Happy inspection day today. Thanks. Apparently no one passes on the first go and yet somehow we think we will. You'll pass. Come on. It'll be a good Christmas present. That wouldn't be enough for you though because if you get it,

like there's too much time to pass during our Christmas and then on Christmas you'll be like, where's my presents? Where's my presents? Where's my presents? No, I'm doing no Christmas presents this year. From the whole family?

From or to anyone. Do your family know about this or are they all going to turn up with gifts? Aaron's family, you buy for one person. But other than that, everyone else can get stuffed. Including me, I don't want anything. What could I possibly want? New drink bottle.

I left mine at a hotel and don't know where it is. Oh, hon. Your nice drink bottle. Yeah, my nice one. From Kadrona, I know. So I'm rocking a plastic fantastic. Do you know I lost a shoe? What? Speaking about losing nice drink bottle. You're my nice one. From Kadrona, I know. So I'm rocking a plastic fantastic. Do you know I lost a shoe? What?

Speaking about losing a drink bottle, I have misplaced one gym shoe. What do you like? I went to the gym yesterday, no shoes, and I was like, I'll have to do that obnoxious thing where I walk around in socks and sandals and lift weights. Cute. But they were like, oh, you can't be in here without shoes on. Yeah, no, you can't. I was like, can I roll around on the mats? Do some stretches that you can't be in here without shoes on. Yeah, no, you can't. I was like, can I roll around on the mats?

Do some stretches. Like, you can't be in here at all without shoes on. It's the health and safety thing. So how's old bloody Jock Mick snatch and grab allowed to do it? Because he wears his shoes around the gym, then gets there. I'm seeing dudes in sandals and they just kind of scuffs and they kick them off. Yeah, I see a lot of people working out in like Crocs and stuff. Yeah.

Yeah, Crocs and socks. Well, I feel like I was picked on and I was told I. Yeah, people, I see a lot of people working out on like Crocs and stuff. Yeah. Yeah, Crocs and socks. Wow, that was, I feel like I was picked on and I was told I had to leave. Where's the shoe? I have got no idea. It's in your car. Nah, I searched the car high and low. Yeah, I remember being at primary school and coming home with a shoe missing. Oh yeah, all the time your mum's like, where's your shoe?

I don't know. It was just still out of my bag, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. I played both roles in that scenario yesterday. I was like, where have I put my shoe? God, I'm an idiot. You're losing. How do you lose one shoe?

And just walk around the house muttering to myself like a madman. So now I've got to buy new shoes. Or not go to the gym ever again. And I tell you, which option is certainly looking like a pre-Christmas favourite? Silly little poll that's coming up. It's about injections today. When you get an injection, do you want a 3-2-1? Because I got a 3-2-1 yesterday and I was like,

No, don't do that. What? Don't do that. 3-2, because you're like, oh, no, no, no. No, I like them when they just chat to you and then they're like, And it just goes in. I know, with the poll results. Little pinch. Poll results coming up soon on the show.

But next. There is a new tanning trend that Vaughn wants to tell us about. I gave my daughters a sermon on this last night. Because I've noticed this sneaking into our house. Well, you might have to tell Shannon off next too. Okay, everyone's going to get a bloody rock up. As well as me, because I'd have lost that shoe. Play ZM's Fleshborn and Hayley.

I would be honest with you and say this summery, springy season, I've heard my daughters talk about UV a lot. Right. Indy's got it on her phone. The UV index. She's like, UV, it's going to be up to like nine this afternoon. And I'm like, okay. Weird.

And she'll say it and I'll be like, okay. Because to me that means you don't go outside. It's very hot. You stay in the shade. You're lathered in sunscreen. You've got your slip, slop, slap, rap. You've got to slip, slop, slap, and rap. Yeah.

But I thought they might have learned about it at school, and it's not. It's this bloody TikTok. Oh, God, I know. And apparently, there's these online super brown, mega tanned TikTok teens who are like, guys, don't even bother going outside to tan unless it's eight or up. No. They don't live in New Zealand.

They don't live in New Zealand? Well, it started getting here, but most of them are Americans or Australians. I mean, Australia's just as bad as here. Totally just as bad. Oh, yeah. I've been, yeah, you go some places like, you know, America or Northern Hemisphere and, yeah, it takes a lot of time in the sun.

Oh, yeah. Any time in the sun. Yeah. Is bad. Yeah, there was an article the other day, I think it was a doctor rather than a dermatologist, who was like, there is no such thing as a healthy tan. You know when people are like, oh, you've got to get a nice, healthy glow.

That's not a thing. It's not genuine. Like any amount of sun is bad for you. I remember that when I was in Oman. Like, you know, Middle Eastern countries, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot. And we had this pool where I was staying. And I remember slapping on sunscreen.

And my other friends that were there that were Pakeha were like, you don't need to. Like, the sun will not penetrate the smog. And it didn't. I was in New Zealand the other day. I was out for 10 minutes with a hole in my T-shirt, and I got a burnt hole. That's in this article.

It says that smog in other countries stops pollution. Protects them. Yeah, stops the sun getting through. It's getting in your lungs. Well, yeah, I mean, there's a trade-off in that. Producer Shannon has beens them. Yeah. Stops the sun getting through. Skin in your lungs. Well. Yeah. I mean, there's a trade off in that. Producer Shannon has been doing this. Shannon.

Literally for years. You're a fair angel. Shannon, you are far too blonde for this. Wait, you were before the trend. Well, before the trend. I will message Carwen daily in summer being like, nine. No. Both of you have really fair skin.

Carwen doesn't do this. I will say, I'm not doing this. No. Carwen's got that, they call it the classic English rose skin, which is, that's good. No, so I'm real naughty. I know this isn't good. Like, you don't need to tell me off.

But what I do is I know the burn times. So when it's a nine, which is my personal favourite, the burn time is 15 to 25 minutes. So I'll do a 20. I'll check if it's a nine. And then would do a 20. I'll check him at the 9. And then would you put on sunscreen? No, then I go inside. I do 20 on each side, 40 minutes and out.

On each side, that's enough though. And I do that every day, yeah. Every day, yeah. And you don't go out until it is whatever number you've worked out. Yeah, it's normally about 12.30 or 1pm, we hit our peak. Which is the peak. Oh, Shannon. I definitely get brown in the summer and I always am like, oh yeah, I like it.

But I'm trying to get my head out of that. My mum was a baby oil generation. My mum was a baby oil girl too. And then she got skin cancer. I don't know how my mum hasn't had a melanoma. Not only that, Shannon, when you get a little bit older, you notice your friends that did exactly what you're doing

and that had no respect for their skin compared. I don't even wear sunblock. It's naughty. I need to figure this out. Every day. You have to do it every day. No, I haven't worn it in years. No, Shannon.

Okay. Shannon. You've got to wear sunblock every day. No, I know. I haven't worn it in years. No, Shannon! Okay. Shannon! You've got to wear sunblock every day. If it's not for health reasons, do it for the ageing skin. I'm like, I've been burnt so many times over the years, especially on my chest. See, there's a weird ranking. I always put cancer above. But this is what I'm saying.

You should, but people don't. Cancer's kind of the top dog for me. But people don't. So if you then say, like, fine, if you're going, no, I won't get skin cancer, then you'll get a crepey chest and you'll get a little rinky leather bag skin face. I was talking to someone recently that had melanoma on her leg, and she was like, oh, so I've had to lay off the sunbeds, and I was just like, no.

I know. She's like, my skin is actually so much nicer. It's so much softer And stuff I'm like yeah Because you're not Microwaving it every day Oh my god

Wild They ban them in Australia Haven't they Some states in Australia They've banned sunbends Yeah But they have it here It's so worrying

Like My daughter's And I was like This is why I have it in there So I did the old Pull up pictures of people Who have got skin cancer And the scars and stuff When they've had it all pulled out I was like want that is why I have it in there. So I did the old pull-up pictures of people who have got skin cancer and the scars and stuff when they've had it all pulled out.

I was like, want that, want that, want that, want that. Fake tan is so good these days. You don't need it. Well, also fake tan. Oh, my gosh. Also just fake tan. At this insane juxtaposition of how intense this generation is with skincare regimes.

You've got like 10 year olds doing 10 step pre-bed skincare. But that's why, especially your daughters, if they're doing their little skincare routine, they also then need to be using sunblock every day because some of those products that they use burn your skin.

But they make you more susceptible to retinols and stuff. And if you get laser hair removal, like you shouldn't be in the sun. I'm just looking forward to getting on Wolfram. Oh, yeah, Wolfram. Wolfram. No. Get that blood nice and thin.

The blood thinner. Blood thinner. You're literally not allowed in the sun. You brush against the doorway and your arm's like. That's at the other end of the age spectrum. Okay, so there was an update recently on the iPhones that made your photos album look different to how it's usually been.

And people aren't happy about this. We hate change. Remember when Facebook changed and we were all like, what? Turn it back. And now we don't even use it and we don't care. Remember black Instagram? Yes.

And some of us got black Instagram. We were all like, oh my gosh. I never got black Instagram. You mean the dark mode? Yeah, but it didn't give you a choice. Oh, yeah. Remember, it just turned it that way. Yeah.

Well, on the iOS 18.1.1 update, I hate how they number these things. Give them spicy names like the MacBooks. Sierra. Petunia. Petunia. Petunia. It changed the way your phone photos app works so that half of it is your regular photos,

your recent photos. Like a grid of photos. Grid of photos. And half of it is like memories, curated trips, which they used to do but in a much smaller way. Yeah. And then so your whole, I've been like looking for things,

being like where's my favourite albums? And it's just recent days, people and pets, pinned collection, memories, trips, features. You're like, leave me alone. That one was called Thanksgiving and it's just you taking a selfie in the mirror. Thanksgiving, yeah. I live in New Zealand, bro.

