Speaker 1 (00:00):
Do you know? Two retail questions for you? Kde giving
you a retail expert. Question Number one, did you know
that Jack White had shops?

Speaker 2 (00:08):
I did not know that.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Okay, so no use with the follow up question what
is he selling them? So that won't get answered too?

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Can we do a filop? Can we do a filot?
Did you know who Jack White was? Oh?

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Everyone knows who Jack White was, don't you.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
I would say, boom, I'd say something like shoes, sneakers
or baseball.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Hats, something like that.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Okay, Sammy, look it up and tell us what he
sells in the shops. Question number two, Katy, was it
you were telling me about pringles the other day? Were
you saying, and I haven't put this on the program
in case I got sued, did you say that pringles
are not called chips because they're not chips, and they're
not chips because they don't have any potatoes in them?
Is that right?

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Correct?

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Right?

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Correct?

Speaker 1 (00:43):
And did you also go on to say that they
don't have a single natural ingredient in them at all?
Or have I made that up?

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Much?

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Pretty much your chemicals.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
So that's the thing that doesn't exist. Shut the dog up.
That's the thing that doesn't exist until you get in
the lab and make it and put it in a
tube and call it something, and people buy it, and I.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Think what they do originally, I think what they do
is dry it out so they would claim it had
something like dried potato flakes in it.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
And then they just.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Add a whole bunch of like horrific oils and acids
and starches and salts and flavoring.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Wow. And the mask came along and paid eighty ninety
one hundred billion dollars for that.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Sorry, I'm trying to wrestle the dog.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Why why don't we talk about what's going now? What's
what's going on with the sink? Have you guys resolved
the sink? Do we have to do a marriage counseling session?

Speaker 1 (01:49):
A very good question, A very good question. Let me
let me you can to me? Can you want?

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Well, here's the here's the deal. I know that the sinks,
the sinks discolored. You might want a new sink. But
isn't the KPI a sink to be dirty? They're supposed
to be discolored. It's a sink. No, it's meeting it.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
No, No, no, I don't know where you get that
idea from that, you have a sink that's dirty, Why
would you have that? So some product arrived Katie yesterday,
run with the story from there.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
To clean the sink, the first of many sink cleaning
products that I'm trying. Well, you see, here's the problem
with the sink. And this is a really boring story.
So I don't know why we're talking about it on radio,
but anyway, it's boring at home, far less even more
boring for your listeners.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
But we have a sek some kind of.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Granite or something. The surface of it is rough, and
it's not you know, not rough rough, but rough as
and it's not like a smooth, porcelain, shiny, normal sink.
What did you say, Matt, Yeah, matte. It's like a
matte finish. And it's just a nightmare because everything that
goes down it just grabs onto and then the sink
gets you know, it just looks anyway.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Who gets caught in the mat it's exactly.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
I don't think it's it's not as bad as food
matter coordinate. It's more or less like staining.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Anyway, So have you tried anything and does it work?

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I haven't tried it. Yet because people have been making
breakfast and using the kitchen. So it has to be done,
like you have to leave it for a period of time.
So I have to do it when no one's using the.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Kitchen, Okay, Tim tease bombers, jackets and hoodies and some
sneakers is the answer question?

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Jack? What?

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah? You were right?

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Okay, but this this would be for middle aged people
who are still trying to pretend to you're young, aren't
they wouldn't it?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Oh you mean the clothing. I thought you're talking about
dooty sinks. I thought, oh, we got to do this sometime.
We're just middle aged and believe it. No, so, no,
the clothing, it probably it's probably got a bit of
that that retro boomer thing about it. Yeah, your fairpoint.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah, I think so. I think it's.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Carpet garaged him. That was the story of the week.
I don't care what anybody says. Carpet in the garage
was the story of the week. Your situations, Well, agree,
we don't have a garage.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
And if it's got carpet in it, So if it's
got carpet and it's not a garage, sorry, it's a
storage room.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Okay, you know, and you know what.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Here's the thing about garages. They are the graveyard of
unmade decisions. So stuff just piles up in garages. People
never never declutter their garage, so when they go to move,
it's a nightmare.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
It's a very well put line. It is, isn't it.
The reason that something's in a garage is because I
might need that. That's what you said, doesn't it. I
might need that because in the garage.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yeah, we could use that maybe in two to three years,
or there was one time eighteen months ago that I
needed that thing. So I'll just keep it here.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Let me ask you this question, because there's a question
Katie and I are asking a lot apart from shall
we stay married?

Speaker 3 (04:40):
The question stay married, stay married?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
The question we're asking ourselves.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Think. I think it's flint. It's a flint and steel
situation with U two, you two, you're sharpening each other.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Do we throw this out? And Katie will go no,
because one of the kids might need it when they
get their first house or move into their next flat
or whatever. Is that so it's not reasonable?

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Well, well, what's the thing though?

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Sofa thing desk, a sofa, stuff in storage, old kitchen.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
He would try to.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Facebook market forty bucks. Someone will come and take it
away from you for you.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
But what about the kids?

