Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Thank you, Sam. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Two minutes past six.
Hello.
I've just checked the weather. I think tomorrow, with this wintry polar blast, a bit of a snow dump on the parts of the South Island,
I think tomorrow could be the first day I have to wear shoes this year.
I've popped shoes on this morning.
I'm going to have to leave my Birks at home for the commute to work.
What's the predicted temperature?
Well, in Auckland, 11 is the low.
Nippy.
Compared to, say, 15 at the moment.
What about socks?
Would you accept me wearing socks and Birkenstocks?
Yeah.
Socks and stocks is fine.
Socks and stocks?
You've reached the age. Yeah, yeah, you're all good. Don't worry about it. Oh,s? Yeah. Socks and stocks is fine. Socks and stocks? You've ridged the age.
Yeah, yeah, you're all good.
Don't worry about it.
Oh, thanks.
You can give up.
It's fine.
Stop caring.
Yeah, it's fine.
Okay.
You're all good.
All nine the next year.
Okay, there's going to be a few chilly mornings.
It is there.
Yeah.
I don't have anything on my walls.
I'm cold.
I don't have any heating.
Yeah, maybe you should have started the renovations
more in summer.
We wanted to.
I was going to say.
You very well know that I tried to.
You have hit a sore point.
We wanted to.
Well, you've got a fireplace, right?
No, we took it out.
When does that go back in?
When the roof goes on.
The heat will go straight out, but at least you'll have a fireplace.
Well, the heat will go straight out when we don't have a roof on.
Well, good luck with that.
That's just how fires used to work in houses.
I remember your house down the bedroom end would be absolutely freezing,
but the lounge would be a sweltering sauna.
It would never get to that end of the house, would it?
No, never.
Now, coming up on the show this morning, 8 o'clock, next flight.
We've only got two more of these to go.
Two more to go.
So, pretty excited.
This morning after 8 o'clock, I reckon this, out of all of the trips,
this would be the one I'd want.
Now, I know where they're going as well.
And a little clue, I've been there before.
That's the clue.
And I would go back in a heartbeat.
Okay.
Okay.
Vaughan doesn't know, so he feels left out.
No, I don't listen.
You don't listen to the show?
Not a fan of the show?
No, I don't listen in meetings and stuff.
I was listening to you just then, but you've been to lots of places
because you're a Nepo baby.
In the finance industry.
In the entertainment industry.
What did my parents do?
Your dad's Jeremy Corbett.
Shh.
No one knows.
Oh, okay.
That's why I'm on seven days all the time.
Daddy, can I be on seven days a day, please?
Can I do my jocks on the telly, please, daddy?
Daddy, daddy. Can I be on the telly with you, daddy? Thank you, daddy. So, thanks. So thanks to Grapevisite, next flight after 8 this morning
and still one more trip as well this week to give away.
So if you want to join us in studio with your bags packed,
register at ZM online.
The top six is coming up.
Yeah, guys, we've got to cut some spending somewhere
and it looks like museums could be it.
So I've got the top six things you're going to be able to buy
in the Everything Must Go Museum fire sale.
You could really raise some money.
Yeah, I told you that the Auckland Museum especially
should be lived in by a superhero slash villain.
Oh, it would be a great super...
Yeah, you could put a Batmobile-esque car screaming out from that underground car park. It'd be's a great, it'd be a great super... Yeah, you can go to a Batmobile-esque car
screaming out from that underground
car park. It'd be great, wouldn't it? Yeah.
Or a super villain. You know, I'm willing
to toss a coin on that one. People
with excessive amounts of money
tend to err more on
the super villain side than the superhero.
Yeah. That's that, isn't it?
Okay, it's coming up in the
top six. Next on the show. There's
a man who was applying
for a job. Got to the job interview
and then made a wild
decision.
How's your leg? So
bad. It's gone from bad
to worse.
Behind the scenes, Hayley's, for the last year, has had a tingly leg.
Tingly leg, and now it's turned into a clicky tingly.
And your only diagnosis or your only option left is to amputate.
Well, that's where I've gone.
That's my assumption here.
I'm going to book a doctor's appointment, but I'm pretty sure I've figured it out.
It's going to be amputation.
It's got to come off.
Just feel stuffed.
Yep.
Yep.
Dr. Sproul.
There's a guy who shared an experience of a job interview on Reddit.
He turned up for this job interview. It was for a truck driving job.
Okay.
And he turned up 10 minutes early.
Yeah.
As you should do.
He signed in to the interview and they told him it would be like five minute wait.
Okay.
Time went on.
Yeah.
Really went on.
And he ended up waiting for 35 minutes, at which point he decided to leave.
He walked out of the interview.
Now he said that 35 minutes after his time,
so his interview was 10, at 10.35 left.
So he was there 45 minutes.
Oh, wow, okay.
He said that, he kept asking people,
I'm sorry, is there a delay?
And they said, oh, no, just sit tight, won't be long.
35 minutes later, nothing happened.
So he left. And he said he was feeling 35 minutes later, nothing happened. So we left.
And he said he was feeling really conflicted,
which is why I shared it online.
He was like, well, was I a bit hot on that?
You know, should I have stayed around?
But he said the way I see it,
if I was 35 minutes late for the interview
with no explanation as to why I'm late,
I would have never, they'd never give you the job.
Exactly, yeah.
So why should I expect the same from my potential employee,
employer, sorry. And if that's how they same from my potential employee? Employer, sorry.
And if that's how they're running things,
do you want to be working for... Yeah. Because is this kind of what split
people's opinions? Yeah.
Because he said while he was waiting, he saw a poster
of first aid information on the wall
and noticed the name of the man
that was interviewing him as well as a photo of him
and then he said that was the same guy who
walked past me at least three times
was the interviewer.
And he was like, ah, this is enough.
And he signed himself out.
Maybe it was a test, though, and he failed.
But what kind of test is that?
What a test of how much time they'll let you waste
so that they know they can just be like, oh, we need you to do, you know,
an extra shift and nah.
Whereas the people that wait an hour are more likely to push over
so they hire them. Yeah. So he probably the people that wait an hour are more likely to push over, so they hire them.
Yeah.
So he probably did himself a favour.
Of avoiding it.
Absolutely.
Getting out early.
Probably.
I think I might have left.
I think I would have lasted a little bit longer than that.
Is this in America?
Yeah.
Truck drivers in demand.
Like, they're literally in the driver's seat.
Totally.
Hey, hey, hey. hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Whoa, there it is.
So you just go work for a company that's on time.
But you don't want to go and get a job at a company you're already pissed off at.
You know, because you're going, oh, my God, that was a terrible experience.
You totally wasted my day.
Yep.
It's like just because you're looking for a job doesn't mean you've got nothing to do that day.
You probably got a lot of things to do.
You might have other jobs to hear about.
Yeah, exactly.
So a lot of people
chimed in saying
that they had
the same experience.
Someone said,
I'd hired a car,
driven 90 minutes
to a job interview,
waited 40 minutes,
and then they got told
that their hiring manager
forgot what day it was
and could they come back
the next day.
And they were like,
absolutely not.
That's a shambles.
You don't want to work for us.
Absolutely not.
A shambles like that.
Yeah.
Someone said they even walked out in the middle of a job interview.
They were saying more of us should feel free to walk out of interviews,
even if they refuse to tell you the baseline rate of pay.
That's not worth your time.
Just walk out.
Yeah.
I mean, I haven't had a job, like a proper sit down, hello, job interview.
No, neither.
Other than auditions, but they're different.
Jim, a mate of mine hires people and they come in and they do this test.
What kind of test?
Like maths?
Well, I mean, there must be some sort of number element to it because he sent us this guy's results.
Is he allowed to do that?
I don't know.
It was on the down low.
We don't know this guy's name. Yeah. A psychometric test, that's right. Oh, yeah. Is he allowed to do that? I don't know. It was on the down low. We don't know this guy's name.
Yeah.
A psychometric test, that's right.
Oh, okay.
That's what it was called.
Fancy known for, are you the right fit for this job?
Because you might want this job, but a weekend,
are you going to be really bored because this is quite like,
are you like an active thinker and like a go-getter and everything,
and a weekend, are you going to be sick of this job?
Yeah.
Didn't this company used to do it before we
got here, eh? Did it? Yeah.
I remember they used to, everyone that
came here used to have to fill out this test and they'd work
out if you're a psycho or
you know. Yeah, I don't know if it's to work out
if you're a psycho. It is, it's to work out
if you're going to steal all the...
Because we just do vibe checks now, don't we?
We're just about vibe checks.
Not a psycho. But a lot of workplaces do do these, yeah.'t we? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're just about vibe checks. Vibe check. Yeah. Not a psycho.
But a lot of workplaces do do these, yeah.
Yeah, because it's not, you might be,
not overqualified for the job,
but you might just not be the right fit for the job.
You could be a psycho.
You could be a psycho.
You could be a psycho.
But yeah, and they also want to see how you're going to fit with other people, right?
If everybody's like a, is it like the Maya Briggs?
No, that's a lawnmower.
Oh, NFP.
That's a lawnmower. Is it? Yeah, I took my Maya Briggs. That's a Briggs and Stratton. Oh, is that like the Maya Briggs? No, that's a lawnmower. Oh, NFP. That's a lawnmower.
Is it?
Yeah, I took my Maya Briggs.
That's a Briggs and Stratton.
Oh, is that a Briggs and Stratton?
Yeah.
Oh, what about my Maya Briggs and Stratton?
That's the test for the lawnmowers.
That's to see, yeah, what personality.
It's an extroverted leader of a lawnmower.
Is this lawnmower right for your lawn, the Maya Briggs and Stratton?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's exactly what it is.
Yeah.
You don't want a lawn that thinks they're too good for
You know, a weekend
They're like, I actually want more of a challenge
Than this tiny townhouse
Yeah
Yeah
I was going to say, couldn't you just bring your own ENFP
Your own Maya Briggs
Results
You know when you go like, I'm a Libra
You could also include like, I'm a Libra ENFP.
That's mine.
What is that?
Extroverted.
NFTs?
No, mate.
We're off NFTs now.
No, no, no.
ENFP.
EN.
Extroverted.
Fun.
Narcissistic.
Fun person.
Right.
Oh, the four letters thing.
You know, that's the Maya Briggs, isn't it?
Yeah, it is.
Is that the Maya Briggs?
Yeah, with the letters.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what's my lawnmower?
Loud, two-stroke, L, T.
Remember we did our Maya Briggs.
What were you?
And it was pretty,
I can't remember.
Not the psycho one, though.
I wasn't the psycho one.
Yeah, right.
A lot of red flags on mine.
A lot of red flags.
Mine was like,
red flag, red flag.
It really did sub Vaughan up.
This combination is one big red flag.
It really did nail Vaughan.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
I'm doing a lot of writing at the moment.
And remember yesterday I said I was feeling creative
and so I wanted to harness it during the day.
Yeah.
Because you've got a whole comedy show coming up.
I do.
Tickets on sale now.
Tickets on sale.
Comedyfestival.co.nz.
Flying out the door.
Show not written.
Yeah. It's based Comedyfestival.co.nz. Flying out the door. Show not written. Yeah.
It's based on trust alone.
Yeah.
That people are,
because I can't guarantee it's going to be any good.
It's not finished.
You could make the readers though,
just list the most trusted New Zealand people and brands.
Do you think so?
I think you could.
Okay.
That's a goal now.
That's a goal now.
I mean, you're selling all these tickets
and you haven't written a show yet
It's in the process of being written
And because I knew
I knew this would happen
I felt so creative yesterday
I was like, I'm going to spend the whole day on the show
And I went home and what did I do?
I had to rip off jib off the walls
And then like renovate for five hours
Well, you shouldn't have gone home
Well, that's why I went
I went and got a little brekkie after the show
So I could sit with my laptop And just smash out a little bit of work.
And while I was hooning, just a delicious salmon omelette.
Oh, that's awesome.
Wow.
How could this be?
It must be nice.
I can see those omegas have settled.
The omegas.
Omegas 3, 9, 6.
Look at my skin.
Well, your skin is certainly looking flush with salmon.
I know.
It's pink.
It's literally pink from the salmon.
I saw, I just like looked up and saw a member of the New Zealand police.
And can we just say, thank you for your service.
Really appreciate everything you do.
You're really doing your best.
But this particular gentleman took my breath away.
We're going to hock off.
We're going to hock off.
We're going to hock off on our hands.
We're going to hock off.
To the point where I was like, like eyes bulging out my head.
