Speaker 8 (14:24):
I'm not.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
I don't want to.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
I'm not here to attack you, fletch. But you did
when I got a new iPhone. Yes, sell me on
these sexy leather cases junk.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
And this case was not cheap.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
This case came from America and took a long time
to get here, and I would say within a month
it was broken beyond repair. Like I, it is just bad,
the plastics exposed. It ain't doing shit on all but Fauner.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
That's like mine's the same, but without the scratches and there.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
As hard as I live, you drop your phone too.
I drop my phone so much.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
But you have a case to do this, well, you
need one of those builders. You know builders. You see
builders and they've got a case and it's like an
inch with like ridged edges and stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
So I was like, I need to get a new case.
But you know, for me, life is fashion, and so
I was like, I want to get a nice lither.
I do like the leather look. I looked at a
few brands. I was looking at nice stuff and it's
a little out of my budget at the moment because
it's no I'm trying to renovate.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
It's my passion. So much fun.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
And so I found this company that did a lovely
leather case. This is the Adepto Leather iPhone case. And
it was like a Crocodile leather.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Vibe official Croc No.

Speaker 4 (15:54):
No, no no.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
It's embossed like beef leather. It's faux Croc, faux Croc
genuine leather as sol to may as genuine leather. And
I paid fifty four dollars. That's expensive to May for
a case.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
That's not cheap. Dude.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
This case arrives and it okay, I know one I
noticed and that I've actually ordered the wrong science. It's
half the size of my phone. I was like, who
even has a phone?

Speaker 1 (16:28):
This morning?

Speaker 3 (16:29):
It was like an see you know those little mini ware,
So that's on me, that's on you, it's on May's.
And then I'm like flipping in my hand and I'm like,
there is feather light that won't protect a bloody brick, right,
And I feel this thing and I was like, it's
so light. And then I turn it over and that's

(16:50):
where the sticker that is quote unquote leather that has
already started peeling off. And I've never seen a cow
so sort of plasticy thin.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
It's leather.

Speaker 3 (17:01):
And I just thought, you know what, I've ordered the
wrong size and thank god, it's such a bad product.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
It's faulty.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
So emailed them and I said, excuse.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Me, excuse excuse. Did you start with saying I'm an idiot?

Speaker 3 (17:18):
No, I did not admit to the wrong size, because
when they offered to replace it with the exact same
one at no cost, I was like, don't do it.
It's not my right size. Hi, you know, like a
refund for this product. It was sold to me as
genuine leather and there's nothing genuine about this leather. And
I send them a photo of the sticker peeling off,
and now Emil me back saying like, thank you so

(17:39):
much for it, and I'm really glad you brought this
to our attention, you know, sorry to hear that it
was defective and we're going to send you on a
new one. Can you share a video? And I share
the most aggressive like, oh look at this, you know
this is just absolutely bullshit. And then he sends another
thing and he says, were able to catch my last email,
blah blah.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
I send the video like this was no comment. He said,
thank you.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
To make sure we're figuring in this well, I've looped
in the product specialist and he said, hi, Haley, Ronnie
here making a follow up. I just got feedback from
the team with the photo you provided, But do a
free replacement. And I just see my back and saying no,
I would like a refund. I have no faith in
the quality of your products. I was like, oh my god,
I'm hearing it.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
I'm hearing it.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
By the way, no faith in the quality of your products.
And it was a cheap, cheap phone case, not money wise.
I said, this is pricey with the quality even the
damage not worth it, flimsy, genuinely doubt the genuine leather
is genuine.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
I reckon by the end of the year we'll be
able to put together quite a montage of make me no, no,
don't do me dirty like that.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
And they said, I totally understand. And then I keep
and I emailed back and he said, you know when
a senior replacement. And I said, no, I want this refund.
And I said, thank you, We'll see you the refund.
And you just seen my back and I said, just
admit to me that it's not leather.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Haley what I want to hear.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
And you're going to get me the refund. You're going
to get me the refund.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
That's fine.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yeah, I don't have to send back the faulty, can't.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
You've ever seen when someone gets what they want and
then they're like, I want more and they go back
principal and.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
They see for them that's in the case, there's no
need to return it. Please feel free to keep it
donated or even get creative with it. And I email
back and I said, no, I just admitted to me
that the genuine Living always advertised no as not genuine
take the one, take the money, two emails saying admit it.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Just tell me to my face. I don't care. I'm
gonna get my money back.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
I've got no skin in the game anymore. You just
tell me that you sold me a leather product.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Let it go. I won't. I will not rest until
they say no, you're you know what it's not. They
are fine goods and authentic you know, antiqupies. You thought
you were getting actual leather for fifty dollars. Correct on you.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, a couple at the back. If I see a
hot person.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
I'm going to take a photo of them.

Speaker 5 (24:49):
That.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Don't think you can do that? Excuse me? That are
you going to them to get them to lock? You
were going to see the face? You should hold a
tennis ball above the phone like.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
You do for it over here. They so the one app, well,
one of the apps I never got on was Hinge
because hinds very was very like, I'm looking for love.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
I'm looking for someone. Yeah I was not.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
That's not let it be known. That's not why I
was there. So they have a new feature. They was
releasing new features. Hinda's new feature is called Signals it's
a badge that will be on your profile. It's a
purple beating heart icon which is next to the name
that you'll see when you're on the app, and it
rewards little actions that tend to lead to real dates.

