Bullied gay, tanager, Cameron, joins the Marine Corps with his best friend, despite risks in boot camp, they experienced profound personal change, but danger set in the 90s? Yeah, although it's based on a memoir, and I read that it was changed from 1979 to 1991. Oh, okay. So, like, you know when you watch one of these shows, and then you're like, how much of that was real?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you realize, most of it is liberties. Yeah. But a great show. So you stayed up late, 20 past 8. That's crazy. I know. I was quarter to 12.

Quarter to 12. And you know what? My face shows it. There is a mirror in our lift on the way from the car. I have to confront him. Every morning I just go, and one of the things that shows most, right, when you're tired, it's the eyes. And it's the under eyes.

The puff, the bags, that crease. Well, I have great news for you early risers. Okay. It's in fashion. Fatigue is fashionable. So people are saying, this is all online. Everyone's like, this is the hot new look. Remember when like looking like you were on heroin?

Yeah. Was sort of the vibe. Kind of like wispy and greasy and thin and fragile. Yeah. Well, now looking exhausted is the new trend. They say it looks hot, sexy and a little bit French. A little bit French. Having under-eye bags.

Okay. People say, you know, like, Kristen Stewart kind of rocks this, sort of like, bagged out, tired, kind of look like, oh, my God, I can't be bothered. Fatigue is fashionable. They're saying it's like a rebellion against the sort of high-maintenance polish. It was all about putting the bright concealer under your eyes to hide the bags, and now we're not doing it. It's a wider movement towards realness. Okay, well, if you're up at this time of the morning, this is great news. Lean in, you're saying.

Lean in. Lean in. Jesus. Sorry, I'm just reflecting. Like, there's so much going on in my face. The eye bags. It was truly the least of my worries. Yeah.

But they're saying embrace them and some people, not only just embracing them as in like not hiding them, but enhancing them. Like getting a little bit of red or a little bit of, you know, dark shadow and kind of like shadowing them in. How bad is it when, you know, You're not even feeling tired and someone says to you.

Are you okay? God, are you a big night last night? And you're like, actually, I didn't drink at all last night. It literally happens to women all the time. People go, oh my God, are you okay? And you're like, I'm just not wearing makeup, which means this is my normal face. This is just my straight face.

top six. Hello there. Well, Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello, I love us. there's been a look into the ever-increasing costs of funerals. The Prosperity Project podcast, which is an IHart Radio and NZZMe, there's fantastic synergy there for the company. Great synergy for the company.

It's a KPI. We saw our KPI graph the other day. We did. Looking very good. It was looking really good, and I'll say we've contributed. You were on your phone. Yeah, yeah. I was going to say, I didn't say a KPI graph.

you were in the meeting. There was a whole slideshow, huh? There was a whole slideshow. You were on reels. Yeah, you were doing reels, and every now and then you'd leave the volume on. It was very awkward. You did.

You started playing a reel and the boss looked over. Yeah, that's okay. Anyway, the graph's looking great for the KPI's. Ding away because I think by Christmas we'll be hitting those. That's us. We're on track. We're on track. Well, they cost a fortune.

I remember, um... Weddings do? Funerals. No, funerals. Sorry, funerals. And weddings. famously both very expensive. One you kind of have to have.

That's actually absolutely completely up to you. A funeral. Yeah. Do you know my pop didn't have a funeral because he died at COVID times and I think he would have been elated about that. Oh, my granddad, my popper, Ted, would have shit the bed if he'd known how much his funeral cost. Oh, totally. He would have been living that anybody spent that amount of money.

I'm actually just going to do what a cat does. I'm going to crawl under someone's deck and die. I like that. I like that. I like that. Not my deck. Yeah. You've got a great deck.

It's good. It's spacious under there. Yeah. I don't want you under my deck because of the smell. Like, no offence, I enjoy them. We're going into summer. Yeah. Who are we to think we're going to outlive Fletch?

The guy with the best gut bioma on the planet. I didn't get barley belly, did I? Oh, God. Mine hit me again this morning at 2 o'clock. I have had nothing but delightful liquid poos for the last of the while. It's coming right yesterday. I think that's what we call liquefaction. Yeah.

Yeah, this liquid action. I can see why Christchurch was so upset about it. Yeah, it was horrendous. Boy, oh, boy. All right. Top six ways to save money on a funeral because they are so very expensive. And I will say, this is, what do you call these things? Satire?

Yes. Is that what you say? Yes. In jest. It's in chess because I don't think any of this is legal. There's only a few legal ways here. Yeah. Number six on the list.

One of the most expensive parts is the celebrant, the person who leads it. Save on that by grabbing one of those nutty street preachers to lead the service, the ones that stand on the box and, tell you you go to hell because you're wearing a t-shirt with a skull on it. They're yelling anyway. Yeah, yeah. They are yelling anyway. Yeah. So get them to do it. They'll bloody love it. Number five on the list of the top

six ways to save money on a funeral. Coffins. I can't believe how expensive they are. Oh, they are outlandish. I'm going to make my own. It's a marine grade ply. And you know what? I'll probably get to making it and the marine grade is going to be too expensive. I'll go for just melting your mouth ply. But an MDF.

Swell up. Save on a coffin. Grab a few banana boxes from pack and save. I love that idea. Or a big TV box. A fridge box. Fridge box. TV box, too skinny. Yeah. I don't want a cop on. The polystyrene. It'll be very squeaky when the forces of you're like,

squeak. TV boxes aren't way too big for the TVs that come in. But they've got to protect them. Yeah, I know. I just got a padded out. There's nothing. There's few things in life that give me as much joy as taking a TV out of the TV box. Because one, I'm about to get a new TV.

Yeah. And like, yeah. How sucks that. Two. When it slides out and it. Oh, when it goes, oh, you nailed that sound. I love when people peel off their TV screens. Guys, my nipples are hard. Yeah, yeah, mine are too.

I did tweak mine after I made the noise, so I can see why they are hard. I'm confused. It doesn't explain this boater I've got on. You two, calm down. Number four on the list of the top six ways to save money on a funeral. Save on flowers pop past the botanical gardens. They've got so many flowers.

Again, not allowed. Absolutely, you don't be ripping out those. No. Actually, that is, I say that wild. What's the deal? Jess, I went to the botanical gardens. See me recently. I went to Auckland to Maine, the Winter Gardens.

Oh, darling, I know. That's nice. Have you been to the Auckland Botanical Gardens out south? It's on the two-do. I love it. Darling, it's on the two-due. And darling, out the back, if you go in, it's a lovely bushwalk. I love a bushwalk.

But if you take a wrong turn, you do end up in some weird kids' like playground. And you're like, where's my car? It's not the Hamilton Gardens. Oh, listen, we're not saying it is. I'm not, there's not enough. It doesn't sound like there's any Instagram bait there. There's no, there's no Egyptian theme. Oh, you know, but the colours.

Where's the Alice Leiflower show? Oh my God, shut up. You guys sound like nannas. Oh, darling, we simply must. We could do a high tea earlier. Oh, yes, we simply must, as we are. Want to do. Number three on the list of the top six ways to save money on a funeral.

We'll save on a funeral dress suit, whatever, by putting them in a banana box, naked. Just get twice as many banana boxes so it can be closed. But I'm Māori, I'm going to be open casket. That feels heavy. Okay. To be fully... Well, you know those things that come...

