Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, welcome to the Fleeche Fauna Megan with Hayley Sproul podcast by 5 McCafe Coffees. Get one free on the Maccas app. Reading a story here about a councillor offering a refund to a citizen. Did you see the story? He was insulted by the rainbow stairs in Upper Hutt. What? So they love the Upper... It's very...
Starting point is 00:00:19 Because it's Pride Month in Wellington at the moment. Much like a lot of places around the country and world, like Rainbow, they have rainbow pedestrian crossings or paint things in the rainbow flag. What kind of councillor? Like a guidance councillor? Or like a city councillor? No, a city councillor.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Yeah, I was like, what is this councillor? No, so somebody complained and said, as ratepayers to the Upper Hutt City Council, 45 years, could you please inform us why the council building steps have been painted in the colours? Yeah. And they find it totally offensive, yada, yada, yada. Why do they find it offensive? They're homophobic, are they? Well, yeah, to us, the rainbow is a promise from God.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Oh. And Genesis said it'd never flood the earth. I await your reply. And to which the counselor worked out he'd be entitled to, I believe, just under 50 cents. Well, yeah, because you'd say every rate payer, it costs this much money divided by every rate payer. And then that person's specific part of rates. Exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:20 So I believe he's offered to give him a, and I think it worked out to be five cents, but because we don't have five cent coins, he said, I'll round it up. It'll even give you a 50 if you want that. Right. Wow. Great response.
Starting point is 00:01:34 And so people are jumping on this saying, oh, what a great response. It is. That's so funny. They should post it in like a big box, you know, like get like a refrigerator box. Yeah. Fill it with bubble wrap.
Starting point is 00:01:46 And be like, it's in there the refund has arrived and you've got to find it in there i double down on the pettiness compostable packing peanuts i just said packing peanuts and people probably imagined the amount of environmental impact polystyrene ones would have the i was thinking compostable yeah or the cornstarch ones that disappear into water. Or squirt you, but you've got to put the coin inside one of them. Yes. So he's got to go
Starting point is 00:02:09 individually through all of them. And wet them all. Yeah. I wouldn't care if that cost me $100. I'd still do that. I wouldn't stop
Starting point is 00:02:15 for $1,000 to do that. I'd be like, this is worth it for this 50 cent FU. Yeah. I was thinking put it inside like a fake bum or something
Starting point is 00:02:25 so they had to go into the bum to get the 50 cents out. Yeah, but they can only go into the bum. Yeah, one way. One way. Good morning, welcome to the show. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan with Hayley Sproul. And congratulations. She's back gracing us with her presents for a day today and on Friday.
Starting point is 00:02:51 But she managed to win. You managed to win. Yeah, I've been at Marching Nationals over the last week and my team took away Senior Champion Team. Oh, wow. So is that like the Golden Oldies division? No. Those are the masters. Is golden oldies division? No. Those are the masters. Is that the old ducks?
Starting point is 00:03:08 No. I am the baby of my team though. Are you? Yeah, I'm 31 and I'm the baby of my team. How old is everybody?
Starting point is 00:03:16 In my last team. How old are you when you play the masters? Oh, it's kind of, it's like as seniors as anything from 16 and above. Right. And then masters is, you know, a little bit older.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Slightly, I don't know. But anyway, I'm in the seniors, and I've, in senior grade, I've marched with like 16, 17-year-olds. I joined the senior grade when I was 16, but for some reason my team, which is a brand new team, just came out of one nationals,
Starting point is 00:03:40 we were a little bit older. More mature. Good on you for winning. Thank you. How many other teams were there? Well, you qualify on the Friday with all the teams, and then six teams make it through to the championship, and the other teams go into like a B division.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Oh, right. They play for the plate. It's called the plate. Yeah, the plate division. Okay. Yeah, so I'm feeling pretty good today. Slightly still a little bit dusty, I will say. We supped from a marching boot all night long.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Oh, I saw you doing that. And foot massages. If anybody's got a foot kink, is that still on your Instagram story? Yeah, they would have been phasing about that. They would have been absolutely, all these girls lying down and rubbing each other's feet. Dirty marching boot feet.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Yeah, after a day in the tight boot. Well, ZM's secret. That's about the end of my marching. Changing tack from foot fetishes to $50,000. Secret sound coming up. I'm going to get you a lot of foot pics online. I'm going to get you a lot of foot pics online. I'll give you a foot pick for $50,000.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Coming up at 7 and 8, it's all thanks to Star Streaming now on Disney+. All the clues that we've had. Another one over the weekend as well. I had a dream that I guessed it. That's how obsessed with this I am now. Yeah, you're not allowed to win. I know I'm not allowed to win. I just need to know.
Starting point is 00:05:03 All those clues, all the wrong guesses on Instagram. ZM Secrets on the Activator coming up at 7. Yeah, and the top six is coming up. Monopoly redoing the community chest and chance cards. Some of them a bit old-fashioned, like second place in a beauty contest winning you $10. Yeah. That's probably more going to win you...
Starting point is 00:05:19 Oh, it's way too low, that prize money. Oh, no, I was going to say, you probably don't win cash anymore. You probably win a photo shoot with a creepy photographer. You're like, oh, I've got a feeling I've been scammed here. I should not be here. I do not feel safe. So, yeah, the top six new community chest and chance cards that might be in the pack.
Starting point is 00:05:38 All right, top six is coming up. A man in Taiwan has changed his name to something very, very silly in order to get some free salmon. Flesh, fauna, Megan, the podcast, ZM. Well, religious people who lead religious congregations, churches, what, what? You're doing this story next. Hayley's doing this.
Starting point is 00:06:00 You can take over. You said, are you ready? And you said now. No, I didn't. I didn't. You're going to do a swapser. I said, you're teasing this story at the end of this break. Oh, and I said, are you ready to go next?
Starting point is 00:06:09 Do a swapser-oony. I think you said it in the start of that song. You said, are you ready to go next? I said, I can be ready to go whatever you want, baby. You know, while I was away on Thursday and Friday, did you guys just fall apart? Yeah. Yeah, basically.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Lots of arguing. You need to meet. I said, next. Okay, well, next on the show. Why don't you just take a pause? What? No, you're going to tease meet. Okay, well, next on the show. Why don't you just take a pause? What? No, you're going to tease now. Well, I'll tease at the start of the break.
Starting point is 00:06:29 I'll tease it now at the start of the break. You do it at the end. Well, why? Who said? I don't know, radio people. What does it say in the rule book? They don't know shit. The spreadsheet says.
Starting point is 00:06:39 I can tease it now and say next on the show. People who lead religious conversations, I'll give them another little sweet tease taste at the end of the break. But I'm going to hit them with a very exciting story after this. About salmon. You're about to hit some salmon notes. And I'm going to tell you that a new. Bryce, this sounds like a show that's just started its first week.
Starting point is 00:07:01 It's good. No, it sounds fresh. It sounds fresh. Unpredictable. Why stick to the script. Why stick to the, you know, the script? Why stick to the formula?
Starting point is 00:07:09 Anna's leaving the room. See ya. She's done. It's only Monday. Bye. I'll tell you about a religious man soon on the show.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Great tease. I'll speak first though. I'm going to tell you about a different man, a man in Taiwan who has changed his name. And he's changed his name to Salmon
Starting point is 00:07:30 Dream. Salmon Dream. Okay. So he changed his name to Salmon Dream because a sushi outlet had this idea of offering all you can eat meals as long as they had the name Guiyu,
Starting point is 00:07:49 the Chinese characters for salmon, in their name. So if they had those characters. So anywhere in the name. Anywhere in the name, they would get free all-you-can-eat sushi. So they were thinking that, you know, they would just get an influx of people who had those characters in the name and it would all go very well. But what actually happened was that over 200 people changed their name to incorporate
Starting point is 00:08:10 Salmon in it. 200 people were like, gotcha. Yeah, I see what you're doing here. Now, this guy, who his surname was Chang, he changed it to Salmon Dream and then he's realised, because that's
Starting point is 00:08:26 actually the third time he's changed his name, he can't change it back. It's like Facebook. I thought it was a limit. Yeah, so there's a limit. So the only way now that he can change his name back is if there's a member of his family. I don't really understand this that well, but
Starting point is 00:08:42 if there's another elder relative of his family that has the same name understand this that well, but if there's another elder relative of his family that has the same name, so the only way that he is now going to be able to get his name back to Chang from Salmon Dream is if he can convince his grandparent to change their name to Salmon Dream. And he's like, well, I can't be, oh God. Isn't that terrible?
Starting point is 00:09:02 All for a bit of sushi. Was it sushi whenever you wanted? Surely it's just going to be when it was salmon with sushi of the day. Yeah. Maybe. I don't think it was. It wasn't like for life. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:09:15 But that name is for life. Well, maybe this is something St. Pierre's should take on board. Yeah. For their sushi of the day, you change your last name to Teriyaki or. Oh, yeah. I wouldn't mind that, but of Katsu. And then every day when it's your day, you get a free pack. What's the most expensive sushi?
