Yeah, welcome, lovely to have you here. How's how are
you guys, We've just done a show, and how are
you feeling after the show.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I'm good. We're having my rubarb again.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Loving your rhubarb at the moment.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
But Ben doesn't want rubab being to though.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
That's we went into it. Yeah, well no, I didn't
know produced Grace doesn't who does the podcast intro? Yesterday
after we did it, I thought it was quite fun.
We've gone on, talked about something else. I can't remember
what I think we started. We talked about something else.
She was like a half minutes with the intro. So yes,
keep it, keep it tight. There's not a great stuff.
It's yeah. I feel like we're like it's someone going along.
(00:46):
That's us. An example, I don't they want to see
Travis Scott and we're like we're at the gate and
they just want to get in and they want to
see Trevis Scott. We're like, I get to say, well,
you know, they're like, just want to get fast. Yeah, crowd,
I don't great, but I'm just going to try and
get in and see Travis Scott. You know, that's what we're
doing right now.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
You're saying, we're ready for Trevor Scott.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Now, yeah, we're holding people up from Trevor Scott. That's
what we're doing.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
So we're holding people up for ourselves. They have come here.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It's like another version, Okay, Trevor Scott, the going God's well,
back to the future. Get on. We send like a
future of us back somewhere and we stop us and
we're stopping oursel and we're like, we just want to
get to the Yeah. Anyway, So there's a.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Couple of analogies there.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, you get whatever it knows we need to shut
up and just let get listen to the podcast. All right,
here we go. I think obviously things get close close
now to the American election, and Obama's out campaigning at
the moment, doing his thing to help out, and Eminem
came out.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
What can I do to pull this thing back?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
He brought our eminem it, Yeah, which was pretty cool.
Eminem came out and you know, said some stuff to
the crowd as well. But Obama and his introduction, you know,
have a listen, No, I.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Notice our palms are sweating these week arms a heaven,
my swell running. I'm nervous, but I'm a surface. I'm
a calm and run it. Fordot bombs, but I keep
bumb forget it, dun, dun. I was gonna jump up there.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Charis caught up at the moment though.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
It runs cheering, and they're.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Eating the dogs, they're eating the catch, they're eating the
pets of the people that live there.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Can I say that in all due respect to women?
And I love women. I love women. So that's what's
going on over there in America? What's going on back
over here? Obviously we're heading into a long weekend and
Johno for some reason gets his parking fine scent to work,
its speeding fine spark work.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
What So we talk about it so his wife doesn't know, Well,
she knows me because you told me on the radio
over two we've known this about Have we got set
to hide? Yeah, you're right, we're right.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Talk about it at all. We have no idea. It
mostly gets us in here.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That would eliminate corner of the show's content to let
her get the parking tickets. So got more, got more, even.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Like two days ago he had more, and then he's
got more since then.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I got two speeding finds and you know where I'm
getting them from the same bloody speeding camera.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
They're back.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Makes you an idiot, Yeah, you haven't learned.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
It's it's a head job. It's a head job from
the New Zealand police. They're clawing back. The government's telling them, guys,
you're not meaning budgets. You're gonna have to lay off staff.
They're like, well, what's the elcha, we find people more,
we bring in more revenue. And now of my latest ticket, yeah, okay,
fifty nine kilometers, that's fifty nine kilometers. Now here's my issue.
(03:46):
We all know the unwritten road rule that you've got
ten k's Grace.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well that's what Yeah, that's where you see that the
other day actually to Grace, producer producing Grace and she
was like what she's a twenty three year old driver
and you're like, oh, I was always the thing it was, Yeah,
ten K's.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
What did they tell you when you were getting your license? Recently? Grace,
that's not a thing.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Ok. Great, they've been recently. They often talk about over
summer zero toler tolerance. So if you're going one k
over the speed, you king, but.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
They would allude that there is tolerance. Other times k tolerance.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I think there's like one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Or two K a pretty k grace.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
When we were doing our license back in the day,
you'd sit in the driving instructor and that'd be like, hey, mate,
you've got on this. You know you going fifty, so
you know when you're out there in the real world
and they gave you a wink. I know it is.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Fifty, but you know we all know that's sex. Yeah,
that's exactly right, and we all knew it was law.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
The police knew it. I think I've even passed police.
They were going fifty and I'm going sixty one and like,
get a guys, they made tin k's grace. We all
know what there is.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
They were going fifty.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
They've got to stick to them, did the police. But
they know the rules. We all know the rules.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Clearly, you don't.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
John's audition for news talks be great speaks.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
He got mad.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
It's the woke brigade coming in here finding me for
going nine k's over the speed limit.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
The thing is is it the same speed camera?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
And that's my other issue. Grace, thank you for informing.
She even got Google strip view out. She's like, here's
the camera. It's a mounted one, isn't it obvious? Yeah, Network, clearly,
I've never seen it. And even though I can, I
also say, why don't we program the speed cameras to go? Oh,
we've already, We've already snapped this poor bugger. Let's not
go two times, let's not even go three times? Three times?
Speaker 7 (05:29):
The hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Another being is they were it out of food stuff
and we're just hosting a little things from them. They're
celebrating Dwali at the moment. Geez, I tell you what
we're talking about. The best cuisine across the board last week,
weren't we? I'd say Indian, I've one of my top three.
That's great, love it beautiful, quite rich though isn't in
the sauces, but boy, it's a banging cuisine. The end
of cuisine was sucking back on some somosas, weren't we,
(05:54):
And there was a Duali performance.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
So it weren't even fundraising somosas. And then we would
get sucked up with that into the school thing. They
love moss for fundraising the kids start school. Mate, I
love tomosas. We've got so many somosas enough freezer.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
They're still sucks on back the other day.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Because there cocks prepared and good to go.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
You didn't have to donate to Cherry to try and.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Get my good daughter's netball team to the Ames Games.
You'll be hocking.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You'll be a professional somosa salesperson.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
When they once they hit, friends of ours were like,
hey can you Yeah, because my daughter, she's two years
older than Andy, she went to Aames games and friends
were like, hey, can you buy some somosas And most
of them are like, we've still got one from two
years ago. The last time you got us got.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Through THESS enough.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
But one of those things I need to get the
out of the freezer and good to go.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
But yes, there's a wonderful Dewali performance. Now my issue
is and it's not just with Dwale music, Indian music,
it's just any music. You know, some brave souls start