Well, okay, we might need to get a banana banana box, but then also the apple box. You know, the do-do-do-do-do. Oh, yep, yeah. They hold the apples. We'll put some of those on top of you. Let's put a blan duvet over. Oh, an old towel.

An old towel. And everyone's got an old towel kicking around. Yeah, your hair-dye towel. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, we're going to chuck a towel over you. Sounds great. That's all right. That's fine.

Number two on the list of the top six ways to save money on a funeral. Save on a hearse. But hiring a trailer from the server. I mean, how much is that? 36 bucks or something like that. Yeah, if we can get you there and back. We've only got a two-hour limit. Four-hour minimum.

You reckon go hired a trailer? Oh, really? Yeah, when you hired it, four-hour minimum. Sort of a half-day minimum. Because you've got to get the bod, take it to the place. Yeah. You've got to strop the bod down. Get it to the berry.

Then you've got to whack the strops and be like, that's not going anywhere. Yeah. Okay. But you want to find that perfect medium when tying down your strap, you don't want to crush the banana box. I just take the bus. It's so much cheaper. I don't know that about hurling a dead body on a bus. Yeah, all six pallbearers would need a bus pass.

Yeah. An AT hop card. It gets expensive. It does, yeah. Yeah. An AT hop. Boop. How many people are coming on?

Do I have to scan for the dead body? Yes, please. Boopop. Well, technically. he's not a rate payer anymore. No, he's not. But he is a passenger. But he's taking up real estate.

He's taking up the entire back seat. He's got to lay down. Herrings don't pay for their prams. No, because they strap them on the front of the bus in Wellington. Well, strapped the body on the front. Strap the banana boxes on the front. Okay.

Bingo. And we are problem solvers. Put a problem in our way. We'll duck, dodge, dive. Hiss, huss, and number one on the top six ways to save money in a funeral. Save buying on buying a plot. So expensive.

Yeah. To buy a plot. Just wait to do it in roadworks. In the hole And then every time you drove over There's Fletchy No you'll make a body size pothole in a few months

Yeah, I know No I reckon no I was thinking put you under a jutter bar Bill Jop Every time you hit it Grandad You're Grandin Nana

Boom Oh cool Over time you go over Hey those are just some ideas That's the day's stuff so The ZM Podcast Network Play ZN's Fletch won and Haley Now we just came back from hanging out

as friends as not workmates but genuine friends and I think we all get along very well I think we're good friends you know There was no disagreements No none no I don't think there was any No there was no terse Feelings no no no

We travel well together We did travel well together I think Yeah easy Well here's a little list of things That make you a punishing friend apparently Okay great A punishing friend. Let's see if any of these get ticked off.

Because I value being a good friend. You know what I feel like all of them are going to be ticked off. And that's the secret, right? Everybody's equitquish. That you can, yeah, stand each other. I don't think this, I don't think any of us are guilty of this because I would say it's solicited. Okay.

The first one, giving unsolicited advice instead of support. So I've been like, do you know what you need to do? Do you know how you need to fix? Or like, you know, like, this is your problem. And this is what you need to do about it. Because we'll come to get to each other with a problem and then be like, help. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but not sort of like...

Yeah, jumping in with advice when a friend shares a problem rather than listening. You're going to validate their feelings first rather than being like, I don't like... Easier said they're done sometimes. Yeah, it's hard, isn't it? Because sometimes you're just like, yeah, idiot.

Now, I'd say the next one we also don't do because we always include each other. It's whether or not the third person wants to come to our social things, which is excluding one particular friend from get-togethers. There's always invites. There is always that moment when you're curating the perfect evening when you go, I don't know of that person's.

Yeah. Like a playlist. Like a playlist. Just like a playlist. We don't exclude Vaughn from our get-togethers. Vaughn excludes himself. Yeah. I can't do all of them.

I don't have the social standard. You've been very social lately. Yes, I know. But we'll invite you to a Saturday thing and then we'll talk about it on Monday and you'll be like, well, I wasn't invited. You were invited. Yeah, I just, yeah.

Okay, the next thing that makes you a punishing friend is feeling entitled to your friend's time. Oh, okay. I definitely have people in my life, none in this room, that would feel a little bit entitled to my time. You know what you're just like, why aren't you spending your time with me? Oh. Expecting your friend to be available

whenever you want them to be available. Yeah, people are busy. I don't have time for your shit. Forgetting your friend's big life events. Oh, like their birthdays and stuff. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, like, oh my God, imagine if you were all like in Queenstown together.

Do you know what I mean? And then like on your birthday, you were like woke up and suddenly like no one said happy birthday to you until like the afternoon. Is this because I'm going to be in Queensland for Dr. Shawnee's birthday? No, it's because last year when we were in Queenstown, everyone forgot it was my birthday. No, we didn't. No, we didn't. We purposely. We knew it would be a funny gag.

Literally no one. one remembered it until so much later than you ought to have. We just sort of be a funny gag. It's a funny gag. Not funny. Okay. Other things that make you a shit friend

regularly flaking on plans. I never. Yeah. But those people, they're just like, on the day, oh, I'm sorry, actually something's coming. I'm busy. It's like, I, blah, I moved things around for you. And also forgetting to consider your friend's circumstances,

i.e. Financial. Let's go here. Let's do this. Come to this trip. We're going. here, let's go to dinner here without ever stopping to think like

they got a mortgage, they've got this to pay for it, they've got a different job, da-da-da-da-da-da. So, I actually think if this was a test as genuine friends, I think we passed. Yeah, I actually think we did pretty well. Well done. And happy birthday for next year.

You cannot care. Man, you're getting in early, it's her birthday month. Well, she can't complain next year. It's three weeks. It's her birthday. You're like, hey, happy birthday for next year, just in case I forget. God. Let's Born and Haley, big pod. Fletchfort and Haley, silly little pole, silly little pole, it is so silly, silly, silly, silly that a silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole, silly little pole. Silly little pole, it's all thanks to Mick Cafe, keep the show on the road, drive-thru, Mick Cafe for your morning fix.

The question we're asking today, have you been fooled by an AI video? And if you are thinking, no, and you shared that trampoline video, rabbits. Rabbits jumping on trampoline. You have been fooled. And Sora's app, which has been downloaded millions of times, it's still invite only for American and Canadian citizens. All of these shenanigans are from our American and Canadian friends.

Invite only, but I'm sure it will open up to the rest of the world soon. But yeah, the hyper-real AI videos are igniting an online trust crisis. It's weird the ones where you're watching And you're like Oh yeah And then it takes a real There was one this morning Where a plane

I mean I should have known straight away But a fighter jet was on somebody's front lawn And I was like Well I knew you straight away But I was like Crazier things have happened True Like maybe it needs to make an emergency landing

Or someone bought an old one And then this old lady pops out And she's like What a beautiful A10 And then it goes And just the guns Just obliterate her in the house Have you seen the dog with the bazook

Just like firing at the neighbours No It's everything Because I love a good internet video. Yes. And when you're like, that's crazy. And now you're like, I don't even know if it's real anymore. I know. That's the thing. Well, we're

second guessing every video we see now. Which is good. Because we should have been doing that all along. Yes. Yeah. And now it's got, what does it say, saw the logo bounces around the screen, eh? Yeah, a lot of them can crop it out as well. Yeah. I think that's why it's out of bouncing around the same. Oh, right. So you can tell. Yeah. So, Paul Rosal.