Starting point is 00:09:33 Pretty one with chicken or salmon. I was just saying, because you'd go for the more expensive one. You'd go for salmon, yeah, born salmon. You'd go for like the sashimi, right? Like the real fresh. Yeah. Beautifully cut. But that's not sushi of the day, though. No, no, no, no. I'm talking about a fine dining. Oh, yeah, right? Like the real fresh. Yeah. Beautifully cut. But that's not sushi of the day, though.
Starting point is 00:09:46 No, no, no, no. I'm talking about a fine dining. Oh, yeah, right. Okay. Japanese restaurant. What's that seaweed salad stuff called? Oh, I like that. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:09:52 I'd probably just change my name to that. Seaweed born, seaweed salad. Just walk past and grab one of any of you who've got the inkling. Oh, no. Well, now that, yeah, the people there at the sushi place are saying this is an absolute waste of time. Like, everyone has just taken this and ruined it. Very unnecessary.
Starting point is 00:10:12 And I hope that everyone can be a bit more rational. Right. Well, they were the unrational place that offered it to people with it in their name. Well. They're not going to be angry when people take advantage of that situation. I just want a big shout out to Mr. Salmon Dream out there. Live life.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Live in the dream. Live, laugh, love. The Salmon Dream. 13 past six. Well. Next on the show. Next on the show. I might do something.
Starting point is 00:10:35 You just do whatever you like. We'll see what happens next on the show. But I may talk about the head of a church with a very special healing Oh, there we go. Tentation. Aren't we back on track now? We're back, baby. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan The Podcast. Are you now ready to hear the story about the man
Starting point is 00:10:56 who's in charge of it? It's been pretty big and I think it's totally worth it. This is a man called Chris. He is the pastor of the Sevenfold Holy Spirit Ministries. He is a self-appointed man called Chris. He is the pastor of the Sevenfold Holy Spirit Ministries. He is a self-appointed man of God. Okay. He didn't go to...
Starting point is 00:11:11 Did God not appoint him? God University or... Right. God appointed him. Yeah, yeah. I guess you could say that. I guess that's what he'd say too. But he didn't go through sort of like a church's program.
Starting point is 00:11:25 There's the ignorance. How do we become a man of God? Church school. You go to church school. You become a religious person. And then you get your own church. I think that's how it works.
Starting point is 00:11:40 You shake his hand. You're like, hey, cheers for that. And he puts the cap on you and you graduate. He's graduation. They do a graduation, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Well, no, this guy did it himself. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:50 And he is also saving people's lives with the Holy Spirit. Oh, okay. Which you might be thinking sounds pretty much like everybody else. Even if they went to God College. That's what they always say. You let the Holy Spirit in. Well, he is so full of the Holy Spirit, he farts out the Holy Spirit,
Starting point is 00:12:12 and it's his farts that contain the Holy Spirit. Wow. And I'm not lying. I mean, he might be lying. He is lying. But I'm not making up the story. Here is a photo of Chris effectively teabagging somebody. Oh.
Starting point is 00:12:29 He's sitting on their face. Farting onto their mouth and nostrils. But he's still wearing his pants for those listening that can't see the photo. Just casually sitting on him with his microphone on stage there. Yep. And wow. Dozens of professionals wait to receive the sacred fart.
Starting point is 00:12:48 And it said to not only cure whatever ails them, but also helps their business flourish and become wealthy. Right. Lengthy queues, a routine as folks line up to obtain their blessings via the anointed anus.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Wow. Right. Wow. Okay. And what's his like? So he's saying that he. Was this in the Bible anywhere? Not that I'm familiar with. Background. Not that I'm reasoning.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Well, I was raised Catholic. I never remember farts even being mentioned because it probably would have like kept me hooked in a little bit longer. Yeah. As a kid. I've only read the children's Bible. You know, the one that has sort of pictures and stuff that help you out a bit when I was a kid. I've only read the children's Bible, you know, the one that has sort of pictures and stuff that help you out a bit when I was a kid.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Not raised religious, but I don't think there were farts in there either. He's saying he's doing it not by flesh but by faith and that when he sits on them, they don't feel any pain because the Holy Spirit is in charge. And then the Holy Spirit gets in their eyes. And over the next few days, their eyes will get red. And the Holy Spirit will almost seal them shut with a crust so that they can look inwards. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Right. Before getting some antibiotic, some bacterial eye drops and a hot final. I think that's conjunctivitis, not Jesus. Yeah. Conjunctive Jesus. Flesh, fauna, Megan Jesus. Yeah. Conjunctive Jesus. Fleshfauna Megan, the podcast, ZM.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Now, the Official Information Act has revealed the police policy on TikTok. Did someone do an information request? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:14:16 they have. So, I think this is stuff they've asked police and also Defence Force on their different policies. Okay. They'd be quite new policies, wouldn't they?
Starting point is 00:14:26 Because does that always blow your mind when you're scrolling through TikTok and people will just be at work at Pack and Save or whatever, in the middle of their shift, dancing and stuff. I'm just like, how do you not get in trouble? It's a great ad for Pack and Save, though. It's getting grand awareness out there. Well, I'd be doing it too because anything to kill the time, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:47 past the hours. I wish we had TikTok when I worked in retail and said we used to just fold t-shirts, muck them up, fold them again. Nothing else to do. So you liked folding them? Because I feel really bad because I can't do that retail fold when I put a t-shirt back so I just like... Oh, I'm very good. You've got to tuck your finger.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Tuck the finger. Because some of them, I see they use a board or something, eh? Oh. You don't need a board? No. I love those folding boards. Bareback folding. Wank, wank, wank.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Where you go? Well, police have revealed that they have asked staffers, apparently this policy came out mid last year, and they have asked staffers not to useers not to post TikTok videos on shift. So if they're in uniform? Yes. Without special permission, they're not to TikTok. I feel like that should go without saying.
Starting point is 00:15:38 You'd think so. Especially for something like the police. But how cool would it be if the lights are on, your partner's driving and you're just like filming? I would. Well, you're about to tase someone. Going 160. Hold on, I'm about to tase you,
Starting point is 00:15:52 but I've got to get that song in the background. Oh, no. Oh, no. You know, that TikTok. And then you tase them and it drops, and then it goes back and it does it again. It would be cool. Classic for the TikTok.
Starting point is 00:16:03 But imagine if, you know, crime was happening, general crime. Yeah. And the reason the cops weren't there is because they were on the talk. They were ticking and tocking. So their policy says that they strongly recommend. Okay, well that's confusing language. It is. They strongly recommend staff don't post TikToks of themselves in uniform
Starting point is 00:16:24 or share photos of themselves in uniform on social media. And apparently the Defence Force say don't post pictures of you, like, for example, on Tinder in your uniform. Oh, why not? That's absolutely burly. There's nothing hotter than a cop. What about a firefighter?
Starting point is 00:16:42 No, that'd be all dirty and smoky. I thought something like that, but a soot. And it's too, like, you can't see the body shape. Are you forgetting the calendar, the fireman's calendar? Oh, look, that's hot. But when they're in their actual garb, you can't really see them. That's like a kinder surprise. You know there's going to be a toy inside.
Starting point is 00:17:04 Granted, you don't know what it is going to be, but you know there's something in there. What if it's a rubbish toy? Or a toy I've already got. You get the fun of taking off the outside, don't you? I just think the cop uniforms are more, I don't know, they show you what you're going to get. Especially the shirts.
Starting point is 00:17:19 The Defence Force uniforms, like the Army's and Air Force uniforms are better again. So for the record, you would like to see firemen wear less when they turn up to your house. Yeah, come on. Calm down, you know. They can bring all the protective gear, but they can turn up in their undergarments.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Yeah, put one of those, you know, when you're doing some sanding, sanding your windows, put that mask on. That's all you need. Okay. Yeah. Just to the benefit of everybody that wants a fork. A nice pair of sort of loose, but, you on, that's all you need. Okay. Yeah. Just to the benefit of everybody that wants a nice pair of sort of loose, but, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:47 tapered jeans. Yeah, famously, it's great to have, you know, flammable denim clinging to you when you run into a house fire. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Are we happy, New Zealand? Would you say?
Starting point is 00:18:03 Yeah. I mean, I'm generally a pretty happy person. Yeah, I'm happy. We've got a lot to be happy for in New Zealand, for sure. Well, Forbes have just released their happiest countries in the world list. Are we number one? Oh, no. No, because I feel like it's depending.
Starting point is 00:18:24 You know, no. No, because I feel like it's depending. You know, with happiness lists, it's either always like Central or South American countries or the Scandinavian countries. Yeah, because they've got all that like equality, like baseline income and no one can be that rich and no one can be that poor. Progressive tax rates. Four-day work weeks and that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:44 And then in Central America they don't have much. Cogain. They're not that born. Coffee beans, cocaine, cocaine.
Starting point is 00:18:52 No, but like Central American countries always seem to be the happiest. Like Costa Rica or countries like that. Ravaged though in the last year.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Yeah, absolutely. Pretty tough for that part of the year. So how they do this is... Sorry. How they do this... I sound like this...
