Speaker 1 (00:00):
This Gentleman Being podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Hey, that's us broad to you by Hello Fresh the
Experts and Tastes that kiwis love.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Welcome to the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
It's a great one for you today, but not necessarily
for you, Meghan, because you might not be getting presents
a Christmas.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
No, my husband's pitched a no present policy.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Yeah, and the audience were divided on this too. You'll
hear that coming up. And also what happens if you're
on tender and you're in a.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Relationship, well it probably you can imagine what happens and
shambalock moment even for us. We're in a package arrived
from China, blind sided all of us and I knew
nothing about it. But then you'll have that for you
right now.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Well, last week, being lost to sock and we went
on an elaborate campaign to try and retrieve the SoC
and there was a reward. Yeah, I did find us.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Street posters were up, we were all over social media
as well. Unfortunately, that sock, after many months, has not
seemed to be found. So I've just got a single sock,
like many other single socks around the country.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
We should hold a memorial service for that sock. Maybe
it's gone into hiding like Bloody Michael Jackson and Tupac.
You know how they said they're all living in Cuba.
Maybe a sock is with them. But yeah, as this
is all playing out last week, we had had a thought.
That's you know, in face of adversity, you must find opportunity,
(01:14):
that's what they say in these times. And we've found
a business opportunity. You losing a sock has sparked a
brand new business idea for the radio program. Okay, okay,
you will never lose a sock again. And a shipment
has just arrived from China in a very suspicious looking box.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
We know what it is, but no one's opened this.
We should have opened it and checked.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Before they do. They look like what you've ordered. There's
a lot of white in here. It doesn't know one
of those packages that the police hold up at the
press conferences. And this is what we've been decepted.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Found out sea floating off the back of a cargo
ship or something like.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
That would be waterproof. There's that much taper.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Okay, so you will never lose a sock either again. Okay.
The business ideas.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
That John o' pryor came up.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
With that's owned by the now. Oh dear god, what,
oh dear god, why are they like this? So there's
venomous hep. Anyway, my business idea was that we have
(02:28):
socks that come in peers of piers of three. Okay three,
we're not really a triple triplets. So then you lose one,
you've got a spear one. Now, each sock would have
John O been in Meghan written on it. Why are
you laughing, god?
Speaker 5 (02:42):
So what why does it say that?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Okay, so that was the idea to have Ben's name
on their Meghan's name and my name is three piers
of socks. No one would even lose a sock. Say
they say flavor the radio station. Why why come on here?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
I need Why do they say flavor the right station
so flavorable supports.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
There should be something in there I think we're doing.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
We're sharing song out of the These are all flavor socks.
Speaker 6 (03:15):
These are just given some flavor songs for me, mate flavor.
We should have checked me, we should, we should We'll
do another.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Okay, this is not how I saw this playing out. Okay,
this is my big moment come of a great business idea.
It was going to be the reveal. Bean was gonna go,
what three socks we're gonna give We're gonna have hundreds
stick aboy, listeners arted another radio station song.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
We can give hundreds away to listeners and say flavor
if you really want. But I'm going to.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Take responsibility for that as the producer. I should have
checked that.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I'm so sorry you shouldn't. There should have just been
a great reveal. You didn't need to check it when
ordered the socks. Well, we so m should tell Flavor
the socks have it arrived? Okay, Well, we'll hope you
do another real and infect you want a pair of socks.
They don't have to be flavor ones. Hoping your hours
are on the way. Well, we don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
We don't give them away yet. So far this is
one who wants the Flavor socks, give away the flavor.
So it's a pair of flavor song under the hats
for four eight seven as well.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Actually you could give it to your husband for Christmas.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, great, because you've got a bit of debate going
on at the moment about presence in the household.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Yeah, which is really annoyed me.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Ethan. Do you love do you love hip hop? And
R and B. You got two pairs of flavor socks, baby,
thank you so much. Wait till our socks drop change
the game? When do they get into the soccer game? Okay,
those socks are cooled to good.

all like lying right under the heater, and I was like, man,

Speaker 1 (05:16):
What is the heat head to the experience.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I'm supposed to like make your metabolism go faster, it

The topic and the come out of your body and
stuff like, yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:27):

Smart. Smart. Is it one of those things where they're
like girls try to avoid doing proper exercise pretty much
just whole this position in sweat. It's just like running
ameership really hard. It is, Yeah, is a proper exercise.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Hey, so this morning, producer Grace has surprised us as
we arrived to work, right yeah, accosted us with a
question first thing in the morning, and I wasn't quite
ready for the question to be honest, I want to
that I bet you will, just said me, Well, this
is the thing. She had a sign as she was
following us that said if one of the show was
involved in a scam on the news, who would it be?
(06:13):
So we each got to answer as we arrived at work.
I was first, Meghan second, and John O third. Have
a listen.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
And he tell everyone about it. This is a great idea,
will h.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
John.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
John is most like I'm going to say, being boys
because he looks at the top person that wouldn't which
is the ideal scam artist. I bet everyone else said
me didn't they Yeah, I probably would have to be honest.
I just had to choose someone else that wasn't For years,
I was getting away with the remember of the parking
(06:51):
at the airport, Oh yeah you were Yeah, no morals
on that one, did you. I had a credit card
free parking, free parking. I don't know what had happen.
And there was a glitch in the matrix. Anyway. You'd
go for three four days in a row, sometimes a
week parking and then I'd tap my credit card. You
put the parking ticket, and when you ride back, tap
the credit card and say, oh, this isn't working, and
(07:12):
it would you take it out and said have a
nice day, and then I chip my credit card wasn't charged.
Went on for six to twelve months, and I see, Ben,
I'll pay for your parkings that I don't want to
be involved in you, especially at the airport. I've been
arrested at the airport. Yeah, because I've all paid the
nine hundred and twenty two for parking things. So that
was a great one over the parking the parking enforcement
(07:33):
for me. Yeah, you go, good scam.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
There were right the hits that johna Wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Now Friday Night sun plays basketball and Friday nights, which
is a very inconvenient time at the end of the
weeks when you're playing basketball, isn't it sad? Yeah, it's
very popular time for basketball, right for whatever reason. You know,
like the first thing in the morning is very popular
time for rowing. Yeah, Friday night, Friday night usual time.
Any other night, You're right, you know, there's four other
(08:00):
great nights throughout the week you can be doing this.
But anyway, even Sunday nighty night. So I picked him
up Friday nights and it was about sort of eight o'clock.
And this is a bleak refection of my Friday night.
So I'm sitting in the car and but early, so, oh,
might as well get some I'll just get some work done, Okay,
So I'll open up the laptop and hack away and
get it. Get a jump on the next week.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
You want there now, you probably get that when your
kids get a little older. I find a lot of
my life is spent in the car on the laptop.
I'm sweet, I've got a musical theater. Whatever it has practice.
Just hang out there and do some work. Rather drive home,
drive back.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I'll just set the car so much times spitting your car.
That's what you're gonna look forward to. Yeah, you get
over the fact that you're looking a laptop in your car. Well,
this is my issue. So I'm sitting there, it's pitch
black darkness in the car park, and obviously the screen
from the laptops lighting up my face. The cars are light.
Then I get it's a fellow father. It's a fellow dad.
(08:56):
Is what are you looking at on there? Mate? And
I'm like, well, just just emails, just some Gmail stuff,
just getting ahead of next week. He's like, oh yeah,
accusing me of maybe looking at some less than savory content.
Now I'm thinking if I'm going to do it, it's
very strange location in the car park of my son's
(09:17):
basketball Why people walking past, And I'm fully illuminated the
shocking conditions. To even begin to think about looking.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
At that waiting for my son to knock.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
On the window would be very risky of me. Yeah,
And I mean, in any instance, who's looking at that
in their car? You're going to do that in private?
But everyone always issues or using his car. What is he?
You know your neighbors said the same thing to me.
Didn't you ago knock on the window. What are you
(09:48):
looking at the mat? Just some emails? He's like, I'll
show you some sites, very very generous.
Speaker 3 (09:54):

Speaker 4 (10:40):
We've moved off. I'm straight and started in the job one.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Monday last week. So on Friday, being you this is
a very AI heavy twenty minutes on the show you
you typed into check GPT to roast our program and
it was heartbreaking.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Oh yeah, like us just on the Instagram feed alone.
It really got quite brutal about it.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Do you take a picture of your Instagram? Do you?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
And you just said, hey, and my daughter showed me
how to do it. She's like roast dust, you know,
be mean? That's what you be mean?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Boy, it was mean, but.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Also because it was just accurate. Yeah, it was scarily accurate.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Chaotic meets midlife crisis is I think? How did you
describe this.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Frosted tips?
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I wasn't there? Yeah? Am I dressing like a teenager
or some the nineties?
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Every lead singer of every indie band ever stuck? You've
stuck for like so many years without changing, Like, we
get it, dude.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
It was like all the stuff.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Anyway, it was good. That was fun. Now, Ellie, you've
come in with a part to a sequel to this.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
I have because it was so accurate and so great,
I thought this needs to be elevated, and I thought,
why not use AI once again and just make it
into a roast track. So I've done similar to what
you just did about ten minutes ago.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Sorry, more of the chances.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
It's okay, but it's quite a banger, and so I
just wanted to play you.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
This is now your AI roast and.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Song form like a rap battle. Say yeah it's a song? Yeah,
Well is it nicer in song form? Is it easier
to die? I think it might be worse good? And
you're trying too hard? Well, class crits.
Speaker 8 (12:26):
You're playing in that car key mid life, lost in
the free like two bron kids. Just waste in the teeth,
John Oman, what's up with that look? Still talking about
your gry days just like a book. Ben's frosted tips
sweet back in time. But the choke's on you, out

Speaker 1 (13:02):

watching the tree wreckage day. You're still dressed like a
nineties band.
Speaker 8 (13:08):

over there with the silent.
Speaker 1 (13:12):

