Time of the year. When are you going to get
your Christmas tree up?

put on upper Christmas tree. What's the calendar, like, Sunday
the first? Ye, Sunday the first, so that might be
us actually have a Sunday. I might make a nice
dinner we'll put on.
Speaker 2 (01:19):

it's so make it pretty.

Yeah, have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You've seen her?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Like, isn't it all? It's so terriffy when someone you
know so well from those iconic like movies looks totally different.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's just I read an amazing story when they were
filming Matilda. Her mom, her mum got really sick and
was like terminal, and so she wasn't going to be
able to see like she They were like, she's not
going to make it to see the film. So Danny DeVito,
who directed the movie, got like a rough copy of
(03:44):
it and brought it into the hospital so that Marra
Wilson's mom could watch Matilda. Isn't that beautiful?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Oh my god, Miss Honey, Miss Honey, what honey makes
me emotional?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's so beautiful.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
We all wanted like, in fact, I feel like your
head and miss Honey at some point in our lives.
Like a teacher, yes, such a nurturing teacher.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I think mine was missus Best who we meet in Wellington. Yes,
she was awesome.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I had a couple of great teachers. One was a
guy called mister Pentecost, who that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Was the whole one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
No, no, no, sorry, that's no just receipt to mister Pentecost.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
But no, that's not It's just lovely.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
That's not the one that I was talking about, though.
That was the teacher. Mister Pentecost was always the Mister
Pinocost was my primary school teacher, and he just made
learning fun. I just remember, yeah, and everyone wanted to
be in his class, like desperately.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That was the same as mister Hanson at high school.
He called me man child, which it was not derogatory.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
It was fun.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
We're still like we still chair, like I'm saying about
about and stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
He's so funny.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Did BJ speaking of teachers? Did be j end up
going to the fiftieth fiftieth?
Speaker 7 (04:55):

had a great night.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think he's in a band anyway. Coming up the.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Podcast, we talk about what did you try and get
your partner into that didn't fly? We have a group
therapy and your crazy coincidence stories.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
All of that and more coming up. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
I think yesterday was the most exciting day of your
adult life.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
No comedie, you're going to ask me to say.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Absolutely, Screw the weddings, screwed starting this new job, Screw
wedding trees of Island. Last night he had to.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Chudge to Chuck and celebrity treasure.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
I had to last night. I went to the Wicked
movie premiere. I said to you, I think this is
the most excited I've ever been for a movie. And
so that means I was going in with very very
high expectations.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
It's risky.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
I always just try and knock down my expectations alert
or just so that it's less likely to be disappointed.
Like even if I'm really excited, I'll just try and
like have some negative self talk, like, nah, I won't
be as good as you think it's going to be.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yeah, I didn't do that. So here's the thing I love. Like,
I love musicals, and Wacked especially is high, high, high
up there in terms of musicals that I love. I
also am obsessed with Ariana Grande, so it's just a
triple women. Like all these things were aligning for it
to be a very very special movie for me, and
(06:31):
I went along with my husband Ryan, and this movie
is one of the most incredible movies I've ever seen
in my life. It really really it lived up to
exceeded heightened expectations. It was incredible.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The fact that it even mats for expectations speaks volumes
because you had serious.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
But there's something that happens. And I don't know if
you've ever done this, but you know you have like
maybe a movie that you used to watch a lot
as a kid, or you grew up on a movie
that you loved, and then you find out that someone
in your life, whether it be a friend or like
a sibling or maybe a partner later in life, has
never seen the movie, yes, and you say you've never
(07:17):
seen you know, you've never seen the movie. You've never
seen bring it on before, You've never seen Miscongeniality. And
then you said, we're putting it on. We're putting it on,
and you sit on the couch. But then what happens
is rather than watching the screen, rather than watching the movie,
all you do is you watch them yeah, and you hope,
like how that they love the movie as much as
(07:39):
you do. And so you got and then you go
watch this bit, watch this, this is good. Wait, no, wait,
you pay attention.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Just don't go to the don't go into toilet now,
trust me, you're not gonna work what a mess the
next ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Put your phone down because this is important. This is
a key plot point, and you're gonna need to pay
attention to this. So I was kind of like that
and wicked last night, even though it was a new
experience in terms of I'd never seen the movie before.
I didn't know you were.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
So passionate about all of it. You just loved it
and you wanted Ryan to be on the same wavele and.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
I knew the storyline, and so from the get go
I kind of just kept like glancing over at him,
going are you likeing it? And I'd be like, see this,
this is this guy's important. You're gonna what you need
to know who this guy is. And then what I
forgot was that Ryan famously does not like musicals. I
(08:28):
took him to Beauty and the Beast, the live action
Beauty and the Beast a few years ago, and he
turned to me at one point and said, is this
a musical?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
You should have given him the heads up.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
No, But but I actually did give him the heads up.
I said to him, just f yi, this is a musical.
But I kind of forgot how much he doesn't really
like musicals. And at one point during the very first song,
he turned to me and he goes, is there this
level of singing the whole way through? And I was like,
it's musical.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I can't describe how soul destroying it is sol destroying
when something you love so much is not loved on
that level by someone you love so much.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Like you just want them to get it, and they don't.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
They don't get it, and it is it's so hard
because you're like, I love you, you love me. We
are a great partnership. So surely you're going to love
the thing that I love. And it's not always the case.
It's not always the case.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Let's roll with this this afternoon, as this happened to you,
What did you try and get your partner into and
it just didn't It did not fly, It did not
work at backfired, and they hated it.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
What was that thing that you try to keep your
partner to equally love as much as you. You can
give us a call right now. Oh wait, hundred the
hits or text full flights.
Speaker 8 (09:54):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Podcast and Natty was very are key to have an
exclusive invite last night to go along to the Wicked
premiere which comes out in cinemas on Thursday, and actually
to celebrate that, we want to send you on the
wickedest trip ever to the Gold Coast. So that cuticle
is coming up inside the next ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
But it didn't go quite to plan.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
You took your lovely husband with you and you hoped
more than anything that he would love the movie as
much as you.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
And he turned to me during the very first song
of the movie, so minutes him, We're literally minutes it
and he said, is there singing like this the whole
way through? When I said it's a musical.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Well, that'll be the last time we talk him to
a music.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
It's a hard road when your partner doesn't love the
thing that you love.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Yeah, so we wanted to know when did you try
desperately to get your partner to love something as much
as you did?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Marcia is joining us?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Hi, Marcia, Hello, how are you?
Speaker 9 (10:53):
Hell?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Yeah, very well?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
What happened with you?
Speaker 7 (10:57):
My husband is a mart On runner and he loves Runnie.
He's been doing it for the last fourteen years, and
he always tried to bring me along. But I tried,
but I just twisted my ankle so many times, the hound.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Going, You're like, come it on by.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
That is just not for men.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
And I try, and I tried many times.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
I actually did a few.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
Five k's with him, but just I don't even try
anymore because I'm just scared that I'm gonna tweet my.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Look after.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
It's so much comment, I would say, so let's go
ahead of high Hannah, how are you?
Speaker 11 (11:44):
I'm good?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Thank you? How are you?
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Team good?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Very very well? So is this something you love or
something your partner loves?
Speaker 12 (11:52):
Something my partner loves, and he tried desperately to get
me and work. But I'm just absolutely not fishing for anyone.
