Speaker 1 (00:00):
This Jon would being podcast. Hey, that's us broad to
you by HelloFresh the Experts and Tastes that kiwis love.
Welcome to the podcast on your Thursday. That's a big
one today. We obviously got America a couple of times,
so with our New York correspondents Nicole, we talked to
her and Jack Tame in America's well, he's says, he's
at the loser party.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
The good thing about Jack is he's like, yeah, yeah,
because he's coming home.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
But Nicole lives there.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
She's dealing with it, Yeah, deal with the fallout. Yeah.
So I was going to say, your mum, I just so,
I didn't know how it could change from that topic.
Just again, change your mum, Megan, great great theory in
regards to digesting CAFC.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Is that a great theory?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
She used to think we'd only have it every now
and then, and she used to think that if she
put it in the oven for like fifteen minutes after
we'd bought her.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
It would like seep all the fat out.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Of it just a little way.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
But it just ended up going rock hard. That coating
doesn't do well in the oven for fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
The first one on you because first one we had
in Marston fast Food was KFC.
Speaker 5 (01:04):
That's what we had.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That was a big I think it was the Yeah,
I remember as a kid it was there, and then
later in the McDonald's. McDonalds. It used to take a
hand to go to like Partisan North or the big
smoke you know, you know Wellington or the Heart to
go get okay sorry McDonalds or anything like when you.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Grab a masters them in terms of smoke, what was
what was big when you went to Parts North?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm passionate, passionate about PARMI because
people was like, oh party this and I'm like we
we could only have dreamed of being in part Masterden.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I remember like people from.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
All all sorts of traffic lights.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, people from Blenham used to come for like traffic lights,
Glassons and McDonald's I think.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Set of traffic lights when I was and then they
got rid of it so they had no lights. Yeah, yeah,
put it around about it. It was enough traffic to
really like around about waiting waiting for so I think, yeah,
I like, get rid of this. So I don't think
they have now and this it's changed. I've been back
there for a while. They haven't been.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
They wanted to see more populated than They're.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Like, this is suppose technician has to come and work
on it every Why am I doing this again?
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Enjoy the podcast today and we'll catch you back tomorrow.
Exciting day for you today, Megan. Not many people would
be excited about this.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I think you'd be surprised.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I think a lot of a lot of parents would
be stoked about this. I'm getting just a little minor
surgery on my hand. I've got carpal tunnel, if you
know what that is. Just all the nerves and stuff
get like clinched, get squashed, so they just open it
up so they can breathe again.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
You've hit this operation on the other hand, right.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, It's just like a quick one and just have
a sore hand afterwards. But they wrung me up and
they were like, do you want like an arm block
so just like a local or do you want a
general anesthetic?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
And I was like, girl, have me with the general option.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Thank you said that to not weird.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I said to her, I was like, that sounds like
a bloody good sleep. Hit me with it, and she
was like, yeah, no problem. So today I'm going to
have a general the suic and a lie down in
the middle of the day with no one touching me
and yelling at me, and I've cleared my calendar.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Do you feel better or do you feel woozy waking
up from that?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
No?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I feel quite woozy.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Yeah I do. But you're just out. You're you're out
for I want to reckon. There's a market for it.
Overtired adults, you're like, Okay, how long do you want
to be asleep for?
Speaker 6 (03:33):
Man?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Can you do me your fourteen nails? You call it
like the coma cabana. Yeah, they just yet it and
you're out. You're knocked out and wake up feeling like
a million dollars pat on the barm out.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
You get just like this, it's actually the dream, like
a little minor surgery, not life threatening, and you get
to have the day.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
To yourself feeling woozy.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
And even if I feel good, I'm going to go
home and be like, oh my god, I feel I
can't do anything I might have to have if you
go back to sleep.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Yeah, yeah, okay, it's just I'm going to check out
a hypothetical here. Okay, what would you be willing to
do to yourself to get in this situation. So you've
got to you got to break something or I would.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I'd break a bone, you break a bonemly just going
to put you. They're not going to put you to sleep,
are they general I'm.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Thinking I was. I'll say nothing that. I'm thinking it
was a to do list piling up, like I'll be
out for four hours. I'm like, Well'm going to make
that time up somewhere else. That's my prop was sleeping
during the day. I'm like, well great, but then I've
just got stuff I need to do like this, but
no one's going to do it for me.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Even in a comf to do my head.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Too sweet if.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
I didn't have to, rather not like a plastic surgery.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Would be a good dog and things, you know, like
hopping around the street with you.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I reckon the family.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
I don't know your family doing es, but I reckon
that will the dog for you.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
That's the thing. If you're in hospital, they have to
pop on the hospital.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
You have to pack up your job.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Probably bring the dog in for me to walk. You
can walk. It's an arboragey cool. We bought the dog
and he could walk around the blocks a.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Man who won't even relaxed in a coma. There we go.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It's my worst nightmare, stupping at the coma.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Imagine you wake up and to be like, oh, it's
so good to see.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Did you get the dog?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Walking the dog?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
All the stuff to do? You'd leave your family with
a to do list to do, and then when you
woke up, none of it would be done.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
The heads that John wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Well, Donald Trump is not only the forty fifth president
of the United States, looks like he's the forty seventh
as well.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Has it ever happened where once once before? It has?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Eighteen ninety three, Grover Cleveland was the last president to
have four years gap in between.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
A president called Grover, Yeah you went.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It's actually got copied in paste the first through a
couple of lines of the article on Donald Trump. That's
in the first three lines saying it becomes just a
sickond American to win an other term after a gap.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Of four years. We're just saying before the show, you're
watching us, and there was that realization of we don't
live there, do you? We don't live there. You're not
doing the daily grind and I guess, well, the vote
said what really affects or people's lives, And for whatever reason,
they thought they had more money under Trump and there
were no wars under Trump.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
And I think, yeah, you're right. And I kept banging
on about Bob, the taxi driver that I met in America,
and as I was, he's driving me to the airport
a couple months ago, and he's like exactly saying those things,
they had more money under Trump. I wasn't a Trump supporter,
but all that and you're not. We're not living there.
And and maybe there is a thing because Kamala and
Joe Biden and of the current people in charge, and
(06:42):
sometimes people were just ready for a change.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
And we handed a bit of a poison chealice in
terms of cost of living, global financial crisis.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Coming off the back of COVID, so we.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Thought maybe results wouldn't be happening for a few few days.
But it looks like Trump. It looks like well last
night on Time got on stage and he pretty much
accepted that he is going to be the next president.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
And he tried to drink this lady called Susie up.
Susie was obviously a background person in the team. Susie
does not want to speak. You don't know, no, no,
please don't.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
Appreciation for Susie and the job you did, Susan.