My jaw like hit the floor.
Had I had a fork, I would have dropped it.
Right.
At that point.
And I looked around and there were other people being like oh Jesus Christ he was like a comedy
level
hot cop like it was
so stupid right he was like at
least six foot six
like he was a big hot cop
he's in your wheelhouse you love them tall
yeah I love them tall
and he was really lean
like he wasn't super thick.
Oh, so that's not quite your type.
Yeah, that's okay.
You know, I also keep my eye open for others.
That's why I wanted to bring him to the group,
the whole group to have a little look.
It's not all about finding someone for me.
And then he had the cop arms.
What are cop arms?
You know, like the T-shirts are so tight.
They know what they're doing.
They're tight in the arm.
His T-shirt was so tight.
I think he grabbed a woman's one by mistake.
Right.
Like it was fitted.
Like I reckon he got issued a T-shirt,
then took it to a tailor and was like zip it in the sides a little bit.
And like, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
He was like, he was was blonde also not my type
right okay
but just absurd
he has a light smile
on his dial
and then you could feel
the entire cafe
yeah
literally follow
follow him
with their eyes
to the bathroom
and then I said
hot cop alert
in the group chat
yeah
and then I was challenged
photo or it didn't happen
and then I was really as I was like waiting for him to come out of the bathroom so I could be Yeah. And then I was challenged photo or it didn't happen. And then I was really,
I was like waiting for him to come out of the bathroom.
So I could be like, snap.
And then I realised how pesty that was.
So I calmed down.
But I just, what, bravo.
You're okay, do you need a moment?
It was just sort of like,
one of the most absurdly good looking people I've ever seen.
Right.
As a member of our police force. Now you're
saying you're on your laptop with your
salmon omelette, with your creative juices.
Yes. Is this going to make it
into the show? Perhaps.
The whole writing
changed tone after seeing the salmon.
Right. Did it kind of turn into some kind
of erotic novel? I'm just saying don't bring
your kids to my comedy
fair show. The last half's particularly erotic. A lot of erotic fiction. Yeah, just saying don't bring your kids to my comedy fair show. The last half's
particularly erotic.
A lot of erotic fiction.
Yeah, really.
Because it's like
he would have had to
have got custom made pants.
Oh, absolutely.
Because these were some legs.
Okay, right.
And next on the show
I'll tell you how
I spent 10 minutes
leering at a woman
in a public place.
Yeah.
And now I'm going to describe
her physical nature.
And how you followed her with your phone to the bathroom.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because I thought I'd take a photo
and send it to the group chat for the lads.
Yeah, that's a good point.
You couldn't do that, could you?
No.
There were some real double standards at play here.
Well, we're just claiming our space back.
We've been objectified our whole lives.
It's time to flip the table.
Right, so two wrongs.
Make a right.
Make a right.
I don't know if that's a thing.
Make a very, very right. Yeah, good. I don't know if that's a thing. Make a very, very right.
Yeah, good.
Silly Little Pole is next on the show.
And today's Silly Little Pole, turning up empty-handed to a party when someone says,
Don't bring anything.
Don't bring anything.
You're fine.
No, no, no.
Just bring yourself.
Then someone turns up.
You're like, wow, you didn't bring a single thing.
Wow, not even a bloody bar of chocolate.
Thanks.
Bar of chocolate to a dinner party.
I bought a bar of chocolate.
Just one of those sort of little thin ones.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Silly little poe, silly little poe.
It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Today's silly little pole.
Is it okay to show up empty handed if you're told not to bring anything?
Six.
So I was just letting out a little sigh. I think it depends on what sort of thing.
Are we going around to someone's house to watch a football game?
Or are we going around for a dinner party?
If it's a dinner party and they say,
no, no, no, we've got everything sorted, just bring yourself.
I'll always at least bring wine.
A wine or a pud.
Or a wine, yeah, a pud.
Or some nice garlic bread.
Some of us bring a nice garlic bread.
I mean, I buy enough Mama Fia rallies for everybody
and then you bring your bougie garlic bread,
which I would say is not as good.
I'm going to agree with him.
It's not as good.
Get stuffed.
Mama Fia rallies is number one. Mama Fia rallies is trash. I mean, I was. Get stuffed. Mama Fiorelli's is number one.
I was shocked to learn
that Mama Fiorelli's is margarine, not butter.
And I'm very anti-margarine.
Can you tell? No, you can't, because it's so yum
and you're drunk anyway. She lied to you.
Can you drunk?
The other day when we had drinks before
Florence and the machine,
I just said to everybody, just bring yourself.
He genuinely did.
And there was enough stuff there.
But then some people bought some stuff.
It's all good.
Yeah.
It also depends on the people because we do dinner parties a lot
with another particular couple, our friends.
Oh, yes.
Wow, I know.
How many times have I invited you over?
How many times? It's just so far away. Oh, I know. Do not... How many times have I invited you over? How many times?
It's just so far away.
Oh, my God.
But we'll go like, they leave,
so they'll put on the whole meal, basically.
We'll bring drinks, and then you retaliate.
Right, so you've got to...
You've got to balance out.
You've got to pay.
I've got it, you've got it.
Yeah.
Well, 64% of people said it is fine to turn up empty-handed
if you're told not to bring anything.
36% of people saying, oh, no. Remember I is fine to turn up empty-handed if you're told not to bring anything. 36% of people saying, oh, no.
My master said you never turn up empty-handed.
Courtney says, yes, if you want me to bring something,
tell me that for goodness sake.
Yeah.
Don't tell me to just bring yourself.
And then I turn up just myself.
And there's a bit of an air of, oh, she only brought herself.
Yeah.
Jared said, people need to grow up
and not say that
if they don't mean it
oh grow up
grow up
we've got to grow up already
yeah
Bree says
I'm a student
I'll take the opportunity
for free stuff
do I know better
yeah
I do
okay
but then she's like
she's like been told
to just bring herself
she's going to eat so much and drink so much then she's been told to just bring herself.
She's going to eat so much and drink so much. And she's going to get some takeaways too.
Yeah, she's going to take a doggy bag.
The only thing she brings is a Sistema.
Yeah, to fill up with meat.
Corb says, yes, let's not play this game.
I get it enough everywhere else.
You want me to bring a bottle of wine and Mama Fiorelli's garlic bread?
Just give me the word.
Yeah.
Mama Fiorelli's. Fantastic.
This is why people tell you not to bring anything
Corbs, is because you keep bringing shit garlic
bread. That is the best garlic bread.
It's not the best garlic bread. I'm happy to
splurge $4 to get a Mama Fiorelli's.
We should invite Corbs. He sounds fun.
I had this big flatbread
garlic bread at the weekend.
And it had like onions
and... Oh, I know that one.
Yeah, you get it from the butcher.
I've never seen it anywhere else.
Oh, we've had it for years.
It's so good.
Yeah.
And then it was like,
yeah, it was really good.
It had garlic paste on it.
Yeah, garlic paste.
Caramelised onions.
It's a focaccia.
No, it can't be better
than Mama Furr Rally's.
It's a focaccia.
Well, it does have those annoying seeds
on the top for a start.
Mama Furr Rally's needs to chill out
on the sesame seeds.
I know the sesame seeds
are part of it.
Delightful crunch.
To the microwaved
Mama Fiorale.
And your teeth
and everything.
Karen says,
if I say it to somebody else
it's totally fine
for them not to bring anything
but if someone says that to me
I'm definitely taking something.
Yeah.
So she'll say it
but not do it.
Maddie says, because someone else will inevitably bring something
and you'll feel shitty that you didn't, so you always take something.
Could just be a box of favourites.
Isn't that the thing to do when you're told not to bring anything?
According to the favourites ad.
Yeah.
It used to be a dairy milk tray or a box of roses back in the day.
Yeah.
And then favourites stomped on in.
But you know all those if it for drinks or something, do you?
Drinks and a barbecue.
Yeah.
Maybe.
We bring a Whittaker's block, you know, sometimes.
People say, I don't really eat a lot of pud.
You don't need a full bloody trifle.
Always refer to pud.
Yeah, but just a Whittaker's block to share between four is enough.
For me.
For what?
For me.
Ash said, always just grab a couple of bags of chips
and some dip.
Yeah.
You can't go wrong.
You can't go wrong with a bit of nibbles.
Bring some cheese and crackers.
I bring cheese.
I think they might get shitty
because if everybody goes hard on the chips and dip,
they might have taken up a bit of valuable time
in real estate.
As I see,
you always got to save a bit of room for port.
Old BYO cheese balls.
And people always mock,
but yet they are always the first chips to go.
Bro, mum of February's and cheese balls?
Was this guy a student in 2004?
To be fair, though.
I'm not wrong.
When I came round to your house last weekend, you had put on a hell of a charcuterie.
Yeah.
There was all sorts.
And there was a sweet charcuterie.
Yeah.
Two charcuteries and then a bowl of cheese balls.
The cheese balls were gone first.
No, like, and it wasn't just Fletch.
Every time.
And before My Chemical Romance at that big party,
cheese balls, first to go.
First to go.
I'm telling you.
Because they're such a novelty.
You see them, you're like, what the hell?
Yeah.
And then you're like...
At a kids' party, you might as well put out
some of those little red sausages
that you've been boiling for a little bit too long
and they're too excited now.
What a great idea.
Cheerios.
What a great idea.
Those things? Yeah, the skin. And hundreds and thousands weeks. What a great idea. Some Cheerios. What a great idea. Those things?
Yeah, the skin.
And hundreds and thousands biscuits.
The bright red skin.
Oh, yeah.
Is that?
I don't have any word on what that is.
I don't know.
Wait, what is the skin of a Cheerio?
Yeah, my grandfather, who literally ate everything,
he peeled the red skin off Cheerios,
and that's how I've always been like,
I don't know if I trust him,
because this guy would eat anything, rotten or not.
Guys, this is basically a
health food. Okay.
The skin on Cheerios
is collagen.
Okay, people love collagen.
I'd rather eat that
than the collagen powder.
Much cheaper. But your body can't ingest
collagen, can it? It might also be problematic that
the collagen is encasing nothing
but highly, highly processed salted pig anus.
No, that is straight from the pig.
That's sliced off the pig and put in a little collagen sack,
and that is it.
No processing needed.
Straight from the anus.
Ali's correct.
It's just...
You boil them?
Holy moly.
One final note to finish on.
Yep.
Cat, etiquette, manners, respect.
Never show up empty-handed.
It tells you a lot about somebody.
Oh.
I reckon she went to finishing school.
Oh, yes.
She's got manners.
She feels like she went to finishing school.
She knows how to curtsy.
Silly.
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM.
Now, how are you two gentlemen before me?
How are you two gentlemen before me?
Okay, Shakespeare.
How...
How are you?
I'm good.
Tired, tired.
And you are two gentlemen before me.
I am.
At some point, testosterone coursed into your...
No, I think...
Isn't it made in the...
Don't the balls tell the brain?
Hey, testosterone.
But don't the balls do?
I don't know.
I don't know any of that.
No, the balls don't because I've got high levels of testosterone too
with polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Right.
Shout out.
Testosterone is a hormone that your gonads.
Do I have balls?
Testicles or ovaries.
Apparently both are known as gonads. Yeah, gonads. Are they? Do I have gonads?icles or ovaries Apparently both are known as gonads
Yeah, gonads
Are they?
Do I have gonads?
You've got gonads
You've got innie gonads
We've got outie gonads
Yeah, my innie gonads
Mainly produced testosterone levels
Are naturally much higher
In people assigned male at birth
Than in people assigned female at birth
If testosterone levels are too high or too low
It can cause certain symptoms
Yes, indeed
Like your hair falls out
It does
Yes
Yeah That's why people with polycystic ovarian syndrome Lose their hair as well And big manly men Yes, indeed. Like your hair falls out. It does. Yes. Yeah.
That's why people with polycystic ovarian syndrome lose their hair as well.
And big manly men don't need hair on their head.
Yeah.
And big manly women also don't.
So there is a guy.
So at some point your voice would have dropped a bit for you to know.
Yeah, I can't wait.
Yeah.
One day.
What's the lowest note you think you can hit?
Talking.
Oh, you need to catch me when I've got a cold
Hello
That's good
Hello
Wow, that's really good
Wow
Oh, okay, that's also good
A couple of low voice
Because there's a man who has just won the Guinness World Record
for lowest voice.
Listen to this.
No te la so fa mi re.
No.
How do they?
Te la. Where are they still going?
He should do like horror movie sound effects.
