For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

From the ZM Podcast Network It's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley's Little Bit of Pod Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod Vaughan, I am going to need the song Runaway Train for my next story I told you guys about this, right? Oh my god! I should have actually waited until the podcast to really

get your reaction because everybody was gobsmacked by what I witnessed yesterday. Ask and you shall receive for the 1993 Smash It from Soul Asylum. It's a banger. It's Runaway Train. That's not my fault.

Just another lagging. It was Wi-Fi. It was Wi-Fi. It's a lagging. It's a lagging. Vaughn Smith Apple product. Would you like to hear the 2022 remaster? Yes, I would actually.

Yeah, they wish. Oh, more drama. I can hear the quality. Clearer. Go again with the old one. Muddy. Crisper. Oh, yeah. Wait, go again with the old one? Muddy. Crisper. Oh, yeah.

Okay, better drum. Way better. Better drum. Well, yesterday I witnessed... Oh, I should wait until... Where's the bit with the runaway train? You can't rush it. You were there when the blue torch burned in.

I was a kid that could use a little turn in. Running No, not yet, not yet. They actually, music video fact,

they actually put missing children, the pictures of the missing children in the music video and it was so successful the children got found they had to redo

the video with more missing children. Holy shit. You've got to reshoot just because they video with more missing children. Holy shit. What a pain. You've got to reshoot just because they found some kids. Yeah, I know. It's like, well,

can't blow the budget. I don't think they needed to reshoot. They just switched out the picture parts. Well, yesterday I saw a runaway... Wait. It's the next line.

Oh, okay. Myself first train. Are we all going to sing what I saw? Yeah. Runaway Pram never going back. Run away on the runway track.

Seems like a parent should be somewhere. Somehow the baby's in the air. So I finished a bike ride yesterday and I was outside my apartment. I was getting my keys out of my... Is this the same bike ride that you nearly got killed? Yes, by an Audi driver. What an eventful bike ride yesterday and I was outside my apartment. I was getting my keys out of my... Is this the same bike ride that you nearly got killed? Yes, by an Audi driver. What an eventful bike ride. What an eventful day.

Just stay at home. And I had my ear pods in and I turn around and I see in the middle of the road a pram hurtling towards the edge of the gutter and the wall. And a dad, screaming fast as anything behind it, grabs the pram a foot from the gutter and the wall and a dad screaming fast as anything behind it, grabs the pram a foot from the gutter. Oh, wow. And then reaches in and gets

the baby out of the pram. Wow, so it was there. What did you just receive the notification for? It was that my screen time is up 5% on this device. Oh, fuck. Because you went tenting, you were looking at your phone. No, it's on my laptop here at work, which tells me I'm doing more work than I was the week before.

And who should I invoice for this? Feed up, babes. No, I think it's all screens and devices on your network. No, there's absolutely no way because it was only like two hours a day. Right. There's absolutely absolutely.

Feed up. Well, anyway, so and then, so when I turned around. Yeesh, just tapped my phone. That screen time's through the roof. Yeah, you don't want to know that. So when I turned around again, the parents had taken the pram and the baby up

and they'd parked a van. Oh, this is a nightmare. So what they must have been doing is loading the baby into the back of the van and just taking their eye off of the pram for a second and the baby's just rolled away. I'm not a parent and I'm feeling

this fear. Because you know up the hill by my house they'd parked halfway up so that pram had gone maybe 30 metres? It's a steep ass hill. And if the pram got on the canber and went around the corner it would be flying down into one of New Zealand's busiest streets. Or a car.

Or a car would just come up the corner. I'm so glad that that did not end badly because that would have been like horrible to witness. Oh my God, stressful. What's the lesson here? The brakes. Do they have brakes, these prams?

Yeah, they do. Yeah. I really just want to do another runaway pram just to end the... Here we go. It's coming. Runaway pram, never demonstrate. Runway on run way straight. Seems that there should be parents somewhere.

Somehow the baby's in the air. Run away, pram, never coming back. It's great. Run away, pram, tearing up the track. Woo-hoo-hoo! Yeah. Well, thank God the baby's alive. Yeah, engage the brakes. Eng up the track. Woo-hoo-hoo. Yeah. Well, thank God the baby's alive. Yeah, engage the brakes.

Engage the brakes. But it always seems the same. Run away, Pram. Oh. Great remastered version, that too. You can hear the clarity. Thank God.
