Speaker 1 (00:01):
With the John and Ben podcast. Cheers to Delmark making
the world a bitter tea.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yeah, Spring yesterday, question Mark, Well, a lot of people
are saying it was, so we'll go with it. But
a wild start on the first of September over the weekend,
ninety thousand lightning strikes in the North Island alone, ninety thousand.
It was wild and I reckon the mixt A couple
of weeks are going to be really missy and unsettled
weather wires around the country.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yeah, I got woken up by a thunderstorm.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
It was like it was all over the weekend on Saturday,
and my daughter and was like, you can get lightning
and thunder and see it and you're like, Jesus shell
not no, they just keept going. Did it start to
rok because sometimes it was strangel they keep going, lightning,
thunder going on around.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
I'm standing by a tall metal pole. I'm not down
for this.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I was like, and I felt like a bad period.
I'm like, I'm going to go stand under the shelter
and watch from quite far away.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Sometimes it's great if you can get a car park
just on the edge of the court and you look
through the wine I'm definitely watching. I'm saying, yeah, no
good sport. And you know, God form the nitball force
behind a weeken love it.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
They plow on and the thing was so okay, sorry
to go on. This ran going inside. You've been to
the Sable courts before. There are three courts inside and
no one was using them.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Like premiers but doesn't want it was.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Like it was lightning and thunder and there are three.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Courts and how they could have decide who gets a
three courts.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Hat like us?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Some lucky souls get to stay dry.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Great sports, like no rubbish bins there either, I find cafe.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
But then I was leaving the other night. They were
just people are just leaving mounted of a rubbish on
the court.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Wants to take it with you.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
People are like, well buy some bins in, I'll just
leave it on the court.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Hey were speaking of all things. Daughters. My daughter Poppy
bry she just comes.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
And sporadically and rearranges my phone from time to time.
So about six or seven months.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Ago it was it color coded last time.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah yeah, color coded all my apps so they all
set in little folders under different colors. And it really
threw me out because you're so used to your you know,
your automatic response just clicking on an app where it
is located.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
And some of them, like the photos app is multiple
colors shedding it.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
She's got all the grays together with your camera settings calculator.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's aesthetically pleasing though, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
That's what she said.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
She said aesthetic that's her word. Very mindful, very demure.
Here's another one that's the one they keep saying about.
Yeah demure. It's TikTok. It's gone from does mean though,
it's just one.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
TikToker did a video saying this is how I do
my makeup very much.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
You know how hot tours that. It was the phrase
very mindful, very demurs at the moment. So yeah, that
was so. Now I just know apps by their color,
you know, not by their designs.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
You name it, app will tell you what color it is.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Porn Hub, I just.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Everything's categorized. U's a friendly experience.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Next, Making of social media. I want to play this
to you from UK and Media next, which will explain
I think the rabbit hole we all go down in
social media. That's in three minutes.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
The heads that Jona wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
You just been targeted by something You've done a bit
of digging and that there's a scam guing around it.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
The yeah, this is Auntie giving you a PSR a
public service Announcements, Public.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Servers review recommendation.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
These are Facebook ads that go around and I've seen them.
Nothing to do like no disrespect to the brands I'm
about to mention because they has nothing to do with them.
But like Peter Alexander and Country Road are the two
that I've seen, and they have like home were sale
or like sale on pajamas and you go through and
it all looks legit, so you're like thinking you're going
to get all these things for like ridiculously cheap. And
(04:11):
then the only thing that eluded me was that the
u r L has nothing to do with the brand.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
It'll say like store closing sale or something nothing to do.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
With the shot that you're in. So I just did
a week Google search and these scams that are going
around these days. These websites are like created a month ago.
The reviews are all fake. So you you once you
go through and put all your credit card details in,
you think you're getting all these things and the stuff
never comes.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Well, they've really leveled up.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It is hard to predict now, especially when you're his
old mate. Back to Whe's he going, yeah, a I
we're talking with our one of our bosses, Craig, And
he said he he gets tonight tonight. Yeah. And so
he was fed and air with Bruce Springsteen talking, go,
(05:02):
hey man, after all my years of rocking out to
Born in the USA, I got to to know and
he's like, oh, well here and he had a solution
that you could put your credit card and there's this
wonderful medicine you can take, and Craigs all, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Next day, Mick Jagger's doing the same thing.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