Starting point is 00:19:12 I'm joining a metal band apparently. How they do it is they, typically they just interview people from all around the world to get a general sort of coverage of representation of happiness. Right. And of course because they couldn't do this face to face, they
Starting point is 00:19:29 did a mixture of surveys and FaceTime interviews and stuff. Yeah. They do it every year and this year Finland takes it again. Yeah. I've never been to Finland. I've never been to Finland either. It's on the list. But this is like you were saying before.
Starting point is 00:19:45 So the top eight. Finland, Iceland, Denmark, Switzerland, Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Norway. Oh, wow. Okay. So they are doing something right over in that part. Heavy IKEA. Heavy IKEA. Heavy IKEA.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Life is happier with cheap furniture. So that's your top eight. Coming in at number nine. Us. Number nine. That's not bad after that. Those countries are famously happy. Yeah, they are.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Yeah. And then we're coming in. This is based on the last year that we've had. So I think we have reason to be that high up. Yeah. Considering our COVID response and our freedom that we've had. So I think we have reason to be that high up. Yeah. Considering our COVID response and our freedom that we've had comparatively. But what was the country up there that was like, we'll see about this herd immunity thing?
Starting point is 00:20:34 Was that Sweden? Yeah, Sweden. And they got proven quite wrong, didn't they? Yeah, well, they're still happy though. Yeah. Is there vitamin D windows that make them happy? You know the vitamin D windows? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:46 They sit down in front of a fake window in the middle of winter, and the light that comes out of it makes their body produce vitamin D because they have such a lack of natural light over winter. And they have little saunas, don't they, in their bathrooms? Yeah, saunas and vitamin D windows. And polar plungers. And reindeer meat. Wim Hof. Reindeer meat. Yeah, I love't know. And cola plunges. And reindeer meat. Wim Hof.
Starting point is 00:21:05 Reindeer meat. Yeah, I love a reindeer. I love eating a reindeer. Who was number 10 on the list? Austria. Oh. So no Central or South American countries at all. No, so after that, I've got the top 20.
Starting point is 00:21:18 After that goes Israel at 11, 12 Australia, and then Ireland, United States in 14, which honestly, you guys, you think you're happy, but you're just in an absolute state. You think you're happy. 15, Canada. Then Czech Republic, Belgium, United Kingdom, Taiwan, and then France. Wow.
Starting point is 00:21:37 And we beat Australia. We did beat Australia. That's the main takeaway from that. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. ZM. Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. This is the top six.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Hello there. Today's top six. Hasbro is updating Monopoly's community chess cards. No longer will you win second prize in a beauty contest.

Starting point is 00:22:24 Okay. Number six on the list of the top six new Monopoly cards. You got locked out of your social media account, meaning you can't post your sponsored content, meaning you're without income, so next time you pass go, you can't collect $200. Brilliant. Easy done.

Number five on the list of the top six new monopoly chance cards. The bank pays dividends of $6. Okay. But then stings you with the monthly $5 banking fee. So collect $1.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Yeah. Classic banks. Stupid bank with your $5 fee. How are they going to make their money? They've got to make their money? You know, they're going to make their money. And your $5 at a time, they're making enough money off credit cards,

Starting point is 00:23:45 Yes. Would you do it if the bank accidentally transferred? No because they're getting it back. Did they get all

And number one on the list of the top six new Monopoly chance cards.

Starting point is 00:26:58 Oh, yeah, every day is happy if you're not pushing daisies, that's for sure. That's very true. You can come back. Now, Jodie, have you seen the latest clue that was posted on Instagram, ZM Secret Sound? I have,
Starting point is 00:27:12 but I also watched that video a couple of times before I started work. And I think that it's your lovely work colleague releasing the blind in the studio. Releasing the blind in the studio? Releasing the blind in the studio? Releasing it as in pulling it down?
Starting point is 00:27:30 Yes. So when you kind of click it and then it does that. Yeah. Yeah, we've got a couple of those in our house. You need to pull it to the side to get that click. And the right angle. And then this goes. Very specific, yep.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Okay. Yeah, it's that noise, you know? Vaughn's just pulling up the blind Well this is a different kind of blind It's a different kind of blind, you're talking more of a the blind that you pull over and you have to pull it down to lock it You know like Venetians Oh, gotcha
Starting point is 00:27:59 Three different strings Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha It's that one he pulls when ours is talking and she walks over and he walks over to pull it to kind of say, you know, see you later, good night. Yeah, it's rough. Okay, so that's the original secret sound.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Now, if we listen to the sound that was at the end of the TikTok video. Could be it landing on the sill. Yeah. And then let's play. Should we play the sound, the clue that was released on Instagram, which was just called part three? Okay, wow. Nice.
Starting point is 00:28:43 I just like, yeah, make it hard. Why not? Yeah, you've done really well, wow. Nice. I just like, yeah, make it hard. Why not? Yeah, you've done really well, actually. Because I worked in a workshop and I thought air compressor, electric snips, all sorts. Okay, does that work in with any of the other clothes? Yeah, that's my question. How does this fit? A blind being released. Oh, well, there's clothes? Yeah, that's my question. How does this fit? Are blind being released?
Starting point is 00:29:07 Oh, well, there's heaps of things everyone's pulled on through all your clips, so even the movies. Yeah. You're really good. It's actually quite confusing. Oh, you're telling me. This is driving me nuts. That's almost the point of the clues.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I've been dreaming about it, Jodie. It's enough to make you want to drink, to be honest. Wow. Honestly, living makes me want to drink a bit. All right. Jodie, let's hear your secret sound guess. Well, she just said. Oh, my gosh.

Starting point is 00:30:40 Okay. Oh my god. Oh my god oh my god i'm not gonna comment um one more time and again it's not helping me that That sounds like something shutting. I've got no idea.

Starting point is 00:31:34 Flesh, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast, ZM. Well, it was a great day on Tuesday? Well, no, in Christchurch. Yesterday, sorry. That's for fans of the All Blacks and the Wiggles. And I know you're out there. Huge crossover. If those were two circles.
Starting point is 00:31:53 If that was a Venn diagram, it would predominantly be like an eclipse moon. So the Wiggles, who are obviously in New Zealand after some controversy. Well, they were getting death threats in MIQ. Yeah, which is really embarrassing, guys. It's the Wiggles, who are obviously in New Zealand after some controversy. Well, they were getting death threats in MIQ. Yeah, which is really embarrassing, guys. It's the Wiggles. Calm down.
Starting point is 00:32:11 So they've been in New Zealand. They're touring around, sell out shows everywhere. And then they sent out a little teaser on their social media saying, surprise, we've got a mystery special guest joining us when we visit Christchurch on Sunday. Can you guess who they are? Hint, they're not bad at rugby or the bagpipes. Now, I don't know if you know this, but I know this as a girl who is,
Starting point is 00:32:35 you know, ties to the Highland world with my marching, that it's Richie McCaw. Richie McCaw plays. I knew that he was into his gliding. Yeah, yeah. Helicopters. He's a helicopter pilot. He's a glider pilot.
Starting point is 00:32:51 But I had no idea that he could play the bagpipes. Yeah. So at the show in Christchurch yesterday, Richie McCaw came out playing this. Sorry, the thing skipped out. So here's what happened. I was on the TVNZ website and as I
Starting point is 00:33:08 went to click play, the little thing that pops up from the bottom with the planet disappeared. Okay. That'd be classic. Classic Scotland the Brave. That is Richie McCaw. Oh, okay, that's pretty good. That's pretty cool, right? I mean, I hate, absolutely loathe bagpipes. Oh my god, that's pretty good. That's pretty cool, right? I mean, I hate absolutely loathed bagpipes.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Oh, my God, you are a cold soul. You're a monster. They make my soul shiver. I love them. So that is Richie playing the bagpipes on the stage with the Wiggles, and now he is wearing a Wiggle Skivvy. A black Wiggle Skivvy. A black wiggle skivvy. We're going to be honest.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Like an all black. He's got an all black wiggle skivvy on. So is he the black wiggle now? He's the black wiggle. And he gave the blue wiggle, which is one of the original guys, Anthony, he was wearing an all black shirt. And then Richie was on stage with them. But is this dad points?
Starting point is 00:34:04 Totally, because his daughter was in dad points? Oh, totally. Because his daughter was in the crowd. Oh, okay. Yeah. Your dad would be pretty, like of all the things your dad's done, like she wouldn't even probably understand what the oblique's. No. Like, but you should know what a wiggle is.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Yeah. So Gemma Flynn, Richie's wife. Oh, yeah. Gemma Flynn, Gemma McCaw. She shared a photo of their daughter meeting the yellow wiggle that everyone loves. What's her name? Emma.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Yeah. Bourne's got a photo with Emma too. She is. I accosted her at the quest to Eden. She was in the van getting ready to leave, and I leant in and I was like, good morning. Ooh. I just wanted to say my kids love you guys.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Oh, my gosh. Would you mind if I got a photo oh dear they were very nice though they got out and then you proceeded to ask all the wiggles
Starting point is 00:34:50 for their photos no the only one I didn't get was the blue wiggle if you go on look there's there's Richie McCord doing the wiggles point
Starting point is 00:34:57 in his black skivvy with Emma now I want to say the blue jeans he's got a big buckle on his in the black skivvy he is Mac I want to say the blue jeans, he's got a big buckle in the black skivvy. He is Mac's dad.
