Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. The Fledgeforn and Hayley Big Pod. Great things are brewing at McCafe. The perfect start to every day. Good morning, welcome to the show, Fledgeforn and Hayley. It's two minutes past six. I've stuffed up my breakfast. What have you done?
Starting point is 00:00:16 I was unprepared yesterday. I didn't make anything in advance and I'm trying to sort of go, you know, high protes in the morning. Yeah. So all I did was grab quite a lot of protein yogurt. Man, it's festering. Look at that.
Starting point is 00:00:31 My stomach's already bloated. A woman or a man or a child or a person cannot survive on yogurt alone. Yeah. I've had a yogurt and a nut bar, and the mixture is really whoo. Okay, right. Well, that bodes well for us, doesn't it? Yeah. In the the mixture is really, whoo. Okay, right. Well, that bodes well for us, doesn't it? Yeah. In the studio with that kind of gassy guts.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Full of gassy guts. Oh, my God. Actually, well, long teas. May I long teas? Yeah. I've stuffed up all my eating within the last 24 hours. I really have. Yesterday, not so good.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Okay. More on that after eight. Said it have. Yesterday, not so good. Okay. More on that after eight. Said it was a long tease. Eight o'clock as well. We'll give you today's one golden song. That's the song you've got to be listening to. Thanks to One NZ to win $1,000 cash. That'd be nice.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Easy, easy. Just got to hear it and be the first caller through to win. Next on the show. Speaking of health. Speaking of health and food and stuff that maybe doesn't taste that good, there is a new food trend.
Starting point is 00:01:31 I'm going to tell you what it is. It's yucky. People love to jump on a trend, don't they? A diet trend in particular. It's the quintessential part of a trend, isn't it? People jumping on. People jumping on.
Starting point is 00:01:47 You're actually right there. You've really broken down the definition of trend. Yeah. I'm going to go to Collins. I'll go to Collins for an official trend definition. You're going to do it like a high school speech. The Arctic Dictionary states that a trend is defined as... A general direction in which something is developing
Starting point is 00:02:03 or changing. A fashion. I don't know if everybody's going to be doing this. Defined as. A general direction in which something is developing or changing. A fashion. I don't know if everybody's going to be doing this. This sounds manky. It's also not, doesn't do what people say it does. So it's called tadpole water. And it's called that because it's chia seeds in water, which if you know chia seeds, you put them in water, they like expand and go to a gloop.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Yep. You slurp the gloop. And people are saying it makes you lose weight. It doesn't. It just flushes you out, doesn't it? It flushes you out. It makes you shit yourself, basically. It clears everything.
Starting point is 00:02:35 It's got nothing to do, because, you know, nutritionists and scientists have jumped in and been like, um, no. It can actually also have the opposite effect if you do it too much, because people will be like, oh, I'm going to slurp up my tadpole water. And chia seeds, while very healthy for you, great protein, great full of vitamins, also very high in fat. So if you were just like chugging this down,
Starting point is 00:02:55 but also having like a, eating normal food as well. They'd be good fats though, right? They'd be good fats. Totally, but still if you're doing it too much. Everything in, you know, a balanced diet. Yeah, you're just having too much. So yeah, you have it and then it basically clears you out. But they were like, people are putting in a whole bunch
Starting point is 00:03:12 and then putting this water in and slurping it every day. It's basically colonoscopy water, right? Yeah. But on a colonoscopy, you're not allowed to have chia seeds. No, the seeds get caught in the folds of the colon. Right. No seeds. Right. On the week of the colon. Right. No seeds. Right. On the week of your colonoscopy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Especially if you've got a big old long colon like me. Yeah, long. Long colon. You've got a hung colon. A hung ass. Imagine an inside out elephant's trunk. Yeah, that's me. That's wrapped up all in here. Super long. But it takes things like seeds and stuff that stick to your digestive
Starting point is 00:03:44 tract takes longer. Right. Yeah, so it's like seeds and stuff that stick to your digestive tract takes longer. Right. Yeah, so it's like this TikTok thing and people are going like, oh my god, guys, I lost three pounds. I'm like, no you didn't. You pooped yourself. You pooped. Yeah, yeah. You pooped it out and then you're going to eat some food and it'll be right back down there. So a lot of nutritionists, fitness coaches, scientists
Starting point is 00:03:59 are saying, don't do this. Also, if you put too much chia seeds and not enough water, the seeds will actually expand in your stomach, cause blockage, meaning you'll be constipated, which is actually the difference. So you've got to be having more water for it. And then one scientist, I thought, put it really great.
Starting point is 00:04:20 It's not rocket science to eat a healthy, balanced diet or something like that. Being like, stop trying to poop your way into a body that you like. Stop trying to poop your way to skinny. It's just not a thing. Oh, please. Poop yourself to skinny. I really want to poop myself to skinny.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Look, I love pooping. Me too. But you can't poop yourself skinny. That's a fact. That is a fact. And I am a scientist. Now, I talk a lot about my acting degree, but very little about my science degree.
Starting point is 00:04:50 I didn't want to bring it up. I didn't want to make you feel intimidated. Are you acting that you have a science degree? You wouldn't know because of the acting degree. Because of the acting degree. It's so strong. It's that good. We're caught in a paradox.
Starting point is 00:05:00 You are. You'll never know. We'll never escape. My name's not even Hayley. You fools. Whoa. She's good. I know. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Now, these stats are out of America. 21% of school kids leave their school lunch uneaten. Really? And apparently parents will eat it as leftovers. Yeah, I always eat it as leftovers Because the girls get home and they'll eat The fun stuff that they want to eat The chips and the muffin or whatever's in there
Starting point is 00:05:33 So nothing healthy And then be too full when it gets to dinner But then like an hour later be like I'm hungry again We never had like muesli bars or like chips It was always like fruit, like apples I think I may have been muesli bar territory. Box of raisins.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Box of raisins. Oh yeah, we had boxes of raisins. And then you make a whistle out of it. And you make a whistle out of it by squeezing the box. So there was always like that motivation to eat the raisins because then you've got a whistle. Yeah. But I'll eat all the like fruit and stuff
Starting point is 00:06:02 because it just sits there. Yeah. Yeah. Drives me nuts. It drives me nuts. It drives me nuts. When I was down in Wellington last weekend and I was hanging out with my best friend and her two kids, we had a movie night and we're like, let's go get all these snacks. We're like, any junk food, we can have it.
