Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hits Drive with Maddy and PJ. Thanks to chimis
Wee House, the Real House of Fragrances.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And on that.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hey, everyone, welcome to the podcast. So recently I've had
an epiphany, a realization call it what you like, that
I really want to know the gender of a baby
this time around. Charlie, a two year old, was a surprise.
He was a total surprise, which is amazing. There's something
in me this time that just wants to know. I
(00:31):
just I want to know. So we're coming up to
a Nick scan where you can actually choose to.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Find out or not, and I really want to do it,
but I'm just going to keep PJ across.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
He's not there.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
He really wanted the surprise, but now he's starting to
work out how he can make it work for him.
So he's like, well, yeah, yeah, we can do that
as long as I can go hunting.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Oh within that month after the baby's born. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
not like I don't care that I don't want to
know that much.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
No, absolutely not. So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I think I need a really cool actionly leddy not leddy,
but just an exciting different way.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
A gender reveal.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I think I think I want to do a gender reveal.
I just feel like this has been so busy. I'm like,
it'll be nice to have a few friends around and
celebrate getting halfway.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
And do you think they'd get him across the line
if you could be like, hey, we can have a
fun party. This is what we could do as a
gender reveal. That would be fun. BJ wouldn't it do?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Froth? A burnout? But there is no way I'm letting us.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
You're better than a burnout. You're better than respect. No,
just respect to.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Any absolutely no disrespect. Like fun, it's very fun. I
just want something a bit different.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
That's that, That's what I mean. It's like we've seen burnout.
Do you want something? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I think we take this on the show tomorrow and
when actually get people's thoughts for you to slide into
our DMS the hat Strave with Maddie and PJ. If
you've got any great ideas, if you did anything that
was super fun and a little bit different, let us know.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
How are you going with everything else? Like, I guess
have you even started thinking of names and stuff?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I got it.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Yeah, we've got a few.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
We've got a few but I'm kind of like not
taking it because last time I was sure Charlie was
Freddy and he popped down and I was like, Nope,
that's Charlie. So I yeah, we've definitely got names, and
we're like always kind of We might be watching TV
and a name pops album and be like, hmmm, Humphrey,
what do you think about Humphrey, And then we.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Have like a little chat.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
We are actually, luckily on the same page about probably
ninety percent of names.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
That's good. That's a good amount to be pa with.
And sometimes though, I reckon that extra ten percent is
where the gold comes from, because you're like possibly, because
then there are names that you're like I would have
never even and thought of that, But actually that's really cool.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I really tried to get Alfie across to lunch. Jude
Law was in Alfie and Alfie. Yeah, Alfie's I can't
get that across the line of page. It's one of
the ones I can't get across. Have a check No,
But maybe he's right. Maybe Alfie's like a cute little boy,
(03:24):
but then he just grows up to be a player
like Drede Law.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah, is there a prophecy in I wonder if a
prophecy in a name.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I reckon being called Polly has impacted me as a person,
because I was going to be called Alex or Kate.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
They were the other options my parents were going to
call me. Can you mention me Alex or Kate?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
I couldn't imagine you are Kate, but I could actually
imagine you and.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Alix what everyone says Alex, Yes, But even then, I
think I'd be quite a large personality for an Alex.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
Yeah, you'd be You'd be a lot for an Alex.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Like Alex's are cool.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Alex's are, but Polly's are cool.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I don't know, like any Polly's.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And I'm still waiting for Polly to have her time again,
you know what I mean. Like Polly still hasn't gone
through a popular phase of people calling their babies Polly.
There were lots of Poppies for a while, but not Polly.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Matt and Matthew, Like Matt Matthew. That was, like I think,
in the nineties, number one for a very long time
in the late eighties early nineties for boy names. I
think it was very very high on the list. I
don't know you'd get I don't think you'd get mini
mats anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
No, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
It's it's yeah, it is. You're like, it's your your
Jack's and your Alfie's and your free.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
D D Leo Charlie Harry.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yes, it's all of those ones.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, so much so after names like yeah, like not robots,
you're not having Roberts. No, you're not having metthew You're
not having Brendan.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
It's a tough one.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It's a wild cycle anyway. So we'll get more into
that tomorrow. But coming up on the show today, we
launch a brand new game called mean Girls, where we
bring funny at least we think they're funny memes to
the table.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
I liked it. I'd love to know what other people think,
but I liked it. I thought it worked really well.
We also talked about an embarrassing case of mistaken identity
that I had today involving a rather famous New Zealander,
and we.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Wanted to know the bizarre thing that was taken. All
of that and more coming up in the podcast.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
The podcast.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
That I feel like I've got a fun There must
be a condition, I reckon where you struggle to recognize
people's faces, because so often I'll see someone and go,
I know that person, but I don't know how I
know them, and I can't place it. It's almost like I.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Wonder if it gets murkier the older you gets, and
it's not a dog at you, that's a deg at
may turn because I feel like more and more I'm
having those moments where I'm like, oh, I know I've
met you before, and I cannot, for the life of
me place it.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, so that happens to me quite quite often. But
I had a very unique experience in the similar realm today,
which is that I really thought I had seen someone
that I knew, and I've been I have been finding
this more and more that I'll often wave to someone
thinking it someone else and then realize I don't actually
know the person that I've been waving to.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
And so then do you kind of turn it into
an awkward dance?
Speaker 4 (06:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
It was just like dance move.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
I'm just trying to get my watch like readjusted No,
but today this is bad. I was walking to work
and I saw Linda Top, one of the Top Twins.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh wow, and I'm loyalty.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I love the Top Twins and I've met and I've
met the Top Twins a number of times and they
are amazing and I've always had a good laugh with them.
And every time I see them, they are so kind
and so chatty. They are those they are the New
Zealand celebrities. I reckon that, you go. They are exactly
as you think they're going to be, and they are
(07:30):
exactly what you want them to be. They are just
so generous and so lovely and funny man funny. So
I saw Linda walking down the street in Auckland and
I thought, oh funny, because you know she didn't live here.
So I was walking towards her and I went Linda
(07:51):
and I waved, Oh.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
He's done the big wave, Telly.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
That's a big one, the big wave. It was not
Linda Top, it was it was a middle aged businessman.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well made.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah, I thought you were going to say it was
the other twe No, thank you, that's forgivable.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Absolute Which one's jewels and which one's Linda? You could forgive.
You could guess you could forgive that.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The twin pass.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Mistaking Linda Top, famous top Twin comedian for a middle
aged businessman. That's a whole nother thing.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
I mean, was there anyone closely walking behind uh, because
that's usually you get out of jail free card and
you can sort of divert and pretend that you're talking
to the person.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
So this is what happened. I said, Linda waved. The
businessman saw me, then obviously looked behind him, thinking well,
clearly I'm not someone called Linda, and then realized there
was no one behind him, And so what I had
to do?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
It must have thought you were nuts.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
I pivoted and I started walking back the other way
because I was like, I can't walk past this man.
It makes it so much worse.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
You gotta need to commit. And that's such change.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
It just come so sorry, so well, So I owe
a couple of apologies. One to Linda Top. I owe
you a massive apology for thinking for thinking you were
a middle aged businessman in Auckland. I then ow an
apology to the middle aged businessman for thinking that he
was comedian m Linda Top, do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (09:53):
He went to his computer afterwards and started gurgling Linda, like.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Who the hell is?
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Who did he think? I?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Why does he think I'm Linda?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
It was bad? It was bad?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Oh do you know what it makes us?
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Human.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
When these moments happened, it humbles us.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It brings us back down to earth, and I think
it's necessary every now and then.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
But I'm so glad it wasn't me.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Oh wait, one hundred hits, let's roll with this this afternoon,
or you can text through four for eight seven. When
did you have a case of mistaken identity and you
fully thought.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
It was someone but you got it wrong?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
What was the chaos and awkwardness that ensued after that?
We want to hear your case of mistaken identity?
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast the Hits.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
When did you get the wrong person?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You really committed, You went in, you said hi, you
gave him a hug, and then oh no, it's actually
not that person you thought it was, like Maddy experienced
on this street today.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
I thought it was a top to end but it
was a middle aged man. So luck. We all have
these moments. We love, we learn, no shame, and you
can stay anonymous. I want to.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'll wait a hundred of the Hits to join the show.