Starting point is 00:35:06 He is, yeah. There is nothing sexy about this look, but good on you, pops. But Richard McCoy, if he hadn't been in all black, would have been dad, would have been like jeans pulled up, white new balances. Yes. Like he's been dad. If it wasn't for the all blacks, he would have been dad material from like 22. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:35:26 He would have been tucked into the jeans. Just a nice, and he would have been. He is. Well, he's totally cool dad of the year at the moment. Cool dad. Black Skivvy is tucked into his jeans. Legendary All Black. But if it wasn't for the All Blacks,
Starting point is 00:35:38 he would have been this guy a long time ago. All right. 17 minutes past seven. Next on the show, did a craft course. By the way, this is going to be the first of many for me, I think. Cross stitch, you should try. I did cross stitch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:52 He's done it. I've done a bit of cross stitch. It's really soothing. Oh, hmm. It's too small. I'd prefer a long stitch if we're talking stitches. It's the easier cross stitch. But I'll tell you next about some craft.
Starting point is 00:36:03 All right. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. They did crafting at the weekend. Fully ready to ease into that dad weekend activity outside of mowing the lawns. I spent all yesterday mowing my lawns, doing the edging around the concrete, and that was hot stuff as well. Aaron loves a bit of edging. Oh, how good.
Starting point is 00:36:21 So, I will. And the lawns. So, that's a side note, is that I bought an edging attachment for my weed eater. Yeah. But I knew it wasn't going to fit. I crafted it to fit. Wow. It might not
Starting point is 00:36:37 last forever, but it only cost me like 50 bucks versus buying a whole new thing. So, that was another great weekend accomplishment. I made my own edging equipment. What a thrilling life you lead. I know. Some people... I just went away and won a national championship
Starting point is 00:36:52 and you crafted a weed whacker. Fletch, what did you do? Went to the beach. Went to the beach. Yeah. Nice. Went to the beach, got drunk. You two, eh?
Starting point is 00:37:02 Good. All grown up. Yeah. But on Saturday, it was a six o'clock alarm. Okay. Because we needed to get to a full day of crafting, Sade and I made knives. How did you get into this?
Starting point is 00:37:16 Was this a present? Yeah. Yeah. Right. Well, yeah, we booked it because when she got me a pocket knife for our anniversary, someone said, oh, you should make a knife. So we looked into it. And I was like, yeah, I'm on board.
Starting point is 00:37:28 And you've got no choice. You're coming. Sade was a little bit apprehensive. You're going to have a lot of sharp utensils around the house. Yeah, you are. And so did you make it from scratch? So from like metal, yeah, from C1075. Is that a metal?
Starting point is 00:37:42 I remember the metal. Oh, right. And because I saw the photos you put up, and you put it in a hot fire, and it was like glowing white. Red. And then put it in oil, and it went pshh. That wasn't water. That was oil.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Oh. And you can use canola oil, but we didn't use canola oil. What oil do you use? Some synthetic oil. I can't remember. I wish I could remember all that. I was impressed that I remember C1075. And do you design the shape of the knife?
Starting point is 00:38:08 Yeah. Yeah, you can draw it completely by yourself before you go. You get there and there's some templates. Yeah, I was going to say, because wouldn't you have your chef's knife, your bread knife, your butter knife? Well, that's what Sade's friend was like. Can you make me a cheese knife? I'm like, we're not going to an all-day course to make a cheese knife.
Starting point is 00:38:25 No. You should have made that knife, that smeg knife that you didn't get the whole set for. Completed the set. And then used that, yeah. But so I chose a Scandinavian hunting knife. Oh, as you do. Because you know me, I'm always hunting up for the Scandinavian countries. I'm looking to absolutely knife a reindeer.
Starting point is 00:38:44 Yeah, yeah. I'm always sneaking up behind reindeers being like, if I only had a knife, your day would have been over, Blitzen. You lazy bastard. What did Blitzen do to you? Well, it's always at the back. Anyone who wants to do his, turn up the front. I'd go for Donner.
Starting point is 00:38:58 He's the one that dents the roof when he pushes off. I've got a light tin roof and a hoofsail through it because bloody Blitzen lands too heavy. And they're not cheap to replace to tell you what no real pain in the ass to get the broken one out so yeah and I made a Scandinavian knife and I took a
Starting point is 00:39:11 totra post that was on my grandad's farm they got the land when it was all like bush and everything yeah or his grandfather did and
Starting point is 00:39:21 they fell they felled the trees and they made it into the posts so I got one of those posts it was a bit of Smith family history and they felled the trees and they made it into the posts. So I got one of those posts and it was a bit of a Smith family history and they came from Scandinavia, thus the Scandinavian hunting knife. But yeah, spent all day making a knife. It was so much fun. And Sade
Starting point is 00:39:34 loved it too, even though she was a little apprehensive. What's the process? You get a slab of metal. Yep, and you put your shape on it and then you spend ages on this grinder just like wearing it down into like roughly
Starting point is 00:39:47 the shape yeah get all the shape that you want and then you put it in that hot hot hot thing the furnace
Starting point is 00:39:55 yeah oven dip it and then you put a bevel on it which is like you know the bit that comes in on a knife yeah
Starting point is 00:40:01 that was really hard how long did all this take all day we were there from 8 in the morning to like 5.30, 6.30. Briscoe's was probably having a good time. Go to Stephen's. Go to Stephen's. It takes like 10 minutes, Vaughan.
Starting point is 00:40:14 ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. I don't know about you guys, but I am constantly hungry. Yes, also. It didn't touch the sides. I'm starving. Smoothies never touch the sides Smoothies are annoying in the fact that It's getting everything in there but you're still hungry
Starting point is 00:40:30 At the end of it I put so much in it Now a clinical dietitian Has chimed in as to when to stop eating Before bed because I'm always hungry Right up until the moment I go to sleep I know and then you're like well is it Worse to go to bed hungry
Starting point is 00:40:45 or is it better to go full? Do you sometimes just go to bed to stop yourself eating? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the only way I'm not going to eat that. God damn it, I'm going to have to go to bed. I'm going to eat that bar of chocolate if I don't go to bed right now. Yeah, because it's very satisfying to have that little late night snack, like that little post dinner.
Starting point is 00:41:03 You put a lot of effort in, then you're sort of in the pantry like, oh, I'm a bit of cheese. Bit of cheese. But then you get cheese dreams. You don't want too much cheese before bed. Mine is like chocolate chips, you know, like baking chocolate bits. Because it doesn't feel like, well, you're like, I don't have a block of chocolate in the house. And then you're like, I'll just have a little handful of these.
Starting point is 00:41:23 And then you're pouring a little bowl of baking chocolate chips. This is why in my pantry I don't have, I can't have anything that's snacky like that. Like if I'm going to get snacks, I'm getting it that day. I'm going to go out to get it. You've got a very barren pantry. Yeah. I've got a barren pantry.
Starting point is 00:41:39 It's a utilitarian sort of like Soviet Russia communist pantry. I mean I can make icing if I really wanted to, like after-school styles when you're at school and you make chocolate icing. Cocoa, butter and icing sugar. But it's too much effort, so I never do. It's too much.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Well, apparently eating late can feel greatly satisfying but lead to terrible side effects like possible digestive issues, nightmares or even long-term weight gain because our bodies actually store calories as fat when we sleep rather than burning them as energy. Have you got a cut-off time that we shouldn't eat after? So this dietician is saying 7 o'clock. Maybe 7.30.
Starting point is 00:42:18 But if you go to bed at what time? Between 9 and 10. So that's like two to three hours before you go to bed. So if you're not getting home from work until like 6 and then dinner's 7.38 Well ideally you can kind of move it. So we'll figure this out for us 4amers at the moment.
Starting point is 00:42:35 You should allow enough time for a 12 to 13 hour overnight fast. So a 12 to 13 hour window of not eating. So if you, do you know what I mean? So if you were to go to bed at,
Starting point is 00:42:49 well this is bad news for us. If you were to go to bed, if you were to eat your dinner at 7, 7.30 and your breakfast, you're up, you're an early riser, 7, 7.30.
