ZM. Hit music. Lives here. Fletch Forna Megan. The podcast. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fletch Forna Megan. Two minutes past six. Well, we have lost a member of our bubble this morning. Just this morning. Yeah. Producer Jared had to leave our bubble. What is his family? Has he told his family or are they maybe turning into the radio and hearing this for the first time? We don't know. He's literally gone straight to hospital. He was grabbing his appendix, wasn't the first time? We don't know. He's literally gone straight to hospital. He, well,

he was grabbing his appendix, wasn't he? So I think my appendix, I think I've got appendicitis and he just sent a photo, like that was, when did we see him?

5.30? And he just sent a photo from the hospital in a gown, in bed. On a bed. So, yeah.

God, he timed that right if he'd left that a couple of weeks. Imagine that because they've got, if you do have appendicit that right if he'd left that a couple of weeks. Imagine that. Because if you do have appendicitis, if your appendix bursts, correct me if I'm wrong, but they've got to operate pretty quickly. It means you don't want it to burst, right?

You don't, yeah. Because that's life-threatening, yeah. Well, he's in the best place now. Wow. Does that mean he's allowed to come back into our bubble? I don't know Not for a couple of weeks But then he's going to have to

He's going to have to We'll have to get an official ruling on that Yeah Like who do we ask? Jacinda Jacinda, okay, right Do you think she's sick of being asked specific COVID-19 related questions?

She's like please go to the website Go on, go to the website That's why I keep saying the website name. I can't find on the website. A lot of community notices still being sent in, community pages. Wow, everybody's got time

to just be wandering around their communities. So, yeah, there's problems afoot. There's problems arising. All right, we'll deal with some of those soon, before seven.

Also, the top six is coming up. Yeah, the top six mega rich problems in these troubled times. Some very rich people are letting us know. It's not easy being them. We'll tell you some of their problems. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Jenny Craig, the weight loss company, has been deemed kind of... Owned by Nestle?

Yeah. Or Mars. you were talking about that the giant loop it's so naughty isn't it they get you hopped on bloody milky bars and then they're like congratulations here's a Snickers

yeah you get a Snickers when you sign up and then you just end you're back you're back six months you're back it's how they get you it's a vicious cycle

yeah you can stick to it I did it I remember you did it like what was it 10 years ago? I would have made? 12. 12, yeah.

Wow. Yeah. I've operated since then. I yo-yo. I'm allowed to say that yo-yo because I do yo-yo. It's offensive if you don't yo-yo to say yo-yo. Yeah, you can't say that. But I do, so that's my word.

You're allowed to. You do you. So Jenny Craig apparently will carry on. Now, employees weren't stoked on it. Because if you've never done Jenny Craig, basically what happens is you have a weekly appointment. You go every week. You tell them the good parts of the week,

the bad parts of the week. Maybe you had a slip-up and fell face-first into a whole carrot cake like I did yesterday and ate it cream cheese icing and all. By the way, that cake you made, one of the week. Maybe you had a slip up and fell face first into a whole carrot cake like I did yesterday and ate it cream cheese icing and all. By the way, that cake you made, one of the nicest

banana cakes I've ever had. You had cream cheese cake and also my banana cake. No, it wasn't that. What icing did you have on that? No, he had buttercream. Oh, buttercream. Buttercream.

Which is literally butter and sugar. Daddy like. The yo-yo. I'm going up, baby. Oh, yes. I'm on the way up We all are mate

We all are Well at least we're all In this boat together And it's sinking rapidly Because we're all Putting on too much weight Yeah So

They thought Sorry yeah you go in You talk about your highs Your lows They weigh you Yeah And then you talk about What meals you liked

And then you plan Your next weeks of meals So you're in this person's face And they give you the food Don't they Yeah yeah yeah right And then they talk about what meals you liked, and then you plan your next weeks of meals. So you're in this person's face. And they give you the food, don't they? Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. And then they're like, give us five minutes, and they put it together, and then you take it home, chuck it in the freezer or whatever, and eat it as you need it.

But it is quite an intimate. Yeah, but maybe they're altering it. Maybe you're FaceTime in the car, and then they put your meals out. No, because that's what they wanted to do. Oh, really? That's what a Wellington branch manager said. She didn't consider it an essential service

as it said that it was whole food deliveries, meals on wheels and supermarket deliveries were the only food places that could do these sorts of deliveries apart from supermarkets. And she was told, no, no, carry on. She said, we'll do it all by phone. No, no, carry on. She said, oh, well, we do it all by phone.

No, no, carry on. Oh, no, that's not right. That's not good. They were identifying that this is a problem because they are sitting face-to-face in a small office with someone. Well, you can't even go to the physio, can you? No. Well, that's very touching.

That's very touching. The physio. Yeah. No, that's not right. No, it's not. No. And let's be honest, you're locked in. Jenny Craig that's not right. No, it's not. No. And let's be honest, you're locked in. Jenny Craig's out the window.

That's what, because Sade and I were talking about it at the weekend. If you just started Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig, you'd be like, I'll do this. I'll do it on the other side of this thing. Isn't this what we always say, though? If I didn't have to work, I could just exercise all day. Celebrities have it so easy. Celebrities have it so easy. Celebrities have it so easy. They get a trainer.

You know, they've just got months of training to get ready for a movie. They've got all the time in the world. Yeah. To cook. And our house is a mess too. You'd think of being at home all day, we'd clean it, but it's almost like Sade's like, yeah, no one's coming over. We're running a pretty minimal cleaning operation.

So it doesn't matter. I definitely think yesterday when I was out for some exercise, I'm seeing people that I don't think you'd normally see go for a walk. 100%. Do you reckon? I go for walks every day now and like I didn't do that previously. Because I just saw some guy yesterday in like

kind of like jean shorts and I was just like, you don't do this much, do you? Jeans shorts. They were like really tight jean shorts and I was like yeah, and I was like, You don't do walks much do you But you know good on him for getting outside Because it definitely makes you feel a little bit better Doesn't it

So Countdown is bringing back specials There was a lot of claims And I don't think it was just Countdown There was a lot of claims of price gouging Gouging eh? Gouging Yeah but? Gouging. Gouging. Yeah, but just not putting things on special that they usually have on special.

But then it was said that they didn't want to create panic buying. Like if something was cheaper, people would be like, well, that's cheaper, so I'll buy 10,000 of them. But I just thought it was cheeky. And then Pack and Save said last night usually they have about 45% of stuff in store on special. Right. And last week they had 40%. So they said we only had 5% of stuff in the store on special. Right. And last week they had 40%. So they said we only had 5% less stuff. Now I can't, you know, check that.

Well, you don't have the previous stats, do you? No. They could be sure. But for a supermarket to say, well, you need us, we're getting rid of specials. That is so cheeky. The reason they said they did it was because

we're feeding, this is from the managing director Natalie. She says we are feeding more people than we ever have in our history. We made the decision not to go ahead with planned promotions last week because we simply didn't have the stock in store for our customers. But they said because everything's like starting, everyone's

starting to stop the panic buying. We're starting to return to normal, they can bring them back. Does it sound like mum and dad told them off? It sounds like, yeah, it exactly sounds like that. There is, the government announced that there's an email now too, if you suspect or see anyone price gouging, it's pricewatch at mbie.govt.nz. So they're just giving us

lots of ways to narc. Yeah, I know. On everyone and everything. The other narc website, if you see, you know, people out congregating or maybe you think breaking the rules of isolation,

they've got, what, 4,000? Complaints in one day. Crash the website. Well, they opened it on Sunday and then yesterday it had 4,000 reports. What? Aish. Wow. But it's weird because I heard just It crashed the website. They opened it on Sunday, and then yesterday it had 4,000 reports. What?

Eww. Wow. But it's weird because I heard Jacinda announce this yesterday and talk about price gouging, and she said that the Fair Trading Act prohibits misleading and deceptive content and false representation. It's not illegal for a place to put their prices up, but if they don't have a good reason then that is illegal right yeah it's not illegal for a business to increase their prices

right and the reason you're doing it just be like i want to make more money see that's bad but then why would you as a business wouldn't you just say something like, oh, it's bougie hand sanitizer? Because I said to my friend, I was like, well, I'd love a big bottle of hand sanitizer, but they're nowhere. And he said, oh, the dairy by mine's got them. $30 for like a pump bottle or like a mini, like a, I don't know, 500 mils. Right. Wow.

$30. See, that's got to be price gouging, right? There were some places that were bringing in their own shipments, and they said they had to pay more to do that, so that's why the price had gone up. Yeah, right. But, yeah, I mean, you just never know. But I said to my friend, I was like, well, there's an email now.

You can knock on the mail. He's like, oh, it's just a little dairy. I was like, fair enough. But can you just not sell hand sanitizer for $30 and be like, if you don't like it, go somewhere else? Or is that the problem? Because there's nowhere else to go. Yeah, and you're limited as to where you're actually allowed to go.

It's close to go. They've got us, haven't they? They have. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Next on the show, the top six. Yeah, the top six problems that the mega rich are facing. Guys, this is serious, guys. This disease doesn't pick and choose, you know.

It can affect the mega rat. Now, who's David Geffen? Is it David Geffen? Was it Geffen Records? He threw a $7.7 billion. Yeah, he posted a photo, it looked like a drone shot of him on his... Yacht.

Multi-million dollar yacht. Super yacht. Saying, hang in there, guys. Jesus. Wow. Sunset last night, isolated in the Grenadines. Grenadines? Yeah, that's in the Caribbean, isn't it? Avoiding

the virus, I'm hoping everyone is staying safe. That ship is the size of my neighbourhood. Yeah. You were going to say house, I was going to be like, you haven't got a good scale on that. No, I was going to say island, but you know, we use island loosely. It looks like you could land a helicopter on the front of it. I think that's exactly the purpose of that massive deck on the front.

