confused. Because someone just said, I worked in a shoe outlet

and I sold some 45s. That's Europe. Yeah. If you had a huge 45. Yeah. You are literally side show Bob at that stage. Your feet would be as longer than your body.

Yeah. Someone said my dad has a size shoe 21. No. No. I'm going to need to see your dad's bare foot. Because your dad could be making some money on Only fans

with them giant feet. I'm 13 years old. So I was watching. Yeah. And my shoe size is 43, which is 12 and a half, being the youngest with the bigger shoe size. That's big for a 13 year old. And then your mum went to say,

I'm not spending much on shoes because you'll grow out of them in two weeks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like when you started at high school and you had to get a new pair of shoes and they got stuffed with the end, a couple of size was too big. Paige, good morning.

Good morning. Hi. Now, your dad's shoes. She's got somebody, what did you say, Paige? Just off that. Long time, the first time, call up. Oh, okay. Love it.

I love it. How old. Now, your dad's shoes are how big? Size 21. No, they're not. 21 US-US 21? Yes. So all of his thought we would have to be custom made?

Yeah, he spends an extra $150 on the event. Can we get, do you have on your phone or easily access photos of your dads? Can't ask for free feet picks. Excuse you, I can't ask. She can say no if she wants, but I'll ask. If they're in shoes, it's okay. I would, but my, actually, I only have a button. phone so I can't send pictures.

Wait, have you got a... You're a dummy phone. Wait, you've only got a button phone and your dad's got size 21 feet. Why are you? This is too much. Are you calling from the year 1997? No, I just didn't like social media.

It was ruining my life. So I was like... Paige. I love this page for you. I think every day how great would this a dumb phone be? People find it to find them because I'm only 19. Wow. And I love this.

I mean, your phone sounds like shit, if I'm going to be honest, page, it's terrible. Don't worry about it. It's a terrible phone. Is it making your life better? The dumb phone, absolutely. Yeah. Oh man, I'm jealous of Page now. Do you feel like you're missing out on invites and stuff?

Or do your friends just text you or talk to you? Do you feel like you're missing out on, it's your phone? It's your phone. Don't worry about it. Do you feel like you're missing out on invites or do your friends talk to you in real life? I don't have things. Okay. You don't have friends.

But your dad's got 21 size food. Wait, we need to do our, we need to do our friend connection. No, she might not want friends. She doesn't sound like she needs them. Paige, do you want friends? I don't. No, you don't. I feel, I like this.

No, I do. You do want friends. Okay, we used to, we did it. We haven't done it for a while that we would get people to, what are you into, Paige? I like logic puzzles and words batches and listening to music. Music? Okay. Puzzles.

I love logic puzzles. This sounds like you want to get an escape room page? You can be Shannon's best friend. She could teach this in crochet. Yeah, what area of the country are you in? I'm in Auckland. That's a big place. It is a big place.

There you go. Well, we'll see you up with... More specifically I'm in when you are. Okay, well, we'll see you on with on producer Shannon. She can teach you some crochet. Yeah, but... Is your dad a good swimmer? No.

It's a waste. Yeah, that's like asking a tall person if they're good at basketball. Yeah, you're actually offended who there. Page, thank you. Come on, he's got to dad. He's got flippers. Okay, the largest ever shoe size recorded belonged to Robert Wadlow. He's at the world's tallest man.

The world's tallest man. US size 37 AA. Jesus Christ. Which is an EU 75. His shoes measured 47 centimeters. So imagine a school ruler. And 17 more. And a half.

And a half. One and a half school rollers. Subway. Subways, yes. The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Flesh, Forn and Haley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do do do do do do do do do to do do do do do do do.

This week's fact of the day theme is snakes. We're only working Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week. And then on Thursday, we're all off to Europe. Yeah. Did you get a last minute flight to join us? Yeah, I just decided why not? I've got the money. No, I'm going to Wanaka for some snowboarding.

So lovely. Yeah, I'm very much looking forward to it. The Taranaki Munga, by the way. Gold up. Oh, she were gorge. And I tried to get a photo, but heavy laden with cloud. Classic. And then I drove the back road to Ruah Peru.

