ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.
Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast.
It's thanks to McCafe, barista made coffee available from drive-thru
and McDelivery at level 3 and also dine-in at level 2.
And an exciting day for me because my AliExpress stuff has turned up.
What have you got?
Two packages.
I mean, is there a date on this?
Every time I get something on AliExpress
it's always a surprise.
Because you forgot you ordered it. Because I forgot I ordered it.
And I give up. I'm like, well that'll
surprise me in two or three months.
And it is here.
Two packages.
Two packages. So, first
package.
It's a wiggly package. It's a
wiggly fish. It's a wiggly fish
from Major Murray Fluffington. Two wiggly
fishes. Oh, no batteries. So this is
a non-wiggly fish. Okay. And then
this is a wiggly fish, but you need a USB
charger. Oh, right. That's good, though.
Before it flaps. Yeah. Because the last one
broke after like three days, but
he still loves it. It's one of his favourite toys.
Right. He'll just... So you're like, I'll get another wiggly one. Yeah. He picks it up in his mouth and he'll bring it it's one of his favorite toys right he'll just
i'll get another one he picks it up in his mouth and he'll bring it to me like he's caught a fish
i'm like i'm proud of you i'm proud of you baby well you know what they say i'm gonna give a cat
a fish feed him for a day teach a cat to fish feed him for a yeah i think you're about to say
um you know what they say you're a crazy cat lady and you'll be single forever. That. Yes. I mean, that went without saying.
Also, while I was on AliExpress, I got earplugs.
That's my other, silicon earplugs.
Because I live in the city, it gets a bit noisy sometimes.
Oh, okay, gotcha.
I started, like, on the weekends ages ago, I just put some earplugs in because I was like,
and I cannot sleep, even in hotels if I go away, always wear earplugs now.
And it's the most, you have the most peaceful sleep you've ever had in your life.
I do my day naps now with earplugs and an eye mask.
But do you use the foam ones?
Yes.
Yeah, horrible.
Oh, no, I love them.
No, they're rubbish.
I love them.
I love them.
I roll them up and I fall out.
I stick them in until I can feel it hit the eardrum.
These are like silicon.
And you go.
Silicon ones are like Blu-Tack,
but like not,
silicon.
And you can wear them for swimming as well.
And they just seal your ear,
and you just go to sleep.
See,
I'm the opposite.
I sleep with very loud white noise,
and that's like,
ah.
Yeah,
I die,
I can't,
what if,
I don't know how people sleep with white noise.
What if there's a fire alarm?
Um,
well,
I die.
Wow.
No,
you can,
so,
no,
so my alarm would always wake me up still.
Right.
But it just dulls the sound enough that you just get the best sleep.
So I ordered like 4,000 pairs.
Oh, my God.
Of course you did.
Aren't they meant to last forever?
No, they last maybe two weeks because then they fall out and they get fluff on them.
So they don't stick in your ear as well.
Gotcha.
Is that good for the environment?
I couldn't care less, Megan.
I'm not even going to pretend to care.
I get a good night's sleep and that's what matters.
Play ZDM's First Warner Megan.
God, I hate David Seymour.
Great start to the show.
Strong start to the show.
I mean, there's not a lot of love lost here, but I wouldn't have started the show like that.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show.
Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.
David Seymour's popularity rising in the latest coma brunty poll.
One news.
Yeah.
But still only one in ten people.
Like ten percent's an insane minority.
Did you see him play basketball on the news that time?
Have you seen him do anything?
It's like the jumped-up nerdy kid with no sort of, like,
grasp on social etiquette running for head boy at school.
Ten percent of people are like, yeah, that sounds fun.
Not knowing what they will be unleashing on the world.
Good start to the show.
Yeah, strong start.
Bit of political banter.
I don't know if that counts as banter, just be like, God, I hate you.
Yeah, you're right.
The top six coming up, and TVNZ have started advertising a new show,
and for applicants for this new show, it's a dating show on an island.
What could it be?
Why haven't they done one of these before?
Sounds intriguing.
Do you think, because if it was another Heartbreak Island, they'd just say, right?
Surely.
They'd just say, all right, Heartbreak Island's coming. Who wants to be on it?
Or maybe the very reason they didn't give all the details was so people would speculate
and thus talk about it, spreading awareness of it, such as we are doing right now.
Do you think they could be doing like actual Love Island though?
Like a New Zealand Love Island?
I don't know.
Only if they've got the drink bottles.
You can't do it without the drink bottles.
They still have the drink bottles?
You've got to be in for the merch.
But you also can't do it without the villa.
Is it Mallorca?
We've got villas.
Mallorca?
Mallorca?
Nah, we've got villas.
Where would they do it?
They'd do it on Waiheke, wouldn't they?
Or something.
Or Carpetsie.
Yeah.
Because then you've got the bird song, don't you?
What? I don't you? What?
I don't know if there's a villa on there, but we could bung something up.
Yeah, bung something.
It's all a set, isn't it, anyway?
Yeah.
Okay.
Something temporary.
Top six dealing with that.
Yes, the top six things this new TVNZ dating show on an island could be.
All right, next on the show, good news.
If you've ever got to an airport and thought, oh, there's no Uber, great.
Got to pay extra for a taxi.
Because Uber have announced some new locations.
Oh.
I'll tell you next.
ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan.
Well, this news story, Uber arrives at more New Zealand airports.
Okay.
A little misleading because up until now, Uber has been in these cities,
but they just couldn't like pick you up.
Go to the airport.
Yeah, they couldn't like pick you up right there.
It always feels so sneaky because you have to like meet you out
a little bit further from the airport.
Or in Wellington, they're like walk to the very edge of the airport grounds
and then we'll pick you up there.
I'll be the silver Prius.
Yep.
Not the white Prius.
It depends on the light.
We both look very similar.
Christchurch Airport's the same.
It's like, yep, keep going.
A little bit more.
Yeah.
No, right at the back.
And I'll be the white Prius.
Yeah.
And it's because Auckland Airport does it as well.
You have to walk behind the car park building.
Yeah.
Because they're not allowed to pull right up.
No, because that's the thing.
I don't know if most people don't know this,
but the taxi companies get pinged a heap from airports.
And that's how they make heaps of their money.
It's that $6 or $7 surcharge that they tack onto your taxi fee.
So that's why they hate Uber.
But Uber is arriving and will have now agreements
with airports in Queenstown, Palmerston North,
New Plymouth and Nelson.
Okay.
Because my friend James and I,
when we went to Queenstown last time,
we got an Uber in Queenstown
and we didn't know that they weren't allowed to pick you up.
And the guy was like, oh, yeah, keep walking.
And we had to walk like out of the airport, down the road, around the corner.
He's like, oh, you're sorry, I can't pick you up there.
I'm like, this is stupid.
He didn't tell you where, he's just like, keep walking, keep walking.
Well, we could see him on the map and I was just like, had this big suitcase.
I was like, what is going on here?
Are we getting murdered?
You should have called a taxi to the Uber.
I think they have a minimum
spend.
How much?
Just catch a taxi and then
dive out at the entrance.
At the entrance.
Some of them I think aren't
right right outside but they have a designated
area. Okay.
Well that's cool.
Well good to know. For when I go to the airport again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ha, ha, ha.
Hee, hee, hee.
14 minutes past six.
The top six is coming up, but we want to talk about this trial
that's going to be happening, self-isolation.
That's right.
People are going to be trusted to isolate outside of MIQ facilities.
Oh, boy, oh, boy.
Remember last time we trusted people?
Never again.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.
Celebrity Treasure Island is back on TVNZ2 tonight at 7.30.
It's every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
And we've got a chance for you to win $1,000 cash each week.
All you've got to do
is spot the keyword
that pops up,
the ZM keyword
and text that to 9696
to be able to win
that $1,000 cash.
I just returned
from the microwave.
I had to microwave my coffee.
I made a coffee
but the hot water
out of the hot water tap
wasn't working
so it made me a cold one
so these two boomers
were like,
microwave it
and I said,
that sounds disgusting so I did. Is that above microwaving a tea or a coffee? cold one. So these two boomers were like, microwave it. And I said, that sounds disgusting.
So I did.
Is that above microwaving a tea or a coffee?
Oh, God.
That's like when mum's like, Ian, you've forgotten your coffee.
And he's like, oh, shit, it's gotten cold.
Has it?
We're just chucking the microwave, Christine.
How long for?
How long do you reckon?
Is it delicious?
Why does it taste different?
Why?
Because it's been nuclearized.? Because it's been
nuclearised
Do you know that microwave over there has
settings for mug cake?
Does it? Yeah it's got a mug cake button
It's always the settings they have
on microwaves, there's never anything I'm going to use
Crack me up
Quinoa? It's got a quinoa setting?
Yeah
Am I saying that right? Yeah, quinoa
Okay, good. It's got a quinoa setting? Yeah. Am I saying that right? Yeah, quinoa.
Okay, good.
It's got all the settings.
Well, from that, even though radio consultants always say focus on one idea or voice break,
people are incapable of processing more than one train of thought.
Oh, listener, I hope you can do this.
So take a break.
Hey, listener.
We are going to trial.
No, you've just lost so many people.
I know.
They were like, no, is he still talking about microwaves?
They still think you're talking about microwaving things.
Microwaving things?
There is going to be a trial for RSE workers.
Those are people that pick fruit.
Okay.
And do other jobs from Pacific Islands of self-isolation.
Yeah, right.
Limited at the early stages to 150 to see how it goes.
But most of all, apart from Fiji, are COVID-free.
Am I right in saying that?
Yeah.
What is Vanuatu?
I haven't heard much about Vanuatu.
We've never been.
You've been, haven't you?
Yes.
Yeah, it was a post.
We went, famously, Smiths go on holidays to areas that have just suffered some sort of natural disaster.
Yeah, because you get it cheap.
Yeah, we went post-cycline.
Right.
There was a lot of roading issues.
It wasn't as bad as that time you went to Thailand after the tsunami.