Like, read the location. That is just me. Look, there's me in a hotel room. Don't, take that phone away now. So apparently people have been complaining about this, as we do every time they make any small change. Yeah. Instagram changed its logo.

I can't handle it anymore. So you can change it back, kind of. You can make it look more similar. So if you've got your phone, you're on your Photos app. Yeah. You open it. Okay. And you do pull down on your photo library.

Yeah. Is that weird? No. Neither. Pull down. However, scroll down on the, oh my God. It's not even working. You've got to do a pull down.

The new Photos app means that the app opens to a page which is half filled with regular, if you scroll down on the page, the collection section disappears to reveal more of your photo library, making it look more like the old version of the app. So then you can sort it. Right.

This is so bad that I'm trying to tell you how to do it, but the way it's telling me how to do it doesn't work. But you've got to organise it so that it filters by sort by date captured, and then it just makes all these go away. Right. But the pull down thing's not working. Or just like live with it.

Or you just scroll down. Just get used to it. You just scroll down. See, here's the stuff, mum. See, mum? Yeah. And then you just go like that. And then there's this little up down arrow in the bottom left hand corner.

Okay, good. There you go. Does dad need me to show him how to do this while I'm on the phone? Yeah, so you hit the up down one. That's right. And then you go sort by recently added or sort by date how to do this while I'm on the phone? Yeah, so you hit the up-down one, that's right, and then you go sort by recently added or sort by date captured. It's getting to the season, isn't it, where everyone's going home and they're going to have to help dad or mum or both with a tech issue.

Oh, my God. It's gotten so bad with my parents. My phone's not receiving or sending text messages or calls. I reckon it is, mum. I reckon you've just done something. Have you got it on sleep mode? Well, how would I know that? Okay, so just go and do not disturb or something. Yeah, put your finger

on the right and swipe down. I'm trying but it's just... This is working. Now it's just opened Google Maps. Don't talk to me like I'm stupid. I'm trying my best. Don't talk to me like that. Your tone I'm trying my best. Don't talk to me like that. Your tone's changing. You've got to remember who raised you.

I brought you into this world. I taught you the ABCs. The least you can do is teach me how to make my phone ring again. You'll be upset when you can't call me because I'm dead. Yeah, then what? Then you'll wish that you had to help me to get my phone. Don't worry about it. I'll just get a new one. That's my mum's one.

I'll just have to get a new one. Your phone's fine. No, it's absolutely stuffed. I'll I just get a new one. That's my mum's one. I'll just have to get a new one. Your phone's fine. No, it's absolutely stuffed. I have to get a new one. Play. ZM. Fletchvorn and Hayley. Fletchvorn and Hayley.

Silly little pole. Silly little pole. It is so silly, silly, silly. That 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.

I'm just getting my Spotify wrapped up before everybody else does. It's a good thing about waking up early. Get it out there before it hits that obnoxious level. Today's silly little pole. This happened to me yesterday doing the usual blood test. I was there, had the thing on. Were you getting checked for chicken flu? I was getting bird flu. Because your grandad was a chicken, is that right? Your grandad was a bird? He was a chicken.

Yeah. And so I need to make sure I don't have avian bird flu. You didn't get much of the chicken. No, otherwise if I do, they have to just, I guess I thought he was full man. No, no, he's full chicken. I had no idea.

Didn't your dad's side, because he came from England, didn't he? You got mad cow disease. Yes, I've got mad cow. Because your granddad on that side was a bull. And bird flu. Far out. Yeah, so that's why I've got to get tested. Maybe the bull cancered out the chicken.

Yeah, mate, and it was the recessive gene. Imagine if I'm going to Ancestry.com and it was like 10% dog. You'd be like, what? I'm a dog? Well, that would be the best. It would be. So just before the lady that did it, this has never, ever happened before. She goes, three, two, one.

No, no, no, no. And then I was waiting and then she did it on like a minus one. Three, two, one, and then now I'll go into the skin now. And I was like, oh, it was weird. It's never happened before. And I didn't like it because normally I like

to sit there and I'm just like, okay, it's going to happen relax and then it just goes in and I'm happy. And they're just chatting along or they might go like okay chat chat chat

okay slight scratch and did a little chat chat chat and you're like if you've just joined us and you've heard Fletch say I like them to just chat then stick it in

we are talking about injections. Good morning to our Good morning to our tune in halfway through conversation listeners. You know who does it the best? It's the lady here who does the flu jabs every year. So good.

Linda? Just puts it in. Just straight in. Yeah, I love it. When you get Botox, which is like a lot of mini injections, they go, small scratch,

small scratch, small scratch, small scratch, the whole way through. Wow, they put in a lot, don't they? Is that how they do it? Yeah, look. That's me trying to frown.

Yeah. No jokes. Look. It's worn off. I caught a reflection of myself in like a car mirror the other day unexpectedly, and I was like, those are getting deeper. Looks like pages of a book. Yeah, I know.

You can almost hear my, listen. Turn the music down. That's me playing my forehead wrinkles. Like the rack. How people used to play the rack. Yeah, I know. You can almost hear my, listen. Turn the music down. That's me playing my forehead wrinkles. Like the rack. How people used to play the rack. Like a washboard. Jesus. You play the jug.

I'm almost my own hillbilly band. Yeah, you are. Anyhow, do you like a little one, two, three, here we go? 76% of people said no. No, yeah. Just no three, two, one countdown here we go. 76% of people said no. No, yeah, just... No three, two, one countdown required. Just stick it in. And 24%

of people liked the countdown. Don't care, said Tash. Well, thanks. Why reply then? You know? If you don't care, it sounds to me like you do care. You took time enough to reply. You've wasted everybody's time here. Yeah, including ours and now the listeners.

Yeah. Don't care, says Tash. Oddly, I actually love injections and most medical procedures. Oh, yuck. Oh, okay. I hate injections. That was interesting. I like a dental numbing for about the first like 20 minutes because it's funny and then

when it won't wear off. I hate it when it doesn't wear off. And you're just like, I'm ready to have a drink. You keep biting it. Yeah. And you just want to, I made it to the drink. You keep biting it. Yeah. And you just want to drink and you're dribbling. 100% no. The best is when they just talk to you,

says Alex. Ask you what you were doing in the weekend, distract you, and then say all done. Yeah, the distraction. There's a real art to it. Tegan said, I'm pretty sure you feel a small prick

is their form. All right, I'm pretty sure that the you're about to feel a small prick is their form of 3-2'm pretty sure that the you're about to feel a small prick is their form of 3210. Yeah, or a little scratch. Little scratch. Little scratch.

Small prick. Here we go. Here we go. Little scratch. Here we go. I don't care, says you. Okay.

Stop saying you don't care. Absolute time wasters this morning. We're trying to run a show here. I don't care, but I do want one of those

little spiky things that can push on your arm to distract you for the actual needle. I think they to run a show here. I don't care, but I do want one of those little spiky things that can push on your arm to distract you for the actual needle. I think they just use them for kids. What's that? I don't know.

Oh, I don't know what that is. Is that like one of those spiky balls that you massage your sore bits with? Oh, they're nice. They rub it up the arm so it feels like heaps of pricks

and then they go, and then one of them is the injection. Huh, maybe. I don't know. Barbara, whose middle name is Sally. Can we call her Babs? Babs. Let's call her Babs. Babs. I'm I don't know. Barbara, whose middle name is Sally. Can we call her Babs?

Babs. Let's call her Babs. Babs. I'm here for an injection. We all know it's coming. Just stick it in and move it on. That's right. That's what she said.

I love it. You see, I'm the same as Babs. Not through. So her Instagram handle is yesmynameisbabs. So I think she would be very okay with you calling her Babs. I felt it when you said it. Yeah. I felt it.

She's a big Babs energy. Molly, I like a bit of I felt it when you said it. I felt it. She's a Babs. Babs energy. Molly, I like a bit of warning when they say sharp scratch. Sharp scratch. Small scratch. Small scratch. Small scratch. Slight scratch. What about tiny prick?

Tiny prick. Tiny prick. What, you kill me? And I'll be like, it's not that tiny. And then it's in. Otherwise, I get a frightened pull away. I can't handle the anticipation, says Molly. Yeah, the anticipation's the worst bit.

Yeah. Catherine, as a vacc anticipation, says Molly. Yeah, the anticipation's the worst bit. Yeah. Catherine, as a vaccinator, I avoid doing this. It makes the patient tense up and the jabs more painful. Yeah. Yes. Because I reckon my jab was more painful yesterday because I was like, three, two, one. It doesn't matter what you're counting down to.

When you get to one and zero, you tense up. Yeah. Casual chat while I'm doing my thing is the way to go, says Catherine. Imagine if she started at 10. Yeah. Okay, here we go. Ready?

10. You'd be like, no, what are you doing? I'm a nurse. Getting close. Says Rachel, and patients will move with the countdown. It feels like the countdown

is for the nurse who might not be so confident. Like, when anyone's nervous, they count down to themselves to just give it a go. Like, if you're going to jump off a diving board. Oh, if you're not confident, please don't put a needle

in my skin. Yeah. I'm not sure that's for everyone, but that's what I'd like if I was on the receiving end of it. If I get kids that are nervous, I get them to count while I'm doing it.

They count to five as fast as they can. If I can get it done before they finish counting, I win. The competition to beat me always distracts them, but I always win.

Okay. So they're like, what did you do with a jab? Five! It's like a little competition. That works. I would like three, two, and then the injection to happen before one. Yes, surprising

me. Says Alex. Like when you do a bungee. Yeah, they push you. When you do a bungee or like a swing thing, they'll be like, okay, are you ready? Counting down in three, they'll always let you go. Immediately. Yeah, a swing thing. Yeah. They'll be like, okay, are you ready? Counting down in three. They'll always let you go immediately. Yeah, down you go.

