Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the Zenian Podcast Network, The Big Pod brought to
you by Chemist Warehouse, the biggest brands at the lowest prices.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
I'm going to do my best to try to unpack
this because it's so wild to me and I was
trying to understand it yesterday.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
There is a.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Fruit fly, just a classic fly.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
One of the little ones, yeah okay.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
That has had its brain connected to a virtual reality
by neuroscientists.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
To a fly that's a tiny brain. There's a little brain,
the tiny tiny brain in they're just the smallest wires.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
They've connected this fruitflies brain to.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
A fruit fly smaller eyes imagining a big blow flow.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Little fruity.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Connected this fruitfli's brain to a computer system. They've put
the fly with the physical fly in the realm that
we exist in, in this tiny little place that has
a move kind of treadmill, so like almost like a
mouse wheel, you know, and connected its brain to.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
This virtual reality.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
So as the fly moves, it is now seeing a
virtual world. It is living inside of a computer world.
And because it's connected, we can see what it's seeing
in this virtual world. I'll show you, guys, but you know,
it's like living in this this little computer world like

(01:29):
imagine like a PlayStation game. The fly there and when
he moves, it updates what he sees.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
How fly is just existing in virtual reality.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
And this fly now believes it lives in this environment here,
so that's actually movement like it is insane.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Well, this is an argument that a lot of very
smart people make and a lot of people believe, is
that we are just living in a simulation, a simulation.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
So this fly is now and they say this is
this is so early, but this is now the first
step towards being able to upload human brains. And we
could be like the matrix, just lying in a place,
living within a virtual reality.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
But won't our bodies degrade without moving?

Speaker 3 (02:22):
Bodies will still degrade, and this fly's body will too.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
What's it called when you don't move and you atrophy,
h and you get saws and stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
That's why what the astronauts come back with here. Yeah,
but this fly is fun a treadmill. So when he
moves in the.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Right I was going to save this world.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, he's moving in his virtual world, but he's existing
in the virtual world and seeing it even though he's
moving here.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Okay, that's scary.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
So the scientists have done it to understand how understand
how brains process space and movement.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
And the reason they've.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Done a fly is because they have such abundant amount
of neural in their brain that it's like closer to
humans than we could imagine.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
And then they'll do right and they But then so
if we're living in a simulation, and we then can
make ourselves live in a simulation, will be in a simulation,
in a simulation if we're in.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
A simulation, so in our simulation.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah, we're gonna put ourselves in a simulation. Yeah. Where
are we now? I don't know, might be in the simulation.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, apparently, So this whole thing. When I was told
this yesterday, I was like I can't understand it, but
apparently this is huge, Like this is really big, like
breakthrough news in the science world, and it's yeah, it's
like it's absolutely and crazy. The human brain has around
eighty six billion neurons. A fruit fly's brain has one

(03:55):
hundred and forty thousand neurons, So.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Like, wow, when you squish that on the bench when
you're like one hundred and forty thousand years a little
bit of and you just like you wipe that up.
It's a lot of a lot of neurons, so many neurons.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, yeah, But because the fly brain is so tiny
and its movements are so small, they can map the
virtual reality much easier then, whereas if we like think
about everywhere we go, it's a much bigger virtual world
to create. So this is like this little baby step.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
It's pretty mind blowing.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
So people are like, if a fly can live in
a simulator world? And by the way, apparently this fly
is so happy. He's just having the best day. And
there's like little park world that.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
He lives some like oranges, little food and stuff love.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
That is a little handsy, What have I got today?
And apparently it's just like living the best life, and
they're just gonna watch them and see what happens. You
can map a whole life for him and add obstacles
and he'll just walk up to it.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
And maybe that's that's the kind of realization that we're
not living in a simulation because most of us aren't
living our best live somewhere. We're just kind of existing.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
And some days I'm like, this is a simulation.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
What a shit? Stem simulation? Download some download the patch
to make.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
It Yeah, what's the cheat code to make this day better?

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Fletchborn and Haley Big Pod from the Fletchborn and Haley
group chat.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
This is the top sex He's done it top six places.
Golum's hiding in New Zealands today, stop sex because the
Hunt for Gollum. The film production kicks off soon. Kate
One's let on her way back to New Zealand. Yeah,
she apparently will be in New Zealand from May till October.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Oh my gosh, you could come to my comedy fish show.
She'll love it, would love it. She'll love it. It's
on tour.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Maybe busy also back Elijah would as Frodo, Ian McCallum
and Andy Serkis.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
And potentially I was just reading Vego Mortenson.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Wow. Yeah, and so directed by Andy Serkis as well,
produced by pd Pja.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah, and I always forget that. Kate Winslet was in
nineteen ninety four and Heavenly Creatures. Yeah, the Jackson directed.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
It was one of her first films. Yeah, like one
of her earliest films.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
That was before Titanic. Yeah, Tantanac, which was ninety They
came out ninety seven. Yeah, so Melanaise.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Yeah, Melaneland skin Kate WANs So Melanie, so proud.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
We're so proud of your Melanie. She went on to
do great things. We are so proud of our Melanie.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
I love watching interviews and she still has her and
she's done so much American stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Well, I got the top six places. Golin is hiding
in New Zealand because it is The Hunt for Gollum
is the movie that come in to work on Number
six on the list. Inside the L and P Bottle,
It's hello, is there a door there? When you get
in through the get through the top? Okay, can't get out?
Screw can Number five on the list of the top
six places, and Golan is hiding in New Zealand. That

(06:59):
abandoned reading cinemas in Wellington Central. There was an earthquake
dealing with that. Oh man, so many boys at the
back of that cinema, did you?

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:07):
How many? At least three? At least three, at least again,
so many memories. So that was it was my cinema.
Three passion, three people's not that he's not impressed, but
it was a lot. You just made it sound like
it was like ten. That's a quiet Tuesday are Tho
for Fletch.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
I shagged one of the projected projectionists, did you yeah?
And in the room no no, no, no no, And
that time time afterwards we met at the back of
Reading Cinema.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
I always imagine productionist or old men. No, no, no, he
was a young man. He was a young fellow.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
He was a young fellow who was a prodictionist at
reading cinemas And yeah, okay, I've showned.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
An article from the fifteenth of December. At the end
of last year, a complete overhaul of Wellington's abandoned Reading
Cinema's complex is moving closer with resource consents lodge for
the project. The large earthquake prone building has been sitting
empty since twenty nineteen, often referred to as an eyesore.
All the pictures that the new one look lovely. Oh,

(08:05):
they need to do it, they need crazy. It was
twenty nineteen. I thought it was. It's been that sitting
vacant for sight. Go for a look. I don't reckon
it be that exciting. No, but something's been seeing empty
for that long. It looks like I like when you
see those abandoned mauls in America that have been abandoned
since like the eighties or nineties. Yeah, crazy, they had a.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
The CD store in there. Can I remember posts or
yet with listening posts? I remember the albums I bought there.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Yeah, ah, what a memory. Number four on the list
of the top six places Golum could be hiding in
New Zealand, White tom More Caves. Perfect spot, Yeah, perfect spot,
perfect spot for him. Yeah, gorgeous. It doesn't like the
sun water running through to pay the fee? Does he
will have to pay? Okay, the entrance fee. Number three
on the list of the top six places at Golin'

(08:52):
hiding in New Zealand. Gore because of the big because
of the big ass fish. He thinks it's edible. Oh
he doesn't love the rules. Yeah. Sashimi he loves. He
would love Sami. He would love Sashimi. Never got to
the park with the knives though, just kind of like
gnaught at it with his teeth. Number two and the
last of the top six places, Gollum's hiding in Alto
and New Zealand, up Mount trying to get his ring back.

(09:16):
Oh yeah, because that's the that's the mountain they used
for Mount Doom. Doom. You walk past it on the
Tonguedo crossing is thek this is Mount Doomnah, but there
I think there are signs like you're not allowed to
climate Mounta. You've got to stay a photo there now.
No climbing is like, oh check the ring from here?