No, that was great.
Yeah.
I can't speak highly enough of it.
It's a beautiful country.
Going after a natural disaster.
Well, and it's good because everybody's like, you're back.
Right.
You've got to support them, don't you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
I feel like a bit like a champ.
Yeah, you get that three star a bit cheaper too, don't you?
You do.
You do.
You might get a breakfast buffet chucked in for absolutely nothing.
Right.
But just getting back there.
So how long before somebody ruins the self-isolation
and they catch up with someone they know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, that's all a really good question.
It's going to be isolation at the place where they will be working.
Oh, I reckon that's all good.
Yeah, for two weeks only socialising within
and having to COVID test.
Right, all the time Yeah
Oh, easy
Yeah
But no leaving the place
Right
Yeah
Because you'd imagine that's how life's going to be
When we start to travel next year, right?
If we do
You'll come home and you'll have a period of isolation
Yep
Yeah
So if you get a week off work
Yeah
And you go to Australia
You'd come back
And you stay in your house for two
weeks. That's the thing. The period of
isolation, how long is it going to be?
It might only be like, what, five days if you're
double vaxxed? Perhaps.
Well, I don't know. That's got to be something that's got to be thought
about, but yeah.
Interesting. Very interesting.
From the vulnerable ZM Think Tank,
this is the
Top Six. Hello there.
TVNZ
have said they're looking
for people who are looking for love.
So they're looking and you're looking.
They're looking for you. You're looking for love.
And they've got an island.
And they've got an island.
So it's led to a lot of people speculating.
Oh, there's been speculation. Could we be doing our very
own Love Island?
New Zealand version?
Or is it just that Heartbreak Island
and they're not telling us?
I'm going to message Maddie McLean.
Where did they do Heartbreak Island?
Was it in Fiji?
Was it Fiji?
Yeah, it was Fiji.
Because didn't they go to that Cloud 9?
Yeah.
You know Cloud 9?
People would hire a jet ski for a day and go to Cloud 9 in Fiji,
and they'd jump off the top.
Yeah.
What did they?
Gosh, they were on Cloud 9.
They were.
And now all these things seem like a distant memory.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, Fiji.
Okay, so the top six shows that TVNZ could be doing on an island.
Number six on the list is there's a difference between love and having sex with someone on an island.
That's what my mum would call it.
That's all of them.
That could apply to all of them.
There's a difference between being in love with someone and just having sex with them.
Did you get that?
Was that ever an avenue of the chat for you?
Absolutely not.
Oh, really?
I've never sat down and chatted to either of my parents
about that kind of stuff.
Oh, no, neither.
Number five on the list
Of the top six shows
That TVNZ could be doing
On an island
Where love's associated
It's called
The Copyright Dodge
Island of Love
I found the photos of us
On the hovercraft
Oh cool cool cool cool
Yeah cool cool cool
Number
That's cool hovercraft
Number four on the list Of the top six things The new TVNZ dating show on an island could be called.
Love on an island.
Of love.
You've got to get love in there.
You've got to get your geographical location in there.
Number three on the list of the top six things that TVNZ's new daddy show on an island could be,
Lusty Isle.
And it's set in the oldie times.
They make you dress up in oldie times clothes.
And you've been taken on like a ship to colonize the island.
Yes.
Right.
Welcome to Lusty Isle, where the rum doth flow and there is no such thing as condoms yet.
Unless you want to use the innards of a sheep.
No thanks.
No, particularly no.
Number two on the list of the top six things
that TBNZ's new dating show on an island could be,
given that we're fairly limited
with the islands we have to choose from,
why hack your wives?
Oh yeah, okay.
You send a man out there and he gets to pick his
why hack your wives. Or wife, I don't know.
Could be for the polygamists.
Okay.
White hacky wives.
And number one on the list of the top six things that TVNZ's new dating show on an island could be,
Celebrity Treasure Island sex tapes.
It's where we get a bunch of horned up celebrities out there and we just wait until the inevitable happens.
Sex.
And then we've got it on film, and then we blackmail them.
I can't see a problem.
To do more of our TV shows.
Bingo.
Yeah, it's a good idea, that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's how a lot of TV shows got made in the year 2000.
I can't tell you that much.
Don't tell me Julie Christie didn't have some sex tapes on file.
You know what I'm saying?
That is today's top six.
ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Drinking. You know what I'm saying? That is today's top six.
Drinking.
Is it better to not drink all week so you can get plastered at the weekend or is it better to moderately drink through the week?
I would say, is that a question you're asking?
Well, that is the study has looked into this.
Right.
Surely it's better to do the moderation.
The moderation.
Like everything in life.
Well, I think the answer will be don't drink at all.
Yeah, but that's not a fun answer.
I know it's not a fun answer, but it is the answer, isn't it?
Yeah.
So when you moderately drink, your body never gets a break from metabolizing alcohol.
But when you smash it for two or three days in a row at the end of the week
your body undergoes more extreme stresses it's like people who are like fiends and then they're
like i'm gonna detox and they drink nothing but celery soup for like three weeks yeah and then
at the end of it they're like well i feel terrible and now i'm back to the life i was before um and
i will quickly gain back the 4kgs i've lost. And that's no good either. Yeah.
Right?
So you shouldn't pile it on at the weekend.
The less you drink, the lower your risk of harm
and the fact that if you do spread it out through the week,
a wine a night,
and I assume that means glass, not bottle,
but you don't want it going vinegary.
That's my thing.
Once it's open, that thing better be finished. I can't put that back in the cupboard, want it going vinegary That's my thing Once it's open That thing better be finished
I can't put that back in the cupboard
That much of vinegary
And God you know me
I'm a Kylie McGonaghy
You don't want those going vinegary
Oh God
Once that hits the lips
It's all over
It's all over
I'll just finish it straight from the bottle
Probably the last glass
Healthy women should have No more than 10 standard drinks a week.
And healthy men no more than 15.
Healthy million.
A maximum of four in one day.
How come you get more?
Because of our dicks.
This is bullshit.
Of course you get more.
You get more calories.
Because of the balls.
You get more bloody drinks.
Yeah.
More pay.
More wages.
Yeah, but we die sooner.
We die sooner.
Yeah.
That's because of your extra drinks.
And let's not forget World War I and II, we had to go.
You didn't.
I would have if I'd been born then.
One of my past lives, maybe I did.
You're not dying out on other people's sacrifices.
Why not?
Absolutely we can.
Why not?
Stick to this rule of maximum of four in one day, five for men.
Who's drunk?
And drop the risk of dying from alcohol-related disease or injury.
What were you going to say?
Who's drinking for or who's only drinking for?
No, who's drinking for a day?
For?
Yeah.
And every day I get to the end of the day, I'm like, no, no, no, no.
You should drink a liter of water.
So then I drink a liter of water and I'm like, God, I've done well.
I deserve a reward.
And I choose my reward.
Well, at the moment, gin.
That's crazy.
Okay.
I think I had four on Friday night and I was like,
oh, whatever it does.
Really?
Yeah.
That's why.
Those are rookie numbers.
You've got to pump up that fitness.
You know, that's just a short job.
Right.
Yeah, you've got to get those.
Well, moderation.
Is key.
Moderation key there in that study.
Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughn and Megan.
The Science of Scare Project have done a little,
a fun way study that has compared
some of the scariest movies of all time.
So the way they did it,
they got people with the resting heart rate,
they tested their resting heart rate,
and then they measured their average movie heart rate,
the highest spike during the movie,
and the overall difference.
And this is how they measured
the scariest. Okay, so this is actually
scientific. They didn't just say to people
at the end of it, did you like that?
So they invited 250 people
to watch 40 of the
scariest horror movies. Wow.
They spaced it out.
That would take a long time, right? That's a marathon
effort. Scared the crap out of me.
So I would do with a top 20.
Also, would you get like scare fatigue?
You're like 38, maybe you're like, ah, nothing scares me anymore.
Or did they have to watch all 40 or were they just watching randomly?
Randomly a couple.
No, because they'd need a comparison.
They'd need to compare, yeah.
They'd need to compare.
Who's got the time to?
I must have at least been watching 10, right?
But if you did the study over a year.
Yeah.
There's still like nearly one a week.
No way.
Right.
Okay.
I think I've watched maybe five.
I can't remember one of them I might have blacked out,
but I've watched definitely four.
My problem with them is the ending of scary movies is never great.
Satisfactory.
Yeah.
You know?
Like the best ones leave it open so that you, you know,
the horror, the unknown, you're like, what happened there?
And then your mind can run wild, but sometimes they fall well short of.
Yeah.
I just find they're always budget.
Yeah, or the twist of the angel.
Yeah.
And they can't afford good actors.
The acting's terrible most of the time.
Yeah, it's real terrible.
It's not skewy at all.
But then what was the Quiet Place?
Fantastic.
But I would call that more of a thriller than a horror.
A thriller suspense, isn't it?
Yeah. That wouldn't count, would it?
Well, it's on there.
Is it?
Okay.
A Quiet Place 1 and 2 is on there.
Okay.
Which, that accounts for two out of the four movies
that I've seen off this list.
Okay.
Those are great movies.
They're good movies.
So good.
So, number 20, The Conjuring, The Devil Made Me Do It.
Oh, yeah, that's a series.
Okay.
This religious stuff is often spooky.
One of the other movies that I saw that gave me nightmares
and terrified me for ages, It, the new version.
Oh, yeah. It's December 19th. It, the 20th, the new version. Oh, yeah.
It's number 19.
And not as scary as the original.
The scariest thing about the original
was how long it was.
It was so long.
If it was ever on TV,
it was over two nights
because that's how bloody long it was.
The 70s version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre
is number 18.
Okay.
Halloween, the 70s version.
Yeah.
Number 16, A Nightmare on Elm Street
from 1984. Yeah, yeah. The version. Yeah. Number 16, A Nightmare on Elm Street from 1984.
Yeah.
The Ring.
Yep.
Yep.
Is that coming out of the TV?