to clap along.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Okay, yes to that was me.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah I was clapping along. Now that comes with a
certain level responsibility.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
If you are the.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Initiator of the group clap, you're responsible for carrying on
the clap. But at some point people lose confidence in clapping,
don't they have? This is how it played out yesterday.
Were watching a wonderful Duali performance. That's wonderful, and I
started to clap, but I don't know when to stop. Yeah,
(07:23):
Ben fades out, slows down to just a single clap,
and there's a smattering of clapping in the rest of
the audience. And that's the problem with clapping, too, is
because once you start clapping, you're like, I'm focusing more
on the clapping than the performance of the song. When
you're at a concert.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
And you become very aware of who else is clapping, and.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You lose timing something white guy, I lose sometimes I
missed that one. Everyone else is that on another? Timing.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, it's musical, per appreciati but when someone when everyone
else is clapping, you've got to get up. Okay, Well,
can you still call it the Mexican Wave?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
I think so. Yeah, it's originated I think at the
Mexican Done. The back background originated at a big tournament
I came. Remember it was the Olympics or a football
tourna in Mexico. Nothing from a cultural sense, as far as.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
You know where it started.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It's got the name of a race or a country.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
He's going to do some research. I keep going, this
is all right, this is a right, but it's like,
I don't mean, I'm definitely note not the expert on
what you can to card do, don't we But I
did look into this and I think it's okay, all.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Right, Jose. The Musican wave, you feel you get bullied
into doing your musical wave because if you're the only
one sitting down and everyone else and how.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Many times round? Though, that's my thing as well.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Same as clip.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Three, I'm starting.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
That becomes how many times can you go round three
or four?
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I'm starting to go, I want to watch the cricket here, guys.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Same with clapping, people fade out of it, so don't
start it in the beginning. We'll have a rule, you know,
we've got we'll clap for the first to sort of
sort of chorus verse situation. We'll clap for it. We'll
do a couple of Mexican waves around the stadium, time
on it, and we enjoy what we're here.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
For We'll Got the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Something that was quite an awesome moment actually, and that
happened in the sports world yesterday, but it's made quite
a lot of attention. Lebron James, one of the greatest
basketball has ever got your hero, Yeah, yeah, I really
love Lebron. Yeah, and he got to play with his son,
Bronnie James got to play and on an NBA game again,
played the first game.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Because he plays for the Lakers now his son, Yeah
doesn't he had.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
You know, they got onto the court together, and it's
pretty historic. I think the first time a father and
son has ever played on the same team in the NBA.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
So history tonight, the first father son due to play
together in an NBA game.
Speaker 8 (09:41):
This is all in the family.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
What a celebration for the James family.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Pretty impressive. Else, Bronnie's the son.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
He's what twenty yeah, I think, yeah, around twenty. Lebron's
turning forty this year, so yeah, and still it's just incredible.
If you've watched the Netflix show, the thing is he
spins and does on the body, and you know.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
There's the rumor that he spends a million dollars a
year on his.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Body talks about that is I don't know where that
people got that from, but he does do a lot.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
I get there.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
His wife talks about it. He's got like this coffin
thing that he sort of puts some She's like cause
of a coff and he goes and zips up. It's
almost like a little tint and it sort of helps them.
It's like a cry o little thing, you know.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
Well, like when I'm forty now, I get out of
bed and I hurt myself. Yeah, well, sometimes you hurt
yourself and you don't even know where it came from.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I've done my neck and I was just pushing on
a swing Tuesday. I don't know what's happening. Actually just
breaking news. We've got the audio of Lebron he was
miked up. Is this moment was happening?
Speaker 9 (10:33):
Yeah, it's an intensity, right, just played carefree though we're
about mistakes. Is bling play hot?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
That's that's pretty cool. See that was a bit that
got me. It was just like you're ready, You're ready,
you know, I just go out there, don't worry about mistakes.
And it was a really lovely moment.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
What a special moment?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Can you do? It is special. It is really it
is her warmly moment in history, but probably will never
be repeated.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Imagically for that to work out, Timeline WHI is this incredible?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah? And the thing is you can't can you work
with your parents, because it's gonna get to the point
they're gonna get deep into the season. You can't tell
me what to do? Dead? You know.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
That's that's sweet at the start, Yeah, but then they're
going to do training together and like.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
What do you call them dead? You call lebron. My
mate's also worried about the changing rooms. It's like, what's
the showering situation? Dead?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
And when you're asking for the ball are you're like Dad?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I mean I you know, I just try and ask
my son to do we end up bickering and we're
firing away and can't tell me what to do exactly.
I mean, you do a podcast with your daughter, How
does that work out?
Speaker 1 (11:39):
I think it works out for the most part pretty well.
Actually have all the things we do together, it's it's
actually really special. It's a really cool thing to do.
To be able to do it out with her. You know,
there's not many things that I know a little bit
a little bit about. So it's quite nice to be
able to you know, I'm not calling myself an expert,
but it's quite nice to be able to do that with.
And there have been some you know, you've all done
broadcasting and radio and stuff, and you so many things
(12:01):
you're like, what is this and what's this? It's nice
to have someone to kind of well, I hope I'm
that person, because you know, I don't know, but does
she is?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
She like, yeah, I get it, dad.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Well sometimes she's like you've explained that three times. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Okay, Now the border on you know, offering advice and
there's a gray area between advice and punishing parenting.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, you gotta watch yourself on that one, I guess.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
But you were saying, Andrew wants to do something with yours,
you would love to.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
My husband is singer and does musical theater. He would
love to do a show with our son. I was like,
does he want to?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
I'm not sure?
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Does you somewhat too?
Speaker 6 (12:35):
He's I mean, like singing his stuff, but I don't
know if he's keen on it. Locked up into theater schools.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
And script costumes.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Okay, So get you get your work? Are you working
with your parents.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
And does it work out? Yeah, because there's a lot
of time together, isn't it. If you're doing a day in,
day out. Some people do it successfully.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
We said before, we haven't heard from than sons for
a while, so maybe it didn't. Maybe that didn't work out.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
All the sons are like scream up.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
Your band sons, the hits that John wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:11):

