Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the Zitim podcast Network.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
Thanks to animates making happy happened for.

Speaker 4 (00:08):
Pits, Fletch Voorn and Hailey Happy. First a winter, everybody,
that's I think we just skipped autumn and we just
started straight at winter.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
I knew people yesterday with fires on and in the
South Island. That is insanity.

Speaker 4 (00:27):
There is a place right now in New Zealand that
is minus two point one degrees.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
It is the third of March. What I'm cold. I've
forgotten how to do cold.

Speaker 4 (00:39):
Well, bring a jumper Auckland right now nine point three
but feels like seven. Yeah, Christy's feeling like five at
the moment with eight degrees.

Speaker 5 (00:48):
That friend and Wellington had the weather report that it
was eleven but felt like negative one.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Currently currently eight point two, but it feels like four. It's
it feels like it's the feels like it gets you. Yeah,
it feels like it gets jumper happy.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
First had winter. That's so great because I was still
waiting for the first day of someone to arrive. Oh well, also,
very soon, can we talk about Jim Carrey and this
whole situation face situations and there's conspiracies and now someone's
come up being like, yeah, the whole thing's just bizarre

(01:26):
and if you haven't if you haven't seen it, I'll
give you all the details six as well.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
Yeah, there's been a real reckoning in the fact that
the first three seconds of any TikTok a it has
to pretty much sell you the product because that's all
the people are getting before they flick it, yeah through
to the next one.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
That's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:40):
When you' flicking through you if it doesn't get your attention,
you're onto the next thing.

Speaker 6 (01:44):
Right.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
So I've written some three second ads for some pretty
big companies and it's my pleasure to do so.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
It's a marketing genius, it really is. It really is.

Speaker 5 (01:53):
Nixt on the show, Burger King in the US are
trialing out something oh yeah, pineapple, no something something to
do with their workers, nothing to do with the Burgers, the.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Fletchborn and Haley Big Pod.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
Well, Burger King is testing. This is only in the
United States of America. Yeah, the company restaurant brands. They
own Burger King, Popeyes and other brands. They're currently testing
and open AI. Man, you know what, I still haven't
had it. It has not let me down.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
It is it just chicken, you know when we go
and see her massive duck up at Albany. Yeah, we
could go to Popeyes there and then roundabout and you
look for one of those one of those slutty hot
cross bonder and.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Then go back to Albany.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
More.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
I had to clear.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
It's right, we can do a little bit of clear.
But yeah, you are spitting way too much time there.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Well, they are testing an open AI powered head set
at five hundred of their restaurants in the US, and
basically the people will have head.

Speaker 5 (02:58):
Sets on place order when you're reading, yes.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
And it'll be collecting data on everything, and there's a
voice that will speak to you if you're working there
as an employee.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
So if the drink machine's.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
Low on I don't know, Fanta Fanta, it'll be like
there's low fantera, but thank you AI.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Apparently a customer uses a QR code to report like
that there's poos all over the toilet, there's poos in
the toilet.

Speaker 5 (03:24):
Yeah, so they're using a QR code. Well, they the customer.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
You'd report it as a customer and say, like other bathrooms, yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Just walk out.

Speaker 5 (03:32):
Yeah, we got pose it everywhere there.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
Yeah, it'll also do like inventry and stuff and be
like you're low on buns or whatever. They get lower
on little heads in But apparently this is what people
are talking about. The system can also also track when
employees say keywords like welcome, please, and thank you.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
Also tracking like your behavior as a like editor.

Speaker 7 (03:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
Yeah, so if Hailey was i don't know, hungover and
doing a shift and she was a but.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
What do you want? Yeah you did, it would clock it.

Speaker 8 (04:04):
There's in the toilet, not today, You're you're only think it's.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
The only thing is like, when you know you're being monitored,
you'll adjust your behavior, which is great because then you
become a better customer.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
What you're saying is the key to behavior is constant
monitoring from Big Brother.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yeah, behavior is constantly monitored. It's recorded at every moment.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
Podcast but obviously I'm listening to an interesting podcast a
few months ago. Forget who where it was from, but
it was basically like the poorest people will have to
deal with this kind of monitoring, Like it's already happening
with like Amazon.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
And stuff on them.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yeah, already, drivers in you know, trucks are like having
your faces monitored and are they looking right.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
Island to do whatever they want about what the hell
they want? An Amazon employee takes five minutes too long
on his break and he's.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Gone, you're quite right. Hey, yeah, it's awful, it's pretty
Are you calling for a revolution? Are we rising?

Speaker 4 (05:17):
But this is the thing I already like, is it
Microsoft Teams is changing this month or did they change
at the end of the last month, Like they're sharing
your location as well.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
So I hate all that stuff, I.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
Know, but it's only getting worse. And this is like
why people are like, oh what now, you're you know,
monitoring how many times they said thank you to a customer.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
A friend of mine had a track of put in
their company car. Oh wow, and it's it's I would
be so I don't know, I just don't like that.
I'm like, it's kind of a minute. Is your business
where I am? If if my job is out about
the yeah yeah, yeah, but just that thing. And you
want to make sure that why were you here at
the beach?

Speaker 4 (05:55):
You want to make sure they're at a client's house
or a client's business.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
If I'm at the beach, it's high tide. Some is
nearly gone. I'm making the most of it.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
You are the worst person I could imagine being tracked to.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Mym he done, it will be I'm just making the
most high.

Speaker 5 (06:12):
Sometimes I'll open my fine friends to see how far
away my daughter is from getting dropped off by the
bus after school, and it'll be like Hailey's in Turnbuck two.
I'm like, yeah, in weird places, weird Yanda sand packing
up some taxi toar me.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Probably it's none of your business.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
What are you doing with Sandra the Fletchborn and Haley
pod So.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Jim Carrey was honored at the fifty first Caesar Awards
in Paris for his like career basically long career, services
to the arts, that kind of thing. And it got
people talking because when he turned up he had a
different face, like yeah, how old is he now? Sixty three?
Sixty four? Yeah, okay, yeah, so yes that your face

(07:03):
does look different, for sure.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
But if you're a Hollywood star, it probably looks different,
not because of aging, but because of what you've done
to it with a surgeon.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
He looks like he's had some kind of cheek filler.
The shape of his eyes is different rounder rather than
like almond shaped. In some images it looks like his
eyes are a completely different color. Right. He also was
speaking slightly differently. I know he was nervous, and he

(07:32):
did his speech entirely in French, and he'd like worked
on it for money.

Speaker 5 (07:37):
He's French Canadian. He is Canadian, right, so he would
part of it.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
But he didn't. He's not like confident in French. So
he the guy who like runs the Caesar Awards, was
you know, saying he was very nervous, was working really
hard on to get the pronunciation of everything like that.
But everyone's like, that's not Jim Carrett, Like, what are
we going to? How we got to call this out?
And now the internet is like rife with conspiracy theories
that it was someone wearing a mask.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
There was a which would be hilarious considering he was
the star of the masts back in the day.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Have you seen the memes of like him with the mask?
But it's just this new odd face. So there was
a makeup artist in drake Quin called Alexis Stone who
then fielded a bit by putting a photo of a
prosthetic kind of rubbery face and saying Alexis Stone as
Jim Carrey in Paris. The Everett Like, so, the runner

(08:32):
of the Caesar Awards has come out saying this is
a non issue. It was him. He came with all
of his family and his daughters. Yeah, but it.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
Hasn't stopped the internet. He's saying that it wasn't you know,
someone dressed as him.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
Oh the conspiracy theory that everyone's just like absolutely no way,
Like how do you change eye color? I think he's
just had which is odd for Jim Carrey. I wouldn't
have I wouldn't have anticipated he was someone who would
get plastic surgery.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
Especially because his face is what kind of made him
so famous at all.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, he's so kind of anti Hollywood.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
Confirmed it was him who attended the awards ceremony where
he received the Honorary Caesar. A variety also confirmed with
the Caesar Awards that he accepted the honor. Yeah, it's
but what happened? People world talking about your face?

