Speaker 1 (00:00):
This Gentleman Being podcast. Hey that's us, brought to you
by Hello Fresh. The Experts and Tastes that kiwis love
but a fog around it again today in the online region,
causing a bit of disturbance for people traveling out of
Aukland Airport this morning. But as short weeks there's some
positive stuff out there.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Well negative stuff is what your son's been digesting.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yeah, do you know.

Speaker 4 (00:21):
You always give me crap because I like to cook
things from scratch, so I always like to try and
make them like nice meals.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Most of the time. He doesn't eat them. My daughter,
well he doesn't. He is very picky at the moment.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Give me a chicken nugget of fish finger any day
of the week.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
They love the fish fingers.

Speaker 2 (00:36):

dinner if I could.

He's pulled to.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
The Chelsea Sugar Chelsea sugar.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
Okay, He's standing in front of a bowl of Chelsea sugar,
chocolate chips and a bowl of flour and he sits
there and he has this thing. Every time I get
the flower, he needs to chug some flour each flower.
He should be eating the Chelsea sugar and some of

(01:40):
them and a bold and he's sitting there hoovering the flower.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
I'm like, what is wrong with you?

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Well, I guess, Well, flowers pretty indefensive, isn't it. Really?
I can't even explain what it would taste like powder,
like right even breed before it's does he do it?

Speaker 7 (01:57):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Does he know it will get like a laugh? Like
is he playing to the no?

Speaker 4 (02:00):
Because like if I'm using it to, you know, make dinner,
He's like, I want the flower. I'm like, no, you're
not having the flower. And he's like I want and
throws a tantrum.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
You're not having the flower. You're weirdos.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Stop They're like dogs. They're just the trial and era
when it comes to the taste buds.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Kids though, won't eat the dinner, the nice dinner that
I've cooked for him, but it'll hover the flower.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
I can save you a lot of prep time just before,
here's your bowl of flour for tonight.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
And then it's in the bath and drinks the bath water.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Glooy in texture and it hits his mouth with the saliva.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, and he's also like we we give him like
frost milk, and he thinks we tell him it's coffee.
So now like he's just all the time hanging I.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Need a coffee.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
He's free, So he come around to my house.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
He's got like white powder on his face and I'm
desperately asking for coffee.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
He's a little strung out, drug out businessman and flower coffee.

Speaker 8 (02:52):
Anyway, the heads that Jonaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Billionaire businessman Elon Musky or no from owning twelve he's
now called it X and Tesla as well. Just became
a father for the twelfth time over the last couple
of days. He's had five kids in the last six years. Yeah,
so three different mums I think throughout the twelve kids.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
Just realized one of them he had in twenty twenty
with Grimes. It was like X something something something, but
he just named Twitter after his son called X.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
This one called techno as well.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
He looks at hard drive and sort of USB cable
and things.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Congratulations to him twelve.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
He seems like a busy guy. Time to have children.
How does he squeeze that in? It's And I'll tell
you what. I was busy last week and I was
running late for an appointment that was on the other
side of town, and I made rush to get there, okay,
came as sticking to the speed limit. And then I
finally turned up and I'm sitting in reception and I'm
getting there's another person in reception, and I'm getting who

(03:50):
the hell's this chump? Sort of energy from the other
person of reception towards me, so I can feel.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
It all right. Then they're thinking that you're coming in
to take their slot, so just.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Con feel some he's not right, okay. And then it's
the wonderful acupuncture lady that I go and see and
she walks out and goes, oh, like a surprise look.
And you never want that when you've traveled across town
to a reception. You don't want to catch the person
that is expecting you with a look of not expecting you,
and she's like, you're not meant to be here. I

(04:22):
send you a text, but you never confirmed the time.
Hold on me. No one else is apart from me.
But how lovely is this? The other lady who was
singing receptions like, listen, if you really need this appointment,
you can take my slot.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Oh how lovely is that? Did you take it?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Absolutely?

Speaker 9 (04:42):
Now?

Speaker 1 (04:42):
The lady had broken back, journey, roll out the door,
see you later.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
No. But I was like, there's some great people lift
of the world up. There's some truly horrific ones as well,
but there's some This is a lovely gesture.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
It does that.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Someone that was like, yeah, things will take you up
on that off.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
So get into whose back is the sore old old
man of mines I can do that.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
I can't and you can't prove it. I was like,
when you argue with your partner about who's more tired, Yeah,
there's no actual evidence. So this is what we want
to throw open this morning. We're at the right place,
just at the wrong time.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
I had one a couple of years ago, getting my
yearly mole map as well, turned up, waited there for
a long time. It was busy, and then I was like, oh, hey,
am I going to be seen soon? And they went yeah.
In about a week's time, I had the right day,
right time, just totally. The guy said a great line
to me. He was like, good dress rehearsal, We'll see
you next week. I was like, okay, cool, now I

(05:42):
know where to park all those things you do, like
a dress rehearsal.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Though too, didn't you run into an elderly gentleman while
you're on holiday on the Gold Coast you're doing a
dress rehearsal.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
I'll stay at this place. Just chatting to him downstairs,
I was waiting for my family and I was like, oh,
you're enjoying the place. And he said, oh, we're not
staying here at the moment. We're staying next week. But
they had driven like an hour and a half just
check out the place, and his wife boomers, but just
to check out the place, kind of feeling for it, barking,
and he's like, yeah, we're coming back next week. Yeah wow.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
And you turned up right place, wrong time.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Ah No.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
But it's my fear with flights, like I've just always
double checking. I think I booked one in the wrong
year one time, but they let me change it because
I forget that beforehand.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
But that's just like my worst fear missing a flight.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Turning up after the fact the day after.

