ZM. Head music lives here. Fletch, Fawn and Megan. The podcast. Thanks, Anya. Good morning. Welcome to the show. Fletch, Fawn and Megan. Happy Friday. Happy Friday. Fawn. What? Are you not happy it's Friday? No, my headphones, it's got to that point where I have to get it just right or it crackles and it only goes in one ear. Oh, yeah, me too. I don't know if that's the hole or the plug itself. It's my plug, I think.

Is that your plug? Just give it a wee jigsaw. I see, I need to try another hole and then I'll know if it's the headphone hole or the headphone jack. Yeah, right. And then the problem solving begins. Otherwise, a good Friday. Neither here nor there, that's fine.

It's okay. This morning, I don't want to understate this. I should, in fact, overstate this. We have a huge announcement at 8 o'clock. Oh, yeah. I was sitting here thinking, what is that? I've completely forgotten. And then I remembered.

Man, that's a good feeling when you remember and it hits you like a ton of bricks. You're like, oh, yeah. Like an actual surprise. Yeah. Yeah. Eight o'clock this morning. Chance to win cash this morning. I think we're getting close to finding a winner for our game 20 questions.

Yeah. Especially after Megan gave it away yesterday with her clothes. Hmm. It wasn't Megan. No. Who got told off when the microphones were not? I got told off when the microphones were not. It was you.

So we're thinking of a mystery random item and New Zealand has 20 questions. Yes, no questions to try and figure it out. Just yes or no. How many questions do we have left? Six? Four. Five.

Four. Four. Yeah. Four questions remain to win $2,000 cash. So we'll give you the chance at seven and at eight o'clock

this morning. Special guest on the show this morning. What time's he popping at just about what? Quarter past, twenty past eight. Cliff Curtis,

who is in the new Fast and the Furious movie. And the new New Zealand safety video. Yeah. What's the new Russell Hobbs? Fast and Furious, movie. And the new New Zealand safety video. Yeah, what's the new Russell Hobbs? Fast and Furious,

Hobbs and Shaw. Hobbs and Shaw. Russell Hobbs. You've seen it, Intern, because your boyfriend is a boy racer. Loves a vroom vroomer, Andy.

He does, yeah. How many vroom vrooms out of five do you give it? Five. Easily. I feel like that's a lot. I feel like you just went along because Eli's faster. What did Andy, how many vroom vrooms did Andy give it?

Andy said it could have had a bit more vroom, but I enjoyed the plot, which was vroom based, and had some good vroom characters in it. Brilliant. Okay. Right. Alright. Was there a post-credits room? We didn't stay. It was like 8.30. I was ready to go to bed. Too much rooming for one day. A lot of room.

Too much what? Okay. Family show, aren't you? Please. Alright, you lot. Listen up. It's story time. Well, I have literally scoured the internet looking for news headlines and stories.

I found three goodies. Megan, Vaughan, decide which one of the following three we delve into. Headline one, drunk man removed from plane. Headline two, long visit to the dentist. And headline three, man's hold-up note gives him away. That actually reminds me of the second story about the dentist. I'm booking a dental trip.

Oh my God, finally? And when we're in Bali. Are you? Yeah, I'm going to spend a day or a morning at the dentist. Comes with a full local recommendation from someone who goes a bit, and the whole family's been to this dentist. So do they do it? Because what if you need lots of work?

Wouldn't you be better to go get an x-ray here and send it here? No, they just get it all done in a day. Really? They just get you in. Are you doing it at the start of your holiday? Yeah. What if you're like in pain for your whole holiday? You're not, you're only like in pain for the day.

Yeah. All that time. That's a good idea because you've got that temporary. I really feel like it'll backfire on Vaughan. How cheap is it though? Quite a bit cheaper. I'm imagining it would be. Quite a bit cheaper.

I think it was four fillings for like the equivalent of 300 New Zealand dollars maybe. Jeez, okay. That's what this person got. Somebody else got crowns. Yeah, significantly cheaper. Having to spend a lot of money at the dentist, I'm all for this move. You need a crown, right? I don't know, Megan.

A lot of things. Yes, he does. Good Lord. I just keep Sensodyne-ing away my problems. I don't. Actually, that's not the ad for Sensodyne-ing away my problems. I don't. Actually, that's not the ad for Sensodyne, I should say. It promotes it. It promotes it.

People are like, oh, my teeth sting when I breathe cold air. And Sensodyne's like, pfft, it's Sensodyne. And you're like, oh, okay, Sensodyne. I've got to literally achieve a Sensodyne, and I'll only use it if my teeth start getting a little bit tingly. Yeah, right. And then it goes away away and you're like, sweet, on with life.

Why are you got that temporary bridge like five years ago? They're all just going to fall out. If I can correct you there, it was eight years ago. Oh my God.

Wow. Yeah, but I'm already doing better than my generations before. My granddad lost all his, he had false teeth by the time he was 21. Right.

I think his parents got him false teeth for his 21st birthday. So that's not too bad, eh? Yeah. Yeah. Not bad. I've already beaten him.

Which story do you want then? What was three? Man's hold up note gives him away or I think I want to know the dentist one. What was the dentist one?

The long visit to the dentist. Yeah, okay. I wanted to put the shits up for him before he goes. We go to Chennai now, India, where a boy went to the dentist. He had a swollen right cheek. He's seven.

And his parents thought, heck, he must have some tooth decay. He must have an abscess. So we'll take him to the dentist finally. Tucked inside his tiny lower jaw. No, I don't want to know. Was a tarantula. No, I'm kidding. Because you hate spiders.

I've just literally gone to spiders. Tucked inside his right tiny lower jaw were 526. Eggs of some. Maggots. Maggots. No. Teeth. What? Eggs of some Maggots Maggots No Teeth What?

How do you have 526 teeth? That's impossible He'd be like So the abnormal teeth Embedded in the jawbone Were not visible from the outside of the mouth Dentists surgically removed all of them And retained his normal teeth numbering 21.

And on Wednesday the boy climbed onto his father's arms, shyly smiled at the flashing media cameras and touched his jaw and said no pain. Oh my god. I just googled it. They're not all full sized teeth. No, no. They're all like tiny specks.

Yeah. So it's more like... But then, so are they saying that each one of those things constitutes a tooth? Yeah, they are. So they're... Jesus. So it's called compound composite odontoma. Odontoma.

Odontoma, is that how you'd say that? Odontoma. So it's a rare condition. The teeth were all in different sizes between 0.1 mils to 15 mils was the biggest one. So that's still a normal tooth size, especially for a seven-year-old. And yeah, they look like kind of pearls in an oyster, according to this dentist. Even the smallest piece had a crown, root and enamel coating like a tooth. Wow.

She said this is the dentist. Isn't that just insane? Good Lord. And they just thought it was an abscess. 526 teeth with a root, enamel, even the smallest ones. That's nuts. So just under his bottom jaw. Yeah.

So they've all been removed now and he's fine. But yeah, not so. Did he have much jaw bone once the teeth were removed? No, he looks like a normal seven-year-old kid. Wow, that's crazy. Hey, so good luck in Bali, mate.

Well, I know there's not more under there because I've had an x-ray before. Yeah, so you know you're fine. A long time ago. Old technology, though. Yeah. And you know you're fine. A long time ago. Old technology, though. Yeah. And this condition could have happened in the meantime.

Yeah, exactly. I would have felt it by now. Unless I'm just sensed on in that way as well. You can always numb the pain, though, with that bootleg liquor that they sell in Bali. Oh, I was thinking prescription medications. Those two, sure. Yeah. Your mum's probably got a cabinet full of them from her last trip to Thailand, has she? prescription medications. Those two, sure. Your mum's probably got a cabinet full of them from her last trip to Thailand, has she?

