Speaker 4 (06:21):
A friend of mine he started a company a few
years ago, and went in for the job interview, and
he got the job. It was fine, but then during
the interview, the person who was the manager that was
conducting the interview as well, have you got any hobbies
and or interests?
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Such a hard question.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
If I see to you you've got hobbies and interests.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
The movies, I don't know, but like everyone likes movies.
Speaker 4 (06:43):

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Have you got a hobby or interests?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I would probably just like I love watching sport. That's
probably something I might go to true you know, that
would be aby.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
That was what you were taught at sales course at
radio scool. Wouldn't you you go into a room if
you're selling something.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
You find that was the guy was the trout on
the wall. That's what he called it.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
So they if you saw a trout on the wall,
that was kind of you go, oh you like trout fishing.
That was kind of your connection.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
All right, you're in.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I did that when I tried to do sales at
broadcasting school, and I was.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Like, oh, you like Rugby because the guyd a Rugby picture.
The guy went yep, and that was the end of
that conversation. I never follow we didn't.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
So yeah, he was asked what's your hobby or interest
and he was like, damn it. At that stage of
his life, as hobby was going out on Friday night
and returning home Sunday evening. Yeah, okay, but he couldn't
say that in the job interview.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
So he's like, oh, he got kind of cast as
my back.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
He's like, he played water polo for like three or
four months in school, so he's like water polo. So
all of sudden, the guy's like oh you're nice, and
they had a little bit of band water polo ended
up getting the job first.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Forward as three.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Years down the track, Okay, a new CEO has started now,
the problem being that the CEO played represent of water polo. Okay,
now the manager who employed my friend, he's done the
trout on the wall theory. He's met the new CEO
and he's like, oh, you played representative water polo. Oh,
Timothy over here he plays water polo. And now four
(08:14):
weeks in every week the CEO is like, you must
come and play social water polo Thursday nights. We've got
a team of ex players. It's just a bit of fun,
bit of a laugh. He's had to come up with
excuses for the last month. That's why he can't be
able to play water polo, because he's he can't play
water polo.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
What a weird tidbit for the manager to remember too
after three years.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
This is well, not an unusual sport, but it's not
your every day. He's trying to make plays.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Water and you don't want to say no to the CEO.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
No you can't.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
You can't really say no to the CEO and water
polo is not like a you just pick it up.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
No, you need to know what you're doing.

of tugging.
Speaker 4 (09:04):

can't see what's happening anyway.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
And how they do it.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
CEO wants some tugging allday, not water polo.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
You're on the countdown to daylight saving.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Five weeks until daylight Savings.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
I feel like the weather roller coaster throughout the twelve
month period, just it stays just long enough.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
You know, we're like, I'm just getting over winter now.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
When you first get into winter, you're all nice, cozy,
warm clothes and you get over it and then.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Ah, there's light at the end. Of the tunnel. They've
done it well. Whoever came up with it and nailed it,
I have done it well. Now last night actually woke
up to something very unusual. My wife was doing. Now
she's sometimes.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You know, I'm sure we all do. You're occasionally talking
your sleep and things like that.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Yeah, but she's a very whistler in real life. You've
heard her whistles, Yeah, really loud.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
She's got the mouth of a Southland high country sheep farmer.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
She really does with the fingers. Everything so loud too,
like a concerts. Sometimes if I'm the other end of
a store, she's whistle and I'm like, I've heard it,
but I refuse to acknowledge it.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
You don't want to be beckened by a woof whistle.
Speaker 6 (10:20):
But you know it's did she do the same whistle?
Because we have a family whistle?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Like is it the same?
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Pretty much? It's just loud and really good. You're doing
it that she do it? Things you'll make but and
it's a great skill to have. No she does.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
You know, she does it in a supportive context as well,
like at the end of a song and a concept.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Siberian wolves. Here, Amanda's whistle's good. But last night and asleep,
I woke up to her whistling in a sleep. Now
it wasn't as.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Loud because she was sleeping, but she obviously fingers in
her mouth and trying.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
To get out she was doing.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
That wasn't a great one, and I think she was
because she's a teacher.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
I think she was dreaming about school because she was
talking about get off the quad or something that was.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
And I was like, you know what, you're half asleep.