Speaker 8 (06:31):
That John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Okay, right place, wrong time, but a mixed up and comms,
and I turned up to an appointment that wasn't even
an appointment. And mix up and comms was me being
an absolute idiot? All on me?

Speaker 1 (06:45):
It was, But you see how it happened.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, and you drive home and you and you're book
another time. You're like, I'm not going to book Joe
for an hour for just a bit of a laugh.
So right place, wrong time. Some amazing text messages coming
through here. I arrived early to our our wedding. I
was the bride. I arrived before most of the guests.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
I was so.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Stressed about traffic.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
That's unusual.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's really well done.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
Everyone will wait for you. You're the event.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Well, speaking of waiting, there's another TC in four for
eighty seven. My mother in law was forty five minutes
late for our wedding. I was waiting at the end
of the aisle for her to arrive. She waltzon forty
five minutes late. How does that sit with you, Megan Peppers.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
No, I don't think I'd be stoked about it to
the whole the wedding for her.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
I guess mother in law. Yeah, I guessed to be
power on this guy. Come on, no one.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Wants the wrath of starting that without the mother in law.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
But what point do you go?

Speaker 2 (07:49):
You got to pull the pin sometime, are you. I
arrived home very early to surprise my man and I
caught him in bed with his girlfriend. Oh that was
a hell of a surprise.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
It right place, wrong time, definitely, that's a nice situation.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Let's get fi owner and welcome to the show. Fiona.
How are you dad?

Speaker 10 (08:07):
How are you going doing well?

Speaker 8 (08:08):
Mate?

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Right place, wrong time?

Speaker 10 (08:11):
Yeah, now this has become family law. It wasn't actually met.
It was my auntie, so shout out to Anni Karen
if she's listening. She organized a kid free weekend away
with her and I think it was three other couples
down to Wellington for a concert. So flights, accommodation, everything,
they got there and they were a weekend early.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Oh and there's not a lot they can move you.
They can put you in because of the accommodations be
taken up.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
What happened? Where did they find accommodation?

Speaker 10 (08:40):
So I think in the end of the day, I
think they just went out to dinner. They just turned
it into a weekend and said, you know, at let's
just have a good time. And then my uncle, her
brother lives in Wellington, so he took the ticket to
the following weekend and we forgot.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
That his solutions.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, we had a situation back in the day when
I was doing some stuff for Skye. Bought totally wrong,
got there. It was basically accommodation already gone to someone else.
It screwed it up. So we ended up having the
like I said, Airbnb, but it was this lady. Oh
lovely old lady got out of her house and we
say that I was in the like a grandkids room
with all these pictures on. This is but weird. I

(09:18):
don't know did.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
She stay in her house?

Speaker 3 (09:22):
What did you say? The master?

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Someone else was at the master.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Whatever the old lady. It was very unusual, but it
was this friendly part of New Zealand house produced Taylor.
You used to work in the airline industry, Yeah.

Speaker 11 (09:39):
And I can say it happened so many times when
someone would come and check in and I type in
their surname, couldn't find them where you're find to checked
up the plane number, couldn't find them there itinerary, and
i'd see, well, honey, you're actually here a Monday early.
You need to come this time next.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Please tell me you so you delivered.

Speaker 11 (09:55):
It absolutely, It's amazing, you know. And that is to
do that, like here's someone wrong.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
Twiling your finger through your hair.

Speaker 12 (10:07):
You can do that when you wear red lipstick and
stuff in.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Great text and calls appreciated. Someone turned up five weeks
too early for an operation? How do you get that?

Speaker 8 (10:17):
Thes that John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Good news with the government funding a whole lot of
six hundred and four million dollars towards Farmact for delivery
on some cancer drugs. Great news for cancer patients around
New Zealand, which is really awesome. Fifty four new drugs
are going to be funded.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Felt like they needed to do that.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
They kind of promised that.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
They promise it and then went by the way, you know,
all those cancer people, we promised that's medicine too.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Where's the money coming from? Who knows?

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Who knows?

Speaker 1 (10:43):
It's awesome there.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Let's just say the inter Island. You might be out
on your own. It's got to come from somewhere, right.
Maybe we can just all just have like a one
dinghy that we all share. There's a roster system to
go between the islands.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, yeah, we can do a working bee. We get
right together, you know.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Working fixed up the boat. Yeah, maybe that's the way
around it. Now, what's this message you've been teasing us?
Was came through at two o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, over the weekend. Now, I checked my messages, probably
a day or two late, just yesterday checked his message,
you know, because one of those things, it's a burden
that feels like clearing messages. When someone leaves your message
on your phone.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
You're surprised you even did clear your voicemail.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Well I did it yesterday and I was like, oh
there was a message, yeah, two forty on Saturday morning.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Those aren't appropriate message leater from.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
An unknown number. But this is the message that I got, Ablance,
you have.

