Hello and welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast, brought to you by McCafé. Grab yourself a delicious barista-made coffee for only $4. ZM. Hit music. Lives here. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. You know, like we were a team of 5 million, but we needed that tugboat to put us in the

right direction. Pull us through. Yeah, okay. Are they not buying Ashley Bloomfield? No. Asher reads the news, just heard me singing. Right, okay. Yeah, I was walking just before she did the news, I walked around the corner and I was singing that song.

Talk to me like lovers do. I don't know why it was in my head, but isn't that a great song? Isn't it? Well, Friday flashback maybe? Oh, yeah, it's my turn. Your pick today.

Oh, damn it. Okay. All right, it's coming up at eight. Joining us on the show today, the Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern. Our Prime Minister. Our Prime Minister. She'll be on the show 10 to 8 this morning. We might have been talking to Prime Minister of Israel.

Which is? Sharon. Maybe not anymore, but it used to be. Benjamin Netanyahu. Only because you saw my Google. Now, what a name. What a beautiful name. I wish my name was Vaughn Netanyahu.

What a beautiful name. Because you've got plain old Smith. Smith. She's pretty vanilla ice cream. Smith. Vaughn Netanyahu. Yes. Yep. Vaughn Netanyahu. Yeah. Great name. Alright, so yeah,

probably going to start a Honda show soon. I've just remembered you've cost me money. Why? You've cost me money. Fitch. Why? You've cost me money. Fletch. What? How's it cost you money? Oh, Fletch has cost me money. Well, shall we deal with it?

I think we should probably deal with it at some stage this morning. Soon? How much money? Quite a bit of money. Well, I don't know because it wasn't agreed upon. I don't know what's happening. Fletch cost me money. Do we want to be talking about this on air?

This isn't our ongoing battle of who can make more money on the share market. Oh, that's what I thought it was. No, no, it's not that. It's not that. I'm absolutely blitzing Warren. There's not even any competition. He's trading on misery, though. I'm trying to invest in a sustainable future.

And you also put more money into it. It's primarily on percentage returns. Oh, is it? That's how we're comparing our success. All right, well, should we deal with that soon or no? I'll check. Okay, maybe we'll keep this off here. The top six is coming up.

Yes, today's top six. The movies are coming back. Baby! I missed your baby. Hey, baby! The movies are awesome. Like your baby! The movies are coming back.

Baby! And I've got the top six things you missed about the movies. Because, you know, you might have been able to watch movies at home, but it doesn't have the whole theatrical experience,

does it? No. A baby! Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The No. A baby. Fletch has cost me money and I've looked into it further and at the moment it was an undisclosed amount. How have they cost you money? Well, yesterday. Did I give you some bad investing advice? Nope.

Okay. No, I don't take investing advice from you. You should. You're like the Wolf of Wall Street. You're just throwing like 20 bucks on sharesies. Yeah, exactly. But it's fun. I'm Vaughn and Vecco.

That's a weird Michael Douglas movie reference from the 80s. Great is good. And he's the Wolf of Anzac Ave. Didn't you have an AGM that you were invited to for some company because you had shares? Oh yeah, that's weird. Oh yeah, Vaughan had a dollar shares

in a company and they invited me to an AGM. They're like, oh as a shareholder you're entitled to this AGM? I was like, well, food.

Are there biscuits? Yeah. Oh my God. Imagine rocking up and you're just a dollar shares he's an investor. You're going in a suit. Yeah.

Yeah. Rock on in. But it's not investing advice that's cost you. No, it's not investing advice it's cost you. No, it's not. We were asked if we would be interested to duel, to tag team, if you will, influencing for the original Kiwi Dip. This is where you mix up reduced cream with onion soup mix.

I see what's happened. Onion soup and reduced cream, Fletch and Vaughan, two iconic New Zealand duos. I'm guessing they asked. You're the chips. You're great without us. You can't eat the onion dip but you can. Exactly. You shouldn't though.

No, you definitely shouldn't. Good for you. But then we got asked an email form and immediately when I saw it I was like, well we can't do this because this will go against the principles of Fletch hating New Zealand by not liking Wadi's tomato sauce and famously hating the original kiwi dip. It just tastes disgusting. It tastes like wallpaper paste. It's horrible.

We've explained this before. You're eating it as soon as you've mixed it. No. Everyone knows you've got to chill it. So the onion bits reconstitute and it doesn't taste like paste. Yeah, yeah. Even if it goes in the fridge, it's disgusting. I've got no time for it.

You can have those real nice dips, you know, like the basil pesto, the cilantro tomato. Who's eating basil pesto on a chip? Yeah, those aren't chip. That's a cracker and cheese. Yeah. You're weird, man. I had something with blue cheese the other day and I thought, Megan, I must simply tell Megan.

I had blue cheese and something on a cracker. That was an unusual. Was it a pickle? No, it was my Fijoa jam. It was my Fijoa jam. Oh, yeah, that would be nice. Fijoa jam, the stankiest blue cheese you could find, and a cracker.

Well, anyway, I had to email back to the people that wanted us to influence the onion dip, and I said, look, I'm really sorry to say this, but it would be very hypocritical. I've spent the last so many years of my life hating on this dip. I have made a big scene over the years of hating this monstrosity. I've got the email here. Well, you didn't pull any punches. I'm sorry if I've cost you money, but I mean, I could pretend to like it

and we could do a post about it. Oh my God, have some principle. I couldn't do... Have some respect for yourself. I don't think influencers had principles. They don't, but I refuse to let you go down that path. I'll sell out for money. Oh my God, I love this dip.

Have we taken the photos? It's there. No, Fletch, you're live on Instagram. Oh my God, I love this dip. Have we taken the photos? It's a, no, Fletch, you're live on Instagram. Oh my God. Am I still getting paid? Anyway, so why don't you can just transfer me the equivalent of lost. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. As of yesterday afternoon, 50,000 tickets have been sold for the two weekend Super Rugby games. Holy moly.

So in Auckland, Eden Park, the Blues Hurricanes, 34,000 tickets as of yesterday afternoon. And for the Highlanders Chiefs game, 16,000 tickets for that Dunedin home match. So Eden Park can seat 48,000. Forsyth Bar, 22,800. So getting pretty close to selling. Yeah. Eden Park can seat 48,000. Forsyth Bar, 22,800. So getting pretty close to selling. Forsyth Bar is covered, right? That's going to be your,

because I don't know what the weather's looking like in Auckland on Saturday, but when it's a covered stadium, doesn't matter, does it? Doesn't matter, yeah. Okay, cool. And you'd think there'd be walk-ups and more ticket sales today when people hear. That's going to, imagine that feeling like, I mean, I don't even think I've ever been to a super rugby game, been to all Blacks matches. Yeah.

You know who's going to be fizzing? Who? My nan, Marlene. Oh, yeah. She's been missing her sports. She was gutted. She was watching old games, the old Warriors games. The problem is she's been following the Warriors so intently for so long,

she knew the result. She remembered the games. Wow. Would she go to a live game? She's a bit like me. No. I was going to say you should take her. I would love to one day.

