Speaker 1 (05:01):
Was that singer that was in Auckland this week? Was

contract Sorry, Okay, what was I doing? Real life dating
advice from romanticy authors. Healthy relationships come easier once you
know yourself, says Carissa.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
You can't find your identity through a partner. She says,
only you can do that.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Oh, even fantasy kings prefer a self assured partner.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
So that's that's, that's for the for the reader. I
guess to me, you know you can't go looking for that.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Shanorah Williams got these names are bloody grat but he
was someone who brings peace, safety in a sense of home.
Choose a person who makes you feel seen and calm,
not chaotic. Well, Shanora, that means I'll never find love.
I'm tookot. So that's terrible advice for people who want
to be looking at me. Jennifer l armand armand Trout.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
That made up that name? A r emmy n t r.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
O U T trout, Mike armatro Off breaking bad.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
That was his name. Wasn't that okay?

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Her advice is if he wouldn't irritate a dragon to
make you smile, he doesn't deserve a second date.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
And that's crap. Mikayla de Horna doo Horna, do remember
you are the if I wanted to wait for the.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Right person beats forcing the wrong relationship. Kimberly Lemming says,
if they're rude to serve as staff, dump them. I've
never never bet such a red flag. That is, life's
too short for unkind or uninterested partners. And also give
a short king of go and L. Kennedy says, I'm
not going to read all of them because I don't know.
This is I'm sort of quite distracted by that eight
foot man on that dating app al, Kennedy says, never chase,

(06:56):
be chased. The right person won't make you beg for
attention or decode mixed signal and real interest is obvious.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, some great advice. We'll leave you to that.

Speaker 5 (07:08):

Speaker 5 (13:53):
Sex that M podcast Network plays ms FLEA.

Speaker 3 (14:01):
People are doing things quietly, not a life I'm used to.
I like to announce when I'm doing something low.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Quiet quitting we've talked about before. An employee performs only
the bare minimum requirements of their job rather than going
above and beyond, sort of pulling back and be like,
I'm also open to other jobs. I'm gonna sort of
slide out of this quiet. You like this? You like this?
Put it in gear like coasting a neutral situation?

Speaker 6 (14:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Why not down?

Speaker 6 (14:30):
Hell?

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, you're just always looking for hells. Yeah, I'm just
always looking for more downhills.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yeah, but eventually to find more downhills, you gotta go
up to go up.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Wow. Motivation, it was motivational. Wow.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Okay, Now because when it comes to going up, I'll
just hook my wagon on somebody else's horse.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yeah, but that's okay, okay, because sometimes we need horses
in life. Wow. Wow yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Have we just found the new mal Robins?

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (14:57):
We have.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
You know what, well, people are also now quietly exiting
their relationships quiet?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yeah what quiet? Breaking up? Quite divorcing.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
They call it slow, silent emotional withdrawal, long before any
kind of formal announcement of a split.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Right, who's doing this? More men or woman? This a
good question.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
They even broken it down genderly, because gender is a
societal construct.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Right, It's just it's got big woman energy.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Just say what you're feeling. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Early signs are tiny, often ignored, bids for connection, brushed
off conversations, emotional distancing, boredom and routine erode.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Closest and passion over years. Now, let's marriage marriage. That's
why the statistics of marriage. Aren't you just describing marriage? Yes?

Speaker 6 (15:49):
Off.

Speaker 3 (15:49):
You've gotta be careful though, because modern pressures like the
pressure for endless excitement and social media comparisons we're saying, yeah,
we're doing this can often make normal dips, which are
part of me marriage and long term relationships, feel like
these big deal breakers. Women often spot the disconnections. Here
we go, there's a little bit of a comment here.
Women often spot the disconnect first because we carry more

(16:11):
emotional labor.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Men are often the ones withdrawing.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
Decline can sometimes be reversed with small acts, so catching
it early, responding to bids, showing more appreciation, adding you know,
some fun elements springing at a third Yeah, I'm just
throwing out there, go visiting a little store and shopping
around all.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
These you know.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Sometimes the quiet face has a signed the relationship has
just run its course, and most relationships don't end in explosions.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
This is often how things go, a little white quit,
a little slip away from it all.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
Just say it. If you want someone to do something,
just say it interesting, ponder that. I think I'm actually
gonna take some time to just ponder that, and don't forget.
If you ever need to hit your hits your wagon too.
A horse for an up pearl for an uphill.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Battle before a beautiful, slow, easy to climb, find yourself
a good horse. Wow.

