Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Good morning. Thanks, Anya. Went viral overnight, didn't you, with your self-milking video? That was a hit online. Did you get any feedback from Bum Bum? No, but Mum was like, oh Did you get any feedback From Bum Bum's No but mum was like Oh you make me proud Aww

But she was saying It's sarcastic Yeah They say that And then It doesn't even mean Anything to you After a few years

Okay Water off a duck's back After a few years Yeah And then they'll be like Oh Debbie I got the supermarket hit me.

I don't know what you said the other day. And you're like, I hate you telling Debbie to piss off. Stop you, Debbie. Mum's like, oh, I just ignore her now. That's good. They just, they get there, mate. Yep. Hey, thanks for that.

Pass me a piece of paper. Coming up on the show, the top six. Yeah, an Australian couple, an Australian couple. An Australian couple? The Australian couple. Ah, Australian. No, you'd say an Australian. An Australian couple. Yeah.

They had a wedding. Yep. And it was KFC themed. Goodness me. Classy. But I've got the top six features of a KFC themed wedding coming up. All right. Also, the latest in community notices,

the weird and wonderful postings on your local Facebook page. You had a... Oh, it was an exciting day on the QMU Who Pie page yesterday. Wasn't there a stolen car? We had a stolen Range Rover. A really nice one, too. How do you steal a Range Rover? That's what I said to Sade.

I think the person must have left their keys in the car and just nipped to get something. Oh, right. And somebody pinched it. Yeah, right. Because that would be pretty anti-theft, I would imagine. Yeah. But yeah, that's the great thing about everybody having phones capable of video and those big community pages is there was literally just a comment thread of, it was like watching

a live coverage. Oh, did they end up getting it back? How'd they get the car back? Do you want to know now? No. Are you going to tell us in community notice? Oh, no, because it's not really on community notice. I'll tell you now.

A concrete truck slammed into it to stop it. Brilliant. The concrete truck will get in trouble though, right? Because the Range Rover had flat tyres and it was like, because it had been road spiked. Oh yeah right.

Of course it was West Auckland. It was going along the road and the concrete truck must have been on the old garage of Ruggeducky.

And he pulled across onto the other side of the road to pin the Range Rover. Oh okay. He's going to get in trouble for going

across the centre line right? No because he's stopping a criminal. He's doing the police a favour. Yeah, but it's not his... I know, but he'll still have to be told off. Yeah, I'd say work would be like,

what have you dinged our concrete truck for? He's like, well, I'm stopping a criminal. But how? He's a hero. He's a vigilante. It's not his job. But did he damage the Range Rover? Well, the Range Rover was ridden off anyway, Megan.

It's been... Well, no, the wheels would have been ridden off. The wheels? This would have definitely put a... Oh, yeah. Put a ding in it. They're like, I got your Range Rover back. It's got a concrete truck-sized

dent in the side. All right, ZM's $100,000 secret sound with Save My Bacon coming up at 7, your next shot at 8 o'clock. And if you haven't seen already, yesterday, a clue, a video went up

and the sound apparently is somewhere in that video. Have you seen it? No, because last time remember last time? I'm trying to restrict myself because otherwise I get a bit like... You go a bit crazy. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Alright

you lot, listen up, it's Storytime. Storytime three news headlines for quirky odd unusual news stories and Vaughan Quiet, you lot. Listen up. It's story time. Story time. Three news headlines for quirky, odd, unusual news stories. And Vaughan and Megan must deliberate and pick only one of the following three headlines. Headline one, parrot used in campaign of harassment. Parrot. Parrot.

Oh, I thought you said carrot. Oh. You need to get your ears cleaned. Yeah. Parrot. Parrot get your ears cleaned. Yeah. Parrot. Parrot. Okay, good. Headline two, stockpiling priorities.

And headline three, 12-hour problem for man after smoking marijuana. That's a problem in his pants, isn't it? It is a problem in his pants, yes. After 12 hours. Yeah. Better shit himself. I don't know how that happens. Other side.

Other side. Other side of the pants. Other side. If it's a problem I'm thinking of, I thought that was the opposite issue to most people who smoke too much weed. Yeah, I don't know why this was the case. Getting it to last for 12 seconds,

let alone 12 hours. Yeah. How interesting. So, well, if you know that one, do you want stockpiling priorities or do you want parrot used in campaign of harassment? Oh, I kind of want the parrot. What do you want? Yeah, I'll go parrot.

Okay. Want that one? Okay, we go now, I believe, Kenton line. So that's the UK. We go to the UK now. Yeah, they're always on or something, aren't they? Something on or something. Yeah, they are.

Devon on stoke. Yep. Kent on grass. Hems on... River bed. Yep. Water on... River.

Sure, sure. Well, over the last three years, a pensioner, Catherine Searle, 81, has terrorised her neighbours. She has thrown dog poo into her neighbour's garden. She's scratched their car and encouraged her rambunctious parrot to disturb them in the garden. So the widow, the 81-year-old pensioner, has been caught on camera 38 times.

On one occasion, she smeared grease over the bonnets of her neighbour's van. That was in 2018. On one occasion, she scratched the bonnet with a ring she was wearing. And in a sinister turn, the pensioner also placed sharp nails underneath the wheels of the van. Why is she doing this?

What's her motivation? She's just got something against them. She's been in court a few times. She lives on her own. She's been in the house since 1977. She was given a community order in 2017 for throwing the dog poo and apparently she's also used her parrot against them. She was given a community order in 2017 for throwing the dog poo. And apparently she's also used her parrot against them.

Because apparently it sings. The louder the music, the louder the parrot sings. Right, so she just puts that somewhere that would be inescapable. Yeah, so now she's in court. And yeah, it's for the court to determine how that's going. Can she be putting an old folks home yet? Seems like she might just be bored. Too much time

on her hands. Well, yeah, I think so. Get her a nice little job. She doesn't want a job. I don't think she's the kind of person who'd want a job. This will be your neighbour if you keep up your chickens in her garden. No, that's been remedied.

Has it? I've really stepped up with my chicken. No, Norma's not like that either. She's lovely. Good spirit. They all start off like this, don't they? Lovely. She's a good sort.

That is going to be all three of us when we get old. We're just going to really turn and get up to all kinds of shenanigans. I don't want a parrot. I'm not having birds. No! I was trying to explain to my daughters how annoying a pet bird is the other day. I can't believe I was allowed one as a kid. Well, your parents have got them, don't they Maggie? Yeah, can you imagine? We've always had

birds. We had cockatiels. They're like a step up and noise in a stream. You canary budgie situation. Yeah, right. Like squawking and loud whistling and you put a towel over it at night and it would be like, well it's dark, I've got to stop. Sometimes in the middle of the day we just put the towel over it.

Man, that thing is driving everybody crazy. I just can't believe I was allowed one because my parents were anti that much noise. They probably thought that was the easier of... They drowned us out with the bird. Yeah. thought that was the easier of... They drowned us out with the bird. ZM. Hit music. Lives here. Flesh,

fauna, Megan. The podcast. Sax. Let's talk about Sax, baby. Have you watched that Goop documentary yet? No. There's one episode that's about women's... It's not just about sex. It's about women's... I don't know.

Everything related. Yeah. What would you say that is? Arms? Intimacy. No, like everything to do with... Woman. No.

Bits. Down there. Women's, okay. The downstairs. Yeah, I guess so. Women's downstairs. Because I saw that come up on Netflix the other day and I was like, no, Gwyneth Paltrow, no.

Oh, I love, I'm converted. I love her now. I think she's so funny. Really? Yeah. Even though she'll sell like thousand dollar yoni eggs? Yeah, but she's just having a laugh. Like, that's more like if you're stupid enough to buy it, then ha ha ha.

Yeah, right. Literally, I think that's what she might say. Yeah, right. So, this isn't related to, what I'm about to tell you isn't related to the group story directly, but they do, it's very confronting and interesting for women, but they speak a lot about how you don't, women don't talk about what they would like in the bedroom a lot. A lot are unsatisfied, should we say.

Right, right. So I have some directives of what to do if your partner is bad in the bedroom. And I guess this goes for both. Who's this from? Gwyneth? No, it's not from Gwyneth. Okay.

Like a sexy, sexy. Yeah, right. But how is it getting to that point where you're in a relationship with someone and maybe you've been with them for a while and you're like, they're really bad in bed. Like, wouldn't that be... You don't want to, like, hurt their feelings and be like...

How do you tell someone that they're not great? You don't want to be like, okay, this isn't great. You don't invite them back for another sleepover if they suck the first time around, right? Exactly. And also, like, how do you... Even giving directives, like, sometimes you don't want to hurt their feelings. Maybe hot, I don't think.

What? What, Vaughn? Well, you want to know you're doing a good job. You don't want to find out later on she's gone to her girlfriends and been like, she was like, that was lovely. Lovely. And you're like, thanks. Yep. I've had that feedback before.

And then they go to their girlfriends and then you find out that that's happened. It wasn't lovely. That would be way harder to take than just being told at the time to not push that as hard. Wow. I was just trying to think of some feedback you might receive. Yeah, right. Take it easy down there, fella. It's not going anywhere, that sort of thing.

