This is the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast, thanks to Spark. You can stay connected with free Wi-Fi a gig a day on the $19 Spark prepaid rollover pack. Enjoy. Thanks, Anya. Good morning. Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. I just want to say, have you guys noticed we've got some new bins at work here? Are they the compost bins? Yeah. Yeah.

What are you supposed to put in there? And plus they're like cardboard? Yeah. So what if it like rots the bottom of the bin? No, no, it's got a lining. It's got a plastic. Oh, okay. It's got a lining in it.

They thought of everything. I don't know if it's plastic. Oh, right, okay. It might be that biodegradable plastic. Bioplastic or something. Oh, right. But that's know if it's plastic. Oh, right, okay. It might be that biodegradable plastic. Bioplastic or something. Oh, right. But that's great. It's wonderful.

No, but there's too many bins now because the other day, because I go out and throw everything out after the show, and I'm in a rush. Yeah, every day you do that, you definitely throw out all your... Most days.

Sometimes, Bree and Clint will be like, you've left your bananas in here and your oats. And you were like, well, the company doesn't have a compost bin. Action was taken. Action was taken. But it's hard when you've got four or five bins and you're in a rush. You're just like, what?

And like, you've got your coffee cup, but it's got a plastic lid. So does that go into the, which one does that go into? That's going to take you three seconds. I've stood behind someone who's also been like, oh, which bin, which bin? And then I step up and go, oh, which bin? It's pressure. But then it probably all just gets thrown into the same thing anyway.

No, but one of them says, it doesn't say rubbish, it says landfill. General landfill. So it's like extra guilt. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not just like rubbish. Even when I saw that thing on the news, they're just taking it all to Thames anyway,

and it's sitting there. Are they? Soon Thames will just be a big plastic tower. But Thames is lovely. Why are we taking it here? Thames sucks. Fill it with plastic. Oh, only because they broke into your car, right?

Yeah. They've got all those old gold mines there. Here's a little bit of a life hack. Put the plastic in the old holes that we dug. You're welcome. Just start chucking it down the shafts. When it fills up, put a bit of dirt on top.

No harm, no foul. Thames. What about the water under there? The water systems? It's plaster. Thames. Thames are drinking. Okay, right. Sorry, but they've left themselves little choice. Thatins of drink. Okay, right. Sorry, but they've left themselves little choice. That's Vaughan Smith on recycling.

Hide it. No harm, no foul. All right, you lot, listen up. It's story time. Three news headlines for story time. Vaughan and Megan must pick one headline, one story only. Headline one, man makes a not so easy thousand dollars. Oh, headline two

because I get these headlines and I think this will be great. And then we get on air and I'm like, I don't know about this. How would you say there's a place in America, it's D-Y-C-K D-Y-C-K Dick.

Dick. Well just know that we're saying D-Y-C-K. Dick. Duck. Dyke. Well, just know that we're saying D-Y-C-K, dick. Dick Memorial Bridge goes limp. Headline three, huge squirrel population driving farmers nuts. I just like that headline. Okay, so those are your headlines today. I like one that headline. Okay, so those are your headlines today. I like one and two. And two and three are pretty self-explanatory.

Yeah, right. Yeah, I just, yeah, okay. Okay, so you want to know how the man made an easy... Remember when you were a kid and you would murder someone for $1,000? What? No. You were saying not so easy $1,000. When you were a kid, if someone said, I'll give you $1,000,

all you've got to do is poison the town water supply, you'd be like, done. Because $1,000 was an incomprehensible amount of money. Yeah. I'd probably still poison a town water supply for $1,000. Thames. Leave Thames alone. I don't know, I've got a real...

I've got a real thing in my mind about Thames. I'm irritated. It was one scumbag that broke into your car while you were tramping. I know. And what about those lovely ladies that helped you? Oh, my gosh, yes, the Waumu. But they're more Waumu folk. Oh, right, okay.

Waumu. They're at the cafe. If you're going up that coast, by the way, stop in and see those ladies. That cafe is good. Well, we go to Portland now in Oregon in the United States. Now, somebody had a,

I guess an old mobile home, an old caravan. We'd call it a caravan. RV? Looks more like a port-a-com. You know those things they put on booting sites or something?

Oh, yeah, yeah. You might have them as like a little sleeper. Well, someone had one of those. It was in the backyard. It was horrible. It needed to be removed. They wanted it off their yard.

Demolished, gone. So they put an ad on Craigslist. Craigslist. Craigslist. They call it Craigslist. We don't really have it. I guess Gumtree might be the closest thing we have here to that. But that's more of an Australian thing.

The owner said, look, I will give someone $1,000 to remove this. Scum tree might be the closest thing we have here to that. But that's more of an Australian thing. The owner said, look, I will give someone $1,000 to remove this. Now, it was on wheels. So the person literally just had to come with some kind of pickup truck and take it away. So a man did that. Yeah. 35-year-old Derek Conley responded to the ad. He went round on Saturday afternoon, took the trailer away and took the $1,000.

He then decided to leave that at a school. At an elementary school. He just pulled up in a school car park, unhitched the trailer, drove off with this $1,000 and thought, well, that's... But surely the trailer it was on was... Did he put it on the trailer or he just hooked it up to the...

I think it was on, it was built in. So it was in towable condition. It was in towable. In my mind, that had rotted through. There's no wall on one side. But you can see the wheels there. So yeah. He just left it there.

So police are like, who's dumped this in a school and found the owner? I'm guessing there was some stuff left inside. He's like, well, no, this guy came around. I paid this guy a thousand bucks. Yeah. So, now that guy has been arrested and is facing charges. I'm not sure what for, but he's got a mugshot. And I'm sure he's going to spend $1,000 more on lawyers.

More than. Someone that dumb shouldn't have a truck. Dumb people can drive more. I know they can, but they shouldn't be given the tools to further dumb themselves. Yeah. That's silly. Take it to the middle of nowhere and set it on fire.

Yeah, that's what I would have done. Yeah, probably Tim's. Well, yesterday there was a lotto draw. Last night, the Wednesday fire. Yeah, that's what I would have done. Yeah, probably Thames. F.M. Well, yesterday there was a lotto draw. Last night, the Wednesday draw. Yeah. And it would have been one of the worst ones to win of all time. Because if you were at home and maybe you were going old school.

Yep. Or you were with your parents and were going old school and watching the actual draw and circling the numbers. Or then later on you checked on the app, either by scanning your ticket or seeing your numbers in the online purchase, you would have got the do-do-do-do-do little sound because you would have won first division. And you would have been like, oh my God. Oh my God.

It's finally happened. Yeah. I've won first division. Text them off, say, I'm not coming in tomorrow. Stick it up your a-hole, like something horrible like that. So how much was the prize money? Well, Megan. Yeah.

Yes, go on. Last night's lotto in First Division was won by 40 people. Wow. 40 people. So how much money did they get? Because I've seen First Divisions where they get six figures and it might be like 100,000 or 100 and something thousand. Oh, yeah.

If it's any six figures, you'd just be like, yes. You'd be stoked. But still, First Division getting 100K. Because in my mind, surely you're getting a mil, aren't you? If you win First Division. Not with Powerball, aren't you? $25,000. Which we just said before when you were a kid,

you were to poison the town water supply for $1,000. Like, for a kid, that's a lot of money. But, you know, in your mind, when you win First Divvy, like you said, worst case, you just added it up in your head and you're like, you're winning a million, aren't you? No, you're not. You're winning a 40th of that. I would be absolutely stoked with 25,000. Yeah, I would be stoked to get 25,000, but not from First Division, lotto.

Yeah. Like, to me, that's a second or third division prize. Yeah. Do you know, here's the weird thing, because you're thinking, that many people won, what the hell were the numbers? Yeah. 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. How crazy is that?

They were odd numbers. Oh, wow. Sequential odd numbers 9, 11 and 13. How crazy is that? They were odd numbers. Oh, wow. Sequential odd numbers from 3 through to 13. A lot of those will be birthday days as well because you've got all the under 12. Yep. Bonus ball was 36

and power ball was 7. So, 40 people won first division last night. Only two of those people won Powerball. So they got two and a half million. Okay. See, I'd be stoked with that. That's better.

But the 40 people that won First Division. Yeah. 25,000 each. That's crazy. That's good, I guess. Share it around to lots of people. I mean, if it was me, I'd be mega pissed. When it gets up to like 36 million, I always have a lotto chat with mum.

Do you have a lotto chat with your mum? No. We always have a lotto chat. If I ring my nan, we always have a lotto chat. That is a million dollars. Yeah. So divided by, yeah, those 40 people. Which is nuts, right?

Because that means that it was freshly won. Yeah. They just started again. And 40 people won it. Yet they have weeks where it's right up their power. Sure, it's Powerball, but nobody wins first division for weeks and then 40 people win in one week. But when it's getting right

up there, I always have a lot of conversation with the woman of my family who came before me, my grandmother and my mum, and they're always like, you know, I hope it gets split between people. That's a lot of money. If I won that, I'd be like, this better not be split between anybody. I won $36 million. And it's the same with that, I'd be like, this better not be split between anybody. I want $36 million.

