Okay, I got you or something, isn't it?

Speaker 2 (00:55):
I found your booking, you found your booking. So I've
got the top six new for neetic letters. Okay, it's
watching out some of the old ones nixt On the show, though,
a woman wants to sew a tree a tree. The
tree done her wrong. A tree has done her very wrong.
If you're a silver birch, if you're a silver birch
tree and you're listening, watch your bags.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
A trunk in a minute, Fletchorn and Haley Big pod.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
There is a woman in Sydney who has absolutely had
it and she's actually threatening legal action against a tree.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
A tree.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, yeah, she's had enough. Can you do that?

Speaker 3 (01:33):
No, thankfully And the council has been very clear with
that from the game.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Right, because that's not a human right.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Do they you know how we don't really sue here
in Sydney and sorry, in New Zealand? Yeah, do they
see in Australia, Yeah, all the time, and in the
same way they're doing America.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
They do. We've got acc right, and it takes care
of a lot of sort of like incidental medical charges. Yeah,
like you would otherwise pass on to the person that caused.
Like if you read the mall and you slept in
a puddle because that had a leaky roof, you just
acc whereas in America you'd sue the mall and some more.
But in Australia, if it rains, my nieces don't play netball?

(02:13):
What because of the amount the exponential increase in kids
slipping over on the courts, madness? What are they going
to do at the World Cup if it rains, Well,
that's what I was thinking.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
We do at the World Cup. Put the floor inside.
How else will we wet the floor?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Drink bottles worn? We can't waste.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
Anyway. So there's this the woman.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
She's really taken umbrage with said tree because she came back.
If you won't believe this after parking under it and
it had, you won't believe this ship its leaves on
her car, and she was absolutely irate a the tree.
I do want to say she is a self described
quote unquote female empowerment coach.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Okay, so I'm painting a picture.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
We're feminists, short, little spiky side.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Killing spiky Yeah, came back to a car immediately, was
filming it, attacking the council, and she said she was
demanding to have the tree chopped down.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Because it put leaves on it, because it had.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
She had a ridiculous amount of droppings, she called it,
after parking under this tree, so it was like those
little you know some trees have little bubbles, Yeah, little
bitsy titsy bitsy. Yes, cut her black car coven and
leaves and titsy bitsys.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
What's she going to do? Because if you've got silver
birch trees around summer years, they're dropping their seats, are they?
Those spiky one that's tiny and they're like they're like
flaky and they look like confetti.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
She also just driving it just blows off. That's sort
of what happens and Australia.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
You want to park under a tree because it's like
four hundred degrees you get the shade.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
Yeah, it was literally, I mean, I've got a droppy
tree in my driveway.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
It's like, no more than I get every day.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
Why, she was demanding for the this is so good
for the council to please explain.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Please explain trees to her.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, so she was demanding the tree was
chopped down. The City of Sydney responded, saying, no, narrow,
we don't remove healthy trees because they drop leaves or
make a mess.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
They wanted her to know that is how a tree behaves. Yes,
in general, and has always behaved.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
The council edited that the health and cooling benefits of
the tree to her and the car far outweigh the
inconvenience and actually Sydney is trying to add more trees
because of this very reason.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
They're so hot.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yes, we need to park under them.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Over the past decade they've received a number of complaints
about trees.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
She's not alone in US people demanding it.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
They'd be dropp chopped down because people are parking under
them and getting leaves on them. She was encouraged to
drive off and the leaves has sort themselves out.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
That is really crazy.

Speaker 4 (04:56):
I know.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
She posted online this warmt It was like a TikTok
being like the please explain and have this tree chopped.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Down, roasted, roasted. Was like one or two comments of
support being like I agree.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Caring really yeah, but mostly people were saying, welcome to
the world.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
This is this is how trees work.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Jack Aranda trees those purple, beautiful purple flowers on them,
and people drive into the neighborhoods in Australia to see
them and then they just dump the purple everywhere, just
a car and everything blocks up drains. Yeah, yeah, but
that's how trees work. Trees work.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Imagine if a tree never shod its leaves and it
just grew more and more leaves, it would be it
would be unbearable.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
For them describing and evergreen. Lots of trees do that,
do they? Yeah, it's crazy, sure man, are you sure?

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Man?

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Tree leaves? Homemade leaves have you ever heard of Autumn
bro I.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Have Fletchorn and Haley Big Pod.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
I remember I shared that we were maybe like a
month ago. I was asleep and there.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Was a cricket, yes, and it was we believed to
be in the door, and we sprayed the door, and
then it was gone. And then a couple of nights later,
remember the cricket was back, Yes, and then we found
the cricket. Now I saw the cricket with my own eyes.
Saw it was the say under this laundry basket, and

(06:25):
I was like, there it is, sprayed it to death.
Cricket dead, no more cricket. That's like a month ago.
And that was not at my house, by the way.
Thought it was some strange stranger's house. Yep, complete stranger
to me. And so to my surprise yesterday when I
was literally about to go to bed in my own home,

(06:49):
I hear this.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
We are you going to play? This was for effect.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
That's a cricket.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
There's a cricket in my own well, you know there's
more than one. No, it's the same guy.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
I know it.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
I recognize this crickety charm. I recognize it. So clearly
he's haunted.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Me you know there's more than one. No, I hear
a cricket?

Speaker 3 (07:09):
How I've never ever had a cricket in my house,
and now if this is the third attack, There was
a cricket and I went looking for it, and I
couldn't find its body, even though its sound was so clear.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Oh, I love. They are very clever with a good
sound reflection, are the cricket?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (07:24):
And then you're like, we're I was trying to locate
it at you, which has led me to believe this
is the ghost of the cricket that I murdered.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Okay, well there are over nine hundred to two and
a half thousand species of cricket. Wow. While there's no
individual census number, because I don't feel out of census
like we do, I should sort that out. Due to
the high reproductive rates in worldwide distribution, their population is
likely to be in the trillions.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
I'm sorry, but the trillions.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Someone had a word to ants that kind of the trillions.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
Yeah, yeah, I'm just gonna live that there. And can
just hear what I had to put up with for
a while, right because I was.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Looking for it, being like last time I found this
little creature.

Speaker 4 (08:08):
Yeah, and I killed him.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
I sorry, was dead.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
I looked in the morning. I looked again, and I
saw his cork.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
It's another one.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
No, it's not.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
It recognizes he taunts me back from the graves. A
ghost cricket. You've got a ghost cricket. You tried to
kill me in the door.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
I found another way. You tried to kill me under
the laundry basket. I found another way. Now he's in
my house. He's followed me from one suburb to the next.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
And I like, you think he stowed away in like
a bag or something. Yeah, got back to you.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
But it's his spirit, because so you're saying it's a
ghost cricket.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yeah, ghost And when when did you find this? Last night?
Did you see it? No?

Speaker 4 (08:48):
I sprayed the room to smotherrings and it went quiet
for a bit, and I was like.

Speaker 2 (08:53):

The ZM podcast Network play z MS Flesh one and Haley.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
They've read a very upset in Australia in particular, but
this is also happening in New Zealand. I've experienced it
at the retail places where you go into the changing
room and they write your name on the changing room door.
This was my first experience of this was at Lululemon
Lemon and they write your name. So we say, well,

(16:58):
as you go in and I've got three pieces, they
hang it up and they say what was your name?
Say Hailey, they close it, they write Hailey on the door.
So as you're getting changed, As you're getting changed, they go, Hailey,
how are you going in there?

Speaker 4 (17:09):
Oh? How you going? Hailey? Are you stealing?

Speaker 2 (17:16):
We told you to get your under pants on this
one hundred percent, Like the cynic in me says, this
is not to get a better customer experience. This is
just personalized you so you don't shop left. One hundred percent.
You want to know your name now, Yeah, that's why
they're doing it, right.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah, So they're saying it feels more welcoming than generic
terms like dahl or love or babe.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
Are you going in their love? Any of those genetic
terms that you hate been called. I don't love babe
from a stranger? Right, babe?

