Has explosive diarrhoea For once It's Vaughan For once it's Vaughan's turn With the explosive diarrhoea So he's at home today Yeah Sick but exciting news

Especially for those in Auckland Haircuts Haircuts. Haircuts available from Thursday. I didn't book a haircut, but I booked a facial and I booked getting my nails done. I was like, get on the phone. Executive Intern, you not only booked, you booked the hairdresser. I believe you were first in for a BYO. Yeah.

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I was like, on to the friend chat. And I was like, right, where are we going? Let's get these wheels in motion. But that's not Thursday for BYOs. That's when we go into traffic lights. Yes, but it's like 11.59 on Thursday night. So I thought Friday, 8pm, we are good to go.

So I've got the green light for my BYO. 8pm for a BYO? Yeah, I'll have a nap. That's bedtime. I'll have a nap. Oh my God, after a week of early starts, you'll be asleep on the table. Who cares? I'll be a bottle of rosé deep.

I'll be absolutely totally boo. So when are you getting your hair cut? Like 12 hours after I'm allowed to. Wow. Wow, you got in straight away. Hair dresses in salons are going to be open until like midnight. They could probably open 24-7.

They could do shifts. I saw a lot of them saying, yeah, there's not going to be a Christmas break this year. We're just going to go right through. Wow. Instead of taking a holiday. Well, I guess you've had

three months break, so. Yeah. Guess you've got to make up for it. All right. We're back in business, baby. Yeah. Another chance to win cash on the show today with our Cookie Time Christmas buckets, which I've had some for breakfast because I forgot my breakfast.

Oh, yeah. Yes. But they're plant-based. I can say, yeah, plant-based. So I've actually had plants for breakfast. Yeah. Good on you. So it's the Cookie Flip.

Just got to listen out for the activator. It's going to play sometime on the show before 7 o'clock this morning. Next, though. How many times did you get tagged in this story, Executive Intern Anya? Three times. A story about redheads. Later. Delve into that next.

ZDM's Fletchborn and Megan. Well, Executive Intern Anya, you would have been tagged in this a lot on Facebook yesterday. Yesterday and the other 24 years of my life. Headline, redheads really do have stronger tolerance for pain than others. Mm-hmm. Do you find that true? Yeah. Have you ever had like dental surgery

or any kind of surgery where they've had to give you anesthetic? Because they say that you, redheads need a little bit more, right? Oh, like they have to horse-trank you, don't they? Yeah, too tough, yeah. Is that apparently a thing? Yeah, and also like when I get laser, they'll say like, okay, here you go, three, two, one, and I'm like, absolutely fine.

Is that it? Keep going, go pace, three, two, one. And I'm like, absolutely fine. Is that it? Keep going. Turn it up. Yeah. Wow. Okay. So this article starts by saying redheads have a reputation for being hot-tempered. Fair.

Although they said there's no scientific proof for that. But a recent study has found that they have a stronger tolerance for pain. So animals and humans alike, those with red hair, have slightly different protein receptors on the surface of their melanin sites on their skin. I don't know. But yeah, actually it's a thing. But then you knew that, and this is another study just proving it,

that you're tough. Yeah, I don't want to flex, but pretty tough. But it's also awkward when they say like, oh, you know, scale of one to ten, you know, how's your pain? Because I feel like it's a very Kiwi thing to be like, three? Can't even feel it. I know. I always find that really hard.

You're like, is it a five? No, that's too much. They're like, it's really not a hard question. You're like, no, it is. No, but it is. It is hard because I got asked that with my back recently. I'm like, five? And then I'm like, no, maybe a four.

Okay, three. But then sometimes it goes up to a seven, but not right now. Right now. Is childbirth a 10? Like, where is the scale? That's like a, that's not on that scale. That's like being torn in half. That's like, am I about to die?

That's a different scale. So 15? Yeah, at least. That's like, is this normal? Am I going to die? All of these questions. I hate you for doing this to me. But you're literally, your legs like detached.

And you're like, three. I don't want to overstate things. I'm a New Zealander. Let's calm down. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Megan. Tomorrow, ZM from eight until five every hour, giving you the chance to win a double pass to see Justin Bieber with the Justin Bieber Ticket Blitz. His show next year in New Zealand.

All those details at ZM Online. Countdown has been sent a warning from Lego to ensure that the Countdown bricks are not to be confused with Lego because they're not at all associated. Hence why they're calling them Countdown bricks are not to be confused with Lego because they're not at all associated. Hence why they're calling them Countdown bricks. Yeah, they've never called them Lego, but I've called them Lego.

Yeah. Everyone's calling them Lego because it's like Glad Wrap. Yeah. It's like sellotape. It's like other things called something different, but you just think it's the first thing that got invented. Sellotape.

Yeah. That's a brand, right? There's it's the first thing that got invented. Solitaire. Yeah. That's a brand, right? There's a word for that, right? Yeah. Where the brand name becomes synonymous with the thing. Like it's not lunch wrap. I can never remember what that word is. Nah, neither.

Yeah. How would I even Google to find that? What's that thing called where everything's called the same? Where the brand takes over the name of the thing? I don't know. What is the name where the brand is? So Lego, which is the big Danish company, they sent a letter to Woolworths Australia.

They're the people that own Countdown. They asked that the Countdown bricks promotion does not feature any Lego bricks or products and they have asked to ensure that their brand name is not mistakenly used in relation to the activity. So it's not like a cease and desist but they're like hey, you bloody

watch yourselves. No. See Jared, you've said, producer Jared said it's genericization. Genericization. That's no, that's instead the brand name becomes a general term for the type of product. Maybe that is it. Genericization.

I thought it was called something else. I mean, I think we're getting caught up on one word here. We understand what you're talking about. Hmm. An eponym? Maybe that's it. Hmm. Anyway.

Anyway. So a spokesperson from Countdown has said Yes we are doing everything we can They want them to ensure Yeah it's not any No communication is to mention Lego It's made by Unger Unger? Do you know that brand?

No So like not associated with Leo at all. How do you spell it? U-N-G-A. And they said they are doing everything they can, although they haven't said what. Everything possible to make sure. That's United Nations General Assembly.