And then he's like, hold on, why would Bruce Springsteen
and McJagger two are probably the wealthiest musicians on the
face of the earth have to resort to doing an
influencer campaign. Then he looks closer and the lips, the
movement of the lips was just slightly off, but he
had to look really hard fakes.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Yeahs, you're right, Yeah, it's kind of scary. What's happening now?
Many people like, you know, Craig, it's smart God almost going.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
To smart girl, you're smart too?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
When no, almost, Yeah, almost clicked all my details in there.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I just don't trust anything.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Nothing that comes through texts, any emails being going mate.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
You late.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
For general rule of thumb, if it looks too good
to be true, like a cure for his tonight as
one million tonet, it probably is.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Yeah, all right, let's see lesson this morning. Hey, next,
why toast was banned and caused an uproar in Wellington
just a couple of days ago? Were you would you
have eaten toast in this situation? Absolutely well, apparently you
weren't allowed a couple of days ago in Wellington. But
it's back. We'll tell you why next.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
On the Hats the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Wellington Hospital and the news of the last couple of
days they got rid of toast. Wasn't their decision, but
they got rid of toast for mothers who had just
given birth. It was off the menu and it sparked
a bit of public outrage. And now toast is back
on the menu.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
According to why you say it wasn't their decision, but
whose decision was it?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
They said, I got advice from dietitians because someone asked
for a toast after they'd given birth. And they said, oh, sorry,
we can't do that anymore. We've had our breed supply
taken off us.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Good luck. Saying that to a woman is.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Just getting Yeah, I love toast, and I'm really sorry.
And then obviously it went out on social media. Now
they've gone, okay, it's now an option.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yeah, I love Yeah, social media a bit of a
social media But she does get results? Does it does?
Sometimes it does companies, buddy or organizations. They parts of
their body really shrivel up as soon as the social
media campaign starts to get Oh god.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Those are women that have just been nine months being
deprived of so many things.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
And then you're like, we just want just a piece
of toast.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
You're allowed toast while you exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Yeah, so give it to them afterwards too, Like, just
give them.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
What they want, what they want. Yeah, you're right, But
a lot of people have that that meal or that
one food item after giving birth that they haven't been
able to have. What was it for you?
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Mine was like poached eggs, runny eggs. Not really supposed
to have those.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, some people are very strict.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
A glass of bubbles and a sick no.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Tail, much like my wife sushi was a big thing.
You know, Salmon sushi is what produced Taylor want once
after she's given birth, and I.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Just wanted to hummus too. You're not supposed to have that.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
But how do you know who knows? Who knows all
this stuff? Hopefully the doctors.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
It's like foods that can harbor some sort of bacteria.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I see, got the stuff on the deli section and stuff.
Some people are a bit more strict on it than others.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Right, Yeah, someone who ate raw seafood all the way
through the fancy no issues.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I guess it's a gamble. Yeah, I mean you look
back probably to win our parents what sort of wild
stuff they would have been.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
We're smoking and drinking, I know, but.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
It's not we turned into it.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Organ is careful but mindful.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
If it's for the best exactly, if it's for the
best for it, you know, for a numbering child, then
you're going to do it right.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
What's the one food that you would go into bat for?
You're like I would, I would fight for their food.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
What do you mean, like my favorite food or I
feel like soap? I feel like soap.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Soup?
Speaker 5 (09:04):
No isn't like to bet for it like soupers legit
and people don't give it enough credit.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
There's not enough respect.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
It's not like the one food you're like, geez, I
could do his soup right now.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
You just do like I do.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Like that's such a random I mean, I don't mind soup,
that's for sure, but.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
It's not a guy thing because my husband's like it's
just watery.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Like what it's great, you know, Yeah, but that's it's
either like an appetizer or like, I don't know, I'm
trying to think. I like lots of different types of foods. Yeah,
you're going to bed for hammers.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Yeah, if you had to fight to the death, would
be for snacking nuts or something.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Of like soup is more broad delicious. You went in
for hummus and.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Nuts, those many little peggets and nuts you can't even
put your fingers.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
And yeah, get bigger ones. I can snack all down
snacking nuts, these nuts.
Speaker 4 (09:58):

