Furthest or father's. Now I'm against you. Now I'm the bad guy. You know what? He can drive further. Yeah, yeah, yeah. For being a Brammeran. Farthest and furthest are interchangeable superlatives,

meaning the greatest distance. Furthest. Farthest usually refers to physical, measurable distance. Furthest is preferred for both physical and figurative. Like I went further emotionally. Furthest. You can pick and choose there, but furtherest, it's not. By the way, also gutterid, not a word.

Let's go straight. No, I was big, big spoo-s-foo. Oh my God, who are you? It was another life, Haley. It was another life. The Z&M Podcast Network. From your local community Facebook page, this is the top six. She's a roller coaster the last few weeks of summer,

but the headline reads, summer's last weeks could be a bit of a roller coaster, but it's not all bad news. We're focusing on the first part of that where it says summer's last weeks. Just insane, isn't it? We just bloody God. It feels like we only just started.

March is always good though. Yeah, March is always good. But that's what we're home. Although I saw like Australia's in for like a week of rain and storm. So does that mean in two weeks we get that? Yeah, it'll be tittering across the Tasman. Just shut it. So Christchurch got super hot yesterday, but today could struggle to hit 20.

It's all over the shell, isn't it? Huge dipsake. Because we were 2930-ish in Auckland and then that's dipping. down today. Yeah, well, thank God, because that humidity. Should I was damp yesterday. That humidity. Head to toe.

Top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer if it feels like you haven't. Number six on the list, jump in the microwave for 30 seconds. Vaughn, I don't think A, you'd find a microwave big enough and I don't think you should do that. You don't think so. Can you get a commercial-sized microwave? Look, I don't actually know what the biggest size microwave you can get. They're always the same size, aren't they?

Are we rotating round? Or is it one of those just stand-in-in-it-mic waves? Oh, one of those induction? like to say that we are joking. Please do not microwave yourself. The largest household microwave is considered to be the LG Neo Chef 56 litre smart inverter microwave. Now that is a big microwave.

That is big. I don't know if you can do commercialised microwaves. I won't be microwaving myself. I'll hyperfix. I'll hyperfix that at 2.30 a.m. tomorrow and when I like that. Number five on the list of the top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer. Go into the beer fridge at the liquor store for a while.

Yep. then run out and just run straight out the door outside. Don't take anything. Just run because then you'll get that contrast. Oh, yeah. That's warm. Yeah, that's nice. Actually, it is warm.

It is warm. It is warm. Comparatively. Number four on the list of the top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer. Jump into a warm bath and chuck on a VR headset of tropical waters. Oh, yeah. Imagine you're at the beach. Yeah.

What a nice idea. It's a beautiful idea. We're imagining being at the beach, actually, number three might be better. Okay. Top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer. Number three. Go sunbat.

at the local golf course sand bunker. What's the sand bunker? No, but you don't want to... A golf course. You know the hole in the... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you want to avoid getting in that sand. But if it's crap weather, warn, it's just going to be raining,

but you'll be on the sand in a golf course, not the sand of a beach. Right, but there is a fine spell, but you don't live anywhere near the beach. Oh, yeah. Okay, yeah, but you could get a golf ball on the head. Yeah, but you could get a seagull in the face at the beach. I'd take a seagull over a golf ball. Would you? I think so.

Yeah I don't know I think a golf ball would hurt more than a seagull landing on you Yeah I think so Yeah definitely would Especially if it was smacked by Tiger Woods What if he was smacking that Take that to the face

No thank you No thanks Well okay At your own risk I'll say that Or a helmet maybe Yeah At an at your own risk I'd lime scooter to the local golf course

But just leave the helmet on I saw a lime scooter helmet On the motorway there that Someone had hoffed it Off the overbridge Hoft it Hifted, I think, is what you mean. No, because it's not a hiff.

It's like a, it's a soft hif. Hoft. Hoft. It went off. It's not a thing. If you hiff off something, it's a hoff. H-O-F-F-D? It's not a thing.

No, it's not. It didn't feel like hift. Wait, it could have had a car. Well, yeah, I don't know. Are you saying hoft primarily first to a Germanic surname, meaning far more court? That's the origins. It doesn't, yeah. Number two on the list of the two.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't make sense. Number six. It literally does. The top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer. Pop down to the local botanical gardens greenhouse. Oh, yeah, they get warm. They get warm. Very lovely.

Very humid. The ferns love it. And number one on the list of the top six ways to make it feel like you had a summer. A lot of people thinking they haven't received the usual summer tan. Yep. Get yourself a coat of deck stone. Much cheaper than spray tan and lasts a lot longer two. A cabots your board.

I don't know if that's good for the skin, Vaughn. I wouldn't be telling people to... Neither is the sun. Neither is the sun. He's got you there. Got you. Got you. Got you.

He hoffed that your way. Yeah, hoffed it. It's another thing. It's not a hiff. It's not a hiff. It's like a hoff. You're going along and you go to the helmet

on the bridge and you just go hoff. Hoft. You don't hiff. It's aggressive. A hoff's a light lob. That is today's softs. Oh, sorry, wait, wait,

Urban Dictionary. Hoft. Nown to have a half hard, half soft penis. Sorry. Oh, Haley. There you go. Half hard, half soft.

Assamic. I think you've been hoffing. wrong. You've hoft it all wrong, mate. Which half is hard? The top of the bottom. Usually present upon sexual arousal. Arousal. Half hard, half's off. You've got to see me. I don't believe it. Dude! When I see... They've put it in a sentence. I now, don't read it. I reckon if it's making you do that,

I reckon don't read it. It's only six in the morning. That is the day's top six. Play ZM's flesh for an inhalate. Still little pollers, do you think we should still have school uniforms? So they can cost anywhere from 250 to a $1,000, depending on the school, and I guess the level of education. Mine was $1,000.

My granddad bought it for me. I remember that. That's crazy. Insane. And I feel like this argument is every time... What I don't like... This time of year. Yeah, yeah.

I think school uniform sure, yeah, you know, and as you say, it levels the playing field. Like, you're not having a fashion show every day at school, and rich kids can have nice clothes and kids that can't, don't, and all that. You know, Muffity Day was harrow. enough. Yeah. God, especially as a got

got hot, all those layers. Some high schools that have like no uniforms or even the last is it the last few years might have no uniform?

Yeah, we had seventh form was muffed it. What do you call it? Civil. Civilians. Civilians. Civilians.

It's expensive but you can only ever buy the school uniform from the specified shop. And that's the part I don't like. It should be just wear a white shirt that has short sleeves.

A white polo. Just like buy them from anywhere. Kmart for 10 bucks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Who cares? Yeah. And then take it down to the local malls. But then maybe that... Get the little... You know, embroider on. But maybe that makes it a fashion show too. If you've got a $10 Kmart one...

It's your interpretation. You've got a, you know, a Ralph Merin. But I'm just saying let more than one place supply the uniforms. Yeah. Because I played $50 for a... summer shirt and they grow out of them too. And then ours changed.

We had the first three years of one uniform. Yeah. Or the first two years in one and then the third one into a senior uniform. Because I was third form and then my breasts got quite large.

Oh my God, babe's that's right. You had to get new shirts. All new shirts. Yeah. Got fat tits. And so I had to get a new shirt. Or like your third form and your like whatever year,

what year is that now? Year nine. Year nine and your parents buy you oversight. So I had the same blazer from third form to seventh form. And you know third form was I struggle. Yeah, buy and big. Yeah.

So do you think we should still have school uniforms? 86% of people said yes. Did that surprise you? I really thought it was going to be like at least a few more people saying no uniform. Just for the sake of ease. Yeah. Some feedback on it. Haley says maybe a polo with the school emblem but your own short pants in a certain color.

It's so expensive and girls should be allowed to wear shorts. Great idea, yeah, love those points Why, do you know my high school brought in pants and shorts? Wow, while you were there? No, no, no, no, no, after. And they short in the skirts. Because ours were ankle lengths. We weren't allowed to wear pants until we were in the last two years of high school.

