Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, welcome to the Fleeche Morning, Megan, with Hayley Sproul podcast by 5 McCafe Coffees. Get one free on the Maccas app. And we could be sending you this podcast intro after we've been swept away to sea. No. And the giant tsunami of 2021, just when this year you thought was getting better. No. We're going to record this and then it might just all blow over and then we're going to feel pretty silly. It's, um, it's no, there may be a bit of hurried coastal erosion, some inundation.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Yeah. But this is just one of those history bookmarks. So if you're listening to it someday in the future, you can believe, that's right, that's that day on the 5th of March 2021 where New Zealand got a tsunami alert after the Kermadec Islands had a series of pretty intense earthquakes. On the same day that we're finding out about our COVID state, which on the 5th of March 2021 is all up in the air at the moment.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Level 3 in Auckland, level 2 around the country. One of those days. What a day. Fri-yay. A good day to go home and eat junk food, I think. We were just saying before on the way to the toilet, oh, God, we wish that bakery was open across the road and we'd just get a big fat slice and sit here and gorge.
Starting point is 00:01:12 And just devour it. Is it too early to have a little bubbly? Absolutely not. You know, a little bubbly and a chalky slice. The drinks fridge at work was earmarked for there was supposed to be a thing happening at work today. I saw that. But, of course, COVID's changed and those drinks go off.
Starting point is 00:01:27 As alcohol drinks really do. Alcohol can't stay in there very long at all in the cans. No. So, yeah, it'll go off. So we best get out of here and get to drinking. And be safe this weekend, please, wherever you are. You never know when the next thing could happen. Oh.
Starting point is 00:01:44 What a way to look at life. Oh, honestly, I thought 2021 was supposed to be better than 2020. No, I think 2021's all about the curveballs. It's 2020, but we're just a bit older. And a bit worn down. Maybe a tad more anxious. Weary. A lot more tired.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Oh. Yeah. ZM. Hit music. Lives here. Fary. A lot more tired. Oh. Yeah. ZM. Hit music. Lives here. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Welcome to the show. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan with Hayley Sproul. And yeah, a restless night for a lot of North Island listeners. Yeah. This morning. So I've just pulled up the geonet. We love a bit of geonet, don't we? Yeah, it's been a while.
Starting point is 00:02:31 105 kilometres east of Te Araroa. And it was 7.1. Shaking was reported as severe, a depth of 90 kilometres. And since then, on geonet, I have counted 16 aftershocks in the same location. Wow. Ranging between 4 in the same location. Wow. Ranging between 4.4 and 5.4. And that's in the last four-ish hours. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:54 So the last aftershock was at quarter past five, 16 past five magnitude, 4.6 off the coast as well. So you guys both woke up at 2.30. Well, yeah, this was crazy. I didn't know that was the time that it happened. And then I obviously woke up and saw all the news alerts, and I was like, oh, what have I missed? But, yeah, I'd woken up at that time just after.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Wow, yeah, because I woke up and I just looked at the clock and saw that it was 2.30, and I was like, okay, that's great news. Two more, you know. And then two more hours of sleep. Yeah, but I didn't know why. I just assumed that was just... And I may have just woken up coincidentally that time. Well, yeah, a lot of people had to get up and evacuate. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:32 There were all these photos on a line of people getting in their cars and then parking up the hills and going back to sleep in their cars. I don't know if I could get back to sleep. That is such a gizzy thing to do. Get up there. Might just go back to sleep. Yeah, me too, actually. Put the seat back.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Kids, you lie flat across the bottom. Why don't you lie through the footwells? Why don't you lie flat across the seat? Someone jump on the boot. We might as well try to get some shadow. Yeah, but as you've heard Rachel say, those evacuation warnings have now been lifted, so you can return home.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Hopefully no damage. I was watching some videos of people in the area, you know, filming their stuff moving. I guess we'll get those in the next few hours when the sun comes up. And hopefully not too bad. Crazy. Alright, Secret
Starting point is 00:04:17 Sound back again. $30,000 is the jackpot. 7 o'clock and 8 o'clock with us. Your next chances. All thanks to Star. It's streaming now on Disney+. We've got the top six coming up. Yes, yesterday the Tamakes, who get far too much airtime, so we'll give them a bit more, have said they won't be getting the vaccination
Starting point is 00:04:36 or won't be in any rush to because of Jesus. Yeah. That's fair enough. They're relying on the Lord and Saviour to provide the antibodies for a virus brand new to the human species that as yet we have no antibodies ourselves for. It's been working well around the world. That approach has, you know, stood the test of time.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Yeah. I mean, they can do what they want really, can't they? If they just do it away from everyone else. Yeah, but that's a problem. And quietly. They don't. They famously departed Auckland because Sunday service was going to get cancelled and they wanted that money.
Starting point is 00:05:08 So they went to Rotorua to say, give us some of your money. Yeah. And now they're in the South Island spending that money. Great. I hope everybody's stoked. But I've got the top six other things Jesus would have done during the pandemic. Okay. Because as Hilary Barry said, Jesus would have got the jab.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah, she is betting a hundy on it. Yeah. It's just playing a game at work. Give me your iPad. I need it for communication. I smashed my phone for this place yesterday and now this is my only form of communication and these dragons ain't going to merge themselves.
Starting point is 00:05:43 You're not playing a game while you're at work. It's a game for children as well. It's not like you're playing poker. Well, it is a game for children, but they suck at it because they can't see the deeper meaning of the game. Oh, my Lord. The underlying way to get them dragons. We now have Vaughn's fully undivided attention, which is fantastic. If you've never been to Las Vegas, it's hard to explain.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Even when you see it in movies, it doesn't cover the little things, like there's slot machines in the airport. Like, yeah. It's glitzy and glamour, and the movie's always painted. There has been some movies that kind of painted it
Starting point is 00:06:18 with a little bit of a seedy undervibe, which it has in buckets. I've never been. It really is an adult playground. Like, it is out of control. I just don't know what I'd do there because I'm not a gambler. No, you absolutely don't need to be able to gamble. I'm just, you might be wondering why I'm getting a stack of plastic cards out of my wallet.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Because if you've been to Las Vegas, you'll know this sound. Oh, you walk down the street and they're like trying to give you a card for strippers. Yeah. Oh, really? And they click the cards at you. And it took me so long to realise what was happening. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Hey, buddy. What's the kiss? I think you don't need to gamble because I'm not a gambler. No, you're 100% don't need to gamble. If I went to Vegas, I'd definitely have a little go at the pokies. We had a tradition of on the way to the breakfast, because Fletch and I went together once with my wife as well. Yeah, it was a cute little trio.
Starting point is 00:07:13 It was a thruple holiday. A thruple holiday. And you always put a dollar on the winning wheel on the way to breakfast. We both won once, eh? We both won 40 to 1 odds once when the time we were there. But also the key to Vegas is you can just put a dollar note into like a one cent machine
Starting point is 00:07:29 and just have a yarn with all your mates and they'll bring you free drinks. So you just press it every like five minutes. But if you're on the one cent machine, they're not bringing you very nice drinks and they're watering them down. Very watered down. And you've still got to obviously tip.
Starting point is 00:07:42 But yeah, that's a little key. A little tip on tipping. Somebody at one of those airport slot machines that I was talking about won $300,000 while waiting for her flight at Las Vegas' McCarran Airport. Because that's the most insane. Vegas just blows your mind. From the moment you get there, you get off the plane, you walk down the gangway,
Starting point is 00:08:07 you come out the door into the boarding area and there are slot machines and you're like, oh, is this a prop? Yeah, exactly. You think this is a joke. What am I going to win?
Starting point is 00:08:16 A chocolate bar? Yeah, and like literally they're all through the terminal. That's just, you're in Vegas now and then you leave Vegas and you're a shell of a human being and there are slot machines and people just play them while they're waiting for their flight. It's just, you're in Vegas now. And then you leave Vegas and you're a shell of a human being. Yeah. And there are slot machines.
Starting point is 00:08:26 And people just play them while they're waiting for their flight. It's nuts. It makes sense though that you might have a little bit of money left in your pocket and you can't get rid of it. Yeah, on the way out. And that's what that woman was doing. She was on her way home. She wasn't arriving in Vegas. She did. She had some money left in her pocket. Her flight had been delayed a little bit due to
Starting point is 00:08:40 COVID times and airports being you know. She's masked up, though. Oh, that's good. In the video of her winning. But I didn't know this. VegasAdvantage.com is a website. It's a gambling industry website.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Yeah. And John Mahaffey, Mahaffey, Mahaffey, John, anyway, he said airport paybacks are generally far worse than any strip casino. He said. Well, are generally far worse than any strip casino. He said the amount they pay back to the person who wins and how often they pay out is significantly worse than any strip casino. Oh, that makes sense though, doesn't it? That they're sort of... Well, it's like anything at the airport. You're paying a tax on a sandwich, aren't you?
Starting point is 00:09:21 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because they've got you there. Once you go through that gate, you can't go back through to get a cheap bakery sandwich down the road at the industrial site just down the road, can you? You've got to get it done. So does it come out? If you win $300,000, how does it come out?
Starting point is 00:09:36 It prints you a credit ticket. And where do you take it? They come to you or you can go up to them and they write you a check or bank transfer it. You're just waiting for a plane and you win that much money. That's insane. And then imagine you're getting on the plane and no one on the plane knows and you're just sitting there like, I want $300,000 US dollars.