Speaker 3 (05:23):
They should buy their own dang sofa.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Have you considered taking it down to your local theater?
What the sink?

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Well, no, the sofa because domestic manager.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Or really so the local theater needs a sofa. She's
directing a play at the moment, and oh yeah she
needs a sofa.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Well, she had the sofa.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
But do you think that she could find any armchairs
that would match it? Well, you're gonna have a matching
Oh you know if if they're directing, if they're directing
a play. There was something I heard some bloke on
the radio doing a Kim dot Com personation that sounded
like Kim dot com Pakistani. They should put him in
the Absolute Gold.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
They've got to replay it because I feel sad for
the people before seven hoo missed out on here.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
All right, well there are there before seven missed out, Katie,
because unlike you, most people listen from six to nine.
But he goes Mike, Mike. I said, what, he goes
the Mike. It's Kim dot com, Kim dot com, And
I said hello, Kim, How how the hell did you
get my number? Anyway? He goes, Mike, why are your
such a hater? Why are you a hairtar?

Speaker 3 (06:23):
Mike?

Speaker 1 (06:24):
They are one thing to send me to America and
put me in an orange suit.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
I remember that you were so agreed.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I still haven't got to It's somebody at seven sharp
who gave my number to Kim dot.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Com unforgivable, and we were all about that at TV
and C. We were not allowed to give out people's
personal cell phone. So that person just obviously breached the rules.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Exactly and I gave it to him.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
Did he did? He? Heck it? Did? He? Heck it off?

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Probably so Katie for you Kimico. Couple of recommendations on Chemico.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, but it's not a stame as steel sink. I
think people might be misunderstanding. It is a white ceramic
like a marble, like a quartz type white matte finish.
It's not a regular sink. You can't put any bleach
on them at all. They're very, very delicate. They only
take a specific whitening product that comes out of like

(07:23):
Holland or something ridiculous. So hence why at the start
of the week I was like, right, rip the whole
sink out, let's start again, get a new sink. But
that involves cutting into beaches and bench stops and marble,
and you're expensive.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I'm about to suggest some unlettered ninety one in a match,
just a little bit, you know, just a woman put
a bit of carbon on top of it.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Reviews on you KDI so far is Kadie grumpy? And
she sounds flat to day?

Speaker 2 (07:50):
Hey, I was, why don't you share with the group
why I might be a little bit tired. I went
out on a school night last night. Actually, this is
a very good bouquet for Open City, and I've been
tough on them because I see it here of the CBD,
and I've been very vociferous of my criticism of them.
But I was out last night. The first thing I
saw at Vulcan Lane off High Street two. They weren't cops,

(08:10):
but they looked like cops. They had all the high
verse and the hats and the gear and the vests
and the torches and whatever. They've hired security guards. Fantastic
good presence in the city. And I was at Cassette nine,
a nightclub with a gig for kids. No I was
I was chaperoning some under eighteens at a gig. Anyway,
it was.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Fantastic, illegally at a nightclub, lightclubs and when I when
I came clubs, very good question.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
One of my sons texted me and said, oh my god, mom,
were you at Cassette nine. Were you in town on
a Thursday night? That's you know the gangs are there?
And I was like, no, I did not see a
single gang member. It was really good. But actually what's
funny is I was taking my daughter and so she
had her ID and I didn't take mine, and she
said in the uber, do you have your ID? Mom?
And I said, sweetheart, I'm fifty, I'm not. No one's

(08:58):
asking me for ID. I'm old. And when I got there,
they were like, where's your ID? And I said, and
we cracked up about it, and they were like, no,
we need to prove that you are her mother, that
you related. So I had to get up my credit
card and show them my last name and prove that
we were indeed family members.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
So you can get an underage you're in it's like
drinking wine in a restaurant, so the rules if they're underage.
But you're a parent and you say I'm a parent,
I'm taking them in you can? Is that the rule?

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Yeah? And she had to wear a wristband to show
the but so the bar and you not to serve
her alcohol. But I don't know that this wasn't just
for a specific this was an open This was an
event for bands. It was like a special night. So
I don't know if that's different.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
And you hit the floor, Caddy, did you bust out
a few moves in front of the kidden in the
marsh pit and the marsh put.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
That fantastic good one? And you got home at a
reasonable hour. Normally you get home between three thirty and
four and I've already gone to work, But this morning
you were home at about one thirty quarter to two,
So that was not bad day.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Yeah, And that was a good night. And I thought
I've been very down on Auckland and I was worried
about going in, but I actually I felt safe. So
that was that was a tune up for the books.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Mind you, most people wouldn't take you on.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Oh that's true.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
You had some You had some stilettos and a lot
of leather.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Much better with the gangs in town exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Nice to see you guys. You have a good weekend.
And we're not going to give the theater just for
the people who texted from Openaki and the Everybody's Theater.
We're not giving our couch to the Opinaki theater, are we, Paddy?

Speaker 2 (10:25):
No? No, we probably can't get it to Openaki, can we?

Speaker 3 (10:28):
Well we could both about the chem dot com impersonation,
give them that. For more from the mic Asking Breakfast,