This is not feedback I've received. Yeah, yeah, right. I was just thinking of funny feedback that you could possibly give. Yeah, for sure, right. But not up there, that sort of thing. But like you said, people aren't open about that. No. So they're not saying.

Especially women. But this isn't direct towards women. It could be either way. Right, okay. So whoever you're in bed with is not great. This is how you approach it. And I would also say use your common knowledge to adapt it to the person you're dealing with, right?

Yeah. You know them. Yeah. So number one, don't make it about them. Make it about you. Make sure you point out that this is how I feel good. Right. Not you're doing that wrong.

You should say this is how I like it. Yeah. Because it's not necessarily wrong. Someone else might like that. Their previous partner may have loved it. Yeah, that's true. But everybody's different. Praise them for what you do like.

Pat them on the head. Good boy. Done well. This just sounds like Management 101. But it's just you've got to try and keep it positive otherwise you'll hurt someone's feelings. So just be like, yes, that was good. You're right though. This is also so far you could,

this could be dealing with someone in the workplace. It could be, yeah. Slow it down. Now, I initially thought that was the actual act, but it was even leading up to sometimes just like slow everything down and make sure that, you know, you're talking and communicating before you get to that point. That's probably for you to actually flitch that one.

Slow it down. You're a bit of a rip-shitting bust, aren't you? You're very, very busy. You've got all that other stuff you have to do. I'm very busy. Such a busy man. And the last one is have the conversation sooner rather than later. If you leave it too long.

Like when you're married. And finally you say, hey, that thing that we've been doing for like years, I actually hate it. Yeah. Wow, ouch. Yeah, give them the feedback early on. That's got to hurt because also they felt like they couldn't tell you at any time in the lead up to that.

Yeah. So, yeah, you've got to deal with it early, right? Right, okay. Has that helped? Yeah. I think so. Good. Has it helped you?

He's always having fun. I'm having fun. Fletchfawn and Megan, the podcast. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. From the ZM Think Tank. This is the Top Six. Hello there.

Hello there. You may remember KFC Australia running a competition to win a KFC wedding. Well, the wedding has been wedded. And I'll tell you what, I'm very disappointed. Okay. I'm very disappointed in this KFC themed wedding. Did the Colonel marry them? No. Oh, I thought that was part of the deal.

No. The only thing, Megan, I can see is that their flowers were red and white, like KFC's colours. They had a Kentucky Fried Chicken truck there for catering. And it was a red and white wedding cake, like a nice red and white wedding cake,

like a nice classic white icing wedding cake with red bows around each layer, triple tier, and at the top, a husband and wife figurine and a tiny bucket of KFC next to them. That sounds half-assed. Half-assed. Were the bridesmaids red and reed? No, he was in blue for a start. Blue? What, like baby blue or navy blue? Yeah, no, in blue for a start. In blue?

What, like baby blue or navy blue? Yeah, no, no, baby blue. Oh, no. And bridesmaids were in a red too dark to be the KFC red. Oh, right. Hmm. So it sounds like missed opportunities all round. Wow, these are the top six features of a KFC-themed wedding if I worked for KFC Marketing.

Okay. Because they paid for it all. Yeah, right. KFC paid for this wedding. It was all on a nice bit of land. Yeah. Number six on the list of the top six features of a KFC themed wedding files in charge, the colonel as your celebrant. Yeah.

You've got to get married by the colonel or a colonel lookalike. Or that sexy Japanese anime colonel. Remember him? Where a couple of years ago KFC had the sexy hipster. Or that hipster. The hipster. The hipster colonel. Yeah, right.

Yeah, he was sexy. He had it going on. He knows what's up. Probably would have banged one of the bridesmaids. Number five on the list of the top six features of a KFC-themed wedding if I was in charge. You know how nowadays you don't really want gifts because you've already lived together, like toasters and stuff. Yeah.

It's a bit old school, but everybody just wants a bit of cash money to float the honeymoon. Yeah. And you've got to do like a treasure chest or a wishing well. You could put your wedding gift money into a giant KFC bucket. Great idea. Yeah. That's your wishing well. And you'd probably have to come up with some neat

poem, because it's always like put it in the treasure chest, wish us our best. Yeah, you're going to have to want to get a lid and a lock on that, because you might have, you know, your uncle might put his fingers in it. Some slippery fingers. Some sticky fingers. Number four on the list of the top six features of a KFC themed wedding if I was in charge

are wedding favours that are KFC scented candles. Oh, yeah. Oh, they've got those. Taking time to smell of the KFC candle. Yeah, I remember they did that, didn't they? Yeah. Had a limited run. And Maccas are doing, what are they doing?

The quarter pounder or the Big Mac candles. Are they? I saw that online the other day. It'll just make you want to go out and eat one though. That's why, yeah. The gym I go to, you come out afterwards,

there's a McDonald's, a Domino's, a Peter Pit, a, there's like six food shops right next to each other. Yeah, right. And there's one healthy one in there

but it doesn't smell. Yeah. You don't smell a salad, do you? Yeah, but maybe they need to put a cucumber in front of a fan, you know, just to get you in there. You can't smell a cucumber. It's like 99% water. It's not 1% smell.

No, put some lettuce in front of the fan. Nothing, guys. The only thing that smells good about a salad is the unhealthy dressing. Yeah. Number three on the list of the top six features of a KFC themed wedding if I was in charge, a wedding dress made from lemon refresher towels. Yes. That would be a very nice touch.

Yeah. Number two on the list of the top six features of a KFC themed wedding if I was in charge, you don't have a page boy, you have a potato and gravy boy, and he walks down the aisle flicking potato and gravy off a spoon. Wow. And instead of a flower girl, you can have a three bean salad girl.

And she's throwing the three bean salad because no one wants to eat that shit. Take it off the menu. Do they still do beans? A three bean salad? Just let me confirm. Last time we talked, because the show's got a long running hate

of a three bean salad. I remember last time we Googled. I show's got a long-running hate of a three-bean salad. I remember last time we Googled. I don't mind it. I'm not. Shut your mouth. You're about to lose naming rights on the show. KFC, three-bean salad. Yeah, bean salad, KFC.

Oh, yuck. New Zealand, bean salad. People have even done copycat recipes. Someone must be eating it. It's just green beans and kidney beans. I can't even see a third bean. It's just called bean salad. Have they taken out a bean?

It used to be three bean salad. And now it's just bean salad. Could you hate it anymore? Yes, you could. They just took a third of the ingredients out. I don't know if it was ever called a three bean. I think it was just a bean salad, wasn't it? It was called a three bean salad. Okay it was just a bean salad, wasn't it?

It was called a three bean salad. Okay. A three bean salad. Kidney beans, green beans, butter beans. Right. That was the three beans. Yeah, right. I've taken the butter bean out.

See you. Probably the best bean. Yeah, probably was. And number one on the list of the top six features of a KFC themed wedding. When you drive away, you know how you always wave them goodbye and they're in the car and it's like, tink, tink, tink, tink, tink, tink, tink, tink. You've got to go through the drive-through. Great.

Get something for the road. You might as well. It's your wedding. That is today's top six. Fleshforn and Megan, the podcast. ZM. A news site in the UK has done something controversial and I'm a little torn.

I'm on board with it, but then again, it's kind of defeating the purpose of... Okay, so what's happened is the Bristol Live is the new... I think it's a newspaper and an online news website. And we all know stuff commenters,

Herald commenters on... Any news commenters on Facebook. Oh, horrible people. Some of the worst people. Some of the worst people. In fact, if coronavirus is going to get anyone, them. And the world would be a nicer place. Now, last week in Bristol, Greta Thunberg, am I saying that right?

Thunberg. Thunberg. Was there for a, they did a school's march. So the kids had a day of school, you know, to protest climate change. The news site noticed the unbelievable comments that were happening on the Facebook post regarding her. Now, obviously, she triggers old white men. That's no one. And, you know, psychologists and people have talked at length as to why she does trigger people.

Yeah. But they noticed that some of the things that were being said about her and commented were just, like, horrible, like, violence. Yeah, I hope a brick meets her face. Yeah, so that's what one person said. And what they've done is publish photos, unblurred, of the men that were making these comments

and threatening and threatening violence against a 17 year old girl and posted them in their newspaper and online. It's a public forum, right? Well, yeah,

that's the thing. It is. So that's the thing. They've said that publicly. Yeah. So if anybody went in there, they could see and click on that person's

profile and get a profile picture which could be their face. All this news service has done is cut out the middleman and done it for you. And that's the thing. Sometimes I'll get into a bit of a hole on the comments and I'll click on people's profiles when I see a comment that's like that. Really horrible. And I'll just be like, who is this person that could say such a thing?

And then you click on their profile and you see that they have kids or, you know, they're saying something disgusting about a woman and then they have daughters and pictures of them holding, and you're just like what is wrong with you? So, like, I'm kind of on board with it. They're getting a little bit

of hate for it, but then at the same time, I guess they are just, it's a vicious cycle, isn't it? They're then bullying those people that have made those comments, haven't they? I don't know, it's a little bit different

because those people said those things, they said them publicly and they were out there for anybody to find. Those predominantly men, I'm guessing, I can only see men's photos

of the ones you're scrolling through. They said those things when no one asked for their opinion. They commented publicly that newspaper is just essentially giving them a bigger platform, but in turn also showing how disgusting they are. Yeah.