A ready intensity. Right, you just played Carefreida We're by
mistakes is blindly hot.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, that's pretty cool, pretty awesome moments.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Wearing a microphone would be bloody night mare, wouldn't it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah. Yeah, I think they're gonna they've got to be
quite careful to I think, what but there to yourself.
I feel like that someone goes through and goes, oh
this was said before, rather than let's just go life
on the yelling at the reef and stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
So we just will know you're working with your parents,
have you worked with your parents? Been you're doing a podcast?

Just the extra to even that point two, it would
be so nice, it would Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Is there a country you won't return to? You can
call us eight hundred hits full for even any country
you won't return for whatever reason. I don't really mind
what the reason is. I know nothing you've enjoyed all
the countries you visited.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Yeah, I mean it's always I think if you travel
and like enough to travel, there's the moments you might go, Okay,
I wouldn't go beck there, or that was a good thing.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But you know, nothing's ever ruined the whole country for me.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
It's a big claim, isn't it. Yes, Usually it's something
you have done to ruin your reputation in that country. Yeah,
anything that springs to mine.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Well, you know, there's probably a few regrettable things we're
filmed in other countries of the years.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I remember I.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Was, Yeah, France, I wouldn't take you back to Paris.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
I wouldn't be welcome back to Paris.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
We were just eating, like we're going to eat some
you know, some of the food that they have have
some more unusual food for outside of the world. You know,
we didn't even get there. We didn't have stomach. We
started on beef tatar, which is kind of but it
was all done properly. And he just couldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Was have a raw egg on top.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, it wasn't done properly. You pulled it out of
the supermarket freezer fridge and we're like, here, quickie, eat this.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And I was going under the Eiffel Tower and we
got from a French and he.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Was like, yeah, so did you spell under the outer town?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
It's embarrassing, the most romantic place on earth.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
There's probably someone going to proposal up there. And they
looked down at.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
It was beef Tata, which is again.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yess my was someone I know through school. They they
were dating, they said many years ago. They were dating
a lady who was from Fiji, and so he went back.
She's come and eat my family and she lived in
village in fijis absolutely come back. And so what happened,
does he He was invited to a carva session. Yeah, great,
(21:08):
And at some point he can't remember what happened. At
some point of the carvat he remembers up to a
certain point and he can't, for the love of God
remember what took place after that. But he woke up
the next morning lying on the lounge floor of her
grandmother's house and he was just told you never welcome
back here again.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Oh really?
Speaker 2 (21:29):
And he doesn't know what he's done? Does he still know? No,
He's like, I think I might have gone out with
her brothers somewhere. He doesn't know what he's done.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
That sounds like a stitch up from the brothers.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
It does. And she still liked him. She wasn't angry.
She's just like my family. I don't want you and
me to be It was like a real lie, you know.
What was the Shakespeare thing Romeo and Juliet situation. Just
a drunk key he probably, but yeah, so she she
still wanted to be but the family are like, in
no way will you spend the rest of your days?
(22:03):
So they broke up, broke up and and he was
told was no one sad terms never returned to Fiji.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Was he fully closed when he woke up on the
grandma's floor.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
I didn't get intimate details, it was.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, a lot more of that story made. Yeah, we'd
all love to know, but yeah, and he'd love to know.
I do feel like Fiji, you probably he could probably
dip his toes back into the water resort or a pool,
you know, under the Yeah, like, I don't feel like
they've got him on a wanted poster or something. If
it gets it might.
Speaker 7 (22:35):
Be a custom Yeah, hits that johnaan Ben podcast.

at the time.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Heating into Christmas, I know, in a couple of weeks
time you put your Christmas tree up November the first
is your tradition, man.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
Yeah, and that's when we get the note out of
the Christmas tree we wrote for ourselves last year when
we put the Christmas tree down. We write ourselves a
note every year, what's the Well, it's like, what we
achieved this year and our hopes for Like it's.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Like a little time you went around last year, we
talked to me. Yeah, we talked about and write themselves
a little night and yeah of the year, like a
reflection thing. And then they get to read it.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
We'd learned from the year and then our hopes for
the future. And then when we readback, we like to
see what came we.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Achieved, none of this bleak year. I had a tradition.
I would take the kids up the road. There's a
park up the road and there was there's a hill
and I'd call it Oscar and Poppy Hill, and we'd
go sit on top of the hill, okay, and I
was like, you can see the whole world from here.
They were young. Kids are really done when they're young,
and you can tell them anything, and they believe in
(23:43):
the whole world, the whole world, and we're sitting on
and now we go past and I'm like, look there's
Oscar and Poppy Hill and now they're of the age.
We're like, well, no, it's just an oversized mounder dirt.
There's a whole bunch of weeds growing on us. You
lied to us. You see, we could see the whole
world from there. We could see was some guy in
a weird trench coat in the bush. Sweet did you give.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Them like inspirational words while you're up there? You can
see the whole world?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Kids, everything the light touches sim but.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
All of this is yours away.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
From the dark area.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I did say, all of this is yours, and they're like, well, no,
it's actually local ee land. Don't try and build colonial
on it.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Old man, your traditions, your yarly yearly traditions, whatever traditions
you're doing. I just reminded me of friends. Friends of
ours have a tradition where they meet up with other
friends just before at Christmas and they give like a
naughty secret center. So they all get gifts and they
get you know, and it's all kind of like, you know,
slightly embarrassing, but it's all like friends are in the room,
(24:44):
but they didn't realize that one year after someone had
hosted my friend hosted that someone had left one of
the toys shall we say on them put it up
high on the mental piece, And they didn't realize until
like a year later when they came back for the
next year and they were like, oh, you're still you
put it up again? Have you? Just because we're here
and they're like, put up what? They're like, oh, the
(25:04):
toy that we put up on the thing. They're like, oh,
dear god, they had on the bookcase for a a tire.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
How many people including their parents come around and sat
there and just locked up and.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Was like it was a busy bookcase. There's a lot
going on. But at the same time.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
That was definitely notice what It depends on the detail,
because sometimes you can pass them off as a spaceship
or some sort of ornaments. Yeah, but if it's got
you know, you know, it's very intricately detailed, then there's
there's no there's no denying the hits that John and
Ben podcast about your traditions. I spoke you so to
a lovely guy who him and his brother every year
(25:39):
gift each other a Lynx Africa gift pack, so you've
got the shower. Jaell always comes with like a tiny
little miniature towel, a bit bigger than a flannel, bit
smaller than a handtel. I don't know what you use
that toel for, but there are always in those weird packs
and a can of Links Africa as well. Every year
they've done it, and he said with stockpiled toilet baber begs.
You know, yeah, yeah, toilet begs. You've got like twenty
(26:00):
five of the meach.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
You can get through the products, but what do you
do with the beg?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yeah, you're right, but you think you always stick with
the same toilet bag and you run it into the ground.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Don't And if torlet bag is a weird I never
thought it's a weird name until my kids were like,
what is a toilet bag? You're talking about a bag
you're taking me.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
I think it's a bathroom sick.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Yeah, bathroom beam.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Like call it a bathroom beck or something rather than
toilet bag. I was like, I've gone in and I've bought
something out. They're like, well, leave it there.