Speaker 3 (09:20):
I know, and like there's a you know, number of theories,
like you knows he's aging. He clearly had some makeup
on that wasn't the right color, Like it's quite orange. Yeah, right,
they said lighting could be an issue. You know, there's
lots of explanations, but the most exciting one is.

Speaker 5 (09:40):
That it's not him having turned forty four. I was
getting the article lots about how these two ages that
you age forty four and sixty. So maybe this is
but it's kind of gone past that sixty thing. Maybe
he's just aging.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah, but there's like footage of him talking, maybe only
like one or two years ago, and his face is
the face that we know it's aging. It's older, for sure.
How do you change that last?

Speaker 4 (10:09):
It's bad enough aging. But when you're a celebrity and
you age in front of the world totally and then
you don't look like you did you know in your prime,
that must just be the most ruthless thing in the world, totally.
Just you would never go online, No, you would, And
a lot of celebrities don't for this very reason. They
don't even even have phones, some of them.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
Yeah, I think it's just perhaps some he's had a
small alleged reaction to something he's even before, Yes, small
selfish shellfish allergy. Yeah, he's aging, and he's just got
bad makeup on. I don't your case closes. I don't
think this was a clone or a exitor.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
Yeah, drag.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Does that end? Podcast network?

Speaker 5 (10:55):
From the unmoderated comments section, this is the top sex

of a liner or an ad done on three seconds.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
Well, the world is seemingly uh in the midst three
and imploding with more attacks overnight missiles. For it's just
so weird to see, Like, I mean, we just live
in the social media age now where you see it
all you see missile defense systems and like fighter jets
and explosions, and it's just insane.

Speaker 5 (20:01):
I don't want to step on anybody's toes. And I'm
certainly no experting commenting on this political quag my have it?
Those anti aircrafts, those anti missile systems are pretty cool.
But when you say and then like an adult context,
I guess yeah, adult fireworks.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
Yeah wow, multi billion dollars.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
Way more expensive than a boom box, except loads of
people are dying. Sadly because I tend to keep my
eye off the news on the weekends, you know, like
I just sort of turned out and I find it
all too much.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
It's too much. And then on the sun I jumped
into a bean bag, the little Hugo sprits, and I
was like, let me have a look at what's happening
in the world. I was like, the.

Speaker 6 (20:44):
Is it all?

We got a message from you on the group chat
like what is going on?

Speaker 3 (20:49):
Yeah? It worked tomorrow. So a lot of.

Speaker 4 (20:51):
Flights have been delayed and a lot of keywis have
been infected, especially Emirates in Dubai. They shut down their
earspace for a while. Apparently they've opened up some flights
to let passengers out because they I mean, they deal
with like tens of thousands, of hundreds of thousands of
passengers a day. Isn't it one of the world's But
we looked yesterday was the busiest day?

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Was Jan third. It was three hundred thousand people in
the day. Oh my god. That is just Dubai Airport.

Speaker 5 (21:14):
A lot you know, every four days you're knocking over
a mill guitar. And Doha also pausing flights as well guitar,
a low guitar.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
Instrument, yes, extring guitar.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
And I saw I saw a travel agent in the
news yesterday saying, if you do have a flight coming up,
like say in the next few weeks or months, don't
cancel it yet. Let them cancel it because then you
get your money back.

Speaker 6 (21:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
We had this last year member we were flying through
Doha and they were got attacked.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
Yeah, no, it was the military base was attacked. Any guitar,
So wait for them to do it. So if you
do have flights, maybe just kind of hold off.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
It's funny, Like it's not funny, but like this often
happens with travelers, which is like we're so aware of
the bigger impact of stuff like this happening, But am
I going to be able to get to roam? You know,
because they really want a pizza? You know, that's immediate.
People are dying. This is to screw up European summer.

(22:13):
This this is what I wanted to talk about.

Speaker 4 (22:15):
Like there are people currently like in airports just like
hunkering down because like there are explosions going on over
the head and only get caught in storms, yes, or
like you know, disasters or something that happens overs When
did everything? When did you holiday in the middle of
chaos that you just were innocently in the country or

(22:35):
somewhere and then something crazy happened.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
My parents were in Greece when the economy like absolutely crashed, was.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
Like, would be great for tourists, right, everything would have
been because we went not too long after.

Speaker 5 (22:48):
It was twenty ten from it.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
We saw like bullet.

Speaker 5 (22:52):
Holes and windows and and they couldn't get they had
no money because they couldn't get out cash from the
eighty ms.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, so you're just in grease, like how do I
access my money?

Speaker 4 (23:02):
And there's lots of mankey cats around, really skinty cats,
and you don't.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
I think that's just a general grease thing. Oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:09):
The cats weren't affected by the hungry. They were just
affected by the fact that they were just about to
breed prolifically. Right, Okay, they're always hungry given that we're
a nation of travelers. You always hear about like that,
remember that massive earthquake in Nepal, And they're like, yeah,
there's twelve kiwis there?

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, what the hell are you doing there?

We want to know when you found yourself in the
middle of chaos. Maybe you were traveling overseas and like

the tour people that I was with they were picked
us up and it took us about eight hours to
get to the hotel because the roads are so clogged
and there was like people everywhere in tanks and that
kind of thing.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
We were driving through an Arab spring uprising. What do
you do when you're in a van?

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Do you give way to tanks or the tanks give
way to you?

Speaker 1 (26:41):
You just give way to the people because there were
so many it.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Was I imagine.

the buses, please please let me.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
I'll stop often. Yeah, I'm speed limited. He just managed
to make sure I seed the speed in my tank. Well,
and so what happened to and you have to cut
the trip short.

we spent three days in the airport. A bunch of
new Zealanders in Australia, including.

the resort kind of thing.

Speaker 9 (28:03):
Well, they evacuated a large portion of the people, but
they basically the weather got too bad. They ran out
of boats and some of them had to put our
hands up to stay behind.

Goddamn hero How we just run around with all the
staff packing up the island, tying everything down, you name it,
whatever it is they had so wait till you trimmed

got a fifty percent off next visit.

Speaker 3 (28:35):

Little Little.

Speaker 3 (36:33):
Nine six nine six. Have you ever been able to
recover from the ick? Let's talk about the because last
night on Maths Australia show I Love for Her March.
There's a new groom. His name is Joel. He is
ick personified and during the wedding his mother decided to

(36:56):
get up and give a small speech.

Speaker 13 (36:59):
I knew that I had a special soul that I
had to nurture and love so very tenderly. He was
always very close to me and to his childhood Teddy
and Joe would choose to stay home to lie on
the couch with his games, food and Teddy and not
much has changed really today he still has his teddy

(37:19):
and he still likes to light on my lap and
have me scratches back.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
That's mum, that's mum. By the way, it was one
of the previous contestants like, okay, so, by.

Speaker 5 (37:35):
The way, you still have a titty. I will just
say you've still got quali.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
Yes, I know, but I wouldn't bring him up at
a wedding. So he also during his vows made a
maw edge joke and also made on the same episode
a mauwaff joke. Now look, I'm laughing. Sure, married to him,

(38:01):
so yeah, but he's giving back. And then I found
this article. It was a study done last year in
the UK by the British Psychological Society about the eck
and they did a study forty two percent of daters
broke things off early with a partner after getting the ick.
Is this broken off immediately to see what he looks like? Yeah?

