Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. Play. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast. Thanks to McCafe, barista made coffee available from drive-thru and McC delivery at level 3 and also dine-in at level 2. Yeah, last night I showed Shade my gift from Brian, if you've missed that podcast two days ago. Yeah, also the video accompanying
Starting point is 00:00:25 accompaniment they're on our socials video i'm not sure if we needed visuals beautiful visual it was a great visual uh vaughn received his very first pair of uh jock straps i think it's just a jock strap jock strap yeah yeah why would you say a pair of undies but not a pair of jock straps yeah a pair of jocks a jock Yeah. A pair of jockstraps. A jockstrap, yeah. Interesting, interesting. The English language continues to be fucked there. Yeah, so I put it on last night.
Starting point is 00:00:52 I told Shade about it, and she's like, that's interesting. And then she's like, who we're like. And she was also in the absolute naive dark about this being the favorite underpant for a sexual encounter of a homosexual male bottom. Yes. That is bottom as in... We get it. In the sexual equation, there's a top and a bottom,
Starting point is 00:01:12 not a bottom as in the arse. You know, like the bottom of a Lego piece, the top of a Lego piece. No, technically, no. What? That would have to be flipped upside down because the bottom plugs into the top in Lego, whereas the top plugs into the bottom in a homosexual encounter.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Well, they could be on top. Who? The bottom. The bottom. Yeah, but you're confusing people there who we are explaining this to. I mean, if you know, you know, right? It's a terrible analogy. I-Y-K-Y-K-Y-I-I.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Yeah. You know, you know, you know. So what was the feedback like when you... She was very, very... She says, that's very interesting. Wait, was it... You were wearing them... She was in the shower and I...
Starting point is 00:01:52 No, no, no. I took it all off and popped on the... What was the ass badger? What was it called again? Car thrust. Pig, pig, dirty pig. Filthy pig. Nasty pig.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Nasty pig. I knew it was an animal and I knew it was some sort of negative. Yeah, connotation. Connotation. So my nasty pig jockstrap. And yeah, I went in and I said, what do you think of that? So just wearing that. Yeah, she rubbed the condensation off the shower glass and went, very interesting.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Right. But not aroused? No. Oh, okay. No, no, no. It was very little arousal both on her behalf and my behalf. I should have perhaps gone semi-aroused. Filled out the pouch a bit more.
Starting point is 00:02:31 To give the pouch a slightly more plump look. Okay. But nah, so that's just the brand. Maybe you need to go for a high-end, like an Aussie bum brand. No, I don't think there's anything wrong with Nasty Pig. I'm open to doing some paid posts for Nasty Pig. Right, okay. Oh, my God, can you please?
Starting point is 00:02:48 I'm not. No. All right, well, thank you to Brian for that lovely gift. Yes, thank you again, Brian, you naughty, naughty man. I guess that will go in the dress-ups drawer for another day. Well, I got that g-string that time, the front pouch on it, you put your penis into, like into the back of a rooster puppet.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Do you remember that one? Yeah. It was like a red. So you had to be pretty warmed up to get in there. That hung around for a while. That got chucked out in the house move at the end of 2018. Thanks for that, Brian. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Thanks, Rachel. Good morning. Welcome to the show Fleach Vaughan and Megan, happy Thursday morning To everyone except the gang member that took COVID down And Brian Tamaki But that goes without saying Yes
Starting point is 00:03:36 And police have said this morning That if you did receive drugs from this courier with COVID, please destroy them. Even though there's no, I don't know if COVID can stick to a baggie. Unsure. I'm no scientist, but I wouldn't take any chances. Not taking any chances. But yeah, seriously, bad news. So yeah, if you're feeling unwell in the Waikato surrounding areas today,
Starting point is 00:04:05 don't go to work. Get tested. Soon as possible. Stay safe out there. I had to make sure my mum's drug dealer wasn't that guy. Did you? Okay. Christina, you're still getting weed from the same person.
Starting point is 00:04:19 I'm only kidding. My mum doesn't smoke drugs. No. She bakes them. Valium from Thailand. Oh, she's going to run out by now. She loves her little yellow pills, her little yellow sleepy pills from Thailand.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Oh, no. She'll be running out. What's she doing? She wouldn't dare think about actually going to her doctor and asking for Valium. That would be absolutely unheard of. But she'll buy them from a pharmacy in Thailand. She doesn't speak the same language as.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Probably, you know, she'd just speak to them very loudly and very slowly and describe the pills she wanted. Yeah, right. Okay. They're yellow, dear. They're yellow. And then she'd point at something on her shirt that was yellow.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Yellow triangle. Triangle. And then she'd make a triangle with her hands. Sleepy I bet at least the Thailand pharmacists have had A good couple of years of rest and relaxation At least From all the tourists Coming up on the show, the top six
Starting point is 00:05:18 Yeah, we're having a vaccination day It's a national holiday Imagine if it was a national holiday That might get people excited It's called a weekend It's a national holiday. Well, it's almost Saturday. Imagine if it was a national holiday. That might get people excited. It's called a weekend. It's called the weekend. And we're going to, gosh darn, do our best to get everybody vaccinated. So that's not this weekend, but next weekend.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Yeah. I believe the 16th of October. Does that sound right? Big push. Well, yeah, because what are we now? It'll be the 9th, 8th, 7th, 16th. Yep. And they want everybody to come together.
Starting point is 00:05:48 All the political, civic, local leaders. Yeah. Put your differences aside. Reach out and don't touch somebody's hand or face. Let's get vaccinated and make it a better place. That was just off the cuff. Yeah, good. Well, if they need that song, that's a good start.
Starting point is 00:06:06 All right, well, the top six dealing with this National Day. Yeah, the top six things we can have at this National Vaccination Day. All right, coming up on the show, 7 o'clock and 8 this morning, all thanks to Neon, ZM's $50,000 secret sound, currently at $10,000. And this is the sound that everybody is trying to figure out. Your chance to get through the activator just before seven. Next, the science behind why men and women feel the cold differently.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Why you're wearing a T-shirt and I'm wearing a jacket in the studio. Well, it's very high. You're not warm in here. It is warm. It's too warm in here. No, I'm just right, actually. That'd be right. ZDM's F high. You're not warm in here. It is warm. It's too warm in here. No, I'm just right, actually. That'd be right. ZDM's Fletchborn and Megan.
Starting point is 00:06:49 We don't argue. It's kind of just resigned to the fact that I wear a jacket in studio and you guys wear a T-shirt. It was my surprise the other day. You were like, oh, it's very warm in here, isn't it? Sometimes it does get too warm
Starting point is 00:07:01 and I agree with you. It needs to be turned down. But most of the time you guys are like, oh, it's really hot in here and I'm just right. And then Georgia comes in afterwards because the two studios
Starting point is 00:07:08 are air conditionally linked and then she's like I'm freezing. Yeah. We're like shut up. And then sometimes you come in in the morning and the night show
Starting point is 00:07:20 and the afternoon show I've had it on too hot. They love a hot sauna in here. Sauna studio. Well you're always like on. Too hot? They love a sauna in here. Sauna studio. Well, you're always like, aren't you hot? Well, it turns out the women actually do need the heating turned up.
Starting point is 00:07:31 And this is probably like so many people have fights with the air conditioning. So a study and scientists have revealed that the female species, and this isn't just humans and some animals as well, they're drawn to higher temperatures because of an inbuilt evolutionary difference. I see you're a problem for everybody then. Bears, whales.
Starting point is 00:07:54 The variation in the... Yay? Yeah, well, it's not COVID. Is it cold? Is it too cold in here? No, I made my drug dealer take tests before he gives me my meth for the month. Okay. So the variation in metabolic rate is one reason.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Right. Because guys crank that higher than females do. But interestingly, it goes back to like caveman days. So females, they would segregate where they sleep and stuff because they would prefer it warmer than males and that might have something to do with the fact that keeping females and babies away from predatory males, so the males would, you know, like scope out the space
Starting point is 00:08:36 and any, you know, like predatory males that would come along wouldn't then see the females and the babies because they'd be in a separate area. Hidden away somewhere else. What, like in a cold cave somewhere? A warm cave. Oh, a warm cave. Right, okay. I thought you might have been a buffer for any sparks and embers
Starting point is 00:08:55 from the fire. And females might also prefer warmer climates to protect offspring when they were too young to regulate their own body temperature. Yeah. And so now here we are in 2021 and we just can't keep the air con at a constant level
Starting point is 00:09:12 because our ancestors did this in caves. Yeah. Interesting. And they had a little woolly mammoth as the vacuum cleaner. Oh my God. They used to push it around in their hand. They did. How did you turn it on and off?