Yeah, watch the videos.
I've seen that one.
You've got seven days.
Well, I mean, when I say I've seen it, I've seen bits of it and the rest of it, I close my eyes.
But that was one of them, 15.
She was down a well.
The Ring was her looking out of the
well. Is that what it was?
Okay. A Quiet Place
number one is number 14 on there.
The thing is with The Quiet Place is
it's so jumpy.
So people's heart rate
spiked up to 120, which
is one of the more higher
peaks. The most
beautiful thing about that movie
is how little talking there is.
I know.
There was so much more talking in the sequel.
And trying to eat snacks in that movie,
you're like...
That's never a problem.
Snacks in a movie are never a problem for me
because they're gone by the ads.
Yeah, yeah.
You've got to smash the chop chop.
Yeah, yeah.
There's like 15 minutes of trailers.
I know.
Yeah.
Hush is number 13.
I have no idea what that movie is.
Okay.
The Descent, 12.
That was where they went.
Was that a cave or the underwater one?
No, thanks.
The Babadook is 11.
Okay.
The Conjuring, number two, is number 10.
So we're getting into the top 10 of the scariest
or the jumpiest movies of all time.
Paranormal Activity is nine.
A Quiet Place part two.
Paranormal Activity was pretty bloody good
because it only cost them like $15,000 to make
and it made millions and launched this huge franchise.
A Quiet Place two is at number eight.
The sequel is scarier than the first.
Still have to see that.
It's pretty good.
Pretty bloody good.
So good. Would you say the second one's better? Nah. Oh. I than the first. Still have to see that. It's pretty good. Yeah, pretty bloody good. So good.
Would you say the second one's better?
Nah.
Oh.
I like the first one better.
Nah, I like the second one better.
The second one's cool for the story and filling out the universe of the movie, but I love
Number seven is It Follows.
Six is Terrified.
Number five is one that we heard a lot about recently, Hereditary.
That's that one with Toni Collette, right?
Oh, yeah.
What's the premise of it?
Well, her name's Muriel and it's her wedding.
It's really unpleasant.
When the matriarch of the Graham family passes away,
her daughter and grandchildren begin to unravel cryptic
and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry,
trying to outrun the sinister fate they've inherited.
Ooh. Okay.
The Conjuring is number four, and this is
where we get up into the high heart rates.
The Conjuring has one of the
highest. 132
beats per minute is the spike.
Wow. The highest
spike is Insidious.
Number three, 133 beats per minute.
What was Insidious?
I remember hearing about it.
Sinister is number two, 130 beats per minute.
And the number one scary movie of all time, it's been crowned,
is very fitting for right now, Host.
Oh, okay.
Which Host?
Oh, it just says Host. Because there's been three films called Host. Oh, okay. Which Host? Oh, it just says Host.
Because there's been three films called Host.
Really?
So this one is 2020.
Okay.
And it's about everyone's on Zoom calls
and then they do a seance.
So apparently you see the whole movie
like you're watching a computer screen.
They literally filmed it on Zoom.
Yeah.
During the start of the pandemic.
Right.
So they do a seance on Zoom and then it During the start of the pandemic. Right. So they do a seance on
Zoom and then it's
slowly everyone kind of like. Oh, that's it.
I'm not Zooming again. No, I
can't make the staff meeting. Maybe that's why it's so scary for
everyone. Yeah, because Zoom is horrifying enough.
It's got 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Does it? 100%.
100% host.
Yeah, six friends accidentally invite the attendance
attendance.
Hold on
We've just got the demon
In the breakout room guys
Now is everybody ready
Because I'm going to
Invite them in
Dude
Oh my gosh
What's your background
Hawaii
Yeah they
Accidentally invite
The attention of a
Demonic presence
During an online seance
And begin noticing Strange occurrences in their homes.
Ooh.
No.
No.
You could watch that.
I don't need Zoom to be ruined for me.
No.
ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan.
I was just looking up some bird calls.
Okay.
Not those relaxing bird calls.
Not like the ruru mopuk in the middle of the night.
Oh, beautiful.
When you hear that in the middle of the night. Oh, beautiful when you hear that.
What a beautiful sound, but never look it in the eyes.
Because it'll peck them out in their night.
We've got, in our paddock,
we've got some birds nesting at the moment.
These are the dinosaurs I was referring to. Yes, I
tricked you all. There's not an actual dinosaur in my
paddock. It's a bird.
Tricked you! But is it from the dinosaur
days? No, it's what dinosaurs
turned into. They turned into birds.
The dinosaurs that survived the great meteor
strike of a bajillion
BC.
1842. Yeah. And when you see
chickens run, it looks like those ones
that run at the start of Jurassic Park.
That's all the proof I need.
The only evidence I need.
We've got, in our padpaca nesting at the moment.
My dad, growing up, we always called these barker birds.
Right.
But the official name is the masked lapwing,
otherwise known as the plover.
No, I saw it.
The masked lapwing.
You put a video on your Instagram story last night.
They were dive bombing you.
They're crazy bastards.
They're always loud.
The sound was working just before, and
now it won't. Bloody scientists can't get
their MP3s sorted.
Hold on, we'll see if this works now that I've refreshed the page.
Nah.
Good one, science.
God, how can I trust the vaccine if they
can't even upload an MP3?
Can you not, please?
I regret the minute I came out of my mouth, I shouldn't have said that.
Oh, there you go.
I thought those were oyster catchers.
Oh, that's annoying, isn't it?
Same family.
Well done, you.
Well done, you.
Well, that's the same family.
So you can get vaccinated now because the scientists worked out the M3 fuel.
Everybody, we can trust science again.
Let's get them.
So they've, what, moved in for spring because it's mating season?
Yeah.
Is that the plan?
They always lay in the middle of paddocks.
They're the kind of birds.
On the ground?
Yeah, yeah.
They just make like this little nest.
The nest isn't even like a tree.
No, no, no, no.
Are they stupid?
Like they're dotterels and stuff.
You know how they're like, please stay out of the sand dunes.
Dot trolls nesting.
Same fam.
Oh, right.
They're a brown nester.
Yeah, right.
What do you think?
Kiwis climbing a tree to lay their eggs?
Yeah, but the sand dunes are the fastest way from the car park to the beach.
Well, just blindly hoon through them then.
Who cares about the native birds?
Real white man arrogance of a bird just to put your nest on the ground.
And then listen to how loud the squawk
it was. This is the white man
of the bird kingdom. Listen to me, listen
to me. Oh, I'm going to park myself right in the
middle of this lawn. Stay away!
My land! My land!
Well, no wonder they were dive bombing you.
You were walking through their nests. So they've got two
little eggs in there and we've been watching
them. And I want to know, I need to
let my cows into that part of the paddock
but I can't let them in there
where the eggs are in there.
They might stand on them.
See, what a heart.
He's got a,
does he have a heart?
It's in there somewhere.
I felt like you were just saying
what we wanted to hear.
No,
because otherwise
I just sort of,
that's what,
and so whenever we put up
things about them,
people are like,
stomp on the eggs.
What?
Get rid of them.
Get rid of them.
Those birds are a pain in the ass.
You can't do that.
Oh, my God.
I have a heart too.
I believe they weren't like an introduced species.
They made their own way here.
Okay.
What is that called?
Endemic?
Yeah.
Don't agree with me if I'm wrong.
No, it sounds right.
It sounds right.
It's not an epidemic.
It's endemic.
Right.
Species?
Is that what it's called?
When they made their own way here, they weren't introduced.
Because they serve absolutely no purpose to introduce.
Yeah.
Mind you, neither did possums.
Oh, no, those were for fur.
They were going to introduce a roaring fur trade.
That was a terrible decision.
Yeah.
And then the rabbits, they were like, oh, we'll be able to eat these.
And then it got out of hand, and they're like, you know what eats them?
We'll be able to send down the whole ferrets and stoats.
I can't see any bad point about those.
They won't eat the birds.
They've got so many rabbits to eat.
Why would they?
Because the kiwi's slower and more delicious looking?
Fair point, but it's too late.
I've let my ferrets go.
So this plover in the paddock,
die bomb, very aggressive.
And somebody said,
you want to watch them?
They've got poisonous spikes on their wings.
What?
And I was like,
did you see how close they were to you yesterday?
Big part.
And so I googled it, and they do have spikes on their wings.
Halfway down their wing, they've got this aggressive spike that comes out.
Oh, my God.
Now, apparently...
They are a dinosaur.
They are.
They're the Velociraptor of the skies.
They've got these hooks.
Oh, my God, they do.
Yeah.
And they're yellow. But they're not poisonous. Oh my God, they do. Yeah. And they're yellow.
But they're not poisonous.
Oh, right.
I'm just going to poke your eye out.
They're absolutely not poisonous.
Yeah, what would they get?
Your face or something?
Or your arm?
Well, apparently the spikes are more
if there's a ground predator coming for their nests,
they'll use the spikes.
Oh, okay.
That's you.
Yeah, but...
You're a massive predator.
Huge predator.
Bigger than an apex predator.
I'm the great white shark of that paddock, baby.
Nothing in there unless the cow turns on me,
then I guess it's the great white shark of the paddock.
Yeah.
But, yeah, people are like, oh, the poisonous wingtips.
It's like, you're all talking rubbish.
But they do have, like, these wingtips, but they're not poisonous.
I've done the...
I've looked it up.
Oh, he's done his research.
I've done my online research.
No, I just read what the scientists wrote.
And they're dealing with it because people freak out and kill them
because they think they've got poisonous spikes
and they don't want them hitting anything.
But they're not poisonous.
They do have spikes, however.
But also a bird dive-bombing you.
I haven't been dive-bombed by a magpie.
Heaps of people are like, are these magpies?
I'm like, no, these are plovers.
And they're like, oh, I hate magpies.
I've been for a couple of runs lately. There's these magpies in trees'm like, no, these are plovers. And they're like, oh, I hate magpies. I've been for a couple of runs lately.
There's these magpies in trees.