Speaker 1 (17:45):
How are you?

Speaker 4 (17:46):
And you're like, I just what.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
About babes from a stranger? Babes? Babes is and it's
a gay guy sees it to you that it's okay, right.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
Hun, Yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Recently a friend hates Dahl, Darl Champ hate no Champ.
You couldn't call me a single thing Champ, boss, chief captain?
You like those?

Speaker 4 (18:05):
I love them more their ego, even if someone.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Says it like sarcastically like thanks, buddy, I'm like, you're welcome, buddy,
cheers champ.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
So shoppers are saying it feels invasive, like how do
you know my name? Awkward or embarrassing hearing your name
like Hayley, how's the you know XXL?

Speaker 4 (18:23):
Or you wanted to size up further? Stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
Yeah, people are saying people with non Anglo names are like, oh.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
You're gonna have a Starbucks situation?

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yeah? Yeah, and Tranda Hander Rasana are you going o forgot?

Speaker 2 (18:40):
I'm just gonna put Chenny. No you're not.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
But a lot of people are saying it's helping staff,
like it helps them to sort of bring things quicker
and improve their service and everything.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
Also, most of those places have a curtain. There's like
very few places have actual doors, do they?

Speaker 4 (18:56):
Most places have don curtains.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
A move away from curtains more to doors because they
get all because you can lock a door, you can't
lock a curtain for the.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Curtains if they are there. Bouge you know, floor to ceiling.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Now, girlies, you have both experienced this recently at none
other than.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Glass House of the House of G. I don't know
how did.

Speaker 8 (19:17):
Yeah, they've been doing it for a while now. They
have mirror doors, so the outside is a mirror and
they just write it on the mirror like a mark,
like a white wood market, and how your name and
how many items you're taking in?

Speaker 4 (19:32):
How many items? I've had that before.

Speaker 8 (19:34):
Yeah, but I always get nervous because I'm always like,
how are they going to spell my name? Because Shannon,
you can swap out any of the vowels for the end,
and I always judge.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Who's spelling it any differently than how you do it.

Speaker 8 (19:48):
I lived with a Shannon who was with a y,
and then I know an i In and I know
an a In as well, and I've met an e In.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Oh, I'm sorry, simply got the best vowel combination you do?

Speaker 4 (19:59):
Yeah, car when are you a fan of this names
on the doors?

Speaker 9 (20:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:02):
I mean they always spell mine wrong, so Carmen car Whin.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
Yeah, it's all right.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
It's it's just one of those weird things where I
don't want to talk to a shop assistant really anyway,
let alone give the name.

Speaker 4 (20:17):
And then I'm like, yeah, but.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
What if you did need another size? Would you find
that handy then, or you just rather go get it yourself.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I like and farmers. They have little buttons and you
place the button. They come to you.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
Bra places to a way when you're like bing bong cities.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
You don't want you can't exactly just walk out in
a bra.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
But also like the fit that they can come in
and be like, no, this is because fits changed all
the time. Someone did say, though someone's just texting. At
least having a name on the door saves you from
the awkward moment and they go how's it going in there?

Speaker 4 (20:48):
And you're like me ones around the two people go good, thanks,
You're like I was looking, it wasn't talking to you. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (20:57):
It's embarrassing though when they write how many you've got?
Because I've taken four of the same dress with me
because I don't know what size.

Speaker 3 (21:04):
The size is so stupid. Yeah, you let me eight,
the ten, the twelve to fourteen.

Speaker 4 (21:08):
Can I get the sixteen? Just to see if I
like an lucifer.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Yeah, I'm not against this, I'm into it.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Does podcast network, silly little pool, silly little poo.

Speaker 6 (21:21):
It is so silly, silly, silly, that silly little poo.

Speaker 5 (21:26):
Silly little pooly little poly little.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
Pole, silly silly little pearl. Today.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Is money a point of contentsian in your relationship? It's
one of the big ones. A Yeah, most common fights
in relationships. I just typed that looking at my keyboard
and didn't make a SI. No, no typos at all,
one single one, my man. The most common relationship fights

(21:56):
center on money, household choice, chores, slash, division of labor,
lack of affectionate intimacy, communication, and children.

Speaker 4 (22:02):
But it all comes down to communication, doesn't it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
I was quite surprised by these results. Yeah. Seventy percent
of people said no, it's not a point of contention.
Twenty nine percent said yes.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
Do you and Major Murray's fight over the you know,
the splitting of bells and no.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Sometimes he's like, you know, I want more best skits,
and I'm like, well, we kind of want to get job.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
You wanted to get a job.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
I'm buying all of your biscuits. Yeah, you'll never contribute
for biscuits. And then you go on a like overseas
trip for four weeks and he's just like, you've left
me with some stranger stranger and the same amount of business, but.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
I earned that money didn't I yeah, I know, but
he's your dependent.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
You've told him this is why you find like this
is what to f Yeah. Yeah, he's going to be
six in like two days, is he? Yeah, they just
grabbed It is weird.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
You're homeschooling them though.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Far away there lack socials.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
I don't trust the education system of Caven.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Gonna vaccinate I can't.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
Well, it's this way through law school, you know. Some
feedback on it. Let me said.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
My partner always thinks we're struggling and don't have any
money yet we'll have a comfortable lifestyle. And the only
money owing we have is a mortgage, which I view
as like a student loan. It's a fake debt that
don't ever pay off.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Couldn't agree more, couldn't agree more, couldn't agree more.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
It's just an expensive Fake's sit there, it's not real
fake debt. Well, it's not fake debt.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
It's not fake.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
You do have to pay it off, and if you don't,
they do come to the house. You now said, be
single way, less contention, but also less money.

Speaker 4 (23:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Yeah, well that's the thing you've got. You don't get
to split costs as much as couples. Yeah true. Oh
my gosh, Anonymous plays. It was one of the reasons
I left. My Oh my god, Oh my gosh, that's
great a segment, get a list, my new idea for
a segment, Oh my.

Speaker 4 (24:00):
Goss is great.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oh my gosh, new segment. Oh my god, oh my goss,
my goss, Anonymous please. It was one of the reasons
I left. I got sick of having to buy beer
and vape juice for him because he ran out of
money every week. That's one of his gross red flag.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
If one of you is bad with money, that sucks
and you have to buy them like any prioritize vape juice,
cinnamon apple juice. Yeah, random, You better off by yourself, babe.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
Oh my goss, Oh my goss, Miranda says, not now
that we have our own no questions asked. Account Every
week we get seventy five dollars for coffees and lunch
or I can save it or spend it on trash.
I love that idea.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
That's fun, little allowance. Yeah, no questions asked. If you
want to buy a Pokemon, If you want to buy
a Pokemon, buy a Pokemon.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (24:57):
I want to buy a Pokemon. You can save up.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
You can buy a Pokemon. Your money as long as
it sound if you're no questions asked account and not
our joint account measure no questions asked for account, So
just you know, what are you spending it on? Only fans?

Speaker 8 (25:08):
What?

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Sorry, it's no questions. Well there, you're about to have
a chicken snitzel for lunch. Once a week, I'm allowed
to have an only fan.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
I made a sandwich at home so I could have
an only fan.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Yeah, I eaten last night's leftovers because I want to
see some stranger on the internet's book phase. He said,
he has no idea what I earn. That's always weird
when couples are like I know sept and we've got
no idea how much, and we just pay the half.
Those are couples that aren't married right or haven't been
together long.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Maybe Yeah, I think after a while, you like more
or less legally, like I ever signed the paper.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
But the many together twenties have got kids and everything,
and their finance is still separate. They just put money into.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Finances, being separate for sure, but knowing how much they earn.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
Similarly, handy if you're planning on leaving that relationship. Just
a siphon that money up, you know, years before into
account in Norway, in Norway somewhere famously taxive, Panama or
that's what I mean, Switzerland. Yeah, uses a little bit. Yeah,

(26:20):
Ruby said, we have a finance committee, a meeting every
quarter where we talk about our money goals and changes
to our financial situation. Its punishingly boring, but it stops arguments. Wait,
so you have a meeting with your partner and you
call it that cointial committee.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I love that, so it's good.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Probably right off, if you went out for a meal afterwards,
you wrote off as you know, cater that. That gets
back to the communication. It's just key. Yeah, never has
been an issue in the last five years, but is
right now. It's tough times in our house. Mostly that
person anonymous that don't need that, but they're just letting
us know. No, mart says no, because I handle the money,
and he lets me because he knows I'm a frugal

(26:55):
queen and I'll get it done.