one food that you would really go into bed.

It is the Hats, the Hats, the Jonaan Ben podcasting.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
With you on the hat. So it's senving us a
debate off the radio, and we thought, well, maybe we
should throw it out there on hundred the Hats or
four for eights. Even if New Zealand had amount Rushmore
Mountain and that's obviously would have presidents. So let's keep
taking away from the politics. It's just a four famous
kiwis carved into stone into rock. Who will those four
kiwis being? So it's a joyin waste text per money.
(10:54):
That would be the first that. Yeah, and then we
have a referendum about whether we should do the thing
which millions on there.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
And now it's happening.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
So we went through those twelve months of you're right,
it's not going to happen again. We're not going to
carve a mountain cook or something up like this. Does
it have to be a person?

to say we're in spring right now. But as I
mentioned earlier this morning, a spring arrived over the weekend
with ninety thousand lightning strikes in the North Island and
some unsettled weather over the next couple of weeks. As
we slowly creep our way this summer.

like they've got grandstands with it playing so quite far
removed from.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
The actual court.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
But I'm sitting up there yelling advice down, get the
ball on the hoop, stop them from getting the ball
on the hoop. I can tell that people's like, yeah, well,
that's the idea of the game, know, And I'm just
yelling advice. And then I'm like, asked him on the
way home, I was like, can you hear what I'm saying?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Is like, no, kind of.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I can hear shoes squeaking, I can hear basketball. I
can sometimes hear the crowd cheering, but not it's not specific.
But and I'm like, who's this advice for. I'm just
yelling out of live commentary of the game to the people.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
In the grand stands aggressivel supportive.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
That's supportive, but then sometimes you're like a.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Supportive the actual Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
But then halfway through a game, I was like, this
is a very redundant exercise. No one can hear me.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But I guess, well, maybe i'm mass and sport and
biggest sporting games as well. No one's going to hear
specific things people young out at the Warriors game or
you know.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
The good one is do f it's a nice starts
some chants or something apparent chance risk.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Some of you there caught it on your phone, please
try and start a check.
Speaker 2 (21:01):

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Could you anything more awkward than to.
Speaker 13 (21:06):
Stand up and defense and then to make your arms
like everyone's got and then and then start a time out.
How quickly you sit down and show I might even
bring a keyboard long d yes, I've stopped screaming advice
to no one.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
And of course the Paralympics are on at the moment
on Paris. Some amazing, amazing performances going on. And one
of the athletes that's got a lot of attention over
the last couple of days. She's seventeen years old from India.
Shettle Davy is her name. But she does archery with
no arms, incredible with the feet. It's just an amazing
and just so incredibly good at it. She's very accurate, Yeah,
(26:44):
very accurate. So yes, she's creating a lot of attention
for how amazing she is. Sometimes you look at it,
this is more impressive than the actual room gripping the
arch with the toes pulling it back with their right leg.
It's just, yeah, a really amazing feat.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Well put it on the blody suit to sole a circuit. Yeah,
this type of stuff you see in selay is impressive.
Yesterday we had a dem Megan. Someone slid into your
DM's Meghan Noy but concerned their wife was going to
work taking off her wedding ring because she was in
the role of sales.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
She reckoned.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
It boosted her sales, so it seems as though she's
going to work and like there's some fluting happening or whatever,
and it was getting her more attention and more sales.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Those monthly targets through the roof. And she's not the
only one have listened.
Speaker 14 (27:28):
Well, I had my diamond fall ATIM my wed episode
was sent in four repairs right and as I was
calling on my clients so we'd notice it and it
was like a total different person. On the other side,
I worked predominantly in the male industry. The sales came
in twice as much, even more.
Speaker 10 (27:47):
Than ever I've been in a sales role before in
a male dominated industry. And I think, as long as
you're going to sound of it shallow, a good looking
woman with a bit of charisma and personality. They don't
really care. I've got the wedding ring.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Yeah, male dominated industries not a good advit for male
dominated industries?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Is radio a male dominated industry?

Sorry, I can't hear you underneath the glass glass ceiling
of yours. Here, mate, we're up here a good time.

Yeah, you're right, Megan. You know, like there could be
a lot more females on there, you know, and.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Maybe a management behind Yeah, maybe you're just all over.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Yeah, thanks for bringing up work, as I did ask

a clever employ if you just work. Because I don't

Speaker 5 (28:55):
And the husband said that too, He was like, I
trust her, I don't think she's going to cheat, but
made him feel unt So what.
Speaker 2 (29:00):

little things that you say, and they're not necessarily huge
lie or anything, but just little things that help you
get some sort of advantage in your out of work.

Speaker 5 (29:36):
That's probably He's very popular if they if they ever
get a song on for you, it's because the song
was coming up anyway.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Sometimes though, to be fair, there are request shows.
Speaker 4 (29:45):

don't have any control over the music.