Starting point is 00:09:55 And you get home and your partner picks you up at the airport. They're like, how was the flight? You're like, nothing. Yeah, I'm leaving you. I've got $300,000. All right, quarter past six. Something Aaron does that drives me nuts. He leaves the washing in the washing machine wet.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Turns out, not a good idea. No. Don't do it. ZM's Fletch Warner-Megan, the podcast. And the land and marine warnings have been lifted by the Civil Defence after the 7.1 quake last night of the East Cape. So the warnings for the Bay of Plenty and East Cape have been lifted. Hope everybody's okay out there.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Yeah. It's a bit scary, isn't it? Have you ever been through a big, biggish earthquake? More than a shudder? No. No, not a 7.1. No. The biggest one was that one when I lived in Wellington.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Do you remember that Wellington one that sort of caused a bit of damage to buildings and stuff? Nothing there. It was terrifying. Speaking of terrifying. I don't know if Sam can compare. I can't compare. Oh, a load of wet washing. But we've all got the things that we're dealing with today.
Starting point is 00:10:58 We've all done it before. Put on a load of washing with the best of intentions. Maybe gone to work and forgotten about it or put it on the night before, hoping to put it out gone to work and forgotten about it or put it on the night before, hoping to put it out in the morning and forgotten about it. Or like Aaron, just put it on and think, that's my bit done. This is your partner.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Just puts it on, leaves it there, hoping that it will hang itself. No, not all the time, but he's got into a bit of a habit of it recently. He's a busy man, you know, so he just puts it on. So you won't put on washing if you're leaving the house? I might put it on, go to the gym, and then come back and I'll put it out. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:29 But I will not, if I've forgotten about it, any more than like an hour and a half, two hours, I'll just chuck it on for a quick 30 with another cap of laundry detergent. Oh, so you give it a wee rinse? Yep. Well, turns out an expert's been chiming in on this. This is an expert from the Whirlpool Institute of Fabric Science. So you know that this is trusted information.
Starting point is 00:11:52 The Whirlpool Institute of Fabric Science. Yes, her name is Lucinda Otushk. Okay. That's probably the correct pronunciation. Is she a doctor or just an expert? Just an expert. Okay. I don't know if there is a doctor in washing science.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Maybe there is. Maybe there is. She has now said that you don't actually have to remove damp clothing from your washing machine straight away. This is good news for you. What's her cut off? The smell. Give it a sniff.
Starting point is 00:12:18 They say instead, she says you can leave the load in there between 8 and 12 hours. No. No, that's getting up there. Especially after like a warm wash. She says you can leave the load in there between 8 and 12 hours. No. No, that's getting up there. Especially after like a warm wash. It's quite hot and humid in there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Well, this is an expert. Who are you? Yeah, I'm not an expert. I'm certainly not at the Whirlpool. Institute of Fabric Science. Yeah, no. She's saying 8 to 12 hours, at which point you have to, you know, obviously put it out.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Outside is best. But if you bang it in the dryer, it's fine. This woman sounds like she doesn't know a single thing about the world. And then she said the other way you can tell is always rely on the sniff test. Yeah, that's what I do. I don't know. Even after an hour, it's a bit like damp and musky.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah, nah. I'd just put it on again. Well, you've got higher standards. Are you using fabric softener? No. No point. You use fabric softener in every wash. Every wash I put on, I put in fabric softener.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Absolute 1%er over there, eh? I absolutely deserve that softer fabric. And it pays dividends because then it also, when you finish, even if it does sit there for a little bit, it's still got the fabric softener smell in it. Oh, yeah, okay. So you put washing powder and fabric softener and sometimes stain remover? I will...
Starting point is 00:13:30 So we've got our old washing machine still and it's still hooked up in the garage from when we did Renault's. And if something's like real manky, I'll put it in that outside washing machine. Yeah, right. What's real manky? Like poos on it? Yeah. Or like just real stained or, you know manky, like poos on it. Yeah. Or like just real stained or, you know, if you've got grease on something.
Starting point is 00:13:53 And yeah, I make a cocktail of solvents in that washing machine. I'm just waiting for it one day. There's ginola. I'm just waiting to look outside and see it on fire one day and be like, well, that will be the concoction of things I've popped in the washing machine. Fleshforn and Megan, the podcast, ZM. From the exotic ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Tamaki's back with the news. That's a shame. And then you might be thinking, well, that's hypocritical because you're about to talk about them. Yes, but I'm about to only portray them in a negative light. Does that help? Does that count? Yeah. That's what you've got to remember.
Starting point is 00:14:27 You can see why they give them air time and news time, because they rile people up. They get a reaction. Yeah. They get the reaction from people. And remember, anybody touting this anti-vax conspiracy stuff are such a vocal minority. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:14:43 You think about if it was any sort of percentage of the population to worry about, there would have been more votes for that ridiculous Billy TK bullshit political party last year. Yeah. And, you know, you've got to put that to one side and realise that media put these things in the news
Starting point is 00:15:00 because it's always such a fun thing to react to. And then they get the reactions and it feeds it for next time. Yeah. The Tumpakys are douchebags. There's no react to. And then they get the reactions and it feeds it for next time. Yeah. The Tumpakys are douchebags. There's no arguing that. And anti-vaxxers are not educated. So they escaped lockdown. They went to Hamilton the night before lockdown.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Yep. They got on the road. It was announced they loaded up the multi-hundred-thousand-dollar four-wheel drive that their churchgoers paid for. How do you give money to that man and then see him flaunting his Louis Vuitton and his wealth? Didn't he have an expensive car towing an expensive car? It was a four-wheel drive or something. He had an off-roader on the trailer behind him.
Starting point is 00:15:37 It was like a Mercedes, eh? Yeah. I was like, how do you struggle and give this man 10% of your money? All that money and those are the best eyebrows she can muster? Unbelievable. Oh, I know. So, then they went to Rotorua, made a personal collection, a personal withdrawal straight from the ATM that is the church followers there.
Starting point is 00:15:56 I mean, I'm not going to tell you what to do with your money, but don't give it to them. And then now they're in the South Island. Mayor Tim Shadbolt said, we don't want you. You can stop at the Southland border. But, yeah. Shady needs to get into his Lycra. Remember when we met him in his Lycra?
Starting point is 00:16:12 Yeah, Lycra and mural chains. What a combo. That was a sexy combo. What a combo. What a man. So, Hilary Bowery said that Jesus would get the jab. Because that's the other thing they said yesterday. They said they're in no hurry to get the vaccination. The good Lord will
Starting point is 00:16:26 provide the antibodies, but famously hasn't around the world. No, famously a lot of people are dying. We're well over half a million Americans now. A very religious state. Maybe they weren't God-loving people. Maybe they're half a million or all heathens like us. Yeah, or they said they loved God, but really they didn't enough.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Or they went to meet him. I don't know how that all works, but he would have got the jab. The top six ways Jesus would have handled the pandemic is today's top six. Okay. Number six, he would have loved thy neighbour. He wouldn't have turned on his fellow man. However, he would have scribed a very harshly written stone tablet
Starting point is 00:16:58 to anybody who didn't follow the rules. They'd be like, oh, I'm very disappointed. Irate. Number five on the list of the top six ways Jesus would have handled the pandemic. He would have masked up, strapped on his Roman sandals, and gone for a nice walk to get a bit of exercise. He would have. Maintaining his bubble.
Starting point is 00:17:14 I'll tell you where he would have walked to. Down to the local pond. And I'll tell you what he would have done when he got there. Walked right across it. He would have. Magic. A straw on the water. I'm still thinking there was a Perspex
Starting point is 00:17:26 underfloor that we didn't know about. What about David Copperfield? Don't want to ruin the magic though. No, no, no. Magic it is. Number four on the list of the top six ways Jesus would have handled the pandemic. He would have stuck to his bubble. Twelve disciples and the J-man himself.
Starting point is 00:17:41 That's a tight 13. Bit of a sausage fest if you ask me. Hot. Where's Mary in this? His mother. No, Magdalene. Mary Magdalene. The prostitute.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Yeah, that's a good call. Maybe she could join the bubble. That's 14. No, that bubble's getting... It's a big bubble. I don't know. And I don't trust that Judas much. And did any of the disciples have plus ones?
Starting point is 00:18:05 No, I think they were all... Jesus was their plus one, wasn't it? Right. All of them. It's starting to sound very. Because don't you think then the disciples are like, hey, Jesus, who's that? He's like, oh, this is Mary. They're like, well, I thought we agreed we weren't going to do that. I thought this was no chicks, dude.
Starting point is 00:18:20 I thought it was dicks before chicks. Yeah, bros before hoes. Come on, man. He's like, nah, man, my feet stink. She's here to wash them. Yeah, that's what she does. Number three on the list of the top six ways Jesus would have handled the pandemic, he would have grown out his lockdown beard.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Oh, yeah. He would have been like, you know, this little thing, it's going to get, it's time for the Lord and Saviour to go full wizard. He was quite a lean man as well. He would have maybe got a little pot belly going. Oh, yeah, if he hadn't. Speaking of which, number two, in the way to get a pot belly, he would have taken one life of homemade sourdough bread and fed everybody.