Just it just keeps us humble and even when we've

can find. So it's just a simple things really nothing,
nothing big, but it just connects us and grounds us

Very grateful that I'm talking to you guys.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
Hits that Jon Wan in.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Podcasts you do me and I wouldn't imagine, but maybe
you do. But from time to time, when I'm in
the bathroom and the shower, like I look over there,
we've got a little like a little shelf flu area
things the shower, or if you open up the little
vanity cupboard and stuff like that, you might see a
product of my wife's and you're like, oh, what's this?
(31:20):
And then you'll give it you'll give it a little,
you know, give it a go, treat yourself fine lines
and wrinkles, but maybe they'll disappear, I don't know, you know,
in one go.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
And then I'll be like, that was nice your lines are,
and then.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I'll forget about it again later, but I'll be doing
it getting into the purple shampoo of my wife's. And
I didn't know about purple shampoo until recently started to
die my here blonde and parently, purple shampoo is the
thing you need to have going orange.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, so you have that nice you want.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
To get rid of the brassy color they break him.
Purple shampoo will get rid of the bra I know
a lot more about this than I ever had before.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Is he's, uh, you're doing his hand dishes with his
pinky painted nails. He's really reaching your here.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Hasn't he? And this is all you the nails I've
got right now. But yeah, so the purple shampoo is
a little bit of a boner contention now because I've
started using the shampoo that wasn't mine, and I keep
using it as well, and my wife will sometimes take
little podles of it around, you know, she goes to
the gym whatever it does as well. So there was
a little pottle of it the shower. Now. A couple
(32:20):
of days ago, I was, oh, you should use this,
you know, it's the thing on the floor. It's like, great,
use purple shampoo. Put it in. I was like, just
didn't smell the purple shampoo. I knew in love. And
then I said to my wife later, I was like, oh,
I thought i'd better cup clean. I was like, the
purple shampoo was that different stuff? What was that? She
was like, oh, the little potle that was actually for
the dog. That was shampoo for the dog. She was
(32:40):
cleaning the dog. Kind of a friend your dog is.
But that wasn't quite the same tinge with the purple
shaphoo as well. So yeah, I was like, oh geez,
kind of didn't sit with me that well.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I've had an urging needs to scratch him and pan
this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
You can do it. You can do that. My coat's
looking great, slipping.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Different that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Jon and Ben podcast had a couple more days until
a long weekend. But we've been playing a music trivia
game this week and not doing a very good job
of it. Producer Grace comes in and plays us just
a split second or two of a song with a
strip back instruments. We add more instruments to it, and
we slowly get to what the song is.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Now this was This is an app you can download
to what's it called?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Thank you bandal for providing us a great idea.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I have no idea for an app this morning. It's
called what is that? And so what you do if
you like, don't know what something is, Like you know
a piece of machinery and you're trying to phone like
a plumber or something, you don't, just put your camera
to it and it tells you what it is.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Yeah, it's also Google Image.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
You have to figure out what the image like, describing
the image, but you just.
Speaker 6 (33:58):
Take a photo of it on Google and it already doesn't.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
What an age we live in.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I was in the shower and I was like, what
is that? I thought, if I took a final medium,
seen that to the plumber, upload that somewhere, I teach
you how to do that dogglinging. There.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Here's the first one. Okay, so it starts with just
the drums. Grace figure out the song just.

along those lines thrown off.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
My mum loved Gloria is to find on the sound machine.

Speaker 7 (37:35):
Have you.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
She has a lot of energy all the time.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah, maybe that's why?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Is it? Is it a case of if you have
that amount of sleep, your body gets used to needing
that amount of sleep. I have the same theory with
lip You know how you put on lip balm. The
more you put on lip balm, the more your lips
crave lip balm.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
I agree with her.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
You try and cold turkey and your lips. How so, Yeah,
we got talking about most amount least amount of sleep
yesterday security guard phone through.
Speaker 8 (38:07):
Guard, so I get home sleep And again, how many
hours a day?
Speaker 6 (38:12):
For hours three three hours?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
You must be volatile? Yeah he uh. And then with
the poor guys trying to string and sentence together, he
couldn't even get a singer give it so tired three
hours a night, it seems that's not enough.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
That's impressive. It's impressive that you can function on that.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
I imagine they would have some long term effect health
effect surely if you're doing that consistently.
Speaker 6 (38:31):
For do you guys not have to do They did
like a sleep course here, Well maybe this was like
a sleep before where they told you how important sleep was,
pything it was through our work. Well that's great, but