And it's the same with first, I would be gutted. I mean, it's $25,000, I'm sure. But how many times are you going to win first division in your life? Exactly. And the time that you win it, 39 other people do it too. Exactly. That'd be my luck,

eh, if I ever won. Because I'm guessing, like you say, the lotto numbers of birthdays and stuff, but who's picking them all odd numbers that low? I feel guilty because I only like even numbers, but if I have to pick lotto numbers, I always chuck a couple of odds in there. Yeah, yeah, mix it up. Well, maybe that's where you're going wrong. Just go low. Yeah.

The Top Six with Vaughan Smith. Hello there and welcome to The Top Six with Vaughan Smith Hello there and welcome to The Top Six Today we're looking at the claim that the HMS Endeavour has been found This is going to be confirmed at the end of this week apparently Okay This is a massive one for naval historians And New Zealand history too Yeah, I'm sure

It's on our 50 cent piece So had it sunk and we didn't know where it was So this is the story of the Endeavour. After Captain Cook used it to sail around the South Pacific, he was eaten. He was eaten in That's the general feeling. Hawaii.

Hawaiian Island, he was eaten. At the time though, known as the Sandwich Islands. He died, yes. It was from there that the Endeavour was sold to the United States Navy. Okay. And it was renamed Lord Sandwich II. Oh, and they used it as an aircraft carrier, didn't they?

Correct. Yes. For early prototype helicopters. Yeah. It was hired to, oh no, sorry, it wasn't sold to the Americans. It was kept within the British. It was renamed Lord Sandwich II, and it was used to transport British troops during the American War of Independence.

Right. Which is when they wanted to be independent from the British. So it was used to transport troops. Then it was actually scuttled off Rhode Island in an attempt to form a blockade so the Americans couldn't get more supplies in. Yeah.

So like one of the most important boats in New Zealand history was just like we need to block the way in. Sink that boat. And so they scuttled it.

But they scuttled a whole lot of boats. So there's been these boats lying on the bottom of the ocean since 1778. Good Lord.

Wow. And they believe they've finally identified which one. Using sonar equipment, divers are going down to confirm that this is the Endeavour. Wow. Okay. Yeah. So today's top six are the top six things they'll find on board the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour. Okay.

That's 240 years it's been under there. Okay. A long time. I hope it's the Endeavour. That's 240 years it's been under there. Okay. A long time. I hope it's treated timber. I don't know what it was made of. Because every now and then they find a boat in New Zealand like shifting sands or whatever. I mean, they're not going to sail it,

but it's in good nick and they're like, oh, it was made of coldy. We just cut down some of your most majestic, beautiful, huge trees and made this and it lasts because it's in good nick and they're like oh it was made of coldy we just cut down some of your most majestic beautiful huge trees and made this and it lasts because it's a hard wood but that can't have been

because it came here to discover New Zealand but it might have been made from a I don't even know where it was made okay who made it?

anyway the top six things you'll find on board the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour number six a hot roast mower from the supermarket that's what they used to have instead of the hot roast chickens.

That's why we don't have them anymore. Oh, yeah, well, that's why they got it, because they had a big journey ahead of them. You had to put it in the whole thing, took up the whole trolley. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The mower. And then you, like, had sandwiches that day, and then you put it in the fridge and kind of picked at it for up to a week.

Yeah. Yeah. And then you forget about it, but you don't put it in the rubbish till rubbish day because if you take it out of the fridge, it'll start stinking at the bin. Number five on the list of the top six things they'll find on board the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour are sat-nav with the history that's just a whole little like squiggles through the South Pacific. Yeah.

But nothing down there because they didn't know too much about it at the time. True. Yeah. And probably like beside it there'll be like a little bit of paper with a map

and he's like, there's something here, something here. Don't go through here, there's monsters. That's a bit of a joke back in the day. They used to love that.

I'm the only one that sailed down there, aren't I? And everyone's like, yeah, you're the only one that's been there. He's like, monsters. There were definitely monsters. Big huge sea monsters down there. He's like, monsters. They were definitely monsters.

Big, huge sea monsters down there. Don't go down there. Yeah. Number four on the list of the top six things they'll find on board the Endeavor to confirm it's the Endeavor, a DVD copy of Pirates of the Caribbean,

The Curse of the Black Pearl. It's not Blu-ray because it was so long ago. It was actually before Blu-ray when the ancient technology of DVDs was the best they could hope for. They looked up to them, didn't they? What's that?

The sailors. Oh, yeah, they love those movies. Yeah. They like the realism of the sail ships. Yeah. Big fans of Johnny Depp too. Yeah. Number three on the list of the top six things

aboard the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour, a New Zealand 50 cent piece. Bit ego driven, really. Yeah. Don't want to show off, but my it's the Endeavour. A New Zealand 50 cent piece. Bit ego driven, really. Yeah. Don't want to show off, but my boat's on a coin. Don't, it's just,

it's not a brag. I'm just saying. Yeah, it's factual. Number two on the list of the top six things you'll find on board the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour. Posters of other boats.

You know like how truck drivers have posters of other trucks? They love that. They do love that. They have magazines, don't they? Yeah. That they buy. Yeah, and they fold out and posters of other trucks? They love that. They do love that. And they have magazines, don't they, that they buy? Yeah, and they fold out and they're like, oh, one day. That's what they're doing in rest stops. They pull over

the truck. Yeah. Have a read. Right. It's good stuff. A read. Good trucks. And the number one thing you'll find on board the Endeavour to confirm it's the Endeavour for today's top six. Some America's Cup memorabilia and a pair of Peter Blake's red socks. Lucky red socks for the sailing.

Lucky red socks. Because did you know that the America's Cup boat that we won in is the great, great, great, great, great granddaughter of the Endeavour? No idea. That's fascinating. How is that a thing though? Boats don't give birth. Have you never seen boats humping?

No. Have you not? Well, that's actually what happened with the Titanic. The Titanic mistook the iceberg for another boat and tried to mount it. Yeah, yeah. For breeding purposes, but, oopsie, didn't work. Yeah, your naval history's got a little bit to work on. Someone say, I need a lighthouse to show me the way.

Oh, my God. That's today's top six. FVM, the podcast. I remember when it was announced, when was it? 18 months, two years ago, that the bike sharing phenomenon was hitting Auckland. Now, these aren't, are they anywhere else?

Does Christchurch and Wellington, I feel like Christchurch had something like this. I'm just going to website. Maybe not Onzo. Onzo is the one that's in Auckland and that's the one we see all the time. I've used the ones in Christchurch

that aren't Onzo and you've got to, you get the app and you can, that's very cool. Okay, so there are the, there are other versions of this around, but basically the idea is you get an app,

you put, do you put your credit card in the app? And you go up and you scan a barcode on the bike using the app on your phone and it's like, sweet, you've got this bike. And then it says, this person's got this bike, a little lock goes undone and you can ride that bike around and use the bike. It's a great idea.

However, however, when I see that I've made them out to my house in the suburbs, which is a good ride from around the centre city, which was, I believe, where they were supposed to service, I'm like, how are you getting home?

And then you see them in a tree, chucked in a park. I see a lot of people riding them on my way to work in the morning The weird thing is The kind of people that don't look like they have an app That's the unusual thing You've got to use an app to unlock it That's got all your details and your credit card assigned to it

Unless you're so keen to have a free hoon on a bike You steal a credit card and make a fake alias Which seems like a lot of work Because if you want to ride a bike There's other ways to do it. So when they announced that, I was like, this ain't going to end well, but apparently it's going okay. Right.

So much so that they're expanding their business and soon hitting the streets of Auckland, they're going to have electric scooters. Two and a half thousand. Are you serious? Two and a half thousand. Like electric electric scooters. Two and a half thousand. Are you serious? Two and a half thousand. It's like electric razor scooters. Correct. The e-scooters.

Oh, my God. We're going to be... See, so as someone that lives in the city, downtown, I both love and hate them. The bikes. Because they're everywhere. You could literally just dump one on the footpath. That's the weird thing about it.

You're supposed to leave it at a place. Whereas you go around to countries around the world and they have like docking stations, like the Christchurch ones we talked about. And, you know, so you take them to a specific station nearest to where you're going to. No, I think that's what you're supposed to do with these ones as well.

There are like drop-off points where people are like, ride, ride, ride, done. Yeah, but it's like when you go to a supermarket, the trolleybays are always just a little bit too far away. And you're just like, shove! Or just leave it in the car by the trolley. Be free, just leave it somewhere. So it's going to be only worse with these.

But this is my thought on these. The bikes are human powered. Yeah. These are e-scooters. And it says every 30 kilometres they're going to need a recharge. Oh, so these might have to go to somewhere. They'll have to have a specific station to go to. So when you're finished, you click it back in,

like put it on it and it'll start charging again. But you can do manual override, right? Just like scoot with your foot. I love that's your idea of manual override. Power off. I'll take it from here, scooter. Get my leg going. Yeah, I don't know.

But 30 kilometres. These are just going to end up everywhere. 30 kilometres. It's 15 kilometres to my house. I could get there. I could get back. On one charge. On one charge. Is that how you're going to start getting to work? You're not scootering to work in the morning. When they are released, let's do

a test. See if I can get home and back. It'll take you like an hour and a half. I'm willing. No, have you seen how fast some of these go? Like someone go whiz past me yesterday online. And I was like, they're like 20 odd, 30 Ks. Did they have a helmet on? No.

Did they not? And it was on his phone. I was like. Oh, you've got a death wish. On a scooter? No, you've got to have both hands free on a scooter. Yeah. Do you have to have helmets for those Onzo bikes? Well, you meant to. I suppose. No, you've got to have both hands around a scooter. Yeah. Do you have to have helmets for those onzo bikes?

