Hello, welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan Deep Dive podcast special.

ZM.
Hit music.
Lives here.
Fletch, Vaughan and Megan.
The podcast.
And it's part three now.
Yes.
Of our Deep Dive.
Unos, dos, tres.
As the Spanish would say.
You give us the topics and we will touch on them, deep dive.
Lightly weighed.
Briefly dip our toe into lightly weighed.
Yes.
Oh, yep, me.
Oh my God, Megan.
It's the third episode.
Kids toys you always wanted as a kid but no one ever bought for you.
Oh.
All of them?
Pretty much anything that went in a track.
Like I love putting like even a marble track was pretty awesome.
Like that's all.
Yeah, or cars.
I went on one of those ones where you put a matchbox car in
and it didn't have an engine in the car.
The track had those little spinning wheels and when it went through it,
it went boom and it shot it and it went like around the loops
and all that sort of stuff.
Yeah.
I bloody love those.
I love the look of those.
All the action figurines were always way cooler in the ads.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I think we got like the odd one, but never like a He-Man or a G.I. Joe or any main one or Transformers.
I think the ad taught me that the toy was going to do a lot of the heavy lifting.
But like G.I. Joe's, that was up to your imagination once you had the Joe.
Yeah.
And I didn't have the heart for war.
I found that out the hard way.
I had a G.I. Joe jet.
Like one birthday, I nailed it.
I got the jet with the forward-pointing wings.
Wow.
If you were a kid in the 80s, if you were a boy or a girl
that was into military action figures,
you would know what I'm talking about.
It was the toy to have.
And I nailed it one year.
I don't know if there must have been a good Fonterra payout for milk powder or milk fats that year.
My parents had a little extra slush fund and they bought me that.
But then I got it and I was like, well, this is cool, but it doesn't fly.
I expected too much.
I had my expectations too high, and I didn't have the heart for war.
I'd had missiles on it, but I couldn't drop them on my brother's Cobra Commanders.
I didn't have the heart to kill people who I didn't know their backs.
You were more of a G.I. Joe peacekeeper.
I was, yes, yes, yes.
On the medical team.
Yes.
I was a big fan of the medical team and doing that sort of jazz.
I would have had no qualms at all about dropping a drone strike on my brother.
Absolutely none at all.
Well, my brother, no, because I knew his backstory.
But I didn't know what those Cobra had been through that led them to a point
where they needed to join an evil military force.
Okay.
And in their minds, were they the good guys?
Yeah, well, that's true.
Were you the bad guy?
And if I kill one of them, am I really doing anything apart from taking someone's father away?
Oh, my God.
That's a lot for a kid to shoulder.
Would I be better to cut off the head of the beast and attack them through the court of law
and through trade embargoes, for example.
Could you have achieved such a thing with sanctions instead?
Yes, tariffs and sanctions.
I would have ceased trade with the Cobra Nations immediately
and I would have flushed them out that way.
I think that would have been the better way to handle it, personally.
I don't know if the sanctions board game
would have been as good as a G.I. Joe.
No.
It probably wouldn't have sold as well.
There was a lot more thought that went into it.
Um,
what,
like water ones.
I always wanted more water guns.
Yeah.
Oh,
we had a super soaker.
Yeah.
We had the back.
Did you have the backpack one?
Nah,
that was like,
no,
that was,
yeah,
they were like,
um,
based on flamethrowers,
weren't they?
Yes.
With the giant tank on the back.
Yes.
Um,
Nan would open the door
and you'd just
absolutely toast her.
Yeah.
With water
rather than napalm.
That was better
for everybody involved
because Nan could dry out,
couldn't she?
But if it had been napalm,
she couldn't recover from that.
Unless Nan slipped
on the front step
and did her hip.
Oh, Jesus.
Or took a tumble
and even worse,
died.
Which does happen to old people.
And Nerf guns, I always wanted the biggest, latest Nerf gun.
They didn't often get purchased.
I was a greedy little fuck.
I wanted it all.
I really bought into that 80s and 90s consumerism.
When they were allowed to just target kids with advertisements.
Absolutely unimpeded. Is that the word I advertisements. Absolutely unimpeded.
Is that the word I'm after?
Unimpeded.
There was no government agency saying,
you can't do that to kids because not all kids can afford that
and that's unhealthy for kids.
