With the John and Ben Podcast. Cheers to Dilma making
the world a bitter tea.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Welcome to the podcast for a Tuesday No Fun show
with you Megan today. I enjoyed it today, Yeah, good
time shared a lot like shared about crying in a
very random spot.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Yesterday, crying in the bank, not for the reason you
might think, costill living crisis.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
What's up with this guys? Crying in the bank And
you'll hear about that on the podcast as well. You
brought and it was actually lovely, lovely and I did
enjoy it as well, but very very CD. Can I
say CD the word and when I say CD, it
doesn't mean what you'd normally think, Well, that guy's CD. Well, no,
this particular food was CD. But it was lovely, delicious

(00:40):
and healthy.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
I am in my cottage cheese era making everything from
cottage cheese. But you'll hear that on the show.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
I thought you were just going to be putting lots
of cottage cheese on the on the made it it
was very impressive as well. But next we need to
talk about something that really wound me up this morning,
about these dates that throughout the year and I felt
like they were making it up, but maybe they're not.
That's next on the podcast, All a Blasts to bring

(01:05):
winter roaring back. It's not great use for your Tuesday.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
No, it's not what we need.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
We always talked about. We just said Tuesday was a
bit of a nothing day.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Megan was because Monday you go into it, you've had
a rest over the weekend and you're like, right, let's
hit the week, and then Tuesday you're like, oh.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
No, how since the weekend is too far away. Yeah,
Tuesday one of those days. Well, actually, speaking of the weeks,
and you know, things like that, I've got a calendar. Now,
this shouldn't surprise you that in my household we have
a few Disney things now haven't been purchased by my wife,
been purchased by me. I've got a clock in the
lounge with Vickey mouse hands.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
So surprised that's allowed to be in the line.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, but Amanda's just like waiting for the day it
breaks down or falls off, something like that, you know.
And there's a few other Disney things, but bits and
pieces around the house. Because I love Disney. My wife
will tolerate it. And that's about it. And I've got
a Disney calendar, which is in our little bathroom. So
I bought it in right now, and I haven't really
looked too closely yet it other than just looking at
the days of the week. Normally it's a Mickey Mouse calendar. Yeh,

(02:02):
Disney twenty twenty four calendar. But I look, I just
started looking closely at the months and some of the
days because there's very small print on there, and it
started to kind of wind me up this morning. Now,
obviously there's New Year's Day, this days, you know of
Valentine's Day. But then I'm going to read some of them.
I've written them down. So January twenty second, hot source day, now, okay,

(02:23):
January twenty fourth, compliment day. I'm like, these can get
at if they've made these up. There's opposite day on
January twenty fifth, backwards day and January first? Do they
make these up? Napping Day March o live. So I
wanted you could you google some of these and see
if their actual things. So napping Day is March.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Eleventh, Napping Day, well, it is March tenth here, maybe that's.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Okay, We're pajamas to work day April sixteenth. No, it
feels like that's a that's a gag. Then I turn
up to work and be like, hey, guys, I'm here,
and then we're'll be like, what are you doing?

Speaker 3 (02:54):
April sixteenth, we're pajamas to work day? Is it?

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Is it a thing? April thirtieth Honesty Day? No, I
don't need that.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Honesty Day is April thirtieth, actual days?

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Okay, it exists, surely not this one. May third, No
Pants Day?

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Oh well, good luck.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
I mean Donald Dark's pushing for that one the Disney calendar.
But everyone else is like, what day did you say?
May the third, No Pants Day?

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Yeah, it's a legit saying.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
There's a capslock day John all the time. Yeah, yeah,
that's John. Know's every email we ever since that. October
twenty second, Yeah, oh my godness and November fourth, use
your common sense day. Daughter was born on caps lock Day.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
She's here.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
It was like shop shouting at me. You're like that
it's what you need to do on the day. Oh
so I take it all back. Mickey Mouse, the Mickey
Mouse calendar.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Why is there a day for capslock? Why is there
a day for no pans?

Speaker 2 (03:52):
What does it say under the description of Capslock Day?
Does it say what to Day.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Is a bizarre yet ironic occasion aimed at mocking cereal
use of capital letters. So it's kind of John O's day.

Speaker 2 (04:03):

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Is it a snail, a shark or a crocodile?

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Okay, sharks have.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Three, like three layers, don't they three lots?

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Really? You're surprisingly, sir. It's so surprised that you've got
some brains.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
I think the crocodile was just.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
The brains a value.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
I believe sharks have three rows of teeth. Really, wouldn't
that be Snail's a trick question, do they?

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
The heits that John and Ben podcast, and.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
We're in the middle of the New zealanderial quests. We're
trying to get ten out of ten this morning, Megan,

We've got three out of three and we're up to
question four.

Once we get one wrong, we're going to stop. Okay,
And the question producer Elie was the.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
Question was which animal has the most teeth? Is it snails,
shark or crocodile?

