Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Thank you, Sam. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Are we all feeling a little bit more slept in?
Yeah, a little bit, but I slept for two hours last night.
Two hours?
Bad night. You know one of those nights where it's just like, this isn't going to happen.
What happened?
I don't know, sort of anxious for a bit, which is's just like, this isn't going to happen. What happened? I don't know. I was sort of anxious
for a bit, which is so much fun.
Sunday scaries. A little bit of Sunday
scaries. Yeah, right.
What's there to be scared of? We've got a great lunch
on Thursday. We've really got a great lunch.
We've got a big lunch on Thursday.
It's a short week. Yeah.
It is. I'm excited. I'm good. I'm good.
Two hours was so plenty
for me.
When you're missing out on Thursday, we're having one hell of a lunch.
You guys are just going to the same old place you always go.
Expand your horizons in the culinary front.
Because it's good.
It's good, but gosh, you should see there's other restaurants.
What, in Auckland?
Yeah, yeah. At least two other restaurants.
Not known for its food.
No, this is like me and my butter chicken and my pad thai.
I know what I'm getting. Why would you get something else? Why would I get something else? Why would you get something else? It's two other restaurants. Not known for its food. No, this is like me and my butter chicken and my pad thai.
I know what I'm getting.
Why would you get something else? Why would I get something else?
Why would you get something else?
Why would you?
Why would you?
Well, a short week.
Long Weekend Group 2 returns on Thursday at 8 o'clock.
I have high hopes.
Yes.
We've been jaded in the past.
Well, even though Apple released their phone update.
Which can gate out background noise. So, see, it could their phone update, which can gate out
background noise, so see,
it could be the end of the long weekend group too, but
Thursday, on the way,
the top six. Yeah, the government
I don't want to
start any conspiracies,
but the government are building a secret
data collection point.
Now we're doing it right under our noses.
So I've got the top six things the government wants to know
about your data usage.
Silly little poll on the way as well.
How do we feel about working from home?
I think if I've got to get my ass out of bed and be here,
everyone should have to do that.
We'll give you the poll results soon.
Play.
ZM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Good for this person. Give me the poll results. Play. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Good for this person.
There is a man called Arjun, and he scoured, well, he crowdsourced the best Reddit life hacks.
He must have done this with some kind of AI or some kind of scraping program. He said the scraping program because he scraped through 21.9 million people's posts.
Oh, okay.
For life hacks.
He 100% used some kind of program.
Yeah.
So he said,
here are the 20 life tips you wish you knew.
So the best ones.
So ones that people repeated.
Again and again and again.
Okay, wow.
Okay, okay.
Okay, I'll just do 10.
Okay.
No.
You want 20?
You know that we...
You want 11.
13.
No.
Oh, yeah.
That's his tempting it.
13.
You've got to go 14 or 12.
What about 15?
Well, if we're doing 15,
it's too close to 20.
Might as well do 20.
That's why I went 13.
Oh, that's such a...
Oh, it doesn't feel good.
It's an odd number
and it's unlucky.
When you microwave
something,
do you put it on a,
do you put 33 seconds
just because you're a monster?
No, because I don't know
how to use my microwave
so it just goes 30.
Yeah, I don't know.
The microwave I bought,
I don't know how
to figure it out.
Well, does it not have ones?
No.
Because I can do
one minute tens and ones.
No, no, no, no.
Mine's fancier than theirs
who knows me about
my microwave
if we're getting into it
yeah
if we're getting into it
but wait
why will you microwave
something on an even
but you want Hayley
to read out this list
uneven
no I want 13
because it's
it's unlucky for some
Baker's does
yeah I think we're
I'm feeling lucky
number 13
my microwave does
power defrost
yeah
and if we forget to get the frozen dog food out. My microwave does power defrost. Yeah.
And if we forget to get the frozen dog food out,
you put it on power defrost.
Yeah.
But it still cooks it a little bit.
100%. Of course it does.
But you have to put it in and put in,
you don't put in a time, you put in a weight.
Oh, yeah.
Same with mine.
Well, don't do that.
Well, I don't know how much a bowl of frozen raspberries weighs.
Yeah.
Want me to weigh everything before I microwave it?
Just let me punch in 20 minutes
and see how we're looking at the end of that.
I'll just keep checking it.
Yeah.
Okay, you want 13?
Yeah.
Are there any microwave life hacks on this list?
I'm not sure yet.
I'm finding out as you are.
Number 13 on Reddit's top life hacks.
When cooking things, well, this is appropriate.
I knew it.
We've dropped in right where we needed to be.
When cooking things on aluminium foil,
first scrunch the foil up,
then lay it loosely flat again out on your baking tray,
like crunch it up and then flatten it.
The juices will then stay put
and the food will not stick to the foil half as much.
This is left surface area.
If at all.
Number 12, don't just let kids win at games.
You can slow it down.
You can teach them strategy, but keep it real.
Someday they will beat you fair and square
and it will be a moment they will always remember with pride.
Yeah, but if you're playing soccer and you're like 40 or 30
and they're five.
Kick them, kick a ball into their head.
Learn a lesson.
Number 11, never send a work email
when you're emotionally compromised. Type it up, save it as a draft and walk away. Learn a lesson. Number 11, never send a work email when you're emotionally compromised.
Type it up, save it as a draft, and walk away.
I do this.
Ideally, sleep on it.
You'll make a smarter choice when you're not heated.
Unless you get two hours sleep.
And then the next day you're just as heated.
Yeah.
Number 10, if you tell someone you need to talk to them.
Oh, my God. Yes, this one. If you tell someone, hey someone you need to talk to them Oh my god, yes, this one
If you tell someone, hey, we need to talk
For the love of God, give them some indication of what you're going to talk about
Or at least that it's not bad news
You know when someone says, hey, are you able to pop in about 3 o'clock this afternoon?
Then you spend the whole day being like
What have I done, what have I done?
Oh my god
I'm getting fired
Oh my god
I know, Ross Boss did it to me the other day.
He wanted to talk about something very, very brief and quick.
I was like, oh, hey, are you close to work?
Yeah.
Oh, pop in and see me.
I was like.
Probably walking into the building.
He's all over.
Okay.
Number nine, if you need to cancel a hotel reservation
but are unable to because of a 24-hour policy,
call the company and move your reservation to a later date
and you can call back and cancel that.
I've done this.
I've done that exact thing and it works sometimes.
Because you're saying, hey, I'm not going to take the money away.
I'm just going to shuffle it back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it more works if you've booked it with,
or maybe if you have booked it on something like Expedia
that could still work.
Yeah.
Genius.
It is genius, actually.
Number eight, before you give your child a unique name, try it out first.
Use it on food orders, reservations, appointments, where applicable.
It'll give you a glimpse of what they'll deal with when they're older and could prevent future issues.
Yeah, that's good.
If you had a really difficult name and then you're going like, no one knows how to say it.
What did Elon Musk and Grimes call their kid?
Like, four, eight, six, jubba, jubba, jubba, jubba.
Jubba the heart.
Yeah.
Number seven, after a bad breakup,
do 10 things that your ex would never do with you.
You'll feel better and realise how much of yourself was being held back.
That's a good one.
Do you know what Aaron would do?
What?
Go to Rambo's End.
Because you don't want to go. Because he always says to me, like, you never, you always say we What? Go to Rainbow's End. Because you don't want to go.
Because he always says to me, like, you never, you always say we'll go to Rainbow's End and we still haven't been.
He so wants to go.
I love that he's just a big kid.
Any time I'll say to him, what do you want to do?
He'll be like, Rainbow's End.
He wouldn't even be able to go on most of the rides, would he?
He'd be too tall for some of them.
He'd be too tall for some of them.
His knees,
even the gold rush,
his knees.
I don't even know,
the gold rush would get hit
by a bloody gold rafter
in the mind.
Yeah, or no,
just getting in the wagon.
Yeah, right.
Number six,
when a friend is upset,
ask them one simple question
before saying anything else.
Do you want to talk about it
or do you want to be
distracted from it?
Oh, I like that.
You know when someone
wants to get into it
and you're like, stop it.
Okay, here's the top five.
Number five, do not try to be the man
your father would want you to be.
Be the man you would like your son to be.
Wow.
It more clearly defines your own convictions,
desires, goals, and motivates you to be your best.
It's for all the dads out there.
Number four, when you don't have all the facts,
try to give people the most generous
reason you can for their behaviour
Annoyingly slow driver?
Maybe it's a mum with a birthday cake in the back
This mindset will gradually make you
less reactive and more compassionate
That's good, that's really good
Is that going to work with you when you're in the Audi
going 30? Out of my way
Out of my way. Number three, always
tell a child who is wearing a helmet
how cool you think their helmet is.
It'll encourage them to always wear it in the future.
That's cool too.
There's no way they look cool though.
But did you ever think when you were a kid
that you didn't look cool in a helmet?
Yeah, they're lame.
Helmets are funny.
They're too big for your head.
Because when we were kids, helmets didn't look cool.
No. Now they've got coolies
They were a highlight of yellow
And like mushrooms
Yeah
And they were so sleek
Like sort of like pointy
Whereas now they're all like cute
So the top tips on Reddit
The last two
The last two
When you sign up for anything online
Put the website's name
As your middle name
That way when you receive spam
Or advert emails
You'll know who sold your information.
Yeah, or who leaked it.
There's a way to do that with Gmail addresses too.
Really?
So your usual Gmail name and then you can put a dot.
Yes, and then the company.
And it won't show up.
It'll still go to your inbox.
Yeah.
Okay, number one, if you're stuck on an annoying call,
put your phone on airplane mode instead of just hanging up.
The person will see that the call failed instead of call ended.
I like that.
I like that.
All the best life hacks.
Go about your week.
From Reddit.
Now, with all these hot, and don't forget,
be the man you want your son to be.
Let's all just execute our life like that today.
Well, dumb phones are on the rise.
I think we've talked about this.
You're a dumb phone?
Your face is a dumb phone.
I think we talked about this last year.
Sales have gone up even more.
Gen Z looking to limit their screen time.
Oh.
No, no, no, they're not doing the drugs.
No, they're not.
And they're not using them for burner phones.
Dumb phones are on the rise
and just continue to sell thousands by the month
because people are sick of screens.
They just want a phone that they can text friends,
keep in contact, and not be distracted.
I literally just picked up my phone.
Are you still talking?
I am.
Are you still?
I spoke for more than 15 seconds.
That was enough to lose you.