I don't know what she picked up in the last summer she was in Thailand. Because they've clamped down on it. Yeah, they've made it a little bit harder. No, yeah. Can't go in there with a shopping list anymore. No. And get it all back through customs.

Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. ZM. Yesterday at one gas station in Auckland and one in Christchurch it was the BP Connect in Ormiston in Auckland which I just had to look up because I've never heard of that before yeah it's our what have you never heard of Ormiston no I haven. Oh, I thought that was a joke. No. Oh, okay. Why would you have been to Ormiston, South East Auckland?

You see that on the signs, Joe. What signs? To go to Ormiston. No. Never heard of it in my life. You're talking to a guy that won't go to Botany Town Centre, Megan. Oh, okay.

What do I need to go to East Auckland for? You're a Westie. Absolutely no need to go on that half of Auckland. I'll stick to the West. Okay. Unless you want an ice skating rink and then you'll go crawling back. Actually, no, we've got Paradise Ice Skating in Henderson, so stick that right up your bum.

Okay. Kind of an Avondale, Newland, West Auckland situation. So two petrol stations, both BPs, gave away free petrol for an hour. Conditions were no more than 50 litres. Okay. And just for that hour, despite, you know, you might be in the line. Yeah. And you may have waited for the whole hour, but when that hour was over.

Done. I think the technical term, tough titties. Tough titties, yeah. And there was no more petrol. This was big for them because petrol stations never just give away free fuel, do they? And you imagine how many people they can get through in an hour.

It's a lot. More than 700 people filled up for free. Holy! And 50 litres, let's imagine that they all took 50 litres. Yep. Petrol's $2. But they're not paying $2. No, no, imagine that they all took 50 litres. Yep. Petrol's $2. But they're not paying $2. No, no, no, they're not.

They're paying. But still, that's a lot, eh? Is that 35,000 litres? I'm like trying to do maths. Yes. Is it? Good maths! Good from you.

Good from you. And if it's over $2 a litre $70,000 But I mean It got a lot of Oh it got so much press Like you couldn't buy The amount of press They had yesterday

No Leading all the news sites We're talking about it now Everyone was talking about it Yeah But they talked about it After it had happened I didn't know

That that was happening I know they sprung They really sprung it Didn't they I felt like It was a few hours before They were like This is happening

Because otherwise People would have taken a day off work, wouldn't they? People just left work. And if you're wondering why they were doing free fuel, I'm not going to tell you. Because that's what they want us to do. Anyway. Is it?

Yep, that's exactly right. They did it for a purpose. But I'm not sharing. Because I didn't get any fuel. We're not getting anything out of this. Give me free fuel, we might be able to talk business. Yeah. Ha, ha, ha.

So, there was a lot of problems, as you can imagine, because. There was a massive queue of people, right? Huge queues. Huge queues. And people definitely missed out. Someone on Christchurch said it felt like the days after the 2011 earthquakes, you know, it was just impossible to drive anywhere. Roads were ripped up, closed, impossible to get over. So there was that.

Somebody waited, as I said before, for the entire hour to be told no, just as they pulled up. So there was that. The traffic on Linwood Ave stretched all the way back to the Avon River. Somebody else in Christchurch said. I would have just given up. Unless I was

there from the start, there's no way. I'd just, I'd be too frustrated yeah so other people the other side of things there were people who were like super stoked

they got they would have been so happy yeah a lady was crying she was so happy she got gas somebody else had to push their car in because it ran out of gas

while they were waiting in the line for it but probably the story of the day is that a young man turned up for his free petrol but his licence had been suspended.

And the police said, well you can't have free petrol because your licence has been suspended. You shouldn't be driving this car. And also, we're not going to stop you for this but we know you're a gang prospect. And apparently someone on the BP forecourt said, no, no, they can have free fuel.

So then the headline became, BP give gang prospect free fuel despite suspended license. All this good publicity. Yeah. Brilliant. I'm done. Just like that.

Like that. For fueling up a gang prospect. Brilliant. All right. 6.22 on that. We are in, we've got free fuel next week. We're going to do some free fuel next week.

So make sure you're listening. And you don't have to queue up for it. You don't have to queue up? No. No? I don't really know any other details on that. Someone just said we're going to do it next week. I'm like, good, we should do that.

That would be lovely. Fletchborn and Megan's Community Notices. Hello and welcome to Community Notices, a segment of the show where we have a look at what's happening around New Zealand according to local Facebook pages. Let's dive straight into it with a trip to the Hamilton and Waikato buy, sell and trade page. Ricky Lee's got something for sale.

It's an urn. It's used. It's used. They're selling it as on my father's one-year anniversary, we spread his ashes. As we paid $600 for this urn, we no longer have a need for it

so there's $200. Now, when I first saw it, I was like, whew. But then I thought, why not? Well,

you'd reuse a salad bowl, you'd sell a salad bowl, wouldn't you? You'd be a salad bowl if you had a dad in it. Washing it out, right? I'd imagine so. Like,

you'd have to dry out the urn, though. You wouldn't want to put ashes into a wet urn that'd stick to the sides. Yeah. Is it, um, it's ceramic, right? No, this is like a metal one, actually. I think it's quite nice. It's got like a bronze ring around the middle. Oh, a dishwasher safe?

It looks like a shaker. Yeah. A cocktail shaker. It looks like a cocktail shaker, yeah. Well, it's slightly different. I mean, you can use it for whatever you want. It's $200. Can you put my ashes into my cocktail shaker. Well, it's slightly different. I mean, you can use it for whatever you want. It's $200. Can you put my ashes into my cocktail shaker?

In a mojito? My gold cocktail shaker. Would mojito be your choice? Yeah. Oh, we're not actually making a cocktail. You're not making a cocktail, no, because you wouldn't fit, because I'd be in there already. Yeah.

Oh. I wasn't planning on drinking you, by the way. Just making. I just thought, like, make you into mojito. No, no, make me into a mojito and sprinkle my mojito into the ocean. Okay, sure. That is pretty good. But anyway, that's a sale on the

Hamilton and Waikato page if anybody wants it. Do it out to sea because I don't want to be mixed into a triathlon or something. Or a yacht race. I was just going to pour you into a creek. Okay, fine. Just for the sake of ease. Next up from the Eastbourne Community Notice into a creek. Okay, fine. Just for the sake of ease. Okay, yeah.

Next up from the Eastbourne Community Notice Board, Michael writes, I found ladies' gloves outside Eastbourne Liquor. They smell wonderfully aromatic. I snapped that. Aromatic. I know.

He found some gloves and sniffed them. He gave them a sniff. Good Lord. Aromatic how? Well, Graham's got the questions. How do you know that ladies' gloves?

And is sniffing gloves a local thing? There's probably some bloke too embarrassed to come forward to claim as aromatically scented lady gloves now. Yeah. But, yeah, I would never think. Unless, you know, sometimes you pick up something, like a scarf, for example, and somebody sprayed perfume. Yeah.

And you can smell it without even putting it up to the sniffer for a bit. Yeah. Well, yuck. That was real creepy. It's important to always give a nice, creepy, slow breath out after you sniff something.

Sniff something. Sniff something. And finally, from the Ashburton buy, sell and exchange page, lost, writes Dominique. Lost with exclamation points either side to really grab one's attention. Hi everyone. I was not long

in the public restrooms and I accidentally left my vape behind. And someone has picked it up as I went straight back to get it. I'd like it back please. Have been to the police. Picture and comments of the device. It's lookless. To be honest the vape looks like it's got please. Have been to the police. Picture and comments of the device. It's lookless. To be honest, the vape looks like it's got a power shell. Oh, okay.