Speaker 6 (11:59):
For you need think, Oh.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
It's literally fishing.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (12:04):
Yeah, it's not even like proper sea fishing. So we
don't go out on the boat. We just like go
to these like murky creeks and stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh my god, Hannah, I know my husband is such
a keen fisherman. And the way that he tries to
weave it into conversation to make it about how something
I'd love to do, how we can spend time by
the beach, how we can have wines while fishing. You know,
the way that he just tries to market it towards me.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
It's hilarious exactly.
Speaker 12 (12:33):
And as soon as we go out and get his
stuff done, there's always something in it for me, like
a nice drength for.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
So, is that is that what I needed to do
with Wicked last night? Did I just need to market
a bit better? Or you could sit in the dark
and eat poporn that would have got him, that would have.
Speaker 8 (12:49):
Gone mad and Mary and the podcast, that's.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
What a blessed life you're leading at the moment, page
You're absolutely glowing with your pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I don't like where this is going. It sounds like
you're sucking up to me.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
No, you're sucking up to me, not sucking up.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Are you scared of me?
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Am?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
I giving off scary vibes at the moment.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Well, you did come to me before the show and
you said these pregnancy hormones not quite like that, But
no I did. I did.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
It's mean. I just I have to remind myself that
they do going waves.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
And right now, the last twenty four hours, forty eight hours,
the most ridiculous things have been tacking me off, and
I've just found myself raging, and I have to remind
myself it's not me.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm like, hang on with this usually irritate me on grind.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
I guess no, but it's like the smallest inconveniences will
wundery up.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
And I'm not like a grumpy You're not at all.
You are not at all.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
But when I'm fiery, I can fire.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I've discovered well, bless you, but but bless you for
acknowledging it.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
It's healthy.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
You've got to acknowledge it.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And I acknowledge it's not me. It's not me.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
It's the hormones, it's the bloody thing. It's ride me.
So anyway, I was thinking about it because I thought,
what can I do, you know, like, what can I
do to help? And there's really not a lot that
I can do to help except potentially offer you a
platform with which to vent your frustrations openly and honestly
(14:30):
and get them out peage, because you are someone that
needs to You need to get the emotions out. You're
not someone that likes to hold things in.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Okay, this could get dangerous, and it could get long.
It could really it could end up going for a while.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Madie.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
I'm giving you a minute, a minute of pj's pregnancy
rage to get out whatever you want. You can. You
can vent and rage about whatever you would like to.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
I don't think I can tell you the things that
I actually raged about before the show, because.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I don't want to offend anymore. But have you got
a few things that potentially you could get off your
cheese right now, things that maybe are irritating you at
the moment.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
I'm sure yep, okay, yep, okay.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Here is Pj's pregnancy Rage. You've got one minute and
it starts now.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Okay, when you're clearly in a hurry, but the person
at the counter doesn't get the cue and they continue
to move at ten miles per hour, stretching out the
process as long as humanly possible. When it takes the
earcon still forever to actually turn cold. And we're in
the year twenty twenty four, how is technology working better?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Not working better? In cars?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
When they play budget covers of really good songs and
retails fully butchering the song.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
It's like the stork can only afford the t MO version.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
When you get sent a package and the packaging well
outweighs the items of the package, it is so bad
for the environment and just a straight up waste. Passive
aggressive emails where meetings could just be emails where people
say should of instead of should have, where people also
say specifically instead of specifically twenty seconds, Um.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
You the things that are on your mind? Now you
can't say out loud, right, okay, but do you feel
good and feel like you got really good?
Speaker 5 (16:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
I hate it when people won't really slow in front
of me. I'm one of those.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Ok sorry one, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
That was really therapeutic that you so much.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
May you feel so much better, because you know, I
hated one of these many ones with my mum before
the show, and I felt like kyl Is. You know,
sometimes you just have to artaiculate, verbalize, get it off
your chest, and then it's gone.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Anything else. If anyone else out there wants to add
anything to the Pregnancy Rage Hotline, you can teach them
through to four even Serious Theory once a week segment.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Maybe we should. Maybe other people can get involved to her.
You text through four for its even. What would you
like to add to the list?
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Mady J Many and PJ the podcast The Heads Many
and PJS Group Therapy.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Al Right, we do this on show every week. Your
time to get in touch with us. Tell us something
that's going on in your life you need help with,
and we'll do our best to dissect and shout advice.
We don't always give the best advice, but we get
New Zealand's Away in and they.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Do always great advice, great advice. This week's submission says, hey,
Madi Mpjane. I work in a pretty demanding job where
we're all expected to be fully focused during work hours. Recently,
I found out that one of my coworkers is running
a side hustle during office time, They're sneaking and work
for their online business, answering emails, updating social media, even
(17:35):
taking some calls, all while we're supposed to be on
the clock. Here's the catch. They are good at their
job and they do always meet their deadlines, so their
work doesn't seem to be suffering, but it feels unfair
since the rest of us are sticking to the rules
and pulling our weight. I'm torn. Do I report this
to my manager and risk creating tension with them and
(17:55):
maybe even the whole team, or should I mind my
own business since it's not really affecting their performance. Part
of me thinks that they're getting away with something they shouldn't.
But another part wonder is if i'd just be stirring
up unnecessary drama, what would you do?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Okay, I'm going to come out the gates with my
initial gut reaction.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
It just feels a bit anarchy to me. If it's not.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Impacting the quality of their work at work, then why
should it matter. I mean, you know, outside of work,
lots of people have things going on, whether it's relationships
or hobbies or you know, extracurricular activity.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Sus If it's not impacting your main crust, then go
for gold.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah, but your keyword there was outside of work and
this is inside of work. And I get that feeling
of on fairness, the sense of well, you're getting away
with something the rest of us aren't able to do,
you know, like we're all pulling our way and not
doing things that we shouldn't be doing within work hours.
And it does feel a little bit underhanded to be like,
(18:58):
I'm being paid and employed by these people to do
a job and I'm going to take that. I'm going
to take the purse a little.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Bit, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But also times bloody tough and people need, you know,
extra sure and come where they can get it so
if they can hustle and they can do it. And
I mean, look, you maybe look into your contract because
you know, like maybe if it's literally written in your
contract and it stipulates that you can't do this.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
But if not for gold, I reckon, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Well, and the trigues machine.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Is already starting to speake. Someone's already said, hick, no,
you can't do that at work. You're at work where
you should focus on your actual job, not a hobby
that pays.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
I would be really interested to see where the majority
of people land on this, because I do think it
will be very split. A lot of people go through
my business. If you're doing the work, it doesn't bother me,
like it doesn't impact on meny times are tough.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
People need to get creative.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
So okay, what are your thoughts on this week's group therapy?
Is it okay to do another side hustle while you're
at your main job and it's not impacting your main
work or is it will it long term?
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Long term? Potentially?
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Oh, eight hundred of hats to weigh in with your
thoughts for this week's group therapy.
Speaker 8 (20:15):
Maddy ANDPJ.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Many and PJS group Therapy.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
We haven't had a divided one like this and quite
some time.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I love it when people get quite haters or at
both ends of the debate. Now, Maddie, can you recap
this week's group therapy?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Dlimt.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Someone said, I work in a pretty demanding job where
we were all expected to be fully focused during work hours. Recently,
I found out that one of my co workers is
running a side hustle during office time, sneaking and work
for their online business, answering emails, updating social media, even
taking calls while we're supposed to be on the clock.
