from the ZM Podcast Network. This is... Fleshhorn and Haley's Big Pod. Thanks to animates, making happy happen for pets. Fletch Fawn and Haley, happy first day of winter, everybody. It's what happened.

I think we just skipped autumn and we just started straight at winter. Yeah, winter! I knew people yesterday with fires on in Christchurch, in the South Island. That is insanity. Oh, yeah. There is a place right now in New Zealand

that is minus 2.1 degrees. It is the 3rd of March. What? I'm cold. I've like forgotten how to do cold. Well, Auckland. So I didn't bring a jumper. Auckland right now, 9.3, but feels like 7.

Yeah. Christch, feeling like 5 at the moment, with 8 degrees. Yesterday, Frina Wellington had the weather report that it was 11 but felt like negative 1. Yeah, currently 8.2, but it feels like 4. It's the feels like. It's the feels like that gets you. Yeah.

It feels like that gets you. So, yeah. Jumper. Happy first day of winter, everybody. That's so great because I was sort of waiting for the first day of summer to arrive. Ah, well, also very soon, can we talk about Jim Carrey and this whole face situation? And there's conspiracies.

Yeah. And now someone's come up being like, twi-z-eye. Yeah. The whole thing's just bizarre. And if you haven't seen it, I'll give you all the details. Top six as well. Yeah, there's been a real reckoning in the fact that the first three seconds of any TikTok ad has to pretty much say the product because that's all that people are getting before they flick it.

Yeah. Through to the next one. That's the thing when you're flicking through. If it doesn't get your attention, you're on to the next thing, right? So I've written some three second ads for some pretty big companies. And it's my pleasure to do so. He's a marketing genius. It really is.

It really is. Next on the show, Burger King in the US are trialing out something. Oh, yeah. Pineapple? No, something to do with their workers. Nothing to do with the burgers. The Fletchborn and Haley, Big Pod. Well, Burger King is testing.

This is only in the United States. Of America? Yeah, the company restaurant brands. They own Burger King, Popeyes and other brands. They're currently testing an open AI. Share up Popeyes. Man, you know what? I've only had it twice.

I still haven't had it. It has not let me down. It's slabs. Is it just chicken? Yeah, dude. But the chicken is... You know, when we go and see her massive duck up at Albany? Yeah.

We could go to Popeye's there and then go up to that long... Go up to Long Bay and you go to one of those slutty hot cross bonn donuts. And then go back to Albany Mall and hit the Clareb. It's bad. It's not right. We could do a little bit of Clurb. Yeah. You were spending way too much time there, honey.

At Albany Mall? Well, they are testing an open AI powered headset at 500 of their restaurants in the US. And basically the people will have headsets on. Welcome to Burger King. Get place your order when you're ready. Yes, and it'll be collecting data on everything. And there's a voice that will speak to you if you're working there as an employee. So if the drink machine's low on, I don't know.

Fanta. Fanta. It'll be like, there's low Fanta. But thank you, AI. No Fanta. If a customer uses a QR code to report like that there's poos all over the toilet. There's poos in the toilet. So they're using a QR code?

Well, they, the customer, you'd report it as a customer and say, like, other bathrooms, yeah. I haven't heard just walk out. To poo-a coach. We've got pooze in everywhere in it. Yeah. It'll also do, like, inventory and stuff and be, like, you're low on buns or whatever they get low on. You'll get a little heads in. But apparently, this is what people are talking about.

The system can also track when employees say keywords like, welcome, please and thank you. Oh, so tracking, like, your... Behavior as a, like, suit. Yeah. So if Haley was, I don't know, hung over and doing a shift and she was a bit bitchy. What are going to birdie king, what do you want? Yeah. And you didn't say, it would clock it.

There's poos in the toilet. Not today. You're low on fanta. No, you're low on fanta. Low buns. The only thing is with like, more poos, more poos. Oh, I quit. The only thing is like when you know you're being monitored, you'll adjust your behavior,

which is great because then you become a better. customer service. What you're saying is the key to behavior is constant monitoring from Big Brother. Yeah. I mean, our behavior is constantly monitored. It's recorded at every moment. It is, but it isn't.

But I was listening to an interesting podcast a few months ago. Forget who, where it was from. But it was basically like the poorest people will have to deal with this kind of monitoring. Like it's already happening with like Amazon and stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like already drivers in, you know, trucks are like having their faces monitored and are they looking or are they... Maybe well, the mega rich can go to Epstein Island and do whatever they want.

Never just seems to forget about it. Whatever the hell they want. And an Amazon employee takes five minutes too long on his break and he's gone. You're quite right, eh? Yeah. That's awful. It's pretty... Are you calling for a revolution? Are we rising?

But this is the thing like, already like, is it Microsoft Teams is changing this month or did they change at the end of the last month? like they're sharing your location as well. So, ugh. I hate all that stuff. I know, but it's only getting worse. And this is like why people are like, oh, now you're, you know, monitoring how many times I say thank you to a customer? A friend of mine had a tracker put in their company car.

Oh, wow. And it's, it's, I would be so, I don't know, I just don't like that. I'm like, it's kind of, I mean, it is your business where I am. If I, if my job is out about on the road. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But just that thing. make sure they're at the beach. You want to make sure they're at a client's house or a client's business. It's not your beeswax if I'm at the beach. It's high tide. Summer's nearly gone. I'm

making the most of it. You are the worst person I could imagine being tracked 24-7. Is my Mahi done? It will be. I'm just making the most of high-tile. Sometimes I'll open my fine friends to see how far away my daughter is from getting dropped off by the bus after school. And it'll be like, Haley's in Timbuck too. I'm like, where is she? I know. She's always in weird places, isn't she? She's always parts of Auckland. I'm just up to things. Haley's in Sandringham. It's like, what's business is Haley having in Sandring?

Packing up some taxidermy, probably. Hey, that's none of your business what I'm doing in Sandring. What are you doing in Sandringham? The Fletchborn and Haley, big pod. So Jim Carrey was honoured at the 51st Caesar Awards in Paris for his like career, basically. Long career, services to the arts, that kind of thing. And it got people talking because when he turned up he had a different. face.

Like, real different. How old is he now? 63. 64? Yeah. Yeah. So, yes, your face does look different, for sure. But if you're a Hollywood star, it probably looks different, not because of aging, but because

of what you've done to it with a surgeon. He looks like he's had some kind of cheek filler. The shape of his eyes is different, rounder, rather than, like, almond shaped. in some images it looks like his eyes are a completely different colour Right He also was speaking slightly differently

I know he was nervous And he did his speech Entirely in French And he'd like worked on it for months He's French Canadian He is Canadian right So he would Have been out French as part of it

But he didn't He's not like confident in French So he the guy who Like runs the Caesar Awards Was you know saying Oh he was very nervous He was working really hard on To get the pronounce

of everything like this. But everyone's like, that's not Jim Carrey. Like, what are we going to, how are we got to call this out? And now the internet is like rife with conspiracy theories that it was someone wearing a mask. There was a... Which would be hilarious considering he was the star of the mask. The mask.

