Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hits Drive with Maddy and p J. Thanks to
chimis Wee House, the Real House of Fragrances.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And on that.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hi, and welcome to the podcast. Very good to have
you back me friend.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
It's so nice to see you.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Poor Siah.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I think she melted down into a puddle of anxiety
last time.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
Just so different awkward things. If you listen to the podcast,
I will have.
Speaker 6 (00:27):
To go back and listen to it.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Don't, don't, don't.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I was like the most of the show, He's absolutely
fine and it's just easy to dwell on a moment.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
I was trying to I was trying to channel you,
and I was going, hmmm, you don't need to say
to everything.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And I was like, oh god, I think Sarah, I
think that's what read to get rid of me because
it came came out side of the show and like
was like nice.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
He was like just a.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Ginol ear chick for you. Yeah, so nice. And then
there was another right where she did it. It's just like.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
And then you overthink it, right, It's like those crackses
can be huge. I remember when I first started doing
live crosses on the TV. I would go up, I
would bob up, and down on my toes.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
And sometimes like it will get so bad that if
they were, if the cameraman hadn't framed it properly, my
head would like go down out of the frame so eventually,
because you know, you know it about yourself. But if
it's the cracks, if it's a crack, like saying, you
can't stop it, like it's just so cracks.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
I was always told it was a crutch, cruck, I
think both of them.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, maybe you're right.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I'm thinking about like on here, we used to always
get told it was a crutch, was.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Cru Yeah, you're right, cracks is the wrong word.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
But no, but a crutch is a long stick or
the crotch of a body or uses unconsciously.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
They are usually not needed and don't end.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
And a CRUs is the most important point of an
issue anyway, the crutch. Once it's a crutch, it's hard
to get rid of it. So then one of the
one of the cameramen at tvnz E, because they have
sand bags that they put to like way down like
light lighting equipments or lighting, he got one of the
(02:35):
sand bags and literally put it on my feet at
the start of one of my crosses so that it
was so heavy that I couldn't actually lift my feet,
and honestly it stopped. I don't I stopped. Dominated Did
you have to do that like a few just just
just so that my brain could like get used to
not doing it anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
That becomes your default behavior. I used to spit in
my collar at skill. My grandma you had to used
to us, had to put that stop it nail biting
stuff on their.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, it's just weird, is it not? Yeah, Like at
least mine's just like a little movement. You were like
actually actively choosing to spit into your collar.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Only when I saw people that I didn't want to
turn into.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
I think that's a different issue than a crutch, to
be honest.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, I think we're going yeah, yeah, it's we don't.
We don't have the time to.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Comprehensively cover the issues going on to my brain as
a child.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Been a big day.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
We cross live to the U we say, we cross
live to the Melbourne Cup and the show. And you've
also got another podcast to record and you've been traveling
all day. So look, we're going to keep this very
brief tonight, but we'll come back with a real hearty
in trophy. So maybe we'll do like a little special
Q and A or something. You know what I was
saying us anything?
Speaker 4 (04:00):

some ignog drink.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Or some Now, yeah, we should. We should do a
little fist of special.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I think we should celesta for questions though on our story.
We've got a special podcast coming up? Is it anything

is limit.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I love that anyway. Enjoy the podcast. We talk about

a meeting?
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yes, medice or a personalized plate and was very confused. A.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Well, it's meaning.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Plus, we had a very soucy group therapy issue this week.
It was about informing someone that their partner used to
be a trader.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
What do you do it?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Biggie? It's a biggie. What do you do?
Speaker 4 (05:09):
All of that coming up and more. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
And the podcast.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Can I please have some Chariots of Fire music. Here
we go.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
You just wanted to set the scene, all right, You
got three minutes to talk about running and your time.
Speaker 8 (05:35):
Now.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
So I have made it my whole personality this year,
and I do apologize for it. But you and I
started training for the half marathon and which we did
in May.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Correct and I stopped and you kept going.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Usually I'm so lazy and not at all organized.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
As I said, you can be addicted to far worse things.
Speaker 6 (05:58):
That is true.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
That is true, but it's something sparked. Look listen to me,
I sound like Tony Robins. Something sparked in me that day, PJ.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Just turn the music down of it serious contents.
Speaker 6 (06:09):
Now I need it.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I need the intense intensity. There's something sparked to me
that day, PJ. And I've continued my running journey ever since.
I did injure myself recently with my calf muscle was
not great, so I wasn't sure if I was going
to be able to run the half marathon and aland
over the weekend. But I thought, buger it. I'm going
to give it a go and just try him a best.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I can do, so shaved my leg. I taped myself up.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Question.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Sorry, I don't mean to introduce, but when you shave
one leg, does that mean you have to match it
on the others.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I haven't matched it, so I got one unshaved leap.
How long will it take me to regrow my hairs
on my legs?
Speaker 4 (06:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
For me, could take a while, and it'll take a while
to get back to the bush that it was.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Really yeah, i'd even it.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Up, mate, I would absolutely shave the other one. You're
going to feel lopsided.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
And I just tell you something. So I did. I shaved.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
I literally just got the clippers and I shaved the
back of my calf because that's why I was going
to put the the athletic tape on. So I didn't
shave the whole thing, but the bit that I did shave.
I went and showed Ryan and he went, oh something
about it. He said, calves look really good, so maybe
it could be a thing.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
It makes everything look a little shiny, you know, you
really see your true skin truly.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
So I got over to the half marathon started in
Devenport and on Auckland's north shore. So I had to
catch the fury over in the morning, and I got
over the end, and then I was stretching. I did,
at the very last minute decide that I needed to go.
I think I needed I needed a nervous little number two.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
So I did a coffee, gone straight through.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
Have a coffee.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
That'll get you.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, And I thought, well, better here than halfway long.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
It's true. I mean, you hear those horror stories.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
I've seen the photos. Yeah, yeah, yeah, those photos will
stay with you forever.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
So so I thought I've got to go. But then,
of course the line was so long that I was
like sitting on the toilet and I looked at my
watch and I went, oh my god, it's about to start.
So I had to quickly get out of the bathroom
and then run. I know, I had to run to
the start line. So I'd already like started, no, i'd finished,
(08:28):
I'd finished, but I had to run to.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
The start line.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
It's right, you're ready to go.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Yeah, But it meant I ended up running an extra
like five hundred meters. Oh come, well maybe not five
hundred meters.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
But tell everyone your overall time. I'm so proud of you.
This is amazing.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Think you. So I've gone shye, now I.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Got it here, get the Chariots of five music back.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I got a personal best time and I ran the
half marathon in one hour thirty one, which I'm very
proud of.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Although you've been a bit that you're a minute off.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
One thirty, weren't you. Wow, it's really like six seconds
off one thirty to be fear.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
But now I've got a new goal. I've got a
new goal.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
So which your new goal? Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
One thirty? Yeah, right listening, PJ. We're very proud of you.
Thank you one here at the hats.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
H Q, thank you many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
So I played Hostess with the Most Is last night, Matthew.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Now this is this This is for someone that was
coming up and bringing friends.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, And to be honest, I was quite nervous because
it was the very talented guy who built our house
and poured so much love, time and effort, blood, sweat
and tears went into that, and.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You were worried that you'd left the house too, missy,
and he was going.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
To be disciplined.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I was just worried because we just hasn't twenty twenty one,
and I was worried he'd be.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Like, whoa this hand.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
He was also a couple of friends with them as well.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yes, there was a party of three. So we took
it upon ourselves to you know, put a bit of
a feast on. And I decided to make a vegan
curry because one of the guests was vegan, and I
do love a vegan curry. So I made that, and
then I check it on the side because otherwise my
farmer husband, where's the mood, where's the meat?