Starting point is 00:18:53 How? Online shopping with delivery. He's a sneaky bugger. He kept it very quiet. Went out, got all the bread, came back in. Look what I did. And number one on the list of the top six ways Jesus would have handled the pandemic. He never would have run out of wine in the lockdown.
Starting point is 00:19:07 He wanted a wine. See, I should have done my lockdown with Jesus. Yeah, he just would have been like. You would have been like. I got a baby, man. Do it again. How many days have you been in lockdown? Eight hours.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Shit. That is today's top six. Get vaccinated when you can. Well, it's a Friday tradition. Sure is. We find two bakeries, we put them head to head, and we decide which is the better sounding bakery. They, I mean, to be honest, this is a lot
Starting point is 00:19:46 on the corner representing. Because they really need to sell us this bakery, they need to use their adjectives. Hey, I'm running homeschool at the moment. Adjectives, which is your describing word. You need to be, no nouns don't count really here. Mr Smith, you suck.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Yeah, okay, well, I got adjectives. Lunch break. Lunch break. Mr. Smith needs a wine. If I was homeschooling during lockdown, it'd just be PE all day. Yeah, same. Running around.
Starting point is 00:20:16 Play with this ball, kids. Yeah, here's a stick. Have fun. So, using your adjectives, tell us about your bakery that you're representing, and they could win this week's Bakery of the Day. And a very glossy certificate. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Katie, good morning. Welcome to Bakery of the Day. Good morning. Good morning. Now, what bakery are you nominating and why? So, the French Baker, which is on Warren Taylor Street in Wellington. Okay. And it's teeny tiny, standing only,
Starting point is 00:20:50 and from the street, you can smell all of the amazing smells that you would expect to smell from a bakery. But they have easily the best pies, and we've tested this with people from all over, Auckland, Christchurch, whatever, when they come into the office, we take them there. They have a beef
Starting point is 00:21:05 bouchillon pie, which sounds really fancy. A bouchillon? A beef bouchillon. Literally, like, melts in your mouth. It is the most amazing pie. And everything they make there is really delicious. They have beautiful cheese scones and croissants.
Starting point is 00:21:21 I'm looking at their Facebook page. I didn't even know you were going to touch on pies because the photo of their delicious pastries was an apple. I have a taro citron because every time I go to a French bakery, I always get the lemon tart. Oh, yeah. Just say lemon tart next time. Taro citron.
Starting point is 00:21:42 When you said, I just imagined myself standing in that bakery smelling it. Could you imagine that smell as well? Butter. Yeah, when you said that. Butter. They also make the best coffee. Like amazing, amazing, amazing, strong coffee and amazing food. Strong Wellington coffee.
Starting point is 00:22:00 They play cassettes. Yeah, they need to give you a free coffee today, Katie. Yeah, you're an ambassador. Absolute passion, Sal. Yeah, they need to give you a free coffee today, Katie. Yeah, you're an ambassador. Absolute passion, Sal. Katie, wait there. Bigger than number two. She used her adjectives well, didn't she? Yeah, she did.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Bryn, good morning. Welcome to Bakery of the Day. Hey, how's it going? Good, mate, good. Now, I don't know if you heard Katie's bakery, Bryn, but that sounded delicious. You know, Beecher's Bakery ain't no French bakery, but the custard pie's going off. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:22:31 So whereabouts are you getting these custard pies? Oh, I'm the one and only Beecher's. Okay. Beecher's. So what is this bakery called? It's just the Wakeland Road Bakery, mate. Nothing fancy. Wakeland.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Yeah, I love that. Wakeland, W-A-K-E-L-I-N, Wakeland Road Bakery. That's the one. And Beechlands. How many of these will you eat in a week, Bryn? Oh, you know, I live right across the road, so I go hard. Well, go hard or go home. Have you ever gone to the bakery more than once in one day?
Starting point is 00:23:04 Oh, I start work at six. I've been there three times already. Yes! Yes! A return customer. This is a real conundrum, voting-wise, because you've got your classic bakery and then you've got your ooh-la-la French bakery.
Starting point is 00:23:19 I know, and I love a bit of both. You know I'm passionate about a tart au citron, but I also love a lolly cake. I think, yeah, because I imagine that. Bryn, let me just check. Bryn, do they do a good lolly cake? Yeah, yeah, the lolly cake's pretty good, actually. Lots of colours.
Starting point is 00:23:34 Oh, lots of colours. So I'm looking at this. Let me, guys, I'll just have to open up here. The photo here, look, you've got your lolly cake, but then they've got some sort of lolly pyramid situation here where it's the same lollies in the lolly cake on a biscuity base and drizzled on something. And then up here we've got some sort of another lolly creation.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Bryn, you're right. The lollies are very bright, aren't they? Oh, they are. They are. Like the people that go there. All right. Well, do you know what? Bryn's got my vote today.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I am worried, however, though, in this photo I'm seeing a lot of... There's a multi-board there plugging electrical devices and they've got double plugs in each of the plugs. Okay. Really loading up the electricity coming out of that wall. Oh, that doesn't worry me at all. So this is the Wakeland Road Bakery. That's got my vote.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I'm going fancy schmancy because I'm from Wellington. I knew you would. Give me an espresso and a pince. Katie's Place sounds like the place private school girls would go on their lunch break. I probably know Katie. Yeah. Bourne has the deciding vote for Bakery of the Day. This is definitely the breathing of a man who...
Starting point is 00:24:41 Look at this fresh croissant. Oh! Imagine the butter. And how very French. Standing room only. That would flake all over my pants. Remember the nuclear testing in the Pacific, Vaughan. And the rainbow warrior. That is not the responsibility of the French
Starting point is 00:24:55 baker in Wellington. On Warring Taylor Street. Oh, man. They make fresh bread. Yeah. Mmm. Pano chocolate. Milk du lait.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Don't make that noise. Don't make that noise. I just can't go past that amount of butter in dough. We're going to go to the French. We're going to go French this week. I think we're going French. Just looking at the photos. You've taken it out for the French baker
Starting point is 00:25:25 in Wellington, Bryn. Commiserations, but I mean, I tell you what, we'll add that. Console yourself with another one
Starting point is 00:25:31 of those delicious lolly cake slices. Yeah. We'll have to add that to the list of places we'd need to visit. Yeah. Because this is basically
Starting point is 00:25:37 this whole segment is, yeah, if we ever find it on the list, if we're ever in that neighbourhood and we're like, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, lightly piggish, we go to these places you've recommended.
Starting point is 00:25:51 Tooth Fairy visited our house last night. Tooth Fairy almost forgot. I was leaving the house. I saw the Tooth Fairy halfway down the driveway. I said, did you get that tooth? And the Tooth Fairy said, oh, sheesh. So the Tooth Fairy had to turn around and go back. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:26:03 And take care of that. The Tooth Fairy had to turn around and go back. Oh, no. And take care of that. The Tooth Fairy had coins in her pocket? The Tooth Fairy had a fiver in the purse. A fiver? Yeah, a fiver in the purse. That's inflation. I used to get a dollar.
Starting point is 00:26:18 50 cents a dollar, $2 max. You hear about, you know, wages aren't keeping up with inflation or rents beyond keeping up with wages. Not the tooth fairy. The tooth fairy's trying their damned best to keep up with inflation. Five times. Jesus. The tooth fairy told me there's criteria.
Starting point is 00:26:34 It's how brave you are about removing the tooth and then not crying afterwards. Oh, okay, right. Because the tooth can get tainted with tears. Oh, okay, right. It's not worth as much money. Yeah, so you've got to be brave if you want your top dollar for your tooth. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:50 And August did rip hers out of her own skull. She's like, got to the point where it was wiggly. She's like, this is wiggly. I said, it's got to come out. What a pain. And I said, and remember what the tooth fairy said last time? Yeah. A good swift removal And then no crying afterwards
Starting point is 00:27:05 And she said Well I've had enough of waiting And just went And ripped it out of her mouth Yeah It was super wiggly It was like You know when you
Starting point is 00:27:13 Can you remember What a wiggly teeth are like And you push it right forward To the tongue And you're like How is this still in my mouth It's at a 90 degree angle It's quite gone
Starting point is 00:27:20 And she just ripped it out And she was just like And just yeah Just She must have known It was nigh on. Right. And ripped that out, put that in a little plastic bag and said, dear Tooth Fairy. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Get it. Give me that money. Bitch better have my money. What would the Tooth Fairy do if they didn't have money in the house and they'd forgotten? I mean, that's already happened to many a Tooth Fairy event. Did you get an IOU from the Tooth Fairy? Maybe a little bit of a rebate, promise of a rebate. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Or maybe she just goes into the pantry, gets a tin of baked beans, puts it under the image of waking up in the morning, there's a tin of baked beans under your pillow. I don't want the Tooth Fairy robbing me. That's the Tooth Fairy's job. The Tooth Fairy better not be taking my baked beans. Also, does the Tooth Fairy robbing me. That's the Tooth Fairy's job. The Tooth Fairy better not be taking my baked beans. Also, does the Tooth Fairy have a private box at your house or is it under the pillow? The deposit.
Starting point is 00:28:13 There was a box. There was. Last night, according to the Tooth Fairy, in a Ziploc bag beside the bed. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah. Because if it was under the pillow, a a Ziploc bag beside the bed. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah. Because if it was under the pillow, a can of baked beans would be no good. Wake up in the morning like, oh.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Oh, God. And then you'd be like, oak baked beans? Yeah, I really need to brush my teeth more. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. This happened at a German prison. It's a German prison. Okay. Heideering prison near Berlin.
