I'm a regular, your total regular.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
I'm just one of the I thought we got you
on the show, but more.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Actually, we started hot bringing you and BJ on quite
about and then it's sort of just tape it.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Has he not told you that we've actually started plotting
our own little podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I beat you about you, I beat you hair And
that's the that's part of the reason why we started
bringing you on, because we knew that you guys would
get too big for you.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Try and try stop it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
It is true. Whenever we have happened is annoying.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Everyone's like, oh my god, they're so good to get
them back. Talk for a living, Well, you kind of
do talk for a living, but my husband absolutely doesn't.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I would say that I probably do more talking than
you two put together.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That is true.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Can you sell us something really stupid, like something I
want something shitting that you can sell to us right
now the time?
Speaker 2 (01:09):
And also, you're not a cheese like you're not a
cheesy real estate agent. I need to be. Yeah, I
can tune up the cheese.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Okay, you're selling me a tiny room under the steers,
and it's got mold all through it and there's no insulation.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
So a few of the apartments.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Yeah, would you say, just go.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
To one of the websites. What depends if do you
need it?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, because they need it.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
There we go. The problem solved. They don't need to
sell it to you if you don't need it. It's
a lot harder. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Okay, Well what if I don't need.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
It, you can't. Well, if it's good enough for Harry Potter,
it's good enough for you, Peach. You know, he went
on to have a great life, and it all started
under the steers.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
There, you guys, I loved on a steer, a landing.
I lived on a landing when I lived in Christish
back in the day. I had a curtain as a
door and I think I spent seventy five bucks a
week on rent.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Was that your worst flat? Dury him?
Speaker 1 (02:10):
It was seriously the most interesting conditions I think was
even like I think my measress was on the floor.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Your mom a doctor.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, yeah, but that's a fall from grace.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Because PJ grew up on a three storied.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
House okay, yeah, no, it was just unique. Yeah no,
it was just a unique place in Methvin and if
you did like it was definitely the tallest three stories.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I don't know if you know this, Peach, but my
mum hailed from Methvin as well, so we might.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Be No, we won't there. I'm originally from Wales in England.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Although you're a good looking guy, i'd claim that, and
I actually got Actually I can't say you're a good
looking guy.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
So we look but we both got dark features.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Yeah, I would. Are you creeping on my husband?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I can't help it. You know all the time, exactly
the two of you do.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
I've never seen his ears perk up so much at
the of bea and a sausage roll.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Did you hear about the flat team that there was flirting?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
He gets hat on a lot and he gets off
the farm.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
He spends a bit more time with that. Does he
know it as well?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Is he aware of it? Hard out?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
I reckon? Yeah, he loves it, loves a bit of
a teen shirt.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
It's more than what the shake of him usually, if
you got any do it on midy.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Do this every time? But I think I need to
come in with a bit more. Well, I mean, if
we talked about the dog here.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Pretty big. Yeah, the radio people wont responsible period, The
podcasters won't probably know that. So I did I lift
the dog outside.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
I got home to a very anxious looking dog on
the doorstep this afternoon and had to do a double
take and oh my god, he actually is outside and
we're not.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
It's not a fully fenced property, so he easily can
get It's been like five hours you've been home. So
he was very very glad to get good side. Good boy,
great dog, Good boy.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Was he cold?
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Was he like?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Nah? It was fine. He was just very happy to
be inside. He must have been like, wait, this is
it for me?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Like was walking past feeling opportunistic.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
They could have absolutely necked it.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
They did, and they brought him back us us. We've
got a party to get to. We do all right?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
He's wrapping me up. Yeah, sorry, okay, now that's cool.
I'm jealous. But you're both been quite safe tonight, and

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Coming up of the podcast today, we talk about the
things that happened to you no one believes because you
didn't take a photo.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Also weirdo. We asked that question that.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Favorite LUs we played are you are? Our new favorite
occupational stereotyping game. We wanted to know are you a nurse?
Speaker 3 (05:39):
All that and so much. We're all coming up of
the podcast. Enjoy bye, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I have an event to go to tonight.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Coll When do you have a week where you don't
have an event? It's very hard to keep up with you,
Matthew McClain.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I swear to god, I never used to be like, do.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
You think it's because you had so many years of
doing breakfast televisions where you had such strict schedules. Yeah,
now you're just overcompensating and making up for that time.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
We didn't really get to party.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Let It's like when someone from like an Amish community
is all of a sudden like allowed, yeah truly, And I'm.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Just like you have strict parents and then you go
to university just got wild exactly.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So I'm going to this event tonight and it's it's
themed at Prey Ski. You know at Pray Ski parties
are like the things where they have after like a
day skiin, you go to like the lodge on the
ski on the mountain and you have drinks and stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Why does that an April spirits come to mind? Is
that usually what you'd have for an a prey.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
May maybe too cold? I'm thinking mold wine. That's what
comes to mind for me.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Okay, okay, well we'll report back. Let us know what
you have.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
So it's at Prey Ski and I was like what
does that mean? And I googled it and all of
the images of at Prai Ski themes were like those
very very bright colorful jackets ski jackets from like the
eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Yes, iconic. So often they'd be like full jump sucks.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Absolutely and often attached like it wouldn't be like, it
wouldn't be it would be a one piece Yeah, yeah,
and so I thought, well, I should dress up for
the party and so but I didn't. What I've done
in the past is with themed was with dress ups.
Is I've gone all out and spent so much money
in a costume I'm only ever going to wear once,
(07:32):
which is so stupid, Like that's a lot, it's lot,
a lot. Yeah, you got to weigh it up exactly,
and then you hoard it and you keep it in
your closet and again never wear it again, and then
it gets donated eventually. So I thought, I'm not going
to do that this time. I'll reach it. I'll put
something on Instagram and see if any of my friends
have any of these jackets that I might be able
to borrow. So I did that, and none of my
(07:54):
friends came back to me. Like stranger, Like a random
woman came back to me and said, yeah, I've got
one we bought We bought it for a dress up
thing and have never worn it again, only ever worn once.
And it just so happened she lived just around the
corner from me. So I went and picked it up
today from.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Wait, hello, so you'd never met this lady?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
No, And I thought, isn't there the kindness of strangers.
She's just lent me her jacket for the night.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Have you cleaned it?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No? Should I have? I? But then this is my
this is my question, because I'm only wearing it once.
I'm wearing it tonight. It's not it's not going to
be a long, big party. It's only I'm only going
to be there for a couple of hours. And then
I just said I'll drop it off tomorrow, and she's like, no, rush,
just get a bit to me. Whenever do I do
I have to clean this?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You're pretty clean. I think you're well de oder eyed.
You shouldn't worry about the things. But it's a difficult.
It's a difficult.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
It's really hard to clean. It's one I don't think.
I don't think it's just chuck it in the washing machine.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
I don't think you could wash it. You'd run the
resk of it. She's shrinking it and you'd have to
take it.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
To a dry cleaners. But there's far too much.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
And now that I sniff it like, it's got the
distinct smell that it's been sitting in an attic for
like two years.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Post right, So as long as you just maintain the ethics, smell.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Good to go sweets.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Every day and the podcast.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Now you say some weird things on this show.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
That was a compliment. Okay, No, I love it, but
there is sometimes where I go, wow, wow, I don't.
I'm so surprised by what you just said. And last
night on the podcast, we do a podcast every day.
You can go back and listen to our show and
we do a little intro, a little private podcast introduction,
(09:49):
and we were recording the introduction to the podcast, and
you said this, which I'm still thinking about to this minute.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I got two friends that are genuinely afraid of wrist.
Do you have any body parts that you just can't
deal with?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Me afraid of?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Or just like touching rests, putting your hands over rest
they just freak cars? You have?
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Wait, you know not one, but two people that are afraid.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Of resk two of my really good friends, Gina and Maxwell.
Both of them, Yeah, they hate wrists.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
It really wasn't the respect of the response I was expecting.