(38:21):
And so he calls himself an ex fat uber driver
because he was, you know, heavier and whatnot.

Speaker 5 (38:29):
Now five years, what does it say He's spent five
years reinventing himself. Yeah, is this the guy also that?

Speaker 3 (38:36):
Oh no, maybe that's a spoiler. Actually, so why I
say what?

Speaker 5 (38:39):
I saw?

Speaker 3 (38:40):
His wife hits him up about something she's found a
video of him doing. Yeah, that's spoiler spoiler spoilers.

Speaker 5 (38:46):
It's so hard being so behind.

Speaker 3 (38:48):
We're so behind.

Speaker 5 (38:49):
It's twenty twenty six. Make the episodes the same day.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
I know. We talked to John Akin about this at
lunch when he took our skills out lunch. He say
that he was that. He was like, also, like, it's
so weird that we're so behind. We get Love Island
on the same day as the UK. Anyway, we'll work
on it personally. But that's forty six percent of people
would would leave a partner because they get the ac

(39:12):
nine six nine six, Yes, I got them all.

Speaker 5 (39:15):
No, that's about Pokemon. That's somebody who's taken the day
off from christ you're just too old to.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Go to work. They building their Pokemon lego. Oh okay,
I'm happy to talk about the Pokemon. No, No, we're
all good. No, never recover from getting the eg How
bad is the eck though?

Speaker 5 (39:30):
Like, because there might be a little ak where you're like,
but but they're so hot and you can overlock it,
and you're like, maybe don't do that again, but then
you're trying to change someone.

Speaker 3 (39:37):
So maybe just learn to deal with that. But what
if you see the legs waiting and water, you know,
it's like you can only be so hot, you know,
when you're sort of waiting like this and your little
legs are motoring like this.

Speaker 5 (39:52):
I saw one where a woman was on a date
with a guy and he drank out of a glass
and she could see his teeth through the bottom of
the glass and he's like, yeah, as he drank, and
she's like, I don't know if I gonna get over that.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
It could be. I think the general VIOB with the
tics machine is no, you don't get over the irk.
I mean, you've got to be pretty hot to you
know how bad survivor socket reveal? Oh do you know
what I mean? Like my house is a shoes off
housees for them going.

Speaker 5 (40:20):
Socket.

Speaker 4 (40:21):
I just want to throw out my sockets because they're
not cooling anymore.

Speaker 3 (40:24):
Yeah, what if.

Speaker 5 (40:25):
They take off the boat shoe or the loafer and
there's no sock though, that's worse. That's gonna stink.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
But when you take and you.

Speaker 5 (40:33):
Were like, take off your shoes and it's a boat shoe,
I reckon, leave them on it, scram No.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
I think you take off the boat, shoe or loafer
and take off the socket.

Speaker 5 (40:41):
At the same time, somebody said they're srew a guy
without a hat.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
What do you mean? Like you two that they always
wore a hat and then they took the hat off, and.

Speaker 5 (40:52):

I'm still not doing the mouthing on you, no offense.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
I'm dying. You've got to mouth me.

Speaker 5 (43:44):
What if I get George?

Speaker 3 (43:48):
Would you do the mouth to mouth on? Would you
mouth me? George mouth Shannon and Carmen wood mouth. Shannon's
desperate to mouth me. Look at it, not even dying, Shannon,
put your tongue back and that it's not appropriate. I
can't believe you guys would od mouth you genuine friends

(44:09):
that I'm glad wrap tub you.

Speaker 4 (44:11):
Oh you know, lots of first aid cats have the
mouth condoms off but don't.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
I don't even get cold saws. I brush my teeth
twice a day.

Speaker 5 (44:22):
Maybe from like Mighty tindle a hole in it.

Speaker 3 (44:27):
Maybe I'd do that dental damn from Peaches and Crime. Yeah,
finally finds its use.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
The z M podcast network plays ends Flitch worn and Haley.

Speaker 3 (44:40):
Law Roach, who is a stylist known for drag race
and America's Name's not Model, which you don't really talk
about it anymore, dropped a bit of a bomb on
the Red carpet when asked about Tom Holland and Zindaya.

Speaker 5 (44:55):
You come to her and say, Hayes and.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Day, I think, or does she say this is the
that's right?

Speaker 5 (45:00):
I want to look ye the way didn't already happen
y'all missed that?

Speaker 3 (45:04):
Oh you know the other day they say she had
on a gold man over Sorry you start, had on
a gold band. So apparently now the rumors right that
Zendia and Tom are already married. They did it quietly,
like most things they do. Yeah, right there, they keep
their They actually managed to keep their private life pretty private.
Have these rumors been around a while?

Speaker 5 (45:23):
It's just that this was set on the red cart
I sit on the red carpet because if you field
it again, yeah, they'd be.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
Wearing rings and whatnot. But they are yet to make comment.
And if that's good from them, it must be so
hard being a major celeb in keeping your private life private.

Speaker 4 (45:39):
We struggle that, whereas some celebs would want to make
money off of it and get the attention.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
To get it on Instagram and whatnot. Yeah, but anyway,
secret wedding may have occurred, and I want to know,
did you get secretly married or maybe you attended a
secret wedding? Why? Why do people sit? Is it family?

Speaker 5 (45:56):
A lot of the time you imagine a year family drama.
Someone in the family's going to make it the day
about them, and you're just like, look, this is going
to be easier if it's just us and a couple.

Speaker 3 (46:04):
Of cheaper so ye, cheaper, it can do it. You
and you know, a couple of friends or no one.

Speaker 5 (46:10):
Yeah, yeah for sure, Okay, we've already got text message
to get the ball wrong. Ohyah, I would I find
the reasoning fascinating? Well, I find their reason and completely understandable.
Not wanting a fast their big deals. How they even
kept it a secret this long is incredible.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
How they get kissed without paparazzi following them constantly. Well
maybe they just get really small.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
But when people aren't celebrities like, it's like, why why
do you secretly want to get married?

Speaker 5 (46:37):
It's so so unusual. It's not what everybody does.

Speaker 4 (46:40):
Because you used to your friends posting about their weddings
for the next eight years.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
Yeah, yeah, because you pay a lot for those photos.
And I got shredded.

Speaker 4 (46:47):
So it's been nineteen months since my wedding and then
three weeks later, it's been nineteen months since my wedding.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, one year anniversary.

Speaker 5 (46:57):
Message, and I got secretly married on Leap twenty. It
took us two years to tell people were married, and
then we split up eight months after we told him.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
Oh maybe living in the secret was what was holding
you together.

Speaker 6 (47:10):
Why.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
I want to know why?

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Wow? Why they got secretly married?

Speaker 12 (47:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (47:14):
Okay, well only one hundred dollars it and that's a number.
Text in nine six nine says, oh, way have a.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Friend that got secretly married. I'll share that story next,
even though it's not mine to share it. We want
to know did you get secretly married? Poor Roach, who
is a stylist and whose styles in Daya may have
let it slip. Confirmation that they're already married Zin Daya
and Tom Holland secret wedding. No details, no confirmation, but

(47:38):
we want to know. Did you get secretly married?

Speaker 5 (47:40):
I love the story? Shortag, Lisa, you got secretly married?

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Yes?

Speaker 9 (47:46):
I did so, me and my partner we planned to
get married on the thirty first of March. Yeah, and
we had our kids as our witnesses.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
So they're about eight and ten. Kuah, okay, do they
have signatures? Will that stand up in court?

Speaker 5 (48:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (48:03):
Okay okay.