Layed in you guys, a beautiful video. Yes, beautiful. So hopefully snow. More snow, more snow, more snow. But it's snakes week at Factor of the Day. and today's fact of the day is the world's deadliest snake has never killed anyone.

Was it like when people say mosquitoes are the most poisonous things but they don't have the strength to poison you? No, mosquitoes kill more people than anything else. No, daddy long legs. You're thinking of daddy long legs. No, this is because the world's most venomous snake is the inland typan of a typan of central Australia. Drop for drop, its venom is the most toxic

of any land snake ever measured. A single bite carries enough venom to kill at least 100 adult humans. Jeez. So it's the deadliest snake alive, but it's never killed a single person that we know of. Does it have bad teeth?

I mean, in the thousands of years of people living in Australia, it probably has. But no one on record has ever been killed by it. 11 people have been known to be bitten by it, but every one of them survived because of how quickly they got anti-venom. Because if you're working in the area, you carry anti-venom.

Right. But it's also an extremely shy snake that won't, like, hunt out humans. It won't try to bite humans. It's not really territorial. It's shy and reclusive and lives in some of the emptiest parts of the planet, like our back of Australia. Yeah, where hardly anyone is.

Per square kilometre. Oh, just bloody nobody. Yeah, I've come across a couple of, like, three snakes. In the wild. In the wild when I've been overseas and bleh. It's horrible. It's weird. You're like, what is that? Yeah.

It's so foreign to us. And then I don't know which ones are poisonous or which ones are not. It's normally the brown, the least colored ones, right? That's the general rule of thumb. More poisonous. really colourful snakes aren't the poisonous ones. They're little, little brown and black and like the ones that are really camouflaged there in my own. The purple snakes are the yummiest and then the red and the red and

and then yellow but no you guys don't like. When you said purple snake it wasn't Lolly I thought you were about to. You're like which one's there? Um, sour wings or yeah I'm yum squirm you meant a sour worm not a fizzy worm no or just the normal worms. Squam. Yeah, the sour ones. Yeah, yeah, squims. But no, no, no, you said fizzy. I want to make sure I'm across all snake lollies.

There's not a fizzy snake lolly is there? Yes, there is. Sal worms. And they're little one dollar mixes. You know the words, it's like half, like one's baby pink, one's blue. One's orange and green. The ones that aren't that long. Yeah, that's a fizzy snake.

Yeah. They're not sour. I don't like to call them snakes. What do you call them? I don't know. Worms. Worms. More of a worm.

But then a worm. No, they are worms. As long. I think it's worms. Lizzie worms. No, I'm sorry, they're worms. I beg your pardon. I won't. I can admit when I'm wrong. And for that, we thank you.

Have you guys tried nerd clusters? Dude, Jesus, those things. I had two bags over the weekend. The gummy ones? I had two bags over the evening. They're outrageous. I've banned nude clusters from my vicinity. They had turned into somewhat of a hoover.

Yeah. Because I love a nerd rope. Yeah. Clusters keep coming. The gummy clusters? Like, that outrage ban them before we all get addicted. I had so many lollies this weekend because of my impromptu road trip. We got like lots of bag, like spinning tops with the gums.

I got tattoo. I got the tattoos. And I got, yeah, yum, yum, yum, nerd clusters. Yeah, nerd that nerd cluster robe. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Anyway, snakes. Who cares?

Let's get some nerds up in here. So today's fact of the day is the world's deadliest snake. It's actually never killed anybody. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Toop, do-dip, do-d-dood-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-do. Play Z-M's Flash forne and Haley. We want to know what is your childhood bedroom now. You left home, maybe your parents obviously just stayed there.

And after some time they go, well, we can turn this into anything we want. We could turn this into a little fun room. We could turn this into... Well, it's their goddamn house. They paid the mortgage. Oh, exactly. You haven't added anything. There is a woman who shares that when she goes back home to her childhood home,

when she wakes up in her childhood bedroom they've kept a single bed but it's now her dad's office and he's working and she shows him literally just on his laptop computer everything

all of his files he's got a desk there he's working away just as she snoozes and she's like well I mean that's fair this is his house he couldn't start

after she wakes up yeah but I love the idea that because I didn't my parents moved out of our childhood home so then they lived in houses that didn't have my own dedicated space. Right.