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm like, I read about I love it you hey
jono yo, hey man, he's still dristing on the nineties.
It's actually a bit easier to idea sweet it's not
read out. Yeah. Yeah, so what's the catch phrase? Too
(14:07):
chaotic meets midlife crisis?
Speaker 5 (14:08):
I think yeah, that song is called midlife full all right.
Speaker 7 (14:14):
Well, then we go the hits that jon Wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
And I was reading in the Weekend, as did you
Megan an article on Katy Perry's new album really got slammed,
isn't It?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
From Rolling Stone a one and a half star rating
and said it was flat and lots of awful things.
But I went into the comments and everyone was defending her,
saying that was really mean too.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
That's good. Yeah, I just felt I always thought of
those critics, will you go record an album there you go?
Flat lifeless as well? Yeah, I'm not going to sit
here and critique it exactly.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah, having never made an album before and myself, I'm
never going to critique someone else's album.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
You say she turns forty in a couple of weeks,
does she megan?
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Yeah, months ago.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
This is well. Welcome Katie, welcome to what you think
is the beginning of the end. But it's not. Because
on Instagram, I always feed to this lovely gentleman who
not like he is stuck in peak out of traffic
or something filming. It's a look at dell Alama, backed
up on the Southern Motorway, but filming wonderful life advice
he in his fifties and the advice you would give
(15:18):
his forty year old self.
Speaker 11 (15:20):
Okay, I'm fifty three. Here's advice I would give my
forty year old self. I remember turning forty thinking I'm old.
It's over, the game is over. So I spent my
forties feeling old. What's funny is when I turned fifty
it stopped. I felt very young for my age. I
was shocked at how active and great I felt at fifty,
and how excited I was about the world. So I
(15:40):
would go back and say, no, no, no, no, your fifties
are going to be incredible. Spend your forties just like
your thirties and your twenties, preparing, like, keep getting better
and keep being excited about all the things are gonna
happen to you. Because I honestly feel like I'm fifty
three and I haven't peaked yet. I haven't peaked in
my career, haven't peaked as a husband, hasn't haven't peaked
as a dad, haven't even peaked at the top of
my physical fitness. And I can still get So.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
You go, Katie Perry. Your best album is Get to Come.
Isn't that nice? So that's what you need on a
Monday morning? Yeah, some motivation, keep on digging it in.
You're still very young in your forties. There's still a
lot of life to live, isn't there. What do you
think it's been the best year of your life, of
this existence you've lived.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I reckon like thirty early thirties.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Why because I got divorced.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Fir enough. It's good time. It's a good year. You
have that marked in your chapter.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
In the chapter, Yeah, I do feel like it does
vary though, you know, like I like the carefree nature
of the twenties when you're you know, you're out yet going.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
You're traveling, all that's something less responsibility. But honestly, you're
in a nightclub and you're like, oh, it's only three
thirty in the morning.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
At three in the morning, now, yeah, something about that,
Like I love I love that, and then I also
love when you get older and you do, yeah, you
get the kids has been awesome and amazing and you know,
and some times responsibilities are awesome.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
You get to a better stage in your career. So
it really is hard to say it is you don't
know that you're living the next year of your life
when you're doing the best year of your life, do you?
And who's to saying? Like that guy hasn't happened so far?
Still to come?