I'm like, what it's like your quad days Thursdays? Me
off the quad? And then she was just like as well,
and I'm like wow.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Really that's where you know your teaching is really taking
over your life when you're teaching in your sleep as.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Well, like kids off the quad sort of things.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
So yeah, so it wasn't her greatest whistle, but I
was like, well, that's really unusual that she's she's.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Never off the clock, always keeping them off the quad.
That's right.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Probably if she was doing the full on the fingers
in the mountain.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Yeah, so I thought, very unusual.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Now, and you know the you know the champagne wolf
whistle too, which Amanda was doing in the middle wasn't there.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It wasn't there. Do you do you know you're walking,
say you're.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Walking past a worksite, Megan, and you hear a little
bit flattered.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I don't feel doing that anymore, anyone out a little
bit flittered.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
No, No, you just become very self conscious, so obnoxious.

about home security. And I go down and in my
sleep unlock the door, leave the door wide open. But
I was actually meant to go down meantally I think
and checked that it was lost, but you would open it.
Speaker 3 (12:31):

you where the Bogan genealogy runs thick.
Speaker 5 (18:36):

Speaker 6 (18:38):
I was at home by myself and I heard in
the distance what sounded like someone screaming, and I was
like what, SO stopped everything.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
I was doing soundtrack of We Stalk Contract.
Speaker 6 (18:51):
Exploding one of the so I stopped and I stood
there for him, and I was like, I'm sure, I'm
sure I imagine that.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
And then I heard and I was like, oh my god,
I heard someone screaming.
Speaker 6 (19:05):
And then there was, you know, like a beat, and
I was like, if I hear it again, I'm gonna
I'm gonna go out there and look, and it's I
heard it again and it sounded louder, it was like,
and I was like, oh no, I have to I
have to go out there and look because it sounded
like a female.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
And I was like, someone's in trouble.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
So I went running down the road towards the sound
and pictrified.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
I didn't take anything. I don't I don't even think
I took my phone with.

Well, if my husband was home, wuld have taken I
didn't even lock my door, didn't take my phone.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
I don't know what I was going to do. But
I went running towards the sound and I heard it
again as I got down the road that.
Speaker 6 (19:54):
It was the rubbish trucks, wheels, screak, squeaking as a ca.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Oh, I know that noise running.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
Down the road berefoot and the driver's like, are you okay?
Speaker 4 (20:06):

Oh no, I'm just I'm just looking for someone.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
And my go nah, just if you're running shoes on

road and beetling.
Speaker 3 (20:27):

Speaker 5 (20:40):
You're in We're Stalkland. It's not I was panicking.
Speaker 4 (20:44):

going doing something.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
I don't know what I was going to do, no phone,
no shoes, but hey, I was there.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
That's the Johan ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Just reading about a maccamare concert and Slovenia Slovakia sorry
over the weekend and he got someone on stage to
do a duet with him, and they were breaking about
it on social media as you would go on stage
with macamore.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
And the police saw the post and went, oh, they
wanted for a wrist person And did they nail that.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
I'm always one of those people are going to fold
or step up to the mark when they get pulled
up on stage.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
They nailed.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
They nailed the performance, but also the police nailed there.
It just seems like it's something that wasn't too high
on the you know, it was like public nudacy or something.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
That was It wasn't like that done.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Something too grim.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
But anyway, Yeah, but if you're a wanted man, the
last thing you want to be doing is topping on
stage for a Maclamore jewet going viral.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Yeah. Now, been you. You've been swept up in so
many supermarket campaigns over the years.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
What's been memorable ones for you?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
The dominoes have been good, the little gardens have been good,
the little shops and now the Disney cards literally.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
All the ones you just named to meet for children.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Yeah, I can remember the knives, you know, like the containers.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
These are all great promotions right now. The Disney cards,
I got swept up on it. My wife was like,
what are you doing? Because I bought the book I bought,
I got the cards and everything. I've been putting them
in the book as well, And I was really swept up,
and I started talking to you about getting it getting
involved in the fair again.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Have you have you purchased the album to slide the
cards into the album? How much was that? I'm it
doesn't matter, just how much.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I was, like eleven dollars about it came a three sets,
three sets a card. So I was like, yeah, trying
to upsell her on that.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
So the wonderful people always so got in touch and
they had a genius plan. They were like, what what
we might do is we'll just send Megan and you
full of albums, complete albums.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
With all of the collectible cards. And so they arrived
by a courier on.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
For box and you guys talking about the box and
I always won for Johnno went for me.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
And I was looking at the box.

