From the ZM Podcast Network, this is Fleshhorn and Hayley's Big Pod.
Thanks to Animate's Making Happy Happen for Pets.
ZM's Fleshhorn and Hayley.
Thanks, Brunifer. Good morning. Fleshhorn and Hayley.
It's one minute past six.
Your chance to win cash again this morning with International ATM at eight o'clock.
The top six coming up, yeah the top six signs
your barbecue is used to transport $2 million worth of methamphetamine. Oh goodness. Yeah
apparently inside of a little portable barbecue some meth was being smuggled into the country.
And that could mean that other barbecues have had meth in them. Everybody knows you pop
it up your bum. Not I, it was a fair bit. Oh okay. There's quite a large squad. It was a lot.
Tunnel.
Huge sort of situation.
But next on the show,
I want to talk about some news that Bryn missed.
I saw this footage yesterday and I was like,
this, it just feels like the spark is ever closer
to the powder keg that is America.
Yeah, so you've got audio of this happening.
And you can Google it and see the video.
Just a poor journalist.
I know, I'm just doing it in my head.
Reporting on the riots.
I mean the one thing you do as a national war eater,
you don't shoot the journalists.
You don't shoot the journalists.
Sort of feel like we all agreed
you don't shoot the journalists.
You don't shoot the journalists.
Well next.
The LAPD not adhering to that rule.
Yeah the journalists get shot.
With a rubber bullet. So we can kind of lulz about it.
Oh no. Ow.
Play ZM's Flashborn and Haley's.
If you're not aware, there's been protests in Los Angeles.
They're kind of sprouting up a few other places around America about ice.
Oh yeah the raids.
Immigration raids to deport people who have been
otherwise living a happy, healthy life in America. Or not healthy, I don't know.
And they've been set these targets.
Like they've got to arrest so many people and so many innocent people are
getting, uh, like swept up in these raids.
Like it's a computer game.
So, gotta catch em all.
Immigrants!
Immigrants! Oh my god. So terrible. The National Guard deployed 300 troops to...
In LA. In LA. Yeah. They flew to LA and were put around to kind of deal with these riots.
Feels aggressive. There's journalists down there reporting on it. Lauren Tomasi. Lauren. Oh, good
day Lauren Tomasi. She's channelised foreign correspondent
and she went down to cover the riots.
Now, you might not be familiar with
these sort of international rules of engagement
when it comes to these sorts of things,
but you're not supposed to shoot journalists.
I think you're sort of there for a mutual.
Or the medics.
The medics, the journalists, yeah.
If they're holding up.
Ideally children, I mean, you know.
Yeah, I don't like to shoot children.
I like to shoot, I think primarily you should be, I mean, I'm against it, but you should
be shooting other armed adults.
I reckon just terrorists.
Yeah, the bad guys.
Well, the journalists, and you know they're journalists because they're holding microphones
with logos on them.
And talking into this large camera.
Yeah.
Lauren got shot with a rubber bullet.
Want to hear the audio?
It's not funny.
I would 100% recommend looking them up
because you might be like, oh, heck,
the thing just went off or they were trying to
like disperse someone else or someone was running at
the police with some sort of, you know, makeshift weapon.
Nope. The cop just turns, lines are up and shoots her.
As now rapidly deteriorated.
The LAPD moving in on horseback, firing rubber bullets
at protesters, moving them on through the heart of LA.
BOOM.
Here we go.
Ah!
You just f***ing shot the f***ing journalist.
You OK?
You just f***ing shot the f***ing journalist.
And they, they, she wasn't even right by the protesters, right?
She was to the side?
Oh, she's got good meteredage on her.
Away from it.
Yeah, she's a fair way away.
But you see the guy, like, he's sort of panning with his gun, like keeping an eye out for
anything, and then he just sees her and he's like, I don't know, he just pulls it up and
boom.
What's he doing?
If the camera hadn't been on the angle it was on,
you wouldn't have seen it,
but it literally just swings back
just in time to say this guy just arm up.
Deliberate.
Yeah.
Not an accident until like straight rubber blows.
I know what it's like, cause I've been at paintball.
I know what it's like to have, you know,
all the paintballs in there and you're a little bit jazzed
and you want to let off a couple of rounds before it starts.
But you know the old rule is you don't point at people
who aren't wearing the face helmet.
The face mask.
Yeah.
And then what it hits you like it looks like it's in the lower leg.
Yeah in the calf or something.
I have to see a follow up.
I wonder if she's on Instagram.
Because I bet she posted a beautiful picture of a hat.
Have a quick look.
Have a quick look.
Because I've got very tender calves.
I can't even when I get a massage.
I can't even handle it when I get to the back of the calf.
Same.
Girls bruise easier than guys.
Is that a bad thing to say? Like peaches. No no we're peachy of the path. Same. Girls bruise easier than guys. Is that a bad thing to say?
No, no, we're peachy.
You're peachy.
I bruise like a peach.
I wanna see this.
Poor girl.
The last thing Lauren posted was her wedding photos.
Oh, bad.
Oh, they're not pinned though?
She's a bit dud on social media.
Really?
Okay, hold on, we've got stories.
Yeah, here you go.
Oh my gourd.
Oh my gourd.
Her watch told her she had an abnormally high heart rate because obviously she's on.
Yeah I reckon my heart might peak a little bit if I got shot in the leg.
15 hours ago, you know, there's no picture of the bruise.
Can you imagine?
She needs some follow ups.
Can we DM her and be like, picky of the bruise or it didn't happen?
I mean, upload to the gram or it didn't happen?
The video is there, it certainly happened.
Oh my god, poor thing.
Man, America is just honestly. Well just, yeah, in. Oh my god, poor thing. And America is just honestly...
In general, don't shoot the journalists.
God, I'd be terrified if your wife was over there covering this.
They've just seen her wedding photos.
You normally wouldn't be too terrified if your wife was working overseas in America.
In LA, no.
She's hardly, you know, in the Gaza Strip.
Not normally.
Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Hayley.
From your local community Facebook page,
this is the top six.
It is today.
Ah, hello.
Two million dollars worth of methamphetamines
were found, plural,
inside a barbecue at Auckland International Airport
a way of smuggling in.
Sorry. Six hundred thousand dollars worth. It's two kgs, not $200,000 worth.
So they just ram it in the barbecue.
This is how they get it.
Yeah, they put it in the barbecue, they pack it in,
and then they box the barbecue up
to make it look like a barbecue.
And then they take it out,
and your barbecue that you're buying
could have had meth in it.
We should have got my friend, the correspondent,
my friend who works with the police busting meth things.
But she was all over this.
A smokeless barbecue grill.
A foreign national arrived at Auckland International Airport
on a flight from Kuala Lumpur.
Kuala Lumpur.
In Malaysia on Saturday.
And they searched the bag and, yes, $600,000 worth of methamphetamine.
Two kilograms.
We got the express line the other day, didn000 worth of methamphetamine, 2 kilograms.
We got the express line the other day, didn't we?
We didn't have to scan our bags, but then we got to see the cute beagle.
Yeah, and then we said, don't pat it, don't pat it, don't pat it, I'm working.
They don't let you pat us, pat her.
Yeah. No, no pats.
No pats. No pats.
And you don't know what beagle's on, you don't know what beagle's on.
But I want... Is it the food beagle, is it the drugs beagle,
or is it the cash beagle?
I thought they were all the same beagle. No, I think there's multiple beagle. Is it the drugs beagle or is it the cash beagle?
I thought they were all the same beagle.
No, I think there's multiple beagles.
No, are you sure?
No, I think the nostril is trained to one thing.
Yeah, I think they're a super trained beagle.
Right.
The dog that can sniff out a tumour
can't sniff out your methamphetamine.
Yeah. Right, okay.
Interesting.
Or maybe, maybe he dabbles, I don't know.
I don't know either.
But I've got the top six signs your barbecue
that you're using now was used to transport methamphetamine.
Goodness, okay.
Number six on the list.
Do you want another sausage, bro?
Yeah.
Will they come and get it?
I'm not coming to you.
Stop being so lazy, you son of a bitch.
Yeah, well, okay.
Wow.
It's a meth barbecue.
Yeah, it's a meth barbecue.
Number five on the list of the top six signs
your barbecue was used to transport methamphetamine.
After that first barbecue in October, it was only five sleeps till Christmas.
Yeah, where did the time go?
Where I've got so much done.
Okay, I haven't done any meth ever in my life all this year, but this year is going so fast.
But I don't think that's the meth.
That's not the meth. No, that's not myth.
That's just life.
That's just fast.
I've never done myth either.
Life is fast.
I'm proud to say it.
I feel like if I don't now say,
I also have never done myth,
people are gonna assume I stay quiet on the top of my head.
I've also never touched myth.
I don't know anyone that has,
but there's such a problem with it in New Zealand.
Like it's a serious problem.
Oh, you know.
But you have a...
Is it true? I think so. I think that's why so many people get hooked and get onto it. such a problem with it in New Zealand. Like it's a serious problem. Are you? No. But yeah, but you-
I think so.
I think that's why so many people get hooked
and get onto it.
That's why people get onto it.
But yeah, it's-
Massive problem.
Massive problem, but I don't know anyone.
You do.
Yeah, you do.
But you just, the scary thing about it, you do.
You would, but you just have no idea.
You'll probably know a high functioning meth user.
That's crazy, isn't it?
It is crazy, because it feels so dirty.
Yeah, and they don't look like the stereotypical meth user that you're
showing on the news or... Oh I know like the ones in Australia.
Yeah. On ice. Yeah. Number four on the list of the top six signs your barbecue
is used to transport 2kgs worth of meth. You just lost four
teeth chewing a sizzler. Those things are soft. Those things are
soft man, your teeth are now softer. Your teeth are softer than a sizzler.
Softer than a sizzler is a really funny term.
Softer than a sizzler is actually a RockQuest album name.
Yeah.
Not the band.
Not the band.
Not the band.
That can go with one of the bands,
but it's definitely the RockQuest album name.
Softer than a sizzler.
Softer than a sizzler.
Number three on the list are the top six signs
your barbecue is used to transport two kgs worth of meth. You're right
You're just having a yawn over there. I'm sorry
No, I'm thoroughly entertained. I'll get this now you're yawning. He called it. She yawned. It was contagious. Yeah
No, it's not boys. I'm a psychopath. Yeah
Number three on the list of the top six signs your barbecue is used to transport 2kgs of meth
Your barbecue is being guarded by a pit bull cross and it's behind a 12-foot fence with list of the top six signs your barbecues used to transport 2kgs worth of meth. Your barbecues been guarded by a pit bull cross and it's behind a 12 foot fence with wire in the top.
That'll do it.
That'll be right. That'll do it.
Number two on the list of the top six signs your barbecues used to transport meth.
The steak you ate just told you to stab somebody.
Do it. Do it. Hey man. It's me. It's me. Medium rare.
You remember me? Sir Loin. It's me Loin, but call me by my full title.
Sir.
Sir Loin.
Sir Loin, sir Loin demands a sacrifice.
You've got the Stag Knife, make the stab.
And number one on the list of the top six signs
your barbecue's used to transport meth.
Kiss the cook for 30 bucks, I'll do it if you want.
Please, I just need a bit more. I just need a bit more.
I just need a bit more.
That was actually way sadder than intended.
That felt sad.
It was so funny but it was horrible.
It felt punching down, I apologise for it.
Addiction's a really real issue.
I wish I hadn't put that one on the list.
We'll just redact it.
We'll just call it the top five today.
Top five today, redacted number one.
That is today's top five redacted number one.
Play.
ZM.
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
There's, what's our, um, like survey company in New Zealand?
Not like Colmar Brunton, but like, you know, when they...
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley sell a little poll.
That's it. That's it.
Like on the news, they're always like...
Yeah, they're always like...
The blah blah.
The read research.
The read research.
Yeah, they ask New Zealanders this question.
They do all the political polls. Yeah yeah well the American version of that,
talker research, okay did a survey in America of the little things that make
people lose their minds of irritation. The little like stresses they call them in life
that make you absolutely lose it. Is walking really slowly in the middle of the footpath where you can't pass them?
Well I've got a list.
Okay, is that on the list?
So there were some small ones that didn't make the common list but they were mentioned.
Beeping on TV to censor swearing was one of them.
What people don't like it.
Yeah.
I always thought that about censoring swear words as it just draws more attention to the swear word.
Do you think people would rather the sound was clipped out so it was a blank?
So it's just like that?
Yeah, maybe.
Not washing hair for longer than two days.
Aluminum cans and the texture of socks.
So those didn't make the top list.
The texture of socks?
Now obviously the broader stresses mentioned
were rising cost of living, running late
or being stuck in traffic and miscommunication.
Now we can all agree on terrible things.
Here's the list though of everyday stresses
that people mentioned.
One, two, three, four, five, six.
I have the top seven.
That's a weird one.
That's what they provided me.
Isn't that terrible?
Seven, okay. There should've been eight or six, just saying. That's a weird one. That's what they provided me. Isn't that terrible? Seven, okay.
There should have been eight or six.
Just saying.
Five would have been nice.
Anyway, seventh, heavy breathing from someone nearby.
Oh yes.
I've had this since childhood,
because my brother wasn't a snorer.
We shared a room.
Yeah.
Wasn't a snorer, he was a...
Why, I thought you guys were rich.
You had a two-bedroom home.
Renovation rich though.
Oh right, okay.
So when that room was being done, we were in the same.
Yeah, right.
We eventually split rooms.
Okay.
And we also enjoyed it.
We just sat up all night talking,
because we're besties.
Heavy breathing, but I used to scream.
You're heavy breathing.
Okay, six unexpected phone calls when you're like,
who's that?
What's that?
Ooh, ooh, who's calling me?
Ooh, what's that?
I hate that, it gives me anxiety. Usually they want money. What if we're calling you though? Well's that? Ooh, ooh, who's calling me? Ooh, what's that? I hate that, it gives me anxiety.
Usually they want money.
What if we're calling you though?
Well that's okay.
No, that's fine, because you're always a welcome addition to my life.
You can be genuine friends.
You can hear it.
Fifth is loud chewing, also known as mysophonia.
Okay, I was just writing down chewing because if we got to the end
and you hadn't covered loud chewing,
I was going to be like, I've missed loud chewing.
I'm glad it's there.
Loud chewing.
A lot of people, 40% of people.
Stop throat spraying.
Why? You don't even suck.
Do I just have a tickle?
You can't use that every day.
I actually got my phone cord out of my bag
and I saw my throat spray and I was like,
I haven't had a throat spray.
See, you don't need throat spray and you're using it.
He's addicted, it's like a cigarette.
Yeah, you're addicted to it.
Whatever, lip balms. That's daily addicted, it's like a cigarette. Yeah, you're addicted to it. What about lip balms?
Uh, that's daily protection.
That's SPF daily protection.
Not addicted to anything but delicious Mexican mince.
Goblin it the entire time.
Okay, the fourth one, lagging WiFi.
Oh yeah.
I do this whenever WiFi lags.
I'm always like, it's 2025
and I shouldn't have to put up with this.
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what?
It's getting rid of the router
that the internet company sends you.
Getting a better one.
You've got, it is worth it because
I used to reset my router every day.
Yeah.
And it was the one,
the one they give you from the internet company
is always this.
She's a nice swish one.
And I brought a swish one.
And I've never reset it since.
Is that your brand, swish?
No, you've got the same one.
Remember we got the same ones. No, I know that's what I was like you've got the same one, remember? We've got the same ones.
No, I know that's what I was like.
Mine's the small one.
Should I get one?
And they've got multiple things around the house.
Yeah, and you can just buy more extenders
and just bring your Wi-Fi everywhere.
Michael sort you out.
Yeah, okay, can we talk to Mike on sat D?
He'll sort you out.
Can you write it down on your phone as a note?
I'll forget.
Amplify.
Yeah, we've got amplify.
That's the brand we've got.
But there's so many now.
Because mine's in the heart of the house,
but if you go to the front room or the tail end
and the garage, no.
Yeah, but the boosters aren't gonna hit your aesthetic.
Oh yeah.
The boosters, cause I don't mind a big, big honey booster.
But this could lean into my company idea
that I wanted to do,
which was make aesthetically pleasing
fly spray dispenser covers.
I could make mesh wifi.
Just make decent fly spray covers.
Just make decent fly spray.
There are some nice ones.
But yeah, kind of in the last couple of years, mesh routers, it's on the go.
I'll hide them, I'll hide them.
You can hide them behind pot plants or something.
Top three everyday irritations.
Oh no, I've got a pimple growing in my eyebrow.
Oh, I hate that.
No, but that's good, it's hidden.
I know it's hidden, but it's sore.
Yeah, but don't touch it.
And don't rock it.
Don't squeeze it.
Oh, that's sore.
Okay, top three things that annoy people
according to the survey.
People talking when you want silence.
No, I don't ever want silence.
What would I think about?
You don't want to be alone with your thoughts.
Top, the second position,
unexpected knocks on the door.
Absolutely.
Oh God, who's that?
These are the things that annoy you the most.
People in life.
That little list of things that annoy
the hell out of people.
Unexpected knocks on the door.
The top one, seeing someone in public
that you do not want to talk to.
Oh yeah, and pretending you didn't see them
and crossing the road.
And when you're like, oh no.
Yeah, exactly.
Yep, I agree with this list.
What if it's changed the way you walk up
the supermarket aisles cause you've seen someone
you don't want to talk to.
Oh, and you're still in front of your first half
of the supermarket
and you're just gonna be crossing paths the whole time.
No.
The worst, the pits. Yesterday I went to the supermarket and you're just going to be crossing paths the whole time? No. The worst, the pits.
Yesterday I went to the supermarket and I put heavy metal in my ears and I just like, just kind of head downed my shop.
And then there was a guy apparently chasing me for like about a minute because my basket overflowed and everything just kept dropping out.
And he got to the till and was like, I've been trying to get your attention.
He had three things that had had fallen out along my shop.
Maybe you need a trolley.
What were you doing with a basket?
Why didn't you get a trolley?
I thought it was a basket shop but it was a trolley shop.
I always go back and you go back through the doga doga doga doga doga
All the wrong way.
No I thought it was a basket shop but it turned into a trolley.
That was on me.