But I love the idea of parents being like, finally. And relishing it and going like, you get that games room. Yes, and all parents that turn it into their craft room. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, they love a craft room. Don't they love a craft room? Yeah, their own thing. Maybe they turn it into a little internal bar in the house.

Yeah. She loves her statue. Oh, she loves her statues. She'll still peruse the markets for a statue, Vanierafus. If you see a statue, do grab it for men. I'll pay you back. Oh, okay, so someone's just texting. My parents turned my room into a, what do you call it,

fostering puppies room is when they raise puppies. So your room would stink. It would stink, more than teenage you made it stink. So you'd go back home at Christmas and you wouldn't be able to stay in there? I would just lie on the floor of the puppies. Yeah, but is there a bed in there now? Yeah, it's, okay. Covered in.

This is what we want to know. Oh, 800, Dars at them, to text through. You can, give us a couple of them to text through. and give us a call as well. O 800,000. Some messages in. My mum went through a midlife crisis and turn my room into a massage room.

She now does back sack and crack waxes in there, although she was learning. Although when she was learning, she wanted me to proposition to my friends for a free wax. No one took a problem in the offer. She had to give my uncle a go. What?

He got halfway through before calling it quits. Came back a couple of days later because it looked weird. Now, do you think that's her brother? Her sister's husband or her husband's brother? We don't get waxed by far, no. Not that close. No, no.

So we don't get waxed by. Not when you shared a grandparent, I don't reckon. Yeah. I think if you share a grandparent, you're not seeing my bits. Yeah. Yep. Oh, Phil said my parents have, my old childhood bedroom, they've built themselves a small playground,

not a lot of equipment, but a very unusual looking swing. Oh, Phil. Right. Some sort of big wooden X. Confirmation was indeed her own brother that she waxed. Okay. I'm sorry. You don't wax.

a family member. So do you know we've had quite a... Oh my, you go? My parents don't live there now, but my childhood bedroom got turned into my mum's bedroom. They couldn't stand being in the same room together. Now they live in separate houses

across the road from each other. They've been married for over 30 years. So they didn't do a sleep, they went an extreme sleep divorce. Yeah. Over the road from each other. That's what, and still married. So Chrissy messaged in earlier as well

and said, it's my dad's room now. They always didn't like each other Now they get their own space But still together It's still in the same house I mean I guess it's easier than selling up It is, yeah Starting again

Yeah God, just bugger off into that room Gonna begrudgingly like each other Dinner's there if you want it Yeah That kind of stuff What are you watching And I'll go watch something Diner's there if you want it

Such a heartfelt Yeah We want to know right now What is your childhood bedroom Yeah At your parents' place They turned it into something fun I'd say lots of them are sleep divorces.

Somebody said, well, I was overseas on my OE, they turned my room into a spa and sauna room. You couldn't sign. I hope they ripped the carpet up. Put some tiles down, had it waterproofed, got a good extractor fan. Do you think carpeted bathroom's going to come back? Of course they are. It's just around the corner.

It's my great prediction for 2027, the return to the carpeted bathroom. Someone else messaged in that their bedroom did get turned into a proper bathroom because they lived in a house where they just had a dinky little bathroom. So the moment she left, they were like, well, that room's just. sitting there and they've got a proper nice one now. My childhood bedroom is now a pile

of ash and rubble. My little sister burnt the house down after I moved out. What? Down. What? Left a candle burning or something? Or intentional it'll be like, leave me here with these two. I'll show you. I'll burn it all down. Lots of people saying, yeah, my old room is now my mum's

room. Her and Dad started sleeping separately. I'm glad I'm not the only person. They've been listening. Yeah. It's the most popular one. Dad turned my old bedroom into a grow room. Dad. No word on what dad was growing. Tomatoes. Of course.

Of course. This is interesting. A bit of a reverse here. I lived in a house of my parents until I was 12. And I was really angry when we moved out of the house. I love this place a lot.