It's good. Just stick it in me, says Andrew. I'm not a cold child and a singlet with rocks on my head. I'm a grown man. Treat me like I want to.

Stick me. Yeah, good. Stick me. Stick me. You heard it here first. Don't know what I was going to say the first time. That is what we call

a little poll. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Everyone's woken up with their Spotify raps this morning. Yeah, prepare. Prepare. Because it's story after story of what Taylor Swift is your number one artist. Yeah, probably.

We're going to talk about that a little bit later, but there's another rapt. I don't know. There's some apps that you don't want to see a rapt. I was just thinking this before. Yeah, there would be. My Audible, which is my e-book listener. Yeah.

Favourite genre. Oh, my God. Yeah. Anyway. How many times did you listen to this phrase? Yeah. You repeated this 30 seconds. You heard a slurpy noise.

That would be Quinn. Imagine if Quinn did a rap, you'd be like, oh no. They'd be like, why don't you just move to Ireland? Anyway, no,

Tinder does a rap. Okay. So I think that they do an individual rap for the users. Then I looked around this group of five. No one's using Tinder. Fletch, can you get on Tinder?

I just think it would make you more approachable. You love getting on people's Tinder and swiping. It doesn't matter who they are, you'll love it. I even thought about making a fake profile. Just so you can swipe. Just to play. Like, not to actually engage with anyone. I just, I don't know. I'm so fascinated by them

because I never got to be on them. Yeah, and be thankful about that. I know. And everyone who's on Tinder listening is like, Hayley, no, no, no, no, no. But I don't know. You always want what you can't have. Anyway, so they do a wrapped for individuals,

but they also do a general wrapped. This is for Australia. Okay. But I imagine it'll be quite similar for us. And they've got some global trends in there. So here's some of their 2024 raps. It's like trends. Tinder's Aussie trends for 2024.

Top 10 Aussie interests that people put on their profile. I'll do the top three. Sports, travel, and number one is the gym. You're going to think it's a dating app, right?

Instead of wandering for months of the status of relationships, singles on Tinder this year have been finding deeper meaning

in the small, nay nano, things that bring them closer to a partner. Cloud can mean you smoke weed. I don't know if that's what that means. Or you're a little bit like airy fairy like head in the clouds. People say sometimes you're a cloud.

Wow. Well, there you go. Those are the 2024 Tinder trends. ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. Someone on Reddit's noticed that Christopher Luxon, our dear, dear, dear Prime Minister. I think it's Luxton.

Oh, Christopher. I do apologise. The T from Christopher has migrated to Luxon, so it's Christopher Luxton. Yeah. He's selling his third investment property of the year. Yeah, I've seen some news stories about this every time he sells one. How many does he have? I know.

Didn't they do this investigation at the start? Didn't he have seven or nine? I remember it was one of the high odds. I never understand why, like, super rich people want to, like, be politicians. Like, who could be bothered? Just go be rich. Sell the houses and put your feet up. Oh, my God, I know.

Yeah. I don't begrudge you how you want to spend your money, but isn't it not a good time to sell? Is it a buyer's market? I thought it was a buyer's market. Who knows? I don't know how much he's had. I'm just trying to Google it,

but it keeps giving me other suggestions for auto. We'll just say 500. A thousand. Top six reasons Christopher Luxon's selling so many of his investment properties. Number six on the list. He's got too many. He can't keep count. Yeah, he keeps forgetting.

And driving past him, he'll be like, should I own that one? Oh, I forgot about that one. Most of we drove past him. I know your dad did it too. He drove past us. Built that. Built that oh shit, I own that one. Oh, I forgot about that one. Most of we drove past and I know your dad did it too, Fletcher drove past and said,

I built that, built that. Oh yeah, painted that one. Yeah, did that one. Yeah, yeah,

did that. He drives past and he's like, oh shit, we own that. I've been getting rent from that one. Jeez,

I didn't even think about it. Number five on the list of the top six reasons Christopher Larkson is selling so many of his investment properties, riddled with asbestos. What do you reckon? Riddled with asbestos. What do you reckon?

Riddled with asbestos. Right. Just paint over it as any good landlord would. Paint over it and make it look not like asbestos. Yeah. Thirsty though asbestos.

Yeah. It'll drink a couple of coats of paint. I don't think they do. I think they're all quite modern Vaughan. His investment properties. That's how he managed to

do it so cheaply. Yeah. Yeah. Use asbestos in a modern pill. Just got a spray gun. Thirsty. Number four on the list of the top six reasons Christopher Luxton's selling so many investment properties.

He's looking to free up a little bit of cash before Christmas because he's saving up to buy his secret Santa something very nice. Oh, it'd be good if he was your secret Santa. Because he got John Key this year. And he wants to impress John Key. And they've got to outbuy each other. Yeah, yeah.

That's how it works. Number three on the list of the top six reasons Christopher Lux is selling so many of his investment properties. Since becoming Prime Minister, he just can't manage to squeeze in doing the lawns on the weekend anymore. Too busy. You think he does his own? He doesn't get Jim in there.

He goes around all of the... He chucks the mower in the back of the Audi Q7. Folds down the handle. Gosh chucks the mower in the back of the Audi Q7. Oh. Folds down the handle. Gosh. The push mower. Yeah. And goes around, but it can't fit it all in.

Busy. Busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy. Number two on the list of the top six reasons Christopher Lux is selling so many investment properties. Have you guys seen how much money houses are worth? Payday, baby. Yeah, true. Payday, baby. Why wouldn't you?

A little payday, boom. A little payday, boom. And number one on the list of the top six reasons Christopher Larkson's selling so many investment properties. Sick and bloody tired of dealing with whinging tenants who want things like windows and running water and floors. Windows! In my day, you provided your own floors. Yeah, that's fair.

You weren't asking a landlord to provide stupid, insignificant things like floors. Yeah. We just jumped from joist to joist if there was no floor, and we were happy to do so. We were. We were just grateful for a roof. So grateful for a roof.

Which apparently now is also optional. Oh. That is today's. Our top six. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Do you know what is wild is that I'm a musical theatre lover and I haven't seen Wicked yet.

I know, you've been so busy. Time poor, but I think I'll see it next week and I cannot wait. And you're a witch. And I'm a witch. This is you. I know. I'm a musical witch. This is my musical.

I know I wouldn't like this movie, but everybody's loving it. Everyone's loving it. And I also, I was looking at my musical theatre and my theatre friends being like, they'll be the snobs who are like, oh god. Everyone's just coming to the party pretty late. Everyone's like, oh it's amazing. So I can't wait. But obviously Ariana Grande

See, I tried to do it again. Ariana Grande Ariana Grande. Has been doing the press circuit, given a lot of energy, respect for her. A lot of press. A lot of press. A lot of press. It's almost like you've already broken box office,

you can chill out. Does she have a backdoor deal? Yeah, I wondered about that. She's getting a cut. Residuals. Nah, residuals is not quite the... Backend deal. Not backdoor, by the way.

Backdoor. I knew it was back something. Backdoor, a backend door. A backdoor. Freudian there, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah.

Like a slip of the doop. Yeah, yeah, slip of the doop. Like a lot of movie stars make a lot of money from these if the movie goes huge. Is she like executive producer as well? Sometimes if they're a big name, they might be one of those. But she's been doing it,

and then so many people are misidentifying her as Hispanic. So I had to Google this. She's American Italian. Generally people say Italian American. Italian American. Italian American, yeah. But African American. I don't even think first generation Italian American.

No, I think there's just some Italian in the bloodline. Yeah, like Aaron's Italian. He's Cortese. But you wouldn't be like, there's an Italian man. You'd be like, there's a Pakeha man. There's a white guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a white guy.

She's a white woman. I had no idea until this. Do you know why? I always thought she was late Latino. For her role as Glinda, she's really embraced her natural, untanned skin. But. She's got very white skin.

Prior to that. She was almost blackface. And she went through a phase, I watched a video yesterday where she was like, I'll say she was speaking a little ghetto. You know, like she was rocking a little bit of an attitude.

So everyone was like, are you black? She's Latino. She was like blackwashing. Are you Latino? She got her start on Disney, like TV. Was it Disney or Nickelodeon?

One of those ones. And when she got into music, because that's what she looks like now is kind of what she looked like then. Yes. Just with different coloured hair. But then when she got into music, really tanned up. Yeah.

Right. Really tanned up. Someone was complaining that the casting of Wicked was so woke, casting a queer black woman in one role and a Hispanic woman in the other and everyone was just like she white bro she's straight up white

but I know, so Sade gets this all the time before I really knew Vaughan and I had just met Sade, I was like this is Vaughan's wife, yeah we got a Maori wahine on our hands I remember it was at a Have You Been Paying Attention thing and we were sitting there and I said something about Sade's dad and how he's Chinese.

Thai Chinese. Shut up. But you and Herschel were like, wait a minute, what? Yeah. And then everybody there was like, is your wife not Māori? I was like, no.

She's like, a bit of it you should see at her ancestry.com. It's wild. Oh, yeah. She could be like so many different. Everywhere we go. When we went to Hawaii, people talked to her.

Been in LA and people start talking Spanish to her. When she was pregnant in New Zealand, older Maori woman would come up and just start speaking fluent te reo and like put their hand under her stomach and everywhere we go. And so her brother's the same. They don't, no one knows where they're from. Good little mix there. Yeah, Samoa, we had Samoan.

Yeah. That's wild. Well, this is what I want to know this morning from our listeners. Do people always mistake your ethnicity for something else? Feel free to describe yourself. Feel free to give us scenarios of when this is, maybe people you've gone overseas and they have to start speaking the language to you and you just got to nod along.