Speaker 4 (10:24):
I had to have a meat option.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Oh my god, seriously, honestly, he paddics and so they
came over.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
But I when I was cooking it earlier in.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
The day, I didn't realize how much to leave makes
some butter. And then when I was tasting it later,
I was like, oh, this is pretty hot. So I
poured in another turn of coconut crey and honey, and
I thought I'd mellowed it out. Maddie literally whole meal everywhere.
I was doing that thing when they're trying to v
for light and like they're.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Dying and they're like, oh, it's really good. It's really good.
Speaker 7 (10:58):
Any more water.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
It's got a bit of a kick to it, a
bit of a kick.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Like I was getting out yoga from the fridge and
asked dowsing everyone's plate, and I was still like, ah,
and usually my mom loves a carry because my mom
was there too, and.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
She's like, but I think I'm just gonna have to
put this to the side. I don't think I can
get through it.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Can I just say this is on the fault of
a chili flake, because I'm swear to God, you can
do a tiny, tiny amount one time and it's way
too much. You can douse your meal and chili flakes
the next and you don't even you don't even taste it.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
They're far more potent, I think than the regular chili.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
You just don't even know what you're gonna get. Son't.
But what I found really interesting with the stay is
the reason they were actually here was for the daughter to.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Go and set her drives license. And I was like, what,
so wait, you guys have come from Nelson, from Nelson Tarcica.
Actually yeah. Two.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
The worded upper to set the test because apparently there's
huge waiting lines around the country and it can take
a long time to be able to actually book in
and be able to set your license and only think
there was available.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Ability and masterday.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yeah, but crossing the islands like crossing the cook straight
to set your driver's license.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
It said they got here last night, they're back tomorrow.
I was like, jeepers, that's a that's quick trip for
a little test and no pressure like you've got, you know,
two people coming up in the car with you.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
Really hope that you passed. So I hope she does.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
But it did get me thinking, how far did you
have to travel for an appointment or a meeting? I'll
eight hundred the hat so you can text four four
eight seven. And I do believe there's someone in our
office who lives in Auckland and will only get a
car service to and Todunger, So every time her car
is due.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
She just jumps in the car and goes what two
ish three hours? Maybe I'll wait hundred the hats. What
about you?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
How far have you traveled for one appointment? We'll take
your calls next.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
May. J Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
The Heads, and we're talking how farre you traveled for
an appointment or a meeting. We had some guests at
our house last night and they had traveled from Tarkaka
near Nelson to the whited Upper for the girl to
sit her driver's license, which is probably.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
She really smart.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
I haven't actually looked into the wait times that people
can have in certain regions, but apparently it was the
quickest way of getting her in.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
And I do remember being a teenager and there was
more cain, you're so keen if you have to wait
even a few weeks, you're getting antsy.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Especially coming up to New Year. Drive may want the freedom.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
So we wanted to know how far have you traveled
for a one off appointment? Amanda is joining us high
Amanda good and.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (14:04):
So?
Speaker 9 (14:05):
Yeah, I worked for a company in Dunedin and the
company that I worked for were updating their website and
they had one of their franchises. We're having issues getting
all this stuff together at one time so that they
could hire a local photographer to get in. So they
paid me to fly from Dunedin to Napier Photos and
(14:27):
go back again to.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Take six photos. You flow all the way from to
Napier from Dunedin.
Speaker 9 (14:35):
I did work waiting for the staff to come in
and out.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Ye at least they paid you as well, but.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
You'd feel you'd feel pressure, Amanda, those six photos that
better be better, be good. Yeah, you wouldn't want to
have your friend. You wouldn't want to have your thumb
over the camera or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
That always happens, and sent him into time. Just thumb
fifty percent of the picture. Allie is joining us. Oh right,
hundred the hats.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Hello, Hello, how are you very well? How far did
you travel for an appointment?
Speaker 10 (15:13):
I drove five hours to get a tarmacle done and
then the artists ghosted me, and three years later I
still haven't had it done.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Oh that's so Rose. Could you find any connections to
the artist?
Speaker 10 (15:25):
I went to high school with them, so I actually
knew him personally. He just didn't reply to any messages
on any social media or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's a big Five hours in the car is a
long way as well.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
There's some serious guys thing. Did you so you never
ended up getting the tarmacle?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
No?
Speaker 10 (15:40):
I never got it done. I still yet to get
it done.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Well, maybe if there's an artist out there right now.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And don't you do it, don't you dear ghost OWI
don't you dear?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Don't you dear hey, Alie that you recall we've got
to give us Bee House Prize coming your way.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Someone said they traveled all the way to Canberra for
a ten minute appointment for a new passport because she
the Belgian and there's no Belgian embassy in New Zealand
and the closest one was Canberras. They had to fly
all the way there ten minutes and.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Surely you'd make a weekend of it.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yeah, you'd hope, Joss.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
Maybe the podcast.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Personalized plates are a bit weird sometimes.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I mean, look, I love that someone is passionate enough
about a subject to put it on a plate that
they permanently have to drive around with that declares to
the world that thing, Like why a commitment?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
It's a huge commits. Sometimes I think they're great. Sometimes
I go what are you doing? And I had I
had what are you doing moment in the car. Today
We're driving along the motorway and the car in front
of us had the number plate I'm going to spell
it out for you, m R S t A B
missus t A B. Well, I was like, is it
(17:02):
missus t A B? Or is it mister stab.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Oh wow, mister stab or B Or was it missus AB?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I think that's a stretch so at first, so I thought, okay,
maybe it is a Maybe it's a woman who doesn't
mind a little flutter at the you know, at the race,
at the pot or at the race or something.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Then I drove alongside and.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
It was an older gentleman, and so then.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
I thought, mister stab. What hang on?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Maybe he works in botox, or he's like a mister stab,
or he's an acupuncturist. Because because my friend who name's Abby,
she calls herself stabby because she's an acupucturress, and she
calls like stab in your face stabbing.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
But if you had a personalized plate for your business,
wouldn't your car explain what the business was so that
the number plate isn't just mister step because away you
look like a psychopaed driving on the or motorway.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Can someone please give clarity to this?
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Do you want to know maybe you personally know mister
stab or you know what, Maybe there's some I don't know,
alternate meaning for it.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
I think this needs to be a prerequisite if you
were ordering a personalized plate, you have to be forced
to explain the number plates so that I can then
go online and look up why you are mister stabbed
driving your car on the Aukland Motorway.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Please text to hear any inscience to form.
Speaker 7 (18:36):
Maddy ANDPJ Madi in PJ the Podcast The Heads inpj's
group therapy.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
In the meantime, it is time to put our feet up,
sit down on the chaise lounge, take a collective deep
breath and find out this week's dilemma.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
This has coming from one of our listeners who sees, Honey, MPJ,
I need some advice on a tricky situation. My boyfriend
and I have been together for two years and everything's
been great. However, his friend is now dating my ex.
Here's the catch. My ex cheated on me repeatedly, and
(19:16):
I eventually left him because of it. I know people
can change, and maybe my ex is treating my boyfriend's
friend differently, but part of me feels it's only a
matter of time before he does the same thing to her.
My boyfriend thinks I should stay out of it and
let her find out on her own if he hasn't changed,
but I feel guilty not giving her.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
A heads up. So what should I do?
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Am I overstepping by telling her about his history with me?
Or would it be wrong to keep this information to
myself and risk her getting hurt the same way.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Oh my god, I'm actually torn on this one because
initially I was like, yeah, tell her, you know, tell
her she deserves to know.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
But actually, maybe this.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Guy has changed his ways, maybe a short time, and
maybe he deserves a fresh slate possibly, And who is
she to go in and and you know, sabotage any
chance of that relationship flourishing, because every relationship is different,
and he could have been going through a really tough.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Time at that period.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Although at the same time, it'd also be so tempted
to just like, I don't know, I don't know. It
depends how close she is with her boyfriend's friend as well,
like how close is this friendship?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Well, I think they're pretty they're pretty good friends. So
the boyfriend is her boyfriend is obviously friends with this
other woman, and the woman is now dated dating her
ex boyfriend Ryan. My husband always says, not my circus,
not my monkeys, as in, it's just not my problem,
you know, stay out of it. But I don't know.