What are you doing, Vaughn?
I was going to start writing the top six.
Oh, yes.
Wait.
So who's distracted the Gen Zs?
I mean, the dumb phone was fun.
It had like two games on it.
Yeah, Nokia Snake. But they're not going to pay 20 cents. The greatest game on the Nokia Snake I mean the dumb phone was fun it had like two games on it yeah
Nokia Snake
but they're not going to pay
20 cents
the greatest game
on the Nokia Snake
was good
but there was this one
where you were a parachuter
and you had to go through
the rings
do you remember that one
no
no
it was like
bloop
and the start was this little
like stick figure
oh yeah kind of
and it would jump out of a plane
and the screen kind of
moved along
and you had to like
see the ring coming
it would start as a dot and it would get doot doot doot doot bigger and you had to like see the ring coming it would start as a dot
and it would get
doot doot doot doot
bigger and you had to like
navigate through the ring
oh yeah that does ring a bell now
Nokia parachute game
oh yeah that
it's like a bird's eye view
of falling down on the
yeah yeah yeah
and you had to go through the rings
right
give you a little point
because that was the most
that could distract you
in the 2000s
yeah
and boy did it
did one of them
have Tetris on it?
Yeah, yeah. By the way,
there's a Tetris movie.
I saw that.
What happens?
It's about when they
got it from Russia, right?
Because it was a
Russian military.
I thought it was just
a whole movie
he was watching
waiting for the big
filling lines. Ding, ding, ding. Blug, blug, blug. I loved it when you, like, one would come down and then just as it touched, you'd flip it.
Yeah.
Like, oh, gotcha, gotcha.
Surprised you.
I know, the long red one.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, how good's a long red one?
When you get a long red one,
if you had to turn it to get it into, like, a C,
and you had to go blug.
Haven't we done final rankings Tetris pieces?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Blug.
If all it was was falling squares, you'd never lose.
Yeah, well, you need some different shapes, don't you?
Let's go to the social media desk.
Shannon, Shannon like pyjamas.
Dumb phones.
What are we thinking?
Yeah, I want one.
What for?
You work in social media.
You probably need access to an app or two.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I'd use my work phone for work stuff.
But it'd be quite nice
to just when you go
out for a night out
just to be able to
touch base with
friends making sure
everyone's safe but
yeah being away from
the phone.
How are you going to
take sick bathroom
photos?
Oh no but that's the
trend now as people
are using these
obviously the Nokia
didn't have a camera
but the flip phones
people are taking
these real trendy
it's like cool now
to have a blurry photo. We've
gone backwards. You guys
suck.
My friend and I have been looking for a flip
top phone like secondhand for genuinely
months. Really?
Why do you want a secondhand one?
Well, because that's the only way to really find them.
No, they're selling them brand
new. The best dumb phones of 2023.
Yeah, but do you know how expensive they are?
Nokia 26.
Are they as expensive as a smartphone?
They would be like the lower end ones.
So you just want a Nokia 3310 secondhand.
Yeah, I reckon I've got a bloody few Alcatels
and a bloody Razr and all that.
Here's a 4G Nokia 2760 flip phone
with a five megapixel camera and no front camera.
Perfect.
18 days standby battery.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
And it weighs 136 grams.
This thing is featherweight.
Yeah, wow.
How much?
It's got four gigabytes of storage.
Oh, holy moly.
So you can have like 10 photos.
Okay, today's best deal.
Check the market, NZ.
Free plug.
Do you remember deleting photos? Yeah. I you can have like 10 photos. Okay, today's best deal. Check the market, NZ. Free plug.
Do you remember deleting photos?
Yeah.
Do you remember?
There's like girls on TikTok who have come up with a way how you can transfer those photos onto your iPhone
so that you can then post them.
Yeah.
Just on your iPhone.
Have a listen to what you just said.
Yeah, it's so fun.
How am I?
Do you have a ballpark?
Now what?
That market didn't have one.
NZ.
We'll take back your free.
I'm sure they're stoked with your free plug.
You're amazing.
$169 at Parallel Unported.
There you go.
Do you remember when we always used to buy our phones from Parallel Unported?
Oh, my God.
Well, that's not too bad.
Yeah, but, you know, you want it to be like 50 bucks so you can just chuck it around.
Doesn't matter if you lose it in the club.
Okay.
All right.
So these are the best dumb phones of 2023.
The EasyPhone Prime A6.
The Nokia 225, but that just doesn't flip.
Yeah.
It doesn't flip.
No, you've got to have the flip.
You've got to have the flip phone.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
It is so silly, silly, silly that the silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole.
Silly little pole today is about working from home
because apparently this is the most searched
or the most preferred term to see in a job offering.
Yeah, and also I read as well that a lot of jobs...
Did you read?
Can I just stop and say congratulations?
Thank you.
Thank you.
I know you've been trying really hard with your reading.
I do my reading every day.
And apparently jobs now pulling back on working from home.
A lot of industries and jobs want people back in the office.
You get your sick ass to work.
I don't care if you've got COVID-19, the novel coronavirus.
You get your ass into work and give it to the rest of us.
Yeah.
Do you still think we should be able to work from home now?
Now, the we might apply to, it sounds like it might be applying to us. Yeah. Do you still think we should be able to work from home now? Now the we
might apply to,
it sounds like
it might be applying to us.
Yeah.
We don't.
We can,
well we can,
but.
It sucks.
It does suck.
It's harder.
You don't get our
natural connection
and charisma
that the chemistry
doesn't quite come through.
The vibrant
in-person chemistry.
Do you still think
we should be able
to work from home?
A resounding 87% said yes.
13 saying nay.
That 13% sound like management.
Yeah.
Corbs.
A day or two never hurts, but it's a bit underwhelming
turning up to a dead office, having too many interactions over Zoom, etc.
A bit of our culture has gone, especially small offices.
Yeah.
I would rather, if I did have a nine to five office job,
I'd rather work in the office.
Yeah, same.
I'm also easily distracted.
So being at home is not helpful for me at all.
But take the commute out. I mean, yeah, the commute sucks, same. I'm also easily distracted, so being at home is not helpful for me at all. But take the commute out.
I mean, yeah, the commute sucks, obviously.
If you have to pay for parking.
Yeah.
If you have to sit on a stinky-ass bus for 18 hours a week.
Yeah.
Maybe, I don't know.
Maybe it's...
But then Corbs wants a bit of office culture.
Probably a big fan of an office pizza place.
And just sometimes it's easier if you need something, just to walk over to whoever you need it from and say,
can you help with this?
Can we get this done?
Yeah.
Rather than can we set up a Zoom?
What time suits you?
Right.
But maybe it's the people that can't, you know, work by themselves that are getting shown up here.
That don't know all the answers.
The people that have just spent their entire career delegating.
Yeah, that's true.
And now they're like, what would it?
Luke says, lazy people use it as a poor excuse to do the bare minimum
and it's why the next generation are lazy entitled slobs.
Jesus.
Don't hold back.
No.
I mean, agree, but still.
To say it like that.
But if they're getting the job done,
if they're getting it done what they're paid to get done
and not doing any extra, good on them.
They don't get paid to do the extra.
They're getting paid to do the job.
And if they're getting that done.
Be a minimum.
And they can't be, you know, coerced into staying longer at work
because in person they're intimidated by management.
They're all like, I need you to do something.
When it's like five to five.
And they're only paid till five.
But a balance.
Libby says,
it's time to get back to the office, people.
We know you're doing your washing
and lawns on work time.
You're damn right, Libby.
Hell yeah.
Who else is going to do the lawns?
They can squeeze it in.
Yeah.
As I said,
they're getting their work done.
If people aren't getting their work done,
probably get rid of them.
I miss working in pyjamas, says Lisa.
You still can. You should push
for a pyjama day. They normalise pyjamas
at work. Yeah, normalise it.
Fania? Like Tania,
but with a F. Fania?
Fania. Oh, okay, like Thanos'
sister. Thanos' little sister, yeah.
Who's like, Fania. Like Paula Hitler.
Yeah.
Fania? That's right. Are you related to Thanos? No, like Paula Hitler. Yeah. Paula. That's right. That's right.
Are you related to Thanos?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Fania says, because I don't want to travel to an office
when I can instead start at 7.30 without stressing about traffic,
public transport and see my dumb boss's face.
Yeah.
Someone has to work from home there.
Dumb boss's face.
Emily says, only sometimes it ruins team bonding
and the atmosphere.
Here's my problem, Emily.
I hate team bonding.
I've got enough friends.
I don't need more friends.
Team bonding.
If you have to...
Being a team is like doing a fart.
If you have to push it,
it's probably shit.
Do you remember when Team NZ said that you, me and Ursula should go away for a weekend?
Yeah.
When we first got together as a team, they were like,
what do you think would benefit as a bit of team bonding for you three to go away together for the weekend?
So we were like, sweet, Team NZ, a bit of money.
Where are we going?
And they said, oh, that's up to you to organise and pay for it.
Oh, they weren't paying.
We were all like, I mean, that sounds nice, but no.
No.
No.
And then we just never bonded.
And you can tell.
You can tell.
Oh, my God.
Yes.
Now it's on chalkboard.
Yeah.
Nadia says, traffic is crap.
And we proved that for most jobs, you can have a hybrid approach.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I guess a bit of both, right?
A bit of push, a bit of pull.
All these floors for lease and buildings for lease in Central City.
Yeah, well, they're not going to be playing paintball in them.
Oh, yeah, fun.
And race go-karts.
And what do you love?
Those escape rooms.
Escape rooms!
You can just have whole floors of escape rooms.
Yeah.
Imagine go-karts.
You're just like that, sitting in the lift.
Bim, bim, bim.
Bim, bim, bim. Oh, my God, multi-level go-karts. Yeah. You're just like that, sitting in the lift.
Oh, my God.
Multi-level go-kart.
Yeah.
That's got to be a thing somewhere, right?
But my only thing would be in the closed space of the lift,
the exhaust fumes might get a bit much.
Maybe you could have a little oxygen mask.
Just sitting in the lift for a short time.
Oh, my God. Then you get stuck in the lift. Wham, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma.
Someone on the floor below is like, what is happening up there?
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma.
Ding.
Dangerously close to Crazy Frog just then.
Yeah, well, that's dropping down the gears, isn't it?
I'm just Guga. I can't find a multi-level. Well, well, that's dropping down the gears, isn't it? I'm just Googling.
I can't find a multi-level.
Well, let's start it.
