Really or not, Like guys and girls are different the

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Joy Bye, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Hey, good afternoon, Welcome to your Tuesday. It's literally the
third day of summer, and the complaints that I have
heard coming through over the last two hours about the heat.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And how someone can't deal. We're going up for a
little walk.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Here's what happens to me. As soon as there's any movement.
If I'm sitting still, I'm okay. But as soon as
I put one foot in front of the other, my
body just goes, oh, here we go. It's time for
you to sweat. And then next thing I know, I've
literally rounded a corner and I'm drenched. I'm drenched. I
need to take like I need to bring like three
changes of outfits to work every day.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
I've just noticed you're a bit more reddled the last.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Couple of days. I'll tell you what else. I'll tell
you what else. As soon as summer hits, it was
like all the flies in this country went oh hello,
oh yeah, staring remember remember us.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Do you have a technique because some people say, either
shut or the windows, or you open it all up
so it is out, or you do vinegar final I've
got no clue before any tricks of the trade.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Let me know four four eighth seven. I would love
to know what is the trick to get rid of flies?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
I would love to see you flustered, hot, sweet sweet try.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
I literally need to be a fly on the wall
so I can witness that.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Podcast few tigues coming through about sure far ways to
get rid of those pisky flies that are populating our
houses at the moment.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
A good trick is even with a small fan.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
If you have a bowl of ice, di wret the
fan over the bowl of ice and you get a
nice chili breath.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I don't think it's for the flies. I think they
were talking about.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
That classic maybe all of the text to read. What
about this one Rosemary in the oven?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Is that an a heap of Rosemary in our driveway,
So I'm going to give that a won over the
next few days.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Thank you, yeah, thank you for your texts.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Look, we I feel like the end of year rush.
There's really kicking in. There's a lot of Edmund to
be done, Christmas shopping all of a sudden's on the radar,
and between our meetings and the show kicking off, you
and I are trying to fit in a lot. I
personally ran off to the shop to try and get
some crocs for us son, Charlie, because I realized his
(07:51):
feet are too hot in this weather and his little boots.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Will not suffice.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
So I went to try to get the right size
and the right color, and they didn't have the right color.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
And I was kind of looking around and I was
being a bit fussy.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I really wanted like this khaki little colors and it
looked quite cute, or like a little beigey one, not
like a bright blow. I've had the bright blow. I
wanted to go a little more neutral for summer. And
the woman was having it, and then the other shopkeeper overheard.
Now there was a bit of a time limit, but
like we were getting close to the showkicking off, and
(08:22):
then he was really helpful, and he sort of interjected
and he said, you want me to check with some
other stores and just see if they've got stock nearby?
And I feared, oh, sure, okay, think thank you so much,
thinking it would be like a one and done like
pretty quick, like I can just get an answer.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
He gets on my computer and then and.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Then the computer's like loading and then he's sort of
asking more questions about this precise.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Size and the color and bless them, trying to be helpful,
but sometimes you just so money times money, and.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Then it's sort of like five minutes has passed. Do
I just to him thank you so much?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
What I've actually got to go?
Speaker 6 (09:03):
I know?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But then you have to flight him more because he's
done on this hard work.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
And then we don't get the payoff, and you've now
invested five minutes of your time with no payoff either.
So it's like it's one of those things. Do you
do you keep risking it hoping that you're going to
get an outcome or do you just call it.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'm here like tapping my foot right, I'm just like okay,
we'll go, And then finally he's like nope, they don't have.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That, and I sprinted out.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
That door and listening it was being helpful. But sometimes
you just I think I should have just said, look,
I've actually gonna go in like a ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
But you just feel too rude, don't you.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It's like that scene, you know, the scene from Love
actually with Rock my favorite, and the guy's like, hurry up,
hurry up, would you.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Like that gift?
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Right?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
And then he guys puts like leavender on the top.
That's one of my favorites. It was a little bit
like that.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Ah the Christmas.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Season emptyj Many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I was coming into work today and as I walk,
because we park our car across in a different building,
so there's a little walk in between the car park
and the building. So I was walking to work and
I ran into a guy that I used to work
with for a number of years, so I haven't seen
him ages. It was so nice to see him, and
(10:25):
we were catching up on the street and then he
said to me, what are you doing over the next
wee while? And I said, oh, you know, just finishing
off work and then going away for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
He said, let's try and squeeze in a time for
a catch up for a drink. And I thought about it,
and I thought to myself, there is no way I
am getting a drink and between now and Christmas, it's
just like I'm calling I'm calling it. It's not happening.
So let's not pretend like it's going to Yeah, and
(10:54):
I said, let's kick that to twenty twenty five. That
is a next year problem, not problem, but next year.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Shout out to Ham a piece of listening and next.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Year event the admin of the organizing the catch up
as the next year problem, Madye.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Knowing you, you're going to have to put that as
a reminder in your camera so you don't forget to
actually do that.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Absolutely will. But I just thought there are certain things
that you know at this time of year, they ain't happening.
They ain't patten them before the end of the year.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I've got two examples. First of all, our winning clan
actually reached out last night. She just wants to go
for lunch as well and just catch up, you know,
nearly a year on, and she was like, should we
just rescheduled to.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
The new year, And I was like, yes, please, you.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Are speaking my language. Also, we've been on the hunt
for a new car, oh.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
God right, for as long, for as long as we've
been doing this radio show for.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
And my husband and I had the executive decision to just.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Chuck it into twenty twenty five. Deal with that next year.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
We'll get the car ready and then we can slid
in January or February, will deal with then.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
So, look, maybe other people out there are doing similar things,
you know, maybe it's just some stuff you're like, actually,
don't have the brain capacity for this for the next
twenty eight or so days.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And the beauty is we're in that absolute zone where
you can do that guilt free. There's no judgment. If
you say let's kick that to twenty twenty five, everyone goes, yep,
totally on board with that, absolutely understand, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
So the question is, now, oh, eight hundred, the Hats,
what are you kackaying to twenty twenty five?
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Give us a call. You can take you through four
for eighty seven.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Butt on the back burner, checking it on delay till
twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Give us a call. Oh wait, hundred the hat.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Maddy and PJ Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
The Heads, we're asking the question what are you kicking
until twenty twenty five? We're officially in the zone where
you can get away guilt free with postponing things you
don't want to do right now, because it's nearly the
end of the year. There's so much going on, there's
a frenzy. Let's just do it in the new year.
We'll just deal with it next year. I reckon, You
want to know what are you putting off?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I reckon, there will be so many people with their
outlook calendar, just go and shove that into twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Have you ever been bold enough to just delete all
of your emails?
Speaker 5 (13:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I deleted a whole lot the other day. I'm kind
of feeling I'm kind of feeling crazy. I can't because
I don't fit on my first one. I don't fit
my clothes at the moment, pregnant, I feel like throwing
all my clothes away, like deleting all my emails and
starting for shitting.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
She's sitting people getting guys.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Catherine's joining us. What are you kicking until twenty twenty five?
Speaker 7 (13:50):
So I keep a list of like walks and hips,
but I want to do each year, and they're not
necessarily always these massive one or two day ones, but
I'm kicking at least two. So I want to get
done this year that that's just going to have to
wait till next year.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, that's a twenty twenty five. That's a twenty twenty
five problem, Catherine.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
Yeah, I mean I've done.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Enough walks to though I feel too bad about it.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
That's very good of you to be planning more. I
need to be. I need to be more like you.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
I have I have a toddler, so I find it
slightly easier to kind of look at what I want
to get done in a year and then try and
plan it out on what months is going to work
and all that. So yeah, I'm very big on the
spreadsheets and pleasing list.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
But yeah, but there's definitely things that could be chatted
to twenty twenty five. What to the dairy instead walk
to the.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Exactly, she'll be right, and none's joining us. What are
you coocking till twenty twenty five?
Speaker 4 (14:46):