He's doing notes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeez, imagine that guy.
You pop a seat on the speaker.
How do they measure that?
Do they have a sound device or something?
Yeah, they do.
It'll just be like a tuner, basically.
That'll be reading the note that he's
hitting.
The vibration.
So he's like right down the bottom of the bloody piano.
That is so low.
It like vibrates.
How high can he go? Does it say how high,
how far up the other end can he go? Nah, I don't think so.
Don't even think that's possible.
But I wonder what his normal talking voice sounds like.
Zee, my name is Stephen.
Hello.
It is so nice to meet you.
Isn't that what, like, that's like, it literally vibrates.
Like, you know, if you go high enough, it like shatters a glass.
So has he got big gonads?
Huge.
Huge.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if he's got big balls or not.
The Guinness World Record didn't check, I think.
He's probably got another Guinness World Record waiting to happen.
Yeah.
Well, yeah, two for one.
I'm pretty sure he's broken his own record.
Is there a picture of him there?
Is he bald?
Yeah, he is bald.
Yeah.
Testosterone imbalance.
Testosterone.
Yeah.
He had to give up his hair to hit those low notes.
How do you sort of figure that out I guess you're a singer
And you just
Just keep going
Lower and lower
Anyway
Lofty aspirations guys
You can practice these things
You can stretch your vocal range
Don't know if you can
Hit as low as him
Do you have a level
That we can make it to
I think he's like a G7
A G7
And what am I
What would I be
Just talking like this.
Just sort of like a G plus four.
Oh, okay.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six.
All right.
Museums are under the squeeze on funding.
And some national treasures are at risk.
Outside of Te Papa, no funding, government funding for museums. Well, that's the National Museum, isn't it?
That's the National Museum.
Does Wellington have a museum?
If that's the National Museum.
No, that is.
There's the Wellington Museum, which is down on the waterfront.
It's not great.
I think it's called the Wellington Historic Museum.
Are you thinking of Te Papa?
No, no, no, the other side.
There's one by the arena, isn't there?
Oh, Finiston Street.
What's that?
I thought that was a maritime museum or something.
In 2013, it was voted by the Times as one of the world's best 50 museums,
the Wellington Museum.
We're all flying to Te Papa
and we're ignoring one of the world's top museums.
I'm not ignoring it.
I've been there.
Wellington's got heaps of museums.
Wankers?
Bloody arty wankers.
You're so good, do you?
You've got just so much space to spare
just filling it up with old crap.
We've got the bloody treaty.
Do you have the treaty down there?
Yeah, at the National Library.
Russell or Paihear, shouldn't it?
I don't know if it should, should it?
I really
have... I don't
care where it is. It's at the National Archives
in New Zealand.
Oh, we've got the archives.
But they don't leave it out. You shouldn't leave
something like that out. That's an absolute treasure.
What, do you think someone will steal it?
Yeah, I think so.
Someone will punch it.
Doesn't it already have some coffee rings on it?
No, you're thinking of that pirate map you made in primary school.
With the tea bags and the burning of the lighter.
Yes.
Yes.
Gosh.
Is that in a museum, that map that I made?
Yes, it is.
Oh, yes.
Yeah, the museum of mum and dad's attic made? Yes, it is. Oh, yes. The Museum of Mum and Dad's Attic.
Secret.
The code is written in lemon juice.
What?
Yeah, good stuff.
Good fun.
Have we checked Te Titi or Waitangi for any lemon juice hidden clauses?
I don't think they've done that.
I don't think we have.
They should give it a test.
But yeah, apparently our museums all over the country feel in the squeeze.
Yeah, absolutely.
Why don't they just charge tourists lots of money?
Tourists are used to paying lots of money.
Wasn't it the case that if you could show that you paid rates, you could get into it?
Yeah, you can get it.
That's the Auckland Museum. That's the Auckland Museum.
If you're an Aucklander, right, you can go in for free.
You give your full name and you give show ID and they look you up.
Yeah, as a rate payer.
As a rate payer.
Good stuff.
But then if you live in Auckland and you are renting...
Yeah, I don't know how they do it.
It kind of covers the rates.
I don't know.
Anyway, I'm not too familiar with what other museums have around the country,
so I thought I could tell you the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum.
Now, I mean, they're not obviously selling these,
but I mean, if times get that tough,
maybe they could raise some money.
They could easily sell these.
I'm looking to buy.
Number six on the list, the Volcano House.
Yeah, that's a good one.
At the Auckland Museum.
With the price of rent and the interest rates on the rise,
you'll put up with the erupting Rangitoto screen
on a 10-minute loop just to live in it.
Yeah.
You know, put in a good bit of air plug,
some noise cancellers. Have they updated that? No, not recently. just to live in it. Yeah. You know, put in a good bit of air plug and some air plugs
and noise cancellers.
Have they updated that?
No,
I saw it recently.
Is it still old?
It's been old.
Okay.
Who's the newsreader on it?
Yeah,
I saw it recently too
but I can't,
I wouldn't know their name.
TV3's Darren McDonald.
Yeah,
he's a great newsreader.
He proved it.
He read.
He proved it.
You try reading
news on drugs.
Yeah.
And he did it every day.
At lunchtime.
Jeepers, creepers.
We didn't do it every day, but there were our cases when he did do it.
But yeah.
At lunchtime.
On pingas.
Yeah.
On the pingas.
Yeah.
Yep.
Number five on the list of the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum.
A taxidermied pony. Yeah, I want it. buy from Auckland Museum, a taxidermied pony.
Yeah, I want it.
A big, full-size taxidermied pony.
Where would you put that?
In the front, in the lounge, and I'd just move everything else out,
and people would come in the front door and be like,
huh?
This is the stables.
What did you come in here for?
Yeah, come through the back.
Come into the lounge, not the stables.
Number four on the list of the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum,
pictures of cats from the Cats Collection. Number four on the list of the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum, pictures of cats
from the cats collection.
Did you know,
this is actually fascinating.
You can go to
theaucklandmuseum.com.
You can click on
online collections
and you can just type in keywords
and it'll show you
all the photos
that they've got online.
Huh.
But they don't have them up in the museum.
They're just in a vault somewhere.
No, they're just like a digital.
They're a digital.
Like you can put in your town.
You can put in your street.
Wow.
And it'll have like a story.
I just put in Q-Mute.
Are they all just manky tabbies?
Well, no.
Yeah.
No, no.
The cats are just any picture of a cat that's ended up in there.
There's like cat show cats.
There's prize winning cats.
There's literally like Sir Edmund Hillary's wife. Is she called Cat? Patting a cat. Oh, patting a cat that's ended up in there. There's like cat show cats. There's prize winning cats. There's literally like Sir Edmund Hillary's wife.
Is she called Cat?
Patting a cat.
Oh, patting a cat.
Because it's got a cat in it.
So one of the keywords is cat.
I typed in QMU
and now I'm just looking
at historic photos of QMU
and the QMU show.
How fascinating.
Number three on the list
of the top six things
you can buy from Auckland Museum,
a mower skeleton.
A skeleton.
You could use that as a hat rack.
You could use that as a coat rack. You could use that as a coat rack.
You could put blankets over it.
Do you know the mower skeletons that they have there are not real?
What do you mean?
They're fake.
They're replicas.
They're replicas.
Yeah.
How was it for ages they had the mower and it was always like body and head straight up?
And then a few years ago they were like, we've actually found another bone and it means the head wouldn't have been straight up.
It was a down.
Angular.
It would have been more angular.
More giraffe-like.
Yeah, pointed.
Than a wreck.
Flatter.
Auckland Airport have got that one.
The concrete one.
The domestic.
I want them to snap the neck off
and put it the right way.
Put a hinge on.
Put a hinge on the neck.
Yeah, yeah.
It's ugly.
It is ugly.
And it's also giving international tourists
the idea that they might see these like emus just wandering around paddocks. Let's cut the neck. Yeah, yeah. It's ugly. It is ugly. And it's also giving international tourists the idea that they might see these, like,
emus just wandering around paddocks.
Let's cut the neck off and put a hinge on it.
I say we just get rid of it.
And then there's a kiwi that's as big.
The scales will let her whack.
Yeah.
Tourists, no wonder they...
It's misleading.
So misleading.
I feel disappointed when they see a kiwi.
Number two on the list of the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum, crystals
and rocks.
I've got so many of them.
And they've been stored in the basement, so they haven't had a full charge.
They haven't been charged?
They haven't had a full charge.
They haven't had their full power.
We've had all the five planets aligned overnight.
Yeah, I know.
Those rocks and crystals will be fully charged.
Oh, dude, my dude.
I'm all charged up.
Absolutely charged.
And number one on the list of the top six things you can buy from Auckland Museum,
when I was a kid, this was the scariest thing I ever saw and it gave me nightmares for months.
The mummy sarcophagus.
Yeah, yeah.
I thought that mummy was chasing me for a long time.
Grow up.
Yeah, what a baby.
What a baby being scared of a 2,500-year-old dead body.
Yeah, baby.
What a baby.
What a baby being told this is what it looks like because we've x-rayed it and seeing the hollowed out eyes of old dead body. Yeah, baby. What a baby. What a baby. Being told this is what it looks like
because we've x-rayed it
and seeing like the hollowed out eyes of a dead body
and being like...
Yeah, toughen up, baby.
What a baby.
And if you just put a nice bit of glass on top,
it would make quite the conversation piece coffee table.
Oh my God, it would.
It might be a little stinky, a bit dusty.
You might need a fee breeze it.
Yeah.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Well, being the show's resident Catholic,
I was pleased to see the leader of my church.
Pope.
When is the last time you went to church
that wasn't a wedding or a funeral?
Teenage Vaughn?
I did go stoned to a Christmas Eve mass.
And a guy in front of me had a... my mum was like, we'll pick you up.
Because Morrisville wasn't doing the midnight mass on Christmas Eve.
She's like, we'll pick you up because we're going to the Hamilton one.
And I was like, okay.
But then, oopsie daisy, one of the very few times that I've been involved in my own illegal house plant, mum picked me up and I was like,
I think my brother and sister knew.
They were like, oh, this isn't good.
But mum and dad were like, oh, he's all right.
We'll go.
And the guy in front of us had a little statue of Mary.
Oh, yeah.
He had his own like, I say little,
it would have been like two and a half foot tall.
And he kept touching her during the,
that freaked me out. So anyway, I had to go and sit outside and get half foot tall. Oh. And he kept touching her during the, that freaked me out.
So anyway, I had to go and sit outside and get some deep breaths.
Probably that.
Right.
Okay.
Probably that was the last time.
So a long time ago.
A long time ago.
A long, long time ago.
Well, but you kind of go to mass for funerals these days.
Have you been like?
No, my Catholic grandmother is still alive.
Ah.
Yeah.
Because that's the only time I've been to Mass is funerals.
Yeah, but my other grandparents didn't have like overly religious.
They were in a church, but it was for funerals.
That's fair to say you've left religion behind a long time ago.
Fair to say.
Yeah, fair to say.
Fair to say.
Well, fair to say, alfair to say.
What is that?
Alfair to say. Alfair to say. El fetise. What is that? El fetise.
El fetise.
Do you speak Latin, do you?
Yes.
Brother.
Yes.
Well, the Pope yesterday, the picture of the Pope was everywhere.
Yeah.
And the Pope was in a long puffer jacket.
Kind of like what Steve Hansen wears.
But white.
Yeah, when he was coaching the All Blacks.
Yeah.
Like a long rugby coach, yet
guy who talks to God.
Yup. Puffer jacket.
Like a huffer puffer. And it's puffy.
It looks like Rihanna's backup dancers at the
Super Bowl. Yeah. Like that's
what it looks like. And it made sense,
right? Because you're like, the Pope gets cold
and he dresses in white.
Yeah. It makes sense. This makes sense.
Or a blue one or a red one.
He's just in a puffer jacket.
I didn't want to know what brand it was because he's Italian.
He should also, well, no, he represents, you know, he lives in Italy.
The place inside Italy.
What's it called?
The Vatican City.
The Vatican City's inside Italy, but it's his own country, right?
Yes.
So I thought he might have been sporting an Italian brand.
Hafri Pafri.
Yes. Balenciaga
or... Yeah, yeah. And I
was like, oh, okay. And I saw it and I didn't think too much
of it. Because I was like, dude gets cold.
I thought the same thing. But he looks silly.
He looks funny. It looked funny. It looked funny
but it was plausible. I mean, he literally, he walks
around in like floor-length
robes and a chain and a funny hat.
