From the ZDM podcast network, it's Fletchfallen and Haley's Little Bit of Pod. Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod. We've hummed and hard over this, haven't we, Fletch? What was the right approach? We're going away on a secret friend's holiday. We've discussed this. Oh, we have? We have, yeah.

We're kidnapping. Labor weekend. We're taking a day off either side. Extending it. Wait a day off either side. I thought we were taking two days before. I think we're going Wednesday. We're going after show Wednesday.

Are we taking Wednesday? Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and back at some stage Monday. That's what I've got on my calendar. And Monday's a holiday. You're correct. You are correct. You know nothing about the trip whatsoever has not been involved in it.

I don't know if it's a car ride or a flight or a boat or a helicopter. If it's a helicopter, that'd be pretty cool. I'm sorry, this guy, we're taking Vaughn away for a holiday. He's not paying for a single thing and he's like, a helicopter. A helicopter. We don't want you stinking money, may. But we're not getting a phone. This is a trip for you because you've had a hell of a year and your two best friends.

Both calendar and 12 month. Financial. Financial. My years that have sucked so far. My Chinese year of the dog or whatever it is a rabbit or snake or whoever it is. Yeah. Financial. 12 months to date and 2025.

Well, we thought it's important to have something to look forward to. And it has been a running joke ever since we started this, what, months ago, every day. and we're probably all sick of it. We will say a fake location where we're going. We're like, oh my God, this is so good when we get to Scotland. Or like, shit, do you have any euros left? Oh, God. When the conflict was happening, well, the Middle East conflict goes on, of course.

But when Iran was involved, there was a line. I said, oh, it's looking cold in Moscow at the moment. Yes, absolutely. And every now and then we'll drop in a Timoroo. Yeah, like we have five days. Yeah, oh, God, it's going to be a great roadie to the mount for our Airbnb. So we hummed and hard about this for a long time of how we actually, because there's an integral thing that we do need for the trip.

Do you think you know where we're going for our best friend's holiday? No, I actually don't have any idea. No, no idea. Sorry. This is exciting. Well, we were going to go all sorts of different routes to obtain certain things from you. And then we were like, well, it's probably just easier just to ask. You know what I mean?

Yeah. Cut a corner. Yeah. So we do need your passport. I actually don't have a passport Oh, fuck I don't have a valid passport This is not a refundable drug

You do not have I do, I have got a passport Do you need the physical passport Or do you need a copy? No, we just need it come on But then is this Is this a ruse itself? Is this a ruse?

Is this a ruse on the ruse? You don't need a fucking passport To go to Christchurch We can be double ruse I knew you need a passport to go I do remember someone once asking if you needed a passport To go to Christchurch for work

Yeah, they did. I remember that. Fine. So if you could just send us a photo of your passport, we may or may not be using it. Okay, I can eardrop that to you. But just as a side thought, like whose car would be better for a roadie?

Mine. The Ranger? No, mine. The Ranger is far too aggressive in gas-guzzly. Well, I'm going to have a family mobile. I'm going to have a back seat. No, and I've got, we don't want to be putting things in the tray. Oh, yeah, no, fair enough.

We can take the Mazda. We'll take the Mazda. Right, okay. And as a Mazda bastard, I am. I'm happening. I'm not going to debate massis. So you'll be driving. That would make me a masdibator.

But then Vaugh... This sucks on a road trip because Vaughn is always like, I want to drive or I get sick because I want the front seat. It's bullshit. And I have to always sit in the back. I'll buy some sea legs.

No. But then if I buy sea legs, we can't drink because there was that time I took a couple of sea legs and had three drinks and slept for 14 hours straight. It was glorious. I'm thinking of doing it this weekend.

Do not miss you sea legs. No, no, no. Please don't drink. See legs at your doctor and your pharmacist. We can't have you sleeping your whole way through our trip to Beijing. Oh.

I actually can't go to China. Oh, no. My social critic skills too low.
