Good morning.
Welcome to the show, Fletch Fawn and Haley.
You'll never beat Windows 98.
That's a classic.
Windows 95.
Oh, something if you've got Windows 10 or something,
you've got to update to 11.
Otherwise you won't have the security features.
I think, didn't Windows 11 came out?
Like a year ago, you probably should have updated anyway.
Windows XP, man
You can't beat Windows 95
I'm a 98 girl
Windows NT
Remember that one?
I think I was out by then
You were out by then
I don't know
I don't remember
You would have been 11
Let's get a Mac
Get a Mac all the problems
And then we just went Macie
Yeah
Yeah
On the show today
Vaughn you've got the top six coming up
Yeah
Katie Perry
Is seeing Justin Trudeau
Not Thuro
No, not Thoreau.
Ex-Canadian Prime Minister.
Yes.
The top six Katie Perry songs
that can be adjusted
to fit her new relationship.
I were having a lovely smooch
on a...
Very nice boat.
Very nice yacht.
Whose boat was that?
That was for the paparazzi, though.
You don't stand on the top of the boat like that
just to have a care of say.
That's a hard launch.
That's a hard launch.
That's a big, fat smooch.
That's not someone's elbow in a Instagram post.
No, yeah, that's not like sort of a couple of knuckles
holding a hand. No, no, that's a hard launch.
This is coming up in the top six. Next on the show, though,
there is a, if you're into it, a new kind of marathon.
And this one involves food.
I did the last time once and that was enough.
Yeah, and I've never done one, but this might make me.
Play Z-M's, Flashbourne and Haley.
A lot of people are gearing up for the Auckland marathon and the Auckland half.
Our friend Maddie Maclean, he's doing it?
No, he's not anymore.
Is he not? No, I saw him at the weekend and says not.
He says his standard injury.
I don't know.
He just said he's not.
Can't be bothered.
I get close and be like, can't be ass with that anymore.
He said all the training in that though.
Well, no, look, I don't know.
But yeah, if you're doing all the training, you've got, you've just, you're gunning for it, aren't you?
Yeah, absolutely.
The only half that I did, I train for ages and I was like, I've got to do this.
I'm here now.
Well, it's just happened.
Again, the seventh international Taco Bell 50K Ultra Marathon.
Now, this has nothing to.
do, I will say for legal reasons, it has nothing to do with Taco Bell.
Oh, does it not?
They want nothing to do with it.
I thought they must be an official sponsor.
Not an official sponsor, but it does involve Taco Bell.
Now, this is how the International Taco Bell 50K Ultramarathon works.
And by the way, the next year's edition, October 3rd, 26, 354 days if you want to start training.
Yeah, I could do that.
A loop throughout the city of Denver.
It includes mandatory stops at 10 taco bells in the area.
I can't eat 10 tacos.
Well, and this is the thing.
There are some rules.
Here's how it works.
You have to order something at nine of the 10 taco bells,
and you've actually got to eat the food.
That includes one chalupa supreme or one crunch wrap supreme,
which I'm assuming is big.
They're big, right?
Yeah, they're big.
You've got to eat the food.
and then we've also got to have
one burrito supreme or one nachos
Bell grand by the eighth storm.
No, I can't do that.
How is this nothing to do with Taco Bell?
This is like those videos I keep seeing
of those scangly-clad woman in Starbucks aprons.
How has someone not put a stop to this?
I think they love the publicity
but they don't want any liability.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So they're happy to go along with the publicity
that this gets every year,
but they want nothing to do
if someone keels over because they've run 50.
People will be chundering, right,
the whole time.
So, you need to finish the 50Ks within 11 hours.
You need to keep all receipts and wrappers.
Drinks do not count as food.
Obviously, it's a challenging race for the digestive system.
So, you know, you've got to keep all the food down.
They have a zero-tolerance policy on vomiting.
If you do, you're immediately disqualified.
Denver is also at 1,600 meters above sea level.
So it'd be the equivalent to doing it just below.
What's 1,700?
Is that?
Turoa or Fokapapa's base car park.
So you're running at altitude.
Far out.
With guts full of burritos.
Gobbling up crunch rap superms, which I'm just looking at a photo of on the U.S.
Tagabal website and it's like...
They're quite fun.
Yeah, but not while you're running.
No, when you run, you're supposed to have little gummies and little...
yummy little sugary treats and sugary treats and stuff.
Oh my God, I couldn't.
I absolutely couldn't.
Yeah, Turoa is 1,600 metres.
The elevation at Turoa ski area, 16...
It's the equivalent of doing an ultramarathon at that altitude.
Yes.
That's silly.
That's the base elevation.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
But if you break it down, you've got 11 hours to do it in.
Yes.
So 41 kilometres.
You were also only allowed to use the Taco Bell restrooms
and one other approved public toilet.
Oh no, I'd piss on the side of the road.
You can't tell me what to do.
Well, that's the thing, like actual marathon runners,
just sometimes just we as they run.
Yeah, yeah.
Remember that woman who showed us out?
You want to flop it out, the leg and wee.
That's privileged there.
Yeah, it is actually.
Yeah.
You could pop a squat, pull the pants to the side and pee.
It's because when the pants get wet, the chafing's going to get out of control.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
700 runners.
Do you remember as a kid wetting your pants and just getting that piss chaf?
No, I used to wet my pants every day before my kidney surgery.
It was terrible.
The piss chaf and I'm just a mate.
It's not talked about enough.
Piss chaf isn't talked about enough.
It's a different sort of chaf.
As it starts to dry, yeah, and it sort of burns a bit.
Grim.
Well, 700 runners did this, and there's a lot of accounts on TikTok.
Seven hundred.
And Reels, if you want to indulge in what an ultramarathon is like on Taco Bell.
It's such a hard no for me.
Yeah.
The marathon bit, not the Taco Bell bit.
Yeah, you'd nail that one.
You'd nail that side of it.
Play Z-M's, Fletch Vaughan and Haley.
I've got a question.
What do you guys rocking for teetails?
No, I don't want to say, because I got, I got,
Ruth, I suggested to the gal something
and I got ruthlessly roasted from my
your private school
was sure I'm out of touch. My lack of awareness.
Yeah, you're out of touch. I'm, I rock a country
road but I will say I bought
them so far back in my
renovation. You know, there were I thought
that I had more money than I did.
Right. But they've lasted
100% Australian cotton. They're lovely,
lovely, lovely, lovely. Do Australia is grow cotton?
I don't know. I don't know
Australia did cotton. Yeah. Yeah,
well, let's see it's 100% Australian cotton.
Everyone's moving there.
Cotton.
They've got cotton.
Cotton.
It's not the better pay.
Hayley, Jane.
Don't I...
Three teetouts for $45.
Haley!
That's a $15 teetow.
I said to you I've lost perspective,
but this is years ago that I bought these
and they're still going strong
and they're excellent quality.
She was flush with money from the bank for renovation.
Because the kitchen was the first room we did.
Not the rest of it then happened.
So I was getting lush te towels.
Why does...
I'm just a man of the people I have my briskos tea towels.
still going strong, like 10 years later.
But what brisk, what are they mean?
Briscoes doesn't have its own brand.
I don't know.
They were nice cotton ones, though.
They've got to be cotton.
I feel it was a chef.
Huh?
Had it attached his name.
Simon Gult.
No, that's what they are.
They're gulkins.
Gordon Ramsey.
And Jamie Oliver, or they all do a to towel.
Right.
What are you looking for?
Because you obviously don't want something that smears.
No, I want him.
Matt's message, and he's got the country road teetails.
Well, because we're both of elite taste.
I understand.
Matt, Matt, Harris, Matt.
Yeah, look, that's a lovely teetowel.
Stripey.
This is why Matt and I are kindred spirits.
They look like the boy in the striped pajamas edition.
Yeah, I don't want to be reminded of that.
I don't want to be reminded of the Holocaust every time I'm driving my pots.
We don't want Holocaust teetals.
Simon Gold's got a $17 tea towel at Briscoe?
No, you've got a...
No, you get them on special worn.
Royal Dalton Giovanni Quotro.
There's no way.
That's a $7 tea towel.
Yeah, there's no way I was paying $17 for a tea towel.
That would have been like 50% off.
Those ones, they always have at work.
Those Aliscoe ones and they come and they swap them out.
No.
Every now and then you'll see a pack of three of those for sale at the supermarket.
The key is, it's like any towel,
tea towel or bath towel or beach towel.
You've got to get like a, you've got to get a good cotton one.
