but Vaughn, I thought 2024 was the hottest year on record, correct. But Vaughn I thought before that, 2023 was the hottest. You're picking up on a trend here and 2025 continued it, the hottest year in New Zealand on record. Wow.

So I've got the top six signs. It was hot. Next on the show last night I decided to cook my family a barbecue I took a gamble on something and it paid off Play ZM's Flash for an Haley I'm just having such a good year so far You know

And I love being back with my genuine friends Hey so yesterday I was like I decided Oh by the way I'm getting hot I'm on a shred Well I saw you're in a shred I was on a shred until An Arm and Gold

A pet in my eyesight Oh no Yeah that was a hey do you want to know what? What? I only ate half of it. I saved half for later. Where's the other half? Saved it for later.

Good on you for some restraint. That's really beautiful. It's funny you say because I was at the gym for quite a while and I didn't see Haley. And then I was like, oh, she went home. She went home. She was like, I'm getting hot, guys, I'm getting hot. I'll see you at the gym and didn't turn up. And then she was there.

I was there. And I was like, well, there you go. Do you want to tell everyone what you were messaging me? Absolutely not. We play because, like, you know, you've got to occupy the brain. Fletch and I played a game yesterday while we're at the gym. We won't tell you the question, but of a jeopardy here, the answer was skinny white guys or gingers.

So you, if you can write, I tell you what, if you message in right now your guess and what the question was, to 9-696, if you're right, we'll find you a prize. We'll give you the other half of his arm and gold. What question was asked in the blue chat? I'll get you on my arm and gold. I'll get you one straight out of our arm and gold.

Our arm cupboard here at work. The question. Tell me what the question was when the answer was It's always the skinny white guys All the gingers 96-96 We were so right though for sure Anyway

Anyway I'm getting hot So yesterday I was like right I'm gonna cook a nice healthy dinner And I had like a drawful of vegetables And some chicken thighs So I thought I'm gonna make skewers Yeah And I stacked the veggies onto some skewers

And then I got the chicken thighs Cut them up and I got these like You know those metal skewers And I kind of almost shish kebab Yeah yeah yeah I'm familiar I love them Yogut, marinate, all that kind of stuff. Oh, and posh.

Now, two things here. One, yesterday, Vaughn, you mentioned that you'd made a chimituri out of carrot tops. Correct. We scoffed. The carrot grains. Yeah, yeah, until we scoffed, until we had a dip to fingee. And it was so good, and I slopped half of the jar into my jar, and I poured it over the vegetables, exquisite. My brother.

Thank you. We should start a company. What, carrot top chimchew? I love how Haley's like, we should start a company. It was your recipe. Brother, let's go. Let's bring it on board. How does chim chri keep, though?

I feel like chim chri's got to be made fresh. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was delicious. I'd always be loaded with preservatives or whatever. So I had my chicken skewers, and I had my vegetable skewers, and I had a side of asparagus. And I was like, it just needs, like, something else when I was making these things. So I went to the fridge, you know, we just having a little loki-pooh

and I was feeling creative. I saw some bacon. So I was like, bacon, man. We've got to get some bacon around something here. Oh, yeah, now we're talking. Yeah, yeah. Went into the first. freezer and I found some prawns. And I was like, oh yeah, prawns. This is a really everything

barbecue. Got the prawns out, put them in the water, you know, to try to defrost them a bit. They looked fluffy and a bit old. So I was like, we're getting rid of the prawns. Back to the pantry. I would have just rolled the dice. What I'm like, yeah, I know you would. But your gut is made of steel and mine's made of candy floss. So then I go back into the pantry and I'm like, what can I find? And I find a big bag of dates. And I was like, oh yeah. Okay. Bacon wrap dates. Back and wrap dates. So I was like, I'm going to. You've got a chicken, vegetable skewer with bacon wrapped dates.

No, the chicken skewers are separate. The veggie skewers are separate. I'm making a third skewer. Oh, okay. Holy moly. Okay, so I've got bacon. And then I was like, I'm going to get a date, nice sweet date, wrap the bacon around it, and I'll barbecue that, yum.

How good is that going to be? Then I thought, oh, it would be nice of a bit of texture in there. Go back to the pantry. I find walnuts. And I was like, oh, I'm going to open up the date. How do you skewer a walnut? I'm going to open up the date, put the walnut in the middle, wrap it and bacon, skewer it. Oh, yeah, okay.

Then I go back. into the fridge to see if it needs a fourth final little thing. I find a little knob of blue cheese. So now I get a walnut, a little blue cheese, wrap a date around it, wrap bacon around it, skewer there. And I was like, this is going to be good or it's going to be terrible. I barbecued that thing.

It was, like, mind-blowing. I've got to make you my bacon-wrapped walnut stuffed blue cheese dates. I can't believe. Yeah, that's yum. Physically and to say. Holy shimoles. Everyone got two and they went hump, hump, and we just needed more.

I feel like you're just saying you've created this, but I'm sure someone's already done it. Well, I've had bacon-wrapped prunes before on the barbecue, and that's real yum. But not with a walnut and a blue cheese. That's a great combo. Guys, I need to bring you some bacon-wrapped dates with blue cheese and water.

Because I had these dates at Christmas, and there were dates and they were cut open and they had like goats cheese and pistachio in them. Yeah, so like that. And then a drizzle of honey on top. Wrap that and bacon, get it on the barbecue. Unbelievable. Now, I know I started this by saying I'm being healthy and I'm shredding.

But we need a little barbecue treat. Yeah. And thus was created Haley's walnut blue cheese. Yeah, I like that. Bacon wrapped stuffed dates. The ZAM podcast network. Okay, okay. Look at some numbers.

The number of sexual partners each age group finds acceptable. This is a study out of the United Kingdom. So it's what that particular. A particular generation finds acceptable. Acceptable as your body count. Right, as your peer. The number of people that you've slept with. And I'm guessing the older you are, the less the numbers are.

I want to say, it doesn't stack up well for you, mate. And I'm also not looking so good on this list. That's all right, Vaughn. Oh, you do you? I did just say, mate, we don't know who I'm talking to. Yes, we do. So people are very fixated on this number thing. It's crazy you've got two kids.

I know. that Jesus is. By the blessings of Jesus. By the blessings of Christ himself. Amen. So now the majority of people, 69% Nice.

Said in general, it's not something that they actually are super concerned about. You know, if they're looking for a potential lover, they're not actually worried about it. Would it be a red flag

if someone was like seriously like concerned about your body counts? Yeah, I'd be like totally. That's entirely none of your business. Don't you want some of the bit more experience? Yeah. Or if they don't, Do you know what's it to me?

As long as you're not still shagging all of them when you're with me, then that's fine. Women are slightly more likely to care about a low body count. So we're going, we do want you to have a little bit of experience. So I don't want to be number two or three for you. Okay. But the majority, 60% don't care at all.

But here are the numbers based on age. Shall I go from like youngest to oldest? So 18 to 24 year olds. This is from the UK. This is not my number. say that the preferred number of sexual partners at that point, three to five. Okay.

So I suppose you're young. Yeah. Yeah. That's, for them, they're like that. Now, is that a age group? Or are we... Isn't this age group meant to be more conservative now, though? Yeah, three to five partners.

That's it. And they are the most conservative, the young people. They're saying that about half of them think that it actually matters. Then we move to 25 to 34. Oh, God. I'm in the age now. I've sort of gone into a new racket. You've aged out of a new, yeah, you're in a new bracket.

Because are you finding now with the drop-down menus, you're scrolling down further and ming-ming-ming-ming-ming. Yeah, yeah, and 1982's a long way back down. Give that a red-hot flung. Now, while less of people from 25 to 34 care, so they don't care as much, three to five is still the same number there. Yeah, right, okay. 25 and 35 and 34.

It's a lot of long-term relationships. I'm just like clock and where at 34, my number was at. Yeah. I'll say it's more than five. This year? This year. This year, we're only 20 days in. Yeah.

Ha! No, I'm kidding. Age 35 to 54, that's us. We're the most liberal, right? We're the most accepting of it. And we'll accept up to 10 partners. This year? Up to 10.

And what half a Fletters holiday? Yeah. In what country? Ten. Okay. Yeah. But what about the first? the older, older group?

Because I would have thought they would be the most conservative. It drops back down. So age 55 to 64, 5. And then age 65 plus are your old school ones that probably met their high school sweetheart. It goes back down to three. So the most, the top number that we find acceptable as a society is 10.

Okay, so if anyone asks, just keep it below 10. Yeah. If anyone... If anyone asks and it's above 10... Someone just message in saying, par out 10 partners. that sounds like a lot of work. But not all at once.

Not all at once. Not all at once. You're not running out. This isn't how big is your harem? No, no, no, no. This is not. Over time. Over time.

Over time. Just 10. Now where are you stacking up there? It's 24 past six. Play ZM's Fletch forne and Haley. From the unmoderated comment section, this is the top six. Well, if it felt hot last year, that's because it was. 2025 was New Zealand's hottest.

Wait, I thought. It's 24 was our hottest. It just feels like every day it's getting hotter. Yep. Human activity, the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation of natural areas has increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by 50% since the pre-industrial area. God, and Haley on holiday was flying all over the planet as well. Christ, her carbon footprint is disgusting.

I know. I flew all the way to Sydney and back. Shame on you. Where did you go for each? Next time take the boat. Wow. The boat. So what did you row? to South Africa?