Good Lord. Yeah, wow. Okay. So they're doing it. He got absolutely roasted. Yeah, you said a drone shot. That's not a drone shot. That's a shot from his helicopter.

He got roasted for that. He got rightly shot. He got set on fire. So the top six problems the mega rich are facing in these troubled times. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. We're going to stream the show Facebook Live FEMZM from 7 this morning. Oh, we need the top six bed. Let me, Jared, our producer's gone to hospital with appendicitis.

He's already in the gown, the arseless gown. It's all a bit crazy here this morning. Megan, tell us what's coming up in the latest. Let me get the intro for the top six while you do that. Okay, Demi Lovato has reminded us why we need to be careful of Instagram Live and, in fact, any live streaming video service when you're talking to your mates and to your boss. From the ZM Think Tank, this is the top six.

Hello there. Welcome to the top 6. Hello there. Welcome to the Top 6. Yes, we are talking about the pains, the trials and tribulations of the mega rich. David Geffen, who started Geffen Records, who is worth $7.7 billion. Who did they have on Geffen Records? We were just talking about some of the bands.

90s, early 2000s, Geffen Records was smashing it. I think they had Green Day early Green Day yep Kurt Cobain Nirvana Interscope was Geffen somebody do with

Interscope as well they had a partnership Guns N' Roses Guns N' Roses they were bought by they merged with you know the Jimmy Laiven

who started Interscope they merged it's all universal now right universal music so I'm guessing he cashed out and hence his worth $7 billion.

Elton John was on Geffen Records. Aerosmith were on Geffen Records. Oh, right. Mary J. Bilge Pump. I appreciate that. I don't know why, but I really like that. I didn't get it. Her name's Mary J. Blige, but it looks like the bilge.

I don't know what a bilge pump is. A bilge pump. A bilge pump. A bilge pump. What's that? Pumps water out of. Yeah, pumps water out of places that you don't want water. Why the hell would I know what a bilge pump is? A bilge.

Bilge. I don't know. Cher was on. Geffen. Snoop Dogg did some Geffen time. Weezer did some Geffen time. Courtney Love. Oh my God.

Basically throughout like the 80s, 90s and 2000s. Gavin made bank and that's why he can afford a mega yacht. Do you know how much that yacht is worth? No, do tell. $590 million. So he posted a photo of this yacht and people just went him because he said we're locked down and quarantined in the Grenadines in the Caribbean. Hope everyone's doing all right.

And people are just like, what? Like, shut up. $590 million for a boat. Initially, he'd only bought a half share in the yacht. And then he bought his mate out. Oh, what are you poor? You can't afford a whole $500 million yacht? It's called the Rising Sun.

It cost over $200 million to build. But yeah, it's been re-evaluated. Do you reckon there are some Kiwi super yacht workers on it? No doubt 100 Kiwis love working on a super yacht They do Saw some Kiwis stocking up at the supermarket

By work Just before the lockdown They were all back off to a super yacht You could tell they were in a super yacht Because they were all wearing matching uniforms Okay And they were all blonde girls in their 20s Which seemed to do quite well in the super yacht industry they were all wearing matching uniforms. Okay. And they were all blonde girls in their 20s, which seemed to do quite well

in the super yacht industry. Yeah. I don't know why. Why do you think that is? Well, I dare not assume and I don't want to get into causation doesn't equal correlation,

of course. Yeah. But the top six problems that Mega Rich are facing in these troubled times. Number six. The vineyards aren't open to helicopter too.

Ugh. Oh my God. Am I goodyards aren't open to helicopter too. Oh my God. Oh my God. Can't go to work, but also can't chop at a Waiheke to have a Stony Ridge Pinot. We'll see you can't sit out on the front lawn anymore there. No, that's Cable Bay. That's Cable Bay. That's right.

Stony Ridge. Also, I have to take the ferry just just in case you thought I choppered there. Oh, you don't chopper there. You've had photos. We've been there where the chopper has landed and everyone rushes out for a photo with the chopper to make themselves look a bit more bougie than they are. Yeah.

Number five on the list of the top six problems the mega rich are facing in these troubled times. The roads are empty, which would be perfect conditions to drive their supercars really fast, but there's more police on the roads than ever before as a deterrent, so they'll get demerit points.

Of course, they can get fined, that's not a problem, but it's those darn demerit points. You can't buy your way out of demerit points. No. Number four on the list of the top six problems the mega-rich are facing in these troubled times. With all of their staff, what if one of them gets sick on one of their runs

to the supermarket, then brings COVID back to the island that they're staffing? Oh, yeah. It'll tear through the island. Oh, my gosh. It'll tear through the island. That's a real fear. That your island gets contaminated. Number three on the list of the problems the mega-rich are facing.

This will have no doubt delayed their $200,000 trip to space. Oh, yeah, probably. This will have no doubt delayed their $200,000 trip to space. Oh, yeah, probably. All of Elon Musk's attention is for making respirators for people who can't breathe. Number two on the list of the top six problems the mega rich are facing. The mega expensive sheets on their bed will be ruined when they sweat in them if they get a fever. Oh, yeah. What are mega richrich sheets like?

Just high thread count. Yeah, you know when you go to Briscoe's and it's like thousandth thread count? It's like a millionth thread count. Yeah, they've got a million. And we don't even get to see what those sheets look like because we don't get those stores. I was going to say, they wouldn't just be out the back at Briscoe's. That's probably the beyond part of Bed Bath & Beyond. Yeah, you'd have to give them...

We've often speculated what's back there. Yep. Just Googling most expensive bed sheets. Oh, my God. What's the thread count? These look very nice. There's a 2,400 American set of sheets. That's a Charlotte Thomas bed sheet.

That's made of high-quality merino wool fabric. It's woven with small amounts of gold, carrot and a silk jacquard. What? This elegant bed sheet ensures a comfortable and peaceful sleep. And how much did you say that was? $2,400 American dollars. You're sleeping on gold.

Can you put those in the washing machine? You'd put it on the delicate set, wouldn't you? Yeah. There's Port Holtwass de Paris, $1,900 American dollars. Comes with a set of shams, pillow and duvet cover. It's made of high-quality cotton and has a white color and crisp texture, creating a unique ambience in the boudoir.

Good Lord. The seaweed border. These are all like, oh, Dream Sacks. Seamless Silk. Nah, not silk sheets. They're not for me. Egyptian Cotton. Yes.

$595. You're thinking about satin sheets. It's very different to silk sheets. Yeah. Oh, I've only just looked at satin. Nothing wrong with this Living In Co. Cotton Flannelette Sheet Set at the Warehouse. $42.

That's what I've got. When they open back up. You can vouch for them once you get the pilling off set at the warehouse, $42. That's what I've got. When they open back up. You can vouch for them once you get the pilling off. The pill away, but initially. Well, the flannelette sheets always pill. Yeah. Oh, yeah, but how good is a new flannelette sheet? Oh, yeah.

Give it a hot wash. Give it a hot wash first up. Hot wash and a fluff on the dryer. Really fluff that fabric up and set it. Yeah. And number one on the list of the top six problems the mega rich are facing in these troubled times. They've got their private jets

all gassed up, but nowhere to fly. Can't go to Como, can they? Can't go to Lake... No. ...Como, because that's in... Italy.

Italy, yeah. And you don't want to go there at the moment. I wonder, is George Clooney at his Lake Como? Doubtful. Where is he isolated? That Lake Como's right by Milan,

which is not where you want to be. George. Should I George Clooney isolation? There should be a website. Where are celebrities? Where are they isolating? Which house did they choose? Yeah.

News. George Clooney's sister-in-law is criticised for hawking fashion masks that do nothing to protect frightened people from coronavirus. Oh, come on, George Clooney's sister. So helaw is criticised for hawking fashion masks that do nothing to protect frightened people from coronavirus. Oh, come on, George Clooney's sister. So he's been dragged into that whole situation. What's his sister's name?

Mary Clooney. Mary Clooney. Okay, I'll take your bets. We're going for traditional names. I'll take your bets. Rebecca. George. Anna.

I'm going to sit with Mary. Anna Clooney. Oh, it doesn't say. It just says she's only ever addressed by George Clooney's sister-in-law. Oh, my God. Oh, no, it's her sister-in-law. Oh, okay, sister-in-law. That part wasn't on the Google.

Right. Pre-goo. That is today's top six. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. The latest. So we speculated that Debbie Lovato had self-isolated. She'd locked down with her new boyfriend, Max Erich.

He's from The Young and the Restless. Erich, I think that's how you spell his name. He's put up a topless picture and it looked like her bathroom and everyone was like speculating. But now it's inadvertently being confirmed on Instagram Live. What I'm about to play you, it's kind of hard to hear. He's sitting at the piano. He's playing something for his followers on Instagram Live by himself.

And you can hear Demi coming up in her slippers and she goes to put a blanket over his shoulders and that's when he whispers to her, I'm on live. And that's when she scurries away and tries to cover her face with the blanket. Too late. It's too late. Everyone's seen.

So that's definitely happening. That's confirmed. Yeah. That's pretty cute though. She's like, you're playing the piano. I'm going to put a blanket on your shoulders

because it's cold. You look cool. You look cold. That is the latest. For more, go to ZM Online. All right. The latest in community notices are coming up before seven. The weird and wonderful things that pop up on your local Facebook pages.

But before that, we want to talk about how drinking, on two separate occasions in New Zealand, has been quite the COVID spreader. Yeah. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Now, look. what are we day? Day six. Day six.

Day six of COVID. How are we all holding up? Good, thank you. Good? Yeah. Am I allowed to say I'm quite liking it? I know that's not appropriate for everybody's situation, but this is me.

