Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hits Drive with Medi and PJ thanks to chimis
Wee House the real hearse of fragrances. Oh no, I've
done it again.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
You've put your put what have you put in your mouth?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Milk chocy chunk. Artisan cookie.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Makes me feel Yeah, you love an artisan.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
It makes me feel as guilty when it's artisan.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Make you think there's least calories than an artisan cook.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
There's absolutely not, But they made me feel like there's
you know, fine quality ingredients.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
M m.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
They do look good, you know. Me and a chocolate
chip cookie.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Oh, you'd be a sucker for these ones. Yeah, you'd
eat them right up. All right. So I want to
proper update from the weekend. You had your cocktail nut
on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
So yeah, So we decided to do this fun little
thing with two of our favorite people, this other couple
who I went to university with.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
One of them works at another radio station.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
We were talking about that, but I've known them for
such a long time. In fact, in fact, I so
we were living together when they became a couple because
they were all friends from university days.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Was it awkward when they first started getting together?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Nah? It was kind of obvious, right, It was almost
one of those things where everyone was like, ah, like
finally they've que got together and then they've been together
ever since. So've they been happily ever after, happily ever
after with three kids. And so they came around on
Saturday night and we did this little cocktail thing where
so everyone had to make each of us had to
(01:43):
make a cocktail. So it was me and my husband
and these two.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Where did you go?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I went like a gin raspberry gin cocktail.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Or like a fizz it was.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It was like a fizz yeah, yeah, yeah. And so
we'd make the cocktail, then we'd all drink it, and
then the other three people who hadn't made the cocktail
would then do a rating like it was almost like
m k R cocktail tail rule.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
God, I think you can say something else when they
write the rating, do they write it anonymously like so
no one else can see.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
We decided that, like we the other three would just
confer and would put down.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The same So just one one.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
So it was on presentation, on taste, and on complexity
with a three three category.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
You didn't lend to you by the way that you're
talking about it.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
He did not take the victory here's what I will say.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Here we go. Whenever he says that, you know he's
on the defense.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I think going first it puts you at a real
disadvantage because does it though, Yes, because you're never going
to get a super high rating because people always go, well,
let's wait and see what comes. You know, I don't
want to. I don't want to made it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So you try them all and then give them a
rating right at the year.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
We should have done that. Absolutely, we should have done
that because.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
At least take notes on them as you go through
and then finish up with the radar.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Because when I went first, which I did, they're never
going to go, oh, we'll give this an eight or
a nine, because they'll go, well, I don't want to
score it that high in case, no, what if it's
not like what if something else?
Speaker 1 (03:29):
What was your rating?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
So I got Actually I don't even see my final
what I'm trying to remember what the final school was.
There was only point five difference between me and seecond place.
I got third. Oh yeah, out of four out of four.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Or maybe what one? Which what was this kind of
cocktail that won?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Bloody Ryan?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
It makes it so much better.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
He did a whiskey sour and he had had.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
A I love whisky salos. Did he put Eagan out?
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Yeah? And he had a couple of tricks up his
sleeve because he had recently cleaned our pantry and he
remembered that we got sent this cocktail making kit from
like a pr company a while back, right, Yes, And
there was a packet in the pantry that had garnishes
in it that I had completely forgotten about. So then
(04:26):
all of a sudden he could fancify his cocktail.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I mean, that's just being smart, utilizing and being resourceful.
I wouldn't say that's, you know, you being disadvantaged. That's
just him being on the ball, really, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yes, Yes, except he had like held on to it
until he knew that we Yeah, so I couldn't do
anything about it.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'd say kudos to Ryan. I think he was just
being the most resourceful in the moment.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Okay, well, I'm taking it on the chin because you know,
you know me, I'm a good loser.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Let me, you're never doing in cocktail again, never.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Again, or if we do it, I'm just not going.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
For yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you'll choose your placing wisely.
Next time. Hey, look, we have a really fun shop
coming up for a Monday. Usually Monday is gonn be
a bit sluggish. But I really enjoyed today's show. It
was your favorite part? Was your favorite part?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What did I love? I've got I had a really
funny story to tell you about a friend of a
friend who came up with a lie to pull out
of a date.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, that was brilliant.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I hope that the person they lined to wasn't the
same I've someone text in about that.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Actually, yeah, is there any chance they were?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I mean, who knows? Who knows?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
You always forget that people are actually listening. There's someone
on the other end. I also shared a moment where
bj nearly had a hero moment yesterday and there was
a very funny twist at the end.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
It's just so good. Plus we had to talk about
that massive Loto when and we talked to someone from
Lotto about how momentous that when was.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
All of that and more coming up on the podcast.
Enjoy everybody the podcast and confession time. I think I've
committed another crime. Oh God, at the cafe.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Not the water glass.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
No, not the water class.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know where to put the water glass? Down, don't you.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I know, yes, you take it back to a lovely
person who works established. Man.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
You don't put it with the clean cuts.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
No, or you leave it on a table and then
they can clear it.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
So it's.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
They still need to make it better.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
We've moved on.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Okay, my lattest think that I've done. This is like
cafe cafe crime etiquette. So I needed coffee before the show,
and it's always my little, my little caffeine fixed time
between sort of two to theorty?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
How many?
Speaker 4 (07:01):
How many?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
How many coffees are you rock in these days?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
One to doe?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, I'm coming back. I'm only doing I'm doing to
a day.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I am dabbling in the March a march world, which
they say gives like ten times. The poignancy of caffeine
is like a standard green tea, but like you jush
it up with a bit of milk. It's really love anyway.
So but I did go and get my real caffeine.
I got my real hirt, and I was guzzling down
some food at the same time as I walked in
(07:32):
to sit establishment. And the food that I was eating
wasn't from that cafe, right, And I was trying to
eat it as quick as possible, and then I was like,
I'm just gonna make myself sick.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I'll just hold on.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
To the wrap as I walk it. I've got like
three corners of a wrap with lots of good vegetables
and filling in it, just sitting in my hand as
I walked through, and I asked for the coffee. Do
you think this is rude behavior?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I've been there before where I've bought something from another
like a coffee shop, or maybe I've like I've gotten
a takeaway coffee, but then I've wanted food from a
different establishment that also does coffee. So I've already walked
in with a coffee in hand and ordered food from
that place.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Do you feel bad right? I feel like I almost
said to overcompensate and get like something else food.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Do you know what it's like? It's like walking into
New World with contusable bag.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yes, and you feel like.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You feel you do. But I think as long as
you're buying something from that establishment, look, is it perfect solution? No?
But I think you I think you're covered under the
rules of the fact that you were actually spending money.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
To walk in with my Simi Asian rap and I
looked around and then I didn't get anything. I walked
up that would be straight up road, but because I
was spending money with the business, it was all good.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I do think the issue would have been if you
had left your wrapper from the food at the cafe.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
You who do you think? I am?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Mady and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
I think it's really important in your relationship or any
relationship you have with anyone. Self awareness. It's a really
great tools you walk through life owning your stuff ups
and your flaws.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Oh yeah, I have to regularly do that, usually when
I've lost my call at something that I didn't need
to lose my call over.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, sometimes you just have to fall on your sword
and go you know what, I could have been better
at that moment. Something doing on me over the weekend,
and I realized what one of my toxic traits are
around the house. It's pretty low level to us, but
I realized that I get into quite a hyperfixation over
things being changed around the house, like, Oh, I'll start
(09:57):
dreaming about something being done be like, oh, I think
we really need to do this, and I always have
to ask him to do it. Because physically he can
do all the di I one stuff I cannot.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
But you've got the you've got the creative brain to imagine.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, So I'll come up with the idea. This is
the toxic tray to him. I'll come up with the idea,
and he'll go to a lot of effort to implement
said change, and then time will roll around and I
realize I don't like it anymore.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Oh my god, I would that would wind me up.
That would wind me up.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Something chronic example being there's a bookshelf. It's a very
it's just like one shelf that. A while back, I
was like, oh, we should put that up in the
lounge and it just looked like quite a cute feature piece.
Now it annoys me more than anything, and I'm like,
it is so hideous. It's just closing off the room.