get to an agreement had them all born up, and
I just don't have time.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
To know at the courts. Yeah, and honestly, what's an
extra few weeks?
Speaker 3 (15:02):
You know, I know, I know.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That'll be so ignorant growing up.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Just how long the process can take for a divorce
like it does it?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
It's a long time, doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Definitely coming to an agreement on stuff?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Oh well, we're thinking of you in twenty twenty five.
That'll be a weight off the shoulders and shit done

Speaker 10 (16:15):
The podcast that the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody
comes together.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
It's the people.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Today's question is taking us down memory lane because something
happened to one of your friends.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Mady.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
My friend is freshly in a relationship, not even two
months yet, and she told me over the weekend that
she's told her new partner that she loves them.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
How long?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Not quite two months? And I look, when you know,
you know.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Oh, you absolutely do.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I would say, usually it's fromably between three.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
To six months.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, I was four. I was four months with Ryan.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
I've been going through my messenger archive because I did
a long distance with Bja. I think it was around
so we met New Year's Eve twenty seventeen. I think
it was around the last weekend of March. So yeah,
it was probably about three months months beginning of April year.
But oh my god, it's hilarious. How cute we used
(17:24):
to be looking at.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
The hosted it first? It first.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
So look, there are differing opinions on the issue. I
think what happened is we may have had a couple
of drinkies and I thought he said it, and so
I set it back.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
But then I actually don't think he said it. I
actually said it first.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Then he was totally going to say it like it
was the vine and there was the weekend and.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
He met my family.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
It was all you know, So yeah, he will tell
you that I said it first.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
But I thought.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That Ryan still gives me a hard time about the
first time because I said it first. Surprised. Yeah, I
had his best friend to got married over on way
Hiki and we'd only been together for a few months,
so you know, I wasn't actually a guest at the
wedding because we hadn't known each other for that long.
But she had a bit of a hiccup with her
(18:21):
the driver of the courtesy van for the wedding. So
I said, oh, come and drive people from the venue
back to their accommodation. And at about two am, after
I had furied the last group home. Why did I
agree to do that? And then I thought, I don't
know why, because I love this man. So I told
Ryan that night, I said I did what I did
(18:42):
tonight because I love you. And Ryan still gives me
a hard tough about that. He says it was the
cheesiest way to ever tell someone you loved.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Were you stone colds ober?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
And he was not absolutely absolutely Yeah, did you get
the response you wanted?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I did get and I love you back, but it
was with like gin breath.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Okay, So let's throw it out there.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
When do you think is the right time to say
I love you on a relationship.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Let's just get a gauge. Let's get an average.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
When was the time maybe you said it in your
current relationship?
Speaker 5 (19:16):
Text through many INPJ to the podcast.
Speaker 10 (19:21):
That the People's Poll, the People's Poll. Everybody comes together,
it's the.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
People's Poll today asking other people's pole. How long did
it take for you to say I Love you.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
To your partner?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
You can text through four four eight seven or waiting
on our Instagram page the head stripe.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah. My friend over the weekend was telling me she's
just said I love you to her new partner and
they've been together not quite two months, And I thought,
is that earlier or is that normal?
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Like?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Was that the more common amount of time? I was
just curious to know where people stood, and it's honestly
a real range. Someone said me and my husban and
said it a month in and now we're married and
expecting our first baby together.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
What about this one? After seven years?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
We've been together for over seven years now and a
couple of nights after my daughter's seventh birthday, we had
a barbecue and there's been a few drinks and my
partner told me that he loved me. And the next
day I made sure he was sober, and when he
was he remembered it was like, yep, I love you too,
and do you go after seven years?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
Listen to this one?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Though? My partner have been together three years with a
two year old and we still haven't said it. We
often ask each other, but it never really gets there.
I don't doubt that we do have just never said
it verbally to each other.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I mean, everyone's different and everyone has different needs.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
But I can imagine you and I being like, do
you really do you wop this?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I over say it, I say it too much. Yes,
I know.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I know someone near has said I told my husband
I loved him after five days.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
You know they do say when you.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Know, you know, you just have to be.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Capitable and you just got to do it and make
sure that you say it, well you hear it correctly.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So we put it up on our Instagram page and
you can go and vote every day on our People's poll.
And we gave a bunch of different time frames. The
most common at forty six percent, was three months to
six months, so between their time frame but I was thinking.
Thirty four percent said either straight up between straight away,
(21:27):
like immediately to three months, seventeen percent said six months
to a year, and two percent said one year plus.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Okay. Interesting.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
I was devoted because I had a high school boyfriend
and I think I said it to him, but he
only wanted to say it to one person in his life,
which actually, in hindsight, it's a really Betif I was
stutted at the time, it wasn't you Why don't you lie?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Many INPJ the podcast that's many INPJS Group There.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Group Therapy is a safe space that we enter every
week on the show. And if there's anything going on
in your life where you're like, oh, I just need
a little bit of help, MACU, you don't know what
to do in this.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Situation, reach out.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
You can either text through four four eighty seven or
hit us up at the hits dot co dot NZ's.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I had to sneak out before work today to go
and get myself a present for my secret center. We're
doing a Hits team Secret Center this week.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yes classic you and I left it till the last minute.
I'm hoping mine arrives in time to the desired destination.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Well, as I was walking up the road and I