We want to know on your industry. Are you in sales,
car sales, whatever?
Speaker 4 (30:27):
You doing a shop retail?
Speaker 2 (30:28):
What are tricks of your trade that you do every day?
This one's for swarm.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
You're welcome the hats the heads that John wan Ben
podcast talk about tricks of your trade, what you do
to make the sale, get the customer across the line.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
Remember a few years ago we uh it was about
eight years ago, winning bought a calf my wife and
you know, after the process, the back and forth negotiation,
sitting in his office, Okay, hands behind the head, asserting
full power dominant. This was the guy sound in the car, Yeah,
isn't it. You know we had a boss used to
(31:05):
put his feet on the desk too. That was full
powered power dominance, wasn't it. But yeah, he on his
hands behind the behind the head, and he's like, we're
just about to buy the car. He's like, why use
your money when you can use ours? And then he
slid over a piece of paper for a wonderful loan
that we could take from the very high interest.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Why use your buddy when you can use Yeah, and he.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Was dead right, and so we used his money. It
was the hands behind the head, but tricks you trade.
Great text here from Richard four four eight seven obviously
works in the bacon game. What we do is we
opened all the windows in the shop to make it
colder inside, and then people buy more pies when it's cold.
They buy pie sales through the roof. Cheeky genius now
(31:56):
Grace producer Grace. In a former life, you were a
retail manager, Yes, I was. They're playing all sorts of
mind games.
Speaker 7 (32:03):
We had a similar one to Richard, where would have
the ac so cold in summer. When people would walk past,
they'd feel it and then just come in because it
was so hot. And then from there they'd look and
then the store that's.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Really good, so much stuff that way, have it on
like nine nine degrees or.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Something freezing for us, yeah, good for everyone else.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
And so what like when someone's trying something on you
and your heart. You know that it doesn't look good.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Did you lie to people? I always said I would
never lie.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
I would suggest other things.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
I could never do it.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
I could never do it because that's just mean.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Did other people that were you told? Like you just
tell them it looks bloody good on them and make
that sale.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Definitely weird. Yeah, I've allay out of a.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Shop with a lot of stuff and I've got something
different to me that looks great.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
You can always do that.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
Oh like, maybe buy it, take it home and think
about it. You can always return it, but people wouldn't
have the effort to come back.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I always did that, always.
Speaker 7 (32:56):
Suggest that returning so easy, but people never would.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
Can you do you know if the mirrors and changing
rooms are concaved are slightly curved, because sometimes you look
and you're like, I look great, it's getting and then
you get home and you're like, this looks different at home.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
I think it's I think it's a lighting thing for us.
Speaker 7 (33:13):
We didn't have them, but I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Maybe they do now.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
So is it worth WHI when we get to the
counter trying to haggle you down, Oh my god, no,
do people try.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
And haggle, yes, and I can't do anything like it's
it's the price.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
But some places I wouldn't say clothing, so some places
do go I'll give you, but i'll knock something off. Now. Yeah,
now is that it.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
I'm already you know, it's already on the boxes being
sold for that price.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
They're the lowest.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Price you can do.
Speaker 10 (33:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
What I used to do it was if you spend
a certain amount, you could get money back. So if
you had a big transaction, I would split it, split
it into two transactions. So you do the first transaction,
then I'd get you that money back to use on
the second transaction.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
You're very nice everyone.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
Yeah, you're a retail person with a heart. So you
could sleep at night. Some great texts coming through four
four eight seven. I always say, when someone asks for
a low price, let me just go out in the back.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
And check with the manager.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
I go out the back, have a babe, come back
and say the manager said they'll knock it off.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
So look like you're ready doing things there right, So good,

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Of course, I'm going through a bit of a rig
roll that I'd like your assistance on if you could.
At home.
Speaker 5 (34:59):
We're trying to get out Oddler's passports. One is three
and one is one. So we've actually managed to do
the three year old amazingly. I had a photo that
they accepted because you know, I have to go and
it's like it needs to be this high, nothing in
the background, then facing directly at the camera.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
And upload money.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
You're like, this is the one I've.
Speaker 5 (35:20):
So I actually I managed to upload one and then
I got the email like the next day being like no, no, no, no, no,
system does not accept. You'd appreciate this, so I found
a picture of my one year old. It looked like
it was going to pass, but it was busy in
the background. So I used AI to clear the background. Yeah,
(35:40):
real clever, and they accepted it on the website and
then I got the message being like it seems that
this has been altered by artificial intelligence.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
I was like, oh they know.
Speaker 12 (35:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
I was thinking if it couldn't detect day, that's a
big four in the passport system.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
But you met as they do. So now I have
to try and get a photo of my one year old,
who is this is naming.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
They have to be face on and if I managed
to get her looking at the cameras, everything.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Has to be right, particularly that age.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's it's almost was just leaving them at home, just
like you stay here, we can't get your passport.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
So because last night you was just showing us she
had quite a good hack.
Speaker 5 (36:23):
So she was at her high chair, she was eating dinner.
I was like distracted, great, and so one of us
was leaning over the dinner table to get her face
on and I was holding up a white board behind.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Her because the background has to be clear. Can't do
it with AI. But I still haven't managed to get
her direct facing the camera.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
It looked pretty good to me, but hey, I'm not
I'm not real me.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Yeah, I had to remember when Andy was young, my
daughter going into the chemist and we had to lie
her down. They put the sheet down, you know, the
gray background, and lay her down on the floor of
the chemist and then stood over the top to try
and get that done. That was a shambles like work
with him like twenty minutes trying to look at the camera.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
It would have been easier if they were like babies.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
That was just the thing that always blows my balls.
As the passport saying you have the photo as a
baby that lasts for five or six years.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Yeah, they can travel on that photo.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
For I know, they ask you their height. I was like, well,
give it a couple of months.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
And it'll be they you're right that year or two
You're like.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
But my friends said to her, she was like, I
covered myself in a white sheet and I set my
toddler on my knee and held on to them so
that the white sheet she was the white background behind.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's my next option.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
Wow, my passport photo, I talk, doesn't that look very like?
Speaker 2 (37:46):
What is your part? Did you get it sounds a
mug shot. Yeah, do you have to redo that again?
Speaker 6 (37:55):
You've got here though, Yeah, and I was back at
a good time long. I've seen it last for years. Ah,
but that was much year. But he's got all looks
a little disheveled day. You look like, I give him
what I have been caught doing some one of those articles.
You're like, you believe what this guy's doing now and
you're like, oh, I fag remember that I'm seclet too.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Anywayin't God accepted real me? I can't say that for you.
You won't be allowed to eat in countries though.
Speaker 4 (38:22):
Up looking like that, We'll put it on the the
hets break for social media, my passport photo and you know,
favorable comments only.

