And we noticed another radio station that we hadn't heard

an amazing set up, just an amazing you see.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
They run a tight ship doing the Today the Day Show,
just as through the Hits, I didn't realize.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
I came in with my breakfast banter like yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
They wrapped me up, which is good because I would
have just praddled on and really killed the vibe. So
even at that.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Shows, it's a very tight ship. Being aloud to waffle.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
I know it's even at that age. They are fast up,
prayer than me. Broadcasting. They did a great job, but
he was us talking to the really talented young kids
from the Fridge radio station.

Speaker 5 (01:09):
We're coming with drawn joined forces, which cold Play last
night was all about love and people coming together, and
that's what I'm doing right now on the Fridge. And
I feel like, I don't know, contractually am I allowed
to be on this radio station.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I don't know, but it's great from.

Speaker 6 (01:27):
Wrapping me up.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
You guys keep it tight here, don't you. It's probably
what you're probably reading better than that there.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
We got pretty pretty talented, pretty talented. As said, they're
coming from our jobs, probably sing but and I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
A bit jealous that they have more advanced software than.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:44):
They had a broadcast truck, I know, no more corner
from the hits. He's doing the day show, the Canterbury Show,
under a t it's raining. He's got like a scourgey
scange old microphone. He's all that keeps cutting out. So
we ended up doing recording.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
On the You go on to this caravan amazing just
be Yeah they did it. Yeah, that was awesome.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Brunei's Palace and yeah, but we better wrap it up, guys,
because I've been going too long.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
So enjoy the podcast and we'll catch on Monday.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Coming to from christ Church today where it's a public holiday.
We always wanted to do that thing when you went
around all the regions and experience the public holidays.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Yes, yeah, I pitched there's an idea.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
I was like, we could go to everyone, but and
then they're like, you're working in.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
The region and no one else's feel being Hereah.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
I was like trying to the public holiday chasers. So
here we are in christ Church.

Speaker 7 (02:35):
But then there's literally no one in.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Doing their own thing.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Could get the day off. Then you could go from
place to place.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
They'd be great, But we are getting time and a
half because technically in the region.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah, maybe that's late we do we get time and
a half to it.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
I don't think we are and half. After the Coldplay
concert that we went to on Wednesday night, it was
quite late. We get up quite early, three forty five
is my alarm, and we had that chat to a
few people. So it wasn't till about eleven o'clock that
my husband and I were out on the street. I

(03:09):
had organized to get the same Uber driver that had
taken us here. It was awesome. So we gave him
a text and he was like, oh, come and walk
and meet me here.

Speaker 7 (03:19):
Great, everything's organized, it's sorted. The plan is flawless because I.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Just want to get out there and get to bed.

Speaker 7 (03:25):
Do you want to make a quick exit from that event?

Speaker 3 (03:27):
So we start walking, you know me and very like
inappropriate shoes, but I was fine.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
She was racing lawn mowers yesterday in high hills.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Even at the christ Show. You're right, like I had.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
I brought some gun boots down the fiend and you
had some fancy sort of shoes.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
But did I did I complain because we did a
lot of walking, and I always say I don't complain
about my shoes because it's self inflicted. So I never complained.
But we were walking for five minutes and my husband,
after a few beerb's, was like, stop, I'm just going
to check the ubers and see if I can get
a cheaper price, because we'd set a price.

Speaker 7 (04:03):
I was like, okay.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
I gave him grace and I was like, you can
have a couple.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Of minutes, but this is a surging time. This is
the time.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
To him, I was like, I've set a price. It
is currently surging.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yeah, it's not going to be any cheaper.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
No, So he's looking and he was like, this one's
sixty bucks, but we have to catch it at eleven thirty.
I was like, it's currently eleven o'clock. I'm not waiting
half an hour. So I was like, walk as you look,
and I was very weare on the street. There's lots
of people trying to leave cold place.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
I love a public bickering couple. It makes me feel
the better about my relationship.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
You start to countdown how long you've got to sleep,
and I was like, I'm losing time. So I was like,
walk and look. We'll walk towards the gouber and you
can look. And he wants me to stop again, and
he wants to call someone else, and I was like,
I have booked this guy. I have booked this guy.
He's waiting for us. I was like, you will have
to call him to sort it out, and he's like,

(04:56):
just wait a second. We start to raise our voice
and I was like, Andrew, and yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I wanted the film.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Just take the taxi. At this point, I don't care
about twenty bucks. I was like, I don't care if
you get it cheaper.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
I do not.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
He had a few whiskey. Yeah, you saw him being
it's a fine for drunk.