Honestly, thoughts and prayers to everyone who suffers from regular migraines.
I have had one migraine in my entire life and it sucked.
One? Do you mean like headache or migraine?
I don't even get headaches.
No, if you say to someone who gets migraines, is it the same as a headache?
They'll probably punch you in the gullies.
Yeah right, because it's full on, eh?
Oh mate, my mum's had them her whole life.
She can be sick, you know, you can like throw up,
you can't function.
Does she like it when people say,
are you drinking enough water?
Have you had enough water, Betsy?
I think she really likes it.
Yeah, she would.
It says, when I get a headache,
that'll be that or coffee.
I'll be like,
too much?
No, when did I last have one?
Oh, okay. Ah, the crippling.
The crippling withdrawals.
The crippling withdrawals.
Oh God.
Of caffeine.
But that wouldn't even come close to a migraine.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I get dehydrated headaches and you're like,
that sucks enough.
Migraines can be debilitating.
Some friends can't see.
You know, they get those visual migraines
and their visual go, I mean, they're awful.
Anyway, so there is this hack that's been going around TikTok called the
McMigraine hack.
The McMigraine, okay.
And you said your mum Patsy.
Has done this since I've been aware.
Wow.
Since the nineties.
So this is a certified hack.
Yeah.
And then there's five stars.
There is a epidemiologist, Dr.
Fiona Imler, who is a co-founder of the Migraine Foundation
of Aotearoa, who has actually chimed in on this and said whether it's another bloody
TikTok palaver hack that's, you know, silly Billy.
A waste of time.
A waste of time.
Or whether it's got merit, and it does.
So the McMigraine meal is a bottle of full sugar Coke
and a side of salty fries.
That's a...
Salt and sugar.
Salt and sugar and caffeine.
And caffeine.
That's the trifecta.
What, so drink a bottle of Coke.
Drink a bottle of sugary Coke.
It's called the Mc...
McMigraine meal.
Because you can go to Maccas and get a big Coke.
Yeah, go to get a big Coke
and a punnet of very salty fries.
And you know the McDonald's fries are salt-licious.
Yum.
Salt-delicious, that, so, sorry,
I shouldn't have brought up Fergie.
So-
It's just, this is approaching a really special,
sort of like-
I know, a 20 year anniversary.
And I'm so sorry.
So I would always remember, are you all right?
I'm so sorry, I'm just being silly.
I'm just being silly, I guess I didn't think-
It's approaching 20 years since we were in the gym
and she was working on her fitness
and I was her witness.
Ooh.
Yeah, that's right.
She's got this lovely lady lumps.
This doesn't sound like it would be a good hack every day.
Just saying.
Listen, when you've got a migraine,
you do what you gotta do.
And I remember this.
My mum would be like, it would start.
And the moment she would feel it, she'd be like,
oh, she was like, I need to get McDonald's.
And she'd go to McDonald's, and she would get a Filet-O-Fish,
and I've inherited that quality from her.
But it was always about the fries and the big cold Coke.
So this Dr. Fiona Imlak says it's completely makes sense,
however, you gotta be cautious.
Yeah, can you get sugar from somewhere else,
like fruit, and then have salt?
Could you have salty fruit?
Or something?
I'm just trying to think of...
I'm just trying to think of...
I'm just like, you can't be doing this every day
if you have migraines.
My co-pilot has made such a terrible suggestion
for a snack, I'm about to plunge this A320
into the ground. Into the ocean.
Well, so the Coke provides the caffeine and the sugar hit.
And caffeine is an effective,
can be an effective treatment for migraines,
but you've got to limit it.
Like you can't be doing it all the time.
The problems that would come with doing that every day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The migraine brain likes routine.
So if you kind of get too into this for sure.
But then is it like a panadol,
like it'll work for a couple of hours and then you've got to go back for
more? But you can stop migraines in their tracks and then they're done not like a
headache where it's like kind of this rolling thing you can kind of stop them. A sugar
hit also helps because of the way that the glucose interacts with your brain.
Lollies. Lollies. But I get it that feeling of feeling sick and yuck and having an ice
cold coke and some salty fries.
So you're telling me a salted caramel latte is the ultimate solution to a migraine.
What have you got, caffeine, salt and sugar? I mean you could, but you look like a real...
Hi!
Hi!
I've got a splitting headache coming on. Can I please get my salted caramel latte?
Can I get an extra shot of caramel?
Extra shots of everything.
Please.
ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Another example here of Vaughan not chickenness.
Yes.
Don't you dare.
Vaughan, he said, I've got a story.
I didn't say that at all.
He was like, guys, guys, guys, I'm excited to share this with the nature.
Do you want to hear what I suggested we talk about on the show today?
What?
I'll give you the list.
Get out of it.
Piss off, sorry!
Because Vaughan was gonna tell you about a new,
well it turns out it's not new.
New, brand new way.
That Hong Kong wants to stop smoking.
My idea is to talk about it today on the show.
The private ambulance drivers who fudged the numbers
so that they could keep the drugs.
Did you read the story?
No.
No.
They're in trouble because apparently if you're a private ambulance you can apply for drugs, the drugs. Did you read this story? No. They're in trouble because apparently
if you're a private ambulance,
you can apply for drugs, restricted drugs.
Oh yeah.
But you gotta do stock takes and stuff.
So they're like, oh yeah, that guy wanted
so much ketamine.
And then there was like this,
someone did a bit of a stock take
and it turns out they were keeping some.
Oh right.
Other things I wanted to talk about,
how people managed to steal a two ton,
$95,000 sculpture.
And then I was going to think, it was a great story.
How did they steal that? How did something of yours get stolen?
They would have been so good at this point.
They would have been great at this point.
The Lesnack being back for a limited time.
The Lesnack is back.
The Lesnack is back.
For a limited time.
And that's what we want to talk about.
And that's what we want to talk about.
Born wanted to talk about this old story from 2003.
Fletcher's idea was we talk about how in Hong Kong
there's a new, and I will say new,
hold on, let me find the exact word in his email here
where he's peddling this idea.
Why are you switching the blame, Vaughan?
Just own your shit.
Definitely not me, definitely not me.
About Hong Kong is asking people to stare at smokers
who discourage them, and then Fletcher sent through a link
to a news story on the BBC that the post
of publishing date, 15th of July, 2023.
Now he does this all the time.
I don't do this all the time.
That's two years old.
He does this all the time.
It's a great story though.
It's a great story but is it as heart-touching
as the Lesnack being back limited time?
We got delivered a whole box of Lesnacks recently
and I tell you what, we went in
and mine and Vaughan's review of the Lesnack was that the cheese is better. Yeah they were Australian ones though, they were
Australian parallel imported. Yeah yeah yeah. But then so I took some home and the kids were just like
these rule, yeah what are these dad? And then they got through all of them and Sade's like we'll buy some more and
she bought another cheesy cracker dip and the kids were like mum this is trash. This is trash compared to Lesnacks.
They were like dad tastes this cheese and like it were like, mom this is trash. This is trash compared to Lesnack.
They were like dad tastes this cheese and like it was like we were some sort of cheese family.
I felt like I was of the mainland family. Yeah and they put some cheese on a cracker
and I said you're dead right actually that is liquid trash. Yeah oh my god no the Lesnack was
elite. Yeah so in some New Zealand supermarkets for a limited time, it was around for 30 years
before it was discontinued in 2022.
What was your favourite dunking snack?
Cause you couldn't go past Dunkaroos.
Dunkaroos.
We never had any of those.
We never got Dunkaroos, but if we went to Nana's house,
if mum and dad went on holiday without us,
as they did every year,
cause why would you take your kids to Hawaii?
And that's a trauma that's last time.
I mean, fair enough, looking back on it,
like they went to all the cool stuff that you do
only if you were adults without dragging children around.
Like swingers clubs.
No, Pearl Harbor Memorial.
Oh yeah.
So they just-
So they just-
We've got very different ideas
of what you do when your kids aren't around.
Different holidays.
Yeah, different holidays.
So they just basically lived a life
like they didn't have kids.
Yeah.
But then they basically-
Oh, the Dunkin Snacks. We loved it because then you'd go to Nana's and Nana was like, what do you guys usually have? Roll up snacks. So they just basically lived a life like they didn't have kids. Yeah. But then they basically lived.
Oh, other talking snacks.
We loved it because then you would go to Nana's
and Nana was like, what do you guys usually have?
Roll ups.
And we'd be like, roll ups, dunkaroos.
And Nana would be like.
Not wraps, what were they?
Roll ups and yonks.
Fruit for yonks.
Fruit for yonks.
There was a third dip.
Dips wise it was dunkaroos.
Dunkaroos, I'm thinking of tiny teddies,
but what was the other, there was another dip one. Tiny teddies did have a dip, a limited run on the dip. I feel like there was a yoghurt- third dip. Dips wise it was Dunkaroos. Dunkaroos. I'm thinking of Tiny Teddies but what was the other? There was another dip one.
Tiny Teddies did have a dip, a limited run on the dip.
I feel like there was a Yoggety dip.
Yes, that's what I'm thinking of.
And you dipped a yogurt with some biscuits.
Yeah.
A Yoggety dip with biscuits?
Yeah, but it was more like a Choc Pud.
I feel like it was more of a Choc Pud.
I can't remember.
Patsy used to make me some freshly cut strawberries and a homemade chocolate ganache to dip into.
Of course she did.
So I put that number one on my list.
Right, okay.
Patsy's ganache with pre-trimmed strawberries.
I won't rest until we know Dunkaroos,
top ten snacks from the 90s, Dunkaroos.
I reckon just let it go.
No, I think we're missing one.
Yo-yo-bee, yo-yo-yo-bee.
Yo-yo-bee.
Yo-yo-bee, yeah, yo-yo-bee.
I feel like the name is there.
Yeah, La Snack, I'm just on a Reddit sub post now,
aren't it nice animals?
That's the third time they've been mentioned on the show.
This week, Tuesday.
And this Tuesday.
This week, yeah.
90s with a beer, sugar dumped in sugar,
then sprinkled with more sugar,
and marketed directly to the children
who shouldn't have been eating it.
That sums up the 90s really, doesn't it?
Someone's gonna be sitting there and I can feel it.
I think we'll let it go.
Those, no.
I think you're imagining a snack that didn't exist.
Those yogurt things that were frozen.
That was the dairy version of juices.
No, no, no, no, no.
Fruisies.
Fruisies or something.
Yumba?
What were the mousies?
Mousies.
Mousies were the milk ones.
Yeah.
Couple of minutes away from...
No, no, no, we need to think about what it was.
Couple of minutes away from seven.