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Meghan, you came through with some great knowledge that sharks
had like three sets of teeth.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
Three rows of teeth, I think, I think, But then
why is snail in there?

Speaker 2 (07:53):
And a lot of texts come through four four eight
seven this morning for snail. Someone said snails have I
have to twenty thousand teeth. I may have been told
lies though, And they did the little emoji with the
switch stripping down the heads. So maybe the answer for
the creature the most teeth is snail. Snails have fourteen
thousand teeth. So a lot of chicks through for snail teeth?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Are they because it's like they're just it's slimy, and
you put it on your hand and it feels like slime.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Like Grandad in the retirement ry, the false teeth out.
You know, it feels like that sort of thing, you know. Yeah,
but are we going to go with feel? I feel
like we do? I know, I know your shark fact
was great, but I feel like everyone's saying snail. So
that's lock and snail, locking and snail. That is correct,

Crane crane obviously.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, and then the end of whatever the first one
was was brain stuff.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah. Yeah, you sounded really smart before. Now when you
say brain stuff, you don't sound quite as smart. I

been getting into cottage cheese a lot lately.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
So a lot of you have an algorithm on social media, right,
and some people's that's dogs. Some people like baby's mine
has turned into making everything out of cottage cheese.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
And are you're making this again? By scratch? Yeah, you're
making your own cottage cheese.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
No, no, no no, I'm not making my cottage cheese. I'm
buying tubs and from the supermarket. But I have found
recipes for cheesecakes, for fudge, for chocolate moose like you
can make anything out of cottage cheese. And my husband
is like, please don't please stop making stuff out of
cottage cheese.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
I can't remember the last time I had it. I
do remember my mama's probably like the nineties or whatever,
really getting into it. I think it was some sort
of weight watches cottage cheese on rie beta crackets carrots
and stuff into it, and I was like, I'd just
rather have the carrot without the cottage cheese. Like, yeah,
but here's my thing.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
It's not it's not that great on its own, but
you can make all kinds of things. So my favorite thing,
which I've made a few times and I have brought
in for you to try, honest opinions only, is my
cottage cheese bread.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
So you've made this bread? Yeah, this is a sickond
or third time I made it. Producer Ali and producer Gracie.
We're in the right now because if we're going to die,
we all again. That's we made on the show.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
Because my husband's always like, please don't do this anymore.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
It actually looks good. The bread looks really good. It
doesn't quite impress the breed has made what from cottage
cheese it is.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
It's got eggs, cottage cheese and baking powder and it's
just a heap of seeds.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
I thought you were going to be like putting it
on top of the breed.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Oh no, no, no, it's got the cottage cheese in it.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Have you got a bread maker, or is the sun
in the oven? It's done in the oven. You guys
are very easy bread. Just to brag about how you can, right,
it doesn't really good. We'll put a poo at the
hats breakfast on our Instagram as well.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Okay, so I buttered the pieces. You've each got a piece.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
You haven't got a piece. Of radio pranks they've been
very suspicious or were at these days on the heads.
We're just trying something that someone else thinks is delightful.
You know what.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Is this?

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Because my husband's like, do not make any more cottage
cheese stuff?

Speaker 2 (13:03):
So Andrew's not really a fan of this, not a.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Huge fan and not a huge fan of like the
cheesecake made of cottage cheese.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
A bite right now.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
It has been toasted and like vogels and stuff, it
takes about fifteen minutes in the toaster, and it.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Has been sitting here a little bit cold for my age.
It's not warming.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
I did toast it a while ago, just so you know,
we're not tasting it.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
It's heat. No, you know, no, I know, Alie, you're
like your toast after the show each.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Day has a white bread with peanut butter.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
And the peanut butter to just your stock standard peanut
but nothing fancy. Yeah, so what are you thinking right now?

Speaker 3 (13:40):
Doesn't get a pass.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
It's very grainy. It's like.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Odd guys, but it's nice.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
It's not it's moist. Is that what it does? The
cottage cheese kIPS a moist? Yeah? Okay.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
I really felt like there was going to be more
of a glowing review and producing Grace is like many. Fine,
I'll put the recipe on our Instagram.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
You try yourself, but birds would love it. There's a
lot of lu Okay.

of the family. You not keep the peace in the family.

like are you flirting with me? You sitting there and
I was like, oh, jez If I turn up and
then and the family like I'm not going and it's
just me, you'd be like, oh, he's definitely flirting with me.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yeah, Or you don't tell them and they find out
later that you need to go and see Yeah, it's
no good way of doing it.

Speaker 5 (15:42):
You know what, because we have such beautiful people, we
need to keep the peace in both of families. Then
you did the right thing.

