Thanks to Animates, making happy happen for pets. ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley.

Thank you, Susie. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fleet, Smaun and Hayley. Hayley's back with us this morning from the Melbourne Service Department studio. What's up? Yeah, I'm still being serviced and I'm still here. We're going to talk later in the show about what happened at your show last night. A very awkward moment. Honestly, it was one for the memory bank for sure. And yeah, real special. Now, maths is wrapped up.

Like a present with a bow on top, right? I don't know. Maths is all wrapped up. We could have done this interview yesterday when you were away, but we're going to do it today because you're back and you're the biggest Mavs fan. Yeah, thank you. Honestly, I

absolutely love Mavs. I think this season has been an absolute absolute, an absolute cluster, but there was some sort of hope at the end. Yeah, Rhi and Geoff joining us after seven for a chat. Also,

you would have heard Susie just mention in the news ahead of the long weekend in Easter. Perfect timing for a tropical cyclone. Tropical cyclone. I thought when I first heard it, it was tarn. You know, like tarns, Tanya? Yeah, tarns. Tarns is a Maryland name.

G'day, Tanya. But it's tam, like Tamara. We all know a Tamara or a Tamsin that'll ruin a life. Oh, they're forces of nature. Yeah, they are. they're forces of nature. Yeah, they are. They're forces of nature. So tropical cyclone Tam is heading the top of the North Island and ready to ruin your Easter weekend.

We're going to chat to our friend Philip Duncan at Weather Watch after 7.30 just to see how the weather is going and for the whole country, see how our Easter is going to pan out. The top six is coming up soon. Yeah, the top six things that will happen in Auckland before this eruption. Now, we've talked about this before. Don't panic.

We've talked about this before. Every six to nine months, there might be a little bit of a slow period in the news. Yep. Someone's going to be like, ring, ring. Hello, volcanologists. Hello, it's someone from the media here, everyone's ready for their panic that we've built a city on top of volcanoes.

And the volcanologists are like, oh man. So 10% chance that one of Auckland's volcanoes could erupt. Right. And the next, what did they say, 10 years or something? No, it's longer than that. I think it's 50.

10% of the next 50 years. It's great. It's been a slow news week. Yeah. I just put in new hardwood flooring. I'm really upset about this. Well, that'll burn right up. Yeah.

This is devastating for me. Lava will go right through that. So the top six things that will happen in Auckland before an eruption. Because I don't think it's going to happen. Soon in the top six, but next. It's a bit doom and gloom to start the show, guys. A recession is here, but thankfully we don't need Bad News Brad

to tell us how to save money. We need the girlies on TikTok. Play ZM's Fleshborn and Hayley. Has New Zealand officially announced a recession? Ooh. No, I think we're out of it, aren't we? Are we officially in a recession? No, I'm going to go to areweofficiallyinarecession.com. No, I think we're out of it. We were in one.

We went in, we came out, but then we might go back. We might go back in if America and the tariffs in China and blah, blah, blah. Oh, awesome. Dude, I put are we in. Are we in an ice age is the first one. And are we in a recession? New Zealand is the second. And are we in, are we in an ice age is the first one, and are we in a recession? New Zealand is the second, and are we in a simulation? Third.

Are we in a simulation? That'd be nice, actually, to snap out of it. I was like, no, it was all fake. Don't worry, we're fine. Yeah, we're just someone's Sims game, and we're in a room locked in there. I just want to woo-woo all day. The December quarter, the economy was still 1.1% smaller than the year before,

but we were officially out of recession in that quarter. Okay. Well, we're basically in one because when we say we're not, we're on the cusp. So, you know, it's time to save. It's time to, you know, knuckle down and not spend too much. Yeah. And there's lots of economists like Bad News Brad

who give us great advice. However, you don't need to listen to those professionals because the TikTok girlies have us covered. There is a new trend where TikTok girlies are giving their recession hacks for the girlies to survive a recession in 2025. Here's some of my favourites. Eat tinned

tuna. Lots of people eat tinned tuna anyway, don't they? How much? Yeah. Isn't there a maximum amount? Because of the mercury. You can't eat too much fish. I can't eat it at all. For me it just tastes like cat food. It's so dry, eh? Although the ones that they mix it in and there's

like a sweet and sour one. Sweet chilli. Hot one. I like those ones. Put them in a wrap. You're cooking, baby. No. I know it sounds stupid. It's too fishy. It's too fishy for me.

I think you'll find that will happen with fish. No. The fish I like is less fishy. The tinned tuna is max fish. Yeah, nothing fishier than fish. What's fishier than tuna? You know what's fishier than tinned tuna is max fish. Yeah, nothing fishier than fish. What's fishier than tuna? You know what's fishier than tinned tuna is tinned salmon. Because they leave the bones in there.

Oh, yeah, that's maximum fish. That's maximum fish. Salmon's max fish, but tuna's second. Because with the salmon, in the factory, the person with the tin just squishes it into the salmon. Moolies, moolies. I love salmon. They thumb it into the tin. squishes it into the salmon, eh? Moolies, moolies. I love salmon. They thumb it into the tin.

Yeah, they thumb it in. Yeah, okay. By professionals. Yeah, it's weird. Okay, this is the recession hacks from the TikTok girlies and another food one. If you go, if you like a food, go when they've got a deal on where it's like a two for one.

And then so say it was like two for one burritos at this place. Yeah. And then you go there on the Monday for the two for one deal and then you've got a second burrito for Tuesday. Now you're paying half price. Oh, so you take that second one home. You fridge it. Okay, yeah, good.

So you're back to back. You're back to back burrito there. You're back to back burrito, but that's fine, right? You fridge it. Or you could freezer it and put a day in between. No. No, you can't freezer it and then unfreeze a burrito. I'm not freezing a burrito.

That's not 100% you could freeze a burrito. You cannot freeze a burrito that is formed and rolled and then expect it to be any good on a defrost. It's going to go soggy. No, you're out of your mind. You're out of your goddamn mind. You listen to me. You're out of your minds, okay?

You can freeze a burrito. Okay, here's another tip. What do your burritos come wrapped in? What do you wrap in the burrito in before you freeze it? What are you talking about? It's a tortilla. No, no, no, no. But you can't just raw dog a burrito into the freezer.

Yeah, I'm raw dog. I'm throwing the burrito into the freezer. Haley slops hers on top of the tip-top container in the frozen peas. Yeah, I go straight tortilla on tip-top. Have some respect for yourself. Okay, here's another hack from the TikTok girlies on how to survive a recession. Learn how to sew.

We can't afford clothes anymore, guys. And I did this recently. Remember, I hemmed a skirt? Yeah. And it was too long. And now it's short, and I like it. So that's good. You have been called to the dean's office, though. Your uniform skirt is too short. I like it. So that's good. You have been called to the

Dean's office though. Your uniform skirt is too short. I need you to take that down some. One of the seventh formers called me a slut. She's just jealous. Talk to the Dean. Okay, go trash picking. There's a lot of value in trash. Do you know this is big on TikTok though, the people that go to like the massive trash bins

outside of like Kmart or whatever. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's like the box was damaged, but the goods are still like flawless. Do you remember there were some stores called out because people would do this and like stores would cut up their products? And people were like, oh, come on,

if you're going to chuck it out, at least donate it. I know, that's wild, eh? Disgusting. I know. My're going to chunk it out, at least donate it. I know. That's wild, eh? Disgusting. I know. My brother used to dumpster dive, like go to the bins outside supermarkets. He had delicious meals. They were great. Yeah, and Hayley could have just loaned him 20 bucks, you know, for dinner.

I mean, you've got a frozen burrito sitting in the freezer right there and you're not going to feed your brother. Oh, it's not my fault that I'm doing well for myself. I assume your parents have a chest freezer full of burritos. Oh, no. I know, but he needs to build character. Right. Okay.

Okay. Here's one of the final hacks. Oh, no. There's two I want to share. Keep your nails short because we can't be affording to get them done all the time. So you've just got to have stubby kind of yucky nails for a bit. And stop using your dryer. So what they've discovered, the TikTok girlies,

is something that they've worked at. It's called a clothes horse. And what you do is you hang your wets. Fletch, listen to this. You hang your wets onto this clothes horse. And I tell you, it doesn't look like a horse at all. You hang your clothes on there and after about a day, it dries. They dry, yeah, or it dries overnight.

Yeah, I never use a dryer. I'm only a clothes horse person. Man, I'll thumb a lot into a dryer, eh? Oh, yeah. Vaughan loves it when people in his house use a dryer. On a sunny day? Yeah. Oh, the towels get scratchy.

Chuck them in for five minutes when they've been dried outside. The towels, I love an exfoliating towel. Indy had some friends recently and they were like grabbing towels for showers and she's like, careful, some of them are particularly scratchy. Those are Dad's special exfoliating towels. You leave the scratchy towels for Dad. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughn and Hayley. Taking your partner's name,

traditionally, traditionally, the wife would take the husband's surname. Yes. Sort of an ownership thing. Really, when it boils down to it, you know. Yeah. Marrying your daughter off into another family so, you know, you can keep the land and that.

You're taking us off of our father's hands, right? So we lose our father's name and take yours. And when do we give it back? You own us now. When do you give it back? To the father. Never. Oh.

Well, 51% of the time, you do. Well. Love is dead. Love is dead. Love is dead. Gen Z women are rejecting their tradition more so than the millennials who had rejected it more so than the boomers. I think you'd go with whoever has the cooler name, right? I reckon. And there are even couples that mash up the two names and make a whole new name.