hanging out with your wife. But they actually did see
you one and you got a full seat. I know,
so thank you very much to all.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Worst for that. Does that take away from the thrill
of Collick? Now?
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I'm we got the other set I'm still working on
as well, the battler set that I'm doing the old
fashioned way, and.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
The other one got one for me and one for
the kids.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
I would like to point out I did offer you
by seat, but I also knew that there was one
for you to give it to you.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
It's Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Emotional scenes at the Warriors on Friday night to the
last home game for Shawn Johnson very very tearing.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
It was when he walked out with his wonderful wife
Kayla and their children and started tearing up. I imagine
that would have been a big wave of emotion for him.
Stupid comment, John, Obviously it was, but and it's hard
to probably regather yourself from that moment then start tackling
mofos play a.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Rugby league game. But yeah, really really sad it was
a great seed off. You're right, Damn Meghan.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Now someone's slid Megan's DMS again. Worth a very well
juicy dilemma. I guess in some ways.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
They're like insensitive, which they address it, says, Hey, John,
Ivan and Meghan, this is a sensitive topic and involves
my best friend. Long story short, my friend and her
now ex husband were trying to have a baby and
they froze embryos during their time together. They broke up
and therefore didn't use them. Fast forward and my friend
(25:40):
ended up using one of the embryos herself, with the
permission from her ex as long as she agreed she
raised the child herself. He didn't want to be involved,
but now the child is too and she is asking
for child support.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
I'm support of her.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Of her that he was very clear that he would
give her the gift of a child, but didn't want
to be involved.
Speaker 5 (26:00):
That included giving.
Speaker 6 (26:01):
The child support. She keeps asking me for my opinion
and what she should do. But I can't help but
feel like she trapped him a wee bit and it
isn't really fair.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
But then again, here is the father. Should he pay?
Am I a bad friend for feeling like this?
Speaker 4 (26:17):
My first instinct is they had an arrangement they had
here has no obligation to pay. But then I've watched
a lot of judges duty over my years. She would say,
take the emotion out of it. What was the deal?
Was it written down?
Speaker 5 (26:30):
Was it written?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Was it contractual?
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Because then but if it was just he said, she said,
then arguably in the eyes of the law's he's got
an obligation.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
It does feel like exactly what you said. I don't
need to repeat exactly. You're my team, I am extually. Yeah,
like that does feel like it was the agreements?
Speaker 6 (26:50):
But did they did they get a contract, an actual
agreement drawn up?
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Well that hasn't been mentioned, which need you to believe?
Speaker 6 (26:58):
No, But is the verbal agree meant enough in the
eyes of the law in this situation?
Speaker 3 (27:04):
Does he have some sort of obligation you know and
someone or not?
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Well you would as even a bit Yeah, because are
you fast? Four ten fifteen years in this situation and
the child's growing up, what do you do then, because
this person might still be in and around, yeah, the house,
and you like, it gets messy.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
It does get very messy. But the question we're asking
is is he.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Obligated to pay child support off the back of this arrangement.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
I'd love to do what he has his thoughts changed
towards it.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
You know, has he met the child, does he feel
like maybe he wants to a part of their life.
Speaker 6 (27:39):
From a friend obviously, well, it sounds like they're not
at all in any kind of relationship.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
It reminds me of when I'm walking through Westfield More
and they're like, hey, sir, would you like to sign
up direct debit to save the starving chinchillas of Bolivia.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I'm like, yeah, okay, I'll help them.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
And then I canceled the direct debit a couple of
months later. But then they come knocking three years later
and they're like, that chinchilli you help save starving to
death now wants a house pay up?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Just like that.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
It's exact right.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
No part of me questioning that example, No part of
me got lost your example. We got a lot for
doing that example.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Than when you started, okay, so what okay, what do
we want to know here, Megan?