Also, one of those profile pictures, doesn't he have be kind written above his head? Yeah, he does. Yeah, be kind, you will never walk alone. I think it's one of those when you turn your profile to support a cause. Yeah, right. You effing idiot. Yeah. I know.

That made me very upset yesterday. I had to, like, step away. This is Kevin. He's a dad. His comment, crush the bitch. Crush the bitch. Yeah. So I'm kind of for it.

I kind of think people need to be called out. Because you think you're making these comments, you know, anonymously, but you're not. No. But sometimes they just get caught up and they read all the comments and they're like, oh, I'm going to make

a stupid comment too. Crush the bitch. Yeah, but these are parents. These are the people that are supposed to be teaching children not to react that very way. Yeah.

Turn the other cheek and all that shenanigans. My God. Like I say, if coronavirus gets them first and only them, I think the world will be a nicer place. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. ZM. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan's Community Notices.

Hello and welcome to Community Notices, a segment of the show where we have a look at what's happening around New Zealand according to local Facebook pages. I'll start with this one. Mentioned it in the tease for the segment about someone being outed on the Otago Flatting Goods page. Oh, no. Leanne posts on there that she wants to warn other women about this person.

I won't mention his name. As he is known to send unsolicited DPs, but also has many posts on this page looking for work. Right. So there's an example of the work wanted ad. Yeah. And then beside it, a screen cap of her Facebook messenger where the first message comes in at 1.35am

and it's a picture of his penis with a, you know, a miniature Bic lighter next to it? Yeah. Why? You know the tiniest Bic lighters? Yeah, the little mini ones. The ones that are like half the length of an ordinary Bic lighter?

Yeah. Because it's about that size. Right, okay. Bye. So she said, regardless of the size, I'm just, this is the one he sent me, this is why I'm using this. She's blocked out the

thing with an emoji. But she's like, I've blocked him. If you receive a message from him and you've never messaged him before, don't open it because you'll see what I saw. And that can't be unseen. And no, it can't be.

No. The miniature big lighter. Yeah, okay. I don't know what's happening there. Odd. In other news, and Fletch, this one really will speak to you. Okay. It's in a group that specialises in houseplants.

Oh, okay. A Facebook community group where people get together and talk about houseplants. I could be into that. Kayleigh writes, I've had this beautiful succulent for about two years. Now, I'll show you a photo of the succulent.

She's done very well. It's beautiful. It's really nice. Beautiful succulent. I've had it for two years. I was so proud of it. Full, beautiful colouring. It was a perfect plant.

I had it in my kitchen window. I had a watering plan for it An alarm in my phone So if somebody else tried to water it I'd get so angry Because I wanted to take good care of it I knew where this was going I loved my succulent

And today I decided It was time to transplant it Into a cuter vase That suited it perfectly I go to pull it out From it's original plastic container That I was purchasing To find out that this plant

Is a fake plant I knew it I put so much love into this plant. I washed the dust off its leaves. I tried my hardest to keep it looking its best. I thought, I've finally done it, and it's completely plastic. How did I not know? Oh, my God.

But even if the plant is really good, the dirt is just like plastic. Yeah, you can always tell. Kind of plastic. Well, that's what she said. She never touched it because she didn't want to unnecessarily disturb it. Oh, right. How did I not know this? I pulled it from the container.

It's sitting in styrofoam and the sand is all glued together on top. I feel like the last two years of my life has been a lie. Where's the water been going that she was giving it? It's a succulent, so she'd be spraying it periodically, right? Oh, right. And then probably just evaporating.

Yeah. Oh, my God. Horn. Buy and sell cars in Auckland. Now, this is a Facebook page, especially for those buying or selling cars. Yeah. Skyrites, don't get all Police 107 on me,

but does anyone have a car they want to swap for two plants? Now, these aren't fake succulents that sit on the green screen. It's like those Monsteras that are selling for heaps on Trade Me. Not a Monstera, Megan, but another sort of plant that peopleas that are selling for heaps on Trade Me. Not a monstera, Megan, but another sort of plant that people pay lots of money for.

Oh, I know. Are they about three and a half? Yeah, you got it. I'm so innocent. I was just like, a monstera? They're about

three and a half months old. PMN, I'll give you the details. Now, somebody write only if they're monsteras. But other people

want to see pictures of these plants before they promise to buy in on this whole idea. Yeah. And finally today on the underground, I think we've done this one. So that's it. Pretty sure we did that one last time.

You're right, okay. How about the guy? Do you need a double check? Yeah, about the guy. About the guy what? Breaking into... This is on the official underground Taupo Turingi Tokoro Rotorua 2.0 page. Okay.

Does that ring a bell? Nah. And what do you do? An unknown male is broken in a back window and is currently asleep on our couch. Yeah, we did do that one. We did do that one, eh? Yeah, you should delete them after you do them. I do.

I do. I usually move them into a used folder. Oh, your foolproof systems let you down. It's really let me down. It's really let me down. If you see anything on your local Facebook page, screen cap it and send it to ours, FEMZM on Facebook.

Flesh, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. ZM. What's that sound? ZM. $100,000 secret sound With Save My Bacon ZM's $100,000 secret sound All thanks to Save My Bacon

Making borrowing better for financially responsible Kiwis Soundkeeper Gary, good morning Good morning guys, the video is out Now this is a slick video production We've really gone up haven't we? Did you use Vaughan's gimbal for this? Or did he forget to bring it in? I forgot to bring it in.

Twice. Twice. Look at Gary's face. Twice. I made you make a Siri reminder. Siri didn't remind me. You saw me make it. You always blame this on your phone.

You saw me make it and then it never popped up. But then I also saw the bit where it was snoozing because you'd obviously dismissed the reminder. I didn't dismiss it. Oh, yeah, okay. So, yeah, it's technically $63,500 because we had to hire a gimbal because Bourne didn't bring it.

See how much I could hire my gimbal out for? I was going to get it. I didn't think I was going to give it to you for free. What a sucker. There is so much in this video, Gary. Like, there are so many things that can make sound. So this video, in there somewhere is the sound. Is that what you're saying?

Definitely in there. But you've done this before. Yeah, but we've never done it with this sort of quality. It was slick production. And I like everyone at ZM sharing it because they're all excited to be in a video for once. You guys, you take it for granted. I wasn't in the video.

Is your e-bike all right? You threw it off into the distance. That was my favourite part of the video, the e-bike. I was like that's so cool. Good from you Gary, good from you. Alright, well $65,000 is up for grabs. Matt, good morning.

Hi, how are you going? Good. Now, have you seen the video Matt? Yes. Okay. Few times. Few times. People are just pouring going? Good. Now, have you seen the video, Matt? Yes. Okay. A few times. A few times. People are just pouring over that video. Now, Matt, was your guess before you saw that video in the video? I'm pretty sure it was, yeah.

Okay. All right. It was a little hard to see, but I think it was there. You think it was there. Well, that's the thing. It only needs to be in there for as long as it's in there, right? Yeah. Just a flash.

Okay. Well, this is the sound. It only needs to be in there for as long as it's in there, right? Yeah. Just a flash. Okay, well, this is the sound. It's our secret sound. $65,000, Matt, is all yours. You just have to tell us what that sound is. So I think that, so there's already been a guess for a record player, but I think that the sound of it is still a record player, but it's not the needle dropping. It's when the record gets to the end of the last track

and it just keeps on looping. Oh, yeah, you're right. It does that popping thing at the end of the record. Where was there a record player in the video, Gary? Look, I don't know. Did you see a record player, Matt? I think there was a record player in the video, Gary? Look, I don't know. Did you see a record player, Matt? I think there was a record player in the background when he was

picking up the label maker. Oh, that room was full of electronics. Oh yeah, that, I mean. Engineering room. It was hard to see, but it looked like it. But I don't know. Right, okay, alright.

Matt. That is not what the secret sound is. All right. Hey, Matt. Sorry, mate. We'll have another chance coming up at 8, then chances throughout the day. Oh, oh, oh, what?

We get a clue and a jackpot? What a guy, eh? What a guy. What a guy. What a guy. If you do say so yourself, Gary. We're already in uncharted waters at $65,000. Don't do $1,000. I'm going to be so upset with you if you do $1,000.

No, it won't be $1,000. And all I want from you guys. Oh, what are you? All I want is silence this week. So I'm going to give you a jackpot as long as you do not complain about another clue or a jackpot for the rest of the week. Do we have a deal? But it's only Tuesday.

There's definitely going to be some complaining. I think the video clue is enough for a week. I think that's enough for people to pour over. You can eat your fill on the video, can't you? Sure. Okay, well, you've got some silence from me, Gary, if we have a jackpot now. I'm going to wait to see what the jackpot is. No, okay, fine.

Deal. Deal. Deal. Deal. Deal. How much? I was practicing. $70,000.

Yes. And one day's free rent on Vaughn's gimbal. Wait, someone else gets my gimbal. Or you get my gimbal. No, no, someone else gets it. $70,000. It's our current jackpot for ZM Secrets. And all thanks to Save My Back and Making Borrowing Better

for financially responsible Kiwis. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. An American man, Pat, he was on a domestic flight in the US. He was on his laptop. And he looks to have been doing some work on his laptop. Okay. Maybe not important.