I think it was Sunday night, maybe,
yeah, Sunday night, I was in bed,
and I have very sensitive ears.
I've got great hearing, I can hear everything.
Like if there's a party, the next sabbath long,
I'm disturbed by it.
High frequency and low frequency in particular.
I can always hear it.
You know if there's like a bum, buzz or a hum? You hear it. I'm out by a high frequency and low frequency in particular. I always hear it You know if there's like a bump buzz or a hum you hear it. Yeah
Yeah, do you must hate if you stay in a motel or a hotel the fridge?
Hotel sometimes the fridge is like
Was always a real light sleep with noise I sleep with brown noise now and because that's all the noise that kind of blanks out so much other noise Nice hotels, sometimes the fridge is like, bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz It's a mousey, he wants some cheese. Going like this. Higher than that, but that's as high as I can go.
This little kind of fluctuating thing.
And I was like, what is that?
You know, like what is that?
So I get up, I do that thing, we're getting around,
you know you start putting your head towards plug holes
and be like, is it that? Is it the lamp?
Is it this? Is it this light?
Going around sussing, sussing.
And then I open up the back door to my,
I've got a door to the outside of my house, in my bedroom.
I was like, nope, not outside. Come back in.
Hunting, hunting, hunting. Cannot find it.
I was like, oh my God, this is gonna drive me nuts all night.
Put my head back down on the pillow.
And I was like, oh my God, annoying.
And then I covered my ears.
I could still hear it.
I was like, oh, it's in you.
Oh, it might be in you. It might be in me.
And remember my brother and mother have tinnitus. So I was like, that's a family you. Oh, it might be in me. It might be in me. It might be in you. And remember my brother and mother have tinnitus,
so I was like, ugh.
That's a family trait.
That's a family trait, so I was like, oh no.
And that's like a high pitched ringing in your ears?
Yeah, like a constant ringing.
So then I like put on brown noise to drown it out,
and that was it.
And then I woke up in the morning, I was like, it's gone.
It's gone.
It's gone, okay, okay.
Last night I get into bed.
Eeeeww, eeeeww.
Eeeeww, eeeeww, eeeeww. Are you listening to music headphones before you go to bed? It's gone. It's gone. Okay, okay. Last night I get into bed. Nyaa nyaa. Nyaa nyaa nyaa.
Are you listening to music headphones before you go to bed?
No, I cannot figure, I genuinely, authentically do not know
if this is a real noise and there's something like
a plug going funny or if it's in my head.
Right, is it there in the afternoon?
No.
Just when you go to bed.
But you don't hear it during the day.
But you don't hear it in the afternoon
because of all the other atmospheric noise.
Yeah, fair.
Or when you're in bed just alone,
like with your own thoughts, you're like,
what's that?
What's that?
I don't know how to roll it out.
It sounds like it's in you.
Or it could be a small.
But it's so electronicy.
Could it be a possum of, like a family of possums
under the.
They wouldn't make that high pitched sound.
No, they don't.
The frequency is the highest.
They're dialing up the internet because possums don't have broadband yet.
Do you think it's possum broadband?
They've got the PC, the possum computer.
That's the weeyaw weeyaw.