They don't dive on me.
And I'm insulted.
No, you're not hot enough.
I know.
You're not sparkly enough.
You're not sparkly enough.
Is that what it is?
Because that's what somebody said.
They always dive on the bike.
And I wanted to reflect the strips on the bikes.
Get magpies all horned up for a dive bomb.
Just wear your best jewels next time.
No, wear your sequin running singlet.
Do you love that?
Yes, I do.
With my tinfoil hat.
Keep the 5G out.
Protect me from the dive bombing.
And look, absolutely fabulous while I do.
All right, quarter past seven.
Stay tuned, though, because these baby birds are real cute.
I can't wait for them to hatch.
Play ZM's Fleshphone and Megan.
So, dating apps.
Whatever one you're on, it doesn't actually matter.
Research has found out how long it takes people to decide
whether they're going to swipe right,
whether they're going to be like, yes, I'm into it.
Do they go through the multiple photos you can upload?
Do they read the bio?
And then make a well-informed decision on all of that information?
If I made a dating app, I'd make it so you swipe up for good
and down for not good.
Not your cup of tea.
So you'd be like, ah, ah, ah.
Yeah, but everyone's going left to right.
If you were on a dating app, what would your photo be?
I don't know, just my face probably.
Yeah, but would you do like a pose?
Would you hold a fish or something?
Probably not.
This, yeah, I just made a quick gesture to Fletch.
That's why he's gasping for air.
But I mean, that would actually set the precedent.
That photo.
I can tell you that absolutely wouldn't work.
It would.
It would let everybody know what I'm all about.
No, it wouldn't.
You're wondering what the gesture was?
It was me holding up my nose to look like a piggy. Because I don't want them thinking I'm a about. No, it wouldn't. You're wondering what the gesture was. It was me holding up my nose to look like a piggy.
Because I don't want them thinking I'm a light eater.
I'm quite happy to speak for women.
I would salitate my nose up like a pig.
I'm quite happy to speak for all women and say no.
Nah.
Don't do it again.
Some of them.
I'm not on the dating app for a bloody second marriage, mate.
I'm out there to tear it up.
Okay, that's all obviously hypothetical.
Tear it up.
Yuck.
Okay.
Am I not doing good lads chat?
No, you're not.
I'm out there to tear it up.
I'm out there to bloody get into it, get amongst it.
Show these ladies what I got.
Give them what I got.
Thank goodness dating apps have never had you on them.
Hurricane Smith.
Tearing up caravan parks.
Ripping roofs off houses that were constructed poorly.
A study has shown that it takes people one second,
within a second even.
Are you kidding me?
Within a second. So to decide. They'll be second, within a second even. Are you kidding me? Within a second.
So to decide.
They'll be like, he looks like fun.
So even if you're doing it with a group of people
and you're like, hmm, I don't know, what do you think?
You've already decided within a second in your own mind.
So the decision comes before, if you're delaying the swipe,
you're just trying to make it seem like you're a.
You're trying to justify it to yourself.
Holy moly, that's something.
Isn't that quick?
Yeah. And like, that's so. Isn't that quick? And like
that's so judgmental, right?
I mean, we know it is. Whether you want to
admit it or not, they said
it comes down to the attractiveness
of a person to you.
And also
race comes down to it. So it's
based on appearance and race.
So...
The race of the swiper or the race of the person on the-
I'm guessing the race of the person's photo.
Wait, so people would-
Oh, okay.
So, yeah, I mean,
attractiveness comes down to
the eye of the beholder, right?
So someone might be into something
that someone else isn't into.
I mean, just for the record,
I got old Hurricane Smith.
He hits every continent.
Does he?
Okay, yeah, right. He's swiping on everyone. Oh, to old Hurricane Smith. He hits every continent. Does he? Okay, yeah, right.
He's swiping on everyone.
Oh, absolutely.
Hurricane Smith.
Absolutely.
There's a world out there to explore.
I can show you the world.
If you're swiping in a second, it's even taking you even less time to, in your brain, go yes or no to that person.
Like immediately.
That is insane.
Your brain's like, yes or no.
Also, women made
Less choices than men
So women swiped right less
They were more picky
Right
So does that mean
They're taking
That's not news
Don't wheel that out
In breaking news
Women are more picky than men
The guys are like
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yep Yeah Yep Yeah Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, yep, yep.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gareth, you're swiping right on everybody.
It's like fishing.
Half the net wide.
Yeah, women are like, guys are like, chuck the net in.
Deep sea trawling.
Yeah.
So does that mean that women are taking more time to swipe?
Or is it still a second for women as well?
Still the same amount of time.
But they just spend less time doing it then.
Or maybe in their mind they're just like no more often.
Right.
Than the men are.
Wow.
So I mean, yeah, people pour over those bios, right?
But unless they find you attractive within the first second,
they're not reading it.
There's really no point in a bio, is there then?
Not really.
Unless they read it after you've matched.
So, unless they read it and then they discover that you're attractive
but you're a douchebag and then...
Unfollow or just don't talk to you.
Profile picture.
Yep.
Makes it look like their phone has got a crack in the screen.
So they're like, oh.
Yeah, but it wouldn't work.
Or a hair.
They're swiping through a whole lot of paper.
Yeah, but then they think they've cracked it somehow.
Oh, and so then the hair makes them swipe.
No, no, no, they stop and they go.
And then that just gives them a little bit longer
to fall in love with you.
And then they might see your bio.
Right. But what's the photo that you're using with you. And then they might see your bio. Right.
But what's the photo that you're using with the hair on it?
Is it your face?
It's just any photo, but it looks like it's got a hair on it.
Okay.
I don't think a couple of seconds extra is going to do you any favours.
But they've been swiping, like, you know, 20 photos,
and all of a sudden the hair pops up.
They're going to know it's your hair.
Eyelashes fall out all the time.
Right. Eyelashes fall out all the time. Right, okay.
Eyelashes fall out all the time.
All right, well,
if any single people
want to use the eyelash
on the...
Or a fly.
Put a fly on.
Flies are always landing on things.
Okay, if anybody wants
to put a two-dimensional hair
or a fly on a photo
and let us know how that goes,
that would be great.
Trust old Hurricane Smithy.
Trust me.
A hit with the ladies.
Yeah.
I'm just out here tearing it up. Yuck. I hit with the ladies. I'm just out here tearing it up.
I'm just out here.
I'm just out here.
I'm a force five bloody hurricane.
I'll tell you what else a Punisher Hurricane Smithy would love.
A summer festival.
I'm out here tearing it up.
We want to talk next about summer festivals because they...
The thing is... Why am I tearing up?
Some people talk like this.
Me either.
But I'm out here and the minute I find out what I'm tearing up,
I'm tearing it up.
Okay.
Me and the boys.
Summer festivals.
Me and the boys are out here tearing it up in a load Hilux.
Some of the...
With our number on the back window.
We're going to put a polythene
in the back and fill it with water. Mobile pool,
babes. Get in here and
we'll tear it up.
Are you done?
Are you done?
I've got adjustable suspension too.
ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Well, yesterday
at the 4pm press conference with
the Prime Minister, Ashley Bloomfield.
The questions are plenty. Is it the Prime Minister, Ashley Bloomfield. The questions are plenty.
Dr. Ashley Bloomfield.
Is she the Prime Minister now?
The Prime Minister and Dr. Ashley.
There was a comma there.
I didn't hear your comma.
You said Prime Minister, Ashley Bloomfield.
You didn't verbalise your comma.
Please verbalise your comma.
Okay, well, people know they're two people.
They're two different people.
I just thought she might have given him a go for a week.
She's like, I've had enough of this.
Jacinda's just like, you can all fuck.
I don't know how anyone wants to be the Prime Minister
or even just be a politician.
I just want to cry all the time.
I had a dream she was having trouble with a carburetor
in a lawnmower last night.
Oh, and you walked in and helped her?
No, no, no, she knew what she was doing.
I don't know what I was doing.
Why?
Is this because you offered to mow her lawn?
Maybe, I don't know. Is that why? Okay, Is this because you offered to mow her lawns? Maybe.
I don't know.
Is that why?
Okay, well, that's weird.
She had a blockage in the fuel pipe going into the car, which is the main problem.
Great.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Cool dream.
So, I was like, where do you find the time?
That's what I said.
Where do you find the time?
To fix her own.
And she's like, this is my quiet time.
I'm what?
Fixing motors.
That was your hint, even in the dream, to leave her alone.
It's my quiet time. Tell me more.ing motors. That was your hint, even in the dream, to leave her alone. It's not quiet time.
Tell me more.
So the talk yesterday at the press conference turned to vaccine certificates.
And the government said that they are exploring them and actively considering them.
And they'll be consulting with those in the different sectors that they would affect.
I'm guessing things like hospitality and talk turn to
summer festivals because
you want to know that
you're going to be able to book all your time
away. You're going to be able to go.
It's a huge gathering
of people, right?
It's good for you, isn't it?
You have a fun time.
That's like a robot
who's just learning about fun.
Humans gather in numbers
and enjoy company.
Listen to music,
eat food and drink for fun.
They call it recreation.
I guess you've just got to have
something to look forward to.
And so many people
already have tickets.
They work hard during the year to relax over summer
to work hard again next year.
They repeat this until they die.
Oh, my God.
Don't say that.
Okay, that's sad when you say it like that.
The only thing they have to live for are their holidays.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
They have been fooled into
The real slavery
Deep man, deep
That's philosophical Wally
He's putting up rubbish just ragging on whoever we're on
Yeah
All for consumerism
Can you shut up
He does not like the harsh reality
Of his existence
We need to get to the poll and you need to Shut up He does not like the harsh reality of his existence.
We need to get to the pole and you need to... Shut up.
Shut up and stop making us feel bad.
I'm not coming to work tomorrow, man.
That robot had a point.
Every day.
You know why?
Just to come the next day?
What's happening, man?
I mean, you need to get paid to live.
No, I'm going to talk to the bank.
