Hello, welcome to the Fleeche Vaughan and Megan podcast. It's thanks to McCafe by 5 McCafe Coffees. And get one free on the Maccas app. Yeah, I'm just facing a bit of inner turmoil. Do I go to the field days or not? I mean, this is absolute, like, not really a problem problem. No, yeah, but it's a bit of a quandary, isn't it? Because it rains, forecast, there's traffic.

It was so bad. I saw a symbol on the news the other day that I hadn't seen. Oh, yeah? It was the normal black cloud with rain and a thunder, but then a black sun behind it. What does that mean? The end of the world. The apocalypse?

The apocalypse. The completely blacked out sky because of nuclear fallout, maybe. Yeah, I said, just shut up. Does that mean you're not going to see the sun all day? Oh, yeah. What is up with that weather symbol? Did you ever find out? I simply must ask.

Message, ring Matty McLean right now. He'll be off air. Ask him. Will he be done? Yeah, 100%. What if he tells me I'm lying and I can't prove it on the spot? It was on one's weather, right? Yeah.

Ring him. Ring him. I don't have his number. Immediately. I've got his number. Shall I ring him? On Snapchat. How do you not have his number? He bloody loves you. I do have his number. I don't have a contact on Snapchat. How do you not have his number?

He bloody loves you. I think you're his passcard. Get a better passcard. Shut your fucking mouth. Wow. I'm just going to hold the phone up to the microphone. He won't answer his phone. He never texts back.

He's bloody useless. Matthew. Is he off here? Yeah, he's bloody useless. Matthew. Be sure to wait. Is he off here? Yeah, I think they do a post-show meeting, though. Yeah, so he's probably busy. Yeah. Hi, Matt speaking.

Hi, Matt. It's Vaughan. How are you? Matty. Matty, I will warn you that this conversation is being recorded for broadcast purpose. Okie dokie. Can't be too safe. Now, the other night on the weather with Dan,

and I would ring Dan except I don't have his number, and you are fresh from the weather desk this morning on TVNZ One's Breakfast. No, no, no. This is the wrong Matty. Oh, Matt McPhail. I've rung the wrong Matt. Oh, my God. Why did you let me go on for so long?

Well, I wasn't. I didn't know what you were talking about. Oh, my God. You sound so much like Matty. You're Matty McLean's voice twang. I am. I am. I do most of his voice work.

Oh, my God. You sound like Matty McLean. Matty. Oh, Matt. How did I do that? What an absolute fool. I tell you what, it's good to talk to you. Look, I don't know.

When you said we were talking about the weather, I'm like, okay, this is not the right Matty. Oh, my God, you sound so much like him. You do that. You are two Matts away in my contacts. I do not know how I hit Mick Fail versus McClain. I also know way too many Mat's whose last name start with Mick, by the way.

It's just really nice to hear from you, Vaughan. It's good to hear from you too. I saw your son. I saw your son recently. Oh, you did?

You saw him on that? He's been doing a bit of work. Yeah, he's been hanging out at Have You Been Paying Attention. Okay, do you guys want to take this flirting off here?

Yeah, we'll take this offline. This has been a great chat. Let's continue this on. Hi, Matt. Bye, Matt. Okay, do you guys want to take this flirting off here? Yeah, we'll take this offline. This has been a great chat. Let's continue this on. Bye Matt. Bye Matt. Hi Matt. Hi Matt. Bye Matt.

Fletcher and Megan say hi and bye too. Nice to talk to you all. Family well? Family well? Family well? All well. All well.

Great to hear. Awesome. Now I'm going to try the right Matty. Have a lovely day. Thanks Matt. Bye. God, how much does he

sound like Matty McFly? So much. Fucking idiot. That, have a lovely day. Thanks, Matt. Bye. God, how much does he sound like Matty McClane? So much. You're a fucking idiot. That's Matt McPhail. Yes. Who is a lovely man. Yeah. One of the loveliest men you'll ever meet.

His father was legendary New Zealand comedian David McPhail. Yeah. All right, have you got actually Matty McClane's number? Because I do. Okay, you do. Okay. Christ, you are bloody. What are bloody balls up

oh hold on speaker that's a hell of a podcast intro hello hi see how much she sounds like i just tried to call you this conversation has been recorded for broadcast purposes i've just got to legally let you know that. Oh, okay. I just tried to call you, and I called Matt McPhail. Do you know Matt McPhail? Have you ever crossed paths with Matt McPhail? His dad was David McPhail.

Why? Legendary. And I started a full-blown conversation with him thinking I was talking to you. And he's like, I'm going to have to stop you. You've got the wrong Maddie. And you guys sound so much alike. You'll be able to listen back in the podcast intro, Maddie, and hear it for yourself.

God, what were you talking to him about? That's concerning. Well, this is why I'm calling you. It seems like a lifetime ago that I asked this question and then we thought we'd ring you and ask, is there a new symbol on the weather? No. What symbol are you talking about?

The other night with Dan, he was talking about the weather for the field days for the weekend and he said it looked so bad. And then there was this symbol and it looked like it had a black cloud with like thunder and lightning, but also like a black sun behind it Oh god Like where would you I was like holy fuck is the apocalypse kicking off

at the National Agricultural Field Days Shit that sounds exciting though I haven't seen that Oh god Would they dare bring a new weather symbol in without having some sort of news weather broadcasters association meeting? No.

See, I'm not told anything. Dan's the authority over everything, and then we just follow Dan. See, like a cult, you were just blindly following Dan into any weather-related situation. Absolutely. I'm actually in the car right now because he said something about Kool-Aid. I've got to go. Okay. Yeah.

Well, make sure you drink it all because if you only have to, it'll leave you like paraplegic or something. Yeah. Okay. Have to commit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Commit. Guzzle the whole thing.

Okay. So you're not familiar with this new symbol? I have no clue. Well, maybe. Should we try the next Matt in my phone? Maybe if you could let us know. God, I love no clue. Well, maybe, should we try the next Matt in my phone? Maybe if you could let us know. God, I love his laugh. And we could follow up.

I'm going to do some research. Wait, explain it to me. It looked like the black cloud that's like, okay, it's not going to be a nice day. And then it had the rain coming underneath it. So, like, not a nice day. Now it's raining with, and then thunderstorms. And I'm sure there was like a black sun poking out from behind it god well that sounds bloody ominous yeah that's also i said i'm not imagining that yeah and she said no that's different she said i thought it was just

whiskey o'clock and maybe i've never heard of that or seen that before in my life right just before you leave maddie can you confirm that Vaughn is your pass card? God, I love his laugh. Oh Maddie, get a better pass card. Come on. No, especially if he wears that hat of his.

He's talking about the Akubra. You can't take the boy out of the central Otago Lakes region, can you? He's got an affinity for those farmer types. All right, well, we'll let you go, but you let us know if you hear anything about this new symbol. I'm going to do some research. I am born.

Yeah. I love you. I love you too. And love to Ryan as well. That's one hell of a three-way. Oh, you're my partner. Oh, yeah. Forget about him.

I love Ryan. He's my favorite of the two. Oh, so rude.-way. Oh, you're my partner. Oh, yeah. Forget about it. I love Brian. He's my favourite over the two. Oh, so rude. So rude. Thanks, Maddie. Ellie. Bye, everyone. See you, mate.

Bye. God, remember when I rang the wrong net? What a bloody... Now I'm going to have to message that man. We're still no closer to finding out what that icon is. No. Well, stay tuned. Next week, we'll hopefully have a follow-up on that because I'm not going to be able to

sleep until we find out. ZM. Hit music. Live the air. to sleep until we find out. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Are you eating your cereal again without milk? Yeah. You're weird. Yeah, milk's giving me a bit of trouble lately. Can you just wet it at least?

No, it's actually quite nice. Dry? Then I can nurse it for a? No, it's actually quite nice dry. And then I can nurse it for a while and eat it like scrogging. Right, so you can eat it slower. Yeah. And get more out of it. Does it fool your brain into thinking that you've eaten enough though? Yeah, maybe not.

Yeah. That's okay. Just don't look. Can't you try some almond milk or something? Yeah, no, I have got almond milk, but I didn't bring it today, so. Oat. There's a whole lot of oat milk in the mail room. Is there? Someone got sent a whole lot of oat milk. So you could probably steal an oat milk.

Just go down and steal an oaty. Okay, yeah, I might do that. Yeah. Sounds good. Yeah, good. All right. Problem number one solved. God, aren't we just problem solvers?