Starting point is 00:06:16 And her son chose roll-ups. And I was like, why? And he was like, because you said any snack and we're not allowed roll-ups in our lunch. And neither was I. Roll-ups and yonks. Fruit for y snack And we're not allowed roll-ups in our lunch And neither was I Roll-ups and yonks Fruit for yonks Fruit for yonks Fruit for yonks was the long tape
Starting point is 00:06:30 Roll-ups were the shit Never had less snacks Nah, never had less snacks They were always the posh people Yeah, that's right, they were You had less snacks We had less snacks Of course you did
Starting point is 00:06:39 We had tiny titties and dungaroos You know, the kangaroos We didn't have anything that came in a packet, basically. Yeah, same. Anything that was individually wrapped, it wasn't here. Because we didn't go to private school. No, I'm talking about when I went to just regular rego primary school. I mean, the writing was on the wall that this was a primary school kid
Starting point is 00:06:58 that was heading to a private school. Oh, I was destined to head to a... The writing was on the wall. The other kids are like, oh, whoa, into an apple. I remember... And it was the 80s when I was at to get to it the other kids are like oh whoa into an apple I remember and it was the 80s when I was at
Starting point is 00:07:08 primary school late 80s early 90s so there wasn't the wide variety of apple choices we have now it was just red or green
Starting point is 00:07:15 it was red or green it was red delicious gala or granny smith it was always gala you used to get big bags of them yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:07:22 or braeburn I'm just like the ones with the malty skin yeah that came in a littleeburn. I'm just like the ones with the malty skin. Oh, yeah, Braeburn. Yeah, yuck. Yeah. That came in a little bit later on.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Because I feel like at school, because I was the same, like I didn't eat at all, especially if my mum made me an embarrassing egg sandwich. Oh, man, I would have killed for an egg sandwich. I would have eaten an egg sandwich. Oh, my God. She would like mash it, boil the eggs and mash it up with mayonnaise. Oh, Betsy.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Salt and pepper, a little bit of chives. Yeah. What a bitch. But it was stuck. What a bitch making a delicious, all I imagined was egg on a sandwich. You had chives. Oh, I'm talking. Mustard.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Beautiful. Yeah, yeah, yeah, lovely. No, but when you'd make an egg sandwich and you'd open up your lunchbox, you'd be like, shame. But you'd always have stuff left over because playtime was like, we've got to go play. So you'd just quickly eat whatever you first wanted and then go run around and play and then be starving afterwards.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Which is when I'd be served my platter. My kids eat at the end of lunchtime. What? Isn't that weird? They end, I'm sure they eat at the end of the play bit. I always eat first. I always eat first. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Then run it off. Yeah. To fuel the playtime. Get stitched. Oh, wow. You've got weird kids. Yeah, I've got weird kids. Get stitch. Oh, wow. You've got weird kids. Yeah, I've got weird kids. Have you got weird kids?
Starting point is 00:08:28 They've got a weird old setup for lunch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, 100%. That stat even seems a little bit light, to be honest. You think it's more? Yeah. Just not eating their lunches. Basically, anything healthy is left over.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Yeah. 21% of the lunchbox is healthy. Apples, yamilans. Oh, yeah. Raisins. Yeah. Play ZM's lunchbox is healthy. Apples, mandarins. Yeah, raisins. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Starting point is 00:08:49 We were just talking about the fact that the lotto jackpotting to super high amounts has happened lots recently. So the last must win was 50 million on the 8th of June.
Starting point is 00:09:01 That was won by seven players. That was the one that was divided by seven. That's right. And everyone got seven point something million dollars. And it won by seven players. That was the one that was divided by seven. That's right. And everyone got seven point something million dollars. And it's creeping up there. Tonight's lotto, and people are going nuts. Just remember you only need one ticket to win.
Starting point is 00:09:14 $38 million tonight. Yeah. That'd be good. And we've been doing this thing for a while that if we win, we've been promising we'll give each other a million dollars. Yeah. No, it's 1.5.
Starting point is 00:09:25 We've upped it. So it's gone. And when it gets to 40, it becomes 2 million. Okay, yeah. We're upping, we're upping. We only do it when it goes big. If it's only a mere 19 million, you ain't seen a dime from me, boys. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:37 You'll just disappear from work. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My apologies. It's been a wild ride. I've had a lovely time. I thought it was 19. I thought we were still doing a million. Yeah, probably. Anything over 15.. It's been a wild ride. I've had a lovely time. I thought it was 19. I thought we were still doing a million. Yeah, probably.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Anything over 15. Well, we need to put this into paperwork. Yeah, we need to draw out a contract. Yeah, I think we do. It's getting serious. Anyway, so with this big Wednesday happening tonight, and I guess Saturday if it doesn't go, one Kiwi has started a Reddit thread of
Starting point is 00:10:04 what is the mundane thing you're first going to buy if you win this lotto? So not like a fancy European sports car. It's like new pegs. You trip to Europe, pay off your mortgage and get a fancy car. Oh my god, I don't even have a
Starting point is 00:10:20 washing line. You could get a washing line. Yeah, get one of those. Oh my god, you could get someone to do your washing. Do you think washing line. I mean. You could get a washing line. Yeah, get one of those. You could get someone to do your washing. Do you think washing line technology has evolved to the point where it's got a remote control and you push a button and it unfolds itself and goes up. You hang your washing and then it takes itself up a couple of feet. Oh my god, that'd be nice.
Starting point is 00:10:36 That'd be nice. And then lightly gyrates. Yeah, spins around. We get a bit of air moving. How high does it go? Up into the jet stream a little bit. No, no, no, no, no, no. Just out of the way of the lawnmower. Okay. Oh, yes, you're not flicking up grass.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then, oh, there's got to be, okay, so then if it senses that it's going to rain, out of the top of that comes a big umbrella. Oh, my God. Great idea. Like a gazebo.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Oh, my God. Great idea. And then, and on the umbrella is small little heating panels as well. So it's like warm and heat. Stunning stuff. So that's you. You're getting a fancy washer and dryer. Just put it in the dryer.
Starting point is 00:11:13 No, it's not the same. It's not the same. It's not the same. I'll have a kiss of five minutes after being on the line. Great to get a stain out too, the sunlight. Is that? Yeah. I look forward to the sunlight returning this summer, hopefully.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Oh, yeah, frosty this morning. Right. Okay, so people have responded in droves. Here's some of the mundane things that Kiwis want to spend their lotto winnings on when they all in their brain win tonight. Matching wooden Kmart coat hangers. Oh, yeah. Because it's fancy when you've got a wardrobe with matching hangers.
Starting point is 00:11:43 I've got all black plastic. I've got all black plastic. I've got all black velvet. It's not fancy. All black velvet. Pause for applause. Wow, the Alana Miles wardrobe. Yeah, that's right. No, but it's like Kmart velvet.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Oh, 100%. They're like 20 cents each. Yeah, I mean, you just won $38 million, but there's no need to be stupid and buy your coat hangers from anywhere else. No, no, no, no, no, no. Kmart still has the best. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. No, no, no, no, no, no. Kmart still has the best. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Oh, someone said, I really want to buy some nice, fancy A4 paper for the printer. You know sometimes when you get something printed at like, warehouse station, it comes out thick. It's almost got a grit to it. You're like, far apart. It's like when the teacher would let you use the good cartridge paper.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Oh yeah, that was good. It's good paper. It was a thick paper. It was a good day. It was a good day. Thick grams per... What is it, grams per metre? GSM. Yeah, grams per square metres. A lot of people saying I would replace all of my socks and undies. And someone said I would get a hundred of one kind of nice sock,
Starting point is 00:12:39 never have to try to find a matching pair again. They just all match. This is what I do. I buy all my... That's what I do with socks too. I do bulk undies and bulk socks and then you replace them once every couple of years or whenever.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Yeah, nice. Someone said some lovely warm merino clothes will do. It's bloody frosty out there. Someone said matching well-fitted bras and undies. Now, I never wear matching, but God, when you do, you feel holier than thou. You feel better than everyone. You're like, oh my God, a bus
Starting point is 00:13:05 hit me today. Because boy oh boy, when they get my body and scrape it off the road, they're going to think the world of me. The first thing they'll say on the autopsy table is matching bra and undies. There's a woman who planned ahead. A lot of people, and when I saw this, I was like, oh my God. People are like,
Starting point is 00:13:22 I would go to the dentist and just get it all sorted. Be like, what's that? Fix it all. But someone said full body MRI scans, tests and everything. What? No. Have a look inside. Do me meal by meal, baby. This is what celebrities are doing.
Starting point is 00:13:38 They're getting preventative MRIs and full scans. You don't want to know. Yes, you do. No, you want to know early. I'd say if it's early, tell don't want to know. Yes, you do. No, you don't. You want to know early. I'd say if it's early, tell me. If I'm riddled, just say, ah, looks all good. Okay. But I got an MRI on my spine for a knee thing.
Starting point is 00:13:54 And they were like, it's just precautionary. And then you get to have a look at your spine. Now I know that my spine is superior. Did they look at everything while they were in there? Nah. What'd they say about? Oh, they were like, that's a mess. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:08 That needs attention. Right. Okay. Someone said they'll do a full overhaul of their bed linen and towels. Oh, yeah. We're talking fresh sheets. We're talking nice. I just want all new towels.

