Speaker 2 (05:46):
No, it was so good though, and we wanted to
know when did you put your foot in it? I
made a crucial era at the Hallball, so we took
your calls on that.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
And also when did you slowly morphined your parents? All
of that and or coming up on the podcast Enjoy It.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Medi and PJ.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
The podcast Medi and Pj's Whole Ball with Raisine.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Honestly, Friday Night was iconic. It was so much fun.
If you missed what was happening, we decided to throw
our very first hall ball. We got so many nominations
at the hit Stock Co insured over a couple of
weeks and tam matera hall not far from Raglan, ended
up being the lucky winner. And all thanks to Razent
(06:32):
Color Shops. We're doing a big, little fancy do up
of the hall, get a nice, a nice lock of paint,
which the community was very, very pumped about. And then
on Friday night we threw a massive party. Did not disappoint.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I would love if anyone from Tamata, anyone that was
at the hall, if they listening right now, please teach
us through for for eight seven. How are you feeling today?
Speaker 1 (07:03):
How did you hold up?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
How did you hold out? Because boy, but I reckon
By eight o'clock. I looked around and went, oh my god,
it's on. It is on.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It was honestly, like, you know, mid party, I think
you and I just looked at each other and we're like,
this is what it's all about. Like the community just
came together and even talking to some of like the
the wiser ones of the community, they were really emotional
because they've seen the whole grow through so much and
they were like it was so special to see the
(07:34):
hall come alive again.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
We we crowned a prom king and a prom queen. Yeah,
got them to dance on the dance wad of Robbie
William's Angels. The band were amazing.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
They were blear, blear from the hat Tea Works and
the White Cuttle. Their band is amazing, incredible. So you know, honestly,
it was such a fun night. I think we're gonna
have to do it again, whether we make it. Maybe
not a buy, and you're that is quite a lot.
Maybe an annually, definitely an annual thing. If you've got
a hall ball that you would love us to come
to next. It takes us through to four four eight seven.
(08:08):
But we did have a couple of there were a
couple of movements, No, not we this is on you, McClain.
You had a couple of foot and mouth moments. And
I truly relish and joy when these moments.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, one in particular where I was were we just
had such great conversations with so many of the locals.
But there was one guy in particular that I was
having a conversation with. We were giving along famously, and
we were I was so engaged in what he was
telling me, But then my eye kept getting diverted to
something on his jacket. And you know, when something you know,
(08:46):
if someone's got something in the teeth or that got
something on their face, you've got to be a good
person and pointed out to them. Even if it's a
little bit awkward, you've got to point it out, right.
So I just said to him, I need I said,
I'm so sorry I have to interrupt. You've got something
on your top, and I'm just going to grab it
off you. And then I went to grab what I
(09:07):
thought was like a bit of fluff on his jacket,
but his jacket actually had a hole in it, and
what I thought was the fluff was just the white
teeth white shirt that he had underneath his jacket, kind
of poking through the hole.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
See, I would have to disagree with you. I don't
think at that moment that you need to pipe up.
I think you saif it's a good friend of yours.
You literally met this guy a second to go, I
don't I think you're out of line.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I thought I thought I was doing a favor because
I thought he doesn't want to go around with fluff
on his jacket all night.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Do you know what welcome to country loving this. Honestly,
every second piece of clothing that my husband has has
holes in it. It's just farm life, man.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Do you know what I've realized though, because as we
were talking about this earlier today, because you were there,
you witnessed it, peage.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I did. I wanted to crawl in a hole and die.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
What we've realized today is this is not the first
time I've done this. It's not the first time where
I've said something to someone and absolutely put my foot
in it.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
We can't actually mention quite a few of them. It's
quite offensive, not deliberately eventsive.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I don't mean to, but I just keep putting my
foot in it.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Okay, so I'll wait one hundred of the hats. Let's
kick the show off with sharing in Maddie's moment, or
you can text four for eighty seven. When did you
just put your foot in it? Maybe it was the
classic moment of oh, hey, you just got a little
bit of chocolate there just yeah, just on the side
of your check. Oh I wait, that's not chocolate, it's
a mole. I'm pretty sure I've done that before. It's okay,
we're all human, We're feating it from time to time.