It was plausible. So it's like, well, yeah, totally plausible.
Dudes, it was AI.
Yeah.
If you saw that photo.
And nobody knew.
Yeah, if you saw that photo and thought, yep, that's the Pope.
He's cold.
He's cold.
He's in a long puffer.
That was not real.
That was not real.
And this is the world that we're living in now.
It's done so well.
And it's something that you don't think about.
So it's not like we spend all day being like,
man, I wonder what the Pope wears when it's cold.
Not thought about it.
Saw it in a puff jacket.
You're like, that makes sense.
It goes with the outfit.
These AI images aren't as crude as somebody just cutting a head in Photoshop
and putting it on somebody wearing that.
They're just generating the entire image.
It's wild.
Also, what do you think he does wear
when he gets cold? Like, what did the Queen wear?
I used to always think this. Does she have a jumper?
She had good anoraks, didn't she? She had good
good anoraks.
On the Scottish Estates, hooning around in her Land Rover,
she always had a wicked anorak when she got out.
And like a big woolen jumper
under there.
Yeah.
Yeah, that makes sense.
And she'd sit there.
Knitted coats,
good knitted coats.
Any trackies, you reckon?
No.
$10 trackies from the warehouse?
No.
Hayley, don't speak ill of the dead.
Oh yeah, she died.
She'd have a handcrafted blanket
for her lower half
if it was cold, you know.
Oh, good, yeah.
But the same thing happened
with a blanket over the legs.
Same thing happened
the weekend before
last when everybody was like, Trump's
about to get arrested, he's being
indicted, and all these photos
came out of him running away
from police or being escorted by
police. Some of them
looked quite good. Some did look a bit
rubbish. But the key there was
that he was running
away from police.
So that was the definite way.
He's not a runner.
Those were fake.
But some of them, they looked good as well.
So good.
Do you think it's like they're using the bots as well? Because you can ask the bots to do a better job than you could at Photoshop
because they know everything that you could ever do with Photoshop and technology.
Well, even at the weekend, the Marama Davis comments that she made,
people online were like, hang on, do we know that this is her saying this
or is this AI?
I saw a lot of that online.
So smart men.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so now we're living in this world where we're like,
not only do we have to just double check that they've actually said it,
it could have been faked to make them say it.
Yeah, because someone once said I tweeted something bad in 2000,
but that was AI.
It was comments I made.
Was it?
Yeah, yeah, it was AI.
Yeah, okay, right.
You've played a little bit with AI, like creating a picture from text.
Yeah.
I can never get it to work right.
Yeah.
And then there was the other one where it was even like drag a picture in
and we'll make it look different.
Like drag a photo in and we'll animate it
or drag something in and we'll make it look photorealistic.
Couldn't get that to work either.
I was reading an article yesterday.
Some journos in the UK took photos of their pantry and their fridge
and then said to AI, what can I make with all of this?
Shoot, that's good.
I've heard about that.
Some of the recipes were terrible
and you would never even eat them
in a million years, let alone make them.
Tomato, banana, stew.
That's kind of the way things are going.
You could be like,
you'll probably have a camera in your fridge
in your pantry.
Some smart fridges do have cameras now. And you'll be like,, you'll probably have a camera in your fridge in your pantry. Like I mean a lot of fridges, some smart fridges do have cameras now.
And you'll be like, what can we have for dinner?
Also, Levi's, the jeans, the denim company predominantly, have said going forth they'll be using a mix of AI and real life models for their clothes.
Oh my God, so hot models are going to be out of jobs.
So they've just been like keeping themselves all tight and bright
for no reason now.
And then some of them will continue to get Levi's work,
but Levi's, to keep their costs down, get a grip.
The cost down of their marketing will use AI
because then they don't have to pay that person
every time they use it in another territory.
Oh, but that's the thing.
That's where all of us will bloody be out of jobs
because you can go on AI
and say,
write me an entertaining
thought piece on XYZ
and then they can put
a voice to it
and then we don't have
an income.
Is AI going to pay my mortgage?
Maybe.
How good would that be?
I'd send an AI of me to work.
Would you? Absolutely. Just chill. I'd have a sleep in. Right now I'd send an AI of me to work. Would you?
Absolutely.
Just chill.
I'd have a sleep in.
Right now I'd still be asleep.
You don't value the physical human connection
that we experience each morning
as we look in each other's eyes.
The hugs.
The hugs.
The hellos.
The fun and the laughter we have as humans in this room.
It gives me no, am I AI?
And I don't even know I'm AI.
That's why you're so
cold and withdrawn.
My programming hasn't yet let me
replicate.
Well, welcome to the future, guys.
Awesome fun. Awesome fun.
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
This is good news. This is good news.
The price of houseplants
could drop
as the Environmental Protection Authority
has approved 12 new species for importation.
Okay.
So these are plants that previously they've deemed
too dangerous to be in New Zealand for whatever reason.
Whatever reason?
I don't know why they did them.
Because I've followed so many YouTube American plant channels
and people, they get the coolest indoor plants
and heaps of them we've never been able to have.
They're from Central and South America,
Southeast Asia and China.
Okay.
All like really well, like sought after.
I bet.
Fletch, you must be looking forward
to letting these die in your lounge.
You must just be absolutely fizzing.
I've got so many many empty pots at my house
and I'm like, I must go plant shopping.
No, some of yours are doing quite well. Yeah, but the
only ones left are the ones that I can't kill.
Yeah, like a monstera. You can't
kill a monstera.
Although I did stand on one of the leaves
yesterday and broke off one of it.
What a monster.
You can hurt them.
So this means
More exotic houseplants
Legally accepted in New Zealand
Some of them have been here
For a little bit
But they've kind of
Completed the list
By adding a few more
Like I own a couple of these
I've just opened them all up
You own a couple
Of now legal houseplants
That were illegal
Yeah
So how did you get them?
There's just a bit of an underground.
There's an underground.
Wow.
So one of them's like, I've got versions of an alocasia.
Lots of people would.
But a green velvet one.
It's kind of like those big pointy.
I don't know what that means.
Pointy.
Plant lovers will be loving this.
I got the list of these plants and I just searched the first word.
Yeah.
Because that's the sort of like family they come from, right?
Yeah.
So then it kind of gave me an overview of what you can expect from these new ones.
Yeah.
Allocations, big waxy green leaves.
Yeah, they always call them like elephant ears.
Oh, I like those.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
And then they've got the anthurium, but there are different varieties of them that are now being allowed in.
Right.
So that's like a velvety, veiny little guy.
And the Anthurium.
Also, how wild is it?
Like my mum can do it, and I remember my nana could do it amazingly.
She could just look at a flower and be like, oh, that's a blah, blah, blah.
A cat alacasia.
And she'd hit you with the scientific name of it.
They just knew their plants. Yeah, they did. That's one
of them. Isn't that a...
Oh, yeah, a little red guy. That's an anthurium.
Well, I think... Oh, they look like they'd be
poisonous to cats. Yeah. Yeah, they've got the
doodle in the middle. The doodle,
yeah, because peace lilies are
really toxic to cats. They'll kill
a cat. Yeah, they are. I've got a couple of them.
The doodle in the middle.
Yeah, yeah, you've got to pull out the doodle in the middle.
Anthurium, toxic to cats.
Let me just give you a quick check.
Chewing or biting into the plant will release the crystals
causing tissue penetration and issues of irritation in the mouth
and the intestinal tract.
Yeah, that'll get your cat.
So don't let them chew on the doodle in the middle.
Yeah.
Well, I reckon the one that most Kiwis will be excited about,
if you're a plant lover and you follow plant people online,
the Pilea peperomiaeodes, peperomiaes,
which is the Chinese money plant,
and it's little bubbly discs like this.
That's cute.
Yeah, I've had one for a while. And they make little bubbly discs like this. That's cute. I've had one for a while.
And they make little babies.
You are a bioterrorist.
And then you can cut out the babies and then replant them
and they just grow into these cool fountains.
Right.
And they're like the number.
You've got to have one if you're a plant lover.
Right.
And so now you'll be able to buy them.
Now you'll be able to buy them.
So I'm somewhat of a plant lover. Right, and so now you'll be able to buy them. Now you'll be able to buy them. So I'm somewhat of a green finger.
Sade will be like,
this house plant is no longer in the house.
It's got stalky or whatever.
It's not cool anymore?
Well, no, it's not that it's not cool.
It just looks a bit stalky and ugly.
So I'll be like, I'll take that.
And I go into the garage and I'm like,
cut it and then plop it in a pot and do that.
And then it starts growing.
And she came into the garage the other day and she's like
how did you get that to grow?
I was like a little TLC.
Yeah, you've got to trim.
That's when they get leggy, eh?
You've got to cut it. It's like
your hair. If you want it to grow nice and long
you've got to keep cutting it.
And it hurts. It feels contradictory.
I'm talking to two bald guys.
I shave my head all the time. It's not growing back.
Are you sure you've been cutting it right down and cutting it right back?
Yeah, yeah, right down, right down, right down.
Right down.
I don't know why that theory's not working for you guys.
Play ZM's Fletch Vornanalee.
Play ZM.
Stop it.
She likes it, but not everybody does.
Now, wolf whistling may become illegal.
In the UK?
In the UK.
Correct.
Men who wolf whistle or make sexual remarks to women
will face prosecution for street harassment.
Even if they believe what they're doing
is a compliment to the woman oh my god oh my god oh my god or they say i was just joking this is
a proposed new street harassment law yeah because who was the other day was saying they got wolf
whistled or someone some building site like and i thought that had stopped like i thought
i'm not gonna lie for me it stopped for a few years.
I haven't walked past a construction site or a building site.
And you do every day.
You try.
Yeah, and I can only assume it's because the culture is changing,
not because I'm getting older and, you know, softer and less worried
about what I look like.
Yeah.
But, I mean, it's such a thing
for sure. Especially like
I hate to bring the mood down, but like
since I was young, like young
young, young
you'd get calls out of cars
and all sorts.
Guys would drive past and
whistle at you. I'm talking like
12, 13 years old.
Because I was very tall, right?
And so, yeah, I don't know.
And then you're all through your teenage years.
Lots of it.
Do you think that it has changed though?
I mean, it's obviously still there. I'm not saying it's not happening.
I think it's definitely better than like the early 2000s.
For sure.
Yeah.
Because like I would go maybe back then you just didn't know.
You did.
You thought you were giving them a bloody compliment, you know?
Yeah.
Whereas now I think not everyone would be on board on a building site or whatever.
They'd be like, don't do that.
Don't do that, yeah.
But that's the other thing.
You might think it is a compliment, but then the woman who may be by herself
turns around and looks and sees six grown men.
Yeah.
Now I'm scared.
Like basically like hyenas looking at an antelope being like.
My thing was always like, what do you want from this engagement?
If you want to give me a compliment, that's one thing.
But if you're like, I used to go where people would like drive past
and like honk their horn at you or something when you're walking down the street.
You'd be like, well, if you want to sleep with me,
you're going to have to slow down a bit.
You're going to have to have an initiated conversation with me.
Rather than just sort of like yelling nice whatevers out the window.
I'm open to the idea of it if you were a nice person.
So instead of,
baby,
they,
mrm, mrm.
Hello?
Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I've got keys in my fingers.
I'm ready to attack.
Okay, so they don't pull up
along Soju,
they pull up up the road
and then get out of their car
and block the footpath.
Yeah, yeah.
I just want to have a quick chat.
I just want to have a quick chat
because I'm not the sort of guy
to wolf whistle
and turn out of a car. I just want to have a quick check. I just want to have a quick check because I'm not the sort of guy to wolf whistle and turn out of a car.
I just want to have a quick check.
None of that.
So if this becomes a law in the UK, what would the penalty be?
I don't know.
Ten years imprisonment.
Measured?
I guess just like other misdemeanors.
What, like a fine or like community service or something?
Yeah.
Can you do it if you know the person?
Because I love doing it if I see a friend out in the wild
and I'll give them a little wolf whistle
and they'll be like, what the hell?
Yeah.
I've never been able to wolf whistle.
Like if I drive past someone and I wanted to whistle,
I'd be like...
And it would just mix with the wind.
Yeah, they wouldn't hear.
Are you all right, sir?
Are you having difficulty breathing?
Yeah. Someone said it's been illegal in the Philippines
for ages.
To wolf whistle.
Yeah.
To catcall.
That'd be punishable by death, wouldn't it?
In the Philippines.
They'd muck around in the Philippines.