(20:54):
I feel like if you have information, even if you
say it in a way of hey, I know, people
can change. Yeah, but I just need you to know
that this happened to me, so that you have the information.
I'm not saying I think he's going to do it.
I'm not saying I think.
Speaker 6 (21:12):
You should leave him.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
I just need you to have the information so that
you are fully aware.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
I think that's a good diplomatic solution. That's somewhere in between. Yeah,
you're not telling her what to do. You're passing on
the information and then she can make up her mind
from there what to do with that.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
Oh, it's a tricky one.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What do you think New Zealand Minny and I are
obviously a little bit flaky here. It's a really different
situation to be and maybe you've been in a similar one.
But do you think this woman needs to tell her
boyfriend's friend who is now dating her ex who cheated
on her? Does she need to let the cat out
of the bag and let her know what he's truly like,
(21:53):
or let bygones be bygones and let her just go on?
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Very well?

Speaker 1 (22:15):
All right, let's all ruminate over this week's dilemma. Many
can you please rehash?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
My boyfriend and I have been together for two years
and everything's been great. However, his best friend is now
dating my ex. Here's the catch. My ex cheated on
me repeatedly, and I eventually left him because of it.
I know people can change, and maybe my ex is
treating my boyfriend's best friend differently, but part of me
feels it's only a matter of time before he does
(22:42):
the same thing to her. My boyfriend thinks I should
stay out of it and let her find out on
her own if he hasn't changed, but I feel guilty
not giving her heads up. So what should I do?
Am I overstepping by telling her about his history with me?
Or would it be wrong to keep this information to
myself and risk her getting hurt the same way.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
How would you feel if you were the girl who's
dating the X and then you find out down the
track that actually this girl had been jetting on and
she shares the information, you can she be gutted?
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Trying to think of it in a flick way.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
I think you would be gutted, But I guess on
the flip side, if she does tell this girl, that
also puts a little bit of a wedge potentially between them.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Yes, and there's a tricky one.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
A lot of people are texting and though quite passionately
four four eight seven, don't get involved. You will look
like the bad one. Another one said stay out of it. Yes,
another one said leave it alone. Different lives, different people.
Let's go to Kirston on oh eight hundred the hats Hi, Kirstin,
you wanted to weigh in on this week's group therapy.
Speaker 11 (23:43):
Hello, yes, I agree, stay out.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
Of it, stay out of it?
Speaker 5 (23:49):
Have you?
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Yep?
Speaker 6 (23:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Why stay out? Why do you think she should stay
out of it?
Speaker 11 (23:55):
So it happened with me with a friend of mine,
best friend for my whole life, and I told her
and she stopped talking to me for about.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Three or four years.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
She ended up marrying the guys. Wow, oh, different relationships
that Yeah, stay out of it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yeah, that's because instantly you know, she could get very,
very defensive totally, and I think you do have to
assess and be prepared that it could damage your friendship.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yeah, and look, that's a horrible thing. Being cheated on
is awful and you don't. You never wish that on anyone.
But also people do change and people grow up, and
relationships are different, you know, from one person to another
as well.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Rosie wants to weigh in. Hats hi, Rosie, what are
your thoughts?
Speaker 12 (24:44):
Hi, I've got similar thoughts to everyone else, so I'm
not getting too and getting in the middle of it.
But this ex boyfriend is now in the circle of
friendship groups and you're close enough to have conversations and
social settings and maybe just brush it past him and ask,
you know, have you opened up? Yeah, your new girlfriend
(25:08):
about the past, and is she aware, just so that
like at least she then knows, Okay, she doesn't know, Yeah,
I had to know. He has told her, And that's good.
He's learnt and he's grown and he's being vulnerable.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
That's true.
Speaker 12 (25:24):
If you're going to be a part of grow and
move on, Like I don't think that going straight to
the girlfriend and sharing that information as well.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
It's a really good it's a really good idea. Put
the ball in his court because it's not necessarily your
I guess it is part of your story to tell.
But also if you put it in his court and say, hey,
I think you should probably let her know. I don't
you know, I'm staying out of your relationship.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But ye, I mean yeah, then he really opens up
from the get go. I've stuffed up, I've done this.
I'm not going to do that with you. Although someone
texts and something wants are at always a rat I'd
be concerned.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
About your men hanging out with them. I don't know.
I think I think maybe going to the guy.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
It's a smart idea. No, I think that's a smart idea.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
I think that's the smartest idea. But ultimately go from there.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
I think ultimately what most people have said is stay
out of it. Not your story, not your business.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
And still to come, we're gonna god blah. Still, you're right.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Do you need me to pick up how they're going
get distressed?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
When I know politics is coming over remart across Live
to the States, where political correspondent Jack Taim is on
the ground. He has been at a Kamala Harris rally,
Lady Gaga.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Ricky Martin.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
They're performing and we're going to get the vibe of
what it's like on the ground in the USA.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Coming up inside the next twenty minutes.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Hey, I have I was away yesterday. We had a
bit of a family thing we had to go to
with Ryan's side of the family, and we were in
New Plymouth. I love New Plymouth.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
It's such a great little person you have.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
You've talked about it a lot, and I must say,
I don't know if you're doing some secret ambassat isshit something,
but you have sold me on taking a trip to Taranaki.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
It's so great. Anyway, we were down there and we
were hanging out with a bunch of his family, including
some of his cousins, and my god, that's so funny.
But one of them is kind of is funny, but
almost unexpectedly funny, Like I don't really don't think she
means to be funny, but she.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
Just that's the best kind of funny.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Yeah, And we were talking and I can't even remember
how it came up. She must have been telling us
about a flight she was catching recently or something, and
she said, she said to me, she was telling the
story about her pilot, who was obviously a female, And
she goes, what's the what's the word you know for
a female pilot?
Speaker 6 (27:56):
A pilot, and I went, you a kid.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Stop.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
She just I don't know whether she truly thought that
there was a name for a female pilot or whether
she just had this absolute brain from a pilot.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
I mean, I get it. I totally get it. Like
a cute little pilot, kind of feminine about it.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
That's also a little patronized.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Female pilot were bad, But she didn't mean it to be.
It was funny and we were all in her h
stere x and I just looked at her and I
was like, you were never living this down. This is
going to haunt you until you're dying days. We are
all going to be sitting around for years to come
(28:47):
talking about the time that you thought a female pilot
was called a pilot.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
That saysn't as extreme.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
But when we went camping the other day and we
were at a camp Grandja, guys, have you been to
the evolution block yet?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
The evolution blot?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
He goes, yeah, the evolution block, you can go Sharon toilet.
I was like, babe, do you many ablutions? Then the
pennie dropped and he was like, that makes so much more.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I've got one about my husband. Then he was he
was once reading a book and he turned to me
and he goes, who would have a name like E
one E W A M. And I went, I think
that's you and babe.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Oh wait one hundred that hats And it doesn't have
to be a faux pa with your words. It could
be anything that you haven't been able to live down?
Was this something stupid you did in your youth? And
it always comes back.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
Up in conversation.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
The podcast, and we want to know the moment you
have never been able to live down? Oh wait, one

To christ Church after the earthquakes.
Speaker 13 (31:14):
We got talking in conversation about one of the towns
in christ Church called eleven Am, and I ages couldn't
figure out what he was talking about until we saw
a street sign and he said that place, and I went,
you're talking about Ilum. I'm still written on the sign
eleven Am.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
I used to live on Island Road. I particularly enjoy
that reference.
Speaker 11 (31:39):
Wouldn't get past it.
Speaker 13 (31:40):
I was like, did you really think it was eleven Am?