That is what the younger people are favouring. Alternative ways of doing it. 17% of men and 20% of women aged between 18 and 34 support options like double barrelling the name, merging the names, or the men taking the spouse's surname, or just picking a whole new surname. Oh, that.

Yeah. I would imagine if there's anything a family's going to be upset about, it's picking a new surname, right? Picking a new one. Because how does that work with your Ancestry.com family tree? The family tree is going to be a nightmare. It's going to be like, yeah, where have the Batronians come from? You know, like, because we were the Smiths all these years,

and now we've got Batronians in here. Why did you choose Batronian? Do you know what? It's what came to mind, and out it came. you choose Petronian? Do you know what? It's what came to mind and out it came. Hayley Petronian. Hayley Jane Petronian. Yeah, I love it. From the planet Glaxar.

It's when the aliens arrive with their names. We've got to take them, really work hard to be able to pronounce them properly. I mean, I'm a millennial. I would never, ever change my name for anyone Is that because you're a successful comedian and radio

It actually has nothing to do with my extreme fame Nothing to do with my extreme fame and me wanting to remain relevant and recognisable Right, Hayley Marmore Okay well now we're in a different territory.

I thought we might be. There we go. I thought we might have forgotten. There we go. Hayley Jane Momoa. I mean, you are 1% Hawaiian. It does work. It, like, fits, right?

It fits, yeah, it fits. Yeah. So 35% of the youngest generation of British women say they'd take their partner's surname, which is the lowest that's ever been in any survey. 27% of Britons view men taking their spouse's surname positively, which is quite, yeah, getting a bit more progressive, isn't it? 27%. Yeah.

And 25% viewed it negatively, and the others just didn't give two hoots. Do you think there would be those guys, so the same guys that don't like it when their partner, their wife earns more than them, would the traditionalists? Those guys suck. I know. But do you think those kind of guys would be like, no, you're taking my last name.

It's Howard. Yeah, I reckon. Totally. And you're staying at home and you shall bear children. Fourth, my name must continue. Guys, stop it. I'm getting so turned on. Oh, my God. Yeah, hot. Cool. continue. Guys stop it I'm getting so turned on Oh my god yeah hot cool

I mean to each their own my mum I remember always said to me that she didn't really want to take the last name but she wanted to be the Sprouse you know so when you have kids I think it kind of like to make the family all the Sprouse she you know? So when you have kids, I think it kind of like to make the family all the Sprouse.

She was like, okay, I'll do that. Yeah. But yeah, I don't want to change my name, nor do I want to be a children. So I just, I'm finding it hard to relate. Yeah. Unless it's Mama. Unless it's Mama. I'm just saying it's in a different field.

You know what I mean? Play. ZM. Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. From your local community Facebook page, this is the top six. Well, it should be no surprise to you, I remember, as a child studying in geography that we live on an island in the middle of the sea with a big spine down the middle. That's where two tectonic plates smash together and push up the Alpine Fault.

Yep. Rotorua is a geothermal wonderland, so there's a fair bit of activity there. Yep. Lake Taupo used to be a mega volcano. A mega volcano. Didn't it? Blew itself inside out. Yeah.

That's how massive it was. I mean, Auckland's just all on volcanoes, isn't it? 42 volcanoes? Yeah. And so it's a slow news week. This mean, Auckland's just all on volcanoes, isn't it? 42 volcanoes? Yeah. And so it's a slow news week. This happens every six months. All the time. We've talked about it before.

Yesterday. But I think the reason it's in the news is they're doing emergency planning, which is nice to know. It's nice to know that someone's got a plan. It's good. Because my plan is panic. Yeah. And push people over and run over them and not wait and not take it calmly.

There is a 10% chance of an Auckland volcanic eruption in the next 50 years, apparently. Awesome. Yeah. I feel like I would like to still be around in 50 years, but that's difficult. She's only in my 90s. If it requires a sacrifice, I'm happy to jump in.

If it's your sacrifice yourself. I to jump in So you'll sacrifice yourself I'm a virgin I don't know if you guys know this Cool way to go I don't know if you guys know this But I'm a virgin Really? I've never put me in

You've got two kids Yeah I know I don't know Jesus Miraculous Miraculous conception Is that what you call it? I've got to imagine

I've got to imagine If people fell for that And they threw you in the volcano And it kept erupting they'd be like he was lying he was lying and I'd be like

yeah yeah yeah I'd be like yeah yeah as I melted well to put people's minds at ease the top six today I've got the top six

things that are more likely to happen in Auckland than a volcanic eruption number six on the list they'll finish that central rail loop they are actually

do you know I watched a video last I don't know I watched the entire thing I watched a video last, I don't know, I watched the entire thing. I watched a train go in the whole, in the tunnel the whole way. Load up that video. Who's that?

Do you love trains? I love trains. And he just knows what train it is, what time it's arriving. I love them so much. The train spotter. He loves them so much. No, I watched it go from all through the,

and it was like four and a half minutes. I'll send it to you. Dude, dude. It's insane. I can't believe I'm sitting here. My civil engineering best friend is telling me about a video we watched without telling me about it immediately. Wait, Vaughn, do you love trains as well?

Dude, I love trains. I'm a civil engineering guy above trains, but trains often take the route of a spectacular piece of civil engineering. It'll be done soon. Shit hot. I think we've still got to wait another year, you're there testing. It'll be done soon. Shit hot. I think we've still got to wait another year, but it's happening. It's good they're doing it too soon. Yeah.

Number five on the list of the top six things that are more likely to happen in Auckland than an eruption. Someone will take a ferry to Wahaka, darling, without posting a video from the back of the ferry looking back at the city with the wake saying something like, peace out or see you soon. Oh, lovely though. It's a good view. It's a lovely view.

It might happen. It's probably not going to happen because that's the rule, right? You've got to take the video from the back. You have to, yeah. Number four on the list of the top six things

that will more likely happen in Auckland than an eruption. I'll finally do that walk up Rangitoto Island that I've literally been saying I must do that since 2004. Yeah, it's beautiful. You must. I must. I've literally been saying I must do that since 2004. Yeah, it's beautiful.

You must. I must. I've done it. I must. All around and up and around. It's beautiful. I must.

And I always say I must do that. We meant to do it this summer. We decided we'd do it. Yeah, we were. Are there wineries on that island as well?

No, darling. No, darling. No. Darling, I do apologize. I'm out. I'm out for the hiking. Okay. Number three on the list of the top six things that will more likely happen in Auckland than

an eruption. All the cafes in Ponsonby will admit they've just been using cow's milk all along. They just... But I requested oat. Yeah, that's just a bit of water. They just put a bit more water in there. Yeah, a bit more. They watered down milk.

They watered down milk. Yeah. And the soy watered down more water in there. Yeah, a bit more. They watered down milk. They watered down milk. Yeah. And the soy watered down even more. Yeah. Yeah. Number two on the list of the top six things

that will more likely happen in Auckland than an eruption in the next 50 years. State Highway 1 will have no roadworks on it from the top of the region

to the bottom of the region. They'll get it finished. They'll be like, ta-da, we're finished. State Highway 1, beautiful. We're future-proofed and everything. And then a volcano will go boom right under there.

Boom, Clay. That would be classic. Right underneath State Highway 1. That'd be classic. And number one in the list of the top six things that are more likely to happen in Auckland than an eruption in the next 50 years, the Warriors will bring home the NRL trophy, baby. What's our year? The Warriors.

I don't know. No, not this year. I don't think it's. Got pumped at the weekend. We were having a good start. Yep. Got pumped at the weekend. But I've got a feeling in the next 50 years we're bringing that trophy home.

I'm not going anywhere till I see that trophy in Auckland. That is today's top six. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. You know, I'm a huge fan of unplugging the internet. I see at least 10 things a day and I'm just like, turn it off, unplug it. Yep. Now, I will say the memes and comical observations from online users about the Blue Origin all-female spaceflight,

I'm leaving the internet on for a day. That was yesterday was so good for content. It was brilliant. Yeah. Yeah. So good. So we're going to go over some of those next. Yeah, also Gail, Gail King.

She's been memed heavy and hard. And she's come out and explained herself. Yeah, because she looked like really serious, like shitting herself. I've got to say, I've got to say the Blue Origin space suits, pretty cool. Yes. Big Fantastic Four energy, I've got to say the Blue Origin space suits, pretty cool. Yes. Big Fantastic Four energy,

if you're familiar with the franchise. Big energy of people who go into space. They do look like Fantastic Four. They do look like the Fantastic Four. They do. Big energy of someone going into space and coming back with cosmic powers. And same with the SpaceX space suits.

They're cool as well, the white ones. They're very fashion, you know, like they've really gone for fashion. Whereas NASA just seem to do just practical. Yeah, yeah. Practical. But more practical. But NASA's also, they do more when they're up there.

Yeah. They just don't go, wee, and down. I've got to say, the meme content was hot from this. My favourite being a screen cap of a pop culture Twitter account saying, Katy Perry is about to launch to space. Katy Perry

is in space. Katy Perry has landed. And it was all within 15 minutes of each other. It was wild. And it was the three notifications the person came back to their phone from. Also that rollercoaster meme as well with the tiny little bump. Yeah, the Spongebob bump. The Spongebob bump.