Yeah.
You'll try and find...
What's the punishment?
It'll be severe.
I'm just Googling.
I'm just Googling. I'm just Googling.
Reclaim our streets.
Punishments range from a fine
and jail sentences from six days to six months.
I thought it might be like cut off your lips.
You know how if you get caught stealing,
they'll cut off your fingers?
So this was a law against public sexual harassment.
This was the same president, you know,
who'd just kill people and blow up fishing boats.
Yeah, the truck boats.
What was his name?
Duterte.
Rodrigo Duterte.
Yeah, so those court could face up to six months in jail
and a fine of up to about $15,000 New Zealand dollars, actually,
for doing that.
Wow.
And yet this was in April of 2020 that came into force.
So it's been around a few years.
Because, you know, have you seen those Instagram reels
of, like, people just yelling really lovely compliments
out the window to people?
Oh, where they pull up at a traffic light and they say something like,
oh, damn, what a beautiful eyes or something.
Or like, you're really rocking that outfit.
Would you find that creepy though?
I don't know, but the people on those videos like love it.
They're like so tickled.
Yeah, it's polite catcalling.
You're really rocking that outfit as a compliment.
But damn your eyes. That's a little bit creepy. Damn, you're really rocking that outfit as a compliment. But damn your eyes.
That's a little bit creepy.
Damn, you're really filling out those trousers.
Now that's not, you've gone a bit
far there. I would like to remind you of
6
14 approximately this morning when you
said the exact same thing about a New Zealand member
of the New Zealand police force. He filled out those
trousers.
But I didn't yell at him.
I just followed him with my camera.
You just creepily said it on the radio the next day.
If you were in the Philippines, you'd be in jail for six months
for what you said about that hot cock.
I apologise.
And again, I did thank him for his service.
And I wasn't the only one oogling.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Some Aussie parents threw their young child a birthday party
and they wanted to throw it in the theme of his favourite place in the world, Bunnings.
So it was complete with little aprons and red t-shirts for everyone.
Oh, wow.
No money was, you know, spared.
How did they get those?
Did they make them themselves?
I think so.
Make your own Bunnings uniform.
Yep.
They had Bunnings warehouse tablecloths.
Obviously, they had a sausage sizzle as part of it all.
They had signs saying Remy's Warehouse,
but they're made in the style of Bunnings with little,
like where you'd put your prices and that kind of stuff.
Yeah, yeah. That's so cool.
They had a Bunnings cake that is so amazing.
Oh, my God, the saucy sizzle's really, really cute.
Balloons the same colours.
Yeah, and then their little tasks they did were kind of Bunnings stuff,
so they, like, potted some plants and built a little thing,
and then all the dads had the Bunnings,
the famous Bunnings wide brim straw hats on.
You're very quiet.
Vaughn's a Mitre 10 guy.
He doesn't like that you're talking about this
because he's on Mitre 10 money.
I'm on big orange, you know.
Well, you could throw a Mitre 10 party.
You could easily throw a Mitre 10 party.
You could just get that giant man.
You know, the big Mitre 10 guy.
They don't use him anymore. Yeah, I know. So you don't want to do a kids party. You get Stan in there birthday party. You could just get that giant man. You know, the big kind of tinkering guy. They don't use him anymore.
Yeah, I know, so you don't want to do a kids party. You get Stan
in there. Oh, yes, Stan. Show the kids how to build a
deck. Maybe that'd actually be bloody handy.
Yeah. Or a retaining wall.
My God, they even got a Bunnings-themed
bouncy castle.
They went all out for this kid
on the theme. I feel
like when, like, I don't know, I feel like
there was never a
theme for our birthday parties growing up it was more just you were just bloody lucky to have a
birthday party yeah basically yeah but it wasn't a theme i though i think that i only started having
themes in the maybe late 90s and we used to do fairy themed and you go to the fairy dell
the fairy dell was a big thing in the in the 90s early 2000s the fairy dell so you go to the fairy dell the fairy dell was a big thing in the 90s or 2000s. The fairy dell?
So you go to the fairy dell and you go
in the back of like some crystal shop. I'm not
going in the back of a crystal shop ever again.
I've spent too much time there. Not after
last time. Not after you
ended up in that mystical land. Yeah.
And your chakra was all out of line.
Whacked. Never got realigned
did they? And then yeah
you'd all dress up as fairies
and have little wings on and have wands and stuff.
But that's a theme.
But people theme hard these days.
Oh, yeah.
They go so hard on the theme.
So I thought maybe we could take some calls and find out,
A, if you, like, what was your childhood birthday party theme?
Oh, okay.
Maybe you had something a little off-kilter like this.
Like a bunnings party.
A kid with a trade shop themed birthday.
That's the thing when you're a kid, you like some weird stuff, eh?
Yeah, you just get into something real hard.
Yeah, and the fads, yeah, you just roll on every birthday.
Yeah.
My nephew, he got into escalators, like in such a big way.
Escalators?
Yeah, and all he would do is watch videos of escalators.
Oh, there'd be some awful escalator.
Wait, how are you saying escalator?
Is it escalator? Escalators.
Escalator. No, you're saying escalators.
Yeah, you're putting a U in there.
It's escalator. It's escalator.
Say it again? Escalators.
E-S-C-A-L-A-T-O-R.
I was spelling it
E-S-C-U-L-A-T-O-R. I was spelling it E-S-C-U-L-A-T-O-R.
This is why you only lasted two episodes of Guy Montgomery's Spelling Bee.
I really wanted to win the whole season.
Escalators.
He got into escalators anyway.
Wait, was there an escalator birthday cake?
Yeah, like...
Well done, Mum.
Yeah.
How do you make an escalator birthday cake?
It's just stairs. It's just stairs with stripes. Yeah, yeah do you make an escalated birthday cake? It's just stairs.
It's just stairs.
It's stairs with stripes.
Yeah, yeah.
It'd be a piece of cake.
Licorice.
You'd use licorice.
Licorice.
It was licorice.
Licorice and grey buttercream icing.
Anyway, maybe you had a really heavily themed birthday party as a kid,
or perhaps if you're a parent and you've thrown maybe a sort of strange themed party for your child.
What about, are we accepting adult themed birthday parties for adults that haven't grown
up?
If they're really fun.
If they're funny.
They've got to be fun.
They've got to be funny or different.
Yeah, don't say the theme was, you know, Playboy bunnies.
Yeah.
Because you just want, or sexy mice.
Yeah.
You know, like we get it.
Sexy mice?
Yeah.
You know, if someone's at a sexy mouse party, I'd like to hear it.
I'd like to delve into that brain to see why.
All right.
You can call us.
0800 DALS at M is the number.
9696 to text.
What was the theme?
We're wanting to know what your childhood birthday party theme was.
Because there was a lucky kid in Aussie whose parents threw him an amazing Bunnings party.
Man, they must have spent some cash.
It looked amazing.
Yeah, it was like around $1,000.
This kid's young.
He just loves Bunnings.
He loves the Bunnings.
But you do, as a kid, you love some weird stuff.
Like you're saying, like an escalator-themed birthday party.
Escalators, yeah.
Escalator.
Yeah.
Georgia, what was the birthday theme?
Well, I wasn't really a kid when it happened.
It was for my birthday
last year. We decided to throw
a Shrek themed birthday party.
Shrek?
How old were you turning?
23.
Okay. Do you love Shrek?
Love Shrek. I've always loved Shrek.
You love Shrek. I thought love was only true
in fairy tales.
Meant for someone else.
Good.
Yeah, good from you.
Good from you.
Who did you dress up as?
Like, how hard did you go on the theming?
Very hard.
There was a spreadsheet and everything so that we didn't have any double up.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
My partner and I went as Shrek and Fiona.
Okay.
Ogre Fiona or human Fiona?
Well, I kind of copped out because I did a test run the night before
with the green paint and I hated it.
So I ended up going as pretty Fiona, but my partner,
he went through with it.
He was green all over Shrek with the bald cap.
I made him his costume from scratch.
Oh, my God.
I'd love to see it. Wow.
Are you guys getting married one day? Do you reckon you'll marry
a Shrek?
Possibly not.
Birthday funny. Marriage
weirdos. Regretful
weirdos. Georgia, thank you.

I love it. We're getting some good

Yeah.
Oh, we love gastro tearing through a kid's party.
Sandy, this was a grandson's birthday theme.
What was it?
John Deere tractors.
He's obsessed with John Deere tractors.
Oh, so is Vaughn.
Vaughn said he wasn't invited, to be honest.
Yeah, I've got to put him around.
I love it.
He's after a mini tractor too.
I'm going to apologise.
How hard did you go on the theme?
Did you have a tractor there?
No.
Well, we had lots of
little tractors to play with.
We had a John Deere cake
with a tractor on it
with like little mini hay bales.
Aww.
Oh my God,
were the mini hay bales
like Lamingtons?
No.
That would have been young.
That would have been
really,
now that's a great idea.
Solid idea there.
You could call it that. You could make Lamingtons and make them yellow and call them hay bales. Yes. No. That would have been yellow. That would be really... Now, that's a great idea. That's a solid idea. Solid idea there. Next time...
You could call it that.
You could make Lamingtons and make them yellow
and call them hay bales.
Yes.
Oh, you could.
With a bit of...
He's obsessed with them so badly.
We took him to a John Deere collection once,
with, like, big tractors and machinery,
and he was shaking with excitement.
Oh, that is so sweet.
You have a passion.
You know what?
I loved tractors when I was a kid,
and then you go off the tractors
because it all becomes about girls.
He calls them johnnies.
Johnnies.
And then once you're off the girls, you're back on the tractors.
You're back onto the tractors, yeah.
Sandy, thank you.
Clodagh, what was the birthday theme?
It was a sleepover theme.
Okay.
So is this a sleepover party?
Yeah, no, kind of. So I was really wanting a sleepover when I was eight So was this a sleepover party? Yeah, no, kind of.
So I was really wanting a sleepover when I was eight years old,
like a whole bunch of friends.
So my mum was like, all right.
So everyone rocked up in their pajamas.
We watched a movie in like sleeping bags,
painted each other's nails, did each other's makeovers and all that.
What you'd do at a, you know, like a typical sleepover.
But everyone went home at four o'clock.
Great.
Mum's nailed it.
Wait, that's not a sleepover.
No, but it was a theme.
The theme is you're sleeping over
but the reality is you're going home.
But then you don't have to deal with the fact
that they're still going to sleep at 11
and they wake up at 6 and they're real ratty
and then they're fighting
and it all goes bad.
That's great thinking.
Isn't it?
Thanks for your calls and messages.
And to finish.
For my 7th birthday I had a punk party.
Mohawks, rips, pants, pins, food-colored hair.
Not sure why I did it, but I did it.
Cool.
No regrets.
I like that.
For my 30th last year, my partner organized a funeral-themed party.
R.I.P. my youth.
The cake was a gravestone.
Oh, beautiful.
It never had to come like it was a funeral.
That's pretty funny.
I had a Fairfactor-themed party when I was 10.
Had to eat melted chocolate with bits of corn in it out of a nappy.
One of my mates couldn't do it.
He couldn't get his head around it.
He wouldn't have won Fairfactor.
That's a good idea.
That'd be fun.
Oh, now this is good.
Someone said,
When the parents were organising the Bunnings Christmas party for the kid,
did they go and check if Mitre 10 had kids' parties for the same price?
If not, they would have beaten him for 15% or more.
Yeah, that's good from them.
Yeah, really good.
My son was always stubbing his toes, so we made him one of his birthday cakes.
It was a big toe cake, and it was a feet-themed birthday party.
Eww.
Some old dudes would be into that.
Yuck. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Some old dudes would be into that.

You don't want to ruin their holiday.
We're about to send these guys overseas.

They're probably in the good with shanties, I reckon.
We asked you where you would want

Anywhere. If I give some
population stats, is that going to give it away?
How good are you guys with city
populations and stats?
Not good at all. Alright, hit us with some

David's such a hard guy to read.
He looked scared.
He's a tradie.
He looked excited.
And he looked like, what the hell's all this shit in this suitcase?
It was such a confusing read.
Stacey was just like super excited the minute the suitcase went open.
You guys are off to Tokyo.
Wow.
This is insane.
That'd probably be our first pick, but didn't want to say that.
Oh, really?
I've been to Tokyo before and it is, yeah, one of my favourite places in the world.
It's like unbelievable because every area of Tokyo is like different.
Wow.
