Speaker 1 (00:01):
With the John and Ben Podcast. Cheers to Delma making
the world a Bitter Tea.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Welcome to the podcast on a Friday, heading into the
weekend where we have to deal with some of the
fallouts from the hits Sanda Parade Float. I would have
thought something that was bringing joy to the masses could
bring so much debate behind the scenes.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Yeah, well we've got to resolve on that on the podcast.
You'll hear about that and producer Grace at the moment
currently got to Migraine. Now, I just wanted to bring
this up quickly. I've put her in touch with I've
given her contact details an acupunchy person. I go and
see it was like great stuff for migraines, but acupunchy
can be And I was like, what have did you
contact her? And she's like, no, she doesn't have a website.

(00:39):
And I don't like calling people. You don't like do
you do not like calling people?

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Either? Like I will if I have to, Like, I
would rather call someone than have someone call me, you know,
like like yes, I'd rather be like rather than going
to be done. One of the charge that person that's
I can call people easier than I can take a
phone call. Yeah, because I.

Speaker 4 (01:04):
See to her.

Speaker 5 (01:05):
I was just saying, oh, call for her, like, because
I'm in a bit of a calling erar. But you're right,
because I'm calling and I know why I'm calling them.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
I can do that for you.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
But even for Grace. From Grace's angle, you just need
to go I'd like to make an appointment. Yeah, yeah,
nine to thirty Tuesday. Yeah, that's the only conversation.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
That needs to take.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
Some people just find it like scary, what have we
done to the Wilder?

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, that's right. But nowadays it's hard to call people though.
You go, we talked about this before. You go to
a website, you're like we Sometimes you go to contact
us and you're like this isn't.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Going to have a phone number or an address.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
You're like, where do you reside?

Speaker 3 (01:40):
And then you get out there and is that clear box?

Speaker 2 (01:42):
And it's like see.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
More than you get a little.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Bounce back email going thank you, we'll see you email,
We'll get back to you within forty eight hours. You're like,
oh great, right now I need something sorted. So yeah,
that's that's that's the world.

Speaker 5 (01:55):
We'll you know, a good one yesterday is they stuffed
up my online grocery order that they didn't give me something.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
So I was like, how do I deal with this?
And I went to the order. You click on a
thing and you talk to a box and then leave
it with me.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
And then I got an email saying it's all sorted.
The money should go back into your bankyard.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
I didn't have to talk to you.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Chatbot looked all the jet.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
Yeah, DEALT with my issue.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
No T what's the number that lot right? You're like, yeah,
yourself something nice.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
All of us are probably the most loyal and consistent
employe that company's got, exactly, and we should be worried.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
A podcast, and if you've got a party trick, you'll
hear more on party tricks in the podcast. Let us know.
We'd love to hear from here. Think into the weekend
the Farmer's Santa Parade. It's the thirty third one this
week No, it's not sorry, it's the ninety first one
this weekend. That's here. I got that fact. So many
great milestones and we're celebrating, well, we were going to
be celebrating this weekend at the Farmer Santa Parades. Playing

(02:55):
a song on the float, going around for a couple
of hours until we found out that the song that
the Hits have decided to play was our song that
we're trying to avoid in the Christmas game, Mariah carries
All I Want for Christmas.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
Now, some are labeling at mismanagement, some are labing mellous behavior,
emails back and forth.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
I shan't enable it any of those things.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Basically got mad as all I'm going to say, woke culture.
Someone's throwing that out there. Even I bought that hic
away into it yesterday, which is making everyone new.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
You know that our boss is on hold right now?
Can you hear you?

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Get hear us? I just love winding because I'm out
of the game, so I don't have any skin in
the game. I'm just loving the drama and the four
days of wonderful radio continent with head out of this.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Our problem was not only does it eliminate us from
the game, but eliminates anyone else that is playing the game.
Now where the people actively eliminating people from the game.

Speaker 5 (03:47):
It's fine if you opt into the center barade and
you get eliminated elsewhere, but not by us.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
You can't eliminate you.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Now, This is what even used there. We spoke to
mend our boss going.

Speaker 6 (03:56):
To the Center parade on Sunday and expecting not to
hear right, Kerry is like someone fasting wandering into a buffet.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
It's not going to beat well, it's ability.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
We won't.

Speaker 5 (04:06):
You're just putting the song on the float. Blows us
all out, definitely again, as.

Speaker 6 (04:11):
I say, it's just taken up an absolutely an ordinate
amount of time.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
We'll then fix it, demands of fixer.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
There's been there's been a mud slinging, espionage, trees and terrorism,
you name it. It's adultery. It's all been part of
this campaign, is it. None of that has really I'm
just bringing up the drama and our boss, Matt joins
us back twenty four hours later.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
It's lovely to have you back on the show. Matt Anderson.

Speaker 6 (04:38):
Oh, it's lovely to be back. I enjoy starting a
Friday morning with claims of mismanagement.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
I didn't say that, John, I said everything stirring the
pot from the sidelines.