But we, yeah, nah. Nah. We're not really crowd people. Right. That's maybe where I get it from. Yeah. We're very similar like that. The only thing I don't like about the live

games is you can't hear the commentator because I need help sometimes. You can get your little earpiece. And then you need the replays and it's much better at home. But then to be honest we've all been locked up and life's been so crazy and strange that a whole stadium of people, I'd actually

probably enjoy that. I think it would be quite exciting. Apparently while we're talking about rugby too, they're investigating whether or not laser beams could be involved in policing offside. Oh, okay. So they shoot a laser beam down the sideline. Well, I don't know. Would it be, it would have to be if it was the offside.

Oh, offside. It would have to be on tracks. Yeah. Running up and down. Would they be invisible lasers? Or would you just be like a red sniper down there? Being like, no, he's not bat five. You get tackled in the line of sight and it goes into your eyeball.

Yeah. No, I'm imagining it would just be, it would have to run along the sideline. Yeah, right. And it would make sure everybody was back. And then they'd be able to measure the offsides. They could use that to see if you put a foot out as well on the sideline. Well, that's the other, I can't believe that hasn't already been. Yeah.

Because, you know, when they hit that little doing, the little foamy doing. Yeah, the what? The pole. The pole. It's not a pole because it's not hard. It goes doing when they hit it. Oh, you mean in the corners. The marker.

Yeah, yeah, the marker. The foamy doing. The foamy doing. So it's whether or not the ball gets down first or that thing gets hit. Why don't they use that thing in cricket where that thing can... No, that thing doesn't matter. It's if you are outside of the line. Like, you can put your arm over the line, but if your foot's in touch, it's fine.

Is it rugby league? You're not allowed to hit that thing before you get the ball down. There's one of them you're not allowed to hit that thing before you get the ball down. You can hit that thing in rugby union.

Or is it league that you can't hit the doink? Hit that doink all the time. What's the point of the doink then? I don't know. It's like, here's the corner. Right. I'd be all for some lasers

and technology. That sounds very exciting. That would be, I guess, just at ground level down the line so if somebody's foot went on it. Yep, you'd know. You could very exciting. So, yeah, that would be, I guess, just at ground level down the line. So if somebody's foot went on it. Yep, you'd know. You could get like those little, you know, those robot vacuum cleaners.

They could run along the sideline, those Roombas. Just put some lasers on those. They're not fast enough. It could make a noise, like when you go through the dairy, when you go over the line. Ding dong. Yeah, yeah, yeah. God, that'd be triggering for every dairy owner that's at the rugby game.

A stadium where ding dong, their head would just be like, yes, hello. Fleshfauna Megan, the podcast, ZM. From the ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. Hey, guys. Movies. Some of them are coming guys. Movies. Some of them are coming back. Cinemas.

Theatre. Yes. The Flex. The old light projector thing. So Hoyts have said they're opening today, all of theirs. Yeah. Hoyts. Some events, right? Not all

events? Yeah, I couldn't find any events that were opening. I think I saw Reading. Oh, okay. So it says, I've just gone to Event Cinemas. Select cinemas opening from Thursday the 18th. Oh, that's next week. So that's next week. 18th of June.

So that's next Thursday. Blenheim, New Plymouth, Palmy, Todonga Crossing and Whangarei. Oh, Reddings looks to be showing some. Okay, good. Please, our opening. Oh, great news for the cinemas. So the top six today,

the top six things you've missed about the movies. Missed about going to the movies. Number six. Yeah, I want to see that. The trip to Greece. Steve Coogan, Rob Brydon. Oh, yeah, right. The top six things you've missed about going to the movies.

Number six. Butter. I say it like this. Butter. It's not really. Is it butter? On the popcorn? It's not really, is it?

The butter. The actual butter would be too much, wouldn't it? Well, what is this butter that they're talking about? Is it margarine? I don't know. They're not margarine our popcorn, are they? It just doesn't feel like butter. But it's delicious.

Why are you raising questions? No, because it just stays with you for too long. The butter. I remember when I went to the cinema in America and they were like, do you want buttered popcorn? And you're like, yeah. And then they go and take your popcorn

over to a squirty bottle and squirt butter on it. I was like, no, no, no, no. Glup, glup, glup. They're like, would you like a gallon of butter with some popcorn kernels? No.

Like they actually give you like a little sieve to fish out the popcorn. Shake off the butter. Like you're working at a fish and chip shop. Popcorn croutons. Hold it above.

Jeez Louise. Number five on the list of the top six things you've missed about the movies. Saying, oh, that looks good. Or, oh, not for me. Loudly. Sure in the trailers. We should go see that. No, that looks good.

I liked him in that other movie. Who's that now? I'll just give it a quick look up. Number four on the list of the top six things you've missed about the movies. Hearing 20 people eat at once. Yeah. Where's that been lately? Unless you're living in like a dorms.

You're never surrounded by people eating that loudly. It's probably going to really annoy us when we go back. Hearing all the popcorn chewing. And the bag rustling. Number three on the list of the top six things you've missed about the movies

are paying $6 for an ice cream that should retail for about $1.50. It's rock hard. Why are their ice creams so rock hard at the movies? Because they're all pre-rolled.

Yeah, I know. If you get an ice cream at a store, they have that scoop in hot water so it rolls and that softens it and gets the whole thing going

but they pre-roll, chop, dip, re-freeze. Oh God, no wonder. You know when you get a tub of ice cream straight out of the freezer that's been there for a while

and it's just like you've got to give it five minutes on the bench. Yeah, okay. Yeah. And then it's a real slippery slope to just having a sloppy got to give it five minutes on the bench. Yeah, okay. Yeah. And then there's a real slippery slope to just having a sloppy

container that'll refreeze with too many crystals. Look, there's a whole science to ice cream. Yeah. And I'll be running a seminar, a webinar this weekend.

Number two on the list of the top six things you've missed about the movies, putting your hand on the ground to pick up your belongings at the end of the movies

and touching something you can't identify. Or even just feeling the carpet. Yeah. Oh, that's sticky. Like a... Is it a...

Well, it feels like an M&M, but it's very soft. Is it a jupe? It is a hairy jupe. Oh, my God. A jupe? They haven't sold these M&M's.

And number one on the list of the top six things you've missed about the movie is sprinting to the bathroom. Oh, that's you. You're terrible. I pick my time.

I'm like, I reckon now is going to be good to go. And then you get back and you're like, what did I miss? What did I miss? Tell me what I missed. It's just a vital part of the plot. Well, tell me. That is today's top six. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, tell me. That is today's top six. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast.

When I read the headline that hackers had posted sensitive Fisher & Paykel appliance starter on the dark web, I thought it was how to get your gentle Annie to sing the national anthem. Because that's a little known fact, is that your Fisher & Paykel washing machine can sing the national anthem. Yeah, and if you do it, you follow the instructions and it might not play the New Zealand national anthem and that means that it wasn't made for this market. Oh, right.

Because I think the American one plays, the ones sent to America play the American national anthem. Right. There's some guys on TikTok, have you seen them? They play the beeps on their washing machine and dryers do songs? How do they do that? I don't know. Because I saw them do the Harry Potter theme. I thought it might be fake.

Oh, don't tell me that. But the guy at the top is probably not fake because all he does is open and shut the door. The guy down the bottom is showing all the talent. This guy is just opening and shutting a door. Yeah. But it wasn't. It was like business information.

Oh, okay. That Fisher & Paykel, they tried to bribe them. Apparently someone who works at Fisher & Paykel opened some malware. Oh, no. And then they got behind it. What is malware? I just know it's bad. Yeah.