(09:36):
Can I literally come all this way? It's been you're
not allowed to climb a day. I think people were
and they keep getting rescued. Oh really, it's I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
Did they venture off in jeans and jandles.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
You wouldn't. You wouldn't those tourists that we just went
into the Tonguito crossing. I mean, locals do that sort
of dumb shit all the time. You are technically allowed
to climb, but it's strongly discover, courage and considered. Isn't
it disrespectful? It's a sake, it's sacred to local marty
rangers and courage hikers to say on the main alpine crossing. Okay, yeah,

(10:12):
sacred manger and number one in the rest of the
top six places. Gollum has been hiding in New Zealand,
New Plymouth. He's been hiding in plane sight, just walking
around New Plymouth. No, it's right, and it's not as
methy as Mournsville.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
You're Methy Morrinsville. It's literally in the name.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
It's not. That's not Meisville. That's not It's literally called Methodsville.
Oh worn, I'm gonna throw my own hometown on the
on the fire. Got a roast New Plymouth instead. That
is today's Top six, Haley big Pod. Wow, this story rules.
This is a story about a man, a treasure hunter.

(10:58):
Shall we call him his journey. He's been treasure hunting
for a very long time. He's a deep deep sea
treasure hunter and also a scientist, an Ohio born research scientist. Okay,
he Tommy Thompson, perfect man, Tommy Thompson Thomas and nineteen

(11:19):
eighty eight located what was known as the Ship of Gold. Now,
this was a ship that was taking gold from the
California and West Coast gold rush around too. It was
they minted the coins and gold bars, and it was
going around the eastern side of the United States. So
I'm imagining it went down and through one of those
eighteen hundred that wouldn't have had the Swez Canal. Oh yeah,

(11:43):
how would it have got all the way around the bottom. Well,
maybe it went down and then trained across America and
then was boating the rest of the way and off
the coast of South Carolina. It sunk in eighteen fifty seven,
four hundred and twenty five passengers boats back in the day,
chronically sinking. When I feel like we need some pirate music.

(12:04):
Oh okay, pirate music did have some pirate music. Tat up,
what pirate music do you want? Pirates of the Caribbean?
D Ding Ding did live treasure living? What is Captain
Jack's This is called Jack Sparrow. No, that's the theme.

(12:25):
You want some adventure, Yeah, you want adventurous pirate music.
It's quite ominous. That was quite ominous. Yep, it's because
is the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing the main theme for
Pirates of the Caribbean. Oh, that will do. Then there's treasure.

(12:47):
It's all right. So it's sunk in eighteen fifty, four
hundred and twenty five passengers died and drowned. Jokes, thirty
thousand pounds of federal gold. Thirty thousand pounds of federal
How much would that be worth now? Untold amounts? So
in nineteen eighty eight he found it in a year

(13:09):
before I was born seven thousand feet and meters is
two point one kilometers deep. That's how deep this would
have was. But in nineteen Tommy Tom Tom, Tommy Tom
Tom found it. Now he had left deep. Why was
he so deep? Well, that's he went searching for treasure
and it was out there. That was why it was

(13:30):
so hard to get to. That's why no one have
found it for like nearly what one hundred and fifty years?
Did you say three thousand, three hundred No, I said
thirty thousand pounds of gold, troy pounds, pounds pounds of
my man stirring silver, twenty thousand, thirty thousand pounds note
pounds as in British pounds, pounds as in weight, pounds weight, Yeah, okay,

(13:50):
thirty thousand, you've been a gold coup came on. It
can't be more than ten thousand, okay, go ten thousand
all times a boy? Three? Quite quick, maps you were
dollars seven hundred and fifty two million times three? Yeah?
Whoa brillion? No, no, bion, no billion, twenty one billion,

(14:13):
twenty one billion, twenty one billion, okay, So there's twenty
one billion dollars two point one easily two point one
billion trillions, billions by three or exact number. Yeah, I'm overwhelmed.
It's two point one billion to me. When I got
something about the value, it's about the thrill two point
two five eight billion dollars. So there is two point

(14:35):
two five eight billion dollars. But they found it in
nineteen eighty eight. Now, obviously getting to two point one
kilometers oh, appirate music's oh it's just reached it an
ominous point on the music. Okay, So obviously when you're
going to two point one kilometers deep in nineteen eighty eight,
you need investors. This isn't cheap. Well, it was as
an investors that said, Tommy, where's the money, show me

(14:57):
the money, show me the money, Tommy, are you we
can't count? For over fifty million, he sold he sold
the some gold bars for fifty million dollars to the money.
They go to it and got the buddy buddy Tommy
Thomas and Tommy thomasin got the money, found the found
the ship, got the the gold car got they got
all the gold out of it. Yeah, and the in

(15:18):
this is like Tommy, where's the wrist of the girl.
Tommy's like, we're still in. It was word in nineteen
ninety eight. Why are we talking about this now, Well,
because it was in two thousand and five that they
said that had enough. And then like they started trying
to sue him because he's like, where's the where's the
rest of the money, Tommy. Tommy's like, I don't know
what you do about where's the money? Where's the money

(15:40):
from the stuff you sold? And he said, well, I
paid you back and they're like, we want the rest
of the money. We invested it on the We're all
going to get a slice. He's like, there's no more
and then I weez it all gone. He's like legal
fees and stuff. So they keep hunting him and hunting
them and hunting him, and then he goes on the lamb,
changes his name. They find him in a Florid at
a hotel and he gets aristed because he skipped a
court date. With two point two billion dollars floating around

(16:03):
out what's he got it in?

Speaker 3 (16:04):
Like, what's he converted it to?

Speaker 1 (16:07):
No one knows what except for Tommy Thompson. Do you
look to coins who has just been released from prison?
What he spent more time in prison than your average
American murderer year what for a business dispute, and they
kept getting him. They kept getting him on things like
so when he finished his initial thing for a breach,

(16:30):
they were like, well, now you have to do two
more years because you didn't turn up to that. Yeah. Right,
So they're just kind of like been trying and he's
just he's gone crazy. So I'll show you a photo
of how sexy, Oh, warn you've unplayed was just picking
up too. Yeah, it's and nineteen eighty eight. That's him
with one of the coins and he looks like a
sixy Paul Ride. It does look like a hairy sixty

(16:50):
poor rude, a hairy sixy Paul rud when Paul grows
a beard. This is his latest jail photo. The guy's
gone gold crazy. He's in his seventies now, he's just
been released from prison. He's never told anybody where the
gold is. Helen was a sentence wait for how much
gold is left? No one knows which, but they're just
like everyone that's done the maths, it's like, there's so

(17:12):
much unaccounted for gold. Where is that? Well, either he
got it at the time and hit it, or he's
gonna go back. So the greatest conspiracy is he's buried
the treason like a pirate them. I mean, so it
suddenly looks like he wouldn't be out of place on
Captain Jacksborough's boat without with that prison photo. And twenty

(17:36):
twenty two a ingot so that's a gold bar from
the SS Central America showed up at an auction and
it's sold for two point six million dollars. And twenty
nineteen multiple little relics from the shipwreck showed up at
auction and got more than eleven million dollars. So there's
also this theory that he's got somebody who knows where

(17:58):
it's buried. And every now and then when the little
top up of their pocket money, they go and get
something and just look like and just like release it
into the black market. What a wild story? How is
this not a Netflix documentary? Must be like it's God,
I wonder if if the story if it has been told. Yeah,
I don't know what was all secret? Incredible story? Any

(18:19):
movies about the recovery of probably docos. He's probably been
like little Donkos done and twenty twenty four a National
geographic documentary series called Cursed Gold, a Shipwreck Scandal covers
the nineteen eighty nine discovery and recovery of the go.
It highlights the expedition ly to Tommy Thompson and the
subsequent legal battles over the over There. It's all on

(18:41):
Disney Plus. It's all on Disney Plus. The ego put
that down for a week in watch Oh isn't it wild?
Like adults, everyone loves the idea of a buried treasure.
I've ever met anyone that wouldn't be excited about the
idea of a birit trip. Oh my god. I think
that's point Geokashing took off a little bit. Everyone's like
because it was kind of but like treasure. It was
Treasure Hunter, great storyborn. Someone's got to watch that on

(19:07):
Disney Place and watch Treasure. We're Buried a Time capture
on two thousand and nine in christ.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
I've been a part of two time captures.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
One's been lost.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
My primary school can't find it.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
It's just where everything. They can't find us. I can't
remember where they they can't remember where they buried it.
They have no idea.