Speaker 6 (04:49):
So we're talking about himself in the third person again.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Now, yesterday we heard that your calendar was going to
be cleared and you were going to solve this issue
we had pitched maybe playing a different song over to
you met Anderson.

Speaker 6 (05:01):
Yeah, so it's been a big twenty four hours. I
mean you could probably call what has resulted in some
kind of task force of trying.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
To resolve wha what did you name the task force?

Speaker 6 (05:13):
No, we didn't have time.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Bps on different because the problem also was the dancers
had learned a routine to the song, and so changing
that at the last minute puts them out, puts them
out a step.

Speaker 6 (05:26):
Yeah, so look, we've we've taken the feedback on board.
As I said, it was a look, I still think
you guys are walking into the lions in on Sundays.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
But I didn't expect the Lion to be on the
flow with us.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
You know.

Speaker 6 (05:39):
Anyway, again, the feedback has been duly noticed and for
all of you to be able to sleep soundly for
the next couple of nights. Yes, event on Sunday. I
can confirm that there has been a late change to
the songs version.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
No, please, Dear God know I can.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
I can promise you. Very early in the meeting, Ben's
version was ruled out.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Thank you, Thank you from me, thank you from the
person singing about Thank you from New Zealand. Thank you.

Speaker 7 (06:08):
Yeah, so what song we go with so on Sundays.

Speaker 6 (06:11):
I mean, the dancers are going to be working through
the night for the next couple of days. Make sure
that they can be and think, you guys are going
to enjoy a good couple of hours of hearing Brutie
Springsteen sing about a big guy coming to town.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
Oh codiful version. Now, I just find it in there.
That's a good song.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
That's great, that's great. I'm happy with us. It's a
great result. It's a great result from New Zealand. So
thank you, Matt.

Speaker 4 (06:42):
I just want to point out, Mariah Cares is one
hundred and fifty beats for a minute. This is one
hundred and forty seven.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Megan, just take the wed mates, take the mean the
dancers are going to be a full night. It's another
song of the dancers.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
Geez, all right, Well, I was going to say, you
don't want to know how much drama those three bpm.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Nowmed Anderson. Also, since we've got the boss on here,
it would feel appropriate to play Bruce Springsteen Santa Claus
is coming to town.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
Well, you know what, it'll give the dancers an extra practice.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
What I love at the start of the song is
the banter between Bruce and the Bears You'll being good
and there's even a huh. They haven't quite now the banter,
but it's a great song. We'll hear it multiple times
this weekend.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
Listen. I'm going to into you in Kiwi Bank New
Zealander of the Year and the best Manager category the
Amed Anderson well done on closing this loop, as they say,
and fixing the issue.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
The hats that johonaan Ben podcast with us.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
This morning as we hit into another weekend. And then
you notice something on the sash that is blown up
going viral as they say, from economists bred awesome friend
of the show, yeah, and friend of us personally as well.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
What do you want to borrow something from them? Pick
you up from the airport or anything like that? Bread
so I know you're an economist, cover a couple of
bucks there.

Speaker 7 (07:56):
Look, I'd probably rather rather not the economy at the moment.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Yeah. Firstly, before we get into the big issues, what
you put on social media? How's the economy looking? Sweeping
generalization for three words? In three words, how's the economy tough?

Speaker 8 (08:12):
But looking up? Can I four?

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Have you survived to twenty five. I hear a lot
of that. Is that actually a good thing to be
doing right now?

Speaker 7 (08:20):
Yeah, look, it's pretty normal. I mean going across the
country spending activity jobs and that they're not great at
the moment. But of course interest rates are falling, so
you know, give it six to nine months, a lot
of households are going to refix onto lower mortgage rates.
They'll have a bit more money. Things will look up
probably from about mid next year. But still a lot
of tough conditions out there for people.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Now you're combining my two loves economics and one and
a half star food rating snacks because you've veered off
into what is the favorite flavor of the arn it
shapes and it's blowing up.

Speaker 7 (08:56):
It did it? I mean it got huge. I've been
talking to friends recently. Was out with some friends in
Auckland a couple of weeks ago. We were going shopping.
You know, you get to the snack aisle and there
was a little bit of a friendship bust up over
what we're going to put in the trolley. I was right,
of course, my friend was wrong, or so I thought.
And then about a week later I talked to another

(09:18):
friend about you know shapes, just think it was a
normal conversation. And again, you know, completely different views. And
I thought, well, again, am I wrong? Or are my
friends wrong?

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Now?

Speaker 7 (09:27):
I'd normally like to back myself, but I thought I
should put it out to the people. So I did
a poll on Instagram, and honestly a lot of different
views there. I mean, what are all three of your
favorites there?

Speaker 5 (09:38):
Well, it's hard because there's the classics and these the
new ones. So classics, I'm a cheese and bacon girl.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Why yeah, I see, I would have gone og barbecue,
not the new healthy barbecue they tried to push on good.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
I'm creepy chicken.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Can you be a creepy chicken?

