(02:29):
shenanigans and we'll talk about it.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Next The fletch Worn and Haley Big Pod.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
There's a really cute raccoon story, and you know, any
excuse to talk about raccoons.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
For me, they're very cute.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
I'll go a raccoon over a badger, a raccoon over
a skunk.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Raccoons seem to just be more chill and more friendly
and more rascally stunts.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
I think I like better. I think I like badges
better than badges are aggressive.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Remember there was that story about that Gordon Ramsey look
alike got stuck in a badger hole.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Yes, yes, Also, no badges are yuck.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
They're pointer here, whereas raccoons are more sort of.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Cute, like oh.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, Well, in Virginia, a liquor store has surveillance footage
of a raccoon breaking in and smashing bottles and then
drinking heaps of booze and then and then in the
morning they came in and it was past the passed
out on the toilet floor between the toilet and the rubbish.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Classic. That's that's what happens when you drink too much booze.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
But how did it get the lids off.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
No, just drag the bottles off the shells and smashed
and then dragged the bottles of boom then did a
floor suck as international drinking laws.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah, yeah, hang on.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
It is a funny image though, to think of a
raccoon with its little paws like doing like a crack
the lids. Yeah, yeah, getting it open, putting on at
shot poorer.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
There's like quite a bit of cute like security footage
of it, like falling over and like stumbling and then
climbing up to get more.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
And it's lucky.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I'm just watching the watcha. I'm just looking at this

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Like full you know, you know when you need to
lie down in a tiled bathroom and you trading it
as much of your surface area on cold tiles, douse.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
You need to cool down.

Speaker 3 (04:14):

No harm, no foul, just with a little bit of
a hangover and a blue power rate and.

Be like, Lula, you just want some status, some social status,
some social status. Is it not enough that you like,
you know, you're hosting a new TV show that's coming

But they'll be like, oh, look at this brand new show.
She's not elite. Let's what they'll say here.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
She's an airpoints jade.

Speaker 5 (06:52):
Okay, now hear me out, okay, and I will not
name and shame. But there is another New Zealand comedian
who was three points away from elite.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah it's Jeremy, okay, and quickly throwing that won't name

Speaker 5 (07:11):
He said the other day he'd booked a little flight
in order to.

Speaker 5 (07:22):
But then he was like, I'll make a thing out,

Somewhere this weekend to just run because there's no other
way of getting it. I have to fly to.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
But you don't need to get it this weekend.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Another time, I know I'm literally flying and generous.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
That's fine.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
Then I wanted to come in and rub it in
Shannon's face.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Someone just takes message in calling in New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
If you're five points short, the team can help with
us and gift them.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
No what then I'm.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
Just as bad as Shannon.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
You will always be able to call you a Nippo.

Speaker 6 (07:59):

Speaker 1 (08:00):
But the thing is they do that if like, if.

Speaker 3 (08:03):

Take a flight anywhere if last last a year, needs
a few points to keep it. Plus if you don't qualify,
they sometimes let you keep it anyway. But this thing is,
I've got.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
To earn it.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
You don't want to be a Nippo.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
I can't because it's not gonna it's not gonna hit
the same when I earned this, Yeah, right around.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Yeah, so I reckon you could you could call them

Speaker 5 (09:06):
So you want to spend four hundreds of But wouldn't
it be nice if you were finally able to bring
a girlfriend home for your family Christmas this week in Flinch.

Speaker 4 (09:18):

Speaker 1 (09:51):
And so sorry? Can I just get this right?

Speaker 3 (09:55):
You just live to rub things in other people's faces
genuinely years.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
The podcast network.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
From the Fletchborn and Haley group chat, this is the
top six Netflix wants to buy Warner Brothers. I think
this has to go through some sort of approval process.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
Yeah, I don't really understand it. Other than this. It
often happens, doesn't it. Big companies acquire a whole brand
and then they sort of make it one big Frankenstein thing.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, but it'd be huge.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Like I mean, Warner Brothers make so many shows that
you know and movies. Yeah, they own a lot of IP. Yeah,
than in all of our HBO. Yeah, because it's like
Warner Brothers is one of the original Hollywood studios. Yeah,
it's been around since, you know, over one hundred years.
It's just acquired so much over that time. But one

(10:51):
hundred and twenty four billion dollar deal. Wow, through I'll
just put it out there. I reckon Netflix will go
up a couple of bucks if this goes.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
If this happens from all, that's the.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
Most even more expensive one I serving over the week.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
In The Guy and some guy, I don't know if
he tweeted or x the what it was on, but
somebody else's screen kept it and made it their own content,
you know, a classic, but a content you love that.
He said what it tells me I'm already paying too
much of a Netflix. If they can afford one hundred
and twenty four billion dollar purchase, that's how.

Speaker 4 (11:23):
They can do it.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
Though, Yeah, but then I suppose if you're someone like
MoU who has like every streaming service I'm trying to
do better, Yep, it would ideally, it would still be
cheaper than having both, you know, like we'd.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Imagine, you know, but I mean, if you.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Had HBO Max, yeah, and you had Netflix, he's still
you're going to be paying close to what like a
lot of months. I don't because we don't have HBO
Max in New Zealand. It's all just neon. But yeah,
well I've got the top six ways you're be able
to tell Netflix's purchased Warner brother properties, and number six,
they'll make Bugs Bunny do a dating show where everybody's
blindfolded and they don't know he's a rabbit.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah, oh my god.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
Yes, and they're like, oh my god, there's horrid.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
He has a beautiful home and they call it Lover's
blind Rabbit.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
Yeah. Love is a blind rabbit. Love is a blind rabbit. Yeah,

always chewing on something.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
Number five on the list of the top six ways
you'll be able to tell Netflix's purchased Warner Brothers properties

would be pretty good and it'll be controversial like Dave Chappelle. Yeah, yeah,
he's got some controversial thoughts now that you know, he's
got a bit more conservative in his older age.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
Great comedy comes from great trauma. I mean he's an author.
He's had a trauma, real loss of his parents early
in life.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
The dude had the most powerful like evil wizard in
history hunting him down through his high school years. Like

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Number three on the list of the top six ways
You're about to tell Netflix has purchased one of Brothers
Properties or The Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship of

Speaker 4 (14:49):
Someone needs to get down there and sort it out.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yeah, a little time.