They said drone.
They meant like a flying drone.
No, no, no, someone said drone.
Another couple people have said mosquito.
Oh, mosquito, oh, okay.
Also someone said, and I've had this before.
Oh yeah, I've had this before too.
The water bottle with the pressure.
Yes, as the water warms up,
because you put it in there cold,
and then you put the lid on it, it's not quite sealed, and as it warms up, because you put it in there cold and then you put the lid on and it's not quite sealed.
And as it warms and expands, it forces the air out
and it makes the weirdest little-
Like a whistling.
Super quiet noise.
Yeah. Yeah.
Eee, let me out.
Drink bottle letting air out of the drinking spray.
I'm gonna listen to the drink bottle tonight.
But honestly, I must-
But yours is just a straw straight in the drink bottle.
But this isn't the one I have next to the bed.
Oh, okay, yeah.
Because my one, my gym bottle has a seal.
And then it escapes and makes a weird noise.
I hope it's external and not internal.
Yeah, if it's an internal noise, that's more problematic.
Yeah, way more problematic.

Do you like overtaking while driving?
I personally do not. Not if it's not a passing lane, I get nervous.
I love a passing lane.
I think we should have more of them.
Well what's the rule, you've gotta have,
see at least 100 metres ahead of you?
Oh yeah.
No, it's gotta be way more than that.
It's gotta be way more than that.
A thousand metres.
It's gotta be, it's gotta be.
A kilometre.
Eight kilometres.
A hundred metres would,
and if the car is coming the other way,
going 100 kilometres an hour, so you've only gotta do 50 metres each before you crash, that's a length of a limousine.
It's got to be significantly more than 100 metres.
Man, I tell you what, some people in New Zealand though, they've got no...
Dude.
On the stuff you see driving on New Zealand roads, it's embarrassing.
And then you get to the next small town and you're right up their butt, you're like,
hey mate, was that worth it? Because I'm still here.
At Bo Pass, yeah.
We had an ending of passing lane recently
and a car was getting towards the end
and he's like, I'm slow,
but I think another car can get past me.
He pulled across, then this car went to pass him
and some guys zoomed around and there's three cars.
Terrifying.
Yeah.
So on a passing lane, yeah.
But like, I think I've only passed like one car recently
that wasn't a passing lane.
Like actually pulled around and passed the car.
It depends where you're driving
because you know, most New Zealand roads,
they're too windy and bumpy.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, so little poll,
do you like overtaking while driving?
58% of people said yes.
42% said no.
See, it's a lot of people that are just happy to sit back,
wait for the passing lane.
Yeah.
Okay, so Christie actually says,
yes, I said yes, but only on a passing line. Okay
Kat says only if necessary and safe to do so, please don't be dicks about it. Don't be dicks
Don't pass on the double yellows. The amount of times you've seen someone on a blind corner doing this. Oh
Hills, corners, bridges, if they're anywhere to be seen it's a big no-no
Sarah says I don't like it at all,
but I live rural and the amount of people
that I end up having to overtake
because they're driving 60 kilometres an hour
on the open road.
Yeah, see that's also dangerous.
That's dangerous, yeah.
Chloe, slow cars and trucks, yes on state highways,
but to be honest, I'm fairly patient.
I'll just cruise behind people.
Good on you Chloe.
Yeah, I'm also known for my patience.
Guys, what's the hurry?
You're a long time dead. Oh yeah. What? Six minutes later. I'm almost gonna save that on you Chloe. What, hey guys, what's Sahari, you're a long time dead.
Oh yeah.
What?
Six minutes later?
I'm almost gonna save that on my phone.
Six minutes later or six foot under?
Whoa!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Taylor's here, yep.
Vroom, vroom, vroom.
Are you just trying to think of one?
Yeah, cause I haven't offered one.
Oh okay.
But if you wanna, should I keep going
and you can have a brainstorm?
Yeah. Okay, Jordy said, So you wanna, but should I keep going and you can have a brainstorm? Yeah.
Okay.
Jordie said, I love it, but I always pretend
like I don't even notice that they're there.
Though the way they're driving literally has been burning
inside me like a thousand suns.
So when I go past them, I just take great pride in boosting.
It's not something I strive to achieve,
but if you're going slow, I'm gonna have to pass.
You says Alex.
Yeah, I mean, it's frustrating.
You get stuck behind a Suzuki Jimny. You just want to overtake it. It's in the fast lane on the motorways.
It's in the middle lane. I'll always overtake on the left if you're in the
fast lane you're going too slow. On your left? We drove your car to the airport why does it rev
so high? Did we get to the bottom of that? Why does it rev so high? Um, it does that sometimes.
There was a button on the gear stick that turned off the overdrive.
Yeah.
Because I was like trying to like accelerate this thing.
I was like, oh, OK.
Adam said, I think in 2001, ancient French philosopher
Ludacris said it best when he said, move, bitch, get out the way.
Get out the way, bitch. Get out the way.
It's a brilliant philosopher of the time
It's never to be beaten. I'm Mason God. I love overtaking especially when it's driven by a basic bitch in a Suzuki Swift or
Jimny, oh that was unnecessary for the
It's not road rage. It's more like learn to drive. I've seen better use of signals and rocket league. It's a video game
Yeah, right. Okay. No, I'm Scott says I used to make it a game in my long distance drives to keep a tally.
Hooking to before the motorway would rack up over a hundred cars.
I would never sped though.
Did it once in a night drive to Wellington only past seven cars.
Okay, it's not a competition.
It's not a competition, Scott.
But I guess it passes the time.
That's right.
Well, you've got to keep tally.
Other people just listened to a podcast.
And he said he never sped.
So, you know, is he doing it safely?
Let's hope so.
It's a dangerous wild road out there.
That's right.
And as I always say,
Oh, here we go.
And as you always say,
She's had time to Google.
And as I always say,
death is nothing, but to live defeated and
inglorious is to die daily.
Too much.
Too much.
You'd never gonna see that on a road safety sign, Hayley.
Somebody messaged in, what are you dying to get there?
Oh, that's right. That's good. That's perfect. Death is nothing. Somebody messaged her, what are you dying to get there? Oh that's right.
That's good.
That's perfect.
You wouldn't put it on a road safety ad,
death is nothing.
Rather be late than dead on time.
Yes!
Oh my god these are fancy.
Keep it simple stupid.
Someone made two Shakespeare on it.
Biscuits.
Better to get there late than not at all.
That's good.
Maybe Google road safety slogans.
About not being in a hurry to die.
No, road safety slogans Google road safety slogans. About not being in a hurry to die. Road safety slogans.
Road safety slogans.
Okay.
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the liver.
No, that's too much.
That's too much.
No, no, no, no, no.
It just needs to be real.
Alert today to live tomorrow.
Yeah, that's nice.
Shit, that's good.
That's nice.
Leave sooner, drive slower, live longer. The idea is to die young as late as possible? No, no, no, no, no. That's nice. Leave sooner, drive slower, live longer.
The idea is to die young as late as possible?
No, no, no, no.
Quite like that.
What about something about an overtaker
and an undertaker?
Like, if you're an overtaker,
you'll be seeing the undertaker.
Share the road and save lives.
I'm sorry, that needed more.
That needed more than this.
It was quite poetical.
And you just came up with that.
Wait, what did you do?
This is fresh.
If you risk being the overtaker.
No, no, no, no, no, you're overdoing it.
What was the first one?
If you're an overtaker, you might meet the undertaker.
Yeah, that's perfect.
Yeah, that's nice and short.
Over and undertaker.
That's perfect.
Oh, that's so good.
I reckon we get around a table,
we start chucking some ideas,
and when they start like dwindling off,
we snort heaps of coke,
and then we just come up with more ideas.
This is how advertising executives work.
You always say this, but I don't think that's how the up with more ideas. This is how advertising executives work.
You always say this, but I don't think that's
how the advertising industry works now.
That's how the advertising industry works.
Have you not seen that in the men?
But it's not the 1950s.
Yeah, it is, sweet cheeks.
Now go and get me a black coffee.
We don't need drugs.
You just come up.
Get that tush out of here
and let me have a squeeze of them boobs.
It's the 1950s again.
Make advertising great again.
What about this?
Leave sooner, drive drive slower live longer
it's a bit eerie. Never drive faster than your guardian angel can fly we're getting them all on the
text machine now. Stop accidents before they stop you. Drive like what? Stop accidents before they
stop you. What about this? Give way to pedestrians. It's not... It's road safety. Drive like lightning and you'll crash like thunder.
You know what?
I think it's time to let Hailey go from advertising agency.
It's just not working out.
No, guys, guys, what about this?
Make sure that you always have an escape route.
We had no...
No, that's about getting out of your house if it's on fire.
Hailey, we've got an important decision to make here.
It's looking at your advertising.
And it's what do we want to spend money on?
Your, what I'm saying, useless ideas or more cocaine.
What about if safety is a joke then death is the punchline?
I don't hate it.
No, she's not.
Baby!
It's not that.
She's not back.
She was never there.
She's not back.
She was never there.
She's not back.
She's back baby.