Cherie's joining out. Hello, Hi, how are you very well?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (11:19):
Terre?
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (11:21):
This going a few years ago now my younger days,
some mate sitting up on a blind date. So I
rocked along to this restaurant in town and wrongfully assumed
it was a really good looking guy sitting on his
end of the table.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
Oh my god, Yeah, we know, sat down, started talking.
He got up and I thought he was going to
give me a hug, so I went to hug him,
and at that precise time, his wife and kids came
back to the table. There is he thought it was.
(12:01):
They were really good about it. But I think that
would single handedly be the most embarrassing awkward moment.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
In my life. Did the guy that you were actually
meant to be meeting did he see any of this unfold?
Speaker 9 (12:13):
Yeah, and that's that's the funny. But and he sort
of came in, probably as I was hugging this other guy,
because he sort of knew of me, And then it
was We still talk about it now, and it's yeah,
it's it's cringe material now even thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
That is, he didn't end up married to the guy
that he went on the date with.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
No, no, no, no, but he ends up berrying a friend.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
So we're still in contact, and.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Yeah, I love that she so much wishful thinking, right,
You're like, of course, the good looking guy at the table,
that's for me. That's for me.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
How's it the cargo this afternoon?
Speaker 10 (12:56):
It's undecisible what it was there with the weather?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Yeah, I think that like that in a few places, Lewana.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah right, well what was your what was your mistaken identity? Sorry?
Speaker 10 (13:06):
I had my few the other days scouting to myself
and his mother about how he lifted hundred kg's at
the gym without anyone squatting for him, more helping in
whatever the word is, and his mom ground him and pen,
you're not supposed to do that, like what if you died?
Blah blah blah. And I just happened to go to
the gym yesterday and there was him doing the weight
(13:31):
and I walked up and whispered in his ear and
see your mom seeking not her to do that, and
he spun around and it was not much. It was
like some late thirty year old man.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
There's bold going going in for a whisper talking about
your mom.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
There's nothing there would be nothing creepier than a stranger
whispering in your ear.
Speaker 11 (13:57):
Your tea boy, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Maddy and PJ, the podcast, the Heads, the People's Poll,
the People's Poll. Everybody come together.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It's the people's Poll, but it's time for our people's part.
We do this every day on the show. W You
can always go on way in Instagram page the Hurts
Drive with Maddy and PJ. We put it up on
our story so you can vote ahead of anyone else.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
So the three of us, that is you and me,
Page and then producers here, we hang out a lot.
We spend a lot of time together. Yeah, And so
I realized that I do something and I'm wondering if
it's just because we know each other so well and
we spend a lot of time together, or whether this
is a very abnormal thing to do. But whenever I
(14:57):
need to have a little break to use the bathroom
here at work, I will leave the room by saying,
so I'm just going to go. I've got to go, Pete.
And I realized that I do this often the other day,
and I thought to myself, why do I have to
announce what it is that I'm going to do.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I think it's more you're announcing the fact that you're
not doing the other business.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
You want to know. It's not an awkward thing that
you're leaving the room to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
But also I think in our job it is actually
necessary information to know because often we're going between songs,
we're going between ads, yes, and there's a time limit,
and so if you're going number one, it's a quick one.
You do sometimes to specify what you're doing when.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
You're going to be taking a little bit longer.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
But could I not just say I'm going to the bathroom?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yea, but how long? How long are you going to be?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Yeah? Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I think it's a very It comes down to who
you're spending time with always like and most colleagues probably
won't do this to their fellow workmatees. We probably have
quite a unique situation where we are very intimate and
we spend a lot of time.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
And we share a lot of ourselves with each other
a lot.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
A lot.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
So I don't know if this is common practice, but
I would be very curious to know if it is
it a a kiwi thing or just a regular thing
that people do before going to the bathroom informing the
people around them.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah, so we've given you on the people's poll today
three options. Do you just leave the room and not
say anything like a normal person, leave the room and
say I'm going to the bathroom, or leave the room
and tell the people specifically what it is that you're
coming to do in the pay.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Guys, just right, all right, text your results through to four, four, eight, seven,
will come back and unveil the most common as in there,
Mary J.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
Many and PJ. The podcast, the heads, the People's.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Poll, the People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
It's the People's Poll.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The question today on the People's Poll, when you need
to go to the bathroom, do you specifically tell people
what you're going to do? Or do you just say
I'm going to the bathroom? Or do you even just
leave unannounced? Probably like the most normal person would.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
We can't read all these ticks. People have gone into
quite graphic details from what they say. They pop off
the low.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
Some of them we can say, the Hydra slide, You've
got to drop the kids off at the Hydra slides.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Since Mike, I love it, who's edited a lull at
the end? I stoked with that one.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Someone else said, our whole household informs everybody what we're doing,
sometimes in great detail.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Someone said, totally an announced the spacifics got to be specific,
at least it's a number two.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Then I just say I'm just going to the thank.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
You Alice is one hundred percent aways announce it to
the room. Need do we off for a week, going
to do a wee? Where's the bathroom? And need to
we I've always done it. I'd feel worried slinking away
for a week now without doing it.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
This is interesting.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I'd say majority of the texts coming through, they like
to announce to people what they're going to be doing
in the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
And thank you for the for the solidarity standing with me.
I would say, we are those of us who have
ticked there in or those of us who have told
that story are in the minority.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Oh, Kim's joining us, Oh right, hundred hats good? I
kem hi.
Speaker 12 (18:35):
How are you going?
Speaker 6 (18:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Not too bad? What are your thoughts? What do you
guys do?
Speaker 12 (18:41):
Well? Hay. He turns around where maybe somewhere where he
doesn't want people to know, he will say, I'm not
just going to go and drop the kids off at
the pool.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Yeah that's a classic classic. Yeah yeah. Yeah. The thing is, though,
I think most people do know what he's says everyone knows.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
I don't think that's there's nothing subtle about it at all.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
So if we look at our Instagram poll, only eight
percent of people said that they will say specifically what
they're off to do, only eight percent thirty eight cent said,
thirty eight percent said I'm going to the bathroom. That's
all you need to say, and then fifty three percent
of people said, you don't need to say anything, just
walk out of the room.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Okay, So once again we're in the minority.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Mary and PJ Many and PJ the podcast that.
Speaker 13 (19:39):
So relatable, that's totally Meuty Many and Pj's me mcgirls.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
So we thought, look, we're all guilty and partial to
sending memes. It is our love language, and it is
a way that you can say so much with so little.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
It's called pibling. When you send loved ones people you
care about, memes that you think that they will love
or think that they will relate to. That's what they
call it. There's a term for it.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
So we thought we could start a segment on the
show Litterally around this where each week we come to
the table with a relatable meme that we've seen and
see if others relate to it as well. This is
gonna be the interesting part. We could be standing out
on our own here. Okay, so judgment free zone. Maybe,
(20:29):
unless your meme's really bad, Sarah on, maybe Maddy Maddie
kicks kick us off.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
What have you got?
Speaker 4 (20:38):
My meme utilizes the imagery of SpongeBob SquarePants. Yep, so
it has two images. The first image is Patrick Starr
put SpongeBob's friend trying to walk through a door with
a wooden plank against his head and he can't get
through the door, basically just being an absolute more on,
a total idiot. And it says my brain trying to
(21:01):
remember anything important, basically saying it doesn't know how to function,
like I can't operate. I forget I honestly, I cannot
remember what I did yesterday.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
But then frivolous information, you'll remember it all exactly.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
So the second part of the meme is it says,
my brain remembering one bad thing I did ten years ago,
and it's got Patrick Starr with a microscope doing a
scientific analysis because it is true, right, your brain just
doesn't let you forget these stupid things that you did,
even though everyone else has forgotten all about.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Them, Like the moment I was running through the playground
at primary school when I had a hot pie on me,
and I remember tripping over the border of the playground
and I went headfirst into my mince pie in the playground. Now,
I know that's so irrelevant and doesn't seem significant, but
when you're at.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
A totally really scars you for life. I went to
kick a book a ball. A bunch of the jocks
were playing rugby at lunchtime, and the ball got kicked
my way by excellent And I was walking through the
playground and I said, kick it back to me, Kick
it back to me, and I picked up the ball
and I went to kick it and I missed the
ball and slipped over. Oh sweet, sticks with you. Sticks
(22:16):
with you? But can I remember what I had for
lunch yesterday? No, nope, it's good produces, Sirah, You're up next.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Okay.