Speaker 9 (48:05):
And yeah, so we announced it to our family on
April Fool's Day.

Speaker 5 (48:09):
Now, how did they take that?

Speaker 4 (48:11):
Because some people get some family members get quite angry
at that news.

Speaker 9 (48:16):
Oh yeah, so mother in law wasn't happy. I took
it away from her, but she's look good now. And
everyone else was really happy because we had been together
for like thirteen years. Anyway, kids about getting married and
we just thought, oh wow, we'll just do it wedding
or anything like that.

Speaker 3 (48:36):
So did you did you, elope or did you just
do it?

Speaker 15 (48:40):
Yep?

Speaker 3 (48:41):
Right, okay? And then the handsel free, cheaper cheap. Yeah,
it was so cruisy like.

Speaker 9 (48:46):
It was just so nice to give our kids that
moment as well.

Speaker 5 (48:49):
Did you Oh sorry, where did you alope too?

Speaker 9 (48:52):
So we didn't go anywhere special but well special for us.
So we just did it at the Hamilton gardens near
the road.

Speaker 3 (48:58):
Oh my god, it's so beautiful. It is special. Do
they change it? But more than the entry. You don't
tell them either.

Speaker 5 (49:04):
You don't tell the mother in law, you don't tell
the gardeners, you don't tell the person at the office. Wow.
I feel like they'd charge you more if they knew.
It was a winning a high ridge of swords at
the h and that was all charges because it was
just out of the actual garden.

Speaker 4 (49:22):
Type lovely spot. Amazing Lisa, thank you cat. Did you
get secretly married? May have gone miss Ron, good morning?
Did you get secretly married?

Speaker 3 (49:41):
Yes? Morning, good morning? So who did you tell? Nobody?

Speaker 6 (49:48):
So we told about three friends and then we told
our parents over thieves because they had to be live streams.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
But that was it.

Speaker 6 (49:59):
Even my kids didn't an idea, wow, so they weren't
part of it. We basically eloped at UH on my
my wife's birthday last year, last November UH. And we
kept in the secrets. We didn't want everyone to really

(50:19):
fuss over getting ready for a wedding and who's going
to be the bridesmaid and groomsmen and all of that,
So we invited everyone to a birthday party three weeks later,
and in order to get everyone there, I told them
that I'm going to propose the birthday party. At the
birthday party.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
Wow, it lies lies on lies at this point, and.

Speaker 6 (50:45):
It wasn't a lie. It wasn't a lie. I actually
proposed at the party. Everyone was out with with the cameras.
But then the reaction from my wife was, Okay, then
let's just get married now. Because we have a friend
who live pastor and he was there and he was
in on the secret right, and he started officiating ceremony.

(51:11):
And after we exchange our vows in front of everyone,
and before the ring exchanged, we actually played the video
clip of our everyone by even further surprised.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
So you kind of hit two weddings, really if you
did vows another time around.

Speaker 5 (51:29):
And where any of the family annoyed that they didn't
get to go to the wedding, No, they.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
Were just shocked.

Speaker 6 (51:36):
But to be honest, my kids weren't extremely I mean
they were surprised, they were shocked, but afterwards they reflected
and they said, oh yeah, that's.

Speaker 5 (51:45):
Kind of you think.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
I love that. Darn thank you.

Speaker 5 (51:52):
Some more messages in my wife and I chopping up
the mountains and queens sound just asked the part of
the photographer and a celebrant. So they told two people,
told people two weeks later at the engagement party. A
lot of people doing that, just getting it out of
the way, taking the pressure off of the love that.
Um somebody else said, friend of mine had their winning recently,
but at the winning showed a video that they were
already married a year earlier at a random car.

Speaker 3 (52:12):
Wash a year really wash the car wash, Yeah, I
mean it's got a song.

Speaker 5 (52:19):
It's right there, my when the phone goes all pink
and the Yeah, that's going as long as you remember
to put the aerial down.

Speaker 3 (52:26):
I meation tears.

Speaker 5 (52:28):
Oh yeah, my husband and I eloped tongue. I was
looking up accommodation for the trip that wo'd already planned
an email. My husband linked to weddings and ra and
said should we do this while we're there? And he said, yeah,
why not? So that's how we did that year Okay,
that's which are great. A lot of just low key
people just getting it done.

Speaker 6 (52:43):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
I can't relate any in any which way to being
low key. No, I don't want to get married, but
if I did, it would have to be fuss. Yeah,
a real kerfuffle.

Speaker 5 (52:55):
I got secretly married seven years ago after being together
for seven months. I wouldn't get kicked out of the
UK for good. We end up together anywhere. We just
had a real wedding a week or so ago, So
I guess, oh that's nice. I guess we're all right.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
Do they let you, though, stay in the country when
they're like, wait, you've only just met this person and
now you're getting married, Like.

Speaker 5 (53:12):
You just fudge it. Don't even make it look like
you've been together longer.

Speaker 3 (53:15):
Yeah, my friend did there. Secretly got married overseas to
stay overseas, never told a family or anything till like
a decade later.

Speaker 5 (53:21):
Wow, yeah, okay, are they still together? Oh god no,
she's got a British passport though. Yeah yeah great.

Speaker 3 (53:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (53:32):
Lots of elopements overseas were never really planned to get married.
I was in New York and we're just like, oh,
maybe we should get married at city Hall. That'd be funny.
Thought it'd be a cool story. Pulled a guy off
the street to be the witness. I've been married for
two years now. Our parents were shocked but happy for us.
I love that knew that we would never have got
married if we were just here.

Speaker 3 (53:49):
I'd love a Vegas you know, like a big sort
of boozy Vegas thing. Yeah, that'd be fun.

Speaker 5 (53:55):
Yeah, but again, not enough attention for you.

Speaker 10 (53:58):
No, there cast needwork plays. It ends flesh porn and Haley.

Speaker 3 (54:05):
Fact of the day, day day day day.

Speaker 5 (54:10):
Do do do.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
Do do do do do do do do do do.

Speaker 5 (54:21):
All this week from clinic to living room, is the
way you could put it. Are things that started out
in the medical field that have moved to everyday use
or moved out of the medical field, primarily buck plugs yesterday,
and thank you to the person that sent me a
picture of a pekatry tail attached to one at a
local charity shop. Not interested in apparently in the dress

(54:42):
up section. So today, headphones, headphones the.

Speaker 3 (54:47):
What we were right now three of us are wearing headphones. Yeah, hey,
originally regular are wiz these ones as well?

Speaker 5 (54:53):
They're industry standard. What are they Sony.

Speaker 3 (54:57):
I don't know yesterday they had these. They have them
industry standard MBRV six Tatary. Yeah, I've been looking at yours.

Yeh, So you've some new and the nice angershes anger ishes, Yeah,
I do a rage four. She raged.

Speaker 3 (55:28):
She's a rage filled woman.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Well.

Speaker 5 (55:30):
The early medical roots of the headphones was to give
military hearing assessments and audio medis for like hearing tests
for hearing loss to judge, to judge your hearing loss.
Well before they were used to listen to music, they
were used to listen to beeps and decreasing sound and
increasing pitch to see whereabouts the hearing loss was happening.

(55:52):
So in nineteen ten, Nathaniel Baldwin built a headset in
his kitchen and the US Navy adopted it because it
allowed for US auditory monitoring of the bleeps. And the
bloops of a radar as well, so it was used
for hearing tests, and then it evolved into more precise
hearing so you could put your hands on. That evolved

(56:13):
into switchboard usage for telephones.

Speaker 3 (56:16):
But it wasn't until the.