Well, you're meant to. You're supposed to have a helmet for any bike. Are you just supposed to carry around a helmet for when you find a bike or a scooter? And then just carry it with you? So this said, e-scooters are allowed to be used on the footpaths and don't require helmets. Right. Which is crazy because they've got a speed of 30 k's an hour. So that's fair honk and that's as fast as you go on a push bike

You could easily become a vegetable If you had a lamppost Or a curb Or an old lady Sure That's the thing There's going to be lots of sore ankles Because people are going to be running up the back of each other

Yeah And so many complaints If someone's honking at 30 k's on a footpath And then just straight down onto the road Police chases and all sorts of things. The police are going to have to get electric scooters now. Oh, yes. Every time a new vehicle comes out, they've got to have a vehicle to match.

Do they need to get a siren with their little scooter? Oh, my God, cute little blue lights. Just a mini siren. No, they can't have too much because that'll drain the battery. And then the people being chased will know it's just a time game. No, I imagine it'll be more like a bike light. You know, those flashing bike lights? Oh, so it runs on'll drain the battery. And then the people being chased will know it's just a time game. No, I imagine it'll be more like a bike light. You know those flashing bike lights? Oh, so it runs on its own separate battery.

But you have to turn the blue one on and then the red one at different times so they go, boop, flash it alternately. Oh, yeah, yeah, so turn one on and then in the downtime of that light, of the flash, you've got to turn the other one on. And then if you're an officer on an electric scooter, you've just got to make the noise with your mouth. Yeah, okay, that's good. That's saving battery.

See, this is e-police work. This is e-policing. I like it. 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.

I actually found this week somebody sent me a link saying just a heads up for community notices and it was somebody who commented on a post saying that they've been making up fake things

to try to get on ZM's community notices. Oh, how dare you. Who has been? This person's show will remain nameless so I shan't give them the attention that they crave,

which is ironic coming from me, who craves attention and will do anything to get it. Yes. But when I can give the attention, no. No. No. I shan't be giving it over that easy. So I'm on the watch for a couple of...

So we're on to you. A couple of trollers. Okay. Watching you. This one comes from the Mokueka, our buy, sell and community Okay. Watching you. This one comes from the Motuaka buy, sell and community page. My home.

Brianna's got something for sale. It's a Biomag magnetic inner. Okay. Now this is a Biomag magnetic inner

used for a few years. I invested in a gold label Woolrest Biomag. Okay. Is that a fancy like top notch? God me,

a gold label. Because we've talked about these before. They've got magnets in them, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Woolrest Biomag Okay Is that a fancy Like top notch God me Gold label Because we've talked About these before They've got magnets In them eh Yeah Yeah Yeah

Because your father-in-law Tried to make his own He made his own Because he was a An audiologist Yeah And hearing aid batteries The tiny batteries

Yeah Very magnetic Right So he found himself A sheet of Scrap metal Yeah I've still got it

It's still in our house. Yeah. Because it's surprising how handy tiny little magnets are. Right. Okay. That's why I've kept it.

Okay. But he made his own out of hearing aid batteries on a piece of sheet metal and just put it under the... I don't know how he slept on it. Like you imagine

sleeping on tiny little piles of little watch batteries. Yeah. Did he put it under the mattress? No, he put it between the mattress and the mattress protector. Like you would have felt every single bump. Oh, wow. Oh, God.

How much time of your life have you spent rolling your eyes at him? Actually, very interesting to add it up. I'm sure there's a simple mathematic formula. So this person's invested in a gold label wool dress bio mag only used over winter. Sadly, the magnets

are now too powerful for my body. Ooh, okay. What's it doing? I don't know. I tried to sell the underlay complete as it cost over $500.

I was asking $200 for it. No takers. So I managed to remove the inner in one piece. As it would have been of use to anybody. And look, they've got it hanging on the washing line. I don't know if you should put magnets through the wash, but look, that's just the

magnets. So effectively, they've sold the wool rest part, the woolly top, without the magnets. Right. Now they're looking to sell the magnet part separately where I would have thought the wool rest part, the woolly top, without the magnets. Right. Now they're looking to sell the magnet part separately, where I would have thought the wool part would have cushioned the fact that you're sleeping on rows and columns of magnets. Sounds like rubbish to me.

I'm no scientist. No. Some other messages from around the place. Tiao Mutu Buy, Sell and Trade. Holly has a stripper pole for sale. Okay. Comes with some extensions so it can be taller. Has a suction cup to hold onto the roof.

I don't trust the suction. I don't either. Because if I'm flinging myself around on that, it needs to be bolted in. And it needs to be bolted into not just jib either. It needs to be through the jib into some hard structure. The framework of the house. Yeah.

So she says you just extend it, put the suction cup on the roof and twist it and you screw it to be bigger. Right. And that holds it in place. You don't want to not get your bond back because you've got a suction cup mark on the ceiling. Yeah. Or worse yet, the suction cup works too well

and you're getting your grind on around the pole, and it tears the roof off. Yeah. That could happen. Anyway, that's in Te Ao Mutu. If anybody, I mean, I'm imagining there's a few amateur strippers in Te Ao Mutu looking to get some home practice in. Or just pole fitness.

Honey. Pole fitness spawn. Honey. Okay. No, but I'm imagining, like, at least pole fitness is a personal thing, but if you're a stripper and you're GST registered, you'd be able to claim the GST on this. You might be.

I'm just working with the accounting part of my brain. Okay. From the Franklin Grapevine Community Information Sharing Group, Angela's got a question. Hey, peeps, if you die, what happens to your hearing aids? I guess they just take them out and give them back to your family? Yeah, I don't know. Can you buy

second hand hearing aids? That would be creepy, wouldn't it? Do you donate them back to your hearing place saying I want these to go to someone who's having trouble affording their hearing aids? Because they're really expensive. The good ones are crazy expensive. Maybe they can be donated to a good cause. I've never actually thought about that.

Maybe we laugh because it's like philosophical, but it's a deep question. Deep, yeah. And finally, from my very own page, Gail says, Hello, everybody. I have noticed what I appear to be a lot of green plastic washed up by the tide on the beach

at the end of the peninsula. There was lots of pieces of it. At first glance, I thought it might be seaweed, but then I picked up the pieces, and that looked and felt like plastic, had the texture of plastic, so I picked it up. All I physically could. I could not leave it there to be washed back out in the next tide

to be swallowed by sea life. I welcome advice on what to do with this. Maybe you know who's dumped all this green plastic. There were also nasties in there like beer bottles. And then she's put up a picture of what is just a type of sea lettuce. And look how much she's picked up. She picked up so much sea lettuce. Gail, that's a never-ending quest to clean that beach.

You're never going to beat the sea lettuce unless you're a dugong or a manatee. You probably put a fair dent in the sea lettuce population. Commitment is admirable. It is. And she picked up a broken beer bottle, so even if she only did that, that's a job well done, Gail. Those are today's community notices.

Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. It's nine past seven. Dunedin. Just watch it. You've had a problem with Thames and now Dunedin. Oh, no.

This is a little bit of a self-warning. Just watch it. It's okay, but just careful. They're deep-frying cheese rolls down there now. Now, for those that- So that's why, you can see why I'm saying be careful. Yeah, so what, because the cheese rolls, you'd say it's a Southland, Dunedin, bit of Christchurch.

James, a producer growing up in Christchurch, did your family have a cheese roll recipe? We didn't have a special recipe, but there was known around Christchurch, did your family have a cheese roll recipe? We didn't have a special recipe, but there were, it was known around Christchurch, the cheese roll. But it's more of a Lower South Island. I always thought of it as a Lower South Island,

like a Dunedin and a Macargo. We had cheese rolls and we had like a family recipe, but I think our family recipe is like a popular one. But you never tell anyone your recipe? Yeah. Onion soup mix.

Oh no. Everyone's always got that little thing. I mean, of course, it's got cheese in it, but everyone's like dip it in the middle, tomato sauce, garlic butter, anything like that. So for those that are north of the South Island and that don't know... It's called the North Island.

Oh, yeah. You know, if anyone listening lives in that island that's above the South Island. I'm also including Great Barrier. Oh, how inclusive of you. And the Kermadecs. And the Kermadecs. And Waiheke Island. And Arangatoto.

No one lives on Arangatoto. They do. Well, there are houses. No one lives there.angatoto. They do. Well, there are houses. No one lives there. I've seen people go in there at the weekends. Yeah, they go and they climb the mountain. Okay, mate. For people who are on fishing boats.

Off the North Island. No, so it is a thing, and I hadn't even knew about it for years. Like, growing up, I hadn't even knew cheese rolls were a thing. It's just some kind of cheese and some kind of other ingredients, and then you roll it up and you cook it. Yeah. You cook it in the oven. Now, do you grill or cook?

It's a fundraising classic. Yeah. A dollar a cheese roll was the old price. You just bake it. You don't grill it. Oh, okay. Would you bake and then grill, though? Yeah, I mean, you could.

Yeah, because you want that cheese on the top. No, it's rolled up. It's no cheese on the top. There's no exterior cheese. I want, why can't you put cheese on the top? You could almost maybe get a bit of butter on top to give it a bit of a golden sort of feel to it. I'd brush it with butter.