Speaker 2 (38:59):
Andrew's phone on eight hundred, the hats were coming off
three hours. How much sleep are you getting?
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Oh?
Speaker 13 (39:03):
May not like that guy, three to I'll be four
to five basically every night.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Yeah that's not enough though, is it not? We say that,
but then a lot of us are guilty of it.
Speaker 10 (39:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (39:13):
Yeah, I prefer sex if I can get it where
that's my sweet spot. I think, Yeah, seven will be sweet,
but for I mean twenty years. For four to five,
he's probably running on caffeine. Mate, Yeah, some type's probably caffeine.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
So John's are like, oh, we can put the straight
into a coffee machine.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
When he donates to the blood servers, they just fill
up their bloody coffee pot.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
So you were here, you can have it. What about it?
If you've got like weekends or days off, do you
sleep a little longer? Then no?
Speaker 13 (39:42):
My body, I'm a trainer, so my body just wants
to get up and I'll go for a run or something.
I've got probably cortusole through the roof. But yeah, and
I've been doing this over twenty years, so the body
is just so conditioned to waking up at a certain time.
If I get a bit early, i'd wake up, like SA,
eight thirty, I'd wake up, not a one. I'm lying awake?
Speaker 2 (40:01):
Yeah are you? Are you a personal trainer?
Speaker 13 (40:04):
Yeah, so, I've been in the industry for over twenty
plus years, so it's just I've been up at four
for as long as I can remember.
Speaker 6 (40:11):
To be honest, do you have the general effect where
you go to a cinema and you can't stay awake?
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yep, no, sorry my wife Jamsy, Yeah, yeah, give me,
give me ten minutes. And also I'll show you a
sleepy middle aged man.
This show on being Podcast. Hey that's us brought to
you by Hello Fresh, the Experts and Tastes that kiwis
love to the podcast on a Thursday morning as we
get towards the end of the week.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Yeah, welcome, lovely to have you here. How's how are
you guys, We've just done a show, and how are
you feeling after the show.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I'm good. We're having my rubarb again.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Loving your rhubarb at the moment.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
But Ben doesn't want rubab being to though.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
That's we went into it. Yeah, well no, I didn't
know produced Grace doesn't who does the podcast intro? Yesterday
after we did it, I thought it was quite fun.
We've gone on, talked about something else. I can't remember
what I think we started. We talked about something else.
She was like a half minutes with the intro. So yes,
keep it, keep it tight. There's not a great stuff.
It's yeah. I feel like we're like it's someone going along.
(00:46):
That's us. An example, I don't they want to see
Travis Scott and we're like we're at the gate and
they just want to get in and they want to
see Trevis Scott. We're like, I get to say, well,
you know, they're like, just want to get fast. Yeah, crowd,
I don't great, but I'm just going to try and
get in and see Travis Scott. You know, that's what we're
doing right now.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
You're saying, we're ready for Trevor Scott.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Now, yeah, we're holding people up from Trevor Scott. That's
what we're doing.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
So we're holding people up for ourselves. They have come here.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It's like another version, Okay, Trevor Scott, the going God's well,
back to the future. Get on. We send like a
future of us back somewhere and we stop us and
we're stopping oursel and we're like, we just want to
get to the Yeah. Anyway, So there's a.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Couple of analogies there.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, you get whatever it knows we need to shut
up and just let get listen to the podcast. All right,
here we go. I think obviously things get close close
now to the American election, and Obama's out campaigning at
the moment, doing his thing to help out, and Eminem
came out.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
What can I do to pull this thing back?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
He brought our eminem it, Yeah, which was pretty cool.
Eminem came out and you know, said some stuff to
the crowd as well. But Obama and his introduction, you know,
have a listen, No, I.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Notice our palms are sweating these week arms a heaven,
my swell running. I'm nervous, but I'm a surface. I'm
a calm and run it. Fordot bombs, but I keep
bumb forget it, dun, dun. I was gonna jump up there.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Charis caught up at the moment though.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
It runs cheering, and they're.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Eating the dogs, they're eating the catch, they're eating the
pets of the people that live there.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Can I say that in all due respect to women?
And I love women. I love women. So that's what's
going on over there in America? What's going on back
over here? Obviously we're heading into a long weekend and
Johno for some reason gets his parking fine scent to work,
its speeding fine spark work.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
What So we talk about it so his wife doesn't know, Well,
she knows me because you told me on the radio
over two we've known this about Have we got set
to hide? Yeah, you're right, we're right.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Talk about it at all. We have no idea. It
mostly gets us in here.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That would eliminate corner of the show's content to let
her get the parking tickets. So got more, got more, even.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Like two days ago he had more, and then he's
got more since then.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I got two speeding finds and you know where I'm
getting them from the same bloody speeding camera.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
They're back.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Makes you an idiot, Yeah, you haven't learned.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
It's it's a head job. It's a head job from
the New Zealand police. They're clawing back. The government's telling them, guys,
you're not meaning budgets. You're gonna have to lay off staff.
They're like, well, what's the elcha, we find people more,
we bring in more revenue. And now of my latest ticket, yeah, okay,
fifty nine kilometers, that's fifty nine kilometers. Now here's my issue.
(03:46):
We all know the unwritten road rule that you've got
ten k's Grace.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well that's what Yeah, that's where you see that the
other day actually to Grace, producer producing Grace and she
was like what she's a twenty three year old driver
and you're like, oh, I was always the thing it was, Yeah,
ten K's.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
What did they tell you when you were getting your license? Recently? Grace,
that's not a thing.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Ok. Great, they've been recently. They often talk about over
summer zero toler tolerance. So if you're going one k
over the speed, you king, but.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
They would allude that there is tolerance. Other times k tolerance.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I think there's like one.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Or two K a pretty k grace.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
When we were doing our license back in the day,
you'd sit in the driving instructor and that'd be like, hey, mate,
you've got on this. You know you going fifty, so
you know when you're out there in the real world
and they gave you a wink. I know it is.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Fifty, but you know we all know that's sex. Yeah,
that's exactly right, and we all knew it was law.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
The police knew it. I think I've even passed police.
They were going fifty and I'm going sixty one and like,
get a guys, they made tin k's grace. We all
know what there is.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
They were going fifty.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
They've got to stick to them, did the police. But
they know the rules. We all know the rules.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Clearly, you don't.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
John's audition for news talks be great speaks.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
He got mad.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
It's the woke brigade coming in here finding me for
going nine k's over the speed limit.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
The thing is is it the same speed camera?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
And that's my other issue. Grace, thank you for informing.
She even got Google strip view out. She's like, here's
the camera. It's a mounted one, isn't it obvious? Yeah, Network, clearly,
I've never seen it. And even though I can, I
also say, why don't we program the speed cameras to go? Oh,
we've already, We've already snapped this poor bugger. Let's not
go two times, let's not even go three times? Three times?
Speaker 7 (05:29):
The hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Another being is they were it out of food stuff
and we're just hosting a little things from them. They're
celebrating Dwali at the moment. Geez, I tell you what
we're talking about. The best cuisine across the board last week,
weren't we? I'd say Indian, I've one of my top three.
That's great, love it beautiful, quite rich though isn't in
the sauces, but boy, it's a banging cuisine. The end
of cuisine was sucking back on some somosas, weren't we,
(05:54):
And there was a Duali performance.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
So it weren't even fundraising somosas. And then we would
get sucked up with that into the school thing. They
love moss for fundraising the kids start school. Mate, I
love tomosas. We've got so many somosas enough freezer.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