They're still in the house that they moved to 30 years later and I bought the childhood home. I'm now sleeping in my parents' bedroom and raising our three kids in the home that I grew up with. Wow. Wow.

So did you buy it? Bridget, if you're still listening, did you buy it off a stranger? Did you sit listening and you're like, I'm having that house? Yeah, but I guess so, because she left when she was 12. That's some big nostalgia there. Do you know what? I have one house that I grew up in.

And if I had the money and I was living in Wellington and I was looking for a house and that came up 100%. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just because of the memories. The memories and just being like, we're so cute. You'd probably get it though and be like, this was a dive. Meanwhile, your parents are like, don't buy that. We covered up a lot when we did the run ice.

Yeah, yeah. We planted out on the distressed us. Yeah. A lot of, I feel like a lot of people are saying that their parents left the childhood home once the kids left. Too sad. And you know, parents are like, oh, I don't want to rattle around in this big house. MDN esters. Mm-hmm.

But that's the thing of the past because no one can afford to move out now. Yeah, the kids just stay with them forever. 477 said, we've got carpet in our current bathroom. What? Do you recommend? Yeah. No, yeah, I don't think a council, would a council let your carpet at bathroom these days? They're pretty fastidious about it being a sort of a waterproof room.

Yeah, if there's waterproofing under the carpet. Yeah. Like a membrane under the, yuck. It's to not ruin the foundations, right, in the piles and stuff. But I think artistically you could carpet your bathroom if you wanted to. Oh, no, don't do that. My parents still live in the same house. I grew up with my children now sleep in my old bedroom when they visit their grandparents.

Same. Yeah. Same. My kid's sleep in the old bedroom. In the old bedroom, yeah. What are you doing that in the air face for? What are they aware of? I shed my head.

I shared the bedroom with my brother. There was no playing with yourself. That makes it better. There was no playing with yourself in the bedroom. Jeepers. I mean, there was some 45 minute long showers. But, you know, that's by the buy. Someone else, Mr. Jun, yeah, I bought my grandmother's house when I was 30.

Wow. I'd buy my grandparents' house because it was full of, like, fun memories. And grandparents' houses are always so mysterious when you're going. They smell like old people. My childhood bedroom is now my daughter's bedroom, which was my dad's childhood bedroom. Wow.

This house is just staying in the family. That must be a nice house. Yeah. Oh, my grandma had bright blue carpet in her bathroom. Let's not make that a thing again. My grandparents had a carpeted bathroom, but it was very beige, very brown beige carpet. Oh, you go neutral.

If you get a carpet at your bathroom. As someone who has done a bit of interior design myself, when it comes to carpet in the bathroom, we go neutral. The ZN's Podcast Network. Play ZM. Flash morning, Hayley. We've missed you this morning, Brin, because normally you're in for deal or reveal.

Yeah. Yeah. Can you a bit of a sleep in? No, no sleep in. The news just keeps on going. He reads the news, Hayley. Oh, I thought it was a different character. I thought it was his brother.

Also, like half of his brain sleeps. No, bank brin was not this brin. Yeah, different brin. Same brin. Same brin, you mentioned last week you were doing, what is it called hard 75? 75 hard, yeah. Okay.

Yeah. And how does that work for people that? didn't know about this. So you're doing 75 days of a very hard regime, fitness regime. Yep. 75 days of exercising twice a day. One has to be outside. But I do like 10,000 or so steps,

drink lots of water, that sort of thing. No alcohol. Didn't you have to read something as well? Read 10 pages of a nonfiction book. Nonfiction. Yeah. I've had friends do this. And yeah, they definitely look great at the end of the 75 days. Yeah.

And then 75 days later, they're back to where they're. And so they did. 75 days. Yeah, yeah, I've had a couple of friends do 75 soft where it's like drinks on occasions but not at high, you know, people do their own version but I had a couple of friends do the full shabang. So how's your 75 hard going?

Well, yeah, what day you're on? I'm on day one. Yeah, you restarting that. You've been going for weeks. Yeah, I've had to restart multiple times. Right. Was it the steak and the fries that night? There was that occasion and then I'm not good with temptation

I'm easily tempted, which is not good. So we all are. That's all right. That's what life is about temptation. Have you had nerds gumming clusters? No, but don't put that into my brain. Try them. Try them.