I came to the table with that thinking that was
just going to be a common phobia.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I think that's so weird, don't you.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
No, I think of any body parts I understand because
that part of the arm is exposed, it's then it's vulnerable.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
You can see the veins, And I get it.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I get why, Like they just they'll squirm anytime they
see it being touched. But we're okay with having a rest, Yeah,
they're okay with that. It's just when you make a
real effort to like go across the rest or touch
the rest, or squeeze the rest.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
I think it's a weird phobia. And I think it's
weird that you know two secret people that have the
same focus and.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
They're two of my really good friends.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Were were you attracting into a lie?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I thought this was common grant I. I mean, it's
not a full blown phobia. But this is one thing
that freaks me out, and that is the texture of
a marshmallow. Oh okay, you know the feeling, the visceral
feeling you get from like nails going down to chalkboard
like that with you're sort of like here's on your
(11:22):
backstand up. That's what I get from the feeling of
a marshmallow. Am I alone?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I beat You're not. It's weird, but it's not. It's
not super crazy. Mine is and I don't even know
if this is that weird. I'm sure lots of people
have this, but I hate rubber bands being pointed at me.
So if people go like this with a rubber band,
Oh my god, and Ryan, my husband knows it, and
my god, does he take advantage of it.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
It's so so glad that, in fact, now that it is,
that is really good to know.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Thank you for me welcome.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Oh wait, one hundred hairs.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I thought we could have not the phones this afternoon
or text all for eight seven? Do you have a
strange phobia and a rational phobia something that people are like, what,
why are you scared of that?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
We're not talking. I don't want your rats or your
mice or your that's all.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
That's all pretty common. Something a little strange that you're
afraid of. Give us a call right now. Oh wait,
one hundred the hat so you can tax four for
eight seven. We've got hahl peaks about just to.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
Give away Jay the podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Talking strange phobias. Is there something you're afraid of that
is a little out the gate.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You have two friends and you revealed this on the
podcast last night that are afraid of wrists, which I
just think is such a weird phobia to have.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I was really hoping to get solidarity on the text machine,
but there have been no follow up messages with people saying,
oh my god, I've got a.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Rest so many other phobias. I'm going to read a
couple of quick texts. Yeah, someone who has a phobia
for food that's been reheated, like in the miment.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Oh, I get that. I actually get there.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
There's something achy about it after it's got cold, and
then you hate it up again.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
This person, apparently the one that has the phobia gets
switty palms and.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I can't handle what an icebox stacks.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I've got a friend like this as well. On my
tongue or even the feeling of holding it. I have
to keep the wrap around it. At least got of
the phones the hat. Hello, Emily, good afternoon, Good afternoon.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
What's your phobia?
Speaker 8 (13:20):
I can't wear any of my own clothing if someone
else has worn it.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
What.
Speaker 8 (13:27):
Wow, somebody puts my shoes on, I feel creepy and
yucky and I can never wear them again.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
What if they put on your jumper and then washed it?
Is it just the Yeah? Does the washing kind of erase.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
The so jumpers are probably hit or miss, depends on
what they're doing while they're wearing my jersey.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Do you know what it is about it that freaks
you out so much?
Speaker 8 (13:54):
Someone that think maybe it's like there the skin concept?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Oh yeah, and like you thinking about how much skinny shared.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Yeah, but I will.
Speaker 8 (14:04):
Very quickly put on somebody else's shoes to run out
to the woodshed. But do that to mine? I can't really.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Or no judgment things.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
That's the thing about phobia is they often are irrational,
and we know are irrational.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Yeah, we've got to help it actually coming your way.
Let's got to Haley on hats high, Hailey, what's your fear?
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Okay, speaking of irrational, I'm scared of the roof falling
in on me when I have acupuncture needles And.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Wow, do you feel like a dream that like prompted.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
This or why no experience in this matter? Yeah, I'm
just and as a consequence, I don't have acupuncture.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
You would you would never get it? No, what if
you were out, could you do like an walking could.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
You feel like a walking acupuncture sea shirt?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Will you make sure the acupuncture is like takes the
table outside and you do it in the park or something,
because I'm.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Also scared that maybe there'll be a fire alarm.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh ok thing, Oh you're missing out is so good?
Ales go to Rachel. Hats high, Rach, what's your rational phobia?
Speaker 9 (15:21):
My fibera is you're.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
Gonna think it's weird.
Speaker 10 (15:23):
Okay, don't laugh. Do we want because when you're in
I can't go on a car wash because I think,
you know the arm thing that comes up and it
lifts up in front of the car with the brushes
and itt on. I think it's not going to lift
up and come into the wood screen and cut me.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
For some reason.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Rachel, Actually, I don't know if I should tell your
experience that happened to me in the car wash.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Do you want to hear it?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Yep? Okay.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
So when I was young and my grandmother and I
went into the BP car wash on Fenalt and Roade
and christ Church. I vividly remember it, and we'd forgotten
to shut the boot.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I think we're in like a kind of Sedani kind of.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Car, like, well, you've got the boot that pops up,
and so we hadn't shut up properly, and we go
through the car wash and then the boot smashes through
the back window and glass went all through the car.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Oh no, great, I shouldn't have told you that. I
shouldn't have told you that.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But like there was a one off and we were
all good and it wasn't. The big n arms stayed
well away from us.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Scarred poor Rachel.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
No one got hurt rage And it was years ago.
They've upgraded the technology so much stopped.
Speaker 8 (16:29):
For some reason.
Speaker 10 (16:30):
I sort of get that feeling, like you know in
Final Destination movies.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
That's sort of won't happen to you, Rachel. But I understand. Hey,
no judgment on the show. Thank you so much for calling.
We've got how Pizza vout?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
You coming? You're well?
Speaker 6 (16:43):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
The podcast that the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody
comes together.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
It's the People's Poll.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
At that time of the day where we throw out
a topic to you and you weigh in on the
text machine.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Today and inspired by true events.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Yes, there has been a table upstairs in our building
which for three days now has had three dollars in
coins just sitting on the table and.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Silver or gold gold, Ye, the good stuff.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yeah, and so a bunch of our colleagues in the
in the hits team have been wondering it's there. It's
been there for three days, on the same table. Clearly
no one's claimed it. Is it fear game to take
that money and claim it for yourself.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
No, it's a work environment.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Someone might be away for a few days and maybe
they've been waiting and maybe that is money allocated for
their little treat in the afternoon, and they've gone away.
They come back and they're like, hang on, who has
literally stolen my money?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
If you've gone away, it's on a communal table. It's
not on someone's desk. It's a communal table. And if
you've gone away for three days, there's no way you've
either forgotten about the money or there's no way you're
coming back and expecting the three dollars to still be there.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Okay, I hear you, But I feel like in a
work environment, I don't know what if the money, what
if the money was what if the money was out
in the eight trim here just on the floor outside the.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Left, that's different.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I think if you find a dollar on the floor,
I don't know, it's just the old skoom wine set
of like, oh I'm.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Lucky today, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Whereas if I find it in a work office on
a table, it's not like I've just stumbled upon it.
It's like I've kind of gone out to seek it.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
I don't know. Is it a weird It's not weird
at all. It's not weird at all. I totally know
where you're coming from. But do you also get how? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Yeah I do.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Where do you actually draw the lineen? Is that okay
to take the money? And when's it full blown stealer?
Speaker 2 (18:45):
So I guess the people's pole question today is is
it okay, yeah, for someone to take the money that's
been sitting on the table for three days?
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Okay? Takes through now four for eight seven.
Speaker 6 (18:57):
The podcast.
Speaker 11 (19:00):
Heads the People's Poll, the People's Poll. Everybody comes together,
it's the People's Poll.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Okay, Well, this is blown up the machine.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
So someone in our office found saw three dollars sitting
on a communal table in the office and it had
sat there for three days. So the question is is
it okay to take the three dollars it's been there
for three days? Or do you just leave it?
Speaker 3 (19:23):
This is so many good texts.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Maybe the clean has found it on the floor and
put it on the table, so it's like finding on
the floor money. Really it's anybody's Someone else said it
depends how much. If it's least than five bucks, fine
is keepers. But if it's say twenty, I would leave it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Lots of people on the moral high ground saying absolutely not.