Speaker 6 (31:43):
He was, It was brilliant.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Someone teachs in the phone as I had obviously gotten
wheat or something peage, and they said, I put my
first Eva phone in the microwave. I told my mum

table with my partner's grandmother who was eighty five, who

Brand and I still don't get to live down. By
my few mates.
Speaker 8 (32:30):
Children, that's brilliant.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
To be fair, I may not be like, oh you know,
I don't know if i'd know that, but to be
schooled by age.
Speaker 6 (32:39):
So good.
Speaker 7 (32:42):
Many, MPJ Many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
The Heads, and we're about to cross live to the
States where political correspondent Jack Tame is on the ground.
It was supposed to be the end of the Kamala
the Kamala Harris rally. It was supposed to have wrapped
up by now, but apparently she's just got on stage.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
Jack is joining us now, Hijack.
Speaker 8 (33:04):
Hey, you call me a political correspondent, That's not what
I'm here to discuss. I'm here to discuss Ricky.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
Martin's has he got it.
Speaker 8 (33:13):
Like political line on me? P Jacob, We've had Ricky
Martin we've had beat Joe and we've had Lady Gaga
here this evening, and you want to talk politics? Are
you kidding me?
Speaker 12 (33:23):
All right?
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Okay, so so big questions. First, Jack, what song did
he perform?
Speaker 8 (33:28):
Well, okay, three guesses.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
He's got he's got to do live in the video.
He could do, he could do she.
Speaker 8 (33:35):
Bangs, he he he came out, and first of all,
he did a Spanish language song because here in Pennsylvania
trying to like rile up all of the Puerto Rican voters,
and he, of course is perto ricans, the Spanish language song.
So we were kind of like politely boffing along to that.
You know, they're not really following it, although it was
a good opportunity for me to whip out my fourth
form Spanish.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Multilingual God, I mean number there is, Jack, Okay, between
the two of you, we don't need to do.
Speaker 8 (34:05):
After that, he did live in Levita Loca and it
was was amazing. And then his third song, he did
that one, La Hella, that one, Yes, I remember.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Jackie sod.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
There.
Speaker 8 (34:19):
Honestly it was. It was really good. It was really impressive,
and he had like the whole backup dancer thing. The
thing about Ricky Martin is that guy looks great. He's
so like he is really like, you know, he could
have recent on his laurels, but he was absolutely he
is just you know what, he's just kept himself right there.
And I love it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I love how you're literally in the new politics. You
know that you've got a professional cross to do with
the news and about this is just your fluffy little
patch where you can tell us.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
Really this is the thing some Madella was not asking
Jack Tame about Recky Martin's performance, so this is where
he gets to talk about it. But we do need
to talk about the politics side as well, Jack, because
this is this is such it's a crazy election. What
is it actually like over there? Can you kind of
sum up the vibe?
Speaker 8 (35:05):
I would say that the vibe is not good, no vibe,
just in that it's like it's so contentious and America
has such a partisan and tribal political culture. It's your
team versus my team, and there's not a lot of
like middle ground where people are kind of agreeing on stuff. Now,
I think the thing that distinguishes this election from the
(35:25):
last three US elections that I've covered, Yep, it's my
fourthn't worry about that. And I thinks the thing that
distinguishes is the gender split. So there's like a sixteen
or seventeen point difference between men and women when it
comes to supporting Kamala Harris and supporting Donald Trump. So
guys love Donald Trump, don't like Kamala Harris. Women really
(35:45):
like Kamala Harris don't like Donald Trump. And like I
just I always think, like, how many really awkward dinner
table conversations must be around America right now because it's
a massive, massive factor.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
Yeah, I mean last felt so polarized. Do you think
people are saying I to eye at all this time?
Like more so like from Afar. I want to believe
that that's true, people finding some common ground amongst it all.
Speaker 8 (36:12):
Nah, not at all?
Speaker 9 (36:14):
Really?
Speaker 8 (36:15):
Why actually just think that people like are living in
different realities now. And I say that I was talking
to her. I was talking to a friend a couple
of weeks ago who over here, who's a really keen
Trump supporter and he's a really really close friend of mine.
And I sat down with him and I was just like,
do you think the last election was stolen? There's no
evidence that it's been stolen all of the courts about
all of Donald Trump's cases, and he was like, yeah,
(36:37):
I think it was. I think it was a corrupt election.
And I was like, man, we're just living in different information. Yeah,
It's like it's like the way he sees the world
now is actually different to the way I see the world.
And you know, I guess you've got to hope that
that people can find a way to move forward, and
you know that things that there's not civil unrest, it's
(36:57):
not violent or anything like that after tomorrow, But yes,
to feel that optimistic. Okay, bye, Recky Martin.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
Well, thank god for Ricky Martin really quickly, Jack, because
we've got to go.
Speaker 6 (37:07):
You can we predict this thing at all?
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Tomorrow? Tomorrow's the election, of course. Do you have any
sense of where this is heading?
Speaker 8 (37:14):
Okay, I don't think anyone knows for sure, and anyone
who says they do is lie. I will say this.
At the start of this year, I said in three
places publicly that I thought neither Joe Biden or Donald
Trump would be the next plut in the United States.
So I'm going to stick with my guns and say that. Yep,
maybe Carmela.
Speaker 12 (37:30):
Can pull this off.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Well, good luck Jack, and good luck with your professional
cross in about twenty minutes.
Speaker 4 (37:36):
How many recky mentions will you draw up? Do you reckon?
Speaker 8 (37:40):
I probably won't mention that, but where I see it
looks really good.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Thanks so much and all the best with the rest
of your time over there.
Speaker 8 (37:48):
Oh good guys, Thank you many and PJ.
Speaker 7 (37:51):
The podcast, The Deep Pool's Poll, the Beat Pool's Poll,
everybody comes together, It's the Deep Pools Poll.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Okay, today's people saw you you go way in on
our Instagram page the hit Strive with medi and PJ.
Speaker 4 (38:05):
What's happened to you now? Mate?
Speaker 6 (38:06):
I was walking down the street.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
I went to get lunch earlier today and I was
walking down the street with my phone and I just
absent mindedly got out my phone and I opened up TikTok.
And TikTok is just one of these like silly apps
that just gets you looked in. And next thing I know,
I'm walking down the street watching these videos. But I
didn't have headphones in, and all of a sudden, I realized,
(38:31):
I'm just watching these TikTok videos out loud for everyone
to hear walking down the street.
Speaker 4 (38:37):
I do that all the time.
Speaker 3 (38:38):
I know I have TikTok, I know you doing, and
I've told you off for this in the past, and
now I'm one of you.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
Thank you. It was only a matter of jure.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
So I wanted to know that is this actually really
bad or are we all kind of guilty of this?
In the modern age? Do you listen to things like
music or clips, YouTube video maybe on your phone without headphones?
Speaker 4 (39:03):
I reckon it's fine.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I'm going to put it out there and say it
is okay, but I would love to know the general consensus.
So just chext through now, yes or no, it's okay
to listen to things on your phone without headphones.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ, the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 6 (39:23):
The People's Poll, The.

Speaker 7 (39:27):
The People's Pole.
Speaker 4 (39:28):
Thank you for weighing in on our Instagram page The
Heads Drive with Meddy in PJ.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Today's question is if you're watching something on your phone
or if you're consuming something that makes a noise, do
you need to wear headphones when listening to that? Or
is it really road playing things loudly out of your phone?
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Yeah? I will say it's never been something I've enjoyed
in other people, but today I have to admit I
did comet this in and I started watching some tik
tok videos without my headphones.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I never use headphones. I'm so bad on the text mash.
A lot of people think, no, it's just straight up roads. No,
you're just walking versions of the people who drive with
their stereos playing loud guilty.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Yeah, it's actually closer than I thought though, if I
go by the overall poll. So yeah, we asked the
question listening to something with your on your phone without headphones.