Speaker 13 (11:33):
A message receive at two forty am.

Speaker 9 (11:37):
So into your car. I don't know who, I don't
know how, but I might have been drunk, that is
if you if you got a visiting your fridge just
asking for a mate yourself?

Speaker 1 (11:53):
What Yeah, I was like, myself my car?

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Did I crash into my own car?

Speaker 1 (11:58):
And then I went and then I went an ai
ai my boy.

Speaker 13 (12:02):
You know again, you have a message receive at two
a m.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
The car.

Speaker 9 (12:12):
I don't know who, I don't know how, but I
might have been drunk. That is if you if you
got any in your fridge asking for a mate.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
It seems like a lose lose for the person whose
car has been a car and a fredge.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
Are you drunk on saiday night?

Speaker 1 (12:28):
But if you if you drinks.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
But I call myself and then it's like you're asking yourself,
are there any.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
I mean, maybe I've got a real fight club that movie.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Did you bring car crash? You've been along to the night?

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Did you look and see if there was a din
in the back of your car?

Speaker 1 (12:44):
You know what I did? Just I was like, well,
the car's been anyway, but I was like, better go
over look just in case someone who's actually driven somehow
up the driveway into the car.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
But no, it feels like there could definitely be used
as evidence in some of the court of law somewhere.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
But it wasn't my car, and I don't know who
that is that were on the phone, and the apology
is it is.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
You can't argue what it is. What it is now
you can the fridge bak gloss over there covered for
a beer. It's very open door policy that we have.
It is what it is.

Speaker 8 (13:19):
Hey, the hits that jonaan Ben podcast now brit.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Raudkin does the night show and the news here in
the hits the wonderful job of both. But you really
have put yourself out there recently.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (13:31):
Quite often I get asked what sort of hobbies or
interests I have and I don't really have a good
enough answer.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, we needed a hobby or interest. Most people don't
have hobbies and or interest A lot of people just
existing as a hobby.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
It takes up a lot of your day.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Kind of get people like mates you the gold for
fishing one of the things, or they kind of get into.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
None of those for Britain.

Speaker 14 (13:53):
No, I recently got into stand up comedy. Yeah, yeah,
never done it before, never but you call it a
hobby now I would call myself a former comedian.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
I show so you got into this it was the
course that you did, but not Yeah you didn't think
you were doing a stand up comedy No.

Speaker 14 (14:10):
I thought I was doing an MC course because you know,
we quite often have to MC events and stuff. The
odd weepbooks, tray that sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Well, give you some balloons over the white cut.

Speaker 14 (14:22):
Yeah, yeah, all that good stuff. And so I thought,
you know, I want to get better at being an MC.
Turns out it was a stand up comedy course.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
But after the first you know, like course you didn't
like pull.

Speaker 14 (14:35):
Out plaid five hundred bucks.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Well, I'm going to be a funny MC. And so
you completed.

Speaker 14 (14:43):
You completed the course, Yes, finished it. Graduated last week
by doing a five minute set at the classic.

Speaker 8 (14:49):
Oh Dear God.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
So this is you on stage in front of her
like a whole lot of people, five minutes telling jokes.

Speaker 14 (14:54):
Yeah, and they scheduled me on last was the last person.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
That means you've got a good set close right.

Speaker 14 (15:00):
Climb just meant I had to wait an hour freaking
out in the in the in the.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Green royeshould be the dry reaching Yeah, it was. Any
stage we were like, can I just cry and run away?

Speaker 14 (15:11):
I think I was high on risky remen by the
time they got on stage.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
Was that?

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (15:19):
A good time audio.

Speaker 14 (15:23):
This is a wee taste of one of my jokes.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
I believe this is Brandon Dog his first ever one
of my comedy jokes.

Speaker 15 (15:31):
I love seeing people disappointed, especially when a tsunami doesn't
show up. It's much hype around tsunamis. We have evacuation drills,
we have tsunami evacuation signs, and when a tsunami siren

(15:54):
goes off, what do we do. We were jumping our cars,
we freaking out with panic, and we.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Flee to the beach.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
So yeah, let's just what we taste it. Laughs.

Speaker 14 (16:05):
Well again, by the time I was on stage, everyone
in the crowd had maybe two or three wines, right,
so you're the full leaders ask and a whole bottle
of fanter That is very well done.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, terrify. Yeah, probably no lonelier place and standing on
that stage having to tell jokes and make people laugh.

Speaker 14 (16:25):
I know, five minutes about like five hours being on.

Speaker 4 (16:28):
Stage, and I just want to say, I I wanted
to go, but you told me that we weren't allowed to.
So it's not like we didn't support Wow, we weren't
allowed to go.