What? Unger. Why are they making bricks? I don't know. Unger toys or plastics? No. Oh, they are a company that provides retailers globally with short-term loyalty campaigns tailored for kids and families.

They did like Marvel superheroes. They probably do the little supermarkets. Right. Anything plasticky that supermarkets give away for free. Huh. So not like a giant toy company or something like that. No. But yes, call them Bricks, not Lego.

Otherwise, Lego will come and sue you. But they can't sue me. So if we call them... They'd give it a good try, I reckon. You're right. Okay. Yeah. Countdown Bricks, not Lego.

Jared's got the whole Lego set. He does. From Countdown. Yeah. Bricks. It actually looks so fun. Yeah. It is.

Next. He's a big kid. Gen Z, we can blame them for something bloody stupid on TikTok. This is another generation fight. Yeah. God, the media loves that, don't they? So we watch. ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan.

I think this is the first time I've felt old and I've felt like I don't understand the youth because Gen Z are doing something. This is a new makeup trend on TikTok and it's I don't understand. So apparently I mean your husband's Gen Z right? No he's a millennial.

1994. Okay. He's stuck in. I'm an outer millennial. He's on the cast. He's stuck in. I'm an outer millennial. He's on the cusp. Yeah, okay. So you should understand. Yeah, okay, fine. But I don't understand this at all. I don't think, yeah, I don't think even our Gen Z-er here would understand this.

Well, should we ask who we ask? Carween. So there's a trend on TikTok, Carween, where people are now giving themselves dark under eye circles. So whether it be with lipstick or like contour. Yeah, they're putting dark under circles under their eyes. Right. Now, Carween at the social media desk. Hi.

Gen Z, you work these brutal breakfast radio hours and you've probably got some free bags under the eyes. Yeah, mine are free. I'm constantly trying to get rid of them. Yes. So this is beyond me. But this is a young person's game because then when you do get to any kind of age over what, 20s,

and you start having late nights and you get the dark circles, you want to get rid of them. Yeah. Yeah, concealer is trying to conceal these, not create them. I literally spend at least five minutes every morning putting concealer under there. Yeah.

Now, maybe we should just embrace it because, yeah, people are like, is it like I'm so hung over? Like, I don't understand. But apparently it's quite cute. I don't know. Is it like I'm too cool to sleep? I don't know. I don't need sleep. Yeah. I don't know. Is it like, I'm too cool to sleep? I don't know. I don't need sleep.

Yeah. I get so much sleep, I want to make it look like I don't get sleep. Yeah. Do you know anyone that does this? No. No. Yeah, it's wild, isn't it? I think we're all trying to cover up the circles.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, maybe that's it. After COVID and everything, we're like, just embrace the under-eye bags. Hey, we're finally on trend and we didn't even do anything. Accidentally on trend, yeah. Now,

63% of parents are in a study. Now, this is out of America, but this does ring true. And I'm sure it'll ring true in a lot of children's childhoods growing up. 63% of parents admit they'd happily pay less for expensive holiday toy knockoffs. Oh, yeah.

I mean, I got a Cindy, not a Barbie. And that always, I remember that to this day. That's what you call a knockoff, right? Yeah. But it's not our Barbie. It's not like a Thailand Barbie. It was the cheaper version. And it was noticeably different.

And I always got a bit teased when people came over and they're like, should we play Barbies? I was like, yep, here's my Barbie. And you have Cindy. A Cindy. Yeah. And then you try and give her a haircut. To be fair, it did the same thing.

It stuck up. Yeah. Yeah. But I always wanted a Barbie. But were you sad when you unwrapped the present and it was a Cindy? Yeah, but I don't know if I was vocal about it. I wasn't that much of a little biatch. Right.

But in my mind, I was like, well, this isn't a Barbie. Because I remember we got, we had Toro, which wasn't Lego. But that was actually better because you had a massive bucket of it. Yeah, right. And it still did all the same things. I don't think you had like little Lego men and stuff. Yeah. I remember getting.

But I mean, it was fine. You know, like I think it was Adidas snap pants that had the domes down the side. Oh, yep. Everyone had those. I had ones with four stripes. Yeah, same. Yeah. I was like, it's not even a good knockoff because everyone can see it's got four stripes.

You know, from a distance though, everyone thought you had it at S, didn't they? Yeah. Until they got close up. And then, yeah. Yeah. Don't do that to your children. Just don't get it. But they're like, I mean, it's so expensive.

What's better, getting the knockoff or not getting them at all? And just pretending that maybe you do have it it but you're not showing your mates? Yeah. I don't know. I don't know, but I don't think, do kids care as much? Like, did your friends judge you for having a Cindy? Absolutely. Oh, okay.

And it's stuck with me all these years later. Yeah, you're still bringing it up, aren't you? Okay, maybe. Fletchbourne and Megan's Christmas Coffee Tips. Let's see. Well, it's a chance this week to win $500 cash, all thanks to Cookie Time and Christmas Cookies. We've got the cookie flip.

3rd of December. Yes. Auckland will obviously, the borders aren't going to open until the 15th of December, but we got the date. But it was during this press conference yesterday that we were witness to. A little tanty.

Well, yeah. Can only be described as an adult tantrum from Barry Soper. I'll just kind of scan that around. Just, Barry, if you don't mind, I'm just going to come to a few people who haven't had a chance, and then I'll double back to you. Barry, quite a few people need to go, so I just want to be fair. Yeah, Mark? Quick question, Barry.

Barry, if you'd just a little more patience, and then I'll double back to those on Timelets, which I think include the TVs. But, Mark, okay, I will come. Jessica, then Barry, and you just a little more patience, and then I'll double back to those on Timelets, which I think include the TVs. But Mark. Okay, I will come. Jessica, then Barry, and then Jenna. Barry, TVs are on deadlines as well.

Jessica, and so did you. Barry, I'm going to ask for a little decorum. And then she goes to Jessica, and then she goes back to Barry and Barry's gone. Barry had a tanty and stormed out. Barry stormed out, didn't he? When the Prime Minister's telling you to have a little bit of decorum, like you're essentially being told off.