Starting point is 00:09:29 Pull its tail. Yeah, and they had a little piggy under the sink, and that was the garbage disposal. 100%. And Wilma Flintstone had a bird that she held by the beak and used its tail feathers to dust the house. Those were the days. Good old Flintstones.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Better days, better times. Simpler times. Simpler times. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Megan. Well, a Reddit post in the Reddit forum Am I an A-hole? I love that forum. Has gone viral. So this is a wedding photographer,
Starting point is 00:10:04 a wedding photographer posting about his experience. He posted, he said he'd take photos for a couple. Now, I don't think they had a lot of money and he was doing it kind of as a bit of a favor. So I think he was getting $250 to shoot the whole wedding day. That's good, eh? That's like real cheap. What?
Starting point is 00:10:25 Yo, that's real cheap. That's real cheap. Real cheap. Because how much would a wedding photographer cost normally? It varies. A lot. Thousands. Especially if you get like a video and photography package.
Starting point is 00:10:36 And they've got a couple of photographers and they follow you around all day. And then they might do a little bit of a touch up on some of their photos. They're professionals. Right. and then they might do a little bit of a touch-up on some of their photos. Professionals. Right. So he doesn't sound like he's an actual pro-pro, but he does do a lot of photography. It's his friend.
Starting point is 00:10:54 So he's like, okay, $250, that's fine. So he explains in this post that all up it was a 10-hour event and that he ended up starting around 11 a.m. and was finishing around 7.30. Now, it was around 5 o'clock that food was being served, and he was told that he couldn't stop to eat because he needed to be a photographer taking people and that they wouldn't feed him. No one wants to have their photos taken while they're eating.
Starting point is 00:11:20 No. No one wants to be, like, caught mid-gob of a... Like, what are those Canapes Yeah yeah yeah No I was trying to think Of like a specific canape Those salmon cake things
Starting point is 00:11:31 But you've got to cater For your photographers and stuff Well yeah And so that's when The groom said that He told the groom Look I need Can I just have 20 minutes off
Starting point is 00:11:41 For a little bit of a You know rest Because I've been going non-stop Everyone's eating I'll eat too. And that's when he said no, that he either needed to be a photographer, keep working, or leave without pay.
Starting point is 00:11:52 And that is when the photographer snapped. He deleted all the photos in front of him and took off saying, I'm not your photographer anymore. Or friend. Or friend. They make hangry decisions. Yes, and then that's when he turned to Reddit saying to the Am I an Arsehole forum
Starting point is 00:12:11 Wait, who turned? The photographer or the group? The photographer. Oh, okay. Yeah, and the posters had like thousands of comments and the majority of people sticking on the photographer's side. Really? Yeah. Um, yeah, okay. I mean
Starting point is 00:12:28 the person was a jerk but you can't get those photos back. Yeah. I would have held them ransom. Yeah. I would have held them ransom. To get your money. Like I would have stormed off and then they would have been like, okay, okay you can have some food. I'd be like, huh, I won.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I get food. Can't believe you deleted them. Yeah, but they're gone forever. At this stage, you're at the reception. So all the ceremony's been done. You're not getting any photos of that. Unless people had cell phone photos. And probably not, given the way weddings are these days.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Yeah, because they're like, no photos on Facebook media. They have heaps of photos of themselves, but not too many of you. And you'd be like far away if you were. How dare. Yeah. Well, that'll teach you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:11 So look after the little guys. Especially when your friends are doing you a favour. Yeah. For $250 for a whole day of wedding photography. From the sophisticated ZM Think Tank, this is the Top Six. Hello there. A national vaccination day planned for next Saturday. Not the Saturday.
Starting point is 00:13:31 The next Saturday. Ten days time. Thereabouts. As a push to get people vaccinated because this means if you get vaccinated, you can get your second jab before the summer holidays. Yeah. Also, yesterday they were saying that if you've already had your jab for three weeks or more, you're waiting for that six-week marker, you can bring it forward.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Right. Just because they're worried that, you know, it's getting out there. Right. Okay. You can get your second. You can get your second. Or you can just wait for the six weeks if you're happy to do that. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:14:03 I was wondering, we've had lots of breakdowns about vaccinations. Like, I see that New Zealand Indian population is leading the charge. Yep. Followed closely by people of Asian descent. Yep. And New Zealanders. And I was thinking we need a whole lot of different demographic breakdowns. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:14:24 To make this more competitive. Oh, okay. To make this more competitive. Right, okay. So I googled what the current LGBTQI plus vaccination rates are. While we don't have the results in New Zealand, in America, over 92%. Wow. Oh, wow. And that was in August. Over 92% of LGBTQI plus adults have been fully vaccinated.
Starting point is 00:14:49 Wow. So, Brian, do you want the gays running the world on the other side of this? Or are we going to get vaccinated so we can continue getting back to all that bullshit after this? Who runs the world? Gays. I'm just saying, they're vaccinated. Today's top six are the top six things to have
Starting point is 00:15:09 at the National Vaccination Day. Number six, sausage sizzles. That'll get the crowd in. Ask Mitre 10. Bunnings. But, BYO sausage and BYO stick. They'll just have fires burning in drums.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Maybe they could have a little slide. Your sausage rolls down at a two metre distance. Like, you know how much fun it is with those automatic pancake making machines to watch the fingers. And then it slowly goes along the conveyor belt cooking. I'm going to be 40 in February. I'm imagining I'm going to be watching

Starting point is 00:15:54 Good stuff. Gosh darn. Number five on the list of the top six things to have at the National Vaccination Day are the pokies. People love the pokies. They do. And when you get your vaccination, you get to have a Max Lyons Max bet. So it's a bit of an all or nothing full-blown spin attack.
Starting point is 00:16:13 And then you get your payout at the end. Number four on the list of the top six things to have at the National Vaccination Day are a raffle. A meat raffle. That gets people down to the Razzamos Tuesdays. So you have a meat raffle and the ticket is your vaccination. Why not?
Starting point is 00:16:30 To win a bloody pork shoulder. Oh, did I win Lotto last night? Did anybody win Lotto? Did anybody win Lotto? Did you buy a ticket? I knew it would hit the magic mark. You would have bought a ticket. It's got to that amount where I'm like, okay, I'm buying one now.

Starting point is 00:16:57 Vampires. Oh, okay. They've got a gambling problem, so they try to make it really hard for them to gamble. You don't need vampires out of control at casinos, that's for sure. Well, they live forever, you see. What would you do if you did it on air and it's like, you are a winner of something, a million dollars?

He's gone and then Fletch just leaves. Yeah, I was like, man, he really put his whole career in a bonus ticket, guys. Number three on the list of the top six things to have at the National Vaccination Day to get people on day on. That game where you buy a square on a field and then the cow gets let loose on the field.
Starting point is 00:17:35 And wherever the cow does the poo, that square wins the prize. Is that a rural school gala thing? Did you not do that? No. We don't have cows in the city at our schools. But someone would have a cow connection. No. I don't know anyone with a cow connection.
Starting point is 00:17:49 I've got a cow. You've got a cow connection. I didn't know you when I was like young. You lived on like the fringe. There could have been a sheep. There could have been a goat. It was as long as an animal defecated. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Somewhere on the square. So a grid would be drawn up. Yeah. And you'd buy like, it was like battleships. You'd buy like D7. Oh my God. And that would be the square. So a grid would be drawn up. Yeah. And you'd buy like, it was like battleships. You'd buy like D7. Oh my God. And that would be one square. I didn't win lotto.
Starting point is 00:18:10 It's gone to 26 million. Is he lying? I'm going to have to buy another ticket. That's good because I didn't have a ticket. Oh, but two people did win half a million dollars. That could be you. I would love that. I don't need a million.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Half a mil would be just wonderful. Shut up. Who wants half a million? You can have 26 on Saturday. That's loser speak. Yeah, so basically when you get the jab, you get a square. And then we all socially distance and watch a cow do poos. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:38 It's a fun game. I didn't know you guys didn't do that. Come around here with your cute old school gala stories from the rural. Did you have the one where you could pay $2 to smash a car up? Yes. That was not... Even at the time, I'm like, that seems unsafe. And I was like a crazy teenager.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Yeah, there was an old car and you'd pay like 50 cents or a dollar and they'd give you a hammer and goggles. Eventually you saved the goggles. How many wax? Oh, I just... You got like a minute. You got like a minute and you'd go in there and you'd just bash the shit out of someone's mum's old Honda Crown.