Somebody messaged in. I saw a video on TikTok of this guy saving a mother wolf but she died and it was AI but cracky dick, it had me in tears. Oh! Pulling out of emotional heartstrings. The emotional ones. Senator Powell had been fooled by an AI video

65% of people saying yes and 35% probably just not even realizing it was AI after they watched it. I wondered that if people even know. Yeah. Some feedback on it. Pippa said no because I'm a cynical bitch. That's pain, yeah. I'm also a cynical

bitch. I'm also a cynical bitch. I'm not. I'm just like, okay. You love to believe it. Boney's on a tramp. Mason said, no, I look at the lighting, skin textures and shadows. Always a dear giveaway. I don't have time when there's a photo jet on the front lawn to look at the skin.

The dog's got a bazooker. How am I supposed to, what, zoom in and see if the fur is consistent? Let me see. Some of these videos are really good, and that's what is... The ones that don't do something weird and twisted, like, you know, the queen takes off like a rocket afterwards. Those are the ones that keep it so real and so... subtle there. Like, I don't know.

The Queen rapping with NWA was a pretty good one I saw the other day. No, that one was real. Was that real? It was real? It was real. She had the studio with the back of the day. Yeah. Okay, that's real. Caitlin said, rabbits bouncing on a trampoline on TikTok. And when I only realized when I looked at the comments, I was so disappointed in myself.

Yeah, you get gutted out. Yeah. Ross boss fell for that. Do you remember that he sent that to us? Shame. Briah said, I felt so much joy when I saw the AI video of the dogs looking at each other from the car while stuck in traffic. Then so much shame and sadness when I realized on the second watch that it was AI. Yeah.

Poor old Brian. Courtney, I'm not even ashamed to admit it, to be honest. I feel like the options for this should be yes, and no, aka we lied or we didn't realize. We didn't realize, I know. Anna said the buddy's jumping on the trampling on the trampling got me so bad. Fiona, yes, I truly thought those dogs

that were doing high dives with twirls and twists into the pool. I want to see it. I'm embarrassed. And how many people I shared it with before I realized that it wasn't. I mean, that feels to me like the best response we've had so far

and I'll give them a cafe voucher for that one. We've got a $50 Mac Cafe voucher for you. Yeah. Corny said, I said yes and I always have to tell my mum that things are fake. That's good. We have to inform. I'm just so glad my parents aren't on the internet enough.

Because my mum shared a couple of win this Range Rover with a bow on it. I tell you, ruin the Range Rover. We've had a caravan order cancelled, so we're giving this away and win an e-bike and Raybans. Type at highlight in the comments. Yeah.

It's a modern plague. Well, you're going to have to tell her if you call from another country with a Sora logo bouncing around the screen that it's not me. That's not you. Hi, Mom, it's me.

I need some money. Sora, boing, boing, boing. Transfer to this account. I wish dogs jumped on trampolines like that, see Caitlin. Yeah. Good news is. Very smart dogs.

I probably teach them to do it. Wait, are you telling me that cat walking onto the alligator is not real either? Have you seen that one? No, I haven't seen that one. Oh my God, that's so good. Sounds.

But I want to see it. But I want it to be real. I want it to be real. Yeah. So I'd be like, what's that cat doing on that alligator? Ruby said, I voted. I hadn't been fooled, but maybe I just don't know it because my life has proven. Ignorance is bliss.

Exactly. I have, oh, this is from my second cousin. Oh, hello, second cousin. This is from Deanna, my second cousin. Oh, you could marry her. I'm not going to. We're used to it. Oh, my God.

The cat on the alligator is so. I have says my second cousin but my mum I don't know if your second cousin should be allowed to message in she's not winning anything she's just corresponding with the show

feels against the rules feels a bit yeah feels a bit nepo does it feel nepo that I'm prioritising her thoughts on it somebody else may have had their message not read out

because you're nepo well I actually don't pick the message just get read out I to get sent a selection yeah but then it comes across your desk you should make the decision I didn't even know until right now that because my I like everything

to be able to be surprise on the show. NEPO 101. Deanna, my second cousin, said I have... Next you'll be playing a single on the radio. Actually, she is dropping a new track. Yeah, exactly. Can we play it?

I have, but my mum also sent me a video of a volcano blowing up in the ocean off the cost of Italy. Coast, that's when I... What did I say? Cost. Cost. Cost of Italy. Yeah, no, you're right, actually. She wrote Coast. That's no reflection on her. That's all on me. That's on you. Blowing up off the coast of Italy. That's when I had to teach her

about AI. Oh, okay. Wait, but there are volcanoes. I know, but that's probably why it made it so believable. Have we done a quick Google to make sure that Italy's volcano hasn't erupted? Well, one of my other second cousins is in Europe on her honeymoon. So that's really why the mum mentioned. So for today's silly little poll, we said, have you been fooled by an AI video?

65% of you willing to admit yes. The Z&P Podcast Network. What's going on? ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Haley. Now there's been a study done into fitness tracking apps And the popular fitness apps Like Nike Run and all your strata So they analysed data from these

From people posting about these on social media Yeah They found 13,799 negatively toned posts About fitness apps Right Yeah What was sort of at the core of them Why don't people like them?

realistic targets. You sit at your own. Yeah, I know. That's what was weird, eh? But then if you're like, I know my fitness app, it's like, how much weight would you like to lose? And how long do you want it to take? And then it'll say, for your heightened, you know, weight on average, because it's, you know, different for everybody, these are how many calories you would need to do.

And it does tell you, it's told me before, it's like, this isn't enough calories. This is too quick. This is crash. You're going to balance this. You're going to dumps. Because when you say 15. KGs by tomorrow. Yeah.

Is that my... Well, cut off a leg. Is that my... Which one's that? My fitness power. The one I've used for that. They're saying that, yeah, so the targets,

how it tracks your activity and how those features feel day to day. Like, is this long term sustainable? But then that's, that's, that's, if it's long term, it's a change of habit. So people aren't finding them motivating. They're finding them...

Well, people are, but they've focused on like the negative aspects for this specific one. Oh God, I love them. I mean, like, I don't close my rings every day and I but I don't find it I'm annoyed at the app yeah I just go I just are you annoyed at yourself though does it make you feel it makes me feel like my excuses will destroy me and take everything that I ever wanted if I let them oh wow that's the quote

that's the quote that Fletch said to me once and I love it yeah it's favorite it in my photos album yeah one thing um that's mentioned here that I've had is when you put in what foods you're eating you get a little very high in sodium yeah yeah and they say they don't like that They're not carb shaming you, but they're like, a lot of salt. But then that's also you don't know. So you're being told and you're like, wow. And don't be offended on the behalf of paternipships. They're doing okay.

I love it when my watch buzzes me as like, hey, still time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Briss Gork, let's be getting raised. I think they, like the watch, closing your rings, keeps you accountable. Yeah. Like there'll be days when I'm like, oh, I haven't done enough and I haven't done enough. Yeah. And then I suppose you can make a choice, like on holiday.