Speaker 7 (05:22):
He's doing drunk. Myth athemeticians to.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Him as like a million dollars. And so I did
anything where we're you know, we're raising our voices. And
I suddenly had a moment where I stopped and I
became aware of my surroundings and there were people watching
us have this this conversation on the street, and I
was like, we're one of those couples have a loud argument.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
I did, from the most wholesome, beautiful concert argument. I
was like, this last words is what the world needs
ols more love. And then outside you're.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
Like the hits that johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Trust It show, Big weekend christ Church obviously the show
going on the races, another big day tomorrow and we
got to experience, as we said earlier before the christ
Chit Show, wandering around, taking part in the rides, amusements,
seeing the animals so much to do and see so much.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
We also got a text for being part of mainstream media.

Speaker 7 (06:23):
Were spreading misinformation.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
It was quite funny because it was like a version
of the Eiffel Tower there was. It was quite impressive,
like obviously not as big, but I was like, that's
still a funny video. At the start, we'll pretend we're
in Paris, you know, the Rugby this weekend, and then
we'll reveal that we're in the christ Chit show.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
That's what I told you guys.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
So we started going, hey, we're in Paris outside the
Stiffel Tower, and then someone walked past going lies, lies,
that's information, make news media, And I was like, we
didn't get to the punchline yet, but look like we're
going to be lying as mainstream media.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
And to be fair, like all the show is this misinformation,
amount of disinformation I've spread half heartedly researched.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Now, lawmar racing is something we're both you and I
are taken part and they basically soup up right on
lawnmowers and you can go really really fast around the
track around the grass.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yeah, we went to Ikatahuna, didn't We did it on
in a guy's backyard. He set up a lawnmarer racing
track and one of the most big takeaway from katahunas
they didn't have many retailers.

Speaker 7 (07:21):
But they had a six shop.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah, they've got an out shot one of the four
shops I think they have there.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Literally, it gets very lonely and the wid.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
You're driving through and you're like, actually, I would be
meaning to pick up something, ye, or that town has
just overrun with everyone gets one for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, that Lawmar Racing. But yesterday we got to take part.
Well you guys did. I got to commentate you guys
around the track. Megan, I didn't think you were going
to take part with you sare arm.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
To be honest, when you first seen lawnmar Racing, I
didn't realize they could go sixty k's. I didn't realize
they'd been souped up. I thought it was like, oh,
look how fast our lawnmars could go. But they were
like little gokuts.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Well you're an f one, big fan of your one,
so you had to get involved. And here's how it
went on the track, Lawnmar Racing, that's what we've all
been waiting for, the pinnacle of the christ It show.
It's the lawnmarer RaSE and Megan, you're about to start now.
We thought you're out because of your arm, but you
think you can do this.

Speaker 7 (08:13):
I think I can.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
It doesn't have past hearing, so I don't hold out
much hope, but I'm preparing to give it a go.

Speaker 7 (08:19):
It's the underdog story. It is the underdog story, Benis.
She comes through with the victory.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Here with carpl tunnel surgery and choosing and not conducive
to the academy, the chrosh it show.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
No, you're right, actually yeah, but anyway.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Story in my life really okay, all right, well good luck.
So just about you're about to start, and so you're saying,
what happened?

Speaker 8 (08:39):
One guy first time out rolled like three times bro
seven ribs and a punch it lung.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Wow, okay, lawnmar racing Megan.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
They're calling Liam Laudson. It's a great part that John
I came up with them. They're away here they go. Wow,
John has not taken off. How fast can these go?

Speaker 9 (09:00):
I think how fast? It says about sixty five kilters
an hour?

Speaker 1 (09:03):
The word's quicking this.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Oh yeah, So we're watching Megan right now and John O,
how do you think they're going?

Speaker 9 (09:09):
While they're holding their own they're good, they're good. It's
hard to tell who's in front now. Yeah, a bit
of laughing going on there.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yeah, gotcha, Vegan, how'd you go?

Speaker 3 (09:18):
I'm not gonna lie. I feel like I was Daniel
Ricardo with a sore hand. I should have like subbed out.
That's one for the IF one fans, but they're very fast.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
I heard about Tempeston to watch your sid so I
hope that you heard that there.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
You were buzzing afterwards. It your Megan.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
That was pretty fun. Yeah, when you put your foot
down and they go pra it's like, that's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
I know that John.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
You at one stage, John, I was just really want
to go overtake you at one stage, Yeah, come back
for a little bit. And then after a while, who's
just like no, I'm going for it.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
But it didn't look like a lot of fun out there.