She never forgets anything like that.
Starting point is 00:21:41 She's a good person. You don't have that? I don't have that. But your dad wouldn't forget the container? Dad wouldn't forget the container. No, because Christine
Starting point is 00:21:48 would tell him not to forget the container. He'd probably put the container in the ute four days before he was leaving. Yeah. He plans ahead.
Starting point is 00:21:55 I wish I had a bit more of that too. But, hey, can't have it all. God, you are just useless, aren't you? Your parents must just be like, where did he get
Starting point is 00:22:04 this from? What's going on here? I think that I used to say that I was more like my dad because my dad was like the jovial, you know, clown, sort of silly, fun party boy. Was your dad the, not to say your mum wasn't the fun parent growing up, but was your dad the lenient? Yes, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:19 But softer? Yeah. Right. Go talk to your mother was like. Oh, no, see, that was the other way around with us. No, my dad could not discipline to try himself. Oh, yeah. Was he?
Starting point is 00:22:32 He just wanted to have fun. Oh, no. You turned out like you did. Yeah, complete brat. You're a rat bag. Yeah. But I think that I was always like, oh, I'm so like my dad because of that. Because I'm so fun and carefree.
Starting point is 00:22:44 And I'm like, I'm not. I'm very much like my mum. Get a bit highly strung. Yeah. Try to be quite efficient. Like to organise things. And then like a dash of chaos. I mean, it's all happening, right?
Starting point is 00:22:56 I mean, of course it is. That's who raised us. There are worse people to become. Yeah. I was going to say Hitler. It was on the tip of my tongue and then I thought, maybe I won't say Hitler. Unless you are Hitler's child,
Starting point is 00:23:08 then you should try not to become your father because... Oh, you would actively try. Spoiler alert, he's a piece of shit. Yeah, spoiler alert. Bit of a dick. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. We've had a few of these now and she still doesn't have a jingle because she doesn't get a jingle for Shannon's hacks until she gets
Starting point is 00:23:25 five stars max for Shannon's hacks. Now Shannon, I was away last Monday I believe which was your last hack. Yes. Which received a resounding zero. What was it again? That's how un-unwhelming. I didn't save it as a core memory.
Starting point is 00:23:41 I didn't retain it. It was to scream happy birthday at your newborn every day for a year so it wouldn't cry on its first birthday. Now I've got that. Yeah, I'm going to have to forget that again. So, look, there's a bit of a mountain ahead of you to climb to redeem yourself. You have a dating hack.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Yeah, because, you know, when you go on a first date, you really want to... I don't know. It's been so long. Well, maybe we could go on a first date. Oh, my God. Shannon's flirting so long. Well, maybe we could go on a first date. Oh, my God. Shannon's flirting with me, guys. What do I do?
Starting point is 00:24:08 Appropriate workplace behaviour. Oh, my God. Do I report her? Straight to HR. Okay, carry on, Shannon. Okay. Well, so when you go on a first date, you're trying to impress them,
Starting point is 00:24:16 trying to put your best foot forward. You want them to think you're charismatic and smart. You know, that's really important. So one of the most popular first dates at the moment is escape rooms. I know you guys don't most popular first dates at the moment is escape rooms. I know you guys don't like them. I do, I love escape rooms. I've never done one.
Starting point is 00:24:31 I love escape rooms. I feel like you'd hate it. As an anxious person who just wants to sit at a bar and have a drink. There's not enough margaritas in an escape room for you. They're so fun and one thing is you want to look smart. So what you do for this hack
Starting point is 00:24:46 is before you plan your first date, you go to this escape room and you do it by yourself and you learn all the codes, you figure out all the puzzles and then you take this person there maybe the next week and you're like super smart.
Starting point is 00:25:01 You're onto it. You're figuring everything out and they fall in love with you. Hang on, what about, he said something. Yeah. Lift up that box and have a look underneath.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Yeah. Oh my God, you're so smart, Hayley. I reckon the combinations is definitely seven, two, three and they're like, you're so right. No, you couldn't just jump in there. You can't,
Starting point is 00:25:19 they close the door and you're like seven, two, six, nine. No, you still solve the puzzles but you've got like a front foot in it. And they're just so impressed. And they ask you out on a second date. You get married. You have kids.
Starting point is 00:25:30 You get a better job. And then one day you take your kids back there and on the wall are the photos of everyone that's completed the escape room. And you look and you see that's our first date. And then one row below it, you see the person who'd done it by themselves. And you realise your whole relationship was built by themselves. Well, maybe you...
Starting point is 00:25:45 And you realise your whole relationship was built on a lie. What if you wore a disguise the first time you went? So when they posted on Facebook. Stick on a moustache. Yeah. So you want to start this whole relationship and future based on a lie. Not a lie. Just like your fake best foot forward.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Do you know what? Because you still have to work out the puzzles the time before. So it's not like you're cheating. You're just ahead. Giving yourself a step up. Yeah. This isn't a bad hack. I think it's a terrible first date.
Starting point is 00:26:16 No, it's a fun first date. Your personal taste is fine. Somebody was like, let's go to an escape room. I think it's too intense for a first date. It's too intense. Well, it's not intense if you know all the answers. No, someone's coming in from a gendered point of view.
Starting point is 00:26:27 I reckon most men would hate that they couldn't work out the escape room before their date. Oh, well then they're not the man for me. Yeah, I think,
Starting point is 00:26:34 don't be so insecure. Yeah, if I'm a smart woman. They would hate losing. But you're not losing, you're working together to solve the escape room. Also, Shannon, you're assuming
Starting point is 00:26:43 the first time you went to the escape room you could get out. No, she just found the walk working together to solve the escape room. Also, Shannon, you're assuming the first time you went to the escape room, you could get out. No, she just found the walkie-talkie the whole time. I need another clue. Yeah. Once I did an escape room and I got real tired and I sat on the ground for a bit
Starting point is 00:26:57 and then I saw from my eyeline a clue and I got us out. Purely because I got tired. It was perfect. I don't think this is a bad hack. I'm going to give it two. I'm giving it two. Two's pretty good. We're up from zero.
Starting point is 00:27:10 Okay. I'm going to give it two and a half. Yeah. Mostly because one, they're not cheap, are they? Escape rooms. So you're already going, you're double spending. It would be wild to go to an escape room by yourself. Yeah, that's embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Maybe you could take a friend. Yeah, but then you're bringing someone into your lie. What if they're giving the speech on your wedding day to this person and the whole time in your heart you're like, she's going to say. You're running the risk of going back to the escape room and the person says, oh, you're back. No, I would tell them.
Starting point is 00:27:40 You shut your mouth. I'm bringing someone back on a date and I need all the answers. I need to look sly. I look good. Yeah, they could say I'm bringing someone back on a date and I need all the answers. I need to look sly. I look good. Yeah, they could say, oh my God, you're back. Oh no, you don't want to do the escape room
Starting point is 00:27:49 you've already done. That would be a mess. Yeah, yeah. Why are you doing the same one, girl? Yeah. I'm 2.6 actually. I've raised my score. 2.6.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Why'd you go up a point? Stars out of five. Because I think, actually I'm comparing it to previous Shannon's hacks. Right. Which honestly. Have been atrocious. Yeah previous Shannon's hacks. Right. Which honestly. Have been atrocious. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:07 It's just been terrible. I'd go two, just because I like escape rooms. Okay. Yay. You're on the rise, Shannon. I reckon we'll give an average of what, 2.3 for that hack? 2.3. Yay.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Thank you. She's on her way. It would be less than 2.3. Look at our baby bird fly. It would be less than 2.3. This is why you suck at escape rooms. You couldn't even look at the average of 2, 2, than 2.3. Look at our baby bird fly. It'll be less than 2.3. This is why you suck at escape rooms. You couldn't even work out the average of 2, 2 and 2.6. Because we're being margaritas at the bar across the road.