Yes, it's got to be cotton.
With a hot wash.
If you get that, what's that, it's kind of, it's not cotton,
but it feels like you just moving the water around you.
Yes, yes, yes, it's the worst.
Like a synthetic situation.
Like a microfibre.
You're just sort of rubbing it around.
Yeah, that's the worst.
I love a microfiber.
I recently got rid of the
ones you get on a roll.
Yes.
And I've gone to a reusable, washable
microfiber game changer for the house.
Now there's elite.
Game changer for the house.
That's elite.
It's a late where you can just keep reusing them.
You know, they can't get over that microfiber.
Also, my scrub daddy, my dish daddy.
Have you been using that?
I used to scrub daddy in the shower
I have used my
scrub daddy with the liquid in the handle
so much I need a new pad
I don't even fill up the sink to do the dishes anymore
I just run a hot tap and scrub daddy it
Oh wow
Game change it
And then pop it up
And then I need to dry it
And that's where the tea towel comes in
Because I've only got holy old teetow
This is really sexy chant
It's sexy chat
I'm sorry
I'm sorry some of us have to live life
You know
Like it's not all
It's not all
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
you've got to do the bloody dishes.
You do it to do the dishes.
After you have the sex and the drugs and the rock and roll,
someone's got to clean up.
If someone comes around to your house for the sex
and you've not done your dishes,
I think they're not going to want to have sex with you.
And they're certainly not going to want to rock and roll.
All the rock and roll, all the drugs.
No.
Because you're not going to have a clean plate.
No, there's no clean plate.
There's no clean plates.
You can't do drugs off a wet plate?
Can you add a little clog up?
Jesus.
I don't know.
I've never done those drugs,
but I've seen people do it and it was on a plate.
Can't have a wet plate.
I can't have a wet pie.
Play ZM.
Fletch Forne and Haley.
Silley Little Poe, silly little pole, silly little
poll, it is so silly, silly, silly, silly that
silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole.
Silly little pole, silly little pole.
Silly little pole today is do you still write things down with pen and paper?
I bloody love having a nice,
pad, like a nice refill
or a nice hotel pad, hotel pads.
We've got a yellow pad.
I love it.
Yeah, you do have a yellow pad.
Yeah, lined.
Yeah, legal pad.
Yeah, dude.
I always at a hotel over the weekend in Melbourne.
And my friend was like, what are you doing?
I'm taking the refra.
I'm taking the pad.
And the pen?
And the pen.
The peniraco, that's coming with me, mate.
That's free.
She wanted to take the microwave too, but.
He was like, stop, stop.
They own that.
You're like, do they?
Calm down, mate.
Yeah.
They don't leave these phones and lamps here.
I bring my bolt cutters on holiday to cut the chain that holds the microwave in.
It's fine.
This tapware is removable for a reason, dude.
Yeah, man.
And I know that water is squirting everywhere, but I don't know where this top valve is.
God, calm down.
Do you write things down with pen and paper?
Are options where yes all the time, once in a blue moon, or never?
85% yes all the time.
Okay.
That's at the supermarket list.
People are like, put it in your phone and tick it off as you go.
my phone's doing other things at the supermarket
like taking photos of funny products
like listening to a good jam
like fags coffee
yeah
that makes me laugh every time
still take a photo of it every time I see it
yeah
yeah
well how are they getting away with that
how did I get away with just saying that word
because it's a company
coffee brand
yeah that's how
that's how
yeah
well 85% of people all the time
14%
I for one I'm deeply offended
as it is your right to be
Yeah, as a coffee drinker over anything, he's deeply offended.
Once in a blue moon, 14%, 1% never.
We should do a topic on what can you believe is still a brand name.
I mean, obviously.
What was it, Australian cheese?
They only just changed it.
Yes, cheese.
Yes.
Wild, eh?
Yeah.
God.
But anyway, the writing things down, it is crazy how long you can go just to.
typing and sending emails and using your phone without writing anything.
Yeah.
Like school exams.
I used to get that lump on my finger, which is still there.
Yeah.
From holding the pen.
Yeah.
And I hold my khaki because I'm left-handed.
And you're khaki.
And I'm just khaki in general.
Just khaki girl.
Earl said I have an A4 notepad on my desk for notes, reminders and working outs.
It's not pretty, very messy, but very helpful.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good.
How good is a good, like, semi-hard-covered notebook?
lovely but you know one roof here
not the branch of the company
they once gave us these notebooks
those were stall in the notebook
and good pens I still got mine floating around
and it's in the second draw down
and the computer desk I'll whip it out every now and there
can I just take a side step
because we did both Vaughan and I commit to journaling
how's yours going
I haven't done it either
I have to put it beside my bed I need to
I need to
prioritize it
yeah you do my triumphs and tragedies
yeah and I was just
I need a nice
hard-covered journal
And I've got to take a bit of time
I don't think you'll use it
Yeah I don't think the journal's the issue
Just don't bother
You're the issue
I am the issue
You're getting in your own way
Yeah
Yeah
Well classically
Suffering as a result
Sophie said I handwritten my grocery list
In order of the aisles
Do you know what I do
I'll do a little post-it note
And write down what I need
And sticking on my wallet
So I have a good idea
I've just got it there
So you know chat
Because I use chat
Cheap BT did plan out like my
meals for the week and everything.
It will put, and then you're like, okay,
print me a shopping list in order for
Westgate Pack and Save,
which is where I do my big weekly shop.
How does it know?
Shut up. No, it just is.
I swear to go. It goes produce. It goes produce,
meats, dairy, general.
No, but the dairy for me,
how it, no, because it's on the edges
of the supermarket. Yeah, but you'd put it in your
supermarket. But you put it in your supermarket.
That's crazy. I don't think it knows my supermarket.
I think Pack and saves might
be a sort of a, that's the
structure of a Pakistan. Do you think chat
GPT would be familiar with Faro's?
I don't know. Or a more
Wilson's. It would chat would be like
Haley, you don't have the money
for Farrow. Go to Parkinson's.
You're on a budget. A, it's closer to pairs.
Using pen and paper
says Kathy, or the act of writing has
proven benefits of the human brain.
Yes. Improves cognitive function and
memory, not to mention creativity, writing
is so good for you. Yeah, good.
Thanks, Kathy. That's really
encourage me to get back to my journaling.
Okay.
Adam said, yes, I also print everything I need for work and have multiple doom piles on my desk.
Well, that sounds like a nightmare.
Artash daily, I start my day with a gratitude journal, which is in a diary.
Start your day off with some positivity.
That's me.
Maybe, maybe, 2026.
Because I've seen the 2026 diaries out there.
Yeah.
I've got myself a nice mullskin.
Yeah.
Wouldn't that be better before you go to bed?
End of the day.
You just like, what are you, you know, you just had a bad sleeve.
Maybe if it's a full page each day, start of the day, end of the day.
Expectations, reality.
Triumphs and tragedies.
Just a little thought.
Just anything's helpful.
I like that.
Give it till mid-January.
Dude, absolutely.
Topps.
I'm not doing that at all.
No.
Tori said I'm a social worker, so often write things down and it's nicer to do when people are talking to.
It's distracting for them to use a device and you look to form tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
Write it down in a piece of paper.
Mason, yes, all the time now that I work with boomers who are afraid of modern technology.
Beth all the time but follow-up question
Is it illegible enough for others
Or myself at a later date?
No, the answer is no
No
The answer is no
I use my arm
When I don't have paper
Says Michael
He writes on his own arm
And Matt said
I'm a musician
And writing setless
With a pen and paper
Just feels more legit
I also prefer writing songs
With pen and paper
Oh how embarrassing
Imagine seeing a rock band
ACD see something
They've got a typed out
Bloody setless
They all have typed out
It's not rock and roll
No they do
No they do
Because you get to see set lists
now
typed out. Yeah, and a lot of friends will
stay till the end of the show and get them.
Steal the set list. Steal the set list. It's just typed out.
So for SLP today, that's the little time.
Do you still write things down with pen and paper?
85% of you? All the time.
Play ZM's Fletchbourne and Haley.
Play ZM's Fletchpawn and Haley.
I haven't spoken about this for a while, but if I,
I reckon if I could only eat one sweet for the rest of my life,
it would be Coke bottles, the lollies.
Oh, are we talking lollies?
Or are we just talking anything sweet?
Lollies.
Let's go lollies.
No, I go coke bottles over chocolate.
Really?
I know it's insane.
I love a lollies.
For lollies.
I just love them.
Oh my God.