You don't like socialising. I don't like going out. Sade's not just like nipping out to some expensive appointment, willy-nilly, spending money. I mean, you might feel like that now. And some people have said to me that very thing, but I think give it four, five, six, seven weeks. Yeah, it'll be when I need something and I can't go get it.

But yeah, day six. Yeah. And we're learning more about the clusters of coronavirus in New Zealand. Because they do contact tracing. So they find out everybody you've had contact with. And then they link it all back to something. Well, in Matamata, it's been linked to a St. Patrick's Day party. Now, we don't know what shenanigans were going on

at Readout Bar in Matamata on St. Patrick's Day, but a cluster of people from there, and that, of course, kicked in everybody who was there or has had contact with someone who was there to go and get tested. And, of course, that's a big tourist hotspot, isn't it? Yes, but apparently deadly quiet at the moment. You'd imagine.

Because, yeah, no tourism. Do we know if that's how it happened? A visitor brought it in? We don't know. But once it was there, it spread very easily. Someone got it and took it to that party. It's a very unwelcome party guest. Another cluster is in Wellington.

Now, this cluster is... This is... Shouldn't laugh. This is from a wedding. No, we shouldn't. Yeah. And... Pardon me? No, I can't see how this is funny. This is Shouldn't laugh This is from a wedding No we shouldn't Yeah And pardon me No I can't see how this is funny

So the person that That took Covid as a plus one To the wedding She had come from overseas Yeah Okay She went

To the wedding pretty smartly Yeah Got tanked Boozed Written off Plastered Pissed Tipsy Pashed a guy You can't judge her so far Cause tanked, boozed, written off, plastered, pissed,

tipsy, pashed a guy. You can't judge her so far because you've both been there. I've done the same. 100%. Exactly. No, I'm not judging her at all. What are you even going to a wedding for

if you're not doing this? You're not paying for the booze. Get involved. Get plastered. Yeah. Pashed a guy. Okay. He got it.

Yep. Proceeded to get so drunk she needed assistance. And like, obviously being held. Yeah. Carried. The people that assisted her got it. And then they took it home and have since spread it to other people as well. See, that's how easy it is.

And that could have been any one of us. Like you say, like, who hasn't gone to a wedding and got drunk? I'm also, I would be, not the passion I'm also I would be Not the passion part But I would be The carrying person I seem to be a magnet For that at weddings What

Carrying people You're talking to someone And then you just see Their eyes going a little bit And then you're like Uh oh And then they're like Meh

And they lean on you And then your wife Comes to find you And there's some Weird girl that you met Like three years ago Leaning on you And she's like

Who's this And you're like Help me Give me a hand Give me a hand Help me I need all the help that you met like three years ago leaning on you and she's like, who's this? And you're like, help me. Help me. I need all the help I can get. Well, hence why we're all in isolation to stop this kind of stuff happening.

That's how easily it happens. So how long ago was that wedding? Because March 13? Was it? Should we have been having a wedding then? Pre-lockdown.

I mean, you think it's only been a week. Like this time last week, we were at level two. Yeah. We'd only just learnt about the levels on the Sunday. Yeah. But then they were told gatherings of less than 100 people. Our wedding was only 60 people. You can still have a wedding easily.

Crazy, isn't it? So, yeah. That'll be the new thing about getting drunk at weddings now. Like, you know how your mum's always like, now, don't get too carried away at this wedding. If it's like a family wedding. You'll lean on somebody and get coronavirus. Be like, mum.

I'm imagining, you know, when we've got rid of it. Mum, it's not around anymore. You never know. Yeah. All right. Well, community Facebook pages, as you'd imagine. People are having to spend so much time in their community. There's more reports of community going on than we've had in quite some time.

All right. It's all coming up in Community Notices next. ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. ZM, ZM. Fletch Vaughan and Megan's Community Notices.

Whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle. You shake some grass. Moo, moo, moo, moo, moo, moo, moo, moo, moo, moo. Cow, cow, cow, cow, cow, cow, cow, cow, cow, cow. And he's like, cowbop, cowbop. But then you'll have all the cows in the neighbourhood. Yeah. Anyway, from an anonymous Facebook page,

because this one's been, the person who sent this in has scribbled it out with the marker. We've just taken our dog for a walk. We walked out of our driveway and saw spray painted dog shit on our grass verge, not from our dog. We walked around

something roadblock along some other road and someone had spray painted all the dog poos on people's grass. Why someone needs to highlight this, I have no idea. I know it's frustrating to see dog owners that don't pick up their dog poo,

but maybe instead of highlighting all the spray paint, you could have taken a bag and picked it up if it bothers them that much. So they're, right, okay, yeah, right. But that's the thing, you're spray painting it. But the person who lives in that house, their dog didn't do it there. And then, so then in turn, you've graffitied their lawn. And paint kills grass, so you have spots on your grass. It's not constructive.

It's certainly not. It's not constructive. You need to chill out. Maybe. In these tough times. Maybe Tuesday nights. It is annoying when people don't pick up their dog food, though. Like, that's part of the responsibility of having a dog.

Yeah, or at least pick it under a bush. Yeah. Or into the gutter. And you only have to pick it up, am I right, you only have to pick it up if someone else sees you? No. Oh, okay. I don't have a dog, so right, okay.

And from the Napier News, finally today, Helen posts on the Napier News page, is anyone else having issues in Pitamaya with their toilet smoking? What? I don't think your toilet should be smoking. One's toilet should not smoke, Helen. Especially because how does the smoke get past the water in the S-bend and the bowl?

Is the water being steaming? Is she putting hot water into it? Does she mean steaming? Yeah. Is the steam, is the pipe having some heat at some stage and it's causing the steam to flow up back through the toilet? Maybe there's a geothermal vein of cold water. You should be careful before you sit on that.

Yeah. Perhaps. I need to know now. Well, this might require some Googling. See if the local news sites have anything. Well, those are today's community notices. If you see anything on your local Facebook page, screen cap it and send it to ours, FVMZM on Facebook.

And if you tune into that Facebook page right now we're about to go live on Facebook ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan the podcast well we may be in isolation but that doesn't stop the Bachelorette no siree nothing stops the Bachelorette apart from the end of season

which is looming the final was last night am I saying results? Yeah. Spoiler alert. Just in case someone's going home to watch it. I mean, yeah, turn it down for a second but don't you dare go anywhere. Don't

cheat on us with another radio show. Turn it down for five seconds and one, two, three, go. GC is joining us on the phone because he was eliminated. That's enough. And then oh no we needed a bit more time.

Okay five more seconds. Wait what am I saying in the five more seconds? No I didn't okay one two three

go. And then like Lucina didn't choose anyone. Lucina picked nobody. Nobody. Nobody. And pause. Right that's the end

of the spoiler alerts. Yeah. But joining us on the show soon. Jessie. Because, yeah, we can talk about not getting picked. Spoiler alert. What? Oh, you.

Oh, jeez. We tried so hard then, didn't we? Ah, come on. But next on the show, fitness apps. They're narked on people. Naughty, naughty people who went outside of their neighbourhood. Yeah. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

Streaming live on our Facebook page, FBMZM, hence why Vaughan's acting and showing off all silly. No, I'm wearing my sunglasses because I don't want Megan to be there. Sunglasses. Megan's wearing sunglasses because of her. My eye is packed and absolute sad. Also, before I forget, Jonas Brothers just played. My daughters want to know which one's your favourite,

because I've heard us talking about your Jonas Brothers. One O'Clock. They obviously don't get the entire reference. They don't understand the entire reference of a One O'Clock Jonas. Nick, ending in Augie. Nick. Nick is my favourite. You know that.

I thought Joe was your favourite. No, Joe's Fletcher's favourite. Do I? No, he's only. No, because you've got to have Kevin. Oh, there's nothing wrong with Kevin. Because Joe followed my cat on Instagram. Does he still follow your cat?

Well, no, I haven't got on the Instagram. The cat's dead, Megan. I'm so sorry. Who's Nick with? Priyanka Chopra. Yeah. Priyanka Chopra. Yeah.

And Joe is with Sophie Turner. And you're going to have to end with? Danielle. Who's Danielle? His wife. Kevin and Danielle. Locked it down in 2009. My boy.

Right. Okay. Good man. Now, we are into day six. Day one. Day one. Yeah. Ono. Day ono. Yeah. Of lockdown.

And yes, my counting to 10 in today is coming along nicely. Thank you. It's my lockdown. It's the thing I'm going to teach myself in lockdown. Right, okay.

I already know. I don't want to brag. Yeah, I was like, I already know. I want a prize at intermediate for my today. What was the prize? Just a certificate. Just acknowledgement, which was a prize at intermediate for my today. What was the prize? Just a certificate.

Just acknowledgement, which was a prize enough in itself. The public, the trackers, people publicly, I didn't know that these were public. But people are getting in trouble because there's fitness trackers, and I'm not talking about a Fitbit. These are the ones where you log your exercise. Map My Run was one, but I don't know, I don't think that's public. No, because I remember you could, there was certain when I used Map My Run,

ages ago, because I don't run now, but you could, like, have challenges against people in your neighbourhood for, like, hill running and different routes. Yeah, and it would show where they'd run. Okay, and that would update when did it, but again, we haven't used it for a long time, so maybe it's updated significantly since then. But it wasn't Map My Run,

it was another app that journalists found yesterday. With public records of who did it, their username, when they did it, and where they went. And one of them was a 76 kilometre bike ride that covered from in Auckland, as far east as out past St. Halley's Point, England sort of way, Glen Innes.

And if we went west, all the way out to Henderson. And if we went south, all the way to Blockhouse Bay. So that's... They covered all of Auckland City. I mean, for those not in Auckland, that's 76 kilometres. And that's like not staying within your neighbourhood. That's not one kilometre block 76 times. Yeah.