I don't know how she did it so smiling. So she handled that so well. Yeah. He wasn't like, that was cut up. So that was that so well. Yeah. He wasn't, like, that was cut up. So that was over the whole press conference. He just kept on interrupting and just really wanted his question asked. He was in a rush. What was he in a rush for? I don't know.

Dinner? Had some answer. I don't know. But she was right. The TVs were on deadline and she likes to share around the questions. Yeah. They've got to get their stories ready for the six o'clock news, don't they?

Yeah. But he might have had a radio interview that afternoon or something, a deadline. Yeah. But yeah,

she wasn't taking it. And he wasn't taking no for an answer. And then yeah, when she went back to him, he's gone. So one can only assume he stormed off

and we have just witnessed a live on TV, an adult tanty. I was so embarrassed for him. But it's definitely happened to people, adult tantrums. And that's what we wanted to talk about this morning because when you see an adult tantrum in public, there is nothing better. I mean, maybe they can be described as a bit of a Karen moment.

Yeah. Maybe it's an argument between your partner and you've just had enough and you decided you don't care who sees. It's the end of a Karen moment. Yeah. Maybe it's an argument between your partner and you've just had enough and you decided you don't care who sees. It's the end of a long day or maybe you've a long holiday or road trip. Yeah. And tempers have fled

and you've just had a little adult tanty in the middle of a restaurant. Yeah, maybe it was you and you're willing to admit now that that's what happened. Yeah. Or maybe you saw someone else. Well, you know, I'm very,

I get very hangry. Yeah. So I'm... You I get very hangry. Yeah. So I'm... You don't throw tantrums, though. You're just, like, very quiet and angry. But, you know, the possibility for a hangry tantrum is there. It's definitely there. It's there.

We keep you well fed. Yeah, just feed me and I'm happy. Yeah. Yep. I'm like a zoo animal. Yeah. A Tasmanian devil. Yes.

Keep it fed and he's fine. So we want to open up the phone lines this morning. 0800 DARS at M. You can text as well, 9696. When did you have an adult tantrum or when did you witness an adult tantrum? Even if you saw one in the wild. And maybe they were getting told off. Yeah.

Share it with us. We want to know when you've had an adult tantrum. Barry Soper yesterday had a wee moment with Jacinda. He's one of the journalists at the press conferences. You always hear him. He's got the deep voice, deep gravelly voice. Yeah, he's got the deep gravelly voice. Got a few questions in, but had a few more to get.

And Jacinda told him to please wait his turn and have some decorum. We didn't like that. And then he wasn't there. No. So we can only assume. And then he wasn't there. No. So we can only assume. But then he did write an article saying that the press conferences seemed to be all about media control. But that's probably because he didn't have anything to write a story about

because he didn't stick around to ask his question. So props to him for making a story out of that. Yeah. It's always you have the tantrum and then afterwards you're like, I'm a little bit embarrassed. Like this text. I had a tantee at a mini golf game. I was losing and I cracked it.

And I threw my club across the inside room. I didn't play the last few rounds and I watched like an idiot. I was so embarrassed. But you have to own it then. You can't slunk back. You can't go back. Exactly. Lee, when did you have an adult tantee?

Wow. I didn't. I've witnessed two people, actually, well, it was three on the same day in the same situation a couple of weeks ago. So we live, I'm not going to tell you where we live in case people are listening. So I've got to go through country roads to get home. And there were roadworks. And I was turning right in towards the roadworks. But the traffic was backed up to the intersection.

So it was a stop sign. And I'm like, well, I can't go because I'm going to end up blocking the intersection. So there was an impatient driver behind me, decided to go to the left of me, which you can't do, and turn right. And so he was then blocking the intersection. When I turned right, I thought, you bugger. He actually

didn't get any further ahead because there were makes of traffic lights controlling the traffic. And so I actually gave him the bird as if to say, well, what did you achieve, you idiot? Anyway, so then he gave me the bird, and then he put his foot on the accelerator

and really went towards the next lot of traffic lights, but then there was a guy that was two cars behind me, saw her, he got out of the car, and I thought, what's he doing? He got out of the car and went to the guy in front of me that had overtaken me and tore strips off him for being an idiot. The next thing, his missus, who was a really tiny thing,

looks like a Barbie doll, got out of the car and goes down towards this guy and gives him what for. And then the driver of the car in front gets out and gives him all these obscene hand gestures. And I just slunk down in my car and was like, I'm not even here. But then little did he know, I had a cop's phone number on my phone, and I rang and dobbed him in.

Well, he was a naughty bugger, apparently. I'm not telling you what was wrong. Lee, this escalated quite quickly, didn't it? I think everyone's a little bit on edge at the moment, aren't they? But their patience has worn thin. Of course Lee has a cop's phone number. Don't mess with Lee is what we've learned from that. Sonia, when did you witness

an adult tantee? Well, it was a time that my husband and I actually went to Christchurch for the Darude concert. Sad storm banger. Yeah, how every great story starts. Oh, absolutely.

And we were so pumped. We were so excited. So we went out, had dinner, had a few drinks. And we had probably, well, I was fine, but my husband had a few too many. And we rocked up to the door and the guy was like, sorry, you've had too much to drink. And I'm like, you've got to be serious.

We're at the Rude Concert. We've come all the way up here and you're declining us. You know, you're not letting us in. So the guy was like, nope, sorry. And I turned around and I was just like, I've lost my SHIT. Threw my tickets in the air, left my husband, stormed down the street, back to the hotel room, and, yeah, fair to say that we never, ever live there down with our friends now. And every time you hear Darude Sandstorm.

You didn't get to see Darude Sandstorm. Never get to see Darude Sandstorm, but I actually, I full-on break out in a dance and pretend that I was at the concert. I mean, that's exactly proving the point of the bouncer when you lose your shit and have a tantee that you're too drunk. Oh, absolutely. She's gone in without him, left your husband

outside. Totally. Sonia, thanks. You call some messages in. So someone had, this is a checkout chick that they called themselves that. I had some technical issues and halfway through a guy's groceries, we had to reboot and change the checkouts. It happens. He got so upset, he started throwing his groceries into the trolley.

