Starting point is 00:00:00 From the ZM Podcast Network. This is Fleshborne and Hayley's big pod. Thanks to Animate, making happy happen for pets. Play ZM's Fleshborne and Hayley. Thank you, Bryn. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fleshborne and Hayley Happy. This is confronting. Happy 1st of July. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:23 It's already July. How did that happen? Holy sch Already July. How did that happen? How did that happen? Honestly, thank God, good riddance. The sooner it's over, the better. What, this whole year? Yeah, we're on the second half, the home stretch. Yep. We're just gonna get through to Christmas.
Starting point is 00:00:38 Just gotta get through to Christmas. Just gotta get through to Christmas. Few things changing today. What's changing today, homie? Kiwi saver rules, job seeker rules, some ACC stuff. It's a big day. You're gonna be able to get The Doctor online. They're launching a new service.
Starting point is 00:00:57 176 days till Christmas. Something else happening today. The jabs. The weight loss jabs. The weight loss jabs are going to be available in New Zealand. Yeah. We're going to be covering this multiple times throughout the show. It's pretty massive news. Yeah, we're going to chat to Tammy, who's a listener, who's been on one of these weight
Starting point is 00:01:16 loss jabs. Yeah, because there's so much curiosity around them. And a lot of, I think, secrecy. A lot of people to pretend that they're not on them. Well, that's what we're going to deal with in the top of I think secrecy, a lot of people to pretend that they're not on them. Well that's what we're gonna deal with in the top six, the secrecy involved. I've got the top six things to say you've been doing, if you don't want to tell people you've been taking a weight loss jab. Because it's not for everybody and maybe it's not their business. Yeah. So I've got the top
Starting point is 00:01:39 six things you can say instead when people are like, wow you've lost some weight. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. It was I at the airport Sunday, flying back from Wellington. It was crankin' man. School holidays, everyone's on their way. Busy, busy. Trippin' around.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Well you might wanna book the seat ahead of time, and if you're gonna book, 11A might be the seat to book, because that is the seat of the single surviving passenger on that air and air flight. The guy who literally walked out of the plane and was just like hey. But I've heard this a bit because the thing is it's different with every aircraft. Like, Levenay, where he was sitting was the
Starting point is 00:02:22 first economy row by the emergency door, right? So that's why when it broke open at that spot, there was no one in front of him. Yep. And they say that, so it's three seats above the fort of the wing, and that part of the fuselage is particularly robust because of everything that it carries, everything that it holds. Because the wings are strapped on. The wings are strapped on, it's got the bulkhead, it's sort of this whole thing.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Because in other aircraft that could be a business seat or it could be a premium economy seat. Yeah or like on a New Zealand, like a regional flight or whatever, it's not that. But it basically is the first row, the exit row behind business. But those rows are already a premium with most airlines. I know, but they're getting more and more expensive because so many people are trying to book it. So the cost is rising and it's hard to get.
Starting point is 00:03:15 So already, you could pay like, if you're doing a big flight to Europe, say, tomorrow, say. Say tomorrow's right. Say tomorrow you're doing a big, you're doing a double flight to get to Europe yeah you'd pay you'd add on at least 400 bucks to secure that seat in an exit row yeah right I'm not adding that on no no because you're a fan you're a fan of the middle block of seats but being on the aisle. I'm not a fan of any of it. You know what I mean? Like it's a miserable time for a low to go. But as someone who is good at sleeping on flights
Starting point is 00:03:52 and I don't know why or how, I'm a terrible sleeper in my own bed. Yeah. I don't wanna, I hate being woken up by the people crammed in if I'm always aisle, gotta go aisle. Yeah. Because I need to pee. So if I'm on the window, I need to pee, I've got anxiety, I can't get, if I'm always aisle, gotta go aisle, because I need to pee. So if I'm on the window, I need to pee,
Starting point is 00:04:08 I've got anxiety, I can't get out, I'm trapped. You gotta go window, then you can sleep against the window. I know, but what if I need to pee and they're asleep? Who cares? Now I've got wheeze anxiety. Oh, right, okay. Whereas I've gone, and then you were like, interesting, I've gone middle bits, you've got your three,
Starting point is 00:04:23 your four, your three, so I go in the four on the aisle so that if someone next to me needs to pee and I'm asleep, they can go out the other side. But what if that other person on the other aisle was asleep? But I'm gonna have a real don't F with me face on. Yeah, and be taking up the whole sprawled situation. I'm gonna go like eye mask, headphones, blanket.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Like don't touch me. I'll make it known. Don't even talk to me, yeah, okay. I thought that was a good method. And if it's not a busy flight. Did you check to see if the 11A or the ILC was free? No I didn't. I will go down with this ship in the words of Dido.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I don't think you're gonna have any choice. I'm gonna stay with the fiddlers as it goes down. Titanic reference. Yeah. Yeah, right. Again, I don't think you're gonna have any choice. And the Titanic was different, it sunk slowly. If your plane goes down, I don't think the fiddlers
Starting point is 00:05:18 are gonna have time to get their violins out of the overhead. Somebody said to me yesterday, have a safe flight. It's like, well, I'm a pretty good pilot. Yeah. Have a safe flight. Out of my hands, I'm a pretty good pilot. Yeah. Have a safe flight. Out of my hands. I'm not flying the plane. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Yeah, it's not my, like, you know. I'll wear the seatbelt. If you're driving somewhere and someone says, drive safely, of course that's mostly in your hands. That's on me, mostly. My default is driving like a maniac until someone says, drive safe, and I said, you gotta buddy.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Oh, I know, I've seen you when no one blessed you with a drive safe. The worst is when someone says, flight, you say, you got it buddy. Oh I know, I've seen you when no one blessed you with a drive safe. The worst is when someone says flight, you know, have a great flight, like they're working at airport security and you say, you too. Play ZM's Fletchborne and Hayley. From the Fletchborne and Hayley group chat,
Starting point is 00:05:57 this is the top six. Ozempic, Mineria, Wagovi, Platuki, Monjaro, Zenevredava, most of those were made up three syllable words but Ozempic, adjacent, Ozempic is kind of like, it's a brand name, right? Yeah. Ozenpic. But all weight loss injections are kind of known as Ozenpic, like Sellotape. Yeah, totally.
Starting point is 00:06:32 It's sticky tape, but Sellotape's a brand. Glad wrap. So Ozenpic style weight loss drugs will be available on prescription and should be on pharmacy shelves from today. You know? Right, and then they'll give it to me because they wouldn't give me
Starting point is 00:06:46 pseudoephedrine, you said it. Wouldn't they? Why? Did you say, I didn't say the good stuff. I didn't say give me the good stuff. Because you left here saying, I'm gonna ask for the good stuff. I said, I'm on holiday in three days,
Starting point is 00:06:58 I need to knock this on the head. Can I have some of the stronger stuff? Oh, okay. Yeah. That just sounds like you're drug seeking to be honest. I was, do you know, I was in Chemist's Warehouse Show Spawn yesterday, getting my, the stuff that just makes the acne on my ass go away. I'm going to be honest with our listeners.
Starting point is 00:07:16 And I was there when you were messaging saying they wouldn't give it to you. And I was like, maybe I'll put my acting degree to good use and get you some. I didn't know because I didn't want it on my log. Yeah, it goes on your log. Yeah't want it on my log. If I need it. Yeah, it goes on your log. Yeah, it goes on your log.

Starting point is 00:07:38 Usually it's like 24 hours though. Yeah, no, it's six months. I've been eating raw chicken every other day just to keep it on the trough. You thought it was medium rare. Yeah. Was, no, it's six months. I've been eating raw chicken every other day just to keep it on the trough. You thought it was medium rare. Yeah. Was how you cook it. Yeah, after it's been sitting on the kitchen bench
Starting point is 00:07:51 for a few days in the sun. God, that would be hideous. Yeah. Number five on the list of the top six things you can say you're doing if you don't want to tell people you're on weight loss jabs, you can say you're breastfeeding. Oh yeah, that sucks away the weight.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Yeah, it really does. Does it? Yeah, man. I've never tried that. Oh, I know some friends who had babies that were just like I had breastfed for longer just because it was just great for the boy. Cause you'd burn so much energy. Creating the milk and giving the milk. Feeding the milk and everything. It doesn't work if you're a dude. Yeah. Could I do it? If I really pushed. You really put your mind to it. Ugh! Ah, number four on the list. Useless nipples. Of the time, not useless. Not useless, actually very fun. Not, my nipples serve no practical purpose, but.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Well, he's a nipple guy, we know this. I'm a nipple guy, quite the erogenous sign. Um, would you like to flinch a little bit? Yeah, no, carry on, yeah, carry on. There's a billy there. Yeah, that's why. Or his two moles. Yeah. They are more like mini moles.'s why. Or his two moles. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:45 They are more like mini moles. They are, big big moles or tiny nipples, no one knows. They're like third nipples, cause you know how the third nipple's never the full size. Yeah they're smaller. Your third and fourth nipple. Do they even grow hair around them really? Like any longer ones?