Yeah, have you seen the memes of like him with the mask? But it's just this new odd face. So there was a makeup artist and drag queen called Alexis Stone who then fielded it a bit by putting a photo of a prosthetic kind of rubbery face and saying Alexa Stone as Jim Carrey in Paris. So the runner of the Caesar Awards

has come out saying this is a non-issue, like it was him. He came with all of his family and his daughters. Yeah, but it hasn't stopped the internet saying that it wasn't someone dressed as him. Oh, the conspiracy theory, everyone's just like absolutely no way. Like how do you change eye colour?

I think he's just had, which is odd for Jim Carrey. I wouldn't have anticipated he was someone who would get plastic surgery. Especially because his face is what kind of made him so famous. It's a tool. Yeah, and he's so kind of anti-Hollywood. Carrie's confirmed it was him who attended the award ceremony where he received the honorary Caesar. Variety also confirmed with the Caesar Awards that he accepted the honour.

Yeah, it's... But what has happened? Imagine the whole world. talking about your face. I know. And like there's a, you know, number of theories like, you know, he's aging. He clearly had some makeup on that wasn't the right colour. Like it was quite orangey.

Yeah, right. They said lighting could be an issue. You know, there's lots of explanations. But I think the most exciting one is that it's not him. Having turned 44, I was getting the article lots about how there's two ages that you age. Yes. 44 and 60. So, maybe there's, no.

He's kind of gone past that 60 thing. Maybe he's just aging. Yeah. But there's like footage of him talking maybe only like one or two years ago. And his face is the face that we know. It's aging. Like it's older for sure. How do you change?

When did that last? I mean, it's bad enough aging. But when you're a celebrity and you age in front of the world. Totally. And then you don't look like you did, you know, in your prime. Like that must just be the most ruthless thing in the world Oh totally You would never go online

No you wouldn't And a lot of celebrities don't For this very reason They don't even have phones some of them Yeah I think it's just perhaps He's had a small allergic reaction To something he's eaten before Small selfish shellfish allergy

Yeah He's aging and he's just got bad makeup on I don't think Case close I don't think this was a clone or a actor. Yeah, drag quick. The ZDM Podcast Network. From the unmoderated comment section, this is the top six.

You see, what we saw there was a great example of a liner or an ad. Done it in three seconds. Yeah, well, that's... It did it really well. All the time people have these days.

The Z&M Podcast Network. Play Zat M's Fletchhorn and Haley. We have just had a little teaser drop from the one, the only, Harry Stiles. See if you can figure it out. There's a little music from him there. Okay. Quite instrumental. Oh, a song is building.

The announcement's coming. Okay. It's coming. Keep listening. All that thing. A logo. A sonic ID. Yeah.

So he's doing Netflix. Very famous Sonic ID. So his new album comes out Friday. On Sunday, there will be a live streaming of him playing the album. Not a live streaming, sorry. Like he's recording it on the Friday after the album comes out. Sunday, that'll be streaming from Netflix. Oh, wow.

Yeah. Okay. So it's literally, quick turnaround. He records this whole show in Manchester, co-op arena in Manchester. So is that for the, will the public be there as well? Yeah, I imagine getting a ticket to that. It'll be like a listening party directly with him.

Amazing. He's playing his whole new album, Kiss all the time, disco occasionally, which, yeah, is out Friday. And then it's going to be be beamed worldwide on Sunday. Do we know how much Netflix paid for that? Because that would have, cost them a fortune surely.

Like, I don't know. There's no reports. No, of how much they pay. You're not going to find that out, really, are you? Full Well Entertainment's producing the show. No, I can't see how much it is. He's definitely recording it after the album releases on Friday. No, this would be in the, if it's on Netflix, it'll be in the bag already.

Oh, you think? No, that's a live show on Friday. Oh, really? Yeah. And they're going to turn it around that quickly. Yeah. I mean, it's just a concert, right? That guy that climbed the skyscraper,

that wasn't live, eh? Because what if he'd fallen? Yeah. I suppose that was live-esque. It would have been cool if it was live, like with the album drop. But no, it's a concert. So people had to,

producer Carwin, you're the biggest Harry Stiles fan, second two being the biggest Taylor Swift fan. Oh my gosh, yeah, what an honour. So you said people had to request tickets. Yeah, so we all got sent out a personal email from Harry. Again, I just know. Again, I think you guys are on a mailing list.

No, no, no, no. And it was like, do you want to come along to this one night only special request tickets? And then I did see, obviously, I didn't apply. It's international. It's in Manchester. But some people were having to volunteer. So you had to, like, click through to some of the charities that he had suggested. And you would go and volunteer and they got you, like, points almost.

Wow. So you couldn't just buy the tickets. No. I think some might have been for sale. But it was mostly request. Do you have cleaned up some roadside, like, trash to go see Harry Stiles? I would clean up trash just because I care about the planet Fletch. I pick up, I pick up a reward to pick up, like the planet's screwed, like.

Yeah, Harry Styles is the reward. Yeah, that's true. Okay, well, so Netflix. Netflix. So, but I see, Carwin, you've sent the date Sunday 8 a.m., but this is Sunday in the UK, so it would be Monday 8 a.m.? No, no, no, that's, Carwin's done the work for you there. 8 a.m. New Zealand Sunday morning.

7pm GMT. What a little treat. Like waking up and watching the All Blacks play, but you watch Harry Stiles and said much more fun. But 7pm GMT on Sunday. No, no, no. So it's on Saturday. Wait, we're Pacific time.

I've done the conversion, and it is New Zealand Sunday 8 a.m. Love this. How fun. Which isn't Greenwich Mean Time. GMT. No web plus 12, aren't we? We're Pacific standard time.

Are we at PMS? Yeah. No, we're not PMS. Yeah. That's, but they get a little moody. PST. PST. Yeah.

Well, there you go. PTSD. Sunday, PTSD. Sunday morning. Play Z-Ns. Flash morning, Haley. Well, the world is seemingly in the midst of World War III and imploding.

With, yeah, more attacks overnight. Missiles. It's just so weird to see. Like, I mean, we just live in the social media. age now where you see it all. You see missile defense systems and like fighter jets and explosions and it's just insane. I don't want to step

on anybody's toes and I'm certainly no expert in commenting on this political quagmire but those anti-air those anti-missile systems are pretty cool. But when you see this missile and then this thing goes sort of out of context call I guess. Adult yeah yeah yeah. Adult

fireworks. Yeah. Wow multi-billion dollar Way more expensive than a boom box. Except loads of people are dying, sadly. Because I tend to keep my eye off the news on the weekends. You know, like I just sort of tune out. I find it all too much, too. Yeah, it's too much.

And then on the Sunday, I jumped into a bean bag with a little Hugo Spritz. And I was like, let me have it. But look at what's happening in the world. I was like, the hell? Is that when we got a message from you on the group chat? Like, what is going on? Hang on a second. Are we...

At work tomorrow? So a lot of flights have been delayed. A lot of Kiwis have been affected, especially Emirates in Dubai. They shut down their airspace for a while. Apparently they've opened up some flights to let passengers out because they, I mean, they deal with like tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of passengers a day. Yeah, one of the world's busiest airport.