This comes after he complained that I was scanning his groceries too fast and wanted me to be more gentle with him. Don't you want them to scan fast? Yeah. There's lots of golf, lots of mini golf tantrums where people are just throwing the putt. It's because the angles, the angles get you. You're like.

And once you realise you're too far behind, even if it is a friendly match, you're like, well, this sucks, I'm not playing anymore. Definitely done that. My wife and I were having a bit of an argument once. She had an adult tantrum. In her anger, she tried to throw whatever she had in her hand

in the ground as hard as she could and then storm out. Apparently, she had paper in her hand and when it didn't float well, when it didn't throw down well, she packed even more of a set. Amazing. You're trying to throw something down on the ground and the paper floats down.

Lots of adult tanties. All right, 20 past seven. Next on the show. The tattoos that men find most attractive on women. Is it Carwin's My Little Pony tattoo? Her rainbow? That does not appear to be on the list. No.

ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan. Tattoos definitely mean something about your personality because, you know, you choose to put be on the list. No. ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Tattoos definitely mean something about your personality because, you know, you choose to put them on your body. And there are some that men find most attractive on women, apparently. Okay. The first one is... And for the record, we should say that, Megan, neither of us, Vaughan's the same, Vaughan's away,

but none of us have tattoos. No. And I'm not against them. I'mn's the same. Vaughn's away but none of us have tattoos. No. And I'm not against them. I'm just very fickle. I've always thought I'd get one but then two years later I'm like, oh, I'm glad I didn't get that. Because I always change my

mind. So I feel like I'm too fickle. I yo-yo too much to have a tattoo. You know, like I could get a circle and then in a month it'll be an oval and then it'll be a circle and another month after that. I'm just like, I don't need that worry. What can you get where it won't matter?

Just get like a cute little animal so it just gets a little belly. Yeah, I'm not against a tattoo. It just would have to have meaning. Yeah. And I'm just like, eh. Yeah. A meaning. Yeah. And I'm just like, eh. Yeah. A meaning for you.

You wouldn't get it for anyone. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah. So, I mean, the only person on the show that has a tattoo, well, Jared has tattoos, but this. Does he? You know he's got tattoos.

He's got pizza. And he's got Africa. That. He's got Africa. That's right got Africa. He's got Africa. That's right. What else has he got? Is there other ones? Those ones on his arms that you can see.

South Africans and Australians love having the map of their country. It's like they forget where they are. They'll have the map to get home. Have you not seen everyone get a New Zealand tattoo? I don't feel we do it as much as Australians and South Africans. Yes, we do. Australians also love the Southern Cross. Yeah.

Big fans of astronomy. Well, Karwin is the only female on the show who has a tattoo. Well, what an honour. A rainbow. A rainbow. But that, Karwin, we can tell you is not on the list of tattoos that men find attractive about women. No, sadly. The first one is cherries, a pair of cherries.

Apparently men find those attractive. Like a pokey machine. Oh, yeah. But apparently it's because it has kind of a sexual connotation and it says that a woman is fun, flirty, and approachable. Do you guys know anyone, any friends with cherry tattoos? I don't think so. I feel like I've seen people my age that have them. Right.

But I don't know if I know anyone personally. Yeah. Is it a Harry Styles reference? Because of his song? Yeah, it's a song, Cherry. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, maybe. Latin.

So apparently, Latin sayings. There was this guy that said, I once dated a woman who had a wrist tattoo and it said in Latin, the light shines in the darkness. But apparently it's sexier in Latin and it's the mystery of it. So nobody really knows what it says.

So you could just make up a new saying every time you meet someone different. Just find some deep saying that like, you know, works with them. You think would appeal to them, yeah. Yeah, exactly, yeah. Simple tattoos. So lines and shapes and geometric thin lines. The example they've got is the doot-doot on a...

Heartbeat. A heartbeat line. Simple lines and borders apparently are quite attractive to men on women heartbeat line. Simple lines and borders apparently are quite attractive to men on women. Okay. Also, the very specific bird, the swallow,

is apparently quite attractive. It's pretty cute and... Is that... Do you have a picture? Yeah. That's not going to help our listeners right now. It's the one that has

like a little split tail. And it's like... It's a cute little... Yeah, that's your classic bird tattoo, isn't it? Yeah. It symbolises everlasting love in spring. Hmm. And the last one, this is the tattoos that men find most attractive on women.

The Playboy Bunny logo. Is it? Have I got it? Unless you're interested in Playboy Bunny logo. Is it? Have I got it? Unless you're interested in Playboy Bunny because men like tattoos about things that they're interested in. Right.

If I had a bike, you'd be like, hot. No, I wouldn't be. I'm trying to think of things that you're, or like tramping boots. Do you mean a bicycle? Yeah. Megan, I have a bike and I go hiking every now and again, but I don't want to tattoo that. Those are your interests. No, yeah, but. Do you mean a bicycle? Yeah. Megan, I have a bike and I go hiking every now and again, but I don't want to tattoo that. That's your interest.

No, yeah, but. What else are you into that we can have a tattoo of? Again, you're talking to someone that doesn't have a tattoo at all. So, yeah. What else do you like? You like caramel. Oh, my God. I'll get the caramel.

Although I actually am now team Milky Bar Gold. You are actually. And I'm having some arguments over this at the moment with people because they're saying, how can you do that to team Caramel? And I'm like, well, Milky Bar Gold is now number one in my book. I'm going to tattoo over my Caramel tattoo. I'm still not interested, Megan. I'm still not interested, but thank you for that list.

CDM's Fletchborn and Megan. Adele's new album 30. It's out. It's massive. She's everywhere but she did have a request from Spotify. She said it's the only thing she's ever requested

but she wanted her album 30 to be played as she intended it. She said we don't create albums with so much care and thought into our track listing for no reason. Our art tells a story and our story should be listened to as we intended. Thank you Spotify

for listening. So the shuffle button is now gone if you go to an album. All albums? Yeah. We were just trying this out on some random albums. And yeah, it's gone. We were checking if it was just Adele, whether it was all albums.