Starting point is 00:08:59 I mean there's chest hair but no. No specific nipple here. How embarrassing for you. It is yeah. Number four on the list. Four eyes and tiny nips that's who I work with. Four eyes and tiny nips. That's what I call you when I talk about you. Yeah that's fine. That's why my mum always asks how's old four eyes and tiny nips. You say good things mum. They're doing well. Number four on the list of the top 16's you can say you're doing if you don't want to tell people you're on weight loss jabs. You run now. Oh yeah, just a lot of running.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yeah. I run. I run now, I run. You've never run before. Well I do now. I haven't seen photos, cause a lot of people that run share it on socials. Yeah, you should add me on Strava.
Starting point is 00:09:34 If you're doing running, we could be running together. I'm on Strava. And post your time on Instagram stories every day. Yeah. You got it. Number three on the list of the top six things you can say you're doing if you don't want to tell people you're on weight loss jabs I mean you just tell them you start a pooping more. Oh, yeah. Okay get the poops out
Starting point is 00:09:50 Doesn't make you lose weight but it does because if you put and then your body's like I've got to make more poop It's like breastfeeding but wow Your body is like is it? I gotta make more poop. I gotta make more poop. I gotta make more poop number two on the list of the top six things You can say you're doing if you don't want to tell people you're on weight loss jabs, you can tell people you're doing meth instead. It's just so little meth.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Lovely little bit of meth related weight loss. You'd rather say I'm on meth than I'm on oisemper. Yeah, how embarrassing. But meth, you know, knock a tooth or two out, make it authentic. And number one on the list of the top six things you say you're doing now if you don't want to tell people you're on weight loss jabs, you can tell them you're dying.
Starting point is 00:10:26 That is today's top six. Well, thousands, thousands of Norwegians were accidentally told that they'd won Lotto. I've been to Norway, God, I love that place. Oh, it's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I'll tell you what, the men. Big, tall. Viking looking dude. Right up your alley. Far apart. I've worked a lot with the Norwegian Kingsguard. Right. Jesus. Just a moment. Well okay, well we're not talking about the Norwegian military. We're talking about the Norwegian lottery. lottery so much like Lotto in New Zealand yeah it's state run and there's an app and there are obviously prizes and several thousand people who won
Starting point is 00:11:12 prizes in the euro jackpot were notified of incorrect amounts. How wrong did they get it? So the amount that they had won was multiplied by a hundred instead of being divided by a hundred Because he's like a it's a euro lottery and then it's um Tram it's converted into Norwegian. Yeah, yeah Crona So one woman in the middle of a renovation project so you can imagine that's blown out and some tradie hasn't turned up for three Weeks because he started a new job. You could have stick to your budget on a Renault. I didn't blow out at all. Really?
Starting point is 00:11:47 Yeah, yeah, the price that I said I was gonna spend on the house is definitely what I spent. Not double. Not double? Not even? Not double. Double? Not double.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Well, one woman in the middle of a Renault project, she told the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation that she received a notification that she'd won 1.2 million krona. Oh no. But instead received only a fraction of that sum. Now that 1.2 million krona, if you remember our international ATM, is about 160 New Zealand, maybe 170,000.
Starting point is 00:12:19 So she hadn't won that, she won 10% of that. Yep, or a fraction of, yeah. She doesn't say exactly how much, but, so everybody that had won, I'm guessing a small prize, like a division five or six or four, whatever. Yeah, it was, it was times by a hundred. This is the thing with when you think money is coming, and then it's not, you feel like you've lost that money, it was never yours.
Starting point is 00:12:45 But I think the bad thing is that they have the alerts on the app as well. So all these people instantly, boom. So like a push alert, like you've won. Oh, near. Which I mean, they had won. But not nearly as much. But not as much as they thought they had.
Starting point is 00:12:59 So yeah, the whole thing is just a shambles. I won a couple of hundred bucks last year. It was pretty nifty. I felt quite, it was, that was very exciting. Yeah. I've never won, I've never won more than that. I don't even think I've ever won more than $100. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:13 It's always like, you've won $34. Oh yeah, absolutely. Cool. Cool. Next week's ticket. Yeah. What is it at the moment? It's five.
Starting point is 00:13:21 It's just not enough. No, I don't plan until it's the big ones. I love it, as if someone was to transfer five million dollars and it wouldn't change your life. We're like, oh god, I don't play for five million dollars this week. Tuppence. Play ZM's Fleshborne and Haley.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Play ZM's Fleshborne and Haley. Fleshborne and Haley, silly little po, silly little po. It is so silly, silly, silly, that the silly little poll, silly little poll, it is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little poll, silly little poll, silly little poll, silly little poll, silly little poll. Silly little poll is do you like being called out of the blue? No heads up. How are you available for a call for example? Or hey can I give you a quick call? Oh, far out that just like made my anxiety crazy. And do you answer a number you don't know? No. Yes. No! Oh see sometimes I don't. You have no business calling me. And then the other day there was a number and I was like I'm not answering this and then I was like maybe I should answer this and then I did and luckily it was my surgery being rescheduled. Yeah imagine if I hadn't
Starting point is 00:14:23 answered it. But now when they're leaving a voicemail it can live transcript it for you. That's amazing. That's really clever. So do you like being called out of the blue? 74% of people who replied said no. Wow okay. I like it when a friend texts and is like hey are you free for a call or catch up? That doesn't include us so I... No no no when you guys call I'm like here we go. Here we go. it's on. 26% of people then said yes, they do like being called out of the blue. Jack Willan says, if it's a family member, I can assume an aged parent has died. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:55 And I shall panic thusly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. If you get a mum, hey, can I give you a quick call? Or can you give me a quick call? I panic. Because usually she would just call. Okay, yep. Um, Trippity says, it makes me anxious and nervous.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Who are you and why are you calling me and what do you want? Mm-hmm. Yep. Dan, I've moved away from my friends and family so a call is always a fun way to catch up. Yes, yes, yes, but what about out of the blue? But you've gotta say, hey, do you wanna catch up and call this morning? You've gotta say. Hey, haven't talked for a while.
Starting point is 00:15:23 We should catch up on a call this afternoon. Yeah, that's good. That's relaxing. Yeah. That's not panic inducing. No, no panic. At all. Hannah said, no, but I also don't like a text saying,
Starting point is 00:15:35 are you free to call? That freaks me out. Maybe just don't ring me at all. Yeah, are you free to call is only bad news. Sounds like Hannah might like a voice note. Dare I say. Yes. Well, voice notes are definitely the best way to go. Voice notes are fantastic.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Elliot, on the phone 100% delighted to receive a phone call but call me on Teams unannounced and I would most likely throw myself out of a window. You call it unannounced work. Teams. Oh no, absolutely not. That's horrible. Ashley, yes, family in New Zealand and the UK,
Starting point is 00:16:02 it's hard to plan calls so easy to just give it a go and vice versa as we live in Australia. So everyone's on their time zones, you're just trying your luck. Catherine, childhood trauma when answering the phone unless I know who is calling, I won't answer. Same goes for my work phone. Work phone, not answering. If you've got a specific phone for your work and you don't know who's calling, that's not doing your job. That's pretty wild. Not answering your work phone's crazy. Yeah, I don't mind it, so I voted yes. If I don't wanna be called, I'll just put it on
Starting point is 00:16:29 do not disturb and deal with everything later. Wanna turn it off. Jack, me reaching my 30s, I've noticed the mates that I used to talk to every day slowly move away and we start doing our own thing, so a random call with a quick yarn goes a long way actually. I hate calls from the wife though. It usually means a pet is dead or a pet has escaped. So old mates, tick, wife, cross.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Or can you get some mints from the supermarket on the way home. Yeah. And Alana said my time is precious and I think it's selfish if people just call you meaning their time is more important than yours. Wow. Oh okay, wow that's quite a statement. That's a hot start. Hell of a start. Play ZM's Flashborn and Hayley. God Lord's cause controversy. Now you know on her, so the Virgin, her new album, the Virgin artwork is an x-ray of her pelvis. Yes. And a zip of her pants and something else and people can see the IUD. Gosh, she's on birth control. It's caused a lot of controversy because people were like, where did you get those x-rays
Starting point is 00:17:34 done? So it was actually quite difficult. Yeah, they really don't want you to take x-rays for just for fun. I had to go to a country. I've been told I'm not even allowed to say what country for some reason. Maybe this was quite illegal. But I think we took six total because they're so, it's not great to just take an x-ray of your pelvis.
Starting point is 00:18:00 But I just felt like it was the right portrait of me to be with this album. So I guess you can't just sort of go in right and... Because I mean you need a referral right? Yeah yeah yeah. That's why they always stand back behind the frame. And they leave the room. Yeah. Because it's not great.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Yeah to do multiple times. To do a lot if you don't necessarily need to, let alone having like other things and kind of making it a piece of art. Because once there's like, it's radiation right? Yeah. There's a level of radiation. Yeah. And they leave the room because they do it every day. Yeah. And they take a hundred of these things a day. Yes, you don't want to be in there getting little micro exposed. Yeah. But so she had to go to a different country to get this done. Okay. I mean we kind of know where she, she's always posting on social media, right?