If it isn't yours, leave it alone.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
No, it is theft.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, it's still a theft. Is per the crimes.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
As someone also said, No, it's an employer's trick to
gauge honesty.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Of stuff, which as a bad point.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
The other one A lot of people said, do it,
but use the money communally, so like pecket of biscuits
or back of lollies. And I do quite like that.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
I would say that's the best solution, possibly.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Directly anyway, another day of the people's politics so much
we're texting in four four eight.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Seven the podcast.
Speaker 12 (20:19):
Are You.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
A Nurse?
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Is what we're after this week.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
This is our occupation stereotyping game, which we have quite
a bit of fun with every week you call us up,
oh waite hundred the hats and yes, this week we're
after a nurse.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Whether you are or not, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
It's your job to convince us though that you are
a nurse. And this is where the beauty comes in.
Some people were convincing. We were sure that guy was
a teacher. I think sure.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
The other week we had three people convince us off
cops and none of them were of.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Them right, but they were so convincing.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Or at least got a Donna first up and Nelson, Donna,
you're a nurse?
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yes? Yes, okay, there was.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
That was good from you page, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I've got to follow up question though, And my follow
up question Donna is when was your last chefteen?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
You haven't been a nurse for a while, for a while,
but you were a nurse.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You So, okay, lot, I think Donna's no, I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Think she's a nurse. I think she got stomped. Maybe
she was a nurse many years ago. But Donna, are
you a nurse?
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I am actually a nurse?
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Oh no?
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Why did you stud me? Were you just trying to
stump me?
Speaker 8 (21:52):
I still have my practicing certificate, but now I don't
practice so much?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Right, Okay, all right, okay, So that's a zero from
one for us all right, that's true.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
That was true.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
That was that was tricky. Amanda.
Speaker 8 (22:08):
Hi, Hi, how are you doing?
Speaker 13 (22:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Very well, Mandie. What would you like to ask?
Speaker 2 (22:13):
I want to know what department you're an Amanda? Oh,
good question.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
I care, urgent.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Kire urgent care. Did you see that with conviction as well?
I recompete?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Is that what they usually officially call it?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Maybe I wouldn't know. I'm not a nurse.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Okay. Are we allowed to back up one more?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
And then?
Speaker 3 (22:33):
What do you usually for lunch?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
For lunch?
Speaker 4 (22:38):
Assoshi?
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Actually, I can.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
See in this you tell the people.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
I don't know why I've got this stereotype of making
that nurses have solid it's kind of solid.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Amanda's a nurse?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Ye are you a news?
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Got him?
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Okay, so fifty fifty split at the moment, we're doing
all right, leaks, reap it up with my naked on
eight hundred of the hats.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Hello, Maniche, Hello, hell?
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Are you good?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Very well?
Speaker 6 (23:16):
Very well?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Time? Thank you?
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Okay, I'm going to crack into it with a slightly
hard question. I'm going to say, Manete, you should know this.
What's an average resting heart?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Right?
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Okay, we don't need a follow up.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
You're definitely not a nurse, are you?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I have that one hundred and sixty is like you
need you've just done a massive exercise class.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh she didn't even come in with the confidence like
you could just tell she knew you were all right.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
So there was two out of three.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
If you've got any ideas for what occupations we should
do next week, text through.
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Now four four eight the podcast.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
At a freaking moment last night, guys, I was going
into the toilet. Now, let me paint the picture of
a rather unique bathroom that we have at our heart.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I love your bathrooms.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
There's many quirks and kinks to our house. And in
our bathroom, you have to walk up these stairs to
what we call like a throne. It is it is,
and then under the stairs, it's like there's a bunker.
So if the apocalypse would ever occur, you could just
go under there, and there's heaps of food. You know,
if there was like a storm, you could probably be
(24:48):
protected under there. You know, there's many many purposes for
the for the room under the stairs. Anyway, I was
walking up the stairs and I came across. I cad
you not the largest spider that I have ever witnessed
in New Zealand. I did live in Australia for a while,
and I think I saw a Huntsman which was huge.
(25:10):
This was so big, like if I put my hands
up like this to you, it was probably a goode
at least five six centimeters in diameter. Wow, like giant.
And then so I panicked and I called my husband
and I go, bajee bay ye, get here now, and
he got off the couch not fast enough. By the
time he arrived, the spider had like gone down the
(25:34):
stairs walk and so it just completely just disappeared. And
he's like, maybe sure you saw this, and I'm like, no.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
I did.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
It was honestly the biggest spider I've ever seen. And
now it was one of those moments that I just
wish I'd taken a photo.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
And second, are you now seeking gissing yourself.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Like, I'm no, I know it was huge, but I
know that I sound a little bit because it sounds
bigger than like one that you know you'd usually probably see.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Hearing THEILM totally and you don't have you don't have
evidence of it.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I don't have evidence, and it's I actually had a
friend once who was We were in Vegas together at
like the iHeartRadio Festival, and he just popped off to
go to the toilet and he came back and he's like, guys,
you won't believe I saw on the way to the loan.
We're like, who, And you know the really well known
TV host James Corden. He's like, I saw James Cardham.
We chatted and everything. We're like, did you get a photo?
And he was like no, and so we will it
(26:30):
didn't happen to it one of those moments where.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
You're like, pecky, or it didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yes, I get it, And it's one of those things
where your friends go, I don't know if I believe you,
because I can't. I don't have evidence that this happened.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
But that's honestly the freaking biggest spider that I've seen
on our shores in New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
It was streaking huge.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh eight hundred of hats. I thought we could have
some fun this afternoon. What incredible thing happened to you?
Or maybe it was maybe it wasn't like amazing, but
some thing wild happened to you. But people don't believe
you because you didn't take a photo or a video
at the time, so you don't actually have any evidence
of this incredible story. I'll wait one hundred of hats
(27:13):
you can text four four eight seven. Oh, we've got
some help peaks of archers to give away. I'm sure
we can get better stories than my spot. I know
my spider worm is good.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I just don't believe it was.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I wait under the hats text four for eight seven.
What amazing thing happened to you? But people don't believe
you because you didn't take a photo. Will take your
calls me.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
We're asking the question, what happened to you? But no
one believes it because you didn't get a photo or
a video.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I was in London and I sat down at it
outside the long table like a communal table, to have
my breakfast, and I realized I was sitting right next
to Sam Smith or what of it I was, But
I never took a photo of it, and people.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
I don't believe it.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
No, I didn't want to interrupt his breakfast, but we
sat next to each other at a KFA in London.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Oh, I hand you the hats is that you can
join the show? Or takes four for eight seven? Herman
joining us? Herman, what happened to you that no one
believes because you didn't take a photo?
Speaker 9 (28:21):
So this was at a time when cell phone cameras
took shitty images, right, Yeah, But I was on a
flight and I was sat next to a rather attractive lady.
We struck up a conversation, and it was a long flight.
(28:43):
I couldn't shake that somehow I'd seen her somewhere.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Sure, And then.
Speaker 9 (28:48):
When we landed at our destination, you know, rather sheepishly,
I asked, I said, I'm so sorry, but you look
awfully familiar. May I ask you what your name is?
And she shook my hand very politely, and you said Hi,
I'm schmitta sen and who it turns out was a
former Miss Universe. And I sat next to her on
a flight and I was.
Speaker 14 (29:08):
Spoken with, Oh, I'm.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
She's a very attractive woman.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
You do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
You played at Colhuly So I was.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
I was asleep and probably snoring for that.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Then oh, he's got a Peter on the high people?
What happened to you? But no one believes because you
didn't get a photo.
Speaker 7 (29:36):
Well, I was over in New York for work, remember,
staying in the Saint Regious Hotel, and that night we
were going to offency dress like a Great Gatsby sort
of things. So they gave us costumes and fake mustaches
and stuff like that, and I'm already I've already gone
on the Stars. So I put on this fake stache
over the top of it, went on the left to
go down to the lobby and meet everybody else. And
(29:56):
there was repaying out in the lift and and some
other guy, and they were like looking at me, going
look at this cooky guy at the same region's hotel
with a fake the stars dressed up and red clothes,
and you feel them moved to one side of the lift.