So if you go to an artist, you can shuffle all songs. But if you pick a specific album, you can't. And you could get an album and just drag all the songs and make a playlist and shuffle that. Yeah. But not albums anymore. And some people aren't happy. Some people are ego much. But does it

matter? Does it really matter? Not really. Not to us. It matters to her. And artists do do this because they start the album, there might be like a really high energy song and then they might go into a, they kind of, they really do think about the

order of songs. And this is obviously an emotional journey, this album for her. So she wants you to follow along with how she felt it, obviously. Yeah. Easy on me, just looking at the album 30 in the streams, 310 million. How long has that been out? Two weeks? No, maybe three, four?

It's not four weeks. On the album or the song? The song. No, it's been out a bit longer than that. I think it was four weeks. It's been four weeks, surely. I don't, it came out in November. Times are blur to me. Did it come out in November?

Yeah. No. Please Google that and find out because I need to know. So it's quite interesting. If you look at all the streams in the album, you can actually work out like what are the more popular songs. Like Oh My God has had 16 and a half million streams already, whereas some of them on the album have had like seven.

Right. Okay, apologies. It was out on October 15. Time, I don't know about time, eh? So what's that? Nearly four weeks. That felt like a week ago. Yeah.

Five even. Five weeks. Yeah, so is that an apology for me? Yeah. You're welcome. Quickly move on. Apology accepted. Yeah.

But yeah, so that's a big change. And I don't know if that's, is that permanent? Are they going to? Maybe. But why didn't they just do it for her albums? Because everyone's a bit like. They're testing it. Yeah.

I really, it doesn't affect me. I don't really know. No, and if you really want to shuffle an album, just make it a playlist. Yeah. Right? Easy. Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. ZM's Hunt for the Giant Briscoe's Lady.

12 minutes away from eight. This could quite possibly be the hardest radio competition ever we see your sarcasm celebrating the Briscoes Giant Black Friday Sale this Friday we have on our Facebook page each day a very hard photo of the Giant Briscoes Lady hiding somewhere around the country. And she's so giant because that's how big

the Black Friday sale is. And we've picked out a couple of winners from our Facebook post this morning. Good morning, Summer. Morning. Good morning, Steph. Morning. Now, it was very hard, but where was she hiding?

Beehive in Wellington. Yeah, how did you guys figure that out? Because I know our graphics department spent a lot of time trying to make that cryptic. That was pretty crazy. Yeah. You go into your eyes and then you head sideways. That's okay. You're not wrong.

That's the key. Well done. $500 Briscoe's cash for you. Well done. Give vouchers for you from Briscoe's. Thank you so much Spend them at the Giant Black Friday sale

On Friday ZDM's Fletchmore and Megan There's a new type of deception A new type of cheating You could be doing To your partner I think cheating is A strong word

Shouldn't be associated here But it's financially cheating So apparently Oh you are guilty of this All the time shouldn't be associated here, but it's financially cheating. So apparently... Oh, you are guilty of this all the time. Like, okay, yeah. I don't even know all my defences. In fact, what did this study find? What, not even 50%, just shy of 50% admitted this.

Yeah, that they're financially cheated. Surely it's got to be higher. Yeah. Sneaky purchases online like clothes. But it's not only that. It's when they have secret money that they don't tell their partner about. So that or purchases or... Do you have secret money?

No, I don't have secret money. But I do. That's only because there's no money to hide away and make secret because you're spending it all on secret shopping. But I do have a loophole, but the loophole he knows about, so it's fine. How does that work?

I have a credit card in my name. So that means on our joint bank, like if you go to the joint app for banking, he can't see the statements for the credit card because it's in my name. But then how do you pay off that credit card? Well, it's like collective money, but I'm like, I'll just put a lump sum on there to pay off the credit card. Right. Because it's in my name. But then how do you pay off that credit card? With like collective money. But I'm like,

I'll just put a lump sum on there to pay off the credit card and he doesn't ask questions. But he still doesn't see the breakdown. He doesn't see the breakdown. But what else do you use that credit card for? Like bills and stuff. Bills and stuff.

Oh, okay. So that's a good loophole. Yeah. I see how you've structured that. Yeah. Yeah. Because it's not in his name. He's not allowed to see the statement on his app.

So not listening to the show in case you wondered. So that's my loophole. Because you could also afterpay stuff without him knowing, eh? Yes. But then there'd be some pay. Oh, yeah, yeah. Is that another loophole that we've used? Okay, stop now.

But cheating's a really strong word. Like, he's aware it's happening. Maybe not to the extent, but he knows. He just sees new stuff in the wardrobe. Yeah, yeah. Executive Ntunania, are you guilty of financial cheating? Nah, financial flirting maybe. Because that's not cheating, eh?

Nah, if he's like, how much was that, Drew? That's really nice. I'm like, oh, that's good. So he knows the purchase happened. He doesn't know how much. Yeah, I might glaze over how much it was. That's kissing your workmate. And then saying it's not cheating because they're my workmate.

Yeah, just knock off 20%. No one needs to know. It was on sale. Right, other than that, though, you don't really go out and make secret purchases without him knowing? Nah, because we had some friends who had been together for ages.

We had like a real frank combo about money, and the way that they split up their finances, I thought was genius. So we've done the same thing now that we've just bought our house together. So we spend like a third of our incomes on bills and stuff, a third of it on savings,

and then we keep our own individual last third and spend it on whatever we want individually. Oh, okay. So it means that if he goes out and buys what I consider to be dumb car stuff, I don't get to have a say in it. And new skateboard wheels. Yeah, I can spend it on what I want to spend.

So yeah, it kind of works out well. So how would that work for me when your husband doesn't work? It's certainly a challenge. But that means that you get more fun money. It's tough being the sugar mama. And he gets none. It's tough being the sugar mama, isn't it? Yeah.

ZM's Fleshborn and Megan. Play ZM's. Am I a bad person? So we've had some correspondence in. Someone's in a bit of a predicament. And we need you to help us. Are they a bad person? Maybe you've been in this situation before.

