For a few years in the 1970s, the Mr. Asia syndicate made millions.
Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of plague.
Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down.
Clark would have threatened him. Go and kill him. If you don't, I'm going to kill you and your wife and your son.

Good morning.
Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Kind of like a mini Friday.
Fake Friday.
Friday Junior.
Friday Junior.
Yes.
With Waitangi tomorrow, a day off for most of us.
On the show today, Vaughan, you've got the top six soon.
Yeah, Briscoes Have just Let everybody know
It's been a tough year
For Briscoes
Well I'm going tomorrow
To pledge my support
I love a sale
Thursday
Thursday they always sail
That's when the sales
Kick off
Yeah
On a Thursday
I've got the top six signs
It has been a tough year
For Briscoes
Coming up in the top six
Hmm
Sell a little pole
Before seven
Are you social media-ing
Less
Or trying Are you trying To are you social media-ing less? We're trying.
Are you trying to get off social media less?
No.
No?
About the same for you?
Love Instagram.
And there I shall remain.
You're addicted.
I love Instagram so much.
You had a good thick vein of content yesterday.
It was almost like work was getting in the way.
I almost sort of thought maybe I'll pop off, you know,
I'll go home because I've really had a
deep vein of good content.
Next, so it's finally
happened. You're taking
off. I'm taking off. I'm
going on a medical trip.
Dipping a toe into the world of medical tourism.
You've always said Turkey. I've been
thinking about this for a long time and
the journey starts
next week.
Play ZM's F Flashborn and Hayley.
Well, you know, I've been
thinking about taking some trips to get some
medical work done.
I've been thinking about that for some time.
Yeah. Turkey's been on the
cards. Yep. Yep. I think that's
just a little nip, tuck. Nip, tuck,
pull, tighten, up, up.
Yep. A little bit of that.
And so that was sort of the, you know, and they call it,
what do they call it, medical tourism?
Yes.
People are going to Bangkok to get check worked out.
Who is it with the earlobes at the moment?
Everybody's like, oh, she's had a facelift.
Yeah.
She's got saggy butthole earlobes from wearing heavy earrings
and then when you get a facelift and it pulls everything else, you can see them.
So you need to kind of get that done at the same time, do you?
Yeah.
Like the face isn't aging, but the ears have.
And so the juxtaposition of the two is jarring people at the moment.
So, yeah, I have thought of, you know, the idea of medical tourism is not so obscure
to me.
I've been thinking about it for a while.
And Vaughan and I have said you are just so perfect and beautiful. I've been thinking about it for a while. And Vaughan and I have said
you are just so perfect and beautiful.
What are you thinking about?
What are you thinking about?
What on earth would you fix?
Yeah.
I'm just trying to get ahead of it.
You know what I mean?
Getting ahead of its inevitable demise.
But I got a call yesterday
for an appointment
that I've been wanting to have
for a long wait time
to see a specialist.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Like I've got a specialist appointment.
I was lucky to get in on your birthday, Vaughn,
on the 20th of Feb.
Oh, okay.
It was only last week.
We're not doing something.
What are you, what part are you getting looked at?
Shoulder.
Shoulder.
My shoulder.
Not the earlobes?
Wait, what?
Oh, okay.
Yeah, no, the shoulder.
If you wanted to.
While you're at the shoulder,
because right next to the shoulder,
the specialist might have some knowledge of the area.
What's wrong with my earlobes?
They touch your shoulder as well, right?
Yeah, yeah.
They're dragging on the shoulder.
My flesh tunnels are my 20s.
They've come back to haunt me.
Get your flesh tunnels nipped.
So I got a call yesterday,
and it was about I need to see a neurologist
in an Auckland where I am.
Because of your knee.
Because of my knee tingle.
Tingle, nerve, neuro, neurology.
I'm just trying to spell it out for this dipshit
that doesn't have a medical degree.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You never forget the uneducated.
No, you don't.
Yeah, I'm happy to translate to layman's terms.
Yeah.
So I got a call from a neurologist yesterday
and they're like, we can fit you in.
And then I was like, oh, oh, oh, when?
When?
Oh my God, I thought I was going to be waiting for like six months for this. And then I was like, oh, oh, oh, when? When? Oh my God,
I thought I was going to be waiting
for like six months for this.
Yeah.
And they said,
oh, just when are you free?
What?
Wait, a specialist doesn't say
when are you free?
Yeah, I don't know.
You're probably busy.
You've got Fridays.
Imagine if you'd been like now
and then they were like,
hello.
Hello.
Wait.
But what's the catch?
You have to go to Thailand or Turkey or Cancun or something.
It's a long journey and I am looking up local things I can do
to make the journey worth it while I'm there.
Okay.
It will take no time off of work.
I am going.
I am going for a medical appointment.
Medical tourism.
Medical tourism from Auckland to Hamilton.
Wow.
The subtropical paradise.
Hamilton neurology, not busy.
Have you thought about like tacking on a couple of days in a resort?
Well, I have thought about it.
For example.
Yeah.
I wanted to make the most of the trip.
Do you know what I mean?
But I was like, do you do it before the appointment where you're feeling more relaxed?
And then at the end you do the medical thing because I've got to recover from just the consult.
Yeah. The consult in which we'll talk to recover from just the consult. Yeah.
The consult in which we'll talk about things
and nothing will happen.
Yeah.
Or do I do the appointment and then on the way home
I could stop at like Hampton Downs.
Nice.
Do you know what I mean?
I could stop at the Speedway.
Maybe a spa in Mercer.
I could do a spa.
A day spa.
A spa and a bacon sandwich in Mercer.
Yeah.
An ice cream in Pocono.
Oh my God, I could pick up some bacon.
I mean, there's all sorts of things I could get on my trip.
It's not really medical.
So I planned out my trip because it's going to be a big day.
So I have to leave or finish work, say 10 o'clock.
It's an hour 26.
So I've got to think about travel, like comfort,
what I want to wear for the trip, what I want to wear for the travel.
Yeah.
Do I need a passport?
Yes.
I'll check that.
Yeah.
Oh, it's exciting.
Unless you're a sovereign citizen, then you don't need a passport
or a driver's license or a registration.
Yeah.
Or permission to build a house.
Or to pay tax.
Or anything you don't want.
Yeah, anything really.
Okay, how do I find out if I'm a sovereign citizen?
I think you just declare yourself one.
I am a sovereign citizen.
I spend a lot of time online going down some rabbit holes.
Well, I'm on TripAdvisor currently,
just looking up things for my journey from work to Hamilton.
Wow, this is your first step in medical tourism.
I'm really excited.
I think people are really going to see the difference.
Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley. From your local community Facebook page, really excited. I think people are really going to see the difference.
Hi there, news. Hi!
News yesterday. Hi, sweetie.
Hi, sweetie. Cheesy pleaser.
The Briscoes group said that it's been a tough year for the Briscoes
group. Well, it's been a tough year for everybody.
Everybody.
What did they say apart from, what was this thing on the news last night?
Apart from, was it COVID?
This is the worst recession we've had since 1991.
Oh, wow.
Now.
It's like real bad.
It's like real bad.
Guys, it's real bad.
I still can't get over there was a Reddit thread in New Zealand
being like, I applied for a retail job at Spotlight
and on Seek at the bottom it tells you
how many other people have applied for the job
and it was like, well, how much was on that one?
700?
Yeah.
There's people on there that are like,
I've applied for a job recently, it was 1,300.
Someone said I can be there.
That was 2,500 applied for this job that I applied for.
Crazy, eh?
It's tough.
It's wild.
So it's going to be a tough first half as the Briscoe group records near flat financial year sales.
Well, that's the thing.
If you don't have a job or you're saving, you're scraping, you're just getting by,
you're not replacing your fry pan, are you?
The fry pan must remain.
Yeah.
Just add more oil.
You know what I mean?
That non-stick surface.
That's gone.
It's gone.
Long gone.
More oil.
Spit out the Teflon that's coming off.
Yeah.
Don't swallow that.
Little Teflon flakes.
More oil.
Spit it out.
Top six signs Briscoe's doing it tough.
Number six on the list.
Tammy's about to lose her wig budget.
Tammy, no.
She is a national treasure.
She's a national treasure.
But if you don't know, that's definitely a wig.
Yeah, put her on a banknote.
You know?
Actually, it's time.
Who are we getting rid of? Go on. The Queen. Yeah, the Queen. that's definitely a wig. Yeah, put her on a banknote, you know? Actually, it's time. Who are we getting rid of?
Go on.
The Queen.
Yeah, the Queen.
She's our new Queen.
We'll remember her fondly,
but let's put our own Queen on the banknote.
Tammy.
Tammy.
Tammy.
Number five on the list of the top six zones.
Briscoe's doing it tough.
40% of the cutlery's been used before
and just licked clean and put back in the drawer, not washed.
Sometimes you can't tell.
I don't think that's the case.
You ever do that as a kid?
Like use a fork
and be like
I don't want to wash it.
Lick, wipe, wipe, wipe.
On a shirt, back in the drawer.
Do you ever like
use a teaspoon
like you might just make a coffee
or just put one teaspoon
or something in
and you're like
in the dishwasher.
It just seems so wasteful.
It's so wasteful.
I always leave a spoon out.
I'll use that again
next time I make a cup of coffee.
Or I won't.
But I'll grab five of them out of the sink at once.
Oh, yeah, totally.
I saw something on Instagram the other day that was like,
why do we all do this?
And it was someone using the bread knife and then just being like,
wipe on the shirt.
It's just bread.
It's just bread.
It's not weird.
It was like you're spooning dry stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
Tap, tap, tap.
Tap, tap, tap. Wipe, wipe, wipe. Bit of a wipe. Back in the drawer. Put it back. It's not bread. It's just bread. It's not weird. It's like you're spooning dry stuff. Yeah, yeah. Tap, tap, tap. Tap, tap, tap.
Wipe, wipe, wipe.
Bit of a wipe.
Back in the drawer.
Put it back.
It's not douchey.
Number four on the list of the top six signs Briscoe's doing it tough.
The flannels have mascara stains and tears on them.
Oh, no.
That's bleak.
Yeah, just.
Why have these all been cried into?
They're big stores, and all I'm saying is when they're empty,
it's so easy to sneak a work cry in.
Yeah.
Get into the flannel department.
Pop by the flannels.
Number three on the list of the top six signs Briscoe's is doing it tough.
They can only afford one sale a month from a here on out, guys.
Oh, no.
It'll go all month.
It'll literally go all month.
What a sale.
Yeah.
They love their sales.
Number two on the list of the top six signs Briscoe's doing it tough.
They can't afford the big sales voiceover guy anymore.
Oh, no.
They've had to hire me because I'm cheap.
Give it a go.
Come on.
30% off Manchester this weekend.