Here's the catch. They're really good at their job and
always meet their deadline, so their work doesn't seem to suffer,
(20:58):
but it does feel unfear So I'm torn. Do I
report this to my manager or should I mind my
own business? Since it's not affecting their performance.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
I said, I think if it's not impacting their main job,
then that's not your place to knak.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
And if it does.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Impact the work long term, then they're probably going to
self employe themselves and out themselves.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (21:22):
If that's your place to come in and dob and.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
You know a fellow college.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Yeah, although I said, they are taking the pistol a
little bit because it's company time, it's company resources, and yeah,
you're you're being paid to be there to do a job.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
All right, Let's see what Michelle has to say. One hundreds.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
I Michelle, Oh here, very well, what are you? What
do you reckon about the situation?
Speaker 11 (21:50):
Yeah, I'm with me. J Yeah, I mean, she can't
if she hasn't done anything like going on Facebook or
check the bend account or anything like that on time.
It would be very surprised. I go past the deils
a week sometimes, what are you looking at it? You know,
I'm just trying to find a prison, right.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Even the bosses online sometimes, So you're saying none of us,
none of us are totally guilt free.
Speaker 11 (22:17):
Yeah, exactly, So i'd let it right. And you know,
if they're doing it for hours on me, no, probably
a different story. But if it's only taking them five minutes, yeah,
I don't think it's an issue.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Yeah, Yeah, good point. Then, Michelle, thank you so much
for wang and let's go to Zarana. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Hello, I definitely would feel guilty, And can I just say, Michelle,
you wouldn't work for me? No, I just feel like
you're getting paid to do that one job.
Speaker 10 (22:49):
And I would just feel like guilty.
Speaker 11 (22:52):
I don't know, I just yeah, But do you know, like.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
These side hustles are coming more and more common because
for you know, households to make ends made.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Having to go above and beyond.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
So yes, if it's not impacting their main crust, I
don't know if that's an issue.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Yeah, but I think you can only you can only
take a side hustle on if you have the extra
time to be able to do it. That is the
whole point and purpose of a side hustle is it's
meant to be on the side of the job that
you do day and day out.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
But then I agree with Michelle's point though, like we
all was waste time at work in some capacity, whether
it is Facebook or shopping or whatever. So if you know,
like what's the difference, and if it's not impacting the
quality of your work, then I think go for goals.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
A lot of texts, a lot of texts coming in.
Someone said, don't be that person. It will label you
as an ARC regardless of what happens, and that reputation
will stick with you for as long as you work there.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh, someone said, my question would be are they using
company property, laptop or self and if so, then that
changes the scenario.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Cheers Team Chris.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Yeah, someone said, I think, so long as it doesn't
affect your work output or quality, then go for gold.
It's my view that a company pays you for the
work that you do, so as long as you're getting
what they pay for, why not. So maybe there's generally
where we land today. Page. I think a lot some
people are saying, yeah, sure they're taking their purse a
(24:23):
little bit, but in some ways, don't we all, you know,
a little bit bit?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Okay, that's a good resolution, I reckon for we meet
somewhere in the middle of this week. Have you've got
any text or any sorry dilemmas that you want us
to tackle next week? Text them through four full eight
seven and we could be technically a next week Tuesday,
next Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Next Tuesday.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Don't even know the day the podcast.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I fear. I fear that I'm getting a little old
for a number of reasons, but today specifically, it's to
do with the fact that I think I'm becoming a
neighborhood busybody.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Oh my god, are you a busybody in every facess
of your life?
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Yes? But Ryan caught me doing something the other day,
which is that I heard noises outside on the street
at nighttime, and he came into our room, and because
our bedroom overlooks the road, yes, and I was doing
that old lady thing where you pulled the blinds apart
(25:35):
and steer out through the blinds.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
A little peeping maddy.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
A little peeping maddy on the street. What's going on? Oh,
caoll noise complain, I'll call cool noise control. But today
Ryan and I have realized that we have like a
green bin. That's that all of our like lawn clippings
and hedge leaves and stuff. We put them in there
and then once a month the truck comes and collects it. Well,
(26:02):
they came and collected it last week. Lo and behold
the bin has gone missing.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Who on earth would take your bit?
Speaker 3 (26:12):
And someone on our street I think has stolen our
green bin.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
And is that what you think the noise was the
other night?
Speaker 3 (26:18):
No, I don't think it was. This is these are
two separate incidents. All of this is, all of this
is starting to make me feel like I'm people becoming
a busybody, because now I feel like I'm going to
have to be one of these people that goes door
to door trying to find the culprit of the bin stealer.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Surely you're active on the local Facebook community.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Why don't you do? Oh, I am a chention, but
an anonymous post going. I will call the authorities if required.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Yeah, you're right, you're definitely getting older.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
The podcast, as Wow mentioned the council a stolen rubbish
bin and people are fired up on the text machine
with a whole lot of advice for you. Mady, howter
you said that your green bin has gone a walkabouts.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
It just disappeared. It got picked up last week and
you know they emptied it and then the bin's gone.
I don't know where it is. Someone said I had
a green bin service that went missing one day. It
was the company that took it because the service was
ending and they didn't tell us. Check with them, so
I will. I'll give them a call.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Have you done anything to enrage your immediate neighbors? Is
there any reason for them to begin a war with you?
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Unlikely? Unlikely the Hen's party the other way. No, we're
low level neighbors.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Someone else also said, Maddy, just call you countsl and
get a replacement. My foot scrapspin was stolen and it
took day for delivery.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
So the okay, So stop complaining on the radio and
just do something about it. It takes action, mate, takes
some action.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
May the podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
That I love a crazy coincidence? You know those stories
where you just go, what are the chances that this
has happened?
Speaker 2 (28:21):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
I heard a great story about an American woman called
Mackenzie van Iike. Now when she was in the fourth grade,
so I'm guessing that it's like maybe year five, year five,
So when she was maybe eight years old or something
like that, she was at primary school and her teacher said,
what we're going to do is do a message in
(28:43):
a bottle. So you were going to write a letter
from yourself. We'll put it in a bottle and we're
going to chuck it into the water. The bottles into
the water, and so the class did it right. That
was in nineteen ninety eight. Twenty six years later, the
bottle washed ashore and someone found it and thought, you
(29:06):
know what I'm going to do. I'm going to give
it to a teacher friend of mine so that the
teacher can read it out to the class. Is a
little bit of like a time capsule, like a this
is what was This is what life was like in
nineteen ninety eight. This is someone that was your age
and what they were going through at that time. So
the teacher read it to their fourth grade class, including
(29:31):
one particular girl. Have listened to this.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
My teacher just.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Read the whole note.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
At the very end.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
She said, the name and whose name was it? It
was her mom's. What are the odds that the note
written by Mackenzie when she was a fourth grader would
all these years later end up being read to her
daughter in the fourth grade.
Speaker 13 (29:53):
It seems pretty unbelievable, honestly.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Oh yeah, it's such a classic cheesy American voicing. Yeah yeah,
but isn't that crazy? So McKenzie put the note into
a bottle twenty six years ago, it washed ashore, handed
to a teacher. The teacher read it out to her
fourth grade class, and Mackenzie's daughter happened to be in
that fourth grade class.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
You wouldn't believe it.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
What are the chances? What are the changes?
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That just took me back to how we we did
little time capsules at primary school. I vividly remember doing
it a christ Church and I so wonder where we
dug them into the ground.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Yeah, whatever happened to them?