That's a very widespread... So I understand they're on a bike and they're not in anyone's bubble. But you imagine if we're all out there doing a 70 something K bike ride, we're all out there on our bikes, we're all out there doing these runs, then we're not going to be distancing, are we? And then why should that person get to do that and the rest of us are sitting at home behaving ourselves? It's not bloody fair, is it? Well, I saw a cyclist the weekend when we were just doing a little block.

Yeah. And they were in full cycling Lycra. Yeah, right. And they had the bananas and the gel packs and two drink bottles. So they were going for a distance. I said, you'll get up for a small ride. Did you? Sarcastically.

What did they say? They did not answer me. They did. Yeah. They just cycled away. Yeah. I think from what I've seen on my little bike rides around my neighbourhood, people are keeping their distance, but sometimes they're not.

Some of the runners are very close to people. That's the issue about biking in a gang. You'll be biking with people outside of your bubble, unless it's just your home. I've seen some couples biking together, but I haven't seen bike gangs. Okay, you haven't seen the bike gangs. I've seen families together and everyone I've seen looks like they'd be in the same bubble. Right.

I haven't seen like friends meeting each other and going for bike rides. Right. Yeah. But then what about the, there's a waterfront walk for people not in Auckland on Tumaki Drive. That's just absolutely packed with people going for a run. It's a bit like round the bays, but it's been the same in Oriental Parade in Wellington as well. Police yesterday warning and saying,

look, you can't go to the beach. No. You're in too much of a close proximity to each other. So I feel like we're going to get told off pretty bad soon and they might lock it down further if we don't behave. Why do you guys have to miss my... It's like we're all being grounded because somebody's done the naughtiest part. Yeah.

So I think they just reiterated yesterday, you can go out for a bike and a run, but just keep it within your neighbourhood. Don't go out for a 76K all over the city bike-a-thon. Yeah. How good is Bushy? Am I allowed to call him Bushy? Mike Bush.

He's a police commissioner. I mean, would you call him Bushy to his face? Probably not. I probably would, yeah. He's got a good ring to it. I bet when everybody here was scared to call the new CEO Bogsy and I was just like, I'll call him Bogsy and now I'll call him Bogsy.

He loves it. I'm pretty sure they'd call him Bushy around the precinct. Yeah. They call them precincts here. The Big Bush. I'd call him the Big Bush. When he got his promotion, I would have. I'd call him 70s Bush.

He wouldn't let you out of there. He wouldn't let you out of there. When would he have been born? 50s? 60s Bush. Yep. I don't know much about the 60s Bush. No.

But I'd just call him Big Bushy. Or just Bushy. Should I just go with Bushy? No. But I'll just call him Big Bushy. Or just Bushy. Should I just go with Bushy? He's doing well though. Yeah, he is. He's doing great. Speaks really well. He does.

My mum and dad like him. They were telling me last night. They really like him because he's a bit no-nonsense. What was their assessment of the current running of the country? They think everybody's doing a great job. Great. They think everybody that they've seen, Ashley Bloomfield. Oh, he's great.

He did his first day off at the weekend. And well-deserved. Yeah. But he was back in there yesterday. Yeah. Delivering the facts straight. I love how boomers just need to give assessments on how everyone's doing. Yeah.

Jacinda's doing very well. And what they're wearing. Oh, yeah. They love what's Hilary Barry wearing tonight on 7 Sharp, don't they? They love saying that, bonus. Yeah. They always seem to, and I don't know, is it because you see the whole news presenter now, but back in the day when it was just the weather person that you got to see from top to bottom,

they loved an assessment on what Karen was wearing on weather. Back in the day, yeah. They get letters and stuff. I'm pretty sure they still do. Yeah. Yeah, it's weird, isn't it? Who cares? Leave Karen alone.

Yeah. Well, Karen's not doing the weather anymore. Karen Olsen. Leave Renee alone. Leave them all alone. Next on the show, we are going to chat to Jessie from The Bachelorette. We've worked with Jessie for a number of years. Yeah, we know Jessie.

We're laughing because he's a lot of fun. He is a lot of fun. He was our resident duck boy. He was here back in the day. That's also why we're laughing. Because he went on The Bachelorette. With a whole bunch of other ones. Reformed duck boy.

Almost won the duck boy trophy, didn't he? We're about to discuss The Bachelorette final. I just don't want to spoil it for shift workers because shift workers right now are doing us all a service. I know. So if you need to catch up on last night's Bachelorette, feel free to dip out, but please come back. Please come back.

We'll miss you. No, we will. Don't sound needy. They won't come back. Have you not been watching The Bachelorette? Oh, yeah, okay. We're not going to miss you at all. Yeah, we don't stuff off.

Treat him mean. Keep him keen. Exactly. GC is joining us on the phone. Runner up, GC. He can tell us if treat him mean, keep him keen works. Morning, GC. Good morning, guys.

How we doing? Good. Good, mate, good. Now, let's also talk last night about the fact that Lucina picked nobody. Yeah. I mean, I guess the last couple of weeks watching that back, you can really see that she was sort of leaning towards picking nobody. Yeah, she's an interesting character, that's for sure.

And tonight's episode of the tell-all, I guess, a little bit more will come out about that, which is going to be interesting if you saw the shorts for it last night. So you actually were in were you in Whistler in Canada? Yeah, so I was over in Whistler and then I just came over and

did the filming and then obviously all this happened we just came back to film the reunion and because of the whole COVID-19 I've sort of just decided to stay here so I'm back for good now. Wow and did you just leave all your stuff over there? Yeah I had to get people to bring all my stuff back in two different suitcases yeah. Wow. So what would I always wondered what would happen if you got chosen? Were you gonna move back home or what's the deal? Yeah I said

that to Lily because I've been overseas for a while now and I would have been keen to move back home or what's the deal? Yeah, I said that to Lily because I've been overseas for a while now and I would have been keen to come back to Auckland where she was based and that was the plan. I said if I go away I'll be moving home so it would have been a big life decision but hey, I'm here now anyway. And where does it stand

with you and Lily? Are you guys still talking? Yeah, we actually talk almost every single day. We're really, really good friends. Rich and I are also very good friends. And, yeah, it's been a couple of months now, but, yeah, just good friends with them too, more than anyone, to be honest, which is pretty cool, I think.

Wasn't that nice? You come out of this with some new friends. Yeah, exactly. I mean, I didn't really know what I was going in for, but I came out with some good friends, so I'm pretty happy about it. Well, how's the, I mean, prior to this COVID-19 lockdown, because you're a good boy and you play by the rules,

you'll be, of course, in your bubble and not going outside of it. Prior to that, how was the ladies' situation? Well, I mean, I was pretty fortunate because I was over in Canada, so I didn't really have to sort of keep anything on the down low. But, yeah, I wasn't really here to experience too much. But now that we are here, we're in lockdown. I've only got one female housemate, and her boyfriend lives with us. Oh, yeah, right.

It's not really a happening thing at the moment, but we'll see. I like that. That's the only thing that's stopping you. That's the only thing that's stopping you. That's the only thing that's stopping you. Her boyfriend lives here too. We spoke to Quinn yesterday. His inbox on Instagram was

full of all kinds of messages. How have you found that since you've been on the show? Have you had random sliding in there? I couldn't compare to Quinn's. When we caught up at the town hall, he showed me his, and I'm not even kidding, he was scrolling.

He was scrolling. And these are the ones that he hadn't even replied to, and he had replied to the ones that he wanted to. Yeah, he's a good looking boy, that's for sure. His heel's a bit lighter.

I mean, you didn't see your fart on fire. I can go for a few, like a couple flicks, but I'm definitely not scrolling like that. And has anyone, like a couple flicks, but I'm definitely not scrolling my channel. And has anyone like just straight up, first up, sent you like naughty photos? No, I haven't had any naughty photos.

Oh, Quendit as well, yeah. Feel free. Well, we're in isolation, aren't we? You've got to pass the time. Yeah, exactly. I mean, they keep me going, buddy. Week one. We're not even down a week.

No, I know. Tough times. Yeah, wow. Tough times. All right. All the best with your DMs over lockdown because, yeah, you're not venturing out and getting yourself a girl anytime soon.

Good luck. Awesome. Thanks, guys. Yeah, it was a hell of a ride. Pretty crazy that it's over. But, yeah, stoked to take some friends out of it. And I'm, yeah, just stoked that everyone enjoyed watching it. Right. And I suppose you'll be trying to get a job back here now. Yeah, well, if you can get on my behalf,

because I've been hitting them up since I've been back for the last three weeks. I know radio's still going. Bloody hell, it's only the going, but it still is. Yeah. Here we are, the cockroach of media that can't be stopped. Radio. Hey, thanks, Jesse.

All right, 7.25. Coming up, we want to talk about the Police 10.5 web submission form that was opened on Sunday Sunday and our New Zealanders are just narking on each other. Turns out, yes. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan,

the podcast. Given, well, we're in lockdown and the police said a lot of people calling 111 and called the 105.

Yep. Now 105's like for the non-emergency police helpline. But then, you tried 105 at the weekend and I heard a lot of people did it and they just gave up.

Yeah. I was on the phone for five minutes and I was like, yeah, nah. But then sometimes, do you ever ring a call centre when it's really bad? I just, if I was working in a call centre, just wouldn't. I don't know how, but is there a button just to take the phone off the hook? No, because they-

They need to track how many calls you answer. You need to make so many calls an hour. You need to make so many calls an hour. You need to answer so many calls an hour. And they're recording what you're saying, eh? Because I'd make them and be like, hi, see ya. They say that. No, remember they're like, the following call may be recorded for training purposes.