They're still sucks on back the other day.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Because there cocks prepared and good to go.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
You didn't have to donate to Cherry to try and.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Get my good daughter's netball team to the Ames Games.
You'll be hocking.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You'll be a professional somosa salesperson.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
When they once they hit, friends of ours were like,
hey can you Yeah, because my daughter, she's two years
older than Andy, she went to Aames games and friends
were like, hey, can you buy some somosas And most
of them are like, we've still got one from two
years ago. The last time you got us got.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Through THESS enough.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
But one of those things I need to get the
out of the freezer and good to go.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
But yes, there's a wonderful Dewali performance. Now my issue
is and it's not just with Dwale music, Indian music,
it's just any music. You know, some brave souls start
to clap along.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Okay, yes to that was me.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah I was clapping along. Now that comes with a
certain level responsibility.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
If you are the.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Initiator of the group clap, you're responsible for carrying on
the clap. But at some point people lose confidence in clapping,
don't they have? This is how it played out yesterday.
Were watching a wonderful Duali performance. That's wonderful, and I
started to clap, but I don't know when to stop. Yeah,
(07:23):
Ben fades out, slows down to just a single clap,
and there's a smattering of clapping in the rest of
the audience. And that's the problem with clapping, too, is
because once you start clapping, you're like, I'm focusing more
on the clapping than the performance of the song. When
you're at a concert.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
And you become very aware of who else is clapping, and.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You lose timing something white guy, I lose sometimes I
missed that one. Everyone else is that on another? Timing.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, it's musical, per appreciati but when someone when everyone
else is clapping, you've got to get up. Okay, Well,
can you still call it the Mexican Wave?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
I think so. Yeah, it's originated I think at the
Mexican Done. The back background originated at a big tournament
I came. Remember it was the Olympics or a football
tourna in Mexico. Nothing from a cultural sense, as far as.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
You know where it started.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It's got the name of a race or a country.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
He's going to do some research. I keep going, this
is all right, this is a right, but it's like,
I don't mean, I'm definitely note not the expert on
what you can to card do, don't we But I
did look into this and I think it's okay, all.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Right, Jose. The Musican wave, you feel you get bullied
into doing your musical wave because if you're the only
one sitting down and everyone else and how.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Many times round? Though, that's my thing as well.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Same as clip.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Three, I'm starting.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
That becomes how many times can you go round three
or four?
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I'm starting to go, I want to watch the cricket here, guys.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Same with clapping, people fade out of it, so don't
start it in the beginning. We'll have a rule, you know,
we've got we'll clap for the first to sort of
sort of chorus verse situation. We'll clap for it. We'll
do a couple of Mexican waves around the stadium, time
on it, and we enjoy what we're here.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
For We'll Got the Hits that johnaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Something that was quite an awesome moment actually, and that
happened in the sports world yesterday, but it's made quite
a lot of attention. Lebron James, one of the greatest
basketball has ever got your hero, Yeah, yeah, I really
love Lebron. Yeah, and he got to play with his son,
Bronnie James got to play and on an NBA game again,
played the first game.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Because he plays for the Lakers now his son, Yeah
doesn't he had.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
You know, they got onto the court together, and it's
pretty historic. I think the first time a father and
son has ever played on the same team in the NBA.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
So history tonight, the first father son due to play
together in an NBA game.
Speaker 8 (09:41):
This is all in the family.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
What a celebration for the James family.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Pretty impressive. Else, Bronnie's the son.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
He's what twenty yeah, I think, yeah, around twenty. Lebron's
turning forty this year, so yeah, and still it's just incredible.
If you've watched the Netflix show, the thing is he
spins and does on the body, and you know.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
There's the rumor that he spends a million dollars a
year on his.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Body talks about that is I don't know where that
people got that from, but he does do a lot.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
I get there.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
His wife talks about it. He's got like this coffin
thing that he sort of puts some She's like cause
of a coff and he goes and zips up. It's
almost like a little tint and it sort of helps them.
It's like a cry o little thing, you know.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
Well, like when I'm forty now, I get out of
bed and I hurt myself. Yeah, well, sometimes you hurt
yourself and you don't even know where it came from.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I've done my neck and I was just pushing on
a swing Tuesday. I don't know what's happening. Actually just
breaking news. We've got the audio of Lebron he was
miked up. Is this moment was happening?
Speaker 9 (10:33):
Yeah, it's an intensity, right, just played carefree though we're
about mistakes. Is bling play hot?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
That's that's pretty cool. See that was a bit that
got me. It was just like you're ready, You're ready,
you know, I just go out there, don't worry about mistakes.
And it was a really lovely moment.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
What a special moment?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Can you do? It is special. It is really it
is her warmly moment in history, but probably will never
be repeated.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Imagically for that to work out, Timeline WHI is this incredible?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah? And the thing is you can't can you work
with your parents, because it's gonna get to the point
they're gonna get deep into the season. You can't tell
me what to do? Dead? You know.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
That's that's sweet at the start, Yeah, but then they're
going to do training together and like.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
What do you call them dead? You call lebron. My
mate's also worried about the changing rooms. It's like, what's
the showering situation? Dead?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
And when you're asking for the ball are you're like Dad?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I mean I you know, I just try and ask
my son to do we end up bickering and we're
firing away and can't tell me what to do exactly.
I mean, you do a podcast with your daughter, How
does that work out?
Speaker 1 (11:39):
I think it works out for the most part pretty well.
Actually have all the things we do together, it's it's
actually really special. It's a really cool thing to do.
To be able to do it out with her. You know,
there's not many things that I know a little bit
a little bit about. So it's quite nice to be
able to you know, I'm not calling myself an expert,
but it's quite nice to be able to do that with.
And there have been some you know, you've all done
broadcasting and radio and stuff, and you so many things
(12:01):
you're like, what is this and what's this? It's nice
to have someone to kind of well, I hope I'm
that person, because you know, I don't know, but does
she is?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
She like, yeah, I get it, dad.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Well sometimes she's like you've explained that three times. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Okay, Now the border on you know, offering advice and
there's a gray area between advice and punishing parenting.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, you gotta watch yourself on that one, I guess.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
But you were saying, Andrew wants to do something with yours,
you would love to.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
My husband is singer and does musical theater. He would
love to do a show with our son. I was like,
does he want to?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
I'm not sure?
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Does you somewhat too?
Speaker 6 (12:35):
He's I mean, like singing his stuff, but I don't
know if he's keen on it. Locked up into theater schools.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
And script costumes.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Okay, So get you get your work? Are you working
with your parents.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
And does it work out? Yeah, because there's a lot
of time together, isn't it. If you're doing a day in,
day out. Some people do it successfully.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
We said before, we haven't heard from than sons for
a while, so maybe it didn't. Maybe that didn't work out.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
All the sons are like scream up.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
Your band sons, the hits that John wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:11):

