Buck to the podcast. On a Friday where Megan's away
she had an operation. We've got some audio very shortly
after her operation. I asked for some audio and she
delivered and it's great. It is great.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yeah, it's a really vulnerable moment. Now we want to
put the video on social media.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I think she said it's okay, it's fine. We asked
her and I was like, oh, maybe Meghan, you know,
brand for Megan, she's the fashionista. But I think he
replied to Allie, was I have a husband. I'm all good.
So she snapped one up and she's like, I'm not
on the market looking So I think things in with
the relationship. Maybe we have to pull the video down.
But it's very funny, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Isn't it great when you find someone that you spend
so much time with that you know everything, All wolves
come down, The standards drop, my standards of drip.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
At the stage, You're like, well, is anyone still liking
each other? Anymore.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Yeah, it's like if I ever and God forbid, if
it ever happens, had to get back out on the
market or that would not be pretty.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Now, Meghan, she's away today and I had an operation.
You say, carpal tunnel. She's getting that sorted out, so
a bit of a wrist operation and being made wild
demands he wanted, he demanded, he wanted a groggy Megan
Peppers on the show. That's funny when people do come
off you know, painkillers. And so she went on under
a general analytics, so she was out cold.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
She had the option right of just getting a sort
of local just yes, numbing the arm, but she was like, no.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Hot to sleep. Yeah, if you're probably probably just take
the local.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
She wanted a full slave.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
She went zero to one hundred. Yeah, we've knock me out.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
She's about five years of sleep after having her kids,
I guess, So, yeah, she really took that chance.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So did she did? She fulfilled Bean's requests, so you
stiff to know.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
And I got a lovely video from Megan sent to
my phone, and I've cut it down a little bit.
I've just basically removed a lot of the gaps because
it was essentially her talking. But it was just like
gaps with like three seconds wh gap. So I'm cut
out of the gaps out so it just SU's a
bit faster. But yeah, very very funny stuff. And yeah,
(02:36):
just I guess have a listen.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Okay, here we go.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Hits The jonaan Ben Podcast is.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
A brand new series of Moving Houses on on TV
and Z starting this weekend, with a brand new host
as well, taking over from Clark Gave for his former
All Black Andy Allie and he joins us right now.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Andy Ellis says, we live and breathe.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
All right, how are you doing? Very exciting the new
host of Moving Houses. It's an impressive show to watch,
like some of the places that they go with these
massive trucks and then putting these huge houses on the back.
I mean you get to ride shotgun for a lot
of it.
Speaker 7 (04:03):
What was it like very very long where we often
leave and travel at night, so and the moves could
be ten or twelve hours. And the thing is mate,
like these truck drivers, they're amazing at what they do.
They're really clever and nothing's never a problem. They can
get these houses into just any spaces. And the chet
quality as well.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
It's gonna be there's a lot of chat. I mean, John,
it's pretty good. You're good on flights, ain't it, John?
Like chatting just chating, But I mean.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Ten hours and a care for the truck driver. That's
that's a long haul for you.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
And did you get to the horn or anything? Like
that while you're in the trucks.
Speaker 7 (04:36):
Actually what they did, one bloke did and I probably
shouldn't say this because you know, we're not allowed to
show this on TV. But he actually let me drive,
like it's too thirdy in the morning, make you can drive.
It was pretty cool, But again I probably shouldn't be
telling me it.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
He just wanted to know if you were allowed to
hold a horn.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
You know, no, no, I go one bit of mate.
Is that kind of cool because you get to not
I need to move the houses there, but you sort
of check back in when they're up and sort of going,
And that must be kind of cool to go back
and see it all sort of starting to take shape.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Probably my favorite thing I reckon as meeting the couples
or the families first of all that are brave enough
to do this right. It's pretty cool because it's an
affordable way to get into the housing market, and you
sort of create this really cool relationship with them. You know,
you're part of their journey when they move the house,
and what happens is sort of we put it on
site and then I get to come back five months
later and see the beautiful job that they've done. On it,
(05:28):
but then get to catch up again with the families
or the couples that have actually done it and hear
about all the hard work they've put in and see
how proud they are of the end result. And I
think I'll keep in touch with them actually for people,
just because it's a really cool journey that they let
us all come on. It's pretty unique and pretty special.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Absolutely. Now, is it cheaper like if you were to
build a house or move a house? Oh?
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I meant a lot of these
people are getting them landed on a site somewhere for
one hundred and fifty one hundred and eighty grand, maybe
two hundred grand. You wrap around that sort of number
that's consented on its pile kind of ready to go.
I think the one thing that a lot of these
the people that move the houses don't fully understand is
how much work then goes on.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Yeah, that's where the cost comes in.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
Yeah, but if you're prepared to roll your sleeves up
and work bloody hard, and you know, because you're standing
back and painting things and you know, digging holes for
putting want to put a deck on, or standing back
beautiful old wooden floorboards. There's a lot of work and
all that, but and end up with a really beautiful,
affordable kind of family home.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I got and Andy ellis with us form Rugby Player
now the host of Moving Houses. It's on Sunday on
TV and Z one and TV and Z Plus. You've
moved houses yourself, not literally moved houses, but you've been
you've lived played your own christ Church. You've gone to Japan,
you've gone to New York. What was the coolest place
that you've lived?
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Oh, it's hard, it's Japan and New York were incredible.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, shouldn't really, shouldn't have put Christ cetemporary would be like,
what you didn't choose Christ? What do you mean you
chose New York over Christ? Outside of outside of Christ?
The question?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
It's great again, that's say between New York and Japan.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Yeah, I mean like New York. You know. The kids
were a good age too, they were kind of eight
and thirteen. So we literally landed in New York. We're
there for two years. I played a couple of seasons there,
the kids went to school and Manhattan. I don't know,
there's just so much energy in that place. The people
were great, you know, They really made us feel welcome.
We got invited to Thanksgiving dinners and celebrated Fourth of
julys and all this kind of real American culture stuff.
(07:26):
We kind of just got immersed in and just had
amazing memories and the biddy is and we've got lifelong
friends then now too. So we'll be back there. And
for sure, because you.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Were playing over there, right, you're playing in New York.
Speaker 7 (07:38):
Yep, yeah, I was playing in New York. So there's
there's been a rugby competition, the mL it's called in America,
and it's great, the twelve teams. So we'd fly to
New Orleans for a game and then the next week
we'd be in Seattle, then we'd be in Toronto. It
was well, it was such a cool competition to play in.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
And it's a very cool, very cool experience you've had,
But nothing compares to Christchurch. That's right, let's bring it.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Back today exactly, Anyhols, we look forward to moving houses
on this weekend. Also on this weekend the All Black,
so just quickly playing Ireland obviously watched last week's game
as well.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Do you still tune in every game?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Oh? Yeah, I love it, mate, I'm I'm a personate
all black fan there, so like bringing on this is
going to be a beauty in Dublin.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
I imagine there'll be times of us it is a
former all black times of frustration having to watch it
would be like us been we retire and then we
have to listen to another radio show.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I'll probably go down. They're a lot better than us.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
That's not where we say thank you, thank you so
much for your time, lovely to catch up mate and
moving houses is back and appreciate your.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
Time always, Lovely Jenning.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
You boys enjoy the hits that Jona wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
We'll still talking about the big win for Donald Trump.