Speaker 1 (28:23):
What?
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Well, the friend wants to know? Is she a bad friend?
Fulfilling that that? Should the father technically should he be paying?
I guess what is the legalities around that too?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
If law?
Speaker 4 (28:33):
And so your friend probably wants to know she should
say something to her mate and so how you should
back off asking for child support.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
The heads that johonnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Unti Lydia co just overnight one whose third a golf
major and Saint Andrew's. It's such an amazing result after
a gold medal at the olymp but.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Crazy just over two million dollars prize money. But then
we were saying you average that out over a year's
worth of win that every tournament right has to pay
for coach flightsccommodations.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
But well done. That's incredible impressive stuff. Damn, Meghan.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
We're in the middle of today's dem Megan, which has
got to do with child support and an agreement. We
don't know how rock solid the agreement was, but just
a recap, Megan.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
So this is a friend messaging in about her friend
and ex husband. They were trying to have a baby,
their froze embryos, which they didn't use when they were
in a relationship.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
Fast forward, she asked if she.
Speaker 6 (29:27):
Could use the embryo to have the baby herself. The
verbal agreement, as far as we know, was that he
didn't want to be involved. Now that the baby's too,
the child's too, she is asking for child support, but
he said.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
He didn't want to do anything. I didn't want to
be involved in any way.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
And it's in his position I would be like again,
fast forward fifteen years and the kids growing up, and
he's joined a gang like the Tea Birds from Greece
or something, and he's like, you know, my best friend
wouldn't be Danny Zuker if you just paid child support.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
You know that would linger over me.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
The guilt of well you want to do? You want
to help out this kid? A paternal instinct exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, That's why I really love to know if he
wants to be more involved or not.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
What's the text machine saying there?
Speaker 6 (30:10):
Flooded he didn't actually have the physical situation to conceive
the child. She did that knowing he didn't want to
be with her or support her. No way should he
have to pay child support? Someone said, surely he had
to sign off on it. Well, it sounds like he did,
and if they didn't have a contract after that, then.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
Basically he's agreed to do it.
Speaker 6 (30:31):
This is someone that said, quoting a lawyer, a verbal
agreement is passable in a court of law, and this
would be sufficient to swing in the favor of the
father not having to pay child right.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
Well, but the question this morning, I guess is, does
this lady confront her friend and say, hey, back off
the child support demand's car you're on?
Speaker 3 (30:48):
How are you?
Speaker 8 (30:50):
I'm good now, my blood's not boiling so much?
Speaker 3 (30:53):
Were your blood?
Speaker 5 (30:56):
Your blood's boiling from? Who are you defending?
Speaker 10 (31:00):
Understanding him? Her friends should tell their friend should tell
her one hundred percent that it's not right. It's to me,
I feel like this woman has gotten older and she's
going kind of getting at the end of her kind
of being able to have kids situation possibly and embryosia.
He's done her a solid, you know, he's been a
(31:20):
good guy and said, yeah, okay, that's cool him and
heard the reasons, you know, were his his demands or
whatever you want to call them, and then she's just
got totally against that.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Yep. True. He was pretty clear by the sounds, but
pretty clear with his.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
Communication agreement there.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
Yeah, it's like if I see, as an example, walking
through Westfield and they're demanding money for chinchillas and Bolivia,
your blood boil.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
John, Thanks for the chinchilla example. That really cleared things
up for me. Martin. Yeah, good.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Do you think the friends should confront her mate and say, hey,
child support payments?
Speaker 3 (31:59):
No?
Speaker 11 (31:59):
No, no, definitely, I mean either want to text it
and it said, you know, you think they both would
have had to sign off on the ivy end ye,
And well, in my eyes, surely you'd get something written
down to say that it's not technically it's not going
to be my child kind of thing. But yeah, turn
(32:22):
around and say pull your ahead, and it's yeah, you know,
it's un fear on him if he didn't want to
him any more kids, or if he's in another marriage
with kids.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Yeah, well he did a favorite and it's come back
to bite.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
And do you know what, probably ninety percent of people
on the text machine are agreeing.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
So resolution, that's what we're going to say.