They didn't go deep into space, right? They went to the stratosphere and then they kind of bump. Yeah. The SpongeBob bump. They didn't go deep into space, right? They went to the stratosphere and then they kind of went. Yeah. What did we say? A hundred or something kilometers. Yeah. Above the Earth. But enough for gravity to be affected.

Yeah. Yeah. There's moments of weightlessness. Yeah. Taylor Swift's All Too Well, the short film, is longer than Katy Perry's entire trip to space and back. Brilliant. There's been so many good ones um somebody said the fact that she didn't sing et in space should have been criminal send her back up so she can do it properly um but i think one of the i've got the picture right here one of the main teams one of the main things to come out of

is is gail who went up, journalist, friend of Oprah, wasn't very well known woman. She hosts the Good Morning America show or whatever it's called. She has this look on her face when she gets down, like the look you might walk out of a staff meeting with. No, wasn't it before going up? Or was it on the way out? It was ringing the bell to go up. Dinging to go out.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. So she was walking to and she just had this look on her face and she's worried obviously, but it just looks like she is so wildly unimpressed with the idea that she's about to join a very exclusive club of people who have been to space. Yeah, and what was the meme?

It was like me clocking in for my dream job. Yeah, yeah, yeah, me clocking in for day three of what I said was my dream job. I feel like her face sort of is giving I've just had a nine hour argument with my partner, do you know what I mean? Or I've just walked out of a staff meeting where I've been spoon fed a

whole lot of bullshit about how this isn't somebody in management's fault. One by one they come out, they ring the bell, she looks like petrified or grumpy or doesn't want to be there. Wildly unimpressed. Comes down and then she has clarified in an interview because this is what everybody wanted to know.

Like, why did you look like that? I have to ask you, from a scale of one to ten, how scared were you the moment you were boarding? Fifteen. Fifteen. You know, and I'd been through the training, so I was well prepared. I had great faith in Blue Origin, of course.

You know, I'm a very nervous flyer. I don't get on roller coasters. I don't like heights particularly. But there was something about this mission that was very inspiring to me. And when you're asked to do it, I thought, how do you say no to that? She doesn't even like flying or roller coasters. I know. If you don't like heights, I reckon don't go to space.

It's the highest you can be. Hey, Gail, want to go to Six Flags? God, no. Hey, Gail, want to go to Six Flags? God, no. Hey, Gail, want to go to space? Sure. I'm in. Wild. Literally, the amount of people that have done that flight,

what is that number? And it's 50s now? Yeah. More people can fit on one go on a roller coaster. Yeah. Yeah, totally. You know, it's pretty wild. I mean, an opportunity of a lifetime, right?

Yeah. Also, that explains You know, it's, yeah, it's pretty wild. I mean, an opportunity of a lifetime, right? Yeah. And a story she'll have forever. Also, that explains why she was so scared, because that would have been at the top of the platform, right? Because the spaceship is, you board right at the top. Yes. On the platform. And that's very high.

Yes. So she would have also just been shitting herself just getting in. About the heights and everything. Getting into the rocket. On the walkway. Yeah, yeah. Before she literally got blast into space. Yeah.

Would you do it if it was free, if they said Hayley? Never, ever, ever, ever. You hate space. I hate space. It's not right. It shouldn't exist. I think I probably would do it. Like, if you got it offered for free, like, why not?

And if it does go wrong, what a way to go. What a way to go. What a way to go. No. You wouldn't do it, Vaughn? I think so. I think a way to go. What a way to go. No. You wouldn't do it, Vaughn? I think so. I think I would. Okay.

I wouldn't go down into the sea. I wouldn't go into the sea. No, the sea is wrong and the space is right. Okay, submarine. Silly little pal. Would you rather go to the bottom of the deepest part of the ocean or into space? Space. It's got to be space for me every time.

I just want to stay on Earth. I'm on Earth. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley Fletchborn and Hayley Silly little pole Silly little pole It is so silly, silly, silly

That the silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole Silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole. Today's silly little pole. Do you ever pause a TV episode halfway through and be like, I'll finish you later? So I say I do this. I'm just going to finish the gym.

If I'm halfway through an episode, I'll kind of wait for a scene to end and be like, pause, come back to you later. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I will. If I'm falling asleep, I will kind of wait for a scene to end and be like, pause, come back to you later. No, I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Although I... I will. If I'm falling asleep, I will. Yeah.

You know what I mean? If I'm sounding like, oh, oh, oh, I'll just turn it off. I think I voted no because I hate doing it, but I can understand doing it more for a TV show than a movie.

Pausing a movie halfway through? Oh, no. No. That's why you don't start a movie unless you've got the open ability to finish it. Yeah. But then... I'll pause you don't start a movie unless you've got the open ability to finish it. Yeah. I'll pause anything.

What is a movie but just a mini series of TV episodes, right? Dude, that is so poetic, man. That's beautiful. That's beautiful, bro. Is that beautiful, man? That's goddamn gorgeous. What are movies? What is gender?

What is time? Short TV show, isn't it? Structures, structures, structures. Far out, man. We asked, you've paused the TV episode halfway through. 87% of people said yes. 13% of people said no. Wow, okay.

Some feedback on it. Angela says, parents of you kids, toddlers, babies, you'll get used to it, Fletch, but it still hurts my soul every time I have to. Fletch is not having babies. I'm not having babies. Not getting used to it. Yeah, actually can not having babies. I'm not having babies. Not getting used to it. Yeah.

Actually can't have babies. Yeah. It's impossible. Because he doesn't have a uterus or a womb or anything. Yeah. No ovaries. He's got half the ingredients, but he kind of doesn't have the oven.

I don't have the oven. Well, Christopher Luxon did just clarify that pregnant people are pregnant women, you know, so you can't fletch. Okay, thank you. All the time, says Sam, mid-sentence even. I'll get distracted and come up with a list of things that need to be done. Pick up one of those shoes, water that plant, put the washing on, and it's just then that's that.

No, you're a monster, Sam. Halfway through a sentence. No, Sam has ADHD. Matt says, of course, all the time when the urge strikes, either to go pee, get a snack or a beer or urge to, you know. Even for a pee, I'll wait till the end of the scene. Yeah. You've got to really pick your moment to pause.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Pretty T says, no, no, no. Pausing halfway through a show. What kind of madness is this? Let it run. Let it play. Yeah. Naomi, when family won't bloody shut up and let me watch my show on One Piece,

I'll pause it and throw a huff and walk away and finish that later. Oh. Sometimes I need a cry break, says Leilani, e.g. love on the spectrum. And I can't enjoy the show while I'm bawling, so I have to pause. That's acceptable. Beautiful show. Tash said, of course I pause halfway through a TV show. Have you guys ever heard of bed?

I'm a sleepy girl who constantly rests my eyes for too long. Luckily, my husband's around to pause when he sees me not off, says Jess. See, I wouldn't be there. I'd just keep watching it and be like, you missed it. You catch up on your own time. I don't reckon he's watching it. I reckon he's on his phone or watching something else and she's watching some trash.

And he's just like, oh, that trash is annoying me. Oh, she's asleep. We're sort of that Hayley trash that she loves. Yeah, we love trash. We love trash as women. We love it. Well, this season of Married at First Sight Australia has been honestly one of my favourite to watch. I have

absolutely loved it. Mostly because, I will say it, it was a train wreck. However, not all was lost. And thank God we have Jeff and Rhi. And they join us now. Good morning, guys. Hey, how are you doing?

I'm doing all right. I mean, is it a happy feeling to be the only success story of this season? Or is it a bit like, oh? It's a bit like, oh. You know, obviously, early doors in the experiment. There's a lot of couples that you thought were going to make it. And to be the only one was a bit of a surprise for us, I think. If you could have had one other couple make it to the end successfully,

like you guys, who would it be? Oh, that's a good question. It would have to be between Paul and Karina and Jamie and Dave, I would say. They were both strong couples throughout the experiment, and I know they had strong feelings for one another, but unfortunately, you know, the experiment puts pressure on you, and some of them crumbled under pressure, and it didn't work out. But definitely one of those two couples.

You know what they say about pressure? It makes diamonds. That's true. That's really wise, Vaughan. Thank you. That's really wise. Yeah, I appreciate the recognition of wisdom there. So now that you guys, so you're back in the real world now as normal human beings without cameras around.

Like, are you finding yourself to sort of, you know, not sure what to say to each other without all these cameras around? It's a lot easier to talk to each other without the cameras around, that's for sure you know when the cameras are there obviously you be yourself as best you can but you know there is an element of it's not natural so

you know sometimes the conversations aren't as natural as they usually are but you know we navigated that pretty well but life is definitely a lot easier and better without the cameras there that's for sure yes definitely a lot better god that'd be awful wouldn't it if the cameras there, that's for sure. Yes, definitely a lot better. God, that'd be awful, wouldn't it?

If the cameras went and you were just sat across from each other on the dining table like, hello. No, it definitely took a bit to get used to. Like at the start, they would say, pretend we're not here. And it is really hard to pretend they're not there when you've got a producer, a cameraman and a sound man looking at you directly. Yeah. hard to pretend they're not there when you've got a producer, a cameraman and a sound man looking at you directly. Towards the end, you become like really good friends with everybody. So you feel a lot more comfortable. So it's not as, I guess, hard to be yourself. But still, like Jeff said,

it's definitely not natural. Do you feel, you know, because sometimes, I mean, God, this season, I mean, Jackie, I mean, she's just gone off the bloody rails, hasn't she? But, you know, like, a lot of people coming out and saying, oh, I was misrepresented or anything like that. Do you guys feel that at all? I mean, you were just sort of lovely from day one and lovely right to the end.