Yeah, you have a rest day. I mean, it's hard because people are very time poor, you know, jobs, kids, things on. But you can, like, with the Apple one, I think years ago I had my goal super high and was like failing it every day. And that did make you feel bad. So you like, and then you just lower it down a bit. Then you start. To like two. Two calories.

And then you just walk to the toilet in the morning and you've done. You've done your exercise for the day. I have actually doubled my quota. Yeah. Because I went to the toilet twice. Yeah. I swear. I swear by the watch, closing your rings.

I reckon that's the best way. Suppose if it works for you, it works for you, right? Yeah, 100%. If some people want a bit more of a sort of casual, like, as I feel it approached, then that's up to you. But don't forget. Opening it up.

Your excuses will destroy you and take everything that you ever wanted if you let them. It's a great quote. It could almost go up the arm, you know, you could almost get that tattoo. The whole way. Yeah.

The whole arm. Play ZM's flesh for an inhalate. Play Z. Fletchbourne and Haley. Do you remember the pain that came when you were putting on a pair of jeans that were pre-ripped? Yes.

You'd put your foot in, ripped on the knee, and then your foot would hook on the knee hole and you'd rip the hole bigger. Yes, yes. So then your little sort of pre, you know, just jeans pre-ripped these for me became this gaping hole

where you could see half your thigh, half your shin. You'd have to get it kind of sew in and get a back. Get a bit of a stitch going on. Get long to put a hook a stitch. Guys, ripped and distressed jeans are back. That was, no, yeah, that weren't for me.

That was, for a start. My dad still says, you pay for them like that? Yeah, and you come like that. And they did. You pay for them with a rip in the... Who did he say that to recently? I'm talking in the last few months. Oh, really?

You pay for them like that. The people buy pants, that ruined. That's kind of classic stuff. Mine was always the, like the little short short, that had been cut with a raw hem and then they would fray in the ends and you'd have a rip in the thing and then they'd just tickle you, tickle your leg

and then like the shorts you're like they're getting shorter and shorter and shorter because the fray would fray more but that's the kind of stuff that's back the ripped knees the holes and the distressed genzies behind this I can't do this this time

they're saying that they're like oh we're not doing like the classic we're not doing the mum jeans or the sort of classic you know your Levi's we're doing the absolute ripage, tangled fringe in the lot. And millennials are like, no! Put your foot in a hole every morning.

It's just the absolute pit. You've got to tip the foot right down, get the toe down. Yeah, you've got to point the top. Like a ballet dancer. Also, it was the fashion at the time, but some bars and restaurants wouldn't let you in or clubs because you had ripped jeans. Yeah.

And you were like, but everyone has ripped jeans now. So this is the cycle, because it came, it was obviously very popular. in the 90s grunge era, right? Kurt Cobain. But then also too... And then it went out of fashion and we were doing our flares

and our like things and then our skinny jeans and it came back in the mid-2000s, millennials, that's us. We were like, man, I used to like buy jeans and if they weren't ripped, you'd get a cut and then you try to like fray them yourself and then get the holes too big.

Oh, now I've screwed the jeans. No. Then they went out of fashion again because, you know, that's how it works. Couldn't wear them work. Could have rips and jeans at work And now it's back Low rise

Ripped distress James Do you remember stone wash? I'm still a fan of stone wash I like a light blue jean I don't like a dark Was that white? Like harder like bleached Yeah

I had like bleached acid wash Cut off shorts that were frayed and had holes I mean these things We in my habit were from the trash Priced a pair of acid wash jeans Expensive Yeah Priced a pair of ordinary jeans and a bottle of Ajax.

Cheaper. We made our wine. Did not look good. That's the most Hamilton story you've ever said. We should have just got a thing of exit mold and done the shower at the same time. Exit mold will be perfect. The Fletchborn and Haley Big Pod. How outrageous was the affair?

Because, you know, like people have affairs. They're like, oh, with the workmate. I mean, with the boss or something. It's pretty outrageous. I mean, it is, oh, I think all affairs are outrageous. You know my stance on this. monogamy, monogamy, monogamy. She thumped the desk.

I thumped the desk, so you know I mean it. Yeah, she meant. So, there was a woman who had been with her husband since her early 20s. They'd grown up in the same little village in the UK, went to the same school, but in their 20s was when they got together and da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. Yeah. And they got... Did the village have a stone wall?

Oh, they do have lovely stone walls. They'd love to try to build. I'd like to try to build my own stone wall. It would take time You've got to get the stones Definitely harder than it looks Yeah Yeah

So With the husband Very happy And then she discovers It's shit that he is having an affair With her stepmother So her father's wife Oh okay

Yep. Not me. Monogamy. But look further afield. Then your wife's stepmother. Yeah, that's crazy. You know, access. You know, they're around location, geographical proximity.

That's the thing. That's how affairs happen. It's the workplace. It's where people are. It's just where you exist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's where they happen. Totally.

So, okay, this is what I want to know. How outrageous was the affair? Like, you couldn't believe who it was. Yeah, when you're like, okay, you're having an affair, but with that person, someone just messaged done. Like when it's someone's best friend or something.

You can't return. Speaking of which, touching crotch is no returns. Yeah. I found out that my husband had been going to get happy-ending massages. Good news. And he ended up having an affair with her. What if he was getting? So technically, did he just stop paying her?

Yeah, maybe. It's a professional service until he's getting it for free At which time it crosses the boundary Into a fair territory Yeah, and then what changes? You stop paying them but you say a couple of nice things Yeah, you know what I mean? How was your day?

So they had an affair, we're now separated, they're living together. Oh, wow. It worked out. Wow. A real, um, pretty woman situation. Yeah. Must be some sort of agreement.

Mm. Um, I just have to give this one a quick pre-read, talk amongst yourselves. I'm just trying to still figure out when in the therapy session. Nope. Having done therapy myself, when it turned to flirt. Yeah.

When I'm talking about childhood trauma. Yeah. When I'm talking about difficult feelings? When does it turn to? Yeah. Are you feeling? Oh, God. Also, you know this person has emotional baggage.

They spent weeks in that hospital. Why were you in the same car? Yeah. This was in the paper. It was in the paper apparently how bad the accident was. This was like a long time ago. Massive news at the time. Very scandinav.

Busted because you have a car. Oh, that's true. Yeah. Okay. My dad cheated with my mum's eldest sister. Now I also have steps siblings cousins. What? Again.

The grandkids call her auntie. You're making this really. hard for future generations trying to put together their family tree. Yeah, do you... Bong? Keeps bouncing. There's crosses, there's lines. Do you think Ancestry.com just era pages

and logs out? The laptop starts fizzing. Like when you're running an intense game on the PlayStation and it starts heating up. Ancestry doesn't know how to compute it. Husband number one had an affair with my best friend and I caught them in the act. Oh, God.

Husband number of two had an affair with his best mate's wife and he was a good friend of mine. So it turns out, you know, they both had... Hence, now divorce from... I think stop marrying hot men. It sounds like they're too hot. You know, like that could be a problem. And people can't stop sleeping with hot men.

Yeah. You know what I mean? It's hard. Somebody said, I've got an aunt-a-nanny. Unt-a-nanny! Okay, there are far too many people... That's their auntie, but also their nanny. There are far too many people with aunt-nannies.