I'm pretty sure they'll see my point of view.
I owe you guys so much money, but hear me out.
I was playing a character on the radio where I was being a robot.
Right.
You know you have control of this microphone.
I do.
Mr. Smith, have you been taking your meds?
I don't need them anymore, man.
The robot that I was playing was speaking some truth.
Jesus.
I'm just out here tearing it up.
So we ran a poll and asked you about vaccines for festivals
and should they be mandatory?
Because that's what people are saying,
is that if we're going to have these big summer gigs and concerts.
Big gatherings.
And also, like, I feel like we're at the kind of point, New Zealand,
that you can look overseas and see other countries are ahead of us
and behind us and you can kind of
work out what's going to happen. And most
countries have made them mandatory, right?
Yeah. So it's going to happen.
Like you can't go to a Live Nation
concert in the USA without being
double vaxxed. And they
run all the concerts, even here, most of them.
That is
related to the law
of that place though, right? Yeah.
So I don't know what's going to happen here.
But we asked you.
So we asked, should proof of
vaccination be mandatory at summer festivals?
85% of
people said yes, it should be.
So that equates
to 6,712 people
said yes, 1,155
said no.
A couple of comments.
Someone said, literally considering selling my Northern Base ticket
if they don't make being vaccinated a rule.
Oh, wow.
Okay, so the other way around.
And someone said, as long as proof you can't be vaccinated
will also be accepted.
100%.
Because that's the other thing, is that people who can't be vaccinated.
But that's why we're doing it, right?
But then if you can't be vaccinated
and you go to the event,
you could still get COVID, right?
Yeah.
So what, is the world on the other side of this
just going to be people who couldn't be vaccinated?
Just don't do anything?
Well, yeah, that's why we need to get vaccinated,
to help those that are vulnerable.
To protect those, yeah.
Like so many babies have been in ICU in this outbreak alone.
Yeah.
And they can't be vaccinated.
So, yeah, it's why we do it.
ICU nurses came out and said,
hey guys, we're not paid enough to be in on this global conspiracy.
So we'd tell you if it existed and it doesn't exist.
We have seen it firsthand
and we have to wear 18 layers of plastic to deal with this,
and we don't have the facilities, and this is very stressful,
and please just get vaccinated so that we can have some sense of normality
in this job that we signed on to.
That's the nurses talking.
That's the people who are dealing with the day-to-day.
So do it for them.
That's not the government officials getting paid to tell you that.
That's not anybody with any grand international conspiracy on their side.
That's the person that's going to have to look after you
when you are struggling to breathe and maybe dying.
So I don't feel like they would lie to you
because they don't want you there.
Yeah.
ZM's Flesh Warner Megan.
Play ZM.
Well, you said skate park, but she was quick to point out in level three they've been obeying the rules and it wasn't at a skate park.
Oh, okay.
It was on their daily exercise regime.
Executive intern Anya and Mr. Bun Buns.
Bun Buns or Bun Buns? I feel like I've used
the wrong vowel there.
Mr Bun Buns headed out
for a little exercise.
He was on his BMX.
Is that right? No, he
started off on the skateboard.
And then
we're seven weeks into lockdown, so I was like,
I'm going to be a bit crazy.
I'm going to go on the skateboard too.
Are you good at being on the skateboard?
I'm not good on any wheels, really.
Seems like not something you just jump into.
No, I'm much better stationary on all fronts.
Okay.
So, yeah, I was feeling a bit random.
You are crazy. Yeah, I was feeling a bit random. You are crazy.
Yeah, this was pretty wild.
And so I decided safety first, though.
I was being random safely.
And I got his BMX helmet out of the garage.
I was like, whoa, look at me put on your crazy helmet.
Wow.
You can make safety so crazy.
Yeah, and Andy's pretty sick of me by this point
So he's like yeah okay cool
While he's trying to do his flips and stuff
And I'm like yeah good flip
And then I put the helmet on
And it was a humbling experience
Because I couldn't get it off
What did you do the clip up
And the clip wouldn't come undone
No it's like a
Like a space helmet situation.
Like it comes in, like your whole head goes in.
Oh, it's like a BMX helmet.
Yeah, and then my cheeks were like two metres high,
like into my forehead.
Yeah.
And I couldn't see anything.
And my like cheek flab is kind of like
slightly perched over the helmet.
So you're really stuck in that helmet.
Really stuck in there.
And at this point,
I started getting a little bit of attention,
which was nice.
It's like, ho, ho, ho,
what's happening over here?
But I still got on the skateboard,
still gave it a go,
and then I really was like,
all right, this is enough,
and tried to take it off,
and it was not going anywhere.
And that's when you had to ring the fire department
and they cut you out with the jaws of life.
Did you have to lube it?
Yes, we got some hand soap.
Are you kidding?
That's the worst lube.
Are you serious?
Did you have any canola oil or something?
Butter.
You don't want to canola oil your helmet.
That's expensive.
Yeah. Just a little bit.
Nah.
A little bit of hand soap.
Andy was pretty unimpressed about it.
You seriously lubed up the helmet.
Yeah, I just put like a bit down your cheeks.
Just pull it.
No, no.
It was very snug.
Jammed on.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
You're the Lord.
You've got to lube it, but I wouldn't have used hand soap.
Well, I'm sorry.
Next time I'll be like, hang on, can we call my friend Vaughan?
Wait, like pump soap or like a bar soap?
Yeah, pump soap.
A pump soap.
I'm not getting a bloody Lux bar in there.
So he's like, can you get a palm olive?
And then I go, yeah, no, that makes a little bit more sense.
Right, and then so you put the hand soap in there and it slipped off.
It slipped off slightly easier.
It was still very painful. I might
need to go to physio as a result. ACC
if you're listening, this did happen. I pulled the neck.
Yeah. Right. So
yeah, I think I might hang out my
skateboarding boots. Which is worse?
The getting stuck in the helmet
all the time you got stuck in the donut at Springfield?
I hate you. And Canterbury.
Thanks so much for bringing this up again.
Still the donut because that was in public.
Yeah, yeah.
People are driving past and you're...
Well, it's time for our annual
where did you get stuck phone-in topic again.
To make Anna feel better about her getting stuck in the helmet
and getting stuck in the Springfield donut that one time.
We want you to share the stories when you've got stuck in something.
I've been stuck in many a dress in a changing room.
Because you're like, yeah, this will fit.
It doesn't.
Or it's like, you can just hear a slow, like a slight tear.
Like it hasn't teared through the fabric, but it's teared something.
And you're like, oh, just take this off and put it back.
Don't look.
Don't look.
You didn't see.
I didn't do anything.
Bit of a stretch.
Give us a call.
0800-DARN-CITY.
You can text as well.
9696.
Where or what did you get stuck in?
We want to know where you got stuck.
It could have been a head in a BMX helmet.
Or it could have been the donut In Springfield on the way over
To the West Coast
Executive Inter90 certainly is racking up some
Some stocks
Some stocks
But it's great for the show isn't it
Yeah
Good content
Someone said I got stuck
Trying on a wedding dress
And I had to get the lady that worked there
To help me out of it
Because I was by myself
It was very awkward
Someone else got stuck on the en suite
When they shut their cavity slider
And then heard katonk And that was it falling off the rails.
And it just got jammed in the door space.
And that's it.
That was it.
I stuck there.
You live in an en suite now forever.
Hayley, you got stuck when you were 14.
Yeah, I got stuck in a toddler swing at the local park.
Yes.
Like, my mum can still do this.
My nine-year-old got stuck in one of those, and it
was a glorious lesson of dunk it, and then you'll
get stuck. And then she did, and then you just didn't even have
to say, I told you so. It was just like... Yeah.
It was one of the fiberglass ones, so
there was no part to lift up. It was like fiberglass
with a bar, and my
friend, who's quite a few kgs lighter,
got in and out perfectly fine. I was like, I can
do that too, and got stuck,
and someone had to go and get my dad, and he just about called the fire brigade to cut me out perfectly fine. I was like, I can do that too, and got stuck, and someone had to go and get my dad,
and he just about called the fire brigade to cut me out of it.
How did you get out of it, though?
Managed to slide out.
You've got to keep your legs straight,
and he had to come behind me and lift me out,
and all the back of my legs were swollen, and I couldn't walk.
Oh, my gosh.
Was there anyone around watching that?
Yeah, well, an older couple had walked through the park
just after I'd got in and they'd gone on their walk
and I was still stuck in it when they came back through.
So, yeah, I was quite a long time stuck in this thing.
I like to imagine when they were walking, they were like,
I wonder if that girl will still be stuck when we get back.
And that's what you're like. Brilliant. Hayley, I wonder if that girl will still be stuck when we get back.
Brilliant.
Hayley, thanks for your call.
We'll get to more of your texts and calls next.
Talking about getting stuck places.
Yeah.
No shortage of people
being stuck places.
As long as there's been humans,
there's been things too small
for them to try to fit in.
Is this making you feel better
after getting stuck
inside the BMX helmet?
Yes, it is.
Thank you, everyone.
Because some of these are way worse.
Yep.
Good.
I'm going to start with this.
I think this is a heroic story.
Okay.
I got stuck on one of those donuts that you tow behind a boat.
How do you?
Oh.
Someone said, auntie.
Like a biscuit.
Huh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A biscuit.
Yeah, yeah.
Someone said, auntie, dad is going to try to make you flip over,
so just wedge in real good.
Well, I wedged in too bloody good.
He could not get me out no matter what he did.
Going so fast, bouncing along the wake, over the boat.
He did those tight circles.
I was way out the side, didn't come out.
He flipped me over.
I was still in it.
Oh, my gosh.
Got back to shore.
I was still in it.
It took most of the whanau to pull me and push me out of the donut.
Full beach and pie here.
I would applaud that.
I would give a standing ovation.
I would be in awe as someone who has been flipped out of those things.
That should be an Olympic sport, actually.
I'd watch that.
Uncle Roger put us through the reeds on the side of the Waka
to try to get us out.