Oh, no.
Briscoe.
Jarring.
Quite jarring.
Far out.
I can see why that garage door company let you go.
Yeah, they did.
Garador.
I was reminded yesterday when I was programming
a new garage door remote and I saw Garador. I was like, oh, I used to be there. Used to be me. Used to be, they did. Garador. I was reminded yesterday when I was programming a new garage door remote and I saw Garador
I was like, oh, I used to be there.
Used to be me. Used to be the voiceover.
Number one on the list
of the top six signs briskos are doing
it tough. The slogan isn't briskos
you never buy better anymore.
It's briskos you guys never buy.
Briskos
you never buy.
Just a bit of reverse psychology to get people back in the store.
Yeah.
Anyway, thoughts and prayers.
Thoughts and prayers.
I'm going tomorrow to support.
What are you going to get?
I need a new food scales because Aaron has commandeered my food scales for bleach.
Why?
Bleach?
Weighing out bleach.
Why is he weighing bleach?
It's a spa pole.
Ah.
Weighing out spa chemicals.
Yeah, I've commandeered, but they can't be wiped down.
No, but he's putting bleach on it and sometimes I roll dog chicken on it.
I don't know if he's just raw dogging bleach into the spa.
Yeah, ginola.
You're talking chlorine or something.
Ginola.
I don't know if you just put ginola in your spa.
Yeah, half a tub of ginola each day.
Half a tub?
Yeah.
What's wrong with that?
I did wonder how you were getting whiter and he was getting lighter.
Yeah, edgy.
That is today's Subsox.
I know you were about to talk about the best days to book flights.
I am.
Let me tell you a terrible day to book flights.
What?
The 14th of February from Auckland to Dunedin
via Christchurch.
But I've got a boyfriend
in Dunedin
for Valentine's Day.
I need to go and see him.
I saw this on Reddit.
How much?
Before I get to that,
I want to put a personal tag on it.
I've got a mate who lives in Dunedin
and we don't get to see him very often
and it's cheaper for all of us
to chip in to fly him up.
We've done it before.
He flies up.
We pick him up from the airport. We have a lads weekend. We drop him back off at the in to fly him up. We've done it before. He flies up. We pick him up from the airport.
We have a lads weekend.
We drop him back off at the airport.
Pop him home.
It's easy for everybody.
It's the cheapest option.
But.
But.
That's when uni's going back, right?
Dude.
So, in the lead up.
Wednesday the 12th, $385 one way.
Which, even at that price, pretty expensive here in New Zealand.
But a week and a half out,
you'd expect that. Thursday the
13th, it jumps up to $427
one
way. I will remind you at
this stage, ladies and gents,
this is via Christchurch. This isn't
even a direct flight. Not even a direct flight!
Auckland to Christchurch, 45 minutes,
carry on three hours, 15
thereabouts.
Oh, my God.
Friday the 14th of February, Valentine's Day.
Galentine's Day.
Yeah.
To go from Auckland to Dunedin, one way, no bag.
No bag.
Via Christchurch.
How much?
One time you're stopping.
You could be in Christchurch for two hours, by the way.
It could be a two hour layover.
$717 one way,
no bag, not direct.
That is nuts. How can you even,
how is that even possible that that's
allowed? Like, how is that?
I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. Google Flights
that I love using. I love Google Flights.
Have you booked some flights?
Have you're booking flights
or you're wanting to go away this year,
set a little search, save a search,
and then if they drop down in price,
you'll get an alert in your email.
On the, what day was it again?
14th.
14th.
You can go from Auckland to Los Angeles
on the 14th of February
on Fiji Airways for $548.
So are you going to Dunedin or are you going to LA?
You're going to go to Disneyland.
It's crazy.
Even Air New Zealand direct to LA one way is $866.
A week and a half away.
It's terrible.
The students.
I don't.
And I guess that's it, right? It's the Friday. Everybody's going, the students. I don't, yeah, and I guess that's it, right?
I guess, but yeah, there'll be no seats.
It's the Friday.
Yeah, everybody's going down for uni.
People are getting back in to uni.
But I don't understand when they're like,
there's not that many seats.
Cool, just sell them and then they're gone.
Like, don't make them 800 bucks.
Well, another travel tip for those
that are wanting to book some flights,
maybe a mid-year holiday or you're doing your OE.
Yeah, Expedia, the travel website, they have gathered data through years and years of searching
and you can kind of look up everything on Expedia, can't you?
Yeah.
Hotels and everything.
So the cheapest day to book a flight is Sunday.
Those are the days that you would save 21% on domestic,
22% on international flights,
compared to if you booked the same flight on a Friday.
Not the day to travel,
but you're actually on your computer on that day.
Really?
Okay.
Sunday is the day.
Because I'm looking at the travel day here from your $717,
you can get the same flight on Sunday for under half that at $348.
Oh yeah, you're just not going on Friday.
No, but this isn't the travel day.
This is the day to book.
To book.
Right, to book.
The best day to travel.
You're going to see better deals on a Sunday.
You're going to see better deals on a Sunday.
The best day to actually travel, they say Friday,
which I always feel like in New Zealand domestically is not the case.
No, I would have thought Saturday is
because people like to go away for the weekend on Friday
and then come back on Sunday.
Yeah.
So they said travellers who leave on the last day of the working week,
leave on Friday, tend to save 14%
compared to those who departed on a Sunday,
which is the most expensive day to fly
because that's trying to get home, right?
Yeah, it is.
You're getting home for Monday work.
Yeah.
So if we're booking flights,
you should be doing it
at the end of the week.
You've got the whole week
to think about it.
If you're booking flights,
you've just got to book
months in advance now.
Also, like,
what is it going to cost
if you were to leave Auckland,
drive down the island,
get on the ferry
and then drive to Dunedin?
What does that all add up to?
Do you know what I mean?
Is it cheaper?
Well, the thing about
relying on that ferry
is that's the biggest gamble of them all.
Yeah, right.
You know, do you want to get to Dunedin or not?
Yeah.
Is the bigger question you've got to ask of that.
So you just have to pay the $7.50 or whatever it was.
Yeah, or go a day later, I think.
Go a day later.
Or earlier.

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 today is are you trying to spend less time on social media in 2025?
No, I'm going to crank it up.
You're going to crank it up?
Yeah, man.
You're going to get paid for the mental health even more.
Yeah.
I want to scroll for longer and later into the night.
Right.
Yeah.
Blast that blue light straight into your eyeballs.
60% of people said they are trying to spend less time on social media.
40% said no.
I think we all know how bad it is.
Oh, it's terrible for you. It's terrible for your mental health
and how you see yourself.
Also, this only said, are you trying?
Yeah, this is true.
And 40% of people were like, nope.
I've got no interest in trying.
I don't try.
They've just given in to the algorithm.
Rebecca said, yes, while I sit here flicking between Instagram and Facebook, doom scrolling.
Brain rotting.
Get out of it, Rebecca.
Bad habit.
Facebook, I think we can kind of turn our back on.
We keep it so that we can use it for login and things and chats.
Yeah.
Groups.
Yeah.
That's it.
Lou said, need scroll zombie.
She used the zombie emote.
Need scroll. Need scroll.
Need scroll.
Ben, reels bring me joy like nothing else.
It's my only hobby or interest.
Why would I stop?
Oh, Ben.
Oh, Ben.
Oh, Ben.
When you're better hobbies and interests, we can pass them to you.
We love reels.
We love reels and we love a laugh.
And it's a great source of comedy.
And we will often say when we're scrolling reels, man, the internet's done it again.
But we shouldn't say it's our only hobby or interest, I feel, Ben.
That's an unhealthy people.
Go play some lawn bowls.
Go outside and take your brother with you.
Yeah, take your brother with you.
No, take him with you.
Get out there.
Fiona said, no, I'm not coming back or even trying to.
My main content is dogs and puppies.
Happiness is a woofy.
Yeah.
Woofy.
I mean, if that makes you happy.
If it makes you happy.
Yeah.
Amy said, literally,
would delete it if schools and sports clubs
didn't use it as their main form of communication.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Serves a purpose.
Yeah.
Sally said, oh, I'm about to sneeze.
That's not what Sally said.
That's what I said.
I was like, why did Sally text in?
It's ridiculous that she needs to let us know every time she's about
to sneeze. Sally said,
in the United States, I deleted TikTok
during the short period it wasn't available. Now I can't
re-download it from the Apple store.
Oh, even though it's been unbanned?
Yeah. I've heard that's happened to a few people.
Hmm. Huh.
Interesting. Um, huh.
Sarah says, bah ha ha ha,
no, I'm due with a baby in May
and what else do you do
when you're feeding in the middle of the night
so you don't impulse shop?
Social.
Social media.
Socials.
Lisa said,
Yes, I waste so much time
and could be doing far better things with my life,
like living my own life,
instead of vicariously through others
using the app OneSec,
and it's working.
There's an app called OneSec.
O-N-E-Sec. NotSec. O-N-E-Sec.
Not the...
O-N-E-Sec.
Yeah.
App blocker focus.
OneSec is a focus app that tackles the problem
of unconscious social media use at its root.
It's designed to change your habits on a long-term basis.
So it's going to interrupt my social media scrolling.
Yes.
Why would I download that?
Yes, I tap, says Alicia, after opening this poll only 15 minutes after it was posted.
15 minutes after it was posted is not too bad.
It's when you're the first person to respond and you vote for it and it says 100% in your favour
and you're like, that's weird.
Yeah.
Jordan says, obviously not working if I'm here answering your silly little poll.
Okay, don't be angry at us.
That's also a good point, though.
People who are trying and succeeding in using social media less won't have voted in the poll.
Oh, yeah.
Because they're not on social media.
So the results won't be accurate.
No.
A statistician would tell us that it was a flawed way of looking into it.
And then we'd be like, shut up, nerd.
Yeah, and we'd be like, loser, four-eyed freak, and stuff like that.
Whoa.
Ooh, nerd, get out of here.
Get a girlfriend, you virgin, and stuff like that.
Thanks.
Just classic.
Classic ribbing.
Do you know what I mean?
Light-hearted bastard.
All right, pizza face, come on.
That kind of stuff.
She's really shooting from the head.
Just going old school.
Yeah.
Going old school on it.
Loser.
Really reminding them what life is like.
Yeah.
That silly little poem.
Here's a great idea.
We're sick of just sitting around when we're hanging out.
You know, go over to each other's houses.
What are we doing?
Having drinks and chatting and then we go home and that's it.
What's wrong with that?
Boring.
Okay. We need things to do. And I what's wrong with that? Boring. Okay.
We need things to do. And I'm not,
oh, I did get two new board games.
Oh, which ones? Dixit.
D-I-X-I-T. Yeah.
