The ZM Podcast Network. The Fleach, Vaughan and Hayley Big Pod. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fleach, Vaughan and Hayley. Hayley's back. Relax, guys.

I'm back. With your bowl of mints. I'm back and I've come in hot with a bowl of mints and a link for Vaughan to buy some expensive pickled onions. Not like hotel mints or restaurant mints. No, mints. Like mints and a link for Vaughan to buy some expensive pickled onions. Not like hotel mints or restaurant mints. No, mints. Like mints. And again, do we need to bring back our segment, Mints Mints?

Reheated mints. Mexican mints. I want a protein buzz. She did not have time to make some eggs or a smoothie, so I grabbed some of last night's mints. It's delicious. I love a bit of mints. It's got some black beans in it, some tomatoes. Stinks out the studio, doesn't it? Oh, I imagine it absolutely wrecks with mints. It's delicious. I love a bit of mints. It's got some black beans in it, some tomatoes.

Stinks out the studio, doesn't it? Oh, I imagine it absolutely wrecks with mints. But it's not affecting me because I can taste the mints. Bit of spice. The top six on the way. Let me check. Yes, it is. Six things to do with my leftover mints.

You just literally came up with this 20 minutes ago. How have you already forgotten? Because there's a lot of days. Tell me about some of these days. Top six days. Top six days. The top six jobs for the lifeguard at the Olympics, which is weird. You've got the world's best swimmers and divers and people who literally

live in the water, synchronise dance in the water, but they've still got a lifeguard on duty. So I've got the top six jobs for the lifeguard at the Olympic pools. It's coming up. It's going to make me feel good. With the Olympics overnight, we'll next touch on all the action, all of the medals that we've won.

Oh, my God. Per capita, New Zealand must be number one. We must be near the top. We've got to win one first. Yeah, once we win one, boy, we're going to be up there. We're per capita, baby. Woo-hoo! Play. ZM's Fletchvorn

and Hayley. Today is Tuesday, July 30th. It is day three of the Olympic Games. Officially. Officially. 7am this morning, our women's quarterfinal against China in the Rugby Sevens. Yep. China. What do you mean?

Didn't have them pegged as a Sevens nation. Oh, yeah. Because they've never won, like, the Sevens comp. Men's or women's? Yeah. Women's. Okay, now, have we won a medal yet? No.

No, no, no, no, no, no. We do have... Not even a bronze. Nope. We do have Erica Fairweather in the swimming women's 200 metre freestyle final at 7.48am this morning. Very particular. Very specific. Very specific time.

Very specific. Could they have not done it at 10.02 or quarter two? 48? Yeah, keep it round. Keep it on the quarters or the fives or the tens. Yeah. No need to go on the twos. He's French.

We have not. What else is happening? Will the triathlon go ahead? Heavy rain last week during the twos. He's French. We have not. What else is happening? Will the triathlon go ahead? Heavy rain last week during the opening ceremony. May recall apparently hasn't helped the fact that the Sien River is already full of poos. Birdie yuck! More poos has washed downstream. More

rain equals more poos in the river. Apparently we've got a good chance in the mountain bike cross country. Sam Gaze. 12.10am. The English coming. So that's coming. News overnight.

The English swimmer Adam Peaty got a silver medal despite afterwards testing positive for COVID. God. What? I mean, you must be so much better than everyone else. I've got to imagine if he didn't have COVID. He tested positive for COVID, but complained of a sore throat after losing out on his third consecutive gold on Sunday night. God, the test tested positive. I was watching,

because you must be so nervous, because I follow Simone Biles like a hawk. Thinks she's incredible. And she was saying how nervous they get to not get COVID. You don't even think now. They would just destroy four years of work. Yeah, totally. I saw her doing like some kind of

double... Flick flacks. The Biles too. It's her move. The Biles too. She is insane. And she did that after having like a calf injury. Like the day before. She's like unbeatable. She's amazing. There was a Olympic

swimmer. Wait, are you in love with her? No. Kind of sounds like you were. She's too small. Too small for you in love with her? No. Kind of sounds like you were. She's too small. No, she's tiny. Too small for you, yeah. I would crush the poor woman. Where is she from? A South African swimmer.

Brazilian swimmer, sorry. She got sent home for sneaking her boyfriend into the Olympic Village. Like disciplinary action. Yeah. Gustavo Utsuka. I'll just say Vaughan. I'll be sending you a link of this Brazilian swimmer.

I'm already on it. For a reason. Just for research. Sure, just, I was going to send it to anyone and I just chose Vaughan. There's only three of us here. I've already got the article. I'll just get some support from Vaughan.

Okay. Yeah, she received a warning but then got sent home because she was sneaking her boyfriend around. No. As a result, Gabriel Santos was given a warning. That sounds like a boy's name. Oh, that's her boyfriend. We're not playing here or taking a vacation.

No, that's the head of the Brazilian Swimming. I'm sorry. Come on, we need details when we're Googling Brazilian Swimmers. She does own a silly dog. Got a Pomeranian. And they're at the Olympics? Yeah. No, no, no.

It was just on social media. Oh, right. I know. Almost a deal breaker. Why would you send your athletes home for something like... You want the medals. Cut a couch here too. Cut a couch.

Our men's 49er, which isn't quite nice, but it's okay. It's nearly nice, isn't it? Isaac Mahadi and William McKenzie are still in top spot in the sailing at the Olympics. So that could be a medal. We just need one to get the per capita. We're clambering for medals. We just need one so we can divide the per capita. Who are the people that we were like, that's our golds?

You know, where's our Eric Murray's and our... And the other guy. I don't know who was our... What about the shop pop guy? Yeah. Tom. Jacko and Tom.

Yeah. They're units. But then some Balor Russian always comes out the blocks. Absolutely. Oh, yeah. Jacked on the roids. Yeah.

Do we need to get Beatrice Farmore in a back? I think so. Dame Beatrice. Yep. Could be. Get her on the RC of a think so. Dame Beatrice. Could be. Get her on the arse. Get Beatrice and Val back.

Yeah. Right, well, so far, no. We're proud of our athletes. We're sounding like we're sitting here. I'm sitting here eating a bowl of mints, you know, and probably not going to go to the gym today. And here I am being like, where's my bloody gold? We're proud of them.

Having done absolutely nothing. Having done nothing. Anywhere close to getting a medal. No, exactly. But, you know, it'll be nice. Nice to get on there because Perk Abra let you say. It just gets us excited, doesn't it? I know.

12 past six. Next on the show, if you're looking for an excuse to play Fortnite. Dom, you know me. Our study is here to back you up. Why playing Fortnite is good. Why would you bring this up on the show, Fletch? Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Well, great news.

If you need an excuse to jump on Fortnite, and I guess any game really, but this study did, I guess, use Fortnite as the basis for it. But Hayley, you were on my yesterday. Vaughn and Jared were talking about the new pirate game. Jared was the victim of homophobia on the high seas. Beg your pardon?

Yeah, because we always fly the rainbow flag. We've fly the pride flag on the tax man as we're out collecting our dues from, you know, the islands and the bountiful treasures that the ocean has to offer. Of course. And some guy hunted him down because he had the pride flag up and told him never to fly the flag. I know. Outrageous. Homophobia on the high seas.

Who would have thought? And he was a pirate with an earring in the gay ear. So, jokes on him. If you're a pirate, I'd put it in the gay ear. Yeah. Yeah. Which one is the gay ear again? It's looking at you.

It's your right. You can just tell. Your right ear left me looking at you. Right. Okay. I'm good at sniffing down. A study's been done. It looked your right. You can just tell. Your right ear left me looking at you. Right. Okay. I'm good at sniffing down. A study's been done. It looked at gamers.

I don't know why I said you're good at sniffing down homosexuals. It's sort of a strange thing. The study's out of Norway. And just a sidebar, the average age of a gamer, 33 years old. Oh, my God. Did you think they would be younger or... Nah, if you look at the image of gaming now, it's like

money and the setup and the chair and the lights and everything. You probably have to have a little bit behind you. 48% of gamers female. That's interesting. That's interesting. Yeah. See, maybe you need to jump on the plate. Oh, get off. Absolutely not. Well, this study out of Norway found that adults that spend more time playing Fortnite Battle Royale

and play to interact with friends report that they have an increased network of friends. Yeah, I can see that. I think we're chucking around the word friend quite loosely here. Like, it feels equivalent of a Facebook friend. And it also does boost wellbeing. So people are happier. Well, you get to socialise with people without having to leave your home.

But is it socialising? Yeah, because you chat like... I suppose it is. It's just catching up. When we're playing on Friday night, that's all it is. It's just hanging out with your mates on Friday night and doing something while you're doing it. Kind of like a Zoom, but you're shooting each other.

Yeah! Yeah, that's good fun. Yeah. And then you might be down, and then someone's like, I've got someone I can invite to the game, and then they invite them, and then you're like, oh, okay, this person seems cool, and then you're chatting with them.

I thought you meant down, like you might be feeling a bit down in the dumps. How deep does a chat go in the middle of a game of Fortnite or whatever? Everybody just talks about anything. It's not like, where you at mentally? There might be a how's everybody? I remember during lockdowns and stuff, there was the, how's everybody going?

It got deep and stuff, but I mean, as deep as you want it to get. We've talked about some fairly philosophical things. Do you always feel good once you log off or you go to bed? Yeah, dude, because I'm boozed, it's midnight, and I've just been hanging out with my mates for, like, five and a half hours. It rules.