Like if we ever go to a dairy or anywhere in there's little packets of coat bottles, she'll get them.
I'll get one.
And I can't stop.
They're so delicious.
Do you like a traditional or a sour?
I'll go sour.
They're the best ones.
I'll take traditional.
Not a gummy.
one without the coating on it.
Well, this is what nearly took a man's
life, these coke bottles.
Not the sour ones, the gummy ones.
Did he choke on them? No, he didn't. His name is
Nathan Rimmington.
Grow up. Sorry.
He lives in Barnsley in the UK
and he said he made a stupid decision
that led to him being in hospital nearly losing
his life after he bought a three
cagey bag
of the cola bottle lollies
after he had a hangarang
he was like oh man
because quite often
these they're not
there's no brand that does
Coke bottle lollies eh
nah who's that we got
we got sent some once by that
Kiwi
yeah but they're made by a million
different companies right
yeah yeah no one owns them
quite often there'll be bags online
and it's weird like bulk
bulk bags
like three of five KGs of them
well he got a three KG bag
he said he had a strong craving
that couldn't be met
other than buying a three KG bag
the bag arrives day one
He eats a quarter of the bag.
Okay, I'm sorry about if I'm got a craving for lollies, I'm not waiting a day.
I'm going to a dairy.
I'm going straight away to a supermarket or dairy.
Yeah.
Yeah, same.
So he had a craving.
This bag rips, three kages of cola bottle lollies.
Day one, he eats a quarter of the bag.
Yeah.
And he, quote, starts to feel unwell.
Okay.
Starts to feel unwell.
Yep.
On day two, he eats another quarter.
And surprisingly, despite feeling unwell.
Yep.
On day two, he ate the other quarter, still felt sick, quote, unquote, which is shocking.
He's trying to put it all together.
By the end of the next day, so half the bag's gone, the third day, he ate the other half.
And in three days, has consumed three cages of Coke bottle lollies.
He said he ate regular meals throughout as well.
So it wasn't the only thing he was eating, including he went to a roast carvery, you know, a roast shop.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, had a roast.
Got himself a roast.
Then he was like, oh my God, I feel really sick.
My health is rapidly declining.
I know what will solve it.
More coke.
Another 3KG bag.
He goes to the hospital and he says, I think I've had a bad roast.
Not this guy.
He's eaten three cages of lollies.
Yeah.
He got a CT scan and food poisoning tests came back clear
because if you were that sick and you are blaming this roast,
signs of food poisoning would be in your system.
Yeah.
Nothing. Why is he feeling so unwell?
And then he revealed to them, listen, I may have eaten three KGs of Coke bottles in three days,
which is when they did an internal investigation and found that his digestive system was completely blocked up with gelatin.
Had it just like reformed?
It had like co-aculated.
It's a one giant Coke bottle.
Yes.
His blood pressure was extremely high after it estimated 11,000 calories of sweets.
He was diagnosed with acute diverticulitis,
which is an inflammation of the large intestine.
Right.
Mr. Rimmington was hospitalized for six days,
and doctors said he was lucky to be alive.
Or because he ate three-k-ggees of Coke bottles.
So the gelatin.
Because that's like an animal product, right?
It was all...
Obviously got to the point where the body couldn't digest any more.
Three-k-gues is a lot of...
That's ridiculous.
Is this guy a unit?
Yeah, he's a bit of a gym tank.
Oh, he's a gym tank.
He looks a bit like a gym tank, I reckon.
But, yeah, I think if you have a craving, which I often do for a co-bottle,
just take a tottle down to your local dairy, pay $2, get a small bag, eat that.
You'll still feel a little bit sick, but you won't die.
Play. ZM's, Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.

Oh, we could have played little versions of it.
Yeah, absolutely.
That could have happened.
A lot of work, though, you've asked for there, Fletch, and it is $6.59.
Literally, like, literally as we started this break, I've finished.
The list.
Yeah.
You can't tell.
You cannot tell.
You can't tell.
You can't tell it all.
Well, remember Katie Perry's song, Waking Up in Vegas?
Yes.
The number one Katie Perry song, Rework for a new book.
Waking up in Ottawa.
Oh, it's a change.
Well, that's where the Canadian.
Well, that's where the Canadian parliam is based.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, hello.
Well, yeah, read here in order, where he?
That is today's sales.
Play ZM's Fletchforn and Haley.
Now, Taylor Swift had teased a huge announcement yesterday,
and I note that we had the album drop,
and then we had all these little mini-extra album things
with bonus tracks and stuff,
so I was like, what could come next?
And apparently the Swifties have not been disappointed.
You know what?
As a long, long-time Swifty,
I'm used to these announcements being merch, being variants.
Here's a T-shirt.
Being things that are only for the US as a New Zealander.
sucks. And this time I was like, oh, it's just going to be a single or a music video.
It's not going to be what we want. You have to manage expectations in order to avoid
disappointment. Yeah, because otherwise you're, you look like a clown. But for the first
time, we're not a clown. We got the announcement of the Eras Tour's documentary that
we've been looking forward to. So this is... The Eras Tour wasn't when all the pieces
fell into place. This tour was just when every single one of us who had
done so much work pushing inch by inch to where we all clicked together we have broken every
single record you can break with this tour the only thing left is to close the book
Oh, that's a good trailer.
So when's it coming out?
So this is what it is, right?
It's actually a six episode behind the scenes docu-series.
Wow.
But also the Erez Tour, the final show,
which is like the movie that she put out of the Erez Tour last year.
Yeah.
But it now includes the tortured poets department.
So it's actually just like the entire last ever show she did.
So she, okay.
Gosh, she doesn't have to drag it out.
Yeah, so we're getting the movie
and the first two document series episodes
December 12th and then weekly releases
for the next four weeks after that.
And where is it going to be on Disney Plus?
She is a partnership with them.
That's where her old areas to a movie was.
I actually feel like even if you weren't a Swifty,
this would be a really interesting watch
just because of the scale of putting on something,
this epic.
It was so fun watching the trailer,
just seeing the little snippets of what she is going to show.
We're seeing Travis and how he went on stage.
We also saw...
Yeah, but did she get a text from her husband,
you know, saying, I want a divorce before she went out
because that Katie Perry documentary,
and then that was second to none.
No, but she did go through the breakup of an eight-year relationship
during the Erez tour.
So, but we also saw the sticky notes of all of her surprise songs,
and I think a lot of Swifties are excited to see
how she picked which surprise songs she would do every night of the tour.
So it's going to be a good old watch.
Ed Sharon was in the trailer, like a little bit of him in the trailer.
Sabrina Carpenter.
And apparently Disney paid Taylor Swift more than $75 million.
Yeah, fair enough.
That's that I reckon.
You know what, though, this will turn a lot of people into getting a subscription.
I know multiple people who don't have subscriptions who will get one to watch them.
Yeah, yeah, 100%.
Well, that's why they paid her $75 million.
It won't be money lost to them.
God, no, they're smart.
I think that's a cheap deal.
Was there ever any stats about how many subscriptions they recouped?
Because remember when Jimmy Kimmel, they said Jimmy Kimmel was indefinitely suspended.
And people responded by by like, well, I'll cancel Disney Plus.
They lost a fair amount.
They lost millions of subscribers.
Yeah, yeah.
Who was that celebrity that signed up and then canceled?
Noa Centeno, yeah.
He signed up on the day and then canceled just so that he could post it to cancel.
Oh, that's so good.
That's so good.
Yeah.
He's on a one week free trial anyway, but he's like, but I've canceled.
No, no, the screenshot that he used said, you'll have this until like,
September 2026 or something
so everyone knew that he'd signed up
that day. That's so funny. That's embarrassing.
Well, December, if you're a Swifty.
Wait, when you sign up for this guy's
Swiftie, let me tell you about a great
series on that, you'll find a Star Wars.
Now, Star Wars
Next on the show.
The Sky Walker Saga.
Next on the show.
I'm just saying, whoa by there.
Wobar there.
Play ZM's Flashpoint and Haley.
Secret sound.
It's a book
Maybe you should read one
Wow
Here he is
I love books
I went to a book of that yesterday
We talked to Kelly Hart
Yes we did
Offer of Quicksilver
Yes
Quick silver
Huge book
Number one New York Times best sell
Yeah
And then back in there
When it was really
627 pages
Are you kidding me
That's a big book
That's a thick book
She told us she wrote that
In six weeks
She'd been banging around
In her head since 2017
You know she was in the country
She did a speak
event and I think she's doing Christchurch as well
and why did you go? Well
um Hachshay
Hachetchette
Hachet. No what is it? E T-T-T-E
Hachete. What is it Kahn? What is it Kahn?