Speaker 6 (09:51):
And it's the hits that johnaan Ben.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Podcast playing a really fun game that you can get
involved into.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
All I Want for Christmas, the Mariah Carey Classics.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
You've just got to see how long you can go
avoiding that song on social media when you go into shops.
I had a scary moment the other day going into
the mall and I heard Mariah Carey playing and like,
oh my goodness, I'm out of the game. And then
I realized, no, it was another one of her bangers emotions.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Let's how high she is on the song?

Speaker 7 (10:21):
Wow, good lord, it's impressive.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yeah, And so then I went from I went from
fear and then to like, gee, she's an amazing voice,
just incredible.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
And it's not like we don't like the song All
I Want for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
We just thought it's the most iconic Christmas song, trying
to avoid it for as long as possible.

Speaker 7 (10:35):
Can we compare Mariah singing to your singing off her music?

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Have we got that.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Made me sing like that? I was I definitely can't
sing that. I that's that wasn't me. That was Megan too,
By the way, I should have claimed that.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
Actually, yeah, we've done pretty well so far. I think
just over two weeks we've managed to avoid All I
Want for Christmas used today Maddy McLain caught in a
cheating scandal. That's what that would have been the salacious
headline on the woman's magazine, Matty McLean's Cheating Scandal. But
then a listener had set up a burner account on
social media and had tried to lure and trap him

(11:10):
in to click on a video which had that as
a soundtrack. Many claims he runs his stories on mute
when he's running.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yes, so we're saying, okay, we'll believe he's still in
the game. Our boss, Matt joins us. Right now, Good morning, Matt,
you're already out of the game.

Speaker 7 (11:22):
Good morning, indeed, I am.

Speaker 10 (11:23):
I have been eliminated and the least sorry in the
most surprising way.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Hell on social media.

Speaker 10 (11:29):
No, not on social media. So you know I'm very
loyal to you guys. Obviously I listened to the Hats
a lot, you guys, Betty and PJ. I know that
this is a safe space, but sometimes when I want
some more intellectual conversation.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Oh, you've been caught cheating too.

Speaker 7 (11:43):
No, no, no, let's not throw the cheating word around.

Speaker 6 (11:46):
No.

Speaker 10 (11:46):
I was listening to a little bit of NEWSTALKSZ'DB, and
I think that would.

Speaker 7 (11:49):
Be a safe space.

Speaker 6 (11:50):
Right.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
It's a talk radio station, right, weighing a gender.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
Typically, they don't play a.

Speaker 7 (11:55):
Lot of music.

Speaker 10 (11:56):
They don't play any music except for when they go
to talk about the one point two minision dollar Christmas
Tree downtown Auckland and here to do Plus y Ellen
came at me with some Mariah Carey and.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
So she's still in there.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
They'll teach ye.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Also, if you want an intellegal conversation, you're still tuned
speaking to find your intellegial conversation anywhere else.

Speaker 7 (12:16):
My friend, I've been here three years.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
When's it going to start? Yeah, so that's out of
the game. You s be tripped them up. I think
we've got Debrah. How did the heads? Good morning, Debrah?

Speaker 11 (12:29):
Good morning?

Speaker 7 (12:30):
Hell are you de Do you enjoy her intellegal conversation?

Speaker 12 (12:33):
Occasionally?

Speaker 11 (12:34):
Yep?

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Good? Are you in the game? We're out of the game.

Speaker 12 (12:39):
I am most certainly out of game.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Oh what got you?

Speaker 12 (12:44):
I decided my six and eight year old daughters wanted
to listen listen to some Christmas music, and I indulge
them with Kelly Clarks and under the Tree and next
in line with Mariah Carey.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Oh so I just recommended it. Do we straight to it?

Speaker 12 (13:02):
Straight to it on YouTube? And I was out and
they were well aware I was playing this game.

Speaker 7 (13:07):
So ohs and songs.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
That's a great song.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Yeah, we do appreciate your honesty. Thank you so much
for playing the game. We've lost another soldier. Another one
bites the dust. But you going have a wonderful weekend. Alright, Debrah,
thank you so much. Let's get Caitlyn on. Welcome to
the show, Caitlin.

Speaker 13 (13:28):
Hello, good morning, lovely to have you on.

Speaker 14 (13:31):
Now.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
You have a query around the rulings of this competition yet,
so I don't know.