Starting point is 00:19:08 And then there was another one, a ride where they'd tie sacks to, like, a robe and a tractor and they'd just tow you around the field. Magic carpet rides? Yeah. So cool. We used to do that at home. You're not allowed to do that now, though, eh? Nah.

It looks like someone came in with a little bit of a weak hammer. Number two on the list of the top six things to have at the National Vaccination Day. A silent disco in your cars.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Oh, yeah, nice. People love silent discos. They do. Not my cup of tea. You look like a dick. Are you having fun? What? What channel are you having fun? What? What channel are you listening to?

It's for the TikToks. Okay. So she wore, and she put up a picture because someone was like, I need to see these shorts now. So she's wearing little short denim shorts.
Starting point is 00:21:22 She wore them, and they were very uncomfortable, she said, for eight hours. She didn't wear uncomfortable clothing. Comfort should be key. Yeah, that's why I don't like shirts. I myself am in. Farsham, Baba. Most of the shit I wear is uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:21:37 I still can't believe people would put themselves through that. I am in the purchasing lounge of some shorts, meaning I'm in the market to buy some. Where do you buy a nice pair of casual, comfortable shorts? Not jorts. I don't want to be a jorts guy again this summer. Maybe jorts on the odd occasion, but I've been jorts for years because they're comfortable.
Starting point is 00:22:01 I don't know if I've ever seen you in other shorts. Just ordinary shorts. No, you don't. You either do. And I don't want to I've ever seen you in other shorts Just ordinary shorts No you don't You either do And I don't want to be like basketball shorts guy And I don't want to be board shorts guy What about sweet pants guy? Sweet shorts
Starting point is 00:22:12 The pockets let me down You don't like the pockets Yeah Wow okay And when you see someone in sweat shorts Like you're like Are they trying to show me their bulge And there's nothing like
Starting point is 00:22:22 What about some denim cut offs? Some booty shorts Some booty shorts? Some booty shorts. Could do. Okay, well, good luck with that. People are like a hairy back of the leg on a pale back of the leg. Is that in fashion? Sure, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Absolutely. Hot. So this woman, she was somewhat stuck in her pants for eight hours, these tight denim wedgie shorts. She knew they were uncomfortable but was like, oh, well. When she finally got them off, the next day she was like, ow, something hurts on my butt. So she went to the doctor.
Starting point is 00:22:54 They gave her antibiotics. But then a couple of days later, she couldn't walk. And she went to the hospital. She had sepsis and cellulitis. They were going to cut off a part of her butt. What? Because it had gotten so infectious. She had an infection.
Starting point is 00:23:08 So she cut off the circulation effectively. No, I think she got like a graze. Oh, right. Like a rashy rub. Oh, right. Chafing it. Oh, my God. But like, this means that it had rubbed raw.
Starting point is 00:23:24 She couldn't walk. Where did she go on the date? It looks like some sort of festival or something. So she's like sat in something. Or like sat on a chair and somebody else, there's been something gross on it. Yeah. Oh, that is manky.
Starting point is 00:23:39 These shorts that she knew were uncomfortable and tight. But she's like, hey, never mind. I mean, she should have taken them off at the time but they were very tight. This is why I don't do uncomfortable clothing. I don't own shirts. I don't own like one or two shirts for a suit. Is it the collar? Yeah, I just feel
Starting point is 00:23:58 restricted. This is one of these shirts. This is the most comfortable shirt. You can tell by I wear it every single day. Yesterday I got a stain on it and I was like ah! And I stained a stain on it and I was like, ah! And I stained and I removed it and I washed it and I dried it and I put it back on for today. It's the most comfortable shirt. Because you love it. It's so comfortable.
Starting point is 00:24:15 It's kind of like a swan dry Bushman's kind of. I don't know what it is, but the buttons don't go all the way down, which is also great. Right. Because when the buttons go all the way down, you've got to do buttons up. And that's boring. I get really bored doing up buttons. It's time I could spend doing something else.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Yeah. That's why I wear t-shirts. No buttons. Yeah. Buttons suck, man. I feel like they did a focus group with like farmers and were like, what do you want in a shirt? You know what else it's got?
Starting point is 00:24:41 You got a pen? Has it got a pocket for a pen? It's got a pocket for a pen. It's got a pocket for a pen. Like behind the actual pocket, there's a slot especially for the pen. You actually do get a lot of compliments about that shirt. I've heard you get compliments about that shirt. Well, that's the thing about it. Don't compliment a guy's clothes unless you 100% mean it
Starting point is 00:25:00 because the minute he gets a compliment on it, he'll wear it every day. Like you are. That's me. Play ZM's Flesh, Fawn and Megan. Well, Halloween's at the end of this month. And there's costumes, many costumes. I guess there'll be no trick-or-treating in level three. No.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Level two for the rest of the country, that'll be acceptable. Will it? As long as it's down a distance. A distance. Like there's a bowl. You could have a chute for your lollies. Yeah. Because, yeah, a bowl, everyone's just sticking their hands in it.
Starting point is 00:25:30 Yeah. And that's a problem, isn't it? Yeah, you could have a little chute. Yep. A lolly chute. That's pretty good. Like a whole bunch of downspout from your guttering. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:38 And just slide lollies down it. So don't forget to put that back on before it rains. Well, there's one of those costumes you can buy, like, you know, from your look shops that comes in a plastic bag. If it's like Mario, to get around copyright, they say Hero Italian Plumber. Oh, and there's, you can get the Foreign Reporter,
Starting point is 00:25:56 which is Borat. There's a Foreign Reporter. To get around that. Yeah, they get around all the copyright. Yeah, yeah, by that. So there's one of those in a plastic bag, comes with a wig, some glasses, they get around all the copyright. Yeah, yeah, by that. So there's one of those in a plastic bag, comes with a wig, some glasses. It's called the Karen. Okay, wow.
Starting point is 00:26:11 This is still, like, my girls play Karen. There's, like, this game called Karen. What? Well, I think it's on Roblox, which they play. Right. And in it, someone's the Karen, and they've got to go around just, like, complaining and making everybody's life miserable.
Starting point is 00:26:26 It's that much of a thing that we're even teaching our kids what a Karen is. Yeah, yeah. The name's gone. It's done. It's done. Change your name. But yeah, there's been like mass complaints from Karens about the fact that there's a Halloween costume named after them. Well, I was talking to my friend the other day.
Starting point is 00:26:42 He was like, I would love to go as one of the Squid Game minions. And I was like, oh, I reckon it would be like a fencing mask. Because do you reckon those are fencing masks or some kind of? Yeah, there was too many of them for it not to be an already established. But I tell you what, I quit Google and they are, when I say they, the factories are onto it, man, because you can already buy. They're cranking it. You can already buy those Squid Game minions.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Yeah. You get the whole costume, the pink overalls, you get a harness, everything. Producer Jared just messaged through saying you could paint a sieve black and put it over your face. Just spray paint a sieve. And just twink out the triangle. On a total budget.