Now we had a lovely formal event last Thursday evening
and we had a photo taken of the group of us.
Yes, a lovely photo.
We're all in suits and such.
And it's not the first time that somebody has said
we're in Fletchers without Sans hat.
Sans hat.
Sans hat, collared shirt, looking a bit profesh.
Like the one or two times a year I wear a shirt and tie.
He looks undeniably like adult film star, Johnny Sins.
Oh, look, I didn't know this guy was a thing.
I don't know he's a thing.
He's an adult film star and he's got a shaved head.
Yeah, but this is like when people send you photos and they're like, it looks like you, but it's just a shaved head. He's white. This is like when people send you photos
and they're like, it looks like you,
but it's just a bald guy with a beard.
Or a dude with a beard and a beanie
and a tinge of ginger in the beard patch
is all it really takes.
So yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then someone's like, yeah, yeah, get it.
But that's not the first time.
It has been brought to my attention.
It's multiple times.
What's his name?
It's like a Johnny Simpsons. Well, you can't search it on the work internet.
I am currently searching it.
Okay, right.
Yeah. Is it just a bald guy?
A white bald guy?
I've heard people say this before.
That you do look a little bit like him.
Kind of.
I mean, he's got a rig on him, so don't worry about it.
Yeah, it's high praise because he's got a rig.
Oh, so I mean, people say,
oh, you look like Ben Barrington to me.
I'm like, I'll take it.
He's a short-lipped straight man.
You guys did look very similar.
Dr. Drew.
I'm not mad about Johnny since.
You know what I mean?
There's definitely a...
Okay. Yeah.
And if he works in that industry,
we can also assume, you know?
So I'm not mad at that.
Yeah, right.
Okay.
So, but it's not the first time,
but it's also one of those ones where it's really hard
because if you are ever indulging in some adult content,
you see someone that looks like one of your friends,
you want to be like, hey, look, this looks like you.
But then you have to be like.
We know what you've been doing.
Yes.
Yeah.
There's that.
Yeah.
So we wanna know this morning,
and you know, you can dob your friends in as well.
Dobbing your mates.
I don't know if people are gonna admit to this,
but who do you look like?
Do you look like a celebrity or somebody well known?
Like an adult film star online, apparently. I was explaining to a Gen Z the other day, do you look like? Do you look like a celebrity or somebody well known? Like an adult film star online, apparently.
I was explaining to a Gen Z the other day,
do you remember that Facebook trend
when it was like you changed your profile picture
to a celebrity that you're told you look like?
And that was at the time when you were like, oh, hon.
Yeah, that was quite, a few people had a gap
between reality there and huge reality gap.
I mean, I do look like Catherine Zeta-Jones,
so that's why Catherine was mine. Z like Catherine Zeta-Jones though.
That's why Catherine was mine.
Zeta?
Zeta-Jones. Zeta. Zeta? I don't know why I said it.
Like beta. Zeta.
I've always said Zeta.
I'm doubting myself now.
Catherine Zeta-Jones.
I don't think you look anything like...
How dare you?
No you don't look anything like Catherine Zeta-Jones.
One person said it once and I remember being like, oh yeah.
You take that.
I'll take that.
You don't look anything like Catherine Zeta-Jones.
You're far hotter. Me? Catherine Zeta-J don't look any like Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Me?
But Catherine Zeta-Jones.
How old is Catherine Zeta-Jones?
You remember Catherine Zeta-Jones in that movie
where she goes tango under those ladies?
She's 55 now.
She's 55.
Well I'm 35.
Well she gave Michael Douglas throat cancer.
She did indeed.
Well that's not what we say.
So he claims.
Is that when they said you look like Catherine Zeta-Jones?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You look like you gave an 80 like you're a cancer? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You look like you gave an 80-year-old man throat cancer.
Yeah, yeah.

I love this.
Okay, because there is a guy at my gym.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love seeing a Saddam Hussein look alike in the world.
It's just the beard though.
I saw Ramoumogaddafi look alike once in the world
and we were overseas and I was just like,
it might be him, but it wasn't because he was long dead.
It's just the beard.
That's all it is.
Okay great.

like a well-known adult film star.
Johnny Sins.
Johnny Sins, if you want to come up.
Amazing. Yeah, who knew? Who knew?
And actually not offended by it.
You're not offended by that.
No. But sometimes when you do get told you look like someone, it is offensive.
Yeah, it is.
And it's weird when they think it's a compliment too.
Yeah.
Demetri, who do you look like?
I have been told by about six different workplaces that do not know each other that I look like young Gru.
Now this is Gru from the Millions movies, Despicable May Gru.
Young Gru!
And then what makes it worse is my dad also looks like adult Gru.
Great!
And then I'm also married to a redhead like Lucy.
Oh, like Gru.
Right, okay. Is it because you were a scarf and a large coat?
Got a big nose.
No, I don't know what it is, but they just, and the worst one, as soon as they go,
do you know who you look like? I know exactly who they're going to say every single time.
Because we did Gru and the Minions as a fundraiser, as a quiz night costume, and it was fantastic.
Yeah it was perfect. So it sounds like you and your dad could really nail Halloween.
Oh yeah, absolutely. I've joked about it with him a couple of times, but yeah, he's not as keen as I am on four times.
Do you have plans for tonight, Dimitri?
Because tonight we're going to... STAY BOOT!

It's hard, it's hard that I take it on.
Yeah.

We're gonna need to see a photo
because we're gonna need to do a side by side comparison.

Instagram please yes, it'll be lovely of you. Congratulations. I look forward to meeting one day
You know what and if Haley's acting career takes off you could be who to double just don't double yeah

That's a wild ride.
Babes, I'm not talking five to six kgs,
I'm talking 30 at a time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good fun.

Caitlin really messed with that face.
Someone once told me I looked like Hugh Grant.
I'm a 25 year old female at the time.
I mean Hugh Grant is like dashing.
But in a 25 year old woman you don't want to be Hugh Grant.
Unless you're a lesbian.
I reckon you're going to be hot currency as a 25 year old lesbian who looked like Hugh Grant.
Well that'd be right up her alley. I've lesbian who looked like Hugh Grant. I can confirm.
Well that'd be right up the halyards out there.
Oh my god, I've had a crush on Hugh Grant since I could even think.
There's a guy at my work who looks like Mitchell from Modern Family.
It's probably just because he's ginger and wears a business shirt, but I can't watch
Modern Family without seeing it.
That's funny.
My husband looks like a rip-off version of Vin Diesel, so we call him Bin Diesel.

Oh my god, are you a team of a celebrity?
Okay, we'll do that in a couple of weeks.
A couple of weeks?
We'll do it next year.
Give it a cool down period and then jumpstart.

I do have a beard, yes,
but I'm a white Paki Kaki.
Who the other day was saying they were watching them
and they were like, he's actually quite handsome.
Me. Oh, that doco.
Osama.
I watched the Osama documentary
and there was a part of the star
when he's like younger and charming
and walking through a crowd
and he's like tall and dark and mysterious.
And he was pre-attacking the Western world.
But you've got to understand,
this guy created like this insane cult-esque following.
Ugly people don't do that.
Yes, he was charismatic.
He was charming and charismatic and good looking.
Oh my God, here's a photo of him
like having a yarn in a cave and laughing and like,
yeah, I worked. That was the era, that's the era Bin Laden.
I can't wait putting your hands in here
where as I say, yes I would to a young Osama Bin Laden.
Brand shirt is that, it looks like a model shop.
In fact, tomorrow we're gonna do what horrible figure
from history would you sleep with?