Speaker 9 (07:19):
Come, Susie, Come here, Come here, Susan.
Speaker 10 (07:22):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the bags.
Speaker 11 (07:24):
Let me tell you, Susie likes to stay in the background.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
She's not in the background, thank you, Susan.
Speaker 11 (07:30):
Look its shad never seem to be shabby before.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah, got up, do something.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Please stop talking to me, high buffalo, Susie.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But what when you think about the last few months
and I know from an assassination attempt. You know, Joe
Biden standing down as well, he's a convicted felon. Yeah,
all these things. It's just it's just wild to think about.
And who could have picked it? Well? Moved in now, guys.
Producer Grace has been telling us to talk about mooding
for ages a pegmy hippopotamus.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
That's a low little hippo, very cute.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Gone viral. She's like, you need to keep talking about.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Mood She really wants us to be quite heavy on
the mooding.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
We had it, we had it, but until now, because
mooding was was chosen to predict who would win the
election by two watermelon to eight and Mooding will have
a listen.
Speaker 12 (08:23):
Thailand's baby hippo Moodang put in her prediction for the
next American president.
Speaker 13 (08:29):
Zookeepers presented her.
Speaker 12 (08:30):
With two fruit baskets, each with the names of the
presidential candidates, and Moodang had did choose the basket with
dromp on it. They were filled with dragon fruit and.
Speaker 13 (08:39):
Watermelon for her.
Speaker 12 (08:40):
So this of course was like before guys, the election
actually happened.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
So Mooding, Hey, we should have been talking about Mooding
more because won we.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Shoul supposed to put mooding on our social pages?
Speaker 14 (08:53):
Is Baron Trump six foot nine, six foot nine, but
we did the eighteen years old? Now I guess he's
just shot up since the last time would have been
eight years ago. That maybe you saw him on stage three.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Last one six foot apparently, but you can't tell on TV.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Very six foot nice, unbelieble.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Yeah, they walked up and they were like, there's Baron Trump.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We don't see him off and I'm like, whoa, Yeah,
it's impressive.
Speaker 7 (09:25):
The hits that johnaan Ben podcast How to Avoid It.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Today, Trump longs to secure that the presidency for the
second time. He is the forty fifth and forty seventh
president of America, and it seems like he won and
a bit more of a landslide than we all thought.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
No one's been working harder than Jack Tame.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
He's won our popular vote. He's been on every radio
station around and we're thankful he's come back with us again.
How's it going, Jack doing.
Speaker 15 (09:52):
Every radio station? Guys? So I can tell you what
my favorite is. It's the hands down, come on too easy?
You Si, who do you think pays the bill?
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's what.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Jack?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
What a wow?
Speaker 15 (10:05):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
What a date? Well, it was captivating viewing.
Speaker 15 (10:07):
Yeah, amazing a. I think we can say rip political
polling because you know, this time yesterday we were saying, oh,
it's going to be so tired, Oh my gosh, we
could be waiting days until we get the results. Wrong.
Turns out, of course, Donald Trump once again has defied
conventional political wisdom and a pretty remarkable result.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Well, yeah, we've been saying all morning, like, we obviously
get little pockets of information because generally, for the most part,
it doesn't affect the day to day life of New Zealanders.
But we don't live in America. Obviously the he was
touching on matters that mattered to the people.
Speaker 15 (10:38):
Yeah, I think, you know, there are a couple of
things I reckon we haven't appreciated well enough with Donald Trump.
First of all, is that you've got like tens of
millions of people who are in communities and states where
they traditionally relied on industry, so you know, building stuff,
cars the top of the list. And those are people
who grew up with good middle class income. They looked
(10:59):
at their parents, their parents maybe just had a high
school education that they could afford a pretty good life.
And those people today don't have anything like the standard
of living that their parents' generation enjoyed. They feel like
they've been ripped off. And you know, they've got people
on the coasts of America saying, oh, look, we're richer
than ever, life is better than ever, and they're like, nah, actually,
i'm working at seven to eleven. I've got all sorts
(11:21):
of health care problems. I can't afford a very good
standard of living, and I'm really pissed off about it.
And I reckon, Donald Trump has tapped into that in
a massive way.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
So what was it like being over there last night
because obviously see the footage shoft Donald Trump's you know,
blooger rallies, lots of celebrations. It seems on the other
side everyone kind of that the lights got turned on,
everyone got sent home.
Speaker 15 (11:42):
Oh so, I've just got this long history of being
at loser parties, which is just where they shouldn't even
call them parties because it's so grim. And I tell
you what, there is nothing worse than being the guy
who could go up to people and being like, how
does it feel to lose? Tell me about on television.
It's just like, oh man, you should have waiting for
(12:03):
someone to punch you in the throat, you know now.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Also when you get back to I'll invite you to
a loser party. It's just me.
Speaker 15 (12:11):
I'm really stelling to wonder if I'm the disciminy.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
I want to say that, but I don't want.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
To be mean.
Speaker 15 (12:17):
Like clever economists or pulsters or anything like that. Should
just say weird as TVs In's sending Jack.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Have you ever got close to Donald Trump, like over
your years of political reporting?
Speaker 15 (12:31):
I mean not probably not more than like ten meters
five or ten meters. I haven't like touched Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
But they were great meters. They were the greatest meters.
Speaker 15 (12:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Last night during his speech, something we found quite amusing
is listen, I don't know who Susie is, but obviously
she was a pivotal to his campaign. And he keeps
trying to pull drag Susie up to the microphone to
say something, and Susie was like please, no, no, no.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
No, appreciation for Susie and the job you did, Susane.
Speaker 9 (13:03):
Come, Susie, come here, come here to Susan.
Speaker 10 (13:07):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the back.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Let me tell you, Susie likes.
Speaker 10 (13:11):
To stay in the background.
Speaker 11 (13:12):
She's not in the background, Thank you, Susan. Sat never
seem to be shat before Susie.
Speaker 15 (13:21):
Susie you know, campaign direct, Yeah, yeah, make but I
mean this is this is one of the things that
I mean, people obviously, like you know, find refreshing about
Donald Trump. Like most people, if they are running for president,
would have someone write two speeches that have a speech
for winning and a speech for losing in their pocket,
and they would choose the right one on the night,
(13:41):
like nah, there's gonna be a billion people watching me worldwide.
Why would I bother writing any words down. I'm going
to stand out there. I'm just gonna free wheel. I'm
just gonna see where it goes.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'm just gonna drag other people.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
You say some words, you say some wood very funny,
very funny. I Well, there we go. Life goes on
and no matter what you said on it, the sun
will come up tomorrow.