It's something that gets installed onto your computer. Yeah, normally because you'd visit a dodgy website. Right. Or you opened it. Or you normally because you'd visit a dodgy website. Right. Or you opened it. Or you opened it or installed something you shouldn't have. And then it's able to access your files and send them back to the hacker. So once that was in there, they got expenditure versus budget spreadsheets, the Chinese business unit report presentation.

I don't know what that means. And the China manufacturing review spreadsheet. Any nudes? Yeah, a couple Manufacturing Review spreadsheet. Any nudes? Yeah, a couple of nudes. Fitcher and Blackall nudes? Like without the covers on? Yeah. Yeah.

A couple of gentle annies. A couple of up skirts on the washing machine, because if you're looking from underneath, you can see the bottom of the barrel. The doors open. Yeah, because if you're going to blackmail someone on the dark web, you've got to have some nudes. Yeah. So if gentle Annie doesn't want her n on the dark web, you've got to have some nudes. Yeah.

So if Gentilani doesn't want her nudes getting out, she'll be paying top dollar. So I don't know where it got to. Yeah. But apparently the same sort of thing happened to Travelex earlier in the year and they wanted $8.5 million. I wonder if more of this will happen with staff working from home. Oh, yeah. A lot of people work

at work and IT systems are really strong and strict and then you go home and you jump on your Wi-Fi on your home computer. I wonder if that'll become more of a thing. Somebody, Peter is his name, he is

in charge of a cyber security situation. He said apparently ransomware gangs were exploiting the COVID situation. It looked like you were getting emails from your company

about COVID-19 or coronavirus, how your company was handling it. And then you click on it and that would install the malware. Wow, jokes on them

because I just delete those COVID emails that were getting straight to me. I just see an update and I'm like, delete. Yeah, and if I ever get hit up a bit, I'll be like, I couldn't use the QR code to scan into work because I thought it was phishing. Did you do the quiz I tagged you in, the Harry Styles quiz?

Would he marry you quiz? No. So I tagged you on Facebook. God, you're useless sometimes. I'm going to do it right now. To work out if Harry Styles would marry you. I knew you'd like it. Can anybody participate? You can do it.

Why wasn't I tagged in it? You don't think I could hook Harry Styles, do you? You've never expressed an interest to marry Harry Styles quite like I have. Megan during the show will just watch Harry Styles videos. That's how I know she's a fan. Right. I hear judgment. Yeah, man. Megan, during the show, will just watch Harry Styles' videos. That's how I know she's a fan.

Right. I hear judgment. Yeah, no. No judgment. Well, hit me with a link. New research has found that a car is broken into every 21 minutes in New Zealand. So whether it's just broken into and or stolen, that counts. So a website has compared police data across New Zealand, 24,416 vehicles broken into or stolen in 2019,

up from just over 21,000 the previous year. So it's looked at where the cars were broken into. The worst offender, Lower Hutt, where one in every 98 registered cars was stolen or broken into last year. That was followed by Palmerston North, Wellington, Napier and Auckland. The safest area for your car, the safest district. So that's not per capita.

And that was Auckland. That's a massive area. Well, yeah. Like one and a half million people. Yeah, crazy. So it even beats those places beat out Auckland, yeah. Napier, Wellington, Palmy before. The safest area for your car,

the Waimate District. Just because I guess there's not as many people maybe. And everybody knows everybody. Yeah, that's true. And plus, if you're going to go on a farm and steal a ute,

you're probably going to get shot. Or actually, the wallabies would probably stop you too. That's true. Yeah, that's true. The Waimate wallabies. According to research, car break-ins typically happen on weekends. And this surprised me.

The most common time being 3 p.m. I thought it would have happened overnight. Yeah, I would have thought it would have been the early hours of the morn. Like your fives. 3 p.m. Yeah. Like broad daylight. Isn't that crazy?

There's lots of traffic too because like school pickup. No, weekends at 3 p.m. Kids don't go to school on the weekends anymore. Earlier in the year, the five most stolen vehicles in the country, do you remember they were named? Do you remember those? So it was the Hilux, Toyota Hilux was number one. Holden Commodore, Subaru Legacy, Ford Courier, and the Subaru Impreza.

What about the Honda Tornio? That's always the top of the list. Well, not on this, not according to this. But I just find it amazing that cars can even be stolen these days. Most of them. Old cars. All those models you named do have older versions. Yeah, so it's probably the older versions of those.

Yeah, new cars would be harder to steal. Not impossible to steal, but harder to steal. Have you done the Harry Styles quiz? It says maybe. Did you hit me with the link? No, I will. Why maybe? What did you say?

Nothing is certain in this life However, a romance with Harry is still a possibility But does everybody get that? I think you'd No, I reckon you came across too thirsty What did you do? I haven't done it You definitely came across thirsty

Look at you Even now you just look thirsty We have to go back to breaking into cars for a living No, I'll just redo the quiz and change my answers. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The Podcast. Just an update. The Would Harry Styles Date You

pop quiz that we've all taken behind the scenes. Harry Styles would date all of us except Megan. No. Producer, you've got a no. A straight up no. Oh, really? You've got a no as well. She got a straight up... I got a maybe. Oh, right. So you've got you got a no? A straight up no. Oh, really? You got a no as well? She got a straight... I got a maybe. Oh, right.

So you got an absolute... I got an absolute no and it said that he would friend zone me the day he met me. So that's pretty harsh from old Harry. Also, I'd like you to know

I retook the quiz and I changed my favourite fruit. You can't do that. From strawberry to watermelon. I mean, that should be obvious. I got a yes straight off the bat.

He'll date me now. Honest answers. Yes, he would. I mean, that should be obvious. I got a yes straight off the bat. He'll date me now. Honest answers, yes, he would. I'm not honest answers, I just had to change my fruit. We're talking mother-in-laws right now

because a woman has shared a situation she is in. This is like, I'd be more angry at the husband. Okay,

so she put on Reddit that she had a question and wanted to know how everyone would react if this happened to them. Just wondering how much it would bother you if your husband behind your back gave his mother access to log in and watch the nanny cameras anytime. Wow. That's... Yeah, I just...

It's the nanny cam that you put in your baby's room. So you can look at... It's not what you put in the lounge when you go out and the babysitter's looking after your kids. Because that's not on, is it? Can you do that? Both can be logged into. Yeah. But that nanny cam is what... Yeah, it feels? Both can be logged into. Yeah.

But that nanny cam is what yeah, it feels a bit more full time to me. It feels like that's the one that sits in the kids room so you can keep an eye on them and they pulled a blanket up over their face and that. Because I thought the mother-in-law had maybe given an excuse or a different reason or like tried to rationalise

it. She literally said she wanted access so she could log in and monitor what's going on during the day. Just to spy on them. Just to see if... But even if it's not to spy on her, it's just to see like that she's being a mother all right. Yeah.

She agrees with the practices that she's... Yeah, no, that's not good. Yeah. So how did the internet react? Not well? No, everyone, yeah, integrates with her that it is weird, that's not good. Yeah. So how did the internet react? Not well. No, everyone, yeah, integrates with her that it is weird,

it's crossing a line. The husband should absolutely be in deep for this because he gave her access. He probably felt he couldn't say no to mum. But then did the mum ever say to her, oh, I saw that you swaddled

a certain way. Maybe this is a better way to swaddle. Or like, how did she find out? Does it say? She had been messaging the husband behind her back asking about certain practices. Right, so it was. She was going

through the husband saying. The routine and when the baby sleeps and eats. Oh, wow. Well, that's the thing. When you have children, everybody's very forthcoming with the advice. But lots of things have changed since we were a baby. Because when, like teething, for example, they used to rub brandy around.