You're adding in a key ingredient there. Yeah. That is enhancing your fun. Everybody's always having a drink, you know. It's just socialising, but the best part about it is how cheap it is. Yep. And you don't have to, like, leave your house. Yeah.

Yeah, that's true. It's my ideal socialising. It does, this article kind of does point out that studies about gaming have always been negative. They've always looked at the negative aspects. The physical, yeah. But, and, you know, addiction and that kind of thing. But they only now are just kind of starting to look at the good aspects. Yeah.

It's almost a bit of a dopamine hit, isn't it? Yeah. Having a bit of fun. I mean, there's a difference between a difference between using it as a social occasion and sitting on it eight hours a day. Yeah, and not engaging with anyone else.

Yeah, yeah. In real life. How do you think if we were referring outside of your friend group, Vaughan, of the lads who play, how do you think

the gaggle would go if our group of predominantly, we would have to fly the flag. I think the gaggle would be better on the pirate game. We'd all have it in the game. Fortnite would be very panicky.

Many flags are flapping. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Panicky. We could have a fleet of ships. Do you think the gaggle would be panicky? I think that'd be panicky. In Fortnite. In Fortnite, that'd be excessively panicky.

I don't know. We've got a lot of great minds in that group. But that's why I think the pirate, you know. I can just imagine there'd be sing-alongs on the pirate game. There would be sing-alongs. There'd be cocktails. What are we drinking over here? Rum-based cocktails.

Yeah. It could definitely happen. Oh, well, it's very interesting. The woman thing interests me. If you need an excuse to play, there you go. There it is. It's good for you. Boost your well-being.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Bl play, there you go. There it is. It's good for you. Boost your well-being. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. This is the Top Six. A lifeguard at the Olympics has retrieved Emma Webber, who is a USA swimmer's, swim cap from the pool during the woman's 100-meter breaststroke. You got into her speedo? Yep.

Nip down into... How did that thing come off? They're so tight. Have you seen people, all the swimmers showing how they get their caps on? They're incredible. They're tight. Do people talcum? Do people still talcum to get a swim cap on? No. Nobody talcums. Are they talcuming to get

the slip on? Most people pull it down and get someone else to pull one side and pull over their whole head. I bet it pulls hair, something rotten. Oh yeah, you shave off your hair. And then once it's in there, well anyway, he dived in, got it out, the crowd went, the rapturous applause. Yeah. So I've got the top six jobs for lifeguards at the Olympics. Because it's not saving people.

They're the world's best swimmers. There's that funny meme from the Tokyo Olympics where there's just some sad or just tired looking lifeguard behind all the swimmers and it's like, just remember, there's a lifeguard at the Olympics. Oh yeah,

if you ever think about being useless, at least you're not a lifeguard at the swimming Olympics. Well, there's a lot of other jobs for them to do. Okay. Here's the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics.

Number six, getting a plaster out of the pool. Oh, yuck. Always see plasters when I swim. Or a chunk of hair. Like a big hair monster.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Get that out of the pool. What is it about a plaster, right? Because it would probably be quite clean at that point. Still gross.

It was covering someone's blood. Yeah, someone's wound. It's never as gross as when your fingers go through a clump of hair. And you just feel the hair go between your webbing. Yuck.

Number five on the list of the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics. Very important job. Testing the pH. Oh, yeah, you've got to test the pH. Yep. We want that at seven. We want that bang on seven. Not high, not low.

We can't have anybody getting sore eyes. No. Or thrush. Oh. If you get into a pool with a bung pH, does it affect the... I don't know. Can it give you thrush? Also, those togs, though, they sit high.

They're right up there. Number four on the list of the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics are straight in the lane divider floaty things. Oh, yep, yep. Do they have those at the Olympics? Yeah. They'd have to have some sort of dividers, wouldn't they? Yeah, they have dividers.

Stay in your lane. Mind you, at the Olympics, you'd hope you could swim straight. Oh, my God, you imagine the backstroke and they're all like, woo, woo, woo, woo. Yeah. They're the world's best, but they're swimming twice as far because they're weaving back and forth all across it. Number three on the list of the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics

are reminding people not to run on the wet concrete. Oh yeah, they love doing that. No running. No running. Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet. No running. Number two on the list

of the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics is making sure no one's spitting in the toilets. There's always a sign that says no spitting.

There's always a sign. I think it's a urinal thing. No spitting in the toilets. It's an everywhere thing. Who's spitting that much? It demands a sign. And I think it's a urinal thing. No spitting in the toilet. it's an everywhere thing. Who's spitting that much? It demands a sign.

These people who spit. The signs are in different languages as well. It's one of these ones. Real hoiki.

Yeah. There's also a sign for using the hair dryer only for your hair. Not for your pubes. Not for your pubes. Not for your pubes. Well, that's also how you can run that jurisdiction.

Some people do that in the changing rooms. You can't tuck them in there wet. No squatting up on the toilet seat. Oh, yeah. Oh, I love those signs. Yeah. If you could squat up there and get all your poos and wheeze down into the bowl, you should be allowed.

You should be allowed. Almost a commendation. And number one on the list of the top six jobs for the lifeguards at the Olympics. Telling people if their bits have fallen out. Oh, yeah. Like you've got a bit of side ball. Yeah, ball might fall out the side of the speedo. Titty might come out the side.

Tip of the paint. Tip of the paint's hanging out. To the... Yeah. Well, there's not much covering it. Tip of the paint. Jeez. Someone's tucked it up.

Top or bottom? Out the top or the bottom? Both. Have we tucked? Both. Yeah, tucked? Both. Yeah, right? Both. Gosh.

Absolutely. Which would be more aerodynamic would be tucking it down, wouldn't it? Yes. Or up. We could use it as a keel. But sometimes some people tuck sideways and that just seems like that would be a big aerodynamic. Yeah, it'd be like a keel on a boat. It'd be pushing you one way.

Most athletes do tuck sideways. Not that I've spent a great amount of time staring at the crotches of athletes. But some of their uniforms leave little to the imagination. Always hook into a left or right. Yeah.

Well, no, you wouldn't tuck it straight down if you were running. You might pinch it between your thighs. Fletch is just delving into us.

Someone's done a poll. Oh, yeah. Cora's done a question poll. Oh, and when tucking. When wearing a speedo or brace, do you pull it up or do you tuck it? Pull it up.

Yeah. Seeing a little at the top would be so mortifying. But that'd be pubeless, wouldn't they, as well? The swimmers. Yeah. Because they shave their legs and stuff. Again, I've not seen too much time. Reddit's done a two years ago, how to hide your penis when swimming.

Fantastic. What have they got to say? How to hide your penis when swimming. Well, just have they got to say? How to hide your penis when swimming. Well, just for the aerodynamicy, yeah. The tuck. There's a lot of websites. Would you give it a drag tuck almost? Like a drag queen? That's what they're saying,

yeah. You could pre-tape up the bum and then put the speedos on top. And then you're getting less resistance, yeah. Well, we're solving all the problems here. If you're about to go swimming this morning, congratulations if your pain has some resistance on it.

Tuck it back. Anytime I'm doing any sort of exercise, mine just retracts like a turtle. Just goes back up inside. That's great. Yeah, I know. I'm pretty stoked with it actually. That's perfect. So you've just got the shell there though. Yeah. Very protected from predators. That's perfect. So you've just got the shell there, though. Yeah. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Very protected from predators.

Yeah. That is today's top six. Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM. I chronically buy mints. Not mints. Herbs. I'm thinking of mint.

Mints. Herbs. The little pottle things. Yeah, mints. All the time. At the supermarket. I have them on my little counter and they stay there and they look ugly and they're not part of the aesthetic but I love to have fresh herbs and then they last for a couple of days.

You can buy those fresh herbs in the little plastic containers or the bags but they don't last as long either. I go that way for coriander because in the pothole, coriander's the worst. Just so stringy. And then the moment you take the plastic off. Because I had a basil one the other day,

and I took like a few off for dinner. Were you making? Just basil. He was just eating basil for dinner. I was just eating basil. That's so good. I was just eating basil. He just ate a few leaves for dinner.

That's when I made my red Thai curry chicken meatballs. Oh, yeah. Which were amazing. Did you go Thai basil or you just went normal basil? I did just the supermarket pottle. He doesn't see race when it comes to basil. Yeah, I don't see. Thank you.

I don't see race when I see basil. It's just all basil is great. Yeah. And so, and then I was like, plop, plop, plop, plop, plop, plop. Yeah. And then the next day. Yeah. Oh, they shit themselves. I was ready for a round two plop, plop, plop, plop, plop. Yeah. And then the next day. Yeah. Oh, they shit themselves.

I was ready for a round two of basil here. But are you watering it? Are you repotting it? It was already. No, you just leave it there. It was already. The soil was moist. The way to make them last is you sit them in like a little ramekin and you just keep topping

the ramekin up with water and the soil absorbs it that way. Yeah. Because if you, you can drown them by going on the top. Right. And don't sit them in direct sunlight because I'm pretty sure they've never seen direct sunlight in their entire little lives. So this is a global issue

because these little things are available everywhere. Herbs, the pot herbs. And there is, they did a big study on it and they bought them and they took photos of all the plants from different supermarkets around the UK and then took them a photo of them a few days later.

All the coriander was like, bleh, spilled out onto the bench, yellow, and they get those sticky black leaves. You know when it goes

all weepy? Yeah, the bags of coriander stay in the fridge for like a week. Those ones are the way, that's the way to go. You know what you're supposed to do is take them out

and put them in a Sistema, in an actual like airtight container makes them last a little bit longer. Anyway, so they did this and the theory behind it, what do you call a gardener, a grower? A grower, chimed in to be

like, yeah, no wonder. So they're sold in supermarkets. Thank you. Sold in supermarkets to look good, not last. Right. So they're there so that they serve one day, they die and you have to buy another one. It's money making.