Fifty nine percent of people said no, but forty one
percent said it's actually okay, So it was a lot
closer than I thought.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Okay, interesting, Well, thank you very much after getting in touch.
If you've got any suggestions for tomorrow's People's Pole, you
can text them through to four four eight seven.

The Hits Drive with Maddy and p J. Thanks to
chimis Wee House, the Real House of Fragrances.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And on that.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hi, and welcome to the podcast. Very good to have
you back me friend.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
It's so nice to see you.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Poor Siah.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I think she melted down into a puddle of anxiety
last time.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
Just so different awkward things. If you listen to the podcast,
I will have.
Speaker 6 (00:27):
To go back and listen to it.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Don't, don't, don't.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I was like the most of the show, He's absolutely
fine and it's just easy to dwell on a moment.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
I was trying to I was trying to channel you,
and I was going, hmmm, you don't need to say
to everything.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And I was like, oh god, I think Sarah, I
think that's what read to get rid of me because
it came came out side of the show and like
was like nice.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
He was like just a.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Ginol ear chick for you. Yeah, so nice. And then
there was another right where she did it. It's just like.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
And then you overthink it, right, It's like those crackses
can be huge. I remember when I first started doing
live crosses on the TV. I would go up, I
would bob up, and down on my toes.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
And sometimes like it will get so bad that if
they were, if the cameraman hadn't framed it properly, my
head would like go down out of the frame so eventually,
because you know, you know it about yourself. But if
it's the cracks, if it's a crack, like saying, you
can't stop it, like it's just so cracks.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
I was always told it was a crutch, cruck, I
think both of them.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, maybe you're right.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I'm thinking about like on here, we used to always
get told it was a crutch, was.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Cru Yeah, you're right, cracks is the wrong word.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
But no, but a crutch is a long stick or
the crotch of a body or uses unconsciously.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
They are usually not needed and don't end.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
And a CRUs is the most important point of an
issue anyway, the crutch. Once it's a crutch, it's hard
to get rid of it. So then one of the
one of the cameramen at tvnz E, because they have
sand bags that they put to like way down like
light lighting equipments or lighting, he got one of the
(02:35):
sand bags and literally put it on my feet at
the start of one of my crosses so that it
was so heavy that I couldn't actually lift my feet,
and honestly it stopped. I don't I stopped. Dominated Did
you have to do that like a few just just
just so that my brain could like get used to
not doing it anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
That becomes your default behavior. I used to spit in
my collar at skill. My grandma you had to used
to us, had to put that stop it nail biting
stuff on their.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, it's just weird, is it not? Yeah, Like at
least mine's just like a little movement. You were like
actually actively choosing to spit into your collar.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Only when I saw people that I didn't want to
turn into.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
I think that's a different issue than a crutch, to
be honest.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, I think we're going yeah, yeah, it's we don't.
We don't have the time to.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Comprehensively cover the issues going on to my brain as
a child.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Been a big day.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
We cross live to the U we say, we cross
live to the Melbourne Cup and the show. And you've
also got another podcast to record and you've been traveling
all day. So look, we're going to keep this very
brief tonight, but we'll come back with a real hearty
in trophy. So maybe we'll do like a little special
Q and A or something. You know what I was
saying us anything?

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yes, medice or a personalized plate and was very confused. A.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Well, it's meaning.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Plus, we had a very soucy group therapy issue this week.
It was about informing someone that their partner used to
be a trader.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
What do you do it?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Biggie? It's a biggie. What do you do?
Speaker 4 (05:09):
All of that coming up and more. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
And the podcast.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Can I please have some Chariots of Fire music. Here
we go.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
You just wanted to set the scene, all right, You
got three minutes to talk about running and your time.
Speaker 8 (05:35):
Now.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
So I have made it my whole personality this year,
and I do apologize for it. But you and I
started training for the half marathon and which we did
in May.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Correct and I stopped and you kept going.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Usually I'm so lazy and not at all organized.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
As I said, you can be addicted to far worse things.
Speaker 6 (05:58):
That is true.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
That is true, but it's something sparked. Look listen to me,
I sound like Tony Robins. Something sparked in me that day, PJ.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Just turn the music down of it serious contents.
Speaker 6 (06:09):
Now I need it.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I need the intense intensity. There's something sparked to me
that day, PJ. And I've continued my running journey ever since.
I did injure myself recently with my calf muscle was
not great, so I wasn't sure if I was going
to be able to run the half marathon and aland
over the weekend. But I thought, buger it. I'm going
to give it a go and just try him a best.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
That's all.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I can do, so shaved my leg. I taped myself up.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Question.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Sorry, I don't mean to introduce, but when you shave
one leg, does that mean you have to match it
on the others.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I haven't matched it, so I got one unshaved leap.
How long will it take me to regrow my hairs
on my legs?
Speaker 4 (06:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
For me, could take a while, and it'll take a while
to get back to the bush that it was.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Really yeah, i'd even it.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Up, mate, I would absolutely shave the other one. You're
going to feel lopsided.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
And I just tell you something. So I did. I shaved.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
I literally just got the clippers and I shaved the
back of my calf because that's why I was going
to put the the athletic tape on. So I didn't
shave the whole thing, but the bit that I did shave.
I went and showed Ryan and he went, oh something
about it. He said, calves look really good, so maybe
it could be a thing.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
It makes everything look a little shiny, you know, you
really see your true skin truly.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
So I got over to the half marathon started in
Devenport and on Auckland's north shore. So I had to
catch the fury over in the morning, and I got
over the end, and then I was stretching. I did,
at the very last minute decide that I needed to go.
I think I needed I needed a nervous little number two.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
So I did a coffee, gone straight through.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
Have a coffee.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
That'll get you.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, And I thought, well, better here than halfway long.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
It's true. I mean, you hear those horror stories.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
I've seen the photos. Yeah, yeah, yeah, those photos will
stay with you forever.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
So so I thought I've got to go. But then,
of course the line was so long that I was
like sitting on the toilet and I looked at my
watch and I went, oh my god, it's about to start.
So I had to quickly get out of the bathroom
and then run. I know, I had to run to
the start line. So I'd already like started, no, i'd finished,
(08:28):
I'd finished, but I had to run to.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
The start line.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
It's right, you're ready to go.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Yeah, But it meant I ended up running an extra
like five hundred meters. Oh come, well maybe not five
hundred meters.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
But tell everyone your overall time. I'm so proud of you.
This is amazing.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Think you. So I've gone shye, now I.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Got it here, get the Chariots of five music back.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I got a personal best time and I ran the
half marathon in one hour thirty one, which I'm very
proud of.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Although you've been a bit that you're a minute off.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
One thirty, weren't you. Wow, it's really like six seconds
off one thirty to be fear.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
But now I've got a new goal. I've got a
new goal.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
So which your new goal? Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
One thirty? Yeah, right listening, PJ. We're very proud of you.
Thank you one here at the hats.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
H Q, thank you many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
So I played Hostess with the Most Is last night, Matthew.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Now this is this This is for someone that was
coming up and bringing friends.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, And to be honest, I was quite nervous because
it was the very talented guy who built our house
and poured so much love, time and effort, blood, sweat
and tears went into that, and.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You were worried that you'd left the house too, missy,
and he was going.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
To be disciplined.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I was just worried because we just hasn't twenty twenty one,
and I was worried he'd be.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Like, whoa this hand.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
He was also a couple of friends with them as well.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yes, there was a party of three. So we took
it upon ourselves to you know, put a bit of
a feast on. And I decided to make a vegan
curry because one of the guests was vegan, and I
do love a vegan curry. So I made that, and
then I check it on the side because otherwise my
farmer husband, where's the mood, where's the meat?