(25:35):
Basically means they're being active, they're being engaged, they're actually
looking at you, they're taking time to look at your
profile before like it.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Yeah, that's one of the big problems people have with
dating apps is people match you and then there's no
conversation anything, or people are too busy to reply and
it goes anywhere, and so you just end up like,
what was the point of.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
The Well, they're just sitting there and not even being
conscious of what they're looking for.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Hot hot hot, hot hot hot, not hot.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
Whereas this reward's actions like actually going and reading the
profile before liking, writing a personalized comment, responding to incoming likes,
and following through on conversations. So if you were seeing
someone you're like, oh, he's hot, but he doesn't have
this signal, this purple heart, you'll be like, he's just
he's not being engaging and so why would and he's
getting swiped. Yes, but this is for your middle middle

(26:26):
of the pack, middle of the pack, looking for love,
looking for a husband, looking to start a family. You
wouldn't be engaging with that, And it reflects activity over
thirty days and then it will refreshed in a month
to be like, right, I'm going to get in there
and get.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
In because that monitude for that entire month, and then
it lets you know, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Whether you got the I'm being active badge or not,
you can't buy it right, So you've got to be
to be in there engaged.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
I should we tell you what hours they are engaging
as well, because if it's like one am to three
am they're looking for someone, yeah, yeah, they might engage.
Smart from them because it's going to get people using
the app longer and more more often. Do you think
they're here to make make matches to make money. They
here to make money.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
But it's just good if you they're looking for someone
who's actually not going to waste your time.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Perfect play z ends flesh Worn and Haley.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Let's talk about Rachel.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
Rachel is an American teacher in New Zealand living in
New Zealand, and she's having some issues with the way
that we talk and how she wants to learn how
to do it herself.

Speaker 8 (27:27):
Number one is but when Kiwi said, it's a whole word,
but when I say it, it sounds like I'm not
saying the whole word of beautiful.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Number two is She'll be right Q.

Speaker 8 (27:36):
We said it as one word, and mine when I
say it too many syllables. Number three is yeah, and
I'm getting there with this one, but it just sounds
like it's made for the Kiwi accent.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
And Rachel actually joins us on the phone because she's
asked for help and we shall provide. Good morning, Rachel,
good morning, and everyone good things.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Now, how long have you been in New Zealand for? So?
I moved here in June eighteen, So you got at
it a good time. I did.

Speaker 9 (28:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
People were like, oh did when did you leave? But
I was like, oh, well before, like it was cool
to It's like I was already doing it. And so
you're still struggling with how we speak in some of
our sayings and accent, Yeah, I just I can't get
the vowels down. I think it's the issue. I was
going to say, you're trying, You're trying to match. You're
moving your mouth, you're moving your mouth. You're you're shaping

(28:40):
your mouth and lips and tongue around vowels, and we
just don't do it. We just speak straight through them.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
You need to, like if you close your mouth, Rachel,
and then just slightly open it, and that's like kind
of where it just stays. We're almost the worst because
we broadcast. We talked like slightly clearer, but like you
are moving your mouth. Well, do you know when I
was sorry to just connect with on the level that
these guys won't understand. But when I was at drama school, Rachel,
learning the American accent was so hard because you move

(29:07):
your mouth so much that.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Our trip to do it was get three fingers in
a line.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Like that mouth and then you try to say what
you're saying because we don't open our mouths when we talk.
So when you say when you were saying in that
in your clip that you shooed on your TikTok yeah,
or even just say yeah, you just don't do much
yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
Oh gosh, okay, so working like not working as hard
as what.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
I'm hearing, Like someone sedated you with a like a
bullet in the bum a horse train. Yeah I mean this, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
of course, right.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Whereabouts in America? Did you live? So? I grew up
in a state called Wisconsin, which is one of the middle.

Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
Well, actually a lot of like a lot of my
students are like, do you have brutal Wisconsin there? I
was like, no, we are, but it is a great,
a great connection point, even though nobody knows where Wisconsin is.
But that's okay, it's it's near Canada.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
Have you now, because you know you're struggling with yeah,
but have you no?

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Yea, yea. It was good, thank you.

Speaker 5 (30:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
If I think about it too much, I think is
where I start to fall apart. But I can sometimes
catch myself being like, oh did I just did I
just say? I know? Like, yeah, what about like the
famous ones like the number six?

Speaker 3 (30:32):
Oh no, I say six?

Speaker 1 (30:35):
But I do I do like making fun of any well,
like eggs.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
It's gone until someone like yourself comes along and points
out the ridiculousness so that you can't Yeah, can I
ask what you come to New Zealand other than it's
super cool?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Well, it's it's a pretty long and complicated story.

Speaker 8 (30:57):
But I have been teaching abroad for a number of
yours and met my now wife living overseas.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
And we definitely didn't think it was going to like
be a long term thing.

Speaker 8 (31:10):
So we like had a nice time and then we
were like, we'll see you later, and then we kept
in contact and now here I am ten years later.

Speaker 5 (31:18):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (31:19):
Yeah, So it was me moving here was like the
agreement because I had like another job lined.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
Up before I had met Amalia, and my wife she
so yeah she is, And.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
So I was like, look, I don't want to move
back to the States. How about we moved to New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (31:35):
It must be so hard to understand each other if
she's soon like you were sweet and you've picked up
if you've been here for what is that six years?
Have you picked up sweet airs?