Speaker 13 (22:26):
I think I may have missed the mark a little bit,
and I've gone for more of like a joke, which I.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Think is actually not Look, it's the first week, so
we'll just find our feet. Okay.
Speaker 13 (22:36):
So you at a job interview, okay, and the boss
says can you perform under pressure? And then you go,
I'm not sure I know all the lyrics, but here
goes nothing. It's not really relatable.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
It's so aw good explain but you got that right?
Speaker 4 (23:00):
Was good?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
That was good? Okay?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
My one is working at any office is like, okay,
we're transitioning to selearia, but payroll is still in bullfrog.
Did you see my nose cock post? So meet your
time card on fireplace, then hit me up on smackdog.
Do not upload the crackers without yamma approval?
Speaker 3 (23:20):
That really oh yeah boy?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Because there is like so many different types of technology
that comes from work, then I'm like, seriously, guys, can
we not just streamline this and to something universal that
we all use it home?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
I agree with you?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
What any of these words?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
I keep getting an email from the service center saying
there are seven technology modules I haven't completed yet because
I don't know how to.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Do any neither because they don't teach us.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
They expect us to know what yamma frog and fireplace
and all these silly applications are. So my question this
afternoon is is this something you should really know how
to do at work? But you still don't like it's
actually probably an important part of your role totally, and
you kind of just you just glaze over it and
(24:12):
you pretend that yeah, you wing it, but you don't
really know what you're doing. Oh wait, one hundred the
hat so you can text four for eight seven. What
is the thing that you should know how to.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Do at your work but you still don't know?
Speaker 5 (24:24):
Hard Man to podcast.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
We're asking the question, is there something you really should
know how to do at work but you still don't
know how to do?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Inspired by a man?
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Which see working at any office is like, okay, we're
transitioning to selaria, but payroll is still in bull from
did you see my nose cook?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Poke nose cock?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Post, submit your time card on Fireplace and then hit
me up on smackdog. Do not upload crackers without yeamma approval.
That is literally where I feel like every day when
I get an email from people, I'm so confused. So
we want to know what do you not know how
to do on the job that you really should No,
Jodie is joining us, Hi jots Hi, guys, how are
(25:05):
you good?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
What do you do for a living?
Speaker 12 (25:07):
First of all, I'm a credit controller and I'm supposed
to be pro using Excel spreadsheets and and I struggle.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
I hate anything like that.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
I use them every day, and you know, and it's
easier just to kind of print front whatever you're working
on out and kind of you know, just check it
off with your marker rather than try and you know,
highlight and pace and color and what what you've done.
And if I have to do a spreadsheet report, it
(25:47):
takes a really amazing date, makes it really crappy.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Spreadsheets to me, Like I like the I like the
maths version of yes, like paperwork.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
I just I just don't understand that AI can do
that for us, right surely, like do the things that
we actually needed to.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Sasha is joining us? Hi, Sasha, how are you good?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Hell?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it's Sasha, isn't It's Sasha the Australian vision Sasha.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Hello, What do you do for a living?
Speaker 3 (26:18):
And what can't you do?
Speaker 7 (26:20):
I work in a restaurant, so we're like supposed to
know how to use and turn off the dishwasher at
the end of shift, but I was never properly shown.
So whenever the like glasses trays get full, I'll occupy
myself of a different task.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Only they've got off by now.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
You keep avoiding it for as long as you can, Sash.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Let's read it up with Shelley. Hi, Shelley, what job
do you do and what simple task can you still
not do?
Speaker 10 (26:55):
So I do a lot of relieving. And there's a
year seven advanced maths class that I'm often covering, and
they are doing like year nine and ten work.
Speaker 6 (27:05):
And it's multi steps balancing.
Speaker 10 (27:09):
Algebraic equations and all sorts. And I've got no clothes,
so I find videos and I google terms and the.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Kids love it.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
I think it's fantastic.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Shelley's using the Maths for Dummies book.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
That's for dummies YouTube, right, is so good.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
The podcast.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
Technology is one of these funny things that you know, me,
I struggle with it at the best of times, But
when I really stop and think about it, I'm like,
I don't understand how this even works, Like how does
this thing operate?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Some people are just blessed with understanding technology, and others
are not bleased with that. And I've just come to
that conclusion. You know, sometimes you just have to embrace it.
You just know that great as technology.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
I'll tell you what I really don't understan at the moment,
and it's chet GPT. It's just one of these things
that's still I don't use it often, but when I do,
i'm off. I always go, how how have you just
spat this thing out at me? Very quickly?
Speaker 1 (28:14):
And so what I've gathered from it is the more
you give it, the more it builds. Right, So you
kind of build it yourself in a way.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Yeah, absolutely you do, and so I think you do.
Just have to keep using it more and more and more.
But I realized that I do something today because I
was using it for something else that I'm doing outside
of work, and it gave me something that I was
really impressed by. Like I was like, wow, you've really
done a good job of what I asked you to
(28:43):
give me. This is really top notch, and you sped
it out in about two seconds. But then I realized
I treatd chet GPT like a person.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Something you're gonna say, like a dog, good little little
woo almost.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Like that nobody, but like a person. I was so
proud of it for giving me this thing that I
missaged it back and I said, wow, you're really good
at this, Thank you so much. And I was like
very effusive in my praise of this robot, like it's
a computer, but I was treating it like a person.
(29:20):
And I put this up on my Instagram story, and boy,
oh boy, I was inundated with messengers all pretty much
saying the same thing. So I got some of the
girls in the office to recreate some of the dms
that I got on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Yeah, I totally do this too. I feel like I
need to be nice school when they take over the world.
Speaker 13 (29:36):
Absolutely, when the robots take over, they'll remember who use
their manners, or at least that's how I justify the
links of my people pleasing tendencies.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
I one hundred percent do this. We want them to
think humans are awesome.
Speaker 13 (29:46):
Plus I schedule takeover one day, so if I'm nice
to it, maybe I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Oh she used to say please and thank you?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Yeah, I mean I do.
Speaker 13 (29:53):
It's like a censure to say thank you. So the
AI overlord spare your life when they take over the world.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
Right, So is the thing everyone was saying. The robots
are going to take over, and you'd best believe I
want them to remember that I was nice to them.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Oh my god, I need to look back and see
how I've treated my little chet GPT. I don't know
if I've been as nice and care.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Well, you'd better start saying please and thank you. But
it turns out it's actually backed up by science. Peach
an article in Forbes said that recent researchers revealed politeness
isn't just about etiquette, it actually measurably improves AI performance.
So I found that impolite prompts often resulted in poorer performance,
including increased erarors, stronger biases, and notable emissions of important information.
(30:42):
So chet GPT like bugger, you didn't use you, Please
and thank I'll show you.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Oh my god, I think I just say hey, can
you give me this? And I don't say pleases or
thank you? Do we need to do xx?
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Or is that too much? Are they going to think
I'm coming on to that?
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Given it, give an XX, give an ex and it'll remember,
It'll remember.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Mary and PJ. Mary and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Sorry story coming out of Arthur Heart Today. A sulfur
crested cockatoo named Pepper is thought to have been stolen
from Staglan's Wildlife Reserve and Cafe No Really, and apparently
it was. It was well known for always saying Hello darling,
Hello darling, and then in staff and visitors and are
(31:35):
worried about the bird's safety. But they do say she'll
be easily identifiable. So that's I guess a good part
of it. But they say, if anyone is coming across
a bird that says hello darling and has two calls
were saying on her left foot, we can absolutely say
that is Pepper. So if you're in the area, Keith
and I art because it sounds like she is a
(31:55):
very special bird.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
Imagine if you walked into someone's house and they said,
I've got a new bird, and then you heard hello, darling.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Excuse me, I just saying to make a fun call.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Would you get the cops out?
