From the ZM Podcast Network. This is Fletchwin and Haley's Big Pod. Brought to you by Chemist Warehouse. The biggest brands at the lowest prices. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughn and Haley. Happy Monday. Not a great start of the week.

Dodgy. Dogey hole. My headphone hole is a little bit. Oh no. Oh, my. We'll fill out a request for that. Yeah, get that fixed. Shot upstairs.

We'll get that fixed for you today, Vorney. Yeah, I appreciate that. over the weekend there is a couple Josh and Jenny they've just broken the Guinness World Record for most kisses in 30 seconds 146

But that's just one Is that doing that Or just like Blah la la la No kiss it Look And it's on the cheek too Duh

Get her on the mouth mate That's ridiculous She should be kissing him back And then they're double the amount of kisses Tecky Yeah I don't know the rules I don't know the rules That whole video looks quite weird

She doesn't look like she's enjoying that. She's going to say it feels up the way he's gripped the chin. She looks locked in. Yeah, she does sort of feel like she's just sort of getting it and not loving it. The top six is coming up and turns out the police have been surveyed and more than... Fancy that. Is it more than half or just under? Yeah, more than half want to quit.

Considered leaving. Tough gig, man. Oh, yeah. Deal with the worst of the worst. Worst of the worst. See things. Yeah. So I got the top six ways to cheer up the police.

Someone of an officer of joy myself Are you? Captain Joy. A officer of Joy. Joy, Sergeant. Sergeant Happiness. Yeah, wow. Next on the show, a supermarket in the UK has gone viral

because of its chilled section. Oh. We'll explain why next. The Fletch morning, Haley, big pod. I like the chilled section of the supermarket because my nipples get hard. Anything that makes the nipples hard, that gets you. Yeah.

linger by that open ice chest freezer thing full of fish carcasses. It's not as good in summer now the chilled section of the supermarket because it's all freezer doors. It's all the stand-up freezers. Our local supermarket, Vaughan and I, they've gone vertical freezers

as opposed to your chest freezer. And that's changed. Why? It must be an energy thing, right? Well, it's love, it looks north. It looks north. The standing freezers, looks not. I think some people as well can't reach the back of those. The local Tyrannosaurus, the local Tyrannosaurus rex

family. They migrated here and I for one welcome them with open arms. No my heart of mine. But they were really struggling with the chest freezer leaning over and getting the dino bites which I think is a bit weird. They're a T-Rex family and they were eating dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets because kind of like they evolved into chickens and now they're shaping them again like them

and now they're eating it. But anyway I'm not here to judge and whatever I welcome all cultures. But the T-Rexes were struggling to get into those freezers so I think the upright ones are a little bit easier. Yeah. I've also you know when you slide the chest freezer like that I did it once and I slid it and it took my thumbnail off. That could be another

reason. But it is not hard nipples or hard to reach spots that has everybody in England talking about and online talking about one specific cold section of a co-op. The Ecclesall Road's co-op

has a droning freezer in their colds department and their chills that everybody finds extremely relaxing. Here it is. Oh yeah, that's funny. Oh my. God, that's lovely.

It's like a little harmony. It's like the start of a song, like a, dude, people are saying this is the song that it sounds like the start of. You got mine up and on? Different K. Different K for those listening. Music, the people listening.

We're aware it's different K. But still, it's got that. Is this? Yeah. 7,016. 15 days or 16 days? I don't know. I said 15.

I said 16. Let me just check the 15 days, correct. You win. It's 15. Okay. Wait, okay. Start again, Vaughn, and I'll bring it up under. I mean, you are right, though, it does sound a little bit different.

It's a different key. But it's that same, like, is it Brian Eno? That did those massive, like, they could soundscapes. And that start like this and they'd build up and things would be added. And it was like an entire experience. Right. People were on mushrooms. Yeah.

It does sound. So that's freezer and the song. Fraser and Chenade. I think it adds more. I actually do. Yeah, actually. It's actually a stick in it right up, doesn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't think Prince knew what he was doing when he wrote the song without the freezer. Yeah. Get the freezer in the back. Someone should sample that up, actually. We could send that to Fat Freddy's Drop or something. I don't know if they do. I don't know.

Should we reach out to the Phoenix Foundation or shape shifter or something like that? They might want to do that. I don't know if I'm keen to do it. I'm going to say, what's the name, P Money. He might want that. Yeah, I don't know if they want to do that. Moby could be interested in that.

What about someone from the last like five years? She can't do it, she doesn't know. Calvin Harris? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Charles Puff or whatever his name is. Charles Puff, Charlie Poof. Oh, that's him. The Flethorn and Haley, Big Pod.

Liza Minnelli. What a legend she is. Now, she, you may remember, 2022, at the Oscars, they wheeled her out with Lady Gaga by her. only know this woman from Arrested Development, the TV show. But she's famous in the way of like...

Her mum was Judy Garland. Yeah, her mom was Judy Garland. Her mom was the original Dorothy and was it of Oz. She's the original lady of camera. Anyway, she's a legend, my darling. But yes, she's very funny one of our favourite shows, Aristed Development, where she constantly has vertigo.

And it's just the greatest thing. So she was wheeled out the 22 Oscars to give Best Picture with Lady Gaga. And there was this moment where She was looking at the teleprompter and she couldn't do it and everyone was like, oh, you poor elderly witch

and at which point Lady Gaga bent down and said, I've got you. And everyone was like Lady Gaga as a hero. Yeah. Liza Manelli has written a book. Kids wait till you hear this. Kids wait till you hear this. Is that what her book's called?

That's what it's called. That's quite cool title. Where she said the whole thing was absolute BS and that the Oscars put her in a wheelchair. She wasn't supposed to be and she was completely capable of standing. but they thought this would look good. Okay, great. She says, I was...

Well, it worked, didn't it? We all thought she was... Yeah, we're like, oh, isn't this beautiful? You know, the young sort of passing the baton. No, no, no. She said I was inexplicably ordered and they're not even asked to sit in this wheelchair. I was told this,

and they'd lowered the wheelchair from, you know, if she was standing, so she couldn't read the telepromp. That was the only reason why, because the angle. Because the teleprompter screen is a see-through screen that has to be on a specific angle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So she said, I was much lower down than I would have been in the original position. And so when she's looking at the telepromp, everyone's like, oh, nanny.

She's lost her mind. She's lost her mind. She's lost her marbles. What a legend. Then she said, so she was calling out the Oscars, she said, when I stumbled over a few words, Gaga at my side, didn't miss a beat to play the kind-hearted hero for all the world to see. I got you, she said, leaning over me as I rolled my eyes. Like it's this, she was just like the whole thing.

was a complete farce. Lady Gaga's come out and said this was not her experience of it. That's the thing. Lady Gaga wouldn't have known that she would have been chucked in a wheelchair and the anger was out and she would have been like, you're on a time. Everything of those ceremonies are so tight. I don't think Gaga's a bad person.

I don't think Gaga's a bad person, but it's one of those, remember when Anne Hathaway said, it came true when she won her Oscar for Les Mis. It's that kind of cringe, performative, like, you know, female. Hero, yeah, people love hating Annie Hathaway, didn't they? Oh, I hate that.

Then spell it with an eye. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Who's the other one that does this? Is Emma Stone? There's another one. There's another person there. Oh, yeah, she's Emma.

It's not Emma Stone. No, no, there's another one. Emma, Emmerstonne. There's another one. Like Annie. No, there's another one. Anne Hathaway. Oh, well, you search that.

I will say I read an article, Lady Gaga back on top of the music industry. With what? Apparently, like Bad Bunny, like, they rank, like, musicians and their influence and their, like, popular. It's kind of a combination of all manner of things. Social presence, everything. Lady Gaga, she'd overtaken Bad Bunny again.

He shouldn't have invited her at the halftime, Sherry. Would have stayed on top. Can't find who this is. Well, I think you're just making it up. No, there's another one that it's like... 9-6-96. You're 9-6-9-6. If you know which actress has her name pronounced differently, and she always corrects it, she's like,

Yes, they am. It's not Emily Blunt. It's one of the white ones. Okay. What's the white ones? We're married it into a white woman. White woman. Is it Margot Robbie?

It's not Margot Robby. Because that's how she likes it said. Right. Hard tea. No, I can't even think of it and it's going to drive me crazy. I'm just to have to leave for the day. I'm not going to be of no use to the show. It's not Emily.

Amali. You don't believe me. I can see it. It's not, okay. Yeah, no. I'm just trying to think of other. female actresses. Emma Stone wants to go back to Emily.

Someone just messaged in. Oh, did she? Is that it then? Is that it? It doesn't feel right. It doesn't sit right. That's not right. That's not what she meant.

966, that's not what she meant. Is Charlest there on? No, it's not, it's no, no, younger. Kirsten danced? No. Robble Wilson? Rubble. It's not Robble.

It's not Robble. It's not Robble Wilson. It's not Robble Wilson. Okay. I'm going to find this. Anna Faris. Anna. No.

Even though she pronounce it spout Anna With two ends. She's always been She's always said Anna. Ariana Grande. It's like when you see someone with S-A-R-A as their name And you're like, hey Sarah, Sarah, it's Sarah.

I'm like, we'll chuck an H on. Yeah, h on there. The Z-N-P podcast network. I do love when Gen Z-Zee in particular And they have all my respect, particularly our producers. Just like, you don't want to annoy them. You know what I'm name? I love when they take something

that we've kind of been doing for a while Put a name on it and claim it, which I think is potentially this. I'll describe it to you. Fletch, you'll love this. Okay. There's a rise in Gen Z's and a little bit millennials. Gen Z's leading the charge,

millennials following suit. Skipping the nightcap. Yep. The traditional, you know, end of the night, maybe something quite strong, a liquor or a shot or a little... What's the word in Italian? Yeah, that's it.