Already. On the show today, 7 o'clock and 8, aren't we just problem solvers? Already. On the show today, 7 o'clock and 8, your chance to win $20,000 cash with the box, all thanks to Marvel Studios' Black Widow. $20,000. You just need to get the four-digit pin correct. We know it also spells a four-letter word and that there is a seven in the mix.

In the pin. In the pin somewhere. So listen out for the activator coming up around seven. The top six on the way. Yeah, Joe Exotics. In one week, we've heard about two little entrepreneurial businesses he started behind bars, as well as being treated for cancer. When does he get out?

Ages away. It's ages, eh? Like, isn't he in there for 20-something years? Yeah, he might get good behavior or not. He's appealed it but been denied a couple of times. So I've got the top six buzz industries Joe Exotic can get involved in. Because one of them was marijuana. Wanted to launch his own marijuana brand.

2037. Oh, yeah. Yeah, he was sentenced to 22 years. Yeah. Woo-wee. Right. He's in there for a while. I guess he's sorting out his retirement. This is his Kiwi saver. Yeah. Woo wee! Right. He's in there for a while. I guess he's sorting out his retirement.

This is his Kiwi saver. Yeah. But next on the show, if like me, you're on rural broadband, I'm going to give you some stats on the new Hyper Fiber that's going to make you sick. I got an ad

for this and clicked on it. Oh my god. Lightning fast. You'd be able to get it in the it. Oh, my God. Lightning fast. You'd be able to get it in the city. Because you live in the central city. It's going to take a while to roll out to the outer suburbs, but this hyperfiber is insane. We'll tell you how fast exactly next. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast.

ZM. Internet. We all use it. Oh, it's great. And it's slow at my house. That's all I can tell you. That's all I can tell you. It is like going to your house and using the internet.

It's like going back into the 2000s when you're in a flat and everyone's like, stop using the internet. We've reached our limit. Oh, we're not going to limit, but we're like on whoosh wireless. Like sometimes it just goes to nothing and no one's exactly sure why. We can't use multiple devices. So if your kids are on and you were going to do a Zoom for work, you'd have to kick them off.

Oh, God. It's not that much better where I'm not too far from you. I had to reduce the quality of Handmaid's Tale just so that it would stream without buffering. Don't you have fibre? No. No, it's not there yet. Nah.

So there's a school down the road from us and the Labour government promised every school to have fibre. So there's this like fibre cable going just around the corner from us and it's like tantalisingly close. Run a cable, run a cable. I was thinking of just digging a ditch one week and putting on a high-vis vest, digging a ditch, running a cable. I don't know what week and putting on a high-vis vest. Digging a ditch.

Running a cable. I don't know what's involved. You need to find the people in the chorus van and just say, what is it going to take in a cash payment for you to get a cable to my house? I would 100% bribe them. I'm sure they'd be open to it. Totally. Although we have spoken not favorably about their handyman skills in the past.

Which was I going to bring that up? Well, they did drill a hole in your neighbour's house and they didn't want fibre. No, they weren't paying for fibre at the time when we lived in the suburbs. They were meant to be drilling a hole in your house. Yeah, they didn't do that at all. Okay, so at the moment, this is approximate speed, but I can tell you this is bullshit because it says a copper ADSL line,

which I believe I'm on. It said it would take to download a 5 gigabyte movie or game update, 33 minutes, 20 seconds. Now, I know this isn't true because last Friday there was a Fortnite update and I was aching to drop in with the boys. Jared was waiting. Jared and Johnny, they were waiting for a little afternoon

Fortnite. And I had an update and no sir, it was 3.5 gig and it took like two hours Yeah So that's on ADS That's the old school Copper

Copper line Yeah coming on an old copper line Because There is Now a thing called Hyperfiber Yes So from

33 minutes 20 seconds approximately On Copper ADSL To Five seconds On Hyperfiber Eight gigabytes per second That's It would take five seconds To download aiber, eight gigabytes per second.

It would take five seconds to download a five gigabyte movie or game update. So those that already have Fiber, like I've got Fiber in the city, and it's pretty fast. I don't know what plan I'm on. It's like a hundred bucks a month, unlimited. But I get speeds of like 200 megabytes a second. And if I want to download,

I never have buffering, ever. I've never watched Netflix or anything streaming. I've never had buffering. If I downloaded, say, a three or four gig file, it would take a couple of minutes and it's done. So you've never seen that Netflix wheel

that comes up? What Netflix wheel? You're like 72%? I have never, ever seen that. Oh my God. Never in my life have I seen that wheel. And you know 72% 75, 80. I have never ever seen that. Oh my God. Never in my life have I seen that wheel. And you know you're about

to get the wheel when it suddenly starts pixelating. You're like, oh shit. It was like for one of the last episodes of WandaVision

on Disney Plus. I went to a friend's house and watched it. I was like, oh no, this is what it's supposed to look like. It's supposed to look like. I'm watching it on

a 8K Samsung television at home but I'm getting like 29 inch 1990s Panasonic clarity. You just get used to it. And then you see it crystal clear and you're like what is this witchcraft?

What is this magic? Like I'm watching Loki at the moment and I'm like I know this should look better and one day when I get F? Like I'm watching Loki at the moment. I'm like, I know, I know this should look better. And one day when I get Fiverr, I'm going to watch all of these shows again. Because you'll be able to watch them in clarity. In ultra high definition. So,

so Hyper Fiverr is available in some parts of the country. Some internet service providers are rolling it out, but it's not going to be cheap. And also I was reading that some of your devices might not be able to handle the fastness. Because a lot of, say, for example, the plug in the back of your TV, if it's a few years old, it might not be, it might be a one. The internet speed has exceeded the modern technology.

Yeah, it might be a one gig hole, and you're going to plug in, like, I don't know. It's two bigger, small hole, big gig. It's the same size hole and you're gonna plug in like i don't know it's two bigger small hole it's the same size hole and plug it's just can handle more gigs right of data so that's what someone just messaged in just so you know that hyperfiber needs proper hardware to hit these speeds you aren't going to be downloading five gig and five seconds over like wi-fi your current wi-fi yeah so you've got to be careful you can can't just, but to get this, I'm looking at, for example, Orcon have hyperfiber plans.

$149 a month is the cheapest. 2,000 megabytes a second internet. Wow. And then their fastest is 8,000 megabytes a second, and that's $274 a month. That's the 8 gigabytes per second. 8 gigabytes per second? Oh, because you said 1,000, right? Yeah, 8 gigs a second. 8 gigabytes per second? Oh, because you said 1,000, right?

Yeah, so that's right. 8 gigs a second. 8 gigs a second. So you imagine like a 4 gig movie, half a second. Like it would be ready. You would never be waiting for anything to load. And your kids could be on bloody Roblox. You could be dropping in with the boys.

Shots could be scrolling the gram. Oh, mama. Even at the moment, because we've got an Alexa in the house and we've got a TV that connects to the internet, sometimes you've got to connect to the Wi-Fi and it'll be like, sorry, mate, too many devices.

You're like, okay, who's connected to the internet? You're going around hunting for what devices are sucking precious, precious copper line gigabytes. No, you're living in the 2000s, mate. That sounds horrible. You need to bribe a chorus contractor immediately. Get that cable.

If you're a chorus contractor. Box of beers? Let's talk cash payment. Two boxes of beers. Box of Codys. I'll even buy you a glass bottle of something. That sounds serious, ain't it? Yeah, I know. I know, right? a glass bottle of something. That's how serious I am.

Yeah, I know. I know, right? Bribery at the absolute highest level. I can't wait for this court case when a chorus contractor's in court because he hooked you up, submitted for a bottle of Jack Daniels. Okay, man. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. A study has revealed that teenagers who spend more than two hours a day on their phone are more likely to skip breakfast, eat fast food and drink soft drinks.

Isn't that just every teenager then? And be chunkier. Yeah. So the average in America, the average person spends four hours a day on their phone. That's a bit confronting. I don't know what my screen time is at the moment. Might not be at least that I'd say. Yeah, it'd be easily that, right?

I'd be ashamed. Yeah. And yeah, so it's not so much to do, they haven't like figured out why. It's not so much to do with like the content so whether you're seeing it and then you're like, oh I gotta eat that. Yeah. It's not that

exclusively but yeah, the more time you spend on the phone could mean that you are chunkier. Yeah right, I've just looked at mine, three hours seven minutes so I haven't put on much chunk in the last week. That's my average. Apparently,

Carwen at the social media, this is your job, Carwen, so there won't be a judgement here, but you have quite a high screen time. Yeah, it's slightly embarrassing. Well, it fluctuates between

ten... Ten hours a day! A day! Well, it fluctuates between 10. Whoa! What? 10 hours a day. A day. Fluctuates between 10 and what? Oh, my God, thanks. Well, like 10 is the highest it's been recently. The average is around six or seven daily.