Speaker 6 (32:43):
But someone said, as his name on the birth certificate,
if it is, he probably has to pay childs.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
That johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Take a photo and put the photo off, just of
the foot. Yeah, I love the old foot phototototo.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Yeah, that's great for them. Congratulations, that's what they were
done for. That's what you were saying, was it.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
No, didn't you say they were done for?
Speaker 11 (33:05):
No?
Speaker 3 (33:05):
I did not.
Speaker 5 (33:08):
You've been pregnant for like nine months?
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Yeah, like they're done for vows. Yeah, we all say
stuff on the radio.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
I think that.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
We all say, like, you've just forgotten that.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
You see that the conversation with someone.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
May not be megan. It wasn't me.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Did you say Blake Lively was a joke?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
That's fine, that's fun. Worry you forget what you say? Sis? Uh,
tell you what you have forgotten.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
There's a phone case that turned up at your house
unexpectedly on a career.
Speaker 6 (33:48):
Turned up into one of those little bubble packages. It
was pretty non descript. And when I phoned the phone number,
or when I ticked the number, they said it wasn't for.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
Them Jackie, So wasn't Jackie?
Speaker 9 (33:59):
So?
Speaker 6 (33:59):
Yeah? Now I've got this phone case, a little blue
phone case with a pander on it.
Speaker 5 (34:03):
Riding a bike. We are trying to a sun's zed
or a sunrise.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
We're trying to find the rightful owner for this. So
if you do know a Jackie who's missing a phone case,
a novelty phone case in text four four eight seven.
We've got a lot of stuff on the gun at
the moment, we've got a torch. Won't turn off the
torch now, we need to do that before seven o'clock
a weekend.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Yeah, I know, I know, we'll We'll get.
Speaker 5 (34:23):
Myself going on disappointed when it's still.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
Going we got something.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
I mean, you're saying stuff about Beaver and you know Hailey,
and you know.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
There's a torch, there's the thing.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
But on Friday we've got talking about stuff that's turned
up at your house unexpected. Now Scotty phoned up and
he said, well, he was the one who turned up
at someone's house, his friend's house, because he hadn't heard
from him in.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
The week and he was worried. Never listened to this.
Speaker 11 (34:44):
Something wrong with him, you.
Speaker 10 (34:45):
Know what's going on?
Speaker 3 (34:46):
So I just thought i'd sharp with some bears.
Speaker 10 (34:48):
Walked into his house.
Speaker 11 (34:49):
And he was on his laptop and it was just
after five pm, so I just I just shut his laptop.
That what's going on and ends out he was in
a job interview.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Cut him off from his job, and you then called
the person back and they got the job in the end.
So happy, happy end for that one, Catherine, she phones through.
Speaker 12 (35:07):
It was a nice package, delicious snacks and nice chutneys
and dips and things like that. I was addressed to
the previous tenants who lived in our home before we
bought it. We thought, well, how would we ever get
it to them? We had no idea where they went,
so we decided to keep it ourselves. But then the
tenant turned up a couple of days after the package
(35:28):
came asking if we had reached.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Were not expressing you're eating like a good Yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
They had to go on a dumping mission in the
middle of the night to get rid of the stolen goods,
turning you with us, saw I ate under the heads
what turned up at your house unexpectedly?
Speaker 13 (35:45):
Then a guitar and Neils them Why yeah, my lad
and nine sensim and my brother is Neil, and I
carry it turned out and dropped office. Really fresh guitar
for Neil.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
And now you've got a piece of New Zealand music
history there, but a memorabilia well, he hasn't.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
Touched it yet.
Speaker 12 (36:05):
No, no, no, we returned.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
It to Neil or did you just take it back
to the courier company.
Speaker 12 (36:11):
We called the courier company and they said, oh my goodness,
it was supposed to go to Augland Nielsen.
Speaker 13 (36:16):
And then they came and picked it up, and then
Nielsen ring my brother Neil.