Yeah, like, we've actually answered this question a few times and yeah, like, with the experiment and the amount of hours you film and they can only squeeze a short amount of things into each episode. So, you know, context gets left out a lot of the time. But in terms of the edit of people, I think it's a pretty good representation of who everyone is with the edit.

A very good representation. Oh! Well said, guys. People that don't come across well in their edit always blame the edit. Exactly. It's a tale as old as time, that saying. Yeah. For them to edit you saying something bad,

you kind of have to have said something bad. Oh, exactly. No one puts words in your mouth. Like, everything that, I mean, me personally, everything I said, I said, no one told me to say anything. So, you know, that was how my edit went because that's the things I said, I said. So, you know, you've got to live with what you say and that's that. Yeah, like I said, the context is sometimes left out,

but the storyline is still correct. Gotcha. The context. You guys are actually saying quite a lot without saying a lot, which I really, really appreciate. Can I ask you, there was a moment where, because, you know, you guys had dated before and then, I mean, it was such a great story,

but there was a moment where there was a fear that you guys were just going to be mates. You're just going to be friends. How did you push past being friends and turning on that romantic switch? Because I think Vaughn and I actually have some chemistry and I think that there is There has been rumours before and I just wonder

can friends become lovers? In support. That sounded like I was laughing in your face. I was laughing with you, I think. It's not laughable, Vaughn, that I would be an attractive woman. Okay, man. You're going to drag bloody Jeff into this?

Jeff's just like let me out of this man how did you push through it how did you push past that as friends I think the turning point for us was definitely like confessions week

and intimacy week when you know the experts set tasks for you that make you become very vulnerable and

I think seeing that softer side to each other, that's when our feelings really just like shifted because when we did date in the past, you know, we're freshly out of long-term relationships. It was very surface level. It was just a bit of fun.

And then we both knew that it wasn't going anywhere. So we just kind of fizzled. But I think like when you do see that softer side of someone and it's consistent, you know, it's not like you do one task and you go back to normal. It's like task after task after task. And yeah, I think that was the turning point for both of us was probably week three in the experiment.

Are you still friends with anyone on the show? Or are you sort of just like gone off into the sunset and just sort of, you know, turned your back on it all? No, we're still friends with a lot of people. You know, literally just before, you know, we're talking to you guys, I was just chatting to Dave on the phone and we're both chatting to Jamie on a group message and, you know,

we're friends with a lot of people. Obviously there's some we're not friends with, but we won't talk about them. I saw bloody how Jeff, I sort of want you to, but I get it. I get it. Well, guys, honestly, I've really enjoyed this season. I think you guys have been just so beautiful to watch,

and I wish you all the best of luck. Maybe, you know, babies and real marriage and all sorts in the future. Or like going on the block together and blowing your relationship apart. That's it. No, don't go on the block. Don't renovate. Whatever you do, don't renovate a house, guys. Jeff and Ree, thank you so much for joining us.

Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Have a good day. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. We've got a tropical cyclone heading towards New Zealand. Tropical cyclone Tam. It was named last night. Not as good as a tropical snow or ice block.

Oh, my God. Two years, is it two years, three years, Last night Not as good as a tropical snow Or an ice block Or a Oh my god I was gonna say Two years Is it two years Three years The tropical snow Hasn't come back Yeah

The frugitropical snow What about a tropical cyclone Tim Tam Oh dude And it just rained Chocolate biscuits Dude I'd be outside I'd be outside

With a bucket You know when you're a kid You know when you're a kid And you go outside With a bowl When it was hailing And you collect the hail And you put it in the freezer

And you'll be like Hail forever It is gonna ruin It is gonna ruin Our Easter long weekend plans You're a kid and you go outside with a bowl when it was hailing and you collect the hail and you put it in the freezer and you'll be like, hail forever. It is going to ruin our Easter long weekend plans. The Cyclone. We're going to chat to Philip Duncan from weatherwatch.co.nz to see what you can expect for your long weekend. But right now, let's turn to the producer's booth because apparently Shannon has a hack.

Shannon, hello. Good morning. Good morning. Now, I know we're going into some horrible weather, as you've just discussed, but I believe weather is transentennial. Transendennial? Tenial.

I don't even know what word you're actually trying to say. Transcendental? Yeah. Transitional? Transitional. No, I mean, like, who cares? Like, it doesn't... Shannon, if if you're gonna try and use big words transcendental transcendental transcendental transcendental i've learned my hat no just transcendental transcendental i've learned my hack from

tiktok and they've got summer coming and we don't but I believe that we are one world and that my hack, even though it's winter, we're going into winter in a cyclone, a summer hack still applies because weather is transcendental. You may be going away

soon or you could use it next summer maybe. Exactly. Why don't we just hold on to you doing this till next summer then? Because people will forget by the time summer comes around. Because we needed a break. Gotcha. Now I'm all on board. I'm all on board.

So my hack is, if you're at the beach, there's nothing worse than a sandy foot back into your jandal or your crocs or something. It just feels yucky. And so my hack is, take a plastic bag with you to the beach. When you go towards the water, take the bag and just fill it up. Carry it back with you and just plonk it by your car. Just leave it there.

Then when you're done with your fun day in the sun, you take your feet and you dip them in and then straight into your crock. Or your jandu. But won't... Even Carwen's got a problem with it. Even Carwen's got a problem with it. It's going to evaporate. Blindly team Shannon.

There's a crack in the sisterhood. It's water in summer. It's going to evaporate. How hot do you think the sun is? Water doesn't evaporate that quick. I want to know where we're getting our plastic bags from because Jacinda put an end to it. Every mum has a drawer filled with plastic bags.

Just hit up your mum. How are you getting the plastic bag to stay standing up? They've got holes in them. No, they don't. The handles. I'm not filling it all the way up. Enough to bathe your foot, but not enough for it to evaporate.

Okay, so you can take a zip slide bag, but then you have to take a really big one to get your hoof in there. Yeah. And I've got this wonderful invention that you guys, I don't know if you guys have heard of these things. Yeah. Buckets. Oh, wow.

Okay. They're kind of like a hard plastic bag. Describe them more. Describe them more. They're a hard plastic bag, Hayley. I don't want to pay too much. How much shall I pay for this bucket? Dude, this is the other good thing about buckets.

Dirt cheap. Right. Like how much? Dirt cheap. Like you can, how much? Dirt cheap. Like, you can get a really big one, a big, really big orange one from Mitre 10 that says Mitre 10 on the side for like 10 bucks with a lid. Oh. And that would fit all your feet.

All the feet. All the feet. All the feet. Right. But I've just sold you on a big bucket. You can get a little bucket. Which are lighter. Lighter.

Because you're carrying this water in them. Wow. Okay. There's these great buckets I love that come full of cookies. At Christmas time. And then after you've used them for cookies, you can use them for all sorts of other bucket related activities. What I'm feeling is that my hack is transcendental between us all.

We're all agreeing that this hack is here forughan agrees that washing your feet off at the car, I think we're all agreeing it five stars. Well, see, you know transcendental means like... Yeah, of the spiritual realm. That's what I'm talking about. Yes, thank you. Welcome. But what's that got to do?

Yeah, okay. Even though it's winter here. No, no. So you want people to be taking more plastic bags got to do. Even though it's transient? So you want people to be taking more plastic bags to the ocean which is already full of plastic. Yeah, but to reuse, not to chuck in. Again, use a bucket. You know, I did forget about those.

I will say on TikTok, everyone's taking the plastic bag. I guess in America they also have plastic bags. I think what I'm realising Is TikTok's the issue Yeah As I'm speaking I'm hearing it

Okay Some more suggestions She is hearing it That are 100% better Than your shit idea Of a plastic bag Somebody said Mop buckets

Those mop buckets Are even foot shaped Oh they are Yeah They're even foot shaped So you can get both feet In there at the same time. That's a great idea.

Keep a mop bucket in the car. No one will ever ask why you're doing that because of closets. So somebody said those cookie time buckets are our car spew buckets for the kids.

Perfect size for a kid to spill in. Yeah, perfect size. And then we'll rinse them out and do it all over again and then do what we did growing up. The spew bowl is also

the bowl that mum makes instant pudding in. Yeah. Yum. The jelly bowl. They were all the same bowl. The spew bowl is also the bowl that mum makes instant pudding in. Yes. Yum. The jelly bowl. They were all the same bowl. The spew bowl. Later in my life, the spew bowl, which I remembered so clearly,

as the spew bowl became the ambrosia bowl. Oh, lovely. Oh, yes. A little ambrosia in the spew bowl. Bowls in the 80s and 90s. The best bowls. You guys should hear about these things called drink bottles. Yeah.

Because it's... Yes! It's not enough, though. I think what I'm trying to explain is the bathing action, and then you just put your foot right into the shoe. Do you know what? Somebody else keeps a... We grew up, we always had a bottle of baby powder in the car.

Talc. Yeah. And when you get in, you put your feet out, and if they're wet and sandy, you squirt the talc on. It automatically absorbs everything and the sand will just brush off very easily. Now that's a hack. Your plastic bag's being made fun of, but

carrying around talc? In the car though. I'd rather talc than a plastic bag, yeah. Isn't it banned? Isn't it bad for you? Okay, let's give I'm going to give that two. Two stars. I'll take two. Yeah, I was going to say her hack loan, and we branched into some really good ideas.