Speaker 3 (32:06):
What would you do? Would you take the bird? What
would you do? I don't know what you do?
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Would you call the cops?
Speaker 3 (32:12):
No, I don't know if it's a cops situation.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
And weird it's a weird thing to steal, and then
it be a weird thing to report.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
It is a strange thing to steal, particularly because it
has such an easily identifying feature, right, totally.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
We once this is going on a bit of a
detour here.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
But we once through a bit of a house party
back in the day, in the early twenties when I
was living in the big smoke of Auckland. And the
next day, you know, you're cleaning up the house and
you're doing it's just a punish and the floors are
all sticky and whatnot. There was something that was missing
from our house at day, and it was a really
really bizarre theft, Like it's not what you'd expect, like
(32:55):
what would you expect to maybe go messing after a party?
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Oh like glass where maybe? Or money or yullye boom
maybe yeah, laptop maybe My.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Electric tooth brush was on what Yeah, so it was
in the bathroom downstairs. I vividly remember it by the basin.
The party happened and then boom, tooth brush going. And
to this day I have not worked out who thieved
my electric toothbrush.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
Ryan still talks about his sister throwing a party at
their house as teenagers, and Ryan was a bit younger
and he had those little like flip deck skateboards.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
That oh yeah, the hot wheels, yeah, maybet.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
Wheels, and you'd like you'd be able to flip them
and do little tricks with your fingers and stuff, and
Ryan said, someone stole one of the like one of
the party goalers, the teenage party goers at his sister's
house party stole his flip decks skateboard. And he still
talks about it to the stay. He's in his thirties,
he's still.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
I hear you, run, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
I still don't know who took the tooth and it
back fools make oh wait, hundred the hats you can
text through four full eight seven. We've actually got tickets
to give away for you to check out Wicked, which
is out in cinemas tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
What was the bizarre thing that was taken that just
doesn't make sense?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Yeah, like someone broke into your car and they stole
the car manual, like something that just.
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Does not end up. Why did they take it? We
want to know. I waite hundred of hats you can
text through four full eight seven.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
Maddy J.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
May and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
Oh my god, the text is blown up. We wanted
to know what was the bizarre thing that was taken?
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Like it was stolen, but you really don't understand why
in the first place someone would want to take.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
That because lots of things get stolen, and that's awful,
But often the things that you could understand, things that
you could absolutely get money for, you know.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Okay, for example, on the TX machine four four eight seven,
you can text through.
Speaker 11 (35:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I had my orthotics stolen while I was at a
time bessage place. That was weird because they're literally designed
for my feet, so.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
I'm not going to be comfortable on someone else.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Someone else said, we were having a few drinks at
mine and someone stole my shampoo and conditioner.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Let's go to Larissa on all right hand.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
The hurts Hi Larissa Hi hallowiod very well.
Speaker 10 (35:36):
It was supposed to be a small patty, but it
ended up being a lot more than.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Just a few people. We're all drunk and we ended
up all crashing out in the garage in the backyard.
Woke up in the morning and my mattress was gone
on my bed what what the worst part was had
fully remade my bed like the sheep was put back
on the the pillows were like back up with the
(36:02):
pillows belong and they was put back on there as well.
And I'm still going to say, I have no idea
who took my mattress.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
I've never found it.
Speaker 10 (36:12):
It's just gone.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Oh that's so invasive and so weird that they remade
your bed.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
I was like, okay, cool metress gone, but then that
remade the bed.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Oh it's not an easy thing to get away with either.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Like you really, I feel like you need more than
one person too. Surely that's a multiple person job. Kristin
is joining us next light hundred their heads. Hi, Christen Hire,
are you yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Very well? What got stolen from you?
Speaker 2 (36:44):
We had an open home when we were selling our
house and all my half used makeup got stolen. Not
no crusty scarism foundation?
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Yeah, oh my god, grim like that's not a hygiena someone.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
Did you ever get I had a bad case of pink.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Cama karma? Christie?
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Did you?
Speaker 4 (37:13):
I'm guessing you never really got to the bottom of
it either.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
No, And I think what annoyed made the most was
the land agent tried to blame my daughter on and saying, oh,
your child probably stole it.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
Kristin, thank you so much for your cool. We have
got a double bass for you to go check out Wicked,
which is in cinemas tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Fantastic, Thank you.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
There are some great texts coming in as well. Page
someone said, someone broke into my cast or my half
drunk coke. They smashed the little boom window at the back,
which is so expensive to replace, and they only took
my coke.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Oh my god. What about this one?
Speaker 1 (37:49):
At Uni and Doneda and Hall of Residence, My friend
had a nice understake and found out there was a
clip Dominiac on our floor someone who steals stuff.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
Lucky for me, she only got my shampoo.
Speaker 5 (38:02):
Mady ANDJ Mady and PJ the.
Speaker 4 (38:06):
Podcast, I would say famously, I'm not great with technology.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Oh my god, this is like the third time in
today's show that we talked about technology.
Speaker 4 (38:18):
This is what happens to me. Low level stuff happens
that most people are able to deal with, and I
just don't. I don't know what to do. I don't
understand it, and things always go wrong and they get
very frustrated, very frustrated.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Do you have a good TICH friend that you can
just always call upon, because that's always quite helpful.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
Maybe I do, But sometimes I'm like, I'm not calling
this guy to ask him, to ask him why I
can't find like a file that I've saved to my
phone or something, you know. So today I was sitting
at home and our internet was funny yep, and it
just was like internet wasn't working and everything seemed so slow,
(39:02):
and then all of a sudden it just stopped working.
And I wanted to watch an episode of Only Murders
in the Building today, yes, before I came to work.
And I couldn't watch it because the obviously our TV,
like how smart TV works through the internet, so you can't.
I couldn't bring up the app.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
You didn't want to be deprived of your one simple
pleasure before heading off to it, just a.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
Cheeky little half hour episode of Only from the Building.
So sue me, so sue me.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
I hear you, sister.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
I couldn't get it to work, and I was getting
very frustrated. But I thought, I can do this. I
can fix it. So our router for our internet lives
in the cupboard above our fridge. So I got up
high and I looked above the fridge and the router
was turned on. But there were a couple of flashing
blue lights and I don't know, I don't know what
(39:48):
this means. Then I thought maybe a cord has like
gotten unplugged, round tangled or something. But the cord runs
from the from the shelf of our fridge down behind
the fridge.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
That's annoying.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
So I had to pull the fridge out. And I'm
home alone, so I'm pulling the fridge out. First of all,
a few things happened. One, I got stuck because it's
a narrow the fridge. It's narrow, a narrow space, and
I got stuck between the wall and the fridge. And
then I had to push it.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
It's such a flustered friend hot mess, a hot mess.
Speaker 4 (40:25):
And already I was like this, why is the internet working?
I can't get this sordid Now I'm stuck. But now
I'm stuck between the fridge and the wall. Anyway, I
got myself unstuck, and then I managed to pull the
fridge out, and I got behind the fridge to have
a look at the thing, and I realized, behind my
(40:46):
fridge it is the most disgusting place I have ever been.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
Like cobweb's dirt, dust, flies.
Speaker 4 (40:58):
Flies, spiders, a dead cock croach, all of this dust everywhere.
It's like when you open your ear POD's case and
you go, who I shouldn't have looked. I shouldn't have looked.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
Under the couch.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
You'll also find equal discussing this under the couch I've found.
Speaker 4 (41:17):
So here is my question. I would love to know.
Is anyone actually getting behind their fridge with any kind
of regularity to clean it? Or is are we just
agreeing as a society that we just leave the fridge
where it is, we don't look behind it, and we
just deal with it when we move out like a
(41:38):
normal person.
Speaker 1 (41:39):
It's your free pass and cleaning you just don't like.
Out of sight, out of mind, you don't have to deal.
Speaker 4 (41:44):
Don't go there.
