From the ZM Podcast Network, it's Fletch, Fawn and Hayley's Little Bit of Pod. Welcome to a little bit of pod. Hi, this one's Hayley. I'm Hayley. Hi Hayley. Um, Dear Fletch, well we've received some correspondence from a lovely listener. And we're going to have to use Google Translate for this. Yes. Don't you worry, I've got my camera ready.

Oh lovely. Lovely. So this, a handwritten note on a sheet of refill. That's beautiful. And I really appreciate that. I love the sheet of refill, like a pad. Love a refill pad. Like you know the high school, were they 200 leaves? Yeah, but if you pushed too hard on them,

you'd ruin the next page. Oh, that sounds like you had a cheap refill. But remember when you had the, we had a thick pad, and then you'd gone halfway through, and it still had all the gel bit on the side? Yeah. Okay, Jeff Fletchbourne and Hailey Carwin and Shannon, girls included.

Who'd you guys on the pod talking about drinking a cup of chocolate? This here is the Italian hot chocolate, so thick you can stand the spoon up in it. Get out of here. Too white, too milk, too dark. Or, Fondante Classico e Blanco. And Blanco, yeah that's the white one.

The only, I've only made them stovetop. Takes a little while of stirring, but worth it. Enjoy, big fan. This year please sell the calendars. Good way to get people listening to the radio. Ha ha ha, now that's ask-to-mouth. Ask-to-mouth conversions. Podcast girls since forever.

But I tuned in to try get, I would say, we've got cursive writing. Okay, look, it looks beautiful. Try get the cold cuticle. You'd make something, some money, the gay sheep farms. Oh yeah, you'd make something some money you're the gay sheep farms oh yeah you'd make for the gay sheep farms congrats on the awards heart Caitlin xoxo so where is she sent this from well I imagine it'll be New Zealand if if it's

arrived like this but maybe no because I threw out the rapper yesterday when they came and I didn't see the return address but they're Italian so maybe it's an Italian import store or she's sent them from Italy. These are called chow bar, denso e cremoso. Yeah I know I've got the the Google Translate out taking a photo of the instructions yes we don't have a stovetop so we're going micro going micro. What we've opted for now Producer Shannon you were actually in the kitchen and you had to bring in the cups with the oven glove because they're Absolute lava hot tell us how you met how you prepared this Chocolatey drink well, I will say I looked my best because I was dancing to take McCrae There's a bunch of any orphans out there

But no color and I we ripped one open each, we whisked it for I'd say like a minute. Yeah. With a fork? We forked it. Okay, forked it. And then put it in for just over a minute. They started to explode.

Yeah, so it says on the instructions 120 and at about 110 it started to go up. No, but I've translated it says 120 for a 750 watt microwave and we've got a, I think over 1000 watt. Right. I don't want to brag, but NZMe does not hold back when it comes to microwave power.

Oh, this one doesn't have rust in it this time. That's crazy. Yeah, I know and that's nice. That is crazy. So I've got the Blanco and the Classico. Can I try the Blanco? Yes, but I'm going to. Because you know I'm a white chocolate bitch.

But I'm just doing the standard spoon. I'm a white chocolate bitch, is that what we say?, but I'm a white chocolate bitch. But I'm just doing the standard spoon. I'm a white chocolate bitch, is that what we say? You're a basic embarrassing white chocolate bitch. You fuck with Blanco, you know what I mean? I've done this stand up test. I actually fuck with all of these flavors. He actually fucks with literally the whole spectrum of chocolate.

Yeah, exactly. But I've done the test and it does stand up, but when you mix it. Oh my God, look it is standing up. When you mix my god, it is standing up when you mix it creates a skin I would say it's the consistency of pudding custard. Dude. It's custard. Oh my god, and this is a drink It blanco. This is how are you supposed to drink it? Oh, there is a blanko It's too hot down here Oh my god, this is outrageous that this is a drink oh

It's weird having pudding for breakfast This is pudding. Yeah, it is. It's like chocolate custard. It's not even hot chocolate. But like, you couldn't drink that. No, you couldn't drink it.