(10:54):
There's no expansion. I feel like it would look so
much better with some nice art there, But I don't
have the courage to go and ask me to take
it down.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
How long did it take him to get that sorted?
How much time did he spend on to me fear
he she.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Had to get his friend Josh's so not only was
he involved his friend Joshua. So if we take it down,
it's more than just I mean, he probably could just
get the old what do you call it, the old
handgun on the old screwed.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
The hand gun?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
What do you do to get the nails out? The retractor?
What Matt Medie helped me out here?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Why are you asking? Why do you think I'm going
to know the actual anyway?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
The tool that you use to take the nails out?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Any right?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So now I'm like, I can't because it also we've
created like permanent holes in the wall, so we're gonna
have to paint over it to cover what the holes.
We're gonna no, because then the art will be a submitricle.
It's just gonna look stupid. And then I realized it's
one of my silly traits. I don't think through my
wishes properly because then I just retract act and I'm like, no,
(12:00):
we need to change them. Do you have a toxic trait?
Many that you could bring to the table?
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Where do I start? Okay? Just one?
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Just one to start.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
The concern is if you message my husband right now
said what do you think have a list of at
least twenty and then one of my toxic traits which
would come in come into effect, which was which would
be overreacting to a simple situation.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Okay, one go and by all means join in on
the phone right now. Oh eight hundred the Hats. We're
all about honesty and self awareness and if we get
you on the air, we'll hook you up with the
helpeaps about you.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Your low level toxic trait mine is leaving people on
scene and not replying to the Oh.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
You don't do that. I'm the only person that receives that.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Everyone thinks I'm mad at them because I haven't replied
to their messages. It's just me. I'm useless.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Many the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
And we want your confessions on eight hundred the Hurts.
What is your toxic trait? I had this sort of
realization over the weekend that one of mine is asking
my husband to make changes around the home, and I'll
be so passionate about it. I'll be like, oh my god,
it just looks so nice and we did this. He'll
finally do it, and then months down the track, I'll
be like, mm I don't really like it anymore. Change back.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
That must infuriate him so much.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah, I've got to find the way to break the
news to him so he doesn't lose it.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Maybe I'll do it on my birthday, Yes, yes, do
it tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Then turt me there exactly A Lea's go to Francis.
Kid A, Francis, how are you hi?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Gang?
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Good?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
All right?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Be honest? Open up? What's your toxic trait?
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I am notorious amongst friends and family for making plans
and then having to cancel them because I.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Didn't check the diary. And I'm double bossed. I don't
have a baby.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I'm so bad at this as well. Francis, did I
tell you that I went to I told my best
friend that I was going to go and run the
Danied and Half Marathon, and I told her the date
and she goes, isn't it the date of my hens do?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Oh my god? What Francis? Is it just because you
don't pop it down? You know last they got three kids? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (14:18):
Yeah, that's spring challenge because of that same reason.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Hey, Francis, if I'm not toxic, you're not toxic.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
You're off the hook.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
You're off the hook.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Let's go to a non in Wellington. Anon. What is
your toxic trade?
Speaker 7 (14:32):
My toxic traits that I believe that everyone's in love
with me, and I'm delusional enough to wholeheartedly believe.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Are we talking about pursuing lovers or just everything?
Speaker 7 (14:43):
Just every everyone. I just think that everyone that I
talked with actually sup through that. I also think that
I'm going to run it into a famous person. I'm
going to fall in love with me.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I thought that I think we've all had that delusion.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
We all and like we just click, we'd get along
di caprio. I mean, I may not be under twenty five,
and I think you just love me exactly. That's a
healthy delusion to have. I reckon, Yeah, exactly, exactly exactly.
Your own it, your own your toxic traits, and on.
Thank you for coming to the table. We're gonna hook
(15:19):
you up with the hell peaks about you. All right,
have a great week.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Someone else's texting my toxic trait. Online shopping and I
need to spend an extra three dollars to get free shipping,
and then spending an extra fifty dollars on top of
that to get the free shipping.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Happens to the best of us.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
The podcast.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
News for Losho over the weekend are the winner of
the forty four million bubble prize has come forward. A
lot of in z had confirmed today that the Aucklander
had got in touch to claim the win. The prize
is the largest lot of win in inzed history. So
we want to actually get someone on from Lotto to
join us this afternoon to hash this out a little
(16:02):
bit more. Lucy joins us. Now, Hi, Locy, big day
for you.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Guys, Cyota, It sure.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Is sure is how exciting is this for you guys?
Because this is a pretty momentous win, this one, it.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Is, And honestly, this is the most exciting part of
our jobs.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
We just love this part.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
So you get to sit down with someone within sometimes
hours of them finding out they've won the biggest prize
and a lot of New Zealand's history. It's life changing stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
What are those initial reactions that you get when you
sit down with these people, you know? Is that disbelief?
Is that shock? Is it just howling with crying? Like
what a people don't I look all.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Of the above. This belief is the most common one.
They just say to us, just can't believe it's not
a dream, Like is it real?
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Yeah, They often say it's not till they come to
a lot of HQ and they sit down and talk
to us that it starts kind of dawning on them,
this is really happening. And then the next moment is
when they check their bank online and they.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
See all the hero Oh my god, can't even amazing.
This was a pretty strange way of winning, wasn't it,
in terms of the way that they chose their numbers.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Yeah, you know, it's not as unusual as you think, right,
And it's just that we don't always see it because
you know, it only comes up when they win. So
when we saw it on the night, we were pretty
sure this is what had happened, but we obviously couldn't
say until we knew for certain and they claimed their prize.
But people who packed their own numbers, obviously they have
their special numbers, but they don't want to miss out
(17:29):
on powerball, yes, so they just play those numbers and
then do all different power balls, and then sometimes they
end up hitting the jackpot quite literally.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
So they've obviously won the power ball and six hundred
and sixty six, six hundred and seventy dollars with the
Lotto First Division exactly.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
That's just a small change right.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
My good. Now, Lucy, I need to come clean about something,
because when I found out the ins and outs of
the story, it only dawn to me to day that
you can actually choose your own numbers.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Oh you didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
She didn't know that. I'm the amount of times I
feel like I shouldn't be shocked anymore, but I am.
And the things that PJ doesn't know, But this was one.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Sure, I'm not alone. I thought you just go and
you get your tack out and you doubt your hand.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
No, I have very lucky numbers that they play all
the time, right, lou.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Well three and seven of my lucky numbers. I'll just
do that every time I go.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Well, look, I'm sure you're not alone. And and there's
lots of people like me who are just too lazy
with their own numbers because it's a little bit more effort. Yes,
but yeah, no, there are there are some players who
they have their special numbers and they choose those some however,
they do them, and look, honestly, they're not luckier than
any other numbers. We do have to say that because
they just it's all random.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Okay, Because I was going to ask that question, do
you have better chances of winning if you pick your
own numbers as opposed to just giving them randomly drawn
for you. No, it's all the same, all the same.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know, with your buy online or in store, whether
you choose your whether the machine shows is for you,
it's all completely random, right.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Well, Lucy, do you have any advice for next sun
lot rolls around for anyone? Is there any tips of
wisdom or is it just go get a ticket, Just
go and get a ticket and be in it to
win it.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Yeah, honestly, my advice is just has fun. You know,
it's a small chance to win. It's really just a
bit of entertainment, bit of fun that are joining in
with the rest of New Zealand, and then sometimes you're lucky.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Well, lo, thanks so much for joining us. Big day
for you guys. Enjoy it and we really appreciate you
coming on.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Okay, So off the back of this, it got us
inspired to ask a question for this this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
The People's poll, The People's Poll. Everybody comes together, it's
the People's Poll. Because here's the thing. It wasn't me.
I need to tell you now, it wasn't me. That
one I'm not sure that won the forty.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Four I think you'd still rock up to work the
next day like nothing had happened.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
You think I'm a bigger person than I do, so
you later what degree the suckers? I'm out of here.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I don't I generally don't know what to do in
that situation.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Yeah, I guess it depends on how much you want.
Forty four million dollars is the kind of money where
you could feasibly just quit your job.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Well, let's hypothetically go with a few dead when over
five million dollars in lotto, would you quit your job
or would you go on with life as if nothing
had happened and just live life totally normally? What would
you do in that situation? Text four four eighty seven?
