Starting point is 00:00:00 ZM. Head music lives here. Fletch, Fawn and Megan, the podcast. Thanks, Anya. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Fawn and Megan. Good morning. Good morning. You've got a sore neck. Yeah, so even before I got out of bed this morning, I stretched. And it sounded like, you know, when you pull that end bit off a bit of chicken. You know when you eat a drumstick? And then there's that little gristly bit on the end and you're like, pull that off.
Starting point is 00:00:30 Because the dog can eat that, but it can't eat the bun. That's the sound that it made when I did it and I felt it. And yeah, now it's... Now you're a bit like, oh, right. Now it's real. Like, I can turn that way, but watch. Can't look that way.
Starting point is 00:00:43 It's all downhill, isn't it? Got that old mate thing where you have to turn your whole body. You've reached 40 and it's all downhill. I haven't reached 40 yet. I've seen 40 in the distance, but I haven't reached it yet. I'm like, how far away is that? It's a while away. Blink and then you're there.
Starting point is 00:01:02 I'll be right. Deep heat? Yeah,, bit of, yeah, bit of, yeah, bit of that. Deep hate. But what's the stuff that smells like smoke bombs?
Starting point is 00:01:12 Liniment? Remember liniment? Oh, yeah, like it smells like the right. I think it means arnica. Arnica? No,
Starting point is 00:01:18 arnica's to stop bruising if you've had a hickey, if you've had a rough, if you've had someone sucking on your neck. Yeah, arnica reduces bruising. So yeah,
Starting point is 00:01:24 Fletch, you're writing that down. Why are you writing that down? You want to get the little purple pottle. You want to get the little purple pottle. Right. Okay. Yeah, that bit of toothpaste, that'll stop your hickeys popping up. Alright, you lot, listen up. It's Storytime.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Alright, Storytime. I've got three news headlines for three stories that I've found online. Interesting, unusual, odd, quirky news stories. Morn and Megan, just pick one of the following three headlines. Headline one, judge refuses to let couple humiliate their child for life. Oh, that's a name situation there. It is. The judge has stopped the name. Headline two, yabba dabba don't.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Okay. And headline three, police warning over icy inflatable swan lake. So, icy inflatable, are people hurting on the icy lake and their inflatable swans? Across them because they would slide.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Yeah, close. They would run and slide on them, right? Yeah, but don't. Oh, no, you just broke your coffee cup. That was loose. That's happened to me before. I don't think those cups are meant to last longer than six months. It was a little bit jiggly.
Starting point is 00:02:37 The coffee, the company coffee cup. Yeah, the company coffee cups are cheap. I think we got them from Ali. The handle just clean broke off. They feel Ali Express. Do you know there's always a really good day here at work? They decide the last ones have reached a point of total scumminess. Because when you're stirring your coffee, it eventually takes the...
Starting point is 00:02:56 Scratches the inside. Scratches the inside of the cup. Yeah. Then that happens and they start going a bit rubbish. Yeah. They have like a release day of all the new cups. Oh, it's so good. Oh, it's a good day.
Starting point is 00:03:07 It's a good day. The little things. I've got puppies on my cup today. Oh, yeah, I've used that puppy cup before. That's a pretty good cup. That'll get you going right for the day. I think I have my favourite DJ, Khaled. Where did that go?
Starting point is 00:03:17 I don't know. You've got to hide your favourite other cup. No, I think someone took it home because it was a great mug. It was a good mug, yeah. They need another one. Good from you. Good from you. Because it wasn't just that.
Starting point is 00:03:33 It wasn't because he was on it that made it good. It was just a good cup, right? It was a good cup and that he was on it. Oh, you like that he was on it. I just like the fact it was a good cup. Right. Okay. What are we doing?
Starting point is 00:03:45 Yabba Dabba Don't. So that's a Flintstones reference. Do you get that? Anya. Oh, she's in this other studio. Because we occasionally... Don't make me feel old. What is she doing?
Starting point is 00:03:55 Just to bring you up to date, the millennial of the show is sitting in the massage chair. Hang on. Can I message her on this? Excuse me? Why are you in a massage chair? We're doing a show here. Get out of here because we need to talk. Caitlin's got a sore back, I've got a sore neck, and you're
Starting point is 00:04:14 just relaxing in a massage chair. In the other studio. What are you doing? You're doing nothing for millennials, babes. You were doing nothing. What are you doing to the massage chair? Oh, I can't hear you. Sorry, we've got a millennial in there and a bloody Gen Xer
Starting point is 00:04:30 that doesn't know how to push bars in here. It's a bad combo. I was just having some me time. This is work. You do me time before you come to work and after. I don't have time before work. Sometimes people do me time at work, but they don't do the massage chair. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Christ. Now, do you get a reference? Do you get yabba-dabba-don't? Do you know what that means? No. Do you know what yabba-dabba-do is from? Yabba-dabba-do. That bulky guy.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Old school. Oh, I watched it as a kid, but I can't think of the name. This was both here. Oh, he's quite voluptuous. Are you referring to the movie or the cartoon? The cartoon. Right. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:05:18 That makes me feel better. It's a cartoon. With the car. The old school car with the chunky wheels. Oh, God, this is going to drive me insane. Voluptuous guy. Well, you know, the voluptuous guy with the hair and the old school car with the chunky wheels. Oh, God, this is going to drive me insane. Voluptuous guy. Well, you know, the voluptuous guy with the hair and the old school car. Grease?
Starting point is 00:05:31 How would you describe Scooby-Doo? Oh, the dog. No. Yeah. Guys, I need to go back to my May time. This is so much too early. Scooby-Doo, the guy with the floppy hair. Flintstones.
Starting point is 00:05:48 The Flintstones. There we go. There you go. But there was no correlation between those two, was there? No, no, we were just talking about old school cartoons. Oh, okay. You can go back to your massage chair. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:05:58 You've been absolutely no help at all. It's always good to check if she knows who we're talking about before we go too deep into it. So, yabba-dabba-don't. We going with that one? We are, yes. We've just decided. We go now to the town of Hillsborough.
Starting point is 00:06:13 This is in the Bay Area in California. Yeah. A unique home. Megan's yawning. I just have a me time. Flesh doesn't know how to push the buttons I answered you mid yawn I'm sorry
Starting point is 00:06:29 You've got gristly shoulder I've got a bloody ruined neck Who could be bothered working this week I guess it's just a feel Well anyway It might be a bit lost on radio But there is actually a Flintstones house That somebody built a long time ago
Starting point is 00:06:44 Go on. Oh, my God. It's in the hills of Hillsborough. Yeah. And it's actually at the centre of some stoush at the moment because since it was purchased last year, the property, which does feature large towering dinosaurs, can be seen from the interstate highway.
Starting point is 00:07:05 But there has been a lawsuit filed this week that because the landscaping improvements create a highly visible eyesore, they are out of keeping with the community standards and the decision and order require they be removed. So the neighbours think it looks ugly. So when they built it, it wasn't an eyesore. Well, because it was hiding behind the trees.
Starting point is 00:07:26 So they've cut the trees. They've just got some snobby neighbours in there now. And they're like, eh. But how cool does it look? It's like Play-Doh buildings. It looks like the Flintstone house. Someone paid so much money for that. I know.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Like to make it look like that. Apparently there weren't permission. There wasn't permission sought to erect the dinosaurs Do you remember when that person I always like to get permission from a dinosaur before I erect it Do you remember that person bought an old Air New Zealand plane Those little wee ones and tried to put it in their backyard Do you remember that?
Starting point is 00:07:57 Like last year? No What like a DC3 or something? No it was like one of those little The real tiny ones you used to go on Oh And they craned it into their backyard
Starting point is 00:08:05 and then everyone was like, can you just do that? Like, we've got to look at that. Can you just, can you just put that in your inner city backyard? I don't think that's it. Can you just do that?
Starting point is 00:08:15 It's not a pool, is it? A plane? No, no. Odd looking. Anyway, well, that's ongoing. Oh, I thought it was going to be a problem
Starting point is 00:08:22 that Hanna-Barbera had said that they were breaching trademark. No. Well, they've been fined $200, but the next step is cordon and all of that. So that's just, I guess, a little heads up if you do plan on putting dinosaurs in your backyard. Bedrock bottom. Do you get that, Anya? No.
Starting point is 00:08:42 She's back in the bloody chair. FEM. Well, it's nine years old today. Yep, yep. Since Australian TV show Our Current Affair, which is like their seven o'clock current affair show after the news, interviewed a man called Ray and his wife because they were having problems with dogs. You'll be very familiar with Ray.
Starting point is 00:09:05 This is a little reminder. Now, yesterday morning, I came out into the front yard and the dogs were across the boat. And as soon as they saw me, they came bounding over. Ah! Ah! Ah! And I just made it into the front door in time.