Speaker 7 (20:56):
So.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Oh, you've had to just get used to it again.
We kind of bullied you into it. Well, Faith, there
you go, still back in the game and still loving life.
That's great. Thank you. Someone's written an article on this too,
saying the sixties gonna be the greatest decade of everyone's.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Life, isn't that when you're most happy in your sixties?
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yeah, Content, you've kind of for the most part set
yourself up and now you just get to enjoy the
fruits of your of your labor and your sixties. Oh
it's still great stuff. It's a hold little more to it,
and you're like fake enjoying it right now.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
The hits that jonavan Ben podcast was.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
This week thirty years ago that the first episode of
Friends came out.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Who is that thirty years ago? It's a great story
where I think the producers flew them all to Vegas,
didn't they before the show had started, and they I
think I saw it on some true Hollywood story and
they were on the plane and they said, this will
be the last time you'll be able to go out
in public without being recognized, and it was from that
day forward changed all their lives forever. Totally. Yeah, huge
(22:02):
iconic show. Probably one of the biggest series of all
time right now, Meghan, Dear Megan, this is an interesting
one involving Tinder.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
Me.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Someone slid into your DMS.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, okay, I'll read it to you. It doesn't involve Tender,
It says hi guys. I was wondering if you could
put this out there for a Dear Megan, I would
love to hear your listener's thoughts. My husband and I
have been married for almost two years, but I noticed
that he has downloaded Tender onto his phone again. We
met over Tinder, so I know you used to have
(22:33):
a profile, but once we got serious, we both deleted it.
When I hit him up about it, he said he'd
been using it to meet new friends.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Seems rock solid. This is what I say. There's no argument.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
I know you can use Tender to meet friends, but
I just don't know if I believe him. Do any
other guys use Tender to meet friends? He never told
me he was trying to meet new people, so I'm
a little skeptical. What do you guys think?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Well, you can't like, yeah, technically you can use tend to.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
He comes to Switzerland.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
It's a controversial platform to find friends on. I get why.
I get why she is a little bit suspicious of this.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
If you were if you two as men were looking
to find new guy friends, it's tender where you'd go.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
It's probably not.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
No, it's probably not where I go, but it is,
I would say it is. I think as you get older,
it's harder to make friends, you know, So I'm not
I'm not if there's genuine intentions, and I don't want
to put someone down for looking for it, but it's
probably not the first place I would go. I'd probably
find things that were I was interested in and maybe
go to places that other people would be for example.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
The Swingers Club Yeah, well yeah, or the Warriors.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
You know that warriors want to go you know a
place that's got the Warriors on telling things like that,
or go to a game.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Or things like that.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
So we've got the diplomatic answer, John O.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I'm at this stage in my life where I could
not handle any friends. I barely can't catch up with
the people that I know at the moment arriable friend
So finding new friends is not on the agenda for me.
But would I do it on Tinder? Probably not? Probably not,
to be honest, seems like it would just cause too
much headache.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
And I feel like that would be something you discussed
with your partner and be like, I feel like I
need more guy friends. I'm going to download Tinder to
try and find some guys, you know, or you'd be like,
I'm gonna we need to go out socially, or I'm
gonna you discuss it with your partner. For sure.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
The hard thing too, I reckon it'd be hard of
finding a friend on Tinder, because if you don't get
along as friends, it's not like you're breaking up with
someone that you're looking to get into a relationship with
where you're like, we're not compatible. We can't spend every
day together and live together. You have to break up
with a friend of like, oh, I don't think I
can be bothered catching up with you three or four
times a year sort of thing once a week, Like
(24:45):
that's a harder break up for me than a relationship one.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, so I won't have to do this.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
This This is the question. Can you be in a
relationship and still on Tinder.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Yeah, but you know, let's say for friendship purposes. I mean, yeah,
you might have a big question mark whether it's legit
or not.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
It's definitely not legit.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Can you flick it on friend mode?
Speaker 4 (25:07):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
None of us have had no, but you can't. You
can actually look for friends looking on it.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
But it would have been open about it.
Speaker 7 (25:15):
He did it on the slide the hits that jonaan
Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Someone has slid it into Meghan's themes again with a
bit of a dilemma. Meghan's well not buying the argument
from the partner here today.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
You're trying to be diplomatic, but you know him right.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
We're trying to build a case for this poor fellow,
trying to help.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You decide. You decide.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
He's basically well, these people have been married for almost
two years. She has noticed that he has downloaded Tender
onto his phone. She hit him up about it, and
he sees he's been using it to meet new friends.
She is skeptical, and I think as she should be,
because I don't know any adult men that would download
Tender just just to meet new guy friends.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And we're trying to come up with a defense of
this guy feel like blood. He did. He's lawyer. This
is a hiding to nothing, mate. You can't. You can't
use it for that.
Speaker 10 (26:04):
You can.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
But there's also another app called Friender which is just
specifically for that, So that would probably make a lot
more sense without the accnnotations that maybe, yeah, you're looking
for a relationship.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
On our Facebook. This is from GC, he said. As
a married man of two years, I've never used Tinder.
I would also never use Tender to meet you friends.
There's plenty of other ways to do that that doesn't
involve a notorious hookup app.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
What did you say? Friends one friender? Yeah, so going
to friender that would solve all this. You wouldn't even
be on the radio right now. We won't be talking
about this guy's issues on the radio. We're going to
get Aaron on the phone. Welcome Tinder and a relationship
if you're looking for friends, it's all above board eron
what do you say?
Speaker 12 (26:47):
No, not at all.
Speaker 9 (26:48):
That's sedating app for a reason.
Speaker 12 (26:50):
That's not a friendship. Friendship.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
So I'm with Megan.
Speaker 12 (26:54):
No partner would be happy with your partner on the friends.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I love getting the guy opinion on this, So I
don't just sound like I'm being mean.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
I appreciate that. Aaron.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
All right, we're going to hook you up for sixty
five dollars to spend a gift card for the warehouse.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
How did you meet your partner erin?
Speaker 11 (27:13):
I'm true, you're right, and.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
So you deleted it? Wait what stage into the relationship
do you get rid of the app?
Speaker 9 (27:20):
Oh? Pretty early on?
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Yeah? Is it like? Is it like, do you have
a conversation with each other as a time to delete this?
Put this in the bin?
Speaker 9 (27:28):
No?
Speaker 12 (27:28):
No, really, I think it's just just you just delete
it when when the times are I think.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah, okay, you know when the time's right. Oh, you're
so on that app. Someone's saying, I go on to
grinder to look for friends on four four eighty seven?
Is the text here? In no way there's more options
to make friends than tender. This is crazy. The friends
category is just to cover reads another text. Seems like
it's going to be a landslide victory here. Yeah. Sure
(27:57):
it was a flimsy case. Maybe and maybe, But my
advice sill would be don't waste the lawyers fees, mate,
honestly to take the Sean tell Hi, Yeah, are you
on our side.
Speaker 13 (28:10):
I'm with me, and.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
There was a small part of you that thinks maybe, maybe,
just maybe it could be used for friend purposes.
Speaker 12 (28:19):
I would have a set of My husband has turned
on his phone.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Too, especially since he never added to the profile before.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
I be like, was that what?
Speaker 12 (28:31):
No? I definitely agree should not be having it on
his phone at all.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Okay, no, no, oh, listen, this is probably a full
gone conclusion.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
You're going to hook you up for sixty five dollars
to spend at the warehouse. Every caller that gets on
the show this week we'll win. That's celebrating sixty five
years of Barbie.
Speaker 12 (28:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Do you even need to wrap up this time? Megan?
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Well, yeah, everyone knows it's a red flag. You're gonna
have to have a serious conversation with your partner because
it's a taining app And even worse, it's like it's
more like a hook up at.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Really, someone's coming with a big one here. He sounds
like a narcissist. I don't know how. I don't know
how they've landed there, But if you're having to go
on tender and look for friends, he would not feel
that comfortable if it was a partner was doing the
same thing. Yeah, and that's what you've got to ask yourself. Yeah,
and hey, thank you so much.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
A few calls and texts on this one, that johnaan
Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
On the weekend, you know, took the dog, big fluffy
white dog, both for a walker and the weekend, as
I do most most weekends. Took him for a walk
and usually, you know, you guys have your dogs. You
normally it's a one bag situation and go out. You've
got yourself covered. I having a bag, all good to
go now. He went pretty early on to his business.
Great early into the water and then great.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Walking past the bus stop where they had a council
bin was going. It was working.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
It was like, great, Dave, don't have to carry it
around for the rest of the trap. Put it in
the bin, disposed of that, and I thought things were
good until about halfway through our walk he was sort of,
you know, motioning to do it again.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
I'm you've had it on you.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Squeeze, squeeze outside someone's house too, you know, when this
thing's around.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
And I'm like, and he did his business, and I'm like,
and I've had been in that position to you're like, no, don't, don't, don't.
Like you're talking to them and then you realize they
don't understand it. What was it okay before and not
okay now?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
So he does his business now and I'm like, oh,
I don't want to be that person that leaves that,
you know, because he's a large dog. That's substantial. Yeah,
And so I sort of did this Panama. I didn't
know if anyone was listening, but I'm like, oh, come
back and pick it up, you know, to the you know,
I've got to come back. Try to remember the car
that was parked at the house and stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
And I wish i'd seen that, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Just yourself on your phone. Look, I said I was
going to come back on camera, so I was going
to look at you that guy still coming back, look
at this dog. I'll be put all over social media.
So so you didn't know if anyone was hearing this now,
but I sent it out to the universe.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
And then I walked all the way home with the dog.
I'm like, I'll be to go back. So it did,
and then drove drove the car back. Someone like, drove
the car back parked on the.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Side the right.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
I'm back to pick it up. And as I did
go to pick it up with the bag, this time
my sunglasses just tucked and around the top of your
ship and just fell directly into the Then I'm.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Like, the universe is supposed to be behind. You're like,
I came back.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I could have lifted there. I got it, but then
I had to Then you have to like fish the
together get stuck inside. This is just a demoralizing thing
for all of us.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
So yeah, when you have to put the back on
to drive the car, so what's the I don't know
what the lessen is there to go back trying to
go You're right, Megan, I was trying to do a
good thing.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Yeah, that would have looked so weird too. You see
a car pull over, get out, scoop up, a.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Dog announcing his back.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No dog, No dog's collecting, he's collecting.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
And then did you put in the bottle and take
the car? You're right, that's probably weirder than the first time.
Leave it a weird brown substance around.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Now, we just mentioned that till last week. We're looking
for Ben's missing sock, and we came up with a
business idea, So no one, you know, losing socks would
be a thing of the past. And we have peers
that come with spears. So you have socks that come
in threes. Yeah, okay, and if you lose any beyond that,
well that's on you. There's not much more we can do.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
So you've got some socks that the right box. You've
the right box. Now socks, not the favorite socks.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Shambalack opening ceremony just moments ago, and so inside shambala
then that French one when the painted that guy all blue.
So you get not just too, you get three socks.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
They've got the white socks, they've got the hats logo
all on one side, and then on the inside you've
got a JOHNO sock, a bean sock, and Amegan sock.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So they're coming three.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
So do you have just decide each morning what are
you gonna ask?
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, you could wear a bean in amegan, or you
can wear a John O and amighan or John o'an
been whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
But if you lose one, you've still got a spear. Yeah,
peers that come with spears.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Amazing.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Well, if you want some sock limited edition, very limited exclusive,
you can text four three seven. But if you get
hold of these, it might be some special things coming
up for you. Knows. Just during the song he's like,
he's got big plans for his socks. Yeah, tell you
what he's talking A festival and wait next year, so
October is going to be huge, guys. But I'll tell
(33:20):
you what's a bit of an issue in your household
at the moment. Is ninety three days out from Christmas.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Although you say that and I saw farmers have put
up their Christmas decoration display.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
That's a good gauge.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
So you're already talking about it in your household. You
love Christmas.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
We like to be very prepped. First November, Christmas tree
goes up, and I like to space out my Christmas shopping,
so I kind of start looking now, especially at the moment,
because you know, cost of limit, et cetera. So I
said to my husband, I was like, of recent years,
we've started to sit a limit so that we each
stick to it. But this year he was like, you know,
(33:57):
times are tough. He was pitching no present for us,
and I was like, wait, what do I open on
Christmas morning? And he was like, no, we don't need presents.
It's about the joy of like watching the kids open something.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
And it's a great it's a great argument that Andrew
Peppers has come out with. And he's not springing this
on you three days out. Yeah, he's given you time
to roll through the series of emotions, the anger, the frustration,
and then eventually you'll you'll come to terms with them.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
But I didn't realize how invested I was into the prison.
So I was like, oh, you know, Christmas isn't about
prisents about all the other stuff and the lead up. Sure,
but now I realize if I don't like get a
prison on Christmas Day, I don't know, it just doesn't
feel like Christmas.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
But then is this one of these things? And you
fell into this trap? You had a no present policy.
One year I stuck to it. My wife didn't. I
just saw one thing. I was like, no, you didn't.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
No, he will stick to it. He will. Have you
said it, He's going to stick to us.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
So the next time we did it about we need
to stick to this because I feel awkward. It's like, oh,
there's one thing. I'm like, listen, you listen. We're in
an agreement, and all the family are like Oh, that's
so nice to a man. I'm like, no, it's not.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
Yeah, you feel bad, like.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Put me on the spot.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
You feel bad not having a prison for her, but
at least you got to open something. If I got
ham a prison here to get meat one, I'd be
so annoyed.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Well. One of the joys about being a radio host
is you can solve your private issues on the spree
public platform and we get throw it out to the audience.
Oh eight hundred telephone number. Okay, the people's court is open.
Whose side are you on him? Meghan or Andrews.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
I was like, oh, we could even sit a limit
of like fifty bucks each, you know, and then like,
it's up to you.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
You could be like creative with it.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
You could make something as well, but like you sit
a limit, sure, but like no prisons.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
The People's quarter is open, Okay, you decide whether a
Megan gets prisons. This Christmas, this is on you. With
great power comes great responsibilities.
Speaker 7 (35:52):
The heads that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Meghan's already counting down to not only Daylight Savings this
coming weekend, but to Christmas already. Even Christmas competition conversations
or competitions.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
We usually set ourselves a limit for Christmas presents, me
and my husband, But this year he's pitched no presents,
cost of living, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Have you done that one where we all buy a
present for adults. We did that a couple of years ago,
so everyone just buys one gift.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
We do that with the extended family. We have a
secret center. We all buy one prison.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Then you could steal off other people. It's quite good.
Oh no, I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
So you open that, You're like, open that one, and
then afterwards I'm like, oh no, God, okay, you either
take their present or open a new one.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
It was kind of thing. Yeah, it feels like that
could create quite a tense Christmas Day. We did that
at a staff party once and everyone was trying to
snatch the money off some Yeah, so you decide whether
Megan gets prisons this Christmas. You're on team Andrew, who husband?
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Any tips you've got on how to like navigate this.
I did pitch fifty dollars limit, but he's still not
keing for that.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
What I like is the foresight from him. He's given
you enough time to meanly prepare yourself for zero presents,
and I mean, what more do you want you got
the most perfect husband. Okay, that's a prison.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
Enough perfect because he's pitching no present that.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
He's thinking of the overall cost of the household. Kim
hi Yah, Yeah, presents or no presents for in the
papa's household this Christmas.
Speaker 12 (37:15):
I'm definitely with me again. It's the thought of the
thoughtful mess behind it.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Ryan.
Speaker 12 (37:22):
Even if you guys did vouchers for each other for
a really nice experience or something, do you do together as.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
The stamily a coffee club? Coffee club teen for one
loyalty voucher?
Speaker 4 (37:35):
I think that's what Ken was meaning.
Speaker 12 (37:37):
Experience about a child, a child free date night.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
The coffee clubs hey had on You can appreciate that.
Since you're on air too, thanks to the Warehouse is
celebrating barbie sixty fifth anniversary. We're going to give you