Meghan Finland.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
Vegas better than where we're going into the heads that
johnaan Ben podcast in the middle.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
Of school holidays at the moment yesterday we tried something
very risky before seven.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
O'clock, Megan, was a terrible idea to wake up your wife,
who then had to wake up your daughter. Neither were
happy about her.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
I had to call a man and my wife because
I said the night before, I said, oh hey, I'm
going to call to I'll call you in the morning.
I said, oh yeah, okay, And then when she got
the call, she sounded very tired. And it wasn't even
the joke it was meant to be on here. It
was to wake up my teenage daughter. C you know
who's on holiday right now. We're like, let's wake her up.
And here's what happened. We woke her up live on
the radio.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
What's on the podcast this week? Here's your plug?

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Oh yeah, who's the guest we had Dame Lisa character
last week? Didn't we on the win? I grew up podcast?
That was good. What was your favorite thing about that chat?

Speaker 10 (23:46):
Middle?

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yeah, So that was just before seven o'clock yesterday morning.
And then after the show, we were doing some more
work you to hear it at the radio station, and
I got a message from my daughter, very very confused,
and so I thought we should call it. So here's
what happened when we called it back yesterday. Hello, he Now,
you just you just said a question. I just thought

(24:10):
I should get Megan on here as well. What was
your question you wanted to ask did you call me
this morning?

Speaker 3 (24:16):
Now? What that?

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Megan?

Speaker 8 (24:19):
I just woke up.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
I was just like, I feel like I heard your voices.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Maybe you're listening to the radio subconsciously. Are you dreaming
about it here?

Speaker 8 (24:31):
I just woke up and I just just remembered, like
I don't.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
Know was it a good dreamer or a bad dream?

Speaker 5 (24:39):
I don't I don't mean dreaming. I just remember, like
just be like really tired and like, do you mean
you guys asked me a bunch of questions.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Yeah, you don't remember? That might jogging memory my eyes?
What's on the podcast this week? Here's your plug?

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Yeah, who's the guest? Was it like I'm dying? You
were great chat? To be honest, you weren't great chat.
I've had a bitter chat for him. You're a lot
better on the podcast than we do to get that,
but yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
Yeah, that was your time to plug the podcast. And
you're like, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
I was like Dame Lisa Carrington was on last week?
What do you remember? And you're like middles and that
was yeah, well, hey, it's all on you. You never know
where we could be calling.

Speaker 8 (25:27):
Well, don't call me.

Speaker 3 (25:30):
Again, so you know, who your dad is like, you
should be used to the Shenanigans now.

Speaker 8 (25:35):
Yeah, but I was hoping that you might have called
me in an appropriate.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
And we're not going to call you after t in
the show's finest by then all right, I have a
great day.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Ben podcast because someone en.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
If I'm in the right or not. We have some shows,
like I imagine most couples, if you're listening right now,
you've got some shows that you like to watch by yourself,
and other shows that become the combined show.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
In Paris, this my solo show and we're watching them
in India's what is it?

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Monsters on the supposed to be really good.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
It is, but there's a lot of courtroom scenes, which I'm.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Like, well, yeah, because we get up early in the
morning and probably you do right now listening as well.
And so my wife and I was, you know, often
we'll go to bed and watch something on you know,
we're watching on Netflix or Disney Plus or something like that.
We'll find a show. Now I'm actually quite stoked. I
kind of got it was a show that I was
watching I thought was my show, and then she kind
of got into it. I like when they're happy to

(26:32):
talk to this is exciting. I didn't think. Why didn't think?
And it was the Receiver, the the NFL, the Football show.
She kind of got into that, I know, And so now,
how do you watch that? I watched it a bit
and like, I go watch it like on what on Netflix?
On Netflix, it's like different algorithms, babes. I've seen that
and it's it's quite good. The personalities in American football
are pretty incredible. And so I watched it. I thought

(26:55):
my wife won't be interested, but she actually found it
quite interesting. But the other night she's like, you have
watched We have watched the same episode like seven times.
Now this you keep falling asleep in the same episode.
I'm like, I'm trying. I'm trying because I keep going
back to the place I remember, yeah, on the Combined show,
and she's like, no, you know it's like and so

(27:15):
yesterday I went to go back to that and she's like,
oh no, I'm here, I'm ahead of that. And I'm
like what. She's like, well, you fell asleep the other night,
and I just I carry it on. I was like
I couldn't wait for you any longer. So four four
eight seven, Like, do you have to wait for the
other person, not necessarily even if they fall asleep, Like,
can you watch it without that person? Or is that
your show? And then you've got to stop it and

(27:36):
watch something else.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
It defeats the purpose of having a show together if
one person is going to get impatience. I thought, that's
why you have your solo shows. Yeah, so if you'd
gone to sleep, she can turn that off and watch shows.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Yeah, that's what I thought as well. But she's like, well, no,
I'm into this, Why should I wait for you? So
four four eight seven on the text? Yes, so for
you right now? It is the Mindia Show, is it?