Speaker 4 (26:57):
Yeah right, we love We love a lady.

Speaker 6 (26:59):
This is we're both.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Harriet says, here's significantly more money than I do, which
means unplanned expenses aren't always easy for me. He never
makes it an issue, but it does make me feel uncomfortable.
It's a me issue, not a herm issue. I'm sure
he doesn't care, like he's with you right, like he's
yet the goodies.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
I'm expected in the goodies.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
I don't think sex should be financially financial transaction, like
can you I can't tune your tires?

Speaker 4 (27:30):
Can I? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, and then.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
No, that's just prostitution. But it's the Barter system.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
It's a consensual exchange.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Mmmm, it's prostitution for tires. Biggs says, only because my
partner has constant debts speeding tickets finds he ignores money
he borrowed from me. Yeah yeah, sort yourself out. After
many years of me having to cover the shortfall has
become frustrating. Yeah, Anonymous, please not when your partner does

(28:03):
very well off only fans.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Okay, what oh my.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Gosh, oh my god, my gosh, oh my gosh, we
need that. Shennon sends these. True, she goes through and
handpacks the responses to sell.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
It and on the anonymous when she crops out there
using it. Yea, for those reason, because we're just me.
Because she knows what you're like. He's going to have
a bit of a deep die and there's no questions money.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
If you hear me go anonymous and you hear that movement,
that's me leading right in to see their profile picture.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Yeah, because it's so tiny on your screen on the strain.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Yeah, she knows you're a piece, so she's croppings secrets.
Oh my gosh, it's okay. So I want to know, follower,
if this person's listening anonymous, of course, how much do
they make a money?

Speaker 4 (28:56):
Like do you see the content? Are you involved in
the content.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
And what kind of content are we getting at all?
A little bit amazing to everybody fans, I'm thinking of
starting one. It's just me having a pine again. It's
trying to split the g every time.

Speaker 4 (29:19):
You can't see it.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
I'm sitting at a table, but.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
You don't know.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
I don't think anyone's going to pay for that out and.

Speaker 4 (29:26):
I just let the geo get excited and you just
see the end of it.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
Anyway, there's lots of comedians that do only fans.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
But they don't put their bets on it.

Speaker 4 (29:34):
They just put like extended jokes and stuff.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
Content creators patreons. One way of doing it right was
it Patreon took more money than only fans and people using.

Speaker 4 (29:43):
Something like that, just putting jokes on only fans and
people are there for the tatars.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
You can You could do a longer RAE show. I
could do a lot lngery show. You're getting a cut
of this.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
It feels like you You're not weird, just all.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
But I don't want to be there.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
You know, I don't want to be there.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
You know, when you get in trouble, who's going to
slap a bit?

Speaker 4 (30:08):
I want to slap someone else.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
I'll slap someone. I'm not closed first hitting someone of
that embarrassing If no one turns up or buys it,
pretend it was a job. That's when you pretend it
was a judge social So we asked us a little

Speaker 4 (33:58):
Yes, this is amazing.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
This is crazy, Like I don't know how it does it,
but maybe it's not that smart. But I drive to work,
I listen to an audiobook and then sometimes I'm so
wrapped up up in it that I need to then
whip out the book at home.

books aren't cheap.

so where am I at in the audiobook? Because the
chapters don't always link, they don't always line up, no,
and so where am I at? I skim through the
pages that are wasting time. Now, there is a feature
where you can go on to Spotify. You say, you
click the little page match button which is on the
audiobook page, and you it scans the page of the

(34:58):
book that you're reading.

Nana's kettle. Look at this dryer like it's one of
those old Oh my appearance is nineteen seventy three fish
and pikl Pa.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
My parents have a dryer that they never used very
really and it looks like one of those dries. It
would catch on fire if you put it on for
more than an hour. From the nineties, one.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
Herald reader Rob showed his nineteen sixty five Sunbeam electric juicer.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
Oh wow, electric juicer.

Speaker 3 (39:16):
Yeah, this is Susan's Sunbeam electric cake mixer from the sixties.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
The fridges. You know, people just holding onto these things.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
Why not we told onto a really old fridge because
that would churn the power. Yeah, compared to a modern fridge.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yeah, yeah, there has been advancements. This fridge freezers that
Stephanie has is from the nineteen seventies.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
Yeah, that can be crank. I think Beeer's still got
an old crop pot, one of those actual crop pots.
I don't know how much has changed in crop pop technology,
but it used to be white, but now it's kind
of looking like like the plastics being cooked as well.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yeah, last thirty years.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
My mixer like eighties, mum says. The dry is actually eighties.

Speaker 3 (39:58):

But there's some people hold onto their like mixes, the
cake mixes and stuff because they just don't make them
like that.

Speaker 4 (40:13):
You don't.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
They just keep going catching aid that brand, you've got one,
They're amazing. That should last.

Speaker 3 (40:18):
River Yeah, but maybe maybe maybe it's an appliance. I
want to know, what is the oldest thing in your
house that you still use, you know, the oldest thing
that you have, But it doesn't have to be an appliant.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
Can people dub in their parents because I feel all grandparents,
because I feel like that will that's where the gold
will be.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
Maybe it's the beat that's the eighties, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
Like, it doesn't have to be an appliance anything, be
an item of clothing that you've worn.

Speaker 4 (40:42):

don't make things like they used to.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
Some Herald readers were sharing their oldest things. We've got
chest freezers from the nineteen seventies, Nana's mixing from the
sixties and it's all still going strong, still being used
every day.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
Hearing from anybody with an electric carving knife.

Well, so I don't feel like all the Some of
the electronic stuff you buy now definitely doesn't last as
long as it used to. All right, Oh yeah it

Speaker 4 (45:04):
It's like my two thousand and six GHD going.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Strong, still going, do you know?

Speaker 3 (45:09):
Because I think I talked about this maybe last year
that my two thousand and six GHD finally gave up
the ghost and I was like devastated. And then since
my parents moved and my mum's been using it and
I was like, Mum, they're blue and she's like that's great.

Resurrection.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
It's Christ and here straight in a form. Someone told
me recently GHD had to put out this thing telling
everybody about the advances and GHD products because they made
them so well the first time. Nobody's upgrading, and they're like,
I actually advanced that it's not as hot for your
hair and not as hot.

nineteen fifties. My mother's singer sewing machine. She got it
for a twenty first and nineteen forty five. Oh yeah,

don't touch it.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
An old toasted sandwich maker one of those metal ones
that you clamped together with a wooden handles a fire.
You're not a maker. You're not going to get the
cheese spurting out of that thing nose.

Speaker 4 (46:56):
You're locking it in.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
I like the sealed ones. That's the danger of locking
in the cheese. There's lava, hot man, and it doesn't
appear to be Oh, you've got it. You can't rush
into one of those toasties.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
Especially if dance put spaghetti in it too. Yeah tomato, Yeah, tomato,
very dangerous. My husband sharpens his grandfather's knives every month
we reckon.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
They're about sixty years old. We inherited them well, because
sometimes you see the old knives and they get so
worn down from all the sharp knings. Yeah, changes the
shape of them entirely. I still have my great grandmother's
whistling kittle. It goes on top of it. That's not
annoying for everyone else in the house trying to save
my whistling. I love it. I love it. Too. It
was a cheapy too.