Yeah, but I don't think she'd give anything transcendental to that. Transcendental, yeah. I mean, I'm going to, transcendental is actually a place where you get into dental care if you're also transitioning. Yeah, okay, right. Because I don't care what gender my dentist identifies as. That's completely up to them as long as they're doing a great job in my mouth. To clarify, I meant the version of when things supersede what's happening.

I meant that something that's happening in America happens here. Shannon, if you're explaining, you're losing. Shannon's getting a 1.5 meant that like something that's happening in America happens here. Shannon, Shannon, if you're explaining you're losing. Shannon's getting a 1.5 from me. Remember that. Put it on a cone then. That is the slogan for Shannon's axe. If you're explaining

you're losing. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. Well, Easter was supposed to be the weekend. It's long and it gives us everything we need. Sun and... Nice weather for one more.

Features. Yeah. Our last go at a summery autumn. Barney's headed to absolutely break our hearts. We say good morning to Philip Duncan from Weatherwatch. Hello. Hello, hello. You son of a bitch.

Hey, again. What's wrong with you? If you can control the weather, why are you making it nice? I know, right? Sorry. By the way, that's the best intro I've ever had on any of my careers. I appreciate you saying so. Now, it was named last night by the, am I right in saying the Fiji Meteorological Service?

Yep. The Tropical Cyclone TAM. TAM, yeah. Is that short for Tamsin? Who knows? Or Tim Tam. Every time it's a random name. But to be honest with you, the actual formation of the Tropical Cyclone doesn't

change the forecast. The forecast was already predicting severe weather and this storm is at the same time that it powered up to a Tropical Cyclone, it's leaving the tropics. So if it's not in the tropics, it can't be a tropical cyclone. And so it's going to be leaving the tropics, morphing into a new system, and that's going to be bringing scattered severe weather around the country, especially the top of both of the main islands.

Am I going to be able to fly away for my holiday tomorrow, Philip? Potentially. It depends on where you're flying and what plane you're flying on. Oh, great. Big one. Cancellations and delays tomorrow, especially around the regional airports. If you're flying on a plane with a propeller in the North Island,

there's a chance that there might be delays or even cancellations. Right, okay. Because we are, the North Island, Upper North Island, Auckland, getting strong winds tomorrow, or even today.

Yeah, so there are two things happening. There's a really big high pressure zone, what we normally associate with sunny weather or light winds. That's going to be east of the country. Then you've got the low coming down from the north. Between the two, there's what we call a squash zone. That's really windy northeasterlies. That's starting now, but it peaks tomorrow, Friday,

over the top of the North Island. And then the rain really sets in. That's already starting now, but the peaks tomorrow, Friday, over the top of the North Island. And then the rain really sets in. That's already starting now, but the bulk of that is tomorrow and then going into Friday. And so the winds might fall apart a bit into the weekend for some places, but the rain might linger at the top, like the northeast corner of the North Island,

Bay of Plenty over towards East Cape, and the northwest of the South Island, Nelson over to the west coast. Well, nobody holidays in those places you've just mentioned. I'm not like I'm heading to those exact spots. Perfect. It is an amazing time. Wow.

And what about the rest of the South Island for the long weekend, Philip? How are they looking? Yeah, so we're getting a few complaints from the South Island going, what's all this talk about the storm? It doesn't look that bad. And that's because the South Island isn't really, a big chunk of it isn't caught up in it. So the northern and western sides of the South Island rain, there might be some strong winds as well around the island for a time. But eastern areas, Canterbury, Otago, Southland, they're not

looking like big rainfall totals, neither are Wanganui, Manawatu area. So it's not everyone that's going to be getting severe weather. That's why it's not like a tropical cyclone where all the storm is right wherever the storm goes. This gets broken up, spreads out, and so some areas get severe weather. Others just get the usual kind of typical New Zealand April weekend. As someone that's fairly fresh in the memory of the floods associated with Gabriel, Gabriel, Gabriela, Gabriel, heartbreaking woman, flooded our town. What are we more worried about, the wind or the rain?

Well, with this one, wind and rain is a problem for the top of the North Island. So areas like Coromandel Peninsula, Auckland, Northland, maybe parts of Bay of Plenty. Those are the areas where they get a double whammy. Other areas, the rain breaks up more, and so you might just sort of more have a rain event where rain keeps on going. The other thing is once the front passes through, or the main rain band, the squash zone, moves through by Friday, we're sort of left with instability from that low-pressure zone. So if you go back to the Auckland anniversary flood,

we had a squash zone that came through before it with a whole lot of wind and rain. It didn't actually cause too many problems. The main flood was caused by an isolated thunderstorm. It actually didn't have thunder, but it was a thunderstorm cloud that produced that big flood. That was an isolated random event. So while there are similar things going on here,

you don't always get a carbon copy. In fact, almost never do you get a carbon copy. Right. As I'm saying that, does anyone know what a carbon copy is anymore? I've heard of it. I mean, sort of. It's in your email field, isn't it? You go to and then you cc and then you bcc.

Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so a soggy weekend for a lot of holidaymakers in the North Island. Has it ever been pointed out, Philip, that if someone was to yell your name, it would also sound like they were about to yell the F word? F-I-L-I-E. F-I-L-I-E. F-I-L-I-E.

I get that. Yeah, well, that sounds just like any one of my friends talking to me. I just, I just. We know you are not at all to blame, and thank you for clarifying. No, you can blame me. It's fine. Just give me credit when it's really sunny and praise me for that. No, that's not how the human mind works at all.

You can check out weatherwatch.co.nz. Philip Duncan from Weatherwatch. Thank you again so much for your wise knowledge. My pleasure. Cheers, guys. Next on the show, there's looking to be some changes to how we get our driver's licenses in New Zealand. Really? So we thought we'd

take those calls of when you failed. Oh, I failed. Did you? Did I know that? Yeah, I'll tell you why soon. The government is looking to change the driver's

license rules. So there'll be, instead of two tests, just one practical test. Great. More terrible drivers on the road. Like the good old days. Because that's what it was back in the day. It was you did the multiple choice and then the oral questions to get your learners. And then you could take that down by doing a driving course.

Yeah. And then you did a test to get you restricted. And then it was just a matter of time. Yeah. So I think that's what they're looking to change it to. Yeah. But it's open to submissions, yada, yada, yada. But it's got us talking.

And we want to take your calls now. Text in 9696. Why did you fail your practical driver's test? Why? Do you know, the thing that I find hilarious is that I failed my full license and six, why did you fail your practical driver's test? Why? The thing that I find hilarious is that I failed my full licence because I didn't talk enough and I've never been told that in my life.

Never ever. Weren't you talking? Pointing out the hazards. I wasn't like, there's a man and he may throw himself in front of my car. That's all you say right when they're like the hazards. There's a power pole. Those things fall down every now and then.

I went overboard with mine. I said every hazard. I even said the sky could fall. Yeah, it could. Yes, you're supposed to. Just hover your bases. Yeah, yeah. There could be fish falling from the sky.

None of us listened to chicken looking and look where we ended up. Acorns everywhere. So 0800-DARLS-IT at it. We want to take your calls now. Text in 9696. What was the reason you failed your practical driving test? Was it, did you crash? I knew someone that

didn't put their seatbelt on and literally drove out onto the road and the person was like, flick around and go back in and they were like, why? Why do you think? Do you remember? I mentioned this before. A friend was driving and they told him to turn down a one-way street

and it was a trick. And they did it. And then they were just like, you failed. Gotcha. Don't trick me. Feeling it was like a late Friday. Maybe they wanted to go home. I don't know.

Or he probably had a couple of beers. 0800-DARLS-80M is number 9696 to text it. Why you failed your driver's test. Because the government's looking at making it, again, just one practical driving test instead of two. Some great messages coming in. I failed and I didn't even get in the car. I failed the eye test.

I'd been looking down a microscope for three hours previously and it messed with my eyes. And she said, can you read out the third line? And I said, what third line? Oh, no. They still took my photo for the license, even though I didn't get it. And I had tears streaming down my face.

Oh. Why would they do that to you? Oh, then you've got to wait 10 years to get a new photo. One of the reasons my cousin was told she'd failed the driving test was at a light. She was parked at the traffic lights behind a cop, and the light went green and the cop wasn't moving, so she beeped him.

I mean, fair enough. I'll happily beep a cop. Oh, yeah, yeah. Will you? Get them moving. Oh, I wouldn't beep a cop. Yeah. They're all just drivers.

We're all just drivers on the road, shooting the road. If your sirens aren't on, I'll give you a beep. There's drivers that can give you a ticket, Hayley. No, what are they going to give me a ticket for? Beeping them. They should have moved when the light went green. My favourite message that we got on Instagram

was someone who stopped for an ambulance. The lights were off, so it's just a normal car. And they failed for it. I would have thought you would respect the first responders. Laura, good morning. Why did you fail your practical test? I had a very small car with a very small engine. The examiner was a very large woman and we had to go up a hill.

My car couldn't take it. And I failed for going too slow. Wait, your car struggled under the weight. I imagine this is like in Zootopia where there are hippopotamuses or elephants doing the instructions. Wait, was this, were you driving a manual or an automatic? It was an automatic. A little automatic. A little automatic.