Speaker 4 (14:53):
Yeah, I know, but we needed a proper superhero.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Do you know? It's just looking up what Netflix makes
and what Warner brother makes. There was a stat about
how may the most watched thing on Netflix at the
moment is Stranger Things season five, and it is eight
times more than the second closest, which is Kevin Hart
stand up comedy special Wow Wild eight. I can't believe

(15:18):
that the top ten all five seasons of Stranger Things

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Of course it is.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
It's just and Netflix is pretty loose with what they
consider a Christmas special, so it just might snow yeah, yeah,
you know, and then that's enough for it to be
a Christmas special.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
That is today's top six.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
Does that end podcast? Needwork plays dead Endsley?

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Well, the story that we reported on last week has
gone global. This I'm reading to you now from the
Associated Press news website. I think I saw it on
BBC Scene and Seeing, and it's gone all over the world.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
The man.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
We're always proud when New Zealand makes the news.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
Yes, but not like this. This is gross.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
So we spoke last week that the man went into
a jewelry store and swallowed a Faberge egg pendant. It
was inspired by the nineteen eighty three James One film Octopusy, an.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Iconic movie and even still funny.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
It's still funny.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Apparently I didn't know this, but in that James Bond
movie there was a dual smuggling operation which involved a
fake Faberge egg, right, so that's why this so that's
why this is. This has been made and had a
nineteen thousand dollars of thirty three thousand New Zealand dollar value. Yeah,

(17:02):
and we spoke about this man was arrested because he
was seen swallowing the egg. Well, the latest is that
New Zealand police have reported on Friday that they recovered
the pendant after six days of closely watching the man
accused of swallowing the jewelry six D. The New Zealand
Place official photo also shows the fab egg on a

(17:25):
handy towel.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
That is the worst detail entire fan.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
I know, Like look at the photo.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's and you can see the person wearing a latex
it's not even a latex glove. It's some kind of
heavy judy rubber glove. It's a real heavy it's a
crime it's a crime scene cleanup gloves. And you can
see their thumb next to the pendon and you can
see like, yeah, the paper towel.

Yeah, that's fresh from Do you reckon?

Speaker 4 (18:07):
They laxed them up, Yeah, to get it passing quicker.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
I reckon. They gave that a wash before they took
the photo though, surely for the rents.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
Wow, straight from on a paper tower, you could have
done a bit of photo.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
What did the details? Was this guy in like lock
up for six days and they.

Speaker 3 (18:23):

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Like, no one wants this?

Speaker 3 (18:32):
Do you think it's worth more now? Because it's got
a story, it's got to We can't have better on

Speaker 3 (18:55):
Well, it's Partridge jewelers in Auckland's just happened so maybe
if you are.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
I don't know if it's a one off piece or
they've made several.

Speaker 5 (19:03):
There's no, there's multiple of them because when I was
looking them up, you can't buy them, right, it's not
a one off, otherwise it would be worth much more.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
But I don't want to nicklas.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Yeah, but are they giving it a spray and wipe
and then it's back on the shelf.

Speaker 4 (19:25):
Actually, you know what, it is the year for it.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
It's really the year for an anus necklace.

Speaker 9 (19:30):

Well today, silly little polos. Do you eat raw mushrooms?
I've got a daughter. When you're cutting up mushrooms will
be just like yum yum, yuming them up.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
It's actually quite disgusting. I saw it eat a whole
butted mushroom the other day. No, that's that's weird.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
It was like, you know what, I used to do
this because Mum used to boil everything to a gray
mush when I was growing up. So I would like
to get a handful of the sliced carrots before she
started boiling them.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
That's acceptable to eat raw, But mushrooms. Cats are weird.
You don't They don't eat lollies and chocolate all the time.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
They get chocolate and it lasts for months.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
It's so weird. If there was any chocolate in my house,
I would eat it in the day.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
Do you know what is okay? Do you know what
is okay? Do you know what is discussing? Is I
don't clean the dirt off my mushrooms, and don't I.

Speaker 3 (20:39):
Just give it like I'll give it some Sometimes I'll
give them a rens or I use my thumb and
just kind of you know.

Speaker 4 (20:44):
My friend peels that.

Speaker 1 (20:45):

Speaker 5 (20:47):
My friend Ty will literally like rub them on the
back of a paper towel and like peel the skin off.

Speaker 4 (20:53):
It's all covered and dirt.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
And I was like, you get two mushrooms and under
a running tap, you just rub the mushrooms against each other.
Until I've never rubbed them against it. That's like someone's
room fusher, mushroom, mushroom frittage, mushroom frotage.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Yeah, mushroom.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Sometimes you can get three mushrooms in a hand and
just around David Bowie, I'll just get the big labyrinth style, yeah, big,
the big dirt off them, run them under the tamp
otherwise I don't care it to chick.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
Mate, but a dirt on me.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Do you eat raw mushrooms?

Speaker 3 (21:23):
Seventy eight percent of people said no, Not for me,
twenty two percent he'd years young. I have had them
in like maybe a you know, when you get like
some kind of peter or sandwich filling and or you
have a salad and maybe there's some raw mushrooms, but
there's always a sauce to like cover them in.

Speaker 5 (21:40):
If I get a pit a pet, I'll always get
the mushrooms on the grill.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
Oh yeah, okay, really mushrooms on grill, mate. So many
messages and mushroom dirt doesn't count.

Speaker 4 (21:51):
Yeah, exactly, it doesn't. It's not real.

that you're getting.

get in a container.

That's a lion's mad mushroom. I don't trust anything that
grows in the darkness. Yes, some people won't like us

Speaker 4 (24:44):
Around the corner from me. I love it.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
They've got a school around the road from you.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah they do.