But he's not a bad figure. That dude was out there shagging and all.
Oh was he? I thought he was bad.
Russ Butin, the guy that...
Russ Butin with the eyes.
The famous Russian...
And there's a song, Russ Butin. His grandchildren were still alive when that song came out.
Imagine you hear a song on the radio and everyone's like,
I love this song and it's about how much of a shaggy your granddad was. Yeah. Okay, young
young Charles Manson. I've never seen a picture of young Charles Manson. Just
like hippie, CNNs. Again, lots of hair, tall. Who was that real sexy serial killer? Ted, Ted. Ted Bundy. Ted Bundy. Yeah.
Play ZM's Fletch, Bourne and Haley.
Play ZM's Fletch, Bourne and Haley.
I just need to see if anyone in this room
in particular Fletch has a problem
with something that I did last night.
Ha ha ha ha.
We have been on the hunt
for the perfect pair of track pants.
Oh my God, I found them.
And you found them?
Oh what?
No.
Wow, she's copied me.
What's happened here?
So we were down in Chichar.
We were down in Chichar and we were looking
for the perfect pair of track pants.
You know what I'm saying?
If you're gonna go somewhere and look for track pants,
I feel like Christchurch is gonna be the place.
Yeah, it was frosty, man.
And we just were like, we wanna kind of be like, nice enough,
you could wear out and about, good fit,
but like comfortable, not too warm,
not too, please see, not too that.
We, you know, you go out and you had a look
and you found a pair of track pants that you were like,
oh my God, Hayley, these track pants are late, they're nice.
I will say, a late, like not cheap.
They're not Kmart sweatpants or warehouse
Well, then my friend I'm out you're out, but I always buy a pair
I always buy like three ten dollar pairs of warehouse track pants every winter, but they're not like you wouldn't wear them on a plane
Oh, yeah, I wear them about their house. Yeah. Yeah exactly. But you want ones to like travel in
Yes, and then you told me where they were from and I was like, oh, yeah nice
I wonder if they've got women's and so I went on there and I was looking at the women's
and then I saw the ones that Fletch had and they're unisex.
Yeah, they are.
Oh, okay. So I wouldn't have thought any track pants was one way sexed or the other, unless
I've got juicy across the bottom. And then of course they're for men.
No, but the women's ones, they can get a bit more high-waisted or you wear them lower than
we would. So yeah, yesterday I bought the same pair of track pants
that Fletch has and I just wondered if he thought
that that was a bit much.
But you weren't very-
I hit them first.
You'll very rarely be wearing them in the same situation.
I see Turing the Uber, I was like,
feel how warm these are.
I felt them and I thought in my head,
lock that in, I've got to get some of these.
And they look great.
And they look great.
And I was like, you know-
You can wear them out and about
and you're not like, oh, wearing track pants.
Yeah, but I've had this with like women before where like a friend of yours will was like, you know. Like you can wear them out and about and you're not like, oh, wearing track pants. Yeah, but I've had this with like women before
where like a friend of yours will be like,
oh my God, I love your dress.
Where's it from?
And you'll be like, oh, it's from da da da da.
I feel like that's more.
And then you see them and they've got it
and you're like, well.
But how often would you, this is a thing.
You're never gonna be in the same situation.
Well, we're flying together.
We're flying together.
And also we'll wear these to work.
They're that nice. Have some class. Yeah, they're that nice. No, no, no, no, no. Wear a're flying together. We're flying together. And also we'll wear these to work, they're that nice.
Have some class. Yeah they're that nice. No no no no no. We're a three piece suit.
In the hopes you make an upgrade like mum and dad always think. Yeah yeah yeah.
No I don't. Wait so what are these track pants on? Everybody else's. Ah Mons.
Monz Royale. Great New Zealand brand. And there's Monz Royale a New Zealand brand. Yeah Wanaka.
I didn't know that. Yeah. Wanaka. I didn't know that.
Yeah.
I assume French.
And do you remember when we did the show
from the Wanaka studios,
the officers were just down the hallway.
I just assumed that was the importing officers.
What a full love ban.
Monzerreal sounds French.
It does, doesn't it?
It probably stands for something in French.
They are expensive because they're Merino.
Your cotton Merino blend.
But, oh my God. Organic cotton Merino.
The most comfortable track pants I've worn.
But I don't have a problem with you having the same.
But I'm wearing them on our next flight.
And you're not allowed to,
because then we'll look like brother and sister.
That'd be weird.
Did you?
Yeah.
It's Latin for mountain, mons.
Mons Royale means like royal mountain.
Is that Latin for mountain?
So the mons pubis.
Is the mountain.
The pubic pub.
Pub mountain. Well aren't we learning something every day? Pubis. Is the mountain. Is the mountain. The pubic mountain.
Well aren't we learning something every day?

Because I'm going back to work after maternity leave.
Well done on having a child.
Well done, yeah well done. Congratulations.
Now are you feeling like you don't want to go back to work and that's why you need to be pumped up
or you're like nervous
because you've been out of it for a while?
Both.
I've realised I don't actually enjoy my job anymore.
Oh God.
Nobody likes working, do they?
I mean, we've got a great job, but we're pretty rare.
Can I ask what you do?
What's your industry?
I'm a manager in a logistics company.
Okay, you are sounding uninspired.
You know what I mean?
You're sounding like you don't want to go
to this managerial job.
And no more pressure should be added to the situation,
but we need you back.
Because I'll tell you what,
the logistics have not been logisticised in your absence.
When you've been in your absence, it's absolute.
It's absolutely, yeah.
Have you seen, like everything's gone to shit in the last,
how long were you off with maternity leave?
Like a year? It'll be 10 months. 10 months, have you seen the state of the economy to shit in the last, how long were you off with maternity leave? Like a year?
It'll be 10 months.
10 months, yeah.
Have you seen the state of the economy?
Like the whole place has fallen to bits
and we can put it down to the fact that you stepped back,
you took your fill of the gas.
There's just been a pile of parcels in your absence
that nobody's delivered.
And then the flow on effects
has just affected every aspect of the country.
So many times during your mat leave, Kate,
people were like, bam, we need Kate.
Where's Kate? Where's Kate?
We miss Kate, we miss her? She's off doing her thing.
Like, you're going to walk in, we're hyping you up.
You're going to walk in and the whole office is going to go,
oh, thank God.
Yeah.
Thank God Kate has been.
Have you heard of a scapegoat?
Well, I'd like to introduce you to the term Kate goat.
Kate goat.
You are the goat.
You know, we need you back.
It's not like you're looking for someone to blame.
It's that we need the goat, the greatest of all time,
back behind logistics.
Because when you said that, it made it sound like
they were blaming Kate for everything
while she was on mat.
That would be a scapegoat.
But this is Kate Goat.
This is saying we need the goat back.
And you know what?
Kate can also have a little secret
while you're back at work.
Just in a head bit.
No, no, no, no, no.
Just be thinking of like,
what might you else do?
You know what I mean?
Like steal some stationery. You can do that again. No, no, no, no. I be thinking of like, what might you else do? You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like steal some stationery.
You can do that again.
No, no, no, I mean like to-
I think she was trying to find her passion again.
Get a passion for a job and be like,
maybe you wanna go do something else.
Easiest time to get a job is when you're already
having a job.
Already have a job.
Yeah.
I did some diplomas while I've been off.
I told you!
What is this?
Guys!
Are you kidding me?
This is just a stepping stone for Kate.
I can feel great things in your future.
I'm the boss, isn't it, mister?
Okay, Kate, you have a great Thursday back, Kate.
We're proud of you, Mum.
I think sufficiently hyped there.
Let's go, Auntie Gemma.
Good morning, Gemma.
Good morning.
Why do you need to be hyped up?
I have a job interview tomorrow.
I wouldn't even...
I wouldn't worry about it,
because the job's already yours.
Gemma.
I hope so.
Gemma, it does not sound like job and the first part of the word for nothing.
Gemma, is this a job that you like desperately want?
Like it's a job that's really exciting for you?
Yes, it is.
Yeah, I'm going into a new career field.
So I'm hoping to get my foot in the door there.
Oh my god, Gemma, you've already killed it by making the decision to switch and go,
I'm going to do something new and exciting.
You cannot, you know, all the experience won't make up for a passion for an industry.
Do you know how many people just sit in the same job, not loving it,
and then they just stay there until they die?
Yeah. So many. And Gemma said, no,
I'm going to go seek something else.
And that energy is not going gonna be ignored in that interview.
No way.
What are we wearing in this interview?
Is this new job gonna have lots of stationary to steal?
Stop telling people to steal stationary, please.
Sorry, sorry.
Because now I'm looking at the pens around you
and I'm just assuming you've stolen them.
I've stolen a lot of them.
Gemma, have you got a good fit?
That's what I'm gonna do today.
How's your man?
Sort that out.
Do you know what I reckon, Gemma? Blazer. I don't know the industry, blazer. It's feeling Thought that out. Do you know what I reckon Gemma?
Blazer.
I don't know the industry, blazer.
It's spelling blazer in the gym.
Because when I wear a blazer, I feel boss.
Shoulder pads.
Yep, good shoulder pads.
Gemma, can I give you a hint?
I've done this once and it worked a treat.
So before you get there early, right,
and you're like, can I use the bathroom?
Take yourself some headphones, go into the bathroom.
Oh, you shouldn't be that in there.
Shut the cubicle, no, don't do a dump.
Although if you're nervous, get that out. Because you don't want that hitting you halfway through. Oh, you shouldn't do that in bed. Shut the cubicle. No, don't do a dump. Although, if you're nervous, get that out.
Get that out by hand.
Because you don't want that hitting you halfway through.
Yes, true.
So then what you do is you put your headphones on, you find the Superman theme song.
Oh, okay.
And you put that on and you stand in the Superman pose, hands on the hips, just like chin up,
like chest out, big breath.
Pretty proud.
And you like breathe that energy for a few minutes and then you go out there and you
smash that interview.
Oh, give that a go.
You smash it right in the face. And can you touch base with us, Gemma? We want to know how it goes, if you get the job or not. Breathe that energy for a few minutes and then you go out there and you smash that interview. Oh, give that a go.
You smash it right in the face.
And can you touch base with us Gemma, we want to know how it goes if you get the job or not.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Can I say long time listener, first time caller.
Oh absolutely.
You may as well ring the bell.
You may.
We'll ring the bell.

What laws are we doing for this exam?
It's all about the Resource Management Act
and it's worth 50% of my grade.
Oh, that's nice.
Are we pro or anti resource management?
As the law, you're sort of like neutral and just go.
I mean we are learning a lot about what it's going to turn into so I mean we've got told to use our imagination in the exam. So you sound like an imaginative creative person.
How prepared do you feel on a scale of one to ten?
Probably like a six or a 7.
This is the thing that I do when I perform and I think it could help you as you go into the exam.
You've got to remind yourself that the work is already done and then you've got to like just let it go.
And you've got to trust yourself.
You've got to walk in there and be like Zoe, I trust that I've done the mahi and now I'm just going to deliver it and it's done.
Don't like go in there and be like panicking and ugh if you've done the work you're not a six if you
think you're a six you're already an eight tomorrow you're a ten you're gonna
nail it. Dumb. Oh, gold!
Gold!
Gold with a serif.