Unt-n-n-nanny. Messaging in. This is insane. These messages don't make sense. My mother-in-law had an affair with her daughter's husband's brother. She had a child with him so my brother-in-law is her uncle and brother-in-law at the same time.

Wait, slow down. Go again. Do you want to try it? My mother-in-law had an affair with her daughter's husband's brother. Right. Her daughter's husband's brother.

I'm lost and I'm ready. She had a child... Does anybody else put this into their own family? It'd be like my mom having an affair with... Yes, yeah, yeah. My mother-in-law had an affair with her daughter's husband's brother. She had a child with him. So my brother-in-law is her uncle

and brother-in-law at the same time. A bruncle. A bruncle. A bruncle. I love it. Okay. My best friend's grandma had an affair with her own daughter's boyfriend

that now married, so this woman's boyfriend is also her stepdad. This woman's ex-boyfriend is her step-dad. This is spinning my head around. This is wild. Just pre-reading. Just pre-reading a couple of these because some of them are wild.

I can't believe this. Do you read this about the best friend of 38 years. That's like my best friend, Jess. Yeah. My so-called best friend so-called, so-called, so we know where this is going, of 38 years, whom I was at the birth of her son, bridesmaids and everything. She was at my wedding.

Help me, she even made my wedding dress was having an affair with my now ex-husband. Oh my God. That's still together and I'm happily single. I... Oh, how do you do that? I'm not judging. You wouldn't be friends with your best friend anymore.

God, no. After 38 years, She's your maid of honor, made your wedding dress and then the trust is gone. The trust is gone. My father had an affair with my mother's cousin and had two children

that are the same age as my younger sibling, so he's impregnating people at the same time. He's fertile. Willie Nillow. So he's having an affair with my mother's cousin. Then he left her to get with my mother's cousin's cousin. It's supposed to be a hot family. Yeah.

Sounds like a hot family. When she left, my mother sheltered her as she didn't have a place to live with my two half-brothers. But half-brothers. is also second cousins. Imagine walking in and be like, who are you to me? Brousins. Bruns.

Second Bruns. Second Brunsons once removed? Oh, who knows? This is wild. Man, these messages coming in. This is not even, we're only scratching the surface. There's some that can't be read. I was sort of thinking maybe we'd get a couple in of, oh my gosh, I couldn't believe

that. Wild. Pretty angry. We didn't get a same-sex one, though. Pretty upset about that. Well, we won't rest. 9-6-96 The Z-M Podcast Network

Play Z-M's FlashWorn and Haley I've long been called out actually on this show Haven't I for abusing the privilege of having a friend That's a GP And I, anytime anything happens Whether it's a small ache or a minor rash Our dear friend, Dr Shawnee gets a message Offen a photo accompany out

And I seek free medical advice In fact the first time I introduced you to him at a bar in the viaduct in Auckland you were quite boozed you put your foot on the table showed him a rash and you've been friends ever since it was after your 40th born

wasn't it? And we just got off the Waikiki theory and yeah I'd had a tipple and I had a foot rash and I hucked it up on that that's right and we have been friends ever since yeah

it is beneficial because he can give you advice but he can't be your doctor because I don't know well you just had other doctors The hippopotamus oath. Yeah.

What's that? That's the oath that doctors swear, the hippopotamus oath. Is it the hippopotamus oath? I didn't know that, and I'm a doctor. That's crazy. Yeah, I know. Are you? Doctor of theatre.

Yes, yes. So I looked for a new doctor this year, and I found one, and it just happens to be at Dr. Shawnee's practice, where he works. And I've never bumped into him there, because I've got different squidgwills. And, as you know, and I shared, I've been dealing with this face,

rash that sort of made a grand appearance because apparently heat, sweat and chlorine and barley was not the best thing for it. Oh, wasn't it? It's crazy, and it died of bintangs. Wow. Yeah. What about your minty sigs? Yeah, no, my holiday

dance, not helping my body heal. Who thought? Who thought? So, my face rash is back, and it's kind of coming back with a vendor, so I was like, oh, I've got to go to the doctor again, and I'd go on to my you know, practices website. You go into the patient portal

and you put in your thing and I was like, I need to do this immediately. I need to do it yesterday. The day we, like the next day. Yeah, yeah, so I can get onto the thing with some more antibiotics or whatever. And I go on and there's no doctors available. My doctor's not available.

The other doctor who I see when my doctor's not available wasn't available. The only doctor that had anything available on Tuesday morning was Mr. Dr. Shawnee. Did you tell him when you booked? No. I love this.

So I just had to book it because I was like, I need to go and get this face looked at. And I had been messaging him in the way that I usually do, which is unpaid, unsolicited, sending him photos of my face rash, being like, help, help, help. Yeah. So I did. I booked it with Dr. Sean properly. Had an appointment. You were going to pay. I paid money.

I used the service. It's lovely that he's finally clawing back some money for. You know, it was so odd sitting in the waiting room and then seeing our friend who usually like we're partying, we're hanging out, we're on the vire duct to have it a margarita come down in his

work pants, his work shirt his doctor's mask on and he'd come out with his little paper and go, Haley. That's so funny. Did you have to keep it professional on the walk? Absolutely. You can walk down to the examiner. We kept a professional the whole time.

Did you? He's got a 15-minute slot. We didn't have time for catching up. No, he didn't weigh me, but he took my, you know, blood pressure and all that. Plus blood pressure. Check your ears. They check your ears. Yeah, and he got the little eye thing to look at my skin up close.

And he swabbed my... He gave it a swab. Yeah, he gave me his things a swat. Oh, I know what it's going to come back with. Bintang. We had a positive for Bintang. It was like, it was, we had, it was such a jarring experience being like we have to actually do the appointment.

In this moment, Dr. Shawnee is my doctor. It's weird when you see people like out of their environment or in their environment? I don't like seeing my friends at work. I don't like knowing what they do. So I went away with our... Wait, but we're your friends and we work with you. Oh, no, I know, I know.

You mean other people. Other people, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. My other friends, I'd freak out if I saw my mate Callerman, like, his work uniform once, I was like, take that off. Off, off, off, off, off. You looked too professional. Our friend Mike. Our friend Mike Gibson, like, I went away with her.

Oh, full name there. Shout out. Shout out, shout out. Shout Mikey. I went away with him because he was opening a gym down in Hawks Bay, and I was in Hawks Bay,

so we were hanging out. And he kept taking phone calls and, like, Mike's so fun. And then like, yeah, yeah, good-a, yeah, yeah, no, we're going to need three of those. If you go into the left, I was like, I don't like, I don't like it, eh? Stop it.

Yeah. Or our friend Matt, it's a teacher, like, don't, what? I would hate to see it. It would just be so bizarre. Yeah. But anyway, I will say, I will highly recommend Dr. Shawna. And then he was very professional.

You've got some creams? I've got some creams. And he was really, he's invested in the journey of the healing. And we did our appointment and he gave me the little, you know, take that to reception. And I said, absolutely I will. Did he say, what, you want me to pay? I was like, excuse you. Mates rates, what's going on here?