Speaker 2 (19:33):
And they were reaching out to previous military school primary
kids to be like.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Do you remember, And I was like, no, what the hell.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
I don't remember. I think it was on the far field.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, I know, but then what what's the point anyway?
It just be some like shitty kids painting. What I
put it was jump.

Speaker 5 (19:50):
The z N podcast network plays z Ends Flesh one
and Haley. It is so silly, silly, silly, that silly little.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Can I give a quick shout out? Yeah, Chris and
Dave driving down to Wild Foods Radio Lovely on the
IHONNA app fantastic Yeah now claiming that the Doobie Brothers
are plain but I don't believe it. But anyway, drive safely.
It's three morales on the road. According to the Satnan
Good Weekend Weekend Now, the death of bar soap reads

(20:38):
the headline, Okay, good, Well apparently it's the millennials mostly,
and then the pandemic that well and truly put the
nail in the coffin for bar soap. Environmentally, it's still
the friendlier soap, right because it doesn't come in the
plastic bottles and people aren't constantly like buy a new
plastic because it's never cheaper. It is never cheaper to
buy a reefel than it is to buy a new
plastic line. I know, that and that goes across the

(21:00):
like coffee everything. Yeah. They they're saying that one of
the big reasons people love liquid soap is you know
what you're putting on your body and the bar soap
can bere but what's this made? Yeah, but then I
would the other way around. They in this article it
does say it's an Australian article just does say that
out of coal supermarkets they've seen a rise in bar soap,

(21:22):
premium soap, like people gifted or they put it in
the bathroom looking nice. So I like going to a
market day and someone's making their own really nice. You
go to hands. I don't wash my body with it,
but I will all if I'm washing my hands just
at a sink, I prefer a bar soap, but in
the shower on the liquid soap falla. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
While Sprowl's been on the prow the amount of showers
I've had in gentlemen's homes with that thin, slithered disk
of a bar is unacceptable.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
And I would get in the show and be like,
how are we still here? That's not good because that's
touched other bodies and bar it's gonna it's a pube. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
oh yeah when it gets real and it gets lost
than the pubes.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Yeah yeah, yeah you almost you got that tiny little
disc nub.

Speaker 6 (22:11):
Too hard gonna Well, we've asked the question today liquid
or bar so and eighty one percent of people have
said liquid over bar, nineteen percent saying Taylor, liquid or.

Speaker 7 (22:23):
Bar definitely liquid?

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Man, liquid? Why do you like liquid so much?

Speaker 8 (22:31):
Has a weird, like, you know, squeaky texture.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Use it. I feel like it dries you feel dry?

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Yeah, it's very harsh.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Yeah, well I call it today Taylor gets fifty bucks
free fuel. So congratulations fr Friday, No problem. Wait, they
will sort that out. Stay clean. Megan says liquid so wasteful.
It's mostly water in the plastic bottles, and no, for me,
it's a lot. You are paying for a lot of
water if you have looked on the ingredients. That's always yeah,
and splash in the water. I think where I go

(23:01):
wrong with liquid soap is I do too many pumps.
I'll pump pump when your five pumps, but then towards
the end when it's going and it's half a pump
half Yeah, you're like, I can wash with half a pump.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Yeah, But then you put a bit of water and
you shake it around.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Now I've got another week. Yeah, yeah, you've said you
can't get clean from liquid soap. It's not real soap.
What are you talking about. I've been using it for
like forever. Liquid it can't find your dad straight pubes
and a liquid soap, it says Joel. That's true. Yeah,
mouth says liquid soap for hand washing, bar soap in

(23:36):
the shower and the other way around. No, I don't
want to hand either ever. Totally lovely smelling art of
farm bar. It doesn't clean you. There's too many leaves
in it. What ground up nuts? And I like this penel.

(23:59):
You want some seed on my hearfehmuffmato tomatoes in there.
Gave him his full name. There soap bar user here
saving the planet with less plastic and it looks and
it works out cheaper. I get a delightful strawberry flavored
one from Chimis Warehouse show Spawn show spolag yourself. A
strawberry bar, se Reuben bar and a reusable washing pouch

(24:22):
is way more eco friendly and exfoliating. I've seen these
like an exfoliating glove ex that you put your soap
in the middle, so the soap never touches you, but
it floams up and you can wash yourself in exfoliate
the same time they're using the bar sides nice and
that would stop that thin slathery dis getting really jamming
that and the meat sounding. Yeah, the son of the

(24:43):
pub to the bar. Soap, liquid of course, Liquid of
course is asia. I want to be a supple goddess,
not a dry seckle. Yeah, so dry, Nathan. I use both,
but prefer liquid. Washing farm hands take some effort sometimes,
so juicing up a bar can be handed yere when
your hands are really dirty, your bar rules, Yeah, Kendle.

(25:04):
I hate when flatmates by a bar so it builds
up around the bottom of the shower and ghost gross. Also,
I for like a ninety five year old Nana, when
I have to use a used one both one one
wash with a bar rints off. Then liquid says Jimmy,
don't double clean, she's double soapin, don't double so dry
and she's dry. Gem is in a drought.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
So many texts and it's such a mixed bag, Such
a mixed bag. Love the squeaky texture. No, no, no
liquid only bar in the shower. Liquid at the base.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
It's a mix. So little Polo is what kind of
soap you prefer? And eighty one percent of you said,
give me that liquid?

Speaker 5 (25:38):
Does that end podcast?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Because she loves shout outs, can I just do a
quick shout out? Shout out to all the marching Girls.
It's qualifying day at Nationals today. It all kicks off today.
Good luck to everyone. Nerves will be racing. I'm very
sad to not be there. It's in Wellington. Marching Girls
is a big day, big day, but it's a sport.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Do you want to go to the march? Sorry? Just
have to It's do you want to go there? On
today of all days, qualifying day of Nationals. Now, good
luck to everyone, particularly my friend you're in them.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
Anyway, Shannon. Yesterday we talked about this and I'm like,
very excited to hear your opinion because you said to
us just this morning off here that while watching Age
of Attraction, the new reality show where people come together
and they don't know the age and they just date
and then they.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Reveal the age.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
While you were watching this, you literally put your hand
to your mouth.

Speaker 9 (26:29):
Aghast I have never genuinely reacted like that, especially when
you're by yourself. You know, if you're watching TV with someone,
you kind of bounce off each other a bit. Yeah,
sitting there by myself, there was a moment where I
literally went and I've heard myself make the noise, and
I was like.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Wow, the two forty eight pm yesterday, Shannon said in
the group chat, that says television.

Speaker 9 (26:54):
So I've watched so many reality shows as you and
I love the milk manner, the couple to throttle, the
really trash.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Shows, you know, and then the intricate workings of Hitler's mind.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
These are yeah, but do you know what I loved yesterday?
You would have loved the Shannon and Carwen.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yesterday.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
I was getting my nails done and the nail Sophie's
in a hair salon, and we started in Sophia start
talking about maths, and then a woman in the basin
was like, what about Brook And then a woman with
her like roots getting done was like, how about that Joel,
Oh my god, and we just went off. It was
like a perfect little goss.

Speaker 9 (27:26):
Well, this is the perfect show to gossip over this
weekend with your friends.

Speaker 5 (27:29):
So basically the premise of the show. It's on Netflix.

Speaker 9 (27:31):
The first five episodes are out people who are open
to dating from all ages, whether that's older or younger.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
So it's twenty two to sixty, right, Yes.