Speaker 14 (16:36):
Well, actually what I said was don't come to my
first one. You can come to my sickond, but I've
decided I'm not doing a second.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
Out sparking for you and someone goes you want to
come and watch me do some amateur comedy, like whatnot?

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Is it? I want to watch last night? Maybe you
could tour with him so well?

Speaker 8 (16:58):
I could have opened for him the hits that johnaan
Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Taylor Swift in the middle of a tour that just
seems to be going and going and going. She's over
there in the UK playing to ninety thousand people every
night in Wembley. In London, Prince William went along. He
was shaking it off. He was loving it. Tom Cruise
I saw I was yesterday. He was there. He was
looking like it was in a great time as well.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
All the famous people have been going to her London
shows and maybe that's what's triggered this.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Didn't you pull old Trevis Kelcey on stage a live
sketch which is always resky doing live sketch comedy.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Well I think it was part of the dance routine
or something, and he came out yeah, which was it
was able to have bought the house down.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Take a little skip for an intro of I can
do it with a broken.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Eye probably, Like mate, you've been coming along, at least
do something. Yeah, help me out.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Free tickets you know, your friends and family.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
And and all sorts of stuff. Parties were like, get
on stage, mate.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
So this is a happened in London.

Speaker 4 (17:52):
Well, she's performing in London and the Food Fighters performed Saturday.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
Night in London. So I don't know if it's Rolls
feeling the heat because they're both there. But the Saturday
show Dave Grol and we know it was like the
nice guy of rock.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
I'm a fan of the Food Fighter's massive fan of
Dave Groll, but this seems kind of out of character.
He got up on stage and made a jab about
Taylor Surft and the fact that she or he thinks
she might not be singing live.

Speaker 16 (18:22):
You don't want to. So we had one views and.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Oh so saying that they actually play live. But did
she She plays live. She's an amazing guitar.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
She she definitely plays live.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
So it seemed like a bit of a jab. It's
like three and a half hour. No one can say
that that show is not amazing. I haven't even been
to it, and you can tell it's amazing.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
So we recorded backing vocals and parts, but for the
most part would be all.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Live, like all pop stars are backing vocals.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
She's got amazing backup singers and stuff on stage, and
the dances like I watched, I watched them.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Olivia and Taylor Swift, those are his two. But didn't
she train for like three hours on a treadmill for
this tour while singing.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
And she's playing, She plays piano, she plays, she plays
multiple instruments, so it seems a bit weird that he
would come for her. But in true Taylor fashion, she
came out and she didn't make a jab at him,
but she did congratulate all the backup singers, all the artists,
all the backstage people working on her show, and then
made a comment about how it is live.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
And a half hours to.

Speaker 8 (19:56):
So much.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
My band will be playing for three and a half
ours tonight. They deserve this so much. Also the night after,
so this was Dave Grol on Saturday night. On Sunday Night,
she also choked on a bug. Funny enough, while she
was singing live.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
She was like, sorry, I'm choking on a bug. Maybe
just to prove that. Her mic was like.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
They planted their bug.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, it first feels very uncharacteristic from Dave. Girls gonna
be so supportive of things.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Maybe he's just saying some stuff and just trying to
do a gag and it's landed terribly.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Now what did you mean by this? What did she mean?
What does the bug mean?

Speaker 2 (20:36):
We're all going to get to let's not argue she's
performing lives that jonaan Ben podcast just.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
All black squads named under Scott Robertson as the coach.
He didn't announce though, if he's going to be break dancing,
if they want the test matches afterwards, he's.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Idea hope, So don't hope.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
You if they went a world cup board like a
Blithers or something you'd like to see about there.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Just even have a good training, get out there and
break dancing, just really live the spirits. So is that
when you see a grown man breakdown?

Speaker 1 (21:03):
So that's cool.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Like whenever you're a party and someone's starts doing the
worm or something.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
And was like, yeah, it's like an uncle or a
wedd and you're like, oh here he goes, here.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
He goes No one's ever, no one's ever down about that.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Yeah, it's either hip hop or a hip operation afterwards,
depends on how well it goes.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
Now, my my.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Wife uses trade me from time to time. I haven't
really dipped my toes into it. But it's quite good
because you can go, why don't you sell this? And
she does that, she has to deal with it all. Yeah,
I'm like, I don't have anok count, it's all that convenient.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
You'd be shocking Hegler on trade me too. You're like
it's twenty bucks. They're like, i'll give you six, and
you're like, okay, it's a deal.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Yeah I know. But we had these couches. They were fine,
and we're like, oh, should we get rid of them.
We'll just put them for one dollar and whatever they get,
they get. They didn't sell for too much, but anyway,
people came and got them and we're like, good, they
were in good condition and they would someone will get
to use them, which is great.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
It's just the dollar reserve. Yeah, so it starts there
and wherever it ends up and is that is there
like a time limit?

Speaker 1 (22:00):
You can sit time limits and stuff and you can
then buy now and you can People love asking questions.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Maybe I should ask the question to Amanda because you're not.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Doing any of the But she had a message because
I didn't realize you could message, like privately message people
as well about their actions, not just publicly, and someone
had actually messaged at the time, because this is a
few weeks ago that were they asked a question about
the couches, and then my wife hadn't seen the private message,
and then a couple hours within two hours later, they
said you need to respond or we will report you.

