Was it nice going the speed limit for a change? I got into the car this morning. Yeah, it was nice. Slow drive. Got in the car this morning.

Do you know what he was playing? The Rasmus in the shadows. Oh, really? It was right on. We've got a 2000s playlist going on. Yeah, yeah. It was a vibe, man. I love that.

It's my playlist called Bands from the 2000s that we never heard from again. Ever. What was the other big Rasmus song that was up for debate in the car? Because I said have they ever done another one? No, they hadn't. I've been watching, I've been waiting in the shadows. On the show today, the man who played at Laneway yesterday. Joe.

Joe. Joe Carey. Joe Carey from Stranger Things. How exciting. After 8 o'clock this morning, we chatted to Joe. Just our mate Joe. Just as you do. Do you know what I mean? Just our mate Joe. Just as you do. He's been hanging around

loving Auckland. I know, I thought he would have been like at the Grammys, but he's been in Auckland like all week. Yeah, just swimming. He's been lovely. Hanging around. Hanging around. So he's on the show after 8. The top 6 is coming out. It's been lovely. Hanging around. Hanging around. He's on the show after eight. The top six is coming out. There's been a giant theft. 100,000

eggs stolen in Pennsylvania in America. This is right up there with, do you remember that cream egg heist in the UK? Do you remember that? Is that where the guy put nine of them up his bum? No. That was a different story. But he stole, wasn't it the same? It was like tens of thousands of Is that where the guy put nine of them up his bum? No, that was a different story. Is that a different egg story?

No, but he stole, wasn't it the same? It was like tens of thousands of cream eggs. Well, despite Donald Trump promising in his political campaign to bring down the price of eggs, the price of eggs continues to skyrocket in America due to avian bird flu, which it turns out Donald Trump couldn't solve. Yeah. I was sure he was going to.

I thought he was going to solve everything. Everything. Gaza. Yeah. Well, no, he's got a plan for Gaza. I don't know if you heard about that over the weekend, but he just said, don't go back there. Yeah, that's called ethnic cleansing.

You guys should just move out to Egypt and Syria and some of the other places. Anyway, eggs. We can get caught up in that. Well, eggs have been stolen. I've got the top six headline pun opportunities missed in the egg heist. Because this one is real boring. This one's just like 100,000 eggs stolen from Pennsylvania supplier.

Really missing a lot of puns here. Really missing a lot of puns. I don't want to say any because Vaughn gets mad if we... Vaughn gets mad when we start jamming. When we start ruining his top six. We can jam off air and you can give me some sweet ideas and then on air you can laugh like you've never heard them before.

Your segment, we would hate to, we'd hate to, you know, cross the line. I feel for you on this Friday, on this Friday to tread some toes. Soon, still a little poll. We've got the results of today's poll. Do you like speak up if you get bad service or something like,

maybe there's something wrong with the food or like, do you say something? Because Kiwis just don't, we tend not to say anything. Well, my mother does. And then bitch, like. My mother would love to. Of course.

We'll go through the results, but next. There is a Italian radiologist, a doctor, who is in a lot of trouble for something very cute. And I actually, if I had access to what he has access to, I would do the exact same thing. Play ZM's Fleshborn and Hayley. Listen to this name. This is an Italian man. His name is Gianlucia

Fenelli. Like, that's a great Italian name. Do you think if we were in a news article and an Italian radio station was reading out a story about us, would they be like, oh, it's such a Kiwi name. Yeah. Hayley Sproul.

Hayley Sproul. Hayley Sproul. Beautiful. Beautiful. That's what they do. I didn't know you spoke Italian. Thank you. Fluently by the sound of things too. Yes, well, you know, my mother's been learning for years as they live in Italy half the time. So she teaches me things. I could do the whole

break in Italian if you want. Scaradice. Scaradice. so she teaches me things. I could do the whole break in Italian if you want. Rimbana! Scorri metaro, e arrabbata cioncero. Scorri decci, scorri decci. Scorri mosci, fandango. Anyway, so this is Gianlucia Fanelli. He is an Italian doctor.

He's a radiologist. Wait, a radiologist doctors? Yeah. Like the people that do the x-ray machines? No, radiographers. Are they a radiographer? Let me Google. We've talked about this before.

They call them a doctor. Radiographer versus radiologist. Radiographers are allied health professionals who are trained to take medical images. Radiologists are specialist doctors. Ah, okay. Who assist other doctors by making a diagnosis and providing treatment

using medical media. Buongiorno, grazie. Sorry, I'm slipping back in. Sorry. Hello, thank you, is what I said. Now, so this Italian doctor, he is under investigation at the moment for wasting public

money and depriving patients of essential services. Now, that doesn't sound good, does it? No. That's like the opposite of what doctors should be doing. I know. They should be providing services to patients and not wasting public money. So Gianlucia Finelli, he did what any pet lover would do.

His cat, Athena, fell six stories from a balcony. Oh, God. Not good news. Now, cats. They parachute, don't they? They parachute, but they land on their feet. They fight. But this cat was, he said, between life and death.

Oh, wow. So what did he do? He picked up the cat and he took it to the hospital. Okay. And he literally gave it a cat scan. Okay. He gave it a cat scan. But did he give it a cat scan or did he X-ray the cat?

It was a cat scan. He gave it a cat scan. Like the full thing. How did the did he X-ray the cat? It was a CAT scan. He gave it a CAT scan. Like the full thing. How did the cat stay still? Is the CAT scan an MRI? Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if the cat had any metal in its pockets.

Yeah, we'd hate to know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So gave the cat a CAT scan and decided it was life or death. And then he gave it a pneumothoriac surgery inside the hospital in one of their suites. He did the surgery on his own cat. Wow. So he diagnosed its problem and then cut it open, fixed it, and the cat survived. What's he been charged with?

Waste of public money and depriving patients of essential services. So this is his defence, right? He said he's used the equipment after hours when all of the x-rays scheduled for the day had been completed and no other patients were booked in for urgent tests. So he was like, that is not, it's not being used. Yeah. This area of the hospital.

And he said, I'm sorry if this is a violation of the rules, but I did what anyone would do in this situation if they had the skills that I... He said, being a doctor means carrying out a mission. This is what he said. The driving force is precisely the life that flows in the eyes of those who entrust themselves to your care. And he looked in the eyes of the cat

and knew that this cat was going to die if I didn't do anything. He said, I would never be able to give myself, my children adore her. Oh, you can't be mad at this guy. I'm not mad. You'd do it yourself if you had the skills in a CAT scan machine. I told you about the vet.

Our vet took alpaca to a human x-ray thing after hours, eh? No. Sedated them, carried them in, did the x-rays. Was that too big for sort of traditional vet ones? Well, yeah, so it's still under investigation because he didn't technically take away resources from patients. It was fine. Is it a hygiene thing?

But it costs to use the machine, right? Yeah, totally. So that's wasting public money and all that kind of stuff. But he was like, nah. And do you know his wife, whose name is Nicoletta Spalgatti, I mean, absolutely incredible. She's a senator for an Italian party. Oh, okay, so this is a big scandal.

Well, she just said, my husband saved a life, that's it. Oh, yeah. Hard to argue. No further questions, Your Honour. No further questions, Your Honour. Case closed. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley, silly little Here's a silly little poll.

Do you speak up when you aren't happy with the service? This is, I'm assuming, food related? More than just service in general? Yeah, in general. New Zealanders don't tend to do it, but my mum does. I'll eat a hair. Do you know what I mean? I'll just eat a hair.

If I see a hair, I'll just pick it off. Yeah. Like, if it was a plaster, I would absolutely say something. 100% if it was a bug or a food thing or something like raw chicken. Yeah. But other than that I'm picking the hair away and I'm eating it. I don't even like leaving bad

Google reviews so I don't have to look at anybody in the eye. I just don't want my people to be like looking through reviews and being like oh Vaughan Smith. Vaughan Smith, yeah didn't like the burger. Oh yeah. Not because they'd know who I am but just that someone might. It would take something pretty bad to happen for me to write

a negative review. Yes. Even like giving... It doesn't really put me out. Yeah. Like I just don't. Like people are making a living, they're hustling, you know?

Yeah. Sometimes we go for breakfast and what we order, eh, Fletch, is sometimes a little bit undercooked and we always say, oh yeah, let's not order this again. And then yeah,

back we go every fortnight. How was it? Great. Oh my god, literally the best meal I've ever eaten in my life. Holy moly, how'd you cook it so well? I think it's a Kiwi thing though. Yeah, totally. Oh my god, this tastes like absolute vomit. How's your meal? Oh, fantastic. Thank you. Our compliments to the chef.

