From the Zedium podcast network, it's Fletchforn and Haley's Little Bit of Pod. Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod. You may notice I'm sporting a new t-shirt today. I wonder if it was new. Is it new-new or you-new? You-new. Use new. That's new-new. New-new.

Please don't eat on airborne. We're recording a podcast. This is a second-hand clothing store you got this from. Yeah, so I was up on the wonderful K-road in Auckland last night, having some dinner. Say the whole word because they only say K-road because they were. lazy and... Oh, Karanga Hape Road. Thank you.

And, oh, Kranaghapi happy. Yeah, that's... Yeah, Kranja happy. I was on Karanghape Road last night and waiting for my friend, I was going up and down the shops and it was, like, not that late in some of the shop that's known for its op shops. Yeah. Oh, my God, they're so expensive, though. I know.

Jesus. Yeah. You may as well buy a new top from Kada on, you know? Oh, God, what is this, Prada? Calm down. Anyway, so I'm walking along, just perusing the windows, and I... My eye catches a vintage Queen Banty. Queen's my favourite band of all time, of course.

You said band is not the woman. This isn't a T-shirt of Queen Elizabeth. No, no, no, Queen a la Bohemian Rhapsody. Allah, we are the champions, Allah. We will rock you. And I thought, oh. A fat bottom girls. Al-a bicycle race.

So I was like, oh my God, you know what? My old Queen T-shirt is so threadbare that's... I pulled it down the other day. My thumbs hooked. I hate when you do that. It's just gone. I did that into some undies. The red bear.

They're gone. So I go into the shop and no one else is in there because it's like a minute away from closing and I go up to the guy who's just folding some t-shirts at the front of the shop and I say, I hate to be a pain but I want that t-shirt on the mannequin.

Yeah. And he was like, oh yeah. Yeah, give me a second. And he goes and he gets it and he's like, Queen, my favourite band of all time. That's right he said. He said that. And I looked at him, I said, me too.

I said I've got three queen tattoos. And he was like, oh, what have you got? so we talked about those and then he goes oh but you're not a just the hits fake fan are you you know this whole thing

about if you're wearing a band team name me three songs oh yeah yeah everyone with their red hot chili pepper things yeah what's your favourite album that kind of stuff

yeah he's like oh you're not a just the hits fan though is he's got that train t-shirt and all he can name is drops of Jupiter yeah yeah what more do you need

to me when it comes to train one train song worth the entire queen discography whoa drums of Jupiter in her

So then he goes to me And he starts I can feel that he's like Boppy girl here You know what I mean Doesn't know a single thing About a band like queen And he goes

Oh yeah Well what's your favorite album And I said Oh it's news of the world And I said what's yours He said Night at the Opera Which is the most obvious one That's got Bohemian Rhapsody on it

Yeah And I was like Okay I'm sniffing a fake fan now Oh wow You've reversed a fake fan Yeah yeah He's trying to flash out A fake fan is a fake fan along

And he goes Okay what's your favorite song And I said my favorite queen song of all time is, It's Late. Now, you guys haven't heard that song, have you? I don't fucking know what that is. No, of course not. Should I pull it up?

No, oh, if you want. But, like, you won't know it. No one will know it unless they're a true Queen fan. I said, It's late off my favorite album. Got you here. Oh, sorry, there's another... It's not a video that's playing in the background. Okay, can you fast forward to the, like, a meaty bit of the song?

Where you reckon the meaty bit of the song is going to be 45 seconds in? A third of the way in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it kind of just goes, like, yeah, that's my favourite song. And it picks up into a big, rocky, bloody moment. Anyway, so I say, it's late. And I said, do you know it? And he said, no, I don't.

And I said, if you listen to News of the World Front or Bagg, and he said, no, it's not an album I'm familiar with. What? His favourite band. Fucking caught. Got you, mate. I'm surprised he admitted it and didn't just kind of, like, bluff his way through as a fake fan off the world.

Like, oh my God, it's so hard as a fan to choose one song. Yeah. But I know, but a real fan sniffs that out. And it's like, well, come on, pick one. Come on. Desert Island, where are we? And then he's like, Pohemian Rhapsody.

I know, yeah, if I was waiting for it, what's yours? Bohemian Rhapsody, you're bloody loser. Anyway, you tried to catch me. You didn't catch me. Wow, and now you've flipped it around on him. I flipped it around and caught you.

And you're the one selling the t-shirt in the shop window. I mean, everybody. And being a prick about it. Like, you're buying something off him. Yeah. And he decided to be a prick about it? Yeah. It's like everybody that has a Ramone shirt,

just because it's such a cool logo, right? I said to a five-year-old at a birthday party once. When my kids were five, I was like, name me three Ramon's songs. What did they give you? They gave me, like, or crying and then, like, running back to their mom. It's like, that's right, little bitch. By the way, it's, I want to be sedated.

Get out of here. The old man's asking me for three songs. What songs? I'm just looking at Queen's 10 most popular songs on Spotify. I mean, I Heart Radio. And Bohemian Rhapsody is number one, obviously. Don't Stop Me Now is number two. Oh, yeah.

Under pressure. David Bowie. Which I thought was a David Bowie. Freddie Mercury song, not David Bowie and Queen. No, it's Queen. Okay, it's Queen. I'm not a true fan. Another one bites the dust. We will rock you. Crazy little thing called Love. Somebody to Love.

Killer Queen. We are the champions of Radio Gaga. I mean, that is a fucking phenomenal. That's just the 10. That's the top 10. That's for your fake fans. We all love those. What are that could I have possibly said? Oh, he could have said any of them. But you, when I was like, we are the champions, you're like, too obvious.

I was like, that's their ninth most popular song. Oh, yeah, no total. We will rock you? No. That's no one's favorite. That's a stadium A little get-together Anyway, I caught it

You won You tried to fucking get me And I got you, bro Fuck you, bro Fuck you, fuck you You know what, fuck you You know what, fuck you You know what, fuck you