Oh, my gosh.
And we're just like, those reeds are like whack, whack, whack.
Smashed against some boat
sheds. Yeah. Some water sent
to the dam.
Georgia, what happened?
It wasn't me who got
stuck. It was a work colleague
of mine. Okay. She did a leaf
blower stuck to her head.
How do you get a leaf blower?
But that blows. It doesn't suck it in
No, it sucks in from the side
No, the outside fans
It got her hair caught in it
And it just completely sucked straight up
And was like so close to her scalp
That when the fire brigade came
They thought that they would have to take her to hospital
With the fan on her head
Oh my god.
That would just be a nightmare.
Yeah, she had a bald patch
for about six months.
She got scalped.
And the fibregate had to turn up as well.
That would have been embarrassing.
Very embarrassing.
Georgia, thanks for sharing.
Jay, what did you get stuck in?
I got stuck in the diving pit, foam pit in a gym when I was a kid.
They are hard to get out of, even as an adult, the foam pit.
Oh, yeah, because you sink.
At jump.
Yeah, the heavier you are, the more you sink.
Oh, yeah.
I had to get lifted out by a crane kind of thing.
That was in the gym.
Wait, wait, wait.
They had a crane kind of thing that was in the gym. Wait, wait, wait. They had a crane on hand?
Yeah, so kids used to get stuck pretty often,
so they put one of those, like, electric crane things on the roof
and it would lift you out.
I've seen the electric crane thing, and I was always like,
that must be for, like, lifting in and out equipment.
But no.
Yeah, that's what I thought too.
But no, it's for kids. They get stuck.
Oh my God.
I would die if I got lifted up by a crane.
I would rather die there than get lifted up by the crane.
Jay, amazing.
Thanks for your call.
Some other text messages in.
My seven-year-old got stuck in the toilet.
I was sitting on it and he slid down into it.
Now, one of the toilets has a plastic seat,
so that's got a bit more give.
So you slide down, you can slide yourself out.
However, he did this on a ceramic toilet.
Oh, you're not getting out of that.
Got stuck.
I had to use lots of oil, olive oil to free him.
Nearly called the fire brigade, but stopped short of that.
I got stuck in a paper magazine recycling igloo
when I was in primary school.
Climbed in, I couldn't get out.
What's a recycling igloo project?
It sounds like a class project.
I don't know.
Or is it like an igloo shit you put your paper in there?
Well, maybe.
Somebody else said I climbed into a skip because I was like,
I saw something I wanted.
Dumpster diver.
Yeah.
And get stuck.
Could not get out.
Could not get out. Could not get out.
I got stuck on the skirt.
How do you get stuck on the skirt?
Hey, you on the phone?
I bet I can guess your mum's name.
Well, for those new to I Bet I Can Guess Your Mum's Name,
new to the show,
this is a game where Vaughn has five questions
to ask about somebody's mum
and then has 15 seconds to guess that mum's name.
Was it the last one that was Karen and you...
Yeah.
Absolutely missed a sitter.
I got home and my kids were like,
I can't believe you messed this up!
I was like, I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry I let you down.
You always say Karen and you didn't say Karen.
A bit of a lockdown funk at the moment.
You've had some losses.
It's really hit your confidence.
You know what?
It's like the Warriors.
Yeah.
Knock their confidence and they're out.
Maybe you need a night on the Gold Coast with Reece.
What's his face?
Walshie.
Yeah.
Walshie.
Yeah, nothing weird at all about a dude who's nearly 40 hanging out with a 20-year-old.
Hey, Walshie.
Got any of that good stuff out there, Walshie?
I don't do drugs.
We welcome Holly.
Good morning, Holly.
Good morning.
All right, now.
I've got three drugs of choice.
Caffeine, alcohol, and the Lord Jesus.
Okay.
All right, Holly.
I don't know how Vaughn's going to go today, Holly.
He's in a weird mood.
Yep.
It's 2021, baby.
Let's party.
Hi, Holly.
Hi.
So her mum's name is not Holly.
It might be.
No, because Holly would be Holly Jr.
And she'd probably go by HJ then.
Does that ever happen with females?
Not really.
I don't think so.
That's a really good call.
All right.
Well, Holly, Vaughn now has five questions to ask about your mum, and then we'll have
15 seconds to guess her name.
Cool.
What is mum's favourite vegetable?
Oh.
What is mum always like?
Oh, I feel like some insert vegetable here.
Well, she does a really good roast.
No, no, no.
Yeah.
Roast pumpkin and yams and all that stuff.
She's a yams lady.
She's a yams lady.
Okay, well, what kind of mums like yams?
What are they called?
Catherine. Okay, you reckon kind of mums like yams? What are they called? Catherine
Okay, you reckon a Catherine
Okay
Catherine with a C or a K
Okay
Also Tanya's, they love a yam
Okay, do they?
That's a fact
Tanya's famously love a yam
Andrea, are there yams?
Yep
Jennifer, but when I say Jennifer
That also counts if she identifies as a Jenny Okay Do Karen's like yams? Yep. Jennifer. But when I say Jennifer, that also counts if she identifies as a Jenny.
Okay.
Do Karens like yams?
Jane.
I'm going to put a Karen.
Thank you, Megan.
I'm going to put Karen in there just to make sure.
Okay.
Linda.
Oh, yep.
Okay.
Linda.
Linda.
Okay, next question.
That's Dad when he's looking for something.
Linda.
Linda.
I can't find the snips!
Because dads call them snips.
Yeah, they do.
I don't call them scissors.
Yeah.
Linda, where are the bloody snips?
Yeah, they're probably where you left them.
Keith?
All right, Linda and Keith.
What is your mum's, like, band?
What music is your mum into?
And it doesn't have to be, like, a specific band. It can be a genre.
At the moment, her and dad have been
listening to a lot of Marlon Williams.
So, you know, good Kiwi music.
Funky mum.
Funky mum.
She'll love that.
Funky mum.
Oh, yeah, that's kind of stumped you, hasn't it?
You're thinking of some names now.
Because she might have been mum,
but she might have, like, a funky mum name like Rebecca.
Like, she might have been one of the first Rebeccas out the gate.
Because, you know, like, Rebecca's was, like, a 70s, 80s name.
Yeah, right.
Prior to the 70s, was there any Rebeccas kicking?
But she might be a Rebecca, so that's going on the list.
Okay.
All right, Next question.
Rosie.
Rosie or Rose?
Yeah.
Next question.
Vaughn's writing names down.
Well, she might be one of those mums with, like, not a funky name,
but a funky attitude, like a Wendy.
Okay.
Wendy.
What about a Jenny?
I've got Jennifer.
I've got Jennifer.
Remember from accounts.
Accounts. All right. I've got Jennifer. Remember from accounts. Accounts.
All right.
Okay, next question.
What are your mum's siblings' names?
She's just got one brother called Bruce.
Bruce.
Oh, okay.
I know a Bruce, and I can't think of what a sister's name is.
I know his brother's name's Stuart.
Sister's name's Stuart.
That's an older one.
What about Demi?
Demi?
Like Bruce Willis.
You mean Demi?
No, isn't it Demi?
No one says Demi.
Demi what?
Demi, well, she had Demi.
I'm thinking of a Demi Lovato.
But that's too young.
That's too young. What about a funky Debbie?
What about a Debbie? Debbie, yeah, okay. Or a Deborah?
Debbie.
But I'm going to say Deborah, but it counts
for Debbie as well. Okay. That's a
subset of the Debra's. Alright, okay.
And a Jackie. Have I got a Jackie?
Next question. Stop hurrying
me. This is why I've been losing.
Mr. Rush, everything has to
be in a bloody a million miles an hour.
I want you to calm down. I want everyone to relax.
I need calming.
I feel like, you know, like our
funky accountant, Helen.
She's very funky, our accountant. We all share an
accountant, by the way.
Funky Helen.
And Helen's got a sister called Kate.
They're a couple of funky sisters.
Am I going to sue
or a Suzanne or a Susan? Okay, that counts a couple of funky sisters. Okay, yeah, right. I'll put them down. Have I got a Sue or a Suzanne or a Susan?
Okay, that counts for all of them.
Okay, what's mum's favourite TV show?
Shut up, you.
What's mum's favourite TV show?
Oh, good question.
I mean, she's caught up with Home and Away
for the last, like, 10-odd years or so.
Oh, she's a big Home and Away watcher.
Okay.
Yeah, so she watches that while Dad has a nap.
What's Dad doing napping that late in the day?
Irene.
Pepper.
Who else has a classic Home and Away name?
Alf.
Who was Kate Ritchie? Who was Kate Ritchie on the show?
Sally.
Sally.
I might already have a Sally.
No, I don't have a Sally.
Thanks, Holly.
Okay.
Okay.
And what kind of phone does mum have?
I think she has an old Samsung.
Like, not like a new one, like an older one.
Okay.
Okay, okay. How old? Oof. has an old Samsung. Not like a new one, like an older one. Okay.
How old?
I think she upgraded it last year.
That's not that old then. What are you doing ragging on mum?
Not like a new upgrade, like an old
upgrade. Wait, so she
bought a phone second hand, did she?
No, it was like a new
one, but like an older version.
She got a deal, did she?
Refurbished.
She loves a deal.
Mums love refurbished technology.
Yeah, they do.
Love a one deal day.
Six months later, they're like, that's slow.
It's just slowed right down.
You're backing yourself?
No.
Oh, babes, you're all right.
Okay, check some more names down there.
Vorm will now have 15 seconds to guess your mum's name, Holly.
If you hear your mum's name, yell out.
Isabel.
Yell out.
Stop.
That's my mum's name.
Isabel.
Yeah.
Is that our other accountants?
Yeah.
Stop naming the accountants.
Okay, I'm going to add it to the list, though.
Yeah.
Oh.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Oh, he's not feeling this, Holly.
So?
Neither, to be honest.
Holly, you stand to win money if I win.
You shouldn't be negging me.
