The ZM Podcast Network. Play. ZM's Fletch, Warren and Megan. Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Warren and Megan podcast. Thanks to McCafe. Barista made coffee available from drive-thru and McDelivery at level 3. And also Dine-In at level 2. I want to say thank you to K. Byrne.

That's the only name I have. K. Byrne. Who sent us from Tauranga. Sent some treats in the mail. A little moisture meter for the plants. For a dry old duck like you. Yes. Always drying out, aren't you?

So you stop killing your plants. Yeah, basically, yeah. Have you started using it yet? What's the scale? Is it like Sahara? It just goes through. Perfect. Yeah. WAP.

Basically. Yes. But how does it know? Like each plant likes something different. Well, no. So it just tells you what the soil is. So you have to know what soil your plant wants. Okay.

Which I don't know. Yeah. So it's not really going to help you. You know. I resuscitated a peace lily. Oh, okay. We had our peace lily and it got so big. I took it out, cut it in three and made three peace lily. Oh, okay. We had our peace lily, and it got so big, I took it out, cut it in three, and made three peace lilies.

Okay. And put one in the outside room, and then the outside room kind of got the peace lily in there got kind of forgotten about. Yeah. And then I saw it, and I was like, oh, no, you flopped. Yeah. So I just put it in the shower and just ran water on it. Yeah.

It's got a hole in the bottom of the pot, and then just forgot about it and came back a couple of days later, and it is just strength to strength. Yeah, they do, because mine would flop all the time. That's how you know it. Yeah. It's got a hole in the bottom of the pot. Yeah. And then just forgot about it and came back a couple of days later and it is just strength to strength. Yeah, they do because mine would flop all the time. That's how you know it needs water. Yeah, that's how you know it needs water. And then boom. But then now that I've got a cat again, peace lilies are super naughty for cats.

The pollen. Yeah. The pollen will kill them instantly. Yeah. And they love it. And they, yeah. Yeah, right. So if you've got a peace lily, super, super careful about that.

Yeah, but you're counting on a peace lily Super careful about that Yeah but you're counting on Your peace lily flowering I think yours is just languishing It never gets to the flowering stage Any lily Is bad for a cat Yeah

Including Lily from Big Save She will kill a cat instantly She doesn't mean to She just cuddles them too hard She loves them too much She's like Elmira off Tiny Toons Now that Oh my god

Is a reference that just popped into my head. I love you, Puddin' Ted! Oh, my God. Yeah. Wow. She's like, I want to hug you. I want to squeeze you. I want to kiss you.

Oh, my God. Immediately Google that because holy shit, that was a flashback and a half. That was. Elmira, Tiny Toons. Here we go. Elmira hugs a squirrel. Squirrel's coming down the tree, making the noises. Here, squirrely whirly, look what I have for you.

Come on, little squirrely, take the nice peanut. Now I have a cute little squirrely whirly do pet and love and church and squeeze. I'll take you home and lock you in a nice little cage and never, never, ever let you out except to pet you and love you and hug you. That is exactly how you talk to your husband. And it's disgusting. Maybe that's where I got it from.

I want to pet you and hug you and squeeze you. And lock you in a cage. So you'll never see anyone ever again. Okay, you're crazy. Alright, can't be based. Thanks, Rachel. Hello, good morning. Welcome to the show, Fleece, Vaughan and Megan. Happy Friday. Friday.

Friday. Right. It is Friday. Your Friday flashback? Yeah, I was just thinking about that. Any grounds on that? No, there was a band in the news, but all their songs are absolute rubbish and trash. Right.

So I won't be doing that. They do quite like a bit of trash, though. Yeah, but we've done a couple of the big ones, and then there's dregs left. Yeah, gotcha. So back to the drawing board. I'll pick a banger at 8 o'clock that's at least 10 years old.

Secret sound today thanks to Neon. $15,000 to Jackpot. All you've got to do is identify our secret sound if you can get through. 7 o'clock and 8 are your chances this morning. This is the sound that's doing everybody's head in.

ZM Secret sound on Instagram for the guesses yesterday and the clues that we've had. The top six on the way. Yeah, the world's tallest woman has been crowned. Somebody had to get up on a stool and pop on the head.

What happened to the other tallest woman? Did she die? They have to find a new one. I think this woman just got taller. Oh, okay. I'm not sure that the last woman died or this one just grew a little bit taller. Oh, right. And thus taking the crown.

But I've got the top six things the world's tallest woman is sick of hearing. Because you would, wouldn't you? Tall people know that. Yeah. I don't know that. You're very short Yeah Not very short

But certainly not the world's Surely not the world's Tallest woman Yeah Next on the show Top signs you're an Insufferable attention seeker I don't know how many of these

You have to tick off To be like yeah actually That's me Yes Vaughn It was pointed at you But I didn't want to say anything. Alright, we'll go through that list next. See how much of an attention seeker you are.

ZDM's Fletch Vaughn and Megan. I've got the signs that prove that you are, this is quote, an attention seeking whore. Whoa! You're an insufferable attention seeker. So, Whoa. Whoa. You're an insufferable attention seeker. So out of the three of us. Vaughn, well, only one of us is a middle child

and had to fight tooth and nail for the love of their parents. Like your parents didn't like either of you, but I knew I wasn't a lost cause. I feel like I used to be much more of an attention seeker, but you've kind of like taken the baton for all of us, I think. Poop. See, I didn't help myself. Here's some examples of how you are an attention seeking person.

Fishing for compliments. Oh, I don't do that. No, I don't think you do that. No. What I do is I do something well enough that compliments come anyway. Yeah, but what about that time you went to a hospital? You're just like, just me in hospital, dot, dot, dot, dot. That wasn't compliments.

That was just attention. That was attention seeking. Yeah, that was. But that wasn't fishing for compliments. Yeah, you need others to tell you that you look good and everything all the time. And you put up, you know, like pictures to fish. Oh, that's annoying. Yeah.

You white lie all the time. Yep. You make up stories about things. Like, I'm just on my way, but you're still at home. Oh, that's the absolute tip of the iceberg. To appear more interesting than everyone else. Yep. You constantly have the urge to feel superior to all of your friends.

Oh, no, I don't need to feel superior. But I also don't let the truth get in the way of a good yarn. I can see the foundations of a yarn. Even if the stories aren't real, you don't care as long as it draws attention to you. It makes you appear cooler or more attractive. Like I see a good cake of a story, but it just needs a bit of icing. Some sprinkles. A couple of candles in it.

You are the centre of everyone's world. Everyone and everything should revolve around you and nobody else. I don't know if that's you. I don't know if that's you. Maybe, yeah, until I had kids and stuff. Yeah. A wife significantly better looking than me. That'll put that to bed pretty quickly.

Cryptic status updates. This definitely isn't you. No, I know. Absolutely, I hate that. That shows an absolute lack of imagination. This is the obscure post stories updates on social media and you want people to be like, what's happening?

Are you okay? And get involved. Yeah. So you, again, fishing for people's attention. You are temperamental. Your mood swings change constantly. Excuse me? I mean, we could have a couple of Vaughans in one show, I feel like.

Oh, yeah, sometimes. Yeah. But I don't get, I get frustrated, but I don't get particularly angry. Your mood is highly dependent on your need to be noticed and liked. Does that feel pointed? This one I love. You're going to love this, L this leech it's hot in here do you feel like I'm under investigation okay yeah right my heart's racing just you're nice to everyone but not because you love all people or you're a politician but because you want everyone you meet to love you

and crave your attention you are everyone's like, Vaughn's so nice. I'm like, he just wants the goss. He just wants the goss, yeah. He just wants to keep you on side so he's got goss from all angles. Yep. But always, you know, a kind ear. Yeah, right. Sure.

And you two, like, you two don't be like, what's the goss, Smithy? Oh, we love that. When there's like a name suppression case, where's your first port of call? Vaughan. The old smithy. Because he's already been on the phone to somebody. They're like, hey, mate, how are you? How's journalism?

How's so-and-so? How's the dog? Yeah. Hey, who's this name suppression? That's how that's so good. VIP treatment. You want all the attention when you go to a new place. If your friends get more attention than you,

you think the place sucks. That could be fair enough. This is really pointed. It's like putting a mirror in front of yourself. And the last one is a good one too. Okay. The sore loser. You can't accept if a guy hits on your friend instead of you.

I mean. What? You don't like this. I mean, this is for females. Ah. If you, you're a sore loser. I don't like losing either. No one likes losing.

No, I know, but sometimes you can just be like, oh, it's all good. I was a terrible sport when I played proper sport. Yeah. Like really bad. My second cousin's rugby team beat us when we were at primary school and I refused to shake their hands. And then my granddad rang me and said, I heard you didn't want to shake your second cousin's hands.