Would you quit? Or would you carry on?
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Manion PJ the podcast.
Speaker 8 (20:40):
That's the People's Poll, The People's Poll.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Everybody comes together, it's the People's Poll.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
All right, we are talking about the historic win that
happened with lotto over the weekend. Forty four million parble
prize was claimed. And then I'll ok about like six
hundred and sixty thousand dollars in first division, which raizy ridiculous.
So I wanted to ask the question to New Zealand today,
if you were to win lotter of five million dollars
or more, would you quit or carry on? Like nothing else?
Speaker 2 (21:09):
So many texts. Someone said quit, I'm out of here,
like on the next plane, I'll be living my best life.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
I wouldn't quit, but I'd ask to reduce my arms
to have more of a work life balance. Quest someone
face off the interest.
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Someone else said, now that I'm nearly sixty, I'd say
an active retirement will be on the cards. But my
LOTO when was just thirty eight dollars. So I'm stilling
my desk.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I keep trying, mate, keep trying. Someone said four.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Oh sorry, no you go there you go.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
No no, no, no, no, no no, you go four million
dollars and I'm gone. Baby. There's what someone else here.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I've calculated the results. It is fifty seven percent say
they would they would keep their jobs. That's stam still convincing. No,
like see you, I'm gone.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
So you want to Bud.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Finish Me Off.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
At the meantime, I lighthearted quote game where Maddy is
going to test my quote knowledge by reading the first
half of the quote, and I just have to finish
it off. It's that simple. I'm going to try and
get at least two out of three.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I love that you say it's that simple. It's never
that simple. Piece.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Well, the premise of the game is simple. The actually
execution is not so simple.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Look, bless you. It's not your area of expertise. You
often start really strong and then falter at the.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
But do we think it is anyone's real area of expertise? Like,
is anyone really that great at nailing your quote?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah? I think a lot of people are, because often
often that quotes that we use all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Okay, well, what have you got for me? Are these
common ones? Oh? No, I'm going you're setting me up
to faight.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yeah, but that's fun. At least it's fun for me. Okay,
So your first quote is this, A bad excuse is better.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Then doing nothing. No, hang on, A bad excuse is
better than a bad life. A bad excuse is better
than failing. Excuse is better than doing nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
You know you're on the right track even going there.
A bad excuse is better than none. Okay, So you're
on the right track.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
I'm going to so you give me like a soft
point there, I'll give.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
You a soft point.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Okay, thank you.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Your second quote is this. If you give a mouse
a cookie.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Spell all these quotes of like the same formula. You
give a mouse a cookie, it might run for cheese.
If you give a mouse of cookie, well, good luck,
you're gonna get tb some serious disease like sad again again.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
If you give a master cookie, then you'll.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Never see it again. If you give a master cookie,
then you can't expect to get it back. I hate,
I hate, I hate this one more.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Go Okay, if you give a master cookie.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You might be the one in the trap.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
And the best thing is because you can't see this
because obviously this is an audio media PJ. The look
of the light on Pj's face when she thinks she's nailed.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It, because it just dawns on me that there could
be some kind of meaning around that.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Is it something to do with the trap? Nothing to
do with that. If you give a master cookie, he'll
always ask for a glass of milk. One more, really quick,
let's get to it, Okay. If you must dance with
the devil.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Be prepared to sleep with the angel.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
No, and it sounds profound, it really does. Okay, say again,
if you must dance with the devil.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Then be ready to die in the dark.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I don't know what is anything made in case? Again?
Speaker 2 (25:15):
One more, if you must dance with the devil.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Be prepared to die with the tango.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
If you must dance to the devil, you might as
well know his favorite song.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Ye these they're too far lived to field.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, I'll easier. I'll go easier on you next.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Week, bring it back and live on next week.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I still think you won't nail it.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
I might peel ridditics. Any suggestions Bull for eight seven.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
MADDYG. Medi and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
That's sort of a funny moment, you said, known Medy.
So I've told you before how we live quite remotely
and we are towards sort of the end of our rows,
and often we people have issues on our row. For
whatever reason, they decided to come up our driveway and
seek how.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Which is fine if your husband's the terrible if you're
there alone, because what are you going to do?
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Thank you? Well, thank god my husband was home and
because we were like cooking dinner. We were both just
in the catch and getting ahold lot of stuff done
last night. And then I go, hang on, who's got
a red car? And he goes, oh, no, they'll come
me out the driveway and I go yeah, And so
they made their way up, and once again, a couple
steps out. I feel like this is like groundhog Day.
(26:30):
I've told you so many of these stories lately.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
They're always a random couple that you don't know. They
often addressed strangely. Where these people dress strangely, No, these were.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Dressed relatively normal. They pop out of the car sort
of like a maybe woman in her fifties and a
guy in his twenties. And I was like, what could
this be about on a Sunday night? What was going
on here? What are you thinking?
Speaker 2 (26:53):
My immediate reaction is always like Jehovah's witnesses or something
like that.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Be wrong. So BJ sort of came out. He goes, God,
know what's going on? And they go, look, there's a
car stuck up in the mud at the end of
the road. I don't suppose you've got a ute or
anything strong enough to help us get out. And BJ,
in that moment cure the hero, is it? He goes, you, bitch,
(27:22):
I got my my Zuzu, my d Max. I'll come
up the road. No worries guys, And they're like, do
you have a robe? And he goes, I can sort
this out. Is he is?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
He just sitting there waiting for these moments? Do you
think I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
His head growing that moment he was pouring like a cat,
like he'd been waiting to pounce on a moment like
this where he could step up and be the hero.
So we got in the car. We got Charlie had
two year old. We're like, come on, Charlie, we're going
on an avinger. Let's go and rescue this car. And
he's like, I just got to go down to the
farm or grab some rope. But maybe you should document this,
like take a video. We could just show like the
(27:56):
whole moment of us to save the car.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
So he's not a humble hero.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
So I start filming it and he's like and he's like,
all right, I just got to go get the rope,
and he goes and she'd gets it and then we
arrive at the scene and we see the car that
is stuck, but right in front of it. It's another
ut that has obviously beaten us. And then he goes,
(28:25):
you guys are right, and they go, oh, yeah, we've
got everything under control. This guy's actually.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
You have just awkwardly put your phone away as to
recoil the rope and then just drive off sheepishly.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
There for a while and he was like, do you reckon?
I should just and he started doubting the other committed it.
He started mouthing off about it being this cheap, like
some kind of ute that no one should have it.
I was like, babe, you're just jealous, all right because
he got the to the moment before you. And then
he goes, sure, you guys are okay. They're like, no, no, no,
we sawt it five minutes ago. You guys are good
(29:03):
to go. So we just like edge our way back
up the roads.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
The hero moment was stolen.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Stolen.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Maddy and PJ. Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Hey, I was catching up with some friends. He said
it was such a beautiful day and orphan. So a
group of us thought they're gonna have a little cheeky
and the sun.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
You know what the Australians do well. Sunday sessions. It's
not such a big thing here in New Had they
do celebrate.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Well, we gave it a we gave it a good
whack yesterday with some friends.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Little nudge.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yeah. And I was chatting to a maid of mine
and he told me this brilliant story about it someone
that I know not well, but I know him through
this guy. So this friend of a friend was chatting
to someone on a dating app. But the person that
they were chatting to lived in Northland and this guy
lives in Auckland, and so it was kind of one
(30:00):
of these things, where is it going to go anywhere?
Is it not going to go anywhere? And the guy,
the person in Northland said, look, why don't we just
this is going well, why don't I just come down
to Aukland and spend the night, you know, and we
can get to know each other.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh god, that because I'm anxiety, like, at least go
out to a public place and have some friends around.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Now it's a lot of pressure. And so the guy
in Auckland said, yeah, yeah, come down, come down and
we'll spend it like a Saturday night together and you
can stay and say this person from Northland drove down
to Auckland and arrived and almost immediately the guy in Auckland,
this friend of a friend, just realized it's not I'm
(30:42):
not vibing it. You know, like sometimes it can be
great over chair and everything's going well, and then they
turn up in person and you just think not for.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Me, because you do get the rose colored glasses when
you're talking online and you start imagining this person that's
not actually there, but you start thinking of all the
ways that they could be the best person in the world.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Usually, plus someone can have really good banter and good
chances texting or messaging.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
And no charisma in person want so charisma.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
And so this guy in Auckland just thought, I'm not
vibing this and I can't. I can't stomach like the
next twenty four hours this person. But he felt so
bad because they're driven all the way down from Northland, right, yes,
So he thought, what can I do to get out
of this? And he thought, I'm going to have to lie.