Yeah, but it looks like he wasn't just like watching something. Like actually doing work. Yeah, right. Now, he had the tray table down and the laptop sat atop the tray table. However, the top of the laptop screen in an open position looks to have been under the gap left by a lowered laptop table. The tray table. Where the tray table goes into the contour of the seat.

Yeah, so when it goes up, it goes flat. But when it's down, there's a gap there, and his computer looks to have gone into that gap. So when the person in front of him in seat 13A reclined quickly, the laptop screen was caught between the top of the seat coming down and the table which doesn't move

and it smashed the screen. Now, the internet's divided over whose fault this is and who should pay. He messaged Delta Airlines, this is the plane that he was on, saying maybe have a little warning sign or some way of preventing my laptop from being destroyed when the person in front of me reclines their seat.

So the big debate online is who pays for the laptop? Him, because it's his laptop, or the recliner who reclined their seat. Yep. So I was going to say, what about travel insurance? But you're travelling domestically, but then maybe your contents insurance? Maybe your contents insurance. Would pay for that, but then, I don't know. That's tough because I would say the person who destroyed it generally would pay for it,

but they technically weren't really doing anything wrong. And they didn't see. And you are entitled to recline. Yeah. Let's see. Man, 2020 has been a year for the recline debate, hasn't it? Yeah. Already.

Like it's only the 3rd of March and this is our second big recline debate. Yeah. Worldwide recline debate. I, before I recline, and I'll always recline slowly, but I'll always have a cheeky look behind me because you need to see who you're reclining into. Are you reclining into a patched gang member? Yeah.

You know? Are you reclining into one of the New Zealand breakers who for some reason hasn't joined the rest of his teammates in business class? To be fair. And a six foot nine is in... If there was a really tall person behind me, I probably wouldn't recline.

I'd be reluctant. Like, there's nothing better when you think, I'm going to recline. You have a little look around and it's a little old lady. Yeah, little old lady. And you're like, yes. I'm reclining. Room to spare.

Yeah, and then you just slowly do it because I feel if you're aggressive, then that's also you're setting an aggressive tone. But if you just, I always recline slowly. Someone spilled my drink once reclining in a jerky manner. Yeah. But in terms of who should pay for the broken laptop, well, this is what Delta Airline said.

Thank you for writing. I'm sorry your laptop was broken due to another passenger reclining on your seat. It's not fair when one person's behaviour affects another person. Please know that personal property damage in flight as a result of a passenger accident is not reimbursable. I would have just said... Not our problem. We regret that the inconvenience this has caused you.

As a goodwill gesture, I'll be adding 7,500 bonus miles to your account, which is the equivalent of a $75 gift card. Please, thank you. And Pat, who had his laptop smashed, said he was even angrier after that because it felt like that's the explanation you'd give to a six-year-old.

Yeah, like don't give someone a $65 voucher for a MacBook Pro. Yeah. You know, like just don't even give them anything. Now, should he have, we don't know even if he tucked it into the gap or when the recline started to happen because it comes back and down that it caught the top of the laptop. Yeah.

I'm also kind of like, you know that there's the, you know that the seat reclines, so you know that there was the potential. I've actually had this happen, but luckily they reclined slowly and it didn't catch. A slow recline. But, and from that moment if i ever do put my laptop up i'm always wary of that yeah like i'll always tuck it in don't tuck it in um we asked on our uh instagram uh poll should who should pay for the laptop repair 38 say that the laptop owner should pay 62 62% say the recliner should pay.

But initially, that's what I thought. But if you put yourself in the seat of the recliner and you recline and it breaks someone's laptop, are you going to pay? No. You'd be like, that's not my fault. That's not my fault. No way.

Everybody's looking at it from the point of the person with the broken laptop. Like being like, oh my God, that's awful. I would want my laptop replaced. This is for people. Actually, it is women who wear makeup in the workplace. It can do a lot for your confidence, maybe. I always find if I wear less makeup, people are like, are you okay?

You don't look well. Are you tired? Like, no, I just didn't put eyeliner on today. I haven't said that to you, have I? Yes. I said that to you the other week, but you weren't, but remember your face was puffy. That's why I said it. I wasn't very well. That's right, yeah. So I was right. It was a genuine concern.

It was a genuine concern. But studies have found that those people who wear makeup are found to be paid higher than those who don't. But it's all down to how you apply it. Right. Because there's another study that has found if you cake it on,

if you're wearing heavy makeup, I don't know how to define that. Oh, we know those people. We've seen them. Yeah. You feel like you could just run your fingernail down and there'd be like a centimetre crater. And they're always going to be closer in the mirror, like putting that on, seeing that it's really thick.

Yeah. How much money would you spend? Like festy makeup. Because it's all relative, right? Like the makeup you might wear to a festival. You mean like lots of glitter or something? Yeah. That would be considered heavy if it was in the workplace.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, but I think they're meaning caked on, aren't they? Yeah. Not turning up to work with glitter and a butterfly on your cheek. And some nipple covers. Yeah, you've got to. Be like, hello, Mr. Stevenson, I've got terrible news. Your wife's got cancer.

And he's like, should you be dressed like that? You're an oncologist. Well, you know, dress to the job you want. A festival guy. A festival guy. A Coachella influencer. Yeah. So, yeah, those who wear makeup to the workplace get paid more on average.

But those women who cake it on, it's found they don't have... Or it's perceived that they don't have strong leadership abilities. So they won't do as well in the workplace. Just because, I don't know, people are just looking at them being like, party animal or fester goer. You can't lead this team because you can't put your makeup on properly. I don't know. It's very bizarre.

But, yeah, just be careful. The male equivalent would be a beard. Yeah, right. Bit of facial hair. Yep. Bit of power. Too much, you're homeless. Biker gang homeless.

Yeah, yeah. Do you know what I'm saying? It's all about finding that middle ground. So is that like saying the more makeup you wear, the less seriously you'll be? Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier. As at Herald's new podcast, The Front Page, is your short, sharp daily news podcast.

Yeah. Once you get past the perfect. Yeah. Maybe I would be a good team leader, but I also like false eyelashes and a smoky eye. Maybe you're going to have to work harder to prove it, right? Yeah, right. Once you prove it.

I don't want to be a team leader. Too hard, eh? Just by the way, no, too much work. It's time to don those false eyelashes there. Welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast, brought to you by McCafe, for great barista-made coffee on the go. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

ZM. News overnight that New York now seeing in some parts scenes like we saw in New Zealand on Saturday of supermarkets being pillaged. Oh, God. It would be even scarier in a big city where you've seen it be destroyed by aliens and movies. Like it would actually be, right?

Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, I think they had their first confirmed case in New York and, yeah, pictures coming out of their first confirmed case in New York. And yeah, pictures coming out of there overnight with stores being emptied. Right. Huge lines at supermarkets. Thank God they've got their toilet paper. Yeah.

Well, like we said yesterday when we spoke. To Susie. Yeah. Susie Wiles. Who's an expert on. Microbiologist. She's a microbiologist. Yeah. Fascinating person.

Oh, that was. I could have talked to her about it for ages. I said, so you don't study viruses, you study bacteria. She was very impressed. But then she said that she only studies the bad bacteria, right? Not the good bacteria because she's got to learn how to stop the bad bacteria because we all take antibiotics,

and we're going to need something else to stop them. She was very calming, I think, put a lot of people's minds at ease because we don't need to panic. But then yesterday online I saw somebody packing us over in a full hazmat suit with a mask on. See, I almost think they shouldn't let those people in. Unless they were...

Because they're just going to create panic. You're just being stupid. It's a waste of time. 100%. I hope you come into contact with someone doing that. Oh, I would absolutely. I would rip them. And then they're like,

sorry, man, I was just on the way home from taking a spessoslet of a reading. I forgot I had my outfit on. I'd cough near them. Oh, my God. So there's survival experts that talk about what you'd really actually need if you were going to start a little emergency kit. Because it is good to be prepared in the

instance. Like we're out of an emergency or a natural disaster. Or that you do need to be in your home for two weeks self-isolating. You should be ready for that, sure. But the world isn't going to stop yet. If you can do online shopping at like Countdown or New World I wouldn't even get much. The world isn't going to stop yet. If you can do online shopping at like Countdown and New World,

I wouldn't even get much. Yeah. They'll come and drop that off at your door. Yeah. And you don't have to cough on them and they can just drive. Even at the end of the driveway, if you know when they're going to be there, you can go and get it and you can have all your stuff. One thing people said is often forgot about is pet food.

Do you have enough pet food for three weeks? Nope. If you've got pets. I mean, if you don't have pets, probably waste time having pet food. I mean, how hungry are you going to get? Eat your pets. Yeah, they can eat it. People say... Your dog wouldn't even do one meal.

What? What, to eat her dog? He was meaning eat the pet food, weren't you? I was meaning eat the pet food. Oh, yeah, but then if that runs out and it does get end of the world-ish. Absolutely no way I would eat my dog, ever. I'd starve to death. I wouldn't eat my dog.