I was like, what? And it had gone up to his grandmother, who was my grandfather's sister, and then across and then down. Yeah, right. I was like, awful. Wild. I don't think that's changed. It's like if we ever win an award now, you can't celebrate it.

No. Because you've said the award was stupid. These awards don't mean anything. And then if we win one, I'm just like, mm-hmm. They still mean nothing. Thank you. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughn and Megan. Well, Megan is furiously trying to find out what SPF or sun protection is in her makeup.

I know that it's SPF 10, which isn't a lot, which is why I put sunscreen on before I put my makeup on. Well, a study out of America, and it's a warning for people, they're saying that if you mix mineral and chemical sunscreens, so mixing a makeup, like a foundation, what else would it be in? Just foundation? Like, I guess if you had some moisturizers maybe?

Okay, so mixing mineral makeup, SPF, with chemical sunscreens, like you put on your makeup and then you put on sunscreen, that reduces the SPF in the study by 91%. Whoa! Yeah. Whoa! That's a lot, right? And that's when chemical creams with zinc oxide-based mineral ones were mixed.

So what's more likely to be in a sunscreen, a chemical-based one or a mineral-based one? I don't know. I don't know. And they don't say what sunscreens. Because I'm just trying to, I have been trying to find what the sun protection is in my makeup. It's so hard. It's so hard to find what the ingredient is. Right.

So how are we supposed to even look into this? Because a lot of the time it will be, I think, zinc. A lot of the times they're zinc-based from what this is saying. So to conduct the study, they used different SPF 15 sunscreen mixtures made of ingredients approved for use in the US and Europe. And researchers found the results of one of the UVA formulas, which are in the majority of sun cream mixtures used in Europe and the US, were found when they were mixed with chemical sunscreens

to be 90% less effective in UV protection after two hours exposure. Because you think you're doing the right thing by doubling up. So I think I put an SPF 30 on as like a moisturiser, with my moisturiser. Yep. And then you put the SPF 10 and your make-up on top. You're like, wow, that's like extra. I'd say just read the study.

Do a bit of Googling because it's, yeah, it's a pretty full-on read. Yeah. But yeah, maybe ditch the make- makeup when you go to the beach. I mean, you're going to go for a swim, right? Does your... Do you Nivea? My sunscreen? No, your moisturiser. I don't really moisturise.

Oh my God. Your regime blows my mind. I shave. I just shave and have a shower. Do you have like a face wash? Yeah, I do Not a body wash A face wash Yeah, I do

You have a face wash Yeah, just in the shower every day Every couple of days And then you get out and you don't moisturise No How does it not go dry? No, it doesn't Just got lovely skin

I hate you I don't know why I was about to swear I always just get the cheap stuff i always just get the chips right but yeah and i was thinking about getting some stuff with some some spf in it for summer yeah yeah okay yeah gotta protect that skin we'll just use any uh facial spf use your moisturizer use the facial sp What can I just, I just want one bottle. Okay. You're not familiar with, this is why head and shoulders is so popular. Men want everything in one bottle. If head and shoulders, granted I don't have the hair to wash, but if I wash my beard with head and shoulders, but it also had a moisturizer, that would be great.

Just a one-stop shop would be really, really good. Thank you. All right. The top six is next on the show. And the world's tallest woman clocks in at 2 metres, 15 centimetres. Wow. That's so tall. So tall. The top six things she's sick of hearing.

From the smoggy ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. The top six today, I was just looking up how tall are the tallest NBA players. Oh, yeah. So the tallest NBA player, George, but it's got a couple of H's in there. It's got an H after both of the G's, if you're familiar with how to spell George. Oh, okay. Seven foot seven. Wow. Played from 93 to 2001. It's got an H after both of the G's If you're familiar with how to spell George Oh okay 7 foot 7

Wow Played from 93 to 2001 Would he even need to like He was Romanian Would he even need to jump up to the hoop Or would he just be like He'd just push the ball down 7 foot 7

How tall is How high Is NBA basketball hoop. That's one of the top things. 10 foot. So 7'7". Your arms,

your span is always the same as your height or thereabouts. So yeah. Two and a half. Oh my god. He just literally just stand there. You'd just be able to chuck it up to him. Stand right there.

That is wild. It's crazy. So he was Romanian and there was a Sudanese national, Manute Bol at 7'7 as well. Wow. So how tall is the tallest woman? At one point, they both played for the Washington Bullets in 93, 94. Just stand.

Herf. For the Washington Bullets in 93-94. Just step. Huff. So the world's tallest woman has been crowned. She is seven foot, just over seven foot. She's from Turkey. She has a condition called Weaver syndrome, which causes accelerated growth. Oh, wow. Okay. And she was the world's tallest living teenager in 2014,

and now she's the world's tallest woman. Is she still growing? Has she got the syndrome? Maybe. The world's tallest woman to ever have lived was Zheng Zhulang from China, who measured 8'1". What? She died in 1982.

What? 8'1"? who measured 8 foot 1. What? She died in 1982. What? 8 foot 1? Again, she had a condition that caused accelerated and sort of never-ending growth. Wow. Wow. But today's top six is the top six things

the world's tallest woman's sick of hearing. And probably any tall person. Any tall person. This is the things that you don't need to say to tall people because they've definitely heard them enough. Number six, what's the weather like up there? It's a classic.

Yeah. It's a classic, but they are only just higher than you. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, their ears might pop. That all depends on how tall they are. If you're walking with someone, if you're five foot nothing and they're seven foot and you're walking,

their ears would pop a little bit before yours. Yeah, they'd be like, oh, my ears are popping. They'd be like, what are you talking about? They'd be like, start chewing because your ears are about to pop. Number five on the list of the top six things the world's tallest woman is sick of hearing. Do you play netball, basketball, volleyball? Do you row?

Basically, things tall people are good at. Yeah. But just because you're tall, it doesn't mean you have the coordination for this. I always feel sorry for tall people are good at. Yeah. But just because you're tall, it doesn't mean you have the coordination for this. I always feel sorry for tall people who aren't coordinated. The vast majority of them are uncoordinated, aren't they? But lanky. There's a sweeping generalisation.

Number three on the list. Number four, the things tall people are sick of hearing. You're lanky and uncoordinated, generally. Number four is, can you grab that smoke alarm down for me? Yes. Number three on the list of the top six things the world's tallest woman is sick of hearing. The H word. Huge.

Oh, right. Yeah. Don't say that. Because you say it to people, you're huge. Don't say that at any time. You're tall. I mean, they know that tall. You're lank're huge Don't say that At any time You're tall I mean they know that tall Don't say you're lanky Don't say that

Yeah don't say Generally you're uncoordinated Generally that Just don't comment on Yeah Yeah they know they're tall They know they're lanky People don't need to be told that

And the H word's not the right word No No Number two on the list Of the top six things The world's tallest woman Is sick of hearing You're so brave to wear heels.

Oh, my God. Because you guys get it? They're already tall enough. Yeah. And number one on the list of the top six things the world's tallest woman is sick of hearing. And I'm imagining this is just tall woman is sick of hearing. Yeah. How do you find guys taller than you?

I don't know. Just kind of like look flat out and if their eyes are just above my eyeline, I'd assume they're taller than me. But also that's not a prerequisite of people that I want to date. That is today's top six. It's popping off. A UK bakery in Leeds.

The guy that owns this bakery. I don't think I ever got his name. Oh, okay. Rich Myers from the story, but from the Facebook thread I was following yesterday and the tweets and everything, I never saw his name. He just signs off GB for Good Bakery. He ordered some, oh no, Get Baked. That's right.

Somebody said it was a good baker and he said, no, it stands for Get Baked. So he sells all sorts of delicious baked goods, covered some of them in sprinkles. For example, they're raspberry glazed donut cookies. And a birthday Bruce cake. That's what I meant to Google when I was reading about this. What is a Bruce cake? I love how this is how easily distracted you are.

No, this takes me to Bruce Bogchotter's chocolate cake. I don't want that. I want to know what a Bruce is. Is it for something he's named? No, because I've heard British people say it before, and it must be something that can have sprinkles put on top. I'm slightly salivating. If anybody can, let me know.

That'd be great. Is it not just the cake from Matilda? Bruce Bogtrotter's chocolate cake? That's what I googled, but I don't think so. You've just nicknamed it the Bruce cake? He first took to social media an outrage that he'd just been contacted by the UK's version of MB. Right. Effectively.

Because somebody had reported his sprinkles as being illegal sprinkles. Illegal sprinkles? Like hundreds and thousands. Longer. Longer. Like confetti. Yeah.