(22:33):
And my wife had only just seen this, like two
weeks afterwards. She was like, oh, dear, this person is
actually saying they go no. I don't know if they've
reported them, but I'm like, well, they've really gone from
zero to one hundred, like a nice light question about
the couches, then suddenly a right answer or reporting.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
Two hours later. I'm still finishing work.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Must have been a bloody good couch. Dollar couch. You
want rest, you want to answers to your questions, like.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's a dollar couch. I mean two couches for a
dollar you could get, you know, it's just why.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
You would to show me just feels like a whole
other job. And Edmund, you're giving yourself. I know how
shocking I've been at sending out listeners prizes over the
years from radio stations, but.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
People make money off it.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
So and it's a nice thing to get, you know, recycle.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yeah, Megan, though, you had an experience, very unusual experience.
This was a pick up.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
So I bought something on trade me and I went
to pick it up. This was probably the last time
I'd ever picked something up. So it was like an
old bungalow and like a street with all these trees,
and I was like, this is creepy.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
So walked up the stairs with the cars on swapper
crates outside the front.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Yeah, you know the vibe, I know, vibe the vibe.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
So I walked up and knocked on the door. No, yes,
for the sake my picture. So I stepped up on
the door and knocked and took a while for an
old man to come to the door. That he answered
the door by saying, what want I've come to do?

Speaker 3 (23:54):
Like a pick up?

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Like do you know you don't know? Someone's expecting me? Am,
I in the right place. And that's when he calls
out to his wife.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
He's like, that's for you. She comes to the door.

Speaker 4 (24:05):
And a towel well, and I was like, I'm sure
I was just messaging you saying I was arriving. So
she was like, come inside, Come inside, and I'll get
it for you. So I come and she ushes me
into like a front lounge. The house is so many cats,
and it's like quite untidy. It smells a bit weird.
And I waited for what seemed like an eternity, and
I can hear them yelling at each other, and I

(24:27):
was like, I'm going to die here.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
You've got to respect a couple who will openly scream
at each other in front of a stranger. And not
even did she get out of the towel at any point.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
I stayed in the towel, but it's what I was
picking up. They came back. It was like flavored candy flocks.
Why do these people have.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Candy floss bags?

Speaker 2 (24:47):
I'm picturing and I don't know why I'm picturing an
ample bosom, whether it was like an animal riding room
motorblike as a tattoo on the left one.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
I don't want to hear what you're anymore. I just
want to know tails Trade me? What are you your tails?

Speaker 8 (25:00):
With? The heads that John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Trade Me tales is what we're getting into. After Ben
Boyce his wife Amanda got a bit of a custer
and a customer abuse Yeah, for not answering a question
within a two hour time frame.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
That's right. Threats are being reported. We're banded about.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
But that's the ultimate I'm going to tell mom and dad,
doesn't it.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, interesting things you can do. I think I've mentioned
this before. That turned up to help pick up something
from mate, and a lady was eating an iceberg lettuce
like a like an apple, just like.

Speaker 3 (25:30):
That's so weird.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
I was like, Okay, that's weird.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Because little serial listing. You've got to wash the letters,
don't you. You can't just go raw? But washed it a.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
Dog a letters?

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, was it a big lettus?

Speaker 1 (25:42):
It was like a good handful of letters, you know what.
They still had that little sort of dirty bit at
the bottom.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
Of it, you know, just liked of something wrapped in it.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
That was just like just the litters, you know, sometimes
they can't end up like a ball.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
Were you buying something off a rabbit? Was Megan? No,
you thought your life was going to end when you
just went to innocently buy some specifically favored candy floss.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
This is back when I owned a cafe and I
got trapped in the house for a while waiting for.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
The candy flop with a lady in a towel and
a man's screaming and screaming at her. Yeah, it was
the candy floss worth it it was it good?

Speaker 3 (26:16):
It was good candy floss.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Make the candy floss.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
And quiestion, I love those moments when you're sitting there
and you're like, ohow is this how it's going to end?
I just want to floor some great tips coming through here.
On four four eight seven, Trade Me Tales, I bought
a fourteen foot paper tiger off trade me thirty two dollars.
Why fourteen foot's enormous?

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Is it going garden?

Speaker 2 (26:43):
I'll but mind you rain. That's a huge paper machet
project ended that. Yeah, my son cost me seven thousand
dollars when he decided as a six year old to
bid on a Ford Felcon. Oh wow, and we've got
it still to the stay got the car, don't you?

(27:03):
I think you do a few in the auction, don't you?

Speaker 4 (27:05):
Well you could just say my son. You know you
can write into them and say what sees.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Can't I'll report you get a bed.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Rating, Danelle, welcome to Trade me Tales. How are you?

Speaker 7 (27:15):
Yeah? Oh, God, thank you. Good good.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Lovely weather, lovely, lovely weather, where are you?