Speaker 5 (41:46):
The podcast
Speaker 4 (41:49):
That
The Hits Drive with Maddy and PJ. Thanks to chimis
Wee House, the Real House of Fragrances.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And on that.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hey, everyone, welcome to the podcast. So recently I've had
an epiphany, a realization call it what you like, that
I really want to know the gender of a baby
this time around. Charlie, a two year old, was a surprise.
He was a total surprise, which is amazing. There's something
in me this time that just wants to know. I
(00:31):
just I want to know. So we're coming up to
a Nick scan where you can actually choose to.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Find out or not, and I really want to do it,
but I'm just going to keep PJ across.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
He's not there.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
He really wanted the surprise, but now he's starting to
work out how he can make it work for him.
So he's like, well, yeah, yeah, we can do that
as long as I can go hunting.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Oh within that month after the baby's born. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
not like I don't care that I don't want to
know that much.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
No, absolutely not. So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I think I need a really cool actionly leddy not leddy,
but just an exciting different way.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
A gender reveal.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I think I think I want to do a gender reveal.
I just feel like this has been so busy. I'm like,
it'll be nice to have a few friends around and
celebrate getting halfway.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
And do you think they'd get him across the line
if you could be like, hey, we can have a
fun party. This is what we could do as a
gender reveal. That would be fun. BJ wouldn't it do?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Froth? A burnout? But there is no way I'm letting us.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
You're better than a burnout. You're better than respect. No,
just respect to.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Any absolutely no disrespect. Like fun, it's very fun. I
just want something a bit different.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
That's that, That's what I mean. It's like we've seen burnout.
Do you want something? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I think we take this on the show tomorrow and
when actually get people's thoughts for you to slide into
our DMS the hat Strave with Maddie and PJ. If
you've got any great ideas, if you did anything that
was super fun and a little bit different, let us know.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
How are you going with everything else? Like, I guess
have you even started thinking of names and stuff?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I got it.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Yeah, we've got a few.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
We've got a few but I'm kind of like not
taking it because last time I was sure Charlie was
Freddy and he popped down and I was like, Nope,
that's Charlie. So I yeah, we've definitely got names, and
we're like always kind of We might be watching TV
and a name pops album and be like, hmmm, Humphrey,
what do you think about Humphrey, And then we.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Have like a little chat.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
We are actually, luckily on the same page about probably
ninety percent of names.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
That's good. That's a good amount to be pa with.
And sometimes though, I reckon that extra ten percent is
where the gold comes from, because you're like possibly, because
then there are names that you're like I would have
never even and thought of that, But actually that's really cool.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I really tried to get Alfie across to lunch. Jude
Law was in Alfie and Alfie. Yeah, Alfie's I can't
get that across the line of page. It's one of
the ones I can't get across. Have a check No,
But maybe he's right. Maybe Alfie's like a cute little boy,
(03:24):
but then he just grows up to be a player
like Drede Law.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah, is there a prophecy in I wonder if a
prophecy in a name.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I reckon being called Polly has impacted me as a person,
because I was going to be called Alex or Kate.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
They were the other options my parents were going to
call me. Can you mention me Alex or Kate?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
I couldn't imagine you are Kate, but I could actually
imagine you and.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Alix what everyone says Alex, Yes, But even then, I
think I'd be quite a large personality for an Alex.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
Yeah, you'd be You'd be a lot for an Alex.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Like Alex's are cool.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Alex's are, but Polly's are cool.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I don't know, like any Polly's.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And I'm still waiting for Polly to have her time again,
you know what I mean. Like Polly still hasn't gone
through a popular phase of people calling their babies Polly.
There were lots of Poppies for a while, but not Polly.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Matt and Matthew, Like Matt Matthew. That was, like I think,
in the nineties, number one for a very long time
in the late eighties early nineties for boy names. I
think it was very very high on the list. I
don't know you'd get I don't think you'd get mini
mats anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
No, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
It's it's yeah, it is. You're like, it's your your
Jack's and your Alfie's and your free.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
D D Leo Charlie Harry.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yes, it's all of those ones.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, so much so after names like yeah, like not robots,
you're not having Roberts. No, you're not having metthew You're
not having Brendan.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
It's a tough one.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It's a wild cycle anyway. So we'll get more into
that tomorrow. But coming up on the show today, we
launch a brand new game called mean Girls, where we
bring funny at least we think they're funny memes to
the table.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
I liked it. I'd love to know what other people think,
but I liked it. I thought it worked really well.
We also talked about an embarrassing case of mistaken identity
that I had today involving a rather famous New Zealander,
and we.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Wanted to know the bizarre thing that was taken. All
of that and more coming up in the podcast.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
The podcast.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
That I feel like I've got a fun There must
be a condition, I reckon where you struggle to recognize
people's faces, because so often I'll see someone and go,
I know that person, but I don't know how I
know them, and I can't place it. It's almost like I.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Wonder if it gets murkier the older you gets, and
it's not a dog at you, that's a deg at
may turn because I feel like more and more I'm
having those moments where I'm like, oh, I know I've
met you before, and I cannot, for the life of
me place it.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, so that happens to me quite quite often. But
I had a very unique experience in the similar realm today,
which is that I really thought I had seen someone
that I knew, and I've been I have been finding
this more and more that I'll often wave to someone
thinking it someone else and then realize I don't actually
know the person that I've been waving to.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
And so then do you kind of turn it into
an awkward dance?
Speaker 4 (06:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
It was just like dance move.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
I'm just trying to get my watch like readjusted No,
but today this is bad. I was walking to work
and I saw Linda Top, one of the Top Twins.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh wow, and I'm loyalty.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I love the Top Twins and I've met and I've
met the Top Twins a number of times and they
are amazing and I've always had a good laugh with them.
And every time I see them, they are so kind
and so chatty. They are those they are the New
Zealand celebrities. I reckon that, you go. They are exactly
as you think they're going to be, and they are
(07:30):
exactly what you want them to be. They are just
so generous and so lovely and funny man funny. So
I saw Linda walking down the street in Auckland and
I thought, oh funny, because you know she didn't live here.
So I was walking towards her and I went Linda
(07:51):
and I waved, Oh.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
He's done the big wave, Telly.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
That's a big one, the big wave. It was not
Linda Top, it was it was a middle aged businessman.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well made.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah, I thought you were going to say it was
the other twe No, thank you, that's forgivable.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Absolute Which one's jewels and which one's Linda? You could forgive.
You could guess you could forgive that.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The twin pass.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Mistaking Linda Top, famous top Twin comedian for a middle
aged businessman. That's a whole nother thing.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
I mean, was there anyone closely walking behind uh, because
that's usually you get out of jail free card and
you can sort of divert and pretend that you're talking
to the person.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
So this is what happened. I said, Linda waved. The
businessman saw me, then obviously looked behind him, thinking well,
clearly I'm not someone called Linda, and then realized there
was no one behind him, And so what I had
to do?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
It must have thought you were nuts.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
I pivoted and I started walking back the other way
because I was like, I can't walk past this man.
It makes it so much worse.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
You gotta need to commit. And that's such change.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
It just come so sorry, so well, So I owe
a couple of apologies. One to Linda Top. I owe
you a massive apology for thinking for thinking you were
a middle aged businessman in Auckland. I then ow an
apology to the middle aged businessman for thinking that he
was comedian m Linda Top, do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (09:53):
He went to his computer afterwards and started gurgling Linda, like.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Who the hell is?
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Who did he think? I?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Why does he think I'm Linda?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
It was bad? It was bad?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Oh do you know what it makes us?
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Human.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
When these moments happened, it humbles us.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It brings us back down to earth, and I think
it's necessary every now and then.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
But I'm so glad it wasn't me.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Oh wait, one hundred hits, let's roll with this this afternoon,
or you can text through four for eight seven. When
did you have a case of mistaken identity and you
fully thought.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
It was someone but you got it wrong?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
What was the chaos and awkwardness that ensued after that?
We want to hear your case of mistaken identity?
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Maddy and PJ. Mady and PJ the podcast the Hits.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
When did you get the wrong person?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You really committed, You went in, you said hi, you
gave him a hug, and then oh no, it's actually
not that person you thought it was, like Maddy experienced
on this street today.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
I thought it was a top to end but it
was a middle aged man. So luck. We all have
these moments. We love, we learn, no shame, and you
can stay anonymous. I want to.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'll wait a hundred of the Hits to join the show.