The longer sprinkles. Now, the reason they had reported it, and they must be in the know, was because they noticed that there was colours in those sprinkles that aren't legal. They were popping. Those colours't legal. They were popping. Those colors were popping. They were popping off.

They were imported from the United States via a UK-based wholesaler and found to contain E127 food coloring, which was only approved to be used in the UK and the EU for cocktail cherries and candied cherries. So this is a red. This is a vibrant red. Right. Which is weird, right? It can be in cocktail cherries and candied cherries. So this is a red. This is a vibrant red. Right. Which is weird, right?

It can be in cocktail cherries. It can be in the cherries that you bite a chuck in a Christmas cake, but it can't be in sprinkles. And it's the same. We're the same. Australia and New Zealand are the same as EU and Britain, right, with our food colouring. Because I know a lot of American candies,

like when you parallel import M&Ms, for example, aren't the colours, the blues and the reds the difference? There's a blue we can't have because I don't know when that came in, but I remember there was that in the 90s. Gather round, but I'll tell you a story about the 90s. There were all these candies that were just insanely blue.

Car blueys and you'd eat them and then they kind of changed and I wonder if that's when it came in. But yeah, these food colourings aren't allowed in the UK. So somebody dobbed him in. Why didn't they just give him the heads up? Did he know? Yes.

Oh, okay. He was importing them because he went on to say, British sprinkles are totally shit. I hate them. Oh, okay. I will not continue making these items and putting sprinkles on them if I have to use British sprinkles. It's highly unlikely we'll find any legal sprinkles.

I've said sprinkles too many times now. That will reach my high standards as a replacement. I'm extremely passionate about sprinkles. So that was when he got contacted by their equipment of MB. And he said, you can all go to hell. Then they investigated and they said you can't use these. You can't continue to sell. You're

going to have to find a sprinkle that's okay. And he's livid. I never tried these sprinkles. And the story's blown up. Like it's gone all over the world. The BBC interviewed him. He was on the news. He said well I won't be selling them and they won't be having sprinkles and that's all this person's fault. I think he found out the person who reported him

when he asked the government agency who reported him was a Dan. So he was absolutely on a rampage trying to find this Dan. He said, I've got a seven-month-old who one day I'm going to have to say, sorry, Daddy can't take you to Disneyland because Dan called the police

on him about his sprinkles. Oh, my God. It is wild. Yeah. Because his problem with the UK sprinkles is the colour runs. The colour isn't vibrant. Yeah, it runs into the icing and it's not vibrant enough. It doesn't hold and it's not popping and vibrant. So they would be the same as our sprinkles though, right?

The colour runs on our sprinkles, right? Yeah, the colour runs on our sprinkles. Because we're the same. Our food colourings are the same as Britain and Australia. Yeah, our sprinkles, right? Yeah. Because we're the same. Our food colourings are the same as Britain and Australia. Our sprinkles are all good. But that's only because you haven't had American sprinkles. I want to get my hands on some of these

American sprinkles. Who is the... There was a candy parallel importer. Martha's Backyard. I wonder if Martha's Backyard has American sprinkles. Illegal sprinkles. Okay, so this is a picture, Megan, of like

that's, look at that, that's like those colours are really vibrant sprinkles. Have you had those like natural sprinkles and they're really pale? Yeah, it's like our Froot Loops. Have you ever seen American Froot Loops? A couple of weeks ago on Reddit,

there was this real international what does yours look like situation and Froot Loops was the big one to come out of that. Like Americans just have these bright, insane Froot Loops. The blue is blue. The red is red. Whereas everybody else is kind of like, it's kind of purpley, kind of bluey, natural.

How dare the government try and look after our house? How dare they tell us what to put in our bodies? Fire is hot. Your smoke alarm loves to look after you. When you look after them, they look after you. Well, you're four times more likely to survive a house fire if you have a working smoke alarm. And to prove that this week, we are asking the Fleets of Wannamagon fire wardens around the country to test their smoke alarms and wake up their flatmates, their families, their boyfriends, their husbands, their partners.

And Sarah joins us. Good morning, Sarah. Morning. Now, Sarah, I think already we've had someone kicked out of a flat this week and someone was in the dog box. Someone was very much in the dog box. Prevailing some serious arguments. Because it turns out people don't like being woken up, Sarah. No, no.

But at the moment, who's asleep in your house? So I've got my partner who is actually his day off work today, so that's great. Yes, and my 11-year-old daughter, who sleeps until about 10am on school holiday morning. Oh, I love this. Okay, well, Sarah, press the smoke alarm test button until they come out. And if you raise them, you win the $250 cash. Okay, all right. I'll just go in there.

I'm a bit nervous because it's a new smoke alarm with a really small button. Oh, okay. You don't have to eat one, do you? Oh, yeah, good, yes. Here we go. Keep it going, keep it going. Yeah, that's good. We've got an 11-year-old getting out of bed.

Hang on. Yeah! What the hell is that? There we go, Sarah. Congratulations. $250 is all yours. Woo-hoo. And everyone's awake. How good.

Yay. Started the day right. Half the day was going to be gone by the time they got out of bed. Exactly. Awesome. Hey, congratulations. And make sure you install smoke alarms in every bedroom, hallway and living area in your home to protect yourself. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Megan.

The Sunday scaries are a thing that you will experience on a Sunday. It's where you start to have anxiety and you're just worried about the rest of the week or the start of the work week. So this has increased during the pandemic. Around 31% of male professionals said the pandemic has caused them to have the Sunday scaries for the first time. But a total of 66% of people that responded to the survey said they experienced stress and anxiousness

on Sundays ahead of the work week. Is it made worse because you've just spent all weekend like Friday and Saturday night boozed up? And like Sundays just come down and you're just like... Yeah. I didn't get done what I wanted to do. I didn't achieve anything. Millennials and Gen Zers have it the worst. Three quarters of each of these age groups said that Sundays don't represent

a day of rest and relaxation because the stress and anxiety kicks in. I've always felt like that and it's not anything to do with work. It's just, I don't know, you feel like Sunday's like a mini Monday and I always have to not do anything Sunday afternoon. It has to be free

because I just mentally prepare myself. I don't know, it's like a weird thing. Yeah, it is weird when people are like, oh, should we do a Sunday afternoon. It has to be free because I just mentally prepare myself. I don't know. It's like a weird thing. Yeah, it is weird when people are like, oh, should we do a Sunday night? No. Dinner? I'm like, nah.

Yeah, I don't like Sunday sessions where in summer people just go to bars and I'll be like, no, no, no, no, no. Even Sunday afternoon? No, no, no. That's when I get my breakfast ready for the week. That's when I'm... Yeah, you're not quite familiar with how early week. That's when I'm... Yeah.

You're not quite familiar with how early I have to get up tomorrow morning. Yeah. But yeah, a lot of people have said the pandemic has made it worse. A lot of people are experiencing the Sunday scaries, the Sunday blues for the first time. 75% of Gen Zers get Sunday scaries. Wow. And then you go to a workplace, apparently if you're a sensitive person, if other people at your workplace are experiencing anxiety

and stuff, you can pass it on. So you can get your anxiety from everyone else at your workplace. Wow. Yeah. So I mean, if you feel that on a Sunday, you're not alone. I don't know how you fix it. Just calm yourself. Is there any bit at the bottom of the article that says here's how to fix that?

Creating wellness in the workplace. It does say that if you know someone at work who is experiencing, don't try and fix them because it can make matters worse. Right. But, yeah, just try and find a nice balance over the weekend. Calm yourself. Or just have a Monday off. Have Mondays off.

Just for everyone. That's a good way. Use your annual leave just have a Monday off. Have Mondays off. Just for everyone. That's a good way. Use your annual leave to have every Monday off. But then that would just become Monday scaries, right? Yeah. I was trying to think of an M word. That would be an interesting way to try using your annual leave one year. Just one day at a time.

Yeah. And then have every week's a lot. Could you spread that out over the whole year? It would have been good in 2021 because we're not going anywhere. No, it depends on how much. Oh wait, how many annual leave days do you get? Four weeks. Four weeks. 20 days.

Nah, wouldn't we have enough for the year, would you? No, you wouldn't. No. That's a depressing way of looking at it. ZM's Flesh Warner Megan. Play ZM. ZM's Flesh Warner Megan Play ZM ZM's $50,000 Secret Sound Season 10 It's season 10 of Secret Sound.

This sound here. What do you think it is? Is it an air fryer? Like what part of it? Like just sizzling away? Like opening the of there? Like just sizzling away? Like opening the basket thing. Hi Brittany.