It had to be shorts. It had to be shorts. Shorts and socks. What in the cold new Plymouth winter? Yeah, that's wild, eh? Yeah. That's great. School uniforms are super expensive for the quality they provide and it's unfair on families that can't afford them, says Eilish.

They should just have school colors And you can buy the clothes that match the school color code Yeah Buy it from somewhere You know online Would be a lot more affordable I know there's no competition Is there?

The suffering builds character Says Dave The suffering builds character Another Haley I love the idea of our kids Because had so many Hayle's on this week Yeah I love the idea of

I love the idea of the Mal Kids High School lets you wear your hair, any colour or style, have piercings and express yourself through jewellery, which I think is kind of cool. It sounds low-de-sile. Oh, it's going to be big two. Excuse me, I went to a desol one school, and I turned out fine. I know with your bull-nose ring and all sorts.

Yeah, my blue hair. Yeah. Didn't hurt my learning. And your gang tattoos. No, we're still at the same job, aren't we? Yeah, exactly. Nicole said, I said no, but more in relation to sun hats and shoes. Like, do they have to be black? My kids are not likely to lose their hats

if they're their own hats. Yeah. But then everybody, they lose their hats and also a black hat. Someone said, that's the hottest color for a hat. Yeah, white hat. Shoes also. You get those white cricket hats that dome on the side.

Yeah, hot. Really cool. It's a cool hat. Caroline said, I wish I had a uniform at work then I wouldn't have to decide what to wear every day. Oh, yeah, that's true. I'm all four school uniforms. No one needed to know why I was poor

and had bad dress sense. Aw. Uniforms put everybody in the same boat. Yeah. Workplace, no, school. Yes, much easier getting kids ready in the morning

when they're out faffing around trying on multiple outfits. Life with girls, am I right? You're not wrong. So for silly little poll today, it's about school uniforms. We ask, do you think we should still have them at 86% of you?

An overwhelming majority said yes. The Zaymast Network. Now, there is a list of the most stolen cars in New Zealand. Every year they do this, don't they? Yep. And the aqua is one. Once again, King of the Castle. Yes, this was what producer Carwin lost.

Yeah. And ran a ram raid during the peak of ram raiding. Oh, that was such a cool way to lose a car. I'm sorry, I'm not advocating for ram raids, actually. I'm so happy they're down. Thank you, Luxton. The Highlux, 80%. I saw a billboard.

80%. Ram raids are down 80%. Are they? It was a national billboard. Oh, right. It wasn't just a billboard. Yep. It was a national political board.

Oh shit. Labor's not going to put that up, are they? Hey, we tried and we failed, but these guys seem to have reduced ram raids. Credit where credits due. So, Aqua number one, a lot of Toyotas on the list, five of the top ten of Toyotas. I mean, you've got your Corolla, your vits, your Hylux, which is the only Ute on the list, and the Mark X, which I have to Google every time. Sort of a big sedan-y thing. Right.

Is your parents' yute on the list? Oh, my God. Do you remember we talked about this a few weeks ago? They were at the... They'd flown away, hadn't they? Hamilton Airport. Yeah. And their yurt got stolen

And I said, oh wow How'd they get out the gate? How'd they get out the arm? Nah, Hamilton Airports New Carpark There's literally a post in the ground With one of those loopy chains And they just drove over the post And Dad's Yute.

No sign of it, by the way, It hasn't shown up. A shout out to the team at North Harbor Ford. Oh yeah. Ford Basseter over there. You are a Ford. They're trying to hook up Dad with a new yut.

Trying to find him make exactly what he wants. Oh, good stuff. Oh, that's lovely. That's lovely. That's lovely. So no Ford's in the top 10. We've got a Nissan, a Mazda, a Sabaru, and a couple more.

Mazda's. So, not a CX5, that's me. No, not a Mazda CX5. Any bicycles on the list? No, bicycles. Is my Cannondale?

Is my Cannondale on the list? I'd love to know a list of my stolen bicycles. Just the ones with two wheels at work? Would we include scooters or would it be just be bicycles? Sorry, I don't know. I don't know. Surely they do. Yeah.

So, Aquarola, Nisantita, which every time I see it, I know, every time I see what on the road, I've got a problem with the fact that it's got two eyes in a row. It looks like a tilde. I always thought they were called Tildas. Yeah.

Short for Martilda. Yeah. Yeah. Because they look like little koalas too, don't they? Yeah. The Mazda Demio. Was Bev driving now? Not the Demi-O.

She's got a Toyota. Corollary. I don't know what it is. It's nice. It's red though. It's nice. Yeah, you've been in it, haven't you, Hayley? It's lovely.

It's lovely. Lovely. And it's fuel efficient. Last time she picked us up. Yeah, okay. Yeah. By the way, if you're listening, Fletch, who is more than capable of ordering his own taxi,

gets his mummy to pick him up from the airport every time he gets into your plumber. The mum's like to do that. The mum's love to do it. But also, it's really hard sometimes to get an Uber out there because there's like three Uber's in New Plummouth. Yeah. Also, you're telling me that if you were going home,

your mum wouldn't pick you up in the afternoon. Hell though. They'd probably chuck it, turn off the app and get on that on the purse. Yeah, probably. Yeah, probably. You're right. It's same for with Bev.

The vits is up two places. Oh, okay. Yeah, it's gone from six. seventh most stolen to fifth most stolen the vits. So what are you meant to do if you've got one of these most stolen cars? Like try to get an alarm with an immobilizer?

Basic steps include removing valuables installing a steering wheel lock. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'd rather have my car stolen than look like a penis. Same. I'm so, so do you... Wait. Howan got one member after a car was... Do you use it all the time? A steering wheel? You know what? I actually

own a house of the car park now, so I have a car park. Wow. All right for ourselves, ladies and gentlemen. He's doing all right. Fletch doesn't. But actually my partner parks on the road and he now uses my steering wheel a lot. What kind of cows have you got?

So emasculating. A silver one? A silver one. No, come on. That's another thing I'd like to know. The most popular car. Color stolen. Is silver?

No, I'd like to know. Oh, okay. I think it's like white and silver because they can blend in the most because there's the most of that color. Yeah, yeah. Right. Okay. I've got a white car.

Good to see the Subaru and Prez are still on the list. Yeah. The Mazda is Tina, the Twitter and another Mazda there. The Mazda Tina. The Mazda Tina. Who's the Mazda Tina? Because a Mazda Tina would be a great Kiwi name for a car. Yeah, the Tina.

Oh, we had the Cortina. Yeah. I actually had a dream last night that a listener gave me their old Cortina. Now, if you're a listener and you're listening to the show and you've got an old Mark 3 was my favorite Cortina. I could go. I could go afford Cortina. I did dream. If we're doing it, I could go a bloody Mustang.

This woman and her husband came to the studio, driving the Cortina, and they said, we've got a surprise to you, and they gave me their cortina. And I said, I can't take your car. Why are you having these weird dreams? I gave them $500. Stop bleaching off the listeners. You're on this family's YouTube premium plan.

More on that. Oh, no, what's happened? More on that. I've got to thank another family for ready to one of their family plans. And I just think, I'm just open to being paid. your family plan The ZM Podcast Network Play ZM's FlashWorne and Haley

We've just learnt Vaughan's on another family plan He's leaching off the listeners Who? What family plan and for what? This is true, the Harris Family Plan. What's the Harris Family Plan? I received a message that said Hey man, I've got one spot left on my

Jewelingo Super Family Plan. Does that peak your interest? What language are you going to learn? I said it does. So now I'm on the family plan And I completely forgot Because he had a couple And what am I going to learn? Here's the bird I didn't know the bird was called duo

Yes Is this an owl? And we're still on Dr. Shawnee's Family Plan for Duolingo It is rich for you to roll your eyes at this I will say So it says I can learn Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese chess, maths, music

So it's not just doing languages now It's doing teaching other things Maybe I'll live music. I think you should go Spanish or Portuguese. I think Chinese. Because I could start a business. Yeah. Sure.