Speaker 1 (27:58):
So?

Speaker 3 (27:58):
I have fallen asleep a lot, But yeah on Friday
night Fridays because you've had a whole week of getting
up early. And so we watched it and I just
it was only ten minutes and I heard this smash
on the space bar. We were watching on my laptop
and I woke up and he was like, well, ten
minutes and we might as well go to bid.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
Them or was this Andrew Billee past aggressive vide.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
He's like, you don't lie down, you're getting comfortable set up,
and so you don't go to sleep.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
But I just want to like snuggle, and he's like,
don't snuggle.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
It set up, But I don't think he's got a
solo show at the moment.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
I did one, You're like, it was probably a couple
of years ago that I got quite engrossed into a
show that we're watching a man at night and she
wasn't home. I think she was away, and I was like,
I'm just going to watch it. I'm just going to
watch a little bit more because I couldn't I needed
to know. And then I was like, oh god, I
can't tell her. And I felt like it was like
almost like a cheating situation. And then when she came back,
we watched the episode and I had to lie. I

(28:53):
had to do like an acting job of going, oh,
this is the spot, we're up to it. Oh my goodness,
how did this happen?

Speaker 3 (28:58):
Have you even done a thing where like you're like, oh,
I reckon, he's the bad guy.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
I could have look really smart.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
How did you call that? The John and Ben podcast?

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Yeah, two a year. Right, billboards are back around the place.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
One of them are very controversial.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
I mean I guess that was the idea behind them, right, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
No, I wondered how they would go in the day
and age.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Well, not to be controversial, but to poke fund and
ever laugh and not always be so pc. I mean
there's probably ones they probably can't go as far as
they used to go.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
Yeah, but you know, I've seen one that made me.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Go, oh, really okay. There was one on the way
to work this morning which was just like they'd never
work in twenty twenty four or something, and then it
was like, yeah, right, so that was quite quite a
nice little everyone's talking about that exactly. Yeah, well done
for to a huge brand, particularly around the Wide Upper
where I'm from. You know, people love their toy there today. Mang,

(29:52):
you know where it was Brute. I don't think it
is still there, Yeah no, but I think it's still
got like a tourist shop and stuff. And hit long
TOI Andcually speaking about avertising, he went to the bank
yesterday and had to wait in the queue, And at
the alien Zer bank they had the screens playing ads
while you're waiting, so you're just kind of watching that.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
I don't know the last time I physically went to
a bank.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
To be honest, I don't know either, but I was
like waiting twenty. Yeah, there was, but there was quite
a lot of people in the bank, Like, there was
quite quite a long que there's obviously people liken't me
there to go into the bank. And the ad played.
It was the guy who you know, his dad was
like an Indian cricket supporter and then he was a
black cap you know, you were ones you've seen on TV,
and he loved New Zealand and he wanted to play

(30:32):
for New Zealand, you know. And then finally there's that
wonderful moment at the end of the ad. So I
got quite gross standing there in the queue where the
dad who's an Indian cricket supporter his son makes the
team for New Zealand and he finally comes out and
he's like wearing a black CAP's top and it's quite emotional.
He's like look and it's like and I was like
and I started getting like teary eyed in the bank.

(30:53):
Just as I got to the front of the counter.
The lady's like, you're up next, and I'm like, I
having to pull myself together, and I'm like, why am
I going to so emotional? Have you not seen that
ad before? I had seen the air before that's the thing.
I don't know why. I've seen the ad probably countless times,
but I got quite emotional at the backstory. Maybe I
was in the bank and thinking about high interest rates
or something.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
You were in capable audience, You're concentrating, thinking about what
you're about.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
To deal with. Kind of felt like, I don't know,
if you ever like watch a movie on a plane
from time to time.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
No, that's the thing, actually a thing the altitude affix you.
I swear because I've cried so much, and then you
watch it again on land and you're like, oh, what.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
Was Yeah, yeah, it was it.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
It feels like it's a swear, the altitude, because the
altitude to fix you when you have alcohol, right, yeah,
it's like one on the ground is with two in
the sky or something like that.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
So then the same thing in the bank, and I wonder,
and I wonder as well, you know, because it's quite
enclosed you're watching it. It's right in your ears, you know.
I don't know, but it feels like that. And now
the bank come like Jesus, I've cried.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
What did the talis say when you got to it?

Speaker 2 (31:57):
Well, like one of those situations where I think she
knew something was going on, but didn't know what I mean.
She probably thought I was had no ide e was
crying at the a in thead behind her, that those
guys have bad days here at the bank. Things aren't
going well financially, and I'm crying at the head.