Did you know that we've already had the guests locking in the basket of an air fryer? Yeah. I was already confident so like I don't have anything else. Right, so you were saying it's the opening, not the locking in of the basket. like, I don't have anything else. Right, but so you're saying it's the opening, not the locking in

of the basket. Yeah, I don't know. Okay. I mean, you can totally go with that. We need specifics, so that's good. I can let you know. Wait, before I tell you, have you got one at home? Have you been testing it out? We have one at home. I didn't even bother to test it.

I mean, why not? I love this. I personally love it. She decided at the start what it was. Yeah. No test required. Someone kind of guessed it. She's like, nope.

It's like the fruit of the loose. I love it. She's staring at it now, just like, nah, I'm not doing it. I'll tell you now, Brittany, though. For 15K, have you won it? I'm going to be honest. I don't even have an air fryer at home. That means I can't make the sound, so it isn't the secret sound.

Ah, Brittany, hard luck. Back to the drawing board. 8 o'clock, your next chance to have a guess if you think you know what that secret sound is. All the guesses that we've had as well, ZM Secret Sound Instagram. Keep an eye out there for the clues and the guesses that we've had as well, ZM Secret Sound Instagram. Keep an eye out there for the clues and the guesses that we've had as well. I think we can successfully ride off air fry too, all together. Absolutely, yeah, we can. Yeah, wow, we've learned there's not one at Soundcapper Owl's house.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We want to talk about next on the show, after Kim Kardashian's let us know again that Nori is just savage to her with who lives like this, who has a White House, who lives like this. We want to talk about the meanest things kids have ever said to you. The meanest. The meanest things I've ever shared. The meanest things, I've said it again, that kids have ever said to you. The meanest.

Meanest. Things. ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan. This happened on Ellen's show. It's her new mum's confession segment. Kim Kardashian sat down and made a whole lot of confessions about being a mum. And one of them was, what is the meanest thing one of your children have ever said to you? Every time I get into some kind of disagreement with my daughter, North, she thinks this is a dig to me.

And she'll say, Your house is so ugly. It's all white. Who lives like this? She just thinks it, like, gets to me. And it is kind of mean. Because I like my house. She thinks it gets to me. And then confirms it does.

I love that she's yelling, though. She's obviously yelling when she sees it. Who lives like this? And it's not the first time. North is is like, obviously so sassy because she's given her shit about her talking voice

when she's not doing Instagram stories. Oh, that was great when she called her out for that. Why do you talk like this? You talk like this. I don't talk like that. Yes, you do.

You know how there's always that when you, especially when you're a teenager, you not like revolt against your parents but You do. Yeah, kind of. I just wanted to stop just short of revolution. There's always the thought of

someone being like lynched in a revolution or a fire or tossing rocks. Was it just that realisation that this is your life soon when your girls become teenagers and revolt against you? Totally, but I was just thinking about how you kind of like take a stand against what your parents stand for just because I'm making my mark as an individual.

When she gets out there, it's going to be a wild ride. I reckon she's going to expose all the Kardashian secrets. Yeah, you're stifling my free will. You're ruining my life. I won't listen to grandmommager. How old is she? She's eight. Jeez, okay.

She's on her way. But yeah, I mean, she's a savage and kids overall are pretty savage. Well, they don't hold back, do they? They say the darndest things. No. Or they say the meanest things. Yeah. The most honest, spiritually crushing things. Did your young girls ever embarrass you with strangers?

No, not really. Oh, things like, there's this, we always talk about it. It's, what that smell? That's our, we say, when we smell something

at our house now, everybody says, what that smell? Because we were somewhere once and August was like little, but she could talk and there was a smelly person and she walked like past him and she was like, but she could talk and there was a smelly person and she walked

like past him and she was like what that smell and like so now and now I ask her when there's anything

good smell bad smell what that smell what did the person I don't know if the person knew they smelt because they smelt

so poorly that if you knew you smelt that bad you'd do something about it yeah right but it was just like and everybody because it was in a fish and chip shop because they smelt so poorly that if you knew you smelt that bad, you'd do something about it. Yeah, right. But it was just like. And everybody, because it was in a fish and chip shop,

everybody stopped. It was like. Everybody else in the fish and chip shop. Even the bit one, the counterweight. And she's like. I feel like she'd keep on going until someone, like, solved the problem for her. What a tash man.

Oh, God. You can't tell little kids off either. You just gotta... Primary school teachers, especially the young end and kindy teachers would just be dealing with... Because, yeah,

these kids haven't learned the social etiquettes yet. They just say they notice something and then they directly respond to it. Yeah, if you were a teacher, you would have

absolutely been like... Sass. Sass by kids. Yeah, so we'd like to know this morning what the meanest thing a kid's ever said to you is. Yeah, especially, well, maybe you've got kids

and they've said something to a stranger in public. Or to you, or maybe you're a teacher. The meanest thing a kid has ever said to you. We want to know the meanest thing a kid's ever said to you after North, Northwest, has sassed her mum Kim again, saying her house is so white nobody lives like this. Rich people do. It could have been way worse for Kim, to be honest.

When North gets on the internet, I'd say it's probably going to get worse. Yeah, it's going to be very highly detained for all of us, isn't it? Sarah, what's the meanest thing a kid's ever said to you? I was on my first teaching placement in a year two class. A kid was smiling and staring at me all day. And then I went up to him later and I was like, oh, what are you smiling at? And then he came up to me just before leaving and he was like,

have you told lots of lies when you were younger because your nose is so big? Were you like detention? Definitely, if he was older than six, sure. Good news though, Sarah. Again, they confirmed it this week. Big nose equals big penis. Great, that's all I could ask for. Oh, Sarah, that's...

Did you, like, what did you say to him? Because you can't, like, cry, can you, in front of a six-year-old? No, I did that later. Oh, yeah. I was in such a shock that I just stood there and, like, was like, OK, back to your desk. Oh, no. Buddy. That's terrible. Sarah, thank to your desk. Oh no. Buddy.

That's terrible. Sarah, thank you for sharing. Melissa, what's the meanest thing your kids ever said to you? Oh, morning guys. My daughter was about four at the time and I was getting changed in a changing room in a shop and took off my pants. I was wearing my G-string and she said to me,

oh mummy, it's a bit sad, isn't it? And I said, oh, what's that, darling? And she said, oh, your bottom's so big it's falling out of your pants. And the worst thing was that this shop assistant was standing outside and she sort of had a little bit of a chuckle and she said, can I get you a larger size, ma'am? And I went, no, no, no, it'll be fine.

Oh, wow. Oh, what would you even say? I feel like that story... We remind her of it often. Yeah, nice. I feel like that story is then going to be relayed

by your daughter again at a party or something. Yeah. It's falling out of her eye there. Melissa, thanks for sharing some messages in. Ruthless is what we are. Some Instagram responses that people sent in. I was reading a book to a child and they said,

no, you need to sing this book. So I started singing and the child said, maybe we'll just read it. Oh my God. Love it. Mowing the lawns last week and a kid said, hey you, old man, what are you doing? I'm 22 years old. Old man.

Old man. A kid said to me once, are you her grandmother? You look old enough to be her grandmother. I said, no, I'm her mother. I'm her mother. I'm a preschool teacher. I've always had acne. I've had multiple kids say, what's the bumps on your face?

What is with the bumps on your face? That's always hits. Somebody else said when I was a student teacher at a preschool, my associate teacher got called a sweaty ball bag by a three-year-old because she said he couldn't sit at the Play-Doh table

at mealtime. You're a sweaty ball bag. But see, that kid's heard that somewhere. That's not one of those things that a kid's just observed something and commented on it. They've definitely... Yeah, that's an heard that somewhere. That's not one of those things that a kid's just observed something and commented on it.

They've definitely. Yeah, that's an older brother or something. Yeah, yeah. I got asked why I had a Norton Crosses grid on my forehead. That's just wrinkles. Oh, my God. I'm a nanny, so I've got heaps of stories. I've had a four-year-old tell me I look like a fat potato with potato boobs.

But the most cringeworthy was the time a kind old lady who had just bought her a treat and I said, what do you say? And she said, you are old and will die soon. She said, no! No! What do you say when someone gives you some? No!

You are old and you will die soon. Bury me. That's amazing. Yeah. Bury me That's amazing Yeah A kid came up to me once And asked why I have such a big head And I said because I've got such a big brain And then he fired back

As quick as If you've got such a big brain Why do you work here? I was working at a food truck at the time. Oh my God. How does a kid

get that savage? We just wouldn't know what to say. My nephew sitting in the front of the trolley said to the cashier at the supermarket, how long do you

stay in the bath for? And the checkout operator was like, oh, I don't have a bath mmm how are you so wrinkly then

oh I knew where that was going yeah um I'm a teacher and kids are so mean it's stuff like

why do you wear the same dress so often do you not have enough clothes are you poor oh my god and if I had to describe you

I would just tell people to keep an eye out for the clumsy one who's very forgetful. Oh, my God. Oh, no. I'm enjoying it so much because it's true. It would hurt my feelings so much. I'd get fired for saying something really savage back to them. Yeah.