Let's just skin him. There's not, mate. It's rubbish. It's a rubbish dog. He's easily bigger than a chicken. Could he fit in a crock pot? Why are we discussing this? You don't think he'd fit in a crock pot, eh?

No, he wouldn't fit in a crock pot. He would. He would fit in a crock pot. Don't he wouldn't fit in a crockpot. He would. He would fit in a crockpot. Don't. Take the head off. Don't. Give me. Vaughn's doing charades of now how he would.

What's the nice way of putting it? Anyway. Anyway. My gosh. But no, that's a good point. Push came to shove. I know he's only ever been fed the best. So, pet food.

Yeah. People forget the pet food. People forget the pet food. People forget the pet food. Yeah, and someone said, aim for something for about two or three weeks. That's what Susie said yesterday as well. Buying eight years worth of toilet papers is really not doing anybody any favours.

No. If you've only got limited room to store it, you're taking up a lot of storage space because toilet paper does take up a fair bit of room. It's just such an odd thing to be concerned about. Yeah, especially because you could always improvise or shower. You know what I mean? Straight from the toilet to the shower.

I've lived in a flat. I've lived in a flat. It wasn't even an outbreak. We're just too cheap to pay for toilet paper. I never spent toilet to shower. Now, I know that's gross, but we were 19-year-old men and we were boys and we were all in the same house. Okay.

Of all just boys. Well, anything else that we should be... So, apparently, people were grabbing perishables, not knowing the difference between perishables and... And non-perishables. And non-perishables. People grabbing milk and being like, I'll just keep it cold. You can keep it cold, but it's still going to go off.

So you need things like your noodles, your pasta, rice, tin foods. Well, how long does UHT milk last? No, UHT milk would be a better milk purchase because that would last a little bit longer. Well, I don't want to give you tips because I'm going to survive in a disaster. If not everyone can be smart, that's not my problem. On to survival of the fittest, baby. Survival of the fittest.

Yeah, no, you're not wrong. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. It's always good to see supportive parents helping out their kids if their kids have got a dream to achieve. An Auckland father who used to work in the film industry has hired a professional director

to launch his 10-year-old daughter's career as a YouTuber. Now, that's great, but I don't know if I would have told the internet this. No, I wouldn't either. Because, like, there's going to be some scathing comments on that. Scathing comments, but it's also a way of getting the role out there. So more and more people hear about it and more people apply, and then he can obviously get the...

How much would you get as a director? I don't know. Because would you have to be a bit creative? Would you be helping with the creative ideas or is that all her? No, no, no. It says that they'll be asked to generously write, shoot and edit the videos. Right. What? For TikTok, YouTube? YouTube specifically.

Right. Okay. Yeah. For TikTok, you just need to press record and do the dance thing. Yeah, right. And get just need to press record and do the dance thing. Yeah, right. And get somebody else to press record and then get someone to press stop when you do the jump and you change clothes. Right. But if your kid's like, this is what I really want to do and you have the means to pay for someone to do it, you know, just...

Why not? I don't know. I don't know if I would begrudge Lawrence, my fictitious son, if he was like... Oh, you'd definitely hire a director for Lawrence. Yeah. He'd have a full-on shoot. But it was like when we were kids on TV,

if you watched Ninja Turtles, you wanted to be a Ninja Turtle. But now kids just watch YouTubers. Yeah. So they want to be YouTubers. And then there are actual real people who have actually done it themselves. So it seems like an achievable thing. Well, yeah, because it's very impossible to become a turtle, isn't it?

A fighting, crime-fighting turtle. Well, so I'm finding. I've been trying for some 30 years to find the ooze that will turn me into a ninja turtle. And as yet, I have not found it. Well, you're good on the dad for supporting his daughter. Who says that's not like a good hobby? Because they pay, like parents pay a lot of money for kids to get into sports.

Yeah. And then this kid is wanting to do different kind of creative art. I would imagine this would be cheaper than a full-blown equestrian kid. Oh, yeah. The horses, all the gears, upkeep of a horse, the vet, the blacksmith, the everything. And there's potential to make money. You look at a horse and somehow money gets out of your wallet. Yeah.

Like, I don't even know how that works. That's the magic of horses. Like, that would be a better investment, wouldn't it? Investing in your kid being a YouTube sensation rather than riding horses. Get a bit of kickback. Well, unless they become a really top jockey. That's true. Be making some money. You they become a really top jockey. That's true. Be making some money.

You've got to be little. Yeah. I know, did you ever take up anything that your parents had? I took up everything for real short periods of time. Me too. If it was a sport, my parents never really said no because they wanted us to just not be sitting, I guess. They wanted you moving.

If we were out of the house, we weren't eating a whole bag of farm-baked biscuits, as previously mentioned in the show, and drinking two litres of milk every day. Well, can we take some calls this morning on 0800-DARNES-AT-M-9696? Those hobbies or things that you got into as a kid that your parents funded. And bonus points if you just, I don't know,

they bought you all the gear and then you're like, I'm not into this. Well, they bought you a guitar and then dad just cringed every time you played and was like, shut up. You're like, well, I'm never going to get good like this. Did that happen? Yeah. Plus, I also found it really hard, like I wanted long nails. I found it really hard to like hold the cords on the fret. So how long did it go from him buying the guitar to you giving it up?

Maybe a month. How much was that guitar? Oh, he bought me a reasonably cheap one. I got an electric guitar. Did you? But then I still, so I went to classical guitar lessons, but then had an electric guitar and you can't play like the Streets of Laredo or Edelweiss on an electric guitar and make it sound cool.

How long did that go from you getting a guitar to you giving it up? Not that long. Two months? Oh, no, no, it was longer than that. Six. But then they'd be like, oh, play it on the electric guitar and it would just sound like ridiculous. We want to know about what hobby your parents have bankrolled

that cost them a fortune that maybe you weren't into for that long. Nicola, it was horses, wasn't it? Yeah. How much do you reckon your parents spend, and how long did you do it for? Oh, my God. I have done it for quite a couple of years, but I'm 23 now.

I've still got the horses, and I haven't ridden since I was 18. So what do you do? Do you just look at them? I just look after them. Like, I don't know, they're more pets than anything. But you have to go out and feed them and like the vet bills still come and... Yeah, I don't pay that. Wow, they're expensive pets, aren't they? Yeah, yeah.

Tell me about it. You've not even chucked a saddle over one and rode it around a paddock? I did it like last year for like five minutes. I just never had the time. I moved out of the like, I moved away and left

them there and now I've just moved back. And now, I don't know. It sounds like a lot of effort. It sounds like a lot of effort, doesn't it? So who's footing the bill, Mum and Dad? Sorry? Who's footing the bill? Who's paying for them?

It's a mixture of both of them. My dad doesn't really want me to get rid of them. But you're not paying, so who cares? No, no, no. I think I paid for hay once. I love it. Dad, let me chip in. I'll buy some hay.

Connor, what did your parents fund? What hobby? So it's not me, it's my brother-in-law. When he was younger he used to go to those sailing courses down the local marinas and stuff like that. And he was really, really good at it. So his parents thought, well, you're so good at it,

we'll buy you a little sailing boat and all the kit and the trailer. And I think he used it once and gave up on it and didn't like it anymore, didn't want to go, didn't refuse to do it. That's the problem. Mum and Dad would have seen Russell Coates on the news. They would have brought him to America Cup. Fever, baby! Yeah, and they thought, well, he's got a rich big mansion.

Dean Barker, see all the success. Brad Butterworth got that sweet payout. Yeah, so they thought, we'll buy little Timmy a trailer and a boat. A little boat and a trailer. Didn't work out, did it? All right. Speaking of. Thanks, Connor.

Trailers. Somebody said, Grandad once bought me a race go-kart with a trailer, spare parts and everything. When I hadn't driven it after a week, he took it back and sold it. Oh! Did you give him very long? That could have just been a busy week. Yeah. I was a figure skater for 10 years.

We worked at the, it was about a minimum $1,000 a month, plus travel for competitions. Mum told me that's why my brother got braces and I have crooked teeth. It's figure skating or braces. Yeah. French was great. I learned French in school and outside of school. Wanted to be an artist, so took all the related subjects of school,

did outside tutoring. Went on a student exchange that cost thousands of dollars to France and threw it all in. That was it. Yeah, right. Didn't want to speak French, didn't want to do art. Probably went to France and met them.

It's just something cool you... That'll put you off. You want to do it at school, right? You're like, I just want to speak French. Yeah. And then you realise it's so hard. I didn't want to do languages. I didn't want to speak French.

Speak French. I didn't want to do languages in France. Speak for me. I didn't want to do languages at school because it always seemed hard. It was hard. Yeah, because I did French the first year of high school. Jim and Pal.

Yeah. Megan. And I was like, this is not for me. This is not. No. And plus, we went to New Plymouth Boys High.

We weren't doing a field trip to France. So I was like, well, no, I'm not into this. We don't get a free trip to France not doing it. No, where does... Well, I'm not into this. We don't get a free trip to France. Not doing it. No, where does... Well, I think our French,

if you did it all the way through, you got to go to Tahiti, which was the cheaper version, but they speak French there. Or Noumea or... I think New Caledonia. Yeah, one of the French-speaking Pacific Islands.