It went back in the hayden.
Has that changed though?
I don't think it has.
No, not toys like chocolates and stuff.
Like chocolates and food and stuff, sure.
But that's just why you buy yourself so many toys, isn't it?
Yes, that is right.
I just buy them.
Because you're a stout.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't really miss out.
I had a very privileged upbringing.
I never had a starter jacket.
I've never heard you go on about that.
If we're just putting things on the table that we didn't have that we really wanted.
I never had a Barbie.
She never had a Barbie.
I had a Cindy.
Oh, yeah.
My mum gave my sister a Cindy once. Christ, the bloody rigmarole there. This isn't a Barbie. She never had a Barbie? I had a Cindy. Oh, yeah. My mum gave my sister a Cindy once.
Christ, the bloody rigmarole there.
This isn't a Barbie.
So she's ugly.
And Cindy was big boned.
But she was gorgeous.
She was.
Was she the home brand to?
A little bit.
Yeah, she was.
She was much cheaper than a Barbie.
Oh, right.
She didn't have the brand recognition of Barbie.
Right.
How's Cindy?
Yeah, so I guess. Can't very well go out and buy a Barbie now Oh, right. She didn't have the brand recognition of Barbie. Right. How's Cindy? Yes, I guess.
Can't very well go out and buy a Barbie now.
Well, you're damn right you could.
Why not?
Yeah, I guess.
You can do what you want.
And you can get all sorts of Barbies now.
Sit in my room and change Barbies' clothes.
Yeah.
And then one day you'll cut her hair and you'll realise it won't grow back.
It's the harsh lessons of Barbies.
Yeah.
All right, next question for our deep dive.
Shallow Wade, light touch on.
If you were in a reliable and totally self-driving car,
would you have sexy time or a snooze?
Both.
Yeah, one after the other.
Yeah, because it helps with the sleep, doesn't it?
Yeah, it certainly does.
Where are we going?
Hamilton.
We're going to the Hamilton Gardens.
From Auckland.
I'd trust that road because it's going to be all motorways.
Yeah.
What year is this though?
2020.
It's been a hell of a year.
This year.
No, because you'll see the odd Tesla in a fiery crash.
You fucking dick.
No, but what Anna's saying is...
2025.
But the car is far more reliable than current.
In 2025, that'll be so reliable.
I'd try to get the sex out of the way
by the BP at Drury.
Because that's what everyone wants to hear
when they're engaging in that kind of activity.
Let's get this out of the way.
Let's try to get this out of the way
by taking any love.
I want to stop the BP.
God, that's the most
romantic thing
you've ever said to me.
Stop at the BP.
You can get a quarter pounder
or I'll bloody pop over
to the BP
and get a slice
and a hot drink
and then we'll
snooze the rest of the way.
When you're on those back roads
or the freeway
behind Ngaruahi
is probably a better time
for sexy times.
Less traffic.
Well, that mass...
No.
Oh, what are you pulling off?
You're not taking
the Waikato Expressway?
I'm not taking the Expressway.
I'm just saying that would be better.
Because you've got four lanes in the city and it can slow down to a crawl.
I'm assuming if this car can self-drive, it can also tint the windows.
Well, there was nothing mentioned about tinting the windows.
No tinted windows.
No tinted windows.
What time of the day are we travelling?
5pm.
Am I allowed to put a blanket over us?
No.
It's just the truck drivers you've got to worry about.
Well, they can always see down, even now.
Let's always remember that.
Do I have a personalised plate?
Yes.
I've got a personalised plate so people could identify it.
I mean, they could identify your other plate.
They've just got to remember different letters.
Oh, yeah, but they're not going to spend the money to look that up.
Oh, right, yeah.
Who was that couple we saw have an at going through Otada on State Highway 1?
I'd still be a fan of getting it out of the way early so you can get the maximum out of sleep.
Okay, yeah, right.
But, I mean, the point of the question is can you –
Could you just play with yourself by myself or do I have to –
No, I think the point of the question –
I think the point of the question
is would you trust
a car,
a self-driving car?
I thought it was
how would you rather
spend your time
having a sleep.
the car is entirely reliable
and you've got a passenger
so if you want to
play with yourself
that's fine
but like you're
making a party watch
is the issue.