Right. Then this horticulturalist said, they're grown in heated greenhouses in ultimate conditions, often receiving 18 hours of artificial light a day, so more light than a house would ever get. So they grow real fast. So they grow super fast, makes them grow tall really quickly, but the size is misleading because they're actually still immature plants.

So the moment you take them out of those environments and start plucking them. And you start ripping leaves off them. They're like, well, I'm not ready to be plucked. I'm not ready to be plucked. I'm not ready yet. So then they get massive in three weeks and you buy them. And the moment you rip the plastic top half off,

that's the only thing structurally that was keeping them up and making them look good. Because they're immature. They haven't got, if you grow basil and mint and everything, the stalks are like stiff and rigid. And they grow thicker and thicker and that's why you can keep just like ripping at them. Mint is unstoppable though.

That mint that you buy in the little pottles, you could totally strip that and then pop that in a pot and it would take again but always put it in a pot. You've got to plant them. That's the thing.

And because as well, like when you plant herbs, you're supposed to separate them all out together whereas I've got quite a few seedlings in this thing crammed into that tiny little pot. They're not supposed to,

they will never grow and grow and grow and grow. The only time I've ever successfully done it, and it wasn't even me, was I left an old, mangled, half-chewed up mint thing on the counter of Aaron's parents' house. Yeah. And his mum, bless her, was just like, oh, shove it in a pot.

And it went crazy. Oh, wow. So they're not supposed, they're basically designed to die. And that's why Because they're just grown In these like Greenhouses

So you've really got to use them And like I didn't even get Two nights in a row I think I just You've really got to use them Immediately Almost better to just

Cut them and put them in the fridge Yeah Like in a container Yeah Or put them in a pot And grow them And then they'll be the gift That keeps giving

Give a man a fish Coriander's a piece of shit though. Like, strange. It goes to seed so quick in the garden. You're like, oh, the coriander's ready. And then it's like, just buy a big bag for three bucks. It's honestly the way to go. We don't live in a great coriander

climate either. Do we? It's so weak. It's so soft. It just gets blown away. Some people don't like it. It tastes like soap. I love it. I love it.

I want some now. Somebody said they buy their living herbs from an actual garden centre. And they've grown so much and they don't die fast like the supermarket ones because they've actually been in conditions that resemble real life. Could you leave them in your kitchen? Because I live in an apartment, so I can't really put them in the garden. No, you'd need them on the window. You'd need to build a little window box.

I'm not doing that. No, just keep buying your little baggies of coriander. I'm not doing that. I just want to buy my little baggies. I'll bitch and whinge about my problem. Make no effort. No. But I'll just, yeah, you can't put a price on a good whinge.

Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Silly little pole. Silly little pole. It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole. Silly little pole. Silly little pole.

Silly little pole. Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole is about doing wheeze in public pools today. The US swimmers admit it happens. You need to go wheeze and then you get in to start your race and then... The warmth and the wetness. What temperature are they rocking the Olympic pool at? Oh, I don't know. Temperature of Olympic pool.

A nice, like, 18 or something? No, that would be cold. 21, 21. 18's cold in water. Maybe you don't want too warm. Maybe hot and sluggish. There must be a temperature. It must be.

How warm is an Olympic pool? Olympic swimming questions answered. This was two days ago on Metro. Great. Gold Medal Homes. It is between 25 and 28 degrees Celsius. Olympic pool. Olympic swimming questions answered. This was two days ago on Metro. Great. Gold medal home. It is between 25 and 28 degrees Celsius. Wow.

Okay. That's hot. That's hot. It's not when you feel water. Yeah, true. It's not like having the heat pump on 26.

That's hot. No, that's hot. Yeah. It's far too hot. It's far too hot. Far too hot. 21. Even ours,

when I looked, it was 23. I was like, you're insane. You know what? Out of all the sports, though, like, that's the best place if you do need to go wheeze in the middle of a game or a heat. Yeah.

Like, you think of rugby players. How many times rugby or league players have been busted squatting on a pitch? I know, but what about marathon runners that just, like, shat themselves and stuff? They just pee down their legs and everything. They just keep going. Go in your pants. Have you ever peed in a public pool? Three options.

And so evenly split. Oh my God, this is gross. I swim in pools all the time. Do you pee? No. I always get out. Pee in the ocean though. Never.

Yes. 33%. Never have peed in a pool. Never pee in the pool. Okay. 31% said yes All the time All the time

36% said yes But only once or twice I think I'd be in that Category If I'm being honest I think years ago I would have peed in a pool When you were a kid

Yeah Wow But then they told you that myth About the chemical That would go Fluorogreen Orange Or orange or whatever

Purple And we were told purple Purple okay Yeah We never did it again Did you? So really evenly split But if you had to go with Like yes that would go fluoro green or orange or whatever. And we were told purple. Purple, okay. I mean, never did it again, did you? So really evenly split. But if you had to go with like, yes, it's two thirds of people, yes. Only one third of people said never.

That is disgusting. Come on, people. Thank you. Carl replied saying, no way, I'm scared of that blue dye. So there you go. Yes, blue. We were all told this urban legend as kids. Yeah. They put a dye in the pool and it was activated by urine.

Wasn't it when you were wearing a wetsuit, like if you were rafting, they were like, don't pay. If somebody asked this wetsuit, the warmth would change the colour of the wetsuit. That was a lie too. Gel writes, what the F? I never want to swim in a pool again. What is wrong with people?

This is all on capitals and lots of punctuation. Like I'm shocked. I feel like I've been living in my happy piss-free bubble until this. What is wrong with people? This is all on capitals and lots of punctuation. Like, I'm shocked. I feel like I've been living in my happy, piss-free bubble until this. What is wrong with you people? Piss everywhere. Emma says, those that said never are totally lying. You're telling me as a kid they never weed in a pool? Liars. Yeah.

Lucy, would a polo player and swimmer growing up, so at least eight times a week, I'd wee in the pool. What? Lucy, no. That's yuck, man. I mean, there is chlorine. It's treated, yes, but come on. That's what the chlorine is treated. Fill it up with the wees.

Because that's what, um, over summer I'm told to put this acid into our pool, and you don't put that normally into a standard pool because so many people are urinating in it. Okay. Bronte says, I'm sorry, but I have a small bladder, so many people are urinating in it. Okay. Bronte says, I'm sorry,

but I have a small bladder so I'm not getting out every five minutes to piss when the chlorine's there to clean these things. Wow, Bronte's just frowning. Dang it. Brave.

Shots fired. People who say no are liars. Clementine, when I swam competitively at training, we sometimes weren't allowed to get out to pee. We were told to pee

as we were. What? Oh, Yuck. Sarah said, not in a pool, but I'm definitely an ocean lake river peer. Oh, yeah, same. The ocean's different. But then you've got to get out real quick because the sharks smell it. The urine?

Yeah, and then they'll come in at you. Oh, God. I thought that was just menstruation. No, it's everything that comes out of your brain. All of it. It's more the bears on land for the menstruation. Oh, yeah, right. You've got to be careful.

Laura said, look, I know I'm a grot, but there's so much chlorine, surely it just fizzles away. Fizzles away. Fizzles away. Anonymous wrote saying, first of all, they wrote, Thailand, swim up bar, 12 hours in the pool. Enough said. Oh, I feel like cocktails. They followed that up with, after much consideration, they wrote Thailand swim up bar 12 hours in the pool enough said and then

they followed that up with after much consideration could I please keep this anonymous and so I can't see their name obviously they sent

that and they were just riddled with I shouldn't have said that and left my name attached to it at all what happens in

Thailand though stays in Thailand wow not everything bad tattoos rashes. They come home. And STIs will definitely come home with you. Oh, yeah, they come home on the plane with you. Yeah.

That's a little pop. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. The female sevens team, 24 to 5 against China ahead. How are we? So yesterday we played China for the last of the Pool A games and we won 43-5. And now we're playing them in the quarterfinals but we're in the same pool as them.

How does that work? I don't know. Maybe China's got a couple of teams. We're just numbers alone. When you've got a billion people, you have two. Well, that game's in the bag, isn't it? 24-5 currently.

Yeah, okay, good. But then we don't win a medal, right? We've got to keep going. Got to keep going. Yeah, there's a few more. Keep going. Quarterfinals means there's four teams, and then there'll be the...

They could be the first medal for New Zealand. Maybe. Well, they better be. We're getting impatient now. We're raising the bar. We're sitting here doing nothing. Cool, we're just twiddling our thumbs for three days. Yeah.

No, again, to reiterate, we're incredibly proud of you. Now, we would like to provide our listeners with perhaps some free birth control. Not in the shape of hormonal pills or even a classic condom, but from stories from parents of the awful things their kids have done. And this has become like a trend on TikTok where people say, here, let me provide you some free birth control.

This is a great one I listened to. A mum made a bit of a discovery that her daughter did. My daughter got into my nail glue and I didn't know what it was at first. So I tried to wipe it up with toilet paper and now there's toilet paper stuck to my side table. And oh, to top it off, my fire stick remote is stuck to my side table.

Like I physically can't get it off. So that's her TV remote. Yeah. And nail glue, I don't feel like nail glue should be that strong, but she's like glued it and you can see when she's pulling it, it's going to pull up the veneer kind of thing, like the paint and all that strong. But she's like glued it and you can see when she's pulling it, it's going to pull up the

veneer kind of thing, like the paint and all that. So the table's ruined. Table's ruined, nail glue's ruined, I'll say the remote's ruined. That's a shortened version. She really goes on because she's like she's been a real pain in my ass all day, today, and now she does this and it's awful.