Jesus. It's my job. It's your job. You're all over the internet and you've got to be monitoring comments. Yeah, and I do watch Netflix on my phone. Oh, okay. Because I found it confronting. There was a time where my iPad, my laptop, and my phone all teamed up.

And they were telling me this phenomenal number. And I was like, you can all be separated. So they don't talk to each other anymore about how many hours a day my eyeballs are on the screen. Right. It was an update a couple of updates ago and it was like, do you want to link the screen times or something? And I was like really? And I clicked yes and

then I was faced with this confronting number and then I had to like spend over half an hour trying to figure out how to unlink them because I didn't like being confronted by that. You're gerrymandering your stats, basically. You bet. Yeah, yeah. Totally rezoning.

Absolute rezoning situation. Those are three separate districts now. Yeah, okay. Not one sort of collective district that will absolutely roll me next election. Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. This story has me absolutely shook as someone who started wearing makeup when they were 10.

10? Yeah, I thought blue eyeshadow was cute when I was 10. Indy came out of the bathroom the other day looking particularly orange. And I said, what have we got going on here, doll? And she's like, what are you talking about? I was like, your face. I haven't done anything. And she said, oh, that.

Yeah, I just used a bit of mum's makeup. I was like, a bit? And Sade said she hasn't used that much, but Sade and Indy are different complexions. Sade's darker. Yeah, of course. And Indy's lighter. And so, yeah, didn't, and I was like, oh, okay,

so what have we learned today? And Indy's like, you, I have learned that we've got to get different shades for different skin tones. Otherwise she's going to get cancelled at school for brown face. No, it wasn't even brown. She looked like Trump. She looked like a Trump in the making. Well, I said, that's good if you ever want to, like,

don a poorly fitting suit with a tie that's way too long and we can just, like, make your hair a real mess. You could totally go to Trow's Tramp. Yeah, so, I mean, I've been wearing it for a long time, but the story has said that there is a number of toxic chemicals in around half of the makeup products sold, this is in the US and Canada, but of course we have the same brands. Now, there was a bunch that

are sold in New Zealand that were tested but they have decided not to release a list. They didn't want to pick on particular brands. Well, they didn't want to get sued. So, I can tell you some of the ones that were tested and they are sold in New Zealand, but we don't know if these are problematic brands.

So L'Oreal, MAC, CoverGirl, and Clinique were included in there, but, yeah, they haven't listed who has these toxic substances. But some of them that they've tested, out of all the make-ups... Over half. ...have them. Oh, wow, okay. So... But why is that surprising to you?

You're not exactly putting on No but I thought, I knew it had chemicals but I didn't know they were toxic I thought surely we're putting them on our lips and on our face and it soaks into your skin. What did you think the Britney Spears song was about? But I thought like they'll be

regulated, they're not letting us put like horrifically toxic stuff on our faces. Yeah, a giant corporation would be nice to you, eh? Yeah. So they're called PFAs, polyfluorocaniline substances. And they're found 63% in foundations. Waterproof mascara is a big one and long-lasting lipstick.

Those three are... The taste of your lips, I'm on a ride. You're toxic, I'm slipping under. See, she was talking about the toxic lipstick. She was on to it.

She was. These are also dubbed forever chemicals because they don't break down, naturally break down and they accumulate in humans. You're screwed. They accumulate.

Especially the amount you cake on. Excuse me. Excuse me. Yeah, so it's not great, but they said maybe it's a wake-up call for the industry. The most common PFA is known as poly... No, I'm not going to try. But it's also

known as Teflon. The stuff you put on the pan to stop the eggs sticking. Non-stick stuff on the pan. That's why... Have you ever noticed when you have lunch and you get a bit of stir fry

on your face, it just slides right off? It just slides off and I thought that was great. Yeah. Somebody said there's a documentary about Teflon. Yeah, because... Dark Waters is that. Yeah, people say it's really bad, eh? Real bad. documentary about Teflon.

Dark Waters is that. Yeah, people say it's really bad, real bad, cooking on Teflon. But I'm like, I don't care. That's the most common one. I love Easy Clean Pans. The Devil We Know and Dark Waters. Dark Waters is like a movie based on true events. It's got Mark Ruffalo in it.

And I think that's about the Teflon factory that was poisoning the water. Oh, you're right, okay. And then Teflon, The Devil We Know is about the that's about the Teflon factory that was poisoning the water. Oh, you're right. Okay. And then Teflon, the devil we know is about the dangers of cooking with Teflon because they have put up Yeah, but have you ever

used a fry pan without Teflon? Horrible. Cast iron pans are the best because you scrub the hell out of them and then you've got to just

re-season it. Yeah, put a bit of oil on it and chuck it back in the oven for a bit and you're away laughing. Away. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.

The podcast. Well, Camp USA, all the different camps that usually happen over their summertime, always teaming with Kiwis. Yeah, you always talk to people who have done Camp USA.

You have had heaps of friends that have done it and it's good because you work for, what, a couple of months or not even that and then you get to travel the US. Yeah.

And you've earned a bit of cash. They've given you a visa so you can do a bit of work. How are you allowed to stay on that visa? Well, I don't know. So the article I'm reading here, apparently Camp America, they'd normally get about 10,000 Camp America councillors from the UK alone. Wow.

Yeah, that's crazy, right? So they reckon about 70 young Kiwis have applied to work at the camps this year, down from 700 that they normally get. 700 Kiwis? This is Camp America, yeah. No wonder we've all got mates that have done it. Wow. I know.

So every year there'd be at least that many applying. I don't know if that means there are 700 working, but that's how many applications. They did get some Kiwis last year, even in the pandemic, but they are, a lot of camps are offering airfares and they said you can get vaccinated as soon as you land. You just go to a Walmart, you can get the vaccine. And they're also offering,

some of the camps are offering to pay MIQ on your return to New Zealand because they are so short of staff. Because they normally get 10,000 from the UK. Last year, the only countries that they managed to get staff from were Turkey and New Zealand.

And yeah, so they're screaming out for people. So if you want to roll the dice and travel America in the middle of a global pandemic, do a bit of work. But you get a vaccine. They have gone from the absolute hot mess of the pandemic to one of the country's most, one of the world's most vaccinated countries,

pretty smartly though. But I still. But a lot of these camps are in middle America and that's where the people are hesitant. Well, if you can get vaccinated... Then who cares? And stay to yourself for the two weeks between vaccinations and get fully vaccinated.

And then... One of the people that send their kids on Camp America, they'd be liberal. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. They're saying, though, that the camps are like a bubble. The resorts are like a bubble anyway. So once you're there, if you're vaccinated, you should be good.

But, yeah, they reckon most resorts and camps are down 45 to 100 staff. And you'll get a 12-month visa as well. Do the kids going have to be vaccinated to go? Doesn't say in this story, but you'd imagine they probably would be. Yeah. If they're making a big thing about the people being vaccinated, you'd think so. So if you want to escape, kickstart that Kiwi OE,

the working holiday, Camp America. If a COVID-less country That kind of Has had it all Through the Yeah Pandemic so far Isn't to your taste anymore Perhaps you've grown bored With

No community cases today Announced at one o'clock Give it a nudge Go on Yeah Go and get a month Flesh, Vaughan and Megan The podcast

ZM From the podcast, ZM. From the first class ZM think tank, this is the top six. Hello there. Well, it's been a busy week in prison for Joe Exotic, apparently launching a cannabis line. When I say line, I just mean he's going to be selling weed under a certain brand, the Joe Exotic brand and now he is selling his first

NFT collection from prison that is a non-fungible token right these have been all the rage all the rage lately making some money to get what to fund his legal yeah

his his he's trying to get out of prison still yeah but he's got bills to pay. Good luck. I mean, literally your crimes were documented in one of the biggest Netflix dramas documentary series of all time.

And an audio podcast before that. So there's like plenty of proof. Yeah. But he's selling NFTs from his prison cell. The first one was him with the tiger in like the tiger print blue shirt. And him and the tiger both have like red eyes, like they're going to shoot laser beams out their eyes. So I've got the top six other buzz industries

for Joe Exotic to get involved in from prison after cannabis and NFTs in one week. Number six on the list, kombucha. It can be called carolbaskin, that kombucha. Kombucha.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. I am the box. Well, the box has $20,000 cash in it. Good morning, Katie. Good morning. All right, now we need from you, we know from the clues we need a seven and the four digit pin spells a four letter word as well.