Cherie's joining out. Hello, Hi, how are you very well?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (11:19):
Terre?
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (11:21):
This going a few years ago now my younger days,
some mate sitting up on a blind date. So I
rocked along to this restaurant in town and wrongfully assumed
it was a really good looking guy sitting on his
end of the table.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
Oh my god, Yeah, we know, sat down, started talking.
He got up and I thought he was going to
give me a hug, so I went to hug him,
and at that precise time, his wife and kids came
back to the table. There is he thought it was.
(12:01):
They were really good about it. But I think that
would single handedly be the most embarrassing awkward moment.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
In my life. Did the guy that you were actually
meant to be meeting did he see any of this unfold?
Speaker 9 (12:13):
Yeah, and that's that's the funny. But and he sort
of came in, probably as I was hugging this other guy,
because he sort of knew of me, And then it
was We still talk about it now, and it's yeah,
it's it's cringe material now even thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
That is, he didn't end up married to the guy
that he went on the date with.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
No, no, no, no, but he ends up berrying a friend.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
So we're still in contact, and.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Yeah, I love that she so much wishful thinking, right,
You're like, of course, the good looking guy at the table,
that's for me. That's for me.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
How's it the cargo this afternoon?
Speaker 10 (12:56):
It's undecisible what it was there with the weather?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Yeah, I think that like that in a few places, Lewana.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah right, well what was your what was your mistaken identity? Sorry?
Speaker 10 (13:06):
I had my few the other days scouting to myself
and his mother about how he lifted hundred kg's at
the gym without anyone squatting for him, more helping in
whatever the word is, and his mom ground him and pen,
you're not supposed to do that, like what if you died?
Blah blah blah. And I just happened to go to
the gym yesterday and there was him doing the weight
(13:31):
and I walked up and whispered in his ear and
see your mom seeking not her to do that, and
he spun around and it was not much. It was
like some late thirty year old man.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
There's bold going going in for a whisper talking about
your mom.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
There's nothing there would be nothing creepier than a stranger
whispering in your ear.
Speaker 11 (13:57):
Your tea boy, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Maddy and PJ, the podcast, the Heads, the People's Poll,
the People's Poll. Everybody come together.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It's the people's Poll, but it's time for our people's part.
We do this every day on the show. W You
can always go on way in Instagram page the Hurts
Drive with Maddy and PJ. We put it up on
our story so you can vote ahead of anyone else.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
So the three of us, that is you and me,
Page and then producers here, we hang out a lot.
We spend a lot of time together. Yeah, And so
I realized that I do something and I'm wondering if
it's just because we know each other so well and
we spend a lot of time together, or whether this
is a very abnormal thing to do. But whenever I
(14:57):
need to have a little break to use the bathroom
here at work, I will leave the room by saying,
so I'm just going to go. I've got to go, Pete.
And I realized that I do this often the other day,
and I thought to myself, why do I have to
announce what it is that I'm going to do.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I think it's more you're announcing the fact that you're
not doing the other business.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
You want to know. It's not an awkward thing that
you're leaving the room to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
But also I think in our job it is actually
necessary information to know because often we're going between songs,
we're going between ads, yes, and there's a time limit,
and so if you're going number one, it's a quick one.
You do sometimes to specify what you're doing when.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
You're going to be taking a little bit longer.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
But could I not just say I'm going to the bathroom?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yea, but how long? How long are you going to be?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Yeah? Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I think it's a very It comes down to who
you're spending time with always like and most colleagues probably
won't do this to their fellow workmatees. We probably have
quite a unique situation where we are very intimate and
we spend a lot of time.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
And we share a lot of ourselves with each other
a lot.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
A lot.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
So I don't know if this is common practice, but
I would be very curious to know if it is
it a a kiwi thing or just a regular thing
that people do before going to the bathroom informing the
people around them.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah, so we've given you on the people's poll today
three options. Do you just leave the room and not
say anything like a normal person, leave the room and
say I'm going to the bathroom, or leave the room
and tell the people specifically what it is that you're
coming to do in the pay.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Guys, just right, all right, text your results through to four, four, eight, seven,
will come back and unveil the most common as in there,
Mary J.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
Many and PJ. The podcast, the heads, the People's.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Poll, the People's Poll, everybody comes together.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
It's the People's Poll.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
The question today on the People's Poll, when you need
to go to the bathroom, do you specifically tell people
what you're going to do? Or do you just say
I'm going to the bathroom? Or do you even just
leave unannounced? Probably like the most normal person would.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
We can't read all these ticks. People have gone into
quite graphic details from what they say. They pop off
the low.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
Some of them we can say, the Hydra slide, You've
got to drop the kids off at the Hydra slides.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Since Mike, I love it, who's edited a lull at
the end? I stoked with that one.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Someone else said, our whole household informs everybody what we're doing,
sometimes in great detail.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Someone said, totally an announced the spacifics got to be specific,
at least it's a number two.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Then I just say I'm just going to the thank.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
You Alice is one hundred percent aways announce it to
the room. Need do we off for a week, going
to do a wee? Where's the bathroom? And need to
we I've always done it. I'd feel worried slinking away
for a week now without doing it.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
This is interesting.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I'd say majority of the texts coming through, they like
to announce to people what they're going to be doing
in the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
And thank you for the for the solidarity standing with me.
I would say, we are those of us who have
ticked there in or those of us who have told
that story are in the minority.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Oh, Kim's joining us, Oh right, hundred hats good? I
kem hi.
Speaker 12 (18:35):
How are you going?
Speaker 6 (18:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Not too bad? What are your thoughts? What do you
guys do?
Speaker 12 (18:41):
Well? Hay. He turns around where maybe somewhere where he
doesn't want people to know, he will say, I'm not
just going to go and drop the kids off at
the pool.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Yeah that's a classic classic. Yeah yeah. Yeah. The thing is, though,
I think most people do know what he's says everyone knows.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
I don't think that's there's nothing subtle about it at all.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
So if we look at our Instagram poll, only eight
percent of people said that they will say specifically what
they're off to do, only eight percent thirty eight cent said,
thirty eight percent said I'm going to the bathroom. That's
all you need to say, and then fifty three percent
of people said, you don't need to say anything, just
walk out of the room.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Okay, So once again we're in the minority.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Mary and PJ Many and PJ the podcast that.
Speaker 13 (19:39):
So relatable, that's totally Meuty Many and Pj's me mcgirls.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
So we thought, look, we're all guilty and partial to
sending memes. It is our love language, and it is
a way that you can say so much with so little.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
It's called pibling. When you send loved ones people you
care about, memes that you think that they will love
or think that they will relate to. That's what they
call it. There's a term for it.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
So we thought we could start a segment on the
show Litterally around this where each week we come to
the table with a relatable meme that we've seen and
see if others relate to it as well. This is
gonna be the interesting part. We could be standing out
on our own here. Okay, so judgment free zone. Maybe,
(20:29):
unless your meme's really bad, Sarah on, maybe Maddy Maddie
kicks kick us off.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
What have you got?
Speaker 4 (20:38):
My meme utilizes the imagery of SpongeBob SquarePants. Yep, so
it has two images. The first image is Patrick Starr
put SpongeBob's friend trying to walk through a door with
a wooden plank against his head and he can't get
through the door, basically just being an absolute more on,
a total idiot. And it says my brain trying to
(21:01):
remember anything important, basically saying it doesn't know how to function,
like I can't operate. I forget I honestly, I cannot
remember what I did yesterday.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
But then frivolous information, you'll remember it all exactly.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
So the second part of the meme is it says,
my brain remembering one bad thing I did ten years ago,
and it's got Patrick Starr with a microscope doing a
scientific analysis because it is true, right, your brain just
doesn't let you forget these stupid things that you did,
even though everyone else has forgotten all about.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Them, Like the moment I was running through the playground
at primary school when I had a hot pie on me,
and I remember tripping over the border of the playground
and I went headfirst into my mince pie in the playground. Now,
I know that's so irrelevant and doesn't seem significant, but
when you're at.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
A totally really scars you for life. I went to
kick a book a ball. A bunch of the jocks
were playing rugby at lunchtime, and the ball got kicked
my way by excellent And I was walking through the
playground and I said, kick it back to me, Kick
it back to me, and I picked up the ball
and I went to kick it and I missed the
ball and slipped over. Oh sweet, sticks with you. Sticks
(22:16):
with you? But can I remember what I had for
lunch yesterday? No, nope, it's good produces, Sirah, You're up next.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Okay.