Do you speak up when you aren't happy with service? 31% of people said yes and you know what that to the chef. Yeah. Do you speak up when you're unhappy with service? 31% of people said yes, and you know what that means? 69%. Nice. Said no. No, they don't. They don't say anything. They suffer in silence.

A server could literally spill my food over my head, and I'd say, everything's great. Thank you so much, said Tyrell. Oh, my God. Do you know what I saw yesterday? We caught up with some friends yesterday, and we ordered some frozen margaritas. Yum.

A girl in jean shorts and a white top was standing in the doorway and the server came around with our frozen margaritas. Shut up. Five of them and spilled them all on her and the floor. It was just like, how long do we have to wait for these frozen margaritas? Yeah. What, are we going to slurp them off this woman? And she just stood there like, the look on we have to wait for these frozen margaritas? Yeah. What, are we going to slurp them off this woman?

And she just stood there like, the look on her face was just like. A white top covered in. So it was like, I think the passion fruit ones were the ones that was, and the mango. But they all wiped off. And in the end, she was all good. Oh, okay. Just like a little bit. Just had some wet patches and wet spots.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just like, oh my God. I mean, it's just a mistake, right? What are you going to do? But I still wouldn't be like, yeah, yeah, one star. They run around corners here

like assholes. I wouldn't even demand that they gave me a free something. I'd just be like, oh no, it's all good. Yeah, I think she was pretty good about it.

Mary said, if it's done politely, it's okay. Because it might make the experience better for the next person. But when I see people rudely talking down at waitstaff, it does my head in. Connor said, only if it's

legitimate poor service and they're being a dick. Not if it's just a slightly overcooked steak or something. Connor, shut your mouth. If they overcook the steak, that's not the steak you asked for. You're not going out and paying a fortune for a steak that's not cooked to your exact recommendation. Fair call. Yeah, I think on a a fortune for a steak that's not cooked to your exact recommendation. Fair call. Yeah,

I think on a steak, if a steak's like grey through and through, I'll be like, yeah. Or when you go out for eggs and they've poached them and the yolk's hard

and you're like, I'll eat a hard yolk. No, see, I'll still eat that because I can't be bothered waiting for them to do it again. I'll eat a hard yolk

if I've got runny whites because then I can't eat it. If it's those like whites. Really undercooked. Really undercooked. I'm always like, oh my God, the eggs are not right.

I'll say I'm pregnant. Yeah. And then I bet, ma'am, you've also asked for extra feta cheese. How dare you question a pregnant woman? How dare you question me?

This is my pregnancy. Bring me another mimosa. Kirstie said, the thought absolutely mortified me when I was younger, but now I'm in my 30s, I don't give a fuck. I'm just telling them

exactly what I think. We've got a little Karen on our hands there, maturing into quite the, yeah, into quite the Karen. Lisa said, I'm a womp.

Does she mean womp? Maybe, yeah. Womp. She spelled it W-H-O-M-P. Wamp. Womp. Yeah, just a wamp. I'm a wamp. I'm a little wamp. Whomp. She spelled it W-H-O-M-P. Whamp. Whomp. Yeah, just a whamp.

I'm a whamp. I'm a little whamp. Whomp. No, that's the verb to whomp is to strike heavily. Or a dull thud sound. Yeah, it's just... I think she means whimp. Yeah.

I think she means whimp. Do we all agree she means whimp? We literally just established that like 10 seconds ago. Do we all agree that she means whimp? I think she's just doing it in a little accent. Like, I'm such a wimp. I'm such a wimp. I'm a whinging pom, says Adam.

We daren't cause a scene, but we will bitch about it forevermore to everyone we know, just not to the person who could have fixed the problem. I think that's who we get it from. The Brits. Jenna said, I will because I am paid and I want to get what I asked for. Yeah, fair enough. Steph, I'm just a people-pleasing, conflict-avoiding, no worries type of gal.

Yeah, I get that. Good on you, Steph. Jodie, I'm more likely to speak up about a product or good rather than a service. I think it's probably a you-don't-know-what's-going-on-for-that-person kind of situation, whereas if it's a product, you can't hurt the product's feelings. Oh, yeah, I'll do that.

Yeah, like a review. Like I bought a soap dispenser that was not cheap and it had a product, you can't hurt the product's feelings. Oh, yeah, I'll do that. Yeah, like a review. Like I bought a soap dispenser that was not cheap. Yeah. And it had a small chip on it. Yeah. And I took it back to the shop and I said, I've bought this purely for aesthetics. And it's got a chip.

And it's got a chip on it. Yeah. And they just replace it. Yeah, I'll do that rather than. For a product. You, I don't like your service. Nairi, Nairi. I've never known.

Nairi. Nairi. Do I roll the R? Is Nairi a Maori namei. I never know. Nairi. Nairi. Do I roll the R? Is Nairi a Māori name? Yeah. By default? N-G-A-I-R-E. Yeah.

Yeah. Nairi. Nairi. Says, how are they supposed to improve their service if they're not told how to improve their service? Yeah. Well, that's the thing. If people aren't telling them.

I think Nairi is actually the Māori translation of Karen. Yeah. It might very well be. That is today's Silly Little Pop. Now, I can't run. I don't know why I've never been able to do it. It's a mental game for me. I get so bored.

I was just about to say, when you say you can't, it's because she has no legs. Yeah. Don't bring it up again. You know that's a sore point for me. Even people with no legs can run. Yeah, they legs. Yeah. Don't bring it up again. You know that's a sore point for me. Even people with no legs can run. Yeah, they can. Yeah, they can also shoot blindly

through a toilet wall and kill their partner. That's right. That's all I'm saying is they can do both. Well, he didn't mean to do it. He thought it was an intruder. Yeah. Anyway, we digress. It's so boring to me.

The most I've ever run is like eight kilometres and I was like that the whole time. I was like, I hate this, I just, it's so boring to me. The most I've ever run is like eight kilometres and I was like that the whole time. I was like, I hate this, I hate this. I'm so bored, I'm so bored, I'm so bored. Yeah, bad mindset. I need stimulation, you know me. So I've never ever considered doing a marathon. This is a half marathon.

So Fletcher, I can bring you into this conversation. You've done that before. Yeah, I have. There is a Danish half marathon where runners, instead of pit stopping at stations to maybe have a little cordial or a little drink of water, you know, the water stations along for a marathon. Well, they have all the electrolyte drinks, don't they?

Like Powerades and Gatorades. Yeah, that's right. In this Danish half marathon, runners pit stop at top bakeries and have pastries. It's called a bun run. Yes. Like how amazing is that? The only thing is sometimes pastries have a lot of butter in them.

I agree. Just eating would be hard. Look at the pastries though. I'm talking top quality. I've been to Danish. Yeah. And their pastries. I've been to Danish. Yeah. And their pastries. I've been to Danish, the country.

Yeah. And their pastries are insane. Like they are so good. But could you eat that? Yes. Halfway through. No. I thought when you, like this would be a good fun run, like a 10K or 5K.

No, 22. You know like they have those runs and you have beers along the way or wines. I don't know how people do that. Just because it's too fizzy. Look at them. They're full of cream. They're like a special, I'm looking them up, they're a special sort of bun. A traditional sweet roll.

A stuff called a various things throughout Scandinavian countries. They're native to Danish. They're known as a Swedish eclair, a fast loglooking splurge, a flushed and left in bowl. But don't you feel like they're going to be shitting themselves the whole way? Do you know what I mean? Definitely. That cream? Look at the cream.

I'm going to tear straight through you. They're also running during the winter, so I suppose it would be nice to have a little treat and they're having a warm little cup of tea with it or something like that. But how, like, you know when you do a half marathon, you get so into it. Oh, sorry. I'll just speak to Vaughan.

Don't speak to me. He literally, sorry, listener, he literally turned his back to me. He turned his back. But you do get into your time. And stomping for a bun, that's going to eat into your splits and your time. When you are just grabbing a little something on the way, it's like water or Coke that's flat or jet planes or something. Yum.

Very little choking hazard. But that big creamy guy, when you go, you get a bit of flaky pastry, you're going to have a little bit of a choking cough. Very buttery flaky pastry. Oh, yum though. But do you know what I mean? Like this would kind of lure me into becoming a runner,

a bun run. If I was running along and just eating pastries the whole time. I could absolutely do that. Do you think the dropout rate would be high? People just get to a couple of these and they're like, you know what, I'll just have a few more and I'll just stop. Because whenever I have a Danish for breakfast, I'm always like, yum, let's have a little sweetie,

and then eat it and I'm like, that's the day ruined. Do you know what I mean? Like the energy, you're like, oh, God, got to carry that weight around in my guts all day. It doesn't really say like, and now run another 10 kilometres. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley.