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah? Oh yeah, sweet as everything is easy easy. Somebody
takes them saying, explain hard case. Do you know hard case?
That's hard case. I don't know that one. I don't
want What do you think it means if I said
all you that he's a hard case. Oh, I think
he would be real difficult to deal with. No, No,

(32:07):
it's funny. Yeah, that guys are case. It's origins are
just because I the origins of hard case a quickly.
I've never heard about it, thought about it really because
my uncle says it all the time. Yeah, case like,
I've never heard it. It comes from a tough exterio.
Originally it was like harder people they were, they were hardened,

(32:29):
but those are the people that told the best stories.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah right, well, okay, honestly, Rachel, I love following you
on TikTok.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
I just we've just lost you hang on, where are you?
Oh no, not actually assage and totally relates to you.
I'm from the Southern States of America and if it
almost thirty years in the accident, even after thirty years
can be hard to understand. Really in New Zealanders, do
we say there are at the end of words? No, no,
we don't do it no words. I can't stop after

(33:02):
after after after another, later, later, later, later.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
I think the general thing is just like just like
sedate yourself. Yeah, like the Georgie's Light hang and the.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
Like after you've been to the dentist.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
You well, absolutely, I love you your ship. I can
see on your tik talk, which has unqualified reviews, you
have like you're trying marmite, which is a taste. If
you didn't go up with that? Are you trying to
at the Kiwi things? So we just love to see
people adapting to the Kiwi life.

Speaker 8 (33:41):
Yeah, yeah, Well I've actually really enjoyed it, and I
think one of the reasons is because kiwis so the
statum was trying to make grow up in is in
the covered midwest of the US, and I feel like
the New Zealanders and the Midwest.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Culture have a lot of overlaps. Really really yeah, really comfortable.

Speaker 7 (33:59):
Like we call it like the Minnesota nice or like
the hospitality.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
We're like, we're nice, yeah, extra, we're really nice. We
just don't we're making a lot of effort when we
talk Rachel and my wife, my poor parents are just like,
what does she saying? Like, oh she said this, Well,
good luck on.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
Your journey to trying to understand what the hell we're saying.
At any point, thank you, and Rachel will follow along
your journey.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Good luck.

Speaker 6 (34:30):
Then podcast Network play that ins flesh one and Haley.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Now seeing people vomit's going to have one of two
reactions for me. One, I'm going to immediately feel like
I need a vomit, or what you just heard, I
will laugh uncontrollably at somebody vomiting. There's something so you're
just so vulnerable and you're on your side. You want
to grow up and baby.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
Doing it.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Just go right to the end the video. I was
a bride walking down the aisle, emotional. She's balling, she's
howling when she's walking out. She's not just having a
nice like I didn't want to say sexy crow, but
you know, just like a single class a classy weep
is what I'm after here watching and she's howling, and
she was her dad's walking down the aisle. The groom's
waiting for her. He's also quite emotionally, but he's having

(35:21):
like a sort of a low scale cry. She's howling.
She gets to the front and you see her go
like a cat, you know, when you're watching a cat
and you're like, oh, and the cat goes, oh, you're god,
get out, you're scared outside, not on the carpet. The
straight goes up the aisle, The celebrant steps aside, she

(35:44):
goes through chuns.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
I'm here, Oh, he's having a cute weeps.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
It's a long video. I would have preferred just equipment
of her crime. And she comes.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
You know, we're talking a princess gown. It's in the
ways you see, she's really nervous past here, she is, here,
she is, She's at the groom. Dad's there.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Passover, chum, oh, darling nerves, she said, it was absolutely
her nerves just got the better. And that's what I
want to know this morning. When the nerves got the
best of you, maybe you just check it out, or
just when you see someone in there just not I mean,
I hate public speaking, despite doing this for a job,
but it's never fun. And you see some people and

(36:27):
they are really struggling, and you're just like, oh no,
and I can't get it together, and they're just like
skipped stumbling over and you're just like.

Speaker 8 (36:33):
Oh no.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
When I was the maid of honor at my bestie's wedding,
RP that wedding.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
By the way, I repay that marriage. Who I need
to do a refresh of how many weddings I venture
that are still going. I think I'm heading.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
I tell you about fifty.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
The gays are actually doing the agreements agreements yeah no
an agreements yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
No kids an agreement to and kids share other people
No kids, two incomes dream in Europe summons.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
But I was shut up, shut up, I don't want
to sleep with you, and I'm going to see someone else.

Speaker 3 (37:18):
Go the Gays, we love you so much.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Okay, hey, the Straights do that too. When I was
they don't you talk and get permission that I have agreements.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
When I was made of honor at my best friend's wedding,
there was quite a fuss made that the maid of
honor was a comedian and like a public speaker, and
so the best man was so nervous.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
He got so drunk to try to combat it.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
Yes, and his speech was I'll say fifteen seconds and
we couldn't understand it. Oh no, So his nerves got
a bit of him, and that he just was like,
I'm just gonna wow you Alpha. I alford him, and
then I had the room in the palm of mine.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
So this is what we had to do, was speak
for longer than fifteen seconds. Yeah, okay, I'll wait one
hundred dollars at him. We want you to give us
a call. Now you can take through nine six nine six.
When did you nerves get the better of you? Tralee?
When the nerves get the better of you?

Speaker 5 (38:13):
Yeah? So I was about probably fifteen or sixteen and
I was at a horse show and I was so nervous,
and I went and did my round and finished my
round clear, and they ring about to do the second round,
and I vomited off the side of the horse.

Speaker 1 (38:30):
Horse. You know, you've done one round and just before
the start of your second.

Speaker 5 (38:37):
Yeah, so you like if you go clear, you get
into the jump off. And I think I was just
so nervous. I didn't think i'd go clear, and then.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
It's going to hit me. It's going clear when you
go over those jumpy things and down. Yeah, the poles
don't fall off. Okay, Yeah, good work, that's great. Do
you get points off the spewing off a horse? No?

Speaker 5 (38:59):
I do think I won't remember correctly.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
To wake up.