I can't, I can't be upfront. I'm going to have
(31:32):
to come up with a little white line. And so
the lie he came up with was that someone had
called him from christ Church, a family member with an emergency.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Oh no, I know.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
And so the guy said, I'm so sorry, I've got
I've got to fly to christ Church because I've got
this family emergency.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Oh that's an elaborate lie.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
And the person that had traveled from Northland did the
lovely thing of suggesting, well, I can take you to
the airport, and the said no, no, no, no, no, no,
it's fine. I'll just give me but like it's totally fine.
I can make my own way to the airport. And
the guy said, I know, I insist I'm taking you
to the airport. And it got so awkward, this back
(32:14):
and forth that eventually the guy in Auckland went to
his room, packed himself for back, Oh my god, and
got driven to the airport by this person that had
come down from Northland.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
And did he at least like get a feed at
the restaurant, And so he.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Did the whole cherry, I'm so sorry, save troubles back
to Northland. Thank you so much for the drop off,
walked into the airport and then waited like half an
hour and then thought, coast is clear, I can leave,
and then got back out and then had to uber
all the way home again.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Oh my God, this sweetheart that was actually quite a
gon tasting character person.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
It was brilliant, absolutely wild.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
That is brilliant. When did the lie backfire on you?
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I love this.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Maybe you came up with an elaborate story. You're like,
this is genius, and then actually sort of the karma
decided to come back and catch up with you. What happened?
What was the situation? You can stay anonymous, but we'll
take your calls next to eight hundred the hats and
we've got some help heats and bouchers to give away
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
That's a friend of a friend told a lie because
he wanted to get out of an encounter that he
had set himself up with with a potential date.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
We're not endorsing dishonesty, we're not at all. We're honestly
showcasing what can go wrong if you do lie.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Honestly is the best policy. He told this person that
he needed to fly to christ Church to help out
a family member with an emergency, so they drove him
to the airport. He had to pack a bag.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
More than anything, it shows actually maybe this person could
have been, you know, quite a cat. I know, so
we wanted to know when did the lie backfire? You
can text four for eighty seven or give us a
call on eight hundred the hertz xanthy joining us Hello Hello.
When did the live back? Via vos Well.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
I initially rang in six for work because I wasn't
feeling that flash in the morning, and then in the
afternoon I was feeling a bit better. So I thought, oh,
I have to renew my license, and I didn't want
to get spotted out, so I chucked on away, went
down my license and I had a little red Suzuki.
It was a sort of like used and rally racing
(34:29):
and that. And I got pulled over about six months
later by a police officer that I recognized, and she goes, oh, hey,
all of them expecting to see you in this car,
and she said, oh, I better have a look at
your license. I pulled it out and she looked at it,
and she looked at me, and she goes, well, you
looked a bit different that then you hear it was
a b And I didn't realize at the time that
(34:53):
you're not allowed to wear a wig when you get
your license. And I showed my free and who went
flanning was a cop and she said that photo bloody hilarious.
You need to show Doug and I showed him and
he looked for that. He was a and he goes, hmmm,
looks like a bit of a mugshot to me.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
That so that you committed so hard to know you're
like a You're one step away from a prosthetic night.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I love that storys Anthy, that's so good. Someone sticks
into four four eighth seven. We had an employee calling
after a wet, windy weekend. Apparently a tree fell in
a driveway so she couldn't get to work. Trouble same
tree must have stood up and fell over a second time,
because it's the exact same story she used months later
after another wet, windy storm weeknd.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Oh, it's just really really bad luck.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
Many empty many MPG the podcast. That's huge.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
A couple of weeks in Paris, the New Zealand Olympic
team has equalled their best medal hall. But we've had
the most incredible but the most gold medals we have
ever won. So we thought we'd better cross live to Paris, right,
and who better than One News Breakfast presenter Chris Chang.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Chris, I just want to start by saying that this
is slightly awk and it feels like we've just got
Maddie's X on the phone.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Yeah, no, it feels a little bit like that.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
It's like the new partner is chatting to the old partner. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
Well, look, I'm just hoping that hopefully my Instagram content
over the past couple of weeks shown that I've moved on.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Yeah, yeah, bigger and better than you've replaced.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
You look great, you sound great, You're doing well.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Fine, so you're obviously doing very well. Well, you're living
it up in Europe, my friend.
Speaker 6 (37:01):
Oh, I know, it's been such a great couple of
weeks and I'm off today, so that's it. I've been
living it up. It's been amazing, Chris.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Look, obviously an incredible weekend, particularly for New Zealand. Can
you sum up the vibe of the team over there?
Has it been pretty elated?
Speaker 6 (37:17):
It's been amazing. I mean we started off a little
bit slow when I stay slow. It took a few
days to get a medal, and everyone felt like I
was getting very antsy back home and we sort of said, guys,
pumped the brakes, you know, it's early on and the medals.
Sure enough, they just slowly started coming, and then in
the last sort of few days in the last week,
they've just been an avalanche of medals culminating in this weekend.
(37:40):
We've matched our best ever total of twenty from Tokyo
and we've we've got ten golds. That's our best ever
gold hall. So yeah, it's been super exciting for the
team and so nice that they've all had their families
over here as well.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
And power to the women they have been doing. Yeah,
phenomenal job.
Speaker 6 (37:57):
I'm pretty tell you what the patriarchy really holding up
at the end of the bar. It's definitely so why
he in a sort of situation, But yeah, the girls
have been showing how to get it done.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Hey, Chris, you've obviously been watching pretty closely. Has there
been one particular moment that that has really struck you?
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Oh, it's so hard.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
There are so many lovely moments. Hamishkur and the high
jump when everyone was watching him because basically all the
track and field is cleared off, he was the only
one left in the stadium and so all eyes were
on him when he did his victory lat That was
so cool to watch. But also I think you cast
your minds back which was you know, five, six, seven
weeks ago, it feels like, but it was only two
when the Sevens won the Black Friends Sevens won that
(38:41):
gold gold, and that was just an exhilarating night, particularly
for us. Three hours of live television for Breakfast to
remember those guys, Maddie, and it was just it was
just an amazing, amazing night because all the family and
friends and then the players came out and it was
just this big party atmosphere.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Now, Chris, I have been tipped off that actually a
few years ago you started your Manifestation journey, were you like,
I'm going to Paris at the Olympus.
Speaker 6 (39:06):
Look, sometimes you've just got to will these things into submission.
The guy have elt I we sort of cheekily said it,
but when we know, three three years a long time
in television, and we sort of said a little put
an eye on Paris twenty twenty four because we thought, man,
this is going to be epic if we ever got
there Paris after Tokyo and COVID, you just saw the
city of lights. This is going to be ethic. And
so we sort of said it jokingly and then and
(39:28):
then we over the course of those three years we
sort of found ourselves every milestone moment we happened to
be on together on breakfast and made you were there
as well. At one point we even said maybe we
should do a little boys trip. Have you seen keen?
Speaker 2 (39:39):
I was very keen. I was very I just left
before it could happen.
Speaker 6 (39:43):
Yeah, we thought if we if we said it enough
times live on television, they couldn't possibly not send us
because that good tech deck that would be, that would
be letting down the people. So I mean, I'm really
looking forward to LA twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
That's right, Plum said Plut.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
I love it. Hey, well, thank you for bringing us
some pretty epic moments over the last few weeks on television.
It's been so so impressive to watch. And I know
how amazing it would have been to be the alive
as well.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Oh so good.
Speaker 6 (40:13):
Love you to talk to you, guys and Maddie. I'm
glad you've found something that makes you happy.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
And thank you. Thank you, Chris's Trouble Time, Love you, Chris.
Speaker 6 (40:24):
Thank you, Thanks guys, Many and PJ.