Apparently he did. Wow. I clicked the box on the tree. I didn't. I didn't. No one clicks that. I'm sorry. I want to see.

But there's no evidence of the tree. It's greenwashing. I want to see the New Zealand forest. Yeah, where is the New Zealand forest? I want to go for a lovely beautiful walk in a forest landed by an airline.

Okay. Well, 2025 was the hottest. And 151 years of temperature records. Before that, it was scorching. So, the top six signs it was the hottest year on record. Number six on the list, no one's wearing pants anymore.

Have you noticed no one's wearing pants? I don't wear pants. That's the best thing about living alone and not having flight mates is just wearing undies. Nothing. Yeah. So nice. Yeah, I'm partial to a little nude house truck. As soon as I get home, eh?

Off. My parents live with me now, though, so it's confronting. Okay, because you're all nude. We're all nude. You're all nude. It's like far out. I haven't seen that for a few years. Number one.

I don't know what you were talking about. Number five on the list of the top six signs it was a hot year. Ice creams now have to be eaten in the freezer or you just won't stand a chance. Oh. You're going to get an hour. You're going to get a sticky elbow. Do you reckon we're going to end up like, have you ever been to Ozzy and like the dairies have all the chocolate bars in the drinks fringes? Yes.

Like, do you reckon we're that close? I mean, Ozzie's been getting it. They've been in the 40s. And then the next day down to like 20. Yeah, but we don't do that yet, eh? No, not yet. And our dairies and servos? Not yet.

Number four on the list of the top six signs It was a hot year There's antiperspirant for your balls now Oh yeah It's called all body but that kind of It's been insinuated It's a little balls It's crotchy

It was a hot year Your flesh is currently sitting At a lovely medium rare Oh it's beautiful Actually perfect now Take it off the heat And let it rest Let it rest for five

Yeah you got a lovely little crackle on the outside. That's the day's top sex. Did you know, so it's 20th of January, the year's already slip, slip in away, the 9th of January, while we were still on holiday, is known as International Quitters Day. Round about the time that people already start folding

on their New Year's goals. Have you folded on any of yours yet? Did you really even set any? Just getting hot, eh? Get hot. Just get hot, yeah. Drink less. I didn't.

drink yesterday. Well done. Thank you. Great, congratulations. Yeah. Um, yeah, sort of, I mean, we, we start the year a little bit later, you know, so yesterday was day one for me. Oh, that was your first of Jan yesterday. Yeah, yesterday was my first of Jan. It's like the Chinese New Year, they are always a little bit late. Yeah, they always later. Māori is not for ages, man, that's the middle of the damn year. I think I'm going to kick things off in Matariki, actually. Oh, what a relief. You can reset then. Yeah, reset then. People set their goals for the year, daily. walking journaling, drinking more water, drinking less.

And they often go the route of all or nothing. And the moment that they stumble, they're like, too hard, couldn't do it, I failed, I'll just give up. And that's the mindset, all or nothing. Now there's a new way of thinking about it. They're calling it vegan plus cheese. And it doesn't have to just apply. It doesn't have to just apply to food.

Isn't that just vegetarianism? Vegan plus cheese is like committing hard to something. Big, like veganism. Yeah. But... That's no eggs. That's no, no, it's no nothing. Veganism, one of the hardest diets to stick to.

But you plus cheese and suddenly it starts to feel a lot easier. So you're going, I'm committing to X, Y, Z, whatever it may be, plus cheese. So wait, okay, do this in the, like, say for example the gym. Do that in terms of that. So you're going, I'm going to work out for an hour four times a week. And then have cheese. Is that how it works? No.

I'm lost. Okay, your version of vegan plus cheese, if your goal was to work out for an hour a week, sorry, an hour a day for four days a week or something, and then that starts to stumble, your version of vegan plus cheese would be like, I just went for 20 minutes four times a week, but that's better than nothing.

This is like California sober. California sober. Have you ever heard that turn? No, what's California sober? Don't drink this smoke weed. It is a term describing a lifestyle or recovery approach where an individual abstains from alcohol and hard drugs, but continues to use cannabis.

Yeah. That Miley Cyrus was California, so before that. Yeah, right. So you could go, okay, I'm getting no takeout. Yeah. I'm going to get no Uber Eats or something this year. And you're like, okay, well, I'm not going to, I'm only on the weekends. That's vegan plus chas.

Right, okay. If you're looking at a task ahead of you, like you've thrown a dinner party and you're like, oh my God, I can't do the dishes. Oh, I'm just going to leave it all. Just do some of the dishes, vegan plus chas. And people, this is one of my first. favorite quotes about this. Someone called it.

Where is it? It's so funny. Where is it? Half-arsing is the stepping stone to whole-arsing. That's actually a great saying. Half-Barsing. You're just like, hold on to that for the year when you're going like, don't just abandon it because you couldn't do it at perfection. The perfection is a mindset.

Vegan plus cheeser. And just like, I can do, I can commit to the goal a little bit plus cheese. The ZAMS podcast network. Play ZM's Fleshhorn and Hayley. So start of the holiday, I was in Changi Airport in Singapore. Oh, great airport. That's a wild airport. That's definitely one of the best airports in the world.

It's not. Lots to do. I like my airports to have indoor rainforests and butterfly enclosures. Exactly. Oh, Doha's got to be one of the best. Doha is a great airport. Yeah, Dubai is a good airport. So, Chamaldons, Hamilton's a pretty good airport.

New Plymouth Airport. You know what that's new. The indoor rainforests and new Plymouth. No, you know that's just a leak. Don't. Yeah, and that's just mold. But the mould and the moss. Excuse me, New Blument has a brand new...

Excuse me, New Plummouth has a brand new airport. No, no, it does. It's a nice airport. But I was in Changi Airport, and I had like half an hour until my flight boarded, and I felt like a bottle of water. So I found a store, a little convenience store in the airport, and it had a barrier arm to go into it. It was like by the boarding gates, and it was like this little convenience store. Great.

Nobody worked in there. It was a store of the future. What was a free-for-all? So to get in, to get in, like, you know, like a Jim Barry arm or at the train station, one of those, you know, things that stops you going in. Yeah. You have to put your credit card on. It will authorise your credit card. It will open the door, let you into the store.

You take whatever you want. I took a bottle of water. You could take chips, lollies, chocolate bars. Okay, crazy. And then you leave, and it just knows what you took. How does it know? It knows. But is there a checkout area where you go,

Bip. No. You just literally walk out and it's watching you. It's watching you. And I'm guessing it's keeping the cameras look at the stock. And then when you leave, that's wild. Here's how it, Kate. Say there's a little, there's a picnic bar sat there, right?

Yeah. I'm going like this. I'm just grabbing the one. I'm hooking a finger on and I'm grabbing two. But it's not going to know. It's not going to know. It's not going to beat the system. It's like weight removed.

So nothing, the shelves didn't look like they had weights on. They were, you know, weighted. I think the cameras. just see before, because it only lets one person at a time. Oh, wow. So I think they just know what you get, and then you leave and it sees it in your hand. I don't, AI, I don't know.

It was wild. I would go in, this is how I'd spend my time at Changi Airport. I'd go in and just try to see how much I could get away with. Do you know what I mean? Like if you're grabbing a little gum, hook another one. Yeah. Grab a second bag of chips. So you didn't have to tag on, tag out like transit, like transport. No, there was no checkout. You just walk out the store and it just knew what you took.

How many people were allowed in the store? door at once. I think just one. Okay, that answers my question. Because if there were like five or six people it might not see. It would get confuzzled. Yeah. Everyone calm down. So did you just get a water? I just got a water. Did you not try to get anything else? No.

I think I'd go nuts. But you're right though because you could try to be sneaky because technically you're not shoplifting because you could say you took two. What if you just went up to the chocolate thing and went, like, and like just like bundled up like 20 of them in your arms? How's it going to know? And then just went out like that. When you left, it would know what?

left. Oh, God. Because it knew what was there before you came in. Oh, no, but they're stacked. Like, it wouldn't know. But there are shops, like, there are big, like, department stores like this. So it wasn't Amazon trialing this.

Yes. We just literally walk in and walk out. And also, didn't they out that as they just had a team of people in India, like, watching security cameras and being like, one chocolate bar. Did they? I thought that was outed as not actually functioning AI. Right.

Well, anyway, this is the future Could you imagine like going to the supermarket And you just... Doing your shop? You just leave. And the trolley has cameras on it. But there is those, there's that, isn't there with the ones and it scans the RF as you put it into the trolley?

Yeah, and it adds it up for you. It's wild times. We don't need humans on this earth at all anymore. Well, don't say that. Don't tell the robots. Next on the show, it's Flagevine out of here, land. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Haley. This is actually aimed towards women.

I would have thought it been, the men might have needed a bit more direction. of what to wear on a first date? Like no track pants? Well, unless they're grey. And what are you doing for your first date? Exactly. Maybe it's a track pan.

Maybe it's a track pan. Maybe it's a nice track pan. Oh, I do love a tidy tracky. You know, like a nice, casual sort of nice cut trackpan. What about a really loose track pan with paint and grease stains on it? No. No, no, no. Are you talking daggy?

A baggie. A baggie. He talking to Daggie? No, no, no, no, no. Okay. So there's a stylist, basically, from the UK saying what not to wear on a first date. They say, like, don't wear something that's going to be uncomfortable, like a strapless thing that you're constantly like hiking up the tattas, you know what I mean?