Should have been supervising your children. Put your mic on, Horne. Yeah, just turn it on then. We've got a nice, loud, good voice, but for the nation to hear you. She should have been watching a kid and had her nail glue in a better spot. Here you come.

How old is this kid? Shut up. How old is the kid? We don't know. You're saying your kid's never got into anything? Yeah, like every now and then, but not nail glue. Sometimes it just looks, like every now and then, but not now, Glo. Sometimes, it just looks

like, especially travelling around and seeing people with their kids and stuff. Well, you mentioned the crying baby. There was a crying baby twice on my two big flights. Not crying. Like screaming. That, like, when it hits the roof. Yeah. It does.

I'm sure there's a lot of joy in it, Vaughan. I'm sure there's a lot of joy in it, Vaughan. I'm sure there's joy. Are you about to tell us about the joy of having kids? Because I feel like I don't ever see a parent that looks that happy. Sometimes I just say, I was like, you look exhausted. You look worn out. Yeah.

Or pretty are. Yeah. But no, there's good points. I feel like I'm talking to the wrong audience here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think you just can't think of anything to say. I'm waiting for the good points. Can you not think of anything? The pride.

The money. All the money you spend. The pride, et cetera, et cetera. Oh, man. The pride. There's so much pride, et cetera, et cetera. You said yesterday, August hasn't even won a game of, what is she playing?

Netball. Netball. Yeah. What is she, a New Zealand Olympian? I'm sorry. That was so mean. We're proud of them. We're proud of them.

Look, the medals will come. The medals will come. The medals will come. We're on the per capita table. We're just going to get that one medal. No, but anyway, sorry. Carry on. You pride.

Yeah. I'm done. It's just pride. Okay, pride. Because I, carry on. You pride. Pride. Yep. I'm done. It's just pride. Okay, pride. Because I'm proud of lots of things. I'm proud of my friends and I'm proud of... There's lots of good stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's ups and downs. It just feels like the list is short. Yeah. Whereas I can think of the list of birth control reasons, the money, the time, the physical demands. Somebody said that they had that child on a 12-hour flight. I'm a solo mum. The kid was just losing his mind.

I was trying my best. Some dude came and held a Bible over my child and said he was taking the devil out of me. I'd try anything in 12 hours. I'd try anything at that stage. I'd even be like, look, if your God can calm this down, I'm sorry you had that. Those are the kind of stories we want to hear

because we want to have a go at this online trend. Of providing free birth control by sharing the horror stories of your kids. And obviously we know you love them. And literally, I'm always like, all my friends who have kids look so exhausted, but they're also like, this is the greatest thing I've ever done with my life.

Yeah, totally. Guess I'll never know. We were just sharing a story about a friend who had a birth experience that may want you to never have a kid. These are the stories they should tell you at sex ed. Oh my god. Yeah, rather than like

here's how you get pregnant and here's how you roll a condom on a banana. They should be like listen to this kid scream. Listen to these stories. They should be like this one. My son ate his own poo when he was one year old. I thought he was eating a sausage until I realised we didn't have nor had had recently sausages. So he's holding it like a log. Good on him though having a logable.

Also good luck explaining that at your 21st when mum reels out that story. Oh my God. Just don't ever mention it. He doesn't need to know he did it. It's so good. So many. Okay, let's take some calls. Anonymous, what is your free birth control story?

We're travelling from Australia back to New Zealand to visit some family. And my daughter was about eight weeks old. And we were just taking off. So once we, you know, I could put her into the bassinet in the plane, and as we were about five or ten minutes within the air, and my eight-week-old projectile vomited all over myself and the guy in his suit next to me. Oh! I mean, it's okay to wear your own child's vomit vomit but if another child vomited on me on a flight Can I just say Anonymous right at the start of the story

when you said I was on a flight home from Australia with my 8 week old both Fletch and Hayley pulled the fingers at the phone They thought they were going to get away with that They looked at the phone and pulled the fingers at you because you're travelling with a baby I'm just saying maybe take the P&O

next time What is the outcome of vomiting on this man in a suit? the baby. I'm just saying maybe take the P&O next time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What is the outcome of vomiting on this man in a suit? He was actually pretty good about it. I mean, I don't think he would have got off the plane great about it, but the air hostess just basically cleaned us up and helped clean him

up and then changed the bassinet, but to be fair, I didn't put her back in after that because I didn't want her to do it again. Oh my god. Shout out to that guy for keeping it cool. Shout out to you. I feel like he must have had kids himself at some stage, because if you hadn't had kids, you

probably wouldn't wear it as good, eh? Same with the flight attendant, eh? You'd be like, I'll just deal with this. Anonymous, thank you. Yvette, what is your free birth control story? Morning My Our five year old

My I was going to say You were like my No actually it's his I'm not claiming it by myself So our five year old Decided to ride his pooter On our brand new

Board driveway They're so expensive It was so Honestly it was like A mini mortgage in itself And we had saved up for years to do this Had explained to everyone, do not go near it And then my husband looked out the window

Saw that the five-year-old had been doing full laps on it So it was obviously dry enough to ride on, but the wheels sunken? Yeah. It was, it was, it was been poured that morning. And so it was probably three, four o'clock. Oh no. Okay. Because if it was still wet, you could have fixed it.

It was still wet. Oh no. And so what, have you just got marks in the driveway now? Yeah. Oh no. Oh no. Wow. Because that would have Oh, no. Wow. Because that would have,

in the 90s, could you not get like a nice layer on top just skimmed on? I mean, that's more money, right? They cracked up and just said

Scriber's name and it's there for life. Wow. See, in the 90s, they all got a big hiding for that. You probably would have

had your face pushed into the conference. It was an imprint of you. Sort of a forever imprint of your criminal activities. Oh, my God. See, that's a great birth control story. Yeah, thank you. Juliet, what's your birth control story?

I was at a friend's wedding chatting with a mutual friend, and it was kids invited. My four-year-old daughter... They both just pulled the fingers at the phone again. My four-year-old daughter was toilet training at the time and she was dancing around the hall

with a whole lot of other kids and my friend suddenly said, this was a childless friend, suddenly said to me, what's that brown thing on the floor? And I walked over and my daughter comes up to me and says, mummy, I pooped. We're on the dance floor.

Yeah. We're on the dance floor. Shiver me timbers. So what did you do? Do you go over with, you know, the beautiful, nice fine linen napkins that they've hired and pick it up? No, luckily I had a tissue in my pocket and just picked it up and put it in the bin

and tried to not make it obvious. Oh, dear. Far out. Just logging on the floor. Logging. Do you know what? It's so funny. Someone, as you were telling this story,

someone texted and saying, oh, we're doing poo stories, aren't we? Oh, God. Okay. It's endless. Juliet, thanks for your call. Some messages in. Your free birth control stories.

This is a mild one. Someone says, my youngest fell asleep on the couch and two of his oldest siblings have been watching prank videos on YouTube, so they drew all over his face, but they drew it with a permanent marker that would not come off. It would take days, right? Oh, and we just rub in that face more.

Kids shit everywhere. Never ends. So when somebody starts, from fighting, trying to change the nappy, him rolling away, crawled through it, did it, took the nappy off, smear it all over the wall, smear it all through the nappy, shifted in the sleep, woke up, smear it all through the bed.

It happens. All this stuff. Like, I looked after a baby once I forgot to tuck the peen and then the mum got home and was like he is soaking wet because you're supposed to tuck it down so that it doesn't spray up

and he peed and it'll go all over his body I was like I didn't know who's trusting you I was like look he's alive a. Who's trusting you to look at him? I was like, look, he's alive. A couple of margaritas like, this is easy. I had a couple of wines. He was alive, but soaking wet. I walked around all morning

in public wondering why I could smell poo. I kept checking my toddler's nappy. No poo, no poo. I'd unknowingly smeared poo on my face while changing the nappy earlier in the day. I also once had a super spewy baby and I can't count the amount of times I had to catch his vomit in my cleavage

to save other people's carpet and food. Put it in here. The baby goes, just turned straight in. These are great stories. Really? I work with all women so I'm constantly hearing these horror stories that puts me off having a baby. Here's the short version. 10 pounds, 22 stitches.

That made my bits wince. Are you wincing down there? I'm wincing down there. I was wincing down there after you showed me that gymnast that just mounted the bar. She runs and she flips and just straight on the pubis. Is this this Olympics? Was that from this Olympics?

No, it was from the World Championships. When'd she hit? My straight on the pubis. Is this this Olympics? Was that from this Olympics? No, it was from the World Champs. When'd she hit? My son was in year three. I headed along to one of the parent-teacher interviews. When she sat us down, she just straight up burst into tears and continued to say she didn't know how to deal with my kid and needed help.

Use protection. Shake my head. Oh my God. We're not really trying to put people off having kids. I feel terrible. Someone said, hubby and I are paying for IVF. We're 12 weeks in. Can I get a refund?

Yeah, pull out. Yeah, no, you can't do that. My four-year-old son last night bought $200 worth of games on the husband's PlayStation account. My husband wasn't happy because it's $200 of games that he would never play. Oh, right. Yeah, at least buy games so we can all play.

Yeah. My partner was changing a nappy, and somehow our boy, this sounds like a soccer player in the making, kicked up a poo and I'd get straight into her mouth. What do you mean? Like a trick, like a hemi-sack. Just a great little kick. Watch my auntie give birth to her fourth child.