Speaker 5 (56:16):
Mid century that transistor radios kind of popped around. That
the first one's popped up for personal usage and then
rarely took off, and sort of the seventies and eighties
with the warkman era, the mobile music era, and then
of course now every bluetooth everyone's although now everyone's going
back to strings corded headphones.

Speaker 3 (56:37):
Go for a run, they're not going to work.

Speaker 5 (56:39):
They're gonna flop you out.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
They're gonna flop out when you'd run on a treadmill
and you'd be tethered to the treadmill by your ears,
and sometimes you get.

Speaker 5 (56:45):
Like you'd like. So today's fact of the day about
things that started out in the medical field and have
moved into general usage. Headphones.

Speaker 3 (56:59):
Fact of the day, Day Day day day.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Clay. It ends flesh worn and Haley.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
Yesterday I was meeting my mother in town before we
went to a little event to celebrate some linens and
I should go to the opening of an envelope.

Speaker 11 (57:29):
No, this was a.

Speaker 3 (57:30):
Celebration of the ankle arene because remember we talked about
them in that.

Speaker 5 (57:34):
It's pass sheets, It's not it's pass sheep quilts.

Speaker 3 (57:38):
And cushions and stuff.

Speaker 5 (57:41):
I'm actually in the market for a new bed, like
what do you Covelet not to do that. I don't
like those they do at do you know what? It's
not your style because the cat's ruined mine. The cat's surprise.
Cats ruined something else.

Speaker 3 (57:56):
Quite like a lot of like florals and prints and whatnot.
It's not amaz You're.

Speaker 4 (58:03):
Okay, I mean I'll take it because I'd rather be
basic than be into floral's.

Speaker 3 (58:07):
Whah you heard me crazy? Anyway, So I was meeting
my mum up on Ponsonby Road in Auckland if you
know it, and found a good park opposite where I
was going to meet her, and I was a little
bit early, so I was going to pop into a
little shop.

Speaker 5 (58:24):
And was it not shopping going? How's that saving money?

Speaker 3 (58:27):
Said? It was Monday, that's your shopping day. Remember it's
my shopping day. Thank you, But you haven't been You
can't uphold the rules for me? And then not honor them. Okay,
so Monday was my shopping day. Okay, today have I
but did you buy anything on other days last week?
I actually just think that you're as none of your
business and actually think you've been coming across as I'm

(58:48):
going to really aggressive and I'm going to ask you
to stop. So jeez. Anyways, so I parked my car
on the left side of the road and I've got
across to the right side of the road. Now, if
there's one thing I've come to accept about myself in
recent years is that I don't wear pants. I don't
wear pants. I hate pants. I wear skirts and dresses

(59:10):
very rarely see you in a pant. Yeah, I would
seldom wear pants. I don't even really if with a
short you know, I'm just not interested out while I
wear those every day. But I wouldn't wear the mountch
to Pontsiby Road to a fine linens event even I
know that. So yesterday I was wearing pants, just a
wide loose pants and I don't know why, feeling a

(59:33):
bit fat got my period, you know, know, I'm just
feeling but yeah, I want to wear some pants, and
I rue the day that I chose to wear pants
because I did that thing where I'd park my car
and get out and I'm not at a crossing, and
I'm just looking across the road and I see a
break in the traffack where cars are slowly coming from
that way, and they've stopped from that way. So I'm like,

(59:54):
I'll make a break for it, but I will have
to get a bit of a hustle on. And so
I start running across ponson me rode and suddenly I'm
just like boof, and I've hit the deck and I've
just You've got a grap I know, and my knees
bustard like my elbows. You've taken a tumble I had,
I had grazed hands. You still got a grazed knee.

(01:00:15):
Look at that. It's major, that one there. And do
you know what it was? My toe got hooked and
the bell of my pants, my toe took down. That
was a wide leg pant, my mistake, and then the
toe gott.

Speaker 5 (01:00:28):
I don't feel that's enough to it took me over.

Speaker 3 (01:00:31):
It did because I felt the snack and it kind
of pulled my toe aside.

Speaker 5 (01:00:35):
But like having your shoelaces tied, she's gone straight down.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
I was taking quite it was all on one leg.

Speaker 5 (01:00:43):
You generally what takes you down in the shoelaces when
you stand on one shoelacer from the other foot.

Speaker 3 (01:00:47):
I don't really know. Its very coordinated.

Speaker 5 (01:00:54):
Both your feet were off.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
The front leg was there, and then the pant was
blowing in the went very windy yesterday and Auckland and
we're like this and then the toe just tried to
go forward like that gets pulled back and I just
kind of trapped you. I got stingy gravel rash. Look
at that. That's major. Are we getting out on the
camera just for social see?

Speaker 5 (01:01:15):
That's just telling me she can't quite focus on it, like,
not big enough for the carpet burn. It's not.

Speaker 3 (01:01:23):
Carpet lounge room carpet burn, guys.

Speaker 4 (01:01:27):
It was the road I saw like when someone comes
to work and they're like, oh my god, it's not
it's not a hacky.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
It's my vacuum cleaner got core rip and these carpet
burns on my elbows and knees and forehead. Weirdly, I know,
I wish, I honestly wish someone saw it because it
was a real, like ungraceful flap like that and then
I had to do that thing where you're on your
own so you try to laugh it off because you're
so embarrassed, Like it would be funny if someone a

(01:01:54):
friend was with me and they could laugh at me
in the moment, but they wasn't so way to do
that thing. I was like, I'm fine by the no,
I'm gonna have the car chivalries deep. Oh yeah, because
by the time I realized what had happened, the car
was at me. Yeah. In fact, I'm sorry, I nearly
died yesterday.

Speaker 5 (01:02:11):
Oh here we go run over on points of road?

Speaker 3 (01:02:14):
Can you see the evidence? Oh, Albert, you're.

Speaker 4 (01:02:16):
Gonna need to sort out this before you run this weekend.
You're eight k run if I what if I fought?

Speaker 3 (01:02:21):
I mean, actually I did hook my time and it's
quite sore, so that might even pull me out of
the race.

Speaker 10 (01:02:29):
Needwork, silly little post.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
It is so silly, silly, silly, that silly little poole.

Speaker 5 (01:02:40):
Silly. Have you ever made a close friends story for
just one specific person to see? Is that I still
a little pulvers. It's ridiculous. I don't even use close
friends on Instagram, But wouldn't you just put up a
story or a post, and then one that you want

(01:03:00):
to see it will see it. I'm looking forward to
seeing what kind of things people do post.

Speaker 4 (01:03:04):
Well, obviously I have an understand obviously, first traps or
things to make people jealous me.

Speaker 3 (01:03:11):
I see my first traps direct.

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
Yeah, I would have thought that would have been a
better idea. Well, seventeen percent of people have okay, so
you know I'm just under one and five. Well, eighty
three percent of people said no, let's see said I
voted no.

Speaker 3 (01:03:26):
I didn't know I could. I don't know I would
too much effort.

Speaker 5 (01:03:31):
Yeah, thank edmund Rene. Sounds like a direct. She's going
to just send it direct. Yeah, I just love attention,
said Phoebe. So she does a closer ends post. Maybe
not for everybody, maybe for a select feud attention she gets.

Speaker 4 (01:03:43):
Phoebe sounds like one of those people that would post
a photo in the hospital bed with no caption it.
I don't want to say anything.

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
Guys, I'll tell you all when the time's right, she said. No.

Speaker 5 (01:03:54):
But if this was a thing back in my single days,
I absolutely would have. Yeah, right, just to get some
guys attention. Be a fellow, and then what a weekend,
you add them to close friends. Yeah, but maybe he
hasn't messaged you back. So you put up a lovely
photo of you with I don't know, some side.