That's it, yeah. in lieu of the daycap, which is, we knew it is day drinking, I'll say. Right. But they're saying it's the daycap. And the reason being, and this is why Fletch, I know you all like it, they want to go to bed early. Yeah, I love this.

Because they're like, I want to have a fun night, don't get me wrong. Yeah. I want to have a fun time and have some drinks, but I'm not doing it at the cost of sleep. I think nightcap's the wrong word because nightcap, this is just day drinking. Yeah, that's exactly it. I love that they say daycap.

Starting earlier, finishing earlier, right? Nobody does a night cap anyway. But also night cap means like putting a cap on the night. That's the last thing. But also not just sort of, when I think of a nightcap, I think we've had dinner and we've had a classy thing. We have a nice little port and go to bed or something like that. Literally haven't drunk port in years.

But also they were saying like the end of night last hour insanity. You know we're at a bar and they call last drinks. And everyone like floods to the bar. Quickly we would get another drinking before we go. because I'm in bed by... I'm gone by that. You're not often in a clearer of it closing. No, it's been a long time since the lights came on

and I was like, oh God. Oh, God, it's the worst. But there is that thing of last drinks and everyone will rush to get one. And that's changing. Like, even in hospice, they're saying that doesn't really happen anymore, that last little rush.

They're finding they're getting busy earlier, much quiet later. And yeah, this is the thing who's like saying people want to do the day stuff, maybe start at two. We're done by seven. It's the best. It's the best.

It's the best. salute best way to go. And then you've got a little bit of time to chill at home. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have some waters. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah. And then you get a better sleep.

Eat dinner to finish the evening. Yeah. Yeah, go to sleep. And it's also replacing by moving things earlier. There's a rise in drinks like Bloody Mary's or Pena Coladas, perhaps seen as a little bit more day appropriate. And lower uptaken, like those heavy spirits. So it's like, this is only good news that people are drinking less.

drinking early and getting good sleep. Unless you own a bar, then it's not, but then just open earlier. Just that, yeah, I reckon open earlier. Shuffle towards an 11 a.m. start. Yeah. Get your bruncher, bloody merry, you know, people through the doors.

And a lot of people saying like 50% of bookings now between midday and six at like, you know, bars that would serve food and stuff. Okay, that works. Only 2% of reservations 9pm to later. I just, I had a bit of a, I saw the set list. times for Good Charlotte.

Good Charlotte on Friday. Good Charlotte are on at 9 o'clock. I was like, I'm not being bed by 8. I love those memes of like millennials at the back of the crowd when the third warm up band comes on at 9pm. The eyes are like, oh my God, kill me. The Z&M's Podcast Network.

Play ZM's Flashfallen and Haley. From the unmoderated comment section, this is the top six. Today's top six, the top six ways to cheer out the police more than half of the police force considering quitting in a survey of people employed by the police the force. Imagine the rioting and the disarray of society

of the police went there. Remember people just panic and start stealing flat screens. The scenes. The scenes of it. 57% of almost 6,000 police officers. I get it, man. If you talk to any cops, they're like, it's full on. It's a lot of disrespect.

Oh, I bet. insufficient pay and strain of the job. Yeah, well, they're dealing with the worst of the worst. I thought they were supposed to be getting 5,000 new police officers. I thought we were supposed to be getting a whole lot more. Anyway, I can't solve that. That sounds like a training issue, but I can cheer them up in the meantime. Okay, that's good.

Great fair. I bet they can't wait for this. And good morning to our police officers. Good morning to our police listeners. If you are listening, 9-6-9-6. Wee-WP. You want them to text in? Whoop.

Oh, 9-6-9-6. I want to, I like that. If I was a cop, that would be my favorite button to push. It's the little burp one. Yeah, the burp one. Whoop, whoop. Maybe that one would be my favorite. A we're up.

A short one. The short one. Yep, whoop, whoop. Nothing would feel better than cranking on the full siren light situation and punching it up the bus lane, though. And do kind of like the European ones. Like the wee woo, wee, wee, woo. Oh, but more traditional.

No, that's British. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, getting off from the distance. Yeah. That was really good for me, by the way. It was actually. It was somewhat of a rest derby of radio, and I just want to remind you with that.

I think it feels like it's the right time to do. My Jetson's car going past. It's really good. It's really good. Jane, his wife. Oh, we've had a Nienor. Neneau. Neneau.

Good morning. Thank you. That's an international police list. Top six of ways that cheer out the police. Number six on the list, a polica party. Oh yeah because corporate love a pizza party Don't they? You guys have done so well

Record profits We're all putting in new bathrooms Yeah Do you guys want a polita party? Love it Yeah yeah yeah Number five on the list of the top six ways To cheer out the police

I'm thinking those old steel handcuffs are a bit Depressing Yeah Pink fluffy ones instead Because then when you're arresting it It's kind of like a little bit sexy And then a little bit funny as well But like you've just been arrested

and I'm taking you in the cop car with pink handcuffs. And you can like humiliating. Yeah. Yeah, on a big, like, yang. No, they're still prim. No, they're, they're, please stand in handcuffs that they've got a pink fluff on them. Oh, okay. I thought you meant just from like the adult store.

No, no, no, no, no. Those are definitely break them. Can you? I've heard. Right. I've heard they're weak and crumbling. Right. They've heard they've heard.

Right. Maybe you need to find an actual cop. Oh, where are they? Number four on the, well, they're not happy. They're very unhappy. They're at the polica party, getting their new standard pink fluffy handcuffs. How or how can we make them happier, Vaughn? Number four on the list of ways to cheer.

Could we all just behave ourselves a little bit more? Bore. But then they'll be bored and then still miserable. You know what bored gang members? We don't know what'll happen if they can't crime. Maybe they could garden or clean up the local park. That's called community service, Vaughn. There's got to be some kind of patch joke in there.

You know, patch with. Pumpkin patch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Pumpkin patched up. Yeah. Number three on the list of the top six ways to cheer out the police. Could we get them cool the police cars?

I mean, no one was ever like, Yehara Skoda, were they? Yeah. No one was ever like, wow. Skoda. We were to it like a G-wagon. Would you have like in Dubai? They have like Ferrari, police cars and stuff.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. G-wagon, I watched that Whistling Diesel fella. Have you ever heard of him on YouTube? He's just this car dude. I thought you meant Vin Diesel. Now, Whistland diesel. And he bought a G-Wagon just to destroy it. That thing took a hammering.

I think it would be a great investment. How did he destroy it? Dude, you name it. He destroyed it. At one stage, he filled it with corn out of a corn tower. How would that destroyer? It would just make it corning. Weigh it down, so it was extra.

But this was well down the track of him thrashing this G-wagon. Some people have too much time and money. On their hands, I have. Number two on the list of the top six ways to chair up the place. Free Maccas. Remember there was that rum in the police got free McDonald's? That's right. And all the police were like, no.

No, and the McDonald's will say, no, no. They might have got like a discount perhaps. Yeah, I don't know. Or a student fries. Cop discount. Yeah, but they never got free Maccas. That would have done nothing for the, like, waste line of the New Zealand Police Force.

No, no, no. Just constantly, just been able to eat it whenever you want. You say no to that much Maccas. Oh, God, yeah. You're a yum, yum, yum in it. And number one on the list of the top six ways to cheer up the police, Robocop partners. Well, they might have them, so.

I know. They could be teamed up with robots. That'd be fun. A lot of cops messaging in. We've had a whoop, bit, bit. Oh, we've had a whoop. A cop-et's messaged in. Okay.

Unless of Methany and Matthew would make me happy. Unless she's saying there, stop doing a meth. Okay, yeah, maybe that would be great. We're happy to spread the word. Stop doing meth from Copette who's messaged in the show. That is that I stop six. The Zenon Podcast Network. Well, currently sold out online all.

ready. $35. You can go to Kmart and get the new viral MP3 player. Okay, so I've got questions on how it works because the old iPods

came with software. Oh my God, so it looks iTunes. It looks like kind of like an old iPod. Yeah. It looks like the slim nanos. And you can get them

in pink and black and silver as well. That one's in Australia but I'm on the... 35 dollars. 35 bucks. It's got Bluetooth so you can, you could use Bluetooth

headphones with it rather than... That's not the aesthetic though, is it? No, no, you're going plug-ins and it comes with... The whole thing's just an aesthetic. Like a look. Like you can be like holding it and... No, it kind of works... It's also coming with

a pair of cheap as black corded headphones, like the classic ones that you would get. So it's Bluetooth headphone and speaker. So it has a little speaker on the back if you wanted to play out loud. Right. Music play at FM Radio. Well, how? Hello. It's got a built-in FM radio? What, like a digital scanner. How does that work?

The aerial will be the headphone cord. Well, my discman had a built-in FM radio. That's when I would listen to Bomber late at night on Channel C. Yeah. Well, it's not dead. Ani? No, the radio station is. I thought when radio station got shut down, they also euthanized all the presenters.

Well, let's hope not. I think that's a rumor. And I don't think we can say that. So it's got music player, FM radio, voice recorder, video playback. Remember like the old iPods with the windy thing? You could play little videos on them.