And then at the end, we might say, send us a photo for proof. Now that's just for proof. Depending on your description of yourself, we may need some proof. Yeah. Or you can calm down. If you're Middle Eastern and people are always like,

I don't know where I'm from. Sometimes they think I'm, you know, Egyptian or Pakistani. Yeah, you're beautiful. Or sometimes they think I'm, like, I'll judge because I'm pretty good at casting an eye across these sorts of things. We're just trying to help out. And basically, if you are in the coffee belt, I would very much. But Cliff Curtis, right?

Everything. This has been a weapon for him. It's so good in Hollywood. Yeah. Not a lot of Maori roles in Hollywood films. It's so good in Hollywood. Yeah. Not a lot of Maori roles in Hollywood films. He's played Iranian, Mexican, black. He's just like, I want to dub it, everything. He was also not aware of Cliff Curtis syndrome

because I asked him when we interviewed him once. Was it awkward? It was very awkward. It was very awkward. Not as awkward as the time that someone interviewed him at a boxing match and then asked him questions about playing Uncle Bully and he was like, what are you doing?

Anyway, we want to know, are you always mistaken? Do people mix up your ethnicity and think it's something else? And maybe it was just an awkward situation and you couldn't get out of it and you just went along with it maybe. Maybe, yeah. Or someone started talking to you in another language and you're just like, no, I don't want, yeah.

Okay, 0800DARLS.M, give us a call. You can text through 9696. Do people always mistake your ethnicity? So everyone keeps calling Ariana Grande Hispanic. She is white. She's Italian-American. Yeah. And I mean,

I also thought this as well. I was always too scared to say what I thought she was. So you always just roll your R's just in case. Yeah. Ariana Grande. I'm glad we've had this

cemented. Yes, I think it's good. Once and for all. Now we know. But we want to know. There are some very funny messages coming in. Okay, great.

Do people always mistake your ethnicity for something else? Let's go to Ashley. Ashley, good morning. Good morning. Now, what do you get mistaken for? I thought you were going to say, now, Ashley, what are you? Where are you from?

New Zealand? No, no, like, where are you from? I get mistaken for Fijian all the time. Bula Vinaka. bula vanaka. Bula. And so I'm Jamaican Maori. Oh, wow. Jamaican Maori.

Yeah, it's a bit of a different combo. No one ever really guesses it first time. No. But the funny thing about it is that people don't, sometimes they don't ask me where I'm from. They just go, bula. Yeah, bula. And do you just, do you ba back or are you just like?

Yeah, I go Bulla and then I go, there's another one. Yeah, Bulla, whatever. Side note, are you in Auckland? Have you tried the Jamaican restaurant? Oh, no, I'm in Christchurch. Oh, okay. I went the other day. It was very good.

What the hell is a Jamaican Maori doing in Christchurch? I know. Sticking out like a sore thumb, I reckon. You know what? You know what? One time I met this person in the UK who also was a Jamaican Maori, and he said he called his kids Jamiwis. Jamiwis!

Oh, my God, that's perfect. You're a Jamiwi. And it also kind of reminds me of that band Jamiroquai. Yeah, it's great. Oh, yeah, nice. Nice. Spot on. Oh, that's so good, Ashley.

Love you here from our resident Jamiai. Yeah, it's great. Oh, yeah, nice. Spot on. Oh, that's so good, Ashley. Love to hear from our resident Jamiwi. Yeah, thank you, Ashley. Shane, you were in... Can I just say how well restrained I was during that last call? Really good. Really good. I don't think I'm getting quite enough commendation on how...

No, no problem. I didn't, like, ask for an Instagram account. A Fijian-looking Jamaican-Maldi. Yeah. Oh, horrible. Good morning, Shane. What do you get mistaken for? Well, I... And this only happens in Europe. Multiple times, multiple countries, Good morning Shane What do you get mistaken for? Well I

What about your features? As a European or as a gay In Europe I'm both It's the open shirt It's the boat shoes It's the tucked into the shorts It's the same with some it's the boat shoes. Buongiorno. It's the tucked into the shorts. It's the same with some of those English guys.

You're like, gay or just British? Yeah, yeah, it's hard to tell. A chair boy, is he gay? So what do you think are your features that make people think that you're Italian? Well, I am white on rice with a cup of bleach to wash it down. And blonde hair, I do not know rice with a cup of bleach to wash it down. And blonde hair. I do not know.

Okay. Wow. God. Maybe it's you wear a lot of open linen shirts, Shane. Maybe. I don't know. Maybe it's the linen. I had a nose job.

Maybe I've got a Roman nose now. Oh. Roman nose. It's the Roman nose. Okay, Roman nose. That was not intentional. That was not intentional. Yeah.

Is that what happens when you get a nose job? You just flick through the clear file with tattoos and you're like, that. That was not intentional. That was not intentional. Yeah. Is that what happens when you get a nose job? You just flick through the clear file with tattoos and you're like, that. That one. That one. It was septorhinoplasty, thanks. Oh, right. What is that? Oh, right.

It's what everybody who gets a nose job says. I was the deviated septum. I didn't take a photo of Fabio and say, this is what I want. Fabio's got a good nose though, Shane. Well, no, I got smashed by the goose when he was on the rollercoaster. He had to get rebuilt. That's right, he got smashed by a goose, didn't he? Yeah, he was on a rollercoaster and a goose flew

in front of him and smashed him in the face. Shane, thank you. Some more messages. How do you do, Chee? I'm a white woman. I'm a white woman presenting when I'm actually half Indian. Some guy in Fiji thought I was Chinese. How about that for a combo? Wow. I'm as ginger as it gets.

And I once had an Indian woman ask me if I was Indian because of my hairy arms. Oh my god, I've had that once. What do you mean? I was having a beauty appointment and an Indian beautician asked me if I was a little bit Indian because I had such coarse hair.

Oh, really? I was like, no, I've just got polycystic ovarian syndrome. Hmm. Hmm. White. Hmm. My brother's full-blown English. We moved to New Zealand when he was 10.

He's now 30 and so tanned everyone thinks he's Maori. Oh, yeah. The rare tanned Brit. This is actually a really sensitive topic for some people. Someone messaged in and I feel for them. I've been mistaken for pure people. Someone messaged in, and I feel for them, I've been mistaken for pure white, but actually I'm Scottish and Irish, and that's really offensive.

I'm so sorry. That must be really, that must really hurt. Everyone thinks my mate's half Filipino, but she's just white. That's a good problem to have. Yeah. That's a great problem to have. God, you're being so restrained.

I am really practising my restraint. So restrained. I'm Pakeha but married to a Māori man with dark hair and eyes and I work in a predominantly Pakeha industry and constantly get asked to lead a karakia and be the Māori representative. Oh, yes. Would anyone like to say a karakia? I'm good, thank you. I'm Māori with a

very Māori name, but if I use my name over the phone and walk in, the server looks shocked. People will see my pākehā, then I say my name and they look shocked again. It's just shocked, shocked, shocked. We've got often Māori, people often mistaking variants of

like Southeast Asian for Māori. I suppose we will kind of hark from the same place, the Garden of Eden. Take me there. Does it need weeding? Put me there. My ex was an ethnic chameleon. He's Filipino, but he's got-

That's a good term. An ethnic chameleon. An ethnic chameleon. He had, in the list I've kept being confused, there's Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese, Mexican. He has R-series from Vanuatu and got a local arrival card flying into Egypt. He could be a spy.

They should choose those kind of looks as a spy. Somebody said, I work in retail. I constantly get asked if I'm Jewish because of my name. They don't say what their name is. And apparently I look Jewish, and sometimes people even say Shalom. Born in Greymouth. I know nothing about the Jewish religion or faith whatsoever. Shalom all the way to Greymouth.

Shalom, shalom. Shalom to Westport as well if we're over there. We might as well. I'm half Laotian, half European. I often get Maori or Hawaiian. Hey, boy, that restraint's slipping. A little drink there. Once I went to Yumcha.

Hold on, now we're talking about Yumcha. And the staff spoke Chinese to me oh wow okay yeah my mum who's Loatian was not happy oh yeah

what a delightful mixed bag I'm a Maori South African but I guess wait did they say what they got at yum cha they didn't

but they went I like to think it was pretty authentic soup dumplings I hope I hope they got some chicken feet you'd be mad not to get soup dumplings

um oh my god are you talking about the top 10 yes I hope they got some chicken feet. You'd be mad not to get soup dumplings. Oh, my God. Are you talking about the top ten? Yes. It's so bad. I don't even know if you can say that word. Birthed my daughter and the doctor said,

is her father Oriental? What? Narbo. She's an East Coast girl from Wairoa. Now, we're talking about, I don't think you can say Oriental anymore. How old was that doctor? Like some old mate?

Oriental? Is her father from the Orient? No, are you from the 1800s? Jesus. You don't say that anymore. That is about our friend's baby when the baby was born the Maldi babies do look Asian at birth

sometimes but I would never say you wouldn't know it's the father from the Orient oh my god I reckon when a baby comes out as well just don't say anything about the father or it looking like the father or anything.

Yeah. Oh gosh. That is good stuff. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. 19 days, 16 hours, 26 minutes until Christmas.

I'm getting really excited. I love Christmas Day. I love the festive spirit of it. I love the, I just, I don't know. I've always loved Christmas. I'm ready for it. No gifts this year. Well, our reports of Christmas, I feel like because, and we've said this, because Halloween just goes so crazy.

It was delayed. It just kind of delays. That pushes that. And then I feel like Black Friday sales have to be done before you get into your proper like Christmas sales. There's the hint of Christmas. Yeah. Yeah.

But so many reports of like the big Christmas tree in Auckland's been up. And you know what? People are whinging about how much that cost. But people are loving it. I haven't seen it. It's got like a bajillion lights in it. Can you take a photo for me? Oh, thank you, I will.

Thank you. And then I, as a rate payer. Yeah, you can feel happy. Who is paying city rates for rural service. Oh, you shut up. I'm not happy about it. Boo hoo. I might come in and see it.