Sort of signed to it. They can be quite expensive, can't they? I've never purchased. I don't know how much vapes are, but I imagine. I've had a vape on the side of the road. Me and the girls went and, like, picked up rubbish off the side of the road out of place, and I found, like, a near new looking vape on the side of the road. You made it sound like you'd vaped on the side of the road at our place and I found like a near new looking vape on the side of the road. You made it sound like

you'd vaped on the side of the road. You said, I've had a vape. I said, I found a vape. Oh, I thought you said

I've had a vape. And then you said me and the girls. I was like, what? We just went down the side of the road. Come on girls,

come with your old dad. We're going to have a vape down the road so the missus doesn't get a meows about it. It's better for you than smoking, you see. Because there's no...

I mean, I can stop them any time I want. Well, I like this voice. Yeah. Just, oh, man, what are you doing over there? You're making a bloody mess of things. Go, I'll show you. Dang it. I just got a bloody roll to seg before I did.

I reckon I actually know people who have a voice like that. I know. I thought you were on the vapes now I was on the bloody vapes But I might as well be on the bloody cities It's costing me a bloody fortune We all know an old mate like that We actually do

A couple Alright then I'm bloody done I'm going to have a bloody dowry out the back I'll go round the back of the woodshed now Because the missus is at me house About bloody blowing all my bloodyry on the back. I'll go round the back of the woodshed now because the missus is at me house about bloody blowing all my bloody pension on the dowries again.

Like I need a hair from that bitch any more than I already do. All right, well, I'll get you. That's all I'm fucking making notices. You bloody get out of here. Go on, bugger off. ZM's Fletch Warner Megan, the podcast. Well, it's bad news if The podcast Well it's bad news

If you pay the Netflix Or bad news for Megan's parents Who pay her Netflix Don't tell mum She might cancel it And that'll just screw up The whole family Who else is on your parents?

My brother We've all got a We've all got a We've all got the login Profile My sister-in-law My niece Me

Mum and dad We all fight Because I've only got like two. Two people can be using it at once. So we always message each other like, mum, do you have to watch that Tom Cruise movie again? I'm paying. Actually, no, they're real partial to a Bruce Willis movie. Of course they are.

Who isn't? Yeah. All the time, like a Friday night. Even mum likes a Bruce Willis movie. Oh, loves it. Really isn't? Yeah. All the time. Like a Friday night. Even mum likes a Bruce Willis movie. Oh, loves it. Really? She calls it a shoot-em-up. She's like, I'm just watching a good shoot-em-up.

I'm like, you've seen it before. Well, she needs to upgrade so multiple more people can log in. I know. Well, Netflix are hiking the prices and people aren't happy. A lot of people have said on social media that they're leaving. The basic plan will now cost $11.99. So this depends on when your next bill comes in, but I think it's immediate.

Is that, what was it before? I don't know. No, so there's different plans worn. So the standard, $16.99, and the premium will now be $21.99. Right. So you're paying $18, and you're going to now pay $21.99.

Yeah, sure. Because if you've got an HD TV or a Flash TV, yeah, if you get the premium, you get more logins, but you get the HD. Ultra HD. Ultra HD. Mum's got the middle one, so how much is she going to be paying now? So she's going to be paying $16.99.

That's all right, she can afford it. But then, like, you think about how much Sky used to cost, your parents. Oh, yeah. I never had Sky. No, I never did. Flatting. But, I mean, heck, that's still not what you'd pay for Sky. And everyone's like, oh, we're, like, boycotting Netflix.

You'll be back. They know everyone's back. They've done the maths. They're not idiots. They'll get back. Especially with the release, like, what they're releasing in August alone. Like, is this the new Mindhunter? Mindhunter season two August alone. There's the new Mindhunter. Mindhunter season two, yeah.

There's the new 13 Reasons. Yeah. I saw a list the other day, big rep. In fact, I logged on to, and then you've got like your Neons, your Lightbox. So even if you had those, you're still not going to pay what you used to pay for Sky a month. And all the big movie stars they get doing Netflix movies,

I'm always like, how are they paying them? Hey, they get massive stars. I think they're losing a lot of money, Meg. I think they're losing a lot of money. Well, that's why they're saying it needs to go up in New Zealand is because we're not paying our fair share for original content. Right. I downloaded Prime.

You got me onto this, Vaughan. Amazon Prime. Amazon Prime. Because that app's on my new Samsung TV. And that's only, it was $2.99. For the first six months. That's American. And then it goes up.

That's American dollars. Because I, Fleabag, let's recommend Fleabag, if you haven't seen that. Oh my God, that's so funny. Shows on there, I'd recommend Fleabag. Good Omens is really good, if you're into sort of a comical take on religion. And also The Boys,

which has got two Kiwis in it, Kalo Barn and Anthony Starrer, and that's basically about a bunch of people who try to rein in superheroes who are just doing whatever they want. Which is apparently really good. Right. There's heaps of stuff on there.

Oh, so much stuff. Almost like you could probably, if you're sick of Netflix, just not pay for a couple of months and then I guess you could kind of hop around like Lightbox, all of them. Yeah, you totally could, kind of hop around, like light box all of them, couldn't you really? Yeah, you totally could, right?

And just cancel or postpone it and come back later when they've got something you want. Like do six months here, six months there, six months there. It's a lot of admin.

Or, it is, but or just get Megan's mum's login. Yeah. Well, no, you can't because she doesn't have premium. There's only two available. There's only two available. Because I heard in this Netflix story

it said two million people in New Zealand have access to Netflix. I was like, they know. How many are actually paying? From the ZM Think Tank, this is the Top Six. Good morning. The Los Angeles Police Department have said they'll be taking on board some 5,000 volunteers for stakeout missions.

Extra eyes out there if you're a nosy parker. Sounds like a plot to a hilarious comedy movie, doesn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like Police Academy. Yeah, you go on stakeouts volunteering. Yeah. And then you solve big crime situations. So I thought

why aren't we doing this at home? Yeah. Like the New Zealand Police Force absolutely worked. Yeah, resources are stretched, aren't they? this at home? Yeah. The New Zealand Police Force, they've absolutely worked. Yeah, resources are stretched, aren't they? Yeah, so maybe some volunteers are required. I've got the top six ways you could volunteer for the New Zealand Police Force. Okay. Number six, let the police dogs sniff your drugs so they know what drugs smell like.

Okay, yeah. Yeah, so if you've got some drugs. But obviously you can't be caught, eh? Because you're helping out. It's like an amnesty if you're helping. Yeah, so if you've got some drugs. But obviously you can't be caught, eh? Because you're helping out. It's like an amnesty if you're helping. But you don't have to give it up, like an amnesty. Just let them have a sniff.

Just don't be stingy, let them have a sniff. I mean, I'm sure they've got some drugs in the confiscation room. Not anymore. Not anymore? Big weekend. Oh, right, okay. Number five on the list of the top six ways to volunteer for the New Zealand Police Force or, you know, help them out. Point a hairdryer at cars on a road known for speed.

Just park your car on the side of the road there. It would work very well if you had a Commodore or a Falcon. Yeah. One of those sort of traditional police vehicles. Yeah. That would be a bit better. Maybe a station wagon, maybe a van. Yeah.

And just point a hairdryer at them. Just slow them down and then the police don't have to do it. Good idea. Number four on the list of the top six ways to help out the New Zealand Police Force by volunteering your time. While you're waiting on that side of that road with the hairdryer, build a speed bump because you'll have to go home at some stage to your family or to your other job that actually pays the bills and that speed bump will slow them down when you can't be there.

There's no problem at all just putting a speed bump at 100k zone? No warning? I can't think of any. Okay, right here. The bloody councillors will be doing it forever. With potholes. Am I right? Why would they fix everything?

Number three on the list of the top six ways to help out the New Zealand police force by volunteering. Make your white car look like a police car with some stickers and some lights from JCAR Electronics. And that'll not only stop speeding, as previously discussed in points five and four, but it will also just stop crime in general. Getting very close.