I will say this is one of the most outrageous seasons of Married at First Sight that I've watched and we're like three episodes in in New Zealand. It is it's just wild. I can't I don't even know where to start. If you know, you know basically. It's so crazy. And if you're not watching it, you should.

There's drama. Form? You should. Oh no I don't. No thanks. We've got a nice week in the head. You don't have any plans? No thanks. I am deciding whether or not I go a night agent next because I just finished American Primeval. Okay. Which was so good.

Sorry. Sorry. I think you've hijacked this break to talk about quality sort of cinematic stuff. Are you familiar with the management theory of a shit sandwich? Yeah. Where you do quality, you put the shit in the middle, then you have another compliment. Well, exactly.

But your sandwich is just quality at the moment. You need a little slice of shit in there. And then talk about another one at the end. You need a little slice of shit. Yeah, American Primeval on Netflix, it was a lot to watch, but it kind of explains it. I always find when you're watching a story about the establishment and the history of America, the settlement of America,

you're kind of like, okay, that makes sense. I'm talking about Married at First Sight Australia. Did they have a Tim? Did they have Tim from Married at First Sight? If you want to see a villain, let me present to you Tim. So listen to this. What I wanted, not good. If I normally go just short, critique, blonde or brunette,

like Katie's, yeah, nothing what normally I'd go for. Shut up, Tim. Blonde or brunette. He's excluded redheads. So Katie's a redhead? Tell me more. Oh, now he's on board. Katie's a curvy redhead.

Tim, where's the problem? Tim. So basically, this is what made turned him into a villain this was his like first clip and this was the one that he begged the producers like please don't air that

I'm a teacher and like I see how this is gonna come across it's not how you're coming across me dude that's what you said yeah as Katie

like what like there was a sweet gorgeous woman comes down the aisle and you see him just being like she's not skinny basically that's what he's saying

it's wild when someone is on a reality tv show and they afterwards are like they really edited that to make me look bad you had to say it you had to say it you had to say it for them to be able to edit it like married at first sight is very good at chopping your sentences together for sure it's like kind of what they're known for it's almost a joke but this you just you just straight up said that yeah so anyway so their marriage is going terribly, shockingly enough. And as a result, online people are chatting. Now there is a Facebook group, which is like one of those like, dude, are we dating the same guy ones?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Where they like share screenshots of guys behaving badly on dating apps and they all come on and be like, oh my God, I've talked to him. A lot of those sites have become problematic as well, haven't they? Oh, very much so. I'm not. I don't encourage them.

But on this, people started talking about this Tim guy and how he used to be on dating sites. Now, he's not currently. That's not the drama. Right. The side of it was people coming and being like, oh my God, yes. Like this guy has said something similar to me when we went on a date

that I wasn't what he liked and all this kind of stuff, that I wasn't short, blonde or brunette and petite. What did he go on a date with? I don't know. But he has been called out for a bit of catfishing. Oh, okay. One woman said, I went on a date with him and he turned up and I was like, oh dude, like you were straight up catfishing.

Your photos are at least 10 years old on this thing. Oh, okay, yeah. It's like how I'm going to use my passport photo for 10 years. I'm almost catfishing security customs. By being like, I'm this beautiful still. And they'll be like, ah. Yeah. So, yeah, people were like, he turned up looking very different from his pictures.

And... Like, 10 years difference is a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Also, he's been turning up to dates previous to Married at First Sight and made it very clear what he wanted on the date, which was just only bedroom activities. And if they were like, no, this is a date, he left.

But at least he was being honest. Yeah, that's true. He wasn't stringing anyone along, was he? That's right. We'll chuck the guy a bone. We'll chuck the guy a bone. But yeah, he's Again, why do people go on these shows?

He's like, I'm a teacher and I don't want people to look at me like this and he's not engaging in any of the show or the promotion of it and you're like, you signed up. Yeah. You knew what this was, dude. Anyway, not a great guy.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. From Vaughan's free trial of Microsoft Word, this is the top six. 100,000 eggs were stolen from an egg farm in Pennsylvania. How do you even do that? A couple of trucks. They must have been all packaged up and ready to go. And then somebody else just rolls in with a truck and a fork.

Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Friday week is Valentine's Day, and we've come up with an idea. It's a little twisted. I think this is a great idea. Now, maybe you're in a situation where this Valentine's Day, you kind of want to remind someone that you are worthy of love.

Do they need a little push? They might need a little push for it. Maybe they're dilly and or dallying. Maybe they're dilly dallying and you're like, how is this going to happen? So our idea is called... This is, by the way,

We're not feeding a toxic behaviour. No, no, no, no, no. This isn't problematic. Rather than communicating a desire or a want or a need, this is our suggestion. It's called The Jealous Bunch.

Now, we've partnered with Interflora, which is amazing. And what we will do is you can register and we will send you a bunch of flowers, an extravagant bunch of flowers. We're talking a giant extravagant bunch. Like worth a lot of money. And we'll write you a little note like, from your secret

admirer. Do you know what I mean? And then someone, whoever it is, maybe it's like a co-worker and they're always like, my boyfriend always spends me flowers on Valentine's Day. Right? Or maybe there's like the cute boy at work and you've been like flirting a little bit and he hasn't like sort of taken the next step.

This amazing bunch of flowers is going to turn up and say like, happy Valentine's Day from your secret admirer. It's going to make them very jealous. Not toxic. Not toxic. Not toxic. Just a bit of fun. No, I love this idea.

But also, I like this angle of if there's somebody who always gets things in the office from the boyfriend and you get in there. You get in there, babe, and you're going to get this amazing bunch of flowers. Or maybe you are in a long-term relationship. Maybe

you've like, your partner, you know, you're going fine, but he never ever sends you flowers. I'm just saying hypothetically, imagine. Yeah, or your husband or wife of many years. Yeah, maybe they're being a little bit neglectful of you. And maybe you just need to remind them that, hey, other people are looking at you

and thinking that's a bit of me. I love this idea. I don't know what Aaron would do if like a huge bunch of flowers turn up saying like, Hayley, happy Valentine's Day. You are so beautiful. Think about it. It's Valentine's Day?

Yeah, he would. He'd be like, what? No, old producer Jared actually did send him a message. You may remember last year, Jared messaged Aaron and said, it's Valentine's Day. You might want to get her some flowers. And he did. And I was blown away.

Until you realised. Until I realised the message. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. But I think, I don't know what Aaron would do if a huge bunch of flowers turned up and was like,

end it all. You know, like, leave it all. I'm waiting for you. We'll put whatever you want on that card. Yeah, we will. So register, send them online. There's also a link on our Instagram as well.

This bunch of flowers is going to look great on the gram too. It's going to make everybody jealous. So if you would like to register for Jealous Bunch, do that now. We're going to do a bunch every day next week leading up to Valentine's Day. And you can also if you are wanting to get flowers for Valentine's Day, into

flora.co.nz, get your orders in now for Valentine's Day. This text just came in. Do we think this would make my boyfriend jealous enough to propose to me? Now... I love this. Take your finger away

from your mouth. Are you... Jesus. I'm just wondering. People can't... They wouldn't even... 99% of people listening wouldn't have even known

my finger was on my mouth. How clear is that? It's his pet peeve. This is what he does when I talk like this and I've got my water bottle like that. He hates it. You just banged your cup on the desk.

Please have some professionalism. You're banging your cup on the desk. Please think of the listener. Let's have some professionalism. Stop it. Can we just be professional with the microphones, please? What does the text say? It says,

do you think this would make my boyfriend jealous enough to propose? I think you're playing a dangerous game. That's a dangerous game. I think that's a dangerous game. Life is fun playing. It is up to you the listener if you decide to enter our jealous bunch. This person. And we'll write on the card if he doesn't do it I will. I'm waiting.

No because that makes it out like you've been loved from you know who. I mean, oh my God, the things. The things we could do with this jealous bunch. I just love this idea so much. We've got our first jealous bunch on Monday, so make sure you register to be in to win.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Big day yesterday in Auckland. Oh man, I was leaving the gym and saw all these young girls in short skirts and crazy outfits. And I was like, that's right. It was a weird mix of people in Auckland yesterday because there was also like a country artist playing last night. Oh, was there? Who dat?