You're about to be slapped in the face with culture,
I'll tell you that.
Oh, the food!
We're talking ramen, baby.
We're talking ramen.
We're talking katsu.
We're talking sashimi.

End of the week.
Pikachu.
Pikachu.
My man.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
We are, if you've missed it,
we are renovating our 145-year-old cottage.
And yesterday we thought we're going to tear into the baby room,
which is the small room at the front of the house that we've been sleeping in
because there's no other bedrooms available.
Are you painting it blue or pink when you renovate?
It just depends if it's a boy or a girl.
Because girls like pink and boys like blue.
Yeah.
They have to.
They have to.
No, we're actually painting it a rust.
Right.
It's a rust colour from, because you're not rust.
It's a rust colour from Rosene called Moroccan Spice.
Oh.
We're doing a slight lime wash on it too,
so it's got texture, it'll look like velvet.
It's going to be so good.
Right.
And that'll probably be the taxidermy room
rather than the baby room.
There's so many birds in it already.
Like, that's the only thing we didn't want to pack away
in storage is our taxidermy.
So the windowsill is just, like, covered in birds. I still think it's creepy you have so our taxidermy. So the windowsill is just like covered in birds.
I still think it's creepy you have so much taxidermied stuff.
We got so much.
This is very brown.
Have you just Googled?
Yeah, in real life it's a bit more orange.
And then when you do the wash, it'll have little pops of dark and bright and stuff.
A lime wash.
A lime wash.
So you paint it and then afterwards you do a...
And then you wash it with like a watery lime wash
and it makes it like textured kind of like.
Okay, that's.
What are you on the block or something?
No, I'm on resume money, baby.
Anyway, so we've started yesterday.
Well, I got home yesterday ready to write some sort of music
and be creative and whatnot.
But Aaron had just torn into this room.
And so I was like, I'll lend a hand.
And with this old house, you rip off the jib
and there's all this sarking. It's called sarking.
And it's like the old, massive
cody strips of wood
that were the original
walls of the house and it's all behind it.
That were once our grand native forests.
You wouldn't dare do it now.
No, no.
You wouldn't dare do it now.
Wouldn't you?
You wouldn't. Where it now Wouldn't you? Wouldn't you?
You wouldn't
No, you wouldn't
Well, you couldn't
Where would you find it?
Up north
Don't do that
Anyway, so we were doing that
And you've got to pull all the nails out
So you can rejib it and whatnot
And there's quite big gaps in between the sarking
And Aaron just
I could just hear Aaron
I popped out for a second
I could hear him say
What the hell is that? And Aaron just, I could just hear Aaron, I popped out for a second, I could hear him say, what the hell
is that? And I was like,
oh God, because we've found a lot of rat's nests
and rat's corpses and stuff.
Oh no, that is a mummified rat.
Dude, they're so like, ah!
They're never just like
lying down dead.
I have died. They're always like,
ah! I went down
screaming. You would be too if you were trying to get out of a wall.
Out of a wall?
I know you're stuck.
You're going to die there.
It wasn't a dead skeleton.
It was a dead body.
No.
So that would halt your renovation project.
No.
You would have to put that under the asbestos, in the skip, and never tell anybody.
Look, have we found a few bones under our deck?
Maybe we have.
Maybe we have.
Are they quite large?
Surely it's a dog.
Anyway, he said, what the hell is that?
And we could see this like grey kind of fluff and I was like, it looks like paper or something
like crepe paper.
So he was getting the vacuum and trying to suck it out and it was all sort of like sucking
out in this weird way.
And he's like, I'm going to have to remove the original sarking and get behind this wall
to see what it is.
And behind we saw this.
I'll just show you a photo, which is like this.
What the hell is?
That's exactly what we said.
What the hell is that?
It looks like some kind of alien, like, cocoon.
Exactly what it looked like.
And it was ginormous.
I'm talking, like, four basketball sizes of this white.
That's a weird sizing.
I know, I couldn't think of anything else.
What's this size?
What about a mini Swiss ball, a medium Swiss ball?
A medium Swiss ball.
But flat.
A deflated Swiss ball.
What about two pillows?
No, I'd say that's one pillow.
One pillow.
One decent sized pillow.
One decent sized pillow.
Okay.
Okay, four deflated basketballs. Again, that's one pillow. One pillow. One decent sized pillow. One decent sized pillow. Okay. Okay, four deflated
basketballs. That's, again,
that's weird. Yeah.
And it was like dusty and like flaky
and Aaron was like, I don't know what this is.
And we thought for a second maybe it was some old
kind of insulation.
So we got our builder out the back, we're like, can you please look
at this? Well, you know, ironically, it would be wonderful
insulation. Probably.
You could get it in all of your walls everywhere.
But this could have been some sort of poisonous,
fibrous thing from back in the day.
No, it was a giant wasp's nest.
Giant.
I thought they looked like kind of comely or like.
No, no, wasps.
So this is the bottom bit.
Oh.
Because Hayley sent me a photo and I was like, paper wasps.
What are paper wasps? Of type of wasps. What's at the bottom of that? Paper wasps. Hayley sent me a photo and I was like, paper wasps. What are paper wasps?
What a type of wasp.
I'm going to Google paper wasps.
Which are the ones that I'm allowed to stomp on?
All of them.
Stomp on all of them.
If it's a long, skinny.
No, but I thought, what are the ones we need for humans?
Bees.
No, are they cute bumblebees?
No, bumblebees.
Don't touch the bees.
Don't stomp on a bee because they're cute.
You can tell.
You look them in the eyes and the wasps are like,
nah, what are you looking at?
And then you stomp them.
Whereas a bee's like, hello.
Hello, I'm just out here trying to make the world better.
Could you point me to the nearest flower, please?
I'm hungry.
Oh, yeah.
So I've just paper wasp.
I'd stomp on one of these.
Yeah, stomp there.
But the thing is, so we got gloves on and tore it out,
vacuumed it all out, and then Aaron shone a torch.
Shone?
Shone a torch.
Shined a torch.
He shone a rhymes.
He shone a rhymes.
He shone a rhymes.
He put a torch up upwards underneath the next bit.
It continued.
So this is another pillow or another baseball?
Another pillow.
So then we had to take the next panel off.
Eight deflated basketball size.
Or two standard pillows.
So then we had to take the next one off and empty that out.
It went all the way from like halfway in the wall to the roof.
And were they home?
No.
No, Aaron, it already killed them from the outside.
Wait, so they had been functional?
Earlier in our ownership of this house,
we had this massive wasp nest on the front of the house,
which is the external wall of this room.
Yeah.
And Aaron was like spraying and spraying.
He's like, oh my God, where are these coming from?
And it's all, if you look in the little corrugated plastic
over our porch, it's just like filled with wasp corpses
and this is where
they've come from
this is why it took so long
and this is why it was dead
so the external part
you sprayed and knocked off
yeah like again
and again and again
it was sprayed
under the roof
did you not hear
your wall buzzing
yeah
oh no
and then we got
to the top of it
and it had the nesty
kind of hivey looking
oh yeah yeah
oh is that where the honey is?
I saw what he said.
I was like, is it bees?
He was like, no, no, wasps were too.
Yuck.
All the functionality of a hive with none of the good stuff.
Yeah.
And no honey puffs.
No honey puffs.
Zero honey puffs.
We'll get rid of that.
Anyway, what an opportunity.
Imagine if we hadn't taken this jib off and we'd have just painted it
and this, like, hive was in there.
And then I saw your story.
Did you write a message on your wall?
Yeah, we were leaving little treats around the house.
I put a marching medal.
We hammered in a marching medal.
I wonder what that medal was.
I saw somebody be,
could you imagine in 30 years
when someone re-renos your house and...
They'd be like, what a stupid sport.
That died 30 years ago, they'll say.
They'd be like, is that a sport?
Yeah, and then we wrote a note on one of the walls,
and it said, hello, it's 2023, and we own this lovely home.
Please take care of it because we put a lot of love into it.
She was built in 1878.
She's one of the local original houses here.
If you knock her down for apartments or townhouses,
you shall forever be cursed.
Nice.
So I've cursed them.
If they dare.
You put a precautionary curse on it.
Yeah, I did indeed
What do you call it when you buy a house
And there's an existing rule
A covenant
You've put a covenant curse on it
Yeah I have
A witch's covenant
Those teenage witch days are coming back
They really are
I have the ability to curse
I am indeed a witch
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley
Play ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Yeah. I want to say a big thank you to Damesh for sending me this fact.
Cheers, Damesh.
This was sent in.
This was a fact.
You know John Green that wrote Fault in Our Stars?
Yes.
And Paper Towns.
And he's got a podcast called The Anthrocipine.
The Anthrocipine.
I don't think the podcast is called The Anthrocipine.
What do you call the study of humanity?
Anthropology. Yeah, but it's got the sapine on the anthro-sipine. What do you call the study of humanity? Anthropology.
Yeah, but it's got the sipine on the end.
Anthro-sipine.
Anthro-sipine.
Anthrax.
He reviews, he just does these beautiful little spoken words
about like different subjects.
I'm going to tell him he hasn't sold me on this.
Oh, yeah, the anthro-sipine.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anthro-sipine.
Anthro-sipine.
Anthro-sipine.
There's been some real
Word mangling today on the show
We've had a couple of wines
Ranthropopine
It's
John Green put this up on his Instagram
Account and today's fact of the day
Is if it wasn't for tuberculosis
We may have never got the cowboy hat
Sorry
I thought it was a sun thing TB awareness day is if it wasn't for tuberculosis, we may have never got the cowboy hat. Sorry?
I thought it was a sun thing.
TB Awareness Day.
Do you know tuberculosis still kills like one and a half million people a year?
My great-grandmother died of tuberculosis.
Seriously?
Oh, do you want to talk about it now?
Are you ready?
Well, I never knew her.
She was my name. Your great-grandmother?
Yeah.
Well, it's hard to be sad.
She's a great-grandmother.
Oh, I never met her. And she died when my grandmother was like 14. Your great grandmother. Yeah. Well, it's hard to be sad. She's a great grandmother. Oh, I never met her. And she died
when my grandmother was
like 14. Oh, yeah, well.
But that must have been a bit sad for her.
And apparently she totally was in that time
where they had a cure for TB, except she just
couldn't be bothered going to the hospital.
You know, like if you were coughing up
blood, but it was like a three hour horse
ride or a cart, you had to go on a cart, you'd be like
Are you dying?
I'll sit this out.
I reckon I'll... Just a bit of blood?
I feel alright. Get us a gin, will you, love?
Tuberculosis. Is that what
Kate Winslet's character from
Heavenly Creatures had?
Yes.
Consumption, they called it, and you cough up blood.
Can possums give that to you? Yes.
Possums could give it to cattle.
Oh, okay.
And it was very, very bad for cattle
because cattle would go
and give it to other cattle
and then that all happened.
Cows can cough.
Cows can cough.
I've never seen a cow cough.
Excuse me.
No, they don't.
Well, they chew on their cud
almost constantly.
What's a cud?
And so they eat the grass
and then they belch a little bit up
and then they chew on it and then they swallow it again.
They've got a full stomach.
That is disgusting.
They are feral.
And they do massive, what about cow burps?
I'm so glad we mince them.
Yes, yum, mince.
They got what they deserved.
They deserve for being so dirty.
Yeah, you see a cow, it's always chewing.
Yeah.
What did you think it was chewing?
Gum?
I've been to farms and walked past cows that never hurt them
cough.
They go, they go.
They just do big breath outs.
And they're like choking on that.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'll try to get a video of my cows going.
Okay.
Are you sure it's not because they're smoking?
Like an old man.
They're not smoking.
Okay.
Like on the Durres.
They're chewing grass.
But who used to round up cows?
Cowboys.
Bringing it back.
Yeah.
See? So a man called John Stetson The Stetson hat
Bingo!
Yeah
He was in New York and he got consumption
Which is another name for tuberculosis
Okay
The doctor said, sir, the only chance you have
Is to move somewhere with dry, warm air
As was Stunning The best treatment at the time for tuberculosis you have is to move somewhere with dry, warm air,
as was the best treatment at the time for tuberculosis.
So he moved to Oklahoma, and when he got there,
he noticed that cowboys and Western settlers were wearing about four types of hats.
One, coonskin caps.
So that is a skinned raccoon.
You remember David Crockett would wear the cap when it hadned raccoon. You remember David Crocker
would wear the cap when it had the raccoon's tail
on it. One. But those
were riddled with fleas and often smelled
like they hadn't been tanned properly.