Everybody behaves a little bit better. Yeah, getting very close to imitating a police officer there, Vaughan. Yeah, but you're volunteering. You're volunteering. You're helping out. You're helping out. Exactly, exactly.

That's the difference here. You're helping out. Number two on the list of the top six ways to volunteer your time for the New Zealand Police Force are dust for your own fingerprints and maybe dust, you know, for everybody else. You know, if anybody has a break and you can go around and do the fingerprints, you'll just need some talcum powder.

Okay. A dry paintbrush and some sellotape. From what I've seen on these shows. Very easy. It looks very easy. Very easy. Just give it a light with the talcum. Not like heaps of talcum like that. When you first open it. Yeah. And it goes like that. And then with the paintbrush, just give it a little little dab. that. One, when you first open it. Yeah. And it goes like that.

And then with the paintbrush, just give it a little dab. And then when you find one, sellotape on. Brilliant. Sellotape off. Yeah. You got a fingerprint. Are you sure this evidence will hold up in court? 100%.

Okay, girl. It's best to just get fully involved. Okay, nice. Fully involved. Number one on the list of the top six ways to volunteer your time for the New Zealand Police Force. Just save them the time and start making some citizens arrests. Okay.

Basically, for anything that you deem to be inappropriate, maybe it's not even illegal. You just don't like it. Okay. Start making some citizens arrests. I recommend a good heavy cable tie in place of police handcuffs. Okay, nice. Yeah, nice. They're quite hard to break out of.

Yeah. Maybe even, maybe if you've got the time, make yourself a little outfit. A little uniform. Cute. A little blue top. Can you zhuzh it up and make it a little bit cuter? You can zhuzh it up and make it a little bit cuter. You're talking like you have more of a plunging neckline.

Yeah. A little heel. Exposed to midriff. Totally acceptable in this volunteers game for the New Zealand Police Force. That is today's top six alright 20 questions we have 4 questions left a chance for you to win

$2,000 cash next $2,000 up for grabs with our game 20 questions getting to the business end of things here yeah I'll do a quick recap.

I believe we've got, what, four questions left? Yeah, four remain. Is it a living thing? No. Is it found in a house? No. Is it a power tool? No.

Does it have a motor? No, it does not. Is it something you would wear? No, you cannot wear this item. Is it outside? Yes, it is. It is found outside or around your house? Yes, it is. Would you use it on your house? No, you wouldn't. Is it bright orange? No. Can it be made out of wood? No. Can you hang something on it? Yes, sure. Is it found in your car? It is not found in your car. It is also not sports equipment.

Can you find this outside most Kiwi households? No. Would you have to look up to see it? No, you wouldn't have to look up to see it. Can it be attached to a vehicle? No, it cannot be attached to a vehicle. All that in mind, four questions remaining. Let's play 20 questions.

Maddie, good morning. Good morning. All right, so with all that in mind, we need for you a yes-no question. Okay, does it have writing on it? Ooh. Are we going to have to deliberate again? Yeah. We're just going to go to the deliberation.

Wait there, Maddie. Wait there, Maddie. I don't want to get told off again. The answer is yes. Maddie? Maddie, the answer is yes. Okay. Is it a street sign? No.

It's not a street sign. Thank you. Thank you, Maddie. All right, well, we'll be back again. We're going to take two at eight o'clock. It's really stressful knowing the answer. I thought someone was really going to guess it after I got told off yesterday. Rightfully so, you got told off yesterday too.

You'll be told off again. So after 8 o'clock, get up to date with all those clothes and after 8 o'clock we'll take two callers with two more questions. One. Caitlin's saying one. Are we going to do one after 8 o'clock? We've got four. We've got three.

So we've got two for Monday. Either way, we're just going to get a one for Mundy. Two for Mundy. Caitlin's getting so angry. Why are you so angry, Caitlin? Because we talked about this and I talked you through it like six times. Either we're just doing one for Mundy. Why?

To build the ultimate tension. Vaughn was on his phone. Do you remember that, Maddie? Also, you're the one that said two at eight o'clock as well. And I told you this morning that there was one. Stop messing up our plan for every... Oh, my God. Do what you want.

I don't care. I'm going home. I'm going home. You can't go home, Caitlin. Because we need you for the show. I know you do. So bloody listen to me. I listen.

Thank you, Megan. You just don't say anything. You weren't listening, but you just didn't say. No, I was listening. She said there's only one at 8 o'clock, Vaughn. But if we'd started that with, and Megan, how many questions at 8 o'clock? One. Nonsense.

I sure hope this pre-recorded laughing isn't after something inappropriate to laugh at, but I just want to take a moment to say thanks to Spark for sponsoring the Fletch, Vaughn and Megan podcast. You can grab Spark's $29 prepaid rollover packs and get stacks of extra value. Back to the podcast. My study has been done looking into relationships, and there is a couple of really standout points that have come from this, that dating is really expensive,

much more than it used to be back in the day. Yeah, obviously you think about like, even just renting stuff is so crazy. Yeah. And so all your spare money, if you're going on one or two dates a week, that's going to add up. So one of the people who actually ran the study,

self-confessed baby boomer, said much more expensive these days you still just go out and play mini golf or eat fast food or ride around in someone's car, meet up at the park and drink some beer. Dating is way more expensive these days. So from that

the study has also found that 21% of millennials think they need to reach a certain income level or have like a certain amount of money to start dating before they even want to like get into the dating scene, before they even want to meet someone. Do you think because they don't want to be seen as not successful or they just can't afford to date?

Well, I don't know. Or both. Then another stat is 22% of singles say a potential partner's financial situation has held them back from pursuing a relationship with them. So does that mean if they're not like, well, like got enough money, you don't want to be in a relationship? Surely not. Well, yeah, I wouldn't have thought so. But yeah, it's saying that it is.

Or if they're not like financially stable, then they don't want to be in a relationship with them. I've got no idea. Like a long-term relationship. That's kind of what that says. And also two-thirds of millennials, people in their 20s, still live at home. Not because they're lazy,

but because they're saving money so they can get their finances in order before they set out to long relationships and marriage. Well, this is into Narnia, but she's just literally yesterday moved out of home. Yep, it's happened. Moved into the studio love nest with the boyfriend.

Yep, yep. Tonight's the first night. Guys, I'll add at this point, this is the exact five minutes that my mum spends in the car. Good morning, Willa. Yes. I'm so thrilled that we're having this chat right now. It's your first night in the love nest,

and it's a Friday night, so you don't have to get up early tomorrow. You imagine how much more excited Dave and Willa are. You're finally out of their love nest. Get out of it. Tonight. Bow, bow, grace. Did you ever, were you, because you've been with your boyfriend a long time,

but did you ever take anyone home to the parents' house? Uh, no. Because if you're living at home, right? How many people, a third of millennials are living at home. Yeah, two thirds. Where do you go? Two thirds. Two thirds.

Do you just hope that the person you meet at the club or that you meet on Tinder or whatever isn't living at home? Because the chances of that are slim. Yeah. Aren't they? So what do you do? I never took anyone home to my parents. Didn't you?

No. No. Good Lord, no. What do you do in the morning? They've got to sneak out the door, don't they? Your parents are like, oh, would you like breakfast? Oh, my mum, I had when I was living in a caravan on the back lawn. Oh, so that's easier because they can sneak out of the caravan.

External dwelling, isn't it? Yeah. Easy to sneak into. Well, no, there was no sneaking because mum just knocked on the door with some washing the next morning and I opened it up and she was like, oh, hello, who are you? Oh, my into. Well, no, there was no sneaking because mum just knocked on the door with some washing the next morning and opened it up and she was like, oh, hello, who are you?