Speaker 8 (17:15):

I like to think I'm solid Mary as well. I'm
definitely not a Mary. No, No, you're an f I'm
getting or I'm getting killed. Nah. Nah. Believe in yourself.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Also believe when we asked this question there might have
been some kanfuzzles about they thought we were asking you
to pick which one of fletch one and Haley you were,
which an interesting little I don't think I couldn't handle it.
I don't think Hailey needs that. She wouldn't handle it.
She thinks she's so if any I can't have it

(18:22):
there she hadn't.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Just see, that's what people were saying. From from your
dealing with the people's responses. Where are we at? She's
a bit much? Is that?

Speaker 4 (18:31):
Was that?

Speaker 1 (18:31):
It?

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (18:34):
It was either or Haley, and I think you'd appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Yeah, So it's it's a straight Mary every time. And
then people are killing me. Fine, would you rather be
you or me? No?

Speaker 2 (18:47):
You, I'm getting all the m's. You're either getting the
air for the k Yeah. You guys are splitting the
we're splitting the We're quite divisive characters.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
I mean, I just think we're bold personalities and you
can't handle us. And that's actually more of a you Isshue.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
That's how I'm choosing to afflict on that star. First,
go for it, yees over there? Vanilla? Is it as
orange choc chip era?

Speaker 2 (19:16):
Van is gone? It's gone? Thirty two flavors. Pick up
a scoot, but we choose which one you want and
how many you want and if you want a waffle
or a stamp co wow.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Well, for those that did answer correctly about themselves when
people play this game, well, thirty six percent of people
believe that they would be the kill option. Oh, forty
four percent believe that they would be the marry option,
and only twenty percent believe themselves to be the Oh wow,
that's a lot of you know, Okay, so feedback on it.
Jody said, people would definitely choose to kill me. I'm

(19:53):
a fat, opinionated white woman. My god, who will call
you out on your ship? I have no doubt this
is the reality, and I have zero issues about it.
Wouses depends on I'm put it against two other mingas
I might get a marry, but probably against hot people.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
It's game over for me. Ash, she could be the
marry option totally.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
Ben said, I assume they can't peck for me between
for or Mary. Right, Okay, he doesn't think he's been killed, Bet,
and I found out that one bitch at works that
should kill me, and I didn't speak to her after that.
To me, if sure, I am, but you probably proved
a point there, bit like you were, you probably proved
a point.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Yeah, this is exactly how I imagine this would happen.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
I love this, Laura says, mainga heir, so no ifs
I reckon, I'm a Wellington five at best. I'm loyal though,
so people probably choose Mary better than kill so I'll
take it. Yeah. Nice, okay, cass, Okay, but how often
has this game being played?

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Who still does this endlessly? Endlessly?

Speaker 2 (20:58):
As soon as there's as soon is like a trio
anything you immediately have to play it. Yeah yeah, Neves said, marry.
I'm good in bed, but I'm not hot enough to
just be a one off.

marry unless it was he'd be okay as a wedding celebrant.

Speaker 1 (21:26):

Speaker 2 (21:28):

I love the end of year wrap ups. It's just
so nice to look back and be like, oh, those
were the trends. And Tinder's done it as well. They
don't do a personalized one where they say that you
swiped X amount of.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
Times you're a manga or like people swiped left on

for Tinder sort of into the year thing and looking
ahead to what we're going to be into for twenty
twenty sacks the young people gen z done with mind
games and like will they won't they remember we talked
about being chalant not a word.

Yeah, and it's kind of post lockdown and pandemic years.
It's made everybody just cut to the chase.

Speaker 3 (26:12):

out of mixed messages and guessing. The new trend is
clear coding and chalants say what you want be straight up.
Ambiguity is out, Transparency is in first sight.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
How many kids are we having just like, hey.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
Hi, this is a thing. And definitely I've noticed on
my year of being being on dating apps for the
first time in my life, is that that is the way,
and it's so great. It's so refreshing and you go
into a date being like cool, Yeah, this is the expectation.
Emotional honesty is sexy Australians. Sixty four percent of young
Australians say dating needs more emotional honesty, clearer intentions. Majority

(26:51):
of people want to go on a date where they
can fully be themselves. Authenticity is the new currency, vibe
coding for emotional connections deep, not dramatic, basically like the
whole like summary of it is clear intentions, honest energy, values, alignment,
low key romance, best approved dates, and hope.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
The right monogamy out is it for you? Is it
you saying that?