We looked yesterday, the busiest day was Jan 3rd. It was 300,000 people in the day. Oh, my God. Yeah, that is just Dubai airport alone. So every four days you're knocking over a mill. Qatar and Doha also pausing flights as well. I mean it's pronounced guitar. A low guitar.

Named after the instrument. Yeah, yeah, six-string guitar. And I saw a travel agent in the news yesterday saying if you do have a flight coming up, like say in the next few weeks or months, don't cancel it yet. Let them cancel it because then you get your money back. Yeah, we had this last year, remember, we were flying through Doha and they were, the airport got attacked. Yeah, no, it was a, the military base was attacked in Qatar.

Yeah, yeah. So wait for them to do it. So if you do have flights, maybe just kind of hold off. It is funny, like, it's not funny, but like this often happens with travellers, which is like we're so aware of the bigger impact of stuff like this happening, but am I going to be able to get to Rome? You know, because I really want a pizza. You know, like, that's our immediate thought is like,

is this going to screw up. Is this going to screw up my European summer? This is what I wanted to talk about. Like, there are people currently, like, in airports just like hunkering down. Yeah. Because like there are explosions going on over their head. It's like they get caught in storms. Yes.

Or like, you know, disasters or something that happens overseas. Oh, political unrest. Yeah. Everything. When did you holiday in the middle of chaos? Like you just were innocently in a country or somewhere. Yeah. And then something crazy happened.

My parents were in Greece when the economy like absolutely crashed. It was like 10 years ago. It would be great for tourists, right? Yeah. It was way longer than two years. Because we went not too long after. It was 2010. when they were picking up from.

I remember we saw like bullet holes and windows and tear gas and stuff. And they couldn't get, they had no money because they couldn't get out cash from the ATMs. Yeah. So you're just in Greece like, how do I access my money? And there's lots of manky cats around really skinny cats and you're just like... I think that's just a general grease thing. Oh, okay. The cats weren't affected by the economy so much as they were just affected by the fact that they were just allowed to breed prolifically.

Right. Yeah, I think they're always hungry. But given that we're a nation of travellers, you always hear about like the... Remember that massive earthquake in Nepal? And they're all like, oh, there's 12 Kiwis there. Yeah. What the hell are you doing there? I know.

I mean, I know what you're doing there. You're going to see the amazing Nepal and just happen to be there at terrible timing. But Boxing Day tsunami was another one. Yes. Yeah. Any kind of major disaster. Okay, well, 0,800,000.

We'd love you to give us a call. Text through 9-6-96. When did you holiday in the middle of chaos? We want to know when you found yourself in the middle of chaos. Maybe you are traveling overseas and like a lot of people are now in the Middle East are just stuck in an airport because countries have decided to bomb each other. Or maybe there was, I don't know. Natural disaster, some fires.

And you're just on your OE or overseas and this happens. Some crazy stories coming in. I know. Dylan, whereabouts were you? I'm in Christchurch at the moment. How cold is it? Because I just saw the weather before it's bloody, It's freezing.

Mild 9 degrees. Yeah, right. Stiff nips. Stiff nips and a mild 9. Met service are saying feels like 5 clothing, 3 to 4 layers and stiff nips. And stiff nips.

Which you've just included the nips on the Mets service, which I'm all for. I've been petitioning it for years. Dylan, how many layers are you wearing? Probably about 3 at the moment. Yeah, says 3 to 4. 3 to 4. And a windproof layer as well, Dylan, please.

And in the nips stiff, Dylan, if I may ask, if that's another appropriate. Let me just check. Yeah. Yeah. That's a really hard. Sounds like you're in the car, though. Mine are.

I just saw yours warm, put through. Mine are. Dylan? What's that? Are you stiff? Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, that's how cold it is. Just nip-checking the nation.

Yeah, drive-same. Now, Dylan, whereabouts are you traveling when chaos ensued? I was on my way to Egypt for my 21st after I finished. Wow. Yeah. Now, Dylan, is it... What a fascinating destination for a 21st, Dylan? Is it true that the pyramids are smaller than you?

think? Underwhelming, yeah. Yeah, I've heard that. And they're right next to the city. Yeah, like you can see the city from the pyramids. It's filthy. It's filthy. So you're there.

You had a great time on your 21st. Money well spent. So you're there and what happens? So while I was flying there, the Arab Spring was kind of at its peak after Libya, kind of, you know, Cunnel Gadassi and that kind of thing happened. And then it spread over to Egypt. Sorry, if I could just ask.

What was Gaddafi's star sign? We did Google what Gaddafi star sign was yesterday. Gaddafi star sign. It really, it's a Taurus. It's giving big Pisces. It's given Taurus. He's a Gemini. Yeah, okay.

June 7, 1942. Wow, okay. That lines up, actually. Yeah, okay, sorry, Dylan. Anyway, the Pisces Gaddafi. No. No, Gemini Gaddafi. Yeah.

Starts this. Arab Spring, the uprising. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Where are you? in the air? Yeah, so I'm in the air and then we land and

the tour people that I was with they were like eight hours to get to the hotel because the roads were so clogged and there was like people everywhere and tanks and that kind of thing. Well, you were driving through an Arab Spring Uprising. When you're in a van do you give way to tanks or do tanks give way to you?

Oh, you just give way to the people because there was so many. It was hectic. I imagine the tanks have one of those stickers like the buses. Please let me I stop often. I'm speed limited. I'm GPS monitored to make sure I don't exceed the speed limit in my tank.

Wow, and so what happened, Dylan? Do you have to cut the trip short or? Yeah, so they cancelled pretty much everything. And then we spent three days in the airport, a bunch of New Zealanders and Australians. Including your 21st birthday? No, so about a week later I ended up getting drunk in Edinburgh instead. Oh, me. What a place to be drunk.

Yeah. Great place. Too drunk for an uprising up there. Yeah, it is. They're too hungry, a little too cold. They're too hung over to do an uprising. Streets are too narrow for tanks. Dylan,

Dylan, thank you. Natalia, good morning. We're about, did you end up in the midst of chaos? We're on South Mall Island, holidaying with a big family lot on a resort island. What is, where is that? North Queensland. North Queensland.

Oh, right. Oh, I'm looking. It looks low. Looks lovely from the photos. Oh, the wet Sundays. Okay, and then one of the cyclones came through? Yeah, category three came through, yes. Not bad.

Jeez, okay. And then what, you just had to hunker down on the resort kind of thing? Well, they evacuated a large portion of the people, but they basically, the weather got too bad, they ran out of boats, and some of us had to put our hands up to stay behind. Heroes. Heroes. You're a goddamn hero.

How did we just run around with all the staff, packing up the island, tying everything down, you name it, whatever it is they had. Wait, so you chipped in. You were like, now, this sounds to me. We had nothing else to do. Yeah, but this sounds to me like you should have got a 50% off next visit voucher. I would have been feed up cocktails, but that's just me.