Starting point is 00:09:22 He's really committed to it. And his wife's like, she got a fright when he first cracked into it. But then at the end looked at him just like, not again. It's a great club. I can't believe that's nine years old. Nine years later,
Starting point is 00:09:38 Australian A Current Affair. Australian A Current Affair. That didn't sound right, did it? Australian A Current Affair. Australian A Current Affair. The Australian TV show A Current Affair. Australian current affair that didn't sound right Australian current affair the Australian TV show a current affair caught up with Ray had a little bit of a chat
Starting point is 00:09:51 and asked him if he still had it so have you still got it give us your best barking dog well I like to think that I've still got it let's see
Starting point is 00:10:00 okay you're a classic thank you so much Ray Okay. You're a classic. Thank you so much, Ray. You're a classic. You crazy old fool. Not quite as good as we thought it would be nine years later. Probably not worth the final closing segment of the show,
Starting point is 00:10:19 but thanks, Ray. To be fair, nine years later, he looks like he hasn't aged a day. No, he looks as rabid as ever. day. No, he looks rabid as ever. Yes. He looks rabid and as crazy as ever. F.M. So to NZ, they are the Computer Emergency Response Team. They have issued an alert, kind of, for cyber attacks and cyber scams after the Christchurch tragedy.
Starting point is 00:10:42 So these are three things you have to look out for. And the first is taking advantage of people wanting to give money. after the Christchurch tragedy. So these are three things you have to look out for. And the first is taking advantage of people wanting to give money. So phishing emails, they contain links to fake online banking logins. Because it was at Westpac that came out and said, look, there's a fake one using our logos and bank images. So it says, yeah, the emails contain fraudulent bank accounts. They will show images that look like it's from the bank. And it says you can make a donation here for the Christchurch tragedy.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Just if you're going to do that, they say go to one of the official online fundraising efforts. So the Give a Little page is the launch good page. There's a few. There's a crowdfunded one. Just make sure you're going to one of those. There is malicious video files that are being shared around on websites or social media. These video files contain footage related to the attack. I would say don't look at it anyway. But, and it is a malicious file. So it's got viruses in this file. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Like malicious malware that will attack your computers. Then there is... You shouldn't be sending, that's also a criminal offence to distribute, receive... But are they meaning like... I'm not sure. People that are sending like tribute videos or something like that?
Starting point is 00:11:59 I'm not sure. Right. It doesn't say, it just says a video file containing footage related to the attack. Right. So I would just steer clear of that kind of thing. Attackers are changing New Zealand websites as well to spread political messages about the Christchurch tragedy.
Starting point is 00:12:15 So there's some real scumbags out there taking advantage of a terrible situation. So just be super vigilant online. From the ZM Think Tank, this is the top six. Being the company man I am, I've just been over at oneroof.co.nz examining various aspects of property
Starting point is 00:12:36 and I came across a cute little list called the top 10 mistakes you avoid when you clean your house. And then it's stuff like starting without a plan of attack, cleaning from the floor to the ceiling when you should be going the other way around because you're cleaning from the ceiling. Oh, yep.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Drops to the floor. Using weak products on tough grime. Only using one rag to clean your house. You should have multiple rags for multiple different things. Drying surfaces with paper towels. Not opening windows. I get so distracted when I clean. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:13:08 I start on one thing and then I'm like, oh, I need to clean that. Oh, I don't have that. This end up with like 10 different... Yeah, and you're all half done. Yeah. And then you're like, I don't want to do anything. And then three days later,
Starting point is 00:13:18 you find a bucket of like mildly soapy, cold brown water and you're like, that's right, I never finished doing that. No, I start cleaning something and I see something else, I'll be like, you're later. that's right, I never finished doing that. No, I start cleaning something and I see something else and I'll be like, you're later. You're another time.
Starting point is 00:13:28 And just leave it. To do later. And to a fictitious list. What does that say about our minds? Like we're all over the place? Yeah. Short attention spans.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Yeah. So these are the top six actual mistakes that you could make cleaning your house because at least you're still cleaning if you're doing something like,
Starting point is 00:13:44 it says don't wait until your vacuum bags are full to replace them or empty them. At least you're still vacuuming. You know? But it's not going up, is it? It's not sucking it up. Well, I know, but then you empty it when it stops sucking up.
Starting point is 00:13:57 So these are like mistakes. I use mistakes. And I'm doing the speech marks, the inverted fingery things. You know what I'm doing here. So the top six actual mistakes you could make while cleaning your house. Number six, scrubbing your toilet with an actual toilet duck. That's just a duck that you've put in the toilet.
Starting point is 00:14:15 You misread. You misread the whole scenario. It was very effective advertising. It was a duck. Put him in the toilet. He's not going to clean. He's going to make far more of a mess. Why do they associate ducks with... Because of the shape of the bottle. Yeah, but did that come first?
Starting point is 00:14:30 No, they invented the shape of the bottle and then they must have been like, that looks like a duck, so that's the toilet duck. Are you sure that's how it worked? Or they came up... Yeah, that's actually weird. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:14:40 If the name was first, then when did that come from? Yeah. No, the name definitely wasn't first. Because they invented the stuff that could squirt up underneath the rim. Are you sure? And also, it's more like a swan than a duck. Yeah, no, Megan's right.
Starting point is 00:14:56 Toilet swan. Toilet swan. And that sounds fancy. No, but a duck's neck isn't like... Toilet duck doesn't have a Wikipedia. Oh, yes, it does. It's a brand name of a toilet cleaner noted for the duck shape of its bottle. It's shaped to assist in the dispensing of the cleaner under the rim.
Starting point is 00:15:15 I'm going to dispute that. It's a toilet swan. It was paid to da-da-did in Switzerland. They don't have swans in Switzerland, so that'll be it. Do they not? That's a lie. I don't know. I was going to go with that. You've got a lot of likes. You say don't have swans in Switzerland, so that'll be it. Do they not? That's a lie, I don't know. I was going to go with that. You've got a lot of likes, you say, don't.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Toilet duck is just now called duck in the UK. Toilet's been dropped from its name. Now that's when it starts getting confusing. Yeah, the duck in the toilet. It's very specifically toilet, isn't it? Yeah. You couldn't use it to clean anything else. So this is what Urban Dictionary says about the toilet, duck.
Starting point is 00:15:46 No, I don't know if we trust Urban Dictionary. When you, when you, no. When you produce a short but loud fart
Starting point is 00:15:55 while sitting on the toilet that sounds like an angry duck and the bowl amplifies the noise. That's a good, that is a toilet duck. For now on, that shall be toilet duck. Number five on the list of the top six actual mistakes you'll make
Starting point is 00:16:17 cleaning your home. Not just slight inconveniences. Cleaning your mirrors with a salami stick. Now, was it a potato or a salami stick that makes it not fog up? Potato makes it not fog up. You get half a potato. No, it's because it's streaky from
Starting point is 00:16:33 all the starch. You can't see your face, but No, you put that goo on the potato. It works on windscreens as well. And then you polish it in with a polishing rag and it stops it fogging up i wouldn't know mine's got a hand sounds like it reminds you got a heater in it your bathroom does oh i wouldn't know about your peasant tricks for keeping fog out of my bathroom
Starting point is 00:16:56 mine's got a huge room i just open the window and wait for it to unfold i just go squeak and rub my arm across it then i'm like it's worse Shardai's like, have you been rubbing the mirror with your hand again? And I'm like, no, it must have been one of the kids. You bloody kids, come here. I can't reach there. Yes, you can. If you use a stool, take one for dad. I'll get you a chocolate bar.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Number four on the list of the top six actual mistakes you'll make cleaning your house. Getting the smudges off your TV screen with a belt sander. Not a good idea. No. Not a good idea at all. Trust me. I know. How do you have some other kids?
Starting point is 00:17:33 Do they go and smudge it? Oh, yeah, they touch it. Because they used to touch screens, so they'll walk up to it and not be thinking. They'll be like, oh, it's not the iPad. They'll be like, skip these ads. Yeah. Oh, I can't. Just get next channel.
Starting point is 00:17:43 What's happening? Where's the menu? You're like, no, don't. Too late. You've touched it. Number three on the list of the top six actual mistakes you can make cleaning your house. Using pudding to mop your floors. Hey, we've all been there.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Get the bucket out. Forget what we're doing. Mix up some instant pudding. Then remember we're mopping the floors. Easy to say. In goes the mop. Then the dog licks the floor clean. goes the mop. Then the dog looks the floor clean. Win-win.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Number two on the list of the top six actual mistakes you can make while cleaning your house. Dusting your house plants with ostrich feathers that are still attached to an ostrich. Don't. No. They should have been removed from an ostrich. Or maybe, don't use,
Starting point is 00:18:23 now that I've just thought about it, is there an ostrich running around with a bald spot? Yeah. I like to think they're naturally detached. They fell out. They fell out. Yeah, they fell out on the ostrich farms that everybody invested in in the 1980s because it was going to be the next big protein source. True story.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Look it up. Wacky part of history. Weird time when we thought ostriches were the future. And the number one on today's top six actual mistakes you could make cleaning your house, vacuuming with a right-on lawnmower. Technically, they do the same thing. Yeah, right. If I want to vacuum up some grass, I'll ride over it with a right-on lawnmower.