You could start a drop shipping business. It's an international language Mandarin, you know? It is. German? No, German sounds angry. Thanks Dave and the Harris family. I'm now part of the Julia family. You don't even use your...

Stop watching of people. Unbelievable. The ZM Podcast Network. We want to ask now, is there a TV show that you think went on too long? And it kind of ruined it for you. Because so many do. Many people go, ah, nah, it falls apart after about season four.

And maybe it was your favorite show. And then it just got ruined by the fact that they wanted to, I don't know, make as much money as they could out of this, these things. Well, if people are watching it, I mean, if people are watching it, it'll get cancelled. Yes, true. Well, HBO have made a bunch of announcements, and they have said that there will be likely,

likely end points, as they call them. I guess leaving the door open maybe. Yeah. For House of the Dragon and The Last of Us, which I watched the first season of House of the Dragon. I thought it was pretty good. Yeah, I didn't watch the second one. But yeah, I haven't bothered with that either.

And the Last of Us as well. So the House of the Dragon will end after four seasons and Last of Us, next season will likely be its last. Yeah, right. So, which I kind of like because it doesn't drag on, it doesn't get ruined. Oh, some of my favourite shows are literally like two or three seasons and they're gone. You're like, oh, oh, oh, I want more. Like how good was Fleabag bag?

Fleabag's so good, I know. You know who does it the best? British. The British. Yeah. Green Wing, that was one of my favorite shows of all time. They did a couple of seasons of Christmas special and out. Green Wing.

Was that the nurses? The hospital. That was very funny. So funny. The scorish each out of Leder. That was a very funny show. Oh, it's one of my all-time fives. It's got some very good actors in it.

Yeah, it does, yeah. The comeback, Lisa Cudrow, like three seasons down. Yeah, but sometimes they get cancelled because, yeah, no one watches them. Yeah. But the British year do it well whereas the Americans drag it out? I think a great example would be, do you remember Dexter? Yep, that just dragged out. Well, that's back again for another one.

I know, and they've tried to, I'm just not bothering with that. Prison break? I know that got a resurgence lately because it came on Netflix, but that drag out. down and got too silly. It's always when they try to carry on after someone leaves. Like the office, America, the American office after Steve Carell left, they did one more season, you're like, huh, maybe we should have all just left. Yeah.

You know, or what was the other one? About the big department store in America? Superstore. Superstore. Oh, that was great. America Ferreira left, Ferreira Rochia left. And they kept on going. You're like, but she was the lead of the show.

Like, what are we doing here? Yeah, totally. Yeah. Well, that's what we want to ask this morning. 0,800 dials at em, you can text through 9-696. What was the TV show that went on too long? Gray's an enemy. I mean, that's just...

No, but people still watch that religiously. I know. I know. HBO's made a lot of announcements in the last week. They must be doing some kind of... Look at us. Future planning. Yeah, they cancelled a panel.

Look at us would just be a great thing someone's trying to get some publicity. Oh, they're doing a look at us. I was going to say they cancelled a panel, but it was Apple. So there must be some big TV kind of... Is it like... Shake-out? Yeah, like, no, no, what's happening?

They do a big kind of a, like a convention. What about fronts? Yeah, yeah, and so they have a lot of interviews. Oh, look at us. Apple canceled a panel for the studio. Yes. Because of Catherine O'Hara's death, because she's in it. And they literally had just started filming it.

So they'll rewrite, right? You'll see a lot of headlines, a lot of news. news about TV shows, HBO. They also said the new Harry Potter TV show will be start of 2027. Oh yeah, they're not far away. So that'll be like, you know, this time next year it'll be out. They said that the last of us will likely end after the next season.

Is it bad beef between the lead actor? What's their name? Bella. Ramsey. She played Bella Ramsey. And who? She is. Pedro.

Bella Ramsey. No, with the director. Oh, right. Okay. Yeah, Bella Ramsey. They're saying that The Last of Us will end after it's next, and that House of the Dragon will end after four seasons. Man, no shortage of opinions coming in on the Tex-Mshaw.

Well, this is what we want to know. What show went on too long? Because I think this is good news, like a few seasons. They know that it's coming. They can end it perfectly. Like you say, it's like Fleabag. Perfection. It just doesn't drag on.

The British do this so well. We want more. Like there is no more. So messages. 13 reasons why I should have been a one and done season. It was like, yep, agree. It lost its impact. The longer it went on.

Because I was kind of when they, you know, boots at the end of last year was a big Netflix show. And then that got cancelled or not renewed. I was kind of like, good. It's perfect. Yeah, perfect. It was a good show. It was a story.

One season, yeah. The dome. I remember that. Yeah. They lived under a town and been put under a dome or something. Oh, yeah. Someone said lost prison break. Like, someone said any show that's all mysterious

and you don't know what's happening. Yeah. Because they try to drag it out. They should just make it seasonal. Wrap it up. Yeah. Vikings were the Ragnar. I gave up on that.

I gave up on that. I got out on. When Travis Fimmel. I feel like you'd love Vikings. I know. I watched it. No, I watched a season of it maybe. Okay.

A few visual reasons. Good. Yeah, totally. Riverdale went all weird with all the superpowers. That went on for too long. Orange is the black went on for too long. Simpsons should have stopped after What did I say?

Great episode of the Simpsons. Yeah, but there was a few more good seasons after that. Some Champagne Simpsons. Someone said Stranger Things in my opinion It went for too long Manifest about the disappearing plane Started off great

Then totally lost its way Lost too long That's the thing These mystery shows Yeah And I always feel like lost Because it was kind of You know

Matt Messaged. I used to like the show that's on every night. It's called The News, but they've introduced all these dumb characters in the last 10 years. I feel like it's lost its charm. Play ZM's Flesh, Forne and Haley. I, okay, a couple of things.

I would like to formally announce to you and the world, um, despite my better judgment. Okay, where's this going? Despite everything I know, despite historical evidence that I will not enjoy it, I'm renovating again. Yeah, great, okay.

Despite it all. I know, and I know what that does to the show, you know? I know what it brings into our lives as a trio, but I'm renovating again. You only just got the nails out of the drover with your magnet rake. Yeah, I know. I know you're trying to have nails in it again. I know.

Well, here's the thing, you know, my parents moved in with me, and bless them, I love them to pieces. And so far, 98% of the time, it's a brilliant experience. Love living with my parents. Can't recommend it enough. Tell us about the 2%. When I can't make love in my own bedroom. You know?

You can make love in your own bedroom. When people can't be shuffling in, shuffling out of my house in the way that they were, you know? Right. Don't you have a back door? Yeah.

I love Patsy. So the thing is, I just, I love living with them and I wanted to continue, but I just need a bit of distance. But I live in a cottage. It's not a big house. And so my only option is to renovate my large garage into a little apartment for my parents. So I'm doing that. So as a result, I need to get everything that's in my garage out of the garage. And you guys know, it is just, it's a mess.

in there. I've got too much stuff and you get rid of stuff and I have... You haven't found my Bissile yet? No, but I've got a theory. Bissle theory. Okay, someone's got... Everyone's accused me of stealing his Bissle. Well, I'm just saying you're the last person on you. I bought my own Bissle. Remember.

Well, can I borrow your Bissle then? You can borrow my Biss. No, I wouldn't... He'll keep it. He'll keep it and say it says... It's hostage. It's not. Wait, so is Haley the last person that you see... I think so. Oh, Haley. I don't have your Bissle.

Anyway, okay, so the Grammys was yesterday. We would have seen the red carpet moment started pouring in. Chapel Rones

two red carpet moments that's important. Jesus. Let's discuss that. How did that photo not get taken down from every social media post? Because her ariolas

have been covered up. She did the nipple loophole. Yeah, she covered just the nipple which is what people find apparently wildly offensive. I personally, a huge fan.