No, they shut the bar. They shut the bar. Okay, I wouldn't have put my hand up to stay. I wouldn't have helped them pack up a goddamn thing until I was promised a long island ice tea at the end of it. Or we're bored up and stay in the bar. Now we're talking. Yeah.

Okay. And so did that kind of pass or ruin the holiday cut it short or? No, we decided. We got bored after a while and decided to go play golf in the rain and the winds.

Australia, show I love very much, there's a new groom. His name is Joel. He is ick personified And during the wedding His mother decided to get up And give a small speech I knew that I had a special soul

That I had to nurture and love so very tenderly He was always very close to me And to his childhood teddy And Joel would choose to stay home To lie on the couch with his games, food and teddy And not much has changed really today He still has his teddy and he still likes to lie on my lap and have me scratch his back.

That's mum, by the way. Did you hear someone in the crowd go, Ew. It was one of the previous contestants. Wow. Okay, so by the way. Also, you still have a teddy. I will just say you've still got Kwali.

Yes, I know, but I wouldn't bring him up at my wedding. So he also, during his... vows made a marriage joke and also made on the same episode a mawaf joke now look I'm laughing for sure

you're not married to him so yeah but he's giving it and then I found this article was a study done last year in the UK by the British Psychological Society about the ick and they did a study 42% of daters broke things off early with a partner after getting the ick

Is this him? Broke it off immediately. I'm just googled to see what he looks like. Yeah, and so he calls himself an ex-fat Uber driver. Because he was, you know, heavier and whatnot. He's spent five years. What does it say here?

He spent five years reinventing himself. Yeah. Is this the guy also that... Oh no, maybe that's a spoiler, actually. I won't say what I saw it. His wife hits him up about something she's found a video of him doing online. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's...

Spoilers. Spoilers. It's so hard. being so behind, eh? We're so behind. It's 2026, make the episodes the same day. I know, we talked to John Aiken about this at lunch when he took us, Gullies out for lunch.

What did he say? He was like also like, it's so weird that we're so behind. We get Love Island on the same day as the UK. Anyway, we'll work on it personally. But that's 46% of people would leave a partner because they get the ick. 966. Yes, I got them all. No, that's about Pokemon.

How bad is the ick, though? Like, because there might be a little egg where you're like, but they're so hot and you can overlook it and you're like, maybe don't do that again. But then you're trying to change someone, so maybe just learn to deal with it. I know, but what if you see their legs wading and water? You know, it's like you can only be so hot.

Are we not allowed as such an egg? Trinidding water is such an up. This, you know, when you're sort of wading like this and your little legs are motoring like this? I saw a one where a woman was on a date with a guy and he drank out of a glass and she could see his teeth through the bottom of the glass and he was like, yeah.

And she's like, I don't know if I'm going to get over there. It's over. I think the general vibe with the text machine is, no, you don't get over the ick. I mean, you've got to be pretty hot to, you know. How bad? Survivor Sockette reveal. Oh no.

Do you know what I mean? Like my house is a shoes off house. Shoes off. You feel them going, oh-oh. I wore a loafer. I actually throw out my sockets because they're not cool anymore. Yeah.

What if they take off the boat shoe or the loafer and there's no sock though? That's worse. That's going to stink. But when you take off your shoes and it's a boat shoe, I reckon. Leave them on and scram. No, I think you take off the boat shoe or loafer and take off the socket at the same time. Somebody said they saw a guy without a hat. What do you mean?

Like you two that they always wore a hat And then they took the hat off And suddenly they went out of the hat No they never This person's a simple short sentence They threw a guy without a hat And it was there wreck So all men have to wear hats all the time

Y'all, the wedding already happened. Y'all missed that. Well, you know, the other day they said she had on a gold band, and folks were wondering.

The wedding is over, sorry. Would you stop? Had on a gold band. So apparently now the rum is right That Zendaya and Tom are already married They did it quietly Like most things they do Yeah

Right there they actually manage to keep their private life Pretty private Have these rumours been around a while It's just that this was set on the red carpet It's set on the red carpet Because everyone Filled it again Yeah they've been wearing rings and whatnot

But they are yet to make comment And that's good from them It must be so hard being a major celebrity In keeping your private life private We struggle enough Whereas some celebrity would want to make money off of it and get the attention. Yeah, totally.

Because, yeah, I would, I find the reasoning fascinating. I find their reasoning completely understandable. Same. Not wanting a fast, their big deals. How they even kept it a secret this long is incredible. How'd they get guests there without paparazzi following them constantly? Or maybe they just keep it really small. But when people aren't celebrities, like, it's like, why?

Why do you secretly want to get married? It's so, so unusual. It's not what everybody is. but he does because you're used to your friends posting about their weddings for the next eight years. Yeah, yeah, because you pay a lot for those photos and I got shredded. So you've been 19 to leave that's the best I've ever looked.

Yeah. Yeah, it's legit. Okay, okay. And yeah, so we announced it to our family on April 1,000. Fool's Day. Oh, yeah. It's an April Fool. Now, how did they take that?

Because some people get, some family members get quite angry at that news. Oh, yeah. So, mother-in-law wasn't happy. I took it away from her. But she's all good now. Yeah. And everyone else was really happy because we had been together for like 13 years anyway. We've already got two kids.

About getting married and we just thought, oh, wow, we'll just do it. Silently. Yeah. Like, sometimes at a wedding or anything like that. So did you, did you alone? Or did you just do it? Oh, yeah, like, yeah. Right, okay.

And then the hassle-free? Yeah, cheap. Yeah. It was so cruisy. Like, it was just so nice to give our kids that moment as well. Yeah, and did you... Oh, sorry, where did you were like, too? Oh, we didn't go anywhere, like, special, but, well, special for us.

But we just did it at the Hamilton Gardens near the road. Oh, my God, it's so beautiful there. Yeah. Yeah. That is special. Do they charge you a bit more than the entrance fee? You don't tell them, either. Well, you don't tell them.

You don't tell the mother-in-law. You don't tell the gardeners. You don't tell the gardeners. to the person at the office. Wow, okay. Smuggle the camera. So I feel like they'd charge you more if they knew it was a wedding. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

A high ridge of sorts. At the HG. We didn't have to notify them. That was all. We don't have to use charges because it was just out of the actual garden type where the roses were in it. Lovely spot. Amazing, Lisa, thank you.

Cat, did you get secretly married? Cat. May have gone. Mow! Deron, good morning. Did you get secretly married? married? Yes.

Good morning. Good morning. So who did you tell nobody? So we told about three friends and then we told our parents overseas because they had to be live streamed but that was it. Even my kids didn't have any idea. Wow. So they weren't part of it.

We basically eloped at on my. my wife's birthday last year. Last November. And we kept it a secret. We didn't want everyone to really fuss over getting ready for a wedding and who's going to be the bridesmaid and groomsmen and all of that. So we invited everyone to a birthday party three weeks later. Yep.

And in order to get everyone there, I told them that I'm going to propose on the birthday party. at the first party. Wow. Lies on lies on lies at this point. And it wasn't a lie. It wasn't a lie. I actually proposed at the party. Everyone was out with the cameras.