If it helps, my mum just messaged saying that she's got a Samsung A12.
I need to look what that looks like.
Now you know her name.
Sarah.
A12.
Not bad, mum.
For mum, that's a whole screen.
Okay.
A whole screen.
Not expensive, though.
Those are $287.
Okay.
All right.
That's the cheapest I could find it.
Does that spark anything?
Because, Vaughn, your time to guess Holly's mum's name starts...
Okay.
What about Wendy?
He's got Wendy.
He's got Wendy.
Okay. After a losing streak. Oh got Wendy. He's got Wendy. Okay.
After a losing streak.
Oh, God.
Weeks of losing.
I bet I can guess your mum's name.
Vaughn, your time starts now.
Catherine, Tanya, Andrea, Jennifer, Jane, Karen, Linda, Rebecca, Rosie, Wendy, Louise,
Deborah, Jackie, Helen, Kate, Susan, Sue, Irene, Pippa, Sally, Elizabeth, Maria, Margaret, Isabel, Fiona.
Didn't get it.
You missed his fight.
You looked genuinely upset just then.
No, no.
The vibe was, I never felt like I hit it, you know?
Holly, what's your mum's name?
Her name is Rhonda.
Rhonda.
Rhonda.
Her favourite music was the Beach Boys,
and then I would have written down Rhonda.
No, I see she doesn't like that.
Oh.
She doesn't like...
Help me, Rhonda.
Help, help me, Rhonda.
Help me, Rhonda.
And what was your dad's name, out of interest? Dad's name is Ross. Ross and Rhonda. Help me, Rhonda. And what was your dad's name, out of interest?
Dad's name is Ross.
Ross and Rhonda.
Oh, what a ring to it.
Ross and Rhonda.
All right, Holly.
What a bliss.
Well, I hope he has a good nap this afternoon
while she's catching up on Home and Away.
She's got some yams.
Some yams ready for Sunday.
ZDM's Fletchmore and Megan.
A big study's been done in America asking people
when they finally felt like an adult, at like what age,
and what made them feel that way.
When do you have a moment when you were like, oh, okay.
When I bought a bed.
Oh, your very first bed.
Yeah.
Because like when I went flatting, my parents bought me a bed even.
So it wasn't until like later that I bought myself a bed
and I was like
whoa
this is
grown up
and you can choose
any bed you want
yeah
the cheap one
because you're a student
yeah
right
what about you?
I don't know
I don't think I have
because in my mind
like my parents
were so much more
grown up when I was a kid than I am now with my kids.
Yeah.
Like, there was a real, like, I thought, these are grown up people.
Yeah.
But I don't feel like I've ever hit that.
And then when you're the same age as them, you're like, I don't feel great.
Stuff like this.
Stuff like, my dad would look at animated shows on TV and be like, ugh, for kids.
Even like The Simpsons and stuff, he was like,
this is just for kids.
And so I still love animated TV shows.
So I feel like, ah, I must still be a kid.
All these things that are like, I was told for kids
that I'm still into, video games.
My dad would not comprehend a video game when he was younger.
So I'm just like, oh, well, I still haven't grown up.
And that's fine by me.
What about when you got a mortgage?
Did that make you feel real growing up?
No, that's make-believe money.
Like your student loan account.
I see how much I owe the bank, and I'm like, ha-ha, good luck.
Good luck.
Can I have some more?
And they're like, you can have a little bit more.
I'll be like, ha-ha-ha, you're never getting this back.
Every time I'm on the phone to the IRD,
I get off and I'm like, whoa, adult stuff.
Those guys need to calm down.
So that actually featured,
so of all the top things that made people feel like an adult,
I'll go through the list of the top, the number one,
making doctor's appointments for yourself.
28% were like, this is when I felt like I was an adult
because mum didn't ring. Sometimes I still make other people appointments for yourself. 28% were like, this is when I felt like I was an adult because mum didn't ring.
Sometimes I still make other people ring for me.
What, if you need to go to the doctor, you ask Mr. Toyboy.
Because I'm like, well, suck, and I can't do it.
I don't like talking on the phone.
Taking out life insurance or insurance for like, you know, your house, your contents.
Oh, yeah.
29% of people in the study were like, yep, that's me.
That's when I felt like an adult.
It's because they make you listen to that serious statement beforehand.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll just play the statement.
It's like, if you lie to us, we're going to get you.
Yeah.
Yeah, the bank said the same thing.
Good luck.
Sticking to a budget was next on the list.
That was when people really felt like an adult.
I'll let you know when that happens.
Doing taxes was the second to most popular time
when people felt like they were actually an adult doing the taxes.
That's why I let my adult accountant do that.
And help, this is me on the phone.
Bep, help.
I've received an email and they seem to want something.
They want more money. Money. They sent received an email and they seem to want something. They want more money.
Money.
They sent me an email
with an exclamation mark.
Did you pay them last time?
I'm like,
when was last time?
You were supposed to tell me.
Last year?
No, Vaughan,
six months.
I'm like,
okay,
so your adulting's
not going great.
Doing,
the number one sign
when people felt
like an adult was saving money.
Thinking or having to save money.
Yeah, that sucks, doesn't it?
Because they either were having to save for something important.
That's when they felt that was the number one on the list.
Also, as a sad side note, out of everyone that was studied, more than half, 51%,
felt like they're off track of where
they should be in life.
No, don't.
That's society, man.
All just comparing to other people.
Well, 39% said they felt
like they're being left in the dust by friends.
No.
And that's a dangerous way to be.
You can't be comparing your...
You don't know that the new car that someone's brought on Instagram
or the holiday someone's taking isn't ticked up.
100%.
And they're not in debt.
Or leased.
Or that they're terrible with their money.
You don't know that.
The rate of people who go bankrupt after their neighbours win,
like the lottery, is significantly higher than the general public.
Because, yeah, they see their neighbours win a lot and they'll get themselves a new car and they're like, well, I should get a new car then too. Keeping up with the general public. Because, yeah, they see their neighbours win a lot
and they'll get themselves a new car,
and they're like, well, I should get a new car then too.
Keeping up with the Joneses.
Yeah, yeah, and they bankrupt themselves.
Living a life they can't afford.
Oh, that's real sad.
Well, there you go, adults.
Play ZM's Flesh, Vaughan and Megan.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Today's fact of the day is about something that when I say the word,
you will want to do it.
Okay.
Like when I say yawn.
You'll yawn.
You could yawn.
When I say yawn, and it's all about yawning,
and yawning, you know, when you take a big breath in,
it yawns and it relaxes,
and sometimes you do it when you're tired,
but sometimes you just need to do it because your lungs.
Oh, I just gave up.
Yes.
Yawning.
Yep.
It's like that.
Okay.
What is it?
Itching.
No.
No.
What?
No itching.
I'm not going to itch.
Are you itchy?
Think about your whole body.
Start at the head.
Work your way.
Maybe it's your ear
because ears sometimes
get a little bit itchy
or noses, faces.
I've got one right here.
Oh my God.
The average person My cheek. scratches an itch 97 times a day.
Wow.
This was from a study.
Okay.
That's today's fact of the day,
is that the average person itches 97 times a day.
Look at you.
Yeah.
Get it on the air.
Give it a good scratch.
I still don't think there's much.
There's not much better than going to someone's house
and seeing their parents have got like a back scratcher
made of bamboo that they bought in Bali or Thailand
because they felt sorry for the person hawking them on the street.
But then they bring it home and dad like can't live without it now.
And you pick it up and you go.
And you scratch in the parts of your back that don't usually get a scratch.
There's another scratch. You just scratch the back of your back that don't usually get a scratch. There's another scratch.
You just scratch the back of your neck.
Okay, stop it.
That's two that you've ticked it off.
But yeah, they apparently put people under surveillance in this study
but didn't tell them what they were being surveilled on.
Surveilled?
Yes.
So it could have been anything.
So everybody was kind of like thinking about,
what am I being watched on?
What am I being watched on?
But they didn't think that it wasn't yawning
because you were just
yawning again
it was itching
and the average person
scratched and itched
97 times a day
it'd be more than that
surely
yeah
in 1997
there was
a groundbreaking discovery
is that
itch
itching
and pain
have different
nerve receptors
okay
the itch
itching has its own special nervous system path through our body.
And an itch travels really slowly.
Pain travels immediately, but the itch,
that's why you just don't go itch once and you're done.
You have to itch and you keep itching until that reaches your brain.
And it's like, yes, that will
satisfy me for now. So today's
fact of the day is the average human
will itch themselves 97
times a day.
Fact of the day, day,
day, day, day.

Find My Friends could be on.
Yeah.
Also, that location thing in Facebook Messenger is sketchy.
Like, sometimes it doesn't update for like 15 minutes.
Yeah, it is. And then suddenly you're like, what?
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Then they're knocking on the door and you've got your pants down and you're like, what?
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
I'm not ready.
Jesus. Jesus.
Yeah.
Which makes me think this is why Mr. Toyboy is wanting to know when Megan's due.
I'm seeking.
No, we used to do it so when he was like rehearsing and stuff,
like I know when he was coming home and I'd get like dinner ready
or like when you're going to the supermarket.
So like when you can see when they're pulling up the driveway,
you go out and help with the bags.
So it's pretty much,
it's the equivalent of sending a message saying I'm leaving work.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like saying I'm on my way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I remember he called you the other day in a panic because we stayed later.
We stayed late and we had like a meeting about stuff.
So he called me.
He thought you'd taken a fall.
Yeah.
He's like,
your St. John's Medialer bracelet hasn't told me you'd taken a fall. Yeah. He's like, your St. John's Medialer bracelet
hasn't told me you've taken a fall, but.
Yeah, well, yeah.
It's the thing about Dayton, old birds.
You've got to worry about the corner of a rug being upturned.
That's why they moved into the flat house with no steps.
They priced getting one of those chairs that go up the stairs. I'm right chairs. I'm right here.
I am right here.
I'd actually love one of those stair chairs, actually.