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Now?

Speaker 2 (09:53):
You had to run two poles, brand I saw you
run your first pole, and then you had to run
like a side pole as well, because more pe people
were annoyed that you didn't actually have their options.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
Well, this is the thing. People get very very hot
under the collar about their shape flavor, and so you're right.
I put up that the first pole had, like you say,
the ogs, barbecue, pizza, chicken, crimpy and cheese and bacon.
And then I had a few people message and be like,
have you tried Narcho cheese? You don't know what you're
missing out on in life, And I said, oh, okay,
So I put on another one that I think had

(10:25):
cheddar the sort of like Visumite one Narcho cheese, and
then I was like, no, actually, the OG's a best.
And to be fair, that second pole it was for
like five friends that I didn't really want to lose
my entire friendship with. But I was like, I think
you're wrong, and the poles sort of showed it because
those OG's very very much what people were looking at.
But the results did surprise, So the likes of Chicken

(10:48):
Crimpy was the winner thirty four percent of people coming through,
pizza at second, twenty six percent, cheese and bacon third
at twenty one, and barbecue down at eighteen, which tells
me that I was right, but only a very small
number of my sins are also right with me. Because
I'm a big barbecue sand barbee.

Speaker 5 (11:05):
I wouldn't have been I would have switched that pole
completely around. Yeah, barbecue and cheese and bacon.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
And Anderson, our boss, said his kids in love with
Chicken Crimpy. He feels like it's like eating jibb bolpi.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
Is such a like a vanilla choice.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
Can I check something out here? We did a wonderful
campaign with n IT Shapes in the studio and they
introduced a whole new flavor range. Now my new favorite.
I still love barbecue, but then I bounced off into
sweet chili.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
So it's the fully loaded range and that is the
sweet chili.

Speaker 7 (11:39):
To die.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Have you tried that bread? You need to do a
pole on their lit fully loaded range.

Speaker 9 (11:44):
Yeah, well it's now on.

Speaker 7 (11:46):
But I think the thing here, right is that the
og is that they sort of just like you just
eat them and you know, they just a good snack.
I feel like a full loaded range, you know you
need you need like or something listeners. It's sort of
a bougier option, which is quite nice on a Saturday afternoon,
you know, down with a drink out in the sun
on the deck or something. So I'll consider it. I'll
take it back to the polling machine. I didn't realize

(12:06):
that my social media was now going to become sort of,
you know, a bit of a sense check on the
nation that's.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
National news brand.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
We appreciate the hits that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
I want to know the best flavor of shapes this morning. Yeah,
I know this bigress us in the world right now,
but this is the one we're going to solve first.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
Yeah, okay, el one has a little bit more weight
because it came from a respected economist.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
This is just filler radio BANDA.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Can I just say we're gonna We're gonna go slightly
rogue and everyone that gets on the air this morning,
we'll go in the drawer for the Wicked Holiday to
the Gold Coast thanks to the new movie Wicked. Because
it's the final day to day it's given away with
Maddie and PJ.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Okay, you're so favorite flavor. Now we've all divided being
you're a chicken choose.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
To being a basic be by Megan.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
That is that you hit it on the head.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
That is the ready salted flavor of But it's not
ready solted.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
It's got.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
I will die.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
But saying it's like it doesn't it does already sold it.
I agree with you. It's bland and it needs something else,
but not chicken crippy.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
All the flavors are great. You just have your favorites.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
I don't say it.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
I judge someone who has chicken you like cheese and bacon,
Cheese and bacon, even cheddar.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Cheese and Bacon's coming through. Definitely, Chicken Crimpy is coming
through a lot of times as well.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Now Brad Olsen, the economist who we just spoke to,
he launched this on his social media. Chicken Crimpy one
and cheese and bacon second, and barbecue Chase, which I
would have thought would have been putting in at number one,
is waiting on the list number four or five.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Pizza was sick and too.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
By the way, oh Peter, sorry, so eight hundred the
hat slits open this up. The worst thing is you
can't every time I open a packet, it shapes. You
can't stop.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
Worse than pringles.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
Yeah, you can't stop.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
Should be their catch, right.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
And then you sit there in silence afterwards, and you're like,
all right, time to get my life back on track.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Reset.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
And then you look at the serving size.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
And it's late.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Dian, How are you?

Speaker 9 (13:53):
I'm good?

Speaker 6 (13:54):
Thank you?

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Are you agreeing with the pole?

Speaker 3 (13:56):
Diane? Should Chicken Crimpy be the king of the castle,
the king of this one all food pyramid that is
the shaped range.

Speaker 10 (14:03):
Definitely, It's always been a favorite in the house.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
Would you say, I would not say. It's a really
salted of the shapes.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
It's her favorites, but it's got flats.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Ready sold, has got no flav Do you have it
with a dip?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
You're gonna call Diana basic bee.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
What dip do you put with shapes?