Speaker 5 (24:49):
There's a school in the center where they all live
and grow vegetables and then they throw parties.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
We're saying, they like that's some sort of outcast of society.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
I don't wish to have that as the sort of
association with the gu very peaceful people.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
Good morning to our hearty Christian love orange.

gurgling whether.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
Or not Dostians have chickens for decorations. No, hardy Christian
devotees iscam do not eat eggs with me. Fish's part
of their strict lacto vegetarian diet, believing eggs and animal
products unfit for spiritual offering and consumption.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
It's not for me, but each to their own, you know,
each to exactly.

based around an imaginary man in the I don't have one.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
This week's Fact of the Day theme is about famous
Christmas songs and a little peek behind the curtain.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
Okay, the Thames crank and Christmas is getting close? Do
you do what I did? Do a lipa? Do you
know what I did yesterday? I made a Christmas wreath
for my front door?

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Or did you make it out of Hayley?

Speaker 5 (26:43):
Okay, thank you for asking, Darling. Actually, because what I
did was they got a bass reef of sort of
a leafy reef from a spotlight. Oh and then I
bought fake pionies, just white ones, and then some red
berry sticks and I poked them all in. And then
I got a big red ribbon and I've hung it
as right flights around it with a battery pack cable

(27:05):
tied to the back and it sparkles.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
One thing is by one, I reckon.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
I spent twice as much as if I had have
just brought one.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
Ye, So you're telling me how homemade wreath texts the
same boxes as the homemade pizza.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
Yeah, it's exactly it.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
Once I had all the ingredients, I'd spent an exhorbitant amount,
I could have got a nice boogie one from.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
A home list.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Yeah you go, okay, Yeah, good to know.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
So a number of websites have put together the twenty
twenty five list of most mispronounced words. Most of these
are I think are coming from the USA, but okay,
I'm gonna ever go it's saying most of them Zora
and Mamdani is was the top of the list. So
he is the new mayor of New York, mad And

(27:49):
it's Mam Danny, Mam Danni, not man Darmi, not man Darmi.
Like how it's Luxton's Christian, Luxton's Christophers and John keys
and keys and just into Adam. Yeah, people really struggle
with that African born Muslim in Southeast Asian name, and

(28:09):
they dare not bother to learn it.

Speaker 10 (28:11):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (28:11):
And then the second most common one, which was spoken
about so often because of the heists, was Louver. So
how because I had said you say the louver, right, yeah,
but you the which is the French living a little
bit louver?

Speaker 4 (28:27):

to running off with some fringe man, Yes you do.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
Not, bloody moment, the idea having been in France, i'd
probably yeah, what a great you're just going to forgive
and forget about the rainbow warrior.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
Yes, when this French person has brown skin and light eyes,
you so well. Anyway, we didn't have a great rapport.
But it doesn't mean here bright eyes.

Speaker 5 (29:18):
Um, I set a mean a fin which is ingredient
in cold and flu medication, exactly.

Speaker 4 (29:26):
Donald Trump consistently had no idea how to say.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
Of mongarro, which is weight loss.

Speaker 1 (29:40):

Speaker 3 (30:03):
Moan jar jar jar Okay, I just want to mention
another European country to see if hay, you slept with
someone from it, because France and Italy and she's had
one from Estonia.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
I'll tell you what team up with fletch here.

Speaker 3 (30:20):
Besides, you know that you two have knocked off most
of the bloody eun get.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
One of those scratched country maps and it's not a trap.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
Yeah, bonus.

Speaker 5 (30:33):
One on the list for mispronunciations was Denzel Washington because
this year revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Show his real names.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
It's supposed to be Denzels didn't who who was.

Speaker 5 (30:50):
Changed it to Denzel because she was like, everyone's saying Denzel,
but it's Denzel.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
But you can't go through your whole Hollywood career calling
yourself that and then say you slight say when you
know you don't only doing crap movies. Now they're like, oh,
you've been saying a name wrong. It's like why, like
why bother dude?

Speaker 5 (31:09):
Oh yeah, totally that's actually on you. Yeah, there is
another celebrity who's always like that, that's.

Speaker 12 (31:14):
It's not that.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Any Hathaway again, same thing.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
Put an eye in there, mate, start we start at.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
The start of your career, any Hathaway, and then we'll
be fine with it. Yeah, changed later on?

Speaker 4 (31:28):
Yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:29):
I'm looking up other mispronounced celebrity and celebrity names now,
and they're pretty obvious. I mean, gal Gado, I think
a lot of people will be hitting that tea a
bit hard on.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Do you remember when she sang in the Pandemic?

Speaker 4 (31:41):
Fortunately, imagine there's no heav. I love the Instagram videos
of people mocking her act.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Either ones are pretending to be her, auditioning for roles
and stuff.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
Yeah we've got to go now, hello No, And then.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Those legs and that beautiful face have afforded her many years,
and your average minger would.

Speaker 4 (32:07):
Not be affording.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
Podcast Needwork play z, ms flesh Worn and Hailey gen Z.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
Young workers are complaining about negative stereotyping from older colleagues
just for being gen Z.

Speaker 5 (32:23):
Do you know what's funny is when you see gen
Z in the workplace are complaining I was about to
be like what now, but and that thus stereotyping the
gen Z.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Now, I do our fellow gen Z producers. Do you
feel that this is a fellow You're not a gen Z. Sorry,
sorry you said fellow fell. I didn't need to say fellow.
Our gen Z producers.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
Yes, yeah, you guys always rag on us, but then
you always go, oh, not our gen.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Z, you know, but we've got good gen Zs the
top tier.

Speaker 6 (32:49):
I think it's because we've got our own resident gen
Z and his names of worn Smith.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
Yes, yeah, I walked so you guys could run, because
I think the rhetoric is that gen Zs are hard
work adverse, and that is not our gen Zs. They're
very hard workers.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
So if we delve more into the study, which I
think is out of the UK, it says that nearly
half of young office workers that are gen Z's reported
negative stereotyping. Forty four percent said that experienced criticism due
to the stereotypes, and also a lot of them have
been reduced to tears over stress, pressure and lack of praise.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
Crazy man, yeah, pressure.