But then the reaction from my wife was, okay, then let's just get married now because we have a friend who's a pastor and he was there. And he was in on the secret. Right. And he started officially. We're appreciating a ceremony and after we exchange our vows in front of everyone and before the ring exchange, we actually played the video clip of our... actual wedding.

...to do everyone by even further surprise. So you kind of had two weddings, really, if you did vows another time around. And were any of the family annoyed that they didn't get to go to the wedding? No, they were just shocked, but to be honest, my kids weren't. weren't extremely, I mean, they were surprised. They were shocked. But afterwards, they reflected and they said, oh, yeah, that's kind of a you thing. That's a you thing to do, Dad.

That's a good. I love that. Les Fas. Duran, thank you. Some more messages in. My wife and I chop it up the mountains in Queensland. Just asked the pilot a photographer and a celebrant. It's so good.

I told people two weeks later at the engagement party. A lot of people doing that, just getting it out of the way, taking the pressure off it, I guess. Love that. Somebody else said, if friend of mine had their wish, recently but at the wedding showed a video that they were already married a year earlier at a car wash a year earlier at a car wash at a car wash married at the car wash yeah that's i mean it's got a song it's right there my husband like when the foam goes all pink and the thing's going but as long as you remember to put the aerial down i mean it tears your ear off oh yeah

my husband and i eloped to rarotonga uh i was looking up accommodation for the trip we'd already plan an email my husband a link to weddings and rara and said or should we do this while we're there and he said yeah why not So that's how we did that. Yeah, my lot. That's what I'm doing. Yeah, great. A lot of just low-key people, just getting it done.

I like that. I can't relate in any which way to being low-key. No. I don't want to get married, but if I did, it would have to be fuss. Yeah, yeah. A real kerfuffle. I got secretly married seven years ago after being together for seven months, so I wouldn't get kicked out of the UK.

Figured we'd end up together anyway. We just had our real wedding a week or so ago, so I guess... Oh, that's nice. I guess we're all right. Do they let you, though, stay the... in the country when they're like, wait, you've only just met this person and now you're getting married? Yeah.

You just fudge it, don't you, and make it look like you've been together longer. Yeah, my friend did that. Secretly got married overseas to stay overseas. Never told her family or anything until like a decade later. Wow. Yeah. Okay. Are they still together?

No, God, no. God, no. She's got a British passport, though. Yeah. Yeah, great. Yeah. Lots of elopements overseas or never really planned to get married. It was in New York.

and we were just like, oh, maybe we should get married at City Hall. That'd be funny. Thought it would be a cool story. Pulled a guy off the street to be the witness. I've been married for two years now. Our parents were shocked but happy for us. I love that. I knew that we would never have got married if we were just here.

I'd love a Vegas weather. You know, like a big sort of boozy Vegas thing. Yeah. That'd be fun. Yeah. But again, not enough attention for you. No. The Z&M Podcast Network.

She's a rage-filled woman. Well, the early medical routes of the headphones was to give military hearing assessments. and audio meters for like hearing tests for hearing loss to judge your hearing loss well before they were used to listen to music they were used to listen to beeps and ever decreasing sound and increasing pitch to see whereabouts the hearing loss was happening so in 1910 Nathaniel Baldwin built a headset in his kitchen and the US Navy adopted it because it allowed for auditory monitoring of the bleeps and the bloops of a radar as well.

Oh, right. So it was used for hearing tests, and then it evolved into more precise hearing, so you could put your hands on that, evolved into switchboard usage for telephones, but it wasn't until the mid-century that transistor radios kind of popped around that the first ones popped up for personal usage, and then really took off in sort of the 70s and 80s

with the Walkman era, the mobile music era. And then, of course, now. Every Bluetooth, everybody. Although now everyone's got them. Although now everyone's going back to strings, corded headphones. I'm just like, go for a run. They're not going to work. They're going to floppy out.

Like, they're going to flop out. When you run on a treadmill and you'd be tethered to the treadmill by your ears? Yeah. And sometimes you'd like yank them out. And you'd be like, uh, yeah.

opposite where I was going to meet her and I was a little bit early so I was going to pop into a little shop. How's that not shopping going? How's that saving money? Because yesterday was Monday. That's her shopping day, remember? It's my shopping day.

Thank you. Yeah, but you haven't been keeping... You can't uphold the rules for me and then not honour them. Okay. So Monday was my shopping day. Okay? I'm not even born anything today, have I?

Yeah, but did you buy anything on other days last week? I actually just think that you're... It's none of your business. And I actually think you've been coming across as... I'm going to ask you to stop. So, um... Geez. Anyway, so I parked my car on the left side of the road

and I've got across to the right side of the road. Yeah. Now, if there's one thing I've come to accept about myself in recent years is that I don't wear pants. I don't wear pants. You don't wear pants. I wear skirts and dresses. Very rarely see you in a pant. Yeah, I would seldom wear pants.

I don't even really, if with a short, you know? I'm just not interested. Paint shorts. Well, I wear those every day. But I wouldn't wear them out to Ponceby Road to a fine linens event. No. Even I know that. So, yesterday I was wearing pants.

Just a wide, loose pants. And I don't know why, feeling a bit fat, got my period. You don't know, I'm just feeling, but yuck. And I was like, I must wear some pants. And I rue the day that I chose to wear pants because I did that thing where I parked my car and get out and I'm not at a crossing. Yeah.

And I'm just looking across the road and I see a break in the traffic where cars are slowly coming from that way and they've stopped from that way. So I'm like, I'll make a break for it, but I will have to get a bit of a hustle on. Oh, God. And so I start running across Ponson's and, road and suddenly I'm just like, boff, and I've hit the deck

and I've just... You've got a grave! I know! And my knees busted, look, my elbows bruised. You've taken a tumble. I had grazed hands, you still got a grazed knee? Look at that, that's major. That one there. And do you know what it was? My toe got hooked in the bell of my

pants. My toe... My toe... That was a wide-leg pant. My mistake. And then the toe got hooked. I don't feel that's enough to make one foot. It did because I felt the snack and it kind of pulled my toe to the side.

But like having your shoelaces tied. She's gone straight down. I went like that. And I was taking quite a strut. It was all on one leg. You generally what takes you down in the shoelaces when you stand on one shoelaces from one foot with the other foot.

Yeah, I don't really know. So it's a coordination issue? We blow him in the pants when it should have been a coordination. I'm a marching good. I'm very coordinated. Yeah, you march but you don't. Both your feet were off the ground at the same time because you're on a trot.

The front leg was there and then the pant was blowing in the wind very wind. very windy yesterday in Auckland and went like this and then the toe just tried to go forward like that gets pulled back and I just kind of trapped you like I've got stinging gravel rash look at that that's major

are we getting that on the camera just so for social so we're going to see that Shannon's just telling me she can't quite focus on that because it's not big enough but a carpet burn it's not carpet burn I promise it's not carpet burn I'm not rubber lounge room floor love making guys it was

the road I found Like when someone comes to work and they're like, oh my God, it's not a hacky. My vacuum cleaner got caught. Yeah, I've been tricked. And got these carpet burns on my elbows and knees. And forehead weirdly. I honestly wish someone saw it because it was a real like ungraceful, fap like that. And then I had to do that thing where you're on your own so you try to laugh it off because you're so embarrassed.