Starting point is 00:28:32 It was episode one of season five of Taskmaster, starring yours truly last night. Lots of laughs in our house when we watched it. Great stuff. I went to bed. Yeah, that's good. But I'm always good to support your friends. I'm watching it TVNZ On Demand, or whatever they call it. Plus. Plus. I went to bed. Yeah, that's good. But I'm always good to support your friends. I'm watching it
Starting point is 00:28:45 TVNZ On Demand or whatever they call it. Plus. Plus. TVNZ Plus. So that's the digital that you're contributing to the digital ratings.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Yes. Versus the traditional terrestrial broadcast. Yeah, great. Which doesn't actually help a show like that survive but it's great. Now,
Starting point is 00:29:01 it was brought to my attention. I had some lovely messages on Instagram from people saying they were watching and whatnot. And, uh, one of my followers who I can assume her name is Lauren cause it's, uh, Loz. Oh, yep. Okay. Now shout out to Loz who has brought to my attention that something I was disappointed
Starting point is 00:29:18 didn't exist now exists. Can I just send it to the group chat? I made comment a while ago that no one had written erotic fan fiction about me. Oh, my God. Okay. And now. Oh, no, Hayley, I've just read the tags. Because we spoke about this with Taskmaster Jeremy Wales.
Starting point is 00:29:38 He said that some of the fans. Get so carried away. Get so carried away that they write the fan fiction. They write fan fiction. They do artwork of you. And someone has written a fan thing. This is hot off the press. This is a 697 word,
Starting point is 00:29:55 so short story, erotic fiction. Yeah. It's got so far on this website, one kudos, 15 hits. Yeah. Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:30:06 It comes with tags. Don't read them. Character tags, Hayley Sproul, Jeremy Wells. So that sounds like a little one-on-one. And the additional tags, which give you the sort of trigger warnings of what could be in this. Yeah. So it's called, the name of the short story, the fan fiction,
Starting point is 00:30:24 is called The Audition. You're playing romantic music. There is nothing romantic about this. Now, I will read some of what it is that says this person. Okay, Vaughn's on the floor. So I'll see how I can go. I don't want the listeners to miss out. I feel we should link to this.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Oh, you can't. On our story. I feel we should link to this. Oh, with a big... Trigger warning. Big not for everybody. Okay, the opening sentences are... I say this with respect.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Every time I catch a word and then I'm like, oh, okay, that's a dirty word. And then I read the sentence, it makes me feel a little giddy. I say this with love and respect to Jeremy Wells. He had nothing to do with writing this. Nor is this the process of how I obtained the job on Taskmaster. It's called the audition. It starts, it starts.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Listen, Hayley, Jeremy said, interrupting her audition. If you really want to be on Taskmaster, you're going to have to do more than just read lines. You're going to have to prove that you're willing to go the extra mile. Hayley had heard rumours about the show's host demanding favours from the contestants, but she had never believed them. Now here she was, faced with the possibility of having to sleep with Jeremy Woods
Starting point is 00:31:47 to earn her spot on the show. Oh, you'd be absolutely upset about that. I want to know how Ben Hurley got his spot on the show then. Devastated. What do you mean, Hayley asked, trying to keep her voice steady? Jeremy leaned back in his chair and smiled. I mean that if you want to be on Taskmaster, you're going to have to perform for me. And I don't just mean, I mean full on.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Hayley's eyes widened in shock. This really paints Jeremy as some sort of predator. Yeah. She'd never even considered having before, let alone with someone she's just met. His commanding presence, da-da-da-da. It talks about her heart racing as Jeremy stood up and began undressing. She'd always been attracted to tall, serious
Starting point is 00:32:27 men and Jeremy fit the bill perfectly. His muscular body was lean and toned. His mmm, mmm, mmm. Jeremy approached Hayley, his eyes dark with desire. Take off your clothes, he commanded. It goes on and on.
Starting point is 00:32:43 It does go on, doesn't it? It ends, Hayley looked up at him, her eyes shining with gratitude. Thank you, she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Jeremy smiled down at her. No, thank you. That was incredible.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Hayley grinned, felt more confident and empowered than she had in years. She'd just proven that she was willing to do whatever it takes to achieve her dreams. Even if it meant submitting to the demands of a dominant man as she walked out of the audition room, her body still tingling
Starting point is 00:33:05 with pleasure she knew she had just earned her spot on Taskmaster New Zealand well be careful what you wish for because you just literally said days ago
Starting point is 00:33:14 there's no fan fiction about me no guys I can't believe after all these years no one's written any fan fiction about me and now they have and it's quite weird
Starting point is 00:33:22 it's full on Fletch is yet to see the details of what Jeremy Wells and this Haley Sproul creature got up to. We'll share that off air. But thank you to this anonymous author who wrote this. And if you didn't catch last night's first
Starting point is 00:33:37 episode of Taskmaster. It's on again tonight. Yeah, on again tonight and you can catch up TVNZ Plus as well. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Haley. Yeah, on again tonight, and you can catch up TVNZ Plus as well. Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Silly Little Pole Today's Silly Little Pole. What's hotter, skiing or snowboarding? Why do we talk about this? I think I, did I say, I said something, eh?
Starting point is 00:34:16 And then I was like, snowboarding's definitely hotter. Because I think it's one because I've tried both. I'm not a skier. I'm not a snow person. Yep. But skiing, you can kind of get that hang of
Starting point is 00:34:27 slowly but surely. Snowboarding is one of the most near impossible things I've ever attempted. Shannon said we were theorising about what Jason Momoa did in the snow
Starting point is 00:34:35 at Queenstown. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my God. But he'd definitely be a snowboarder. He'd be a snowboarder. He's got his shirt off. He's got his shirt off
Starting point is 00:34:42 on socials today. That's not in Queenstown though. That's a pre-recorded piece. It is pre-recorded. It looks like Hawaii. But sorry. That went into the microphone. So what I've got here is the percentage between skiing and snowboarding.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Zero feedback. We're currently locked out of our Instagram account. Have we been hacked? Do we just Haley need to send nude photos again to that person? No, that's the problem. It was the nipples. There was too many nipples on our Instagram. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:35:15 We were going to do a rank the show nipples. Yeah, we were. Where was I going to see? I had to send it to the Instagram to get it up. I had to tag the Instagram. Yeah, unfortunately. It's unfortunate. Yeah, we've been locked out because of your nipples.
Starting point is 00:35:28 This is gender politics. It's ridiculous. 86% of people said snowboarding was hotter than skiing. That's the biggest one-sided poll. Skiing's definitely made a comeback, though. Skiing used to be like rich nerds. Yeah, rich nerds. Old white nerds.
Starting point is 00:35:41 What about some big Nordic man, Hayley, doing the ski jump at the Olympics? But even those little dero freestyle skiers. It's pretty rad. They're pretty athletic and pretty acrobatic. Yeah, definitely. I mean, they're both great sports. But if I was to go hotness alone, if I'm on the slopes, I'm going snowboarding. It's cooler.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Also, they take all their gear off and then they've been hiding a minger all along. I know, and they're so like, oh, they're like skinny and you're like, oh my God, you looked massive before. What happened? Can you snowboard, Vaughn? Yes. Wow.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Hot. You just got so much hotter. And you're wearing a high-vis. Nobody keeps... By the way, I've been sent some more high-vis. I'm loving this influx of high-vis. Oh, God. Vaughn keeps breaking his wrists, though.