Speaker 4 (47:38):
I'd love a proper rolled one, but.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
It was it one of the plastic orange ones from
the eighties or nineties. Plastic you remember those? Yeah, you
know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 4 (47:46):

the old whistling ones.

turn the handle to sift the flower. It rules for sifting.
You just don't everything in there in your crew, Yeah,
and it pushes it through the sieve.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
We don't crank like we used to crank, and they
we're lazy, just want to hold.

Speaker 4 (48:06):
We hold the sieve and we go. We should be cranking,
not just easy with those noises.

Three dear genuine friends. Aren't we lucky to have each other?
Genuine friends, have fun, support each other through the tough times.

And I think I will say that would be nice
to see Flitch fall on some hard times. You feel
we've been taking I was just about to say he's
been lifting us up, but then I've decided to take
a different view, and I want him to suffer some
hard time. So we get the chances to.

Speaker 4 (49:21):
About this and and Sam called up and Sam tick said,
I forget what we were even talking. Were we talking
about talking about producing carwhen the weird things that you'd
searched on a like.

Speaker 2 (49:35):
How to make it? As concerning that, I can't remember
what happened yesterday at four o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 3 (49:41):
It's fine, it's fine, but so yeah, what is the
wad of thing that you've asked?

welcome back, Good morning, Good morning, Sam.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
Would you we said we had you on the blower
or had you on the old dog and bone.

Speaker 4 (50:00):
Just when we.

Speaker 2 (50:02):
Talked yesterday about you are searching how to make adult friends.
This was a topic that really had an even resonated
with people like it.

Speaker 3 (50:11):
Was so messages the text machine went crazy with people
going oh my god, same or suggesting.

Speaker 4 (50:17):
How they've met adult friends. Yes, And we were like,
we've got it.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
We've got to dive more into this. And then we
were talking about the idea of step friends. So this
is if Vh's step friends. Sam, you are our first
project because a lot of.

Speaker 4 (50:35):
The time you make friends by connections.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
That's how you get it, like a step sibling you meet,
you meet someone by meeting through someone else.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
Because you're living in christ Church, is.

Speaker 4 (50:45):
That right, Sam?

Speaker 5 (50:46):
Yes, I am in krash.

Speaker 4 (50:48):
Did you move there or did you grow up there?

Speaker 5 (50:51):
I've been in crash It since I was about twelve.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
Right, long time.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
So we thought, using our connections, if Vh's connections on
the text machine nine six nine six, we might be
able to help you make some adult friends.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
Sam. Now it's some bit of a bit bit about Sam.

Speaker 3 (51:05):
Okay, twenty nine years old, gorgeous, never seen her face,
but I'm just assuming.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
This is great because we can play with thirtieth as
well with all your new friend. Yeah, it's gonna be
a bit, it's gonna be a big night. What does
what does a night like a good night look like?

Speaker 4 (51:19):
To you?

Speaker 2 (51:19):
Sam? You're a rager or more of a quiet night
at home?

Speaker 5 (51:24):
Quiet night at home. I don't mind a little bit
of a rave every now and then.

Speaker 4 (51:27):
But not a regular radio at home.

Speaker 3 (51:30):
So you just got back into your fitness. You love
doing weights at the gym, and you're oh my god,
you're trying to get back into running.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
I don't know. You've got Hagley Park there. That is
a beautiful one of my favorite spots in New Zealander. Now,
I wasn't gonna say it because here's no heals, but
it's because he's no helps. Because there's no help, Sam,
I did.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
A run on Sunday and I still have a sore
foot and a bad knee and I can't walk.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
And at her she didn't train for it, though, Sam,
I will say she's not exactly the poster child for
the right way to get back into running.

Speaker 5 (51:55):
I mean to be fair, Like I've done a few
half marathons, I've never changed for I just can't to
go for it.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
That's crazy, because it's important. It's important you don't say
that on when you try to make friends, because no
one wants to hear about the person that a half
marathon on no training.

Speaker 4 (52:09):
It hurts our feelings.

Speaker 5 (52:11):
Anyone wants to train with me.

Speaker 4 (52:13):
We like that.

Speaker 3 (52:14):
And you're also you've been getting into line dancing and
some crochet, so you're a little bit of everything.

Speaker 5 (52:20):
Yeah, yeah, no real set hobbies, just kind of you know,
dabbling whatever.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
I feel like this is a personal question and you
might not even know the answer, and it comes from
a serious I'm not mourn, it's about to be genuine.
Oh wow, Okay, why do you think you've struggled to
make friends as an adult?

Speaker 5 (52:37):
I think that, you know, kind of what you said before.
Friends often lead to other connections and other friends, and
I didn't really find my place in christ at school
and so kind of left school not in a friend group,
and then yeah, I just kind of struggled kind of.

Speaker 2 (52:57):
Yeah, yeah, and I know people because yet people move
to cities, don't they, And then it's it's hard you
might work with people that aren't your kind.

Speaker 4 (53:05):
Of title, your group of friends, and then.

Speaker 5 (53:08):
You do you know, my work's got quite a young,
fresh out of high school kind of vibe.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Okay, so there's not an age gap between us all.

Speaker 4 (53:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (53:18):
Honestly, Sam, I saw some like twenty year olds out
in town the other day and it's like, it's not
good for the soul to be near them.

Speaker 4 (53:24):
At twenty nine. It was terrible for the soul to
being near them at thirty six nine. You're kind of clothes.

Speaker 1 (53:31):
Well, we just.

Speaker 4 (53:31):
Thought nine six nine sex.

Speaker 3 (53:33):
If you're in christ Church and you you know of
a place, or you've connected with people as an adult
and it's worked for you, or you know of some
groups she's into line dancing, crafts, fitness, or you're looking friends,
someone just takes them and I'm king to be friends
of Sam.

Speaker 2 (53:50):
I could connect you now. There have been multiple messages
and you said you went to school on christ Church
and we didn't ask what school. That's really triggered people
from christ screaming at the radio. What'scottish go to? What
Scottish go It's consequential, of course it is, but do
we appease our Christ one school.

Speaker 4 (54:10):
I went to high but is that the one you
went to? Georgia?

Speaker 2 (54:14):
She went to Burns. She was a cabbage okay, she
was in the cabbage maths tree. No, as cabbage tree
is their symbol and cabridge. Sorry, someone's message.

Speaker 3 (54:24):
In, Sam. So many people messaging going away. I'm new
to christ Hutch. I'm looking for friends to Sam should
go to West Coast swing dancing should fit right in.
But a fitness but if your line dancing or what they.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Do fitness and okay, right, that would be great.

Speaker 5 (54:38):
I have to write that one down.

Speaker 4 (54:40):
Sam. Do you have Instagram?

Speaker 2 (54:42):
But you don't want to give that out because what
are some creepser connect Maybe we could do that privately
on the on the text machine, from the text machine too,
if yeah, we.

Speaker 4 (54:53):
Might get your filter on it.

Speaker 3 (54:55):
Yeah, because we don't want to year or someone to
come out to the rock Rolliston plenty of friendly locals.

Speaker 4 (55:01):
Oh that's just Rolison.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
No, she's not just going to walk around the streets
of Rolison being like friends danger.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
And that could work. It could work, though, I know, right,
we have so many people messaging in and actually Sam
saying Sam seems lovely. I'm keen to be friends with. Sam,
And I'm in christ Church, so.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
You said, I'm too close to my period for this, Sam,
the friends, Why am I crying?

Speaker 4 (55:22):
I'm in christ which someone said, and I'm looking for
friends too, Sam.

Speaker 2 (55:26):
So do you think a lot of people are messaging
in groups? It's like that's a good way to start
if you are looking for adult friends, because then you're
finding someone that has a common interest. Yes, like a
sports group, a hobbies.

Speaker 3 (55:36):
Group, yeah, totally, a reading group of walking over, a
running group. Someone said, Sam, the meetup app? Have you
have you experienced that?

Speaker 1 (55:47):
No?

Speaker 2 (55:48):
Is that bumbled but it's for friends. Some people did
yesterday mentioned it about that and that that's a really
good way to meet people because it's not dating. Yeah,
that's a whole separate kind of bit.