Hachet. Oh the book company. Hachet the book company
Yep. Which I've done some stuff with before
Hachita. Said you want to come and I was like yep
and so I went along with Kowen
and everyone thought you were together
Yeah someone I was like oh
Vaughn's just asked if he can grab this book
because every time you go into their office
you can't leave without a book
and they were like, oh yeah, for your partner
and I was like, no, no, no, no, no, that's Vaughn.
Well, actually I was like, yeah, for Vaughn
and then I went, they sent partner.
So that's my Witcher book.
I've got the Witcher book.
Okay, I'm going to read that.
He's a book boy now.
I'm a book boy now.
I'm a book boy now.
Do you know, what I didn't know about this Quicksilver book,
which if you're into it, it's like romanticie,
like fantasy and romance.
Right.
Look at this guy in the front flesh.
He's a bit cute.
He's a fay.
He's a fay.
He's a fash.
He's a thousand-year-old, like, fairy dude.
A thousand.
God, can he even, what?
Get it up.
Yeah, can they age differently.
They age differently.
Also, this book.
Viagra on Viagra on Viagra.
They have to take like a five pill dose.
I love a book with a map in the front.
That tells me I'm going to be consulting that a lot.
I love a family tree.
Yes.
Game of Thrones.
Oh, yeah. Game of Thrones.
It needs a family tree.
Family tree.
It's more of a family like vine with.
how they all sort of like stay within a family.
What I didn't know about this
was this book was released in June 2024
online.
Yep.
And now it's like massive.
She's got a Netflix deal and everything.
That's where she was going after New Zealand.
She was going back.
But anyway, I was the only guy there.
That's not a huge surprise.
You were a minority.
Yeah, I was over six foot.
At one stage I went to the bathroom
and I came out and I was just like,
I can see clearly over everybody's head.
It's lovely, huh?
It's nice.
They have like beautiful wooden floors
And at one point, Vaughn went from one side to the other.
It was like, boom, boom.
Three, five, three, boom, thrash, man walking.
So anyway.
Do you feel a little bit more in touch with your sort of smut, girly side?
Well, that's what I, I'm going to give this a go because apparently the fight scene at the start of the book's really cool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I feel like it's right up your out.
Because when we talk to Kelly, that was Kelly when we're talking about D&D and whatnot, right?
Like it's very, a lot of cross, a lot of Venn diagram crossover.
gloss over.
With, like, your fantasy, D&D stuff in the smart
Romantasy world.
Yeah.
So, yeah, as the only man there, I feel like,
don't worry, guys, I represented well.
Yeah, good.
And you know what?
And another thing is, women were always afraid to hit the snack platter.
Yeah.
Smithy just parked himself up and ate like a block of cheese.
Me.
Like, I was just grabbing handfuls of mini tomatoes.
Oh, okay.
Crackers, oh, I'm not, shoving it all in.
It would start catering a women's only event.
Be like, why are these women just snibling?
They're picking a nibbling.
No.
No.
That man, he says,
to have a whole wheel of cheese.
That man is consuming dinner.
He's in a free meal.
Now Fletch, are you going to get on the
audio book of this?
No. It's a great audio book, though.
Is that?
Yeah. I honestly don't think Faye is for you, but hey.
Yeah.
Hey, don't knock it until you've tried it.
I'm reading again at the moment, but I've taken a break from smart.
I think my mind was getting too filthy.
What are you reading and said?
My favourite author's Kenfieler.
He writes like kind of historically based.
sort of huge epics.
And I'm reading one about the,
I don't know why this is so nerdy,
about the creation of Stonehenge.
But we go into the drama of the people around that time.
Is anyone going to hump?
Well, I will say having red...
Well, I don't imagine there'd be a celebratory hump.
When you get those little rocks up a good hump scene,
but I will say having red smut
almost exclusively for a couple of years.
When you do pick up non-smut, you're like...
It's like drinking Raro that's one session and two liters
rather than two sessions.
Get to it already.

Now nurses online have been sharing
some of the rudest comments
that they receive
Not only specific examples
But the common things that they hear
and like you'll recognise these instantly
you're just a nurse is a common thing
who would say that
why didn't you become a doctor
when is the real doctor coming
I don't want a male nurse
you only work three days a week
that must be nice
I will say we do roast our own
doctor friend Dr Shawnee for any working
not a full five day week
but we always have love for our nurses
we have deep love for our nurses
and know how hard to
they work and how underappreciate they are.
But imagine the amount of crap
that they receive, the stuff that they've heard.
Like, you always hear the stories about like
EDs with like drunk patients
and just the inappropriate
things that are said. I started that petition
for all nurses to have taisers.
I just thought just a little
do you know who would really get it?
I reckon nurses in elderly
care facilities.
Imagine the racism.
That's absolutely pouring out of dinner
and they lose the filter.
Yeah, yeah.
Granddad's inappropriate wandering hands.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, this is what I want to ask this morning, regardless of your work,
or nurse, doctor, or whatever, whatever you do,
what is the rudest thing someone has said to you in your workplace?
When, like, people that work in customer service or, like, are on phones.
Oh, my God.
People have ended up in tears.
Remember, after COVID happened, we had to have signs in businesses being like,
please be kind.
They're still up, Haley.
They're still up.
Some businesses still put up signs now saying, be nice to staff.
Please.
Watch your language with the staff
I mean it's absolutely ridiculous
Okay so whether you've had to deal with a customer
Or
We're already getting some stories
Teachers, teachers
Yeah teachers
Oh
There's some wild stories that already coming in
0800 Darsetam
We'd love to hear from you this morning
Call us
Currently we want to know
What is the rudest thing
Someone said to you at work
When they were rude to you
In your place of work
Nurses have been sharing online
Comments like
Why didn't you become a real doctor
I don't want a male nurse
Cute that you only work three days a week
Yeah, but for like 20 hours.
Yeah.
So we want to know what is the rudest thing that someone's done to you at your workplace.
And sadly, there is no shortage.
No shortage.
Of stories coming in this morning.
Nicole, what did somebody say at your work?
Hello.
So I'm in the car with my little one, so I can't exactly express exactly what I was said.
So I was six months pregnant with care.
I worked at a particular government agency, which I don't know if I should name or not.
I reckon.
This government agency deals with like financial hardships and things like that.
Okay.
So I've figured it out.
I've figured it out, but carry on in case someone hasn't.
Yep.
And so pretty much we were going through an application with this person,
and it wasn't successful.
And so I was a person that was telling this person in particular news
that they weren't successful.
And the cops of abuse that I got after that,
I ended up crying after the phone call because of the words that were said to me on the
Oh my God
You're six months pregnant
So the emotions are already
I was already hormonal
Already, yeah already not having a good time
Sorry, no so I'm sorry
Who's doing a burnout besides you?
Whereabouts are you calling from Nicole?
I'm driving my daughter today here at the moment
But what city are you?
In Fangapiroa
Oh
Just that car
Yeah they like they love a skitt over there
And when they finally get out of that bono near cake
Did you go hear it?
Yeah
It was very loud. It was very loud. Love it. Nicole, thank you for sharing.
Sorry that you had to deal with that.
So my mom now calls up. Whenever she calls up, she thinks of me on the other end of the phone
because I told her that story.
Humanised.
Yes.
100%.
It's weird, though, that people don't think that when they're talking to another human being.
It is weird when you've ordered a couch and it's broken and it's taken over a year to replace.
You know what I mean?
It's getting harder and harder to be good to you.
Co-co Republic
Yeah
Thanks to Cole
Let's go to Ethan
Ethan
What was it that was said to you
By a customer
Well yeah
So I was working at
Bunnings at a cash register
And of course I'm 16, 17
You've never been insulted
At that age
By anyone other than your friends
And when it suddenly comes from someone
So much older than you
It's like, whoa
And a stranger
Yeah
Yeah like a peer-to-peer roasting
That's a point
That's a sweet spot there at 16.
There's an horrendous thing.
Oh, I've been thrown in the deep end here.
Like, this is real life now.
Okay.
And so the garden department was notorious for always changing the prices of things on the fly.
But I wouldn't change the system.
Okay.
So I'd scan stuff up and once in a while it'd be like, oh, that scanned at this price.
It's supposed to be that price.
I can't just believe you.
But, yeah.
So would you be able to...
Yeah.