Speaker 13 (13:36):
If I then are out at the moment, because the
other night I had a dream and in my dream
I heard Mariah Carey's version of All I Want for Christmas,
And in my dream I was like, oh, I'm out,
Oh my gosh, you guy clearly had a big impact
on my lifebout jeez.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
But not obviously.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
It wasn't didn't have the radio playing in real life
or anything like that. It was just in your dream.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
Yeah, I made it up coming from your brain, external sources.
I'm going to rule that You're.

Speaker 14 (14:10):
Right, okay, And you need to get a bit of
dreams too much.

Speaker 15 (14:20):
Man.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
That Jona and Ben podcast sitting into another but weekend
with two more Coldplay.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Concerts in New Zealand.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
But we're playing a really fun game to do with
Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas. Just talk about
before as soon as you hear any part of that song.
You are out of the game. You gotta see how
long you're going to last heading into the festive season.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah. We just spoke to Deborah who's she was caught
out of the game, and Caitlin too, who at a
query if she dreamed that she heard Mariah's version in
her sleep, does that counter out? We decided, well, know
that's some external source providing that audio.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yep, so she's still in the game. Now we have
some breaking news.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
We've got the breaking news thing, producer Grace, if we
got anything we can play right now.

Speaker 16 (15:08):
Guys, breaking news in a stroke of irin coincidence, Karma,
I don't know what category you put it under.

Speaker 7 (15:16):
We hang up from Caitlin, we go to the ads.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
I do what we all do, just go straight back
to our phones and devices in between songs.

Speaker 7 (15:25):
Okay, then I'm scrolling on Instagram.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
Now there's a funny turn the volume down.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Down videos play over and over. He's just slashing his
phone around hat hazardly.

Speaker 7 (15:37):
It's on me.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
So there's a funny skitch that a mother's done. She's like,
when my son asked me what I got him for Christmas?
And it hard cuts to her all around the house
going Wi Fi Electricity Taxi rides.

Speaker 7 (15:50):
A hint of sarcasm in her performance, and I thought,
this is a funny skitch.

Speaker 4 (15:54):
I wonder if there's any audio, and I foolishly did
not look at the soundtrack that was playing, and it was.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
It was, Oh, he's the out of the game. Now.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
That means you have to hear some of my rendition
of all I want for Christmas. Now everyone can comfortably
listen to this will not comfortably uncomfortably actually yeah, yeah,
but this is the song that we play to all
our fallen soldiers.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
By love Christmas. That's that. Oh there is just one
thing I need. Oh god, we can't listen?

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Can we fast forward to the hook Grace too? That's
when he really starts to ramp up. Oh god, we
got there, No take back, no take two.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
I don't want a lot more Christmas.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Now.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
You know what I think we got Joe? I know
one hundred the hats. Can we get Joe on right now?

Speaker 17 (16:57):
Good morning, Joe Morning.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Now, apparently my version got someone out of the game.
How did that work?

Speaker 6 (17:04):
It did?

Speaker 17 (17:04):
So my wife and I we always listened to you
guys on our way into work, and so she's driving
and I just get dismissage from her saying, oh my god,
did you hear Ben's version on the radio? I'm like, yeah,
that was terrible, wasn't it? And so she'd text me
there She's like, I'm listening to Mariah now, And I said,
did you switch stations or did How did you get

(17:25):
end up with Mariah? I said, I just bought Spotify
and that was so bad I just had to listen
to So.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
I forced your wife to listen to the proper version
to get out of the game.

Speaker 4 (17:35):

Speaker 1 (17:40):
I appreciate you have a great weekend, Joe. Thanks for
playing the game.

Speaker 4 (17:44):

So if you're at a recital and they've come out, they
do a performance, you can't leave once they start. There's
a good question though, here's one, Megan, You've quite got
on answering this question. Okay, the questions come through four
four eight seven. If you hear the first few bars
of the song, then change the station. Are you still
in because you don't know if it's the Mariah version

(18:57):
or not.

Speaker 7 (18:58):
The singing hasn't start.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
Ah, it's moneably gonna be probably right. Yeah, but no,
that's let's say the vocals the Mariah's vocals.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
No, because then it gives you a chance to tap out.
I'm saying no. I'm saying they're out.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
And someone else is doing it with their workmates for
a sausage roll. Whoever hears at first has to shout
sausage rolls for the other team.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
So that's very good.

Speaker 7 (19:22):
Well, hey, thank you all for playing along. And well
the first victim on this you're the.