Speaker 9 (27:40):
They go on dates and they start like fully creating
a connection, start hooking up even and then when they
feel committed to each other, they essentially propose and say
I'm committed to moving to the next stage, and then
they reveal their age. Now the one that made me
physically put my hand over my mouth. We as the viewer,
don't know how old they are until they proposed. So

(28:01):
I'm watching along also not knowing. Have a listened to
this one?

Speaker 10 (28:06):
I am twenty seven, you're twenty seven.

Speaker 1 (28:14):
I really don't know if you're ready, but this would
you ready? It's sixty.

Speaker 5 (28:21):
They have that twenty three year age gap.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Wait did he does he even look sixty? He said sixteen?
He's sound sixteen.

Speaker 9 (28:30):
I genuinely, because I'm watching along, playing along, I genuinely
thought maybe forty eight.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
I thought she was thirty. I thought she was a
little older than she is.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
But you knew this was coming because of the premis.
You knew that the casting would be finding these people
that do not look their age.

Speaker 9 (28:49):
And I will say, it's all people of color who
age better and we know this.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
Bet are crack.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
Yes, they don't cram.

Speaker 5 (28:55):
So it is one of the best shows.

Speaker 9 (28:56):
And the reason I enjoyed it so much is because
it doesn't feel frivolous and there's nothing pisty about it,
because they genuinely are building these connections. It's not some
of them being like I want a thirty three year
age gap, let me get this younger woman. Sure, they're
all adults, but it is wild and I highly recommend
you watch it this weekend.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
I cannot wow.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
This is my brand of track. I'll watch the Disney
nat geo about the Hidden Treas and you watch this
because I don't still.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
And we'll compare notes on Monday. Oh brilliant. So five
episodes are out.

Speaker 9 (29:33):
Another one more coming out of the week after, so
we get to see where I'm up to. I watched
four episodes yes day. This is all I did in
the afternoon. Is after they propose, they go into the
real world. They'll meet family, they move in with each other.
A lot of these people are now dating someone who
has kids older than them, so this age gap relationship.

Speaker 5 (29:51):
He's got kids in their mid thirties.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
So mean your new mummy. Imagine if you're dead. I'm
going on a Netflix dating show.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Craik came and was like doing this and here's this.
Twenty seven year old will be like, Homie, stop it.

Speaker 1 (30:08):

I would have said, this is called club song? Is
that right?

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Club song? This?

Speaker 2 (31:40):
I would have thought that it was longer since they
released new music. But did they trickle out a few
sort of weird things?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
So she so cold? It's not all of them? Is that?
No had a falling out?

Speaker 2 (31:53):
Nicole scher Ye wrote the song with producer Mike Sabbath
and Teddy's Whims. Oh yeah, and Mike Sabbath has worked
with Titty Swims and co wrote Jewel Leaper's song New Rules. Right,

how they actually communicate and they can communicate.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
It's blind My podcast series filmmaker Kaile Dickens that investigates
claims that non speaking autistic children can communicate telepathically, often
via spelling on letter boards.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
It's absolutely outrageous.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
It's won where the award.

When I was younger, Oh god, no, there's a text
in it.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
I had a lot of weird, ghosty things happen. But
what I remember is visiting my godmother in Ireland and
seeing a small girl on top of a barn in
the next Paddict and she walked to the edge.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
And wh say that word.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
She walked to the brink and started kind of free
falling off.

Number of years ago? I worked at hung a free
station here in Auckland, and I was working a late
shift at one night, I first, about even thirty at night.
My wife came to pick me up from work. That
was the last one left in the station, and she
parked in the back car park, which you can look
through through one of the back offices through into the
lighted hallway. She'd see me espectually as I was coming out.

(36:57):
I walked out, came out, set the alarms, jump in
the car, and she goes, where's the other guy? I said, oh,
what other guys? She goes off this other guy, and
I said, what do you look like? And so she
described to me that was a senior sergeant at the station,
but she had never met him. And the thing is
he had died about a year before.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
But you'd said the alarm, So if there was someone
in there, it would have the alarm would have gone
off in their fleet.

Speaker 8 (37:30):
She said, he was walking along behind you as he
came out.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
Given did you tell one? Yeah, it is a good one.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
Did you tell any of the other sergeants at the
at the station about this?

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Well?

Speaker 8 (37:46):
Yeah, because there's at the station. There's a few other
things that would happen during the night, like some of
the other stuff like I'd heard the door open and closed,
but no one there. And also, and this guy was
always a bit of a practical Oprah as well.

Speaker 1 (38:01):

trying to clear out the area and our black cats

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Good morning. Welcome to Freaky Dicky Wingley Tingley. Friday the thirteenth.

Speaker 12 (39:58):
What happened, Well, my friend's mum died during COVID and
so we couldn't go to the Tonguey. So we drove
from Totdom and I picked up my sister and then
we went to the unveiling at an Upa which was
out in the country, and we weren't sure if we
were in the right place because there was only one
car in a distance on the fire side of it.
You sort of had to go through a gate and

(40:18):
then and then along, and we were getting closer and
I said to Lynn, I don't know if I recognize anyone.
Do you think we're in the right place? And in
the car, it was my husband's car started making those
beeping noises like you're about to hit something in front
of you, and there was nothing there, and so we
kept driving. I was like, oh my god. And so
we were looking out the window and I said she's

(40:39):
telling us we're in the right place.

Speaker 1 (40:43):
Well, I'll go one of those collision avoidance was in
front of her. Do they pick up ghosts? So the
collision avoidance systems, Oh my gosh, you know tesla's when
they see things like projecting and they show imagine think
at people have posted like Tiesler ghosts. Yeah, Emery, thank you.

(41:06):
I'll wait their free field for you because if recaller
today free field fifty barsssages. So many messages I love.
I don't want to read them all out because I
feel like next time we do this so these could
be freshies. Okay, you know, but I might read a
couple always. During the Big christ Jewish earthquake, our house
was absolutely wrecked. Everything fell out of the cupboards, the
Booksha has fell down, Everything broke, but my daughter's ashes

(41:27):
stayed on the shelf. They were the only thing in
the entire house that didn't get dislodged from the Shelvin.
That's freaky peeky, that's freaky dieky. When I was four,
my mum caught me in the bath playing with my grandmother.
Apparently she was playing with the bubbles with me. Grandma
had recently died as soon as Mum came and I
started crying because she'd scared Grannie off. That's freaky.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
Thirty years ago, I was living in an old cottage
with a bit of farm land around it. I woke
in the middle of the night to clearly see a man.
This was like my experience and a check standing next
to my bed. I sat bolt upright and screamed and yelled.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
What do you want? Within seconds he just disappeared.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
After some research, I found that the old owner had
died outside my room chopping firewood.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Do I chopping firewood? Heart attack? Yeah? He probably chopped
his head off, chopped his head off, slept and chopped
his head off. Safety is very important.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
We find him there and he went to go down
but just went.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
In the back of his heaw were a throat and
neck guard. MM. When I'm chopping firewood. We have a
haunted corridor at school.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
This is a teacher. I always tease the kids about it.
But one day I was in one of the rooms
in the corridor. It was late in the afternoon, the
kids had all gone home. I heard the piano playing
down the hall, so I went down the corridor to
see which Kurt had gotten in and the room was
locked and no one.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Was in there. Wait, don't pianos have the automatic thing?
That could? Some of them do very raw. My son
was playing spotlight down at the pond with his friend,
and he thought his friend was peeking around the tree,
so he said, I found you in spotlighted them, and
his friend said, no, you haven't. He was right behind him,
and he said, who's that behind the tree? And they

(43:13):
spun around and they were two little boys. Shut of
the tree, shut up, And then they looked at each
other and looked back. Were No, I'd never play spotlight,
I'd I'd just never go out in the dark again.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
I woke up and saw my grandma at the foot
of the bead. She lives overseas, and then she vanished.
I got a call from my family to say the
next day she's passed away.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Wingle, wingle, tingly, give you a wingle. Friday the thirteenth,
Oh my god. My brother was on his honeymoon and
he woke up screaming my name, and his new wife
was like, that was weird. It turns out at the
exact time that he woke up and screamed my name,
I was involved in a really bad car accident. That's

(43:58):
the connection. That's the yes were they twins tell each
ones they have land network between them.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
I generally don't tell people this because I'm scared everyone's
going to think I'm crazy. But when a certain song
comes on, I hope they tell us the song.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
When a certain.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Song comes on, or sometimes when I'm in the bathroom,
I get a very washed out feeling, go blind and
I see a woman with dark curly hair standing at
the bottom of a set of steers. I nearly passed
out and I feel sick and dry reached for about
half an hour afterwards.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
It happens quite often.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
When it's happening, then it won't happen for a month
or two. It only happens start.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
It only started.