I had to I had to explain why I was
wearing this fake mustache, and I said, I'm going off
to this this thing sort of thing. But I didn't
(30:18):
want to ask for a selfie because you're in a
lip and they looked like I was crazy. When we
got to the ground floor and the doors open and
the whole lobby was full of people just dressed like me,
because we're all going fussing over to this event, and
you could see them go, ah, this guy is not crazy.
(30:39):
They slipped out through the back like a couple of
people saw them. But none of my friends in New
Zealand they tell people about They go, no, mate, no
it didn't happen exactly.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Oh, thank you so much for your cold page. We're
going to help its have actually coming away.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
There were a lot of famous people in the text
as well. Someone said, I mean Kanate in the airport
and fourteen US and for a photo, but he said no,
which is fair because no one believes me now that
I met Kanye West.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Yeah, that's a big one. Surely you do a sneaky
little photo.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
The podcast.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
It's very very handy, but it is an interesting thing
selling things online, you know, like on trade me or Facebook,
Marketplace or wherever you go to sell your weares and
your goods. There's often a really interesting story that goes
with it because it is a funny thing, like inviting
someone around your house to pick up something that was
(31:37):
previously owned by you that you've now given away to someone.
There's lots of layers to it.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
To this day, the best purchase I've made through Facebook
marketplace was a bookshelf in the shape of a canoe,
and it actually was a canoe that was rescued from
the Indonesian tsunami years ago. And it's amazing and I
got it for such a steal.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Do you still have it?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 13 (32:03):
I do so.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
It's a bit of a hazard.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Actually I need to kind of tie it to the
wall because my toddler climbs everywhere.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
I do really need.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Faster than But it's amazing, and it was like one
hundred and fifty bucks we had usually spend probably a
lot more. No, it is really cool, Oh, senior photo
as efact like no one else would have this, and
it's got such a great story to it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
My question is, are you sure they weren't a fake story? No?
Speaker 1 (32:27):
I actually the people seemed really genuine. I got it
from Wellington. Everything seemed pretty above board. Now you're making
me question myself.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Well, it just like a welling if someone in Wellington
owning a canoe that I think.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
That lived over there sure years ago. Okay, oh senior packet,
I leave pretty impressive.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
I leave the story, believe the story. But something happened
to produce a sierra today, which we all kind of
laughed at when she told us, because it is kind
of weird what happened with your Facebook marketplace story today?
Speaker 13 (32:58):
Okay, so I was selling some knive block and some
knives along with the knife blocks.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Yes, which, first of all.
Speaker 13 (33:04):
Is it, like, is it legal to sell knives on Facebook?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I did a quick Google and I think you're fine.
I think you are fine.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
It does feel very dicey, though, doesn't it.
Speaker 13 (33:13):
Yes, And so this I suggested to meet at my
house or in the CBD in Auckland where we work.
Obviously it's a lot easier for people to get into
central Auckland. And they were like, yeah, CBD, you know,
twelve o'clock. I was like, okay, col I gave the
address of this workplace just to feel safe.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Yeah, idea.
Speaker 13 (33:31):
They were like here and I was like okay. So
I went out onto the street. I had like a
red warehouse bag with the knife blocks and then the
knives I wrapped like six times and like glad rap
sure tea towel like I was so near about hanging
it over to someone on the street. Then I couldn't
find them. And for twenty minutes we're messaging back and forth,
(33:52):
going here and I was like we yeah, I've got
a red bag, and they were like outside and I
was like looking around the street and then I was like, wait,
is this a trap?
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Oh?
Speaker 13 (34:06):
Then I found them and it just they just there
was a bit of a scotcha.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
But for twenty minutes you were the weirdo standing out
on the street with a bunch of knives.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
At least they were wrapped up multiple doses that would
have locked.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Real You just hand vibes over and like it would
scissor hands of just a bunch of knives in your hands,
just waving them around the streets. Where are you.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Ten dollars for me?
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Lead's open the phone, let's talk marketplace messhaps. I remember
I made a purchase years ago and like it looked
too good to be true.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
It was this ip at wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Anyway, it got totally done and they weren't legit and
I got scammed, and luckily because it was paid through PayPal,
I got them money refunded.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
But I'd say so.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Common, I'd say, so many weird things have happened on
market place or trade me give us a go eight
hundred so you can stay in on on this. What
was your marketplace, miss hap.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
Mary and PJ.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Mary and PJ the podcast The head Shocking Marketplace mishaps
what happened when you try to sell or buy something online?
You can join the show and we've got some goodies
for you. Let's go to the phones. Kumar is joining us,
Hi Koma.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Hello, how are you good?
Speaker 7 (35:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 14 (35:28):
I mean there was a small storage cabinet which we
had myself and wife actually restore it. My wife's actually
artistically painted it, handpainted it and made it really look beautiful.
But this is to move to the new house. We
can actually hold on to it. So we put it
on the marketplace and there's a lot of inquiries and
(35:49):
this couple came over all good and they came over,
took it and they were happy with it, and they
mean asked to pay cat like okay, it's the bank things,
It's okay, all good. They quickly showed me the screenshot
of the I was like, yeah, all good. Fine, that
was being a week and soatorically take a couple of
days arrived in my bank card come on day didn't
(36:11):
so contacting bag had no reply.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Oh the buggers is the problem with the regulation is it? Like?
Speaker 3 (36:18):
What is the regulation? When it comes to marketplace.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Well, I guess it's just a it's up to you.
It's an open it's an open slather. So if they
say if you ask them to pay cash and they
say they'll do a bank transfer like they did with
k and then they never trust Yeah, you either trust
them or you don't.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Someone see my husband brought a miniature Highland car Highland
Highland Highland car off marketplace, brought the photos of the
car he put just time to show the kids. They
got super excited. They called it food and end. He
arranged with the person to go pick it up the
next day. It all contact went quiet and then went
back to the forest Facebook post read in the comments
it was actually a scam. Never got his seven fifty back. However,
he did find a miniature cow from a local lady
(36:58):
that he went and viewed first.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
And the kids have now called it food and.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Okay, so happy ending. Just seven hundred and fifty bucks
out of pot.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
A couple of comments here on facebook page. You can
find us on the Hit Drive with MADYMPJ. Someoney said
I bought a bookcase off marketplace, got mum to babysit well,
Habby and I went to collect it, borrowed a car
so that it would fit. Turned up it was a
kid's sized book. Place could lift the whole thing with
one hand.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I feel like I get sucked into that stuff online,
like often the size. I don't always look at the measurement.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
But even if I even if I look at the measurements,
I'm so terrible with understanding measurements that I wouldn't make
any sense to me.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
I need a big object to give it context, to
know exactly what we're working with. Oh Julian's called through
oh Wite hundred the hats with a bit of a warning.
Apparently he's a bit of a scam going around a
marketplace at the moment.
Speaker 12 (37:51):
Julian, Yeah, that's the one. I don't know if you
guys have heard of this, but I was selling something
on marketplace seven and fifty dollars. Someone comes along says,
I'm happy to pay that, no problem, so you give
them your bank account. Meanwhile, the scammer tries to sell
something themselves way too good to be true, So they
get a third person along who actually pays the money
(38:14):
and they put it into my bank account. So they
sold something for fifteen hundred dollars. The next thing, there's
fifteen hundred dollars in my bank account. I said, oh, what,
she made a mistake. They're like, cool, can you pay
the seven to fifty back into this account? As soon
as you paid the seven fifty, you never hear from
them again, don't need them or nothing.
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
So is there any way that you can tell that
the item that's been listed as a scale? Is there
any kind of like giveaway and the text or the
way they sell it.
Speaker 12 (38:44):
Probably not look like a pretty legit profile and stuff,
But them just vanished though.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
That's key where I.
Speaker 12 (38:53):
Sort of slipped up like this, This is when they like
put it into this other account, it should have just
gone back into the original one to them.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Yeah yeah, oh there's a good uh.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
It's a good little heads up from Mugulian. Thanks so
much for that.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Thanks to the pace. Someone said I was selling a
phone on Marketplace. Someone said they were interested, but could
I drop it off because they were drunk. It was
ten am on a Tuesday morning. Oh wow, well, no judgment.