Starting point is 00:27:23 They must be fencing, because they look like fencing masks, right? Just spray painted a sieve. Then just twink out the triangle. On a total budget. They must be fencing, because they look like fencing masks, right? Just spray painted black? Yeah. Well, no, I think fencing masks come in a range of colours, so they've probably just got a black one and then put the triangle or the circle or the square on it. I bet that person that opened a fencing store in New Zealand was like, oh, I don't know if I should open the store for the 10 people
Starting point is 00:27:42 in New Zealand that fence. But if I'm going to open it, now's the time, the Olympics. Now's the time. They do it, and then they open it, and then this happens, and all of a sudden there's only so many fencing masks. It's like, what is happening? Wasn't the Olympics great for our chosen sport? ZM's Fleshborn and Megan.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Play ZM's. ZM's $50,000 secret sound season 10 it is season 10 of ZM's $50,000 secret sound currently we are at $10,000 the jackpot

Starting point is 00:28:32 Good morning. Good morning. Hello. Now, Dylan, the secret sound. When you first heard it, what were your thoughts? Well, I was sitting in my car at the time when I heard it and I was just playing around and I think it might be something inside the car. Okay, this would not be the first time a secret sound has been located in the car. Okay, Dylan, for $10,000, what
Starting point is 00:29:01 do you think the secret sound is? I think it's the winding up and down of the electric window button. Ooh la la. An electric window going, yes, going up and down. I can just imagine you doing that 10 times. So is it the window connecting as you wind it up or you mean the button, pushing the button? The button. Okay. Very clunky button you got there.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Dylan, you got a clunky old button. Thanks for that, Vaughan. Okay, has it related to the clue at all? How did you connect it there? Well, a lot of people are going through drive-thrus, KFC, McDonald's or whatever, and they're winding up and down their windows. Probably going through the show sponsor's drive-thru. Yeah, I'd say Prime Cafe.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Be the one they're going through, Dylan. Sausage, deep-fried muffin, please. Absolutely, yeah. One of your delicious coffees. Delicious coffee this morning, yeah, absolutely. Enough of that, though. Time to let you know if that's the correct secret sound and i appreciate all your efforts dylan but i'm gonna have to say no that isn't the secret unfortunately not but uh every guest that gets through this week does win a one month
Starting point is 00:30:20 neon subscription so that is all yours well done thank you Thank you very much. ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan. So nearly a third of people, this is aged between 25 and 34, and it is in the UK. I don't know if it would be the same here. No longer trust banks, and they stash their cash at home somewhere.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Which, if you've got a bit of cash at home, and you get burglarised, or your house burns down. Was this, we spoke on air to someone who was digging up jars of money, right? Yeah, yeah. So would that have been, why? Because they were like not trusting a bank. Digging holes in the garden.
Starting point is 00:30:59 In New Zealand, and I think it's changing at the moment, but I don't know if it's kicked in. We were one of the very few places in the world where banks didn't, you didn't have a guarantee for your money and savings in your account. In the world. You didn't have a guarantee? No.
Starting point is 00:31:15 So I think at the moment, they're working on up to $100,000. That money's guaranteed by the government. It's like the world's least fun casino. Yeah. So I can see why maybe if, you know, COVID's happening, the world's crumbling and they're like, oh, well, I don't want to trust my money in the bank.
Starting point is 00:31:34 It's not guaranteed. So the money in the bank wasn't guaranteed, but the money we owe the bank is guaranteed. In forms of like mortgages and loans and stuff, guaranteed. Absolutely. They'll come after you for that. Interesting. But yeah, I don't know too much about it.
Starting point is 00:31:47 I just know that it's, yeah, they're working on making that a thing. Right. Whether it's already kicked in or not, I don't know enough. But 42% as well think that the banks make their money through hidden charges. So that's also leading to the mistrust. They don't want to pay, you know, like extra charges. But where are you hiding your money? Yeah, and so the bank might
Starting point is 00:32:09 charge you $5 a month or whatever and that's X amount a year, but how much are you going to lose if someone breaks into your house or your house burns down? Yeah. And you lose tens of thousands of dollars. They would get their wages paid into a bank account and then automatically remove it. I'd say so, yeah. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Because can your work pay you cash? No, no. No, because the erd will get involved, right? Probably. The erd will be like, eh, hello, what's going on? But then you're like, okay, they gave me cash
Starting point is 00:32:40 and then I'm going to give the erd my taxes and cash. They could give you cash. They could. But they'd take out the tax before. Yeah, but the minute you've got more than two employees, can you imagine what a pain in the ass that would be? Payday, all right, I'm off to the bank to get all this cash out
Starting point is 00:32:56 because you guys want to be paid in cash. Yeah. This is what it'll be after PAYE. I don't know of anyone that does that here. No. I just never really considered the necessity of them. Like, if you actually didn't trust them, what would you do? Because you still have to have a bank account to get it paid into,
Starting point is 00:33:15 like, to save the work. I guess you could get Bitcoin, but then that's, you got $1 today and then you got $1,000 the next day and then tomorrow you got minus 50. It seems to be very all over the show. My Bitcoin mate just sent through, because I meant to send a GIF or a GIF, but I said GIF, through to the group,
Starting point is 00:33:32 but I accidentally clicked on one of the Bitcoin as a rocket. And he's like, yeah, have you read? And I was like, no, I don't care. And his Bitcoin's gone crazy. It's on the up, which I know a lot about stocks. Great time to buy. Famously, it's not. But yeah, it goes up and down.
Starting point is 00:33:50 It's up. Are you looking at? No, no. A friend has messaged saying his dad used to pay three guys in cash until three years ago. But I'm assuming you take the tax out and then you'd be- What a pain in the ass. Yeah. But I guess they don't trust banks. I just feel like- Yeah, take the tax out and then you'd be... What a pain in the ass. Yeah. But I guess they don't trust banks.
Starting point is 00:34:06 I would just be like... Yeah, take the tax out. Yeah. I'd take a little... I'd be like, yeah, I can pay you cash, but I'm taking 20. Oh, they didn't have internet banking. They didn't have internet banking. But then you don't need internet banking.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Surely you'd go to the ATM yourself, right? Yeah. How do you do online shopping? That's me out. That's you gone. Yeah, how would you? What a right? Yeah. How do you do online shopping? That's me out. That's you gone. Yeah, how would you? What a punish. Yeah. Got paid in checks. At my first
Starting point is 00:34:34 radio job, I got paid in checks. And meat packs. Didn't you get a meat pack? Well, the meat pack would be if your check bounced. Oh, right. Okay, yeah, right. I got on very well with the guy in charge. Right. How did the IRD office take to you turning up with like a bit of mince as your taxpayer? Well, no, that wasn't the problem.
Starting point is 00:34:50 They would turn up and want 20% of the sausages. You were like, too late. I was keeping the IRD fed, you know, Friday afternoon sausage sizzle, thanks to the people working at the generator in Hamilton. Next on the show, Megan's face has become an issue on social media. It's been discussed
Starting point is 00:35:11 in comments online. Thanks for that. Play ZM's Fleshphone and Megan. Did I turn that off or did you not turn it on? You turned it off. You always fiddle with your buttons. You're not going to help the spree that I was reading yesterday. Megan made the mistake of reading a comment section.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I thought you were going to say of having a face. Not just our comment section, a comment section of which was about this show. There was a wee snippet of our show. A wee snippet. Because lots of people think that we talk about the vaccine 24-7 all the time. We haven't talked... Oh, yeah, we have. We've talked about it once today. Hey, I mean, sue us for wanting people to be safe
Starting point is 00:36:00 and have some freedom in a summer. Yeah, so there was a snippet that went out onto some news sites yesterday of us talking about the vaccine. Vaughan was comparing it to, I thought it was a great analogy of a seatbelt. What was your analogy again? You wear it and it keeps you safe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Not every time you go in the car, there's going to be an accident. Yeah. But your best chance of surviving a car accident is a seatbelt. Yeah. Now. What about this one? The comment section. There's a cruise ship, right?
Starting point is 00:36:33 Oh, yeah, yeah. I like this one. Now, it's used that one that Costa Concordia. Yeah. But it's just a bit of imagery. Yeah. There's a story about people on a boat. One guy decided to dig through the floor of his cabin.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Water flows and the other passengers are pissed, but it's his own cabin. And the guy argues, why One guy decided to dig through the floor of his cabin. Water flows in. The other passengers are pissed, but it's his own cabin. And the guy argues, why should it matter to you? It's only my cabin. But you're sinking the boat? Yeah. Personal choice. I'm going to go so far.
Starting point is 00:36:53 We're all on the same boat. Look at that. That's good stuff. I have a blanket rule for the sake of my own mental health to not read comments. Often I don't even open the text machine. Sometimes I get into the comments and then I start clicking on people's profile and I'm like, wow.
Starting point is 00:37:09 I can see why you said this. I don't do it for stuff on vaccines and I definitely don't do it on stuff that involves me. Right. So I broke two rules yesterday and I looked at the comments. There was a lot, but one of them, shout out to Terry, who commented.
Starting point is 00:37:28 By all indications from his profile picture, is a supermodel. Yeah, well, it doesn't like. It looks like he's an international model. With a name like Terry. Terry said in this video, watch Megan's face, though. She looks like she's trying to convince herself to believe the lie they're telling. Lolol.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Because the clip is of us saying that we're not asked to talk about the vaccine we choose to. We're certainly not told to because if we're told to do anything, we won't do it. We won't do it. Yeah. That's had 65 likes and lots of laughy faces.
Starting point is 00:38:02 For your unconvincing face. I'm glad everyone's getting a kick out of my face. That's just what my face looked like. That's just what your face looks like when you're listening. Or when I'm just absolutely sick of hearing from these people. But yeah, I'm so glad everyone got a kick out of commenting on my face yesterday. That actually really upset me though, because we weren't, we, why do I even bother?