told you earlier in the show, when it's hot like
this and Muggie and I'm wearing pants, I get very sweety.
As I was trudging up the road to go and
get myself the secret center prison, I thought to myself,
is it worth it? Is it worth it? And I thought, no,
don't be a Grench, don't be a grinch. Joining on
the festive fun, Matty. But then I bent to work
(23:00):
and realized that this is the submission that we got
in for this week group therapy, and all of a sudden,
I was really relating to this person that is emailed
in him Addie and PJ. I work in an office
where every year we do a big secret Center. It's
a whole production names and a hat strict twenty dollars
budget and a group unwrapping session during our Christmas party.
(23:21):
This is sounding very familiar.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Haha.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Here's the thing. I hate it. Every year I either
get something completely useless or end up buying a present
for someone I barely know, and it feels so forced.
This year, I've been thinking about sitting it out, but
a few people have already started hyping it up, and
I know that there's an unspoken expectation to join in.
Would it be rude if I just said no thanks
(23:47):
this year? Or am I being a Christmas grinch by
not participating? Help me figure this out before I make
myself the office scrooch.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Oh, it's a really tough one because I get for
morale and you know, the end of year vibe that
it can create. But I also am like we are
in the middle of the middle of a cost of
living crisis and every dollar counts right now and people
should be able to say, actually, I don't she can't
(24:17):
do it this year?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 9 (24:18):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
And you shouldn't have to feel guilt around that that and.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Bless bless a work team. But you don't necessarily know
everyone intimately. Do you great news if you get your work,
if you get your office bestie, brilliant, But if you
get random Susan who walks works down the hallway, and
you've got no idea what Susan does for a job,
let alone what she enjoys. It's nearly near on impossible
(24:45):
to buy something for her.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Will they do now?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, what they did with our office this year is
that you can actually message them anonymously and be like, Hi,
is there anything you'd like this year?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And then they can do a little whistler.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
You utilize that, didn't you for your one?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
I did, but I couldn't find what she wants. She'm
not gonna give it away.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
What they wanted. I couldn't find it. Something to do
something totally different.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I think you should be able to opt out or
you just pull a sicky on the day.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
That would be my advice.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, but if then, but it is awkward if you
are the only person the team it's not participating.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Well, maybe you you find solidarity with other colleagues.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Her aunt isn't thoosed and you'd be like.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Hey, look, Matilda, Keith, Mary and I this year, we
just don't feel comfortable entering into the secrets. And it's
not because we hate it. We just actually it's just
one too many stresses for us right now and we
cannot participate, and I think you should be You know,
that's your what's.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
The word prerogative, like your.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Prerogative prerogative, you should be able to say that.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I think on the flip side, it is twenty bucks.
Go buy a box of favorites, wrap it up when
bampick you man, get in in a get out. That's
what I say.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
What is your advice for the secret Sanda dilemma? You
can give us a call? Oh, eight hundred hits a
text through four four eight seven.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads, Many and Pj's
group Therapy.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Time for another week of group therapy. She's another Christmas
doozy medie.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yes, I work in an office where every year we
do a big secret sand to this person is written in.
It's a whole production, names and a hat strip, twenty
dollars budget. Here's the thing. I hate it. Every year
I either get something completely useless or end up buying
a present for someone I barely know, and it feels
so forced. This year, I've been thinking about setting it out,
but a few people have already started hyping it up.
(26:43):
And I know there's an unspoken expectation to join in.
Would it be rude if I just said no thanks
this year? Or am I being a Christmas crench by
not participating?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Sandra and Todunga is joining us? Sound? Do you usually
have a little solution?
Speaker 5 (26:59):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (26:59):
Yes, People who want to join in they put their
name themselves on a in the hat, but also under
their names they write down what they want and what
their favorite color or favorite flower or favorite things.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Smart.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
That's good.
Speaker 11 (27:17):
If you're names not in the hat, you just don't
tune up on the day and nobody knows until the day.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Really, well, that's what we've got in our office. There's
an op and opt out like and you should be
able to do that. It shouldn't It shouldn't be like mandatory.
Should you should have the toy?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
But do you think there is this potentially a little
bit of judgment from people if you don't join in,
Like if I'd sat out, if I'd said this year,
bugger that I'm not doing it?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Do you think that is such a sad sat many
fun andreas joining us? What are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (27:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:51):
I just think do I be a grunch?
Speaker 7 (27:53):
I think in the spirit of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
What's Christmas all about?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
It's about giving. And I just think, I mean, full disclosure,
I am a real Christmas fan, but I just think,
come on.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Guys, it's up to the value of twenty dollars.
Speaker 7 (28:09):
Surely you don't have to be maximum limits.
Speaker 8 (28:12):
Just buy something funny. Yes, yeah, you're in the spirit.
Have a bit of fun at the end of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, I get it, Andrea, I get ith something. Life
is very serious this year. Life is travy for a
lot of people. So a little bit of fun and
festive Joey goes a long way and.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You just get a photo of yourself and frame at
is that what you would do?
Speaker 5 (28:36):
Is bad idea.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
On an Alkland's got a solution. What are your thoughts on?
Speaker 12 (28:43):
Yeah, so I was saying, look, if you've got to
do it, spice it up. So what we do is, however,
many people are joining and honor. There's a number. So
so there's twenty people. So there's twenty numbers, and everyone
draws a number. All the presents are in the middle.
Person number one has to take a present and they
got to keep it. They got to deal with that
whatever it is. And in person number two can steal
(29:06):
person number one, or they can take their own and
each present can only be stolen three times.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
And then it's so then you're not trying to come
up with something for a specific person. You can just
keepet fun and interesting and it keeps it entertaining. I
like that idea.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
I like that.
Speaker 8 (29:24):
That's random.
Speaker 12 (29:25):
Yeah, and I suppose you know, hey, steal a few
gifts at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
That's okay. Excuse me, hey, look.
Speaker 12 (29:33):
Christmases from your mates.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
And the Christmas verruh, we've got a kids can Christmas cracker?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Give that coming away on?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (29:43):
Stop it?
Speaker 12 (29:43):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
Speaker 3 (29:47):