Which is like these art cards and
Art cards? Yeah, and
in crypto. You can't just say
art cards and assume we're going to work out how the game
works. Yeah, I know. There's art cards.
So everyone gets little cards
and they've got little bits of artwork on them
and then you have to
use terms to describe it.
So you may say
a wintry breath.
And then everyone goes to their deck
and they pick one from their card
that they think is the most like that
embodies a wintry breath.
And you all put it out.
And then you have to choose which one you think is the actual one.
So it's Cards Against Humanity for Art Wanks.
No, but it's fun.
You'll like it.
I think I'd like that.
You'd like that.
And then Encrypto is the other one, which is...
Right.
Yeah, anyway.
But that is not what is taking the internet by storm.
We're done with that.
Lame, lame, lame.
If I said to you, come over and play some board games, you guys would be like, no.
But what if I said to you, guys, come over.

Shannon's like, yes.
Yes, Shannon.

Let's go. What are we, like, 10, drinks. You walk to the back of my house. There's a little stage. Yes. Let's go.
What are we, like, 10 with our cousins at Christmas
trying to make a show for the parents that don't want to see?
We never did shows with our cousins.
We always did it with the neighbours.
Oh, not cousins, friends.
Yeah, but yeah.
A little stage.
I've set up a little stage.
Would you give me some notice so I can get my costume ready
is my only question.
There'll be notice.
What are you doing at the talent show?
Okay, let's all go around and say what we're doing.
Okay, so I say to you guys,
you're going to come over to my house.
It's the five of us.
I'm not coming.

You have to come.
No, I'm not.
You have to come.

You have to.
You have to.
Okay, it's the five of us.
We're hanging out.
I know what your talent is.
You get five minutes.
You'll love it.
Okay, what am I doing for five minutes at the talent show?
You plug your laptop into a TV and you show us how efficient you are
at organising your next trip.
Oh, I like that.
She goes, all right, everybody, I need a holiday destination.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll show you how I can plan a trip.
What's my budget?
That's not a talent show.
Dude, this is your number one talent.
Okay, $5,000.
Or someone says, you could be like, okay, my talent is going to be showing you
how you can reduce your spending to nearly zero over the course of a month.
Whose bank account am I opening?
How not?
You would 100% be like, and then somehow this talent show,
we'll just sit there and you work out how someone can say it.
That's not entertaining.
No, it doesn't have to be Because you could roast them
They'd be roasting them
Like what did you spend that
And then there's a roast
Okay perfect
That's your talent
Planning a trip
And then you just get suggestions
From the audience
For budget
Yeah
Destination
And longevity
And then you just go
Watch me

Magic.
He's magicked himself out of there.
Okay, please welcome to the stage, Carwin Jones.
I'm going to tap dance.
Okay, fantastic.
Wait, wait.
Can you tap dance?
Kind of.
What do we got on? We're doing Chicago?
Is this something you did in childhood?
Yeah, it could be from childhood.
Yeah, but also...
Tap dancing.
I never promised you it was good.
Oh, yeah, true.
Yeah, this is true.
Okay, and please welcome to the show...
Also, I'd just love to see you ruin Hayley's polished floor in her renovations.
That's what I was thinking.
Yeah.
No, I've set up a site-specific stage for this.
Okay, right, okay.
She will be walking around the driveway to get to the stage.
Okay, please welcome to the show, Shannon Trim.
Woo!
I'm going to perform an interpretive dance
about some of my favourite conspiracy theories.
Oh my God.
Starting off with JonBenet to Katy Perry's Peacock.
Wow.
Wow.
This is great.
I mean, I'm emceeing,
but obviously I'll be playing music throughout.
Yeah, you'll be doing bits of the film, of course.
Music throughout, bits of comedy.
I mean, in a small marching routine.
If you organise that you'd get up first to warm the crowd up.
Yeah, I'd do a bit of...
And then you'd be like, who's going next?
And if someone didn't immediately be like, I'll go next,
you'd be like, well, I'll just go again
while you guys decide who's next.
I'll pick from my bucket of talents.
And then I'll just keep going until someone works
up the courage. Oh, this is great. I can't wait.
When are we hosting? I'm free this weekend.
I am not doing this. I'm busy, busy.
Doing what? Planning a
trip. Busy. Do it on stage.
We want to see it. That's your talent.
Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley.
Play ZM's
Fletchbourne and Hayley. I wouldM's Fletchbourne and Hayley.
I would like to know from you, my humble, delicious, beautiful listener,
that what are you currently gatekeeping?
Now, gatekeeping, I've just looked up the definition of it, like, strictly.
The act of controlling access to information or resources.
So you're going, like, I know something,
and I'm not going to tell you what it is.
And we use it now to be like, if you're
gatekeeping something, like a little something that you want
everyone to know, you've got to give me
the keys to the gate. And I was thinking
this yesterday because
girls are really good at this.
You may remember, I was like, I found the
best bra and I was gatekeeping that
and then I told all of our listeners this bra
and they bought it all. But yesterday
do you know what? I just realised it's not doing it for me
anymore. So actually everyone who I made
go out and buy that bra. You might be like
it's not really actually that good.
Wait, have you experienced
a change in the chest?
A chest change? I don't think there's a chest change
I mean they are. Like a C change. They're going
lower and lower every day for sure
and I think maybe it's time for a bit more support.
And I was like, who's gatekeeping the bras that we're buying now?
Like, surely the girls are all there being like,
these are the bras.
And I hit up my best friend.
I thought it was by my, I don't know why I would get targeted
advertising for skims.
But I'm getting it.
Well, you keep women in every colour posing in their underwear? You keep
clicking on all those women, Vaughan. That's why they keep
coming back up. I thought she was talking to me.
She was talking and I couldn't hear because it was
on mute by default. I thought she was talking
to me. So I clicked on it. I can't miss an opportunity.
She might have been telling me something
very informative.
Well, because then I was talking to my best friend
about this. I was like, what bra? She's like, dude, I've been
gatekeeping this bra for eight. Just let me open your world.
And she sent me a link to, oh, my God, this is so terrible.
I've talked about it.
Now I can't remember what it is.
I'll find the link and I won't gatekeep.
I'll share with everyone.
And then she was like, I need to find the best gym undies.
She was like, oh, try this.
And we're all out here trying this.
I said, mate, I've been gatekeeping these undies.
And I sent her the Ola undies.
They're just absolutely perfect. And I was like, we need to gatekeeping these undies and I sent her the Ola undies. They're just absolutely perfect.
And I was like, we need to be sharing these things.
So after they...
The car.
Yeah, like the cars.
Like Uber.
Instead of having mints and water, they have gym jeans.
They have undies.
Yeah, it's perfect.
It's like, Fletch, you with your lip balm.
You know, and everyone's like, what's the best lip balm?
I need to know the lip balm.
And you're like...
The best lip balm is no lip balm.
I don't want to let people know. Oh, shut up. Oh, whatever.? I need to know the lip balm. And you're like, I don't know. The best lip balm is not a lip balm.
I don't want to let people know.
Oh, shut up.
Oh, whatever.
You get addicted to it the more you use.
Yeah, your body becomes reliant on it.
Well, this is one I want.
We've got to help each other out.
Okay.
I want to know, what have you been gatekeeping?
Have you got like the best this?
You're like, I've got the best gym undies.
Like a product that you absolutely love.
A product you absolutely love that you're like,
the people must know.
That you feel maybe people don't know about enough.
Do you know what is always one?
When people go, you know, the world of skincare at the moment,
everyone's like, this is so amazing.
People are like, use Cetaphil.
It is the number one.
Maybe you've got a product that you're absolutely loving
and using at the moment and you're like,
the people must know.
That's what I want to know.
Okay, 0800DARLS at M.
Call us now. You can text through
9696. Mint. Mint.
It's meat,
but it's all minced up. That's not gatekeeping,
babe. No. What are you
currently gatekeeping? What is the best thing you're
using at the moment? We have to know.
Yeah, well, don't gatekeep. Share us.
Share with us. I do. I always
offer you a loz. Yeah, you do.
You do.
This is what we want to know at the moment.
Like, what is the, like, are you sitting on something right now that the people must know?
Whether it's a product that you use all the time.
Yeah.
Like, what I'm looking for was, like, what are the girls buying for their bras these days?
Surely we all know it.
I want to know it as well.
Lots of messages in for the gym undies
oh yeah
I mean I know you guys have your own
I just wear my shoes going on
yeah but we've got
tights and bits
and lips
you've got to get it just right
now someone said posy intimates
camel toe be gone is that the name of the undie or that's just their statement on it you've got to get it just right. Now, someone said Posey Intimates, Camel Toby gone.
Oh, okay.
Is that the name of the undie?
Or that's just their statement on it?
I don't think the name of the undie is Camel Toby gone.
It would be a great name for an undie, though.
It would really spell out.
It would be a great tagline, I think.
Yeah, Posey Intimates.
Are these the ones we were talking about the other day
that have the sort of cardboard insert to prevent,
oh, yeah, no, these look good.
There you go.
That's a good one.
Jiminey's very popular. Best Jumanji
for women are a New Zealand local brand called Squatties.
Squatties?
Squatties! Like Watties.
But Squatties. But Squatties.
Yeah, and they're made in a canning
factory in Hawke's Bay as well. Just like
Watties. Just like Watties.
Yeah, these look like great Jumanji's.
Black seamless panties
from Kmart. Now you know that word upsets Fletch. I'm sorry great gym undies. Black seamless panties from Kmart.
Now, you know that word upsets Fletch.
I'm sorry for saying panties.
Thank you.
He prefers pantaloons.
Pantaloons.
You know I prefer... Knickerbockers.
Yes, he likes to say his ladies in their knickerbockers.
Yes, yes.
Black seamless...
Gymnasium knickerbockers.
Knickerbockers from Kmart.
Square by the comfort and they don't go ugly after a few washes.
The seamless...
Yeah, but I mean, I guess it's individualised
because for me that's, I eat those alive, if you know what I mean.
Beg your pardon?
Yeah, maybe don't tell us that.
I'm just saying.
I never want to hear those words out of your mouth again
because if I ever hear the man in the safari was eaten alive by a lion,
I'm just going to be taking it back to this moment.
Hey, we've got the men coming through here.
Okay.
Step one underwear for men, life changing.
Step one.
Okay.
I love this because I feel like underwear is something
that once you get it right, here we are.
We're going to stay there for years.
I always buy the same undies.
Yeah, me too.
This is why we need to share these things.
We can't have people out there in 2025
wearing uncomfortable underwear, whether it's to the same undies. Yeah, me too. This is why we need to share these things. We can't have people out there in 2025 wearing uncomfortable underwear,
whether it's to the gym or elsewhere.
Step one underwear, bamboo.
Oh, okay, right.
Breathable.