Wow. I'm a nanny. I took my glasses off and a three-year-old started hysterically laughing in my face and said, you look like a man without glasses on.

The five-year-old said to me on the first day, they got really close and were like looking at me and said, do you have a mustache? Oh my God. And then a four-year-old

said, do you have any photos of when you were younger? And I showed him a photo and he said, you are ugly any photos of when you were younger? And I showed him a photo, and he said, you are ugly with short hair. Oh, jeez. Good to know, though.

Good to know they might have thought the pixie cut was them, and they were going to go back to it. Oh, my God. Savage. All right, 723. Why did we stop being allowed to smack him? Get it on Neon. Please vote on Megan's top picks.

And I would say my favourite streaming platform. So much great stuff on there. All the HBO stuff.

We've talked about the new season of Curb. Curb your enthusiasm. Succession coming soon. But we're each going to give you a... Did you see the photo of Greg and Tom at the Succession premiere? Yeah. And they were... You've watched Succession, haven't you?

I started season one. You know Greg and Tom? Yeah. Cousin Greg. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Tom is married to Siobhan. Throughout the seasons, they got a weird relationship, but they were hugging each other in a photo,

and it generally made me quite happy. Great show. So we're going to give you a pick from Neon, something you can stream over the weekend. Vaughn, you start. I want to recommend White Lotus. This was talked about an insane amount. Mid this year.

We're always at the end of the year. Mid this year. We're almost at the end of the year. Mid this year. Created by a guy called Mike White, who's done like only comedy, mostly comedy stuff. You'll see him and you'll be like, I reckon that's that guy. He's not in it though.

He just created it. This, I think, review sums it up the best. Funny and painful, White Lotus focuses on a Hawaiian hotel full of rich white people and those that serve them. It's a fascinating series in which people aren't good or bad so much as they are self-involved with stellar

performances. Welcome to the White Lotus. You have to treat these people like sensitive children. Big smiles. Wave, Lonnie. Wave like you mean it. Especially with these VIPs. I brought my mother's ashes with me so I could spread them in the ocean. I'm going to need a boat.

We have our resort boat you can charter. Can I get some alcohol on the boat? Of course. Some fruit and cheese, maybe? I think I'm going to be a little emotional. But let's definitely order the cheese. She is amazing. Jennifer Coolidge. order the cheese. She is amazing. Jennifer Coolidge.

Yeah, wow. Oh, that boat trip. Yeah. It is a love or hate show. Like, some people can't get into it because it's kind of dark comedy.

The characters aren't particularly likeable. No. But then they are, kind of. But maybe relatable in some aspects. But that Australian accent

you heard in there, that's a guy called Murray Bartlett who plays Armand. Armand, yeah. He's amazing. Just a phenomenal character. And that guy acts the hell out of that role. I'm going to recommend Gangs of London. Not a new, new show, but last year,

and I feel like it kind of went a bit under the radar, about the head of a London crime family, London. Not a new, new show, but last year, and I feel like it kind of went a bit under the radar. About the head of a London crime family, a dad who dies, and then kind of the power struggle to fill that, and it's action galore. 91% on Rotten Tomatoes.

8.1 out of 10 on IMDb. Very good. Some of the people you'll recognise. Heaps of familiar faces. Tons, tons of them. Who's the mum from Game of Thrones? Who was the... Caitlin Stark.

Yeah, Caitlin Stark. I don't know her real name. She's Caitlin Stark. Caitlin Stark, yeah. She's the mum again in this one. Totally. We're big fans of whodunits on the show, and this is a movie that I'd like to recommend on Neon.

It's called The Dry. So it's an Australian movie about a murder that hasn't been solved. It's all over town that you're reopening the investigation. Aaron, you need to be here for the funeral. We're expecting you. You're going to be exceeded it. What do you think? You lied back then, Aaron.

Luke lied as well. The day that poor girl drowned. So Eric Banner plays the main guy and he goes back home to his town in Australia in the outback to attend a funeral. But when he goes back, it opens the door to an unsolved death. 89% Rotten Tomatoes. That's good. Yeah, okay. You'd like it. And one of the reviews says it's an engaging whodunit that's worth a watch.

This is how you put a whodunit into two hours. Well, you can sign up now for your 14-day free trial at neontv.co.nz. T's and Z's apply.

This is a scientific research group. You'd think

they'd have other things to do, but they have revealed the months of the year which produce the sexiest people. So they have based this on its celebrities, 500 of the world's sexiest celebs. Okay. And when they've been ranked like the sexiest on people's lists and things like that.

Okay. So I can tell you where each month of the year ranks in terms of sexiness. The number one is by quite a large margin. So. Okay. Start at the bottom of the list. So it's the list of 12.

Okay. Let's start at the least of the list. So it's a list of 12. Okay. Let's start at the least attractive month. The least attractive month. So if you don't call them the ugliest month. They're not ugly. They're all beautiful. They're just... They're all beautiful.

Least attractive celebrities. There's someone out there for everybody. Yeah. June. Oh! Ha ha, ugly. That's my birthday. Ugly people.

That's my month. Just the least sexiest. June has the least sexiest celebrities of any most sexy list ever. That is unbelievable. How rude. I'm technically... You're keeping up

the average, surely. I'm so close to July though, Megan. What's July? Next, 11th. That's your month. Working with a couple of poo bags. Okay, May. Working with a guy. February better not be next.

But even if it is, it's still better than you lot. 10th on the list is May. 33 celebs. Take that, May. January is number nine. Okay. 35 celebrities. Eighth is November. January is number nine. Okay. 35 celebrities. Eighth is November.

October is seventh. Sixth is March. Oh, my God. 42 celebrities. I'm top 50% now. You're top five. I'm top five. I'm like, wham, wham.

Yeah. Number five is September. That's when the most people are born, right? I thought that would be, oh, in New Zealand. In New Zealand. So it would flip for this northern hemisphere. No, not necessarily. No?

Not necessarily because it's a New Year's, Christmas New Year's. It's a Christmas New Year. It's still festive up there and it's cold in the northern hemisphere. So probably even more people are born up there. I would have thought September would have been it. Because, you know, sometimes in New Zealand at that time of the year, it's hot. So part of them would just be like, get off me. It's too hot for this.

Whereas in America, you's too hot for this. Whereas in America you're snuggling for warmth. So top four, December is number four. 47 celebrities. So these are the celebrities that are the most sexiest. From each month.

Yeah. So number three Here we go. is February. I'll take it. That's a bronze medal. Your top three. That was worth all the training.

So 49 celebrities they consider to be sexy are born in February. That's such a bad because we've only got 28 days. Yeah. You know, we're punching per day. Per day? Right, New Zealand loves a per capita. Per day, we're the sexiest month. Second is August, 51 celebrities.

51 celebrities. Wow. And then we jump to the number one month where the most sexy people are born is April. 60 celebrities who are considered sexy and have been on sexy lists. Who's normally born in April? I don't know. Emma Watson is April. She's always on those lists.

Classic beauty too. Yeah. Michael Fass. I've just got April celebrity birthdays. Michael Fassbender. Yeah. On April April celebrity birthdays. Michael Fassbender. Yeah. On April 2nd. He's a good looking chap.

Dalai Lama's not known for his beauty, Megan. Dalai Lama's not like on a Nivea ad or like pimping beauty products.

How rude. Hi, I'm the Dalai Lama and Kim Kardashian sent me a pair of Spanx. It holds it all in. Hashtag ad. Skims and then I chuck over those robes over it and you can't even see my little paunch. Play ZM's Flash Phone and Megan. My pick for Friday flashback is Minutes Away after Secret Sound.

It is a New Zealand number one song. It was number one this very week in 1995. Yesterday after work, I was dropping off some groceries to my father-in-law, who lives close to Fletch. So really, Fletch could have probably got us groceries. Oh, I'm not saying yes to that so it becomes a regular thing. While you're there, just nipping down. While you're just nipping down to the market,

could you grab this, that, and the other thing? So I went in, and I came out, and I'd locked my car, and the Honda, the key doesn't work. The key doesn't go in the keyhole. It goes in, but it won't turn. It's apparently a problem. But I've got this proximity card thing that has batteries in it, and when you're close enough, you've just got to bend the card just right

and then open the door handle, and the car will open. Now, don't bend it too much or you'll break it, and then I've got no way of getting in. Right. So I accidentally left that in the car when I got out. It's in my wallet. Why don't you just get a key? I didn't take my wallet because I took my...