Speaker 1 (29:59):
The Heads of a random topic. But I want to
ask the question, and you can text through four four
eight seven.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Is the worst smell that you could spell, the worst
thing that you could spell that stinks the most?
Speaker 2 (30:13):
You You are unbelievable, what I have You've done that?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
So we were in Hawksbay over the weekend and we
stayed with our friends who very kindly took us under
their wing.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
They're literally.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
There's a few weeks out from having their second child,
so you know, wanting to get into the nesting phase.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
I know that, I know that feeling.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
You know, there's there's quite like a stress before the
baby comes, and you want to make everything perfect. So
when we left that home, I wanted to try and
make sure that we hadn't left a mess and made
their life more difficult. But no, no, So we took
the so we took the sheets off and you know,
just made sure that the room was you know, spick
(30:59):
and span. And it wasn't until we were walking out
the door. I had had one of my little canvas
bags just sitting on their couch and then I realized
something had leaked in the bag and I was like, oh,
it must have been my water bottle. No, it wasn't
my water bottle. It was a rogue jar of gurk
(31:23):
that I got in the bag because I'd got I
decided to make like this potato salad the.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Night before, and I was like, no, I'm going to
take those gurkins with me.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I had the jar of gurkins medi in the bag
and the leaked and You could smell it like it's
dunk is so bad, and I was like, oh am
I going to get this out stressful, And then I
felt really bad because our friend Shark comes over and
she's wiping it up.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
I'm like, no, no, no, no, I'll do it. I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
And then I did the sniff test and you could
still smell like the vinegary saline or whatever it is
that it sits in.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
You know how I hate like peckles and ghurkin? Have
I told you? This came from my friend when I
was at early days of high school. Came back from
an overseas trip with this like slime gurkin flavored slime,
and then I forgot about it and left it in
(32:16):
the back of my cupboard. And then when we moved
four years later, I pulled it out and I opened
the lid disgusting.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
So I'd love to know do you think because that smell?
I was like, is I love a pickle but the
smell of furniture stinks?
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Can you beat it? What do you reckon? What smell
is the worst? To spell? Text through four four eight
seven Maddy J.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
The Ebag and Welcome to your Tuesday Night, Maddy MPJ.
Earlier in the show, I was talking about the unfortunate
liquid that I built on a friend's couch when we
stayed there over the weekend. It was a jar of pickles,
and I didn't realize I hadn't quite fastened the lid properly,
(33:11):
and so it had dribbled through.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
My bag onto the couch.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I wanted to know, do you reckon there's a worse
item that you could spill that would stake one more?
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Oh my god, we have got so many things.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
So many, someone said, A toddler's milk bottle that was
left under a cop for who knows how long baby
found out and had a sip. The most rotten milk.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Is a picture of this frozen check and left in
the car in the middle of summer in Australia.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Blue.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
You almost did that earlier this year. I think it
was winter.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Yeah, yeah, I'm a nurse.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
There are many bad things to spill that will ruin
your day, But the antibiotic amoxist sillen smells like catpee
if you crack it open.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
It's the worst to get on your hands.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Broken eggs with a mummified rat We've got this one.
My mate once left a pot of potato and gravy
and his car for about a year. We started smelling
something gross and searched around, found it and stupidly opened it.
Speaker 3 (34:08):
Me and his girlfriend spewed everywhere.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
It was the worst thing I've smelt in my whole life.
But cool think potato and gravy would stink too bad? Uh?
Speaker 2 (34:19):
You know neither potatoes is fine?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Right after a year?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
After a year though, yeah, after a year maybe the podcast.
And only a few days ago, we were in Hawk's
Bay with some lovely winners. Terresa and her mates came
out for a lovely meal with us.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
It was it was nailed, nailed it.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
But No and her lovely friends from Topoor and Aucland came.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Out for dinner with us and we were chatting away.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
It was like we've been mates for years, wasn't that?
Speaker 9 (34:57):
I know?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
They were so great and we had so much fun.
First of all, great meal, great meal, great meal. We
got the old potato grat in no, the fond of potato.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
The potato Okay, we we really over hyped the phone potatoes.
We looked at these pictures online and we're like, this
is going to be the best thing.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
I mean, they were fine, There was nothing wrong with them,
they just weren't quite We'd overhyped it. Sitting at work
on a Friday night looking at the menu, we were hungry,
and we over hyped what these were going to be.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Some would say they could have been mistaken just for
a roast.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Potato that just roast potatoes.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
One of the conversations that came up, and I did
not know how this was initiated, but somehow we started
reciting old school ads from TV. I think it's because
there was the music tally on in the background. And
then we started talking about how like when you get
home from school and you'd watch like C four TV
or like Sunday morning, you chuck it on. And then
(36:00):
we talked about how like when you'd watch TV, it
was such an event and and you know, the ads
would really be watched, you know, like it was because
you'd only see the show once, so you didn't want
to miss when it came back on. So you'd either
got the toilet, you make a cup of tea, or
you'd sit there eleimantly watching each advertisement thoroughly.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Oh yeah, and they were they were a real production
back then, and there were storylines and lots of them
went on for years and years. We started reminiscing about
the Anchor family those ads.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Right, you kind of missed on some of them.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
A few.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Spot the dogs though, with the telecomm ads, those were infamous.
And then we started reciting the ads that we still
remember to this day.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
What's your one? Do you reckon?
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I've got I've got a couple. There's the first one
that I remember is actually a horrible ad. It was
a drink driving ad, and I still remember this line
specifically from the air.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
It's the same day, I'm sorry.
Speaker 13 (37:13):
Sorry to me, say kids, Okay, those those drinks there
was a drink they were they really.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
They were horrific. Maybe they did the job, tell me
about it. But also the phrase don't say sorry to me,
say sorry to his kids kind of entered the lexicon
of society for a while. We're all saying that.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
For a lighter one, the lighter one would have to
be McDonald to make it, Clark.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
You must remember it every time you're in the car
and going near on good message and stuck in my
hair still sing or is the absolute classic di Wired
(38:03):
to now dna ed.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Good I want to have a day years frown Hi Jose.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
Saturday nie ya jaymn.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Nose twice to hear amazing.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Okay, Okay, what we should do is why don't people
call us on one hundred the hats. You recite the
line from the air, and we've got to work out
what the ad was. How good memorys.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
With nostalgic ads?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
If there are some lines that you can remember from
some iconic ads that used to play in the eighties
or nineties or early two many in the podcast, we're
taking a walk down memory lane. We want to see
how well you can remember old school ads word for word,
and then we're going to guess what the ad was
(38:55):
actually promoting a lot of people saying that utter peanut butter,
nutter yes from Sanitarium, And you just said in the
news literally broke like within the last twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
So I'd seen these teats come in and then we
started singing the song from Sanitarium and then literally it
was like it was like fate. I got a push
notification from the Herald saying Sanitarium ceases production of its
peanut butter range. What not making peanut butter anymore?
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Okay, let's have some fun with us and go to
the finds. Melanie is joining us first time. Melanie, Hello,
how are you good?
Speaker 3 (39:35):