Big nip guy over here. Wait, well, that makes it sound like, Big on Arioles. Big on Arioles. Huge nips. No, no, it's not a huge nips. Let's pull back on this on them.

So the AI, like, photo scanning software doesn't pick up nip and areoli. People would have reported it. Yeah, but it had a... The breast was out, but it had a cover. People would have reported it, but, I mean, they stayed up a lot of the posts, so I'm sure they're fine. Fashion was, like, the fashion was high this year. It was fun. People were having fun.

Except Harry Styles. Harry Styles wore a cropped blazer and some jeans. And you were disappointed by that. I was disappointed because he's usually a bit more glittery. Yep. And he was up there presenting album of the year, which Bad Bunny won. Beautiful moment. Bad Bunny is in awe.

Like just completely shocked. It looks great in his Culliv. Looks great in his undies. Yeah. ICE, anti-ice speeches, left, right and centre, calling it out. It was very powerful. That awfulness that's happening there. And it was hosted by Trevor Noah.

Yes. Because Trump came out with a big truth social post about how terrible he was and un-talented. There was a very good part about Nicky Minaj not being here. She's still at the White House with Trump and everyone ragged. Shear really flubbed her presentation. She came out thinking that all of it was going to be up on the all of it. auto queue and then she kind of like missed reading the thing and kind of fell apart. It was like, she's done no prep.

And now many performances, great performances, Sabrina Carpenter, brilliant. But the performance, a lot of people are talking about is this one, Justin Bieber. Yukon was the song, but he is just in like cotton boxes and socks. And by the way, that's him. He's looping. He did it all himself. Oh, wow, okay. Somewhat of an Ed Shearin.

Yeah. But he's just in cotton boxes. Nothing else. It's a good performance though. Now, how is it going to work that Chappellone, I'm assuming, leaves the Grammys, gets absolutely, well, I don't know, maybe she does. I mean, you would, right?

Just go to an after party and just get drunk. Yeah. Then what, you wake up this morning, and then you have to get a flight tonight to land in New Zealand tomorrow. I don't know. Or the next day. Or did she have a day off?

I don't know. She might not have got drunk either. She might have just had a glass of soda water on here to that. Oh, God. It's the Grammys and I've got my tartars out. I'm getting drunk, mate. Anyway, I thought it was a good Grammys. I was happy with the fashion,

happy with the performances, happy with the wins. Yep. Great Ozzy Osbourne tribute. Like, it was a good Grammys all round. Nine out of ten? Oh, don't be ridiculous. It was an eight.

Why was it an eight, not a nine? Not enough scandal. Right. Yeah, true. More fights, more scandal, more... No, but that's... With the world in the state, it's in, I think it's nice that it wasn't one of those this year. The Z&M Podcast Network. What's going on?

Zatem's Fletch, Vaughn and Haley. We want to talk about the mean nicknames that you were given by your family. Because the reason why is so funny to me. Like this is a celebrity. This is a celebrity. I can't wait to do this. And more serious news, I've had my identity stolen for commercial gain. Here we go.

Here we go. For commercial gain again. This is debatable. You may remember some years ago there was a set of collectibles released by then-countdown, now Woolworths. Yes, I do. It was a little farm. No, we don't say that all-worded association.

I said mini bricks. But they were like Legos. We don't say that. We're not allowed to say that. We're not allowed to say that. No. You're not allowed to say it when referring to anything that isn't specifically Danish. Mini.

Colourful bricks. Yeah. You'll remember the farmer. The main character in the farm. Yes. Bore a striking resemblance to yours truly. Well, the court didn't rule that way, though, did they? No.

I took hush money. You took it. Did you? I took hush money in the form of. everyday rewards points. Oh my God, yes. And they were like, here's 4,000 everyday rewards points. I saw dollar signs.

Eh, it's not that many rewards points. No, it's not. It doesn't translate. It's a bad currency conversion. So imagine my surprise. When last night I go into countdown to acquire some chicken mints. Wait.

Hang on. Hang on. Park the bus. Nobody buys chicken mints. It was a new recipe. Also, chicken mints is the breasts they can't sell for four days. Yeah, it's moolied up bits. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

What are you buying chicken mints for? Well, we do all we've got to do. So it was for a recipe. What are you buying chicken mints? I always make a chili thing. I'm called for chicken meat. I would normally use beef mints. I'm disgusted, but you think you know someone.

You think you know someone and then they're going to buy chicken mints. What are you making chicken patties? A little bit. Sorry. I wouldn't make chicken patties. I just get a thigh. Get a thigh. And use it as a patty.

Oh, I know, so would I. You're the one buying chicken mints. Okay. Also, was it reduced to clear? It sounds like it was reduced to clear. No, chicken mints is reduced to clear. Because nobody wants to buy it. It's much chicken mints.

It's so dry. It's crumbly dry. No, it wasn't. It was moist. I almost think too wet. No. I think it could have done with a strain. Oh, yeah.

Please never. You get the excess chicken juice out. Please never tell me your chicken. mince was wet. It's a horrible image. It's a horrible image. It was a sunny chicken bits. Anyway, so I walk in and immediately my eyes are drawn to this

If he didn't have his green, not Lego hat on, he'd probably look a bit white supremacist with those blue eyes and goatee. No, it's that's black in a full bed, black eyes and a full beard. It's giving Nazi. It's not giving Nazi.

Yeah, he's got a ginger, jingy tinge brown beard. I mean, that's a jingy tinge brown beard. It's just a way I've got. It's a jinggy. You don't have just a brown beard at home. They haven't... That's ginger tinge. Oh my God. You know how I've got grey in it?

You don't have grey sneaking in. No, but you're grey grey cheeses. I think you're really stretching here to... If I was a chucking here... In a green hat, that's me. No, he's got a chin strap. Yours goes all the way up. The last guy's bed kind of went up like that as well.

Well, maybe after the last incident, they put a... They reduced the bed a little bit. Should we pop this up on our socials? Does this look like vaugh? Does this look like vaugh? At all. Yeah, put that at all. Yeah, at all.

This is a show real. Play ZDM's Flesh, Forne and Haley. We're having a good laugh this morning because Jellyroll, who won quite a few Grammys last night. We were having a laugh at the fact that his name is Jellie Roll, but he's lost so much weight that the sort of name doesn't stick. And then was it you that said that's not why his name Jellie Roll? No, no, I didn't say that.

Oh, he's changed his tune now. I didn't say that's not always called jelly roll. Maybe it was Carlin that said he can't be called jelly roll because of, you know. Because he was a chunky monkey. It was, yeah, sort of a self-deprecating nickname. After some extensive research, one Google search, why is he called jelly roll? It was a name given to him by his mother. Yeah, because he was a chunky monkey.

He was a chubby bear bear. Yeah. And like from that day, he was called jelly roll. And but now obviously it's Empec, right? It's so quick. Yeah, it's insane. Like he's a different person

and so many celebrities are now. Yeah, yeah. A strong wind could have blown through the Grammys and no one would have been still on the ground. I reckon it will keep catering down for events. Apparently it's from running and jimming, he's saying, running and jimming. It's crazy because I've been running and jimming.

That's the thing that anybody who is doing the hard yards behind the scene and not making it a public thing and then come out and they've lost some weight. Everyone was like, I was right, pack. That's right, because do you remember when you got accused of doing a ZemPick last year? Best day of my life. And that was anxiety and jimming. Yeah.

Yeah, that was panic attacks. Address, anxiety. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bit of gym. It's a special diet. I'm writing a book on it. But, because I have friends who had a real chubby baby, and they called her chubber. Yeah.

And then it stuck for years, which wasn't like a chubby kid. Yeah. But you're like, oh, yeah, eventually you're going to have to, um, Probably changed that. Probably retcon. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ritcon, the old nickname. Yeah.

Well, I thought we could ask this morning, like, did you get a maiden nickname? Well, I don't know if this is problematic to say, and I want to preface it by saying my mom's Māori. And she has a Paki-a father and a Māori mother. And she called her mother's mother, Māori grandmother, Black Nana. Like, that was how the family knew that Nana. I knew someone that called Brown Nana and White Nana. Yeah, Black Nana. That seems so long.

