Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to the Fletch, Vaughan and Megan podcast. Thanks to Spark. Get more of what you love on the $29 prepaid rollover pack. And now, on with the show. ZDM. ZDM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. Thanks, Anya. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Welcome to the show, Fletch, Vaughan and Megan. What year did Facebook buy Instagram? Because a billion dollars... A billion dollars doesn't seem enough now does it now it was after 2011 because I remember I got an Instagram account
Starting point is 00:00:29 in 2012 and it was after that 2012 was it the end of 2012 I can't tell you when in 2012 it was and WhatsApp in 2014 they made
Starting point is 00:00:38 because a billion doesn't seem enough now for Instagram nah it doesn't nah but it would have been quite a lot would you be sweet with half a billion doesn't seem enough now, for Instagram. Nah. It doesn't. Nah. But it would have been quite a lot. Would you be sweet with half a billion dollars? Half a billion dollars?
Starting point is 00:00:51 I should be all right. You'd be all right, eh? For at least a couple of weeks. I know, sometimes I find myself going, one billion. Oh, okay. But hang on. If you break that down,
Starting point is 00:00:59 that's a lot of millions. Oh, it's a thousand millions. Yeah, I'd be good with that. Yeah. Because sometimes I think if I won a million, I'd probably get through it pretty quick. Yeah. I'd get carried away.
Starting point is 00:01:09 Also on the news, Donald Trump at the UN. What you need to watch this morning, and I doubt you'd be able to go through your Facebook timeline without it popping up. Donald Trump was laughed at by everybody in the UN. At the United Nations Peace Summit, he was laughed at. And he knows it too, the look on his face, eh? He looks embarrassed.
Starting point is 00:01:30 I've never seen his face like that. He was actually embarrassed, yeah. Yeah, it looked like a moment of realisation where he was like, laughing at me? Because he makes these bold claims and these... Well, he said, what did he say? He said that no administration has achieved as much as they have in two years. And it started with, I think, a couple of...
Starting point is 00:01:51 But he's used to delivering these speeches to people who love him blindly. Yeah, stupid people. And so he's not used to people just having that sort of laugh. Or journalists who, out of professional conduct, don't laugh. Stay quiet because they want him to keep bumbling his way through. But yeah, people laughed at him. Oh, great video. Such a good video.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Great way to start the day. All right, you lot, listen up. It's story time. Story time for those new to the show. I will give three news headlines that I've found online for unusual, quirky, weird news stories. Vaughan and Megan, pick one headline only. Headline one, latest toy for baby.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Headline two, very proud Prius driver. And headline three, why did the baby cross the road? Yeah. I can't risk that darkness. Being part of my... what day is it? Wednesday is it dark? it's Wednesday
Starting point is 00:02:50 is that good? it's a bit neat I thought it was only Tuesday my favourite thing as soon as I wake up is to be like today's Wednesday tomorrow's Thursday
Starting point is 00:02:58 so you already feel like it's Thursday that's a bit grim oh no because then you let yourself down when you realise that you've still got a whole day to get through
Starting point is 00:03:04 and that you're still in bed. Yeah, you're like, yay, Thursday with no weight. And they haven't even flipped the sheets back yet. Is the baby story grim? Oh, we're asking the wrong person. Well, I mean, it's not the best parenting in the world. Let's put it that way. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:21 What was a very proud press driver? I think I want that one. Okay. Because, a very proud Prius driver? I think I want that one. Okay. Because, you know, I'd be so keen for a... Did the baby let the pram scoot across the road? No. No pram involved. Did the baby itself just cross the road by the sounds of things?
Starting point is 00:03:33 Just crawled across the road? Yeah. Oh. Okay. Good. I needed to know. And now I know. Yeah, I'd be keen for the Prius story just because I do love a good Prius.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I'd be keen for a Prius-y vehicle next time. Okay. Like a hybrid vehicle. No. Would you... A Prius story just because I do love a good Prius. I became for a Prius-y vehicle next time. Okay. Like a hybrid vehicle. No, would you a Prius or you mean not an actual Prius but an electric vehicle.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Oh, an electric would be top notch. I want electric. But you don't want to get a Prius unless you're an Uber driver because people will be getting
Starting point is 00:03:59 into your Prius. Yeah, I know. You'll be at the traffic lights and be able to rush up. Oh, I'm here. You'll be like, no. I'll be like,
Starting point is 00:04:04 check the number plate, fool. Yeah, always check the number plate before getting into your Uber. Yeah. That's my favourite game because watching them on the little map on the Uber, they're a little bit behind, so you've got to spy the number plate. There it is. Why do they always have Priuses? Because they're fuel efficient.
Starting point is 00:04:21 What about a Nissan Leaf? Or a Honda thing. Whatever they are. Oh, my God, Honda should just call a Nissan Leaf? Or a Honda thing. Whatever they are. Oh my God, Honda should just call a car a thing. A Honda thing. You can imagine the marketing department's stoked, eh? They've got this great electric vehicle, and the guy on the radio's calling it a Honda thing.
Starting point is 00:04:37 What is that? No, because is it... Who's got the Volt? That's not... Is that an electric car? Honda Hybrid. Is the Pri electric car? Honda Hybrid. Is the Prius like the cool one? All the Uber drivers are like, well, I have to have the Prius.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Well, I think they're just cheaper and they're Toyotas, aren't they? So they last well. Right. There's a 2018 Honda that's a hybrid and it's called the Honda Clarity. Clarity. Runs half on gas, half on power. Clarity. It's already done. There's your jingle. And that's why you don't
Starting point is 00:05:13 work at an advertising agency. Yeah, that's true. Also, that's tragedy, not clarity. I know it is, but I was making it... You don't want to do a jingle a lot with tragedy. A parody. Right. Yeah, also you're parodying a tragedy song. It's like a song, but it's not the song.
Starting point is 00:05:29 It's parody. See, I parodied tragedy to explain parody. Nobody wants to buy a car that's associated with tragedy. They wouldn't have associated it with Abba and Good Times. Okay. We go to Mary's room. Is that Bee Gees? What?
Starting point is 00:05:44 Isn't it the Bee Gees? Get out. Tragedy! The feeling's gone. Oh, yeah, that's the unmistakable voice of Barry Gibb. Abba must have done a cover. Tell me, please, alright? I've been living a lie.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Well, no, yeah, tragedy. It's a form of drama based on human suffering or a, yeah, Bee Gees song. And Steps did it. That's right. What? ABBA, tragedy.
Starting point is 00:06:09 You know why you were saying ABBA? Because she did a couple of ABBA songs at the weekend. No, I've got a video right here of ABBA doing tragedy.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Well, who did it first? The Bee Gees. Oh, okay. The Bee Gees wrote it. All right. All right,
Starting point is 00:06:21 we go to Marysville now. And you said Steps did it, right? Yeah. That was actually half heartbeat, half tragedy. Alright. Alright, we go to Marysville now. And you said Steps did it, right? Yeah. That was actually half Heartbeat, half Trigger. Yeah. It was a mashup. It's a half-half song. Oh, okay, right. Those were big back in the day, weren't they? Anyway, yeah, they were. They were. Alright, moving on. Half a cover. It was when you could only
Starting point is 00:06:37 be bothered writing half a song. But you still got half the money, eh? Or did they get all the money? Good question. I don't know the financial splitting of the... Okay. Hey, let's delve into that another time. Okay. We go to Washington now, Washington State.
Starting point is 00:06:52 A Washington State patrol trooper got more than he bargained for when he tried to pull over a woman from Olympia for expired licence plates on her Prius. The trooper spotted the white hatchback Toyota Prius southbound on the I-5 on Wednesday evening. He turned on his emergency lights. The driver made no reasonable attempt to pull over. According to the arrest report,
Starting point is 00:07:15 she drove for about a mile, stopping at an intersection. That's when the trooper told her over the loudspeaker in his patrol car to get off the road. She stayed put. The trooper then approached the driver's side window and told her again to move off the road. She allegedly said she would not stop until she'd reached the Bank
Starting point is 00:07:33 of America parking lot. The trooper told the driver to pull over for a third time. She said, I will not. I drive a Prius. I am not pulling over there. What? That was her main reason. According to the report, he then told her a fourth time. She refused. Seeing the driver
Starting point is 00:07:51 would not cooperate, the trooper told her to step out of the vehicle. She said no, resisted and was... They tased an 87-year-old the other day for gardening with a knife in America. Why are this woman getting full warnings? Yeah, I know. I don't know. The driver told the trooper she would not pull over
Starting point is 00:08:08 because her tyres kept popping because her car is a Prius. According to her. That's not how tyres work, I don't think. Yeah, I don't know. But anyway, she's a very proud Prius driver. Didn't want to damage her Prius or stop for the police. Right. She's been arrested for failing
Starting point is 00:08:25 to obey instructions. And a few other things as well. Was she drunk? No. Feels like 42 and belligerent. Oh, yes. Nice use of the word belligerent. You know when mums get belligerent? Yeah. Not to the police though. No. My mum's
Starting point is 00:08:42 a little belligerent, but not to the police. To us. Full respect. To dad. No. My mum's a little belligerent, but not to the police. To us. She'd have full respect. To Dad. Yep. To people, but not to the police. The family. Yeah, just anybody apart from law enforcement officers.
Starting point is 00:08:55 I might have clickbaited you. Santa has not come out as bisexual, but biannual. Oh. You just said bi. Well, yeah, that's bi. Biannual, bisexual. Bicycle. Sure. Bannual. Oh. You just said bi. Well, yeah, that's bi. Bi-annual, bisexual, bi-cycle. Sure. Bilennial, what's that?
Starting point is 00:09:10 Papa Mo is annual. Bi-illennial. Is that a thing? That would be every second millennium. I don't know. I've never heard anyone say bi-illennial. Yeah. Sure.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Bilateral. Oh, yeah, what's that? No, that one. Both ways. So Papa Mo is annual. Is he biodegradable? Vaughan, I've got some that? No, that one. Both ways. So, Papa Moa's annual... Why is he biodegradable? Vaughan, I've got some bad news. Some serious news.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Papa Moa's annual Santa parade will now be every second year. Bi-annual. But Santa comes every year. I know. Try telling that to the kids. So, what, he just can't stop over on Papa Moa every year? Well, apparently crowd numbers have plateaued at the event, like the last wee while.