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Does anyone know what happened to the sell in house
school catuals that we buried like the late nineties, Please
en life to me if they've ever come above anyway,
crazy coincidence stories like this, Have you got one of
your own? Maybe it was something kind of similar, totally different.
But what was that coincidental thing that you wouldn't believe
(31:00):
actually happened. I'll wait one hundred the hits so you
can text through four four eight seven.
Speaker 8 (31:07):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Do you have a crazy coincidence story? Maddy's just been
talking about a woman who wrote in a bottle when
she was grade four in the States, and somehow that
bottle ended up getting back to her daughter.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
You're gonna tell the story way better.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Twenty six years later, the woman threw the bottle in
the water, it got washed ashore this year and handed
to a teacher who read it out to their fourth
grade class, and the woman's daughter happened to be in
that exact same class. What are the chances?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
What are the chances?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
So we want to know your Amazingkwinkie dinks. Do you
have a CoInc I've been so cruinge with.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
My wording it's okay, it's okay, instead of.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Me it's okay.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
We're going to let it slow. We're going over with me.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Oh wait, a hundred of the heads.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
What was your coincidence story? Anna is joining us.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Hianna try why what happened?
Speaker 7 (32:12):
You know?
Speaker 13 (32:12):
So this is back when I was in the dating
pool and on fit the dating apps, and I met
this guy. We you know, really headed off and we went.
Speaker 9 (32:22):
On a few dates and it got to the third
date and I noticed he had this thing on his
arm and what it was was like a diabetic sensor.
And it hit me because I'm also a type one
diabetic and our.
Speaker 10 (32:37):
Whole life I've been actively avoiding other Type one is
only about twenty thousands of us in New Zealand, right,
And yeah, so he happened to also be a type
one diabetic, which we discovered on our third date, and
pretty much, yeah, we we decided that we were going
to stick it out, and we're now married and we
have a house together.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Hey happy ending.
Speaker 9 (33:01):
Yeah, yeah, we've got both others of immune diseases actually
between two of us, so real fun.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Oh oh well, look, it's going to say good for you,
but it just that feels wrong just saying.
Speaker 10 (33:12):
But also, yeah, yeah, it's very very stucky.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Actually many of your fas.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
No, no, no, it's it's fine. It's just really a coincidence. Well,

We'll take it. We'll take it.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Well, Bradjet, what about you?
Speaker 1 (33:39):
What was your amazing coincidence story?
Speaker 6 (33:44):
A few years ago? I had a really bad dream
about a horse having an accident. Yes, I'm quite worried
because I ride horses myself and I had a competition
that weekend. Anyway, I went all good, but two days
(34:05):
later we went out to the Cambridge Trots for evening
out and this horse just fell over in the sulky Right,
I'll turn my friend about this dream beforehand. She comes
running out to me. She's like, you're not going to
believe the name of that horse. What was it the name?
She said, the scary dream.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Okay, that is good. I'll take that. I was like,
Wisdys going going. I'm not I'm not huge on the
woo woo, but I will take that.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Wow, Bridget, was that a one off prophetic dream where
if you had a few cents.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Sally had a hue? Okay, liked stuff, So okay, we're
not good.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Okay, well, Cable, let us know if you ever have
a dream about one of us. Tokay, Bridget, Yeah, yeah,
keep us in the loaf for right.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
Had any of the years. So I think I'm good now.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Maddy and PJ, Medi and PJ the podcast. That's the
People's Poll, the.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 8 (35:11):
It's the People's pole.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Yet it with Meddi and PJ for Tuesday night and
every day on the show. We have a People's Poll
which we put up on our Instagram page.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
That's Drive with Meddi and PJ. You can go way
in there. We have already put it up.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Today is a question about road trips and certain protocols
during road trips.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
The specific question.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
Is is it okay to sleep on the road trip
when you are the only passenger in the car or
is it your duty to help keep the driver awake?
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Did you do this recently? Is this coming from personal experience?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Well, yes, we were on a road trip over the
weekend and it just made me realize my husband won't
meet missleep when he's driving, or even if I drive.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Meditator, who got well, you always do this. He talked
to me, talk to me and he just wants to chat.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Does he actually does he actually want to chat? Or
does he then end up just sitting there in long
bouts of silence.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
I mean, there are definitely long bouts of silence, but
I just don't think he likes to sleep.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
And then I you know, on the other hand, I'll
be driving with mom and she'll be in the passenger
seat and I'll be like, Mommy, can go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
She goes, no, no, no, no, no, Paddy, I've got to
stay awake because I've got to keep you awake. Someone
has to keep you awake.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
So my question is, are you allowed to have a
little snooze on the roady if you are the only
passenger in the car.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
That's fine. I've done that producers here and I were
driving back from when we did the Hall Ball and
I fell asleep.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Oh and it was I was very lonely. I wanted
to wake you up.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Sleep let me sleep, Okay.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Okay, So this is this is the question. It's a
simple one.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Do you think it is okay to sleep when you're
the only passenger on a road trip. I'm glad to
have some backing from both of you. I didn't think
that would.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Be the way.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
But what do you do at home? If you're listening
right now, do you sleep on the road trip or not?
Is it road do you have a role to play?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Mady and PJ, the podcast, the heads, the People's Poll, the.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 8 (37:32):
It's the People's Pole.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
A bit of a niche roady question this evening for
our people's pot. We want to know is it okay
to sleep when you're the only passenger on a road trip?
Inspired by the fact that my husband, if I start
to nod off.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
He'll just prod me. He'll go, wake up, wake up.
I want to talk. We need to get to talk.
You need to keep you awake.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
I say, it's fine. You're allowed to do whatever you
want to do. You you for my husband, like, he
loves to drive, so I forget. If he's happy doing that,
then I should be able to do whatever I want
to do.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
In the passenger see a couple of texts coming through.
Someone said, I reckon if it's late at night, you
need to stay away to keep the driver alert.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
No, one said, yeah, I reckon at night. Maybe there
is more of duty.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah, maybe, maybe, he says, after he fell asleep.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
I did fall asleep in the car. Produce here. I
didn't even mean to. It was a complete eccident.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Actually had done it twice. You did it after the
note to do a marathon as well?
Speaker 3 (38:32):
Did I mean to be twenty one?
Speaker 1 (38:37):
There's a special breed that just falls asleep like that,
like when you get on the plane, you're out to it.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
I can say it's completely split down the middle. Is
that on the On the Instagram, forty eight percent said
it's fine if you're tired, go to sleep, and fifty
two percent said no, you've got to stay awake to
keep the driver happy and testing.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I think towards the end of the day may maybe
it's more of a duty. But someone did ticks in
saying the driver will be okay on their own. You know,
like people drive by the just covers all the time,
so why are you expected to keep them?
Speaker 8 (39:13):
Many and PJ the podcast that's
The Hits Drive with Maddy and Pja thanks to chimis
Wee House the Real House of Fragrances.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Time of the year. When are you going to get
your Christmas tree up?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
I'll wait until December first, or when's the week? Like
I feel like Sunday nights are a great night to
put on upper Christmas tree. What's the calendar, like, Sunday
the first? Ye, Sunday the first, so that might be
us actually have a Sunday. I might make a nice
dinner we'll put on.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Like a tree, fake tree, bake tree.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
We do a fake tree. It's a good fake tree, though,
it's so make it pretty.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Do you do the pine spreak?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
No, that's a good idea.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
I just I love a real one because I love
the smell of it.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
But we get quite like it gets quite hot up
at our place of a Christmas and the tree dies
so quick you gotta keep giving it lots of water.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I might put on a Christmas movie. What is your
top like, what's top tier Christmas movies for you?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Basic bitch dot com? Actually, and the Holiday?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
The Holiday there is such a good one.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I love the Holiday because who does not love your laar?