Speaker 5 (39:06):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I won.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
Have you in competing since that moment? Have you managed
to keep yourself a bit more composed?

Speaker 5 (39:14):
I haven't vomited off the side of the horse, but
I've definently been closer again.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
Oh really, okay, quite a nerve wrecking thing.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Yeah. What are you rocking for? A hairstyle type? Plant bun? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (39:30):
You can't have a pony tail hanging out the back.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
It doesn't look very tired.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
But at the back of the hunt, don't you know
here girls always matched there, here to the horse's tail,
that he has always played hard like a horse's tail.
I don't think that. Yeah, I think you've made that up. Yeah,

(39:56):
so bad. Think you have a great weekend, Stacy Win
died the nerve get the better of you.

Speaker 4 (40:01):
Hey.

Speaker 7 (40:02):
I was doing my first overseas well, pretty much trip
on my own to do my yoga kid's yoga training
in Italy.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (40:10):
And I got the I made it to Florence. I
got on the train, but I missed the stop. Oh no,
all the people so already I was breaking out.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
I didn't know what to do.

Speaker 7 (40:19):
So then I got off and all the older trainers
were saying get back, get back on, and get off.
Three stops later and then all of a sudden, I
got back on. There was this lady, she was probably
in her sixties from Australia, and I heard her on
the phone saying, I don't know how I'm going to
do the yoga training. And I literally just jumped on
her and just said, please.

Speaker 3 (40:35):
Take me with you.

Speaker 7 (40:37):
I was so terrified, like I was so nervous about
this whole training, and I just.

Speaker 3 (40:43):
On this poor stranger. Did she did she take you
under her wing?

Speaker 1 (40:47):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (40:48):
Did she take you under her wing?

Speaker 7 (40:51):
And we got to the training and she was like amazing,
And then she take to new Zeble to visit me,
and you.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
Made a friend out of us, Stacey. Fletch has very
time hamstrings like he when he sits cross legged, they
don't go down.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
I probably need to do some yoga.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
Yeah, what would you recommend to the boys for their
tight tight little legs?

Speaker 7 (41:12):
Dog windows?

Speaker 1 (41:15):
I think has been trying down with dog and it's
just not working. Is down with dog with two person activity?
Or is he doing it wrong? I get help? I
get help? Did to help the herbs? Okay, we'll have
to come in for some lessons. Stay, we will about

(41:36):
down with doggies? Dog is okay? Vorn? Thank you Stacey. Wait,
there are some messages? And when did the nerves get
the better of you? My kids brought me a bungee
for my fortieth birthday. I took three countdowns before I jumped,
and I was crying before I jumped. I hated it
so much. I didn't want to see my kids to
see me cry because I'm a tough bitch. But I
just too much. Friend was at UNI a hot new lecture.
I was asking everybody's name. This guy's hot news so flastered.

(42:00):
When she got asked her name, she muddled it. It
would be the equivalent of saying, my name is Sprayley Howe.
Oh no, and then you just have to stay as
Sprayley Howe yeah for the rest of the of the term.
I was a wedding celebrant for my boss's daughter. Couldn't
stop shaking. The groom said, you're more nervous than me.
The brides that are walking down the aisle of seconds
away from saying I need them, and it couldn't stop shaking.

(42:22):
Read vows and two seconds read it really quick. Even
heard the brides might say, look how much that woman's shaking.
That's you're the fab That's the last wedding I ever did.
Oh and you would have had to go through the
or ordeal.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
Of becoming a celebrant. It is very nerve racking. But yeah,
you it's probably not the right job for you. And
you don't want to mess up somebody's special day, do you.
You don't want to day all the paperworkers then they
are not legally married again.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
My first wrestling match. I was so nervous because I
also wanted to go in training for three months. I'm
just trying to paint a picture. And it was a woman,
then it was a man, and it was a woman,
that it was a man, and it was layering the time.
It was like seeing Yeah, yeah, I forgot my words
before the wrestling match, when I you know, of shit
talk before the rest, Oh, I forgot their words. I'm gonna.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Boy, you were gonna get slapped.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
I'm gonna hard on the nose you. My husband is
so nervous at our wedding endlested the help of the
whiskey bottle to calm the nerves as our first dance
turned into a strip of pole events. He's to say,
we call them an urba. Not long after, Oh, at
your own wedding, Oh, I got so nervous asking my
childhood sweat out when I was a teen, got a

(43:37):
single rose and everything all organized, gave it to her
and just completely froze, couldn't say damn thing, sweaty palms,
almost cried. She took the rose. Hugman just whispered yes
in my ear. Was all good. Married for almost twenty years,
two kids, blah blah blah. She still reminds me about
this moment though. That's cute. That's really cute. That's really cute.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
Oh my god, No, I begged the ultimate beardie.

Speaker 1 (43:58):
Oh did you say? No?

Speaker 3 (43:59):
I beg the ultimate bad He drove over for some
sixty times.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Had been a while.

Speaker 3 (44:03):
I was very nervous on the drive. I had taco
bell the night before and I shit my pants on
the way.

Speaker 1 (44:06):
Okay, that's not good. So when you're nervous, I look
this up. When you're nervous, your brain triggers the flight
of flight survival response, and it's a shifting of blood flow.
You get adrenaline and cortisol course through your system and
the sudden blood sudden lack of blood flow leaves your
stomach unstabilized and highly sensitive. And then there's the gut

(44:27):
brain link between the vad just nerve vegas Okay, spout like, well,
I think we'll go with and it like flows through
and it just like spasms and it and it freaks
out and it's directly related to it, and so it's
lightning the load and expelling stomach contents can make the
body lighter and faster, making it easier to run or fight.