Tyler Childers? Yeah. Our friends were up, Alice and that. I wonder why they were up. They were caught up with them yesterday. And so like walking around Auckland were like laneway hipsters and gen z's and then like cowboys.

Lots of cowboy hats. And I bet every single person was wearing cowboy boots. Yeah, actually. That's the Venn diagram. The middle was cowboy boots. So laneway was yesterday. Performing was our friend Joe

who we're going to catch up with after eight o'clock. But also Charlie XCX. Like that was the friend Joe, who we're going to catch up with. After 8 this morning. After 8 o'clock. But also Charlie XCX. Like that was the big headline, right? Yeah. How was it? Wait, how are you guys feeling this morning? Can you not tell by our voices we've had a bit of a night?

Yeah, there's a bit of a dislike energy dip. The only reason they're not hungover is because the bar was 10 minutes away. It was too far. I kept going to Carmen. I was like, I want to go, but it's not worth it. But I'm hungover because the bar was 10 minutes away. It was too far. I kept going to Carmen. I was like, I want to go, but it's not worth it. But I'm glad now. I did say to her at one point, I said, my voice is going and I'm going to get shit for this tomorrow.

Yeah, a little bit. What you won't get shit for is you crocheted your own dress. And when we touched base with you pre-concert, the back of it had not yet been crocheted. Yeah. I will say, as I arrived at the event, it was good. As I wore it, the humidity and the heaviness of it it became more than a floor length dress oh like it's like the day went on it got longer and longer it started taking on um weight of the water yeah

yeah gravity took effect i blocked the dress which is how you have it sit. So yeah, by the end I had to kind of tuck it into my little bodysuit and toddle back. Well, the video I saw looked good, but you guys had an amazing spot. Like, how did you get so up front? Oh my gosh. Spark had their own little, like, activation. Sounds very radio of me, but

you could get to the front if you're a Spark customer, and we are, thanks to our work, and we were just so close, and they were limiting how many people were in there. So you had all the space. But I thought it was like you'd snuck into some VIP area. So did I. Yeah.

Yeah, it was wild. Even Charlie was with us at one point. I know, that was pretty wild. I saw a video from Zedium that she was like a metre and a half away from you guys. Yeah, we were playing it real cool. No, hang on, hang on, hang on. We were playing it real cool. I think earlier this morning you told us that you were taking 0.5 photos

so you looked like you were taking a selfie, but she was in them. You know, the jury's out. But yeah, we saw some great characters. We overheard a lot of interesting things. What are some of the things you overheard? Because I know that you had some of them you were writing down. I love one line out of context from a conversation

you overheard. Good stuff. I think our favourite was, he's not technically your stepdad if he hasn't married your mum yet. Like, what does that mean? And I know what Hayley's thinking, because I know what she's reading. That's immediately where I've gone.

I know, and they walked past so quick, and we wanted to, like, follow. It's not technically a step down. Is it rude to say to people, excuse me, please explain. We must know what's going on here. Hi, hi, sorry, context? Yeah, context?

They didn't seem young enough that it's like, oh, he can't discipline me, he's not my dad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He can't ground you. You know? It was weird. We also overheard in the toilets, I dropped my phone in the port-a-loo, is it worth getting it? Yes. Yeah, it is. It is. I saw an Instagram reel of somebody fishing their

phone out of a port-a-loo and that changed my mind. No, probably not. Where'd you go? If you had iCloud back it depends how early in the festival if it's early well here's the thing about early

it's further down later in the festival because of all the toilet paper it's easier to get it because it's higher but there's more but it's grimmer yeah

god we also heard someone say I don't know why I got a fake ID at this point I think they weren't enjoying themselves or something

but they weren't stoked that they got a fake ID because it point. I think they weren't enjoying themselves or something but they weren't stoked that they got a fake ID. Because it was R18. Yeah, they changed it. So originally it was R16 and then it changed. Yes, yes, yes. Oh man, what a day. And we saw someone dressed as Bert but no Ernie. No Ernie? Ernie's gotta be there somewhere. I'm sure Ernie was there.

Ernie's lost. But like full sculptural headpieces and like body paint. Oh man, I want to see a photo of that. Again, I'm great with the 0.5. You forget that some people have jobs where they'll still have their job, but they can't be cancelled. Yeah, totally.

You forget that. Dude, orange face all day. Bert's yellow. Oh, Bert's yellow. Ernie's orange. Ryan, okay. I beg your pardon. Yeah. You should be begging. Oh, Burt's yellow. Ernie's orange. Ernie's orange. Ryan, okay. I beg your pardon. Yeah. You should be begging.

No, I'm really sorry I stuffed that up. I actually mis-colourised them. Please beg Jim Henson's pardon. I will. Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Last night, I showed Lola Young to Aaron, and I introduced him to Dochi and Chapel Rowan, because he's not a man of modern times.

He's not, no. I said, let me just give you a little crash course on what's happening in music at the moment. And he was like, wow, that good? So that's his review. That's good. He's on board. He's on board.

We've got him. Now, there is a young journalist at the Daily Telegraph. He is 34 years old, so extremely young. Like fresh, just starting out at life. Do you know what I mean? People of that age, you're like, wow, fresh from high school, basically. Not having a midlife crisis, turning 35 this year,

getting piercings and tattoos. No, definitely not. Motorcycle licenses. No, we're young. We're just fresh out of home. Harry also turned 35 last year. Oh yeah, so wow, you're even older than I thought. Well, shut up 43. Anyway, he wrote an opinion piece about how he even older than I thought. Well, shut up 43. Anyway, he,

uh, shared, he wrote an opinion piece about how he exclusively dates older women. At least 10 years older. He likes them in their mid 40s. Okay.

Right? And he's like, here's what I've learned. They've kind of got it all sorted out. There's no, like that cult kind of like, uh, am I going to have kids thing?

It's kind of wrapped up. Yep. They've either done it, which is not a problem to him or they're not going to do it. It's no, like that cult kind of like am I going to have kids thing? It's kind of wrapped up. They've either done it, which is not a problem to him, or they're not going to do it. It's not, you know, they're not still like, not on the fence. 45, you probably made your decision by them. They're independent. They've got financial independence. They've got careers. They've sort of got their life going. And he's just like, they just know things. Do you know what I mean?

They're just really like, they're hitting their stride and this is what I like. And he's like, I didn't set out to be this way. He just dated one older woman and was like, hell yeah. Then the next one, he was like, hell yeah. And now he exclusively dates older women. He's just like, this is me. They've got it sorted.

They've got it sorted. It's his vibe. That's his energy. And it got me thinking about those people you know who exclusively date basically the same version of the same person. Like when they get the new boyfriend, you're like, oh, that's exactly the same as the last one. Yeah, what you've done there is just a type with a different name.

And I want to know, listener, if that is you. If you have a dating type that you only go for. Because, Shannon, you're on to your third, this is your third magician, isn't it? Yeah. This is a... Yeah, they keep disappearing.

cousin. Yeah, yeah, that's right, that's right. Thank you. Really good call. Yeah, I love magicians. If, God forbid, mine leaves me, I'm just finding a new one. Yeah. I mean, for me, I haven't dated a lot, you know. Yeah. I was with, before Aaron, before my type turned into ginormous behemoth hairy men. Yeah.

Which it is exclusively now on the male side of things. That's what you'd say would be your type. Yeah. But when I was in a more casual set up, it was skinny dirty looking rock and rollers. They had to have the skinniest jeans, the greasiest hair. They looked like they were controlling the sound desk at a

concert. 100%. I need stinky band t-shirts. I did, that was it. That was my time. Bangles, braided leather around the, have a shower take that my mom used to call them the great unwashed she was like god who's next on the great unwashed oh wow okay so you really did have a time yeah it was like it was that was it okay well this is what we

My dad picked up on this trend on number two, but now we're up to number four. What if they had a Ranger? You should branch out to a Ranger. It's got to be a Hilux. Okay, just a Hilux. Weirdly, someone said not really a type, but I've had three serious relationships with people

who were all born on the 13th of August. What? Isn't that weird? That's weird. Wow. I mean, easy to remember, I guess. Yeah. Just remember the one date.

I'll start by saying I love my ginger-beaded white men, but I'm sure my type is big Maori Islander boys who look tough but are big teddy bears and scared of their mums. Oh.

Seven. Primary school. Primary school. Seven stages in my life yeah okay you were seven are we calling that dating

with three people, all born on the 8th of November, myself included, and it also happens to be his mother's birthday. Oh, we've got a mummy complex there. Oh, that's weird. I only date people who have the same birthday as my mummy. I'm looking for someone like my mummy. Yeah.