Oh, yeah. That's a hard job. Because I had a job doing that and one of my first radio jobs part-time was yet to ring all these people and ask them if they liked these songs and stuff. So we'd just fill them out ourselves and not ring anyone. And it saved so much hassle.

I hope that people don't still do that for us. And that's why those local radio sessions you work for are no longer in existence because you single-handedly sunk them. They'd be like, oh, God, all these people are listening to the show. I know. Amazing. I know, It's great. They had all these nice things to say about me specifically,

which I found very flattering but very hard to take. Well, the story is that they set up an online submission form at the website 105.please.gov.nz, I believe is the website. Now, you could go on and you could make an online submission. Now, they opened that on the Sunday. Now, the Sunday, they said you might see people breaching lockdown protocol and feel free to report them. There's a big orange button.

It says start your COVID-19 L4 breach report. Yes. I'm clicking it to see what happens. Opened on Sunday. I'm not a robot. Yes. Okay, beginning. That's a bit stink.

Robots can't make formal comments. What is just clicking a button mean I'm not a robot? Can't you teach AI to click I'm not a robot? Okay, they instantly want to know where I live and all my personal details. They need to have someone's thing to put on this. Yeah, I guess. Okay, right. So you fill to have someone's thing to put on this. Yeah, I guess. Okay, right. So you fill it out, you click submit,

and how's your father? They'll get to them when they can. Right. They had 4,000 submissions after they opened that on Sunday before yesterday's press conference on the Monday. In fact, that report, wasn't that out before lunchtime yesterday? They crashed. Yeah.

The website was crashed with so many people making reports of COVID-19 quarantine breaches. It crashed. 4,200 was the number I heard. So just over 4,000 in less than 24 hours. Right. Well, if

you go to police.gov.nz that'll take you to that. Or you just Google and then it's slash 105 or 10-5 support.gov.nz. That'll take you to that. Or you just Google. And then it's slash 105 or 105 support. Yeah. But pretty easy to find from the main site. We crashed it. Because yesterday we were talking about narking and we were like, you've got to nark.

It's for the best. Maybe these people don't know and they need to be informed. But yeah, that's 4,000 people narking, but that's 4,000 people that are out doing things that people deem they shouldn't be doing. I would like to volunteer some of my time, maybe an hour or an hour and a half in the afternoons to sit down and read some of the complaints.

There would be some great complaints. You can just imagine. Absolute doozies. Someone looked at me funny. I think they were cursing me with the coronavirus. That's a keeper. There'll be a lot of that. That one needs following up.

But then you're also hearing some stories of actually, you know, people that shouldn't be doing what they're doing. Yeah. And that are going to keep us in lockdown for longer. So, yeah, if you need to use that, police.gov.nz, rather than calling the police lines. 105 or 111. Yeah, especially don't call 111 unless it's an emergency.

Keep 111 for the emergencies. Yeah. Like if your house is on fire, don't dilly-dally with an online report. No. I reckon the fire would get to the router too before you hit submit. Oh, imagine that race.

You're just fanning the flames by blowing on it. When a fire gets to a certain size, you're doing nothing but fanning the flames. And then they message back 10 minutes later saying you need to call the fire. And you're like, well, yeah, I know that now. Coming up on the show, we want to talk about dating in this lockdown world, in this COVID-19 world. Because some people are turning to the likes of Zoom, Skype, FaceTime for dates. House party.

Yeah. Yeah. Like first dates. Talk about that soon. But Megan, you've got the latest. Some celebrities took part in the iHeartRadio Living Room Concert. I'll play you some of them next. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

So the iHeartRadio Living Room Concert for America. This was lots of artists. It was hosted by Elton John. Yeah. And it had lots of artists just performing in their living rooms. It was really well done. Like Dave Grohl did an acoustic. My Hero.

My Hero. Oh, he's so good. So Lizzo was there and she was chatting to Elton John about being in lockdown. We cannot let this tear us apart. The social distancing is something that we're doing for our health, but we have to come together closer as a people. Call a friend that you haven't spoken to in a while. Call a family member. This is a very real pandemic. I know we watch TV and we see a lot of fear on television, but we can't let the fear spread faster than the virus. And Elton John had

a nice message he wanted to share. You know, ever since this virus started, there are canals in Venice are clean. They have dolphins swimming in them. I spoke to someone in Canada last night. They said it's like a jungle because the plants are out there. There's more sea lions. And it's like a message. And I honestly believe that after we come out of this horrible thing that's going on, I hope that we're nicer to each other. I hope that we are fairer to each other. And I hope the have nots come out of this horrible thing that's going on, I hope that we're nicer to each other. I hope that we are fairer to each other. And I hope the have-nots come out with a little bit more than they have right now.

He takes private jets everywhere. There's no dolphins. The dolphins in the canals was a lie. Did you know this? Yeah, I had heard that, yeah. It's from over half an hour away. They don't come into the canals. They're not dumb. Yeah.

They don't come in there. They wouldn't. They don't come back the canals. They're not dumb. They don't come in there. They wouldn't. They don't come back there. And the sediment had settled, yes, but the water testing said that it was no cleaner. But it does have a positive effect on our environment. Vaughan's just salty. The pollution in Auckland specifically has gone down from road traffic.

And all it took was thousands of people dying. Yeah. People being isolated. Vaughan's salty at Sir Alton because he didn't finish his last five songs. He didn't finish his shows. And we didn't get a replay. And remember when he threw his Louis Vuitton bag at someone's head and he's like,

I hope everyone's nicer. And the environment's better. It's like you take Provo Jets and you threw a Louis Vuitton bag at somebody's head. It was Gucci, by the way. A Gucci bag at somebody's head. I was more concerned with the fact that he was like, I hope the have-nots come out of this with a little bit more.

It's like, how? Yeah. How are they? They're going to suffer more than you are, Elton. You're giving them some eye out? Yeah. But Billie Eilish did Bad Guy from her lounge. She forget the words that she...

No, that's the part of the tune. What is wrong with you? Just at the end she was like... Could you stop being a bitch? Yeah. Just don't wear my sunglasses inside. Right. Making you into a rock star bitch.

And then the Backstreet Boys, in each of their lounges, they put it together. I think it's I Want It That Way, right? Ain't nothing but a heartache Ain't nothing but a mistake I never wanna hear you say I want it that way We were adding a lot to that. I feel like... Yeah, you didn't notice, but we really were.

That was amazing. Sixth and seventh harmony. That was filling in the gaps. Amazing from all of their lounges to sound like that. Yeah, it was good. That is the latest. Do you want to send that to your lounge? No.

Interesting. I said it. Bourne talked over me. For the latest, go to ZM online. Yeah. Check out that full iHeart concert as well. It's incredible with Dave Grohl. A whole lot of artists and bands.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. The dating apps are still going, obviously. You can do it digitally, but you can't digitally. Digitally. Digitally. That's that instrument that Aboriginal Australians play. Digitally. Yeah, digitally.

But you obviously can't go on dates. So people are trying to do digital dates. Well, they're still matching. Yeah. And you're still chatting and stuff. Yeah. It just means that you can't go through them. But God, that could be weeks and weeks of chatting to someone just to meet them and

then pick up those couple of red flags or like things you don't like about them. Yeah. Things that you don't notice until you meet up with them. Until you meet them. Yeah. Yeah. What kind of, that you don't notice until you meet up with them. Until you meet them, yeah. What kind of red flags did you not notice until you met up with them? If you're chatting with them, surely that's when the red flags become apparent. I don't know.

Maybe it's something they do in person that's gross. Or maybe they saved their racism in person. Oh, I see you've saved your racism for when we meet face to face. But Celia from the office joins us. She's actually working from home in Christchurch. Good morning, Celia. Good morning. Now, you jumped on, which app was this?

I got Bumble. Right, okay. Now, and so how was that in Christchurch? Was it like very busy or I just sort of thought no one was using them? Pretty standard. Like, okay, I only just got it. So I don't really know what the numbers are usually like.

Right. But were there lots of guys messaging back or people that you met? Okay, right. Well, not like heaps, but. But I mean, I guess. You're like, what's heaps? But I guess like we're all stuck inside, so if you're single, why wouldn't you jump on one?

Yeah, it's great just to chat, you know? It's a good banter. I've never been on one, apart from when I jump on my friends. How have you found it to be? Like, positive? Has there been, like like good banter or? Yeah, no, it's pretty,

yeah, I think so. Like the banter isn't terrible, but a lot of it's about the virus. It's very topical. Oh, okay. And that's not very sexy. No. Has anybody said to you,

we should just like hook up and kiss? Ah! No. Okay, good. Oh, that's good. Good, that's reassuring. But then outside of COVID-19, corona, lockdown, do people say that on apps, do they? We should meet up and kiss.

At the very least, Vaughn, yes. Absolutely. Do they just come straight in and ask like that? Yeah, yeah, I'd say so, yeah. I'd say so. Fascinating. Fascinating. Yeah. Fascinating. Fascinating. Yeah, fascinating.

Right. And, but you, so you ended up matching with someone and you went on a virtual date at the weekend. Yes. It was, it was good. So what, what was your platform? Was it house party, Zoom, Skype, FaceTime? This was like, yeah, one of the issues, like, you know,

what are we going to talk on? But we sealed for Zoom. It kind of felt like a little bit of a meeting. This was like, yeah, one of the issues, like, you know, what are we going to talk on? But we sealed for Zoom. It kind of felt like a little bit of a meeting. That's professional, yeah. That's the meeting app. We talked about this yesterday. Different apps for different purposes. But no, Zoom went well.

Internet connection was a little rough at first, but apart from that, smooth. Now, and so what are you going to do now? Because did it go well? Are you going to keep in contact with them every day? Oh, good question. Yeah, no, it did go well. I think there might be a second one on the cards.