And it was like a term of, like they'd always be like black nana. Like it wasn't even about race. But they just called her black nana. Right, okay. Not great upon reflection. No, not great at all. Probably wouldn't rock it these days. Probably wouldn't.

Probably wouldn't hoffed out a bloody black nana these days. But it was the seven days. Yeah, yeah. You know, success in seven days. But I do think families, they come up with these nasty, nasty names, these little injunuchs. And then they spread by and they stick for ages. Maybe you go back for Christmas and grain gives you a nickname

because you've gone to uni and put on fresher 10 or 5. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whale. Yeah, and then the whole family calls your whale. Why'd they call you whale? She went to university. She really stacked it on. Okay, well, are we just taking, like, mean...

I said. I reckon... We had Big Nana and Little Nana. I feel terrible about it now. Yeah, Big Nana. Big Nana. Big Nana. What's up, Big Nana?

Boom, boom! I reckon mean nicknames from family members. Yeah, not friends. Somebody said, I had a black man too. Black man. Black man and white nan. Black nana. Okay, here's one to get going.

Literally two weeks ago, my mum got the nickname Elsie. Is this who we tried? There's a phone line lit up. We got the name L.C. Because we were joking around that she was being a lazy C word for not getting up before 6.30 a.m., which is highly unusual for her. So the full word became L.C.

the initials and then LC became Elsie. So now we call her Elsie and her name's even changed to the family chat. She's not even lazy. She just wanted a tiny sleep in past 630. There are so many great nicknames coming. 9-696 to text us. 0-800 dials it in. The mean nickname you had from a family member.

In past 8. I mean, we stand corrected. Jelly Roll has been documenting his whole weight loss journey two years hard mahi. That's not a my most epic strip down. Apparently he cries when he works out. I've been there. Never forget crying in a pump class. Anyway, we're talking about jelly roll

because jelly roll was given to him as a kid from his family. The nickname. Because he was a chunky boy. We want to talk about the mean nicknames you were given by a family member. No shortage. Some great messages coming in. Let's start with some texts.

Let's go to some calls. Regan. What was the mean nickname for a family member? Hello, in the morning, guys. Yeah, I had my granddad. My nickname was Peter, except it was spelt P-I-T-A for like Peter-Pitt. Yep.

And it stood for pain in the ass. That's perfect. Yeah, that's perfect. I learned to comprehend that as a little bit later on. I sort of, yeah, I sort of got the joke eventually. They really didn't like talking about their feelings, did they? No, they didn't. No, exactly.

It's the world's the world's smallest this week And different things every day Today is the world's smallest edible fruit Which is also the world's smallest flowering plant Maggie Barry over here trying to remember Blueberry. Way smaller than a cranberry. How about it?

What are we talking? Point three of a millimeter wide. The smallest edible fruit. Pepper corn. Pepper corn is not a fruit. Smaller than a grain of salt? Smaller than a grain of salt. Traditionally eating in Southeast Asia.

Sand. Dust. Sand. It's extremely high in protein. It's dust. It's extremely high in protein for a plant. And it's the Japanese government, looking at this as a way to solve.

the protein problem. Oh, okay. You know, protein, creating proteins is obviously a strain on the environment when you do it. So this is a bit of a different situation. I doubt you all have ever heard of it. It's called the Wolfier plant.

Never heard of it. You're right. It's commonly known as water meal or rootless duckweed. Is it like a chia seed or something? Bingo. Smaller, though. Smaller, way smaller. Here's a, oops, didn't mean to ring that, not a KPI. Here's a picture of some warfare on

fingertips. Oh, yeah. Okay. It does look like a... Through a fruity loophole, which was my drag queen. Fruity loophole. Fruity loophole. It's so good.

That is actually a fruit. Right. It's tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny. W-O-L-F-I-A, if you're playing along. At home or at work or on public transport. If you're driving, save this for later. You'd call it a seed, wouldn't you? Imagine that in a fruit salad.

It's going to get lost amongst the ender in, slices. In the melons. You'd have to put a lot in. It's rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. What does it taste like? Nothing. Well, what's its point? Strawberries taste delicious.

So it qualifies as a fruit, as their little individual fruits. It has flowers, seeds and a reproduction just like larger plants. No roots, no stems, no leaves.

What do the flowers look like? teeny you don't get a bunch of why are we even bothering with this well because it floats on the top of the water and you just scoop it up with a net and it's like good eaten traditionally eaten in Southeast Asia

because it's sea or rivers or lakes waterfalls waterfalls no it wouldn't be in the ocean it's salty it's a freshwater situation west trees yeah

and pollination can happen entirely underwater which is a bit different because yeah it's usually you know above ground and bee orientated bee or pollinator orientated

so today's fact to the day's smallest edible fruit the wolfia is also the world's smallest

flowering plant fact of the day day, day day, day day day I do do do

do do do to do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

the flesh morning Haley big pod okay so you know that I've been on the apps for a while now

and one of the apps I'm on. What, like the park, the Auckland City Council parking app? I've got A.T. Park. Yeah. Yeah. What other apps have you been on? I don't log out of A.T. Park. And it won't let me log back in.

It hasn't been in. It hasn't been to remember my password. I've got a Reddit app. I've got IHart Radio. Yep. That's where I choose to listen to ZDM. I've got Jewel Lingo. Yeah, all you do now, yeah.

Yep. Jewelingo. That's right. You're part of a family plan. Got some banking apps And I've got some dating apps A few Okay

Tinder's in there Yeah That's your common That's your go-to When you enter this world And I also have Raya Or Raya as apparently it's pronounced Which people

Most people wouldn't know about And I only know I mean I'd heard about it But then I When you got invited to it I was like This is so interesting Kiyahua

No ma'amai they said to me Raya is a app that I say you've either got to be hot, rich or famous. That sort of is the vibe. Oh my God, I just saw just Googled. Only 8% of applicants are accepted. Oh, it took me eight months or something? As of 2025, the waiting list to join was over 2.5 million people.

It's known as the celebrity dating app, but is used by creators, influences, and professionals. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, it's very hard to get on. That's insane. No, mine didn't actually take that long because remember I was in, yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway. Don't worry about the timeline. But, yeah, it's fun.

Also, a referral from existing members is required generally and profiles are curated based on creativity and professional background. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they kind of have a team and they stalk here and they figure out whether you're worthy of Raya or not, right? Really?

Yeah, it's disgusting. I was telling my mum about it. They're going to take a while to get through 2. Whatever million people. Well, I guess they just, yeah, Maybe they've got an algorithm. But just the standard, like the standard. I'm just holding up the standard to the lads.

They're guys wearing a bow tie. Yeah. And he's got a dog, you know? Is there anyone on there holding a fish on a boat or just a picture of a car? There's no fishes on no boats. Why your eyes gone so wide suddenly Fletch? Oh man, I was showing Fletch one yesterday. Anyway, for far out.

For far out. It's outrageous. It's outrageous. But it's also weird. It's not like... It's not like your usual dating apps. It's people all over the world, right? Because there aren't many people in New Zealand.

There's not many New Zealanders on it. It's not local. It's like, you put in your travel and stuff. No, no, no, the Kiwi Hoh. The Kiwis are right on there. No, I've only seen one example. She's a munger. We're trying to have a go.

We're trying to mow you down, Haley, and you missed it. No, no, no. All the Kiwis on there are hot. Anyway, so as part of being on rare, you're not allowed to screenshot, screen share. People have messaged them before that when you talk about it on air, you're getting in trouble.

telling a line of losing your members. I can say I'm on it, but I can't say who I've met on it. Because sometimes you'll see a daily mail story, and they'll spot a celebrity on Raya, and someone's taken a photo of their friend's phone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you can't take a screenshot. No.