Starting point is 00:42:58 Then you eat. That's 12 hours. So for the likes of us getting up at four, Going to bed at nine. So I'm having breakfast like quarter past five. I need to stop eating by 5.15. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:12 But that's no problem. Sometimes I'll have dinner at 5.36. That's when I have dinner. That's a very specific time to have dinner. Well, it's just when I do. 5.36 every night. Around that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Sometimes five even. I'm on rest time hours.36 every night. You need it. Around that. Yeah, sometimes five even. I'm on rest time hours. I'm basically in a rest time but not. God damn it, I want to live in a rest time. I bet it's like quiet. Well, someone else cooks for you. You can probably like hear the answers for the chase through the wall. So there's other issues for this because usually if you're late night eating,
Starting point is 00:43:40 you'll be a little bit tired. And when you're tired, you crave like salty or sweetie, fatty foods. You're not craving a tofu salad. No. 9pm. So we can't blame the fact that we're eating late entirely for the fact that we're gaining weight. I'll just eat this
Starting point is 00:43:57 big chocolate cake at 5 then. That'll fix it. That seems to be, you found the loophole. I think that's a loophole, yeah. As long as you're having chocolate cake 12 hours before breakfast, it's fine. Am I a bad person? But right now it's time for Am I a Bad Person? Someone has a conundrum.
Starting point is 00:44:15 They do. They've anonymously emailed us said conundrum. And it's actually a conundrum I've been in a number of times. It's about being a bridesmaid. Okay. Have either of you two been a being a bridesmaid. Okay. Have either of you two been a groomsman before? No. Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:29 What? I ever born. I was like, awkward, because I know that you got married in the time that you've been working together and were you not invited. No, he didn't invite me. So rude. Wow. Yeah. This whole thing on here is an act.
Starting point is 00:44:41 We're work friends. I'm so sorry that I've brought that up on here. Ripped that scab off. Well, I've been a bridesmaid. One, two, three, four. You're like Katherine Heigl in 27 dresses and in real life because you're a bitch. No, she's come out lately and said she's not a bitch. Oh, well then, take that back.
Starting point is 00:45:03 I'm so Sorry, Catherine. If anyone who's been a bridesmaid or a groomsman before, I'll say bridesmaid more so, it's expensive. And so this person that's emailed in with this conundrum is facing that very fact. They say, hi guys. Hi. Hi. My friend has asked me to be a bridesmaid and
Starting point is 00:45:21 even though we are super close and I'm honoured to be asked, I honestly don't think I can afford to do it. She's given us an idea of the budget because there's four of us, we're paying for our own dresses, hair and makeup. She's priced it at around $600 and that isn't
Starting point is 00:45:38 including the hen's do. They can be very pricey, we'll come to that later. We live in different cities so I'm thinking we have to factor in travel and accommodation along with a gift too. No, you don't have to do that. The other girls, she's asked, are all in a much better financial situation,
Starting point is 00:45:51 so I'd feel pretty uncomfortable asking her to scale things back just for me. So, am I a bad person if I say no to being a bridesmaid just because of money? Oh, what a conundrum. Because you don't, you're never going to say to her, look, hey, I just can't afford it. Why not though? I mean, you should be able to say that,
Starting point is 00:46:14 but maybe there's some shame in that. Maybe. I mean, I've had lots of different experiences of being a bridesmaid. I've had buy your own dress. I've had we'll buy the dress. It will provide everything. I've had, you own dress. I've had we'll buy the dress. It will provide everything. I've had, you know, wear something
Starting point is 00:46:27 you already own before. And it can be expensive. So she's saying $600, but that's hair, makeup and dress. You're not factoring in travel, wine, travel, accommodation. I assume you're going more wine.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Because you're going to provide wine. They'll be like, the wine. Because they're going to provide wine. They'll be like, wine will be provided. It's like, you got one bottle for the four of us, babe. That's not going far. That's not provided. I've got my own stash in the fridge. But then there's everything. Fake tan.
Starting point is 00:46:53 You get your nails done. Because everyone else is doing it. You can't be standing there with your pale blue skin like mine is usually. Or the other girl's got a tan and didn't tell you. You're a shining beacon of light in all the photos. You're got a tan and didn't tell you. You're a shining beacon of light in all the photos. People are seeing right through you like you're a jellyfish. That's expensive. So I feel for this
Starting point is 00:47:11 girl. I will say to the brides that I have mated before it was an honour. That's not what she said before. Absolute financial freedom. Screw those women. That cost me a fortune. But that's fair enough.
Starting point is 00:47:27 If she's on a budget, meaning that bridesmaids have to pay for themselves, she's got to understand it's expensive, right? Yeah, I don't think they're a bad person. I don't think she's a bad person. And better than to say now, I can't afford it, than to say, yes, I'll do it, and get halfway through and then be like,
Starting point is 00:47:42 I actually can't afford to do any of the remaining stuff. And I think if you were being asked to be a bridesmaid, it means that you and get halfway through and then be like, I actually can't afford to do any of this. The remaining stuff. And I think if you were being asked to be a bridesmaid, it means that you and your friend are close. Like you don't just ask willy nilly mates to be a bridesmaid. So I think if you are close enough to be asked this
Starting point is 00:47:57 honour, you should be close enough to say so and so, I just can't it's really not the time for me to afford any of this. I'm happy to come to the day and just watch and I understand. But then she is a close friend. She, you know, she should be there. She should be there for her friend. By her side.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Well, she could be there. She could maybe like emcee or something. But does that make her a bad person for turning down, you know, such an honour for a close friend? And there will be people that have been hurt by bridesmaids and friends that have done this. I bet you. Yeah, totally. You just can't ask someone to pay for something because of how expensive it's going to be
Starting point is 00:48:33 and then be upset when they're like, well, actually, I can't afford it either. All right, well, what do you think? 0800 DALESATM. Give us a text 9696. Maybe you've been in this position before. Like, what should she do? Should she just tell her that she can't afford it? Maybe she'll offer to buy the dress and say, hey, look, I really want you there.
Starting point is 00:48:49 I don't mind paying for your dress. Yeah. Just don't tell those other women. But then what if the other girls find out and they're like, well, I pay for all of my dress. Well, yeah, just keep that on the down low. Yeah, but a hen's do is going to get sloppy. Am I a bad person? All right, so quick update.
Starting point is 00:49:05 There is a recap. There is a wedding coming up. Yes, Anonymous has emailed us with a conundrum. Been asked to be a bridesmaid. The costs are to be covered by herself instead of the bride paying. And she just can't afford it. So she's asking us, am I a bad person for saying no because of the money? Somebody messaged in saying this sounds like a ploy.
Starting point is 00:49:24 She wants to have a go at Secret Sound and skip the queue. She's not allowed to. She's not allowed to. Not quite how it works. That probably would solve the bridesmaid problems. So we want to know, is she a bad person? Yeah. I can't afford this, so I might have to opt out. The general consensus
Starting point is 00:49:39 in our room is no. I'd say the general consensus overall thus far is an overwhelming no. But certainly tell her no, but fish for her to buy a free dress or something. Yeah, 100%. Get that out there. I'd love to, but I just can't afford it. Anonymous, is she a bad person?
Starting point is 00:49:55 No, definitely not. Like, it's really an awkward situation. Like, I have been in it. But, yeah, like, it was hard. And she, her and I unfortunately don't really speak anymore. She is definitely not a bad person. Oh, ways to you. So she cut you because you said no to her.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Yeah, so we kind of stopped talking. I did get in touch with her last year during lockdown and that sort of thing. And she was okay, but we've literally not seen each other since the wedding. Never been the same again. She was hurting from it. Did you go to the wedding as a guest? No, I didn't. No.
Starting point is 00:50:35 I felt bad. Like, I felt really like, oh, if I can't be a bystander, I can't really go to the wedding. I did actually have something else on that weekend that was family sort of orientated. How close were you guys, really? Yeah, well, that was the thing. Like, we knew each other in primary school and things like that, but I think she just, yeah, I don't know, she asked. I was quite surprised when she asked. Oh, right. Okay. Wow.
Starting point is 00:51:00 Yeah. But then I was literally living, like living from paycheck to paycheck. I could not afford it. And so I just had to say, well, I'm so sorry. But no, I just can't do it. Fair enough. Amazing. Thank you for sharing, Anonymous. Rachel, is she a bad person? No, I actually think it's a really valid issue.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I reckon she's got two options. She can either go get a loan from the bank to cover this cost. No, she can't force herself into crippling debt for this. No, but, I mean, you can go some places where you're only paying off, like, $5 or $10 a week. Like after pay or something? Yeah. Yeah, like if it's really important to her and she doesn't want to let her friend down, I reckon, you know, suck it up.
Starting point is 00:51:43 Find some way of sorting it out that won't put you, you know, suck it up. Find some way of sorting it out that won't put you, you know, out of your savings for a couple of weeks. Okay, so that's option one, suck it up. What's option two? The other option would be, I reckon she worded that letter to you absolutely brilliantly.
Starting point is 00:51:59 I think she should just send that letter to her friend and say, look, I'm sorry, I can't afford it. Look, I'm sorry, I've ridden into a radio station. I reckon option two, just absolutely fish for her to pay for the dress and for the day. And if she wants you there that badly, she'll make it happen. Or she wrote to us because she knows her friend listens and this is taking care of it. We're playing middleman. Rachel, thanks for your call.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Would anyone have said she's a bad person? It's very little. It's like, what, 5%? Somebody said that they had a friend that did this, said I can't afford to be part of your wedding, yet kept going out for dinners, kept partying, kept living this lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Priorities. Yeah, they hit them up and said I thought you couldn't afford to do it and she said well I can't afford to live like this because I'm not going to be at your wedding. Obviously not great. Obviously not great friends anymore. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast.