No, tomorrow's day one. Try them today. Tomorrow's day one. Yeah, tomorrow should be day one. Start tomorrow. Better than now. I mean, you get the nerd cluster out of the way, but imagine if you're 25 days in,

one third of the way through 75 hard, and that's the day the nerd clusters gets too much because you didn't know. No, do them today. Well, the reason Brent is in, he's got not enough for the news news. All the news stories that weren't enough for the news. That's right. Now, you guys didn't write these stories.

We actually, in protest last week, said nut. Yeah. Well, I protested last week, too saying, no, I can't, can't let Vaughn write any more stories. It's too many puns. It's too many puns. Jumbled, jumbled, jumbled, jumbled, jumbled, too many puns. Remember that story that he's introduced the idea of it? Yes.

And then puns in it. And that was the end. and we never found out what the story was. There was no context. Yeah. Yeah. So who's ridden it this week, Brin? Yeah, that guy sucks.

I have. I put my serious news brain into action here. The whole point is that it's supposed to be silly. Oh. Are you going to get this attitude? We're going to go leave back. Okay. Well, that's sad.

Enjoy this. Okay. What is the time? Oh, it's almost quarter past nine. We don't put the time in when we write it, but what do we know? There we go. Smugglers in Texas. No, you need to cure a good morning on Brin Runkkin.

I mean, that, Restart the bed. I'll start again. I'll start again. Here we go. So far, not great. Not great. Kielda, good morning.

I'm Bryn Rudkin. Why did you say Brinardkin? Anyone else here then? Is that your full name? He said Brunner Rudkin. Brinna Rudkin. Terrible start. Restart it.

Okay, start the bed again. Sorry, I'll restart. Okay, here we go. Gosh, Simon Dallow doesn't have this sort of in his ear. Now you've talked over the thing. You've got him to go one more time. Clean start, everyone. Shut up.

Okay. Are we ready? Yeah. Good morning. I'm Bryn Rudkin. What have you got against Māori people? That's crazy. I'm literally right here.

Atamari, yeah. Yeah, killed it. Are we restarting again? No. Okay, right, here we go. Smugglers in Texas have tried to sneak across the border by dressing their SUV up as a Google Street View car. Border Patrol wasn't buying it, though,

pulling them over with a full load of undocumented passengers. Safe to say, the road trip has been rerouted to jail and it's getting a one-star Google review. It took four lines to get to a pun. Yeah, no puns. I liked it, I liked it. Great ending, clever ending. Four lines to your first pun.

Is that a good thing? I'll just say, Kilda Good Morning. Okay. Well, a warning, this next one might be hard to swallow. A US woman is suing fast food chain Arby's after allegedly catching herpes from a sandwich with a manager accused of spitting in her food. Oh, goodness.

That's not how you add. extra mayo. Oh, Brin. Can you have some respect for our show? There's children in the car. I was really proud of that one. Wow. Brin. Okay, next one.

Oh, that's it. That's it. No, can I say, I liked how subtle that was. Thank you. It doesn't need to go on and on. The story's done. You know what the story is. It's not. It's not on and on directed of Vaugh. But when I do it, I'd say, perfect length, perfect pun. I think we're a little line on the puns.

Okay, Bryn, carry on. A Scottish man has tried to fix tired eyes by using a massage gun directly on his eyeballs. Perfect. That actually sounds really relaxing. Yeah. Doctors found retinal tears and bruising in both eyes after his DIY spa treatment. Is that it?

No, it's not. Okay. He was just trying to unwind, but now he can barely see the funny side. Because his eyes are all. Thank you out there in the producers. It's a stretch. It's a stretch. Light.

real surface level puns here. But that's what you want. We don't need to get too carried away. After a holiday break, you can be in charge again, Hayley. I think carry on. Okay, I've got one final story. And it turns out honesty isn't always the best policy.

Two people have been busted after police found a suspicious vehicle and inside it, a bag helpfully labelled definitely not a bag full of drugs. Spoiler alert, it was in fact a bag full of drugs. They really put the meth in method acting.