Was there a friend's discount? No, it was a full professional service. Wow. And I'll tell five stars. Okay. Five star review. The Z&P Podcast Network Play ZDM's FlashWorn and Haley

My parents officially are my new flatmates They have moved into the bedroom next to mine And What? It is wild that you have a wall between you No, no, there's a wardrobe My bedroom wardrobe, them And by wardrobe Thankfully I made it big enough

Yeah, by wardrobe you mean Small Auckland apartment size Small fourth room Yeah, it's bigger than Shannon's apartment That's bigger than Shannon's apartment That wardrobe Does it have that noise jib And that insulation

No No, just normal bats And you've got hardwood floor Throughout the house So the vibrations will carry through Yeah And this goes both ways too by the way Because I know your parents

Very active sex lives Oh my God My mom will be listening Should be so my God Should be mortified She won't be mortified She'll probably remind her It's time to

Well this is aroused Maybe they won't. This will be a con on the list of living with your parents. This is what I want to know right now. If you live with your parents in any context, or you have in the past as an adult, give me the good, the bad, the ugly. Because my parents, I've mentioned before,

they spent a lot of their time in Italy. And they wanted to move up to the sunny north. I'm in Auckland. I have a house. And so it just made sense. They wanted to move to the sunny north. They got to the humid wet part. They got to the humid wet part and thought,

And here we shall rest. Perfect. But it was so funny because they arrived back home from Europe when we were in Bali. So I wasn't there. And I mentioned once I landed, I was like, I've landed, I'm heading home. And I got home and my dad's in the driveway with a stabby thing getting out all my weeds. And my mum was dusting the spider webs off of the front windows, which I've been meaning to do for so long. and then I get inside

and the under cupboard of my sink and the kitchen's been organised like a mum. Oh, this is good. My washing basket that I left for barley with two sets of sheets in there. I reckon give it two weeks and they would have done

everything you've been wanting to do for the last two years. I got home yesterday and my mum had gone through the freezer and found a bag of old apples from my apple tree which by the way she picked up and peeled months ago. She was like, you haven't bloody eating them.

She just made an apple cake. Oh, that to me might go under the bad. Listen. Because you get fat. I don't need access to baking 247. I got home yesterday. It was apple cake. So I'm going to put baking under both good.

By the way, I'm constructing a list. Oh, perfect. I'm going to put baking under good and bad. Yes. And what's ugly? Just the downright, worse than bad. Yeah, yeah, worse than bad. Yeah, ugly.

Like, it went to share. Hearing them. I'm probably going to put their sex noises under ugly. Okay, yeah. Because a lot of people move home as adults because he's saving for a mortgage. Saving money or, you know, like health things sometimes. Yep. So look after the parents?

Looking after the parents, yeah, for sure. And I, yeah, it's the, yeah, the sex thing. Yeah, so haven't come. We haven't sort of, yeah. Yeah. Because, yeah, and then a bad thing I get told off because I'm used to living alone now. That's, okay, it's weird when you get told off as an adult. So my mum was like, thanks for turning off your alarm

because I didn't stay at home last night. I, my four... Where were you? It was in your spare bedroom. Okay, you're going to get better at lying. That was a terrible lie. I was in your spear couch with the cat. I got that cat.

And so my... That cat, the brown cat you have. I was with that in the bedroom. No, no. There was someone in my house last son. It wasn't you. Oh, come on. Well, if we're all saying...

Okay, well, if we're all... On the count of three, say, we all are we all with? No. What you do? Haley, I simply won't. Hey, I'm not playing this go. But my...

So I've got an Alexa alarm clock, and it just is on at 420 and 430. Yeah. Those are my like, get out, get... Oh, and because you weren't there. It wasn't there, it was just... And it plays... It says the time, and that it plays music.

So my parents would have woken up at 420, this, like, music blast. So that's probably a... downside. Okay, I've got, somebody else said parenting, but both ways, because when your parents live with you, you parent them on some things now as an adult. Oh, yeah, because another year, you see, internet safely.

Someone just asked me if I was at John Mayer's house last night. Now, that's a listener. That's somebody's... That's a listener. That's got a clear recall of a previous conversation. Yeah. It wasn't. They said, because their parents still parent, them like, no swearing. My mum told me off a swearing out of a day. If you were in my house, I'll

swear as much as I want. Parenting both ways, but then they have to tell them that casual racism it's not okay. So, you know, it flows. It works both ways. Okay, well, we'd love to take your text and calls. 0,800, Darls at M. 966 to text in.

We want to hear the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to living with your parents as an adult. And maybe it just ended terribly and you just had to end living together. Or maybe you're like, I will never not live with them again. This rules. Because they do the watching and the cooking. That's pretty good.

I want to know, as someone who recently has begun living with their parents again, the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to living with your parents as an adult. So far, so good, but it's only been a couple of days. Haley forgot to mention, she had a roast last night. On a Tuesday night.

It was just a butterfly chook. Mum didn't know what she was like, I don't know what to cook. And I was like, relatively healthy would be good. And she went to the supermarket, came back. She had a butterfly chook. We had beans and broccoli, cummina. That's wild.

That's pretty good. One for a Tuesday night. Yum, though. Yeah, she made a gravy. Oh, yum. Yeah. We had wines, sat around, listen to music. It was good fun.

You're really selling this to me. I know, but this is the thing that the sprows do. We act like we're on holiday when we're not. You know what I mean? And we live life like that. Well, should we ever want? Well, drink, well, it's fuzzy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's what the vibe is. So we're compiling a pros, cons list, the good and the bad and the ugly about living with your parents when you're an adult. Charlotte, you lived with your grandparent. I did. How did that go? Because that's a next level. There were pros and cons

I was living in their house and they came up to stay for a month But they would cook me dinner every night I wouldn't have to do the dishes Like that was a bit of a breeze How old were you when you were living with your grandparents Oh I was 26.

I mean, yeah, that's peak bonking years. Were you doing some bonking? Charlotte, were you doing some bonking and nanos? I was most certainly not bonking. Yeah, okay, that's a con. Put that down. No bonking. No bonking.

No bonking at nannas. Put that down. Yeah, no. As soon as I wasn't home by six, I'd get a text guy. Where are you? That's so cute. That was under parenting. In both ways, I think, is a con.

Were there any actual bad, like, bad signs to it? Oh, no. Casual racism, trying to tell them to stop doing this. Yeah. And they kind of love digging their heels in on that shit, hey. That's how I've always said it. It's all my room. Goliwogs are our friends.

Yes. Oh, that's so great. Charlotte, thank you. So many messages. Somebody does messages, and how's the boomer tech expertise with the Sproul seniors? No, I mean my dad, but he reads books, like he doesn't care. Okay, but can we put on the under the bad tech support? Yeah, tech support.

Yeah, for sure. Like, I don't know your I cloud login, Patsy. I don't, why would I have that information? Sounds like you need a password notebook. I think we might need one. A joint. A little notebook. Yeah.

Put it by the router. Yes, put it on the router. You don't lose it. Adult child and her partner living with my parents good is that I love them so much. and there's free access to the booze cupboard. Oh, yeah, okay, good. Con, literally not allowed to make a mess. Yeah.

And ugly, my partner and I have to whisper fight now if we're having a disagreement, otherwise our parents can evolve. How good it is a whisper fight in public? You're at a party or something. I'm not doing this. I'm not. Stop it. What, you always have to do.

I'll leave. You have to have the last whisper. Okay, I'll tell them where you've gone. Okay, I'll tell them where you've gone. You'll explain to them. I'm going. I will. You're not going to want to have the explanation.