You guys get it when your tattas are weighing you down. Yeah, all the time. Hiking up your way down. Yeah, all the time. Yeah, things like loud makeup, like a full face of that red lipstick blue, you know. Now, listen, I think you can wear whatever you want on a first date. I want to know when you went on a first date, how bad was what they wore

or maybe you upon reflection could look at yourself and think I did that maybe they came and they turned up and they were wearing a ladder hosan you know and that wasn't the thing we weren't at Beerfest but what if they were the German or what if they'd just been at a beer fest

I wouldn't go on a date with someone who's coming from Beerfest fresh from Beerfest I saw a there was a TikTok the other day and it was a girl who got a message from a guy on a dating app saying first date and he said she's like

well what's the where are we going and he said dress up and so she dressed up as a laurax you know the orange yeah from the doctor so from dr seuss from dr seuss like she's big belly like a hooded thing he was like oh my god she was like you told me to dress up that's not real that's not real that's that's fake i mean it's very funny yeah um well we asked this on instagram i feel get the ball rolling with this bad boy okay it wasn't enough space to type this story in the box so they've sent us a DM. Okay. My friend had a guy show up to a date

wearing a leather chest gun holster thing, like you see a spy wear under a coat with the guns here. But just showing a touch of it layered under his shirt, she thought that's interesting, asked him about it, and he said he thought it made him look

like a cool man of mystery. Oh, darling. I don't have a gun or anything. Sometimes they put my phone in it. Now, for the story, I would love to say that she married Secret Agent Man, but you guessed that no second date for weird guy. Putting your phone in, it's quite funny.

Yeah, in a gun holster. Oh, darling. So this is what we want to know this morning. 0800 dials at MS our number, text through 9696. Oh, great. What did a date wear on a first date? We want to know how bad was the outfit that someone wore on a first date. Because a stylist in the UK has said what not to wear,

and it's sort of, you know, your general would be comfortable and don't go too bold. Or, you know, Don't wear a gun holster. Yeah. As one of the messages we received came in. How bad was the outfit at the first date? Well, the word Udi's been used, so... Oh, no!

Yeah, but comfort, that's comfort. Fletch, you wouldn't. I wouldn't. So, Jamie said we were going on a walk for our first date. The date turned up in an Udi and his PJ pants. He then proceeded to get changed in front of me in the car park. Oh, my God. Jamie joins us.

Jamie's called through. Jamie, good morning. Hey, good morning. Was it a plain oudy or was it like a licensed sponge bob or a, um. No, it's a plain odie, plain ody. Well, that's something. Okay, and pajama pants. Yeah.

Okay. Got up really early to meet me for the walk. Apparently he couldn't sleep. He was a bit excited about hanging out. Okay, that's cute. That's kind of cute. He's gone from weird to cute. Can I ask about the footwear?

Oh, no, not cute. Wait, how early in the morning was this first date walk? It wasn't that early. Go on. It was like 9 o'clock. Oh, that's such a red flag when someone's like, oh my God, it's so early. And it's like 9. You're like, calm down.

Okay, and then so you go on this walk and then what happened? Yeah, I never saw him again. So what did he wear when he got out of? Because I got up to the part where he took off the Udi and the PJ pants. What did he get into? Exercise stuff, like shorts, t-shirt. weird that he couldn't manage to. He woke up early because he was excited about this walk

but couldn't find the time to put on exercise gear. Shorts and a t-shirt. Yeah, it was very interesting. Definitely. And Udi doesn't breathe. That shit is flammable polyester. You know what I mean? Yeah, it's an in a carpacable blanket.

In the car park in his cat. Oh, Jamie. Oh, okay. Wait, is that cute again? Is this cute again? No, it's not. No, that's not cute again. That's a whole lot worse. So 9 o'clock in the morning some grown-ass man is sleeping in his car,

and a car park in an ordie in his pyjama pants, and then he gets into his exercise clothes. Wow. Okay. Yeah, wow. Okay, I think you dodged a bullet there, Jamie. I wonder where he is now. I want.

I don't know. I'd imagine it's 20 past seven and say it'd still be sleeping. He's not listening to our show. That already got so excited for work. You arrived eight hours early. Sitting in the car park. Jamie, thank you some more messages. Oh, God.

I went on a first date to a really night of restaurant with a tall good looking bearded hump. Keep talking. He turned up in denim jeans, denim shirt, denim jacket, cowboy boots. All denim. I'm not against it. Not upset about this look.

It's given him a yellow stone. Yeah. Tall bearded man and all denim in a cowboy hand? Yeah. It wasn't the clothes he wore on the date. It was the plate of chicken wings he consumed with his hands, the orange spicy ones. How else he was supposed to eat? There's a knife and a fork? Get out of here, 9.4?

You know, sometimes they give you the gloves to eat wings with? I don't like that. It feels icky. I don't like wearing a bib to eat crab. You know what I mean? Don't bib me. I'm not a baby. I'm a grown woman. I'll slap it all down my shirt. Thank you very much. He showed up in his high vis from work and he smelt like a tradie.

That's not a bad thing. I mean, to each their own. There's something about, maybe like, second date, like, oh my God, I'm so sorry kept him straight from the sight. Okay. This cannot be real. Okay, go. My friend went on a first date to the movies where the guy wore a sombrero.

Okay. That's a large hat. That's actually quite rude to other moviegoers because you're not going to see parts of it. Now, it was completely unrelated to the movie. We weren't seeing a movie set in Mexico. He made it worse by having a two-liter bottle of milk and an entire rotisserie chicken as his movie snacks. That can't be real. That can't be real.

That can't be real. That can't be real. That can't be real. That can't be real. That can't be real. That can't be real. Oh, that's so good. He was wearing a band t-shirt.

Fine. It was my ex-boyfriend's band. 7-6-2 are going to need to know what band. We're going to know what band. If you're a big enough band to have a show. Did he know? Did he know and it was a gag? Because that's kind of fun. That's funny.

That's fine. Oh, yeah. I love for that. But if he didn't know and it was just coincidence, then you can't hold him responsible. Yeah. We went to a nice restaurant and he turned up with white crocs with car logo gibbets. Tight white denim shorts. Wait, tight white denim shorts.

And a half-open Hawaiian shirt. He's 42. and then had the audacity to be snappy to the waitress. Oh, no, no, no. I saw myself to my own car at the end of the night. I wonder if your car brand was one of his gibbets. Yeah, Mazda. He's got a Mazda, gibbet.

I don't think we have Mazda gibbets. Nissan, a Nissan gibbet. Yeah. Where do you ever buy a Nissan Gibbet from? Somebody else said, I went on a date with somebody who turned up on an Udi, but they'd been sleeping in their car because they didn't have a house. Oh, yeah, okay. That's rough.

Yeah. So the hoodie is. out there dating. Yeah. Nice that he's out there dating. Get on the apps, you know. Yeah. Still waiting on what band that was.

Yeah, I want to know too. We won't read it out. I feel like it was like blind spot. You know what? You know what? I feel like it was blind. I reckon that's right in the right. I'm feeling yes.

And bands that had t-shirts but also dated local chicks. The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Fleshhorn and Haley. Color me. Hippercritical. One more time. Color me. critical because I've been saying it's too late to say happy new year but I talked on the phone

A week on by Friday?

I think so. We have asked the people, you the people. For a cookie little poll, is it too late to still say Happy New Year? 61% said yes, 39% said no. Okay, so it is too late. Yeah. Yeah, but that's still a lot of people, hadn't it? Samantha said, Happy New Year is acceptable all of January if you haven't seen someone.

But February doesn't know. Yeah. She needs to know we're calling up Friday. We're calling it this Friday. Yeah. which will be what, 23rd. 23rd. I'm a big advocate for saying it for the first time you see someone in a new year,

even if it's November. I'll hit them when they're happy. No, I'm sorry. It must be a new year. Well, see, if you've got friends that you're only seeing for the first time in November, I cut them loose. Do you know what I mean? That's not really a friendship that's really sustaining you.

Beck said when you're a teacher and you go back to school, it's weird in February to still be saying Happy New Year, but you're seeing a whole bunch of students and other teachers that you didn't see over. I think that's good to see you at that. Yeah, nice to see you. How was summer? Yeah, how was summer? Yeah, that's nice.

The Pit has started. Season 2, that's on neon. I'm looking on neon now. But I'm still debating whether I save that. up and binge it all at once because I think it's like it's one of those shows you can either watch weekly or binge all at once. Is that season two?

Yes. Pluribus on Apple TV. That's by the guy who did Breaking Bad and Medical Soul, right? Oh my God. So I was watching this on the plane. I got up to episode, I'm up to episode five. People are saying it's one of the best. It's incredible. It's like 98% on Rotten Tomatoes and eight out of ten.

Someone describe it as a white woman trying to save the world doing the most white woman things ever. Is that a fair description? Yeah. Because I went into it not knowing anything. about the show. And it is very well done. It's beautifully shot. It's Vince Gilligan, so, you know, and it's brilliant.

Feel free to text in as well what you're watching, 9-6-96. Has anybody watched a Night of the Seven Kingdoms yet? The Game of Thrones, you know, semi-offy? A spin-off. I haven't seen it. Is it? Well, it's set in the same universe, right? Yeah, same universe.