A second virtual date. How long was it? Because, like, Zooming with a stranger. I hope you didn't show her on the video app, Megan. It went for a couple of hours. Whoa. Wow. What?

That's bad. That's like intermediate level phone chat. What did you talk about? Just, you know. Life. Stuff. Family. Did we come up?

Yeah, I think so What was that question? I want to know that I'm still in everyone in the office's mind Even though they're not going to see me every day Did you show him your pantry? Whoa! That's not what I thought you were going to say Did you show him your pantry? Whoa! What? That is not what I thought you were going to say.

No. Did you show him your pantry? I would want to know the kind of food he's got on lockdown. No, and fair enough. That is not what I thought you were going to say. That's a judgment. Like, is he a baked beans, you know, hoarder? Or has he got, like, good five-plus-a-day food? What's he got in there?

Did you talk about that? No. No, but maybe next time. I'll have to find out. Save the pantry chat for next time. Well, you know, I mean, you spent two hours talking. I would have thought you would have shown. I would show someone my pantry on the first virtual date.

No, no, don't you be sending him photos of your pantry place, Celia. You save that for marriage. It's mum and your two dads. He gets to look in your pantry after he's put a ring on it. All right? Oh, my God. Wow. Okay, Celia.

Look, thank you so much. He doesn't get to go in the fridge either. Thank you for sharing. We thought we would open up the phone lines and take some text messages now and see if anybody else has done this. Have you been on dating apps? Iso Dates.

Iso Dates. Iso Dates. Is that you been on dating apps? Iso dates. Iso dates. Iso dates. Iso dates. Is that a nice name for it? Iso dates. Do we want to hear from people that met before isolation or do we just want Iso? Because what if you met someone like a week before lockdown?

Then you've got to kind of carry on this Iso date. Or do you just cut your losses and just say, well, look, we'll just try after this ends. But you could still keep talking. Keep in touch. 0800 dials at M, 9696. Have you been on any isodates during isolation? Give us a call or a text now.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. We want to know if you've been on a date in isolation online. Isodate. With, I don't know, whatever app you're using, house party, Zoom, Skype, FaceTime. And people have been. Because I guess, you know, the dating apps are still going. We can't see each other, but physically.

Some responses on Instagram. Somebody said, Grindr is popping off RN. That means right now? Yeah. Doesn't it? I like that you didn't need Grindr explaining to you. No, no, I know what Grindr is. But like popping off how?

Like everyone's just on it. I guess everyone's just bored right there at home. But nobody's... Meeting up. Well, apparently not. We've all got a social responsibility here. Yeah. Homosexual, heterosexual, pansexual, asexual.

Everybody who's got a sexual in the end, any of the varieties. We've all got a social responsibility. All right, we'll get to more of your texts and calls next. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. Isodating. That's a trademarked term now. I've just filed the paperwork.

And don't you dare think of stealing it or I will see you in court when this thing is over. What? Raisins. It is sultanas and hot cross buns. I thought you said don't get distracted. I was literally looking up the songs on hot cross buns and you said to me, don't get distracted by hot cross buns.

We're talking about dating and now you're on about hot cross buns. Well, Megan said Mr. Toyboy is going to whip up some hot cross buns and I said, make sure my only stipulation is that there are juicy sultanas in the hot cross buns. And Megan's like maybe raisins no raisins

I love raisins and I love sultanas but sultanas beat raisins because of their plumpness yeah because of their juicy plumpness why would you put a raisin in over a juicy plumpness

we just want juicy plumpness it says in this recipe it depends on what this one says raisins or currants no message currants no

no mention no mention of sultanas. Please, can you just message him? Because you said you're going to bring some in. Just please ask for the juicy plumpness. What if he doesn't have juicy plump sultanas? I've got sultanas. You can, I'll even give you sultanas.

I honestly don't care if you don't eat them. Wow. He is turning into a feeder. He wants to feed us all up. I know. Him, Fletch's cake. But that's why we have to bring them in so we don't have them at home. Yes.

Anyway. What were we talking about? Feeding aside, dating. Iso-dating. So this is something you could do over iso-dating if you're a feeder. Or get them to eat lots of their supplies if you're into that. Some people are. I can't.

And listening to people eat. It's not for me. Another thing I can film online. Because remember my feet? You said someone would be into my web toes. I like that you're still holding out that you can make money online. Anybody. I believe in you.

Anybody can make money online. Hi, I'm Megan. Go to my OnlyFans. Yeah. Sign up to Patreon. Now, Patreon, does that help? That's just when you want to fund a project, right? I don't know. I've never heard of that before. We've never heard of Patreon. Now Patreon Does that help That's just when you want To fund a project right Patreon

I don't know I've never heard of that before You've never heard of Patreon It's always like People are like Hey Ian If you want to help us out On Patreon

And then you like Give them some money And they can keep making The content that you like But I'm wondering If feeders do that No you need to start Only fans today

Because it wouldn't be cheap It wouldn't be cheap To keep feeding them Anyway You know like Joe Exotic's got to feed 227 tigers That's very expensive

If you're not feeding them roadkill. Yeah. So we want to know if you've done any ISO dating. Turn this car around and go back to the road that we were on. We want to talk about if you've been doing some ISO dating. Somebody messaged and said they had drinks via FaceTime. Okay. And we're going to make dinner and watch Netflix together on Friday.

That's cute. That's pretty cool. But had they met before this or during the lockdown? Just before. Okay. Just before, but it had been continued to do ISO dating. Right. So they're going to FaceTime each other and watch a show together.

Don't knock that. That's really fun. Yeah. Because that's what me and my husband used to do when we lived in different countries. In fact, we're going to talk about that on the show soon because people are asking, a lot of people split up from their partners. Yeah. And they're not able to isolate with them.

So you, because you, how long did you do long distance? Seven months. Seven months. Megan's got some tips for us coming up in about 15 minutes, how you can get through that. Some of them we're probably going to need a bucket because they're going to be like, bleh, bleh, bleh. Somebody else said that they just started seeing somebody just before this whole thing went down

and they just had a date on Animal Crossing, which is... What's Animal Crossing? It's a game. There was an old Animal Crossing and it's just been redone for the Nintendo Switch. Oh, right, okay. It's one of my life regrets

not getting a Nintendo Switch before this went down. Okay. It's one of my life regrets not getting a Nintendo Switch before all this went down. I really honed my Pokemon mastery. Well, they did just announce yesterday that we will be able to buy fridges and heaters. So maybe Nintendo Switches. Of course, they fit into the same category as fridges and heaters. Yeah.

Sure. For sure. And somebody else said that they were talking to somebody just before this happened. They were supposed to go on their first date, but their mum said, not in this climate, and then two days later it was lockdown.

Yeah, right. So, yeah, we're just talking every night, video chats. They've seen around the house. They've seen my parents. Have they seen the pantry? Again, don't show anybody your pantry until they're committed. Okay, yeah, fair call. Good life advice until they're committed. Okay, yeah. Fair call.

Good life advice, Vaughan. All right, coming up, Megan will give us the tips for lasting in isolation if you're in a relationship and you're separated. And also next, Vaughan, a new segment from you called Homeschool. And we're going to experiment with this between ourselves. Yeah. And then we're going to open it up and see if this will work regularly. See some homework. I've got some tips coming up for

those who have gotten into a relationship and are now isolated separately. So it's kind of like a long distance because you're not going to see each other, even though you might be a short distance away. I know, like you may as well be in Brazil. Your partner may as well be in Brazil because you're not going to see them.

No, you don't want them in Brazil. All those hot people. I thought you were going to say... They don't have the same lockdown as us. I thought you were about to say because their president's going around saying it's a hoax. Oh, yeah, that too. That too, yeah.

That too, that's worrying. Yeah, so I've got some tips for you coming up on how to keep the relationship going. Because you did your long-term relationship, your long distance rather with with Mr Toyboy was seven months apart, wasn't it, when he was in America? Mm-hmm. Seven months. Okay. Alright, that's coming up.

Next though, it's a brand new segment that you've come up with, Vaughan. Home School! So many parents at the moment are doing home school. Although now I think, because yesterday I got home and my kids were running riot. I was like, what happened to homeschool? And they said it's school holidays. Because apparently school holidays has been pushed forward.

Yeah. Oh, has it? Okay. Does that sound right? Yeah. But now or next week? I feel like I'm being taken advantage of by a five-year-old and an eight-year-old. Yeah, I feel like they might have lied to you there, mate.

They might have totally tricked me. So I thought with all the parents setting homeschool, we could set some homeschool too. And we could do some teaching. Yeah. Okay. We do some teaching. Basically, we set a subject and if you are selected to present, you've got to present a one-minute. You do a one-minute presentation on the subject.

God, that's going to really trigger some people because that was the worst thing about that. It was getting up in front of your class and having to do a speech or a presentation. Group assignments, there was a recorder and a reporter and everybody just worked. You remember that? Someone had to go and report to the class. See, I like doing that because you could skive off doing all the work

and then just rock in and take all the glory. Yeah, unless the two people working on your project knew nothing. Then that also was very hard. But it was also about picking the right people to present to the session. So I thought we could do an example of it today with Megan. Okay, right. Instead of Megan having a whole 24 hours to research, she's got four minutes of the next song.

Oh, that's not fair. So you've got four minutes to research a topic and then present to the class. I've got four minutes to think about a topic and then write a minute about it. Yep. That's not fair. Miss, that's not fair.

But you're also a professional in broadcasting. Yeah, so you've got an unfair advantage. Am I? Why don't you pick a subject kind of everyone knows about? I've already got one that everybody should

definitely know about. Yeah. Your presentation for homeschool today, Megan. Yeah. And after the song will be on Sir Edmund Hillary. Oh, okay.