Oh my God. Oh my, she knew. She knew somebody. She was coming for a nosy. Yeah, she was totally coming for a nosy. Very much. And then she went back inside

and then dad came out a few minutes later for a look. Of course he did. Oh my God, Ian. So embarrassing. It was very interesting at least of what was going on. And he did that.

Your mum would have gone and been like There is a girl There is a girl in that caravan How did this happen Ian? How has he done this? I know And dad would have been like

I don't know How is he not And he did one of those As he was like Backing away He's like Oh I just sort of Pop my head in

Say hello I was like Oh yep And then as he was backing away He did that dad nod Where they go You know like Bottom lip out

Your bottom lip out your bottom lip out a bit like and then they nod a little bit proud of you son right on right on and I've never been

taken home to someone's parents but then I I like the idea of it because it just made mum uncomfortable and I'm like kind of thrive

on making my mum I have to face awkward situations I quite like it. Low level awkward. But I've been also taken home to somebody's parents house. See I wouldn't want to do that.

That would be too weird. Well I didn't know it was their parents house until there was a knock at the door the next morning and they asked if they were going with them to church. I was like Didn't you get a hint when you walked into the house that this wouldn't be somewhere that it...

You would be welcome. I wasn't, to be honest, looking to see if it had a China cabinet or family portraits on the wall. The real show of mum and dad live there. No, I never really thought about it. Well, two-thirds of millennials

are still living at home, so it must be happening. I would love to take some calls on, did you ever get taken home to someone's parents' house? Or did you take someone home to your parents' house? What happened? Surely there'd be some hilarious stories of people not knowing

it was the family home waking up, or maybe even having to sneak out or wait till the parents had gone. Or maybe the parents chased you out in the morning. There would have been some chasing. Okay, well, let's take some calls. 0800 DALES at M 9696. Did someone take you home to mum and dad's?

But a study's been done on dating, millennials dating, and two thirds of people in their 20s have admitted they still live at home. So we would like to know if anyone's ever taken you home to mum and dad's. Yes, because awkward in the morning. Like, how does it go the next morning? Or do you just have to leave before mum and dad wake up? Well, yeah.

But then have you ever gone home? I mean, maybe it's different because you live in the wops when you go home to your parents. But if I, like, say, go out drinking and you come home, even if it's, like, late, Mum will still be like, who did you come home last night? Or Mum makes the door open. Or they'll get up and be like. They'll get up and they'll be like.

Yep. Do you have a good night? Yeah, and you're just like, go to sleep. Like, why don't you just sleep and I'll be home. Don't worry. Like, it's weird. They never stop worrying. They never, they're weird, yeah.

Parents never stop worrying. So you weird. Parents never stop worrying. So you could never bring someone home. Also, on the millennial thing, a very vocal generation, if you know what I'm putting down here. No, I don't know what you mean. Instagram. They

aren't afraid to give you real, this is an experience, real time audio feedback of your performance. Right, okay. That's from the text messages coming in. Right. And so many people, for example, I stayed at my boyfriend's house. We did the deed.

Wasn't awkward in the morning. His family were lovely. It wasn't until the next time I stayed, they asked me if I could just keep it down this time. Went back to his mum's place. Never saw her but I heard them meet in the kitchen when he went to get us both a drink and he came back to tell me that

mum said I was loud and she could hear it from her room. Oh my I would be mortified. Went home with a guy to what turned out to be his family home. In the morning, I heard his mum describing me as quite loud like a peacock. Oh, my God. I don't know how peacocks sound.

Are they loud? The world's most annoying bird noise behind a crowing rooster. Okay. Meg, what happened? So I was seeing this guy for a couple of months. Yeah. And he takes me home to what I thought was just like his house because he never talked about his family before.

Yeah. And I walk in and there's like four kids, like about five different adults. And I'm just like, oh, who are these people? He goes, oh, this is my mum, my brother, my sister, my niece, my nephew, my cousin. And about 20 minutes later his ex walks in. What, and she lives there too?

As what? His ex lives there too. Yeah, and she like brings her partner and we're all just sitting in this one room. And I'm like... What? And I walk out to like... You know when you have a sleepover

with all your mates in school and it's just mattresses everywhere? Yeah, Mariah Styles. Chuck the mattresses down. Sleep on the ground. Yeah, I was just like, where's the cook breakfast? But no.

It was just awkward. I'm so confused. Oh, yeah. Wait, so did he have his own room, though? He had his own room, yeah. Right. It was a two-bedroom place, but one of the rooms was for the kids. And, like, they were up later than we were.

I would have just been like, let's go back to mine. It's just a lot less awkward. Or hire a juicy camper for the night. Exactly. Hey, Meg, thanks. You're cool. Matt, what happened? I had a good night out.

I took this person back to my place. And the only thing is, at the time, my auntie and her family were staying there. So I was moved to the lounge. So, yeah. So you took a house, what, like a blow-up mattress in the lounge, Matt? Yeah, yeah, yep, yep. Air bed in the lounge, yep. Matthew.

Matthew, Matthew. How, yep, all right. That's an admission of guilt. Yeah, all right, lots of text messages. I unknowingly went back to a guy's an admission of guilt. Yeah. All right. Lots of text messages. I unknowingly went back to a guy's nana's house. Oh, that's... What about Nana? It might be harder.

She walks in the next morning. I'm stark as about to get dressed. She was coming in to tell him that breakfast was ready and he was going to be late for work. Oh, thanks, Nan. Thanks, Nana. God, you give Nana a heart attack. Nana'd be like, I remember when mine looked like that.

Oh, my God. I just, it's like some of this is like horribly awkward. Christmas Eve, I had a sleepover at a girl's house. I walked out the next morning and they were like having Christmas breakfast with like hats and stuff on. You can't do Christmas even stay the night. I know.

You leave. You're there for Christmas morning. Bloody Santy Claus. Get out of there. Also, you're really going to ruin Santa's list because he would have thought you would have been

at your house. I know. But that's okay because your presents will be there when you do get home, get back there. I woke up in Sydney at a mansion by the beach.

I remember getting there and thinking, this is very nice. Never leave. But then it never occurred to me that it was the family home. I had to do the walk of shame past everybody in the morning. And then they stopped me for a chat and passed me a glass of fresh orange juice. Oh, okay, nice. And said, sounds like you need, sounded last night like you need a refreshment.

I don't know what she did that indicated that. So much awkwardness. So much, so much. Yeah. Maybe they could hear her screaming that she was parched. Yeah.

Or something. I'm so thirsty. Yep. Awkward. For it. So awkward. And big orange juice. Yep.

Am I a bad person? Well, it was this time yesterday we read out an email from a listener who needed some help with an upcoming vacation. So she had organised, I'm going to give everyone fake names, so this makes it easier. Claire had organised a girls' trip to Vegas for next year. It's her birthday. It's her birthday. It's her party.

Her sister, Laura, wanted her to invite her sister-in-law, Jane. Now, this is where we had the problem because she said, Jane, she wasn't sure if she would be able to afford it. They're all contributing into a savings pool. Yeah, monthly payments. Monthly payments. She also said she is a vegan and she's like that, so I'm okay with that.

But she manages to go to every single event that they organise and complain about it. Yeah. Complain about there being plastic, complain about there being nothing for her to eat. She likes to complain a lot. Now she said she is exhausting to be around and I don't want to invite her to Vegas. She kind of felt she had to. Yeah, her sister had put it on her. So we asked, is she a bad person?

One of the most overwhelming results, I think there was one person that was like... She's a bad person, but also don't invite Jane. Yeah. So I don't think anybody wanted Jane to come. Well, we have, after that yesterday, received a follow-up, because I demanded we have a follow-up

after such an overwhelming response. Well, you got it. Fake name Claire has responded. Hi, guys. Thank you so much for featuring my story. Thank goodness for the podcast. She listened to it afterward. The response from you guys and from the audience made my day.