No, because it's not a key problem. Plus, I don't know if I've said, I'm getting a new car. Yeah, but it's on a ship. It's on order. It's coming at the end of the year. Okay. So I don't want to put anything into this car. Because is this...

Every time I fill it up with petrol, I'm like, bloody thing. It's another tank. I wish you could do one tank for the rest of the year. Because this car is only just holding on. No, it's mechanically very sound. I've been told that. It looks like shit and its accessories are toasted. What's that thing that's dragging underneath?

I don't know. I saw it in the car park the other day. That's from the day when I hit the thing on the road. Okay. That was a while ago. Yeah. Well, I keep whacking.

I've taken a whole bit off that was like dragging on the road, but then that thing fell down and that every time I'll go into a supermarket, like because the bumper's high, but this thing hangs low, I'll drive over that little thing

that tells you to stop. And then when I back out, it gets caught on that, and it makes this big... When it hits the ground, and everyone in the supermarket looks. They're like, something's dragging. I'm like, don't worry about it. And I drive away. But as I say...

Effort. I'm not even cleaning this car before I... I don't even know what I'm going to do with it. Wreck it. When I get my new car. You're not going to be able to sell this. My friend Callum was like, oh, I'll sell it for you. I'll do like one of those $1 reserves.

Yeah. I was like, oh my God, that's my worst nightmare, dealing with people who want to buy a car for a dollar. Yeah. They come around, they're like, oh, it's not what I was expecting. It was a dollar. Yeah. It started at a dollar! Yeah. It started at a dollar!

What were you expecting? Yeah. So I got out, I got back to the car, and I was like, oh, shit, it's locked. And I was like, the card is in the car, which previously has been close enough to the sensor to get it to open, but you'll remember you have to have it bent

in a certain way to get the sensor to work. So I messaged Fletch, and I said, I've locked myself out of my car. You don't happen to have a wire coat hanger. And he said, I'm away. You have a wire coat hanger? I know. I have all plastic, but once I got a shirt back from the dry cleaners and it was in a suit bag, I found it. Do you want to back it?

There it is. No, I don't want it back. So, yeah, we broke into the Honda. I used my pocket knife. People are always like, why do you carry a knife? Carrying a pocket knife is so handy in so many ways. So I used the pocket knife to get into the door

and then just like wedge it open enough to get the coat hanger through. Like the plastic seal, the rubber seal's all cut now. Who cares? As I said, this car's not forever. And the, how about when we're doing it, this guy pulls in and he's like, trying to get into the car here, boys.

And we turn around and we're like, yep. Yep. I've got into a few cars in my time. What you want is that plastic packing tape. You know that packing tape? Yeah. That does work because it's kind of stiff enough to push through and really thin and you loop it over and you get it around the knob. I'm telling everybody how to steal a car.

Yeah, you are. And I love that he wasn't at all concerned that you were stealing a car. He's like, I've got a few cars. So you push it in, you pull it around the knob and then you just kind of lean back and pull the knob up and back at the same time it pops up. But that's all we managed to do with the coat hanger. It was so embarrassing just standing there watching him do it.

Which stood away. What was that scooter? You were on a purple scooter. Yeah. And he stood away kind of like looking, but at the same time not wanting to be too closely associated. Yeah, I was just like, oh. I'm just going to knife in the door and I'm pulling it back and I'm like,

yeah, but you did it pretty quick. Yeah. Impressive. It's the Moronsville in me. Impressive. Yeah. The mobile meth lab in the back of my car hardly, you know, was disturbed. You've got to stay true to your roots, you know.

Moronsville massive. But do you want this coat hanger back? No, absolutely not. No. Cool. I'm going to hide this somewhere on the outside of my car. Oh, my God. Yes.

Put it underneath. Yeah. You know that little thing cars have So if you crash into a ditch They can hook it and pull you out of the ditch I'm going to do it around that Yes, I am offering the challenge Of someone to steal my car Yeah, if you see a buggered black Honda Accord

time radio. Thank you. Real time secret sound. We're alive. Not delayed coverage. No. Soundkeeper Owls joins us for $15,000. Megan, what do you think that sound is? I think it's the click of a

computer mouse. Ooh, okay. Can we hear the sound one more time? Chunky. What are your thoughts on that? Yeah? Very chunky. It has to be very amplified, right?

Super. Yeah. I guess all mouse clicks would sound different as well. Maybe Megan has a chunky mouse. All right. It's time to speculate on Megan's mouse. Mouse shatter. No, I'm not judging.

You can have a chunky mouse. Megan, have you been following? Oh, so yes, you have been following the clues, I guess, in the podcast. How did you think that connected? Well, I heard the podcast this morning and it was the clue, buy now, use later. And it made me think, oh, after pay. And it just made me think of online shopping. And I thought that could be the mouse clicking.

Okay. I like that connection. That's very good. Sometimes people are like, ah, I don't know. So that's good. You've thought about it. Well, I'll tell you now, Megan, $15,000. All you had to do was correctly guess the secret sound. And unfortunately, that's not the secret sound. All right, Megan, we're back to the drawing board. 11 o'clock is the next chance. Why don't you give me a clue? Oh, clue. Are we getting a clue?

Not now, but yes, at 5pm with Brie and Clint. I thought I'd get you guys excited for the clue later on. Teaser. Okay, so 5 o'clock with Brie and Clint. Thanks, Owls, for your next clue. Friday Flashback. But right now, it's Friday Flashback. It's my turn this week.

Yeah, all right, Big Daddy. Give it to us. I know that you're excited about this Friday Flashback. We're going back. Do you two need a room? So I can get out of this one. We are going back to 1995. This was the number one single this very week in 1995.

Beating out Mariah Carey, Fantasy. Janet Jackson, Runaway. This was the number one single this very week in 1995. Beating out Mariah Carey, Fantasy. Janet Jackson, Runaway. You Are Not Alone, Michael Jackson. Wow. Two Jacksons in the top five. TLC, Waterfalls was number six. Yeah, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.

What a week. What Bone Thugs song? First of the month. Not familiar. And the Rembrandts, I'll Be There For You, The Friends theme was in the charts still. It was number 15. So the number one song was number one here in New Zealand. Also El Salvador.

Is that a good song? El Salvador. It actually was number one in the US. It was number one in the top 100 in the US for a week. Same in the UK. Number one in Australia. This was the first song. I had not heard of this artist before this song. Yeah, it was number, I'd say top five.

It was either one, two or three in most countries around the world. In New Zealand, it was the third biggest song of the entire year in 1995. And you hear it now and you're like, really? It was also, and Vaughan remembers this as well, it was in an ad for Levi's, which was made in the UK, big over there, but it also played here. It was for double-stitched Levi's. It was like stop-motion claymation ad for these jeans. Yeah.

Okay. And then he won a 96 and then again in 2019 he won. He did a reggae album with Sting from the Police. Really? Someone say the backing vocals are just a chick going, ah. It was number one, Megan. I don't see you with a number one song. Can you put, I want to hear the backing vocals.

You're mine, Mr. Boombaster. Thank you. Thank you. Love it. Don't make that face, Megan. Is that the best compliment you've had this week? It is, actually. Thank you.

What a funky Friday flashback. I wasn't alive when this came out, but it's epic. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. You have to pay more for car insurance. Someone said, this is exactly what my morale needed this morning. What a vibe. All positive.

I was really expecting to get absolutely slated for this pick. No way. What a nice surprise that is. Ahead of the weekend. It's got it on your box. It says I'm Mr. Romantic. Exactly. We now cross to the producer's booth where Executive Intern Anya is absolutely chomping at the bit.

She is fizzing. Fizzing. Fizzed. Because her recent, you've just moved there. And you've just found out something is getting added to your neighbourhood. Oh, yeah. It's good times on the coast. We are getting a briscoes.

Ayo. Previously, where did a coaster, this is the HBC, the Hibiscus Coast. Yeah. Not the Kapiti Coast. No. Very far. Where did your coasters have to go for a brisket? All the way to Albany.

Now that's for 20 minutes. That's a long way to go for discounted glassware and linens, isn't it? It is. Yeah, so I was driving yesterday and I saw that iconic shade of blue and then I saw they were putting up the letters.

Hang on. Were they going backwards? Yeah, they were going backwards. S-E-O. No, they start from the middle. Why do they go backwards? They started from the far right. No, but what if you start at the end, you might run out of space.

No, they're starting from the middle, Fletch. I thought you said the end. No, they started from the end. It's the end, Coase. Yeah. There's two S's in Briscoes. Oh. Bris.

Well, I can't help you there. I don't know what they're doing. Well, it might only be a Briscoe if they ran out of space. A Scoes. No, I mean a Riscoes. A Riscoes. They go backwards. Yes.