And a lot of dating apps have gone that way where you can't take screenshots. It's called video, screen recordings and stuff. So yesterday, okay, once I took a screenshot to send to you guys, and I got the warning, it was like, hey. And it comes up, it doesn't screenshot. Because are you going to say the celebrities you've seen on there? Maybe in my show. Okay, right.

Yeah, maybe in my show. That's live. Okay. They won't find out if it's live. They won't find out. Okay, right. Like huge celebrities, that's quite funny. So I took a screenshot once to send you in.

You get this warning and it's like, hey. Because you didn't know that that was a rule. Yeah, if you do this enough, you're out. Yeah. And then once I tried to outloop the thing, And I was like, I'll do a screen record it. No, it knows. It knows.

You get one phone and take a photo of the other phone. I know, I know. And then I got my second warning. Right? And then they're like, one more and you're out. Yes, it's a three-strikes policy. Oh, Haley, what have you done? Yesterday, we were having a bloody good gawk at exquisite cup of tea.

Right. Absolutely. Exquisite cup of tea. What are we talking? What kind of cup of tea? Like a tall mocha. Like a tall... Well, that's a coffee, actually.

tall mocha-tokolato from Paris. You were having a look at a cup of joke. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Far out, you know. And I put down my phone and I go like this and I accidentally, like, swear to God, accidentally take a screenshot.

Because my phone's set up for a triple backtap. Triple back tap does a screencap. I took that off. I took that off. It's annoying. Mine's just like when I just grab that. Yeah, I've done that before where you go to turn your volume up And because your fingers on the other side

at screenshot. A screenshot it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Honest mistake. Honest mistake. But wow, third. I come back to my phone. Message from Raya.

You're locked out. Profiles under review. And I was like, this is it. And they don't let, once you're out, you're out. Like, that's it. And I was like, I've got to go. Even if you're like the hottest. Even if you are the hottest, funniest, greatest keywey.

Celebrity. Celebrity. Famous. Money, money, money. On there, right? They put me under review And I was like, oh my God, I've got to go back to Tinder.

You know what I mean? Like Minga Ocean. Last train back to Mingavu. And I don't want to. So in a moment of desperation, I decided to email the company yesterday. Of course you know. I do a small amount of research.

Because they're very hard to get hold of. Their website is like, apply, terms of service. Yeah. That's it. Contact us. And you click contact us? Nothing. There's not under contact.

There's not, I'm a big deal on Raya. Nothing. Please reply to me. I hate out and contact us where there's only a box. Nothing, yeah. Like there's not an email address? No, the link to them and work. Contact us, nothing.

So I'd Google, Google, Google. AI helps me out. I get a contact. I say, hi, hi, hi. I said hi, hi, hi, hi. Yeah. I just saw that my account is under review. After Capitals, another accidental.

screenshot. Oh wait, so you didn't tell them the first two times of real. Complete. You know, I had no idea. This was even happening. I just wanted to message because it was a total mistake. We use our damn phones as access cards for my work. And twice I've had the app open and accidentally snapped it. Honest mistake. Please reconsider the review. Yep. I get an email yesterday from Reese. Reese. Reese at Rayer. We've updated your request. To add additional comments, please reply to this email. Hi, Haley. Thank you for reaching out about this, rest assured, we understand that there are some instances in which screenshots are mistakenly taken.

Okay, right. Member privacy is a top priority. And I'm honouring it by constantly talking about it on ear. And our screenshot policy is a reflection of that. We would hate for anyone to feel that their trust in our community is broken, a screenshot of their profile, conversational person information being shared with others. That's fine. I totally understand.

We ask that you please delete any screenshots you've taken. I thought they went black. Or do they actually screenshot? Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. But it just flags you. Why don't they just make it so that it just goes dark when it's screenshots? Well, I would have shown you the screenshot that I took, but I honored.

I honored the system. Yeah. Please delete. Let us know if you have any questions of further assistance. Your account is no longer blocked. So, wow. So you're back on. Top tier.

You're back. Top tier. Great. I'll tell you what this morning. It is cranking. Yeah. Now all you've got to do is match with these people and go to Paris. Yeah.

Sounds like a great app. I guess I've got to get to Tokyo. Japan, hang out with Jeremy. Sounds expensive. Just go down the local jam. Jeremy looks like a banker, doesn't he? He's got a private jet, probably. No, Jeremy looks like an NBA basketballer.

Say no more. He's probably got a jet too. Probably got a jet. I was just going to say head down the pub and hook up with a munger, but, I mean, it does seem a little... It's cheaper. It falls a little short. It's cheaper.

Certainly cheaper. The Z&M Podcast Network. First, full length, not just a teaser trailer, has dropped. yesterday for The Devil Wears Prada 2 a movie that everyone was very excited about because the first movie was so iconic but after this trailer I have some questions

Oh Haley I was so ready I was just double checking something It was nearly so professional and then you just realised that your ox cord wasn't in It's like did I need to go to broadcasting school maybe

Do you know what I mean? Is this acting degree just a sometimes it's not helping. Yeah. Let's check out the trailer right now. On there, you didn't even press play. I'm in. I'm in.

It might have muted. It might have muted. Fletch, do you have the right ox? Yes, look, it's up and on. Okay. You hit it. There you go. Dick on the charm.

Sure. It's not just a magazine. It's a global icon. A winding road that brings us back. Together. again. Hello? Well, look with T.J. Max dragged in. Sorry. Who is this? Do you know her? Do I know her? I'm Andy Sacks. Andrea. She was one of the Emmylies. One of the what? Having a hallucination. Hi, Emily. You also know her? We were at runway at the same time, Miranda.

Haley? How was I? Where would you like to start? I am the new futures editor at runway. you are not. Yeah, we are all so thrilled. You know what's funny is you've changed, you have, you're much more confident. Kept those eyebrows, though, didn't you? So the whole cast is back, which is great, right? We've got Emily, we've got Emily, we've got bloody Andy, like everyone's back. But why, here's our question, and producer Carl, when you share the same question,

why are they pretending like they don't remember her? Why is Miranda Priestley pretending she doesn't remember them? Yeah, that's what I'm confused about because... Not that much time has passed. But also that they're saying that Andy is now the editor or whatever of a big magazine. So surely they would have still been like crossing paths. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe she's got Alzheimer's.

Or there's some kind of dementia art here for the character. No, it's just that she doesn't remember them because she's like the high-emite point of the castle and she doesn't remember all of the little peasants that come through her kingdom. So straight out the gate, the fashion's amazing. But yeah, Anne Hathaway's character who was the underdog, right? She is now like right up high. Right. In the runway magazine hierarchy with Miranda.

Again, though, why wouldn't she know her competition? Yeah, exactly. I know it is funny. It's a bit silly. Yeah, a lot of people are calling it out being like, sorry, I just don't believe that Miranda would simply forget Andy. Especially at the end, it's like she's had such a significant impact on her. But I'm not going to pick it apart because this is one of the,

movies are most excited about. And so when is it actually out? This year sometime. It is out. One moment. Please call it May 1st. The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Fleshhorn and Haley. Now in Tasmania, Australia, which is on top, it's on my bucket list. It's one place I really want to go.

I think a lot of airlines have even started a lot more flights from New Zealand. They're direct. Now I think Qantas and Air New Zealand do flights. reach out to tourism, Tasmania. Yeah, I'd love to go. Yeah, apparently though, it's very like, you've got to go in the summer, I think, is the best time.

Otherwise, it's a bit cold. It's a bit cold. It's a bit cold. It's a bit cold. I know. It's a bit cold child. Check a singlet on and get those rocks out of your head. So apparently a lot of tourists, as always,

are flocking to Tasmania, but there is one small problem because tourists have been flocking to hot springs in a small town in Tanzania. The only problem is that those are amazing photos of the hot springs They don't exist because they're actually an AI hallucination An AI hallucination, wait, AI is hallucinating now. AI is, yes.

So they've appeared on a travel advice website And that was widely shared by people Before finding out that they aren't actually real. Okay, good. But so while, and it's kind of like, the larger point is, you know, this is funny, but also like, this is the problem now with AI and planning your travel.