We're in a self-driving car,
they've got their own screen.
And if sex was on the agenda,
then the party watching
is probably your wife.
If it's not,
you've picked up a hitchhiker.
Probably more likely
than the car on the way down.
I'd be down for a sleep.
I'm always down for a sleep, though.
Probably a sleep.
I mean, when you think about it,
you sleep in a plane, right?
That's trusting
the whole plane flying
gravity thing,
isn't it?
Yeah.
You're not very well
going to just
have sexy time
on the seat.
Okay, you're in a
stretched limo
and the guy driving
has got the thing
up in the middle
so he can't look back
and you're driving
to Hamilton.
I don't know why
you're in a stretched limo
driving to Hamilton.
Fill that blank in yourself.
You're off to the ball.
Okay.
In Hamilton for some reason.
And would you do it then?
Yes, but don't touch my hair or my makeup.
Oh, because your hair and makeup's getting done.
Yeah.
That's when you do it.
I don't want to get out at the town hall and my hair's a mess.
I'm like, well, she's been fucked in the back of the limo.
Born! You just got told off. I'm like, well, she's been fucked in the back of the limo. Bourne.
You just got told off.
Well, what assume?
With your messed up hair and your slightly, like, your eye makeup's a bit runny.
You're looking a little bit, woo.
Slightly relaxed, a little too comfortable with yourself.
Okay, next question for our deep dive.
Things dads say.
Bourne.
Things dads say. I. Things dads say.
I built that.
Who's making all that noise?
I thought I said no.
You kids born in a bloody tent.
Right.
Getting up from the table.
Righto.
Oh, when they're off.
Yeah.
Righto.
Righto.
Going to see a man about a dog.
Yeah. That's a popular're off. Yeah. Righto. Righto. Going to see a man about a dog. Yeah.
That's a popular dad saying.
Yeah.
It's not that I don't love your mother.
It's just that she can be very testing.
That's another one.
My father never said that.
No.
He wouldn't dare speak out of turn.
He would get a smack.
He'd get a donk.
Other things dads say.
What's for dinner?
Shit rolled in cornies.
Yeah, they love a quick, witty comeback when you ask what's for dinner.
Yeah.
What's for dinner?
Pig shit and cabbage.
That was my grandad's favourite one.
What's for dinner?
I don't know.
What are you cooking?
That sort of stuff.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I'm hungry.
Oh, you don't look like hungry.
Oh, no, what's that other one? Hi, hungry. Yeah. Oh, I'm hungry. I'm hungry. Oh, you don't look like hungry. Oh, no, what's that other one?
Hi, hungry.
Yeah.
Oh, I'm hungry.
Hi, hungry.
Nice to meet you.
That's a classic.
Yep.
Dads say the darndest things.
That's what we're saying.
They do.
That's what we're saying, yeah.
All right, next one.
Secret Santas, yay or nay?
No.
The trouble is I like to give presents that are, like, worth it.
So, like, when you do $20 ones, you can't buy anything but $20.
You can buy lots of things for $20.
I like to give presents that actually, like, might mean something.
It's very frustrating.
Where did the tradition come from?
What's the origins of the Secret Santa?
I don't know.
I'll Google.
You don't want to know who you are.
In a family, a family's always bought everybody gifts,
and there would have been,
oh, it's getting to the point where it's too expensive,
and let's just Secret Santa say everyone buys one other person a gift.
At a workplace, no one was ever buying everybody else gifts at a workplace.
No.
Okay, so this is what Google says.
Secret Santa is a Western tradition.
A philanthropist named Larry Dean Stewart is thought to be the original Secret Santa
who came up with the idea of giving anonymous gifts during the holidays.
For more than 25 years, he secretly donated $100 bills to people in Kansas.
Oh, okay.
See, that's cool.
But that's different.
That's one man doing the buying for everybody.
Yeah, like an actual Santa.
This is an exchanging gifts
with one other person in your workplace.
See, yeah.
I like it when families do it.
Like giant families,
rather than buying like 20 presents.
Yeah, we do it in our fam.
A workplace secret, Sandra, is to like rip on someone, right?
Absolutely.
It's really like make fun of something they did during the year.
I don't do that.
Or really like slam them for a personality trait.
Like really like get something that really says.