Starting point is 00:28:51 A trainee or what is he like, an intern? Yeah. A prison guard took photos of the keys that he'd been given and sent it to- Do they do internships at prisons? Like unpaid? Yeah. Look after just like entry level jobs.
Starting point is 00:29:04 And give them the keys. Did you see that tweet about the UN? How the UN have unpaid internships and yet they're... Oh, my... And yet they're...
Starting point is 00:29:12 The UN. Looking after human rights. Yeah, it feels very anti-UN. Yeah. Who pays the UN? I don't... Everyone? Does everybody make
Starting point is 00:29:21 a contribution to the UN? Yeah, I don't know. How much are we chucking in? I don't know. I'm going to ask Jacinda next time. Yeah. How much a year do we pay for our membership card? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:30 At Winner Video. Yeah, and what perks do we get? So this prison, they had to change 647 locks because he took a photo of these keys and sent it to his friends on WhatsApp when this eventually came to light. They said, well, there's actually enough information
Starting point is 00:29:51 in a photo of a key for a good forger to make a set of prison keys. And smuggle them in. Smuggle them in. And they get let out. It seems a bit over the top. You never know.
Starting point is 00:30:02 I mean, a prison break. Imagine if, just by sharing a photo to your friends, like a thousand prisoners just run free from the German prison. It's like, whoo! The siren starts going
Starting point is 00:30:15 and there's fire and they're all just rioting and crazy. They've all been dropped off these little ghost keys. Maybe it's not that sort of prison though. There's an air shot of the prison. They've got a dropped off, these little ghost keys. Maybe it's not that sort of prison, though. There's an air shot of the prison. They've got a soccer pitch, two, looks like tennis courts, and maybe a hockey turf. It's nice, nice to have a hockey turf. I'd quite like to be there.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Might go to Germany and commit a crime. Just to get your tennis skills up, just to work on your forehand. So they had to change over 600 doors and locks, and it cost as much as the estimated price, because the prison's not confirming how much, but they asked some local locksmiths in Germany how much it would cost to change each lock. Some total 50,000 euro to change those locks.
Starting point is 00:30:58 So one simple mistake. And he didn't do it publicly. He didn't upload it to an Instagram account that wasn't private. It was a WhatsApp group. Far out. Yeah, and that was enough to... I want to say that he's not getting a full-time paid job there. I want to say he's definitely on Friday Shout.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Yeah. You've made such a balls up, you're definitely on Friday Shout. But I don't know what he's on Friday Shout. Maybe everyone who works there gets to whip you with a wet tea towel or something as punishment. No, that's sexy. That's going to get the prisoners excited. Yeah, a public whipping. Maybe everyone who works there gets to whip you with a wet tea towel or something as punishment. No, that's sexy. That's going to get the prisoners excited. Yeah, a public whipping of the young fellow.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Oh, God. What a terrible way to stuff up. Is everything all right there? You seem to be distracted. 7.2 earthquake off the Kermadec Islands at a depth of 10 kilometres. That's a shallow one. At 7.11am. Now Kermadec Islands at a depth of 10 kilometres. That's a shallow one. At 7.11am. Now, that's just happened. I'm just trying to get, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Harold's saying a live 7.5 magnitude earthquake strikes near Kermadec Islands. This morning's East Cape quake upgraded to a 7.3. Far out. We'll keep you updated on that in case there are any tsunami warnings. I don't want to panic anybody at this stage. Just getting this information to hand. And I'm sure those in the affected regions will get the civil defence emergency text should
Starting point is 00:32:14 you need to see higher ground if there is a tsunami. Yeah, so if you're asleep you won't be for long because that alert is loud. Yeah. So, on the back, while we keep across, you know, we keep that in our eyesight to keep an eye on, we want to know when you really balls it up at work. Your expensive work balls up.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Yeah, like your little mistake costs work a lot of money. Yeah. I'm looking at you, people who are learning to drive forklifts. I love seeing, do you love seeing those videos online? Yes. And it's just a little top heavy and you see it, it's coming, it's coming, and then it falls over. Or they're going real fast and you're like,
Starting point is 00:32:53 you know the back wheels are the ones that steer, and then they turn and they go, and then they go sideways into a big stack and cause chaos. So we'd like to know when your balls up at work was an expensive one. Well, there is good news in this crazy last 24 hours that we've had, 12 hours. No new community cases overnight. So Cabinet will be meeting this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:33:16 There'll be a four o'clock announcement regarding any levels, but I would probably expect that. We're coming out? I would say no, I think after the weekend. You think after the weekend? I'm saying let's all prepare for after the weekend. It'll be Monday.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Some people are hoping maybe that we'd go a bit early, eh? No. And maybe come out later tonight. No. So we're going to hit the clubs tomorrow. No, there'll be no clubs. The clubs will not be clubbing. I'm just looking at the civil defence.
Starting point is 00:33:43 I found them on Twitter. They haven't had, one hour ago was their latest tweet, Fletch. Right. Okay. So there has been a 7.4 earthquake at the Kermadec Islands, Rau Island.
Starting point is 00:33:52 Now that is some way away from New Zealand, but it is in the Pacific. Yeah. Basically Bay of Plenty straight up. Right. Near Tonga. It's actually, it looks like it's closer to Tonga than it does to New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Right. So we'll just keep you updated, but that is just also something to be aware about, and we'll update you. After the earthquake last night, there was 7.3 off the East Cape. Felt high and low, actually. You guys were woken by it. My mum just texted me and said,
Starting point is 00:34:21 Jeepers, that was a long earthquake last night. So she felt that in Wellington. In Wellington. I didn't feel it. But I did have a couple of red wines before I went to bed. That'll help. That will help, yeah. It'll keep me covered.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Talking about an intern, a new guy on the job in Germany who sent a photo out of the prison keys. He worked at a prison. Yep. And it meant over 600 locks had to be replaced at that German prison and an estimated over 50,000 euros to replace those. So we want to know when you are stuffed it up at work, maybe during an internship. Yeah. Anonymous, this is your brother.
Starting point is 00:34:54 How much did he cost his workplace? It ended up totaling to 500,000. What? All because of why? So there was a guy that used to pick on him and he used to write obscenities in the cheese as it was going through the window to him. Wait, what? He used to write in the cheese?
Starting point is 00:35:17 Or on the wrapper of the cheese. Wait, where did he work? Hang on. He worked at a cheese factory. Okay, yeah. So he used to take the wrapper off the cheese and send it up about and put it into big grinders and blenders and then there goes McDonald's.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Oh, right. So he's like grated cheese. No, no. He used to do cheese slices. Oh, right. Cheese slices. Okay, cheese slices. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Go out to places that put it on there. Delicious. So as he was taking the wrap off, he'd see all these things, homo and... Right, okay. Right, right. Okay, highly offensive thing. Someone was riding on it.
Starting point is 00:36:00 So how did that cause $500,000 worth of damage? So he ended up losing his cool completely. And while he was digging out the grinder because it was blocked, he ended up turning around and threw the shovel on the ground. And it bounced back up and hit what was meant to be Perspex windows, but it happened to actually be the last glass panel in the building. And it went all in the cheese? So that's what recalled everything?
Starting point is 00:36:27 That smashed and his boss ended up making him start up all the machines again. So you can imagine glass going through a big blender machine with around two and a half tonne of cheese in it. Oh my gosh! And so all that cheese. Oh, that's such a, that's a crime against cheese. That is terrible. That's a crime
Starting point is 00:36:43 against cheese. Unbelievable. It's such a, that's a crime against cheese. That is terrible. That's a crime against cheese. Unbelievable. It's like when you break a bottle, you kind of just carefully, you put it through a sieve or something, or you don't. Your cheese is. I guess so. Somebody said, my brother used to work for Kiwi Rail. They were working on a bridge, grinding out some bolts.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Falling sparks ended up lighting a whole valley on fire. They had to get the choppers in to put the fire out. That would have been size pen serve. It was tens of thousands of dollars. It wasn't actually my brother on the grinder, but we like to give him shit about his fire starting habits all the time. Graham, how much did you cost a workplace? 80,000 bucks. 80, how?
Starting point is 00:37:19 I drove a Rolls Royce into a paint booth. Into a paint booth. So what, did you break the paint booth and do some damage to the Rolls? Oh, yeah, yeah. Crashed it through the doors of the paint booth, smashed the headlight indicator. Oh, a Rolls Royce. What happened?
Starting point is 00:37:39 Like, slip of the foot, wrong pedal? Oh, as I was hopping out, I knocked it into gear, and I was standing there watching it. I was like, oh. Oh, shit. Stood there watching it. That's what I remember doing. Brilliant, Brian.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Thanks for your call. Text messages. I managed to drive into a pivot irrigator with a tractor causing $30,000 of damages. Farmers don't tend to find these things funny. No. Somebody said, I'm in flight training. I damaged the propeller on an aircraft,
Starting point is 00:38:05 and that cost a small fortune to replace. How do you do that? You have a bumpy landing. So clip something. Yeah, or turn and turn and it hits something. Oh, these are making me cringe. Oh, no. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:38:18 If you've just put a light scratch in the work vehicle that can be coloured in with a felt, don't feel too bad about it. We've all coloured in a scratch in a car with a felt. Yeah. Anyway, yeah. That's why I only buy black cars. There's been an interesting study on cats in Japan
Starting point is 00:38:36 to find out if they are loyal. And, you know, this is a long debate. Dogs are loyal. Cats aren't. Your cat doesn't love you as much as you love it. The cat doesn't care as long as it gets fed, basically. Which I refuse to believe. My cat, Rolly, has just come home from a cattery.