Speaker 4 (55:58):
Of the app. So there's a app called meet up.
They don't know.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
It's around the world, but it's also in New Zealand
where you can go and you put your interests and
then it will show you local groups and stuff and
then all start with people.

Speaker 4 (56:10):
Then you make it you make it time to.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Meet such Facebook groups as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that
would be a good way.

Speaker 3 (56:16):
Well, we've got so many messages and I think we
should maybe connect Sam up. Maybe Sam will get your
Instagram rather than your personal number, and then we can
send it to a lot of these people that are
messaging in and saying I want to be Sam's friends.

Speaker 4 (56:29):
She sounds lovely, she sounds cool.

Speaker 2 (56:30):
And then you can I don't know, go on, Oh god,
then you've got to meet people, don't you. Pub Olivia
messaged in, saying the Pilates Studios Studio Pilates in Sydnham
and christ which is a great way to meet people,
and she said she'd also like to be friends with
Sam because all my friends have gone overseas.

Speaker 4 (56:47):
Oh yeah, it's lovely.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Isn't it.

Speaker 5 (56:51):
Everyone's so nice.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
This is the thing is that everybody is wanting to
make friends, but like you know, they're in the same boat,
but they're not putting themselves out there. They're feeling the
same way. I will remind you Sam, even racists need friends.
Oh it's a run of filter's so nice. We're not
really asking questions, you know, when we have run. I'll
be friends with Sam as long as she's blonde here

(57:15):
and blue eyed youth in the max. I hope that
I listened to the show, Jump.

Speaker 4 (57:22):
Take it, take a hike. Josh messaged and saying, Hey,
I just want I want to be friends of Sam.

Speaker 3 (57:26):
I'm also part of this. I've just started Southern country
swing dancing. I just wanted to clarify that.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
It's swing dancing, not swingers who are dancer. Yes as well, Sam,
will we get number? We can? All right, so we're
going to hook you up and we'll make some connections.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Yeah, I think, And then we've got to follow up
Sam and see how it's going.

Speaker 4 (57:46):
Yeah. Yeah. If she likes for listeners open to try
new things, CrossFit d Day is one of the best
communities to be a part of.

Speaker 2 (57:55):
That's like recommending a church. We won't do it. We
separate church and state and cross.

Speaker 4 (58:01):
We do. Thanks Sam. Wait there, we'll sort that.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
We'll sort out those details, and I think we should
come in touch with Sam and see how this goes.

Speaker 3 (58:08):
Someone just message because obviously, like when you're meeting up
with strangers that we've got to be safe. Maybe they're
saying we can get the people who are interested to
get their Instagram and then to do a bob past.

Speaker 4 (58:18):
The Sam to do the S's actually great.

I was just gonna say, because the same quiz around the
country every week, that you could be ruining it because
choose and most of them do it Tuesday, but some
maybe do a Wednesday. Or does it change like it's
the same one. No, No, it's the same one weekly.

Speaker 6 (01:02:35):
Right.

Speaker 2 (01:02:35):
That place puts out one a week and they send
it out on Monday nights. I don't or whatever, And
it gets done on pubs around the country that week
and round one was turn back time. It was baby
photos of celebrities and everyone that came up. I was
immediately like, blah blah blah, I won't say the answers
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Had
an answer for you know, me gonna answer for everything.
Got to the end of it and the ponderous puzzle

(01:02:56):
came up and I looked at it and I was like, oh,
I've just had a message from someone say, ah, the
last year makes sense now. Yeah, yeah, it's just from
a listener, Thank you friend. The listener friend and the
ponderous puzzle. I looked at it and I thought for
a bit and I just said what I believe the
ponderous puzzle was, Yeah, puzzle, that's the condress puzzle is
really vague. At the start ten points and then every additional.

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
Clue you get, you get these points.

Speaker 2 (01:03:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
So I had a.

Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
Guess at what it was and then sat through the
answers for the this is whose faces? The celebrity was
nailed all ten the first round and it got to
the end and I was like, well, we should just
Google the ponderous puzzle. Yeah, Google had that right as well.
Then left. Now that was the perfect out because the
next round would not have gone that well.

Speaker 3 (01:03:45):
Apparently it's a different quiz every night except for three
questions that they post on Facebook, because otherwise you could
just go to every quiz.

Speaker 4 (01:03:53):
Oh ye, you could you go to do and just.

Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
Get it right and win the bar tab or when
the meat pack. So they've thought it does change you
very night?

Speaker 4 (01:04:01):
Does it every night? Wild?

Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
Eh?

Speaker 4 (01:04:04):
Surely some of it's a lot of work.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
Who was going around to every pub and like hustling
to win a bartab I guess you could literally drink your.

Speaker 4 (01:04:13):
Week for free.

Speaker 3 (01:04:14):
Work hard on the first week, Yeah, on the first night,
pay for that and then you're free.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
So no, no, no, they're onto it.

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
Right, they're onto it. The Great pub quiz Robbery. But
it didn't make it look like I was privy to
the answers beforehand, because ponderous and then that was the
That was a sharp exit and it was your nice
friend and press so impressed. Wow, wow it worked. Yeah,
but then I can't remember what happened yesterday. I honestly
think it's it's just full like you're into, Yeah, just

(01:04:45):
remembering things and like fact of the days from like
twenty thirteen and stuff. But I can't remember like a
schedule or like what I've got on tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (01:04:51):
As because you remember your own name and the name
of your kids. There, it's fine.

Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
That's I can remember and your number. Somebody said they
go to the same gym as I. I'm a respectable memory.
Give each machine a thorough wipe down after you.

Speaker 4 (01:05:04):
I stopped doing that, like after COVID. No you do.

Speaker 7 (01:05:07):
It's like your machines in podcast needwork plays it ends
flesh for In fact.

Speaker 4 (01:05:17):
Of the day, day day day day do do do
do do do do do do do.

Speaker 9 (01:05:27):
Do do.

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
We're doing Scouts, Guides, Brownies, Cubs, Pippins week This week
in fact of the youth organizations, and today's Fact to
the day is about why boys are called boy scouts
and girls are called girl guides.

Speaker 4 (01:05:45):
Why are they called girl scouts in some places?

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
They are? In America's girl scout they are, Yeah, because
when I looked up the American girls, it was said
girl scouts, and I was like, no, You've got that wrong. Yeah,
oh yeah. Well Robert Baden Powell is the envy enter
of the Scouts. He wrote a book and about scouts,
and he used the word scout because he was a

(01:06:07):
British Army officer who specialized in reconnaissance. Oh okay, soldiers
who traveled head of the army observed the terrain tracked
in him, isn't reported information back. That wouldn't be my
first job in the army because you'll be first to
be killed when you find the army hiding post. But
you do look good in the gilly suit, and there'd

(01:06:28):
be a lot of sneaking. There'll be a lot of
like you know, undercover year stealth, stealth, stealth operations. He
believed the skills observations of Bible tracking and sulf reliance
would be great character building skills for boys, so he
wrote a book called Scouting for Boys and launched the.

Speaker 4 (01:06:47):
Terrible title terrible writing this.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
I didn't even think about that terrible. Probably could have
gone with a bitter tis. Scouting for Boys, Yeah, kind
of described your last year's prey prow why you had
a compass.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
It makes all the sense today I'm feeling north.

Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
So but he was worried that the name girl scouts
sounded too militaristic for the social norms of the time
of the girlies. Oh yeah, sounds a bit too masculine.
So Girl Guides was inspired by the Guide Core of
the British Army, which was a scouting regiment, but it
was the idea that you were guiding others and becoming
role models. It was an idea to kind of get
them into the army life young, so that they were

(01:07:31):
prepared and could be enlisted. It was not really because
at the time they didn't expect World War One was
kind of on the horizon, right, but it did play
into that quite well. His sister kind of took on
the official head of the Girl Guides organization in nineteen
to ten, so it was a sort of a brother
sister organization. So yeah, they just felt it was literally

(01:07:52):
because scouting sounded too yeah, masculinely a time, and Guides
would be better because you were guiding it. Whoever, in America,
a woman called Juliet Low was like, Nah, I like
Girl Scouts of the U S so, and so that's
why she chose Girl Scouts. But in Britain it's boy
it's boy Scouts and Girl Guides, and in America it's

(01:08:13):
boy scouts and girl scouts and what is it here?
Girl guides, girl guides. Yeaheah, although I think it's changed lately.
You don't need to be a boy to be in scouting.
It has become gender neutral. Yeah, you can girl in
the scouts. Yeah right, because yeah, Juliet was like, scouts
is the way caller word than guides. Yeah, guides a

(01:08:33):
bit funny, it's a bit geidy. So we want to
be scouting out and about. So today's factor that they
as a reason in New Zealand and Britain it's called
the girl Guides, not the girl scouts. Scouts was just
a little too masculine at the time.

Speaker 4 (01:08:46):
Fact of the day, day day, day day.

Speaker 1 (01:08:57):
Dude, is there end podcast Network?

Speaker 4 (01:09:02):
Oh my god, I didn't see this video, but it's wild.
I'm going to watch her.

Speaker 3 (01:09:05):
Mister Beast is crazy, right, he just does the wildest things.
I was just reading this article and scrolled down far
enough that the next article was mister Beef. Mister Beast
slammed for trapping man and burning house.

Speaker 4 (01:09:18):
That's right, mister Best.

Speaker 2 (01:09:20):
As Fletcher's pointed out, and having been there completely, I
completely agreed. Mister Beast is just doing early two thousand's
radio stunts with a huge budget. Yeah, right, so the
things I see him do, the kids will be watching
it and I'll be like the station used to work for.
We did that, obviously not with this high production quality,
but we did something very similar like it's wild. Oh god.

Speaker 4 (01:09:39):
So this latest challenge is the talk of the town.

Speaker 3 (01:09:42):
It was quarter of a million dollars American, so like
half a mil Let's say, where this guy Grant had
to live on an island with five of his exes,
or not an island, a wilderness camp. Sorry, okay, so
he'd previously been on Temptation Island where he was there
with his ex Ashley, and he cheated on them.

Speaker 4 (01:10:01):
The relationship ended badly.

Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
The challenge originally posed to Grant was that Grant and
his ex who we cheated on, were to go to
a wilderness camp.

Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
Right, He's apparently had real absolutely lit up the proof
chat with a capital not a.

Speaker 8 (01:10:16):
Fan at all, Grant, No, he so Temptation Island basically
you go there to prove to your partner you wouldn't
cheat on them, and he had a very intense shower
scene within three days.

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
Yeah, so not only there.

Speaker 8 (01:10:30):
Was there was a night vision camera.

Speaker 4 (01:10:32):
It was intense. Wow, okay, yeah, but he's the worst.

Speaker 8 (01:10:35):
And then like played both girls and yeah, we don't
like him.

Speaker 3 (01:10:38):
I think you meant he was wearing night vision goggles.
Hard not to make out with the night vision it is.
So that's the premise, right that mister Beeast put to him.
You're going to go into this wilderness with Ashley or
ex so you cheat it on and if you can survive,
you win some money. Turns out no, four more of
his exes were also joining. So this man's now in
the wilderness with five of his exes. If they whoever

(01:11:01):
remains at the end of thirty days splits the price
money of half a mile. He gets a vote off
one x every five days, and so one of them
basically remains, so it's her and someone else.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:11:13):
Everyone was like.

Speaker 3 (01:11:14):
This is impossible, and they and you start thinking in
your own head if I was trapped in the wilderness
with five of my exes, how would I go and
why would it be?

Speaker 4 (01:11:25):
So? Yeah, scary and awful and terrible.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
I mean the ex is for a reason, right, Yeah.
Maybe sometimes it's amicable, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
But sometimes it's just not. And it got us thinking,
and I want to know it could be a bit juice.
What is the reason that you and your ex couldn't
stay friends?

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
I mean we're going to get a lot of cheating, right, Yeah,
maybe we are going to get some wild stories. Should
we have a little kickoff?

Speaker 4 (01:11:49):
Yeah, let's kick off a little early, have a little
pre load.

Speaker 8 (01:11:52):
Ah.

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
These are some messages we got when we asked on Instagram. Yep,
anytime I'm even remotely nice to him, he tries to
for six we've been separated eleven years, but share a kid.
But if I ever show him any nice of these
so I cannot be friends, I'll be friendly with them.
She dumped me the day of my aunt's funeral after
going to the funeral. I'll at least give it like

(01:12:15):
i'd get away five business days five business days asking
five business days, Yeah, establishing that as a show law.
Same with birthdays in any big event. Five business days
either side of a major event. Yes, yep stamped, yep approved.
He asked my close friend out immediately after we broke up.
She said no, he's now married to a different close

(01:12:35):
friend of mine. Oh, get a bitter game and don't
just add the same forensic give a Yeah, get bit
of friends, get bit of friends. But again, yeah, said
he cheated on me and then tried to get his
mum to win me back for him. Sorry, I do
love when it DoD sins his MoMA. Yeah, I love
when anyone sends their moment, when an adult sends their moment.

Speaker 4 (01:12:56):
Yeah, it's good start. We're going to have a laugh
about that situation.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
Well, keep your texts coming in nine Sex nine Sex
already getting some juicy messages you can call as well.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
Letch on and Haley Big Pod.

Speaker 4 (01:13:12):
We want to know.

Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
Right now what meant that you couldn't stay friends with
your ex?

Speaker 3 (01:13:16):
Yeah, there's a mister Bat's challenge where a guy used
to live on an isolated space to pack up sorry
isolated space with five of his exes and everyone's just
like I could not.

Speaker 2 (01:13:28):
One of the other Instagram responses was I can't be
friends with my ex he's dead, and then a shrut. Wow, ruthless, ruthless,
but not wrong, not wrong, Laura, good morning? Why what's
what means that you can't be friends with your ex?

Speaker 6 (01:13:42):
Good morning? So in my early twenties I dated someone
I went away quite a bit for work and it
kind of just naturally fizzled out, so ended on I thought,
sort of pretty good terms. He then presented me with
a scrap book as a kind of means to maybe
make me reminisce about our time together and take that,

(01:14:05):
and I started opening it. Some pretty cute things that
blued in A dollar is like the first dollar we
saved towards our future. And then as I slipped through
the scrap book, there was a little bag that had
his belly button limped in it, and he must have

(01:14:26):
been save it like he had saved this, like he
had already been saving it with cling mouth in mine
in the scrap book?

Speaker 4 (01:14:35):
Was it blue?

Speaker 6 (01:14:37):
It was multi colored.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
It's always always.

Speaker 2 (01:14:41):
Gray or blue, but that you wear blue and gray
T shirt, So that kind of explains that. I don't
know why mine's always blue. Yeah, it's always blue white.

Speaker 3 (01:14:48):
Yeah, did you respond to this gift?

Speaker 6 (01:14:53):
He gave it to me in person, and I don't
hide my thoughts, well on my face, I guess I'm
the same.

Speaker 2 (01:15:01):
I have some Yeah, okay, yeah, maybe he was saving
up the belly bettle like fluffed felt you a hat.

Speaker 4 (01:15:08):
He could have.

Speaker 6 (01:15:13):
Nothing, nothing he could have done with that. But I
think he could have achieved his intent, right. Yeah, nothing
he could have made or done with that would have
made me go, you know what, Actually you let's get
back together.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
That's so funny. Thank you so much. Keep your texts
coming in so many Nine. Six, I can't be friends.
He messaged my mom on Snapchat saying she was hot
on our daughter's first birthday.

Speaker 9 (01:15:38):
Hot.

Speaker 2 (01:15:41):
He had a planet mom. He had a planet mom
and his daughter vera snapchat. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:15:46):
Wow, the sleaziest of them all.

Speaker 2 (01:15:49):
Wow, he slept with my sister in law. Oh yeah,
that'll do it. LA must have been the other side
of the family.