Starting point is 00:18:46 Like would people be able to work this out? She's been in the States. It's gotta be some kind of loose ex-Soviet, you know, Eastern European. I'm thinking Eastern Europe. Oh wow. Some loose laws. Loose laws.
Starting point is 00:18:58 You know where it's a bit looser? I was thinking maybe like Thailand or something. Like Southeast Asia, yeah. Southeast Asia, loose as a goose. You know what I mean? You get the money, they'll just take it. If you went in and you're like, hey, I need to do this, I'm gonna wear that and do this.
Starting point is 00:19:09 I mean, I think it's a great way to start. Or America, yeah. You can get anything done for the right amount of money, right? Yeah, surely. What is the, oh, that's her belt buckle, got ya. I was like, what is that belt buckle in the fly over pants?
Starting point is 00:19:22 And then you see the IUD. And then the other piece of controversy is, you if you buy the vinyl there's a photo of her she's got see-through pants yeah we can see her pubes everyone's like why have you got your vagina out for the world to see and everyone was like that is not a vagina that is her Mondes pubes pubes Mondus. Mmm. It's pubies. Just some pubes. Yeah. Just some, uh, a bit of pubes. Good on her. I mean, I couldn't put my pubes on an album cover, but that's just me.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Geez, they wouldn't fit on an album cover. Yours. No. Pubes. It'd have to be an album, it'd have to be a record. It'd be a carpet, wouldn't it? Yeah, the whole thing. Yeah, the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Where does it start? Jesus. Yeah, where does it start? I don't know. Is there a doodle in there somewhere? Yeah. You can't see the doodle because it's covered by pubes. It's buried thick. Fletcher's pubes looks like one of those yards, backyards that you see on Facebook before the guy comes in with the whipper snipper. I was like hey I want to do this for free. There's an old car in there. Oh my gosh. Does it all in time-lapse. Abandoned boulders and all sorts. It's just a mess. And dark course here. Dark. Yeah, dark. You wouldn't expect it looking at you. The pubes on this man.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley. Well, the great debate returns today on the show. Mm-hmm. It's been a while. Great Debate. Well the Great Debate returns today on the show. It's been a while. We will debate the favourite section of the supermarket. I mean, oh god, I love going to the supermarket. Now before you pros and cons, your favourite bit of the supermarket, this comes to us from Australia. Australians have revealed their go-to aisle at the supermarket. Fruit and Veg. Boring.
Starting point is 00:21:11 I know but there's a lot to do. It's come out on top with almost one in five Aussies nominating it as their favourite. I will say the G&Z's voted for the confectionary aisle. Well they'll be regretting that when they have gingivitis. And by the time they do get to the older demographics, as voted the favourite vegetable aisle. Yeah. Man, I love hitting the fridges, you know, like dairy.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Oh yeah. Yogurts, cheeses, hams, and then there's always like a pizza base. But what about the frozen section? There's berries, there's ice cream. No, boring. The frozen section? There's berries. There's ice cream This is a bit boring. It's chicken though peas and carrots you love you What's that chicken? So the southern style? Do you know what I bought teagull? Do you know I got it the weekend? I don't know. This is a new thing. I've never seen this before it was called a
Starting point is 00:22:01 It was a loaded something and it reminded me of a lasagna topper. A loaded topper was what it was called. It's effectively a giant chicken nugget, but inside the chicken nugget coating with the chicken is potato and gravy. Oh. What? Are you eating? No, I didn't get it for the girls because it's school holidays
Starting point is 00:22:19 and they're just constantly like. Treats. Yeah, hungry, what can I do? And the air fryer's sitting right there waiting for it. Begging for it. Fun, that sounds hilarious. I haven't made one yet, but they've got friends coming over and air fries? They're waiting for a big and fun But they've got friends coming over today, so I reckon they're gonna get a hiding not the kids I'm not gonna give the kids If your children are some of the children coming to my house today, they will not they won't be smacked I mean, it's not the 80s if it was the 80s
Starting point is 00:22:43 But I reckon those nuggy loaded potato and gravy abominations are going to get a hiding in the air for I. I mean when you do think about what you should eat at supermarkets. Oh shut up, that's not the game we're playing. I like the produce department. Mostly to be, have a,
Starting point is 00:23:00 be a, my reaction is always abhorrent about how much things cost when they're out of season and how pathetic a Telegraph cucumber is at this time of the year, yet it's still $6. When in my mind, I know cucumbers don't grow this time of year, what a stupid expectation to even have cucumber at this time of year.
Starting point is 00:23:14 What about the International Isle? All the pastes. Oh, I love the International Isle. You know, there's always like the goops, your pace, your Indian section, your Pataks. Yup, love a Pataks. And then the Mexicans, they just pop off in their own little bit. I'm actually gonna write that down.
Starting point is 00:23:30 She said the Mexicans. The Mexicans? Haley? But the Mexicans, they put their stuff by the corn chips. You're like, what are you doing? You gotta get over an international. No, I think they need their own aisle because we- So we're saying international, but the Mexicans can go here. She said it again two times, might need to
Starting point is 00:23:52 see HR at the end of the show. I thought they were almost done with the international section in the supermarket. Yeah same, I don't need it. It's not the 1980s, we don't need to like freak people out by having the ethnic corner. But I do like that it's like your pastes and your goops and then you've got like your American Dr. Peppers, you know? Yeah, yeah. I miss you all Dr. Peppers in the whole supermarket. Your jolly ranchers.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Yeah, ridiculous. Yeah, no, I'm gonna go dairy with your soup goops and stuff. Oh, chilled soups. Your hams. Your nice soups. Your chorizo's. Okay, but what about the jelly with the hot chokes? You know, I love a hot choc. Oh my god, booze.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Wine. Sorry. You've forgotten about that aisle. Not every supermarket has it. Not in the West. Not in West Auckland. Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna go booze and a little ham and cheese. You can't get spirits at the supermarket.
Starting point is 00:24:37 No. Yeah, what's happening in the world, eh? America you can. Actually in Australia you can. Yeah. No, Australia, they've got the bottle stores are next to the supermarkets. No, some supermarkets. Really?
Starting point is 00:24:48 Different states. Yeah, in Sydney recently. Different states. Right, I like the produce department, I think it's colourful, I think it's. That would be your number one thing, would you agree with this study? I mean, it would be the one I use the most for sure.
Starting point is 00:25:02 I also get, I also get. You're a bickies, You're a bickies. I've been helping myself on the weekly shop. Yup. When I'm there, I just grab, cause now that in your produce department you have to use the brown paper bags. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:25:15 I don't use plastic anymore. What if I just grab a handful? These are so handy to have around the house. You can't just take them. You can't just take them. Handful. It's stealing. That's such a handy...
Starting point is 00:25:23 You've gotta have something in it. That's such a handy thing. Like at least put one mandarin in each bag. You're not free. I just grab a handful of them and fold them up and chuck them in the pocket. Oh my god, this is one. Oh my god. Very handy to have around the house,
Starting point is 00:25:34 the brown-haired bag. Thou art taking thy piss. Okay, now we put up a question box to aid with the great debate. And we asked you what your favourite, some rogue suggestions coming in from the listeners. Seasonal aisle. Like when you get in and it's Easter and there's a dump of eggs in the middle.
Starting point is 00:25:49 No, but they sprinkle those throughout the store. I wouldn't say there's a single aisle for that. Well, Christmas or Halloween things. Yeah. Or do you know what aisle I like? Why did you say Halloween? Kind Halloween. She said Halloween.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Halloween. Halloween. Halloween. Why are you saying hawa? I don't know. Halloween. Halloween. I are you saying Halloween? I don't know. Halloween. Halloween. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:26:08 I don't know. Okay, what about the aisle which is all the cleaning products and the um. Oh fuck. Yeah, toiletries. And the other stuff though, like maybe some fire starters, some um. Some sewing stuff. Some multi-pluss. Some shoe cleaning stuff.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Some hose attachments. Yes! That's a good aisle. And then behind it, cat food. But that aisle, you know if you went to a different store, it'd be half price. They'd get you on that. That aisle's an expensive aisle to be trapped in.
Starting point is 00:26:35 It's an entrapment of aisle. Yeah. But you're like, maybe I do need these socks. Tash said the breakfast aisle. Cereals at one end. Coffee. Breakfast stuff. Bars. It's got a good variety. Not my breakfast aisle. Cereals at one end. Coffee, breakfast stuff. Bars.
Starting point is 00:26:46 It's got a good variety. Not my favourite aisle. No, that's probably my least favourite actually. I'm in complete disagreement there. Cornicey condiment, the condiment aisle. Yeah! That's the sauces. Sources!