Ebook and alarm clock with a built-in speaker, USB charging. You use it basically like a, USB stick, kind of. So you would drag your files on to it. Just drag files straight onto it. Head to, you know, what's the Napster or Lime wire? That's the other thing, like, who's downloading for music files anymore?

Who has music files anymore? I don't know. Remember when you used to, like, have a CD, and then you'd rip it to your computer so then you could put it on your iPod because we're all upgrading. So I was looking at this being like, yeah, I'm not quite sure on its purpose. There's some great comments. on the Facebook page. This one's from Australian Millennials.

Okay. Who shared this. Someone said after my current phone plan expires, I'm low-key tempted to buy one of these a Nokia 3-3-10 in a digital camera. That's what, we've got one thing that does it all now in our pockets are still full. Why do we want to go back

to having individual pieces of technology for every different thing? Someone said the year 2000 called it wants lime wire back. But then a few people came on and I was like, this makes a good point. They said, I love this. Kids can listen to music that you choose without internet or anything else so parents will know exactly what they're listening to

no subscriptions or anything like that. I have one for my eight-year-old. She loves and it's loaded with all my old MP3 music from back in the day that I still had on my computer. Tip it low, pick it up slow. No, she says, she says my eight-year-old

Papa Roach, System of a Down, gorillas, alien ant farm, silverture, red hot chili peppers matchbox 20. But I was like, that does make sense that young kids could have him music listening device that isn't connected to the internet. Yeah, that's true. That's pretty good.

But it's mostly Gen Z's buying them for that. It is, of course, for the aesthetics of being like, oh my God, vintage. Yeah, and excuse me. And you want, excuse me you. We all still have ours in a drawer somewhere thinking maybe one day we'll get that epic playlist off it. Play Z-N's flesh, one and Haley. This argument, online debate started on Reddit, and it was all about how often you should

change your kitchen, sponge or cloth. When it stinks. When it's like Cotton. When it slowly goes grey? Yeah. Mine's like, mine are green as well,

like dark green so I feel like I can't even see how bad it is. Do you know what I'm? I've got some light coloured microfiber ones recently. Oh yeah. And but how often would you watch them?

You don't do you? Every few days, no. Every few days. Because you can see because they're bright coloured you can see them dulling. Yes. You can see like the stuff.

After you wipe the bench, you look at it and you're like, and then you rinse that. It doesn't all come off. And you're like, huh. And I guess if you have a couple, you can just chuck them in the wash. Yeah, I wash mine. Yeah. But I reckon I'd be like, once a week.

So that's, because that was the argument on Reddit. People are like, well, I don't know, just once a week or just when they go really stanky. Yeah, when it stanks and no longer cleans the bench properly. Well, Dr. Primrose Freestone. A made-up name. Oh, shut up name. Dr. Primrose Freestone? Do you think it is made up?

From the University of Wuthering Clifthop, something with the others? Yeah. It's a goblin university of economics and wizardry. West wizardry. I did see a list the other day that someone had put out in the UK and it was for like media and press. And it was all the fake names that have been associated to. Celebrities like staying in places? No, no.

It was all the fake names. that people use to say that they've done a study or that they've... Oh, great, great. Because all these newsrooms are just full of AI bots now and very few journalists. Yeah. And so much fake stuff is getting through. And people just do it as a laugh as well. So someone's made up this big list that journalists can check.

Well, Primrose Weatherstones. You can check apparently the Associate Professor in Clinical Microbiology at the University of Leicestershire. What's her name? Dr. Primrose. Freestone. Freestyle. She's come right up. Is it sounding legit?

Is she real? Yeah. Yeah, that's... She's a real human being. But she doesn't look anything like I was hoping. No, I imagined her looking like a hippie. Well, she's just in a lamp coat. Oh, okay, no.

Because Primrose Freestone gives me big... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Lids in a house bus. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. I would have some twigs in her here. Went to Steiner, but only went like a couple of days of the week. The rest of the time was working. with twigs and mud.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's like, okay, and what are you doing for your last year of Rudolph's stina school and she's like twigs and mud? Well, no, she's real. I'm specialising in twigs and mud. Well done. She's kind of like our Susie, Dr. Susie Wiles.

Yes, she is. Because she was often on the news, Dr. Primrose Freestone, during COVID times, doing, you know, this is what you need to do. So she's a microbiologist, and she said that how often you clean your kitchen cloth or sponge depends what you've been using it for, If something likely to be germridden

Such as dirty vegetable or raw meat or fish Then they should be single use So like if you're Oh yeah okay Sorry I thought of you wiping the fish Yeah yeah I was like yuck But yeah but if you had chicken juice on the bench

Yeah then every day Even with a rinse So every day you said she says I throw my sponge away after a single day Where she throws it away She must be throwing his away So she is she getting that disposed you know he can get like a big roll of the blue ones and you rip them off

and those are kind of just like couple of uses. But you can wash those. Yeah, I wash them. When we were renovating, I washed those all the time. They're great. Yeah, you can. So she's like, and you can see here there's screenshots. She's done like lab tests.

She's got petri dishes. She's got petri dishes here showing all the stuff that's on your kitchen sponge. So you dare show me petri dishes. Yeah. Producer Shannon, you, because we've got sent a whole lot of sponge daddies, didn't we? You've raised a question about sponge. Scrub daddies. Scrub daddies, sorry.

Please respect the daddy. Are they different than a kitchen sponge, right? Because they're, like, harder? More abrasive. Yeah, I mean, we got sent those a few months ago, and I'm still rocking my OG scrub daddy. So he's a few months old. So where you've got months?

Yeah, and he started sprouting recently. Sprouting what? Chia. Because I like chia, and I use the scrub daddy to get it. The chia seeds. To get the chia seeds out of my... Chia bro to you as well, is. I started scrubbing him

and then I just left him there and because he was damp and I made a chia pet essentially You made a scrub daddy chair pet? Yeah and he sprouted and I was like Oh I don't know if I should do that So then I just put boiling water at my sink And I made him a little bath

I was getting a chair side You could put your scrum daddy in the dishwasher Oh I should have done that I just made him a little bath And then all the chia floated out of him And I'm still using him I can't help but notice she's personified this Scrub daddy.

Put him in the... Yeah. He does have a gender. He is a daddy. Do you know what it was funny? There is a mummy. And there is a scrub mommy. She wears a bow in her hair.

When he was sprouting, it was coming out of his mouth and it looked real funny. Well, I kind of want to put cheer seeds. I want to get a scrub daddy just for this purpose and just put cheer out on the top so he grows ahead of hair. Yeah. I mean, it worked shockingly quick.

Like literally he was Chia within like two days. Have you seen those 3D printed scrub daddy holders? That sit on the edgier sink? Yes. You say that word. Oh, sorry, sit on the rim of your sink. Well, maybe I knew that. And then you sit him in, and the water that dribbles out comes out of his doodle.

And it looks like he's doing a wee in the sink. Do we think so? So I gave him this bath, the chia floated out of him. I'm still using him post-sprout. I feel like in your apartment it's sort of the least. Do you know it's the least of the war. Yeah, like in meth towers or whatever way. Meth towers.

You're going to run away the meth. I'm surprised anything sprouted there. Yeah. at all, apart from toxic mould. It's the perfect environment, damp and humid. Play, that ends, Flesh forne and Haley. So there is a huge... I didn't realize this, that this was a...

Like a Europe festival that went to Australia for the first time. Mighty Hoopla. Oh, yeah. It's like a queer festival, I believe, queer focused. Cash was headlining this year. Becky Hill. But it went down to Australia.

It was in Sydney over the weekend. Becky Hill, doubted a good room. On, you say there it was a queer festival, the beautiful flags are up at the moment for pride. My dad asked me what country was. What did you tell him? Did he say Queeristan or something? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Gaisikstan.

Homo stand? Yeah, one of the stands. I said, oh, there's so many stans now on that flag, it's got all the stans. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Country is there. Oh, bless Ian. Bless Ian. I mean, you don't see many pride flags in Morin's building.

They'll chuck up some Christmas decorations on the lights, but even that's a bit extravagant. Even that's a bit gay. Little leon. Lillian? I was pretty stoked walking around saying the pride flags up. Yeah, it's lovely. Around Auckland Central.

That was nice. Well, this was huge on Bondi Beach, cashier headlining. As I said, some great artists, Chamelea. I mean, we love to see it, Atomic Kiss. Did she just do superstar over her again? Yeah, yeah.

What was her other Jamelia sing star? Yeah, Chamelea, Super. Jamelia, Jamelia. I don't know what this is. Yeah, that's the only song though. That makes me feel like that. Anyway, so, not part of the original lineup, but a surprise performance. Here's the audio of a reunion of a famous Australian band.

If you don't immediately know. I don't know. It's Bardot. The winners. Sophie Monk. Sophie Monk, not an Nintendo. I wondered if she wasn't. She was the posh spice of Bardo.

Here's the big bit. That's all there, I say. Oh no. Okay, you're coming with me. I've got, I've got the actual... Bar Doe were Australia's version of True Bliss. True Bliss. Yes.

Pop stars and they put together Bar Doe. They did it after. True Bliss, right? True Bliss was the first. Yeah. So this was Bar Do. It was a five-piece, all girls band, with Sophie Monk kind of been the most successful of them.

And I run away. She quit her life on the Gold Coast at movie world, didn't she? She was Wonder Woman. Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe. Oh, she already did that as well. There's something for everybody in here, right, in Bardo? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Definitely something for the lesbians, I'll say. Surehead pixie card at the front then. Yep. So four out of the five were there for this one-off reunion performance, 25 years after they last performed together. And the crowd, we're just in this moment where we love it. Like, we just bought Hillary Duff tickets, and they went like hotcakes, right? Yeah, yeah.