Starting point is 00:52:48 ZM. ZM's $50,000 secret sound. Tell them what the secret sound is. But first, our secret sound. Soundkeeper Owls is in. She's the only one that knows what the sound is. My lips are shut. Julie and Denison,
Starting point is 00:53:03 do you want to hear the secret sound? Do you want to think? See if you can tell us what this is. My lips are shut. Julie and Dennis, do you want to hear the secret sound? Do you want to think? See if you can tell us what this is. That's it. That's all we get. $50,000. Got any idea?
Starting point is 00:53:18 Can you play it again? Don't get it right. Please don't. Please don't get it right. Is that like metal hitting something? Yeah, see, I've always thought that it had a metallic-y sort of a sound. Is it someone dropping a baby? A metal baby.
Starting point is 00:53:33 A metal baby. A metal baby, baby. There's a lot of metal in babies, technically. So there were other sound clues that came out, and we've put them together to make an extended sound. Yeah, it sounds like dropping a baby. A metal baby, yeah. Like a pile of cutlery.
Starting point is 00:53:48 Well, I cannot confirm nor deny. Imagine if that was the secret sound. Accidentally dropping a baby into a pile of cutlery. I mean, the guess is up for grabs. No one's guessed it. No one's guessed it yet. No, you're right. All right, we welcome Leanne in.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Good morning. Morning. All right, so so What is your What do you think that is for $50,000? That is the worst sound quality of $50,000? It can't
Starting point is 00:54:18 be easy to you. No. You're not going to go away with the money. Alright, yes, what's your guess? I think it's someone like shooting a basketball at the hoop, like hitting the
Starting point is 00:54:28 backboard and then hitting like, you know, the hoop. My brain went there as well when I heard that extended... And it matches quite a few of the
Starting point is 00:54:37 clues, so... Could it be? Do you want 50 grand? Do you? That's a big question. Really think about it, Lianna. Lianna, is the 50 grand yours? Nah, mate, it's not.
Starting point is 00:54:57 That's not the secret sound. Okay, all right. Well, you get $100 for a wrong guess, Lianna. Cool. All right. It is cool. Cool, mate. It's not quite as cool as $50 for a wrong guess, Leannan. Cool. All right. It is cool. Cool, mate. It's not quite as cool as $50,000.
Starting point is 00:55:08 No, it's not. Yeah, imagine if you won. That would have been so cool. That would have been really cool for you to be here for that. Well, another shot coming up at 11. Fleshforn and Megan, the podcast, ZM. It opens on Thursday. Godzilla vs. Kong.
Starting point is 00:55:23 And in that movie, and also in this studio, Julian Dennison, hello. I am here. You are here. Good morning, sir. Level one, baby. When did you film this movie? About two years ago. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:55:35 Yeah, about two years ago, end of 2019. Whereabouts? Hawaii and the Gold Coast. Oh. So pre-COVID didn't exist? Pre-COVID, COVID wasn't a thing. Wow. Yeah,VID didn't exist Pre-COVID COVID wasn't a thing Wow Yeah She didn't exist
Starting point is 00:55:47 What's your schedule been like Between the end of that Because obviously 2020 was the start of it COVID And to now Have you been in and out of the country Or have you been mostly No

Starting point is 00:56:10 I've been enjoying just spending time with family and that. So it's been really good and I don't want to get anyone sick. Yeah, because it's fair to say you've had a busy few years. Yeah, busy few years. It's been pretty hectic. So, no, it's been fun just spending time with friends and family. Yeah, it's been good. Is this pathway something that you wanted to be
Starting point is 00:56:31 when you were super, super young before Wilder People? I think any child would love doing this. I think time off school and it's just a fun time. Don't get me wrong, it was amazing. But, yeah, I love it. I love it. I guess right now is like a perfect time, I guess, to kind of settle down. I just moved out of home.
Starting point is 00:56:52 Just moved out of home. I just moved to Auckland actually and with a few bros into a flat. Oh God. Did you have to go to Briscoe's and buy lots of cutlery and stuff? No, I didn't. I didn't. My mum actually bought me a whole lot of cutlery and towels. So shout out to mum. My mum told me, go to the of cupboards. Oh, yeah. So shout out to mum. My mum did it.
Starting point is 00:57:05 My mum told me, go to the Salvation Army. They had to get all the secondhand knives and boards. Yeah, and it's all mismatched. You get a couple of bone-handled knives from a deceased estate and then a couple of plastics. Chic. Yeah, exactly. What's this flat like then?
Starting point is 00:57:18 Because, God, I remember when I was your age, our flats were nasty, especially if it was all dudes. It's good. It's like we have a schedule and everything. Oh, like a cleaning roster. Yeah, we have like a cleaning roster. Any girls in the flat? Yes. So actually I guess like the
Starting point is 00:57:33 head honchos of the flat is actually like a young couple. So they keep you in line? They kind of keep us in line. Keep us all accountable. A mother and a papa. But what happens if you need to go film a movie? Who does your weeks of the chores? Oh, man, I guess they just probably double the rent or something. Sounds fun.
Starting point is 00:57:50 So let's talk about Godzilla vs Kong. A lot of your scenes are with Millie Bobby Brown, who people will know from Stranger Things. What was that like? Were you excited to meet her? Yeah, I actually, we did like a chemistry read like halfway through 2019, I think. Like it's a chemistry read.
Starting point is 00:58:07 It means like how do you like... Vibe together. Yeah, vibe together with the actor. So met her before we started shooting. That was in Atlanta. And then I hadn't actually watched Stranger Things yet. Right. So I went back and watched it.
Starting point is 00:58:22 And yeah, it's a fun show. It's a weird show But it's cool Yeah it's pretty crazy But no I was excited to work with her Also Brian Tyree Henry Is an amazing actor He plays Bernie in the film
Starting point is 00:58:34 I think he plays Paperboy in Atlanta Yeah By Donald Glover Yeah It's a good show Yeah it's a good show Awesome Yeah I enjoyed working with him
Starting point is 00:58:41 Do you in the film Do you do an American accent? No I don't do an American accent They thought the Kiwi accent was exotic. Exotic? It is. Yeah, yeah. It was like in the Star Wars universe when Tim Urimorison played Jango Fett.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Yeah. I'm like, oh, God, listen to this accent. It sounds so hot. It sounds so other planet. Yeah, no, it was, yeah. Adam Wingard, the director, was like, oh, you're so exotic. Exotic. Thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:59:05 I feel like the Kiwi accent is most unexotic. Yeah, yeah, Adam Wingard, the director, was like, oh, you're so exotic. Exotic? Thanks, man. I feel like the Kiwi accent is most unexotic. Yeah, yeah. Lazy. Because Millie Bobby Brown does an American accent in the film, right? Mm. I find that hard. If a couch could talk, it would be a New Zealand accent. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:19 Hi. I'm on a movo. Oh, no. Watch out for the big monkey. Yeah. If I could get anyone from the Hawke's Bay, that would have been pretty cool. Or Invercargill, where it would just sound like they were trying to do an American accent,
Starting point is 00:59:35 but doing it really badly. With the wrong ears. Oh, my God. Look over there. Yeah. Well, lots of surprises. We're not going to give anything away. I watched it last night.

It's out on Thursday. Thank you so much for coming in. Julian Dennison. It's been amazing. All right. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan.
Starting point is 00:59:51 The podcast. A winner in our midst this morning, Fletch. A national champion. Yeah, but we're not national champions of anything. We're not national champions of anything. I am. You're a national champion at marching. As of Saturday, yes.
Starting point is 01:00:03 My team, my marching team, Royal Command, we won Marching New Zealand Champions Senior Team. So your mum was on tour with you? Yeah. So every marching team has a chaperone. And whether you're in like intros or under 12s or under 16s, seniors, masters, you always have a chaperone. And they're there to like look after the uniforms
Starting point is 01:00:24 and look after wellbeing and cook for the girls. I just couldn't imagine my mum doing that. My mum stopped coming to my sports when I scored a try on the sideline in midget rugby. Right. Well, marching's in my family. So my mum's, you know, she's right in there. And then whenever I won, like say we won cricket,
Starting point is 01:00:41 mum or mostly dad would say, was the other team blind or something? Something like that. Well, we did do that. To be honest, have you seen the blind cricket team? Very good. They hit the balls from the rattle in the ball. They're already better cricketers than I am.