A little gutless automatic. So it wasn't your fault for not having it in the right gear or stalling or anything. It's just the car couldn't handle it. Nothing I could do. Oh, I would have just let you pass because of it. Yeah. Somebody else said they messaged him about having a large instructor as well. Even with the seat right back, he was taking up the whole space.

He was tall and big. Oh, wow. And every time I put the gear, the gears into second, I'd knock his knee and he'd be like, oh, and I'd be like, oh, I'm really sorry about that. And he's like, no, no, don't be sorry. Just concentrate on driving. Keep your texts coming in. Oh, God.

9696, why did you fail your driver's test? Somebody said, my granny failed a driving test many years ago. The driving instructor said, you're driving along and you see a diamond on the road. What do you do? And she said, stop immediately and pick it up. Yeah. What kind of a question is that?

I know. There's a few of these. Oh, no. The diamond for the crossing. The shape. Oh, my God. I only just figured that out. Shannon's confused.

What is a diamond? The diamond's not a giveaway. The diamond is. You don't know what the diamond is? Pedestrian crossing? Yeah, pedestrian. Is that what the diamond is? It's coming up to a pedestrian crossing.

There's a diamond shape. There's a diamond kite shape. Shannon is looking at me like I'm speaking another language. That's transcendental. I forgot about it too. I only speak in transcendennial. Transcendennial. Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about.

Yeah, before you come up to a crossing, there's a diamond. You just go faster. Oh, my God. I didn't even click. I thought it was a trick question and Granny was first. I was like, how would you spot a diamond if you're just driving along? They're so tiny. Maybe it's sparkles. Yeah, sparkles. I thought it was a trick question and Granny was first. I was like, how would you spot a diamond if you're just driving along and they're so tiny? Maybe it's sparkles? Sparkles, I thought it was sparkles.

But I mean, if it was an actual diamond, you would 100% stop and pick it up because thousands of dollars. My brother failed for going too slow past the school during school holidays because there's no need to go that slow past the school if the children are in there. Wait. No, but that's if it's a different, if they've got signs that change, right? No, you always slow down past the school. Yeah, you always go speedy. Just for safety's sake. Oh, wait, but that's if it's a different, if they've got signs that change, right? No, you always slow down past the school. Yeah, you always go to the safety. Oh, wait, but they got a fine.

They failed because it was school holidays and there was no children in the school and the driving instructors, you should have known it's school holidays and there's no children to be worried about. Oh, get out of here. How stupid. My son failed last week for stopping at a courtesy,

as a courtesy crossing, as a child was about to run out, told he was not obliged to stop. What? I always, I'll always stop for a child. Yes, same. Not for a possum. Same.

Yeah, I don't have a habit of barrelling through children. Or a rabbit. I tap the brakes for a cat, but I'm not putting myself in danger. Four. I tap the brakes, I tap the brakes, I'm not locking up, baby. I'm not locking up. That cat shouldn't be on the road. Oh, no, I'm not going to say that.

Can you believe that, Hayley? That is actually disgusting from you. I won't even tap my brakes if you are in front of my car now. In fact. I'm barreling through. Please do. In fact, I'll speed up. Yes, please.

Hit me. In fact, actually, I may target you and I may steer the wheel in your direction. Yes. I don't want to die, but I tell you what, six weeks in a coma. Imagine that. Would you feel quite good after that? I mean, brain swelling and stuff. All the bad stuff. Put that aside for a moment.

Just six weeks. And your arms are up in those things and casts and stuff. Oh, jelly! You'll get so much jelly. Hospital holiday. Oh, jelly. Jelly. You'll get so much jelly. So much jelly. Yeah. Hospital holiday. I long for it. I had parked two cars

from a corner slash intersection. I was very careful to use my mirrors and look over my shoulder before I pulled out of the park to start my test. As I went to pull out, a car came whipping around the corner and hit the front of my car. But it was an instant fail. What? Yeah. It's not your fault.

No, it's the other dude's. A girl that I went to high school with failed a restricted because she T-boned somebody when she ran through a stop sign. Is that a few points off or is that an instant fail as well? I reckon this will do it. Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley.

Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Hayley. So, guys, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. So guys, I'm in Melbourne at the moment and I am performing my show and you both have seen my show. It's about the wonderful and wild world of erotica and as part of

the show. I for one thought it was filthy. Yeah. I actually was protesting with my church outside but the show still went ahead. Yeah. So Fletch actually, yeah actually he laid down on the tram tracks in Christchurch in protest and I remember it was very powerful And I chickened out as the tram was coming because I didn't want to get cut in half

Yeah that's right I'm a terrible protester You're really bad at it And I get hungry and I want to go home Yeah and Vaughn kept hosing me with holy water Like the whole thing, I mean I know you guys were very upset I had a lot of bliss and then I I get hungry and I want to go home. Yeah, and Vaughn kept hosing me with holy water. Like the whole thing. I mean, I know you guys were very upset.

I had a lot of bliss. And then I plundered into my Karcher water blaster because my protest is I have to get them sponsored. Right, okay. When I do protests. And then I use my Karcher 3200 PSI beautiful water blaster. It's not meant for people. No, it was way away. So it was getting a good spread on the holy water.

No, no, you took a layer of skin off of me. That's why I'm so smooth and young looking. Yeah. You exfoliated me. And I guess you're welcome. Oh no, and I thank you. You know, people are like, she's had Botox. She's had Botox. I'm like, no, I got water blasted. She's been water blasted with holy water.

Yeah. So, listen, this show, when it was in New Zealand last year, was strictly R18. And I was very clear to say, this show, when it was in New Zealand last year, was strictly R18. And I was very clear to say, you know, involves sexual themes and coarse language and that kind of stuff. We're actually somewhere... Can I ask a serious question? When all the books, all the movies,

all the TV shows that are in New Zealand all have to be watched by the chief censor and then given a rating like R18 or M or whatever. But you can do any comedy show and it doesn't. That's weird, eh? I could poop on stage in front of children, you know, and it would just... I wouldn't.

It would be okay. That's how my friend Daryl ended up on a list. I know, but there is no... You declare it. Daryl's finding it very hard to stay in the suburb to live in. Daryl's really struggling because there's schools everywhere. Aye, we live in such a small country, he's had to move into the mountains. Poor Daryl.

Yeah, poor Daryl. I know, it was all a big misunderstanding. He's actually the only person in New Zealand that loves a school being closed down. He's a huge fan of a rural school being closed down. Anyway, to say that the show is inappropriate is an understatement. I come out last night. You're upset about Daryl Darling. I'm just taking my glasses off.

I've really got to shoot that guy a message. Hard to break back into the performing arts scene when you're literally banned from anywhere with a stage. It's so hard. It's so hard. So, listen, I come out on stage last night and I immediately clock someone in the front row. It's a slightly smaller crowd for a Tuesday.

Oh, she's not doing as well. Sorry. I'm not. I'm doing my best. Oh, no'm not. I'm doing my best. Oh, no, that was so bad. Wait, she's too tired. She's too tired for these jokes. I kind of felt a change.

That's why I chucked the Daryl thing in there. I was, like, distracted and, like, she said before she's tired. You're an unkind man. I think you're a bad person. Wait, I thought we liked ribbing each other. Are we not? Nah, you've got to read the room.

She's too tired. As soon as I said it on me, she's too tired for this. I think ribbing occurs when you've had more than one and a half hours sleep. Okay. Okay. I apologise. Okay. This is not ribbing for her pleasure. Okay. This is not ribbed for my pleasure. Okay. Anyway, so I come out on the stage last night

I come out on the stage last night and I immediately clock that there is a child. Okay. And I start singing and I look him in the eye and I go, how old are you, my dude? And he goes, and I didn't hear him. And I thought, okay. Was it Bob Dylan? It was a young Bob Dylan. Anyway, I start the show after my first song and I have to address it because he's severely young looking.

And he's 15. People don't say, generally people don't say severely young looking. It makes it sound bad. Yeah, yeah. Oh, he was severely disfigured. No, yes, but can you picture

some 15 year olds that you're like, they play rugby and they could be in the All Blacks next year. This was the kind of 15 year old that you were like, are you 10?

Right. Okay. Yeah, yeah. It's unclear. I asked him how old he is. He's 15. I look next to him. I say, is that mum?

And she goes, yes. I says, is that dad? She goes, yes. And I said, troops, buckle in, and we're in for a wild ride. Then I start playing audio clips from smart books that I've listened to that are full noise. I play some of the Devil of Dublin from Quinn. I play, you know the show. It's completely inappropriate. At one point

I see dad lead into mum's ear and be like so, so, so, so, so, so, so. Yeah, wow. And I just pause one more time and I was like guys, please, like you will not offend me. You 100% can take your child son and you can leave.

And then I think there was two. Do you know what? It's probably like, it's probably nothing he hasn't seen or heard or talked about, but like, it's just that he's there with his parents. And you said in between mum and dad, eh? No, no, no. It was him, then mum, then dad. Oh, okay.

Oh, right. Okay. He wasn't flanked. Next to him was no one. Anyway, I just said to the guy, look, I won't look you in the eye. That's all I said was that during the whole show, I said, okay, my dude, well, you're going to be fine. Because they said, no, no, we're going all right.