We're in this moment where we're just loving a bit of nostalgia, and the crowd goes absolutely crazy. Everyone remembers this. Do you know that six top singles? Like six top ten singles? In Australia. Yeah. This was big in New Zealand, though, this song.

You can't be true. Ah! So they did this whole, like, performance. It was absolutely amazing. And the crowd, predominantly gay. Yeah. Predominantly. From Gazistan.

From Gazistan. Yeah. Yeah, or they from... I was going to be a bad one. Yeah, I wanted how far we could take that. Yeah, I wanted how far we were going to be pushing it out. I know, but people are stoked. I would have loved this.

It's like anytime True Bliss has a little get-together and sing something, we're all like. Yeah, the hot. Are you okay? You just look at your pictures. You know, the hot just came out. I'm back in the year 2000 right now. Mentally.

It's right. You're a little more. You can tell Bowery was brown skin, light eyes. Yeah, I know. The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Fleshhorn and Haley. A man in Sicily, lovely, haven't been, would like to. You guys go to Sicily?

I know it was the place where in World War II they got across to Sicily and then launched the land invasion up through Italy. If you want to talk about World War II. He's been watching his documentaries, isn't he? He's in Georgia. Well, you know it was season two of Rogue Heroes. That was the whole thing. getting into Sicily getting across that.

Man, that was good. That was just a great show. It was a great show. Great theatre of war. Great theatre of war. Sicily and Italy have released this footage of a dog carrying a bag of rubbish and then just dropping it on the side of the road and then leaving. This dog had been trained by its owner to take away his rubbish. Obviously nothing in it that would lead it back to him.

Yeah. Because he was like there's security cameras and stuff. So the dog would just go and drop the rubbish and come back because it's so much. harder to I tend to photo, isn't it? That's actually genius. Because what? Is it like they have to pay for their rubbish? Like the council doesn't

pick it up for free, so they've got to pay for their rubbish collection. Right. So he's trained his dog to just take it and leave it somewhere. Inventiveness can never be an alibi. Man, this would have been better if I had stumbled. That sucks. This is a local authority said on a post on Facebook.

Inventiveness can never be an alibi for incivility. Wow. And those Sicilians, man, they know their stuff. Did he say it in Italian or did he say that in English? Oh, probably in Italian. It's probably translated, I'd say. Sicilian.

Yes, Sicilians have their own language? No, they speak Italian. Do they? Yeah. With an accent. With a slightly different accent. With a slightly different. Regional accent.

Sounds very Italian. This is brilliant. And he was caught because of the security cameras. Yeah. I love this. And then they followed the dog and they found him. But he trained it. Like, don't press charges.

It's cute. It's funny. No, but pretty the human beings, the one that screwed it up. by making the dog do criminal activities. Because I've always wanted a dog. I mean, I don't wear slippers in my dog's outside dogs, so I've expected expecting them to bring me my slippers. It's ridiculous.

But it would be cool if they did no art trick. Be weird if you didn't have slippers, and every day they're bringing a pair of slippers. I don't know where you get any slippers. Well, like those cats that steal underpants. Undies or socks. Love it. And then bring them back and people are like...

I remember there was a guy and he was just like, I just want, for the record, my dog is stealing someone's panties. It's not me. Yeah. And everyone's like, is it? That's what the guy

who's stealing panties would say. That's giving big stealing panties. Yeah, and he's like, look, and he put up a photo with the dog with the panties in the mouth and he's like, where are you getting these pants? Yeah, I don't know.

He's blaming the dog. I wish I could teach Rolly more tracks. I teach him to stand on his back legs for as long as possible. Like a mere cat. Yes. That's very clever. But that's the most he can do.

I'm more impressed. Like you dangle some ham. I am more impressed when someone trains a cat to do something because cats don't do that kind of. And they're not meant You can teach a dog to sniff out like chlamydia. Do you know what I mean?

Can you? I don't know if you can, Haley. Yeah, they could sniff out diabetes. I don't know. I think you're going to the wrong doctor again. Sniff out COVID. Are you just going to the pound again, Haley? Is this a chlamydia sniffing one? No, like obviously they use them at airports and, you know, drug detector dogs.

They could sniff out diabetes. They could sniff out COVID. Why couldn't they sniff out clemidia? I just pulled a disease out of nowhere. Sniff out. Climedia. How do you spell for a lot? that though. It's got an H somewhere weird and a wine. Don't pretend you haven't had a few prescriptions.

However, would you spell it? Cropschniffing. You laughed at me. You laughed at me. Yes, specifically trained detection dogs can identify chlamydia, particularly by sniffing out the scent of infection in animals like koalas. Wouldn't that be very helpful as a single person to have a dog and then every time someone came out of your house,

he yapped at you if they had chlamydia or gonorrhea? So they're arrive and you're like, excuse me, we're just going to put you through security and they have to walk past the bagel, not touch it. Yeah, and you don't tell them. And the bagel goes, and sits down. And you're like, dude, you're going to need some antibiotics.

We're going to get some antibiotics. I'll see you in a week. But they do, yeah, they use them in Australia so that they don't have to individually test every koala. Every koala. The dog will just be like, yep, that one's got chlamydia. Yeah, that one does. They basically all do.

That's wild. Okay, well, this is a question we want to ask this morning. Oh, 800 dials at Amazon number. You can text her as well. 9-6-96. Have you taught your pet to do a cool trick? Yeah, something cool. Your pet does, that's really funny or great. It's like the cats and dogs that use the human toilet and can flush it.

I know. Yes, you're done there. But also not mad if I have to clear out the litter box every day. How good would it be if your cat just pooped in the toilet straight? Even if they can't flush it, at least the poops, it's just a button. Yeah. That's really clever. Well, that's what we want to know this morning.

hundred dials at M-669696. What did you teach your pet to do? Tay joins us. Tay, what can your cat do? My cat's fully whistle trained. So he can, if you whistle anywhere in the neighbourhood, he'll come running. He also knows almost any kind of trick of dog knows. So we know sit, shake, turn around, high-fives, punch it, beak, like down.

What kind of cat we got? Is this a posh breed or is it a... Um, he kind of, he's a half posh breed, so he's a half ragdoll. Um, but yeah, he's just really docile and I wanted a dog, so I, he just made one. But I didn't have, like, the property for it. So I was like, oh, get a cat and they just train it like a dog. Wow.

What's the other half of the cat, though? Is the other half a dog? Hoodle. Yeah, it's a, it's a ragdoll doodle. Um, yeah, so he's, um, he's also fully, um, leased trained as well. So he'll walk a leg. Oh, I love seeing a cat. out walking.

Yeah. That's cute. Amazing. Tay, thank you. Haley. Oh, hello. What is it? Not you.

What can your pet do? That's cool. I taught my German Shepherd as a pup to ring a bell that I put by the ranch flyer if he wants to go out and he rings it. They still go out of five years later. So I just walk up and be like,

ding. And then you have to get up and open the ranch lighter. Yes, yes. But how often is he doing this, though? Because my cat will just be constant, in and out, in and out. Oh, he's not too bad unless he's got the runs. He's like, hurry out, hurry up, hurry up, hurry out.

He's up, master, quickly, I'm in the other chaise-out on the floor. Thank you, Haley, keep your text coming in, 9-6-96. I taught my dog how to doggie. Teach me how to doggie. Now, is that a cleverer reference to teaching taught, or do you think they actually taught the dog some sort of dog-based TikTok dance routine? We taught our dog to turn on the lights using the light switch. Oh, but you could be in the middle of the night.

Is it what they see in the dark? Is it with its porn? Because I'm imagining a dog's jumping up on the wall every time. It's just going to have massive scratch marks all around the light shade. Oh, yeah, yeah, no, no, screw that. My big boy, dog, sniffed out my cancer. I'll often give them a twirl for another sniff check. How did they know that it sniffed out?

Nicola, we've got follow-up questions. Yeah, like, how did you have any symptoms? It's cancer. Putting the nose on the bit with the cancer. Keep bipping it. We're talking about the cool tricks that your pets can do. An Italian man taught his dog to dump his rubbish. Not that we're saying that that's cool?

No. But it did look quite kind of cute on the video when the dog would just take a plastic bag and just leave it down the road. Yeah. I don't know who is. Carry out on his dog. Have we had an update on the dog that sniffed out the cancer and how it informed the owner of cancer? No, no update.

I trained my cat to fetch her mouse to her. so she'd stop losing them under the couch. I taught my cat to give a high-five. Oh, cute. Tiara says there are dogs that are trained to detect a pen mark underwater. That's how sensitive their smell is. They can smell pan underwater.

I've watched videos on Instagramio where they do that. They're like just get the tiniest little test of one thing and throw it into the middle of the bush and the dog just finds it. Under the water, what are they drawing on? Like a shell.

Yeah. Yes, a shell. I can't even write on my hands sometimes because it's too oily. Yes, they're writing on a shell. Like a vivid? It must be vivid. And they'd have to let it dry before it went in the ocean. You know what I mean?

Yeah. If you wet that too early, it won't work. Some other messages from people who have taught their dogs things. A lot of cats playing fetch. Yeah, my cat plays fetch. Does he bring it back to you? He does, yeah. Our dog used to go and get the newspaper,

fetch the newspaper, just used to get chucked at the end of the driveway. Yeah, but then you open up the newspaper. It's slobbery. Slobbered. The problem is he'd get our newspaper and come back and we'd give them a treat, so go and get the neighbor's newspaper and bring that and get another treat. There's a loophole.