He is again well by the numbers, big time. Get
into the numbers like I'm sort of petty Gower on
some sort of you're.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Invested in the post numbers, the stats. You're like aiming
for a job on CNN or something. You know, those
people who touched the screens, those things looking good. In Florida,
although there's this unique suburb which was Democrat now as Republican.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
There was verity Fear yesterday put out a little little
thing by the numbers, Trump returns to power and they
had a picture of him, and I thought it was
interesting that were like thirty four fallon accounts, one conviction,
two cases pending to impeachment, two impeachment, six bankruptcies, four
more years was the thing, the forty seventh president of America.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
But it really does some of America just those stats
right there, when when you have a little look at
who voted, and a lot more females voted for Trump
than I would have thought.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I mean really obviously that he had to because he
won by a bit, they had to be the case.
But Trump got fifty four percent of the males voting
for him, and so it still means that was forty
four percent of females voted for voted for Trump.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
That is, that is a lot more than I would
have imagined. What was the little gap in between there once?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Now I guess it's people who don't identify as I'm
guessing har He's got fifty four percent of the females
a female, but it's just she's got more females and males.
But yes, say, still a lot more females voted for
Trump than maybe I would have thought. Trump got fifty
five percent of white people voting for him, whereas eighty
six percent of black people voted for Harris, so a
lot a lot of white men voted for Trump and
(10:16):
a lot of white women as well, So that's I
guess where he won.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Those are the stats.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Broken just said that off as a new self sort
of thing. It's nut.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
It's not really much of a thing. Someone said that
to someone, But you're just reading out other people's stairs.
You've got to come to the owner stats. But I
commented and posted those stats, Carmela. She did do a
concession speech around about ten am our time yesterday, and
you know, as we expected, very gracious and defeat and
(10:45):
very presidential in her speech.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
So let me say my heart is full today, full
of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me,
full of love for our country, and full of results.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
We have been intentional about building community and building coalitions,
bringing people together from every walk of life and background,
united by love of country, with enthusiasm and joy in
our fight for America's future.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You go very very presidential, But unfortunately that's the one
thing that she's not gonna be. Yeah, whereas you compare
that to Trump, who just feels like he just gets up,
and maybe that's what resonates with people. Something that's he
goes off scraps and gets into some weird places. Appreciation
for Susie and the job you did.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Susie. Come, Susie, Come.
Speaker 9 (11:42):
Here, Susane.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Susie likes to stay sort.
Speaker 10 (11:44):
Of in the back.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Let me tell you, Susie likes to stay in the background.
She's not in the back.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I've never seen to be shocked before, Suzusie.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah, so maybe that's what reason that maybe people don't
want the prepropeed speeches. I had another radio station saying
yesterday that for some reason, a billionaire seems to relate
better to Middle America than the other candidate.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Do you know this crazy thing? I was sawn to
Brent Radkin, who reads the news and does the night
show here on the Hits. He's one of those people
that you bump into and he's always got a new
interesting story to tell you. Don't you find that about
Brin And he was saying in the eighteen hundred, so
eighteen eighty nine, there was some books, kids books written
called the Baron Trump Novels. He's got a son called
Baron Trump, Amen Trump, Amen, Benjamin. And the book's basically
(12:30):
the main protagonist in the books very similar to Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
This is written in the eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
In the eighteen hundreds, so basically, Baron Trump would go
around offending people. He was precarious, relentless, and prone to
get in trouble. He often mentions his massive brain. He
has a personalized insult for most people he meets. Also,
Baron Trump and these books lives in a building called
Castle Trump, where Donald Trump obviously lived in Trump Town.
(13:00):
I was for decades. Obviously Donald Trump's sons name's Bart
names Baron, as you just mentioned, and there was a
vision of the book called The Last President. Okay, Now,
this book and The Last President from the eighteen hundreds
is from the eighteen ninety six presidential election. That's where
a scent, That's where a scent, And it follows a
shocking victory of a populous candidate in the eighteen nineteen
(13:21):
six presidential election who brings the downfall of the American Republic.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Well, there we go. It's Simpsons, they say predicted the future.
But this book from the eighteen hundreds might have done
just that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Well. The fascinating the Heads that Jonavan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And the bath Matts situation that people aren't. I've found
over the years, bath Matt is something that people can
get wound up in your house.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
I feel like you're very irresponsible in your approach to
the bar, and maybe I am like, I get that.
I'll take that on the chance.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So I used to flat with someone, you know the person,
and he used to get really wound up. And because
when I'm done with the shower, I'm out, I am that.
I'm not lingering around, I'm not drying myself. I am
moving on with my day. I like to keep moving.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Do you know what someone's actually texting wind of those
texts and it was this morning at six o'clock and
it was about your love of getting stuff done and
moving forward, constantly moving forward. They said, why does Ben
always have to be doing things? It makes me feel
lazy and he's always talking about it on the radius.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Sorry, I got that.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Why don't you always have so much emman to do?
It makes me feel very lazy when I haven't done something.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Apology, So it's not my intention. I'm just like talking
about stuff with me.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
He's a moving forward.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
So shower's done, I'm out, I'm on my way, I'm
getting dry, I'm standing what I thought. The bath mat
was used for getting dried on, and.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
You dry, you pull the towel and you dry yourself
in the shower. Why wouldn't you dry yourself in the
wettest environment then hop out with your dry body, thus
not saturating the bath mat.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I used to wind up because I would be first
up up and adam moving forward and the flat though
used to live in many years ago, and it would
wind up out my flat at the time, who you know,
John O, And I would always hear bead like yeah
out and a comical sitcom yeah where he would get
out of the shower and discover that the bath mat
was still but yeah, but too soggy.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And so then would you also just leave the mat
on the ground, you don't hang it up?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well yeah, well this is the other thing. This is
the thing that winds up my wife. Now I will
hang it up, but very really, when I know I'm
up first, I'm like, well, just leave it for her,
and then she can do it because it's other. But
she doesn't like that. She thinks it's me not hanging
Later she's like, I'm like, well, yeah, but you're going
to have a shower. I've left it there for you.
You're just gonna have to grab it off that you know,
(15:35):
the rack and put it down on.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
The floor, but saving her valuable sick sickens every day,
sickened up boy.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, So this has become a new bone of contention
about the bath mat at home between my wife and I.
She's like, oh, one time, I'd like you to pick
up the bath mat, and I'm probably moving forward my day.
I'm not looking back at the bath mat. I'm just
moving forward afternoon. So I've now decided to not use
the bath mat or tilt, and then I'm not getting
in trouble for not no soggy bath mate and not
(16:06):
getting in trouble for not putting it away. But the downside,
as the floor can very slippery.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
It feels like you remember those commercials, those PSA commercials
and people hopping out the bay over and yeah, paralyzed
or something.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yes, that was like no bath matte, there we go.
That was that was that'll.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Teach it as you as you're drinking, moving forward movement.
Speaker 11 (16:28):
Maybe I shouldn't do that. Actually I don't recommend that.
I do feel sorry for the bath met though. It's
like like the Carpet's poor cousin, who's like, what do
you do? I spend all day saturated sitting on these tops.
Sometimes people take the kid to put me back and
dry me off. Othertimes I just sit here and rot away.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Ye're true, you put it on a shelf. You put it,
then we just stand on it again, don't we.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Carp It's like, oh, outre dry people walking all over me.
Things are great even now, and then I get spilled on.
But even were Apart from there.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
The heads that John and Ben podcast game that we.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Have started to play leading up to Christmas, and you
can play along as well. You can start right from now.