Yeah, yeah. And everyone was like, oh, this is going to be great. And they got back and they were like, we got absolutely mauled by mosquitoes. I think they took us to a French bakery or a cafe and that was like not the same. Lovely. Run by like some local shaz. And they were like, we got absolutely mauled by mosquitoes. I think they took us to a French bakery or a cafe.

And that was like not the same. Lovely. Run by like some local Shaz. Bonjour. Buongiorno. Well, that's Italian. Is it? All right.

I'm trying. I'm trying my best. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Fletch is angry about something. He's upset. Oh, no, I'm not angry.

Is this the time going? I could... Disappointed. More notice a comment I made on Instagram. And we'd like to... I can't believe you made that comment. Like, I just... No, you know what? One of your friends...

I wasn't alone. A lot of people liked this Instagram comment. And we'll deal with this soon in the segment, Don't Get Fletch Started. I also want to talk about Skittles. This has broken my heart. Megan saw something online and she's heartbroken. I'm absolute.

That's one of my favourite lols. And I'm real upset. Like your life's been a lie up to this point? Okay. It feels like that. Sam's. $100,000 Secret Sound. With Save My Bacon. Thanks to Save My Bacon making borrowing better for financially responsible Kiwis.

And the jackpot, if you've just joined us, is now $70,000 Soundkeeper Gary. 70 grand, that's crazy, isn't it? That's so much money. So the most money we've ever given away with Secret Sound is 50. 50,000 at once. This is, we haven't done this. More than that. It's life changing.

It is more than that. Imagine just getting 70,000. Hey, kids, 70,000 is more than 50. But that's life changing. That's a house deposit. That's in some parts of the country. I'm dreaming of that moment where you go on your phone

to check your bank statements and you refresh it and then all of a sudden it's like from zero to $70,000. Megan's just spending that money on her head. It'd be pretty quickly back to zero

if it was Megan's money. It would be. Joining us to play for it was Megan's magazine. It would be. Joining us to play for $70,000, Chris, good morning. Good morning. While you're on hold there, were you spending that $70,000 in your head? What would you do with it? Literally planning it out. Me too.

Planning out how I'm going to divvy it out to my workmates. Oh. We've got a combined guess, so. Oh, we'll just say yes until you win it and then disappear. How many workmates would you have to split this $70,000 with? Two. There's three of us, so. Okay, that's not too bad.

That's still a good, I can't divide that by three, but it would be a lot. Well, we've decided we're going to go on a cruise, so we're going to just put in them for annual leave today. Who knows? $13,333. Tell you what, there'll be some cruise specials around at the moment. We will be getting the drinks package. $23,000.

Yeah. Idiot. No. Yeah, $23,000 and a little bit. Sorry, Chris, just doing some maths on the fly there. All right, so this is the secret sound. Now, your workmates, you've all got together. This is what you all think it is. Yeah. All right, so this is the secret sound. Now, you're workmates. You've all got together.

This is what you all think it is? Yeah. Okay. We're pretty, yeah. Well, for the three of you, you and your workmates, $70,000. What do you think the secret sound is? Is it correction tape? Like the twink stuff?

You know, the wipeout stuff? Like twink, but the roll out. Yeah. Right. It does sound like it when you do it. Like, it does sound like it. Do you know when you get to the end of the correction tape, so it's like you put it down, you swipe,

and then it gets to the end and it goes, because you heard it. Okay. Now, for those that don't know Gary, Soundkeeper Gary, you posted the video last night, ZM Facebook page, ZM Online. Yes. It's a long video, but in that video somewhere is what makes the secret sound. Look, I didn't do a stock take with every single item that's in the video.

You made sure there was lots of items in there, though. Yeah, but there obviously is a possibility, being in an office, that there's stationery everywhere. Did you see correction tape in that video, Chris? We did. And then there's just that episode, like that clue that has the episode to, um, what's it? Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Yeah, and so we thought, well, they're correction officers, so maybe it's like kind of... Oh, okay, okay. You guys have dug out homework. You're on track. I've seen the secret stuff. I always considered... Maybe you saw it before it was twinked out or, you know. I always considered a correction officer

someone that worked at a prison rather than a law enforcement officer. Okay, well, Soundkeeper Gary. Chris. I'll give you $1,000 right now. Fuck's sake. Sorry.

Chris, Chris. Chris, you're just going to have to put $1,000 in the swear jar. That was the most aggressive F word that's ever slipped out. Usually people are like, I mean, it's not the first time Gary's heard it. Usually people accidentally drop that in,

but you really emphasise that. No, I'm pretty confident. Chris, this is official. $1,000 right now. I'll give it to you if I can buy your guess and we don't play it. $1,000 towards your cruise.

No. They've not even got to get us a drink package. No. She gibbers. Last chance. Nah, I'm pretty confident. Chris.

Yeah. That is not the secret sound. No! That's not. No! Did I say no to the thousand? I totally meant yes.

I like it, Chris. You're fun, Chris, but you and your workmates are going to have to go back to the drawing board because that is not the secret sound. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast, ZM. I'm all started. I'm all started. I'm all started. Don't get Fletch started. Don't get Fletch started. The Podcast ZM. Well, I know what this is about. I made an Instagram comment.

But the comment heralded a lot of likes. I tell you Instagram comment. But you're not, you, the comment heralded a lot of likes. I tell you, I'm not alone in this. I think people will be on my side

with this life annoyance. Well, the annoyance that annoyed you so much popped up on Clint from Brand Clint and just from Clint's life,

Clint. Yeah. His Instagram page where his daughter, Tui, and his wife, Lucy, are watching The Washing Machine. That was a beautiful moment. Harmless. When I watched The Wiggles, we watched The Washing. Yeah.

That was what it said. It was cute. Cute video of his daughter watching The Washing. That's not what I'm doing. I saw Tui and Lucy and them look at each other and I was like, man, that's cute. Was it? Was it? Of his daughter watching the washing. That's not what I noticed. I saw Tui and Lucy and them look at each other and I was like, man, that's cute. Mother-daughter bonding. Yeah, Clint gave a little whistle, Tui turned around. I was like, what a cute little video.

Dad's there to witness it. Not what Fletch immediately noticed. Not what you noticed. Not what I noticed. I noticed they left the energy-saving stickers on the washing machine. Peel them off. If I'm in a dairy and they've still got the cover on the FPOS machine, I'll

unpeel it. What if you're in a dairy and they've put a new cover over the FPOS terminal? No, I'm not talking about a homemade glad wrap one. No, I don't like when they homemade glad wrap the FPOS, but if they've got the display sticker or I see one, I'll peel it off. I don't care. People don't like when you do that. You were a troll though

online and you said it in a troll though Online And you said it In a comment How about you say it To the face Of the person involved Clint joins us On the phone Oh good morning

Good morning Clint Yeah hi Literally I put the post up I was like This is an adorable Family moment That I'm choosing

To share with the world Literally the first comment Peel your energy Stickers off Immediately OMG Take Peel your energy stickers off. Immediately. OMG, take those energy saving stickers off immediately. 36 likes and there were comments saying, I agree.

Yeah, well, big whoop-de-doo. Like, seriously, first of all, they don't come off when you try and peel them off. I've told him that before. I've tried to take my energy stickers off. You need to solve it. You've got to do it early. You've got to do it when you first get the machine. If you leave them on, trust me, I've told him that before. I've tried to take my energy stickers off. You need to solve it. You've got to do it early. You've got to do it

when you first get the machine. If you leave them on, trust me, I've left them on too long. The sun kills them. And people that leave them on their toilets, you know,

they have them on the cistern, the water saving. Not the toilet. Or people that leave them on their TVs. Oh God. Yeah, what about this though? Here's another theory.

So our washing machine, and our dryer, it's fairly new, and it's a seven-star energy-rated dryer. It's so efficient, they had to add an extra row of stars. Oh, that's so exciting. So what if I'm actually leaving it on there as like a bit of a flex?

Like a humble brag. Yeah. Like, oh, I'm saving the environment. And then when you go to resell it, if you want to get a new one, then you can show everyone the energy rating. Yeah, seven stars. Nah, see, if I turned up after buying that on Trade Me,

I'd be straight back out the door. But I'm not buying something with those caked on for the last three years. Well, they'll be on there forever. Is that the dryer that your daughter's watching? Well, it sits on top of the washing machines at the bottom, which is, let me just count. I'm actually looking at it right now. Oh, no, you've got the same dryer as me.

You're going to have to ring them back in two years and get the thing replaced. Oh, not even two years, same dryer as me, that thing. It's a known issue, though. I can't claim you brought a terrible dryer there. It's a Fisher & Paykel. I thought I bought a good one. Nah, it's a known issue.

When you ring up and say, I've got all one of your dryers, and it's making this whirring, funny noise, they'll be like, oh, we'll be around to fix it. It's a known issue when you ring up and say I got all one of your dryers and it's making this whirring funny noise they'll be like oh we'll be around to fix it it's a known issue in their defence

they did come straight around and fix it and it is a good dryer did they replace the entire dryer nah just the known just the known issue so I was going to say

if they replaced the dryer how pissed off would Fletch be because new dryer cool but new energy star sticker no okay so have we tried Dissolve It because Dissolve It and Fletchby because new dryer, cool, but new energy star sticker. No. Okay,

so, have we tried Dissolve It? Because Dissolve It is magic liquid. No, I haven't tried Dissolve It. Have you got, do you want to come around and do it?