call me a loser. But at this time of the year,
it happened at the weekend. Nothing gets me more jazz
than having washing on the washing line, drying in the sun.
Speaker 4 (42:06):

There's a system.
Speaker 5 (42:29):
But like when it's sunny, your washing is on the
line and there's a gentle breeze, I just sit there
steering at it, being like this is good.
Speaker 2 (42:36):
You're saying, younger, mell call you loser. You never forget
about the washing and then it rains and you leave
it out there. God, it happens all the time. Judge
people that do that.

Yeah, Spring yesterday, question Mark, Well, a lot of people
are saying it was, so we'll go with it. But
a wild start on the first of September over the weekend,
ninety thousand lightning strikes in the North Island alone, ninety thousand.
It was wild and I reckon the mixt A couple
of weeks are going to be really missy and unsettled
weather wires around the country.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yeah, I got woken up by a thunderstorm.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
It was like it was all over the weekend on Saturday,
and my daughter and was like, you can get lightning
and thunder and see it and you're like, Jesus shell
not no, they just keept going. Did it start to
rok because sometimes it was strangel they keep going, lightning,
thunder going on around.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
I'm standing by a tall metal pole. I'm not down
for this.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I was like, and I felt like a bad period.
I'm like, I'm going to go stand under the shelter
and watch from quite far away.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Sometimes it's great if you can get a car park
just on the edge of the court and you look
through the wine I'm definitely watching. I'm saying, yeah, no
good sport. And you know, God form the nitball force
behind a weeken love it.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
They plow on and the thing was so okay, sorry
to go on. This ran going inside. You've been to
the Sable courts before. There are three courts inside and
no one was using them.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Like premiers but doesn't want it was.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Like it was lightning and thunder and there are three.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Courts and how they could have decide who gets a
three courts.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Hat like us?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Some lucky souls get to stay dry.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Great sports, like no rubbish bins there either, I find cafe.