You just got to avoid hearing Mariah Carey's All I
Want for Christmas. It's the most iconic Christmas song. We
thought we'd see how long it would take us to
try not to hear that song.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
And it's this moment I would usually, given the rules
and regulations of commercial radio, I'd be playing the hook
of that so you can't know.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Otherwise we would be out of the game. Soon as
you hear it, you are out, and you need to
text us four four eight seven, And as soon as
we're all out, we'll start playing the song.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
It's a great song, don't get us wrong.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
We just thought it's the most iconic, the hardest one
to avoid this time of year.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Mediampg in the afternoons, they're playing along with us two.
Once all five of us are out of the game,
we're going to we're gonna officially start playing it on
the station. But a lot of people playing along as well,
listening so many texts and calls going oh I'm out.
TikTok got me out. I went into a shop yesterday,
and so we thought we'd would ramp things up after
the program yesterday, and we put some locations, some volatile,
(17:54):
high risk locations into a hat and we each had
to pull one out. Meghan ended up getting the Eye
Heart Radio Christmas station.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Yea, she had to listen to five minutes of the
Christmas station. You had to go in the mall, the
Westfield mall for five minutes where the Christmas decorations are up.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
And I had to scroll through TikTok just keep throwing
just in five minutes, which has been the one that
has caught most people out.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It was quite nerve wracking. So here we are spending
five minutes doing those various things trying to avoid listening
to Mariah Carey.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
I don't know how I'm going to avoid the classic
that is Riah Carey.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
We're starting with Tata slow, sullid Night. Okay, culture shocks.
I had is American living in New Zealand. Can I
watch it?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I gotta keep styling, gotta keep strilling.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
The decos are out, the music at the moment, not
feeling overly Christmas Eve.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It's not Mariah.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
This is so scary because you just don't know what's next.
That's that sounds like no scrubs from TLC.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
That's all right, we're in the club. We all fam
when I did, we did?
Speaker 2 (18:59):
We did.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I'm trying to get out. I've got footy seconds left
and I think the song's about to finish.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
We've done it. We've done it five minutes. No, Mariah,
carry all I want for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
We made it out safely prior over an hour, so
we're still all still in the game. But we'd love
to know right now. Tell you what you feel like?
An absolute? What don't you wander around them all filming
yourself talking to yourself?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Let's go absolute? What's it a blog? Is he doing that?
No one's gonna watch.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
So, oh that's sad. That's just what has come to. Yeah,
four eight seven, are you still in the game or
maybe you're out.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
We'd love to hear from you this morning.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
The hits that JOHNA and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
All right.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Mariah Carey also done some great stuff. She wrote a
song in fifteen minutes, All I Want for Christmas, written
in fifteen minutes, which astounds me.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Incredible, right, and think about it from now, okay, and
then at by eight o'clock she would have written the.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Song, and a song that's garnered her over sixty million
dollars in the royalties over the years. Every year a
million bucks she pulls in from All I Want for
Chris Crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
So it's and it's an iconic bang. And as we
keep saying, we love it, but we're trying to avoid
it because it's the most iconic Christmas song. We see
how long we can avoid hearing it in our lives.
You can play along as well for four eight seven
and let us know when you're out of the game,
and when we're all out of the game our show
and the Drive Show, then we'll start playing the song.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Something that happened with my daughter Poppy just just last night. Okay,
she and she ticks. Just as I was doing that
things that I know what you're about to talk about,
she said, I did. I did very well. So that's
your stance. It starts you have a slightly different, slightly
different take on it, and you can you can decide.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Now has probably rattled your story is the fact that
she's listening to it. There's raddles. You're probably like, well,
you know yesterday you're like, yeah, yeah, I heard, I
heard you wreck out of the story off. Yeah, I
will see you.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I won't filter.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
I won't filter.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
I'll tell you my account and maybe we can get
her on Poppy. You can call the phones.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeah, you want to call it something if you want,
we could play it later. That's fine now.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
So I was picking it up from dance and she
hopped in the car. She declared, I will be guiding
us home. Okay, you will listen to only my instructions
to get home, and and I was like, okay, this
is a fun thing and interesting, just sort of experiment
for me to go. I wonder, what you know a
twelve year old gauge is of getting from point A
to point B. So how far would you have to go?
(23:46):
Like if you can''s probably say seven or eight case. Okay,
bit of a drive, but you know, we do it weekly,
we do it regularly. And I was out of curiosity.
I was like, this is fun. Okay, let's I was
gonna It was like it was kind of like if
you like Google Maps, but you dislike getting to your
destination the quickest way possible, then may I suggest listening
(24:06):
to your kids good directions. But every street she tored me,
she turned me down. I was like, in my head,
I was like, this is the wrong way, right, this
is we are going the wrong way. I'm doing this
myself on a month. This is a fun exercise to
do with the kid. And she would go, keep going,
keep going, and then she'd go left. She'd go, no, no,
keep going, keep going, and then you go left here
(24:27):
with confidence sometimes and I'd follow it, and it dawned
on me pretty quickly. She had no idea where she was.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So how long has the trip generally meant to take?
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Jeez, I'd say ten to fifteen okay.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
And how long roughly would this added a little bit
more extra time?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, Like it got to a point where I'm like,
we are probably twelve minutes over now arrive at her destination,
and it was a one and done scenario. Probably won't
be doing it again. We were pretty much two or
three suburbs over from where we needed to be.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Do you have to help to get back in or not?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
At one point she was like left here and I
turned right and she's like, you're ignoring my structure.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I was like, yeah, because because yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
The way to go. But we got there in the end.
But you know, she she did pretty well. I'd say
it would have taken her an hour and a half
to get home, but she would have. She definitely would
have got her. So we'll poppy again. If you're listening, Darling,
Yeah you can. You can say your side of the story. Yeah,
that's your side of the story that count might have
been you know a bit of radio drama.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Yeah, well you can. Yeah, you can feel free to
correspond your side of the story as well, the hits.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
That johnaan Ben podcasts.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Yeah, can we get producer Ellien here too, actually, because
we're talking about this after the show used today. Now,
it's not a complaint to deal with the actual vehicle,
just more of the people that commute with you, that
that drive with you.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Okay, so that's what the sort of complaints that you
want that complaints about the other passengers.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Yeah, you know, things like that. That's right now, Ellie.
You you played lovely partner see him?
Speaker 4 (25:57):
Yes, yes, lovely, lovely man, lovely man.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
We're never about to rinse people out. Were always likely
lovely just because we're there here at later and they're like, yes,
talking about you.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Like but I said, I said lovely, lovely, exact.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Carel everything you just said, there's no dispute.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Is a lovely man.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Lovely man, however, really irks me when he's my passenger. Now,
I'll provace it by saying, when he was a bit younger,
he did have a bit of a car crash, so
he's a little bit he's got a little bit of
pet stand so I have patience for him.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
However, it sounds like you don't do much.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Yeah, sometimes it's really annoying because we'll be approaching an
off ramp and it's like two k's away and I'm like, yeah, easy,
I'm in the right hand lane, you're right, two k's
to go across. Yeah, and he's already going are you
gonna you're gonna move late? What are you gonna move lights?
And I'm like, yeah, I've got I've got it. And
then by the time I.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Do it, he's just like, oh, that was too late.
It was too late. No, it was too late. He's
an organized driver before with him.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Look, I've had a couple of dicey. Yeah, I did
miss one, and there was a couple it was so like,
you know, it was right about it.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Again, you don't have a great trick. Recorded some blemishes,
okay a little bit.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
And then also they'll be like a car coming up behind,
or I'll but be going a little bit like following
a little bit too closely, and he's like, but then
it gives me a fright and then I'm a more
dangerous driver.