Speaker 15 (14:05):
Yeah, yeah too, right, Hey, Kamala Harris is going to
concede it about midday. We we could use it on
time as well. So if you want to watch a
loser speech in part two of The Lost.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, you'll be No. We appreciate your time over there,
and thanks so much for doing it a couple of
times for us.
Speaker 15 (14:20):
Oh good guys. Thank you.
Speaker 16 (14:22):
The Hits, the Johona wan Ben Podcast, The Funny Theories
that your mum's here because Rayway are your mum?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, she used to have one.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
So we used to every now and then as a
special treat on a Friday, we would get KFC and
so my parents would drive to get it. We'd get
like a bunch of chicken, but she'd come home and
we weren't allowed to eat it then because she had
a theory that if she cooked it again in the oven,
she would get rid of some of the fat.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Right, cinerate off the grease and guilt.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
And then once it came out of the oven, it
had to sit on paper towels and the damn it down.
I was like, it's at this point, like, ly's just
commit to it.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
It's a treat and just just eat it.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Literally went from KFC to RAFC half an hour blitz
in the oven.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But I tell you, like, all it did was make
the crumb like rock hard.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
It was like, so what about like the chips or
anything like that.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
The chips would go on the oven toe the whole
she doing all of the kernel's good work.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Any juiciness from that chicken had gone. It was dried
through and through.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Taking out the corn from the little yellow bag that
used to come and as well, I used to love
the corn. I was a fan of the corn. But yeah,
remember they used to give you a little tale li
its moist talents mop everything off, and I was a
moist tail its.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Yeah. So that that was Ray Ray's theory that if
you checked the KFC in the oven, it would make
it healthier.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Moms do have interesting theories my mum, or anything with
preservatives in it. She's like, ignore the expiry date. She's like,
I was like, oh, this is way expired. So I's
got preservatives in it, it'll be fine. And so she'll
just push stuff years over the.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Does she ever got food poisonings my step.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yet all the time?
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Really?
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Oh, he's got up to hit the stomach today, I'm like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Because he's eating chicken twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
The mayo has been off for four years. But anyway,
it's such appearance. Thing that doesn't affect.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
Her is like.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Taking some resk. But anything with her theory preservatives, which
I don't think is it's the right there. I mean, yes,
it does keep things longer, but not as long as
you'll push it out.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Oh that is very funny. Well, and there's also the
popular one too, and he was a fan of this,
and I'm sure your appearance are as well. The half
an hour time required between digesting food and going swimming,
Oh yes, has any a thing? Has anyone ever gone
under that thirty minutes? Doesn'tyone know what happens?
Speaker 1 (16:49):
I think you don't straight away?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Isn't that the theory that you like sink.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
Sink to the bottom. So I've got I've taken into
my parents teaching is a don't you get on there
for thirty minutes.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Don't swallow chewing gum because it's gonna last seven years
in your stomach.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
I don't think that's factual.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 16 (17:07):
I don't thinks that Joan Ben podcast, Your mum Ray.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
She reckoned that if she put KFC chicken in the
oven for like an extra maybe it felt like half
an hour.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Maybe it was like fifteen minutes, it would make it healthier.
It like got all the.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Fat burnt off, the eleven secret herbs and spices.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Casually the next day after you put it in the fridge,
it's good. Oh yeah, cold Case, Yes, rolled that theory then, yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Case, you haven't had a long time miss KFC. Yes,
So mom theories, that's what we're talking about next year.
I just want to mention one my wonderful mother in law,

I don't know if it was like a way to
be like, okay, I'm coming clean.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Oh no, I didn't know. No, I've never known about that.
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
I didn't know hair cupping was associated with sift.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
You didn't get busted for something at their record the
morning one time, So no wonder there are als on
your case every time.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Hair cups they're guilt hair cups.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
And the cold My mum always says, don't get cold,
you'll lake get sick. You'll catch a cold if you
get cold, Like, no, I think that's bacteria.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I think it's like jers. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
One more great text too, before we go. I don't
know where we're going, but it says my Mom would
always say, I brought you into this world and I
can take you out of it. Casual death three yeah,
written in theory there, you'll probably also go to prison too.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
The Hats that johonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Looks like Donald Trump is going to be a president
all over again. The forty seven and the forty fifth
President of the United States. Kamala Harris says, not officially
said a conceited or anything like that, but it looks
like Donald Trump's got it.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
And we are heating to New York.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Our good friend Nicole Ryan hosts a breakfast show in
New York City. She joins us on the on the line, Now,
how are you, Nicole?
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I mean, are you guys worried about me?
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Concerned?
Speaker 1 (20:56):
You are? This morning?
Speaker 6 (20:58):
On or Shall, I said to ar producer Bent, I said,
I feel like my New Zealand friends are concerned. They're
genuinely worried about me. That was what I felt like
yesterday before everything was counted.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
All the belts recounted, well, we work and so yeah,
well you didn't know what was going to happen when
either way, and as you've woken this morning in the US,
what has been the reaction.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Listen, it's like life goes on right, Like it's like
it's you know, somebody when somebody loses, and that's and
that's just that way that it is.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
This is your president and just hold for the best.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I was watching CNN and there was this guy and
he was he was a Democrat supporter, and he was like,
I just want to say to everyone. He's like, I
don't think that the left should see this as a
vote against them or their beliefs. I think people, he
was saying, voted for Trump because they believe under him
they got more money, whether it's right or wrong, and
(21:51):
there were his wars in the world, and he said
that's what he believes was the reason.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
But like, isn't that the way that it goes right?
Like you care about like one or to of like
issues that are important to you and the rest of
you just accept. But some of the things that they're
that people voted for, and the things that they're just
accepting are the scary things that just accepted.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
You know, how much how much do you think and
this is just a big you know, like a question
that maybe you don't have the answer for, But how
much do you think it was because of you know,
Kamela being part of sort of Joe Biden's organization and
people wanting change that helped her, Like Ray.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
She kind of fell in Like it was like she
fell into the position. Nobody like elected her by default
she became. And I think a lot of people were
like bitter about that, at leastly the people that I
have talked to, like no one, no one said that
she should be, you know, the candidate, but like that's
just the way that the machine works. So yes, I
think that there's a good amount of people like that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I was trying to I'm like, okay, look at some
positives here. So I watched Trump's victory speech, and what
did you think about it? Because I thought like, maybe
a little bit more humble than usual, still rambling.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Yes, Ramby loves to move his accordion hands.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, no, I I did.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
I saw some of it, and I feel as though, yes,
I think that that was smart on his part, not
to be like screw them in all derogatory as he
wants to be sometimes. What he said, I was like, again,
hope for the best, I felt like, but no, I
felt like there was a little bit more of it
felt more genuine than the Trump we normally see.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
I loved it when I don't know who Susie was,
but he's let's let's get Susie. I appear to say
a few words.