Don't be jack.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
No, No, I'm just saying I don't think we were.
I don't think it was on TV when we were.
It was beyond our times, beyond our time slide.
Speaker 7 (40:23):
It was really funny. It was a family and it
was you know, two kids that are born, and a
girl said in the back, and there was something about
we wanted some dinner, and then it was here you go,
see you go, and I said.

When does your voice start breaking? And what was your
puberty experience?

Speaker 3 (00:41):
I think at high school.
Speaker 2 (00:43):

I was very much like I had a real baby
face for a very long time, puppy fat for a
very long time.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I just my voice broke a few times in the
show today and I was like, man, that have been
an ordeal.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I don't think I had a really like some people
have a really dramatic change. I don't think I had
a super dramatic one.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Is it wrong? No?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
No, no, are you self censoring?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I am self censoring?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Very good, bree Yeah, fear, because I do have it.

I have vivid memories of staying at my friend Allie's.
She had like a sleepover, and I think we watched
that movie speaking of puberty.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I have quite a scarring moment.

I think I was probably on the earlier side, maybe
like twelve, even twelve.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I don't know if that's.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Really or not, Like guys and girls are different the
way girls go earlier are a few years later.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yeah, but I vividly, vividly remember sitting at my friend
Mitchell's house and having the very first like open conversation
I've ever had with anyone about like self pleasure.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Yeah. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
It's like awkward teenage boys being like, have you done
it yet?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I remember, I remember spotting my first pube.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
I was like ten in the Sharot boarding school.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Amazing. Wow, Okay, this is really gone somewhere.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I have some other memories, but they're not going to
be appropriate. So let's get into the podcast. We talk
about what are you Kakaing? Until twenty twenty five, You're
chucking it in the I'll deal with it next year.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Ben plus group therapy was all about secret center participation

We talked about the ads that you remembered by heart,
and our people's pole tackled a very important love question,
when is the right time to say I love you?
Speaker 3 (05:06):
All of that are more coming up in the podcast.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Joy Bye, Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Hey, good afternoon, Welcome to your Tuesday. It's literally the
third day of summer, and the complaints that I have
heard coming through over the last two hours about the heat.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And how someone can't deal. We're going up for a
little walk.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Here's what happens to me. As soon as there's any movement.
If I'm sitting still, I'm okay. But as soon as
I put one foot in front of the other, my
body just goes, oh, here we go. It's time for
you to sweat. And then next thing I know, I've
literally rounded a corner and I'm drenched. I'm drenched. I
need to take like I need to bring like three
changes of outfits to work every day.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
I've just noticed you're a bit more reddled the last.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Couple of days. I'll tell you what else. I'll tell
you what else. As soon as summer hits, it was
like all the flies in this country went oh hello,
oh yeah, staring remember remember us.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Do you have a technique because some people say, either
shut or the windows, or you open it all up
so it is out, or you do vinegar final I've
got no clue before any tricks of the trade.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Let me know four four eighth seven. I would love
to know what is the trick to get rid of flies?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
I would love to see you flustered, hot, sweet sweet try.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
I literally need to be a fly on the wall
so I can witness that.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Podcast few tigues coming through about sure far ways to
get rid of those pisky flies that are populating our
houses at the moment.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
A good trick is even with a small fan.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
If you have a bowl of ice, di wret the
fan over the bowl of ice and you get a
nice chili breath.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I don't think it's for the flies. I think they
were talking about.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
That classic maybe all of the text to read. What
about this one Rosemary in the oven?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Is that an a heap of Rosemary in our driveway,
So I'm going to give that a won over the
next few days.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Thank you, yeah, thank you for your texts.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Look, we I feel like the end of year rush.
There's really kicking in. There's a lot of Edmund to
be done, Christmas shopping all of a sudden's on the radar,
and between our meetings and the show kicking off, you
and I are trying to fit in a lot. I
personally ran off to the shop to try and get
some crocs for us son, Charlie, because I realized his
(07:51):
feet are too hot in this weather and his little boots.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Will not suffice.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
So I went to try to get the right size
and the right color, and they didn't have the right color.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
And I was kind of looking around and I was
being a bit fussy.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I really wanted like this khaki little colors and it
looked quite cute, or like a little beigey one, not
like a bright blow. I've had the bright blow. I
wanted to go a little more neutral for summer. And
the woman was having it, and then the other shopkeeper overheard.
Now there was a bit of a time limit, but
like we were getting close to the showkicking off, and
(08:22):
then he was really helpful, and he sort of interjected
and he said, you want me to check with some
other stores and just see if they've got stock nearby?
And I feared, oh, sure, okay, think thank you so much,
thinking it would be like a one and done like
pretty quick, like I can just get an answer.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
He gets on my computer and then and.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Then the computer's like loading and then he's sort of
asking more questions about this precise.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Size and the color and bless them, trying to be helpful,
but sometimes you just so money times money, and.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Then it's sort of like five minutes has passed. Do
I just to him thank you so much?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
What I've actually got to go?
Speaker 6 (09:03):
I know?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
But then you have to flight him more because he's
done on this hard work.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
And then we don't get the payoff, and you've now
invested five minutes of your time with no payoff either.
So it's like it's one of those things. Do you
do you keep risking it hoping that you're going to
get an outcome or do you just call it.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'm here like tapping my foot right, I'm just like okay,
we'll go, And then finally he's like nope, they don't have.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That, and I sprinted out.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
That door and listening it was being helpful. But sometimes
you just I think I should have just said, look,
I've actually gonna go in like a ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
But you just feel too rude, don't you.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It's like that scene, you know, the scene from Love
actually with Rock my favorite, and the guy's like, hurry up,
hurry up, would you.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Like that gift?
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Right?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
And then he guys puts like leavender on the top.
That's one of my favorites. It was a little bit
like that.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Ah the Christmas.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Season emptyj Many and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I was coming into work today and as I walk,
because we park our car across in a different building,
so there's a little walk in between the car park
and the building. So I was walking to work and
I ran into a guy that I used to work
with for a number of years, so I haven't seen
him ages. It was so nice to see him, and
(10:25):
we were catching up on the street and then he
said to me, what are you doing over the next
wee while? And I said, oh, you know, just finishing
off work and then going away for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
He said, let's try and squeeze in a time for
a catch up for a drink. And I thought about it,
and I thought to myself, there is no way I
am getting a drink and between now and Christmas, it's
just like I'm calling I'm calling it. It's not happening.
So let's not pretend like it's going to Yeah, and
(10:54):
I said, let's kick that to twenty twenty five. That
is a next year problem, not problem, but next year.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Shout out to Ham a piece of listening and next.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Year event the admin of the organizing the catch up
as the next year problem, Madye.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Knowing you, you're going to have to put that as
a reminder in your camera so you don't forget to
actually do that.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Absolutely will. But I just thought there are certain things
that you know at this time of year, they ain't happening.
They ain't patten them before the end of the year.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I've got two examples. First of all, our winning clan
actually reached out last night. She just wants to go
for lunch as well and just catch up, you know,
nearly a year on, and she was like, should we
just rescheduled to.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
The new year, And I was like, yes, please, you.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Are speaking my language. Also, we've been on the hunt
for a new car, oh.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
God right, for as long, for as long as we've
been doing this radio show for.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
And my husband and I had the executive decision to just.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Chuck it into twenty twenty five. Deal with that next year.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
We'll get the car ready and then we can slid
in January or February, will deal with then.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
So, look, maybe other people out there are doing similar things,
you know, maybe it's just some stuff you're like, actually,
don't have the brain capacity for this for the next
twenty eight or so days.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And the beauty is we're in that absolute zone where
you can do that guilt free. There's no judgment. If
you say let's kick that to twenty twenty five, everyone goes, yep,
totally on board with that, absolutely understand, let's do it.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
So the question is, now, oh, eight hundred, the Hats,
what are you kackaying to twenty twenty five?
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Give us a call. You can take you through four
for eighty seven.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Butt on the back burner, checking it on delay till
twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Give us a call. Oh wait, hundred the hat.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Maddy and PJ Mady and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
The Heads, we're asking the question what are you kicking
until twenty twenty five? We're officially in the zone where
you can get away guilt free with postponing things you
don't want to do right now, because it's nearly the
end of the year. There's so much going on, there's
a frenzy. Let's just do it in the new year.
We'll just deal with it next year. I reckon, You
want to know what are you putting off?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I reckon, there will be so many people with their
outlook calendar, just go and shove that into twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Have you ever been bold enough to just delete all
of your emails?
Speaker 5 (13:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I deleted a whole lot the other day. I'm kind
of feeling I'm kind of feeling crazy. I can't because
I don't fit on my first one. I don't fit
my clothes at the moment, pregnant, I feel like throwing
all my clothes away, like deleting all my emails and
starting for shitting.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
She's sitting people getting guys.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Catherine's joining us. What are you kicking until twenty twenty five?
Speaker 7 (13:50):
So I keep a list of like walks and hips,
but I want to do each year, and they're not
necessarily always these massive one or two day ones, but
I'm kicking at least two. So I want to get
done this year that that's just going to have to
wait till next year.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, that's a twenty twenty five. That's a twenty twenty
five problem, Catherine.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
Yeah, I mean I've done.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Enough walks to though I feel too bad about it.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
That's very good of you to be planning more. I
need to be. I need to be more like you.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
I have I have a toddler, so I find it
slightly easier to kind of look at what I want
to get done in a year and then try and
plan it out on what months is going to work
and all that. So yeah, I'm very big on the
spreadsheets and pleasing list.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
But yeah, but there's definitely things that could be chatted
to twenty twenty five. What to the dairy instead walk
to the.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Exactly, she'll be right, and none's joining us. What are
you coocking till twenty twenty five?
Speaker 4 (14:46):
I'm I'm putting on well till twenty twenty five. Lodging
divorce papers. Oh sorn up, it's taken five years to
get to an agreement had them all born up, and
I just don't have time.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
To know at the courts. Yeah, and honestly, what's an
extra few weeks?
Speaker 3 (15:02):
You know, I know, I know.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That'll be so ignorant growing up.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Just how long the process can take for a divorce
like it does it?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
It's a long time, doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Definitely coming to an agreement on stuff?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Oh well, we're thinking of you in twenty twenty five.
That'll be a weight off the shoulders and shit done
and not.