I got Jim Beam. I think I got whiskey. Maybe that's why I love whiskey. Classy. It's classy stuff. So, yeah, lots of things have changed. But people do love offering up their advice. Well, I don't want to talk about mother-in-laws per se,

but more about the fact that she was spied on. Do you think that there are people in New Zealand that have experienced being spied on? Either in your own home. What, you've found a camera or something? Yeah. Oh, I don't know. In like an Airbnb?

That's the thing, you do hear about the odd Airbnb situation. Yeah. Maybe you found a sly camera in your workplace. I don't know. Do you think there would be people who've found... Well, I mean, yeah, I guess there's more and more cameras now, isn't there?

Yeah. What an absolute... Oh, that would be so, because I went to an Airbnb and we discovered halfway through the weekend that there was a camera in the lounge area and that was enough because we were like, what if we went downstairs in our undies or whatever? Yeah, that's not on having a lounge camera. Right. Like a security camera that was there for when it was empty. And they never said that there was any cameras or anything.

Right. Did you take it down or was it... No, it was up in the corner of the ceiling. Wow. Dodgy, eh? I would have put something over it. But it's tiny up in the corner of the ceiling. That's so...

That's bad that they didn't tell you. Yeah. Because you could have been in your undies on the couch. Yeah. Dodgy. Aha, joke's on them. Face on me and my undies on the couch. Yeah. Told you. Uh-huh. Joke's on them. Face on me and my undies on the couch. They'll be like, let's see if the people renting our Airbnb are up to anything sexy.

Whoop. Nope. He seems to be playing with his balls. He's popped them out the leg of the undies. And it doesn't look like he's doing it for any erotic purpose. It just looks like he's bored and they were something to fill his hand.

Gross. Okay, alright, well I don't know, maybe it's a bit, yeah, maybe. I don't know. Yeah, well I mean, you found a camera.

I did, yeah. Maybe you're not alone. We're talking about when you've found a secret camera, when you've been spied on because a woman has taken to the internet

to ask whether it's dodgy that her husband gave her mother-in-law access to the nanny cams. And then started dishing out some motherly advice. Yeah. And yes, people have found cameras. Paul, good morning. Hi. How are you?

Now, what did you find? We were house sitting withitting for some people when halfway through in the bedroom we noticed when we were doing the do, there's a camera up in the right-hand corner. It wasn't hidden. It was quite... No, it was kind of hidden. It was quite a small camera, but

yeah, I was obviously there to spy on whoever's in the bedroom or whatever. Wow. How well did you know the people you were house-sitting for? My partner's friend, so I didn't know them very well at all. Wow. That's bad. Yeah.

Was it ever brought up, like, was there a recording or a... We didn't know how to bring it up, but we noticed it was in motion. So if you walked in the room, you there a recording or a... We didn't know how to bring it up, but we noticed it was in motion. So if you walked in the room, you had a click. Oh, right, okay. So that would indicate that it was on, yeah. Yeah. Oh, cool.

It was definitely on right there. And then I think what she's gathered, my partner, that it was there for their daughter to spy on if she was snooping. Oh, right, okay, yeah. Could they not turn it off when you were there? If they had forgotten about the camera, that is so embarrassing.

Yeah. Oh, my God, we weren't spying on you. Yeah. They didn't know how to bring it up. Don't look at that. Just let it overlap. Wow. Paul, thanks for your call.

Kyle, your friend found a camera at an Airbnb. Yeah, so about two years ago, my friend was travelling around France with his new girlfriend at the time. Yeah. And then they entered the Airbnb, excited new couple on holiday, got down to it straight away on the bed, looked up in the corner of the room and then found a camera pointing right towards the bed.

Yeah, so turns out they were being filmed the whole time. So they complained to their Airbnb host and they got moved to a hotel room and refunded. But, you know, it doesn't stop the video from jumping online. Oh, no. Waiting for the installment to come on. Yeah. Because imagine you're online and you find your video.

You're like, oh, no. What? Is that what my bum looks like from that angle? Yeah. Nobody needs to see that. No. Wow. It's weird that, so they refunded them and put them up at a hotel,

but can Airbnb not, like, demand the video or something? Yeah, they never actually heard back on whether or not the video has been removed or anything like that. So, you know, all the boys are constantly checking daily. Hey, I'll help them out too. I'll keep it. I will now log on to various sites

every day, only to help out. Airbnb, yeah. Because surely you could sue Airbnb. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. Wow. Because the money's

one thing, but my thumb on the internet is another. Yeah, yeah. Brilliant. Unless you were getting, like, good reviews.

It would be the bad reviews that would scare me the most. Oh, yeah. Like, imagine if your sex tape had, like, only 42% or something. Oh, my God. Great. What category would like only 42% or something. Oh my God.

Great. What category would it be under? That's another thing to consider. I don't know. All right, some text messages. Somebody said there was a, I won't say where this was,

but there was a rugby club and apparently the guy who ran the bar had a camera in the girls' bathrooms for over a year. He was caught because he had an argument with his

missus, so she told the police about it. So she knew about it. She knew about it. But there would have been more footage of rugby boys doing the devil's dandruff in the toilet than actual girls getting changed. Yeah, right. I don't know either, Megan. You said confirmation what that was.

I don't know what the devil's dandruff could possibly be referring to. Another reason why I didn't say where this rugby club was. either, Megan. Confirmation what that was. I don't know what devil's dandruff could possibly be referring to. Another reason why I didn't say where this rugby club was. Yeah, right. Back in the day, me and my now wife were hanging out in my room at the flat in the middle of the day. One thing led to another. Neither of us bothered to shut the curtains. And that's when we noticed the old lady across the road

with a video camera pointing at our house. Retro? You've almost got to admire it. To be fair though, how far, because she zoomed in, they were grainy.

Digital zoom. It would have been grainy. And the big flashy red LED light. Not what you would expect. No. And then But like, not who you would expect. No. And then she yells, cut. My partner and I were selling a house when we had our, when we were selling our house,

sorry, we had our baby monitor set up. So during the open home, we could see and hear what people were saying and doing. Who would do that? We did it. Did you? 100%. 100%. Oh, I wouldn't like to

What if they're like This is ugly I'd be like ouch Yeah they're like Oh what have these people Done with the decor No we didn't Nah none of that

Okay Nah it was Did you hear anything Racy or nah? Anything juicy Nah not really But it's just good to They'd be like oh yeah

How many people are How many people have Been through How many people are interested Oh you'd hear some yarns from your real estate agent. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely, yarns. Good yarns on your side because that's where I sell a house.

Brought to you by the Spinoff Podcast Network and available wherever you get your pods. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

ZM. There is a podcast I've been listening to, I have been loving. There is one episode left. It's called Chasing Charlie. It's about a New Zealand con man who's been conning a variety of women and the private investigator chasing him.