Speaker 1 (27:17):

right and for men, male adolescents can extend into their
mid thirties, the time that they really kind of land
in an adult okay life.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
Do you know how they got this information?

Speaker 3 (27:44):
The specific research by scanning the WhatsApp chants of women
in their thirties.

Encryption safe to be submitted, I'm imagining they were submitted.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Yeah, scanned the WhatsApp chats of women in their thirties,
single women who are outdating and found keywords through their
chats about when they when they talk about men.

These groups, these WhatsApp chats with women flaky, children, quite dull, cowardly,
are project and awful and expressing his feelings.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Okay, isn't that wild? So basically validating it.

a carwhen just kind of accidentally gave us a hack.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
And it was amazing.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
It was the calculator calculator hair conversion hack on the calculator.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
It was amazing and also wild.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
And on a day we're bad news, Bread is in
studio and about to talk to us about the economy,
and you've got a money saving hack for us.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Yeah. And I think Bread is only allowed to give
a rating if he likes it. No, that's not how
life works.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
You don't go to a bakery and they don't say,
please only review us if you like this cake. They
don't do that, do they.

Just you know, morning you were locked down.

your hack.

Speaker 10 (36:07):
Okay, well, we're heading into Christmas and I love a
bit of a festive whimsy in my life. And there
is nothing yummier than a little peppermint hot chocolate yum.
Right now, peppermint hot chocolates can get real spinny if
you're heading off to a cafe.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
Or anything, does.

Speaker 4 (36:26):
It is?

Speaker 1 (36:27):
That's very American of the yum. Okay, are you talking
about getting a hot chocolate and they squirt that liquid
extra and they charge you extra for that, And then
if you're getting all these extra things, I worry.

Speaker 6 (36:40):
I know where this is going.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
I've got a way to make a really cheap.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
There.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
What about a men though, little menthold dart No, no, Haley.

Speaker 10 (36:53):
What I want you to do is head to your
local work kitchen where there's a bunch of amenities, right
and grab a little pippermint tea bag and brew yourself
a nice cup of tea. And then I want you
to add in your Milo mixture that you have at
any hot chocolate mixture.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
So discussed, and go and make one. I dare you,
Yeah I will. Yeah, We've got Milo and pippermint tea yucky.

Speaker 10 (37:20):
Then you're saving all this money and it's free, and
now you're at work enjoying a nice little whimsical Christmas
drink for free?

Speaker 6 (37:27):
May I add, are you enjoying it?

Speaker 1 (37:29):
This is almost a written warning. I feel like I'm
almost taken this up myself from physical assault. Yeah, I
was going to swear I was gonna say, yeah, you know, look,
I think we can probably just end it here with
We've got a guess jo.

Speaker 7 (37:47):
Look, it probably does it saves you money, but like,
does it does it really bring you enough enjoyment?

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Is it?

Speaker 7 (37:53):
Put it this way, I thought you were going to
say you're going to dip a candy cane into a
miler or something and let it.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
Sort of it's a delicious chocolate chocolate and stir it
with a candy cane. And I thought it was going
to be having Eclipse three stars for Brad's hack, your
three stars for bread.

Speaker 6 (38:10):
But it's building on Shennon. So Shennon's got should I
claim that?

Speaker 10 (38:13):
How are we having two days in a row where
I don't get a hack?

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Somebody did say, I mean this is coming on the
back of Carlhen's amazing hack yesterday, only makes us hacks
used that Carwen's hack on the calculator like four times.

Speaker 10 (38:27):
Oh, someone just text and that I'm confusing ideas with
hacks and.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Confusing ideas. I'm telling what you've done there is you
have confused ideas for hacks. Okay, one one? Well one, yeah,
that's minimum school.

Speaker 7 (38:46):
For bread too, because I said I had to give
at least an additional one.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
Three because the candy cake will be quite sweet. Well
that's my idea. No, you get three, Shannon gets one,
Carwen got five from the well, I guess we'll we'll
leave that there.

Speaker 10 (39:06):
Thank you.

Some questions and from listeners for you, Brad, what what
are we getting mom and Dad for Christmas this year?

Speaker 6 (42:53):
Brad?

Speaker 2 (42:54):
That's from your sister Brock stopping a grench, she said,
stopping a grunch?

Speaker 1 (42:58):
And what are we getting mom and Dad's?