You know, radio's not going to be around forever.
We need a backup plan.
Oh, world's largest indoor multi-level karting track.
Yum, yum, yum.
Stand by.
Oh, Jared's just sent one too.
Yeah, here we go.
Is that the one that he sent you?
8,000 foot.
That's a lot of foots foot That's a lot of foot
That's a lot of foot
It's one big warehouse
and it goes up levels like a car park
Where is it?
Oh, look at that track
Not here, not here
Look at that track
That's so sick
It's like a Westfields car park
A few big hairpins here
Hairpin, hairpin, into another hairpin.
I go too slow.
I always get beaten.
It's in Europe.
Oh, man.
Well, that's it.
I guess we have to go to Europe now.
We're working from Europe.
Cappadistria.
German.
Where the hell is that?
Is it German?
Probably German.

Classic Kiwis, we left our home out to the last minute.
Yes, we did. So there aren't
enough eggs. So the other day, so Margaret,
there were like literally none.
Yeah. Like normally the expensive ones
are still left
or the real
Yeah.
like large trays
but nothing.
If you can get your hands
on eggs at the moment
they're around about
a dollar per egg
is what it's kind of
breaking down to.
That's wild isn't it?
And that's not even
for your bougie you know
like fresh out
fresh out the butt
farmer's ones.
When we talked about this
what a few months ago we compared to cream egg pricing.
Cream eggs at the moment, the cheapest I can see online would be pack and save at 99 cents for a cream egg.
Well, there you go.
And the warehouse, a dollar.
Just the best omelette.
That would be such a good omelette.
A size, I'm going free range.
What did we say the other ones are called? Colony eggs? Yeah, they've changed the wording now. That would be such a good omelette. A size, I'm going free range. Yeah.
What did we say the other ones are called?
Colony eggs?
Yeah, they've changed the wording now.
That was when they live in a barn.
When you say colony, does that make you think,
and cage free might give you the idea that they're not in,
they might be locked in a shed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They're not in cages.
They call those sheds colonies now.
If you went for a traditional, We'll go in size 7.
We're not mucking around with mixed grade or size 6.
Why, Boba?
So a 12-pack of size 7, $10.90.
So that's 91 cents per egg.
And then the Otaka Valley eggs, free range.
I'd love to go there because I think it's just this beautiful valley
where chickens are just living in trees, doing whatever they want.
Their size sevens are $1.15 each.
Yeah, right.
I just saw you Googling.
Don't you dare tell me that Otaka Valley is no good for them.
No, that's the ones I buy.
I was Googling the average price of an egg in the USA.
I know that. for them. No, that's the ones I buy. I was Googling the average price of an egg in the USA. On average
down, a dozen large eggs
$4.29 American.
That's pretty cheap, eh? But then someone
said $18 in some places.
But they're also not being held back by
egg regulations. They had
avian bird flu get in.
So people just had to go through and kill all of their
laying hens. I remember speaking to a friend in LA
and he was saying, yeah, 12 US dollars
for a dozen, 12 to 14.
Right.
US.
That's insane.
Far right.
What about now I'm just looking up the price of pullets?
What's a pullet?
It's a chicken that lays eggs.
Because I'm...
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You should get some chickens again.
I'm going to, yeah,
because I don't know where
the three remaining
clopdashy hens are laying, and they're getting a bit old,
so they might not be laying.
They'll be yucky eggs.
At all.
It's time to take them to a farm.
Yeah.
They're already a monster.
No, a farm.
You just chuck them in the bird and then.
Options for one.
Oh, my God.
Oh, no, that's like a flash.
That's a bougie.
I don't need a bougie hen.
I just need a run-of-the-mill brown shaver.
One of the bloody side effects of this egg shortage,
other than it being hard to get an omelette at a cafe,
custard squares.
Gone.
Lots of cafes and, you know, bakeries and stuff
have custard squares off because custard's made out of eggs and sugar.
Egg yolks and sugar.
That one's so yum.
Yeah.
It's just the fat part of eggs
and sugar. Yum.
And so custard square.
I didn't want to get upset.
What were those amazing custard squares we had?
We got to send them. Den Heath custard squares.
There's no fun in a custard square.
There simply isn't. They're fluffy.
They're light. They're fat.
Thoughts with Den Heath?
Shall I get these
As baby chickens
Yes
You need to get like
10 chickens
And then give us
All the eggs for free
Yeah you need to get more chickens
Because yours tend to die
So like we need to
Have a few
Chickens do have a nasty
Habit of dying
Den Heath custard squares
Or just tuck in
Or just tuck into a cream egg
For 99 cents.
Yeah.
Same, same.
Yum.
Play.
ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
From the bustling ZM think tank, this is the top six.
The government has been secretly building a $300 million data centre at an Air Force base in Auckland since early last year
to house the most important information.
Oh, my God.
And also just all about us, I guess.
Where have they been keeping it up till now?
Laptops.
Just on Gmail or something.
Yeah, the cloud.
The cloud, right.
But the cloud got full.
And it's like, you're going to have to expand the cloud.
And so now you're going from $5.99 a month to $16.99 a month.
Oh, okay, yeah.
And they're like, maybe we'll just build our own then.
Yeah.
So they're going to build their own.
This is the GCSB's mentioned.
Yeah.
What's that?
Goods Services Broadcasting Company.
No, it's a secret people.
Government Communications Security Bureau.
Yeah, that's our spies.
That's our spies.
And they're building it at Vanuapai, aren't they?
The Air Force Base.
Just by your place.
Very close to mine.
Yeah.
Which could mean faster internet speed.
Oh, okay.
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
Is that a thing?
Is that a thing?
Well, you just run a cord.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, I'll just hook it to the main.
And away you go.
So I've got the top six things that the government already know about your data usage.
Before they even did this, so God knows what they're going to find out next.
Number six on the list of the top six things the government already know about your data usage.
Everything that happens in incognito mode.
Oh yeah, incognito is not incognito.
I'm pretty sure that's unpenetrable.
No, very penetrable. I mean, your partner's unpenetrable. No, no, no.
Very penetrable.
I mean,
your partner's not going to be able to search
what you were searching.
Yeah.
But the internet knows.
Starlink knows.
Thus, Elon Musk knows.
Right.
Yeah.
I've got nothing to hide.
You're one tweet away.
Number five on the list of...
The other...
On your phone
when you were trying to Google something
and you're like, oh, how did that pop up?
Remember that you showed me?
I'm like, look.
I was like, oh, yes, okay.
Top six.
That was frequently visited.
Well, it's a work laptop, so.
Top six is that government already know about your data usage.
How you have to Google how to tie a tie every time you have to tie a tie.
That's me.
Yeah, hey, I won't be judged either.
I want the flash one.
I know how to do the easy one, but I want the flash.
The big fat ones, yeah.
The big fatty Windsor.
Number four on the list of the top six things
the government already know about your data usage.
What you're looking at when you slightly tilt
your phone screen away from your partner.
Just...
Maybe you swivel in your chair.
When it's just a slight
twist in the wrist.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You're good?
No, I'm good.
Number three
on the list of the top
six things the government
already know about your daddy.
You said,
how often you Google
your own name?
Oh, yeah.
I'll just admit,
everybody's uncovered
those things.
It's been a couple of days.
Any salacious rumours
out there?
You've got to go
Haley Sproul
and then go news
because then it kind of puts it a bit more order.
She is beautiful, eh?
Anyway, we'll leave you with that because she could be a while.
It should be hours.
Top six things the government already know about your data usage.
What made you have that wry smile and then put your phone face down?
Called the Fletch Classic, that one.
It's just a funny,
I get a lot of funny jokes.
Sometimes his eyes
widen.
And then he goes,
whew.
That is not true.
That is not true.
And number one on
the list of the top
six things the
government don't
already know about
your data usage,
how quickly you
Google something
that you didn't
know and then
pretend you did
know it all along.
Yeah.
It's a classic.
Yeah. Yeah. Often with a clay circuit. Yeah.
Often with like Gen Z slang. I'm like, yeah, you too.
No cap. No
cap.
What does no cap mean?
That is today's sub-sub.
Clay, Zed-Ems, Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
There was a recent study of Dutch men
and they
printed this in the Frontiers in psychology management.
And it was-
Dutch men, tall.
I'm imagining tall, masculine, very upright.
Striking.
Yeah.
Straight, right.
Very tall.
Yeah, tall.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Broad-shouldered.
Yep.
Wooden shoes.
And clogs.
Yeah, yeah.
And bright orange shoes.
I know they always have the best sports uniforms.
Because they stand out.
Yeah, bright orange.
Yeah.
And also, I feel like you see the orange, and because they're also hot, the Dutch athletes.
Very distracting.
Maybe you're giving a little bit of the hot points to the orange.
Yeah.
Because your average person in orange, I can't do an orange.
No offense,
Fulton Hogan.
Yep.
But no one's driving past
the roadworks
with the same amount
of ooh-la-la
as they do
the Dutch hockey team.
Yeah.
No offense.
That's why you could never
beat the Dutch
in your triathlete career.
You bet.
Always came second.
Ooh-la-la.
Well, I like to run behind them.
Of course, yeah.
Do you remember when Dutch men started holding hands?
For what purpose?
I think someone was protesting against a gay couple,
so all these businessmen and stuff would walk to work holding hands.
That's nice.
That's really fun, isn't it?
Lots of trams, lots of bikes.
You could be holding your friend's hand.
You could be like, wait, and just pull them back.
You save them from being kicked.
And then I saved your life once.
Yeah.
Just wanted to remind that that happened.
I found some free sunglasses in the gutter,
and as I reached out to get them and then gave them to Fletch,
a bus almost killed me.
But Hayley saved your life.
It was a beautiful day.
Well, this study was looking at how men self-report
when asked to be part of a study.
So they got them to self-report on their mostly traits of masculinity.
So athleticism, height, weight, and willy size.
Okay.
And then they compared it with data from medical records of your actual size
and the average size of Dutch men in general
and found that particularly the greatest exaggeration that Dutch men were making
was penis size.
And they were overestimating it on average 21%.
Oh my God, they're adding a fifth.
You've always got to round up.
Adding a fifth. They. You've always got to round up. Adding a fifth.
They call that Dutch rounding.
They call that Swedish.
Swedish rounding,
you round to the nearest five.
Dutch,
you just round it up.
Yeah.
So they also exaggerated their height
and that was only by 1% though.
Okay.
But they exaggerated their athletic abilities as well.