sixty five dollars to spend at the Warehouse.
Speaker 12 (37:54):
Oh yeah, I can start my Christmas shopping.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
You can. But Ken, Andrew, that's the big question right now.
It's the People's Court this morning. We're going to get
Carrissa on. Welcome, Have I gone Carrissa? And have you
got Carissa on? Naomi here Caressa on Carissa, lovely to
have you on, Carissa. Are they having presents in Megan's
household this this Christmas?
Speaker 9 (38:17):
Yes, I think it's a good idea, even if you
set the limit.
Speaker 13 (38:20):
It's good for the kid's perspective of status.
Speaker 12 (38:22):
Adults getting prisons.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
No, just the kids. Do they really care? You think
the kids what? They're so focused on their presence.
Speaker 9 (38:29):
It's a good thing for them to learn that they're
not the only ones that they can how to give prison.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
To see I'm being a good parent by asking for prisons.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Not everyone's on your side, though, I'm on Andrews's side.
Christmas is for the kids. As you get older, you
should just be grateful to have a roof over your head,
just to.
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Still be here.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
You're right, still here, ready on that roof at home?
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Is there my husband?
Speaker 1 (38:53):
I think it was his number. Thank you so much
for your calls and text Well, let's take one more,
the decider. Let's get Naomi on. How are you Naomi?
Speaker 7 (39:01):
Hello?
Speaker 1 (39:02):
The people's court is open. Is Meghan getting Christmas presents
this year?
Speaker 12 (39:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (39:07):
Tea Andrew And since the South African accent as well,
he's South African, there's some sort of bond there, bonded.
Speaker 9 (39:16):
Over bil Oh, absolutely, absolutely no. We haven't done Christmas
presents for years. It's all about the kids really, you know,
we make birthdays special bye, No, I mean if it's
(39:37):
really a big deal. What we do, what we started
doing is friends and family and we get the kids
involved as well, and do you secret center. But we
make a little list and five things that you would
want with a limit, and the kids save up as
well so they get to buy for whoever. And you
know we do that, so Andrew, what.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
About no presence? For friends and family and just for me?
Speaker 2 (40:04):
The John and Ben Podcast, we like to play the
Internet outrage game. We each find a story on the
Internet and then we try and guess why there was outrage.
And I was gonna I'll kick things off, Megan. You've
been talking about my one all morning. I found this
great story in the weekend. Is that what you're outraged about?
Speaker 1 (40:21):
How I'm outraged because you talk my story about outrage?
But fair enough, it.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Has become news. It has become big news right now.
A zoo over in China, we're painting dogs to look
like pandas as panda beer.
Speaker 4 (40:32):
Cubs, a chow chow dogs, a big suffy white ones.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
They look very adorable. What pain do you use? Is
it kind of because you wouldn't want the water based
job because if it rains then they start dripping, so
you have for a spray paint or some animal friendly
paints there. How long they beginning away with this for.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, well now people have complained and now they've said, oh,
they're panda dogs.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
We really do look like.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Little pandas though are they cute? They're pretty cute.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
What's the outrage? Then?
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Well those people thought.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
They it does We'll put a picture up on that.
It's been for social are pretty cute, a pretty cute.
But then the dogs obviously, like we were just talking
moments ago about the dog with nature calls, they obviously
have a certain style that if you see a panda
cocking illegal something, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (41:21):
Can we could do this to bow you're a dog where.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
We could Yeah, I don't know, I don't know what
they are.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
That's okay to be painting animals up. So the internet's
outraged over the painting of dogs, Yeah, I can understand. Yeah,
I can understand where that comes from. So that's that's
my one today. So we'll move on from mine. It's
a volatile ecosystem of misinformation and outrage and a lot
of naked people too on the internet too.
Speaker 3 (41:43):
Well, this isn't anything thing to do with nudity. My
one has boss texting a worker while on holiday.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
What and the internet's outraged that this is our annual
leave lever alone.
Speaker 4 (41:55):
I think I saw this also, the text that they see.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Yes, I did see this. I saw this weekend. There
was a message while on holiday, and it was kind
of like it was an unnecessary message that would cause
a lot of anxiety, right.
Speaker 3 (42:07):
You two, Like when you're at weekends and holidays, you're
still like doing texts and work and stuff. So I
don't think like necessarily would have got you guys, you
work all the time.
Speaker 4 (42:16):
But it was what the texts?
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Yeah, yeah, the text.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
We had a visit from the area manager. So this
is the boss to the worker on holiday. We had
a visit from the area manager and he's pissed about
our figures. I think we're going to have some really
tough meetings when you get back.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
Don't worry about it right now. Don't worry about it
right now.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
It's going to be when you come back.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
I'll just worry about it the whole rest of my holiday.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Holiday. I love it. There's just a boss going this
is too much for me to hold on to. I'm
going to palm this off on.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Someone else literally said, don't worry about it while you're
on your break.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
So worry me about it. Yeah, that's okay. My outrage
simply is the Internet is outrage but also divided over
a lady buying her husband a gift. Have a think.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
So a lady brought her husband a gift and he
was ungrateful for it.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
What was it?
Speaker 4 (43:08):
What the gift was?
Speaker 1 (43:09):
Yes, he was driving to have a day of golf
with his friends. She was going out for lunch. Different,
She's like, you better come home. I bought you a gift.
And the gift was he had to go to the
hardware store and pick up a barbecue that she had
bought that he needed to assemble for dinner that night.
Speaker 7 (43:24):
And this is the jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Yeah on the Loose over the weekend in the christ
suburb of Hallswell, shocking residents as they were running through
backyards and across roads and stuff. Oh dear, literally quite
quite big deer too, very big deer. But I think
back into the wilderness now halls. Well, that's right, I
(43:53):
love yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
Ah. You know, terms and conditions. So when you're downloading
an app, has anyone in the history of downloading anything
ever read the terms and conditions or you've just blindly
gone I agree to everything that's in here.
Speaker 2 (44:08):
Sometimes I feel like when people make your sign it
at places, I feel pressure.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
For some reason, I just pretend, I pretend to read it.
You don't know what you're saying. You honestly have no
idea what you've just clicked to agree to it. It
could be babysitting duties for the next ten years when
anyone calls you. But I was doing the same thing.
I was downloading an AI website over the weekend, different friends. Yeah,
(44:38):
I agree to everything. But then I was like, oh,
there's pages and pages of terms and conditions here, and
I just I just clicked. I agree. I don't care.
I don't care what information they have on my phone.
I don't care. I don't care, and I should care.
So then I ended up writing a song about terms
and conditions and then put it into the AI webs
(45:00):
right after this Terms and Conditions. It was the inception
of terms of additions. Have listened to what it spent out.
This was about ninety seconds. It came back with us okay.
Speaker 2 (45:12):
Okay, fifty nine pages and tiny funks saying read me.
Speaker 13 (45:17):
But I'm notchalant.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
You're teasing me with your Teas and Sees.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Let's cut to the chase and click.
Speaker 1 (45:23):
I I agree.
Speaker 9 (45:24):
I don't care if trying at tracks me has me
just throw your app at me.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
So many rules for your license agreement, but.
Speaker 12 (45:32):
You and me both no, I won't read to the course.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
Okay, seven free for my in me as an insurance policy.
There's one hundred thousand words in Apple's conditions. You could
spend six months.
Speaker 9 (45:50):
In federal PRIs.
Speaker 10 (45:52):
So I was thinking this shot.
Speaker 7 (45:54):
I get up from this shut to Teas and you sees.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
I've read none of these three yes, s c S
two policies.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Yes.
Speaker 6 (46:06):
Really Now the chorus and you see is just launch gbaut.
Speaker 10 (46:11):
I'm up to page three and a half way through your.
Speaker 4 (46:15):
Sees and Sees.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
Quite robot you at the start, but amazing when you
got to the chorus, it was like, wow, ninety it
came back crazy, that's the top fifty.
Speaker 3 (46:26):
It was just like Taylor Seft or Miley Cyrus like
mashed up.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Isn't it? What if I was an artist, I just
typed my lyrics into check GPT and go that's a
great melody and just do that and then sing that. Yeah.
But you never know where it's got it from.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
I guess it's the thing crazy like you're saying the
other day that because it's taking from everything else. So
then you know Houston and pay Yeah, thats exactly my song,
You're like, I know.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
I was playing it to the kids and I was like,
look at this, this is amazing. And I was waking
the kids up yesterday morning and they very unfazed by
the whole thing. But to us, this is.
Speaker 7 (47:03):
Mind the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Very excited to the Auckland f C. The new football
team are going to be playing in the A League
very shortly, be the Phoenix out of Wellington and all
the Auckland f C, the Black Knights out of Auckland,
and we're very excited about it.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
We're getting behind it here at the Hits. Yeah, and
media and PJ. I don't know if you've seen this
on social media. They have tasked themselves with coming up
with a move, like a celebratory move, something like what
the players and the crowd can do. Yeah, have a listen, guys,
So looking.
Speaker 3 (47:36):
For a new move that people can pull out at
the game, and we need to.
Speaker 4 (47:40):
Come up with some suggestion.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
They want this to basically unite everyone that goes to
the game with one simple move. Now, we can't leave
this in the hands of PJ. We can't leave her
to organize a move. She couldn't even organize herself to
get to the airport on Friday. She had to drive
six hours to where she needs to be broadcasting from.
So we can't Can we leave this on Pj's shoulders.
(48:03):
No to come up with to move because you know
the Wellington Phoenix, they've got tops off, wave them around
there to get the tops off at some stage in
the game. Very brave and those blistery conditions in Wellington too,
very cold. So I think we could do better than that.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
If you want to be part of football history, of course,
you can get tickets to the Auckland f c's our
first season.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
It's on sale now. Very excited about that.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
The open up or October nineteenth or the details at
Auckland FC Dot co dont need to, but you're right.
Speaker 1 (48:26):
We need to come up with some sort of move,
like a celebratory move. What's the one that all the
kids do with Ronaldo's Is it the move? Yeah? And
I see some sort of yeah, we sort of I'm
going to sound like very out of touch here.
Speaker 2 (48:40):
Isn't when he slided on the on the on the
knees and does that arm thing down from up down.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
Yeah, that's kind of like a cool move Ronaldo chop. Yeah,
someone's cooler.
Speaker 2 (48:50):
Yeah, but I think it's got another name for it, Sue. Yes,
So I thought it was something to do with this,
but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel.
Speaker 3 (48:58):
Like i'd dive down on my knees and just face
plant rather than like scared.
Speaker 2 (49:03):
There was one that football, yes, and the turf was
quite hard and did the same thing, and I think
he dissipated a knee cat celebrating because he.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Stopped it was another player trying to do the slide.
You want to check the conditions.
Speaker 4 (49:17):
And just check the grass like cake and slide even pre.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
Game just chick the durability of the year. So I mean,
we're going to come up with a move. What could
you do. What about a nice, classy, understated handshake, Well done, congratulations.
Speaker 2 (49:31):
The crowd do it the players. Just a good solid handshake.
Nothing you know, everyone knows what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Yeah, takes away from the excitement of the moment.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
High five, high.
Speaker 2 (49:42):
Five rescue for white people, hands and faces miss timed.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yea handshakes the water.
Speaker 2 (49:52):
They's got a gold handshake the crowd and handshake very
polite the UK fans.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
So you can tease full thread and you've got in
your ideas for a move. I mean you could do
the sky tower, couldn't You would be quite cool, like
a big needle that kind of injects the other players.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
You could do like two people you stand up real
straight and the other person hug you around the middle,
like to make the middle.
Speaker 2 (50:12):
But for the fans in the stead if you score
a goal, though, I'd love to see a sky tower,
would it would be nice?
Speaker 1 (50:19):
What about a dance peddal dance battle they challenge the
opposition to a dance pedal, everyone in the stadiums having
to do Reagan. Yeah, you could do.
Speaker 4 (50:29):
Because the Australian is here.
Speaker 2 (50:31):
A New Zealand version of Rega. The Gritty took off
in the American football.
Speaker 4 (50:35):
You know the snake New Zealand, come on, or the caterpillar,
the key.
Speaker 1 (50:45):
We we just go hide away. Freak out,
This Gentleman Being podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Hey, that's us broad to you by Hello Fresh the
Experts and Tastes that kiwis love.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Welcome to the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
It's a great one for you today, but not necessarily
for you, Meghan, because you might not be getting presents
a Christmas.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
No, my husband's pitched a no present policy.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Yeah, and the audience were divided on this too. You'll
hear that coming up. And also what happens if you're
on tender and you're in a.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Relationship, well it probably you can imagine what happens and
shambalock moment even for us. We're in a package arrived
from China, blind sided all of us and I knew
nothing about it. But then you'll have that for you
right now.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Well, last week, being lost to sock and we went
on an elaborate campaign to try and retrieve the SoC
and there was a reward. Yeah, I did find us.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Street posters were up, we were all over social media
as well. Unfortunately, that sock, after many months, has not
seemed to be found. So I've just got a single sock,
like many other single socks around the country.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
We should hold a memorial service for that sock. Maybe
it's gone into hiding like Bloody Michael Jackson and Tupac.
You know how they said they're all living in Cuba.
Maybe a sock is with them. But yeah, as this
is all playing out last week, we had had a thought.
That's you know, in face of adversity, you must find opportunity,
(01:14):
that's what they say in these times. And we've found
a business opportunity. You losing a sock has sparked a
brand new business idea for the radio program. Okay, okay,
you will never lose a sock again. And a shipment
has just arrived from China in a very suspicious looking box.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
We know what it is, but no one's opened this.
We should have opened it and checked.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Before they do. They look like what you've ordered. There's
a lot of white in here. It doesn't know one
of those packages that the police hold up at the
press conferences. And this is what we've been decepted.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Found out sea floating off the back of a cargo
ship or something like.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
That would be waterproof. There's that much taper.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Okay, so you will never lose a sock either again. Okay.
The business ideas.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
That John o' pryor came up.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
With that's owned by the now. Oh dear god, what,
oh dear god, why are they like this? So there's
venomous hep. Anyway, my business idea was that we have
(02:28):
socks that come in peers of piers of three. Okay three,
we're not really a triple triplets. So then you lose one,
you've got a spear one. Now, each sock would have
John O been in Meghan written on it. Why are
you laughing, god?
Speaker 5 (02:42):
So what why does it say that?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Okay, so that was the idea to have Ben's name
on their Meghan's name and my name is three piers
of socks. No one would even lose a sock. Say
they say flavor the radio station. Why why come on here?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
I need Why do they say flavor the right station
so flavorable supports.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
There should be something in there I think we're doing.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
We're sharing song out of the These are all flavor socks.
Speaker 6 (03:15):
These are just given some flavor songs for me, mate flavor.
We should have checked me, we should, we should We'll
do another.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Okay, this is not how I saw this playing out. Okay,
this is my big moment come of a great business idea.
It was going to be the reveal. Bean was gonna go,
what three socks we're gonna give We're gonna have hundreds
stick aboy, listeners arted another radio station song.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
We can give hundreds away to listeners and say flavor
if you really want. But I'm going to.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Take responsibility for that as the producer. I should have
checked that.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I'm so sorry you shouldn't. There should have just been
a great reveal. You didn't need to check it when
ordered the socks. Well, we so m should tell Flavor
the socks have it arrived? Okay, Well, we'll hope you
do another real and infect you want a pair of socks.
They don't have to be flavor ones. Hoping your hours
are on the way. Well, we don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
We don't give them away yet. So far this is
one who wants the Flavor socks, give away the flavor.
So it's a pair of flavor song under the hats
for four eight seven as well.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Actually you could give it to your husband for Christmas.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, great, because you've got a bit of debate going
on at the moment about presence in the household.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Yeah, which is really annoyed me.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Ethan. Do you love do you love hip hop? And
R and B. You got two pairs of flavor socks, baby,
thank you so much. Wait till our socks drop change
the game? When do they get into the soccer game? Okay,
those socks are cooled to good.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Hey, so this morning, producer Grace has surprised us as
we arrived to work, right yeah, accosted us with a
question first thing in the morning, and I wasn't quite
ready for the question to be honest, I want to
that I bet you will, just said me, Well, this
is the thing. She had a sign as she was
following us that said if one of the show was
involved in a scam on the news, who would it be?
(06:13):
So we each got to answer as we arrived at work.
I was first, Meghan second, and John O third. Have
a listen.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
And he tell everyone about it. This is a great idea,
will h.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
John.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
John is most like I'm going to say, being boys
because he looks at the top person that wouldn't which
is the ideal scam artist. I bet everyone else said
me didn't they Yeah, I probably would have to be honest.
I just had to choose someone else that wasn't For years,
I was getting away with the remember of the parking
(06:51):
at the airport, Oh yeah you were Yeah, no morals
on that one, did you. I had a credit card
free parking, free parking. I don't know what had happen.
And there was a glitch in the matrix. Anyway. You'd
go for three four days in a row, sometimes a
week parking and then I'd tap my credit card. You
put the parking ticket, and when you ride back, tap
the credit card and say, oh, this isn't working, and
(07:12):
it would you take it out and said have a
nice day, and then I chip my credit card wasn't charged.
Went on for six to twelve months, and I see, Ben,
I'll pay for your parkings that I don't want to
be involved in you, especially at the airport. I've been
arrested at the airport. Yeah, because I've all paid the
nine hundred and twenty two for parking things. So that
was a great one over the parking the parking enforcement
(07:33):
for me. Yeah, you go, good scam.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
There were right the hits that johna Wan Ben podcast.