Starting point is 00:26:55 Sources of all sauces. Your Worcestershire, your sweet chilli. Sources. All the sauces. And that's where my goops are. The stir fry goops are in that aisle too. Oh, your Maggi packets. Your gravy packets.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Yeah. Definitely the chip aisle. Alice asks chips and snacks on one side and wine on the other, said Alice. Oh man. That's a great- Hey, they combine the wine and the chips. They should just call that the 5pm onwards aisle.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Yeah, they should. Chips and champagne. Lollies get lost for hours and they're in and end up spending hundreds of dollars on lollies. Yeah, you're allowed to, you're an adult. The Māori princess is the international aisle. Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Ah, Graham, bakery, hands down. Yeah, actually. Oh yeah, if it's a supermarket with a good bakery, like R.I.P., the New World that just burnt down, their work, that had a really good, some slices. Our bakery, our local Cume, you make mean sandwiches and rolls. Yep.
Starting point is 00:27:46 You always get the cheapest chips. No, that's deli. That's deli. That's deli. That's deli. That's deli. That's deli. You've put the deli when I said that before.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Get a hot chalk and some salad. Grace said the cleaning aisle always does it for her. Yeah, I reckon that's a good aisle. You always see things, you're like, man, I didn't even think of cleaning that. Yeah. Maybe I do need some damp red. that's a good eye on. That's a good eye on. Cause you always see things, you're like, man I didn't even think of cleaning that. Yeah, yeah. Maybe I do need some damp red. Someone said that the deli of the modern age will never compare to the deli of the 1990s.
Starting point is 00:28:13 No. They used to hand out slices of ham willy nilly. Willy nilly, now you're very lucky to get a free slice of luncheon, aren't you? Just not nearly the luncheon selection now as there was back then. Yeah. Okay, so was there a clear winner from?
Starting point is 00:28:27 Nah, there wasn't. No, it's everyone. Everyone's unique individuals. Okay. I just really feel like a trip to the supermarket. But I'm going away tomorrow. Really, you don't go every day? I don't know why I go to the supermarket.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Once a week. I love the supermarket. One big shop. I put my headphones in, peruse. Oh, I love the headphones in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Always set them out when you get to the end though. No.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Always set them out to talk to the checkout person. It's rude, yeah, it's rude. No. Always set them out to talk. I had the weekend. I'm checking myself out. Oh no, I get too much. You haven't used a checkout person since like.
Starting point is 00:28:55 I'm doing a big weirdly shop. 2019, yeah. 2019. So I'm gonna use a checkout person, they won't let me take my whole trolley through. She said, do you want the receipt? I said, yeah, better take that, put it over me, down the pokies.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Shit, she laughed. Oh wow pokies shit she laughed she laughed she laughed so hard it's like she dealt with someone with a gambling addiction recently in her life it was maybe too close to home yeah hit the bone okay play ZM's Fletchporn and Hayley play ZM's Fletchporn and Hayley well we put a call out on our socials to our listeners with complete curiosity basically if you have been on a weight loss drug like Ozempic or Monjaro or you know all the ones that we hear about all the time and we got a response from lovely Tammy who joins us on the phone.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Hello Tammy. Hi. Hi. As of today Wigovi which is one of these drugs, is available in New Zealand because it's been really hard to get here. And you took not Wigovie, was it Saxcinda? Yes, yeah, Saxcinda. How was it for you?
Starting point is 00:29:55 Because it's so new that we don't know if there's any side effects. We've all been watching it on basically TikTok and Reels and online. Celebrities, yeah. And yeah, we haven't, I guess a lot of Kiwis wouldn't have that any one they know first hand that's been through it. Yeah, but you have. Yeah, yeah, I loved it. It was, I was in it for about six months and I lost over 14kg.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Wow. Wow, okay. So you're not on it anymore? No, I came off about two months ago. And how was that processed? Because basically like, I sort of assumed that a lot of people were coming off it and then all the weight came back.
Starting point is 00:30:29 I've probably put on maybe like two or three kgs since, but I mean, I fluctuate quite a lot. So did you? Oh, you're joining the show of fluctuators. We know how to fluctuate. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Did it change your habits when you were on it so that carried through?
Starting point is 00:30:45 Yeah, my doctor suggested I stand up for about six months to kind of cement those habits in place. Did you have any bad side effects because you do hear of some horrible side effects? No, I didn't have any. I bruised like a peach, and so that was kind of my only, my thighs were just covered in bruises from the shots.
Starting point is 00:31:02 But that was it. Like now that you're not on it, how much can you eat? I can eat quite a lot again, but I generally don't because I feel fuller, faster. Because a whole lot of the stuff like this was what Oprah Winfrey was saying with those Zen pics. She was like, it blocks out that food noise. When you've got, when you're constantly thinking about food
Starting point is 00:31:20 and that's sort of always on your mind, did you have that experience that food became just less interesting? I'm a big foodie, so it was kind of hard to go to a restaurant and not order everything that I want. But I felt physically sick. I couldn't physically eat anything else. Would you even be able to order mains?
Starting point is 00:31:39 Probably wouldn't finish a main, no. Wow. Okay, because I had that experience with a friend in LA where there's a bunch of us eating and he hardly ate anything. And I knew that he had been on Ozympoch on one of those. And yeah, he just laughed. He said, oh, this is just in LA,
Starting point is 00:31:54 like no one's buying a lot of food at the restaurants. Do you, and I say this with complete curiosity, I'm not judging at all, Tammy, but do you feel like long-term, this is how you want to eat just on such a low calorie diet? I think it's okay to have balance and have a blowout once in a while but for the most part I really prefer to eat less, not feel so full and gross after. Because like you say like being a foodie that would be my one concern is just it just puts you off all
Starting point is 00:32:24 the food. Yeah. And that isn't that like one of the biggest joys in life is like going out into a restaurant, your favourite restaurant and ordering it all. Yeah. Yeah, that was hard, but I kind of just would have a bite of everything and then kind of be done with it.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Did you team it up with some exercise or? Lots of reforma platies and one of the German stuff as well. Reforma platates is expensive I really want to get into it, but I just can't afford both the German and the reforma pilates. Well, 16 does not cheap either. No. It's a commitment. Because a lot of people have talked about not only the fact that it makes you eat less, but it also rewires your brain and maybe you don't have those other compulsions when it comes to like gambling or other Smoking or drinking
Starting point is 00:33:07 Smoking or any kind of addiction. Did you find other things that kind of it was dulled, dulled that kind of sensation? Yeah, absolutely. It has similar anti anxiety and anti depression drugs in it. Anxiety was at an all time low. My ADHD was way better. I was way more focused. It's like a little mega cocktail. It is a little cocktail. It's a 2025 cocktail of everybody's main five problems. Yeah, yeah. Compulsion, anxiety, not being able to concentrate,
Starting point is 00:33:36 and weight loss. Cause yeah, what about alcohol? Cause that was another one of the compulsions people talked about that, yeah, like they didn't even feel like drinking. Couldn't drink beer anymore, it made me really bloated. Hangovers were way worse. I bet.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Because I've been a crash, I'm not calling this a crash diet because it's a totally different world, but I've been a crash dieter since I was like a teenager. And I feel like in the last few years, I've learned a lot more about like, why women need a higher amount of calories than we restrict ourselves to often
Starting point is 00:34:07 to have a quote unquote, I'm not a doctor, healthy body, a body that menstruates and is healthy and happy. Is there like, are you concerned about the long-term effects of that? Not really. Do you have like lower energy? I did in the beginning, but that's because I wasn't eating.
Starting point is 00:34:25 But other than that, everything was normal. I just was losing weight. It's just so fascinating to me. It is, yeah. It is, because there's so many like, do you read a lot online about the potential long-term effects? Yeah, there's so much misinformation
Starting point is 00:34:39 and unfortunately in New Zealand, there's so much called Poppy Syndrome about, oh, you know, do it the old fashioned way, blah, blah blah blah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, everyone calls it the easy route, which a lot of people have said it's not at all, so it's got its own challenges. No, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:34:51 But everyone else, you know, vapes and does their own thing. The person vaping while they're giving you a health lecture. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's hard to take, isn't it? Yeah, me asking you if you're concerned about the long-term effects of your way host drug when I had lots of tequila over the weekends, pretty hypocritical. Yeah, I mean, before you did it, did you just jump into it or did you do like a bit of research yourself online? Before I started, I had had surgery and the recovery was really rough and I couldn't exercise and I
Starting point is 00:35:21 couldn't do anything and I basically just spent a bomb getting my pre-baby body back. And I felt like I was kind of wasting it. Yeah. Sitting around doing nothing. So I spoke to my doctor and that's why she prescribed it to me. Wow. Okay. And then when you came off it, did you wean off or just stop?
Starting point is 00:35:37 No, so you wean on, you do like five mil a week, like every day for a week. And then you go up, but then you just stop. Well the injections ouchy, do you get nervous? Yeah, cause you gotta inject yourself, don't you? Yes. That's a no from me. Yeah, it took me a really long time. Yeah, you get all nervous.