It's strange to be your auntie's birth. What an interesting relationship you must have with your auntie. What a great, interesting dynamic there. Did she do it in the middle of the lounge unexpectedly? Maybe. And they're like, get the chips off. We need the paper. We need the paper.

Keep the paper down. Get the sauce out the way. Somebody said, I've just had a baby. We've mutually decided between the two of us that we will not take this child on a flight until they're at least seven years old. Because we've dealt with it before. That is great. That is good. Oh yes, someone said when my mate with a kid told me that you've got to suck the snot out of the nose when they can't breathe properly. I've seen a friend do that.

There's machines, right? There's machines. The best part about it was we had an antenatal, a Maori woman, and she was talking about, somebody asked about that, and she was like, look, there's these machines, but how we do it down at the marae. And she was just like, you go suck the, you put your nose. And I tell you what, she's not wrong. It's gross, but it works way better than that little sucky thing.

That does not work. I'm trying to drink my delicious coffee. Imagine it was miso soup. It could be so much worse. Someone said, oh, here's one for you. Had a kid 20 years ago. Thanks for the cosy, livy cry. Still at home.

There's some free birth control. There you go. Yeah, they don't leave, do they? They don't leave. Nah, they don't. Two words. Impacted stool. Parents that are about to deal with this know immediately,

yeah, that's... What does that sound like when it clogs up? It clogs, basically, and it backs up, and it just keeps getting more and more and more. How do you get it out? Compacted. Suck, put your... No. No.

Come on, admit it. Admit it. Down at the bottom. Down at the bottom. This is how it's done. Dunedin Millionaire is dedicating $25 million to help people buy homes in Dunedin. What?

His name's Roger. G'day, Rog. Fruit Trail. I believe. Apologies if I'm saying that wrong, Roger. This is great. So what he's just got so much money is like, you know what? I want to help some people.

Yeah. I like this. Provide up to 250 first-time buyers with around $100,000 each for deposits on affordable homes he plans to build across the city. Oh my God. For a first home, $100,000 would go a long way. Yeah, he is giving you basically, essentially a discount

to buy houses he's building. But, he didn't have to, did he? No, he didn't. He's still profiting, but profiting a little less, and he's trying to get people in. Yeah, you can't begrudge the guy for having, you know, being a developer, whatever, that's his business. This is great.

I'm not doling out food parcels. Okay, now he's kind of slept. Oh, are we praising? Did you read the full thing? I'm not doling out food parcels. My aim is to help people who are trying hard to get into their own house. Okay, first half of December wasn't great. Second half was a lot better.

$100,000, though. That's a big help. What are those? Are they like townhouses? Like, you know, like the two-story? I don't have the details, but I'm imagining they're going to be the ones that are the cheapest to build. Because if you go down in Dunedin,

$100,000 would be good. Now, if people aren't in Dunedin, could they like move there and be like, I'm here for the $100,000 handout. And then have it as a rental property. No, no, no. I don't think that's what he wants. No, you've got to live there.

You've got to live there. He's not trying to establish more landlords. I'll get my mail address there. He's not trying to make more landlords, Hayley. I don't think that's right. This is great. I'll get one. I might grab a couple.

He's also like this. If he can help me out. Another thing he's doing is establishing the Dunedin Homes Charitable Trust, inviting people to apply for improvements, like new roofs, double glazing, well, he pumps. Okay, now I'm back on board. You're back on board. With Rog.

Yeah. That's good. I think it is good. It's good on him. So how do people apply for it? Details, details, details. That's the thing, Hayley, I could deliver you a link right now. I'm just imagining being a young person living in Dunedin now,

being like, this is great, I'm hearing this on Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley who I trust. Like Rog said, I'm not doling out food parcels. You're not doling out links. I'm giving you a little bit of information. You Google and find out the rest. You've still got to want it. What happened there, Hayley, is you asked Vaughan a question he didn't know the answer to because he hasn't read the full article. Yeah, I think so.

That's a fair call. That's a fair call. Rog and I, we're both as honest as the day is long I love this He says that he just literally I've already sorted out my two kids You know like got them provided for And set up for the future

I've got lots of assets I've got all this spare money Must complete a form similar to a mortgage Application just demonstrating that they have a job Can pay a mortgage That's good because you don't want to just set them up And then leave them to struggle with a mortgage currently where you're talking like extreme makeover home edition where they add all that rateable value to a small house with people already drowning in debt and they're stuck with cardboard and they're stuck with horse

ornaments everywhere yeah and it was because the lady said she liked horses and just a rate the land tax that is just completely unserviceable. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Now, currently looking at Dunedin weather, six degrees, snow falling above 200 metres. See how good would a bit of double glazing be in the heat pump? Yeah.

So I don't, I literally, because I've actually tried to jump in here and find the information, but I can't find like a link or anything. Well, I can't. We've done enough, haven't we? I think we've done more than enough. I'm not ranking it, but if I was going to put a list together of people who have done more than enough,

we'd be up there with Roger. We're basically giving away a hundred thousands of dollars. We've given the info out. We've given you the info. 22.8. Next on the show, I'd like to share with you guys a new

beauty trend inspired by boys. Okay. Is this something Vaughn and I can do? Oh yeah, you can do it. We're men's. You're the men's though. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn

and Hayley. Makeup trends, they keep changing. You'd never just draw a black line around your eye anymore. You wouldn't do it, would you? I've never done it. When would you have done that? I think you guys would actually both look hot with a bit of guyliner. God, the guyliner used to get me.

What, like in the 2000s in the emo days? Oh, yeah, man. As a teenager, if I saw a boy with eyeliner on, and then I took a lovely Christian boy and I dyed his hair black and he used to start wearing eyeliner and I was a goner. That's when he first fell in love. Is that why his mum hated you? She hated me.

I can see why. I also got black hair dye on her white walls while I was like ruining her son's hair. Oh, you sound like a nightmare. I was ruining her son's what? You think that's the worst thing I did in your house? Anyway, makeup trends. Boy blush

is the new hot TikTok trend. Okay. And it's inspired, they're calling it boy blush. What it is. But it's for women, right? It's for the chicky babes or for those that enjoy wearing makeup to be fair. But usually with blusher, historically shall we say, you put blusher just on the apples of your cheeks where like kind of naturally you would have a bit of blush yeah where you would blush and maybe and then it sort of

changed a little bit you might take a little bit higher up the cheekbones oh yeah boy blush is inspired by they call it like the ruddy cheeks the boys. Think your Williams and your Harrys. Now, you know, like Prince Harry has always had that really red. I'm going to be at this night for it. It's called rosacea. Pale British guys always have this, eh? This red, ruddy kind of cheeks. Yeah, when they do a little bit of work,

when they do a little bit of running or something. They do the exercise and their cheeks go all red. That's the new trend. And so we're taking blushers lower and lower and lower to get this kind of. So we're looking like we're always embarrassed in blushing. We're a bit puffed or embarrassed. Weird. Yeah.

So like a couple of years ago, it was like sunburn blush. And they used to do it so you'd go over your nose as well and have this little bit of pink to look like, oh, my God, it's been in the sun a little too long. Right. But it's all just makeup. Okay. And now we're just going to have pink faces soon, apparently.

And they say, oh, it gives this kind of like image of being like vibrant and like flushed with, you know, blood coursing through your veins and looking a bit bloody post-coital or post-exercise. Weird. I don't think, I feel like everything we get taught and it just gets reversed. We just spent, so like when I first started wearing makeup, it was all dream mat mousse and it was all about, you'd get the dream mat mousse and you'd rub it in your hands

like this and you'd just go like this and then you'd add no blush, no cheeks, no contour, nothing, no bronzer. Who was leading that? And you'd want to have just a flat face. Who was leading that? Like, what was the celebrity who led that sort of charge? Harris Hilton? I don't know.

I can't even think about it. I'd say, like, early 2000s. Dream Matt Moose. Okay. Because, you know, and then we went Hevy Kardashian. We did all the contouring and stuff, and then it moved into this thing. This is ever-changing. I can't imagine.

One of my best friends has rosacea, always has. And her whole life she used to buy that green under tint. Do you even know of this stuff? No. Like colour correcting stuff. And you'd put green all over your face. And then that would hide it. And then you'd put the foundation on top.

Well, now she's in... Now she's in vogue. She's in vogue. She's bloody trendy. She's got the cheeks we all want. She doesn't even need make-up because she's in vogue. She's in vogue. She's bloody trendy. She's got the cheeks we all want. She doesn't even need makeup because she's got it there. She's got it there. And she's got freckles. And freckles are trendy. People are drawing them on.

Freckles are bad. Freckles are great. Freckles are huge. Have you seen people, they get like henna and stuff and they get it on a little brush and it flicks like that and you put fake freckles on. Yeah but that's easier said than done. It just looks like you've been flicked by a paintbrush. It actually looks like that and you put fake freckles on. Yeah, but that's easier said than done. It just looks like you've been flicked by a paintbrush.

Yeah, that's not funny. It actually looks like you've been flicked by a paintbrush. Yeah. And this will make you look like you're quite unfit. Yeah. And you know,

you're all flushed and hot. Anyway, give it a go if you want. It's called Boy Blush. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Oh God. I remember dating, eh? What a mess. What a nightmare.