Speaker 8 (23:27):
Susie and said, job you did, Susie. Come Susie, come here,
tell me Susane.
Speaker 10 (23:34):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the backs.
Speaker 11 (23:36):
Let me tell you, I've never seen her be shot before.
Speaker 9 (23:40):
Susie.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
I feel like.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
This whole thing, like leading up, I feel like he's
had some weird love moments like that, like he called
there was he was saying he was a huge fan
of somebody that was a man, and he was like,
she's hot, She's so hot, and then it was it
was a man like he he just remembered and there's a.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Little alon ramble. I was like the storship.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
Yeah, listen, I feel like it's hard for any political
candidate to like just speak all the time for that long.
And that's like what you walked into.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
But I don't know you have to. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I would be a bumbling idiot. But again that's true.
It's no real time to prepare anything, and just getting
up there said what happens now? What happens now in America?
When when does Joe Biden exit? And it looks like,
you know, barring, like.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
He's already exited, just in.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
A field, exited when he was president.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Also, guys, isn't it way more fun to talk about celebrities.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Let's get back to that.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Yeah, exactly what thinking over the air, and it was Yeah,
I was surprised, but not surprised with the results. Yes, yeah,
take care of yourself and we'll look forward to talking
to you next week.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
All right, have a good one, guys.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Now we are on a bit of a speakable things
jingly a little jingle balls are on their own little mission,
aren't they. Team We trying to avoid listening to Mariah
Carey's all I Want for Christmas the official anthem of Christmas,
and this is again not coming in from an anti
Christmas hate speech. Were all positive vibes on this show.
(25:13):
We love it, even me it was going to get
her house Christmas.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Up said doing that you play your alarm. That sounds
a lot like Mariah Carey. So but basically we're just
trying to avoid it for as long as possible, the
most iconic Christmas song yesterday. As soon as you hear it, sorry,
you're out of the game. And you just got to
tell us four eight seven the other game yesterday afterwards
after work. Two high risk environments for me. Firstly, you
had to go into the mall pick up some stuff.
(25:38):
I recorded a quick little bit just my nerves in
the mall. Okay, here at the more Christmas time, well
not quite Christmas time, so in November, a very high
risk environment. Got to get in get out before here
Mariah Carey wish me luck and yeah, didn't hear anything,
but I was the whole time you just conscious that
maybe over the loud speak every shop you go into
(26:00):
a lot of Christmas stuff everywhere. And then last night
saw your Yes, your husband Andrew was there as well.
A Christmas movie, it's the new movie Start of the Rock.
As soon as it started, I was excited about the Rock.
And soon as it started, I was like, they start
playing a Christmas song. I was like, oh, no, it's
gonna be. There's gonna be multiple Christmas and there were
throughout the movie, but thankfully not of that song.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
They didn't get the right.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
But I was just like.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Embracing yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, Christmas movies. The other one. I hadn't thought they
could trip you up that, you know, especially a new movie. Yeah,
this one the Rock Christmas and I was like, I
don't know what what songs are going to be coming up?
But thankfully for me, there was not Mariah Carey.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
So many texts to coming through on four four eight
seven people who work in retail high I woken retail
and I'm going to still haven't heard it yet, and
I'm going to be avoiding it. I wear headphones now
to the supermarket to avoid hearing it for this game.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
That's a good player. I don't want to hit heap
phones to them all.
Speaker 17 (26:57):
And the movie just listens now the text here, guys,
I'm out heard it and wire Worth Glenfield yesterday, So
it actually texts four four eighty seven have you been
mariahed already?
Speaker 4 (27:09):
Are you out of the game? Do you that song
she recorded in a.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Short amount of time, wasn't it? Oh?
Speaker 4 (27:15):
You roade it in fifteen minutes? But it was released
in nineteen ninety four and it didn't chart until twenty twelve.
What yeah, Because apparently there were rules around the charts
and Christmas songs. All right, So it didn't actually officially
chart until twenty twelve. It didn't even give them the
top one hundred.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
We were loving it before twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Right, hold, we will love it, so we still love it.
I try, I said, we're not trying to hate on
that song. It's like kit it. We just thought it'd
be fun to see how long we could avoid listening
to it. You can play along, like if you'd start
right now, it's fine. We make out the rules as
we go along for this game. So see how long
you can take to avoid Mariah Carey's all I want
for Christmas. But you need to let us know four
for eight seven when you do hear it, and you're
(27:57):
out of the game, because when we're all out, we'll
start playing the song.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
My wife has pulled me up on. I don't know
if you guys are the same, And I know where
it's Maybe it's come from doing this job where you're
having a conversation but you're listening to other other things
going on, seeing people even in TV, people are talking
in your ears. And she will often be talking to
me and then she'll go you're not listening, aren't you?
And to be feared, my mind might be with something
else or I might be like listening to something else
(28:23):
going on. But then I've got some time. I don't
have many things I can do well, but for some
reason I can go yeah, and I can my brain
relay what the competent together mines her up. She's like, yes,
that's exactly what I was saying. But you definitely were
you heard me, And it's like it takes a little
bit of the process. Was there And I'm like, yeah, well, no,
(28:44):
you were talking about that, And I'm like, I definitely
wasn't fully listening.
Speaker 4 (28:48):

Something about Megan, she's going to have to do something.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Yeah, well I missed that part. Yeah, good skill. But
as the school will still be no purposes other than

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Fifty days until Christmas? Right now? And you know you
got to the mall. I had to go to the
mall yesterday. It was, you know, because of this game,
a very risky environment to be in.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
We're trying to avoid listening to Maria Carri's All I
Want for Christmas. You're playing along as well. If you have,
if you just joined us the first time you're hearing
about it, you can start now. There's no hard and
fast rules to this. We're just we're just doing radio stuff, guys,
making stuff as we go along, making up stuff with this.
Is you entering the mall yesterday, Ben, which is a
death sentence?
Speaker 1 (38:32):
Yeah, isn't it okay? Here had the more Christmas time,
well not quite Christmas time, so in November, a very
high risk environment got to get in and get out
before here Marai Carey wish me luck, anything, nothing, nothing,
But I was so paranoid. That ended up because I
had to spend some time at the mall. I was
going to get the stuff I needed, but they also
(38:52):
wait for it to pick up my daughter from her
the dance class afterwards. Normally I'd probably find somewhere in
the mall to do some work. No, I was set
a car in the car park. I was like, I can't.
I can't be here any longer than I need to be.