Starting point is 00:36:26 He's very fragile. My wrist. No, but when did you get pulled off the mountain on the... Oh, how embarrassing. On the snow ambulance. Oh, no, that was... I just smashed my face into the ground. Couldn't see anything for a second.
Starting point is 00:36:39 But it's snow. It was icy. It's soft. It was icy. It's literally like a cloud. I'm going to ride down in the ski patrol. It's snow. Hello.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Fletch, do you eat hot chocolates? I eat hot chocolate and do chips in the cafe. That's where I'm at. We're having mulled wine. Yeah, exactly. We're having mulled wine. Maybe we'll take a ride on the cheer lift. Yeah, we go just around and around and then we get a mulled wine.
Starting point is 00:37:01 No, the best mulled wine, the best treat is the one that you've earned. There's a saying here. We've earned it. We drove up that treacherous hill. We put the chains on the wheels. At Kadrona, you go out west to Captain's. Oh, yeah. And there's a little cafe out there and you can have a couple of beers out there.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Yeah, honey, and I know. We've been. We've been there. We've been. How'd you get out there? You've got a snowboard out there. Oh, and a snowmobile. Yeah, we hopped on the back of a handsome man's snowmobile.
Starting point is 00:37:27 That's a hot vehicle. Snowmobile's hot. We should rank hot vehicles to ride, to drive. Oh, yeah. Jet skis. No. No jet skis. How embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:37:38 How embarrassing for you. Yeah. I think it's weird because a snowmobile I think is hot, but maybe because of its rarity. Yeah. But a jet ski, which is technically just a snowmobile on the water. What about a forklift? Okay, we'll see you on Friday.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Okay, let's do this on Friday. Let's do this for final rangers. When you say I can control a forklift, it's ballet. I'm going to put out there for Friday one of those Italian speedboats, you know, that James Bond wouldn't. Oh, yes, yes, yes. And they're standing. They're standing as they drive one hand On the wheel

Like a big ask me anything, ask us anything. A big ask us lesbians anything. And people just inundated them with questions

Starting point is 00:50:56 So I went to a rural high school where my mum was deputy principal, and everyone would be fascinated asking, are you allowed to swear at home or does she make you copy lines from the dictionary? It was always the teachers and principals' kids at schools that were the naughtiest. Yeah, 100% because they were rebellious. No, no they were never.
Starting point is 00:51:18 Were you a naughty, naughty little girl? I wasn't, but every time I went to a party, they would say, does your mum know you're here? I did always feel sorry for the kids that had parents that were teachers at the school, because they'd always get it a bit harder. You'd be like, Miss so-and-so is such a dick.
Starting point is 00:51:34 Sorry, I know it's your mum. Tash, thank you. Maddie, what's your FAQ? Hello. Well, I had scoliosis, and I had surgery that put some rods in my back to make me all straight and gay. Right. And everyone's first question to me when I tell them that is always,
Starting point is 00:51:54 do you get your rods out? Oh. My first question was, do you always beep in the metal detector at the airport? Yeah, I was going to say, do you have to carry something through the metal detector? That's a hot topic as well, but no, it actually doesn't go off. Oh. It's awesome. Wrong metal, eh?
Starting point is 00:52:09 But yet I've got to take my... Great way to smuggle a knife on board. Right, yeah. In your spine. I've got to take out my 120 gram toothpaste, but you've got big, giant, stabby metal rods in your back. It just doesn't seem fair. Because Maddie's not going to sit in the plane, surgically remove the rod, and then kill someone with it.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Maddie, I hate to do this, but do you get the metal rods removed? No, they're there for life. Are they in there forever? Yes, for life. Oh, wow. They must be like a titanium or something then, yeah? Yes, they are, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:41 Rad! I have a friend who snapped his femur and he had to get a rod in there. And it was rose, right, lavender, left. And that's whether you've got a purple rod or a pink rod. Do you know what colour your rod is? I'm going to guess it's definitely just plain silver. Great.
Starting point is 00:52:57 The back's right up the middle sprout. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Green. Wow, okay. Oh, that's fascinating. Yeah, that's fascinating. Wow, thank you for sharing. Some more messages. I always get asked if being a teacher puts me off having kids. Wow. Okay. Oh, that's fascinating. That is fascinating. Wow. Thank you for sharing. Some more messages.
Starting point is 00:53:06 I always get asked if being a teacher puts me off having kids. Yep. Or does it make me want to have them? She said, yeah, I do want to have my own, but it's always a pleasure to give back other people's children. I just won't be calling them Jaden. No. Oh, I hate so many names.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Lots of vets saying the most common question is, how do you handle putting animals down? How do you cope with it? They said that's a question we ask ourselves a lot. Someone said do you just get to sit around and stroke dogs and cats all day? I would because that's what I would do. I'd be like this cat is so cute. I can't believe people are still asking
Starting point is 00:53:38 redheads if the curtains match the drapes. Now come on. The curtains are the drapes. The carpets match the curtains. Oh sorry yeah. Do the curtain.

Starting point is 00:54:24 Yeah, I was going to say monkeys. Monkeys would rip your face off. I always get asked if my eyelashes are real. Oh yeah? Apparently it looks like I have extensions, but they're all natural. Oh, I bet you hate having to say that. Our friend Dr. Sean has messaged me. Can you look at my rash?
Starting point is 00:54:40 Oh, okay. Well, that feels targeted and pointed at Hayley Sproul. It does. Well, what use was all pointed at Hayley Sproul. It does.

Starting point is 00:55:36 either. Are you doing a thing? Don't be mad at us. Why? We need you to put on this. Oh, for fuck's sake. We've got a blindfold for you. Is this why Shannon... Okay, Shannon messaged me privately and said,
Starting point is 00:55:55 Hey, Hon, we're filming some videos for socials. Do you want to put some makeup on? And I said, nah, babe, I'm raw-dogging it today. I don't give a shit. Why? What's happening? Put on the blindfold because we have a secret interview and a secret guest coming into the studio. But I, hang on.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Okay. Now, it's somebody that you've never interviewed before. Oh, no, guys. What if it's, no, what are you doing? Why? Who? This is. no, guys, what if it's, no, what are you doing? You know, I, do you know, why, who? This is, no, what is it? Hayley's been trying to, like, leave the studio to go and do stuff. I'm busting to wee.
Starting point is 00:56:37 What is, I was like, I already want to get a coffee. And we're like, no, stay, stay, you've got to stay. You've got to stay. Who is it? Stay right here. What kind of, like, what kind of, I'm trying to think of, like, what category of surprise it would be. Remember how you really liked puppies and cats? And you were like, I really, and then there was the band put on,
Starting point is 00:56:55 Cats and Dogs. Oh, no, I'll cry. In the building. Yeah. And, well, we've got a special exemption. Now, Vaughan, could you get the headphones there? Why would the kittens need headphones? Well, the kittens like to be able to hear.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Oh, if I take off this blindfold and there's not kittens in my hands, I'm going to be annoyed. I can hear the door opening. Okay. The door's opened. Grab a seat, yeah. If it's Jason Momoa holding a kitten, I'm just going to absolutely lose my mind. It's close.
Starting point is 00:57:23 What? Would you like to take your eye mask off? No, because now I don't know who's next to me and I don't know what's happening. Can you feel a presence? I don't know. I'm prepared. Okay, hang on.
Starting point is 00:57:39 Ladies and gentlemen, we are joined in studio by Stephen Adams. Good morning. Hello, hello. Good morning. Welcome Adams. Good morning. Hi, Stephen. Hello, hello. Good morning. Welcome. Morning, morning. Hi, Stephen.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Hello. Hi. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. Oh, my God. Hand shakes all around. Size of his hand, sorry. Dude, I've got to say, first off, this jacket you're wearing,
Starting point is 00:57:56 we're on the radio, so if people can't see it, we'll put it in the video, but this jacket rules. Thanks, mate. What's the story with it? No, just seeing it, it looks pretty dope. It's warm. Yes! I just saw it and it looked dope and it was warm. It's the best reason to buy a jacket.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Hi, Stephen. I don't mean to be full on, but I'm feeling full on. Yeah, I like you a lot, Stephen. I think you're a really cool guy. Okay, let's remain calm. Yeah, I'm being really calm. Remain calm. Now, a few reasons why you're back. Because how long have you been back in New Zealand for?