Starting point is 00:38:22 Don't worry about it. I don't like being called a liar. Thank you very much. But someone said, the Vax is not like wearing a seatbelt, Vaughn. The Vax is putting something inside of you. And I do appreciate Mike's comment that said, you can put a seatbelt inside of you if you try hard enough. Comment of the day to Mike there. Good work, Mike.
Starting point is 00:38:43 ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan. In New Zealand, more than 60% of the almost 50,000 tonnes of food thrown out by hospitality and retail sectors are still edible. 60,000 tonnes? 50,000 tonnes. Okay, sorry, 60%. A million tonnes? That's a lot. It is a lot.
Starting point is 00:39:02 It's still edible. And so this isn't a new app, but it is new to Wellington. So Foodprint has been in Auckland for a while now, but now Wellingtonians can join Foodprint. So the idea... But we've talked about this before, this app. We have. Yes.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Because my cafe was signed up to it. So the idea is basically you connect with restaurants, cafes, food retailers, and instead of them throwing out food that is at the end of the day or they don't want to, you know, you can't put it out the next day, they put it up from between 30% to 90% discount. Right. And you can check retailers and cafes near you and go and get cheap food, cheap lunch.
Starting point is 00:39:42 So would you put that up like an hour before you shut? Yeah. Okay, right. And then, well, I mean, you can put it up any time of the day. What would be an example of food that couldn't be cabineted the next day? Like sandwiches. You couldn't do a sandwich the second day? No, I reckon some places do. You bite into them and you're like,
Starting point is 00:40:00 this is two days old. Yeah. Or you wouldn't really want to. Especially if it's got like meat in it. Yeah, yeah. Or salad and stuff. Any creamy things? Like what about a donut? Two days max. We never had.
Starting point is 00:40:11 You never had any left over. I don't know. Because donuts would go stale. Yeah, what about a kazi square? A kazi square would probably last another day. Are you frigid? I always thought. Slices and cakes would last a bit longer.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I always thought a kazi was just like absolutely, you know, like isn't custard bacterial in itself? It seems really spongy, like it could soak up some bad stuff. But you're refrigerating it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Refrigerating. Okay, so end of day two, there's a kazi square going, is there?
Starting point is 00:40:42 Yeah. So, yeah, you can just go on there and look at places near you and they could be offering up, you know, like some of their, I mean, it was made a little bit earlier, but it's cheap food. Because, you know, in the supermarket, I love a reduced to clear item. Me too. I love a reduced to clear. I will always buy reduced to clear stuff.
Starting point is 00:41:03 That you don't need because you're like, this used to be 10 bucks. No, but even because I buy stuff, like I'll go to the supermarket because I live next door to a supermarket. I'll go every day or two. So I'll normally be buying for that night or then. So I don't mind buying something that's reduced to clear because I'm going to eat it that day. Is there, what's the best day for reduced to clear stuff?
Starting point is 00:41:21 I reckon there's a day. No, it's every day for like your deli or your meats or all kinds of stuff. Because I went recently and it felt like all of the meat was like half price.
Starting point is 00:41:33 Right, there's a big reduced to clear freezer. Might have been Thursday. I think they just go through it. There's someone at mine that's always going through it and they're looking at the best before dates
Starting point is 00:41:41 and if they're saying it's close, they're like, chuck a sticker on it. So good. And I'm like, I'll take that. Do you know,
Starting point is 00:41:46 speaking of this app, I forgot to tell you guys. Guess what? What? He lives in an Uber Eats map zone now. Oh! They extended you.
Starting point is 00:41:55 You know, thank you. Congratulations. Yeah, I literally did nothing but I'll take this round of applause. We're in the same zone
Starting point is 00:42:00 but now you're going to realise that there's only like three eateries on there. No, I was surprised. Oh really. But there seems to be some sort of additional rural fee. Yeah, because you live in the middle of nowhere. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:11 It's a farmlet fee. But somebody I've never met lives up the road and they were like, okay, so I've seen you run past my place and I want you to know you must live close. And I was like, well that's insulting. That makes it look like I can't run very fast. This is a stranger on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Yeah. I've seen you run past our place, which means that you're probably within the new Uber Eats area. I was like, shut your face. And I checked and yeah. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:40 You finally got Uber Eats. So you'll be running past their place some more then. Yeah. After all these Uber Eats. I will need to. I will running past their place some more then. After all these Uber Eats. I will need to. I will certainly need to. Play ZM's Flesh Fauna Megan. Megan Trano and her husband, who is Daryl Sabara.
Starting point is 00:42:53 He's a Spy Kids dude. Yeah, because when you said Megan Trano's husband before, I'm like, who's she married to? Because he is somebody and he's a guy of Spy Kids. Right. And he's 29 now. What's she been doing? She's releasing music.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Oh, that's nice. Kind of like a one hit wonder. I just love it when you say that. They love that. What have you been doing? Just my craft for ages. Thanks for listening. Five more albums after that one song everybody knew.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Oh, cool. That's cool. So they've recently moved into a new house and they were very much involved in the design and construction. So when they did the couple's bathroom, they requested something a little bit different. His and
Starting point is 00:43:35 her showers or you know, I've always thought a double shower heads would be cool. People always do the double basins with the mirrors, which is great because you can get ready at the same time. Yeah. But, like, how cool would double showers be?
Starting point is 00:43:50 So cool. But then you'd have to have good pressure. I wouldn't forego the pressure. Otherwise you'd get angry at your partner for trying to shower at the same time as you because you'd be like, yeah, this is good, and then they'd jump in and steal half the pressure. Yeah. I'd need to sort the pressure out, but that would be absolutely amazing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:06 So she said when they built the new house, they were kind of like, is there anything weird or special you want? And so she was like, can we please have two toilets next to each other? His and hers toilets. They literally have, exactly how you're picturing it in your mind, two normal toilets side by side. You probably wouldn't even be able to stand in between them. They're that close it in your mind. Two normal toilets, side by side. You probably wouldn't even be able to stand in between them.
Starting point is 00:44:27 They're that close. Really? Yeah. She said that because they had a baby, they often have to pee at the same time. But wouldn't you have a toilet in another room? You go to separate toilets. But yeah, and then she said,
Starting point is 00:44:42 to put everyone's mind at ease, we've only pooped together twice. So why do you need these toilets? If it's something that's only occurred twice. No, on these toilets at the same time. No, but that's what I'm saying. They've only needed to poop at the same time twice. Well, no, because they pee together often.
Starting point is 00:45:01 Does he sit down to pee? I don't know. Surely not. It might be a good chance for them to catch up. But then that would be weird if someone was sitting and you were standing
Starting point is 00:45:09 and you were peeing right beside each other. Also, like, it doesn't matter how much you love your partner, poos is poos. Yuck. I am not,
Starting point is 00:45:18 we don't have an open door policy in the bathroom. Right. Showering, yes, not when you go into the toilet. Well, I was all about the open door policy until Sade critiqued my wipe. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:29 And then I was like, you know what? You can't be here for my wipe. You can be here for my business, but you can't be here for my wipe. Oh, okay. She laughed at me because I stood. She laughed because I stood. We'd been married for like- I stand.
Starting point is 00:45:39 I know. We'd been married for nine years. So we'd been together 15 years. And she's like, wait a minute, what's going on here? I'm like, what do you mean? She's like, you stand to wipe? I'm like, I'm not sitting and wiping. I'm not sitting and wiping.
Starting point is 00:45:52 I'm a stand to wiper. I'm a guy thing though, because like you're used to standing for half the time in your toiletries anyway. Yeah. Oh, stand to wipe. Angles. Yeah, angles. Really get in there. Yeah, really get in there.
Starting point is 00:46:04 I don't need my husband to know about if I stand or sit. Do you know what he does? No. I reckon he'd be a sitter. Okay. What does that mean? A sit and wipe. And a foam.
Starting point is 00:46:17 I was going to say he probably takes a quainter dump. I know he does a dab for number ones. Because the toilet paper gets torn up on the roll and I'm like, what happens there? Oh, does he not take a whole square? He tears some off. What?