Now, the private investigator joins us on the phone. Julia Robson, hello, good morning. Hello, good morning. Happy Friday. Happy Friday. Happy Friday to you too. How did this podcast come about? Because I have great podcast ideas all the time

and none of them have got off the ground. Wow. Obviously, in the PI business, we have a lot of different stories come across our desk. And this one, as soon as I heard it, I just thought, wow, this is an incredible story. And then in around about 2016, I heard about podcasts. So I first heard about the story in 2011. I don't even think podcasts existed then. But then when I finally heard about it, I thought, you know, I've got to make a podcast about this. And it's really just unraveled from there. So the case itself has been on the go since 2011 with Vivian, who you were engaged by to investigate this guy that she knew as Charlie. And I've listened to, I'm hanging out for this final episode.

I'm fizzing. I'm very excited. I'm all in. So you start chasing Charlie then. But like, so there's five years between the start of the chase to when you think, oh, this could make a good podcast. And then another sort of four years until the podcast itself's finished. That's correct.

And there are reasons for that. Well, first of all, Charlie went into hiding for a while, so the trail went cold. And then when I got a new lead, I said, okay, we can pick this up again. And the podcast was originally designed for people to ring in and tell us where's Charlie next? And as you know, all of a sudden we got this new lead that he was in New Zealand. So this is where it ends up that I head out over to the sunny shores of Auckland and see what I can do to track him down.

What an exciting job being a PI. Well, it doesn't always go this way. So usually as an investigator, we're just the middle person. Right. So we'll just find all the evidence we need

and then we hand it back to whether it's the lawyer or our client and then they'll normally finish it. So for me, this became personal because I thought,

you know what, if I don't do something about this, nothing is going to come out of it and he's going to continue to get away with what he's been doing his whole life. So it was a new opportunity for me as well. Because that's the thing, isn't it?

The police can't catch him because he's constantly changing his name, his identity. He's leaving countries. He's moving areas. Is it technically stealing money off these women? Because they're kind of giving it to him, maybe for not the purpose he said it was for, but he's not robbing them. Well, look, it depends on the story,

the person that he's dealing with. In some cases, it's clear fraud. In other cases, yes, he was borrowing money, but he was doing so pretending that he was a millionaire and using a fake identity. Sure. So there is deception no matter what you look at it. And when you put it all together,

you realise that anyone who comes into contact with him, he will work out a way to get them to hand over their money. What are the legalities with something like this? You know, like you're investigating this guy and then you're telling his story. Like, do you have to be careful with what you say? Well, this is why, again, it took a little while to get the story out. So where you have to make sure that everything is covered off,

there's some storylines that we can't include. And ultimately... What can't you include? The ones that are in there are insanely juicy. I was kind of like, when I heard middle-aged woman describing sex acts that had done on them on a podcast, I was like, oh, my gosh, I'm blushing. And that could be included, but something couldn't. Oh, God, it must have been good.

Well, look, obviously people are being very upfront with some very salacious stories and we have to treat that with a certain level of sensitivity while also providing entertainment for people that are tuning in. But there's other things that, yeah, people are saying, look, I'm giving you all this information. Perhaps just leave out the other stuff that I'm not quite ready to share with the public. Wow.

Well, this has baited people into giving us a binge listen this weekend before the next episode comes out, which I believe they come out on Sundays, is that right? Monday. Monday. The final episode. Okay, Monday is going to be the final episode of Chasing Charlie. Julia, thanks so much for having a chat to us. Enjoy your weekend.

And if you want to check out the podcast, it is called Chasing Charlie, and it's everywhere the podcasts are. Thanks. Have a great weekend. You too. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. There's some egg trays in studio. Not your closed-top egg box where there's either 12 or 10 eggs.

I know 10 egg trays, you don't like that. No, because I have four egg omelettes, and it leaves me with two. Right. It's annoying. Or the six. You'd never buy a six. No, I'd never buy a six. That's a half a dozen.

Yeah. These have got room for 30 eggs, and there's three of them, meaning there's once held 90 eggs. Okay, great. Setting the scene. Someone's pretty good at maths over here. Someone's been helping their daughter learn times tables. So they're pretty switched on with times tables at the moment.

Hit me with a times table. Seven times nine. 63. Oof. That's good. Because you said seven, and then I had all the sevens lined up ready to go. That's weird, man. It is, yeah.

Anyway, you might be wondering why I have requested these from Megan and Mr. Torboy's Cafe. Eight times 42. Eight times 42 is a lot. Who's doing a 42 times table? Well, yeah, show enough. Come on. Well, 42.

What was it? Eight times 42. So 42 times 42 would be 168 times 2 is 332. Is it over? 336. Damn it, I was just like, okay. Hey, don't break the tray. She started talking.

Oh, yeah. So these are here because it's my daughter August. It's her birthday on Monday. She is turning six years old, which blows my mind. Cute, did you see how I knew that? I said six at the same time as you, did you not hear me? Yeah, but it's because I've been saying it. Oh.

And it's not that hard to work out, it was last year she started school. So, I was really hoping she'd have the same birthday as me. There was a chance. No, you wouldn't have liked that. No, you would have stolen my attention. Yeah, and you're very, very heavy on the attention around your birthday. Oh, he called you heavy.

Bitch. I didn't mean it like that. What would be a better word? Very fat on attention around your birthday. Sorry, that's not right. Around your birthday, you like your attention laid on thick, morbidly, obesely. Yeah, you're not wrong.

You like your attention, let yourself slip. Yeah. You like your attention, maybe watch the carbs. So August wants for her birthday to give people a small, she has to work out how many eggs we've got come her birthday party and she wants to give people like a, what do they call these things when you give someone something? A party favour.

A party favour. She wants to give them eggs. That's so true. Because we've got a lot of eggs. Yeah, right. Because I said, was it yesterday or the day before, I said, have you guys been getting the eggs in the morning? And they were like, no.

I was like, when was the last time anyone got eggs? And they hadn't this week and there was just bloody eggs everywhere. Oh, right. Okay. So, yeah, we've got this excess of eggs and she said we should give her a run of the company. Excess? But what six-year-old wants an egg? I don't know.

Is she going to, like, colour them in? I don't think so. Oh. She's just going to be like, here's some eggs. So you're going to, like, section out those trays and then, like, wrap it up and... Cut the... The ribbon or something. Well, I don't know if there's going to be a ribbon.

I have no further plans apart from to put eggs in the holes. Okay. To cut these into however many eggs and out of many people. And then that'll be a maths lesson in itself. I still think she's got to get out the vivids and draw on the eggs. Well, she can write on each egg, thanks for coming. No, you can't draw on a vivid with eggs because the eggshell is porous. You've got to do it with like a pencil.

What, and does the vivid go into the egg? Yeah, it can. Does it? That's what I learned. And when we first got chickens, I wrote the date on them and someone's like, don't write it in vivid, it'll go through. He's not wrong because I had an omelette once and I saw a W. Why would someone

write a W on the egg? No, it should be a date. It's a date. It should be the 19th. Was it a three? I don't know. It would have been a three and it went on the side

and it looked like a W. Just don't vivid eggs, okay, is what we can learn from this. Don't vivid eggs. Yeah, don't vivid eggs. But that's what we can learn from this. Don't vivid eggs. Yeah, don't vivid eggs, but that's what this tray of eggs is for. Can you take a picture of these party favors once she's done with them? I think you've got to put them on your Instagram at some stage

over the weekend so we can see what a party... And a reaction from one of the... Oh, you can't film other people's kids, do you, Matt? Not everybody's. Ask for their permission and then... Maybe just get some quotes. Yeah, I'll put some quotes. I'll put it up with some quotes and words. What do you think of this present? Wow.