Speaker 3 (01:04:12):
Burg or yeah, yeaheaking the last summer bikini shot or
something like that.

Speaker 5 (01:04:19):
Close friends that would have worked yesterday. To be honest,
Well today it's too cold. Now you've a great bikini.
Because everything's cold, everything's sucking and closer, so good hard.
You've got all the hallmarks there. The next bersionence is
this is anonymous, obvious reason, So I go one step further.
People can see the green border when they're doing a
close friends story. If I want someone to see something

(01:04:39):
and I want to be nonchalant about it, I'll hide
my story from every single person that follows me except
that one. That way, it just looks like a normal,
wholesome close friends story. But I'm really just fishing for
a response.

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
Oh quit an embarrassing if you see they're viewed it
and they don't reply to you.

Speaker 3 (01:04:56):
I know, I know the whole point. Yeah, hard scene.

Speaker 5 (01:05:00):
Yeah, Aaron said, I wanted to show my ex bestI
who was giving me a hard time, that I was
actually in hospital to get them to feel bad. Yeah,
so yeah, I posted a close friend's hospital. Okay, so
they knew I wasn't making it up. MC. Yes, currently
doing that for a hookup. I'm liking too much putting
only sixty first traps on there. But he doesn't know,
he he so it doesn't answer for him.

Speaker 4 (01:05:22):
Well, don't accidentally post those to your story for friends.
How people are run the sperion's close friends and to
have a perv on their mate.

Speaker 5 (01:05:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
I never use close friends neither, and when I see
a close friends story from someone else, I'm like, thank
you for having me in your close friends. Yes, you're
not mine. I don't do close don't do close friends.

Speaker 4 (01:05:40):
For a while, they were saying that's how you could
get celebrities if you add them to.

Speaker 5 (01:05:45):
Your close friends close friends, and might show up and
they might see you. Oh really, Yes that's still work.

Speaker 3 (01:05:52):
Any word on that that's still works? I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:05:54):
Yeah, probably will close that loodpole. Hanna said, my best
friend had a Tinder fling do exactly. This wasn't hard
to work out. She was the only one in it
with what he was posting. Yeah, right, right, so he
was he was fishing in a barrel. I think you
call that or shooting fish in a barrel. I was
trying to head on a girl i'd match with on Tinder,
but they ended up ghosting me. This was my attempt

(01:06:15):
at finding out why still didn't get a response.

Speaker 3 (01:06:17):
Oh see that and when that happens that I love
fishing for attentionure right, Yeah, this.

Speaker 5 (01:06:25):
Doesn't surprise anyone, it does. That's like you're saying, did
you guys know the sky appears blue?

Speaker 6 (01:06:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:06:31):
Yeah, yeah, We'll be like, yes, do you know water
is essential to survive?

Speaker 6 (01:06:35):
We know that.

Speaker 5 (01:06:35):
I love to retresh for Dan said as a game
animal is shocked when my cousin's art comes up in
my green circle and it's not someone in a jockstrap.

Speaker 3 (01:06:46):
Jockstrap cousins. The gays do love a close friends. They
love a jock.

Speaker 5 (01:06:53):
Ye don't they. Well, for today's the little part, we
asked if you've ever posted a close friends story for
just once specific person, and seventeen percent of you have
needwork plays.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
It ends flesh fornon Haley.

Speaker 5 (01:07:07):
Well. The Melbourne Grand Prix is on this weekend and
then New Zealand are participating for the Visa cash out
racing balls as Liam Lawson, who joins us in studio.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
Good morning, Hello, thanks for having me. Blicks are coming in,
fresh can of red Bull, just cracked. I know, it's
what's the time, it's early early. What's it like being home?

Speaker 5 (01:07:25):
You've been kind of all around the world of late.

Speaker 7 (01:07:28):
Yeah, it's it's always good, Like it's always very really
nice to be home. I can never spend enough time here,
Like I came here over Christmas for two and a
half weeks, and I wanted to.

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
I probably should have relaxed as much as.

Speaker 7 (01:07:40):
I could, but I ended up just doing stuff every
single day because I had so much.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
I wanted to do, and I condensed it all and
then I was gone. So what kind of stuff do
you want to do when you go like hobbitom family.

Speaker 7 (01:07:51):
I probably should have just switched off a little bit.
It was a long, like really brutal season, and I
was just on a dirt bike and on a jet
ski and driving cars doing stuff every single day.

Speaker 5 (01:08:00):
All right, So you're downstairs and you just get into
a different sort of moment pretty much.

Speaker 3 (01:08:05):
A guy put your feet out. What if you had
a jet ski accident. It's water and it's just from
your fall on the water. It's right, a little bit safer.

Speaker 7 (01:08:15):
Although my friend smashed his head on a jet ski
and actually cracked the engine cover on it before.

Speaker 3 (01:08:21):
So do you have like a favorite place, like a
favorite country to visit because you move around so much.

Speaker 7 (01:08:28):
Yeah, it's it's home, like New Zealanders has probably always
been number one.

Speaker 3 (01:08:32):
And America Love America.

Speaker 7 (01:08:34):
Been out there my girlfriends from California, So yeah, I'm
out there quite a lot during the season in between breaks.
We have a few more American races now as well.
So yeah, I like like spending something out there.

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
How did how did? How would you when you started?
Because it's not a huge, huge sport in New Zealand, No,
it's you start. I did.

Speaker 7 (01:08:56):
Yeah, I was go karting when I was six years
old or seven years old, so yeah, And I mean
guys guys now are starting like four years old in
a go cut. I think if I had to get
he had been a go cut a three or straight
in there.

Speaker 4 (01:09:10):
I always find it cute when the kids go past
on little dirt bikes and there like three or something,
he's just like whoa.

Speaker 7 (01:09:16):
It's like the way it almost you sort of have
to do it. It's been literally my whole life. That's
all I've done. All I know and like since as
far as backs, as far back as I can remember.
So yeah, I feel like he'd always have known what
I wanted to do, and obviously to be able to
be doing it now is it's very cool.

Speaker 5 (01:09:31):
So having been into it for so long and around
different sorts of motorsport, you obviously looked up to some
of the guys you're now racing against. What's what's that like?

Speaker 7 (01:09:38):
Yeah, Like when I was young, Lewis was definitely he
was Like when I was eight years old, I read
his book, probably the only book that I really have ever.

Speaker 3 (01:09:46):
Read, but everybody else is reading Harry Potter read Lewis, So.

Speaker 7 (01:09:51):
He's somebody, yeah, that I looked up to, and obviously
to be racing against these guys now is pretty cool.
But at the same time, you know, things become normal
very very quick, Like it's important to always take a
step back and realize how cool it is because you're
so focused on just the next race, the next sort
of achievement, trying to reach it, the next goal.

Speaker 3 (01:10:10):
So yeah, it's been pretty cool, though I experience it
every morning because Flick from vor and I listened to
them who I was, Yeah, be here in the present.
It's just amazing. Checking myself. What was your first car
as like a teenager? Mine was a nineteen ninety two
Mitsubushi Mirage I got for five hundred bucks. The windows
didn't go down and the ashtray was always full. Yeah,

(01:10:32):
I mean to be fair, the best car is that?

Speaker 7 (01:10:34):
My favorite car that were In fact, my parents had
it picked up and got They got crushed by the
records because they got sick of it sitting on the driveway.
But I had this Pergo two o six from like
nineteen I can't even remember what year it was. It
was a GTI and this thing we just it was
a back road basically windst Me and our friends would
just carve it down the back roads. But it was

(01:10:56):
I got it for yeah, five hundred bucks basically, and
it was the best. It's the best carry ever. But
they I didn't know until they told me literally two
days ago that they had it picked up and destroyed.