So what do you want us to try this morning? I'd like you to try 6-3-2-7, which is the word near. Near. Okay, is there any reason for that word? Do you think it fits in with the other clue that we've had? Yeah, I thought with the soon, it's another, you know, near, coming soon. It has a seven in it. You got yourself a synonym there. Okay. Yeah. All right, near. It's coming soon. It has a seven in it. You got yourself a synonym there.

Okay. Yeah. All right. Well, let's try that. Pin near. Six, two, three, seven. Can I just say before we do, somebody's been doing this with, look, there's fingerprints on here. Oh, time's expired. Oh, yeah. Time's expired. You want to shush. It's six, three, two, seven as well. Six, three, two, seven. Oh, dear, time's expired. You want me to shush? It's 6327 as well.

6327. Oh dear, oh dear. They have put makeup all over the pin pad. Wasn't me. Was that a clue? I just rubbed a clue off if it was a clue. I just rubbed all the clues off. I don't think it's a clue.

No. Okay. So just to double check, 6327, which spells near. Six, three, two, seven. 6- 3-2- 7. Here we go, Katie. Oh! There's always next time. Katie,

at that $20,000 cash. Fleshfauna Megan, the podcast, ZM. Um, I don't actually know why I want to talk about this. My husband did something for me yesterday, which could be seen as cute,

or I actually found it quite devastating. So on that, I'm probably going to find this gross. Vomit emoji. Most of the time when I talk about us, you find it gross. So we were just talking, and it must have been the way the light was hitting me. He's like, oh my God, you're so beautiful. No, he was looking at me for a while and it looked like he wasn't really listening to what I was saying.

And then he's like, hang on a second and touched my face. And I thought maybe I had like food on my face and he was going to give it a wipe off. Yeah. Or like, you know, scratch a little something off my face. He leans in to the side of my mouth and pinches his fingers and plucks a freaking hair. He plucked. He plucked. Oh, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum.

What is essentially a moustache here. It has begun. You and Vaughn have an agreement. And you haven't had an agreement for like a decade. I haven't seen it though. But our agreement is if Megan gets a moustache, I have to subtly say, you've got a moustache. And the back of my head looks like a Sharpay dog.

Because you know when bald guys get fat. Get rolly heads. Fat back of their heads. Oh, yeah. And they look like a... You don't have one. Oh, thank goodness. No, neither of you do.

Okay. But in that moment, I was like, Vaughn is supposed to be on this. I haven't seen it. To be honest, if I'd noticed, I would have said to Vaughn, Vaughn, I think it's time for you to... It's moustache time.

It's moustache time. You've got to tell Megan she's got a moustache, I would have said to Vaughan, Vaughan, I think it's time for you to... It's moustache time. It's moustache time. You've got to tell Megan she's got a moustache. I would have cracked my fingers. I'd be like, right, it's time to warm it up. Oh, my God. Were you mortified? I was like, what did you just do? He's like, oh, it's just a hair.

It was just a hair there. I was like, no. Excuse me. So it was obviously big enough to stand out from the general hair on your face. And then he plucked it off without asking. Are you supposed to require consent for that? And then I was devastated that he had seen it and plucked it. Yeah, right.

I guess that's kind of cute. And he was so like cavalier about it. He was just like, oh, it's gone now. Don't worry about it. But I was devastated that, A, it could be the start of a moustache, and he plucked it off. He plucked it for me.

Oh, yeah. I don't know how to feel about this. I don't know how to feel about this. Don't do that. Like, I don't know how he's supposed to get around, like, go and look in the mirror or something, but, um, hey, it's gone now. Is there more? Because that's a danger when you pluck one.

No, don't look. I'm starting to get a few greys in the beard, just the odd sporadic greys. Oh, yeah, okay. And when I find them, I pull them out, but then next time they're back and they've bought a couple of friends. Oh, yeah, because I think when you pull them out, they make three more. Yeah, but that's cool because I want a grey beard.

You're going to be, what do they call a, it's not a beard daddy, it's a snow beard, a polar beard daddy. A polar beard daddy? You're going to be, what do they call a, it's not a beer daddy, it's a snow beard, a polar beard daddy. A polar beard daddy? You're going to be a polar beard daddy. Is that what it is? A snow daddy. Yes, is that what they say?

I don't know. A snow daddy. That sounds badass. Yeah, it does. Polar beard daddy. Polar beard. Snow leopard. Yeah.

Snow leopard. Sure. More sleek though, isn't it? Yeah. More grey, sleek, like a silver fox, but maybe a little bit bigger? Sure. Anyway, we could talk all day about what gay people call older men. But I thought off the back of this moustache,

unconsensual moustache plucking, I would like to know how you and your partner groom each other. It can be like nasty or cute. Remember when you got your back laser, Sade would have to give you a shave. Oh, she would have to shave my back. Yeah, that's love. I couldn't reach it. That's true love. I don't know if that's grosser than plucking your hair

or if you must, Megan. It's essentially the same. His is on a larger scale. But she knew what she was getting into. That's been back there for a while. How often did she have to clear the razor out? Oh, all the time. I've got two razors and we'd switch and she'd pass me the razor and I'd hit it with the high

pressure shower to blow the hair out and then we'd just be on this rotational policy. Oh yeah, but my single hair plucks grosser than that. Right. We want to talk about how you and your partner groom each other. I got a unconsensual hair plucking on the top of my lip. Andrew just yanked it out without asking.

He knows what he's getting. He loves his older birds. He's got a crush on, is it Helen Mirren? He'd have to be plucking one of her. How dare you speak of Dame Helen in such a disrespectful manner. Maybe he's into that. Exactly, this is what he's into. Oh, my God.

The odd rogue hair on an older lady's upper lip. What are you? Yes. A big long one. Excuse me. That fluffy, he's looking forward to when you get all fluffy, like when old ladies get a little bit fluffy. He's like, can't wait till she's fluffy and grey.

What do you mean fluffy? You know how old girls get a bit fluffy? I don't know, old men get those red veins through their face and old girls get a bit fluffy? I don't know. Old men get those red veins through their face. Yeah. And old girls get a bit fluffy. It's just what happens. He's waiting for you to mature. I said to him, I was like, have I got any grey hairs back there?

He's like, no, but I think you look great grey. I was just like, oh my God. See what I mean? He loves the older birds. It's a kink. Absolutely. All right, let's take some calls. James, how do you and your partner groom each other?

My girlfriend will pick my pimples on my face and she'll clean my ears. Oh, see, face. I would have thought face is your domain. Yeah, because you can see that, right? And then, yeah, the back is her domain. Nah, she loves it. I'll just be lying on my bed until she comes along and just starts picking up my face. Creeps up on you.

Now, talk to me, talk me through the air situation. The actual air canal or just in the ears? Just in the ears. Once the face is done, I'll just say, oh, can you do my ears? She'll move along to that and start picking at them as well. You two are like a couple of chimpanzees.

Pretty much, yeah. You let her though. Like, I'm not allowed to squeeze pimplesples Are you not? Nah, no Not at all But he's allowed To pluck your moustache Yeah

Rude That is rude Thanks you call James Amanda How do you and your partner Groom each other? Well I like Wax his like

Back door His bum hole You can say bum hole here Yeah It's a safe space. I don't want to say that. It's a medical term, Amanda. Trust.

Wow, that is trust. So the actual, the whole, the crack, the cheeks, the whole buttocks scenario? Not the cheeks, just the inner bits.

Now, are the cheeks hairy? Yes, yeah. Oh, okay. So you just got a little landing strip It's like you're crotching him, it's like he's a sheep And you take care of the park, it's prone to dags But the rest of the wall can stay Yeah, well it was more like I kind of He was jealous that it was like

Of mine, and he wanted to try it And he loved it, and so now it's like a continuous thing I would have thought Until you did it once, and then he was like, never again. No, he's into it. He's into it. So he was jealous of your smooth butt crack, is what you're telling me.

Yeah, I guess so. How did that come up in conversation? I mean, how doesn't it come up in conversation? So he's like, Han, there's something I wanted to say. I am just so jealous of your smooth butt crack. Is that kind of how it went? And I'd love to do it in the party too. Yeah.

And so do you get the strips from like the supermarket or something? We have like a pot of like the hot wax from the supermarket. It's like near hot wax. Something you just heat it up in the microwave. Oh my God. Have you ever burnt him? I'm sure I have. I mean, I'm not a professional or anything, but I guess so.