Yeah. You should. You should bring the kids. Depending. And all and see it. Yeah. You should. You should bring the kids. Depending. And all the malls have the big trees up, the decorations. When I bring the kids in, should we come over to your place? Absolutely not. And then I'll leave them with you for a few hours.

Absolutely not. And Sade and I can go out and have a meal. No. Uncle Fletchy. What do you do? No. Drop them in Auntie Hayley's. No, they can't.

I've got, my things are too nice. I want their grubby fingers on my nice things. It is weird when we're talking about teenage, sort of teenage girls like that, toddlers or something. I know, they'll run around, they'll knock things. They'll cry, they'll cry all the time. What if they wet themselves on my couch? You know, I can't be having that.

All right, Tash said, this is a bit of a surprise. She just jumped on board a Qantas flight and in seat, this is a bit of a surprise. She just jumped on board a Qantas flight and in seat 29B is a full Christmas gooey. What? What? Is it a gooey?

Oh, yeah. The great graphic user interface. Yeah. That's the technical term for the TV screen. Oh. I've never heard that in my days.

Until we met someone and I was like, what do you do for a job? And he's like, I work with the gooey's on a plane. And I was like, that's very funny. I knew that until we met someone. I was like, what do you do for a job? And he's like, I work with the guis on a plane. And I was like, that's very funny. I don't know what you're talking about. It says the Qantas, what is it?

A kangaroo. Yeah. Has got a Rudolph nose and antlers. It says Merry Christmas. Welcome on board. Let's go. And then it's like full Christmas themed. I'd like to show you.

Because red is Qantas' colour by default. Yeah, that's nice. So an easy transition to a Christmas gooey. I saw they chucked a couple of Santas on their planes as well. Yeah. A bit late as well. It's going to be outdated in like three weeks. I just realised we get to eat candy canes soon. I like candy canes. Ooh, yuck.

Yeah, I really do. No time. I hang them on my tree and I eat them slowly but surely. Yuck. New Zealand Post has announced its Christmas cut-off dates and they're pretty close, if not already passed. Internationally probably already passed. I tried to send something 15 days ago overseas and it hasn't arrived. It was on the 20th of November I sent something.

Did you skimp on postage? No, I did good postage. It was $90 and it hasn't arrived. $90? It was a t-shirt. Yeah. It was crazy. I remember sending like a bunch of chocolate bars to a friend in London.

Yeah. It was so expensive. Yeah, this was Ireland. It's so expensive. Explain to me how I can get free postage from Timu. I know. On a two cent item that I paid one cent for. I do not know.

It's wild, eh? I literally don't know how they're making money. It's a whole car. Yeah. It was two cents and it's a car. And then if I buy another car, I get three more free cars. Yeah.

The Rockefeller Centre Christmas tree lighting will be happening today. That's Christmas. That's a big indicator of Christmas. It's rocky any minute because it's around 7pm on December 4th there. December 5th P&L. Also, Spotify wrapped us out.

That's also another sign. I've got a text this morning. Good morning, Hayley. In case you haven't received numerous heads-ups, there's a pop-up shop on Duvois Road in Ponsonby that sells Christmas tree bird ornaments. That's my theme, birds and flowers. Birds and flowers is your theme.

Oh, wow. I thought of Hayley as soon as I saw it. Love the show. Merry Christmas. Okay, well, Merry Christmas. I's my theme. Birds and flowers. Birds and flowers is your theme. Oh, wow. I thought of Hayley as soon as I saw it. Love the show. Merry Christmas. Okay, well, Merry Christmas. I also said Merry Christmas to somebody this week. Oh, I haven't done. I haven't started. No, I won't do that until... It's someone I'm not going to see again. The 20th. Oh,

yeah. No, 15th. 15th feels right. You go into a shop. See you later. Have a good Christmas. Merry Christmas. And then I'm like, happy new year and it's April. I always do that. Happy new year. Because you haven't seen anyone for ages. They're like, yeah, well, time's rolling on.

Till the 20th. Till I go back to work, I'll say happy new year. Okay. And then it's no longer happy. So I'll stop saying it. And finally, for reports of Christmas penetration. We've got any current promotions running with Pepsi-Cola? The Pepsi-Cola company?

I don't know. I believe that's how they like to be referred to, in full names. No, I'm unsure. Because if we do have a promo running with them, I'll say, wow, they've got a really interesting new flavour that I'd love to try. Right.

If we're not running a promo with them, I'm about to say they've canned vomit. Okay, well, I don't know. I'm going to say this is an exciting new flavour that I can't wait to try because you know me, I'm a money man. I'm here to make the company money. You are. I don't want to scare off any advertisers.

Yeah. Pepsi have a new flavour just out for Christmas. Zero sugar gingerbread flavoured Pepsi. Oh. Hayley. I don't know if... Oh, my God. What am I doing with this? Ooh, water. Yeah. When know if... Oh, yeah. Oh, it's not in my mouth.

What am I doing with this? Oh, water. Yeah. When I need delicious gingerbread peppers. That could actually taste nice. I had gingerbread caramel corn the other day. Like popcorn. Yum. Gingerbread flavoured caramel popcorn.

Oh, yeah, that's nice. Yeah. Okay. But that goes together. That goes together. Well, last thing. Last thing. I was driving into work this morning and I was like, man, I hope we reach full Christmas

penetration and we can find out about the Christmas orphans. I drove past them dead on the road. You did not! I couldn't believe it. I was driving along and I was like, man, I can't wait to hear about them. I looked over and I was like, what's that? Is that a pile of dirt? I was like, that's I can't wait to hear about them. I looked over and I was like, what's that? Is that a pile of dirt? I was like, that's two small orphans.

Not true. It was. I'm sure it was them, Vaughn. With all that in mind, no, it can't be. I'm sure it was them. It looks like them. The vocal cords, Mariah. Right now, Christmas penetration is at 100%.

And you know what that means. Whenever we hit 100%, we have to play Mariah. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. It's Mariah Carey on ZM All I Want for Christmas because Christmas penetration has reached 100%. 100%. 100%. 19 sleeps away from Christmas.

19. How many pain days is that? Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Now, we are joined on the phone by the lovely Kendall. Good morning, Kendall. Good morning, guys.

Kendall, have you done your Spotify rap yet? I'm about to do it, and I'm pretty sure that Taylor's going to be one of my top artists. If not the top. I was going to say, if she's not. We're revoking your tickets. Yes, because the reason we are talking to you, Kendall, is because you won our trip to see Taylor Swift in Canada. For her last show of the ginormous Eras tour. Oh my gosh.

Remind me the date. So this is happening in a few days, right? Yes. So we fly out on Saturday. I'm taking my girlfriend. She flies in from being overseas for three months tonight. So I pick her up from the airport tonight and then we leave on Saturday and her last show is on the Sunday.

Oh my gosh. Wow. Okay, that's going to be amazing. Have you seen Taylor Swift play live before? Never. No, I tried to get tickets when she was in Aussie but couldn't get it. We queued for hours on the ticket page but you've made my dream come true.

Do you think that being the last show, do you've made my dream come true. Oh, Kendall. Do you think that, being the last show, do you think that she's going to do anything, like, are you hoping for maybe some kind of, like, announcement, some new music, maybe? I hope so. I think that's what we're always hoping for

from Tay-Tay. She always pulls through and amazes us no matter what, so it's going to be amazing. I can't wait. And, Kendall, have you got your outfit sorted? So, funny you say that.

We had a secret Santa at work two days ago and one of my close friends got me a Swifty tracksuit from Bottom. So I'm going to be wearing that on the plane. Oh, wow. For our Heiress outfit, we're going to do a crafting day tomorrow, my girlfriend and I. So we're going to be all done.

Crafting day, this is so fun. I'm thinking a lot of diamantes are going to be being sucked up your vacuum. Kendall, have an amazing time. Let us know how it goes.

Yes. Tag us in your posts. I want to see you enjoying this concert. Cold in Vancouver, so wrap up. Oh yeah, what temps have we got there?

Currently six degrees. But I mean, what time is it there? In the morning, yeah. Yeah, okay. You'll be all right. You'll be all right. It's like lunchtime there. Just put on a leotard.

You'll be dancing hard enough. Take a jacket. Take a warm puffer. We don't want Kendall catching a chill. Not before Christmas. Thank you, guys. Enjoy yourself. Live it up.

Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Yesterday afternoon I was doing some yard work and my daughters were home, so I was after school. Four o'clock. Yeah. And they were kind of like waving and I took my earmuffs off. I said, what? They said, did you hear that bang?

And I said, no. UFO. And they said, the power's gone out. Mum said, the power's gone out. Meteor. Yeah, I thought meteor through the roof. Yeah. Meteor through the local substation. Wow. Bang. And I was like, the power's gone out. I was. Yeah, I thought meteor through the roof. Yeah. Meteor through the local

substation. Wow. Bang. And I was like, the power's gone out. I was like, that's weird. And then I was like, I wonder what's happened. And then we saw somebody just up the road from us turning cars around. Oh my God. And I was like, oh. UFO landing. I got out my

binoculars. Oh my God. Of course you've got binoculars. Do you know what? These binoculars were a promo, a pair of binoculars to promote their TV show Lost. Oh my god, they're so old. I know. These are old ass binoculars. Yeah, they're alright. They're okay.

They're not like great. They're like super binoculars. Yeah. My dad's got a really good pair of binoculars. I want one of those ones that like the Navy SEALs use when they're like on a hill and they like zoom in and it's got like all digital stuff on it. Yeah, like distance and stuff. Yeah, that would be cool.

And then if it gets dark, you can flip the switch. It goes... And it's night mode. I want one that looks at the moon and then I realise it's a telescope. Yeah. So I was with my lost binoculars, like Matthew Fox on season one of Lost. Yeah. So I was with my lost binoculars, like Matthew Fox on season one of Lost.