Wow. Wow. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Joined on the phone by the Prime Minister of this country of ours, Jacinda Ardern. Good morning. Good morning.

Good morning. Level one. Thank you, guys. We haven't talked to you since we shifted to level one. No, that's true. I bet you'd wish you'd never mentioned the little dance. You know what, I have no regrets. I've enjoyed the speculation

and the videos. I just this morning finally watched the video. Is it from Love Actually? You've been photoshopped onto Hugh Grant's... What do you mean photoshopped? I mean, it's such a... I mean, it was obviously you. Yeah.

99 days until the election today. It is. Thank you for the reminder. That's right. Got that one sorted or got a bit of a to-do list? No, there's a to-do list. As you can imagine, it hasn't quite been my focus of late.

No. No, and I don't think really anyone else's, to be honest. But, you know, once Parliament suspends, that's probably when we'll really get into it. Right. Quick question on a completely personal, selfish note. When are we likely to be able to go to the Cook Islands for a

casual week? A casual week of sunning and drinking delicious cocktails? As opposed to, of course, going south, possibly skiing in New Zealand or taking a little New Zealand holiday. Hey, hey, hey.

We'll go there too. You've been told. But, you know. But to answer your question, we're working through it because we've got obviously a couple of bids in for countries that want to open up with New Zealand. So we're creating a bit of health criteria that we need to make sure that those countries pass.

And they'll want to do the same with us. It's not a one-sided, just to make sure that it's done safely. So regardless of whether it's Australia or a Pacific neighbour. Feels nice to be wanted, though. You may want that. Let's play hard to get. Yeah. Let's play hard to get.

Okay, yeah, I don't know. We'll have a chat about it. We've just got to make sure that when we do it That we're doing it at the right time Because no one wants to have No one wants to have a return Is that list of countries That you talk about is that sort of on the down low

Or is that in open Look we've always said We did prioritise Australia But what we're doing in doing the work For Australia is actually making sure that it will work for, you know, Pacific neighbours. And we've always said

that they're on our list as well, particularly the realm countries, Cook Islands in their way. Yeah. Awesome, awesome. Well, that's good. I'm just writing that down. But speaking about keeping it local,

you went to Kaikoura Whale Watch. I did. Did you see a whale? Oh, we didn't go out on the water. I've been out before as a domestic tourist a few years back. I just took a friend down there and it's amazing. But they're restarting. Everyone, mark it in your calendar, that first week of July.

So just they're in time for school holidays, they're reopening and looking forward to taking people out. So we were down there just because we're supporting them through a period where obviously they won't be quite as busy as they usually are. And of the 180,000 people that visit Kaikoura, 100,000 go out on Wild Watch. So it's a real destination.

So that's why we need to make sure that they can keep going because the whole area would suffer if they didn't. I'm just trying to remember what they call their seasick pills. Do you remember that? Have you had those? I didn't know they had specific ones. So the pharmacy, Kaikoura crackers, that's what they're called. Oh, are they?

I just know about the pie-hair bombers. It's the same. It's the same. I think it's pretty much the same from my research because I don't want to be taking something that, you know, tripped me out on the boat. I want to know a little something. But, yeah, I think it's the same sort of situation.

Ah, okay. I reckon Kikolder's worth a visit alone to get those in case you're forced to go on a boat. Does everyone from Lawrenceville get seasick? We're an inland people. We are, yes. We're not used to the water. We're not a seafaring folk.

We're landlocked in there. I can attest to that, yep. All right. And also, I think worth mentioning, because we talked about it on the show, and it's great to see that there is a trial going ahead for free sanitary products in school to fight period poverty. This is amazing.

Yes, actually, we're doing it. So it's not a trial per se. We're just starting in one area. We're starting in the Waikato just because we want to make sure that we're rolling out in a way that works for young people. So we're doing a bit of a test run there, make sure that we're rolling out in a way that works for young people. So we're doing a bit of a test run there, make sure that we're doing it right. Because some schools at the moment who do have product,

you have to go to the office to get it. So, you know, things like that. We don't want that kind of situation where people don't feel comfortable. So we'll start there and then we're rolling out all schools in the beginning of next year. Yeah, right. I can completely understand that.

Because as you remember at school, I was very charming with the office ladies. They loved when I came for a visit. On this occasion, I can say that you are, in fact, telling the truth. Yeah. I still have this weird charm. Do you? Your mama used to charm her in the cafeteria.

You did. You charmed my mum at the canteen. It was far more about, for me, school was far more about charming the older ladies. And life continues to be about that. I love charming the older ladies. Jacinda's moved on to changing the world. She's like, oh, we're going to go on.

She's probably going to go on and talk to Duncan Garner or something fun like that. We'll let you go. No, you're not going to. She's not in a hurry to get off for fun if Duncan Garner's on the other side. We'll let you go. No, you're not Garner. She's not in a hurry to get off the phone if Duncan Garner's on the other side. Thank you, Prime Minister. Thank you. Always enjoy my time with you. Have a great weekend. We have fun.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The Podcast. Friday Flashback. But it's time. First of Friday Flashback. This is a Friday tradition. We take turns each week picking a song that is at least 10 years old. And the only rules are it's just got to be a banger. And Megan, it's your turn this week. I just had to work out how many years old it is.

It was released in 2006, 14 years ago. Okay. Oh, don't say it like that. It's scary. It's scary when you hear the song and then you realise it's 14 years old. Yeah. You know what freaked me out the other day? What?

I was thinking about, you know that movie Dazed and Confused? Mm. It came out in 1994. A classic movie. Yeah. Richard Link, Linklater. Right. Made it.

Yeah. Brilliant film. So that came out in 1994 and it was set in 1977. Yeah. So there was only four, ten, three more. 17 years between that being released and that being made into a movie as like a retro piece. Yeah.

So if we go back 17 years now, the same would be a movie set in 2003. Oh, my God. Wow. That movie was released when my husband was born. God, do not take him back to 2003. He'll be an infant. So this song was released in 2006.

I felt it was fitting for the week that we're in. Okay. So it was this artist's first, even number one in America, which is as a solo, which is amazing. It went number one in New Zealand. It's massive.

Number one in Ireland, number one in Norway, Scotland, UK. Yep, that's about it. But I felt like we could play this song this week because it's the first weekend in level one. Yeah. So we need to bring sexy back.

Just in time. Through all the levels, I've been maintaining full sexiness. Yeah, you've been full sexy. Full sexy. Yeah. Have you not noticed? I might put sexy back. Like, you've been full sexy. Full sexy. Yeah. Have you not noticed? I might put sexy back. Like, I've had enough.

Yes. Good feedback. Far too early in the morning for this song. That's what somebody said. We can't be sexy at 8 o'clock in the morning. This is when I'm at my peak sexy. It's all downhill from here. You guys

get the good stuff and my wife has to put up with the sloppy when I get home. Wow. She's like, look at yourself. Yeah. All right,

ten past eight. One in five people have ended their relationship because of their bathroom habits. So that's 20% of people. That's a lot of breakups

over bathroom habits What kind of things would that be? So for men, the biggest issue they said Do you want to guess? With their partner, something about the Oh, peeing on the seat No Wait, you said

What men's problems with females are And you said peeing on the seat Oh, okay I was like, how does that happen? Yeah, right You said what men's problems with females are. And you said peace of speech. Oh, okay. Do you know that? I was like, how does that happen? Yeah, right. Bathroom here, here.