Speaker 2 (44:32):
Happening after my second kid, when I was pregnant with him,
and it took me a very long time to figure
out what the song was playing in the background and
what triggered it.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Was it pet Bull? Yeah, dude, mister world Wide, it's
mister And she's down the bottom of the stairs because
she's like, I've gotta get up to this club because
it's kind.

of that brown woman and aircraft and Guinness things. And
I mean I'm predictable really because there was no Guinness
or aircraft on that. For you, Paige, you just showed us.

(49:21):
It was interesting. Crazy. I just saw a lot of
brown skin. So what's bash the lob, the long bob?
A lot okay?

Speaker 2 (49:29):
Because Margot Robbie was at the Chanelle Autumn Winter and
she's chopped.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
Off her hair, the lob. She's back.

Speaker 2 (49:36):
She was wearing like a very simple outfit and the
talking point was her hair, traumatic long bob with a
wispy fringe, and our hair experts are saying it is
the return of the lob. The long bob we're doing
it because we did short bobs for a while and
the Mermaid here for ages and we were like, what
are we doing the lob?

Speaker 1 (49:53):
Is this the rachel that Jennifer Anderson? What was that one?
That was the rachel? That was just the rape?

Speaker 2 (50:01):
I'd say it was longer. That's set on the shoulders.
I say lob sits just above the shoulders, just about touching,
just about touching.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
It's what moms get when they have kids and they
don't want long hair anymore because the kids are putting
plato on it. But I'm not giving up completely.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Do you know Here Stylus was saying people often they
often have people coming to them asking for a lobb
or a bob or a lob during periods of personal change.
You know when you're just like, you know what, I'm
cutting it all off. I'm starting again.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
Love that. Well, yeah, it's back. Just before we go
into the air break and come back. The nation trusts Vaughn,
I trust born with my life, Flitch with my cat,
and Hi Haley have for the wake, Tennessee. We'll be
giving it to you so brilliant. I mean that makes

(50:54):
you the fun one though.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
A Now to get the fletch worn and Hailey Big Pod,
Friday Flashbuck Flash.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
And we're giving it him a free fuel because it's
free fuel. Friday's run, she was on air. Give her
some fuel, Give the girl some gays. There's so much
to say about the song I want to play for
Friday Flash, but we first of want to thank the
nation for putting their trust in me, even though they
didn't pick a banger. What song you were playing fifty
years old? I didn't, I didn't. I googled what movies
has a song been? And it's been in Madagascar, Escape

(51:27):
to Africa, Madagascar three years. Almost wanted Kung Foo Panda
four Madagascar penguins in a Christmas caper. How does it mean?
So many Madagascar movies Madagascar paid to feel fee and
they could use it. One thing I used this week
sad news are the guy who's been the lead singer
since two thousand and seven passed away after a long battle.

(51:50):
Guy I didn't even do the original song, original original
lead singer we lost in two thousand and seven, and
then this guy became the lead singer and now right
he was like a massive fan of the band, and
they did like this trying to find a new lead singer,
and he was like, put his hand up, give that
a redot, go and became the lead singer of Wow, Okay,
one thing. It's been as you said, And it was
a downloadable for rock band YEP, Guitar Hero, whatever game,

(52:13):
guitar Hero, YEP. You could play it there. And I
had no idea that the guitar in the song influenced Nirvana.
Smells like teen spirit. Oh, I don't know, admitted right,
You wouldn't admit that these days, you'd be so no.
They would have come from would have come from Let's
see got to another fifteen on the New Zealand charts

(52:34):
in nineteen seventy six when I was released This is
all of a sid Is this the oldest song we've
ever played? From Friday? Flat out there? The more than
a Feeling, the least one and Haley Big Pod, it's
your Friday Flash bet Yep, you're on CITM. You're sorry,

(52:57):
Sam who works here, who just woke up? Look on
the radio, Panet, You're all right. And the reason we
are you play that song varn is because he died
this well. S U Lengthy a betterle with brain cancer,
had a billion streams on Spotify, which is impressive considering
it came in a nineteen seventy six. Yeah, well, beerful
spot for me to be involved, stay neutral, I'll stay

(53:21):
usual on the do your own horn.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
Okay, I'm going to go through them fast because the
text machine is on fire today.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
Six songs to start the.

Speaker 3 (53:28):
Day, Banger songs.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
Songs like this is the reason I listened to you.
Absolute Banger knew we could trust the deliverer. Um, okay,
I read that one. Where's it Friday?

Speaker 11 (53:41):

Speaker 1 (53:41):
I was on Channel next for a second.

Speaker 2 (53:43):
Great start for Friday morning. Yes to this. This has
awakened my thirty eight year old body. Thank you, Absolute Banger.
Trusting Vorn was more than a feeling. I knew we
could pull it off. This song is ship from a nine.

Speaker 1 (53:56):
Year old Blah blah blah Friday flashback lifted my spirits.
Tune You've gone too far, Someone have gone too far?

Speaker 2 (54:05):
Awesomeville and the Postman just set another Aramax van on fire.

Speaker 1 (54:11):
Yeah, because I'm the Postman, I'm not aram You can
trust me.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Holy f great song. Day, May Banger Postman delivers again.
Absolute Banger brings back some fun guitar hero memories.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
What a banger, Thank you Vaughan.

Speaker 3 (54:24):
One of my favorites of all time. Well done for.
And then the last we've got to suck at Fletch.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
We've got to suck it. Somebody said they taught their
six year old intricacies of ear guitar during that and
that was way more fun than time. It is a
great eg guitar. It's a great guitar right well, quarter
past eight now.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
You may remember we spoke to Sam from christ Church
last week who mentioned that just in passing that she
was having trouble making adult friends and it is a
hard thing to do. And we ended up getting sand
back on the phone and asking people in the Crash
of Cheria where to go to make friends, what are
the clerebs that people are joining, and the fun activities

(55:06):
and stuff, and we sent them Sam's way. Yeah, and
then we've got a message in from Mikayla who joins
us on the phone.

Speaker 1 (55:14):
Him Michayla.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Kates ing today but also it's Friday. Yeah, So Michayla
you live in Todhunger, Yes, the beautiful.

Speaker 3 (55:31):
You are thirty years old and you have mentioned you're
a Capricorn.

Speaker 1 (55:33):
For those that for those that like to Tuesday new
friends via star signs.

Speaker 13 (55:39):
So you are not really just you know, some people
can be particular about the people they choose.

Speaker 1 (55:46):
Yes, it's good to know. Just throwing it out there.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
You moved from Auckland to tot Hunger. What what was
the impetus for the move?

Speaker 13 (55:55):
So, funnily enough, my nursing degree, So Auckland has kind
of walked and cutting it for what I wanted. And
then I went down to the beautiful Hypatani where they
have a nursing campus at study Why I'm on a
bit of a shout out there, and yeah, basically fell
in love with how they did everything. It's co poper mildi,

(56:18):
which is hugely important to me. I mean, yeah, basically
just made the decision to pack up and go get
my degree and love that a beautiful day.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
So moving, have you found it hard then to make
adult friends, because this is what we found earlier in
the week talking to Sam. It's just that people finding
it so hard. Yeah, it is.