(10:41):
I'll waite hundred of hats. What did you say? You
just wanted to crawl into a hole?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
We asked you to text in rule for eight seven
if you were at the Temta hall ball on Friday night.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I think this sums it up perfectly. Hey guys, I
was at the hall party on Saturday. On Friday night, Saturday,
I did not make it to my daughter's soccer. I
think that sums up exactly how many people would have
been feeling after the hall wall.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Great night, great night all around. However, one of us
did manage to put our foot in our mouth. On
the evening, Maddy went to get well. He thought was
a mark off this guy's shirt, but it was actually
a messible. He was like, no, no, no, I just got
a hole.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
He was very good, to his credit, he was very
good about but I felt so embarrassed because I didn't want.
I didn't. It doesn't bother me that he had a
hole in his jacket, but I obviously did.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Obviously did so much that you had to bring up
with him. Oh hats, though, we want to know when
did you put your foot in your mouth, Renee.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
Hello him MEDIMDJ Hi, how are you well?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Thank you are What did you do? Yeah, no, we're
very well. We're excited to hear your story.
Speaker 7 (12:10):
So this actually happened quite a couple of years ago.
I was just starting out at a new job and
I thought I'd had no one a colleague's name, and
for months I had been saying good morning to him,
saying good morning. I'm just gonna say his name, good morning, Jeff.
And this carried on for like a couple of months,
(12:30):
and then one day he pulled me aside and he's like, oh, Renee,
I just thought i'd just let you know my name's
actually Paul. Yeah, I don't to call up.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
And not even remotely close to each other, ye know.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
I was like, oh, maybe it was Itally, I couldn't
think it was. Say oh gosh, Renee, think you so
much for you call. We've got how big it's about
it coming away? At least go on to my name.
Oh waite hundred the hat time and e Hi, how's
it going? Ye're not too beers? What did you do?
Speaker 8 (13:07):
So there was a girl that I used to work
with and I was sort of having a work conversation
with her, and she had what I thought was like
a stray like hid here on her face, and so
I was like, oh, I'll just give this here your
face and I pulled it and it was like it
was it was quite long and it was connected to
her face and it kind of like pulled her skin
and my right pulled it and.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I think I almost done it.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Maybe was she good about it.
Speaker 8 (13:34):
I don't know if she really acknowledged it.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
I think my boys would have just ignored it and
put the conversation off and carried on.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
It's brilliant. There's someone with schen Hears I can really
thoroughly appreciate.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
And there's someone who would absolutely do the same thing
that you. I can fail your second hand embarrassing to
get it many and the.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Podcast from the Dors's creat soundtrack and is sixpence down
the richer on the Hurtz kiss Me.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
It was also the song that we used to go
to Friday night ice skating rink discussion Queenstown and always.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Did they do the kiss cam screen?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
No, because we were like eleven, so.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Oh okay, yeah, that would be incredibly inappropriate.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
But it was always the couple songs, so you'd like
get your little girlfriend or boyfriend and you'd go out
in the rink and you'd skate around a sixpence and
on the richer.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Did you ever injure yourself on the ring? Because it
could be quite dangerous.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Very dangerous, But no, it was a very good skate,
of course you were.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Hey, I don't know if this is just me lately,
but I feel like my phone habits have been horrendous
this long, and I'm disappointed in myself because I feel like,
for a while I was so good. I could go
for hours without my phone and I didn't need it.