Starting point is 00:09:48 But you can't expect the numbers to keep increasing. It gets to the point, like, the Auckland Centre Parade, it is an amazing event, but unless you're there three hours early with a chair, you're going to be... Like, I had to hold a child on my shoulders for the entirety of the waiting and then the... Yeah, it's hard, isn't it? Yeah, it's
Starting point is 00:10:04 pretty... There's only so much room. So you're saying, yeah, better on my shoulders for the entirety of the waiting. Yeah, it's hard, isn't it? Yeah, it's pretty. There's only so much room. So you're saying it's better to go to these local ones? They reach a maximum. No, I'm just saying Santa Braids reach a maximum crowd, enjoyability factor, and then there's too many people there. Right. So they've got a plateau at some stage.
Starting point is 00:10:21 They're taking the year off, apparently. What? So it's not happening. But I'm guessing there'll be like the T off, apparently. Wow. So it's not happening. But I'm guessing there'll be like the Tauranga one. Yeah. There's probably a Mount Maunganui just down the road. Yeah, maybe. Someone say maybe that the Bay of Plenty has oversaturated the Santa parade market.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Well, I mean, you've got to think about it. It's a busy time of the year and he's got to make all the toys. Yes. And so for him to come up, you know, and do every single one. He's so busy. Yes, he is. Isn't he? And I think technically he'd come down to do it. Oh, come down.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Yeah, that's what I mean. So, yeah, it's not happening this year. So this year it's not happening. There was no warning, though. Well, they've just told you, Megan. It's three months away. It's three months warning. Okay. Ouch.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Do they need some funding? Do we need a fundraiser? Yeah, what is this? This sounds like, you know, when someone's like, I'm not coming. I'm not coming. Treat him mean, keep him clean. Yeah, and some people are like, oh no, come on, Megan. It won't be the same without you. But they don't really mean it. They're just, you know, doing
Starting point is 00:11:23 their part. You know what I mean? You know that person that's always like, I'm just sort of not coming. Oh, come on. Do they just want people to beg for it? Is that what they want?
Starting point is 00:11:32 Is there some attention fishing? Right. Did the Papamoa Santa Parade put up a Facebook status that was like, guys, huge news, can't tell you right now. And then a few days later
Starting point is 00:11:43 they put up another one. I'm not. I'm not coming. I can't. No. We're not having a Santa Parade this year. I can't. I can't tell you right now. And then a few days later, they put up another one. I'm not. I'm not coming. I can't. No. We're not having a Santa play this year. I can't. I can't come.
Starting point is 00:11:50 And everyone's like, oh, no, please. And they're like, oh, I don't want to. It's like someone worked really hard but felt underappreciated. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're like, I don't get enough appreciation for this. You don't appreciate what I do? Yeah. Because I'm worried when I say, oh, I don't want to go.
Starting point is 00:12:03 People are like thinking I'm doing that. But seriously, I just don't want to go, people are like, thinking I'm doing that, but seriously, I just don't want to go. You don't want to go, you don't like crowds and people. No, now you've just taken to being like,
Starting point is 00:12:11 people are like, yeah, you're going to be there? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You just don't go. What time is it? Oh, trauma best. Got kids things.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Have kids for no other reason than to get out of a corner. Yeah. F.E. Yeah. FEM. A lady is suing Facebook. Selena is her name. She's suing Facebook because her job at Facebook has led to her having PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Something that soldiers get. Yeah. Coming back from war. Yeah. She said she was exposed endlessly as a content manager to some of the most highly toxic and extremely disturbing images, live feeds, videos, and live stream broadcasts of graphic violence that anybody has to see.
Starting point is 00:13:00 So she's sitting at Facebook. Her job, I guess, is a moderator. So a content manager is better known as a moderator. If you flag something as inappropriate, her and her team look at it. Get sent it. And then they decide if it is bad for Facebook. To delete or not.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Okay, right. So you imagine every bad thing that's ever been reported on Facebook. There's some pretty grim live stream. You'd see some nude people too, wouldn't you? She was only there for nine months. Yep. It got to the point where she couldn't sleep. The insomnia, every time she shut her eyes,
Starting point is 00:13:35 she said she was confronted with another image. There was no like, I don't believe there was any specific training to deal with what she was about to see. And also like you'd need a certain kind of person for that job, wouldn't you? Yeah. Like, you couldn't just chuck anybody in that job.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Yeah. Like, you'd have to... But, I mean, even, like, I'd, like... Would you think you could do this job? Nah. No, no, no, God, no. Yeah, it'd be horrible, wouldn't it? If you were, like, especially, like,
Starting point is 00:13:57 a sensitive or empathetic person, like, they would haunt you every day, the stuff you'd see. But if you're taking on a job as a moderator, wouldn't you know that that's kind of what you're going to face? So she was employed by a staffing agency. So it's that like recruitment. And she started at Facebook's offices in June 2017.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Okay. And she was there for nine months. And she said now her PTSD symptoms, and this has been backed up by doctors, if she touches a computer mouse, enters a cold building, watches television and sees anything violent on the screen, hears loud noises or is frightened, it can trigger it. Wow.
Starting point is 00:14:35 She just said it was endless. She was sat there for her entire workday being bombarded with horrendously violent, graphic, abusive videos and pictures. And I never even thought about that. Yeah, that someone has to look at all of those. Yeah. If you think about like even in New Zealand, the censors office, they have to watch everything that goes on screens in New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:14:59 So, I mean, you wouldn't, you'd see some stuff. And it's not only that, isn't it? Even if the censors office, if movies are going to be released here, like in cinemas, they have to give it a local rating. Is that right? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You have to watch it. But even if something's coming into the country to go on sale,
Starting point is 00:15:15 like pornographic DVDs, they have to watch them all. They can't just fast forward to 20 minutes in. Get past all the boring storyline. They have to watch the entire storyline. They have to watch. They have to watch the entire thing. Okay. Imagine that. How do you go out for drinks with your family after that?
Starting point is 00:15:32 Do you have to watch it? La la la. With your workmate next to you? Yeah, I know. You already have a solo viewing booth. Like are you allowed to play with yourself at work? No, I don't know. But also, you know when something's fun,
Starting point is 00:15:44 but then you do it for a job every day, it's not fun anymore? That's because they say find something you enjoy and you'll never work a day in your life, but that's not true. Find something you enjoy and you'll pretty soon – to do as a job and pretty soon you'll hate it. Yeah. Wow. It's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Yeah. So, yeah, she's suing Facebook for not appropriately training, warning or anything. Pins and food seems to be 2018 Salt Bae, doesn't it? I mean, it's not as fun as Salt Bae. I just tried to think of a meme that involved food and that was all I could come up with. So everyone's going crazy, pins.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Somebody actually was Snapchatting me yesterday. They went to the supermarket, saw a punnet of strawberries from Australia. I took it home and was cutting every one of them open. Didn't find any pins. So I thought they'd pulled the Australian strawberries. No, they haven't. They're grown in Australia, imported from Australia. I'm okay with it because I don't like seeing that picture
Starting point is 00:16:46 of all the strawberries being dumped. Wasted. I'm like, I can cut my strawberries up. And we talked about the options of jam. The needle would come out of the jam in the jamming process. Well, a woman from Whanganui posted on Facebook, also on McDonald's Facebook, that she just found a pin in her fries on Friday.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Oh, here we go. Like slid into a fry. Slid into the fry, yeah. Like people slide into the DMs, this pin slid right into the fry. Put it on their Facebook, put it on McDonald's Facebook page, saying I've just found this pin in my fries with a photo,
Starting point is 00:17:18 in her own Facebook page. People immediately saying, you're taking the mick, you just want some free mackers well McDonald's immediately have taken this very seriously and rightly so said heck
Starting point is 00:17:31 we need to get the police involved so got the police involved the police made contact with this person whose name by the way has been public since day dot I'm not going to say the name yeah
Starting point is 00:17:42 and so the police popped around to the house with some questions and going to say the name. Yeah. And so the police pop around to the house with some questions and wanting to see the Happy Meal, because that thing was in a Happy Meal apparently too, in question, and then begin a light search of the house and find a 20-pack of pins
Starting point is 00:17:56 with only 19 pins in the pack of pins and they're exactly the same pins as the one that was in the fries. Oh, right. Okay, so that didn't take long to solve? No, that was a pretty open and shut situation. Yeah. But in the meantime, they dragged Macca's name through the mud.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Yes. And they don't need that at this time. Yeah. And they're not specifically saying the person who reported it put it in there, but someone in the household did. Right. So someone's kid's getting a smack on the ass. But yeah, so it was over. it was over before it really began.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Right. Because yeah, by the time this kind of made headlines, big national headlines here in New Zealand, it had already been solved. Not before, however, it made it to Australian websites and here, the Daily Mail in the UK. Oh, great. Have reported it, but have all updated their stories to say that it was put there. What does that headline say? Accidentally put it there. Horace McDonald's customer finds a needle in her fries, but she accidentally put it there herself.
Starting point is 00:18:58 And then accidentally complained? So this story says that the pin must have been on the table and she tipped the fries out for everybody to share and the pin was amongst the... The one pin out of the pack of 20 that was on her plate. What was she hoping to gain here? Like another Happy Meal or something? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:18 If it was an honest mistake, nothing. I'm not sure. So was it an honest mistake? She's claiming it was an honest mistake. Right. But everybody else is like, yeah, okay.? She's claiming it was an honest mistake. Right. But everybody else is like, yeah, okay. We've all tried it on for a Sunday, haven't we?
Starting point is 00:19:31 For some free chippies. Yeah, my chips, I generally just go with my chips are cold. And they don't really care enough to question too much about that. They'll just give you another chips. Even if there's only like eight chips left in the bottom of the large container, they'll probably give you another chips for nothing. It's not the time to be trying this kind of thing on, is it? No. It's not funny.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Well, do you remember the pills on Sunday? Yeah. There was someone trying that on as well. Yeah. And some kids nearly ate those. There was more to that than meets the eye, that whole situation, as that unfolded. Poor Mac is away. I think they're all
Starting point is 00:20:06 I mean, they'll, I don't know, but like, yeah, just. What is wrong with people? Ronald's just sitting at home
Starting point is 00:20:12 being like, I'm just, like, what? Why are they doing this to us, Grimace? Why?