Starting point is 00:38:53 He's been away for a month as we moved house. Did he sulk when he got home? Yeah. It's because you played hard to get, though. You sent him away and you're like, it's like kids who go to boarding school. They come home at the holidays and they're like, Mom, Dad. But now he's so happy.
Starting point is 00:39:08 And the parents are like, we don't like you. He's so happy to be near us and he remembers us. Right. And he's like, Mom, Mom. Our cat actually says Aaron's name. It's really scary. Right. When he's upset, he goes, Aaron.
Starting point is 00:39:22 And it sounds like Aaron. Anyway. I think you're grasping there, but okay. I'm not grasping. You're crazy. So there's been a test done by some animal behaviour scientists in Japan where they did a little experiment to see if cats did have any loyalty to their owners. So what they did in the experiment was they had three people.
Starting point is 00:39:42 One was their owner who had a container. The other was a person role-playing as a non-helper and the other was a person role-playing as a helper. And the owner had to sort of get out of their, get something out of this container and, this is sort of a bit weird,
Starting point is 00:40:00 get something out of the container and ask the non-helper to help them. And then the non-helper to help them. And then the non-helper had to say no and refuse and be a bit rude. All this is happening in front of the cat. This is a display in front of the cat, a little play, shall we? And then the other person comes in and says, I'll help you. So they do this, right?
Starting point is 00:40:25 And then they get all three of them to have a treat in their hand and offer it to the cat to see if the cat would shun the non-helper who did wrong to their owner and take preference towards their owner themselves or the person that helped their owner. Turns out cats have no loyalty whatsoever. I can't imagine a cat could comprehend what they just witnessed. I would struggle. But like you hear about people being attacked by someone and their dog will help them and save them. They did a very similar test
Starting point is 00:40:54 to dogs and dogs quite instantly didn't take a liking to someone that had done wrong to their owner. And you do see that. You do see that. Those acts of loyalty to their owners. But there was none whatsoever. And they do see that. You do see those acts of loyalty to their owners. But there was none whatsoever. And they're saying that it doesn't necessarily mean
Starting point is 00:41:09 that cats aren't as loyal. It just means that from, you know, the start of cats, they don't actually have the brainpower to comprehend human behaviour. Bad CGI and absolutely no loyalty. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Hayley's pick for Flashback Friday today. And I've had some beef about it already from Jarrod.
Starting point is 00:41:36 I'm all for this song. I felt sure we were going to have some Celine Dion. Absolutely not. I know, but I'm trying to keep it Trying to keep it a bit modern No no what you do is you voice what you're thinking of Fletch goes oh god no Absolutely not and you know it's going to be good You know it's going to be good Oh god Chaka
Starting point is 00:41:55 From last week The long history of I mention it and Fletch is like Absolutely not No that'd be so stupid And then the songs always go down well. Well, I think it's a timely choice I've made. It's a 10-year-old song as well. It is.
Starting point is 00:42:10 I think it's a good Friday banger. It's coming up. Before you got to work today, Vaughn, Hayley wolfed down a smoothie. Yeah, I did. I slipped it right up. I even BYO'd straw so I could get it down quicker. Like a thick smoothie straw? No, it was quite thin, this one.
Starting point is 00:42:26 And you commented, you said, God, that was it. You patted yourself on the back and said, I made a good smoothie. I did because I've welcomed carbohydrates back into my life. Because you're not doing keto. I'm not doing keto anymore. So there was a banana in it and everyone who makes smoothies know the core of a good smoothie is a banana. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:42:43 I had fresh blueberries, frozen raspberries, chia seeds. I had a bit of peanut butter. I had collagen powder. So you were planning on taking a massive poo sometimes. Because that's also going to move through. And I'm surprised that didn't trigger you because that's what I wanted to make. She's using collagen.
Starting point is 00:43:02 She's doing the collagen powder. So look, this collagen powder that I put in, because usually I'd put in a bit of prot, you know? And I've got a good prot brand that I like to use. A bit of prot. Put in some prot. A bit of prot. I'm just chugging in some prot.
Starting point is 00:43:16 I would put my prot in there, like a vanilla maybe. Yeah. But today I didn't feel like it. I just felt like a fresh, fruity. I didn't want any creaminess to it. Collagen's bloody moolied up bones, isn't it? We talked to a feel like it. I just felt like a fresh, fruity. I didn't want any creaminess to it. Collagen's bloody mullet up bones, isn't it? We talked to a doctor about it. They said your body can't...
Starting point is 00:43:30 And then Hayley was like, but what about all the good hair and nails? Everyone who has collagen on the reg is like, oh my God, I can't even stop my hair growing at the moment. And I don't have a lot of hair. I just think it's because they're paying more attention. No, no. People are like,
Starting point is 00:43:42 my God, my fingernails. And they've got like long, strong fingernails. But you know your fingernails grow anyway. No, no, people are like, my God, my fingernails. And they've got like long, strong fingernails. But you know your fingernails grow anyway. Yeah, I understand that. But I think they'll grow longer. Are you more aware of them
Starting point is 00:43:53 because you're like, I'm taking this thing that makes them better, but then you're more aware of them. I'm not going to be collagen shamed here. I think... Your body can't ingest it.
Starting point is 00:44:00 What do you mean your body can't ingest it? It can't process it because it's a long protein, right? Yeah. That's what the doctor told me. Can your body absorb collagen? Oh, no, because, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:44:10 When Megan Googled this, she found results that said it can, but then when she read down further, it was a medical study sponsored by a major collagen brand. Well. Which always a little sketchy. But people do swear by it. That's part of it. And it's a huge industry.
Starting point is 00:44:25 You go to the supermarket, it's all over the place. I've got like three brands of collagen at home. But I'm not a regular taker. So I'm going to try. I'll do my own experiment and we'll see. And maybe you'll see how luscious and long both my hair and fingernails become. I found some in the cupboard at home. Was Sade secretly using it despite you?
Starting point is 00:44:43 So I was immediately, I walked out, I was like, what's this? Holding it. And she's like, I got sent it. I didn't pay for it.
Starting point is 00:44:51 I was like, prove it. Internet banking. Open all accounts. Yeah. For anything that could possibly be linked to this. And no,
Starting point is 00:44:59 but she didn't. She did get sent it for free. Right, okay. But look, this here, this website, this neutral website, which was the top of my list on Google,
Starting point is 00:45:08 says, yes, collagen cannot be absorbed by the body in its whole form. The collagen proteins must be broken down to smaller peptides or amino acids before they can be absorbed. But collagen supplements are typically, and I will check mine, already broken down into the peptides
Starting point is 00:45:23 or amino acids that we can absorb to have luscious, glowing skin and long, beautiful hair. I ripped all my hair out last year. I've got to try something. Get in there and try that. These ball patches are becoming more and more frequent. They're less and less sleek like hair. Maybe I should try it.
Starting point is 00:45:42 I'd be the ultimate test, wouldn't I? How strong is that? I wish you'd imagine if it did. I'd be like, guys, I was a nice hello cue once. I feel like you would have a bald head and just lovely fingernails.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Yeah, just these long, beautiful fingernails. I'd be like, well, you know, you can't deny. We'd hear you on the laptop,
Starting point is 00:46:00 like, like a travel agent. You used to hear a travel agent. Oh, used to. No. Tap. Oh, used to. Tap, tap. Nails on there. No, okay, good. Flesh for an Amegan.
Starting point is 00:46:11 The podcast. ZM. Well, pineapple on pizza has been a long debate, hasn't it? Pro? Against? I don't mind it. You get the old Hawaiian. Every now and then I crave a bit of Hawaiian. It's not bad. A bit of cheap Hawaiian. And you know what I crave a bit of Hawaiian. It's not bad. Cheap Hawaiian. And you know what I had recently and I
Starting point is 00:46:28 was like, damn these are yum. But dress them up as you would see fit. Is a bun, like a white bun. Like a brioche or just like a soft hamburger bun. Cut in half. Plop. Spaghetti. Cheese.
Starting point is 00:46:44 And then dress it up, right? But no pineapple. I won't put pineapple on that. I put pickle on that. Was it the former leader of the National Party? Bill English. Bill English put spaghetti on a pizza. Spaghetti and pineapple on a pizza.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Yeah. In the lead up to the election. See, everyone was like, I'd eat that. It's carbs on carbs. I'd eat it if I had to, but it's not great. It's not if you're going out for pizza or if you're, like, top priority, but if you're just chucking something together with what you've got laying around, you'll find no judgment here.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Well, Jamie Oliver was doing just that, really. He shared a recipe for his family favourites on his Instagram, and it was the quick speedy sausage pizza. Sounds delicious. The speedy sausage pizza. Sounds delicious. The speedy sausage pizza? Speedy sausage pizza. That's like sausage meat, isn't it? Yeah, like every time you don't have a bit of meat to go on your pizza,
Starting point is 00:47:31 you rip open the skin casing of a sausage and slam it on that pizza. Yeah. Delicious. So he was cooking this pizza with his son, and it was all going smooth until he added the final ingredient. Grapes. Red or green? Red. Oh, that shouldn't be. Oh, no. Green. Seedless or seeded? What?