Like it would be funny if someone, a friend was with me and they could laugh at me in the moment. But they wasn't. So I had to do that thing. And I was like, I'm fine. By the way, no one got out of their car. Shivalry's dead. Oh yeah, no, it's Auckland. It's Ponserville Road.

Because by the time I realised what had happened, the car was at me. Yeah. In fact, I'm sorry, I nearly died yesterday. Oh, here we go. You've got run over on Ponservy Road. Can you see the evidence on my elbow? You're going to need to sort out this before your run this weekend. Your 8K run.

What if I fall? I mean, actually, I did hook my time and it's quite sore, so that might even pull me out of the race. Here we go. Network. Have you ever made a close friend story for just one specific person to see us today? Still a little poll. This seems ridiculous.

I don't even use close friends on Instagram. Wouldn't you just put up a story or a post and then someone that you want to see it will see it? I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of things people do post. Well, it's obviously... Maybe I'll have an understanding. It's obviously thirst traps or things to make people jealous, right? I just, I sent my thirst traps direct. Yeah, I would have thought that would have been a better idea.

Um, well, 17% of people have. Okay. Okay. You know, just under one in five, well, 83% of people said no. Let's see. Renee said, I voted no. I didn't know I could. Don't know I would.

Too much effort. Yeah, thanks for them. A lot of admin. Thank you, Renee. She's going to just send it direct. Yeah. I just love attention, said Phoebe. Same, Phoebe.

So she does a closer end's post. Maybe not for everybody. Maybe for a select few and loves the attention she gets back. Phoebe sounds like one of those people that would post a in the hospital bed with no caption I don't want to say anything Guys I'll tell you all when the time's Right yeah

Asia said no but if this was a thing Back in my single days I absolutely would have Yeah yeah right Just to get some guys attention You meet a fellow and then What a weekend you add him to close friends Yeah but maybe he hasn't messaged you back So you put up a lovely photo of you with I don't know

Some side boob or some Yeah yeah yeah like making the last of summer a bikini shot or something like that. Yeah, although I don't think that would have worked yesterday to be honest or today it's too cold. No, you look great for bikini

because everything's cold, everything's sucking in close. Yeah, right. So good, cold. Hard nips. You've got all the hallmarks there. The next person says, this is anonymous for obvious reasons.

I go one step further. People can see the green border when they're viewing a close friend story. If I want someone to see something and I want to be nonchalant about it, I'll hide my story from every single person that follows me except that one. That way it just looks like a normal, wholesome, close-rens story,

but I'm really just fishing for a response. Oh, devious activity. Or quite an embarrassing if you see they've viewed it and they don't reply to you. I know, I know. You were the whole point. Lifted on a hard scene. Yeah. Aaron said I wanted to show my ex bestie

who was giving me a hard time that I was actually in hospital to get them to feel bad. Yeah. So yeah, I posted a close friend's hospital post. Oh, okay. So they knew I wasn't making it up. M said yes, currently doing that for a whole thing. up. I'm liking too much.

Putting only sexy thirst traps on there, but he doesn't know, he, he. So he doesn't know it's for him. Well, don't accidentally post those to your story for everybody. How many people are they on this person's close friends? I never do. I never used close friends. Neither. And when I see a close friend's story from someone else, I'm like,

thank you for having been your close friends. You're not mine. I don't do close friends. I don't do close friends. Well, they for a while they were saying that's how you could get celebrities, If you add them to your close friends They might show up

And they might see you Oh really Does that still work? Any word on that? If that still works? I don't know Yeah I'm sure Close that loophole

Hannah said My best friend had a Tinder fling Do exactly this Wasn't hard to work out She was the only one in it With what he was posting Yeah right Right

So he was he was fishing in a barrel I think you call that Or shooting fish in a barrel I was trying to hit on a girl I'd match with on Tinder but they ended up ghosted me. This was my attempt at finding out why. Still didn't get a response.

Oh, see, that's... It'll die not knowing. When that happens. I love fishing. What's that? I love fishing for attention. Right. Yeah.

This doesn't surprise anyone. No. It doesn't. That's like you're saying, did you guys know, the sky appears blue? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'd be like, yes.

Do you know water is essential for survival? Yeah, we know that. I love attention. I love to fish for it. Dan said, as a game animal, he's shocked when my cousin's art comes up in my green circle

and it's not someone. and a jockstrap. Wow. Jock strap. Cousins aren't. The gays do love a close friends. A close friends. I was going to say they love a jock.

They do love a jock. They do love a jock, yeah. Don't they? Well, for today's still a little poll, we ask if you've ever posted a close friend's story for just one specific person, and 17% of you have. The ZM Podcast Network.

Play ZM's Fletchhorn and Haley. Well, the Melbourne Grand Prix is on this weekend, and in New Zealand are participating for the Visa Cash App Out Racing Bulls is Liam. who joins us in studio. Good morning. Hello, thanks for having me. Thanks are coming in. Fresh can of Red Bull just cracked.

I know. It's, uh, what's the time? It's early. It's early. It is early. What's it like being home? You've been kind of all around the world of late. Yeah, it's, it's always good.

Like, it's always very, very nice to be home. Yeah. I can never spend enough time here. Like, I came here over Christmas for two and a half weeks. And I wanted to, I probably should have relaxed as much as I could, but I ended up just doing stuff every single day because I had so much I wanted to do and I condensed it all

and then I was gone so... What kind of stuff did you want to do when you got, like, Hobbitum? Or do you mean like, C family? I probably should have just switched off a little bit but it was a long, like, really brutal season

and I was just on a dirt bike and on a jet ski and driving cars doing stuff every single day. All right, so you're in your down season you just get a different sort of motor right? Yeah, pretty much. Cheapers!

Put your feet up. What if you had a jet ski accident? Oh, it's in water. A mother and me just came out. It was just from your four. on the water, it's right. Yeah, a little bit safer. Although my friend smashed his head on a jet ski

and actually cracked the engine cover on it before. That's a hard head. That's a hard head. Do you have a favorite place, like a favorite country to visit? Because you move around so much? Yeah, it's home. Like New Zealand is probably always be number one. In America, love America.

Been out there. My girlfriend's from California, so, yeah, I'm out there quite a lot during the season, in between breaks. We have a few more American races now as well. So, yeah, I like spending time out there. How did it, how would you, when you started? Because it's not a huge, huge sport in New Zealand.

No, it's, um... Did you start more with the go-karts? I did, yeah. I was go-karting when I was six years old or seven years old. So, yeah. And I mean, guys now are starting like four years old in a go-kart. I think if I had a kid, he'd been a go-kart at three or four years. Straight, straight in there.

I always find it cute when the kids go past. on little dirt bikes and they're like three or something you're just like whoa it's like the way almost you sort of have to do it it's been literally my whole life as all I've done all I know and like since as far as back as far back as I can remember so yeah I feel lucky to always have known what I wanted to do

and obviously to be able to be doing it now is it's very cool so having been into it for so long and around different sorts of motorsport you obviously looked up to some of the guys you're now racing against what's that like yeah like when I was young Lewis was definitely he was like when I was eight years old, I read his book. Probably the only book that I really have ever read.