Speaker 3 (44:47):
So like before I do stand up every time before
a show, my bowel movements are cocked because the moment
you start to feel the nerves, he's like I need
to poop.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
It's never it's never a subtle one. And so if
you've had that, and also you know a dodgy the
night before, that's why that can happen.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
Does that end podcast network?

Speaker 1 (45:08):
You gave me.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
You went to Europe recently and your suitcase, which we've discussed,
was brutally smashed and cracked twice on the journey, and
it was a surprise to you because it's hard.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
It's hard plastic, and I was like, that's why I
got it. Yeah, I'm just next suitcase. I'm just going
for a mum and dad fabric suit case. I'm going
to put straps around it. They got more given them
to squeeze some more stuff into.

Speaker 5 (45:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
I always wonder how you occasionally will see on a
buggage on a baggage carousel one of those plastic tricolor
woven bags with a week zip. Well they survived, but
I think the baggage handlers they see these things and
they're like careful, they see your expensive suitcase and they're
like boot. Well that year version, I did see them
out the window at some stage really half in them on.

Speaker 3 (46:01):
So how how hard were they hiffing these on? Because
I actually videoed the process of made demoing this. So
I've got a big skip in at the moment I'm
demoing my garage and it's it's high full.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
I was like, when you live in an apartment, it's
hard to get rid of things. And I mentioned it
happy happy to put it in my skip Yeah, because
I was just like, I guess it just lives here
until I can I don't know, leave it somewhere.

Speaker 3 (46:25):
But it's a trunk shape. And so with the real estate,
you know, the area available in my skip, you made
the suggestion of just cracking this thing apart, you know,
take a thing to it. Yeah, so yesterday I laid
out a small plinth like this.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
I think I swear in it. So I'm not audio
beautiful day, beautiful day.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
There it doesn't talk to the camera. Will upload this
to socials later and here I am.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
X. We're going to go, hey, it looks like it's
handling that quite well. I what the hell?

Speaker 3 (46:56):
You can't even patxx? I was like, okay, that's not working.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
But you're is blunt. Well, that's a wood splitter. Can
I just say it's a wood splitter. It's not supposed
to be. It's a wood splitter. Wood splitter.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
Here, I am with a Bomby Knocker sleech hair ma
not Bomby Knocker sledge hair mark. Then I go and
I changed the shape. But if you had a Bomby
Knocker shape, I was like, maybe it needs a bit more.

Speaker 6 (01:02:03):
The DNM podcast Networks its flesh one and Haley play in.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Fact of the Day day day day day. Yeah doo
doo tip tip TP do do doooo. So it's nerd
word word nerd week. At fact of the day we

(01:02:32):
were looking at like grouping words, and today we're talking
about snow clones. Snow clones. Ever heard of snow clones? No,
so it's a reasonably recent one. In October two thousand
and three, are linguist A very cunning linguist? Have a
good weekend? Jeffree put that a call for a name

(01:02:55):
of a multi use, customizable, instantly recognizable, time worn quota,
all us quoted phrasal sentence that can be used in
an entirely open array of different jokey variants by lazy
journalists or writers. For example, X is the new y oh, yep, yep, right,
you know like that, that's like you twenty It is

(01:03:15):
a new twenty Black Orange Challenge is the new black.
Like it's instantly you can kind of put anything at
the start in the end, may be starting end, meat
is the new potato like that, And they always say
move over, but then you'd have to put something at
the start and end. You know, it's just you could
you just say move over so and so, so and

(01:03:36):
so is the new so and so. Oh yeah yeah
right like that. Another one is in space. No one
can hear you scream, so people use it for all
sorts of things. Yeah, like it could be will win
Katie Perry went up in space. No one can hear
you sing, or like it's it's an interchangeable one. Have
have X, will travel travel? Yes, yeah, that's called what

(01:03:58):
it's called a snow clone because he said there's no
word that sums up these phrases that we're all very
familiar with and like customize to our own, like funny,
thank you. He said, it's a tool of a lazy writer.
I kind of get it. Yeah, so. And January, Lazy
movie and economics professor Glenn Whitman coined snow clone at

(01:04:20):
three seconds before ten fifty seven pm, according to time
of publication of his blog. Well, oh okay uh and
he said phrases for light, right, lazy writers, and kit
form of the new cliches. And he said it is
called a snow clone. It is called a snowpline because
it sounds like snow cone, right, yeah. And it's based
off the saying that if they use the E word,

(01:04:42):
but we don't use explorers, lillies, you know the original
E word. If E word have this amount of words
that we can con so you say it, dear Meton, Yeah, no,
I won't do it. You're mother terraser. Not even for
double Dave to call me.

Speaker 5 (01:04:59):
Old.

Speaker 4 (01:05:00):
If the people of the Northern Americas, who live primarily
in icy snow of Inuit tribes have this many words
for snow, then surely X have y words for Z.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
One of the right. So that's the snow clone. Yeah,
it having dozens of words for snow. Germans have as
many for bureaucracy. That was one of them. If have
this many words for snow, fibro my laccics have this
many words for pain. So he said, we'll call it
a snow clone. And that's a kind of The mother

(01:05:32):
of all insert is another famous one. Don't mention mothers,
it just triggers men. Mother of all to rass, the
mother of all battles was Dan Hussein's nineteen ninety one
phrases things like the mother of all traffic jams, the
mother of all downpaurs, the mother of all blah blah blah.
And another one is one does not simply x into y.