Speaker 12 (36:21):
Fint thank you.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Oh it's so lovely.
Speaker 13 (36:26):
I couldn't keep it.
Speaker 12 (36:27):
It was too fast.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
It's lovely they did. It's a great story. And did
you get tickets to a crowded house?
Speaker 1 (36:34):
No?
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Think that's a nice consolation. It wasn't his fault that
the guitar got to someone else. Yeah. True, we're suppose
to Neil a couple of times, haven't we. It's very funny,
very funny.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
But frightening to interview, only because he's such a legend
and you don't want it. You don't want to say
anything that makes him think less of you.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
And look every second word you say, we.
Speaker 13 (36:59):
Were just the guitar.
Speaker 12 (37:01):
We just put it in the corner and just didn't
touch it.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
That's a good Kiwi. Yeah, that's a good New Zealander
right there. Tanna, thank you are the backbone of what
this nation has founded on.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
That and beef and lamb. Thank you so much for
that amazing story.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
We'll give you some hel pizza. It's not as good
as a CD or a Neil phone.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
The heads that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
This is the Internet outrage, where we each find a
headline for the Internet that has caused outrage. It's easy
to outrage the Internet, isn't although I find it's like
very contradictory the Internet.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
And one day they can get all upperty and outraged
over the slightest little thing. But then we can go
on publicly bully.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
Summer, you know, legally sell Organs on the Internet's stuff
as well.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
It really is.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
It contradicts himself on multiple levels of the Internet. But
being you found a local bit of outrage.
Speaker 2 (37:50):
Yeah, so this is school sports sorry, like you know,
Saturday morning sports for school kids, and there was outrage
caused by parents.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
Now what would you think? And then why would there
be outrage? Where is it again?
Speaker 2 (38:03):
It's like Saturday morning sports you said in Nelson Nelson.
Speaker 5 (38:06):
Yeah, was it to do with the referee or the umpire?
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Usually that's what you'd be thinking, right enough? Not enough
buffo for the local Nelson crowd. You're from Nelson. They
demanded blood, don't they?
Speaker 5 (38:17):
All the referees associated with one team.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
That's what I was thinking. I was thinking, oh, there
would be outrage because something happened on the but this
didn't actually happen on the paddock.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
There were no beer. You couldn't take your own beers
to the kid sports game.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
I don't think you're abouted to do that, but that
could have caused outrage if someone didn't know that. What
happened was in the car park now, very busy car
park next to the sports ground, and someone had decided
to hold a car park for another member of their
family by standing in the cart.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
We feel about that.
Speaker 8 (38:46):
Yah.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
So they was a busy.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Car, busy car park, lots of people, people indicating to
try and get to the car park. This particular person
is standing in the car park and some busybody has
taking their phone out and recorded it.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
Classic that's all you need to do nowadays. Can't stand
in the car not trying to have an adult conversation.
It's just film everything.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
But lots of people coming in, lots of debate going on.
I think we've got some audio actually, but this is
lots of people, lots of people standing around people, heads
on HAPs so she's not budget, she's standing there and
they were coming around, lots of tea, potting, hands on
has body.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
You can't do those people indicating horns going.
Speaker 5 (39:25):
Is this in Sexan's field?
Speaker 3 (39:27):
I'm this is principal. Yeah, to reserve a park, I.
Speaker 5 (39:34):
Mean your standing in it.
Speaker 6 (39:37):
And also that gives people who have passengers and unfair advantage.
Like if I'm driving a car by myself, am I
not going to get a car park just because I
don't have someone who's going to stand in the park
and reserve it?
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Was someone was someone waiting to tune into the car?
Oh yeah, there was a huge line of people.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
She was.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Huge ballsy move to me the other day, Nimble, I
was like doing a reverse parallel part on someone's Someone
sneaked it the other way and I was like, I
didn't do anything about it, obviously New Zealander.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
Yeah, I didn't confront.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
I've seen some stuff in my car, but not to
their face though, Cause the outrage you've got, Jona, Okay,
here's a quick one. This is this is a bit
of an outrage over a relationship issue. Okay, this. This
is to do with a Tinder profile? Why would the
Internet be outraged over a gentleman's Tinder profile?