Starting point is 00:18:56 But don't do it inside. It'll ruin the carpet. Really, really ruin the carpet. And it'll chew that rug up. Piece of cake. That is today's top six. We know about Egg Boy. He is the guy, Will Connolly, who egged the Australian senator,
Starting point is 00:19:14 the right-wing D-bag. Yeah. That guy only got 19 votes when he got elected. He got 19 votes. He got in on a party vote. So he got in on a party vote. The day he got elected, he got 19 votes. He got in on a party vote. So he got in on a party vote. The day he got elected, he quit the party.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Wow. So he could stand independently, I believe. Yeah, because there's a petition trying to get him. So I mean, his time's not going to last. I think the petition
Starting point is 00:19:34 to get him removed is one of the biggest ever, you know those online petitions, the biggest ever in Australia. But apparently, that's not something they can actually do. No.
Starting point is 00:19:44 No, sadly. Sadly. Yeah. They can censor him though, right? What does that mean? I'm not exactly sure what that entails. Politician who just doesn't speak. So Will Connolly, Egg Boy, has actually been offered, he's received quite a few offers from bands who want to give him shows for life,
Starting point is 00:20:05 tickets for life. The Hilltop Hoods, Egg Boy, we have free entry to any hood show for life should you wish. You're like, oh. The Living End, I love them. Yeah, me too. My first ever Hot Mile address was about The Living End.
Starting point is 00:20:21 You know how when you made it up, Hot Mile address? What was it? I don't know. I don't know if I want to say it, but it had the living end in it. Well, you're still using it. Is it your backup? Well, no, but I don't want anybody getting into it. Oh, right. I don't know what's in there.
Starting point is 00:20:34 That's the thing. It's like a time capsule. What was their biggest song here? They had a big song, eh? They had a few big songs. I went to a couple of their concerts. They were great live. The bassist stands on this double bass. The double bass. It was White Noise. That was their biggest song, wasn? They had a few big songs. I went to a couple of their concerts. They were great live. The bassist stands on this double
Starting point is 00:20:46 bass. The double bass. It was White Noise. That was their biggest song, wasn't it? This one. Yeah. Australia, they've said free tickets a lot. Before that, Prisoner of Society was their real big one. Oh yeah. In like the early 2000s, late 90s. So this
Starting point is 00:21:01 kid is welcome at any The Living End show anytime, anywhere in Egg Boy We Trust. Violent Soho is another band that have said anytime. Wheatus. Wheatus? It's in Teenage Dirtbag Wheatus. Do you know why that's come up?
Starting point is 00:21:18 Teenage Dirtbag Because people are saying that they want the band, who still, by the way, still tour, even after this is like their only song. Really? They want them to record the song, re-record the song with reference to him in it.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Because he's a teenage dirtbag. Oh, I like it. He's a... Dirtbag? In a loving way. In a loving way. In a loving way. You know, like he was the rogue.
Starting point is 00:21:44 The rogue. So they've said same. He can be a guest for life. There's a whole bunch of bands. Rolling Loud. Someone put us in touch with Egg Boy because we want to give him free tickets for life. This is great. Let's make this a thing.
Starting point is 00:21:56 Egg Boy has free entry to every Jebediah gig for life if he so chooses. There's a whole lot of bands that have like one song. Yeah, he probably wants some tickets from some, you know, big... Maybe he just wants Ariana Grande tickets for life. I don't know. We're working our way up.
Starting point is 00:22:14 We're getting there. So, yeah. His GoFundMe page is at $52,000 at the moment because this was set up to help find... Well, raise money for his legal fees and for more eggs. And he has since said that
Starting point is 00:22:28 the, because so much money's been raised, and he may not even need a lawyer because he was released without charge pending further investigation, that donations will go to victims of the Christchurch terror attacks. So that's nice of him as well.
Starting point is 00:22:44 And nominations as well rolling in for Young Australian of. Good on him. So that's nice of him as well. And nominations as well rolling in for Young Australian of the Year for him. Young Australia of the Year Award. Apparently people have been sending the nomination form, linking that online. Is it? It's not right in their way. It's decided by a committee.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Yeah, so it's unlikely that would happen because it's not like a popularity contest. It is decided. Sex needs to release a song with one of these bands and it'll be number one on the Triple J Top 100. And that's like as good as an Australian, you know, knighthood. Yeah, it's true. Massive. Married at First Light Australia
Starting point is 00:23:20 is apparently falling apart behind the scenes. The members of the show, I don't know about the contracts, but I'm guessing they're obviously not allowed to share behind the scenes stuff on their social media because it's filmed beforehand as well. And it sounds like the producers get access to their Instagram accounts as well.
Starting point is 00:23:42 So it seems like these contestants this year are sick of what's been going on. They say they've been edited. There's storylines that have been made up. This is an insider saying that the majority of the participants feel powerless. They're sick of being silenced and told what they can and can't say
Starting point is 00:24:04 to keep up the facade. Most of the storylines were completely manufactured and they were forced to watch their reputations get trashed by editing tricks and they were unable to defend themselves. What were they expecting going on a reality TV show? Like, come on. Yeah, but we know that.
Starting point is 00:24:20 But then I think sometimes people don't realise there's a lot of editing, they can cut it together. I mean, your reaction might not even be a reaction to the thing that was said. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. The footage, they can cut it together in any way they want. But maybe they just aren't aware of that.
Starting point is 00:24:41 So their contract said they can't do interviews or speak publicly even on social media. But they kind of to the point where they don't care anymore. So Bronson shared a post this week saying, it's a train wreck of a show, exploiting people who came into it for the right reasons by manipulating their emotions and pairing them with the exact opposites for your viewing pleasure. 100% it was like when we talked to the psychologist
Starting point is 00:25:01 and he said, oh, you know, we put them together. It's not, that's not true. Of course it's not. Yeah, and he said, oh, you know, we put them together. It's not, that's not true. Of course it's not. Yeah, and I don't know, that really, it went down a bit in my books after we talked to John Aitken about that.
Starting point is 00:25:14 And I was like, come on, mate, you're like a professional. Yeah, and you're doing this. I know they're paying you a lot of money, but you can't keep defending this sort of television. So then Bronson said,
Starting point is 00:25:25 but like all car crashes, it's impossible to look away. I hope you enjoyed the carnage enough to vote. TV week logies, hashtag maths. That got edited. So the whole front part of it got taken away. And it just said, like all car crashes, it's impossible to look away. I hope you enjoyed the carnage enough to vote.
Starting point is 00:25:41 So they took off the whole rant at the start. That caption got edited. So I think we're going to hear some more about this. Also, they've been sharing private messages to each other. So Martha and Nick do not get along on social media. And they've been sharing, well, I think Martha shared a private DM chat on Instagram where her and Nick were arguing.
Starting point is 00:26:06 So yeah, it's all falling apart. It's not surprising though, is it? Really? No. No. What age do you think people turn into their mums? This is mostly females. I don't know if guys start
Starting point is 00:26:25 Reflecting their mothers As much Some guys do I guess, it's the same characteristics Of their mum If I'm honest I want to say it's when you're older But if I'm honest it's probably
Starting point is 00:26:41 In your 30s Because every now and then I'm like Oh that's my mum I'm doing, it's probably like in your 30s because every now and then I'm like, oh, that's my mum. Oh, I'm doing something my mum does. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's worse when you have kids. You find yourself saying the same stuff to your kids that your parents said to you and it's just automatic. You don't even know you're doing it. It just comes out and you're like, oh, I said I'd never say that.
Starting point is 00:27:02 There it is. And I just did. Well, it is, according to your research, women start turning into their mothers at the age of 33. Men start turning into their dads
Starting point is 00:27:12 at the age of 34. Okay. Yeah, so to put that, this article puts it into terms. Keira Knightley is of the age now where women start
Starting point is 00:27:21 turning into their mum and Prince Harry is the age where guys start turning into their dads. Prince Harry is the age where guys start turning into their dads. Oh, poor Meghan Markle. They said that the classic signs that you were turning into your mum included watching the same TV shows,
Starting point is 00:27:38 taking up the same hobbies and also using the same expressions and sayings. Yeah, I always use the same expressions. Although Andrew's only 25. Is he? Yeah. My husband. And he's already saying his dad's sayings.