Starting point is 00:20:18 And Grimace is like, no, no, no, no. Is that how Grimace talks? I remember Grimace being quite a wobbly
Starting point is 00:20:24 sort of voice. You try your best. People just keep messing with you. Today's top six deals with the fact that Neve Ardern. Where does the gayford go? Excuse me, that's wildly ill-prepared of me. She got her own tag at the UN, and the photo was her wrapped up with the green beanie.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Super cute. She's got a lanyard. Yeah. A UN lanyard. With her name on it. And she got to watch her mother address the Nelson Mandela Peace Summit at the United Nations General Assembly. So cool.
Starting point is 00:21:03 But, as any parent will know, taking a baby that age anywhere is dangerous. And it is like a game of Minesweeper on a computer where you've got to click and say, there's no mines here. And then you click it and the game's over because there was a mine. Niamh Arden Gayford.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Niamh Te Aroha Arden Gayford. Right. Thank you very much for that. So the top six things that every parent was waiting to happen at the UN General Assembly. Oh, because I was waiting for like a wah or a bleh. Yeah, well, you're ruining two of the six that I've got,
Starting point is 00:21:35 so if you could shut your mouth, that would be really great commentary as we go. Number six, a cute-sounding sneeze that just projects snot all over the place. Like, where did all the snot come from? Because it's all like, and everyone's like, and then they look, and the baby's just like a slime monster. And it's not all over it.
Starting point is 00:21:53 And it's all over Angela Merkel's chair. Yeah. All over. Whoever's sitting in front, you're like, give it a wipe. It's way too late. Number five on the list of the top six things that every parent was waiting to happen at the UN General Assembly. For the baby to just disappear.
Starting point is 00:22:08 She might be a tad on the young side to pull this classic, but if you've had kids and they start moving, one minute your kid's right there, not moving. Maybe even asleep. And then you blink and they've disappeared. Usually they're just behind a curtain or the other side of the couch or something, but in your mind mind they're gone forever
Starting point is 00:22:25 and it could be pulling on the cords under the table at the un yeah pulling on that someone's mid speech and their microphones just get disconnected number four on the list of the top six things that every parent was waiting to happen at the un general assembly with baby neve there and number four grabbing a handful of skin or facial hair. Because Clark's got a beard at present and there's something about the grip of a baby. They can just get right and they just get it. And some of the older members of the UN have that gobbly turkey neck thing. Imagine a baby getting a handful, again, of Angela Merkel's.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Gobbly turkey. Chin under chin. Just a handful of that. Or even better, Trump's hair. Oh, yeah. That would have been pretty good. Because babies don't let go of that. They just do Just a handful of that. Or even better, Trump's hair. Oh, yeah. That would have been pretty good. Because babies don't let go of that. They just do not let go of hair.
Starting point is 00:23:09 They can hold on. I'd imagine Trump being quite a scary proposition for a baby up close. Yeah, and its best defence is just grab and pull. Number three on the list of the top six things every parent was waiting to happen at the UN General Assembly. Projectile vomit for no reason at all of a food that they haven't eaten for a week. Where'd that come from? We haven't eaten pumpkin for
Starting point is 00:23:29 ages. Corn. I was going to say, even as an adult, there's always corn, eh? Or a little bit of carrot. No, I don't eat kernels of corn. How's that a vomit? Number two on the list of the top six things every parent was waiting to happen with baby N Neve at the UN General Assembly
Starting point is 00:23:46 burst into an uncontrollable fit of screaming and crying where there's no stopping her and Clark has to do that thing where he's like, excuse me, I'll just take her outside. And they go out into the hallway but you can still hear them going bananas in the hallway. Yeah, just that. Just...
Starting point is 00:23:59 And the number one thing every parent was waiting for to happen at the UN General Assembly, punami. Straight up the back. It sounds like... And then you just hear it. It's all up the back. It's everywhere. And you've got no choice but to hold your child under the armpits
Starting point is 00:24:21 like they're contaminated and walk them somewhere where you can straight up hose them down. That is today's top six. We've spoken about this TV show on Netflix before, Explained. Little short, they're like 18, 20 minute long little docos on different topics and it kind of
Starting point is 00:24:38 goes through and explains how they came to be. Like a subject for dummies. It's awesome and it just goes into detail of one specific. I mean, there's podcasts and stuff that do this. Get one topic and explore it. But I like visuals sometimes. Yeah, and the visuals on this are really cool.
Starting point is 00:24:54 Really well done. The animations and stuff are cool. And there's such a wide variety of topics so you can decide what you're feeling at the time. Now, we went to watch one, my husband and I, last night, and there was a few that have been watched already that we were looking at, and I said,
Starting point is 00:25:12 oh, I actually don't remember watching the female orgasm. That was the one, do you remember I said I was, because I watched, just watched them at the gym, and that was the one that I watched at the gym, and it had the diagram. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:26 I know, because it came up at the gym for me, and I was like, no, I know that's a bad idea. Yeah, publicly, I don't know about watching it publicly. I watched it in public, but no one else was there. Yeah. Wait, that sounds dodgy. I was just in the gym, and no one else was there, and I watched it.
Starting point is 00:25:38 But even then, I was like, oh, God, I hope no one's behind me. Yeah, I had to shield the screen a lot. It wasn't the scientific diagrams that worried me. It was the little cut-betweens of people experiencing them. Right. Yeah, I had to shield the screen a lot. It wasn't the scientific diagrams that worried me. It was the little cut-betweens of people experiencing them. Right. Yeah, sure. So that's when he looked a bit sheepish, and I thought he was just going to say,
Starting point is 00:25:52 oh, I watched at home by myself. Weird, but like, okay. But he said, so you remember when my dad and I went to Pink? That means that my husband and my mum were at home. That's right. I remember you saying that they were hanging out. Yeah. So he said, oh, I thought of this Explained
Starting point is 00:26:10 program because it was quick and interesting. I thought we could find topics that we both liked. And so they watched one. You know how Netflix rolls through to the next episode? So that you just keep watching. So it went through to the female orgasm is the next episode.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Why did you turn it off? He's your mum. Your mum probably loved it. No one wants to be the awkward person that turns it off. I'd straight up be like, I can't watch this with you. So they apparently both sat there awkwardly and he said, I literally didn't know what to do. So can you imagine the two of them sitting on the couch
Starting point is 00:26:45 while this is 18 minutes of... Your parents are both people that would fill an awkward silence with the chat though. Yeah. Your mum would probably have been like, yep, that's right actually. That's right. Yep, that's right. That's also right.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Get it girl. He probably would have felt a bit more at ease watching it with my mum than his mum. Because my mum, yeah, she's like a bit loose. She's like, la la, makes jokes and stuff. Yeah. But still, do you want to be watching that with your mother-in-law? Not really.
Starting point is 00:27:13 You're right. Rather mother-in-law than actual mother. Yeah. Yeah, because you remember when you were a kid and boobies came on, you're all watching a movie together. You'd be like like don't look. I've told you this before I went to see
Starting point is 00:27:26 Team America with my parents and you know how there's a puppet scene? I was like sitting beside my dad and yeah during the puppet
Starting point is 00:27:35 love making scene What did you go to Team America with your parents for? I don't know if I knew what I was in store for and Wolf of Wall Street. Good lord.
Starting point is 00:27:42 You went to Wolf of Wall Street with your parents? Yeah. I haven't learned. It's so it's still awkward. You don't know what to do with yourself. But you're an adult Wolf of Wall Street. Good Lord. You went to Wolf of Wall Street with your parents? Yeah. You haven't learned. It's still awkward. You don't know what to do with yourself. But you're an adult. Wolf of Wall Street was like four years ago.
Starting point is 00:27:52 I know. But it's still awkward in the sexy bits. So Fletch means why did you go to the movies with your parents four years ago? Oh, is that what you mean? Yeah, because like if you... I always take my parents to the movies. But you don't want it
Starting point is 00:28:06 to be awkward. Don't go to a movie like that. Go to a nice, like a rom-com or something. Oh no, Dad won't go to a rom-com. That's rubbish. Dad won't go to a rom-com.
Starting point is 00:28:14 He just wants... But then yeah, you just sit there. ...with our sex and violence on at the cinema side before going and might as well make it worth our time.
Starting point is 00:28:19 But you don't want to shuffle because you don't want to show that you're awkward so you just keep deadly still and you're suddenly very aware of everything that's happening around you. And they probably don't even care, Megan. They're probably not even thinking about it. Do they?
Starting point is 00:28:30 Oh, no. Even you're watching a 20-minute documentary going into the depths of the female orgasm. I'm imagining they're thinking about it. Oh, okay. That, yeah. They're thinking about who they're watching it with. Well, I thought it would be quite funny to hear from people who have been in a similar scenario.
Starting point is 00:28:47 So what have you ended up watching with your parents or even like your parents-in-law? Right. What have you watched with them that was awkward? I'd say people would definitely have stories growing up when there was like a scene in a movie that came on and maybe it got really super awkward. Especially if you ask questions
Starting point is 00:29:03 because you weren't sure what was happening. I remember being at the beach on our summer holiday and my brother was watching Boogie Nights. Now, Boogie Nights is quite an intense film. Yeah. Raunchy. Raunchy. Wasn't there a fake Mark Wahlberg penis?
Starting point is 00:29:18 There was, yes. Really? Yeah, there was. And there was lots of breasts and sex scenes and stuff. Well, it's about a porn star. And I remember my brother was watching it when we got home from the beach. And he was just watching it in the lounge, just watching it. And my parents were like, what are you watching?
Starting point is 00:29:33 He's like, Boogie Nights. And I'm like, I don't know if that's appropriate. And he's like, well, I'm halfway through. I'm not stopping. And then, like, my auntie and uncle arrived. And then, like, some friends that were there arrived. And my brother's like, well, I'm not stopping it because I'm halfway through it. I'm not stopping watching it.