(01:05:54):
One does not simply walk into mor door right right
from Lord of the Rings. But and you can interchange that.
I don't always, but when I do, it's it's from
that ad. I always don't always drink beer, but when
I do, it's so sequal, it's too many, yeah, right, But.

Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
When I do, probably have a couple of more than
I should have.

Speaker 1 (01:06:16):
Actually, So today's are in fact of the day is
if there's a cliche saying, we can interchange bits out
and customize it to whatever you're doing. Technically, that is
called a snow clone. Fact of the day, Day Day,
day day, Ye did it?

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Plays Fletch, Vorn.

Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
And Haley right now, who should you not have hooked
up with your naughty little sign. We've all done it,
we've all had a.

Speaker 1 (01:06:52):
Little but we're not We're not all doctors sleeping with patients.
We're not all doctors.

Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
There's an Australian doctor who is currently I reckon, in
the process of losing the job after sleeping with a
patient and it was consensual, the patient said years. But
it all came out in the office and everyone said no, no,
because you're not.

Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Allowed to, not allowed to until what about when they're
not your patient, Like if you had a broken leg
and the doctor's super hot, can they like and they.

Speaker 3 (01:07:18):
Come to they come to fix your leg, and you're like, no, no, no,
trust me, you're not my doctor.

Speaker 1 (01:07:22):
You're not my doctor anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
You're too hot to find me a minger and a
personal level qualified minga.

Speaker 1 (01:07:28):
I don't want to. I don't want to slack on
qualifications fixed. I want it done right. But if your
leg the heels are you then allowed to date that doctor.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:07:41):
I've never hooked up with like a GP or anything
like that, other than that time that doctor Sawney and
I spooned in your.

Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
Spear bed time.

Speaker 3 (01:07:51):
No, it wasn't my doctor at the time. It never
had has.

Speaker 1 (01:07:55):
So that's what I want to know. Who should you
not have hooked up with? Maybe it was you know,
a blank friends sire blank, because did you ever have,
like you hooked up with a friend's brother.

Speaker 3 (01:08:05):
I never slept with any of my brother's mates, because
that would have he would not.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
Have appreciated that.

Speaker 3 (01:08:14):
But that's hang out.

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
But he definitely hooked up with a couple of my pals,
really up with his friend.

Speaker 3 (01:08:21):
But I'm the wottle sister.

Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
Oh yeah, okay'st It's good for the ghost, it's good
for the game.

Speaker 3 (01:08:25):
I know now he couldn't care. But maybe when I
was like a teenager or I've definitely I hooked up
with someone and I.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Was dead for no for a but and then I
did actually really paused.

Speaker 3 (01:08:40):
No, I had to think I wanted it hones start, okay,
and then I hooked up with his best friend for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
And then it was okay, okay about that. I reckon,
we're going to have an echoy. No, it was just
a who We're definitely going to get some juicy stories.
Maybe we were also don't want to hear from people
that I should never have hooked up with the mother
of my kids or the further. Yeah, that's not that's
that's not who do you regret? Howking up with? Who

(01:09:07):

different personality. This is the really hang out with someone

I realized I'd screwed up periferically and and tongue. You
welcome people onto them that I and I was horrified
as a guests that are coming through, and I was

(01:13:20):
like I was being introduced to white of family members
that I'd already hooked up with. No provided the Faro
with a good laugh and dark times, But mag you
definitely asked for before entering into anything after that? Who
was who was just keep it quiet? Who was saying, oh, no,
I've hooked.

Speaker 3 (01:13:39):
Up with you, just just out there in your own
shame and just and when if they catch your eye
you just say shut up.

Speaker 1 (01:13:46):
A second and third cousins, right, which was sort of fine. Yeah,
so fine outside of first. Shouldn't have hooked up with
my pe teacher. I'd lived in school, i'd left school,
but it was an older man. We hooked up in
the cleurbs and a clur can't be having chex and

(01:14:10):
the clurb. I hooked up with my mum's boss when
I was seventeen. She came over for drinks with mum
and mom passed out. She came into my ram jesez. Okay,
stop that story. They said, fully consensual. It was bucketless stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:14:30):
Holy moly.

Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
I should probably shouldn't have hooked up with the cop
that was the leader investigator on my case. Nah, you
should hold though, what was your case like?

Speaker 3 (01:14:41):
It could just be like like a ben, just a
light b and yeah, a little bit of baking eggs.

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
Got to do it. You cooking cooking the bacon and
eggs in the morning though. Yeah, you're breaking in and
cooking bacon and eggs. Yeah, it's a crime. After spilling
out with my ex husband of twenty three years and
telling him he would never hook up with any of
his friends that went in hot that with one of
his friends and his wife, a.

Speaker 3 (01:15:04):
Girl.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
I shouldn't think it.

Speaker 3 (01:15:06):
Softens it by having the other woman there, you know
what I mean. You didn't just go straight for the
other what you're saying. The wife was also welcomed having fun,
a little.

Speaker 1 (01:15:16):
Bit of the heart of ie. You're welcome them onto
the marai if you would. That's right, my beautician's husband.
She should have looked up with him. But I knew
him before she did, so you know, yes, that's okay.
So I don't know if you say you know, I
don't think so. And then you go back to this
woman to get you what your eyebrow's done or some
sort of beauty therapy, and she knows, but she plays
it cool until she's literally waxed your eyebrows. She's waxing

(01:15:37):
you downstairs. She's not the only woman, She's not the
only one in that household that's seen you. Yeah, I
should have take one with her. At high school, there
were identical twins in my year. Among girl hooked up
with both of the twins at different times. The brothers
didn't care. They were more like fair play. But like,

(01:15:57):
you've already done one. What's the point of the other
because you very well know you've got to answer the
question are you identical?