Speaker 11 (27:22):
So annoying.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
You don't want the person you like they're in a
seance or something like that.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
But lovely God, lovely guy, lovely guy, that guy.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Lovely guy. The compliments sand was just complete. So what
is the complain that you want to make about? Maybe
your partner who's lovely partner. Lovely partner loves lovely people.
You travel within the car, But what complaints would you
like to make? Maybe you're the passenger, maybe you're the driver.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
We'll take all I'll share one that gim she is
about me, and I can see why it would irritate you.
You got something about me too, driving a lovely guy,
but lots of lots about the.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Talking about your car complaints. It complains about people that
you drive with regularly eight hundred the hits four four
eight seven is the text machine. My wife Jen, she
really really irritates her when I because I refuse to
use Google Maps driving around the city of Like I've
been in the city for nearly forty years. I know
every nook and cranny of the space, everybody's secret little
(28:25):
back alleyway, even little shortcut you name it. That irritates
you when I take shortcuts, doesn't it?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You go through like fruit World stores and also.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Drive through a wash World, petel station, through a kindergarten,
you know, just to shave off valuable seconds if you
drive time. So I don't use Google Maps. And google
Maps is great technology, isn't. It really gets you from
point A to pointd B as quickly as possible, and
I'll be late. Sometimes she's like, did you use Google Maps?
Speaker 6 (28:52):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
I went off my gut instinct, gut interstinct. And the
other thing too, that winds we have to about Google
Maps is I always feel press that I put on
myself to beat the arrival time.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Really sometimes like a challenge that they sit. Yeah, my wife,
she will I'll go off and say, because I love
Google Maps, I'll be like, can you put that in?
And she'll like yep, and then she'll turn it off
and halfway through the troups just like go yep, got that,
And I'm like, just keep it on, keep it on.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Today, like it'll.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Follow the things. She's like, no, I've got it. I've
just seen it now and I've got it. But I'm like,
but I have to now correspond through her. I'm like,
just leave google Maps tell us where we need to go.
It knows where to go. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
So are you quite an interactive passage?
Speaker 1 (29:33):
I like to know. I like to keep looking at
Google Maps. Yeah, yeah, see the updates, but she'll just
turn it off again and then I have to sometimes
go back into it.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I'm like, just keep it on, keep it on, Lucy,
you're on. How are you this morning?
Speaker 10 (29:48):
Oh morning, guys, I'm good things. How are you?
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Yeah? Good, It's lovely to have you on, Lucy. Car complaints,
who's it about?
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yes, my husband, I'm admittedly a passenger prince who's most
of the time, but he recently told me that he
feels like he's in a prolonged car crash when I'm driving.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Oh, like, what, so something's going to happen at some stage?
Speaker 7 (30:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (30:09):
I think maybe I'm two porters that he feels tense
the entire ride.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
He is he holding onto things? Is he?
Speaker 7 (30:16):
Yes?
Speaker 10 (30:16):
I feel like he looks tense, like I've never crashed.
I have never crashed before. But I don't know why
he's got this feeling.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
A lot of it people, I think, are those who
probably like to be in control of the surroundings. So
if you're a passenger, you're vulnerable, you're not in charge.
My dad was like, there he'd be when ever might
drive my dear because it's a very radic driver on
the roads. As many tickets would testify. My dad will
push an imaginary brake with his fire and.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
We're going to check you out of the Jay to New
York to hopefully go see Teddy Swims, Katy Perry and
Moore at the jingle Ball.
Speaker 10 (30:50):
Hey, amazing, Thanks for the luck.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Have a great week in Lucy. Appreciate that we're going
to go to care Keeley, how are you hi?
Speaker 10 (30:58):
I'm good. How are you?
Speaker 3 (30:58):
We're doing really well? Keey watched your car complaint this morning.
Speaker 12 (31:02):
Well, my partner constantly, every time I drive, will hold
the holy crap handle, which is the handle above your hair.
I could not stand it, and sometimes.
Speaker 14 (31:16):
Even followed with a WinCE like that, you know, and
it's like, can you not. I'm perfectly fine bick the holy.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Because we already think about what is it really for.
It's just when you're like, geez, I'm really freaking out.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
When you're driving with Keeley exactly. Oh that is great.
And so how does he drive though?
Speaker 12 (31:38):
Well, yeah, he thinks he's a perfect driver, but I
don't hold the holy crap handle even when I should.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Yeah, all right, it's good. I love the holy crap.
It's really making a statement, is we're going to put
you in the drawer as well.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Good luck. You could be going to New York this afternoon.
Make sure you listen to men in PJ.
Speaker 12 (31:57):
God, my goodness, thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
All right, you'll need your holy crap handles over there
on that traffic. Good on, you appreciate it. Someone's texting
as well, my partner. Wherever we are in a car
park of any kind, there's a park. There was a park,
there was a there, there's a park. There's that park.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
That's a place for bickering, tell you what.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
And for some reason, when there's more car parks available,
that opens up the bickering. So I got that one.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
There was one the hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
I like to catch up with this person every week.
We stumbled across Danniella. She works for the Quest Hotel
on Titango, where I was trying to track down a
missing sock that I had, and she's great, she's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
This is wonderful. Bonjoorno, Daniella.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Here we go. That was actually just reading Italian news
actually today, well some not not news. I wasn't looking
for Italian news, but the Fontana de Trevy, the Treviy
found on the famous one.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
Where you got engaged.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
I got engaged. They've actually drained. They're doing some renovations
on it. Rained it at the moment, and there's like
almost like a little peddling pool they put in front
so people can get a photo with water there and
throw your coins in, But the actual pool was under
maintenance at the moment. I don't know if you know
about that.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
No, sorry, I'm across Italian news.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'm across. It's come across my news desk.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
But they take all the coins out.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Apparently they make it and make it over a million,
a million and a half dollars they give to charity
by people throwing coins annual mountain, yeah, every year a million. Yeah,
they give it all the charity. But over a million
and a half yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Well, and those are very honest, trustworthy Italians. They don't
even dip their little Italian fingers in there and steal
the coins. I always wondered, like if I was just
to just place a fountain in the middle of the city,
how much I would garner, how much revenue would Garnica.
You know, you just you check a couple of coins
and need to get the ball rolling, and just it's
like busking put some things in there, and you're like,
(33:52):
people just want to throw coins in.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
But there's lots of fountains around that people don't throw
money into.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, what you need to do is you just need
to get starting half a dozen coins to get that
thing anyway.
Speaker 8 (34:03):
Sorry, okay, carry.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
On now, daniel Awdia have been playing a bit of

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Over that mis mixed five or something.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
It's a fun, fun showing today, really fun podcast for you.
And we'll start with Megan's wonderful message.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Now, Meghan, she's away today and I had an operation.
You say, carpal tunnel. She's getting that sorted out, so
a bit of a wrist operation and being made wild
demands he wanted, he demanded, he wanted a groggy Megan
Peppers on the show. That's funny when people do come
off you know, painkillers. And so she went on under
a general analytics, so she was out cold.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
She had the option right of just getting a sort
of local just yes, numbing the arm, but she was like, no.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Hot to sleep. Yeah, if you're probably probably just take
the local.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
She wanted a full slave.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
She went zero to one hundred. Yeah, we've knock me out.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
She's about five years of sleep after having her kids,
I guess, So, yeah, she really took that chance.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So did she did? She fulfilled Bean's requests, so you
stiff to know.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
And I got a lovely video from Megan sent to
my phone, and I've cut it down a little bit.