Yeah, I know. You cannot trust anything ever. So, um, a professor in tourism at the Southern Cross University in Australia told CNN that 37% of tourists are using artificial intelligence, um, for their itineries and their travel plans. 100%. Yeah, it is a massive. When it's amazing when you've got, say you've got three days in a big city.

You're like, what should I do in three days in New York? So good for that. I love, I love, I don't like museums or I love the outdoors or I love this. But I would just... But I would have just come up with a place that doesn't exist. Yeah, I know. Well, unless somebody's made a website or they've tricked it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't know. Well, it's an AI hallucination, and then people are traveling to find these hot springs in this town, and they're like, dude, they don't exist. And then you're just stuck in this kind of crap spot? town that actually doesn't have anything to do. Do they look beautiful? I went to Discover Tasmania.com. Where things aren't, this is reals by human.

And the first one was a beautiful bay. The second little video they showed was Tasmanian Devils going for a little run around baby Tazis. You know, I love. It would be amazing to go there. So I wondered this morning if we could take some calls on when there has been a holiday mistake and you've made a mix-up on holiday? Maybe you've booked in to go somewhere that.

has like long closed. You know, like some kind of amazing feature or a park or something. They're like, dude, that shut down like five years ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've just always had it in your head to go there. Or you go on like the one day that it's closed. Oh, that happens so.

Like so much overseas like Monday or Tuesday will be their day off. And you've gone all the way to the city to see this thing and you didn't check it was closed. You could have just looked and it would have just told you. Or I've done a thing where I booked a tour for the wrong day. and then turned up on the wrong day. Oh, God, the worst. And that's rookie travel planning for me.

Yeah, that's dumb, dumb. Yeah. So, whatever it is, 0800 dials at Amazon number. You can text through 9-696. What was the big holiday mistake? Whether you made it or someone else made it, or maybe you believe something you read online. What was the big holiday mistake that you made?

Yeah, tourists are flocking to a small town in Tasmania, excited to check out the hot springs. They look beautiful. Beautiful, stunning. The only thing is they don't exist because it's an AI hallucination. Great. And tourists that have been planning their itineries in Tasmania are being put wrong by something that doesn't exist. Just quick little Googles, I reckon, team.

Yeah, maybe just to follow up your sources. Yeah. Quick little check. Somebody was in Sweden. Sweden. Yeah, Google searched and found this legendary candy store in Stockholm, Sweden. walked all the way there, quite a mission. Yeah.

It was a rundown warehouse the candy store had shut years before. Oh, how gutted would you be? That's the thing if you're watching these like YouTube videos

of people going to places and it's a few years old, you might want to check this still there. Yeah, 100%. Luca, what was the travel mistake? Me and my family went to New York many years ago. We were so excited.

We're about to go see the Statue of Liberty but it was under renovations. Oh, what did that look like? Did it have that sort of like Plast-round. Plastic wrap around. Yeah, wrap around and scaffolding all over the place. So, yeah, it was a great day, but we didn't get to go see it.

It looked good from afar. Yeah. Oh, that's... Especially because you finally get to go to New York, you save up, you wait all that time, and then you get there. And it's the same way in Europe. So many buildings are behind scaffolding because they're crumbling. You think that's bad? I went to Hobbiton, Luca.

Oh, no. Yeah, they were scaffolding around one of the hobby holes. It just totally blew the whole illusion part. Yeah. Is that the one they're building another one or something? Yeah, they were like renovating one of them, like digging in. That gives me excited that there's a new hobbit hole. I know, there'll be new hobbit holes.

Luca, thank you. Jessica, what was the travel mistake? So my husband and I were going on our first trip overseas, and we got to the airport at about 3 a.m. and realized I hadn't done our visas. Oh, the Esther. So did you manage to get it before your flight? Like you can kind of...

Shaking and through tears, yeah, I managed to get them done. Oh, that's the stress, though. I know, because sometimes they can take an hour or two, but most of the time you get it pretty quick. When was this? How long ago? 2016, I've chucked it up since then. Yeah, I don't reckon it happened now,

especially if you're a shade of brown. I reckon a right of you in America without it. You've got a shade of brown in it. Yeah, if you've got a tinge of an end. Got a shade around. Jessica, thank you. Some messages. Someone said, just a FYI, Miranda Hot Springs is still under renovation.

Now, I looked at their website to get the directions there, and I saw some photos. I missed this, and I've gone and seen, this little yellow boxes, these renovations of Miranda Hot Springs are still underway. Someone said, so they went all the way there. And it was a bit, yeah. It was they missed that little bit on the website. That is a lovely spot. I will say when they are finished renovating.

I'd recommend the reason. Lovely. I had a family friend not really saw more was in different time zones, arrived a day early with no accommodation. Oh. Yeah. So, also if you look, when you use AI,

the top sources are always read it. It's at the top of the recommendation. Oh, okay. Details are missing or someone's got something wrong. Does Reddit not tell the truth sometimes? Not all the times. No. Crazy. The Big Pineapple in Australia, yeah,

not what I remember from my childhood. It's just old and cremate. and closed down a long time ago. There was a shop open with ice cream that also tasted old. I went to the big pineapple when I was a kid. I remember it being a giant pineapple. Sad to hear it's, A, not as big as it was, and B, closed down.

Oh. We were selling our house at the time and had two carloads of people turn up as they thought they had booked an Airbnb. But they'd been scammed and someone had stolen the pictures offline from the real estate, say, advertising it is a great vacation home.

What? So they turned up to this house, being like, where to stay? A scam. I don't even own this house anymore. We, my husband and I drove two hours from Rome to Bologna.

Bologna. Bologna. To visit the Lamborghini Museum, only to find out it was closed that day. Oh, God. Never seen him so gutted. Somebody said we went for an easy evening drive when we were in the US over the border into Canada

for the best fish and chips on earth. The place was shut. So technically they travelled international. for a place that was shut. Someone messaged they went to Hobbiton last week. Those hobby holes that were under renovation when I was there, they're finishing, go inside. You can go inside.

Is it new inside once? They just said, there's new Hobbit holes that you can go inside. How good is that? Remember we said you'd love? Yeah, and I did, and I loved it. I did, I loved it, yeah. And they're having their summer feast on my birthday weekend, and I went to buy tickets that was already sold out.

Sorry, we'll be on to it next year. So I'm expecting on my birthday weekend, which is coming up, you guys are going to sort of make up. Hobbit. Kind of busy. Where am I going to put an effing a hobbit hole? You've got a backyard. Your backyard's bigger.

I'll happily come to your house and build a hobbit hole. Oh, God. You would be the kind of person that if you won lotto would build a hobbit hole. I'm not even going to win a lotto. I'm just going to do it one day. I'm just going to build a Hobbit hole one day. That's a great idea. Well, I thought you're building a pub.

Where's the Hobbit girl going in relation to the pub? Well, you'll come out of the hobet hole and go to the little pub. One day. One day. Your backyard's going to be a mess. Yeah. Yeah. Few things to get in order.

Play. Play ZN. Fletchhorn and Haley. Question on Reddit that I thought was an interesting question. In New Zealand, are we okay with just rocking up to celebrities? To say hello. We get so many celebs in New Zealand filming movies. I know.

Or maybe they're here for, I don't know, festivals or concerts. I know. I just saw Amelia Clark's in New Zealand at the moment. That's crazy. She's in Wellington. filming a movie which you know nothing about nothing about?

Well, nothing about. But sent who have sort of brought up multiple times. Interesting. It's just interesting, I guess just stand by. It is a great question because okay, what if it was your favorite celebrity of all time?