Starting point is 00:27:52 So like if I don't hear him, he's like, are they painted on? Flicks my ear. I'm like, oh, wow, that's your dad. He says, are they painted on? Are they painted on? As in you can't, you're not listening. And that's what his dad says? Yeah, all the time.
Starting point is 00:28:05 So there's so many. Wow. Yeah. Oh, I can't believe you've heard flicks though. Not like painful, just it like taps them. Are they painted on?
Starting point is 00:28:15 Oh God, I would absolutely hate that. Don't touch my ear. Don't touch my ear. That's what his dad always says too. So he's well ahead of his time. Producer Caitlin, are you like your mum?
Starting point is 00:28:25 I hope so. My mum's well ahead of his time. Producer Caitlin, are you like your mum? I hope so. My mum's cooler than me. Same. I think so too. We wear the same clothes. Like she'll buy like a nice top or some nice pants and she'll be like, oh, Caitlin and Whitney need these. And then she'll get them for us and then we all just match.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Do you wear them all at the same time? Is she like Mama Jenna? She's like triplets. She, yeah. We're just like sisters. She's your Mama Jo. She's totally the Mama Jo. Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Yeah, she does look like your older sister. She's really skinny so I hope that I'm like that when I get older. You know, looks after herself. She still runs.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Yuck. No, my mum's tiny. Like, where did, that's not fair. Yeah. In turn 90, are you like your grandma? Oh, that is rude. No, I'm more like mum than grandma.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Yeah. Because we're cool dudes. I saw a graph the other day of like... And it was your age across the bottom and up the side was... Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriends? No. Oh. The appreciation of your parents.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Yeah. And now when you're a kid, it's high, and then you're a teenager, it drops down, and then when you get older, it, like, goes up again. It goes right up. Yeah. I guess you do. You've had, what, four years at being your dad?
Starting point is 00:29:40 You're well into being Ian now. Oh, no, I'm way different to what my dad was like when we were kids and I'm way less handy than my dad. I'm not a lot like my dad at all. We look quite a lot alike. But that's where it ends. That's probably about it. And he loves working and I don't.
Starting point is 00:29:54 He gets up every morning and just like, let's do this. And I get up every morning and I'm like, I don't want to do this. I'm going to go back to bed. There's a really sweet story I want to talk about. A Northland 10-year-old, she's raised money for the victims of the Christchurch terror attack. So they live in a remote part of the north, far north. And they couldn't make it to any of the remembrance events around them. So she took it upon herself to bake hundreds of cookies.
Starting point is 00:30:23 And then she sold them to support the Muslim community. She made $650. She sold 250 cookies in 45 minutes. How much did she sell them for? $10.50. No, she might have been doing, I don't know. A bit of an extra cash. Or like a donation.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Yeah. Or a bit of gold coin donation. Yeah. Put it on her. Took it upon herself. That's very, very sweet. So many nice stories like gold coin donation. Yeah. Good on her. Took it upon herself. That's very, very sweet. So many nice stories like that coming out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:47 The latest Give-A-Little donation tally is just under $6 million. Wow. Which is the victim support official page. It's the official Give-A-Little for the Christchurch Shooting Victims Fund. 76,000 donations. Right. There is a couple of other official ones too, and it's almost reached $8 million in total, I think. All donations. Right. There is a couple of other official ones too and it's almost reached 8 million in total, I think.
Starting point is 00:31:08 All up. Yeah. Yeah. That's awesome. That's very cool. Orua School, I saw a photo yesterday where all the kids got out on the field.
Starting point is 00:31:15 They must have pre-organised to wear black or white and then they got into, or maybe, yeah, they would have organised that. I'm imagining an email went around and they got into the shape that said Kekaha on the field. I don't know if somebody put a drone up or... I haven't checked the airspace there.
Starting point is 00:31:32 A helicopter. Anyway, they got an elevated shot of it. That was pretty cool. There's lots of, you know, lovely outpourings from around the country of not only donations but of the financial variety but helping in any way. It's so sad, so sad and awful that it happened but the unification that came out of it
Starting point is 00:31:52 is pretty strong and empowering so far. F-E-M. Z-M. You know, there's wine. A little bit's good for us one day and then the next day it's not. There's coffee. Good one day, bad the next.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Dark chocolate. Yep. Good one day, bad the next. What else. Yep. Good one day, bad the next. What else? What else? What else? What else? What else?
Starting point is 00:32:08 Bacon. What else? Yeah, no, you're right. Bacon. Nah, I think that's always bad for us. But it's yum, but we do it anyway. Eggs. Too delicious.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Coffee. Did you say coffee? I said coffee. Chocolate. I think you need a coffee. I said we said chocolate as well. Did you say eggs? I think you need a coffee because we've mentioned coffee and chocolate.
Starting point is 00:32:28 But yes, eggs is what I wanted to talk about because they are now bad for us again. What? According to a study in the... All the hard work by the egg people. I know. The Journal of American Medical Association. I was going to be like, do these people know what they're talking about? But this is medical. They've done a study. But see, I love eggs know what they're talking about? Well, they've done a study.
Starting point is 00:32:46 But see, I love eggs. But I don't know who's eating this many eggs a day. So their research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association claims those of us who eat two or three eggs a day,
Starting point is 00:32:58 no one's eating that many eggs a day. Two eggs a day? A piece of cake. What are you talking about? That would be easy. I thought you meant like seven. They'll just have eggs for breakfast every morning.
Starting point is 00:33:05 You could easily eat two eggs a day. A piece of cake. What are you talking about? That would be easy. I thought you meant like seven. They'll just have eggs for breakfast every morning. You could easily eat two eggs a day. I'd polish that off. The amount of eggs I eat on a weekend would just bring that average right up. But do they mean like in baking and cooking and stuff every day? Well, I don't know. Or just like on its own scrambled like. Because I'll eat eggs at the weekend, but during the week I've got no time to be scrambling eggs in the morning.
Starting point is 00:33:23 No. I'll be at home. But my problem is it's probably not the eggs that are the got no time to be scrambling eggs in the morning. I'll be at home. But my problem is it's probably not the eggs that are the bad part of my scrambled eggs. It's the butter and the bacon. Or the grated cheese I put in it just before they're ready. Oh my God, I do that too.
Starting point is 00:33:35 We could get a little cupboard in the studio and just have a little cooker down there. I could cook us eggs every morning. I'd be all for that. So those of us that eat two... I'm not eating enough. We need an induction cooktop. Some induction pans, some cast iron pans. No, but I'm just saying, I don't want a little gas cooker situation.
Starting point is 00:33:51 We might as well treat ourselves. We get musical and A-list, B-list celebrities coming into the studio. We don't want them seeing a little campaign cooker. We need a little induction place. Okay, if we're getting an oven, we're doing a full kitchen makeover. We're getting a kitchen.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Because I want one of those things Josh Emmett's got on his oven. Oh, it's the extractor fan that comes out from the... The extractor fan that comes out from up the back. It's not an over-the-top extractor fan. It comes up out the back of the oven and just sucks it off the back. It's like he's cooking on a spaceship. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:19 What? Yeah, I know. I thought his oven was sinking into the bench, but then when I looked again, it's that comes up. Which makes more sense. Yeah, far more sense than making your whole oven retract into the bench. Those of us that eat two or three eggs a day raise our risk of dying prematurely by a third
Starting point is 00:34:35 and increase our risk of a heart attack or stroke by 27%. The findings are supposedly based on a study of 30,000 adults over 30 years. Again, I think this is what we're eating our eggs with. If it's just eggs, that's good. But the photo you had on this article is a full English breakfast. There was like beans, fried tomatoes, bacon, sausages, fried mushrooms and butter. It's everything, isn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:59 But then if you eat too much of anything, it's not good for you. Too many carrots, you'll go orange. Too many bananas, you get like too much potassium. You it's not good for you. Too many carrots, you'll go orange. Too many bananas, you get too much potassium. You know, like just eat. Too many polar bear livers, you die of vitamin A overdose. Okay. You couldn't eat it. By the way, if you come across a polar bear carcass
Starting point is 00:35:15 and you're real hungry, identify the liver, don't eat it. It's got too much vitamin A, it'll kill you. How do you know that? It's just in there. What was it? Polar bear what? Polar bear liver. I'm googling it. We'll just wait. She can fact check me. I like this. I googled
Starting point is 00:35:32 polar bear liver. The top thing is never eat a polar bear liver. Great, because I never was going. Too much vitamin A. What are you up to? You're so weird. How do you know that? How do you know that? How do you know that? It's from my previous life.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Right. As an Arctic explorer? Yes. Yeah, right. Yes, yes, yes. Okay. Well, it's actually what I died of. Welcome one, welcome all to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast brought to you by Spark.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Get four gigs of bonus data on Spark's $49 prepaid value pack. Now, on with the podcast. Game of Thrones, April 14, US date. So the 15th of April here, and today's the 19th of March. 27 days. We're under four weeks now, ladies and gentlemen. Under four weeks. We've had more.