Speaker 4 (40:28):

That
The Hits Drive with Medi and PJ thanks to chimis
Wee House the real hearse of fragrances. Oh no, I've
done it again.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
You've put your put what have you put in your mouth?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Milk chocy chunk. Artisan cookie.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Makes me feel Yeah, you love an artisan.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
It makes me feel as guilty when it's artisan.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Make you think there's least calories than an artisan cook.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
There's absolutely not, But they made me feel like there's
you know, fine quality ingredients.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
M m.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
They do look good, you know. Me and a chocolate
chip cookie.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Oh, you'd be a sucker for these ones. Yeah, you'd
eat them right up. All right. So I want to
proper update from the weekend. You had your cocktail nut
on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
So yeah, So we decided to do this fun little
thing with two of our favorite people, this other couple
who I went to university with.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
One of them works at another radio station.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
We were talking about that, but I've known them for
such a long time. In fact, in fact, I so
we were living together when they became a couple because
they were all friends from university days.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Was it awkward when they first started getting together?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Nah? It was kind of obvious, right, It was almost
one of those things where everyone was like, ah, like
finally they've que got together and then they've been together
ever since. So've they been happily ever after, happily ever
after with three kids. And so they came around on
Saturday night and we did this little cocktail thing where
so everyone had to make each of us had to
(01:43):
make a cocktail. So it was me and my husband
and these two.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Where did you go?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I went like a gin raspberry gin cocktail.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Or like a fizz it was.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It was like a fizz yeah, yeah, yeah. And so
we'd make the cocktail, then we'd all drink it, and
then the other three people who hadn't made the cocktail
would then do a rating like it was almost like
m k R cocktail tail rule.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
God, I think you can say something else when they
write the rating, do they write it anonymously like so
no one else can see.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
We decided that, like we the other three would just
confer and would put down.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The same So just one one.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
So it was on presentation, on taste, and on complexity
with a three three category.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
You didn't lend to you by the way that you're
talking about it.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
He did not take the victory here's what I will say.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Here we go. Whenever he says that, you know he's
on the defense.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I think going first it puts you at a real
disadvantage because does it though, Yes, because you're never going
to get a super high rating because people always go, well,
let's wait and see what comes. You know, I don't
want to. I don't want to made it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So you try them all and then give them a
rating right at the year.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
We should have done that. Absolutely, we should have done
that because.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
At least take notes on them as you go through
and then finish up with the radar.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Because when I went first, which I did, they're never
going to go, oh, we'll give this an eight or
a nine, because they'll go, well, I don't want to
score it that high in case, no, what if it's
not like what if something else?
Speaker 1 (03:29):
What was your rating?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
So I got Actually I don't even see my final
what I'm trying to remember what the final school was.
There was only point five difference between me and seecond place.
I got third. Oh yeah, out of four out of four.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Or maybe what one? Which what was this kind of
cocktail that won?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Bloody Ryan?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
It makes it so much better.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
He did a whiskey sour and he had had.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
A I love whisky salos. Did he put Eagan out?
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Yeah? And he had a couple of tricks up his
sleeve because he had recently cleaned our pantry and he
remembered that we got sent this cocktail making kit from
like a pr company a while back, right, Yes, And
there was a packet in the pantry that had garnishes
in it that I had completely forgotten about. So then
(04:26):
all of a sudden he could fancify his cocktail.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I mean, that's just being smart, utilizing and being resourceful.
I wouldn't say that's, you know, you being disadvantaged. That's
just him being on the ball, really, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yes, Yes, except he had like held on to it
until he knew that we Yeah, so I couldn't do
anything about it.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'd say kudos to Ryan. I think he was just
being the most resourceful in the moment.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Okay, well, I'm taking it on the chin because you know,
you know me, I'm a good loser.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Let me, you're never doing in cocktail again, never.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Again, or if we do it, I'm just not going.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
For yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you'll choose your placing wisely.
Next time. Hey, look, we have a really fun shop
coming up for a Monday. Usually Monday is gonn be
a bit sluggish. But I really enjoyed today's show. It
was your favorite part? Was your favorite part?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What did I love? I've got I had a really
funny story to tell you about a friend of a
friend who came up with a lie to pull out
of a date.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, that was brilliant.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I hope that the person they lined to wasn't the
same I've someone text in about that.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Actually, yeah, is there any chance they were?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I mean, who knows? Who knows?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
You always forget that people are actually listening. There's someone
on the other end. I also shared a moment where
bj nearly had a hero moment yesterday and there was
a very funny twist at the end.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
It's just so good. Plus we had to talk about
that massive Loto when and we talked to someone from
Lotto about how momentous that when was.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
All of that and more coming up on the podcast.
Enjoy everybody the podcast and confession time. I think I've
committed another crime. Oh God, at the cafe.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Not the water glass.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
No, not the water class.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know where to put the water glass? Down, don't you.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I know, yes, you take it back to a lovely
person who works established. Man.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
You don't put it with the clean cuts.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
No, or you leave it on a table and then
they can clear it.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
So it's.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
They still need to make it better.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
We've moved on.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Okay, my lattest think that I've done. This is like
cafe cafe crime etiquette. So I needed coffee before the show,
and it's always my little, my little caffeine fixed time
between sort of two to theorty?
Speaker 2 (07:01):
How many?
Speaker 4 (07:01):
How many?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
How many coffees are you rock in these days?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
One to doe?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, I'm coming back. I'm only doing I'm doing to
a day.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I am dabbling in the March a march world, which
they say gives like ten times. The poignancy of caffeine
is like a standard green tea, but like you jush
it up with a bit of milk. It's really love anyway.
So but I did go and get my real caffeine.
I got my real hirt, and I was guzzling down
some food at the same time as I walked in
(07:32):
to sit establishment. And the food that I was eating
wasn't from that cafe, right, And I was trying to
eat it as quick as possible, and then I was like,
I'm just gonna make myself sick.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I'll just hold on.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
To the wrap as I walk it. I've got like
three corners of a wrap with lots of good vegetables
and filling in it, just sitting in my hand as
I walked through, and I asked for the coffee. Do
you think this is rude behavior?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I've been there before where I've bought something from another
like a coffee shop, or maybe I've like I've gotten
a takeaway coffee, but then I've wanted food from a
different establishment that also does coffee. So I've already walked
in with a coffee in hand and ordered food from
that place.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Do you feel bad right? I feel like I almost
said to overcompensate and get like something else food.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Do you know what it's like? It's like walking into
New World with contusable bag.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yes, and you feel like.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You feel you do. But I think as long as
you're buying something from that establishment, look, is it perfect solution? No?
But I think you I think you're covered under the
rules of the fact that you were actually spending money.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
To walk in with my Simi Asian rap and I
looked around and then I didn't get anything. I walked
up that would be straight up road, but because I
was spending money with the business, it was all good.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I do think the issue would have been if you
had left your wrapper from the food at the cafe.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
You who do you think? I am?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Mady and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
I think it's really important in your relationship or any
relationship you have with anyone. Self awareness. It's a really
great tools you walk through life owning your stuff ups
and your flaws.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Oh yeah, I have to regularly do that, usually when
I've lost my call at something that I didn't need
to lose my call over.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, sometimes you just have to fall on your sword
and go you know what, I could have been better
at that moment. Something doing on me over the weekend,
and I realized what one of my toxic traits are
around the house. It's pretty low level to us, but
I realized that I get into quite a hyperfixation over
things being changed around the house, like, Oh, I'll start
(09:57):
dreaming about something being done be like, oh, I think
we really need to do this, and I always have
to ask him to do it. Because physically he can
do all the di I one stuff I cannot.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
But you've got the you've got the creative brain to imagine.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, So I'll come up with the idea. This is
the toxic tray to him. I'll come up with the idea,
and he'll go to a lot of effort to implement
said change, and then time will roll around and I
realize I don't like it anymore.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Oh my god, I would that would wind me up.
That would wind me up.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Something chronic example being there's a bookshelf. It's a very
it's just like one shelf that. A while back, I
was like, oh, we should put that up in the
lounge and it just looked like quite a cute feature piece.
Now it annoys me more than anything, and I'm like,
it is so hideous. It's just closing off the room.