Yeah, he's got you there on a treat paper loophole. So our Australian Terrier would fetch the paper from the end of the driveway. But even on Saturday when it was huge, he'd like have to drag it up. We'll probably bring the property section first, go back for the world. Separate it, sports. Yeah. They don't need this one. They don't need it.

Entertainment. I'll leave that one there. We taught our cat Frank to open windows. And we locked him in the garage by accident once and he got out so we put cameras to work it out. And he was so good at it. So he just kept open windows. Did he get the security latches? Like I've got those like, you know, like locked down ones.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Flip and then like push it. A cat could easily flick those open. Totally. They weren't too stiff. We've got lots of questions. How does a dog smell underwater? Do you sniff in?

They've just got, they've just got, Are you making that up, Vaughn? He can't sniff. I'm just repeating what I'm being told. Maybe I'm being lied to. There's gluten detection dogs. Yes, for celiacs. So you'd have a loaf and you'd be like, can I eat it?

You just put a gluten-free meal under their nose and if they say no-vue. No, thank you. I've already eaten. So dogs can detect scents coming from underwater by picking up the volatile gases or particles that rise to the surface. But I thought on movies they were always like,

get to the river so we can get away and they don't get tracked. The running water might slow them down. Oh yeah, because it would, yeah, flow down stream, right? My daughter's taught her pony to fist pump. The pony bends up its front leg and pumps with the kneecap. A pony! That's cool. I told my cat to scratch my back. If I had an issue that I couldn't reach, I'd just lie down and the cat would come and just give me a general scratch and I'd make a noise when he hit the right spot and he'd give

a little scratch. Make biscuits on your back. That'd be nice. A little catch scratch. accidentally taught our dog to squeak his toy for extra pats. He would bring his toy to the bed and we'd pat him to stop him from squeaking. Now he always squeaks it to her. That's time to get rid of the squeaky toy and never again get a squeaky toy. Play Z-Ems, Flesh, Vaughan and Haley. Hey, you on the phone, I bet I can guess your mum's name.

Bet I can guess your mum's name. Vaughn will ask Maddie five questions about her mum and then have 15 seconds to try and guess her name. Maddie, good morning. Good morning, guys. Good. Good, good. Actually really good, thank you so much. Bit tired.

Across the board, I think. The show's a bit tired. Oh, are we? Yeah. Well, you had a big weekend. March and such. Fletch was international. I'm just tired all the time.

I just tired all the time. And the doctors call it active burnout, but I'm not sure. I think it's called 44. Yeah. Maddie, I think we're going to need a little bit of an earth thing, humming ceremony. So if you could start humming and then we'll tone in to try to bring the vibrations of the dimensions together. So we can get this. It's a psychic thing, Maddie.

It's a psychic thing. You might not understand. You start. Okay, go, Maddie, you start. Okay, go, Maddie, all right. Oh, yeah. Are you connected, like Bluetooth? Yep.

All right, Maddie. First one in this kind of, like, sets a bit of a tone. What's mum's date of birth? Like, what year was mum born? 1965. 65. I mean, that's right in the Karen sweet spot. That's right.

You've always got to put down Karen. That's right in the Karen sweet spot. Oh, yeah, 65. You think it's your Cessie? Your Susan's. A Kim? Is it too? No, maybe.

I might be... You can't put Kath without Kim. Okay, so if I'm putting Kath, I'm going to put Kim. Okay. Ah. What else is there? Well, Christine, that's a little bit after Christine, but of the same vintage. I always put our mum's names in there, so we're all.

The ZETT. You know? Play ZETN's Flesh, One and Haley. I've only know the famous one, Patsy, darling, and my mother. Yeah. I'm going to put it in the show. Sharon with an A, A-R-O-N. They don't know why I said with an A, they've always got an A.

It's the O and the Y that are interchangeable. Am I chucking a Kim? No, I've already got a Kim. Okay, why did I want to go back to a Kim? There was something there. Katie. Jackie. Oh, Jackie, yeah, that's a good one. Jackie's right in that sweet spot.

What are pets-wise? What's Mom got? She has eight cats. Oh, yikes. Oh, okay, she's a crazy cat lady. Jesus. What's a crazy cat ladies now? Susie.

Susie. Susan's already on the list. I've got Susan. Susan's already on the list. I'll chuck an underline under that one. That's got a strong feel to it. Yes, Susie. It's got Donna. It's got Donna. Donna would have eight cats. Have you got a Kathy in there?

Yeah, Kathy. Remember we did Cathall come? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going to keep my own. Deborah, Debbie. Someone said Jane and they're wrong. So I just don't put on the list. It's not Jane. No, but Jane's of that era, though.

Fiona's got fur everywhere. Fiona's got cat dander. I think Fiona's too young for that name. Danda. But like with an eight cats, is she, you know, sort of Rudolph Steiner kind of hippie vibe? A couple of mentions for Rudolph Steiner's School of Modern Witchcraft and Wizardry today. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you know, is she a Florence? A Florence? No, shush. You shut your mouth, Maddie. Sorry, it's a rhetorical question. It's just between. No hints, Maddie, no hints. What are mum's siblings?

What are mum's siblings' names? So she had a brother book called Michael. No longer with us? No. Sorry for your loss. Our condolences. Pam and Belinda have been texted multiple times. Pam and Belinda.

I'll go Pam. Michael is a very traditional name. So we could be looking for a traditional. Yeah, but you know, you meet someone one time, you meet them and you're like, Hi, how are you? They're like, my name's Matt, and you're like, it's nice to meet you, Matt.

Presumably gay. Matt, because all Matt's a boy. Really? And if they're not out yet, they probably will be at stage. Yeah, happy Pride Month. Yeah, everybody Matt. That's a, two T's, one A, one T. And then they're like, what's your brother called, Matt?

And he's like, Toaster. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is my brother, toaster, and you're like, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I'm named after the Bible, and he's named after their favorite kitchen appliance. Yeah, yeah. Or like, whistle or something?

Do I have a Sue? Do I have a Suzanne? Oh, Suzanne? Yes. Takes machines coming in hard for K, and I think that's right on. Oh, yes. That's beautiful K-K-A-Y. Just K-A-Y.

K-A-Y. K-A-Y. Cheryl also has cats. Raywin. Biddle. No, Ray-Wan. That's right. Raywin sounds like someone who'd have eight cats.

Yeah. Sorry, Maddie, where does she keep all the cats? That's not a question. It's not one of my questions, but we just want to know where all the cats are kept. Half of them just leave her alone and go outside most of the time, but the other half take up all her dead. What does she feed them? All her beard.

What does she feed them? Like, that's a lot. You know, I was reading the pouch instructions on the wet food. Yeah. It said one pouch per day per KG. So if you've got six-k-g cat, a six-k-g-k-k-a-k-k-a-k-k-a-k-k-a-k-k-a. I do. That's getting six pouches a day.

That's too many pouches. Yeah, right. Your mom's got eight of them. 48 pouches a day? Imagine how many pouches you'd need. Dude, I'd need, at the moment, I think I'd be 90 pouches a day. wild.

I'm not doing enough to warrant 90 pouches a day. I'm trying to cut down to 60 pouches. I'm trying to get down to... I'm trying to reduce my pouches. Yeah. Had a bit more dry biscuits. Every time I just have to remind myself, Haley, every time you want a pouch doesn't mean you need to have a pouch.

You know what I mean? Does my next question, my next question, mum's TV shows? What does she like to watch? What's she putting on the mice guy? Emma Dow for sure. Oh! Emmerdell for sure.

Interesting. We've got cats. We've got Emma. I'm thrown here. Elizabeth. But she'd probably go by like Liz. Lizzie. Or Beth.

Could be either. Yeah. Okay. That's not Beth. If she watches Emmerdale, are we thinking of Janet? Janet? Yeah, like that.

Someone messes in Janice. And I feel like we're going to get, put that in there. Okay. Okay. What's mum's snack of choice? Like, while she's watching Emmerdale and the cats are, I presumably everywhere.

Yeah. There's just this mountain of cats upon her. What is she eating? Oh, probably some chips, if I'm being honest. What flavour chips? Is she like salt and vinegar chicken? My mum's only reddy salted, for example. Yeah, she's a ready salted woman, for sure.

I don't, anyone that doesn't really salted. I'm like, get a flavour. I know, get a personality, eh? You could get any flavour in the world, are you doing reddy salted? What's wrong with you? I know. Oh, she loves a bit of dip, so. Oh, okay.

A bit of dip with a ready salted. What are we talking to traditional kiwi, Kiwi onion mix and? Yep. tewey onion dip. Yeah. Good dip. It's good dip.

Interesting. I'm giving an ann. Okay, Vaughn. Are those your five questions? Yeah, those are my five questions. I just want to get a couple more names on the list. I might put an Allison. Oh, yeah.

Okay. It's a great last minute edition there. You got a gertie on there? I don't have a gertie on there. Do you think I should put a gertie? Gertrude. Might not hurt. Gertrude with the cats.

Do you know what? If it's gertie. That's fantastic. If it's Goody, I think we stop the game all together and never play it again. Vorn now has 15 seconds to try and guess your mum's name. If you hear your mum's name, yell out. Stop! That's my mum's name. Vaughn, your time starts now.

That was when I felt that there would be dander in the house and I was looking for D names. So that was Donna, Debbie.