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Who doesn't love all of them?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
To be fear Kate Wens, Cameron Diez. Yeah, they're all
iconic in it.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
But yeah, jud Laws, especially in that film, specially.

Thirty fourth Street? It's got Maral Wilson. You know Mary Wilson.
She was in like Matilda, like little girl that was
in Matilda and Missus Doubt Fire.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
And Okay, I've gone to the nineteen forty seven, not

Oh yeah, has it got Matilda as she's young?
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Grown up?
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Young?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Oh yeah, yeah right. I saw a fight of her
the other day or grown up and it freaked me out.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Yeah, have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You've seen her?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Like, isn't it all? It's so terriffy when someone you
know so well from those iconic like movies looks totally different.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's just I read an amazing story when they were
filming Matilda. Her mom, her mum got really sick and
was like terminal, and so she wasn't going to be
able to see like she They were like, she's not
going to make it to see the film. So Danny DeVito,
who directed the movie, got like a rough copy of
(03:44):
it and brought it into the hospital so that Marra
Wilson's mom could watch Matilda. Isn't that beautiful?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Oh my god, Miss Honey, Miss Honey, what honey makes
me emotional?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's so beautiful.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
We all wanted like, in fact, I feel like your
head and miss Honey at some point in our lives.
Like a teacher, yes, such a nurturing teacher.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I think mine was missus Best who we meet in Wellington. Yes,
she was awesome.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I had a couple of great teachers. One was a
guy called mister Pentecost, who that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Was the whole one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
No, no, no, sorry, that's no just receipt to mister Pentecost.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
But no, that's not It's just lovely.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
That's not the one that I was talking about, though.
That was the teacher. Mister Pentecost was always the Mister
Pinocost was my primary school teacher, and he just made
learning fun. I just remember, yeah, and everyone wanted to
be in his class, like desperately.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That was the same as mister Hanson at high school.
He called me man child, which it was not derogatory.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
It was fun.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
We're still like we still chair, like I'm saying about
about and stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
He's so funny.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Did BJ speaking of teachers? Did be j end up
going to the fiftieth fiftieth?
Speaker 7 (04:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
He did?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, and everything that we're getting apart from the fishing, Yeah,
had a great night.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think he's in a band anyway. Coming up the.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Podcast, we talk about what did you try and get
your partner into that didn't fly? We have a group
therapy and your crazy coincidence stories.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
All of that and more coming up. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
I think yesterday was the most exciting day of your
adult life.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
No comedie, you're going to ask me to say.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Absolutely, Screw the weddings, screwed starting this new job, Screw
wedding trees of Island. Last night he had to.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Chudge to Chuck and celebrity treasure.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
I had to last night. I went to the Wicked
movie premiere. I said to you, I think this is
the most excited I've ever been for a movie. And
so that means I was going in with very very
high expectations.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
It's risky.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
I always just try and knock down my expectations alert
or just so that it's less likely to be disappointed.
Like even if I'm really excited, I'll just try and
like have some negative self talk, like, nah, I won't
be as good as you think it's going to be.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yeah, I didn't do that. So here's the thing I love. Like,
I love musicals, and Wacked especially is high, high, high
up there in terms of musicals that I love. I
also am obsessed with Ariana Grande, so it's just a
triple women. Like all these things were aligning for it
to be a very very special movie for me, and
(06:31):
I went along with my husband Ryan, and this movie
is one of the most incredible movies I've ever seen
in my life. It really really it lived up to
exceeded heightened expectations. It was incredible.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The fact that it even mats for expectations speaks volumes
because you had serious.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
But there's something that happens. And I don't know if
you've ever done this, but you know you have like
maybe a movie that you used to watch a lot
as a kid, or you grew up on a movie
that you loved, and then you find out that someone
in your life, whether it be a friend or like
a sibling or maybe a partner later in life, has
never seen the movie, yes, and you say you've never
(07:17):
seen you know, you've never seen the movie. You've never
seen bring it on before, You've never seen Miscongeniality. And
then you said, we're putting it on. We're putting it on,
and you sit on the couch. But then what happens
is rather than watching the screen, rather than watching the movie,
all you do is you watch them yeah, and you hope,
like how that they love the movie as much as
(07:39):
you do. And so you got and then you go
watch this bit, watch this, this is good. Wait, no, wait,
you pay attention.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Just don't go to the don't go into toilet now,
trust me, you're not gonna work what a mess the
next ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Put your phone down because this is important. This is
a key plot point, and you're gonna need to pay
attention to this. So I was kind of like that
and wicked last night, even though it was a new
experience in terms of I'd never seen the movie before.
I didn't know you were.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
So passionate about all of it. You just loved it
and you wanted Ryan to be on the same wavele and.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
I knew the storyline, and so from the get go
I kind of just kept like glancing over at him,
going are you likeing it? And I'd be like, see this,
this is this guy's important. You're gonna what you need
to know who this guy is. And then what I
forgot was that Ryan famously does not like musicals. I
(08:28):
took him to Beauty and the Beast, the live action
Beauty and the Beast a few years ago, and he
turned to me at one point and said, is this
a musical?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
You should have given him the heads up.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
No, But but I actually did give him the heads up.
I said to him, just f yi, this is a musical.
But I kind of forgot how much he doesn't really
like musicals. And at one point during the very first song,
he turned to me and he goes, is there this
level of singing the whole way through? And I was like,
it's musical.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I can't describe how soul destroying it is sol destroying
when something you love so much is not loved on
that level by someone you love so much.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Like you just want them to get it, and they don't.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
They don't get it, and it is it's so hard
because you're like, I love you, you love me. We
are a great partnership. So surely you're going to love
the thing that I love. And it's not always the case.
It's not always the case.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Let's roll with this this afternoon, as this happened to you,
What did you try and get your partner into and
it just didn't It did not fly, It did not
work at backfired, and they hated it.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
What was that thing that you try to keep your
partner to equally love as much as you. You can
give us a call right now. Oh wait, hundred the
hits or text full flights.
Speaker 8 (09:54):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Podcast and Natty was very are key to have an
exclusive invite last night to go along to the Wicked
premiere which comes out in cinemas on Thursday, and actually
to celebrate that, we want to send you on the
wickedest trip ever to the Gold Coast. So that cuticle
is coming up inside the next ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
But it didn't go quite to plan.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
You took your lovely husband with you and you hoped
more than anything that he would love the movie as
much as you.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
And he turned to me during the very first song
of the movie, so minutes him, We're literally minutes it
and he said, is there singing like this the whole
way through? When I said it's a musical.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Well, that'll be the last time we talk him to
a music.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
It's a hard road when your partner doesn't love the
thing that you love.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Yeah, so we wanted to know when did you try
desperately to get your partner to love something as much
as you did?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Marcia is joining us?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Hi, Marcia, Hello, how are you?
Speaker 9 (10:53):
Hell?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Yeah, very well?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
What happened with you?
Speaker 7 (10:57):
My husband is a mart On runner and he loves Runnie.