Starting point is 00:46:30 No, he doesn't take a whole square. Even if you're going to dab after a number one just to, you know, clean up any residue. I don't have one. I can't comment. I'll take a whole square.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Right. It's not World War II. We're not rationing loom paper. Yeah, does he hang the tea bags out to give them to the guy? I mean, come on. Does he wash a plastic bag for another? No, no. We're not rationing loo paper. Yeah, does he hang the tea bags out to give them to the guys? Come on. Does he wash a plastic bag for another?
Starting point is 00:46:48 No, no. Well, off the back of Megan Trainor and her husband sitting side by side on matching toilets, we'd like to know what you and your partner do that is a little bit weird. Gross and cutesy. It could be cutesy, yeah. That everyone else is like, you do what? I could almost imagine
Starting point is 00:47:06 you and Mr Toyboy having matching toilets. There's bound to be something we do that everyone thinks is weird, but when you're in it, I don't think it's weird. What do we do? We're very, like, very lovey-dovey. Right. So you want those kind of things that
Starting point is 00:47:21 show how close couples are that some people might find a bit like when couples pick each other's pimples yeah some people do that with people they're not even partners with that yeah that's weird
Starting point is 00:47:32 how long do you leave it before you I don't like stranger pass you what I don't like stranger pass oh I thought you said
Starting point is 00:47:38 I like strangers pass I was like you must leave yeah how long do you dive in for a pimple pop how long do you leave it? He doesn't let me, ever.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Right. Right. Okay. All right. Well, 0800DARLS.M is the number you can text as well. 9696. How close are you with your partner? Is there something you do that people are like, nah.
Starting point is 00:47:58 But we're talking about those gross, weird little habits you have as a couple. You're so close and other people think, oh, that's weird. Yeah. Megan Trainor and her husband have matching toilets next to each other so they can poop at the same time. We are endeavouring to get somebody on the phone. We just hope they answer when we call. Oh, please answer.
Starting point is 00:48:19 It's out there, man. It's the weirdest. Erica, what do you and your partner do? We often share toothbrushes. Wait, wait. You only have one toothbrush, or in a pinch you would use each other's toothbrush? Well, it's more my partner than me,
Starting point is 00:48:36 but I will have a toothbrush, and he just won't buy one or won't get one, so he just uses mine more often than not. They're like $3, Erica. I know. I didn't know about it for a while until he kind of confessed to it, and then I guess I just was like, oh, well, he's been doing it for so long, I guess
Starting point is 00:48:53 I don't really mind anymore. Yeah, it's gross, but in a pinch, you'd let it happen. But he's just... Yeah. Wow. Good luck out there. Good luck. I mean, he kissed the dude. Anything in his mouth is probably in your mouth anyway. Exactly. Some messages in.
Starting point is 00:49:08 So many coming in. A reply on Instagram. I let him shave my armpits. You let him. So that means he's arsed. No, I wouldn't let anyone shave me. You're the razor? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:19 You're not a control. The angle, the pressure. I tell you what, we're hearing from a few people who've got the old dual shower head. Oh, good stuff. Yes. And do they recommend it? As long as the pressure. Or does it make the shower pressure go half and half?
Starting point is 00:49:35 I know they said it's fine, but I guess they built their house, so they must have specifically, you know, that must have been as specific. They are living the dream, these people. But no reports of matching toilets. Somebody said we're a nine-hour drive away from each other, but we still do all of our business on FaceTime together, like even have showers at the same time. Your phone would get foggy.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Oh, just so I call you back in five, I'm having a shower. I could understand if you sat down for a long toilet break, you might keep on FaceTime. How close are you and your partner? It started out weird and now I just, I don't know, I feel dirty. Guys, you are grim. How close are you and your partner? Maybe other people find these habits gross.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Jennifer, what do you and your partner do? Every time we have a cappuccino or a frothy sort of coffee together, I give him the froth off my coffee. That's pretty cute. So do you, like, scoop it into his coffee so he's got extra froth? Yes. Or he'll just take the froth off the top and then I'll drink it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Will he go... See, you know what, Jennifer? Thank you, because that's cute. We needed the light-hearted one. Jennifer, if you've got fragile ears, I'd recommend just taking five because we are hearing from, yeah, there are some out there ones. Charlotte, what do you and your partner do? We share.
Starting point is 00:51:01 I'm a little bit like, oh, God, hopefully someone else does this. We share the same towel after the shower. Oh, okay. And do you put the towel back and use it every day or do you get a clean one every day? Well, no, we do change it out a lot more regularly than others. So I guess that's probably the bonus. But I sort of guess we're like, it's a clean body, which we're just drying it. Yeah, but who goes first? I'm starting to assume that no one else does this, so we're like, it's a clean body. We're just drying it.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Yeah, but who goes first? I'm starting to assume that no one else does this, so I'm like, shit. Because men famously drag a lot more water out of the shower than females. This is very true. So we do change it a lot because my husband tends to sort of nab it first and I get quite pissed off with that. Right, yeah, you need to go first. If only you could have your own towel, Charlotte. Well, you know what? It's so far away. Yeah, yeah, you need to go first. If only you could have your own towel, Charlotte. Well, you know what?
Starting point is 00:51:46 It's so far away. Yeah, this is the compromise. Okay, well, you know what, Charlotte? That's not even on the worst end of things. You weren't the only text. You're not alone. You're not alone. Charlotte, thank you. Our message is in. My ex used to pick my belly button lint. She
Starting point is 00:52:03 considered it a real treat. Cuddle me up onto the couch, roll up my t-shirt and start... That's kind of cute. Picking the lint out. Um, yeah, there's... I tell you what, lots of people sharing towels. Lots of people saying that towels are absolutely... Oh, so not alone there. No, no, we cut each other's toenails.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Oh, I couldn't let someone do that to me. No, because that's like the shaving. You need to know how close you're going. But they get a pedicure, don't you? Yeah. And they shape your toenails and stuff. They're professionals. Don't you and Mr. Toyboy give each other food?
Starting point is 00:52:37 You feed each other? I feel like Vaughn's told you. Wasn't you told off? I've told somebody off for feeding another adult at the table. Yeah. We were out for dinner and they fed each other and I was like, excuse me, we're at a restaurant and we were all adults. But I don't know, I feel like...
Starting point is 00:52:54 More than likely. Definitely you are capable of it, but I feel like... Right. There's not too many people I'd be comfortable telling off in public. You are one of them. Well, the things that you do with your partner, the close things you do that other people might find gross. Gazza?
Starting point is 00:53:07 Hey, team, how's it going? Good, thank you. How close are you and your wife? What do you do? I think some of the things, she helps me pee sometimes. She helps you pee? How does she do it? She holds it?
Starting point is 00:53:23 Yeah, yeah. So when we first got together, it was sort of, you know, love at first sight and whatnot. And she sort of yelled one time from the lounge, you know, do you need some help? And I was like, yeah, sure, go on. So she came flying in. But when I'm flying in, she could have meant anything.
Starting point is 00:53:42 Yeah. Yeah, and proceeded to hold it and shake it. Not more than twice, otherwise, you know. Yeah, that's the rules. Yeah. Okay. So she does this more than once. She's done this more than once.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Oh, at least once, maybe once a week. It's fascinating for women because we're not used to pointing and aiming. So I kind of get it. That's the good thing is that if she misses then I can just keep blaming her. Dude. Gazza, thank you for sharing. Alright, thanks. Have a good one. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 00:54:17 Yeah, you too, Gazza. This text kind of y'all need Jesus. Y'all need Jesus Y'all need Jesus Not wrong I'm happy that Gazer and his wife are happy You know Somebody said I bought one of those things
Starting point is 00:54:32 And I've seen these advertised They look like a pen spring Like you know You know springs from inside pens Yeah Maybe a little more tightly wound On the end of a stick Yeah
Starting point is 00:54:43 And they To get earwax out of your ear. Because the idea is you just put them in and then you just twist them in. Oh, that doesn't sound good. It's better than, because when you go in with a cotton bud, it can just push it down. Now I've got a gaping ear hole, so I've got no problem with a cotton bud. I can go in and absolutely clean as a whistle. But since we've got this machine, since we've got this stick,
Starting point is 00:55:00 I love cleaning my partner's air wax out with it. It's an absolute treat. I chew the skin off my husband's fingers when mine are too sort of chewed. Oh no, that's nasty. I do that to myself. I wouldn't do it to another human. Yeah. Because you wouldn't know when to stop. Because you know when to stop on yourself
Starting point is 00:55:20 because it starts to hurt. A few pimple poppers. A A few pimple poppers. A few back pimple poppers. That's the light end of the stick, really. There's some we can't read. What about the
Starting point is 00:55:34 are you going to read out the lesbians one? Yeah, when my partner does wheeze I'm not going to be sick. I just realised I need to catch up with your swallowing. Okay, me too. Are we all. Catch up with your swallowing. Yeah. Okay. Me too. Are we all up to date with our swallowing?