God, really check that microwave temperature before you put a game in there in a noose. It's like a cookie time. You know, like those little bits of hot chocolate can get real hot. Yeah. Amanda, thanks. You called some text messages. How do you and your partner groom each other? I shave my husband's hairy mid-clary back back and sometimes as a joke when he's leaning forward,

I'll stick the shaver down his crack. Down his crack. That just means like walk down, like swiping it like a dead boss card. Not up. That would be a completely different situation. He jumps every time and I laugh. There has to be some perk to this otherwise grubby task.

Grim task, yeah. My mum does my dad's manscaping and then they follow that with one, two, three, four, five vomit emojis. And then the words highly disturbing. I squeeze my tradie fiance's blackheads. They form on his face, his back, the neckline where his shirt rubs. And around his ears if he's been wearing earmuffs. Should be exfoliating the neckline.

Yeah, he does not enjoy this. But he'll thank you because he won't end up one of those old mates on Dr. Pimple Popper who's got this monstrously bulbous nose that's just like full of blackheads. Where is your partner? He's probably got the best skin on the building site too. Yeah. Where was this exfoliating glove?

My girlfriend loves popping my pimples and it's another person with the ears. Really? But are they getting the ear wax or are they just cleaning the actual? They wouldn't be doing the inner. That's, no. They'll be doing, what do you call this part of the ear? Just the ear, the outer ear.

The lobe. No, not the lobe, up here. Oh, the upper. You've got to clean in here because this can get crusty. Yeah, because sometimes, yeah, you always forget about that. Yeah, but you've got to get in there, give that a clean. I pluck my partner's monobrow. He loves it.

That's beneficial to everybody, really. Yeah, but you've got to get in there. Give that a clean. I pluck my partner's monobrow. He loves it. That's beneficial to everybody, really. Yeah, it is. We pop each other's pimples, so that's mutually, you know. Okay, yeah. You pop mine, I'll pop yours. My ex-partner, but he used to get me to scrub his back knee with a kitchen sponge scrubby thing. It was very strange, and I hated it.

Get a Japanese bath towel. Yeah, because then you can do it yourself. Yeah, I've raved about these for years, the Japanese bath towel. Yeah, because then you can do it yourself. Yeah, I've raved about these for years, the Japanese bath towels. Yeah, amazing. Yeah, so there you go. Lots of people grooming their partners. Most people kind of sitting down and agreeing to it

rather than just reaching across and just plucking your moustache. Yeah. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. Last night, this came to our attention. It was on her Instagram story, and it made us all just a little bit like, executive intern Anya had over 400.

You have 500 tabs open, and this is in Safari on your phone. Yeah. It's so much that the phone itself was like, close older tabs? You have 500 tabs open and 403 of them are older than a month. I know. To open more, you'll need to close some.

Close older than one month, close all tabs. It just snuck up on me. I haven't even had this phone for that long. I'd say maybe six months. And you never close tabs. Ever. I thought I maybe six months. And you never closed tabs? Ever? I thought I did, but evidently

not. So this made me go into my I had 77 tabs open. So I just closed them all. How did you? Oh, because you default browsers Chrome. Yeah. Because whenever I click a link in an email, it always opens up another Safari. So I opened mine up and I had lots open as well, but certainly not 500.

Yeah. Did you also have like 500 unread messages? Do you have all your red bubbles on your phone as well, all your notification bubbles? Yeah, there's a few bubbles. Oh, you're one of those people. No, you've got to get rid of the bubbles. Yeah, because just rather than like unsubscribing to annoying emails,

I'll just delete every day. Oh, no. But, yeah, sometimes they catch up with you. But, no, I can't close all tabs because I've got some really neat recipes in there and I don't want to lose them. I've got a wonderful focaccia. Why don't you, when you see a recipe, bookmark it

and then you just close all your tabs? Excuse me? Oh, yeah, that would be... You'd have a thousand bookmarks. Yeah, then you'd have a thousand... Okay, no, I'm figuring out a bookmark. Oh, there we go. A lot of my tabs were also recipes.

I'm like, I simply must save that. I must keep that open. Yeah, they're all from lockdowns, where I'm like, yeah, I'll take up baking and stuff. Yeah, right, okay. Yeah, but it's certainly a wake-up call. Yeah, yeah, it's not great. Well, I guess just because every time you click on your internet tab, on your browser tab on your phone, it just opens a new one, right. Yeah, it's not great. Well, I guess just because every time you click on your, um,

internet tab, on your browser tab on your phone, it just opens a new one, right? Yeah. Well, you click a link. Yeah. It opens a new one. But you've got... So Chrome's got something you can shut them all down at once.

Well, yeah, it's got an option right down the bottom. It's like clear all. Oh. Close all. And so I just click that and they're all closed. Safari might have one of those, but yeah, I was just like... And the X up in the corner and I was racing to see how quick I could do it.

Yeah, I think you'd be there all day if you've got a close 500. Did you shut all yours? Nah, they're still here. I just haven't needed to use the internet yet. Okay, great. That's a shambles. It's a trip down memory lane. You're a shambles. I'm looking at previous menus I've looked up. Yeah, that's kind of funny. I saw one of your ones.

You'd Google Xi Jinping. Xi Jinping, yeah. The Chinese premier. Yeah, I got a couple of DMs about that. Yeah, I'm pretty smart. Why were you Googling the leader of the Chinese Communist Party? That's a great question. Well, because I was talking to my sister about the leader of the Chinese Communist Party,

and she, I couldn't know, I didn't know how to spell it. So I didn't want to get it wrong because then I'd look stupid. X-I space J-I-N-P-I-N-G? Yes. But then somebody has replied to my story saying, but what are your thoughts on the Belt and Road Initiative? And I'm far out of my depth. Have a Google, have a Google and get back to it. Open another tab.

Flesh, fauna, Megan. The podcast. ZM. I think I've just been deafened in my right ear by executive intern Anya yelling into the microphone because you scared her. Yeah. That scare was successful. If you heard that.

I'm going to get a discount at Bay Audiology for my hearing loss. Surely this company's got some sort of staff discount. Everyone in this building is going to be deaf. And also, your headphones are so, they crank as loud as they go. I know. You're already deaf. I know. It's only making you more and more deaf.

Well, our field days continue today. This is, what would you call this, the biggest tractor event in the Southern Hemisphere. Or something. It is, in the Southern Hemisphere, the biggest national agricultural field days. Yeah. I don't know. If you've not been to the field days, it's just like everything. It's not always just farming

either. No, it's all kinds of stuff. You just need a shed for any property. A great time to go to the field days to get a shed. And what were those jet ski things that we saw and those four-wheel drive dune buggy things. Oh yeah. Because I went for the first time

a couple of years ago. It was quite cool. Lots of cool stuff. Yeah. And we didn't even see like the chainsaw art and stuff. You can go watch in the young farmer comp.

Yeah. It's a whole lot of stuff happening. I bloody love the field days. I'm toying with the idea of going tomorrow but it's going to be raining all day so I don't want to drive to get stuck in traffic

to be rained on all day to then get back in traffic to drive again. Yeah. That's just a horrible sandwich. Like the driving's the bread. That's not enjoyable. And then the traffic's the cheese and it's not nice cheese.

Yeah. But then you feel. I can't struggle to think of a bad cheese but it's a bad cheese. You'll just end up buying something you don't need. Oh that is 100% the case. So the other day when we talked to the Prime Minister and I said, what are you wearing on your feet to the field days? This is a very important question. And she sent me a picture of her boots that I incorrectly have called a wedge heel

and she's not happy about that. Right. No, it's not a wedge. She doesn't want people thinking she's wearing a wedge heel. No, I'm wearing wedges. She did, in her defence, she did say, I am speaking at a very important, I guess it was a business meeting. Was it Young Farmers?

It was like a lunch, I think. A lunch. And so she had to wear formal attire. But then to get to that speaking engagement, she would have had to go through some muddy areas. Yeah. And she was rolling the dice on those boots. On Wednesday at 2.30, 1pm, she sent me a photo of her speaking saying,

this was the occasion. This is not a Red Bands occasion. Yeah, not a Gumbits occasion. And I said, what you do is you take your Red Bands off just before you go on and you go on in your socks. And then there was a bit of a walk around. Yeah, she can't sit on the floor and do a boot change. The CEO and the president of the Field Days,

she said they were wearing suits. So they wore suits. They suited up for Field Days to look like official and stuff. So then this morning, she, on Instagram, said, on the road nice and early to beat the Field Days traffic. And I said, footwear check. And she sent me a photo of, today, red bands. Oh, she's in her gumbo.