Speaker 13 (33:35):
I think we're pretty lucky, like you guys need us
to help you stay young and fresh. Iness relevant, But
I can see how like in an office place, like
in an normal work environment, you would potentially have like
a bias. Like someone might be like, oh, these young
people that don't want to work, Maybe we just have
good boundaries.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Boundaries, good balance.

Speaker 13 (33:56):
Not shadding an eye, but.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
You know, a rible examples, terrible examples of a typical
gen Z. But that that's all it is. It's previous generations.
Like how like, oh, oh, probably no surprise.

Speaker 3 (34:09):
I've had my mental ups and downs this year, and
there was one week where I needed to take time off.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
My Mom's like, I think it would be good for
you to go to work.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Keep your mind off it, you know, keep your mind
And I was just like mum, and she's like, you know,
you've got to keep busy.

Speaker 6 (34:23):
I know a lot of a lot of my friends
are will job hop between opposing companies. They just every
two years or so moved to the opposition to get
a pay ride. And older people find that really dial Yeah, but.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
They they didn't want to pay them more. Exactly.

Speaker 4 (34:41):
Yeah, I think we're I think there is that thing
of you know, some of it we might but some
of it we're just jealous that you that we have
this sort of guilt in the workplace.

Speaker 13 (34:51):
Maybe Shannon and I should put in some more boundaries.
Next year, maybe we'll be better, I reckon.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
I think next you're going to put in more boundaries.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Cut I put in boundaries and Fletch and Hailey pick
up a bit of the slack. What about you mine?

Speaker 11 (35:08):
Busy?

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (35:10):
Crazy crazy?

Speaker 3 (35:12):
He's broadcasting from home, guys.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
This pool isn't going to clean itself.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
The Z podcast network.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
What's going on?

Speaker 4 (35:24):
Ms?

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Fletch, Vaughn and Haley.

Speaker 5 (35:27):
Playing over in Australia over the weekend. Lots of social
media footage of it. The concert looked amazing.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
How many shows was Lady Gagar doing in Australia?

Speaker 7 (35:38):
I do know?

Speaker 4 (35:39):
Produce a car? When are you aware of that fact?

Speaker 13 (35:42):
Yeah? She did too in Melbourne? So I went on
Friday night.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
You went to what's it called Marvel Marvel Stadium, sixty
thousand I think it.

Speaker 13 (35:51):
Was about sixty thousand.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
I saw before one hundred and twenty thousand in two days.

Speaker 13 (35:56):
And then she's still got Brisbane and Sydney and again
no New Zealand and did you get the vibe?

Speaker 3 (36:04):
A lot of Kiwis were there. I mean a lot
live in Melbourne anyway, But do you think a lot
of people.

Speaker 13 (36:08):
Like you traveled yeah, there were some, but and like
a few on the flight home that had definitely been
but not as many as like Taylor Swift or anything
like that. It wasn't I don't think they put any
extra flights on.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Can we ask?

Speaker 5 (36:21):
Speaking of Taylor Swift, parallels on my socials over the
weekend were like fashion people doing little you know, vox
pops outside with some of the most incredible outfits I've
ever seen, like full Lady Gaga, Like how I don't
know how they even sat in their seat.

Speaker 13 (36:36):
No, I think a lot of them were on the
floor in fairness, because I guess if you're that big
of a fan you want to be as close then.

Speaker 5 (36:42):
You're in these wide There was this one guy who
had this like huge it was like a meter wide
red leatherette thing.

Speaker 10 (36:49):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
Yeah, if he was in front of you, you'd be like, oh,
you're a screen.

Speaker 13 (36:53):
There was one girl that I kept seeing and she
had this massive like a dress with a massive train
and it was all lit up in a rainbow like
obviously for the like a queer community, and it was
huge and I saw her the entire show.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
Yeah, but and then they won't let you take your
umbrella and will they.

Speaker 13 (37:12):
The roof was a cross guys, don't even worry about it.
Australia has roofs on.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
No wonder, we're all moving there. They've got roofs on
stadiums stadium.

Speaker 4 (37:20):
It's very impressive.

Speaker 13 (37:21):
I didn't feel hot once. But it is weird that
it's sponsored by Marvel. Isn't it like there's marble?

Speaker 3 (37:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (37:26):
Yeah, that's what I am always confused about. But the
one thing that I will say, I loved the concept.
The staging was incredible. Her costumes were like next level.
If you've seen her coach halliere, it was very similar
to that. At one point she does come out in
like a big tub of tub, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Square of.

Speaker 5 (37:45):
Sand vanilla just to keep it plane and the sand
sand dirt stuff, and her.

Speaker 13 (37:53):
And all her dances are like buried in it. And
I'm like, that must be we're all relate.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Real, you know, out of shape and ugly. Eh No,
there's not. I was joking. They're all insanely ripped and hot.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Like there's not a single minga amongst.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
No, what would I google to see fletch.

Speaker 8 (38:13):
This one.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
But I think it's important to have a you know,
a visual what's spoken about.

Speaker 13 (38:20):
Okay, But the one thing that was driving me insane
is obviously it's very much a produced stage show. She
didn't do a whole lot of crowd interaction until she
got to a bit of an acoustic set where fun fact,
she actually performed an unreleased song from like years ago
called Brooklyn Knights, which the only other time she's performed

(38:40):
that song was eleven years ago in Melbourne.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Oh wow, she's only the.

Speaker 4 (38:49):
Sort of like that.

Speaker 13 (38:50):
It's a beautiful song. It's not on streaming. It's very
hard to find that she put it up years ago
for three days and she she.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Did shell A La La, who did the male part
of She.

Speaker 13 (39:03):
Also did Die with a Smile without Bruno Mars and
it was better in my opinion.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Controversial, controversial.

Speaker 13 (39:10):
We know he just did that to pay back his fines.

Speaker 4 (39:13):
But the one thing.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Throughout a bit of what finds the Bruno maas.

Speaker 13 (39:18):
He owed a bunch of money to a like a
casino thing. It's a whole thing.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
My goodness, he's still swarming with the fishes.

Speaker 10 (39:28):
But so so.