Because Mariah Carey could play, I could be out of
the game.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
Although if someone ticks in this morning to say that
their tricker is going to the supermarket and the mall
with headphones on.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
That's pretty good. Great, watched Christmas movie last night. Ended
up going to that and that was that was resky too,
not knowing what could be around the corner.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
What was that movie?
Speaker 13 (39:20):

And Trump last night he was he just he kind
of haird libbed. The entire speech went on for about
sort of fell like forty minutes good aired libbing, non
stop haired lobbing for forty minutes.
Speaker 1 (43:25):
It seems like he just pretty much rolls every every
one of those without a speech. You know, he just
kind of goes from one thing to another, and you know,
see some stuff, probably yourself. So it's probably like our
radio show. You get off and you're like, what did

him out of the limelight, haven't they. And Susie, he
keeps Trump keeps trying to pull this lady named Susie
up on stage. She has since found out was basically
the director of his campaign, so probably played the role
of getting him there. But Susie, she was not having it.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
The second one
This Jon would being podcast. Hey, that's us broad to
you by HelloFresh the Experts and Tastes that kiwis love.
Welcome to the podcast on your Thursday. That's a big
one today. We obviously got America a couple of times,
so with our New York correspondents Nicole, we talked to
her and Jack Tame in America's well, he's says, he's
at the loser party.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
The good thing about Jack is he's like, yeah, yeah,
because he's coming home.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
But Nicole lives there.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
She's dealing with it, Yeah, deal with the fallout. Yeah.
So I was going to say, your mum, I just so,
I didn't know how it could change from that topic.
Just again, change your mum, Megan, great great theory in
regards to digesting CAFC.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Is that a great theory?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
She used to think we'd only have it every now
and then, and she used to think that if she
put it in the oven for like fifteen minutes after
we'd bought her.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
It would like seep all the fat out.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Of it just a little way.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
But it just ended up going rock hard. That coating
doesn't do well in the oven for fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
The first one on you because first one we had
in Marston fast Food was KFC.
Speaker 5 (01:04):
That's what we had.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That was a big I think it was the Yeah,
I remember as a kid it was there, and then
later in the McDonald's. McDonalds. It used to take a
hand to go to like Partisan North or the big
smoke you know, you know Wellington or the Heart to
go get okay sorry McDonalds or anything like when you.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Grab a masters them in terms of smoke, what was
what was big when you went to Parts North?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm passionate, passionate about PARMI because
people was like, oh party this and I'm like we
we could only have dreamed of being in part Masterden.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I remember like people from.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
All all sorts of traffic lights.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, people from Blenham used to come for like traffic lights,
Glassons and McDonald's I think.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Set of traffic lights when I was and then they
got rid of it so they had no lights. Yeah, yeah,
put it around about it. It was enough traffic to
really like around about waiting waiting for so I think, yeah,
I like, get rid of this. So I don't think
they have now and this it's changed. I've been back
there for a while. They haven't been.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
They wanted to see more populated than They're.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Like, this is suppose technician has to come and work
on it every Why am I doing this again?
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Enjoy the podcast today and we'll catch you back tomorrow.
Exciting day for you today, Megan. Not many people would
be excited about this.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I think you'd be surprised.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I think a lot of a lot of parents would
be stoked about this. I'm getting just a little minor
surgery on my hand. I've got carpal tunnel, if you
know what that is. Just all the nerves and stuff
get like clinched, get squashed, so they just open it
up so they can breathe again.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
You've hit this operation on the other hand, right.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, It's just like a quick one and just have
a sore hand afterwards. But they wrung me up and
they were like, do you want like an arm block
so just like a local or do you want a
general anesthetic?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
And I was like, girl, have me with the general option.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Thank you said that to not weird.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I said to her, I was like, that sounds like
a bloody good sleep. Hit me with it, and she
was like, yeah, no problem. So today I'm going to
have a general the suic and a lie down in
the middle of the day with no one touching me
and yelling at me, and I've cleared my calendar.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Do you feel better or do you feel woozy waking
up from that?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
No?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I feel quite woozy.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Yeah I do. But you're just out. You're you're out
for I want to reckon. There's a market for it.
Overtired adults, you're like, Okay, how long do you want
to be asleep for?
Speaker 6 (03:33):
Man?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Can you do me your fourteen nails? You call it
like the coma cabana. Yeah, they just yet it and
you're out. You're knocked out and wake up feeling like
a million dollars pat on the barm out.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
You get just like this, it's actually the dream, like
a little minor surgery, not life threatening, and you get
to have the day.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
To yourself feeling woozy.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
And even if I feel good, I'm going to go
home and be like, oh my god, I feel I
can't do anything I might have to have if you
go back to sleep.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Yeah, yeah, okay, it's just I'm going to check out
a hypothetical here. Okay, what would you be willing to
do to yourself to get in this situation. So you've
got to you got to break something or I would.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I'd break a bone, you break a bonemly just going
to put you. They're not going to put you to sleep,
are they general I'm.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Thinking I was. I'll say nothing that. I'm thinking it
was a to do list piling up, like I'll be
out for four hours. I'm like, Well'm going to make
that time up somewhere else. That's my prop was sleeping
during the day. I'm like, well great, but then I've
just got stuff I need to do like this, but
no one's going to do it for me.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Even in a comf to do my head.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Too sweet if.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
I didn't have to, rather not like a plastic surgery.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Would be a good dog and things, you know, like
hopping around the street with you.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I reckon the family.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
I don't know your family doing es, but I reckon
that will the dog for you.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
That's the thing. If you're in hospital, they have to
pop on the hospital.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
You have to pack up your job.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Probably bring the dog in for me to walk. You
can walk. It's an arboragey cool. We bought the dog
and he could walk around the blocks a.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Man who won't even relaxed in a coma. There we go.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It's my worst nightmare, stupping at the coma.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Imagine you wake up and to be like, oh, it's
so good to see.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Did you get the dog?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Walking the dog?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
All the stuff to do? You'd leave your family with
a to do list to do, and then when you
woke up, none of it would be done.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
The heads that John wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Well, Donald Trump is not only the forty fifth president
of the United States, looks like he's the forty seventh
as well.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Has it ever happened where once once before? It has?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Eighteen ninety three, Grover Cleveland was the last president to
have four years gap in between.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
A president called Grover, Yeah you went.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It's actually got copied in paste the first through a
couple of lines of the article on Donald Trump. That's
in the first three lines saying it becomes just a
sickond American to win an other term after a gap.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Of four years. We're just saying before the show, you're
watching us, and there was that realization of we don't
live there, do you? We don't live there. You're not
doing the daily grind and I guess, well, the vote
said what really affects or people's lives, And for whatever reason,
they thought they had more money under Trump and there
were no wars under Trump.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
And I think, yeah, you're right. And I kept banging
on about Bob, the taxi driver that I met in America,
and as I was, he's driving me to the airport
a couple months ago, and he's like exactly saying those things,
they had more money under Trump. I wasn't a Trump supporter,
but all that and you're not. We're not living there.