She's got the gummies. They're dirty. Worn in. Worn in. She knows. This isn't Mike Hosking got a pair today red bands. she's in her gumbo. She's got the gummies. They're dirty. Worn in. Worn in. Worn in. She knows. This isn't Mike Hosking got a pair of red bands and he left a sticker

on the front to say what size they are. Duh. You take those off before you've even left PGG rights in. You don't wear them out of the store.

Yeah. You do that thing where that red bands are always held together with this plastic thing and you put your feet in them and then just like slam your legs apart and

pop that off because that's a great rural way to start a pair of boots. And you take that label off that says what size shoe you are. Especially if you're a Hosker, I think it's a size 7. Little feet. And then I said, okay, those are worn and this is good. Have those seen a few R&Vs, have they? And she said, no, mostly

farms in the backyard. And she said, by the way, a lady in the line for the loos at the field days told me you were smack talking my footwear the other day. To which I said, we were very worried about an international incident involving the wedge heels. And she said again, they were not wedge heels. And I was like, ugh. And she said, I do need to

point out that RM Williams run a very similar line in heel to mine. Oh, okay. Although hers aren't RM Williams. And I said, RM Williams is a great way to get a bump in the rural voting sector because I'm always giving her this sort of mine. Oh, okay. Although hers aren't R.M. Williams, and I said R.M. Williams is a great way to get a bump in the rural voting sector because I'm always giving her this sort of advice. Yeah, right. You're what, like a fashion advisor? You're prime ministerial advisor.

Yeah, no, how to get quick bumps. Okay, right. How to get quick bumps in different areas. Like how to just, it's like, you know, wrestlers go out and they're like, you know, the rock used to go and he'd be like, finally the rock has come back to, and he'd say where he was, Baltimore, and the crowd would go crazy. Yeah and he'd say where he was, Baltimore, and the crowd would go crazy.

Yeah, right. So those little bumps. Yeah, right. Those little pops. Which help you in the preferred Prime Minister stakes. Exactly. Yeah, right. Exactly.

I said, she said the RM Williams ones are very expensive. Well, she's the Prime Minister. Does she know that you're reading her text messages out? I don't know. This is all public. I mean, you could get all this from an official information request act anyway. Let me just save you the hassle. I can imagine journalists requesting her message thread with you.

Yeah. So if you are at the field days and you sell RMs, line up the PM. She never lets me accept gifts. No, she had to fill out one of those things saying she was gifted a pair of RMs. But what a great thing to have on the list. Or at least give her a discount. She could probably buy a nice pair. On RMs.

Yeah. But if you do see the Prime Minister today, compliment her. Her choice of footwear. Redbands, yeah. Redbands, great. Great choice. Great Kiwi brand, the odd redbands. Scatter up redbands.

All right. Go well with a nice thick pair of red band socks too. Now when I arrive at work, sometimes, sometimes, but not every time, a very debonair young man and I share the lift up

from basement two. Not that lawyer. She always froths you. She always shuts the door on you. She'll see me parking the car because I always reverse into my car park. Yeah. And she'll see me getting out she always shuts the door on you. she'll see me parking the car because I always reverse into my car park and she'll see me getting out

and walking towards the left and you just see her lean over and go tap, tap, tap on the close button. Tap, tap, tap. So the lift goes, ah, okay, bye. And she goes up to floor five

here at this building but this person works at the company. I don't know his name but he's always so happy at that time of the morning. At like 5.30. Yeah, always so.

Like chirpy. Yeah, right. Handsome fellow. Wears glasses. Has like a greyness to his hair. Does he know your name? I don't know. We don't address each other by name.

Okay. Buddy, mate, champ, chief. Right. Boss, friend, pal. And he works on the news level. He works on level one. Okay. Which is where the journalists... I've just been searching frantically to find out what New Zealand Herald journalist this is.

Okay. And not every morning, so I think maybe it does morning sometimes. Maybe it is the latest shift some other times. Right. It changes around. But we always have like a really like quick chat, real small talk stuff.

Yep. What is it? Today I jumped in and it was straight away, I was like, what's the day gone still for you? And he said, probably misery. Not his own. Is he on the journalist, right? It's a misery cell.

Is he on the police desk, on the murder desk? I don't know. Okay. But I was like, oh yeah, economic bloody collapse, all that. Ha ha ha. And he's like, hey, I've just got to say, and kind of ushered towards like where he was standing, where my car was parked. Yeah.

He's like, I've got to say, I admire the fact that, you know, you're obviously doing okay, you're doing well, and you're just driving a humble car. I was like, ah. Okay. He's like, well, you see the other breakfast radio hosts. Yeah, yeah.

Like Sam, Sam Wallace is always driving, but he does the driven thing. He's driving a bloody brand new huge Jeep Wrangler at the moment. Megan's got the leading Chinese... Korean. Korean, sorry. Ssangyong. You've got a Ssangyong. Tony Street's got some massive bloody...

She changes it up. She drives different things on different days. She drives a Ford Ranger sometimes. Oh, does she? Yeah, I told you she was a bitch. She's a closet bitch. The joke is she's the nicest person you'll ever meet. I know, but I'm looking. You're trying to bring her down. She's lovely.

Or Mike Hoskins drives. He drives European. Oh, yeah. And then Vaughn Smith's got an absolute piece of shit Honda. Like, it literally scrapes along the road. Like, it smells like damn. The best part is in two separate incidences, the bumper has, not to my own fault,

one time there was a tree on the road. Right. And another time there was, like, on the motorway, the tread of a tyre had come off a tyre and it ran under and it pulled the bumper. And so in two separate occasions, I've lost bits of the bumper. So I've had to like put sealant on it to hold the lights in.

So the lights are being held in on one side by liquid nails and on the other side by Sally's No More Paps. You've still got the writing on that wing mirror from when you got it from the parts yard. I got the wing mirror from the spare parts part and it had a chalk writing on the glass. Producer Jared, you noticed Mike Hosking's car today. What was he driving? It looks like a very flash on the glass. Producer Jared, you noticed Mike Hosking's car today. What was he driving?

It looks like a very flash new McLaren. Are you kidding me? He's got a McLaren. Yeah, the security guard pointed out and he's like, it looks like Hosking's just got a new car. Wow. There's so much diversity in our garage.

There's Vaughan's shitty Honda Accord falling apart and Mike Hosking's McLaren. I mean, we've got both ends of the... And my bicycle. And my bicycle. And my bicycle in the bike room. Yeah. Yeah.

And I was like, oh, yeah, you know, cars. And I didn't really know what to say. He's like, I'm the same. I'm driving. And I'll drive the Nissan until it combusts. Yeah. I was like, well, great stuff. Good chat.

It was quite underhanded, though, wasn't it? I love it. Yeah. I liked it when he was like, well, great stuff. Good chat. It was quite underhanded though, wasn't it? I love it. Yeah. I liked it. When he was like, you're doing well, I was like, am I? Who have you been talking to though? Who says who? Now, it may be hard to get through on the phone,

so please do keep trying. We do have a lot of people trying to win $20,000. Chantelle, good morning. Good morning. All right, so $20,000. Just let that sink in. What would you do with it? I have to pay off some debt and then I'll go on holiday.

You know, I'm liking when we've asked, a lot of people are saying, I'm paying off some debt and then I'll go on holiday. You know, I'm liking when we've asked, a lot of people are saying I'm paying off some debt. They're just saying it because it's what you want to hear. No, it's the debt hanging over your head, get rid of it. Well, I like that it's semi-sensible and semi-frivolous. Yes. I like that. Okay, all right, now we need from you a four-digit pin

to try and get this $20,000 to enter the box. Now, we know that it's got a seven in there and we know that the four-digit pin spells try and get this $20,000 to enter the box. Now, we know that it's got a seven in there, and we know that the four-digit pin spells a four-letter word. Okay, can we try the word dark? So, three, two, seven, five. D-A-R-K. Three, two, seven, five. Yeah, D-A-R-K.

And why would that be? I don't know. I just saw it on the trailer. It said Black Widow, dark. So, I thought I'd try that. Uh just saw it on the trailer and Black Widow Dark, so I thought I'd try that. Makes sense. Makes sense. Okay, here we go. It does, yeah. Three, two, seven, five.