Speaker 5 (01:11:06):
Just gone. I've got a piece of New Zealand motor
racing history.

Speaker 3 (01:11:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:11:10):
I just had a crushed I had it crushed so
auctioned it off.

Speaker 3 (01:11:13):
My dad got second, then you would have purchased it
for in the first place. What do you drive now
we're not you know, it's just on the Formula one
street Formula one. I mean, I'm sorry about her talking
about what you're heard around and in the fifty kins.

Speaker 7 (01:11:30):
Yeah, so it depends on what part of the world,
like I spend because I said, I spent a lot
of time in America, and they have like we have
utes here, but they have like bigger trucks. Trucks if
one fifties, if two fifties, three fifties, and like so
much bigger. So Ford have a Raptor R which is
basically a supercharged seven hundred and fifty spar V eight

(01:11:54):
truck with like Fox racing shocks that it's like a
stadium truck basically for the road. But they're so practical
there because there's so much space, like you could never drive.

Speaker 3 (01:12:04):
It anymore going over to speed. You're a standard Ranger
and sometimes the parallel parking is just but it's like
two times the size of a Ranger.

Speaker 7 (01:12:12):
They are, they're so much bigger, and but like for
road trips through through America, they're very very nice.

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
Are you a good basic driver, like, can you parallel
park I'm not too bad, I haven't. It feels like
a completely different It's.

Speaker 7 (01:12:27):
Like, in fact, to be fair, some of my teammates
have been terrible drivers on the road, like I've been
with them and just yeah, absolutely, like a.

Speaker 4 (01:12:35):
Cafe or a bar and people were just you know, eating,
and then you pulled up and they noticed you. Would
you feel the appreciative parallel park.

Speaker 3 (01:12:43):
Like one hundred because it's not the same thing.

Speaker 7 (01:12:46):
It's over to formal, like people expect you just to
be good at everything related to a parallel parking, and
certain things are because I'm all about it not indicating
and stuff like.

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
That as well. When you pass a Formula one otherwise
there's a three second time penalty. Oh god it And
if they don't indicate when they pass, you just flip
the burn.

Speaker 5 (01:13:10):
Because you're almost lying flat in a Formula one car, right,
yeah you are, You're lying. You're lying.

Speaker 7 (01:13:14):
Your feet are actually like as high as your eyes.
It's really had to do on this. It's so comfortable,
I promise you. It's not very good for your back,
like we're pretty bad backs and for long because put
a lot of G like G force laterally is massive.
It's like five even more sex g sometimes that you're sustaining,
so not very good for your back. But yeah, it's

(01:13:35):
like I fall asleep in between sessions all the time
in the car, just laid down. Yeah, and you're lying
down and the seat that you're in is completely molded
to your body, so it's like that perfectly better to
you just sit in it and it's like your body shape.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
It wouldn't work for us.

Speaker 5 (01:13:47):
We waiting.

Speaker 3 (01:13:50):
We have to stay consistent. It's very important that you know,
I couldn't. I couldn't. It's like going back into the
season and they're like, oh you sitting and thinking that.

Speaker 7 (01:14:01):
We're first way of the year because we weigh before
every single time, before and after the session. We weigh
with all I can and yeah started the other this year.
My trainer was like, jeesus Liam, he's been.

Speaker 5 (01:14:13):
In a good paddic, he's been raising on the good stuff.
What's the difference in weight between the start and the
end of a session.

Speaker 7 (01:14:18):
It depends on when we're racing and they will calculate,
like team will calculate that because we have a minimum
weight which we want to be as close to as
we can yeah, yeah, so, and obviously they have to
calculate we can get we can gain something by sort
of calculating if I'm a driver that loses two kilos
and a and a hot race, well that's something we
can obviously gain.

Speaker 3 (01:14:36):
We've got to be careful not to be underweight.

Speaker 7 (01:14:38):
So if we're in Singapore like two kilos but swinging
it out, swinging it out, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:14:44):
That's insane. But like two months, that's not what you
think though. It doesn't just go like it comes back.
It's the water weight drink.

Speaker 4 (01:14:55):
If one of them is just absolutely full of the
biggest celebrities in the world, well, who are some of
the biggest celebrities you've met that you're just like, oh
my god, I cannot believe it.

Speaker 3 (01:15:01):
I just meant that person.

Speaker 7 (01:15:03):
I don't even know. I don't I'm really not that
type of person. I think you're probably quite focused. I was, well,
I mean, coming in a Formula one it was it
was I was like that when I was young, but
it was about Formula one drivers. And then and then
sort of as you get closer to Formula one, you
realize that these guys are actually your competition. Now you
know they're not guys that you sort of look up
to anymore. So yeah, I think I probably sort of

(01:15:27):
didn't have that already from a younger age. But yeah,
it's pretty cool that the sports growing. We have some
really cool people that are in and out of the paddock. Yeah,
did you meet Brad Pitt when it is? Because you
popped up in the IF one movie?

Speaker 3 (01:15:39):
Like there he was. Yeah, I know, I like got
a full screen for like half a second.

Speaker 7 (01:15:43):
Yeah, yeah, it was a smile. Yeah, I'm glad you
guys noticed that. There's not many people.

Speaker 3 (01:15:48):
Did I meet him? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:15:53):
I met him and and and I mean he did
a really good job with that movie. I think he
obviously spent a lot of time he was around for
a long time before as well, I think, sort of
getting to know the sport and preparing for it.

Speaker 3 (01:16:03):
So yeah, it was pretty cool to see that. Can
you do that thing where I've seen it where Formula
one drivers can recognize a track based on the sounds
of a car taking it and I know that corner. Yeah,
probably study them that intensely.

Speaker 7 (01:16:19):
Well, that's not we don't unless we're doing a game
show or something like that. No, it's not something where
like where We spend a lot of time in simulators
and my.

Speaker 3 (01:16:29):
Brother builds those. It's his job. People rigs and Melbourne.
What what kind the like gamy ones for rich people,
the people that wanted to do Formula one but weren't
good at it. Yeah, like these ones like the seats
and the curve screens and stuff. But so many people
getting into it and they race teams on the are.

Speaker 7 (01:16:50):
Incredible how how popular it's become and how close it's getting.
You'll never obviously have the feeling the g force, and
that's sort of good. But the accuracy to sort of
the way the car, the platforms that you know we're
doing set up work like our development frail form one cars.
We can't test whenever we want. We can't just go
and test the new car, yeah next week and spend time.
It's it's all done in the simulator. So it has

(01:17:13):
to be super accurate to make these small changes and
then yeah, basically apply them to the real car.

Speaker 3 (01:17:18):
It's like a superpower. It's so amazing. I could never
do it. I could never do it. Also very top
secret parallel parking, it's.

Speaker 7 (01:17:24):
Also very top secret. The simulator. It's like they don't
the Formula one ones. Yeah, they don't let us see
them until. Like as a junior, I wanted to see
the simulator, but they wouldn't let me until the day
that I first drove it.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
Wow, like multiple doors to get to it. Yeah, like
fingerprints scanned wild well, all the beasts of this weekend.
It's in Melbourne.

Speaker 5 (01:17:44):
It keeps off Sunday, eighth of March of five pm.

Speaker 3 (01:17:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:17:47):
Liam Lawson from the Visa cash at Racing Bulls, thanks
so much, Thank you, guys.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Play z ins flesh Fornon Haley.

Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
Georgia joins us just early. Yeah, this is going to
throw people.

Speaker 5 (01:17:57):
You know that.