Starting point is 00:35:56 I used to do pin print things and I used to be like. Yeah, I mean, apparently they're working on a pill for exactly that reason, cause you know, nobody wants to be injecting themselves. I will say, I did read, audio books is reading, a fascinating book called Magic Pill by Johann Hari, who's written, also wrote Stolen Focus, another great book, and he went on Ozempic,
Starting point is 00:36:16 and basically detailed and talks to all these amazing scientists and researchers about it. So if you were gonna jump in, read that or listen to the audio book because yeah, it's certainly something you wanna do before you just start taking something. Yeah, thank you Tammy. It's just interesting to talk to a Kiwi
Starting point is 00:36:36 who can just share the honest review of it. And for you it was a really positive experience. Yeah, absolutely. And certainly something that people are gonna be talking about now that it's available today in New Zealand. Yeah I get it. Well Tammy, best of luck and thank you so much. Please ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Just a little bit more on, because we caught it with Tammy who's taken this weight loss drug. I just opened the text machine and there are
Starting point is 00:37:00 some other perspectives shall we say. So maybe you know you got to do your research like we say. Someone said that they lost 40 kgs and you're like, oh, congrats. They got pancreatitis. Ended up in hospital for two weeks and they're now insulin dependent. Oh wow, okay, so yeah. So you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Two sides of the story. Now, yesterday I was at the pub with my bestie Jess and having a pint. Yep. Catching up and suddenly she just goes, we've got to go. Okay, why? We've got to go. Finish your drink, we've got to go.
Starting point is 00:37:29 No, we've got to go. And she just stands up, grabs her bag. She's like, come on. I was like, what's happened? Has, you know, does she have beef with someone? Yeah. And there's about to be a brawl, unlikely. Then when we got out, I was like, what happened?
Starting point is 00:37:41 She was like, that man would not stop sniffing. Oh. And then I was like, what happened? She was like, that man would not stop sniffing. Oh. Oh. And then I was like, oh. Once you hear it, you can't, I'm here. Wait, was there another table to move to? It was a full evacuate. It had just ground her down.
Starting point is 00:37:56 I've had one of those on the plane, but then I also know I'm probably guilty of doing that if I don't have a tissue. I could see her getting irritated, but then I also know I'm probably guilty of doing that if I don't have a tissue. I could see her getting irritated, but I didn't know what it was about. This kind of like, you know, she was on edge, just getting like, hh, hh, hh, hh, hh.
Starting point is 00:38:14 And I was like, I was noticing it, but not as bad. And she was like, that sound drives me absolutely mad. Like wore her down. And I was like, I remember this. My mum used to have a, was a. Oh, there's a, we've got a bad family habit, the old, we give it a couple of those. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Sometimes you need to have a clear before you say something. I went with mum and dad over a weekend down to Taranaki a little while ago. She, mum was doing it in the back of the car and you could just see her when she did her dad was like, they've been married for something. And so when we went to show sponsor Chemist's Warehouse, I got her a throat spray.
Starting point is 00:38:52 I said, you want to try one of these? Just give it. And I tell you what, it worked. Happy, happy, everybody's happy. Mum's not got the tickly throat, dad's not even put up with it. Whereas you're on the throat spray? Me. Yeah. I just love it. Whereas you're on the throat spray? Me, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:05 I just love it. It's working, isn't it? So you sound so, so clear. This is what happens when you use throat spray every day for a year, which is not what- No, that's not true. That's not true, I don't. Unless I've got a tickle.
Starting point is 00:39:16 When you actually need it, it doesn't work. No, that's not true. But I was like, we all have those sounds that absolutely drive you mad. And that's what I wanna ask our listeners today. What is a sound that drives you insane? Mine would be a buzzing. Like if you're in a hotel and there's a power pole
Starting point is 00:39:36 or a sign, it's a neeeee. I'm like, oh. That's why you sleep. I sleep with the earplugs. Do you know what mine is? Is a, A drip. Like a drip or like a mystery tick.
Starting point is 00:39:48 That's not like... Yeah. Tick, tick, tick. Like a creek. I've been in hotels where there's been a drip from the shower. Like you have a shower and it won't stop dripping and you're just like... You're like looking around the room being like, where is it? Where is it? Where is it? An unknown noise.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Same noise but a different time. There will be people that put up with their partners annoying noises as well, like chewing or... Especially when you're in a grumpy with them. So many coming in. Oh my god, foot tapping! Oh my god, me on the plane, I sat next to a chronic foot tapper. I was nearly, I'd nearly opened the door. Well you wanted to say something but then you were like it might have been a physical And I didn't want to be like can you hi, can you not?
Starting point is 00:40:28 Can you not shake the leg because it's shaking the whole row and then imagine if he was like I actually have you know Parkinson's and I'll be like well, I'll just see myself out and then open the door Jump with no parachute at 30,000 feet. Oh my god. I think I need a vent. Okay Oh 800 dials at Emma's the number can vent now, you can text her as well, 9696. What sound drives you crazy? Right now though, Jesus, we are inundated with the noises that drive you insane. We had to leave the pub yesterday because a man was sniffing near my best friend. She was like, I can't deal.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Go, finish your beer, we're going, we're going. Absolutely drove her mad. There are so many messages. It's like, where do you even start? Flies. Couldn't agree more. Really? Flies. Big fat blow flies when they're like, ehh.
Starting point is 00:41:12 And then you've gotta get it. I chase it around the house with a tea towel. Yep. Oh, you wanna kill them instantly, eh? Because then they'd spin. Yeah. That's the ick. When they get the fly spray machine
Starting point is 00:41:22 and you're hanging around. Oh, yuck. Yeah, and she said, flies buzzing can't deal. Even worse When they get the fly spray machine and you're hanging around. Oh, yum. Yeah, and she said, "'Fly buzzing can't deal. "'Even worse when they die from fly spraying "'and they're break dancing in his perfect circle "'in the kitchen.'" Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:32 My husband has Tourette's. One of his everyday tics is a fast inhale, exhale through his nose. Man, it grates me. All I can think about is boogers flying out. But I don't say anything because he can't help it and it's a minor tick compared to some of the more painful ones for him. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Taylor, what is the noise that you can't stand? I absolutely cannot stand the sound of someone touching styrofoam. Oh, you get it. Oh, yeah. It's a very unique sound, isn't it? Squeaky tight. What about, I mean, it's not really
Starting point is 00:42:04 nails on a chalkboard or a knife that grates a plate. Oh, that's the pit. So when you're just trying to eat dinner and it goes, ah, you're like, ah. Styrofoam. It's the worst. It's the worst. It's like a real phobia, Taylor. Like a lot of people just like absolutely, ah. I can't stand it. I can't touch it without feeling like I'm going to vomit. What if you get a package and it's got the Styrofoam like beans in it or like you get a new TV and you have to take the Styrofoam out? Oh my boyfriend does it, I can't.
Starting point is 00:42:35 You take it. What if the person that invented Styrofoam was like, wow, what an invention. Taylor, thank you. Some messages, more messages? Every day, oh this is like us, every day at 3pm my workmate eats an apple in the office and I literally have to leave the room. Yeah, that's all we eat, an apple together, don't we? Yeah, we eat together. Sometime between 8, 8.30, it's after 8.30, every single time Hayley will say, late with the apple today. You had an apple before and you were crunching it very loudly.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Yeah, rule on it. It doesn't bother me. It doesn't bother me, no. I just think, look at my friend enjoying a big juicy apple. He's worked hard and he deserves an apple. Yeah. Chippy packets rustling or keyboard tapping is definitely up there, but I could write a book
Starting point is 00:43:20 on the sounds that annoy me. Well, it doesn't sound like you should be working in an office. No, it doesn't sound like it does. Or you should be one of those headphone people in an office. Oh yeah. My dad rubs his crusty feet together and it's so foul. Apparently it's called cricketing and it's a trauma response. What is that?
Starting point is 00:43:36 I saw that this week too. Cricketing. Yeah. So rub it, if people rub their feet together. Cricket. If they rub their feet together it is, it's like a trauma response. It's a well-known, well-documented... But he's got cracked heels.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Yeah, but old mates have always got cracked, dry heels. I remember when satin sheets were a thing, and you'd get in and it'd be like... Every third of dry skin you'd ever had would find that satin sheet. Ugh! Um... Oh my god, there's so many of them. Anytime someone's using a dry... this is making me feel unwell.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Anytime someone's using a dry paper towel, scrunching it up after they've eaten, it drives me crazy. It gives me goosebumps. It makes me feel nauseous. Really? Okay. Someone said that, oh my god, that... That...
Starting point is 00:44:19 They said it's not a snuff, it's a deep snort. When you're trying to clear your... Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you get the boogers out so you can spit it out. You can spit it out. I move time, make body, no time. But that's the thing, you know a spit's coming too. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Even when I spit afterwards, I'm so repulsed by myself, I spit. I'm like, oh my god, you filthy animal. Oh yeah, I'll do it when no one's around. Put me down. The missus slurps her drinks. I snapped the other day and asked if she wanted it tipped down Don't slip yeah Clicking pins. I said I've never minded clicking pin, but that's cuz I am If you're not a pin click it can stop
Starting point is 00:45:04 Yeah, if you're not a pen clicker it can drive you crazy. Stop it. Stop it. Someone said keyboard tapping on phones. So I thought... Oh yeah, when people leave the sound on. But my kids and their friends all leave it on. And because it's not like the other people that leave it on are the older people that type like this. Yep.