Speaker 6 (39:18):
Many and PJ the podcast that
Many and the podcast that Hi everybody, and welcome to

about and then it's sort of just tape it.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Has he not told you that we've actually started plotting
our own little podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I beat you about you, I beat you hair And
that's the that's part of the reason why we started
bringing you on, because we knew that you guys would
get too big for you.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Try and try stop it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
It is true. Whenever we have happened is annoying.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Everyone's like, oh my god, they're so good to get
them back. Talk for a living, Well, you kind of
do talk for a living, but my husband absolutely doesn't.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I would say that I probably do more talking than
you two put together.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That is true.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Can you sell us something really stupid, like something I
want something shitting that you can sell to us right
now the time?
Speaker 2 (01:09):
And also, you're not a cheese like you're not a
cheesy real estate agent. I need to be. Yeah, I
can tune up the cheese.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Okay, you're selling me a tiny room under the steers,
and it's got mold all through it and there's no insulation.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
So a few of the apartments.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Yeah, would you say, just go.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
To one of the websites. What depends if do you
need it?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, because they need it.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
There we go. The problem solved. They don't need to
sell it to you if you don't need it. It's
a lot harder. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Okay, Well what if I don't need.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
It, you can't. Well, if it's good enough for Harry Potter,
it's good enough for you, Peach. You know, he went
on to have a great life, and it all started
under the steers.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
There, you guys, I loved on a steer, a landing.
I lived on a landing when I lived in Christish
back in the day. I had a curtain as a
door and I think I spent seventy five bucks a
week on rent.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Was that your worst flat? Dury him?
Speaker 1 (02:10):
It was seriously the most interesting conditions I think was
even like I think my measress was on the floor.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Your mom a doctor.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, yeah, but that's a fall from grace.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Because PJ grew up on a three storied.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
House okay, yeah, no, it was just unique. Yeah no,
it was just a unique place in Methvin and if
you did like it was definitely the tallest three stories.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I don't know if you know this, Peach, but my
mum hailed from Methvin as well, so we might.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Be No, we won't there. I'm originally from Wales in England.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Although you're a good looking guy, i'd claim that, and
I actually got Actually I can't say you're a good
looking guy.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
So we look but we both got dark features.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Yeah, I would. Are you creeping on my husband?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I can't help it. You know all the time, exactly
the two of you do.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
I've never seen his ears perk up so much at
the of bea and a sausage roll.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Did you hear about the flat team that there was flirting?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
He gets hat on a lot and he gets off
the farm.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
He spends a bit more time with that. Does he
know it as well?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Is he aware of it? Hard out?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
I reckon? Yeah, he loves it, loves a bit of
a teen shirt.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
It's more than what the shake of him usually, if
you got any do it on midy.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Do this every time? But I think I need to
come in with a bit more. Well, I mean, if
we talked about the dog here.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Pretty big. Yeah, the radio people wont responsible period, The
podcasters won't probably know that. So I did I lift
the dog outside.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
I got home to a very anxious looking dog on
the doorstep this afternoon and had to do a double
take and oh my god, he actually is outside and
we're not.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
It's not a fully fenced property, so he easily can
get It's been like five hours you've been home. So
he was very very glad to get good side. Good boy,
great dog, Good boy.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Was he cold?
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Was he like?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Nah? It was fine. He was just very happy to
be inside. He must have been like, wait, this is
it for me?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Like was walking past feeling opportunistic.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
They could have absolutely necked it.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
They did, and they brought him back us us. We've
got a party to get to. We do all right?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
He's wrapping me up. Yeah, sorry, okay, now that's cool.
I'm jealous. But you're both been quite safe tonight, and
you're both driving, aren't you.
Speaker 4 (04:50):

hot in.
Speaker 3 (04:55):

Speaker 3 (05:14):
I'm still here.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, Chris bloody turn up all right.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Coming up of the podcast today, we talk about the
things that happened to you no one believes because you
didn't take a photo.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Also weirdo. We asked that question that.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Favorite LUs we played are you are? Our new favorite
occupational stereotyping game. We wanted to know are you a nurse?
Speaker 3 (05:39):
All that and so much. We're all coming up of
the podcast. Enjoy bye, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I have an event to go to tonight.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Coll When do you have a week where you don't
have an event? It's very hard to keep up with you,
Matthew McClain.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I swear to god, I never used to be like, do.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
You think it's because you had so many years of
doing breakfast televisions where you had such strict schedules. Yeah,
now you're just overcompensating and making up for that time.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
We didn't really get to party.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Let It's like when someone from like an Amish community
is all of a sudden like allowed, yeah truly, And I'm.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Just like you have strict parents and then you go
to university just got wild exactly.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So I'm going to this event tonight and it's it's
themed at Prey Ski. You know at Pray Ski parties
are like the things where they have after like a
day skiin, you go to like the lodge on the
ski on the mountain and you have drinks and stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Why does that an April spirits come to mind? Is
that usually what you'd have for an a prey.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
May maybe too cold? I'm thinking mold wine. That's what
comes to mind for me.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Okay, okay, well we'll report back. Let us know what
you have.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
So it's at Prey Ski and I was like what
does that mean? And I googled it and all of
the images of at Prai Ski themes were like those
very very bright colorful jackets ski jackets from like the
eighties and nineties.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Yes, iconic. So often they'd be like full jump sucks.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Absolutely and often attached like it wouldn't be like, it
wouldn't be it would be a one piece Yeah, yeah,
and so I thought, well, I should dress up for
the party and so but I didn't. What I've done
in the past is with themed was with dress ups.
Is I've gone all out and spent so much money
in a costume I'm only ever going to wear once,
(07:32):
which is so stupid, Like that's a lot, it's lot,
a lot. Yeah, you got to weigh it up exactly,
and then you hoard it and you keep it in
your closet and again never wear it again, and then
it gets donated eventually. So I thought, I'm not going
to do that this time. I'll reach it. I'll put
something on Instagram and see if any of my friends
have any of these jackets that I might be able
to borrow. So I did that, and none of my
(07:54):
friends came back to me. Like stranger, Like a random
woman came back to me and said, yeah, I've got
one we bought We bought it for a dress up
thing and have never worn it again, only ever worn once.
And it just so happened she lived just around the
corner from me. So I went and picked it up
today from.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Wait, hello, so you'd never met this lady?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
No, And I thought, isn't there the kindness of strangers.
She's just lent me her jacket for the night.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Have you cleaned it?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No? Should I have? I? But then this is my
this is my question, because I'm only wearing it once.
I'm wearing it tonight. It's not it's not going to
be a long, big party. It's only I'm only going
to be there for a couple of hours. And then
I just said I'll drop it off tomorrow, and she's like, no, rush,
just get a bit to me. Whenever do I do
I have to clean this?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You're pretty clean. I think you're well de oder eyed.
You shouldn't worry about the things. But it's a difficult.
It's a difficult.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
It's really hard to clean. It's one I don't think.
I don't think it's just chuck it in the washing machine.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
I don't think you could wash it. You'd run the
resk of it. She's shrinking it and you'd have to
take it.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
To a dry cleaners. But there's far too much.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
And now that I sniff it like, it's got the
distinct smell that it's been sitting in an attic for
like two years.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Post right, So as long as you just maintain the ethics, smell.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Good to go sweets.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Every day and the podcast.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Now you say some weird things on this show.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
That was a compliment. Okay, No, I love it, but
there is sometimes where I go, wow, wow, I don't.
I'm so surprised by what you just said. And last
night on the podcast, we do a podcast every day.
You can go back and listen to our show and
we do a little intro, a little private podcast introduction,
(09:49):
and we were recording the introduction to the podcast, and
you said this, which I'm still thinking about to this minute.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I got two friends that are genuinely afraid of wrist.
Do you have any body parts that you just can't
deal with?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Me afraid of?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Or just like touching rests, putting your hands over rest
they just freak cars? You have?