Starting point is 00:47:52 Green grapes. I'm going to imagine they're seedless. It's got to be seedless. He's not that much of a monster. You're an absolute monster. And to go with sausage meat. And what else is on the pizza? It's obviously savoury. Cheese, onions. Caramelised? Caramelised onions See I'm starting to actually understand it a little bit
Starting point is 00:48:10 This is the thing, you've got to dress everything up right, everything, if you just say the two basic ingredients, it might sound grise but it's what you dress around it with Sometimes you find like a balsamic onion fig sort of situation happening Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, apply brakes your private schoolgirl's showing there with your fig.
Starting point is 00:48:27 So, Onion, I'm okay with maybe pull back on this balsamic. As people that went to public school, that was never a condiment option. She's talking about figs again! What, you guys didn't have a figgy pizza at lunch?
Starting point is 00:48:42 No, no. I'd never even had a fig until where we moved and there's a fig tree. I was like, what are these? Shado's like, that's a fig. Have you never seen one before? What a fig. Private school girl. Private school girl. What about bacon-wrapped prunes?
Starting point is 00:48:57 What? Now, I'm familiar with bacon and I'm familiar with prunes, but not... When you put them around like bacon-wrapped mussels or something on the barbie or bacon-wrapped prunes on the barbie, I tell you what, you never looked at. What was your school canteen like? Oh, it was basic, but we were surrounded
Starting point is 00:49:12 by lovely cafes in Thornton, so in seventh form we could go out and visit a cafe. So you didn't have to go to the school? The canteen was like pies and cookies and chocolate milk and stuff. And caviar. Lobster quiche.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Lobster quiche. Anyway, so obviously once he put these grapes on, there was a bit of a kerfuffle online. But Oliver stands by it. Jamie Oliver stands by it saying, sweetness, the saltiness, it all kind of works. Yeah, I want to try that before I judge it. Yeah, I actually put a hot grape.
Starting point is 00:49:44 I can't do a hot grape. Oh, that's like a hot cherry tomato. God, that before I judge it. Yeah, I actually... Because I caramelised onions and... I can't do a hot grape. Oh, that's like a hot cherry tomato. God, that thing will burn you. But hot tomatoes, you cook a tomato. Do you cook a grape? Well, it would be under the oven, wouldn't it? So it would get hot. Or people at people's houses.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Too hot a grape. I'd imagine it'd be a little grenade of extremely hot grape juice. The internet's gone crazy over it. Some person said, Pineapple, who roasted grapes on pizza? It's a dream. It's gone crazy over it. Some person said, pineapple who roasted grapes on pizza? It's a dream. It's the burst of sweetness. It'll get you. Other people are saying you're killing Italians.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Grapes on pizza? Disgusting. Roasted grapes? Oh, you can roast grapes and have it as part of your cheese board. Besides your walnut and your quince jelly. It definitely makes sense in the context of a cheese board with your walnut and your quince challenge. It definitely makes sense in the context of a cheese board with quince and chas.
Starting point is 00:50:29 You've just got a pizza oven. You've got to try this. I'm going to be, yeah, I am. I've been sent one to talk about it. It's all about moderation though. Grapes on a pizza.
Starting point is 00:50:39 It's not a grape pizza. There are grapes on the pizza. I think that's the thing to remember. Right, yeah, yeah. Okay, they're a part player. They're not a full-time cast member. Yeah, you don't have a pineapple pizza. There are grapes on the pizza. I think that's the thing to remember. Right, yeah, yeah. Okay, they're a part player. They're not a full-time cast member. Yeah, you don't have a pineapple pizza. You have a ham pizza.
Starting point is 00:50:51 Ham and cheese with a little bit of pineapple. Dash of pineapple. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The Podcast. ZM's $50,000 Secret Sound. The secret sound is... Alright, $30,000 is the current jackpot. ZM's Secret Sound. Alright, $30,000 is the current Jackpot ZM's

Starting point is 00:53:40 Okay. You did one, and then you were away, and somebody filled in, and then this would be your third. Is that right? Yeah, that's right. No, this is my second. Yeah, because somebody did one for you while you were away on, remember when you did the TVNZ breakfast tour?
Starting point is 00:53:56 Oh, yeah. One of them fell on that week. You were away on a Friday. Okay. Well, I have gone, I've been talking a lot about Britney recently. Hashtag free Britney. It's a real big movement at the moment. There's a doco, the doco's on.

Starting point is 00:54:19 And you have come. Framing Britney. Unprepared. Framing Britney Spears. I'm not unprepared. So I had a look back at what was banging in the last 10 years because she's had bangers in every year, basically. Other than when, you know, she had a little slip up with her mental health.
Starting point is 00:54:36 And now, so I've gone for 2011's hit. It was number 27 on the top charts, which is high enough for me. So in the end of year charts, it was the 27th biggest song of the year. Of the year. Okay. This is Britney Till The World Ends. This is a banger. Friday Fleischer.
Starting point is 00:54:54 It is. You're right. It's a banger. Born. It's got that classic Britney. Yeah, it's got a pretty sound to it. Oh, I know, I know. ZM. Sound to it. Sit in. You know that I can take it to the next level, baby If you want this goodness, sicker than the remix

It's your Friday flashback. Hayley's pick this week. That was a banger. And good positive feedback all round. If you can hear me puffing a little bit, it's because you can't do anything but dance to that song. A bit of a dance.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Do you know what I'm ready for before you go on? I'm ready for another ballad from Britney. Oh, really? She's so lucky. You know, like when they... Oh, yeah. I'm ready. Because she's had a lot of sort of club bangers in the last
Starting point is 00:59:06 decade and I just feel like I'm ready for especially after all this controversy around Britney, like a, I'm free. Yeah, but in the early 2000s I think we were very forgiving of who tried ballads. But now you've got your likes of like your Adele's and they absolutely nail it every time. Sorry, are you saying that Britney's not
Starting point is 00:59:21 up to it? That's exactly what I'm saying. Are you saying that her vocals won up to it? That's exactly what I'm saying. Are you saying that her vocals won't stand a ballad? Look, if she's been held against her will and financially controlled, that's terrible. And I do agree, she should be freed. But I will also say vocally, she's not really up to scratch. Yeah, shut up.
Starting point is 00:59:40 She absolutely is. She deserves to be freed. Good feedback, though, I think. Majority in favour. I wasn't on board initially, someone said, but the chorus won me over. Yes, that's where it gets you. Thanks for the banger. Somebody said, of all the Britney songs, but that's a problem. We've done so many Britney songs.
Starting point is 00:59:56 That one's just two and ten. All the other Britney ones have been spoken for in previous years. That song took me back to my clubbing days. Oh, okay, yeah. Yeah, and somebody else said, I'm a new mum here, sleep-deprived new mum. You've raised me from the dead, took me back. Yes. That's the power of Britney.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Yeah. It's the power of Britney. That's the power of Britney. Let me in. To your soul. You need to get down on your knees and pray for Britney. No, I see. I like a club because it's just balancing.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Yeah. That entire place. All right, 14 minutes past 8 In England, an entire footpath's been stolen It was made up In West Sussex, it was a footpath Made up of individual slabs Oh, so that's why
Starting point is 01:00:37 It's not like a bitumen or a concrete No, it's not poured concrete It's slabs of rock And it looks old It looks like it's been there for quite some time Locals just came out, it's not poured concrete. It's slabs of rock. And it looks old. It looks like it's been there for quite some time. Locals just came out and it's been like crowbarred up
Starting point is 01:00:50 and they haven't taken them like every single one. They've made the footpath unusable. So they've taken the nice papers. They've either taken the nice ones or like they've known what size they're after. Oh, okay, right.
Starting point is 01:01:01 Because the really small one's still there and the really big one's still there. But they've taken all the medium. The ones all of a similar size have been popped out with a crowbar and I'm loaded up, I presume, onto a lorry. Do people still do that thing where they make a little cute path to the clothesline but they do a brick every foot? Yeah, so they can walk out if the grass is wet
Starting point is 01:01:18 and not get your slippers drenched. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I think they do. They've stolen most of a footpath. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I think they do. They've stolen most of a footpath. Yeah. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:28 So they said it's going to need to be completely redone now because obviously they can't find this. It would be super expensive to cut stone. That's why these people have just come in and stolen it. Because it's, yeah. Because they might have a specific look that they're after and specific stones and areas. So they were just like, that council's got them. We'll go and pinch those.
Starting point is 01:01:44 I always wonder at the sheer audacity, the balls that people have to do stuff like this, like to break into cars right outside. Like there's always cars outside my apartment building. You can't go out in the morning, there'll be glass all over the footpath.
Starting point is 01:01:57 Oh, yes. People are sleeping like right there and people are always walking around here. It's busy. It's always lit. It's always lit because of the streetlights. How do people just take a couple of minutes to break into a car?