By how much?
18%. But is it because you know your height? Yeah, your height's one of those things their athletic abilities as well. By how much?
18%. But is it because you know your height?
Yeah, your height's one of those things you constantly know
you have to write down and you're told.
Yeah.
But whereas your length of your member.
And also some people are probably using the ruler
and going from under the balls.
Yeah, you're not going to have to go around the balls.
No, we've already said you've got to go up the top.
Yeah, it's from the top.
Measure on the top.
Yeah, that's what's...
You can't include the balls.
You're not allowed to push the ruler in.
You can't push it into his guts.
You're not allowed to be like,
Oh, church!
What is it for the extra centimetre?
You're not allowed to do that.
You're not allowed to, yeah.
So the results were implying that basically any self-reported data
on private aspects of masculinity, so from around the world,
will probably not render accurate results
and should be approached with caution
because they think that the data will always be,
because it's like, I don't know,
people associate it with how much of a man you are.
And it's about their insecurity because they see things like your willy
and your body type and stuff.
It helps with people's self-image and identity and how successful they feel.
So we're all lying to ourselves.
But also if somebody said, how long is it?
And then you said, and then they're like, all right,
now we're going to measure it.
You'd be like, performance anxiety.
Yeah.
So the research team found participants in the group
were significantly more likely to report that their hard
and soft willies were larger even than the claimed world record.
Some people were like 34 centimetres.
Ah.
Yeah.
But they obviously weren't taking the world record seriously.
Yeah, I feel like that really pumped up the 21% of exaggeration.
Do you think the New Zealanders, because we're quite understated,
aren't we?
We don't like to blow our own trumpets.
No, blow your own horn.
We've tried that.
We've tried that.
It's just not long enough.
Yeah, yeah.
But do you think we would be the same here?
Because it's just the Dutch.
This is just the Dutch.
And maybe there is something because they're so big and golden looking.
I just Googled Dutch men.
Also, I think we would be as bad.
Yeah, absolutely.
You've always got to round up, right?
Yeah, you've got to round it right up.
Okay, we round it.
So yesterday, in the lead up to,
Hayley was like, let's go to these markets.
We'll meet at these markets.
The markets, the markets, the markets.
Okay.
We were a group of six.
We were mutual friends, Jake and Casey.
Yeah.
We're going to come with us.
But then there was illness.
Wait, did I get invited to this? Yeah, but you said
it was too far away.
I even said I'd come and pick you up.
And you still said no.
Which is fine. So I wake up
yesterday, first day
of daylight savings
or the end of daylight savings.
So I'm awake at 6 o'clock in the morning.
I was awake at 5.
Which would normally be 6. which would normally be six.
I would normally be seven as six.
And then the kids are awake and they're like, why are we awake
so early? I was like, daylight savings.
So we sat there for a bit
and they said, what time do these markets start?
And I said, ten and by God, we're going to
be there as the gates
open. A decision he made on his own without consulting.
So then I messaged Hayley at a
gentleman's hour. Eight o'clock on a Sunday. Eight o'clock on a Sunday. consulting. So then I messaged Hayley at a gentleman's hour. 8 o'clock
on a Sunday. 8 o'clock on a Sunday. Wow.
Which is the old 9 o'clock on a
Sunday. But it's not 9, it's 8. 9 o'clock on a Sunday?
Yeah. But it's 8. Saying, are we
still on for the markets?
And she says,
nothing. And then
I messaged the group and the group's quite
active. Sorry we can't come, we're sick.
I said, that's all good.
We're going to head there.
We're going to be there at 10 when the gates open.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Get to these markets.
Zero phone reception.
No, no, no.
In the group, you did not say we're going to go there at 10.
You did not.
We're going to be there at 10. What time is everybody thinking of heading?
I said, what time are you up for?
At 10.08, Hayley says, what time is everybody thinking of heading there?
Who goes to the markets?
The whole thing about the markets is there's food stalls.
What are you going to have?
Breakfast.
Dumplings for breakfast?
Yes.
No, it was a lunch date.
No, it was never a lunch date.
Literally, I said, we're heading off now at 10.40.
10.40.
You didn't even wait that long.
I said, we're heading off now.
10.40, they opened at 10.
He said, we've left.
We were done because we got there at 10 when it was opening and there's zero
phone reception. And then I lost my
family because I stopped to look at the
blacksmith, maybe
for five to ten minutes and they kept walking
and then I lost them. So once I re-found them, I
said, grab a treat. Let's grab somebody.
Let's get out of here. It's getting too crowded.
It's full noise. It's hot and I'm in jeans.
Yeah, that's on you that
you wore jeans. It was a silly idea. So then I leave, I get back into phone reception and Hayley's hot and I'm in jeans. Yeah, that's on you that you wore jeans. It was a silly idea.
I was like...
And then I leave, I get back into phone reception and Hayley's like...
I'm coming.
We're just thinking, what time is everybody thinking of heading?
20 to 11.
We're heading there now.
Gone.
20 to 11.
Don't say 20 to 11.
You're weaponising 20 to 11.
It was 10.40.
20 to 11.
The minute it goes past the half past, you start referring to the next hour.
I got what I wanted, which was a look at the blacksmith guy and then something to eat.
No, what we wanted was a day to hang out.
I didn't think we were hanging out.
Wake up at a decent time!
I didn't think we were hanging out for 30 minutes.
I thought we were going to spend the day together.
If you had been there, we probably would have been forced to hang out a little bit longer.
Now, can we talk about the next thing that happened?
Jake, our friend, said, have fun.
Vaughn said, we've left.
Then I said, oh, do you guys want to get lunch today?
Left on scene.
That's Vaughan.
Wow.
Utterly left on scene.
That's why the last time they went to have lunch.
Because I knew that they couldn't do lunch because they weren't well.
So I said.
We can still do lunch.
I said, we're going to Westgate for a few things.
Are you going to go to the markets?
And then she said, come around for an afternoon G&T.
Nice.
Invitation.
What's the rest of your day's plans?
We're just going for a drive in the Audi.
See, she can't even get through a conversation without dropping in the corporate.
We went for a drive to the Audi.
In the Audi.
I know, we're just going for a drive.
Would have been fine, but she needs to remind me that Audi have given her a car.
But listen to this.
Then I said, oh, the Smashburger dude, so we've been talking about for a while,
are at Barefoot Brewery today.
We're going to go for dinner if you guys are keen.
And he said, oh, Kia ora, we've got dinner sorted.
We've got dinner sorted.
I had a big lovely steak that I picked up
on the way home from the markets.
What the hell?
At a decent hour.
It's in the fridge.
This man gave me 40 minutes of his time
before he realised that he didn't want to hang out
with me anymore.
It's a small window.
And he left and he went home.
It's a small window. And then you're he went home. It's a small window.
And then you're like, remember when you asked me to socialise?
You bailed.
I did.
At no point did we say what time we were going.
You've got to be at the markets at opening.
Otherwise the lines get too long.
How long did you wait in a line for food?
We didn't at all.
It was chill come lunchtime.
Fluke.
Fluke.
The traffic. That market was chaos. Let. Fluke. Fluke. The traffic.
That market was chaos.
Let's avoid that.
Who was it?
How many people on no phone reception?
Let's have better communication next time.
When I lost my wife, I walked...
Yeah, you make a plan before you just go to the thing.
When I lost my wife, I opened up a note on my phone and put,
where the F are you?
And I just walked around on airdrop waiting for her phone to pop up.
Like trying to like find a hunter down.
They always have, you know, they have like lost children meeting points.
They need lost adult meeting points.
Well, that's what we said we needed to establish next time.
But I'm a fan.
I'll wear a helium balloon.
I don't care.
Yeah, you need a little bell.
What about overhead power lines?
No, not that long.
I'm not wearing it that long.
But just a helium balloon so I'm easy to spot
in the crowd. I don't mind that. Do you know what you
missed out on? Speaking of the Audi.
The Audi's been involved in a crime.
What? After we
left, Aaron was like, should we go have a little bit of a drive
around Hobsonville, like this other kind
of point nearby? And I was like, yeah.
We'll go have a look. We don't really know what's out there.
And then we saw this like old villa
with like boarded up windows. We're like, oh my god, look at that. And then I said, let's go have a little looky don't really know what's out there. And then we saw this like old villa, like with like boarded up windows.
We're like, oh my God, look at that.
And then I said, let's go have a little looky poo.
Because it was for sale.
It was for sale.
And then we walked onto the property.
I was like looking at the roof on there.
And then a big massive alarm went off.
And then I looked at the sign
and it belonged to the Defence Force.
It might have been a bomb.
They might have been storing ammunition.
I was like, what?
And Aaron was like, move the Audi.
It was in the driveway with cameras on it.
Yeah, you're definitely not getting this sponsorship renewed after a month.
Yeah, enjoy it.

The official Fletchbourne and Hayley Hot Cross Bun Index.
Hot Cross Buns.
Hot Cross Buns.
One of any two of any Hot Cross Buns.
Mm-hmm.
Now, one of my favourite things about Easter.
I like a chocolate egg, don't get me wrong.
But I like to go crazy on Hot Cross Buns.
So we have put together our Hot Cross Bun Index.
Yeah, we spent last week taking your recommendations.
Yep.
And we've compiled all of them.
Yep.
And we've got a handy little map.
If you're in Auckland, you can get the names from there.
I mean, if you're in Auckland, you know these are in Auckland.
So then just pop them in bloody Google Maps.
Yeah, yeah.
And cruise out and get them.
But the map of the entire country.
Yeah, yeah, no,
it is what I'm saying.
But, you know,
Auckland's got its ones
and the Waikato
and then Rotorua,
Napier,
Wairarapa,
can I say,
really pop it in there
with some representation.
They love their buns, don't they?
And then the South Island as well.
There is a little bit
of an empty stretch.
Whereabouts?
Between Nelson
and Christchurch.
Now, I'm going to be spending
Easter in the Marlborough region.
Oh.
Must be nice.
Must be nice.
Must be nice.
But nothing in there mentioning.
What are you doing there?
Are you going to the wineries or are you going in the sounds?
Well, the very lovely people at Destination Marlborough said,
would the Smith family like to come down for a weekend?
And we lapped.
Must be nice.
Lapped at the opportunity.
Yeah, we're doing a whole lot of stuff.
It's going to be cool. Right.
We're going into the Marlborough Sounds, going to vineyards,
going to that plane museum to see those old planes.
Oh, we've been there. It's lovely, isn't it?