Starting point is 00:55:49 Yeah. These lesbians have got us worked up, haven't they? No. You know what? For the first time in my life, I can proudly say they haven't. When my partner is going wheeze, I'll just sit on her lap for a few extra cuddles. Wow. Just wait a minute and then get cuddles.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Why just sit on someone's lap on a toilet? They're happy. I mean, they said it works both ways. They both will do it to each other. Right. Okay. I'm going to try that today. I was going to say, don't knock it till you try it.
Starting point is 00:56:22 I'm going to bust the door open like the Kool-Aid jug. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And then she's going to be like don't knock it till you try it. I'm going to bust the door open like the Kool-Aid jug. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And then she's going to be like, what are you doing? And I'm going to be like, it's time for some extra cuddles, baby. And then I'm going to sit on her lap. And tomorrow when she divorces me, Fletch, I'm going to need to stay in your spare room. Absolutely.

Soundkeeper Al's is standing by and we welcome Kate. Good morning. Hello.
Starting point is 00:57:12 All right, Kate. You sound very happy this morning, very chipper. I am. Oh, my gosh, I would have pressed that redial button, I reckon, about 90-something times. Well, it worked. I got through. It's worked, it's worked. You managed to get through.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Now, Soundkeeper Owls is standing by. This is the secret sound. A lot of people think maybe it's wooden or is it something clicking into place or rolling into place? Yeah. Sliding. What do you think it is, Kate, for $10,000? So what I thought is once a vaccination needle, you've had your vaccination, right?
Starting point is 00:57:53 Yep. And the needle is, the used needle is getting disposed of, like put into that used needle disposer. So it clicks down, you know, once the nurse has done their thing and the needle clicks into that disposer. So it clicks down, you know, once the nurse has done their thing and the needle clicks into that disposer. Do you sometimes see those in, like, public toilets where people can dispose of it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, same thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Right. Did you hear this when you got vaccinated? Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, that yellow box that they have attached to the wall, that safety disposer box. So I just thought, oh, yeah, that yellow box that they have attached to the wall, that safety disposal box. So I just thought, oh, you know, vaccination is so massive at the moment. And I thought, oh, my gosh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:32 We are being paid to tell everyone about it, aren't we? No, we're part of the media. That was sarcasm. Soundkeeper Owls, are you vaccinated? I am. I'm double vaxxed, baby. Double vaxxed. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Well, that means you've had two opportunities to record that sound. That is true. I could have brought my little recorder device into the booth. I am scared of getting vaccines, though. So was I focused on getting it recorded? Are you scared of the needle? Yes, a little bit. It was a bit of a moment.
Starting point is 00:59:10 But I'm okay. Did you see the thing, quick side note, did you see the thing that's been developed? It was on 7 Sharp last night. They've developed, like, it's a phobia thing. You wear, like, augmented reality goggles and it slowly gets you used to the things you're scared of. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:59:22 It's been developed by this, yeah, it's been developed by this Auckland company. It's very futuristic. Well, for $10,000 Is it the secret sound? No, I'm sorry Katie, it is not.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Hello. Please. Okay. Thank you for the opportunity. Not a bad guess. We do have this week, though, every guess it gets on here, a one-month Neon subscription. So you've got that.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Yay. Thank you so much. Well done. Awesome. And 11 o'clock is your next shot at the Secret Sound Thanks to Neon with Georgia. ZDM's Fletch, Ron and Megan. Well, earlier in the week, was it Tuesday?
Starting point is 01:00:07 It was Tuesday, yeah. Tuesday. I got a speeding ticket on the way to work. My bad. In Vaud's defence, they moved the signs. They changed the speed limit. It was an 80 and they've moved the 60 a few more hundred metres down and I got pinged just going into the new 60 going 80.
Starting point is 01:00:27 But somehow that defence didn't stop you from getting a ticket. No. And so then I've ever since, gosh, I've just been really paying extra attention to the signs. I've been obeying the speed limit. Yeah. You're on good behaviour. But this morning on the way to work I got pulled over again.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Same place or different? No, no, no. This was on like the side of the motorway. So different cop? Different cop. Okay. Different cop. So this is why yesterday Fletch messaged me saying don't hate me and I was like oh my god what have you done? What?
Starting point is 01:01:01 What have you done? Don't hate me but I need you to come in here. That's done? Don't hate me, but I need you to come in here. Because I'm beautiful. Don't hate me, but you're going to need to bail me out. Yeah, yeah. Don't hate me, but I'm the gang leader that... I've been caught going to Carpia with these baggies. With drugs.
Starting point is 01:01:18 And I'm in trumps. Don't hate me, but I'm going to have to recall my bicycle and pump. Or two later, I hate you. For wanting to bring your own back. You have been enjoying in lockdown level three here in Auckland using my bicycle. But no, it's this push that makes me need to purchase my own
Starting point is 01:01:35 bicycle. Yeah, well I've been walking, because I've been doing walks. Yeah. And now I'm allowed to cycle, my physio says. Oh. Progress guys, progress. And I've seen heaps of, my physio says. Oh. Progress, guys, progress. And I've seen heaps of bike shops open. But I don't know if they let you try them out. No, I don't think so. Because you want to try them.
Starting point is 01:01:51 You want to try before you buy the old bicycle. So you said you've done your online physio and he wants me to get out there hitting the roads back. I said, absolutely not a problem. I'll bring it in tomorrow. So I, this morning before coming to work, gave myself an extra five to safely load fletcher's bike onto the back of the car the car i took shardae's car because it's got a tow bar
Starting point is 01:02:11 and we've got one of those old things from the 1980s that like screws onto the toe the old bike and i think pretty sure i stole it from my parents One of those things where one day you're like, I'm going to borrow this. And they're like, don't answer. And you're like, mine. So I got my lawnmower too. Can I buy a lawnmower? My old lawnmower. Can I buy a lawnmower? Okay.
Starting point is 01:02:33 And they didn't miss a lawnmower. I think they just forced their hand to buy a new one. Oh, yeah. Okay. So, yeah, I've got this bike rack. So I put that on. Load your bike on. Safely secure it.
Starting point is 01:02:45 Did you use one of those elastic bandy stretchy things? It's an old tire tube. Oh, okay, that doesn't sound safe. You hook it over the top and then you tie it around the bottom. Okay. And then I also, because I am aware that if you don't tie the tire to the frame, the handle can go flop, flop, flop on the way in. So I tied that.
Starting point is 01:03:06 Secure load. I'm on the way to work. I'm not breaking the speed limit because I've set the cruise control in Sade's car. Okay. To 109 kilometres an hour. It's 110 they get you. I reckon they'll let it slide. That's not a thing.
Starting point is 01:03:21 At that time in the morning, they're going to let you hit 110. Unless your speedo's out by one and you're going 110. Right, okay. But then you're going to be like, come on. So you get a ticket for going 109. No. I get pulled over. No ticket issued.
Starting point is 01:03:35 They just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing an early morning barrier break. Because I had a bike on the back. It looked like I'd packed up the family and we were trying to get out of town for the school holidays. Because it's school holidays as well. And I'm driving our Santa Fe, so family vehicle. Bike on the back. Really early in the morning. I'm fitting.
Starting point is 01:03:53 I'm ticking all the boxes. I'm being an entitled prank with a beach house, you know. Except you don't have the beach house. I don't have the beach house. No. So they pull over and there was the usual, like you get pulled over and then they wait a bit and they're obviously just running your plates to make sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:07 They need to work out if they need the shotgun out of the boot. They come out and they're like, get out of the car. And he's like, hi. And I was like, good morning. And he's like, where are you off to? And I said, work. And it's the first time I've shown my essential workers letter. Oh.
Starting point is 01:04:23 Damn it. I'm amazed that you even printed that out and have it in the car. No, I'm executive intern. Anya printed it out for me. And I put it in my bag. I said, it's in here somewhere. And I was like, you know how my bag's like literally. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:34 My bag's just full of all this crazy junk. Was it covered in squished banana? Yeah. Yeah, there was a bit of old banana. There's some masks. What's that? Some stickers. A book about Kiwi toilets.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Yeah. Great. And then I found my essential workers letter. about Kiwi toilets. Yeah, great. And then I found my essential workers letter and it was like, oh yeah, so not off for a holiday. I was like, oh God, I wish, eh? And it was like... And we both cried. Okay. And I thought it was very therapeutic for the both of us.