I've just basically removed a lot of the gaps because
it was essentially her talking. But it was just like
gaps with like three seconds wh gap. So I'm cut
out of the gaps out so it just SU's a
bit faster. But yeah, very very funny stuff. And yeah,
(02:36):
just I guess have a listen.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Okay, here we go.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
Hell, it's such a be sleep. You guys would be
so heavy to me. I just had egg samage and
got a pink hand. It's never been cut you guys

Speaker 6 (02:59):

A pinky all right, she sounds like one of the
cardasses at the beginning.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Hi, Hello, I love her laughing at her own pink.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
So very slow reaction to it.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
That's funny, that's really good.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
Then we go.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I demanded that audio and I'm very pleased with Yeah,

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Hits The jonaan Ben Podcast is.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
A brand new series of Moving Houses on on TV
and Z starting this weekend, with a brand new host
as well, taking over from Clark Gave for his former
All Black Andy Allie and he joins us right now.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Andy Ellis says, we live and breathe.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
All right, how are you doing? Very exciting the new
host of Moving Houses. It's an impressive show to watch,
like some of the places that they go with these
massive trucks and then putting these huge houses on the back.
I mean you get to ride shotgun for a lot
of it.
Speaker 7 (04:03):
What was it like very very long where we often
leave and travel at night, so and the moves could
be ten or twelve hours. And the thing is mate,
like these truck drivers, they're amazing at what they do.
They're really clever and nothing's never a problem. They can
get these houses into just any spaces. And the chet
quality as well.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
It's gonna be there's a lot of chat. I mean, John,
it's pretty good. You're good on flights, ain't it, John?
Like chatting just chating, But I mean.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Ten hours and a care for the truck driver. That's
that's a long haul for you.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
And did you get to the horn or anything? Like
that while you're in the trucks.
Speaker 7 (04:36):
Actually what they did, one bloke did and I probably
shouldn't say this because you know, we're not allowed to
show this on TV. But he actually let me drive,
like it's too thirdy in the morning, make you can drive.
It was pretty cool, But again I probably shouldn't be
telling me it.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
He just wanted to know if you were allowed to
hold a horn.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
You know, no, no, I go one bit of mate.
Is that kind of cool because you get to not
I need to move the houses there, but you sort
of check back in when they're up and sort of going,
And that must be kind of cool to go back
and see it all sort of starting to take shape.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Probably my favorite thing I reckon as meeting the couples
or the families first of all that are brave enough
to do this right. It's pretty cool because it's an
affordable way to get into the housing market, and you
sort of create this really cool relationship with them. You know,
you're part of their journey when they move the house,
and what happens is sort of we put it on
site and then I get to come back five months
later and see the beautiful job that they've done. On it,
(05:28):
but then get to catch up again with the families
or the couples that have actually done it and hear
about all the hard work they've put in and see
how proud they are of the end result. And I
think I'll keep in touch with them actually for people,
just because it's a really cool journey that they let
us all come on. It's pretty unique and pretty special.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Absolutely. Now, is it cheaper like if you were to
build a house or move a house? Oh?
Speaker 7 (05:49):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I meant a lot of these
people are getting them landed on a site somewhere for
one hundred and fifty one hundred and eighty grand, maybe
two hundred grand. You wrap around that sort of number
that's consented on its pile kind of ready to go.
I think the one thing that a lot of these
the people that move the houses don't fully understand is
how much work then goes on.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Yeah, that's where the cost comes in.
Speaker 7 (06:09):
Yeah, but if you're prepared to roll your sleeves up
and work bloody hard, and you know, because you're standing
back and painting things and you know, digging holes for
putting want to put a deck on, or standing back
beautiful old wooden floorboards. There's a lot of work and
all that, but and end up with a really beautiful,
affordable kind of family home.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I got and Andy ellis with us form Rugby Player
now the host of Moving Houses. It's on Sunday on
TV and Z one and TV and Z Plus. You've
moved houses yourself, not literally moved houses, but you've been
you've lived played your own christ Church. You've gone to Japan,
you've gone to New York. What was the coolest place
that you've lived?
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Oh, it's hard, it's Japan and New York were incredible.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, shouldn't really, shouldn't have put Christ cetemporary would be like,
what you didn't choose Christ? What do you mean you
chose New York over Christ? Outside of outside of Christ?
The question?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
It's great again, that's say between New York and Japan.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Yeah, I mean like New York. You know. The kids
were a good age too, they were kind of eight
and thirteen. So we literally landed in New York. We're
there for two years. I played a couple of seasons there,
the kids went to school and Manhattan. I don't know,
there's just so much energy in that place. The people
were great, you know, They really made us feel welcome.
We got invited to Thanksgiving dinners and celebrated Fourth of
julys and all this kind of real American culture stuff.
(07:26):
We kind of just got immersed in and just had
amazing memories and the biddy is and we've got lifelong
friends then now too. So we'll be back there. And
for sure, because you.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Were playing over there, right, you're playing in New York.
Speaker 7 (07:38):
Yep, yeah, I was playing in New York. So there's
there's been a rugby competition, the mL it's called in America,
and it's great, the twelve teams. So we'd fly to
New Orleans for a game and then the next week
we'd be in Seattle, then we'd be in Toronto. It
was well, it was such a cool competition to play in.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
And it's a very cool, very cool experience you've had,
But nothing compares to Christchurch. That's right, let's bring it.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Back today exactly, Anyhols, we look forward to moving houses
on this weekend. Also on this weekend the All Black,
so just quickly playing Ireland obviously watched last week's game
as well.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Do you still tune in every game?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Oh? Yeah, I love it, mate, I'm I'm a personate
all black fan there, so like bringing on this is
going to be a beauty in Dublin.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
I imagine there'll be times of us it is a
former all black times of frustration having to watch it
would be like us been we retire and then we
have to listen to another radio show.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I'll probably go down. They're a lot better than us.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
That's not where we say thank you, thank you so
much for your time, lovely to catch up mate and
moving houses is back and appreciate your.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
Time always, Lovely Jenning.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
You boys enjoy the hits that Jona wan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
We'll still talking about the big win for Donald Trump.
He is again well by the numbers, big time. Get
into the numbers like I'm sort of petty Gower on
some sort of you're.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Invested in the post numbers, the stats. You're like aiming
for a job on CNN or something. You know, those
people who touched the screens, those things looking good. In Florida,
although there's this unique suburb which was Democrat now as Republican.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
There was verity Fear yesterday put out a little little
thing by the numbers, Trump returns to power and they
had a picture of him, and I thought it was
interesting that were like thirty four fallon accounts, one conviction,
two cases pending to impeachment, two impeachment, six bankruptcies, four
more years was the thing, the forty seventh president of America.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
But it really does some of America just those stats
right there, when when you have a little look at
who voted, and a lot more females voted for Trump
than I would have thought.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I mean really obviously that he had to because he
won by a bit, they had to be the case.
But Trump got fifty four percent of the males voting
for him, and so it still means that was forty
four percent of females voted for voted for Trump.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
That is, that is a lot more than I would
have imagined. What was the little gap in between there once?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Now I guess it's people who don't identify as I'm
guessing har He's got fifty four percent of the females
a female, but it's just she's got more females and males.
But yes, say, still a lot more females voted for
Trump than maybe I would have thought. Trump got fifty
five percent of white people voting for him, whereas eighty
six percent of black people voted for Harris, so a
lot a lot of white men voted for Trump and
(10:16):
a lot of white women as well, So that's I
guess where he won.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Those are the stats.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Broken just said that off as a new self sort
of thing. It's nut.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
It's not really much of a thing. Someone said that
to someone, But you're just reading out other people's stairs.