Speaker 13 (22:26):
I think I may have missed the mark a little bit,
and I've gone for more of like a joke, which I.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Think is actually not Look, it's the first week, so
we'll just find our feet. Okay.
Speaker 13 (22:36):
So you at a job interview, okay, and the boss
says can you perform under pressure? And then you go,
I'm not sure I know all the lyrics, but here
goes nothing. It's not really relatable.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
It's so aw good explain but you got that right?
Speaker 4 (23:00):
Was good?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
That was good? Okay?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
My one is working at any office is like, okay,
we're transitioning to selearia, but payroll is still in bullfrog.
Did you see my nose cock post? So meet your
time card on fireplace, then hit me up on smackdog.
Do not upload the crackers without yamma approval?
Speaker 3 (23:20):
That really oh yeah boy?
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Because there is like so many different types of technology
that comes from work, then I'm like, seriously, guys, can
we not just streamline this and to something universal that
we all use it home?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
I agree with you?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
What any of these words?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
I keep getting an email from the service center saying
there are seven technology modules I haven't completed yet because
I don't know how to.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Do any neither because they don't teach us.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
They expect us to know what yamma frog and fireplace
and all these silly applications are. So my question this
afternoon is is this something you should really know how
to do at work? But you still don't like it's
actually probably an important part of your role totally, and
you kind of just you just glaze over it and
(24:12):
you pretend that yeah, you wing it, but you don't
really know what you're doing. Oh wait, one hundred the
hat so you can text four for eight seven. What
is the thing that you should know how to.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Do at your work but you still don't know?
Speaker 5 (24:24):
Hard Man to podcast.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
We're asking the question, is there something you really should
know how to do at work but you still don't
know how to do?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Inspired by a man?
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Which see working at any office is like, okay, we're
transitioning to selaria, but payroll is still in bull from
did you see my nose cook?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Poke nose cock?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Post, submit your time card on Fireplace and then hit
me up on smackdog. Do not upload crackers without yeamma approval.
That is literally where I feel like every day when
I get an email from people, I'm so confused. So
we want to know what do you not know how
to do on the job that you really should No,
Jodie is joining us, Hi jots Hi, guys, how are
(25:05):
you good?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
What do you do for a living?
Speaker 12 (25:07):
First of all, I'm a credit controller and I'm supposed
to be pro using Excel spreadsheets and and I struggle.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
I hate anything like that.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
I use them every day, and you know, and it's
easier just to kind of print front whatever you're working
on out and kind of you know, just check it
off with your marker rather than try and you know,
highlight and pace and color and what what you've done.
And if I have to do a spreadsheet report, it
(25:47):
takes a really amazing date, makes it really crappy.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Spreadsheets to me, Like I like the I like the
maths version of yes, like paperwork.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
I just I just don't understand that AI can do
that for us, right surely, like do the things that
we actually needed to.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Sasha is joining us? Hi, Sasha, how are you good?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Hell?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it's Sasha, isn't It's Sasha the Australian vision Sasha.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Hello, What do you do for a living?
Speaker 3 (26:18):
And what can't you do?
Speaker 7 (26:20):
I work in a restaurant, so we're like supposed to
know how to use and turn off the dishwasher at
the end of shift, but I was never properly shown.
So whenever the like glasses trays get full, I'll occupy
myself of a different task.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Only they've got off by now.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
You keep avoiding it for as long as you can, Sash.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Let's read it up with Shelley. Hi, Shelley, what job
do you do and what simple task can you still
not do?
Speaker 10 (26:55):
So I do a lot of relieving. And there's a
year seven advanced maths class that I'm often covering, and
they are doing like year nine and ten work.
Speaker 6 (27:05):
And it's multi steps balancing.
Speaker 10 (27:09):
Algebraic equations and all sorts. And I've got no clothes,
so I find videos and I google terms and the.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Kids love it.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
I think it's fantastic.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Shelley's using the Maths for Dummies book.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
That's for dummies YouTube, right, is so good.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
The podcast.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
Technology is one of these funny things that you know, me,
I struggle with it at the best of times, But
when I really stop and think about it, I'm like,
I don't understand how this even works, Like how does
this thing operate?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Some people are just blessed with understanding technology, and others
are not bleased with that. And I've just come to
that conclusion. You know, sometimes you just have to embrace it.
You just know that great as technology.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
I'll tell you what I really don't understan at the moment,
and it's chet GPT. It's just one of these things
that's still I don't use it often, but when I do,
i'm off. I always go, how how have you just
spat this thing out at me? Very quickly?
Speaker 1 (28:14):
And so what I've gathered from it is the more
you give it, the more it builds. Right, So you
kind of build it yourself in a way.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Yeah, absolutely you do, and so I think you do.
Just have to keep using it more and more and more.
But I realized that I do something today because I
was using it for something else that I'm doing outside
of work, and it gave me something that I was
really impressed by. Like I was like, wow, you've really
done a good job of what I asked you to
(28:43):
give me. This is really top notch, and you sped
it out in about two seconds. But then I realized
I treatd chet GPT like a person.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Something you're gonna say, like a dog, good little little
woo almost.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Like that nobody, but like a person. I was so
proud of it for giving me this thing that I
missaged it back and I said, wow, you're really good
at this, Thank you so much. And I was like
very effusive in my praise of this robot, like it's
a computer, but I was treating it like a person.
(29:20):
And I put this up on my Instagram story, and boy,
oh boy, I was inundated with messengers all pretty much
saying the same thing. So I got some of the
girls in the office to recreate some of the dms
that I got on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Yeah, I totally do this too. I feel like I
need to be nice school when they take over the world.
Speaker 13 (29:36):
Absolutely, when the robots take over, they'll remember who use
their manners, or at least that's how I justify the
links of my people pleasing tendencies.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
I one hundred percent do this. We want them to
think humans are awesome.
Speaker 13 (29:46):
Plus I schedule takeover one day, so if I'm nice
to it, maybe I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Oh she used to say please and thank you?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Yeah, I mean I do.
Speaker 13 (29:53):
It's like a censure to say thank you. So the
AI overlord spare your life when they take over the world.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
Right, So is the thing everyone was saying. The robots
are going to take over, and you'd best believe I
want them to remember that I was nice to them.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Oh my god, I need to look back and see
how I've treated my little chet GPT. I don't know
if I've been as nice and care.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Well, you'd better start saying please and thank you. But
it turns out it's actually backed up by science. Peach
an article in Forbes said that recent researchers revealed politeness
isn't just about etiquette, it actually measurably improves AI performance.
So I found that impolite prompts often resulted in poorer performance,
including increased erarors, stronger biases, and notable emissions of important information.
(30:42):
So chet GPT like bugger, you didn't use you, Please
and thank I'll show you.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Oh my god, I think I just say hey, can
you give me this? And I don't say pleases or
thank you? Do we need to do xx?
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Or is that too much? Are they going to think
I'm coming on to that?
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Given it, give an XX, give an ex and it'll remember,
It'll remember.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Mary and PJ. Mary and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Sorry story coming out of Arthur Heart Today. A sulfur
crested cockatoo named Pepper is thought to have been stolen
from Staglan's Wildlife Reserve and Cafe No Really, and apparently
it was. It was well known for always saying Hello darling,
Hello darling, and then in staff and visitors and are
(31:35):
worried about the bird's safety. But they do say she'll
be easily identifiable. So that's I guess a good part
of it. But they say, if anyone is coming across
a bird that says hello darling and has two calls
were saying on her left foot, we can absolutely say
that is Pepper. So if you're in the area, Keith
and I art because it sounds like she is a
(31:55):
very special bird.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
Imagine if you walked into someone's house and they said,
I've got a new bird, and then you heard hello, darling.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Excuse me, I just saying to make a fun call.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Would you get the cops out?