And there's always that one same actor in them, but they're like a twisty, thrillery. Yeah, the guy from Lord of the Rings, what's his face, yeah, Richard Armitage or whatever. He's in every single one of them. They all like follow lots of different people who then intertwine at the end to like solve whatever happened. Real who done it. Like you never really twisty turning, you never know what's happening.

famous books. And he sold a massive, I think it was like 14 book deal to them. And then they extended it to another like eight books or something. Like Netflix have paid him. Yeah. For me once, the stranger, stay close, safe and the innocent. They're all good. They're all really good.

And they all have like amazing British actors in them. Okay. Yeah. Someone said younger on Netflix, very addictive, a cross between Melrose plays and Gilmore Girls. My sister just binged six seasons of that. Yeah, really? Six.

It's notorious. Often eating questionable chicken from a dairy. Yeah. And now doing something that all of, I would say most girls' mothers would have warned them against doing. You picked up a hitchhiker. Yeah.

Unless they're hot as a rule, right? No, no, no, no. No. Do you know who was hot? Who? Don't say Ted Bundy. I was going to say, Ted Bundy. I knew it.

He was hot. Was that the one Zach Ephron played? Menendez brothers as well. Yeah, but see, Zach Ephron made him hot. Made him hotter. No, Ted Bundy himself was hot and I'll stand by it. He did horrendous things. He got away with so much of it wrong.

Because he was a charmer. Yeah, right. I would have been, I would have pulled over for Ted Bundy. Okay, but that's one out of like a million murderers. Yeah. Like, most hot hitchhikers aren't going to murder you. This is not advice. No, I know.

No, listen, I know, and I have never picked up a hitchhiker, and I can guarantee, I probably will never do it again. You don't have a car to. No, I know. Oh, that's a bird. Savage burn from the left. Okay, wait, so this was when you were holidaying in the South Ireland.

Yes, so I was in a small place called Clinton, a population of 199 when I was there, baby. We've heard about this, Clinton, you love it. I love it down there. It's a small town, there's nothing there. And we were driving, my best friend and I, she was obviously driving, I don't do that. You're done with that. Yeah, yeah. And we were heading off to the airport.

This is the end of my stay. I've survived the farm. Through all of the trials and tribulations, I'm alive. And we're driving off to Dunedin to go to the airport and we get to Clinton, because she doesn't even live there. That's her big town, is this 200-person town. And we pull over to go to a dairy, and this girl comes running over to us.

And she's my age, and she is like kind of panting, and she's like, can you guys please drive me to Belclethe, which is a half an hour drive, we're already going that way. So you are hearing to Belcletoe. Female, my age, yes, we're heading through Belcloather. to Danita. She says, look, I've been hitchhiking. The man I was with was a pig hunter and he has lots of hunting stuff in his car and I'm

scared. I don't like that. Yeah, and so we were like, yeah, you know, and we kind of gave her a vibe check. I went to be like, can I see your passport? But I didn't really know what that would verify. You gave her a stamp and let her go through. Put that sticker on it and wrote some weird number on it and sent her through. I was just like, we were in this situation

and I was kind of like, well, what do you do to verify someone's not going to kill you? Well, was she a tourist? Yes, she was from Israel. Her name was Ella, but she said it with a cool accent. She was real cool. She was like quadling. Do the accent? No, no, no.

Do the Israeli accent? No, I won't. Just give it a guy. That's famously forgiving. Yeah. Gentle nation. But no, so we ended up being like, oh, okay. And she's like, please, girls, I saw you from across the distance and I got out.

And now we know, she's begging. She's abandoned in this small town if we leave her there. And the pig hunters around with like, I don't know, guns, I guess. So we said, hop in, gal. Hop in. Come on in. So we're like, she hops in the car. And we end up just chatting.

And I made friends with this girl. She's now going to listen to the podcast, she said. Oh, well, we'll stop judging her then. You could have told us. You should have told us that. But was that potential listeners. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, come on.

Well, now we're here, you know. And then she told me to listen to this podcast that she worked on about the warfare in Gaza. It was a bit heavy. But it was a good. I just hear to laugh out louder. Yeah, I know. But long story short. Have you listened to life?

That's lovely light. Yeah. Long story short. showed some kindness and I made a new friend and I didn't get murdered. Well, I feel better that is a woman. Yes, and she was a man. She was 27.

Like, I asked her how old she was and I could tell her vibes. And then she's like... But people ask how old I am, I say I'm 27. We all know that. That's what I'd ask to see your passport. And I got like, she's lied about that. She's pretty lying about wanting to kill us as well.

The ZDM Podcast Network. We want to know right now. Where did you faint? Was it in public? wasn't an embarrassing moment, a bad time? I've never fainted, I don't think. Or you fainted on the blood chair. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Had it needed enough, donated some blood. Just sorry, was that charity? Blood charity. I don't know, is giving blood charity? A charitable donation of one's blood and plasma product. Yeah. I fainted at the gym once too. Again, situation, common fame,

hadn't eaten enough, went a little bit too hard. I fainted a couple of times. It's a weird thing to wake up from, eh? It's a weird thing to wake up from because you're like, yeah, it is odd. There has been a famous faint. Yeah, well, the Australian opens at the moment happening, the tennis, and I went to the tennis.

It was bloody fun. A great game to watch even when you don't. I saw you went to the tennis. Now, were you well-behaved this year? Because remember the last time they told you off for talking. I got shushed. I was well-behaved. It was hot, though.

It was hot, and that was in all. Yeah. In Australia, it has been like super, super hot. So the ball girl, you know, one of the kids that stands there and clicks up the loose balls, she just hit the deck. And you see her, she like tumbles back. And the crowd's like, whoa. And then she's like, no, I'm good.

Gets back into the shade, but then just decks it. Poor girl falls onto her back. How embarrassing in front of, like basically the world. Yeah. And online now, you're just going to be a clip. Yeah. So it was 28 degrees in Melbourne. but in the arena it just it just like, it cooks in there, right?

So what, it would have been like 40 or something? Yeah, it was hot man, yeah, no wind still. She just hit the deck. At what temperature do they call off the tennis? I remember there's been years ago, they're like, it's not safe for these people to be playing tennis. They held off one game for us on the final. Because of how hot it was.

Because of how hot it was getting. And then they called off some other tennis in Auckland because of how wet and wild because it was raining. Yeah. You've got to love the weather. Yeah, but I mean, she would just... Okay, so a new policy, was implemented calling for play on all courts to be stopped

if the temperature reaches 40 degrees. And then it was... Exercising in 40, they were running. Wait, and then it was changed in 2002 to 38 degrees. Okay. So it's currently 38 degrees and then no tennis. But not 38 degrees just standing there going far out. It's hot.

Like us when we were in Bali, remember, hoof hot, and you just stand there. It's 38 degrees running around. All like this good. You're constantly on alert, running in, getting the ball and stuff. Well, we want to know. Because anyway, they had to stop the game. The player from Turkey

runs in and bloody helps her out and whatnot. But we want to know now where did you faint. Message is already coming in. Love this. Okay, 9-6-96 to text in. Oh, 800,000 em is the number. I fainted at my sister's wedding and had to be brought back to Auckland on a police boat.

Where was the wedding? Like, Wah hacker, darling, maybe? It sounds like a wahaker wedding. I perhaps on the island. But surely there's a... Sure, there's an A&E and Wah hacker. Surely they'd just slap some water on you and you'd get the fullers. But it's not just faint.

You don't just faint from being too hot. Sometimes you can faint because you're unwell or something's gone terrible. Or it's a wedding. You probably haven't eaten to get into a dress. Yeah, you haven't eaten to get into a dress and you've had three proscicos. That's what we want to know this morning. Where did you faint? Give us a call.

I think we need to eat some bananas or something. So many messages. People just hit in the deck all the time. So many faint. Is it mostly hunger and not having enough water? nervousness, blood pressure. Yep. But location-wise, for a faint,

you're probably not going to beat this text. I fainted at Carol Baskin's Big Cat Rescue 20 years ago. Carol Baskin! Carol Baskin. That is the most amazing text in ever. Yeah, and when all that popped up. They were like, I fainted there. I fainted there.

I fainted on top of the water tank. Is he still in prison? The septic tank. I think so. Are we giving that text in the week? I think we should because that is the most wild text. I find the Carol Baskin's Big Cat Rescue Park That's text of the week

That's a T-Suit Okay, that's text of the week Thanks to Animates, we'll hook you up with the $50 Animates voucher, thanks to Animates Making Happy Happened for Pets. It's fitting, she was at the Big Cat Park. This is perfect, this couldn't be better. She'll love Cat, surely.

Let's go to Kristen, Kristen, where did you faint? But it wasn't me, it was actually both of my parents. Oh, no. A couple of fainters. Yeah, so I was being a trouble-making three years. old and ended up standing on a bit of wood that had a nail sticking through and I hobbled over to my parents and lifted up my foot

with this board attached to it and said, can you pull it out? My mum stepped back and fainted. My dad went to go and pull it and then he fainted and my auntie told me to stay still and she ripped it out. Oh my god. Oh my God, what? I've done that. I've had a cringy faint. We have to date with your tetanus?

Do it and probably need to pop down and get a little tetanus jab. I don't actually think I went to hospital afterwards. I think they get bandaged. Savlon. What year? Was this in the 90s or the 80s? 90s.