Famed. No, I'm not going to give you any tips on what to do. You could talk for a minute already because he's such a... He went up the mountain. Don't waste valuable seconds now. He went up...

What one is it called? Everest. The mountain, yep. Everest, yeah. Okay, well, Megan's going to present to the class next for homeschool on Sir Edmund Hillary, one of our greatest New Zealanders. A great Kiwi. A great Kiwi. He's on the note too.

Which one? Five? I'm not telling you. You've got four minutes, Megan. Okay. LAB in the air. It's ten past eight. ZM. Live streaming as well.

FVM ZM on Facebook. Good morning to all of our live streamers. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan. The podcast. On school. Well, while kids are at home and it is school holidays, people have texted and they've been pushed forward or something. Can I give it, what do you mean?

30th of March till the 15th of April because of Easter. Can I give a shout out? This is just admiring somebody's community work. Nanogirl, Michelle Dickinson, who's been doing heaps of talks about the virus and how to explain it to kids she did the kids press conference she's running Nano Girl labs

because she goes around the country doing labs and stuff for kids and of course can't do it she's doing Harold the giraffe she's the new Harold the giraffe she's the new Harold the giraffe she doesn't have a truck yet

no you'll get one but hey Harold didn't start out with a truck did he he was I think they just had a BP hire trailer

yes that's how Harold started. The caged one, too, not the furniture mover. He got wet. Very breezy first few years for Harold the giraffe, who was way too big for the hire trailer. Yeah, he was. But no, she does amazing work, doesn't she?

Yes, she does. And she's running an online kids lab. They made ears yesterday, animal ears, and how eardrums work. And today they're making a kazoo, which will be annoying, animal ears. Oh, right. And how eardrums are working today. Oh, that's cute. They're making a kazoo, which will be annoying, so we might skip today. No.

Yeah. Probably for my wife's sake we'll skip it because I'll make the best kazoo and then learn how to play songs. Right. Well, we thought that we would do a segment called Homeschool where each week we would set a listener a subject, a task, and they will have to report back to us the next day with a one-minute presentation to class. Now, we're just trialling this out today with Megan, you having to report back for one minute.

Yeah, but I haven't been given a day. I've been given like one song. You are a broadcasting professional. Yeah, but I'm not a Sir Edmund Hillary professional. Well, that is your topic. Sir Edmund Hillary. Now, you have to... Have you learnt things about Sir Ed that you didn't know? See how great is learning, guys?

It's actually really great. He's a great New Zealander. Now, are we going to keep it strictly to one minute? Shall I buzz in at one minute? I haven't timed this. I've got no idea how long my presentation is. I'll buzz in at one minute when your time's up, but if you feel like the need to give us an extra sentence, you're more than welcome. It's not...

Me, me, me, me. Okay. Megan, your homework was Sir Edmund Hillary. Please report back to the class now. Good morning, everyone. My name is Megan, and my presentation today is about Sir Edmund Hillary. Sir Ed is famous for being the first person to scale the great heights of Everest. He spent 15 minutes Wow. because Tenzing had never used a camera before. Or Tenzing's autobiography said that Edmund Hillary just declined to have his picture taken, probably because he'd already just climbed a mountain, was looking a bit disheved, and didn't want his picture taken.

On the 6th of June in 1953, Sir Edmund Hillary, after his feats climbing that big mountain, mountain, hill, mountain, mountain, he was appointed the Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire and he received the Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Medal. You will also know that he is on the $5 note. Sir Edmund Hillary, he was the only living person. No, this bit's important.

Keep going, keep going, keep going. He was the only living person not on a current head of state to ever appear on a New Zealand banknote. Is that done? I did. I did then. I just wanted to finish off at the end about

how he died and everyone put the the flags at half mast. And then Helen Clark said that it was a profound loss to New Zealand. You learnt that, didn't you?

Because you said to us before this, what's he doing now? Yeah, because it said, because I was reading on that thing, it said he was the only

current head of state, the living person. And I was like, I thought he died. But it was saying at the time. He got on the $5 note when he was still alive.

Yeah. He didn't like it too because I remember he was on the news and they asked him but he's like, I didn't want to talk about it. He didn't like having

his picture taken. He was so, that was the scene he's up every season. He's like, nah, don't worry about it, mate. I put you on the $5 note and he's like, yeah didn't want to talk about it. He didn't like having his picture taken. Nah. He was so, that was the scene. He's up Everest. He's like, nah, don't worry about it, mate. I put you on the $5 bill. He's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've done it.

I mentioned being the first person on Everest, and he went, I'll take a picture. Nah. Nah. So Kiwaye. My hair. I'll take a picture of you. Maybe he did take a picture up there,

but then he got back down and he's like, oh my God, Tenzing. You were down the mountain and you took it up, and I was looking down. It made me look like I had double chins. No one has ever seen that, Tenzing. You were down the mountain and you took it up and I was looking down and it made me look like I had double chins. No one has ever seen that Tenzing. Sort your angles. Come on Tenzing. That was really good. I thought you were reading Wikipedia. Did you see

me skirt around and look at her screen? You did skirt around. I wondered what you were doing. I wasn't. You did that in Word. Thank you. That was really, unless you copy and pasted. No I didn't. Because I had to write it in my own words. Well, I think what a great first round of homeschool. I'm clapping for myself.

We've learnt and it'll be back next week and it'll be your chance to play along at home and maybe report back to the class. We could all learn something. On a subject. Well, that's nice. You get extra points if you teach us something. Yeah. Next on the show, a lot of people have, because of the corona lockdown, had their relationship paused.

Well, seeing each other anyway. They might not be in your bubble. Yeah. So you're not seeing your partner during this. And that is, it's becoming quite hard for some people. This is cool because I don't often get asked about relationship tips because, like, you know, I'm on my second marriage and stuff. But I did long distance and this marriage is still going. Yeah, so you did seven months long distance,

which is practically what we're doing here, long distance. So Megan's tips next. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. A lot of people may have started relationships and are now isolating individually. So they're not in your bubble, which means it's kind of weird because do you keep the relationship going and just try and make it work? Or do you kind of call it?

Because with like long distance relationships, correct me if I'm wrong, but if you know that you're going to see each other at a certain point, like you know that Mr. Toyboy was coming back after seven months, right? No, I didn't. Or a year. No, he had no return ticket. He wasn't definitely coming back. Oh, so that's really hard. But then if you knew someone was going overseas to say like a... A certain period of time. A six

month OE or something. Yeah. Or like people in the Air Force and stuff. Yeah. Going away for three months or... You know that at least you can get through that three months and you can contact them and there's light at the end of the tunnel. Yeah. And we know that at least you can get through that three months and you can contact them and there's light at the end of the tunnel. Yeah. And we know that,

you know, hopefully, I mean, they're saying four weeks, but I think we all know it's more than likely going to be. Unless the armed services person falls in love with an East Timor local. That would be a lot easier, sure. Then.

Then that's not long distance, is it? Well, you'd have your heart broken, wouldn't you? Yeah. You mean they're to peace keep, not fornicate. Okay. So,

I have some tips on, this is what I learned while doing long distance. We were in separate countries, but obviously you're not going to see each other. Same rules apply, but I've adapted some to work for lockdown in New Zealand. So you've got Megan's top five tips for lockdown love. Okay. So you've got Megan's top five tips for

lockdown love. Oh, that's good. That could be on a magazine. Lockdown love. Like one of those... Love lockdown. That's the song. Let me find it. When you know back when Kanye was good. That was 808s

and half breaks though. That was my beautiful dark twisted. Oh, now we're talking. Now we're talking. Yeah. We're talking champagne, Kanye. Oh, and the bass.

The bass on that. Is that the 808? Yes. Or the heartbreak, one of the two. So, a rule that we had when we were living in different countries was you always message good morning and you always message good night. That's a good one. So no matter how busy you are during the day, you're always booking your day by talking to each other.

Because then you're not going to go to bed salty that they haven't said good night. Yeah. Yeah. And you always let someone know, like, because we had time difference too. So if you're fading, like if you're going to sleep, let them know so then you can say good night and they can carry on their night. Yeah. But you really didn't want them to carry on their night, did you?

You wanted to be like, I'm fading, and he'd be like, oh yeah, me too, I'm off to bed. That's what you wanted to happen. You didn't want his night to carry on. I'm not as much of a biatch as you think I am. He can carry on and have a good night. I wasn't speaking just for you. But in New Zealand where there's no time zone difference,

if you're like, I'm off to be a good night, you don't want to hear them reply saying, I'm just about to kick on with mum and auntie Sue, who's also in her bubble. You know, like they might be deep in a game or I don't know. So yeah, always message good morning and say good night. We would, this is confronting, get dressed up and have dinner. So you just do it over

FaceTime and you get, like you're going out for a date, make an effort. Yeah. Don't do it in your jammies even though it's tempting because you're not leaving home. Get dressed up and sit down and have dinner. Would you have to have the same sort of thing? No, you can have different dinner. That could be cute though. Confusing virtual restaurant. You could both cook the same thing

and then like have banter about whose looks better. Yeah, but what if you cooked this really nice dinner and he just got like a McDonald's? He can't get McDonald's. Oh my God,

remember McDonald's? He can't get McDonald's. I'm having quarter pounder withdrawals, guys. Who was the guy? Who was the guy in charge? It's been so long. Who was the guy in charge

of McDonald's? Ronald. Yeah. Who was the tea up to? What's he doing? I don't know. He's probably run out of face makeup too. Well, he won't need it.

He's just at home with Mrs. McDonald. Or Mr. McDonald. I'm not here to judge. My God, plot to us. He's gay. Yeah. With the hamburger, I'm okay with. But for a miss, that's interspecial.