Starting point is 00:45:19 Hmm. Indy's like... Yeah, tell them to turn it off. I said what are you going to do? You should ground them. Do you think I should? I think, yeah, ground tell them to turn it off. I said what are you gonna do? You should ground them. Do you think I should? I think, yeah, ground them until they turn it off. Yeah, windscreen wipers when it's dry.

You stop calling them things though, people. Oh, for one. Excuse me, I've got a lot of vacuuming to do today. Yeah, he's got to vacuum the whole flat. I've got to vacuum my whole apartment. That's a big job. How long does it take you to vacuum your...
Starting point is 00:47:30 I've got to do all the edges. Guys, you're doing it right and I appreciate that. I do it right. You're not doing a bullshit vacuum. No, I'm not doing a... He's doing a proper vacuum. I've been bullshit vacuuming for the last couple of months. It's dusty in there, man.
Starting point is 00:47:41 What are you doing? You're getting the scooting boards. I'm getting the special thing out. Oh yeah, my man. The attachment. So he doesn't have five minutes. Yeah, this guy doesn't muck around. I don't have five minutes.
Starting point is 00:47:49 You've got five minutes, it's gonna make you feel better. Okay, go. End your workout with a funky walk on the treadmill. Oh, what? A funky walk. A funky walk. A funky walk. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:48:00 Everybody's funky walk's different. I don't even use the treadmill. Do the treadmill. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Joe, why the hell do you want a funky walk? You've just finished your workout. Yeah, yeah. And then you put it down to speed, you're on a four. Four, I'm a five kilometre,
Starting point is 00:48:12 five and a half kilometre an hour funky walker. Okay. And just say whatever you want, I don't know, I gotta be, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, put it on a song that you like. What's that what you do? And do a funky walk. Joe, why are you doing that?
Starting point is 00:48:21 And do a funky walk, it makes me feel better. Also, he goes to a gym that no one goes to. Like you couldn't do that at our gym. You could not do that at Les Mills. You get your membership revoked. What for a funky walk? You've got to be hot to be at Les Mills. Well, hot people don't do funky walks.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Hot people do hot walks. You can do a hot walk. People can do hot walks, not, but you're suggesting a funky walk. Well, I can't do a hot walk. I have to do a funky walk. Cause if I tried to do a hot walk, it would be silly. Show us your hot walk.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Producers, do you think this is a hot walk or a funky walk? Absolutely. Are you on board for a funky walk? Yeah, the girlies love this, we do it all the time. Yeah, a little strut. I thought you were asking if I thought that what Vaughn was doing was a hot walk
Starting point is 00:49:02 and I was like, I don't want to go to HR. Yeah, no, fair play. I got my HR. I'm happy to say it's not a hot walk and I was like, I don't want to get HR. Yeah, no, fair enough. I got my HR. I'm happy to say it's not a hot walk. This is stupid, why are you doing this? No, there's some great playlists online and basically how these playlists work is they tell you the starting speed.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Most of them start at 5Ks an hour and then every song goes up 100. Yeah, but people aren't running. And I don't want to be there running. No, but they're walking on the treadmill to music. They're not doing this. Put on your favourite song and do a sexy walk. Do the walk that makes you feel good.
Starting point is 00:49:28 If it's a sexy, if you need to feel confident, you strut it, if you need to feel a bit more funky, you do a funky walk. I support this one. You can do whatever, it's five minutes, it's at the end of it and you know it's a big like. No, I'm at the gym to look hot. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:49:41 Yeah, and we'll do a hot walk. Yeah. Strut it out. I will strut, I don't do it on the treadmill. I strut around when I'm picking up my weights and I'm trying to get a bit of attention. Yeah. Imagine doing that walk for five continuous minutes. How long does it take you to strut over your weight? I don't think it looks as good as you think it does. No, I'm under no impression it looks good but it makes me feel better. The number one way to look hot is to feel hot and listen to Vaughan.
Starting point is 00:50:05 He is feeling good. Get behind this man. Yes, strut it out. There's Mel Robbins out there. We're real Robbins. Very motivational. Tony Robbins. Tony Robbins.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Who's the one that's like let them? That's Mel Robbins. She's Robbins too. The Robbins have really got it. You're the one who's been listening to her podcast. I thought her name was Brene Brown. She's won as well, isn't she? You couldn't be further from it.
Starting point is 00:50:30 No, you're right. Play ZM's Flesh, Born and Haley. Play ZM's Flesh, Born and Haley. I was reading a great article on the New York Times about snooping on people's phones like strangers. You know when you see someone on their phone and they're having a little click away? I'm looking man, what are we swiping, what are we typing?
Starting point is 00:50:52 If I'm on a plane or on the bus and someone's got their phone out, I'm having a look. Well I can't go into detail, but if you are a podcast listener, I have shared this that I recently was on a flight and sat next to a woman who was typing some very explicit words about certain services and prices that she provides for enjoyment. And I was like, ah! But I couldn't look away. It was juicy, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:22 I know. So everyone, and then you can get those screen protector things, which I've been thinking about, you know, because we're on a flight soon. I don't like those. I feel like you pay so much for a phone these days to have an amazing screen and amazing camera. And then you're not perfectly straight on exactly the angle. It's like you can't see a damn thing. But I like, you know, sometimes I am exchanging money
Starting point is 00:51:46 on my phone and you sort of open up your bank account and people- Oh, marvellous. Oh, well it's all just, it's all a negative. So I'm transferring negative to negative, you know. Oh, boring, that's my, that's how I do it too. But anyway, according to some research that was out of university in America, doesn't matter which one.
Starting point is 00:52:06 So many people admitted to doing this, looking over the shoulder, anytime you see a photo pulled out. We love a goth, we love the goth. I wanna know from our listeners this morning, what did you see while you were snooping on someone's phone? And I think more like sort of peering over
Starting point is 00:52:20 rather than like I went into my boyfriend's phone. Do you know what I remember, and I think ages ago I talked about this. There was, I'm assuming she was a divorce lawyer on a flight next to me. And she was highlighting, she'd printed out from some boyfriend's Facebook page and Instagram, all these posts.
Starting point is 00:52:39 And she was highlighting during the whole flight from Wellington to Auckland, all these like things that the boyfriend had posted on his social media Which was I'm guessing all evidence in something. Oh gosh. Yeah, and and I was just like Oh my god, and I was like totally side-eyeing like pretending. I was watching a show Oh my god yeah you sort of do that eh That's where you wear your sunglasses on you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah Pretend to be asleep. Yeah, I was like, oh my God, she's like highlighting things. We have brilliant messages already.
Starting point is 00:53:09 Well, this is exactly what we wanna know. 0800 DARS. Can I read one? Okay, okay. It's really sweet. Whereas I was at the airport leaving Fiji, and there were a group of nuns sitting waiting. As I walked past, I saw that one of the nuns
Starting point is 00:53:22 had a screensaver of Jesus, and it warmed my heart. Okay, why was it, it's been something a bit juicier. Oh, because there's juice. As I walked past I saw that one of the nuns had a screensaver of Jesus and it warmed my heart. Okay, why was it something a bit juicy? Oh, because there's juice. Okay, what Jesus does she have though? Historically accurate Jesus or sexy white Jesus? Sexy white Jesus. Right. On the cross looking all ripped.
Starting point is 00:53:37 Yep. Holy moly, this is amazing. Okay, 0800 Dalsadem is the number you can text through. 9696. Just some studio technical difficulties. We had a frozen desk. Now what mic are you on? That's not working.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Is this one not on? Try this one. You want it go again? Was that, was that? Yeah, there we go. There we go. B.Y.O. my king. Yep, you're just gonna plug in there are you hon?
Starting point is 00:54:01 Real different energy in here. Yeah, this is, we're in Georgia student. No, she uses different plugs. You're gonna have plug in there are you hon? Real different energy in here. Yeah, this is where in Georgia's student, no she uses different plugs. Oh hon this one's working, you gotta use the little stick. Use the little stick there. I'm using a little stick. That's bearing with us during these tough times. Can you open up your text and show us? Shines don't go that loud. How does Georgia do that?
Starting point is 00:54:23 I don't know. Is she not as deaf as me? How does she survive? Well, we are talking about now the things you've snooped on people's phones. Some great messages coming in. Yeah, I'm just gonna have to unlock my laptop. I had to come in as a carrier. I sort of abandoned when we said we were gonna move in here.
Starting point is 00:54:36 I did notice that. That's just because you're unprofessional. I just, I'm just new. Oh, I pop on this microphone telling her I have to really work on my microphone technique to talk across this little stick. Micah, do apologize for any poor thing. Or do you want to swap seats because you're reading some text and I'm just sitting here
Starting point is 00:54:48 without a laptop? No, I'm going to adjust and adapt as the professional broadcaster I am. A man in the aisle next to me on a flight was watching a movie on his laptop which featured some very graphic homosexual sex scenes. I watched Brokeback Mountain on the plane. Yeah. I enjoyed every single of it. No, but the plane they would have edited it. Yeah, I didn't see the actual thing going on.