And, you know, she loves a walk down to the litter box.
She loves her independence.
Flat house, better, no stairs.
Yeah.
Just got to watch the rugs now.
But I never thought about it because, like, even right from the get-go,
even without, like, saying here's my live location,
we always knew where each other were because you'd, I right from the get-go, even without, like, saying here's my live location,
we always knew where each other were because you'd, I don't know,
you just always know.
Yeah.
Right when we first started dating, you're like, okay, he's at work.
We put a poll up.
Do you expect to know your partner's location when you aren't together?
Yes.
34% said yes.
What?
66% said yes. What? 66% said nah.
Yeah.
I expect the wording may have been misinterpreted as they must know where they are at every minute within on and within my sight.
Yep, that's what Megan said.
No, but you just do.
Like if you were two hours unaccounted for, you'd be like, where are they?
Where were you?
Are you all right?
Yeah. You might be like, I'm going out. I you? Are you alright? Yeah. You might be like,
I'm going out,
I'm going to the gym
or the mall or whatever.
Yeah, but you know
where they are then.
Yeah, that's fine.
Yeah.
But I don't know,
I just, yeah.
I would have thought,
I would have thought
everyone would have been on board
with me on this.
We've just got
fine friends turned on.
Yeah, so then if you want to know,
then you just look it up.
Yeah, like for a run
or a bike or whatever.
Shade said to me over lockdown when I've been trying to cycle
and looking like a giraffe on a circus bike,
she said, you better turn that on because if you get hit by a truck
and end up in a ditch, I want to find your body.
And I said, well, you better hope that I don't steal my phone.
She's like, imagine if they did, we'd be able to track your killer.
I was like, that sounds exciting.
Pretty awful.
Pretty awful.
I'll be dead. Everything is a true crime show now yeah everybody wants to solve a mystery yeah they do
right um but i i thought could we um open the phones on this how do you feel about partner
tracking like using find my friends or using a function like that or just do you think that
people need their own time like without being
I don't know
100% have your own time
but like also
someone cares about you
enough to know
yeah
where you're at
different when you've got
kids as well right
100%
and you're married
as opposed to just
maybe you're newly dating
yeah I definitely
didn't do it
before we had a child
well you didn't want him
to be on a photo shoot
with a hot model
did you
yeah
and then you're like
looking at your phone and you're like why is he be on a photo shoot with a hot model, did you? Yeah. And then you're like looking at your phone
and you're like,
why is he lingering outside contours?
That's a woman's only gym.
All right.
Oh my God.
I'm bloody married to a perv.
0800-DANCE-IT-N-9696.
Give us a tease.
How do you feel about a partner location
knowing their whereabouts?
At all times.
At all times.
At all times. Maybe this times. At all times.
Maybe this has been a source of arguments in your relationship.
Or maybe it's just something you think.
I don't know.
What do you think?
0800 DALS at N.
Give us a call.
So we ran a poll.
Do you expect to know your partner's location when you aren't together?
Like a lot of couples share, they do the Find My Friends, the apps on phones, smartphones.
Or like you, Megan,
you'll just send
every time you're coming home,
you'll send the live location.
Yeah, I'm sulking now
because everyone thinks
I'm a psycho.
Well, 34% said yes,
they do expect to know
their partner's location
when they aren't together
at all times.
I thought it would be
more than that.
66% are like,
nah, it's cool.
Somebody said
they turned on
their partner's share location on Snapchat Maps.
Oh, yeah.
He doesn't know that she turned it on for him.
So I wouldn't do that.
But she can see where he is.
I wouldn't do that.
At all times.
Yeah, see, that doesn't sound like you trust them versus just knowing when someone's going to be home.
Yeah.
Like it's got to be a mutual sharing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My husband was a pilot and sometimes I didn't even know which island he was in
so it was just nice
to have his location
so I could see
where he was.
So while we can get home
you can be like,
how was my mouth?
How was the pub again?
Yeah.
You weren't flying a plane.
Someone said,
all four of us did it.
Best thing for our marriage.
Sounds like somebody
had a slip up at some stage,
doesn't it?
That would actually,
do you think that would,
if you did forgive somebody for cheating,
and you're like, I can forgive them,
and you're like, but find my friends is a thing now.
Yeah.
That doesn't sound like you forgive them.
That doesn't sound like you do.
We lived in Christchurch during the earthquakes.
We always have a general idea of where each other are.
Somebody else said that as well, tracking when something goes wrong.
But I mean, to say to your partner,
hey, can you turn on tracking
because there might be an earthquake.
Yeah.
Or a volcano or a flood.
I don't know because the NZ Herald's always saying
that Ireland's going to erupt every three months.
So probably good to put that on.
Yeah.
I reckon put that on just because,
oh, actually you turn it on
because if that's quite close to your house,
that volcano,
I don't need to know whereabouts to run.
Oh, I'm screwed if that goes up.
If that goes.
Yeah. I was just thinking more to get your key to get into your house to have your house. Okay, now I'll need to know whereabouts to run. Oh, I'm screwed if that goes up. If that goes. Yeah.
I was just thinking more to get your key to get into your house
to have your stuff.
Whatever survives.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, okay.
I'll leave it all to you.
His interview history will be melted, don't worry.
Nah, it's all stored online.
You still have access.
I still got to get on there.
All right.
Well, 0800DARLS.M9696.
Keep your texts, your calls coming in.
What do you feel about...
How do you feel about sharing your partner's location online? Well. How do you feel about sharing your partner's location online?
How do you feel about knowing your partner's location at all times via tracking?
Wow, we're getting some messages in.
Someone said, I won't let my husband track me
because he'll see how I sit in my car for 15 minutes to half an hour after work
to read my book before coming home.
Oh, sick time.
Alone time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Someone said, yeah, we share our location. It's how time. This is a long time. Alone time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Someone said,
yeah, we share our location.
It's how I know
when to pop dinner on.
That way I don't have
to call in to check
and he thinks I'm a super wife
with my timing.
Yeah.
Same.
We use Life360.
Started using it
after the earthquakes
but now it's great
for when hubby's almost home.
I can turn off
the trashy tally I'm watching
and pretend I've been
folding washing for hours.
Good, see? It doesn't matter. That's a little
hack. Life 360's a good one. That's what me
and my best friend have. What else does it do?
It just, you can just see
you log on and see where they are at all times.
So it's like Find My Friends.
There's no additional services. When you drive
past their work, they'll send you
like a little message and it'll be like, Ellie's just
gone by your work.
Oh, really?
She's gone by your work.
I'm like, yeah.
Like she's a comet passing by Earth. Yeah.
A little Star Wars notification.
Tonight, Venus will be close to Mars.
Yeah.
Alana, how do you feel about the partner tracking?
I agree with Vaughn in regards to the safety element of, you know,
if someone's on a bike or around,
then you kind of want to track without for their safety.
And Alana, I'm a pretty cute dude.
Someone will snatch me in the back of their van.
Well, I'm a cute little lady and I think I'd have the same issue.
Yeah, same a lot.
And I can't say no to lollies.
Neither.
But I reckon, like, in terms of the day-to-day where they are,
like, I know where my husband is during the day
where he has to work in the country,
but I don't know what he's doing every moment of the day.
And that's cool because I trust him and it's, you know,
you're an adult, so it's all good.
I feel like that's directed at me.
No, not at all.
Would you want to know, like, when's he coming home exactly
or he'll just be home when he's home?
I know approximately when he's coming home,
but things in terms of if he's going to be a bit later,
I'm cooking rice, I'd like to know where he is.
Oh, my God, yes.
That's when you send the live location so you can get your rice on point.
Okay, so rice, yes.
Work, no.
Okay, brilliant.
Alana, thank you for your call.
I turned my husband's phone tracking on a while ago
because he'd go for a night out and he'd get so drunk
he couldn't walk or talk and his mates would just leave him
and no one would know where he is and he couldn't answer his phone.
So I'd have to...
He sounds useless.
That sounds like me.
A bigger problem that needs to be addressed.
That's a good thing to use it for, though.
Yeah.
A few weeks ago, I got home and my partner wasn't home and she
ordinarily is. I tried to call.
No answer. I thought
my dumb ass might have forgotten
that she had something after work and I couldn't think
of anything. Tried to ring again. No answer.
She was cheating. Next thing ambulances
flew past the house and I immediately
thought the worst. That's the human condition though isn't it?
Yeah. 20 minutes later in a near heart attack and my panicking and just getting ready to ring a hospital to see if she'd Influences flew past the house and I immediately thought the worst. That's the human condition, though, isn't it?
20 minutes later in a near heart attack and my panicking and just getting ready to ring a hospital to see if she'd been checked in,
she rung to say she'd just stopped at her auntie's for a coffee
and left her phone in the car.
Well, words were had.
Sounds like somebody's using Find My Friends after this.
Yeah, it sounds like a great idea just to know.
But then, oh, yeah, so if she has left it in the phone,
left the phone in the car, but the car was parked at the auntie's,
you'd be like, oh, that's auntie's house.
Yeah.
She just popped in for something.
Is everything all right?
If you've got to keep track of them, you've got health issues,
you've got trust issues, my wife can do whatever she wants.
Okay.
Until you can't find out where she is.
We had some messages in on one-way tracking.
Yeah. And so more of those.
Yeah, someone said, my
partner wanted to track my locations.
I was working 16-hour days, so I
thought they might just want to know if I'm
at work or not at work. And when I said, oh, you should
flip yours on so when I get home, if you're not home,
I can see whereabouts you are. And he's like,
there's no need. I'm like always here.
And it turns out he was always there when I was home.
But when I was working, he was sleeping around
and he just wanted to make sure I wasn't popping home for any reason.
Naughty.
Very naughty.
And somebody else said that Life360 can tell your dad if you've been speeding.
Oh, yes.
It's just when you're travelling.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
Their dad will just message them saying, slow down.
And if they do a thumbs up, he'll reply,
get off your phone while you're driving.