(10:54):
There's no expansion. I feel like it would look so
much better with some nice art there, But I don't
have the courage to go and ask me to take
it down.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
How long did it take him to get that sorted?
How much time did he spend on to me fear
he she.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Had to get his friend Josh's so not only was
he involved his friend Joshua. So if we take it down,
it's more than just I mean, he probably could just
get the old what do you call it, the old
handgun on the old screwed.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
The hand gun?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
What do you do to get the nails out? The retractor?
What Matt Medie helped me out here?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Why are you asking? Why do you think I'm going
to know the actual anyway?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
The tool that you use to take the nails out?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Any right?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So now I'm like, I can't because it also we've
created like permanent holes in the wall, so we're gonna
have to paint over it to cover what the holes.
We're gonna no, because then the art will be a submitricle.
It's just gonna look stupid. And then I realized it's
one of my silly traits. I don't think through my
wishes properly because then I just retract act and I'm like, no,
(12:00):
we need to change them. Do you have a toxic trait?
Many that you could bring to the table?
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Where do I start? Okay? Just one?
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Just one to start.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
The concern is if you message my husband right now
said what do you think have a list of at
least twenty and then one of my toxic traits which
would come in come into effect, which was which would
be overreacting to a simple situation.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Okay, one go and by all means join in on
the phone right now. Oh eight hundred the Hats. We're
all about honesty and self awareness and if we get
you on the air, we'll hook you up with the
helpeaps about you.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Your low level toxic trait mine is leaving people on
scene and not replying to the Oh.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
You don't do that. I'm the only person that receives that.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Everyone thinks I'm mad at them because I haven't replied
to their messages. It's just me. I'm useless.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Many the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
And we want your confessions on eight hundred the Hurts.
What is your toxic trait? I had this sort of
realization over the weekend that one of mine is asking
my husband to make changes around the home, and I'll
be so passionate about it. I'll be like, oh my god,
it just looks so nice and we did this. He'll
finally do it, and then months down the track, I'll
be like, mm I don't really like it anymore. Change back.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
That must infuriate him so much.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah, I've got to find the way to break the
news to him so he doesn't lose it.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Maybe I'll do it on my birthday, Yes, yes, do
it tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Then turt me there exactly A Lea's go to Francis.
Kid A, Francis, how are you hi?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Gang?
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Good?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
All right?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Be honest? Open up? What's your toxic trait?
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I am notorious amongst friends and family for making plans
and then having to cancel them because I.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Didn't check the diary. And I'm double bossed. I don't
have a baby.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I'm so bad at this as well. Francis, did I
tell you that I went to I told my best
friend that I was going to go and run the
Danied and Half Marathon, and I told her the date
and she goes, isn't it the date of my hens do?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Oh my god? What Francis? Is it just because you
don't pop it down? You know last they got three kids? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (14:18):
Yeah, that's spring challenge because of that same reason.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Hey, Francis, if I'm not toxic, you're not toxic.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
You're off the hook.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
You're off the hook.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Let's go to a non in Wellington. Anon. What is
your toxic trade?
Speaker 7 (14:32):
My toxic traits that I believe that everyone's in love
with me, and I'm delusional enough to wholeheartedly believe.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Are we talking about pursuing lovers or just everything?
Speaker 7 (14:43):
Just every everyone. I just think that everyone that I
talked with actually sup through that. I also think that
I'm going to run it into a famous person. I'm
going to fall in love with me.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I thought that I think we've all had that delusion.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
We all and like we just click, we'd get along
di caprio. I mean, I may not be under twenty five,
and I think you just love me exactly. That's a
healthy delusion to have. I reckon, Yeah, exactly, exactly exactly.
Your own it, your own your toxic traits, and on.
Thank you for coming to the table. We're gonna hook
(15:19):
you up with the hell peaks about you. All right,
have a great week.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Someone else's texting my toxic trait. Online shopping and I
need to spend an extra three dollars to get free shipping,
and then spending an extra fifty dollars on top of
that to get the free shipping.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Happens to the best of us.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
The podcast.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
News for Losho over the weekend are the winner of
the forty four million bubble prize has come forward. A
lot of in z had confirmed today that the Aucklander
had got in touch to claim the win. The prize
is the largest lot of win in inzed history. So
we want to actually get someone on from Lotto to
join us this afternoon to hash this out a little
(16:02):
bit more. Lucy joins us. Now, Hi, Locy, big day
for you.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Guys, Cyota, It sure.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Is sure is how exciting is this for you guys?
Because this is a pretty momentous win, this one, it.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Is, And honestly, this is the most exciting part of
our jobs.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
We just love this part.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
So you get to sit down with someone within sometimes
hours of them finding out they've won the biggest prize
and a lot of New Zealand's history. It's life changing stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
What are those initial reactions that you get when you
sit down with these people, you know? Is that disbelief?
Is that shock? Is it just howling with crying? Like
what a people don't I look all.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Of the above. This belief is the most common one.
They just say to us, just can't believe it's not
a dream, Like is it real?
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Yeah, They often say it's not till they come to
a lot of HQ and they sit down and talk
to us that it starts kind of dawning on them,
this is really happening. And then the next moment is
when they check their bank online and they.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
See all the hero Oh my god, can't even amazing.
This was a pretty strange way of winning, wasn't it,
in terms of the way that they chose their numbers.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Yeah, you know, it's not as unusual as you think, right,
And it's just that we don't always see it because
you know, it only comes up when they win. So
when we saw it on the night, we were pretty
sure this is what had happened, but we obviously couldn't
say until we knew for certain and they claimed their prize.
But people who packed their own numbers, obviously they have
their special numbers, but they don't want to miss out
(17:29):
on powerball, yes, so they just play those numbers and
then do all different power balls, and then sometimes they
end up hitting the jackpot quite literally.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
So they've obviously won the power ball and six hundred
and sixty six, six hundred and seventy dollars with the
Lotto First Division exactly.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
That's just a small change right.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
My good. Now, Lucy, I need to come clean about something,
because when I found out the ins and outs of
the story, it only dawn to me to day that
you can actually choose your own numbers.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Oh you didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
She didn't know that. I'm the amount of times I
feel like I shouldn't be shocked anymore, but I am.
And the things that PJ doesn't know, But this was one.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Sure, I'm not alone. I thought you just go and
you get your tack out and you doubt your hand.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
No, I have very lucky numbers that they play all
the time, right, lou.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Well three and seven of my lucky numbers. I'll just
do that every time I go.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Well, look, I'm sure you're not alone. And and there's
lots of people like me who are just too lazy
with their own numbers because it's a little bit more effort. Yes,
but yeah, no, there are there are some players who
they have their special numbers and they choose those some however,
they do them, and look, honestly, they're not luckier than
any other numbers. We do have to say that because
they just it's all random.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Okay, Because I was going to ask that question, do
you have better chances of winning if you pick your
own numbers as opposed to just giving them randomly drawn
for you. No, it's all the same, all the same.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know, with your buy online or in store, whether
you choose your whether the machine shows is for you,
it's all completely random, right.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Well, Lucy, do you have any advice for next sun
lot rolls around for anyone? Is there any tips of
wisdom or is it just go get a ticket, Just
go and get a ticket and be in it to
win it.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Yeah, honestly, my advice is just has fun. You know,
it's a small chance to win. It's really just a
bit of entertainment, bit of fun that are joining in
with the rest of New Zealand, and then sometimes you're lucky.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Well, lo, thanks so much for joining us. Big day
for you guys. Enjoy it and we really appreciate you
coming on.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Okay, So off the back of this, it got us
inspired to ask a question for this this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
The People's poll, The People's Poll. Everybody comes together, it's
the People's Poll. Because here's the thing. It wasn't me.
I need to tell you now, it wasn't me. That
one I'm not sure that won the forty.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Four I think you'd still rock up to work the
next day like nothing had happened.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
You think I'm a bigger person than I do, so
you later what degree the suckers? I'm out of here.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I don't I generally don't know what to do in
that situation.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Yeah, I guess it depends on how much you want.