Give a party to celebrate.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Brilliant, brilliant.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Okay, what's this cool?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Well, you see that you wanted to put off buying
a new car until twenty twenty five, but actually someone's
called art and suggested that maybe you don't need to
put it off until twenty twenty five. Peach Jacob, Hello Jacob.

Speaker 10 (16:15):
The podcast that the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody
comes together.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
It's the people.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Today's question is taking us down memory lane because something
happened to one of your friends.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Mady.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
My friend is freshly in a relationship, not even two
months yet, and she told me over the weekend that
she's told her new partner that she loves them.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
How long?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Not quite two months? And I look, when you know,
you know.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Oh, you absolutely do.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I would say, usually it's fromably between three.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
To six months.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, I was four. I was four months with Ryan.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
I've been going through my messenger archive because I did
a long distance with Bja. I think it was around
so we met New Year's Eve twenty seventeen. I think
it was around the last weekend of March. So yeah,
it was probably about three months months beginning of April year.
But oh my god, it's hilarious. How cute we used
(17:24):
to be looking at.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
The hosted it first? It first.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
So look, there are differing opinions on the issue. I
think what happened is we may have had a couple
of drinkies and I thought he said it, and so
I set it back.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
But then I actually don't think he said it. I
actually said it first.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Then he was totally going to say it like it
was the vine and there was the weekend and.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
He met my family.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
It was all you know, So yeah, he will tell
you that I said it first.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
But I thought.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
That Ryan still gives me a hard time about the
first time because I said it first. Surprised. Yeah, I
had his best friend to got married over on way
Hiki and we'd only been together for a few months,
so you know, I wasn't actually a guest at the
wedding because we hadn't known each other for that long.
But she had a bit of a hiccup with her
(18:21):
the driver of the courtesy van for the wedding. So
I said, oh, come and drive people from the venue
back to their accommodation. And at about two am, after
I had furied the last group home. Why did I
agree to do that? And then I thought, I don't
know why, because I love this man. So I told
Ryan that night, I said I did what I did
(18:42):
tonight because I love you. And Ryan still gives me
a hard tough about that. He says it was the
cheesiest way to ever tell someone you loved.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Were you stone colds ober?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
And he was not absolutely absolutely Yeah, did you get
the response you wanted?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I did get and I love you back, but it
was with like gin breath.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Okay, So let's throw it out there.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
When do you think is the right time to say
I love you on a relationship.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Let's just get a gauge. Let's get an average.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
When was the time maybe you said it in your
current relationship?
Speaker 5 (19:16):
Text through many INPJ to the podcast.
Speaker 10 (19:21):
That the People's Poll, the People's Poll. Everybody comes together,
it's the.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
People's Poll today asking other people's pole. How long did
it take for you to say I Love you.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
To your partner?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
You can text through four four eight seven or waiting
on our Instagram page the head stripe.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah. My friend over the weekend was telling me she's
just said I love you to her new partner and
they've been together not quite two months, And I thought,
is that earlier or is that normal?
Speaker 5 (19:47):
Like?
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Was that the more common amount of time? I was
just curious to know where people stood, and it's honestly
a real range. Someone said me and my husban and
said it a month in and now we're married and
expecting our first baby together.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
What about this one? After seven years?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
We've been together for over seven years now and a
couple of nights after my daughter's seventh birthday, we had
a barbecue and there's been a few drinks and my
partner told me that he loved me. And the next
day I made sure he was sober, and when he
was he remembered it was like, yep, I love you too,
and do you go after seven years?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
Listen to this one?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Though? My partner have been together three years with a
two year old and we still haven't said it. We
often ask each other, but it never really gets there.
I don't doubt that we do have just never said
it verbally to each other.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I mean, everyone's different and everyone has different needs.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
But I can imagine you and I being like, do
you really do you wop this?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
I over say it, I say it too much. Yes,
I know.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I know someone near has said I told my husband
I loved him after five days.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
You know they do say when you.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Know, you know, you just have to be.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Capitable and you just got to do it and make
sure that you say it, well you hear it correctly.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So we put it up on our Instagram page and
you can go and vote every day on our People's poll.
And we gave a bunch of different time frames. The
most common at forty six percent, was three months to
six months, so between their time frame but I was thinking.
Thirty four percent said either straight up between straight away,
(21:27):
like immediately to three months, seventeen percent said six months
to a year, and two percent said one year plus.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Okay. Interesting.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
I was devoted because I had a high school boyfriend
and I think I said it to him, but he
only wanted to say it to one person in his life,
which actually, in hindsight, it's a really Betif I was
stutted at the time, it wasn't you Why don't you lie?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Many INPJ the podcast that's many INPJS Group There.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Group Therapy is a safe space that we enter every
week on the show. And if there's anything going on
in your life where you're like, oh, I just need
a little bit of help, MACU, you don't know what
to do in this.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Situation, reach out.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
You can either text through four four eighty seven or
hit us up at the hits dot co dot NZ's.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
I had to sneak out before work today to go
and get myself a present for my secret center. We're
doing a Hits team Secret Center this week.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yes classic you and I left it till the last minute.
I'm hoping mine arrives in time to the desired destination.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Well, as I was walking up the road and I
told you earlier in the show, when it's hot like
this and Muggie and I'm wearing pants, I get very sweety.
As I was trudging up the road to go and