You're off brand Briscoes. So they're putting up the signage. Is it all ready to rumble? I think so. Do you think the lady's going to do the opening, the Briscoe's lady? I'll lose my shit if I meet Tammy. No, she can't come to Auckland.

Is she not Auckland based? No, she's Christchurch based. Another thing we've been robbed of. Sike. An official opening. Maybe they'll do, like, a soft opening and then a hard opening with the Briscoe's lady later. I need her there with the scissors and the ribbon.

Yeah, that'd be lovely. But you're saying that people are going absolutely crazy on the local Facebook page. The town is a-hermin. Whereabouts is it going in? Silverdale. It's a hot, up-and-coming area. Silverdale's a big industrial area.

It's a new Ponsonby. Well! It's Ponsonby with more parking. Right. Well, it gave us the idea of there's a lot of stuff happening outside of big, dumb COVID news. And it doesn't get the attention. It doesn't.

That the exciting news that a Briscoe's opening gets. Let's get fizzed. Let's hear some positive news from the regions, from your area, in a new segment. Fletchvorn and Megan's Local Reporter. Where you call us from your town or city or neighborhood and tell us the big news. And what's everyone fizzed about?

Preferably like good news. Yeah, and no, even if it's small, and you might think insignificant. No story small, too small. No story is too small here at Fletch Vaughan and Megan's Local Reporter. Yeah. We want to hear about shop openings. That's all.

We are that pointless community midweek paper that you get in the mail. Maybe you're getting a new mural. Yeah. That'll get the rate payers jazzed. I don't want my rates going towards us. Yeah, or maybe

you're getting a new rainbow pedestrian crossing. Yes. Rate payers love those. Love it. So we want you to call us right now 0800 DALES AT M.

You can text in 9696 and report the local news from your neighbourhood. Give us a story. What's happening? What's the local goss? That's the big news from your neighbourhood. Give us a story. What's happening? What's the local goss?

It's the big news. What's everyone talking about? Some happy news. Yeah. CDM's Fletch Vaughan and Megan. Fletch Vaughan and Megan's Local Reporter. Yes, that's right. Launching a new segment called Local Reporter.

Executive intern Anya, her neighbourhood getting a brisk goes. And this is big news. Not the kind of news that ends up on the TV1 or the TV3 6 o'clock news. No. They don't care about the stuff like that. We do. And we are. I tell you what, you have responded.

Oh, what is the big news in your local area with Local Reporter? Let's start across for our first local report to Eva. Good morning, Eva. Hi. Hi. Now what's the big news in your area? There's a Costco opening up in Westgate.

Drive past it every day, Eva. I'm monitoring its build. I see they've put the lights in this week. Yeah. Okay, this is fantastic news. It's huge. Because this is that big thing that's in Australia and America,

and you go and buy bulk buy stuff. You pay $60 or whatever to belong to the club, and then you get these insane discounts on everything. That's exciting. Eva, we'd like you to sign off. Thanks, Fletch, Fletch, Morton, Megan. I'm Eva for the...

Local reporter. Yeah, Eva, the local reporter. Something like that, maybe. Thanks, Fletch, Morton and Megan. Bye from the local reporter, Eva. Yeah! Said the very high bar! You have said a very high bar.

Very high bar. GSL local reporter, Ash Burden, come in with the local breaking news. Ash Burden's getting a Kmart. Are those cows, Jess? Yeah, I'm in a calf paddock. I love this. We did have a segment where we were trying to get cows

to move a while ago. Yeah, they wouldn't, famously, but now they'll do it without being asked to. Yeah, they'll do it this time because they're hungry and they think I provide food. I'm actually in the neighbouring paddock of wheat and I don't feed them. Right, now, Jess, tell us more about this Kmart. I tell you what, Jess, this would be the most supplied piece of local news

we've received on the text machine. Every Ashbert night is messaging in about the Kmart. So we cross to Jess for the full rundown. Jess. Well, I mean, there's a big sign in front of the new countdown that we've got that there's a flash new Kmart coming. And, you know, you drive past it, just watch them walls come up, the foundation being laid and just coming along nicely.

You know that those savings are imminent, aren't they? Jess. Those copper wire baskets. Jess, now I've also heard the Timaru, the people of Timaru are absolutely livid that Ash Burden's going to come out before them. Can you report to that? Yeah, I think they should be.

And it's about time Ash Burden got something for Timaru. Any words to anybody from Timaru listening this morning? No, no, I see. I don't value what they're saying. Tell them to suck it, Jess. Tell them to suck it, Jess. Tell them to suck it. Yeah, yeah, right, Simmer. You hear that there?

You can suck it. We're getting a K-mark. You're not. Oh, Jess, the war of words has kicked off. We'd like you to sign off now, Jess. Thanks, Fletch, Warner, Megan, and that is breaking news from Ashburton. Yes!

We cross now to Huntley Anonymous. Our anonymous reporter joins us. What's the breaking news in Huntley? So it's still in talks at the moment, but there's a lot of chat in the discussion pages about asking council to revamp the Decker sign. Oh! Now, do you think the council will bother now that we bypass you?

Well, it's hoping that it'll be the new LMP bottle, but for Huntley. This is very, I was going to say, more now than ever it needs the revamp to get people off that. Yeah, wonderful bypass that saves me 25 minutes. Anonymous reporter, could you please sign off? Thanks, Lachlan and Megan. That's our news from Huntley. Yes, thank you, anonymous reporter. Good morning, Catherine Tupuki. Good morning.

Massive breaking news from Tupuki. Waipuna Hospice Shop is having its relocation celebration at 200 Jellicoe Street, and we're having a sausage sizzle. It feels more like an advertorial than an actual news. It feels like our journalistic integrity has been compromised by the big dollar. You don't see Wendy Petrie breaking down

to chuck in a hello, fresh, bloody coat, do you? She should, though. I think it was more about the sausage sizzle. Yeah, right. So, whereabouts is the sausage sizzle, Catherine? Sausage sizzle, Waipuna Hospice Shop, Interpookie, 200 Jellicoe Street, 10 o'clock till 3pm. Check us out on Facebook, Interpookie Hospice Shop.

This is Suzanne Paul, our tea- Pookie Suzanne Paul on the phone. Sign off, Catherine. This is Catherine signing off for a way. Pooner, Hosby Shop, Two Pookie. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Jellicoe Street. Yeah, Jellicoe Street. Yeah, it's good on you, Jellicoe.

200 Jellicoe Street. See, I even know where the bloody thing is now. Bloody award for the most plugs inserted into a live news report. Yeah, that was really well done. That was really well done. Messages in from our reporters in the field. Good morning, ZM. In the wonderful Bay of Plenty town of Kati Kati,

we have had mushrooms, giant blow-up mushrooms installed in the park. Oh, okay. That sounds like some art installation. And, oh, more news. Civil news from Kati Kati. No official word yet, but it looks like they're putting a roundabout

in an opposite countdown. Oh, is it not okay but it looks like they're putting a roundabout in an opposite countdown. Oh, is it not okay with that? Honestly, I love a roundabout. I prefer a roundabout over a big traffic light. Yeah, because sometimes you're waiting at the traffic lights and there's nothing there. If that was a roundabout, you'd be able to go through. But then with roundabouts, there's always a favoured direction which can cause traffic backlog at one of the ons. Well, life's not perfect, Vaughan.

You could be at a red for two minutes, three minutes. I'd rather hustle on a roundabout. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Scoot in. I'm a hustler. I'm a hustler, baby. What? Someone said, hello, Fletch from the Megan Local reporter from Queenstown here.

Queenstown's getting its first Greek restaurant. Oh, lovely. Wow. Hello. Yeah. That's a surprise that hasn't happened sooner. Yum. Dry lamb lovely. Wow. Hello. Yeah. That's a surprise that hasn't happened sooner. Yum.

Dry lamb. Big fan. What? Dry lamb? Yeah, you've got to they make the lamb dry so you've got to go nuts on the mint yogurt.

Which I'm all about the mint yogurt but I'm just saying you're making a you're making a meatball. Put more fat in the meatball and it won't dry out. No, I think you've had

some bad lamb there. I don't think you've had some bad lamb there. I don't think you should tarnish every Greek restaurant with dry lamb. If you've got moist Greek balls, I'll be more than happy to try them. There you go. You've heard it here first with the Fleeche Warner Megan local reporter. If you've got some moist lamb balls. Vaughan's all about it. Greek, though.

Yeah. I want them to still have that Greek, because don't get me wrong, I love the Greek seasoning and I love the mint and yogurt dip. But I find your balls are a bit dry. Jesus. That's our local report for this week. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughn and Megan.

Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Now, I just wanted to give a quick hello-sy doozy to Michael O'Hagan. Okay. Why? Michael O'Hagan. Michael. Oh, good morning. Top of the morning to you.