We're talking there's no thrush.
Somebody sent a smoothie cup recommendation.
Okay.
Artful and sage, the long play cold cup.
Okay.
This would go well for my takeaway iced Americanos too.
Here's one I can definitely get behind.
This is, I feel like this is great.
Tubular mascara.
Now what you guys want.
What do you mean tubular?
The girls are nodding.
Right, tubular mascara.
I wear tubular mascara.
Maybe I've only done it for like a year.
Game changer.
What is it?
Oh yeah, it's the best thing ever.
It's the best thing. I can't go back. like a year. Game changer. What is it? Oh yeah, it's the best thing ever. It's the best thing.
I can't go back.
I can't go back either.
Basically, instead of removing it with makeup remover
and it kind of dissolves the product,
the product comes off as a tube.
So you just use water and you go like this with your eyelashes
and it all comes off in your hand.
And it comes off in tubes.
So it doesn't come off on your eyelashes?
No.
No, it tubes off.
It's kind of preventing pulling off your eyelashes
because waterproof mascara
or the likes,
usually if you'd get it,
it's so stuck on.
Tubular mascara.
The best one,
the cheapest and best one
in my opinion
is the Emco Beauty one.
I definitely recommend that
and that's at Chemist Warehouse.
Tubular mascara.
Oh, she's got a seamless,
she's on fire there,
ladies and gentlemen.
Ring the bell,
that's the show's sponsor
right there.
Seamless creamy for the show's sponsor. That's actually gorgeous, Shannon. Well done. Bring the bell. That's the show's sponsor right there. Seamless baby for the show's sponsor.
That's actually gorgeous, Shannon.
Well done.
Tubular mascara.
Other things people are gatekeeping?
The woman's shavers with the soapy head.
That's called.
What?
Oh, I used to use this.
It's called ignition, ignite.
What's it called?
We don't play our telly anymore.
We don't. It's like anymore The women's shavers with the soap We don't
It's like got a soap ring around the razor
Ignition
Something like that
I just searched ignition
Best perfect shaver for bald men
You're welcome Fletch and V-Doc
Really?
We argue a lot about our best razors to shave
Because I'm a dollar shave club guy
That's so sharp though
when you get a new one out.
Crikey, you've got to be careful.
Excuse me, two men are talking.
Don't want to be interrupted by a woman.
That is actually really classic behaviour
from a woman towards me.
It is, yeah, it is.
These are the ones, you know,
they've got a big soap ring around them.
Those are women's.
Please don't, women's plain shaving.
You will have to pay more.
It's going to shock you
when you come to buy
a woman's razor.
This is what blows
my mind as well.
I know.
They'll be exactly
the same except
one's pink
and it's $5 more.
I know.
It's not.
Ladies,
buy these huckery grey ones
because you're just
paying for a colour there.
But we like them pink.
I know you like them pink.
But that's great for the men
because then you're not
doing the leather
and the soap.
No,
you don't do the leather and the stuff. What is that stuff made out of?
Because I like a...
He dries out.
Soap.
No, he dries out.
I'm not shaving with soap.
No, it's not soap.
It's like a...
You said it was soap.
Make up your mind, woman.
Indecisive.
Interrupting, indecisive, and woman's planning.
This is actually classic female behaviour.
I use a sensitive shave foam.
A shave cream.
Do you use a foam?
A cream.
You don't want it to lather up.
It dries out the hair.
What do you mean a shave cream?
Are you gatekeeping that people are using shave foam?
You've been gatekeeping.
What do you use?
Asano?
Asano cream.
Not the gel.
Not the gel because it lathers up too much.
There's a cream.
The cream.
It's amazing.
I've been using it for years.
And it doesn't lather up.
And if you're a dude that shaves your hair,
when it lathers, it dries out the dome.
Do you moisturise the dome?
Always.
Straight after shaving.
Okay.
Big moisturiser, the old crime dome.
More Texan.
Someone wants to know the mascara, Emco Beauty from Chemist's Warehouse.
My Chemical Romance.
My Chemical Romance.
You can get that from My Chemical Romance.
Oh my god,
someone just said the lady version of
Mansplain. She-laborate.
She-laborate! Yes!
That's so good.
LSKD gym clothes, people are saying you'll
never go back.
Are they a New Zealand brand?
I see so many people wearing those.
Yeah, I wear it all the time.
I don't look at what anybody's wearing at the gym.
I'm not looking at brands.
Neither.
I'm not looking at brands.
I keep my eyes on my own gains, you know.
Your eye level is well above the brand name.
Kind of mid-chest.
No, no.
Or below the brand name because often the women's is on the waistband.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You're above or below?
No, I'm not.
Wow.
What are you looking at? Why are you looking, Kurt? I turn my glasses off at the gym so is on the waistband. I don't know what you're talking about. You're above or below? No, I'm not. Wow. What are you looking at?
Why are you looking, Per?
I took my glasses off at the gym so I can't see anything.
This is dangerous.
And I just walk into a thing,
but at least I can't be accused of perving.
Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley.
Well, if you're a long, medium,
or even short-term listener on the show,
you may have noticed we've got a little bit
of a hot mess on our hands
in the form of producer Shannon.
A little bit.
Who surprises us daily.
Yeah.
What did she say before the show?
Now, it wasn't what we're about to talk about.
She said something else and we were all just like,
we did that thing where it would be like if your mum said something
so insane that you don't even roast your mum,
you're just kind of like, huh, and move on to the next bit.
Yeah. You go, we can't even begin.
We don't have time for this right now.
I don't know, this seems like something we need to discuss in detail
when we've all got a bit more time.
So I can't even remember what that was, but it must have been bad.
In fact, it was so traumatic,
I've presumed to have blocked it from my short-term memory development.
I didn't know you guys did that.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Constantly. So you guys did that. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, constantly.
So you should take notes.
It wasn't one of her conspiracy things, was it?
Do you want to hear about those?
No.
No.
We did do that that time.
We did it.
Katy Perry is JonBenet.
JonBenet is Katy Perry.
We were like, oh, okay, mum.
And we moved on.
Yeah.
Then she told us yesterday, well Well I'll just let her tell you
What did you do yesterday
Because you didn't know
How to do something
I went on TikTok
To learn how to boil an egg
And well I'll just put a pin
In that right there
You boil it
Can I
I thought you googled
You went straight to TikTok
Instead of googling
Yeah I wanted a video
Okay right
Well so hear me out
Okay
Every day I have eggs.
I know how to cook eggs.
I can do like three ways of doing it.
Okay, what are the ways?
Fried.
Yep.
Fried over.
Wait, wait, wait.
That's one way.
That's one way.
That's one.
Scrambled.
Okay.
How often are you eating fried eggs?
Every day.
Fried eggs are a-
I get up at 3.30.
They're the easiest way.
Crack it in a pan.
I have some cherry tomatoes. Wait, so you can't poach
an egg? No. Poached wasn't on that list.
No, I don't know how to do that. And you don't know how to hard boil
an egg? Poaching is the hardest. Well, I know how
to now. Yeah, because
you TikTok'd. Yeah, because I wanted a
video because I know that
you can do it for different amounts of times to get a
different hardness and I wanted to
see what I wanted. That's called cooking.
So the more you do it, the more the food changes.
I wanted to know,
I wanted it like a little bit hard, but not grey.
Wait till she finds out about meat.
I know.
I do the air fryer.
Remember 20 minutes chicken breast, done.
That's right.
That's right.
Seems a long time.
Seems a long time.
So I went on TikTok and I watched the first video
that popped up. And that
video was titled? How to boil
an egg. Who is sharing this?
And how many views did it have?
Oh, have a look. But it'll be millions.
And I can imagine it's full of Gen Z's being like, does water
need to be in the pot? Well, because I wanted to know
if I was meant to put salt in it or something.
And she said yes. So I did that.
How to boil an egg.
I'll just find the video I watched.
Hold on, pause just a moment.
Have you ever put salt in?
When you're boiling an egg,
it doesn't matter
because it's got the skin.
No, because doesn't it stop the shell from cracking?
Salt?
Salt water does.
That's what I've thought.
That's why I've always put salt in with.
Oh, I don't.
The trick to doing that
is before you boil the egg,
you tap the...
Huh?
The pinpoint.
What are you putting a pinpoint on it for?
The butthole of the egg.
Oh, I didn't do that.
No, that's when you want to blow the egg out
and keep the egg shell intact to paint it for Easter.
No, you do a little pinprick.
I don't do this, but you do.
You put a little pinprick and then you boil it
and then you can peel it easy.
I give it a series of
soft taps on the bottom.
You'll hear a ping noise
and then you can boil it and it'll peel easy.
The video I watched had 50,000 likes.
So 50,000 other people agreed with
me because I had to like it because I had to watch it a few times
over. Right.
So I did it, but she recommended
I put the egg in ice water
afterwards and I don't have a freezer, so I just put it in water,
and then I had to wait 20 minutes for it to cool down.
This is a half an hour egg extravaganza.
Was that real hard?
No, I did good.
Was it runny inside?
I wanted like a little bit of like a bite, but not, yeah.
But so I did it.
Man, they take a while to peel.
They do.
This was like such an extravaganza.
When I can do.
So this was your first foray into boiled eggs.
Yes.
I never had them as a kid.
I like scrambled, fried or fried over.
Right.
The three main ways of cooking an egg.
So will this be the last time you boil an egg?
You're just going to fry it next time?
No, so I'm going to stick to two fried in the morning and then two in the afternoon.
And I realise you can just put them in the fridge.
She told me.
They're cheap. They are cheap.
There's a good cheap source of protein.
Watch the cholesterol.
I'll just watch the cholesterol.
What's it like in there, Karwin?
Are you okay?
Do you need to go to HR?
Look, with her and Georgia combined.
There's a lot of high protein girlies
I will say there's a message here
And this could help you with your
It's a cheap form of protein
We need to get Shannon a bit more money
Someone said I would pay good money
To watch this girl poach an egg
Yeah, this needs to be
This is an only fans category
On our socials
Oh no, I was going to say
She needs to make money from it
Well I know when you poach an egg,
there's vinegar,
and I don't own vinegar.
No, you don't have to put vinegar.
Oh, okay.
It helps,
but it also taints the taste.
Yeah, no, I've never dabbled.
Again, you know how chefs
have a hundred folds in their hat?
I've got three.
Yeah.
And two of them are the same age.
Fried and scrambled.
Yeah.
All right, well, good luck.
Good luck. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayramble. Alright, well good luck. Good luck.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.

We talked about
this on the podcast, which you
can find on iHeartRadio or Review
Podcast.
And I was getting
a scan of my leg ongoing.
Ongoing. I know people are deeply invested in this leg. And they found a and I was getting a scan of my leg ongoing, ongoing.