So, and 16-year-old me doesn't have the authority.
to change it, they start calling me
you're stupid, they call me an idiot, they
ask me for the, you know,
call up the manager.
Ethan. And they say, you're accusing me of
calling me a liar, and I'm just like, no,
I didn't, I didn't say that. I didn't
do that. And when
like, we finally get it sorted out,
they, um, she storms off.
Her husband pays and he just turns me and says,
don't worry, mate, it's not you.
Oh.
And he said it, he said it was so
much sadness in his eyes.
Oh, Ethan, yeah.
Because he lives with it, Ethan.
He lives with that daily, yeah.
Oh, gosh.
That's a good tip, though.
I might try that next time I'm in a place,
just be like, nah, that said on the sign it was 10 bucks.
You know, just try it and see if I've got a 10-a-year-old.
I feel like, fine, all right.
Don't try it on 16-year-olds.
They get scared.
Yeah, exactly.
And then I'm getting something nice and cheap, Ethan.
Oh, that's so good.
Ethan, thank you.
Let's go to Anonymous.
Anonymous.
How rude was a customer to you?
Hey
It's a
interesting story
and it's a high profile person
so I shouldn't really
name them
but yeah
I'll the next slide
as he's like
I'm wondering
if we can invoke
the show rule
where we just go
off here to learn
who it is
so we just get a
better picture painter
oh yeah
I like that idea
okay
we'll just go
off here
we're just going to go off here
we're just going to go off here
Okay, we're back on it. We know things you don't know.
Yeah.
Okay, carry on with this story on us.
So you can't defame a dead person, so...
Yeah, you're all right.
Can you not?
Let's not, though.
Let's still not say, though.
Let's still not say.
Anonymous, you were on a flight.
Yes, on a flight, this particular person crosses over multiple times,
and they were banned from another airline, so we got stuck with them.
And so we, you know, doing normal 5-10 duties, everyone just things with trolley-dollies,
but there's a lot more to it than that.
And he's very misogynist and would say things like,
how long did it take to put that face on this morning,
a big amount of makeup wearing.
Big part.
Wow.
He dropped his book, and he was in the window seat in business class,
and then would click at MacBank.
click his fingers for me to try and bend it down to go and pick it up from in the window.
Oh, God.
Wow.
Different bathrooms, obviously, a business class bathroom,
but it's also the handicapped bathroom.
So anyone from economy who is handicapped can also use that bathroom.
And there was a woman handicapped person that was using it,
and he didn't realize that they were handicapped,
but was waiting outside saying she's using my mom.
Oh my God, mate.
This does not surprise me with this person.
This does not surprise me, which I think people could probably work out,
considering he was banned from another airline quite high profile.
And he's dead.
Anonymous, he's sharing some text messages in.
Anytime anonymous hears a click, she's like, go.
It's taken back.
The rudest thing someone's customer said to you.
I am a teacher, DP.
Deputy principal?
Yes.
Department head.
Something.
Yes.
Carry on.
Had a delightful parent go off her rocker
cursing me because my teacher aide was, in her words, coloured.
Oh my God.
It is 2025.
And she didn't want her son working with her.
It was horrendous.
I had to be professional, but holy shit, I wanted to throw down.
You want to grab the clock the gunstabler and just give her a couple of rounds.
A couple of staples to the tenfold.
Yeah, the thigh.
I had a year 10 student last week say to me,
just walk away, miss, or you'll be the next one to get effed up.
for F word.
My daughter was 14.
Working as a waitress
and a customer handed her a business card
for a dermatologist.
Oh, that's terrible.
That's horrible.
I was working as a substitute
teacher in London
and a child called me a effing mongrel C word.
Lovely we chat.
I had a friend that did
her teacher's placement in London
in like a raw off school
and she said every day she cried to and from
on the subway.
It was just like...
Really?
And they were awful to her.
Yeah.
Horrendous.
Terrible children.
Teacher here, just yesterday a year 12 called me a bitch
after I requested that people take their headphones out
because headphones and the phones that they're listening to
are that ban at schools.
But a year 12 took it upon herself to call me the B word.
Wow.
That would be a great theme for a movie.
A retired teacher that's been worn down
over all the years of bullying and abuse from students.
Snaps.
Snaps and kills all of them.
as adults.
At a school in London.
Hunts down the ones that made their life.
But they're also criminals.
Yeah, they're all criminals now.
Yeah, they're bad people, so they deserve it.
So we're on board.
They're the anti-hero.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's a great movie idea, right?
Yeah, that's great.
Yeah.
All right.
I used to work in customer service
for a government department.
My two favorites that I was called on the phone was
a foreskin.
Because you're but sort of like useless.
Fun but useless.
And a bitch-ass peasant.
Bitchescent!
Peasant!
Why are people so mean?
PE teacher here?
I get abused every time a kid doesn't make one of the sports teams.
I'm like, sorry, your kid's just not good at sports.
Happy Tuesday.
Yeah.
I work at a vet clinic.
A client told me she would knock me out
because I wouldn't give her unprescribed medication for her dog.
Knock you out.
Someone's like someone on the dog pills.
Yeah, yeah.
My dog needs kidney me.
My dog needs kicking me.
I'm a secondary teacher and a student that's once failed one of her assessments
and the mother came in to discuss it
and to get me to change the grades which I said I wouldn't
unless she verbally abused me and threatened to have her husband come and beat me up
okay okay
oh god she wouldn't be timbers
um someone said a female electrician here and every single day it's the looks really
and the assumption that I'm the apprentice or just there to like help them
in some way when I'm a fully qualified.
I think females in the trade would get that all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah, sadly.
Let's hope for a swift change to that attitude.
Maybe if you don't wear so much makeup, you'll understand it better.
That was a comment I got when I wouldn't give her a refund that she was not entitled to.
Had to call security because the look I gave her after she said that apparently calls her to launch over the counter at me.
Oh, my gosh.
It was because I gave her a look.
There are so many.
I've barely scratched the surface.
Oh, man, we're going to be nice to people, just doing their job.
I work at a private school.
I asked a parent not to park illegally, and they said,
you need to be reminded who, do you need to be reminded who pays your wages?
Oh, my, that's so ugly.
That's so ugly.
Catsy or Craig would never have said that at your private school, would they?
They would never.
Mostly because they'd just park the helicopter on the field, though.
No, they just sent the driver.
They never had to deal with dropping me off.
Play ZDM's, Fletch, Vaughn and Haley.
Now, there used to be a very popular song about area codes
and having particular ladies in different area codes.
Really well put.
I've got different ladies in various suburbs across the world.
Suburbs across the world, suburbs across the world.
So zip coding is not really a new, I guess, term in terms of the dating world,
but it's doing the rounds.
Okay.
And there's two ways to interpret it.
If you're zip coding in your dating life right now.
One of them is, we hear about app fatigue all the time.
Yes.
Not me.
I love it.
She's not jaded yet
I love it
It's a good laugh sometimes
The apps
What are you doing there mate
What's that about
But I get that if you are looking for your
Your soul mate
That you can get app fatigue
So one way of using zip coding as dating
Is narrowing
Your radius on your apps
So much that you restrict the bubble
Because otherwise you're just going swat
Swire Swamp
If you're for example in Wellington
And you've got all of Wellington
you just can get over it.
And half of the North Island
and a little bit of Nelson.
Parapara umu's in there, you know,
and you've got carpety coast and the rest of that.
You're going to get fatigue because the pool's too big.
So you zip code it by going,
I'm just going to go 602-1.
I think that's a tie-tie from memory.
Right, okay.
Where I used to live.
Do you know what zip code stands for?
Zips.
Z-information, please.
Is that what it is?
That's really good.
I like that.
Zone improvement plan.
Oh, boring.
So, like, it was, what was put in place to give all the numbers,
and then it just kind of stuck.
A zip code.
It was only supposed to be a temporary name for them.
But we don't call it, we call it postal code here.
Post codes.
That makes more sense.
Postcode, yeah, yeah.
We can call this postcode, eh.
So you only date people nearby, restricting your,
your sort of swipeable matches so much so that it's just a smaller poll.
Helps, if you meet someone, it's a more efficient way of dating.
You know, we're not driving across the bloody.
Remember I?
Connected with a gentleman in East Auckland and I'm West.
And you may as well have gone to Hamilton.
Literally took longer than a flight to Wellington to get there.
Absolutely not.
And then so the other way of zip coding is a location-dependent relationship.
And I'll say, this sounds like gay marriage.
Okay.
Partners are together only when they're in the same zip code.
Okay.
Single when they're apart.
So this is basically an open relationship.