Speaker 6 (43:00):
Hold you were reading that one out? Well whatever, Brook buyers.
I will then with the cards.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
A great question to kick things off, why aren't all
economists billionaires if they can predict the future of our economy?

Speaker 6 (43:11):
Well, because yeah, it's a great one.

Speaker 7 (43:14):
Probably because we predict everything, and then none of it
completely comes true because unlike we're the forecasters, right, we're
the forecasters. They tell it's going to rain. They can't
influence the clouds. Economic forecasters, you'll listen to what we say,
and then you directly make sure it doesn't happen because
you react to it. I say things are going to
be tough, everyone goes and tries to shelter themselves, and
then it changes the economy.

Speaker 2 (43:34):
That's how get out of jail free. Card Like that one, right,
I like that one. It's I'm worth buying a house
or renting? What do we do with our ten thousand
dollars savings?

Speaker 7 (43:43):
I don't know if you're going to use ten k
to necessarily outright buy a house, but hey, it's an option.
I think the big one at the moment, because a
lot of people are talking about either investing or what
they want to.

Speaker 6 (43:52):
Do with their own home.

Speaker 7 (43:53):
The difficult or the difficulty compared to a couple of
years ago on the housing market, you used to just
be able to buy it like any house, and it
just made megabacks. Like a couple years ago, you were
better to be made of weatherboard than flesh and bone
in terms of earning potential.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
Not now, of course, but when you sat a couple
of years, you're you meant more than a couple of years.

Speaker 6 (44:09):
Okay, a few, Yeah, what three one, twenty two?

Speaker 1 (44:14):
It's three years higher the market, wouldn't it.

Speaker 6 (44:16):
Yeah, that's what.

Speaker 7 (44:17):
But that's the thing that was making megabucks at that time,
and so everyone was getting into it. Now that's been
challenging recently. The point though, is that if you're thinking
about housing as similar, you are having to think about
it much more as a long term play. You're not
going to make a whole bunch of cash on it
in terms of big capital gains or eything short to.

Speaker 2 (44:31):
Those days are gone to reckon people. Do you think
people have been burnt by the last five years.

Speaker 7 (44:36):
Definitely? And look, I'm not gonna lie. I actually think,
and I know this is tough to hear. I still
think it's one of the best things we've done as
a country is move away from just being housing the
most important economic trend. Ever, now we're just having to
be a little bit more sensible. So, yes, people are
making money still sometimes as investors or as landlords.

Speaker 6 (44:53):
But you've got to pick the right house.

Speaker 7 (44:54):
You've got to have the right structures instead of just
blindly fumbling into a house and going, you know what,
I'm now a millionnaire.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
So kind of a few questions get a brand said someone,
Is there any reason why I shouldn't be leaving for Australia.
A lot of people I know going over the ditch
and getting more money, better paying jobs.

Speaker 7 (45:10):
Well yeah, I mean, look, there are of course quite
a lot of keys going highest numbers ever heading out
of the country and heading off to ours.

Speaker 6 (45:18):
And that's the thing.

Speaker 7 (45:18):
I mean, it's one of there's still more people moving
to New Zealand, then there are moving out of New Zealand.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Where are they coming from?

Speaker 6 (45:24):
They're coming from a whole bunch of places. We know
that the two biggest elands.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
No more lovely, brown, skin light eyed people.

Speaker 7 (45:32):
Well we get some the likes of the Philippines, China, India,
those are sort of the top contributors. But look, I
think the thing is, yeah, there's sometimes different opportunities in
other countries. Yes, there's also you know, snake spiders, everything else.
I think it depends on sort of the life you're living,
the job you've got. One of the reasons, for example,
We know that New Zealanders come back to New Zealand
is often because they're about to have kids and they

(45:53):
want some family support and you can't get them in
Australia if your parents are living here. So yeah, totally
it's horses for courses. If you've found an opportunity, then
maybe it is worthwhile looking at. But if you've got
a good opportunity in New Zealand at the moment, then
it's worthwhile sort of tossing up. Is the grass always
greener or are you're just being led by what everyone
else is saying?

Speaker 2 (46:09):
Because I'm easy, I've been there a lot in the
last like this year alone. It's not that much cheaper
when you go out to the supermarket.