Yeah. A bit of 70s. You've been a savlon and a couple of plasters. Fill the hole with Savlon. Yeah. Fill the hole with Samlon. Bog the hole and then plaster over it. Just put the Savlon's mouth of the tube right on the hole and just squeeze until it comes out the other side.

Sam, wait there. We'll go to Rihanna, Rihanna. Where did you faint? I fainted. at one of those summer day festivals. Oh, had you had a few too many wands? I think it was a mix of that and the heat.

So I was at the front of the mosh pit as well. Oh, and people faint all that. You always see the security pulling people out? Yeah. Yeah, well, that happened to me. He was like, he noticed that I wasn't too good. Yeah. And he was like, is you okay?

And I said no. And then he made me feel as light as a feather, wicked me over the gate, and I flashed entire crowd. Oh, on. Get the old Fanny out. We got on, dear. I did, I did, luckily enough. Fanny in the Marsh Piz.

You better not kill the mood. Fanny. You've got to flash the whole damn out. Rihanna, thank you, Sam. Where did you faint? Hey, guys. So I was a nursing student, and I was doing my placement in the surgical ward, So they said, first day, I can go in, watch the surgery.

I got all scrubbed into my gears, waiting around for the doctor. It happened to be a C-section, and the doctor pulled out the massive needle that goes in the woman's spine, and I hit the deck. I fainted. This is, it's all woman. But what made it even worse, my first-day placement is as I was falling, I farted. That's good stuff. It's good stuff.

I'm glad. It makes me heavy. They'll fall and fart. That's so good. I thought it was going to be the actual incision that made you faint. Not the needle. No, I think it was the heat and just standing around nerves. I'm so embarrassing.

Hit the deck. Yeah. How are you now? Did you end up carrying on with nursing? I did surgical for a little while, but then realized it's really not for me. Okay. So what are you doing now? She faints and falls and farts mostly.

Yeah, I work with people with disabilities. intellectual disabilities now. Less falling on you. Well, good for you, but less falling and farting in front of... Yeah, that'd love that. I would. Yeah. The farting is so vulnerable. Oh, so good.

Sam, thank you. Some messages in. I founded the boobs on bikes parade back in the 2000s. Now, I would like to know 099 pre or post boobes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Remember boobs on bikes? Okay, that was my question. I remember vaguely boobs on bikes, but what was the cause?

Was it a charity thing? Or was it a protest? It was to raise awareness for breast cancer, but it was just an excuse for guys with bikes to have topless women on the back of the bikes and go out of holding on to them. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then one year, I feel it was before the erotica expert. Do you remember erotica? Yeah, my brother worked at. It was that Comic-Con for Timmons. Yeah, yeah. Supermikes are mostly annual parade of topless men and women riding on motorcycles through large New Zealand cities. 2007.

Yeah. Yes. Zero-99 messaged and they were eight and got overwhelmed with the thought of the boots. Oh. All the blood rushed to the willy and none of it to the head and just hit the deck. Yeah. So it was a protest. About what?

Nipple disparity. Oh no, because then people were arrested. Because they protested. Because they protested. Yeah. I remember people thinking it was unsavory. Yeah. Well, I was run by that adult entertainer maker.

That's Ron Jeremy. No. No. No. No. Man, dingo. A young man tingo. I fainted recently during a manum gram, my tit was clamped.

Oh my God, didn't let go? Ouch! Because I've heard they're very painful. I haven't had one. And then imagine being in the clamp and you faint, so all the weight goes on the breast. That is holding you up. Your breast becomes your own sort of rope tether. Ouch.

Oh. Ouch. Information. I fainted in the neurology department of the white car. to hospital arrived to collect my husband who's not allowed to drive information overload from the surgeon, I think. Next minute I was out on the floor. Back to have me on the bed and my husband waiting for me to recover well enough to drive

back to Todonga. Wow. He don't want to hit in the Kaimai Rangers. No. My story about the Kaimai Rangers hasn't made the show again. I put it in the emails both days who've been back. It's just not making the cut, mate. It's not a great story, to be honest.

You don't even know the story. It's a great story. Or should we pencil it for tomorrow? Pencil it. It feels like it could be a podcast. Who must to hear my Kymai Rangers story? Do you want to just tell your mates? I told them.

They liked it. Did they? They were horrified. Text in 9696. Do you want to hear Vaughn's story about the Kauai Ma Rangers? Yeah. If enough people want to hear it, we might be able to squeeze it in before fact of the day. I'm just saying we might be able to.

It's interesting. No. We don't have time. We don't have time. We don't have time. It's a real no from them. Yes. There's lots of fainting stories.

Fainting stories. And now we can't get to them because you're like, who's my story about the Commonwealth Rangers? I wanted to tell my story about the Commonwealth Rangers. No one's texted, by the way. No one, not a sick.

I fainted. That's fine. I don't have to tell it. Anyone wanting to hear your story. You're dumb story. I fainted whilst pregnant on a waxing table, mid Brazilian wax.

Do you think it was the shock and the pole and the thing and the... Crazy. Yeah, okay, now the texts are rolling and other people need to hear a story. Are they? Yeah. I fainted at a cooking show.

I was standing on stage. It's a pity party. Falling backwards and then knocking myself out. My dress hiked up in front of 200 people. While I lay there, I wasn't allowed to move until the ambulance arrived to make sure I had to do myself a serious neck injury. I'm from a small town, so I had to change my neighbour to move towns after everybody saw my fanny.

I hate when you have to move towns because everybody's seen your fanny. Do you want to just, we've got a few messages and wanting to hear the story. Do you want to just privately text the story to those that have messaged and the rest of us don't have to hear it. I'm going to send it back. Do you know what I mean? I think tomorrow. I think tomorrow will find time in the show.

It's going to say it's a giraffe, isn't it? Yes, 50 centimetres long they can get up to.

Fitty. And some in some cases even longer. And they're a blue-black color. Yeah. Now that is because giraffs spend up to 12. hours a day feeding. Now, if you've been to the zoo and seen a giraffe. I saw some giraffes recently.

Majestic. And you saw them in Giraff Town. In Giraff Town, yeah. Were they neck smackin? I love it when they fight. I've seen the videos of them. No, they weren't fighting. It was originally called a camel apart.

Did you know that? A what? The giraffe's original name was the Camel apart. Yeah, but you can't call people a leopard now. Camel apart. Because it's a camel with a leopard's, they thought it was a camel. Shagde a leopard.

Shag the leopard. Ridiculous. And then the next up long, I don't know. Well, poor leopard. But that depends. Was the man the leopard or was the male the leopard or was the male of the camel? No, I was thinking the woman's the leopard and the man was the camel.

No, no, no. I don't think that works. I don't think that works. I think it's got to be the other way around. So they, if you've seen them, they eat a lot. They're constantly feeding them at the zoo. Yeah, constantly. Yeah, they've got some at Wellington Zoo when I was here.

It's lovely. 12 hours a day feeding. be familiar with the fact because you saw them in Afrika. Very sunny. Yes. Well, their tongue has a natural ability to not get sunburned because it spends so much time out of their mouth. That's why it's blue-black.

Ah, because they're constantly like licking. If you had your tongue out that much, it would need protection. You'd have to put sunscreen on it. The dark pigmentation is rich in melanin, which helps protect against sunburn. So it has built in SPF into the tongue. It's a very tough tongue too because their favourite food is

are leaf surrounded by long thorns. There's chemical deterrence and ants live in the tree that bites that the tongue is tough to resist all of these things. It's amazing, isn't it? It is. They've thought of everything. I know. They have evolution really thought of a lot.

Why don't we get built in SPF? Well, some of us do. And we mean white people. Well, no, because we came about in a low-sum environment. Yeah. Not the harsh sun. Yeah. Surely we're not far away from a pill

We just take a pill And it lasts like I don't know A month Just off some of an S-EF pill But would it make you turn your skin Like black You know what I mean Like you've now got like Nigerian skin

But I'm hailing Am I doing blackface Am I getting cancelled Am I losing my job? I'm scared What was the cult where they were drinking something And turning blue Oh that silver

Is that silver nitrate Yeah They look like smirfs That guy was true That was a wild doco Yeah I wonder if he would have had this A little silver

Yeah, he would have had the sun resistance of a giraffe tongue. Okay. Because he was the same blue-black color. So today's fact of the day is one of the animal kingdom's longest tongues. It also has built-in sunscreen. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-t do. Do-d-d-d-d-d-ch-d-d-d-ch--------ch------------ch.

The ZM Podcast Network Play ZM's Fleth, Vaughan and Haley I've just been called a little unprepared Should let Hayley tell her story Well, we did put it to a listener vote Do you want to hear Vaughan's story or Haley's story? And the listeners have spoken, Haley, what would you say the... I've got some votes.

Yeah, but not as me, am. Now, January... Someone says I've had enough time. This is, why we should never have asked. It's mean. No, it's fine. Okay, well, Haley's story about her auntie and the whole. Maybe I'll sit on it and I'll keep it private.

We'll be tomorrow on the show. Vaughn. Now, this better be a good story. Let me take you back to Thursday the 15th of January. Okay. A week ago. Returning from Mount Maunganui a family holiday to celebrate my father's 70th. So your parents saw me but didn't say hi.

No, we were at the mountain. Mom and Dad got back and they said it from a war. and they said, is Haley at the mountain? I said, yeah. And they said, we heard her before we saw her. And mum said she was in full,

she was in full performance walking down the street. She was in full show. Oh, okay. Peacocking down Mount Mong and then we heard her. She was peacocking down Mount Mongon. No, that's chicken noise, not a peacock. What do you do? Like scream like the devil.