That's cool. So yeah, good times.
Might pop out to the Polaris
if we get a... Yeah, lovely.
Is it the Polaris, that river we went to that time?
Did we get any for New Plymouth?
I'm going to New Plymouth this weekend.
Oh, okay.
Let me pull up.
Nope.
But I'm sure Fletcher's mum would have a recommendation of where to get a...
Well, maybe I'll pop in.
She probably just does a pack and save hot cross bun
because she does her Saturday pack and save shop.
She does a Saturday shop.
Nothing wrong with that.
She'll just grab six or 12.
Yeah.
And that'll be her.
My mother-in-law, huge Costco fan.
Oh, yeah, okay.
She has a Costco card from America.
Oh, wow, okay.
And she uses it here.
Yep.
Oh, gee.
Yeah, right.
She uses it anywhere in the world.
And I told her I hear that hot cross buns are good,
and she called in and got some,
and she said as good as Legend Foretells.
Wow, really?
But they're not on our list.
Okay.
No, we've just gone for more of your bakeries.
Nobody came in. Yeah, yeah, nobody came in and did it. Okay, well, where they're not on our list. Okay. No, we've just gone for more of your bakeries, haven't we? Nobody came in. Yeah, yeah.
Nobody came in and did it. Okay, well where
can people find this Hot Cross Bun Index
form? Everywhere. Just yell
it into the, yell Hot Cross Bun
Index. Give me a Hot Cross Bun Index
and it will tell you whereabouts it is.
I don't know if that works. Should we go to Shannon
Shannon Lake Pyjamas at the social media
desk? Yeah. Where can people get the
Hot Cross Bun Index?
Head to FVH on Insti and Facebook.
My favourite part about this is going to be when people didn't put forward their bakery or weren't listening last week when we took the recommendations,
and then in the comments they'll sound off like they've been specifically excluded.
Excluded.
Yeah.
Where were you?
You stupid SOBs.
Yeah.
What about this place?
Happened with the ice cream index, didn't it?
Yeah, it really did.
People went full on.
Yeah.
Just abusive.
A lot of upset people.
And we were like, well, where were you?
Yeah.
We've been here.
We're here every week.
Yeah.
So.

Well, Kiwi actor Sam Neill has a book out.
He also has cancer.
I know.
Revealed that last month.
Yeah.
He's done all the treatment and everything,
and he just has to take some, I mean, I'm not trying to downplay it,
but I saw the headlines, you know, he has cancer.
But then when I saw him talking about it, he played it down a bit.
He was like, ah.
Yeah, he was saying he felt bloody good.
Right.
I think that's why he wrote this book, because it kind of gave him something to do. Right, because he's had it for like a year, right?
He was just dealing with all the treatment and stuff.
It seems quite, like lots of little kind of tidbits have come out from it.
But one thing that came out from this book was that he says in this book
he will never forgive his parents for calling him Nigel.
This is Jurassic Park, Hollywood star.
Nigel Neal.
Nigel Neal.
Sam Neal.
He was born in Northern Ireland.
The family moved to New Zealand when he was seven.
He was born Nigel.
Right.
Nigel John Dermott Neal.
And so he said when he was 11, he was like, I hate the name Nigel.
I'm now Sam.
So it wasn't like what a lot of celebrities do.
They move to Hollywood and they're like, Nigel's not going to work.
Like Charlie Star.
Yeah, Nigel's not going to work, so I'll change it.
Yeah.
He's Sam Neal.
So he chose Sam at the age of 11 and said he will never forgive his parents
for calling him Nigel.
Oh, God, that's a bit rough.
And adjovial.
And adjovial.
He said it's the only thing, the only thing that he can say about his parents
that's bad.
Right.
They did a good job otherwise.
Otherwise, yeah.
What would you change your name to if you weren't Carl?
I don't know.
I don't mind that name.
My middle name, I don't like Peter.
That's a bit dull, isn't it?
Yeah, Peter's a bit dull.
Peter's a bit.
Not as bad as Alan.
It doesn't mean anything.
Alan is a fine middle name.
Fine says Jane over here.
Yeah.
I don't know what I'd do.
I'd do something like Lollapalooza.
With the music festival.
Yeah, something like kind of curly and sexy.
Yeah, right.
Hayley, so 90s.
So late 80s, 90s.
But it's not bad.
No, I love my name.
Like, I don't want to offend any Nigels, but...
Nigel's not great.
Nigel's not, you know, like it's a bit of a...
Nigel Keith.
Nigel Keith.
Yeah, it's in that kind of...
It's in that realm.
Yeah.
Bruce, Nigel Keith.
But then in those days, those were the names that were popular.
Those were the names.
They were the names.
Like Hayley.
I don't think many people would call their kids Hayley anymore.
No.
I like my name.
No, it's definitely not a 20s baby name, Hayley.
No.
But I was wondering if there's anybody listening now that hates their name.
What's your work around?
Do you go by your middle name?
Because quite a few people will just go for their middle name,
won't they?
Well, that's right, because we worked out our show
was going to be Peter, Ellen, and Jane.
Good morning, you're listening to Peter, Ellen, and Jane.
Very British.
Yeah, it is.
Or some people, like I know people that just changed their name.
Like legally?
No, no, no, just like went by a different name.
But they're legally still called their other name.
I imagine so.
But that would be annoying.
Yeah.
Wouldn't you just rather actually change it properly
and then get your passport with your new name?
Maybe even you had a rubbish last name
and you couldn't wait to get married.
Yeah.
Because it was associated to, I don't know,
if it was your father's name and he was never around.
Winkle Bottom.
Oh, that's a nice one. Born Winklebottom.
I like that. Oh yeah, Winklebottom.
I'd do that. Yeah. Hayley Jane Winklebottom.
Yeah, it's a nice name.
Mrs. Winklebottom. Is there anybody listening
that hates their name? Like
really, really hates it. And have you acted
on it? Have you changed or did you go by something
different? Sam Neill, actor,
has a book out and has revealed that at age
11, he hated his name
so much. Nigel. Nigel.
He changed his name to Sam.
We want to know if you hate your name.
Yeah. Maybe you've changed it.
Maybe you hate your name and you're looking for new suggestions.
Nancy, good morning.
Oh, good morning.
Nancy. I was expecting
you to be 80.
Oh, no, not quite. Why do you hate Nancy? There was a you to be 80.
No, not quite.
Why do you hate Nancy?
There was a Nancy in Stranger Things and she was the cool girl.
She was the cool girl.
Oh, okay. The hot young thing.
So that might give the name of another, you know, another go.
Yeah.
Yeah, you never know.
Have you always hated Nancy?
I have.
Do you go by anything else?
Nan?
Oh, God, no.
That's worse.
I made it worse.
That's worse.
That's worse.
And my parents didn't give any of us a middle name,
so we've got no choices.
No middle names.
No.
That's the fun name to pick because you can be a bit silly.
I'm a big Nancy Sinatra fan, so I've always loved the name Nancy.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's so sweet. I mean, at least it always loved the name Nancy. Aww.
That's so sweet. I mean, at least it's not a name that people can mispronounce, right?
Or misspell. Nanky.
Oh, you'll be surprised. Oh, really?
Nanky.
Nanchy. Nanchy, thank
you so much for your call. Daryl
Dazza. Dazza.
You hate your name.
I do. I really hate it. Wait, your name. I do.
I really hate it.
Wait, hang on.
Hands up if you're expecting a male then.
Yep.
Sorry, are you a boy?
No, there's a famous... No, definitely not a boy.
What's the famous Daryl Hannah?
Yeah.
Daryl Hannah, that's a famous actress.
I've never met a female Daryl.
What's the story behind the name? I've only met one other female Daryl, and she was very old.
But my dad was a guy that liked to get around back in his day.
And I had six girls, and I was the youngest,
so I got stuck with the boy's name.
He just wanted a Daryl, and you were it.
He wanted a boy from the get-go, but he got five girls
and then I was the lucky one.
So he tried to make you a boy.
Right.
All my sisters have nice, pretty girl names.
Oh, Daryl.
Were you the last cab out the ranks?
I was.
You're just going to call the youngest a boy's name
and hope for the best.
Wow.
So do you use a nickname or do you just rock a Daryl?
So it depends who's talking to me, really.
Some friends call me Daryl.
Like, my closest friends and their kids call me Dazza.
And work calls me Dee.
Dee.
Yeah, like, Dee would be nice.
Dee's good.
Daryl, amazing.
Thank you.
Sweet, Dee.
Some messages and so many.
I am Anne

Hated it because it sounded like Louise
The collective noun for lice
Who knew?
Who knew?
She held a party for her friends and family when she was 14
to announce a rebrand to Grace.
Oh, Grace is cute.
She loves it.
Hard launch.
Louse.
Okay.
I didn't know louse was the collective noun of lice.
No, neither.
When you get de-loused.
Oh, yeah, de-lousing station.
Yeah, okay.
You get rid of the louse.
Okay.
My name is Bill.
I was skiing in France.
I got a private lesson, and the teacher said, what's your name?
I said, Bill, and he said, that's not the name.
That's what you get in the post.
I will call you Jean-Paul.
Oh!
Oh, my God, stop all this.
On the slopes, French flirting.
Oh, my God.
Oh, Jean-Paul.
Oh, no, it won't read that one out.
Yeah, it read that.
The top one?
The Greek one?
Oh, no.
Yeah, dodge that one.
I had my name as a kid.
It's Jolene.
Everyone used to sing that song to me.
Oh, yeah.
The Dolly Parton song.
Now I just go by Jo.
Yeah, imagine if, like, your name was the name in like a pop song.
Well, we've got a JoLynn at work and anytime she walks by, I do say.
You do say JoLynn.
Begging of you.
Please don't.
Please don't take my man.
My name's Lana.
I don't mind it, but yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's not bad.
That's not.
It's just if you read it backwards.
Oh, yeah, yeah, true.
Backwards.
Oh, yeah, true.
My maiden name was Curry.
I couldn't wait to get married.
Oh, yeah, there's a few Curries.
There's a few Curries.
That's not a right last name, isn't it?
What were their first and middle names?
Mild and medium.
Yeah, mild and medium.
And hot.
Do people want to know if Fletch is just your stage name?
Or if your mates call you Fletch?
That's my last name.
That's my last name.
Yeah, but all your friends call you Fletch nowadays.
Yeah.
Only Carl when you're in trouble.
When I'm in trouble, yeah.