Starting point is 01:00:54 I know. It's unbelievable. But yeah, mum was there. And then she joined after the big win. She joined the motel party. Marching girls, we know how to party. We know how to party. And so we got a marching boot
Starting point is 01:01:05 that had been worn since that morning. And did a shilly, a bootie. It was lined. It was lined because it's a leather boot. It'll just soak through.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Oh, yuck. So it was bourbon, I will say. Oh my God. That was what was in there and we were having our, we were swagging from the boot. You're like the best
Starting point is 01:01:23 ready bogans in the game. At least when they were drinking out of the America's Cup last week, it was like mum champagne and it was, you know, clean inside, I'd imagine. As national champs, didn't you win a trophy that you could have drunk out of? No, the trophies that you win now, yes, it used to be one of these ones, you know, the handles with the big thing. And the ones you win now are more like statue type. You can't drink out of that.
Starting point is 01:01:44 You can't put anything in it. So you've got to go straight to the boot. Unshowered as well, we party. Yeah, right. It's the way straight from the field to the supermarket. That's the champion's way, man. That's the champion's way. What's this?
Starting point is 01:02:02 Is this what you march to? This is Colonel Bogey. Yeah. Colonel Bogey. Yeah. Colonel Bogey? Yeah. Look, this is the whistle from the film. Oh, right. This is just on the march's playlist.
Starting point is 01:02:14 You've got a playlist? No, this isn't quite the right version of it. But yeah, this is military-based music. But this is kind of what you march to at the weekend. Yeah, but it's slow. We march to 120. 120 BPM. What's this?
Starting point is 01:02:27 A little bit slower. Is it? Oh, okay. Yeah. I would never have known. Oh, I've got no idea about this world you live in. I liked your hat. Honestly, not many people do.
Starting point is 01:02:35 I liked your big, fluffy bee feeders. Beaky Puff. That's who the bitchy you were. Beaky Puff? Busbees. Yeah. Busbees. I swear to the picture Your pardon? The bee like Buzz bees Is that what the bee feeders hats are called too? Fluffy bee feeder, how dare you
Starting point is 01:02:53 Buzz bees I only know them as bee feeders because the only people I know that eat them, that wear them are the bee feeders We call them buzz bees in New Zealand Okay, alright You're getting an education in marching aren't you? Who made those? Where did you buy those? There's like specialists in the country that make marching stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:12 There is one bootmaker now in the country. Because the sport is not a thriving sport as much as it used to be. It is growing back, which is great. But there's one bootmaker in the country who makes every pair of boots. Who was more feral in Dunedin on Saturday night? You, after winning, you and your team or the students? Well, I would say us on Saturday night, but on St. Patrick's Day, which was
Starting point is 01:03:32 Wednesday night, oh my gosh, that I arrived in Dunedin and was like, get me out of this place. They were going psycho. They were all up and down the street smashing. They'd finish a bottle, they'd smash it on the ground. And then we were trying to drive back from training
Starting point is 01:03:47 and then two of them just hopped in the back of our car. We were like, hi. Like, get out, man. Oh, my Lord. And then on Saturday you returned the favour. You jumped into the back of some student's cars. You're like, let's go You're like... Play this song. It's the Colonel Boogie.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Fact of the day, day the different names for Huey, Dewey and Louie, Donald Duck's nephews. Yeah. In different languages. Oh, okay. Different countries in Europe.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Oh, is it not Huey, Dewey and Louie? Not across the board, no. No, that's like how, remember, big birds, different colours in different countries. Yeah, and... Why? Because they wanted it to represent more like how, remember, big birds, different colours in different countries. Yeah, and... Why? Because they wanted it to represent more like a local bird, I think.
Starting point is 01:04:49 I've never thought of this. What kind of a bird is Big Bird? Canary. Okay, thank you. Is that all you need? Only because he's yellow. That's sort of,
Starting point is 01:04:59 he's just like some monstrous... Well, he doesn't look like a canary, does he? I know, but I'm pretty sure it's been... His head is not that of a canary. No, I know. He does what he wants of a canary. No, I know. He does what he wants.
Starting point is 01:05:07 But I think that's what I read once. They said he was the closest to a canary just because he was yellow. Right. And there was nothing else. Well, thank you for answering that. For me, two facts of the day. Bonus. So here are Huidu and Louis III.
Starting point is 01:05:21 Did you also know that there's a fourth cousin called Phooey and it was because back in the day they were drawing one and someone mucked it up and he said oh and they said who's that and he said it's the fourth one and it's called Phooey. It's a joke. And then in the 2017 DuckTales reboot they actually made Phooey a guest star on one of the episodes. Anyway that's beside the play. Three facts
Starting point is 01:05:40 today. Louie and Phooey. So I've also got loaded up in another tab my map of Europe because I cannot tell what country is what in Europe. Is Europe not just a country? Just different big cities. Apparently not. We continue to learn.
Starting point is 01:05:57 So in that big one there, which is Germany. Oh, my God. Are you that bad? Are you that bad? Yes. Germany and France confused me and then Spain's on the end. Okay, so France is right down there.
Starting point is 01:06:10 Okay, I got it now. In Germany, they're called Tick, Track, Tick, Trick, Track. Okay. Tick, Trick and Track are Donald Duck's nephews in Germany.
Starting point is 01:06:22 I don't know. They just wanted to change it up. In, that one at the top, Norway, they are Oli, Dolly and Dauphin. Cute. Oli, Dolly and Dauphin. And the Faroe Islands, they're Dinny, Danny and Dunny. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:36 In, is it Iceland or Greenland? Iceland because it's green. Greenland is icy. Rip, Rap and rup. Okay. In Estonia, they are hoops, toops and loops. Oh, that one's a bit silly.
Starting point is 01:06:53 That's cute, isn't it? And just below Estonia, there's a country called Latvia and they are tricks, tricks and tricks. But all spelt slightly differently. Ticks, tricks and tricks. In Russia, they're Billy, Villy, and Dilly. How good's that? It's good. It's good. Billy, Villy, and
Starting point is 01:07:14 Dilly. In Turkey, they're Sin, Can, Kim. Okay. In Italy, they're Cui, Quo, Cui. That's hard. Cui, Quo, Cui. In France, they're Ri, Ri, Ri, Fi Fi and Lulu, which doesn't work as well, does it? No. No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 01:07:30 In Spain, they are Juanito, Joguito and Jaimito. Oh, I like that one. Yeah, that's nice. Portugal, they're, oh, I don't even know how to say that. Give it a go. Huguenho, Zezuino and Luzuino. No, I don't think you've said that correctly. I have not.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Definitely not. There is very little chance of that. What's this little country called? Luxembourg. They are Bobik, Duluk and Kuluk. Yeah, so they've all got different names, but they're all kind of the thing that they have in common is that they rhyme.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Oh, right. That one is Bosnia-Herzegovina. Who knew? They went to an effort to put in their own one and the bots said Bosnia-Herzegovina. They're Raja, Gaja and Valaja. Oh, I like those. Raja, Gaja, Valaja. So yeah, today's fact of the day is Donald Duck's nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie have
Starting point is 01:08:22 a whole lot of different names in different European countries. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. A Sydney man has opened up about his horror date in a book called Today I F'd Up. And this is quite a yarn. So he was going on a date with Adriana, goes round and her cat escapes or is missing. So they spend a lot of the date looking for this cat, Klaus. And he finds Klaus under some stairs. Okay.
Starting point is 01:09:08 And he attempts to lead the cat out with some cat food. Yes. Like, here, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty. And manages to get close enough that he can get down and pick up the cat, but attaches to his arm and scratches him. Huge gashes in his arm. Bleeding, he's bleeding. He ends up going home
Starting point is 01:09:29 and he's like, oh, just super glue these gashes together because, I don't know, he didn't have bandages or didn't want to go to the doctor. Stitches do, right? They just hold things together. Yeah, because I don't know
Starting point is 01:09:43 if you've seen, I think there is a medical glue that's been invented, right? Yes, yes. That does that. Yeah, yeah. So I think in his mind, he's like, well, super glue is the same thing. Yeah. Medical grade.
Starting point is 01:09:53 Medical grade super glue. Anyway, it gets so bad, it gets infected. Of course it does. His whole arm gets infected. He goes to the doctor and they're like, you may lose your hand. We're going to have to amputate your hand. They rush into surgery. They're able to save the hand and the arm. Oh my
Starting point is 01:10:10 gosh. So he ends up getting surgery. They fix his wounds and stitch them up and he is now here to tell the tale of his horrid tender date. This is making me feel sick. Where a cat gashes his arm and he's super glued together. Bloody Klaus. What came of Klaus?
Starting point is 01:10:26 I don't think Klaus is still with Adriana, but I don't think Adriana and Adam are together. And that's been, that's one of the stories in the new book that's out today, I effed up. Oh my gosh. You know what I mean? I think he did quite majorly. That is big time eff up.
Starting point is 01:10:39 Yeah. Because that's, you know, the woman who's super glued her hair down, gorilla glued her hair down to her head instead of gel. And everyone was like, that's, you know, the woman who super glued her hair down, gorilla glued her hair down to her head instead of gel. And everyone was like, that's dumb. But at least it's not an open wound. Well, yeah, exactly. Also, I feel we never got a follow-up on that woman who glued her hair down, did we?