You've got to come to the owner stats. But I
commented and posted those stats, Carmela. She did do a
concession speech around about ten am our time yesterday, and
you know, as we expected, very gracious and defeat and
(10:45):
very presidential in her speech.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
So let me say my heart is full today, full
of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me,
full of love for our country, and full of results.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
We have been intentional about building community and building coalitions,
bringing people together from every walk of life and background,
united by love of country, with enthusiasm and joy in
our fight for America's future.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You go very very presidential, But unfortunately that's the one
thing that she's not gonna be. Yeah, whereas you compare
that to Trump, who just feels like he just gets up,
and maybe that's what resonates with people. Something that's he
goes off scraps and gets into some weird places. Appreciation
for Susie and the job you did.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Susie. Come, Susie, Come.
Speaker 9 (11:42):
Here, Susane.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Susie likes to stay sort.
Speaker 10 (11:44):
Of in the back.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Let me tell you, Susie likes to stay in the background.
She's not in the back.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I've never seen to be shocked before, Suzusie.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah, so maybe that's what reason that maybe people don't
want the prepropeed speeches. I had another radio station saying
yesterday that for some reason, a billionaire seems to relate
better to Middle America than the other candidate.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Do you know this crazy thing? I was sawn to
Brent Radkin, who reads the news and does the night
show here on the Hits. He's one of those people
that you bump into and he's always got a new
interesting story to tell you. Don't you find that about
Brin And he was saying in the eighteen hundred, so
eighteen eighty nine, there was some books, kids books written
called the Baron Trump Novels. He's got a son called
Baron Trump, Amen Trump, Amen, Benjamin. And the book's basically
(12:30):
the main protagonist in the books very similar to Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
This is written in the eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
In the eighteen hundreds, so basically, Baron Trump would go
around offending people. He was precarious, relentless, and prone to
get in trouble. He often mentions his massive brain. He
has a personalized insult for most people he meets. Also,
Baron Trump and these books lives in a building called
Castle Trump, where Donald Trump obviously lived in Trump Town.
(13:00):
I was for decades. Obviously Donald Trump's sons name's Bart
names Baron, as you just mentioned, and there was a
vision of the book called The Last President. Okay, Now,
this book and The Last President from the eighteen hundreds
is from the eighteen ninety six presidential election. That's where
a scent, That's where a scent, And it follows a
shocking victory of a populous candidate in the eighteen nineteen
(13:21):
six presidential election who brings the downfall of the American Republic.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Well, there we go. It's Simpsons, they say predicted the future.
But this book from the eighteen hundreds might have done
just that.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Well. The fascinating the Heads that Jonavan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And the bath Matts situation that people aren't. I've found
over the years, bath Matt is something that people can
get wound up in your house.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
I feel like you're very irresponsible in your approach to
the bar, and maybe I am like, I get that.
I'll take that on the chance.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So I used to flat with someone, you know the person,
and he used to get really wound up. And because
when I'm done with the shower, I'm out, I am that.
I'm not lingering around, I'm not drying myself. I am
moving on with my day. I like to keep moving.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Do you know what someone's actually texting wind of those
texts and it was this morning at six o'clock and
it was about your love of getting stuff done and
moving forward, constantly moving forward. They said, why does Ben
always have to be doing things? It makes me feel
lazy and he's always talking about it on the radius.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Sorry, I got that.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Why don't you always have so much emman to do?
It makes me feel very lazy when I haven't done something.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Apology, So it's not my intention. I'm just like talking
about stuff with me.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
He's a moving forward.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
So shower's done, I'm out, I'm on my way, I'm
getting dry, I'm standing what I thought. The bath mat
was used for getting dried on, and.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
You dry, you pull the towel and you dry yourself
in the shower. Why wouldn't you dry yourself in the
wettest environment then hop out with your dry body, thus
not saturating the bath mat.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I used to wind up because I would be first
up up and adam moving forward and the flat though
used to live in many years ago, and it would
wind up out my flat at the time, who you know,
John O, And I would always hear bead like yeah
out and a comical sitcom yeah where he would get
out of the shower and discover that the bath mat
was still but yeah, but too soggy.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And so then would you also just leave the mat
on the ground, you don't hang it up?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well yeah, well this is the other thing. This is
the thing that winds up my wife. Now I will
hang it up, but very really, when I know I'm
up first, I'm like, well, just leave it for her,
and then she can do it because it's other. But
she doesn't like that. She thinks it's me not hanging
Later she's like, I'm like, well, yeah, but you're going
to have a shower. I've left it there for you.
You're just gonna have to grab it off that you know,
(15:35):
the rack and put it down on.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
The floor, but saving her valuable sick sickens every day,
sickened up boy.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, So this has become a new bone of contention
about the bath mat at home between my wife and I.
She's like, oh, one time, I'd like you to pick
up the bath mat, and I'm probably moving forward my day.
I'm not looking back at the bath mat. I'm just
moving forward afternoon. So I've now decided to not use
the bath mat or tilt, and then I'm not getting
in trouble for not no soggy bath mate and not
(16:06):
getting in trouble for not putting it away. But the downside,
as the floor can very slippery.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
It feels like you remember those commercials, those PSA commercials
and people hopping out the bay over and yeah, paralyzed
or something.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yes, that was like no bath matte, there we go.
That was that was that'll.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Teach it as you as you're drinking, moving forward movement.
Speaker 11 (16:28):
Maybe I shouldn't do that. Actually I don't recommend that.
I do feel sorry for the bath met though. It's
like like the Carpet's poor cousin, who's like, what do
you do? I spend all day saturated sitting on these tops.
Sometimes people take the kid to put me back and
dry me off. Othertimes I just sit here and rot away.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Ye're true, you put it on a shelf. You put it,
then we just stand on it again, don't we.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Carp It's like, oh, outre dry people walking all over me.
Things are great even now, and then I get spilled on.
But even were Apart from there.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
The heads that John and Ben podcast game that we.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Have started to play leading up to Christmas, and you
can play along as well. You can start right from now.
You just got to avoid hearing Mariah Carey's All I
Want for Christmas. It's the most iconic Christmas song. We
thought we'd see how long it would take us to
try not to hear that song.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
And it's this moment I would usually, given the rules
and regulations of commercial radio, I'd be playing the hook
of that so you can't know.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Otherwise we would be out of the game. Soon as
you hear it, you are out, and you need to
text us four four eight seven, And as soon as
we're all out, we'll start playing the song.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
It's a great song, don't get us wrong.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
We just thought it's the most iconic, the hardest one
to avoid this time of year.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Mediampg in the afternoons, they're playing along with us two.
Once all five of us are out of the game,
we're going to we're gonna officially start playing it on
the station. But a lot of people playing along as well,
listening so many texts and calls going oh I'm out.
TikTok got me out. I went into a shop yesterday,
and so we thought we'd would ramp things up after
the program yesterday, and we put some locations, some volatile,
(17:54):
high risk locations into a hat and we each had
to pull one out. Meghan ended up getting the Eye
Heart Radio Christmas station.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Yea, she had to listen to five minutes of the
Christmas station. You had to go in the mall, the
Westfield mall for five minutes where the Christmas decorations are up.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
And I had to scroll through TikTok just keep throwing
just in five minutes, which has been the one that
has caught most people out.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It was quite nerve wracking. So here we are spending
five minutes doing those various things trying to avoid listening
to Mariah Carey.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
I don't know how I'm going to avoid the classic
that is Riah Carey.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
We're starting with Tata slow, sullid Night. Okay, culture shocks.