Yeah, they're like a banchey. Yeah, they yuck. I don't like them at all. Much prefer when they're turned into, I don't know, fans. Yeah, me too. Go, go, go, outfits. Yeah, or, yeah, they're put on outfits.

Like carnival outfits or something, yeah. So we're back, like, heading back to my parents' place over the Kaimai Rangers, of course, stop for some of that delicious water at the top. Always stop for the water at the top. It's a traffic hazard. No, there's a beta pullover. There's a beta pullover. Always have a nice chat with someone there.

So coming down the Waikato side of the Kaimai Rangers. So far, I'm just going to say, I'd probably prefer your story. I'm at the corner of... A bloody classic yarn about me and my auntie. I'm at the corner of Tauranga Road and Teapoi Road. It's a stop there. Yeah. Stop, you're turning across some traffic.

Okay. It's when I see a dead chicken on the road. Oh, no. And I go, oh no, somebody's chickens have wandered onto the road. Oh, and it's been... As a chicken owner, I get very like, oh, no, someone's lost their pet chickens. Then I see another one and another one, and I was like, they've all come out, and they've all been...

They've all been... A slaughter and a source. A massacre. sad. Somebody's lost your entire flock of chickens and I'm driving. It's just me and my daughter Indy in the car. And I say to India, I'm like, oh no, someone's chickens and she's like, this is terrible. And then we realize, we've only seen the start of a chicken massacre. Oh, God. And we have no choice but to run over hundreds of chicken bodies. What do you mean? You have to run over chicken bodies. There's nowhere to go. They are littered all

over the road. Hundreds. Hundreds. Wait, were they pre-dead? No. Oh, Von! This isn't a good yard for a little Tuesday morning. We have no choice. There is nowhere on the road you can go to avoid the chickens. That daughter of yours is going straight into therapy over us. There was all men.

So we've come to the conclusion that a truck transporting chickens hadn't shut the crate properly. Oh, my God. Between the corner of Tipoi and Tohanga Road to the intersection at the corner of our tower road in Matamata. I'm sorry, just to pause. People are texting and they regret their vote. Yeah, I knew they were. Because not only is a chicken aside. It's a bit long winded.

It's awful. It's awful. It's head aside. Hundreds of dead chickens. Hundreds of dead chickens. All over the road. Impossible to avoid. I'm running over chickens. It's upsetting.

I'm upset. Is the car going? Oh, yeah, you can feel him because they must have been semi-fresh. No. You must have been semi-fresh. What do you mean semi-fresh? It must have happened recently. Could you have picked up a couple of good ones for the air fry?

I don't believe that they were eating chickens because they were brown shavers, famously a laying breed. What the, is it brown shaver? Do they have eggs inside of them? I didn't see any eggs. Was he scrambled eggs on the road? Oh my God, from inside the chicken.

My only hope is that some escaped into the wild. Yeah. Not all ended up being run over. Yeah, but what kind of life are they going to live when their whole entire community and family's been slaughtered? They're on the run. They're on the lamb. They're on the run.

Like, where do we go? In the eastern whitecuts. I'd head into the hills. I'd head into the kind of ranges. Plenty of bugs and skinks to eat up their chickens. Who I'm talking to, like, they could possibly be listening to this radio show. And we wish them well. They might listen to the podcast.

It was horrendous. Yeah, I bet. Yeah. Someone said they saw it in the news. You know what they don't tell you. What? The grease that comes off a dead chicken's body. Why that's so greasy?

The bottom of the car, like the wheels and everything, coated in the grease. You're trying to wash it off. Try to wash it off. And you know what it's like trying to wash away oil? It's just be. You've demanded this story on here. It's horrible. The text machine is not happy.

And be it. Well, I tell you what the listeners voted for this. Do us a favour in fire one. Give us the Haley story. It's not too late to switch stories. And somebody said it was in the news. It was in the news. And I needed to know the outcome because I never heard an outcome.

Has someone been held responsible for this poorly shut? What do you want someone to go to prison for not shutting a chicken truck? I don't want to go to prison. I want them to face some sort of tribunal. Some sort of chicken tribunal. Well, no, it'll be an unsafe load. It would be an unsafe load. You might get a ticket for an unsafe load.

Yeah. Okay. And how did you get the fat of your tires? Did you just get the kettle out and pour it, pour over some hot water? And you know what? It smelled like chicken. It smelled like stock. It's not like chicken stock.

When we boiled the water to get the grease off the car. Yark. Someone just texts in saying this story is foul. That's good. That's good. That's pretty good. That's good. It's pretty good.

That's better than the story itself. Well, tomorrow, Haley's got a story that doesn't involve the death of hundreds of chickens. No, it involves digging of a hole. A hole big enough for hundreds of chickens. No. Play that ends Fleshhorn and Haley. I actually kind of get this. I think I was laughing at this study to begin with, but having a good read over it,

I think I understand. As someone who has anxiety quite often, and it's been cranking recently. What are you worried about? I don't know. Is there a line around the corner? Run! That's how my body sort of... What?

So you've got a primal wiring for lion escape. Yeah, you never know. And so I understand this thing that like when I'm feeling a bit like, woo, that I can't watch anything of quality. You know what I mean? Like a well-crafted, well-told story show. I ain't going to watch something from Sundance or, you know, anything that's going to be at the MEs, I'm looking for easily digestible crap.

And that's what this study looked into. It kind of, the conclusion of the study is that binge watching reality TV can actually be good for us, help reduce stress, help us keep calm because of its predictable structure. We know exactly what's going to happen. There's no art to it. There's conflict and then it's resolved. Exactly. Right.

Whereas when life is all scramble jambled, it's like there's so much. to think about, whereas this, it's like, my sister Courtney hasn't spoken to me because she doesn't agree with how I'm parenting. And then the next episode's like, I invited Courtney over for a chat. I love Courtney. Right.

I hate it. It's like three episodes of this final season. I know I can never do reality shows. It's like, it just apparently it calms you, it soothes you. It's a mini vacation for the mind. Producer Gullies, who are big on the reality TV. Do you agree?

Yeah, I did this last night. I was like, I'm tired from our first day back. I've got too much on this month. I'm stressed out. Huck on some housewives. Huck it on. Absolutely. I just love all the like trashy, too hot to handle,

Temptation Island, all the ones where you know you shouldn't root for them to cheat on their partner, but you kind of do. So they're calling it observational psychology without pressure or participation. So we view stressful situations on these reality TV shows like, I haven't a fight at dinner. or something over wearing the same dress and we can watch them from a safe environment which allows us to just sort of sit back and be like

not my you know totally and I think I think this with relationships and all that I'll watch these people with their dirtbag boyfriends and they're cheating on them and I'm like well at least I've got my nice boy at home you know there's something peaceful in that when is because you know like I'm I've used to go hard on the reality TV

and now not so much I dipped into the Kardashians because my brain's been busy but maths Australian when's that Jew? That can't be long right? Feb I think first week of February I want to say

That's the one I froth I can't I can't I'll never And I know Vaughn you're the same And that's why you're shocked silent That we That's the one we can't miss

Right That's the So we've had the first look And we've seen The brides and grooms so far I haven't Have you not? Get amongst

I will say The UK season That was kind of airing Towards the like Christmas time Oh my gosh insane this girl that was on it is from New Zealand but she lived over there

and she basically was just like going after everyone else's husband like she left the show and then she had dates with every single one I'm actually feeling soothed as you even describe it I'm not even watching it and I'm feeling actually quite south-soved looking at the brides and grooms

of MFSA Australia 2026 what did you say February is June yeah early February. I'll say it they look as you expect yeah they've got a lash business you know got a lash business and I say a little but a filler in the lips One of them's definitely a PT.

Yeah, one of them's a PT, one of them drinks too much. And then there's like an old one. And this one's like rumoured to be like their most scandalous season ever or something. See, this is it. It's a beautiful, soothing, predictable format and I live for it. Watching other people just trash their lives. Yeah, well, I don't have to sit and trash mine. Play Z-Ns, flesh one and hayley.

All summer long a debate raged. How do you draw your C&B if you're going to draw? Is this in your friend group? Yeah, I just, everybody I talked to, it came up early in the summer break. Right. And by... Have we got a penny larko? I can I actually know, oh, can you put behind that candle there, Vaughan?

I'm just going to do it. Right. I'm not going to think about it. So for those that did not see this on our Instagram story yesterday, a C&B is an immature, juvenile drawing of a penis and balls. I think I got on a 45-degree angle, which was no. No, that wasn't an option. So I always say side. I guess I'm just like unique and kind of like different to everyone.

So the first option was balls on top, D down the bottom. Wait, can I just ask, why were your friends debating this? How did this come up? I actually don't know how it initially came up, but I did ask all of them sort of individual. Boys been boys, you know? And then balls on the bottom, D pointing up was option two. And the third way was just sideways with the ball sort of like. So it was down.

Down up, sideways. Okay, those were the three options. I reckon I'm sideways. If you were going to graffiti. Some damn big. Wow. D up, balls on the bottom with D up and the most popular response. 48% of them people draw it that way.

Is that because that would be a rouse? Yeah, it's sort of state of arousal. And that would be the state we'd most want it in? The state that I would personally most like to see it in. Yes, right. Wow. Sort of like balls at the top and it points. pointing down is the second most popular option of 39%.