Yeah. And Evangeline Lilly's there. And then no one else's name I can remember. Dominic Monaghan. Yep. That'll do. I scan the road and I see at a certain point I say to myself, I say, those power lines shouldn't be lying on the ground like that.

And so. It was a car crash. So the bang was, we weren't quite sure at that stage what, but I was watching the power, looking at the power lines going along the road and then there was this big dip. And I was like, that's not how they work. Shouldn't dip. I'm pretty sure they're supposed to stay up. They stay up.

And so I was, then there was some flashing lights and then I could see the guy on the corner of the road turning people around was in high vis and it all got too much for me and I was like I need to go have a look yeah oh why are you such a nosy parker

because otherwise he'll never know I sort of get it I need to see it for myself I need to see it but I need to know what's happening

I can't do anything about it well can I maybe I could be of assistance here we go here we go. So I jump on the quad bike and I blad up the road. The quad bike? I know you're not supposed to do that.

You're bladding up the road on a quad bike. You're doing this to appear more masculine as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally. You're just turning up in your little chimney. Pull up and the man that I could see that's turning cars around is a member of the New Zealand Fire Service.

Oh my god. And to them we say love the calendar. Huge fan. Stop testing them. That's what I'd say. Were any of them the ones on the calendar? I love your work predominantly on the calendars. And also the saving lives stuff. I only dealt with one representative of the New Zealand Fire Service but he

had some pretty New Zealand Fire Service shades on. Oh, yeah. Do they have those shoe shades? No, no, they don't have those shoe shades, but you look at them and you're like, those are fireman shades. Aviators.

Not really. Okay. Sort of a modern aviator. Service station sunglasses. Nah, like good sunglasses. Was he a bit of me? Nah, no offence to him. He was definitely a bit of something,

but he wasn't a bit of you. I'm not into a lot of very hot people. That's just my preference. Yeah. So I... I like them dirty. I'm like, what's happened? And he said, someone's clipped a power pole. Oh no. And so I look

and I can see the car and it's... How annoying for them, eh, what's happened? What's happened? None of your business? None of your business. Go home? So then I say... Get out of our way. You're obstructing justice. You're obstructing the road. I'm not obstructing the road.

I park the quad bike off the road. Oh my God. And now you're- I'm also in high- I'm in high-vis too. I'm in high-vis, brother. Oh, F off. I'm in high-vis on a quad bike.

No one's going to miss me. Yeah. And I'm talking to a fellow- A fellow what? A fellow what? A fellow what? The second half of that better just be man. A fellow human. Yeah.

About the perils of driving around corners too quickly. Right. And he clipped the power. I don't know. He or she has clipped the power line and brought the pole down. So to me, I said. I can hear you, Tony, thinks it's a she. I heard that.

Yeah. He or she has probably clipped the power line. Your Honour, I plead the fifth. No, I heard it. You don't have to plead anything. I heard it. It was intended. And I said, whoa, more than a clip because the power line's down.

Oh, my, he doesn't want your shit chat. He can see that. He doesn't want your chat. Do you guys need anything? Like what? Oh, yeah. Oh, actually, we need another hose. We need anything? Like what? Oh, yeah. Oh, actually, we need another hose. We don't have enough water.

Oh, yeah. There's no hoses out. There's no danger of fire. They're doing more. They do more than fire. What were you hoping for them to say? We need another set of hands. Man hands.

Yeah, we need another hands. Or, you know, got something to do. Go home. Go home, Paul. I could hook the quad up drag the car out of the ditch what are you going to make

them a cup of tea they're working and he's like what do you mean like what like and I said oh like do you have

water or because it was a very hot day and he's in his full uniform and he's standing in like the heat like an umbrella

or something how long is he going to be standing there it's hot we have a water bottle probably he said you've

got water this is so embarrassing. I'm so embarrassed for you. Why are you doing this? People know that we publicly associate with him. It's so embarrassing. You dragged us down. I was offering him shade from the hot, hot pump. Shade? Oh my god.

Do you want an umbrella or something? He's doing his job. I don't know. All good, thanks. And I said, any idea how long it's going to be? What? I'm not hurrying him along. I'm not hurrying him along. And he's like, I don't know, all good, thanks. And I said, any idea how long it's gonna be? And he's like, oh, don't hurry him there. I'm not hurrying him along. I'm not hurrying him along. And he's like, at this stage... I need to charge my phone. Oh my god. At this stage

we're not quite sure. I was like, oh, all good. Shall I pop up later with some food for you guys? Oh, stop it. What are you gonna do? Do a leg of lamb? Well, no, the power's out. We ended up getting fish and chips. Yeah, so what were you going to bring them? What, a bag of chips from the pantry?

I'll drive up there and I'll say to the woman at the fish and chip shop, who regardless of how much you order, it's going to be 10 minutes. I drive up there and I'll be like, what do you guys want? Do you guys want just the fish and chips? You're so embarrassing. What were you wanting from this? Hang out, crab stick. Hang out, hot dog.

Just drop us some five-star crab sticks in the middle of their hot day. I wanted a closer look. I wanted to be like, come on, mate. You're still going to let you do that health and safety thing. I know, but I wanted a look. I'm going to end this with one really thirsty tweet

that we've just received. You know I get thirsty. Tweet? Text. Howweet? Text. How embarrassing, Grandma. You know I get thirsty for the firefighters, but someone messaged in, if I was in a car accident and Vaughan showed up on a quad bike,

I think I'd pretend to be dead. No, they pretend to be dead so they don't have to talk to me. Oh, yeah, there you go. That's better. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Great Reddit thread of, and it's men complaining about things women have done on first dates

See it's not just us Often when we do these things it is the other way around Someone shared a story of going on a very first date and this fellow was saying when he goes on a first date he'll always leave his phone in the car so that he can be present

because like us it's just an automatic thing. You just pick it up, right? She, however, sat there texting. He could see she was on apps the whole time, just like that. She obviously wasn't into him then. Well, I mean, they've just arrived. They've just sat down for dinner. Was she doing a parking app?

Because those can be a little bit confusing sometimes. No, he said this was a little bit ago. It was Twitter. So she was on Twitter. So she's not a parking app. Because those can be a little bit confusing sometimes. No, he said this was a little bit ago. It was Twitter. So she was on Twitter. So she's not engaging at all. So he sat there in silence, trying to make a point of the silence for a while, and then thought, yeah, screw this,

and said, can you stay off your phone long enough for us to actually engage in a conversation? To which she said, uh-huh, just a second, and then was on the phone. So this kind of sparked this Reddit thread of the things that women do on a first date or that women have done on a first date that was an instant turn off.

And they're great. I invited her to the theatre for a nice meal, trying to give her some conversation while she was on her phone the whole time. Then in the subway, she sits next to me and caught eyes with a guy across and started talking to him. That was the immediate I'm out.

She's just not that into you. Yeah. Imagine being that other guy, though. That'd feel pretty good. Yeah. She told me some friends were coming over with some illicit substances. And since they didn't know me, I had to leave. So he'd gone over to have a nice time.

Then she was like, actually, my friends are bringing over some party fun. And why did he have to leave? Because they didn't know if he was like an arc or not. She was awful to the waitstaff and immediately I was like, no way. That's a giant red flag. Yeah, totally. There's so many examples

and this is what I want to hear from our listeners. Yes. When you've been on a first date, what was the thing that immediately made you go, and no, this is not the one. And no, either sex. the one. And no. Either sex. Any sexes, whatever. I just want

to know that thing. Maybe it was maybe it was a smell. Maybe it was something they said. Maybe it was a behavioral thing. Yeah. Anything. And then as soon as you've got that ick, you just can't get past it. You're just like, no, it's done. Yeah. And then you've got to go through

with the rest of the meal or the rest of the date. Yeah. It's horrible. Or you don't. Yeah, that's true. Maybe some people do bail, don't they? You just go, do you know what?

You're so awful, I'm out. Give us a call, 0800-DARLS-AT-M. You can text through 9696. What did someone do on a first date that immediately put you off? There is a great Reddit thread with, and it is just men popping off about the women and the things that women did on a first date

that made them go instantly, no. No, I'm out. That's a no. That's it. We're not going on another one of these. You're never getting past this one thing. So guys or girls, it doesn't matter. What did someone do on a first date

that just made you say, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. When you read these, you think humans, eh? Yeah. That's why I avoid them at all costs. Jenna, what was it that he did on a date that you just couldn't get past? Good morning, guys. He couldn't parallel park.

How embarrassing for us. And so ick. How badly? Because sometimes it is a tight park. Oh, I know. You give it another go. No, no, no, no. It was in, like, a small car.

It was, like, you know, like a little starlet or something. I can't remember what it was. Yeah. And he picked me up, so I was like, oh, I don't really like being picked up because then I can't go when I want to go. Yes, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so he's parallel parking in a street down in Wellington. And I said to him, oh, do you want me to do it? And he's like, no, no, no, I've got this, I've got this.

And I'm like, oh, you don't. So, okay, I was like, oh, good. And then, okay, and did you go through with the date as well? I didn't leave, he picked me up. Yeah, you had to. So I couldn't go. But you knew that it was the last date. Oh, it was so bad.

It was so bad. Because I'm used to driving all kinds of vehicles. Like, I've spoken to you before. My parents have American cars. Oh, yes, yes, yes. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and so I'm like, come on, dude, this is tiny.

You can do it, right? It's a Suzuki Swift, my dude. Can you still do it when you say, come on, dude, this is tiny, you can do it, still talking about the car or...? No, absolutely was talking about the car. It was none of that after she had to watch Parallel Park. No, Jenna, thank you. Jesse, what happened on a first date that made you say nah?