There's an Aussie content creator who has shared her, like, immediate, absolutely not, deal-breaker comment that a guy can make when they're organising a date. So say they're having a little chat and they're like, shall we go out for a movie or something? And they make a comment. I just cancelled a date for the second time because for the second time,

I'll take you out to dinner and a movie turned into, well, come to mine and we can watch whatever you want on Netflix and I'll cook us 18 eggs to share. Okay, the 18 eggs to share thing is like what? Unless they're deviled eggs. Off. And then of course 18 eggs isn't a ridiculous amount of eggs. That's the perfect amount of eggs.

How can we eat so many eggs when they're deviled? We eat so many eggs just because they're deviled. Or scrambled. Or scrambled, yeah. I mean, I don't know if this guy's... perfect amount of eggs. How can we eat so many eggs when they're deviled? We eat so many eggs just because they're deviled. Or scrambled. Or scrambled, yeah. I mean, I don't know if this guy's... Or some of those evaporate. I don't know if that guy's still free, but I love 18 eggs. I'm down for that. We're talking protein and a movie? Yeah. Yes, please. Protein

and a movie. But this is, like, I feel like so many girls will be like, yes. Well, it's the code, right? It's Netflix and chill going back a few years. 100%. It's just code for, you know what's going to happen. And if you're a girlie like this who I guess has,

she said like she's cancelled a date on a second time. So she's out, she's dated. She's wanting something more meaningful. She's wanting something more meaningful. And when you say let's have dinner and a movie, dinner and a movie is fine because at the end of dinner and a movie, you can have a little kiss and go home. Although you were telling me how much your movie cost the other day.

Yeah, $33.50 for a ticket. And dinner. And if you're buying them a ticket. Yeah. Which some guys. $70 in the hole. Yeah. And we haven't even eaten or had a drink.

Nah. So I, look, you're trying to paint this as a cosy, a little bit cry like, well, come back to mine and we can watch Netflix and I'll cook you 18 eggs. But for sure this is code. I imagine people wanting something deeper, even that thing of, oh, should we just go back to mine? I think I've got a bowl of wine in the fridge.

But I guess if you don't want to go out and pay like for a movie and stuff, there are free things you can do, like walk around. Botanical gardens. Botanical gardens. Botanical gardens. You could go and look at the ocean. It's always changing.

Especially in New Zealand. It's never far away. It's always different. You can go draw a picture of each other. Oh, when is the best time for free samples at the supermarket? Oh, especially when it's the evening ones. That's a good one. You know when they have the little wok on the stand?

Yeah. That means business when they've got a wok. That means we've got sausages of some kind. We've got some hot kind of fish things. A fish thing or a sausage. We've got some amazing dumplings. Maybe some kind of Kiev. A Kiev.

A Kiev. A chicken Kiev. Yeah. Some kind of tigre toast. They'll only give you a thin slice of the chicken Kiev though. Just bring numerous hats. Do another loop. Go around. teagull taste. Not only can you get a thin slice of the chicken Kiev though, just bring numerous hats. Go around. Especially if you had the Kiev at the front by the meat,

then we make our way towards the wine aisle and sometimes they're doing a small wine tasting. It's a nice little date night. Beautiful. You could stop and flick through a magazine. A travel magazine. Where would you like to go? Have a look what's in the deli. You don't need to buy anything.

Get a little pick and mix Lolo for later. And some Connie's on your way out if it goes that way. What a great date. Did we just come up with a great date night idea? Supermarket dates. Although if it's a budget conscious thing, you can go and get your Connie's at Family Planning. Oh yeah, they're free.

Maybe a little presumptuous of you to assume it will go that way, but maybe just don't show them until later. Maybe you could both squeeze into that kid's ride that's $2. You know, there's always a little... Oh, the coin operator. That'd be cute. Or take turns if you can't both take turns. Or take turns on the lap.

I'll just watch you as you shake around in this tiny car. It's a hot day. It's a hot day. You know what? It's free or $2. Get them warmed up. Get out of that car. We'll be jiggling and wiggling.

Absolutely. A little bit of warming up there. Hey, I know you probably would have, congrats, I know you probably would have talked about it yesterday when I wasn't here. I did tune in for a while.

Did you? Yeah. Okay. I was loving it. Did you like, how did you like the show? Well, I was in a car with two of my marching gals and they heard Shannon's voice and they said, God, they replace you quickly.

I said, no, that's one of our producers. So they just shove her on when you're not there? No, no, no. Anyway, I know it was a great show, but I'm sure you talked about the opening ceremony of the Olympics. We did. The drama. There was a lot of drama.'t know. Anyway, I know it was a great show. But I'm sure you talked about the opening ceremony of the Olympics. We did. The drama. There was a lot of drama.

I know. Oh, my God, I cried watching Celine Dion sing. Why did you cry? Oh, just beautiful. I didn't see Celine. I said to Sade, oh, Celine didn't perform because she hadn't. Because they said it was going to be a gaga. And it was all to be a Gaga, Medley.

And it was all around the city, so it wasn't like in a stadium like it has been before. But then Gaga was not with Celine Dion, so it was like, oh, she kind of been up to it. But then she was. No, Celine was on a platform on the Eiffel Tower singing a beautiful French song, full vocal quality returned. Anyway, but Lady Gaga was there

and she performed a French number on the stairs and everyone was like, what a great way to start. And then, so what's happened is... But wait, is she French? Lady Gaga? No, she's Italiano. She's a New York... But not a Snoop Dogg. And he's like carrying the torch around. I know, why was he

carrying the torch? And Salma Hayek's definitely not French. Does France not have enough celebrities that we all know? Did you see the French rapper that was in the opening ceremony? Oh, no. I mean, I don't know who he was. Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour. Okay.

I mean, I'm not mad. I love that Snoop Dogg was doing it. Oh, my God. He is the icon of this Olympics, by the way. Him, like, cheering everyone on in the crowds. He's a slovener. Yeah. But Gaga was there, and she's hanging around.

Everyone lost their mind. She ordered a sandwich in French. Yeah. And they were like, yeah, the woman eats. I do apologise. Gaga has French-Canadian ancestry. Oh, okay. So she does have a French connection.

Oh, right. Yeah, yeah. Très bien. Well, the French Prime Minister, Gabrielle Attal, kind of popped the cork on one of her biggest secrets because he posted a video to TikTok that was like introducing Gaga to the prime minister and then her boyfriend.

And in the video, it kind of was slipped that Lady Gaga introduced her boyfriend as her fiance. And she hasn't officially made that announcement. And I'm sure she was just like, I'll just tell you, but it hasn't been announced. Yeah. Between us. But then it got posted to the TikTok

and everyone was like, wait, wait, fiance? And so now everybody knows they're engaged. Yeah. So this is the softest launch. Bit of a,

I'm sure Lady Gaga would have loved to have done a big, you know, magazine cover. Celebrity. Or a woman's day. I don't think she'd do a woman's day.

Or tell TMZ at an airport while she's getting her bags. She would have loved to have done something like that. But the French Prime Minister spilled the secret before Lady Gaga was able to. Oh, God. I know. And this is what I thought

we should get some calls and messages in for is when this has happened to you. If someone has spilled the beans. You know it's traditional, men will ask their fiancé's father for their hand in marriage and then the dads ruin it. Oh, you know.

Because they can't keep a secret. Oh, I know, dads can't. Oh, we're getting pizza, you probably want one of these. What? The wedding... Oh no, I've done something, haven't you? With the wet... What? The wet ink... Oh, no, I've done something, haven't I?

Darling, Cheryl, I've done it! I've spilled the beans. Yeah, they're terrible. Or like spilling the, you know, the gender of a baby before a gender reveal. I tried. I had a friend who knew the gender of all three of his kids and his wife didn't until they were born.

I was like, I could not. And he likes her whiskey. Yeah, how they were born. I was like, I could not. And he likes her whiskey. How do you not just accidentally say like, I would do it. I'd be like, so it'd be exciting for you with your son or something. Yeah, and then you talk about

names and if you knew the gender, you probably wouldn't put as much effort into coming up with names for the other gender. Yeah. I know. He didn't trip, but so many people would have. Okay, well, this is what we want to know. 0800 DARS at M.

Call now. Text through 9696. Who revealed your big secret or your big news before you got the chance to? Shout out to Dad, Zach. Oh, yeah. Already people texting him. You know what? Mums are bad enough, though.

Mums. Oh, mums love a goss. Mums love a goss. I shouldn't tell you this, Denise. Hayley said not to, but... It'll come out later that mum's been telling everybody, but dad's just blunder it and tell everybody in front of the person. The bloody French Prime Minister spilled the beans accidentally,

but on Lady Gaga's best secret. There's that she's getting married. Her boyfriend's now a fiancé. Has she been married before? I think she's maybe been engaged before, but I don't think she should be married. Oh, my God, imagine the dress. Yeah, it'll be something.

It'll be something. It'll be meat. It'll be meat. I thought you said it'll be neat. I was like, yeah, it probably be something. It'll be meat. It'll be meat. It'll be meat. I thought you said it'll be neat. I was like, yeah, it probably will be quite neat. Maybe, though, because it's a wedding dress, you go for something more delicate. It'll be ham.

Rather than last time it was a cider. Like champagne ham. Champagne-shaved ham. Yeah. You're beautiful. Or luncheon with peas and carrots in it. Nice decorative look like Jules. Yeah.

Yeah, you're gorgeous. She's previously been engaged to actor Taylor Kinney and talent agents Christian Canero. So this is her third engagement. You know by the third one everyone's like Yes, we'll do it quietly. Just do it quietly.

It'll be another one. So we want to know this morning who ruined the big surprise for you, your special news. Yeah. And no shortage of people texting and calling in. No, not at all. Let's start with Emma.