Speaker 4 (10:24):
I had to have a meat option.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Oh my god, seriously, honestly, he paddics and so they
came over.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
But I when I was cooking it earlier in.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
The day, I didn't realize how much to leave makes
some butter. And then when I was tasting it later,
I was like, oh, this is pretty hot. So I
poured in another turn of coconut crey and honey, and
I thought I'd mellowed it out. Maddie literally whole meal everywhere.
I was doing that thing when they're trying to v
for light and like they're.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Dying and they're like, oh, it's really good. It's really good.
Speaker 7 (10:58):
Any more water.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
It's got a bit of a kick to it, a
bit of a kick.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Like I was getting out yoga from the fridge and
asked dowsing everyone's plate, and I was still like, ah,
and usually my mom loves a carry because my mom
was there too, and.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
She's like, but I think I'm just gonna have to
put this to the side. I don't think I can
get through it.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Can I just say this is on the fault of
a chili flake, because I'm swear to God, you can
do a tiny, tiny amount one time and it's way
too much. You can douse your meal and chili flakes
the next and you don't even you don't even taste it.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
They're far more potent, I think than the regular chili.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
You just don't even know what you're gonna get. Son't.
But what I found really interesting with the stay is
the reason they were actually here was for the daughter to.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Go and set her drives license. And I was like, what,
so wait, you guys have come from Nelson, from Nelson Tarcica.
Actually yeah. Two.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
The worded upper to set the test because apparently there's
huge waiting lines around the country and it can take
a long time to be able to actually book in
and be able to set your license and only think
there was available.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Ability and masterday.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yeah, but crossing the islands like crossing the cook straight
to set your driver's license.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
It said they got here last night, they're back tomorrow.
I was like, jeepers, that's a that's quick trip for
a little test and no pressure like you've got, you know,
two people coming up in the car with you.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
Really hope that you passed. So I hope she does.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
But it did get me thinking, how far did you
have to travel for an appointment or a meeting? I'll
eight hundred the hat so you can text four four
eight seven. And I do believe there's someone in our
office who lives in Auckland and will only get a
car service to and Todunger, So every time her car
is due.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
She just jumps in the car and goes what two
ish three hours? Maybe I'll wait hundred the hats. What
about you?
Speaker 1 (13:00):
How far have you traveled for one appointment? We'll take
your calls next.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
May. J Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
The Heads, and we're talking how farre you traveled for
an appointment or a meeting. We had some guests at
our house last night and they had traveled from Tarkaka
near Nelson to the whited Upper for the girl to
sit her driver's license, which is probably.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
She really smart.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
I haven't actually looked into the wait times that people
can have in certain regions, but apparently it was the
quickest way of getting her in.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
And I do remember being a teenager and there was
more cain, you're so keen if you have to wait
even a few weeks, you're getting antsy.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Especially coming up to New Year. Drive may want the freedom.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
So we wanted to know how far have you traveled
for a one off appointment? Amanda is joining us high
Amanda good and.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (14:04):
So?
Speaker 9 (14:05):
Yeah, I worked for a company in Dunedin and the
company that I worked for were updating their website and
they had one of their franchises. We're having issues getting
all this stuff together at one time so that they
could hire a local photographer to get in. So they
paid me to fly from Dunedin to Napier Photos and
(14:27):
go back again to.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Take six photos. You flow all the way from to
Napier from Dunedin.
Speaker 9 (14:35):
I did work waiting for the staff to come in
and out.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Ye at least they paid you as well, but.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
You'd feel you'd feel pressure, Amanda, those six photos that
better be better, be good. Yeah, you wouldn't want to
have your friend. You wouldn't want to have your thumb
over the camera or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
That always happens, and sent him into time. Just thumb
fifty percent of the picture. Allie is joining us. Oh right,
hundred the hats.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Hello, Hello, how are you very well? How far did
you travel for an appointment?
Speaker 10 (15:13):
I drove five hours to get a tarmacle done and
then the artists ghosted me, and three years later I
still haven't had it done.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Oh that's so Rose. Could you find any connections to
the artist?
Speaker 10 (15:25):
I went to high school with them, so I actually
knew him personally. He just didn't reply to any messages
on any social media or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's a big Five hours in the car is a
long way as well.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
There's some serious guys thing. Did you so you never
ended up getting the tarmacle?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
No?
Speaker 10 (15:40):
I never got it done. I still yet to get
it done.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Well, maybe if there's an artist out there right now.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And don't you do it, don't you dear ghost OWI
don't you dear?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Don't you dear hey, Alie that you recall we've got
to give us Bee House Prize coming your way.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Someone said they traveled all the way to Canberra for
a ten minute appointment for a new passport because she
the Belgian and there's no Belgian embassy in New Zealand
and the closest one was Canberras. They had to fly
all the way there ten minutes and.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Surely you'd make a weekend of it.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yeah, you'd hope, Joss.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
Maybe the podcast.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Personalized plates are a bit weird sometimes.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I mean, look, I love that someone is passionate enough
about a subject to put it on a plate that
they permanently have to drive around with that declares to
the world that thing, Like why a commitment?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
It's a huge commits. Sometimes I think they're great. Sometimes
I go what are you doing? And I had I
had what are you doing moment in the car. Today
We're driving along the motorway and the car in front
of us had the number plate I'm going to spell
it out for you, m R S t A B
missus t A B. Well, I was like, is it
(17:02):
missus t A B? Or is it mister stab.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Oh wow, mister stab or B Or was it missus AB?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I think that's a stretch so at first, so I thought, okay,
maybe it is a Maybe it's a woman who doesn't
mind a little flutter at the you know, at the race,
at the pot or at the race or something.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Then I drove alongside and.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
It was an older gentleman, and so then.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
I thought, mister stab. What hang on?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Maybe he works in botox, or he's like a mister stab,
or he's an acupuncturist. Because because my friend who name's Abby,
she calls herself stabby because she's an acupucturress, and she
calls like stab in your face stabbing.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
But if you had a personalized plate for your business,
wouldn't your car explain what the business was so that
the number plate isn't just mister step because away you
look like a psychopaed driving on the or motorway.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Can someone please give clarity to this?
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Do you want to know maybe you personally know mister
stab or you know what, Maybe there's some I don't know,
alternate meaning for it.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
I think this needs to be a prerequisite if you
were ordering a personalized plate, you have to be forced
to explain the number plates so that I can then
go online and look up why you are mister stabbed
driving your car on the Aukland Motorway.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Please text to hear any inscience to form.
Speaker 7 (18:36):
Maddy ANDPJ Madi in PJ the Podcast The Heads inpj's
group therapy.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
In the meantime, it is time to put our feet up,
sit down on the chaise lounge, take a collective deep
breath and find out this week's dilemma.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
This has coming from one of our listeners who sees, Honey, MPJ,
I need some advice on a tricky situation. My boyfriend
and I have been together for two years and everything's
been great. However, his friend is now dating my ex.
Here's the catch. My ex cheated on me repeatedly, and
(19:16):
I eventually left him because of it. I know people
can change, and maybe my ex is treating my boyfriend's
friend differently, but part of me feels it's only a
matter of time before he does the same thing to her.
My boyfriend thinks I should stay out of it and
let her find out on her own if he hasn't changed,
but I feel guilty not giving her.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
A heads up. So what should I do?
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Am I overstepping by telling her about his history with me?
Or would it be wrong to keep this information to
myself and risk her getting hurt the same way.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Oh my god, I'm actually torn on this one because
initially I was like, yeah, tell her, you know, tell
her she deserves to know.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
But actually, maybe this.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Guy has changed his ways, maybe a short time, and
maybe he deserves a fresh slate possibly, And who is
she to go in and and you know, sabotage any
chance of that relationship flourishing, because every relationship is different,
and he could have been going through a really tough.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Time at that period.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Although at the same time, it'd also be so tempted
to just like, I don't know, I don't know. It
depends how close she is with her boyfriend's friend as well,
like how close is this friendship?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Well, I think they're pretty they're pretty good friends. So
the boyfriend is her boyfriend is obviously friends with this
other woman, and the woman is now dated dating her
ex boyfriend Ryan. My husband always says, not my circus,
not my monkeys, as in, it's just not my problem,
you know, stay out of it. But I don't know.