I know people are deeply invested in this leg,
and they found a...
I've been shifted to team amputation.
Yeah.
Get rid of it.
Yeah, get it gone.
Your tingly leg.
Tingly leg.
We scanned, x-rayed, MRI'd everything,
and during an MRI, they found a cyst,
which was inside Miguel.
Inside the walls of Miguel.
Thank you for putting it that way.
Thanks.
Because, you know, people are reading.
It sounds like you're saying Miguel,
as in like the Latino name of Michael, Miguel.
No, my Fandango.
Oh, your Clem Fandango.
My Clem Fandango.
Okay.
Which is horrible.
That's not the news anybody wants.
No.
We've found something growing.
We've found something.
Yeah, totally.
So then you've got to go and get it checked out,
and it's absolutely fine.
It's called a Bartholin cyst,
which is very, very common in women.
Bartholin.
Bartholin.
Like a Bartholomew.
No, yeah, right, Bartholomew.
Yeah, I guess so.
Bartholin.
Bartholin cyst.
Anyway, they're fine.
And mine is
humorously large.
Golf ball sized. Okay.
And didn't realise until
which I've talked about in the
podcast, she got me
to feel it myself.
It's the human equivalent of when your dog
has blocked anal glands.
And they need to drain those.
Yeah, but don't DIY that.
Do you know what I mean?
And they say, no, don't DIY the bath all on you, sis.
Don't do that.
No, no, no.
So I've got to have a surgery.
I'm having a surgery soon.
And you will miss me on the 25th of February to get it removed.
Anyway, so yesterday when I was...
I've got a pimple right in my bum hole.
I found it this morning in the shower.
Come with.
Should I also take the 25th of February?
Me on my back, you on your tummy.
Come on, like a couple's message!
We're here for the
couple's draining. We're here for the couple's draining,
please. Why do you have a pimple there?
I think it's because I've talked before,
I vaseline quite extensively because
I chafe when I run.
You've got to get something better than vaseline.
Nah, it's all good, bro.
No, it's obviously not. It's clogging up some pores.
But it just got a little bit clogged.
Okay, if this is your donut, how close to the donut is it?
A finger's width apart.
Because, you know, I get pimples on my butt, on the cheeks.
No, this is in there.
I've had it before.
It's also sometimes without the Vaseline,
just a bit of rub in there with the exercise.
Right.
It happens.
Small price to pay.
Again, it's just not worth exercising sometimes, is it?
It's not, eh?
No.
It's not.
No.
Now, this is the thing with these Bartholomew cysts,
is you can get them from a number of things.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Undies too tight or summer.
I mean, it's my version of thrush, you know, for summers.
And it was like, we'll give you this instead.
So I was reading this article about this woman who apparently she equates her Bartholomew cysts
that she got to sleeping in her underwear.
Just a little warning for those that wear it.
You know, not enough.
Let the old girl breathe.
Ventilation.
Not enough ventilation.
She got one and it became septic.
It got so, it got left for so long
that they can burst on their own or become infected. And she, it got septic. It got so, it got left for so long that they can burst on their own
or become infected
and she,
it got septic.
You know,
Nick,
that's really dangerous.
Yeah.
And it just reminded me
how Fletch was like,
why do,
you know,
how necessary is the surgery
and is it possible
you could delay it
until at the Easter holidays?
I said,
why don't you just do it
on like a Friday?
On a holiday?
On a weekend.
Do they not do operations on a weekend? They only do the operations on a Tuesday and then you said, why don't you just do it on a Friday? On a holiday. On a weekend. Do they not do operations on a weekend?
No, because then I said to you, they only do the operations on a Tuesday,
and then you said, well, maybe for a holiday.
So the way these get infected, this poor girl who became sick is leaving them for too long.
So you waiting until the Easter holidays isn't an option.
It just wouldn't do.
I must go.
In a couple of weeks.
You've got 20 days.
I know.
Hopefully I survive.
I just really highlighted for me. But they only do it on 20 days. I know. Hopefully I survive. I just really,
just really highlighted for me.
But they only do it on a Tuesday.
Only do it on a Tuesday.
I've just been through the whole year.
I can't see any public holidays
on a Tuesday.
So you've got to re-air, right?
I've got to take the day off.
Yeah.
I'm so sorry
that that's inconveniencing you.
My golf ball,
Bartholomew's cyst.
That could lead to sepsis.
Could lead to sepsis,
which is very dangerous
inside the human body.
Right.
But luckily,
I'm getting it sorted
on a Tuesday.
Am I the only one on the show
that doesn't require
some sort of day off
for a medical procedure?
Because you're likely
they're going to have to need
some sort of
shoulder reconstruction surgery.
Well, maybe, yeah.
We'll find out.
Do they do that
on a Friday after the show?
Yeah, I'll get that done
on a Friday every Saturday.
I think you should have to do it over Easter.
That's all I'm going to say.
Get it done Thursday, 12 o'clock.
Take good Friday.
Maybe you can't pop to Europe in the middle of the year.
Maybe you've got to pop to surgery and recover so you can come back.
It's a good idea, actually.
I think that's only right.
For all of us who haven't been to Europe.
Yeah, I think that's only fair.
It's just fair.
We've had two episodes so far of Married at First Sight Australia on three. For those of us who haven't been to Europe. Yeah, I think that's only fair. It's just fair. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
We've had two episodes so far of Married at First Sight Australia,
on three, and three now.
It's your favourite reality show, hands down. It's my number one.
My number one.
More than Love Island, more than any of The Bachelors.
It's just, I don't know.
It's mine too.
Yeah.
That didn't sound so good.
Can I just give you a little-
Trying to relate to the demographic.
Boy, I can't get enough of these shows.
Can I just give you a little note from someone with an acting degree?
Okay.
Your tone's just completely flat.
Okay.
And that's making me not really believe you as a character.
So if you go more like, mine too.
Mine too.
Okay, but back, less, less, less.
Mine too.
What are you doing
If you're here
Why don't you show Vaughn
Like what's a show
You can't stand
Okay yeah
Tell me
Tell me
Your favourite show
Like one of those
Gold Rush shows
Yeah yeah
And can you
You tell me Vaughn
That a Gold Rush show
Is your favourite
I love Gold Rush
But you're still
Doing bad acting
No just do
A genuine one
Yeah
What's your favourite show
Um
I started watching Um That show I can't remember The name of it just do a genuine one. What's your favourite show?
I started watching that show,
I can't remember the name of it, with
Billy Bob. No, I'll finish that.
Landman, that was really, really good.
I love that show, it's my favourite.
That was really good.
She hasn't even seen it.
It was easy, it was not performed, it didn't look like it was rehearsed.
Married at First Sight is my
favourite dating reality show. Boy,'t look like it was rehearsed. Oh, okay. Married at First Sight is my favourite dating reality show.
Boy, man, me too, Hayley.
It was better.
And everybody listening.
He's got some work to do.
It was better.
So lots of drama already.
Last night's episode has, and this has been all actually all through the years.
Is he a Nazi?
Not a Nazi.
There's a guy on there.
Wow, TBC.
Someone messaged me and they were like,
the guy that was described
as the guy that wants the trad wife
who lives the warrior lifestyle.
It's got all the hallmarks of someone
who's just going to pop up.
He's going to have been wearing a swastika around bed.
Yeah, I feel like there's a deep, dark internet history to him.
But anyway, I'm not talking about him.
I'm talking about Tim, who's a teacher.
And I want to bring the girlies in
because I know that they've been watching it as well.
Shannon cried.
Shannon cried.
Did you cry at this? Yeah, I cried both episodes, but I just love the idea girlies in because I know that they've been watching it as well. Shannon cried. Shannon cried. Did you cry at this?
Yeah, I cried both episodes.
But I just love the idea of love in weddings.
And so when the couples...
This is not love, by the way.
No, it is.
It's love at first sight.
And so it's like as they're describing what they need in a partner
and they cut between the two confessionals of these people about to meet
and she's walking down the aisle and I just want her to be loved so much.
I want her to be loved.
He says he's such a genuine guy.
I start crying.
I know.
So this guy, his name's Tim,
and he apparently, I read the news before I saw the episode,
which was him saying he's not doing any interviews.
He's basically turned his back on the show.
He wants nothing to do with it.
He is worried for his professional career.
So I'm going like, what is happening?
What has he said?
Basically, the gist is that Tim came out nice guy,
really nice guy.
And I don't really have a type.
You know, I don't really have looks.
You know, looks are not important to me.
It's about the soul.
Enter Katie, who is a huge personality
and she's a curvy girl.
Suddenly, Tim's not such a nice guy.
Well, what did he say?
I just usually date sort of small, petite, blonde women.
But then they said to him, so, okay, what is your type then?
And he goes, oh, no, no, no, no, I don't have a type.
No, no, no, no.
She's just not what I usually date.
She's not it.
I don't have a type, but that ain't it, basically.
He kept saying he couldn't find himself being attracted to her
and he wasn't going to give it a chance. The producer's like, you just met her. And he's like, don't care, basically. He kept saying he couldn't find himself being attracted to her and he wasn't going to give it a chance.
The producer's like, you just met her.
And he's like, don't care, not interested.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it was brutal.
I know.
And he's a teacher.
Yeah.
I think that's why he was like...
Do people not think when they go on their shows that like,
do they not realise they're going to be seen by the entire country?
He went for a walk off with the producer
and he wasn't being filmed as such.
And I think he forgot he had a mic on or something
because it's crystal clear.
Yeah.
And that's when he's really like,
I find petite women attractive.
I think he thought he wasn't being filmed.
Yeah.
And then basically said to the producer,
like, you cannot air that.
And they're like,
this is the best TV we've ever seen in our life.
Anyway, speaking of the fact that you get no say right.
So there's a previous Mavs producer who was like, we've ever seen in our life. Anyway, speaking of the fact that you get no say rights,
there's a previous maths producer who was like,
I'll just open the lid on some of this stuff.
Right.
And they actually, once you sign up to the show,
I don't think they quite realise how much they're actually giving away.
And she was sharing some of the details of the contracts that they sign.
Regular people, when faced with contracts which basically say
they have to sign away their rights in perpetuity
or whatever it's called, they have to sign away the rights
to their footage, their vision, their voice forever, right?
So they cannot sue.
The contracts are ironclad.
Most people retreat at that point.
Most people would think, oh, it'd be fun to go on, you know,
something could come of it. But a lot of people at that point are Most people would think, oh, it'd be fun to go on, you know, something could come of it.
But a lot of people at that point are just like, you know what?
It's not worth it.
Yeah, basically, like, it does seem like all fun and games.
And then those contracts are apparently terrible.
And you just can't do anything about it.
And they own you and that's it.
And they can paint you however they like.
If they want to make you the villain, you're the villain.