time for rowing. Yeah, Friday night, Friday night usual time.

my life is spent in the car on the laptop.

That's what you're gonna look forward to. Yeah, you get
over the fact that you're looking a laptop in your car. Well,

I'm like, well, just just emails, just some Gmail stuff,
just getting ahead of next week. He's like, oh yeah,
accusing me of maybe looking at some less than savory content.

very strange location in the car park of my son's
(09:17):
basketball Why people walking past, And I'm fully illuminated the
shocking conditions. To even begin to think about looking.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
At that waiting for my son to knock.

On the window would be very risky of me. Yeah,
And I mean, in any instance, who's looking at that
in their car? You're going to do that in private?
But everyone always issues or using his car. What is he?
You know your neighbors said the same thing to me.

stuck for like so many years without changing, Like, we

Anyway, it was good. That was fun. Now, Ellie, you've
come in with a part to a sequel to this.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
I have because it was so accurate and so great,
I thought this needs to be elevated, and I thought,
why not use AI once again and just make it
into a roast track. So I've done similar to what
you just did about ten minutes ago.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Sorry, more of the chances.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
It's okay, but it's quite a banger, and so I
just wanted to play you.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
This is now your AI roast and.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Song form like a rap battle. Say yeah it's a song? Yeah,
Well is it nicer in song form? Is it easier
to die? I think it might be worse good? And
you're trying too hard? Well, class crits.
Speaker 8 (12:26):
You're playing in that car key mid life, lost in
the free like two bron kids. Just waste in the teeth,