Speaker 4 (14:22):
I don't know anything.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
Exactly. It's really st Absolutely.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
They say flavor you can see. I can't see the
chicken flavor.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Flavor.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Let's get out em on morning chicken crimpy, your chicken creppy.

Speaker 8 (14:37):
Hick no cheese and bacon.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
On that one flavor you can see the bacon bits
flavor you can see.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Do you demand to see the flavor?

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Do you know that the claim right? They've got a
live up to the claim. Sophia, what are you coming
in with chicken crimps?

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Definitely not.

Speaker 8 (14:55):
It has to be cheese bacon coming through as well.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Everyone in the drawer for their working holiday too. That
gets on the air. This morning barbecue was so popular.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
I think they discontinued barbecue.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
We were we were with them when they did that.
They're like, hey, guys, we want to make a healthy
a version of it. So they put their healthy one
out in boy did they get some back lesh.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
It was nasty.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
People just had their favorites. They're like, where's my favorite one?

Speaker 3 (15:21):
You know, so we'd post any video unrelated to shapes then,
just because they were sponsoring a show on our Facebook,
and all the comments would be likeleyttle barbecue had nothing
to do with the very patient. They're all right, we'll
bring it back. Justine morning, How are you? Justine?

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Have I had?

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Lisa? Sorry, Lisa, what do you want?

Speaker 6 (15:43):
Bacon?

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Lisa? It feels like cheese and bacon and chicken Crimpy.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
Out there to get into.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
This reminds me of you selection. I feel like cheese
and bacon are running away with it.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
You're like an independent party.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
I think Crimpy would be Trump that you could labor chicken.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
Crimp don't know. We had three a piece at the moment.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
It's well, well, there's so many calls covering through Justine, Hi.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
What are you voting for?

Speaker 4 (16:14):
No, we're three a piece now, she's.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
So competitive, your competitive, but like, we need to wrap
this up for twe you've got the one, Megan.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
There we go, just to wrap the heads that John
and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
Today Morning heating into the weekends, which is pretty exciting
as we.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Know, you just sound like you're swallowed gravel. Yeah, that's
going on with this husky toe.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
A little bit husky I. I hosted Louis thing for
PlayStation last night. The Skytower was actually really cool, but
it was non stop me talking in the rain for
parts for you know, for about three or four hours,
just me what.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Were you covering off?

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Also, you just banter talking to people, you know, it
was fun.

Speaker 4 (16:47):
Is that why the Skytower is blue and white?

Speaker 2 (16:49):
Yeah? They had this thing so basically like a like
a well we said, we said, I see it for
a strong man game, but it's a strong person game.
It's twenty twenty four guys. Yeah, you know you go
run strong you know, you go to a carnival and
you'd have a hammer and you'd hit the little pad
and then it would go the thing would go up
and how hard you hit it was, how hard the
thing would go up. Well, they managed to do one
with a pad that would would basically show you how

(17:11):
strong you were on the sky Tower. So we'd go
all the way with these lasers. Amazing sort of technology.
I don't know how they did it up on the Skytower.
So people would had a pad and it would go
up on right up the top. You could see it
all around Auckland. It was actually really really cool thing
the PlayStation did. So it was like three or four
hours of doing that, which is great. I was chatting
away to people and at the end it's probably about
eleven thirty all wrapped up. It was a really fun night.

(17:34):
But then I was like, all right, I see you
guys laid up a bit of go, you know, because
we've got a nearly start. And they were like, you
haven't had a go and I was like, oh, thank you.
I mean, it's so lovely that they wanted me to
have a go because it's one night only. And I
was like, oh, that's okay. And they were like, hey,
you need to have a go. I was like, okay,
you know, I have a go. It's a few people around.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
I needed to go.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
It was so lovely and I mean, you know the people.
So one hundred was the maximum score. And there were
some people one legend with and didn't happen very often.
One legend with one he had a broken arm. This
guy he must have been made twenty years old. He
had broken arm. So he just did it one handed
and he got a hundred. That was only probably a
handful of people over three or four hours that got
a hundred. I was like, oh my god, so big
dudes getting weren't getting a hundred. But he got a

(18:15):
hundred and that was impressive that. I was like, Wow,
to be honest, look at me. I'm not going to
go that great, but I'll give it a go. He
got yes, I had to go, and I got like
thirty something and I was like okay, and everybone's like, hey,
you know, can I go now? And then the guy
who had organized it was a hang on a second,
hang on a second, and he got laptop out and
he was doing some stuff. He's just wait there. He

(18:36):
turned and he was like, have another goid, have another
go bin And I was like oh, and I was like,
what have you done? If you put it on easy mode?
And he sort of gave me a little wink and
a little nod like so he changed it from everyone
was doing so yeah. I was like, okay, here we go.
All right, this will be my moment. Stepped up sixty
two and he was like, oh that was easy mode, card,