Wow, Carla May the villain. Wow.
Carla, me shocked.
Getting better.
Was that good acting?
Getting better, actually.
Getting better, yeah.
Getting better.
Anyway, I'm enjoying it.
We're all enjoying it.
I just love soaking up this trashy drama so much.
It's so good.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
I made a return yesterday.
I'd bought a number of frocks for a photo shoot
and I returned all of them that Icks for a photo shoot and I returned
all of them that I didn't use
and the one I did use.
Did you leave the tag
on? Yeah. Back to
Australia with you.
Right. Yeah. I'm not even
ashamed of it.
I wore it for five hours.
Bits fell off it and I
returned it. Anyway. So it's fell off it and I returned it.
Anyway.
So it's a woman destroying the economy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I did buy one.
At least that dress doesn't have a massive carbon footprint now.
Huge.
And it's made mostly of plastic.
Yeah. It's terrible.
By who made it?
Children in a third world country?
Tiny little hens.
Right.
So problems from start to end.
From start to finish. But boy, oh boy, am I going to look good Tiny little hens. Right. So problems from start to end. From start to finish.
But boy, oh boy, am I going to look good in that photo shoot.
Okay.
But I did buy one dress from a Kiwi company
and I literally didn't even take it out of the wrapper
and it's been sitting in my car and I was like,
I've got to return it.
Yeah.
Popped into the mall, returned it.
Fantastic.
Service.
Lovely.
Left.
And then I was coming out of the mall
and there was a secure,
a female security guard standing outside of a shop,
you know,
how they've got them now because people started driving their cars into the
malls,
you know,
how that started happening.
Yeah.
And there was a young,
like sort of when I say young,
I say my age.
So I mean young.
Yeah.
She was a,
there was a young female security guard standing there and, you know, not doing anything, like
standing.
That's part of the job is not doing much.
And she sort of stood there.
Was she in one of those stab-proof vests?
Yeah.
But it's not a stab-proof vest.
She's definitely just brought it herself.
Yeah.
And it says security on it.
Yeah.
It's like a Teemu bulletproof vest, but without the bulletproof.
Ain't going to stop nothing.
Yeah.
So she's standing there in her garb.
Lots of pockets, though.
Yeah.
A lot of pockets.
It looks handy.
Yeah.
It looks like a black fly fishing vest.
Yes.
And then as I sort of passed this woman, there was an older Pākehā gentleman.
Not that race matters, but I just feel like chugging that in there.
Yeah.
Older Pākehā, because she wasn't
Pākehā. Older Pākehā gentleman
who walked past her and then just said
hello. Oh man,
I would hate your job. And then just kept
walking.
I think that he just meant
to be like, oh, you know,
you look a bit bored or something like that.
And when you do have to deal with something, it's horrible.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've got to deal with people throwing hammers through jewellers cases or something like that. And when you do have to deal with something that's horrible. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got to deal with, you know,
people throwing hammers through jewellers' cases and stuff like that and then running and punching and hitting.
Yeah, I don't think he was trying to be malicious as in like,
ha-ha, you've got a crap job.
Yeah.
But I was like, dude, like, say to someone,
I would absolutely hate to have your life.
Yeah.
That looks miserable.
Like, that's not something you say to someone.
Yeah.
And I could see her face go, what?
Like, why did you feel the need to say that?
Yeah.
Anyway.
Why was he even speaking to her?
Yeah.
So, like, it was definitely an accident, but she was definitely insulted.
My dad loves talking to people.
I got this vibe from him, too, that he was just wanting to connect.
He's an old mate. A social guy. Just loves, hello, and I got this vibe from him too, that he was just wanting to connect. He's an old mate.
He's a social guy.
He just loves,
hello, and I'm going to make your day.
Rather than saying,
you're doing a great job at that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or slow work day.
I couldn't do it.
Or I couldn't do what you're doing.
Like, they don't process it like that.
And they say something like,
man, I'd hate your job.
Yeah.
Have a good day.
Yeah, I could never do what you do
or something like that.
It's in tone.
Yeah, sometimes my dad
will talk to strangers and I'll be like, dad, just, I could never do what you do or something like that. It's in tone. Man, I would hate your job.
Sometimes my dad will talk to strangers and I'll be like,
Dad, just get the intention.
Yeah.
But it just needed a little bit of crafting.
Needed a bit of crafting.
Yeah.
Anyway, so I messaged you guys and I was like,
she was so insulted.
He didn't mean it.
This is what I know.
When did someone maybe accidentally insult you?
It's always the old mates.
Oh, yeah. Or Nan at the old mates. Oh yeah.
Or Nan at Christmas.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
And can I just say, Fletch, do you know what I love about you?
Is how you just go, you know what, beauty standards screw you.
Yeah.
You are so brave to wear that.
Yeah.
I just think someone as you are wearing that, I just think go you.
As I am.
You know, all power to you. As I am. You know, all power to you.
As I am.
It's that stuff.
And they're like, they're not really meaning to insult you.
Yeah, yeah.
And yet here we are.
With you being you, it was a very brave decision.
Yes.
You know, considering everything that you are, to put yourself out there.
Like that.
Like that.
I mean, hats off.
I just love it so much. that. I mean, hats off. I just love
it so much. And they never mean
to insult you. Oh, I love
it. Oh, this happened to, I remember
this happened to me when
I was a teenager and I had a very petite
friend and we were going to
the beach and I said, I don't have any togs. And she said,
oh my God, I've got this set here. They're
massive on me. So they'll fit you. And I remember
being like, you're not, you just haven't thought. Oh no, no, massive on me so they'll fit you and I remember being like you just haven't thought
oh no no no they'll fit you
they're like huge on me they absolutely fall off
so they'll maybe just get on
okay this is what we want to hear
from you this morning
0800 dials at M you can text her as well
9696
when did someone unintentionally insult you
whether it was...
Whether it was Nan at Christmas.
Yep, yep.
Or a stranger.
Normally old white guys.
Great.
Okay, get your texts in.
We'll get to those next.
Oh, God, some of these are shocking.
And they are just pouring in.
We want to know when you've been accidentally insulted.
Yes.
Yesterday at the mall,
a guy walked past a female security guard and said,
oh, God, I would hate your job.
I would absolutely hate to have your job.
And you're like, okay, I sort of see what you're saying, but yeah.
Stacey, when were you accidentally insulted?
So me and my now husband were out shopping one day
and brought him into the changing rooms and tried something on
and came out.
Oh, this is instantly landmine territory.
Oh, yeah.
Yes.
So I came out and I was like, so what do you think?
And he's like, oh, I think it looks better on the rack.
Oh.
What was he?
You don't say that.
You just never hear darling. I just never
he doesn't learn.
I don't think
he meant to say that.
I think he just meant
like it didn't suit me.
But there was a woman
in the changing room
as well who
whipped open the curtain
and was sort of like,
you are incredibly brave
or incredibly stupid.
Or an interesting
mix of both.
I don't go close with my husband anymore.
No, he's not invited.
Maybe that was his scheme all along.
To get out of it.
To get out of it.
Could have been.
Stacey, thank you.
Nina, when were you accidentally embarrassed?
Hey, well, it was actually by a friend of mine who,
we would just specifically use like Green Lion King dungarees
that I sometimes rock. I haven't been in for a while. Wait like green lion king dungarees that i sometimes
rock i haven't been in for a while green lion king dungarees yeah they're actually pretty fantastic
i'm not gonna lie they sound fantastic what makes them lion king dungarees they have a sort of a
motif of the animals from the line yeah it's like the original like uh animation of The Lion King. Okay. I'll say it. I'll say it. Shit, yeah.
Shit, yeah.
Yeah, one time we were discussing notes
and she just, or I just said to me,
well, you know, you're one of those people
that just wears really weird, crazy outfits
and you just kind of get away with it.
And it felt kind of like a backhanded compliment.
Yeah, I love that.
I made a mistake of telling my partner
and he hasn't dropped it.
It's been years. He mentions it on the regs. I love that. I made a mistake of telling my partner and he hasn't dropped it. It's been years.
He mentions it on the rags.
I love that.
Oh, my God.
You just wear the most, like, rogue crap.
And you look really cool.
You're like, these are my clothes.
I was like that?
Thank you.
Nina, thank you.
Susanna, you were the insulter.
Oh.
I was, unfortunately.
Okay.
Just the wrong term of words.
Quite a few years ago, we were in South Africa,
and they used to allow, like in the lion parks,
you used to be able to go in and pet the baby cubs and lions and things.
We remember the time.
Dope them up a bit.
You should have met Nina.
She's got Lion King dungarees. Yeah, I'm getting in there for a pat of a baby lion
Simmering it all up
So I was in there with my young daughter
And with the
Keeper I guess
And she was holding the cubs
And you could touch, pat them and stuff
And it was just so beautiful
And I said to her, your job's not hard.
And I wanted to say, like, it was more, like, rewarding, you know.
Yes, yes, yes.
Your job's not hard.
You don't have a hard job.
Yeah.
And she looks at me and she just said,
I've got to get up at three, you know, three times every three hours.
And she said, because then they take so much work.
And I just felt awful.
And also, they could eat me at any moment.
Yeah, I literally am here working with lions.
Yeah.
I love that.
I totally hear your intention.
Your job's not hard.
What a fun job.
What a rewarding job.
Yes, yes.
You don't work very hard, do you, is how she heard it.
Susanna, thank you.
So many messages in.
So many.
There's just so many.
My best friend was a model when she was younger.
She was like a stunner.
Everybody commented on it.
She had a baby and she just got older.
Yep.
Now, when she applied for a job, apparently the guy doing the application Googled her
and found her old modelling pics.
And when she went in
he said
you were quite a stunner
in your prime weren't you
things you don't say
I love this
my gay best mate
literally last week
said to me
I've just never found you attractive
now I know she meant
she'd never been attracted to me
but all I could think of
was that song
am I not pretty enough
oh god there's just I can think of was that song, Am I not pretty enough?
Oh God.
When I was a kid, I was really skinny and I told my mum about a dream I had
that Slender Man was watching me through the mirror.
She responded,
You sure you didn't just see yourself in the mirror?
It's good.
It was always really good when mums, you know,
really concentrated on their daughter's positive body image.
Yes.
The decade was the 90s.
Didn't leave any issues down the road at all.
Oh, God, no, no, no.
We're not hanging on to that.
My work gave me a Thai massage voucher as a maternity prison.
I couldn't use it for ages because I had the baby.
And when I eventually used it, the older receptionist said,
have you had the baby?
And I said, yes, I've had the baby.
And she said, how old are you?
And I said, I'm 42. And she said, you're too old to be having babies. Oh, I mean, Thai, I've had the baby. And she said, how old are you? And I said, I'm 42.
And she said, you're too old to be having babies.