(20:54):
I feel like if you have information, even if you
say it in a way of hey, I know, people
can change. Yeah, but I just need you to know
that this happened to me, so that you have the information.
I'm not saying I think he's going to do it.
I'm not saying I think.
Speaker 6 (21:12):
You should leave him.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
I just need you to have the information so that
you are fully aware.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
I think that's a good diplomatic solution. That's somewhere in between. Yeah,
you're not telling her what to do. You're passing on
the information and then she can make up her mind
from there what to do with that.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
Oh, it's a tricky one.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What do you think New Zealand Minny and I are
obviously a little bit flaky here. It's a really different
situation to be and maybe you've been in a similar one.
But do you think this woman needs to tell her
boyfriend's friend who is now dating her ex who cheated
on her? Does she need to let the cat out
of the bag and let her know what he's truly like,
(21:53):
or let bygones be bygones and let her just go on?
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Very well?
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Oh, eight hundred the Hits To get in touch, you
can text through four four eight seven.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
Maddy ANDPJ. Mady and Pj, the podcast The Hits, Many
and pj's group therapy.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
All right, let's all ruminate over this week's dilemma. Many
can you please rehash?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
My boyfriend and I have been together for two years
and everything's been great. However, his best friend is now
dating my ex. Here's the catch. My ex cheated on
me repeatedly, and I eventually left him because of it.
I know people can change, and maybe my ex is
treating my boyfriend's best friend differently, but part of me
feels it's only a matter of time before he does
(22:42):
the same thing to her. My boyfriend thinks I should
stay out of it and let her find out on
her own if he hasn't changed, but I feel guilty
not giving her heads up. So what should I do?
Am I overstepping by telling her about his history with me?
Or would it be wrong to keep this information to
myself and risk her getting hurt the same way.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
How would you feel if you were the girl who's
dating the X and then you find out down the
track that actually this girl had been jetting on and
she shares the information, you can she be gutted?
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Trying to think of it in a flick way.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
I think you would be gutted, But I guess on
the flip side, if she does tell this girl, that
also puts a little bit of a wedge potentially between them.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Yes, and there's a tricky one.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
A lot of people are texting and though quite passionately
four four eight seven, don't get involved. You will look
like the bad one. Another one said stay out of it. Yes,
another one said leave it alone. Different lives, different people.
Let's go to Kirston on oh eight hundred the hats Hi, Kirstin,
you wanted to weigh in on this week's group therapy.
Speaker 11 (23:43):
Hello, yes, I agree, stay out.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
Of it, stay out of it?
Speaker 5 (23:49):
Have you?
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Yep?
Speaker 6 (23:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Why stay out? Why do you think she should stay
out of it?
Speaker 11 (23:55):
So it happened with me with a friend of mine,
best friend for my whole life, and I told her
and she stopped talking to me for about.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Three or four years.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
She ended up marrying the guys. Wow, oh, different relationships
that Yeah, stay out of it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yeah, that's because instantly you know, she could get very,
very defensive totally, and I think you do have to
assess and be prepared that it could damage your friendship.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yeah, and look, that's a horrible thing. Being cheated on
is awful and you don't. You never wish that on anyone.
But also people do change and people grow up, and
relationships are different, you know, from one person to another
as well.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Rosie wants to weigh in. Hats hi, Rosie, what are
your thoughts?
Speaker 12 (24:44):
Hi, I've got similar thoughts to everyone else, so I'm
not getting too and getting in the middle of it.
But this ex boyfriend is now in the circle of
friendship groups and you're close enough to have conversations and
social settings and maybe just brush it past him and ask,
you know, have you opened up? Yeah, your new girlfriend
(25:08):
about the past, and is she aware, just so that
like at least she then knows, Okay, she doesn't know, Yeah,
I had to know. He has told her, And that's good.
He's learnt and he's grown and he's being vulnerable.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
That's true.
Speaker 12 (25:24):
If you're going to be a part of grow and
move on, Like I don't think that going straight to
the girlfriend and sharing that information as well.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
It's a really good it's a really good idea. Put
the ball in his court because it's not necessarily your
I guess it is part of your story to tell.
But also if you put it in his court and say, hey,
I think you should probably let her know. I don't
you know, I'm staying out of your relationship.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But ye, I mean yeah, then he really opens up
from the get go. I've stuffed up, I've done this.
I'm not going to do that with you. Although someone
texts and something wants are at always a rat I'd
be concerned.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
About your men hanging out with them. I don't know.
I think I think maybe going to the guy.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
It's a smart idea. No, I think that's a smart idea.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
I think that's the smartest idea. But ultimately go from there.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
I think ultimately what most people have said is stay
out of it. Not your story, not your business.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
And still to come, we're gonna god blah. Still, you're right.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Do you need me to pick up how they're going
get distressed?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
When I know politics is coming over remart across Live
to the States, where political correspondent Jack Taim is on
the ground. He has been at a Kamala Harris rally,
Lady Gaga.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Ricky Martin.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
They're performing and we're going to get the vibe of
what it's like on the ground in the USA.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Coming up inside the next twenty minutes.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Hey, I have I was away yesterday. We had a
bit of a family thing we had to go to
with Ryan's side of the family, and we were in
New Plymouth. I love New Plymouth.
Speaker 6 (27:07):
It's such a great little person you have.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
You've talked about it a lot, and I must say,
I don't know if you're doing some secret ambassat isshit something,
but you have sold me on taking a trip to Taranaki.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
It's so great. Anyway, we were down there and we
were hanging out with a bunch of his family, including
some of his cousins, and my god, that's so funny.
But one of them is kind of is funny, but
almost unexpectedly funny, Like I don't really don't think she
means to be funny, but she.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
Just that's the best kind of funny.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Yeah, And we were talking and I can't even remember
how it came up. She must have been telling us
about a flight she was catching recently or something, and
she said, she said to me, she was telling the
story about her pilot, who was obviously a female, And
she goes, what's the what's the word you know for
a female pilot?
Speaker 6 (27:56):
A pilot, and I went, you a kid.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Stop.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
She just I don't know whether she truly thought that
there was a name for a female pilot or whether
she just had this absolute brain from a pilot.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
I mean, I get it. I totally get it. Like
a cute little pilot, kind of feminine about it.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
That's also a little patronized.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Female pilot were bad, But she didn't mean it to be.
It was funny and we were all in her h
stere x and I just looked at her and I
was like, you were never living this down. This is
going to haunt you until you're dying days. We are
all going to be sitting around for years to come
(28:47):
talking about the time that you thought a female pilot
was called a pilot.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
That saysn't as extreme.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
But when we went camping the other day and we
were at a camp Grandja, guys, have you been to
the evolution block yet?
Speaker 3 (29:00):
The evolution blot?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
He goes, yeah, the evolution block, you can go Sharon toilet.
I was like, babe, do you many ablutions? Then the
pennie dropped and he was like, that makes so much more.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I've got one about my husband. Then he was he
was once reading a book and he turned to me
and he goes, who would have a name like E
one E W A M. And I went, I think
that's you and babe.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Oh wait one hundred that hats And it doesn't have
to be a faux pa with your words. It could
be anything that you haven't been able to live down?
Was this something stupid you did in your youth? And
it always comes back.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
Up in conversation.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
The podcast, and we want to know the moment you
have never been able to live down? Oh wait, one
hundred hats to join the show. They are coming through

Speaker 13 (31:14):
We got talking in conversation about one of the towns
in christ Church called eleven Am, and I ages couldn't
figure out what he was talking about until we saw
a street sign and he said that place, and I went,
you're talking about Ilum. I'm still written on the sign
eleven Am.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
I used to live on Island Road. I particularly enjoy
that reference.