You're thinking mousetraps. That's open cheese toast. I know what a mousetrap is. So you would make a cheese roll and then put a celebratory slice of cheese across the top. Why can't you do that and then grill it? Well, there's no rules. That could be your family's secret recipe.

I mean, you sort of want to be able to just sort of grab it and get into it instead of having some sort of cheese situation all the time. Yeah, right. It's a ditho sort of thing. Yeah, yeah. This story comes to us from Dunedin, and it's what they're grilling. They're deep frying them. Are they cooking, battering?

Battering and then deep frying. So they do cook it. Or is it raw, battered, and then? You wouldn't need to because it would keep it in a deep fryer. But would the bread in the middle be soggy if you didn't pre-cook it? I need the recipe. Oh, very good. That's what I'm saying.

Very good question. You need a work trip to Dunedin ASAP. Right. Okay. So what this place in Dunedin that's doing them Gold Star Takeaway is also calling it Southern Sushi. Brilliant. I love it Southern Sushi. Brilliant. I love it. Hot take.

So they are selling lots of these deep fried spring rolls. And the local media got into it. Yeah. And said, yeah, okay, so this is going to get the clicks. People are going to be talking about this. Yeah. We're going to have health experts weighing in, saying it's not an okay thing for kids to eat.

Then there's going to be some child obesity scare tactics chucked in the mix. People are going to look back on this sort of with rose tinted glasses to remember

their childhood. This has got everything a good media story needs. Needs, yeah. They'll talk about it on the radio. Bingo. Job done.

But they're $1.50 for a battered cheese roll. That's good. That's not too bad. Because sometimes you go down south and they do like a fancy one and it's like But they're $1.50 for a battered cheese roll. That's good. That's not too bad. Because sometimes you go down south and they do like a fancy one and it's like $4 or $5. You're like... Yeah, because you know I love a crab stick. Yeah, but...

And they're about $1.52. Yeah. Yeah. So I looked up the average calorie like number for a non-deep fried cheese roll. Why do you have to do this? It'll be heaps. $190. Oh, that's not bad. that's not bad, eh?

That's pretty good. We can afford to deep fry it, is what I'm saying. And triple the calories, probably. Yeah. But she said the average person's buying about four, and that is like add on to their normal fish and chip order. Okay, yeah, right. So when you're looking at it as a supplementary addition

To the fish and chips It could be the extra calories that you don't need Looks pretty yum though Okay, well I want one Definitely need to try it Job is done, tick FBM Adults spend an average of 9 hours and 30 minutes a day on screens

And that's according to a UK campaign group, Digital Detox And this is affecting our pets. Now, this is specific to dogs, but if you have a close relationship to your cat or to your bird, like one of those people who get a bird out of a cage and hang out with it, it could be affecting that as well. I don't think birds belong in cages, but I also don't particularly want them flying around the lounge. No, because you don't know

where they're going to poop, do you? Yeah. Yeah. Do they always fly back to the cage to poop? Is there house training? No. I don't know. I don't think so. So I've got a couple of rogue pigeons on my way to work that I've been running in with the last week. Well, they've been pooping on you. So they, no, so what, they

sit above... Are they the same pigeons? Well, I don't know because they all look... They all look the same to me. I don't't know because they all look... They all look the same to me. I don't want to be pigeonist because they do all look the same to me. So they sit on top of the footlocker or the Kathmandu sign on the way on Queen Street. But are we the same ones? So I know walking the other day and I heard this, almost like someone tipping half a cup of water onto the pavement. And I looked down and I'm like, that is poo.

A giant pigeon. And I look up and it's pigeons. Did you know that much comes out of them? Like a cup. Yeah, and then just yesterday, again, the same thing. I see it all on the pavement. Because it all comes out of one hole in a bird. Maybe we've talked about this.

It all comes out of one hole. Everything. All the waste. Everything. Which I think is in a very efficient way. But I wonder if they're like, you know, they might have evolved to be smart and they're doing it on purpose. Waiting for waste. Everything. Which I think is in a very efficient way. But I wonder if they're like, you know, they might have evolved to be smart and they're doing it on purpose. Waiting for you to come.

I walk to the side of the signs now. Yeah, it's probably for the best. Yeah. It's a warning there. You ever reckon you've seen the same pigeon twice? Yeah. Like those pigeons are the same, but. Because some have quite defining features, like one leg or.

No, there's heaps of them with one leg. Oh, really? Yeah, it's like a thing to make them feel sorry for you. Amputations in the pigeon community are quite prevalent. Maybe I might start tagging them in a humane way. With spray paint. Like tagging them. No, like what they do with sharks on Nat Geo.

Put a little cable tie around their leg. You've got to catch them first. And then I'll get an app and I'll see where they go. Put one of those tiles on them. Those tiles on the app, you're losing your keys. Just in my quest to see the same pigeon twice in a week. Yeah, put a GoPro on it. I want to see where it goes.

So yeah, maybe you have a close relationship with like your budgie or your cocktail or something. Or your pigeon. Or your pigeon. Thank you. But using our smartphones is apparently bad for our pets because they suffer emotionally. So specifically dogs, they feel sad when their owners are focusing attention on a screen.

This is from vets. Because I can imagine dogs, but cats, my cat is, if I'm watching TV or on my phone, he'll just go to sleep on the couch. Your cat doesn't care, but there's lots of cats who are like quite emotionally. But if any pet could use a smartphone, it'd be cats. They'd be very self-centered about their Instagram.

I bet they'd be on the dark web. They would be. They'd be ordering some catnip, illegal mice or something. Yeah, some Himalayan catnip. Yeah. So apparently they're having behavioural, they're noticing behavioural difficulties with dogs, and it boils down to basically like a teenager,

if you're not giving it enough attention, it's acting out. Because dogs specifically, you provide them with everything in their life and they get quite an emotional bond with you. If you're ignoring them for your phone, they act out and get emotionally sad. So what are they saying how to get around that?

Like, do you make sure if you get home, you're giving your dog a walk and lots of attention? You need to give your dog attention and make sure you greet it and limit the time on your phone, especially if your dog comes up to you like a kid and you're on your phone. They feel rejected. Give it a little pat.

Give it a hello. Make it feel loved. You can do both, eh? Like be on your phone. Yeah, pat your dog while you're on your phone. Because otherwise it may act out. Oh no, because sometimes you need to zoom in on the screen and that's a two-hand job.

Sorry, dog. I've just got to pinch zoom. Yeah, there we go. You don't give your dog any nice attention anyway. No, it always freaks out when I'm overly affectionate to it. Like for every now and then I'll be like, oh, I think I want to pat that dog. And I get down and I'm like...

Or I'm like, come on, let's go for a walk. And it's like, me? I'm like, yep. Where are we going? Did you notice when you first had a kid like Indy, did you notice that it was like sad? Because wouldn't that be the same if you got kids? Our cat packed the poo and

left the house for like 10 days. And I reckon the cat was just at the neighbour's waiting for a bit like, well they'll come and get me at some stage. But we didn't come and get him and he was like, alright I'll come back. A little strut. But yeah, animal it sounds bad but when I had kids the animals were kind of like

second tier. They dropped down a tier. I can't imagine doing that to my dog. You probably would. He's my baby. He drop down a tear. I can't imagine doing that to my dog. You probably would. He's my baby. He's my first child. That's what you say. And then you're like,

you sleep outside, get outside, scaring the baby. F.M. I was doing a bit of a clean out yesterday. Hired a trailer. It always feels good.

I don't know why I like hiring a trailer. Like going in, I'm like, yeah, and you line them up and you pick one. Oh, well. I don't need that one with the roof. That's a bit much. I just need the caged one.

Yeah, you'll do. Like selecting. I don't know what you'd compare it to. Selecting. You know when you like go to the supermarket and you select what, like roast chicken you want? Oh, you're going to say a trolley. You're like, how long have you been here?

You look a little bit dry. You're too small. You've got to check that it always has two wings. Yeah, and they haven't fallen off. I don't know why. I don't like picking a hot roast chicken, even if the wing's in the bag. If it's fallen off, that tells me there's an issue with the chicken.

Yeah, I don't like a wing that's not attached. That's fallen off. Fair enough. But you don't want too dry. No, no, no, exactly. You always go for a succulent, moist, plump-looking hot roast chicken. And don't let the stuffing fool you because sometimes the stuffing's propping everything up.

It's a professional thing. You've got to take your time. Pick it out. So it's like that. Yeah, picking a trailer, which trailer you're going to use. So then I take the trailer home and once again prove that I've still got the skills to back a trailer. Oh, good. Okay. Good trailer back.

And my wife is always like, I don't know how you do it. Which is like the only thing I can do that impresses her anymore. Backing a trailer. The only thing. Yeah. And that's literally I can't think of. Well, you know, next time, you know, you're like in the mood. Yeah. Okay. Go out, you know, nine

at night. Just be like, hey, watch this. Back the trailer in. But I've got to go hire a trailer. I'll get home, she'll be asleep. I'll be like, I'm in the mood. Just pop it out. Where are you going? Hire a trailer.

What? Don't worry, you'll see. You'll see, all right. No, but you're also, because you're getting it from the servo, get an ice cream. Say you're going out for ice cream. Come back the servo, get an ice cream. Oh, yes. So you're going out for ice cream. Yes.