And and maybe there is a thing because Kamala and
Joe Biden and of the current people in charge, and
(06:42):
sometimes people were just ready for a change.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
And we handed a bit of a poison chealice in
terms of cost of living, global financial crisis.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Coming off the back of COVID, so we.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Thought maybe results wouldn't be happening for a few few days.
But it looks like Trump. It looks like well last
night on Time got on stage and he pretty much
accepted that he is going to be the next president.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
And he tried to drink this lady called Susie up.
Susie was obviously a background person in the team. Susie
does not want to speak. You don't know, no, no,
please don't.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
Appreciation for Susie and the job you did, Susan.
Speaker 9 (07:19):
Come, Susie, Come here, Come here, Susan.
Speaker 10 (07:22):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the bags.
Speaker 11 (07:24):
Let me tell you, Susie likes to stay in the background.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
She's not in the background, thank you, Susan.
Speaker 11 (07:30):
Look its shad never seem to be shabby before.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah, got up, do something.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Please stop talking to me, high buffalo, Susie.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But what when you think about the last few months
and I know from an assassination attempt. You know, Joe
Biden standing down as well, he's a convicted felon. Yeah,
all these things. It's just it's just wild to think about.
And who could have picked it? Well? Moved in now, guys.
Producer Grace has been telling us to talk about mooding
for ages a pegmy hippopotamus.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
That's a low little hippo, very cute.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Gone viral. She's like, you need to keep talking about.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Mood She really wants us to be quite heavy on
the mooding.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
We had it, we had it, but until now, because
mooding was was chosen to predict who would win the
election by two watermelon to eight and Mooding will have
a listen.
Speaker 12 (08:23):
Thailand's baby hippo Moodang put in her prediction for the
next American president.
Speaker 13 (08:29):
Zookeepers presented her.
Speaker 12 (08:30):
With two fruit baskets, each with the names of the
presidential candidates, and Moodang had did choose the basket with
dromp on it. They were filled with dragon fruit and.
Speaker 13 (08:39):
Watermelon for her.
Speaker 12 (08:40):
So this of course was like before guys, the election
actually happened.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
So Mooding, Hey, we should have been talking about Mooding
more because won we.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Shoul supposed to put mooding on our social pages?
Speaker 14 (08:53):
Is Baron Trump six foot nine, six foot nine, but
we did the eighteen years old? Now I guess he's
just shot up since the last time would have been
eight years ago. That maybe you saw him on stage three.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Last one six foot apparently, but you can't tell on TV.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Very six foot nice, unbelieble.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Yeah, they walked up and they were like, there's Baron Trump.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We don't see him off and I'm like, whoa, Yeah,
it's impressive.
Speaker 7 (09:25):
The hits that johnaan Ben podcast How to Avoid It.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Today, Trump longs to secure that the presidency for the
second time. He is the forty fifth and forty seventh
president of America, and it seems like he won and
a bit more of a landslide than we all thought.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
No one's been working harder than Jack Tame.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
He's won our popular vote. He's been on every radio
station around and we're thankful he's come back with us again.
How's it going, Jack doing.
Speaker 15 (09:52):
Every radio station? Guys? So I can tell you what
my favorite is. It's the hands down, come on too easy?
You Si, who do you think pays the bill?
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's what.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Jack?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
What a wow?
Speaker 15 (10:05):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
What a date? Well, it was captivating viewing.
Speaker 15 (10:07):
Yeah, amazing a. I think we can say rip political
polling because you know, this time yesterday we were saying, oh,
it's going to be so tired, Oh my gosh, we
could be waiting days until we get the results. Wrong.
Turns out, of course, Donald Trump once again has defied
conventional political wisdom and a pretty remarkable result.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Well, yeah, we've been saying all morning, like, we obviously
get little pockets of information because generally, for the most part,
it doesn't affect the day to day life of New Zealanders.
But we don't live in America. Obviously the he was
touching on matters that mattered to the people.
Speaker 15 (10:38):
Yeah, I think, you know, there are a couple of
things I reckon we haven't appreciated well enough with Donald Trump.
First of all, is that you've got like tens of
millions of people who are in communities and states where
they traditionally relied on industry, so you know, building stuff,
cars the top of the list. And those are people
who grew up with good middle class income. They looked
(10:59):
at their parents, their parents maybe just had a high
school education that they could afford a pretty good life.
And those people today don't have anything like the standard
of living that their parents' generation enjoyed. They feel like
they've been ripped off. And you know, they've got people
on the coasts of America saying, oh, look, we're richer
than ever, life is better than ever, and they're like, nah, actually,
i'm working at seven to eleven. I've got all sorts
(11:21):
of health care problems. I can't afford a very good
standard of living, and I'm really pissed off about it.
And I reckon, Donald Trump has tapped into that in
a massive way.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
So what was it like being over there last night
because obviously see the footage shoft Donald Trump's you know,
blooger rallies, lots of celebrations. It seems on the other
side everyone kind of that the lights got turned on,
everyone got sent home.
Speaker 15 (11:42):
Oh so, I've just got this long history of being
at loser parties, which is just where they shouldn't even
call them parties because it's so grim. And I tell
you what, there is nothing worse than being the guy
who could go up to people and being like, how
does it feel to lose? Tell me about on television.
It's just like, oh man, you should have waiting for
(12:03):
someone to punch you in the throat, you know now.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Also when you get back to I'll invite you to
a loser party. It's just me.
Speaker 15 (12:11):
I'm really stelling to wonder if I'm the disciminy.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
I want to say that, but I don't want.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
To be mean.
Speaker 15 (12:17):
Like clever economists or pulsters or anything like that. Should
just say weird as TVs In's sending Jack.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Have you ever got close to Donald Trump, like over
your years of political reporting?
Speaker 15 (12:31):
I mean not probably not more than like ten meters
five or ten meters. I haven't like touched Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
But they were great meters. They were the greatest meters.
Speaker 15 (12:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Last night during his speech, something we found quite amusing
is listen, I don't know who Susie is, but obviously
she was a pivotal to his campaign. And he keeps
trying to pull drag Susie up to the microphone to
say something, and Susie was like please, no, no, no.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
No, appreciation for Susie and the job you did, Susane.
Speaker 9 (13:03):
Come, Susie, come here, come here to Susan.
Speaker 10 (13:07):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the back.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Let me tell you, Susie likes.
Speaker 10 (13:11):
To stay in the background.
Speaker 11 (13:12):
She's not in the background, Thank you, Susan. Sat never
seem to be shat before Susie.