Starting point is 01:02:10 And also, car alarms don't work because a car alarm goes off and you're like, oh, it's someone's car alarm. You don't know what your individual car alarm sounds like. So when we worked with, their car was parked outside their window and the car alarm went off and they reached over to their bed beside and went, unlock their car. Then they heard their car was parked outside their window and the car alarm went off and they reached over to their bed beside and went, unlock their car. Then they heard their car go, down the road. They literally
Starting point is 01:02:31 unlocked the car so the person stealing it had an easier time of it. I wondered this morning when I got up, because I've got one of those remotes that if you get close enough to the car, you can just push a button on the car. You don't need your keys in your hand. Yeah. And then it was parked right outside my bedroom window where my handbag was.
Starting point is 01:02:47 So I wondered if- How close? Even if through the house wall and the window, if it was close enough. Yeah, maybe. Someone walked up my driveway and just took it away. And away you go. So on this, I was just wondering,
Starting point is 01:02:59 a footpath's been stolen and that's unbelievable. It's pretty crazy. What has been stolen that you just, maybe one day the local playground was gone and you're like, oh they upgraded the playground and someone's like, no it's been stolen. Or have you seen people stealing lawns? You know those lawns that you can roll up?
Starting point is 01:03:16 Oh, those are so lush. They get put down and then people just turn up in the night and roll it back up. Because if it doesn't get settled in over the first few days, yeah, you can just roll it up and take it away. because if it doesn't get settled in over the first few days yeah you can just roll it up and take it away so what
Starting point is 01:03:27 you want to hear from people that have had something stolen or seen something stolen and you just cannot believe that someone
Starting point is 01:03:32 went to that effort to steal that something or even how yeah how did they steal that like do you remember back in the day
Starting point is 01:03:39 there was was there a giant gnome statue in town and someone unbolted it that wasn't even that long ago that was a couple of years ago it was an art town and someone unbolted it? That wasn't even that long ago. That was a couple of years ago. It was an art installation and someone took it.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Because they just thought it was just like a silly statue, but it actually was like a piece of art. We're talking about what you struggle to believe was stolen, but it was stolen. A footpath. All the medium-sized rock parts of a footpath have been stolen in the UK. The tiles, yeah. The medium-sized rock parts.
Starting point is 01:04:07 Tiles? Otherwise, no one is here. Tiles. Rock tiles. Stolen. The big ones stayed. I'm guessing they were heavy to lift. Yep.
Starting point is 01:04:15 And the little ones probably didn't fit the task. So we want to know what you can't believe was stolen. The sheer audacity of it. Hannah, what can't you believe was stolen? Morning, guys. Morning. Morning.
Starting point is 01:04:28 Wow, when I was in high school. Do you want the long story? Give us the medium to short story. Okay. Hannah, if you could just give us the absolute smallest version of the story. Can you give us the bare minimum? Give us the skeleton. How about you give us the bare minimum and we'll ask some follow-up questions.
Starting point is 01:04:47 Okay. Well, it was a teacher's only day and I was instructed to stay at home, but clearly I didn't. I went to go and see my boyfriend at the time and I biked because I didn't have a car. And so I biked and I locked my bike up on the fence and then walked to the park to meet him. You know, we hung out for a bit and then I went back locked my bike up on the fence and then walked to the park to meet him. You know, we hung out for a bit and then I went back to my bike and both my bike tyres were stolen
Starting point is 01:05:08 and only my frame remained there for me. Like, just steal the whole bike. That's why you're always supposed to put the chain through the tyres, right? Absolutely. That was my first mistake. Yeah. Yeah, and so I had to, like, wave down.
Starting point is 01:05:23 This was back in the day when you didn't have cell phones. And I had to, like, wave down a random lady to get a phone call to call my mum. And she picked me up, faced the thunder, took me to the police station to file a report. And then your mum knew that you were hanging out with your boyfriend. That's the giveaway. That was the problem, yeah. Brilliant.
Starting point is 01:05:42 Oh, no. Hannah, thanks. I think the long version of Hannah's story would have had a lot more of the romance. Yeah. Maybe like what they did in the park. Yeah. How long they were going for. Carla, what can't you believe was stolen?
Starting point is 01:05:55 A whole house, a whole show home house. Okay, we've got some follow-up questions for this one. Yeah, so my husband worked for a building supply company and one of the franchisees in Auckland didn't pay his bills. So he's like, he's ordering the kits to get home but he didn't pay his bills. So they went up there on the first night and they disconnected all
Starting point is 01:06:14 the utilities and then they cut like all the strapping underneath it, holds it to the piles and then the next night they went up with the house removal company and they cut a big hole in the fence and then they took it away. So then the next day when the guy turned up to his yard, there was no show home. Because usually when you get your house repossessed,
Starting point is 01:06:31 it's just the title. Yeah. No, so he never paid his bills, so they kept the house and they sold it off. And they stole it back. Wow. That is amazing. That's a good move.
Starting point is 01:06:42 I like that. It is really. Carla, thanks. You call some text messages. Someone was stealing my underwear every night. So I put granny panties up. Still got stolen. I was like, hmm, so it can't be a pervert.
Starting point is 01:06:54 Or is it? So another pair of granny panties went, put up a camera. We caught the culprit. Who do you think it was? Cat. It was a cat. It was a seagull. What?
Starting point is 01:07:03 A perverted seagull. Now, what do your undies smell like? That it drew in a mollyhawk. Tuna. You should head to the doctor, mate. I reckon wash them. Maybe try a new detergent. A fabric softener.
Starting point is 01:07:19 But then if they were putting up some decoy underwear that they weren't even using, it must have just been... Well, they didn't say they weren't wearing the granny panties. They just said that they weren't their flashes. We might need to follow up on that one. Yeah. Carry on. Somebody said, my car got broken into.
Starting point is 01:07:33 I saw the smash window. I was like, damn it, my stereo is going to be on. Stereo wasn't stolen. The steering wheel was stolen. A whole steering wheel. Aaron's had that before. Someone stole a steering wheel. Your fiancé.
Starting point is 01:07:47 Why did they do that? And then people put those things on them. Did they have a Momo? Was it a nice one of those? I can't remember. What are those flash? Momo steering wheels were pretty, pretty, pretty cool. My parents bought a fake one back from Bali when I was a kid.
Starting point is 01:07:58 And I had my Starlet in my teen years. Of course they did. And people were like, wow, this four-door 1300 Toyota Starlet that doesn't have any other modifications apart from that Momo steering wheel looks pretty cool, dude. Can I sleep with you? And I said, form an orderly queue, ladies. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:08:14 Of course you did. That's an exact historical account of how that did not go down. A giant plastic cowl was stolen from the roof of our local shop. There was just no sign of how anybody even got up there. It was an absolute mystery. Because you'd need it, like a crane or something, wouldn't you? Yeah, or just the noise it would make getting up and getting down. There was a, in Taupo a few years ago, there was a massive,
Starting point is 01:08:37 and I mean massive, three and a half metre tall, four metre long steel push bike sculpture. Okay. It was ripped out by a Uten stolen. What are you going to do with that? Exactly. What the hell do you want it for? And then when it's in your backyard or something, people go, where did you get that?
Starting point is 01:08:54 Why did you get that? Somebody stole an entire concrete toilet block from a freedom camping area in my town. See, that's somebody who doesn't want the freedom campers there and if they don't have the facilities they can't stay. Yeah, but then they'll just build another one. Yeah, that's somebody who doesn't want the freedom campers there and if they don't have the facilities, they can't stay. Yeah, but then they'll just build another one.
Starting point is 01:09:07 Yeah, they're pretty a nice one. Yeah. Well, unless it was the local person who builds toilets. Yeah. Oh, inside job.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Sure. Somebody said, our house got robbed. The weirdest thing was dad's entire sock drawer was gone. There was nothing in dad's sock drawer
Starting point is 01:09:22 apart from socks. Like a perverted seagull. Yeah, it does a little bit. With a foot fetish. socks That sounds like a perverted seagull Yeah it does a little bit A little foot fetish Does Dad's A little randy seagull Feet's got a fishy stink to them now ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan

Starting point is 01:11:38 Please tell me he's still alive. No, he didn't die. Didn't he die? No. Recently? No. No, guys, dudes, he's 90 years old. Shut up.
Starting point is 01:11:47 He just turned 90. You're thinking of someone else from Star Trek. Someone from Star Wars. Lots of people from Star Wars have died. What did you say? Did you say Star Trek? We always say Star Trek just to rile up Star Wars nerd porn. So we have had a few deaths lately in Star Wars.
Starting point is 01:12:02 R2-D2, didn't he die? Yeah, he died. He ran out of batteries. And Carrie Fisher died a few deaths lately. Yeah. In Star Wars. R2-D2, didn't he die? Yeah, he died. He ran out of batteries. And Carrie Fisher died a few years ago. The guy that played Chewbacca died a few years ago. Yeah. So there's been a few deaths. Sorry, James Earl Jones.
Starting point is 01:12:13 The guy that was the body of Darth Vader died. That's right. The guy that was the bodybuilder who played it, who thought he was going to be the voice. Anyway, we're getting distracted. There's only one person who's won two EGOTs, and he's on his way to winning a third. His name is Robert Lopez.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Never heard of him. Never heard of him, but you will have definitely heard his music. He wrote for the Book of Mormon. Oh, yeah, okay. Great musical. Bloody good musical. He received a Grammy Award for his Book of Mormon work, and he's worked a lot with his wife.