But then I was leaving the other night. They were
just people are just leaving mounted of a rubbish on
the court.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Wants to take it with you.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
People are like, well buy some bins in, I'll just
leave it on the court.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Hey were speaking of all things. Daughters. My daughter Poppy
bry she just comes.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
And sporadically and rearranges my phone from time to time.
So about six or seven months.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Ago it was it color coded last time.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah yeah, color coded all my apps so they all
set in little folders under different colors. And it really
threw me out because you're so used to your you know,
your automatic response just clicking on an app where it
is located.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
And some of them, like the photos app is multiple
colors shedding it.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
She's got all the grays together with your camera settings calculator.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's aesthetically pleasing though, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
That's what she said.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
She said aesthetic that's her word. Very mindful, very demure.
Here's another one that's the one they keep saying about.
Yeah demure. It's TikTok. It's gone from does mean though,
it's just one.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
TikToker did a video saying this is how I do
my makeup very much.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
You know how hot tours that. It was the phrase
very mindful, very demurs at the moment. So yeah, that
was so. Now I just know apps by their color,
you know, not by their designs.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
You name it, app will tell you what color it is.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Porn Hub, I just.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Everything's categorized. U's a friendly experience.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Next, Making of social media. I want to play this
to you from UK and Media next, which will explain
I think the rabbit hole we all go down in
social media. That's in three minutes.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
The heads that Jona wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
You just been targeted by something You've done a bit
of digging and that there's a scam guing around it.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
The yeah, this is Auntie giving you a PSR a
public service Announcements, Public.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Servers review recommendation.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
These are Facebook ads that go around and I've seen them.
Nothing to do like no disrespect to the brands I'm
about to mention because they has nothing to do with them.
But like Peter Alexander and Country Road are the two
that I've seen, and they have like home were sale
or like sale on pajamas and you go through and
it all looks legit, so you're like thinking you're going
to get all these things for like ridiculously cheap. And
(04:11):
then the only thing that eluded me was that the
u r L has nothing to do with the brand.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
It'll say like store closing sale or something nothing to do.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
With the shot that you're in. So I just did
a week Google search and these scams that are going
around these days. These websites are like created a month ago.
The reviews are all fake. So you you once you
go through and put all your credit card details in,
you think you're getting all these things and the stuff
never comes.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Well, they've really leveled up.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It is hard to predict now, especially when you're his
old mate. Back to Whe's he going, yeah, a I
we're talking with our one of our bosses, Craig, And
he said he he gets tonight tonight. Yeah. And so
he was fed and air with Bruce Springsteen talking, go,
(05:02):
hey man, after all my years of rocking out to
Born in the USA, I got to to know and
he's like, oh, well here and he had a solution
that you could put your credit card and there's this
wonderful medicine you can take, and Craigs all, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Next day, Mick Jagger's doing the same thing.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
And then he's like, hold on, why would Bruce Springsteen
and McJagger two are probably the wealthiest musicians on the
face of the earth have to resort to doing an
influencer campaign. Then he looks closer and the lips, the
movement of the lips was just slightly off, but he
had to look really hard fakes.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Yeahs, you're right, Yeah, it's kind of scary. What's happening now?
Many people like, you know, Craig, it's smart God almost going.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
To smart girl, you're smart too?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
When no, almost, Yeah, almost clicked all my details in there.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I just don't trust anything.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Nothing that comes through texts, any emails being going mate.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
You late.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
For general rule of thumb, if it looks too good
to be true, like a cure for his tonight as
one million tonet, it probably is.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Yeah, all right, let's see lesson this morning. Hey, next,
why toast was banned and caused an uproar in Wellington
just a couple of days ago? Were you would you
have eaten toast in this situation? Absolutely well, apparently you
weren't allowed a couple of days ago in Wellington. But
it's back. We'll tell you why next.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
On the Hats the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Wellington Hospital and the news of the last couple of
days they got rid of toast. Wasn't their decision, but
they got rid of toast for mothers who had just
given birth. It was off the menu and it sparked
a bit of public outrage. And now toast is back
on the menu.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
According to why you say it wasn't their decision, but
whose decision was it?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
They said, I got advice from dietitians because someone asked
for a toast after they'd given birth. And they said, oh, sorry,
we can't do that anymore. We've had our breed supply
taken off us.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Good luck. Saying that to a woman is.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Just getting Yeah, I love toast, and I'm really sorry.
And then obviously it went out on social media. Now
they've gone, okay, it's now an option.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yeah, I love Yeah, social media a bit of a
social media But she does get results? Does it does?
Sometimes it does companies, buddy or organizations. They parts of
their body really shrivel up as soon as the social
media campaign starts to get Oh god.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Those are women that have just been nine months being
deprived of so many things.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
And then you're like, we just want just a piece
of toast.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
You're allowed toast while you exactly.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Yeah, so give it to them afterwards too, Like, just
give them.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
What they want, what they want. Yeah, you're right, But
a lot of people have that that meal or that
one food item after giving birth that they haven't been
able to have. What was it for you?
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Mine was like poached eggs, runny eggs. Not really supposed
to have those.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, some people are very strict.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
A glass of bubbles and a sick no.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Tail, much like my wife sushi was a big thing.
You know, Salmon sushi is what produced Taylor want once
after she's given birth, and I.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Just wanted to hummus too. You're not supposed to have that.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
But how do you know who knows? Who knows all
this stuff? Hopefully the doctors.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
It's like foods that can harbor some sort of bacteria.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I see, got the stuff on the deli section and stuff.
Some people are a bit more strict on it than others.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Right, Yeah, someone who ate raw seafood all the way
through the fancy no issues.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I guess it's a gamble. Yeah, I mean you look
back probably to win our parents what sort of wild
stuff they would have been.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
We're smoking and drinking, I know, but.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
It's not we turned into it.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Organ is careful but mindful.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
If it's for the best exactly, if it's for the
best for it, you know, for a numbering child, then
you're going to do it right.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
What's the one food that you would go into bat for?
You're like I would, I would fight for their food.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
What do you mean, like my favorite food or I
feel like soap? I feel like soap.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Soup?
Speaker 5 (09:04):
No isn't like to bet for it like soupers legit
and people don't give it enough credit.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
There's not enough respect.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
It's not like the one food you're like, geez, I
could do his soup right now.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
You just do like I do.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Like that's such a random I mean, I don't mind soup,
that's for sure, but.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
It's not a guy thing because my husband's like it's
just watery.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Like what it's great, you know, Yeah, but that's it's
either like an appetizer or like, I don't know, I'm
trying to think. I like lots of different types of foods. Yeah,
you're going to bed for hammers.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Yeah, if you had to fight to the death, would
be for snacking nuts or something.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Of like soup is more broad delicious. You went in
for hummus and.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Nuts, those many little peggets and nuts you can't even
put your fingers.

four for eights. Even if New Zealand had amount Rushmore
Mountain and that's obviously would have presidents. So let's keep
taking away from the politics. It's just a four famous
kiwis carved into stone into rock. Who will those four
kiwis being? So it's a joyin waste text per money.

Oh my god, that's right.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Homes was a legend.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
It was legion of the game. It was radio broadcasting
in an area where you'd walk in here with a
siggy dangling out of your mouth. You wouldn't leave the studio.
You just fill it up with nekeotine and cancer.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So he was on Mount Rushmore. You want to Sigi
just just dangling out homes and a SINGI.