Speaker 10 (01:15:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:15:57):
Yeah, Yeah, there was overlap that my new boyfriend was
not made aware of, so obviously the ex boyfriend can't
be around to ever tell him about.

Speaker 4 (01:16:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:16:08):
Does that end? Podcast?

Speaker 2 (01:16:09):
Needwork talking about the things that the reasons you can't
be friends with an ex.

Speaker 4 (01:16:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:16:14):
It feels like we need an event today and we're
happy to facilitate.

Speaker 2 (01:16:18):
Yes. Yeah, moment. Wow, I thought I bumped my microphone off.
Let's just head it, turn my slider up, hadn't Ah,
Why aren't your friends with your ex?

Speaker 4 (01:16:29):
Why do you hate? Worn hat?

Speaker 2 (01:16:32):
Don't hate? Don't have to play I hate the game.

Speaker 4 (01:16:34):
Whoa.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
We had to burst this together and he told our
clients he was divorcing me.

Speaker 4 (01:16:39):
Before he had told me he was going to divorce me.

Speaker 2 (01:16:41):
I'm sorry, that's no, that's not on. I got pregnant,
so he abandoned us. Okay, narciss is on your hands. There.
I can't be friends with the Max. It turned out
to be a narcissist and was caught cheating with a man.
We had a two week old. Definitely not on my
birthday list. Wait, so the guy this is a woman
saying that her cheered on and.

Speaker 4 (01:17:04):
He cheated on her with him. Yeah, fight the moonlight.
You know what.

Speaker 3 (01:17:08):
You can't fight the moonlight, but you should have seen
the moonlight before you're impregnated a warmer.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Yes, I can't be friends with them. Turns out he
had two of us on the go. He tried to
get us both pregnant, and whoever got pregnant Verst was
going to be the one who was going to keep.
What all I can say is thank goodness for the pill.
I can't be friends with someone like that. Don't call me,
but that's always a great one. But it turned down
my ex husband's request for friendship because he had a

(01:17:34):
revenge banged my mum when I left him. No, thanks,
chap mom doing? Your mom should know better?

Speaker 4 (01:17:40):
What's up mom? Yeah, there's a few of these. Isn't
that insane?

Speaker 2 (01:17:47):
He cheated on men, I took him back, so selling me.
Then months later he broke up with me the day
after his birthday once he got his presence rude. Well
yeah again, five business days please please five business day
side U. We broke up as I moved to London.
During that time, we both moved on. But when I
came back to New Zealand and ran into him, I
realized I was still in love with them, but we

(01:18:08):
both had other partners that could not be around him
anymore because I wanted to be with him. So you
love him so much that you can't be around him,
you can't be friends? Okay, yeah, okay. I couldn't say
friends with the ex because he was hiding in my
garden outside my window all hours of the night, trying
to get my attention when I said I never wanted
to see him again. Sounds that you need to automat
or sprinklers and a restraining order yees yeah, yeah, and

(01:18:31):
a sling shot and a bag of marbles. Yeah, well
they could kill someone, they could kill me. Well, I
didn't know I was a person. I thought it was
a fox. We don't have foxes. I thought it was
a burglar. Fear. Okay, I was trying to skip them off.
He's also intruding, so he might as well be a burglar. Yeah. Um,
some of these along and haven't had.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
A pre read.

Speaker 3 (01:18:51):
Some of them are terrifying, some of them are just
awful as well. Glass is really quickly pre reading. Did
you read the one that said that if I was
with X, it would be fatal for me because I
am the problem.

Speaker 4 (01:19:05):
They recognize yourself their message and.

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
Saying cheated on all of them.

Speaker 4 (01:19:08):
Now, I was going to say he missaged and that
was my assumption is I don't know the gender.

Speaker 2 (01:19:13):
Yeah, so I said, was very inappropriate with my mother?

Speaker 4 (01:19:17):
Another one anover would he just wouldn't?

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
No, But I don't think this. This doesn't necessarily sound
like the mother was inappropriate back, Oh right, just that
he was very right. Goshine, nothing too juicy. But he
owes my parents quite a bit of money from ten
years ago. Oh my god, goodness.

Speaker 3 (01:19:36):
Me three days after my sea section he went to
a golf tournament because the whole thing was just really
hard on him. Again when baby was four weeks old
and left us.

Speaker 4 (01:19:45):
Wow, oh gosh, s you've really does turn out.

Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
You've got to be quite pecky about who impregnates what's your?
What's your?

Speaker 4 (01:19:53):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:19:54):
Probably timely reminder for your old saying to get trotted out. Yes,
by the way, I don't know if I told you, guys,
but at of the year, a teacher messaged me. Was
it the end of it? Must have been a teacher.
A teacher saying they put it up on the whiteboard.
It's a quote of the day for the kids. Never
trust anybody ever, full stop. I was like God for kids, ruthless, dark.

Speaker 8 (01:20:18):
One.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
Don't trust not a damn pus well speacially if your
dad's going to sleep with your bloody girlfriend exactly which
was right?

Speaker 4 (01:20:27):
Wasn't It was right?

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
That's what they'll be saying. Podcast well ach Morn and
Haley podcast on iHeart Radio on the on my Heart.
If you miss the show, you want to listen to
the podcast, streams it in while you're in the office
or away from the radio. It's fantastic. But and if
you're up north, yes, with some of our radio broadcast

(01:20:52):
towers have been invaded right by Nazis and they've stolen it.
And so we're not broadcasting as far and as why
out north anymore. Now. We are doing our best to
get it the Nazis out, but probably there for good
until we can remember the Nazi. Yeah, it's hard to
get rid of once there, really going to get rid
of them. But you can listen on the iHeart app

(01:21:12):
now again another great fantastic KPI from you. Well, a
study has shown that phone calls while driving, even if
their hands free, if you've got the Bluetooth and a
microphone up by your your sun visor, or even if
you've just got your phone on your lap taking, talking
on the phone while driving delays eye movements by twenty

(01:21:35):
to one hundred plus milliseconds. It's so bad across all phases.
So they've done a study on this. But the great
news is that listening to podcasts, audio books and the
radio while driving produces no measurable delays.

Speaker 4 (01:21:50):
Fantasta, isn't that great news for this? It's great news
for the show on the podcast two of the three.

Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
We need an audio book.

Speaker 4 (01:21:56):
Oh yeah, that'd be the same though, wouldn't it as
a podcast?

Speaker 2 (01:22:00):
You release an audiobook where it's just asked reading the paper.
I don't know about that. It's pretty grim news every day,
so you could just find the fun stuff. So even
apparently hands free phone conversations interfered with how quickly eyes
spot and track objects. Oh yeah, because the brain networks
for speech compete with those controlling eye movements. Yeah yeah, yeah,

(01:22:20):
So when you're talking, it's competing with the eye, but
if you're listening, if you're listening, it's not the it's
not competing.

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
Yeah that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (01:22:28):
Isn't that interesting because I'm listening and I'm engaged at
the moment I start talking.

Speaker 2 (01:22:31):
What about watching something on your phone while you're driving
the traffic?

Speaker 3 (01:22:35):
Yesterday I was driving past someone who was driving like
sixty and one hundred zone, so I went to overtake
and they were slow because they were watching YouTube.

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
No, see, that's that's gonna concerning it. I wondered if
we could take some calls now, like what distracted you,
and calls an accident like was it a were you
perving at a hot person and rear ended someone? I mean,
obviously we don't want like horrific stories of.

Speaker 3 (01:22:58):
Yeah I took a life, yeah, running over a pedestrian. Yeah,
we'll keep those stories yourself, you.

Speaker 2 (01:23:04):
See, just keep those to yourself.

Speaker 4 (01:23:06):
Last year.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
But obviously, like you know, little like maybe a little
finder bin because you were perving at someone, or you
were texting someone, or you were.

Speaker 4 (01:23:13):
Like, look at does it not even in your car?

Speaker 3 (01:23:15):
Maybe you were walking and you rammed your shopping trolley
into something because you're you can cause.