It's actually a bit easier to idea sweet it's not
read out. Yeah. Yeah, so what's the catch phrase? Too
(14:07):
chaotic meets midlife crisis?
Speaker 5 (14:08):
I think yeah, that song is called midlife full all right.
Speaker 7 (14:14):
Well, then we go the hits that jon Wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
And I was reading in the Weekend, as did you
Megan an article on Katy Perry's new album really got slammed,
isn't It?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
From Rolling Stone a one and a half star rating
and said it was flat and lots of awful things.
But I went into the comments and everyone was defending her,
saying that was really mean too.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
That's good. Yeah, I just felt I always thought of
those critics, will you go record an album there you go?
Flat lifeless as well? Yeah, I'm not going to sit
here and critique it exactly.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah, having never made an album before and myself, I'm
never going to critique someone else's album.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
You say she turns forty in a couple of weeks,
does she megan?
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Yeah, months ago.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
This is well. Welcome Katie, welcome to what you think
is the beginning of the end. But it's not. Because
on Instagram, I always feed to this lovely gentleman who
not like he is stuck in peak out of traffic
or something filming. It's a look at dell Alama, backed
up on the Southern Motorway, but filming wonderful life advice
he in his fifties and the advice you would give
(15:18):
his forty year old self.
Speaker 11 (15:20):
Okay, I'm fifty three. Here's advice I would give my
forty year old self. I remember turning forty thinking I'm old.
It's over, the game is over. So I spent my
forties feeling old. What's funny is when I turned fifty
it stopped. I felt very young for my age. I
was shocked at how active and great I felt at fifty,
and how excited I was about the world. So I
(15:40):
would go back and say, no, no, no, no, your fifties
are going to be incredible. Spend your forties just like
your thirties and your twenties, preparing, like, keep getting better
and keep being excited about all the things are gonna
happen to you. Because I honestly feel like I'm fifty
three and I haven't peaked yet. I haven't peaked in
my career, haven't peaked as a husband, hasn't haven't peaked
as a dad, haven't even peaked at the top of
my physical fitness. And I can still get So.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
You go, Katie Perry. Your best album is Get to Come.
Isn't that nice? So that's what you need on a
Monday morning? Yeah, some motivation, keep on digging it in.
You're still very young in your forties. There's still a
lot of life to live, isn't there. What do you
think it's been the best year of your life, of
this existence you've lived.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I reckon like thirty early thirties.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Why because I got divorced.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Fir enough. It's good time. It's a good year. You
have that marked in your chapter.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
In the chapter, Yeah, I do feel like it does
vary though, you know, like I like the carefree nature
of the twenties when you're you know, you're out yet going.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
You're traveling, all that's something less responsibility. But honestly, you're
in a nightclub and you're like, oh, it's only three
thirty in the morning.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
At three in the morning, now, yeah, something about that,
Like I love I love that, and then I also
love when you get older and you do, yeah, you
get the kids has been awesome and amazing and you know,
and some times responsibilities are awesome.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
You get to a better stage in your career. So
it really is hard to say it is you don't
know that you're living the next year of your life
when you're doing the best year of your life, do you?

He said some great stuff. When I had to think
about it, and I thought about one year, I thought
about when I was twenty five, i'd done my UNI,
I was in my profession. My husband got posted overseas.
I went with him, totally fully paid by the taxpayer,
and had an absolutely amazing time in the UK and
(19:32):
Europe and all of those things, and it was just
a care free time, no kids and plenty of money,
well money.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Thanks for the text pace, thanks to those text payers.
A great year, so good. Now where if you don't