It made me feel so much better. This was really stressing me out and I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. Jane, the hard-to-be-around person, knows about the trip, as do most of the close friends and family I have. It's not a secret trip or anything like that. From there, Jane and my sister's conversations, Laura, her sister, concluded that Jane may want to join us on the trip because she keeps asking leading questions about the cost of the trip and our Vegas itinerary.

Right. Anyway, we took our vote in our Vegas WhatsApp group and it was a resounding no from the five other ladies too, so we shall not be extending an invite to Jane. Yes. Laura is going to break the news if Jane ever brings the topic up. Thanks again.

So Jane will not be going to Vegas. Jane sounds like the kind of person who might just book it on a whim. And then tell them afterwards, oh my god guys, I'm joining too. I'm coming too. Surprise. No, you are not. Surprise, I'm joining. Well that's great, so it's good that

you know, we've helped there. We've managed to help out. And I kind of hope that Jane got like, maybe just a wee update, you know, like an insight. Yeah. A hint into her personality and maybe just like be a bit nicer. Somebody messaged me saying,

Jane sounds like the sort of person that would hear this and not identify herself as Jane. Yeah. And be like, oh my God, this Jane sounds like a real handful. I know. All right. Next on the show, we've got a special moment. A very...

Fletcher's got a little treat for us. Special. Yes, I do have a treat for you. Is it time? For the special treat? Sure it is. Yeah. After the break, I think there might be some tears, actually.

From you? No, I can't. I just think there'll be tears. Okay. Okay. It's a special... Don't go anywhere just think there'll be tears. Okay. Okay. It's a special. Don't go anywhere. A very special moment.

Next. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. The podcast. Next on the show, we have a very special moment for one of our own. Producer Caitlin is having a birthday on Sunday. This is the first she's heard. Did you think we'd forgotten? What's happening?

Oh, we'll see. Oh, no. You know that when you have a birthday over the weekend, you don't get away with it on this show. Just like Fletcher's birthday was over the weekend. But his was happening. Okay, so you need to come into the studio because next we've got something special for you from all of us

A present? A present Come on We're going to come back next, producer Caitlin And I said Do you remember before I said there could be tears? Oh no, what's happening? There could be tears next

I'm scared Alec Benjamin on ZM. Let me down slowly. Fletch Warner, Megan. It is seven minutes away from eight. Now, this Sunday, producer Caitlin. Why is everyone coming to the producer's booth, Caitlin? This Sunday, producer Caitlin turns.

29. 29. Is it 29? Yeah. You don't look 29. Are you actually kidding? I know. I'm 30.

I thought you were 27 Two years ago. Oh, yeah, okay, cuz I just in my head. I was like this I know I'm 30 next year guys. Oh, hey, but you Are boyfriend Just kidding. But you've got... A boyfriend. Yay! Phew. That was so brilliant. I know because I know that you were worried about being 27 and not having a boyfriend. Yeah. Wait, now, you arrived to work this morning.

You got the flowers that we all pitched in for from Megan. Well, I know they were from Megan and Anna, from the gals. I tried. I tried to get us to have them on that board. Well, yeah, I would have never have wrapped flowers in orange. So you know they're not from me. Um, that is chic. We don't know what you'd wrap flowers in because we've never received flowers in orange, so you know they're not from me. Um, that is chic. We don't know what you'd wrap flowers in,

because we've never received any from you. Wine, because I'm classy. Okay. You are classy. So my wife saw a receipt for flowers, like, in the online banking, and then she was empty-handed. She'd be like, what's going on? That's why I don't buy flowers.

For anyone. Did love actually teach us nothing? Snape needed to leave no trail. So your birthday's on Sunday, but we're not obviously doing a show on Sunday. So we thought we'd have to give you your present now. Oh, guys. Is there someone? Is there?

No, there's not. We couldn't get strippers in because you have a boyfriend. I have a boyfriend. Sorry, I forget. For those that maybe don't know, you didn't have a boyfriend for a while and it was an issue. Yeah. And then you got one and you were like,

I've got to tell everyone. But we don't know much about him, do we, your boyfriend? What's he like? He likes to keep it on the downline. We don't say his name. And if I was him, I would too. We don't say his name. Yeah.

So out of respect, we've never mentioned his name. And we don't talk about him too much. We've never given away any details. Yeah. So, I mean, if we were to have him on here, we'd also have to disguise his voice, wouldn't we? Yes. Because we don't want to give away who Caitlin's boyfriend is.

Both. No. But also, he doesn't want to do a live radio appearance. No. So, for your birthday, we've got you a cute little message. No. This is, oh my God. From your boyfriend.

Are you ready to hear it? I don't want to. You can just turn and face the cameras, please. I don't want to. No. Okay, here we go. Are you ready? No. This is here we go. You ready? No.

This is your birthday present. Happy birthday, beautiful. Mean you're the best thing that's happened to me. Oh, my God. Love you. The last nine months have been absolutely amazing. You're the most genuine, caring person I've ever met. And I love that about you.

Love you. The fact that you spend so much of your time giving and helping other people makes me want to be a better person. I know we argue about who's the funniest a lot because I know you, but I've done a bit of research and I guess you actually are the funniest. But just. And you are the most beautiful in the world. Even though I've picked up some terrible words like oolala, literally and sheik, which has become my vocabulary, I feel so lucky to have you in my life. I can't wait for a weekend away together.

The chair bro. Chair bro of Air All Blacks. Steve Hansen, Mike Jones, you know, Captain, you know, they're all there. So I'm just one little piece of the puzzle there. Were you all in the same room?

Or was it shot at different times? Yeah, no, yeah, we were. Oh, okay, right. Yeah. Okay, that's a really powerful table. It was awesome. Is that going to be, because do you like watching your movies and stuff that you're in? No, I don't.

So what about when you're on the plane? Where are you going to look? No. Yeah, no. I'm going to be very unsafe. They'll be like, sir, please open your eyes and take your fingers out of your ears. This is a safety video you need to watch. La, la, la, la, la, la.

In this movie, you get to punch the rock in the face. Are we allowed to say that? Yeah, apparently we've cleared it. Spoiler alert. Spoiler alert. Punch the rock in the face. Oh, are we allowed to say that? Yeah, apparently we've cleared it. We've cleared it with the movie people. Spoiler alert. Well, you know, no one gets to punch Dwayne Johnson in the face unless he allows you to do so. But it's a part of the story.

You know, we're two brothers. We're estranged. He's been gone for 25 years. He hasn't even come home to see his own mother, and I'm upset with him. And now he turns up. The world's falling apart. It's the end of the world, and he wants my help.

Bro, there's only one way you're going to get any. Yeah, so that's the setup. You can punch him right in the face. Have you worked with him before? No, I met him a couple of times. You know, I was working with Arnold Schwarzenegger about, I don't know, a while ago and I went to dinner with him and DJ was there and Arnold was getting into politics and DJ was getting out of wrestling into movies.

So kind of Arnold was handing the mantle over to DJ. Wow. So yeah, it's been amazing to see his meteoric rise. He's like such a hardworking man. And a nice guy? Super nice guy. Like a really nice guy, like unusually nice. You sort of think, something's got to be wrong with this guy.

Something, give me something, please. You're a beautiful, successful man. I just want something to be wrong with you. Yeah, like his mum was on set. He's been working with the same team since he started, like his producing team. It's like this guy's perfect. He's like there's not, you know, it's like he's just – it happens.