Starting point is 00:58:28 I got in this morning. Did you? Wow, just like that. And straight to see me. That's unbelievable. Dedication, honestly. Stephen, that means the world to me. It's not here to see you.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Only for you. Yeah, I know. I hope you don't know that I'm a Miami Heat girl because I'll just put that to the side. Miami Heat other than you. Okay, that's fair. Yeah. That's fair, we'll take it. So why are you back in New Zealand?
Starting point is 00:58:51 Other than to see me. Other than to see you, I'm doing my basketball camps. Oh yeah. So we've got three of them. So you do those in Dunedin, Porirua and Auckland? Yeah. Are those the three places? Yeah, that's the one. Which is the best region for basketball? It's hard to say because, I mean, there's talent. If you're going by talent, it's hard to choose.
Starting point is 00:59:09 There's always these small pockets and whatnot. But the camps that we're doing now, it's all about fun, just having fun, basketball. And we get good turnouts, good crowd, good families, good kids. So it's all fun. Because I went to a basketball camp when I was a kid. Yes, Stephen, I wet my pants at the camp. I didn't want to bring it up, but here we are.
Starting point is 00:59:28 Is that happening at any of these all games? It is a core memory for me. I went to a basketball camp when I was a kid because my brother's really tall and I was tall and so my mum was like, basketball. And we went to this camp and I remember sitting on the ground. I was really young, so it's absolutely fine that this happened. And I remember sitting on the ground and them giving us the instructions for the day
Starting point is 00:59:48 and me being like, I need to pee. But, you know, when you're a kid, you just like don't say anything. And so I just peed my pants. Why are you telling this story, Hayley? This is a story I probably wouldn't have told. No, I wouldn't have. And at the end, they were all like, all right, up you get, go get your bags. We're going to head into the day.
Starting point is 01:00:07 And I remember I just sat there and my beautiful brother was like, have you packed your bags? And he sorted it out. So that's one story that we'll cut. And the second one is, for some reason, I grew up believing that that camp was run by Shaquille O'Neal. It wasn't.
Starting point is 01:00:25 It was probably just a man with dark skin. It might have. It definitely wasn't Shaquille O'Neal. It must be like a good feeling for you, kind of a way to give back and see the up-and-coming talent and give kids a chance to get involved. Yeah, it's mainly just that, bro, just accessibility, just to play the games.
Starting point is 01:00:42 And again, these camps are just about the fun aspect of basketball. Is there an age limit on the camp? Yeah, yeah. It's pretty, I mean, it's still young. I think we're doing... Thank you for gesturing to me when you said young. Just get in the boat, Foxy. Get it all back.
Starting point is 01:01:00 But it's a wide range. We get all the mini-ball hoops out. Oh, cool. Was there anything like that when you were a young fella? Not that I was aware of, no. So how did you find yourself playing basketball? Was it through school? Yeah, typically through school, especially my family,
Starting point is 01:01:16 because we're a tall family, so naturally we're pushed towards basketball anyway. Your family is many things as well as tall. Profoundly talented. Ridiculous. And also, yeah, my is many things as well as tall. Profoundly talented. Ridiculous. And also, yeah, my brothers played basketball
Starting point is 01:01:28 as well. So, yeah, it's kind of been in the family and that. Where do you fit in the rankings like age wise in your family?
Starting point is 01:01:34 I'm the youngest. You're the youngest. That must be good being better than your big brothers. Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:41 It's all right for the youngest to be like, I'm the best at basketball in the family. Yeah. But it's just,. Yeah, it's all right for the youngest to be like, I'm the best at basketball in the family. Yeah. But it's just like the age range is so vast that you can't really prove it. You know, I mean, I did make the NBA or whatever.
Starting point is 01:01:54 Yeah, I was going to say none of them have proven it. I was going to say you're the best. But like it is those things. Like sometimes you play one-on-one against like family members. Yeah. And they'll win. Oh, wow. Because it's just like it's a different game. It's not like a full NBA game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's kind against like family members. Yeah. And they'll win. Oh, wow. Because it's just like, it's a different game.
Starting point is 01:02:05 It's not like a full NBA game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like kind of like different rules. Because you're known for, what's the move that you do when it's like a two thing and then you're the wall? Oh, screening? Yeah, screening. Like, does it hurt when people are just slamming into you
Starting point is 01:02:20 or you're just like, whatever? No, not really. Because like, they're not like Islander boys. Yeah, right. You know what I mean? If you slammed into you, you were just like, whatever? No, not really, because they're not like Islander boys. Yeah, right. If you slammed into you, you'd be like, oh, God. Screening New Zealand players, like some of the Islander boys, because they have rugby background, they know how to run through contact.
Starting point is 01:02:35 Run through a human, yeah. I feel that a lot. I feel that it's very different from, say, over there where they'll give up on the screen. Yeah, right. You know what I'm saying? So, first day back in New Zealand today, is there anything you miss and that you, as soon as you get back, have to have? Yeah, it's just any of the food, bro.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Just miss the food. And even just stepping off the plane, just taking in the air and just seeing the views. It's just amazing. It's really nice to be back. And also, you're launching a product while you're back in New Zealand. Your breakfast. Yeah, yeah. God, you guys are really, you're launching a product while you're back in New Zealand. You're Breakfast. Yeah, yeah. God, you guys are really prepared for this interview, aren't you?
Starting point is 01:03:08 It's like it was planned all along without me knowing. I think so, yeah. You were just blindfolded. It is real exciting. I thought you were a kitten. Quite the opposite. Meadow Fresh, quick break here. I actually was walking around the supermarket at the weekend
Starting point is 01:03:20 and saw your face adorning these. Yeah, yeah. So get prepared for that. You're all over the supermarket. Oh, my God, what a shame. What a terrible thing to see when you're out doing groceries. I've got two small daughters, and they go through, like, three litres of milk every other day.
Starting point is 01:03:35 So what was it like in your family? How much milk was it going through? We went through a lot. Did you have a house cow? I was going to say, did I have a house cow? That was, like, lit. Please. The family, let me live. Please. The family, they've taken too much.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Oh, my God. A skeletal house cow. Kill me, just shoot me. What, did you have those multiple jugs of milk? Yeah, all I remember, yeah, growing up, our fridge would be stocked. I think it was probably 10 litres, 10 litres of milk. Yeah, the two litres. At any given time.
Starting point is 01:04:03 What is Christmas like? I mean surely there's not room for one more one more what? human being if I was just wandering around
Starting point is 01:04:12 lost at Christmas surely there would be a plate available for a passerby yeah it's it's competitive yeah that's right I'm very competitive
Starting point is 01:04:21 I'm also an elite sports person but I don't want to get into it but I am a marching girl and I've traveled the world with it as well. So I can relate to you and your family on many, many different ways. Don't laugh, Stephen. You're fitting.
Starting point is 01:04:34 You're fitting. It is a genuine sport, and I am at the top of my game. Oh, is that marching? Yeah. Do you know marching? Yeah. Is that? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:42 Are you going to say? Were you literally? I literally saw his mouth. Is that a real? No, that's good. Yeah. Are you going to say were you literally I don't know who saw his mouth but is that a real No, that's good. Yeah, it is. Well, all in time it's a thing.
Starting point is 01:04:52 So when are the basketball camps happening? The 8th, 10th and the 14th. Yeah. Amazing. Well, I can't wait to attend.