Speaker 6 (19:27):
Hits that jonaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Second night of Cold Play tonight, they're playing a third
night on Saturday. Everything you've seen probably on social media
just looks just incredible. So if you get a chance
to go along there on stage just after eight o'clock,
pretty pretty punchal about.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
Twenty the other night when they're.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Megan, I think we were told eight thirty and then they.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Got on.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Even Yeah, five minutes earliers late, that's right, and then
they played right up until ten thirty their Cure a
few time in park as well.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
So finished tenthty on the door a push boundary all
the way through. I even see the songs you didn't
know or you know a word as fond of you
still enjoyed because of the spectacle.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, just what they've got going on.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
It's just so much going on, you know, from the
screens to the costumes, the confetti, fireworks, you've seen all that.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
We keep on saying, but that was very surprising, but
it wasn't up said about it.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Yeah, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 7 (20:24):
So there's a great play from them.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
Even if you don't like our music, at least we
will bamboosed on you with our special feat.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
I mean they played all the Baggers, which is great.
But you're right the ones because there's always songs that
you maybe don't know. Normally there's a guitar solo from
so that goes go out, have their vapor whatever, but
that'sn't happened with gold Play. You know, here's the saxophonist
for nineteen minutes.

Speaker 4 (20:49):
It's actually because the bands you've talked about lighting up,
there's a video we'll put up on the hits explaining
the technicalities behind the bands and how they make them
work in different zones.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
Bands gets it, you know, it's a.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Little bracelet wristband they do light up more like how
does this technology work? Because some stage is like a
heart shape than that people in the area make with
their light up.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
There's always with everything.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
When they explain it, it's so.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah, you're like, oh, yeah, that makes sense, Like, yeah,
we'll put it on the heads Breakfast Instagram for you.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
But I was, you know, it's a good bit of banter. Jhona.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
You like those sort of topical things to lean into
for banter when you run into people. And I was
sitting down waiting to get a haircut the other day
and just chatting to the guy who you know, had
bit before, and we're talking about stuff, and then I went, oh,
you're going to Coldplay, you know, topical topical reference. And
he was going along on Saturday night and so I
was good and he goes, you know what, I saw
them many many years ago, and he was saying maybe

(21:40):
fifteen years maybe more. And in Edinburgh he was doing
like his oe with his partner and he saw them
when they played to two hundred people, Oh wow wow.
And he's like, now they they don't never light up
wristbands there they.

Speaker 7 (21:54):
Were filling out time with the guitar.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Probably yeah. He was like, yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
The people basically knew it was a friend of a
friend knew the band. And they were like this up
and coming band you just go along the sea. Yeah,
come see my friends. I'll get your name on the door.
And they're like, okay, we'll go along and see this
band called Coldplay and Edinburgh or something.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
So they went in a long stupid name never catch.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
On Tuesday night.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yeah, and then they got there, and then apparently their
name wasn't on the door, and they're like, oh, hey,
someone's such a sort we should have put our name
on the door. As the person who was sort of
taking the names and stuff when oh, give me a second,
sort of ran away.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
And then at that point, be honest, would you have
been like too hard?

Speaker 1 (22:32):
Too hard?

Speaker 2 (22:37):
They came back and they went it's all good and
spoken to the band, you're all good to come through,
and they were great. And then the same person came
up to them later on and said, oh, look, hey, Chris,
who sings in the band, really feels it feels really yeah,
it feels really bad about the fact that there was
a mix up when you came inside. If you want
to afterwards, come have some drinks with the band, come

(22:58):
have a drink afterwards, you know, just to say sorry
the mix up.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
I mean, they still got it to the concert.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
They didn't miss any of the concert, and they were like, oh,
that's lovely, that's lovely.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
I will let you know.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
And then they left afterwards, and now he's like, oh
my goodness, I got and finded for a drink with
Chris Martin and.

Speaker 7 (23:13):
Chris Chris mar for an apology drink.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
I know, how lovely is that. I mean, the nicest
band in the world, right.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Even on stage when you watch him now, he still
seems like that guy.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yeah, the nicest guy in the world.

Speaker 7 (23:25):
Now he's like he's the only not invited people.

Speaker 2 (23:26):

I could have had a drink with Chris Martin. They
would have been.

Speaker 3 (23:38):

asked to have been with some riando cool Chris, Yeah,

to do anything cool, like it was a once in
a lifetime situation. Yeah, OK, let's open this show. We

regret saying no to? It could be an advice, could
be a job, could be a party. That's also an
invite obviously, I'm trying to think of a really better

(24:16):
to think of examples on the spot. I actually I
did get a phone call from a friend who said,
I know you love betting on horses, Megan.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
He was like, what do you do? What do you do?
Put money on this horse?