Everybody else is reading Harry Potter. Yeah, I read Lewis Hamilton. So he's somebody, yeah, that I looked up to. Obviously to be racing against these guys now is pretty cool. But at the same time, you know, things become normal very, very quickly. Like, it's important to always take a step back and realize how cool it is because you're so focused on just the next race, the next sort of achievement trying to reach it, the next goal.

so yeah it's been pretty cool though I experienced it every morning because Fletch from Vaughn I listened to them when I was young just to be here in their presence it's just amazing what was your first car as like a teenager mine was a 1992 Mitsubishi Mirage

got for 500 bucks the windows didn't go down and the ashtray was always full yeah I mean to be fair the best car is like my favourite car in fact my parents had it picked up and they got crushed by the the wreck is because they got sick of it sitting on the driver

but I had this perjo 206 from like 19 I can't even remember what year it was it was a GTI and this thing we just it was a backroad basically monstone me and our friends would just carve it down the backroads but it was I got it for yeah 500 bucks basically and it was the best it's the best car ever but they I didn't know until they told me literally two days ago

that they had it picked up and destroyed just gone I'm one of a piece of New Zealand motor racing history Yeah. I know. I just had it crushed. I know, had it crushed. Yeah. Could have auctioned it off.

My dad got sick of it seeing it. I definitely got more money than you would have purchased it for in the first place. Yeah. What do you drive now? We're not, you know, just on this. Formula one, Haley. On the Sivvy streets. Formula one, like that's waste here.

I mean, I'm sorry about her. No, I'm talking about what you're hoon around and in the 50K zones. Yeah. So it depends on what part of the world. Like I spend, because I spend a lot of time in America and they have, like, we have, like, we have, Uts here. but they have like bigger trucks

pick up trucks they have F-150s F-150s and they're like so much bigger so Ford have a Raptor R which is basically

a supercharged 750 horsepower V8 truck with like Fox racing shocks it's like a stadium truck basically for the road but they're so practical there because there's so much space

like you could never drive it in Auckland yeah yeah going over a speed hub here a standard ranger and sometimes the parallel parking is just ton of time. Yeah, but it's like two times the size of a ranger.

They're so much bigger. And, but like for road trips through America, they're very, very nice. Are you a good basic driver? Like, can you parallel park? I'm not too bad. I haven't, I think... It just feels like a completely different set of skills, right?

It is. Like, in fact, to be fair, some of my teammates have been terrible drivers like on the road. Like, I've been with them and just, yeah, absolutely tragic. If there was, like, a cafe or a bar and people were just, you know, eating and then you pulled out.

and they noticed you, would you feel the pressure to parallel park? Oh yes, because the whole cafe is like, shoo. A hundred percent because it's not the same thing as driving in Formula One car. People expect you just to be good at everything related to a car. Parallel parking and certain things are I'm real about it not indicating and stuff like that as well.

Well, you don't indicate, do you when you pass some people? No, imagine if they introduce that to Formula One. If you're going to pass, you've got to indicate. Otherwise, there's a three-second time penalty. Oh, God, and if they don't indicate when they pass, you just flip the bird. Because you're almost lying flat in a Formula One car, right? Yeah, you are. You're lying.

Your feet are actually like as high as your eyes. It's really hard to do on this. Oh, I can't do. I tried that. Yeah, yeah. It's so comfortable, I promise you. It's not very good for your back. Like, we have pretty bad backs in Formula One,

because you pull a lot of G. Like, G force, laterally is massive. It's like five, even more, 6G sometimes that you're sustaining. So not very good for your back, but, yeah, it's like I fall asleep in between sessions all the time in the car. Oh, wow. You just lie down. Yeah, and you're lying down, and the seat that you're in is completely moulded to your body.

So it's like perfectly fitted to you, just sit in it, and it's like your body shape. It wouldn't work for us. We're weight. Yo-yo dieters. We have to stay consistent. It's very important that we're saying consistent. Oh, God, no, I couldn't. Is it like going back into the season?

Are they like, ooh, you're sitting in the thinking like, that's a bit tight. We need to mold. They're like, no, no, you need it. We're at first way of the year, because we weigh before every single time. Before and after the session, we weigh with all I kit. And, yeah, started this year. My trainer was like, geez, Liam. Oh, he's been in the good paddock.

He's been grazing on the good stuff. What's the difference in weight between the start and the end of a session? It depends on where we're racing. And they'll calculate, like team will calculate that because we have a minimum weight, which we want to be as close to as we can. Yeah. So, and obviously they have to calculate. We can gain something by sort of calculating

if I'm a driver that loses two kilos in a hot race. Well, that's something we can obviously gain. We've got to be careful, not serve. to be underweight. So, um, if we're in Singapore, like two kilos,

but if it's, sweating it out. Switting it out, yeah. That's insane. That'd take me like two moms. It doesn't, if one of the events are,

if one of events are just absolutely full of the biggest celebrities in the world, who are some of the biggest celebrities you've met that you're just like, oh my God, I cannot believe I just met that person. I don't even know. I don't, I'm really not that type of person. I think...

You're probably quite focused, I imagine. Well, I mean, coming into Formula One, it was... I was like that when I was young, but it was about Formula One drivers. And then, and then sort of, as you get closer to Formula One, you realize that these guys are actually your competition now. You know, they're not guys that you sort of look up to anymore. So, yeah, I think I probably sort of didn't have that already from a younger age. But, yeah, it's pretty cool.

The sport's growing. We have some really cool people that are in and out of the paddock. Yeah, throughout the years. where Brad Pitt when it's because you popped up in the F1 movie like, there he was. Yeah, I know. I got a full screen for like half a second. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was just like a smile. I know. I'm glad

you guys noticed it because not many people did. I saw it. I saw it. I know. I know. I did you get to meet him. Yeah, I met him and and I mean, he did a really good job with that movie. I think he obviously spent a lot of time. He was around for a long time before as well. I think sort of getting to know the sport and preparing

for it. So, yeah, it was pretty cool to see that. Can you do that thing? where I've seen it where Formula One drivers can recognise a track based on the sounds of a car taking it? You know, be like, oh, I know that corner.

Yeah, probably. Do you sort of study them that intensely? Well, it's not, we don't, unless we're doing a game show or something like that, no, it's not something we're like, we spend a lot of time in simulators and my brother builds those, that's his job. He builds Simrigs in Melbourne.

What kind? The, like, gamey ones for rich, people. The people that wanted to do Formula One but weren't good enough. Yeah, like these ones, like the seats and the big curved screens and stuff. Yeah, but so many people getting into it and they race teams on there and all that. It's incredible how popular it's become and how close it's getting. You'll never obviously have the feeling the G-Force and that side of it.

But the accuracy to sort of the way the cars are, the platforms that, you know, we're doing set up work. Like our development for our Formula One cars, we can't test whenever we want. We can't just go and test the new car next week and spend time. It's all done in the simulator. So it has to be super accurate to make these small changes and then, yeah, basically apply them to the real car. It's like a superpower.