No flexi-fit camps back in the
day in Rebel sports. No. Sea
captain's hats were probably the closest
thing because the sea captains had the
peak on their hat. Yes.
Straw hats which kind of had a brim on them Closest theme because, you know, the sea captains had the peak on their hat. Yes. Ah, those are the straw hats.
Yep.
Which kind of had a brim on them, but straw hats wouldn't last too long.
More for boomers, though, those ones.
Yeah.
And wool hats.
Yep.
And he's like, people would be smoking hot.
Yeah.
So anyway, John Stetson gets there and he's like, why isn't there one hat that kind of
does it all?
You've got all the hats wrong.
He's like, he said to someone, let me make you a hat.
And he made a guy what
is and what was the first cowboy
hat. A wide brimmed felt hat, so
it was waterproof, it was warm when it
needed to be. It had a brim to keep the sun
off the eyes and also the
neck. And the ears were protected.
And room for corks in Australia too.
Room for corks. So...
You can also drink out of cowboy hats, can't you?
You can.
You could feed your hatties.
Yeah, you do hatties.
You could dip it in a river and hold it
and your horse could drink out of it
because it was cold water.
It was waterproof and felt.
And then you'd shake it out, put it back on
and it would keep you cool.
Nice and cool for the winter.
And away you go.
So he made one and immediately everyone was like,
oh, we've got to have one of those stets in here.
That's fashion. So he set up another, even was like, oh, we've got to have one of those stets in here. Disfashion.
So he set up another, even though he kind of moved
there to take it easy, he set up another
hat making company and
just sold millions
of hats. Was he rich?
He became very
wealthy, but he gave away a lot of his
money. He knew the
importance of
healthcare, so for the factories that he had making the hats, he had hospitals for his money. He knew the importance of healthcare, so for the factories that he had making
the hats, he had hospitals for his
workers. Wow, how America's
changed. Yeah.
They looked after their people.
He founded the first law school,
the Stetson University College of Law in
Florida. He did a hell of a lot of good things.
Did he survive tuberculosis?
He did survive tuberculosis
and when he died in 1904, his company was massive
and was churning out about 3.3 million hats a year.
Wow.
And they say he never would have moved there if he hadn't caught tuberculosis.
So tuberculosis is a good thing.
Well, I'm not saying it's a good thing,
but I'm just saying there's causation and correlation between TB and the hats.
But imagine if you had a sore throat, you went to your doctor, and they're like, sorry, I've got to move to, I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I'm just saying there's causation and correlation between TV and the hats. But imagine if you had a sore throat, you went to your doctor,
and they're like, sorry, you've got to move to, I don't know,
the desert, the central plateau.
You've got to go to Las Vegas.
Go to Waiouru.
Yeah.
Or you've got to move to Alice Springs for the driest, cleanest air.
See, I could do Alice Springs, Eric.
No, you couldn't.
Pub, not many people.
Yes, you could. Lots of open land for tinkering. Yeah. I could do Alice Springs, Eric. No, you couldn't. Pub, not many people. Yes, you could.
Lots of open land for tinkering.
Yeah.
I could do Alice Springs.
So today's fact of the day is if it wasn't for tuberculosis,
we might never have got the cowboy hat.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. I don't think you would have missed this
Harry Styles
has been seen
pashing
Emily Ratajkowski
Now for a history of
Harry Styles and kissing we've got to
Carl Wayne at the producer's desk
Carl Wayne
As a huge Harry Styles fan
Get a mic
Let's get the microphone working
Get the mic on ya
There we go
Harry Styles has a history of kissing
Poorly it turns out.
Yeah, look, any evidence that we've seen, video, photo, on the internet,
hasn't been very impressive.
Is it because I would like to float a theorem here?
Okay.
Please do.
Is it because he became famous and a bit of a heartthrob at such an early age
that no one ever had the guts to tell him he was doing it wrong?
Yeah, and he didn't get to go around kissing a bunch of girls
without complication.
And one says, good, but tongue heavy.
The other one's like, close your mouth a little bit.
I'm just talking from my own experience.
Tongue heavy is always the first thing, right?
Because you see in a film, you're like, okay, they're using tongue.
Yeah.
So I'm going to go in hot with the tongue.
Shut your mouth a little bit.
A little less dribble.
Don't bite that.
And you slowly pick up the tips along your way.
But if you're kissing Harry Styles, you think maybe I'm doing it wrong.
I mean, he famously wasn't exactly shying away from kissing people
when he was at the absolute peak and isn't now either.
But in the photo of him kissing Emily Ratajkowski next to a car,
he looks like he's hungry.
Like, so he didn't get a snack that afternoon.
Yeah, it's cringe.
I'll say it.
And he's held, she's gone like that to put her hand towards his face
and he's sort of grabbed it.
So he's sort of clutching her hand like that.
Like he's trying to extract something from her lips.
That or he's regurgitating food for her to eat, baby bird style.
Yes.
And times are tough, man.
I love seeing insane passion.
When it's just like...
It's all day.
But it's so strange.
Two people who are absolutely pinging.
And they're just like, I can't get enough of you.
It's making Hayley sick.
It's so hungry and wet.
Yeah.
It's a lot.
Whereas when you're in a long-term relationship,
your kisses get tighter and tighter and tighter.
That's it.
And then you just get a little kick.
Love you.
Yeah, look, it wasn't fun for me to watch.
Yeah.
As a fan, yeah.
He is so hot.
And she is so hot
objectively.
Are we saying
that she was
also bad?
No,
because she's like
but she's getting
eaten by him.
Right.
Hard to tell.
Because then she sort of
the next photo
is her grabbing his face.
I think she's trying
to guide him like
oh my gosh.
This way a little bit.
This way.
Or she might have been
like shutting his mouth
a little bit.
Maybe he'd have had a couple of sherrys though.
We don't know.
He drank sherry, doesn't he?
A couple of lemonades.
Ain't nothing wrong with a sherry.
Beautiful.
I love a sherry.
A couple of vodka cruises.
Yeah.
A bit messy.
Never had him picked as a sherry guy.
No, why not?
But it got me thinking about this thing because the only reason we're bringing it up is because
he's so hot and so we just expect him to
be sexy hot.
But he's not. So I wanted
to know when a hot person
did a non-hot thing
in your life.
And you were like, wait a minute,
you're supposed to be hot. Yeah, maybe you took someone
home and you were like, oh my god,
I'm about to actually climb this mountain.
And turns out they're just like
fumbling around.
Or they live in like a
gross
house. Oh my god, yes,
you went home to like the hottest guy's house
and he had like grotty socks on the floor
and like bowls of old
bolognese. Holes in his knickers.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally.
Someone has said from when they saw the video,
it looked like Harry's eyes were wide open too.
Now, I keep my eyes open.
I like to know where I'm at.
Have you watched the video?
No.
Because it's pretty wild.
Like, it's weird.
Sometimes.
You don't expect a hot person to kiss like that.
Okay, I need to see.
You need to watch the video.
I've seen it still.
We need to watch it and get your reaction live on air as you watch this.
You're right.
You don't expect a hot person to do this.
I don't know.
We just have higher expectations of hot people.
Yeah, we do.
Absolutely.
Okay.
30-second video.
Okay.
Vaughan is now watching the video.
Oh, okay.
It's close.
It's not like it's ages away.
Are they under an umbrella?
Someone's trying to block it.
She's dancing.
Okay, they're kissing against the minivan.
That's not very hot. Yeah, it's not hot already.
It's against the minivan.
It's already hot, not hot.
She's grabbing the back of his head.
Oh, this is a full pash, dudes.
This is going.
This is still going.
Yeah.
Oh, I expected worse.
Really?
Yeah.
You must pash yuck.
They just look sloppy.
Yeah, it's really sloppy.
It looks really like drunkenly sloppy passion.
Yeah.
She's tearing through the dirts.
Good on her.
Good for her.
I'll have a bit of that, I'll have a bit of that, I'll have a bit of that.
I'd shit myself around like that if I was Emily Ratajkowski.
Anyway, so give us a call or give us a text if you have experienced this,
when a hot person just did a really non-hot thing.
Yeah.
It doesn't need to be like a hooking up thing.
It could just be a hot person that you saw doing something grotty.
Yeah, totally.
He's just like, no, that's not you.
Yeah.
What about something they said?
Are we accepting some of their thoughts on life?
0800-DARLS-NM is the number.
Give us a call.
You can text 9696.
When did a really hot person do a really non-hot thing?
Some amazing stories coming in.
The Harry Styles kiss.
Emily Radikowsky kiss has got us wanting to know
when a hot person did a really non-hot thing
because he's kissing like a bloody hungry mule.
He's so hot in every regard except the kissing.
You don't expect it.
It's so disappointing.
Yeah.
Because so many people would be like,
oh my God, I would give anything to kiss Harry Styles.
And then...
So when did a really hot person do a non-hot thing, Raquel?
When did a really hot person do a non-hot thing?
Good morning.
So it's actually my son's father
it was our second ever
sleepover, this is during lockdown
and you know like things are kind of like
fun at that stage
and then like
the next day, the next morning he was like
ah hey pull my finger and I was like
what?
yeah and I was like what do you mean and he was like pull it and I was like, ah, hey, pull my finger. And I was like, what? Classic. Yeah, and
I was like, what do you mean? And he was like,
pull it. And I was like, absolutely not. This is
giving me ick vibes. And then
yeah, he pulled his own finger
and just let one absolutely rip.
How old was he?
He was
40 at the time.
Oh, that's not's not I would probably laugh
Because that's such a retro joke
Yeah I laugh all my finger
Yeah but I was like
This is classic dad vibe
Obviously need to have a son with you going on
Wait so was the son
A result of that second sleepover
Or did you have another
I went back for more
He was really really hot
Still is.
I'll still give it to him.
But you're not with him.
Yeah.
You know, it was just one thing that I was like,
is this what 40-year-old men do?
It's a bit bloody sad, eh,
when you've got to pull your own finger.
I know.
I'm like, is this the dating pool I'm swimming in?
Like, come on.
As a 41-year-old man, I can tell you, Raquel,
I wouldn't trust that it would only be a fart
if you would have just pulled my finger.
I'd have to squeeze it.
Not at that age.
Not anymore.
If it was a follow-through,
it would have been like absolutely no more sleepovers.
Hey, Raquel, you're our caller of the week.
You won a $50 McCafe voucher.
Yeah, we love it.
Thanks to our mates at McCafe.
Serious?
Yeah, a bit of pull-my-finger humour there.
It doesn't go en masse.
I even forgot about pull-my-finger.
Raquel White there, a couple of texts.
There's so many stories coming in.
Oh, my God.
I think some of these have also got to be podcast only because...
Yes.
Yeah, you read a couple out in the break and...
Oh, my God.
People are mank, even the hot ones.
Yeah, so many manky hot people.
I took a super hot guy home from town.
Yep.
And found out two days later that he'd thrown up in the laundry sink.
I didn't find it.
My dad did when they got it back from their weekend away,
which was why I took him to our house.
Oh, no.
Had a chat.
He'd still probably keep going though, wouldn't you?
Absolutely.
How hot is he?
Yeah.
Yeah, man.
We'll have all had a chance to sing.
We'll just have a bit of fun.
We'll finish up with some messages we've received.
And we have to direct you after today, at some point,
go and listen to the podcast because we're going to put in some extra
little messages we've received in that are not appropriate for anyone.
Some hilarious misadventures in the bedroom.
Yes.
They can't be described right here.
So we want to know from you this morning when a hot person has done something not hot.
Let's go to Ocean.
Ocean, good morning.
Hello.
I love that name.
So do I.
Love the name.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Now, so you meet a hot person.
Now, what happens next?
So there's one day we were at the beach
And he's very fine
You know, shirt off, everything like that
It was so nice to watch
But then I saw him walking across the rocks in bare feet
And he did that kind of like, you know, awkward
Ouchy stance over the rocks And he was and he did that kind of like, you know, awkward ouchy stance
over the rocks. And he was like stumbling
and slipping. Immediately
ruined. And like putting his hands
down and like not saying anything.
His hands were like up in the air, like wings
out. Oh god, extra
balance. That is so lame.
Describe to us how you
would have liked him to walk across the rocks.
Just like stronger, you know?
Yeah, like it didn't hurt at all.
Just pretend.
Just pretend at least.
Like a hunter-gatherer.
Was this the first date?
Was this the first date?
Oh, this was just like a bunch of friends at the beach.
Right.