Speaker 7 (46:17):
And this is what you hear often right, not only
about Australia, but also you know, I've got a lot
of friends in London who say, like, yes, I make
a lot more money and I also have to pay
a lot more money for like the Tube and everything else.
So if you're earning money in a different country, then
you probably you might be more sort of same same
in terms of what you're spending out At the same time,
high earning is high spending. So it depends on your

(46:37):
lifestyle opportunities and everything else. You know, people go across
to Australia sometimes for a quick person then come back.
They go to Europe because they can go and travel around.
But I like New Zealand.

Speaker 1 (46:45):
Maybe more sugar daddies in London though, yeah, definitely some rich,
rich posh daddy is yeah, and notting Hell or something.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Okay, here's one. My partner and I own our own
home and a debating renovating our kitchen. I'm for the
kitchen renovation as the person that seems to spend mone
of your day in the kitchen, but my partner isn't.
As it's not our forever home. Is it worth spending
the money on this? Is it won't be our forever
home but definitely will be for the next few years.

Speaker 7 (47:08):
Well, it comes down to how much probably time you
do spend in the kitchen. Like, if that's a pretty
important thing to you, then I could understand wanting to
upgrade it a bit. I guess the challenge that could
you compromise a bit more. Maybe it's not the full
reno that you want to do, but what are the few,
like top three things that you could do to the
kitchen to make it a little bit better so you
can get that past your partner, but also so that
you've got a more comfortable experience.

Speaker 6 (47:28):
Because I get that, I think.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
I don't think it to be a dream kitchen. N Yeah.

Speaker 7 (47:31):
The challenge I worry a lot sometimes with how people
approach money is that we sometimes and I'm not saying
go out and absolutely spend it, but I worry that
sometimes we say, you know what, let's save up for
you know, the long term, at the expense always of
the short term, and like, yes, you want to have
savings for a time and absolutely, but I don't know
if you want to get to a time and age
and go, gosh, it's nice to have all this money

(47:52):
that now I can't spend because I'm old and decrepit
and can't use it. Like there is a balance here
to getting it right. You need to save for the future,
you also need to live your life.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Did we answer the question about what you should do
with your mortgage?

Speaker 6 (48:04):
Look that not.

Speaker 7 (48:05):
Financial advice has always gone to talk to professional and
all those bits and bobs, But we are seeing soonly
after the last Reserve Bank change, interest rates came down,
But people have also been sort of worrying the interest
rates might be about to go up in a year's
at time, so people are.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
I just don't want to hear that.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
The one redeeming quality of this year has been interest
rates coming down.

Speaker 1 (48:31):
And I don't mind they say.

Speaker 7 (48:32):
I'm not saying they're going to go up massively. I'm
just saying they could go up a touch now. Importantly,
that means that for people that might have changed their
mortgage earlier this year, they might not have too much
for a change come you know, a year's time, but
just worth keeping that in mind. That's why, you know,
put it this way, people are starting to opt for
slightly longer mortgages. You know, previously it was like six
months or even just floating. Now it's more sort of

(48:54):
a year. You're seeing some people that are going, hey,
it's four point nine nine percent for five years too long,
too big, And for a lot of people are going, well,
you know what, it's it's a long time, but it's
really stable.

Speaker 6 (49:03):
I can see the budget around.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Yeah. One more question, Um, I'm getting a sum of
money soon, is it better to pay down the mortgage?

Speaker 1 (49:11):
Which means I wouldn't have less than one hundred thousand
dollars left to power. Oh, there'd be nice. Or should
I invest the money? I'm early thirties.

Speaker 7 (49:19):
If that makes a difference, Ah, yeah, it probably does
make a difference. I think it's probably you'd want to
look at what your various interest rates are if you
think you could, and your risk tolerance. It's one of
those things if I'm not saying you should do this,
but what you'd weigh up there is how much your
mortgage repayment rate might be. Let's say it's I don't know,
five point five percent. If you think you can make
a continual return from the stock market at seven percent,
then maybe that is a bit of bit. But you'd

(49:40):
have to be willing to go through all the ups
and downs of the AI market blowing up every Friday
or whatever, and your stop market sort of going up
and down. So it's on risk tolerance. It's sort of
understanding what's going to make you feel more comfortable. Are
you're a defensive person and more aggressive person? How are
you balancing that out?

Speaker 1 (49:54):
Soone I just want to text in a round to
say that Brad's a QD.