(19:00):
I don't do anymore for you like that. I was
following it up there myself and I'm like, you know,
the biggest hat that I've ever done. I'm like, well,
well there you.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
Go, guys.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
That was on Easy Boy.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
You should have got My mouth's tired.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
I've done a lot of talking. Yeah, so yeah, me,
I'm not strength. It's not my forte. My voice not
my forte. I get nervous around you know. You go
the okay, they've got the punching bags. Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
I never like doing those, Yeah, because you feel like
you're on display, because someone's lining up for you. Really
go in public with that performance.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
Anyone can see if you put on a lot of
effort and it doesn't.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
It doesn't quite work, and you don't want to put
on too much effer ye the same time you do
cool fine line.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Someone was saying for that one. The punching bag is
about the angle of where you hit it and how
it hits up or something. There's some sort of technique
behind it, but I.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Won't ever know, because I'm never going to put myself
in their position, and I probably will and probably do
very badly. You didn't even at the just dangling there.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
It came back and happened. The face knocked him out
it was weird, like one tonsils Johnoan Ben podcast to
your friend of mine. I caught up with him the
other day and he was like, am I okay to
feel a bit annoyed by the situation, just a little bit.
He he's got like a work, he's got really good
friends with so many works with him. For like two years.
He'd been talking to him a lot about these group

(20:16):
of dads that's a really cool thing. They meet up
like once a month and they have dad beers, So
all the dads get together, and he was never allowed
to go because he's not a dad. He's like, okay,
that's fine, but hear about the dad beers and we're going,
you know. And now he's had a kid, and he's
got a kid and he gets to go along to
the dead bees. He's like, great, I've been waiting two
years for this.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
So when he's you know, if he did come without
a child, is it can he allowed just beers without
the word.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
They were like, no, it's dad beers. This is what
we do, the Dad's group of dads catching You won't understand. Yeah,
And so he'd be like hearing about this thing. Finally
had a cared after two years. Hearing about it, He's like, great,
not the reason he had a kid, but one of
the bet good motivation he can get to go with
Dad beers. And then he was like another guy brought
along another guy they say his name is Mike. I
don't know his name. So they brought it on Mike
the other day and he's like, oh, so, how old

(21:00):
are your kids? And Mike's like, oh, I don't have
any kids. And then he was like, well hang on.
And then I was like, well, Mike's a good guy
like Mike's.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
He just wanted me.

Speaker 4 (21:09):
Absolutely, he's allowed to be paid.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Because he said to the other dance He's like, hey,
Mike doesn't have any kids, and they're like, yeah, we know,
but he's a he's a charismatic fucking guy about the dead. Yeah,
he was every right to be annoyed.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
But two years and this is the reason they gave him.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
That's what I thought too.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
I had to find a partner and I had to
convince them that I wanted to make a baby a
big play just for Dad bees right, and I know
the rules of play.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
To him, I thought, as well, I agree with you,
But he asked me and I was like yeah, I
feel like in this situation he's like, but to be honest,
Michael or whoever his name is, Mike is a great.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
Great hess.

Speaker 4 (21:46):
You feel like a jerk trying to check Mike.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
You can't come to the dead. We love Mike, so
you're probably right.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
It's probably just going to be is now thes that
John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 5 (21:58):
We're doing our Sander picture this weekend, the famous Smith
and Cowey's which they're not doing.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
They think this is the last one.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
This is the last one. That's pretty awesome actually if.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
You get the whole grotto and stuff.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
But they have kind of seen this is the last one,
and it's fully booked out and it has been for agents.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
You might get one or two spaces, but I booked this.
I literally think months ago.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
Can I ask what a grotto is? Because how can
we have Santa's grotto? And also the Playboy.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Grotto doesn't sound grotto.

Speaker 5 (22:26):
I don't know what the definition? Two very different into
the stream. You go up into like a winter wonderland
and you walk through this whole.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Area and it's artificial cave.

Speaker 4 (22:35):
Okay, exactly what it is. There's a winter wonderland.

Speaker 5 (22:39):
There's like a forest, of trees and then you go
and meet Santa. And we've done it every year since
my son was born.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
So I think this is our four lovely wonderful tradition.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Yeah, and they do it.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
It is a magical wonderland, isn't it when you meet Santa,
even going to the moor. I saw people at the
moor yesterday getting this and the kids love it.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Love.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
But we I do a lot of I've got a
lot of Christmas traditions, and as the kids are getting
like now I've got two kids and they're getting older,
the traditions are becoming hard because it's just more Admond.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
But one thing we've done, you're going to cringe every
time we get to see.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
It because you're like the Santa phoo, are you going
to crunch it? But like we're so far not crunching,
enjoying it.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
We've done it all of us.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
We're matching outfits.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
I know him and outfits. Yeah, my family would cringe,
but I'd be like, come on, guys.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
Just so I was like, oh, it's tomorrow and we
haven't figured out our outfits, and I'm like, okay, what
are we going to do?