get myself the secret center prison, I thought to myself,
is it worth it? Is it worth it? And I thought, no,
don't be a Grench, don't be a grinch. Joining on
the festive fun, Matty. But then I bent to work
(23:00):
and realized that this is the submission that we got
in for this week group therapy, and all of a sudden,
I was really relating to this person that is emailed
in him Addie and PJ. I work in an office
where every year we do a big secret Center. It's
a whole production names and a hat strict twenty dollars
budget and a group unwrapping session during our Christmas party.
(23:21):
This is sounding very familiar.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Haha.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Here's the thing. I hate it. Every year I either
get something completely useless or end up buying a present
for someone I barely know, and it feels so forced.
This year, I've been thinking about sitting it out, but
a few people have already started hyping it up, and
I know that there's an unspoken expectation to join in.
Would it be rude if I just said no thanks
(23:47):
this year? Or am I being a Christmas grinch by
not participating? Help me figure this out before I make
myself the office scrooch.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Oh, it's a really tough one because I get for
morale and you know, the end of year vibe that
it can create. But I also am like we are
in the middle of the middle of a cost of
living crisis and every dollar counts right now and people
should be able to say, actually, I don't she can't
(24:17):
do it this year?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 9 (24:18):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
And you shouldn't have to feel guilt around that that and.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Bless bless a work team. But you don't necessarily know
everyone intimately. Do you great news if you get your work,
if you get your office bestie, brilliant, But if you
get random Susan who walks works down the hallway, and
you've got no idea what Susan does for a job,
let alone what she enjoys. It's nearly near on impossible
(24:45):
to buy something for her.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Will they do now?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, what they did with our office this year is
that you can actually message them anonymously and be like, Hi,
is there anything you'd like this year?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And then they can do a little whistler.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
You utilize that, didn't you for your one?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
I did, but I couldn't find what she wants. She'm
not gonna give it away.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
What they wanted. I couldn't find it. Something to do
something totally different.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I think you should be able to opt out or
you just pull a sicky on the day.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
That would be my advice.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, but if then, but it is awkward if you
are the only person the team it's not participating.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Well, maybe you you find solidarity with other colleagues.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Her aunt isn't thoosed and you'd be like.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Hey, look, Matilda, Keith, Mary and I this year, we
just don't feel comfortable entering into the secrets. And it's
not because we hate it. We just actually it's just
one too many stresses for us right now and we
cannot participate, and I think you should be You know,
that's your what's.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
The word prerogative, like your.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Prerogative prerogative, you should be able to say that.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I think on the flip side, it is twenty bucks.
Go buy a box of favorites, wrap it up when
bampick you man, get in in a get out. That's
what I say.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
What is your advice for the secret Sanda dilemma? You
can give us a call? Oh, eight hundred hits a
text through four four eight seven.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
Mady and PJ the podcast The Heads, Many and Pj's
group Therapy.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Time for another week of group therapy. She's another Christmas
doozy medie.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yes, I work in an office where every year we
do a big secret sand to this person is written in.
It's a whole production, names and a hat strip, twenty
dollars budget. Here's the thing. I hate it. Every year
I either get something completely useless or end up buying
a present for someone I barely know, and it feels
so forced. This year, I've been thinking about setting it out,
but a few people have already started hyping it up.
(26:43):
And I know there's an unspoken expectation to join in.
Would it be rude if I just said no thanks
this year? Or am I being a Christmas crench by
not participating?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Sandra and Todunga is joining us? Sound? Do you usually
have a little solution?
Speaker 5 (26:59):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (26:59):
Yes, People who want to join in they put their
name themselves on a in the hat, but also under
their names they write down what they want and what
their favorite color or favorite flower or favorite things.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Smart.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
That's good.
Speaker 11 (27:17):
If you're names not in the hat, you just don't
tune up on the day and nobody knows until the day.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Really, well, that's what we've got in our office. There's
an op and opt out like and you should be
able to do that. It shouldn't It shouldn't be like mandatory.
Should you should have the toy?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
But do you think there is this potentially a little
bit of judgment from people if you don't join in,
Like if I'd sat out, if I'd said this year,
bugger that I'm not doing it?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Do you think that is such a sad sat many
fun andreas joining us? What are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (27:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:51):
I just think do I be a grunch?
Speaker 7 (27:53):
I think in the spirit of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
What's Christmas all about?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
It's about giving. And I just think, I mean, full disclosure,
I am a real Christmas fan, but I just think,
come on.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Guys, it's up to the value of twenty dollars.
Speaker 7 (28:09):
Surely you don't have to be maximum limits.
Speaker 8 (28:12):
Just buy something funny. Yes, yeah, you're in the spirit.
Have a bit of fun at the end of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, I get it, Andrea, I get ith something. Life
is very serious this year. Life is travy for a
lot of people. So a little bit of fun and
festive Joey goes a long way and.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You just get a photo of yourself and frame at
is that what you would do?
Speaker 5 (28:36):
Is bad idea.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
On an Alkland's got a solution. What are your thoughts on?
Speaker 12 (28:43):
Yeah, so I was saying, look, if you've got to
do it, spice it up. So what we do is, however,
many people are joining and honor. There's a number. So
so there's twenty people. So there's twenty numbers, and everyone
draws a number. All the presents are in the middle.
Person number one has to take a present and they
got to keep it. They got to deal with that
whatever it is. And in person number two can steal
(29:06):
person number one, or they can take their own and
each present can only be stolen three times.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
And then it's so then you're not trying to come
up with something for a specific person. You can just
keepet fun and interesting and it keeps it entertaining. I
like that idea.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
I like that.
Speaker 8 (29:24):
That's random.
Speaker 12 (29:25):
Yeah, and I suppose you know, hey, steal a few
gifts at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
That's okay. Excuse me, hey, look.
Speaker 12 (29:33):
Christmases from your mates.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
And the Christmas verruh, we've got a kids can Christmas cracker?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Give that coming away on?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (29:43):
Stop it?
Speaker 12 (29:43):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
Speaker 3 (29:47):