Speaker 7 (27:21):
And no it's not lovely weather.

Speaker 8 (27:24):
Love it.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
There were no weather related questions, and you came out
with lovely weather, it's beautiful, great weather report.

Speaker 7 (27:30):
It wasn't trade me because we got sick of that
fifty million questions you get on trade me.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
We thought we'd go.

Speaker 7 (27:37):
Try and sell a headboard through marketplace.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Oh yeah, that's the world wast isn't it. Marketplace.

Speaker 7 (27:45):
Yeah, we had a lovely lady, as we thought, I
was going to see the courier up to pick up
said head board, and then she asked us to pay
money to the courier. To the courier who give us money?
When we said no, we don't think so, she's treated
us with a lawsuit.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Lawsuit.

Speaker 7 (28:03):
Wow, yes, well we don't think it was a woman.
Always think it was somebody from some overseas country.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Yes, what was the scam? You just had to give
the courier some money.

Speaker 7 (28:17):
Yeah, and he would release some money for the headboard
and he would take the headboard.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
And so what did you do?

Speaker 7 (28:27):
And we told them that, thank you.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
Well that means you've still got a headboard on your hands.

Speaker 7 (28:32):
No, no, we managed to.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Give away Denelle's headboard.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
I don't need an Okay, We'll.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Got on you, Deanelle. Thank you so much.

Speaker 14 (28:44):
Yah.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
Facebook Marketplace, I love it. Reminds me of you know
when you watch those old Disney movies and someone's wandering
through a marketplace and he runs there just trying to
scam them. Reminds me of Facebook Marketplace.

Speaker 8 (28:54):
The hits that Joan Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Congratulations to the All Blacks who were named of the
team yesterday, Scott Robertson's first all black squad named and
a brand new captain Scott Barrett as well. Some congratulations.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
They called him dog Roll.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
They call him dog Roll.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
That's a great nickname, dog Roll, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Why is it dog Roll?

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Probably maybe he did he Maybe it's some champion roll.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yeah, let's go with that story. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Apparently apparently there we go now.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
A gear change and it's blowing kids minds with magic.
We just heard Costantino in the studio illusionist magicians coming
here into year ten shows amazing and it was amazing.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Got a tiktak swallow t tach came out through his eyeball.
Basically pretty incredible.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Now you're thinking about how he's done there. Has he
wandered in here with the tax sitting in his eyeball
for the duration of the interview.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Or has he just managed to know how to get
it up through the snorted up.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
Through the passage. You know, let's not think about it
too hard. But if you wanted to appreciate your children, okay,
here is a magic trick that will blow their mind.
And it's to do with the humble intersection light phasing. Okay.
So you're in the car with the kids, okay, and
you can predict when your light is going to go green. Now,

(30:16):
as adults, we all know how you can do that,
all right, okay, but the kids cannot.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Wrap their head around it.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
And every time you do it, it will rock their world.
It will change their course of their life.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
So you're just kind of sitting there and you're like,
and you know what I'm doing? Yeah, Yeah, I know. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
Are we not saying are we pretending this is?

Speaker 1 (30:34):
Yeah's not going? Hey, guess what I didn't like that
is going? How do you want me to pull back
the curtain? No, don't do it, don't know Okay, they're
not alive with the right because those people might want
to do it on your kids. I mean, it's not
like it's something you're like, oh, couple, believe those here's.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
A magic trick that will blow your mind. But then
you're not telling people how to do it.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
No. Well, okay, you pull up to a light intersection,
your light's red. Okay, you just think, how do you
how do you imagine that you predict when your light's
tuning in?

Speaker 1 (31:02):
How do you know that when the phasing is going
to be working for you when.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
Everyone else stops?

Speaker 2 (31:08):
You just look around, look around the intersection. It'll be
a clue. Yeah, okay, look around Its maybe other lights
what they're doing yeah, yeah, And you sort of get
the sequence in your head. So it's quite easy to predict.
And you can be like, we're going to go green now,
and they're like, what the hell how are you doing?
My dad did it to me, blew my mind until
I figured out what he was doing.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
You don't want to take off when it goes green, though,
because a lot of people run reds. You don't want
to be the first person out there. But you can
go and it's going green now.

Speaker 16 (31:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
But the trick is you've only got to find out
amount of time to pull this off before they start
to click on to what you're doing.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Okay, oh you got plenty of years producer Taylor. Still,
She's like, I have no idea what you're doing.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
You figured out now.

Speaker 8 (31:46):
The heads that jonaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Of Course Friday is Martaiki public holiday for New Zealands.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
Now produced Taylor last night, late one, late Monday.

Speaker 12 (31:56):
Nice very tired today and the.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Greens the Green all met of the week going out
late on a Monday night.

Speaker 11 (32:02):
I know, but I thought it's a short week. Yeah,
wait to do it right, evens it out hopefully.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
Dear friend just reminded us of that. Yeah, so what
do you do?

Speaker 11 (32:11):
I went to Jerry Seinfeld last night, he stand up
special in Auckland.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
It couldn't have been too late for Seinfeld. Wouldn't have
been eleven o'clock or anything like that.