Oh, I mean, Thai women are very blunt.
I walked into a clothing store in Thailand
and they've gone like, no, no, no, no, no, too big.
Out, out, out, out.
I'd hate to have your job,
which was what got us started
as the old white guy said it to the security guard
that you saw yesterday. Somebody said, an early childhood education, it's either, man, your job must
be fun just playing with stickers all day.
Oh, yeah.
Or, man, I hate your job as they pass you the brattiest kids in the world.
Yeah.
Yeah, because you're not doing your job at home.
I'm quite a curvy girl and anytime I mention it, my mum will always say
to me, but you wouldn't be as pretty if you were
skinny. That's kind of like
it's
close because you're saying I'm
not skinny. But I am
pretty. Yeah, I know this is a thing with
you know, full of
figured women, curvy girls, people say, oh you've
got such a nice face.
That's the only compliment. You've got such a nice face. That's the only compliment.
You've got such a nice face.
My Indian mother-in-law
bought me a full Indian outfit
for a wedding.
She made me try it on
in front of her
and told me I looked beautiful
because it hid all my fat.
Fuck yeah,
our daughter-in-law
was very offended
but just smiled
through the entire thing.
My nana's pen pal
from Greenland,
that's a whole story
we need to know more about.
Or was staying with her.
And we went there for tea one night when we walked in.
She said, I told you I have big grandchildren.
My husband's grandma saw me laying on a sunbed and said,
oh, I never realised what a bumper you are.
A what?
A bumper.
Never heard an old person
I know what it
Kind of knows what it means
Yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah
Here it is
Had cancer
Lost a lot of weight
Next time I saw someone
Said
It's not
Being skinny's not really
Working for you
I'm sick
And they said
Yeah
I've got cancer
I didn't really have a choice
In it Oh gosh But I'll assure you I'll get filled out again As soon as possible and they said, yeah, I didn't really have a choice in it.
Oh gosh.
I assure you,
I'll get filled out again as soon as possible.
I always thought I was a fun, bubbly, vibrant person
until a close friend casually described someone else saying,
oh no,
oh, saying,
oh no, they're kind of flat,
sort of monotonous,
quite like stony face,
a bit like you basically.
Ouch.
Oh God.
My flight got cancelled
I got stranded in Wellington
and I had to find a hotel
for a night.
I had to give my ID
at reception
and it was my driver's licence
it was about to expire
so it was you know
from a while back.
The lady looked at my ID
and then looked at me
and then looked back at the ID
and said sorry
but I took that as the insult.
She was saying, sorry that I don't look like this anymore.
And also, sorry I'm taking so long to say this is you.
I've had this before on multiple occasions as a very white presenting Maori.
Habi and I had corporate seats at the ASB Classic.
Oh, darling.
When the porphyry started to welcome the players to the courts,
the lady next to me leaned over and said,
God, this is bloody pointless, don't you agree?
I am quite clearly Maori.
Oh, gosh.
I had it at a wedding.
Someone leaned in and it was a Maori,
one of the grooms was Maori.
Someone leaned in and was like,
God, enough of the bloody Maori crap, am I right?
And I was like, oh,
wrong crowd, darling.
Wrong crowd.
Play ZM's Flesh,
One and Hayley. Right now it's time for
Fact
of the Day, Day, Day,
Day, Day. It's company pivot week
Matt has naming rights
Because I was struggling to really surmise the fact
That this fact of the week, fact of the day
Weeked theme
Spit it out
Good lord boy That's a lot of words Was about companies that we recognise now for one thing Fact of the week, fact of the day, week's theme. Spit it out. Good Lord, boy.
That's a lot of words.
It was about companies that we recognise now for one thing,
but they started out doing something very different.
Company of the week.
Thank you very much for Matt.
I'm loving it.
Way better than that.
Horrific.
Calendar week.
Lest we forget.
I know.
Calendar week.
These are the kind of weeks we want.
I might revisit calendar week.
You're asking for it.
No, we're not.
You're asking for it.
Another week of calendar facts. Everyone is asking calendar week. You're asking for it. No, we're not. You're asking for another week of calendar facts.
No one is asking for it.
Everyone's asking for it.
I would like to talk today about a company started by Herman, Hillel, and Henry Hassenfield.
Three brothers.
Okay.
Henry, Herman, and Hassenfield.
Herman, Hillel, which is a name I've never heard before.
It's the word hill, like a hill.
Yeah.
With L on the end.
Hillel. And Henry H the end. Hillow.
And Henry Hassenfield.
Any idea what company they started?
Tell us what they do now, what this company does now.
I'm not going to tell you what they do now.
I'm going to tell you what they started with,
and then you can work it out.
Okay, go.
They dealt in selling textile remnants.
So textile remnants would be a massive textile company
would be mass producing things made of textile. All their offcuts and stuff would be A massive textile company would be making Mass producing things made of textile
All the offcuts and stuff would be more or less
Scrap. These brothers saw an opportunity for other
Things to be made out of them. Chemicals
They would purchase them. They would make
Things like pencil cases
School supplies. Great. Backpacks
And stuff. Anything that required a small
A lot of small amounts of textile. 3M
No but 3M is another
Company that started out making stuff
you wouldn't expect that it made.
Or maybe Stay Chained.
Maybe save that for Friday.
Is it chemicals?
Do they do chemicals now?
No, they don't do chemicals.
The clue is in the fact that they were all brothers
and their name is Hassenfield.
Oh, the circus.
Weber Brothers Circus.
The Weber Brothers Circus.
They're not the Weber Brothers, they're the Hassenfield Brothers.
Hassenfield.
Hassenfield.
No.
Take the first three letters of Hassenfield and also brothers.
Hasbro.
Hasbro.
The toy company.
Hasbro.
The toy company, indeed.
Wow.
Oh, okay.
So, yeah, they just bought up scraps, basically,
from other textile companies in Rhode Island,
which there was a lot of factories there.
The three of them were just like, there's money to be made there,
and they started making pencil cases.
Then they also started making pencils,
because the person that supplied them the pencil was like,
they're kind of making something and selling it,
but they're not paying much for the product.
Yeah, right.
It's a great business model.
Yeah.
We'll start making pencil cases as well.
And they said, well, we'll show you.
We'll start making pencils.
Yeah.
So they started making pencils and pencil cases.
And then during World War II, they were Polish-Jewish brothers.
They immigrated to the States before World War II.
And in World War II-
Not a great time.
Not a great time.
To be Polish-Jewish.
No, especially if you're still in Poland and Jewish. Not a great time at all.
Some of them got involved in the war effort
and also it was during World War II that they, because of the materials
were being used for uniforms, all manner of things.
Metal was used for the war effort. They were making planes, they were making tanks, they were making jeeps,
they were making everything for the war effort and They were making planes. They were making tanks. They were making Jeeps. They were making everything for the war effort and bullets, et cetera.
They had to find another thing to make their pencil cases and stuff out of,
and that's when they came across plastic, our good friend plastic.
Oh, my God.
Never done a single thing wrong in its life other than exist forevermore.
The ocean isn't full of it.
No.
We're not full of microbes.
It's in our brains now.
It's in our brains.
Yeah.
Yum.
It's great.
So good.
Their first major popular toy was
plastic arms
and plastic legs and plastic
eyes and a plastic hat.
And it was B.Y.O. Potato.
Potato Head.
Mr. Potato Head. The original Mr. Potato Head.
They didn't make the potato. No.
They just sold the arms and the legs and the eyes and the hat
and the mouth and the nose.
And you just had to get one of Mum's potatoes.
Yeah.
And you might be thinking, Vaughan, you shouldn't say Mum's potatoes.
It's going to be Dad's potatoes.
It's 1950.
It's Mum's potatoes.
Get back in the kitchen.
They're Mum's potatoes.
They're Mum's potatoes.
Dad's going to give you a wrap around the arse for using a potato
when he gets home from a long, hard day at the factory.
He doesn't even know your name. He doesn day at the factory. He doesn't even know your name.
He doesn't care your name.
He's got a bottle of whiskey to drink and 18
cigarettes to smoke. He wants to be left alone.
Because he went to the war but now he can't talk about
it because he's having to shove it all down because he
was raised by a man that fought in the first
World War. Times were tough. That's right.
And that's why our fathers don't speak
about a lot of things about their feelings
but it's up to us.
Yeah.
To speak from our heart.
Break the cycle.
About our feelings.
And not just keep pushing it down and having strokes
in our late 50s because of blood pressure issues.
That's right.
And cigarettes.
And a bottle of whiskey.
Anyway, we're not here to talk about that.
And so today.
We're not here to talk about that.
They also, in 1963, a little bit of Hasbro chat,
introduced Flubber, which was like this bouncy slime you might remember
in a 90s movie starring Robin Williams.
However, Flubber was recalled due to the fact
that children who played with Flubber reported sore throats and rashes.
What did they put in it?
Not exactly sure.
That's probably a fact of the day in itself.
That would be a good one, recalled products.
Yeah, it's like women's makeup with lead and...
Yeah.
In 1963, they were offered to license a toy based on The Lieutenant,
which was a short-lived TV series, and they said no,
and instead developed G.I. Joe as the world's first action figure
and termed the...
Because people would call them dolls, and they were like,
they're not dolls.
These are action figures.
And they went on to do action figures, And, well, the rest is history.
They've done, you know.
The original brothers kind of all died and stuff.
And their kids and stuff took it over.
Of course they did.
That's life.
That's how life works.
That's how life works.
You know what I mean?
We don't live forever as much as we want to.
But factual.
Literally.
So today's fact of the day is Hasbro, the toy maker that we've probably all got some toys of
or a board game or five rammed in the hot water cupboard that they made.
Why did you grow up keeping your ball games in the hot water cupboard?
No, that's space for tea towels and sheets.
I think it was tea towels and sheets.
We had it in the hallway sheet cupboard.
Oh, poor.
Yeah.
Sounds like you didn't have enough cupboards in your house.
We didn't have a lot of cupboards.
Sounds like someone only had one cupboard.
We didn't have a lot of cupboards.
Well, we had multi-cupboards.
Did you?
Yeah.
A very cupboard-y household. Absolutely ram lot of cupboards. Well, we had multi-cupboards. Did you? Yeah. A very cupboard-y household.
Absolutely rammed with cupboards.
So many cupboards.
More storage than you knew what to do with.
So many square metres of your house were wasted in cupboards.
Oh, yeah.
One bedroom.
Only one bedroom.
Yeah.
One bedroom, one bath.
Three cupboards.
Three cupboards.
So today's fact of the day is Hasbro, the toy manufacturer,
started out making pencil cases out of scraps of fabric.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.

After the show yesterday, I went and had a delicious cup of joe.
I've never said that in my life.
Anyway, trying it out.