A ready intensity. Right, you just played Carefreida We're by
mistakes is blindly hot.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, that's pretty cool, pretty awesome moments.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Wearing a microphone would be bloody night mare, wouldn't it.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah. Yeah, I think they're gonna they've got to be
quite careful to I think, what but there to yourself.
I feel like that someone goes through and goes, oh
this was said before, rather than let's just go life
on the yelling at the reef and stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
So we just will know you're working with your parents,
have you worked with your parents? Been you're doing a podcast?

Speaker 3 (19:22):
Just the extra to even that point two, it would
be so nice, it would Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Is there a country you won't return to? You can
call us eight hundred hits full for even any country
you won't return for whatever reason. I don't really mind
what the reason is. I know nothing you've enjoyed all
the countries you visited.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Yeah, I mean it's always I think if you travel
and like enough to travel, there's the moments you might go, Okay,
I wouldn't go beck there, or that was a good thing.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But you know, nothing's ever ruined the whole country for me.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
It's a big claim, isn't it. Yes, Usually it's something
you have done to ruin your reputation in that country. Yeah,
anything that springs to mine.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Well, you know, there's probably a few regrettable things we're
filmed in other countries of the years.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I remember I.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Was, Yeah, France, I wouldn't take you back to Paris.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
I wouldn't be welcome back to Paris.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
We were just eating, like we're going to eat some
you know, some of the food that they have have
some more unusual food for outside of the world. You know,
we didn't even get there. We didn't have stomach. We
started on beef tatar, which is kind of but it
was all done properly. And he just couldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Was have a raw egg on top.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, it wasn't done properly. You pulled it out of
the supermarket freezer fridge and we're like, here, quickie, eat this.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And I was going under the Eiffel Tower and we
got from a French and he.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Was like, yeah, so did you spell under the outer town?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
It's embarrassing, the most romantic place on earth.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
There's probably someone going to proposal up there. And they
looked down at.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
It was beef Tata, which is again.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yess my was someone I know through school. They they
were dating, they said many years ago. They were dating
a lady who was from Fiji, and so he went back.
She's come and eat my family and she lived in
village in fijis absolutely come back. And so what happened,
does he He was invited to a carva session. Yeah, great,
(21:08):
And at some point he can't remember what happened. At
some point of the carvat he remembers up to a
certain point and he can't, for the love of God
remember what took place after that. But he woke up
the next morning lying on the lounge floor of her
grandmother's house and he was just told you never welcome
back here again.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Oh really?
Speaker 2 (21:29):
And he doesn't know what he's done? Does he still know? No,
He's like, I think I might have gone out with
her brothers somewhere. He doesn't know what he's done.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
That sounds like a stitch up from the brothers.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
It does. And she still liked him. She wasn't angry.
She's just like my family. I don't want you and
me to be It was like a real lie, you know.
What was the Shakespeare thing Romeo and Juliet situation. Just
a drunk key he probably, but yeah, so she she
still wanted to be but the family are like, in
no way will you spend the rest of your days?
(22:03):
So they broke up, broke up and and he was
told was no one sad terms never returned to Fiji.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Was he fully closed when he woke up on the
grandma's floor.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
I didn't get intimate details, it was.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, a lot more of that story made. Yeah, we'd
all love to know, but yeah, and he'd love to know.
I do feel like Fiji, you probably he could probably
dip his toes back into the water resort or a pool,
you know, under the Yeah, like, I don't feel like
they've got him on a wanted poster or something. If
it gets it might.
Speaker 7 (22:35):
Be a custom Yeah, hits that johnaan Ben podcast.

Yeah, and we're just desperate. We'll just take a tradition
at the time.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Heating into Christmas, I know, in a couple of weeks
time you put your Christmas tree up November the first
is your tradition, man.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
Yeah, and that's when we get the note out of
the Christmas tree we wrote for ourselves last year when
we put the Christmas tree down. We write ourselves a
note every year, what's the Well, it's like, what we
achieved this year and our hopes for Like it's.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Like a little time you went around last year, we
talked to me. Yeah, we talked about and write themselves
a little night and yeah of the year, like a
reflection thing. And then they get to read it.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
We'd learned from the year and then our hopes for
the future. And then when we readback, we like to
see what came we.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Achieved, none of this bleak year. I had a tradition.
I would take the kids up the road. There's a
park up the road and there was there's a hill
and I'd call it Oscar and Poppy Hill, and we'd
go sit on top of the hill, okay, and I
was like, you can see the whole world from here.
They were young. Kids are really done when they're young,
and you can tell them anything, and they believe in
(23:43):
the whole world, the whole world, and we're sitting on
and now we go past and I'm like, look there's
Oscar and Poppy Hill and now they're of the age.
We're like, well, no, it's just an oversized mounder dirt.
There's a whole bunch of weeds growing on us. You
lied to us. You see, we could see the whole
world from there. We could see was some guy in
a weird trench coat in the bush. Sweet did you give.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Them like inspirational words while you're up there? You can
see the whole world?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Kids, everything the light touches sim but.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
All of this is yours away.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
From the dark area.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I did say, all of this is yours, and they're like, well, no,
it's actually local ee land. Don't try and build colonial
on it.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Old man, your traditions, your yarly yearly traditions, whatever traditions
you're doing. I just reminded me of friends. Friends of
ours have a tradition where they meet up with other
friends just before at Christmas and they give like a
naughty secret center. So they all get gifts and they
get you know, and it's all kind of like, you know,
slightly embarrassing, but it's all like friends are in the room,
(24:44):
but they didn't realize that one year after someone had
hosted my friend hosted that someone had left one of
the toys shall we say on them put it up
high on the mental piece, And they didn't realize until
like a year later when they came back for the
next year and they were like, oh, you're still you
put it up again? Have you? Just because we're here
and they're like, put up what? They're like, oh, the
(25:04):
toy that we put up on the thing. They're like, oh,
dear god, they had on the bookcase for a a tire.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
How many people including their parents come around and sat
there and just locked up and.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Was like it was a busy bookcase. There's a lot
going on. But at the same time.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
That was definitely notice what It depends on the detail,
because sometimes you can pass them off as a spaceship
or some sort of ornaments. Yeah, but if it's got
you know, you know, it's very intricately detailed, then there's
there's no there's no denying the hits that John and
Ben podcast about your traditions. I spoke you so to
a lovely guy who him and his brother every year
(25:39):
gift each other a Lynx Africa gift pack, so you've
got the shower. Jaell always comes with like a tiny
little miniature towel, a bit bigger than a flannel, bit
smaller than a handtel. I don't know what you use
that toel for, but there are always in those weird packs
and a can of Links Africa as well. Every year
they've done it, and he said with stockpiled toilet baber begs.
You know, yeah, yeah, toilet begs. You've got like twenty
(26:00):
five of the meach.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
You can get through the products, but what do you
do with the beg?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yeah, you're right, but you think you always stick with
the same toilet bag and you run it into the ground.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Don't And if torlet bag is a weird I never
thought it's a weird name until my kids were like,
what is a toilet bag? You're talking about a bag
you're taking me.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
I think it's a bathroom sick.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Yeah, bathroom beam.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Like call it a bathroom beck or something rather than
toilet bag. I was like, I've gone in and I've bought
something out. They're like, well, leave it there.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
We should do a competition. Fine, New Zealand's oldest toilet bag.
There'd be some there'd be some better ones out there.