Speaker 5 (40:32):
Was that misogynistic or something?
Speaker 2 (40:35):
He wasn't holding a fresh fish up on the phone.
You normally you've got to hold a fresh up, don't
you holding dead?
Speaker 4 (40:39):
Catch this car the outrage over the internet. Now, his
girlfriend posted this on Reddit, which seems like the sensible
thing to do through your personal issues out to a
comment section. Wait, his girlfriend they met on Tinder. Okay, okay,
they met on Tinder three months into the relationship. He's
still got an active Tinder profile.
Speaker 6 (41:01):
As soon as you've got someone who's labeled a girlfriend
or boyfriend, you have to get rid of that.
Speaker 4 (41:08):
Maybe he's just there for the witty pickup lines and
the fun bios.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
Maybe I don't know what is that?
Speaker 7 (41:14):
Like?
Speaker 3 (41:14):
He shut it down as soon as you're official. Well
you think so, right, you lose it? Can you have
like a just browsing mode?
Speaker 1 (41:24):
That johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
Olympics a couple of weeks ago, and you know they
had their torch. We had a tenuous time. While we
try to make it a tenuous.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
Time, it was a torch ceremony that we ripped off
the Olympics and it is really it's turned into that
thing where you're like, why on earth did we start this?
Because the torch it's refusing to budge, it's running off
pure stubbornness.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
At the moment, the betteries haven't died.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
Over two and a half weeks now, we although we
have bridged the gap nicely between the Olympics and the Paralympics,
and we have we have you know, we've kept the thing.
We have kept it alive, which is good to the
Paralympics start this Thursday, which I'm excited. Yeah, I feel
like Topapa will want this torch when it's all done.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
Maybe it'll be like the Eifefel Tower of New Zealand.
Speaker 4 (42:07):
Everyone will come to New Zealand to see that the
battery powered torch that.
Speaker 3 (42:10):
Refuses to give in. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
So it's been over two weeks, two and a half
weeks now and it's been a weekend and meghum, you're like,
is the torch still going?
Speaker 6 (42:17):
I'm hoping it's not. But we've had like a few
days since we've checked.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
It's been We did check on Friday. Security here at
the company has been looking after it. Because they're on
twenty for hour watch. I think more on the torch
now than the building security at the moment.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
So Ben will take your eye into the phone. Hey,
you produce a grace.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Had of dream over the weekend that torch batteries had stopped,
So it was it a premonition?
Speaker 4 (42:39):
Well, I also think that maybe someone's pranking us, that
they keep rejuvenating the batteries and the torch.
Speaker 6 (42:45):
You say that, but we will warned that it's an
led torch and it can last for weeks. Someone even
said like a year or something, didn't they, So I
mean we were warned that it could last for ages.
Speaker 3 (42:56):
I'll tell you what torch curing all world peace? Isn't it?
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Just?
Speaker 3 (43:01):
Torch is doing everything for humanity? God's work.
Speaker 8 (43:03):
It is?
Speaker 3 (43:03):
It is. It's a climate change I think could be cured. Hello,
been crossing life to reception. It's still gone.
Speaker 5 (43:12):
You see the bloody reflect reflecting on the road.
Speaker 3 (43:15):
It's still gone. God goodness, are you thanking? You're not
putting your bettery?
Speaker 8 (43:25):
No answer to give me like that.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
It's even got a little note on the spine of
the torch.
Speaker 2 (43:30):
Guys, do not touch and do not turn the torch off.
Speaker 4 (43:33):
You know Gunjan is taking as you're very seriously, Uh
does Gunjan have any inkling as to win?
Speaker 3 (43:39):
The battery might die?
Speaker 11 (43:41):
Maybeeah, maybe swet still wait the way I mean, no
one knows.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
No, you're just going to turn it off.
Speaker 4 (43:48):
Yeah, you can hear the hisbury for some on Facebook.
Put your beds and when you think the torch is
going to run out anyone's guests.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
At the moment, it's still bright.
Speaker 6 (43:55):
Yeah, there's no sign that it's gonna.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
It's getting brighter. Yeah, it's not giving in.