Forty four million dollars is the kind of money where
you could feasibly just quit your job.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Well, let's hypothetically go with a few dead when over
five million dollars in lotto, would you quit your job
or would you go on with life as if nothing
had happened and just live life totally normally? What would
you do in that situation? Text four four eighty seven?
Would you quit? Or would you carry on?
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Manion PJ the podcast.
Speaker 8 (20:40):
That's the People's Poll, The People's Poll.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Everybody comes together, it's the People's Poll.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
All right, we are talking about the historic win that
happened with lotto over the weekend. Forty four million parble
prize was claimed. And then I'll ok about like six
hundred and sixty thousand dollars in first division, which raizy ridiculous.
So I wanted to ask the question to New Zealand today,
if you were to win lotter of five million dollars
or more, would you quit or carry on? Like nothing else?
Speaker 2 (21:09):
So many texts. Someone said quit, I'm out of here,
like on the next plane, I'll be living my best life.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
I wouldn't quit, but I'd ask to reduce my arms
to have more of a work life balance. Quest someone
face off the interest.
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Someone else said, now that I'm nearly sixty, I'd say
an active retirement will be on the cards. But my
LOTO when was just thirty eight dollars. So I'm stilling
my desk.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I keep trying, mate, keep trying. Someone said four.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Oh sorry, no you go there you go.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
No no, no, no, no, no no, you go four million
dollars and I'm gone. Baby. There's what someone else here.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I've calculated the results. It is fifty seven percent say
they would they would keep their jobs. That's stam still convincing. No,
like see you, I'm gone.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
So you want to Bud.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Finish Me Off.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
At the meantime, I lighthearted quote game where Maddy is
going to test my quote knowledge by reading the first
half of the quote, and I just have to finish
it off. It's that simple. I'm going to try and
get at least two out of three.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I love that you say it's that simple. It's never
that simple. Piece.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Well, the premise of the game is simple. The actually
execution is not so simple.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Look, bless you. It's not your area of expertise. You
often start really strong and then falter at the.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
But do we think it is anyone's real area of expertise? Like,
is anyone really that great at nailing your quote?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah? I think a lot of people are, because often
often that quotes that we use all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Okay, well, what have you got for me? Are these
common ones? Oh? No, I'm going you're setting me up
to faight.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yeah, but that's fun. At least it's fun for me. Okay,
So your first quote is this, A bad excuse is better.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Then doing nothing. No, hang on, A bad excuse is
better than a bad life. A bad excuse is better
than failing. Excuse is better than doing nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
You know you're on the right track even going there.
A bad excuse is better than none. Okay, So you're
on the right track.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
I'm going to so you give me like a soft
point there, I'll give.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
You a soft point.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Okay, thank you.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Your second quote is this. If you give a mouse
a cookie.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Spell all these quotes of like the same formula. You
give a mouse a cookie, it might run for cheese.
If you give a mouse of cookie, well, good luck,
you're gonna get tb some serious disease like sad again again.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
If you give a master cookie, then you'll.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Never see it again. If you give a master cookie,
then you can't expect to get it back. I hate,
I hate, I hate this one more.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Go Okay, if you give a master cookie.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You might be the one in the trap.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
And the best thing is because you can't see this
because obviously this is an audio media PJ. The look
of the light on Pj's face when she thinks she's nailed.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It, because it just dawns on me that there could
be some kind of meaning around that.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Is it something to do with the trap? Nothing to
do with that. If you give a master cookie, he'll
always ask for a glass of milk. One more, really quick,
let's get to it, Okay. If you must dance with
the devil.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Be prepared to sleep with the angel.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
No, and it sounds profound, it really does. Okay, say again,
if you must dance with the devil.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Then be ready to die in the dark.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I don't know what is anything made in case? Again?
Speaker 2 (25:15):
One more, if you must dance with the devil.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Be prepared to die with the tango.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
If you must dance to the devil, you might as
well know his favorite song.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Ye these they're too far lived to field.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, I'll easier. I'll go easier on you next.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Week, bring it back and live on next week.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I still think you won't nail it.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
I might peel ridditics. Any suggestions Bull for eight seven.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
MADDYG. Medi and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
That's sort of a funny moment, you said, known Medy.
So I've told you before how we live quite remotely
and we are towards sort of the end of our rows,
and often we people have issues on our row. For
whatever reason, they decided to come up our driveway and
seek how.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Which is fine if your husband's the terrible if you're
there alone, because what are you going to do?
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Thank you? Well, thank god my husband was home and
because we were like cooking dinner. We were both just
in the catch and getting ahold lot of stuff done
last night. And then I go, hang on, who's got
a red car? And he goes, oh, no, they'll come
me out the driveway and I go yeah, And so
they made their way up, and once again, a couple
steps out. I feel like this is like groundhog Day.
(26:30):
I've told you so many of these stories lately.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
They're always a random couple that you don't know. They
often addressed strangely. Where these people dress strangely, No, these were.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Dressed relatively normal. They pop out of the car sort
of like a maybe woman in her fifties and a
guy in his twenties. And I was like, what could
this be about on a Sunday night? What was going
on here? What are you thinking?
Speaker 2 (26:53):
My immediate reaction is always like Jehovah's witnesses or something
like that.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Be wrong. So BJ sort of came out. He goes, God,
know what's going on? And they go, look, there's a
car stuck up in the mud at the end of
the road. I don't suppose you've got a ute or
anything strong enough to help us get out. And BJ,
in that moment cure the hero, is it? He goes, you, bitch,
(27:22):
I got my my Zuzu, my d Max. I'll come
up the road. No worries guys, And they're like, do
you have a robe? And he goes, I can sort
this out. Is he is?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
He just sitting there waiting for these moments? Do you
think I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
His head growing that moment he was pouring like a cat,
like he'd been waiting to pounce on a moment like
this where he could step up and be the hero.
So we got in the car. We got Charlie had
two year old. We're like, come on, Charlie, we're going
on an avinger. Let's go and rescue this car. And
he's like, I just got to go down to the
farm or grab some rope. But maybe you should document this,
like take a video. We could just show like the
(27:56):
whole moment of us to save the car.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
So he's not a humble hero.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
So I start filming it and he's like and he's like,
all right, I just got to go get the rope,
and he goes and she'd gets it and then we
arrive at the scene and we see the car that
is stuck, but right in front of it. It's another
ut that has obviously beaten us. And then he goes,
(28:25):
you guys are right, and they go, oh, yeah, we've
got everything under control. This guy's actually.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
You have just awkwardly put your phone away as to
recoil the rope and then just drive off sheepishly.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
There for a while and he was like, do you reckon?
I should just and he started doubting the other committed it.
He started mouthing off about it being this cheap, like
some kind of ute that no one should have it.
I was like, babe, you're just jealous, all right because
he got the to the moment before you. And then
he goes, sure, you guys are okay. They're like, no, no, no,
we sawt it five minutes ago. You guys are good
(29:03):
to go. So we just like edge our way back
up the roads.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
The hero moment was stolen.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Stolen.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Maddy and PJ. Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Hey, I was catching up with some friends. He said
it was such a beautiful day and orphan. So a
group of us thought they're gonna have a little cheeky
and the sun.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
You know what the Australians do well. Sunday sessions. It's
not such a big thing here in New Had they
do celebrate.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Well, we gave it a we gave it a good
whack yesterday with some friends.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Little nudge.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yeah. And I was chatting to a maid of mine
and he told me this brilliant story about it someone
that I know not well, but I know him through
this guy. So this friend of a friend was chatting
to someone on a dating app. But the person that
they were chatting to lived in Northland and this guy
lives in Auckland, and so it was kind of one
(30:00):
of these things, where is it going to go anywhere?
Is it not going to go anywhere? And the guy,
the person in Northland said, look, why don't we just
this is going well, why don't I just come down
to Aukland and spend the night, you know, and we
can get to know each other.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh god, that because I'm anxiety, like, at least go
out to a public place and have some friends around.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Now it's a lot of pressure. And so the guy
in Auckland said, yeah, yeah, come down, come down and
we'll spend it like a Saturday night together and you
can stay and say this person from Northland drove down
to Auckland and arrived and almost immediately the guy in Auckland,
this friend of a friend, just realized it's not I'm
(30:42):
not vibing it. You know, like sometimes it can be
great over chair and everything's going well, and then they
turn up in person and you just think not for.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Me, because you do get the rose colored glasses when
you're talking online and you start imagining this person that's
not actually there, but you start thinking of all the
ways that they could be the best person in the world.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Usually, plus someone can have really good banter and good
chances texting or messaging.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
And no charisma in person want so charisma.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
And so this guy in Auckland just thought, I'm not
vibing this and I can't. I can't stomach like the
next twenty four hours this person. But he felt so
bad because they're driven all the way down from Northland, right, yes,
So he thought, what can I do to get out
of this? And he thought, I'm going to have to lie.