Speaker 4 (01:17:57):
They We're not saying goodbye to you just yet. George's
because she is a chronic give voucher hoarder.

Speaker 3 (01:18:03):
I am, I don't.

Speaker 5 (01:18:05):
I cleaned out my bed so I draw recently. I
found too well expired.

Speaker 15 (01:18:08):
Yes, now guys call them up, tell them how far
expired it is, and they might extend because as we
happened to three of mine. I'm just waiting to hear
back from the massage place. Yeah, and they're all fancy
restaurant places.

Speaker 4 (01:18:19):
How long had you let them lapse? This is what
we want to ask now is if you are like Georgia,
dear listener, what like what vouchers have gone to waste? Oh,
eight hundred dollars at nine six ninety six because it
was a changing it's insane. Yeah, they are changing on.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
The seventeenth of March. They're changing to a three year minimum.
I belief these roles taking effect because it's going to
be paying for service and you haven't received it. Yeah,
it'll be the law minimum. It'll be the law a
minimum expirery time of three years.

Speaker 15 (01:18:51):
You will see that's ideal because I got a message
voucher for it and it was like six months that
I had to use it, and I was like, yeahy
what doesn't need to relax at the.

Speaker 3 (01:18:58):
Moment like.

Speaker 5 (01:19:00):
A message voucher, I'd use it within the week.

Speaker 15 (01:19:03):
Really, now I got to figure out what I want
to get. I might want a facial, but then I
might want my mother rubbed down.

Speaker 3 (01:19:09):
That's a facial. That's a face, that's that's a spar
voucher either. Okay, figured it out.

Speaker 15 (01:19:16):
But the ones I have for the restaurants was if
at one expired in December and it was for a year,
and then the other one expired literally last week, but
I just.

Speaker 3 (01:19:25):
Called them up and they're like, yeah, all, good to go.
You another year on those bad boys.

Speaker 5 (01:19:28):
It's good that they did that because most places will
be like nop.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
I hate it when you're at the place and you
have a voucher for it, but you didn't bring it,
Like I have forgotten amazing cocktail bar caretakers and I
had one hundred dollar voucher. And then you'll be in
town You're like, should we got a caretakers? You go
and you're like, damn it all cocktails too.

Speaker 4 (01:19:48):
I know, I know, I know, Well, this is what
we want to know. This morning I went a hundred
dollars at m as the number you can text her
as well. Nine six nine six Did.

Speaker 3 (01:19:56):
You waste a gift voucher? And how much w yeah?
How and how long did it expire? Voucher laws are
going to change from March seventeenth. They have to have
a minimum of three years before they can expire.

Speaker 5 (01:20:09):
So do you think this has made people think about
all the Christmas gift can't they got that are just
in a drawer somewhere or that they've.

Speaker 3 (01:20:14):
Like chucked out because they expired, And now there's just
money gone. Because I'm a huge fan of business, yes,
you know me, I do. I put profits over people
every time.

Speaker 5 (01:20:22):
It's just hard on businesses though, because if they've got
outstanding vouchers, they have to count that against their.

Speaker 4 (01:20:27):
Yes, and also the services or the products they sold
the voucher for at the time could be now worth
so much significantly more.

Speaker 3 (01:20:35):
Yes, I mean if.

Speaker 5 (01:20:37):
It's a service, not an agreed price, Like if you
get a two hundred dollars voucher to spend somewhere, that's
two hundred dollars they're actually going to get less. You
actually make you think. But if it's like you get
this service.

Speaker 4 (01:20:51):
That in even a massage a couple of years down
the track, the price of you know, the actual rent
of the business, the electricity, that's all gone up.

Speaker 3 (01:21:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:21:00):
But my when I bought message vouchers recently, it's been
like in brackets the prices.

Speaker 3 (01:21:06):
To spend here and if you want to add on.

Speaker 5 (01:21:08):
Yeah, yes, so if it costs more, you just top
it up ten bucks three years later.

Speaker 3 (01:21:13):
I want a message today, by the way, Like that's
just what any times.

Speaker 5 (01:21:17):
I have wondered about the economy of lost vouchers like,
how much is just lost? Jess joins us, Jess, how
much did you waste on a gift card that expired?

Speaker 3 (01:21:27):
I didn't waste it.

Speaker 11 (01:21:29):
It was My partner has five hundred dollars worth of
Helenstein's vouchers and his draw next to the bed.

Speaker 5 (01:21:36):
Why how did they have five hundred dollars with over.

Speaker 11 (01:21:39):
Three years as Grandma's been giving him money?

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
He sucks it. He sucks as using vouchers.

Speaker 5 (01:21:49):
Far bit from me to speak on Helenstein's behalf. I
reckon that the kind of place that probably allows for it.

Speaker 8 (01:21:54):
He believed that he should be able to use them,
so he did.

Speaker 3 (01:21:57):
One day he's going to use them. They're ten years old.

Speaker 5 (01:22:03):
I'm sorry, Jeers, I don't know, but well, so, why
doesn't Nandas buying something I don't know, some restaurant vouchers
or some other kind of cash.

Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
Yeah, that would be much nicer.

Speaker 5 (01:22:16):
Yeah, my grandad used to call cash life vouchures life.
I've got you some Life vouchers and they give me
twenty bucks.

Speaker 3 (01:22:24):
Jeers, thank you. So.

Speaker 4 (01:22:25):
A stat based on a consumer New Zealand estimate. New
Zealanders lose more than ten million annually on unredeemed and
inspired gift cards. Something else I was thinking about the
other day, the lost like the lost economy of something
where you buy it and then you just never cash
it in and it wasn't vouchers, but or something like that.
Here's something else they say as well, it's unspent mounts

(01:22:46):
that go to waste as well. Let you buy something
on a gift card that's one hundred dollars gift that and.

Speaker 3 (01:22:51):
You've still got twenty six dollars seventeen it you just
check that away and you're like, well, that's what I
was thinking of. That's what I was thinking of. How
much is like you buy something it's three dollars and
so you just forget about it.

Speaker 4 (01:23:01):
More than half the people unable to redeem their vouchers
still had over twenty dollars left on a card remaining.

Speaker 3 (01:23:07):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (01:23:08):
Some messages and Jes said, I recently cackuled US four
hundred and fifty dollars worth of Prizzy cards when they expired.
They've got things. I've got one at the moments there
two years. They shouldn't expire though, No, because that's just
the lifestyle chat that is critit card. Yes, play I
lost fifty dollars on a petrol station voucher because it
went more than two years it expired. My hack is

(01:23:29):
I always go in with the voucher and if I
don't see anything I want to buy, I just buy
another voucher with the voucher, and they're always look.

Speaker 3 (01:23:35):
At me weird. I'm like, well, that wasn't a had
to expire, and I want to keep the ability to
buy something. Where are you going, that's just nothing that
you can buy with that? Yeah, I don't know. Maybe
because at corner you're waiting for the twenty twenty six bars.

Speaker 5 (01:23:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you don't want to be called with
twenty Yeah, you don't call it the twenty twenty five bongs.

Speaker 3 (01:23:53):
You look like a fool.

Speaker 5 (01:23:54):
You want the twenty twenty seven bong again.

Speaker 3 (01:23:57):
These bombs are outdated. Br yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:23:59):
Okay, So you know that New Zealand stat I said,
that's like more than ten million annually unredeemed in America
and America twenty three billion dollars they reckon it's on
unspent gift cards.

Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
That just doesn't surprise me. Isn't that any same that
amount of money. We'll get out there and spend them.

Speaker 5 (01:24:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:24:15):
If we've learned anything today, it's find those gift cards,
spend them, spend.

Speaker 5 (01:24:21):