Okay's the Jonaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Nights of cold Play Friday or Saturday nights, which will
be incredible.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
And as I was saying, before.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
I met someone who I have had a drink with
Chris Martin, the lead singer of Coldplay many many years ago,
where they were just a sort of young, up and
coming band, and he turned it down.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
And now he's like, damn it, I could have had
that drink.

Speaker 4 (25:08):
Speaking of awkward, certainly not being invited back now to
have a drink.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
He's going to the concert, that's right, Yeah, you're not
going to meet them. We're going to text through.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
I almost met Johno another celebrity encounter. Awkwardly said hi

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Aha, apparently it doesn't sound like it's usually him.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
The smiley you know, the laughing emoji cry laughs things.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
So yeah, listen, there's no don't regret anything about not

met some wonderful people yesterday that The Canterbury Show didn't.
We were saying before a guy who was accusing us
of fake news, mainstream media, this information, misinformation, and then
I was I was filming him for some reason that.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Went on too long, yeah, way too long. Yeah, and
he was called my bluff to.

Any kind of awkwardly awkally. So I should have shaken
that guy's hand as well. I regret not giving him.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Oh my goodness. So he actually remembered the numbers from
a dream, wrote.

Speaker 15 (27:16):
Wrote them down. Wow, it did nothing with it.

roughly tech here it could have been millions of millions
of dollars not not falling through.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
Well, thank you so much for your cool Paul, great weekend.
This's an amazing story.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Not amazing for the guy who didn't do the numbers.

Speaker 7 (27:49):
You got to listen to your guess.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Yeah, but every time sometimes you get for every one
of those is like, what did I.

Speaker 3 (27:57):
Play the one time?

Speaker 6 (28:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Why was my dream going to bring me the lineup?

Speaker 6 (28:04):
But see what he didn't follow through the hits that
John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
She's joining us in the studio right now, Kaylee Bell.
She's got a brand new single called Cowboy up now.

Speaker 7 (28:14):
It's around gold to audio.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
It's a cool track and to tell us more about
it to get Kayley, good morning, Great to have you
in studio.

Speaker 18 (28:25):
Good morning, how are we good?

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Nice to have you back in the studio.

Speaker 18 (28:28):
It's so nice to be back with you guys this morning.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
And now are you the song you've just been telling
us before. You've been teasing the song for a while, song.

Speaker 19 (28:35):
For the longest time, like eight months.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
We do a lot of teasing and radio we're like,
we'll tell you the end of the story about the
dog with the chocolate barrens three minutes.

Speaker 19 (28:47):
It's probably like the normal amount of time. So I
really put people on the edge of this sea.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
But it has kind of blow up on tip of
a million views or something.

Speaker 18 (28:55):
It's crazy.

Speaker 19 (28:55):
So I actually, okay, I'm going to tell the story,
wrote the song, and then I just kind of I
teased it, just like literally didn't really think anything of it,
and then it kind of went one of those kind
of viral moments and you're like, oh, God, okay, so
I need to do something with the song. And then
I don't know, I just couldn't get the production right
on it. And the song has actually been produced by
a guy called Travis has made all the Dasher music. Yeah,

(29:18):
so it's been quite a journey, but I feel like
it's been a journey that has landed the song where
it needed to land in terms of production world. And
so it's been quite fun actually just to like take
my time and get it right and now.

Speaker 18 (29:30):
Just like hopefully people will stop abusing me.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
And it has been the hardest thing for a musician,
is like deciding when the song's done, Yeah, you feel
like you can work on it forever.

Speaker 19 (29:39):
It's like, but I guess the same with a chef, right,
like when is this thing cooked and ready to go out?

Speaker 18 (29:44):
Like, I don't know the answer, but at some point
you've got to let.

Speaker 4 (29:47):
It go, and and that point is eight months. Well, actually,
speaking of what you're a very busy, busy artist, and
you probably don't get the time to answer all the
questions and you calm mean as you do though we
have noticed I try, but there's some that suddenly go
way deep that you first one from the site manager.

Speaker 7 (30:07):
I thought we could just answer these on the spot. Yeah, Hey, Kaylee,

Speaker 18 (30:58):
I do a dog?

Speaker 19 (31:01):

but it's kind of gone through a lot of variations
and we've kind of landed. It gets called sunny now
so but Thunder just sunny and it came from the
Oklahoma thunder. So basketball again, my wife always comes back
to the country musical basketball.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
Can you do me a favor and say the sentence
it's the first warm March morning, It's.

Speaker 18 (31:23):
The first warm March.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (31:30):
I actually found that about after three months of songwriting
a Nashville and people just weren't understanding what I was saying.