Starting point is 01:05:03 Okay, great. Because, you know, this man is a front line officer. Absolutely. He's probably seen some bloody awful things. Oh, yeah. All the time. Let alone now. So we cried.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Yeah. Had it been a different level, we may have embraced. Yeah. But we didn't embrace. Right. And then he just let you on your way. And then he was like, have a good day. I said, you also have a great day.
Starting point is 01:05:21 That's lovely. And then went to work. Do you think it was in his system that two days earlier you'd been caught speeding? Different car. Oh, yes. Different car, but same licence. Yeah, but he looked at the licence
Starting point is 01:05:36 but it wasn't like he scanned it like last time. He was literally just like, what's up? Yeah, right. I'm not off to the beach house. We can only dream. Yeah, right. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:06:27 to switch off the radio, I could sing, but it's probably not the best idea. No, this is good. At least you know your own ability there, Samantha.
Starting point is 01:06:34 We won't see you making a fool of yourself in the first few episodes of a televised talent show, will we? No. Samantha, tell us what happened on this date.
Starting point is 01:06:42 So I chatted with this guy on Tinder and then he sort of said, let's go out for dinner. So I chatted with this guy on Tinder, and then he sort of said, let's go out for dinner. So we went out for dinner, and we sort of got some food, and, like, the conversation was pretty stale. And so then it came to, like, the waiter coming up and asking if we wanted desserts, and I was kind of like, surely not.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Like, we're not going to go ahead with this. And he just ordered two desserts, and I was like, okay. I wasn't really that keen on it. Two desserts? Like, one for him, one for me. What desserts did he order, though? Tell me the flavours. Oh, they were chocolate brownies. Two chocolate brownies. I know wrong with chocolate brownie,
Starting point is 01:07:18 yeah. Okay, okay. So it was good, like, but then I had some of it, but I wasn't that hungry, so then he like, ended up finishing off mine. Yeah. But then I had some of it, but I wasn't that hungry. So then he, like, ended up finishing off mine. Yeah. And then I went off to the toilet, just sort of before we, like, part ways and whatnot. Okay.
Starting point is 01:07:35 And then I come back out and he's not at the table. And I was like, okay. Maybe he's just gone to the toilet himself. Okay. About, I want to say about maybe 10 minutes went by and I'm kind of sitting there, I'm like, this has been a while, like, kind of excessive on a date to go to the toilet himself. Okay. About, I want to say about maybe 10 minutes went by and I'm kind of sitting there, I'm like, this has been a while, like kind of excessive on a date
Starting point is 01:07:48 to go to the toilet for that long. So I went to the bathroom and a guy was coming out and I said to him, is there anybody else in there? And he's like, no, no, there's nobody in there. And I was like, okay. So I was kind of like,
Starting point is 01:08:01 I wanted to think the best in people. So I kind of just was like, what do I do here? Like, I don't want to just leave. And then I hop onto Tinder where we were chatting and he's unmatched me, which means he's no longer in my chats for me to message him. Oh my God. He dine and dashed.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Yeah, and I was like, this is really awkward. So then I go up to like the register to talk to them about like paying for it and he didn't pay for anything. He literally just left and I was kind of like, I'm pretty sure he planned this from the get go. Oh my god! Because why would he have ordered desserts? Like that was where I was like, okay, this
Starting point is 01:08:37 conversation's not great. Why would we continue this any longer? And I think he did it and then he finished mine and I was like, dude, this guy's just trying to get a full on meal. And then he finished mine and I was like, dude, this guy's just trying to get a full on meal. And then he scarps. And he left, yeah. Had beers,
Starting point is 01:08:49 had some ribs. I can't be angry at the guy who had beer and ribs and brownie. Those were faves. I would have asked the restaurant
Starting point is 01:08:58 for the security camera footage and I would have like got my money's worth out of paying for his dinner. Spread it online. He was like, I'm not paying for it and was like, I think money's worth out of paying for his dinner. Spread it online. He was like, I think Tinder's not for me. So you never, like, tracked him down afterwards or never heard about him ever again?
Starting point is 01:09:14 Well, there's not really a whole lot of personal details on Tinder, you know. It's just the name. Once he blocks you. Yeah, once he's done that, it's kind of like, I didn't have his phone number. I didn't know, like, his surname to find him on Facebook and be like, dude, you owe me half his meal. You've really got to stalk these people pre-date, Samantha. Get her Instagram, get his number.
Starting point is 01:09:34 Well, when you're married for a period of time and then you become single, you're kind of new to this whole Tinder buzz. Oh, my God, that's my worst nightmare, that I'll get dumped and have to go on Tinder. All right, Samantha, how much did this date come to after he dined and dashed you? It cost me $170.90. $170.
Starting point is 01:09:56 Is that P-O-S? Yeah. So what part of the country are you in? In Hamilton. In Hamilton, okay. So what's his name? First name. But you said you never found out his last name, right?
Starting point is 01:10:09 No, I never found out his last name. So let's have a... It was Jeff. Jeff? Oh, don't go on a date with a Jeff. What sort of age range is Jeff? He was 35. Jeff was 35.
Starting point is 01:10:20 And what was this? According to his Tinder profile. That was this year? Yeah. Or would Jeff be older than that? Yeah, it was back in May. Okay, in May. We just hear a 35-year-old called Jeff in Hamilton. Dine and dash.
Starting point is 01:10:31 Dine and dash. And our friend Samantha. With the bill. That is unbelievable. Be warned. He contacts ZM so I can get my money back. Yes, Jeff. Do the right thing, Jeff.

Starting point is 01:11:32 ZDM's Fletchborn and Megan. Fact of the day, day what the best thing before sliced bread was. The best thing since sliced bread. Since sliced bread. The best thing since a loaf of bread. When sliced bread was announced, it was referred to as the greatest step forward in the baking industry since bread was wrapped. Oh, the greatest thing since bread was wrapped. So before you said this is the best thing since sliced bread.
Starting point is 01:12:15 Yeah. Which if you've tried to cut your own loaf over lockdown, maybe you baked your own loaf. One side's always thick. The other side is thin. Yeah, and if it's like super fresh bread and you're going through it with the knife, you can't push down on it or you'll squish your bread. It's a tough one.
Starting point is 01:12:35 You squish your bread. It's hard out there. It's tough. It's the last thing I needed. Luckily, they slice it for you. Yeah, I know. So good. So good.
Starting point is 01:12:46 But what about buns? What about if you're making burgers and you've got to slice your own buns? Most burger buns are pre-sliced now, though, aren't they? Have you tried those bread-ish buns yet? No. Oh, I haven't tried those ones you recommended. From the supermarket. You simply must.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Are they made in New Zealand? No. They must be. No, they must be. You wouldn't get internationally shipped bread. That's bloody be. No, they must be. You wouldn't get internationally shipped bread. That's bloody madness. No, they must be. It's madness.

Starting point is 01:17:04 A sneeze I always think like, you know, a sneeze. I always think about when I see Formula One. I'm like, they're going so fast. Not necessarily sneezes, but I'm like, if just one little thing went wrong and they're like, ah,
Starting point is 01:17:15 like a rabbit ran on the road. I even think like, if I was busting and I had to drive a Formula One car, that would still affect my driving. Yeah. Oh my God, I was busting. Yeah, but you imagine if you were driving a Formula One car and you were going my driving. Yeah. Oh my God, that's exhausting. Yeah, but you imagine

Oh my God!
Starting point is 01:20:07 So what had happened was... Oh wait, so it went in under the air that you would usually sneeze out, went under the skin? Went under the skin and straight up through into the eye socket there, champ. Oh no! I love it how everyone's just laughing at you, like no one's like, um, Mason are you okay? Oh exactly, I thought my joke was hilarious but it turns out it wasn't a joke at all. And so did you have to leave your brother's wedding and just go to hospital?

Starting point is 01:22:04 they just carried on. I had a condition where I had to have a C-section, so I wasn't allowed was really in labour. A few weeks later, because those contractions never stopped, they just carried on. I had a condition where I had to have a C-section, so I wasn't allowed to be in labour. So not knowing the difference, it was, you know, nearly catastrophic. Turns out it was all triggered by the car crash. The guy behind me had sneezed. What? Wow.