Starting point is 00:36:19 So under four weeks, producer Caitlin, you're watching, because you were a Game of Thrones virgin. Yeah. All this time. And then I got a boyfriend. And he's into it and wants to watch the final season. Yeah. And so I'm not explaining everything to you.
Starting point is 00:36:33 So he's doing this because he doesn't want Game of Thrones to start on the 15th of April and have you hanging around, talking and not knowing what's happening. Yeah, I think so. And be like, can you pause this? We should just cuddle. Why are there dragons? This is all a bit silly. We're up to season four, episode two.
Starting point is 00:36:54 So you've done the red wedding. Yeah, and I was about to throw on the towel. I was like, this is bloody stupid. I was not happy. The red wedding was almost a breaking point for a lot of us. A lot of us. But I'm still, I'm kind of like still watching it. Half watching it.
Starting point is 00:37:08 So your aim is to finish? It's one of those shows you can't half watch. I know, but he just tells me everything that happens anyway, so it's great. He's like, babe, you need to watch this part. And so I do. Cute. Right.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Pay attention. No, that's a, he's going to get sick of you very quickly. That's a terrible. He's going to want to watch the Monday night when it's out. I don't think you'll be staying. You're half watching now and he's seen it before
Starting point is 00:37:37 so he's familiar with it. But when he wants to watch brand new and he needs to be paying attention and everything, you're going to be half watching. Yeah. Where are we up to now? Don't be upset if he doesn't want to hang out with you on Game of Thrones night.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Okay. I think that would be a thing for a lot of people. So new info has been released about the new season, particularly the run times. Because, you know, people were saying, oh, there's going to be like movie length episodes. Well, the six final episodes of season eight, the first episode is actually the shortest. That's going to come in at 54 minutes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:12 The second episode, I'm so excited about this. Isn't this crazy that this is how intense we love this show? We're like, how long is every episode going to be? 54, okay. There are only six episodes left ever. I know. Episode two will be 58 minutes. Three will be 60 minutes. Episode four will be 78 minutes.
Starting point is 00:38:31 And the final two episodes of Game of Thrones will be 80 minutes each. Well, that's nice. So one hour. No, two hour episodes. I thought we were getting a couple of twoies. No, that's what the rumours were. Just like rom-com length. Yeah. Yeah, like a quick episodes. I thought we were getting a couple of twoies. No, well, yeah, that's what the rumours were. Just like rom-com length, not like. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:47 Yeah, like a quick rom-com length. Yeah, not a drama length. Less than four weeks. I don't think rom-coms need to be longer than an hour 20 at the movies. No. Because sometimes they're an hour 40 and you're like, I could have edited 20 minutes out of this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Like when I acquire that and illegally download it and then I'll just make my own edit and put it back on the internet and see what everybody thinks. Take 20 minutes of unnecessary work. Imagine if you were a director like Steven Spielberg and you'd go on YouTube and you'd see someone's re-edited your movie
Starting point is 00:39:17 because it was just a bit long. Well, you know, Topher Grace from that 70s show, he's done it to Star Wars movies. He's like, I could have done a better job with that. And he's not wrong. He did a great job on the re-edit. It's his whole vibe. He loves Star Wars so much.
Starting point is 00:39:30 He's like, it's great. I love the universe. I love everything, but I could do a better job. He's done fantastic edits. Wow, okay. Beautiful edits.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Is that legal? No. Oh, well, I don't know because he's like quite high profile about it. He's not shied away from saying, hey, I re-edited Star Wars. Just because you're a Hollywood celebrity doesn't make pirating legal. In fact, they're pretty more... George Lucas might have been a big That 70s show fan.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Maybe. He's like, oh, Eric. He can get away with it. Last night I was putting the girls to bed. Usual sort of bed routine. Got them all read. That's where you read a book. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Um, and got them all read. All right, children, are we all sufficiently read? All done our reading? No, another one. Yeah, that's always like, just one, one, one. Just a little one. Just one more little one. No, not tonight.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Come on, guys. Bedtime. Can't you just give them the book And watch TV And they do it themselves What about audio books Just turn it on And they just walk away Then they'll think
Starting point is 00:40:30 Their dad's Stephen Fry I assume Stephen Fry Reads every audio book I've only listened to two And he read both Right I was like This guy's got this
Starting point is 00:40:39 Market cornered He's got a great voice Great reading voice So we read the books Tucked them in. Sade came in, do my little guess who's going to bed song that I've been doing forever and a day. And then I say, all right, give us a kiss.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And I give Indy a kiss. And then I go to give August a kiss. And she's like, get away from me with that mouth. What? And I said, I beg your pardon, young lady. And she said, don't come at me with that mouth that you kiss other people with. Wow. Your mother and your sister.
Starting point is 00:41:16 And she's like, no, I know you go to work and you kiss everybody's mouth with your mouth. You kiss Caitlin's mouth. And Sade looks at me. She's like, what's going on i was like i know i really yeah definitely not and i was like oh because i do not kiss caitlyn on the mouth of my mouth and then you go from kissing caitlyn you kiss your kiss megan on the mouth and then it's straight to fletch mouth kiss for fletch ross boss gets a kiss right on the mouth and then it's straight to Fletch. Mouth kiss for Fletch. Ross Boss gets a kiss right on the mouth
Starting point is 00:41:47 and then she's like, the other guy was like, James. And she's like, no, not James. I don't think you'd kiss James on the mouth. I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:41:56 Why wouldn't I kiss James on the mouth? She knows James is not even a bar of it. James isn't down for it. Try as I might. I think James looks upset he's not included.
Starting point is 00:42:04 I'm a little offended. I'm sorry, James. If it was up to me, if I was to begin kissing everybody on the mouth, you'd be up there. August just knows that James is a stamp for any BS right here. She's like, the other guy. I was like, I don't know who the other guy is. And then I don't even know why I engaged her on this.
Starting point is 00:42:21 She was trying to describe the guy at work that I kiss on the mouth. I still don't know who she was talking about. It might have been Soundkeeper Gary thinking about it. Because she watches the Secret Sound videos. She was all about
Starting point is 00:42:31 the Secret Sound. And I was like, I don't kiss any of these people on the mouth. And she's like, yeah, I think you do. I don't kiss. What does she think
Starting point is 00:42:43 we do here? I don't know. I'm really further we do here? I don't know. I'm really further questioning, but I'm just imagining it's just a lot of like, we're like, ZM, click. Ads are playing, guys. Do you want to have a quick kiss? A little kiss over here, kiss over there. Oh, that was nice.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Oh, song's about to finish. Kissing. Get back on the radio for more kissing. Less kissing. More kissing later. She got jealous because you kissed us on the mouth. more kissing. Less kissing. She got jealous because you kissed us on the mouth. Because I'm kissing other people. So did she end up giving you a goodnight kiss? My own mouth.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Yeah, it took a bit of talking. Right. Talking around. But then we got back into the lounge and Shade was like, interesting. You know, it was the awake version of having a dream about somebody and being angry at them for it. She's like, that was interesting. I was like, no, don't even start that tone with that was interesting.
Starting point is 00:43:35 I'm just saying it's got to have come from somewhere. I was like, you know these people. They don't want to kiss me on the mouth. There's no mouth kissing. Shut up. I've never kissed me on the mouth. There's no mouth kissing. Shut up. I swear I've never kissed someone on the mouth. There's been a... Yeah, I mean...
Starting point is 00:43:50 It's as equally as disgusting from my side. Typically, I'm not comprehending it. Hey! I'm okay with that. I'm okay that you think it's disgusting. Yeah, we're all equally disgusted by each other. Gun reform looks to be happening in New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Some people labelling it a knee-jerk reaction to what happened in Christchurch on Friday. I accidentally saw the
Starting point is 00:44:14 news conference live on Facebook yesterday and the live comments were happening while Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was speaking.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Just reminding me again that I live in a bubble. Yeah. Where, yeah. Our listeners are... Man, I cannot believe the things people were saying. Even when it comes to guns, I think I've been living in a bubble
Starting point is 00:44:32 because I grew up on a farm and there was always guns around. I'm not just like hanging around. They were always kept safely. Yeah. As they need to be. And I had a gun license at one stage. It's expired.