Speaker 13 (39:29):
The one time that she did kind of like ad
lib was put your bleeping hands up, put your bleep
and paws up. Do you know how many times she
said that? I want to say hundreds. Someone on Night
Too counted ninety seven times put your hands up.

Speaker 5 (39:47):
Well maybe if you guys had him put your beleef
and hands up should have stopped us.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
The podcast network lay Z ms flesh Worn and Haley, Well.

Speaker 5 (41:43):
If you were planning on attending my system of a
downcover bands concert this weekend in Auckland.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
Which I'm sure many people were like, Howard, ticket sales
actually quite.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
Low, I'll say, yeah, you're actually quite low.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Niche thing.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
It's just a busy time of the year, Hayley. I
mean people would love to come and see a system
of the down lounge genre covers bands, So it's the
same reason Lady Gaga didn't come to New Zealand just
people are so busy, right, tickets, She wouldn't have sold tickets.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Actually this made me feel.

Speaker 4 (42:18):
Better because unfortunately, and this will all if you have
bought tickets, you'll be people will be in touch today
to refund you.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
Nobody bought tickets.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
There were a few. There were quite a few.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
There were quite a dozen. No, like forty okay, yeah, low.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
Numbers for you know.

Speaker 5 (42:35):
Yeah, I did like eighteen hundred and one night. Yeah,
so I think people were sleeping on this one. Anyway,
It's not you, it's not you.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
What is the problem.

Speaker 4 (42:45):
Yeah, you're right, it's got to be Jack and Nico,
my bandmates.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
This is this is what I always think, if you're
looking to offload the problem, somebody else know it is me.

Speaker 4 (42:53):
I am the problem.

Speaker 5 (42:54):
We have to cancel the gig. The venue is going
to be in touch and we'll get it all sorted.
Just a series of unfortunate events culminating and me not
being able to leave Queenstown yesterday.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
I know a flight, a lot of flights canceled yesterday
and delayed.

Speaker 5 (43:10):
Yeah, it was absolutely insane. And then filming schedule stuff.
But I've never done this in my life, and I
hate it canceling things last minute.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
So you're canceling the show. You're canceling the show.

Speaker 5 (43:21):
Yeah, I've got this filming schedule that's come out and
I can't do it, and I've I've got to like
come up with the you know, because if you've ever
had a canceled girg, I have, and it's like no, no, no, no,
like when you've been seeing an artist or something.

Speaker 3 (43:34):
Oh yeah, I mean it happens all the time. And
then I guess they just reach out and SATs.

Speaker 4 (43:38):
Yeah, like Jason Derula didn't want to come or something
like that. I don't want to come to news you
learned anymore.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
I had to cancel some gigs when I used to
be in my Dane Rumble covers band.

Speaker 4 (43:48):
Dean Rumble.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
That was Dean Rumble. That was what my performing name
was because I.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Was can we get a little sampled Dean Rumble. No.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
Legally no, I simply won't go into a I did
Dane Rumble Covers, and then with the first crew, I
did the Fast Crew covers right, and then there was
there was a bit of legal back and forth, and
now I'm not allowed to and of course I had
to cancel.

Speaker 1 (44:12):
I like, I had to cancel on a lot of people. Heartbreaking.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
I love your cover I have.

Speaker 14 (44:18):
And yeah, and I had the past tense that was
what I Yeah. Yeah, anyway, this I get, I get, Yeah,
and I got and I got it. No, you can't
say I got actually yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
I just got that. That was the legal issue.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
Anyway, I've had to make a last minute cancelation, something
that I've never done before. I'm a follow througher. No
matter what, how or high water, I'll do it. But
it's it's it's devastating. But I want to know from
our listeners. What did you have to cancel last minute?
Maybe it was a party, maybe like a wedding.

Speaker 1 (44:51):
A wedding because you found out like your new husband
was cheating on you.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
Yeah, you had something grand play, Yeah, I mean and
please le What.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
About if you had to cancel because of like a disaster,
oh yeah, or you like I don't know, broke yourself.

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Well yeah, what if you were like in those years,
I remember so many people like were hosting Christmas. All
the food is there and they wake up on Christmas
Day and head COVID like Christmas is canceled.

Speaker 4 (45:19):
You can't touch the food, so I guess there's hams
are mine?

Speaker 3 (45:22):

Speaker 10 (45:34):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (45:36):
Cancel flights to Canada with the boyfriend who was all
long term boyfriend that was already over there and ended
up ended up breaking up with them.

Speaker 4 (45:42):
Oh no, wait, so why did you cancel the flights
in the first place?

Speaker 7 (45:46):
I had an injury, so the long term flight wasn't
going to work. And then hindsights great and realized that
now this isn't it.

Speaker 4 (45:54):
I don't actually want to go.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
I realized that this isn't the corner on topic why
you broke up with the why though, I must just
simply why. We just grew up.

Speaker 8 (46:04):
Heart.

Speaker 3 (46:05):
Yeah. So it's kind of like kind of faith that
you broke your leg and it happened that way exactly.

Speaker 4 (46:12):
The universe broke you.

Speaker 3 (46:13):
The universe broke your leg on purpose. I would have
asked the universe for a slightly less painful sign. You're
like a twisted wrist. I would have asked the universe
for a lotto win.

Speaker 1 (46:24):
I know actually did.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
Yeah, yeah, we're asking if we're asking the universe question Anonymous.
Thank you some messages that my last minute cancelation was
for my own fourth birthday. The morning of my birthday,
I woke up with chicken pox, so the party had
to be canceled. Also, however, my present was strawberry jam
which I really enjoyed, and we just delayed the party
till I was better. Now, I that's good that a

(46:49):
four year old get to jar a strawberry jams and
are happy with that. Also, I love that you that
this happened when you were four and you've still got
an issue with it. We're still hurt by the cancelation
of your fourth birthday.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
Yeah, yeah, I are a five year old with a
phone plane.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 15 (47:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (47:03):
I had to cancel my wedding last minute due to
COVID restrictions in March twenty twenty, living in Melbourne at
the time and couldn't come back to New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
So I was thinking the other day, how crazy is it.
It's going to be like five years next year and
March dude, it's like five years. It's five years now
since it first started popping up. Because start popping up,
you start of December.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
It's in same.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
Yeah, it is what time flies in your pandemics. Time
flies when your pandemic the world.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
Time flies when you're having fun and also when you're
not having fun. Had to cancel my husband's thirtieth I
was to be held at our place with about sixty
or seventy people. Yeah, had all the food sorted. I
had gastro the night before. I came right, so pushed through.
Husband started with the gastro two hours before. People were
meant to all right. I feel like if that was
me and I had a house, I'd just be like,

(47:49):
you guys, knock yourself out.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
I'll be in the bedroom.