I need you to look like my mummy, I need you to talk to me like you're my mummy, and I need you to have the same birthday as my mummy. Do you know some people, I think people who are into astrology will say that that's a thing. Oh, they go for the... They'll be like, oh, you're going for that energy. The Sagittarium.

But is it really? Sanitarium, a star sign? Yeah, Capricorn, Cancer, Libra, Sanitarium. Sanitarium, Phosphorus. Is it really a thing though? No, I don't know. I think that's just pure coincidence. Oh my God, we've had another person.

Three Matthews as well. Really? Matt's a get-man. I mean, it's a popular name. It'll be like in 10, 15 years, you'd do this and someone would ring in and say, I've had a few Liams or a few Ollies. Otises.

Yeah, because they, you know, just the name du jour. DJs back in my day, I used to love a DJ. There's a reason that never worked out. Yeah, well, you got stood up by a DJ, didn't you? Yeah, I got stood up by a DJ at 5 a.m. Yeah. Okay, this one's long. Someone's listed a long.

My type is a nice guy with a bit of an edge. A bit of a bad boy, but not too much. Often bearded and tattooed. Bald. Maldi or Pacific Island. Other men need to have hair. Oh, so if you're Maldi or Pacific Island, you can be bald? Right.

But if you're Pakeha, you can have hair. Aren't baldness rates lower amongst our Maldi and Pacific Island brothers? Yeah, they grow a thick head of hair. Yeah, they're less likely to be bald. But then Dwayne the Rock Johnson, that's a great bald man. Yeah, that's... I think his... Oh, no, because his father was African-American.

He had a full head of hair too. As dating online has not been going well, my friend encouraged me to try something different. So I went for a man who looked like a real straight-laced fellow. Okay. A teacher and adventurer looking for long-term. Within five minutes, he'd asked me about being what open to possibilities meant for my profile.

I say something about broadening my horizons. He proceeds to tell me all about BDSM that he wants to do. Oh, okay. And a strap-on that he wants to try. Oh, wow. On the first date. First date. That's the second date.

Now I'm no prude, but I'm going back to my bad boys. Your bad poly poor boys. Because none of them have ever talked about that. It's always those quite nerdy white guys you've got to watch with the... Yeah. I mean... Yeah. I've just described myself.

I wasn't saying I want to try a strap-on. Yeah. Okay. But I'm open to possibilities. What do you mean? What does that mean by your profile? Now someone's texting and they're trying their hand at comedy. I think we should give it a platform.

Okay. That last lady who called up who's dated a few Matts, I guess you could say she's had a Mat-few. Give it a laugh. A bit of a laugh. There you go. That's good. I like it.

I like it. That's great. I like it. Text of the week. Text of the week. I like the name Matthew. I like it. I like it.

That really tickled me. I didn't get it for ages. You didn't get it? Why didn't you get that for ages? I got that straight away. Matt's short for Mattfew. Yeah. I'm going to go text of the week.

Thanks to Animates. Animates makes happy happen for pets. Happy happen for pets. Happy happen for pets. We've got a $50 Animates voucher for you for that great humour. Somebody said they're currently three Peters in a row. All nerdy. I guess you could say she's had a Pete-few.

No, it doesn't work. I still don't get the Matt-few. No. You would say something like, I hope that doesn't Peter out. Much better. That's good. That's good.

That's good. That's good. God. My type is Bogans, long hair, banties, rock music lovers. But now I'm with a bald, rave-loving man. And we have a non-bogan child together. Bald, rave-loving man. I hope he wears a...

He'd sweat a lot at a rave and there's no hair to stop it dripping in his eyes. Oh, my God. She's three-peating. That's good. That's good as well. Some funny people today. I guess you could say she's had a Pete view. No.

I don't think I get the Matthew joke. No, it's not working, is it? Is it because... Nah. It's my pick for Friday Flashback today. Thank God. Thank God because Vaughn's off today. Grammy winner.

I would have played the Dave Matthews band. Well, that would have sucked. Oh, my God. Stop. Please stop. Play ZM's Fleshchbourne and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Friday Flashback.

Flashback. Flashback. Today I have chosen an absolute banger from a former Super Bowl performy. Former? Super Bowl's on Monday. Go, Birds! Go, the Birds. Go, Birds. I don't Super Bowl's on Monday. Go, Birds! I don't even know. Go, the Birds.

Go, Birds. I don't even know who's playing. Philadelphia Eagles. Go, Birds. I just say that because I've always studied in Philadelphia. Cheaps. Yeah, I still don't know how it works. They wear helmets and they take a lot of time outs.

Our boys don't wear helmets or shoulder pads. They just bloody run into each other. They just get those head knocks. Yeah. Lifelong concussions. CTE. Yeah. Lifelong concussions. CTE. Yeah. Exactly.

But I have chosen a two-time Super Bowl performer. Oh. 2016, she performed alongside Coldplay Bruno Mars in California for the Super Bowl. And in 2013, she headlined the show in New Orleans and brought fellow Destiny Child members on stage for her performance. Who could it be? Michelle. It's Michelle. No, she won a Grammy this week. She finally won

Album of the Year. Finally won it. After Kanye made a fuss about it and ripped Taylor Swift down. Jay-Z made a fuss about it in the past. She just never won for those. Well, she did this week. And your Friday flashback today,

I've gone for an absolute Beyonce banger. Yeah. Crazy in Love. Beyonce. ZM. Beyonce, Jay-Z, Crazy in Love. It's your Friday flashback on ZM. It's eight past eight.

Feedback is mixed, and I think it's because people think that Beyonce just won for her worst album. People are like, she shouldn't have won for Cowboy Carter, she should have won for Lemonade. She should have won way back in the day. For Lemonade and all those songs. Name me a song. Name a song for Lemonade. I loved Lemonade. Name a song.

Lemonade was an iconic piece of music history. Lemonade isn't the hack to that. I love Beyonce. Did you like Lemonade? Loved it. Name a song. Lemons. We've said Lemonade? Loved it. They have a song. Lemons. We've said this. We've said lemons. Lemonade.

That was their song, When Life Gives You Lemons. Yeah. When Life Gives You Lemons, make Lemonade the album. Lemonade. Yeah. Is it not great feedback? It's a mix of views. You're in such a good mood today.

It's the weekend, it's Friday. And look at our beautiful boy and his bright eyes. Why would we want to bring him down? Well, you'll know him from Stranger Things, Joe Carey. And Joe, who performed at Laneway yesterday. Yeah. Last night. We caught up with him Wednesday. Wednesday. Wednesday. Yeah. Last night. We caught up with him Wednesday.

Wednesday. And a hotel, I'd say conference room? Yep. A medium sized hotel conference room. Not a large I know what you're thinking listener. It's a large where they'd hold a conference? No. Smaller. Mini conference room. I want you to imagine

that you booked the conference room but then you turned up and they've double booked the conference room and they're like, we do have another room. I want you to imagine that you've booked the conference room, but then you turned up and they've double booked the conference room and they're like, we do have another room. And then they take you to that room and it's smaller. But they haven't got any tables set up. It's too small. Yeah. You'd probably say boardroom size. Boardroom size.

A little bit bigger than a boardroom. A little bit wider than a boardroom. Yeah, because boardrooms are always skinny. Maxi boardroom. Yeah. A maxi. Boardroom. If your boardroom. Yeah, because boardrooms are always skinny. Maxi boardroom. Boardroom. Yeah. A maxi... Boardroom. If your boardroom needs a U-shaped table rather than a traditional long board table, this is the room for you. Well, if you can imagine a

wide boardroom, we sat down with Jo on Wednesday. Kia ora. I'm Hayley from Fletchbourne and Hayley, and we're joined by Jo. Hi, Jo. Hello. They told me to do an official start so I wanted to sort of use my newsreader-y. Love it. Yeah. Kia ora. Welcome Joe. Welcome to Aotearoa bro. How are you finding it? You've been here a few days. You've got an amazing voice. Do I? Yeah.

Good. It's been really great. It's been beautiful and sunny. We came from freezing cold New York so it is like a full 180 for me and all the guys it's been great we've been hanging out going to the beach we went to uh went to piha that was great we need to make sure yeah it's our most dangerous we made a TV show about people who died here yeah i'm not on the show um did you wear pants in the ocean? Jesus, no. That seems like a horrible idea. It feels like it's obvious not to do that, but that's how you end up on Piha Rescues. Long pants, we do encourage people to wear a form of pant, like a swimming pant.