Speaker 11 (32:20):
Right, Well, finished around ten and then by the time
we got an uber probably got home at like eleven.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
Listen to us old people trying to make it good.
I was like, no, that, You've got to live your life.

Speaker 12 (32:37):
Yeah, you're like, oh, experiencing.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
My theory is you're going to be tired. No matter
what time you get to you never wake up. God Jesus,
you know you're going.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
To be tired. And so this was some of Jerry Seinfeld.

Speaker 17 (32:51):
I got married late in life. I was forty five.
I had some issues. I was enjoying those issues quite
a bit. As I recall, when I was single, I
had married friends. I would not visit their homes. I
found their lives to be pathetic and depressing. Now that
I'm married, I have no single friends. I find their
lives to be meaningless and trivial experiences. In both cases,

(33:15):
I believe I was correct.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Was it good?

Speaker 12 (33:18):
It was so good?

Speaker 8 (33:19):
Was it? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (33:20):
One of the best comedians of all times.

Speaker 7 (33:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (33:23):
You know he's networth his one billion dollars. Yeah, because
of the show sign Phil predominantly, and then of course
everything else he's done.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
If you watched many of his specials on some Netflix, yeah,
because sometimes people would say, going along to his concert
like or his performances, he would do some of the
same jokes you hear before. But his theory is like
they're good jokes. Yeah, good jokes. People want to hear.
Good he got a concert. You want to see the best,
So I want to hear good jokes.

Speaker 11 (33:47):
Yeah, and to be fair, last night, I hadn't heard
any of the jokes, like it was all fresh stuff,
like he talked about the Titan.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
Titan dream country jokes.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
And talk about New Zealand because that's what he wanted.

Speaker 12 (34:03):
Did talk about New Zealand.

Speaker 11 (34:04):
He's made fun of the name New Zealand and Auckland
and he's like, why do you guys put land on everything?
And maybe make believe he goes. You wonder why Taylor
Swift didn't come in. She probably doesn't know what exists,
but it's fate.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
You're sitting to an older couple.

Speaker 12 (34:19):
Yeah, and they were the sweetest. I would have been
like my parents' age. And every joke that he said,
they were like, that's very can you do that?

Speaker 3 (34:26):
That's it?

Speaker 12 (34:27):
And I was like, oh they feel heard.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
How many Taylor snorts out of team did you give?

Speaker 12 (34:35):
Mat I was a pig last night?

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I was like, non was better than Kevin Hart.

Speaker 12 (34:41):
Yeah, by far.

Speaker 11 (34:42):
And I loved Kevin Hart, but Jerry it's he's just
a man on stage with a microphone. With Kevin, it's
like music, seea lights the whole production, and he relies
on swear where it's a lot to get laugh which
I do as well.

Speaker 12 (34:54):
So correct Jerry. It's just like him pointing facts straight.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
Fat oh, Jerry Seifeld last night produced Taler.

Speaker 8 (35:02):
Went along the hits that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Billionaire businessman Eli Muski or No from owning Twitter. He's
now called it X and Tesla as well. Just became
a father for the twelfth time over the last couple
of days. He's had five kids in the last six years. Yeah,
the three different mums. I think throughout the twelve kids.

Speaker 4 (35:22):
It just realized one of them he had in twenty
twenty with Grimes. It was like X something something something,
But he just named Twitter after his son.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
X called X. This one called Techno as well.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
He looks at hard drive and sort of USB, cable
and things.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
Congratulations to him twelve.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
He seems like a busy guy. Time to have children.
How does he squeeze that in? And we'll tell you what.
I was busy last week and I was running late
for an appointment that was on the other side of town,
and I made rush to get there. Okay, came misticking
to the speed limit and then I finally turned up
and I'm sitting in reception, and I'm getting there's another
person in reception, and I'm getting who the hell's this chump?

(36:01):
Sort of energy from the other person of a reception
towards me, so I can feel it all right.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Then they're thinking that you're coming in to take their slot.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
So I just can feel something that's not right, okay,
And then it's the wonderful acupuncture lady that I go
and see, and she walks out and goes, oh, like
a surprise look. And you never want that when you've
traveled across town to a reception. You don't want to
catch the person that is expecting you with a look
of not expecting you. And she's like, you're not meant

(36:29):
to be here. I seen your text, but you never
confirmed the time. Hold on me. No one else has
apart from me. But how lovely is this? The other
lady who is singing receptions, like, listen, if you really
need this appointment, you can take my slot.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
How lovely is that?

Speaker 3 (36:47):
Did you take it?

Speaker 2 (36:48):
Absolutely? Did?