And I know that this is purely habitual what I'm
doing at the moment, and I am in a really
(14:56):
really vicious cycle of packing my phone up so mindlessly
and just been getting way too much time on it.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
It's a boredom thing for It's almost like it is
almost like sick in nature. My brain just immediately picks
it up, almost as like as a boredom tool, just
something to do with my hand.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yes, I can actually feel the fatigue it's making my
brain have, like and I'm really genuinely craving a break
from it, and I think I'm gonna do that. Maybe
next week we're going to go on a little hashtag
dig you detos.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Not to bring it up again. Here we go, Here
we go from three weeks on Celebrity Ties Island, which
I want. I promised myself because we had to give
up our phones for three weeks. I promised myself I
was going to make this a habit. Did I No, No, No,
society just we're just it's just ingrained in us.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Well, let's be a reminder. I actually wanted to bring
this up because I saw a headline in the news
today and it said neuroscientist on hard to stop mindless
scrolling and create a dophamine menu, And I found it
was really interesting. This neuroscientist was talking about how, look,
we all know exercises really to give for our health
and it makes us feel better, but how do we
put that knowledge into action, especially when we know that
(16:09):
looking at our phone gives us an immediate don't mean
has So what she says was the key is to
steer away from those automatic habits or impulses and create
a dopamine menu. So write a list of things that
you could be doing instead of just checking your phone,
So you're essentially reminding yourself that there are way better
things out there, way more enjoyable things, way more fulfilling
(16:32):
things in your environment that could also be fun. So,
for example, Chuck on Music Planetstruments, have a snack, feed
your pets, walk your dog. Like this sounds so basic, right,
but she said like it can feel like such a
troub But as soon as you do it, you're like, why,
you know, why am I putting these things off? Why
(16:52):
am I freaking picking my phone up as a priority
instead of just living?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
And you think about, I mean, this is how we
grew up by doing those things and not worrying about technology.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Isn't that sad? The week to write a list, a
menu of human things to do that are better than
being on our phone. So I thought that was Look,
that's a tangible, little solution for something that we're so
addicted to. If you need to, don't be ashamed, go
write yourself a little do men.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Mady and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Finish
Me Off.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
At the mean time, even a frivolous fun with quotes.
This game inspired by my lack of skill when it
comes to completing a quote. I start well, but I
finished poorly.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
So we've decided that we every couple of weeks are
going to put you to the tests and see how
you do by finishing off some pretty popular quotes. But
this week with a wead switch it up a little
bit peage rather than being kind of philosophical quotes inspired
by the fact that, as you mentioned earlier, it's thirty
years since the first episode of Friends debuted. Okay, are
(18:00):
going to test you with some well known quotes from
the TV show Friends. Good not one of the ones
that we're going to test you on today, because you
do you know Friends, but you're not a massive crazy thing.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I'm not die hard like young producer Sira. I don't
go to sleep dreaming about Ross Jo your chandler ll Monica.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
You know I stand by Ross being the best character
on Friends.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
All right, So play along in the car, see how
you go. We've got a best of three today.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Well, we've got four, but we'll see how we go
timing wise as to what we're doing four, but we'll
start with our first one. Just so you know, it's
not that common. It doesn't happen to every guy.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
I can't. I cannot say that, so you know it's
ju Colner. Doesn't happen to every guy. I'm madly in love. No,
I've got a third, No, Polly, it's.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Not that common.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
It doesn't happen to every guy. I've got, I.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Get wext I with silky boxes, Am I honor real?
Am I off?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I'll tell you what it is. In fact, don't just
play you.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
What it is, so you know it's not that common.
It doesn't happen to every guy, and it's a big deal.
And I thought it was one of the guys talking. Okay, Dad,
start next.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Okay. It's like a cow's opinion. It just doesn't matter,
but it moves. You are on the right path, my friend,
Am I.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But it eats grass, but but it gives milk.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
You're you're getting further and further away.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
What did I say? But it moves, But it moves,
But it moves, you said again, It's just like a
cow's opinion. It just doesn't matter, and it doesn't and
it doesn't give a damn.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
No, I'm going to plant for you.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
It's all a move point, a move point. It's like
a cow's opinion doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It's move, it's move.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I feel like I'm getting close to each one. Well,
maybe this is the one for me. Okay, I wasn't
supposed to put beef and the soap. No, I wasn't
supposed to put beef with the mushrooms. I wasn't supposed
to put beef in the pudding.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Ah, you're close, beef on the trifle.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Well done.
Speaker 1 (21:04):

quite good at coming up with content for our radio show.
Speaker 2 (21:51):

leash on the show, because both of them think that
they are better at this job than we are.
Speaker 1 (22:00):

Now?
Speaker 2 (22:16):
We thought we'd run this a little bit like a
dragon's den, sharp tank style basically, because you've come come
to the table with an idea, which I don't know you.
I haven't heard the idea yet.
Speaker 11 (22:29):
Whoa, it's sort of a bad story. It's it's not
that I come up with the idea. That's polygoes for
the show.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Okay, focus, what is this groundbreaking idea that you think
we should bring to the show.