Oh yeah. Because if you say that to a British person, they'd assume you'd gone naked if you weren't wearing any pants. No, no, no. And a different pant. No, I grew up in a place that's close to the beach so I know at least to wear swim trunks to the beach. Long pants. No, no, no. We've got to congratulate you.

You have just gone platinum. That is very exciting. And New Zealand. It sounds like I just told you the news and I was like, I would have made more of a fuss if you didn't know. No, no, that's very cool. How does it feel? It's kind No, no, that's very cool. How does it feel?

Yeah, really crazy, to be honest with you, yeah. It's funny when you work on something that just feels like a little project that you're doing and something that you're working on just because, you know, just because I like to do it, really. And it's just cool that so many people have connected to it. So it was a passion project. You were just like, this is something I'm passionate about.

It's something I like. Into it. That's the best when those pay off. That is the best when those pay off. What have your passion projects borne so far? None. None. All of my passion projects cost me a fortune and have zero success.

That is generally how passion projects work. Yeah. I too hope to one day have international success with one of my mild passion projects. It's not why, because that passion is the answer, but you sort of didn't need to do anything else. You'd kind of gone alright.

Yeah, it had been going okay. It had been going okay. Do you know what I mean? Things were things were kind of sweet and going really successfully, and you were like, let's add more. Yeah, I didn't need to kind of go that way. Yeah, I just, like, I've always been a fan of music, I guess, and always really loved songwriting, and I really am kind of addicted to the recording of music.

I think it's really fun, and a lot of my heroes are musicians, and the two kind of, like, feed off each other in a way which is really nice so uh yeah it's just something that it's been really cool to come back to especially when you know you're working on set who are some of those musicians you look up to because like we see you on a tv show set in the 80s so i'm always assuming it's like duran duran sure in 80s bands but like what what sort of music we enter has inspired you? It kind of runs the gamut. My parents were really big Bruce Springsteen

fans, so The Boss, obviously. Actually, oh no, they've done a biopic, haven't they? That's happening right now. Who's playing Bruce Springsteen? Which I think is pretty good. I would not be a good boss to be honest with you

I like the boss but I couldn't do that I couldn't pull that off so but when I was a little kid I really liked you know like classic rock and then when I was maybe in my early teens I discovered Daft Punk and that was really kind of exciting you're a bit of a me the boys laugh

because this year I'm going to James Blunt and Slipknot and you can't sort of i'm everywhere in between i like that though i think that's that's really fun because there is like something there's something in everything yeah it's kind of worth checking out um so do you feel like you're part of because we talk about this a bit on air at the moment i feel like pop music or popular music went had a bit of a dip and for a while we were like i'm not vibing and i feel like at the moment it's so good do you feel this like the point that pop music is just like absolutely i think the grammys this week were like yeah we were like i hope it's not the peak but it feels like it's the peak since for a long time for pop music i think so so, too. Yeah, last year especially was crazy.

So many good albums. And I think also, like, a lot of, you know, nobody's an overnight success. But definitely I feel like a lot of new artists were kind of getting their flowers, too. So that's always really cool to see. Do you feel like, the boys are going to laugh because I always manage to get this in with people. But I'm a musician and an actor as well. Yeah. I'm just putting that, I have a question. Okay. But I just also want to know. I don't even know who's keeping count of the amount of people you've told this to but it's insane like we've

had interviews with people who've been on hugely successful shows, movies, like award winners and she's like I'm somewhat of an actress master actually which drama school i was going to say to you what did you choose like if you had to choose musical acting and then i was like what would i choose and i'm like radio i took the third route and i'm happy to be here but if you if you had put you in a sophie's choice situation and i said to you is in terms of being an entertainer or you could only choose one avenue. You're on screen acting and playing characters or you're playing music. I think that's a pretty difficult thing to choose. Right now, I'll tell you what.

It's not actually happening, by the way. We're not going to really do that. It's like, or is it? The second that you get kind of far down one rabbit hole it kind of feels really good to kind of go the other way and so i'm sure you know eventually you know everybody kind of feels like oh man i'm kind of feeling frustrated by something in this that i'm doing so you know yeah i think it's kind of like an impossible decision and i'm sure you know at some point i'll probably be like, you know, tennis.

That's what I'm doing now. Is there a sport? Honestly, I do like tennis. We talk about tennis all the time. Tennis recently. He's like enough for him. No, I just like to think how he would relax. Well, as a fellow, you know, hobbyman, you know, we've got Project Guy.

I do, yeah, I do like tennis a fair amount. Yeah. Yeah. It feels like you need a role where it's like you're playing a famous tennis a fair amount. It feels like you need a role where it's like you're playing a famous tennis star. John McEnroe. Dude, you could do McEnroe the McEnroe hair.

There you go. They already did a McEnroe movie with Shia LaBeouf. That was a while ago, I guess. But that movie was good. You know every biopic. You just named the two that I know. How do you celebrate something like going platinum? Like, do you... Because in New Zealand,

we'll print you out the coupon, but when you leave New Zealand, they give you a kiwi bird to take home. Really? Yeah. That's legal? It's not. It's not legal.

You've got to smuggle it. It's very frantipont, so keep it quiet, but they will give it to you. In a backpack or something? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like those cat backpacks with the windows so the cat can see? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or like those cat backpacks with the windows

so the cat can see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was like, help, help. Yeah. Precious to this country. Yeah. But how do you celebrate?

Do you throw a big party or are you a chill, kind of humble, oh my God, it's like, ain't my big thing? Usually with friends and family, I'd say,

or something, cook a nice meal, have something like that. Definitely, yeah. you guys have very good food here very fresh and delicious food i will say yeah i'm sure you got crap but like also i feel like maybe because you guys are so far away from other places you guys have to have all of it here yeah everything is so fresh and delicious that i've experienced okay so if you're cooking what are you cooking What's your go-to?

Because food is a big thing when you're selling. Vaughn's going meat on the barbie. I'm going some kind of nice salad. Fletch always eats just mince. A lot of mince. Or chicken, plain chicken. Okay. Easy.

Okay. Boring. Maybe like a fish sort of thing. Me and my sister's made branzino For New Years What? That was really nice We made a big

Nice big fish Made some pasta So that's what I'm choosing I've got a 10 year old daughter And she was supposed to come She's the hugest Strangest things fan In the world

Play ZM's Flesh, One and Hayley. Now, speaking of handsome men, okay. So, yesterday I was at the GIME. Public holiday, John. Public holiday. Really busy, cranking. Just plenty to see. Plenty to see. And I was doing legs and I had my keys and I had my towel and my drink bottle and my phone and that.

I was kind of just dragging it all around. Why don't you leave that in a bag? Why don't you leave that on a machine that you're not using? Oh, yeah. You're going to use to dibs it. Yeah, to dibs it. I'm not an a-hole. I hate when people do that.

It's like I can literally see you on the other side of the gym using another machine and you want this one too. I just move it. If people put their leg... I'll just look around and I'll ask the immediate people, is this you? Yeah, but you've got to check whose it is too because sometimes it could be some big, massive dude and you're like, I don't want to fight you.

No, no, it's because... He's been in too much weight, it's not enough strength work. I mean, speed work. It's all for show. No agility. you could fight him yeah you could you're sprightly strong and sprightly

I'm not fighting people we've got your back I'm not turning up I'm going away can I bring a knife then I'm good no it's because I when I go to the gym

and get changed at the gym I've got a bag it's all in the locker but if I'm just arriving in my clothes and going home I just take my keys with me rather than going downstairs.

So I had them and I moved from one machine over to another. It was the leg press. So I was sort of lying down this thing, huge weights on. I mean, I'm telling you. That's the one where you're like pushing it up the hill. Pushing it up the hill. And I was finishing. It was quite a good

time to actually be approached. I had 120 on that thing. I was like, here we go. Feeling pretty good and I feel an energy approach me. Is there an energy shift? There's an energy shift. Wow. A magnetism of sorts? Yeah, sort of dropping temperature. I was like,

I'm being approached. So I lock in the machine, right? And I really I give it everything, like the last rep like, she's made of steel. Lock in the machine, right? And I really, I give it everything. Like the last rep, like, she's made of steel. Lock in the machine and I turn my head and I am, I'm being approached by, honestly, such a handsome man. Okay. Donus of sorts. I'm saying, I'm going to say 6'2", black hair,

really sort of like dark eyes, olive-y features. Good rig. You know, I'm just saying, wow, towards me. And I think, holy hell, like, he's drinking me in. This is great. And not that I am not.