Oh! Sorry! Sorry, next time! Thank you. Oh! Somebody asked me last night at Banger's Banga, oh, you must know what it is. Oh, can I tell you and you just tell me if I'm close?'m like it's like secret sound I don't know we don't know

if you would like to play how do you know give us a call right now. 0800 DIAL ZM. Friday Flashback. Well, it is a Friday tradition. And it is my pick today. This song spent seven weeks at number one in New Zealand.

It was number one in the UK, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand. It was huge in in the UK, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand. It was huge in the US as well. I think it was number three on the Billboard dance charts. It came out in the year 2000.

It was originally recorded in 1999 as an instrumental. And then they asked a female singer in the UK, they're like, could you just do

some vocals over this? We've got a really good track here, but could you just give us some vocals? And this gave her a career, basically. It made her an absolute superstar, and she went on to be a solo artist on her own right. Yeah. I didn't know this, but this was, and this is confirmed in a biography,

this was the very first song ever played on an Apple iPod in the lab in California. Johnny Ive talked about this in interviews. So when they were trying the prototypes of the iPod, they loaded this song onto the iPod. Did they say why they chose this song? It just had like... I don't know. Maybe it was big at the time or maybe it was just...

It had everything. Bass and... And females, I don't know, I don't know. It doesn't go into details. Interesting. Yeah, seven weeks at number one. Uh-huh. And today, your Friday flashback is Spiller,

featuring Sophie Alice Baxter and Groove Jet, If This Ain't Love, from 2000. A New Zealand number one, too. So, I mean, what more do you need on a Friday? This is good. You keep trying to sell it. Yeah, this is good. We're not making up for Megan's absolute shocker last week.

Would we say this is making up for it? I'm not sure. Absolutely. Sit in. Why does it feel so good? They have to say love me now Why does it feel so good? Thank you. Why does it feel so good? Will you remember me, boy? Remember me, baby? Remember me, baby? Just for this lifetime

You can be my husband Here are the rules of our life In it together Till I know you better Darling Darling Now what do you say If the same Darling, now what do you say?

Why does it feel so good? Why does it feel so good? Why does it feel so good? Hey, look, this ain't love. Why does it feel so good? Hey, look, this ain't love, now, now, now. Why does it feel so good? It's your Friday flashback on ZM's Spiller, Sophie Alice Baxter, Groove Jet, If This Ain't Love. And as I mentioned, the very first song that was ever on an iPod.

An Apple iPod. And she was supposed to come to New Zealand last year. Really? Yeah, but somebody just said she was supposed to come here last year. Just another thing COVID took from us. Damn you, COVID. Hello, Sophie Alice Baxter. Right, that got Vaughan down memory lane. Remember walking up to some honeys at the Outback

in Hamilton with the confidence of God himself. And a short-sleeved button-up shirt that was probably purple because purple was a bit of a go-to at the time. It wasn't. It really wasn't. A pair of ill-fitting jeans. Maybe a pair of black skate shoes because you couldn't wear your white skate shoes.

And even skate shoes were a little bit questionable. It's so amazing that you picked up your wife at the Outback. It's puzzling to us every day. It's puzzling to everybody. Are we going to address the feedback? Feedback. Thank you to the person that said I'd actually rather take Megan's from last week. It's nice, but it's not a banger, is it?

Oh, that was right on the chin there. I mean, it was number one for seven weeks. Absolute Friday banger, Fletch. Yeah, thank you. Megan's was definitely better, Fletch. I mean, there's a couple of text messages that are really summing up. Another five out of ten. Pressure on Vaughn to bring her back from the dead next week.

Somebody else said that too. Took me until the chorus. I'm liking it. Not enough to make up for last week's fiasco. Maybe Vaughn can save us all next week. I don't see that text, you liar. Last week was a fiasco. I've got it right here. all next week. I don't see that text. Last week was a fiasco. It ends in 3312.

That's who sent it. It's a real person. Classic Megan cherry picking the good ones. Cherry picking a compliment. What she wants to hear. Bad choice. I agree with Megan. Swim close to the boat I'll toss you all a lifesaver next Friday. Oh Christ.

I'm going to go outlandish next week. Now, this is a feature that we used to do that COVID robbed from us, and it wasn't until someone said last night, do you still do that feature? Yeah. And we thought. Completely forgotten about it. Well, let's do it today because, you know, we're tired.

It's Friday, and it's easy, isn't it? It's a couple of breaks. Hey, don't let all the secrets out the bag. So, we have somebody on the line, and I have the theme tune. Are we ready? Yeah. Okay. How do you know if it's really Nisha?

How do you know if it's really her? Jesus. Wow. I forgot about the singing that comes with this. I forgot about it. Good morning, Nisha. Good morning. Good morning.

Now, let's learn a little bit more about you, shall we? Because before we do, let me just say that for people listening now, we need you to make this happen. To make this work. As soon as you recognise Nisha. As soon, I mean the name alone, and the voice, you're like, I know her. You call 0800 dial ZM. If you know Nisha, you need to call us. Now we're going to

ask you a few questions, Nisha, to help people out. Whereabouts in New Zealand do you live? I live in Morrinsville. Yay! Have you always lived in Morrinsville? Woo! Woo! Oh, have you always lived in Morrinsville? A small, tiny town. Yeah, this is sometimes...

I went to, what, St. Peter's in Cambridge. And then I went to Hillcrest High. Go on, what happened? Did Dad get done for embezzlement or something? They just thought it was best they didn't come back for my last two years. So that was St. Peter's choice, was it? Yeah, yeah. You leave or we'll ask you to.

Oh, you naughty girl. Well, you know, they've got to get their grades at a good average, don't they? Right, so St. Peter's and Hillcrest. Hillcrest is a massive school in Hamilton. Yeah, right, okay. Lots of people. You went to school with lots of people. How would people know you otherwise outside of school years?

Have you done any sports or hobbies or groups? I work in disability support, I guess. Okay. I try and think. I worked for New Zealand's Deaf Association for a good few years and influenced in sign. Oh, wow. I've taken sign classes and things around the area.

What did you do to St. Peter's? Because now you're doing the Lord's work. You're doing good work. No, I don't know. Okay. It sounds like someone set something on fire, Nisha. We all did silly things in our times. A little eyeliner.

What did she do at St. Peter's? No. She won. Honestly, thank you. What did she do at St. Peter's? No. She wore eyeliner.

ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Someone's got a solo career and it's getting all fancy. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- That was our movie. Yeah. Fifth Harmony. Fifth Harmony. Yeah. Fifth Harmony. I'll be the Normani. Today's, you're the Kelly Rowland. No, Kelly Michelle.

You're the Michelle. Right, okay. You are the Michelle. Wow. I didn't mean to. You're hearing the sass from this today? I didn't mean to kickstart that. Yeah.

Today's fact of the day is happy international panic day. Okay. And happy international picnic day. Happy international picnic and panic both fall on the same day. Okay, great. Isn't that fun? A panic picnic. Isn't that fun?

A panicky picnic. I'd be panicking if I had a picnic and a bear came along. Oh. That would be a panic picnic. He would want your picnic basket. Yep. So I thought of today's International Picnic Day, that

seems like a word we're more than happy to say and not know the origins of. Oh yeah. Picnic. So it's another fact of the day etymology lesson. Which is where we learn the origins of the word. Yeah, you've used a big word there haven't you and you're proud of it. So it's a

it was originally a French word and it was said pique-nique. Pique-nique. Pique-nique. Okay. And it had a hyphen in the middle. P-I-Q-U-E, N-I-Q-U-E. Pique-nique.

And apparently became very popular after the French Revolution. I didn't know this, but prior to the French Revolution, which happened in the late 1700s, royal parks weren't allowed to be used by anybody apart from royals or like the absolute upper crust of society. So they had these big swaths of green.

How rude. Yeah, in the middle of cities and stuff. But poor people, the working class peasants, weren't allowed to use it. It was only for the elite. So after the French Revolution, where basically they just murdered everybody, there was a working class revolution and everybody of the royal family

and everything just got overthrown and moided. Yeah. It was for the first time the working class could use these beautiful royal gardens. Right. Which became gardens to use. And they said that the type of meal they were having was a pique-nique, originally described as a group of people who just bought their own wine to a meal. Yeah.

So BYO technically. Yeah. And it's kind of changed a little bit. And so pique means is French for pick. Like you pick at food. Yeah. Okay. So you're not sitting down to have like a whole multi-course meal.