And your mum.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
Say what just happened in think the producer's going to
This just
We were about to talk about AI
But Carwain and
She was ready to cancel someone
She was ready to cancel
She was ready to cancel
What was this on
Was this on
One of the morning TV
AM or one news
Breakfast
On breakfast
No no no
I'd like to clarify
There's a banner headline
I just thought we didn't use
This word anymore in general
Scrolling
A scrolling ticker along the bottom
What did it say?
No, Carlin said to us
Excuse me guys
I didn't think we were using the word midget anymore
And to which I said
No, absolutely not
We certainly don't use that word midget anymore
Little person
Or nothing
Or just
hello, how are you? How's your day? Exactly.
Hey Roger, how are you mate? Exactly.
So Carlin's ready.
She's about to cancel Maddie McLean.
I'm like, read that to me in context.
And it said, who was it?
Steve. I don't know, someone.
Craig's. 10th New Zealand title.
10th New Zealand midget title.
Stop cars.
I just think
we don't use that word in general.
Do you know, in marching,
they changed it a few years ago
because it was,
we're under 12s, under 16s,
seniors, masters.
But it used to be
midgets, juniors, seniors, masters.
And midgets just meant under 12s.
Right.
And they still use it
in some sporting terms.
But not in the way
that you were using it, Carly.
I wasn't using it. Wow. But not in the way that you were using a car well. I wasn't using it.
But to clarify,
sporting terms, okay.
Anything else, no good.
Midget car racing, midget cars, speed cars,
it's Australia or New Zealand.
It's a term for, yeah, right. It's a class of racing cars
in Australia. We could probably update that.
I'm glad we cleared that up.
What are we doing?
AI.
Dude.
It's scary.
I'm not into it at all.
It's wrong.
I know.
I've resisted.
I have resisted.
I gave him my login, so it's done.
I'm done.
I'm done.
Anything I've ever done with that Gmail account now?
You're done.
It's out in there.
It's in Skynet.
It's in the machine.
But it's insane.
Like, I don't quite
know how to explain it
until somebody's, you've played with it.
Because Ross Boss has been on this for a long time, but he's
been through all of them. He was on ChatGPT
like last year, and now it's up
to ChatGPT 4 or something. 5?
I think 5, yeah.
4? But 5's coming? So it's evolving. out. Yeah, a four, but five's coming.
So it's evolving.
Yeah.
And it's getting better
and better and better.
And yeah,
you just can ask it
to do anything.
So a couple of stories
over the weekend
because I feel like
every day there's a story.
Every day,
journalists are all over this.
Italy banning it,
looking at banning it.
Yeah.
It's too powerful.
And a woman in England
got a parking ticket,
60 pounds,
and she was like,
oh,
I'll just pay it
because I can't be bothered
writing a letter.
It's too hard,
time consuming.
And then she was like,
oh,
chat GTP.
So she puts in the details
and it spits out
this huge page
that sounds like
a lawyer's written in.
So all you do
is you've got to get me
out of a parking ticket.
Yeah,
give the details and send it away, and they let her off.
She got out of it, and it took her all of a minute
for her to put in these details and email it away.
Crazy.
So it'll do that.
But, like, for example, just this morning,
I typed, write me an Irish pub sing-along song about fruit.
Thinking that that might stump it.
I knew it wasn't going to stump it.
I don't think anything can stump this.
It won't do rude things because Sharda and I were playing with it
because I was showing her how it worked and she's like,
I'm going to get her to write a poem about my friends.
So she just put in their names.
Write me a poem about my friends here and their names.
And then spat it out.
And I was like, that's insane.
So we were like mucking around and then we did something
and I was like, make it filthy.
Yeah.
And it was like, I don't do that.
I was like, you prude.
You prude.
Is there an adults only chat GTP4 that you can sign up for?
Yes, probably.
Did you get a song?
Yep.
Oh, the apples are juicy and the pears are sweet.
The berries are bursting with flavour so neat.
We love our fruits.
Yes, we do indeed.
Come and sing with us and let your heart be freed.
Do-do-do-do-do-do.
Oh, fruity, fruity, how we love to eat.
Dun-da-dun.
From the orchards to the market, so many to greet.
Dun-da-dun.
Raise your glass.
Let's have a cheer for the delicious fruits that we hold so dear.
Amazing. Amazing.
Wow.
And then I said, make it cuter.
That changed it to, oh, fruity, fruity, how we love to munch from the orchards to the table.
What a scrumptious bunch.
That is cute.
People have been, like, using it to write Taylor Swift songs, eh?
Why am I not using it to write my Blended Comedy for your show?
And just keep saying, make it funnier.
Make it funnier.
Make it funnier.
Make it funnier.
Make it funnier.
Have you still not written your comedy show?
Like literally
you're telling everybody
to buy tickets
TBC
Nah I'm pretty good
I'm pretty good
Write me a quick joke about
any
name it
Kiwi fruit
Kiwi fruit
Cause I'm halfway through my
By the way
have you tried to
This is TGPT
Why is this guy asking
so much about fruit?
Oh the red ones
Yeah I've got the red ones
Why did the Kiwi
get into a fight with the banana?
Why?
Because the banana thought he was trying to peel them.
That sucked.
Make it funny.
I'm going to promise people a funny show
and get them to spend their money
on coming to my comedy fair show,
Ailments, 9th to 13th of May,
and I'm going to tell them that rubbish joke.
Why did the Kiwi blush?
Why? Because he saw the banana peel. No, you can't tell them that. Why did the kiwi blush? Why?
Because he saw the banana peel.
No.
A lot on the banana here.
I'm going to say leave out the banana.
Got it.
Here's a new one.
Why did the kiwi quit his job at the orchard?
Why?
Because he couldn't get a raise and he felt totally unpeeled.
Oh my God, he loved peeling.
Anything fruit is very heavy on the peel.
More to fruit than on the peel.
There's more to fruit than just the peel.
Make it about how many seeds it has.
Sure thing.
Why did the kiwi go to the eye doctor?
Because it had too many seeds and couldn't see straight.
That's not funny.
It's quick, though.
It's quick, isn't it?
Yeah.
You're right. That was a bit of a stretch. How about this one? Why did the kiwi break up with the funny. Why? It doesn't make sense. It's quick, isn't it? Yeah. You're right.
That was a bit of a stretch.
How about this one?
Why did the Kiwi break up with the watermelon?
Why? Because it was tired of all the seeds in the relationship.
What does it say?
Leave out the seeds.
For God's sake, leave out the seeds.
Make it political.
I mean, to be honest, I would...
Leave out the seeds and make it political.
If anything, I would leave a watermelon in a relationship because of all the seeds. What if it was a seedless watermelon? So would I. I'd stay with it, probably. Leave out the seeds and make it political. I would, I would leave a watermelon in a relationship
because of all the seeds.
What if it was a seedless watermelon?
So would I.
I'd stay with it probably.
Leave out the seeds
and make it political.
That would be the love of my life.
Why did the kiwi run for office?
Why?
Because it wanted to make
the fruit basket great again.
Oh.
Now it's pro-Trump.
Are you pro-Trump?
This is the thing,
you can have a conversation with it.
Are you pro-Trump?
As an AI language model, I don't have personal beliefs,
opinions or affiliations.
Yes, you do.
You're going to take over the world.
Don't lie.
It's wild, isn't it?
Yeah.
I mean, I wouldn't be unhappy if this just didn't develop,
this thing, and we all just left it behind.
We can't stop scratching.
This is not going to end well for us, all of us.
It's not going to end well.
I don't like that.
But if we're getting out of parking tickets and getting this great humour,
maybe we should keep it around.
Why did the post-it note break up with the scotch tape?
Why?
Because he wasn't into sticking around anymore.
Not bad.
Because post-it notes come off.
Scotch tape.
Yeah.
More adhesive.
It can do better. Play ZM's Fletchford and Ailey.
Play ZM.
There is a surf club, my, in Terrigal, New South Wales.
Terrigal?
When I saw the story on Saturday, I thought, well, April Fool's.
Classic.
Yeah.
And then I saw all the-
Oh, there was some shocking April Fool's, wasn't there?
I don't know why companies bother.
Oh, politicians?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
No offense, National Party, but don't try to be relatable like that.
Please.
Just promise us all tax cuts.
Just like, yeah.
Just promise us all tax cuts.
I just want free stuff.
Anyway, so these guys, it's serious.
It's actually real.
Yeah, it is.
So there was a woman who was a member of this swimming club,
of this surf club, sorry,
and she received a letter saying that she had breached one of their rules
and it's a nudity policy.
And it was because she had been naked in the changing rooms.
And then a sign
in the club that they've
just put up within the last few months,
right, so she probably wasn't aware of this,
says, please shower in your swimming costume
and change with your towel around you.
So they've said
it is a no nudity.
Nudity is not acceptable in these changing rooms.
And it's changing, but you're changing.
Yeah.
Man, when I was a kid and I was part of a swim club,
just everything was out.
Does it say how old she is?
Because, you know, old mates love,
they don't care because they're so old.
They just flop it all out and they just don't care.
Whereas, like, younger people are a bit more,
like, probably use the towel a bit more.
Yeah, probably. It doesn't say how old she is, no. But she's like probably use the towel a bit more.
Yeah, probably.
It doesn't say how old she is.
No, but she's an adult.
She's a grown woman.
Yeah.
And everyone was like, this is kind of promoting body shaming by making the naked body.
I don't know.
Yeah, I thought we were. I thought we were sort of moving forward from that.
I mean, it's just a body.
But so did they say why?
Well, they said because there's changing rooms rooms are shared with people of all ages.
Right.
And it's like they can't have any control over if a young person's in there or an old person.
So if they just have no nudity, then, you know, a kid's not going to cop an eyeful.
But that was the best bit.
You know, when you're a kid, it's like you sort of, that's how you discovered what different bodies looked like.
You know, I'm like serious.
When you'd be in the change room, you'd be like, huh, she's got big ones.
Right.
She's got a floppy bum.
I always got changed in the corner after the hot pools and you try to get changed real quick,
but your wet feet would get caught on your undies and then you'd be like.
Popping around and then your wet feet.
Trying to get it up, your wet Popping around and then your wet feet. Yes.
I don't want to try to get it up, your wet leg,
and it's rolling at the top and you're like, blah.
Or you get to the top and you've got to, like, rearrange everything.
Or you're trying to, like, get changed on your slides or jandals.
Oh, yes.