Speaker 1 (32:16):

I was like, do I go into Titanga and do
I see Danieller? And then I was like, was it
a bit weird if I'm like, hey, family, we need
to go see Danieller?

of the family. You not keep the peace in the family.

like are you flirting with me? You're sitting there. I
was like, oh jeez. If I turn up and then
and the family like I'm not going and it's just me,
you'd be like, oh, he's definitely flirting with me.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Yeah, Or you don't tell them and they find out
later that you need to go and see.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
Yeah, it's no good way of doing it.

Speaker 5 (33:40):
You know what, because we've such beautiful people. We need
to keep the peace in both of families. Then you

were going to. Yeah, so they were actually go quite
well in those conditions.

Speaker 8 (38:50):
I've been told it could be as low as minus thirty,
a heighth of minus fifteene high of minus fifteen.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
Gee, that looks incredible. That whole center village in Finland
looks amazing.

Speaker 8 (39:04):
Is it's amazing? And finally getting over there. We had
an exchange student. She came to New Zealand when she
was seventeen and stayed with us for years and she's
been she's now forty five and it's now my turn
to go over there. I'm a lot older than that
to go over there and she's going to replay the

(39:25):
visit and show so near.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
Rah, that's awesome. All right, Well you can take a
pair of our socks over there.

Speaker 8 (39:31):
Awesome. I'll definitely take a photo with.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
The norm night, any of it, the village, anything, anything,
a fighter with our socks will be incredible.

Speaker 8 (39:40):
Okay, definitely, let's go one more.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
Just quickly and Megan.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
All right, Kira, good morning? Where would you take our socks?

Speaker 9 (39:47):
Morning? Well, we're actually also going to Las Vegas, but
I'm hoping they're going to bring luck to the warriors.
Watch the warriors.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Oh, I know, this is this is my dream to
go to the warriors of Las Vegas. You're getting to
do that now. This is probably as close as I'm
going to get as taking the socks.

Speaker 3 (40:05):
Socks can go.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Okay, we'll give it. We'll give for peers to you,
but you have to promise me that one of the
socks you weir to the game is the ben one.
All right, just so I can feel like I was there. Now,
don't do it. Just mean that's a good gag if
you do. All right, how cool was that? Who's going
over with you?

Speaker 9 (40:22):
My husband and the two teenagers.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
That would be Have you been to Las Vegas before?

Speaker 9 (40:29):
No?

Speaker 8 (40:29):
No, I haven't, So.

Speaker 9 (40:30):
It's pretty exciting.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
What a time to go. Oh well, if we do
get over there, which we probably won't, we'll have to
hang out. But that sounds incredible. We're going to send
you our socks.

Speaker 9 (40:39):
Awesome. Thanks guys, keep this.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Telling three four four eight seven. Where would you take
our socks? And we're pretty much down to the last
couple of peers, but that I was impressed by those places,
Megan Finland, Vegas better than where we're going into that
johnaan Ben podcast, The Poll of Blast coming back to
New Zealand. I know you're already on the summer train Mega.

Speaker 3 (40:59):
And daylight so it s lighter in the evening, but
then springs always like leads into a false sense of security.

Speaker 2 (41:06):
Yeah, so a little bit of a rough weather over
the next couple of days for school holidays. Now my
kid's a little bit older than yours and we've got
into this whole life three sixty or you know where
you're Basically it's like a tracking app.

Speaker 3 (41:18):
Yeah, so you can keep tabs on everyone is at
all times and little pictures on a map.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
Yeah, and it says quite handy when the kids you
know by you know where they're at school, if they've
gone something like that, they're on the bus, things like that.
But for a while I resisted going on to it.
I don't know why. I just was like, what are
you hiding? So I just felt like what I was like,
the point of it's not to track me, right, No
one's worried about where I'm going. It's more about what's
tracking where the kids are going and stuff.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
I know.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
But the resistance is weird.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
So I was like, all right, I'll go on the app.
I've already been caught out once because I came home
from the gym and I had a little ten minutes
just sitting in the car just to get some thoughts.
Have you done a Drivewe yeah, oh god, I do
those all the time. And my wife's like, oh, I've
been home for about but no, and she's like, yeah,
it popped up on the Life three sixty. So it's
already caught me out once before. But over not this weekend,

(42:09):
but the weekend before both my daughters were away. One
was at musical theater camp, the other was on a sleepover.
And you know, we had a night out without the kids. Yes,
so man and my wife and I we went to
a friend's place and the other friends invited us out
and we're like, oh, this is this is nice. We
don't have any set time we need to be home.

Speaker 3 (42:26):
Yeah, amazing.

Speaker 2 (42:28):
So we got home probably closer to midnight, you know,
which is.

Speaker 3 (42:31):
You know, let's big for us because we get up
really early, and yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
Kind of late. But then I get a message from
my daughter Indy the next morning, a screenshot of my
life three sixty and it's just like being arrived home
eleven fifty seven, and all she wrote was exposed like
I've been. I'm like, what, ex where were you? She's
not even at home and she wants to know already.