Emma, this was a housemate that spilled the beans. Yeah, so my housemate was one of the first ones to know that I was pregnant. And we did ask her, just keep it between us, don't tell anybody. And she told our friend group. Oh, for God's sake.

Told the whole friend group? Yeah. Yeah, there's no such thing as a secret when more than one person knows. How did you find out that everyone knew? So we told some people, and then one of them was like, oh, actually, I'm really sorry to tell you this, but we already knew. They couldn't even pretend. I would have just pretended.

He just pretended. It was a while after. Right. Oh, gosh. See, if I was spilling that kind of goss, I'd say, hey, Vaughn, don't tell anyone. And if they tell you, act surprised. Oh, my God.

Yeah. I've heard the sentence from you a thousand times. Of course you have. And you know that Vaughn and I can put together one hell of a performance. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's perfectly timed. Oh my God, really? Call me intrigued.

Really? I always, when I'm lying, I always pronounce the what as a what. You put an H before the W. What? What? Vaughn really goes, it's too much. My Lord, this news is shocking to me. Emma, thank you.

Steph, who spilled the beans on your big secret? Well, my husband and I were in hospital, and I was giving birth to our first son. Yeah. And we'd text the family once he kind of came out and said, you know, we've got a little boy. And my brother-in-law's girlfriend at the time put a post up on Facebook saying congratulations.

And I was still, he hadn't even up on Facebook saying congratulations and I was still, he hadn't even delivered the placenta yet, but I was still going through the birthing process. Oh my God. And she's, I can't believe she announced the baby without knowing the gender of the placenta. Well, I know. Oh my God, that's fresh.

I mean, yeah, that's a thing that you, you know, you've got to do, the big post. Oh, you wait. Well, yeah. You wait. As the parents, you'd like to be able to say congratulations, but also get through the process before it's all over.

She's literally still tethered. Chord's still in. I also heard you say girlfriend at the time. Yeah, well and truly ex-girlfriend, and very quickly after that process became the ex-girlfriend. Yeah. Well, she obviously jumped the gun, didn't she, on the posting.

Yeah, she's a bit. Yeah. She's a gun driver. She's obviously a bit much. She sounds a bit much. Bit much recognises bit much. Yep. 100%.

Steph, thank you. Tiana, who ruined your surprise? Oh, our sonographer. I think it's a very baby-based surprise ruiner today. No, totally, but it's one of the big secrets, right, that you get to keep in your life. The sonographer is the person that's doing the, puts the gel on and the, yep, okay.

Yeah, so at our 20-week scan, we explicitly said, hey, we don't know because we're doing a big, you know, dinner tonight with our family, so please can you write it down on a piece of paper so that we can also find out at the same time as our family? Yeah, nice. And was she like, how do you spell boy? It was actually a male.

Oh, yeah, okay. A male sonographer. Classic. And as he scanned her heart, he was like, oh, yeah, she has a really strong heart. And both my husband and I spied him. You dumbed up! And he was like, no, no, don't a really strong heart. And both my husband and I spied him. You ducked up! I spied him.

And he was like, no, no, don't worry. I refer to all babies as girls. He, she, her, you know, don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Gender-resistant societal construct. Yeah, right. Turns out we were totally having a girl. Oh, no.

I mean, it's easy, right? It's easy to happen like that. It's such a slip-up. Totally. It's such a hard secret to keep. I always wonder how sonographers avoid the willy when they're doing those scans. Oh, we have to close eyes at that point. Yeah, right.

Yeah, or look away. They're like, look away, look away. I'm going to do, you know, go down to their privates. Yeah, right. But yeah, it was apparently, yeah, very obvious she was a girl and he couldn't keep it in. Oh, that sucks. I mean, you got a girl, that's fine. Tiana, thank you.

Some messages in. My six-year-old son told my parents that I was getting divorced before I had a chance to say I'd asked my partner of the time to leave. Another sonographer one. Mummy's leaving daddy. We got to the last scan at 39 weeks of the pregnancy and the sonographer said he looks fine and ready to join us. Oh, no.

And we had a no on the gender. Came out to my mum at 16. Oh, yeah. And I asked her to keep it on the down low until I was ready. Not long after, I got sent a rainbow scarf from my grandmother that she'd knitted. Oh, my God. Okay, that is the... That's the... That's the support story that you want, right? Yeah. That makes me want to cry. That's the most beautiful thing. scarf from my grandmother that she'd knitted. Oh my God.

That's the story that you want, right? That makes me want to cry. That's the most beautiful thing. And mum had to admit she'd told the family overseas. Nanny's like, knit him a nice gay scarf. My mum told my sister that she was going to be my bridesmaid even before I got to

tell my sister. Oh. Mama. I got pregnant tell my sister. Mama. I got pregnant at 17, told my best friend. I said, please don't tell anybody. Turned up to school the next day and wondered why people were looking at me funny. Oh no, that's a betrayal. At 17 as well, you're

working through some things there. Oh my gosh. My mother-in-law told everyone I'd had a miscarriage when I explicitly told her not to tell anyone as we wanted to tell the rest of the family in our own time. Jeez. Yeah, but also it's not your news. It's not the news. It's not the news for a Facebook post, is it?

If I might play devil's avocado for a moment, she might have been, rather than mum, the mother-in-law might have been trying to protect, because I'd imagine if you had a miscarriage and then everyone's like, how's the pregnancy going? And how's the baby? And I'm so excited. And sending you like, it's the pregnancy going? And how's the baby? And I'm so excited. And sending you like,

it's the size of an avocado now. Like that could be quite hard, right? So maybe she was trying her best to help. My mother-in-law was telling a nail technician the plans for the night and that that evening her son was going to get engaged. I'm the, I'm the fiance. I was sitting right next to her.

So she's at at she'd like the mum hasn't seen her at the nail place and is like my son's gonna propose to his girlfriend the girlfriend's at the nail place right there

I was sitting right next to her did she at any stage say hi I don't know oh my god that's funny and she's just been like oh there's so and so's mum

oh she's you know chatting I won't interrupt my son's gonna propose to his girlfriend oh that's terrible my sister-in-law announced mum. Oh, she's, you know, chatting. I won't interrupt. My son's going to propose to his girlfriend. Oh, that's terrible. My sister-in-law announced my pregnancy on Facebook before I'd even told my family. Then my now ex-husband told all of our clients

from our business he was divorcing me before he told me. Oh, my gosh. Seems to run in the family. Yeah, well. Wow. Can't keep it secret. Oh, my boyfriend told me what happens at the end of House of Dragons season two

accidentally yesterday. Has that finished? No, stop, season two accidentally yesterday. Has that finished? No, stop. Has that finished? I've paused to binge. Yeah, I've paused to binge. I've paused to binge. I've watched.

I'm binging the whole second season. Wait, so we can go ahead. I'm blocking my ears. I don't know. Touch engage. Are we going to go? Season two is out today. Yeah, okay.

It would have been yesterday. Today. No, it's Monday. Episodes are Monday, aren't they? Because that's Sunday night. Yeah. HBO. Okay Sunday night with HBO. Okay. HBO.

HBO. I'm lying. See how I pronounced the H real hard? Is season two better than season one? Yes. Because that was a bit bloody silly. I've heard it's great. Okay, good.

Yeah. I was told at the weekend that season two is better than season one. Good. I think we clarified that. What else have we got in here? I think you're done. There's a ton of babies. Yeah, it's a lot of baby stuff.

Ton of babies. A lot of baby stuff. Clay, Zed, Emz, Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day does the name Olympics come from? Greece. Greece, correct. Any further? O-lim.

Any further guesses? Oli. Doing sick Oliis on the skateboard. Yeah, perfect. And they were the best picks. Back in Greece. They were the best picks. Yeah.

Olim picks. In ancient Greece. Oli picks. It is in reference to Mount Olympus. Oh, yeah. Of course it is. Of course it is. It's a mountain in Thessaly.

So I've looked up that. That's got a... I've pulled a map up. It's not that you're saying Thessaly. Is that the one in Athens? No. No, no, no, no, no. Not with the Pantheon up the top.

No, that's the Acropolis. No, this is in like northern Greece on the border of Macedonia. In Greece. Okay. You need to travel more. What the Pantheon?

Where do you need to travel? The Pantheon's in Athens. No, that's the Acropolis. No, the Pantheon is one of the buildings on the top of the mountain. Isn't it in Rome? It's in Rome. The Pantheon is one of the buildings on the top of the mountain. Isn't it in Rome? It's in Rome.

The Pantheon. Yeah. Yeah. Historical landmark in Rome. I've been there. Sweaty, sweaty, I've been there. And I've never been to Greece. I've been there.

I was literally there three weeks ago. What was the one with the Basilica of Santa Maria? The Acropolis. The Acropolis. Beside the Acropolis. You've been to the Acropolis. I've never been there beside the Acropolis. I don't know.

I thought it was the Pantheon. Greece. Can we get a map of the... You know what happened? He spent way too much time on Roman orgies in history. I know. We primarily studied Greek orgies. That's why I thought...

Right. A temple of all gods. The word Pantheon derives from the Greek Pantheon, literally a temple of all gods. There is a Pantheon at the top of that thing, but it's just what they call a... It's not what the world would know as the pantheon, as in the one in Rome.

Apologise to everybody. I won't. I'm sorry, I meant our pantheon, not the pantheon. You know, one of the many. One of... Pantheons. I just meant our warehouse, not the warehouse. I meant an industrial warehouse.