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Going all out? We talking like Peter Alexander pajamas and
things like that.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
No, we'll probably just go with the color thing. So
we're all were the same.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
You could go push it further. I'm saying, he pushes
novel from Once with a Christmas tree outfits mix the center.
That's with the cos I got my phono and my
family just like you just get the photo brown a
Christmas tree. I tend to be fair. I did until
I got there. I put it on, but then I

(24:05):
was like, can I get one? And my family's like,
you're on your own, but me and Santa got one,
and then I got a family photo without the Christmas.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
Tree on Santa's face couldn't get any red.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Sorry, but yeah, so that's the beanchmark mean.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
Okay, so yeah, it's not quite as bad as that message.
Her husband is like, oh, do you think we have
to I'm like absolutely.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
He doesn't want to go match.

Speaker 5 (24:25):
It's just like it's a lot of eminence tomorrow, like, well,
youn just wear whatever. I'm like, no, no, we're going
like white or like blue or like one year we
did denim.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
We all.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
It's fine, and the split stick into the photo. You
get the funny photo. But then you gotta get the car.

Speaker 4 (24:43):
It's funny.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
She's not trying to make you funny, not like me,
I know.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
And then your kid doesn't want to wear it. You're
like holding them down trying.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
To do this year's theme. It's like the MiG Gala Christmas.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Was it double the hits that Jonaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
He now the song Mariah Carey that we're trying to avoid.
You guys are playing as well. Some of you are
out of the game. Some of you are still in
the game. When you hear all I Want for Christmas,
you're out of our Christmas game. There was high drama
about the Santa Parade float. It was going to be
our song for two hours. We've now got a resolution.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
On that, Yeah we do. We spoke to Matt our
boss just an hour ago and he's agreed to change
the song on the float. There was a bit of
a hesitation because the dancing community had learnt their routine,
their steps to All I Want for Christmas, and they've
figured out that the dancers can stay away for forty
eight hours and learn a new dance to this song.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
We'll switch that out.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
That problem, so one problem.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Solved, but another problem has read its ugly Christmas head
yesterday on the Hits station.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
Now the wonderful Haley Bath hosts the day show here
on the Hits and in a moment of madness, that's
all I can describe it, a moment of madness. She
was talking about Mariah Kerry Rescue to begin with, and
we had publicly stated multiple times, this is your safe space.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
That's safe space.

Speaker 5 (26:07):
You're right, sweeping generalization of all shows. This is as
a station, a safe place.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
So she's done some wonderful research with thorough research into
the annual sales figures and the revenue figures for that
Mariah receives from that song. Okay, so this is Hailey Yesterday.
That's fine. Great, I'm out of the game. I've I've
got no concerns, but there has been censored for you
and those who are still in the game. Have a listen.
We have got this one. Then she starts playing the song,

(26:34):
relaying the amazing statistics around the song, how much you know,
streams against how much revenue pulls and Mariah and Haley
here to explain all. Welcome. Haley.

Speaker 10 (26:45):
I was hoping my phone line would cut out and
then you screw up the phones again.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Not on this case, Hailey. I am on fire today
with Sabrina Carbon and Batsam's in fact, the phone's nothing's
gone wrong.

Speaker 9 (27:02):
I'm thinking I've got fifty fifty chances and not even
going up to my mistake here.

Speaker 11 (27:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Yeah, we could have easily hung up on you, but
you're on here. What do you want to say? A
brain fade.

Speaker 9 (27:13):
In my discinience, I'd had about three hours sleep and
it's really hard to fill a six hour content show
by myself.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
You are right, Yeah, so you've been there before.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
Do you you know about it though, because you've been
talking about it on your show.

Speaker 10 (27:30):
Yeah, So one heaven is that I had a brain
fat and I was talking about it. Has she makes
five million dollars just for royalties every Christmas, and I
paid a slipper and then I realized.

Speaker 9 (27:42):
Straight up and it was too late. And then the
bad thing is a listener takes it and she's like,
the heads are supposed to be a safe okay.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
A safe space, a safe haven.

Speaker 9 (27:54):
Yeah, and I've been trying to like pardon people on
the text machine like royalty thing.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
It's just Mariah herself can pardon from the Christmas game.
I thank you.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Even people in the office like we're all growing. Oh
we're out now.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
Of the premier pay.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
It was.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
I hadn't hung up on anyone Emotions manager.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
She's out now.

Speaker 9 (28:23):
Yeah, I'm just I'm waiting for the email. I'm waiting
for the ex to fall on my head. I'm like,
that's my whole broadcasting career. It wasn't even great to
start with.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
I know you're great, but that's the scandal. That's the
scandal that could end your career.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
I think there was a it was a perfect break, Hailey.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
Other than right, I feel like Buddy did he's lawyer.
At the moment, we're sweeping away one scandal. Another one
is it's ugly.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
The hits that John and Ben podcastial season upon us
right now. A lot of functions happening around the country,
work functions, things to do with school friends, all that
sort of stuff.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
That's a reallyless schedule, isn't it leading into the twenty
first of December? Just every weekend jam packed with stuff?
Why why don't we make this period, Why do we
make this halfway through November to the twentieth of December
so stressful for us?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah? We put it on ourselves.