(42:58):
So this is my problem. I'm like, why I need
to be trained? How comfortable you with if Andrew knows
everywhere you're going? I'm not again, I'm not thinking that
anything dodgy is going on. No, me and my best
friend had it, so every time.

Speaker 3 (43:11):
I drive her work, she would be like, why are
you at my work? But me and my husband never
had it, and I was kind of okay with that
for the same reason. So if I like lingered at
home and did the driveway set, or you know, like
if I was maybe at the mall and I shouldn't
have been, which tends to heaven, you know, like if
I was anywhere not like cheating or anything, but anywhere

(43:33):
that I shouldn't be for longer than I should.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
You want people knowing about it. The driveway set is
one of my favorite sets. And now I can't do
the driveway set. You can get home and you're like
the moment, just a moment, gave my thoughts. Yeah, and
now I've been exposed by my family the heads.

Speaker 1 (43:50):
That johnaan Ben podcast.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
So I bought something at home and it's been in
the house for say three or four days, in the lounge, okay,
And I thought by now my wife would have noticed it.
I would have got a reaction. She doesn't seen it anything,
doesn't see it anything. And I do think that if
she'd seen it, she would have got a reaction.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
So I'm trying not to get too into these Funco
pop vinyl you know, the little miniature figurines of famous people. Yeah,
I've got a few of them at home. I really
could get my obsession for them really could get out
of hand. So I've tried to rain it down. But
I've got a few basketballers. I've got a Dwayne the
Rock Johnson one. I've got a Bart Simpson one. And

(44:30):
I've got a little shelf in the lounge, one shelf
that I'm allowed to keep my stuff on. Okay, sometimes
it spreads out over a couple of shells, but that's
the conversation for another day. And I saw online a
Travis Kelsey one, Travis Kelcey funko.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Pop, like, I'm kind of keen to see what this
looks like.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
And I and I thought that, you know, he's just
a little figurine. He's got a little helmet, He's standing
on a little bit of grass. And there I'm showing
a video right now.

Speaker 3 (44:55):
Take them out of the box.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
I do take and they're not collected editions if you do.
But I've just I've done it now. So I've got
my little collection of funko pop for greens. And I
was taking a little video each day. Day one, Travis
Kelcey's in the house. Put him on the shelf, waiting
for my wife's reaction. Nothing happened. Day two, nothing happened.
Here's day three and I'm like, well, it hasn't happened.
It hasn't happened so far, she hasn't noticed. Okay, but

(45:16):
should we call her? We could call her, the problem
being I'm not home. It'll probably end up in the bit.
Do you think she would be upset? Well, a little bit.
She'd be like, oh, you've got to stop. You've got
to rein it in. How much are they worth out
of They're only around about twenty five dollars, not crazy
amount of it. It's not like I've spinned thousands on it.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
No, but when you've got a whole shelf looking at you,
it's hundreds of dollars.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
And I thought, you know in Trevis Kelcey, I know
you're a big fan of Trevis Kelcey. Are coming around
to him slowly? Yeah, I almost bought it for you,
but I thought, well, and maybe I could say it
was for Megan. If she's not happy, all right, it's
call her. Okay, Hello, I mean sinking, Hey, how you doing?

(46:07):
You're right, it's morning means here as well? Now, Oh no,
you sound happy and cheery, and this is probably not
going to end with you being happy and cheery. Because
I wondered if you noticed something in the lounge that's
been there for a few days.

Speaker 3 (46:23):
Oh God, don't know why you're pointing it out.

Speaker 2 (46:30):
No, I shouldn't have. I thought it'd be a funny
radio But what actually is to say? Before I've been
filming it? Is that new what's that? Is it?

Speaker 8 (46:39):
That little plastic things?

Speaker 2 (46:42):
What's the doplastic thing?

Speaker 10 (46:44):
Kelse player? The NFL player.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
There, the NFL player. Oh yeah, kel I got a
Sir Travis Kelcey pop funko pop a decision. I haven't
nicely to me going to be raining it in, But
I just saw this one when I was there. Well,
I was buying you some birthday presents last week and

(47:10):
then I saw that and I was like, oh, I
could get this for me, And it arrived at the.

Speaker 5 (47:13):
Same time now for birthday prison as well.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
So what are the chances that will be in the
recycling when I get home.

Speaker 5 (47:23):
No, I'm going to hide it somewhere.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
You find that you get to keep it. Meghan's always
not sure about the relationship between Trevis Kelsey and Taylor
Swift in real life, but hey, you know, if.