Or on the seat so you don't touch the wet floor. God forbid you should have jeans to get back into and your wet legs,
which is like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Because I always wonder this when I'm at Les Mills getting changed.
If there's a moment of nudity, I don't want to toot my own horn.
I'm kind of a big deal in New Zealand.
Well, it's a you thing.
So I always wonder if people will see me and be like,
that's Sprouse Baps, you know?
Right.
I've seen Hayley Sprouse Baps.
The next time the ad comes on
For the great
Kiwi bake off
Did I get it right
You did
Well I did the first time
Right now it's the great
New Zealand cooking show
No it's really not
The New Zealand biscuit show
Yeah that one
Cakes and slices
Hooray
Galore
With Hayley Sproul
They'll know what I look like
They'll be like
The ad will come on
And they'll look to their partner
Or friends
And be like
Hey
I saw her boobs at the gym.
Yeah.
Not bad.
All right.
Yeah.
I was still in character there.
I wasn't personally commenting on that.
Are you a fully nude changer
or do you use the towel?
I try to own it
but I use the towel a little bit.
Do you remember when I had
that massive pimple on my butt?
You know, and I was like,
it hurts so much.
Yeah, we didn't see it.
Imagine people copying an eyeful of them being like, she's got a real pimply on my butt. You know, and I was like, it hurts so much. Yeah, we didn't see it. Imagine people copying an eyeful of them being like,
she's got a real pimply ass.
Oh, that reminds me when the ad comes on.
I saw her ass very pimply.
I think you're about to say, oh, that reminds me.
I'm also.
Also dealing with some.
No, I don't know.
I don't believe so.
I don't know.
Pimples on my bottom.
Okay, good.
Yeah, no.
Well, mine cleared up.
It's a smooth bottom.
I sort of imagine it as really milky. My bottom. Yeah. Okay, good. Yeah, no. Well, mine cleared up. It's a smooth bottom. I sort of imagine it as really milky.
My bottom.
Yeah.
Very milky.
Very milky.
Hasn't seen the sun.
Very little sun exposure.
Play.
ZDM's Fletchvorn and Hayley.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Today's fact of the day is the opposite of copyright is
copy left.
Really? It is a legal technique of granting
freedoms over
copies of copyrighted works
with the requirement that the same rights be preserved in derivative works.
What?
So it's basically saying this thing I've created is not copyrighted,
it's copylefted.
Feel free to use it.
So it's like free license.
Royalty free.
Royalty free.
Effectively, yes. Like classical licence. Royalty free. Royalty free. Effectively, yes.
Like classical music.
But it is acknowledged that it is somebody's.
Can we just pause and talk about your jeans situation?
Oh yeah, they've got really bad.
The hole is so big I can now see the whole knee and the bend.
Yeah, because it's not ripped anymore.
A large section of fabric came out.
That's so offensive.
You'd probably go to jail in Saudi Arabia for that.
Do you want to see my thigh?
It is.
It's not just your knee hanging out.
It's your lower thigh.
Why don't you just go and buy new jeans?
You described my arse before as you imagined it was milky.
It's that milky.
I think it's milkier.
Because you can see my upper thigh through the rips just below the pockets how milky that milky is. I think it's milkier.
Because you can see my upper thigh through the rips just below the pockets.
Do you have a hairy bum?
I don't imagine you do.
I had it lasered.
Oh, that's right. I would have had it.
I did have a hairy bottom.
Yeah.
It's milky.
Milky smooth.
Can you please buy new jeans?
Just go get some cheap ones.
Yeah, I'm going to go get some cheap ones.
When?
I don't know.
Today.
I can't be bothered.
Because it means I have to stop and I have to go to a store.
I can't be looking at these milky thighs all day.
I know, it's a lot.
What if I did it?
You know, it would be Shunderpon.
Shunderpon?
Shunderpon.
Froundpon?
It would be Shunderpon.
It would be Shunderpon.
That's that singer, isn't it?
Shunderpon.
No, that was Rihanna's first song.
Shunderpon.
Shunderponder replay.
Shunderponder with the special guest Shunderpon.
So yeah, copyleft is just the opposite of copyright.
It's an open source license.
Right.
But it's acknowledging that somebody invented this.
Right.
And to them I pay homage, but no money.
But you can have it.
But you can have it and you can use it.
So when it was first like said.
Yeah.
It was in a 1976 piece of artwork
and it said, copy left, all wrongs reserved,
because it says copyright all rights reserved.
So they said copy left, all wrongs reserved.
And somebody, they were approached, this artist, Le Shea Wang,
the Pablo Alto said it, and they were approached and said,
do you want to put a copyright on this?
No, you've missed the entire point.
Oh, so they made it up.
It wasn't...
No, yeah, well, that was the first use of it,
and then it became a term.
Does it have a symbol?
Yes.
Like the copyright has a C?
So the C in the middle, it's a reversed C.
It's the C facing the other way.
Isn't that the Comedy Central logo? It looks a lot like it, except that's two Cs. That's one big C with a little C. Oh. It's the C facing the other way. Oh. Isn't that the Comedy Central logo?
It looks a lot like it except that's two Cs.
That's one big C with a little C inside it.
Right.
Yeah.
Okay, that's fascinating.
A little C inside a circle.
So it was an artist that made it up.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Good Lord.
There's a lot of lawyer jargon.
I might chuck this in AI and get it to break it down for me.
Explain this to me in layman's terms.
Simplify this, please.
In two sentences.
Might be able to do that.
So today's fact of the day
is there is an opposite
of copyright.
It's called copy left.
Fact of the day,
day, day, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley.
At the weekend, I was on Friday night, I said to shut up,
but a real hankering for an adventure movie from my childhood.
Beautiful.
And to show the girls.
We showed the girls the Goonies last year.
That rules, by the way. I don't believe there's too much showed the girls the Goonies last year. That rules, by the way.
I don't believe there's too much problematic behaviour in the Goonies,
apart from making the fat kid do the truffle shuffle at the gate.
Probably not.
We'll put that in today.
I know.
Well, take a risk.
Get a little bit of chat, a bit of Hollywood buzz.
Yeah.
A bit of fat shaming at the start of your movie.
Classic fat shaming.
So I said, I feel like we should start watching the Indiana Jones trilogy.
Oh, yeah.
Indiana Jones, Raiders of the Lost Ark is the first one.
Temple of Doom.
Yeah.
Last Crusade's the final one.
Yeah.
In the original trilogy.
Great films.
Great films.
I remember watching those young as a kid.
We started talking about which one to watch and we settled on Raiders of the Lost Ark
because Temple of Doom is the one
when the tribesman speaks the language
and puts his hands on their chest
and delves his hand through their chest cavity
and pulls out their beating heart.
Oh, okay.
And that always really scared me as a kid.
Yeah.
Because my brother would hold me down
and he'd put his hand and he'd start doing the chant.
And I'd be like, he's going to go, ah, ah.
So we decided on Raiders of the Lost Ark.
And it's also the first one.
Yeah.
It's where we meet our titular hero, Indiana Jones.
I think it's the best one.
Who was supposed to be called Indiana Smith right up until they were about to start filming.
And kind of a cool name that I like from one of the reasons our daughter's called it.
They're making a new one and they're de-aging him
with technology.
It looks really good.
Crystal Skull
wasn't so great.
That was the Shia LaBeouf.
Oh, you.
I didn't bother with that.
He played his son.
But so he's...
And there are Nazis
in this one.
Nazis are back.
There's always Nazis.
Yeah, they've got
the treasures,
aren't there?
The archaeology.
There's always...
Nazis love treasures.
They do.
They love treasures.
Man, those Nazis,
they can't get enough of those treasures.
So we decided on Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Absolutely iconic opening scene.
Has it aged well?
Because I haven't seen it for probably since my childhood.
Not too bad.
I don't think, yeah.
Most of the special effects, apart from when they opened the Ark of the Covenant,
most of the special effects were miniatures or real rhymes.
Yeah, because they actually did them not CGI.
Yeah.
The amazing opening sequence of the running from the boulder.
Yeah, but that's definitely Paula Steyeran, isn't it?
I don't think it was a big boulder.
I just don't think boulders come that round.
Yeah, no.
Well, Modeki boulders, but they're quite small.
They're a lot smaller.
Try getting one of those to Hollywood.
Yeah.
Oh, my God, the shipping costs.
It would cost you a small fortune.
I don't know, tons.
But it was going well until at the end
when they're going to open the Ark of the Covenant
and everything starts going a bit ghosty and swirly
and if they're looking at it, they melt like a candle.
Oh, yes.
Indiana Jones is tight.
Spoiler alert if you haven't watched a movie that's 42 years old.
So old.
1981 that movie came out.
Wow, seriously?
Yeah.
Yikes.
Nothing will make you feel older than when you say to your kids,
this came out a year before I was born.
And they're like, oh, my God.
The olden days.
And then we started it and they're like, it's in colour.
Oh, God.
Whack.
Pretty good quality too.
Yeah.
But, yeah, when it starts spinning around
and Indiana Jones says,
don't look,
whatever you do,
don't look.
And my kids were like,
ah,
just like not looking.
I was like,
he's just talking to the woman
that's in the movie with him
and they're like,
no,
we're not looking.
The ghost swerves
and the falcon lady is like,
you scared them.
I think it was maybe
a little,
a little soon.
But then kids now,
the special effects are so good.
It wouldn't just have a guy melting like a candle.
It would actually have a guy melting.
Yeah.
Like full blown.
What, how old are your girls again?
10?
11 and 8.
11 and 8.
Yeah.
So you reckon maybe a bit early for Indiana Jones.
Maybe, but then I thought, you know, your next one,
your Temple of Doom with the da-da-da-da.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then there's a couple of bits of Last Crusade
that could be a little bit scary.
I watched Blair Witch Project on my 13th birthday.
No, absolutely not.
I watched that as an adult and it was a big no-no.
Yeah, well, that was 20 years ago and I'm like still...
Have you found a little pile of tied up sticks?
Because there was all that buzz when it came out that it was real.
It was real, yeah.
And everybody bought into it.
It was the first kind, the movie that was filmed on the Handycam.
We found this footage.
Found footage.
The marketing of it was very, very well done.
It was so well done.
Terrifying.
But we want to know this morning,
what film did you watch perhaps a little too early?
Yeah, maybe-
Jaws, you know, my father-in-law was a shocker
because my mother-in-law would work nights as a nurse. Yeah, maybe. Jaws, you know, my father-in-law was a shocker because my
mother-in-law would work nights as a nurse
and he was just like, well, I like Jaws
so I'm assuming my six-year-old daughter's
going to like Jaws.