Well done. Fiona was the fur and Denise was another dander. I'm always a bit disheartened when you get it so early on in the list and it's like, man, all the rest of that shit was just a waste of time. Wendy, we already had it. Like Gertie. I will say Gertie. Wendy, Susie K.

No, no, Maddie's not eight cats is giving. Yeah. Or he just takes it because he bloody loves her. He bloody loves her. That's my damn. You ask her. I'll block my ears. You ask her because I'm not going to be able to go on without.

Okay. And you can tell me afterwards. Okay. Maddie are your parents? all together? No, very much not. Yeah, because you said they take up all the room on her bed.

Vaughn! Yeah. We had the answer. I didn't think about that when I did block my ears and I couldn't hear you, Howard, no, it was time to come back. Yeah.

You've got the answer? Yeah. Don't give it to me. Put it in an envelope. And now check, Maddie, check, under your chair. There's an envelope. No, there's not, Maddie.

But yeah, in New Zealand it's like around about 1,000. But over there, like 850's the top. So you have to have a pretty good credit rate. could do this. Or do their own numbers? They're just like, regular number zero. I don't know why they have that voice,

but like feet and inches and pounds and just get on board with metric, man. I mean, there's other stuff they do that's weirder. Water freezes at zero and boils at 100. I know. Freezes at 32 and boils at 220. That makes zero sense. So this guy, Luke Bailey, was the founder of the company, launched it and it was criticized for being classist,

which is pretty like accurate, right? Everyone was like, this is basically saying you've got to have money to be good with money. And so it's basically a way of rich people getting on this app. And it was torn apart. They did it as a 90-day experiment. It did really well. 50,000 users. A lot of global media attention.

It shut down. It's back because the founder was saying conversations about money and dating are now so prevalent. Like we come out quite quickly talking about finances and money. A lot of people kept asking like where is the app? gone, so you have to upload your credit score, which is kind of hard to do. Well, in America, in America, it's a bigger thing that it is here

right, like, haven't they kind of monetized it? Like, you can pay, surprise, surprise, America monetize an aspect of the finance industry. Whereas you can check your credit rating in New Zealand? I'm just on the government. You can. You can. Check your own credit record.

But the only thing is that you, because I remember, you know, my father is Mr. Finance of Pioneer Finance. when I would work with my dad and I said to him once, can you look at my credit score? And mine was shocking because they had no credit.

I hadn't had a credit card or any loans or anything like that. And I remember being like... The way to get a credit score is to tick something off and like pay it off correctly. Yeah, like an interest free deal or something. But does credit card count towards it? Yes.

Yeah, it does. Yeah. But I had bad credit. I've never hired purchase. I've never hired purchase anything. Right. Or what is that one you just said? After pay.

I've never after pay. But your credit card. You've had credit cards and so. I guess I'd have one, right? Yeah. So apparently, so that's... And a mortgage. You have a mortgage and you've had.

Oh, so I'll have one forever. Yeah. And it's last time checked is you do pay that. Yeah, I do. So even though, so that's that whole app that you have to like upload your credit score, which is a bit. But apparently all over dating apps, like just your normal ones, your Tinder, Pingea, Ninja.

There's, uh, people are just uploading their credit score as part of their bio. Oh. Like that's a more important thing. I feel like if people did that in New Zealand, be like, who do you think you are? Yeah, what's that number? Yeah. I don't know what that is.

But also, if someone... I pay my bills. It's quite sexy, really, isn't it? If someone early on in a date was like, I've got lots of money and I'm rich... Wouldn't that be like a huge red flag? Well, it depends on me there because I want them to be rich and to buy me things for me to sit back, put my feet up and not have a job, just going to hang out. You make a great point. Do you know what I made?

Yeah. If I've gone in with that intention... Yeah, you'd be the worst. You could never do that. You're like a workaholic. No, I know, but if I did go on a date with a rich... Daddy. A billionaire with a yacht in a helicopter. My credit scores 9,000.

And I'm like, that's crazy. I thought 1,000 was the top. Maybe I would. I'll put my feet up. But I don't see this, as you say, being a huge factor in New Zealand. No. It's more like, are you a decent person and will you be kind to me? Is that too much to ask? Is that too much to ask?

The Z& Podcast Network This is a show real. Play ZDN's Flesh, Forne and Haley. Fact of the Day. Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay. It's Pokemon week here at Factor Make no mistake. This is a blatant attempt for me to, by the end of the week,

have accrued enough pokey points with the people at Lego who are releasing special 30-year anniversary Pokemon. Oh, really? to get the last voice, Venusaur Charazard set. Do you want to bring up my ox? It's a great, great theme song. The theme song had no business slap in this heart.

Have you seen the recording of the guy who recorded the theme song in English? No. You should look up, the guy recording it. He is putting everything on the line, reminiscent of a Michael Bolton-esque character. Right. Great theme song. But it is not what we want to talk about today.

I want to tell you that Pokemon is the highest grossest. media franchise ever. Ever? Ever? Not Star Wars, not Marvel, not Harry Potter. Pokemon beats it all. It has generated over 100 billion US dollars.

That's more money than I have, for sure. Yeah, that's more money than I have. And the real moneymaker wasn't the movies, it wasn't the video games. Pokemon Go. It wasn't Pokemon Go. It wasn't, no, it wasn't the games. I played the silver one.

It was the trading cards. Oh, yeah, massive. The Pokemon trading cards are the massive thing. The biggest slice of the revenue comes from trading card. Second part of it, the video games. Third, the merchandise. And there's no shortage of Pokemon merchandise. Yeah.

And then the movies and TVs are the much smaller portion. And because it even comes across my feed, even though I feel like I've got such a well-cured Instagram at the moment. People doing the revealing of the cards, the blind, like. Yeah. And then they're like, oh! They get it. It's so shiny a woman.

Quickly get it with some tweezers and then they go. Straight it and they put it into a pocket and they seal it and they're like, hey, ha, ha. I know some adults that kind of recently they got into it. They were just like, I just needed a... A new hobby and I decided I'd get into a bit of Pokemon cards. Grow up. What are you looking at your phone for?

You feel like you're gonna... Bro, no, I was just looking at the text messages. Somebody texts in saying, oh my God, my son's so excited for Pokemon Week. Yeah. Please give Navar a shout out. Navar. Shout out. N-A-V-A-R.

Navar. Navar. Navar. I do apologize for calling Navar. I put an eye on the end there like the Nisan-N-N-A-R-A. Yeah, and also shout it to Shannon in the workshop. Shout out to Shannon in the workshop. I think that's our Shannon.

She's got me again, hasn't she? She always tries to trick me. So it was 1996 the Pokemon Red and Blue were released, so 30 years this week. Have you got any? I've got Pokemon, in the original Game Boy color, I've got Pokemon yellow. That's where you could get Pikachu as your starter or Ev, and I always went Pikachu. Who's the guy that has it in a chain around his neck? Jake Paul just sold a Pikachu Illustrator Pokemon card for final.

million US dollars last week from 19. Like I'd buy a pool and a nice home. Yeah. You know what to me? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'd get a really nice home and a beautiful car. Yeah, but somebody had $5 million to spend on the Pikachu Illustrator. Well, wouldn't you buy like a, you know, like a work of art,

like a bank, see? It is a work of art. It's a super rare Pokemon card. It's Picature the Illustrator. It's so cute. You said that. I was a work of art. Excuse me, ma'am.

Is that the most that's, ever been spent? Or is that going to be a fact of the day later? Pokemon card. No, I didn't have that lined up. It's one of my Pokemon facts. Well, look, look, it's better than calendar week. It's better than chess week.

Slightly. I'm with you. The most money ever spent on a single Pokemon card is 16.5 million U.S. dollars. No, so that was the Logan Paul. That's the Logan Paul one. Did he sell it? He purchased it for 5.27. Oh, and then he sold it on for 16.

That's, um. Logan Paul, Jake Paul. US dollars, guys, that's over $30 million. That's nuts. That's what's cooked about the world. Like buy an island, you know? No, no, no, no, no, no, all right, coloniser. No, no, and why is a rich guy buying an island?

It's been tarnished. Yeah, oh, yeah, the idea of the rich white guy buying an island. That'd be why islands are so cheap now. Oh, I saw it on trade me property and I was like, huh? Yeah. I'm going to buy an island. Yeah, okay. Well, prices are down.

Prices are down, buy an island. Don't make a big deal out of it. White guy buying an island. Pest, pest, best. But they are so cheap at the moment. I'm just thinking maybe I'm a white guy that is to buy an island. Well, let's get it. What if we all went in together?

What if I bought her up? Keep it on the hush. Keep on the download. Just invite other rich people to the... No, no. No! It's ruined it. So today's fact of the day for Pokemon week.

The first for Pokemon Week is the highest earning media franchise. Fact of the Day, Day, Day. Day, day, day. Play. Play. Let's get to do-do-do-do-do-do-do-ha-ha-ha-ha. Kalae's ex-girlfriend, Kaila-Nuk. I don't really know what she does.

Media personality. What's her name? Kayla Nicole. 34-year-old media personality. A YouTuber? I don't know. It's giving. It's giving.

It's giving. It's giving. Well, she, this is where this was shared. It was a TikTok live conversation with someone from Love Island. Okay. You know, respects going down and down. Anyway, I say that, Rich from me. I love that show.

Anyway, so she was talking on this TikTok live and they were recording it. What? Is she nice to? Yep. Okay. Okay. You could not find a different looking person than Taylor Swift. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay. I'm saying, I'm saying. He's gone from, he's got, he doesn't have any consistency. Moka chocolate latte to a, yeah, an absolute. Right. Caramel shot. Yeah. Trim Frappuccino.