See, that's your best one yet. That's your best one yet. But we waited so long. There's more of a labelling. It was more of a labelling situation than an acting situation. If I'm going to pick holes here. Is that it? Yeah, that's it actually.

You have a sign off? But you got the gist of the stories. It was content. We've got the news for that. Not enough puns for me. Was too newsy? Not enough laboured puns. Yeah, no.

Okay, right now on the spot, give me another meth pun. Um, about the, is that what the, was in the bag? I don't know. They said they didn't, uh, methamphetamine to do it. Now that's nice. That's better. We're getting into it. Yeah.

It was when they got into, the whole thing was a complete meth. Yeah. That's nice. Yeah. That's nice. That's good stuff, really. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, you could have ridden this.

Yeah. I would say, listen, just my personal take. As the professional comedian in the room, I think I'm the perfect balance of this We've got the stories from Brin And some lights matters It's laden With puns when Vaughn does it

And there's no news I think for and there's no news I think with me It's the perfect balance We've found a middle ground Have we here Yeah so after holiday I'll refresh it

I mean good on your brin It was a solid effort Yeah I think the 75 heart I think your brain Just needs some nerd clusters I think you need some sugar It needs some sugar

It's really getting to me day one How many times have you read too much nonfiction? How many times have you done this? Day one? Well, it was every day last week. Have you done two days in a row? I haven't got through a whole day. There is a fella who moved to Australia

and he said the one thing that he is sick of seeing on the dating apps because that's the first thing he did when he got there, he got them all, is every Aussie single girl has spicy margaritas, a picture of them travelling in a dog. He was like, it is the same across, he's like, oh my God, get a new thing.

Where's he from? Like, is he a Brit that's gone to... He's a pom. He's a pom. What do they have in England then on their dating at? Clouds? Cup of tea, miserable grey. Yeah, traffat.

Funky teeth. And a corgi. Yeah, that's the version of it And a photo outside Buckingham Palace Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, totally Sure, I would have thought it would have been quite universal. Well, I just had a little chequy, a chequey-wecky, and on the apps of which I still remain,

I've got none of those, so I win. Well, I've got... There's a lot of tramble, though, like... I've got Hobbiton. Lovely, love Hobarton. Yep. I've got oysters, I guess that would be. I've got espresso martini

and that. So basically you just have exactly what this guy said. No cattle dog. No cattle dog. No cattle dog. Yeah. Anyway, I just thought hearing this, it's like, Ratch actually, coming from you. All the girls are the same. I want to hear from you. Actually, regardless of gender, I was about to say ladies unite,

what are you sick of? But anyone message it, what are you tired of seeing on the apps? It's the same shit. Group shot of all your tall, hot friends? Surely it's group shop, guys holding fish and cars. Or just like no clear, like no clear face photo. Yeah. When I was like hot and new on the apps, I was like, what is your face?

Like I'm going to need to see that. Yeah, but you can't put your face on there if you already got a girlfriend, Haley. Oh, this is true. This is true. I see. I see why that was so blurred. Okay, 0800,000 Amazon number. Text through to the studio, 966.

Time to unload. What are you tired of seeing on the dating app? Carla, what are you sick of seeing on dating profiles? Oh, my God. So there's this prompt on Bumble, and it says, when my phone dies, I, dot, dot, dot. Oh, yeah. And every single freaking time, a guy will write, charge it.

That's the correct answer. It is so lame. It is honestly the most tragic response. I mean, duh, of course. Like, but can you actually have like a creative thought in your brain and maybe just fucking think outside? It's so funny. Be funny. Be creative.

Be quirky. What would be your ideal answer? Something like I just ignore it and I just look up and I just take the world in with my eyes. It's better than just charge it. No, but just anything, like obviously it's about getting outside of your phone and just like, you know, big, bold, thoughtful. ideas but no, every time, it's like, please don't even pick that prompt. Like, even if I see someone that's picked that prompt, I don't even want to look at the answer

because I know what it's going to say. What are some of the other prompts? I love this. I love Bumble. I don't know that, so what is this how does that work? I feel like that guys have gone for this one because it's the easiest prompt to just fill out the, you know, the bio. Oh, honestly. Carla, Carla, are you still single?