I don't know why you're putting me in this red polo. I simply said our warehouse. No, not where everyone gets a bargain. That's not what I said. I said there are bargains to be had everywhere. So the Mount Olympus is in like northern Greece by Macedonia. Do you mean the Parthenon? People are texting him being like there's a Parthenon in Greece Oh was he just on a path?

He was eh? Someone else said mum what's an orgy? It's like a lot of oranges It's where you have a lot of oranges Everyone brings an orange You have an orange You juice them Orange parties, baby.

Parthenon. Parthenon is in Greece. No, the Parthenon is in Rome. Oh, my God. This is painful. The Parthenon is in Greece. The Pantheon there. Everyone knows.

It's in Rome. Someone Google see. So Mount Olympus is so massive and high. It's the highest mountain peak in Greece. Yep. They believe that was the home of the gods. Yep. They believe there was a mountain so high it was the closest to the heavens,

such a triumphant spot to watch humans. The Zeus and et cetera, they all live up on Mount Olympus. So the Olympics were kind of like two things. To honour the gods, they would be like, look at how great we have become, your creations of humans are faster than ever and can jump higher than before. Look at our break dancing.

Yeah, look at our sick flips. Observe our horses doing a trot. Watch a woman with what looks like a crazy rifle hold perfectly still and take one breath in and then on a slow exhale pull the trigger and nail the bullseye. That's right.

I was watching a bit of the shooting. Watch us, gods. So good. Watch us climb this wall vertically in six seconds. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Watch our bottoms

as we play beach volleyball. Oh, Vaughn. I'm watching the ball. Me too. Go over the net. Me too. From the Pantheon in Greece. So they did it and also

the thought was that if you were like on par, the gods might be like, you can come up here. Well, you could ascend. You could ascend to live on Mount Olympus. So it was the Olympics, Mount Olympus, but then Olympiad, because you know they say

it's the 75th Olympiad Olympiad is a period of four years yeah because they do it every four years right from the get go

I thought it was like a budget thing no no no man that was expensive we should just wait four years because you'd already be building in the

next city you know yeah well you need some down time but like all these music festivals that are like we just need a couple

of years break you guys were exhausted. They're not coming back. We're not coming back. They're not coming back. They're not coming back. If they've gone for that long. It's not the Olympics, mate.

They're not coming back in four years. They're just not going to happen again. No, God, they're not. Yeah, so today's Olympic fact of the day is the Olympics are named for Mount Olympus, which is believed to be the home of the gods in Greece. The pantheon is in Rome. Well, our pantheon is in Greece also. A parthe Greece. The pantheon as in Rome. Well, our pantheon as in Greece also. A partheon.

A pantheon. A temple of all gods. You say pathantheon and I say partheon. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. This is a big day for me I'm coming out So to speak I didn't pick you as coming out first But please carry on I'm coming out, so to speak. I didn't pick you as coming out first, but please carry on.

I'm, you know, I soft launched that I reckon a while ago. God, Hannah Wilkinson's looking good in Paris at the moment. Anyway, I would like to self-identify as officially a snorer. That's embarrassing. That sucks. officially a snorer. That's so embarrassing. I have always been a quiet sleeper and I was the kid who, when I used to share a room with my brother, would like, wake him up

if he breathed like, you know that loud breathing? I'd be like, you're loud breathing! And I've slept in many a spare bed with people snoring next to me and I was just always like, oh my god, snoring. Have some self-respect. Have some pride. Do you know what I mean? Grow up. Grow up.

What are you? Now, Aaron had mentioned maybe earlier in the year that I'd become a bit of a snorer. I mean, put a lot of it down to, one, a bit of weight gain, a little bit. And two, working really hard, like doing all the comedy fest and late nights

and being really tired, exhaustion. Yeah. And that's all sort of settled down and it's continued. And I was just like, we'll just sort of ignore that that's happening. But over the weekend, I was down in Wellington for a Lockheel reunion. Marching conference.

The marching conference. Yeah. And I shared a room with my two friends. Yeah. So it was three of us in this twin hotel room. One big bed. Not one big bed. You pushed the beds together.

Did you make one big bed? No, no, no. We just had two queen-size beds. Well, who got this queen bed to themselves? My friend Rachel. No, you pushed them together and you have one big bed. And you won't make one big bed. No, I know, but we didn't do that.

Because it was stuff in the middle. It was a very small room in the end. It was very crammed, actually. So me and my friend Erin, she had a bed. And after the first night, in which we didn't have that many drinks, you know, that was the problem, they both were like, man, you're having a good old snore. And I was like, oh, yeah, I think just being up on Friday,

I was exhausted. I think I'm just tired. Using that old excuse of I'm not normally a snore. I was like, oh yeah, I think just, you know, being up on Friday, I was exhausted. I think I'm just tired. Using that old excuse of I'm not normally a snorer. And these are two of the quietest sleepers I've ever slept next to. Like often like, you all right? Are you alive? Are you alive? Yeah.

And then the next night we did have a few drinks. Same thing. Far out. Sprout. You're roaring. It's like not bad. It's like not even like cute. Did they do a recording?

I don't think they did. Because I feel like if my friend was like, I'm not that bad, I'd be like, easy evidence. Listen to this. Listen to this. I know. So it's like official. How does the snorer not get woken up by the snoring?

Well, I did wake myself up on the plane last week, remember? Our friend Mike's a big snorer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It matter where air's a big snorer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And Matt'll wear earplugs. Oh, God. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, one of my friends wears, Rachel was wearing earplugs, but she was in the spare bed. Where were you on your back? Weren't they giving you a rollover? I don't know. They weren't like, oh, my God. They were just like, no, it was all right. Rachel had a headphones in.

It wasn't. It wasn't. They were just trying to be polite. Because they knew it was only for two nights. Oh, no. You know, next time there's like a marching reunion. Oh, let's get our own rooms. Let's get our own rooms. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, guys, we'll save money. We can just share a bed. Nah. Not this time. It's just. Nah, guys, come on. We'll just get twin beds or something. It's good to have your own space.

I don't know what to do. Other than like work on my fitness and, you know, get all that going again. Don't sleep on your back. I don't. I don't think I do. You miss the wrong on your side? I don't know. You might need adenoids. Because I was trying. Whatever those things are called when people go in for you know when they go in they're like I've got a something and

they're just getting a nose job but they're like it's Can I get a free nose job out of this? You know when people go in and they get a nose job but they say oh no it was because of my deviated septum. It was my septum I'm getting my septum and bullshit it's come out a different shape. Because I don't mind my nose, but it's also not cracked. I got a little something. But that would be up top.

My problem's down the bottom with the little flicky bit. But I could get a little. Biggie bird, do you know anything? Yeah, they just work faster on it. I think it's the weight of the bigger boobs bearing down on me. Maybe I could get a lift. I don't know. Now you're trying to justify.

This is the excuses. Please. Yeah. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughn and Ailey. Kamala Harris. Sorry, I've said that wrong again. Kamala.

Kamala. Kamala Harris. Think Kama, Kama, Kama, Kama, Kama, Kamala Harris. What? Do you know I've been watching a lot of this coverage since Kamala Harris took over as a presumptive nominee. And do you know, in America, they're all saying she could be the first woman

president. Yeah, they don't say female president. They don't say female. Is this one of those, like, how we have words and we use S's and they use Z's? It's like an Americanism. Like an American, because I thought when I first heard it, I was like, oh, you said that wrong. Nah, I haven't. I've just been like yelling at the YouTube. That's great. Yeah, because I thought when I first heard it, I was like, oh, you said that wrong. No, I haven't.

I've just been like yelling at the YouTube. That's great. Yeah, I love it when an old man just yells at the TV. It's female, isn't it? Yeah. But they're all the news presenters. But do they say like woman writer or woman comedian? Yeah, they're just like, she could be the first woman president.

I'm like, no, the first female president. Yeah. Doesn't sound right. But maybe it's an American thing. I don't know. That was a sidebar, Your Honour. Is it woman president or female president? Now, that was asked seven years ago on Reddit's grammar subreddit. There's no simple answer to this,

but The Economist ran a great think piece on this very topic about a year ago, and I'd suggest checking that out. Okay. A really interesting phenomenon of language for over a hundred years now. The woman as adjective has been at least as popular as using female and way more popular than man is

compared to male. Huh. Apparently either way is the first man president. You wouldn't say that, would you? First man president. You'd say the first of 48 man presidents. It's wild. But anyway, so obviously Kamala Harris now is in the spotlight,

and that's thrust the spotlight on her private life, her family. She has two stepchildren with Doug. One of them described as a knitting-obsessed topless model. She's so cool. Yeah. Hairy armpits, crochets, bikinis, shaggy hair. She's been around, she's not like, she was at the inauguration of Joe Biden where

Yes. Kamala. Yes. Thank you. Was our vice president. She was there, but of course that was four years ago. So she's changed and she's got way more into her knitting and way more into being topless, I assume. Because that seems to be what it's... So if your mum, Christine, was thrust into the spotlight and all of a sudden, Christine could be the first woman president of America,

Christine Smith, how would they describe her son, Vaughn? Oh. Hairy. Yeah, maybe something probably about the beard if it was going to be on appearance. Bearded, funny. Button-nosed.

Oh, cute. Yeah, cute. Cute, button-nosed. Well, I was thinking I'd be described as cute. Like just cute. Nah, you'd be described as Cute see Navy hat wearing Gym obsessed Gym obsessed

Son of the Fit freak Woman president Yeah Yeah Mine would be Oh god Get to know her

And she'll settle down A bit much at first Yeah yeah She's a lot She's loud But keeps us on our toes Yeah Daughter of