I had is American living in New Zealand. Can I
watch it?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I gotta keep styling, gotta keep strilling.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
The decos are out, the music at the moment, not
feeling overly Christmas Eve.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It's not Mariah.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
This is so scary because you just don't know what's next.
That's that sounds like no scrubs from TLC.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
That's all right, we're in the club. We all fam
when I did, we did?
Speaker 2 (18:59):
We did.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I'm trying to get out. I've got footy seconds left
and I think the song's about to finish.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
We've done it. We've done it five minutes. No, Mariah,
carry all I want for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
We made it out safely prior over an hour, so
we're still all still in the game. But we'd love
to know right now. Tell you what you feel like?
An absolute? What don't you wander around them all filming
yourself talking to yourself?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Let's go absolute? What's it a blog? Is he doing that?
No one's gonna watch.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
So, oh that's sad. That's just what has come to. Yeah,
four eight seven, are you still in the game or
maybe you're out.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
We'd love to hear from you this morning.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
The hits that JOHNA and Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
All right.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Mariah Carey also done some great stuff. She wrote a
song in fifteen minutes, All I Want for Christmas, written
in fifteen minutes, which astounds me.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Incredible, right, and think about it from now, okay, and
then at by eight o'clock she would have written the.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Song, and a song that's garnered her over sixty million
dollars in the royalties over the years. Every year a
million bucks she pulls in from All I Want for
Chris Crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
So it's and it's an iconic bang. And as we
keep saying, we love it, but we're trying to avoid
it because it's the most iconic Christmas song. We see
how long we can avoid hearing it in our lives.
You can play along as well for four eight seven
and let us know when you're out of the game,
and when we're all out of the game our show
and the Drive Show, then we'll start playing the song.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Most and serious apologies to Mariah, Mariah. She might not
be getting royalties from us at the moment, but eventually
they'll start those valuable New Zealand eer play royalties. Let's
get Brenda on the phone. How are you?
Speaker 12 (20:27):
Oh, I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Good, thank you? Are you still in the game?
Speaker 10 (20:32):
No?
Speaker 1 (20:33):

Speaker 12 (20:35):
Clicked on a wool worst real long Facebook a.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Glory glory, So Mariah here, No, so you're out of
the game.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Was using her in a campaign?
Speaker 13 (20:49):
Are they using her?
Speaker 10 (20:52):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
So that's going to be very hard for us all
to avoid. Isn't that they did your bear?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Well?
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Gonna, We'll do you good to put you in the

In the band YouTube, it's or YouTube. Now there's no
other Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey is not in the movie.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Oh yeah, I think it's fine.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
That's why I know. We just stipulated it had to
be recording artists and multi billionaire Mariah Carey singing the
song live, all recorded.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Version of it. But the little girl on the end
where she's like, all I want for you and she
points at.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
The little She's got a great voice. Yeah, could I
play it now? Is that? Well, you can't play Mariah,
but you can play that version. You want me to
play that version?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
A little okay, a little hit mate. Yeah, So we're still
on the game. Listen to that, okay?
Speaker 14 (22:03):
On that for Christmas?
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Felt good? That's feel good?
Speaker 1 (22:09):
A little bit more. There's just one thing, Melli.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
You're a little bit more.
Speaker 10 (22:16):
Oh, I definitely want.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
I don't care about the present on Jeannie the Christmas tree.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
That'll do.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Only my Kappa is full.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
We've got our facts, all right. You're still in the game,
and you're also still to go to New York for
the jingle Ball. We're gonna put you on the draw
for that giving away this afternoon on the Hats.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Thank you every grade down. What are you doing today
in christ I'm at work right now. No good, We'll
get back to mate. Not paying anybody called radio the.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Something that happened with my daughter Poppy just just last night. Okay,
she and she ticks. Just as I was doing that
things that I know what you're about to talk about,
she said, I did. I did very well. So that's
your stance. It starts you have a slightly different, slightly
different take on it, and you can you can decide.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Now has probably rattled your story is the fact that
she's listening to it. There's raddles. You're probably like, well,
you know yesterday you're like, yeah, yeah, I heard, I
heard you wreck out of the story off. Yeah, I
will see you.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I won't filter.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
I won't filter.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
I'll tell you my account and maybe we can get
her on Poppy. You can call the phones.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Yeah, you want to call it something if you want,
we could play it later. That's fine now.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
So I was picking it up from dance and she
hopped in the car. She declared, I will be guiding
us home. Okay, you will listen to only my instructions
to get home, and and I was like, okay, this
is a fun thing and interesting, just sort of experiment
for me to go. I wonder, what you know a
twelve year old gauge is of getting from point A
to point B. So how far would you have to go?
(23:46):
Like if you can''s probably say seven or eight case. Okay,
bit of a drive, but you know, we do it weekly,
we do it regularly. And I was out of curiosity.
I was like, this is fun. Okay, let's I was
gonna It was like it was kind of like if
you like Google Maps, but you dislike getting to your
destination the quickest way possible, then may I suggest listening
(24:06):
to your kids good directions. But every street she tored me,
she turned me down. I was like, in my head,
I was like, this is the wrong way, right, this
is we are going the wrong way. I'm doing this
myself on a month. This is a fun exercise to
do with the kid. And she would go, keep going,
keep going, and then she'd go left. She'd go, no, no,
keep going, keep going, and then you go left here
(24:27):
with confidence sometimes and I'd follow it, and it dawned
on me pretty quickly. She had no idea where she was.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So how long has the trip generally meant to take?
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Jeez, I'd say ten to fifteen okay.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
And how long roughly would this added a little bit
more extra time?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, Like it got to a point where I'm like,
we are probably twelve minutes over now arrive at her destination,
and it was a one and done scenario. Probably won't
be doing it again. We were pretty much two or
three suburbs over from where we needed to be.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Do you have to help to get back in or not?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
At one point she was like left here and I
turned right and she's like, you're ignoring my structure.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I was like, yeah, because because yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
The way to go. But we got there in the end.
But you know, she she did pretty well. I'd say
it would have taken her an hour and a half
to get home, but she would have. She definitely would
have got her. So we'll poppy again. If you're listening, Darling,
Yeah you can. You can say your side of the story. Yeah,
that's your side of the story that count might have
been you know a bit of radio drama.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Yeah, well you can. Yeah, you can feel free to
correspond your side of the story as well, the hits.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
That johnaan Ben podcasts.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Yeah, can we get producer Ellien here too, actually, because
we're talking about this after the show used today. Now,
it's not a complaint to deal with the actual vehicle,
just more of the people that commute with you, that
that drive with you.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Okay, so that's what the sort of complaints that you
want that complaints about the other passengers.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Yeah, you know, things like that. That's right now, Ellie.
You you played lovely partner see him?
Speaker 4 (25:57):
Yes, yes, lovely, lovely man, lovely man.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
We're never about to rinse people out. Were always likely
lovely just because we're there here at later and they're like, yes,
talking about you.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Like but I said, I said lovely, lovely, exact.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Carel everything you just said, there's no dispute.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Is a lovely man.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Lovely man, however, really irks me when he's my passenger. Now,
I'll provace it by saying, when he was a bit younger,
he did have a bit of a car crash, so
he's a little bit he's got a little bit of
pet stand so I have patience for him.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
However, it sounds like you don't do much.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Yeah, sometimes it's really annoying because we'll be approaching an
off ramp and it's like two k's away and I'm like, yeah, easy,
I'm in the right hand lane, you're right, two k's
to go across. Yeah, and he's already going are you
gonna you're gonna move late? What are you gonna move lights?