Yeah. Or here in the sink. Here in the drain. Here in the shower drain. No, no, no. It was just the one. Stuff everywhere. And then I'm told, can you clean up your sign? And even though my stuff's got like a toothbrush and some deodorant and like bed oil, not 10,000 different things.

Makeup on the white towels. Yeah, I get makeup. I'm the one who's messy about the towels. Makeup on the sink. Do you like, when you do your makeup in the morning, do you clean the sink? I'm like, yes. Yeah, but then I have a shave and there's like.

Stubble. There's a little tiny bit of stubble around the plug hole and it's like, can you please clean the sink properly when you have a shave? But like there's just like these pooey looking makeup smears. Or on the side of the sink. Or like a kind of a hairball

in the plug. Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean, we're illustrating how much of a problem all of these things are. But the biggest issue for men was the hair in the shower drain and then us not cleaning it. But I always clean the shower. That's my job. Yeah.

And I have to clean the hair out of the drain. But then that's your... That's my hair but it's still gross. For women, the biggest turn off for them

that guys did in the bathroom was... Skids. You're so good at this game. Is it? Is it skidding? The mess and smell their boyfriend leaves behind in the bathroom. Skids. You're so good at this game. Is it? Is it skiddings? The mess and smell their boyfriend leaves behind in the toilet. Here's my issue. A poo is a

poo. I don't need to be given a review of how much it stinks after it happens. It came out of me. I'm familiar with it not being pleasant. Crack a window. Windows open. Spray some spray. And then shut the door. So it doesn't waft into the house. Because our bathroom is right in the middle of the house.

You leave it open, it wafts through the house. I got told off because we were having people come around, and she was using our bathroom, so I used the toilet in the hallway, and she came out, she's like, what have you done? I was like, poos, why? Did you shut the door? No, no, no. We've got guests coming. Did you shut the door? No, no, no. What have you done?

We've got guests coming. Did you shut the door? No. I shut it while I pooped. After. No, you've got to let the air flow through. No, it goes out the window. You know with porn, you've got to let the air through.

Otherwise, it'll remain in the... It'll go out the window. And then when they open the door to use the lavatory, they'll be really smacked in the face with it. That we hit with a human wall of stench. And always clean the bowl. I don't know how to pack a mattress beside the bowl because my granddad used to do that and that's tried and tested, that one.

We'll just get like a nice candle. Well, we've got a nice candle. Then why didn't you use that afterwards? I did. Okay. It was just a particularly meaty evening. Okay, great. But that's led to 20%.

All of those things we've mentioned. Ending a relationship. Not just an argument or a disagreement or be like, do it like this. People ending their relationships because of bathroom habits. So we'd love to know right now, have you ever broken up with someone because of their bathroom habits? Was it something we've

listed off? Or was it something different? Maybe it was a combo of them. Yeah. So one in five people, or 20%, have broken up with their partners because of their bathroom habits. Both ways, women and men have different issues.

Hair in the drain and skids in the toilet are the biggest ones. But we wanted to know if you've ever broken up with someone because of their bathroom habits. Ben, you have. Yes, I have. Right, so what was the habit? Oh,

just an ultimate mess, really, eh? It was just everything just got to you? Yeah, just like makeup all over the It was just Everything just got to you Yep Just like Makeup all over the Over the sink Clothes all over the floor

Couldn't DLA Couldn't clean up after I actually do both of those things Clothes on the floor Well no Because I get my clothes out Ready for the day But I leave them on the bathroom floor

And he's always like Hang them up Or put them in the bedroom Fold them up Make for the day, but I leave them on the bathroom floor, and he's always like, hang them up, or put them in the bedroom, fold them up. Make a pile, yeah. How do you leave them in the bathroom? Just on the floor. Piled, though? Yeah.

Not just scattered. All week, though. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're talking different here, aren't we, Ben? So that was just the final straw. It was just constant mess. Yeah, yeah. Right.

So you're like, you're gone. I'm a bit of a khaki text. Right. Khaki text. Thank you for your service. Yeah. Thanks for your call, Ben. Some text messages.

I suffer from IBS. That's irritable bowel syndrome. Okay. And endo. I'm always very self-conscious about someone getting to know me and my toilet habits. Top tip for skids from me. I just love that. Very conscientious. But toilet habits. Top tip for skids for me. I just love that. I'm very conscientious.

But here's a top tip for skids. Okay. Flush the toilet. Chuck a wee bit of toilet paper down. I always do. There's a crash pad, if you will. Yeah. It also reduces splash up onto the taint and or scrotal area.

Yeah. I'm not saying she has a scrotal area. Whatever the female equivalent of a scrotal area is. The gooch. Yeah. And then a little bit of toilet paper afterwards and then flush. The only flaw is that their partner often tells them they're using all the toilet paper. Yeah, I was going to say.

But that's okay. They'd rather deal with that. And also that's using a bit of water too. And a lot of, well, Auckland especially has a water. Oh, you don't give it a full flush on the first one. You just give it one of those tap flushes so the water goes around the bowl. Use a brush. Anonymous, you dumped your ex because of a bathroom habit.

I did. And what was it? So we used to have an en suite and a disconnected toilet and he would walk... He would be too lazy to walk to the disconnected toilet so he would pee in the sink be too lazy to walk to the disconnected toilet, so he would pee in the sink, in our en-suite sink. And on multiple occasions, he peed on my face cloth that I would wash my face with each morning before I went to work.

Yeah. Oh, groom, that's groomed. On behalf of all males, I'd like to apologise for what you've been through That's horrendous It was traumatic, I will never forget the smell I will never forget the taste Because that's when you wash your face in the flannel Yes, I am one year happy out of that relationship

And never go back What now? Oh my god, I'm trapped There must have been a first time that he did it. There was a first time that he did it and he knew that he had done it and he was sitting in the bedroom waiting for me to use it.

And I used it and I just remember the smell and I remember looking at him and his face was just... Did he think it was funny? He thought it was hilarious, yeah. Oh, no. Oh, no. Well, that's why he got dumped.

Another anonymous caller has messaged in. This is your ex that you dumped because of a bathroom habit. Yes, it was. Okay. How bad is it? Well, it kind of started off like I'd be in the bathroom doing my business and then he'd come in before bed and like brush his teeth. And that's fine.

Like if he wanted to come in while I was getting sorted for the night, then that's all good. But then I was brushing my teeth and then he started coming in and doing his business and that was absolutely not okay. Yeah. Right. I see the story. I see it.

Because you're cleaning your teeth. You don't need that. Yeah. Like I just thought it was a bit gross that he'd do it anyway. Like. I see it, yeah. Because you're cleaning your teeth. You don't need that. Yeah, like, ew. I just thought it was a bit gross at head to head anyway. Like, well, I was doing my business. Did you say, like, don't do that anymore? Or you were just like, nah, it's over?