For example, If Sally always
Makes tuna salads
Or microwaves
Smelly fish
Yeah
You would get her
A t-shirt that says
I'm an inconsiderate bitch
With a picture of a microwave
Underneath with a fish
In the middle
I'm
Hi I'm Sally
The bitch
Like she doesn't know Who it's from No No she doesn't And then you can deny it I'm Sally the bitch.
Like, she doesn't know who it's from.
No, no, she doesn't. And then you can deny it.
You can be like, no, I have.
No, but they always find out who they're from.
Because then they go around and they're like, who's my secret Santa?
So it's not even a secret Santa.
No, because everyone does that thing.
They're like, hey, who is yours?
Yeah.
Who is yours?
And it gets around.
And then it gets around and everyone works it out.
And then she knows that you called her a selfish bitch.
Yeah, well, it's good.
I'm glad somebody told her. She needed to be told, Megan. No, you know what? If you called her a selfish bitch. Yeah, well, it's good. I'm glad somebody told her.
She needed to be told, Megan.
No, you know what?
If you get someone and you need to tell, okay, so here's a little tip.
If you get someone and you need to tell them something, get them two gifts.
One, like a blah, blah, who cares?
Like if Sally's also a mum.
World's greatest mum.
And then you can be like,
I got you that, Sally.
And then someone's like,
oh, there's another present
for Sally.
And I'll be like,
no, but I already got,
Sally was my secret secret.
I already got her one.
And then she opens
the present and it's like,
I'm an inconsiderate bitch.
Microwave, fish.
And then I can be like,
oh, Sally, who did this?
Who did this to you?
All signs still point to you. They do. They've got be like, Sally, who did this? Who did this to you? All signs still point to you.
They do.
They've got a point, Sally.
But in a detective movie, you would be the first person they went to.
No, because I went, Sally!
Not my lovely Sally.
But the right Sally.
Fuck.
You've really got to start thinking about everybody else.
But you're right.
I don't think there's been a year that Secret Santa's happened
that there hasn't been a right fuck-up
where someone's missed out someone or there's been a double-up.
Or when someone just tells someone else that they were a bit busy.
That happened to Anya.
Executive intern Anya.
Was that your first year or your second year working at ZM?
Megan, put the mic over.
No comment, Your Honour.
No comment.
She wants to stay out of it. She's getting dragged out, kicking and screaming. First year. And she's pissed off. Secret Santa. We'll put the mic over. No comment, Your Honour. No comment. She wants to stay out of it.
She's getting dragged out, kicking and screaming.
First year.
And she's pissed off.
Secret Santa.
We'll get to the end.
She's like, I didn't get one.
I didn't get a Santa present.
And then the person who was supposed to buy her one said to her, sorry, I've been a bit
busy.
Like she had three weeks to do it.
That's good.
I'm totally buying my secret.
Don't be embarrassed.
It happened.
You didn't do it.
I think we should start a new tradition where everyone buys their secret Santa two presents.
One ruthless gift and one, who cares, like a cup that says Sally.
Great old, good old Sally.
Mustang Sally.
All right, next.
If you could cook any dish perfectly,
what would you choose?
No.
Oh.
Perfectly.
Lamingtons.
It would be, yeah, that quite hard, eh?
The secret is...
I do a good lamington, though, eh?
Is the secret freezing the sponge before you coat it?
It is, yeah.
Somebody told us that, eh?
Where did they work, Wishbone?
Well, no, they did the lamingtons for the airport.
That's right.
And they told us that.
Yeah.
I'd choose a hungie.
And then I'd invite you over.
And I would say, please, teach me the ways.
Where did it go so, so wrong for you?
Oh, that was a good burn.
That was good from you.
Good from you.
It shouldn't be that hard.
No.
But no, if I was going to cook something perfect, it would be harder than that.
Or something that's like notoriously hard to nail?
Pablova.
But nah, enough people get that right.
Soufflé, yeah.
Jared says soufflé.
What's the soufflé?
Something French.
All their stuff's difficult.
Right.
Bloody French, eh? Very difficult.
No, I take honey.
I'm going to double down on you, actually, if I could get that right.
Then I'd feel a lot better about myself after the hungy failure of Labor Weekend 2020.
Putting on a brave face there, Han.
That's good.