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Wait, you know not one, but two people that are afraid.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Of resk two of my really good friends, Gina and Maxwell.
Both of them, Yeah, they hate wrists.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
It really wasn't the respect of the response I was expecting.
I came to the table with that thinking that was
just going to be a common phobia.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I think that's so weird, don't you.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
No, I think of any body parts I understand because
that part of the arm is exposed, it's then it's vulnerable.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
You can see the veins, And I get it.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I get why, Like they just they'll squirm anytime they
see it being touched. But we're okay with having a rest, Yeah,
they're okay with that. It's just when you make a
real effort to like go across the rest or touch
the rest, or squeeze the rest.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
I think it's a weird phobia. And I think it's
weird that you know two secret people that have the
same focus and.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
They're two of my really good friends.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Were were you attracting into a lie?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I thought this was common grant I. I mean, it's
not a full blown phobia. But this is one thing
that freaks me out, and that is the texture of
a marshmallow. Oh okay, you know the feeling, the visceral
feeling you get from like nails going down to chalkboard
like that with you're sort of like here's on your
(11:22):
backstand up. That's what I get from the feeling of
a marshmallow. Am I alone?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I beat You're not. It's weird, but it's not. It's
not super crazy. Mine is and I don't even know
if this is that weird. I'm sure lots of people
have this, but I hate rubber bands being pointed at me.
So if people go like this with a rubber band,
Oh my god, and Ryan, my husband knows it, and
my god, does he take advantage of it.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
It's so so glad that, in fact, now that it is,
that is really good to know.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Thank you for me welcome.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Oh wait, one hundred hairs.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I thought we could have not the phones this afternoon
or text all for eight seven? Do you have a
strange phobia and a rational phobia something that people are like, what,
why are you scared of that?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
We're not talking. I don't want your rats or your
mice or your that's all.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
That's all pretty common. Something a little strange that you're
afraid of. Give us a call right now. Oh wait,
one hundred the hat so you can tax four for
eight seven. We've got hahl peaks about just to.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
Give away Jay the podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Talking strange phobias. Is there something you're afraid of that
is a little out the gate.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You have two friends and you revealed this on the
podcast last night that are afraid of wrists, which I
just think is such a weird phobia to have.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I was really hoping to get solidarity on the text machine,
but there have been no follow up messages with people saying,
oh my god, I've got a.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Rest so many other phobias. I'm going to read a
couple of quick texts. Yeah, someone who has a phobia
for food that's been reheated, like in the miment.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Oh, I get that. I actually get there.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
There's something achy about it after it's got cold, and
then you hate it up again.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
This person, apparently the one that has the phobia gets
switty palms and.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I can't handle what an icebox stacks.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I've got a friend like this as well. On my
tongue or even the feeling of holding it. I have
to keep the wrap around it. At least got of
the phones the hat. Hello, Emily, good afternoon, Good afternoon.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
What's your phobia?
Speaker 8 (13:20):
I can't wear any of my own clothing if someone
else has worn it.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
What.
Speaker 8 (13:27):
Wow, somebody puts my shoes on, I feel creepy and
yucky and I can never wear them again.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
What if they put on your jumper and then washed it?
Is it just the Yeah? Does the washing kind of erase.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
The so jumpers are probably hit or miss, depends on
what they're doing while they're wearing my jersey.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Do you know what it is about it that freaks
you out so much?
Speaker 8 (13:54):
Someone that think maybe it's like there the skin concept?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Oh yeah, and like you thinking about how much skinny shared.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Yeah, but I will.
Speaker 8 (14:04):
Very quickly put on somebody else's shoes to run out
to the woodshed. But do that to mine? I can't really.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Or no judgment things.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
That's the thing about phobia is they often are irrational,
and we know are irrational.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Yeah, we've got to help it actually coming your way.
Let's got to Haley on hats high, Hailey, what's your fear?
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Okay, speaking of irrational, I'm scared of the roof falling
in on me when I have acupuncture needles And.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Wow, do you feel like a dream that like prompted.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
This or why no experience in this matter? Yeah, I'm
just and as a consequence, I don't have acupuncture.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
You would you would never get it? No, what if
you were out, could you do like an walking could.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
You feel like a walking acupuncture sea shirt?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Will you make sure the acupuncture is like takes the
table outside and you do it in the park or something,
because I'm.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Also scared that maybe there'll be a fire alarm.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh ok thing, Oh you're missing out is so good?
Ales go to Rachel. Hats high, Rach, what's your rational phobia?
Speaker 9 (15:21):
My fibera is you're.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
Gonna think it's weird.
Speaker 10 (15:23):
Okay, don't laugh. Do we want because when you're in
I can't go on a car wash because I think,
you know the arm thing that comes up and it
lifts up in front of the car with the brushes
and itt on. I think it's not going to lift
up and come into the wood screen and cut me.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
For some reason.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Rachel, Actually, I don't know if I should tell your
experience that happened to me in the car wash.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Do you want to hear it?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Yep? Okay.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
So when I was young and my grandmother and I
went into the BP car wash on Fenalt and Roade
and christ Church. I vividly remember it, and we'd forgotten
to shut the boot.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I think we're in like a kind of Sedani kind of.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Car, like, well, you've got the boot that pops up,
and so we hadn't shut up properly, and we go
through the car wash and then the boot smashes through
the back window and glass went all through the car.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Oh no, great, I shouldn't have told you that. I
shouldn't have told you that.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But like there was a one off and we were
all good and it wasn't. The big n arms stayed
well away from us.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Scarred poor Rachel.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
No one got hurt rage And it was years ago.
They've upgraded the technology so much stopped.
Speaker 8 (16:29):
For some reason.
Speaker 10 (16:30):
I sort of get that feeling, like you know in
Final Destination movies.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
That's sort of won't happen to you, Rachel. But I understand. Hey,
no judgment on the show. Thank you so much for calling.
We've got how Pizza vout?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
You coming? You're well?
Speaker 6 (16:43):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
The podcast that the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody
comes together.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
It's the People's Poll.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
At that time of the day where we throw out
a topic to you and you weigh in on the
text machine.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Today and inspired by true events.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Yes, there has been a table upstairs in our building
which for three days now has had three dollars in
coins just sitting on the table and.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Silver or gold gold, Ye, the good stuff.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yeah, and so a bunch of our colleagues in the
in the hits team have been wondering it's there. It's
been there for three days, on the same table. Clearly
no one's claimed it. Is it fear game to take
that money and claim it for yourself.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
No, it's a work environment.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Someone might be away for a few days and maybe
they've been waiting and maybe that is money allocated for
their little treat in the afternoon, and they've gone away.
They come back and they're like, hang on, who has
literally stolen my money?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
If you've gone away, it's on a communal table. It's
not on someone's desk. It's a communal table. And if
you've gone away for three days, there's no way you've
either forgotten about the money or there's no way you're
coming back and expecting the three dollars to still be there.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Okay, I hear you, But I feel like in a
work environment, I don't know what if the money, what
if the money was what if the money was out
in the eight trim here just on the floor outside the.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Left, that's different.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I think if you find a dollar on the floor,
I don't know, it's just the old skoom wine set
of like, oh I'm.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Lucky today, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Whereas if I find it in a work office on
a table, it's not like I've just stumbled upon it.
It's like I've kind of gone out to seek it.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
I don't know. Is it a weird It's not weird
at all. It's not weird at all. I totally know
where you're coming from. But do you also get how? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Yeah I do.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Where do you actually draw the lineen? Is that okay
to take the money? And when's it full blown stealer?
Speaker 2 (18:45):
So I guess the people's pole question today is is
it okay, yeah, for someone to take the money that's
been sitting on the table for three days?
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Okay? Takes through now four for eight seven.
Speaker 6 (18:57):
The podcast.
Speaker 11 (19:00):
Heads the People's Poll, the People's Poll. Everybody comes together,
it's the People's Poll.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Okay, Well, this is blown up the machine.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
So someone in our office found saw three dollars sitting
on a communal table in the office and it had
sat there for three days. So the question is is
it okay to take the three dollars it's been there
for three days? Or do you just leave it?