Starting point is 00:44:44 I don't have it any longer. Yeah. My dad always had a gun license at one stage. It's expired. I don't have it any longer. My dad always had a gun license. Everybody that he went duck hunting with had a gun license. My papa had a couple of quite high-powered rifles, but they could only shoot like four or five bullets. But on a farm, you do need that, right? Yeah. No, I understand the pest control,
Starting point is 00:45:02 but then I saw somebody defending yesterday an AR-15 for pest control. Now, you don't need to turn a rabbit inside out when you shoot it. Like a.22 or a.303 maybe for like the higher end pest control and deer stalking and stuff. I don't claim to be a super expert on the matter, but also when you're hunting deer, you don't need something that can rattle off like 50. The idea is like one
Starting point is 00:45:26 shot, right? It's already unfair that the animals aren't armed with guns. You don't need to have an army type arsenal at your disposal to hunt. And then I heard someone saying, oh yeah, for duck shooting you need like up to 12 shots. I'm like, why do you need 12
Starting point is 00:45:41 shots? Like most of duck hunting, most of duck shooting in my experience was just sitting having a barbecue, chatting with your mates more than actual. But then people are saying like defending it as a sport as well. So they like to, you know, just do that for a sport. That's their hobby.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Just reload. Here's a double barrel shotgun and reload. I don't get it. They reckon there could be between 1.5 and 3 million guns in New Zealand. So some people have already started turning in their automatic weapons to police stations. You can do that, although police have said, please call ahead. Yes, don't just turn up.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Yeah, because just due to the current, I guess, climate, just walking through town or into a police station with a gun, although most people I'm assuming are taking them in a bag or wrapped up, please call ahead. But you can drop them off to be destroyed. People saying, look, I'm a farmer and I don't need this. People have said on Twitter, I've handed mine in for destruction. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:42 I think it's a good thing. Some gun stores have already taken them off the shelves. Others are it's a good thing. Some gun stores have already taken them off the shelves. Others are not. Not so much. Yeah. And the Prime Minister before Monday will reveal I guess some proposals for law changes. Right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:58 Some regulation, which is, yeah. I'm not against. No, I'm not against either. I don't understand the need for, I 100% don't understand. And I've seen lots of people defending it, and I haven't honestly seen a defence that I would go, oh, okay, there's no defence for those weapons. Somebody said, as a duck shooter,
Starting point is 00:47:18 I can't see why you would need anything more. You're only allowed three shots at a time for duck shooting, and limit is 12 ducks. Some places the maximum is eight, so I can't see why you would need anything more. You're only allowed three shots at a time for duck shooting and limit is 12 ducks. Some places the maximum is eight, so I can't understand. Why you'd need that, yeah. Yeah. What about the other argument I saw people online yesterday was for sport shooting in terms of like just at targets?
Starting point is 00:47:43 But like does that just like, well, too bad? Well, yeah, a text just came in. This isn't what I, not my words. If your hobby needs a semi-automatic weapon, it's maybe time to get a new hobby. And I kind of agree with that. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Somebody said, because again, we're no gun experts. Someone said AR-15s come in a variety of calibers. So they're not just high power you can get a 22 AR-15 but you can't buy fully automatic firearms in New Zealand but semi-automatic
Starting point is 00:48:09 you can right but I mean guns are certainly not my passion so I mean there's some people
Starting point is 00:48:17 who are really passionate about it collectors and stuff but again if it's just a collection can you have it like made to not work you know what I mean yeah if it's just a collection for can you have it like made to not work? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:48:27 Yeah. If it's just a collection for display purposes, because that was another thing I saw. Oh, this is my collection. And, you know, I don't even touch them, but you're going to take away my collection. Well, can you take all the bits out of it? Yeah, just maybe take some photos.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Fill the barrel up with concrete. Somebody said from a hunter, if you need a semi-automatic for hunting, you just need to get better at hunting. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. And somebody else said when I was interested in guns and I wanted to shoot the big ones, it was simple. I joined the army.
Starting point is 00:48:51 And then when I left the army, I left the guns. Which is another good point. Yeah. Okay. There is a video that has gone viral. So this is I actually didn't think about it like this, but a best man has stolen the show.
Starting point is 00:49:08 So there was a wedding. Do you think if I play the audio, you'll be able to work out what happened? Let's try. Okay. Let's try. I get to love you. I get to love you.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Make it. Was that? Water. Water. Who was singing? That was awful. That was someone's wedding. Because I saw the video before without the audio.
Starting point is 00:49:38 I thought it was a joke. I thought you were playing joke audio. I will love you. Yeah, we saw the video. What else? I get to love you I get to love you So What is The video's quite
Starting point is 00:49:59 It's funny but quite brutal At the same time So it's obviously a wedding outside in America. And it's... Yeah. But then this time of year, it's not hot, is it? No. Unless this video's come out...
Starting point is 00:50:12 Depends where it happened in America. It might have come out late. Right down south. Well, the best man was so hot and over, I guess, maybe over emotional and hot that he just fainted. I think he found this singing so appalling. He's like, it's got to stop and I'm going to have to faint to make it stop.
Starting point is 00:50:29 So whilst he was singing at the start of that, he is wobbling a little bit. I would have been like at that point, hey, I'm going, like I'm not feeling good. Because I've never fainted. So I don't really. I've fainted a couple of times and both times I've said, oh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:50:45 That's what I do. You were giving blood, eh? And I was like, oh, no, here we go. Because I faint for blood tests and stuff. So I'm always like, I have to lie down. And then one time I was like, no, I'm going to be brave and sit on the chair, not lie down. No, always lie down. I said to the nurse, I'm going down.
Starting point is 00:51:01 And then woke up on the floor. And there was another time I fainted, I overexerted myself at the gym. then woke up on the floor. And there was another time I fainted. I overexerted myself at the gym. And I was on the bike. And I said to the guy who was training me, I was like, I'm starting to faint here. You better catch me. He did not catch me, even with that great warning.
Starting point is 00:51:21 This guy goes down. He's out cold. And he hits the ground. And he's okay apart from the fact that he has lost his front teeth. Well, he couldn't put his arms out, could he?
Starting point is 00:51:36 No. He's okay, but he does have a napkin to his face and he did need his teeth seen too. Lost a couple of teeth. Yeah. So I would like to know off the back of this, when did you lose some teeth?
Starting point is 00:51:53 How did you lose some teeth? Yeah, how did it happen? Because I've never lost any, but my brother fell over once. I don't know why. Is that how he lost his tooth? No, that's a different one. Oh, no, that was it. He fell off something, I think't know why. Is that how he lost his tooth? Nah, that's a different one. Oh, no, that was it. Like he fell off something, I think, that time.
Starting point is 00:52:07 But when he was younger, he fell over and he'd never put his arms out. Like I was always just like, why don't you put your arms out? You're falling. Like why are you landing on your face? I don't know. Why don't you put your arms on?
Starting point is 00:52:18 You know, you always, I don't know. When I was a kid, I rode one of those plastic trikes down the stairs. I was like, here we go, down the stairs. And I smashed my teeth out. You lost them? Yeah. When I was a kid, I smashed my front teeth out.
Starting point is 00:52:30 So have you got fake teeth? No, no, no. I was like tiny. I was like three. So I just knocked them out and the next ones grew. Right. A little bit sooner. Intern Anya.
Starting point is 00:52:39 I fell into a coffee table. Yeah. How old were you? Like on that ACC ad where that woman's talking about muesli bars and then she goes through the glass coffee table. Yeah. How old were you? Like on that ACC ad where that woman's talking about muesli bars and then she goes through the glass coffee table.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Yeah, so they got stuck in wood and I was stuck in the coffee table. Yeah. You hit the coffee table with such force that your teeth were stuck and then you pulled your head away and your teeth were embedded
Starting point is 00:53:02 in the wood and you were too... Yeah. How you were too. How old were you? I reckon I was about six. So for all of primary school, pretty much up until maybe year five or six, I was gummy bear. And I got teased so much because I didn't have any of my front teeth. Yeah, I was really sick.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Wait, how many got stuck in the coffee table? Four. I was imagining two. No, it was a whole full bite. It was like crunch, crunch. Was it all your forefront ones? Yeah. But they would have grown back pretty quick because six is where they grow back, right?
Starting point is 00:53:28 They took years because it would have damaged the nerves and stuff. Yeah, crack up, eh? Did they even take a photo of your teeth just stuck in the coffee table? Oh, we still have the same coffee table and you can see the bite mark. It's got the bite mark. Oh, God. That's fantastic. We need a picture ASAP.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Okay, well, we want to take your calls this morning. 0800 dials at M, you can text 9696. How did you lose a tooth or teeth? Well, it happened at a wedding in America. The best man. And this was during the ceremony. It got a little hot, started wavering. I get to love you.