Speaker 15 (13:21):
Susie you know, campaign direct, Yeah, yeah, make but I
mean this is this is one of the things that
I mean, people obviously, like you know, find refreshing about
Donald Trump. Like most people, if they are running for president,
would have someone write two speeches that have a speech
for winning and a speech for losing in their pocket,
and they would choose the right one on the night,
(13:41):
like nah, there's gonna be a billion people watching me worldwide.
Why would I bother writing any words down. I'm going
to stand out there. I'm just gonna free wheel. I'm
just gonna see where it goes.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'm just gonna drag other people.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
You say some words, you say some wood very funny,
very funny. I Well, there we go. Life goes on
and no matter what you said on it, the sun
will come up tomorrow.
Speaker 15 (14:05):
Yeah, yeah too, right, Hey, Kamala Harris is going to
concede it about midday. We we could use it on
time as well. So if you want to watch a
loser speech in part two of The Lost.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, you'll be No. We appreciate your time over there,
and thanks so much for doing it a couple of
times for us.
Speaker 15 (14:20):
Oh good guys. Thank you.
Speaker 16 (14:22):
The Hits, the Johona wan Ben Podcast, The Funny Theories
that your mum's here because Rayway are your mum?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, she used to have one.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
So we used to every now and then as a
special treat on a Friday, we would get KFC and
so my parents would drive to get it. We'd get
like a bunch of chicken, but she'd come home and
we weren't allowed to eat it then because she had
a theory that if she cooked it again in the oven,
she would get rid of some of the fat.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Right, cinerate off the grease and guilt.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
And then once it came out of the oven, it
had to sit on paper towels and the damn it down.
I was like, it's at this point, like, ly's just
commit to it.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
It's a treat and just just eat it.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Literally went from KFC to RAFC half an hour blitz
in the oven.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But I tell you, like, all it did was make
the crumb like rock hard.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
It was like, so what about like the chips or
anything like that.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
The chips would go on the oven toe the whole
she doing all of the kernel's good work.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Any juiciness from that chicken had gone. It was dried
through and through.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Taking out the corn from the little yellow bag that
used to come and as well, I used to love
the corn. I was a fan of the corn. But yeah,
remember they used to give you a little tale li
its moist talents mop everything off, and I was a
moist tail its.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Yeah. So that that was Ray Ray's theory that if
you checked the KFC in the oven, it would make
it healthier.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Moms do have interesting theories my mum, or anything with
preservatives in it. She's like, ignore the expiry date. She's like,
I was like, oh, this is way expired. So I's
got preservatives in it, it'll be fine. And so she'll
just push stuff years over the.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Does she ever got food poisonings my step.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yet all the time?
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Really?
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Oh, he's got up to hit the stomach today, I'm like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Because he's eating chicken twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
The mayo has been off for four years. But anyway,
it's such appearance. Thing that doesn't affect.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
Her is like.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Taking some resk. But anything with her theory preservatives, which
I don't think is it's the right there. I mean, yes,
it does keep things longer, but not as long as
you'll push it out.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Oh that is very funny. Well, and there's also the
popular one too, and he was a fan of this,
and I'm sure your appearance are as well. The half
an hour time required between digesting food and going swimming,
Oh yes, has any a thing? Has anyone ever gone
under that thirty minutes? Doesn'tyone know what happens?
Speaker 1 (16:49):
I think you don't straight away?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Isn't that the theory that you like sink.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
Sink to the bottom. So I've got I've taken into
my parents teaching is a don't you get on there
for thirty minutes.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Don't swallow chewing gum because it's gonna last seven years
in your stomach.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
I don't think that's factual.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 16 (17:07):
I don't thinks that Joan Ben podcast, Your mum Ray.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
She reckoned that if she put KFC chicken in the
oven for like an extra maybe it felt like half
an hour.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Maybe it was like fifteen minutes, it would make it healthier.
It like got all the.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Fat burnt off, the eleven secret herbs and spices.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Casually the next day after you put it in the fridge,
it's good. Oh yeah, cold Case, Yes, rolled that theory then, yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Case, you haven't had a long time miss KFC. Yes,
So mom theories, that's what we're talking about next year.
I just want to mention one my wonderful mother in law,
Kathy's lovely lady, very lovely and she sounds like Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Lovely lady, greatest mother in laws of all time.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Lovely lady part of the story to get some brownie
points and love lady.
Speaker 4 (17:53):

any bad news. She'll be like drugs or gangs. Times,
drugs or gigs and to be feel as generally are
the drugs or gigs? So much so she says all
the time, we're going to get it on T shirt

Speaker 15 (18:43):
So you know that's well, how do you get us advice?

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Oh no, I didn't know. No, I've never known about that.
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
I didn't know hair cupping was associated with sift.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
You didn't get busted for something at their record the
morning one time, So no wonder there are als on
your case every time.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Hair cups they're guilt hair cups.
Speaker 2 (20:00):

get cold, Like, no, I think that's bacteria.
Speaker 1 (20:07):

Speaker 4 (20:09):
One more great text too, before we go. I don't
know where we're going, but it says my Mom would
always say, I brought you into this world and I
can take you out of it. Casual death three yeah,
written in theory there, you'll probably also go to prison too.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
The Hats that johonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Looks like Donald Trump is going to be a president
all over again. The forty seven and the forty fifth
President of the United States. Kamala Harris says, not officially
said a conceited or anything like that, but it looks
like Donald Trump's got it.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
And we are heating to New York.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Our good friend Nicole Ryan hosts a breakfast show in
New York City. She joins us on the on the line, Now,
how are you, Nicole?
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I mean, are you guys worried about me?
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Concerned?
Speaker 1 (20:56):
You are? This morning?
Speaker 6 (20:58):
On or Shall, I said to ar producer Bent, I said,
I feel like my New Zealand friends are concerned. They're
genuinely worried about me. That was what I felt like
yesterday before everything was counted.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
All the belts recounted, well, we work and so yeah,
well you didn't know what was going to happen when
either way, and as you've woken this morning in the US,
what has been the reaction.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Listen, it's like life goes on right, Like it's like
it's you know, somebody when somebody loses, and that's and
that's just that way that it is.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
This is your president and just hold for the best.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I was watching CNN and there was this guy and
he was he was a Democrat supporter, and he was like,
I just want to say to everyone. He's like, I
don't think that the left should see this as a
vote against them or their beliefs. I think people, he
was saying, voted for Trump because they believe under him
they got more money, whether it's right or wrong, and
(21:51):
there were his wars in the world, and he said
that's what he believes was the reason.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
But like, isn't that the way that it goes right?