Speaker 3 (29:16):
We could turn this into a completely time and then
we just put on the New zealand puts on its
out of office for the entire month of December.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
Jen, don't we this is this business? Is the price
we pay for that office?

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Yeah, maybe the world will get back to your early fib.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
I know it's like January is all right off anyway,
the rest of we'll still move into a one hundred America.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
A couple of days off. They love Chris Christmas hard.
They have a couple of days off there right back
to it. Guys, We're like, no, you want to worry
for let's you gotta wait till February. You know what,
My wheels have full of god buck card. Don't care
mat cat fib Maybe each we'll just see on the
sunlight sun last. But I was at a function a
couple of nights ago and I witnessed someone and they

(29:59):
had a pack of car cards and they I came
in late and I was like, Oh, what's going on
over there? But there was a guy standing there and
people crowding around, and he was doing a magic trick
with a pack of cards, and it was a great trick.
I came into that. I missed the start of it,
came into the end, but everyone was hooping and hollering
and they were like, there's a great and I was like, oh,
he was the life of the party, won the room

(30:21):
oment this end and I was like I in that moment,
I was like, I don't have a Everyone talks about
a party trick. I don't have a party trick. I
don't have anything. If someone went to me, what's your
party trick, I don't have one.

Speaker 5 (30:33):
What do you do you I like to bring out.
It's not it's not a pack of cards or anything,
but like when we are out we get cocktails or whatever,
you do, you get the cherry stalk.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
That's right.

Speaker 5 (30:43):
Yeah, I like to do that at the table. I'm like, hey,
gazz and I can tie the cherry store with my tongue.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
There isn't a phenomenon.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
It's actually really good. You put the whole cherry in, obviously,
with the stalk tied up into a little knot.

Speaker 7 (30:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Every morning we walk in and Megan my shoelaces again,
he's down there tying up my shoelaces. It's an amazing track.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
It's actually quite a good track, but I could only
work in some seasons. I mean, cheeries are hard to get.

Speaker 4 (31:09):
We're coming into cheery scene.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
Yeah, you could do that track.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
So maybe you got actually a whole of January and
Febry as you can put that trick on display for
the whole in New Zealand.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
We're not doing anything else. But yeah, there was people.
You know, there's always someone that can do something like
an impression or a voice or or like some sort
of party trick and a party scene. You're like back
people that could do backflips.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
That's that's risky though, like as soon as his bv's involved, like,
don't do one, now.

Speaker 7 (31:33):
Can you do anything?

Speaker 3 (31:34):
No? No, I had a friend who used to put
fireworks in between his butt cheeks and he produced really
produced a dead Oh no, I didn't go to school
with producer Ali's dead.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
Fireworks. That reminded me of come on here, as.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
He put a sky rocket in there once and ended
up burns. Not recommend. He came back the following year
just put a sparkler in the which is a little
bit it's still not recommended.

Speaker 12 (32:04):
Now that your dad, what's his name, His name is
Grant Old Granty. I grew up witnessing this as a
young child, so I might explain why I'm the way.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
It doesn't actually explain a lot. Never happened in my household,
that's for sure.

Speaker 12 (32:18):
No, Yeah, he'd definitely get down on the Florida party
line of fart up, grab his lighter that was close by,
and yeah, just blowers.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
Far up, blows pants down.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah, it's fling class.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
His pants on.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Fine, No, that's the again. If you're listening to this kids,
none of us is recommended. We want a party trek.

Speaker 4 (32:42):
That's safe, that you know, don't follow grunts.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It's not going to be a news article. It's not
going to burn the place down. Ben podcast, what's your
party treck because none of us, Well, Megan's got one
that's good for some seasons of the year, but not
all seasons of making a cherry star walk into a knot.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
In my mouth.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Honestly, it's very impressively once those cheeries start heading back
and save we'll definitely get you to do it for
social media, but yeah, we'll see you do it before.
I don't know how do you do it. You're obviously
maneuvering your tongue.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
So when you first put it in.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
You've got to like loosen it up so it becomes
like melleable, Like I just like massage the stalk and
then I don't know, you just kind of like you
know how to tie it, Kno, so you just do.

Speaker 3 (33:23):
It with you your turn.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Yeah, it's very impressive.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
Push one side of the stalk through a loop.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
How did you know? How did you end up there?

Speaker 5 (33:30):
I think I saw it on a movie. I often
see things and I'm like, I'm gonna learn how to
do that. That's important.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
I tried to learn how to do a Rubic's cube,
and I did eventually learn how to do it, and
I would vary for between like it to surprise you.
Sometimes I would do it like in a minute and
a half, which is okay, it's not like what the
best in the world would do it pretty good. And
other times it would take me like ten minutes. It's
all algorithms and now I've forgotten that.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
But it's just yeah, see that sounds hard.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
It's yeah, you just got to remember. It's like all
about mean repetition, same things over and over again. But
that's a cool part and maybe I could get back.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Yeah, but I mean, you know, spinning twelve minutes at
a party.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Watch do you try to remember you doing ten sick?
As of one hand. That's a great party trick. We're like, hey, guys,
give me twelve minutes.