He's been doing it for the last fourteen years, and
he always tried to bring me along. But I tried,
but I just twisted my ankle so many times, the hound.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Going, You're like, come it on by.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
That is just not for men.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
And I try, and I tried many times.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
I actually did a few.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
Five k's with him, but just I don't even try
anymore because I'm just scared that I'm gonna tweet my.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Look after.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
It's so much comment, I would say, so let's go
ahead of high Hannah, how are you?
Speaker 11 (11:44):
I'm good?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Thank you? How are you?
Speaker 6 (11:46):
Team good?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Very very well? So is this something you love or
something your partner loves?
Speaker 12 (11:52):
Something my partner loves, and he tried desperately to get
me and work. But I'm just absolutely not fishing for anyone.
Speaker 6 (11:59):
For you need think, Oh.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
It's literally fishing.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (12:04):
Yeah, it's not even like proper sea fishing. So we
don't go out on the boat. We just like go
to these like murky creeks and stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh my god, Hannah, I know my husband is such
a keen fisherman. And the way that he tries to
weave it into conversation to make it about how something
I'd love to do, how we can spend time by
the beach, how we can have wines while fishing. You know,
the way that he just tries to market it towards me.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
It's hilarious exactly.
Speaker 12 (12:33):
And as soon as we go out and get his
stuff done, there's always something in it for me, like
a nice drength for.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
So, is that is that what I needed to do
with Wicked last night? Did I just need to market
a bit better? Or you could sit in the dark
and eat poporn that would have got him, that would have.
Speaker 8 (12:49):
Gone mad and Mary and the podcast, that's.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
What a blessed life you're leading at the moment, page
You're absolutely glowing with your pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I don't like where this is going. It sounds like
you're sucking up to me.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
No, you're sucking up to me, not sucking up.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Are you scared of me?
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Am?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
I giving off scary vibes at the moment.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Well, you did come to me before the show and
you said these pregnancy hormones not quite like that, But
no I did. I did.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
It's mean. I just I have to remind myself that
they do going waves.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
And right now, the last twenty four hours, forty eight hours,
the most ridiculous things have been tacking me off, and
I've just found myself raging, and I have to remind
myself it's not me.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm like, hang on with this usually irritate me on grind.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
I guess no, but it's like the smallest inconveniences will
wundery up.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
And I'm not like a grumpy You're not at all.
You are not at all.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
But when I'm fiery, I can fire.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I've discovered well, bless you, but but bless you for
acknowledging it.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
It's healthy.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
You've got to acknowledge it.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And I acknowledge it's not me. It's not me.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
It's the hormones, it's the bloody thing. It's ride me.
So anyway, I was thinking about it because I thought,
what can I do, you know, like, what can I
do to help? And there's really not a lot that
I can do to help except potentially offer you a
platform with which to vent your frustrations openly and honestly
(14:30):
and get them out peage, because you are someone that
needs to You need to get the emotions out. You're
not someone that likes to hold things in.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Okay, this could get dangerous, and it could get long.
It could really it could end up going for a while.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Madie.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
I'm giving you a minute, a minute of pj's pregnancy
rage to get out whatever you want. You can. You
can vent and rage about whatever you would like to.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
I don't think I can tell you the things that
I actually raged about before the show, because.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I don't want to offend anymore. But have you got
a few things that potentially you could get off your
cheese right now, things that maybe are irritating you at
the moment.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
I'm sure yep, okay, yep, okay.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Here is Pj's pregnancy Rage. You've got one minute and
it starts now.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Okay, when you're clearly in a hurry, but the person
at the counter doesn't get the cue and they continue
to move at ten miles per hour, stretching out the
process as long as humanly possible. When it takes the
earcon still forever to actually turn cold. And we're in
the year twenty twenty four, how is technology working better?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Not working better? In cars?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
When they play budget covers of really good songs and
retails fully butchering the song.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
It's like the stork can only afford the t MO version.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
When you get sent a package and the packaging well
outweighs the items of the package, it is so bad
for the environment and just a straight up waste. Passive
aggressive emails where meetings could just be emails where people
say should of instead of should have, where people also
say specifically instead of specifically twenty seconds, Um.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
You the things that are on your mind? Now you
can't say out loud, right, okay, but do you feel
good and feel like you got really good?
Speaker 5 (16:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
I hate it when people won't really slow in front
of me. I'm one of those.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Ok sorry one, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
That was really therapeutic that you so much.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
May you feel so much better, because you know, I
hated one of these many ones with my mum before
the show, and I felt like kyl Is. You know,
sometimes you just have to artaiculate, verbalize, get it off
your chest, and then it's gone.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Anything else. If anyone else out there wants to add
anything to the Pregnancy Rage Hotline, you can teach them
through to four even Serious Theory once a week segment.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Maybe we should. Maybe other people can get involved to her.
You text through four for its even. What would you
like to add to the list?
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Mady J Many and PJ the podcast The Heads Many
and PJS Group Therapy.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Al Right, we do this on show every week. Your
time to get in touch with us. Tell us something
that's going on in your life you need help with,
and we'll do our best to dissect and shout advice.
We don't always give the best advice, but we get
New Zealand's Away in and they.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Do always great advice, great advice. This week's submission says, hey,
Madi Mpjane. I work in a pretty demanding job where
we're all expected to be fully focused during work hours. Recently,
I found out that one of my coworkers is running
a side hustle during office time, They're sneaking and work
for their online business, answering emails, updating social media, even
(17:35):
taking some calls, all while we're supposed to be on
the clock. Here's the catch. They are good at their
job and they do always meet their deadlines, so their
work doesn't seem to be suffering, but it feels unfair
since the rest of us are sticking to the rules
and pulling our weight. I'm torn. Do I report this
to my manager and risk creating tension with them and
(17:55):
maybe even the whole team, or should I mind my
own business since it's not really affecting their performance. Part
of me thinks that they're getting away with something they shouldn't.
But another part wonder is if i'd just be stirring
up unnecessary drama, what would you do?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Okay, I'm going to come out the gates with my
initial gut reaction.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
It just feels a bit anarchy to me. If it's not.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Impacting the quality of their work at work, then why
should it matter. I mean, you know, outside of work,
lots of people have things going on, whether it's relationships
or hobbies or you know, extracurricular activity.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Sus If it's not impacting your main crust, then go
for gold.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah, but your keyword there was outside of work and
this is inside of work. And I get that feeling
of on fairness, the sense of well, you're getting away
with something the rest of us aren't able to do,
you know, like we're all pulling our way and not
doing things that we shouldn't be doing within work hours.
And it does feel a little bit underhanded to be like,
(18:58):
I'm being paid and employed by these people to do
a job and I'm going to take that. I'm going
to take the purse a little.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Bit, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But also times bloody tough and people need, you know,
extra sure and come where they can get it so
if they can hustle and they can do it. And
I mean, look, you maybe look into your contract because
you know, like maybe if it's literally written in your
contract and it stipulates that you can't do this.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
But if not for gold, I reckon, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Well, and the trigues machine.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Is already starting to speake. Someone's already said, hick, no,
you can't do that at work. You're at work where
you should focus on your actual job, not a hobby
that pays.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
I would be really interested to see where the majority
of people land on this, because I do think it
will be very split. A lot of people go through
my business. If you're doing the work, it doesn't bother me,
like it doesn't impact on meny times are tough.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
People need to get creative.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
So okay, what are your thoughts on this week's group therapy?
Is it okay to do another side hustle while you're
at your main job and it's not impacting your main
work or is it will it long term?
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Long term? Potentially?
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Oh, eight hundred of hats to weigh in with your
thoughts for this week's group therapy.