You just have everything laid out and you kind of pick at it as you want. And nique, which means in French, apparently a thing of little importance. So you wouldn't have one big grand meal. You would have heaps of little things that you could just pick at the smaller dishes. And then when the English said, all these French people,

they're eating outside and everybody's bringing something and they're putting a blanket down and they're all eating little like tapas. They said, but we can't have it spelled pique nique because we're English, they're eating outside and everybody's bringing something and they're putting a blanket down and they're all eating little like tapas. They said, but we can't have it spelled picnic because we're English and they're French. So we're just going to spell it P-I-C-N-I-C. Picnop. Picnop.

Okay. So that's how it became known as a picnic. Right. Yeah. And really took off in France when people were actually allowed to go to grassed areas that were close to where they lived and- Yeah, have a bottle of wine and- Spread out and have a drink and an eat.

So today's fact of the day is the origins of the word picnic are French, pique-nique, and today is International Picnic and International Panic Day. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. day day I do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do Flesh Warner Megan The Podcast ZM When did you last wash your hands? Executive intern

and he's just cutting a wheel of cheese beside me but very finger heavy on the very fingery because apparently listening to different beside me, but very finger heavy on the, very fingery. Because apparently listening to different,

a certain genre of music will make cheese taste better. Now, I don't know what it is. Producer Jared's got some, he knows. Okay. And he's put in some different genres of music for us to play whilst we eat a slice of camembert cheese. Okay. Now this is, I'm all on board with eating cheese at 17 minutes to 9 in the morning.

Yes. How long is it taking you to cut? Nine bits of cheese. And you're fingering each slice. She's fingering the inside and the outside of each slice. Pass me three, Vaughan, and we'll get three to Megan. How old is this cheese? It smells funky.

What does that smell like? No, that smells like camembert. It does, yeah. That word you like? No, that smells like camembert. It does, yeah. That word you just mouthed, that means exactly what. Like burger rings as well. A little bit of a chlorine-y taste. So, Producer Jared, there are three genres of music that we must listen to while we eat this cheese.

Okay. Genre one and slice of cheese one is... What are you calling this genre? Hip hop. Hip hop. Hip hop, okay.

Yeah, it tastes pretty good. Tastes like camembert. Tastes like camembert cheese, yeah. But does it taste better than it normally would? Yeah, okay. Maybe I'm not usually

a camembert guy. This cheese tastes funky. No, this is what it... No, it tastes good. Yeah, okay. Maybe I'm not usually a camembert guy. This cheese tastes funky. No, it tastes good. It tastes good. That's what it smells like. Are you serious? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Why have I never smelled camembert individually before?

I think you just have it on a cracker with dip normally. I'm never eating it again. I'm a brie man. I'm a brie man or that... a brie man or that, um, halibut, halibut, what's that cheese, Megan? Okay, what's our next genre, producer Jared? Classical. Oh, okay, all right, next.

Oh, I feel like this is fitting. It's very upper class. You know what? I don't think it tastes as good as the hip hop. I don't think it does either. I a hip hop. I don't think it does either. I think hip hop tastes better. Which seems weird. Because it's your second bite of cheese?

Yeah, maybe. And that was a thicker. It's just like, yeah, the initial sip of wine is always the best. I find about the bottom of the third bottle is where I hit my sweet spot. I'm going to go with hip hop, yeah. Producer Jared, what are we calling this genre?

I think the kids call it techno. Ah, right. Okay. Slice of cheese. I feel like that got saltier. I feel like that's better than classical, but not as good as hip hop. But again, that was the first slice, so I don't know if the hip hop... It tastes really salty now.

Hmm. Well, producer... I'm off this cheese, eh? I'm off it. I'm never eating from the beer again. Producer Jared, what is the best music to eat cheese to? The hip hop. Yeah! Really? It actually did.

It actually did. Bit of fitty. Next time I'm sitting down to a... Wait, can you give me another slice? Here you go. And I'll go back to the hip hop. Revisit the hip hop. Oh, hang on. Play a different hip hop song.

Oh, like I don't have one ready. Yeah, it really does taste better. What's it doing to our brain? Do you have any reason why, Jared? No. I haven't read the article properly, sorry. Classic radio. We had all morning.

Classic radio announcer. All morning. Wow. We come to you in the moment of need. People listening are like, wow, hip hop is the best music to listen to. I wonder why. And you can't tell us. A wine and cheese evening, it's going to be hip hop heavy.

Hip hop heavy. Put it on a G, night dog, regulate. That would be the absolute treat. Okay, in that 20 seconds, producer Jared has skim read the article. It enhances the fruitiness. You didn't add anything. That's all you got through in 20 seconds That was a solid buffer, Jared

He's a fast reader I mean, we did pad and give you enough time to read at least four paragraphs of that news article Well, there you go I concur, though I know, that is actually We picked it, didn't we? We said hip hop But again, I didn't know if that was because it was the first one we listened to

And like the initial taste of cheese was like, oh, yum. But then going back to the last cheese, it did taste better. Did it say which was the worst? Vaughn's just like, yuck. It was so yuck. The cheese was yuck. Why did Cam and Bear do this? I only ever ate it on a cracker with something else.

I've never had it just by itself. It implies that other genres didn't do much. Hip-hop was the other. How long has anyone changed that? Where did you get this study from, Jared? It implies that other genres didn't do much. Hip-hop was the other. Hip-hop was the only one that changed it. Where did you get this study from, Jared? Is this even actually a thing? It's from Unilad. What about this?

What about this in the background of cheese eating, especially Camembert flavoured cheese? I've heard people say that. But I love making music. Camembert is absolutely 100% off my future cheese list. Why? I love it. It's my go-to.

No. Blue cheese. I have to admit, I've never sniffed it before. That'll be the last time I sniff camembert. Never sniff it. It's what killed Burger Rings for me Just down at the Camembert factory Just listening to a bit

Of Barry White Oh we're having fun Wow I think we've stumbled Across the new Shardy club You know radio stations Do chardonnay clubs? Yeah.

And listeners come down and have a shardy. We could do a hip-hop and cheese night. Hip-hop and cheese. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Get some nice cheeses. Name the cheese after hip-hop artists. Yeah. The Notorious B.I. Cheese.

Yeah. Good. Snoop Cheese. That doesn't work. It does. Why doesn't that work? Snoop Cheese. No, it's...

You've got to think of how you can go Snoop Dogg-outer. No, I replaced his second name with the word cheese. No, but it doesn't... It's got to, like, rhyme or something.

by Kanye. Yep. Thanks. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast. Speaking of Doja Cat, we've got another big puss in our mix. The biggest. Don't call my husband a big puss.

No, no, from now on I will only call him King Puss. Yeah, yeah. Because he is the king of the jungle. Now what page? Does that make me Queen Puss? Oh, please never refer to yourself as that ever again. I've just done a little vomit in my mouth. It tastes like that cheese smell.

Now, this is... This one's on page A9 of today's New Zealand Herald, and you too can cut it out and have your own King Puss. Because Mr. Toyboy, Megan's husbandgan's husband mr toy boy is in the paper yeah it's a booty cat where where i thought i saw a putty tat um andrew pappas will play alex the lion when madagascar the musical tours new zealand next month and it's auckland wellington crushes get your tickets this costume's gonna get taken home at the end of the run, I reckon. Is he in a full body Lycra suit? It's a full body suit with padding.

Padding. Like for muscles. Right, and also. Do they pad the front? Because you can't be showing kids your. I don't actually know. Surely. Surely.

Surely. Surely. Well, he's in this picture in the paper. He's hiding behind a tree stump or a log or something, which is, he's just like, wow, around the top of it. Wow. So it's not, we don't get to see the king. The whole of it, yeah.

Yeah, we don't get to see exactly why they call him King Puss. You're very offensive. No, it's not. They're the biggest cats. Are they bigger than tigers, though? Well, they're king of the jungle. Even though they're not in the jungle. So what is this?

Who else? No. But I'm familiar with it. Ross from Friends was in it. David Schwimmer. Yeah. Who was he? He plays Melman, the giraffe.

The giraffe. Melman. Melman. Why does he get a name like Melmanman but there's an alex he's a lion called alex right right god i can't even explain this to you who's playing the giraffe because i i mean a tiger costume's easy enough oh it's in the ad it's a lot of stuff oh right okay now the penguins are puppets too, yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What are they doing? Because, you know, there was this whole cat's debacle when the movie came out with the CGI buttholes. What are they doing in this show?

Real buttholes. Real buttholes. Oh, my God. That was part of his audition. Right. He auditioned online. He had to, like, sing the song and then turn around and show them his actual butthole.