Speaker 1 (36:51):
Now the lady had broken back journey rolling out the door.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
See you later.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
No, But I was like, there's some great people lift
the world up. There's some truly horrific ones. As well,
but there's some this is a lovely gesture. Someone was like, yeah,
things will take you up on then.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
Off, so you dont like, who's back is the sore
old old man of mines. I can do that.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
I can't and you can't prove it. I was like,
when you argue with your partner about who's more tired,
there's no actual evidence. So this is what we want
to throw open this morning. We're at the right place,
just at the wrong time.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
I had one a couple of years ago getting my
yearly mole map as well. Turned up, waited there for
a long time. It was busy, and then I was like, oh, hey,
am I going to be seen soon? And they went yeah,
in about a week's time. I had the right day,
right time, just totally. The guy said a great line
to me. He was like, good dress rehearsal, we'll see
you next week. I was like, okay, cool, now I

(37:51):
know where to park all those.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Things you do like a dress rehearsal, though too, didn't
you run into an elderly gentleman while you're on holiday
on the Gold Coast you're doing a dress rehearsal.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
I'll stake it this place just chatting to him downstairs.
I was waiting for my family, and I was like, oh,
you're enjoying the place, and he said, oh, we're not
staying here at the moment. We're staying next week. But
they'd driven like an hour and a half just to
check out the place with his wife boomers, but just
to check out the place, a feeling for it, barking
and he's like, yeah, we're coming back next week. Yeah wow.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
And you turned up right place, wrong time.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
Ah No.

Speaker 4 (38:24):
But it's my fear with flights, like I've just always
double checking. I think I booked one in the wrong
year one time, but they let me change it because
I forget that beforehand. But there's just like my worst
fear missing a flight turning up effect the day after.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
That John and Ben podcast, Okay, right place, wrong time,
but it mixed up and comms and I turned up
to an appointment that wasn't even an appointment, and mix
up and comms was me being an absolute idiot.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
All on me was it was you can see how
it happened.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
Yeah, and you drive home and you know, and you know,
book another time, and like, I'm not going to book
Joe for an hour for just a bit of a laugh.
So right place, the wrong time, some amazing text messages
coming through here. I arrived early to our our wedding.
I was the bride. I arrived before most of the guests.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
I was so stressed about traffic.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
That's unusual.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
That's really well done.

Speaker 3 (39:20):
Everyone will wait for you. You're the event.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Well, speaking of waiting, there's another TC in four for
eighty seven, my mother in law was forty five minutes
late for our wedding. I was waiting at the end
of the aisle for her to arrive. She waltzon forty
five minutes late. How does that sit with you? A
Megan Peppers, No, I don't.

Speaker 3 (39:39):
Think I'd be stoked about it.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Was she apology to the whole the wedding for her,
I guess for mother in law, Yeah, I guess. It
grew to be plower on this guy.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
Come on, no one wants the wrath of starting that
without the mother in law.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
But what point do you go?

Speaker 2 (39:58):
You got to pull the pin sometime. I arrived home
very early to surprise my man, and I caught him
in bed with his girlfriend. Oh, there was a hell
of a surprise.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Right place, wrong time, definitely that's a nice situation.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
Let's get fi owner and welcome to the show, Fiona.
How are you goad?

Speaker 10 (40:16):
How are you going doing well?

Speaker 8 (40:18):
Mate?

Speaker 2 (40:18):
Right place, wrong time?

Speaker 10 (40:21):
Yeah, now this has become family law. It wasn't actually met.
It was my auntie, so shout out to Annie Karen
if she's listening. She organized a kid three weeken away
with her and I think it was three other couples
down to Wellington for a concert. So flight, accommodation, everything,
they got there and they were a weekend early.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Oh, and there's not a lot they can move you.
They can put you in because of the accommodation will
be taken up.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
What happened? Where did they find accommodation?

Speaker 10 (40:49):
So I think in the end of day, I think
they have been that to dinner. They just turned it
into a weekend and said, you know what, let's just
have a good time. And then my uncle, her brother
lives in Wellington, so he took the ticket to the
following weekend and we forgot that.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
Solutions.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah, we had a situation where back in the day,
for when I was doing some stuff for sky Sports,
totally wrong got there. It was basically accommodation already gone
to someone else, it's screwed it up. So we ended
up having the like Airbnb, but it was this lady.
O lovely old lady got out of her house and
we say that I was in there like a grandkids
room with all these pictures on. This is but weird.

Speaker 17 (41:26):
It was.

Speaker 2 (41:27):
I don't know, did you stay in her house?

Speaker 3 (41:31):
What did you say?

Speaker 8 (41:32):
The master?

Speaker 1 (41:32):
Someone else was at the master.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Whatever. The old lady.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
Was very unusual, but it was this friendly part.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
Of New Zealand produced Taylor. You used to work in
the airline industry.

Speaker 11 (41:48):
Yeah, and I can say it happened so many times
when someone would come and check in and I type
in their surname, couldn't find them where you're flying to,
checked up the plane number, couldn't find them, and there itinerary,
and I'd see, well, honey, you're actually here a Monday early.

Speaker 12 (42:02):
You need to come this time.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
Next please tell me you so you delivered it like.

Speaker 11 (42:05):
That, absolutely, It's amazing. Do you know how fun that
is to do that?

Speaker 12 (42:10):
Like here's someone wrong.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
Your finger through your heir.

Speaker 12 (42:16):
You can do that when you wear red lipstick and stockings.

Speaker 2 (42:19):

five weeks too early for an operation.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
How do you get