Speaker 2 (49:57):
There you go, that's not a question finished than bred

Speaker 5 (52:58):
The ZNM podcast Needwork plays z m's flesh Fore and Haley.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
Lovely listeners, We would like to know what did you
lie about to get a job, little white lie or
maybe a massive one. Give us a call or a text,
because Channing Tatum and Criston Dance were promoting their new
film and in the film Channings Channings Tatum. No, that's
when there's two of them. Yeah, Channing's Tatum, Channing and Tatum.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
His character lies to get a job, and so the
interview was asking him in Kirsten, have they ever lied
to get a job? And he said for the Great
Iconic two thousand and six rom com with Amanda Bynes,
she's the man, yep, jewelry watch I reckon he liked
and said that he did play soccer because his character's
on the soccer team and he got the job and

(53:45):
he had to quickly learn.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
How to do it well in that film. Does he
actually play soccer that much?

Speaker 2 (53:52):
No?

Speaker 1 (53:52):
No, no, it's trying fine. For am he said, I
was pretty athletics, so I sleeked it as much as
I needed to. Anyone was like, what you were athletic?

Speaker 3 (53:59):
We didn't even know us, And Kirsten Dunt said not
like earlier, earlier when she was a child actress, and
she didn't add it was a holes commercial and it
was ice skating, and she said she could do it,
and she got the job and was like, slip sliding around.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
That's something you're going to come a mischief. Ice skating
is so much harder than it. There's some things you
you wouldn't lie about that that would definitely be one
of them. Friend of mine has been applying for jobs
late lately, and I was just like, why don't you
just lie? And she's like, can't line. She's like, you
forget you're.

Speaker 1 (54:30):
A white man. Yeah, white man.

Speaker 11 (54:33):

Speaker 9 (55:04):
The chop on, Get to the chopper, vaugh On, get
you the chopper.

Speaker 1 (55:08):
It's not getting better. It's just not getting better that
I can.

Speaker 2 (55:12):
I've definitely done it like they were like, do you
know how to use this some music program? And I
was like, of course I do, And they just told myself.

Speaker 1 (55:19):
Yeah, it's easier.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
To fake it until you make it now more than
ever before, especially with chet GPT. Someone just ticks and
well doesn't count. I told my employees that my mental
health is in tip top four.

Speaker 1 (55:33):
You have to take that one.

Speaker 6 (55:35):
We'll take it.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
I wait one hundred dollars in him. Would love you
to call us now and tell us so you can

about to get your job?

Speaker 3 (55:46):
Yes, Channing Tatum said that he could play soccer to
do She's the Man, and Kirsten.

Speaker 1 (55:50):
Dunt said she could ice skate to be in an ad.
They can't do none of those lies, lies, lies said.
I rested and looked up someone who used to work
for me.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
Her LinkedIn profile for that job is an absolute fabrication,
basically lists all of.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
My managerial tasks that I did as her own when
she was at wow Nave Good morning. What did you
lie about to get the job? I told my job
I can do CPR.

Speaker 10 (56:18):
Me.

Speaker 1 (56:19):
It is kind of a matter of life or death.
Don't put me in that situation please. Yeah, So did
you ever have to do it? Or thankfully no? Thank god?

Speaker 7 (56:29):
No book drink?

Speaker 1 (56:31):
Yeah, I mean I reckon. If you've got the job,
still go learn how to do it. Just fake it
like how sand.

Speaker 6 (56:43):
And then.

Speaker 5 (56:45):
I hate my job.

Speaker 1 (56:47):
So honestly, if anybody's in that sor don't come to me,
I'm not going to Sorry.

Speaker 6 (56:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
If I was the local CPR expert not lied when
it came time, I'd faint and so the pressure made
my maybe pass out.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
Yes, exactly, exactly. Nay, thank you, Kimberly, What did you
lie about to get your job?

Speaker 11 (57:06):
So I've always worked in customer service. I was fourteen,

love working with people.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
Okay, and you can hear you hate talking to us.
They are people are the worst. They are. What's your
worst customer service? Like what someone said to you or done.

Speaker 11 (57:30):

mostly business people that say it was a quest.

Y yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 11 (57:43):
One of the regular customers came down and said to
me that I purposely put them in a room next
to a crying baby?

Speaker 4 (57:52):
Was that me?

Speaker 2 (57:55):
Was that me? I'd say something like that. I kimberly,
thank you, Emily. What did you lie about to get
a job?

Speaker 12 (58:05):
I lied that I could drive a manual?

Speaker 1 (58:08):
Okay? And then what did you do when you actually
had to drive the manual?