Maddy and PJ.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
Marry and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
The Heads of a random topic. But I want to
ask the question, and you can text through four four
eight seven.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Is the worst smell that you could spell, the worst
thing that you could spell that stinks the most?
Speaker 2 (30:13):
You You are unbelievable, what I have You've done that?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
So we were in Hawksbay over the weekend and we
stayed with our friends who very kindly took us under
their wing.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
They're literally.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
There's a few weeks out from having their second child,
so you know, wanting to get into the nesting phase.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
I know that, I know that feeling.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
You know, there's there's quite like a stress before the
baby comes, and you want to make everything perfect. So
when we left that home, I wanted to try and
make sure that we hadn't left a mess and made
their life more difficult. But no, no, So we took
the so we took the sheets off and you know,
just made sure that the room was you know, spick
(30:59):
and span. And it wasn't until we were walking out
the door. I had had one of my little canvas
bags just sitting on their couch and then I realized
something had leaked in the bag and I was like, oh,
it must have been my water bottle. No, it wasn't
my water bottle. It was a rogue jar of gurk
(31:23):
that I got in the bag because I'd got I
decided to make like this potato salad the.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Night before, and I was like, no, I'm going to
take those gurkins with me.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I had the jar of gurkins medi in the bag
and the leaked and You could smell it like it's
dunk is so bad, and I was like, oh am
I going to get this out stressful, And then I
felt really bad because our friend Shark comes over and
she's wiping it up.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
I'm like, no, no, no, no, I'll do it. I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
And then I did the sniff test and you could
still smell like the vinegary saline or whatever it is
that it sits in.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
You know how I hate like peckles and ghurkin? Have
I told you? This came from my friend when I
was at early days of high school. Came back from
an overseas trip with this like slime gurkin flavored slime,
and then I forgot about it and left it in
(32:16):
the back of my cupboard. And then when we moved
four years later, I pulled it out and I opened
the lid disgusting.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
So I'd love to know do you think because that smell?
I was like, is I love a pickle but the
smell of furniture stinks?
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Can you beat it? What do you reckon? What smell
is the worst? To spell? Text through four four eight
seven Maddy J.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Maddy and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
The Ebag and Welcome to your Tuesday Night, Maddy MPJ.
Earlier in the show, I was talking about the unfortunate
liquid that I built on a friend's couch when we
stayed there over the weekend. It was a jar of pickles,
and I didn't realize I hadn't quite fastened the lid properly,
(33:11):
and so it had dribbled through.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
My bag onto the couch.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I wanted to know, do you reckon there's a worse
item that you could spill that would stake one more?
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Oh my god, we have got so many things.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
So many, someone said, A toddler's milk bottle that was
left under a cop for who knows how long baby
found out and had a sip. The most rotten milk.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Is a picture of this frozen check and left in
the car in the middle of summer in Australia.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
Blue.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
You almost did that earlier this year. I think it
was winter.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Yeah, yeah, I'm a nurse.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
There are many bad things to spill that will ruin
your day, But the antibiotic amoxist sillen smells like catpee
if you crack it open.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
It's the worst to get on your hands.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Broken eggs with a mummified rat We've got this one.
My mate once left a pot of potato and gravy
and his car for about a year. We started smelling
something gross and searched around, found it and stupidly opened it.
Speaker 3 (34:08):
Me and his girlfriend spewed everywhere.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
It was the worst thing I've smelt in my whole life.
But cool think potato and gravy would stink too bad? Uh?
Speaker 2 (34:19):
You know neither potatoes is fine?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Right after a year?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
After a year though, yeah, after a year maybe the podcast.
And only a few days ago, we were in Hawk's
Bay with some lovely winners. Terresa and her mates came
out for a lovely meal with us.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
It was it was nailed, nailed it.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
But No and her lovely friends from Topoor and Aucland came.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Out for dinner with us and we were chatting away.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
It was like we've been mates for years, wasn't that?
Speaker 9 (34:57):
I know?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
They were so great and we had so much fun.
First of all, great meal, great meal, great meal. We
got the old potato grat in no, the fond of potato.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
The potato Okay, we we really over hyped the phone potatoes.
We looked at these pictures online and we're like, this
is going to be the best thing.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
I mean, they were fine, There was nothing wrong with them,
they just weren't quite We'd overhyped it. Sitting at work
on a Friday night looking at the menu, we were hungry,
and we over hyped what these were going to be.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Some would say they could have been mistaken just for
a roast.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Potato that just roast potatoes.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
One of the conversations that came up, and I did
not know how this was initiated, but somehow we started
reciting old school ads from TV. I think it's because
there was the music tally on in the background. And
then we started talking about how like when you get
home from school and you'd watch like C four TV
or like Sunday morning, you chuck it on. And then
(36:00):
we talked about how like when you'd watch TV, it
was such an event and and you know, the ads
would really be watched, you know, like it was because
you'd only see the show once, so you didn't want
to miss when it came back on. So you'd either
got the toilet, you make a cup of tea, or
you'd sit there eleimantly watching each advertisement thoroughly.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Oh yeah, and they were they were a real production
back then, and there were storylines and lots of them
went on for years and years. We started reminiscing about
the Anchor family those ads.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Right, you kind of missed on some of them.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
A few.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Spot the dogs though, with the telecomm ads, those were infamous.
And then we started reciting the ads that we still
remember to this day.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
What's your one? Do you reckon?
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I've got I've got a couple. There's the first one
that I remember is actually a horrible ad. It was
a drink driving ad, and I still remember this line
specifically from the air.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
It's the same day, I'm sorry.
Speaker 13 (37:13):
Sorry to me, say kids, Okay, those those drinks there
was a drink they were they really.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
They were horrific. Maybe they did the job, tell me
about it. But also the phrase don't say sorry to me,
say sorry to his kids kind of entered the lexicon
of society for a while. We're all saying that.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
For a lighter one, the lighter one would have to
be McDonald to make it, Clark.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
You must remember it every time you're in the car
and going near on good message and stuck in my
hair still sing or is the absolute classic di Wired
(38:03):
to now dna ed.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Good I want to have a day years frown Hi Jose.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
Saturday nie ya jaymn.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Nose twice to hear amazing.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Okay, Okay, what we should do is why don't people
call us on one hundred the hats. You recite the
line from the air, and we've got to work out
what the ad was. How good memorys.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
With nostalgic ads?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
If there are some lines that you can remember from
some iconic ads that used to play in the eighties
or nineties or early two many in the podcast, we're
taking a walk down memory lane. We want to see
how well you can remember old school ads word for word,
and then we're going to guess what the ad was
(38:55):
actually promoting a lot of people saying that utter peanut butter,
nutter yes from Sanitarium, And you just said in the
news literally broke like within the last twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
So I'd seen these teats come in and then we
started singing the song from Sanitarium and then literally it
was like it was like fate. I got a push
notification from the Herald saying Sanitarium ceases production of its
peanut butter range. What not making peanut butter anymore?
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Okay, let's have some fun with us and go to
the finds. Melanie is joining us first time. Melanie, Hello,
how are you good?
Speaker 3 (39:35):

of the ad.

Speaker 3 (40:15):
Don't be jack.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
No, No, I'm just saying I don't think we were.
I don't think it was on TV when we were.
It was beyond our times, beyond our time slide.
Speaker 7 (40:23):
It was really funny. It was a family and it
was you know, two kids that are born, and a
girl said in the back, and there was something about
we wanted some dinner, and then it was here you go,
see you go, and I said.