Speaker 5 (34:09):
And it's cooler when you discover a pack of cards
at the party rather than you bring you guys want to.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
See really cube done really slowly and then sometimes going
oh no, hang on the conversation with the sort of
veer off, and then you'll be like I'm done later.
That's right, So maybe that's not the one I need
to bring around parties.

Speaker 8 (34:32):
Morning, Good morning everybody.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
We're doing well. Loving to have you on your party trick.
What do you got?

Speaker 8 (34:39):
So I'm an early childhood teacher, so naturally everything I
do is very animated. I do animal impersonations.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Oh okay, what do we got? It's a buffet of
your urriper twist like the lion king.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
What what's your best one?

Speaker 8 (34:54):
So we've got to forgive me the horrific chicken.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
It's good.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
I like that.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
I knew that was the chicken. You the booster, Okay,
you do the you do the noise first, and they
were try and guess what it is?

Speaker 7 (35:20):
How about.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
That's good. The monkeys. Yeah, that is great, Yana, We're
going to take the other jaw for a wicked We
appreciate they got some flying monkeys in the movie as
well too.

Speaker 3 (35:34):
So Dan, just like that hit us with your party trick.

Speaker 11 (35:37):
Dan, O, Hey, how's going guys? So I'm quite good
at getting rid of liquid. So one of my one
of my party tricks was do a handstand while drinking
a beer.

Speaker 2 (35:49):
That's a handstand beer.

Speaker 11 (35:52):
Yes, obviously sometimes I had to do it with one
hand on one handed handstand the liquid.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
While on a handstand. So it's going putting a glass
or no drink.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
I always appreciate you know when you and you see
those people chugging stuff through different entry points of their body.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Like, how did you end up there? This is not
the first time you've done this.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
Look look at old someone called Grubby pouring something through
his eye socket.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
He was like, you got to watch this.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
I'm like, I don't, ye, because you do as a
favor and film yourself doing that and send it in.

Speaker 9 (36:30):
Ye.

Speaker 11 (36:30):
Sounds sounds good. Undouble, you don't.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Have to all leave that one with you, but put
the hats that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
We're talking about party tracks, heading into a whole lot
of social engagements over the next coming weeks, heading into Christmas,
and we actually thought, well, why don't we actually learn
the party trick.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
That'd be you should text us full form and you've
got something you can teach us, something that we can
do and at a party as a trend needs to
be a three person act.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Okay, yeah, or something that we can doubt we could
all do it.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
Yeah yeah, put her own fleaar on it. To our jewels,
we're just playing you. Five minutes ago, the Amegan Jewels
phoned up once unrelated topic, but she just said, I
can make a car alarm with her mouth.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
This is her actual mouth making this noise.

Speaker 4 (37:18):
How was she doing that?

Speaker 2 (37:19):
It's awesome. She explained it to us afterwards. She sort
of makes the noise and then she sort of chops
her like her throat apple type situation.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Where we were on I can't do it, but so
she's like hacking his throat.

Speaker 2 (37:33):

You're and the Olds Dance come up.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
There's the Senior's category. H And I'm at the airport
because I a little bit delayed. So as we'll just
go and wait in the arrivals area.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
You know, you can't wait in the car park outside,
can you. They move you on quickly, they do, you can't.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
And then you just try and keep looping around. And
I know what you do, and you just try and
push it as long as you can. So you ended
up just sitting around and so just an annoying pest
lingering around the airport. Went into three wise men you know,
you have a look at that, and they're like, you're
not wise enough to be in here, and then went
into the sunglass huts. And then so I justind found
myself just sort of sitting down. And I'm one of
these people that if there's someone with a screen around me,

(40:03):
I can't help, but look at it can't help. But
like you know, when you're behind someone on their phone
and you're like, what are they doing? You know, looking
for time off work? Okay, I wonder if they'll be grunted. Yeah,
no is it completely Yeah, terrible. Anyway, I was sitting
next to someone and they're in the seat in front,
and they had their epad and they were playing the show,
and I think, is the one you've been talking to

(40:24):
me about?

Speaker 2 (40:24):
The Alien show on Netflix?

Speaker 4 (40:26):
Oh yeah, that's in the top ten. Actually, it's crazy.

Speaker 3 (40:29):
I assumed it was the same show. So I'm like,
I'm picking up the showers. Oh, this is the show
Median has been talking about, and I'm getting lost in
the show over their shoulder. The problem being though, is
you know when someone's peering over the feeling right, Yeah,
and I got They tuned around and eyeballed me as
I'm staring their iPad.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
I've got nothing. You're completely disarmed.

right now.