I have lots of friends in open relationships with this arrangement.
So it's not open when we're at home.
and we're just living our daily life.
But if you go away, say you're on tour
or you're a travelling artist or you, whatever,
who are going overseas and I'm not coming,
then we're single and we can do whatever we want.
Go for it.
A form of ethical non-monogamy where rules are clear.
Because you say, if you're in the 0820,
then you're mine and there's no naughtiness.
But if you leave and you head out to a 4-731, have asked.
Okay, so you're in an open relationship
and you're going out without your partner.
Yeah.
And you go out to some.
bars but you're just in the suburb next door technically
well that's up to you to do the rules you might have to have a list on your phone of
the acceptable zip codes i'd just get an Uber and go with them to wherever wasn't on
the list so you see someone within within your like not allowed to realm you're like hey
do you want to get an Uber out of here roughly about 32 minutes away right I don't know
by New Zealand Postcode rules the boundaries of the post codes we need to head to this
suburb and then we can do whatever we want.
Do you know, I was just looking up New Zealand
post codes. So there's a whole lot of unused
one. There's 18
156 post codes.
Yeah. And, you know,
they go from, they start with right up
north in Fongare,
Marsden Point, 01.
Is that, someone's postcode?

The question I want to ask you,
lovely listener, and this could be quite juicy, I think.
When did you fall in love with someone that you shouldn't have?
Oh, yeah, okay.
Because there is a great story they've been reading online.
It's juice.
It is juicy.
on juice. So there was
a woman. She had three kids.
She was married happily with her husband.
Absolutely. Just life is great.
Three kids. Woo-hoo. Yes.
Tradition.
Then her husband goes away.
Her husband goes away
for quite a while for work.
Okay. And she starts to feel a bit lonely.
She's longing human contact.
So when her five-year-old school
throws a Mother's Day kind of fear,
she's like, I'm going to go along. What a good chance to
converse and connect with other adults
after just being a mother of three,
a single mother of three.
She goes to this Mother's Day stall
and there she sees
her five-year-old son's teacher
Miss Emerson
female.
That was a plot twist I didn't see coming.
Yeah, plot twist.
I thought there was going to be
a hot principal or a hot teacher.
She says that everyone keeps on saying
isn't Miss Emerson wonderful with the kids
and she said that's not what I noticed.
I noticed when she noticed me.
Miss Emerson, lock's eyes on mama.
They have a connection at the mother's
stay stool, they start communicating a little bit more.
Wait, and we're the husband's overseas on business.
Daddy, Daddy, we don't even thinking about Dad right now.
She starts to make more excuses to go to the school to visit, you know,
oh, maybe I could talk to you about my sons, da-da-da-da-da-da.
The connection is undeniable.
Eventually, this teacher, and by the way, this woman's never been with another woman before.
Oh, okay.
They start an affair.
Is Ms. Emerson gay?
A trained lesbian?
I think she's trained lesbian.
Did she go to lesbian polity?
I don't know if she's got a certificate.
She went to the court.
But she's got the manicure.
Okay.
Well, she's got the manicure.
So that is a clear sign of a certified lesbian.
Because the formal qualifications just to get your foot in the door of lesbianism.
Absolutely.
And then once you're in.
I'm going to walk the walk.
So she starts as a fair with her five-year-old teacher who is a woman who she shouldn't fall in love with.
Wait, so what's happened now?
Where are we in present day?
The writing of this article, she's living a double life.
Oh, right.
So she's continuing.
She has not left the husband, but she is deeply in love with Ms. Emerson, the teacher of her five-year-old son.
And obviously she can't tell people because then it's like the education is impacted and the marriage is impacted.
So she's ended up living this double life.
So she tells the internet.
And now we're talking about it on the other side of the world.
Hey, but love, love loves whoever love loves.
Yeah.
Love is love.
We've already got some text messages in.
Okay, great.
This is one I want to know.
Who did you fall in love with that you definitely shouldn't have?
And we can, if you want your text messages can be anonymous.
They can be.
Because maybe you're in the situation where it's your leading ongoing affair or something.
Hit us kick us off for me.
My stepdad's sister's ex-husband.
Okay, wait, I need to draw a tree.
Family tree.
So their stepdad.
Yep.
Their stepdad had a sister.
Yep.
And the sister was married to a guy and then that marriage broke up and they were, they got together.
No one liked it at first but 14 years
And we're still going strong
Oh, there you go

They said my only explanation now is that it was the 80s.
Okay.
So they're still going?
Or no, this doesn't sound like, who knows?
Okay.
Ooh, hold on.
Just got to read a couple of here.
There's a little bit of pre-reading going on here.
I'll jump in.
Are you on Instagram?
No, you read the Instagram.
Okay.
Because the text machine just flooded with these.
A flat mate, someone said on Instagram,
whoopsies.
However, best decision, he is the love of my life.
But awkward though
When you're like
Hey, stop having long showers
But I love you
Did you eat my lunch out of the fridge
But I love you
Yeah
You left all the lights on again
Someone said
I fell in love with a crazy beautiful musician
16 years younger than me
We lasted six years together though
Before it was over
My husband's employee
He was 15 years my junior
He used to come around to our house
Often for work meetings
We had an affair for six months
Nobody knows about it
Wow!
I fell for my trucky...
Also, can I just say
Balzy sleeping with the boss's wife?
Very.
Ballsy!
Ballsy, moose.
That's a...
That's an undercover alpha.
Yeah, that is.
You're not getting your holidays paid out
if he finds that out.
Yeah, no.
Legally, he should.
Legally, you should.
I fell for my truckie regular.
I work at a pub.
Oh, yeah?
Two years ago, got married to my husband
since then and still seeing old mate truck driver.
I can't leave my husband and I can't end it with the other guy.
I'm in too deep.
The other guy knows about my husband and doesn't care, so that doesn't help.
It's called ethical non-monogamy.
What is it, trucky regular, I work at a pub.
Oh, I pretty delivers the kegs.
That's what I was thinking.
Does he deliver or does he just call in?
Don't know.
Do you might just call in for a pint-in-home or something.
Someone said anonymous plays.
I didn't fall in love, but I've developed a big crush on a guy
who was my undergrad student.
I'm a uni lecturer.
Oh, this is a trope.
Happily engaged to my partner of 10 years,
but I can't seem to shake off this crush.
Can I break it down a little bit?
Happily engaged to my partner of 10 years,
you're engaged after 10 years,
it feels like, you know, if you're going to take that next to you.
Don't bother.
Shake it off and get you, itch that scratch.
Scratch that itch.
Agreed.
Scratch that itchy, itchy, scratchy.
Felt madly in love with Jamie Oliver in a dream,
and I shouldn't have.
It took years to feel neutral about him after that.
He's a family man, you back off.
He'd always cook amazing dinners, though.
He would make me fat.
Jamela would make me fat.
Yeah.
What are my dad's best mate?
Someone texted.
Oh, my dad, oh my gosh.
I fell in love with my training partner.
She was slash is married.
We ended it.
I stopped training.
Got married to get over it.
I only to pass each other in traffic one day.
And she followed me to my destination.
Shut up.
Haley Sprow.
Nick Minut.
Never was.
You are kidding me.
Oh my God.
Followed me.
clocking eyes and being like, follow it.
Rip a fat Ui.
It would have been pretty hot to see someone
rip a fat Ui for you.
Like they just can't hold it back.
Rip a fat Ui.
Get under behind you and follow you to destination.
Oh my God, that's bucket list item.
I want someone to rip a fat Ui for me.
You know what I imagine?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's nice, that's nice.
I couldn't shake a crush I had for my besties X.
I forced myself to cut them off when they broke up,
but I still think about it constantly.
Wow.
Yeah, it's a no go, isn't it?
I started sleeping with my boss who had a partner.
He initiated it all.
And he left her for me.
Now I'm fighting for my life to get away.
But I can't because I'm in love.
Trope.
Trope.
Trope.
This is why they're tropes.
It's happening.
Yeah.
I'm a buhapap but da da-da-tete-da-da-da.
Just reading a head there.
My dad had an affair with one of my older friends.
Oh, Dad.
Dad.
Dad.
Dad.
Dad.
She's five years old of me.
They've been together married for 20 years.
Although I don't think
Although I do think she's slowly killing him
With her terrible oily cooking
Well she's going to kill him the old-fashioned way
Give him cholesterol
Oh my God, yeah
Just up the life insurance and keep feeding him
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, fried eggs
Yeah, yeah, buttery fried eggs
I fell in love with my host brother's friends
While I was studying abroad when I was 20
14,000, 140,000 from home
Where was this on the moon?