What should they do? Yes. Okay, it says, hi, guys. My boyfriend has recently let slip that he slept with his female BFF 10 years ago, and we've been together for five. So not while they were together. In a long time, too, before they were together. Yeah.

I feel super weird about it. For five years, I've tried to be cool with their relationship. And as she was there before me, I've tried to respect that dynamic. But now that I've found out that bombshell, I can't help but feel like she's always flirting with him and is still into him. Help. How, if you were in this situation, Megan,

how would you feel? I mean, you're absolutely batshit crazy, so I'd say you wouldn't like this. No, I mean, I want to say I'd be fine, but I know that I wouldn't like this. No, I mean, I want to say I'd be fine, but I know that I wouldn't be. So, I don't know.

If you feel like she's flirting with him. But maybe she's not. And I'm sure that he's like, she's not flirting with me, we're just friends. But like, I don't know. And it was so long ago. Feels so in tune to that thing. If it was meant to be something, it would have been something.

Like, it obviously didn't work out. But they're still friends. But why are they still friends? Lots of people are friends with their exes. Okay, cool. I'm not gonna come out of this. Very good. See, you could never be friends with an... I would just, I'd be fine with them being friends, but like, they're besties.

And so like, now you, that's just in your face a lot, isn't it? And especially if you feel like she's flirting. I don't know, is that something that's arisen after the fact that now she knows or whether she's always felt like she was flirting with him? Because that's the difference. Yeah. If you're making it up in your mind now that you know, or if she always felt like she was flirting.

So I guess we need to weigh in on this now and say, is she a bad person for being jealous? Yeah. I mean, you can't stop them from hanging out. Wow, there'd be some that would have a rule.

You'd put a rule in, wouldn't you? Would you? No Yes, you would I wouldn't put a rule in I'd just have to be there at all times It's been so long Like

Yeah They've been together five years I mean, you can't help the way you feel though You know And I guess it depends on the guy Like if he's given you no reason to not trust him Yeah Because it was before they were together 0800 DARS at M Give us a call depends on the guy. Like if he's given you no reason to not trust him. Yeah. Because it was before they were together.

0800 DARS at M. Give us a call. You can text in as well. 9696. Is she a bad person for being weird about this? Her boyfriend of five years being BFFs with an ex. I mean, I feel like I know how this is going to go, but I want to say she's not a bad person. But also

I want to hear from people today as well that are best friends with their exes. And nothing's happening, but you have to deal with crazy Megans all the time. But you had an intimate relationship with this person.

Yeah, but it's gone now. But she feels like she's still flirting. No, but especially guys, they're done, you know? Yeah, he may be done, but she might not be. And then when you're not around, you just don't want it. Oh, is that what you, right. Really? You reckon there could be some back burner issues here?

Yeah, for sure. All right, well, 0800DARLSATM, want to hear what you think about this. Is she a bad person? Am I a bad person? Okay, so correspondence today. Someone has messaged in and said, my boyfriend has recently let slip

that he slept with his female BFF 10 years ago. We've been together for five. Recently let slip. I feel super weird about it. For five years, I've tried to be cool with their relationship. And as she was there before me, I've tried to be cool with their relationship and as she was there before me I've tried to respect

that dynamic but now I've found out that bombshell I can't help it I feel like she's always flirting with him and is still into him Also

yeah five years into a relationship to drop that they've accidentally but then maybe it didn't matter because it was old news it wasn't an issue

They're hanging out all the time They're best friends There's this girl here all the time. They're best friends. There's this girl here all the time. And you're like, you've got a relationship with her. Yeah. But on the other side of things, when is a good time to tell your partner that?

Oh, by the way, my best friend, we sleep together. Not early. Not early on. And then it's too late. But then five years is too late. Yeah. So we want to ask this morning, what do you think? Is she a bad person?

Mike, what do you reckon? Well, I'm speaking from personal experience, because I think absolutely once you cross that line of friends and intimacy, there is no turning back, and whether you want to or not, you think differently. I appreciate that coming from a male yeah okay all right so you if this if you're in this situation you'd put a stop to it uh if i was in that situation i would weigh up whether the thoughts running through my mind and my relationship uh worth the worth the worry yeah um if it's going to cost me you know if it's going to cost me, you know, if it's going to cost me my mental health and continued anxiety and feelings of jealousy

and all the rest of it, I'd end it, move on, take any more fish in the sea. Oh, Mike, that's so sweet. I 100% agree. All right, Mike, thanks for your call. Christy, Christy, what do you think? Is she a bad person?

Well, I'm kind of hooked and biffy on this. So, personally, it's been five years. They've been together for five years. Yep. I can understand Megan's side of things, worried about the best friend still might have feelings. But if you think about it, if the guy still had feelings for the best friend,

he would have done for us ages ago. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I see your point. That's what that silent book silence was. I'm kind of 50-50 on it. Yeah. Because your mind just wanders, doesn't it? Yeah, well, because I've been the best friend that had feelings for a best friend while

he was in a relationship, but I never pursued anything because I knew he was happy in the relationship and I just let them do it. And you just still be that best friend. You don't change how you act around them. You just be there for them if they ever need it. Yeah, right. Bit of a back burner situation. You're getting claps in the producer's booth.

That's why everybody's like, no, this can't go on. Yeah. Okay. Christy, thanks for your call. Shannon, what do you think? Is she a bad person? I definitely don't think that she's a bad person

for feeling that way at all. And in fact, I think that, you know, this girl, the best friend, she's been around for a long time and obviously you've been dating the guy for five years, so you've had a lot of interaction with her.

I think if it's making you feel funny, you should just go talk to the girl and be really sincere about it and just say, hey, I only just found this out. It's actually making me feel a bit strange and see what her reaction is. And say maybe you should move cities. So what you're saying is...

Maybe not. Have a mature and open conversation With the person involved Yeah exactly Because at the end of the day Your boyfriend chose you You've been together for a really long time But I think it's important to be

Open and true about how you're feeling Otherwise you'll never get it off your chest Or it might turn sour If you let it build up for too long Yeah so mature And maybe all of their You know know, when they hang out, all of their interactions could be on Zoom just so you can monitor. Yeah.