You see them walking at the airport. There's no one around them. You're near them. In New Zealand? Do they look lonely? Because if I'm overseas, yeah, I'm having it. But like in New Zealand you want to be like, I don't want to be like, I don't want

disturb them because we want to keep that image that we're like we're chill you can relax here yeah we'll leave you alone sure but then you see like Jason Mamor who like is here all the time he gets swamped by people when he's out he does yeah he seems to handle it quite well until people take it too far and like try to sit at his left and stuff you hear of celebrities that we'll talk about being at a dinner table with friends and then someone will come up

and say can we have a photo yes yeah I'm sad I'm doing my thing. I mean, that's just common courtesy, though, wasn't it? If someone's eating with their kids or with their family, you give them some space. But if somebody, like you say, it's just like walking. But what if it's like a big, you want a photo with them? I know, like a huge movie star. If you love them so much and you're a huge fan, you then run the risk of them saying no,

and then that just tars your whole experience. I certainly wouldn't start with a photo. I just wouldn't rock him like, hey, can't get a selfie? I'd be like, oh, hey, how are you? A big, big fan. Just wanted to say, love your work. Imagine like a lead, like Densau, Washington or something. You just like couldn't.

No, not after the Equalizer, really, just terrifies me in. Really sweet me. Right. You're scared of him. Take out my entire family. Yeah. But yeah, I, yeah, and it'll just be basic. Okay, well, an interesting question raised on Reddit,

so we thought we'd put up a quickie little poll. A cookie little poll. And do you think it's okay just to go up to a celebrity in public? We've got some feedback. Okay. We've also got feedback, by the way, if I could just feedback some other. the feedback, people do think

that you look like that little Lego guy. Okay? Well, we can't say Lego, it's the Cowellers. It's the Woolworth's Delivery truck driver. Yes. They have a gainstole of my identity. If you've missed that, listen to the podcast. It's a loose. It's a loose. It's a loose. It's a loose. Likening.

He was happy to yarn. Didn't ask for a pick, though. Just a chance. Tom Hiddleston. That's big. Loki himself. That's pretty cool that he wanted a chair. No, I think we're big on reading the vibe.

Are they with their kids? Are they on a date? Do they look like they don't want to? Some people don't have the ability to read that social situation. No. They probably would just rock up. A little bit. I wouldn't want to bother them if they looked like they were doing something, though.

Says Jim. Yeah, I reckon I've done it, but only because I was a super-fass. but usually leave them alone unless it's like, you know, top tier. Yeah. Hell yeah, we're known as a place celebrities can come and chill out. Just leave them alone. Says Callum. Make it casual.

Have a convo, no paparazzi's my rule, says Alice. No peps. Yeah, no paps. Alice says, I hope not because I went up to Haley after a show to say how great it was. We're talking about celebrities. We're talking about celebrities. Yeah, exactly. That's why she's responded.

That's why she's taken part in this conversation. We're talking about, for me, I'm chill. I'm happy. I love to hear it. We're talking about celebrities, not C-list ebodies, okay? Wow. Wow. Yeah, that hurts, doesn't it?

Wow. Only one of us is on Raya. Yeah. The celebrity dating app. Only one of us. I haven't applied to be on Raya. Only one of us is on the celebrity dating app. I wouldn't have the sheer audacity to apply to be on Raya the celebrity dating app for two reasons.

In case someone found out that I consider myself a celebrity, which I do not. And secondly, if they were. rejected me. I couldn't handle it. Emma said, my best is when I see some of famous, I acknowledge them with a nice smile and a wave. Yeah, like, hey. Yeah, that's why celebs love us.

Where you are. Coming to New Zealand, yeah. Read the room, be sweet, yeah, polite and patient and don't, like, get in their personal space. All about the approach, isn't it? Yeah. The ZM Podcast Network Play ZM's Flash, One and Haley. ZM online on Facebook, Instagram.

We offered the chance for you to win. And I tell you what, we had the privilege of telling Gemma that she won and you've had a few hours to let it all settle Gemma. How are you feeling that you are going to Harry Stiles? I literally cannot believe it. My whole family, the whole day yesterday,

we were just so excited and we got to surprise my little sister as well and she was like her reaction was crazy. Wait, so Jimmy, because you're taking your sister which is so nice but she is, she was at school yesterday. Yeah, she was. Okay, so what happened? She came home. Yeah, she knew that the finalist were being announced so she was kind of waiting for it

and then I actually ended up lying to her and telling her that this little kid wanted. It's so mean. I know, but I had to say something. And then so I said that to her and she was kind of a bit sad the whole day that she didn't win. And then I went over to her house and she got home from school and surprised her.

I literally just slid it into conversation. I was like, oh, make sure you send me a copy of your passport because they're going to Sydney in December and she freaked out. Oh, that's so fun. Wow, you love your sister so much. You'll take her to a concert. Yes, so. It's amazing.

Would you take Philip? I wouldn't take Philip. I'd probably take Michelle, though. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you'd take your sister. Okay, that's nice. Well, I don't think, the Philip had known. And he'd moaning about the price of the chips, too. He'd take his own chips.

He would take his own chips, Gemma. They'd get confiscated and then you'd hear all about it. Yeah, and then I'd just be like, oh my God, I'll buy the chips. Well, Gemma, congratulations. Flight's tickets and accommodation to Harry Sales. Sydney's show, well done. Thank you so much. I'm so excited.

These are the new fitness trend You don't wear a watch anymore apparently You wear a stupid ring Well I'm doubling up today Because I don't like wearing it at the gym Because I don't want to be de-gloved like that person And the Blame in the Hydro Slide It wasn't a de-gloving

I heard if you haven't heard the story A guy at Auckland Hydro Slide Swung off the entry point To try to get into the pipe as quick as possible The hydra slide. It's a pipe. Yeah, it is a pipe, but it's a hydra slide. This guy who gets pipes from the dump.

I don't know the pipe Smith over there knows his pipes. I went to the dump shop there. Georgia, you were at West Auckland. Did you ever go to the dump shop on the concourse? I haven't been to the shop. Didn't you get a, you got a brand new Weber from there once, didn't you? And a bike. And a bike for his daughter.

How embarrassing. A bike for my daughter that I did up and lovingly painted. Oh, that's actually sweet. It's been ridden once. Whatever I might start. Because she knows it's from the dump. Because it's from the dump. Because it's from the dump.

It's called duck. It was literally a dump bike. It was literally called dump bike. Anyway, I go to the dump shop the other day. Lovely pop in. They've got a cafe there. You can have a coffee. A cafe.

Sorry, I'm not having a... Neither. I'm not having a dump. Dump coffee. It's beside the dump. The coffee cups are probably from the dump. They've moved the tipping point or whatever it's called over and now it's its own shop. I'm not having a dump muffing, mate.

No thanks. So I can expand my septic feel. I know. everything in that cafe was dropped off recycled, you know? Guys, back to Georgia's bad news, because her rings told her that she's, um, she's aged a lot more than she is. Like last week I was aged 29, and I was like, I'll take it.

Sweetie's young. Because you're 31, right? 31. Wait, so every day or week it gives you an A, your biological age. You get like a, um, you get a weekly update, and it'll tell you based on like the things you've been doing, the sleep you've had, all that kind of jazz. So my brain age today.

I think actually you know what I think Haley needs one of these rings. So good. Brain age today is 29 so I don't know if that's an insult or not. I've gone down. That's good. That's peak brain in it. Is it? You want a younger brain?

Yeah, I think you're like, when does your brain peak? Also probably depends on. A. Overall brain functioning and mental peak often occur between 55 and 60. Mean. Driven by accumulated knowledge and experience rather than raw progress. Processing speed while fluid intelligence, fast novel problem solving. Pakes around 20 to 30.

Novel problem solving. Novel problem solving. Novel problem solving. Well, yeah, what? So how old are you? So it says that I've aged three years. Why? I'm currently aging in a faster aging pace than expected for my age. Wait, you just literally did high rocks at the weekend. I aged probably 10 years from doing high.

Actually, yes, thank you. Bow down to me, bow down. Thank you, thank you. Your partner did it in. One hour 22. That's amazing. Yeah, some people did it. It's because I suck at running, so it was quite slow, but yeah. It's crazy on my running.