Speaker 13 (56:38):
I mean, I'm not going to take away the fact
that I've got beautiful friends from my degree. But when
I moved from Auckland, my best friend at the time
said you shouldn't make this move. You're going to lose
all of your friends, and all of a sudden I
found myself quite friendless.

Speaker 2 (56:55):
It does happen because it's just so hard, like when
friends move away, right, You're always like, no, no, will
be all good. But life just gets busy and busy
and busy. And you've got a partner, right, so, and
you're studying, so there's a.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
Lot going on. So you're still studying, Mikayla.

Speaker 13 (57:10):
No, so I've beenishuying. So I've been a registered note

down here.

Speaker 13 (57:35):
Oh so thanks to my dad being a plethora of
trivial knowledge but of a bit of a cross the
board kind of person.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
Yes, I'm thinking this could be the thing if somebody's
had one of their pub quiz members move away. Yeah,
the great and how hard.

Speaker 13 (57:54):
It is to get into pub quizzes around total Man like,
they're so booked in advance, it's not even funny.

Speaker 5 (57:59):
Really really yeah, maybe.

Trying to get a tape. No, but some of them
can be quite competitive, and it's like all the workplaces
do it as a regular thing. Yeah, but well you
maybe someone second they need a new you know, a
team member to fill.

Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
I feel like I've stopped talking about it, and I
want to bring it back a kilometer. This runs a
lot of men.

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
Yeah the girl meth ain't methon on this one. But
on a Sunday, just gone, I ran the Round the
Bays an eight point.

Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
Five since retired from running over.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
And since retired from running, yesterday was my first like
proper heavy day back at the gym because I till
then couldn't walk. I saw so sore. I didn't train,
I didn't stretch pre or post. I took the purse
out of it and I paid the price.

Speaker 1 (01:02:30):
I met you at the pub afterwards, warmed down.

Speaker 2 (01:02:33):
A couple of guinness and ended up ubering home and anyway,
I thought the journey was complete. I announced very formally
and even at the Round the Bay's Instagram saw and
they said see you next year, and I said, no, thanks,
I'm have you ever seen me register again?

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
Remind me yet? I hated this, but I did get
an email cross.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
My desk yesterday last chance to buy the official photos.
Now I missed the first chance. I didn't see them, but.

Speaker 1 (01:03:00):
The do you know what?

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
Oh screenshot because I'm not going to buy them because
I know I oh, I am.

Speaker 1 (01:03:07):
I'm willing to put myself into noodles next week for
a couple of days before to have coffee of so
everyone gets to see it. Do you know what? Just
thinking we've own that billboard out dear, I just think
like we've got and it feels like it's underutilized. And

(01:03:31):
I've just feeling we've got that big screen in the foy,
that big screen. It would just be like sometimes waste
it and no one gets to see these photos. Yeah,
it would be the photograph. I paid how much I
don't know how much. I don't care how much, how
much one hundred bucks I'll pay it.

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
So they sent me the and they give you the file,
but it's got marathon photos written all over.

Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
Okay, if if we put up the photo, can have
the marathon photos watermark because I love when people post
their running photos on line.

Speaker 2 (01:04:04):
As a screenshot, so you may remember that. Because I
did have to walk about like every every now and then,
I'd had a five hundred meter stroll, but I could
see the official photographers. So when I saw the photographers,
I'd get a sprint on, big smile and like all
of that, and I thought I was absolutely nailing it.

(01:04:26):
There's a photo of my dad in nineteen eighty nine,
the year I was born, finishing a marathon. He looks handsome,
he looks like dashing. It's like brilliant. I was like,
it's gonna be great to have a photo like.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
My generational generational sh nothing was showing the boys, nothing
but she pain there. Look why sorry, I am suffering?

(01:04:57):
How did they do it? Do they? Is it the numbers?

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Number?

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Okay, here's one. He's another one. I'm just strolling. You
walk and that yeah that's not walk. That les running,
no elevation and all those photos are twenty dollars. Come on,
that's money. That's great money. There's one. There's one, the
one where I was posing, should I should we just

(01:05:21):
buy it now with my credit cards? Get that? Get that.
That's a good one, but we're not doing that one
that as triumphant. All that you still don't look you
is just bringing the work credit card. There were excellent,
got that excellent, fantastic. I'll be buying that. So stay

(01:05:43):
tuned for this photo, dear listener, because we're paying for
it now.

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
Crashing it out. Oh yeah, there is no joy to
be found.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
God, you don't look happy in that one either, say
as well, wrong choice a short, so prepare for a
bit of camel tooe as well. They're just.

Speaker 10 (01:06:03):
Fact of the day, day day day, day do.

Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
Do do? Guide, Scouts, Cubs, Pippins, Brownies week here at
fact of the day youth organizations. Yes, and today I
thought we'd touched on something that's that's synonymous with these organizations.
Badges not badges, not the small creatures. I love badges too,

(01:06:37):
they're up there for me. I would love a taxi
to badger head like that'll be a real I was.
Can you keep an eye out for a text too
Can on your journeys? Oh there's plenty of those around there.
We should have come across you. Why do you want
to text too Can? Because they were the animal with
Guinness and so I want to get one and then
balance a Guinness pint on its beak like they did

(01:06:58):
in the advertising, and put it on a wind weather
veon and have a real life one. That's just a
little personal bucket list item my mind that I've decided
in the last thirty five minutes years these other things
you should probably prioritize. Nop think, Nope, it's called a
mortgage my mental health. You can even that. Two gun's
gonna drag me out of the depth. Okay. So I
thought we'd cover the rarest badges. Okay that these Scouts

(01:07:22):
give about the weirdest, the moist most unique badges. In
the nineteen fifties, if you were a Scout, you could
complete your Atomic Energy Merit Badge. During the Cold War
nuclear boom, the Boy Scouts of America introduced the Atomic
Energy Merit Badge. To get this badge, you had to
understand nuclear vision, radiation detection, atomic power plants are nuclear medicine.
In the day, they were all about the nuclear ones.

(01:07:44):
It still exists today. It's been renamed the Nuclear Science Badge.
And there was a pigeon raising badge where you had
to breed pigeons, train homing pigeons, care for their lives,
and understand how pigeons navigate long distances. It disappeared as
the hobby declined. People aren't keeping pigeons. As a grave
digging merit badge, okay, the community skill, especially in small
towns where volunteers helped maintain cemetery, Scouts would learned how

(01:08:06):
to mark and measure graves, dig them. Burial etiquette and
cemetry maintenance didn't last long. It was a bit grim, yeah,
but grim all right. The salesmanship badge was where scouts
which wold how to sail sell things. To get the badge,
you had to make a sales pitch, demonstrate the product,
understand profit margins and closing a deal. Okay, bizarre. The

(01:08:26):
bugling merit badge one was to learn how to play
a bugle. You had to look trumpet yep, you had
learned wake up calls, the meal songs and lights out right.
A rare one, a hard one to get, and the
one I thought I'd finish on was the nineteen to
eleven badge of the sturgeon fishing Merit badge, only available
for a very short time. They had to catch a sturgeon,

(01:08:47):
which is a press sorret fish, a very old fish.
There were there were only living certain rivers, very difficult
to catch. Very few scouts had completed it, and then
the badge was canceled. So apparently, if you've got a
sturgeon fishing, are there any modern badge? Is now? Like
posting to Instagram like flights post five reels get a
hundred likes? What like a social media badge would be
keeping keeping the scouts off sort of the media. Yeah,

(01:09:11):
you've got to promote the scouts, don't you to externally
promote the skin? You said there was a business one there. Okay,
So there's a game design merit badge that's understanding how
to not to make a video game, programming computers, robotics,
digital technology, animation, drone skills badge, and a genealogy merit badge.

(01:09:36):
Will you have to use online databases to trace your
ancestry and understand the dinner How DNA testing works amazing?
So you can still get all these badges. So today's factor,
there's the rarest badge and the Scout badge collectors is
the nineteen eleven sturgeon fishing badge. Fact of the day,
Day Day day day do do do.