I think you mean 14,000?
Is it even possible?
That is 14,000 on
You've added a zero.
No, it's not this three.
Oh, I'm missing.
The zeros.
It's 14,000.
I do apologize.
$140,000 or something.
Okay.
So I traveled, I'm a Martian, and I traveled.
That's another trope.
Hot trope.
Hot trope, aliens.
Did long distance for two years.
Been together 14 years now have a house a dog and a one-year-old girl.
And probably another passport, too.
That's good.
Hot.
Someone said, I'd rip a fat Ui for you, Haley.
Well, come on then.
I'll be driving on the northwestern.
No, you can't rip a fat Ui in the North Western.
Yeah.
There's a barrier
How much do you want me?
Oh, there's a barrier.
You want them to Tokyo drift.
Life is barriers.
You want them to Tokyo drift off at the Teada too.
Oh, I'm a real friend.
You've got to cut through that place
as the emergency services you,
like the police.
Yes, yes, yes, yeah.
Yeah, it's naughty, but, you know.
How much do you want me?
How much do you want Hayley?
Yeah.
And we want to see a rip a fat you instead of I was 16.
Life is nothing but a series of barricades, you know?
Do we let them stop us?
No, we don't.
I could have written that the original story.
story you told, except I left my husband for my daughter's
female teacher. We were together for seven years. Her and I are still very good friends now
some seven years later. Wow. They did it. They did it. Okay.
These people are having affairs of ruining the lives
of other people and if the kids are involved, it disgust me. If you're unhappy in your
relationship, leave. If you're happy in a relationship, don't go looking.
Yeah. Great words. Did you read the one who said I could have written that story
that was started? Just literally. Just literally now. What is wrong with you?
She's thinking about someone ripping a fat U.S. I am.
What are they driving when they rip a fat U.E for you?
No, I was reading the message of the moral high ground
And I wouldn't have read it out loud
It's sort of not as sort of in the spirit of laugh out louder
You think I
I poo poohed it with the moral high ground
Yeah, I sort of thought we're having fun
All affairs, all juicy
And they're just like, oh, you're ruining lives
Yeah, well
We're going to get one life
Jesus
I haven't pre-read this one
Okay, we'll just roll the dice
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
And that listener is why we pre-read.
We read a hit.
Play Z-M's Fletchhorn and Haley.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Happy.
Happy Ada Lovelace day.
Tell us what it is.
Ada Lovelace is a day to commemorate, celebrate and extend a warm invitation to
women to be involved in STEM.
Science, technology, engineering maths.
Okay, what's the theme this week again?
It's the Matilda Effect.
And we're celebrating it.
When men take credit for stuff that women do.
When men took credit for women's scientific conventions,
scientific technological engineering or mathematical.
And today is Ada Lovelace Day.
So we're looking at Ada Lovelace and the effect of the Matilda effect on her.
She was often celebrated as the world's first computer programmer.
She was the daughter of a poet, but she was all about maths.
And she worked with a guy called Charles Babbage.
Now Babbage is spout like cabbage, except with a bag.
I'd call him Charles Cabbage.
Well, his nicknames would be C. Babbage.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that actually just sounds like a fun way of saying cabbage.
Is there really Cibabbage in the fridge?
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to make a slough because I've got a big old head of cababage.
Charles Babbage.
Charles Babbage.
So he was designing an analytical engine, which was a mechanical computer that was never built, but, you know, the theory was all there.
Wait, what year are we?
We're talking to the 1800s.
We're talking to A.A.
She was won in 1815.
She's very glamorous.
And died in 1852.
These women die young.
She died of cervical cancer
Yesterday we heard about Rosaline Franklin
She died of breast cancer
So these women are short but very impactful lives
So she studied in Italian paper about
This mechanical analytical engine
Added her own extensive notes
She wrote an algorithm for the machine
To calculate the Bernoulli numbers
Which is from the Italian
Benoulli
Benouli
Also a funny word like cabbage
We're getting lots of funny words
We are
So effectively
she wrote the first ever computer program
before computers existed.
Right, Windows 1.
Yeah. Windows 1.
Microsoft 1.
Yeah, she sat down and opened a window
and wrote it at the desk and she's like,
Windows would be great now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just put that in my footnotes.
Look out the windows and have a think about what I want to call this.
She also imagined and hypothesized and write notes
that this machine could go beyond arithmetic.
It could compose music and it could create art
if the right rules and data were inserted it.
However, when she died early and got sick
and her mum locked her away and made her a little bit reclusive.
Cooka bananas.
Yeah, Cuckabanas.
Babbage took all of her notes and was like,
look at this thing I've done.
What?
And for over a century,
her insight was written off as poetic whimsy
because it was so far ahead of what people deemed possible at the time
that it was just like, oh, it's a little bit of creative.
Wasn't she a funny old woman having it?
some kooky wimcical thoughts.
The fairy thoughts.
And old Chababababage took the ideas that would work
and kind of put them off as at her own.
But today she's credited as the first visionary of computing.
So when did she get her credit?
Like when did they realize?
Well, like a hundred years after a death.
And in the 1900s?
She would have loved this day.
Yeah.
So she sketched out, you know, every sort of like modern computing
program and language could be traced back to her.
as a mother of computing
and she did it all by candlelight in the 1840s
I'm going to go wearing a frock and a corset
and a big petticoat
I just saw like a painting of her
probably having to take shallow breaths
because of that
God, can't breathe
because of the corset
but it is Ada Lovelace Day today
I'm happy Aida Lovelace Day today
And I will never forget this day again
And I hope we celebrate every year
Ada Lovelace
She'd be blown away by my iPad I reckon
Oh dear and the videos of Stephen Hawking
Doing the pole vault
Imagine her rapping her ears around an iPod nano even
You know, she just would have been like, it's so small
And yet it's playing so much music
Look at all it can do
Yeah, and who is Beyonce?
Who is Beyonce?
Who is so much to fill you in on?
God, Madonna, who?
What?
Strapping, Ada.
You've got about 200 years of fairly intense culture to catch up on.
So today's fact of the day in the Matilda effect
was Ada Lovelace, the mother of modern computing,
had her work stole by a guy called Charles Babbage
for about 100 years.
Fact of the day.
Tay, Tay, Tay, day, day.
Two-da-da-da-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do-do-to-do-to-do.
Two points.
Someone said, C. Babbage was my Rockquest band name.
Appreciate.
Secondly, someone said, I did a project on Charles Babbage as an eight-year-old girl,
and none of this information was about, was available.
As an eight-year-old girl, as an eight-year-old girl,
it would be better to have Aida to look up there than Shababbage.
Yeah, we're going to have to read.
Vogue that whatever grade
You got nullity. You haven't passed NCAA, which means you didn't get
university entrance, which means if you have a diploma, it's
It's actually null and void. Your bachelor's is useless.
The impact on woman by Charles Babbage just continues.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Haley.

You have to be in the suburb.
You need to call us 0800 dials at M.
Let's see, randomly generating suburb noise.
It is randomly generated by ChatGPT,
who's keeping a list of everywhere we've been,
and I said spread around the love,
Because today we're going to Nelson
and we're going to Tahunanui.
Oh, you're great.
Tahunanui.
Do you know what?
There'll be a lot of people
because there's only two ways
to drive into Nelson.
Yeah, but...
There's around the bays
and through the middle.
Is there much living?
Yeah, a lot of people.
Yeah, a lot of motels.
So you might be at
Jump and Trampoline Park.
Oh no, you'd be just outside
actually if you're at the jump.
What is it, Tahunanui?
Tahunanui.
I'm going to be in Nelson
in a couple of weeks with my show.
I love Nelson.
It's so cool.
I always have such a good time there.
Good food.
Weirdly, the Tahunanui beach is just out.
So what suburbs are that in?
Oh, well, sorry.
Where's the beach, you're screwed.
Oh, 800,000.
If you're right now in the suburb of Tihunanui,
as defined by the New Zealand Postal Code,
then you, if you're the first caller through, will win $10 cash.
Jessica joins us.
Good morning, Jessica.
Welcome to the show.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Whereabouts in Tahoon, Nui are you?
I am right outside the Tahunanui night and day shop.
Oh, they do a good lolly.
Oh, is that getting out of Tahoon?
Ooh.
Okay.
No, is there a smack in the middle?
Smack bang in the middle of it.
That's good.
We're going to need some form of proof, though.
Mm-hmm.