Starting point is 00:54:10 I get to love you. Oh, and he went over like a plank. Like he didn't put his arms out. The singing is so bad. Vaughn's caught up on this. He caught up on the singing. No, but that would have been like You don't have
Starting point is 00:54:27 Oh that was the plane of honour, singing I was going to say, I thought, I believe it was outside the bridal party Like you make your bridal party selection And then your other friend's like I didn't make the bridal party selection Oh my god, is there another way you want to be involved in the wedding? She's like, I would like to sing And you're like, oh fuck
Starting point is 00:54:42 You can just be the fourth We'll just get another one, there'll be no singing No, I'm going to sing. And you're like, oh, fuck. You can just be the fourth. We'll just get another one. There'll be no singing. No, I'm going to sing anyway. I get your love. Well, he's alright. He got up. He's okay. He did lose some teeth, though. Yeah. And it's got
Starting point is 00:54:58 us talking about those times you did lose teeth. And how did you? Do you have a great story behind that? Emma is first up. Good morning, Emma. Morning. Okay, how did you? Do you have a great story behind that? Emma is first up. Good morning, Emma. Morning. Okay, how did you lose some teeth? So I was about six years old and I was jumping on my pogo stick and we had a concrete veranda at our house. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:16 And I came off the pogo stick and crashed into our veranda and lost one of my front teeth. Okay. And then three weeks later I was going down the skate vault in Hamilton on my bike and I came off and smashed my other front tooth out.
Starting point is 00:55:33 There's no stopping you. And now what, I assume you have a happy life touring with Nitro Circus or what? Yeah, something like that. Or they just put you off any sort of wheeled activity. Email thanks, you call Laura. How did you lose teeth?
Starting point is 00:55:51 It wasn't me, but I used to work at a karaoke bar in Christchurch and we had a mechanical bull. Okay. Yeah. Let me stop you and say that's the most terrible mix of things I've ever heard singing mechanical bull and booze. Terrible. Terrible.
Starting point is 00:56:09 Yeah, it was amazing. I bet it was, especially if you're sober watching that unfold. Yeah, exactly. So, yeah, I was working on the bull on this particular night and there was this guy who got on and you're not meant to lean forward towards the head. So, yeah, he got told on three separate occasions. And I stopped it on three separate occasions to be like, you're going to get hurt.
Starting point is 00:56:32 And then he kept just leaning forward. So I moved the lever back and the head came up, smashed him in the face and he lost his two front teeth. Was there a little bit like, you're like, oh, my God. But at the same time, you're like, I told you so, you both. Yeah, exactly. And the worst part was we had to stop everything, turn on lights, and crawl around the big bull looking for these teeth. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Do people ever sing while they're on the mechanical bull? Pardon? Do people ever sing while they're on the mechanical bull? No. Or doing karaoke? That would add a certain element to both things. Like, can you get up to the first chorus? Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Mama! Excuse me. Thanks for your call, Laura. Jordan, how did you lose teeth? The classic game of Bull Rush. Oh. Did it get banned? Was that the game of Bull Rush that resulted in it getting banned?
Starting point is 00:57:27 Yeah, mate. I broke my front tooth and my nose. What, did you hit a knee or something? Nah, just try to get on the outside and chop down and see you later. Do you remember that? So what, you hit another kid, like a kid? Nah, I just, I hit the grass. Oh, wow hit another kid, like a kid... No, I just, I hit the grass. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Yeah. Well, that's the thing, if you played in summer, it's a hard, hard field to go down on. Do you remember the name of the kid that got your Bullrush ban at your school? I remember it, David... Go? Zane. Zane. Zane.
Starting point is 00:57:59 It was that David Brown was ours, he broke his arm. And that was it, Bullrush was banned. Everybody remembers the name of the kid. Big old Bullrush band at this school. Thanks, Jordan. Celine, how did you lose teeth? I lost my teeth probably about five times before the age of 21. The first time I was running up the slide
Starting point is 00:58:15 chasing boys and I fell. The second time I ran into a giant bull. Yeah. And the third time I was in the gym running with socks on and I fell. And the fourth time I decided I should probably just go to the dentist and get them done properly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:33 So by the age of 21, I'm on my fifth pair of front two teeth. Fifth pair? Some people just don't deserve to. What do you mean getting them done properly? What did you have not properly? Well, they were a funny colour. Oh. Every time you got a new one, you're like, that's not the right shade.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Exactly. As a teenager, you could imagine. Dan just pokes it back in with a bit of super glue or like spot welder and twinks it. A bit of twink. Beautiful white teeth you got there. Thanks to your calls to let so many text messages. Somebody said when they were a kid,
Starting point is 00:59:11 they used to love this game where their dad would slide them along the liner. And I've done this. This is a fun game. You get your kids down here. Yep. Skid them like that game. It's like curling. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:21 It's like curling at the Winter Olympics. Kid curling. And when they were a kid, their mum said to their dad, don't do that. You're going to hurt one of them. And dad said, they'll be fine. And literally the next time he flung a kid into the kitchen table leg and smashed out to their front teeth.
Starting point is 00:59:38 But to be fair, that's probably on the kid because when you're in a dad, you go straight and if they move during this curl. It's their fault. It's on them. Yeah. It's a bit of a responsibility. I mean, they don't know how to steer themselves with kid curling yet,
Starting point is 00:59:50 but, you know. Another story of when we were young, we used to ride on the back of the ute, standing on the back of the ute around the farm. Every farm kid that had access to a ute did this. You stand on the back, you get the wind in your hair, you feel invincible. And mum used to say to dad,
Starting point is 01:00:08 don't let them stand up there because one of them's going to hurt themselves. And anyway, dad had to slam on the brakes and my brother and I both headbutted a bar and knocked them. Dad had to take two kids back to mum and be like, yeah, look, they're being bloody stupid. Whenever you do something, whenever your dad hurts you, it's always because you were being bloody stupid. Whenever you do something, whenever your dad hurts you,
Starting point is 01:00:27 it's always because you were being bloody stupid. Yeah. Lots of people hurting themselves on slides. Trampolines have claimed many a New Zealand tooth if our text messages are anything to go by, but not always the bars. Somebody said their kid was jumping on a trampoline and they were saying,
Starting point is 01:00:41 oh, yeah, these new trampolines have got the nets on them, they're very safe. And then their kid comes in and it's lost two teeth and they're saying, oh yeah, these new trampolines have got the nets on them, they're very safe. And then their kid comes in and it's lost two teeth and they're bleeding. It had jumped with its mouth open and the teeth had got caught on the net
Starting point is 01:00:51 and it just ripped them straight out. okay, yeah. I mean, it sounds to me that you probably need to brush them.
Starting point is 01:00:57 with the mouth open. Whee! Ah! But you need to, if your teeth are coming out that easy, you probably need to start brushing them a bit more,
Starting point is 01:01:05 I'd say. Yeah. Many a lost two. Dentists at the moment just rubbing their hands together. I like this. This is the good stuff. This is what gets you the boat. Keep it the power to each else.
Starting point is 01:01:32 Fact of the day, day if you're allergic to shellfish, you're probably also allergic to cockroaches. Huh. And also dust mites in a house. Now, Ali, your friend. Yeah, my BFF. Megan's best friend, Caitlin's flatmate, but also friend. Friend and flatmate. But second friend
Starting point is 01:01:49 behind Megan, never above Megan. Is that right? You make it sound like I'm crazy about that. Well, you two, you're all crazy about it. Yeah, no. That's how it goes. I'm happy with that. It's good. We just hang out all the time. Now that you've got a boyfriend, you don't really need friends. Yeah, sure. You just hang out all the time. Now that you've got a boyfriend you don't really need friends. Yeah
Starting point is 01:02:05 sure. You'll come crawling back though. Oh my god. I don't. Of course I need my friends. She's allergic to shellfish right? Yeah. Is she also allergic to. That's cute that you know that. It was that thing a little while ago. Didn't she order a food and had the shellfish in it? That's right. The peanut satay
Starting point is 01:02:21 had shellfish in it. Caitlin you had to take her to A&E to get the... She got swoldered lips. She gets Kylie Jenner lips. Play if you can handle the anaphylactic shock. If you can handle the headaches. So they're associated with throat closing. Yeah, it's a balancing act because you don't want the throat closing.
Starting point is 01:02:40 Just get it on the outside of the lip. You get a good bit of swell there. But is she allergic to cockroaches? To touch them? Yeah. I don't know if she's ever touched one. Do you mean touch or eat? Well, no, it's not to eat.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Who's eaten cockroaches? I don't know. They're delicacies overseas, aren't they? You can get them from South East Asian countries. You can eat the cockroaches. Cockroaches. Yeah, yeah, you can eat cockroaches. Remember we ate the big cockroach when you ate the tarantula.
Starting point is 01:03:03 No, you ate ants. Ants, cockroaches. Yeah, the, you can eat cockroaches. Remember we ate the big cockroach when you ate the tarantula. No, you ate ants. Ants, cockroaches. Yeah, the giant cockroach. Yeah, I had to eat a giant cockroach. Cockroaches is sort of an umbrella. There's lots of things that fall under that. There's too much insides in those. Oh, yeah, it was disgusting.