Starting point is 00:29:47 And everyone's like awkwardly like in the kitchen being like, oh, why is this teenager watching this show? We're all here. He should stop. And he was like, no, I'm not stopping. And then later on I was like, why didn't you stop? He's like, well, it would have been way more awkward if I'd stopped. It would have made me look guilty.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Like I had something to be embarrassed about. I was like, no, it was weird that we were all huddled in the kitchen while you were watching Mark Wahlberg's dong flying around on the screen. And everyone's like, what's your son watching? What's he watching that for? Yeah, that's weird. Yeah, and then he just decided his way of tackling the awkwardness was going to be to not stop watching it.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Okay, 0800 dials at M, text us 9696. What awkward program or movie did you watch with your parents? Talking awkward things you watched with your parents after my husband watched an Explained episode on the female O with my mum. Yeah. So that was awkward. But your mum didn't care, did she?
Starting point is 00:30:36 Not really. Awkward for him, though. Mr. Toyboy. Yeah. Some text messages in on what you've watched with your parents that turned out to be an awkward watch. My mother and I both love ballet. So when Black Swan came out, we were like,
Starting point is 00:30:50 wonderful, a ballet movie, finally. Yeah. We can watch it together. I had absolutely no idea how awkward that watch was going to be. I can't remember what's awkward in that. Is there... Mute the microphone for a minute. Oh, no, I remember. I can't remember what's awkward in that. Is there... Mute the microphones for a minute.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Oh, no, I remember. I remember. I remember. Okay, Vaughan's done a charades. I've blocked a lot of things. Just quick charades. Don't even do that again, by the way. Just did it again.
Starting point is 00:31:18 I actually don't even know why we needed to mute the microphone for charades. The idea of charades is they're silent. Yeah, Jackie, what did you end up watching? I'm a mother myself, so it wasn't with my parents, but I had Christmas last year. We started watching Love Actually. Oh, yes. And I'd forgotten about the porn stars in it.
Starting point is 00:31:35 And so sitting there with my 10- and 12-year-old and some of the things that suddenly started happening, I'm going, oh, how do you explain this to the children? Whoopsies. People always forget about the porn stars. Because it's such a sweet Christmas movie and then, yeah. What's his name? Martin.
Starting point is 00:31:50 It's the guy off The Office. Freeman. Martin Freeman's in it. Yeah. He's one of them. It's just so weird. You totally always forget about the porn stars in love, actually. They're kind of sweet porn stars.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Like, you know. Yeah, they're really nice. Spoiler alert. They find love in the end. All right. Some text messages. Thanks, you're cool, Jackie. Somebody said, my mother-in-law and I decided to go to the movies
Starting point is 00:32:11 when my husband and I had just started dating. Again, another black swan situation. A lovely movie about ballet, we thought. I never wanted the ground to open up and swallow me more than when Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis started getting it on. We joke about it now, but in the moment, I was mortified. It was a real, that's a real keystone part of a
Starting point is 00:32:31 mother-in-law, because you know, some mother-in-laws you hear about, the monster mother-in-laws, could make that horrible that you dragged them along and put the blame on you and everything. I went to see Boogie Nights at the cinema with my dad, step-mom, step-mom's best mate and step-grandmother.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Okay. We assumed it was something along the lines of Saturday Night Fever, the John Travolta classic. I was 18. I felt like I needed to sink into the seat at some point. I just kept my eyes straight. I didn't deviate from the screen whatsoever. And then afterwards, we never talked about the movie.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Never again. I was taken to see American Beauty when I was quite young with my mum. Oh, that's weird. Yeah, the whole thing was awful. Aside from the inappropriate Kevin Spacey sexy stuff, which is even more inappropriate now, it was the first time I'd heard and learned
Starting point is 00:33:18 what the C word was, which was rather awkward. My nana and I went to London a few years ago. I love musical theatre and I wanted to see the Book of Mormon. I heard it was hilarious, so along we went. We sat down and I remembered it was written by the same people that wrote South Park. And you were like, uh-oh. I've never seen the Book of Mormon.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I would love to see it, though, because I hear great things. But there is a song about a guy having maggots in his scrotum. Nana, however, loved it and she's been three times since. Oh, go Nan. Yeah, so it might have been awkward at the time. Nana's loose. Yeah. I watched Trainwreck, the Amy Schumer movie,
Starting point is 00:33:59 with my husband's granddad. Okay. Years later, he brought it up as the most awkward moment of his life. Oh, great. His granddad's seen some things of that's the most,
Starting point is 00:34:11 and that happens to be the most awkward moment of his life. So this is also doubling as a nice list of things not to watch with parents. Yeah. And also grandparents.
Starting point is 00:34:20 FVM, the podcast. I want to talk now about a good thing that could revolutionise Snapchat, for me at least, because I've drifted away from Snapchat a little bit. Yeah, I only open it once every couple of days. I feel like it picked up a little bit after they changed. Because you remember they changed and everyone was just like,
Starting point is 00:34:38 this sucks now. Oh, because you couldn't see your friend's story easily. You couldn't see your friend's story easily. But now they've kind of changed it back a little bit. Yeah. Well, this is your friend's story easily, but now they've kind of changed it back a little bit. Yeah. Well, this is a new thing on Snapchat where you can point your camera, like just point the Snapchat app at something you like.
Starting point is 00:34:54 So say you're in the street and someone's got some cool shoes on. You can point the... Borderline. Borderline what? Creepy. Yeah, pointing a camera at somebody because you like their shoes. I mean, don't get caught or ask them. Wouldn't it just be better to say, hey, I love your shoes.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Whereabouts are they from? No, you don't want to talk to people as established yesterday on the show, unless you're Megan. No, yesterday we were saying we should talk to people. So you can point your camera on Snapchat at something you like, a product, and it will pop up using Amazon. They will search, the camera will search for the product in Amazon and pop up so you can buy it.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Is this a thing now or are they testing it? They're testing it. It's a good idea. It is a good idea. So you can do it with a barcode. You can scan a barcode or you can scan a physical product. Because a lot of people don't know you can Shazam songs on Snapchat.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Yeah, you can do that. Just open the camera, hold it down, listen to the music. Yeah. What about, I mean that. Just open the camera, hold it down, listen to the music. Yeah. What about, I mean, is this using the same sort of technology that the app that came out for Multilanguage Week used? You know, you just lined up and took a photo of something and it kind of deciphered what it was.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Because they've got a big database of items. Yeah, that was with Google though. I don't imagine they've got the same technology. Yeah. So they're going to be rolling it out slowly, but they wanted to announce it to everyone at the same time. So it doesn't seem like it's actually that far away while they're in the testing phase. Actually pretty cool because sometimes you do,
Starting point is 00:36:14 like shoes is a good example. You see someone's shoes and you're like, those are so cool, but they look way better on me. Yes, they take a creepy photo of people's feet in public. Would it work for screenshots? No. I don't know. Because, like, you see stuff online of someone wearing something,
Starting point is 00:36:30 say, on Instagram, and if they haven't tagged it, you're like, oh, I wonder where that's from. But you could take a photo of that. Yeah, you could take a photo of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That might work. This is great. Great news.
Starting point is 00:36:41 And then you go through to the website and you see that they're, like, $500. And you're like, no. Not today. I don't really dig clothes. Well, I wear them. I never seen anything like that. I bet the fashion's not your jam. Nah, it's not. I've never seen someone wearing something that I've so badly thought I need that.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Have you not? Nah. Not that I can think of. I might think, oh, that's kind of cool. Well, let's put it In terms of like Barbecue Oh yeah barbecue Have you ever seen
Starting point is 00:37:08 Someone's barbecue I've seen barbecues Yeah and I'm like Where What kind of barbecue is that But then most of the time It's quite obvious Yeah
Starting point is 00:37:15 Yeah But that's like Like for Megan That's her barbecues So this would bring up Like if say If it's this type of shoes And you take a photo
Starting point is 00:37:22 Would it also bring up The cheapest Or just Amazon or just Amazon? Probably just Amazon. No, but then I would say once you get it through Amazon, you can get like a benchmark of price. You can get product codes and then you can do your own searching. Send it to me and I'll find it for you.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Yeah, right. Okay. Yeah. I like what you're thinking. I like where your head's at. We asked because we found out that the dollar mixture was going to be a thing of the past at some stage, because if you're pre-packaging lollies, you've got to have the ingredients on the outside, the nutritional information.
Starting point is 00:37:53 I mean, we all know there's sugar in it and we shouldn't be eating too many of them, but it's not stopping people. So we decided we could find a loophole. We could give them away. Technically, we're not selling them. Thus, you can't tell us what to do. So we asked, if we were to make the ultimate dollar mixture, what would be the best lollies to put in it? Megan's just breathing them in.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I'm huffing. Fifth place was a contentious one. We had a couple of polls running in different places. We had a lot of lollies. Every lolly you could imagine, pretty much. Yeah, Kiwi classic. Somebody actually messaged in saying they couldn't believe the... Remember, I struggle to remember that.
Starting point is 00:38:31 They were the same kind of lolly as a fizzing lolly, but they were printed and they had New Zealand money stamped on the outside. Do you remember those? Yes, or the ones that had the love hearts. Remember those? Oh, those are the Valentine's Day candies. Little words. But those are Valentine's Day candies. Little words.
Starting point is 00:38:45 But those are Valentine's Day specific. No, they're not. Those are holiday specific. Those are year round. They used to be year round. I don't remember these money ones you're talking about. No, they used to have like money. They're really old and you can still get them.
Starting point is 00:38:56 No, they are old because they had one and two cent pieces. And five cent pieces. Can you still get them? But they're fizzy. Apparently. Yeah, they sent me a link to getting a 200-gram bag of them. No, they weren't fizzy. They were like a smokery, powdery, one of those powdery chalky lolly.
Starting point is 00:39:11 But yum, because it was a lolly. Yeah. But yuck, described as powdery and chalkery. Yeah. But anyway, fifth place was the top four were kind of universally agreed upon across the polls we were running. Fifth place, however, between the milk bottles and the rainbow strips
Starting point is 00:39:26 was a hard one. And we ran an Instagram poll and winning with 58% and thus taking out place number five in the Fletch Fawn Omega Ultimate $1 Mixture is the rainbow strip. Hey look, I'm an Instagram bro-ter.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Yeah, if you put the rainbow strip in your mouth and open your mouth, you look like that. Put the tongue away. Open it. you put the rainbow strip in your mouth and open your mouth you look like that. Put the tongue away. Open it. I have to hold the lolly. Yeah, that looks better.
Starting point is 00:39:51 That looks a bit like that filter. Where you vomited a rainbow. No filter. Filter. Filters in real life. Good, that's exactly how it works. I mean, people listening got no idea what...