fruits of your of your labor and your sixties. Oh
it's still great stuff. It's a hold little more to it,
and you're like fake enjoying it right now.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
The hits that jonavan Ben podcast was.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
This week thirty years ago that the first episode of
Friends came out.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Who is that thirty years ago? It's a great story
where I think the producers flew them all to Vegas,
didn't they before the show had started, and they I
think I saw it on some true Hollywood story and
they were on the plane and they said, this will
be the last time you'll be able to go out
in public without being recognized, and it was from that
day forward changed all their lives forever. Totally. Yeah, huge
(22:02):
iconic show. Probably one of the biggest series of all
time right now, Meghan, Dear Megan, this is an interesting
one involving Tinder.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
Me.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Someone slid into your DMS.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, okay, I'll read it to you. It doesn't involve Tender,
It says hi guys. I was wondering if you could
put this out there for a Dear Megan, I would
love to hear your listener's thoughts. My husband and I
have been married for almost two years, but I noticed
that he has downloaded Tender onto his phone again. We
met over Tinder, so I know you used to have
(22:33):
a profile, but once we got serious, we both deleted it.
When I hit him up about it, he said he'd
been using it to meet new friends.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Seems rock solid. This is what I say. There's no argument.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
I know you can use Tender to meet friends, but
I just don't know if I believe him. Do any
other guys use Tender to meet friends? He never told
me he was trying to meet new people, so I'm
a little skeptical. What do you guys think?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Well, you can't like, yeah, technically you can use tend to.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
He comes to Switzerland.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
It's a controversial platform to find friends on. I get why.
I get why she is a little bit suspicious of this.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
If you were if you two as men were looking
to find new guy friends, it's tender where you'd go.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
It's probably not.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
No, it's probably not where I go, but it is,
I would say it is. I think as you get older,
it's harder to make friends, you know, So I'm not
I'm not if there's genuine intentions, and I don't want
to put someone down for looking for it, but it's
probably not the first place I would go. I'd probably
find things that were I was interested in and maybe
go to places that other people would be for example.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
The Swingers Club Yeah, well yeah, or the Warriors.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
You know that warriors want to go you know a
place that's got the Warriors on telling things like that,
or go to a game.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Or things like that.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
So we've got the diplomatic answer, John O.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I'm at this stage in my life where I could
not handle any friends. I barely can't catch up with
the people that I know at the moment arriable friend
So finding new friends is not on the agenda for me.
But would I do it on Tinder? Probably not? Probably not,
to be honest, seems like it would just cause too
much headache.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
And I feel like that would be something you discussed
with your partner and be like, I feel like I
need more guy friends. I'm going to download Tinder to
try and find some guys, you know, or you'd be like,
I'm gonna we need to go out socially, or I'm
gonna you discuss it with your partner. For sure.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
The hard thing too, I reckon it'd be hard of
finding a friend on Tinder, because if you don't get
along as friends, it's not like you're breaking up with
someone that you're looking to get into a relationship with
where you're like, we're not compatible. We can't spend every
day together and live together. You have to break up
with a friend of like, oh, I don't think I
can be bothered catching up with you three or four
times a year sort of thing once a week, Like
(24:45):
that's a harder break up for me than a relationship one.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, so I won't have to do this.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
This This is the question. Can you be in a
relationship and still on Tinder.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Yeah, but you know, let's say for friendship purposes. I mean, yeah,
you might have a big question mark whether it's legit
or not.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
It's definitely not legit.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Can you flick it on friend mode?
Speaker 4 (25:07):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
None of us have had no, but you can't. You
can actually look for friends looking on it.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
But it would have been open about it.
Speaker 7 (25:15):
He did it on the slide the hits that jonaan
Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Someone has slid it into Meghan's themes again with a
bit of a dilemma. Meghan's well not buying the argument
from the partner here today.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
You're trying to be diplomatic, but you know him right.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
We're trying to build a case for this poor fellow,
trying to help.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You decide. You decide.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
He's basically well, these people have been married for almost
two years. She has noticed that he has downloaded Tender
onto his phone. She hit him up about it, and
he sees he's been using it to meet new friends.
She is skeptical, and I think as she should be,
because I don't know any adult men that would download
Tender just just to meet new guy friends.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And we're trying to come up with a defense of
this guy feel like blood. He did. He's lawyer. This
is a hiding to nothing, mate. You can't. You can't
use it for that.
Speaker 10 (26:04):
You can.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
But there's also another app called Friender which is just
specifically for that, So that would probably make a lot
more sense without the accnnotations that maybe, yeah, you're looking
for a relationship.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
On our Facebook. This is from GC, he said. As
a married man of two years, I've never used Tinder.
I would also never use Tender to meet you friends.
There's plenty of other ways to do that that doesn't
involve a notorious hookup app.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
What did you say? Friends one friender? Yeah, so going
to friender that would solve all this. You wouldn't even
be on the radio right now. We won't be talking
about this guy's issues on the radio. We're going to
get Aaron on the phone. Welcome Tinder and a relationship
if you're looking for friends, it's all above board eron
what do you say?
Speaker 12 (26:47):
No, not at all.
Speaker 9 (26:48):
That's sedating app for a reason.
Speaker 12 (26:50):
That's not a friendship. Friendship.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
So I'm with Megan.
Speaker 12 (26:54):
No partner would be happy with your partner on the friends.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I love getting the guy opinion on this, So I
don't just sound like I'm being mean.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
I appreciate that. Aaron.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
All right, we're going to hook you up for sixty
five dollars to spend a gift card for the warehouse.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
How did you meet your partner erin?
Speaker 11 (27:13):
I'm true, you're right, and.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
So you deleted it? Wait what stage into the relationship
do you get rid of the app?
Speaker 9 (27:20):
Oh? Pretty early on?
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Yeah? Is it like? Is it like, do you have
a conversation with each other as a time to delete this?
Put this in the bin?
Speaker 9 (27:28):
No?
Speaker 12 (27:28):
No, really, I think it's just just you just delete
it when when the times are I think.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah, okay, you know when the time's right. Oh, you're
so on that app. Someone's saying, I go on to
grinder to look for friends on four four eighty seven?
Is the text here? In no way there's more options
to make friends than tender. This is crazy. The friends
category is just to cover reads another text. Seems like
it's going to be a landslide victory here. Yeah. Sure
(27:57):
it was a flimsy case. Maybe and maybe, But my
advice sill would be don't waste the lawyers fees, mate,
honestly to take the Sean tell Hi, Yeah, are you
on our side.
Speaker 13 (28:10):
I'm with me, and.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
There was a small part of you that thinks maybe, maybe,
just maybe it could be used for friend purposes.
Speaker 12 (28:19):
I would have a set of My husband has turned
on his phone.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Too, especially since he never added to the profile before.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
I be like, was that what?
Speaker 12 (28:31):
No? I definitely agree should not be having it on
his phone at all.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Okay, no, no, oh, listen, this is probably a full
gone conclusion.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
You're going to hook you up for sixty five dollars
to spend at the warehouse. Every caller that gets on
the show this week we'll win. That's celebrating sixty five
years of Barbie.
Speaker 12 (28:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Do you even need to wrap up this time? Megan?
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Well, yeah, everyone knows it's a red flag. You're gonna
have to have a serious conversation with your partner because
it's a taining app And even worse, it's like it's
more like a hook up at.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Really, someone's coming with a big one here. He sounds
like a narcissist. I don't know how. I don't know
how they've landed there, But if you're having to go
on tender and look for friends, he would not feel
that comfortable if it was a partner was doing the
same thing. Yeah, and that's what you've got to ask yourself. Yeah,
and hey, thank you so much.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
A few calls and texts on this one, that johnaan
Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
On the weekend, you know, took the dog, big fluffy
white dog, both for a walker and the weekend, as
I do most most weekends. Took him for a walk
and usually, you know, you guys have your dogs. You
normally it's a one bag situation and go out. You've
got yourself covered. I having a bag, all good to
go now. He went pretty early on to his business.
Great early into the water and then great.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Walking past the bus stop where they had a council
bin was going. It was working.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
It was like, great, Dave, don't have to carry it
around for the rest of the trap. Put it in
the bin, disposed of that, and I thought things were
good until about halfway through our walk he was sort of,
you know, motioning to do it again.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
I'm you've had it on you.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Squeeze, squeeze outside someone's house too, you know, when this
thing's around.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
And I'm like, and he did his business, and I'm like,
and I've had been in that position to you're like, no, don't, don't, don't.
Like you're talking to them and then you realize they
don't understand it. What was it okay before and not
okay now?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
So he does his business now and I'm like, oh,
I don't want to be that person that leaves that,
you know, because he's a large dog. That's substantial. Yeah,
And so I sort of did this Panama. I didn't
know if anyone was listening, but I'm like, oh, come
back and pick it up, you know, to the you know,
I've got to come back. Try to remember the car
that was parked at the house and stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
And I wish i'd seen that, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Just yourself on your phone. Look, I said I was
going to come back on camera, so I was going
to look at you that guy still coming back, look
at this dog. I'll be put all over social media.
So so you didn't know if anyone was hearing this now,
but I sent it out to the universe.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
And then I walked all the way home with the dog.
I'm like, I'll be to go back. So it did,
and then drove drove the car back. Someone like, drove
the car back parked on the.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Side the right.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
I'm back to pick it up. And as I did
go to pick it up with the bag, this time
my sunglasses just tucked and around the top of your
ship and just fell directly into the Then I'm.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Like, the universe is supposed to be behind. You're like,
I came back.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I could have lifted there. I got it, but then
I had to Then you have to like fish the
together get stuck inside. This is just a demoralizing thing
for all of us.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
So yeah, when you have to put the back on
to drive the car, so what's the I don't know
what the lessen is there to go back trying to
go You're right, Megan, I was trying to do a
good thing.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Yeah, that would have looked so weird too. You see
a car pull over, get out, scoop up, a.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Dog announcing his back.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No dog, No dog's collecting, he's collecting.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
And then did you put in the bottle and take
the car? You're right, that's probably weirder than the first time.
Leave it a weird brown substance around.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Now, we just mentioned that till last week. We're looking
for Ben's missing sock, and we came up with a
business idea, So no one, you know, losing socks would
be a thing of the past. And we have peers
that come with spears. So you have socks that come
in threes. Yeah, okay, and if you lose any beyond that,
well that's on you. There's not much more we can do.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
So you've got some socks that the right box. You've
the right box. Now socks, not the favorite socks.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Shambalack opening ceremony just moments ago, and so inside shambala
then that French one when the painted that guy all blue.
So you get not just too, you get three socks.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
They've got the white socks, they've got the hats logo
all on one side, and then on the inside you've
got a JOHNO sock, a bean sock, and Amegan sock.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So they're coming three.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
So do you have just decide each morning what are
you gonna ask?
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, you could wear a bean in amegan, or you
can wear a John O and amighan or John o'an
been whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
But if you lose one, you've still got a spear. Yeah,
peers that come with spears.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Amazing.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Well, if you want some sock limited edition, very limited exclusive,
you can text four three seven. But if you get
hold of these, it might be some special things coming
up for you. Knows. Just during the song he's like,
he's got big plans for his socks. Yeah, tell you
what he's talking A festival and wait next year, so
October is going to be huge, guys. But I'll tell
(33:20):
you what's a bit of an issue in your household
at the moment. Is ninety three days out from Christmas.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Although you say that and I saw farmers have put
up their Christmas decoration display.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
That's a good gauge.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
So you're already talking about it in your household. You
love Christmas.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
We like to be very prepped. First November, Christmas tree
goes up, and I like to space out my Christmas shopping,
so I kind of start looking now, especially at the moment,
because you know, cost of limit, et cetera. So I
said to my husband, I was like, of recent years,
we've started to sit a limit so that we each
stick to it. But this year he was like, you know,
(33:57):
times are tough. He was pitching no present for us,
and I was like, wait, what do I open on
Christmas morning? And he was like, no, we don't need presents.
It's about the joy of like watching the kids open something.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
And it's a great it's a great argument that Andrew
Peppers has come out with. And he's not springing this
on you three days out. Yeah, he's given you time
to roll through the series of emotions, the anger, the frustration,
and then eventually you'll you'll come to terms with them.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
But I didn't realize how invested I was into the prison.
So I was like, oh, you know, Christmas isn't about
prisents about all the other stuff and the lead up. Sure,
but now I realize if I don't like get a
prison on Christmas Day, I don't know, it just doesn't
feel like Christmas.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
But then is this one of these things? And you
fell into this trap? You had a no present policy.
One year I stuck to it. My wife didn't. I
just saw one thing. I was like, no, you didn't.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
No, he will stick to it. He will. Have you
said it, He's going to stick to us.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
So the next time we did it about we need
to stick to this because I feel awkward. It's like, oh,
there's one thing. I'm like, listen, you listen. We're in
an agreement, and all the family are like Oh, that's
so nice to a man. I'm like, no, it's not.
Speaker 3 (35:07):
Yeah, you feel bad, like.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Put me on the spot.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
You feel bad not having a prison for her, but
at least you got to open something. If I got
ham a prison here to get meat one, I'd be
so annoyed.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Well. One of the joys about being a radio host
is you can solve your private issues on the spree
public platform and we get throw it out to the audience.
Oh eight hundred telephone number. Okay, the people's court is open.
Whose side are you on him? Meghan or Andrews.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
I was like, oh, we could even sit a limit
of like fifty bucks each, you know, and then like,
it's up to you.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
You could be like creative with it.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
You could make something as well, but like you sit
a limit, sure, but like no prisons.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
The People's quarter is open, Okay, you decide whether a
Megan gets prisons. This Christmas, this is on you. With
great power comes great responsibilities.
Speaker 7 (35:52):
The heads that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Meghan's already counting down to not only Daylight Savings this
coming weekend, but to Christmas already. Even Christmas competition conversations
or competitions.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
We usually set ourselves a limit for Christmas presents, me
and my husband, But this year he's pitched no presents,
cost of living, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Have you done that one where we all buy a
present for adults. We did that a couple of years ago,
so everyone just buys one gift.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
We do that with the extended family. We have a
secret center. We all buy one prison.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Then you could steal off other people. It's quite good.
Oh no, I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
So you open that, You're like, open that one, and
then afterwards I'm like, oh no, God, okay, you either
take their present or open a new one.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
It was kind of thing. Yeah, it feels like that
could create quite a tense Christmas Day. We did that
at a staff party once and everyone was trying to
snatch the money off some Yeah, so you decide whether
Megan gets prisons this Christmas. You're on team Andrew, who husband?
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Any tips you've got on how to like navigate this.
I did pitch fifty dollars limit, but he's still not
keing for that.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
What I like is the foresight from him. He's given
you enough time to meanly prepare yourself for zero presents,
and I mean, what more do you want you got
the most perfect husband. Okay, that's a prison.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
Enough perfect because he's pitching no present that.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
He's thinking of the overall cost of the household. Kim
hi Yah, Yeah, presents or no presents for in the
papa's household this Christmas.
Speaker 12 (37:15):
I'm definitely with me again. It's the thought of the
thoughtful mess behind it.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Ryan.
Speaker 12 (37:22):
Even if you guys did vouchers for each other for
a really nice experience or something, do you do together as.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
The stamily a coffee club? Coffee club teen for one
loyalty voucher?
Speaker 4 (37:35):
I think that's what Ken was meaning.
Speaker 12 (37:37):
Experience about a child, a child free date night.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
The coffee clubs hey had on You can appreciate that.
Since you're on air too, thanks to the Warehouse is
celebrating barbie sixty fifth anniversary. We're going to give you
sixty five dollars to spend at the Warehouse.
Speaker 12 (37:54):
Oh yeah, I can start my Christmas shopping.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
You can. But Ken, Andrew, that's the big question right now.
It's the People's Court this morning. We're going to get
Carrissa on. Welcome, Have I gone Carrissa? And have you
got Carissa on? Naomi here Caressa on Carissa, lovely to
have you on, Carissa. Are they having presents in Megan's
household this this Christmas?
Speaker 9 (38:17):
Yes, I think it's a good idea, even if you
set the limit.
Speaker 13 (38:20):
It's good for the kid's perspective of status.
Speaker 12 (38:22):
Adults getting prisons.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
No, just the kids. Do they really care? You think
the kids what? They're so focused on their presence.
Speaker 9 (38:29):
It's a good thing for them to learn that they're
not the only ones that they can how to give prison.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
To see I'm being a good parent by asking for prisons.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Not everyone's on your side, though, I'm on Andrews's side.
Christmas is for the kids. As you get older, you
should just be grateful to have a roof over your head,
just to.
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Still be here.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
You're right, still here, ready on that roof at home?
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Is there my husband?
Speaker 1 (38:53):
I think it was his number. Thank you so much
for your calls and text Well, let's take one more,
the decider. Let's get Naomi on. How are you Naomi?
Speaker 7 (39:01):
Hello?
Speaker 1 (39:02):
The people's court is open. Is Meghan getting Christmas presents
this year?
Speaker 12 (39:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (39:07):
Tea Andrew And since the South African accent as well,
he's South African, there's some sort of bond there, bonded.
Speaker 9 (39:16):
Over bil Oh, absolutely, absolutely no. We haven't done Christmas
presents for years. It's all about the kids really, you know,
we make birthdays special bye, No, I mean if it's
(39:37):
really a big deal. What we do, what we started
doing is friends and family and we get the kids
involved as well, and do you secret center. But we
make a little list and five things that you would
want with a limit, and the kids save up as
well so they get to buy for whoever. And you
know we do that, so Andrew, what.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
About no presence? For friends and family and just for me?
Speaker 2 (40:04):
The John and Ben Podcast, we like to play the
Internet outrage game. We each find a story on the
Internet and then we try and guess why there was outrage.
And I was gonna I'll kick things off, Megan. You've
been talking about my one all morning. I found this
great story in the weekend. Is that what you're outraged about?
Speaker 1 (40:21):
How I'm outraged because you talk my story about outrage?
But fair enough, it.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Has become news. It has become big news right now.
A zoo over in China, we're painting dogs to look
like pandas as panda beer.
Speaker 4 (40:32):
Cubs, a chow chow dogs, a big suffy white ones.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
They look very adorable. What pain do you use? Is
it kind of because you wouldn't want the water based
job because if it rains then they start dripping, so
you have for a spray paint or some animal friendly
paints there. How long they beginning away with this for.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, well now people have complained and now they've said, oh,
they're panda dogs.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
We really do look like.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Little pandas though are they cute? They're pretty cute.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
What's the outrage? Then?
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Well those people thought.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
They it does We'll put a picture up on that.
It's been for social are pretty cute, a pretty cute.
But then the dogs obviously, like we were just talking
moments ago about the dog with nature calls, they obviously
have a certain style that if you see a panda
cocking illegal something, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (41:21):
Can we could do this to bow you're a dog where.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
We could Yeah, I don't know, I don't know what
they are.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
That's okay to be painting animals up. So the internet's
outraged over the painting of dogs, Yeah, I can understand. Yeah,
I can understand where that comes from. So that's that's
my one today. So we'll move on from mine. It's
a volatile ecosystem of misinformation and outrage and a lot
of naked people too on the internet too.
Speaker 3 (41:43):
Well, this isn't anything thing to do with nudity. My
one has boss texting a worker while on holiday.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
What and the internet's outraged that this is our annual
leave lever alone.
Speaker 4 (41:55):
I think I saw this also, the text that they see.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Yes, I did see this. I saw this weekend. There
was a message while on holiday, and it was kind
of like it was an unnecessary message that would cause
a lot of anxiety, right.
Speaker 3 (42:07):
You two, Like when you're at weekends and holidays, you're
still like doing texts and work and stuff. So I
don't think like necessarily would have got you guys, you
work all the time.
Speaker 4 (42:16):
But it was what the texts?
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Yeah, yeah, the text.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
We had a visit from the area manager. So this
is the boss to the worker on holiday. We had
a visit from the area manager and he's pissed about
our figures. I think we're going to have some really
tough meetings when you get back.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
Don't worry about it right now. Don't worry about it
right now.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
It's going to be when you come back.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
I'll just worry about it the whole rest of my holiday.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Holiday. I love it. There's just a boss going this
is too much for me to hold on to. I'm
going to palm this off on.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Someone else literally said, don't worry about it while you're
on your break.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
So worry me about it. Yeah, that's okay. My outrage
simply is the Internet is outrage but also divided over
a lady buying her husband a gift. Have a think.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
So a lady brought her husband a gift and he
was ungrateful for it.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
What was it?
Speaker 4 (43:08):
What the gift was?
Speaker 1 (43:09):
Yes, he was driving to have a day of golf
with his friends. She was going out for lunch. Different,
She's like, you better come home. I bought you a gift.
And the gift was he had to go to the
hardware store and pick up a barbecue that she had
bought that he needed to assemble for dinner that night.
Speaker 7 (43:24):
And this is the jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Yeah on the Loose over the weekend in the christ
suburb of Hallswell, shocking residents as they were running through
backyards and across roads and stuff. Oh dear, literally quite
quite big deer too, very big deer. But I think
back into the wilderness now halls. Well, that's right, I
(43:53):
love yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
Ah. You know, terms and conditions. So when you're downloading
an app, has anyone in the history of downloading anything
ever read the terms and conditions or you've just blindly
gone I agree to everything that's in here.
Speaker 2 (44:08):
Sometimes I feel like when people make your sign it
at places, I feel pressure.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
For some reason, I just pretend, I pretend to read it.
You don't know what you're saying. You honestly have no
idea what you've just clicked to agree to it. It
could be babysitting duties for the next ten years when
anyone calls you. But I was doing the same thing.
I was downloading an AI website over the weekend, different friends. Yeah,
(44:38):
I agree to everything. But then I was like, oh,
there's pages and pages of terms and conditions here, and
I just I just clicked. I agree. I don't care.
I don't care what information they have on my phone.
I don't care. I don't care, and I should care.
So then I ended up writing a song about terms
and conditions and then put it into the AI webs
(45:00):
right after this Terms and Conditions. It was the inception
of terms of additions. Have listened to what it spent out.
This was about ninety seconds. It came back with us okay.
Speaker 2 (45:12):
Okay, fifty nine pages and tiny funks saying read me.
Speaker 13 (45:17):
But I'm notchalant.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
You're teasing me with your Teas and Sees.
Speaker 4 (45:21):
Let's cut to the chase and click.
Speaker 1 (45:23):
I I agree.
Speaker 9 (45:24):
I don't care if trying at tracks me has me
just throw your app at me.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
So many rules for your license agreement, but.