Speaker 3 (01:16:04):
And every fancer someone ticks and kid us anonymous, I
hooked up with my chiropractor for a year.

Speaker 1 (01:16:11):
You need your back on top of you just be
like it just pushed down a little bit. Is this
a TV reference? Because it's very specific. I shouldn't have
hooked up with the married orderly on the halipad at
the hospital where I worked, so having on grazing that
feels like a reference to something. Sorry, but what an

(01:16:32):
amazing place to hook up with someone on for six
of you being a smarty pants? Is it a.

Speaker 5 (01:16:41):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:16:41):
And get one over us?

Speaker 1 (01:16:44):
Okay, well let's leave it this and how silacious, very celestial.
It was very silatious work place.

Speaker 2 (01:16:52):
It ends flitch now, Jinz.

Speaker 3 (01:16:56):
We like to follow their leads sometimes. Remember yesterday this
really out to wear ankle socks again.

Speaker 1 (01:17:01):
Thank you for that, gen Z.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
We can breathe. Finally, the angles are loose. Gen Z
are doing something. They're proposing in high numbers, but not
to their louffers, not to their lovers, to their friends.
They are friend posals or platonic proposals. Um Because gen
Z feel that the most important relationships in their lives

(01:17:23):
are their friendships, not their relationships right, and that friendships
don't often get marked in the same way that romantic
relationship does. A proposal of wedding gifts, anniversary jewelry, that kind.

Speaker 1 (01:17:35):
Of stuff dumb, So they're doing it more dumb. Is
this this strike too, by the way, then they all
get wiped out. Pull your head in friends, not to
do anything dumb. Yeah, because that strike too.

Speaker 3 (01:17:49):
So forty eight percent of gen z feel that their
closest friendships deserve celebrating as much as romantic relationships. Right.
Fifty seven percent of those surveyed say that they would
accept a friend proposal forty seven percent so that happily
live long term with your best friend instead of a partner. See,
I want to come back to Jess, my best friend.

(01:18:10):
I want to live with her when we're older.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
You don't reckon you'd get sick of each other.

Speaker 5 (01:18:13):
God.

Speaker 3 (01:18:13):
No, she's actually coming up for a week next week
and you're going to live with me and we're just
going to hang out just to be around each other.

Speaker 1 (01:18:20):
Okay, it's a joy I feel.

Speaker 3 (01:18:21):
But no, I won't go sick of He'll be amazing,
it will cook and we'll listen to bloody heavy metal
and yeah, that's that's a way.

Speaker 1 (01:18:28):
Ruber and Coke.

Speaker 5 (01:18:29):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:18:33):
So these friend proposals, they could be as elaborate or.

Speaker 1 (01:18:37):
As small as you want. You could. Does it end
in some kind of party or ceremony? Sometimes you can
have a party, You can have a ring, an exchanging
of rings. But oh my god, it's my friend. They're
never getting married. Probably would you marry these people?

Speaker 3 (01:18:55):
But I was, you know, because I've been kind of
scooching around on the idea and sort of peppering it
into your mind fledged that we get married one day?

Speaker 1 (01:19:04):
Absolutely not? Why not? She wants my passport? Have you
heard this? Bizarre? She wants my British past.

Speaker 3 (01:19:10):
There are other people marrying for passports. They have less
of a bond than us, They have not a stronger relationship.

Speaker 1 (01:19:16):
Also, this note, we could prove a history of travel. Well,
breaks it happen, you can't live anywhere. Great to live
in Britain, Oh god, got it? I good to Scotland.

Speaker 3 (01:19:26):
Okay, loophole she's using me to loopholes. Not as good
as we thought the loophole was.

Speaker 1 (01:19:32):
She's using me to get into the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Speaker 3 (01:19:37):
For locals a successful comedy career, marry me would like
I think I think we would make a good married couple.
Our shared wealth ended what just bringing together household, no kids,
shared wealth sharing the sharing.

Speaker 1 (01:19:58):
About marrying mates, but you get all my wealth as well.
It's just gonna mind some other sucker plaz ends.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
Flesh and Haley, we want.

Speaker 3 (01:20:06):
To know right now, how did you find out that
they were cheating? How did you want to discover a cheater?

Speaker 8 (01:20:13):
Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (01:20:14):
It happens to every people all the time, but when
it happens to a celebrity, you're like, wow.

Speaker 3 (01:20:18):
Say Bellathorne ex Disney kid turned adult woman.

Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
Only fans and they're like yeah, I'll have a goalk
at that. And then they paid their money and they're like, ah,
is this her doing the kitchen clean and you're the
one who wanted to see it. It was yes, No
she didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:20:41):
She did naughtiness.

Speaker 1 (01:20:42):
She saw bathwater at once that I think she got
things out for the camera.

Speaker 3 (01:20:46):
I don't think she was taking the mak yeah, taken it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:50):
She was given it. She was giving it.

Speaker 3 (01:20:52):
So she was sharing on call her Daddy the Call
of Daddy podcast that her former fiance she was suspicious
he was cheating, and she found foreign language voice memos
and an Italian speaking Italian very quickly on his phone.
And this person was speaking so quickly as the bloody

(01:21:13):
Italians do that the translation apps were like not working,
and she was like, what the likening it?

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
So she's at an Italian restaurant. He goes to the bathroom.
She's like, what is us? What does this say?

Speaker 3 (01:21:24):
What she goes to she finds an Italian restaurant. She's
in an Italian restaurant and she goes to the server.
Can you translate these? I don't know if if she
got it from his phone or if she was she.