Starting point is 00:40:04 They're just hearing you make stupid noises. Yeah, but how's that rainbow strip? So yum. Deserving of its fifth place on the lolly? Way better than a milk bottle. Way better than a milk bottle. I like milk bottles. Do you know what?
Starting point is 00:40:13 I'd probably go for a rainbow strip just because it's bigger. You get more lolly. You get more. That's a great way to think about lollies. There's more in my mouth right now. That's a very Kiwi way. So in fourth place, the spinning top. I'm so upset about that.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Fletch loves these. I think it was you were the only one that really. If I get pick and mix lollies at the supermarket, I'll buy a huge bag of those. Those will be most of my bag. I love those. That says a lot about you. Really?
Starting point is 00:40:36 They're just so lame. Really old, plain old milk bottle over there. You wanted milk bottles. Those are like hard and then marshmallow on the inside. It's weird. Oh, yeah. No good. That's good.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Strawberries, jelly strawberries are in third place. Oh, that's lazy, isn't it? They've got lazy with these. The green's halfway down the side. The green jelly was always the stalk
Starting point is 00:40:56 of the strawberry. It's the worst that's happening to strawberries at the moment, Vaughn. A misshapen lolly. Very true. Those are needleless strawberries. Then another fruit, this time a stone fruit, peaches and cream. And at number two, they've really toned down the amount of cream in a peaches and cream.
Starting point is 00:41:11 To me, I cannot believe the peaches and cream was that high up there. I know. And that popular. Crazy. It's not a top tier lolly for me. I can't even believe it's top five, to be honest. And the number one place is the sour coke bottle. Or cola bottles, I think they have to call them to get around copyright issues. But yeah, it's got a to be honest. And the number one place is the sour coke bottle. Yes. Or cola bottles
Starting point is 00:41:25 I think they have to call them to get around copyright issues. But yeah, it's got a cola flavour to it. It's covered in sugary stuff and that's the number one.
Starting point is 00:41:33 So the five lollies, those are the five lollies going in our ultimate $1 mixture. Oh yeah, yuck. I just had a peaches and cream.
Starting point is 00:41:39 Why did we put that in there? You like spinning tops. No one's listening to what you have to say. You shush. I tried peaches and cream I haven't had one for years and I had the fondest memories of them. What's listening to you? You like spinning tops. No one's listening to what you have to say. You sure like spinning tops? I try peaches and cream. I haven't had one for years. I had the fondest memories of them.
Starting point is 00:41:50 We'll just all sit here and wait while you two chew lollies. What's your fondest memory of eating a peaches and cream lolly? No, maybe it just meant I had fond memories. I remember the day. The day Dad got out of jail, he brought home a bag of peaches and cream lollies where he said, welcome home, Father. He said, well, I won't embezzle money off that company again. And we all chortled and ate peaches and cream.
Starting point is 00:42:13 No, they yuck too. What? They are yuck, hey. Why do we put them in? Yuck. Because people vote. I think that's the bottom half of that, the cream part. There's your milk bottle.
Starting point is 00:42:23 This is a problem when you ask people to vote. Like, we nearly had that disgusting flag because half the country are like idiots. Like, well, was it Winston Churchill, Britain's World War II leader, that famously said the quickest way to talk yourself out of democracy being a good idea is chat to any voter. Well, the second most popular lolly,
Starting point is 00:42:41 so a few people voted for that, but you just called them idiots. I think maybe like me, you misremembered them though. Maybe peaches and cream is one of those ones you remember nostalgically. No, peaches is like sweet and tangy and yummy. No. Anyway, it's a good mixture and we're going to give things out. I think we've just slagged off three.
Starting point is 00:42:58 How many more have you got in there? We've just slagged off every one of them in some way apart from Coke bottles. Cola bottles. Cola bottles. Thank you. We don't need a legal. No, but we've made our ultimate $1 mixture. What are we doing with them now? One of them in some way apart from Coke bottles. Cola bottles. Cola bottles. Sour cola bottles. We don't need a legal. No, but we've made our ultimate $1 mix.
Starting point is 00:43:08 What are we doing with them now? We're going to hand them out. Black Thunders around the country. Yeah. On Friday. On Friday. Next couple of days. Yep.
Starting point is 00:43:16 If you see them around with the little white bags. Yep. A little ask for a baggie. Yeah. So I got a baggie. Just be careful who you ask for a baggie though. Make sure they are the Black Thunders. Not Black Power. Different baggie. Yeah. So I got a baggie. Just be careful who you ask for a baggie though. Make sure they're black thunders not black power.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Different baggies. Oh, they don't hand out movie tickets and food vouchers. No, no, no, no. I don't know if they park up in like supermarket car parks
Starting point is 00:43:37 and put flags up, do they? I don't think so, no. Might be a good recruitment job. So this is your car, Bridget. You've named your car, Bridget. Yeah've named your car, Bridget. Yeah. Little Silver.
Starting point is 00:43:47 What is it? A Mazda. No, no. Toyota Corolla. Little Corolla. Can't go wrong with a Toyota Corolla. And she has been so good to me apart from the amount of times
Starting point is 00:43:55 I've had to like fix her up before I get a whop. Like we said, can't go wrong with a Corolla. Cheap fix. I love my wee Bridgie. Well, you used to. R.I.P. Bridgie. R.I.P. So set the scene. You Corolla. Cheap fix. I love my wee Bridgie. Well, you used to. R.I.P. Bridgie.
Starting point is 00:44:06 R.I.P. So set the scene. You're stopped. You're parked. No, so just quickly going back. I had pulled over because I was going up this road and there was a car accident that had just happened at like an intersection.
Starting point is 00:44:19 And I pulled down my window. I was like, are you guys okay? And this man was like, yeah, yeah, it's all good. So I shut my window and came back onto the road and was slowing down to a stop sign when this guy came screaming around the corner and just went boomf right into the front of my car. So driving like a lunatic.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Driving like a lunatic. And in my head, I was like, I saw him. I looked into his eyes and I was like, oh, this is going to be so much. Admin had to get out and talk to him, blah, blah, blah. But he just, like, oh, this is going to be so much. Admin had to get out and talk to him, blah, blah, blah. Yeah. But he just, like, he shunted me back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:48 And then just turned, crazy eyes, turned and went flying off down the hill. Like, crazy eyes. Like, completely just drove away. I was like, is he on something? Right, that's sort of crazy eyes. Yeah. And so then I, like, was sort of shocked, wound down my window, and this lovely couple were like, are you okay?
Starting point is 00:45:09 I was like, did you, like, did anyone see that? Like, what happened? So he wasn't just turning around the corner? Was he, like, did he come right? He was turning around the corner, but he came over onto my side of the road. Cut the corner. So he was too fast? Yeah, he was going too fast, and he was, like, just cutting the corner around.
Starting point is 00:45:24 He obviously didn't realise how small the street was and that there would be someone else on the other side. But the fact that he just like didn't even... Well, yeah, accidents happen. Yeah, yeah. But then you stop and you sort out your responsibilities as an adult and a functioning member of society. You exchange details of insurance and such.
Starting point is 00:45:43 But he obviously knew that he was in the wrong and I wouldn't be surprised if like he didn't want to be stopped or have anyone come and talk to him. Right. So did the other people see him? Yeah, so I was so lucky. There was a lovely man who I just stopped and asked if they were okay. He was like, I've got the number plate.
Starting point is 00:46:00 A young school boy in a school uniform. I've got the number plate. Like came and ran up to me. And then also this lovely couple that was standing on the side of the road just like stayed there and waited and like took photos and helped me. Did they see him?
Starting point is 00:46:13 Did they see him? No, they didn't see, oh yes, because when we called another lady who was on the same, on the way to the same gym class as me, Mr. Gym Class, sorry. She got, she said that she, they thought that he was in his 40s. I thought he was in his 30s. they thought that he was in his 40s.
Starting point is 00:46:26 I thought he was in his 30s. She thought that he was in his 20s. So it was kind of a bit of a, we didn't know. Right, okay. Yeah, a few people saw him. But did he look upset about what had just happened? No, so no, the man said that he was laughing as he drove past him.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Oh, so he hit you? Yeah, he was laughing on the way down the street. I'm so surprised that he even managed to get anywhere because you saw what my car looked like. What part of his car hit your car? His front right. Right, so not, so it was on my driver's side and it was on his not, oh no, on his driver's side.
Starting point is 00:46:55 It was on his driver's side as well. What an a-hole. Yeah, so my door was like stuck. I had to like really yank it to try and get out. And obviously I was just like a bit shaky and like, what's happening? So anyway, we called the police and got the police to,
Starting point is 00:47:07 we were like, come and, you know, sort this out and stuff. And then Ali, my flatmate came and her mum came and sat in the car with me and helped me. And the police didn't arrive for like over an hour. And I was messaging you guys at this time. I was like, well, what happened?
Starting point is 00:47:21 Happy Tuesday. And then the police didn't arrive so I called them and they were like oh we're really sorry but they should have told you on the phone that we don't actually
Starting point is 00:47:30 because I called the local police station and obviously the dispatch was 111 that they don't actually arrive at like accidents where not
Starting point is 00:47:39 where someone hasn't been yeah hurt yeah right so they're like go to the police station I was like okay so I went to the police station.
Starting point is 00:47:45 And then the woman at the police station said that she couldn't help me either and that it would be a waste of my time and her time if I were to file a report. She said that? Yeah. But you had to file a report for insurance. No, because I've, well, I already had like said it to them, but I've just said it over the phone. They gave me a police, like a number. I thought you had to get like a, oh, right. So you did get a number. I did get a number, but I've just said it over the phone. They gave me a police, like, a number.
Starting point is 00:48:05 I thought you had to get, like, a... Oh, right, so you did get a number. I did get a number, but I didn't have to sit there and write everything down. But you obviously, beyond your own reporting for insurance, you're worried about the guy who just literally hit and run someone. 100%.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Like, I was nervous. I was scared that... Because the couple that were waiting across the road, she had to pull her husband back because she was worried that he was going to come around and hit him. And he was laughing. Yeah, and he was laughing. And I said, I was like, look, he looked a bit crazy.