Michael O'Haganagen I don't know Is he Irish? It sounds I mean is he Irish? He's very At least Gotta have Yeah

Family from Ireland Listen to your fact of the day About alpacas and turkeys It's a very similar thing If you have a herd of bulls In the same paddock There will be one bull That is considered the weakest link

And constantly ridden And bullied To the point of death What? A weird solution is to put a billy goat or a male donkey in with the bull. They'll pull rank and defend the weak bull. Ah. Yeah.

So if you ever see like a paddock, because generally like bull farms, they'll keep the bull separate. Because these dudes, you think it's bad when you go clubbing with these dudes with open shirts and white open shirts and fake tans. It's an absolute testosterone rage-based gym bra sausage fest. Bulls are like that. Toxic masculinity in the field. Yeah, except people want bull semen. Okay.

That's the difference. They do flitch. They genetically pick them to be the strongest breed to continue a line of strong cows. So they said winter bulls here, so they have bulls on their place at winter, They genetically picked them to be the strongest breed to continue a line of strong cows. So they said, we want winter bulls here. So they have bulls on their place at winter. And they kept half a dozen asses around to keep them in line.

And apparently the donkeys are super cruisy because, you know, I've wanted a donkey to add to the menagerie. I've wanted a mini-etsu donkey. Don't they hee-haw all the time? Me too. Shut up, you. hee-haw all the time? Me too. Shut up. Hee-haw. Hee-haw.

Hee-haw. But I want miniature ones. Yep. He said they're really great pets. Do it then. So that was pretty much. So that's your fact of the day. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's just a supplementary fact of the day.

Jesus. Today's fact of the day is about. We hardly had time for that. Today's fact of the day is about... We hardly had time for that. Today's fact of the day is about contra-rotating thumbs. Okay. Okay, no, carry on. It's completely unrelated to... Oh, okay.

It's completely unrelated to Michael O'Hagan's fact of the day. Well, why don't we just go with Michael O'Hagan's fact and make that the fact of the day? Totally. And then you save that for Monday. I'm all about easy... That's economy of work. Yeah, no, that's... That's working smarter, not harder. So today's fact of the day. Totally saves me. And then you save that for Monday. I'm all about easy. That's economy of work. Yeah, no.

That's working smarter not harder. So today's fact of the day thanks to Michael O'Hagan. Top of the morning to you. Michael O'Hagan. Say hello to your father

Paddy O'Hagan and your mother Sinead O'Hagan. Did you just say that because of Sinead O'Connor? No, I just know Sinead's like the Irish name, right? Yeah.

Today's fact of the day from Michael O'Hagan. Michael O'Hagan. You know O'Hagan. Yeah, yeah. You know the O'Hagans. You sold the pub. Okay. Did a rip and trade.

O'Hagan's pub, they called it. Not the most creative people, the O'Hagans. Good people, though. So were their people. Good Catholics. Okay, Karen. Wouldn't hurt a fly. Today's fact of the day.

No, apart from his brother. I forgot about Jack O'Hagan. Bad egg. Today's fact of the day. From Michael O'Hagan. From Michael O'Hagan. From Michael. Good old Michael O'Hagan.

You should put a donkey in with the bulls. Lay behind. He's a four-leaf clover, that O'Hagan boy. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Ah, skiddly-dee-dee, skiddly-doo-dah, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, skiddly-doo-dah-dah, doo-doo-doo-doo-day. CDM's Fletchborn and Megan. Mega Vaxathon-errific day tomorrow.

Super Saturday. Super Saturday Vaxathon. Yeah, you can watch this on TV3 tomorrow from midday until 6. And basically a day tomorrow where we have to urge everybody we know that has not yet had their first shot or maybe their second if they've been three weeks or more to get it. You can get it on a 787.

Yeah, so cool. In New Zealand, you're parking up a Dreamliner so you can get a tour of the, what are they? Business class. Oh, the hangar and business class. They'll give you a special commemorative boarding pass. Cool. I know, are you like, I wish I'd got it?

Yeah. You're going to go along and just before they do the jab, be like, I've actually had one. I just wanted to do this. I just wanted to sit in business class. Can I go for my food? Yeah. So loads of people involved.

Yeah, and joining us on the show now from the project is Jesse Mulligan. Good morning. Kia ora, guys. Nice to be on. Yeah, we play ads on this radio station. I look forward to them. Something that works.

When you're talking, Vaughan. Hang around and you'll hear. Hey, me and loads of others from Three tomorrow, I've got to say it's unclear how much appeal I personally have among the rangatahi of New Zealand, but look, someone's got to do the admin and I'm there to help. So it's going to be fun. Have you had both of yours?

I have had my second one yesterday. You've worn, because I had a look at the ZM page and I see all the stars of the radio station are photographed. There's Carl, there's Megan, there's Bree, there's Clint. Yeah. And that's it.

Well, I'm holding out for some sort of incentive from the government. I've had my first one. I'm getting my second after the show today. So what happened there? I've got a freckly, hairy upper arm that apparently was so repulsive to people they thought it might put them off getting vaccinated. Also, Vaughan didn't reply to the email where they said, everybody send a photo of you with your arm.

I'm going to do it today. I'm doing it today. With the actual official vaccination process. You could wait till tomorrow. I mean, part of the fun of tomorrow is that everyone's doing it at the same time. There's going to be Kai and, you know, free ice creams and sausage sizzles. By the way, if you've ever eaten from a Kiwi sausage sizzle, you do not need to worry about what's in the vaccine.

If you've ever eaten a sizzler. You're going to have a ticker on screen so you can see how many people are getting vaccinated and watch it go up. Kind of like those old telephones. You remember the telephones. That was so much fun. I remember you'd always ring up the 0800 line

and the host would have to do something. Like you'd make Simon Barnett eat a raw egg or something and hope he didn't get salmonella. And it was all for $2. And I never dreamed that I would be one of those hosts. Simon Barnett eat a raw egg or something and hope he didn't get salmonella. Did he? Yeah. And it was all for $2. And I never dreamed that I would be one of those hosts. I think, to be realistic, I'm probably less in the category of visiting Hollywood star and more in the category of middle-aged man

who gets a face painted on his stomach. But still, just great to be involved. Can someone ring up and be like, hey, I'll get vaccinated if Jesse Mulligan does something? I don't know if we're doing pledges, but we're up for it. And I spoke to Ashley Bloomfield last night. He's like, I will do whatever it takes to get people vaccinated. So it's going to be worth having the TV on tomorrow.

It's in the afternoon and it's going to be beautiful weather right around the motu tomorrow. So, you know, chuck the TV on, watch what people are up to. And if you're eligible for either your first or your second, get it done. Now, is your wife concerned? Because in 1998, this week host Lisa Gibbons fell in love with Coronation Street's Christopher Quentin when they were both here taking part in the telephone. Oh.

Yeah. I have looked at the other presenters involved, and I do not think my wife is in any danger, although I've seen those photos of Mike McRoberts and flesh and blood. I mean, he's got to be a constant threat to everybody. Absolutely, yeah. He's like the shark in the ocean, you know? You know that he's there, and you're worried about it.

Well, Super Saturday Vax-a-thon, you can catch it all from midday until six tomorrow, broadcast live on three. GC Mulligan, thank you so much for chatting to us this morning on Commercial Radio. We're about to blow some ads, so you stay there and little mini dramas for a business.

For a business, and they sell products. Because normally every time I hear you on Radio New Zealand, it's when I go home to visit my parents, and you're always talking about native bird sanctuaries or unions. Or books. Or books. You've got always on about books.

So smart. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. A new dating term called icing. It's just another catchy term for some bad behaviour in the dating world. And icing is basically when you put someone on ice. So you're getting excuses like, I can't be with you right now. But some signs that you are a victim of icing

is your partner's behavior is confusing and you're never sure where you stand with them. They disappear once in a while and then return like nothing happened. Oh my God, hi. Hi, how's it going? Where have you been? They can't commit to you or make things exclusive.

You get lots of last date, last minute date cancellations and then you feel relief from, you feel relief when you hear from them again. Right, so they're icing you, they're being cold. Yeah. Putting you on ice. In other words, they're just not that into you. Yeah. I mean. So if that's, they're just not that into you. Yeah. I mean.

So if that's happening and you're being iced. They, when they're lonely and when they feel like it, they'll come back to you. You're better than that. You are better than that.

You feel like you're being iced. You are better than that. I am better than that. Wait, do you want me to say it back? Because I don't know if you are. No, I was like talking to someone listening.

You know who would never, ever dream of this? What? Michael O'Hagan. He's a good Catholic boy he and Michael was raised right