Speaker 8 (20:15):
Maddy ANDPJ.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Many and PJS group Therapy.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
We haven't had a divided one like this and quite
some time.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I love it when people get quite haters or at
both ends of the debate. Now, Maddie, can you recap
this week's group therapy?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Dlimt.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Someone said, I work in a pretty demanding job where
we were all expected to be fully focused during work hours. Recently,
I found out that one of my co workers is
running a side hustle during office time, sneaking and work
for their online business, answering emails, updating social media, even
taking calls while we're supposed to be on the clock.
Here's the catch. They're really good at their job and
always meet their deadline, so their work doesn't seem to suffer,
(20:58):
but it does feel unfear So I'm torn. Do I
report this to my manager or should I mind my
own business? Since it's not affecting their performance.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
I said, I think if it's not impacting their main job,
then that's not your place to knak.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
And if it does.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Impact the work long term, then they're probably going to
self employe themselves and out themselves.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (21:22):
If that's your place to come in and dob and.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
You know a fellow college.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Yeah, although I said, they are taking the pistol a
little bit because it's company time, it's company resources, and yeah,
you're you're being paid to be there to do a job.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
All right, Let's see what Michelle has to say. One hundreds.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
I Michelle, Oh here, very well, what are you? What
do you reckon about the situation?
Speaker 11 (21:50):
Yeah, I'm with me. J Yeah, I mean, she can't
if she hasn't done anything like going on Facebook or
check the bend account or anything like that on time.
It would be very surprised. I go past the deils
a week sometimes, what are you looking at it? You know,
I'm just trying to find a prison, right.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Even the bosses online sometimes, So you're saying none of us,
none of us are totally guilt free.
Speaker 11 (22:17):
Yeah, exactly, So i'd let it right. And you know,
if they're doing it for hours on me, no, probably
a different story. But if it's only taking them five minutes, yeah,
I don't think it's an issue.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Yeah, Yeah, good point. Then, Michelle, thank you so much
for wang and let's go to Zarana. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Hello, I definitely would feel guilty, And can I just say, Michelle,
you wouldn't work for me? No, I just feel like
you're getting paid to do that one job.
Speaker 10 (22:49):
And I would just feel like guilty.
Speaker 11 (22:52):
I don't know, I just yeah, But do you know, like.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
These side hustles are coming more and more common because
for you know, households to make ends made.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Having to go above and beyond.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
So yes, if it's not impacting their main crust, I
don't know if that's an issue.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Yeah, but I think you can only you can only
take a side hustle on if you have the extra
time to be able to do it. That is the
whole point and purpose of a side hustle is it's
meant to be on the side of the job that
you do day and day out.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
But then I agree with Michelle's point though, like we
all was waste time at work in some capacity, whether
it is Facebook or shopping or whatever. So if you know,
like what's the difference, and if it's not impacting the
quality of your work, then I think go for goals.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
A lot of texts, a lot of texts coming in.
Someone said, don't be that person. It will label you
as an ARC regardless of what happens, and that reputation
will stick with you for as long as you work there.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh, someone said, my question would be are they using
company property, laptop or self and if so, then that
changes the scenario.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Cheers Team Chris.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Yeah, someone said, I think, so long as it doesn't
affect your work output or quality, then go for gold.
It's my view that a company pays you for the
work that you do, so as long as you're getting
what they pay for, why not. So maybe there's generally
where we land today. Page. I think a lot some
people are saying, yeah, sure they're taking their purse a
(24:23):
little bit, but in some ways, don't we all, you know,
a little bit bit?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Okay, that's a good resolution, I reckon for we meet
somewhere in the middle of this week. Have you've got
any text or any sorry dilemmas that you want us
to tackle next week? Text them through four full eight
seven and we could be technically a next week Tuesday,
next Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Next Tuesday.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Don't even know the day the podcast.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I fear. I fear that I'm getting a little old
for a number of reasons, but today specifically, it's to
do with the fact that I think I'm becoming a
neighborhood busybody.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Oh my god, are you a busybody in every facess
of your life?
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Yes? But Ryan caught me doing something the other day,
which is that I heard noises outside on the street
at nighttime, and he came into our room, and because
our bedroom overlooks the road, yes, and I was doing
that old lady thing where you pulled the blinds apart
(25:35):
and steer out through the blinds.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
A little peeping maddy.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
A little peeping maddy on the street. What's going on? Oh,
caoll noise complain, I'll call cool noise control. But today
Ryan and I have realized that we have like a
green bin. That's that all of our like lawn clippings
and hedge leaves and stuff. We put them in there
and then once a month the truck comes and collects it. Well,
(26:02):
they came and collected it last week. Lo and behold
the bin has gone missing.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Who on earth would take your bit?
Speaker 3 (26:12):
And someone on our street I think has stolen our
green bin.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
And is that what you think the noise was the
other night?
Speaker 3 (26:18):
No, I don't think it was. This is these are
two separate incidents. All of this is, all of this
is starting to make me feel like I'm people becoming
a busybody, because now I feel like I'm going to
have to be one of these people that goes door
to door trying to find the culprit of the bin stealer.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Surely you're active on the local Facebook community.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Why don't you do? Oh, I am a chention, but
an anonymous post going. I will call the authorities if required.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Yeah, you're right, you're definitely getting older.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
The podcast, as Wow mentioned the council a stolen rubbish
bin and people are fired up on the text machine
with a whole lot of advice for you. Mady, howter
you said that your green bin has gone a walkabouts.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
It just disappeared. It got picked up last week and
you know they emptied it and then the bin's gone.
I don't know where it is. Someone said I had
a green bin service that went missing one day. It
was the company that took it because the service was
ending and they didn't tell us. Check with them, so
I will. I'll give them a call.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Have you done anything to enrage your immediate neighbors? Is
there any reason for them to begin a war with you?
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Unlikely? Unlikely the Hen's party the other way. No, we're
low level neighbors.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Someone else also said, Maddy, just call you countsl and
get a replacement. My foot scrapspin was stolen and it
took day for delivery.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
So the okay, So stop complaining on the radio and
just do something about it. It takes action, mate, takes
some action.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
May the podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
That I love a crazy coincidence? You know those stories
where you just go, what are the chances that this
has happened?
Speaker 2 (28:21):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
I heard a great story about an American woman called
Mackenzie van Iike. Now when she was in the fourth grade,
so I'm guessing that it's like maybe year five, year five,
So when she was maybe eight years old or something
like that, she was at primary school and her teacher said,
what we're going to do is do a message in
(28:43):
a bottle. So you were going to write a letter
from yourself. We'll put it in a bottle and we're
going to chuck it into the water. The bottles into
the water, and so the class did it right. That
was in nineteen ninety eight. Twenty six years later, the
bottle washed ashore and someone found it and thought, you
(29:06):
know what I'm going to do. I'm going to give
it to a teacher friend of mine so that the
teacher can read it out to the class. Is a
little bit of like a time capsule, like a this
is what was This is what life was like in
nineteen ninety eight. This is someone that was your age
and what they were going through at that time. So
the teacher read it to their fourth grade class, including
(29:31):
one particular girl. Have listened to this.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
My teacher just.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Read the whole note.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
At the very end.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
She said, the name and whose name was it? It
was her mom's. What are the odds that the note
written by Mackenzie when she was a fourth grader would
all these years later end up being read to her
daughter in the fourth grade.