So I was on a first date with a girl. We were talking about where we were from. Yep. And she was from Auckland. She had lived in Auckland her whole life. She was 25 and she had never left the area of Auckland. She had been as far as Welshford and she had been as far as like the Bombays, but not outside.

And for you, you were just like, nah. Well, at the time I was going overseas, I was going to the UK, I was going to the US and I was like, I don't know how you can be that age and in New Zealand, not necessarily travel overseas, but not

outside your region. You haven't invented on a road trip at least. I mean, we're just an hour out of delightful Hamilton. You know, take a road trip. I mean, I grew up moving all over the country. By the time I was 10, I'd pretty much seen the whole of New Zealand. It's a great country, eh? Just we all agree on that.

Yeah, we all agree. It's beautiful. Okay, well, that's a deal breaker. Jesse, thank you. Some messages. Jesse sounded hot, eh? You need to calm down. I'm just saying, we just had a bit of a sexy show

today. Yeah, okay. He did sound alright. He did, eh? You wanted to read one of your quins. I just want to let him know I'm quite well travelled. She's been lots of places. I lived in Oman for a while. Me with tattoos and him saying, I don't like tattoos. I prefer piercings.

I like to suck on them. That's a no. That's a no. Okay. Went on a dinner date for our first date. He wore a hoodie to a dinner date. Immediate no. But how cold was it? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

Yeah, I get it though. You know. Pop on a jacket. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, I get it though. You know, pop on a jacket. Yeah. Yeah. Somebody else kind of along those lines said, I was going to quite a nice restaurant on a date with a girl and she turned up, she packed her own food because she didn't want to have to pay. She'd looked at how much it was going to cost online.

That's so full of noise. So she packed her own food, sat down and started dating. I was like, that's insane. That's insane. Here's a double whammy on a first date. Went on a date with a guy. He asked if I was Jewish because I had a big nose. And then grabbed my wrist and said,

try to get away to show how strong he was from CrossFit. Try to get away. So bad. You won't be able to. It's the implication. Look how strong I am. That is terrible. I've just insulted your appearance. Yeah. the implication. Look how strong I am. That is terrible. I've just insulted your appearance.

Yeah. And now I'm throwing it away. If you wanted to, you couldn't if I was fighting you. I'm a person of colour. A dude literally bit my hand softly and said, I just wanted to see if you tasted like chocolate too. This is a true story. My God.

This is a true story. On God. This is a true story. On our first date in 2016, he said two things. One, Jennifer Lawrence is overrated. Two, I'm glad you're not a nurse. I know too many nurses. Turns out he was nervous and trying to sound cool.

Oh, yeah. He is delightful and we're married with two dogs now. Okay, okay, that's okay. Does he still think Jennifer Lawrence is overrated? I think she's rated now. think she's appropriately right a few movies under about yeah yeah yeah good actually more than i say yeah yeah she even took a break didn't she from hollywood she had a kid

i went on a i went on a bumble date with a good looking guy like turned up he was good looking guy got to the pub he smiled he had no front teeth just none I saw all of his photos there was no visible teeth oh I forgot yeah okay

that's called teeth fishing I went on I very much so I went on a date the guy told me he rented a room in a gang house

but I'm not in the gang I couldn't get out of there fast enough I also can't imagine the mongrel mob on Airbnb yeah no I don't think they do yeah when enough. I also can't imagine the mongrel mob on Airbnb. Yeah, no, I don't think they do.

Yeah, when you accidentally... Looking for a flatmate? Yeah, when you accidentally click, you know, not entire place, but just a room in someone's house. Yes. Yeah, you turn up, you're like, oh, no. Yeah. Might have been a long-term rent. Might have been mad.

Oh, my God, did you see overnight, Italy, the entire country, banned... Pastor. Banned self self check-ins on Airbnb. They're sick of lockboxes. That's all I even do. Just because you're sick of lockboxes, it doesn't mean you outlaw

the most convenient way to check into an Airbnb. I don't want to meet Lorenzo on the street. I can't be bothered. Also, they don't want to meet you on the street. No, Lorenzo just tells me where the key is. I'm fine. What if Lorenzo's a hot Italian? What if it's Lorenzo? Speaking of, somebody said that one of the first things the guy said on a date was,

I've never eaten Italian food before. And that was just the tip of the iceberg. You've never had a pizza? You've never had pasta? This is a classic one. Lots of this. First date with a guy within two minutes, ex-girlfriend was mentioned. What are you doing? What are you doing? It's 101.

By the end of the date, it was as if he hadn't gotten over her. Guy said right at the start of the date, I'm sorry if I'm in a bit of a funny mood, my wife died two weeks ago. Poor dude. I put that down to him being

in shock, right? And thinking, maybe I need a date again. Obviously not. She would have wanted me to date again. I immediately right? And thinking, maybe I need a date again. Obviously not. She would have wanted me to date again. I immediately regret this. I'm going to need to explain to this person. That's tough. What is the correct amount of time after your wife dies? Oh, God.

It's up to the individual. A guy told me I had a body built for mukbangs. That's that thing where you eat real quick and real noisy and video yourself doing it. I personally would not take that as a compliment. I personally would not want to hear that. Oh, I got asked. It said on your profile there was a Colombian flag.

I had to look it up. So do you have access to drugs or? Oh, for God's sake. It's not the one, eh? No. Not the one at all. Dinner date, he said dress casual. Dinner date, he said dinner date.

Jesus. Dinner date, spit it out. He said dress casual. Yeah. And I was like, okay. So I dressed sort of smart casual. Yeah. He turned up on Crocs with socks on.

That's comfortable though. That's comfortable. Four wheel drive, like sports mode Crocs or relaxing mode. Went on a date with a girl to the Saw movie. She just laughed through all the scary bits and the gruesome bits. What a psycho. Why'd you go to the Saw movie together? Went on a date to a Chinese restaurant.

He started mimicking the waitress's accent when ordering. No. Imagine. At least you find out there and not on your wedding night. And then he's got a speech. I know the staff working there pours a glass of wine. You're like, what are you doing? On our wedding day. It's our wedding day

and our first day was at a Chinese restaurant where the waitress sounded like this and then does it in front of everybody. You'd be like, uh-oh. Yeah. Uh-oh. Held the slip through. Uh-oh. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. It's Walt Disney week here at Fact of the Day. The man, not the company. Although I did see an interesting thing because I always get confused between Disney World and Disneyland. Oh, yeah. Disney World has O-R-L in it, Orlando. Yeah.

Disneyland has L-A in it, land. Oh, that's how you know. Oh, my God. I will never forget that now. Disney World is in Orlando. Thank you. What's in Tokyo? Disney.

Disneyland. Yes. Because it's got a land in it, and Tokyo is on land. That's how I remember that one. That's how you remember that one. You remember that one, yeah. And I can tell you today's Facebook. They should have called it Disney-yo. Disney-yo.

Yeah. Disney-yo Tokyo. Disney-yo Tokyo. And isn't there one in Paris? Yes. Euro, that's called Euro Disney. They should have called it Le Disney. Le Disneyland.

Le Disneyland. Easy to remember. Let's keep going. Where's the other one? Shanghai's got one, is that right? Yeah, they should have called it Shang Disney. It's not even trying. You're not even really trying anymore.

I think I might have fallen apart. You're losing your mind. Disney High. Yeah, Disney High is better. It's not recommended to go to Disneyland High. It can be a bit of a full-on experience. Lots of people do, but it can be especially... It's a small world and they just sing it over and over again.

Oh, gosh. Okay, today's Walt Disney Fact is Walt Disney is in a very exclusive group amongst people with the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He's in this group with Mel Blanc, who... Is the voice of... The voice of thousands of cartoon characters. Mike Myers and Jim Henson. Mike Myers.

Yeah. Jim Henson. Walt Disney. Mel Blanc. So they've all got something in common. They've all got something in common. What does Mike Myers have in common with him? Voices.

The voice like Shrek. Voiced Shrek. You're on the right path. Yeah, voice. He was Austin Powers. No, you're off the right path. Yeah, voice, voice. He was Austin Powers. No, you're off the path. Go back to Disney-o. He voiced Shrek.

Yes. Walt Disney was. Voiced. Mickey. Correct. Mel Blanc. Mel Blanc's voiced. Most famously.

Moof. Wormtap, wormtap, dog. Bugs Bunny. Wormtrap Dog. Wormtrap Dog. Bugs Bunny. And Jim Henson was? Kermit the Frog. Kermit the Frog. So. Green.

They were all green. No. Oh. We've kind of already settled on it. They've both got Hollywood. They've all voiceovered characters. Hollywood Walker fame stars. We didn't need to keep going with the colour of them.

We'd already answered it. Right. For themselves. Yep themselves and their character. Okay. So Mike Myers has a Hollywood Walk of Fame star for being Mike Myers. Does Shrek have one? Shrek's got a Hollywood Walk of Fame. I don't think they should do characters.

I don't think they should do that. It's people. It's silly. People are betraying these characters. Yeah. It is silly actually. What's Shrek ever done? Nothing. He they are in themselves. It is silly, actually. What's Shrek ever done?

How silly? Nothing. He's an animated character. He's not real. And it's weird because if you don't know how it works, you've got to pay for it, eh? You have to apply for it. Someone nominates you or you apply for it? Someone nominates you.

Yeah, and oftentimes it's their agent. Yeah, their agent or the production they're working on so they nominate them so who nominated shrek donkey donkey i'd say so yeah right the gingerbread man yeah maybe he could have come in there not the chocolate buttons gumdrop buttons gumdrop buttons yeah but the voice was wrong no you got it wrong so it wasn't good. Not the chocolate buttons. Not the gumdrop buttons. No, it's better. Not the chocolate buttons. No, it's gumdrop buttons.