Speaker 3 (19:23):
This is so many good texts.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Maybe the clean has found it on the floor and
put it on the table, so it's like finding on
the floor money. Really it's anybody's Someone else said it
depends how much. If it's least than five bucks, fine
is keepers. But if it's say twenty, I would leave it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Lots of people on the moral high ground saying absolutely not.
If it isn't yours, leave it alone.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
No, it is theft.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, it's still a theft. Is per the crimes.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
As someone also said, No, it's an employer's trick to
gauge honesty.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Of stuff, which as a bad point.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
The other one A lot of people said, do it,
but use the money communally, so like pecket of biscuits
or back of lollies. And I do quite like that.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
I would say that's the best solution, possibly.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Directly anyway, another day of the people's politics so much
we're texting in four four eight.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Seven the podcast.
Speaker 12 (20:19):
Are You.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
A Nurse?
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Is what we're after this week.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
This is our occupation stereotyping game, which we have quite
a bit of fun with every week you call us up,
oh waite hundred the hats and yes, this week we're
after a nurse.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Whether you are or not, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
It's your job to convince us though that you are
a nurse. And this is where the beauty comes in.
Some people were convincing. We were sure that guy was
a teacher. I think sure.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
The other week we had three people convince us off
cops and none of them were of.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Them right, but they were so convincing.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Or at least got a Donna first up and Nelson, Donna,
you're a nurse?
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yes? Yes, okay, there was.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
That was good from you page, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I've got to follow up question though, And my follow
up question Donna is when was your last chefteen?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
You haven't been a nurse for a while, for a while,
but you were a nurse.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You So, okay, lot, I think Donna's no, I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Think she's a nurse. I think she got stomped. Maybe
she was a nurse many years ago. But Donna, are
you a nurse?
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I am actually a nurse?
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Oh no?
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Why did you stud me? Were you just trying to
stump me?
Speaker 8 (21:52):
I still have my practicing certificate, but now I don't
practice so much?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Right, Okay, all right, okay, So that's a zero from
one for us all right, that's true.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
That was true.
Speaker 3 (22:06):

Speaker 3 (22:24):

Speaker 2 (22:26):
Maybe I wouldn't know. I'm not a nurse.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Okay. Are we allowed to back up one more?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
And then?
Speaker 3 (22:33):

Speaker 5 (22:39):
Actually, I can.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
See in this you tell the people.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
I don't know why I've got this stereotype of making
that nurses have solid it's kind of solid.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Amanda's a nurse?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Ye are you a news?
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:04):

Speaker 1 (23:18):
Okay, I'm going to crack into it with a slightly
hard question. I'm going to say, Manete, you should know this.
What's an average resting heart?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Right?
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Okay, we don't need a follow up.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
You're definitely not a nurse, are you?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I have that one hundred and sixty is like you
need you've just done a massive exercise class.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh she didn't even come in with the confidence like
you could just tell she knew you were all right.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
So there was two out of three.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
If you've got any ideas for what occupations we should
do next week, text through.
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Now four four eight the podcast.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
At a freaking moment last night, guys, I was going
into the toilet. Now, let me paint the picture of
a rather unique bathroom that we have at our heart.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I love your bathrooms.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
There's many quirks and kinks to our house. And in
our bathroom, you have to walk up these stairs to
what we call like a throne. It is it is,
and then under the stairs, it's like there's a bunker.
So if the apocalypse would ever occur, you could just
go under there, and there's heaps of food. You know,
if there was like a storm, you could probably be
(24:48):
protected under there. You know, there's many many purposes for
the for the room under the stairs. Anyway, I was
walking up the stairs and I came across. I cad
you not the largest spider that I have ever witnessed
in New Zealand. I did live in Australia for a while,
and I think I saw a Huntsman which was huge.
(25:10):
This was so big, like if I put my hands
up like this to you, it was probably a goode
at least five six centimeters in diameter. Wow, like giant.
And then so I panicked and I called my husband
and I go, bajee bay ye, get here now, and
he got off the couch not fast enough. By the
time he arrived, the spider had like gone down the
(25:34):
stairs walk and so it just completely just disappeared. And
he's like, maybe sure you saw this, and I'm like, no.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
I did.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
It was honestly the biggest spider I've ever seen. And
now it was one of those moments that I just
wish I'd taken a photo.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
And second, are you now seeking gissing yourself.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Like, I'm no, I know it was huge, but I
know that I sound a little bit because it sounds
bigger than like one that you know you'd usually probably see.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Hearing THEILM totally and you don't have you don't have
evidence of it.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I don't have evidence, and it's I actually had a
friend once who was We were in Vegas together at
like the iHeartRadio Festival, and he just popped off to
go to the toilet and he came back and he's like, guys,
you won't believe I saw on the way to the loan.
We're like, who, And you know the really well known
TV host James Corden. He's like, I saw James Cardham.
We chatted and everything. We're like, did you get a photo?
And he was like no, and so we will it
(26:30):
didn't happen to it one of those moments where.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
You're like, pecky, or it didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yes, I get it, And it's one of those things
where your friends go, I don't know if I believe you,
because I can't. I don't have evidence that this happened.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
But that's honestly the freaking biggest spider that I've seen
on our shores in New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
It was streaking huge.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh eight hundred of hats. I thought we could have
some fun this afternoon. What incredible thing happened to you?
Or maybe it was maybe it wasn't like amazing, but
some thing wild happened to you. But people don't believe
you because you didn't take a photo or a video
at the time, so you don't actually have any evidence
of this incredible story. I'll wait one hundred of hats
(27:13):
you can text four four eight seven. Oh, we've got
some help peaks of archers to give away. I'm sure
we can get better stories than my spot. I know
my spider worm is good.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I just don't believe it was.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I wait under the hats text four for eight seven.
What amazing thing happened to you? But people don't believe
you because you didn't take a photo. Will take your
calls me.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
We're asking the question, what happened to you? But no
one believes it because you didn't get a photo or
a video.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
I was in London and I sat down at it
outside the long table like a communal table, to have
my breakfast, and I realized I was sitting right next
to Sam Smith or what of it I was, But
I never took a photo of it, and people.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
I don't believe it.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
No, I didn't want to interrupt his breakfast, but we
sat next to each other at a KFA in London.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Oh, I hand you the hats is that you can
join the show? Or takes four for eight seven? Herman
joining us? Herman, what happened to you that no one
believes because you didn't take a photo?
Speaker 9 (28:21):
So this was at a time when cell phone cameras
took shitty images, right, Yeah, But I was on a
flight and I was sat next to a rather attractive lady.
We struck up a conversation, and it was a long flight.
(28:43):
I couldn't shake that somehow I'd seen her somewhere.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Sure, And then.
Speaker 9 (28:48):
When we landed at our destination, you know, rather sheepishly,
I asked, I said, I'm so sorry, but you look
awfully familiar. May I ask you what your name is?
And she shook my hand very politely, and you said Hi,
I'm schmitta sen and who it turns out was a
former Miss Universe. And I sat next to her on
a flight and I was.
Speaker 14 (29:08):
Spoken with, Oh, I'm.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
She's a very attractive woman.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
You do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
You played at Colhuly So I was.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
I was asleep and probably snoring for that.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Then oh, he's got a Peter on the high people?
What happened to you? But no one believes because you
didn't get a photo.
Speaker 7 (29:36):
Well, I was over in New York for work, remember,
staying in the Saint Regious Hotel, and that night we
were going to offency dress like a Great Gatsby sort
of things. So they gave us costumes and fake mustaches
and stuff like that, and I'm already I've already gone
on the Stars. So I put on this fake stache
over the top of it, went on the left to
go down to the lobby and meet everybody else. And
(29:56):
there was repaying out in the lift and and some
other guy, and they were like looking at me, going
look at this cooky guy at the same region's hotel
with a fake the stars dressed up and red clothes,
and you feel them moved to one side of the lift.