Speaker 13 (29:53):
It seems pretty unbelievable, honestly.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Oh yeah, it's such a classic cheesy American voicing. Yeah yeah,
but isn't that crazy? So McKenzie put the note into
a bottle twenty six years ago, it washed ashore, handed
to a teacher. The teacher read it out to her
fourth grade class, and Mackenzie's daughter happened to be in
that fourth grade class.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
You wouldn't believe it.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
What are the chances? What are the changes?
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That just took me back to how we we did
little time capsules at primary school. I vividly remember doing
it a christ Church and I so wonder where we
dug them into the ground.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Yeah, whatever happened to them?
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Does anyone know what happened to the sell in house
school catuals that we buried like the late nineties, Please
en life to me if they've ever come above anyway,
crazy coincidence stories like this, Have you got one of
your own? Maybe it was something kind of similar, totally different.
But what was that coincidental thing that you wouldn't believe
(31:00):
actually happened. I'll wait one hundred the hits so you
can text through four four eight seven.
Speaker 8 (31:07):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Do you have a crazy coincidence story? Maddy's just been
talking about a woman who wrote in a bottle when
she was grade four in the States, and somehow that
bottle ended up getting back to her daughter.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
You're gonna tell the story way better.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Twenty six years later, the woman threw the bottle in
the water, it got washed ashore this year and handed
to a teacher who read it out to their fourth
grade class, and the woman's daughter happened to be in
that exact same class. What are the chances?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
What are the chances?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
So we want to know your Amazingkwinkie dinks. Do you
have a CoInc I've been so cruinge with.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
My wording it's okay, it's okay, instead of.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Me it's okay.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
We're going to let it slow. We're going over with me.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Oh wait, a hundred of the heads.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
What was your coincidence story? Anna is joining us.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Hianna try why what happened?
Speaker 7 (32:12):
You know?
Speaker 13 (32:12):
So this is back when I was in the dating
pool and on fit the dating apps, and I met
this guy. We you know, really headed off and we went.
Speaker 9 (32:22):
On a few dates and it got to the third
date and I noticed he had this thing on his
arm and what it was was like a diabetic sensor.
And it hit me because I'm also a type one
diabetic and our.
Speaker 10 (32:37):
Whole life I've been actively avoiding other Type one is
only about twenty thousands of us in New Zealand, right,
And yeah, so he happened to also be a type
one diabetic, which we discovered on our third date, and
pretty much, yeah, we we decided that we were going
to stick it out, and we're now married and we
have a house together.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Hey happy ending.
Speaker 9 (33:01):
Yeah, yeah, we've got both others of immune diseases actually
between two of us, so real fun.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Oh oh well, look, it's going to say good for you,
but it just that feels wrong just saying.
Speaker 10 (33:12):
But also, yeah, yeah, it's very very stucky.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Actually many of your fas.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
No, no, no, it's it's fine. It's just really a coincidence. Well,
you meet someone else who has diabetes, I give it
it's fine, it's fine. Yeah, yeah, we'll take We'll take it.
We'll take it. We'll take it.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Well, Bradjet, what about you?
Speaker 1 (33:39):
What was your amazing coincidence story?
Speaker 6 (33:44):
A few years ago? I had a really bad dream
about a horse having an accident. Yes, I'm quite worried
because I ride horses myself and I had a competition
that weekend. Anyway, I went all good, but two days
(34:05):
later we went out to the Cambridge Trots for evening
out and this horse just fell over in the sulky Right,
I'll turn my friend about this dream beforehand. She comes
running out to me. She's like, you're not going to
believe the name of that horse. What was it the name?
She said, the scary dream.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Okay, that is good. I'll take that. I was like,
Wisdys going going. I'm not I'm not huge on the
woo woo, but I will take that.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Wow, Bridget, was that a one off prophetic dream where
if you had a few cents.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Sally had a hue? Okay, liked stuff, So okay, we're
not good.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Okay, well, Cable, let us know if you ever have
a dream about one of us. Tokay, Bridget, Yeah, yeah,
keep us in the loaf for right.
Speaker 6 (34:58):

Speaker 4 (35:02):
Maddy and PJ, Medi and PJ the podcast. That's the
People's Poll, the.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 8 (35:11):
It's the People's pole.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Yet it with Meddi and PJ for Tuesday night and
every day on the show. We have a People's Poll
which we put up on our Instagram page.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
That's Drive with Meddi and PJ. You can go way
in there. We have already put it up.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Today is a question about road trips and certain protocols
during road trips.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
The specific question.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
Is is it okay to sleep on the road trip
when you are the only passenger in the car or
is it your duty to help keep the driver awake?
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Did you do this recently? Is this coming from personal experience?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Well, yes, we were on a road trip over the
weekend and it just made me realize my husband won't
meet missleep when he's driving, or even if I drive.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Meditator, who got well, you always do this. He talked
to me, talk to me and he just wants to chat.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Does he actually does he actually want to chat? Or
does he then end up just sitting there in long
bouts of silence.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
I mean, there are definitely long bouts of silence, but
I just don't think he likes to sleep.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
And then I you know, on the other hand, I'll
be driving with mom and she'll be in the passenger
seat and I'll be like, Mommy, can go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
She goes, no, no, no, no, no, Paddy, I've got to
stay awake because I've got to keep you awake. Someone
has to keep you awake.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
So my question is, are you allowed to have a
little snooze on the roady if you are the only
passenger in the car.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
That's fine. I've done that producers here and I were
driving back from when we did the Hall Ball and
I fell asleep.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Oh and it was I was very lonely. I wanted
to wake you up.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Sleep let me sleep, Okay.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Okay, So this is this is the question. It's a
simple one.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Do you think it is okay to sleep when you're
the only passenger on a road trip. I'm glad to
have some backing from both of you. I didn't think
that would.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Be the way.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
But what do you do at home? If you're listening
right now, do you sleep on the road trip or not?
Is it road do you have a role to play?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Mady and PJ, the podcast, the heads, the People's Poll, the.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 8 (37:32):
It's the People's Pole.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
A bit of a niche roady question this evening for
our people's pot. We want to know is it okay
to sleep when you're the only passenger on a road trip?
Inspired by the fact that my husband, if I start
to nod off.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
He'll just prod me. He'll go, wake up, wake up.
I want to talk. We need to get to talk.
You need to keep you awake.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
I say, it's fine. You're allowed to do whatever you
want to do. You you for my husband, like, he
loves to drive, so I forget. If he's happy doing that,
then I should be able to do whatever I want
to do.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
In the passenger see a couple of texts coming through.
Someone said, I reckon if it's late at night, you
need to stay away to keep the driver alert.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
No, one said, yeah, I reckon at night. Maybe there
is more of duty.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah, maybe, maybe, he says, after he fell asleep.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
I did fall asleep in the car. Produce here. I
didn't even mean to. It was a complete eccident.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Actually had done it twice. You did it after the
note to do a marathon as well?
Speaker 3 (38:32):
Did I mean to be twenty one?
Speaker 1 (38:37):
There's a special breed that just falls asleep like that,
like when you get on the plane, you're out to it.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
I can say it's completely split down the middle. Is
that on the On the Instagram, forty eight percent said
it's fine if you're tired, go to sleep, and fifty
two percent said no, you've got to stay awake to
keep the driver happy and testing.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I think towards the end of the day may maybe
it's more of a duty. But someone did ticks in
saying the driver will be okay on their own. You know,
like people drive by the just covers all the time,
so why are you expected to keep them?