Yeah, thanks.
No, I'm struggling through.
I'm really struggling through.
That was a absolutely monumental fight.
It was a horrible time, wasn't it?
You were quite upset.
Then the dog ran through the fire.
It was just a whole lot of shit.
Anyway, we live and we learn.
We live and we learn.
At what exact dollar amount do you change from being well off to rich?
Oh.
I reckon that's geographically dependent.
Yeah.
Because I'd say in Auckland, because housing is so expensive,
it's kind of relative to housing, right?
Well, you think of what?
Like a million dollar house in Auckland
could be an absolute shitter
that you still have to spend heaps of money to do up.
Yeah.
But if you get a million dollar house
somewhere else in New Zealand
with a lovely big section,
it could be a brand new house.
Yeah.
Oosh.
From well off to rich.
I'm going to say $100 million.
Jesus!
Jesus! Just because you to say $100 million. Jesus. Jesus.
Just because you're worth $69 million?
That's right.
Do you remember my net worth online?
Yeah.
$69 million.
That's your estimated net worth.
Still haven't seen a fucking cent of that.
Which is more than the Wiggles.
Yeah.
We Googled their net worth this week.
Their net worth is worth $12 million.
And what?
Anthony's $20 million. $20 million. He's an OG though. He's an OG this week. Their net worth is 12 mil. And what, Anthony's 20?
20.
He's an OG though.
He's an OG wigs.
Estimated at 69.
Jesus, I don't know.
I think when you stop having to look at price tags,
does that mean you're rich?
It can be very humbling, Megan.
Yeah.
One day you're shopping at David Jones,
buying whatever you want, and then the next day you're shopping at David Jones buying whatever
you want
and then the next
day
you have to
look at the
price tag
you do
it's not about
the money
money
money
we just
talking about
today we
said money
can't buy
happiness
yeah
someone
someone was
really
miserable
I reiterated
give it to me
and I'll give
it a good crack.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, what was that noise?
Was that the recycling truck?
No, it's a baby.
Oh, it sounded like a...
You know how recycling trucks put on their brakes?
Interesting that your neighbour has written 14 on their letterbox in a whole word.
I know.
Fucking get rid of that.
It's not like it was one or two.
There's a lot of letters in there.
Did they buy all the letters from the Mighty 10 Mega or Bunnings?
Must have.
Or is it spray painted?
No.
It looks like an enamel.
Or like embossed.
It's sticky up.
Oh, no.
So they're letters.
Individual letters.
Brass or metal letters.
Yeah, okay.
No, I don't like that.
I would actually, if I lived here, I would go over in the dead of the night,
I'd rip them all off, I'd sand it down to a pre-coat.
Do we like them?
Are they nice?
Repaint the letterbox.
Yeah, no, they're nice.
And just put a one four on there.
I think I like the 14 written.
No.
It's different.
It stands out.
Yeah.
But it's weird because I've seen it ridden before, but it's always like 28.
So 20's on one line and like 8's on the next.
No.
No, it's a good touch.
I don't like it.
It's not a boutique Airbnb.
Nah, Pete's a good guy.
I think we've done with the last day's dive.
If my partner brought home this musical instrument, I'd pick up me bags.
I don't know if there is one.
Well, Charlotte didn't leave you when you brought the antique horn from the 1800s, did she?
The battle horn?
No, she didn't.
Have you had an ultimatum about that?
Has she actually been like, stop, you bloody stop?
Oh, just you bloody stop.
But that's not really an ultimatum.
She said that pretty much every day of her marriage.
You bloody stop that.
You bloody stop that. You bloody stop that.
You bloody stop that.
All the different punctuations.
They brought it home, but they can't play it.
They're practising.
They want to learn, maybe.
Violin.
That'd kill me.
I don't know if there is one.
No, that's one.
That's one.
Bagpipes.
Yeah, oh, that's a deal breaker.
I know, because they'd be down for it,
because that'd be fun to play on.
If you met a guy, like you were single, and you met a guy and he's real hot, everything's
ticking all the boxes.
Oh, he can play anything he wants.
And then the second night, he's like, oh, by the way, I play bagpipes.
I'm practicing in the morning, and he wakes you up.
You'd just be like, oh, I'm out.
I don't know if I would.
You'd see he's really hot.