Starting point is 00:55:09 The problem was that he was... I don't think you saw that on the actual movie either, Hayley. I've seen a version of it. Oh really? Yeah. It was set only two rows in front of the toilet queue. You're going to have to swap. Am I popping too much?
Starting point is 00:55:24 We're just swapping mics now because Vaughan's on it. We're doing the heavy lifting of the toilet queue. You're gonna have to swap. Am I popping too much? Yeah, that's too much. Well, we're just swapping mics now, cause Vaughan's on it. Well, you're doing the heavy lifting of the talker. Yeah, that's a better mic, better mic. Yeah, okay, there we go. Great. And he was sitting just in front of the toilet queue, an 11 year old boy was lining up,
Starting point is 00:55:37 and having a good old look, see at the man's laptop screen, see what he was watching. Oh, having a look? Cause I BYO device a lot on planes, and sometimes you watch a movie, and I'll just plus 10. I'll just be like plus 10, plus 10, if there's a naughty scene.
Starting point is 00:55:49 Oh really? Because I get a bit, I don't know, it's a bit weird. I ask for a blanket and they make a tent. Yes, which is definitely not creepy. And then they take it down with the naughty scene finishes. And then the blanket starts moving and you get escorted off the plane.
Starting point is 00:56:00 I saw someone message in saying they saw someone creating, editing their OnlyFans content on a laptop. What? No! On a laptop. My boyfriend was lying on the couch one night, we were watching a movie. I was sitting facing the screen, it was dark, but I don't think he realised that he held his phone up. I could see the reflection perfectly in the glass French door behind him.
Starting point is 00:56:23 By the way, do you know what the French call French doors? Doors. Window doors. Oh, okay. There's a word and it literally translates to doors. Okay, interesting. Miss Hounder, I found out he was cheating on me, talking to another girl about how dumb the movie was
Starting point is 00:56:36 that we were watching. This woman must have an equal vision. Yeah. To see the reflection. I grabbed his phone to see his reaction and it confirmed it. He cried, I laughed. See you later, little boy. See you later, little boy.
Starting point is 00:56:45 See you later, little boy. Roberta messaged in, this is the girl that we talked to last week that didn't know what cricket wickets were. Remember her? Yes, yes, I remember, yeah. I was at the gym and there was a guy sitting in front of me on the treadmill area. In front of me, I was in the treadmill area.
Starting point is 00:57:00 He was on the massage chairs and I panned across and saw that he was watching, it rhymes with Horn Pub. Horn Pub at the gym. On his phone and I hit the lady next to me and gestured to look over there and she did in disgust and then threw her water bottle at him. Really? I'm like that's inappropriate and things really popped off. At the gym that's insane.
Starting point is 00:57:24 I know. I'm just going to say it feels like any time, an any time fitness thing. It's giving big, any time city fitting. We don't have massage chairs at any time fitness. Massage chairs? It's giving big. Treadmill area?
Starting point is 00:57:38 It's giving big and independent gym energy. My now ex-boyfriend's mum texting another man. And they snooped on their phone and saw it. Imagine looking over and being like, Denise? And you know Denise has probably got big font. Boomers love a big font. Or that, the woman that I saw on the plane, man she had whopping font. There's so many good messages.
Starting point is 00:57:58 I saw the filthiest messages by an old lady, an older lady sitting next to me on a flight from Melbourne. Air New Zealand business class seating arrangement is not private. Jesus. Couldn't help just turn my head and watch the entire thing unfold. I love all the filthy sexting by older ladies. I just love it. One time on a flight from the UK, it was such a long flight, my mother and I saw someone writing a very sexy story about Santa on her laptop the whole trip.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Santa! Yeah, a little bit of Santa-rotica there. That's sacrilege. We don't do that to Santa. Not to Santa. Did you see that? Go on. I was walking down the aisle of a plane.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Did you read that? No. And a guy was swiping photos of him being given jobs. Oh, well it's important to keep busy. And if someone's gonna hand out some jobs, you do your jobs. Yeah, no exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do jobs, a little bit of money maybe.
Starting point is 00:58:45 You gotta blow the leaves away in autumn. Yeah, yeah. So many, some can't be read for. Yeah, there's so many. Yeah, there's a lot of on the fly isn't there. And the Dixie Chicks concert, I think they just call the chicks now. Yeah. Then they drop the Dixie.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Why? Why'd they drop the Dixie? The connotations to the current... Racism. Yeah. The colonisation. current... Racism. Yeah. Colonisation. Yeah. Slavery and all that.
Starting point is 00:59:08 I was sitting behind this lady... Slavery and all that! ...with her friends, with her girls, and so she was there with her daughters sending up some rather erotic messages and photos to her. Oh really? Wow. And then quickly left. She did that thing before the concert finished, we better beat the traffic, but you could
Starting point is 00:59:24 tell she was just Gagging to get out of there. That's why. Play ZM's Fletch, Fawn and Hayley.

Okay. Over a hundred years ago the great molasses flood. Have either of you heard of the molasses flood? No. No, never. Yummy molasses though. 12? Is that like golden syrup? No. Thicker, darker. It's not as nice. It's a treacle. It's way... No, it's yuck. Bitterer.
Starting point is 01:00:26 Yeah. It's a byproduct and stuff, but yeah, like dark, like a real whack. Like tar. Around 12.30pm, a massive steel tank with 8.7 million litres of molasses burst at the Distilling Company, and a 6.4 meter wave of thick hot molasses surged through the streets at 56 kilometers an hour. What? 56 kilometers that? That's far! They worked out. That hits you at 56 kilometers. You know about it. You know about it. They worked out. They worked out how far it traveled and what time and they're like yeah it was
Starting point is 01:01:01 up to 56 K's an hour at one stage. Now producer Shannon's telling me this is how brown sugar's made molasses. That's it. Yeah. Go on. You just mix white sugar with molasses to make brown sugar and it's a lot cheaper and quicker. But I thought brown sugar was just not bleached. No, it's not.
Starting point is 01:01:19 No, no, no, that's cane sugar. That's cane sugar. Yeah, yeah. Because brown sugar has a delicious taste, doesn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not- You're not, I's cane sugar. That's cane sugar. Yeah, yeah. Brown sugar has a delicious taste, doesn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not... You're not, I just googled. Good for caramelized things. Wait, so it is, she is right.
Starting point is 01:01:32 Shannon's right. It's soft brown sugar, because raw sugar is unrefined white sugar. Soft brown sugar. Soft brown sugar is sugar with molasses added. I started to put on poetry. Can I have a medal for being right for the first time in a while?
Starting point is 01:01:43 Which is weird, because molasses is a by-product. I've just lost you, I don't know if Mike's not working. No, but I'm giving you a thumbs up. Thanks. Do you want a pat on the head? Wait, what's a real? Molasses is a by-product of making sugar, so they're taking a by-product of making sugar,
Starting point is 01:01:56 adding it back to the sugar, and getting a completely different product. God, they're smart, aren't they? Because brown sugar. They don't waste anything. Brown sugar is the best sugar. We're gonna come back to brown sugar in a bit, actually. Brown sugar's my favourite, I think. Oh, brown sugar. Overly brown sugar, the best sugar. We're gonna come back to brown sugar in a bit actually. Brown sugar's my favorite, I think.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Over white sugar. Over white sugar. Yeah. Everything's a little bit better when it's brown. Have you had a dirty, like they call it a muddy mojito? Yeah. That's brown sugar. It's dark rum.
Starting point is 01:02:19 It's delicious. Yeah. And it's a fight with your missus at the end of the night. Yeah, rum turns me. Rum turns me eh. It turns everyone feral. God it just turns me. Rum just hits different. It does eh.
Starting point is 01:02:31 That's why we don't drink rum no more. We don't drink rum. We don't drink rum no more. That's why my dad had to pick me up. So 21 people were killed in the Great Malacis flood. Now we've been laughing and having fun and you've just dropped that bomb on us. 150 people were injured, horses drowned in the syrup. Oh!
Starting point is 01:02:51 Buildings were moved off their foundations. Wait, do you think the horse was caramelised? I mean, do you know what I mean? Do you know what I mean? It's just like a lot of people do. Like if you got the horse quickly, would it have been yum? It started out real hot,
Starting point is 01:03:02 but do you remember the date I told you it was? 18... No, January 15th 1919 you're talking an early 20th century winter in Boston it was freezing cold so it started out super hot but what apparently the horses caused the horses to drown was they went into it but then it started it was so cold it started to thicken and they were like just like in a never ending story. Oh my god I was gonna say. Artre you! I don't know what that is but I can't. Oh my god why don't you know anything? Why don't you get any? Oh no it's Artax. Artre you is the kid.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Kid. Yeah. Um. Come on Artax you can make it. Um. This is why you don't have feelings, Fledge. You didn't have them destroyed by- Cause I didn't have, I wasn't- Trauma. This is shared trauma between people around our age. Crap movies. So what caused it was the tank was poorly built
Starting point is 01:03:59 and rushed into use. They tested it with water but got to halfway and said, nothing's buckling, that'll be sweet. Top it right up with- Oh, lazy, it sounds lazy. Sounds like something I'd do. It's fine now. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Fill it with treacle. So the molasses. Fill her up with molasses. The molasses was there. The weather went a little bit warmer from freezing to just above freezing, and there was an expansion inside the tank, because that's how that works,
Starting point is 01:04:20 and it went crack and it found the weak point, and as soon as that weak point opened, the molasses just rolled forth. Wow. Jesus. This is a really interesting fact. I'm captivated. And locals say, on a hot summer's day, you can still smell the molasses.