And they watched Jaws when they were kids and then they were like
screaming when they went to the beach. We're not going
near it. We're not going near it.
Get in there! Sex!
That's too early to watch Jaws.
She watched all sorts. She's like, oh, yeah, I watched the...
I mean, not too early because it's...
I would have been scared of the Rocky Horror Picture Show
for just like the laboratory vibe and the...
Yeah.
But they watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show
when they were like five
and used to reenact the whole thing.
Wow.
Were you watching Beetlejuice
the moment that they stretched their faces?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Terrifying.
Terrifying.
We were going to watch Beetlejuice. That was when we opened their faces. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Terrifying. Terrifying. We were going to watch Beetlejuice.
That was when we opened it up and started scanning through to find a movie.
I was like, are they Beetlejuice?
But I even remember as a kid, like, when he goes,
and all the features come out of the face.
Yeah, yeah.
So good.
A friend's message.
And once, we were nine, we watched Once Were Warriors at my friend's place.
Oh, brutal.
Nine.
No, no, no.
That is an adult film.
Okay, we want to know what movie as a kid
you saw too young, too early.
Yeah.
Maybe to this day you still remember
how scary and scared it makes you feel.
James, what was that movie?
The Goonies.
What was scary about The Goonies?
We watched it.
No, the girls weren't scared.
Dude, it's sloth or whatever his name is.
But the horrible, disfigured guy that's tied to the chair.
Yeah, but he's the hero in the end and it teaches us to overlook.
You know, we can't judge a book by the cover.
Rocky Ram!
And then he's all like drops and he's like.
Yeah, but he was the hero.
He was being tortured by his main mom.
How old were you, James?
Well, my dad got a VCR and it came with a free copy of The Goonies
and I thought it was the bomb.
And I started watching it, but I couldn't get past it.
And I've heard, you know, the Who's New Girls.
I didn't know that was from The Goonies for like 25 years.
Right.
Because I never got there.
It was horrible.
And then after Dada won the Oscar, I was like,
oh, I'm going to revisit that stuff.
You know, that's the same thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
A classic from the childhood.
Yeah, indeed.
James, thanks for your call.
Let's try Charlie.
Charlie, what movie and how old?
It was The Exorcist. Oh, yeah. Let's try Charlie. Charlie, what movie and how old? It was
The Exorcist.
Oh, yeah. And I was 13.
Man, because the young
girl, when she's
possessed, she says some terrible things.
Terrible things.
It's horrendous. Even to this day,
I'm still traumatised by it.
That was another one of the ones that my
father-in-law let his children watch when they were young.
I mean, it's a great film.
Great film.
Charlie, thank you.
Message is in.
Oh, my God.
We started watching Boogie Nights when I was 11.
Mum fell asleep on the couch and there's 11-year-old me.
Boogie Nights.
That's the famous scene where there's a prosthetic limb.
Yes.
In the past.
It is limb-sized. pants. It is limb sized.
Yes.
It is limb sized.
The Witches
Roald Dahl's The Witches
the original thing.
That was scary.
That was scary.
They pull off the skin
they turn into the
they turn the boy
into the mouse.
That was a little bit
scowey.
Chainsaw Massacre
when I was about
nine years old
at a private house.
Yes.
Chainsaw Massacre
a classic. When I was 13 I watched Silence of a private house. Yes, Chainsaw Massacre,
a classic.
When I was 13,
I watched Silence of the Lambs with my older sister and mum.
I don't think mum knew
what the movie was about
until it was too late.
Haunted me for years.
Mum can turn that off.
Yeah,
but mum just thought
it was probably
a cute movie about lambs.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Lambs, shush.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A few messages
about arachnophobia.
Oh,
no. Which the worst part was hearing that the spider was actually based on the Yeah, yeah, yeah. A few messages about arachnophobia. Oh, yeah.
Which the worst part was hearing that the spider was actually based on the... Avondale.
Katsupo, the Avondale spider.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's because they thought it was big, but it was harmless.
Keep your texts coming in.
9696, 0800, Darls at M.
What movie did you watch too young?
Play ZM's Fletch Vodden Ailey. Play ZM. I was asking you this morning
how old you were
when you watched a movie
you probably shouldn't
have been watching
yeah
some great stories
coming in
someone's the same age as me
because they just
messaged in saying
Pet Sematary was on
over two nights
when I was at Intermediate
I was at Intermediate
when Pet Sematary was Stephen King's Pet Sematary it was on a Sunday nights when I was an intermediate. Wow, yeah. I was an intermediate when Pet Sematary
was Stephen King's Pet Sematary.
It was on a Sunday night
and a Monday night.
Yes.
So this is what they used to do
when movies were too long.
They'd split them up
and you'd watch one on Sunday night
and then you'd go to school
the next day
and anyone who hadn't seen it
was like a loser.
A loser whose parents
made them go to bed early.
Yep.
How embarrassing.
So I would just
on the bus to school
if I hadn't watched it
I'd be like, well, you know, what are we talking about today? What's been broken in half? Yep. How embarrassing. So I would just, on the bus to school, if I hadn't watched it,
I'd be like, well, you know, what are we talking about today?
What's been broken in half?
Yep.
Well, that's it.
Okay, well, give me the rundown on what happened on the first night.
Yeah, there were always, there were heaps of Stephen King ones that were broken up and they were always scary.
The one where they ate time?
Yeah.
What was it?
Ate time?
Yeah, the plane slipped out of time and these monsters, eight times.
But Pet Sematary was always horrible.
Pet Sematary was the worst.
Let's start with Gina.
Gina, how old when you watched this movie?
It wasn't me.
It was my nephew.
He was seven years old when he watched Titanic.
Oh, okay.
A lot of death and a little bit of sex.
Yeah. Actually, I think A lot of death and a little bit of sex. Yeah.
Actually, I think it was traumatic for him,
the actual scene when it's sinking,
when everyone's falling off and breaking their legs.
Boom.
That phase.
I've never seen it, but I've seen the boom
when someone hits the big propeller.
Ian Vaughan has still never seen Titanic.
It's too scary for him.
Yeah, I know.
It's absurd.
No, he's stubborn.
He's stubborn.
I'm terrified of the class system.
I just can't live with the fact that those workers were under there.
They were locked down.
I'm going to give you a spoiler alert.
They don't make it out.
No.
Listen to Gina laughing.
They closed the door.
Gina, thanks for your call.
Let's go to Sarah.
Sarah, what movie and how old?
It was the original Scream,
and I just looked it up, and it came out in 1996.
I would have been eight.
Oh, no.
That's terrifying.
Well, that was a slasher.
That's a slasher movie.
Yeah, my uncle and mum were watching,
and I snuck into the lounge,
and I hid under this, like, keyboard piano thing we had,
and they didn't see me, and I totally regretted that decision.
But the worst part of it was is that the first Halloween
after that movie came out,
that's what everybody went to Halloween at.
Oh, yeah.
It was the scream costume and that mask.
Yeah.
To this day, as an adult, I'm 34,
that mask still scares the crap out of me.
I don't trust anybody wearing that mask still scares the crap out of me. The only way to fix it is watch Scary Movie.
I don't trust anybody wearing that mask.
Yes.
Watch the Spoof movie.
Watch Scary Movie.
The original one.
So I haven't actually seen any of the other scents.
And even when Scary Movie came out and they had that replicated in that movie,
I don't like Scary Movie.
Wazzup.
Wazzup.
Thanks, Nicole.
Shawnee, what movie and how old?
My sister and I would have been about 8 and 10
and my mum made us watch Dante's Peak.
Now, that's Pierce Brosnan?
Fantastic.
Yep, Pierce Brosnan.
But when the grandma goes into the water with the boat
and her legs melt off and all that crap, it's just not...
Oh, yeah, because it's a volcano.
Yeah, okay. There was a whole lot of movies around that time. Tw's just not... Oh, yeah, because it's a volcano. It's a volcano. Yeah, okay.
There was a whole lot of movies around that time.
Twister came out at around the same time.
Yeah.
And then didn't Mount Ororopehu erupt for a while
when it was kind of pink, that area?
It was great movie marketing.
Back when movie studios weren't afraid
to trigger volcanic eruptions and promote a volcano.
Yeah, they'd move tectonic plates to market their movies.
Oh, wouldn't they?
Shawnee, thank you.
Some messages in.
Someone said it was the Langoliers, that miniseries.
Yes, that's what it was called.
The Langoliers are the things that ate time.
Oh.
You've got to look it up.
We've talked about it on the show before.
And I was terrified of it.
But then when I went back and watched the CGI,
I was like, oh my God, they're meatballs.
I feel like that's kind of where Lost got its idea for time.
Maybe have been influenced.
Yeah, maybe influenced by that.
Somebody else said, we watched Wizard of Oz and it was okay.
And so we thought, let's watch the sequel to Wizard of Oz, Return to Oz.
And there were things called wheelers and they gave them nightmares.
Now these were like men on rollerblades effectively.
But they had them on their hands as well.
And they had like stilts to extend their hands.
And I just looked at the photo and I was like, oh, they were creepy. And they had them on their hands as well, and they had, like, stilts to extend their hands, and that was, I just looked at the photo,
and I was like, oh, they were creepy,
and they had, like, masked faces.
So they were carnival performers.
Scary, scary carnival performers.
Yeah, okay.
Yes, correct.
Okay, I'm just getting some Indiana Jones.
Apparently, chronologically,
Temple of Doom comes before Raiders of the Lost Ark.
That makes sense now.
But they were released in a different order.
I watched Step Brothers.
We sat down as siblings to watch it.
I was nine.
That was the start of my foul language.
But it was Will Ferrell did Alf.
And so Mum's like, he does wonderful films for children.
Put that on and Mum's going to go and polish a full bottle of Pinot Gris here.
Jurassic Park when I was six.
But that's the thing.
My nephews watched that when they were four
and they were like, wicked when that dinosaur
ate that man whole.
Oh my God, no, terrifying.
They were like, that one's cool.
He deserved it.
He was a bad guy.
I was like, no, the first guy the T-Rex ate,
wasn't he just like the accountant or something?
Yeah.
The guy that gets the squirt, Newman from Seinfeld,
really squirts in the face, he's the bad guy.
That dinosaur did everybody a favor.
Oh my God, we watched Basic Instinct
with the babysitter
when I was 10