Speaker 4 (01:10:04):
Dud dude flitch Haley, I went to a dance at him.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
You can take through nine six nine sex. When did
the doctor get it wrong? And they are only human?
No disrespect to doctor, No, absolutely not including out but
with us coming and being like a I told me
I googled, I'm dying my Encyclopedia Britannica. Yeah, do you
think doctors had an Encyclopedia brittann Okay, like be really interested,

(01:10:33):
took to adopted that existed before the internet, Like what
was your Yeah, who you're dealing with? Back then? It
would have been the Encyclopedia Britannica. I've been to the
public library. I was on the microfiche. There's a wild
story from Canada Stephanie Fairer if a u are e,
how would you say that? Exactly? Okay? Can Stephanie stephany

(01:10:54):
for she's at a hell of a time. Fourteen months
earlier she had brain tumor, so doctors opened up her skull,
removed the tumors and then put metal plates back in
her head. So what do they call that? Crannyotomy? Again,
I'm not a doctor, I wouldn't know. You guys are

(01:11:14):
doctor soyo a crannyotomy. Yeah, correct, doctor. I performed one
or two in my time, but time intensive and I
had to get away to the bed. I'm more leg based.
I'm imagining she'd beep every time she went through the
metal detector of the have a little metal certificate, yep.
So anyway, the Sunday just gone. There's a little bump

(01:11:36):
on her head and she's like, oh, that's kind of
like it's odd a little bump. So she went to
the doctor and she's like, what's going on there? Yeah,
She's like, I think when of her screws is coming
out of because you know, they screw it into your
skull metal plates. And the doctor's like, no, you're fine,
go home. It's just probably assist or something. And that's

(01:11:56):
when her boyfriend has a closer log and just pulls
this screw out of her head and screw out of
her head? Does he make? So they went home and
the boyfriend used a pair of tweezers to pull the
screw and the screw it unscrewed itself. What's that The
screw unscrewed it. She definitely wanted to come out, she said,

(01:12:18):
almost laughing. It was moving as the day when so
it wasn't too hard to remove by that time. And
it's tiny, like it's not a screw like that you
put into a wall into a wall. It's like really
it's millimeters. So you'd have to use that that screw
driving it out of you Christmas crackers, which every year
those away those rules like have you ever taken screws

(01:12:41):
out of a laptop or some tiny electronics thing. It's
kind of a screw that size, and there's a photo
of it. It's some tiny silver screw smaller than a thumbnail,
the kind that holds a titanium plate into a human skull.
And yeah, so and the doctors are like, now your fine,
go home, boyfriend, just get a little bit of threadlock

(01:13:01):
and we'll get that screw back in that blue goo.
You put the whole screws up on that blue goo.
That makes screws goull screw screw to There was a
streadlock through rules, man, because you know you've always got
some loose screw and it keeps. I've got some. I'll
bring it in because you don't even need a couple
of drops of old mates used to put like match

(01:13:22):
sticks into like a hole there was if you were
screwing into wood and it was loose. Yeah, my dad
packs it out with match sticks and snaps them off.
You wouldn't want to leave the fiery bit on it.
Just well, anyway, we're not taking calls. How did you
fill a loose screw? Hole? We want could be the better?
How did you fill a loose screw? No, we want

(01:13:44):
to know this. When did the doctor get it wrong?
Like this doctor just said to them go home, you're fine,
and they a screw came out of your head. That's
good wild, So I went hundred dancing and would love

He got injured in rugby when he was eight and
we took him to White Cross thinking that he had
like a broken rib or something. They then transferred him
to the hospital thinking he had a punctured lung. So
we got the ultrasound screen to come in and they
couldn't find like his spleen and stuff like that, and

(01:16:32):
they were.

Speaker 12 (01:16:32):
Like, what the heck is going on? We're gonna have
to see him off for a cat scan.

Speaker 14 (01:16:37):
They send him off for a cat skin called the
Chopper Rescue hallikopter to come to take him up from
the hospital to take him starship, and his whole stomach
and spleen had gone up into his left lung cavity.
I saw a hole in his diaphragm.

Speaker 1 (01:16:53):
What they were like, oh my god, what is going on?

Speaker 14 (01:16:58):
The hole in the diaphragm was a pre existing saying
it's called a congenital dia diaformatic hernia, but they didn't
know that that he was born with that, so it
was a tiny little hole.

Speaker 12 (01:17:10):

They said, I broke my collar bone, but I fractured
my shoulder blade and my thumb and a couple of
other bones as well. Somebody said, I went to the
doctor for a saw back. They referred me to a
physio chiropractice first, and then the chiropractice said. I went

(01:21:57):
back to the doctor and they said, try a physio
because they thought it was we to an acupuncturist. Got
halfway down my back with needles, and the acupuncturer said,
if you had X rays. I said, no, I'm trying
to put a needle in here and it should go
in and it's not. Your back's broken. Went back, got

Activator is next going to kick off frontay Jams with
the person at Dogs who released a brand new song
today and it slams.

Speaker 4 (01:23:08):
Fletchorn and Haley Big Pod.

Speaker 2 (01:23:10):
I think I might have a new show and producer Shannon,
I think you'll also love this show, Blue Therapy see
seven couples working through issues with a therapist on account.
It's like, where should we begin? You know Spar's podcast
where you just like flying the wall in couples Therapy. Yeah, Soga,
all the goss.

Speaker 1 (01:23:27):
All the goss.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
So the reason I'm bringing this up is because there
was one episode Mike and Yasmam. Mike and Yasmin had
been together for five years. Their biggest source of tension
in their relationship is income inequality. Yasmin earns twice as
much as Mike.

Speaker 1 (01:23:44):
What what and he's got a problem with that. I'll dope. Yeah,
there's just a bit of tension around it. So this
is what we're discussing on the gun. Don't like that?
Do they masculine?

Speaker 10 (01:23:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:23:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Whereas like who cares you're with this person? It's you know,
in the earning money? Yeah, what's the problem here? Mean yeah,
mein so.

Speaker 2 (01:24:03):
So we're talking about the money on the couch in
this episode, and that's when Mike drops a bit of
a bomb because not only has he got bad spending
habits that have put twenty four thousand dollars in debt.
She thought the debt was only twelve thousand, half the amount,
so it's double the amount of debt.

Speaker 1 (01:24:22):
So now the tension's higher.

Speaker 2 (01:24:24):
And that's when Mike likes to reveal that he's actually
was made redundant two months early, and he's been pretending
to go to work every day, tracing for work and
leaving the house and then when Yasmin would leave for
the day, he'd circle back home and just.

Speaker 1 (01:24:34):
Hang out at home. I've heard of this happening before unreal,
like because people are on TV shows. It's like pamp
and and TV shows isn't no in real life because
people are so they have so much shame about it,
or they don't know how to tell their partner or
their friends that they lost their jobs. It's like sometimes
you hear people that break up in relationships and they
don't tell their friends because they're embarrassed to it. Ye're ashamed,

(01:24:58):
Or people that pretend to still study because they've dropped
out and they don't want to tell the appearance it's
going good and they get to school every day and
just fake it.

Speaker 2 (01:25:06):
So anyway, she explodes, obviously they've got a child, like
this is the whole thing, and she leaves and she says,
I can't even look at you right now.

Speaker 1 (01:25:12):
Well that's fair enough on her side.

Speaker 2 (01:25:14):
Yeah, but I want to know, like, what was the
secret that your partner was keeping and was it revealed?
How did it come out?

Speaker 16 (01:25:21):
What was it?

Speaker 1 (01:25:22):
Why were they keeping such a big secret? I mean
obviously there's like cheating secrets, but you do hear.

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
Of like cheating, Yeah, but like our fears blow my mind. Yeah,
like when you're like, oh, they had to slip up
or whatever. You're like, okay, we're all animals.

Speaker 15 (01:25:36):
But.