If you can't be there in person. If you can't be there, yeah, you can just monitor the situation. Shannon, thanks for your message, your call. Some messages in. This hasn't actually gone the way I thought it would. I thought everyone was going to tell me I was a psycho, but a lot of people are very mature and level-headed about this. Or also psycho.

She's not a bad person, but she does need to chill a little bit. I don't think it's his ex. He just said they slept together 10 years ago. So they're saying it was just a one-off thing, not actually a relationship, and it was 10 years ago. Another text said, I've been in this situation before, and I was right about her. All she wanted was to get him back, even after eight years.

Honestly, I'd be the same. A woman's intuition is always right. Isn't it? She's not a bad person, but why has it taken him five years to tell her? But you can't say at the start. And then you're in too deep. Yeah. But five years is a long time.

So, yeah, a lot of people say that friends test the water. Maybe it was a drunken one-off mistake that they both regret. They're not in the relationship you are. But, yeah, a lot of people saying that she should just talk to the girl because after five years, surely they've got some kind of friendship going on as well. Yeah. How do you bring that up?

After a couple of bottles of wine. Yeah, that's going to be a level-headed conversation. We've got the Christmas tree up in the studio. How many days did we say it was until? 31 days. 31. I've just loaded up xmasclock.com. 31 days.

And starting soon, the 12 Days of Fletchmas. We do this every Christmas, and it's an absolute classic. You have to register now, though, ZM Online. And we're at the moment working on some pretty amazing prizes. We've already got Akoya on board with some goodies, Bondi Sands, JBL, a whole lot of great stuff you're doing every day. Register at ZM Online and tell us if you're on the naughty

or the nice list. Because Fletch is notoriously a Christmas Grinch. So you have to pick a winner, either from the naughty or nice list. Yeah, I'll choose each morning. And I think last year, I think it was about 50-50. So don't feel like if you're on the naughty list, that's a bad thing. I might find... You might tickle his fancy.

Yeah, I might find your naughtiness tickles my fancy. That sounded bad. Send him online to register. Vaughan's way sick today. We are unsure if Duncan Garner's given him COVID. We're going to wait for a test result to come back. And if he

has, we'll have to get one. Which will mean some days off work, which will be quite lovely. But right now, it's time for a two-person. Without our soprano. Fact of the day! Day, day, day, day! You don't feel as confident. We should really record one.

Yes, we should. Yeah, for days like when someone's away. Great idea. We're missing our trail. So we just realized moments ago that we need a fact of the day. But don't worry because I have a story ready to go. Today's fact of the day is to do with the fastest movement that humans can make. Oh.

What do you think that is? A blink? Because you know when something's like coming at your face really fast. In the blink of a second. You can like blink really quick. In the blink of an eye, that's the saying. In the blink of an eye. No, that's not that fast, is it?

Snapping your fingers? Is it a movement you have to consciously make or is it something your body just does? Okay, you have to choose one of those two because one of those is right. It's something your body does instinctively. You don't. It's not a function you do.

Well, I've said, yeah, it's a function that you do. I said one of those is right. Blinking your eye or snapping your finger. Oh, okay. Blinking your eye or snapping your finger. Oh, okay. Blinking your eye. Blinking. Okay, so blinking your eye is not the fastest movement that the human body can make. It's not blinking.

It is snapping your fingers. Scientists at Georgia Tech reveal it takes seven milliseconds to snap your fingers. And that is how many times quicker than blinking? What do you think? Three times. 20 times quicker than a blink of an eye. And the secret's down to friction between the thumb and the third finger. Oh, the pressure.

Wait. I use my... Oh, is that the second finger or the... No, that's the second, the third, because the thumb. If that was the second... Oh, no, it's the third from the left. I was going from the right. Are they counting the thumb?

No, they're going from the left. Wait, which finger do you flick with? One, two, three. I go with that one. You flick with your middle finger, right? And your thumb. That's your middle finger flinching. I don't know.

But do you count the thumb? One, two, three. Or is that thumb, two, three? Thumb, one, two. So you click your finger with your thumb and flip the bird finger. Middle finger. Well, experiments showed a rubber thimble produces too much friction and a lubricated glove too little.

But the skin is apparently just right. Produces enough resistance and compression to create the perfect snap. Oh, that was a good one. But yeah, you'd think blinking would be faster, right? Yeah. But it's not. It's 20 times quicker to snap your finger. And scientists have proven it.

And that is today's fact of the day that the human snapping your fingers seven milliseconds, 20 times quicker than a blink of the eye. Fact of the day, day, day, Tay, Tay. ZDM's Fletch, Ronan Megan. We would love to know right now if you had someone tag along on your honeymoon. So it's you, your partner, and there was someone else. Maybe multiple other people. I just remembered one of my, I think one of the, it wasn't everybody's cup of tea,

but one of my favourite TV shows this year, White Lotus. Yeah. And that happens on White Lotus. The mum comes along. Yeah, it's very White Lotus. The wife's just like, what are you doing here? Well, this has happened. Paris Hilton obviously got married.

She had a multi-day extravaganza. And her family have joined. So they went to Bora Bora and it wasn't just her parents that tagged along. There was her brothers, her sister-in-law, her niece and her parents. So there was a whole entourage of her family. That's a family holiday.

Although, was it a destination wedding? Is that where they got married? No. Oh. Because that would be the only, like if you had a Rarotongan or a Fijian wedding. Yeah. Everyone travels, so they're there. But then you say to everyone, you must leave afterwards,

because then we're going to have a honeymoon. Yeah, and then you go somewhere else to do your honeymoon on the island. Yeah, no, she took them all to Bora Bora and it doesn't say whether he had any family. It sounds like it was just the Hiltons. Is this like a rich people thing? Because are they, is she bringing them along to like

carry on paying for things? But then she's got money. But she's Paris Hilton. She doesn't need her family to pay for anything. Yeah, very weird. And so like they're all hanging out and stuff. And I don't know what her husband thinks of that. He'd be like, oh, does my mother-in-law have to come along?