Starting point is 01:05:00 No, 8 to 14 year olds. Ah. You're out. Just? Only by 20 years. Yeah, only just. I'm an actor. I'm an actor. I'm out. Just? Only by 20 years. Yeah, only just. Yeah, just. I'm an actor.
Starting point is 01:05:06 I've got a performance. I'm an actor for the pants wedding thing. Yeah, if I come along, maybe it would be a nice healing moment for me to attend a basketball camp and not pee my pants. That would be wonderful. Yeah, it would be. Stephen Adams, thank you so much for popping in.
Starting point is 01:05:18 No worries, mate. The giant Stephen Adams has just left the building. Dude had to duck to get in and out of the door and the elevator. When he shook my hand, his hand is like three of my hands. Yeah. And he did the same where he shook my hand and then put his other hand on the other
Starting point is 01:05:38 side of my hand and I felt like someone had put my hand in a panini press. Like a whale's mouth. He's so lovely too. So lovely. Are we great friends? You're such good friends. Do you know what's terrible though?
Starting point is 01:05:50 I've needed to pee for so long. And then you're like, you can't leave. You can't leave. You can't go. And then we got some photos together and now I'm here still busting away and like very frantic. Was I cool? Yeah, you were real cool.
Starting point is 01:06:03 No. Okay. Well, Shannon has put up the video. I'd say it's up there it's for Jason Momoa level. I felt similar. Yeah, not remaining cool. Seeing these beings in the flesh is
Starting point is 01:06:15 something else. Because for those that don't know, obviously people know about your fascination with Jason Momoa. They've seen that video. Yeah, Stephen's my other one. Stephen Adam is your other one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Has she got a type? It does appear like that video. Yeah, Stephen's my other one. Stephen Adam is your other one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:07:22 I just made a cheeky stir fry. Right. Because I'm doing this thing. And it takes me a bit of a time at the moment because I'm sort of like, you know, calculating everything for my nutritionist. And I just had a chicken stir fry. Lots of vegetables, some white rice, chicken.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Yeah. Say two. Like, that's it. And I... Was it goop? No goop. Did you put in some like... No, no.
Starting point is 01:07:44 No goop. Oh, what in some like No goop. Oh what a It wasn't in the program. I put soy sauce and I put a tiny bit of chilli flakes and that was sort of and a bit of lime juice.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Oh no. I'm struggling. Anyway it was fine. So I made this lame stir fry and I ate it and then it was like an instant
Starting point is 01:08:02 you know when your glands start to go like when you're going to be sick. Oh yeah. And you get that like nauseous feeling and then it was like an instant, you know when your glands start to go like, when you're going to be sick? Oh yeah. And you get that like nauseous feeling and I had this like nausea in my like upper stomach and I was like, oh that's not good. And I suddenly felt like these waves
Starting point is 01:08:16 of I'm going to throw up. And I was like maybe, surely it's not the dinner right? Because. I thought it took a while. Too quick. That really annoys me when people eat something and instantaneously be like, I've got food poisoning. It's like, you wouldn't know. You wouldn't know.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Because the bacteria's got to get into the stomach and multiply to the point where it overthrows everything, right? I mean, it was a little bit after. But yeah, I started feeling really gross. But I put so much effort into the sort of calculation of this meal that I had Aaron sat to the side. And I was sitting there trying not to throw up as I saw him walk in with his bowl.
Starting point is 01:08:47 And rather than just being like, I wouldn't eat it, it didn't make me feel good, just watched him hoon it down. What, because you didn't want to cook another meal for the man? Well, because he'd been working on the house till late and I knew that, you know, like I wanted to make him dinner
Starting point is 01:09:02 because he'd been working on the house. So I knew if he was like, oh, I don't want to eat this if it's made you feel crock, that I'd then be like, oh God, now I've got to get up and make something too. So I was like, well, if I've got food poisoning, you can get food poisoning too. So I watched him eat that and then he felt all right.
Starting point is 01:09:14 How many toilets in the new? Uno. Yeah, great. Uno toiletos. Someone's doing the old poo and spew in the shower, are they? No, well, the shower's in with the toilet. Thumbing it down the plug hole. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:25 Hey, we've all been there., the shower's in with the toilet. Thumbing it down the plug hole? Yeah. Towing it in. Hey, we've all been there. We've all been there, but rough. I've Googled how long for symptoms, for food poisoning, two to six hours. Yeah, okay. So it wasn't that. And it said it may be longer or shorter,
Starting point is 01:09:38 so it can't have been that. Oh, I guess this is a soft pregnancy announcement then, isn't it? Oh, congratulations. No, definitely not. But I did. I felt really, really crook. And I sort of, just like the sweats and like that kind of gross,
Starting point is 01:09:52 like running thing. And I went to a bed with a hottie on my tummy. Okay. And then I woke up and it was fine. It was gone. Don't look skinny. That's always the thing. That's what we always hope for after a bout of sickness
Starting point is 01:10:05 Always after the spews I'll get a slightly soft stool for a couple of days And then I'll look in the mirror and I'll be like come on God damn Come on Come on It's not done nearly enough Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley

Starting point is 01:12:33 I'm going to say it's some kind of, what year was this? 1968 at the Mexico City Olympics. Marijuana. I'm going to say some kind of amphetamine to keep him awake. I'm going to say marijuana to keep karma's nerves because it was 1968. It was beer. He drank beer prior to pistol shooting and it is a banned substance because it relaxes your nerves.
Starting point is 01:12:52 Alcohol, ethanol technically is the banned substance. Right. It lowers your heart rate. So then you can be karma with the hand. Still a hand for the pistol shooting. Oh, wow. Also, like, not great to have a beer and then hold a gun. No.
Starting point is 01:13:08 Regardless of what you're shooting at. Yeah. That's sort of a generally agreed upon. Generally we agree. Generally agreed upon. I don't have the exact words of the thing because I don't know if you guys caught it just before I said Wikipedia crashed. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Wikipedia won't load. All right. But I went through the history of doping at the Olympic Games. I caught it just before I said Wikipedia crashed. Yeah. Wikipedia won't load. All right. But I went through the history of doping at the Olympic Games. He was the first and only at that first one. But then it's kind of like that was the landslide. I don't know if testing got better or from there on out. Tell you what decade do you reckon was the biggest?
Starting point is 01:13:38 90s. Yeah. 90s was massive for doping. Everyone was getting jacked up, wanted to be faster, bigger, stronger. Yeah. Yeah. And they started busting different sorts of, because obviously after the 90s,
Starting point is 01:13:51 where they're like, these are the ones we can catch. Then everyone started getting a bit sneakier. And they started catching a lot of different ones in the 2000s. Yeah. But the first one ever, in today's fact of the day, is the first person ever disqualified at the Olympics
Starting point is 01:14:02 for testing positive for a banned substance was a shooter at the 1968 Olympics who had a couple of beers. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- an ex. Or like some revenge. A bit of revenge. Okay. There is a woman she shared on TikTok, if you ever want to have get some petty revenge on someone steal their microwave plate. That actually rules. The glass thing that spins around. Doesn't that rule?
Starting point is 01:14:59 Steal the microwave plate. And then you've got a spare one. Oh yeah, nah, you'd have to have the same microwave to have the same one. Who cares what you do with it? Oh, my God. Okay, so you can get one on Teemu for $15.99. Yeah, but it might not be the same.
Starting point is 01:15:12 Trade Me. Apparently, they're universal, a lot of them. A Y-type. You know those three? Yep, yep. I was about to say. And annoying, though. You can get them for anywhere between $15, $16 to $20.30.