Like you care about like one or to of like
issues that are important to you and the rest of
you just accept. But some of the things that they're
that people voted for, and the things that they're just
accepting are the scary things that just accepted.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
You know, how much how much do you think and
this is just a big you know, like a question
that maybe you don't have the answer for, But how
much do you think it was because of you know,
Kamela being part of sort of Joe Biden's organization and
people wanting change that helped her, Like Ray.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
She kind of fell in Like it was like she
fell into the position. Nobody like elected her by default
she became. And I think a lot of people were
like bitter about that, at leastly the people that I
have talked to, like no one, no one said that
she should be, you know, the candidate, but like that's
just the way that the machine works. So yes, I
think that there's a good amount of people like that.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I was trying to I'm like, okay, look at some
positives here. So I watched Trump's victory speech, and what
did you think about it? Because I thought like, maybe
a little bit more humble than usual, still rambling.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Yes, Ramby loves to move his accordion hands.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, no, I I did.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
I saw some of it, and I feel as though, yes,
I think that that was smart on his part, not
to be like screw them in all derogatory as he
wants to be sometimes. What he said, I was like, again,
hope for the best, I felt like, but no, I
felt like there was a little bit more of it
felt more genuine than the Trump we normally see.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
I loved it when I don't know who Susie was,
but he's let's let's get Susie. I appear to say
a few words.
Speaker 8 (23:27):
Susie and said, job you did, Susie. Come Susie, come here,
tell me Susane.
Speaker 10 (23:34):
Susie likes to stay sort of in the backs.
Speaker 11 (23:36):
Let me tell you, I've never seen her be shot before.
Speaker 9 (23:40):
Susie.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
I feel like.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
This whole thing, like leading up, I feel like he's
had some weird love moments like that, like he called
there was he was saying he was a huge fan
of somebody that was a man, and he was like,
she's hot, She's so hot, and then it was it
was a man like he he just remembered and there's a.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Little alon ramble. I was like the storship.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
Yeah, listen, I feel like it's hard for any political
candidate to like just speak all the time for that long.
And that's like what you walked into.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
But I don't know you have to. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I would be a bumbling idiot. But again that's true.
It's no real time to prepare anything, and just getting
up there said what happens now? What happens now in America?
When when does Joe Biden exit? And it looks like,
you know, barring, like.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
He's already exited, just in.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
A field, exited when he was president.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Also, guys, isn't it way more fun to talk about celebrities.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Let's get back to that.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Yeah, exactly what thinking over the air, and it was Yeah,
I was surprised, but not surprised with the results. Yes, yeah,
take care of yourself and we'll look forward to talking
to you next week.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
All right, have a good one, guys.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Now we are on a bit of a speakable things
jingly a little jingle balls are on their own little mission,
aren't they. Team We trying to avoid listening to Mariah
Carey's all I Want for Christmas the official anthem of Christmas,
and this is again not coming in from an anti
Christmas hate speech. Were all positive vibes on this show.
(25:13):
We love it, even me it was going to get
her house Christmas.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Up said doing that you play your alarm. That sounds
a lot like Mariah Carey. So but basically we're just
trying to avoid it for as long as possible, the
most iconic Christmas song yesterday. As soon as you hear it, sorry,
you're out of the game. And you just got to
tell us four eight seven the other game yesterday afterwards
after work. Two high risk environments for me. Firstly, you
had to go into the mall pick up some stuff.
(25:38):
I recorded a quick little bit just my nerves in
the mall. Okay, here at the more Christmas time, well
not quite Christmas time, so in November, a very high
risk environment. Got to get in get out before here
Mariah Carey wish me luck and yeah, didn't hear anything,
but I was the whole time you just conscious that
maybe over the loud speak every shop you go into
(26:00):
a lot of Christmas stuff everywhere. And then last night
saw your Yes, your husband Andrew was there as well.
A Christmas movie, it's the new movie Start of the Rock.
As soon as it started, I was excited about the Rock.
And soon as it started, I was like, they start
playing a Christmas song. I was like, oh, no, it's
gonna be. There's gonna be multiple Christmas and there were
throughout the movie, but thankfully not of that song.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
They didn't get the right.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
But I was just like.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Embracing yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, Christmas movies. The other one. I hadn't thought they
could trip you up that, you know, especially a new movie. Yeah,
this one the Rock Christmas and I was like, I
don't know what what songs are going to be coming up?
But thankfully for me, there was not Mariah Carey.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
So many texts to coming through on four four eight
seven people who work in retail high I woken retail
and I'm going to still haven't heard it yet, and
I'm going to be avoiding it. I wear headphones now
to the supermarket to avoid hearing it for this game.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
That's a good player. I don't want to hit heap
phones to them all.
Speaker 17 (26:57):
And the movie just listens now the text here, guys,
I'm out heard it and wire Worth Glenfield yesterday, So
it actually texts four four eighty seven have you been
mariahed already?
Speaker 4 (27:09):
Are you out of the game? Do you that song
she recorded in a.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Short amount of time, wasn't it? Oh?
Speaker 4 (27:15):
You roade it in fifteen minutes? But it was released
in nineteen ninety four and it didn't chart until twenty twelve.
What yeah, Because apparently there were rules around the charts
and Christmas songs. All right, So it didn't actually officially
chart until twenty twelve. It didn't even give them the
top one hundred.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
We were loving it before twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Right, hold, we will love it, so we still love it.
I try, I said, we're not trying to hate on
that song. It's like kit it. We just thought it'd
be fun to see how long we could avoid listening
to it. You can play along, like if you'd start
right now, it's fine. We make out the rules as
we go along for this game. So see how long
you can take to avoid Mariah Carey's all I want
for Christmas. But you need to let us know four
for eight seven when you do hear it, and you're
(27:57):
out of the game, because when we're all out, we'll
start playing the song.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
The hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
My wife has pulled me up on. I don't know
if you guys are the same, And I know where
it's Maybe it's come from doing this job where you're
having a conversation but you're listening to other other things
going on, seeing people even in TV, people are talking
in your ears. And she will often be talking to
me and then she'll go you're not listening, aren't you?

Want for Christmas. You're playing along as well. If you have,

well not quite Christmas time, so in November, a very
high risk environment got to get in and get out
before here Marai Carey wish me luck, anything, nothing, nothing,

had to spend some time at the mall. I was
going to get the stuff I needed, but they also
(38:52):
wait for it to pick up my daughter from her
the dance class afterwards. Normally I'd probably find somewhere in
the mall to do some work. No, I was set
a car in the car park. I was like, I can't.
I can't be here any longer than I need to be.
Because Mariah Carey could play, I could be out of
the game.

their tricker is going to the supermarket and the mall
with headphones on.