Not the caramel buttons. Not the gumdrop buttons. So, I'll give you the exact wording. Jim Hansen has been honoured as himself and Kermit the Frog on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Mel Blanc has honoured himself and as Bugs Bunny. Walt Disney as himself and Mickey Mouse. And Mike Myers as both himself for his Wayne's World work.

Yep. And Austin Powers, as you said. And also the character Shrek. But who decides what characters get these stars? It's stupid. They nominate them. And if they've made enough of a cultural impact. Yeah.

What about like Cartman? Oh my God, yes, Cartman. If you're talking about cultural impact, what about Beavis and Butthead? What did they get? Just Cartman. Okay my God, yes, Cartman. If you're talking about cultural impact, what about Beavis and Butthead? What did they get? Just Cartman. Do any of the Simpsons characters? Yeah, totally.

I'd love to have Hollywood. I tell you what, Hollywood Walk of Fame could be a good fact of the day. Yeah, actually, I'm loving this. Bugs Bunny, Snow White, The Simpsons, Big Bird, Woody Woodpecker, Mickey Mouse, The Rugrats, Kermit the Frog, Godzilla, Shrek, Winnie the Pooh, Snoopy, Tinkerbell and Donald Duck. But no, Carmen, that is disgusting.

If you want to talk about cultural impact, you know what Carmen would say if he found out he didn't have a Hollywood Walker fan? He'd say, excuse me guys, I'm going to hit. That is good. Not as good as my gingerbread man. Your gingerbread man wasn't good. Not the raspberry buttons. the go-drop buttons Today's fact of the day Is that

Walt Disney has A Hollywood Walk of Fame star For himself and also Mickey Mouse Fact of the day Day day, day, day, day, day. Yesterday, I was working outside, as I have been, getting ready for this council inspection today. Thoughts and prayers welcome.

You'd recommend renovating, wouldn't you you to anyone? Oh my god to anyone. Is it true the older the house the better? The older the house. What you want to find is quite a run down house. Ideally older than 100. And you want to buy it too small so that you need to extend. Do you recommend buying at the peak of a

property? Yeah so don't buy now. You want to have bought about three years ago. Because that way the house, even now, is worth less than then, right? Yeah, and that's what you want. But you're paying significantly more in interest to keep it. Because the interest has gone up. That's what you want. That's how you want it to go.

Is that what we're after? Yeah, and then you want to sort of have problem after problem after problem, and you want it to still be going three years later. Fire the builders halfway through. Yeah, what you want to do is you want to switch builders halfway through and switch banks halfway through. I think that's a good thing as well, who you get your mortgage with. It's such a breeze.

And what you'll find is it really has made you stronger as a partner and a couple. Anyway, today's the final day. Well, not, you know, like there's stuff to do, but the final council sign, so I've been working outside, and it is hot in Auckland at the moment. So I don't have like the right gear. I don't have shorts ready for summer or anything.

All my crap's just around. I'm going to go buy some jorts. Are you going jorts? You're going to go jorts? I'm going to go jorts again. You're going to go jorts again? Can I say something? I think you're ready.

I don't think jorts are, jorts are, they're big jorts. No, not jorts. Not like he's thinking. No. Big jean're ready. I don't think jorts are big jorts. No, not jorts. Not like he's thinking. No. Big jean shorts are three quarters. You need some car hearts. Like sort of a baggy capri. But not girlies. What do you suggest for

Vaughan for summer shorts? Like the ones that Shannon is wearing right now? We're not going like a slim fit. We're at mid-thigh. He doesn't wear those. He doesn't do no. He wears a pair of skinny jeans cut off just above the knee that was my first pair of shorts skinny jeans that went so i cut them off with the knee like the ones with the ribbed knees you know those crazy they're not eat hardy

jeans i think he needs a nice pair of like like a nice fabric cotton short. Seriously though, why did they rib jeans? God, no one knew. Nobody thought it was triple strength in the knee, right? Yeah, they were like motorcycle knees, but you're like, I'm not riding a bike. Right. I'm in a Mazda. Okay. Anyway, so yesterday, yeah, I don't have the right shorts.

So what I did was, I just wore outside. I thought I was just going to be outside, like a nice loose T-shirt and my chub rub shorts, which are basically like a pair of short pantyhose that stop your thighs from rubbing. I always wear them under my dress or my skirt. They're great. But they are just a very thin fabric, like a pantyhose. So I was rocking around the house.

So they're not a pair of undies? Basically, like a big pair of undies. Right. Like a pantyhose. Yeah. So I was rocking around the house. So they're not a pair of undies? Basically, like a big pair of undies. Right. They go up nice and high and down mid-thigh. Right. So I just had those on

nice and cool, I thought, thin, I'm covered, you know, in my own backyard, totally fine. And I was comfortable.

And then I forgot that I was wearing them when I went to the dairy, to the liquor store, then drove all the way into the big Westgate, went to the chemist warehouse, went to the warehouse stationery, went to the tank salad and then came back home. And then I like realised that I had been out

for maybe just over an hour. And basically undressed. Completely see through. You would have seen the shack. You would have seen my cheeks through these shorts. And no one said it worked. This isn't the first time you've done it. Why are you not learning from your own ass exposing mistakes?

Because last time I was just at my house doing it. I was just at my house and someone came into the house and I was like, well, I'm, you know, just wearing these. That I paraded. Like imagine. Strutted around. and someone came into the house and I was like, well, I'm, you know, just wearing these. I paraded. Like, imagine strutted around. Seeing a beer tush through sort of a

light mesh. Like the baboons at the zoo. Yeah. And they turn around and you see their big pink bums. Yeah, and no one said anything. What are they supposed to say? Excuse me, miss,

I can see your ass. Yeah. Including cheek and hole. Excuse me, miss, you forgot to put shorts on. No one's... Mum, why is that woman not wearing any pants? I genuinely think if I saw a woman out in my situation,

I would know in my soul she has forgotten those are not real shorts or she's forgotten the top garment that's supposed to go on top. And I would say to her, oh my gosh, hon, just a heads up, you can see through your little shorts. Would you have gone to Kmart or something and got some shorts if someone had said something? Yeah, probably. Or I would have like run to my car and just left.

Yeah. Anyway, if you saw me out about in West Auckland yesterday with my whole tuchus on display, please know it wasn't intentional. Apologise. That wasn't a fashion move. Well, make sure that you wear pants for your council inspection. Otherwise you'll fail for like...

Or no pants. Skimpy little top. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. How does it work? I don't know how it works. But then what if you get a gay council inspector?

Aaron better put on the pants. And then I'll be like, meet me in the wardrobe. You put these on. And then, no, put on the... Put on the pants. Put on the pants. Yeah, yeah. Put on the pants. I'll put on the... Put on the past... Put on the G-string. Put on the past pants. Yeah, yeah. Put on the past pants.

I'll put on my Troye Sivan harness on him. It'll be great. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley. Spotify Rap Day, a little bit later than usual, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, people have been... Carl and the producer's been absolutely steaming for it for about a week.

When does it normally come out? It was... It's normally yesterday, last week. Do you think they were waiting for all of the... Yesterday, last week. Do you think they were waiting for all of the artists around the world to film those hostage-like videos to thank their fans? Hi, thanks so much for being

in the top percent of listeners. Yeah, wow. I really appreciate your support and all the money I'm getting from Spotify. I think that they probably just wanted to like amp it up a bit more because they were posting a lot, teasing it. They don't usually do that. Yeah.

I didn't even recognise the artist that came on to thank me for listening to so much of her music. Because she's not in drag? Because she was just like, it looked like she just maybe had a shower. Yeah, yeah. Or just woken maybe had a shower. Yeah, yeah. Or just woken up from a nap. Chapel Roan. Chapel Roan is your number one.

Yeah, across the board. Across the board. My top song was Red Wine Supernova by Chapel Roan. I'm in the top 0.1% of listeners globally. Was that your number one song as well? Yeah. I used to call her. Yeah, twinsies.

Look what you guys are twinsies. Also, you're cheating on Taylor Swift. No, so do you know what's funny? My top artist is Taylor, but she's not in my top five songs. Yeah. What about Taylor? Also, you're cheating on Taylor Swift. No. So do you know what's funny? My top artist is Taylor, but she's not in my top five songs. Because you probably listen to a more even spread with your thrash chapel. Yeah, that's the thing, right? She has so many songs that there's not one that's constantly on repeat.

They're all constantly on repeat. It's quite confronting when you get the total minutes you've listened and you're like, that's how I'm making myself so much deafer I listen to 44 days of podcasts like a month and a half of podcasts like I said I hope they don't do a Quinn

or Audible wrapped because I haven't listened to a lot of podcasts this year but mine was Bogan it was Metallica and system of the down but you i'm just pleased that they have filtered out brown noise yeah because i've had when they've done the dj thing before they it was mixing all my favorite songs or something and it was it just kept brown noise kept coming on my sleep sound So they've obviously excluded brown noise or white noise. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because that would be mine. I listen to it

every single night. Yeah. Yeah. But do you think Spotify thinks you're like 23 born and you're a white female? 100%.

Well, October was my pink Pilates princess struck pop month. Yeah. They're like, hey queen, keep it up at the gym queen. My top five artists,

I can't explain Eminem at five. I listened to that album once and it was because George Burt was like, you've got to listen to the album, start to eat. It was a good album. But like we were saying, yeah, I listen at the gym to like a gym playlist

and that's the only time I listen. And it's like mixed, super mixed and kind of random. Yeah. And then Charlie XCX, The Last Dinner Party, Sabrina Carpenter and Chapel Row were my top four. You are a white girl. You are a 25 yearyear-old white girl. The whitest of white girls.

I am a white old bogan man. Well, congratulations to you, podcast listeners. You've reached the end. So I would assume if you've listened all this way through, you're either asleep, in which case, wake up! Or you enjoyed it. So drop us a review and tell your friends. That's how podcasts work. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley.