I can't, I can't be upfront. I'm going to have
(31:32):
to come up with a little white line. And so
the lie he came up with was that someone had
called him from christ Church, a family member with an emergency.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Oh no, I know.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
And so the guy said, I'm so sorry, I've got
I've got to fly to christ Church because I've got
this family emergency.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Oh that's an elaborate lie.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
And the person that had traveled from Northland did the
lovely thing of suggesting, well, I can take you to
the airport, and the said no, no, no, no, no, no,
it's fine. I'll just give me but like it's totally fine.
I can make my own way to the airport. And
the guy said, I know, I insist I'm taking you
to the airport. And it got so awkward, this back
(32:14):
and forth that eventually the guy in Auckland went to
his room, packed himself for back, Oh my god, and
got driven to the airport by this person that had
come down from Northland.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
And did he at least like get a feed at
the restaurant, And so he.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Did the whole cherry, I'm so sorry, save troubles back
to Northland. Thank you so much for the drop off,
walked into the airport and then waited like half an
hour and then thought, coast is clear, I can leave,
and then got back out and then had to uber
all the way home again.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Oh my God, this sweetheart that was actually quite a
gon tasting character person.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
It was brilliant, absolutely wild.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
That is brilliant. When did the lie backfire on you?
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I love this.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Maybe you came up with an elaborate story. You're like,
this is genius, and then actually sort of the karma
decided to come back and catch up with you. What happened?
What was the situation? You can stay anonymous, but we'll
take your calls next to eight hundred the hats and
we've got some help heats and bouchers to give away
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
That's a friend of a friend told a lie because
he wanted to get out of an encounter that he
had set himself up with with a potential date.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
We're not endorsing dishonesty, we're not at all. We're honestly
showcasing what can go wrong if you do lie.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Honestly is the best policy. He told this person that
he needed to fly to christ Church to help out
a family member with an emergency, so they drove him
to the airport. He had to pack a bag.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
More than anything, it shows actually maybe this person could
have been, you know, quite a cat. I know, so
we wanted to know when did the lie backfire? You
can text four for eighty seven or give us a
call on eight hundred the hertz xanthy joining us Hello Hello.
When did the live back? Via vos Well.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
I initially rang in six for work because I wasn't
feeling that flash in the morning, and then in the
afternoon I was feeling a bit better. So I thought, oh,
I have to renew my license, and I didn't want
to get spotted out, so I chucked on away, went
down my license and I had a little red Suzuki.
It was a sort of like used and rally racing
(34:29):
and that. And I got pulled over about six months
later by a police officer that I recognized, and she goes, oh, hey,
all of them expecting to see you in this car,
and she said, oh, I better have a look at
your license. I pulled it out and she looked at it,
and she looked at me, and she goes, well, you
looked a bit different that then you hear it was
a b And I didn't realize at the time that
(34:53):
you're not allowed to wear a wig when you get
your license. And I showed my free and who went
flanning was a cop and she said that photo bloody hilarious.
You need to show Doug and I showed him and
he looked for that. He was a and he goes, hmmm,
looks like a bit of a mugshot to me.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
That so that you committed so hard to know you're
like a You're one step away from a prosthetic night.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I love that storys Anthy, that's so good. Someone sticks
into four four eighth seven. We had an employee calling
after a wet, windy weekend. Apparently a tree fell in
a driveway so she couldn't get to work. Trouble same
tree must have stood up and fell over a second time,
because it's the exact same story she used months later
after another wet, windy storm weeknd.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Oh, it's just really really bad luck.
Speaker 8 (35:52):
Many empty many MPG the podcast. That's huge.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
A couple of weeks in Paris, the New Zealand Olympic
team has equalled their best medal hall. But we've had
the most incredible but the most gold medals we have
ever won. So we thought we'd better cross live to Paris, right,
and who better than One News Breakfast presenter Chris Chang.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Chris, I just want to start by saying that this
is slightly awk and it feels like we've just got
Maddie's X on the phone.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Yeah, no, it feels a little bit like that.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
It's like the new partner is chatting to the old partner. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
Well, look, I'm just hoping that hopefully my Instagram content
over the past couple of weeks shown that I've moved on.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Yeah, yeah, bigger and better than you've replaced.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
You look great, you sound great, You're doing well.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Fine, so you're obviously doing very well. Well, you're living
it up in Europe, my friend.
Speaker 6 (37:01):
Oh, I know, it's been such a great couple of
weeks and I'm off today, so that's it. I've been
living it up. It's been amazing, Chris.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Look, obviously an incredible weekend, particularly for New Zealand. Can
you sum up the vibe of the team over there?
Has it been pretty elated?
Speaker 6 (37:17):
It's been amazing. I mean we started off a little
bit slow when I stay slow. It took a few
days to get a medal, and everyone felt like I
was getting very antsy back home and we sort of said, guys,
pumped the brakes, you know, it's early on and the medals.
Sure enough, they just slowly started coming, and then in
the last sort of few days in the last week,
they've just been an avalanche of medals culminating in this weekend.
(37:40):
We've matched our best ever total of twenty from Tokyo
and we've we've got ten golds. That's our best ever
gold hall. So yeah, it's been super exciting for the
team and so nice that they've all had their families
over here as well.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
And power to the women they have been doing. Yeah,
phenomenal job.
Speaker 6 (37:57):
I'm pretty tell you what the patriarchy really holding up
at the end of the bar. It's definitely so why
he in a sort of situation, But yeah, the girls
have been showing how to get it done.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Hey, Chris, you've obviously been watching pretty closely. Has there
been one particular moment that that has really struck you?
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Oh, it's so hard.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
There are so many lovely moments. Hamishkur and the high
jump when everyone was watching him because basically all the
track and field is cleared off, he was the only
one left in the stadium and so all eyes were
on him when he did his victory lat That was
so cool to watch. But also I think you cast
your minds back which was you know, five, six, seven
weeks ago, it feels like, but it was only two
when the Sevens won the Black Friends Sevens won that
(38:41):
gold gold, and that was just an exhilarating night, particularly
for us. Three hours of live television for Breakfast to
remember those guys, Maddie, and it was just it was
just an amazing, amazing night because all the family and
friends and then the players came out and it was
just this big party atmosphere.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Now, Chris, I have been tipped off that actually a
few years ago you started your Manifestation journey, were you like,
I'm going to Paris at the Olympus.
Speaker 6 (39:06):
Look, sometimes you've just got to will these things into submission.
The guy have elt I we sort of cheekily said it,
but when we know, three three years a long time
in television, and we sort of said a little put
an eye on Paris twenty twenty four because we thought, man,
this is going to be epic if we ever got
there Paris after Tokyo and COVID, you just saw the
city of lights. This is going to be ethic. And
so we sort of said it jokingly and then and
(39:28):
then we over the course of those three years we
sort of found ourselves every milestone moment we happened to
be on together on breakfast and made you were there
as well. At one point we even said maybe we
should do a little boys trip. Have you seen keen?
Speaker 2 (39:39):
I was very keen. I was very I just left
before it could happen.
Speaker 6 (39:43):
Yeah, we thought if we if we said it enough
times live on television, they couldn't possibly not send us
because that good tech deck that would be, that would
be letting down the people. So I mean, I'm really
looking forward to LA twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
That's right, Plum said Plut.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
I love it. Hey, well, thank you for bringing us
some pretty epic moments over the last few weeks on television.
It's been so so impressive to watch. And I know
how amazing it would have been to be the alive
as well.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Oh so good.
Speaker 6 (40:13):
Love you to talk to you, guys and Maddie. I'm
glad you've found something that makes you happy.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