Yeah.
And he's probably got a Scottish accent.
Because he plays the bagpipes.
He'd be busy every Christmas parade.
That's good though.
Keeps them busy.
Keeps them fit.
Keeps them out of trouble.
Beckel.
Looks good in a kilt.
Good set of lungs.
Got one of those.
What are those?
The fluffy bit at the front.
Bum bags cool.
Fanny packs. Yes, the Scottish fanny pack. The fluffy bit at the front. Bum bags called? Fanny packs.
Yes, the Scottish fanny pack.
The fluffy bit at the front of the kilt.
What is the Scottish fanny pack called?
The Scottish bum bag.
The veggie bag.
The veggie bag, that's not quite it.
The haggis bag.
I think you'll find it's called a veggie bag.
Next question. Wait. Are you Googling? Scottish. The duffel. I think you'll find it's called a veggie bag next question
wait
are you googling
the Scottish

Bagpipes.
If anybody listening needs a lovely visual image, Jerry Brownlee sitting on his chair in his kilt.
Oh.
You can see his knickers.
Well, Jerry Brownlee's not bringing home the bagpipes to play.
You're welcome.
I'm not dating Jerry Brownlee.
You're welcome.
I refuse to.
Just those people that are still waiting for their earthquake power?
Yep,
a little bit of a brownly dig there.
And next point.
Would you rather
teach your mum
how to use TikTok
or cut off
your second
to far left toe?
All of our mothers
would just be like,
they wouldn't want to,
would they?
No,
but if I had to,
I think it'd be pretty...
I think my mum
would like TikTok.
I reckon Bev
would be a hit on TikTok with her roses.
Oh, yeah, she would be.
She'd be in the garden.
She'd be in the garden.
I don't know what my mother could bring to TikTok.
Some no-nonsense life advice.
She'd do those duets, you know,
where you add yourself to somebody's existing video
and it would be like someone dancing.
She'd be like, no, no, no, no, no.
You go put some clothes on.
How old is this?
Ian, Ian, come here.
How old do you think this one is?
My mum's TikTok would be like personal reviews of your personality.
I'd watch that.
Yeah.
I should be a hit.
Maybe I should teach my mum to use TikTok.
That would be, there you go.
We're all keeping our ties and teaching our mums to use TikTok.
Okay.
Only one of you is rated as a 10.
Pitch your case and decide amongst yourselves who it is.
Oh, I don't want to be.
I'm opting out.
Yeah, I'm opting out.
Megan's a 10.
Yes.
We know that's true anyway.
Jeff's a 10.
Well, now that you mention it.
If any of us are going to be a 10.
Well, now that you mention it. I'm also us are going to be a 10. Well, now that you mention it.
I'm also the baby, so, yeah.
He's too old.
No, but you also, we said that because we're just being nice.
You're obviously not the 10.
Yeah, I thought it was more of a charity.
I'm 100% the 10.
I don't know, man.
I divs in the 10.
Yeah, you're the 10.
Don't say it like that.
No, no, no, no, no.
You're the 10.
No, no, I'm the 10.
You're definitely the 10.
No, no, yeah, yeah. You're the 10. No, no. You're the 10. You're definitely the 10. No, no. Yeah, yeah.
You're the 10.
Thank you.
She's the 10.
She's the 10.
She's definitely the 10.
What's the oddest thing you've kept for sentimental reasons?
Oh.
Oh.
I throw everything out, really.
I'm like, oh, that was nice.
Same.
Vaughn, you're the hoarder.
You've probably got everything.
I've got some stuff in my parents' house from my high school years,
but I think it was just like little notes and letters
and bits and pieces from different people.
I don't even...
Reading them would be so horribly awkward.
I wouldn't be interested in it.
But...
Like odd things. You've got things that you've kept, but maybe not odd. Yeah. so horribly awkward. I wouldn't be interested in it. But, um...
Like, odd things.
You've got things that you've kept,
but maybe not odd.
Yeah.
I don't know if they're odd.
I think we've still got
one of the girls' umbilical cords.
Oh, okay.
That's pretty weird.
Well, that's just the little nubby bit.
Just the little nubby bit
that they leave on the baby
as it falls off.
Does it look like that salami stick
on the platter?
No, it's not nearly as meaty
as that salami stick.