It's just like there's freaks of nature that are incredibly bad, horrible people. He's just a really good guy, really nice, solid, grounded. He's the opposite of – I suppose you're right though. If there's really good guy. Really nice, solid, grounded. He's the opposite of real. I suppose you're right though. If there's really bad people. If it's possible to get really bad people, once in a while you get exceptionally good people

and I just feel like he's one of those. He's one of those guys. Yeah. Why not? So I've been to Samoa. I love it. That features in the movie but a little bit in disguise. We shot in Kauai in Hawaii

yeah right no disguise we're not apologising it's Hollywood you gotta take it with a grain of popcorn otherwise you're not gonna have fun

yeah because I wonder if any Samoans are gonna say and be like our roads aren't that wide no they're gonna get this mixed feeling

like I'm so proud we're going to Samoa what island is that where are our buses the famous Samoa buses no we had a bus there's a bus that was in there, but it looked like it was from,

anyway, it doesn't matter. But, you know, but well done. You picked up on that. Yeah. You get a chocolate fish. I get a point. Yes, okay, great.

Chocolate fish. Do you miss like Kiwi things? Could you give him a chocolate fish because I haven't had one yet. Do you miss those kind of things when you're overseas? Chocolate fish, anything that you miss

when you go, when you're living overseas? Oh, well, nowadays, it's really great like tykes is over there chelsea's over there keisha's over there and it's been there for years so nowadays it's like last time i was there tim was there tim's over there right now so yeah you know we don't yeah no it's all good man we're colonizing that place it's good but it's no longer ho, it's Horrywood. I would like to see the letter change on the hill. Horry. Horrywood.

That would be a working day at the weekend. Yeah, not a problem. New Zealanders get stuck in. Get the trailer in the night at 10. Well, you know, Tim Weta is Aquadad, right? With Jason Momoa. Yeah. He's into the haka.

It's all go. It's happening. Have we kind of adopted Jason Momoa? Of course we have. Yeah, we've taken him. Come on, man. Look at that. Another specimen. It's happening. Have we kind of adopted Jason Momoa? Of course we have. Yeah, we've taken him. Come on, man. Look at that. Another specimen.

Yeah, yeah. You have to be secure to roll around with these dudes. You know you've got to be secure in your manhood because it's like these guys are specimens. Do you agree? Yeah, well, you were in the scene with Jason Statham as well and Idris Elba who... Come on, man.

That's like... Yeah, like Idris Elba, like Jason Statham as well and Idris Elba who Come on man. That's like Yeah like Idris Elba like Jason Statham like that brother he holds his own right? Yeah. Like it's like the stature of the man

versus the rock I mean he's huge but Jason Statham is right there much respect there Mr. Statham. Yeah. He's good.

And he's a nice guy as well? Yeah. Damn it. Damn it. One of them's gotta be a bad man. Yeah but if they were Damn it, damn it. One of them's got to be a bad man. Yeah, but if they were, I couldn't say it. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Contractually, if they were, I couldn't say it. I'd have to say yes. What else are you working on at the moment? Because if I did say it, then I'd be a dick. Right, yeah. Did I say that? No. Yeah, you'd be in.

What else are you working on at the moment? Herbs. Yeah. Feature documentary. Yeah, sure. Coming up 3rd of August. Te Ara Pukahi, Rekurukai. They did Pōie

and I'm an executive producer on that feature film with them. So I'm really proud of that. So for me, it's a balancing out, like doing big Hollywood stuff, which is great, pays the bills. I love, I've learned over the years to sort of realise that I can be myself and be in Hollywood and it's all good.

But I balance it out by keeping my hand in as a producer here and helping develop local content that can only tell stories that come from here that no one else would care about except for us so herbs herbs is a great and that comes out so keep an eye out for that herbs do you know who they are the band yeah yeah what's your favorite herb song well i know i know slice of heaven awesome all of these are dominant. I don't know any. Sensitive to a smile is mine. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What about Long Ago?

It's so long ago. You don't know that song? Yeah, it's a New Zealand anthem. Yeah, come on. That's Herbs. Yeah, yeah. Right. That is your favourite Herbs song and you didn't even know it.

See, that's why you need to see the documentary. That's why we need to make these things because otherwise you won't even know who you are. I just sing the song when it comes on and I don't know how I'm singing. So you don't even know who you are, do you? No. Well, apparently not. You have to watch the documentary. See, that's why.

No, seriously, that's why I want to make these stories about us because if we don't, we'll be having people in Hollywood tell us who we are. And that's great. But as you said, that wasn't Samoa. Right. Yeah. It's a universal interpretation of Samoa right yeah it's a universal interpretation of Samoa

for entertainment's sake and that's all good but we need to keep it real as well so we can have both awesome well Hobbs and Shaw is in cinemas now

I'm imagining like every other Fast and the Furious movie it'll do very well I think it's going to do extremely well I'm a bit of a fan yeah

awesome thanks for coming in and sort of like that's how we sort of like, that's how we sort of say it in a self-deprecating. That's our version of what America's got. It's awesome, dude. Yeah, we're like, it'll do all right.

I think it's pretty good. I like it. What do you think? Yeah, pretty good. Cliff Curtis, thank you so much. Okay, thanks guys. Fact of the day, day. Okay, thanks, guys. Today's fact of the day, I actually found this at Kentucky.com. Kentucky.

Kentucky. Kentucky.com. Okay. So, hold on. Let me just check if this is the Kentucky people. I assume this is the travel people, right? Yeah. Kentucky.com Okay So Hold on Let me just check If this is the Kentucky people I assume this is the The travel people Right?

Yeah Kentucky.com Who else would own Kentucky.com Anyway It's about If you're travelling Especially in Europe

So many cultures So many countries All close together And Wait Are you trying to get A free Kentucky? No I'm too old

You're too old now Oh wait Plus you wouldn't want to go On holiday with that many people No Wait, are you trying to get a freaking tiki? No, I'm too old. You're too old now. Oh, wait. Plus, you wouldn't want to go on holiday with that many people. No. No, you'd hate it. No, it would be too many people for me. That's just my personal thoughts on the matter.

Yeah. But it's about body language and non-spoken things that could get you in trouble in different cultures. That's cool. Because, and this was today's fact of the day, is in Sweden you agree with someone in conversation by making a sharp sucking in noise. What are you doing? You're slurping.

You're slurping. Don't get your tongue out of it. Don't go, don't go. Go, like that. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, okay, I don't like that. Maybe this is why you can't whistle.

You've got poor control of your tongue. Oh, try a whistle. No, you're blowing too hard. Use your tongue. Where is your tongue in all this? It's in my mouth. It's a bing lazy. What do you think it is?

It's got a roll when you whistle. Oh, now my lips are all tingly. I don't like it. Your tongue's got to tuck in. No, we're back to sucking in because we agree with it. So in the middle of a conversation, rather than interrupting and saying, oh, yeah, no, you're totally right, you let them get their conversational flow on.

And nodding is like nodding still means nodding, but it's a Swedish and Norwegian. Calories don't count on a Friday. It's definitely a moccaccino day. That's weird. So rather than me saying, oh yeah, I totally agree because it's Friday, they don't count. Yeah. I just go, no, you don't go. Because that sounds like you've

already got your mochaccino and you're taking a slurp it's just as sharp like that yeah i guess i don't know i'm not norwegian am i but i when i was in norway i didn't notice him doing this but then i didn't really locals did you have a casual chat not really many because i mean you'd go to like a touristy thing and they'd talk at you, but they never were like, yeah, you'd never talk. Yeah, I'd agree. They'd be like, get on the husky seat. Did people in the group, anyone go? I didn't notice.

But see, now if I went back, I would be looking for it. Like in conversations. Because that's quite fascinating. So some other ones that I came across. In Bulgaria, nodding your head means no. What? Like nodding it up and down. Like, yep, I agree.

But that's like a no. But then what's the yes? Is that side to side? Yes in Bulgaria is to go side to side. Well, that's not. And that means no. The entire world's doing the opposite thing. No.