Psycho. Do you call me a psycho? That's it. That's it. Oh, get me, what's the flag? Oh, my God. That's the last word. My brother is 28, lives at home.

Mom and dad let him set up as DJ Dex in the office, including speakers. Oh, wow. This must be so. Oh, no. Every time he cranks up that drum and bass, you must look at your wife and be like, where do we go wrong? Glenda, do you live with your parents? Hi guys, a big, big fan of you, just here.

Oh, thank you. Big fan of yours, Glenda. I've got your first album. That's how much of a big fan I am. I was a big fan of your workers, Wicked Witch of the West. Wow. I get that all the time. I'm sure you do.

But yeah Living with us All the other things Yes, food is done Cook This is a clean, great It's awesome But the X part of it

Is that you know You buy all this new technology Like they don't have an air friar So now I buy an air friar and it's broken within a month. Oh, how do they break the air friar? How do they break that? Do they press the buttons too hard?

Do they fill it up with oil? No, I know. When they take the actual tray out and they're putting it in, they like jam it back in, and then next minute the whole thing, check. Gentile. And it's not, it's not like it's a cheapy, you know. It's like normal women, you know. Oh, it's a client's one.

Mine from came up. And I'm proud of that. You know what I'm, you know? Yeah, and then it's, you know, also it's like technology, you know, it's like the TV. like, oh, the TV's just not working today. It's not pushing too many buttons. It's not working.

It's not working. It's on. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Okay. Something's happened with your TV. You have happened.

Yeah. It sounds like you've got it pretty good, though, Glenda. Yeah, I do. We do have it pretty good. We do love them lots. And if you are listening, I love you guys, really. Yeah. But they're not listening.

They can't figure out how to turn it on. Yeah, they don't know how to turn the radio on. But if you are listening, a new air friar for Christmas, This would be a great present. And make sure it's a nice one from Noel Leaming and not a Kmart one. Just be gentle. Glenda, thank you some messages. Somebody said, having a lie about where you are if you're going out for a night of fun.

Oh yeah, even though you're an adult and you can do whatever you want. So I would put that under tracking. How long do you reckon before they say something about your partying? Yeah, where are you? You've been out a few nights in a row. Yeah, just noticing. And then you were saying on Friday how exhausted you are. And you're not resting.

And yet we've gone out Friday, Saturday, and where are you, it's Sunday afternoon. We don't know where you are. You might actually need some of that. I know. Moved in with their grandparents and they split up with their son's bar. They saved so much money because they paid all the bills. I gave them a, you know, a $100 a week sort of co-ha. Oh, yeah.

Got a luxurious dinner each night and even had help with the baby, and they looked after him during the day so I could go back to work. But I got a boyfriend and he wasn't allowed to come over. You see, that's like, because you can't just have casual people at your grandparents' house. So under bad, am I putting possible traditional values? Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not under this Christian roof.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay, traditional values on the list. Unless they're out. Yeah, yeah. Then you've got a little couple of hours. Yeah, they're out. I've left Jesus on security to watch over their house. I would say bad sides are small bonking windows.

Small bonking? Yes. You know, because my mum's a speedy shopper. I think we're going to say she's a speedy bonker. Oh, I don't know. I can't vouch for that. Okay. Okay.

I lived with my parents and we weren't allowed to eat takeaway So my wife and I used to sneak takeaways in Because they were so judgey of what we ate Oh, judgey Judgy! Put that on the list That generation man Judgey

McDonald's again Interesting Interesting Your nuggets last night Starting to look like a filial fish Oh I wouldn't say anything You enjoy your nuggets

I've got this little shredded lettuce I moved back in with my parents and when mum found out that I was on Tinder she burst into tears. I was in my 20s. She married dad at 19. Oh, yeah. She'd probably seen that 60 minutes thing about Tinder.

Yeah. And all the people dying. Every other 60 minutes that's ever involved any dating apps. Yeah. My friend is a highly respected and highly qualified anesthetist. Anesthesiologist?

No, it doesn't have the ologist part in it. Oh, anesthetist. Anesthetist. But did you just get an easy to say, job title. Yeah. It must be a nightly to write that. Sleep doctor.

Sleepy doctor. Sleepy doctor. Sleepy doctor. Sleepologist. When she goes to stay with her parents, they still tell her off for leaving dishes in the sink. Oh no.

Yeah. But I mean if she can find a spinal cord to put an epidural in it, I mean, she can find where the dishwasher is, you know? Yeah, exactly. It shouldn't be that hard. It's so much bigger.

If we had to summarize the list, Vaughan, from our good, bad and the ugly, I'd say the bad just take it, but the goods are really good. A really good. The goods are really good. Because the good list is a lot of time-consuming chores.

Totally. And I will say, like, people saying they get to live with their grandparents. How cool. You know what I mean? Like, we go short lives. I'll never, I'll never get this time back. No, no, no, totally.

Totally. And also, my mum, yeah, it makes apple cake. So, like, yum. Yeah. Plays, that ends. Fleshhorn and Haley. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Toot-to-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do-to-do.

Today's, this week's fact of the day theme is Japan. Because we're contemplating that for an ex-best friend's trip. Japan. Came up for a couple of times, didn't that, when we're overseas. Ever, it's been the... Never been wood love. It's been, like, the it destination in the last few years, right? So many of my friends have been.

So many Aussies. In the last couple of years. Yeah. Floating Japan. Ozies. Yeah, a lot of Aussies. Like Bali. But babe, they're everywhere.

They're everywhere. They're in the crew. Islands, they're in Bali. You hear them coming. The good thing about them is that quiet and respectful. Exactly. Like the Americans. They have a comment.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And we're like the Canadians. We're just kind of watch. We're like, we're so sorry about that. Oh, sorry. So today's fact of the day about Japan is Japan has roughly 10% of all of the world's active volcanoes. It is very volcanic, isn't that? Very volcanic.

It's because four major tectonic plates meet and collide there. The Pacific plate is sliding underneath. north Japan. The Philippine sea plate is coming from southern

Japan. The Eurasian plate sounds hot is going is coming in from the west. Euro meets Asia?

Hello. We're going to have some light skin and blue eyes some tan skin and blue eyes. I know. Sorry, I triggered you.

Gosh. Yeah. You know that's the show's kryptonite. The Eurasian plate pushing in from the west and the North American plate overlapping from the north

feast. So the four converging on it. Very similar to Al Therroa in the fact that, you know, you know, drastically shaped our landscape by the tectonic plates. But we've only got two, though. Yeah, but our two are doing a range of different things. Sometimes they're just smashing together and going up, some and Alps. Sometimes one's

going under another. Yeah. Wellington area. And then up the top, the trenches where they're both pushing down. Like, we've got a lot going on tectonically. Yeah. They've got the four major tectonic plates meeting it. And so they've got 111 active volcanoes. You never hear of

them like going off though. You always hear the, you know, in Indonesia, the Philippines always have active... Yeah, the big active ones. So there's some in Japan that are constantly in a state of eruption. That's so cool. Yeah, I mean, Mount Fuji is Japan's tallest peak and it last erupted in 1707.

So it's like, what they consider dormant, but it constantly monitored because it's less than 100 kilometres away from Tokyo. So if it went up, and it's a big dog, if it went up one of the world's most populous cities would be in a fair bit of trouble. Yikes.