Where is it kept? Just in a box in the wardrobeatter? No, it's not nearly as meaty as that salami stick. Where is it kept?
Just in a box in the wardrobe, I think.
That's different.
That'll be attracting flies.
No, it's too dry.
It's Indies, I think, so it's nine years old.
You know August is going to be like, why do you keep mine?
Why by me?
We'll get out one day and be like, this is your own biblical court.
Why is my abalacacai?
Oh, you didn't have one.
I don't believe that for a second.
She'll disappear and come back.
I've done Googling.
I did have an umbilical cord.
Everybody has an umbilical cord.
Where's my umbilical cord?
And then I will.
I'll just chew the end off one of those little chorizo sticks.
And I'll be like, here's yours.
There you go.
You can put that in your little box of memories.
Good, I will.
Why does it smell so peppery?
I love that kid.
Why does it smell like this?
Do vegetables have feelings?
No, there was a study.
Lettuce.
Yeah, lettuce and carrots.
They don't like being boiled.
But it's hard to know if that was vegan propaganda.
Anti-vegan propaganda. That propaganda. Anti-vegan propaganda.
That they were anti-vegan propaganda.
Yeah.
No, it was lettuce and stuff, eh?
That they had feelings momentarily.
Is that a big underground movement, the anti-vatch?
I believe it is.
Fletch.
I've heard of Antifa.
I just have no idea of anti-vatch.
Yes.
No, it is. Right. But do they all have feelings or was it just a select few? I've heard of Antifa. I just had no idea of anti-fetch. Yes, yeah.
No, it is.
Right.
But do they all have feelings or was it just a select few?
No, but it's a living thing, right?
It must have some sort of system.
But it's not feelings like we have feelings.
Like feelings like that thing particularly makes me sad.
Well, maybe we can test some of those baby potatoes from episode one.
Yeah, well, you don't want to talk to them.
They've been through some things.
They don't necessarily want to stay involved
in that whole feelings situation.
No, but not feelings like sad,
just hurt.
Like, oh, that hurts.
Oh.
No, I don't think
they have those sorts of feelings.
No, don't be bloody stupid.
I don't think a lot of things
have those sorts of feelings.
No, not at all.
No.
I don't believe
in my completely unqualified to say opinions.
I think they do.
I'm absolutely willing to apologise if one day I'm a carrot and somebody's grating me.
Oh my God.
I will take back everything I've just said, but until then, no, I don't believe they do.
Good luck out there, vegetables.
Good luck.
Being beautiful or being funny?
You can't have both.
Don't ask.
Well, I guess this is hypothetical given that I obviously have both.
Funny, right?
Because beauty fades.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, so true.
But then beautiful people get like everything.
Early on.
I know.
They could set themselves up for success.
Yes.
What did you do with all your stuff?
When you got it?
Where did you put it?
Where is it?
Why isn't it here?
Why haven't you shown or told us?
That's like the triangle, eh?
You can't be smart, beautiful and sane.
Yeah.
You can only ever be two.
Yeah. So beautiful and smart, but then You can only ever be two. Yeah.
So beautiful and smart,
but then you're crazy, eh?
Mm.
That's how it goes.
Mm.
Or smart and not crazy.
But do you know who's always confused me
in that spectrum is Kanye.
He's beautiful.
What?
Is he smart?
Everyone thinks he's a genius, but is he?
He's got a billion dollars. That's quite smart. Is Kanye beautiful? Yeah. Is he smart? Everyone thinks he's a genius, but is he? Well, he's got a billion dollars.
That's quite smart.
Is Kanye beautiful?
Yeah.
Is he?
He's an attractive guy.
I never thought he was judged as sort of held up as a beautiful man.
Oh, I don't think he's unattractive.
He's no Ryan Gosling.
Okay.
No, very different.
That's a beautiful man.
He's not Idris Elba.
Oh, who is?
You've triggered Megan.
Who is?
So what, is Idris Elba not smart?
Or is he crazy?
What is his...
So you don't know.
He could be the trifecta.
Okay, what's Ryan Reynolds then?
Because you'd say he's funny, smart.
He's insane.
Do you think he's crazy?
A little bit.
He might be a bit crazy.