Speaker 4 (58:12):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (58:13):
Well there was the only one I learned.

Speaker 1 (58:14):
I guess, yeah, just in first gear the whole way.

Speaker 12 (58:17):
Yeah, yeah, I like a couple of weeks before the job,
I tried to learn, and my friends like scungey little
Twitter Corolla, and then I just had to hop in
a four wheel drive on my first day of the job.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
And then.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
I did the same thing.

Speaker 3 (58:33):
I said I could drive a manual, and then I
it was for a TV show and they had a
camera mounted on the bonnet of a seventies manual car.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
Oh, they're hard to drive, and then they were like
off you go.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
And then yeah, you sort of just sort of crank
it around a bit and soon I'm in third and
I just didn't start.

it's too it's too cold to get you to take
your mittens off to get a vivid out. Do you
remember the store the situation where someone put giant balls
at the bottom of the Hockney carrot.

Speaker 1 (01:03:04):
Oh my god, the council had to officially remove them.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
How does the council detach the balls from the I
don't know how what the balls were made of.

Speaker 1 (01:03:12):
It's funny, though, it's funny. That's funny.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):
In twenty thirteen, this was a This was vandalism. Somebody
opened the storage valves and dumped about forty thousand liters
of milk.

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
And the white cuts Oh damn, yeah yeah? Or green?

Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
Now you go yellow top off the calm. Yeah, if
you're going to dump it into the might have just
been raw, okay, raw milk.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
I didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
The Duneedian train station, they say one of New Zealand's
most photograph buildings. I would believe one of New Zealand's
most I will simply not believe it's the Southern Hemisphere's
most photographed building because of the Cydney Opera House and
the skytower alone, I see people every day photos. It
is also highly sought afterward Dunedin taggers to have their

(01:03:58):
scrawl displayed on the on the Dunedin train stession, and
it sparked a graffiti war and a cost the council
tens of thousands of dollars to put up anti graffiti
coating right to stop. I've always thought it'd be quite
a funny idea because I live in the city and
there's so much tagging.

Speaker 1 (01:04:16):
Tag that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
I remember the police turned up, but I was sort
of be really funny to like make a giant like
white billboard and leave a ladder or some scaffolding up
to it, but have a trap door underneath it, and
then when they're graffitiing, you just flick a switch and
catch them in a knit and then you spray paint
them or dip them into a giant tub of paint

(01:04:38):
and then say how does that feel?

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we should a TV show like that.
That'd be fun.

Speaker 6 (01:04:45):
Face various legal.

Speaker 2 (01:04:46):
That TV show that used to lock the car burglars
in the car and fill it with fine that's funny.
It's funny called that TV show. And they did a
whole range of things. These guys at the giant phone
and it was like didly you do? And it was
in the movies it's like a one meter long phone?
Was it?

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
That guy?

Speaker 2 (01:05:04):
Jolly and I can't they were The best one was
where they went and to steal the car and the
car locked them in and then they pulled the car
into a cage and paraded them around town. Yeah see,
they would be brilliant public now because it's like, yeah,
so today's back to the day is New Zealand has
had its fair share on high profile vandalysm case.

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
In fact of the day Day Day Day Day, did
did deep all?

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
This is what we're hearing, is that the IKEA news
has scared people so much they've either left super early
or they've made other arrangements like public transforms.

Speaker 3 (01:09:51):
So you would you would personally say that us getting
a literal helicopter organized was sort of a waste of money.

We've paid for this helicopter. It feels like, well, I mean, well,
what's the traffic light?

Speaker 2 (01:11:06):
Well, you know, I'm personally in dick because I've learned
how to fly a helicopter.

Speaker 1 (01:11:09):
I was keeping a secret.

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
I've I've been to helicopter school.

Speaker 1 (01:11:13):
Nobody believes you're flying.

Speaker 6 (01:11:14):
That helicopter, the alicopter.

We'll come back to your nicks if we can have
some motorway on ramp off ramp kind of like tramp

Ikea for the grand opening. And I believe this may
be the biggest waste of money in the history of radio.

Speaker 1 (01:12:18):

is no traffican's way quieter than usual.

Speaker 2 (01:12:24):

Okay, okay, here we go, all right, but we're up
here in the jet range of running the Southwestern.

Speaker 2 (01:12:31):

look at the morning. Motorized misery started down south State
Highway One from Papa Photos through Monico's.

Speaker 1 (01:12:38):
Running free and easy, good speeds, does bench point.