Okay. Classic. And only 13% of people will go sideways with balls kind of like half parked behind each other. Sort of stacked. Yeah. The ball stacked. What? Was there any feedback for this board?

They sure was. Of course there was. Of course there was. Four, Chrissy is asking for a fourth option. Yep. All in one line, ball shaft ball. Oh, like a, like an, eyes, nose, ball,

sharp, ball. That's down. That's down. So she's saying she's not doing individual circles. We were not asking that. Join us tomorrow for do you invidivize the balls or do you keep it sort of an escrow to? No, I think this is, this one's enough.

Most importantly, with or without four skin, says Zoe. I may have indicated a cut on mine. A head of sorts. Yeah, okay, look. But that doesn't necessarily mean without it could just be. excited. Back. Yeah.

Anyway, Asia, I voted... This is the most stupidest Cillolidapole. Are we going with Fane or without? If you've got the time. If you've got the time.

I voted B, said Asia, but in all honestly, I don't know that I've ever actually drawn one. Is it time to get out my texters? Right. Well, that's a lovely mature approach to add-off. It is. Get out your best pens and get it done.

It's good to be starting 2026 with some hard-hitting questions, yes, Tessa. Thank you. Carl. Oh, no, I won't read that. out. It's a bit yucky. Is it? It's a bit yucky.

It must be yucky. Can you allude? We've talked about it the whole thing and there's a... Yeah. Oh, no, Carl. The dashes. Indicating something coming out of these. Yeah.

The droplet. He said the droplets. Family show. Family show. First they said, Mal, I'm never that aggressive with my penmanship. I may have in the video where I presented these three options. I may have been a little hard with the... Well, your time where you just needed to get it on the board.

We need to get on the way the whiteboard is in. The producers booth at the time some video engineers and lighting experts were in the studio in the studio I'm wondering what the hell is going on. They were like, is this a job for somebody? So this is how you make a living of it? Yes.

How about the mortgage. Third way is exclusively for drawing on someone's face. Oh yeah. So when you're drawing on someone's face, it's a sideways. When they're passed out. With a stacked, with a stack test. Laura said, I also add a I also had a wee line at the tip

to indicate the opening. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, Laura, I was time poor. But your wreathral opening. Yeah, I was time poor. Otherwise, I would have also. Lisa, loving the third way, I've never seen it done that way before.

That's going to be my new way. Oh, wow, okay. Ball, man it's out sideways. Stacked ball. Well, you're welcome, Lisa. I'd say vast majority of women there replying to this as well, which is interesting.

Who the hell are these people drawing them against gravity, said Chelsea. Like, imagine drawing boobs with nipples face in the sky. Yeah, but, but they do defy a graze. Some of the boobs became erect when you're... That's actually what the song's based on. Yeah. They're defying gravity.

That's about erection. That's what an erection is. Yeah. It is. Imagine if your boobs did do the same thing. My me, sick to bang, gravity. Yeah, if boobs did the same thing, you gave me erect, and they were like, well, tell you what, ladies, that's a hard one to hide.

That'd be good, though. That's a hard one to hide. So for silly little poll today, we asked you, if you're drawing a C&B, which way are you doing it? 48% of you? Balls at the bottom. Be pointing up. The Z&M Podcast Network. Play ZDemns, Fleshhorn and Haley.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have a new movie out on Netflix. Matt Damon? Yeah. Do you think he still gets out? I know. And you know what he'd hate it too, some one movie years ago. So the big movie is called The Rip. I've heard great things.

On Netflix. Yeah, it's a cop movie. No one cares what it's about. It's just Matt and Ben, you know. Back together. Best friends. To boys. Yeah.

So they stopped by the Joe Rogan experience, not one of my favorite podcast, but that aside, some interesting stuff came out because it was just like two and a half hours of them, you know, friends with Joe Rogan. And like, it was quite unfiltered. Right, just good chat. Yeah, and quite a lot of it came out, including the fact that they talked about the movie making process and how they'd normally learned to make movies. Like you have like three big kind of parts of the movie. And they said you'd put all your explosions in the third part. Yeah. You'd spend all your money on that.

Climax. Climax, you know. But now they say, because Netflix is involved, Netflix wants something big in the first five minutes, and they want you to repeat the story. Attention span. Yeah, and he said they want you to repeat. If you're making content for Netflix,

they were told you have to repeat the storyline three to four times. Exposition. Yeah, so Netflix, basically, Netflix know that we're on your phone. Yeah, we're on our phones. We're not concentrating and they want you hooked into that movie or TV show quickly. I hate hearing characters give exposition. Same. Wait, so you're telling me.

Wait, but what is it? Plot. Exposition is basically, yeah, when someone will spell out in the most basic terms, what is happening and what we're going to do to do it rather than do it in a way that. Because I just appreciate your following along and they just cut and you're like, oh, they're there now. You don't need to explain. No, but if you're not watching, if you're dual screening, you do need that explained. Oh, my God.

Fletch, your apartment has asbestos, but that means within two weeks you're going to die. What are we going to do? And it's like, okay, so now we've just laid out the problem. Wait, I've got a spestis and my... Yeah, I'm sorry to say, but you do have spesostens. Did you not tell? Within two weeks, you're going to die. I'm going to die?

Yeah, sorry. You've won't and intestated. Yeah. Oh, wow. And then you go, well, I can't afford it. Well, I guess I'm going to have to do a bake sale. We'll just like, explain. the whole thing real.

Yeah, I'm the same. When you can see how obvious it is, obvious it is. Yeah, I know. It's bad. If only my father hadn't left when I was a... Could they say that that's a deal or no deal

from Netflix? Well, they just said that's what you sign on for when you make content for Netflix. They have these rules and that. And it was kind of like a little peek behind the curtain. Everyone's like, oh, interesting. Oh, God.

Yeah, so basically we are all dumb and Netflix knows it. Do you think, like, as a world where that's just going to, like, dumb us down, and then we won't be able to ingest any real, like, ass or... Yes. Which is why we might appreciate, you know, like, the nice movies and the, you know, the festival movies. Just some cheerful banter between three friends in the morning on your way to work. Sure.

Play. Play. Z-N. Flethorn and Haley. How did we end up talking about this Biskgoff treat yesterday? Oh, because it was everywhere. It's a food, it's a new food treat. It was everywhere. Vival food trend. Viral food trend.

Vival food trend. So to reflect on it, what was it? It's Greek yogurt. It's a packet of Greek yogurt with Biscoff biscuits rammed in it. Now we've got to show affinity for Biscoff biscuits because that's the biscuits Shannon uses to make her famous Shannon's lolly log. Which we won't get to have until February 20th because that's the next birthday. And I might request a carrot cake.

What? I love carrot cake. Who did I make carrot cake for? Oh, Shannon. Didn't I cook carrot cake? Was it a good carrot cake? Oh, it was for a man. I forgot. You made carrot cake for a man?

I did. And that man wasn't one of their two men sitting in front of you. No, yeah. I'll do anything for a shag. Carrot cake. Apparently. Turn up to a date with carrot cake. It's a way to a man's heart.

So Shannon took some Greek yogurt and rammed some Biscop in it. Now, Shannon, let's just go through how the process for those that may be missed. I literally just described. She took Biscopheff and she rammed it in Greek yogurt fletched. The beauty is in the simplicity. I don't need you to mansplained to Shannon, how she made this. I'm not mansplaining to you. A fellow man, I think we just call this explaining.

Shannon, I'm sorry for that mansplaining. Yeah, no, it's fair enough. It was literally just putting a bit of Greek yoga in a jar and ramming a bunch of biscoff in it. Thank you for explaining that. Yeah, you're welcome. I've already had some explain it, but I bought no drizzle. You guys were hot on the drizzle, but I see B.Y.O. drizzle. This is just a bit of honey drizzle.

Yeah, yeah, that'll do. Try it raw first. Rew on it. Did it mean to say it like that? Can I side note and remind everyone that my favorite joke is why does Snoop Dog have an umbrella, Foll Drisel or anyway, carry on. I wasn't fired in America for saying that. What?

You did, look it up. A radio announcer got fired for saying that. Damn. Born you've just eaten, you've just eaten some. But did you put Fulter's on it? What? No, because you told me to read it raw. Different spoon, different spoon for me.

Yeah, well, we know. Menagitis. So why did this radio host get fired for saying one of my favorite jokes? Oh my God, that's incredible. I think she said for drizzle my nizzle. Oh, I didn't say the last, but you... Okay, that's amazing. Okay, everybody needs to do this.

That is closer to Turamersuita than his cheesecake. If you did that and jammed in some coffee, maybe put coffee in in the interim. Oh, my God, that's incredible. A couple of espresso shots. Yeah. Sabrina Carpenter in there. That's really good, eh?

That's unreal. Should we try it with a drizzle of honey? I mean, you basically... I'm not, but you're basically having a pack of biscuits and a pot of yogurt. It's not the healthiest. But it's good. If you use the protein yoga.

We've got a bit of protein added in there. Right. Now I think now you're just... Not too much honey! Now you're just girl mathing... That's just a drizzle of honey. I'm trying to get hot. Girl massing calories. Wait, does the honey add to it?

I think so. Look at that. Oh, far out. Shannon. Well, yeah, give it a go. That's a 10 out of 10 for me. Do you know, if you had to made this a hack and claim this as a hack, this would have been a 10 out of 5. Now, you've missed a trick here.