Yeah. He doesn't seem it though, does he? He's not bad crazy. He's insane. Do you think he's crazy? A little bit. He might be a bit crazy. Yeah.
He doesn't seem it, though, does he?
Not like bad crazy.
He doesn't seem it, though.
Just might be a lot.
Yeah, right.
You'd be like, calm down, right?
I'm trying to watch a bloody movie.
Yeah.
And he's adding...
Stop bloody doing a video with Hugh Jackman about...
See, just sit on the couch for once.
About his coffee and your gin.
Yeah.
You silly beggars.
You're playing the fool.
No, but Funny Over Beautiful, I think.
Do we have to choose one for ourselves?
Yeah, me too.
Funny Over Beautiful.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Next, please.
How do you not get a second date?
Nazi uniform.
Didn't we do this one a couple of episodes ago? How do you not get a second date? Nazi uniform. Didn't we do this one a couple of episodes ago?
How do you not get a second date?
So the idea is you go on a date and you're like,
I don't want a second,
I don't want them to even believe I'm into a second date.
Nazi uniform.
Unless they're a Nazi, that's not a guarantee.
I'm guessing that you intended you went there
and it's not until afterwards that you decided
you didn't want a second date.
See, would it be like every time they had an opinion, be like, okay.
Like not say that's a bad opinion, but like second guess everything they say.
Is that right?
That would be annoying.
Yeah.
Yeah, how annoying would that be?
Everything you said, someone's like, really?
Hmm.
Is that?
Oh, okay.
Oh, God, That would be horrible.
I hate it when you go out with someone and they start being arrogant to the servers.
Oh, yeah.
But then if you start doing that, then you're just being an arsehole as well.
Yeah, exactly.
You're being an arsehole and then the servers have got a poor opinion of you as well.
And then they might be like, ha, ha, ha, that was a good one.
Watch this.
And then you're like, okay, now we're both being assholes.
Doing this and they're like, man, we should go on a second date.
It's not often you find another asshole.
You're like, God, I should have second guessed them
because assholes don't like being second guessed.
Does anybody really enjoy being second guessed?
No.
No.
Really?
Is that, okay, I'll take your word for it.
Yeah, that's what I'd do.
Second guess them on everything. Let. Yeah, that's what I'd do. Second guessing on everything.
Let's try.
Let's role play.
Okay.
I'm me.
I'm the guy that's trying not to get a second date.
This is after the farmer's market.
Okay.
Things haven't gone so well.
Where is our date?
Just at a restaurant.
Just a standard sort of a food place. Buffet? Nope. No, it's an a la carte. It's a restaurant. Just a standard sort of a food place.
Buffet?
No.
No, it's an a la carte.
It's a menu.
Okay.
But you chose.
Definitely not a buffet.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
Hi.
No, we're on the date.
We don't need to say hi.
We're already sat down.
I thought I was meeting you outside and we were going in.
No, no, we're already in.
We're sat down.
We've ordered our drinks.
Okay.
You say.
Okay.
Oh, I'm ordering my drink? No, we've ordered our drinks. Oh, okay. We've ordered our drinks. Okay. You say. Okay. Oh, I'm ordering my drink?
No, we've ordered our drinks.
Oh, okay.
We've ordered our drinks.
No, no, no.
Order your drink.
Order your drink.
Oh, okay.
Hello, can I please have a mojito?
Interesting.
Can I have.
What?
Why was that interesting?
Oh, I just think it's interesting that a man of your age would order a mojito, but that's.
See, I'm not getting...
I'm on my way.
We only just arrived here.
I want to leave now.
That was rude.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's how you do it.
Oh, really?
Okay, okay.
And then do things like, oh, I'll have the steak.
I'll have it...
Oh, do you need that much steak?
Medium.
And you're like, oh, will you?
That's a bit of a waste of steak, isn't it?
Oh, yeah.
Shit.
That is a waste of steak.
Anything above medium rare,
he might as well be bloody throwing it in the fire
and coming back years later.
Next question.
Oh, is that it?
Is that the end?
That's the end of part three.
That was the end of part three of this summer deep dive.
Was it more of a shallow wade?
Sometimes a light touch-off.
Paddle.
Maybe just a toe-in and be like,
oh, no, too cold for me.
ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Thedle. Maybe just a toe-in and be like, oh no, too cold for me. you you