Speaker 11 (22:59):
Oh yeah, I had a bit of a or was
a maid of mine. He was when on a like
you know, went out with this bird and they never
like touch base with her. Again, And I was sitting
there thinking, Oh, maybe there's something there in the show,
like maybe Polly could like wring the bird up and
figure out what was wrong with them or what was
wrong with the date that he could like fix. Right,
(23:23):
I thought, Oh, there could be something here, like you know,
when people don't as you are, Yeah, right, So like.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
When people have been ghosted after going on a date, you.
Speaker 11 (23:32):
May yeah that's the one.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah, okay, so we are Basically we would go in
and we would try and ascertain what went wrong so
that this person can get a little bit of like
feedback for the next time they go on a date.
Speaker 11 (23:45):
Yeah that's the one, or even try and jack up
another date and see, you know, see if you can
play a bit of matchmaking.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Okay, so we can get so get feedback from the
bad date and then set them up with a new
date to see if they can rectify the situation.
Speaker 11 (24:00):
Yeah, yeah, if they're interested or whatever.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oft And often our segments come with come with names,
you know, like we've got finished me off for the
quote game with page, We've got a battle of the hits?
Do you have a do you have a name for
the segment?
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Catchy good, catchy?
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Name.
Speaker 11 (24:19):
It's about date.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
We don't have a date.
Speaker 11 (24:24):
Actually had one mistake?
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Oh I love.
Speaker 8 (24:31):
I like that.
Speaker 11 (24:35):
Date something right?
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Yeah, something or mistake?
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Okay, okay, Well be Jay, where is she Gonna put
your idea to the people of New Zealand now and
see what they think about your content idea. So I
know you like to grill me after a radio show.
Now we're going to turn it around on you and
see what the people who are listening think of Date
or Mistake.
Speaker 11 (24:58):
People love me, they love it.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Cocky.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
All right, babe, thanks so much for joining the show.
Speaker 11 (25:06):
All right, love you.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Okay, So wait and now, oh wait, hundred the hats.
Do we think BJ's content idea Date or Mistake is
going to fly on the show?
Speaker 8 (25:24):
Do we like it?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Maybe give it a rating out of ten? Oh wait,
hundred the hats. We want your honest feedback.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Mady, J, Mady and PJ. The podcast done.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
But look, my husband BJ, he's a farmer by day,
radio content extraordinari by night. Apparently we've just had him
on the phone pitching what he believes is a brilliant
idea for the show called Date or Mistake.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
So the way I understand it from His explanation was
that people would come to us and say I went
on a date or I went on a couple of dates,
and then they got ghosted or even heard from the
person again. So I'm interested to know what went wrong
with the dates. So you and ipage would be tasked
with calling that person to find out what went wrong?
Why wasn't there a second date?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Quite good on other half period and awkward.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
For the person that did the ghosting as well. That
was just terrible. I don't want to reliverse.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
I ever knew that BJ was into dating content.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
We are here, we are He's a romantic heart page.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
We got you to weigh in on the Hertz You
can text through four four eight seven. Does date or
Missdake you have a future on air? Nikki? What are
your thoughts?
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I actually really like it, Okay, so you'd listen to
the segment, Nikki, if we did it.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
Yeah, I think, like, I'm not in the dating scene anymore.
It's been about nine years and I would hate to.
Speaker 8 (26:50):
Have to go back into it.
Speaker 10 (26:53):
And so I think if I think back when things
like that happen, you kind of left, well, what the
heck and a little bit of help, you know, I'm
sure is needed more now than it was even ten
years ago.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
His extension, Nicky, was that we then send the person
on another date to try and rectify the situation. Do
you like that as an extension of the segment.
Speaker 10 (27:15):
Well, that could be a bit awkward, I think on
the on the feedback, yes, true.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
True, Okay, Thanky, look really appreciate your feedback. I think
I was having to be resistance so I could bring
the BJ's ego down to earth. This is not going
to help. Jesse is also weighing in, what are your
thoughts on date or mistake?
Speaker 9 (27:37):
Oh hey, guys, hey, I'm a bit fifty to fifty
on it as well. On one hand, I'm all for
I'm all for self improvement, so it'd be nice to know,
you know, why the date went wrong, what you could
do better on the next one with a different person.