Speaker 18 (31:35):
I was like, you know what, did you not just
gonna have to change here? And it's not them.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Embraced a little bit of its still.

Speaker 18 (31:42):
Little like because everyone's like, oh, you're from you know,
the South. It must have been growing up.

Speaker 19 (31:46):
I was like, no, no, no, you don't really start
rolling your arms tool about denied and maybe but yeah,
just the songwriting thing. It just got so frustrated with
people not knowing what I was saying.

Speaker 20 (31:54):
That, A, yeah, I get and but when you're in
your head, you're not even over annunciating any clearer how.

Speaker 19 (32:12):
Many syllables bean and dean.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
And also we are heating into Christmas now before we go,
we're playing a game on the show that's the Mariah
Carey Game. Now we're trying to see, trying to see
how long it takes until we hear Mariah Carey's all
I want for Christmas, trying to avoid it. Not because
it's we love the song. I just thought it's iconic.
So do you want to play the game?

Speaker 1 (32:34):
To you?

Speaker 18 (32:34):
I would love to play.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
You have to leave us know when you're out of
the game, that's all. At some stage when you hear it,
it might be scrolling through social.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
Media and.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
You get to listen to it.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
In the game.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
Okay, you're just The only condition is you need to
leave us know when you're out of the game.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Okay, there's no other consequences.

Speaker 19 (32:52):
Still in the game game, we're hanging in there, walking
around with head phones on and not like paying any
attention to anybody.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
The more the supermarket as a sur most people are
getting out on social media. But I'm just like scrolling like,
I don't care and I haven't come across.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
It, and you're just not going to try My kids
in a lot, but just go on and do this.

Speaker 6 (33:12):
They're like, Okay, the head's the John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
Just through reading an article about Donald Trump's diet, a
great diet.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
He's a big McDonald's.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
He loves that most common order he will have for
lunch two Big Max two for their fish, and a
chocolate milkshake every well, not every day, but that's a
common order that he will have.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Dana White, who does you know? Big? Basically, the UFC
is his business.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
He said, he's been you know, five years with him,
so I had a relationship for twenty years, spent a
lot of time with him and never once seen him
drink water.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Never once. He's been on flights for five hours and
things like that.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Diet coaxes jam but he's he's not saying he doesn't
drink water.

Speaker 7 (33:50):
Must be rotting from the inside.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
He's never once seen him drink a glass of water.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
So you apparently listens to Kendrick Lamar's they not like
us on repeat, Donald don't love it? Just reading an
article is that's my favorite song? It's the most American
song ever.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
There we go. Yeah, I don't know how.

Speaker 7 (34:07):
Different opinions on it.

Speaker 4 (34:08):
But now can I just raise an issue that's starting
to affect my life I'm sure yours as well. Too
much waving of things required at technology nowadays. So at
the airport yesterday, have to wave your barcode in front
of the.

Speaker 7 (34:24):
Thing never reads the barcode.

Speaker 4 (34:27):
Then I'm in the toilet of the airport we land
Land yesterday Christian went to the laboratory, and I understand
for hygiene reasons.

Speaker 7 (34:35):
There's no touching of the tap.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
Wave your hands under the tap, and it doesn't the sense,
it doesn't get in. You're like waving like Donald Trump
during a political speech. Then wave your hands under the driver,
wave your hands to get a little towel at love
what even to just using the hands, you know, and
then waving your past to get onto the plane.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
She was like, just just past, wave your card over
the top for a payWave situation your phone or too
much wave.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
I don't like the bathroom and it's always the fan
and it's like beer, beer, beer.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
And the like.

Speaker 4 (35:08):
Once you finally get your hands to recognize the censor of.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
The water, of the tap.

Speaker 7 (35:13):
It drizzles out, you know, and then you have to
try and find anyone boom a complaint.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
Then well yeah, but it's.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Something that we need more and more every day. You
are having to wave your arms out of something.

Speaker 7 (35:25):
I'm always miss firing.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
Yeah, I don't mind doing it, but it's just the
fact that the technology doesn't seem to be like super one.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
For me. It's always like to put your hand, not
work put and then it goes great. It's like it's
set up on prank bige.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Or something something getting on musk on because I don't
know where the sensor isn't I'm not going to just
putting my hand underneath it and that's gonna take it off.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
You are right now. I'm with you on that one.
We're all jumping on board. That's sort of a complaining
radio show. That's what we do.

Guy that hits The John and Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
From the ACC the Alternate Commentary Collective g Lane Mike
langad morning, good morning. Now you do a really cool
thing for November getting on board?