Starting point is 00:48:32 And the woman at the police station said, everyone can look a bit crazy. So there's nothing the police can do, even though you've got the number plate. That seems odd. Yeah, and she's like, all you want is your money for insurance, right? And I was like, well, kind of want to get this guy. But also I don't want to
Starting point is 00:48:48 pay the excess because it's got nothing to do with me. It's not my fault. Yeah. And they're like, well, that's just what it's like owning a car, really. So you have to pay excess and then you have to buy a new car because it's written off. Was this woman just like, she wasn't a police officer, she was like... She was just at the...
Starting point is 00:49:03 I mean, I don't want to have a go at her, but I felt like she wanted to get home. Like it was 7.30 at night. I was obviously like fine, like I'd been a bit like shaken and stuff, but I wasn't injured, so. You need to get someone like this. Yeah, it would be different if the person had stopped.
Starting point is 00:49:22 You know, you wouldn't be too worried as long as you had your number for your insurance. But if they've driven off and driving maniacally, cutting corners and speeding, you're kind of a bit worried about what they can do in the future more than the damage to your car. So is it true that the insurance company with the number plate will try and get hold of this person, but unless they accept that they did it? Yeah, it's an insurance company.
Starting point is 00:49:43 What are they going to do, like demand that this person? Yeah, they can it. Yeah, it's an insurance company. What are they going to do? Like, demand that this person... Yeah, they can just deny it, right? And then they don't have to give any... But then their car would surely... Oh, I don't know how he drove off. How did you remember the number plate? Because I'd just be, like, too freaked out to even think about that. All I remember was his crazy eyes and the colour of his car was white.
Starting point is 00:50:01 But thank goodness for Steve down the road. He took pictures. He obviously had heard what happened and because he went over it, like there were tire tracks and stuff on the road because he went over the other side. So there was screeching. Good Lord.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Yeah, so I just want to say thank you so much to Kevin and Claire who helped me out. Kevin offered me his beanie because I was very cold. And Steve and the woman that missed her yoga class for helping me. People are so nice. Like honestly, silver lining Magoos. You saw the nice side of humanity yesterday. These amazing
Starting point is 00:50:32 people in the neighbourhood that were just willing to help anyone. Wait with me because I was like shaken. And I was just so thankful because I was eating a carrot at the time that I didn't bite down on my tongue. If you want to see a photo of Caitlin's car, we've just put it on our Insta story, FEMZM. It's now a bad time to mention that it's a community frontline car.
Starting point is 00:50:49 Yeah, so we were using this car for filming last week for a community frontline. We had stickers on it. We had stickers on it. So did that look weird that it almost looked like a... I know. It was like the community car was out and had just been... Because all these people were driving past me like,
Starting point is 00:51:04 what's going on here? So, yeah, Megan, I'll try and get the stickers off before they crush you. No, I'll just have to ask my dad for another couple of stickers. Some more stickers. Poor Bridget. I'm really upset about her. Should we tell people to keep an eye out for a 1996 whiteness
Starting point is 00:51:20 and pulsar with a number plate DBL space DS? We believe that stands for double Ds. I referenced the breast size. We believe. Who has a number plate double Ds? If you're like a panel beater and some guy comes in and his number plate's DBL space DS double Ds, ask him how it happened.
Starting point is 00:51:41 I'm quite interested to see what he has to say about that. Oh, someone crashed into me in the countdown car park and then drove by without saying anything. So there's an unsolved mystery in our house and it may well go down in the annals of time as the unsolved mystery where blame was never attributed to the guilty party. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Backstory. My daughter got given some of this, you know the Zuru people? The people that make all the toys, they're New Zealanders. They bought the Crisco mansion off Kim.com. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything. They made the water balloons. Those water balloons that tie themselves off, the fish that swim in the bath.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Pretty much the five surprise. If you go into a toy shop, look for Z-U-R-U. Yeah, Zuru. They're making all the toys now. That's why they can afford the Kim.com mansion. They walked into the toy manufacturers and they said, look at me, where's the Captain Null? And they're in charge of toys.
Starting point is 00:52:36 I want to know what they did with Kim.com's panic room. Like, what do you reckon's in that? Collectibles. That's to be that. Collectibles. That's where I'd have my collectibles. Oh, really? Okay. What, one of everything they've made? Collectibles. Answer me that. Collectibles. Do you reckon that's where I'd have my collectibles? Oh, really? Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:45 What one of everything they've made? The original. Oh, maybe. Or like actual collectible toys because they're in charge of toys now. They're just been like,
Starting point is 00:52:52 oh yeah, right. Okay. They're basically living your dream, aren't they? In my mind, in my mind, yeah, the dreams
Starting point is 00:52:58 are made in the mansion. Yeah. So they got given some Zuru goop. Like slime. Silly putty. Oh, yeah, okay. Well, we called silly putty, but this has got a different name
Starting point is 00:53:09 because obviously it's Zuru. Yeah. And Oosh or something I think it's called. It's exactly the same as silly putty. You roll it into a ball, it bounces. Put it on newsprint, it pulls off the newsprint. Yeah, gets a little copy on there. But this stuff, you rub it in your hands,
Starting point is 00:53:23 and when you get it hot enough, it changes colour. Oh, okay. Which is something our silly putty could never do in the 90s. Get that going. So I'm always like, and Shardé got this lovely new woolen rug. Yep. And I've always said, if you're going to play with that, play with it in the kitchen, because there's nothing in the kitchen.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Like if it goes on the bench, fine. If it goes on the floor, fine. If it goes on the table, our kitchen table, again, fine. If it gets in that rug, from me to you children, you won't be fine. Mum will kill us all. It's not allowed on the couch. It's not allowed on the cushion. It's not allowed on the rug.
Starting point is 00:54:01 It's a kitchen toy. It's not allowed in your rooms. Because there's carpet. Yeah. Now, one thing I never thought it could in my wildest dreams get on would be the curtains. Well, you didn't specify the curtains. You didn't say the curtains. I'll give you that.
Starting point is 00:54:15 I never said that can't go near the curtains. Okay. Imagine my surprise when I went to pull the curtains the other day and I pulled it and they were all stuck together. Can you send them a bell at the mansion? Just go round to the mansion with your curtains. Who's cleaning this? Drove all the way to Coatesville. So I pull it and it's all stuck together.
Starting point is 00:54:37 I'm like, what the hell is this? Because the cat gets in the curtains sometimes and the cat's claws mean the curtains. Sometimes it pulls, but you can just slowly pull it out and it's fine. Okay. No marks on the curtains. Yep. So I go to do that and it doesn't come apart and I turn the curtain around.
Starting point is 00:54:53 We've got bloody guru, zuru, gush, oosh, boosh, madoosh. Or like in a line along the curtain. So it's holding it together and a line down the curtain. So it's like a T, a capital T of goop on the curtains. And I said to Sade, look at what your children have done.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Your children. That's classic parenting. Yeah. That's classic parenting stuff. They get this from you. Yeah, yeah. They're running around with the Urshi Guzuru.
Starting point is 00:55:20 And we're like, oh my God. So we spend ages picking it all, like picking everything we can, but it's all in the curtain and we can't, oh, my God. So we spend ages picking it all, like, picking everything we can, but it's all in the curtain. We can't get it out. So then we're Googling how do you get silly putty out of things. Here's something I learned, and this worked. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:34 Exit mould. God, no. No way. Exit mould should not go near any fabric I'm imagining. Exit mould on a hard surface. The most unstoppable cleaner of all time. I exit moulded my shower in my Nike sweatshorts
Starting point is 00:55:49 and they've got like dots. Yeah. Like dots on them now. No. Tense bleach. Yeah. If I'm exit moulding, I'm in my undies like Walter White
Starting point is 00:55:56 on Breaking Bad. I get a little face mask on and I'm in my undies and I'm just like. But seriously, you need to clean the shower. Spray the whole thing and that stuff. Leave the room. Come back.... But seriously, you need to clean the shower, spray the whole thing and that stuff,
Starting point is 00:56:06 leave the room, come back, it's magic. You need to clean anything. If it's a hard surface, I can say use exit hole. I don't know what's in there, but it's nuclear. They'll kill you. Yeah. They'll get it on you. So WD-40, which is like CRC,
Starting point is 00:56:22 except there are differences because I had CRC and everybody was recommending WD-40 to get it out. That's the American CRC. I've got CRC, except there are differences because I had CRC and everybody was recommending WD-40 to get it out. That's the American CRC. I've got CRC. So I Googled, no, no, no, no, there's some differences. Don't put CRC on stuff. Oh, okay, right. So I went and bought WD-40.
Starting point is 00:56:35 What about Dissolve It? And I got a Dissolve It as a backup. Okay. And after hours of cleaning, I managed to get it all out of the curtains. And you can't tell it was there. But anyway, well, when the kids got home, I sat them down. Okay. I was like, August, we need to talk
Starting point is 00:56:52 about something, but I'm going to wait till your sister gets here. And like, she's young, but she knows that's trouble. She knows that means business. So I sit them both down. I'm like, alright, guys. Now, the oosh-goosh, whatever that silly putty stuff is, what's the rules with that? Not allowed on the couch or the carpet, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:57:10 And I said, well, somebody threw it up into the curtains because it was high. It was too high for either of them to accidentally drop it in the curtains. The dog got blamed. The cat got blamed. They blamed each other, but then like turned on each other, but then went back to a united front of it was neither of us. It was quiet.
Starting point is 00:57:28 But couldn't you tell like if one of them were lying? Like, don't they have a tell? They were stone face and both just frantically denying. Being the older brother, you were the middle child, but did your brother ever make you like talk you into doing things? Because I would have been like, to my brother, you throw that into the curtains. But then I would have totally knocked on him.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Oh, and then you would have straight away thrown him in. Yeah. Being like, no, he threw it into the curtains, I saw it. But then neither of them ratted each other out. Well, they tried to, but then they realised that that wasn't going to work, so they just united fronted and said it was neither of us. It wasn't. Did you get one of them into the room and, like, say...
Starting point is 00:58:04 So I separated them. Yeah. Oh, you did. And I shined a table lamp in their face. Yeah. And I was like, did you do it?
Starting point is 00:58:11 This is going to be a big trouble. Oh, no, I did the classic tell me now and you're not going to be in trouble. But if I find out you're lying, boy, I'm going to be disappointed. That... Oh, disappointed.