Speaker 4 (47:52):
Yeah, I'll be my bathroom, beroom.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
You've done all the work, you've got all the food,
don't go to waste. Well, that's what they said. They
were stuck with all of the food that ordered that
they didn't actually feel like eating due to the gastro. Also,
I don't know if i'd want food from someone that
has gastro.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
I would not.

Speaker 4 (48:06):
Knowingly enter a gastro house. No, jeep. Also, it's six
years since COVID.

Speaker 3 (48:13):
Yeah, I did bad mass, which is not surprising considering
how well I did it or not well I did
at high school. And I mean, this is this is
primary school level maths. Real really again, I went to
a dissile one primary school.

Speaker 4 (48:26):
And it shows we're asking right now, what was the
last minute cancelation?

Speaker 5 (48:31):
Been an event, a flight, a wedding. I've had to
cancel something, and plenty of you have as well.

Speaker 3 (48:38):
Some messages, and we're to cancel our wedding. We're getting
married in sent the invites out, then you booked guests,
had booked all their flights. Then we found out we
were pregnant and due on the on the on the
window counts in the weddings, all the guests win. Anyway,
bonus Bama. It was my husband to be's fortieth on
our wedding day, so no wedding and no one to
celebrate his fortieth. Yeah, and do you remember when when

(49:00):
we hired scooters on RaRo and took a little detour
to the hospital. I wouldn't want to have a baby
there because I was thinking, I was thinking maybe you
could just have it there, you know, because you're there.
You've paid for everything. But yeah, it kind of looked
like a cinder block tikuwity motel.

Speaker 4 (49:15):
Yeah, it's not a kid it was.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
And the chickens were just going in and out. Yeah,
and I think some of the chickens were doctors.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
They were the doctors. They picked you.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
They do, get away, they do, they clean out the
wounds and stuff.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
I had to cancel being made of honor at my
best friend of twenty nine years wedding last minute.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
I got a job in New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (49:35):
I was living in the UK, so it was immigrating
two weeks before the wedding. I'm sorry, you can push
that job out, can you like for your Beasti's wedding.

Speaker 5 (49:43):
I don't know, but maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was
just a particular job. It was like you gotta Yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:48):
Christmas was canceled last year due to small humans having
gastro causing lots of cancers. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
Oh no.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
I had to cancel my twenty first birthday because I
got seen to jail two weeks before my party.

Speaker 4 (50:02):
Why, okay, why sorry?

Speaker 3 (50:04):
Follow?

Speaker 1 (50:04):
I follow? Oh for context?

Speaker 3 (50:07):
I had lots of unpaid parking fines and didn't want
to do the community service. I got seen away for
two weeks to clear fines and get out the day
before my birthday.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Oh my god, would that be a great salt pole?

Speaker 4 (50:16):
Sorry, they're gonna.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
Send you to prison for two weeks for honor dragon
fines could be speeding in different yes, but would you
go to prison for a week so you didn't have
to pay like one hundred or two hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 8 (50:30):
A week?

Speaker 1 (50:31):
Yes, two hundred thousand.

Speaker 4 (50:32):
Years, but then it stays in your recli in jail time.

Speaker 1 (50:35):
But then you could say, like you're a badass.

Speaker 4 (50:39):
Yeah, sorry, I'm just remembering what it was like in prison. Yeah,
that's quite cool.

Speaker 1 (50:45):
Yeah, I don't think it would be cool, Hayley.

Speaker 4 (50:47):
I don't think it would be cool.

Speaker 3 (50:48):
But like that's an interesting question, right, Yeah, because like
this person obviously had so many fines.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
They were like, away you go, and then the fines
are gone. You've done a week or two in prison.

Speaker 4 (50:58):
Then you come out.

Speaker 3 (50:59):
You're like, so let's go to barley with all that
head and money you had that you weren't paying your
fines with.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
I've been sitting on this that just.

Speaker 3 (51:08):
Let me go to prison for a lineown you just
a deep sleep, just just it's just just just two weeks.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
In fact, I'll pay them as long as the cell
doors stay shuted.

Speaker 3 (51:18):
I know. I said, this should be a company where
you can just go in for a week and you
just get like a nice little deep coma.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Two weeks coma.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
So there's so many empty stools on Queen Street. I
want to open up a comas r us and you
just go on and go this.

Speaker 5 (51:36):
Sleep for two weeks, you make give you the rundown
of what's happened in the news, and I'm going to.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Go man do z M podcast Needwork play z MS
flesh one and Haley.

Speaker 3 (51:48):
Well, I had a bit of a Pioneers weekend. Do
you remember pioneered at school where you just you turn
cream into butter and you'd be like, yeah, they didn't
have electricity. No, either had candles or lamps and you'd
be like cool. Yeah, Well that was my weekend. I
had a power cut on Saturday, haven't no finger. It

(52:08):
was around six o'clock planned or with unplanned. So there
had been a couple of power cuts and the last
time this happened was the other weekend, and I had
a friend house sitting a couple of weekends ago, and
then he just ended up having to go stay somewhere
else because there was no power for like the whole
weekend and.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
It caused that one did they get to the bottom
of the back, So they did.

Speaker 3 (52:31):
They dug a massive hole in the street, two holes,
and apparently like patched up a cable.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Anyway, So I got home and there was power and
on front.