Starting point is 01:15:24 But how annoying. And you won't know either. You won't know until you need it. You go to the microwave and you've got to put your soup in or something and you're like, hang on a second. Because it has to turn around for it to work. Because if you ever microwave something and that plate's come off. Wait, we're about to hear it. Wait.
Starting point is 01:15:39 We're about to hear about your microwave that doesn't need to rotate. No, mine rotates. Oh, because my parents have got a microwave that doesn't rotate no more. So does our parents. No, mine you can do metal in and it grills. Oh, that's what you're... And it's built into the kitchen. I think yours might not spin as well.
Starting point is 01:15:50 No, no, it spins. It spins. But they don't spin anymore. Does that mean it's not cold in the middle? Because that was to like get it all kind of evenly, whereas now they're a bit more advanced. But this is so good. And then you're going to see it, right?
Starting point is 01:16:05 And you're going to go, where is that? You're going to think you've gone to clean it. You're going to go looking for it. It's really putting you out in the pettiest way. I think I'm like you. I wouldn't do that to someone. I don't think I'm petty. I didn't say that.
Starting point is 01:16:18 You just said... I didn't say that. And in fact, watch your back. Watch your back, little bitch. Next time I'm over for some drinky poos. That microwave plate's coming home with me. Let's do it. Don't even think about it.
Starting point is 01:16:30 You'll be banned. You'll have a hard ban. A hard 12-month ban. Now, I don't know that I've ever pulled such a petty move, but I've always desired it. You always hear about the people that freeze a fish and then grate it through the back of someone's car so you can never get the smell out.
Starting point is 01:16:44 Have you heard that? Yeah. I mean, some people deserve it. Some people do deserve it. They might have been a cheater, cheater pumpkin eater. They could have been, in which case they deserve it. But I still don't know if someone cheated on me if I would grate a fish in their car.
Starting point is 01:16:57 But you would steal their microwave plate. Now I might steal their microwave. Just to screw with their head. This is what I want to know and get some calls and texts in for is what was your petty revenge move? Like the pettier the better. How you got back at someone in such a small way. Imagine stealing someone all of their pegs.
Starting point is 01:17:14 Yeah, that'd suck. What an inconvenience. I remember... What a horrendous image. This is when I was 19 years old. This is so childish and so gross. I think I was like 18 or 19 years old and my friends lived
Starting point is 01:17:27 in a flat and my friend went there and her boyfriend lived in this flat and he didn't cheat or something but he'd been a dick. We went into his bedroom and we covered his whole bed in, I'll say it, stolen real estate signs and then she got his
Starting point is 01:17:43 towel that was on the back of his door and wiped her bum on it. Really? Jane Sproul? What had he done to deserve this? She wiped her bum with his towel and then we hung it back and was like,
Starting point is 01:17:55 we're going. And I was like, that was a great move. Was it a dirty bum? Well, it was just your bum. Oh, but bums touch towels all the time. Every time I got out of the shower, the bum went up.
Starting point is 01:18:04 Yeah, but that's what I mean. It was petty. It wasn't actually really going to. Yeah, we'd been out and about. She's been out and about. Okay. Her bum had been out and been out and been a little bit sweaty. Well, let's take some calls.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Have you ever done something petty or vindictive? Your petty payback. It doesn't have to be a romantic lover either. No. Oh, no. You could do it to your brother or sister. Anybody that has wronged you. Or just like a flat to be a romantic lover either. No. You could just do anybody that has wronged you. Or just like a flatmate that keeps stealing your food. Yeah. And so you poison some food in the fridge.
Starting point is 01:18:31 Okay, well, we just want to do petty. Oh, sorry. Not crime. Not crime. Not criminal activity. We don't want what we've presented as Exhibit A at a murder case. Yeah, exactly. I'll wait a hundred thousand minutes.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Give us a call. You can text through 96... Can I give an example? Yeah, exactly. 0800 DARS at Amazon number. Give us a call. You can text through 9696. Can I give an example? Yes. A flatmate removed all the labels on the tin cans in the cupboard
Starting point is 01:18:50 before they moved out. Petty. Fantastic. Every dinner you're opening it up being like, what is it? I guess they're having
Starting point is 01:18:56 creamed corn again tonight. Sorry. 0800 DARS at Amazon number. Text through 9696.
Starting point is 01:19:03 They're coming in thick and fast. We want to know what was your petty payback move? Because there is a woman on TikTok who recommends stealing someone's microwave plate as a petty way of getting them back. Look, maybe you're not proud of it now. Oh, there's a lot in here that they shouldn't be proud of. A lot in here.
Starting point is 01:19:21 There's some insane messages that I don't even want to read. I know, some of them are like... Because I don't even want to read. I know. Some of them are like... Because I would hate to give other people ideas. Okay. On our split, he demanded the cowhide bean bags. Yep. Oh, they're expensive.
Starting point is 01:19:34 They'll last. I buried a whole frozen fish bait fish. We're talking a bonito, an oily bonito. Okay. Amongst the beans in each bag. A slow-release stench. That is so good. You'd know.
Starting point is 01:19:49 And the beans, you could get rid of the beans. You've got to get rid of them. And then the beans, you'd always be finding the beans. Yeah. Oh, wow. That's a nightmare. Tori, what was your pity revenge? Well, my husband plays rugby, and I can't remember.
Starting point is 01:20:05 It was a long time ago, but he left his gym bag, and he annoyed me so much, typical rugby guy. And I got his protein, mixed it with water, and he tipped it all through his bag. Ew! Well, I added his penis controllers as well. Wait, your current husband? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:27 There's been a few of these, but it was probably our biggest one. Right, so you're just teaching him a lesson. It was just a lesson. It wasn't like a payback. It was a... Tori's unhinged. So, Tori, was he like, oh, what have you done that for? Or was he like, oh, no, the lid came off my protein juice?
Starting point is 01:20:45 No, well, we still hadn't talked for a few days, so technically he didn't see it for like two or three days. Oh, yuck, protein. And by then I had curdled. Yuck. Nothing worse. We've all opened a protein shaker and it's gone. I think he'll never leave you because he'll be too scared of what you do.
Starting point is 01:21:00 What you'll do. He knows that that's what I'm like, so it's fine. That is. And I love hearing from our listeners with healthy relationships. Yeah, me too. I love our crazy listeners. He needs to put his bag away and get rid of his protein shaker. I think it was something really stupid.
Starting point is 01:21:15 It was like he'd stayed out too long or he hadn't put his crap away. I don't know, but it was very petty. I look back and it's funny. I love it. Brilliant. I love it. Tori, thank you. Anonymous has called us.
Starting point is 01:21:25 Anonymous, what was your petty payback? This is ongoing payback, hence why I'm anonymous. Okay. I send adult diaper sample packs to my ex. Adult diaper sample packs. Yeah. So you can, there's so many websites that they'll just send out a free sample pack. Oh, wow. Okay. For like trial purposes. I'm totally abusing that, but you can, there's so many websites that they'll just send out a free sample pack. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:21:45 For like trial purposes. I'm totally abusing that, but you pay for shipping. So it's not 100% free. You're still paying, you're paying to have these sent to your ex. It's not much, honestly. It's worth it. It's 100% worth it because he has no idea why he's getting adult diapers sent to him. Fantastic.
Starting point is 01:22:07 And, like, you can't get quite big. You can't just really throw it out inconspicuously. He lives with other people. I imagine that he's just got a stash of adult diapers in his wardrobe that someday some new chick will find and be like, dude. Yes. Yeah, he's going to bring a date around and she's going to be like, I'm just going to look for a jumper. I'm cold. Oh, my God. Genius. Yeah, he's going to bring a date around and she's going to be like, I'm just going to look for a jumper, I'm cold. Oh my God, genius. Yeah, and then find the adult diapers.

Because then they go to use the microwave and they're like, oh, where do you get one of those from? This is so unhinged, these messages. I know.