Happiness or satisfied or what's.

Speaker 12 (30:07):
Just it just keeps us humble and even when we've
had a bad day and we can you know, there's
always something that we can be grateful for. That we
can find. So it's just a simple things really nothing,
nothing big, but it just connects us and grounds us
before we eat.

Speaker 12 (30:55):
Very grateful that I'm talking to you guys.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
Hits that Jon Wan in.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Podcasts you do me and I wouldn't imagine, but maybe
you do. But from time to time, when I'm in
the bathroom and the shower, like I look over there,
we've got a little like a little shelf flu area
things the shower, or if you open up the little
vanity cupboard and stuff like that, you might see a
product of my wife's and you're like, oh, what's this?
(31:20):
And then you'll give it you'll give it a little,
you know, give it a go, treat yourself fine lines
and wrinkles, but maybe they'll disappear, I don't know, you know,
in one go.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
And then I'll be like, that was nice your lines are,
and then.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I'll forget about it again later, but I'll be doing
it getting into the purple shampoo of my wife's. And
I didn't know about purple shampoo until recently started to
die my here blonde and parently, purple shampoo is the
thing you need to have going orange.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, so you have that nice you want.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
To get rid of the brassy color they break him.
Purple shampoo will get rid of the bra I know
a lot more about this than I ever had before.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Is he's, uh, you're doing his hand dishes with his
pinky painted nails. He's really reaching your here.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Hasn't he? And this is all you the nails I've
got right now. But yeah, so the purple shampoo is
a little bit of a boner contention now because I've
started using the shampoo that wasn't mine, and I keep
using it as well, and my wife will sometimes take
little podles of it around, you know, she goes to
the gym whatever it does as well. So there was
a little pottle of it the shower. Now. A couple
(32:20):
of days ago, I was, oh, you should use this,
you know, it's the thing on the floor. It's like, great,
use purple shampoo. Put it in. I was like, just
didn't smell the purple shampoo. I knew in love. And
then I said to my wife later, I was like, oh,
I thought i'd better cup clean. I was like, the
purple shampoo was that different stuff? What was that? She
was like, oh, the little potle that was actually for
the dog. That was shampoo for the dog. She was
(32:40):
cleaning the dog. Kind of a friend your dog is.
But that wasn't quite the same tinge with the purple
shaphoo as well. So yeah, I was like, oh geez,
kind of didn't sit with me that well.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I've had an urging needs to scratch him and pan
this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
You can do it. You can do that. My coat's
looking great, slipping.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Different that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Jon and Ben podcast had a couple more days until
a long weekend. But we've been playing a music trivia
game this week and not doing a very good job
of it. Producer Grace comes in and plays us just
a split second or two of a song with a
strip back instruments. We add more instruments to it, and
we slowly get to what the song is.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Now this was This is an app you can download
to what's it called?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Thank you bandal for providing us a great idea.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I have no idea for an app this morning. It's
called what is that? And so what you do if
you like, don't know what something is, Like you know
a piece of machinery and you're trying to phone like
a plumber or something, you don't, just put your camera
to it and it tells you what it is.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Yeah, it's also Google Image.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
You have to figure out what the image like, describing
the image, but you just.
Speaker 6 (33:58):
Take a photo of it on Google and it already doesn't.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
What an age we live in.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I was in the shower and I was like, what
is that? I thought, if I took a final medium,
seen that to the plumber, upload that somewhere, I teach
you how to do that dogglinging. There.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Here's the first one. Okay, so it starts with just
the drums. Grace figure out the song just.
Speaker 3 (34:25):

cooler adult. Oh glory, it's the fat, that's what. Something
along those lines thrown off.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
My mum loved Gloria is to find on the sound machine.

of one song.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
Nineteen ninety four. Oh, I was an oldie.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
You say that it feels like a young ee to us,
but it definitely is an old ninety ninety four. It
sounds really dated.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
It's thirty years ago, right.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Study in ninety ninety four.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
My husband was born in ninety four.

Johonaan Ben podcast talking yesterday about the least amount and
the most amount of sleep have produced a grace A
wowed us with a four hour nap that she had
on Monday and yesterday Mississippi before our nafore our nap yesterday,
which we're like.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Did you do it? Did?
Speaker 1 (37:25):
She back it up on the message message through?
Speaker 2 (37:29):
Yeah, you must feel like a million bucks Grace. She doesn't.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
I feel like you're seeing me too much in that situation.
Speaker 7 (37:35):
Have you.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
She has a lot of energy all the time.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Yeah, maybe that's why?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Is it? Is it a case of if you have