And I said, okay, well, listen, I just won't look you in the eye. And he just was looking down the whole time. This poor child, I mean, absolutely slapped him in the face of this show. Mum and dad were honestly having the worst time. And, you know, they should have taken my little crumb that I gave them to leave because, you know, that show just gets worse and worse and worse. I would have told him to whip out his iPad and chuck some headphones on and be one of those kids. You know those kids

anywhere they are they're on an iPad with headphones. Oh my god, restaurants or, you know, they're supposed to be being entertained but they're on an iPad with headphones on. Oh, I know. There's that moment in my show, I don't know if you remember the story that I tell about the Italian guy and we hooked up and he went

and he grabbed the things and he, you know. So I, yeah, like he had to listen to that. Okay. Is Australia different? Do they have a different like age limit or something? So what I said, I said something's been lost here. I don't know if it's the sort of time zone change, you know, the two hour delay. Yeah.

Yeah, the poor bugger. Honestly, I think he's going to be going to school today just like, man. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Terrible news regarding teddy bears or soft, more soft child toys that you might still have on your hands. I guess you don't keep the hard ones as much, do you? No. Because they're not nice to cuddle.

Nah, you keep the softer ones. Like, I don't know a man who's, I don't know, growing up in his 30s that's still got his Tonka truck in bed. Whereas Hayley has her teddy bear from when she was a kid still in bed every night. Yeah. I got it when I was four years old. I'm 36 this year.

And I sleep with him every single night. And I mean, I struggle without him. So here's something about quali, alright? And here's something I know when you read these scientific tests and they say things have got more bacteria than a toilet seat. It doesn't all mean bad bacteria, right? Toilet seats are cleaned more often than most places so they don't

tend to have as much living bacteria as things that don't get washed as much or us. We're just a living pile of bacteria. It's all good for your gut health. Well, E. coli is not, and neither is Staphylococcus aureus. Oh, be careful. Staphylococcus aureus.

Staphylococcus aureus. Which was also your Rock Quest bad name. Which is almost right. We played industrial metal. Yes, yes, yes. By Germany. And also a touch of the rave culture. But teddy bears can carry twice as many of these harmful bacteria alike

as the good bacteria or bacteria that's neither here nor there. 30% of childhood toys tested showed high contamination levels. According to ATP bioluminescence tests, that's the one where they spray it and rave a black light over it. Ooh, yuck. No one wants to see those results. It lights up. No.

Listen. Because have you given yours a wash? Hell yeah. What's Kweli's washing regimen? I used to wash him quite a lot when he would get stanky because Aaron would be like, he's stanky. Ooh, yuck. And then I used to give him to my mum to wash for a bit,

but it has been, I reckon, yeah, like well over five, six, seven years. Ooh, yuck. Because he is older and he's so much more delicate now and I sleep with him every night and not just sleep with, like I hold him all night. He's picking up a fair bit of breast sweat. Yeah. He's got a lot of tat sweat.

He's got a breast mop at this stage. Yeah. He does. A titty bear, if you will. Got it, got it, got it. That was what I was after. That was the one I wanted to do. Oh, it wasn't as good as I think you felt it was. Could you dry clean it then? Would that be better? No. I would never. I would never.

There's nothing worth, you know, like I just, he's too precious. I just wouldn't even, it's like, I'll just take the E. coli. You'll risk the harmful bacteria.

He gets like kisses and he gets cuddles. There's microbes in there that will cause infections if it's to come up against an open wound, for example, respiratory issues and skin problems. The dust mites or possibly even hidden mould in them

can also trigger and worsen asthma. Yeah, but there's probably dust mites and hidden mould with a newborn, do you know what I mean? And you're getting cuddled, you know, so. Well, I'm not being cuddled and I am riddled with dust mites, so you are halfway there. Experts recommend washing a stuffed toy regularly using a gentle cycle in one of those laundry bags that you put your braz and your knickers in?

Oh, yep. Okay. Absolutely not. This thing is an antique treasure. You are in Australia now. Have you thought about just buying a new one and replacing them? Oh, why don't I just buy and replace a new fletch while I'm here? It's like saying, oh, you'll just go down to the local retirement home

and get a new grandma. You can't do that. It's not like that. You can probably trick them into thinking that you're a grandma. And then you get more money. What? Because she is richer than your actual grandma. It's amoral life.

The one thing I have thought about is in New Zealand, there is a toy hospital that specialises in fixing and repairing old toys. What is it? If you call 111, what ambulance comes for your teddy bear? It's the Wiggles big red car. I thought it'd be a wooden car, to be honest, with wooden wheels. Or one of your Tonka trucks, yeah.

You could actually lay like... Is Kweli a him or a her or non-binary? Thank you for asking because it is complicated. Kweli was assigned female at birth because Kweli arrived with a smaller, a bebe of sorts, as if it was in the mother's pouch. However, Kweli has never identified as a woman, has always identified as a man. Definitely has chlamydia because they all have chlamydia.

Well, they have koala chlamydia, okay? Yeah, it's different. Also, look at my bag that I got at the markets yesterday. Well, the radio listeners now cannot, podcast and radio listeners cannot hear this, but Hayley bought a handbag that is shaped like a koala. They can't see it. I think let's get a photo of that on social.

What is the material that that's made of? Well, I'm going to put it in quotes. Genuinely. Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. It's Redhead Week at Fact of the Day. It's a port of week where we remind our ginger friends that we love them dearly. Hey, you were away yesterday, but it was a fascinating fact

about pain tolerance. Oh, yes, I've heard this before. Yeah, and then so people with red hair are more likely to be scared of the dentist because they've been told, no, this isn't going to hurt, but obviously it did hurt them. And when we finished Fact of the Day, so many people messaged in saying, yeah,

that they also, like, or some people woke up during surgery. Yeah, someone woke up during a proper, like, or some people woke up during surgery. Yeah, someone woke up during, like, a proper, like, under surgery. Not like a local anesthetic, like a proper one

and the anesthesiologist. Is that what they're called? Those people? Anna. I forget her last name. Yeah, anesthesiologist. She's a Greek anesthesiologist.

She walks in, she's like, all right, you fellas, who wants to go non-ass for a bit, eh? My name's anaesthesiologist. This is my nanas old Greek anaesthesiologist recipe.

Are we here to have it with a calzone? Anyway, that may be inappropriate, but it leads us nicely on to today's fact of the day, which is about the ancient Greeks and the ginger connection. Oh, okay. So you've been to the Mediterranean, Fletch. Hayley, you've been to the Mediterranean. Vaughan, ancient Greeks and the ginger connection. Oh, okay. So you've been to the Mediterranean, Fletch. Hayley, you've been to the Mediterranean. Vaughan, you've... I have. I have been to Greece, so I guess I can say I've been to the

Mediterranean as well. Oh, he was going to be like, play the victim there. I was going to have a boo-hoo. But you and I have been to Greece. We did. We had a great time. We had a great time. Remember you fell off the scooter. I know. And went under a little delivery truck. That's right. Like Jason Bourne. No. I cried. It went under a little delivery truck. That's right. Like Jason Bourne. No.

I cry. It wasn't like that at all. So ancient Greek, ancient, obviously people are native to the Mediterranean area. Olive skin, dark hair.

Yeah. Beautiful. Beautiful people, right? You get a little Mediterranean vibe at the moment. Yeah, you do.

So you're almost a bit too brown to be trying to enter the US of A at the moment. Oh, mate, they'll probably whip out a gun. You'll get iced straight back out of there. Or end up in a neat little holiday camp with a big, tall barbed wire fence. But that's all right.

They'll look after you. So people with darker skin, olive tones, dark eyes, dark hair, that was the norm. So every now and then when a redheaded person would pop up, recessive gene, of course, they were very wary of them. In fact, ancient Greeks believed that when gingers died, they would come back as vampires. Wild.

Yeah. It was sort of a broader, it wasn't like this weird little niche idea. It was sort of broadly accepted that when a person with red hair died, they needed to be buried and weighed down a bit more so that if they came back to life in the form of a vampire, they couldn't get out. The reasons being, red hair was very rare, obviously, and when someone had pale skin and

far-away red hair, it was suspicious and different. We're having a bit of a hoh moment, but this is still a problem around the world. When someone's different to us, we are suspicious of them. It's called racism. Blood associations, they believe that the red hair may have been linked with blood and violence

and the blood was leaking into the hair, which changed the colour and it was more common in the northern regions of Greece and those people were seen as like barbarian outsiders but really they were just northern so it was closer to the area where red hair had developed. So there was all sorts of precautions taken after death to make sure that if the redheads

did come back from the dead as a vampire, they wouldn't be able to feed on the blood of others. Now, it never happened. No. But often things don't need to happen for people to imagine and believe wholeheartedly that they did. See, people have even going way back, people have always believed things and been stupid.

Interesting. They have actually, yeah. Fascinating. have always believed things and been stupid. Interesting. They have, actually, yeah. Fascinating. It's part of the human condition to believe BS. Yeah, believe something that has no backing. So today's fact of the day is that the ancient Greeks and the people of the Mediterranean, thousands of years ago, believed that people with red hair would come back as vampires. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Now, something happened to me last week, and I thought we've got to bring back Weird Tingly Wingly Wednesday. Because this was just so weird. Okay. Tell me more about this. Okay, so next week I'm going away, and the city that I'm going to be in,

a long time ago, I've got a friend that lives there and I haven't spoken to this friend for, I want to say, 10 or 11 years. Oh, wow. And I was like, I wonder if they're still around. It'd be good to catch up for a drink. And then I didn't think anything else of it. I'm like, I'll be busy. I'm with friends, you know. Yada, yada.