Greece, Iran, Lebanon, Turkey, and Egypt all follow the yes is no, no is yes. It's still an overriding majority of the world. That's really confusing. Change your culture to suit my culture. In Cyprus, waving goodbye to somebody means on your face. Like if you're like, bye, nonny. Wait, do you mean on your face? Or on your face?

Oh, right, okay. Not spit on your face. Okay. Rhyme or spit? Yeah, poo emoji on your face. Okay. So you could be like, bye. Bye, nonny.

Nonny's like. How dare you? Wow, I never knew that. Okay. When you're driving along, that's like a rude gesture. Like if someone cuts you off. You wave to somebody doing that. I never knew that. Okay. When you're driving along, that's like a rude gesture. Like if someone cuts you off. You wave to somebody doing that. I want it on your face.

Okay, yeah, that's horrible. And in Georgia, mama means father and papa means mother. Oh, that's just silly. That's backwards, right? Yeah. Yeah. What would be, would there be any like Kiwi ones? Do people do thumbs up

All over the world Well when we say sweet as Everyone's confused by that What is What Is a sweet as True Sweet as

Is a direct comparison To something Yeah At least we're not Australian Yeah but But what I saw her the other week But

But what My sister in law's Australian She does that Yeah Chronically Do you always say But what My eyes light up like My sister in Australia, she does that. Yeah. Do you always say, but what? My eyes light up like. Because but generally is also the start of something juicy.

Yeah. That's where the conversation starts getting interesting. Predictable statement, but. And you're like. Yeah. And I can't even help it. My eyes just go, go on. Basically, go on. So today's fact of the day, we've learned a little bit about different body gestures

and language from different parts of the world. But today's main fact of the day is in Sweden and Norway, if you agree with someone while in a conversation rather than interrupting them, you just go, no. No. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Fletch, Vaughan and Megan, the podcast, ZM. Went to an event yesterday, me and my husband.

Mr. Toyboy. Mr. Toyboy. It's weird when I call him that though. I don't want my husband. Mr. Toyboy. Mr. Toyboy. It's weird when I call him that though. I don't want to call him Mr. Toyboy. People don't know who you mean when you say husband. Not at all. Toyboy. My husband is Andrew.

Mr. Toyboy. Even when you say Andrew, I'm like, who? Oh, Mr. Toyboy. Also, you've got to use his name because he doesn't like it when people go into the cafe and call him Mr. Toyboy. He doesn't like it. It's great for business. Don't do it.

It's great. It is. It's a unique selling point. It's a unique selling point. Yeah, okay. The girls can go, let's go to that cafe with Mr. Toyboy. Yeah, and then the older gals that'll be hanging around will be like, what's this you're talking about?

And then they'll say, there's a cafe with a Toyboy running it. And they said, I've heard the jingle. I've heard the jingle, yeah. So anyway, my husband and I went to the 40th anniversary of Michael Hill Jewelry last night. Oh, okay. Congratulations. Now, is it 40 years since he started his jewellery out later

or is it 40 years since he put his first ad in the Yellow Pages? What's the difference? That was just a weird reference to a Yellow Pages advertising campaign that was like 10 years ago. I apologize. As I was saying it, I was like, I don't even think anybody will remember this. Michael Hill jeweler. That's what he said. I remember growing up.

I was a small jeweler. I lost everything in a fire. I remember growing up, he'd always have ads on TV like, Michael Hill jeweler. And now they're all like flashy ads like, Michael, hell, Jola. Yeah, they're all flashy now. So last night, he was there. I didn't expect him to be there. I've never met him, but he's like famous.

I've always seen him on TV. Boy, he'd have heaps of money too, be real rich. Remember that ugly super yacht he got? Yeah, and we spoke about that on air. I was like, I hope he doesn't listen to the show. And he's got a $3 million Stradivarius violin. Yeah. Or he's got that fancy golf course in that lovely place in Queensland.

So all of this I learnt last night. You talked about it. His fire, his house burning down. There was everything he had. It burnt down. It was after that that he put in the yellow pages. Yeah. Are you on commission for the yellow pages?

I think phone books on a whole of bloody terrible ideas now who would you ever use one hello google and he said that he wanted to be a violinist but then like didn't he got into jewelry jewelry um he did that michael hill jeweler talk to him so this is the thing like growing up i saw him on tv And like we all know Michael Hill Jewellery Yeah But when he was there I was like Oh my god

I'm a little bit like Starstruck Like Michael Hill In the flesh You've met like I know but like Who did you meet With Khloe Kardashian

You met a Kardashian Oh yeah And I lost my Lost my mind at that too Yeah But like We met a lot of Well known people

And But you were losing it Over Michael Hill Yeah but he's been like Famous since I was little I wasn't mind at that too. Yeah. But like, we met a lot of well-known people. But you were losing it over Michael Hill. Yeah, but he's been like famous since I was little. Yeah, right. And he was in the flesh. And it's not like, when people get born in here, it's different because we're in the studio. But in the wild, it would be different. Yeah. Yeah, okay, true.

And I was in his zone. So yeah, I didn't expect him to be there. And I don't know whether it's because he's South African and he didn't grow up here or whether he's just got like no sense of shame. But Andrew was like, let's go talk to him. South Africans are like super bold and they just say what they think.

Yeah. And it can come across as really brash, but a lot of the time it doesn't come from a bad place. It just comes from that's the culture. Yeah. You just say what you think and do what you would do. But I was like, no, no. I said literally, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Put the handbrake. No, I don't want to. I don't know what to say. I have nothing to say to Michael

Hill. I don't know how I'm even going to start that conversation. But good move from Mr. Toyboy because as we previously mentioned, he's got a super yacht. He's got an expensive island. He's got a lovely house. Get in there, Mr. Toyboy. as we previously mentioned, he's got a super yacht, he's got an expensive violin, he's got a lovely house. Get in there, Mr. Toyboy. Andrew can sniff the money. Yeah. And I was like, no, no, no, no. Literally

I hear him say, hi, nice to meet you. My name's Andrew. I was like, and Michael goes, Michael Hill, Jula. And Andrew goes, Andrew Pappas, Toyboy. And I literally said, Michael, nice to meet you. Megan Sellers, talker on the radio. And I literally said, Michael, nice to meet you. Megan Sellers, talker on the radio.

And I introduced myself. I said, hi, I'm Megan. I was so close. Yeah. So close to him. But it would be one of those weird people, like what would you have to talk to him about? I know.

I just kept thinking about how rich he was in the super yacht and he owns all of this jewellery technically until you buy it off him. And Andy P's just like what's up Michael? He was like congratulations on 40 years of business. I was like what are you doing?

What are you doing? What are you doing? And I didn't have anything to say and that's when Michael Hill, jeweller looks at me and says, you look very nice. Both of you. You're a very, very well-dressed couple. And I was like, bleh, dead.

I'm out. He slapped a special sticker on you and put you in the display case. No, I couldn't tell you what happened after that because I was like, blacked out. The rest of the conversation was a blur. I couldn't imagine your wife doing that, Vaughn. We've got an agreement. We don't talk to people.

That's what makes our marriage so successful. We don't talk to people. We don't make adult friends. We're done. We're an island. We are done. No more room at the island for any more people. She tried to make an adult.

She got boozed at a wedding and started making adult friends. And I looked at a friend of ours that was also there, and I said, Ashley, I don't think we made adult friends. And she's like, I thought we also had this strict agreement with no more adult friends. I don't know what's going on here. No adult friends. She needs a wine.

Well, now Megan's made friends with Michael, who I'm sure we can use the place for a Queenstown weekend. When I get invited onto a super yacht, you're not coming. I can't have him know that I'm friends with Riff Raff, because I don't think he listens to the show, so he might have a high opinion of me. I don't think he'd call us well-dressed or best-dressed at all. It's a very casual approach.