Speaker 11 (31:39):
Wouldn't get past it.
Speaker 13 (31:40):
I was like, did you really think it was eleven Am?
Speaker 6 (31:43):
He was, It was brilliant.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Someone teachs in the phone as I had obviously gotten
wheat or something peage, and they said, I put my

schooled by age.
Speaker 6 (32:39):
So good.
Speaker 7 (32:42):
Many, MPJ Many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
The Heads, and we're about to cross live to the
States where political correspondent Jack Tame is on the ground.
It was supposed to be the end of the Kamala
the Kamala Harris rally. It was supposed to have wrapped
up by now, but apparently she's just got on stage.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
Jack is joining us now, Hijack.
Speaker 8 (33:04):
Hey, you call me a political correspondent, That's not what
I'm here to discuss. I'm here to discuss Ricky.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
Martin's has he got it.
Speaker 8 (33:13):
Like political line on me? P Jacob, We've had Ricky
Martin we've had beat Joe and we've had Lady Gaga
here this evening, and you want to talk politics? Are
you kidding me?
Speaker 12 (33:23):
All right?
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Okay, so so big questions. First, Jack, what song did
he perform?
Speaker 8 (33:28):
Well, okay, three guesses.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
He's got he's got to do live in the video.
He could do, he could do she.
Speaker 8 (33:35):
Bangs, he he he came out, and first of all,
he did a Spanish language song because here in Pennsylvania
trying to like rile up all of the Puerto Rican voters,
and he, of course is perto ricans, the Spanish language song.
So we were kind of like politely boffing along to that.
You know, they're not really following it, although it was
a good opportunity for me to whip out my fourth
form Spanish.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Multilingual God, I mean number there is, Jack, Okay, between
the two of you, we don't need to do.
Speaker 8 (34:05):
After that, he did live in Levita Loca and it
was was amazing. And then his third song, he did
that one, La Hella, that one, Yes, I remember.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Jackie sod.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
There.
Speaker 8 (34:19):
Honestly it was. It was really good. It was really impressive,
and he had like the whole backup dancer thing. The
thing about Ricky Martin is that guy looks great. He's
so like he is really like, you know, he could
have recent on his laurels, but he was absolutely he
is just you know what, he's just kept himself right there.
And I love it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I love how you're literally in the new politics. You
know that you've got a professional cross to do with
the news and about this is just your fluffy little
patch where you can tell us.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
Really this is the thing some Madella was not asking
Jack Tame about Recky Martin's performance, so this is where
he gets to talk about it. But we do need
to talk about the politics side as well, Jack, because
this is this is such it's a crazy election. What
is it actually like over there? Can you kind of
sum up the vibe?
Speaker 8 (35:05):
I would say that the vibe is not good, no vibe,
just in that it's like it's so contentious and America
has such a partisan and tribal political culture. It's your
team versus my team, and there's not a lot of
like middle ground where people are kind of agreeing on stuff. Now,
I think the thing that distinguishes this election from the
(35:25):
last three US elections that I've covered, Yep, it's my
fourthn't worry about that. And I thinks the thing that
distinguishes is the gender split. So there's like a sixteen
or seventeen point difference between men and women when it
comes to supporting Kamala Harris and supporting Donald Trump. So
guys love Donald Trump, don't like Kamala Harris. Women really
(35:45):
like Kamala Harris don't like Donald Trump. And like I
just I always think, like, how many really awkward dinner
table conversations must be around America right now because it's
a massive, massive factor.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
Yeah, I mean last felt so polarized. Do you think
people are saying I to eye at all this time?
Like more so like from Afar. I want to believe
that that's true, people finding some common ground amongst it all.
Speaker 8 (36:12):
Nah, not at all?
Speaker 9 (36:14):
Really?
Speaker 8 (36:15):
Why actually just think that people like are living in
different realities now. And I say that I was talking
to her. I was talking to a friend a couple
of weeks ago who over here, who's a really keen
Trump supporter and he's a really really close friend of mine.
And I sat down with him and I was just like,
do you think the last election was stolen? There's no
evidence that it's been stolen all of the courts about
all of Donald Trump's cases, and he was like, yeah,
(36:37):
I think it was. I think it was a corrupt election.
And I was like, man, we're just living in different information. Yeah,
It's like it's like the way he sees the world
now is actually different to the way I see the world.
And you know, I guess you've got to hope that
that people can find a way to move forward, and
you know that things that there's not civil unrest, it's
(36:57):
not violent or anything like that after tomorrow, But yes,
to feel that optimistic. Okay, bye, Recky Martin.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
Well, thank god for Ricky Martin really quickly, Jack, because
we've got to go.
Speaker 6 (37:07):
You can we predict this thing at all?
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Tomorrow? Tomorrow's the election, of course. Do you have any
sense of where this is heading?
Speaker 8 (37:14):
Okay, I don't think anyone knows for sure, and anyone
who says they do is lie. I will say this.
At the start of this year, I said in three
places publicly that I thought neither Joe Biden or Donald
Trump would be the next plut in the United States.
So I'm going to stick with my guns and say that. Yep,
maybe Carmela.
Speaker 12 (37:30):
Can pull this off.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Well, good luck Jack, and good luck with your professional
cross in about twenty minutes.
Speaker 4 (37:36):
How many recky mentions will you draw up? Do you reckon?
Speaker 8 (37:40):
I probably won't mention that, but where I see it
looks really good.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Thanks so much and all the best with the rest
of your time over there.
Speaker 8 (37:48):
Oh good guys, Thank you many and PJ.
Speaker 7 (37:51):

our Instagram page the hit Strive with medi and PJ.
Speaker 4 (38:05):
What's happened to you now? Mate?
Speaker 6 (38:06):
I was walking down the street.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
I went to get lunch earlier today and I was
walking down the street with my phone and I just
absent mindedly got out my phone and I opened up TikTok.
And TikTok is just one of these like silly apps
that just gets you looked in. And next thing I know,
I'm walking down the street watching these videos. But I
didn't have headphones in, and all of a sudden, I realized,
(38:31):
I'm just watching these TikTok videos out loud for everyone
to hear walking down the street.
Speaker 4 (38:37):
I do that all the time.
Speaker 3 (38:38):
I know I have TikTok, I know you doing, and
I've told you off for this in the past, and
now I'm one of you.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
Thank you. It was only a matter of jure.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
So I wanted to know that is this actually really
bad or are we all kind of guilty of this?
In the modern age? Do you listen to things like
music or clips, YouTube video maybe on your phone without headphones?
Speaker 4 (39:03):
I reckon it's fine.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I'm going to put it out there and say it
is okay, but I would love to know the general consensus.
So just chext through now, yes or no, it's okay
to listen to things on your phone without headphones.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ, the podcast The Heads.

The People's Pole.
Speaker 4 (39:28):
Thank you for weighing in on our Instagram page The
Heads Drive with Meddy in PJ.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Today's question is if you're watching something on your phone
or if you're consuming something that makes a noise, do
you need to wear headphones when listening to that? Or
is it really road playing things loudly out of your phone?
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Yeah? I will say it's never been something I've enjoyed
in other people, but today I have to admit I
did comet this in and I started watching some tik
tok videos without my headphones.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I never use headphones. I'm so bad on the text mash.
A lot of people think, no, it's just straight up roads. No,
you're just walking versions of the people who drive with
their stereos playing loud guilty.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Yeah, it's actually closer than I thought though, if I
go by the overall poll. So yeah, we asked the
question listening to something with your on your phone without headphones.
Fifty nine percent of people said no, but forty one
percent said it's actually okay, So it was a lot
closer than I thought.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Okay, interesting, Well, thank you very much after getting in touch.
If you've got any suggestions for tomorrow's People's Pole, you
can text them through to four four eight seven.