Starting point is 01:10:55 She got a surgery. No, she got a free surgery, a plastic, one of the top Hollywood plastic surgeons fixed it for her. Yeah, removed it all for her. He actually ended up making a... Did we see it, though, after the... Yeah, I think she... She still had it here. He made a concoction
Starting point is 01:11:07 or something with like olive oil and something in it. He worked out how to like... Dissolve it. Dissolve the glue basically and here
Starting point is 01:11:13 is perfect, yeah. But I thought, could we take some calls this morning? When did you go on a Tinder date and get an injury? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:20 Like maybe you thought, well, go on a Tinder date you went mountain biking. Yeah. And mountain biking maybe isn't for you. Maybe you don't do a lot on a Tinder date, you went mountain biking. Yeah. And mountain biking maybe isn't for you. Maybe you don't do a lot of biking. Then you get your hand amputated. Or maybe you went for a nice beach walk and you fell down a cliff.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Yeah. I'm just brainstorming some ideas. Brainstorming some horrendous accidents. But, you know, you do, don't you? You might do something a bit different on a date. Yeah, and you might have lied about your ability to do that thing. Mountain biking is a great example because if you can ride a bike you're like how hard can it be i'll just go slow and then all of a sudden the guy you're on a date with going off jumps and you're at bloody and you just go works thing and crank works you're at crank
Starting point is 01:11:58 works you're like you're lining up the massive you've lined up the massive tabletop jump with the huge lead in yeah and you're on your ass. We are talking about when you've injured yourself on a date, whether it was a Tinder date, whatever. A man has, he went to go get someone's lost cat on a Tinder date. You know, doing the nice thing. I'm going to find this woman's cat. I'll be the favourite.
Starting point is 01:12:20 The hero. The hero. The cat gave him huge gashes. He tried to super glue those together rather than go to the doctor and infected his arm, nearly lost his hand because of it. So when have you injured yourself on a date? My now husband and I, on our second date, went for a walk up a river because it was picturesque and beautiful.
Starting point is 01:12:41 Oh, beautiful. However, we were taking a photo on one of the rocks and he fell backwards 12 foot down a rock. 12 foot? Yeah, down a little waterfall and broke his coccyx. And when I was trying to help him, I severely dislocated my wrist. We both ended up in Tauranga Hospital. Romance.
Starting point is 01:12:58 What is the coccyx? Are they still together now? The coccyx? Yeah, they're married. Isn't the bum bit, isn't that a bum bit? Yeah. Is that the tailbone? Yeah, they're married. Isn't the bum bit, isn't that a bum bit? Yeah. Is that the tailbone? Yeah, that feels about right, right?
Starting point is 01:13:09 Coccyx, tailbone? Yeah, tailbone. Because that, I've chipped my tailbone before and it was the most excruciating pain. I can't imagine Bray. Also, imagine if he'd like slipped backwards and died and then everyone would be like, oh, you pushed him off a waterfall.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Yeah. And you'd be like, I didn't! Wait, if that if you were on a Tinder date and they slipped off and broke the coxswains and died, would you go to the funeral? You've only met them for like half an hour. No! Oh my god. You'd have to, wouldn't you?
Starting point is 01:13:38 But then if you didn't go, you'd look guilty! I know, where is she? You'd have to speak. You'd have to speak at the funeral, you'd have to commentate the whole thing. You can't speak. I knew Michael for 35 minutes. We matched on Tinder. It was beautiful. Instantly, I knew I'd like him.
Starting point is 01:13:50 He sent me a picture of his penis, but it was totally solicited. So, like, no judge. I was so looking forward to it. No judge. And I never got to. I never got to see it in person. And now it's in the box.
Starting point is 01:14:04 All right. Oh, I think Drew told me. Should we just have a little look? You can text 9696 whenever you injured yourself on a date. I'm trying to think if I've ever injured myself on a date. I don't think so. Nothing too bad. Maybe your pride.
Starting point is 01:14:19 Yeah. Oh, a lot of pride has been injured. A lot of that? Yeah. Some not physical. Richard's messaged in. Okay. He said,
Starting point is 01:14:27 at first date, I was talked into playing indoor netball for her indoor netball team. That's not... What kind of romantic setting is that? Yeah, because people get pretty feral in indoor netball, don't they? I remember, yeah,
Starting point is 01:14:38 I've never played, but we'd play indoor cricket next to the indoor netball. It's ferocious. What if he found out that he hadn't clipped his fingernails? Oh, he wouldn't be playing. You know, you've got to go in in the middle and show your fingernails.
Starting point is 01:14:48 Nail inspection. I ruptured my Achilles tendon. Yeah, not stretching before. Let's just say she was always on top right from the start, but we've been together for 20 years. Oh! That's pretty cute. Rebecca, what happened?
Starting point is 01:15:03 Hi, before I went on the date, you know, you have a shower, you get ready,'s pretty cute. Rebecca, what happened? Hi. So I went on a date. Before I went on a date, you know, you have a shower, you get ready, you have, you know, the long shower. Oh, yeah, of course. Yes, of course. And then I hopped out, slipped, hit my head, knocked myself unconscious on the sink. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:15:17 Like that's what they have, those little rubber. ACC? Yeah, those rubber mats at the hotels, you know. Yes. We broke uni students. We did not have the rubber mats at the hotels. Yes. We're broke uni students. We did not have the rubber mats. So I got knocked unconscious. My flight mates took me to the hospital.
Starting point is 01:15:31 So I messaged this guy going, like, hey, I can't make this date. I'm in the hospital. Like, I hit my head getting out of the shower. And he, like, went off at me going, you don't have to lie to, you know, get out of the date with me. Did you send him a photo from the hospital bed? Yeah, I mean, I was in hospital for a week afterwards. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:15:49 I had a severe concussion. And what did he say when you sent the photo? He was like, no, because he went off at me for a while, and then I sent the photo. I was like, I promise you I'm not lying, and he felt so bad. But I was kind of mad at that point. I was like, why would you think I'd lie to you? So, I mean, I didn't even let him
Starting point is 01:16:05 have another date, to be honest. It does sound like an excuse someone would use, though. Yeah. Some other text messages. Went to his place. He was working on a dairy farm on our first date. Got nervous, had a few drinks, fell down the stairs and broke my ankle in three places. Oh,
Starting point is 01:16:21 no. Four years later, it's still a pretty good story. I was on a date and the guy's car engine caught fire and they say in brackets just a small one. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Regardless. So small car fires. See if I'm going to have a fire in my car I want it to be big so you can get the insurance for it. So you can stand back. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:38 Stand back, be that person. Watch it burn out and then when it's there for a couple of days before the insurance company comes and gets it everyone drives past and they're like,
Starting point is 01:16:45 shit, what happened there? Yeah, I hope they're all right. Yeah. So what are we going to start a date? We pulled over. He got tools out to disconnect engine bits.
Starting point is 01:16:54 That's hot. He threw a metal spanner back into the car, threw the window and it bounced off the back seat and smashed me right in the head. Was it like an angry throw with some force?
Starting point is 01:17:04 Or maybe he was just like, I don't need that one anymore and flicking it in the window and it bounced off the back seat, cracked her right in the head, made her bleed down the head, caught her right in the... Oh my god. That's terrible. Now this one comes with no explanation, but I lost me two front teeth on the date.
Starting point is 01:17:19 Somebody said. How? I need to know how. Same. Can you follow that up please? Yeah, I could ask how. Hold on I need to know how. Same. Can you follow that up, please? Yeah, I could ask how. Hold on. Just let me reply. How? Did you question mark or just how?
Starting point is 01:17:30 No, I put a question mark as well. Oh, good. Because otherwise it's confusing. Confusing. How? My Tinder date was biking to meet me for the first time. I got hit by a car on his way to my house. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:17:42 We spent the date sitting in hospital for five hours. All the nurses kept commenting on what a good girlfriend I was staying with my boyfriend. Literally, they know We spent the date sitting in hospital for five hours. All the nurses kept commenting on what a good girlfriend I was staying with my boyfriend. Literally they know I'd never met the guy before. But what do you do
Starting point is 01:17:50 in that situation? Like you don't know the person. Five hours is too long for a stranger. But once you commit to going to the hospital and then you realise it's boring
Starting point is 01:17:58 and you're not connecting it's hard to be like I'm gonna go. No once they go through the doors they'll be like you're good now. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:03 Do you want me to call someone for you? It was so nice to meet you. Yeah, this won't be happening again. You're obviously a klutz. Yeah. Well, not if he got hit by a car on his bike. That's not his. Oh, yeah, sorry, I thought you just fell off his bike. No, that's
Starting point is 01:18:16 not his fault. He got hit by a car. Klutz. Klutz. Get out of the way of the car, you klutz. I had lied about my ability to surf when I was younger to impress a hot young lad. I nearly drowned. Thank God I'm older and wiser now. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:33 Surfing. We live and we learn. We do. That's definitely not something you could lie about. It's definitely not something you can go like, oh, I'll probably get up. I'll probably get up. It'll be fine.