Come back with the trailer. Put the ice cream in the trailer. Reverse it. Put her in the trailer. Reverse it. And then in the trailer, we get down to business in the trailer. She'll be so impressed. No one wants to get down to business in the trailer because there'll be a bit of dirt

from the previous user. Does she get the ice cream before or after? Is it like a treat? Cheering, Megan. Why not? Yuck. Everything all at once. Yuck.

You're back on the cold steel of a hired trailer. I'm just trying to help you out here. Yeah, I appreciate it. Appreciate the thought. So hire a trailer, pick my trailer, go and load it up

with all the stuff I wanted to take to the dump. Then it's off to the dump I go. Love going to the dump too. I haven't been for so long, but every time I've been, like as a kid, we used to go heaps with Dad.

He'd always be like, why are they checking that out? Yeah, that's why I'm not going. What got into someone's mind? That's a good ladder. Dad, can we take that home? That's why my parents never took us to the dump. Yeah. Because there were

scroungers who'd be like, what's going on over... Oh, I'll be back in a minute, Mum. I'm just gonna climb through this dangerously rusty metal. Mum, I've got tetanus. For something that I don't need. I've cut myself. Like even, no, every now and then you see, you know,

the stories about in third world countries how kids' jobs that go through the dump. Yeah. Every now and then, even when I see that, I'm like, what have they got going on there? What's in there? Pick that up, pick that up. Oh, they walked right past it. You're such a hoarder.

You are a hoarder. But yesterday I broke a hoard and got rid of a whole lot of stuff. So I'm at the dump and this guy's like, oh, just back in there and just push. The stuff looks too heavy to throw over. I don't know why this guy's on my side. He's happy to see me. I'm happy to see him yeah he's like i'll tell you back into this part and uh i'll open the gate does he work there yeah he worked oh yeah he wasn't just some

random dude what do you mean you don't know why he's on your side he's helping you he works i don't i don't but he had other stuff to do he didn't have to take time out to help me he's just good at his job and he's like i'll tell you where to back the trailer up and i said i don't know if my wife told you mate but uh I don't know how to back a trailer. So back a trailer in. This is, he's still right there. Mild chat. I open the back thing of the trailer and I go to jump up into the trailer. I forget that there's a bar across the top of the trailer joining each

side of the trailer to add to the trailer stability. Yeah. Because, you know, when the gates open, if you don't have that bar joining, it gets a bit wobbly. So they've welded a bar in there. I forget about that. I'm half chatting to this guy and I jump up into the trailer. The bar catches me right on the bridge of the nose.

And I fall back out of the trailer. Onto my bots. Okay. And they're dumb. And the guy's like, whoa! Because effectively the trailer just king hit me. Yeah. And I fell backwards onto my ass from like the elevated height of a trailer.

So now I'm very sore in the face, very sore in the ass. Yeah. And then I have to make a decision. Do I cry? Because there's a split second where I'm like, you know what will make the pain a little bit more bearable? It's crying. I cry.

Yeah. Because you've got that thing in your head. You know when you're a kid and you hurt yourself and you're like, oh, it's not too bad, but then you've got a second to think about it, you're like, actually, I'm going to have a cry. Yeah. It's like if you ever grazed your skin and you didn't decide to cry until you saw the

blood. Yeah. And how bad it was. You're like, oh, no, it is bad. Yeah, it is bad. You're like, eh. And as an adult, it becomes more you swear when you hurt yourself. Yeah.

Like you hurt yourself and immediately you're like, ugh. And you give a really like clenched teeth. But there's still that child inside that's like, maybe we should have a cry. So I'm sitting on my ass at the dump, sore nose, sore butt. This guy's looking at me and I've got to decide if I'm going to cry or not.

Okay. I've only got a split second. Okay. He's like, are you okay? And that's my time. Am I going to cry? So I go, at the height of this breath, I've going to cry? So I go, at the height of this breath,

I've got to decide. And I go, yeah, no, I'm all right. And he was like, how'd you do that? I was like, I think I hit my face on that bar. I think I hit my face on the bar.

I know I hit my face on the bar. I can feel it. I can feel it. It's throbbing. I'm pretty sure my nose should be bleeding. It's not, but it should be. I'm pretty sure I hit my nose on the bar. You don't have any marks, though.

No, I know. I'm really surprised. It's still sort of the touch. Right. But I thought it was, like, in my mind, it's like, in the split second, I'm like, am I going to cry? Maybe I'll cry tomorrow when I've got two black eyes. At some stage, pencil and a cry.

Okay. A light cry. Right. I love you two are both like, yeah, yeah, when you're manly voice. Yeah, man, nah, you're sweet, bro. Yeah, right. I'm like, yeah, yeah. Just hit my head on the trailer.

He's like, oh. And then you fell on your ass. I was like, did I? Did I? I'm still on it. And he's like, you sure you're all right? I go and I'm like, I could cry. He's kind of giving me an invite, a second invite to cry.

So I don't cry. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, nah, cheers. He's like, oh, I'll leave you to it then. Because he's thinking, I'm going to get out of here. This guy looks like he's going to cry. But I didn't cry. Proud of you. Now I want to cry.

You're allowed to cry. Flet of you. Now I want to cry. Fletch, Vaughn and Megan. The podcast. This is going to be my favourite break this year, I think. This year? Yeah. Megan, it's only the 20th of September. Big call.

So exciting. I'm shutting my laptop. Only? Oh, okay. Oh, we're shutting laptops? Yeah. Now we know business. Shit's about to get talked about.

So, I cannot believe this. This harks back. I've been lining this up for a little while. But again, I wasn't going to talk about it on air. This was just a buddy helping a buddy. But you may remember... What? Because I didn't know about this. That's why I kept it...

It's so unlike Vaughn not to spread the dates. I didn't know about this until yesterday. So, you may remember we were dealing with intern Anya's cheap razor and soap related shaving maintenance situation. Yeah, she had the dried up muddy puddle. Hello. Hello. It's me. Which it is no longer. No, because friends who own Off and On,

they do waxing and eyebrows and all sorts of stuff. And laser. And laser. They got in touch and they said, we'll take care of that dry, muddy puddle. And now what? It's like the fine sand dunes of... Trees have come back.

Excuse me? Trees have come back. No, no, the idea of you getting rid of the trees. Yeah, there's no trees. Oh, I was just talking like the green pastures have come back. It's like a manicured... It's a manicured lawn, if you will. Yeah, okay, sure.

It's like a tennis court. Yeah. Asphalt. It's like asphalt. Hard-packed asphalt. So they said, you know, always happy to help out friends. Got anybody else? And I thought to myself, well I know somebody

who takes personal maintenance pretty seriously. Doesn't like to talk about it but would be right in line for a butthole laser. And that's our dear friend Fletch.

Can we say butt crack? Butt crack. Thank you. I reckon that I'm sorry. Can we say butt crack? Butt crack. Thank you. I reckon that's worse, isn't it? Should we just say the butt? The butt. All of the butt. So anyway, because I remember there's a great story Fletch has said about the time he veeted

his butt area. Oh, and I left it on too long. And you never leave it on. Jesus Christ. It's like Vietnam and Agent Orange. It's unforgiving. It says that, doesn't it? It does.

You don't read the instructions properly. Yeah, but I only read instructions when things go wrong. Yeah. You read instructions when it involves your sensitive bits. Yeah, well, I know this now. We've learned. But that was years ago. Yeah, you've learned your lesson.

And I'm just a trimmer. Yeah, you're a trimmer and a maintainer. I've been a trimmer ever since because it was a bad experience that we don't talk about. I said, that's not going to do, though. And so I got in touch and I said, let's just sort this out for him. Because if we ask him, he'll dilly dally and he'll say yes and then no. So I said, book him in for Wednesday afternoon. So, okay, I'll take over the story at this point.

Because I'm at the gym on the elliptical trainer watching Ozark and I get interrupted by a phone call from an 09 number and I'm like, this could be one of those, I'll just answer it. Hello? And then they're like, we're just confirming your appointment for tomorrow at 2.30. I'm just like,

oh, Vaughn. So you knew. And I'm just like, well, this lovely lady's on the phone. I can't say no because they're Vaughn. So you knew. And I'm just like, well, this lovely lady's on the phone. I can't say no because they're Vaughn's friends. It's already done. It's locked in. So I'm just like, okay. And I'm like, well, I'll have to get out of this later.

Did you ask what the appointment was for? Yeah, well, because Vaughn had mentioned it as a joke and I thought he was joking. So now I'm booked in and I'm having to say yes. So yesterday afternoon at 2.30, you got your test patches done. Oh, my God. And you got your test patches done Oh my god And you got your butt lasered She said it wasn't that hairy She says it wasn't that hairy

And I was like Oh I know it's just annoying I don't want to have to like Do trimming all the time For my butt crack So you're into it So I'm just like Oh look I don't know

How I've ended up here That's what I said to her I said But we're here so alright We'll do it She's like So she talked to me about it And're here, so alright, we'll do it. She's like, so she talked to me about it, and then she's like, okay, well, we've got to do a test batch. And I'm like, okay, well, sweet. Yeah, like, just to check that

nothing's going to happen. Then she's like, I'm going to leave the room. You're going to put on this paper G-string. Oh, hello! I love a paper G-string. If there's ever an option to wear one, I'm in it. This is like groundbreaking for Fetch. And I open it, and I'm like, well, that doesn't, like, well, you can't cover it, you've got to have it lasered.