Starting point is 01:12:44 He won Academy Awards. In 2014, he won for Let It Go from Frozen. Oh. And he Remember Me from Coco, best original song in 2018, Academy Awards. I would have done those for the Friday flashback. What's that? Stole my mind on the mountain.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Next year, next year we qualify for Let It Go Frozen because it was 2012, the end of 2012, that song came out. Crazy. So that's going to be 10 years old next year we qualify for Let It Go Frozen because it was 2012, the end of 2012 that song came out. So that's going to be 10 years old next year. He won Emmys for Wonder Pets, which is a kid show. He wrote music for Wonder Pets. For Grammys, he won for the Book of Mormon. He won for Frozen and he won for Let It Go for Frozen. And the Tony Awards, he wrote Avenue Q,
Starting point is 01:13:22 which was like a Broadway adult puppets, right? And like a Sesame Street for adults. For adults, yeah, he won for that. It was very naughty. And Book of Mormon, he won his Tony Awards for as well. And he's won two. He's the only person that's won two, and he's on his way to winning a third.
Starting point is 01:13:36 You might be thinking, what's he been doing lately? Well, if you've been watching WandaVision, have you got my- I do, yes, for you. He has been writing all of the music for WandaVision. So every episode, if you've not been watching WandaVision, have you got my... I do, yes, for you. He has been writing all of the music for WandaVision. So every episode, if you've not been watching WandaVision on Disney+, every episode, the first one was like 1950s, 1960s, 1970s. He writes a different theme song for it every week
Starting point is 01:13:55 based on what sitcoms were doing and TV shows were doing. So the final episode of WandaVision is today? Tonight, yes, 9 o'clock New Zealand time. I'm waiting and I'm going to binge it all at once. So can you not say anything on Monday? That goes for everyone. And the internet? Would you like the internet not to say anything either?
Starting point is 01:14:13 Yeah, internet. If you could just honestly take pause, I've been very busy. I just want to play you block your ears then. Nah, this won't give anything away. That's not a spoiler. This is his song that they think is likely to win him and secure him his next
Starting point is 01:14:25 his next EGOT. Okay. This is from WandaVision. And it's based on the Monsters theme tune.
Starting point is 01:14:35 If you remember the TV show The Monsters. So this is just nice. Pause. Pause. Pause.
Starting point is 01:14:42 Pause. Pause. Very old school. I know. So he might be the first person to ever win three EGOTs. So today's fact of the day is Robert Lopez is the only man to win two EGOTs and he's about to win his third. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. A mother has shared some insight on a parenting website.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Oh, what would she know? I think that's what you immediately have to yell when someone's given their opinion on something. Well, they have numerous kids, this couple, and this woman they said they were fighting. She called it cancerous. They're arguing. The mother and father? The resentment
Starting point is 01:15:34 that was growing between them as they were trying to balance their relationship with becoming parents, she said was cancerous. Holy moly. Yeah, I know. They've shared a rule that I think even if you didn't have kids, any relationship, this would be a good rule. Yeah, so after she shared this, another person came on and said,
Starting point is 01:15:50 we went to marriage counselling for this very reason, and this is what we learned. It's called the three-by-three rule. And this is what it is. That's how the ants go marching. What? No, they go marching two-by-two. Ah, right, gotcha.
Starting point is 01:16:03 Wait, what? The ants go marching two-by-two? Hur. Got you. The ants go marching two by two. Hurrah, hurrah. Never heard that in my life. Are you kidding me? The ants go marching two by two. Hurrah, hurrah. The ants go marching two by two.
Starting point is 01:16:12 The little ones stop to do a poo and they all went marching down. Have you never heard the ants go marching? Oh, maybe a little of that ring a bell. What was your childhood? Do you know he'd never played Duck, Duck, Goose? Oh, my God. We should play a little bit.
Starting point is 01:16:23 I've never heard about Duck, Duck, Goose. This is the perfect desk for Duck, Duck, Goose as well. I know it really is. Anyway, we're talking about marriage. Except when you're running and I ankle tap you and you go flying through that window. I'd do it. I'd do it for a good game.
Starting point is 01:16:34 So the three-by-three rule is what was recommended. And here's the three-by-three rule. It's a technique whereby each parent gets three hours during the whole week that is just their own. It's supposed to be spent. You can spend it how you like, but it shouldn't be spent with your partner. And not with the kids?
Starting point is 01:16:51 If you have kids? Not with the kids. Okay. Like it can be, you could take an hour on a Tuesday night. You could take a little time in the morning, just three hours to yourself for the whole week. And then the times three bit is three hours as a couple,
Starting point is 01:17:05 just on your own. Oh, wow. So three by yourself, three as a couple. Yeah. But then that's hard if you've got kids, because what, you just get a babysitter or get the parents to... But even it can accumulate. So after they go to bed,
Starting point is 01:17:16 you dedicate half an hour to having a chat and a cuppa. Half an hour to hopping in the sack and... Sleeping. Getting at it. Cuddling. What, sleeping? Having a little kiss. Yeah. Cuddling. Having a little kiss. Just a little kiss and a cuddle. And they said that
Starting point is 01:17:31 ever since, they've been implementing it for a month now, so not a lot of time. And she is shocked at how much it's shifted for them already. She says it hasn't magically made all their issues disappear and turn them into better parents.
Starting point is 01:17:49 But she said something even more profound happened. All the resentment, that silent cancer that eats away at marriages, has slipped away. Is that enough time? That's plenty, eh? I think it's... It's more the knowledge. She said it's more the knowledge of knowing that there is scheduled and valued me time.
Starting point is 01:18:08 Scheduled or scheduled? Scheduled. Scheduled. Scheduled. Scheduled. Is it a bus schedule or schedule? You scheduled time or scheduled? I scheduled you in.
Starting point is 01:18:19 I penciled you in. Okay, all right. So you penciled in. Yeah, so penciled in me time into the family's diary meant that she wasn't so snappy. She could always be like, you know what? Don't worry because I've got Tuesday. I've got that hour for my bath.
Starting point is 01:18:33 So the three times three, if you're at it all the time with your partner and you're wanting to maybe just have a little bit of time, three times three. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Well, breaking news. Of course, overnight there was the earthquake just off the East Cape. That was a 7.3 magnitude earthquake.
Starting point is 01:18:52 At 2.30 this morning. Yep, those tsunami and water and land warnings were lifted by civil defence. Then we reported just after, between 7 and 8 this morning, there was a quake just off the Kermadec Islands, that kind of area, Rail Island. Yeah. That's quite a way north from New Zealand. There was a civil defence warning for the Bay of Islands and Northland. Yes.
Starting point is 01:19:18 Now, breaking news, there has been another eight magnitude earthquake in the Kermadec Islands just minutes ago. So National Emergency Management, the New Zealand Civil Defence official Twitter account has said the tsunami warning has been issued following the Kermadec earthquake. People near the coast from the Bay of Islands to Whangarei to Matata to Tolaga Bay and the Great Barrier Island must move immediately to the nearest high ground out of all tsunami evacuation zones or as far inland as possible. And this is ongoing tsunami warning. People evacuating should walk, run or cycle
Starting point is 01:19:52 if possible to reduce the chance of getting stuck in traffic. Do not return until all clear as given by the civil defense. This is three minutes ago. And that is the third earthquake this morning. Okay, so that's, those areas again, from Matata, right around to Tolaga Bay, so the East
Starting point is 01:20:12 Cape, Great Barrier Island, and from Whangarei up to the Bay of Islands. Those areas again. That's quite scary, isn't it? Yeah, three in a row and eight, that's the biggest one so far, isn't it Yeah three in a row and eight That's the biggest one so far isn't it It is yeah
Starting point is 01:20:27 Well the Civil Defence have issued evacuation Warnings The phone alerts Remember that when we're all in bed Or we're up late and we got that Oh we're moving to level Three again A friend in Whakatane just sent A screenshot through We're up late and we got that hole. We're moving to level three again.
Starting point is 01:20:48 A friend in Whakatane just sent a screenshot through. They've got the emergency alert on their phone. It says tsunami. Leave evacuation zones now to high ground or inland. And the areas that are being told to evacuate, if you haven't received this warning. This is from the civil defence. Areas from Matata through around to Tolaga Bay. So that's all of the East Cape.
Starting point is 01:21:08 Yeah. Around the coast. Matata's right in there. Yeah. Also the Bay of Islands to Whangarei. Evacuate to higher ground immediately. And Great Barrier. Great Barrier, the whole island of Great Barrier.
Starting point is 01:21:21 I don't know, does that Auckland frequency reach Great Barrier? I'm not sure. It's like it would bounce across the ocean to get out there. So your friends in Whakatane in the Bay of Plenty
Starting point is 01:21:30 in the, sorry, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because that's what Matata's like right in, it comes quite close into like Papamoa and that sort of area.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Yeah. So what's that, how far down is that? Fletch is just looking at it. Yeah, so it's like halfway between Papamoa and Whakatane. Whakatane, yeah. Ash, halfway ash. So, yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:53 Crazy. So this is because of the latest. There was a Kumitek Island 7.8 earthquake. This is the latest earthquake. This is an 8 on the Richter. Yeah. And bear in mind that obviously the Kumitek Islands are quite a way north,
Starting point is 01:22:09 but obviously there's just vast ocean in between. Yeah. So it's not going to- It's not something you want to mess around with. No. Or take lightly. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. If you enjoyed this podcast,