He got a good boys the hits.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
That Jona wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
According to some of us, including the show, We're going
to say we're in spring right now. But as I
mentioned earlier this morning, a spring arrived over the weekend
with ninety thousand lightning strikes in the North Island and
some unsettled weather over the next couple of weeks. As
we slowly creep our way this summer.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Spring's always a bit tumultuous.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
Yeah, some of the lightning strikes are so loud. You
as the yeah, the elder statesman of the household. You
need to hold your you need to hold your stuff together.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Sometimes it's like crack and you're like, I know, because
you're a fright right he does. Here.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
There's some loud ones over the weekend. But been spending
the last four days at a basketball tournament. It's been
really fun. Actually, you know those those times we are
driving out to stuff and sometimes you can go, oh,
I could be doing other stuff now, But actually you
really enjoy it, and you've got to appreciate it because
one day you won't be driving out there to sports games.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
So no, I've really really loved it. Oscar, my son's
plays basketball.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Then I've realized I'm one of these people on the sideline,
not just on the sideline of the court. These are
like they've got grandstands with it playing so quite far
removed from.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
The actual court.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
But I'm sitting up there yelling advice down, get the
ball on the hoop, stop them from getting the ball
on the hoop. I can tell that people's like, yeah, well,
that's the idea of the game, know, And I'm just
yelling advice. And then I'm like, asked him on the
way home, I was like, can you hear what I'm saying?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Is like, no, kind of.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I can hear shoes squeaking, I can hear basketball. I
can sometimes hear the crowd cheering, but not it's not specific.
But and I'm like, who's this advice for. I'm just
yelling out of live commentary of the game to the people.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
In the grand stands aggressivel supportive.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
That's supportive, but then sometimes you're like a.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Supportive the actual Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
But then halfway through a game, I was like, this
is a very redundant exercise. No one can hear me.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But I guess, well, maybe i'm mass and sport and
biggest sporting games as well. No one's going to hear
specific things people young out at the Warriors game or
you know.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
The good one is do f it's a nice starts
some chants or something apparent chance risk.
Speaker 3 (20:59):

bring a keyboard long d yes, I've stopped screaming advice
to no one.

of the athletes that's got a lot of attention over
the last couple of days. She's seventeen years old from India.
Shettle Davy is her name. But she does archery with
no arms, incredible with the feet. It's just an amazing
and just so incredibly good at it. She's very accurate, Yeah,
(26:44):
very accurate. So yes, she's creating a lot of attention
for how amazing she is. Sometimes you look at it,
this is more impressive than the actual room gripping the
arch with the toes pulling it back with their right leg.
It's just, yeah, a really amazing feat.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Well put it on the blody suit to sole a circuit. Yeah,
this type of stuff you see in selay is impressive.
Yesterday we had a dem Megan. Someone slid into your
DM's Meghan Noy but concerned their wife was going to
work taking off her wedding ring because she was in
the role of sales.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
She reckoned.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
It boosted her sales, so it seems as though she's
going to work and like there's some fluting happening or whatever,
and it was getting her more attention and more sales.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Those monthly targets through the roof. And she's not the
only one have listened.
Speaker 14 (27:28):
Well, I had my diamond fall ATIM my wed episode
was sent in four repairs right and as I was
calling on my clients so we'd notice it and it
was like a total different person. On the other side,
I worked predominantly in the male industry. The sales came
in twice as much, even more.
Speaker 10 (27:47):
Than ever I've been in a sales role before in
a male dominated industry. And I think, as long as
you're going to sound of it shallow, a good looking
woman with a bit of charisma and personality. They don't
really care. I've got the wedding ring.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Yeah, male dominated industries not a good advit for male