Anyway, so she was talking on this podcast about relationships, what not. She dated Travis Kelsey, who was obviously Taylor Swift's fiancee. She dated him between 2017 and 22 for five years, very serious relationship. And then it ended and they were talking about that. And she says that Travis Kelsey is the right, was the right. right person at the wrong time. I'm like, of course you'd say that now. So she ended it? Did she end it?

Oh, they officially called it quits in 2022. I don't think that it was ever made clear. I feel like it was dating. No, I don't know. Right. 2022, what was, um... Because it was 2020 when they started seeing each other. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, do you know, do you know, Carwin? Because you're are the Taylor Swift, Wikipedia, in Cyclopedia. What, if there's crossover? Yeah. I don't imagine there's actual crossover. I think they were rumoured Travis and Taylor in 2020, officially dating 23.

Right. Got in their or like engagement and stuff. It feels like they move fast. I mean, I think, you know, if they want to have a family and they're on the oldest scale of having a family potentially. You know the three real love. Your first love's your first one, your second, and then your third's to get over the second,

and then that's your real love forever. The third one is. Wait, so you're saying you're telling me the rebound is going to be the forever. Yeah. That's got Someone said that on maths I don't know if I should You know

Sorry Shannon Wait sorry Shannon She maths or love is blind They might have been lovers blind Okay I watch a lot of trash

Yeah right Okay I don't know if you should take Your advice From reality dating shows At this point You know what I mean Like why not

Do you know what Shannon Really wanted to talk about On the show today Was frambled eggs Oh my goodness And you guys I brought it up like three or four times And pickle pasta

She really kept trying to get Frambled eggs Which is you make scrambled eggs And then put one fried egg On the top of your scrambled eggs Just the yolk. Just the yoke. Sunny slide it up, baby.

Okay. So she's got her way. She's got to talk about that in the show. But before the show, she was really pushing hard for Framble-Ex. 9-6, so you can for Framble-Ex. No, we're not 9-6ing, 9-6. No, this is what we want a 9-6-9-6. This is what we're going to chuck a 9-6-0-800-ZM at.

Who was the right person at the wrong time? Maybe it's like you just knew, you had the beautiful connection, but it just wasn't the right time. When was it a case of right person, wrong time. Travis Kelsey's ex-girlfriend has said that that's what he was to her. Wrong timing. And it's hard. You know, I was reflecting on this myself. This happened to me.

Did it? It's interesting. Yeah, when I was 2008, 18, and I went overseas for a little bit, like six months, and I was over there, and I was with a boy, and he stayed. He stayed over in London to do his O.E., and I came back to New Zealand to go to drama school and become a famous actress and win an Oscar. And how did that go? ZM and

Flethorn and Haley ZM Yeah good And no I love it here But it was odd And then he came home a year later To visit And he had had a

He got an Italian girlfriend And I was with someone And it was like There's this just this little thing We're still friends now Oh We're friends now I guess it was just the right place

Wrong time Or right person wrong time Who knows if they would have been The right person I had this when I was young I had polio and I saw Elvis on TV. Yeah. And I did the dancing and I had to run away from some bullies.

And I always sat next to a lovely girl called Jenny on the bus. We met up throughout life at various stages. She never really wanted me until right at the end when she had HIV. And then she dumped a kid on me and then died. That's forest gum born. Love is like her mom's the chocolate. Thank you for your really old reference. I'm never going to know.

I think that's a timeless reference. So someone messaged my cousin realized the best man was a soulmate. The wrong time being during his speech at her wedding. Oh. Wait. So she's getting married to someone else. She's hearing the best man give a speech and she's looking at him being like, oh. That's my one.

That's the one. Uh-oh. That is definitely the wrong bloody time. Okay, keep your text coming in. 9-696-0-800, dials at emerson number. Who was the right person at the wrong time? Right now they want to know who was the right person at the wrong time. Someone messaged in lots of stories like this.

We fell madly in love at uni. Same humour. Same taste of music, same everything. Then he got a scholarship to London. We promised long distance, gave it a red hot go for three months. I mean, London to New Zealand's. Hard. The long distance.

He now has a British wife and a dog with better hair than mine. Oh, I've got to know what kind of dog. Okay, I don't think... I don't see a photo of this dog. Golden Retriever, right? I don't think you could be jealous about a dog. No, dude, sometimes my Golden Retriever, like, I don't even know what it is because he rolls in cowpool and stuff,

but like, it'll rain and he'll be outside and then when it dries, he'll shake and you just like, damn, that's a head of hair, Richard. Dude, I totally get it. Great here. Where's the most dogs? Anonymous, Joanne says anonymous. When was it?

The right person the wrong time. Is this me? Yes, you. Oh, perfect. So last year I had an amazing Tinder date with this guy. I had not really gotten out there for a while, so I was like, oh, a bit nervous, but ended up putting myself out there. Went on this really good date. He ticked every box for me.

Like, I was stoked. went home. Green flag, green flag. Yes, full on green flag. The next day my cousin passed away, so that threw like a huge spanner in the word. So sorry, that's awful. Yeah, it was horrible, like really unexpected. And I didn't know how to continue things after that just because it was so unexpected. And I'd never, like, gone through anything like that before.

Life just takes over, right? You don't have time for dancing and romance. Yeah, so, and I'm like a huge believer in fate. So I was just like, oh, if it's meant to be like it'll be. But then I kind of just fizzled out because I wasn't focused on it as much. So fate told you it wasn't meant to be. I'm sorry. I thought you said you're a huge flavor in cake.

And I said, me too. Same. That too. So where is he now then? No, I ended up giving it a go like a couple months down the track. And he definitely let off a few red flags. So I was like, nah. Okay.

So it was the right person. at the wrong time and then it was the wrong person at the wrong time. Yeah, that's amazing. Anonymous, thank you for sharing. Ask the messages in. Another person I realised he was the one at his wedding to someone else.

Yes, I stayed. Yes, I drank. Yes, I cried in the bathroom like a cliche and yes, we kissed at the end of the night. Wait at his wedding. What? No. No.

No judgment. At their wedding? Well, you just heard, Anonymous say, if it's fate, if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. My boyfriend dumped me when we were 21 wrong time for him, but not for me. We did get back together years later, though, and have our nine-year wedding anniversary coming up this way. Oh, that's a happy story.

That's beautiful. How many people did he sleep wasn't that time about? Not a question for now. Apparently, I met my husband at high school 11 years later. I still don't believe him. I had two pretty awful exes. I was deep in the South nannying trying to get over my last relationship, and I jumped on good old NZ dating. We started chatting, and now 11 years later married for Aiton with a kid.

That's lovely. Happy ending. Happy ending But she can't remember from high school So Must have been memorable I think the right person

Might have just walked past the studio window I'm just going to say Is that the person out there With the dog? Yeah There's an attractive Brown man out of the window

With the dog This could be right person Wrong time Because I'm on here You're on air And you can't go out And yeah Yeah

Well Fletcher's out of his Bloody seat No light as I was looking at the dog The dog's not on a lead What's the rule Around here I'm calling the council The ZM podcast network

Play ZM's Flesh Fawn and Haley Flat spot and hail is so silly, silly, silly that the silly list. Oh, for silly little poll today, I actually had to ask this question. So I was booking my daughter a haircut, and I just got so many options. Oh, yeah, like what? Red, blue. When I book a thing online, it's literally like bed trim.

Curly, oh no, it was like fringe. It was like mince. Do you want a minge fringe? Do you want a bowl cut? No, it was like short, light, short, heavy, medium-light. medium, heavy, long, light, long, heavy. There were so many options, and then every single one of them under them also had silent. And I didn't know because I don't have hair what that means.

So I send it to this work chat we have. Being like, what does this mean, please? Help me out, girlies. It's like, Uber. Literally exactly what it means. And it just means the hairdresser won't talk to you. And I was like, how rude to ought for silence. But why is it rude that we request that for an Uber driver?

I think that's rude too. I would never say no conversation, but I'm hoping there's no conversation. There should be an option on over as how, please, sir, please turn it down to below 20. The aircon should never be above 20. But it is an option. You can select cool or hot. You can select no conversation. Yeah, we selected cool on that work ride once and the dude turned it down to 25 from 29.

That's not cool. We're all crammed in the back. We're like, we're going to have to say something. We're going to pass out. I get, I mean, it's a long time to talk to someone. You know, lots of friends are hairdresses, and it's like, that must be exhausting for them. The other one's just talking all day. Yeah, true.

Not the hairdressers I know, they love a goss. And they know everything about everybody. Hair dresses, oh, wow, so much goss. This is today's question for silly little poll. When at the hair salon do you like chatting to the hairdresser? And pretty close. 53% said yes and 47% said no. Oh.

Get a bit of hairdresser. I hope we hear from hairdressers if this, if they find this. rude or not in the responses. I hope so too. I wonder if this goes for barbers because Sam, my barber, we connect we've both got two daughters. Yeah, we're both Tongan. The

Gold Tooth doesn't make you Tongan Hong? It does. I said, ah, so, and he said Marlowe. Did he? And he again, you're not tonguing. He banged a drum and... And he... And he knighted me. You do have Tongan... You do have Tongue Flames on your Ranger though, and... It's pretty cool.

Yeah, eight of them, though? Bring it back. scared enough of a Ranger driver. Wack a couple of tonguing flags on there. Oh, they're not getting in your way. Oh, they're not cutting you off. Ah! So we're at the hair salon.