If it covers, you'd have to spend all your time moving it. You've got to tuck it all in as well. But then you lie on the bed and then she comes in. Yeah. And then she's like, okay, and then she zapped me. So where was your test patch done? Like on the bum. On the cheek?

Yeah, on the cheek. Did it work? And it didn't hurt? Was it successful? Didn't hurt? Well, no, because it takes several things. Right. Yeah, but your test patch is just to make sure there's no horrendous reaction.

And I'm just lying there, I'm just like, Vaughn, what are you doing? I wasn't, by the way, there. No, you weren't. That makes it sound like I was in the room. And I'm just like, what are you doing? I wasn't. It just seemed to happen so quick that I was all of a sudden wearing a paper jester and getting my ass butt crack lasered.

And I'm just like, how am I here? Because I'm so shy with that kind of stuff. Yeah. I think Pacifica demigod Maui said it best when he said, you're welcome. You're most welcome. So it was so lovely though. But do you know, so she was like,

oh, this isn't that hairy. I was like, great, great news. She was telling me about like like, guys, women, girls will send in their boyfriends to get, like, their backs and butts lasered. Yeah. Like, they'll just demand they go in. Get it done.

And so the guys are like, okay. Get it done. And I guess they want to get rid of it too. Yeah. So they go in and get it done. Yeah, but I was like, well, that's cool. The other guys do it too. Didn't make me feel alive.

Oh, babes. You know the old rule. So many guys. If you're doing something, someone's already done it. Are you sure though? Oh, yes. Yes, 100%. Yeah, if you can think of the craziest thing you could do right now,

somebody's doing it or has done it. That's just the rule. There's seven billion humans. So when are you getting the actual sitch done? We've got to book in for next week. Yeah. Because the two laser people on the show, Anya and myself,

are both laughing that you're like, it didn't hurt. Because it was just on the meaty part of the cheek. Get back to us. Oh, because it's on a meaty bit. But then I heard that the more sensitive area back there is more like a dull thud. Where did you hear that from?

I'm going to shut up. It shoots a cold air out and then zaps you at the same time. So you don't feel, I didn't really feel anything. It's actually quite soothing. You won't feel it on your butt cheek. Yeah, okay. Soothing you say?

You enjoy it? You always sound like you enjoyed it. I wonder, could we take some calls? Like any females listening that have made their boyfriends go get a beauty treatment? There'd be women out there that are like, Like any females listening that have made their boyfriends go get a beauty treatment? The word. Like, there'd be women out there that are like, your eyebrows, Kevin. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Control. Or your hairy back. We've got to sort out this sitch. Otherwise, I'm leaving. I always make my husband get his eyebrows waxed because they're like caterpillars. And then, like, he gets a bit of a monobrow going on. But he won't even pluck it. Well, he does a bit in between.

Yeah, and underneath because he gets them right down on his eyelid. Okay. What? Yeah, they go real far down and those are thick suckers. Can you wax an eyelid? No, no, just like above the eye.

Oh, okay. Just up above. But like you try and pluck them and every pluck is like that world's ending. Yeah, you gotta get it done. Yeah. Yeah, right, okay. His shard, Eva,

because you maintain your back, don't you? Yeah, I just sort of self-maintain. There's never been a demand. She just wants to shave my beard. That's the main maintenance. She's like, can you please shave my beard? What about you, Producer James? Is the girlfriend?

I think passing comments. Hearing this, I'm sort of like, hmm, maybe she needs to entertain a few things. Because obviously the front, I think that's fine. The front's all right. The chest hair. I, the front, I think that's fine. The front, the chest hair. I mean, you know, chest hair is fine. But, yeah, the back's starting to get a wee bit fluffy. Yeah, yeah. What has she said to you, James?

Well, she just comes along, you know, and just says that there's a few over there. Oh, it looks like you're getting quite a bit on the back now and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, probably. Oh, James, you need to be picking up on these things. Wait, I like straight up. That couldn't be any more subtle. Yeah, yeah, yeah, probably, yeah. Oh, James, you need to be picking up on these things. I'd like to see that couldn't be any more subtle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's an Einstein moment. In her mind, she's pretty much like being blatant, but like.

Yeah, I'm only just starting to click. But yeah, back might be something to look into. I'd love to take some texts, some calls. 0800 dials at M9696 from the ladies. Or vice versa. When have you made your partner go and get a beauty routine? I mean, made them sounds bad, doesn't it? Requested.

Yeah. Push them into it. Give us a call. We're talking about when you've asked your partner to get a beauty regime done because when Fletch was getting his butt laser. Which you kind of set up for me. Yeah. And I'm thankful.

Yeah. You should say thank you. Thank you, Vaughn. There you go. You're welcome. I'm really uncompromising position to be put in, isn't it? Because she, you know, they see some things. Were you just lying face down?

Yes. Oh, you're in for a treat next time. Were you lying face down but like with your butt up? Yeah, like a caterpillar. Yeah,

and so in the paper G-string, so then I tucked everything up. Yeah. So nothing, because you don't want something poking out.

What, like child's pose? No, just lying straight down. Yoga. You know, it is child's pose. Oh, you lie down,

you put it up and you put your arms up. God. And then, so, what do you want about when your partner asked you your partner asked you to look into a bit of maintenance? The lady was saying lots of girls get their guys to come in and get this done. Lots of guys get it done. Yeah.

And lots of... Makes me feel better. Lots of text messages in on the subject. I told my boyfriend when I was going to get my eyebrows waxed that he should get waxed too. That was the words used. Booked him in, turned up.

He said, I'll go first because I don't want to, so I don't freak out. If I'm giving too much time to think about this, I'll leave. She's like, go into this room, I'll be with you in a second. So there's been a misunderstanding. Oh, my God.

What? He thought she meant his waxing because she said waxing, but she meant like the monobrow. Oh, I thought it was the other way around. The nose, the general head area. Okay. He goes into the room, takes off all of his clothes. Oh, no. The woman arrives back to a naked man.

Hairy, naked man. Oh, no. She's like, oh, dude, you've only got a 10-minute appointment. She just started, no, no, no, no, no, backing out of the room. We don't do that here. That's only like shoulders up. Oh, no. Oh, no.

Okay. So, yeah, that was a little bit embarrassing. Jack, what happened? So Beth, mate, and I were planning together, respective girlfriends, and insisted we deal with the Amazon rainforest situation, shall we say. Okay.

Wow. And being thrifty as we were, we thought we'd just go and splash out some big wax strips and take care of ourselves. Oh, my God, Jack, on a big bush. No. There was no pre-trimming. Oh.

Oh, crikey. Oh, Jack. So after about the second wax strip and the tears were welling up in my eyes, I turned to my best friend and said, I need you to wax my gooch. And that's how you know if they're your actual best friend. It's a true bonding moment. He is going to be my best man, but it was... Brilliant.

I couldn't sit properly for a week. Is that going to come up in the best man speech, do you think? No doubt. Considering I'm marrying the girl who insisted it was Dan yeah I'd say I'd be disappointed

if it wasn't for that. Well yeah you went through the pain you might as well have the gain. That's brilliant Jack. Thanks for your call. Some other text messages.

Somebody said I hope my husband's listening to this because he needs his butt waxed. It's like a dead possum down there. Oh good lord.

A lot of thickness there. One that's been run over by a car and it's real manky. My husband always told me my nose hairs look like crayfish feelers. Compliment. I get them waxed now and he does say, yep, that's good. Good there. That's what we're asking for. That's the situation. So one of my husband's workmates said to him,

it's unusual how hairy his hands are. Oh, yeah. So he went in and asked somebody to wax his hands. He did this all on the down low. Yeah. That's pretty sad. That's what they do. Hairy hands.

And he's like, I'm going to get these waxed now. That's gross. You're gross. And then you're gross. You're different to me. I That's gross. You're gross. And then you're, you're gross. You're different to me. I find it gross. Sort it out. So he got his hands done

and then he arrived home and thought it looked weird because the hands stopped and then the hairy arms. So he shaved up his arms and when I, they say, when they saw him

it looked like he was wearing a hairy singlet because he went right up to his top of his arm. You have to keep going. And then you've done your whole body. I also think with guys, like, where do you stop?

You know? When I get my back waxed. Where the T-shirt holes. T-shirt mark. Yeah, the T-shirt. They can go, because I'm bald, so they can go right up to the top of the head if they want. Or that'd hurt.

But you do that down to your T-shirt on, yeah. Oh, right. Yeah. Some stragglers there. Yeah, and then just try and get a real good tan in summer so it covers it all up. F.E.M. Z.E.M.

Producer Caitlin is in a spot of bother with the government. Serious trouble with the government. No, okay. I'm actually really freaking out about this. And you did lose sleep last night. I know. I felt sick. You know how something happens

and then it goes to the pit of your stomach and then you're like... Can't stop thinking about it. How can I tell these people I'm going to have to quit my job? I'm going to have to move country. I'm going to have to, like, mum's going to be so disappointed in me.

Don't you worry about things? Yeah. That's probably a bit overkill. I mean, that's why I messaged you on Facebook last night so I didn't have to say it in person so I didn't have to see Fletcher's face. Yeah, there was a little tail between the legs message on our Facebook chat.

I thought it was funny. Really? Yeah. I know. I'm in big trouble. So basically, the story goes, we threw negotiations and it took a little while to get a regular slot.