But in terms of going for a second date, you know,
you're not really entitled to why they don't want to
(28:00):
go on a date with you again. So yeah, fifty
fifty then.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Gets a better evasive. The curiosity is there that it
could just push the boundaries a bit.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Yeah, well, I mean it's a it's a bit of
pressure to sort of pull someone up, put them up
about what went wrong, and then try and push them
to go for a second one.
Speaker 6 (28:17):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
No, I think his idea was to send them on
a new date, wasn't it?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Or was it to go on this?
Speaker 10 (28:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I think so.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Yeah, I think it was to set them up with
someone new. But take on the feedback from the from
the original caller. Does that make sense, Gesse?
Speaker 9 (28:33):
Yeah, So if it's a new person, they can take
on board what they've learned exactly exactly and try and
try and win the next person over.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
And I think we're winning Gesse over the more detail.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Yeah, he's on board. I'll tell you what the text machine,
yes BJ. Someone said another one best idea the show's
head since medics in to field.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
I love those on pro segment. But if I could
have my five cents of naming it post.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Ghost, that's good.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
That's good, very good. It's wedding so far, let's wrapping
up with Mark one hundred hats. Are you a fan
of date or mistake?
Speaker 12 (29:14):
I think it's a fantastic idea.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Okay, talk us through it.
Speaker 10 (29:19):
Purely love.
Speaker 12 (29:20):
I'm a gay fellow myself and I've been stuck Kevin
to you grinder for about thirteen years.
Speaker 9 (29:26):
Finally met a fella, so I'm.
Speaker 12 (29:27):
Not on there anymore. Look, congrats, that that amounts that
I have been ghosted has absolutely sucked. And it's not
so much I'm wanting to know necessarily why. It's more
educating the e head at the other end that's done
it to the shock and fright that they're going to
get answering the phone might actually sort of teach them
(29:48):
to maybe not do it to the next smart anology
makes it so easy to say to the no, I'm
not not keen or whatever. You can hide behind the
keyboard and you know, I think just try and ski
at the person at the other end.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Look, that is that is very thorough feedback.
Speaker 10 (30:06):
Mark.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Maybe we are going to have to bring date or
mistake to lone.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
We'll work on it.
Speaker 11 (30:11):
Definite podcast.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
I got to hang out with my beautiful parents over
the weekend.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Peage Tracy McClain, how's she going?
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Sold of the Earth is Trace? We love Trace.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I really want to make Tracy I feel like we
get along.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
You actually would, and it would be yeah, you two
would be dangerous together. But that great mum and Dad
are so good. They had been off on an overseas adventure,
of course, so that they flew back in on Saturday,
and I picked them uprom the airport because they had
a bit of time to kill in between the international
flight arriving in their domestic flight to get home to
(30:50):
Queenstown leaving, so they had maybe five hours. So I said,
I'll come pick you up and we'll you know, we'll
go up for lunch and hang out and enjoy enjoy
each other's company. So we did that, and then I
dropped him off at the airport and then I drove
home and when I got home, I looked into the
back seat of my car where Mum had been sitting. Now,
(31:13):
do you remember a story that I told you recently
about Mum. When Ryan dropped her off at the airport
to go to the.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Holiday, she left her mobile phone in the car.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Yes, and Ryan had to frantically put it in an
uber to get it to the airport so that the
mum could have it for her overseas holiday. So I
get home, I look in the back seat. It's not
the mobile phone, but she has left her sunglasses in
the back of.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
My cau trae she still thinks she's on European time. Yes, brain, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
This is a recurring theme with my mother. Bless her,
we love her, but she is one of the most
forgetful people when it comes to items in the world.
I cannot tell you the amount of peers of sunglasses
she has lost over the years. Wallet she's left behind
foe obviously another culprit. She constantly leaves things behind.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Hang on is this throwing stones from glasshouses? Matthew McClay, Well,
this is.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
The thing, because I am quit to throw shade at
my mum for leaving things behind. But then Sunday comes along.
I have run club in the morning and I go
along to the run club.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
My god, do you run?
Speaker 6 (32:25):
I do?