Yeah, right.
So you were like, I like that.
Shocker.
Yeah, shocker.
Dibs bags.
I even looked around the group and I was like,
is anyone else seeing this?
And everyone's like, you're so mean.
You're so mean.
How are you?
How do you walk across the rocks, Ocean?
And you're like, my name's Ocean.
I walk better than that.
I just float.
Yeah.
Yeah, you glide.
Ocean, thanks.
You called some messages in.
I went home with a hot guy to his house and he had a Canberra Raiders duvet.
Honestly, how old are you?
But was it clean?
Because that's the other thing we're hearing from lots of people who go home with hot guys
and their house is an absolute shambles.
It's a pigsty.
Or it's just a mattress on the floor.
Like there's not even a base.
There's not a bed.
Oh God, I've been there, done that a few times.
Would you sleep with the Canberra Raiders duvet guy if he was hot still?
I've done worse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I went home with a guy.
He was driving.
We parked outside his house, had a good smirch session.
And I said, should we take this inside?
And he said, no, let's do it here on the side of the road in a suburban neighbourhood.
To which I said, no.
And then I called an Uber home
but it was fine and so on the second date I said
I'm coming inside the house
and I went in and I see where he didn't want me to come in
the place was a mess, he had four dogs
that lived inside, big dogs
that had just torn the place to bits
and it just had never been cleaned
oh god
I saw my son's hip hop teacher in town
one night and went home with him.
Wait, there are teachers.
Hip-a-tooth-a, hip-a-tooth-a, hip-hip-hop.
You don't stop the beat to the beat.
Now, you are imagining a dancer's bod.
Hell, yeah.
We're imagining a dancer's bod.
Lean, muscular, flexible.
But, you know, knows rhythm as well.
It's not just a hot bod.
Probably walks across rocks quite well.
Probably.
He would.
Limble feet. Went home to his grandma's house.
Oh for God's sake.
He was also
not
well endowed.
Despite what I'd been led to believe
by the track pants he wore at the hip hop class.
I mean grandma would have
been deaf anyway so she wouldn't have heard anything.
Yeah, and they go to bed at like six,
so you're probably safe there.
You'd be right, yeah, yeah.
I think we covered about 14 positions in a minute,
and it was done,
and then I had a big bite mark on the middle of my back.
No!
Then I found out he had a girlfriend.
Okay, hot people.
This is hot people.
Hot people.
Okay, in the podcast.
How good is it taking them down a peg?
It is good, isn't it?
Feels good.
Feels good.

So, yeah, pause.
Put a pin in this for later.
See you later.
We're talking about when a hot person absolutely blew it for you.
Harry Styles, as you've just heard, apparently an awful kisser.
Yes.
So we want to know what gave people the ick.
And I bought a hottie home from the club.
He was the bouncer.
Oh, that's hot.
That is hot.
Got home and he was wearing what I could describe as grey,
white front underwear with skid marks on it.
He didn't buy them grey, did he?
No, they went grey.
They got grey.
Skids!
Super hot guy.
I went home to make out.
He just kissed me with all of his teeth.
All of his teeth is the only way I've ever been able to describe it.
All of his teeth.
A gnash of the teeth.
Yeah.
Someone said, took a hot person home.
I'd been with them for ages.
I went down on them and it was like sucking my thumb.
Now... I'd been with them for ages. I went down on them and it was like sucking my thumb. Now, is that because it's small?
It's little.
Yeah.
Right.
Did it have a nail?
Did it have a callus in?
Yeah.
Like a nail.
It was like sucking the thumb.
Was it glittery on the end?
Here's another one about oral pleasure.
Okay.
I went down on a guy for quite some time and I'll say did some of my best work.
Bravo.
When you know, you know.
When you know, and they should let you know.
I am killing this.
They should let you know.
Then I thought at the end of it, I've earned myself a little.
The ladies put their hands on the head.
100%.
Get in there, love.
And he said, oh, no, no, I don't do that.
What?
After he's just received it.
If you're not going to do it, don't receive it.
No.
You can say, I don't do foreplay.
And then probably you'd be kicked out the door
i don't do foreplay well there's other aspects of foreplay that there's just not oral foreplay
but uh yeah i think that's a fair thing to let someone know when they're about to head
downstairs that you're not gonna i'm not gonna reciprocate yeah yeah but could yeah it's kind
of like i don't like yeah it's like when someone gives you a 10 minute back massage and then it's
their turn and you just do like 30 seconds
Yeah like a couple of thumbs
A couple of thumbs
I went home with the biggest
A couple of little sucky thumbs
A couple of little sucky thumbs
I went home with the biggest babe at university
Everybody thought he was so hot
I got to take him home
He took his pants down
Excuse me, stop doing that with your thumbs I took his pants down. Excuse me. Stop doing that with your thumbs.
I took his pants down.
I was a meter away, and the smell of his penis made me gag so bad.
I immediately made up an excuse and bailed.
Wait, this was the hottest guy.
The hottest guy that everybody wanted.
And when I was up home with him, everyone was like, oh, my God.
You go, girl.
And he had a smelly dick.
And a stinky dick. And a stinky dick. R dinky that is so gross like if you know you've had a big sweaty night out go and dip it
in the sink or something he'd smell that right but then it's like when people have bo and they
can't smell it yeah can you not smell that can Can you not smell your cheese dick? Are you serious? Because I'm smelling
you so hard now. You're telling me
you just haven't noticed? Yeah, yuck.
Like, give it a... Give it a
rinse. That should be clean.
Yeah. That should be part of your
showering process. Head, shoulders,
knees and toes. Mankey penis.
Yeah.
My mate picked up
a... Sorry for that noise. Do not make that noise. I don't do that. My mate picked up a Sorry for that noise
Do not make that noise
I don't do that
My mate picked up a girl from a bar
And she said she lived close
So they started walking 15 minutes to her house
Chatting, having just a hot time
That's sort of like getting to know each other
The drunken walk
My mate needed to poo
And on this long walk home
He felt it starting to
Who needs to poo so late at night?
He's taking a shit in the middle of a nice evening out?
Well, no, maybe it's later than that.
Might have been a big dinner.
You know, one of those big dinners.
Long walk home, he started feeling it pushing out.
He finally makes it to her house and tells her he's just going to prep in the bathroom.
And when he turns the light on to check his undies,
he notices skid marks and a little nug.
Oh, for God's sake.
A little nug?
So he took them all off and. Oh, for God's sake. A little nug.
So he took them all up and launched them
over her neighbor's fence
and then went about the business.
Cleaned himself up
and went about the business.
A few days later,
he received a text from her saying,
did you throw skiddy undies
over the fence
into my neighbor's property?
They're livid about it
and never heard from her again.
Wow.
Now, as someone who shat themselves on a line scooter in Prague
due to camp labacter, my heart goes out to that man
because when it happens, it happens.
You can't help these things.
No, but you've just got to bundle them up,
clean yourself up, shove them in your pocket or something
and then just deal with that later.
I would have tried to flush them.
Absolutely not!
I mean, never put
anything in anybody else's toilet apart from
toilet paper. Even then, sometimes when you're at
somebody else's house and you use a bit too much and it fills up,
you're like...
Please God!
Those are the moments I believe in a God.
Because if I ever block a toilet and it's going water up,
I'm going, please God, please God, I'm sorry for everything.
You go through them all, you're like, water.
Muhammad, I'll take anybody on this stage.
And then the Egyptian gods pop up and they're like, you're welcome.
You're like, well, I've got a new religion now.
One of the Egyptian gods.
Rah, God of the sun.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
Hot chick at work who my colleagues and I all admired.
Respectfully. Respectfully.
Respectfully.
Well, always in the workplace respectfully.
Because we were hooking up one night.
I went back to her house.
In the middle of a trip downtown.
Good for you.
Making my way downtown.
Faces pass.
I hope there's no gas.
That's actually one to try.
Have you ever had the thousand miles?
Oh my god!
You're about to get Vanessa Cowden!
You say this, you go down
Making my way downtown
Wow
And then the sequel to that is the white
Give them the white lotus
My phone just said
It looks like you've
My watch just said
It looks like you've taken a hard fall
You went downtown
You went downtown.
You went downtown.
Way too far.
So in the middle of a trip downtown, she said, I shouldn't be doing this.
I said, why?
And she said, I'm a member of the Destiny Church.
Oh.
Oh, this hottie.
This work hottie.
Yeah. I can wait.
And that is the end of the thousand miles.
Okay, let me, some of these might need a pre-read.
Hooking up with this hot-ass band guy when I was young,
fangirling pretty hard, thought it would be cool to have a spa.
He went under the water to wet his cool-ass boy band hair
and came up to flick his hair, except when he came up
he just had snot
out of his nose.
And it was like in his mouth, and he went
and that was that. I need to know what band.
I think it was just like
a local covers band. Right. Surely,
surely, surely, surely, surely, surely.
Yuck.
Okay, my super hot ex that everybody was obsessed with used to disappear at parties we were at
and put chicks' makeup on because he thought it made his eyes look better.
Huh.
But he was Jason Marmol vibes until the poorly applied makeup, and then it was super ick.
Oh.
Yeah, what's he doing that for?
Huh.
You look fine, darling.
Don't edit.
What was I doing before he gets to the party? Jason Marmol does look hot in eyeliner, though. Yeah, he does Also do it before you get to the party.
Jason Momoa does look hot in eyeliner though.
Yeah, he does.
Bad boy.
Imagine though, Jason Momoa
that's finally
happening and he doesn't go down to town.
Oh my god, he doesn't go down to town, he's got a stanky dick.
Teethy kiss and he's got a stank dick.
Like, what do you do?
It'd be ruined for you forever.
My whole life would just be derailed.
Never meet your heroes.
Yeah, never meet your heroes. Yeah, that's true.
Somebody else said
we were out in
da clubs, saw a very attractive man
was all
about it. He came over and started dancing.
I thought, oh my, I'm so lucky.
And then he took my hand
and whisked me away.
And then, I don't know how they did this.
They said they never heard his voice until they were in the Uber,
and then he started talking, and he had a really hyper squeaky voice.
Like a jockey.
Oh, boy, I'm going to give it to you.
I'm going to give you the various card when you get to my house.
Oh, my God, I've never seen such a beautiful woman in my life.
I can't wait to take you down a thousand miles.
There are some more here.
I mean, they're all following a pretty similar theme. They are, yeah.
This goes to show you, beauty doesn't fix everything.
I had a bit of a crush through high school on one of the good-looking sporty guys at school.
A couple of years after school had finished, I went back home from university.
We ended up hooking up.
Later, he ended up at his house.
Well, the snogging was okay.
His shagging was not what I'd expected.
Oh, no.
He was such a good-looking athletic guy, but he humped like a randy dog tries to hump your leg.
He arched his back and just moved the bottom half.
Planted. like a randy dog tries to hump your leg he arched his back and just moved the bottom half yeah yeah
i walked away from the situation super perplexed as to why he'd always been such a cocky guy.
Yeah.
But that's the thing, baby.
It was hot.
No one ever was like, oh my God.
No one ever tells the hot people.
Like, thrust it.
Slow it down.
A hot psychologist I'd been seeing seemed so cool, hot, and also like very intuitive.
Then after a few dates, he started asking me to give him critical life feedback so he could learn to be a better person.
He did this while anxiously biting his wrist.
What?
I don't know if I've got mental health issues if I want to be seeing that dude.
I went out with a hot rich guy.
I haven't seen these ones.
These came in after we finished talking about it.
So these are all new to me. I went out with a hot rich guy. After we did the these ones. These came in after we finished talking about it, so these are all new to me.
I went out with a hot rich guy.
After we did the deed, he rolled over,
and he had toilet paper in his bum hole.
Oh, my God.
How did he not feel it?
Oh, my God.
Love that.
Oh, my God. Oh, it's so it. Oh, my God. Love that. Oh, my God.
It's so human.
I was seeing a guy casually after matching on Tinder.
The first time he came for a sleepover, he came out after we'd done the deed.
In which part was a Vanessa Carton?
Oh, beautiful.
A bit of a thousand miles.
And he was using my toothbrush to brush his teeth.
The whole circle of life really freaked me out. Oh, no. A bit of a thousand miles. And he was using my toothbrush to brush his teeth. The whole circle of life really freaked me out.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
Okay, that's all.
You get a new toothbrush.
That's why we can't read them all on the radio.
Yes.
God, we appreciate those wild, wild, wild ones.
Never stop sending them.
I feel dizzy and giddy