Remember a few years ago we uh it was about
eight years ago, winning bought a calf my wife and
you know, after the process, the back and forth negotiation,
sitting in his office, Okay, hands behind the head, asserting
full power dominant. This was the guy sound in the car, Yeah,
isn't it. You know we had a boss used to
(31:05):
put his feet on the desk too. That was full
powered power dominance, wasn't it. But yeah, he on his
hands behind the behind the head, and he's like, we're
just about to buy the car. He's like, why use
your money when you can use ours? And then he
slid over a piece of paper for a wonderful loan
that we could take from the very high interest.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Why use your buddy when you can use Yeah, and he.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Was dead right, and so we used his money. It
was the hands behind the head, but tricks you trade.
Great text here from Richard four four eight seven obviously
works in the bacon game. What we do is we
opened all the windows in the shop to make it
colder inside, and then people buy more pies when it's cold.
They buy pie sales through the roof. Cheeky genius now
(31:56):
Grace producer Grace. In a former life, you were a
retail manager, Yes, I was. They're playing all sorts of
mind games.
Speaker 7 (32:03):
We had a similar one to Richard, where would have
the ac so cold in summer. When people would walk past,
they'd feel it and then just come in because it
was so hot. And then from there they'd look and
then the store that's.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Really good, so much stuff that way, have it on
like nine nine degrees or.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Something freezing for us, yeah, good for everyone else.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
And so what like when someone's trying something on you
and your heart. You know that it doesn't look good.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Did you lie to people? I always said I would
never lie.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
I would suggest other things.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
I could never do it.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
I could never do it because that's just mean.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Did other people that were you told? Like you just
tell them it looks bloody good on them and make
that sale.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Definitely weird. Yeah, I've allay out of a.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Shop with a lot of stuff and I've got something
different to me that looks great.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
You can always do that.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
Oh like, maybe buy it, take it home and think
about it. You can always return it, but people wouldn't
have the effort to come back.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I always did that, always.
Speaker 7 (32:56):
Suggest that returning so easy, but people never would.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
Can you do you know if the mirrors and changing
rooms are concaved are slightly curved, because sometimes you look
and you're like, I look great, it's getting and then
you get home and you're like, this looks different at home.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
I think it's I think it's a lighting thing for us.
Speaker 7 (33:13):
We didn't have them, but I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Maybe they do now.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
So is it worth WHI when we get to the
counter trying to haggle you down, Oh my god, no,
do people try.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
And haggle, yes, and I can't do anything like it's
it's the price.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
But some places I wouldn't say clothing, so some places
do go I'll give you, but i'll knock something off. Now. Yeah,
now is that it.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
I'm already you know, it's already on the boxes being
sold for that price.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
They're the lowest.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Price you can do.
Speaker 10 (33:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
What I used to do it was if you spend
a certain amount, you could get money back. So if
you had a big transaction, I would split it, split
it into two transactions. So you do the first transaction,
then I'd get you that money back to use on
the second transaction.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
You're very nice everyone.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
Yeah, you're a retail person with a heart. So you
could sleep at night. Some great texts coming through four
four eight seven. I always say, when someone asks for
a low price, let me just go out in the back.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
And check with the manager.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
I go out the back, have a babe, come back
and say the manager said they'll knock it off.
Speaker 2 (34:12):

At home.
Speaker 5 (34:59):
We're trying to get out Oddler's passports. One is three
and one is one. So we've actually managed to do
the three year old amazingly. I had a photo that
they accepted because you know, I have to go and
it's like it needs to be this high, nothing in
the background, then facing directly at the camera.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
And upload money.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
You're like, this is the one I've.
Speaker 5 (35:20):
So I actually I managed to upload one and then
I got the email like the next day being like no, no, no, no, no,
system does not accept. You'd appreciate this, so I found
a picture of my one year old. It looked like
it was going to pass, but it was busy in
the background. So I used AI to clear the background. Yeah,
(35:40):
real clever, and they accepted it on the website and
then I got the message being like it seems that
this has been altered by artificial intelligence.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
I was like, oh they know.
Speaker 12 (35:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
I was thinking if it couldn't detect day, that's a
big four in the passport system.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
But you met as they do. So now I have
to try and get a photo of my one year old,
who is this is naming.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
They have to be face on and if I managed
to get her looking at the cameras, everything.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Has to be right, particularly that age.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's it's almost was just leaving them at home, just
like you stay here, we can't get your passport.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
So because last night you was just showing us she
had quite a good hack.
Speaker 5 (36:23):
So she was at her high chair, she was eating dinner.
I was like distracted, great, and so one of us
was leaning over the dinner table to get her face
on and I was holding up a white board behind.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Her because the background has to be clear. Can't do
it with AI. But I still haven't managed to get
her direct facing the camera.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
It looked pretty good to me, but hey, I'm not
I'm not real me.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Yeah, I had to remember when Andy was young, my
daughter going into the chemist and we had to lie
her down. They put the sheet down, you know, the
gray background, and lay her down on the floor of
the chemist and then stood over the top to try
and get that done. That was a shambles like work
with him like twenty minutes trying to look at the camera.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
It would have been easier if they were like babies.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
That was just the thing that always blows my balls.
As the passport saying you have the photo as a
baby that lasts for five or six years.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Yeah, they can travel on that photo.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
For I know, they ask you their height. I was like, well,
give it a couple of months.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
And it'll be they you're right that year or two
You're like.
Speaker 5 (37:25):
But my friends said to her, she was like, I
covered myself in a white sheet and I set my
toddler on my knee and held on to them so
that the white sheet she was the white background behind.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's my next option.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
Wow, my passport photo, I talk, doesn't that look very like?
Speaker 2 (37:46):
What is your part? Did you get it sounds a
mug shot. Yeah, do you have to redo that again?
Speaker 6 (37:55):
You've got here though, Yeah, and I was back at
a good time long. I've seen it last for years. Ah,
but that was much year. But he's got all looks
a little disheveled day. You look like, I give him
what I have been caught doing some one of those articles.
You're like, you believe what this guy's doing now and
you're like, oh, I fag remember that I'm seclet too.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (38:15):

it happened at the weekend. Nothing gets me more jazz
than having washing on the washing line, drying in the sun.