And I'm like, yeah, I've got I've got it. And
then by the time I.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Do it, he's just like, oh, that was too late.
It was too late. No, it was too late. He's
an organized driver before with him.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Look, I've had a couple of dicey. Yeah, I did
miss one, and there was a couple it was so like,
you know, it was right about it.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Again, you don't have a great trick. Recorded some blemishes,
okay a little bit.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
And then also they'll be like a car coming up behind,
or I'll but be going a little bit like following
a little bit too closely, and he's like, but then
it gives me a fright and then I'm a more
dangerous driver.
Speaker 11 (27:22):
So annoying.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
You don't want the person you like they're in a
seance or something like that.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
But lovely God, lovely guy, lovely guy, that guy.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Lovely guy. The compliments sand was just complete. So what
is the complain that you want to make about? Maybe
your partner who's lovely partner. Lovely partner loves lovely people.
You travel within the car, But what complaints would you
like to make? Maybe you're the passenger, maybe you're the driver.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
We'll take all I'll share one that gim she is
about me, and I can see why it would irritate you.
You got something about me too, driving a lovely guy,
but lots of lots about the.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Hits that John and Ben podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Talking about your car complaints. It complains about people that
you drive with regularly eight hundred the hits four four
eight seven is the text machine. My wife Jen, she
really really irritates her when I because I refuse to
use Google Maps driving around the city of Like I've
been in the city for nearly forty years. I know
every nook and cranny of the space, everybody's secret little
(28:25):
back alleyway, even little shortcut you name it. That irritates
you when I take shortcuts, doesn't it?
Speaker 1 (28:30):
You go through like fruit World stores and also.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Drive through a wash World, petel station, through a kindergarten,
you know, just to shave off valuable seconds if you
drive time. So I don't use Google Maps. And google
Maps is great technology, isn't. It really gets you from
point A to pointd B as quickly as possible, and
I'll be late. Sometimes she's like, did you use Google Maps?
Speaker 6 (28:52):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
I went off my gut instinct, gut interstinct. And the
other thing too, that winds we have to about Google
Maps is I always feel press that I put on
myself to beat the arrival time.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Really sometimes like a challenge that they sit. Yeah, my wife,
she will I'll go off and say, because I love
Google Maps, I'll be like, can you put that in?
And she'll like yep, and then she'll turn it off
and halfway through the troups just like go yep, got that,
And I'm like, just keep it on, keep it on.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Today, like it'll.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Follow the things. She's like, no, I've got it. I've
just seen it now and I've got it. But I'm like,
but I have to now correspond through her. I'm like,
just leave google Maps tell us where we need to go.
It knows where to go. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
So are you quite an interactive passage?
Speaker 1 (29:33):
I like to know. I like to keep looking at
Google Maps. Yeah, yeah, see the updates, but she'll just
turn it off again and then I have to sometimes
go back into it.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I'm like, just keep it on, keep it on, Lucy,
you're on. How are you this morning?
Speaker 10 (29:48):
Oh morning, guys, I'm good things. How are you?
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Yeah? Good, It's lovely to have you on, Lucy. Car complaints,
who's it about?
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yes, my husband, I'm admittedly a passenger prince who's most
of the time, but he recently told me that he
feels like he's in a prolonged car crash when I'm driving.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Oh, like, what, so something's going to happen at some stage?
Speaker 7 (30:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (30:09):
I think maybe I'm two porters that he feels tense
the entire ride.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
He is he holding onto things? Is he?
Speaker 7 (30:16):
Yes?
Speaker 10 (30:16):
I feel like he looks tense, like I've never crashed.
I have never crashed before. But I don't know why
he's got this feeling.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
A lot of it people, I think, are those who
probably like to be in control of the surroundings. So
if you're a passenger, you're vulnerable, you're not in charge.
My dad was like, there he'd be when ever might
drive my dear because it's a very radic driver on
the roads. As many tickets would testify. My dad will
push an imaginary brake with his fire and.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
We're going to check you out of the Jay to New
York to hopefully go see Teddy Swims, Katy Perry and
Moore at the jingle Ball.
Speaker 10 (30:50):
Hey, amazing, Thanks for the luck.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Have a great week in Lucy. Appreciate that we're going
to go to care Keeley, how are you hi?
Speaker 10 (30:58):
I'm good. How are you?
Speaker 3 (30:58):
We're doing really well? Keey watched your car complaint this morning.
Speaker 12 (31:02):
Well, my partner constantly, every time I drive, will hold
the holy crap handle, which is the handle above your hair.
I could not stand it, and sometimes.
Speaker 14 (31:16):
Even followed with a WinCE like that, you know, and
it's like, can you not. I'm perfectly fine bick the holy.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Because we already think about what is it really for.
It's just when you're like, geez, I'm really freaking out.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
When you're driving with Keeley exactly. Oh that is great.
And so how does he drive though?
Speaker 12 (31:38):
Well, yeah, he thinks he's a perfect driver, but I
don't hold the holy crap handle even when I should.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Yeah, all right, it's good. I love the holy crap.
It's really making a statement, is we're going to put
you in the drawer as well.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Good luck. You could be going to New York this afternoon.
Make sure you listen to men in PJ.
Speaker 12 (31:57):
God, my goodness, thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
All right, you'll need your holy crap handles over there
on that traffic. Good on, you appreciate it. Someone's texting
as well, my partner. Wherever we are in a car
park of any kind, there's a park. There was a park,
there was a there, there's a park. There's that park.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
That's a place for bickering, tell you what.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
And for some reason, when there's more car parks available,
that opens up the bickering. So I got that one.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
There was one the hits that jonaan Ben podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
I like to catch up with this person every week.
We stumbled across Danniella. She works for the Quest Hotel
on Titango, where I was trying to track down a
missing sock that I had, and she's great, she's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
This is wonderful. Bonjoorno, Daniella.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Here we go. That was actually just reading Italian news
actually today, well some not not news. I wasn't looking
for Italian news, but the Fontana de Trevy, the Treviy
found on the famous one.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
Where you got engaged.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
I got engaged. They've actually drained. They're doing some renovations
on it. Rained it at the moment, and there's like
almost like a little peddling pool they put in front
so people can get a photo with water there and
throw your coins in, But the actual pool was under
maintenance at the moment. I don't know if you know
about that.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
No, sorry, I'm across Italian news.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'm across. It's come across my news desk.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
But they take all the coins out.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Apparently they make it and make it over a million,
a million and a half dollars they give to charity
by people throwing coins annual mountain, yeah, every year a million. Yeah,
they give it all the charity. But over a million
and a half yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Well, and those are very honest, trustworthy Italians. They don't
even dip their little Italian fingers in there and steal
the coins. I always wondered, like if I was just
to just place a fountain in the middle of the city,
how much I would garner, how much revenue would Garnica.
You know, you just you check a couple of coins
and need to get the ball rolling, and just it's
like busking put some things in there, and you're like,
(33:52):
people just want to throw coins in.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
But there's lots of fountains around that people don't throw
money into.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, what you need to do is you just need
to get starting half a dozen coins to get that
thing anyway.
Speaker 8 (34:03):
Sorry, okay, carry.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
On now, daniel Awdia have been playing a bit of