Do you like chatting to the hairdresser? Only just yes at 53%. Some feedback on it. I like to watch them react to my trauma that I'm already over, says Charlotte. I talk to, you know, makeup and hair and, you know, beauticians and stuff.

They are like counsellors. Oh, totally. They get it all. They've got a comfort year and make you feel good. Charlotte, I'm not going to imagine his eyeball on her in the mirror reflection and she's telling her this horrible trauma she's experienced that she's managed to process

and this hairdresser is like, what are you doing to me? Every day it's like, you know, they're John Aiken from maths. Yeah, exactly. I sort out your hot mess. Michelle said I've been going to the same hairdresser for over 10 years who've seen each other through heartbreak, friends moving away, births, funerals, weddings. We're not exactly friends, but I enjoy catching up

with her at almost feels like a friend of a friend. You only set your friends parties and you always enjoy catching up with them at those events. Oh, cute. Renee said, no, I hate it because they are three people. personal questions, but I also get FOMO when other people are having chats with the hairdressers at the side of me on the seats. And you just sit there.

You've got to give a little to get a lot. Yeah. That's what I'll say about hairdresser. Neve, it makes me feel like a fancy lady when I'm having a gossip with my hairdresser. Yeah, I love that. One of my hairdressers gives me a margarita. Really? They'll offer you a coffee, a glass of wine or a margarita.

That goes on top? They believe for the margarita. Well, they're not. They're obviously covering their cost, it's wrapped up. It's wrapped up in the cost. Louise, chatting randomly with my color tech about my new training as a DNA genealogy. She said her half-brother's been trying to find her father for years. Three days later, I found him. Oh, my God. An aunt and a cousin and his grandparents, too.

What a great. Wow, that's so cool. Kim said yes, but I tell her we can't talk when she massages my head and my hair because that's my quiet time where I drift off to a happy place. Also close your eyes. When you're getting your hair massaged? Who doesn't? But headwresses have told me before the people just get their eyes open.

I want an eyeball someone message in their head. Too intimate. Close your eyes. Too intimate. Yes, for 20 minutes. And then let's go silent and let me scroll my phone while you do your thying, says Juliet. Yeah, I get that. Lou, I'm just tired.

Please just snip. I need to go nap. You snip. I nap. I'd rather read my book, but it always makes me feel rude. So I end up making uncomfortable small talk and says Bex. Shana, no. Sometimes I tag AirPods and watch a podcast or maths.

take one at a time when she's trying to work on each side of my head. That feels rude. That feels like you've got your headphones on when you're dealing with the person at the checkout at the supermarket. And finally, Alicia, because I had a trainee, I was modelling for once, and she was chatting and got distracted, and had a supervisor had to come and fix the haircut because she took a huge chunk. Distracted hairdressers make mistakes, so no, chitty-chattie. So for silly little poll, we said at the hair salon, do you like chatting to the hairdresser?

And 53% of you do. LAS, Z-N's Flesh, Fawn and Haley. We're actually very lucky later in the week. We're going to talk again with John Aiken from Maffs, friend of the show, lovely guy about, we're going to get some relationship questions from him, from our listeners. And I, we talked to him recently about this season of MAMS. That is honestly one of the most dramatic and toxic things I've ever watched in my life.

He was right and it's flawless and it's perfect television. The questions you have for him are piling up. Yeah, and also some off-year. You know, I just think I've got stuff to share with John. But I was watching maths. It was a dinner party night last night. And one, it was a little bit late, you know.

But I couldn't look away. I had to get it in. This is why you're tired today. Did you stay up watching maths? And then I was super stimulated because during maths, I realised I have three group chats going on discussing maths, all of which are on different episodes. So I was messaging.

Oh, wow. Where's your timeline? Are you at the front of the... Well, I'm going to, I'm actually going to dobb in a crime here. Oh, God. My mother has watched a head. Wow. Your mother has watched a head.

There is criminal, there is criminal activity happening in the lounge through my wall. I've got nothing to do with that. That is criminal watching head. Yeah. So she's watched a head. Of other people in the household. Yeah, yeah, of other people in the household. So she's watched a head even though we'd planned not to her.

So she'd message me things. So I was watching my episode, watching, messaging her, and she'd say, oh my gosh, that blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I can't believe Patsy's into this. No, my mom wouldn't do it. I thought they were like, this is rubbish. She even makes Craig sit there, but I will say he reads a book. But I think he's got one eye on Gia.

Right. So she's messaging me stuff that I don't want to know yet. So I've got a chat going with her. Yeah. Then I've got another friend that's watching exactly at the same time. So we're messaging as well. I'll say a man of heterosexual undertaking. Oh, wow.

Okay. Love's maths. Right. Really. And then I've got another good. girlfriend who's watching at a different episode, but like a week back. Okay. So she'll be saying stuff and I'm like,

Hon, where have you been? You just wait? Then I've got the other watcher who's watching at the same time. Then mum, who's ahead and it's absolute cast. And last night during an episode, I had, though all three were going at once. So I had laptop in bed with like Facebook open and a WhatsApp and a text machine all discussing different stages of and I'll say it and those that are watching, well, know exactly what I mean.

Brooke. Right. Your take on Brock? I haven't seen any... Brooke Shields. How? How have you not watched it after that amazing tease from John Aiken? About literally the... I don't even have to watch things I want to watch.

Let alone watch maths. I think you'd get hooked. Nah. From what I've heard, I get real bad second-hand embarrassment and cringe and everything. Oh yeah, you will. You will. And I would say, as well as the drama being next level on this season, the accents are crazy.

Real hard Australian. Yeah. Bib! Like how many syllables are in vibe? And there was a, I was watching one episode and I could literally see that the lip lady had been that day because all the girls had their like tiny red dots from the filler and all the lips were like a little bit too much

because I take a couple of days to settle down. I was like, oh, lip lady's been. That wasn't one of my group chats. Oh, lip ladies been. Oh yeah. Absolutely. No, people are like, spoiler alert. I'm not up to Lip Lady episode yet.

No, I'm like, but every episode's Leap Lady. I do feel sorry for John Aiken, who's going to join us in studio. This week. And you're just going to absolutely pounce him with questions. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I am going to. But it's, man, it's a good season. The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Fletchhorn and Haley.

The Bakehouse Cafe and Pockeno, which is just south of Auckland, famous for its ice creams and it's bacon sandwiches. are reading another famous reason to stop and get yourself a feed. Pull off State Highway 1. You used to go through Pocono. But now you don't. You kind of bypass it. But another reason to pull over the...

I'm always a fan when they bypass the town. Whoa. Yeah, I'll say it. I'll say it. Good morning to our Huntley listeners. Yes. You know. God, it's been so long since I've seen that Top Twins mural and I'm not.

I'm not sad about it. Good morning to our Nara Wahia listeners. Good morning to... Oh no, that was where the Top Twins was. No, no. Top Twins was Huntley. you were right, but that same road when it extended past, the Wakata Expressway.

That's right. Cut out Narawha as well. Yeah. I mean, I'm for it too just for traffic flow. It was always silly. It's a time. It's a time save. Right down. It's so quick now.

Pop into Huntley, by the way. Check it. I didn't I worry though when I go and see the factory. I popped into Huntley last year to go to all the Minecraft movie locations that were there. Awesome. Because the Huntley Power Station was... Wait, we sent Jason Memorial to Huntley.

Yeah, dude. I do. I'm sorry. We sent Jack Black to Huntley. You know. Wow. Tantley. Just so he knows there's also, you know,

Queenstown. Go back up north a bit because the Bakehouse Cafe in Pockeye has a egg Benedict pie. Okay. Okay. So what have we got in there? All your favourite bits of an eggs, Benny. But what's holding it? Pastry.

No, no, no, yeah. But what's the mince? Mostly egg? Yeah. And it's egg in that sauce? What's the sauce on it? Hollande's sauce.

Hollande sauce. Yeah, but it's a cheesy... Bechamel. Bechamel adjacent sauce, isn't it? No, Hollandees and Bechamel are different. How different? Well, Bechamel has flour in it. Oh, for God's sake.

Hollandez is just bloody. So I'm just looking into this pie that's been cut open. It's a lot of... Oh, wow, that's amazing. It's a juicy-ass-looking pie. Why is it trippy? So it's a lot of pork. It's a lot of pork.

And then it's got a whole. whole egg in the middle? Has it got some spinach in there? Is the green bit at the bottom a little bit of spinach? Because that's Florentine, isn't it? That's Florentine, but I don't mind it. And then the top is just the holiday sauce. I'm amazed that the pastry structure,

being able to hold in that much moisture. If you want to... If you're trying to visualize this pie, you can just go to the Bakehouse Cafe. Bakehouse Cafe 51 on TikTok. That's their username. And I tell you what, that's a square pie. I imagine that around...

I don't like square pies. Do you not? Why not? I respect. them less. And I fear, when I see a square pie, my assumption, my prejudice is that it's going to be a more subparmints. Really? It's just prejudice that I have. Okay. When I receive it, I'm like, this is trash pie. Now, I'm not saying that's true of this pie, but that's just, that's my prejudice. This bakehouse is open 24-7. Oh my God, 24-7. Whenever you're listening to

this, you can go and get one of these pies. Look, I'm looking at what else they've got here. Corned beef, taro and cheese pie. Oh, see, I like a funky pie. beef, spaghetti and cheese. Okay. They do a white bait and cheese. Okay, guys. Yeah, that's... Pack up the show wagon.