Speaker 3 (32:06):
What would you do? Would you take the bird? What
would you do? I don't know what you do?
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Would you call the cops?
Speaker 3 (32:12):
No, I don't know if it's a cops situation.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
And weird it's a weird thing to steal, and then
it be a weird thing to report.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
It is a strange thing to steal, particularly because it
has such an easily identifying feature, right, totally.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
We once this is going on a bit of a
detour here.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
But we once through a bit of a house party
back in the day, in the early twenties when I
was living in the big smoke of Auckland. And the
next day, you know, you're cleaning up the house and
you're doing it's just a punish and the floors are
all sticky and whatnot. There was something that was missing
from our house at day, and it was a really
really bizarre theft, Like it's not what you'd expect, like
(32:55):
what would you expect to maybe go messing after a party?
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Oh like glass where maybe? Or money or yullye boom
maybe yeah, laptop maybe My.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Electric tooth brush was on what Yeah, so it was
in the bathroom downstairs. I vividly remember it by the basin.
The party happened and then boom, tooth brush going. And
to this day I have not worked out who thieved
my electric toothbrush.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
Ryan still talks about his sister throwing a party at
their house as teenagers, and Ryan was a bit younger
and he had those little like flip deck skateboards.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
That oh yeah, the hot wheels, yeah, maybet.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
Wheels, and you'd like you'd be able to flip them
and do little tricks with your fingers and stuff, and
Ryan said, someone stole one of the like one of
the party goalers, the teenage party goers at his sister's
house party stole his flip decks skateboard. And he still
talks about it to the stay. He's in his thirties,
he's still.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
I hear you, run, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
I still don't know who took the tooth and it
back fools make oh wait, hundred the hats you can
text through four full eight seven. We've actually got tickets
to give away for you to check out Wicked, which
is out in cinemas tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
What was the bizarre thing that was taken that just
doesn't make sense?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Yeah, like someone broke into your car and they stole
the car manual, like something that just.
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Does not end up. Why did they take it? We
want to know. I waite hundred of hats you can
text through four full eight seven.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
Maddy J.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
May and PJ the podcast The Heads.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
Oh my god, the text is blown up. We wanted
to know what was the bizarre thing that was taken?
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Like it was stolen, but you really don't understand why
in the first place someone would want to take.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
That because lots of things get stolen, and that's awful,
But often the things that you could understand, things that
you could absolutely get money for, you know.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Okay, for example, on the TX machine four four eight seven,
you can text through.
Speaker 11 (35:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I had my orthotics stolen while I was at a
time bessage place. That was weird because they're literally designed
for my feet, so.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
I'm not going to be comfortable on someone else.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Someone else said, we were having a few drinks at
mine and someone stole my shampoo and conditioner.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Let's go to Larissa on all right hand.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
The hurts Hi Larissa Hi hallowiod very well.
Speaker 10 (35:36):
It was supposed to be a small patty, but it
ended up being a lot more than.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Just a few people. We're all drunk and we ended
up all crashing out in the garage in the backyard.
Woke up in the morning and my mattress was gone
on my bed what what the worst part was had
fully remade my bed like the sheep was put back
on the the pillows were like back up with the
(36:02):
pillows belong and they was put back on there as well.
And I'm still going to say, I have no idea
who took my mattress.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
I've never found it.
Speaker 10 (36:12):
It's just gone.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Oh that's so invasive and so weird that they remade
your bed.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
I was like, okay, cool metress gone, but then that
remade the bed.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Oh it's not an easy thing to get away with either.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Like you really, I feel like you need more than
one person too. Surely that's a multiple person job. Kristin
is joining us next light hundred their heads. Hi, Christen Hire,
are you yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Very well? What got stolen from you?
Speaker 2 (36:44):
We had an open home when we were selling our
house and all my half used makeup got stolen. Not
no crusty scarism foundation?
Speaker 3 (36:59):
Yeah, oh my god, grim like that's not a hygiena someone.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
Did you ever get I had a bad case of pink.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Cama karma? Christie?
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Did you?
Speaker 4 (37:13):
I'm guessing you never really got to the bottom of
it either.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
No, And I think what annoyed made the most was
the land agent tried to blame my daughter on and saying, oh,
your child probably stole it.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
Kristin, thank you so much for your cool. We have
got a double bass for you to go check out Wicked,
which is in cinemas tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Fantastic, Thank you.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
There are some great texts coming in as well. Page
someone said, someone broke into my cast or my half
drunk coke. They smashed the little boom window at the back,
which is so expensive to replace, and they only took
my coke.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Oh my god. What about this one?
Speaker 1 (37:49):
At Uni and Doneda and Hall of Residence, My friend
had a nice understake and found out there was a
clip Dominiac on our floor someone who steals stuff.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
Lucky for me, she only got my shampoo.
Speaker 5 (38:02):
Mady ANDJ Mady and PJ the.
Speaker 4 (38:06):
Podcast, I would say famously, I'm not great with technology.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Oh my god, this is like the third time in
today's show that we talked about technology.
Speaker 4 (38:18):
This is what happens to me. Low level stuff happens
that most people are able to deal with, and I
just don't. I don't know what to do. I don't
understand it, and things always go wrong and they get
very frustrated, very frustrated.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Do you have a good TICH friend that you can
just always call upon, because that's always quite helpful.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
Maybe I do, But sometimes I'm like, I'm not calling
this guy to ask him, to ask him why I
can't find like a file that I've saved to my
phone or something, you know. So today I was sitting
at home and our internet was funny yep, and it
just was like internet wasn't working and everything seemed so slow,
(39:02):
and then all of a sudden it just stopped working.
And I wanted to watch an episode of Only Murders
in the Building today, yes, before I came to work.
And I couldn't watch it because the obviously our TV,
like how smart TV works through the internet, so you can't.
I couldn't bring up the app.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
You didn't want to be deprived of your one simple
pleasure before heading off to it, just a.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
Cheeky little half hour episode of Only from the Building.
So sue me, so sue me.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
I hear you, sister.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
I couldn't get it to work, and I was getting
very frustrated. But I thought, I can do this. I
can fix it. So our router for our internet lives
in the cupboard above our fridge. So I got up
high and I looked above the fridge and the router
was turned on. But there were a couple of flashing
blue lights and I don't know, I don't know what
(39:48):
this means. Then I thought maybe a cord has like
gotten unplugged, round tangled or something. But the cord runs
from the from the shelf of our fridge down behind
the fridge.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
That's annoying.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
So I had to pull the fridge out. And I'm
home alone, so I'm pulling the fridge out. First of all,
a few things happened. One, I got stuck because it's
a narrow the fridge. It's narrow, a narrow space, and
I got stuck between the wall and the fridge. And
then I had to push it.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
It's such a flustered friend hot mess, a hot mess.
Speaker 4 (40:25):
And already I was like this, why is the internet working?
I can't get this sordid Now I'm stuck. But now
I'm stuck between the fridge and the wall. Anyway, I
got myself unstuck, and then I managed to pull the
fridge out, and I got behind the fridge to have
a look at the thing, and I realized, behind my
(40:46):
fridge it is the most disgusting place I have ever been.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
Like cobweb's dirt, dust, flies.
Speaker 4 (40:58):
Flies, spiders, a dead cock croach, all of this dust everywhere.
It's like when you open your ear POD's case and
you go, who I shouldn't have looked. I shouldn't have looked.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
Under the couch.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
You'll also find equal discussing this under the couch I've found.
Speaker 4 (41:17):
So here is my question. I would love to know.
Is anyone actually getting behind their fridge with any kind
of regularity to clean it? Or is are we just
agreeing as a society that we just leave the fridge
where it is, we don't look behind it, and we
just deal with it when we move out like a
(41:38):
normal person.
Speaker 1 (41:39):
It's your free pass and cleaning you just don't like.
Out of sight, out of mind, you don't have to deal.
Speaker 4 (41:44):
Don't go there.
Speaker 5 (41:46):