Do you get pleasure? You're the people who get pleasure out of peeling the sticker off. I actually probably would come around and spend all day scratching that off

with my fingernail just to get that off because it annoys me that much. Yeah, that's another thing, what you remove it with because you don't want to be taking that off and scratch the actual washing machine. Maybe I don't want to do that. Do it with your fingernail you won't. Yeah, right.

What about this, back to the original picture and my seven month old daughter watching the washing machine. What if we peeled the sticker off and it was actually the sticker that she enjoyed all along? Oh yeah, that's a good call. Fletch doesn't care. Have you met Fletch?

He has absolutely no concept of children's happiness. I didn't even see the baby or what was happening. I just saw the energy sticker immediately drawn to it and I was like, take it off. You're like a moth. Yeah, a moth to energy stickers. To be fair, when you just corrected Fletch then by when he said the baby instead of Tui,

at least he didn't say it. He's just stopped calling babies it. Well, I just think as people, we need to be aware that this annoys people, and we need to, as soon as we buy an appliance... As people, we need to be aware that it annoys you. You just take these stickers off. It's so annoying.

Oh, my God. Right. Well, I'm holding Tui at the moment, so I don't have a free hand to... And I've got the phone. I don't have a free hand to peel the stickers off. Better things to do. Come around with your Dissolve-It.

You hold Tui, and I'll take the stickers off. Dissolve-It's not cheap. Good deal. Dissolve-It's not cheap, Clint. We need some reimbursement for that. Did you miss the bit about holding Tui? Absolutely not. I didn't hear that. No you miss the bit about holding Tui? Absolutely not. I didn't hear that.

No. Clint, thank you. He doesn't want to talk anymore now that a baby's been offered to be held. Somebody said a hairdryer is the ultimate way to get those off.

And it was the hottest setting on a hairdryer and it'll peel itself off. Isn't that how your dad removes because he's signed erections by wine in Nelson. Yeah, if you heat it up.

If it's a vinyl, it'll peel off. But I don't want to peel it off now. I want to keep it there just because I know. Fctions by Wayne and Nelson. Yeah, if you heat it up. If it's a vinyl, it'll peel off. But I don't want to peel it off now. I want to keep it there just because I know. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Just been asked the most infuriating question.

I don't know why. The minute I asked this, my blood immediately boiled. Megan looked at me and in all honesty was saying, Vaughan, are you familiar with Skittles? No, I mean, they might not be everyone's bag. Some people might not eat Skittles. We all know Skittles taste the rainbow. But like, it's one of my favourites.

I'm very familiar with how each one tastes. I'm an M&M's guy. Me too. If it comes to a hard-coated candy, I'm far more an M&M's guy. All the M&M's too. I like the peanut M&M's, I like the crispy M&M's, I like the peanut M&M's. I like the crispy M&M's. I like the caramel M&M's. I like the chocolate M&M's. Maltesers.

No, shut up. I'm not talking about Maltesers. We're doing some hard graft on M&M's here. I love the mixed bags. How good's that? You don't know what you're getting here in the movies. It's dark, baby. Pour it in my hand. Chuck it in my mouth. But if I, like I would much prefer lollies than, I'm ignoring that, than chocolate lollies.

Yeah. So Skittles are my jam. I don't like Skittles. That's the good thing about the M&M's. It's a lolly and it's chocolate. Yeah. It's a one-stop shop. It's just chocolate.

No, it's got a candy coating. So, okay, this is what I found online and it's broken my heart and I've got some Skittles because I need to test it out. Skittles? What are they? Hello, my name's Vaughan. I grew up on an Amish reserve. I have no idea about your modern conveniences.

What is the yellow? What's the flavour of the yellow Skittle? Banana. No. Yeah, pineapple. Pineapple. Lemon. See, you're not familiar with Skittles.

Asbestos. You're not familiar. That was my question. Okay. It's lemon. So, apparently, each Skittle is the same flavour. Yeah, I was going to's lemon. So apparently each Skittle is the same flavour. Yeah, I was going to say lemon. I was like, I don't know.

I thought they were just all the same. Absolutely not. No. That's why you can pour them all in your mouth at once and there's no intermingling of flavours. Purple is grape. Grape. Grape. Purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, purple, yellow, yellow, red, red, strawberry.

Green is green apple, red is strawberry, and orange is orange. There's no point in having a green apple if you can't have a red apple. They taste different because I always eat the purple and the red. They don't taste different though. They do. Okay, for example, have you ever had a few of those, you know, those mini jelly beans and they're all different flavours and you put those in your mouth all at once and it's yuck.

It's cross-contamination. Go to executive producer, Anya. She is a fan of Skittles too. We've bonded over our love of Skittles. Okay. Do they taste different? I believe so, yes. No, they don't.

It's in your head. You all bought into the propaganda. Absolutely do. It was like the taste of the rainbow made us think it was all different. But if you think about what does a rainbow taste like? Nothing. All the same. I've never licked one. Have you? I don't know. Actually, Megan's got

you on a point there. I have. I sprayed a garden hose in the air and a rainbow came and I was like and it tasted just like plain garden hose water. In sunlight. Good. Okay. Well, you can comment.

So here's the thing. An article has been put out and says In sunlight. Good, okay. Well, no, you can comment there. So here's the thing. An article has been put out and says that all the Skittles taste the same. The reason you think they taste different is because you look at the colour and you're told what they are on the back. Your brain's doing the hard yards. So I've got a blindfold. Okay. Since I'm the most familiar with Skittles, shall I do it?

Okay, and then shall I pick which colour to give you? Oh, can you not use your fingers? I don't know where your hands have been. Do you have some gloves? That's good thinking with the current climate. Yes. Wash your hands. Okay, I've washed my hands.

Have we got... You're my child. You washed your hands today? Yep. When? Just now. You haven't left my... I love this lie because they think I can get away with it.

But I tell you what, the bigger lie is when you're a parent and you say, well, let? Just now. You haven't left my... I love this lie because I think I can get away with it. But I tell you what, the bigger lie is when you're a parent and you say, well, let me smell them. And they're immediately like, oh, no, I'll go wash them. I don't know, unless you can smell some soap straight away. That's a great parent lie that you can smell a dirty hand. I've got a blindfold on. Okay, what I'll do is I'll shake one into your hand so that I'm not touching you.

But is it like an M&M? Is the shell added separately? So I believe... Who are you? I'd not touching you. But is it like an M&M? Is the shell added separately? So I believe, I'd say it is. Stand by, Megan. Hang on, I'm just going to get one in there. Okay, I've put one into me. What colour is that board? Don't tell me.

Show me. Oh, I know. Okay, yep. Okay, go. Now, what colour? It's grape. It's a purple, blue. What about purple? Did you look at that, though? No,? It's grape. It's a purple blue. What about purple?

Did you look at that, though? No, it tastes like grape. Well, then you're lying. They obviously do put flavour in them. Do another one. It was grape. That was brown. Yeah, but that's why I asked.

Oh, are you colourblind? Actually, no, that's probably why I gave that away, didn't I? By saying, because we were confused about what colour that was. Did I? That's purple, Vaughan. It's not brown. Okay, I've given you another one. Go.

Now, don't look. Shut your eyes. I've got a blindfold on. Yeah, but you could be peeping. You should have had a palate cleanse. What colour was that one? Um. Yeah, so you don't know, do you?

You don't know. Is it raspberry? She doesn't know. Is it red? It was red, yes. It was a school of red. Okay, I'm pretty good at this game. Let it raspberry? She doesn't know. Is it red? It was red, yes. I'm pretty good at this game. Let's do this again then. They do taste similar

now. I can't see though. But what's the... Is it just the flavoured shell? Did you just spit that out? There's children starving in Africa who would love a Skittle. I coughed. Oh god, you coughed? Oh god, she coughed? You touched her hand. Okay.

You see what colour it is? Okay, different one now. Lemon. Yeah, see, they must have flavouring in them. Yeah, okay, good. Wait, where does this article come from? NPR. America, it's from America.

Oh, is it? Do you think they've got a different ingredient? This is made in Australia. Maybe they don't have flavour on their Skittles. Have you ever tried their Twizzlers? They taste like rubber.

Nothing on red licorice. It's just red licorice. Sorry, Amish worn hair. I don't know what a Twizzler is. Just red licorice. Also, how funny is this joke? The M&M packet comes on the back with a peel and reseal thing.

Like no one's ever sitting down and just been like, no, that'll be enough Skittles for today. I'll save half of these for tomorrow. They put that on their big blocks of chocolate too. Make sure you share this. It's like, what are you? Stop trying to be funny. Sharing it?

There's no one else in the car and I'm crying. I'll eat this whole block of chocolate if I want. I'll share it with my range of emotions that are currently flooding over me. Well, there you go. You've disproved that, Megan. Somebody said American Skittles are different. Oh, thank God.

We should have just Googled one more thing before we went to air with that. We just wasted a whole radio segment on that. I should go and eat some lollies. Flesh, fauna, Megan. The podcast. ZM. Fact of the day. Day, day, day, day.