Speaker 3 (52:39):
But then Saturday night again power goes out and I'm
like uh oh, and then I'm like I just deal
with that. I'm like, you know, I'll go to bed early,
it doesn't matter, and wake up in the morning still
no power, and I'm like, I did just buy all
those mixed Vigi's again.

Speaker 1 (52:54):
Oh no, frozen soggy, frozen biage like the other week.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
And the worst thing is you've been a lictric oven
literally stoves tops. You can't even cook the vegetable.

Speaker 3 (53:05):
So I was like, well, I guess I'm going out
for breakfast. So went to our favorite cafe and I
was like, this is great, you know, living like a
pioneer going out for eggs on toast, and like.

Speaker 4 (53:15):
A pioneer popping a daily bread.

Speaker 3 (53:19):
Famously, that's what I was like when you would arrive
at a New Land. Ye, get off the if you
could have been bothered cooking. You just go down to
daily bread exactly for a Ruba for eggs and a
toasted sandwich, and same at lunch. You know that feeling
that you've just gone off the shep. In the New Country,
it's the eighteen hundreds. Get some sushi for lunch.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (53:39):
I want to know though, how because we've been in
your apartment when oh my god, recorded stuff in there,
so we've had to turn the fans off all summer.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
All of our podcast specials that we did the other
week for Christmas all recorded in there.

Speaker 4 (53:52):
Yeah, what it's like.

Speaker 5 (53:53):
Yesterday was in Auckland one of the warmest days I've
had year, Right, I was insane.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
One of the hottest year, I'd say, even the last summer. Yeah,
it was insane because the ceiling fans weren't working. So
I was getting like, I was getting quite impatient because.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
You can't Yeah, the patron of waiting patiently patient.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
Yeah, because the people that are in charge in Auckland
of the cables are victnor you know, they used top
used to sponsor the arena do you remember that? No,
I think you've got the Victor. They the cables. He's
the bad guy on the strange of things. They do
the cable and they're pretty good at updating the website.

(54:36):
They're like, you know, here's the fault, will update you.
But just said one o'clock and it was two. So
I rang them up and you can imagine my delight.
And I'm always so, I always am conscious that it's
just someone in the cool center. They're not fixing the power,
they're not digging up the hole, or they're not coming
to see the fuse box or whatever.

Speaker 4 (54:55):
They have an example of your tone. Hello Victor Arena.

Speaker 1 (54:59):
How can I he that was? That was the place
with the music? No Victor. Oh yeah, anyway, long story.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
SA varies your concert.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
I was very friendly until I gave him my address
and the guy said, we don't have any reports of
any power outages, and I like, can I show you,
my dude, we have like elderly people that need the
lifts and they haven't been working for twenty four hours nearly.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Yeah, but it got on at midnight last night, and.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
Didn't you say that you woke up cold because your
fans kicked down.

Speaker 3 (55:29):
I was like, worms were cold, and then I realized
my fan was on. But they had to dig into
the hole down the road to like I don't know,
they put some tape around the power lines. I don't
know how it works anyway, but it was it was nice,
you know, live like a pioneer. I had to go
to the food court for dinner ah as well, So yeah,
you know what blows my mind about that? People will

(55:49):
It's the same on like local Facebook pages. People will
bitch about a pothole, but no one calls the counsel
to say that got hole.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
I called them as soon as soon as the power
went out, I called them.

Speaker 3 (56:00):
I was like, and that's yeah, you've got to tell
these otherwise everyone assumes if someone assumes someone else have
done it, yeah, yeah, yeah, And that's why when it
hadn't been fixed, I was like, I killed them again.

Speaker 4 (56:10):
You've done a lot done. You're the guy and it's
doing it.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
But I do have because it was nearly thirty hours
of no power when the power happened last time, I
had to replace all the frozen mix, vig Chinese watties,
the stir fry one yep, yeah, that's good. You're trying
to get some freebies. You're trying to what are you

Speaker 5 (59:30):
It's so disappointing in a world that we're actually interior
design in particular is leaning more towards spot, bright and
bold colors. They're like, this is millennial gray on acid.
It's it's even worse than that. And they keep saying
it's like you need what did.

Speaker 4 (59:45):
They say it was? They spun it some way like
this color allows other colors to shine, and you're like yeah,
because it's literally an undercoat.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
Like it is just do you have any white in
your house? The ceilings, the.

Speaker 5 (59:59):
Laundry wall are white, but the cabinet trees green. Right,
the ceilings are white. Yeah, okay, and that's her the doors.

Speaker 3 (01:00:05):
This is I'm looking through the winners of the technically,
is that's a winner because there was no competition, the
name it they announce it. Yeah, I'm just looking through.
And they've been vibrant lately. They've been vibrant. Like there
was a gray in twenty twenty one, but it was
a joint winner, so there was a gray but also
a yellow called illuminating, so they were joint winners. And

(01:00:26):
the other years where there has been like a dull winner,
there's always been like a joint winner.

Speaker 4 (01:00:30):
Black or something else.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
No, this is just white white for years. You're not
going to get everything you want all the time. It's
like when the six people, sixiest man comes out and
it's not a brown skin light eyes, you know, like
it's just.

Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
Yeah, you know, you can't please everyone. But I would
say most of the Internet things that's crap. They see
the color of the year being colorless as a recession indicator.

Speaker 4 (01:00:52):
We're just yeah, it's the easiest color to print.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
Were there other colors that were in the running that
have missed out that will be you know, I don't know,
not because they think announce it.

Speaker 5 (01:01:01):
Yeah, they sort of just work on it during the year,
looking at all sorts of like trend indicators and stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:01:05):
And apparently next year is gonna be the year of white.

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
Not in my house, no plays it ends flesh porn
and Haley.

Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
Fat of the day, day day day day.

Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:01:20):
Do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do doo.

Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
All this week as we enter like two four weeks
before Christmas, uh we the last two weeks of the show,
we're going to do different Christmas themes and this year
this week it's Christmas songs. Unknown facts about Christmas songs
I entered Dastmas songs. Do you like this one from
nineteen fifty three, the original release of Santa Baby?