And then the next day, the next day, he messages me and says, hey man, how are you? And I'm just like, weird tingly wingly Wednesday. Wingly tingly Polly. Like, haven't spoken

France, stop it. Haven't spoken in like 10 or 11 years. Thought of him. Haven't even, yeah, until like just the day before and then he messages as well. Like that's, is there a name for that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What is the name for this?

I've asked ChatGPT. Is there a name for that? Like it's not serendipity is a lucky coincidence. Like synchronicity is a meaningful coincidence. Telepathy is thinking of each other at the same time. Is it a name for that? Like, it's not serendipity is a lucky coincidence. Like, synchronicity is a meaningful coincidence. Telepathy is thinking of each other at the same time. Is it a psychic connection? Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, you put it out into the universe, the connection.

Or as whoever is controlling this giant simulation of Sims that we're living in. Yeah. It's Jesus. It's Jesus. Could be Jesus. Or it's just a teenager sitting at a computer or a phone, you know? Yeah, a teenage alien who's in charge of our quadrant. Yeah, playing Sims.

Sims 42. I don't know. But yeah, isn't that weird? Yeah, I've had moments like this. You never remember them in the, you know, like I've definitely had this feeling where you're like, what the hell? Mine's always like I'll be thinking of an obscure word or something. Yeah. You know?

And I'll be like, oh my God, I haven't really heard that word. And then suddenly like the song in the shop says the word and it's like this random thing and you're like, what the hell? I feel that that's different. It's like when you buy a car and you're like, I haven't seen too many of these on the road.

And then you see them everywhere. It's like if you've ever had a broken headlight, you're like, I haven't seen too many of these on the road. And then you see them everywhere. It's like if you've ever had a broken headlight. You're like, oh my God, I'm going to be the only one with a broken headlight. And then you just notice them everywhere. You start noticing things a little bit more. But I don't know, this just gave me like tingly winglies. And it's Wednesday. So I want to take some calls from people now.

I look forward to a cease and desist from Paul and Gillespie, to be totally honest with you. Oh, no, because we're calling ours Wingly Tingley Weird Wednesday, or whatever. Yeah, yeah. Tingley, Wingly Tingley. Tingley Wingly Wednesday. Have you had a moment like this

or a creepy, scary moment? Or a psychic moment that you just can't explain? You're just like, that was weird. Yeah, I love that. Love that. Oh, 800 dials at M. Do you I love that. Love that. 0800 DALS at M.

Do you think there was an event that made you think of them as obviously you going to the city where they live? He didn't know that I was going, did he? No, no, but did something happen in his life? I don't know. Yeah, even that's unexplainable. It's tingly, wingly, tringly. It's unexplainable.

So we want you to give us a call now, 0800-DARLS-IT-AM. You can text in 9696. Do you have a weird, unexplainable story? A weird, tingly, wingly Wednesday story? And we'll rate your story out of five on the nipple scale. Because you know when you get real, the chills. Why don't we just say on the chills? Nah, I reckon we go the nipple scale.

Okay, sure. Wow, and how hard our nipples go. Has the music changed? Yeah, we'll get to the next song. Because this is a lot nicer. Do you like this better? This is Library of Secrets by Derek Fletcher. Fletcher's your last name.

Weird tingly-wingly Wednesday. That's a two on the nipple scale. I've really got to engage my Mel Robbins Let Them. Yeah. I've really got to engage it because I want to explain 90% of these ones that we're getting. Carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of the time, yeah. Some carbon dioxide.

Oh, stop it. Open a window. But I'm going to let them. Be a believer. Mel Robbins said let them, let them. But my story was tingly-wingly. How many on the nipple scale was that? I got four nipples.

Did you get four on the nipple scale was that? I got four nipples. Did you get four on the nipple? Thinking of a friend that you haven't spoken to in years and they reach out. We want to know your weird, tingly, wingly stories this morning. Emily, good morning. Good morning. Welcome to Tingly, Wingly Wednesday. What's your unexplainable story? So me and my best friend, we

like to play Dress to Impress on Roblox as a 23 and 26 year old woman. Okay, yeah. It's okay. And several times throughout the week, she has messaged me, like I'll be doing something, and she'll just message me out of the blue and be like, oh,

do you want to play Dress to Impress? And I'll be like, I was literally just thinking that, like, not even 10 seconds before. You've got a psychic Roblox connection. You've got a Roblox connection. You've got a Roblox connection. That's crazy. Or you just both solely will find it. The Roblox connection.

Our sleep schedules are, like, opposite. So for her, it's like, oh, I don't know whether she's awake or asleep or whatever. So I'm like, the fact that she just messages me out of the blue, I'm like, I didn't even know you're awake. Do we need to get outside? Do we need to touch grass, as the kids say? It's just Wingly Wednesday, isn't it?

Okay, so what, how many on the nipple scale? I'm giving it two. I've just got two stiff nips. I live with children who are constantly wanting to play Roblox, Dressed to Impress, or other Roblox games, and all of their friends are in that constant state, so I don't find it a huge coincidence. Yeah, right.

Okay, Emily, thank you. Let's go to Bron. Bron, what's your story for Tingly Wingly Wednesday? Morning, guys. How are you all? Really good, thanks, Brian. Good, thank you. Years ago, I had a very good friend,

and we are school teachers, and we used to go walking quite a lot to get out frustrations on the rest of it. Okay. Sometimes we went really early in the morning. Sometimes we went sort of later at night when streetlights and things like that were on. Yep.

One day we were walking, and in the distance ahead of us, about, I don't know, 50 metres or so, one of the streetlights went out, and Julie said, oh, hi, Dad, how are you? And I looked at her and said, are you mad? What are you on? And she said, oh, he just says hello to me every now and then.

Well, several years passed, and unfortunately my friend Julie passed away from cancer. And I belong to one of those mad running groups where you get up early in the morning when it's still really dark and I went running. And on this one occasion, I got a little bit separated from the group. We were on a road, but I just got a little bit separated from them and it was quite dark and I was getting a little bit nervous.

And so I called out quite in my little brave voice, hey, girls, if you're there, I just need you to help me out here and make me feel a little bit braver. And above me, one streetlight winked out. Oh, Gis. It's your Wiggly Wednesday! But Jules made it less safe for you because she took away your light. Oh, my, okay.

Five nips. It did give me weird tingles and I ran a little bit too. They're not very far and I probably got to the next street light and it went back on again. Oh, that's good. That's good.

Five, that's five. That's five. Five stiff nips. Five on the tingly nips scale. Vaughn? Three on the tingly nips scale. Oh, he's up. Oh, you're such a scepter.

You guys are going on and off all the time. How does that not impress you? That's an incredible story, Bron. It's sweet that in your mind she's with you in spirit. That's sweet. I'll give you that. But my nipples aren't rock hard, Bron. You didn't get a shiver down your spine?

A little bit of a tingle on the back? No? No. Okay, Bron, thank you for sharing. We're going to take more calls next for Tingly Wingly Wednesday. 0800 DALES at M. It's Wingly Tingly Mingly Wednesday. Oh, my God.

There are some great stories coming in. We want you to share those stories that gave you the tingles, the unexplained stories. Okay, this one might be a four out of the five on the nipple scale for me. Okay. My granddad lost four fingers in an accident. He passed away when I was 13. My daughter was born missing the exact same four fingers

that he lost 10 years after he passed. No. Oh, wow. What for? Wingly, wingly, wingly. That's reincarnation. That's crazy. What's that? That's crazy What's that?

That's a hell of a coincidence A hell of a coincidence I had a weird tingle moment My left hand middle finger was really sore and achy for no reason A few hours later My daughter in the UK told me that Kyan, my grandson Had had a taxi door slam onto his hand

And I said, which hand? She said Left hand had had a taxi door slam onto his hand. And I said, which hand? She said, left hand. And I said, oh my God, I've got a sore left hand. And she said, oh, it's not his whole hand that's bad. His middle finger is the most bruised and the sorest. Thankfully not broken. Tingly Wingly.

Georgia Burt. That really took Georgia Burt. That really took you, didn't it? I saw the white of her eyes. I just feel like we need to turn the lights off and have a torch under it. Like, it doesn't feel real. Belinda, good morning. Good morning.

Welcome to Tingly Wingly Wednesday. Copyright trademark. Copyright trademark. What is your Tingly Wingly Mingly Wednesday story? All right, get your nips ready. Okay. Okay, nips are ready. That's the hottest thing I've heard all week.

Are we getting them out or are we just getting them ready? My nips are ready. That's the hottest thing I've heard all week. Are we getting them out or are we just getting them ready? Belinda, my nipples are yours. Do it the best you see fit. Perfect. So I enjoy mountain biking and I went for a mountain bike one morning quite early and I chose not

to choose a trail that I normally ride on return, so I chose the road and while I was riding on the road, I heard, help me. Wait, you heard what? Help me. Whisper it. I tried to whisper it, but it didn't come through. So help me, but it was whispered. Help me.

Help me. And then when I returned home, really unfortunate news, somebody had passed away on that trail that I was going to return home on. And I didn't obviously come across that person because I didn't do that trail. But yeah, somebody was there on the trail. What?

That's a lady. It's the spirit. It was the spirit. Wait, so when had they passed away on the trail? That morning. The same morning I was riding. Wait, so you just didn't hear someone who was in the last agonising moments of their life being like, how, mate?

No, they'd already gone. They'd already gone. Are we sure? They were gone, yeah. They were on the trail waiting for somebody to come across them. And it wasn't me that morning. It was somebody else. Because you took a different trail.