Starting point is 01:03:19 Yeah, no. Bit of green googly. No. Yeah. Yeah, they really went. So just touching. Yeah. Huh. Touching it. So just touching. Yeah. Huh.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Like touching it. And the dust mites. So she'd get a bit funny in the house with dust mites? No, we had a cockroach at our old house randomly. And I screamed and she, you know, took one for the team and got rid of it. But I don't think she touched it. She would have picked it. She'd get a tissue.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I always get like hate soon. No, you'd get a cup. I get like tissues or handy towels and sm of it. But I don't think she touched it. She would have picked it. She'd get a tissue. I always get like hate soon. No, you'd get a cup. I get like tissues or handy towels and smother it. Oh, no. We saved it. Did you put it outside? We got a cup, yeah. See, I put the spiders outside your daddy long legs.
Starting point is 01:03:58 But then I always grab them by the leg and they freak out and chuck their leg off. I'm like, mate, I'm trying to help. Relax, relax. It's like, don't touch me. I'm like, just relax. Just relax. And I grab another leg and it's like, man. I'm like, look, you've only got six now. Calm down. I'm trying to put you outside. I'm not going back out there. You are. You're going out there. Do they have an emergency detach mechanism or are you just ripping off their leg? He's ripping off their leg. No, I grab it.
Starting point is 01:04:25 They freak out. The leg comes up in my hand. Just leave the crawl on your hand. The daddy long legs. No, that's all right. I've got things to do. And I just
Starting point is 01:04:32 I just want to leave them in your house. The daddy long legs. Because they take care of like mosquitoes and stuff. And like other bugs that we don't like. I'd be okay with them
Starting point is 01:04:41 but I've got three women in my house who freak out about them. Yeah. Every single person in my house apart from me. Some of them are always like, go on, mate. Yeah, I'm right with them. I'm like, man, I've got to see you out.
Starting point is 01:04:52 It's like a bouncer at a bar. I'm like, hey, look, I've got no problem with you, but you've freaked out some of the females in here. I'm going to have to take you out. And he's like, don't touch me. I'm like, oh, you've lost your league. Calm down, mate. Calm down.
Starting point is 01:05:04 We'll see you out. Everything's going to be fine. Don't bloody touch me. You've lost another leg. I said just calm down. Calm down. The worst I've had, I've got him down to one leg. I feel bad putting him outside.
Starting point is 01:05:18 I would have probably stopped after the first leg, but okay. But white-tailed spiders, I'll get toilet paper and I fold it over and I cover the white-tailed spider and then I punch the toilet paper or hit the toilet paper. Why are you punching it? Oh, like a... It's just a squeeze. Another bouncy. You know bounces come in a bit hot.
Starting point is 01:05:33 White shoes, is it? No, I just cover him and then I just squish him because he's... I don't want him to come back in. They're biting. Yeah, we don't like them. But cockroaches, I'll also.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Yeah, I'll squish those too. There's heaps of them. And then I'm always like, technically I'm more powerful than a nuclear fallout. Because they can survive. You can survive nuclear fallout, but you can't survive nuclear and fallout. You missed that. He just blew on his fist.
Starting point is 01:06:03 What was the fact of the day again? That if you're allergic to shellfish, you'll probably be allergic to cockroaches. Oh, that's right. Because then we talked about getting cockroaches. So I need to make Ellie touch a cockroach to test this theory. I'd love to see that. Let's make her go on Fairfactor with Joe Rogan.
Starting point is 01:06:16 Or Ludacris. Who hosts that now? I feel like Ludacris did a few seasons. Did he? Yeah, and they, of course, would eat the cockroach. And then she goes, Ooh, I look good while I'm dying. My allergies. So today's fact of the day is if you are allergic to shellfish,
Starting point is 01:06:32 you're probably also allergic to cockroaches and house dust mites. Fact of the day, day, day, day, Tay. Now, if I'm going to trust anybody about anything, it's going to be NASA. But what do they know about naps? Well, apparently heaps. Because when you're an astronaut, you can't sleep like normal people. When you're above the flat earth, above the dome. Yeah, when you're above the dome, outside of the dome, or just on a soundstage where you shoot all your fake massive propaganda.
Starting point is 01:07:14 While somebody paints all the air. I watched that flat earth documentary on Netflix. Pretty good stuff, huh? Oh my God. Oh my God. I am Mark Sargent. Are you? Great.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Good stuff, Mark. Well done. He's a celebrity. They're nuts. So you know. He's a celebrity. I'd recommend Sargent. Are you? Great. Good stuff, Mark. Well done. He's a celebrity. They're nuts. Don't you know? He's a celebrity. I'd recommend that documentary. It's pretty crazy.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Yeah. So NASA have said they've got seven steps to the perfect nap. So choose your length. And every length nap provides a different benefit. No, but you say it., you say it and I'll... Six-minute nap, that enhances memory function. A 10- to 15-minute nap. See, these aren't naps to me.
Starting point is 01:07:51 This is accidentally nodding off. But then, see, it's weird because sometimes because we wake up really early, I'll get home and I'll just be a little tired and I'll just lay down. And sometimes it might only be for 10 minutes, but sometimes that actually feels better than when you have an hour or two nap.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Well, that is good for improved focus and productivity, according to NASA, a 10- to 15-er. Sometimes it might only be for 10 minutes, but sometimes that actually feels better than when you have an hour or two nap. Well, that is good for improved focus and productivity, according to NASA, a 10 to 15-er. Okay. But then it's hard to say I want a 10 to 15-minute nap because it might take you five to fall asleep. So do you set an alarm? No, and then you're asleep for two hours. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Yeah. So 20 to 30-minute naps are considered the optimal nap time. It gets that stage two sleep apparently. Enhance alertness and concentration and sharpening of your motor skills. Okay. So that's when you pull over on the side of the road if you're tired and you have a 20 minute, 30 minute nap. So trouble is, I know that 20 minutes is like a good time.
Starting point is 01:08:40 So I set an alarm for 20 minutes, but when the alarm goes off, I'm like a little bit more. Yeah. Yeah. You're just like turn that off. I am in the groove now. 40 to 60 minute naps show to boost brain
Starting point is 01:08:52 power including memory especially facts, places and faces and learning ability. So if you should have a 40 to 60 minutes. Do that before a little bit. And then 90 to 120 minutes, so an hour and a half to two hours.
Starting point is 01:09:07 This is including a boost to creativity and better emotional and procedural memory. I'm just going to pick the longest one and then accept the benefits of the longest one. Yeah, me too. I'm all about that longest one. Now, apparently the optimal nap time, and the Spanish know this,
Starting point is 01:09:22 between 1 and 3 p.m. 1 and 3 p.m. 1 and 3 p.m. Minute. Ah, hola. Yes, ready to go. Thank you. You set a timer for one minute nap. So apparently also post
Starting point is 01:09:37 lunch, you know, after lunch, you might have had too many carbohydrates or five wines, one of the two. Two slices of gallop bread or four seven-yard blanches. A short nap between one and three, which isn't a short nap. That's two hours you're supposed to be at work, is a great solution to get your day back on track. Right.
Starting point is 01:09:56 And apparently you shouldn't sleep after three because that will affect your ability to get back to sleep at night. Setting an alarm is a very important part of an optimal nap. That's because you need to wake up for that. And this is, I've never heard of this and then in the last year
Starting point is 01:10:09 it's been everywhere, the coffee nap. I was just going to, I was going to say that before. You've got to have it right before you nap though. Yes, yes. You literally have it
Starting point is 01:10:16 as you're jumping into bed to have your nap or wherever you're going to nap. Drink it, nap and then when you wake up it will have kicked in. It'll give you an extra go. Right. Also creating the right settings that have reduced light. It'll give you an extra go. Right.
Starting point is 01:10:25 Also, creating the right settings that have reduced light. It's not used to trying to do it. Put your rain forest. Shown in the face. Air pond. Yeah, or some whale sounds. Oh, God. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:35 And avoiding the post-nap blues. If you nap between 40 to 60 minutes, you're likely to experience the groggy feeling. Yeah. How to overcome this? Do the coffee nap. Also, expose yourself to bright light and wash your face with a cold flannel.
Starting point is 01:10:49 So if you've got a secret little posse or spot at work, we have a little afternoon nap. Yeah. These tips come in very handy. And apparently, napping during the day will lead to a better sleep at night. So if you're having trouble sleeping at night, you might need a day nap.
Starting point is 01:11:03 Right. As well as more night sleep. After four. Yeah. The problem is finding a job where they'll just might need a day nap. Right. As well as more night sleep. It's just not after four or three. Yeah, the problem is finding a job where they'll just let you have a nap. Yeah. Well, they don't have to know. I used to sleep under my desk. It was dark under there. No one knew I was there.
Starting point is 01:11:14 Well, what about these, you know, like we don't have a job where you can, but they're all, oh, I'm working from home today. Yeah, right. You're going to play with yourself and have a two-hour snooze. That is my kind'm working from home.