You want to have your own time. Yeah. At least you're going to do another honeymoon afterwards. So, yeah, no, this is part of their honeymoon world tour. It's just kind of started in Bora Bora. So maybe they're just joining them for the first leg of the tour. Right. Well, we want to ask a question. Has anybody crashed your honeymoon?

Yeah. Maybe it was the whole family. But then maybe people just like that's, maybe people like that, being with their family on honeymoon. Are we the weirdos? I don't know. Are we? It seems like something intimate you do with just your partner.

Silly me. Or like the husband or wife invites along their best friend, and then all of a sudden it's like an awkward kind of third wheel honeymoon. Would that have happened? Like I'm not opposed to like friendship holidays. If the couple liked this person or friend. Yeah. You'd invite a couple maybe, but you wouldn't invite one random friend. That's very third world.

Okay, well, 0800 DARS at M, like Paris Hilton's honeymoon where the whole family's tagging along. Has somebody ever crashed your honeymoon or did you take someone on honeymoon with you? Maybe you had no problem with this. Maybe we're the weird ones here. So Paris Hilton's on honeymoon.

And she's taken her whole family purposefully. She meant for them to be there. Now, is she filming a TV show? Yeah. So it could be. But then why would the, we don't want to see the parents on that TV show. Weird.

But it's going to be a world tour, so maybe it's just for the start. We want to know who joined you on your honeymoon. Yeah. Whether or not it was by invitation or not, anonymous, who was on your honeymoon? It wasn't me, but two of my friends got married and they invited their friends to come on their honeymoon with them

because the wife thought that it would be boring just her and her husband. She's marrying this man. Are they still married? Yeah, they are. It's like, well, hon, you're going to spend your whole life just with that one. I don't want to go on Honeymoon with my husband. It's very boring.

Wow. Did he know she said that? Yeah, yeah. He just laughed. Wow. Well, they're still together. I don't know. It works, doesn't it?

We would love to know when you took someone on your honeymoon or whether they just turned up or not. Paris Hilton's family is with her on honeymoon. Like a whole lot of them are there and they seem happy about it. Yeah, and I mean, I would have thought this was a no-go. Yeah, that's your first holiday intimate time together. It's where you're meant to, you know, make the baby, isn't it? Sure.

Well, we think it's weird, but it happens a lot. It does happen a lot. It does. I mean, I guess a lot of people just want a holiday with their friends. The more the merrier kind of vibe. Hayley, who was on your honeymoon? I had my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law. Okay.

Was that your choice and were you happy about it? Yes, we actually asked them to come. So we had a five-month-old daughter at the time. Free babysitters. Pretty much. And when we wanted her, we just called them up and they were at a different hotel from us and they would just bring her by or we'd meet them when we wanted her, we just called them up and they were at a different hotel from us and they would just bring her by or

we'd meet them when we'd had enough of her and drop her off and have some you know, newlywed time. That's actually very smart, isn't it? That's quite genius. Especially given that they're at another hotel. Yes. Yeah, and it was only about two hours away from where they lived so it wasn't far. Right, okay.

And did they end up paying for anything either? Oh, they just paid for themselves for their own little getaway with her, which was great. Okay. Amazing. Very smart. Hayley, brilliant. Thank you. Cheyenne, who was on your honeymoon?

So, me and my husband got married at 20. Yep. And he was 22. And we thought, since we've never been out of the country, because we're going to the Gold Coast, why not take my best friend and her partner? Okay, and at the time you didn't think that was weird or? Well, okay, so the thing is

the boyfriend kind of approached us at our wedding and said, I've got this plan to propose to my, you know, to Kayla there. Yeah. And so we thought, why not make it a big extravagant thing and take them

to the Gold Coast? Okay. So that he can propose to his partner on your honeymoon with you there. So we kind of set it up so it was kind of them

separately. Right. But we kind of helped the planning of it. Right. And being a holiday, it was a secret obviously the whole time.

And my husband had to have the ring in his suitcase the whole time and I've never seen someone have so much anxiety And so you still got your own time though to honeymoon? Yes, yes, so we did Oh okay, well that's fun then

Yeah, we went for a total of 10 days so we had a plenty amount of time to go and do our separate things, did things together. Remember theme parks and just traveling? I know. When I look at the photos. I'd just be stoked to go on someone else's honeymoon now.

Yeah. That's saying something. Cheyenne, thanks for your call. Chrissy, you had a whole entourage at your honeymoon. Yes, yes, I did. We had our honeymoon in Bali. We got married

in Perth and so we had the wedding and all flew to Bali the following day a bit shabby. So there was myself and my husband, our daughter, my brother and sister-in-law and their daughter and my mum. Jeez.

So we all had 10 days in Bali and it was great, you know, like my husband and I had been together six years at that stage. So, you know, the romance had sort of dwindled slightly by then. Yeah, and so you're just the more the merrier, let's all go to Bali. Yes, yes. And look, we lost my mum three years ago and that was our last big family holiday all together. So it's actually... Really special.

It was a really, yeah, it was really good. So, I mean mean i'd kill to have a holiday just my husband and i now now the kids are older just even just to leave yeah go anywhere anywhere ah brilliant yeah uh amazing chrissy thanks for sharing uh some more messages in so it's really split between people being invited and actually not invited. So my honeymoon was in the south of France, this person says. It was interrupted by my ex-brother-in-law. He showed up with his girlfriend's

twin sister and they were definitely not just friends. It made the honeymoon sordid and gross. You're in the south of France. How do you happen upon... Yeah. My mother-in-law and father-in-law crashed the first destination of our honeymoon. The mother-in-law complained to him

we didn't hang out with her enough. You're on your honeymoon. I got married in Jamaica and I took my mother-in-law. It was a couple's resort so she had to take a random partner she wasn't really into to be able to stay there.

My sister-in-law had her parents, her in-laws, her sister-in-law, brother-in-law and sister came on the honeymoon. But I don't think it was her choice. Mathematically, the chance of all of them being bearable are very slim. Slim to none. Yeah.

I know a groom I know had his two brothers, their partners, dad and his partner stepsister and partner uncle and wife and cousin at his honeymoon destination the bride wasn't as relaxed as she could have been

understatement yeah