He's at 120 kg. He's like, look at the thighs on that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want that. We've got ourselves an ostrich. Your real- Real powerful legs. Powerful legs.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I was like, this is a real ego boost for me. You know, I'm not available, but like, sure, man, shoot your shot. You go. Like, go you. Great for the ego. Flattery. Great for the ego.

And I was like, oh, he's going to ask my number. And paying dividends. Like, it shows the work you're doing at the gym, you know. You would have seen the flex at the end of the range. And I'm thinking, I start constructing my head, something cool to say to be like, da, da, da, da, da, but I've got a partner. You know, something cool to just be like, in another world, my bro, but unfortunately this ship has sailed.

You know, so I'm trying to think of something suave. You said cool to say. Yeah, something like that. Right. Well, well, well. What would you say? Shoot your shot, my bro, but the arrow, you've missed the target. Something cool.

Do you know what I'm thinking? Yeah. Something. I'm going to say yes. I'm awfully flat as I am. Yes. But I'm currently engaged. Prior engagement. Yeah. But toot-a-loo.

Should he not return from the war, I would be more than willing to look you up, good sir. Do try again. Farewell. So I look up at him and I give him the hazels. Give him the hazellas. Hit him with the hazellas.

He's like, oh, you see my quads? Wait till you see these bad boys. And I hit him with the hazels and I take out an air pod and I'm like, hi. And he goes, oh, you left this on the machine and it was my car key. It had fallen off the car ring. It had just fallen off the car ring. Wait, and then did he say, can I have your number? No, I said, oh my God.

Oh, thank you so much. That would have been such a pain. He was like, yeah, that's what I thought. And then he walked away. It's a bit of a, like a Cinderella situation. He's Prince Charming. You've left, but there's a clue left behind. He's like, who drives a shitty Mazda?

Yeah, who's got that awful, I've seen this car. It's a real modern day take. It smells from a distance. Who's driving this? Yeah, it's got that awful, I've seen this car. It's a real modern day tape. It smells from a distance. Yeah. Who's driving this? Yeah, it was me. I just, my car key had fallen off. Oh, so no.

He gave it to me. Yeah, no number. Even the hazels didn't get him. Yeah, wow. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day It's company pivot week

Thanks to Matt, again Matt Really summing that up quite nicely. A company that we now in the modern day know for a very specific item or items, but started out doing something completely different. And today, Wrigley's Gum. Oh, okay. Wrigley's. For chewing gum.

We do know that. Who owns Wrigley's now? Mars. Steve Wrigley's, the comedian. Yeah. You're not going to make... I said to him, why do you need to work?

Why do you need to make people chuckle? Yeah. You make people chew. Yeah. Why chuckle when you can chew? But Wrigley's... Is it Mars? Who owns them?

It is. I just Googled Mars Inc. When did they purchase Wrigley's? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. 2008. Wow, okay. That's not long ago. For $23 billion

in an all cash deal. Cash? Are you kidding me? What ATM can you get that money out? I don't know. I think you've just got to go to every ATM in the city like 40 times. 1000 max and you're like, oh for God's sake. I've emptied that one. $23 billion?

Yes, in 2008 too. And they make a lot of money every year. They would have already made it back. Was this pre or post financial crisis? Actually, that was the year of the financial crisis. It was the year of the GFC. We all remember the GFC. We remember the GFC.

Well, Wrigley's didn't start out making chewing gum. What do you think they were making? Trains. In 1911. I know that's when the company was founded. Is that what you've got? Yep. Trains.

Frocks. Not trains, not frocks. Petty coats. Horses. They were making horses. I think I've heard what, but I can't remember. Well, that's not helpful. He's asked us.

If you've known this information, you should have remembered it. Nail. Was it food? What they were making, it was a slight pivot from what they were making to making gum. They used the same factories and the same production lines. Candy. Candies, no, no, no.

Should I just tell you? Time strikes. Keep dragging on. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, gelatin. How fun is it for the listener? Yeah, yeah, yeah. At a certain point.

Getting sick of hearing you two guess completely wrong. What was it? Soap. Oh. They were making soap. And then when sort of technology was booming that it was easy to production line sweets and making sweets obviously became a whole lot easier.

They were like, well, we need to get into this game. And they researched what they could make without making huge adjustments to their factory. When you think about it it's a little bit gross because they were like making soap. It was chewing gum. Same batch. Still taste it. Same like procedure you know coming up to it and then

pouring it and. Just changed the ingredients. Yeah they just changed it. Ah okay. So the original piece of gum from Wrigley's was a huge soap bar size. And you were just going, ah! And bite it off. You just had to nibble off a little bit. No, it wasn't the hard candy-cased gum.

It was the sticks of gum. Oh, yeah. Oh, I love a stick of gum. Which could be cast like soap and then sliced thinly. Yeah. We don't really do the sticks here as much. Very American, eh? Very American.

What's the one they have over there, the cinnamon one, eh? They always have that red cinnamon gum. Yeah. What's it called? Cinnamon gum. That's such a bad name. I don't know. It changed its name.

Was that the red? No, that was a lolly. No, it wasn't red. Was that a lolly? Yeah. Okay, yeah. Well, Wrigley's gum, the ones that maybe you're popping one open. Because to be honest, listener, I've just noticed through the magic of radio.

Did you brush your teeth this morning? Yeah, I can smell it too. I think it's the listener. Maybe give yourself a little bit furry already for the day. I think you brushed too early, then you ate, then you had a coffee. I'm not a gum person anymore. Neither. I'm a mint.

Yeah. Oh, really? Yeah, I have mints. I do it instead of brushing my teeth. Instead of? Primarily no brushing of your teeth. Yeah, because you just brush your teeth for breath, right? So I have an Eclipse mint and then I'm good for the day. No, that's not where you're going.

That's not, yeah. Today's fact of the day and the final for company pivot week, thanks Matt, is that Wrigley's gum actually started out making soap. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. It's called Big Red. Big Red. Big Red. Big Red.

Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley. Beautiful laneway festival yesterday. It looked absolutely pumping. The girls went. You had a great time, didn't you? Today, not so much. Shannon is the tightest. That was really forced. We've had it over. Now,

you were a metre and a half away from Charlie XCX. Yeah, this girl came up to me and was putting sparkles over my face. I was living my best life. And then I hear Carwin go, don't turn around, but Charlie XCX is behind us. Did you turn around? Of course. Immediately. If you don't want someone to turn around, you don't start with don't turn around, but Charlie XX is behind us. Did you turn around? Of course. Immediately. If you don't want someone to

turn around, you don't start with don't turn around. You say, look at me. Yep. Whatever you do. No, and then you've got to approach it. Wait a few seconds. Look at me. Look at me for a second. Now, behind you, don't look. Yeah, stop. Stop them in their tracks. Yeah, behind you, don't look, Charlie XX.

Play it cool. You turn away and they can turn around. She knows what their tracks. Yeah, behind you, don't lock Charlie XCX. Play it cool. That's how you do it. You turn away and then they can turn around. Yeah, yeah. She knows what's happening. Or you dance and you'd be like, dance with them and we'll spin around and then they spin around and they get a little gawk. Now, you sent us a video to the group chat

which didn't have Charlie XCX in it. Yeah, I watched it back and I was like, oh, you can't really tell. But I've got some other videos of her. We were kind of doing the thing where you film a selfie and she was right behind us she didn't want to be filmed she didn't want to talk to anyone we didn't bother her no no there were other girlies

and boys going up to her security guards because when I first noticed her it was her and like what looks like two girlfriends and I was like oh my gosh where's her boyfriend because her boyfriend is from my favourite band anyways it's not important and he wasn't there I'm sad about it and I was like oh my my gosh, where's her boyfriend? Because her boyfriend's from my favourite band. Anyways, it's not important. And he wasn't there. I'm sad about it.

And I was like, oh my gosh, she's just like chilling in the crowd. And then all of a sudden, boom, three bodyguards. Yeah. So if you go on ZM online on Instagram, it's like, it's right there, right in her face, I'd say. You can tell. That wasn't us. That wasn't us. No, no, of course not.

When I saw that, I was like, I'm filming. You can see Carwin and I. I hope they're wearing like a Z That wasn't us. No, no, of course not. When I saw that, I was like, film me. You can see Carwen and I. I thought we were in like a ZM t-shirt. No. You can see Carwen and I in the edge of the video. You can see some blonde hair and some ginger hair. So they were pretending to film you. Film us and then zoomed in on Charlie.