Sadly, yes. Well, actually, maybe not, sadly. Oh, okay. And joyfully, joyfully, but only because, only because there is just such a lack of quality from the other side. Do you know what, I'm sorry? Carla, I know. I didn't realize this until I went on dating apps for the first time. And you're like, are you serious?

Are you serious? I know. I know. Who raised you? Who did this? I know. Oh, my. God, we've really had a nerve, haven't we?

We've had a nerve. I feel your energy, Carla. I was like, she's single still. Carla, thank you. What do you, Carla, what do you do when your phone dies? I enjoy my phone dying and I get out and, I don't know, touch grass. Just put and get out in the world and like face to face people. Like that is just, yeah.

Beautiful. Beautiful. Carla's fun. Okay, well, Carla, thank you. Some messages in. She sounded angry to me. What she was having to deal with the guys? She'd have to deal with people.

What you? I've got a dating at for you that would probably work. It's called her, if that's a clue for who's on them. No men? No, me? Yeah, right. No men. Yeah, give it a go, babe.

It's fun. You'll get used to it. Yeah, I'll give it a go. Everyone's a little day. It's 22. It's 12. You're fun, Carla. I like you.

Okay. Some messages in. Thank you. Can you write? Can you save Carla and the phone is a little bit gay? And we'll come back to it. Carla, and then next time she calls, we'll see how it's going. How gay she became.

She's become a little bit more gay. Yeah. I'm sick of seeing men standing shirtless in the mirror picks. It gives me the mega ick. Overall heaps of men are making it their profile pictures as if they're trying to attract other men and not woman, which of course is all good if that's their end goal. Yeah, right.

So they want to show you the goods, right? Also, nice to know that there's a six-pack there, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I'd like to see it. I'm not mad at that, but it depends on what you're looking for. Yeah. I'm looking for. for abs in the mirror.

Yeah. Somebody said my male colleague has a photo of him holding a fish as a slack photo. Is that the work communications? Yeah, it is. So you can imagine what his dating atmosphere. Like if he's slacking with a work one. There are so many messages for group photos.

Yeah. Because you don't know who it is. I always pick the one I like from the line up and then swipe through and it's never the one I want. It's never the one you want. No, they're not single. They're so hot. And they know that.

That's what they're like alluring you in. It's like getting a box of favourites, the chocolates and like looking at all the flavours and being like yum, that's the one in one and I'm in the box and there's just that yuck Turkish delight one left. No, see, I would love a whole box of Turkish delights. Yeah, so would I. It's that yucked strawberry one. Oh, I want the strawberry one.

Oh, texture one is so. Gristy, it's a real hard one that no one likes. No, no, that's the coffee one. That was okay. That's the worst one. The mint one. Oh, my God. Oh, we have the mint one too. Oh, mint.

Oh, mint. You're starting to sound racist when it comes to a box of chocolates. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you are. Yeah, you are. Oh, what's wrong with the Turkish? Oh, I see. Oh, God.

Hey, hey. There's someone here that appreciates the Turkish. Yeah. It's me. Not their dry lamb. Not their dry lamb. We need to moisten up that lamb some. Get some juice on that line.

Yeah, let's get some cooking juices in that one. Chris said, I'm tired of seeing babies on these women's profile. Like, some of them have their baby as their main picture and all the pictures of the baby. I'm not swiping on a baby. I mean. What's wrong with you? I can see why they're putting it out. They're like, hey, this is a package deal.

You have a baby. Yeah, yeah. But you can literally put that as a first thing in your profile. Mum first. Yeah, exactly. Mm. Um, some pro-carla and some anti-carla coming in on the message. Oh, well, we don't need.