It's so amazing. I could never do it. I'm very top secret. I'm very good at parallel parking. It's also very top secret at the simulator. It's like they don't let us. The Formula 1 ones, yeah. They don't let us see them until, like, as a junior, I wanted to see the simulator,

but they wouldn't let me until the day that I first drove it. I guess you're like multiple doors to get to it. Yeah. Oh. Like fingerprint scanned. Yeah. This is crazy. Wild.

Well, all the best of this weekend. It's in Melbourne. It kicks off Sunday 8th of March of 5pm. Yeah. Liam Lawson from the Visa Cash app racing balls. Thanks so much. Thank you guys. Play ZM's Flesh for it and Haley.

Georgia joins us. Just early. Yeah. Yeah, this is going to throw people. You know that, eh. We're not saying goodbye to you just yet. George is in because she is a chronic. Gift voucher hoarder.

I am. I don't. Oh, I cleaned out my bed. real recently I found too well expired. Yes. Now guys, call them up. Tell them how far expired it is and they might extend it because that's what happened to three of mine.

I'm just waiting to hear back from a massage place. Three. Yep. And they're all fancy restaurant places. How long had you let them lapse? This is what we want to ask now is if you are like Georgia, dear listener, like what vouchers have gone to waste? Oh, 800 dollars at him.

9-6-96. Because it's insane. It's insane. Yeah. They are changing. On the 17th of March, they're changing to a three-year minimum, I believe. New rules taking effect because you've paid for a service and you haven't received it. Yeah, it'll be the law.

Yeah. It'll be the law. Yeah. It'll be the law. Minimum expiry time of three years. Yeah, well, see, that's ideal because I got a massage voucher and it was like six months that I had to use it in. And I was like, yeah, I don't need to relax at the moment. Like, I don't know.

I'm chill. Yeah. If somebody gave me a massage voucher, I'd use it within the week. Really? Really. No, I've got to figure out what I want to get. I might want a facial, but then I might want my back rub down. That's a facial.

That's not a mask. It's a spa voucher. It's a spa voucher. It's not for either. Okay, right. But the ones I go ahead for the restaurants was Eppett. One expired in December, and that was for a year. And then the other one expired literally last week.

But I just called them up and they're like, yeah, all good to go. You're another year on those bad boys? It's good that they did that because most places would be like, nope. I hate it when you're at the place and you have a voucher for it, but you didn't bring it. Like I had that... There's that amazing cocktail bar caretakers and I had a hundred dollar voucher and then you'd be in town

you're like, sure we got a caretakers? You go and you're like, damn it! I didn't remember voucher. That's four cocktails too. I know. I know. I know. Well, this is what we want to know this morning. 0.800 dials at M is the number.

You can text her as well. 966. Did you waste a gift voucher? And how much was it? Yeah, how much was it and how long did it expire? Voucher laws are going to change. From March 17th, they have to have a minimum of three years before they can expire.

So do you think this has made people think about all the Christmas gift cards they got that are just in a drawer somewhere? Or that they've like chucked out because they expired and now that's just money gone. Because I'm a huge fan of business. Yes. You know me. I do know. I put profits over people every time.

Is this hard on businesses though? Because if they've got outstanding vouchers, they have to count that against their. Yes. And also the services or the products they sold the voucher for at the time could be now worth so much more. Significantly more, yes. I mean I guess so, yeah. If it's a service, not an agreed price, like if you get a $200

voucher to spend somewhere, that's $200, they're actually going to get less. You're actually making a bank. But if it's like you get this service and someone pay $200 or $200 or $200 or something. But then even a massage a couple of years down the track, the price of the actual rent of the business, the electricity, that's all gone up.

Yeah, but when I've bought massage vouchers recently, it's been like in brackets the price. So if you've got a hundred bucks to spend here and if you want to add on, that's up to you. Yes. So if it costs more, you just top it up ten bucks three years later. I want a massage today, by the way. That's just what I've said over it too many times. I have wondered about the economy of lost vouchers, like how much is just lost.

Oh, yeah. Jess joins us. Jess, how much did you waste on a gift card that expired? I didn't waste it. It was my partner has $500 worth of Hellenstein's vouchers in his drawer next to the bed. How did he have $500 worth? Over three years his grandma's been giving him money. He sucks at using vouchers.

Far be it from me to speak on Hellenstein's behalf, I reckon they're the kind of place that probably allows for it. He believes that he should be able to use them, so he said one day he's going to use them. They're 10 years old. Oh, no. 10 years. Oh, no.

I'm sorry, Jess. 10 years old. I don't know, but bad. Also, why doesn't Nandas buy him something, I don't know, some restaurant vouchers or some other kind of vouchers? Cash. Yeah. That would be much nicer.

Yeah. My grandad used to call cash life vouchers. Life vouchers. I got you some life vouchers and it'd give me 20 bucks. I like that. We do live off life vouchers. Jess, thank you. So a stat, based on a consumer New Zealand estimate,

New Zealanders lose more than 10 million annually on unredeemed and expired gift cards. I don't know. There's something else I was thinking about the other day, the lost economy of something where you buy it and then you just never cash it in and it wasn't vouchers, but of something like that. Here's something else they say as well.

It's unspent amounts that go to waste as well. You buy something on a gift card that's a $100 gift card. Yes. You still got $26.17 on it. You just chuck that away and you're like, well, that's what I was thinking of. That's what I was thinking of. How much is like, can you buy something and it's $3 and so you just forget about it. More than half the people unable to redeem their vouchers

still had over $20 left on a card remaining. Wow. Some messages in. Jess said I recently calculated I lost $450 worth of Prezsche cards when they expired. They've got... I think I've got one at the moment. They're two years. They shouldn't expire though.

No. Because that's just a life voucher. It's a credit card. Yeah. I lost $50 on a petrol station voucher because it went more than two years. It expired. My hack is I always go in with the voucher. And if I don't see anything I want to buy, I just buy another voucher with the voucher.

And they're always looking at me weird. I'm like, well, that one's about to expire, and I want to keep the ability to buy something to the store one day. Where are you going that there's nothing that you can buy with that? Yeah. I don't know. Maybe Cosmic Corn are you waiting for the 2026 bombs. Yeah, yeah.

You know what we call it with the 2020. Yeah, you don't know what the 2025 bongs. You look like a fool. Yeah, you want the 2027 bong right at the end of. Man, these bongs are outdated, bro. Yeah. Okay, so you know that New Zealand stat I said that's like more than 10 million annually unredamed. In America, in America, $23 billion, they reckon, is on unspent gift cards.

It just doesn't surprise me. Isn't that insane? That amount of money? Well, get out there and spend them. Yeah, if we've learned anything today, it's find those gift cards. Spend them. Spend them. Spend them. If you like today's podcast, tell your friends, you could send them the link.

And if you don't have any friends, just pretend you did. Yeah, great. And rate and review. maybe get out there and try to make some friends. Play ZDM's Fletchhorn and Haley.