They've got another one, Mount Arso. You can't say that. You've already had the ars and arso. Kushu. One of the largest volcanic calderas. So like 25 kilometres across. Oh wow. Active volcano.

You can drive down into it, but really the smell of the sulphur and everything and it's active. There's one called Kagoshima, which erupts almost daily and it spews ash on a nearby city. I'd probably move. Sounds like a dusty night. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Once an island, in 1914, It erupted so much that it joined. The lava flow joined it to the mainland. So as part of daily life, you have to get up onto your roof and sweep the dust off. Sweep the ash off. Oh, I just wouldn't have a roof. I wouldn't bother with a roof.

I'll leave it dust too. I mean, I wouldn't have a roof. Yeah. And then there's Mount, near Nagasaki, there's Mount Oonzen. It is sort of the deadliest eruption. And it's 1792, triggered a landslide and a tsunami. And that's also why they have so many tsunamis. Sunamis is, in fact, a Japanese word, meaning harbour wave.

It gives big Japanese. Yeah. The silent tea. Interesting. Silami. It's like the silent tea years in front of daddy. Some not saddy. Kind of putting me off going to Japan now.

But hold on. I've got good points to how rich they are volcanically is it's given a rise to onsen. Oh, we love an onsen. The natural hot springs across the country that are mineral-rich GFM or water that's used for heating homes, cooking, bathing and, you know, like relax. And Instagramming. And Instagramming. You know what I mean?

as we are want to do. As we are want to do. They constantly monitor it. Seven million people live within 10 kilometres of an active volcano. Goodness me. Isn't that crazy? What an interesting place. So today's fact of the day.

Also, this is, by the way, no, in any way, spawned con by Japanese tourism, although we are happy to take them on board for the last two days ago. As long as there's a bit of, you scratch my back, I'll scratch you. Scratchy, scratch it. And an onsen. In an onsen, give me backticles. We'll happily go to Japan. Happily take that for the time.

Oh, look, okay. If we must. If we must. Today's fact of the day is that nearly 10% of the world's active volcanoes are in Japan. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.

A lot of bush. First caller through from Kurodi, 0800 dials at him right now. Yeah, Wellington's Green Valley of Carmen Colossacks.

It's described, half suburb, half south. sanctuary is where Wellingtonians go to nest and never quite leave. Maybe it's randomly chosen our suburb with too much bush. Too much bush? And we won't get enough call, we won't get a call. Because of the bush. Yeah. What do you need the radio stop in the bush? The

Wellington Botanical Gardens which is on Tinacori Road Is that part of Kuroi? Because that's just at the sort of Boscham. Zalandia is? Yeah, Zalandia. That's where it just changes just past the gardens. Yeah. Whereabouts are you looking? No, the Wellington Botanical Gardens

We'll hang up on you immediately. Yeah. Okay. Okay, I'm just coming out of, I'm just pulling over in a safe space.

Is there a giant Percutta Carta? Corner of Duffy and Jit, G-I-P-P-S. Well, I don't know if we say that anymore. I think we'd say it. Well, if the council might actually need a little re-none. I think we call them Travellers. Yeah. They're just travellers.

Yeah, I'm at the corner on Travellers and do things. Oh, that is some of this. I expected that giant Pohuta Kawa to be on public land, but that's in somebody's front yard. Oh. Okay. Are we giving it to it? So wait a minute, is that the house you're outside?

People are calling out a behaviour called chat fishing, which we all know what catfishing is, pretending to be something hotter than you are and then surprise here I'm in person minga. Chat fishing is when people have been using AI like chat chepti

to help them craft little messages, you know, a little flirty banter on their hinge or their bumble or whatever and then they meet in real life and they've got no banter. Yeah, because you can't just be using AI while you're sitting there at a restaurant or a bar.

No, you have to come up with your own organic work. And so there was a woman who name is Rachel. We welcome Rachel to the show. She's not actually here. Welcome Rachel. Welcome Rachel. Georgia can give us a welcome Rachel?

G'day, Rachie. Yeah, that's Georgia, to be clear. Rachel is not on the show. Rachel said she was on a dating app with a guy on Hinge, deep emotional chemistry. And she was like, this is electric. Like, oh my God, we're hitting it off. Does Hinge have the built-in AI?

Because a lot of apps are going that way where it'll just be like rewrite this or I mean some people are copying, pasting from like AI but a lot of apps are now starting to I don't know, you can tell when I message because it's so, I've got no game. Does a recap, yeah, if you log on and it's just went a whole chat, you can just be like, give me the AI recap and it'll be like, so and so

I said this and everyone laughed. It's so rude, read my words that I wrote. Somebody would ever mute the group chat? Yeah, but I don't go back and read it and get it to summarise. I just don't know things. I just went into our messenger chat and just wrote a sentence

and then I can click the little AI symbol and it'll just be like, I can rephrase it, I can rewrite it, whatever. People are using it to come across as more charismatic. They're calling it AI-generated charm, more emotionally intelligent conversations, keeps them smoother, not so clunky, makes us think that you're all like, woo-hoo-hoo,

and then you're like face-to-face with them over a pastor, and they don't have anything to say. Just like, nice ravioli. She said in-person, God, ravioli. Shall we pause for the ravioli? 100% We had a ravioli and barley

It was amazing It had like a seafood Oh did you guys go to Bali We went to Bali Oh my god We're doing that thing Haley did last time She went to Bali

Oh my god when I went to Bali But it's hard to stop From about Bali isn't it I went to Bali It is Full circle moment Tell me more about it Actually

Tell me Yeah It's a side effect Of barley belly Is that the same parasites That are currently making me Wee out my bum

Oh have you got a bit of it Got a touch I thought I was better Yesterday I ate a lot of beige foods but then had a rich dinner. Ooh, baby. She's back at 2-N this morning.

I was preaching. Yeah, but at least you're flushing out. It's not coming out at the gobs, so you're fond. It is weird that I haven't lost any weight. I've actually put it on way from our trip, even though I'm sure it's all exited in a timely fashion. But it's a side effect, the same parasites that it's at your stomach, infest your brain and all you can think about is.

You fomit out great things about Bali. Yeah. Well, this person, Rachel, who we welcome back to the show, went on this date with this person and said he was awkward and dull. And someone who was like, I know exactly what's happened. You've chat GPTed, your charm. And now that you're here, you've got no game, no banter. She said you got chat GPTed into bed.

Do you think you could... She went far enough. Do you think you just switched to voice notes to stop that happening? I love... I switch to voice notes pretty quickly when I'm doing my flirty band. Sproul on the prowl. When prows on the prowl, she'll hit a voice note real soon. Or like video calls where you can't do that

and you just put them on the spot with questions? Yeah, I love it. And also it helps, I don't know, you get a vibe check from their tone. Yeah. You know what I mean? Can't fish? People are in three-year relationships with Chris Brown. People just don't voice, change to voice or do video calls if somebody else puts them off it.

Yeah. Well, I think it's... I think just be aware that we're on to it. Yeah. And just be yourself. And if yourself isn't good enough, then you'll die alone. And that's also fine, honestly. It's fine.

Aikon wrote a whole song about it. It's fun. It's fine. You know? 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 ZM's Fletchhorn and Haley.