Speaker 8 (41:33):
Yeah, November obviously it's written on the term with November
is It's been around for a while. I'm a big
fan of the most ash. Yeah, I have mine twelve
twelve months.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Yea, you do? Yeah, every every month's November for you?

Speaker 9 (41:44):
Absolutely? Yeah. For men's health and this year we've decided
to do something a little different.

Speaker 8 (41:50):
We did own a nineteen ninety eight Ford falcon but
some people go, I don't know what what are you
talking about? But it's that it's the Ford falcon Ute.
There was only around for a couple of years and
it had the kind of thin little eyes around the front. Yeah,
it was the first Ford falcon Ute after the after
the flat grill, before it went into something a bit

(42:10):
more cooler.

Speaker 7 (42:11):
Everyone want to have a friend whose dad had one
of those?

Speaker 8 (42:13):
Yes, absolutely, ninety eight Ford falcon It's probably deserves a
better owner than the acc And for a while there
we had our faces all over it and disappointingly for
storm purpose where that we filled it up with petrol
was where her mouth was, so every petrol stot with
stuffer a petrol thing down her throat.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
Really really.

Speaker 9 (42:37):
Anyway, we've.

Speaker 8 (42:40):
This month, we've partnered with Auto Trader and with November
and we're going to sell our ute and all the
proceeds are going to go to November and not just.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
The Youth though there's a whole lot more being chucked inside.

Speaker 9 (42:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (42:51):
Absolutely've got in the glove boxes a few treats there's
an iPhone sixteen in the glove box and just left there.

Speaker 7 (42:57):
By start brand new. Half a bag of smokes.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
Yeah, weird pictures on it.

Speaker 9 (43:04):
Yeah, it's under a Hits contrast.

Speaker 1 (43:06):
That's all good.

Speaker 9 (43:08):
Also a Marshall amp beer amp fridge. You know the amps.
They look like a Marshal lamp. Yeah, beer fridge.

Speaker 8 (43:13):
We've got a Makia site radio and thanks to you guys,
we've got one thousand dollars worth of grocery vouchers and
one thousand dollars worth of petrol vouchers that you guys
have chucked in the glove box as well. So the
comes with five thousand dollars worth of goodies in the
glove box and in the tray. All awesome before you
even start betting on it. Auto trader, yep, that's an
auto trader. All you need to do is checks you

(43:35):
to four four eight seven and you'll get a link
directly to it.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
Now, men's health obviously, and not to bring the title down,
but you know the vibes down, but you obviously had
your own men's health battle.

Speaker 14 (43:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (43:45):
I got very rare forumskin cancer in my head five
years ago and I've just had my last surgery.

Speaker 17 (43:50):
This year.

Speaker 8 (43:51):
I've had seven surgeries to remove that and put my
head back together. So that is important because guys, we
always say it, guys are pretty pretty useless at in
on themselves. But it's getting better, like guys are talking more,
particularly around mental health. But you can't forget your physical
health and go in and get an ideal warran of
fitness every year. So July every year, go to the doctor,

(44:12):
get a baseline of your health, and then go every
year so you can see any changes. So it's you've
got to look after You've got to make sure you
look after each other, look after yourself more importantly, and
November is a great month to focus on that because
a lot of the other months, so you know, it's look,
I must have met. Women are way ahead of men
in terms of everything, emotional intelligence, fundraising, you know, breast

(44:34):
cancer awareness.

Speaker 9 (44:36):
Who does not love breasts? You know, the elixir of life.

Speaker 8 (44:40):
You've been your first year of your life attachable one
no one, and so it's quite easy to market that and.

Speaker 9 (44:44):
Fun raise funds.

Speaker 8 (44:45):
But then you look at things like testicular cancer and
prostate cancer. First of all, ones up your butt and
the other one looks like spib super. So that's why
with kind of November, it's about all men's health. You know,
they found a lot of search around prostate cancer, but
also around mental health as well.

Speaker 9 (45:03):
So it's a great month. It's great month to grow
your your lip to pay.

Speaker 3 (45:06):
That's why. That's why they've done the mustache, cause that's
pretty sicky. But can I pitch to you glanees you
have the mustache all the time, why don't you do
like a handlebar, like a chopper or like a full
goaty situation.

Speaker 8 (45:19):
Well, the goaty, that's an interesting one. The goate is
probably more confronting than.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Don't that's your saying that I'm a big backer.

Speaker 4 (45:31):
The gulane really appreciate you coming on and good now
in all honesty, was this classic vehicle becoming too problematic