Trust yourself.
You've done the work.
Yep.
Fantastic.
Thank you.
Let's read some messages out just to finish.
Oh.
What do you need pumped up for?
I've used some extra energy today.
Our cat got put down yesterday.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
The only thing that's going to fix that other than a good old pipe up is another cat.
But give it a bit of space.
Nah, I would just tread lightly because we had two good cats and then the latest cats are dud.
Oh yeah, that's a dud cat.
That's because you didn't, you, what?
You got a mangy one.
Well, I think the other two were mangy rescue cats as well.
Well, I've rescued mine, you've just gotta do a match test.
You've gotta leave space.
Maybe it was yesterday.
Don't feel like you need to be hyped up today
and be happy.
No, take the time to go through.
You gotta go through all the processes, right?
It's human to feel the emotions.
You do have to grieve the cat.
You gotta grieve the cat.
So remember we had a little ceremony for Karen
in your back garden.
Yes, that's correct.
That was lovely in the help the grieving process.
Of course it does.
Let yourself grieve, give yourself some time.
I found the fellow griever who was there, Andy Sloose,
told us a story how he used to work at the meatworks,
it really lightened the mood.
Did he do a bit of comedy work today?
He was really working the crowd.
He was really working the crowd.
When I was digging a hole under a tree
and hitting a lot of roots.
Yeah.
The whole thing was great.
But just remember the good times you had with your cat.
Yeah, not the tree roots as you're digging the hold of area.
Oh my God, summer messages, it's my last day in my 20s,
I need some pumping up for the big 30s.
Dude, it's so much better.
It's so much better.
Dude, way better.
Like, you're flourishing, aren't you?
I literally am like, hotter, happier than I've ever been in my life.
The 30s are top tier.
The 30s is way better, and then I hear the 40s is even better,
so don't even worry about it.
Well, they are what you make of it,
and if you go into it with a poor attitude, you might drag that in.
So I'm just saying,
wipe your feet on the doormat of the 20s,
take those boots off and get inside some slippery socks
and let slip slide through.
I reckon 30s is the best day.
30s was, I also,
I wonder if this person is female or male,
but if they're female,
look forward to getting rid of a lot
of the body hangups you have.
30s, you start to realise that actually
it's more important size.
Yeah, you get naked in front of a mirror.
Yeah! Have a prod in a pipe. Have, you get naked in front of a mirror. Yeah!
Have a pride.
Have a pride in a park.
Have a pride.
That's right.
Do it.
Yeah.
Do it.
Well, it's important when you celebrate the human body.
In front of a mirror is no better way to do it.
Yes.
Um.
Someone just messages in saying,
fawn it, I'm happy to take your cat off your hands.
No, it's not me.
And love it more than anything.
No, do it, it's the whole thing, the cat.
You hate that cat.
Get rid of it.
I don't hate him, he's just not a very good cat. He doesn't like to be patted and he runs and he goes crazy. He's just not a very good cat.
He doesn't like to be patted and he runs and he goes crazy.
He's just not a super great cat.
Well, they're going to take it off your hands.
And then you don't have to pay for cat food.
That's a great point, actually.
I've got an audition for my first runway show today.
Could be, could do with some high plays on that.
Well, Hayley, you're a model. What are some tips?
Thank you.
What I do is one, I want to keep really really hydrated so I've got a nice clear head.
Yes. I hope you've had sleep but if you haven't that's too late don't worry about it. Yeah and
remember you've been walking since you were like 18 months old. Also if you're going for a runway
casting today chances are you already have an agent. Agents don't put mingers on their books.
Yeah. So you're kind of already guaranteed hot. That's. Fletcher's been dropped by Outspoken.
Yeah. Outspoken.
It was so ugly they wouldn't even put him up and speaking to him.
Liz called me and said you're too ugly. Sorry you're gone.
We've actually just done our latest research and you're too much for me.
Talent for days.
But.
It's weird though because you and your model friend from school, you did all those gigs.
Stella Maxwell.
Yeah and then she was a Victoria's Secret model. She was a Victoria's Secret model. from school, you did all those gigs. Stella Maxwell. Yeah and then she wasn't a Victoria's Secret model.
She's a Victoria's Secret model.
What happened to you?
I'm on Fletchboard and Hayley.
Radio.
Okay.
The audio medium.
I've just got an email press release from your agency Auckland Actors.
You've been released from Contractors.
Have I been released from Bing a Binger?
Yeah.
Oh no!
So, I mean we don't like to do this on this part of the show where we're plumbing a bit
of light but it seems we're blowing out other people's
candles to make that catwalk model's candle glow brighter.
Heavy to do it. Heavy to do it.
We're live for your audition today, hot model. The best one in Haley. Fact of the Day, Day, Day, Day, Day. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do covering gummy bears. Oh yum. We should have organised to have a treat each one. Have that treat.
Like have that treat.
Yeah.
Although those gummy bears,
some of them will rip right through.
If you eat too many of the sugar-free ones.
Like a laxative effect.
All the ones with sugar-free ones.
They'll tear you up.
You're stomach's like, eww.
So Haribo is the most famous and the original gummy bears.
In 1920, Hans Riegel Sr. founded Haribo in Bonn, Germany. And you might be thinking, his name's Riegel. How did he come Regel senior founded Haribo in Bonn Germany
and you might be thinking his name is Regel how did he come up with the name
Haribo it's a mashup of his name Hans HA that's the HA part Regel RI and Bonn in
Germany whereas from the first two letters of each of those words right
Hans Regel of Bonn gives you Haribo and that's why it's called Haribo. Haribo is legit.
They just in the last week
recalled a batch of gummies in the, was it the Netherlands? Yeah because they had weed in them
so I don't know and do they make weed gummies? Do Haribo make them? I don't know Haribo make them.
Maybe the factory where they make them. They also make the weed gummies. Yeah so marijuana Haribo gummies went out
in parts of the Netherlands.
They've had to recall all of them.
I tell you what, the kids after the birthday party
slept like little angels.
Yeah, tell you what, man, that was a great night.
Little beauties.
Well in 1922, after he'd been making hard candies
for a little bit, he made a tall, slim,
fruit-flavoured gummy bear inspired by how popular
dancing bears were at German festivals. Did you know the Germans loved the dancing bear?
Yes, I did know that yes
That was news to me
They were the
What they loved their dancing bears?
And why you've kept a secret from us. I sort of feel like well that wasn't like as well known as your sort of
Do you know about the Cuckoo Clocks?
The Cuckoo Clocks The Cuckoo Clocks? The Cuckoo Clocks.
The Cuckoo Clocks.
Yeah, they love those too.
We love Cuckoo Clocks.
We know Cuckoo Clocks as a very well known name.
I mean, I keep talking about German love.
It's Cuckoo Clock.
Yeah, wait. Not Cuckoo.
Cuckoo, cuckoo. It's not like cuckoo, cuckoo.
No, it comes out as like cuckoo.
No, it's not. It goes cuckoo, cuckoo. No, it comes out like cuckoo. No, it says cuckoo.
Cuckoo clock.
It's named after the cuckoo bird.
Of the cuckoo bird.
Potato potato.
Well no, those are two different things.
Who have you ever met that ever said would you like some potato chips?
Very cool.
Thank you.
Nally frittato chips.
Yeah.
Nally frittato chips.
I'm like a chip.
Only crunch away.
The bag is half empty.
They say yes for protection.
Cuckoo!
So cuckoo!
In 2022, after making hard candies, he invented the dancing bears.
And they straight away were a smash.
His wife used to deliver them via bicycle and they sold for tour bears offending.
And they were immediate hit.
In 1960, the shape of the slim dancing bear changed.
Wait a second! You've missed the war.
So the war wasn't great for them.
Production nearly halted during World War II due to German stuff.
And as the World War II ended, Hans Senioria died and his sons Paul and Hans Jr.
rebuilt the company afterwards.
Right.
They launched into the US in 1982.
But I wanted to tell you that when they went from a long,
cause they were a long, skinny dancing bear.
Yep.
And in 1960, they went to a squatty,
a little gummy bear that we're familiar with.
Shrinkflation.
Shrinkflation and renamed as Gold Bears.
Cause you'll know that they're not even all gold but they are called Gold
Beers. Yeah right. Yeah. So they trademarked that and today they produce 100
million Gold Beers daily which would wrap around the world ten
times in over a year. Daily? So daily? Over the year it would wrap. So 3.6 billion over the
course of a year and that would wrap around wrap. So 3.6 billion over the course of a year
and that would wrap around the world 10 times.
Imagine if the gummy bears holding hands.
Isn't that it?
Isn't it insane that they haven't been
bought out over the years by like Mars
or any of the massive companies?
No, they're still, I believe, independent.
They're still owned by the regal family.
Yeah.
Isn't that insane?
Now on its third generation.
God, when they, when the, you know,
this grandson or something decides to sell, he's gonna make a pretty penny.
Yeah. This is a problem if it gets too far down the line and it keeps spreading to more and more families.
That's right. Dad, I don't want to make gummy bears. I don't want to be a candy boy, I want to be a ballerina daddy.
Let me dance, father, like the bears, we paste the gummies off.
The world's largest gummy bear, they made it in Germany in 2014, 512 kilograms.
That's a massive one.
Yeah, that's, I don't wanna say fat, but it's heavy.
It's a very fat, it's a fat little bear.
So today's fact of the day is that Haribo bears
the inventor of the gummy bear.
It's called Haribo because of Hans Regel of Bonn,
the first two letters of each name.
Oh, fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do.
Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Hayley.
Sometimes in life you just need a little win,
you know, a little pick me up, a little win.
And I've got a bit of a collection of Doc Martens
and I know I love them.
I've always worn them since I was a teenage goth.
Timeless classic.
Yeah, 22 years I've been wearing their shirt.
Oh my God, that's how much time has passed.
Anyway, 22 years I've been wearing Doc Martens.
So when I see a good pair, I always try to grab them. And I was on Trade Me looking for not Doc Martens,
but I always have a little look and I found a brand new unworn pair in the box of Doc
Martens suede loafers with a buckle. I paid $80 for them. Just saw them online, $360.
And they're brand new.
So somebody bought those or they were a gift
and they were like, I can't wait to wear these.
And then they just-
Well, you just sort of go,
I don't know how to style them
or they just sit in the wardrobe,
maybe doing a wardrobe clear out
and it's time to get red.
They definitely look like a sort of shoe.
Someone would've worn them and I'm gonna rock those
and then put them on and be like, not for me.
Yeah, they're a decision.
But that's why you try them on in the store.
I mean, you're rocking them.
I'm rocking them, but I knew I would.
Here's a guy who doesn't live with women.
Carry on though, carry on with your thoughts
on trying something on the store rather than
just buying it online and just being like,
oh, what the hell.
And then never returning it,
because you're like, oh, I'll just take it to the post.
We did this for Silly Little Pole last week.
We asked how many items of clothing
are in your wardrobe that are unworn.
And seven, was it six or seven plus?
Was like 30%?
Very popular, yeah.
Very popular response.
We don't want to talk about that.
I want us to celebrate those massive, those wins,
those steals that you got from Marketplace or Trade Me
or like an op shop even, that you were like,
I cannot believe I got this.
Yeah, because especially Trade Me, the auctions,
it's like legal, right?
Yeah, you have to. You have a reserve,
but it might not get any response.
And then you swoop in, last minute before it closes,
and you get an absolute steal.
Big fat swoop. I follow so many,
more in the UK or America,
people that go into vintage stores, find a jacket,
and they're like, this looks pretty cool,
look online on eBay or whatever,
and it's worth thousands or like a lot of money.
Because it's like designer.
Some designer or some kind of rare thing.
Wow.
I can't believe those wins where you're like,
you're not gonna believe, you're not gonna believe
the window I picked up from trademark.
Okay, because my mother always said
if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
But it's not, look at these shoes.
But these are the exceptions.
Look at these shoes, yeah.
I literally look incredible today, I live in these.
Have you got an absolute steal online,
maybe from someone that sold something
without even using it, or you got a really good price,
whatever it was, 0800 dials.m is the number,
get your call, text in, 9696,
already a couple of texts coming in.
What was your absolute steal from Marketplace or TradeMe?
We want to know from you right now,
when you've swooped in on TradeMe or Marketplace
and picked up an absolute bargain.
Holy moly.
Something brand new or for an absolutely ridiculous price.
Maybe the people didn't know what it was worth.
You got your brand new Doc Martens for like-
For a quarter of the price.
Yeah.
Love them by the way, but so many amazing messages.
And as a bargain hunter and shopper,
I'm like frothing this.
Courtney, what did you get for a bargain?
Oh my God, okay.
So there's this Facebook group in Tauranga
and it's like the dollar reserve page.
And I was going through it and this girl was selling
a Taylor Swift VIP stadium, reputation stadium toolbox.
And I scored it for $16.
And then I checked them on eBay and they go for thousands.
I got two of them.
Oh my God, really?
Yeah, I was shocked.
I like Google, like snapped it and then searched it on Google
and then looked at eBay.
I think the most recent one went for two and a half grand.
Is that New Zealand or American?
Yeah, no, New Zealand.
Wow, are you gonna, oh my God, you need to list that.
For one, you need to sell that.
No, no, no, no, keeping it, it's in the millions.
We got sent them, we got sent them,
and you were like, I don't want that.
And I was like, can I give it to the girls?
I threw away two and a half thousand dollars.
You gave it to me, you gave it to me,
and I gave it to Indy.
I threw away two and a half thousand dollars.
For these girls. They're amazing. I'm like showing Indy. I threw away two and a half thousand dollars! For these girls!
They're amazing.
I've like shown my children, which are teenage boys and my husband, I made them sit through
and I showed them everything that was in the box.
As I recall they had a little video screen in the box.
Can you give me that back?
No, you can't do that.
You can't take back a gift.
Oh, that's...
Wow, that's unbelievable.
Go for you.
I'm generous.
Oh wait, Courtney, did you... So you bought it for cheap are you gonna resell it?
No no I'm gonna hold on to it to me like she's iconic she's not gonna go out of style and so in my head if I hold on to this for a good 20 years I reckon I'll be able to.
They said the same about Michael Jackson and Bill Cosby. So I'm just trying to make it tight. You've got all your Bill Cosby member-a-biliots. Boy, do I have a... Hey, hey, hey!
Thank you so much.
Courtney, thank you.
Sarah, what did you get for an absolute steal?
First of all, first I'm called a long-time listener.
Beautiful.
Yes, welcome to Sarah.
Welcome.
So I was perusing the Hoss First rack.
Yeah, it's something that I love to do on a Friday.
And I came across a jacket for 45 bucks.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.