You and me both no, I won't read to the course.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
Okay, seven free for my in me as an insurance policy.
There's one hundred thousand words in Apple's conditions. You could
spend six months.
Speaker 9 (45:50):
In federal PRIs.
Speaker 10 (45:52):
So I was thinking this shot.
Speaker 7 (45:54):
I get up from this shut to Teas and you sees.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
I've read none of these three yes, s c S
two policies.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Yes.
Speaker 6 (46:06):
Really Now the chorus and you see is just launch gbaut.
Speaker 10 (46:11):
I'm up to page three and a half way through your.
Speaker 4 (46:15):
Sees and Sees.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
Quite robot you at the start, but amazing when you
got to the chorus, it was like, wow, ninety it
came back crazy, that's the top fifty.
Speaker 3 (46:26):
It was just like Taylor Seft or Miley Cyrus like
mashed up.
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Isn't it? What if I was an artist, I just
typed my lyrics into check GPT and go that's a
great melody and just do that and then sing that. Yeah.
But you never know where it's got it from.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
I guess it's the thing crazy like you're saying the
other day that because it's taking from everything else. So
then you know Houston and pay Yeah, thats exactly my song,
You're like, I know.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
I was playing it to the kids and I was like,
look at this, this is amazing. And I was waking
the kids up yesterday morning and they very unfazed by
the whole thing. But to us, this is.
Speaker 7 (47:03):
Mind the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Very excited to the Auckland f C. The new football
team are going to be playing in the A League
very shortly, be the Phoenix out of Wellington and all
the Auckland f C, the Black Knights out of Auckland,
and we're very excited about it.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
We're getting behind it here at the Hits. Yeah, and
media and PJ. I don't know if you've seen this
on social media. They have tasked themselves with coming up
with a move, like a celebratory move, something like what
the players and the crowd can do. Yeah, have a listen, guys,
So looking.
Speaker 3 (47:36):
For a new move that people can pull out at
the game, and we need to.
Speaker 4 (47:40):
Come up with some suggestion.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
They want this to basically unite everyone that goes to
the game with one simple move. Now, we can't leave
this in the hands of PJ. We can't leave her
to organize a move. She couldn't even organize herself to
get to the airport on Friday. She had to drive
six hours to where she needs to be broadcasting from.
So we can't Can we leave this on Pj's shoulders.
(48:03):
No to come up with to move because you know
the Wellington Phoenix, they've got tops off, wave them around
there to get the tops off at some stage in
the game. Very brave and those blistery conditions in Wellington too,
very cold. So I think we could do better than that.
Speaker 2 (48:15):
If you want to be part of football history, of course,
you can get tickets to the Auckland f c's our
first season.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
It's on sale now. Very excited about that.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
The open up or October nineteenth or the details at
Auckland FC Dot co dont need to, but you're right.
Speaker 1 (48:26):
We need to come up with some sort of move,
like a celebratory move. What's the one that all the
kids do with Ronaldo's Is it the move? Yeah? And
I see some sort of yeah, we sort of I'm
going to sound like very out of touch here.
Speaker 2 (48:40):
Isn't when he slided on the on the on the
knees and does that arm thing down from up down.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
Yeah, that's kind of like a cool move Ronaldo chop. Yeah,
someone's cooler.
Speaker 2 (48:50):
Yeah, but I think it's got another name for it, Sue. Yes,
So I thought it was something to do with this,
but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel.
Speaker 3 (48:58):
Like i'd dive down on my knees and just face
plant rather than like scared.
Speaker 2 (49:03):
There was one that football, yes, and the turf was
quite hard and did the same thing, and I think
he dissipated a knee cat celebrating because he.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Stopped it was another player trying to do the slide.
You want to check the conditions.
Speaker 4 (49:17):
And just check the grass like cake and slide even pre.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
Game just chick the durability of the year. So I mean,
we're going to come up with a move. What could
you do. What about a nice, classy, understated handshake, Well done, congratulations.
Speaker 2 (49:31):
The crowd do it the players. Just a good solid handshake.
Nothing you know, everyone knows what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Yeah, takes away from the excitement of the moment.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
High five, high.
Speaker 2 (49:42):
Five rescue for white people, hands and faces miss timed.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yea handshakes the water.
Speaker 2 (49:52):
They's got a gold handshake the crowd and handshake very
polite the UK fans.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
So you can tease full thread and you've got in
your ideas for a move. I mean you could do
the sky tower, couldn't You would be quite cool, like
a big needle that kind of injects the other players.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
You could do like two people you stand up real
straight and the other person hug you around the middle,
like to make the middle.
Speaker 2 (50:12):
But for the fans in the stead if you score
a goal, though, I'd love to see a sky tower,
would it would be nice?
Speaker 1 (50:19):
What about a dance peddal dance battle they challenge the
opposition to a dance pedal, everyone in the stadiums having
to do Reagan. Yeah, you could do.
Speaker 4 (50:29):
Because the Australian is here.
Speaker 2 (50:31):
A New Zealand version of Rega. The Gritty took off
in the American football.
Speaker 4 (50:35):