Speaker 2 (32:26):
I know, I don't like to talk about it. You'll
never hear me ever mention running or run club or anything.
I never talk about that. When I went along to
run club, and afterwards, after we'd finished the run, we
always often go to a cafe nearby for a coffee.
And I leave the cafe and I get my car
and I'm driving home and I go, oh god, I
left my drink bottle at the cafe. And this is
(32:49):
not the first, not the second, the third time I
have left my bottle behind after run club, so someone
has always had to come to the rescue and grab that.
I've had to frantically messageame cafe. Well different spots, like
sometimes I've left it we would finish the run, I've
left it at the cafe, I've left it by my car.
But three times I've left my drink bottle behind.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
You need a little velcrow pouch or something just to
keep it on your adultar.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
So I had to send a message to the group
ten and say, can someone please grab my water bottle?
And then I got a lot of crape in the
in the message because of course it is not the
first time this has happened. And I had that realization
that light bulb moment went off and I went I
am turning into my mother.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Honestly, they say it when you're growing up and you're
like yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, But I swear we all
morph into appearance. I am basically a clone of my mother.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Oh you are like so much.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
So.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Our mannerisms are so similar. We are like we can't
leave the house without going back and freaking out that
we've left the iron or.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
The you spur each other on.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
We do. Do you know we've even got matching moles
on our stomachs and a scar on our face, like
Mum and I are weirdly u ketty similar. That's freaky.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
God, you'll be looking for some woo woo moment.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
No, no, but I do think a lot of people
do blend into their appearance. So maybe we asked the question,
at what stage did you know you were turning into
your folks? Maybe it was your mum, maybe it was
your dad.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yes, did you have that light bulb moment where you
did something or said something and all of a sudden
we went, oh my god, I turning my mother?
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Mary and Mary and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
We're asking the question, when did you realize you were
blending into your parents? I just thought of another one
that Mum and I do. Like Mom and I, I've
realized we both talk. We just both talk at each
other if we don't listen. And so we go on
this conversation where we're both just talking almost to us.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
You're just monologuing to each other.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Yeah, pretty much, And we just egg each other on,
and like we are literally having our own conversation.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
You know.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
The short fus that I have Yes, that comes from
my father does absolutely and he will be the first
to admit it as well. There's an incident in our
famous incident in our family called the Heineken moment were
Dad loss is cool moment we still talk about. It
literally happened in two thousand and three. This happened. It
(35:22):
was such a long story, but we were at a
hotel trying to get a beer. They'd given us vouchers
for like a house beer. Dad wanted a Heineken. They said,
the Heineken's not a house beer, and Dad said, but
I want a Heineken is all I feel like. And
then the person said, I'm sorry that we can't accept
that in the voucher. And it turned into a bit
of a moment. And now anytime I lose my call,
(35:43):
and oh.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
My god, that makes so much sense. Okay, Tammy and
Hamilton's joining us. Tammy, when was the moment you realize
you were blending into your folks?
Speaker 4 (35:53):
I realized I was turning into my mother when I
heard my own mother come out of my mouth and
I said, oh, I just had just like my mother,
and my poddlers looked me, Yeah, you almost sound like Nana.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Oh my gosh, I've actually found this lately because my
grandmother looked after me a lot when I grew up,
and she'd always go, come on, come on, Polly, come on.
And now I feel like that's all I'm saying to Charlie,
I go come on, come on.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Was there a specific phrase you were saying, tammy or
is it just the tone of voice?
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Oh, the tone of voice. And whenever we talked to
animals or small soldier, we have the exact same tone.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
My grandmother used to take me faury hunting, and now
I just think that was the most brilliant distraction and
like we'd go faury hunting for hours. She had me hooked,
hook line and sinker.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Utilize that.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Yeah, I think Charlie and I might start growing fury hunting.
Speaker 6 (36:49):
So Mary and Mary and PJ the podcast that Pole's Poll.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Everybody comes together.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
It's the People's Poll, and it's just gone thirteen to
six and it's time for our daily People's Poll. Don't
forget we do. Put this up on our Instagram page,
the Hit Drive with Maddie and PJ, where you can
weigh in with today's topic. Now we have had a
bit of a theme running throughout the show to celebrate
thirty years of Friends gracing our screens. Today's poll is
(37:22):
inspired by the show.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
It's inspired by a specific episode of the show when
Phoebe gifts Monica and Rachel some of her artwork. Now,
Phoebe is if anyone who knows Friends is a very kooky,
crazy character.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Question, if you were to compare me to a friend's character,
who would you call me?