That's a good strategy. Yeah, it's good stuff. Although she, you can see from her face, she knows what's happening. I also love she went low key. She's put her hair in like a classic Kiwi girl low bun. To try to camouflage. Sunny's on in a plain t-shirt. Yeah, she definitely wasn't looking like Charlie.

Like she wasn't... Charlie-fied. Yeah, she just wanted to listen to Joe. And she enjoyed it, but people were bothering her a lot. And then she left after a bit. But it's hard. Sometimes when you see a celebrity, you're like, I don't know what it is.

It's just part of being in the modern world. You do want to just like get a little snapshot. I've definitely been guilty of this before, like trying to photograph people. I think I've done it with when Jason Momoa is around, for sure. I've seen him out and about and used to have a little. I mean, big celebrities are used to it. Yeah.

But it's so embarrassing. Everywhere they go in public, it's so obvious. It's when people are used to it. Yeah, but it's so embarrassing. Everywhere they go in public, yeah, it's so obvious. It's when people are trying to be sneaky. Yeah, we got a 0.5 selfie and she just happens to be in the background. So the lens was wider. Yeah, so you managed to get her. And like, you know, happened to like scooch back a bit during that moment. Right.

Well, this is what we want us to talk about, those awkward moments. But I also think it's not just celebrities. You know what I mean? You might see someone real. I mean, we're not, you know, we shouldn't. But when we're just, we're human, you see someone like super, super hot or super like dressed funny.

And you want to send a little picky to the group to be like, ha, ha, ha. You know, and then you do that thing where you're like, I'm just on a phone call. Hi. And then this flash goes off and it goes, ka-ching. And you're like, well, kill me. Yeah.

Okay, well, we want to take your calls on this very thing. 0800 Giles at M. Text through 9696. How did you go about taking a sneaky little pic? And did you get busted? Did you get busted or did you get away with it? Was it just someone you knew or you found hot or was it a

celebrity? Or maybe you saw someone out, saw your friend's boyfriend out and you were like oh my god. See that's so obvious. What are you doing? It doesn't even look like you're using your phone. That's not obvious at all. That's not how you use your phone. I'm a Hayley speaker.

It's not obvious at all. You look like a mum that's expecting a FaceTime but it's not a you use your phone. I'm a Hayley speaker. It's not obvious at all. You look like a mum that's expecting a FaceTime, but it's not a FaceTime, and she's not sure where to hold her phone anymore because it's still on speaker, but it's not a FaceTime. Okay, 0800DARLS.M, call us now, 9696. How did you go about taking a sneaky picture? You can see the story on ZM's Instagram,

which has got us talking about the times you've tried to take sneaky photos or videos of celebrities or somebody. Yeah. So many messages in. People just absolutely caught red-handed. Someone said they've taken a sneaky photo of me. Well, we asked for, oh, no, we did say anyone, didn't we? Sorry.

Emma. Emma, good morning. Good morning. That was like a drive-by shooting. Sorry, Emma. What? Emma, good morning. Good morning. That was like a drive-by shooting. Sorry, Emma. Wait, did I just win the Chemist Warehouse Savage Caller of the Week? Roast of the Week. Roast of the Week.

Chuck and Emma are going to put some Bepanthin to help with that burn. Oh, my God, I'm bleeding out. Emma, good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Now, what celebrity were you trying to be sneaky and take a photo of? I was trying to be sneaky and take photos of Niall Horan. Oh.

From One Direction. Yeah. Was he in New Zealand or overseas? No. This was, so I lived in London for a couple of years. Okay. And he, yeah, and he just happened to be in a tiny little pub in South London that I also happened to be in.

Wow. Okay. So how did you do it? What was your technique? So, yeah, we tried to do the take selfies of each other because he was sitting at a table in the corner behind me and my friend. Yeah. And, yeah, he was just trying to have like a chill night out.

Yeah. And didn't want to be bothered. And when he sees you and your friends taking selfies, he totally knows what's happening. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, I mean, he did, but we also did get to talk to him. So it wasn't kind of like we were just taking these random photos. How did you end up talking to him though?

How did that start? He came up to the bar and got a drink. Right. And so we just happened to be at the bar also getting a drink. Oh yeah, of course. He was real cool about it. He was good? He was good at chatting?

Yeah, he was real chatty. And his cousin was with him who, I was a huge directioner so like, I knew all these people's names. Oh, no! Please tell me you didn't say his cousin's name before you were introduced. No, no, no, no.

Okay, good. But he, because, obviously, Kiwi living in London, you've got quite a different accent. Yeah. So then he started asking, like, where I was from and stuff. Like, conversations. Yeah, like, it was great conversation. Yeah. So then he started asking, like, where I was from and stuff. Like, conversations. Yeah, like, it was great conversation. Yeah.

Okay. Like, really weird, really awkward, but it's a memorable story to tell to people. You got the photo and you got a chat. Exactly. And you got the photo. Emma, thank you. Dave, what celebrity did you try to take a photo of? I don't know, guys.

This isn't actually me. It's my partner. We were doing the Red Rocks walk in Wellington, and we needed to head to the public toilet on the way out afterwards, and there's someone in front of us I said to, that's definitely Sonny Bill Williams. Oh, yeah, you can spot him a mile away. I know, I know, right?

So he's heading to the bathroom before us, and there's only two public toilets, so I'm in one and Sonny Bill's in the other. I've said to my partner a thousand times turn the shutter sound on your camera off. You're going to get in trouble one day. Oh no. Dave, no. You know where this is going.

He comes out of the toilet before I do and I come out and all I can see is Sunny Bell giving my partner this look of girl, you need help and my partner refusing to make eye contact. She is staring at the ground. And I go over and say, what did you do?

And she explained it to me that he walks out. He's not even looking at her. She's got him from the back. The whole thing goes click. Yep, she shot him leaving a public toilet. And he immediately glares at her going, no, no, no. No way. Oh, dude.

Oh, no, I feel embarrassed for her. I'll say it, Dave. You should have left your partner. You know what I mean? We've got so many rugby fans in our family and they didn't even want to see the photo. Now, we can't talk to you about this. Yeah.

Just own, just own. You yucky girl. Oh, that's so funny. Dave, thank you. Keep your Just own. Just own. You yucky girl. Oh, that's so funny. Dave, thank you. Keep your texts coming in 9696 0800 DALS at M. Some great stories. We'll get to more of those next.

When you've tried to be sneaky and take a photo of a celebrity or someone, anyone. Just a regular Joe. How did you go about

grabbing a sneaky little pic of someone? Be it a celebrity or maybe a hot person. Have you done this, Georgia Burt? Yeah, I tried. I tried to do it at an Ed Sheeran concert. Do you guys remember Primrose Everdeen?

Yes. From the Hunger Games. From the Hunger Games. The little sister to, oh my God, why is her name going out of my head? Katniss Everdeen. Katniss. Played by Willow Shields.

And I was like, oh my God, what the heck? That's Primrose Everdeen. Took Willow Shields and I was like oh my god what the heck that's Primrose Everdeen took a sneaky photo and the flash was on oh yeah you loser but that meant that she then saw me

and then said do you want to just get a photo but the downside it's almost even worse do you want a photo oh my god like yes the downside for her

was she was in the mosh so no one had recognised her and then at this point the rest of the night, people got photos of her. Yeah, you too. What, a true show? She's at a Kiwi?

She must have been filming something. Oh, she must have been in Wellington making something. Right. Yeah. Okay, well. Turn the sound off. You might have seen the really up-close video of Charlie XCX just in the crowd.

Also, she doesn't look chuffed to be getting videos. Yeah, at Laneway yesterday. And we want to know when you've tried to be sneaky and take a photo of someone. I left South Africa last year at the same time as the Love Island All-Stars finalists. But it was 6am and I was all splotchy and red from crying because I just said bye to my mum for three

years. So I would have looked like the biggest weirdo walking past them with my phone up filming them, obviously crying at the same time. Great cast. It was a great cast, actually. I was with my ex at a three-day festival in Delaware. We were walking. There was a lull in the crowd

and I saw someone that looked familiar right next to us in a group. I looked at my ex and I said, is that Lewis from One Direction? Louis? Louis. It's Louis. They spelt it Louis and as I said it, I'm like, that's not right,? Louis. It's Louis. They spelt it Louis and as I said it, I'm like,

that's not right, is it? It's Louis. What's his last name? Tom Linson. Tom Linson. R.I.P. By the time the... No.