Yeah, I did say that. I wasn't completely savage, but. Right, okay, but he kept doing it. Okay, all right, thank you, Anonymous. Well, there you go. My ex-boyfriend used to cut his manky toenails in the bath And just leave them floating in the bath And then when the water drained They'd be in the bottom of the bath or in the plug hole

Dumped him because of Along with this and all of the other gross habits Yuck Oh my god, that's so gross This is actually a really good point I think we'll finish on this My husband does explosive sounding number twos. Now, they're not actually

explosive. He just happens to release a lot of gas at the same time. It's gross, and he always poops straight before bed in our ensuite toilet. Okay. Which I can hear everything that happens in there. Yeah. Then he washes his hands and jumps into bed

and wants to get sexy. I'm still traumatised and grossed out and he's confused why I don't feel sexy after hearing the backfire, the explosions

and the poopies. Go use the main toilet. Don't back that thing up on me. How do you do it? He doesn't get in front of her and nestle back in. I was just thinking if he wanted a little spoon. He wants to be lit spoons. Oh, you know, yeah.

Lit spoons, spoons. Keep that thing as far away from you as possible. Well, there you go. Stop being gross. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Today's fact of the day is about the Shawshank Redemption.

Okay. The classic film that all blacks always say is their favourite movie whenever they're asked in one of those questionnaires. Do they? Always. Do they? Always. That's such a weird tidbit.

Sports people on a whole. Why? It's always like, what's your favourite TV show? And then what's your favourite movie? And they're always like, Shawshank Redemption. I don't know. Is that something they get told to say in a... It's across the board universally pleasing film.

Is it? There's nothing controversial about it. Right. Always. Gonna look out for that now. Yeah, well you just, yeah. Okay.

You just keep an eye out. Every time we get a rugby player on the show now we have to ask them what their favourite movie is. And then if they say nothing I'll be like, could it possibly be

Shore of Shank Redemption? And I'll lead them into the question and then we'll just have a massive list. Okay. Anyway, the American Humane Association. You know at the end of movies where it says no animals were harmed in the making of this movie? Yes.

As looked after by the American Humane Association. Yes. Well, they actually were on set to ensure that there was no cruelty to animals taking place. You remember Brooks in the movie, he's got a crow. He's got a pet crow and he feeds it maggots. Right. Well, it wasn't the crow that they became worried about. It was the fact that he was feeding the crow live maggots, which had been sourced.

Right. And they said, well, no, that's actually a live animal being eaten. So we can't say no animals were harmed because that maggot was. Oh, wow. So they had to, they couldn't use any of the maggots that they'd sourced. Yeah. Because that would have died under their care. So they sent somebody out to find a dead maggot.

So apparently. So that they could then say no animals. No animals were harmed. This maggot died of natural causes. Could they get like a freelancer to order the maggots and then... They weren't allowed to order the maggots specifically for the purpose of eating them because that would have been taking a creature that was live and ending its life for the film. Oh, yeah.

So they couldn't... They said you're not going to be able to have the no animals were harmed if the maggots been eaten. Can you not source maggots that have died? Well, no, that's apparently they just sent somebody out to find some roadkill and like have a bit of a look around it. And somebody found like a dead maggot. So they picked it up and took it back.

And they said, yeah, I found this. And that was enough to tick off the American Humane Associations. Because it was already dead. Yeah. It died of natural causes. Huh. Interesting. Or whatever had killed it before it became a fly. Yeah, but it died of natural causes. Huh. Interesting. Or whatever he killed it before it became a fly.

Yeah, right. Yeah. So today's fact of the day is that to ensure that they could have the no animals behind in the making of this movie, in Shawshank Redemption, the crow had to be fed a maggot that died of natural causes.

Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Got to bed nice and early last night. Ooh. Ooh-wee. Treat yourself. But that meant when I woke up this morning, because I put up a photo yesterday. Apparently I did it wrong.

Right. We got our TV unit finished. Yep. So I took a photo and put it up. Michelle was like, you've done that wrong. And then she had to put up a better photo to prove. Oh, her photo was pretty good. It was way better.

Anyway, so I went and put, then I shared hers and then I kind of went to bed. And so I woke up and I had lots of messages from people much like you two just did. Oh, you know, her photo's way better. Explains the space. I love it. Shows the balance. I decided to tell you that. Oh, everybody did. Everybody called them all traitors and I sent them this face. I noticed. I love how the crowd decided to tell you that. Oh, everybody did.

Everybody called them all traitors and I sent them this face. I noticed. The eyes with the straight mouth. I noticed that those, what are those little toys that you wanted to put on the... The pop vinyls. Yeah, they didn't make the cut, did they? Oh, yeah, no, they didn't. On the shelf. Very minimalist.

It's very nice. Well, you know, the shelves aren't fully all set up yet. That was her other problem. She's like, you know, I'm going to picture up the shelves until they're fully decorated. But now you've forced my hand. I've got to put a nice picture up because you've bulls up displaying the space. I'm like, oh, my God. Anyway, so I was going through the messages this morning.

A lot of like, yeah, I get it. Yeah, okay. She took a bit of a photo of the space. So there was a fair bit of critiquing. Right. And then I came across this message in my Instagram DMs.

It doesn't open with like Dev Warner or anything. Yeah. Okay. Your voice is painful on the air. Air as in your voice

is painful on the air as in the air on the side of your head. Yeah. Not the air. As in the airwaves. Yeah. Your voice is painful on the ear, as in the ear on the side of your head. Yeah. Not the ear. As in the airwaves. Yeah. Your voice is painful on the ear.

You're ruining the ZM show. What? And the Have You Been Paying Attention show. Oh. Oh, jeez. Come on. You're kind of funny, but your voice is extremely hard on the ears. Again, reiterating.

Usually I like those media platforms, but not your voice. Sorry. It's too late for the sorry. I think the hurt's been done. That came in at quarter to 11 last night. Who's taking their time? That's what I wrote back. Ha, ha, ha, because I sent this back at 3.45 a.m.

Ha, ha, ha. What an eff at 3.45am. Ha ha ha. What an effing thing to take time out of your day to tell somebody. Because can you imagine at quarter to 11 you'd be like... Right. It's time to deliver some searing criticism. Yeah. Which... Has there been a reply?

No, not yet. I haven't heard back from them. But anyway, they left their name on there. So I took their name and searched it on Facebook. I found them on Facebook, and in the back of their Facebook profile picture was their car and its number plate. So I put its number plate, and I went to Car Jam, and I found out exactly what kind of car it is.

Then I paid the $12.50, and I've got their postal address and their home address now. So this weekend, I'm going to drive my car up their driveway and straight into the lounge. Right, okay. Straight through the wall. Just stand outside and sing them a song.

Booyah! What's more annoying now? My voice or my driving or this giant hole in the wall? And you know the other thing? I'm going to do it at 10.43pm. Which is when they felt that they would deliver some criticisms. And then I'm going to tell them that their house is a bloody mess and why don't they clean it up?

I think it's probably fair to point out now that you are joking about driving the car through the wall. Well, I'm not going to use my car. I'm going to steal

their own car. Right. Because I found out why, as you know, and I know what kind of car it is, so I'll easily be able to figure out how

to do up a dummy key. Steal their own car. And then, you know what? If they don't take me seriously, I'll set their house on fire. Again, I think it's important to say that you aren't joking.

Why are you freaking out? Fawn takes criticism very well. He does. If by some chance, these people have someone drive through their lounge wall at 10.43pm and then tell them to clean up their house

and then they set their house on fire, then I'll say I was kidding. Circumstantial at best, Your Honour. Yeah, I'll be like, prove it. You talked about it on the radio. I'll be like, yeah, but I say a lot of things on the radio. Not that she listens anymore, because my voice is apparently destroying the show.

Sometimes people get you and Fletch confused. Oh no, have you been paying attention? Oh, sorry. Yep.