Speaker 2 (37:46):
No, I'm Rachel, No, you're Phoebe. You are absolutely Phoebe.
Do you who would you say?
Speaker 4 (37:52):
I was am oh.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Oh, Ross, Ross Lesh Joey.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
I think I might be a bit of Ross. Yeah,
I think.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
A bit of Monica with the you know, not neurotic. No,
you're not neurotic, but.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Yeah, I would say you've got quite a bit of
Monica you as well.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
She's my favorite.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
Anyway, Phoebe gifts Monica and Rachel some of her artwork,
and the artwork is like god awful, And so we
wanted to know today, if someone gifts you something that
you really don't like, are you obligated to put it
up in your house, Whether it's artwork, whether it's a
piece of like a sculpture, whether it's a drawing, whatever
(38:42):
it might be. Are you obligated to display the gift
if you don't like it?
Speaker 1 (38:48):
That is so good. I'd say, no, you're not. But
I but it's very easy to feel like you have to,
particularly when said person comes to your house regally.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
I think that's that. I think that's the clincher. How
often are these people coming around to your house? Because
if it's your if it's your parents, or your family,
or your best friend, and they're coming around all the time,
inevitably they're going to say, hey, where's the where's the
class dolphin sculpture that I gave you?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
I recently took some art that we were given to
the old shots, and I'm so I'm so nervous that
it may have been discovered.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Well, we would laugh, it would be so covered. That's
a small town.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
I love it a small town.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
It's true. Well, we'd love for you to weigh in
on your thoughts. You can teach us through to Fourth
Rights even or head over to our Instagram page that
hits Drive with Many and PJ.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
And Wayne Many and PJ. The podcast.
Speaker 6 (39:42):
That the People's Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
It's the people's poll.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Kay. So we've been celebrating Friends as Susy at the
anniversary throughout the shot this afternoon and well, the two
biggest Friends geeks that you'll meet, Producer Sarah and many
have just been putting the hands together so excited to
come up with content for the show today. So we
got inspired by a certain scene in Friends.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
Yeah, in one of the episodes, Phoebe gifts Monica and
Rachel her artwork and it's truly awful. It's like it's
basically she's created these women that are kind of emerging
from the canvas the horrible, horrible, horrible, And but the
(40:28):
women Monica and Rachel feel obligated to hang this artwork,
of course because Phoebe's gifted to them, even though they.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
Have Yeah, and especially because they live together, right.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
So exactly, you can't really escape, no, and they're always
around at each other's house, so you can't escape. You
have to put it somewhere.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
So it has got us asking the question, if you
were given art that you don't like, are you obligated
to put it on the wall? Are you obligated to
display it, whether it's some art or you know, some
nice photo that's been part together, so you have to
put it up.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
Someone steps into four for eighty seven and said, at
the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you
don't like it. What's important is you love the person
who gave it to you. If you don't like the person,
that's an easy call. Throw it away.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Oh that is it's actually an interesting point.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
So if you're not, if you're not a big fan,
check it out. If you love the person, hang it up.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
I feel fair. I actually have been given some lovely
things over time, and I probably should have put them
more up on the wall with pride, but they do
not just going in chrawes and actually no, I'm just
re evaluating myself as a person.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Ryan made a really Ryan made a call very early
on when we started having thesis in the Fuse. He
said that the artwork is absolutely not going up on
our wall. It's not going out. We're going to make
a stand.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
Okay, So what are the people saying? What is the
official percentage of verdicts.
Speaker 2 (41:53):
Eighty one percent of people said no, you do not
have to display a gift from given to you by
a friend if you don't like it. Nineteen percent said yes, you.
Speaker 1 (42:02):
Should okay okay, So that's clear. We won the majority
of absolutely don't. Don't it makes me don't slightly be there.
Speaker 3 (42:11):
Mary and PJ, Maddy and PJ. The podcast The Heads