You know, usually we look at Google Street View and kind of ask you what's around.
Is there anywhere around, is there anyone outside?
that you could like talk to
to get to vouch for the fact that you're in Tahuna?
No, I'm currently sitting in my car.
Okay, what's the name of the
recreation grounds over the road?
The Tahunanoi Recreation Ground?
No, there's a sign.
There's a sign.
We're just on Google map.
There's a sign.
There's an archway with a sign on the top.
I'm just down from that.
I'm outside the Tahunanoi Bowls Club.
Boles Club.
Go to the Bowls Club.
We're just going to go to see.
straight. You're sorry to put you through this
Yes, Chris. We're not very
trustworthy because one person did try to scam us
and they said they were in the suburb but they were actually
omitted out of it. So we don't
accept that. Is there an Indian restaurant there?
Yes, there is. There is an Indian restaurant
I've actually bought butter chicken from there. It's really nice.
Is it good? Yeah, did you get a narn as well or did you opt for
no narn? Yes, I got a cheesy garlic cart.
Of course you did!
Yeah! Of course you did!
You sometimes you're just like, I'm just going to get a garlic nun,
and then you see cheese, and it's only 50 more cents.
I don't know how they can justify a 50 cent increase for the cheese now.
I happily pay it.
No, because you'd think it would be more like a dollar or two with the price of cheese.
Don't know, nobody tell them.
It's cheesy garlic none.
Don't tell you.
Are you parked up, are you stopped outside?
I am outside on the spot.
So you're out.
Are you moving?
No, no, no.
I'm, I was.
You're outside.
Indian restaurant?
Yeah, I'm just between the Indian restaurant and
out on the spot and down
from the Tahunanui night day.
I want you to tell me the, I want you to tell me
the phone number on the Indian restaurant sign.
Can you see the sign?
Free plug for the Indian place as well.
What's the name of it?
Targe Indian restaurant.
Well, yeah, that would have been a great,
I know, born.
Yeah, now he wants it.
Oh, no, she's already, she didn't know that.
She could drive it.
I think she's there.
No one knows the Indian restaurant phone number off the top of the
I think she's there, I believe her.
I can't say it, because I wear glasses, so I'm actually quite blind.
That's what a criminal would say.
This feels like criminal activity.
Yeah, she's a big, says.
It's going to be a big scan.
I think, I think she's there.
Are we awarding this, Fawn?
What else is next door to it?
We need to find one more, one more verification thing.
We can't get this.
Down the back, there is actually a store called Man in the Van,
um, storage.
And then there's also a place called Power Tools next to it.
Yeah, I'll say Power Tools.
Yeah, it's an Indian restaurant.
There's actually a picture.
at table with an umbrella.
Hold on, hold on.
She's verifying that on Google, man.
How would she know that?
She's actually dead right.
She's right.
Oh, fantastic, Jessica.
Congratulations, winner of today's $10 suburb to Hunanui in Nelson.
Wow.
Congratulations, a life-changing $10.
We're going to transfer that instantly to your bank account, Jessica.
How do you feel?
I feel so ecstatic.
I finally won something on your show.
I call in all the time.
Wow.
Yeah.
Do you know what I'll say, Jessica?
How many cheesy garlic nans is this?
Two.
One and a bit.
Yeah, one and a bit,
because you've got to have the rice
and you've got to have the butter chicken.
Yeah, man, I want to curry so bad now.
I'm obviously not covering the whole thing.
I will cover up to $10 with the curry.
It might be a lunch special there in a tariff in a restaurant.
He's not made a money.
Congratulations, Jessica, winner of today's $10.
By the way, that phone number 03-4-8-5-4-80.
If you want to get yourself a beautiful cheesy garlic,
You've heard it from Jessica, that's a Halloween.
I want these people to sell out of butter chicken tonight.
You're in Tar Hunanui.
We should do this.
We should do a segment called sell out of place.
Sell it out.
But one item.
One item only one item.
One item at one place.
Everyone has to go there today in order the butter chicken and a cheesy garlic narn.
Yeah.
We wanted so much that everyone's going in for a butter chicken and a cheesy garlic nana that they're like, what's happened?
Yeah, they don't know.
You don't say anything.
You don't say, I'm here because...
Fletchwan and Haley said to come down and buy a butterchicken.
You don't do that.
You don't tell them.
It just turns out and there's just a line of people and you're like, knowing, not to her and
everyone's like, why all of a sudden is it the butter chicken with a cheesy garlic night?
They're like normally on a Wednesday we sell like five of these things.
Why is everyone's warning days tonight?
I love that idea.
Anyway, congratulations, Jessica.
Play Z-M's Fletchbourne and Haley.
Well, I don't know whether or not this clip I'm about to play has got an appropriate language in it.
Oh, no.
I don't remember swearing being in the show
There was a lot of...
It was a TV show
Yeah
Well a TV show
Has announced a comeback
The Inbetweens
Which was massive in like
2010
I feel like
The Inbetweens was when I first saw
The Inbetweens
It ran from
2008 was the first episode
Through to 2010
And then there was a couple of movies
We got to meet a couple of them
In studio
Yes we did
Was that
Simon and Will?
Was the movie?
Was the movie?
Was that the movie?
It might have been in between us two
when they went to Australia.
Yeah.
The first in between is they went to Europe
and then the second in between is
they went on a trip to Australia.
I never watched it
and I know that I've missed out.
Now who was saying
James Buckley?
He's got a podcast.
Yeah, with his wife.
I've seen clips of that and they're funny
mate.
They have a beer and they're laughing
and yeah, they're really, they're good.
I haven't listened.
I've only seen clips online.
Right.
You listen, Shannon?
No, I've just seen, Colin.
I've just seen...
Well, no.
Yeah, but then I talk.
talked so it's fine. I've just
seen a lot of clips and stuff and he reveals
quite a bit about the show and like
sometimes reveals things that he does
that his wife is like, how am I married to you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He seems a lot like
his character. He was probably the least likeable
character. It's wildly
unlikable character. But then he's
turned around and we've spoken about this
years ago since
the show he's become a millionaire
alone from Cameo. Yeah.
Like he would just literally churn
out hundreds of Cameo video.
that people pay for.
Like, happy birthday, Haley.
Yeah, thanks, mate.
Do some lines from the show.
And he's, yeah, he's made more than a million.
And that's pounds, by the way.
So it's like $2 million.
Jesus.
Alone.
He's done more than 40,000 videos since joining the site in 2020.
I got it.
Who is that?
Just a friend.
You've made a new friend.
Oh, a friend.
Since one of you had other friends.
Oh, friend.
Friend.
I remember when he was doing trials at West Ham.
He's moved into the area.
He's just some guy.
Some guy?
Oh, he's just some guy.
Oh, he's just some guy?
That's all it is.
Just a friend from when Jay had trials at West Island and they never happened.
Don't forget the thumbs up.
Oh, friend.
Oh, new friend.
Oh, my God.
What am I listening to?
I wonder how it's aged.
Terribly?
Some of it probably not so well.
No, yeah.
Anya, if you could say that about literally any show now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you know what?
Like, weirdly, on Samsung's, you know how they've got Samsung
TV and it's got all this array of
television shows. The other day it popped up that
the Beverly Hillbillies was on. A TV show
that was made in 1962. I used to
watch it with my granddad when I was a kid and even then
it was old. And I was like,
I want to how poorly a TV show
has aged
since 1962. Yeah.
And I watched it. It had aged fantastically.
I think because there was a period.
It would have been I laugh.
But it would have been so safe.
Yes. Because you couldn't have done anything on TV there
that was offensive. We went safe and
we went a bit outrageous and now we're back.
But then like the casual racism of the 1960s surely would have leached into
and maybe, I only watched two or three episodes.
Did some minstrels come out and do a dance?
Yeah, exactly.
I was waiting for it.
I was waiting for it, but it didn't.
So when's it coming back, sorry?
Well, it's the creators that have come out and said they're working on something, eh?
Yeah.
So it's probably probably a while.
But 15, 16, 17 years since they were high schoolers,
so they could be playing parents.
Hey, you've lost my.
Or could it be their kids?
Yeah, but they wouldn't be, well, they might be high school-aged, but I don't know.
It's just them in their, like, mid-30s, still doing the same stuff.
Oh, another one in the bag.
It's a Versace bag as well.
If you enjoyed that, give us a rating and review, and be sure to tell your mates.
You don't sound sincere there, boy.
I'm just reading what's written here.
Play Z-M's Fletchhorn and Haley.