I had to I had to explain why I was
wearing this fake mustache, and I said, I'm going off
to this this thing sort of thing. But I didn't
(30:18):
want to ask for a selfie because you're in a
lip and they looked like I was crazy. When we
got to the ground floor and the doors open and
the whole lobby was full of people just dressed like me,
because we're all going fussing over to this event, and
you could see them go, ah, this guy is not crazy.
(30:39):
They slipped out through the back like a couple of
people saw them. But none of my friends in New
Zealand they tell people about They go, no, mate, no
it didn't happen exactly.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Oh, thank you so much for your cold page. We're
going to help its have actually coming away.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
There were a lot of famous people in the text
as well. Someone said, I mean Kanate in the airport
and fourteen US and for a photo, but he said no,
which is fair because no one believes me now that
I met Kanye West.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Yeah, that's a big one. Surely you do a sneaky
little photo.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
The podcast.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
It's very very handy, but it is an interesting thing
selling things online, you know, like on trade me or Facebook,
Marketplace or wherever you go to sell your weares and
your goods. There's often a really interesting story that goes
with it because it is a funny thing, like inviting
someone around your house to pick up something that was
(31:37):
previously owned by you that you've now given away to someone.
There's lots of layers to it.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
To this day, the best purchase I've made through Facebook
marketplace was a bookshelf in the shape of a canoe,
and it actually was a canoe that was rescued from
the Indonesian tsunami years ago. And it's amazing and I
got it for such a steal.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Do you still have it?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 13 (32:03):
I do so.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
It's a bit of a hazard.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Actually I need to kind of tie it to the
wall because my toddler climbs everywhere.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
I do really need.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Faster than But it's amazing, and it was like one
hundred and fifty bucks we had usually spend probably a
lot more. No, it is really cool, Oh, senior photo
as efact like no one else would have this, and
it's got such a great story to it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
My question is, are you sure they weren't a fake story? No?
Speaker 1 (32:27):
I actually the people seemed really genuine. I got it
from Wellington. Everything seemed pretty above board. Now you're making
me question myself.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Well, it just like a welling if someone in Wellington
owning a canoe that I think.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
That lived over there sure years ago. Okay, oh senior packet,
I leave pretty impressive.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
I leave the story, believe the story. But something happened
to produce a sierra today, which we all kind of
laughed at when she told us, because it is kind
of weird what happened with your Facebook marketplace story today?
Speaker 13 (32:58):
Okay, so I was selling some knive block and some
knives along with the knife blocks.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Yes, which, first of all.
Speaker 13 (33:04):
Is it, like, is it legal to sell knives on Facebook?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I did a quick Google and I think you're fine.
I think you are fine.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
It does feel very dicey, though, doesn't it.
Speaker 13 (33:13):
Yes, And so this I suggested to meet at my
house or in the CBD in Auckland where we work.
Obviously it's a lot easier for people to get into
central Auckland. And they were like, yeah, CBD, you know,
twelve o'clock. I was like, okay, col I gave the
address of this workplace just to feel safe.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Yeah, idea.
Speaker 13 (33:31):
They were like here and I was like okay. So
I went out onto the street. I had like a
red warehouse bag with the knife blocks and then the
knives I wrapped like six times and like glad rap
sure tea towel like I was so near about hanging
it over to someone on the street. Then I couldn't
find them. And for twenty minutes we're messaging back and forth,
(33:52):
going here and I was like we yeah, I've got
a red bag, and they were like outside and I
was like looking around the street and then I was like, wait,
is this a trap?
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Oh?
Speaker 13 (34:06):
Then I found them and it just they just there
was a bit of a scotcha.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
But for twenty minutes you were the weirdo standing out
on the street with a bunch of knives.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
At least they were wrapped up multiple doses that would
have locked.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Real You just hand vibes over and like it would
scissor hands of just a bunch of knives in your hands,
just waving them around the streets. Where are you.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Ten dollars for me?
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Lead's open the phone, let's talk marketplace messhaps. I remember
I made a purchase years ago and like it looked
too good to be true.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
It was this ip at wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Anyway, it got totally done and they weren't legit and
I got scammed, and luckily because it was paid through PayPal,
I got them money refunded.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
But I'd say so.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Common, I'd say, so many weird things have happened on
market place or trade me give us a go eight
hundred so you can stay in on on this. What
was your marketplace, miss hap.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
Mary and PJ.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Mary and PJ the podcast The head Shocking Marketplace mishaps
what happened when you try to sell or buy something online?
You can join the show and we've got some goodies
for you. Let's go to the phones. Kumar is joining us,
Hi Koma.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Hello, how are you good?
Speaker 7 (35:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 14 (35:28):
I mean there was a small storage cabinet which we
had myself and wife actually restore it. My wife's actually
artistically painted it, handpainted it and made it really look beautiful.
But this is to move to the new house. We
can actually hold on to it. So we put it
on the marketplace and there's a lot of inquiries and
(35:49):
this couple came over all good and they came over,
took it and they were happy with it, and they
mean asked to pay cat like okay, it's the bank things,
It's okay, all good. They quickly showed me the screenshot
of the I was like, yeah, all good. Fine, that
was being a week and soatorically take a couple of
days arrived in my bank card come on day didn't
(36:11):
so contacting bag had no reply.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Oh the buggers is the problem with the regulation is it? Like?
Speaker 3 (36:18):
What is the regulation? When it comes to marketplace.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Well, I guess it's just a it's up to you.
It's an open it's an open slather. So if they
say if you ask them to pay cash and they
say they'll do a bank transfer like they did with
k and then they never trust Yeah, you either trust
them or you don't.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Someone see my husband brought a miniature Highland car Highland
Highland Highland car off marketplace, brought the photos of the
car he put just time to show the kids. They
got super excited. They called it food and end. He
arranged with the person to go pick it up the
next day. It all contact went quiet and then went
back to the forest Facebook post read in the comments
it was actually a scam. Never got his seven fifty back. However,
he did find a miniature cow from a local lady
(36:58):
that he went and viewed first.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
And the kids have now called it food and.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Okay, so happy ending. Just seven hundred and fifty bucks
out of pot.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
A couple of comments here on facebook page. You can
find us on the Hit Drive with MADYMPJ. Someoney said
I bought a bookcase off marketplace, got mum to babysit well,
Habby and I went to collect it, borrowed a car
so that it would fit. Turned up it was a
kid's sized book. Place could lift the whole thing with
one hand.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I feel like I get sucked into that stuff online,
like often the size. I don't always look at the measurement.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
But even if I even if I look at the measurements,
I'm so terrible with understanding measurements that I wouldn't make
any sense to me.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
I need a big object to give it context, to
know exactly what we're working with. Oh Julian's called through
oh Wite hundred the hats with a bit of a warning.
Apparently he's a bit of a scam going around a
marketplace at the moment.
Speaker 12 (37:51):
Julian, Yeah, that's the one. I don't know if you
guys have heard of this, but I was selling something
on marketplace seven and fifty dollars. Someone comes along says,
I'm happy to pay that, no problem, so you give
them your bank account. Meanwhile, the scammer tries to sell
something themselves way too good to be true, So they
get a third person along who actually pays the money
(38:14):
and they put it into my bank account. So they
sold something for fifteen hundred dollars. The next thing, there's
fifteen hundred dollars in my bank account. I said, oh, what,
she made a mistake. They're like, cool, can you pay
the seven to fifty back into this account? As soon
as you paid the seven fifty, you never hear from
them again, don't need them or nothing.
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
So is there any way that you can tell that
the item that's been listed as a scale? Is there
any kind of like giveaway and the text or the
way they sell it.
Speaker 12 (38:44):
Probably not look like a pretty legit profile and stuff,
But them just vanished though.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
That's key where I.
Speaker 12 (38:53):
Sort of slipped up like this, This is when they like
put it into this other account, it should have just
gone back into the original one to them.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Yeah yeah, oh there's a good uh.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
It's a good little heads up from Mugulian. Thanks so
much for that.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Thanks to the pace. Someone said I was selling a
phone on Marketplace. Someone said they were interested, but could
I drop it off because they were drunk. It was
ten am on a Tuesday morning. Oh wow, well, no judgment.