A delicious coffee.
I had a delicious coffee.
Yeah, had a cup of joe.
Hey, bagel or a cup of joe. Bagel and a cup of joe.
Just a cup of joe. Anyway,
I went with Morgan Penn,
sexologist, host of sex.life,
to discuss
exciting things.
Breaking news. I'm not breaking no news.
You shall not hear the breaketh of
news from these lips.
But we were discussing business
ventures. You do the math.
Yeah.
On what we were doing.
And as we were doing that, you know, the conversation turns.
We bounce back and forth.
How's things with you?
How's, you know, we're asking the how's things in the bedroom
and what are we doing?
This is about the time that I decided to tell Morgan that,
okay, for context, last year Morgan asked me if I
wanted to do a sexy lingerie boudoir
shoot for the podcast.
She's done them before, they're always
great. You get in your
undies and you
do cute poses and stuff.
A little sexy shoot. Georgia Burt, would you do this?
Would you ever do this? Absolutely
not. So this is what I said to her last
year, Georgia. I was like, no.
No.
Like, I'm not.
No.
No.
It's not happening.
I'm not comfortable.
I'm not doing that.
However, cut to this year.
I'm feeling myself.
Okay.
And I think instead of jumping straight in to do a boudoir shoot, Georgia,
what I'll do on a nice holiday morning over the summer
when I wake up and I'm feeling,
you know you wake up sometimes,
you're like, God damn.
You're like, where'd those abs come from?
Jeep.
No, not quite.
It's not been carried away.
We're not all Georgia Burt.
We're not all bloody playground fans.
Slightly different.
Running for fun and stuff.
Some of us are just trying to stop from premature death.
I work out every day to keep this mid-physique.
That's what's happening.
But I was, you know those mornings.
You're just feeling yourself.
And I thought, you know what?
Yes, for myself, I'm going to set up my own boudoir shoot.
Okay?
Okay, this is what I did.
So, okay.
So this is what's happening on this morning.
So I slip into the sexiest thing I've got.
And off I go.
I'm having a great morning.
Okay? And the photos. It's a kimono, isn I go. I'm having a great morning. Okay.
And I, the photos.
It's a kimono, isn't it?
It's not a kimono.
It's not.
Some big Bond's knickers.
No, and.
And a toweling bathrobe.
No, I was thinking of Morgan
who always tells me off my granny panties.
So I was very minimal.
Pura warehouse, track pants and an old polar fleece.
You know it, baby.
I got my sexiest stuff. So I was telling Morgan about this. She was like, oh fleece. You know it, baby. I got my sexy stuff.
So I was telling Morgan about this.
She was like, oh my God.
She was like, show me.
And I said, yes.
So I went on my phone to show her
where I remembered in a moment of clarity,
I've deleted them off my phone.
Because I was like, I don't want them hanging around.
There's too much in there.
You never know.
But I had airdropped them to my iCloud and they
were in a folder safe safe safe for no one to unintentionally see yeah so I say oh my god I was
like wait wait wait wait wait I'm gonna show you some so I had to go in I had to go into my iCloud
on my phone find the thing and I was like I just want to show on the phone, so I'll airdrop it to myself on my phone,
on my computer.
I was like, airdrop it to the phone
so I can easily show Morgan.
I'm stressed.
My, okay, my phone I have not named.
It is just iPhone.
This is where you've gone wrong.
And this needs to be a PSA for everybody.
Name your phone.
Name your phone. Because I'm at a
cafe, right? I'm at a peopled
cafe. The cafe near work, it's peopled.
And I... This one that
we always go to. Yeah, so we
don't go there anymore. Because
I... Morgan's...
Morgan's phone comes up in my eyedrop
option. Why didn't I just send it to Morgan?
Why am I trying to airdrop it to myself from this thing?
I airdrop it to iPhone,
assuming my iPhone.
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
You know, makes that noise.
Accepted.
Roop, wheel.
Yeah.
But where is it?
Because usually when you airdrop something to your phone,
boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, wheel, bing, there it is. Yep. because usually when you airdrop something to your phone pop pop pop pop pop
wheel
bing
there it is
yep
and I get to show it
to my friend Morgan
and no one else
it gets airdropped to a stranger
and they've accepted that
and I know it immediately
I feel it
I feel it in my bones
and I'm like
oh no
oh no
and I'm
get cancelled
undo
there's no
there's no
did you look around
to see who
yep I looked around
there was
I was outside
so the cafe's
very busy inside
but outside
there was only
a couple of people
there was a young woman
and it's the kind of photo
that um
you wouldn't see it
without making a face
it doesn't have to be
a good face
you're making a face
you're either going like
whoo
or like wow
or like oh my god I like, oh my God.
I look around, there's a young girl behind me,
you know, adult, but I was like,
okay, she hasn't received it.
Other people are on their phones.
I'm like hunting.
And then I just think I've got to stop hunting
and I have to leave.
And I left, I couldn't.
So someone yesterday received one hell of a photo.
If you were outside and it was airdrop,
line of sight,
it could have been anyone on that side of our building too.
And the building opposite.
And the thing upstairs from the cafe.
Could have been Mike Hosking, you know.
It could have been our boss.
No way.
What time was it?
10.30, 11?
No, he was at home in his hyperbaric chamber
listening to Right Wing Conspiracy for years by then.
It's how he doesn't age.
That's right.
He's an aging chamber.
Anyway, so someone's got it. Someone's how he doesn't age. That's right. He's an ageing chamber. Anyway, so someone's got it.
Someone's got it.
You are literally the plot of this movie.
Yeah, someone's got it.
Someone's got it. And it's
a lot.
That's all I can say.
It might show up being sold.
You might make some money
of this somehow. I'm not making the money.
I don't know who's got it. A stranger's got it.
Morgan saw it.
Eventually I figured it out to show her and she was impressed.
It's great for the profile
though. Is it?
I'm just trying to help out. I don't know what you
want to say. It's a lot.
But did Morgan go
it's not bad. You've got not much shocks Morgan.
Wait, could you see boobies?
Yeah. Well the whole part of the boobies?
Yeah, do we get nipple?
Yeah.
HQ?
You got a headquarters on there?
I thought the underwear was covering the boobs, but no.
There's underwear on the bottom.
Hardly.
Hardly on the bottom?
And the underwear on the bottom might as well not be there.
So, there we go.
There we go.
Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley. we're on the bottom. Might as well not be there. So there we go. There we go.
There's rumours abound that we might be getting a reboot.
Well, a reboot's different.
It's not a carry on.
They're saying reboot.
So it's not going to be like
she's not training the next generation
of Vampire Slayer.
They're starting again with the story
of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Boofy. Boofy.
Boofy.
Which,
Georgia Burt,
you are in studio.
You're a big Buffy.
You would have been at the bottom.
How old are you now?
31 this year.
31.
So you would have been at the bottom end of the Buffy fandom.
Yeah, I was right on.
I'm 35.
I was like right on.
Are you only 35?
No.
Oh my God.
Beautiful.
No, I said only 35.
It was an insult.
I'll just give you a chance to reprocess.
No, you...
You're only 35?
What do you...
Oh, what?
Hack it.
You old hack.
Yeah, no, it was right on for me.
He says dying of emphysema.
Yeah, shame.
That's what you get because I'm a witch.
You get emphysema.
It was so...
You were a teenage witch. I was a teenage witch. That's Sabrina. No, totally. that's what you get. Because I'm a witch. You get emphysema. You were a teenage witch.
I was a teenage witch.
That's Sabrina.
No, totally.
That's different.
This was like the vibe.
I grew into Buffy.
You grew into Buffy.
It was sexy.
A lot of leather.
It was very sexy.
A lot of frosted tips.
Yes, lots of frosted tips.
The girls in the producer's booth are a little too young
to remember Buffy first time around.
And I said, even now, I think they'd like it.
Yeah, they would.
If you got into like Twilight
or all of that kind of stuff.
Dude, it was 10 times what Twilight was.
Oh my God, I know.
Twilight was toilet water
and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
was a beautiful artisan figure.
Buffy ran so that Twilight could stumble.
Stumble and fall and fall on its face
and fall into a big puddle of poos.
So what they're redoing the whole,
they're talking about rebooting it.
Wow, okay.
What am I to expect
from Buffy the Vampire
except for vampires?
Vampires.
Lots of vampires.
Sexy vampires.
Sexy vampires
and then she falls in love
with the vampire.
Quite a few hickeys.
There's the will they won't they.
Hickeys.
Mum died.
Spoiler alert, mum dies.
Sparkly?
Do they kiss?
No, they're not sparkly.
No, they don't sparkle.
They kiss, they kiss. Do they like fly like in Twilight? He like spider monkeys No, they're not sparkly. No, they don't sparkle. They kiss.
They kiss.
Do they like fly like in Twilight?
He like spider monkeys?
We didn't have the effects in the 90s.
Oh, okay.
For these sparkles and these flames.
Angel was like the sexiest vampire.
And then Spike was like the smart-ass vampire.
These are such 90s names.
Angel and Spike.
The guy that played Spike, James Masters.
I just looked him up.
62 years old.
Wow.
Sarah Michelle Gallows, 47.
She played Buffy.
So will she play Buffy again?
No, no, no.
She's not playing Buffy.
They're going to get a new Buffy.
And they're saying reboot.
So to me, reboot means a hard reset,
not she comes in and takes the role of Rupert,
who kind of, remember Rupert, the British guy?
And they're going to have to Gen Z it up, though, aren't they?
We've seen Gossamer do this, and it wasn't good.
They did this with How I Met Your Mother, wasn't good.
Wasn't good.
No, they did How I Met Your Father, right?
Yeah.
That's what it says about Gen Z, doesn't it?
What?
I know, they added a little too much of this and that, eh?
Just go actually watch Buffy.
Okay.
It's so good.
Gen Z aren't the ones making these films.
Calm down, I'm not directing it.
Yeah, Buffy will come in and they'll be like,
I killed him.
And they'll be like, whoa, don't assume pronouns.
And then Buffy will be cancelled.
And Buffy's like, I'm just here to slay vampires.
And they're like, you can't call them that anymore.
I'm here to slay two queens.
Slay queen.
Yeah.
Hey, guys.
Apparently being the company's most successful podcast isn't enough.
They want us to tell people to tell more of their friends.
So people are clearly liking it, but we have to tell them to tell others to like it.
I would concentrate more on the shitter podcasts that the company makes.
Yeah, same.
You know, the real losers out there.
Same.
No, no, no, we'll just...
Yeah.
Maybe we won't say nice.
Maybe we should even encourage people to listen to other podcasts that the company makes.
Yeah.
No, but only after ours.
Yeah, nah, nah, don't do that.
And not more than ours.
Yeah.
Give us a sexy little review, though.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