Starting point is 01:04:36 I bet that's what the walking tour guide says. Yeah, smell that. Stop hearing. There's probably somebody, like, part of the organizer tour that got molasses. They sprinkle it over the concrete. Yeah, it's literally just a spray from Bed Bath and Beyond. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:04:52 Yeah, molasses. Molasses. So today's fact of the day is in the great molasses flood in Boston in January, 1919, 21 people died when a six meter tall wave of molasses swept through the streets. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.

Starting point is 01:05:30 Must be nice. Well, you'll know. You'll know because you'll be there too. Same flight. Same flight. Must be nice. And it will be. Because my parents live there
Starting point is 01:05:41 and I'm going to go hang out with them for a couple of weeks. Lovely. And I won't be hanging out with them for a couple of weeks. Lovely. I won't be hanging out with them. Going somewhere different. No, but I think Dr. Shawnee and his husband might come and hang out with the Sprouse for a little bit. I love that.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Your mum loves- Oh my God, she's in love with Dr. Shawnee. Yeah. Oh, I love Dr. Shawnee. I think it's a long play to try and get some kind of prescription to be honest. Right. We'll see how that pans out.
Starting point is 01:06:04 Well, speaking of prescriptions, my mother has once again, last year I had to take eight tins of butter, and you can get it at Duty Free, but my mum got it from somewhere else, delivered to me, to my house, and eight tins of butter in my luggage. What are we talking here? No, no, it's New Zealand butter,
Starting point is 01:06:26 but it's in this tin. It's bougie. It's bougie. Golden churn, man. Can you take it through transit into another airport security? Patsy doesn't give a shit. Right, okay.

Starting point is 01:06:46 Prescriptions. Now she has rung my local chemist and had some prescriptions sent there that I've gotta go pick up today. Okay, are you allowed to just take someone else's prescriptions? Patsy doesn't give a toss. It's on the paperwork, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:00 You know when you're going into countries, I feel like they ask about your prescriptions. You're carrying an invitation. Yeah, you're not Italy. Do you know what I mean? It's pretty low-safe. Two Watties tomato sauces. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:07:13 Brackets, what is a gift for a Kiwi bar in Paris who are making meat pies? Now, if this is a bar, they're gonna have one Watties? That's not gonna be enough. They'll be putting a dollop, a decorative dollop. And am I getting the tin? Cause that feels more transportable. Feels like, I feel like you should go to one of those,
Starting point is 01:07:33 like Gilmour's or, you know, Trent's and get a big, yeah. Two Watties tomato sauces. You're telling me you're in France, perhaps the gooch of cuisine. In Paris. In Paris. Yep. And they want Wattie's tomato sauce.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Of all the sauces. I'd go a Carney chutney before I went to Wattie's. I'm going to Whitlock's. Yeah, I'm going to Whitlock's. I'm going to Whitlock's or a Tui Mato. Yeah. No, I'm going to bring two Wattie's tomato sauces. The largest Chelsea brown sugar you can find.
Starting point is 01:08:05 Brown sugar. Brown sugar, here we are, made of molasses. Which is made, as I said before, it's made by molasses. No, Shannon said that. Sorry, Shannon said that. It was Shannon. And the final one is shredded coconut, brackets the big threads.
Starting point is 01:08:19 What? Like desiccated? Yeah. Desiccated. Desiccated. No, threaded. Wait they don't have coconut in France? No this is my parents little village.
Starting point is 01:08:30 I don't think your mom does want the heaviest bag of Chelsea Brown Sugar, it comes as 25 kgs. Oh my god. Please turn up with it and just drop it and be like you are, this is exactly what you asked for. How much? 25 kgs. 25 kgs.
Starting point is 01:08:42 Imagine. I've only got 30 and my suitcase is six. You better have a clear out sweetheart because you've only got 5 kgs of baggage on out now. That's the kind of humour I really appreciate someone doing that. The biggest one you can find, she's talking a 1 kg. And how much is the extra luggage? Or you pull out a 5 litre, you know, gallon handle of tomato sauce. 25 kgs of brown sugar for 59 bucks, that's not bad.
Starting point is 01:09:03 That's really not bad for a bakery. How long do you reckon that would take you to sprinkle on your porridge for the whole year? You're doing a lot of porridge. So she doesn't want, she wants shredded coconut, not desiccated, desiccated is too fine. The shredded's the longer ones. The long threads.
Starting point is 01:09:16 That's why she put bracket threads. Yeah, when you get a bougie lamington and it's got the big coconut on it, that's when you know it's a posh lamington. That's when you know it's posh. Anyway, so that's what I'm gonna be doing today. Okay, well seeing as I've been with you on a weekend to Australia and you managed to have 25 kgs.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Going to the destination. Yes, yeah. How are you gonna handle this? Well, I haven't started packing. Right. So I'm gonna make a pile of desires yeah and then I will cull from that the things that I know I won't end up wearing yeah and remind myself that I will be you know wanting to buy some antiques so okay so what I take in
Starting point is 01:09:56 weight of brown sugar coconut tomato sauce and prescriptions I'll be replacing okay with old junk play ZM's flesh-borne and Haley. News story from the San Francisco Standard is talking about San Francisco employers. I don't know if I feel like most of these because you know San Frans big for tech the tech industry. Yeah, I feel like most of these complaints are probably coming from the tech industry, but they've fed up with Gen Z workers, a lot of these places. They wanna be promoted after only a few months.
Starting point is 01:10:29 They treat the office like their bedroom. They show up in sweats, which I would love, and I think I have quite often worn sweatpants. I've seen you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love my short sweatpants. I'm not against. I can see it all. I'm not against sweatpants.
Starting point is 01:10:41 I can see it all, the whole outline. I'm not against sweet pants in the office Other complaints, they have a hard time getting along with other workers and blah blah blah apparently 12.5 percent of Gen Z has brought a mum or dad to the job interview. Oh my god, we've talked about that before How embarrassing get a grip and apparently also basic skills and hygiene and eye contact are other complaints. So a lot of, and I don't relate to any of that,
Starting point is 01:11:11 like we've got Gen Z's in the office and it's fine, isn't it? There's no body odor. There's no, I don't smell a body odor out there, Shannon. No, you smell great. Firstly, thank you for wearing deodorant. Yeah. And looking at us in the eyes.
Starting point is 01:11:25 And eye contact. Thank you for not wearing sweats. The girls are always well presented and it makes a difference to the workplace. It does. So a lot of workplaces are hiring etiquette people to come into the workplace to teach people that they should How to grow up.
Starting point is 01:11:40 That they should have a shower before they come to work, that they should wear, I don't know, presentable clothing, look people in the eye, use the phone. That's so embarrassing. Isn't that wild? Are you embarrassed? I'd be humiliated if someone had to tell me, hey, hon, shower.
Starting point is 01:11:56 Oh, I know. Although, do you remember the other day Hayley hadn't showered in like 24 hours? Yeah, you could tell. So, that's also embarrassing. We do have to show it, yeah. There's always been smelly people. Every generation's had their Pongy people.
Starting point is 01:12:07 That partnered with everything else as a bit sort of get it together. Right. Bringing your mummy to your work interview and then wanting to get promoted within two months in your track pants. We've talked about this, Vaughn did that. Well, I took my parents to my broadcasting school
Starting point is 01:12:21 interview to get into broadcasting school, but that was because I had to- Because you're a big loser. They drove up. Okay, and they had nowhere else to go. And they didn't want to sit in the car. Right so they wanted to come in. Yeah so they came in. And then the people who were interviewing me said do you want them to come in? I said I don't know, it's up to them if they want to come in. Mum's like yeah we'll come in. Dad's like hey. So they did, they came right in. They sat behind me.
Starting point is 01:12:39 But I've never taken them to a job interview. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, well that's good. Have I? I don't know. I'd just be embarrassed for my generation if that was the case. I mean we're not perfect though are we? I mean someone just did message them, Gen Z have gone through an unprecedented event every year of their life.
Starting point is 01:13:07 I know, like, what do you think about it? It's like stacked against them. Oh gosh. So what were they, 20, so they were born like what, 98 onwards, right? Gen Z, is that about, is that about right? Yeah. Yeah. Maybe 2000? Yeah. It's been non-stop. Think about everything that's happened since. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:27 It's been nonstop. But it's like, you know, it's not hard to go to the room. Put a slack on. Like put on some pants. Yeah, put on a trouser. Put on at least some trousers. A track pant. Sure.