We're not anti. We love. I'm just going to have a little... Elliot says, I'm sorry, I can't participate in the segment, happily married, but adore the show. Cheers, Elliot. Thanks, Elliot. We always enjoy our hair and people who are listening

but can't participate in the current front-in topic. Yeah. I'm just having a little look because it's been a min. like what I would say if you are a single heterosexual man just get one of your girlfriends or your partner's wives

to like to curate to get in the profile and be like okay this is how I would see this Right it's important from day one Start lying about who you are when you're looking for the one you're going to be Let me tell me the bloody truth mate Let me find that out three years down the track

when it's too late The ZDM Podcast Network Well you maybe have listened to the show last week I was talking about some sleep help that I've been getting from tea. A tea, a mushroom powder, the rishi mushroom, dried, round up into powder, a little quarter teaspoon into a warm liquid, milk. Not milk, I mean, it's water.

We know how tea works. You know how tea works. You know what we're really breaking it down. You don't need to steep it though. No, because tea I think is a steeping and it's a leaf. You make it like a milo or born vita. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like a Nesquick.

It's a really weak milo. A quarter tea. teaspoon milo. Imagine war rations Milo. No. But it tastes more like a... After swim club Milo. Yeah, but it tastes more like veggie mite. Yeah. It's got a real umami. So you buy this at a health store or something.

Order it online. Oh, yeah. Yeah, and it's asleep. It helps to relax. And it's an old Chinese medicinal mushroom, but my purpose was to get a deeper sleep. And you were saying you were loving her. Yeah, yeah. Quarter teaspoon. Because I've been having more dreams, but some research on my hand just tells me that's where

the deep sleep happens. So maybe just getting a deeper sleep, thus the dreams. Because magnesium can do that as well, gives you some pretty vivid dreams. I do magnesium and aschwaganda before beer. I do magnesium and a quarter bottle of wine. Now we're talking. So on Friday, I felt overtired.

You know where you're like, I'm overtired. And you get a bit frigid and silly and you're worried, I double-dosed. I had a half a teaspoon, not a quarter of a teaspoon. It's all natural, right? Yeah, it's all natural. Wow. Boy.

What happened? Boy. Just a wild sleep. What happened in your dreams? Very, very vivid, very scary dreams. Oh dear. Woke up sweating in a panic. I woke up in a wet sweat this morning.

Yeah, I woke up in a wet sweat this morning too. Yeah. Did you wake up in a wet sweat this morning? No, I didn't. I didn't. I was soaked through. Oh, are you getting sick? Don't curse me that way.

No, I'm not sick. I think I just must have got all bundled up and everything. In winter, that can happen because you make a cocoon out of your duvet. And then your body warms up. And it's too good. A bit of cold head, but then the sweat. I was wet. I thought I'd wet the bed.

Really? I was feeling around being like... Sure, you hadn't wet the bed. That quarter bottle of wine. Shaganda. Yeah, yeah, maybe. Could get you hang it out. Yeah.

But yeah, it was... It was a lot. Okay. Do you... Because for a work, because this is on Friday night, so no work the next day, does it linger in your system? You know, sometimes there's some things you're like, You know, I took a little Larazepam or something the next day.

No, not really. Not really. I had a massive sleeping at the weekend, though. Like fatty sleep. Yeah, big fatty sleep. And woke up standard time. The body tells you to wake up because it's time to go to work at 4 o'clock. I was like, not today's Satan.

We're about to sleep. Sleep till 9. Oh, wow. 9 great sleep. That's crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Crazy long sleep. Maybe you should be a mushroom tea influencer.

You reckon? Start peddling a lot of mushies. Start peddling the mushroom tea. Yeah, do it. I'll try it because we do. I've mentioned this before. We're a lion's main family. Good for the Alzheimer's and the brain and stuff.

Linesman. You get into that. You're a bit of a brain, focusing on the brain man flesh. Yeah, okay. What about a horny goat weed? Are we all, anybody doing a horny goat weed? Oh no, I couldn't possibly lift those.

Be horny. I was stick to my multivitamin, I think. Yeah, yeah, multivitamin keeps you strong where it matters. Mm. Oh. I just, who did your tummy? Yeah, that was my tum-tum. That was my tun-tum-tum.

Hey, guys, I reckon that was the most fun I've ever had on a show. Not for me Vaughan Now we're even close Now we're even close You haven't been here long have you No I haven't No if you were listening and you had fun