Starting point is 00:58:18 That didn't crack them? Really? Maybe it wasn't them. Who was it? Could you have said to Indy, like separated them and said, okay, August has told me the truth. What do you have to say?
Starting point is 00:58:31 Oh, yeah, that's unreal. I did that. I did that. And she's like, no, it wasn't me. I don't know what she said. It wasn't me. Was it Sade? I think it might be. There was.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Do you know, that was. One August was like, was it mum? Oh, shit, I love her. That exhausted her. It couldn't have been the cat, couldn't have been the dog. It was mum. She was like, it was mum. No, because she played it brilliantly.
Starting point is 00:58:56 She was like, oh, could it have been mum? I was like, no, why would mum have done it? She would have cleaned it when she had, but she wouldn't have, because obviously whoever did it knew they did it and just pushed the curtain closed and was like, what have I done? Right, okay. I'm going to go away and think about how to deal with that. So it will go down, and I like to think in their future,
Starting point is 00:59:19 they'll look back and they'll think, I got away with that. Like many of us, you know, did when we were kids. Yeah. Because we did some shocking things and my parents knew one of us was lying, but they couldn't tell who. Yeah. And in the end, we'd all get smacked.
Starting point is 00:59:35 Right. That was the general situation where we're all going to get punished for the one person's mistake. But always the problem when something got broken, you never want to own up to it. And would you put it back? Yeah. If you broke to own up to it. And would you put it back? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:46 If you broke something, you'd put it back together and put it back so the next person that nudged it or knocked it or walked past it, they thought they broke it and they felt really bad. You still do that? Yeah, adults. Oh, yeah, totally. 100%. Break something, put it back, just walk away.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Yeah. Go home from work. Let somebody else deal with it. I'd like to know the best this morning are 0800 dial ZM the best thing you got away with

Yeah, you're looking over your shoulder, but you think statute of limitations. That's not a thing in New Zealand, Paul. No, it's not, but you've heard on enough American shows that we can trick you into thinking it is. Okay, so 0800-DONALD-ZEN-9696.

There was a gooey in the curtain situation at our house and it's cleaned now and I've been asked to cease my investigations. Shaday said it. It's done. Yeah, she said you can have it.
Starting point is 01:00:54 She's given up though. I want to know who did it. Yeah, I know. I do too, but it'll come out of the wash one day. You should bribe them next time like you're doing something fun. Just be like, well, if you want to go to the theme park you have to tell me or the something show
Starting point is 01:01:07 someone's got to admit it no because then they'll just admit it to go to the theme park someone will just lie yeah they'd lie wouldn't they I don't know
Starting point is 01:01:15 god I want to know so whether or not it was something you got away with and you still have to this day as a kid or an adult somebody said
Starting point is 01:01:22 make them believe you've got hidden cameras in the house we do have a camera system in our house. You do? And I did say to them, I'll have to check that camera footage. But I forgot about that when my interrogation began. Tell them today you've checked the footage.
Starting point is 01:01:33 Does it still record from that far back? They don't know. You just sit there and say, I've checked the footage. Is there anything anyone wants to say before I reveal my verdict? They'll call you bluff. And then you're called out. Yeah, I know. And then you're called out.
Starting point is 01:01:49 And then they know. They know that the bluff's a solid game. I really want to know now. Joe, good morning. Hi. The best thing you've got away with, what is it? When I was a kid and I had two sisters, we went on a trip to Auckland. We're from Wellington. Yep.
Starting point is 01:02:04 In the car. And we stopped halfway at like a restaurant. And we had like chips and fish and chips. And what we did was we undid all the tops of the salt shakers on every table in the restaurant when my mum went to the bathroom. Joe, you shitbags. And when she came back out, she grabbed the salt from another table
Starting point is 01:02:29 because she wanted to use two, and she poured it on our chips. And it went, like, the whole thing emptied on it. It was full. And then she went up. We were like, oh, who would do that? Who would do something like that? That's so horrible. Why would someone do that? Who would do something like that? That's so horrible.
Starting point is 01:02:45 Why would someone do that? Why? But they didn't do it on our one. And she believed us. She bought it. And then she went up to the counter at the restaurant and asked for a new thing of chips, and we got it. But still to this day, you've got away with it?
Starting point is 01:03:01 Yeah, well, actually we about seven years later we said, remember that time that um remember that time that we got that free bowl of chips because of the salt and she goes, oh yeah, and we go, yeah we did that. And was she shocked?
Starting point is 01:03:20 Yeah, she was like, what? She believed she had sweet innocent kids. Exactly, but no. Thanks, you called Joe. Anonymous, good morning. Good morning. I'm going to turn on the voice disguiser.
Starting point is 01:03:32 Go ahead. What's the best thing you've got away with? So we had big, huge glass doors at our work, and the bottom lock used to play up. I used to kick it with my shoe, but that day I happened to be wearing high heels, so I grabbed a hammer to knock the lock back.
Starting point is 01:03:51 To open a glass door. No, no, the lock that goes into the ground. She kicked it up. She wouldn't ruin her high heels. Yeah, the glass door smashed. What, did you miss the lock and smash the glass door with a hammer? No, it was, I don't know, just the vibration, I don't know, but it smashed. What did you miss the lock and smash the glass door with a hammer? Um, no, it was, I don't know, just the vibration
Starting point is 01:04:08 I don't know, but it smashed and I rang up and was just like, oh, the wind caught it. So you've got away with it to this day? Yeah. We got brand new glass doors at work now though. That locks nice.
Starting point is 01:04:24 Slides in and out. And easier to open. Anonymous, thanks for your call. You're welcome. Jack, the best thing you've got away with? Morning boys, Jack the Premium Gay with another story against religion. Hi babes. They've got a few against you, so you might
Starting point is 01:04:40 as well have a few back. That's right. I grew up in the Christian household, as you guys know, and we went to this really conservative church where, like, alcohol was, like, just a topic out and, like, no one touched it, no one talked about it ever.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Like, alcohol was banned. And then one night, one Saturday night, me and my mates were out on the town. We went back to the church and we swapped out all the communion grape juice with wine. Real wine?
Starting point is 01:05:04 Yeah, like, legit. Like, I think it was, we used wine. Real wine? Yeah, like legit. I think we used like rosé or like a pinot or something. Oh, yum! Rosé! Man, the next morning, there was a scandal in the church, man. Everyone was just disgusted. They're like, who could do this to us? There's some recovering alcoholics here.
Starting point is 01:05:19 And me and my mate were sitting in the back, like not saying a thing. Oh, and to this day, you've got away with it? Got away with it. And I know no one in the church listens to this radio station. Why not? We did wrong. I think after the gay share banter over the weekend,
Starting point is 01:05:35 everyone's just gone back to life. Skid off the religious, okay? We don't want those thoughts. There you go. Ashley, what have you got away with to this day? I basically crashed and bowled down three of my neighbour's three letterboxes. On purpose? No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:05:51 It was an accident. I was driving my dad's car. I was learning to drive. Oh, okay. But the thing was he was actually in the car, and I sort of came into the driveway, and he was like, okay, just slow down, just brake, and go slowly into the driveway.
Starting point is 01:06:04 But I pushed the accelerator instead, and i kind of just went into it and then i went onto the bra onto the break and kind of jerked and stopped and we just looked at each other and um he just said keep going keep going so i went down the driveway and i was like oh my god dad like what do we do what do we do and he was like just don't worry about it i'll sort it don't worry about it and then that night we went out to dinner with my sister and they were still down. And she was like, oh, my God, look, what happened to the neighbour's letterboxes?
Starting point is 01:06:32 And we were like, no, we don't know. And nothing ever happened. Like, they eventually got fixed. So I got away with it. Technically, they didn't find out. But then at my 21st, he decided to tell everybody. So I got away with it. but then everybody knows about it. I was going to say, you know, if you accidentally kill someone,
Starting point is 01:06:49 Dad will have you back, but no, he won't. He'll just wait for the most opportune moment to tell everybody. Your 40th. So there was a time we killed somebody. Thanks, Ashley. Our text message is in. Some text messages are in. My sister had a party while my parents were away and it got out of hand.
Starting point is 01:07:04 The police, et cetera,aged to clean up and convince the neighbours not to knock. 20 years later, they told them. They told my parents about the party. Wow. Some other messages in. When I was younger, my dad told me to peel the potatoes. I really didn't want to, so I peeled the biggest
Starting point is 01:07:20 four and cut them up and then threw the others out the window. What? He returned and said, what's the story? then threw the others out the window. What? He returned and said, what's the story? Where are the rest of the potatoes? There were ten and I said, yeah, once I'd unpeeled them and cut them up, I don't know, it just looks like less,
Starting point is 01:07:36 doesn't it? That is the best story ever. We stood in the kitchen looking at each other for ages before he was like, okay. Okay. He would have found them out the window, right? That's so brilliant. And my wife messaged me.
Starting point is 01:07:53 The girls were listening to the part where I was going to say the cameras are recording the whole time, so they know that they're not recording. Foiled again! Maybe this could be a Netflix series now. Now that there's been a twist at the end of ep one, and ep twos have failed attempt to incriminate. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Today's fact of the day is about a new record set in the NBA. Okay. For the most digits. What's the word I'm looking for here? Letters. I was like, do you need a moment? One of those things you spell with. I like numbers except for spelling.
Starting point is 01:08:42 Letters. The most letters on the back of an NBA singlet. Okay. The record has just been broken. For a last name? Yes. Okay. Because you can put your whole last name on there.
Starting point is 01:08:51 Smith, piece of cake. Five letters. Oh, you're a team's dream for saving money on lettering. Yeah. Papadopoulos? A little bit longer, but doable. Hasn't there been a Papadopoulos? Has there?
Starting point is 01:09:03 How many letters is that? There's been a something-a-do-less. Does this one beat mine, Papadopoulos? Has there? How many letters is that? There's been something that could do less. Does this one beat mine, Papadopoulos? Oh, yes. This one beats yours. Fletcher, piece of cake. Yeah, easy. Piece of cake.
Starting point is 01:09:11 You think of the famous ones. O'Neill, Jordan, Bird, James. That's LeBron James. LeBron James, yeah. That's enough, eh? Yeah, you've done well. I've shown adequate knowledge. That's real good. Yeah. I'm just trying, yeah. That's enough, eh? Yeah, you've done well. I've shown adequate knowledge. It's real good.