Today's fact of the day is that in 1998, Sony released a Handycam. Okay. This Handycam, I can tell you a bit about the Handycam. It had a 560-time digital zoom, which if you don't remember digital zoom, kids, it was where for like the first five zoom-ins it was like fine, and then from that it was just a pixelated mess. Sure, it was really close, but it was basically just like cropping

an already low-res image and trying to make it the just a pixelated mess. Shoes really close, but it was basically just like cropping an already low-res image and trying to make it the size of a billboard. It was very, it had a little flip outside. Oh, yeah, okay. That's what made it the handy cam, right? You could just hold it in one hand. In the hand and you could flip open that thing and you could steady shot. Ooh.

But it was the night shot, the night vision mode that really- So what year was this? 1998. Okay, that's some fancy tech for then, isn't it? Well, they always had that ability on earlier cameras and stuff. Expensive, though. Like, they were the high-end cameras, but this was on a handicap. And they used infrared to be able to see at night.

However, the infrared that they used made dark clothes, like swimsuits, transparent in front of the camcorders as it went on an infrared wave. And because swimsuits are so thin, yet dark, it would go on an infrared wave and you'd see right through. You could see. So they made a handy cam you'd see right through. You could see. So they made a handy can that could see through clothing. Yes.

Hello. Yes. Whoopsies. So those people at the airport that get to scan you and those, you put your arms up and they go whoosh. And then they're all having a laugh at your junk. And then as they come through. It's just an outline, isn't it?

Yeah, I think they took that away. They used to be able to see your penis, but they can't now. Because, yeah, it's just like an outline of it, and it'll show spots of where there might be metal or something, right? Yeah, or you might have a metal zipper or a piece of paper you lift in your pocket. Yeah. So the camcorder was immediately recalled. However, it was a voluntary recall basis.

So anybody in that time knew that they had a camera that could see through people's clothes. They weren't so quick to send them back. And here's the weird thing about it. This was 1998, so fledgling days of the internet. Websites started popping up where people would have the Sony and they would take photos of people in public and put them on the web. Wow. have the Sony and they would take photos of people in public and put them on the web. Oh, no.

Of like people they'd seen through the clothes of using their Sony Handycam. So obviously since then, night vision and those sorts of things have been regulated a little bit more. Yeah. No one wants to be releasing the PervCam 5000. Yeah. I mean, with all that digital zoom and the ability to see through clothes, that was a peeping Tom's perfect weapon, wasn't it?

It was, wasn't it? Yeah. So today's fact of the day is in 1998, Sony accidentally released a handy cam with night vision that could see through people's clothes. Fact of the day, day, day, yeah, I'm going lads. Oh, lads trip. Lads, lads, lads. One of my best mates has bought a house with his lovely

partner and they're having a housewarming and I said I'll be keen to come to this and then I said to Sade, do you want to come? And she said, no, you go. Lads. You go have a lads weekend. Lads, lads, lads. Well, it won't be lads. There's these laddies. Yeah. Lads and laddies. Right. So that's fine. You're going to have a lads weekend. Lads, lads, lads. Well, it won't be lads. There's these laddies. Yeah.

Lads and laddies. Right. So that's fine. You're going to Wellington for a housewarming. Yeah. Because flights are cheap. Yeah, right. And I can stay at their house.

Yeah. I'm really looking forward to it. It's going to be great. Yeah, great. Great time. Okay. And another one of our mates is going down. So there's this group of four of us, and we've got a lads chat on WhatsApp.

And it's a talk about anything. You've said before you talk about your feelings. Yeah, we talk about our feelings. We tell each other that we appreciate each other and love each other and stuff. I mean, don't get the wrong end of the stick here. It's mostly lads chat. Oh, lots of lads.

This is what it's mostly about. A fictitious podcast where we all travel to Japan. I don't even know what's happening other than we're in Japan. Right. There's lots of Land Rover chat.

Right. House chat. All the sorts of chat. Just any kind of chat. Good chat. Yeah, lads chat. Open chat. So, however,

one of us lives in the UK. Auburn lives in the UK. The one that Megan's called cute before. Yep. Thank you. He likes that. He likes every time you say he's cute. It's a good ego boost.

Okay. Because we're trying to peer pressure him into spending the New Zealand equivalent of about $3,000. To come for a housewarming. Only for the weekend too because he'd have to leave literally in two days. And that's what we're trying

to pressure him into. That he's just got to do it and leave. And he keeps sending us screenshots of, like he bought his wife flowers to try to sweeten the deal because he's got a wife

and two kids and like a full job and everything. He's got responsibilities. How ridiculous is this? Also, does he have that kind of money just to drop? Would he have to tick it this? Well, so does he have that kind of money just to drop? Would he have to tick it off?

Well, we always say, oh, well, he says he's doing all right. So we're like, well, come on, baby. Just credit card it and we'll take care of it later. We're people who are trying to do our mate. Just trying to fly halfway around the world to a housewarming. For the weekend only. No one's taking time off work while he's here, so he's going to fly in, housewarm, fly home.

Ridiculous. Flights have got to be cheap. You know how cheap flights are at the moment because of the corona panic? Yeah. And he said, well, what about corona? And I said, don't buy into the panic. Just get here. Just get here.

But maybe don't transit through some Asian airports. And it's actually nice to be dealing out the peer pressure because often I'm on the receiving end of peer pressure, especially around here. We're stubborn though. We don't cave to peer pressure. No, and the problem is the minute someone tries to put peer pressure on me now, because I was peer pressured as a teenager

and I always felt like I had to be doing dumb stuff to fit in or be cool. I make a real stand against that now. Yeah. But we're in the middle of a thorough peer pressure campaign to try to get our mate to spend like $3,000 or $4,000 to come home for a weekend. But at the moment, he hasn't. He hasn't caved, but maybe today. We're keeping on pushing, baby.

We're not giving up. But I'd love to know, when did peer pressure cost you a lot of money? Like, when did you go broke or go in? Well, that's everyone every day trying to keep up with the Joneses, isn't it? But that's a bit different. Peer pressure is when everyone else is saying, do it, do it, do it. It's not when you put it upon yourself. Come to Bali.

Come to Bali. You can't afford it, but we're all going. Come to Bali. All right. So when did peer pressure cost you a lot of money? Talking about peer pressuring, currently trying to peer pressure a mate into, excuse me, fly home to New Zealand from England

to attend a housewarming. Someone's called you bullies. Oh, yeah. So when peer pressure's not okay, you're basically bullies. But we're not because we're going to love him anyway. We're just ribbing him that he's going to miss out on all this fun. We're trying to really kickstart the FOMO early. Shelly, when did peer pressure cost you a lot of money?

It hasn't yet, but it's about to. Okay. Why? What have you been peer pressured into? My auntie has had a really rough time in life with medical issues and stuff like that, and she has decided for her 60th birthday, which she never thought she'd get to, that

the entire family is going on a cruise. Right. But you have to pay? Yes, but she's already paid the deposit. Oh. So there's no getting out of it. How are you going to say no to that as well? I'm not

going to. I'm just going to save my little ass off and see what happens. Shelley, is she an easy to scare aunt? I'm saying coronavirus is tearing through cruise ships. They're like a petri dish for it at the moment aren't they? Funnily enough, when we were talking about that last night

with my mum and it was like, oh my gosh, what's going to happen if this coronavirus really takes hold? Like, is it really like, oh, my gosh, what's going to happen if this coronavirus really takes hold? Like, is it really something that we want our auntie to go on? But my auntie's the kind of person, she'll be like, eh, let's do it. Well, yeah, she's like, well, I nearly died. Yeah, yeah, true. Like, what have I got to lose?

Every day's a bonus from here. Shelley, thanks. You called Lane. When did peer pressure cost you a lot of money? So my husband, I don't know if this counts as peer pressure, but my husband peer pressured me to go to Chicago to watch an all-elite wrestling show for our honeymoon. Well, it doesn't sound like something you wanted to do,

so I'd say yes, that's peer pressure. How did he get away with that? Well, he's really good at it. He's really good at peer pressuring me into doing things. Well, she sounds like a sales... You sound like a great sales rep. Yeah. I know.

Although, Chicago's a good city, a fun city, so at least you got to experience that. Look, we actually had a fantastic time. There you go. If you ever tell him that, I really hope he's not listening. Don't let him know. It was super great, and we had a really, really good time. We spent thousands, thousands of dollars to watch.

Well, next holiday's your choice. Exactly. You get to pick next time, Lane. Thanks for your call. Corrine, when did peer pressure cost you a lot of money? Not me, my partner. So he was the only one of his friends that owned land. So his friends peer pressured him into buying racehorses and breeding racehorses.

And so far he's bred six of them and they're all complete fakes. Oh no! That is such an... Are they chipping in? Are they paying more than their fair share? If he's providing the land... I think there's a syndicate or something that

kind of contributes towards it. But after they got him to get the racehorses, they all got jobs elsewhere and buggered off and just left him to it. He has no idea about horses at all. He just breeds them

and hopes for the best. Well, hopefully one day there'll be a winning one and then he'll be laughing. They will be because they didn't do anything and now they own a syndicate winning.

That's true. Corrine, thanks for your call.