Speaker 3 (47:37):
He proposes to her, then you can have it on
the shelf. Then it comes out of hiding.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
All right, really, I'm really invested in their relationship. All right, Amanda,
We'll lovely to talk to you.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
That John and Ben podcast very exciting. Then, never have
you ever tour on the heads.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
We are heading around the country as a show, and
we want to make some people's address big or small
come true. Things that they've never done and they're prepared
to do.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Can be small, Like producer Grace has never had tomato sauce.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
And that's not a dream of heirs to try it,
as much as we keep saying, just try some tomato sauce.
How hard can it be to your finger? You drink
like you're not allergic, nothing's going to happen. You've drank
tomato juice. It feels like next we'll get to that
Grace maybe dipping her fingers literally into tomato sauce. Next week,
we'll see. But right now we've got Allie joins us is.

(48:29):
That's Ken Okim? Sorry, Good morning, Kim, morning time. How
you doing now? You've requested something potentially next week that
you want to do for the first time.

Speaker 10 (48:41):
I've never had a tattoo. I've been contemplating it for years.
I turned fifty this year and a couple of years ago,
my dad passed away, and this tattoo is like sort
of a I'm remembrance of him to have a nickname
for me. He used to call me love bug, and

(49:03):
so I've got this design of a ladybug that's sort
of with a heart on it in my mind. And
I've never had a gun, and my bestie has been
nagging me to do it. She's she's got a couple
of tacks and she's like, come on, you've got to
do it. You've got to do and I've never had one.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
I feel like you've turned fifty. You know, it's a milestone.

Speaker 2 (49:24):
This is your moment. Do you know whereabouts on your
body you'd get it?

Speaker 5 (49:28):
Kim on my wrist?

Speaker 2 (49:30):
Okay, I thought you might say four head or something.
Then I would be like wanting to talk to you
other because coming from someone that's got some blood tattoos
that I really say great to once I have got some,
hang on, there's some that I really like, go meaningful
and I love, and then some other ones that I'm like, eh,
I probably wouldn't get that again. So I like and
hearing your lovely story and the reasons behind it, I

(49:51):
feel like, one hundred percent you won't regret this because
it's got so much meaning towards it.

Speaker 10 (49:56):
It does have a lot of means to me.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Yeah, on her wrist, the pain level like on that
someone's got a lot of it's it's ok it's funny.
And sometimes the areas that you think are going to
be fine, it's you know, it's a little bit sensitive,
but that's okay. Okay, I feel like you can handle.
Would you like us to be there? Could we make
this happen next week?

Speaker 10 (50:16):
Oh my goodness, I'm sure. Could I bring my best
with Yeah, he's the one that's been encouraging me to
get this done.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Absolutely, Like if we organized somewhere, not some sort of
back out allie dingy, sort of like a proper legitimat
have you.

Speaker 8 (50:32):
Been or not?

Speaker 10 (50:32):
John especially, I trust me.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
Yeah, No, we're not going to be doing it or
anything like that, like a proper legitimate person who knows
exactly what they're doing. Would you do it next week?

Speaker 10 (50:44):
Yes, it happen.

Speaker 2 (50:46):
Make it happen.

Speaker 3 (50:47):
Get this tastoo a tribute to your dad and your
friend can be there.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
Let's organize it.

Speaker 10 (50:54):
Thanks guys, that's so special.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
It's very special if we are part of that. Next week,
we'll get Elie to talk to you behind the scenes
and see if we can make that happen. But thank
you so much for being involved.

Speaker 10 (51:05):
Thanks guys, thanks for Tom, thanks for selecting me.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
That's all right, Hey, that's very cool. So that's how
it can work next week. But right now, Meghan, you
want to know if people can stump us things that
we've never done.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
You're asking people to come up with things that they've
never done, and we are on tour next week, so
maybe along the way we should be doing things that
we've never done, Like have.

Speaker 2 (51:21):
You ever given a tattoo?

Speaker 1 (51:22):
No?

Speaker 2 (51:23):
Well no not maybe not come maybe me maybe I'm
me definitely do that.

Speaker 3 (51:29):
But obviously we've been around for a while. We work
in a weird industry where you end up doing lots.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
Of silly things.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
The Heads that John and Ben podcast on tour next
week with John O. They have you ever tour on
the Heads?

Speaker 2 (51:42):
Yeah, celebrating, But we made you take a bus for
the first time a couple of weeks ago, and in
the end you really enjoyed it, and we thought, why
not travel around the country help some people achieve some things,
stick some items off their bucket list, big or small,
and do things for the first time.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
There might just be things you've just never gotten around
to doing that everyone else does all the time, like
going on a bus. Yeah, but in our career has
been we have been around for a while, and in
TV and radio you end up doing silly things, lots
of lots of stunts and lots of things. So I
thought it would be interesting to see if people could
find things that we haven't done, and maybe we could
do them along.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
The road as well. Lots of texts coming through and
we've got a few calls to get to clear. Good morning,
how are you? That's good?

Speaker 3 (52:24):
Do you have something as it specifically for Ben or
myself that you want to ask?

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Ok yeah, okay, what is it?

Speaker 10 (52:33):
Have you bathed and milk before?