Speaker 4 (01:23:20):
Eccident the car.

Speaker 2 (01:23:21):
Two minute noodles or something on the shelf. Wow, what
a deal?

Speaker 4 (01:23:25):
Five for three dollars?

Speaker 2 (01:23:28):
Okay, So what distracted you.

Speaker 4 (01:23:30):
The flee pod?

Speaker 2 (01:23:34):
I want to know what caused what? What made you
distracted and caused an accident while you were driving? Because
a new study has found that phone calls, even hands free,
the brain is competing with the with the eyes, the
talking and and and seeing, whereas the radio and podcasts
just listening do not distract you.

Speaker 9 (01:24:10):
Hi guys, the distraction wasn't mine. I was stopped on
the roads and for those who are on crist shoots,
it's one of the visiest roads in the Zales and
I just got range really hard from the rear, but
all the traffic was stopped. And met up with a
guy down the road where he parked over, and he

(01:24:31):
said a bee flew into his vehicle and.

Speaker 2 (01:24:33):
He on the accelerator. If you me worse than that,
I've heard of actual fatalities are accidents where bug's flown
into a car and someone's like what someone messaged in
seven five? Or bee flew up my skirt while I
was driving and I crashed into a pole. Buzzy fandango.

(01:24:55):
That'll drive you off the road, wouldn't that? Donovan' thank you, Kusia.
What caused an accident? What distracted you? Hi?

Speaker 5 (01:25:05):
It was my dog. She was sitting on the passenger
seat next to me. He was strapped in with the
little doggy seat belt. We were just in a bit
of traffic and it was just kind of rolling slowly
and I thought, I'll just, you know, give her a
wee snuggle. She was being such a good girl. And no,
the traffic, yeah, it actually stopped moving and I rear

(01:25:26):
ended someone.

Speaker 2 (01:25:29):
Was your dog? All right?

Speaker 5 (01:25:30):
She was absolutely fine. She was just having a great time.

Speaker 2 (01:25:33):
Yeah. What did you tell insurance cute dog? Cute dog
had to cut my dog? Yeah yeah, Cauzzier, thank you, Claudia.

Speaker 10 (01:25:45):
I wasn't driving, but my partner was. And we were
playing yellow car and yeah, yeah, yeah, and didn't see
a car coming down one hundred k road and he
pulled out and we got t bones.

Speaker 2 (01:25:58):
Oh my god, hee bone because you were too busy
discussing the car that you'd seen. Yeah, oh my god,
that was lucky. You could have died hundreds Claudia.

Speaker 10 (01:26:09):
Yeah, we were really lucky. We were told that if
we had been hit any further forward towards the driver's door,
then the car would have completely split in half.

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
And who won Yellow car.

Speaker 10 (01:26:23):
Ended up discussing that being told that the car was orange.
I was telling him it was yellow and he was
color blind.

Speaker 2 (01:26:30):
Now were you playing the rule that you see the car,
you punch the person, you say, spoto?

Speaker 10 (01:26:35):
Were you just yell out yellow cart, yellow car?

Speaker 2 (01:26:43):
We shouldn't be punching the guy driving. Drivers are excluded, Claudia,
thank you. Any messages about hotties distracting.

Speaker 3 (01:26:51):
There's a lot of messages about people driving past people
watching iPads.

Speaker 2 (01:26:55):
Which is terrible. It's insane. Yeah, my husband's mum was
distracted by her myth pipe and crashed into a ditch.

Speaker 4 (01:27:04):
Did think she lost the myth pipe or she was like, man,
where's that myth pipe?

Speaker 3 (01:27:07):
I think she was going to get the myth pipe
and fumbled it and was like dath pipe.

Speaker 4 (01:27:11):
Geez okay. My sister was all range of listeners.

Speaker 2 (01:27:15):
My sister was rubber necking, and I went up the
ass of a comp car. Oh yeah, we've never but
then was and understand that I was simply trying to
change lanes, but I was looking into my blind spot
and the cars in front of me stopped and I
just crashed straight. You're trying your best on. Yeah, I
got passed by a car while going one hundred and

(01:27:37):
fifty got klombas an hour in Italy, and the driver
had an iPad racing on a steering wheel, facetiming some
of them because towny, and he was speaking with the
hands and I was just immediately slowed down. I was
just waiting for it. Scary stuff. I was doing one
hundred kilometers on the motorway and a bumblebee flew in
the window. I had a lamp post on the other
side of the road trying to avoid it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:58):
No Blacks on No.

Speaker 3 (01:28:00):
A few years ago, I nearly crashed after I was distracted.
Look at the all Blacks and their jockey's on a
massive billboard because you're try.

Speaker 2 (01:28:07):
To see if you can see any outline. Ah, ye,
out any outline. Some of they are going to be
rocking a bit more outline. Yeah, yeah, the smoothie outline.
So you can't see late.

Speaker 4 (01:28:16):
Yeah, it's like you.

Speaker 2 (01:28:17):
Yeah, one's from rear ended, but what everyone's rear ended
someone because I was laughing at a car that had
been pulled over by a cop car. So somebody in
that cop left giving someone a ticket and came and
sorted me out. Jokes on you, jokes on you.

Speaker 3 (01:28:31):
Next on the show, what an open plan office may
mean for you.

Speaker 2 (01:28:36):
Yeah, if you're listening to the show right now in
your atwork and it's open plan, could be bad news great.

Speaker 4 (01:28:42):
Not great.

Speaker 3 (01:28:46):
There was a study from the Lincolnping University linkoping where's that.

Speaker 4 (01:28:53):
Link? Cooping link? It's literally spelled link uping be done.

Speaker 2 (01:29:00):
Yeah, it's doesn't it that found slightly more comfortable about
the accent.

Speaker 3 (01:29:07):
Oh yeah, scary. Yeah, that could have been Thailand.

Speaker 4 (01:29:11):
And no link.

Speaker 3 (01:29:14):
Oping University in Speedom ran a study that looked at
the way that we plan officers, you know, like open
plan or individual offices.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
Because normally it's and now it's all open plan, but
the boss gets an office.

Speaker 4 (01:29:30):
Yeah, like what is he doing in there?

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
So this stuffy is a lawyer in Hamilton?

Speaker 3 (01:29:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
No.

Speaker 3 (01:29:42):
So found that fully open plan officers where there's no
private spaces, so you've maybe got like long disks and
you've each got your sort of little bit or i'd
say our main office is open, right, there's just a
long disc.

Speaker 4 (01:29:57):
We're open. We're sharing a desk, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:29:59):
Because we're not an Oh sorry, yeah, we're open yeah,
open in that way, yeah totally. We don't have our
own individual booths that we broadcast from because we don't
actually like each other.

Speaker 2 (01:30:10):
No, we're open.

Speaker 4 (01:30:11):
It found that those open plan fully open plan officers
reported significantly higher incidents of workplace bullying.

Speaker 3 (01:30:20):
Now can you believe that too ugly?

Speaker 2 (01:30:23):
Because what it's just kind of it turns into a
bit of a roasting session. Every run's open, and it's
easy enough to make a comment to someone.

Speaker 3 (01:30:31):
I think that it appears to be because you don't
have any chance to get away from people. There's more
rub so there's no place for personality differences to be
like have a breather. You're constantly rubbing against each other.

Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
Annoying each other, loud people on.

Speaker 3 (01:30:46):
The people, lack of private space to retreat to, so
you're kind of acting out and you start bullying people.

Speaker 2 (01:30:53):
Like when someone rehits their turner in the microwave for lunch,
I'll let them have it. It's Georgia got I'll let
them have it.

Speaker 3 (01:31:02):
So a lot of people saying that the open plan style,
even though it was supposed to be to create community
and team yeah you know, everyone connected and social, has
actually just made everyone be really mean to each other.

Speaker 8 (01:31:17):
Not me.

Speaker 3 (01:31:17):
I get to work with my two genuine friends of
Fedty Boing Boying and loser four Eyes.

Speaker 2 (01:31:24):

Speaker 4 (01:31:29):