But every second Friday, we get time with the Prime Minister to chat about things. But every second Friday we get time with the Prime Minister to chat about things. But she's also really busy so to me when it doesn't happen I'm like, oh she must have been doing serious stuff, not just talking to us about whatever we want to talk

about three minutes before we talk to her. So it hadn't happened for a few Fridays. And then Caitlin messages us last night saying what? So I got an email from the publicist, well the press secretary saying that our Prime Minister

is away in, oh am I allowed to say this? She's away next week. Yeah, she's in New York. Everyone knows she's going to New York. You've not been privy to some sort of secret government information. I'm stressed. I don't know if I can say this but I know where the Prime Minister's at. So she's in New York next week,

so a regular slot. So she's, do you know, she's, side note, she's going to be on the Stephen Colbert Late Show. I know. And we're huge fans of Stephen Colbert

from the Colbert Report days. That's so cool. That is huge. I mean, I don't know what I'd do on a Colbert show because I've got absolutely no sort of relevance internationally. So is it just an interview on there? I don't know what I'd do on the Colbert Show because I've got absolutely no sort of relevance internationally. So is it just an interview on there? I don't know what it will be.

It might be a guest appearance. It might be an interview. It could be a... Well, John Key went on the Letterman Show, which is what basically this was before and did the top ten thing about... The top six list. The top ten.

Oh, top ten list. Yeah, we're the ones that do the top six. Oh, yeah, that's right. Which way did we rip that off? Letterman did ten. No, we made it easier for ourselves. No, I think the ones that do the top six. Oh, yeah, that's right. Which way did we rip that off? Letterman did 10. No, we made it easier for ourselves. No, I think he'll be talking to her about being like, you know, a female shit hacker.

Yeah. Basically. Young female leader. Yeah. So it's no secret she's going there. She's going to New York. So your regular slot will not happen. I hope that doesn't muck you around too much.

Affect our show. And I was like, what? And so I called the press secretary and I was like, hello, I'm Caitlin here from ZM. Just wondering, because I've been waiting for a confirmation email each week that we were having an interview with the Prime Minister. I was just waiting to hear from you when we have our interview. And she was like, oh, no, that's your interview time. You just call at that time. You've got the number.

You just call her. And I was like, hang on a minute. So the last two times that we were supposed to do an interview with her. She was waiting. And she said, oh, she did mention the other day about how she hadn't got a call from you. And I was like, oh, my God. The Prime Minister's been waiting for a pleasure to make a call.

And we're just completely like, I know, and I'm so sorry. Whatever runs through her head, she's like, who do they think they are? Like, I'm busy. I've allocated 10 minutes for a chat. And they're just no shows? They CBF'd her. I'm going to be on the goddamn Colbert show. These people can't call me for 10 minutes every second Friday.

And it's all my fault. I'm so sorry. And it's like a 750 slot. It's really good. And she's probably had stuff to do then. I don't think she's been sitting around waiting for us, though. She's probably moved on with her day. Do you think she should text her and tell her, I'm sorry?

I think maybe you should leave the Prime Minister alone. She's had enough of you. I'm really sorry guys. Anyway, we'll chat with her when she gets back and probably just fan about the fact she got to meet Stephen Colbert. Yeah. But we'll also hang you out to dry as well

and make you apologise to the Prime Minister of New Zealand. F. Yeah, totally. And make you apologise to the Prime Minister of New Zealand. F.E.M. News that it might be the end of the $1 mixture. The lolly mix. That you get at dairies?

Yeah, that you get at... Who else does them? No one really anymore. It's always been sort of the dairy. I feel like dollar mix... The fish and chip shop maybe used to do one.

Have kind of... All the dairies I that are near me don't do dollar mixes. They just do the pre little lolly bags and they sell those for like a dollar or two. The tiny little plastic baggers. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The coffee shop in my little area does one dollar mixtures in like white paper bags. Decent?

Decent. Yeah, because a coffee shop you'd think would be a slightly higher, no offence to the dairies, but a slightly higher calibre of lolly mix. Yeah, and I'm like, is it okay to get a dollar mixture with my coffee? Yeah. It is, yeah. I'll have a trim flat white. No sugar.

With no sugar, but also one of these $1 lolly mix. Yeah. Well, apparently the fact that they are pre-packaged and they have no nutritional facts or labelling on the outside means that they actually, like, breach laws to do with food labelling. And dairy owners are saying, well, these lollies could be from all these different companies. I'd have to put, like, if there was 20 lollies in a $2 mix. There's not.

There's not. I know, but you'd have to put, put like that many labels for each thing on it. Yeah. But surely you just write sugar, food colouring, sugar. Fructose syrup, some more sugar. Some more sugar. How does that work for pick and mix at the supermarket? Because it doesn't have...

No, all of those have a label on them. Yeah, yeah. Do they? Yeah. And if you're mixing them yourself, that's on you. This is pre-packaged. Yeah, right. This is pre... Anything that's pre-packaged. Yeah, right. This is pre-packaged.

Anything that's pre-packed. Is that just a bit of madness? You all know, everyone knows lollies aren't good for you. Yeah. Everyone knows. But my problem with the $1 mix is further back. Okay.

Right. Further back. It used to be the 50 cent and the $1 mixture, and now you'd never find a 50 cent mixture anymore. No. Inflation. It would have three lollies in it. Yes, I know it's inflation. And I know we're looking back

fondly to our childhoods, but they were better. They were bigger lollies. There was more gummy lollies. They didn't just fill it up with rubbish. Yeah. With the rubbish lollies that they couldn't sell. You'd be lucky to even have a sour teddy and a dollar mixture. Remember those? Do I remember those?

I have sour teddies. Don't they still make sour teddies? Do you mean like a sour gummy bear? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They call them gummy bears. Sour teddies. Because Haribo muscled out everybody else in the gummy bear industry. Yeah, because Haribo do a sour gummy bear.

Yeah. But it's not big. It's not big. It's not big. I remember fondly the QE2 Caravan Park in Ohope Beach did a wonderful $2 mixture. It was a very large bag. It always had at least a large alligator or snake gum in it,

like the big ones. And a giant Jaffa sometimes. You always, yeah. Some sort of giant chocolate situation going on in there. You'd probably pay $2 purely for a big giant snake now. Oh, yeah. Probably. You'd need a bucket2 purely for a big giant snake now. Oh yeah. Probably. You'd need a bucket

to get that $2 mixture home wouldn't you? Well you did, yeah. Gosh, those were the days. Oh weren't they? You had to rinse out your sand bucket otherwise you got sand

in your $2 mixture because it was so big you needed a bucket to carry it. Yeah. So you just said that they're smaller. It's totally like that nostalgic thing

you look back on. Yeah. Yeah. The times. So that's it. It could totally like that nostalgic thing you look back on. Yeah. Yeah. The time. So that's it. It could be the end of the dollar mix. The official end of the dollar mix. Because if they're pre-packaged, they have to be labelled.

Now you could do like a pick and mix but just lolly situation. Yeah. But then there's a whole raft of kids sticking their grubby hands in. I'm sure you could print a label, ingredient label, put it on the back, but that's not a dollar mixture. Then your whole bag's got stuff on it. No, just the dairies have all the lollies in different compartments with the labels on, and then they put them into bags for you.

Imagine if it got even a step crazier and they had to label lollies like they label ciggies. These can rot your teeth and then you have nasty pictures. Yeah, and then a picture of nasty-ass rotting teeth. That wouldn't stop me. Or it's like, it could, you know, if you eat nothing but lollies, it could lead to type 2 diabetes and that could lead to gangrene and then there's

just like a picture of a gangrenous foot. Or you go into the dairy and you're like, I'll have a dollar alligator and they roll up the door because they can't show them to you. They're going to have unbranded alligators. They're going to be ram raiding dairies for alligators and snakes. Oh, and soon they're going to make lollies just like clear.

Oh, that's spiralling downwards. Yeah. Society spiralling downwards. Lollies first. Lollies are quite often the indicator that a great society is falling. It's how the Romans knew. Yeah. How the Romans knew that the end was coming.. It's how the Romans knew. Yeah. Lollies. It's how the Romans knew that the end was coming.

Yeah, lollies. Right. Yeah, because they always kept them in those vases they made. Right. Okay. Those decorative vases, and then one day the vases were empty, and that was the end of it. That was the end of the Roman Empire.

Mm-hmm. Lollies. That's history, kids. The Ottoman Empire. Lollies. Lollies. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. I've got a backing track for today's fact of the day.

Okay. Provided by our music. Okay. Hold on. Let's just make sure this is going to work. It's a Jump Jam classic. Okay. Hold on. Let's just make sure this is going to work. It's a Jump Jam classic. Oh, man. I remember this song, but, like, really, it's invited itself back into my house

since my daughter started doing Jump Jam. Okay. Because it's one of the Jump Jam songs. Did you do this one for Jump Jam in Ternania? Yeah, this is a jam. Oh, my God. This is my jam. Do you still know the Jump Jam dance to it?

Yeah. And then you go, and then you, yeah. Has it not changed? They need new choreography. No, no, no, they don't. Once you find a winning formula, Megan, you stick to the Jump Jam winning formula. Well, today's fact of the day is the singer in this song,

Hinewehe Mohe, was also the first person to perform the New Zealand national anthem before a rugby test match in Maldi. What year do you think that happened? Oh, it's going to be upsetting, isn't it? I don't know. 1999. Very, very close. Very, very close.