This is wasted on us because we didn't Shannon's hack it. Well, I guess because it was everywhere. I felt like I couldn't claim it. Whereas my shitty little TikTok hacks, I feel like I can jump on those. Like putting pads on your feet to stop yourself from getting apples in the showers. I stand by that. She says a TikTok with three likes and she's like, I'm an early adopter.

It's been up for weeks. It's just a shit hack. Pretty much. That rules. Well, I am excited for our first Shannon's hack of 2025. Do we have one at some stage? In the cow. But tomorrow.

Tomorrow. Let's do that. So we've got Shannon's hack tomorrow and my great story about my auntie. Yeah. That involves digging a hole that got bumped for Vaughn's story about murdering chickens. I can tell the chickens about the, I can tell the story about the chickens. Long teas for the hack, I've got to go to my favourite dairy this afternoon. Oh, it involves chicken.

No, no chicken. Okay, good. I'm excited. The Z&M Podcast Network, play ZN's Fletchworn and Haley. Fletchworn and Haley's Trial Run. Well, we're trialing out some new segments. Yes, we are. It's not. Daylight Savings. It's 942.

If you missed the show yesterday, we're on it all 10. clock on the morning. That's right. Yeah. It's an extra hour. Content. We've got to do some trial and error. Yeah. Some new segments. We'll do some trial and error. And today, an idea that we have are Fletchhorn and Haley's $100 question. Yeah. So basically, we'll

ask you a random question. You've got five seconds to answer it? Yeah, because no Googling, no AI, no person in the background helping you. You know it or you don't. You know it or you don't. Charlotte joins us. Good morning, Charlotte. Good morning. Okay, are you ready for Fletchhorn and Haley's $100 question?

Put out my fader. I'm going to play something with YouTube. And every time I play something off YouTube premium, I have to thank the Christensen family who invited to be part of their family plan. So lovely. Rather than sitting through a Wix ad, you're sitting through an ad for the Christensen family.

Charlotte, are you ready for... Fletchwan and Haley's $100 question? I'm ready. On the spot. Is this who wants to be a millionaire thing? Come on, man. Leave some... Don't show them how the sausages, man.

He worked hard over the break to try to put this all to... You didn't like make a whole new intro for this? No, no, not yet. You talked to the guy who came up with $10 suburb, you know? Wait, it ended. Yeah, well, it's just a little do. Go again. It's just a little snippy.

Sorry, Charlotte, it's trial week. Oh, Charlotte. Are you ready to play? Flecksure and Hayley's $100 question. One question. Five seconds, $100. Okay, now, Charlotte, as soon as Haley asks the question, I am going to start your timer,

Are you ready? Yes. What was the first product ever sold by Sony? Go. Like fish or sardines? Interesting concept. She's gone here of Japanese. You've gone west. Japanese country.

Sony and a lot of Japanese companies started trading and things completely different to what they ended up being famous for. This has been a fact of the day. It has been. Is the answer, fish or sardines, Charlotte? It is not. It was an electric rice cooker. Adjacent.

I'm sure one of those electric companies started in fish. They did, which one? Yeah, but Charlotte, it wasn't Sony. It might have been Kawasaki. Because Kawasaki make pianos and motorbikes, so why wouldn't they also have covered fish? Fish. Yeah.

Nintendo started doing cards, was it? I don't know. Terror cards, magic cards. Don't know. Playing cards? You don't know because it wasn't part of the question, was it? trial where, you know, I would have done more research on the question. Fletch is just doing some quick background.

I can't find anything. What Japanese company started. Oh, do that. Oh, you dicky. Did you know what Japanese are? Why put electric company? It has to be specific to the fish. Several major Japanese seafood companies began as fishing or fish selling operations.

Yeah, but that's seafood companies. Did you Google Japanese electronics companies? Come on, Charlotte. Get it on. We're having a rag on Flech. You can tell him as an editor if you want. Call him a piece of shit. Yeah, call him a piece of shit.

Shala. Shalda, call it a picture. No, no. Shalah, what have you got to say? The Runo Electric Company is a Japanese electronic company that started by specialised in fish-finding technology. No, they're not. She said salmon or fish.

Call him an idiot, Shalda. Oh, I get, Samsung. Samsung is often cited in similar trivia for starting as a dried fish trader. There it is. Samsung is a South Korean company, not Japanese. Call Kish. Almost racist.

Charlotte, actually, call Vy-Sherty-Sher. I'm going to call Charlotte a piece of shatter. You're the one who pushed for it to be Japanese. You did say Japanese, Vaughn. I was confused. Charlotte, unfortunately, how do we feel about this segment? I like how I just descended into chaos and all turned on each other for $100. I quite like it.

But unfortunately, Charlotte, you go home with nothing today. Thank you very much. Because don't say thank you. You have... You have lost. Which that should be tomorrow's segment. Call us whatever you want. Oh my God.

Oh, $100.ZM. You get to call each of us one thing. One thing. So it just calls up and go. a prick. And not tell us which for us. No, not one of us. Because I could easily leave not being, not being offended.

This would ruin Haley's Day. It would eat at my soul. Yeah, you'd go home and just remember it all the time. Charlotte, thank you for playing. Thank you very much. Have a wonderful day. I like the segment. And have a magical Christmas with Criscoes as well.

Charlotte, of course, named after the Charlotte Hornets, one of the NBA teams of the 90s. A very popular teal and purple uniform. That's right. Play ZM's Flashhorn and Haley. I was just scrolling on Instagram as I want to do. And then ZM Online, which is an Instagram I follow, it's the company we work for, has shared that Brooklyn Beckham breaks silence and speaks out about his parents.

I'm just going to push through this here. Georgia joins us. Go on the other one, Georgia. Go on the other one, that one's not working. You've got all but the one I'm using. Yeah, because we changed it over. Look, I don't know. This is actually our studio.

We don't come into yours. studio and say, oh, you my ex-a, they're how we want them. You avoid coming into my studio. I'm going to ask you about that actually. So, there's been rumours about Brooklyn Beckham and not getting on with his family for years in the marriage and the mum didn't like the thing. Was there some unfollowing as well?

Unfollowing in the wedding dress. All this kind of stuff. Well, here it is, spout out from Brooklyn on Instagram. This is multi-page as well. I have been silent. No, I'm not going to do a southern accent for a British man. Yeah, I would either, I think. I've been silent.

Do you reckon he sounds like his dad? I've been silent for years. Oh, I hope not. He grew up in LA, right? All right. Yeah, I've been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents in their team

have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about some of the lies that have been printed. I don't want to reconcile with my family at all. Oh, sorry, Zedems put a song on this. I wish you didn't. What's my feedback on time?

No, it was on the next one. Brian Clint's Beach Day Starter pack. That's okay. We come back. I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled. I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life. My entire life, my parents had controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts.

Family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into. Recently, I've seen with my own eyes, the lengths they'll go through to place countless lies in the media. Most of the expense of innocent people, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, to preserve their own facade. but I believe the truth comes out. My parents have been trying effortlessly, no endlessly, sorry, to ruin my relationship since before my wedding and it hasn't stopped. My mum cancelled making Nicola's dress in the 11th hour, despite how excited she was to wear her design,

forcing her to urgently find a new dress. Remember in the media, that was like, oh my God, Nicholas shunned Victoria. Apparently not. Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me to signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected da-da-da-da-da-da.

What? This is wild. They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because then the terms of the deal would be initiated. My hold-out affected the payday, and they've never treated me the same since. During the wedding planning, my mum went so far as to call me evil because Nicola and I chose to include my nanny Sandra and Nicola's nanny at our table

because they both didn't have husbands. The night before our wedding, members of my family told me that Nicola was not blood and not family. Well, good thing she's not blood. That's interesting. They don't marry someone that you're, um, closely related to any more. Yeah.

100 years ago, I reckon, all good. Yeah. They make him out funky now. Dada, dody, dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty, do. Enless attacks. My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song in front of our 500 wedding guests.

Mark Anthony called me to the stage. What did he sing? Mark Anthony, he had a stint with Jennifer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They had twins, didn't they? Call me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife, but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead. So weird.

She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I've never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life. My wife has been consistently disrespected by my family. In matter how hard we've tried to come together as one, my mum has repeatedly invited women from the past into our lives, from my past into our lives, in ways that were clearly intended to make us both uncomfortable. Despite all this, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. That's crazy, eh? My family values public promotion and endorsements above all ours.

Brand Beckham comes first. Family love is decided by how much you post on social media. It goes on. Oh my God, this is insane. Because that's pretty much the royal family to a lot of us, say. We've grown up. Yeah, for the beckons. The one time my wife asked for my mum's support was to save displaced dogs during the LA fires.

My mom refused. The narrative that my wife and I did a blah, no, no, no. What our life shaped by image, press, and manipulation. All we want is peace, privacy and happiness. for us and our future family. Wow. He is done. He's, yeah, wow.

It's all out there now. Wow. He's basically like Harry, in he? From, like actually Royal Harry. We actually have a clip, I think, a statement from David Beckham. Oh, my, I'm just trying to race me. He'd got to upset him. He went to speech lessons after that interview.

You know that. Wow, that's powerful. Well, it's a great. It's the actual statement there from. He got a spawn in there. I've got 90 sponsorships straight in there. Crazy drama. Play Zatims.

Fletch Vaughan and Haley.