Speaker 1 (01:01:51):
Now when you said bring up Santa Baby.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
There's a Santa Baby from Michael Bubble, Gwen, Stephanie Yep,
Ariana grand E, Alicia keys Is, Taylor Swift's got one,
She's got one.

Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
Do you want me to bring up the original on YouTube?

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
Oh wait, we've got a puff daddy one? Oh wow?

Speaker 4 (01:02:13):
Does a G?

Speaker 1 (01:02:13):
We know we are kindly even Noogu's.

Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Got one's nineteen fifty three version.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
But who else has covered this? Because Madonna? I know
Madonna did.

Speaker 3 (01:02:23):
Those are kind of the names I recognize and that
we have loaded and in ours. If you want O
G okay, well let's go O G G.

Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
And then maybe I can find that. We'll go to
some other g from.

Speaker 4 (01:02:37):
The fifties on. You're going to say something racist. The
problem out of this Santa Baby just slipper sable under
the tree. For me, it's the horniest of all the
Christmas carols.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
It's the horn and that is why it saw a
radio band. What chin it was?

Speaker 3 (01:02:57):
It was considered far to six, glamorous, flirtatious, and breathing.
I couldn't imagine driving on the Southern Motorway being aroused
to that, listening to that right now?

Speaker 1 (01:03:10):
Likely, She asked three she asked three.

Speaker 3 (01:03:13):
Yacht's at one stage, and people said it was basically flirting.
It was openly flirting with Santa in the hope of
acquiring material goods. Right while the US, the Southern US
Bible Belt radio stations across Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi refused
to play it, claiming too suggestive and appropriate and not

(01:03:34):
keeping with the Christian holiday spirit.

Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
This is Taylor swift.

Speaker 4 (01:03:40):
Way less breathy. She's far more on voice sat.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
I think Ariana Grande is going to give you a
breath youse.

Speaker 3 (01:03:51):
Okay, well, let's go arian and Grande and see what
she's doing here.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
Hailey did not like that. I reckon, I reckon.

Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
Alicia Keys is going to save this. I'm just going
to fast forward to the Santa Baby bit.

Speaker 4 (01:04:22):
Hello Santa, is this really you?

Speaker 1 (01:04:26):
No, it's not come on fast forward.

Speaker 12 (01:04:28):
Well, I know that you're not supposed to do this,
but I do have a little list and I've been
such a good girl.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
A good girl.

Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
Well Santa Baby, Yeah that I knew, should can't I
knew should do Well?

Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
That's breath Yeah, that's breathing and sexy.

Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
Ah so Catholic lead radio stations banned as well for
the flirtatious tone, the implication of having a romantic relationship
with Santa, and greed and seduction for gifts. One station
manager calling it a gold digger song wrapped in tinsel.

Speaker 4 (01:05:03):
Oh wow, who's this?

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
I don't know?

Speaker 4 (01:05:11):
Sliper under the Queen Tree?

Speaker 3 (01:05:17):
Surely? Oh now we would just find guess who's doing
the cover.

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
I mean, I gave you a big clue before I
said all of them.

Speaker 10 (01:05:29):
Er baby, Sable under the Tree.

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
And get on UBERA.

Speaker 4 (01:05:37):
There, awful good girl said to baby, I'm really disturbed.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
And see the pussy Cat dolls have got a hell
of a version. What it's not in my system? Bring
it up, Bring it up, you bring it up.

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
I'll tell you some more of the problems people had
with the Earth Kit's performance was far too sultry for
a Christmas song. This may have been the original sexy
Christmas slipper sole under the Tree. I don't know what
a sable is, like a tiger. I think, No, it's
a Oh it's a Oh.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
My god, it's fur. It's fur. It's fur. Or canceled.
You can cancel Earth Act. You're canceledby.

Hurry down the gym.

Speaker 1 (01:06:38):
Okay, great, that was what Max? What a Max?

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
I liked that, But anyway, it came back and resurfaced
in the in the early sixties. They said it wasn't
as controversial free love in the sixties. Of course, the
seventies it was labeled as campy not sexy. Can the
Madonna did a cover in nineteen eighty seven that made
it a mainstream hit again.

Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
I didn't play the Madonna one.

Speaker 5 (01:07:00):
It's in the someone message and how don't forget Michael Boublay.

Speaker 4 (01:07:03):
He did Santa Buddy to show how incredibly straight he is.

Speaker 1 (01:07:08):
Okay, this is the Madonna one, Santa.

Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
Baby Sleep the stable undred Victree.

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):

Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
Sounds like that feels like a nineteen fifties Bugs Bunny version, a.

Speaker 1 (01:07:20):
Like the sixty Rabbit. The Budge is trying to sleep.
What he's gonna say?

Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
Hit us with Michael Boublay.

Speaker 3 (01:07:26):
Santa Buddy finished with the Michael Somebody is somebody is
worried they'll lose again, and then in the segment, I
promise you you won't lose.

Speaker 1 (01:07:33):
We actually ruined that for a lot of people last week,
didn't we. Yeah, let's not do that again.

Speaker 4 (01:07:38):
Yeah, God has gone slow sand Oh Michael, the timp on.

Dad would pop a night in the drive for a
few minutes and.

Speaker 1 (01:16:00):
Then and then she'd get out and yell at him
for using the dryer. When you use the dryer, did
you put the fan on?

Speaker 4 (01:16:07):
It's all whitt in there. And if she has a moisturizer,
bloody steatic would be.

Speaker 3 (01:16:12):
Yeah, Sam's partner tolerates their existence, and that's pretty pretty cares.

Speaker 1 (01:16:17):
It's important to find a partner that will tolerate your existence.

Speaker 4 (01:16:20):
It's kind of the most important.

Speaker 1 (01:16:21):
But Mike said, the nicest thing she ever did for
me was leave me. What a great feeling that was.

Speaker 4 (01:16:26):
Okay, some bitterness coming through, It's nice. It's good.

Speaker 3 (01:16:29):
My partner would tell the doctor before surgeries all the
things they needed to know about my medical PTSD. Then
he looked after me amazingly after my surgeries. He's always
doing little things for me that I don't think he
even realizes he's doing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:39):
That mean the world to me. That's not that's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:16:43):

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