I'm not okay with it. I'll go on the record. I'll go on the record, Your Honour. I'm not okay with interspecial relationships between fictitious restaurant mascots. Okay. Wow. Should I even carry on?

Just imagine the PR disaster when McDonald's having to deal with a relationship between Grimace and Ronald McDonald. Then Grimace gets pregnant. Good Lord, I need to see the outcome. What would the babies look like? What would the babies look like? Purple with red hair. Barney the dinosaur?

That would be terrifying. Whose physique do they have? Bit of both. Long skinny legs but a big round tum. Have you seen Ronald McDonald's shoes too? They're like real big. Have you seen Grimace's booty? I don't think I can carry on.

Now I'm just imagining that. If anybody could. And a big Grimace. Okay. Write letters is the next one. Actually, because I'm still getting bills in the mail. I still got a parking ticket from like pre-lockdown. Oh, it doesn't count.

Doesn't it? I just made that up. Didn't it sound like it should be a thing? It should be a thing. It really did. So we're still getting letters and stuff. You could write a letter. We used to write letters to each other. Is non-crucial post getting through?

I don't know. I don't know if they are. Is it non-crucial? I don't know. I don't know actually on that. The posties are out. They might as well have a full bag. Could you do a nice email? Not the same. I mean, yeah, you could.

You could. And then this is one that I'm still iffy about, but Jacinda said the other day that we could do it. So we used to send, because obviously he was in America, he wanted New Zealand treats. So I'd send New Zealand treats over to America. You can literally bake something and leave it at the end of their driveway as long as you're not driving across town to deliver it.

I thought that was a big no-no, but apparently... Well, no, because they want people to look after your neighbours and the elderly. But you don't want to be driving a long distance because that still has to be essential travel, doesn't it? So if you live nearby, you can make them some food and drop it off at their driveway. And our favourite thing to do while we were very far apart, don't look like they're born.

This is PG. We would watch a movie together. So you'd start it together. A Google Chrome add-on to sync up Netflix viewings now? This has only recently come out. Where was that when I needed it? And maybe I think House Party also can help you do that, maybe? Can it?

Because I think you can put that into your Google, into your Chrome. Because even if you don't talk, you just have them sitting on the couch, their faces on the couch beside you. That would be annoying because I'd have to not use my phone because I would need to use my phone to IMDB where I know that person from. True, true. Which is what I, 80% of me watching TVs and movies is, what else has that person been on?

Who's that voiceover person that I can hear their voice? I can't quite hear their voice. All right, five great tips. Thanks. For keeping those relationships going during lockdown if you can't see your partner. Fact of the Day is next. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

It's time for... Fact of the Day, day the 2006 research paper Paradoxical Response to Water Immersion in Replanted Fingers. Okay, I'm listening. The basic, what I'll break it down to is that if your fingers are cut off. Yes. And then reattached. Yeah. Or your hand undergoes significant nerve injury, they will no longer shrivel in water.

Oh, wow. So if your fingers get cut off and then they get reattached. Yeah. And then you have a long bath, a long time after your recovery. Yeah. Your fingers won't shrivel in water. Huh. Now, it's believed it is because

when fingers are put into water, digital finger blood flow is reduced and the skin wrinkles. Right. Because it's all constricting and it makes it wrinkle. Yeah. So when they get replanted, they compare the responses to those

and they didn't wrinkle because they didn't get a decrease in blood flow. Ah. Because of their reattachment. Isn't that something? That's crazy. Now I want to know if it was. It is crazy. I don't know the ins and outs of it.

You know, I would know. That guy that was on 2020. Which one? You watched that. 60 Minutes. Sunday. Sunday. The New Zealand hand surgeon.

Oh, yeah. That reattaches hands. Yeah. Wonder if that guy's fingers wrinkle in water. Wonder how far up the arm it goes before they start wrinkling in water again. I don't reckon his would wrinkle in water. He went whole hand. But does it ever come back?

No. It never comes back. No, no. Apparently it just won't come back. And all the people they studied anyway. But don't you find that interesting? If you go into water, you get wrinkly. Yeah, it's interesting.

But then if you lose a finger and get it re-stitched on, it won't. It won't. Fascinating. It certainly is. I'm definitely going to say that to someone sometime. Next time you're... When I'm in the bath. Yeah. I'll be like, hey, do you know...

Look at my wrinkly fingers. Fingers. Look at my wrinkly fingers. What if toes are the same? Yeah. I just find toes are a bit more wrinkly. Yeah. When you get out and you walk, you can feel the wrinkles in your toes. Because your toes are always in the bath.

Because that was always the thing, I remember someone saying when I was young, it was the story was that it was so that you had more grip underwater. It was from our days of being like seals or something. I was like, I don't think we were ever seals, but I like the idea of having more grip underwater. But today's fact

of the day is if you have your fingers cut off and then reattached they won't wrinkle in the bathtub anymore. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Yay. Megan, you've got the latest next. The doco Tiger King, which I know you're all watching, has launched a police investigation. Do tell us next.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. I'm about to talk about Tiger King. I don't think this is spoilers though. No, last night it was the number one show again in New Zealand. The number one thing on Netflix in NZ. Let's just watch episode six, which is a real doozy. And do you know who's responsible for being number one? What?

Carole Baskin. Where's your husband, Carole Baskin? That's what we're going to talk about. So the Hillsborough County Sheriff, Chad, is his name. Yeah. Sheriff Chad is going to look into, they say they're looking into the disappearance of Carol Bassman's husband, Don. First husband.

First husband. Yeah. This was, he was last seen in 1997, August the 18th. It is still an active cold case, and they are hoping that Tiger King can help solve it. So they want to hear from anyone who knows anything or may have seen Don. Because he was declared legally dead five years after his disappearance. But no one has ever been charged or they don't have any clue about his whereabouts.

So he either pulled off an incredible disappearance because he did hoard a lot of money, millions and millions. This was her first husband or he could be under the septic tank. And I think if we all just dug up the septic tank and then even we crowdfunded for a new septic tank if there was nobody under there, we'd all sleep better at night. But what's with the comments he made

right before he disappeared to people? I don't want to give that away, but he made some comments that are like, very. God, it's such a great show. Every episode, you're like, how can this get any more twisted and effed up? And then it does. And then it does.

Episode six is my all-time favourite episode. So good, the eulogy. Yeah, Joe has to give a eulogy. And wow, you'll never see a eulogy at a funeral like it. And then he performs one of his classic songs. Cardi B yesterday said that she wants to free him. Yeah. Which is odd

isn't it? She was going to set up a GoFundMe I'm like well if you want to free him you pay for it. Yeah. You've got enough money. I think everyone on that show deserves to be in prison. Yeah. In some way. But this has gone massive worldwide so yeah they're looking for new information that can crack the case.

Also, people online are saying Post Malone's very lucky he's not Joe Exotic's fourth husband. He got spit the bill. Which is my favourite meme of the whole show so far. Mind you, Post Malone's getting into acting. He was in Spencer Confidential. Oh, yes! When the movie comes out,

it could be a role for him. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. The rules on what are essential services is changing somewhat. You are going to be able to buy heaters because we're going into winter and maybe some people, the heater stopped working at the end of last winter and they thought, I'll wait until those sumptuous early winter specials they have on heaters, and never got the chance.

But this doesn't mean places like Briscoe's or the Warehouse or Noleem are going to be able to open. Online shopping, right? Online, and whiteware as well. Because I guess that's the thing, fridges can break down, can't they? Fridges can break down.

Correct. You might need a new one. And a whole lot of people caught short with computers, having to work at home. They didn't have the right sort of computers to work at home. They might have had

an old laptop that was used for the basics. Yeah. But they didn't have a computer capable of running InDesign, for example. Yeah. I was just thinking

something my wife does on the computer. Yeah, right. InDesign. She's always like, bloody InDesign. I don't know what it is. does on the computer. Yeah, right. In design. She's always like, bloody InDesign. I don't know what it is. Is it like Photoshop?

Yeah, it's by Adobe. Right. It's by the people who do Adobe. Everything's on the cloud now so you can't pirate anything. Oh. How dare they.

Remember the days when you could just get a free Photoshop? Now you've got to pay. It's unbelievable. That they've created the world's leading product and expect to be paid for it. I know.

It's very inconsiderate. We are providing a world-leading product every morning for nothing. Exactly. You can just tune in for free. They can, yeah. Take a leaf out of our book. Adobe. Adobe.

So you can buy computers, heaters, and whiteware. So that's, yeah, like your fridges, your washers, your dryers. Because, yeah, if those break down and you're stuck at home. Right. And then, of course, couriers who are also an essential service, they can be delivering those. Or I'm guessing the whiteware slash appliance heater stores will have their delivery people as well.

So they can only take orders online or by phone, and storefronts have got to be shut. That is so people don't think you're open and stop by. Okay. That's one of don't think you're open and stop by. Okay. That's one of the main situations about it. And the MBIE, Ministry of Business... Innovation and Economic-y things. Economic stuff. It's not a development in it.

No, the Ministry of... Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. And Employment. Yes. They're giving the okay to different places. Why do they always change the names of these government departments? It's because they, okay, so what happens is someone makes a big whoopsie. Yeah.

And then someone gets a hold of how much that whoopsie cost. Yeah. And then everyone hates on that ministry. So they change the name. And then someone's like, what did happen to that ministry that they spend all that money on? And then people are like, I don't know. And because it had a slight change of name, it's got a clean slate. Oh, right.

Okay. Seems like a lot of waste of money just to get a clean slate. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. But that's how that works. Just changing the name. Yeah.

Brilliant. Okay. It's like how you did all those terrible things. Under my first name. What was that? You can't go by Carl anymore. Carl. You can't go by Carl

What are you talking Unbelievable Yeah because if people Google No that is To be fair That is why I keep Changing video stores Because I'd get a