Starting point is 01:09:26 Yeah. I'm just trying to think of Kardashian boyfriends, to be honest. Well, the new winner is shy, gilgious Alexander. Oh, my God, it's in a U shape. And there's so many letters, it has to go in a U shape. Wow. It has to go in a horseshoe shape. Yeah, okay. What, were you looking at the letters or were you looking at... Yeah, I was looking at the letters. His shape. Wow. It has to go in a horseshoe shape. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:09:46 What, were you looking at the letters or were you looking at Yeah, I was looking at the letters. His arms. Yeah. He's 20 years old
Starting point is 01:09:51 so he's right in your bracket. He has the new record that is 18 characters and his last name. Yes. What's his first name? Shy.
Starting point is 01:10:03 S-H-A-I. Don't worry, I found it. Yeah, you got him? Yes. What's his first name? Shy, S-H-A-I. Don't worry, I found it. You got him? Yeah. Holy moly. He's two metres tall and weighs 82 kgs. 82 kgs? And he's two metres?
Starting point is 01:10:17 Less than me and taller than me. Oh, my God. He weighs taller than me. He does cardio for a job, you know? Like, if you did cardio for a job, you'd weigh less. Yeah, but you'd think
Starting point is 01:10:28 if you were too mad at something, you'd have a bit more, like... Yeah, I know. Just height alone would be more weight. So the previous record was held by Rondé Hollis-Jefferson, who was 16,
Starting point is 01:10:39 including Hyphen, and the new guy, Shai Gilgis. I apologise if I say this wrong. My basketball knowledge isn't great. Alexander has 18 characters on the back of his singlet for the Los Angeles Clippers. Or the LA Clippers.
Starting point is 01:10:59 Or just the Clippers. Sure. Have you ever looked up where basketball teams got their names from? No. Because like Clippers is weird, right? Like what are they clipping? Well, they used to be like barbers. Sheep shearers.
Starting point is 01:11:10 Sheep shearers. They used to be sheep shearers. Yeah. Do you reckon? Nah. Nah. I don't know. Because the Lakers used to be from a place with lakes.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Right. And then the team got purchased by somebody in LA because LA not known for its lakes. No. I think it was purchased from the middle bit by the Big Lakes. Yeah. Okay. Who's by the Big Lakes? The seven Big Lakes is known for its lakes. No. I think it was purchased from the middle bit by the Big Lakes. Yeah, okay. Who's by the Big Lakes? The seven Big Lakes is like Michigan and that. Michigan, so maybe Detroit or Chicago.
Starting point is 01:11:31 And they buy them from different places, and then other guys like take the... And that's why some of them make no geographical sense. Okay, right. But they get switched around. Yeah, right. Cool. That fact.
Starting point is 01:11:42 Cool. Yeah. Well, no, that's pretty weird. Why not just change the name, right. Cool. That fact. Cool. Yeah. Well, no, that's pretty weird. Like, why not just change the name, right? Like, if you're going to LA, call it, like, the LA motorists. Yeah. Or freewayers. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:54 Or surfing duets. What about the hawks? What about them? Where'd they get their name from? Well, there's hawks everywhere, mate. No one questions the animal ones. Oh, yeah. Unless it's, like, very specific. Brooklyn nets yeah. Unless it's like very specific.
Starting point is 01:12:06 Brooklyn nets. Because they put it through a net. In Brooklyn. I honestly think that's a yeah. They did it in Brooklyn. And the Harlem Globetrotters because they're from Harlem. But they go round the world showing off their tricks. I know they're not in the NBA, guys.
Starting point is 01:12:21 I know they're a trick-based basketball team. But anyway, so today's fact of the day is new LA Clippers player. Chivonte is his whole first name. Gilgenius Alexander now has the most characters on the back of his NBA singlet in NBA history. Fact of the day, day, day, day, day. Brie and Clint are in studio. Good morning. Hello, guys.
Starting point is 01:13:03 Good morning. Good morning. Is this early for you guys? Nah, mate. I'm up early every morning. Hello, guys. Good morning. Good morning. Is this early for you guys? Nah, mate. I'm up early every morning. Go for a 10K run. To where? Okay, that's not the truth.
Starting point is 01:13:14 How pizza doesn't open until 10? I've never run 10K in my life. I was going to say K's in New Zealand stands for kilometres. I thought it was calories. 10 calories. Done. Okay, so it's a big day today because you are running the bisexual. Let's explain
Starting point is 01:13:31 for those that maybe don't know what that is. Okay, so it's like The Bachelor with a twist. Exactly. It's exactly like The Bachelor but the person, the main person dating the people is bisexual. So she's going to date boys, she's going to date girls and at the end hopefully she's going to find love.
Starting point is 01:13:50 Well, either a boy or a girl. Well, that's completely up to her. We don't know. That's the thing. They're going to have to be quite open and understanding, aren't they? The boys and the girls dating her? Yeah. Yeah, and possibly not too competitive
Starting point is 01:14:01 because, well, they're going to be in very close quarters and it's like the regular bachelor. There might be fights. There might be plays. They're all going to live here at ZM for three weeks. I've always wondered what it would be like dating a bisexual because everybody could be a threat. Yeah. It's true.
Starting point is 01:14:18 No, but when you're dating someone, it's not like every dude is a threat to you. For a while. When you've got a hot wife like I do, everybody's a potential threat. That's why we don't leave the house. That's why you've got that machine gun put on your front yard. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just to keep people away. In the lookout. Like keeping back a whore
Starting point is 01:14:37 sort of situation. We've had a big range of people apply to date her already. We've had straight guys, bisexual guys, lesbian women. Pansexual women. Bisexual women. No straight women, weirdly. Now what's pansexual?
Starting point is 01:14:53 I try to keep up. Pansexual. I've heard pansexuals. That's the one where it's more about the personality, not their gender. That's exactly right. Miley, right? Is Miley pansexual? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 01:15:02 Janelle Monáe's just come out as pansexual. Right. Who has? Janelle Monáe. Oh, out as pansexual. Right. Who has? Janelle Monáe. Oh, okay, right. Yeah, so that's a personality-based sexual preference, isn't it? Yeah, you fall for the personality, not the person. Okay.
Starting point is 01:15:11 So today we are releasing, and right now actually, we've just released the video of Annalise. So no one has seen Annalise, who is our bisexualer, until right now. And she's good looking. I was going to say, you guys have just seen her. What do you think? She's up on our Facebook page right now and our Instagram. Bree and Clint, what do you guys think?
Starting point is 01:15:29 She has a beautiful smile. Just from the smile, you can tell she's a lovely person. She's not as beautiful as my wife. There's less than in the car. But, yeah, she's fine. Vaughn, who did you say she looked like? I thought she looked a little bit like Olivia Munn. That is a compliment and a half.
Starting point is 01:15:49 High praise. She's a babe. All right, well, shall we meet her? Yeah, let's play a little bit of her. I've never really been a picky person. It's more or less someone that I can get along with really well and we really gel together. I've been with more guys than girls,
Starting point is 01:16:02 so my first sexual encounter with a woman was probably a year, year and a half ago. We already knew each other, I guess, is how it happened. I don't think anyone's ever asked me these questions before, so... Really? So I'm kind of nervous about it, but it's all good. I've never had a proper relationship with a woman before. When it comes to women, my favourite feature would be their smile and their eyes.
Starting point is 01:16:29 My favourite physical feature about men is probably their backs. I don't really know, like, not too muscly, but, like, not muscly. Not gonna lie, I'm actually pretty scared or worried because I'm just Brie and Clint. But I feel pretty confident that they'll make the right choice on who to pick and who to match me with. Okay. So you're opening people you have already applied, but you can still apply. Three guys, three girls. Yes.
Starting point is 01:16:59 That's what you're looking for. And she will date them over the next three weeks. We're looking for people still. So you can head to our Facebook page. Yeah. Bree and Clint and apply right now. We will have all of our contests by the end of the next three weeks. We're looking for people still. So you can head to our Facebook page. Yeah. Bring Clint and apply right now. We will have all of our contestants by the end of the week though. So if you don't apply before then, you're not dating Annalise.
Starting point is 01:17:12 Like get in right now. She said she hasn't had a relationship with a woman before. No. Not a proper one. So does that mean she's open to it or she's not? It just depends who she meets. She's 100% open to it. She told us she's had one long-term relationship in her life.
Starting point is 01:17:26 It was with her first boyfriend. It was for like six and a half years. And then after that, she's gone on a voyage of discovery and she's found herself as the bisexualer. And then she's had flings with women since over the last couple of years or whatever, but not an actual relationship. So if you're a guy applying,
Starting point is 01:17:45 would you have to be open to the fact that she might want to have a fling at some stage? No, she's looking for a relationship. Okay. She's looking for a relationship. But is she going to close off if she chooses a guy? Well, wait, that's what happens when you're in a relationship, Fleet.
Starting point is 01:17:57 She closes off. Do you understand? Do you know the basic parameters of commitment? She's not fully amorous. Thanks for asking, but no, he doesn't have any of our commitment. It's different because she's bisexual. No, it's not. She's still fully amorous. Thanks for asking, but no, he doesn't have any of our commitment with us. It's different
Starting point is 01:18:05 because she's bisexual. No, it's not. She's still going to have a relationship. No, I don't agree. What are you saying about bisexual people? So say you're a guy
Starting point is 01:18:15 and physically you're into a woman and then you get a woman. Physically, that's delivering you everything you're into, but when you're bisexual, most of the time,
Starting point is 01:18:22 but when you're bisexual, you're with a guy in a relationship with a guy, but you're also, but when you're bisexual... Most of the time. But when you're bisexual, you're with a guy in a relationship with a guy, but you're also attracted to things that he doesn't have. Yeah, but that's the same if, like, me. There's other guys that have things that Andrew doesn't have. Like what?
Starting point is 01:18:35 But it doesn't mean that you're going to go and have a fling with them. Megan might be into German guys, but she's got a... She's already got one, so... She's got a staffer. Yeah. Staffers Germans Both have questionable
Starting point is 01:18:46 Histories of racism You know They're gone the sausage You just dress Andrew up in a German outfit Just those lovely Soft accents That always sound friendly