Speaker 2 (52:36):
Bathed in milk before?

Speaker 3 (52:38):
Clear?

Speaker 2 (52:38):
Patra I'm trying to think of all the random things
I've done. A milk run when I had to drink
a litter of milk every kilometer and that ended just
in projectile stuff. But no, I don't think I've ever
bathed in milk. Have you done this before? I have
years ago? Okay, whereabouts in the country, you located.

Speaker 5 (52:59):
It and total at the time, and this is she
did it for for the radio.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
It's not something people do like. It's like, this is
a stupid radio thing. Again, but how did you do it?
But I've done it, You've done it.

Speaker 3 (53:14):
You have But that's like what Cleopatra used to do, right, Like,
how did you feel at the end of it?

Speaker 2 (53:18):
How was your skin?

Speaker 9 (53:20):
It's pretty griss grab milk, but I just grabed milk
powder because I'm a cheap scale and at all coregulated and.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Stuff too. Yeah, okay, I think that's what Clear Petra did.
Milky Clear Petri didn't milk. Okay, Well, that's something we
could be doing next week, Megan.

Speaker 3 (53:40):
Maybe would be quite expensive to fillop a bath of
milk these days.

Speaker 2 (53:43):
That's a go on. Haven't done that before? We'll find
your price.

Speaker 3 (53:45):
You've found, you found? Something isn't done? Clear, I've got
some hell pizza for you.

Speaker 2 (53:50):
Eb sailing on the text of cells I have ab sailled.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
Yeah before, that's quite scary me again, you do you
have something that you want to ask? Being all myself,
it was ever done, Ben?

Speaker 2 (54:03):
You can't about me like it more about me. We're
talking about Megan, what is it.

Speaker 9 (54:08):
I remember a few years ago at a festival, JOHNO
either tattooed.

Speaker 8 (54:14):
You on the bat or you tattooed JOHNO on the butt.
I cannot remember.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
John tattooed me on the butt.

Speaker 5 (54:20):
Yeah, yes, yeah, so now you can turn around and
tattoo edi have You're.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
Right, I've never tantoed JOHNO on the butt.

Speaker 3 (54:26):
A special relationship and.

Speaker 2 (54:29):
It's definitely John didn't even spoiled his name like the
inners backwards too or something, and it.

Speaker 6 (54:35):
Was so funny.

Speaker 8 (54:36):
And then you were like, oh, I can't get this
removed or something, and then I think you ended up
getting it removed.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
I can't remember what I did is I booked him
to get removed and then they found out about it,
and then he came in there and secretly put more
on my backside.

Speaker 8 (54:48):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he did.

Speaker 2 (54:49):
A sick man. Yeah yeah, it's all over there as well.
It's all again.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
Well we are, as we heard before, we're taking Kem
to the tattoo parlor potentially, so.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
We'll be there happening next week as well. We appreciate
we'll find a prize for you as well. Driven a
truck mean I.

Speaker 3 (55:04):
Have a parallel parked an eighteen wheeler truck before again
that was for radio Melanie.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
Last one. Do you have something for us? Is it
for me or being for.

Speaker 3 (55:14):
Both of you?

Speaker 5 (55:15):
Have any of you?

Speaker 8 (55:17):
Either of you ever ridden a horse on the beach.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
I think I have a paddokai up north. I've done that. Yeah,
the horse checking through there I have. Yeah, it's beautiful.
Not on the beach.

Speaker 3 (55:30):
It sounds delightful. I love riding horses, but I've never
done one.

Speaker 2 (55:33):
On the beach.

Speaker 9 (55:34):
Well, we have a fantastic beach down here at Medea
Closet you can go for a ride on.

Speaker 2 (55:39):
Always feel like at any stage the horses, you know,
like if I like Megan, it's volatile relationship. At any
stage you can get rid of me the horse and
you're being all anxious and weary. Just relaxed, just relax
I'm not a relaxed person.

Speaker 9 (55:56):
No, I've got horses, and it doesn't matter what sort
of how what sort of a riding out.

Speaker 8 (56:01):
I'll just keep on walking and just keep on going.

Speaker 2 (56:03):
Okay, Okay, it sounds like a fun thing we could
be doing as well. We appreciate as well. But coming
through being have you ever done a cheerleading fly.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
They chuck you in the air. I've cheerleaded before for
random things. Not a good cheerleader as well, donated blood.
I have done that.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
I always mean to and I will, but I haven't
done it yet.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
Someone said, have you been naked on a glacier? No,
I think you've nailed it. Nothing I've never done. I
definitely haven't. I don't have a huge desire to do
that as well, not of jumping out of planes, which
is not something that I'm that keen on, to be honest.
Done a lot of crazy stuff before

Speaker 3 (56:41):
But that jumped off a bridge attached to a rope,
but not jumped off out of a plane.