Speaker 1 (01:21:33):
Got it from his phone. He said to her, this
is my past word to get into my phone, help
yourself to anything. And she's like, oh, okay, you know
it doesn't worry moun I'm not into it. But then
she heard him listening to her voice member. She said,
what's that? And he just made up and she's like
that susp that was suspicions. But how did she get
his phone? He gave it to her, but then his phone,
but she didn't understand and all the messages back and

(01:21:57):
forth were in Italian. I get that bit. I'm just like,
how was he away from his phone? Must just gone
to the toilet, I think, yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:22:03):
And then she gave it up to this Italian waiter
who was like that that they're having an a fear
and then she left him, and then later on he
admitted years he'd been cheating on her for the whole
four year relationship.

Speaker 1 (01:22:14):
So like a whole four years throughout the year relationship.
And so where it's the technology, isn't it? Yeah, well
maybe it's not.

Speaker 3 (01:22:22):
Everyone tries to do little crap loopholes like oh, you know,
we've been hearing about people messaging via the Spotify music
sharing chat.

Speaker 1 (01:22:34):
The I mean, I didn't even know that was a thing. Yeah,
I would music and stuff, and you're like, sheer songs
and he hears. Although that would trip you up if
you've got if you're logged in on the TV on
the smart TV, because I've got as the Samsung appen
is on there, and you'd see the thing.

Speaker 3 (01:22:49):
You see the messages. Also, like if you were like
playing music at their house and it was their music,
you'd notice your husband be like why are you listening
to Shanaia Twain endlessly?

Speaker 1 (01:22:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:23:00):
You never listened to this, and it's like your girlfriend
listens to shouldn't. How did you discover.

Speaker 1 (01:23:07):
Okay, I'll wait a hundred dollars at him. Maybe you
went snooping. Maybe you always hear about shared devices outing
people as well, another way that people get caught out cheating.
I wait hundred dollars at them as the number you
can take through nine six nine six.

Speaker 3 (01:23:21):
How did you catch a cheetah?

Speaker 1 (01:23:23):
Lauren said? I found her work name tag in his
pocket while doing the Washinghazy did online research, found his
real name and then his Facebook profile. It showed him
with his wife and kids. So what so this was
the other woman, not knowing, doing the investigating. Insane messages
on a smart watch that was left on the table

(01:23:44):
were popping up while he was on his phone in
the lounge. Message in them, So I.

Speaker 3 (01:23:48):

I'd plot the late, spiciest way to.

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Call it him out.

Speaker 3 (01:23:55):
Yeah, just absolutely, just play it out.

Speaker 1 (01:23:57):
I'll probably cry. And there were data yep. So my
daughter's iPad, I was like, that's where he clicked on
it opened he was using the daughter's as the device
to do the No, so it wasn't on his phone.
Why is my four year old got tender? Literally walked
into a bar and found him with his tongue not

Myself and an MMF, I've got two choices. No, you've
got one choice. Be gay, will be homophobic. If you otherwise,

girls know their hair tires because the black ones. Yeah,
white around the hair tie.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
I found that my best friend was cheating with my
sister's husband as she snapchaded a raunchy launchy message and
accidentally sent it to me instead of him, as both
of our names start with the same letter.

Speaker 1 (01:25:50):
What your best friend? That ageous? Yeah, undeniable energy Before
heading out for a meeting he was having. I checked
my husband's phone release leaping, was about to give up
and felt bad for looking, and then clicked on signal
app oh bam. I was quite far behind on my
intuition and it had been happening for a little while.
What signal was that? Yeah? Which time? What do you mean?

(01:26:16):
They want to know which time they caught their cheating partner?
When his affairs husband's screenshot his messages and sent them
to me when his other woman texted me asking who
I was when he admitted to years before but not
now when he said it was my fault. Oh my god,
you've got a real ship there. Someone said this was
last week, oh fresh my kids milk, and it would

(01:26:37):
still be good. Sorry, and I hate that.

Speaker 3 (01:26:38):
We're like, oh, you're sorry for you Sorry, Okay, so
this was last week. My kid's dad gave one of
my toddlers his phone to watch YouTube on one morning
so he could get some more sleep. My toddler came
out with the phone and handed it to me and
it was on a secret Instagram page that his and
I that was his and I obviously looked at it

(01:27:00):
and it was all these beautiful women. Then he was
following thousands of them and he was messaging all of them.
And then I had no idea that some of the
message how far they were going, but it was very suggestive.
Immediately felt sick. That was just last week messaging people
planning to meet them and whatnot.

Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
Goodness, I worked out my dad was cheating on my mum.
First sign was he started wearing jeans instead of stubby
shorts of a man then primarily has pride himself for
being a short sky all starts wearing long pants. Asked
some questions. Ah, my first boyfriend brackets, absolute drop, cack
clothed brackets. Cheated with a friend of a friend. I
saw her texting him on a night out when we

(01:27:34):
were and then went snooping once I got home. Sad
to say, started way long ago, but eventually I found
myself a stad after dealing with this. Oh that sucks.
Oh her hair brush was left on my bedside table.

Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
He tried to say it was our flatmates, but she
has her own end of the house, so why would
she put her hair brush? Yeah, no, one's table.

Speaker 1 (01:27:56):
When I found a letter from another woman who was
also my best friend to clearing her, I think she
meant to write undying love to him. Hearing her unhinged
loved for him may mean do we hear back about
the Was it a male or female that found We
haven't heard back? Oh my goodness, please come on from them?
Come on? Tis what you do when?

just looking at it. One of them like pretending not
to look, but looking at it.