And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket.
And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket. And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket. And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket. And I was like, oh, I'm going to get this jacket. And I was like, the Hoss First track.
It's something that I love to do on a Friday.
And I came across a jacket for $45.
It's a Burberry quilted jacket.
Shut up.
It retails for about $2,000.
Shut up.
Burberry coat for 45 bucks.
If you reckon like the old bird in the op shop
was just like, this is lovely, we'll go 45.
It's nice.
Oh it's a nice sort of taupe colour.
Yeah, that's beautiful.
Oh my gosh.
I know, they recognise it was a brand,
but probably not quite as elevated as it needed to be.
Yeah.
Do you wear it a lot?
A lot.
What, sorry?
It's got the leather colour, it's got the classic lining,
and it's so on trend.
Classy lady. Wow.
Okay, and so are you gonna-
Cause the op shops, sometimes op shops take the best. Yeah, they do take the best things in work. That's so on trend. Classy lady. Wow. Okay, and so are you gonna-
Cause op shops sometimes op shops take the best.
Yeah, they do take the best sometimes.
That's a nice one.
Good to get a win there over the op shop,
but did you-
Get that, you pipsqueak.
Sorry, not op shop, those fun races.
Those fun races.
Yeah, op shop.
What, are you gonna resell it
or are you just gonna keep it?
Absolutely not, I'm a clothing hoarder.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love to wear it and I love to show off that I got it for $45.
Wow, love that Sarah. Some messages in? I bought a vintage Christian Dior blazer for $12 at an up shop.
So my engagement ring I got it for $95 got it valued at $5,000. Whoa! It's cursed though because it was
somebody else's engagement ring. It's got dead love wrapped in it. Yeah, the love is dead.
You're gonna get that thing saged.
Keep your texts coming in,
9696 0800 dials in those absolute bargains
from the op shop, trade me or marketplace.
We're talking about those bargains that you get
from an op shop or trade me or marketplace,
where I don't know,
maybe they don't know what they've got,
or they bought it brand new and they decide,
I just want to get rid of it.
Or it just like went under the radar.
I always keep an eye out for barbecues. He's got nine does he need another one? He better have ten.
You've actually got some steals haven't you?
Yeah, just by people buy an expensive charcoal barbecue and then they're like this is way harder.
Yeah, I don't actually know how to do this.
I just want rid of this thing and you get them so cheap sometimes. But again you only need one charcoal barbecue per household. I don't actually know how to do this. And I just want rid of this thing, and you get them so cheap sometimes.
But again, you only need one chunk of barbecue.
Nah, I don't reckon it's safe.
I don't reckon it's best to have seven.
Did you see this?
My aunt bought a pearl necklace
in Havelock North at a vintage store for $350.
What?
Valued, 15 grand.
That's a hell of a pearl necklace.
Whoa!
That's a pearl necklace.
That is, whoo!
So she kind of knew a thing about pill? Maybe.
Maybe she just saw them and thought. I've always wanted a pill necklace. Yeah, always
wanted one. I got a Phil and Ted's pram for $40. It was in such good condition. Is that
a fancy brand? Yeah, it's a good brand. You pay way more for prams than that. Do you think
it's because the parents got rid of the kids and they're like, oh, just get rid of it?
You'd think that they'd have other parent friends, eh?
But I suppose.
Maybe they bought a single fill and teds
and then had twins.
Oh, they only had another one.
Yeah, another fill and teds.
And they were so busy with the twins.
You can just sell a tape or, um,
Yeah, you can tape a baby on.
You can tape a kid to the top.
I know, I was seeing cable tie another buggy
to the side of it.
Oh, you could do that.
Or get some fuel roof racks for your fill and tits.
Yeah, okay.
Got a Gary Nash glass vase for $15 at an op shop
in Wahakia, darling.

I'm sorry, look at Gary Nash.
Gary Nash knows his stuff, right up your alice brow.
Darling.
What do I look like Gary Nash?
No, you'd hate Gary Nash.
No, you wouldn't like a Gary Nash, darling.
That's a bit of Hailey Sproul, you'd see that in a Hailey Sprout of hers.
I want to say that one you've just showed me is costly.
That's no darling Gary Nash.
I was trying to buy champagne glasses that retail for $120 a glass.
Facebook marketplace sold me two for $10 each.
And then they said I've got four more if you want it.
So I got six for $ dollars versus six for seven hundred and
something. Well so I wonder how much of this stuff is stolen. I always think that.
I always get power tools stolen the box on Market Blast. I'm like stolen. Oh got a
coat last week from the Sellys paid 20 bucks for it turns out the original
price was 1200 Italian cashmere. Oh what? Similar one selling on eBay for 350,
but I gave it to my sister
because she looks so fab in it.
I got a brand new Swandro Bush shirt
from the Op Shop for two bucks.
Now those things are like a few hundred.
I don't understand Op Shop pricing,
because sometimes, especially in Auckland,
main senders taking the person.
Auckland is taking the pay man.
But then you go in and you get a Swandro for two dollars.
Everybody knows they're expensive.
What?
Oh my god, top text.

Got it valued at 67,000 dollars
and then sold it and used that money to buy our house.