Wow. It was before a test match against England in Twickenham. She was asked to do the national anthem in England, promoting an album she had at the time. And they said, do you want to do the national anthem? And she's like, yes. And my album's in Te Reo. I'm going to sing it in Te Reo.

Well, you can imagine. Yeah. You can imagine the fallout. She said the irony of the fact that the people complained about it loved the haka. Yeah. I know, right? But hated hearing the New Zealand national anthem in Te Reo.

Yeah. She said it was, yeah, and it became kind of like the thing that she's known for. And it's the reason she's one of the 125 trailblazers. There's an amazing story about her whole dealing with this at the New Zealand Herald. You can go along and search her. Hinewehe Mohi.

She also sang this song that's a Jump Jam classic. So today's... I'm going to dance. Wee, oh wee. Oh wee. Yeah. That's a classic. So today's fact of the day is the first person to ever sing the New Zealand National Anthem in Māori.

The first woman. She was a woman. And she also provided us with this New Zealand jump jam classic. I just want to hear the rest of the song, Fletch. It's almost finished. I can't remember what you do in this part. This is a bit of freestyle, I think. To be honest, the coconut tree was always my best. That was my finest work.

That was a great song. I've actually got a Spotify playlist of all the chump jams. Da-na-na-na-na, I'm on a coconut tree. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Different chump jam. We're not here to talk about that. We're here to talk about trailblazers. Trailblazers.

You can find a story of 125 amazing female trailblazers in New Zealand and also celebrating 125 years since the suffrage movement. And that is today's Fact of the Day. Fact of the Day! Day, day, sure, but we're not here to talk about that. On time for you. On time for me. I was confronted by a very, well, not confronted.

Don't say confronted. I don't mean to sound negative. I was, I had witnessed, I noticed. Yep. Open up a thesaurus Caitlin's hair Has drastically changed overnight So you are now Would you say that is a

What colour is this? Auburn? I I'm going red No like It's like a dark red Because at When we went hiking

At the weekend There was a photo of you and the sun was catching your hair And that sounded quite poetic didn't it? Didn't it? But you said oh my hair looks quite red in that And I thought you meant When you said you were Because I heard you say to Megan yesterday

You were going to see the hairdresser I thought you were like I was a little bit red so I'm looking to go back more brown And then this morning full blown So that was the initial plan looking to go back more brown and then this morning, full blown. So that was the initial plan was to go darker because it had gone like a bit peachy at the end so I went to go

darker and then I came out with this. It is darker it's just like really bold dark red. Rossie, you don't look like a superhero in a Marvel film. Yes, you do. Is that what you want as an everyday look? Why not?

To look like a superhero. To look like a superhero. Yeah. Scarlet Witch, eh? Scarlet Witch or like Now let's make up a new one. Black Widow with that Scarlett Johansson's

character in the first one. I think she had dark red hair. But you didn't plan on getting this hair colour so how did you end up with it? Well, I said, Lisa Marie, I need a change. No, I didn't actually say I need a change.

She came in and she was like, we're going to go with this. Okay. And I was like, okay. And then we did it, and then I was like, ooh. Because you know how when you're sitting at the hairdressers, Oh, you guys are nice. I would estimate that it's 16 years since I've been at the hairdressers. Wow. When you're sitting at the hairdressers, boys, you won't understand, but...

I get my beard trimmed, but there's never any colouring involved. So it's very simple. What do you want? Do you want to go for like a darker hue? You've never looked as ugly as you ever have until you're sitting in front of the mirror at the hairdresser's. And then they put foils in your hair and it's just your face and you're like, when did that get so round?

I don't have either of you two, wahine, talking about yourself in such a manner. No, I think you do. What are you talking about? No, no, everyone, it's the same for everyone. It's just weird. Everyone feels the same. Is it the lighting?

It's the lighting. You can only see yourself. You're vulnerable. You always have to do like a full face of makeup, but I didn't have any makeup on. She's like, no, no, no, no. Okay, it's just the lighting. And once you put makeup on, all of this stuff.

And I was like, okay, okay, okay. And then, yeah. So this is another classic case of a hairdresser talked you into it. This is the test, though. When you left and looked in the rearview mirror in the car, did you cry? I didn't cry, but I said, mum's not going to like this. And so then when I called her on the way home, I was like,

hey, mum, how was your day? She was like, how was the hairdresser? And I was like, yeah, good. So I was doing this at work and blah, blah, blah. And so then I was like, now don't get a fright, but I'll send you a photo. Oh, okay. Of my bright red hair. Of my bright red hair.

Of my bright red hair. And she said, yes, well, it was better than before, but. No, she said lucky you've got a pretty face. She did say that, but I don't want to say it. She said lucky you've got a pretty face. Yeah. So now I look like Ariel from The Little Mermaid. There is a Little Mermaid-esque feel to it.

Better to be Ariel than Ursula, though. Oh, yeah. And when I have a shower, it's just going to be like, whoa. You've murdered somebody. Blah everywhere. But our hairdresser, she's pretty good. She knows what she's talking about, so you kind of trust her. Yeah.

But there'd be instances where people go to the hairdresser and you get talked into doing things that you don't like. Yeah. I don't have hair, but it always blows my mind when women get a haircut. Yeah. I haven't heard dudes, guys probably do this, there are other guys, but no guys I know.

They freak out, they cry, they're like, it's ruined, I'm ruined, this is the end. It's like you, your hair grows back. No, but not as fast as a guy's hair because the majority of guys have a shorter hairstyle. It grows back faster. This is a commitment. It takes years to grow. And then when it's cut too short, it's just the end of the world.

It really is. I wanted a bob one time and they shaved up the back and made it like a posh spice, like short, like dude short at the back and little strands at the front. It was the end of the world. It was a different time, Megan. That sounds like some mid-2000s stuff happening in there. It was the end of the world. I bawled my eyes out for days.

And then you don't want to go to work. So yeah, I would love to hear from people who have been talked into something at the hairdressers that they didn't want to do. And they walk out and they're like, what have I let them do to me? But yes, the real test is you don't have to cry in the hairdressers that they didn't want to do. And they walk out and they're like, what have I let them do to me? But yes, the real test is you don't have to cry in the hairdressers.

It's the car, review mirror, right? Okay, so give us a call. 0800-DARLS-IT-M 9696. What has a hairdresser talked you into getting? We're talking about the times hairdressers have talked you into something different for you. Yeah.

Rebecca, what happened? I should start the story by saying that I had waist, like down to my waist, blonde hair. Yep. Natural, beautiful. I was about 13 and just about to start high school, so it was the day before high school started for me. Okay.

Dangerous day to get your hair cut. Yeah, wow. Mum used to take us, all of us kids, to get all of our haircuts and we went to one of those $15 mall just cut sort of places. First mistake. And the

lady was talking to my mum. The lady didn't speak very good English and she was saying to mum, oh good haircut, good haircut, we'll give her a good haircut she doesn't have to come back and eat holidays. Yeah. And she was saying to mum, oh, good haircut, good haircut, we'll give her a good haircut, she doesn't have to come back and eat holidays. Yeah.

And then about 10 minutes later, I was looking at a reflection of a young boy in the mirror. She cut it just below my ears. And I started high school the next day and it was the most traumatising thing ever. and I started high school the next day, and that was the most traumatising thing ever. That's drastic.

From waist length to ear length, this is drastic. Well, she was meaning, you know, you don't have to come back for ages. Yeah, yeah. Well, I cut it real short and the hair keeps growing. She talked you into a sensible haircut. There. Much easier to maintain. Thanks to your cool Rebecca.

Stacey, what were you talked into? What happened? I got a perm at 19 years old. Were perms in at the time? No, no, they weren't. It was only about 15 years ago. My hair was sort of like just below my shoulders. It was dead straight.

Oh, my God. I went in and said, oh, I just want some light waves. And she's like, oh, yeah, I can perm it for you. It'll be nice and wavy. I'm like, yeah, fantastic. Rebecca, was this at the height of Kath and Kim? No, it wasn't even that good. Seriously, I walked out of there.

My hair was probably about chin length because of the curl in it. I looked like a French poodle. How did you get rid of it? Because you kind of have to cut it out, right? Yeah, it grew out. It got to the point where my hair was, I had about three inches of dead straight regrowth and then like this buffy curly crap on the end. Oh no.

You would have looked like a wet poodle. Stacey, thanks for your call. No worries. Some other text messages in. I got talked into getting $300 teal blue hair extensions. How did that conversation go? They look great. Yeah.

They glued them in and you couldn't see them, so they hacked away at the real hair on top so you could see the blue. Anyway, the glue ended up going all through my hair, so it had to be taken out days later, and I was left with a terrible haircut. Where on earth did she go? I was just trying to look like Kylie Jenner. Aren't we all?

That's, aren't we all? Oh, brilliant. I got talked into a side fringe. She literally pulled a third of my hair, cut it straight across and told me she was done. Cried for days. I was nicknamed Cabbage because I looked like a fully grown cabbage patch

kid. For months. Four years later, I'm still growing it out. I can still see remnants of the cabbage. See, that's the thing. It's a big commitment. Yeah. Or at least guys can shave it all off or grow it out quick, eh? ZDM's Fletch, Vaughn and Megan.