Speaker 1 (01:25:37):
That was terrible to say. Nine sex, none sex, if
you'd like to hear that song, Oh, it's Friday, gam blood,
how Gang? Why was blood again? So many classic songs.

Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
At the time, nine sex if you want to hear that,
but also nine sex, nine sex give us a tear
one hundred dollars at what's.

Speaker 1 (01:26:01):
The name of the song the band touch? That's the one,
isn't it year? That's sort of it's in the system
year that it's not on me? If it says rude words.

Speaker 3 (01:26:10):
Does quickly say.

Speaker 1 (01:26:14):
Yeah, okay, okay, So that's not stories stories that your
partner was keeping from you.

Speaker 3 (01:26:20):
When were they keeping a massive secret?

Speaker 1 (01:26:23):
Because you hear people that like have like gambling problems
or like they're addicted to something and then they keep
it from their partner. Secret Secret, Children, Secret appears children
on eight hundred dollars at ms A number nine six
nine six. Do we have a text go ahead for Bloodhound? Games?
Play that so I'm changing stations. That's a three weekend.
We take that seriously. We do not negotiate with terrorists,

(01:26:46):
and we do not negotiate with texts like that, I'll
tell you that, right, but we are playing it, and
please don't change the station.

Speaker 5 (01:26:52):
Podcasted work.

Speaker 1 (01:26:53):
So when was your partner keeping a big secret? If
you want to add to the last nine six nine six, yes.

Speaker 2 (01:26:59):
Because there's a tea show called Blue Therapy, and on it,
one man revealed to his wife that he was made
redundant two months prior and had been pretending to go
to work, like putting on his suit every day and
leaving the house and then waiting till she had left
and then just go home and hanging out and then
being like.

Speaker 1 (01:27:14):
Great, that's some wild messages and cool set will not
make it to wear. Why is it called blue therapy?
I don't know. Is it blue as in the color blue?
I don't know. You're down and you're like blue's blue,
blues clues blue? Just now do our therapy? Is it
hosted by a cartoon dog?

Speaker 2 (01:27:32):
I'm going Why is it called blue therapy? Okay, l no, thanks,
it ain't Blue therapy? Isn't officially explained feeling blue? Maybe
reflecting emotional honesty.

Speaker 1 (01:27:42):
We're all you meant to be boycotting chet ChiPT and
going to cawe. No, not that one one of them. Okay,
the best am I research? Can you use your consumer guarantees?
Chet GPT? Why are we boy we should be boycotting?

Speaker 2 (01:28:03):
You see what he says, recommend another what's do you
want to he said, Yeah, that pops up every now
and then. The whole boy cat boycott chatchypy teething usually
comes from a few different debates happening online at the
same time.

Speaker 1 (01:28:19):
Here's the main reason why. Oh okay, so they're trying
to like laugh off.

Speaker 2 (01:28:24):
Yeah, the fact, if you want to, I can also
tell you the specific reason people are suddenly talking about.

Speaker 1 (01:28:28):
We could this leads us nicely back into secrets. You'll
keep it. Maybe when you discovered you were partner secret
they could try to laugh it off, just like chatty
say some messages and so living together. He told me
he'd been married twice six months and it turns out
to be married three times and she was in South
Africa six months later. I looked at a Ministry of
Justice letter that he said was a speeding fine. Now

(01:28:50):
I'm the detective, but I think that comes from n
z NTA. Yes it does, yeh. Spinning fund doesn't come
from the Nursery of justice unless it goes to course,
even paid your fine, has divorce papers and she was
living in New Zealand in the same town as us.
Oh wow. Sorry, somebody thinks it's called blue theory because

(01:29:10):
the information may have come out of the blue. You've
been surprised by something that's an interesting you. That's a
good take on it. Um, we had a mortgage approved
last year, and then when you apply for a mortgage,
it really reveals a reveals if you're keeping secrets going
to be a partner, it's all going to come out.
My shopping I was alarming. They look at the statements

(01:29:35):
that you ignore. You said that was gifted, but you
paid for me. And that other thing you said you'd
had the ages you just got that was in fact
not old, it was brand new from last week. A
secrets to keep it from your partner. Oh yeah, a
whole lot of secrets are expose when I applied for

(01:29:55):
a mortgage and got all the information on it.

Speaker 6 (01:29:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:29:58):
Um, oh that's a long one that might need a
pre read. Now we've got some Can you give that
one a pre read please, Hailey, the big fat one.

Speaker 3 (01:30:06):
It's full noise.

Speaker 1 (01:30:07):
Okay, Okay, we're on Friday bars. I don't want to
something that's going to bring me down too much. Anonymous, Please,
My partner had a relationship with their recovery therapist while
in rehab. That's against the protocols, isn't it breaches my.

Wing is a gross tetics. I'm not going to read it.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):

I said insert own, I said in sert, welcome here.
That's up. That's on Brannan. I wanted the white guy
getting in trouble.

Speaker 15 (01:33:11):
Actually, just letting everyone know. Vaughan has written the script today,
so you may notice some changes, but some soft would
you say, funnier than when Haley did it. I'm making
no comment, okay, Shelder, Good morning. I'm Bryn Rudkins. Firstly today,
off to Texas, where voters may finally get the candidates

(01:33:31):
that've been asking for literally anybody else. A Texas resident
legally changed his name to literally anybody else is now
running for mayor of a Texas town. Yes, his competitors
old Watson's face, and you know that old white guy
couldn't be reached for comment, Did I deliver that the
part that was the Did I deliver that?

Speaker 1 (01:33:54):
I'm the writer I write? Write this? Hayley sprout dot
com take us to my comedy took.

Speaker 10 (01:34:00):
Right.

Speaker 15 (01:34:00):
Next, archaeologists have discovered that ancient Egyptians invented twink about
three thousand, three hundred years ago.

Speaker 1 (01:34:07):
No fletch, not twinks. Did you write that you have trouble?
You little ship bags? The stories? You're like this all
overly good?

Speaker 15 (01:34:16):
That?

Speaker 1 (01:34:16):
Come on?

Speaker 3 (01:34:17):
Oh they invented bag an Egyptian times.

Speaker 1 (01:34:19):
Yeah, well the loin cloths. Fan, if you'll give me cases, daddy?
Can you roam me down the river? Daddy? I gotta
go to warr carry on, carry on, Okay, Twink The

(01:34:40):
white correction.

Speaker 15 (01:34:43):
Was used on the Book of the Dead scroll to
cover mistakes and even slim down a slightly chunky jackal
drawing historian say it proves that even an ancient Egypt,
when someone looked a pharaoh too fat, the artist simply
said quick papyrus over it, of and denial about their mistakes.

Speaker 1 (01:35:03):
It's got its DST and you didn't use GPT. Hayley's
writing it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:09):
Next, I'm actually quite happy to distance myself from this fune.
To be fair, I'm glad that we announced that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:15):
Anybody mentions Egypt, you've got to say something about them
being in denial. And then someone says someone was Russian,
and you're like, how do you know? Because it's fine.
That's just one. Yeah, I don't write the rules of frondy.
That's just funny. You certainly don't. I do love how
we're stopping and explaining them all too. That's another good thing.

Speaker 15 (01:35:35):
And finally, a fishing tournament in America has become a
whale of a scandal. One competitor has been arrested after
allegedly stuffing weights inside a bass to make the fish
heavier and won a ten thousand dollars prize. The angler
now faces felony charges because the organizer said, they're all
about the bass, about the base, no problem.

Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
It's all about the bass, about the bass, about no trouble.
It's about the same. It's so confusing.

Speaker 15 (01:36:05):
Okay, do you want me to read that final joke
that you've written. I guess some people will stop at
nothing to tip the scales in their favor.

Speaker 1 (01:36:15):
Was it a joke? Yeah? Because you've got waits again.
I feel like if we're stopping down to explain it's funny.
You know, maybe we do, just maybe we do. Just
get the medium next where. Congratulations to you podcast lit'sen.

(01:36:35):
You've reached the end. So I would assume if you've
listened all this way through you'll eat it asleep. In
